I used to watch njpw years ago, now I got a njpw world subscription but I have no idea who half the roster is, who are the young wrestlers to watch? and the best matches?

The Nooj season finale was WK14, there is zero reason to watch it in 2024

This. NJPW 70s to early 2000s is the only thing that keeps me subbed to NJPW WORLD. I'm gonna unsub the moment I finish up to there.

Tsuji's the best of the young wrestlers right now but I do think some like Yuya might figure something out eventually.

I think Yuya is the best one in terms of wrestling ability, but Yota is the one who has the overall presentation figured out best

Anything with Will Ospreay and/or Just Five Guys saga.
Shota Umino is slowly becoming the new ace.
He's still young and a little emo though.

>>16215633
Taichi has always been good but his problem is he's perfectly fine coasting in the mid card.

Seeing him in person, I can see why he’s been picked, he size mogs most of the roster, except Tana and maybe Tsuji. He tries too hard though, and all of the good guy crowd work he does feels inauthentic. Dude needs to reinvent himself like Naito did

What’s been more harmful to new Japan, white boys or letting junior heavyweights join the heavyweight division?

What killed NJPW is employing shitters without charisma or presence. It doesn't matter how good they fake fight if they're boring to look at.

It kinda did but you don’t know as much about new japans history as you’re cosplaying.

I don't know much about the specifics of NJPW business but it clearly didn't kill the company since they were pulling record gates constantly in the 90s.

Why are you talking out of your ass? the 90s were NJPW's best business period by far

AEW.
Catering to America and ignoring their home audience.
Having more generic Western CAWs on their roster than actual Japanese.
