>>16643562He is too scrawny and always had the demeanor and ability that would have made him better as a holier than thou/I'm better than you at technical wrestling heel. He had that personality back when he was in Suzuki-Gun and lost it when he went TMDK weeb.
The real issue I had with this main event was it showcased a lot of NJPW's tropes: It was too long, slow most of the time, the build was sloppy, constant kick outs and the guy he was facing was basically Japanese Moxley, who is one of the biggest anti-dimes in wrestling. It also had such an obvious outcome.
Gaijin weebs tend to not come off well to the West and even in some cases (major eg. Kingston), their own people.
