Any British people here with a love of puro would do well to remember that tickets for the UK tour of NOAH go on sale tomorrow.

In Excuse me sir, but there appears to be some booking on my NOAH show news, during a recent tag match KENTA hit his own partner with a chair and joined DISOBEY, aka the heel group. Rudo KENTA has the potential to be amazing.

gently caress yeah! So glad it happened before the UK Tour. I get to see heel-KENTA! Also, Chris Hero has just been confirmed for the UK NOAH tour as well (they're announcing one every week) so Claudio's probably going as well. If you're in the UK and love wrestling, you have no excuse not to go.

So far they have KENTA, Nakajima, Marvin & Hero.

And since Hero is announced, Claudio is pretty much a lock to be there as well. I'd also be very shocked if Morishima wasn't there. They're announcing the roster one week at a time.

Oh man. 'Cryptic' match listings are up for the NOAH UK tour. The main event for the day I'm going has the hint of 'Former tag-partners square off'. I think I going to get to see KENTA vs Marufuji live

Nakajima vs Shiozaki from the most recent NOAH tour of the UK. A really fun match to come back to after intermission. Featuring Shiozaki straight-up murdering Nakajima. DVD available here:

Cody/Dustin being that high is a pleasant surprise. I'd have thought that Japanese viewers of AEW would be following mostly for The Elite. Having Cody and Dustin that high up just shows how incredible that match was

I do. I've wanted to get into it for ages, and especially hard after Forbidden Door.

Thanks for the recommendations!

If you more recent match, FTR/Aussie Open from Royal Quest earlier this year was easily FTRs best match for New Japan and second only to the third Briscoes match as FTRs best last year

They're not restricting a ton now, but wrestling was designated as Theater instead of Sports and the restrictions were much much heavier on them for much longer. Kidani (I believe) had to personally lobby the government to get cheering restrictions reduced for 1.4.23 and the finances for every company were impacted for a lot longer than necessary

I like to think the Diet were just terrified of Yuji Nagata so they lifted the restrictions

Good god the AWG intro to All Japan being a big choreographed dance seems impressively misjudged. Sort of thing has its place but just as a first impression it is lousy. Not what AJPW fans want to be watching

They just picked the wrong song. Should have gone with the classic:

As someone who doesn’t watch much NOAH, how hyped should I be about seeing Seiki Yoshioka next week?

The Central Asian (Uzbek? I forget) Olympic silver winning wrestler that was originally among the names announced has vanished. Instead, have Santino Marella?

The IWGP Heavyweight champion is facing an MMA fighter. Inokiism will never die
