I was just asking if I should swallow my pride and watch the end of Sting’s final run in AEW?

I was asking for opinions since I’m not sure what I should do.

Honestly dude, your 180 turn on AEW is baffling.

WWE gave sting a 2-2 record in mediocre matches.

AEW gave Sting a three year long undefeated streak and made him a champion. What more could you want?

I’ve changed a lot of my views lately as I was gonna support WWE and AEW but a lot of stuff in AEW drove me away.

Sting & AEW are a package deal. You need to decide which is more important. Your support of Sting or your convictions against AEW.

Sorry I was too busy driving around on a shopping spree, telling Chris Kanyon how much of a mark he was. What were we talking about? 

[Denim&Venöm 18,731]

And in a matter of hours, both Karachi Okada and Will Ospreay will be having their final matches as New Japan stars. 

One will the the last match in the rivalry that started the return of the king (of sports).

 

The other will be NJPW's first ever War Games match between Ospreay's United Empire and David Finlay's Bullet Club to cap off the aerial assassin's last match in violent triumph or brutal devastation.  

Oh and we're getting ZSJ/Danileson II.

Forget about that, you can time travel like Alex Shelley and Kushida!?

Oh yeah. We took Chris Sabin's Dalorean. Though finding the right wardrobe to blend in was a pain. Do you dress gunge, ska or hip hop? The '90s were like three time periods in one.

Yo Roosty, @TheRockARooster Have you ever been to see Deathmatch Downunder? I was at one of these events when they came to my hometown with a good mate of mine two years ago, and by crikey it was awesome, it’s over the top WWE with glass shattering and barbed wired weapons, awesome to watch!

How do you think Okada will do outside of Japan? Nakamura was hyped up too and he's done well for himself.

Sounds like a CZW type of organization, I've seen some deathmatches live as well.

They’re Melbourne based, so they probably only ever do shows within Victoria, but they’re mighty awesome people.

Oh he'll do a lot better than Nakamura. Nak should've been a WWE world champ by now and he's way more charismatic than Okada. He's just fine with being relegated in WWE, compared to NJPW where he'd still be relegated, but in twice the work. 

AEW's workrate style would suit Okada well. Even with WWE being more embracing of Japanese stars, AEW did it better right away. Hikaru Shida is their women's ace. Riho was their first women's champ. Konosuke Takeshita is being presented like a killer. Tony is enough of a fan and The Bucks enough of friends to give Okada the best direction to succeed in America. Plus Okada is tight with the Lucha community. He could further that AEW x CMLL bond, which will get AEW tighter with NJPW. 

I was there when Okada made his debut. The dude is over. He can make this work.

I know it would probably never happen ever but I wonder if they could ever figure out a way to make a AEWWE crossover show work.

I know I've asked you this in the past but WWE did freeze over a few months ago so...

If WWE & AWA or WWE and WCW couldn't do it, neither will WWE and AEW. 

WWE has just been so hostile to wrestling in North America. Anything that threatens their monopoly is an enemy for life. 

There may have been a sizemic shift in WWE, but the mentality is still the same, from a cultural and business stand point.  

Yeah there's a deal with TNA now. But that's as much a crossover as the NWA 'invasion' in the late '90s. 

WWE have never done a joint show with another U.S. company. We'd be more likely to get a AAA/CMLL super show than WWE ever admitting they have an equal. 

[TheRockARooster 50,758]

Never say never in wrestling.

I believe anything could be possible in wrestling at this point.

I've finally chosen a name for the group of freaks under the leadership of my CAW named Godzilla, they are The Empire Of Pain.

This is the theme song that I've chosen for them.

Well last night was a hell of a watch. NJPW gave us two very different 5 star classics.

A chain wrestling sequel to the epic between Bryan Danielson & Zack Sabre Jr. An absolute dream for you wrestling purists. 

 

 

And an absolutely brutal war games match between United Empire and Bullet Club that makes any cage match by WWE and even AEW look tame. So viewer discretion advised for this one. 

But both are very much worth your time as this chapter of NJPW history comes to a close.

I was thinking of watching some older WrestleMania events as some sort of marathon leading up to this year’s WrestleMania.

I always make sure to watch my two favorite WrestleMania matches of all-time when it gets closer to the event, those matches being:

Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho from WrestleMania 19 and Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle from WrestleMania 21.

Those are great choices, Spark.

Are you still looking forward to this year's event?
