N-1 field is interesting, & despite the absence of Kaito it's a surprisingly young field considering it's NOAH https://twitter.com/Hi5ame/status/1671833398946545664?s=20 YUMA ANZAI! YUKI YOSHIOKA! This is maybe a more exciting field to me than the G-1? It helps that there's less competitors. Yuma Anzai vs Shiozaki? Please. Kenoh vs Yoshioka? Oh yes. Also don't sleep on El Hijo del Dr Wagner Jr in that B Block, he'll have some bangers. I think the G-1 will have higher highs, but N-1 has fewer lows. And I'm a Yuma Anzai mark.

Boy, this coming week is quiet. A DDT Korakuen, Kenoh's anniversary show, a Stardom PPV with 2 cage matches, an extremely minor All Japan show & one of the couple of Michinoku Pro trips to Tokyo that won't air for 8 days but has a pretty rad sounding main event, & a Gatoh Move offer match. Fortunate for me because I have barely watched anything in the past week. The Kenoh thing is live on Youtube so that's something worth a watch even if you're not a regular NOAH viewer. 24/6/2023, Saturday 12pm JST/1pm AEST/4am BST/11pm EST/8pm PST Gatoh Move ChocoPro #317 Ichigaya Chocolate Square, Tokyo Exhibition 3 Minute Time Limit: Chie Koishikawa vs Nonoka Seto Kaori Yoneyama vs Masahiro Takanashi vs Tokiko Kirihara SAKI & Yuko Sakurai vs Sayaka & Sayaka Obihiro Asian Dream Tag Team Titles: Choun Shiryu & Shin Suzuki(c) vs Antonio Honda & Minoru Fujita Live on Youtube Tokyo Joshi Pro Live Tour In Spring '23 Night 9 Art Centre, Kobe Haru Kazashiro vs Kaya Toribami HIMAWARI vs Yuki Arai Nao Kakuta vs Toga Hikari Noa vs Shino Suzuki vs Yuki Kamifuku Hyper Misao & Shoko Nakajima vs Pom Harajuku & Raku Hakuchumu (Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi) vs Mahiro Kiryu & Yuki Aino Arisu Endo, Mizuki & Suzume vs Maki Itoh, Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto Uploaded later to Wrestle Universe 4pm JST/5pm AEST/8am BST/3am EST/12am PST Pro Wrestling NOAH Kenoh 15th Anniversary Show Tomoni Arena, Tokushima Hi69 vs Taishi Ozawa Daiki Inaba & Stallion Rogers vs THE TOUGH (Masa Kitamiya & Yoshiki Inamura) Dante Leon vs Ninja Mack AXIZ (Go Shiozaki & Katsuhiko Nakajima), GAINA & Mohammed Yone vs Kazuyuki Fujita, Saxon Huxley, Shuhei Taniguchi & Timothy Thatcher Atsushi Kotoge, Seiki Yoshioka & Super Crazy vs Chris Rideway, Daga & Yoshinari Ogawa Eita, El Hijo del Dr Wagner Jr, HAYATA & Kaito Kiyomiya vs GLG (Jack Morris, Jake Lee, Tadasuke & YO-HEY) Alejandro, AMAKUSA, Kazushi Sakuraba, Masato Tanaka & Naomichi Marufuji vs Kongo (Hajime Ohara, Kenoh, Manabu Soya, Masakatsu Funaki & Shuji Kondo) Live on Kenoh's Youtube channel!!!

Oh cool, I didn't realize Nick Wayne had a match on the DDT show. As best as I can tell this is his first time working for a Japanese promotion, he's had a few matches in the country before but they were all for GCW.

He was actually on the FREEDOMS 13th Anniversary show, which Cagematch has listed as "co-promoted" with GCW, but it wasn't their 13th Anniversary. But it was in the middle of the GCW Japan run.

Losing SBK and Takuma was a big blow, but they've had a couple of great rookies debuting so it's not that bad for them. NOAH losing Okada and Yano though, lol

Yeah, that's a big deal. I think the issue before was broadcasting rights with GAORA Sports showing it on TV, but it looks like they worked that out. Usually the content would be edited down and come back within a month or two, but it was still dumb to just have it disappear after a week.

MJeff posted:Forkboy I went and watched Okada vs. Kojima G1 23 in anticipation for Forb and now I'm in a big Kojima mood please help me. Well what you need to do is go make yourself a nice sandwich. I won't tell you what to put on it because hey, I don't know what your tastebuds like. But once you've done that, stick this on. Kojima vs Toshiaki Kawada from 2005 All Japan. I'd say this might be the best Kojima singles match? Others might say the Triple Crown/IWGP HW Title clash with Tenzan from a week later (hell of a week for the leader of Bread Club) & that's also worth watching, but I do have a thing for sub-30 minute matches right now. The match is built around a potential torch passing. Kawada is Kawada, the only pillar left standing in AJPW. He beats the gently caress out of Kojima. But our man is all heart. Genichiro Tenryu vs Satoshi Kojima from 2002 AJPW rules too. If you haven't seen Tenryu's post-NOAH split All Japan stuff, he brings it hard, it's remarkable & really loving good fun. There's also a 1998 G1 match with Kojima vs Hashimoto which is fantastic, Hashimoto was apparently a mentor to Kojima, & Kojima described him as his favourite person in a tweet that always stuck with me. There's also a later match, 2003, which was in All Japan rather than New Japan but I'd also recommend checking it out. Hope that's a good starting spot for Kojima. I didn't link it but the Kojima vs Tenzan match from February 2005 is a fantastic match, but it's on the longer side, I think everything I linked here is under 30 minutes.

DDT starting in roughly 90 minutes and the card looks pretty great. Doi will make Masada look great, Nick Wayne makes his debut and Harashima/Fujita should be good if Fujita can turn off D T.A mode. Tag title match could be pretty iffy but the main event should rule, YOSHIHIKO has worked really well with both guys in the past.quote:DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2023”, 25/06/2023
