Crossposting from the DG thread because this is an insane reveal.

Dragongate's rookie class of 2022 included a guy named Masaharu Eto, who had been training at their dojo for over a year. Masaaki Mochizuki very abruptly let him join a M2K reunion team after Eto saved him from a chairshot, and most people were confused about why they'd give a total rookie a big shot like that.

Tonight at the Toryumon Reunion show they just revealed the real reason: The shoot name of the rookie we'd known as Eto for the last several months is Ryoto Mochizuki, Masaaki's son.

Not surprised at all. Seems as though trying to start a pro wrestling scene in China is cursed.

Wasn't OWE running out of Cambodia for a while instead? I think after StrongHearts joined GLEAT it was all over anyway. That was their anchor.

Ren Ayabe? Yeah, he's pretty good for how green he is, think he's still less than 2 years since his debut. He's been teaming with Kohei Sato & Shuji Ishikawa in All Japan of late & I hope their experience of working as bigger dudes can rub off on him. A legit 200cm tall is something All Japan covet.

Honestly, since JTO started TAKA has pumped out some very good prospects, men & women.

Wish I could be watching this live but my internet has been going up & down constantly for the last 24 hours so trying to watch would be infuriating. But I'll catch it later. I'm really excited for the opener purely because Team BJW rules. Wish the 2AW team had better opponents, Mashimo & Hanami are real good
