Kind of random news for Grand Princess '24: https://twitter.com/tjpw2013/status/1762039823458820324 Former AKB48 member Ami Yumoto will make her debut, tagging with Nao against opponents TBD. YouTube press conference video thing here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxdellSAmew This feels like a "sorry for last time Nao" I know nothing about her other than she did Tofu Pro (as Komanechi Yumoto) back when that was a thing so she's at least been in a ring before. Random clip from YT of her in Tofu Pro (she's the one in black): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWlDdq_0tHU HamburgerTownUSA fucked around with this message at 10:53 on Feb 26, 2024 |

I'm glad Poi is healed up but I was happy to have had a break from "bye poi" for a while I hope everyone stays healthy this year, even the people who annoy me

I believe she has a chronic health condition (graves disease). Her return speech was very....sad. she spoke about her thoughts of quitting. Bushiroad also had her working fantasticamania backstage in some role.

True but fwiw that's kind of a loaded translation and it's more like she admires/appreciates Rossy's help on her way to stardom, she doesn't say anything about feeling obligated to stick with him. The overall tone of the article is kind of "You'd think she'd go do Rossy's thing but guess what, going overseas is also in the cards, how about that"

I hope Rossi takes Sonny with him. He can have Giulia and Mayu. They can't steal Tam tho, I want Rina Yamashita to come back to Stardom as the deathmatch queen and I would trust nobody else to do exploding barbed wire death matches but her

She's just under a longer contract than the year-to-year ones that all end in March because of her movie. Length isn't really known besides that

I promised I'd preview the cart to my non-wrestling fan aunt. AZM is one of those Japanese wrestlers who started when she was a child. And lest you think I'm being hyperbolic, her 10th anniversary is in July. She's 21. Stardom homegrown, and a really talented technical wrestler. Mina is 15 years older and has 4 years less experience. She's from TJPW originally, very charismatic, and really stepped up into her role higher on the card. Should be a good match

It doesn't say that they're wrestling each other, just that both of them will be there.

Stardom homegrown, and a really talented technical wrestler. To add a little more AZM is considered a High Speed wrestler in Stardom. High Speed is its own "division" with its own High Speed title. AZM held that title longer than anyone else ever has, and was never pinned or submitted to lose it. She lost it in a 3 way match where Saki Kashima pinned Fukigen Death. That's about as prestigious a run as you can get. She's insanely talented and can do pretty much anything in the ring and everything she does is fast and smooth and clean. She's absolutely awesome to watch Mina is kinda the cheesecake of the Stardom roster but being a hot former swimsuit model is not who she is in the ring. When that bell rings she's a killer. She goes for the knees and does a Figure 4 Leglock and when that doesn't work she has a million different DDT variants she can hit people with along with some serious kicks and cool pinning combinations. She's extremely well rounded (lol) and can have a great match with anyone. Last year she was briefly the Wonder of Stardom champion (second highest singles title) and Goddess of Stardom tag team champion with Mariah May

TJPW's Australian trainee Kira will be making her debut on March 3rd as Kira Summer in a tag with Nao against rookie Chika Nanase and Arisu. https://twitter.com/tjpw2013/status/1763126968483025365 Also lol that "updated" profile pic for Arisu they started using about a week ago, which is already outdated by like 2 months and 4 hairstyles. Chika had her debut a few days ago against Moka, which TJPW put up on their YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vH7x3ZYbozM

It's good that they're stacking the rest of the card because those tourney matches don't look great. Hopefully they all bring their A game and maybe someone will surprise me. Saya/Saki could be okay?

Actually I wonder if an iwgp womens title match in a new japan ring is part of the price for sareee She hasn't been shy about her desire for that specific title because of her admiration for inoki.
