2nd'd. Kenoh & Kaito have an intensely odd older brother/younger brother energy together & it rules. Like when Kaito goes on some dating show & Kenoh starts ranting & raving about him. Also fun to see Kenoh training with his trainer.

Bushiroad started signing people to real money deals so it will be harder to pick people off even when the contracts are up. It's not a case where WWE can offer their usual NXT deal and only the girls who sell the most photobooks would be taking a pay cut anymore. She's one of the people Rossy is building around.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opTXd541ZuU&t=3042s

I was lucky enough to be in attendance for this. Yoshiko & Sareee work together like a team that have been together for many, many years and Best Friends are one of the best tag teams in the world. One thing I'm glad for in 2020 is that Sareee is still in Japan and not doing NXT shows yet.

Three real good matches, going to say my favourite was the Haoh/Nioh match. Inter-stable matches are always fun, and the result was far less in doubt than Soya/Tadasuke

Going to HM this. Went in with extremely high expectations given the four involved and don't feel they quite met them. Still worth watching for sure, but not MOYTC in my book

So how long before Yoshiko assaults someone else and effectively ends her career? gently caress her.

From Dragon Gate's final show of the year at Kobe Sambo Hall, 12/27

HM: Royale Sambo
The biggest underdog victory of the year, a shocking finish!

HM: Dragongate Gen (YAMATO, Kzy, Keisuke Okuda, Yosuke♡Santa Maria, & U-T) vs Masquerade (Shun Skywalker, Kota Minoura, Jason Lee, Dragon Dia, & La Estella)

Both these teams have real good chemistry with each other, and it's fun watching Masquerade develop their chemistry as a unit over the course of the past month.

What purpose does this serve? If you don't want to watch Yoshiko wrestle then that is entirely understandable. Don't. But she's a very talented wrestler, this isn't the first match of hers to be nominated in this thread and won't be the last. The odds of someone watching SEAdLINNNG and not being aware of the assault on Act Yasukawa made pretty low considering the promotion was started by Nanae Takahashi, who left Stardom after that incident.

Anyway, so this isn't just me being off-topic

DDT D-ou Grand Prix Night 2
Akito vs Konosuke Takeshita

If not for the double whammy of Cyberagent buying NOAH meaning I needed a Wrestle Universe sub and COVID meaning there was little in the way if wrestling to watch from March until June this year I'd probably not be watching any DDT. I'd dismissed them as a company whose big shows were worth checking out but otherwise weren't the effort. But they did a weekly show at a time when really it was just them, AJPW and 2AW running so had the time, I had the service and I gradually got invested. Into the stories, into young boys, the vets and everyone in between. The factions, the ludicrous comedy, it all just clicked. Feels lame that it took a pandemic to get me to this point but I'm glad I did. The build to Peter Pan on the weekly show was fantastic, if you didn't watch I don't think you can really understand how legitimately great the feud between ALL OUT and a doll was built, culminating in that fantastic cinematic match between Takeshita and Yoshihiko at Peter Pan night 1.

Anyway, Akito and Takeshita are both terrific, this is extremely good and DDT really is worth watching

nth to these. Could have easily nominated the other 2 for motyc as well but really, the Utami/Momo match was the best of the 3. I legit thought Giulia killed Syuri with that package piledriver in the ring. Looked like she landed right on her head.
