Oh, Cody, Marty and Page are the handsome devils of the Bullet Club

#BROKEN Hasney 01-27-2018 05:23 AM

Cody just started saying that Kenny Omega is the leader of the Bullet Club. God bless the United States of America and god bless Kenny Omega.

Hahaha Naito just spat at Don't missed and hit the lady behind him

#BROKEN Hasney 01-27-2018 05:46 AM

Good way to put some story into Naito V Yoshi-Hashi. Since people were asking why have that match, Naito also thinks he's below him and ignores him even attacking him, Yoshi Hashi snaps and beats Naito up and even spits on him.

Very much a one match show, but fuck, what a goddamn match it was.

Now go heal up for the love of god Tanahashi. And yay, Suzuki IC!

IC title match winners promo

SPOILER: show
"Hey Tanahashi, what were you saying before the match? You wanted me to bring some fun to this match? Don't make me laugh, you bastard. You may have created a miracle, saving New Japan from going out of business, but that miracle will never happen again. If you ever find strength to stand up again, I'll be there to break you again. You'd better be prepared for that. The only thing that matters is POWER. And you, you wrestling fans of Sapporo, stop applauding like idiots. You guys on commentary, probably yammering that this was some 'great' match. I enjoyed destroying your knee and your ankle. The sounds they made when I was breaking them was like a symphony to my ears. Smush smush. Crack crack. You guys wouldn't know what that would sound like. Only people who have gotten in a ring know have ever experienced something like that. Tanahashi will never wrestle again. This ring is for wrestlers only. We are Suzuki-gun...ICHIBAN."

What a fucking heel.

Main event fucking ruled.

Got around to watching today's show and Okada developing more of an arrogant and heelish vibe to his character has been pretty interesting.

Suzuki-Tanahashi IC title match was really amazing.

What a beautiful weekend of wrestling so far. I'm almost positive on the Rumble right now.

Evil Vito 01-28-2018 11:16 AM

Be still my beating heart :heart:

The closing scene of Day 2 was so tremendous. Not sure if I agree with the outcome of the main event, but that's a whole other issue...

Jordan 01-28-2018 01:56 PM

I actually liked the way Jay went over, it was a solid finishing sequence. Really good match too. The final scene was also really nice and a great step forward for Kenny and Kota.

I actually think it's a good idea.

SPOILER: show
Given the story that's been told, I don't think Kenny/Cody really needs the US Title on the line. Cody's been questioning Kenny's leadership for pretty much the entire time he's been in Bullet Club and he challenged Ibushi for Wrestle Kingdom seemingly just to get under Kenny's skin.

Maybe their eventual match will be tied with a loser leaves the Bullet Club stip. A lot of people are taking this angle as Kenny's already been booted out but if that were the case I think they all would've partook in beating down Kenny. I actually thought that's what was coming when Kenny shoved down Matt Jackson.

As it was though only Hangman Page seemed like he was actively siding with Cody, helping to hold him up for the chair attack. The Bucks seemed annoyed at Kenny in the moment but mostly just wanted Kenny and Cody to sort their shit, and Marty Scurll was actively trying to play peacemaker the whole time.

I'd have to guess Marty and the Bucks will formally turn on Kenny before long. Losing Marty and the Bucks would pretty much kill Bullet Club and seeing how much Bullet Club merch those guys are still selling, I can't see that happening.

Kenny will get a new line of merch for Hot Topic and it'll work out. He'll have a few big tag matches with Ibushi, and for multi-man tags he'll probably get teamed with the Taguchi Japan guys since that's pretty much just an open door "stable" for people not affiliated with the four main groups.

As for Jay White, I'm guessing Hangman will be his first challenger. Hangman's not really done anything other than tag matches in New Japan as best I can tell, but if he's gonna be in "The Elite" portion of the stable it'd be best to get him some exposure in singles matches.

If you would have told me before the event that Jay was going over, I would have had reservations on whether it was a good idea, but he totally won me over with that performance. If he continues to deliver like that, then he's worthy of dethroning Omega.

Also, god damn, at that closing angle. Isn't long term booking a god damn beautiful fucking thing?

What a beautiful man.

Fuck yeah, Bullet Club Wolfpac.

Feel like the Tongans are already their own faction. Wonder where they'll fit in with all this.

#BROKEN Hasney 01-30-2018 08:17 AM

I'm not fully sure what's going to happen. Hangman and Cody could leave, or Kenny could be kicked out with maybe one or more of the other guys, or GoD and Fale could just take this over.

I love how they're playing this storyline. I wonder how much involvement Gedo and Jado have in it, because they clearly have to be clued in.

Fignuts 01-30-2018 08:21 AM

I mean I've said for a while that I'd like to see the Tongans and Fale break off and form their own faction. They've always had their own unique vibe.

And it's time for Tama to step up. He proved in the G1 he's got the chops to be a serious singles contender. I would start him off with dethroning Goto somewhere down the line.

I can't remember if it was Kenny or Cody who said it first - but apparently the first sign of tension between the two of them (when Kenny won the US Title I believe) was something they did on their own. And they did it just to give Gedo something to work with if he ever decided it was time to split up the Club or move Kenny onto something else since they could see a major face push in the offing.

Oh, neat. I'm guessing at this point he's laid out what the plans are to them all going forward and they're just filling in the gaps.

Yeah, I didn't watch the post-show stuff but apparently Tama said he can see where things are going and if club leadership fragments again he's not going to bother taking orders from anyone else. So it sure looks like there will be some sort of divide.

Evil Vito 01-30-2018 08:42 AM

During the G1 press conference, Tama went on an impassioned speech about how important Bullet Club is and you could see Kenny behind him almost being like "jesus dude, I'm the leader and not even I care about the group this much"

Which neatly played into Kenny and Tama's match

Marty Scurll is amazing and I think Cody is auditioning to be a boss in Yakuza 7 with this look.

He's doing some filming for something that requires it according to his twitter. Says he'll change it back once filming wraps but he's starting to like it.

Its not just the hair, but that combined with the big fur jacket and the cigars
