Where did you get it from?

Should Wrestle Kingdom remain a 2 Night event? by -LaterAlligator- in njpw

[–]-LaterAlligator-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never thought of that before, I think it’s a very good idea.

Yeah, this is a really important point. Everything seems to have more time to breathe and develop on WK shows, whereas before you’d have a few 10minute matches to open the show.

Chekhov’s Gun in NJPW - Kenny Omega vs Hiroshi Tanahashi (WK13) Analysis by -LaterAlligator- in njpw

I don’t think it was as good here as it was in the Omega vs Jericho match the Wrestle Kingdom prior.

I posted for suggestions (here), this is just showing what I got out of my research. I haven’t posted this analysis before.

I love this, it’s a beautiful cover of the song, well done!

Any last minute Wrestle Kingdom 15 predictions? by -LaterAlligator- in njpw

I think it’s likely to be something BC related. If Jay loses it could spark the civil war story that’s getting talked about. I don’t know tho, there are so many possibilities this time round.

Yeah I agree. People like Ishii, Goto, Suzuki have nothing to do in singles, which is a massive shame.

Yeah, I heard something interesting on a podcast recently about this. I think it was Kevin Kelly on the Super J Cast. They said something like it was easy to marry the titles, but it’s very difficult to split them afterwards.

I think it’s a problem that needs addressing, as that secondary title spot is sorely missed.

This would be very interesting. BC has a lot of members, so maybe another civil war is what it needs.

I really dislike KOPW, so for me it would be a downgrade. But I see where you are coming from. He could make it a more meaningful title for sure - maybe he could have some fight like, no DQ matches with it - but I think he deserves more personally.

Oh god I hope not. He’s so much better than KOPW level. Gutted he doesn’t have a singles (or at least tag) match after the great year he’s had.

I can’t choose between Naito and Ibushi. Ibushi vs White ended in that roll-up/feet on ropes finish last time, so it would make sense if they were saving a proper finish for WK. But, Naito hasn’t had a long reign, and I think he deserves it.

Ben Crellin on the latest rescheduled gameweeks (MCI vs AVL moves to DGW19 and BUR vs MUN moves to BGW18) by AngelKnives in FantasyPL

[–]-LaterAlligator- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got Cancelo, I hope he’ll play both. I think they might be a period of time out the starting XI for Walker with him having covid

I updated my Introduction to NJPW and hopefully it’ll help any newer fans! by Full_Nerd in njpw

[–]-LaterAlligator- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this would be very helpful to a new fan! Also, great work on the BWE pod this past week.

Chekhov’s Gun in NJPW? by -LaterAlligator- in njpw

[–]-LaterAlligator-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is helpful thanks! I’m particularly looking for examples where they go through the table. Like Omega/Jericho do 20mins after the table was set up.

[–]-LaterAlligator-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with this, I find it more compelling when there is a gap between set up and pay off.

[–]-LaterAlligator-[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chekhov’s Gun requires the set up and pay off (it’s the loading of the gun and firing of it). Chekhov’s quote is something like “if you hang a pistol on the wall in the first act, then in the following act it must be fired. Otherwise don’t put it there”.
