    I fuckin told y’all it was Goldberg. Thought it would be Roman though. Maybe I’ll be surprised like Goldberg/Brock. Not counting on it.

    reading F4W... Woahhh...

    This was an epic and an all-time classic.

    Ibushi is one of the very best ever. White should enter the conversation surrounding the best of his generation after this performance. This was the match of his life. This will sound blasphemous, but White is a modern Ric Flair. His moves won't blow you away, but in-ring he is the perfect heel pro wrestler.

    I know Osprey is a piece of human garbage, but that match with Okada at WK15 is a match of the year contender - just insane storytelling from both, but moreso speaks to Okada's ability to carry literal garbage through a match and make it shine. Okada is 100% the GOAT.

    I also loved the myriad of OG Bullet Club callbacks, and the english speaking announce team opening up with "it's January 4th, you know what that means" to start night one.

    On to night two!

    An aside: Eddie Kingston is a hero. Just a shining beacon of human decency among us.

    I have absolutely 0 exposure to NJPW, where can I catch up with WK?

    NJPWWorld.com, just 999 Yen/month.

    Of note, Japanese streaming services ALWAYS charge on the 1st of the month, so you're good to subscribe now, but if you wait until later in the month, probably worth waiting until Feb 1.

    This is a loaded question. Stories in NJPW have been in the works, literally, for years. If you want to get the big bits, watching Dominion and Wrestle Kingdom for the last few years will give you what you really need to know. The G1 is always where the major stories are set up. If you want faction stuff, there is a lot of youtube stuff to give you details with specifics.

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    Night 2 main event was one of the best matches I've seen.

    NJPW themselves did an excellent series of videos about the history of people WWE ruined.

    Will Ospreay is such a little bitch who lets his gimmick directly emulate the person he is in real life.
