Also hopefully the KUDO appearance means he's one step closer to coming back to the ring for one last run, he was one of my favourite guys from early 2010s DDT

Was finally able to watch the Princess Cup finals yesterday and all the weird takes of "Maki Itoh is not good" that have been popping up were extremely weird to me before but now they are even more baffling.

The people who say Maki Itoh isn't good are basing it entirely on her social media presence

alot of people just saw a clip of her giving some weak microphone shots in AEW and decided she couldn't wrestle.

maki itoh is also a wrestler who has the biggest fan base and anti fan base made up entirely of people who have never seen a maki itoh match.

Yuu has been representing Eve pretty much since she first left to go abroad in 2019. She's functionally a freelancer in Japan but considers Eve her home promotion.

Is it a pandemic thing that she hasn't worked there more and there's a formal relationship, or is it just that she liked her time at EVE and decided that instead of being a straight Joshi freelancer she'd rep a foreign promotion? Because she's had more matches in nearly every other promotion she's ever worked.

No clue, but the Japanese she uses on all her social media profiles indicates that there's a formal relationship. But yeah, I assume it's mostly that it's hard to pop over and wrestle more for Eve with the pandemic and all.

Other than Wrestle Queendom 3 there haven't been any Eve shows to wrestle on for about 18 months.

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
they had a show a couple of weeks ago and have another in like two weeks although they look very uninspiring and one of the owners being transphobic doesn't exactly make one excited to support them.

One of the promotions that probably loses out most from the Resistance Gallery closing since it costs them a venue in a central London location that was cheap to rent and always had a ring set up so the costs were low plus that sort of dingy location actually fit the vibe they tried to go for very well.

Great card with the first Utami/Takumi match plus Momo/Starlight Kid where Momo wins her block if she beats Kid.

But gently caress all that, the biggest match of the year is happening as 0-82 Lady C takes on Waka Tsukiyama, someone she can actually beat. Will Lady C get her first win and bring on a new age in Joshi wrestling?

They very quickly switched the titles from Rin and Mio to Mika and Manami before Hibiki and Andras got their challenge in so they at the very least don't want to book the Marvelous and ex-Marvelous talent in the same match.
