EVIL if built right is still a legit HW title contender
He did not look out of place with the title but Gedo didn’t book him to his strengths in the ring and the interference and shit

Odds are it's Suzuki

Before this week is over we'll see who Shibata faces. Odds are it's Suzuki Rest of the world: Let's ease him in, the man nearly died and it is a borderline miracle he is wrestling Shibata: Man, I can't wait to deliver my first sickening headbutt

Kanemaru actually won the fan vote, so it’ll be Whiskey they’re drinking during their KOPW match.

Something tells me that Minoru Suzuki's teamup with the NEO Itoh Respect Army at today's DDT show won't exactly be a smooth collaboration.

Shibata’s match at Wrestle Kingdom will be a Catch Wrestling Rules match.

In the meantime, let's remember the most epic opening VTR for a Wrestle Kingdom (yes, it's WK5)

I'm happy we're getting any sort of Shibata but I wish we could get more clarification on where this comeback is going. Is he fully cleared and they're just building up to a full match or is he never going to be able to wrestle a match where strikes are allowed? Either is fine but I wish we knew and I can see fans getting frustrated if they keep announcing his matches and then give them different rules later on.

I’m loving all the people complaining about the fact that Shibata’s first match back won’t involve him head butting people and risking dying again.
“Well, they’re not being forthcoming about what kind of return it is.” Except Shibata has been very clear that he wants to bring pure wrestling back to New Japan but, whatever. Western fans are short entitled sometimes. It’s why a lot of domestic fans can’t stand us.

He’s been clear in every interview he’s had recently that it’s the style he wants to wrestle. I would have figured him having that exhibition with ZSJ made that clear, as well.
