| I wish there was a western platform for watching NJPW. I'd like to give it a try (I've really only watched matches linked to on forums like this one), but I find the language barrier a bit intimidating. |

- NJPW has massively moved away from the MMA influences that they had and focused more on wrestler's personalities without straying too far from a focus on wrestling, and it's really improved their product over the past few years. Early 2000's NJPW was especially god awful. 2010 NJPW is nowhere close to as good as current NJPW on any level, it really is like comparing 1996 WWF to 2000 WWF. The Okada vs Tanahashi series alone blows anything from the past decade from any promotion aside from prime ROH clean out of the water.
Shinsuke Nakamura alone is a great example of this - he went from no personality "I was good at MMA" guy who NJPW kept pushing even though he couldn't get all that over to being over as fuck and one of the best wrestlers in the world when he picked up the King of Strong Style gimmick and the Danny Brown mannerisms. If you can only watch one match to check if NJPW is better than it previously was, watch Shinsuke Nakamura vs Kota Ibushi. Danny Brown as in...the rapper? |
