I started following NJPW regularly back in 2017 & still remember Suzuki-gun in their cool tracksuits returning to NJPW with a bang. It’s sad to say goodbye to one of the all-time great factions- though perhaps they will continue under a different guise, as they were originally born of betrayal

1. Suzuki-gun! Ichiban!

2. It’s a shame suzuki couldn’t iwgp hw title but not really surprising because he is a freelancer and has been for so damn long. Hoping for either taichi or zack to win the world title though and i’m already waiting for dangerous tekkers reunion in 2-3 years from now.

3. A legendary stable in their own way, the now former members will have to do a lot to make sure their future work isn’t constantly compared to what they did under the Suzuki-gun name

4. They may have been born from betrayal but it seems like they ended with no betrayal already.

   It doesn’t really make sense for a betrayal to happen at this point

5. Kojima was there so surprised he didn’t come out at the end to at least get a group beatdown.

6. I already think the new chapter is starting with Taka, Taichi and Lizuka. Not sure if it’ll be related or just a run up to their 20 year anniversary but we will soon see I guess.

7. I would pay a non-trivial amount of money to buy that tracksuit.

8. This is honestly one of my favorite moments in wrestling. Idk why but it always sticks with me to this day

9. Man…I hung out with friends and I’m still sad.

10. I was looking for those damn tracksuits for so long. Just can’t get them unless you go to his shop in Tokyo.

    Hell even the Black and gold/white classic t shirts. Bullet Club is for edgelords who think they’re cool. Suzukigun was for people who are cool

11. When it was announced they were done I was thinking Taichi-gun betrayal but bullet club do that every new leader so this was a nice way to go I’m hoping TAKA, Taichi and despi stay a trio but ZSJ could do with trying to push on as a single

12. Loved the Iizuka cameo. As soon as the fingers came out I hoped it might happen.

    Speaking of that return in 2017 here’s a pic I took of it: [SZG](https://twitter.com/rimorin/status/1606184905070632961?t=X75FzqBZ8mhomE77vdQkrg&s=19)
