>main evented by two homegrown stars, not an AEW wrestler
It's time to admit that NOAH is the soul of Japanese pro wrestling

He looks like a tranny. I can't decide if he looks more like an MtF, or FtM, but something about him doesn't seem right.

This looks so grim. A TNA-tier card. NOAH should've just closed down gracefully after Kobashi retired.

I fucking hate everything about post NXT Inamura. From the 2010s Skrillex hair to being a larping westaboo cowboy to his atrocious ring attire. He just screams CAW and NOAH is just running the risk of having fans boo him against Ozawa like they did Kaito

Gallows and Anderson going to NOAH and not back to NJPW is VERY interesting, politically speaking. Have they fallen out with Rocky Romero ? He took over Tiger Hattori's role as the gaijin liaison for NJPW. Anderson was always "Gedo's #1 guy" for years and fiercely loyal to him too. How have the Good Bros fallen out of grace with NJPW that they won't book them anymore?

I wish, but I think "Invasion" signifies that they're members of another roster invading NOAH.

expect AJ to show up on the New Year's Day show too btw to set up something possibly with Good Brothers. He will probably have his final match in Japan in NOAH later in the year

They already said that AJ's last match in Japan was at the WWE house show this year. I mean I wouldn't complain though. It would be cool if he had one more match in Japan and one more match in TNA in his last year of wrestling. Obviously New Japan would be better than NOAH, but we know how Tony feels about that.

Tony Khan would not be the one blocking AJ Styles from having 1 last match in NJPW while under WWE contract. WWE would never let AJ do that because NJPW is in bed with AEW. They were never going to let Nakamura do it either. Don't get fooled by grifters and clickbait merchants. WWE made it "a living hell" for NJPW when it came to Anderson going back to drop the NEVER belt to Tama Tonga on that 1 WrestleKingdom a few years back. NJPW/Rocky Romero were said to be left extremely frustrated by how WWE treated them when it came to allowing Anderson to do dates/appearances and fucked them at least 2 times when they gave the OK for Anderson to be advertised then they pulled him, once for a Saudi show and the other time for no reason at all other than to be pricks. NJPW office is in no rush or desire to try and collaborate with WWE again after that debacle.

the thing is though, that we now know that NJPW fucking sucks dogshit at using the AEW guys and it's not just tony khan politics holding them back
