New Japan Pro Wrestling: Gaijin Glory


Recommended Posts

http://twfnews.com/home/img/NJPWlogo2.png

 

I have been in the process of a New Japan save that I've put a lot of time into but am just now beginning to post on here. I tried doing YouTube but I get self conscious about my voice. However, if you'd like to check it out, here's some links to my episodes!!

 

 

 

Anyways, here are the main things you need to know!

 

 

Where am I?

 

I am currently in May of 2017, right in the midst of the Annual Best of the Super Jrs. Tournament, the second under my guise.

 

Who's There?

 

I'll probably post a separate edition where I lay out my roster by weight classes and the teams involved, as well as the stables that are going on in the promotion (WCW 98 anybody?), but there are a lot of memorable names.

 

Who's Champ right now?

 

IWGP Heavyweight: Kazuchika Okada

IWGP Intercontinental: CM Punk

IWGP Tag Team: (IMPACT) Austin Aries & Nick Aldis

 

IWGP Jr. Heavyweight: Adam Cole

IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team: Chris Jericho & Kyle O'Reilly

 

ROH World Heavyweight: (I'll explain) Kenny Omega

 

In my save ROH folded after Sinclair ceased business, I was able to get a lot of talent as well as purchase the lineage of the title. Hopefully I do it justice startig with my first champion Kenny, who was crowned at Wrestling Dontaku 2017 against Roderick Strong

 

NEVER: Kota Ibushi

NEVER 6-Man: (Bullet Club) Kenny Omega, Karl Anderson, Yujiro Takahashi

 

What about the Tournaments?

 

As i said, I'm in the midst of the 2017 BOSJ, but here are the tournament winners under my watch, following with what they did of prominence later.

 

BOSJ 2016: Roderick Strong, would defeat Jay Lethal for Jr. Heavy Title at Dominion 2016

 

G1 Climax 2016: AJ Styles, would defeat Bobby Roode for IWGP Title at WK11

 

New Japan Cup 2017: Bobby Lashley, would unsuccessfully challenge for IWGP title at Invasion Attack 2017 vs. AJ Styles

 

New Japan Cup 2016: Seth Rollins (Vince retired, Steph was willing to do Talent sharing), would unsuccessfully challenge for IWGP title at Invasion Attack 2016 vs Kazuchika Okada

 

Super J Cup 2016: Jay Lethal, would defeat Rod Strong for Jr. Heavy title at G1 Climax Finals 2016

 

Super Jr. Tag Tournament 2016: ForeveRRoppongi (Alex Kozlov & Barretta), would win Jr. Tag Titles at KOPW 2016

 

World Tag League 2016: G.B.H. (Tomoaki Honma & Togi Makabe), Honma injured, nothing of note would happen :(

 

Are You Doing NJPW Right?

 

I would like to think that I do, the fact it is a performance based promotion makes it really easy to scout talent, as it's mostly in-ring based, focusing on psychology. I big critique I could see myself getting is that there are way too many Gaijins in the company. While i may agree, I have been trying my best to grow my own Japanese talent through the dojo as well as signing quality Japanese stars.

 

What's Going On?

 

The Super Juniors tourney is going on, so i will be posting results of the 15 match cards used for the tourney on here, as well as the full card for the Finals PPV event.

 

I hope some people get enjoyment out of reading through my save, so let me know what you guys think and I'll see you soon!

I have a feeling that Lethal or Richards may be one of the BOSJ finals for Block A whilst Roderick Strong being the other final for Block B. Can't wait to see Strong surpass Sydal in points. Nice touch on the diary!!

</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<em>Following the match, the two men embrace, as the entirety of the IMPACT stable comes down to the ring in order to share in the special moment. But what's that?! That's KINGdom's music! The IWGP Jr. Heavyweight and Intercontinental champs are out here, (Cole and Punk respectively), and they've brought out Roddy Strong! Cole, "I don't know if you saw earlier on tonight, but my boy Roddy took care of Matt Sydal and he's all but guarenteed to win his block. So uh, if anybody is winning this tournament, it's going to be KINGdom... and after Roddy wins this thing, I'll be happy to offer him a title shot at Dominion, hell i might just surrender the title to him! But you.. (Pointing at Lethal), I dealt with you already, I beat you for this title and I see no point in fighting you again.. And you... (Richards) judging by the fact that you just lost to Black Machismo here, my guess is that you're not much of a factor in this equation. With that said, whoever wins this tournament gets a shot at my Jr. Heavyweight title at Dominion. Punk grabs the mic, "Roode.. I know you have a vested interest in your boyfriends here... and I'm always one to oblige any comers for my title, so I propose a deal for you... Should one of your IMPACT cronies win this tournament, you can challenge me for this title (IC) at Dominion.. However, should anyone else win.. you, Mr. Roode, will not be competing in this year's G1 Climax... Roode ponders for a moment, and grabs a mic, "I have all the faith in the world in my boys, these are my brothers, and I believe in them... I ACCEPT." Crowd Cheers, Show Ends.</em></p><p> </p><p>
