Yeah, I was wondering about the rules too. Cyber Kong and Sean O' Haire seem to be coming and going as they please.

Good ole Dragongate... I need to get caught up. I haven't watched much of anything since I started law school... Plus, my HD drived, so most of the new stuff I had from them I lost.

What you have there thrilla, is a Dragongate tape. It's an indy promotion, that compared to american feds, is closest to ring of honor in style. Although with even more highspots. In all honesty, I think the matches could actually benefit a bit if they calmed the fuck down, just a bit, and worked towards the spots a little more.
And yeah, I've come to the conclusion that japanese people don't have the same skeletal structure as us, because if they did, most wrestlers over there would have broken their necks 10 times over. |

I was looking at the sites Destor repped to me. They start with 2000 and move chronologically. Pretty awesome so far. I'm gonna slowly get caught up when I have the chance over the next few weeks.

You know, I hate Kenuke. I'm not going to lie, I just can't stand him. On the other hand, I love Akiyama, and I hate the fact that Misawa has never given him the recognition he deserves. While I'm all for pushing the younger talent, in this instance, I say fuck it. Give Akiyama the run he deserves, while he can still go.

You know who I really like in Noah? Tamon Honda. Every major singles match I've seen him in, has been extremely enjoyable. His wrestling ability is awesome, obviously. He's great at working in submissions, and the dead end German looks brutal at times. Especialy liked the avalanche version against kobashi.
It's just unfortunate that he looks so....dumpy. Just does not have the look of a championship contender at all. Last edited by Fignuts; 02-06-2009 at 12:30 AM. |

Also, yeah I feel you on Kensuke somewhat. Outside of his easrly stuff, when he tagged with Hase, I was never a huge fan. And even that was more about Hase than Kensuke. There have been a couple matches that I liked tho, such as the chop battle to end all chop battles with kobashi, and the bloodbath with Nagata.
I guess they could give it to akiyama, and then have him lose it to Marufuji, or Morishima. I just lovthe idea of a younger talent being the hero of Noah, by defeating the seemingly unstoppable outsider. I also would like to see Kensuke vs Misiwa. I have a feeling that would be another rare, likeable Kensuke match. |

I'm cloudy on the scene in Japan right now but I'm a pretty vicious Koji fan. Is he doing anything important at the moment?

Nah. Spent most of last year fighting ZERO-1 guys. He hasn't held a title since 06 either. He'll be 50 next year, so I imagine he doesn't have that much left in the tank. He can still put on a great match tho, so I'm still looking forward to that dragongate match.

I literally said "OH SHIT" out loud when Dragon countered the asai moonsault with a dropkick. I've seen that spot before but it totally caught me off guard here for some reason lol

I'm really starting to get into Puroresu over any American wrestling. British wrestling is also over American, in my opinion.

Nice to see NJ chilling the fuck out with the match subtitles. Was getting a bit ridiculous for a while.
Tanahashi vs Angle is going to be amazing. Hope Tanahashi retains, but I think they might give the belt to angle. If any TNA star was going to get that belt, it would be him. |
