Steamers look really cool, but I can imagine tidying them up being very annoying.

Vague-posting in Japanese? I have absolutely no chance to follow along.

Whatever they're doing, "pro-wrestling but not" seems crooked as hell, especially if they're announcing that they're changing tactics and then carrying on the same as before.

Thanks for this. I've been seeing gifs on twitter and kept checking Wrestle Universe to try and navigate to this new content but not being able to find it. It would probably be easier if I spoke Japanese.

Although I would love to see Jamie back and I don't have the fear of Toni Storm like other Stardom fans do I'm personally not really interested at the prospect of Stardom working with AEW. More excited with them working with more of the other Joshi promotions.

Yes, but it's very good news for AEW fans (me)

Excited for that appearance.

How is Deadlock able to bring in all these people?

I don't think any wrestler is flying in just for Deadlock, they're taking advantage of people coming in for American tours. I don't see why it's remarkable that they can book talent.

I was not, but thanks for highlighting it. There tends to be a lot of fun stuff on these New Blood shows. For instance in the opening match, the blue one has a lot of cool holds.

there is one TJPW storyline and it is "everyone is slowly getting better by striving hard and trying their best". Like, you keep watching until you go "whoah, the Cassowary finally got a pin! neat!". AND there's an intricate network of tag teams names, but that is just too complicated to communicate to initiates.

Yeah. A lot of it doesn't have any commentary at all. Only the big shows get a commentary desk, and only the biggest ones get an English language one too.

Yeah, she's a superhero who cheats an awful lot. Street wrestling brought her into the business (I believe she walked past some and thought "what's that I want to do it) and that has a lot of foreign objects. She bicycles into people a lot too.
Another thing she does a lot is immediately grab a mic and say "this is actually a [some silly stipulation] match" and I have to go searching to find out it's a trivia contest now as well.

Honestly I really like a draw if it just means both teams go 100% the whole time (meltear v hazuki/mayu being a great example)

Oh, a draw as in a tied result! Not as in a performer who makes people want to buy a ticket.

Catching up with yesterday's TJPW show, saw they're allowing streamers again from the May 5th show. Seems like a bad idea no matter how cool a visual it is, aren't they a real hassle to properly dispose of?

They're a big time pain but fans (and I think many wrestlers?) love them.
