Are we sure that it was a mistake? This is what they normally do for taped shows...

ok I think I've seen just about everything on the Dragon Gate network. Is NOAH up on the DDT Universe or do they only have new shows going forward?

https://twitter.com/BJWOfficial/status/1256066619287076864?s=19 BJW is crowd funding to survive. From what I've heard they're unlikely to make it through June if they don't start doing live shows again.

I think they had some small crowds during the Strong Climb shows last month but that came to an end & the finals were a no fans show. It'd be really bad if Big Japan dies. Obviously the leading death match group in the world, the Strong division is usually worth a watch, their dojo has put out some quality talent like Nomura. And it's also one of the longest existing active wrestling companies in Japan, after AJPW, NJPW, & Michinoku Pro. Combine that with Wrestle-1 shuttering a month ago, the rumours around All Japan, it's not a healthy time.

Any of the Dead or Alive shows are a great watch if you're new to DG, but 2014, 2016, and 2019 are probably the best of the bunch to start with (2014 was my introduction to Dragon Gate, and is a total blast). Kobe World from last year was also a great watch, but you'll want to watch DoA 2019 first for the setup to that show if you go that route.

When I had the service I made it a point to watch PAC's 2019 run via the Infinity shows.

https://dragongate.live/title/?program=comp_BigEventsFeature The Dead or Alive's of the past decade are all free right now. 2014 was my first Dragon Gate show and it's an all timer show.

Larry Dallas and his pet nerd are pretty good on commentary too. Not quite the easy comaraderie that NJPW has going on but they do a great job explaining the action and don't get in the way. Just for the love of god, don't interact with Larry Dallas on social media.

Dallas spends a pretty good portion of the undercard quizzing Jae(whom I can never remember his name), which leads to some pretty funny/awkward moments.

Jae superfanned his way into being an official announcer for Dragon Gate, something I think we can all agree is very cool.

I wasn't trying to call him a lovely weasal or anything. Exploring DDT universe now. Its streaming service is a lot better than when it first debuted but I haven't tried live yet. English support is decentish. Not really built for binge watching tho.

I just hope DDT can split matches into their own videos because that's what makes watching easy for me

They really need subtitling. Stuff like this Imanari solo show is just some weird music with no pants to me.

I need to get back in the habit of watching wrestling again and I guess tomorrow's All Japan headlined by a tag title clash between Violent Giants vs YoshiKen is as good as any. Time: 6:00AM East, 3:00AM Pacific, 11:00AM British, 7:00PM Japan Can Kento go 0/3 in 3 consecutive title matches, following on from last weeks loss in the All Asia Tag match? Probably not? I'm kind of done with empty arena shows but if there's a title match I'll make an exception. But it's not ideal.

Put on the DDT TV show and absolutely bewildered but loving the loving weird manga energy if Dieno vs Akito. Dramatic DDT doesn't do the description for how out there this is. This is how you do cinematic wrestling.

Dragon Gate has announced that King of Gate will be going ahead this month in a series of empty arena shows. https://twitter.com/DragonGateEN/status/1257664161443528706 Dragon Gate posted:

No point having a later show if no crowd. Probably better for talent and everyone

You know, this is an excellent reason to subscribe to the network, cause that's 8 PM my time and I'm sure they can use the money.

There is a better than zero percent chance that there will be English commentary post live for those who are interested

So far got to say that the warehouse nature of 2AW Square works out pretty well for an empty arena show. During the JIN vs Ashino and X tag match in particular it almost sounds like there's an audience between how loud the wrestlers in ring are combined with those at ringside. Seen a few shows from there now and I think it's probably the best suited for no fan shows just because of how small it is.

Tomorrow's DDT TV show looks really good, we're finally getting the Masato Tanaka vs. Yukio Sakaguchi title match and Chris Brookes gets a hardcore match with Shunma Katsumata as revenge for getting him banned from Twitter last year.

Also Jun Akiyama is also going to be there; and he'll be a guest coach with DDT as well apparently.

If you, like me, are staring at your computer screen on a Sunday morning, you can watch NOAH on Abema TV for free right now https://twitter.com/Hi5ame/status/1259423459626622976?s=20 Main event of Muta & Marufuji vs Sakuraba & Mochizuki which is some team. Also a Jr Tag Title match of HAYATA & Ogawa vs YO-HEY & Tadasuke & I'm confused as to why Hayata & Ogawa are tagging now, making it clear I have fallen behind on my NOAH since Ogawa was attacked by Kotaro Suzuki way back at the show with Shiozaki vs Fujita.
