>>6077033You seem to listen to Cornette, I had no idea gesticulating was his thing, or whatever?
>>6077102They don't follow Will Ospreay, they didn't know his group. I never said anything about a script backing up every match or Twitter or whatever else you're trying to force into this to avoid just accepting some people don't like they way some stuff is done. Tanahashi was very briefly on tv for his debut, that had no effect on ratings, and the last episode heavily featured NJPW stuff and bombed when it shouldn't have. We can just have a conversation about stuff and our opinions instead of greentexting and calling everything 'bullshit' and 'smark talking points'.
>>6077225Asahi doesn't have the international rights to NJPW, they have rights to air a tv show, NJPW has all rights hence it being on their streaming network. Asahi only has exclusive rights to special programs which they pay to produce, which aren't the regular NJPW shows.
>>6077281They didn't know his stable so they aren't following him. The pop was decent to good, but a guy like Ospreay could have gotten something way bigger and had a 'moment', same with Tanahashi.
