goodhelmet Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 What do you mean you will go hardcore? As opposed to softcore? Yes. Wait until some of those not-so-great guys show up. They stole Takada's spot damnit ! OK, you should unload on HHH. Feels like he shouldn't be higher than Takada.
pol Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Good to see Okada didn't make the top 100. Dare we dream that Tanahashi didn't either?
Death From Above Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I have never been a big advocate for Takada (relative to people that consider him an all time top 10 kind of guy) but I am still genuinely surprised how far the pendulum has swung on him.
GOTNW Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Good to see Okada didn't make the top 100. Dare we dream that Tanahashi didn't either? No way. Okada making it this far pretty much guarantees Tanahashi and Nakamura made it.
DR Ackermann Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 How many black wrestlers are left? Rock, Kong, Scorpio? Anyone else?
Scarlet-Left Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Up to forty-five now, with Ozaki! Are all the Japanese girls going to start dropping now?
Death From Above Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I should have voted for Devil Masami. Stupid me. Speaking of stunned, I feel betrayed even reading this shit. Who are you? I'll admit I should probably have actually seen more of Devil than I have, since I voted for her. But Devil Masami is cool as fuck. One of the most charismatic wrestlers of her time.
goc Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Glad my high vote on Perro got him in the top 150 but its bugs me a guy like Bigelow who was so inconsistent finished ahead of Matt Hardy who is like the model of consistency.
GOTNW Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Why are people so upset about Triple H when Tanahashi is still around? Even if you aren't a fan of his (I'm not) I think it's glaringly obvious Tanahashi understands how to construct a pro wrestling match much better than Triple H. His goal is to make the fangirls and the casuals lose their shit. He more than succeeds in that. The crowd heat in some of his most famed matches is outstanding. Closest Triple H got to that were The Undertaker matches but he didn't manage to accomplish something like that with the same regularity Tanahashi does.
El-P Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 OK, you should unload on HHH. That sounds so dirty. Plus, no one advocated HHH as a great worker around this place. I was not aware of the Okada hate. Puzzling too.
Timbo Slice Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I'll say this about Takada because I have one of the stronger negative statements about him in the entire thread. I got way more into guys that were people I thought were better at the style (Tamura), the BattlArts style workers and then finally saw Fujiwara, who combined facials and tremendous transitions in a way that Takada wasn't that great at. That's basically my reasoning behind it. Today has been brutal for guys I thought I could have been the high vote on, as I went Top 25 with Kandori and Top 50 with Kikuchi, only to see both of them fall. I'm now basically 100% confident the only person I'll have as my high vote is my #1.
El-P Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I should have voted for Devil Masami. Stupid me. Speaking of stunned, I feel betrayed even reading this shit. Who are you? I know. Stupid stupid me. I used to love Devil. Wait. Oz. MAYUMI OZAKI doesn't make the top 100 ? Who are you PEOPLE ? These results suck. She was my #16.
Timbo Slice Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Aw, crap, yeah, scanned through and forgot to mention Ozaki, who I also had in my Top 50. Fucking ay.
El-P Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Ok, that Inoki pic cracked me up. I wish he slapped all the people who didn't vote for Oz.
Stiva Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Aww, Butch and Masami down. I had Butch around 40 so was cool to see a higher voter, he fucking ruled.
DR Ackermann Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I should have voted for Devil Masami. Stupid me. Speaking of stunned, I feel betrayed even reading this shit. Who are you? I know. Stupid stupid me. I used to love Devil. Wait. Oz. MAYUMI OZAKI doesn't make the top 100 ? Who are you PEOPLE ? These results suck. She was my #16. You can blame me. I haven't seen enough joshi to make a proper assessment of anyone so I didn't rate any women.
Death From Above Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Inoki and Steiner with 1 votes. I love it. Will be a great main event for Inoki's next World Friendship Conference Festival or whatever in Los Angeles, don't you think?
Matt D Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I feel like Inoki is the wrestler most likely to decide to try to Hunt the World's Most Dangerous Game.
Timbo Slice Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 And it's anonymous for Inoki. Defend thyself!
Timbo Slice Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I feel like Inoki is the wrestler most likely to decide to try to Hunt the World's Most Dangerous Game. Dude, he bought an island because he thought there was buried treasure on it. Of course he's the guy trying to hunt the World's Most Dangerous Game.
JRGoldman Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I had Ozaki on my ballot, but I can completely understand people not ranking her. I think that for a great wrestler (which I think she is and voted as such) there are a lot of things she does poorly. If you are a voter who places heavy emphasis on technique, or how impactful things looks, Ozaki probably isn't going to be for you. I think it's easy for someone to watch an Ozaki match, even a good one, and make a snapshot judgement that she "isn't very good". It takes a while to see how much the little things she does every match add up.
goodhelmet Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 Yeah Inoki getting a #1 vote is so weird to me.
jaedmc Posted April 15, 2016 Report Posted April 15, 2016 I feel like Inoki is the wrestler most likely to decide to try to Hunt the World's Most Dangerous Game. He already did. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x37xe0n
