It reminds me of the old NWA USA Title

[ShadowSwordmaster]

FUCKERY

 

[HashtagLapsed]

COME OUT AND SAVE YOUR EX LOVER IBUSHI

 

[Jashobeam]

Much respect for Ishii, he put up a great fight

 

[Reneledarker]

Omega cleaning the sky of stars, taking all of them home:

 

[DMczaf]

that was some good wrassle

 

[Sinatar]

Here comes Cody Rhodes to suck all the energy out of the moment.

 

[slightconfuse]

Finally the BC/elite split

 

[Ithil]

The New Japan president kinda gave away the angle, he got right the fuck outta there after giving Omega the belt.

 

[The Strokes]

IBUSHI GET YOUR ASS OUT THERE

 

[SallyIsNow]

Is Ishii dead?

 

[Brian_FETO]

This is weird because it seemed like they were gonna split, the BC guys walked out like a bunch of assholes

I hope they do

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

Good guy Omega.

 

[Syder]

 

[Ultratech]

Yeah...that match was pure madness.

Kenny reaching for all the Stars in that one.

Ishii came out of it looking like a goddamn beast.

 

[Evening Musuko]

Nice to see Kenny cut a promo and the audience actually reacts.

Great match to end on. Can't wait for the G1.

 

[Hex]

I will get tickets next year I do not care who has to die

 

[Fantomex]

Me and my son, 6th row. I'll remember this night forever. We were so hype in the crowd.

 

[Jashobeam]

I will be there live for 2018

 

[Foffy]

Putting the belt on Kenny probably means they'd like to have big things for an America expansion.

I mean, Kenny is one of the top four in NJPW, so they better not be pushing him in the midcard.

 

[Syder]

A match deserving of kicking off a new Championship.

A man deserving of being the inaugural Champion.

 

[fury]

Hopefully they do a proper tour in multiple cities next year.

 

[Brian_FETO]

New Japan come to Chicago my dude

Allstate Arena, you know you want it

 

[Anth0ny]

what a match. real wrestling!

 

[HashtagLapsed]

Me and my son, 6th row. I'll remember this night forever. We were so hype in the crowd.

Awesome! Glad the two of you had a great time.

 

[Foffy]

Kenny just buried the NEVER and starting era of the IC belt.

D a m n.

 

[The Strokes]

All of wrasslegaf is going to be in the crowd in 2018, count me in, bois.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

All of wrasslegaf is going to be in the crowd in 2018, count me in, bois.

Amen.

 

[HeavenlyE]

Lol at them kicking the press out to film Being the Elite

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

The more I see the belt the more I like it

 

[Syder]

The more I see the belt the more I like it

It looks a lot better on a person.

 

[smokeyp]

I dunno about you guys, but I kinda want to go to In-N-Out now.

 

[SallyIsNow]

So, everyone hype for RAW?

 

[Nekofrog]

I dunno about you guys, but I kinda want to go to In-N-Out now.

get the fries well done

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

D a m n.

He was right that the IC belt used to suck, but the NEVER belt is awesome now.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

It looks a lot better on a person.

It really does

 

[Foffy]

He was right that the IC belt used to suck, but the NEVER belt is awesome now.

Indeed. I understand why he gave the NEVER belt shit tho: it was supposed be a belt where non-NJPW talent fought over it.

Then it became the midcard hoss title when Makabe, Ishii, and Shibata were juggling it. This is when it got good.

Minoru Suzuki is too good to hold that belt.

 

[Heroman]

I now know what a ***** match looks like live

 

[Syder]

So, everyone hype for RAW?

 

[Fantomex]

Awesome! Glad the two of you had a great time.

Thanks brother. I'll write about in the community thread if anyone wants me to. We the crowd were freaking hype. I think the only people that got booed were Cody and then Billy Gunn for a bit. One hilarious part was when chodes tried to start chants like if they were at full sail. Dudes tried to start just retire to Billy, You deserve it and some other lame ones and we would tell them to STFU they would quiet down really quick. There was a point where a dude told Zack Saber that he was a midget that couldn't wrestle and some dude was like "shut up or I'll beat your ass", that kind of set the tone haha. Everyone just wanted it to be new Japan and not wwe. And we all didn't want NJPW ago think we were trash. Kenny, Marty and Okada were absolute gentlemen and would greet us.

If any of you went to the show. Meet some of us at the In N Out on Atlantic. About 5-10 mins from the arena

 

[hitme]

back from the event.. oh...

I RODE THE HOTEL ELEVATOR WITH OKADA, TIGER HATTORI JIM ROSS.

(and caught Jay Briscoe's sweaty bandanna).

 

[SallyIsNow]

I imagine In-N-Out would be full.

Would love a write up on your experience. Glad people tried to keep a handle on the crowd!

Will do. Dude Fale was at In-N-Out! Took a picture with us. We were outside. I know it's bad manners to bug people while they eat.

Minoru Suzuki is too good to hold that belt.

It's a good fit for him as the Strong Style guy, though I wonder who could take it for him. My hope is Ishii, I'd love to see him go back to it.

wait did ropongi vice split? what happened?

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Rocky said they talked before the show and said if they lost Beretta would go heavyweight. They lost, so Beretta is moving to the heavyweight division.

Not sure what happens to Rocky, but there's talk he's retiring to focus on his behind-the-scenes position with NJPW.

Awh, I loved Rocky in the ring.

I know there were rumors when AJ and co split that he was suggested a trainer role in WWE, so perhaps if there's any weight to this in Rocky's desires, he might be a trainer for the New Japan Dojo.
