I'm here to tell you about my series of writings I'm doing. I'm calling it The Characters of NJPW, and what this is is a guide to give newcomers to New Japan a feel as for how each of their wrestlers operate, what their motivations are, how their story drives them to be who they are, and how their actions inside and outside of the squared circle further their personas. Although this will contain historical data and a brief description of each wrestler’s past, it’s main goal is not meant to be a comprehensive guide to a performer’s history and achievements. Rather, we intend focus on two main topics: Character and in-ring work, to see how each wrestler on NJPW sets themselves apart from the rest of the roster, and what makes them truly unique and worth investing.
I would also like to thank anyone that read the installments, the responses have been really amazing. I will update this topic with each new installment. Ok, I'll stop talking now. Below is a link to a list with all of the articles available:
