>>14384577Mox being the IWGP champ is way different than simply jobbing out at a TNA show. That'd be like making Cawdy or Swerve lose the company belt to some fucking random jap who doesn't even work in your company. Even the Japs are whining that Tanahashit turned njpw into a Gaijin paradise. It annoys me because Tanahashit was the moron who lead the rebellion against Inoki way back but this is grand idea for NJPW? To be a bitch to the USA? Vince & Inoki actually had an agreement with each other that Vince would never try to make moves in Japan so long as Inoki was still in the game. That's why Vince didn't bother to make any moves until the 2010s.
The new management, they just get dicked down by Tonikan who is nowhere near as capable as vincetty. Tanahashi is legit popular with the nujap audience but I think Tanahashit listens to way too much internet because he's seem be in the same exact echo chamber as the Meltzer iwc.
I don't fucking care though. I'm enjoying the nujamal tears. I hate gayew, and I did like njpw a few years ago but if they're this retarded then they deserve it. It improves my opinion on gayew because it shows that they're actually getting serious in trying to be a real contender against wwe.
Their rationale should be, "if we didn't do it, wwe would've first."
