No other wrestling promotion would admit that they once (or more) went through a dark period. Love the honesty

[tapishnusamanta]

The Recounts literally connect the existing fans with the new ones. For old Njpw fans, the Recount is nostalgic and for new ones, its exciting and informative. Kevin Kelly deserves a medal for the narration.

This really opened my eyes to this company. It feels way more professional and prestigious than WWE for sure.

Damn, red shoes with the giant cat jump

[therandomladz]

@2:29 that’s why Red Shoes is one of the best referees in Pro Wrestling!

This shit is why I prefer NJPW over every other wrestling promotion today! This will be the fourth G1 I'll be watching ever since getting into NJPW in late 2015. This year is shaping up to be one of the best I'll ever witness!

[HA-]

Wow Tanahashi looks like Ricky the Dragon Steamboat from 85 - 87. Would've loved to see those too wrestle each other in their prime!!!!

[TBLIVIN]

Yuji Nagata STILL feels like a big deal wrestler these days. I love that man.

[kolzever]

Back when nakamura was an actual star instead of a wasted mid carder lol.

It’s these type of recaps and stories of highs and lows and humble beginnings that are other reasons why I love to follow, learn, and watch this promotion.

G1 Climax the greatest party of the summer

[cbwilson]

I love the recount series, great opportunity to look at history without the boring bits included.

[sinsinawa]

I could watch the recount all day This will really make NJPW new fans that can jump in and learn the lore

[esmarory]

Watching this at at work 3 pm. Cosistency is key.

All hyped up for g1 this year!!

[MuscleManMalcolm]

For someone who doesn’t watch NJPW regularly these Recount videos are so helpful to understand what’s going on

[mahmoudrezgui]

I hope Will Ospreay wins this year's G1, he's really entertaining to watch and has a spectacular talent.
