TPWW Survivor JAPAN 4! Bringing a Funky Weapon to a Knife Pervert Fight (LIVE FROM MADISON SQUARE GARDEN!)
 
Rules:
  • Everybody selects TWO wrestlers from the NJPW roster, no duplicates allowed. You can select ONE wrestler from the “Core Roster” (who are more likely to appear frequently) and ONE wrestler from the “Regular Roster” (who could also show up frequently, or not at all / will show up on a regular basis but is a low card act). If the contest hasn't yet started, you can change your selection once by making a new post saying you're changing your selection (don't just edit your original post).
  • Your wrestler is eliminated if he or she submits or is pinned during a match at a televised (aka it's on New Japan World) NJPW event. Disqualifications, count outs, or being eliminated from a battle royale does not cause elimination. In multi-man matches (tag, triple threat, etc.), only the person who is pinned or submits is out. ROH does not count and ROH “exclusive” wrestlers (ie. Not NJPW regulars) are probably bad picks. ROH / CMLL crossover events DO count, provided they are promoted with the New Japan branding.
  • In the event of a match finishing via KNOCKOUT, the Small Council of Elders have met and come to the majority decision that a KNOCKOUT will count as an ELIMINATION. This will effectively be a slight nerf to the character Hiroshi Tanahashi.
  • In a slight change to WWE flavour Survivor, your wrestler will also be eliminated if he or she goes SIX weeks without having a televised match in a NJPW ring for any reason whatsoever (injury, marital affair, seduced by Vince, Yoshi Tatsu'd, etc.). There is a constant countdown going on from your wrestler's last match, so even if bad luck happens - you can still potentially win as long as everyone else loses in that span. In the event of two or more competitors being eliminated on the same day due to this rule and that impacting on podium positions (rank 1-3), the wrestler positions will be determined by time of last performance (meaning main eventing is more valuable than opening). In addition, the six week ruling will occur at the end of a show if one is running concurrent to the cut off date, meaning anyone who loses on the show will place lower than whoever gets six week'd. If you suffer a ban for the length of the game you will be disqualified.
  • If you win you get your choice of either first picks next season or double picks for the next season. If you take the option of double picks, you must wait until at least EIGHT other people have selected in order to prevent you from becoming The Skippord. If you are inactive upon winning to the creation of the next season, you will not get first pick and instead get double picks. In accordance with previous versions of this rule, a minimum wait time of 48 hours must pass before a prize can be defaulted.
  • A wrestler must be an active participant in a match for it to reset the six-week timer. Lumberjacks, special referees, managers, "enforcers," guest commentators, etc. do NOT count... but there will be less of this shit here anyway.

Sign-ups are allowed until the start of the the 13th March 2019 edition of NEW JAPAN CUP 2019 at the start of show, in the beginning of this night / morning, right then, on Wednesday March 13, on this day, eliminations will be eliminated, starting on this show, on the New Japan World, in the genesis of Yoshi Tatsu.

Winning wrestlers must sit out 3 seasons before returning. For co-winning Season 1 via double count out Yuji Nagata & Hiroyoshi Tenzan are both ineligible. For winning Season 2, "BONE(R) SOLDIER" Taiji Ishimori is ineligble. For winning Season 3, KNIFE PERVERT Jay "Switchblade" White is ineligible.

For winning Season 3, mike adamle has decided to sit on the Iron Throne and has pre-selected the man feared across the land, the heaviest Junior, firecely representing House Kane, the least Tranquilo of them all, "The Dragon" Shingo Takagi! Also "Drunk Uncle" Yoshinobu Kanemaru.

This season we will be jumping in during the New Japan Cup tournament, this is a single elimination tournement with the prize being a World Heavyweight Championship match against Season 3 Winner "Knife Pervert" Jay White, in the Main Event of the Madison Square Garden Supershow. Some big names could be eliminated in the first round and have a relatively good run thereafter, however, 15 of the final 16 WILL FOR SURE (unless one is Fale) lose via pinfall or submission or KO. Therefore, choose your main guy wisely, pretty much all of the heavyweight roster is involved in this one so if you feel safer with a smaller man on your back, by all means go that route.

