Yes. It's weird seeing Rina as the veteran in a match, but she's been at it since 2017 (albeit part-time because she's still in school), whereas Miran debuted during COVID

These guys had the crowd going NUTS! Jeff Cobb is one of my eternal favs and Tsuji has really grown into his character. Really fun power v. power match.

Kind of an underwhelming tournament through the first round. Things should pick up though. Well, I guess there's still a Toru Yano singles match on the most recent card. After that it should pick up.

Big Hug are the hot act in DG right now, & this Vibes pairing might well be the best tag team in all Japan, certainly top 5 (I'd have Astronauts above them but I'm not sure anyone else, sorry Bishamon). This is fantastic. Highly, highly recommended.

Dragongate really knocked it out of the park on Night 1 of their tag league.

Barbaros vs Infernales was close to MOTYC for me, I was thinking during it how great Cavernario vs Averno mano y mano would be and then they teased the hair match afterwards, so here's hoping....

WMOTYC: EVIL vs. Hikuleo - New Japan Cup 3/13

This was bad even by the egregious standards of a House of Torture match, but the ending may be one of the stupidest things I can remember: House of Torture gets run off backstage after endless amounts of interference/cheating, leaving Hikuleo and EVIL in a one-on-one situation where... EVIL just promptly beats Hikuleo without a single problem anyway. This all happened in front of a completely disinterested crowd, and usually you can at least say House of Torture's bullshit seems to (bafflingly) work in the building with the Japanese crowd, but not this time. Utter dogshit. Poop. From a butt.
