I’m a very casual pro wrestling fan. I watched WWE growing up. I didn’t know about NJPW and Japanese pro-wrestling scene until last couple of years since I started following AEW and found out that almost all the wrestlers I loved watching had been to NJPW so thought I should check it out.
As I said, I’m a very casual viewer. I don’t even know half the moves, I just love seeing fast paced fluid moves and counters in matches and some lore. I don’t know anything about what is a “strong style” or other terms in NJPW discussions and I don’t know any wrestler apart from Gabe Kid (that too because he came to AEW recently).
With all this, do you think G1 would be a nice entry point for me or it will be too many matches too soon?
EDIT: Thanks everyone for the info! As suggested, will follow matches of only a few and see how it goes from there! I guess I’ll watch Gabe Kidd, Takeshita and Tanahashi first! See you all in the threads 🙂
