NJPW actually does false finishes correctly, unlike ROH who just spams finishers until the ending is anticlimactic.

The wrestling and false finishes might be better, but my friend showed me a fairly recent 4 way elimination tag match in ROH with reDRagon, the Addiction, the Briscoes, and ACH & Matt Sydal. I thought it was a really good tag match, and definitely better than any tag match I've seen recently other than the WK9 tag matches. It definitely shytted on anything WWE is doing in tag matches.

AXS Wants More New Japan
MMA fighter Josh Barnett, who recently announced his intent to resume his UFC career, was a guest on The MMA Hour this week and had some great news for wrestling fans.

According to Barnett, AXS TV is looking to sign two more seasons of their critically acclaimed New Japan Pro Wrestling series, that features some of the best matches from 2013 and 2014. The show is currently in its first season, and features Barnett and Mauro Ranallo on commentary.

and the young gawd Ibushi again last night, I'm hoping they air the Wrestle Kingdom 9 match - even though I've watched it a tonne of times already.
