Manami Toyota retired today. Loved her matches in CHIKARA.



She once defeated japanese table by landing headfirst on it so hard it went through the table(thus killing its immortal soul).

E: this is in Ditch's puro archives, no idea where that lives now.

Blessed be the tailors
The masks are cut to fit

Blessed be the woodworkers
The crosses and the gallows

Blessed be the forgers of iron
And the spikes and the barbwire

Blessed be the stone cutters
It took a quarry to bury the dreams
She and Akira Hokuto are the biggest reasons why I started watching joshipuro in the 90s. It’s a real end of an era.

Miranda Salinas. Wrestled Rea Ripley in the Mae Young Classic. Comes from Booker T's Reality of Wrestling promotion in Texas. A promotion/school for not allowing wrestlers outside of it but she has kinda broken away from it. Pretty decent for her experience level.

delilah doom beat veda scott and kylie rae beat su yung in the aaw women’s title tournament. sets up rachael ellering vs kylie rae and ivelisse vs delilah for tomorrow in lasalle.

veda managed to clock delilah like three times so that was rough but the crowd stayed with it. kylie rae got good reactions being a chicago girl and that clashed really well with su yung being a fully committed psychopath. that was a memorable match on a stacked show and su yung got a big please come back chant so hopefully they’ll bring some more women’s matches upstate

That match between her and Aja Kong in 1994 (The super long all day Big Egg Wrestling Universe Show) is incredible, Kong is just MURDERING her and she keeps fighting back. It was so loving good.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
I wish Kris hadn't started so late, she has so much natural charisma it's scary.

On the other hand, Kris starting late lets me know there's still time for me to quit my dead-end job and make a name for myself doing what I really love: terrorizing small Japanese children

I really hope video from Kagetsu's show a couple weeks back gets released somewhere. Kris' match with Kaho Kobayashi is probably the best of her matches I've ever seen.

Nice match, but still doesn't wash away the fact that ROH treats their women's division like garbage. Probably the biggest joke in the west, to be honest. And I don't see it ever changing. Their twitter account has teased promotions with STARDOM and stuff, but I don't think STARDOM wants much to do with them, especially since ROH seems to like sending over talent that tries to kill the STARDOM talent (Mandy, Kelly), and Kris Wolf having to curtain jerk in the one match she had over there as a guest.

Yeah, I'm vaguely curious as well. On one hand, its not impossible. On the other hand its also pretty unlikely, since Io's probably going to retire soon after her current stint in STARDOM. She's not really the main focal point of STARDOM like she used to be, her pathway to WWE is shut permanently (unless they bring her in as a coach, similar to Del Rey), GFW is a joke, ROH's Women's Division is a joke, LU is dead.

She hasn't expressed much of an interest in working indies over here, along with there being talk about her considering retirement soon, due to her body starting to break apart. Dave's also said that she is suffering from sort of heart condition, which may complicate things.

There was plans for a ROH/STARDOM mini tournament in the US October/November time leading up to Final Battle to crown a WOH Champion at one stage. With the Final being the Final Battle opener. But obviously that seems to be dropped.

Blame Delirious and him pushing his god awful girl friend and whatever Kelly Klein's got on them. Stardom knew they partnered with the wrong people.

Besides the Kong stuff what's the biggest/best first time or close to first time match SHIMMER can book this weekend?

Speaking of Mia Yim Wrestlecircus uploading the match to Youtube reminded me how I annoyed I was with the shortness of her match with Racheal Ellering where they showed chemistry.

Uglier on the inside.

From the WON:
"Emma, who will go by Tenille Dashwood, her real name, was in talks with Stardom to start when her non-compete ended, but negotiations have fallen through as her asking price of $2,000 per match, plus first class tickets and full creative control weren't thought to be economically or business prudent by that company."

I mean I guess you gotta get those highball offers out there and see if anyone bites but lmao either way

Apparently those rates aren't really that high, but Stardom can't afford it.

Yeah, Emma/Tenille's using Cody Rhodes' agent, isn't she? I feel like you wouldn't use them if you wanted to pull a Ryback and highball yourself out of business. (Didn't someone say you could get Cody and all three members of The Elite for what The Ryback was asking?)

Ryback - 5 Slammies.

Cody and The Elite - Only 2 Slammies.
