And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I saw Keith Lee at a couple of EVOLVE shows and he is indeed huge and extremely agile. I don't really care how or what he tweets.

There's elements of Stardom's presentation that are a bit on the "appealing to the horniest part of women's wrestling fans that you really wish didn't exist" side but the wrestling is really good. Giulia is an obvious natural star, Utami Hayashishita carriers herself like a champion, Syuri is just this immense talent, Prominence have arrived & Suzu vs Giulia is going to loving rule so much, there's a case to be made that Stardom are now the #3 promotion in Japan after New Japan & Dragongate as far as drawing goes.

If you're going to start watching I'd really recommend starting at the 29th December 2021 show Dream Queendom, the main event World of Stardom Title match between Hayashishita & Syuri was a top 10 match of the year for me, others are even higher on it than me, it's currently got a Cagematch rating of 9.41. Top 5 matches are all really worth the time.

Why charge for one service when you've already got fans that were buying both?

Really tho they should combine and I'd probably buy it. I'm getting stingy on streaming services because there's just so many of them now and there's only 1 thing to watch on them

Same, I'm already paying for two wrestling streaming services and I get a lot of value out of both, but I'm not about to add a third just for a single promotion.

They absolutely should consolidate them but TV Asahi are part owners of NJPW World & Stardom World is partly owned by, IIRC, NTV. So it's just not happening. Yes, this absolutely sucks, and I would prefer it if it was packed in with NJPW World but it's like wishing for all the TV streaming services to consolidate.

That said, if you don't have it in your budget there's a free weekly 30 minute video on their Youtube which gives Clipped matches.

Or you can just Google shows and someone will have uploaded them to BiliBili or VK or the like. Or Bing them, found that is sometimes better for finding legally questionable videos of wrestling. That's what I did before I was confident that I'd get value from Stardom World, that I'd enjoy the product

Not really a budget problem, just a principal thing. Too many streaming services dilute the market and then you get a tenth of the content for the same price until you're literally paying the cost of cable TV again.

Wrestle Universe is the best bang for your buck with NOAH, DDT, TJPW, Ganbare Pro and a Ganbare Joshi promotion + they're putting some GCW on there. I hope other promotions start partnering up because there's just so much variety in that package even if they're all owned by the same company

Would it surprise you if someone used that to explain away Holocaust denial? It would not me.

I think his “they were not mine” comment was as if he was just saying poo poo back then (maybe under the influence of something).

He says that was he says was wrong and horrible so it sounds like he is trying to say that he did not really believe what he said.

Still does not excuse it but I got caught by that and that is just what I could come up with.

The most generous interpretation is that he was just repeating poo poo other people have said in a big compilation of conspiracies like some people do with Mount Shasta and the underground tunnels below Dallas Airport. Not necessarily stuff you believe but put together like an Iceberg post/video

Unfortunately, Holocaust denial and anti-Semitic poo poo should never be considered fun or repeatable in a neutral context, so Kendrick full on sucks anyway.

One time David Icke got super offended that someone asked him if reptilians were a metaphor for Jewish people.

Not because of the anti-Semitism, but because how dare they reduce the totally real lizard people to a mere metaphor.

Yep, when David Icke says that the Queen is really a 7 foot tall lizard in a 4 foot tall old lady skin, he really means what he says. No dogwhistling for him.

Another fun David Icke fact, is if you type his name into Google it comes up David Icke: Footballer. As opposed to David Icke: noted crazy person.
