>>14599909Take a look if you want to feel the cringe running down your spine.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXUkDXunak4>Give me some highlights.It was just...everything. From the start to the finish. Literally everything was cringe. Tanahashi not being able to pronounce "Vandagriff". Lance and Jeff Cobb joking around instead of giving proper interviews. They got some lady to translate Japanese to English but for some reason it felt like she was speaking as if someone held a knife to her throat. Nevermind that she wasn't actually translating most of what was being said. How hard is it to hire a translator for fucks sake.
I finally lost it when Shota tried to speak English though. I was actually talking to my screen at that point. "Dude...Just stop. Please". On one side we have Franceso Akira actually learning Japanese and giving a decent interview in Japan and then we have this. Shota being a geek is really not a meme.
Then Rocky Romero came out to hype the crowd one last time. Finally, Tanahashi took the mic again and said the same bullshit he said in his interview a few days. "Whoever takes the belt off of Moxley will become a huge star". Now here is the ultimate cringe. The translator actually translated "BELT" to "BELL". Yes, that actually happened!
Tanahashi said something like, "Just WHO will it be to take the belt off of Moxley? Well, tomorrow it is Shota's chance but...who will it be to take the belt from Moxley....that is where the future of New Japan is headed".
Then the translator just half-assed the translation to "uhhhh...who's going to get the bell for tomorrow...and..uhh..are very excited".
...I can still feel the cringe.
