Emi coming home and in prime form with this very chaotic match. ChocoPro always gets just that much better when Emi's back.

Always interesting to see her incorporate her AEW schtick in an arena where she has full trust and complete control.

Inaba was also in a really good tag match in the previous TAKATaichi show. It was her and Aoi vs STARDOM's Maika and MIRAI. They beat the absolute gently caress out of each other

She was also in IMO the best Stardom tag team match of the year teaming with Syuri against Momo/SLK. She's really just insanely great already.

Michinoku Pro Michinoku 2022 Tokyo Conference Vol. 2 ~ Kotsuniku Aihamu
Bad Boy (Fujita "Jr" Hayato, Ken45 & Manjimaru) vs Kazuki Hashimoto, MUSASHI & Yasutaka Oosera

Point 1, Hayato may have forgotten wrestling is a work on his time off with cancer. Either that or someone between MUSASHI & Oosera stole his girlfriend. Particularly Oosera who got absolutely murdered on the finish

Point 2, Kazuki Hashimoto didn't get enough time in the ring today, but when he did appear it was good.

Point 3, Yasutaka Oosera was a really sympathetic underdog here. Really this match was about Oosera & Hayato.

Really good, albeit a bit gnarly at times.

There is nothing else in wrestling like this annual absolute loving nonsense that Michinoku Pro do. Chris Brookes as Ivan Drago is one of the less silly things. Sasuke continues his apparently unsuccessful attempt to end up in a wheelchair with the most bewildering & stupid bumps.

Is it good? Does it matter? It's essential viewing, wrestling as spectacle in the purest sense.

Really debated this one because the match wasn't that bad, but the finish was botched to an amazing level. Spoiler ahead Arez pins Villano III Jr, Pierro counts 3 and holds 3 fingers up. Commentary calls it a kickout at 2. Maybe 10 seconds later Arez's music starts playing. After a bit of music, Pierro holds up 2 fingers and the music stops. The match continues for another minute or so and Arez pins Villano III Jr for the win.
