G1 Climax 29: 10 Biggest Storylines of the tournament

#3 Juice's Redemption

Juice gives as good as he's got

New Japan's Western expansion took a huge hit with the exit of the ELITE, or so the wrestling world thought. With a decent crop of foreign wrestlers to build from, New Japan doesn't need to fear.

Luckily they built ahead with one such wrestler in Juice Robinson. The deflating loss to the debuting Jon Moxley in a US Heavyweight championship match left Robinson on a different mindset going into the G1 Climax.

While he's still as showy as ever, Juice's hair cut and stoic silence backstage up to the final day spoke far more.

Here was a Juice ready to prove his worth not just to New Japan and the fans, but to himself as well. While a rocky road with some tough losses, Juice really brought it to the likes of Jay White and Tomohiro Ishii.

All this lead to his big night on the final day, a rematch against Jon Moxley and a chance to spoil the coming-out party of his former FCW brethren.

Juice finally pulled out the big one and once again build towards the US Heavyweight championship.

This measure of redemption coupled with his new attitude can propel Juice even higher in the Lion's Den. Thankfully he still hasn't lost the party flavor that makes him who he is. No one's had a more touching story.
