Gatoh Move Experience is live: https://gatohmovex.pivotshare.com/ There's not much on there at the moment, but 9.99/month is about the same as a Patreon would be if they were running one.

I wonder if it's the preamble to an online network to counter Tokyo Joshi Pro's presence on Wrestle Universe and market more broadly outside of Japan. (and of course Gatoh Move's irrepressible no pay wall youtube channel)

MARVELOUS is basically Chigusa Nagayo's Gatoh Move/Ice Ribbon. There's a lot of cuteness and the personal touch connection with the fans, but the emphasis is on good to great wrestling over characters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QeOs48QYeo It's largely about her trainees, workrate matches, and presents itself as a successor to the AJW/Gaea style. Warning: traces of those promotions' training attitudes still exist in MARVELOUS, while mild I've seen occasional things on dojo streams that make me go "hmm". While matches are mostly on NicoNico, there's still a lot of stuff on Youtube, especially during the Covid era: Marvelous Youtube Notably for modern Joshi it has a noticeable female following. fez_machine fucked around with this message at 00:57 on Feb 17, 2021 |

Johnny Landmine posted:Yuu has been representing Eve pretty much since she first left to go abroad in 2019. She's functionally a freelancer in Japan but considers Eve her home promotion. Is it a pandemic thing that she hasn't worked there more and there's a formal relationship, or is it just that she liked her time at EVE and decided that instead of being a straight Joshi freelancer she'd rep a foreign promotion? Because she's had more matches in nearly every other promotion she's ever worked.

Lamuella posted:honestly with their recent efforts to appeal to a more international market I'm surprised that CyberAgent haven't tried to lock down Stewart Fulton and Mark Pickering to do English commentary on all DDT, Noah, and TJPW shows. Regular English commentary is coming for sure but Fulton and Pickering are NOAH guys through and through. Although they do a good job with TJPW (have they done DDT commentary?) you can tell where their heart lies. Remember it took years of fine tuning to get NJPW in the state it is now.

Hyper Misao is the equivalent of the DDT comedy specialists, like Antonio Honda and DD. She's the person who keeps the spirit of DDT alive in a promotion that's established it's own separate and distinct vibe. I don't think Yano would have done anything like the Hyper Misao retirement match/celebration.

Like every other Joshi promotion has a reason to exist but AWG doesn't seem to have a driving force behind it. There can't be so much money sloshing around in Joshi that'd you make such a speculative play for the market.

This is a huge loss for the Ice Ribbon roster right? I can't imagine the people running the promotion are particularly happy about letting those deathmatch wrestling exhibition matches happen. Although the departure seems amicable in the sense that the press conference is happening in the dojo and Ice Ribbon understandably saying we can't present full on hardcore and deathmatch within the Ice Ribbon brand. Sakuraism in the mud as more and more wrestlers leave Sakuraist promotions to do deathmatch and UWFi rules matches.
