I'm sitting hear watching the six man Kobashi tag match and can't help but think that Honda shouldn't be allowed to get in the ring.

yes, and it was because Naomichi is horrible.please don't come in here with no knowledge of Puro other than rare U.S. appearances of a few NOAH stars and act like you know what your talking about because it makes you sound like a moron. Just because I like Marufuji makes me seem like a moron? Ok, but NOAH is still my favorite promotion. |

Plus didn't the Marufuji title reign back in December of 06 flop? It didn't really flop. The old Japanese philosophy is that Juniors don't draw, but the Jr vs. Jr Heavyweight Title match sold out the Budokan. Doesn't make sense to me. |

Hey guys, does anyone know a website I can go to in English where I can order the NJPW King of Sports logo T-Shirt? I've been looking everywhere and NJPW's shop website is such a pain to navigate... I'm also kinda interested in buying a Wrestle Kingdom II shirt so if the site has that on there all the better... I checked ROH's website and it turned up squat... Yeah... I appreciate the lively discussion going on but I kinda really need an answer to this question... So if anyone around here can give me an answerit would be really damn awesome... |

No,because you come in here and automatically throw in "OMFG KENTA OR FUJI!!!". i'm sure you have only seen them in ROH, and yet you think you know Japanese wrestling and who is in line for title shots and what not, and clearly you don't by those suggestions. your a random indy douche who thinks they know Puro. |

Nope, all the import shops I've checked don't have any. At this point eBay is your only option, unless you can find a personal seller who ships directly from Japan. And I don't really like saying "Puro" or "Puroresu" but it beats "Japanese professional wrestling". |

Just say "Japanese Wrestling". It's more straight forward. Puroresu doesn't even translate to Japanese Wrestling. It means "Professional Wrestling".

Wow, do you always have to be a dick to people that like Indy wrestling? Also one other thing, I wouldnt have wanted to be a pro-wrestler if it wasn't for Kobashi.  |

news!  New Japan went to war with ZERO1-MAX at Z1's big seventh anniversary show last night, and on enemy soil took both the series and main event, but not before suffering some big losses. New Japan's young men won their matches, Hirasawa & Naito besting Sai & Takanishi in the second series match when Naito unveiled a Stardust press to finish off Takanishi. Sai, Yamamoto's old rival, brawled with Hirasawa afterwards, appearing to set up a singles match shortly. Takao Omori won the first battle of Wild Child, pinning former IWGP Tag Team Title co-holder, Manabu Nakanishi, in a close match, and right after, Masato Tanaka & Ikuto Hidaka beat Kanemoto & Taguchi, Tanaka pinning Taguchi. This is another situation that doesn't appear settled, with brawling post-match, and Kanemoto promising to continue his fight with ZERO1-MAX. Unified and undisputed IWGP Heavyweight Champion, Shinsuke Nakamura, sealed the series win with a main event victory over his ZERO1-MAX equivalent, Kohei Sato. The two were originally supposed to fight on the 1/4/06 Tokyo Dome super-show, but circumstances changed it. The two showed the "strong" professional wrestling, with hard strikes, suplexes, and submissions, and Nakamura came out the victory with his cross armbreaker. Nakamura grasped the microphone after the match and announced that he would return the second generation IWGP Heavyweight Title belt to ZERO-ONE founder, Shinya Hashimoto. A large "Hashimoto" call rang out and Nakamura handed the title to Hashimoto's son. Chono and Otani then got in the ring, Chono congratulating his fellow New Japan trueborn on seven years of the "ZERO-ONE" franchise. Chono told Otani that ZERO1-MAX has to work hard to inherit the soul of Hashimoto truly, and slapped him in the face for support. ZERO1-MAX "ZERO-ONE 7TH ANNIVERSARY ~ NEW CENTURY CREATION. SEVEN", 3/2/08 Tokyo Korakuen Hall - Yujiro beat Osamu Namiguchi (7:11) with a lariat. - Mitsuhide Hirasawa & Tetsuya Naito beat Ryouji Sai & Shota Takanishi (11:40) when Naito used a Stardust press on Takanishi. - Takao Omori beat Manabu Nakanishi (17:50) with an Axe Bomber. - Masato Tanaka & Ikuto Hidaka beat Koji Kanemoto & Ryusuke Taguchi (20:26) when Tanaka used the Sliding D on Taguchi. - "Destructive King" Shinya Hashimoto Memorial Match: Shinsuke Nakamura beat Kohei Sato (17:08) with a cross armbreaker. Toukon prevails in All Japan; Tanahashi in Champion Carnival! by Stuart - 01 Mar 2008 Toukon overcame Oudou at All Japan's big Sumo Hall show earlier, as the "dream team" of Keiji Muto & Hiroshi Tanahashi bested Giant Baba pupils, Toshiaki Kawada & Taiyo Kea, in a tag match. Muto pinned Kea after the Shining Wizard and shook hands with Tanahashi after the match. The big news was that in his year of exploration, Tanahashi declared that he will enter All Japan's Champion Carnival, his first adventure into the tournament. Tanahashi is especially interested in a match with All Japan's young sensation, Suwama. AJPW "PRO-WRESTLING LOVE IN RYOGOKU VOL. 4", 3/1/08 (PPV) Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan 8,500 Fans - Keiji Muto & Hiroshi Tanahashi beat Toshiaki Kawada & Taiyo Kea (21:06) when Muto used the Shining Wizard on Kea. |
