Hayabusa keeps telling people he wants one more match. tbh he's probably as mobile as Hulk Hogan is anyway.

Bottom line: I don't think he can walk well enough to participate in any physical strenuous activities, of which professional wrestling is included. What a mark, wrestling is a work.

Remember the rumors of the W-1 tour in West Virginia? Some details are here and they're going a little further afield as well. http://apwawrestling.com/ Belle Vernon is the Pittsburgh exurb ROH used to run regularly and I'll definitely be there. Front Row seats are only 20 bucks I'm not really a huge W-1 fan but it's dumb to pass up at that price. The indie they're partnering with that I've never heard of before is apparently owned by Don West.

Why are they touring west virginia I'm so loving confused but of course I'll go.

When did Don West start an indie company? Really all the answers raise more questions.

Details are sketchy right now but AJPW is starting a streaming service for ¥777 a month. http://av.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/20150601_704753.html Unfortunately, according to enuhito it's currently limited to Japan, and Voices of Wrestling said that they're technically a new company reformed after Akiyama took over so no '90s archives. Personally have no interest even if subscription is possible but it's probably a smart move for them to at least attempt since they had no iPPV to begin with.

Ganbare Pro, a D-level indy that's an offshoot of a C-level indy that's an offshoot of DDT, ran an angle to set up a match between two masked characters, Mr. No and J-Soul Pandita III IV. There are no words: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qvtoiva6Fc#t=253

The last three Infinity's finally hit DailyMotion. The delay is super frustrating with this supposed to be the build up towards Kobe World and we can now only see shows from a month ago about KING OF GATE. I don't know what the rundown is between TV Asahi and Samurai TV, but I guess maybe this would affect those house show NJPW World events?

It's looking like it'll be about 15 bux a month but it does include NJPW, DDT, BJW, and a handful of other promotions.

DDT Pro used to be on Samurai TV iirc and that's all that matters to me, if they go up on the service gonna instantly buy that.

Not sure if it's worth bumping this thread for, but IVP Videos has their July Purobox available now. The first one was a pretty awesome value for $15. Scroll up to see what discs were included.

Today there was a special card in Japan on the 10th anniversary of the death of puroresu legend Shinya Hashimoto. Daichi Hashimoto, Shinya's son, produced the main event and fought in the main event, where he lost to New Japan's Yuji Nagata. (Hashimoto is with IGF.) Other highlights included Masahiro Chono and Keiji Mutoh discussing the formation of the "Three Musketeers" plus Satoshi Kojima using the Kesagiri Chop + DDT in tribute to Hashimoto. In spirit of the anniversary, here are some good Hashimoto matches: Hashimoto vs Riki Choshu, 1997 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHpO7y11Xtc Hashimoto & Nagata vs. Misawa & Akiyama -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97MIbYaSg9o Shinya Hashimoto & Naoya Ogawa vs Keiji Mutoh & Toshiaki Kawada -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq2-ztYmrjg In other news, Keiji Mutoh announced the WRESTLE-1 GRAND PRIX 2015 beginning in August. There will be 19 WRESTLE-1 wrestlers participating as well as NOSAWA Rongai and MAZADA. You can bet dollars to donuts that the tournament will be used in an attempt to get over newly minted singles champion KAI. Panama Red fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Jul 13, 2015 |

Why the hell do NOSAWA and MAZADA get work *everywhere* (except New Japan)? I've heard they are good at making friends and connections, but maybe a complete lack of heat and good matches would eventually catch up with them? Ever?
