Jan 1, 2019 That was so epic. That Suicide doll Frankie found lol. Notes from WOR: - NO TV yet, but MULTIPLE OFFERS. - Guys are being signed to multi-year contracts. All the name's you'd expect to be offered contracts are being offered contracts. Bucks haven't signed, but Cody has. Others have. - Nick Jackson said he couldn't believe it, but it's real. Ran into Dave at an arcade, like I'm gonna believe that. - Double or Nothing is the next thing. Makes sense that you'd want a similar outcome to All In if they're going to do it, and that was the turning point for getting TV people interested. - Jericho tweeted a photo from a Jacksonville Jaguars game. He's not signed, Dave speculates it could be a message to Japan/WWE/AEW and they probably all think it's for them. - Lots obviously happening behind the scenes, more coming in the next week. - Tokyo Dome and New Years Dash show the next day are going to be very "interesting" - lots of angles. They want to keep a relationship with New Japan, but Dave doesn't know where New Japan or ROH stand on working with them. I can't even right now fam, this is wild. This is me, but the success or failure of this depends on how companies lock down their talent. ROH/New Japan need to be all in on this, if AEW can get TV and they're willing to highlight guys from ROH or New Japan, that only helps those companies. Edit Wrestle Kingdom has now outsold last year's. This thing could actually sell out.
Jan 1, 2019 Contemplating ruining my sleep schedule to watch WK live this year. I say that every year though and never follow through lol
Jan 1, 2019 Those $2000 flights tho Japan and Egypt are the two places I want to see more than anything, but it's never gonna happen
Jan 1, 2019 It's something I could have easily saved up for over the year but didn't. We didnt really commit to the idea that we could ACTUALLY go
Jan 2, 2019 Okay so I honestly probably won’t stay up to watch WK but I’m at least going to get a New Japan World subscription and watch it legally this year
Jan 2, 2019 They need to sign the biggest free agent in pro wrestling big dimes Fatass Masa to a deal
Jan 3, 2019 Goldberg followed them on Twitter. They wanted Hogan in the Bullet Club for a long time, would be crazy if they could get a name like that. Jericho/Naito is gonna be No DQ, powerbombed him through a table at the signing a bit ago. Their last match was quite dangerous, kinda worried lol.
Jan 3, 2019 I finally have an NJPW World account, I'll probably keep it after the event so if you guys have any older matches to recommend, let me hear them
Jan 3, 2019 This list is a fantastic tool. What I did when I first got the service was CTRL + F AJ Styles and Kenny Omega. I watched most of AJ's matches, then I watched Omega's run (starting with that Tanahashi match) until the Tokyo Dome versus Okada. Then I branched out to the Juniors and started watching any match that sounded good. It's amazing what's on there. Supposedly can't link the spreadsheet, but here's the Reddit thread where it's linked to I'll be throwing up my 2018 best of in a few days, keep track on my phone and just gotta send it over.
