:scust: cage being on the impact side


Should have made him champion instead of the transitional talent enhancement guy.
Cage was totally wasted on lu outside of the stark visuals of his moveset.
Every week I would see matanza or weak ass mil fukk'n muertes and I got tired of that bullshyt.

Impact got the roster I wanna see.
Lu and njpw have the same issue as WWE but in reverse.
Leaning to hard towards the great cultural guy on the roster and not using the best mainstream gateway star globally.

I am fukk'n sick of Okada.
I was sick of Okada and tanahashi before aj showed up in njpw.

Rainmaker who is basically njpw's version of one half of their cena and Orton in Japan in basic premise but allowed to be better. At least with Naito it was different but even then...
It lacked ummph because njpw will not book well outside of rainmaker and tanahashi. Then on lu they would make the wrong guy champ all the time. Like mil muertes, who was complete trash.
With no response to what made sense. Lu suffers from the same thing the Hollywood blondes went through in wcw. Tapings with no crowd or outside booking malleable to fan reactions to the content.
In njpw, they missed making their company mainstream by always booking the rainmaker or tanahashi before aj.
Then consistently oversaturating us with both after aj left as champ.
Njpw and Lu both missed their window to market their companies to have global appeal. In favor of the same ol same ol.
Now, the window has closed and both missed out.
