pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
A good thing to watch if you are interested in Stardom is their weekly TV show - every episode is half an hour long and it features one or two usually edited matches on it; and its a good taster to see if its something you like the look of before you go out to spend money on the streaming service. Link is here. They also live streamed a show last week (here) - its not a big show with the matches mainly being a lot of multi-man tag matches but the main event featured Giulia, one of the top stars of the promotion, leader of the Donna Del Mundo faction who has recently returned from injury, teaming with a pair of debuting mystery partners who'd been randomly showing up to bully the Stardom rookies over the last few months.

Their service is different to New Japan World or Wrestle Universe in that they don't have any live shows on there; everything is uploaded after the fact, generally a match at a time. Their major arena shows (monthly usually) are aired on PPV for a lot of money but they end up on Stardom World within four or five days so you wouldn't be waiting for months to see something.

The promotion is based around a lot of factions with every wrestler being a member of one and there's probably a group that fits for everyone. Could go into more detail if people are interested into the roster and how its split up; bit too long for a post like this.

Personally a big fan of the Dual Shock WAVE tournament since that just sounds cool.
