The Hidden Blade is an Awesome Signature move

[@jesussalazar1020]

I doubt the stable UE is over, but rather a new leader will take over once Ospreay is gone from NJPW. If I'd had to pick who, then Jeff Cobb. Plus Ospreay is bound to expand the faction here in the US.

[@elcactusdelamuerte506]

It looks like they're gearing up TJP to take over, which is...a choice

[@WalunirLongkumer-gy8lh]

Jeff Cobb, O Kharn or Tjp would be a reasonable pick as the new leader of UE in njpw and I see Callum being a potential leader later down the road.

[@elcactusdelamuerte506]

@@sumobo7108 oh trust me I know, but he’s the guy getting all the mic and ring time, with consistent rumours he’s being moved to the heavyweight division. Pair that with a lack of top guys and them seemingly falling in love with the idea of someone else doing Mutas gimmick make it seem like he’s just gonna be given the spot regardless of if he’s earned it or is even a good fit. But hey who knows maybe we’ll be proven wrong and he’ll be a global superstar by the end of the year, at the very least he’s okay in ring so has more going for him than some.

[@jesussalazar1020]

@elcactusdelamuerte506 isn't he still in his demon character? Either way that's good for him, he'll be the new Finn Balor.

[@jumazingwright606]

Osprey be given out concussion with those elbows

[@wrathofsocrus]

He puts his left hand under his arm and pushes his opponents back, plus he puts the base of his arm on their head and swings wildly up and away. Ibushi concussed himself and SANADA got his face broken by Ospreay doing an off-angle standing shooting star press that I'm sure he won't every try again. They were just trying to get it over as dangerous, but the Hidden Blade is completely safe.

If NJPW is going to have two different channels. One for the home crowed of Japan and the second one for the U.S. (speculation on my part due to LA Dojo & NJPW Strong being primarily based out of the U.S.) Can we at least get some other captions other than Japanese for the second channel, please? If not. What is the point of the second channel? It has the same content as the original channel. Not all of it, but nothing new either. Yet the only captions we can choose is Japanese? Why? I dont understand? If the point is to increase the brand, you need to cater to the other market a little. Im not saying Dub all the content. Just at least add more caption languages to keep your audience. In this day and age, if you as a company dont. Someone else will and they will not only steal your content but they will do it by adding something you could do easily. Preventative measures, like this stops newer fans from looking around for your content. They can understand everything, including what is being said. This Specific History only has one member (from casual fans point of view) that speaks Japanese. The rest of the faction speak other languages. That their fans from their home country cant even read what is being talked about them because as a company, you are denying them that ability. Hurting your over all goal of growth. This is an easy fix President Tanahashi. Please make NJPW better than its counter parts here in the U.S. by fixing the small problems like this. Before they become bigger problems down the road. It is easy to lose ones dream, when one has been starving for so long. That one taste can spoils it.

@@chocolateicecream3150 the iwgp tag titles are seen as treated as even worse than the wwe tag titles who quite famously were booked by a man who didn’t like or get tag wrestling. The junior tag titles are even lesser. Yes catch 2/2 are champs, but their belt is as prestigious as a wooden spoon in a division with no other teams. Like seriously who’s left? The war dogs look set to be moving up to heavyweights, TJP himself looks set to become a heavyweight, the only other teams to have challenged for the belt in the last two years either no longer team, are just random duos put together from a faction and Six or Nine (who I’m not even 100% sure are still a team and if are aren’t exactly a top act).
