>>15346515I didn't know I was not allowed to name outsiders. Sorry, I must have missed the instruction manual to navigate your bizarre criteria.
Fine, in that case I'll go with my second option and just reduce the field. Why waste time with rookies and old guys right? Just reduce the number of entrants.
Personally, I'd rather see Ishii than Newman but he's old and has bo chance of winning. Let's just agree to have less pointless matches, less old guys, less rookies, less designated pin-eaters, less has-beens. How about a tournament where only the best of the best compete... what a novelty!
>>15346527It's now or never, they're not rookies anymore. If they can't show improvement after 5+ years and given a push then fuck 'em. That's the difference between the Reiwa Musketeers and guys like Newman... they have been given ample time to develop, if they're still bad there's little hope. Newman is just suffering from too much/too soon.
>>15346581You're getting worked, friend. Narita is a better worker than his gimmick allows, just check out his pre-HOT work. He's working you.
