>>6955215"Ace" is only a concept in jap feds in the first place, every single previous leader of Bullet Club has gone on to win more prestigious titles and wrestle better matches against better talents. The literal culture of Japanese feds is that if you're a gaijin, then you're easily replaceable and there will never be any long-term booking plans for you and you will never be "the guy". That's an arbitrary decision made against you based purely on your skin color.
>Okada is arguably the best wrestler in the worldNo. Jay White and Ospreay can wrestle circles around him, Kenny could and did before, Okada's made a career of getting carried by white dudes who've moved on to better pay and bigger pops than he'll ever sniff himself.
>and you continue being unable to justify this in any way that I don't easily dismantle.Pure headcanon. Your entire view is that if 1 white dude is allowed to hold a belt for a couple months every couple years, whites aren't fucked in NJPW. It's a retarded view and it's easy to keep pretending like you're winning when you can sum up everything with "lol but jay white was allowed to hold the belt for a couple months, whites don't get buried in njpw" meanwhile back here in reality, whites have no future in NJPW which is why they all eventually leave for a fed that isn't eternally ice cold. If things were so great for whites in NJPW like you want us to believe, they wouldn't all eventually leave.
