1. Just saw this on Twitter.

   Love it.

2. Incredibly hyped to see what this kid can do to the Junior Heavyweights. Legitimately one of the guys in the promotion I enjoy watching the most and a big reason I tune into the Road to New Japan shows at some ungodly hour on the east coast.

3. NJPW is fucking awesome right now.

4. Mans better get some new orange gear to celebrate.

5. Goddamn. They are really going all in on this new crop of young talent. I love this. Let’s just make sure the dojo continues to focus on quality and not quantity. New talent is great, but I’d rather they push talent who are ready to share a ring with guys like Ishii and Goto.

6. I’m already counting down the days to BOSJ 31.

7. I know! I saw him.

8. I’m excited to see how these Young Guns mature and grow.

9. Ichiban Sweetboy!!!

10. im so glad they did this fujita definitely deserves it. he pinned gedo and then looked really good against liyoh at the end of bosj

11. Looking forward to a Robbie/Fujita Jr tag title challenge

12. Did Fujita have any sort of excursion away? In any event, this is good news.

    I wonder if Eagles and Fujita challenge for the Jr. tag belts any time soon.

13. Man, this crop of young lions stepped up their games on excursion.

14. So was this who Hiromu was referring to in backstage comments for a next challenge saying he didn’t want to say his name, starts with a K, other initial F?

15. Ready for BOSJ, could be a coming out party if booked right

16. Also Zack said that Fujita doesn’t need an excursion in the all together backstage comments.

    Also hinted that gujita is gonna get one more mentor

17. Whoa, they really strapped the rocket to him. I’ll say he has been the clear stand out among the current crop of YL’s

18. Who had him graduating before Uemura?

19. Good for him. I always felt he was the best of this class of Young Lions.

20. Fujita/Eagles JR tag league incoming methinks.

    Cmon my son lets get you to the top.

21. As great as Fujita is, I’m really not a fan of guys skipping excursion. It always hinders their development
