I've watched Abe vs Nomura 4 times since it aired a couple of days ago and sent it to everyone I know that watches wrestling, really takes me back to the first Abe match I saw back in 2021 when he took on Hikaru Sato for Jr Battle of Glory and both guys forgot it's supposed to be safe. Makes me all the more annoyed that SUWAMA had the loving genius to squash him in 20 seconds after a single dropkick during Royal Road

DG Future class of 2024 young boys announced. Akihiro Sahara (23) is a big boi, Homare Kato (19) will probably have to get a name change quickly (or Yoshiki Kato gets a character), and Dai Tsujiguchi (20) has managed to have an even less catchy name than Daiki Yanagiuchi.

It'd be nice to see all 3 get debuts. Though with Daiki's debut pushed to this year, Ryoya in the summer, and Nishikawa/TNR coming back from Mexico recently, it doesn't feel like 2023 was starved for debuts even with Ryoya being the only 2023 trainee to make it. If anything it'll probably just mean more pre-show Future matches on the network.

Eruption will be vacating the KO-D 6 man titles when Akai retires on the 12th, there will be a one night tournament the next week to crown the new champs. They've also got one more defence of the AJPW 6 man titles to get through before they vacate those as well

Schedule time. We've got a Triple Crown title match between 2 of the best wrestlers in the world! We have a lot of Junior Tag League. A Dragongate Fukuoka double header. A lot of NOAH, a lot, with plenty of "where the gently caress do these guys find foreigners? Terry Yaki?". Another weird Kazuki Hirata title match where he has to help lonely university student Takeshi Masada cheer up. And then the week ends with a couple of TJPW title matches. Plus Yuka Sakazaki has been announced as returning from injury so I guess gets to start her countdown to "graduating" from TJPW

7. Road To Ultimate Party 2023! Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA Vs Yuki Ueno & MAO

A video meeting was held between Kazuki Hirata and Takeshi Masada to agree on the match stipulation for their double title match. Masada was unable to be there in person because he also had a college class to attend that day. Hirata announced the match stipulation is called “Let’s Enjoy! Everyone Will Have A Great Time Death Match”. Hisaya Imabayashi tried to make Hirata explain what the rules are but Hirata would only give non-commital answers about wanting to see Masada have fun. The reason he came up with the idea is because he found out Masada has no friends in college. Masada said that does not matter because he does not need friends. But when Imabayashi asked him more questions about his loneliness Masada quickly admitted if he had friends he would like to go party and play basketball with them. Imabayashi was so upset to learn this that he encouraged Hirata to help Masada regain his smile. Hirata promised the match will make Masada learn how to enjoy having fun, expand his horizons and leave him with happy memories.

Got real mad at the first half of the spoilered part and really happy at the second. Even if I'm not watching All Japan, I'm glad they're giving their young talented guy a chance to build a proper title reign instead of just jumping back to the tried and true option.
