I'm noticing more and more Japanese fans becoming critical of Jay White.

They say he doesn't take his opponents moves head on so his matches aren't appealing, and that he doesn't properly build his finisher and only uses it as a surprise counter.

That's fair. Jay White wrestles a very soft style. New Japan is softer than it used to be but it still has some really hard hitting stuff, which Jay White doesn't fit very well with. Gaijin like AJ Styles, Kenny Omega and Ass Spray, fit better in that category of hard hitting style.

> and that he doesn't properly build his finisher and only uses it as a surprise counter.
That's a retarded complaint. The way the Blade Runner is used is god tier. Different wrestlers should have different wrestling styles. Jay White's is of a master counter-type. Cannot imagine respecting the opinion of anyone who dislikes that about Jay White.

Also, it's worth mentioning that for Japanese people who don't understand English, they're missing out on some of Jay White's kino. He has a lot of great bantz in the ring that just don't get translated, which is a bit of a shame.

Anyways, it's also worth nothing that every top guy, gaijin or not, has always had a good number of detractors among the fans. No one that gets pushed to the top is free from people that want other people in that spot instead.

>hes nor generic enough
Great cricticism

lol

>They say he doesn't take his opponents moves head on
So, they're getting worked by him being a chickenshit heel? Kayfabe still lives on in Japan, baby. This is just more validation for how great Jay is.

His AEW work was terrible. Guy can't go a sentence without dropping in one of his dimeless catchphrases.

>he doesn't properly build his finisher and only uses it as a surprise counter.
NO JAY WHITEO, YOU HAB TO BRAINBUSTA OPPONENT, THEN HIT YOUR FINISHER, KICKOUT, THREE LARIATOS, SUPER FINISHER, KICKOUT, AVALANCHE POWERBOMB, FOLLOWED WITH A STANDING MOONSAULT, KICKOUT AND THEN HIT YOUR ULTRA INSTINCT FINISHER FOR THE WIN

>His AEW work was terrible
He was given an impossible task: building an interesting feud that included Adam Cole in 3 weeks

holy fucking worked

He insists upon himself

I'd sooner watch a hundred Jay vs Honma matches than a single SANADA vs Ibushi match again, japs are retarded

>They say he doesn't take his opponents moves head on so his matches aren't appealing
That's the point. Jay is actually wrestling like a heel. Otherwise you end up like AJ, Kenny and lots of other 'heels' who end up getting over with the Japanese audience because they work the typical Japanese fighting spirit style of match

EVIL wrestles a heel far more than Jay White does.

EVIL does that by not wrestling, Jay does 95% of the work in his matches, barely uses Gedo anymore

EVIL has ascended beyond heel at this point

Worked

based

Based trips. Imagine Honmakino at Forbidden Door.

EVIL benefited a lot from NJPW matches getting shorter. His style is such a drag when he had to go 20 minutes but if he has to go 15- it's not so bad.

They wrestle like 2 different sorts of heels. Jay can take the lead on his matches without any help and finish on his own too, but he does it as a heelish scummy way. EVIL is a heel who can do it on his own but chooses not to, letting others at ringside twist the match in his favor and while doing as little work himself as possible.

jays biggest sin is not GIVING ME THE KIWI CRUSHER. JAYYY KIWI
