Not gonna lie, it would be hilarious if Nakamura went back
I don't believe it, but I could also see him being someone New Japan would offer a stupid amount of money to

Its more of getting people to tune into wrestling on a friday
Theory feels like a transitional champion for Darby, since he is the only heel with a built in relationship/storyline with Darby. I'd be shocked if the main event of the Supershow wasn't a Darby dream match, unless Gabe wants to have the Darby title win occur on the Supershow.
I'm on the same boat re Shimmer and US vs the World. Nothing on US vs the World is blowing me away right now so I may go to Shimmer just because I already have tix to it.
NJPW would be pretty dumb to pay a lot to get Nak America back. He's old. He can't go like they want him to.
SHIMMER will probably be a good show, I'm fortunate enough to live in the area so I can see their normal tapings. SHIMMER 100 in NOLA was good (and honestly way tighter than what they normally run at tapings) but they don't embrace the Mania Weekend Supercard like most promotions do (and should?). It also kind of bothers me that the first two names they announced were girls who really aren't very good. Madison Eagles will be there though and she is incredible. Killer Kelly will likely be there due to wXw
US vs. The World to me just feels like Wrestlecon's attempt at a bootleg PWG (the same way the Penis Party is a bootleg Spring Break). All of the names they've announced are good, I'd like to believe that Cage/Tanaka will be good but I have little faith in bloated muscleman delivering on Mike Awesome spots. I figure the Dragon Gate dudes will get tossed in there, if they run PAC vs. Robbie Eagles that'd be fuckin awesome. Alternatively, PAC/Eita vs. LAX. There's options.
I figured since I'm going to Spring Break the Wrestlecon stuff is halfway there from the WWN venue so it makes it a bit easier traveling too
I dont care what people think. If Nakamura's contract is up either NJPW need to snatch him up or whatever the fuck The Elite is going to needs to grab him fast otherwise their company will be The Elite vs themselves.
The two big potential storylines for Nakamura in NJPW before he left were; CHAOS civil war vs Okada, and Naito surpassing him. Since then they've done the CHAOS stuff with Switchblade (albeit with him defecting to Bullet Club rather than taking CHAOS from Okada) and Naito got his symbolic passing of the torch moment vs Tanahashi, rather than Nakamura. That's not to say there isn't fresh ground for him to cover, but I kinda feel like he hasn't been away long enough for it to have the impact his return should.
lol you're taking the piss
Ishii is 43
Tana is 42
MiSu is 50
We can pretend that Nakamura works hard like those actual hard workers
Feels like thats where he might have been heading on 205 Live (might just have been my wishful thinking though with me getting tired of the scrappy underdog thing) but I think he's a face for the foreseeable future on SD.
So Brad Shepard owned himself again. He published a report claiming that Vince absolutely hates Asuka. Problem is that Tokyo Sports published an interview that very same day with Asuka. Where she talked about her future goals in WWE (Which are to wrestle Ronda, and to raise the quality of the women's division even further), and that the very first person who congratulated her after the TLC match was Vince McMahon. Who apparently gave her a hug and was completely over the moon in regards to her work.
I'm not sure how they do it. Suzuki's 50 and is still capable of main eventing. WWE people can't get near that age and remain competent.
I don't think he should head to NJPW on any level. Retire! Save your brain
I've read nothing but rave reviews for the Devlin and Ospreay matches, but haven't actually watched either
*whoops i misread because of note instead of not, thought you were saying he usually is in sleepwalking mode lol
Ahh sorry, fixed it. Both of them were absolutely worth checking out, same goes for Ringkamf vs Devlin and Starr also in OTT.
Funny thing is if it was real Crunchyroll would get a better deal out of this then DAZN does with boxing.
WWE put out more of their surveys today. Asking which of their shows people like and dislike and why. Then some specific stuff about why people enjoy Smackdown.
They asked about different options to add stakes to the matches like a ranking system, points based on wins and losses, and a few other options.
Historically these types of surveys are things they are actually listening to and thinking about, so it's worth mentioning.

Ranking system for smackdown? Would make sense if fox wants it sports oriented.
Yeah that's what I was thinking too. Those sorts of ideas fit with what Fox seems to want.
I was going to say rankings and points feels weird in the world of wrestling, but then I remembered that's basically the G1

The fucker got a "Please come back" chant at La Boom.
Spoiler: I started that chant.
He's fucking awesome and I'm pretty sure I had him in one of my "EVOLVE should be using these guys" lists. Dude is a standout at AAW and proud outspoken Elgin loyalty aside the dude is a star
His match with AR Fox owned. He also won that 4 way, so Evolve must be pretty high on him, especially considering he won over BSHP KNG who was getting hyped up before the shows
MODS!!!! that spoiler hurt my soul, do something. all twitter links should be hypertext only.
I think rankings would help give random matches some artificial meaning or drama if used properly. WWE would not use it properly.
