https://twitter.com/we_are_stardom/status/885026072017985536 It looks like Stardom might start sticking free matches up on YouTube. I'm not sure that this isn't a one off but this is a fairly nothing match to put up. Saying that Jungle Kyona is probably a good combination of entertaining gimmick and in ring ability to draw people in.

No spoilers for the Mae Young classic please. There's already a spoilers thread to talk about that. Seeing a bunch of black bars would get obnoxious too tbh.

Cavauro posted:just want to get out ahead of the pack in declaring tsukushi completely innocent. she was holding a butter knife when kagetsu grabbed her arm and pulled it close and kept on yelling, "why are you trying to stab me so bad. stop doing those stabbing me motions" extremely loud. it was supposed to just be a joke at first but then when a bunch of people took it seriously she was too embarrassed to set the record straight so here we are Wait, who was too embarrassed? Kagetsu or Tsukushi?

I didn't realise AZM was that young though. I would have guessed 16-17.

Vaguido posted:Yeah, this sentiment unironically going on in MYC discussions is really annoying. Regardless of who wins the whole thing, the other 31 women can still get over and get pushes and win titles. They aren't dead unless WWE wants them to be dead. You'd have a good point if any of the other 31 guys in the CWC did anything of note in WWE but the only people from that doing anything of note are the two guys who ran off to Japan.

Vaguido posted:I don't think every single woman is staying in NXT. I imagine some of them will be going straight to the main roster. I could be wrong though. If, as I imagine Shayna Bayzler is going straight to the main roster to do this Horsewomen feud then I think Kairi should win the MYC and be the top face in the NXT Women's Division. MYC title would mean more for her than Shayna who already gets the legitimacy of having Ronda in her corner.

I thought Kagetsu/Mayu was really good. I liked HZK/Io a lot too. This 5 Star Grand Prix was my first introduction to Mandy Leon. Am I alone in finding her really really unlikable and bad?

she seemed a lot happier during the show. Mainly because there were two really loud Taiwanese guys wearing Progress shirts chanting "Toni Toni Toni loving Storm"

I doubt it, Alexander Wolfe and Axel Dieter Jr. showed up with the rest of Ringkampf in wXw and Kassius Ohno was lingering in the background of a DDT show. WWE seem to be in a festive mood wrt letting NXT guys do stuff at the moment. They announced Toni Storm vs. Meiko Satomura at the Stardom show tonight btw.

Rossy also let Delirious talk for way too long about this tournament at a Stardom show I was at. And Delirious was sitting front row the whole time so it was super distracting and I think he made his stupid gimmick noises. I'm really not a fan so I might have imagined that last part to justify my dislike for him though. He also yelled "hey, white guy!" right in my face on his way into the show and he wasn't wearing his mask so he wasn't in character.

I mean she's cutting these promos in Spanish that aren't even getting translated. I wouldn't blame her if it feels kinda pointless. The 6 man tag with Mayu, Tam & Mari against Oedo Tai from the most recent Shinkiba show is really good, and the extended beat down section on Tam felt really cruel and sad. I'm looking forward to the tag title match at Korakuen.

If you have DDT Universe, Tokyo Joshi Pro are doing a live show at 4:30 AM EST, 9:30 AM GMT main evented by Miyu Yamashita vs. Yuna Manase for their title. I've only seen their January 4th show bit Miyu vs. Reika Saiki was probably the best women's match I've seen this year so worth a watch if you're already subscribed to DDT.

My friends you missed out on that one. In the main event was a woman whose arsenal included the "Boingmaker" and the "Boing-ma-ye" where she did the set up for the moves she was parodying and then, instead of hitting her opponent with a lariat/knee respectively, she hit her with her boobs. Seriously, it was a pretty fun event. Reika Saiki is amazing. She's 4'11" and her finish is the loving Jackhammer.

The tag was definitely the match of the night. This was the second TJP show I watched and I'm with you on Reika and Maki being great. The Reika Saiki vs. Miyu Yamashita match from their January 4th show might be the best women's match I've seen this year. The main event was good tonight, and I feel they definitely didn't overdo it with the boob spots like they did in the tag match on the January 4th show.

I was watching Hana Kimura work as a happy peppy babyface in Sendai Girls and the commentators started talking about her being an Oedo Tai member in Stardom. I'm probably thinking about this more than they ever did but how the hell do they recognise those two characters existing as one person in the same kayfabe?

rovert posted:Hard to talk about Martina on social media as she takes praise as a criticism sometimes. But I am really happy for her. Never thought her gimmick would last locally let alone become an international sensation. The Stardom Reddit account has implied that they want foreign talent to approach them rather than the other way round. You know how accurate that is?

When they came here, the shows were run by JVC as in the consumer electronics company which was weird. Hana Kimura got presented with a pair of headphones at the end of the show.
