My own #njnbg in USA ratings:
Finlay vs Rosser 2.2 stars
Ishii vs Oleg 4 stars
Ricochet vs Ishimori 3 stars
Despy and Kushida vs Oliver and Price 2 stars
Phantasmo vs Takeshita 3.3 stars
KOB vs GOA 3 stars
Syuri vs Athena 3.3 stars
Tsuji vs Andrade 4.1 stars
If you haven't watched #njnbg in USA, do so. It was an excellent show. Especially the main event between Tsuji and Andrade. And Tsuji winning via submission no less helps him out a lot. It's about time the Musketeers got more decisive wins. Also, this match was so much better than the Jake Lee one.
Alex Windsor challenges Syuri for the IWGP women's belt! #njnbg
Man, Oliver and Price showed out in that match. I hadn't paid them any attention before but they looked really sharp. #njnbg
Major abs battle between Ishimori and Ricochet here #njnbg
Should warn @vedascott.bsky.social and Walker that when I see El Despy in 4 hours and hear those guitar strums I may attack that beautiful specimen of a male at birth. #njnbg #trenton #njpw πΉπΉπΉπ―π΅π―π΅π―π΅

I think this is finally what's endeared that weirdo to me, haha. Been impressed from bell to bell, but him hiding his tears under his hoodie? Girl, I've been there #njnbg #njpw π€ΌββοΈ
Omg, Yuto-Ice bawling!!! I saw that he cried, but I didn't see pics/video. I held it together until then! π #njnbg #njpw π€ΌββοΈ
Catching up on #njnbg and man, what a send off they gave Hiromu. You gotta think that shows how well liked he is, not just with the crowd but also the office. #NJPW π€ΌββοΈ
Pretty excited for Andrade vs Gabe Kidd, ngl #njnbg
Good to know that Andrade won the match at the recent #njnbg event and will challenge Yota Tsuji for the IWGP Global Championship at the upcoming #njnbgusa event.
ICYMI: Speaking of Strong Style discussed the good & bad from New Beginnings in Osaka yesterday on the @fightgamemedia.com Youtube. Steven Conway got spicy about Aaron Wolf but is #NJPW still headed in the right direction? Get the audio here! #njnbg #njcup podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...
7 minutes into the main event, and Jake Lee has put the crowd to sleep. He gets absolutely no reaction. π΅βπ« #njpw #njnbg
I was a bit skeptical about Yuko-Ice and Oskar, but they are growing on me with these solid performances. #njnbg #njpw
I'm looking at the New Japan Cup brackets between two matches of #njnbg and I'm a little sad at the state of the main event scene. It's awfully thin. Partially because there's a lack of star power, partially because many guys haven't been booked strong in a long time. #njpw
I assure you it does not. #njnbg
I am watching the Jake Lee vs. Tsuji match from #Njnbg. You people claimed it was bad... I think you meant painfully bad. #njpw #wrestling
Speaking of Strong is back in an hour! We are gonna talk the New Japan Cup, New Beginnings in Osaka, some great matches and some slop. Gonna be spicy! Join us live in the @fightgamemedia.com Youtube chat and weβll answer your questions! #njcup #njnbg #njpw youtube.com/live/UGE8tC2...
I don't know how things will go for Hiromu in his next adventure, but I wish him luck and give him my thanks for the good memories in NJPW. And I want to list some of my favorite matches of his:
#njnbg
His trilogy with Kushida in 2017.
An underrated one with Jay Lethal in War of the Worlds in 2017.
Hiromu Takahashi
The first ever New Japan Professional Wrestling match I ever watched was Hiromu Takahashi vs. El Phantasmo at Wrestle Kingdom 15. His incredible personality and wrestling skill was a huge influence on me. Time Bomb goes boom one more time. Thanks for the memories. #njnbg
Excited to catch up on NJPW: The New Beginning. Extremely excited to catch Knock Out Brothers vs. Shota Umino & Yuya Uemura. Not emotionally prepared to watch Hiromu Takahashi's final match. #njnbg
