Dean's New Japan Pro-Wrestling


Recommended Posts

1. Ángel de Oro & Pegasso vs. Fuego & Stuka Jr.

comments: Angel de Oro is really really great.

 

2. Titán vs. Dragon Lee

comments: I'm a fan of both but Dragon Lee is definitely on the up and up.

 

3. Juice Robinson & David Finlay vs. Barbaro Cavernario & OKUMURA

comments: I love me some Cavernario. I enjoyed having him in my BOSJ, even though his match grades were nowt special.

 

4. KUSHIDA, Ryusuke Taguchi & Atlantis vs. Último Guerrero, Hechicero & Bobby Z

comments: ATLANTISWINSLOL

 

5. Hirooki Goto, YOSHI-HASHI & Mephisto vs. Volador Jr., Jushin Thunder Liger & Tiger Mask

comments: I love Memphisto's honorary membership in CHAOS.

 

6. Kazuchika Okada & Virus vs. EVIL & Kamaitachi

comments: I'd love to see Kamaitachi pick up a win on his LIJ debut but this team is pretty stacked.

 

7. Hiroshi Tanahashi, Michael Elgin & Caristico vs. Tetsuya Naito, SANADA & BUSHI

comments: TANAHASHIWINSLOL

 

Night 2

 

1. Dragon Lee vs. David Finlay

comments:

 

2. Ryusuke Taguchi & Fuego vs. Mephisto & Hechicero

comments: I get the impression Hechicero is there to eat the fall.

 

3. OKUMURA vs. Pegasso

comments: I'm not familiar with Pegasso but Okumura normally does okay on this tour.

 

4. YOSHI-HASHI, Virus, Bobby Z & Barbaro Cavernario vs. Titán, Stuka Jr., Ángel de Oro & Tiger Mask

comments: What a wild match. I'm too big a fan of Titan, Stuka and Angel to let them lose this one.

 

5. Atlantis, Jushin Thunder Liger & KUSHIDA vs. Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI & Kamaitachi

comments: Even though the babyface team is stacked, it feels right to let LIJ take this one. Naito can pin Liger.

 

6. Michael Elgin, Juice Robinson & Volador Jr. vs. Kazuchika Okada, Hirooki Goto & Último Guerrero

comments: What a team. Juice is there to eat the fall.

 

7. Hiroshi Tanahashi & Caristico vs. EVIL & SANADA

comments: I've got Tana winning day one, but SANADA needs to beat him once. At least this way, Elgin doesn't take damage.

However, it has not been the best time for Los Ingobernables de Japón. The group has won only one of their four contests, suffering defeats at the hands of Kazuchika Okada, Caristico and Hiroshi Tanahashi.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Their frustrations boiled over on night 2, as SANADA and Tanahashi got into a wild brawl and had to be separated by NJPW staff. SANADA, who defeated Tanahashi in last year's G1 Climax, issued a challenge for the IWGP Intercontinental Title after defeating Tanahashi's team in a NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Title match at New Year Dash!! He will likely get this match at the New Beginning, but the tensions will simmer until then.</div><p></p><p> </p><p> <strong>NJPW "NJPW presents CMLL Fantastica Mania 2017", 1/15/17</strong> (Samurai!

These shows are pretty hard to book - the logistics are tough as I had to edit some CMLL contracts and traded a ton of guys and tens of thousands in cash to CMLL to get the group of luchadores. I feel like these are much more realistic cards than the ones I booked in my old journal, as I realized a few things about the real world Fantastica Mania tour. For starters, in the four years they've had it, NO ONE from Bullet Club has ever been on this show! They basically book the same group of 14-16 CMLL guys and 14-16 NJPW guys, and they don't use Makabe, Honma, Ishii, Shibata, or the Third Gen guys (they probably wouldn't work well with the luchadores). Anyway, I love reading your predictions, and I'm consistently seeing you guys with better ideas than me haha! I post the cards after I book them, just so I don't let the predictions influence my booking.

Fantastica Mania night 3 & 4 cards!

 

Full cards for Fantastica Mania nights 3 & 4! by Dean - 1/18/17

 

The cards for nights 3 and 4 of the Fantastica Mania tour have been released, and, as in years past, the final three nights feature some special matches, CMLL championship bouts, and the annual Black Cat Memorial six man tag team match.

 

Night 3 will feature a special tag match pitting Hiroshi Tanahashi and Atlantis against Kazuchika Okada and Último Guerrero, as well as a CMLL World Welterweight Title match between the champion, Mephisto, and Stuka Jr.

 

Night 4 will see the annual Black Cat Memorial match in the main event, as the dream team of Hiroshi Tanahashi, Caristico and Jushin Thunder Liger will face the CHAOS combo of Kazuchika Okada and Hirooki Goto with Último Guerrero. In addition, there will be a Mexican National Light Heavyweight Title match between the legends Atlantis and Virus, a NWA World Historic Welterweight Title match between Volador Jr. and Ryusuke Taguchi, and a Special Lucha Rules Two out of Three Falls match between rivals Dragon Lee and Kamaitachi! The full card for the fifth and final night of the tour will be posted soon, and is sure to feature even more special contests, including a NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Title match!

The final three nights of this tour have historically featured some CMLL title matches and a few more "special" contests, so I am trying to emulate that here. Kamaitachi vs. Dragon Lee seems obligatory, and TEW has a special Lucha Libre match that is 2/3 falls, so I figured that would be a cool one to book. I'm going to go with another CMLL title match and a NEVER 6-man match on the final night, but I think posting 2 cards at a time is more than enough for prediction purposes and I haven't run Night 5 yet. Good luck and thanks again for the comments!!

