>>11140753I agree with all of this except the bigotry.
Tanahashi is a stabbed bitch, the worst drawing top guy in njpw history. He is a walking midlife crisis. He is also rude and conceited, fucked up the DDT partnership because he felt obliged to disrespect better wrestlers publicly and as such he is still hated to this day outside of turbo marks in Japan. He's also insanely overrated. He got his push because he was handsome and stabbed by his more famous girlfriend, who was a TV weather girl. That's what got him over - the publicity from being a stabbed bitch. He just spams his moves and sells well, otherwise he's a silly looking man. He tried very hard but compared to his peers; Shibata, Nakamura, KENTA, HARASHIMA, Akiyama, etc he's a plain shitter who doesn't measure up at all.
