I am officially watching my first NJPW match in Styles vs Tanahashi for third place. This is also my first time watching a Tanahashi match

In my experience, he's one of those guys you either really like or hate. There isn't much of a middle ground, but I like him. You should watch his stuff with Okada and Nakamura from the various Wrestle Kingdom's if you can get your hands on them.

I just moved and realized I now have this channel. I watched my first whole episode of this show, so so good.

First time I have ever watched NJPW. I like Nakamura. Bad Luck Fale's look is abysmal.

I really really don't want to sound like a homer. But completely being objective on the matter, if you take the matches from 2014 New Japan AXS TV in their entirety, your Top 10 matches of the year are all this federation.
Just consistently the best you're going to see anywhere. Even in defeat, there is honor with the shows and stories that are being told in these contests.

One other thing about this show. I knew who he was. I had seen him fight before. But I have now become an INTENSE fan of Tomoaki Honma because of this show. The broadcast team really does a fantastic job of putting him over too. It's sickening to think how the WWE counterparts would bury this guy. But his matches are phenomenal, and he's such a lovable loser. And those after-match promos...oh my. I love it! I've never laughed, cheered, marked out, laughed, said "g** ****," whooped, hollered, and laughed all for one character. I'm a freaking Honma mark now, and I still don't want him to win or EVER hit a diving headbutt...NEVER hit a headbutt please. Just sheer character-wise, he's golden plated platinum.

I love finally having context for the feuds and matches. Once we reach wk9 i rewatch the show with better appriciation
I see the Cena/tanahashi comparison way more thanks to the context.
Loving this series. 2015 will be so sweet i hope this series last forever.

Side note I loved Mauro and Josh eviscerating Jarrett on commentary last week, they clearly have the same opinion of him that everyone else does.
