Does anyone know what's up with Xia Brookside? She hasn't been on recent Stardom shows and she isn't booked for any of the upcoming shows either

Looks like Club Venus had all their Triangle Derby matches already so I assume she's gone home. I hate how Stardom tournaments are booked at such inconsistent paces for each competitor, but I guess it makes sense in this case if she had other obligations.

I have no idea how they would know this but people on the stardom subreddit think she has returned to the UK to get married.

Well if that's the case then I wish her the best and I hope she'll be back. Club Venus is a lot of fun

I'm sure that if I sat through one of the press conferences someone might mention her absence but I can't sit through those

I know that Japan has their own way of doing things but it would be really cool if the shows on Stardom World had short promos once in a while and we could at least get a kayfabe explanation

It's not that big a deal of course but it's weird seeing Mina and Mariah on the new shows and in the graphics for upcoming shows but Xia isn't there and nobody says anything

They used to have short subtitled backstage promos between most matches, then some matches, and now they barely ever happen. It's an unfortunate change as the promos were generally fun and did help me follow things.

Speaking of difficult to follow, as far as I can tell this is the situation with one night of Triangle Derby remaining.

Red Block

Neo Stardom Army 9 (facing Lollipop)
Queens Quest 9 (facing Classmates)
Cosmic Angels 8 (facing God's Eye)

Blue Block

God's Eye 10 (facing CA)
Prominence 8 (facing DDM)

Neo Stardom Army will almost certainly land on 11 points and I could see Classmates spoiling QQ. Not sure how a tiebreaker would be handled if not. I guess if God's Eye beat Cosmic Angels and either NSA or QQ advance the finals would be a rematch of a draw rather than a match which either team won which is preferable. Likely a rad match too.

Maybe if the Red block ends in a tie they'd do a three way final? I'm not sure.

Very interesting matchups this year. Lots of tag partners and stablemates against each other. Hanan/MIRAI, which could be a generational rivalry.

It looks like they don't offer a native Android TV app, but I guess I could sideload an Android APK to my Shield TV for easy TV viewing, but has anyone tried casting from a laptop or something? Does it work reasonably well?

Bringing back this old post to say that I saw in the Notifications section of the app that they have an Android TV app now.

Giulia vs Mai Sakurai
AZM vs Hazuki
Mariah May vs Rina
Syuri vs Tomoka Inaba
Momo Kohgo vs Saki Kashima
Saya Kamitani vs Mayu Iwatani

Tam Nakano vs Himeka
Natsuko Tora vs Ruaka
MIRAI vs Hanan
Saya Iida vs Miyu Amasaki
Natsupoi vs Mina Shirakawa
Koguma vs Thekla
Hina vs XX

I don't love the ten-minute time limit (and is there over-the-top-rope elimination too?) but there should be some fun sprints. I guess the rules make things less predictable too, which is alright.

Assuming this is for the Cinderella tournament? I quite like the 10 minute rule, means these matches have a different feel from the 5☆GP because everything has to be a sprint. Like, you probably won't get any ****½ matches but it'll be fun
