Dave's got no friends: G1 Final Reaction

2022/08/19

The Stiff Bois return a day late with what could generously be called a njpw reaction show. In a shorter form, the lads break down the final few nights of G1 action, identify, or adopt, their top bois for the final week, hype the upcoming Sitffies and wax lyrical about We Work Stiff entering into the New Japan lexicon.

The Stiff Bois return to the #Stiff1 format this week with an absolute bumper edition of the show. With the best back to back shows of the tour so far, from Osaka, setting the table, the lads dive deep into a myriad of stories such as Shingo’s high floors, Okada and Jay’s duelling performances, Great-O-Khans facials, Tama Tonga’s sincerity, YOSHI-HASHI’s relevance, KENTA’s entrepreneurial spirit and enduring legacy, Yujiro’s existence, something about Taichi, JONAH’s big future and commanding

2022/08/03

If you are looking for an in-depth dissection of some of the great happenings of nights 6 through 10 of NJPW’s G1 tournament, we could recommend some other fine New Japan podcasts. But, if you want to a show dedicated to going as big D-block deep on David Finlay’s tournament to explore what is says about the G1 philosophy this year, what it may say about the future of New Japan Pro Wrestling and how it is tied to the movements of Juice and the future of Bullet Club, then this is the show for you

Headboard Banger: G1 Nights 3-5 Discussion

We Work Stiff ·

2022/07/27

In easily the most unhinged episode since the return, the Stiff Bois are back to talk about the second week of the G1. Recording as night 6 was happening, the lads welcome a debuting field reporter, discuss NJPW Strong as a concept, answer some great listener questions, ask for some recognition from Kevin Kelly, only to immediate undercut their credibility with reviews of foreign toilets, and, of course, detail the highs and lows of their #Stiff1 bois. Sure, there were two more nights between

Stiff 1 2022: G1 Nights 1-2 Discussion

2022/07/20

The Stiff Bois are back to talk the opening two nights of this year’s G1 and begin to wildly speculate and conspiracy book about what it means. Yeah, sure, the episode is dropping just after Night 3 airs, and is thus instantly dated, but really, is anyone going to be talking about the one night that features a Yujiro match into a Chase match into a Fale match? The bois think that they are safe, and so here it is. The first of the G1 reviews, #Stiff1 style. As always, feel free to leave a comment,

2022/07/06

The Stiff Bois are gathering around the NJPW Christmas tree for the most wonderful time of the wrestling year – the G1 Climax. To celebrate, they engage in the annual tradition of the Stiff 1 fantasy draft. A special show, different to everything else in the year, that sets up the way the lads will cover this year’s G1 tournament. Which wrestler will be picked in the first round? Who will be the odd wrestler out? Which pick will prove to be the most surprising? Which of the bois will draft the

Forbidden Door Delivers

2022/06/29

The Stiff Bois are back to review the amazing AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door PPV spectacular. Whilst other shows will focus on the great matches, and standout wrestling sequences, and big spots and great pops, of a wild night, this episode finds the lads instead opting to try and explore how it made them feel, where it took their imagination and what they think it suggests for the future. So, how do the story time lads handle a show that didn’t rely upon deep narrative to drive intrigue? Well, they

That’s right, they turned the structure of the show over to our great listeners and

The Sitff Bois triumphantly return to talk the big stories in New Japan Pro Wrestling this week. From G1 announcements, to the AEW and NJPW Forbidden Door build, to some happenings coming in and out of Dominion. If you are looking for a review of Dominion, there are many other fine NJPW podcasts that specialise in such things. We on the other hand, spend the time answering your questions, arguing with random tweets, discussing the concept of a mid-carder, and dedicate over 1 hour to talk Jay
