I ended up with an Asuka shirt today because I was waiting for Nanae to come out for her meet and greet and Makoto shouted "hey you buy an Asuka shirt" at me so I did. It was only ¥1000

See, this is me finding out for the first time that Yukihi isn't actually part of Prominence, which shows how much attention I paid a month ago when the news dropped they were all leaving Ice Ribbon.

First Color's show main event and I guess we can officially say that Hotta had issues with AWG management and not the talent.

IceAgeComing
Jan 29, 2013

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
https://twitter.com/GPU_COLORS/status/1477082471451996163

First matches from the first show of the Color's unit announced. They also announced a list of wrestlers that'll work the show: freelance ex-AWG wrestlers Miyuki Takase, Kakeru Sekiguchi. Sakuran Bonita and Yuna Manase, Momo Tani (also ex-AWG) and Rydeen Hagane from PURE-J, Yuna Mizumori from Gatoh Move, Bambi from 2AW, Sakura Hirota from WAVE and freelancers Hibiscus Mii, Momoka Hanazono and Makoto.

What's notable is Yumiko Hotta and Riko Kawahata being on the show: Hotta left AWG in August 2020 under some controversy and then Kawahata left right afterwards and ended up affiliated with her which caused an issue with AWG until it came out that she actually wasn't on a written contract but a verbal thing so they couldn't prove anything. The fact that she's on a show with this group of people would suggest that any issues on the AWG side were with management and not with the wrestlers which is probably a very good sign when it comes to this ex-AWG group working promotions that work with Hotta (currently SEAdLINNNG and Marvelous: the former booked Miyuki Takase on every show until they started working with Hotta).

We also have our final confirmed movements of the ex-AWG roster: Miku Aono, Mari, Ayano Irie and Misa Matsui are remaining with AWG while everyone else is leaving. Ayumi Hayashi has announced that she has retired to focus on a childcare career while Mii has said that she'll probably not wrestle again. Momo Tani is the only person to actually sign with another promotion (PURE-J); there's a core group that'll work the new GPU Color's shows (SAKI, Hikari Shimizu, Yuko Sakurai and Rina Amikura although the latter is not working the first show because of a prior commitment) and everyone else is freelance or have yet to announce their intentions. AWG has said that they'll do shows that are both pro wrestling but also not pro wrestling at the same time: who on earth knows what that means - they've also said that no one signed to them can work outside dates anymore which is why a lot of people have left and why the people that have remained are notable.

Stardom Dream Queendom was a great show, obviously Utami vs Syuri is as much a must watch as anything in 2021 wrestling, but Giulia vs Konami & Tam Tall Saya are also very good, Hazuki & Momo vs Mayu & Iroha is good but the heel Momo did get in the way of the match a bit. That said, Momo looks like a surly teenage goth kid now which is very funny even if I'm still unsure why exactly she turned.

High Speed & Artist Title matches are both real good too. Definitely recommend it. But especially the main event which is in the discussion for best women's match of the year with Rina Suzu, Arisa Nanae & Iroha Syuri for me.

Watching as much of the SEAdLINNNG show as I can before ZERO1 & I get the rules of High Speed matches but I am unsure I could explain them to someone in a way that didn't sound insane.

"So you need to rebound off the ropes before a pinfall, unless it's a roll up or similar snap pinfall. And the 3 counts are done hyper-fast. Oh and the ref just starts dropkicking the competitors & poo poo whenever she fancies it."

I kind of love it but it is loving nonsense.

And the hardcam on this show looks terrible. The white balance is utter dogshit, in a way that makes me nostalgic for 2004 ROH DVD.
