We've all got our views on the young talent in new Japan. Some being positioned higher than others. And of course we all have a talent in mind that we may have at a higher standard than certain other guys. And I'm guessing their is one match that made you either a fan of a talent or realize maybe there's hope for them in the future.
For me:
- Yota Tsuji: His match against Tomohiro Ishii at Royal Quest. It was the first post young lion match i saw of Tsuji. And overachieved in that match. It was one of the best matches of those two nights.
- Shota Umino: The easy answer would be the match against Ospreay at Power Struggle. But the first match that i truly thought their is hope for Shota is his title match against ZSJ at Sakura Genesis in 2023. It showed that Shota trying to be flashy can do the ground work when it comes to it. And it was his best paced match at that time.
- Gabe Kidd & Akira: The match between Gabe & Akira at a Revpro show. I watched Gabe Kidd since WCPW when he was just a young babyface. After some time i didn't see him often after WCPW died. But then i saw a highlight reel of the Akira vs Gabe match and thought those twos future is bright.
