I was curious to see who was the best player born on each day of the year. It turned out to be a bit more of a struggle than I thought it was going to be, so I decided to simply sort it by WAR. Does that mean that sometimes a better player got left off the list for a player who simply had a longer career? Absolutely. But WAR is a nice simple stat. So, here's the list!

With the G1 underway, this is always a time when people unfamiliar with New Japan Pro Wrestling get their eyes drawn to company. Especially lately, for a myriad of reasons, there may be a lot of people who have been largely unfamiliar with the recent status of the lion's den.

As such, I thought I'd make this little guide to one of the systems deep at the core of New Japan, its factions, and the stories behind them. (As well as give a little one-line intro to each wrestler within them.) Hoping this will make getting into (or back into) New Japan during one of the best periods of its calendar year all the easier.

At its core, New Japan is split into multiple factions which each have a place in determining where wrestlers fall on the face/heel spectrum, their ideals etc. They will almost always tag together and rarely ever fight each other. So let's break it down, starting with the most recognisable:

##Bullet Club

The one you're most likely to know if you've seen any wrestling merch, Bullet Club is the most distinctly heel faction of New Japan, and was created by Prince Devitt (Finn Balor) alongside Karl Anderson, Bad Luck Fale and Tama Tonga to be a home for foreigners to New Japan.

They've had multiple incarnations, each one symbolic of their leader at the time.

Devitt's Bullet Club was a group of rebellious gaijin misfits who wanted to break the traditions of the company and introduce a more western sense of wrestling to New Japan.

AJ Styles' Bullet Club was a glory seeking BC. Rich with titles, and they became iconic for it, growing into the globally reaching brand you know today.

Kenny Omega's Bullet Club was one that wanted to revolutionise wrestling itself, and focused on major individual achievement, merch sales and crowd-pleasing matches, which made this the only time in which Bullet Club ever felt like more of a tweener faction, getting cheers from audiences. However, many BC members from the older days took issue with this, which led to a civil war in the faction that ultimately split The Elite from the BC. Which leads us to....

Jay White's Bullet Club, the current, "cutthroat" incarnation of Bullet Club, with the group being by far at its most heelish since its inception. With these guys, expect dirty tactics, interference and general shitcannery.

There was a bit of a mix-up in BC this last year during the pandemic; since almost all of the faction was stuck in the west when the pandemic hit, EVIL ended up sho

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Where we last left off in our prologue, the American Dragon and the Rainmaker were on the complete opposite sides of the spectrum in their respective companies. While Kazuchika Okada kickstarted his 2022 with a championship victory and two successful championship defenses, Bryan Danielson kickstarted the year with an unlucky decision loss to “Hangman” Adam Page. As of right now, it seems like Danielson has been working his way back on top however, as he’s set to face off with Chris Jericho at AEW’s special episode of Dynamite, Beach Break.

AEW Beach Break (February 9, 2022)

Bryan Danielson vs. Chris Jericho

This match kicks things off tonight, as both Danielson and Jericho look to cap off their brief rivalry tonight on Beach Break. This is the first match between these two since their time in WWE, ending a near-9 year streak of these two not facing off in singles competition. The match runs for about 7 minutes, and while Jericho is able to get a fair bit of offense in during the beginning of the match, it becomes more and more one-sided as time goes by. Eventually in the end, Danielson is firmly in control of this bout, and it looks like he’s simply playing with his foot instead of actually finishing Jericho off like he should. He’s able to lock in the Triangle Choke, landing elbow after elbow on Jericho before the referee eventually steps in to put a stop to this thing, ruling Danielson the victor.

Bryan Danielson def. Chris Jericho in 7:13

AEW Dynamite (February 16, 2022)

One week following his dominant and speedy victory over Chris Jericho, the American Dragon takes to the ring to address the AEW faithful. With a microphone in hand, we see Danielson recap his year so far, talking about his highs against Chris Jericho and his ultimate low against Adam Page. While he can’t immediately receive another shot at the AEW World Championship due to his “bullshit” decision loss against Page, he’s still going to grow and claim championship gold…

Excalibur and Tony Schiavone question whether Danielson is talking about the TNT Championship or something, meanwhile the Dragon continues speaking, eventually clarifying that HE’S OFFICIALLY ENTERING THE 2022 NEW JAPAN CUP!!! Danielson states that ever since he saw the resurgence of New Japan Pro Wrestling, with guys like Tetsuya Naito, Kota Ibushi, and Kazuchika Okada all growing into the stars that they are today, he knew that there was new land to conquer. And now, Danielson p
