What a loving geek. Yeah, what the 2 time GHC HW champ needs is to be Mutoh's bag career, gently caress off Kashin or whoever.

*ahem* God that out of the way, here's this week coming's schedule in Japanese wrestling. It's pretty lowkey week, NOAH are touring northern Japan, Stardom start the Cinderella Tournament, meanwhile New Japan, DDT & Tokyo Joshi Pro are all off to America for the Wrestlemania weekend festivies. We might actually start hearing about Kota Ibushi's plans for the future soon, but who even knows with that weirdo, he's great. Anyway, for your Match of the Week On Paper™, I'm giving you 2 choices: All Japan giving us Kaito Ishida vs Ryo Inoue should be violent, Inoue is turning into a little kick boy & Kaito's DG theme song literally mentioned him being a kick boy, or else 2AW's Openweight Title match between Ayato Yoshino & GLEAT's Tetsuya Izuchi.

Muto continues his brutal bullying of Kaito even in retirement, successfully convincing US companies to let Kaito tour to be squashed there too while letting him be convinced the exposure is worth it

WWE he'd obviously lose to Reigns. Impact Josh Alexander kills him. ROH and AEW are Blackpool Combat beatdown turf. Tyrus sits on him in NWA. And in GCW, well Masha and Gage are both too good for him, better let Janela deathmatch squash him in under 3 minutes

With every new Kaito humiliation I just think of Mutoh’s off-hand comment to Darby during their post-show presser as they left, “what are you, a young boy?” and Darby just laughing it off, probably thinking “you call me a young boy again and I’ll drive your wheelchair down a staircase”

Watched the first 2 parts, just coming in to say "Wrestle and Romance is a trillion times cooler than Wrestle Association-R as a promotion name", & also I have to shout out the current International Jr HW champion, Hikaru Sato, who really doesn't get his due as being a really reliable hand who isn't the flashiest Jr going but I almost always enjoy watching him go. Just not in YMZ...
