Hey, if WHOA gets one, then I don't see why WIG's current Japanese partner shouldn't have an official thread as well.
So, according to what I've been keeping up with due to my extensive library of Tigerpath tapes and such, I've gotta say that despite the lack of understanding I have for the Japanese language, these guys put on some awesome shows. One of my personal matches as of late was the epic battle between Kago Kazuma and Vin Beverly, which resulted of course in Vin taking the Blazing Path championship back to WIG. Of course, on the lighter side of things, the European Blimp is quite entertaining in a "Damn he's awful!" sort of way.
Of course, my personal favorite at the moment would be the "Diamond Knee of Osaka" Masaya Nakajima. Sure, some guys might call him a one trick pony, since most of his moves rely on knees and such, but he can do plenty of other stuff. I mean, Joshua uses practically nothing but kicks, but he does them so well, that's really all he needs to do. In fact, I wouldn't mind seeing Nakajima competing here in WIG one day judging from his last match with Aqil Ghassan and Bleak Whisper.
I'm also a pretty big fans of folks like Damien Blood, HGH, Felyx Fortune, (Who definitely reminds me of somebody) and the awesomely rotund Kujira Masahashi.
The only real problem I have with Tigerpath is with that Juni Sada, who seems like nothing more than a Juri Sadamoto lite. If there's one thing that I can't stand, it's people ripping off other people's characters. Honestly, either come up with a character of your own or if you must rip them off, at least play it off in a more subtle way. I mean... THE TONFA?!
And I'll take The Blood Red Mist anyday over the Pink Mist. Hell, I'll take PINKMIST over the Pink Mist!
Anyway, I've rambled long enough. So, what about the rest of you folks?