First round matches are as follows:

8/3
1D "WWE Crown Jewel" Chase Owens d. Juice Robinson via pinfall [Jewel Heist] in a SHOCKING upset
1C "Loose Explosion" YOSHI-HASHI d. Manabu Nakanishi via submission [Butterfly Lock]
1B Taichi d. Tamoaki Honma via submission [Holy Emperor's Crucifix Tomb]
1A Tomohiro Ishii d. Yuji Nagata via pinfall [Vertical Drop Brainbuster]

9/3
1F Mikey Nicholls (aka Nick Miller from New Girl / NXT) d. Hikuleo via pinfall [Beyond Thunderbomb]
1H Lance Archer d. Toa Henare via Pinfall [Blackout]
1G Will Ospreay d. Bad Luck Fale via Pinfall [Hurricanrana]
1E Kazuchika Okada d. "Mr. POS" Michael Elgin via Pinfall [Rainmaker]

10/3
2B "Funky Weapon" Ryusuke Taguchi d. Hiroyoshi Tenzan via pinfall [Kido Clutch]
2A Hiroshi Tanahashi d. Shota Umino via submission [Texas Cloverleaf]
2D Zack Sabre Jr d. EVIL via submission [Hurrah! Another Year, Surely This One Will Be Better Than the Last; The Inexorable March of Progress Will Lead Us All to Happiness]
2C Kota Ibushi d. Tetsuya Naito via pinfall [Kamigoye]

11/3
2E Colt Cabana d. Togi Makabe via pinfall [Superman Pin]
2F Toru Yano d. PowerBoy Smith Jr via pinfall [Akagiri]
2G Minoru Suzuki d. Satoshi Kojima via pinfall [Gotch Style Piledriver]
2H SANADA d. Hirooki Goto via pinfall [Rounding Body Press]

2nd round matches:

"WWE Crown Jewel" Chase Owens vs "Loose Explosion" YOSHI-HASHI
Taichi vs Tomohiro Ishii
Mikey Nicholls (aka Nick Miller from New Girl / NXT) vs Kazuchika Okada
Lance Archer vs Will Ospreay

"Funky Weapon" Ryusuke Taguchi vs Hiroshi Tanahashi
Zack Sabre Jr vs Kota Ibushi
Colt Cabana vs Toru Yano
Minoru Suzuki vs SANADA

I will be participating in the game, but in the interest of fairness, I won't make my pick until at least ten pairs of wrestlers have been chosen, or apparently the day we start before because turnout is LOW.

Good luck :naughty: good night :kiss: and good bye Kenny Omega in New Japan bang :wavesad:.

ACH (WWE), Beretta (AEW), Chuck Taylor (AEW), Cody (AEW), Hangman Page (AEW), Katsuya Kitamura (Resigned; Destination unknown), Kenny Omega (AEW), KUSHIDA (WWE), Matt Jackson (AEW), Nick Jackson (AEW)

No, I'm in the UK so it would be a lot of money to drop on one show. I'm considering heading to Royal Quest later in the year though.

I hope you go, that show is gonna be top class I think.

Makabe scrapes through with a top 10 finish, as we are down to 8 competitors. Reigning Champ, mike adamle, still has both wrestlers alive in Shingo Takagi and Kanemaru and both will be competing in BOSJ. Kanemaru is sure to lose a lot, but Shingo has a legit shot at going undefeated. Can fallen NPC SHO finally be the one to stop him?

El Desperado (Savio) and Marty Scurll (Arrogance) will also be there for BOSJ, and they are both not making it out of there alive. Condolences.

Jay Briscoe (RP) is unlikely to be returning to New Japan and will likely be doing all of his future matches against G.o.D on RoH shitshows.

