I'm guessing Gamma wants one more Osaka06 run before he retires. I wonder how long he'll be there or if he's just dropping in.

That’s precisely why he went independent before he retired imo. CIMA’s not getting lifted from the persona non grata list, and Gamma will wring every payday possible before his retirement.

Kind of bummed about how much less excited I am for CyberFest this year as opposed to last, to the point where I'm wondering whether it's worth putting a GDT together or leaving it for someone else, considering I won't even be watching it live in favour of Dominion. There are some matches that will absolutely be bangers, but is countered by what I consider negatives
- The interpromotional matches this year not being as exciting as Kiyomiya/Inamura vs 37KAMIINA or DDT vs Kongoh was last year
- TJPW still being on their own island and not interracting with the ladies of DDT or GanJo, which goes so far as Maya Yukihi and YuuRI not even getting spots on the card
- GanPro in general is still seen as an afterthought, they have representatives on the preshow and their champion is doing his lovely DDT gimmick instead of his decent GanPro gimmick. FFS give us Imanari and Keisuke Ishii in a singles match for the belt instead of making the Pheromones match an 8 man tag, give your smallest promotion some shine ahead of them running Ota-ku
- The KO-D belt isn't even being defended like last year, instead Endo is in an interpromotional 6-man tag. It doesn't speak much to how his reign is going that he is didn't merit a title match on this massive card. It's not like Burning is hurting for members, they could have slotted Okada into the 6-man match easily
- NOAH in general, but giving their title shot away to an opening card act from a bigger company doesn't speak well of their roster, no matter how cool Koji is

No doubt I'll very much enjoy it when I watch the VOD, but there's really not much that makes me want to watch this over Okada vs Jay or Shingo vs Taichi

The possibility of them vs Honda, Ashino & Tachibana & then STRONGHEARTS is extremely tasty

But also that Kobashi produce show man. Fuuuuuuuck MiSu & Nomura tagging. Against the ever under-rated Mashimo & Ito too. And the main event should kick some serious booty.

It's funny that the most exciting show of the week of Dominion & Cyberfight Festival is a Kenta Kobashi produce show though. Oh, & I remembered to actually check now & it airs on the 24th on G+. I always forget to check G+ because it's mostly showing old NOAH & AJPW. Which is cool but I don't have nearly the time to keep up with old wrestling. G+ is a weird channel though, was looking at the schedule at they are showing this: JFA 45th All Japan U-12 Soccer Championship

A loving 6 month old repeat of an under 12s fitba tournament. Bizarre.

I accept that I'm an outlier but while the top 2 matches & the KOPW match on Dominion should all be great, I really prefer the look of the Cyberfight Festival card. It's obviously hurt by a lack of singles matches & by Pheromones & Kendo Kashin, but Dominion has House of Torture & a Doc Gallows singles match so that's a push. Go vs Kojima will slap, metaphorically & literally. Ditto the PoP Title match. Sasaki vs Kenoh will be great because Kenoh is unimpeachable & it'll be great nonsense. ASUKA & 37KAMIINA vs CDK & Disaster Box will be terrific, Eruption vs GanPro is far cooler than almost anything on the first half of Dominion except maybe the LIJ Bullet Club trios, I am morbidly fascinated to see if Kaito is good enough to drag something decent out of RVD before being pinned by him, & Akiyama, Endo & Higuchi vs Nakajima, Kotoge & Inamura is :goodshit:

Of course I'll watch neither live because I am not waking up at 6am on a Sunday, dinnae be daft.

Kazusada Higuchi vs Takanori Ito from 2016 Wrestle 1, one of Ito's earliest matches. It's in the Wrestle 1 Dojo, which is where GLEAT filmed some of their early no-crowd matches from before they really started running regularly.

Match is nothing blow away, but it's fun. Higuchi with some heavy chops

It just occured to me that I am the mythical casual viewer, but only for All Japan. I don't pay attention to the storylines, I just like the cool matches. Like just looking at the match graphics for todays show, why the hell are Honda and Ashino teaming together again? I remember they came out together at the end of a recent show, but didn't they have a real bad split and a sweet Last Man Standing match only a couple of months ago?

Oh well, Team BJW are here and they are cool as gently caress

e: wow, they win their first match, get exactly one match break and are back out here for the semi finals
