The Future Rebels of New Japan Pro Wrestling

With Redd away for work, Josh and Dave are back at it, but this time, have an actual NJPW show to talk about. Using listener questions as prompts, as is expected, the sweet, story driven, bois ignore much of the Burning Spirit show to instead identify two key narratives from the top of the card and go deep into the potential implications; talking Ospreay v Finlay and the glorious moment for the Golden Brothers reuniting. Josh and Dave start by exploring where Ospreay is now, and then move onto where the Rebel David Finlay could be headed. The idea of the Rebel, his association with Juice, the connections to Shooter and Mox, and the potential for the next phase of Mox’s New Japan run. This blends into a discussion on Jay White and his Bullet Club; which is searching for an identity amidst a betrayal, and the free flowing chat finishes with a broader discussion on what the Bullet Club has meant for Western engagement and what New Japan has been doing over the past 5 to 7 years with its talent development to prepare for a new way of reaching this audience.