Fantastica Mania night 3 & 4 results!

 

Fantastica Mania night 3 & 4 results! by Dean - 1/20/17

 

Nights 3 and 4 of the Fantastica Mania tour saw some CMLL title matches as well as two amazing main events. It seems that Los Ingobernables are getting back on track, as they won all four of their matches on these two nights. EVIL picked up victories over Jushin Thunder Liger and Juice Robinson, while Kamaitachi defeated Dragon Lee and SANADA used his Skull End to score another submission win for the group.

Fun shows, but it seems like realistic booking would certainly hurt my ratings. For example, the final night's main event of all the real Fantastica Mania tours has been a special singles or title match between two top luchadores, which will be no higher than a C at absolute best in this game. So there's no way I'm going to try that.

 

I am trying to balance between booking good matches and following what NJPW really does, which is always a challenge on these shows. I enjoy keeping the booking as realistic as possible and I don't really veer off into fantasy booking territory. Nevertheless, the results can be really disappointing - Dragon Lee vs. Kamaitachi, for example. Not sure how a match that is amazing in real life can be so bad in the game, especially since my product judges performance > popularity. :mad:

 

Night 5 card coming soon! Thank you all for reading!!!

 

Predictions

 

Rampaaage: 12 of 14 (WOAH! someone is going to get a perfect score soon, and you could be it. Only 1 match wrong on each night)

 

Dr_Avalance: 10 of 14 (getting better!!)

 

Rateddc: 10 of 14

 

2Sweet: 10 of 14 (welcome aboard, and good picks!)

Tetsuya Naito and Kamaitachi showed great chemistry in teaming together, as Naito also won by submission, forcing Ryusuke Taguchi to tap out to the leg scissors cross kneelock that Naito has been using recently.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Kazuchika Okada and Volador Jr. put on a competitive contest, but Volador fell to the Rainmaker.

Moreover, Dragon Lee lost his CMLL World Lightweight Title to Ángel de Oro in the first and only CMLL title change of this tour. The luchadores were fan favorites throughout the week, and the crowd at Yoyogi National Stadium Gym showed their appreciation throughout the night.</div><p></p><p> </p><p> <strong>NJPW "NJPW presents CMLL Fantastica Mania 2017", 1/22/17</strong> (Samurai!

I knew that Dragon Lee title switch would get people, and from what I read about CMLL, Ángel de Oro actually held the Light Heavyweight Championship for like 500 days, so he might not be the most realistic Lightweight champion but I realized this after I booked it. However, Ángel is only 78 kg, while Lee is 75 kg, so I think they are in the same weight class [interestingly enough, CMLL seems to ignore the weight limits they set, as Dragon Lee's title is supposed to have a max weight of 70 kg, even though Lee was 75 kg when he won. Interestingly enough, Tommy Williams was 84 kg when he won the title, so they have no friggin clue.

<p>Road to the New Beginning night 1 card and title matches!</p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">First night of the Road to the New Beginning tour and title matches confirmed!</span></strong> by <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Dean</span></strong> - <em>1/25/17</em></p><p> </p><p> </p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;">With Fantastica Mania behind us, the Road to the New Beginning starts. The tour will culminate in two PPV shows, the New Beginning in Osaka and in Niigata.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The Osaka show will see an IWGP Heavyweight Title Match in the main event, as champion Kenny Omega will make his first defense against Hirooki Goto. While Kazuchika Okada is certainly in line for a rematch after losing the belt at Wrestle Kingdom 11, he told the press he thinks his CHAOS stablemate Goto has earned the match and will let him challenge first. Okada said he looks forward to facing Goto once again after he takes the belt from Omega. </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The Niigata show will end in an IWGP Intercontinental Title match between the new champion Hiroshi Tanahashi and SANADA, who has been on quite the hot streak as of late, as he has made Jushin Thunder Liger, KUSHIDA, Ricochet and Juice Robinson all tap out to the Skull End this month alone. SANADA used that same hold to submit Tanahashi back in the G1 Climax, and Tanahashi has yet to avenge this loss.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> KUSHIDA will have a chance to regain his IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title as he will get a rematch against new champion Will Ospreay in Osaka. Togi Makabe picked up a big win over NEVER Openweight Champion Katsuyori Shibata back at New Year Dash!!, and will challenge for the title in Niigata.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> As for the IWGP Tag Team Titles, the Briscoes have established themselves as one of the top teams in New Japan and have successfully defended the belts three times. In Niigata, they will defend against arguably the most decorated team in NJPW history - Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Satoshi Kojima! The Briscoes have never faced TenKoji, so this will be the first meeting of two of the best tag teams of the last decade.</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Titles will also be on the line in Osaka, as the newly crowned team of Atsushi Kotoge and Daisuke Harada will represent Pro-Wrestling NOAH in a match against three former champions - the Young Bucks, reDRagon and Matt Sydal & Ricochet!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Los Ingobernables de Japón will attempt to make their third successful defense of the NEVER Openweight Six Man Tag Team Titles on the last night of the Road to the New Beginning tour, as they will take on the first time challengers of CHAOS stablemates Kazuchika Okada and Roppongi Vice!</div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"> New Japan Pro-Wrestling begins 2017 with a New Beginning!</div><p></p><p> </p><p> <strong>NJPW "Road to the New Beginning", 2/1/17</strong></p><p><strong> Naruto Boat Race Place</strong></p><p> </p><p> 1.
