Preview Of New Japan’s Best Of Super Juniors 2016

PWInsider.com has an excellent article up right now taking a look at all of the competitors and blocks in the upcoming New Japan Best Of Super Juniors 2016 tournament. Below is an excerpt taking a look at KUSHIDA and Ryusuke Taguchi from Block A of the tournament:

Block A

KUSHIDA

KUSHIDA is the defending BOSJ champion and the current IWGP Jr heavyweight champion.  New Japan’s junior ace is having the best year of his career, and after winning the tournament last year, finally ascended to the top of the junior division.  He is the first Jr champion to take part in the tournament since Prince Devitt in 2013, who was that years winner.  If KUSHIDA doesn’t win his block and go onto the final, he will certainly be the runner up. KUSHIDA is one of the finest juniors in the world right now, so we are guaranteed several great matches from him in this tournament.

Ryusuke Taguchi

The Funky Weapon has become a comedy act in NJPW, but don’t be fooled.  Taguchi can go in the ring when he wants to.  The question is, will we get the ass-attacking Taguchi, or the guy that once won the tournament.  If he is somewhat serious, we should get some very good matches from him, particularly when he faces his buddy KUSHIDA.  If he isn’t a lot of his matches could become goofy fodder.
