Emi spends an hour talking about how great Yuka is

I think you mean, she wants 30 minutes to make a point about Yuka Sakazaki.

Emi being the most guilty of going way over time despite constantly complaining that their streams are too long is perfect


lol she just brought up how annoyed she was that Jim Ross buried her Freddie Mercury gimmick 2 seconds into her AEW debut

Playing Getting Over It on a phone might just be more hardcore than the deathmatch she's going to do.

it's true, the physical pain of a deathmatch is nothing compared to the emotional pain caused by Getting Over It.

greetings sweeties, let me give you a back massage. for i am a whiz!


I've been watching some early TJPW stuff to try and acquaint myself a bit with the wrestlers and compare how years of experience improve the ring work.

Seeing Miyu in full idol dance mode is weeeeeiiiird. Is there a turn that happened at some point? The tonal shift is dramatic (though the kicks are still there).

E: on this same note, Old McDonald made more sense when Kamiyu had star and bars gear

I think I've been able to pin down this shift to late May/June of 2017, but I don't know any good way of figuring out if there was a catalyst for the change (unless it has something to do with this UUG press conference...)

Why do I care? Who knows...

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.

Miyu's always been the kind of person who will kick the head off someone and two hours later she'll be on the DDT Ameba show exposing how goofy and dorky she is because she's somehow gotten better than the Up Up Girls at their own choreography but can't spell the days of the week. She's in the same camp as Daniel Brian and Cesaro

Emi was also a founder of ICE Ribbon which was the big thing before Stardom took off, so many another independent alliance? Nanae and Emi are big catalysts for almost every major Joshi name in Wrestling right now, between the two of them they either trained or mentored nearly all of the AEW or WWE talent, Nanae and Asuka might not have gotten along so well but Passion Red is still where she broke out, and Asuka adopted the Shirai sisters. Emi's a lot more direct, her training lead to Shida and Riho directly with Mei and the Choco Pro roster.

Also interesting/notable, Emi Sakura will be on the Stardom Budokan show this week, albeit just in a battle royale, but it's only her second ever appearance in Stardom according to Cagematch, & that was 8 years ago.

Topic is going to be Stardom.

But it's going deep into shared history.

I was mostly struck by her ring entrance choreography in the early years. I really like her theme tune, understated as it is, and her current serious approach reflects her in-ring prowess better.

Get Mei Suruga into a high speed match now that the SEAdLINNNG/Ice Ribbon alliance makes that unlikely in SEAd.

(there's already a Jungle Kyona/Yuna Mizumori match but I don't think it's been reuploaded to the new Stardom World)
