No Suzuki in G1?!
By Scott Keith on June 18, 2019
Any real life backstage reason we don’t get ageless badass Minoru Suzuki in G1 (whereas we’re stuck with NJPWs version of Baron Corbin, aka Lance Archer)? I feel like we’re being deprived of Suzuki vs Moxley, or Suzuki vs KENTA. Honestly his absence is the only one short of this being a dream line up. Or I just really like old Japanese dudes who give precisely zero fucks, I don’t know.
Meltzer was speculating that he's 51 years old and banged up, and just wasn't going to be able to pull it off this year. And yeah, he's been notably absent from a lot of the big shows this year as it is, so maybe there's something to it.
That being said, Moxley v. Suzuki seems to be this weird dream match that a lot of people really wanted, and I just don't know if it could have lived up to the imagined hype.