Liger (Vito) is currently angling to get himself murdered by Minoru Suzuki. The big question is "when"? Though it's probably going to be the Super Jr finals or Dominion a few days later.

Kojima (Ultra Mantis) is an outside bet, he needs to show up on the Super Juniors tour to stay in the game, and if he does he will then either enter the G1 (where he will lose a lot) or potentially carry on working opening tags. Very likely he gets timed out though.

Jeff Cobb (DaveWadding) is a good candidate for at the very least a podium finish, assuming he doesn't fall to Taichi there is a good chance he defends his NEVER title at Dominion, and heads into the G1, where... It would seem this is Okada's (Smeat) game to win, unless something completely unexpected happens with SANADA it would seem he has a clear run to the G1.

Keep a close eye on Shingo, Cobb and Okada. The rest of us are worm food.
Or so it would seem.

Kojima is not on the tour and will be timed out on the day of the final, so he needs to show up there to stay alive. While Okada and Liger are also not on the tour, their time limit stretches into the next tour and covers Dominion where they are both scheduled for singles matches (assuming Liger vs Suzuki goes ahead).

As Tama Tonga put it, Briscoes are busy scooping chicken shit. They are out on the 18th.

If Shingo goes over Dragon Lee tomorrow he might actually pull this off.

Ultra Mantis 06-04-2019 05:15 PM

Best of the Super Jrs Final is tomorrow, featuring:

Shota / Titan / Dragon Lee vs Narita / Gresham / Bandido
SHO / YOH / Taguchi vs Bullet Club [Eagles / Phantasmo / BONER]
Tiger / Liger / YOSHI-HASHI / Yano / Ishii vs Suzuki-Gun [Suzuki / Sabre / Taichi / Kanemaru / DOUKI]

CHAOS [Okada / Rocky] vs Marty Scurll / Brody King
Tanahashi vs Knife Pervert
US Heavyweight Title [NPC] Juice Robinson (c) vs Jon Moxley
BOSJ Final Shingo Takagi vs Will Ospreay

Also, Hiromu Takahashi returns!?!?

One way or another we will be down to podium positions after tomorrow. The fourth man, Satoshi Kojima is going to be timed out at the end of the show however he can still win IF...

* Liger is pinned in the ten man tag (also featuring Suzuki-Gun jobber DOUKI, semi-jobber Kanemaru and less protected veteran Tiger Mask)
* IWGP Heavyweight Champion Okada is pinned by Marty Scurll in his potential final New Japan appearance
*Undefeated Shingo Takagi loses to Will Ospreay despite the man he replaced and hugely popular stablemate Hiromu Takahashi returning from a serious career threatening injury

I can still win right? RIGHT?

Ultra Mantis 06-13-2019 05:14 PM

Nothing seems too dangerous for either guy, though if anything's going down its on the 25th. If the CHAOS side lose Liger is a good candidate to get pinned as they really seem to be dragging this Suzuki feud out, however if Liger makes it through this tour then Okada pretty much needs to go undefeated in the G1 to win this season.

Evil Vito 06-14-2019 09:47 AM

I'm thinking Tiger Mask will be the one eating the pin in that match but we'll see.

Liger doesn't normally do G1 prelim tags, so I wouldn't expect him to see him again until possibly the G1 finals undercard by which point his time will have run out.

So yeah, after the 25th it's basically Okada vs. the Clock

Ultra Mantis 06-14-2019 07:39 PM

Yeah Tiger is definitely the usual pin guy of the two, but this Suzuki / Liger feud has been spinning it's wheels for months now with neither guy really getting one up on the other. I wouldn't be surprised if CHAOS win that match either, just because DOUKI is there and Kanemaru isn't much higher in the pecking order.

I feel like Liger was announced for the G1 Texas show, so even if he doesn't work the prelim tags he would last beyond the finals, meaning Okada would have to win the G1 undefeated as World Champ.
