I'm watching the latest DG Infinity and even though I can't speak Japanese Eita bullying Big R even in victory is making me sad Okuda going ham on Ishida ruled though. forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Mar 21, 2020 |

Watched the last two matches from Judgement, and wow that main event was amazing. Takeshita is always great, and Tanaka more than held up his end. It defies belief that he looks just as good as he did 20 years ago, albeit with more horrifying forehead scars.

DRAGONGATE vs. R・E・D Kzy & Yosuke♡Santa Maria & Dragon Dia vs. Eita & Big R Shimizu & Kaito Ishida Not exactly a must see show to be honest, though the all DG tag match of Ben-K & Okuda vs J & Shiiba is interesting. Also be nice to see Jimmy back in Japan. Will miss Martin Kirby from my DG undercards though, sad he retired. Theoretically there's an All Japan show on Monday & that's more of a must see, but apparently Gaora TV have pulled out from filming it?

Sounds like it? Stuff seems to be ramping back up in Japan though whether that lasts or not or if it'll turn out they've tried to cover it up and things have to go back into lockdown, who knows? forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Mar 22, 2020 |

The entire DG show ended up being streamed on Youtube for free, which I didn't expect, & with English commentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo8B5qfqzHU They have some fun with the no fans stuff.

Venomous posted:Is the Champion Carnival still going ahead as planned then? Nothing has yet been cancelled - assuming the current trajectory carries on I'd expect individual towns and buildings to cancel things (they run a lot of town halls and therefore some cities might make the call to cancel shows); I don't think the Sapporo show will happen considering the situation in Hokkaido (Big Japan had shows cancelled there recently) and Osaka and Nagoya seem to be worse hit than Tokyo so they might call things off as well; but the plan seems to be to run what they can. The quarantine rules will force changes in the people that are in the tournament: Gianni Valetta is apparently already in Japan so he'll be in the thing but Joel Redman, Davey Boy Smith Jr and (sadly) Lucas Steel aren't and would struggle to clear quarantine by the opening night so even if they could get a flight and were willing to go then they'd have to change cards and if they aren't willing to do or able to get there then that's three spots you have to fill in short notice.

Somehow I just realised how WWE that team is. Tajiri (whose name my phone keeps insisting is Tahiti), Yoshitatsu and Jinsei Shinsaki aka Hakushi Loving that AJPW are clearly saying gently caress it to censoring music so I can laugh at Sai for coming out to The Offspring forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 11:19 on Mar 23, 2020 |

Lamuella posted:Do All Japan have English commentary currently? No, but they also are incredibly easy to follow without speaking Japanese. There's very few in-ring promos, and when there are you can get the gist, it's probably just champions next challenger coming out to challenge. I recommend subbing for April, check the Carnival and see how you like it. But you will probably like it.

Suwama was always meant to Stop The Kento because this was his night: it was his destiny to win the Triple Crown again. They announced 1,213 as the attendance which is on the high end of what I expected.

I'm really surprised they did it. Felt like him winning was inevitable and then dropping it in the Korakuen in May after CC. And then I was shouting holy poo poo when that 3 count happened. Jesus Nomura you unlucky bastard.

tbh I kinda expect Suwama to hold until Nomura comes back I predict that Kento will win the CC, lose the rematch at Korakuen, then Suwama will likely go through his CC losses (one of whom is certain to be Gianni Valletta, gently caress yeahhhhh the Maltese Rikidozan is gonna get his moment) until Nomura returns to the biggest pop in the world and a burning desire to win the goddamn belt

Korakuen Hall is not hosting any events with an audience now. Just got a LINE message from TAKA Michinoku saying JUST TAP OUT is cancelled. I imagine Sunday's NOAH goes ahead as a No People Gate show because it's airing live on DDT Universe.

Oh right, enough. I didn't read the translation properly. "Following a request from Tokyo to cancel the event at the Tokyo venue this weekend, it was decided on March 29 that the Korakuen Hall Game..." and just stopped there & assumed it meant they'd cancelled. Oh well, happy enough with an empty arena show.

Takao Omori has taken one of the three vacant spots in this year's Champion Carnival caused by DBS Jr., Lucas Steel and Joel Redman being unable to travel.
