MOTYC: You Are Cordially Invited

With no promotions running a bunch of wrestlers from the BritWres scene including a few familiar faces come together to create a cinematic match full of action, violence, surprises and wacky hijinks to create something quite weird yet wonderful. It's only 25 mins long and definitely worth your time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_m1TAgds9A

This only needs one more nomination to make MOTYC now. I really encourage people to give it a try, it's basically a wrestling version of Battle Royale

Really good tag match. Aoyagi's really improved in the past year and Miyahara is still amazing. Ishikawa & Suwama are still a great team.

SEAdLINNNG 2021 Opening Match
Best Friends (Arisa Nakajima & Tsukasa Fujimoto) vs Oni Ni Kanabo (Sareee & Yoshiko)

It's a non-title match between 2 of the best tag teams in women's wrestling & probably in all wrestling. And one of the last Sareee matches before she takes a distressingly early & hopefully temporary retirement in Orlando. Some nice big, meaty strikes, match flies by, can't really ask for more.

2nd

also not an HM or anything but I recommend checking out the Las Fresas de Egoistas vs. Honori Hana/Aja Kong/Rina Yamashita match from this show. The Asuka/Aja exchanges owned and made me want a singles match between them as Aja's one big good singles match of the year

Yeah, that match was alright but definitely stepped up a gear when Asuka got in the ring in general.

I realised today that I think Kaori Yoneyama is the only wrestler I've seen so far in 2021 as much as the Dragon Gate roster, which is an odd thought but she is very prolific.
