Watched the Fukuoka night show. Hulk loving murdered Genki with the First Flash. He's been hitting that stiff this year. Wonder what's up?

Breezy wrestling, big angle was the Ben-K/HxE stuff. Feels like the first time Ben-Ks been getting some real shine since he dropped the Dream Gate.

Mochizuki Jr. and Ishin's stuff in their trios match was real good. Excited for the wrestledad/wrestleson showdown.

I have completed my short documentary series about Masquerade, which I worked on all summer and added more content to as the story kept going. Feel free to show this to anyone who needs more exposure to Dragongate.

edit: GAORA gave me a copyright takedown, but you can just click through to the links in the placeholder video to see it in other places.

GAORA is some bullshit, it'd be nice of them to enter the 21st Century. That was really good stuff.

Apparently some of the American excursion stuff in the fall is going to be airing on the Network.

Still clap only crowd right? Hope motivated Eita shows up because the dream gate match up is really good on paper. Twin Gate obviously looking like the show stealing match though.

Dragon Kid the most important guy in modern Dragon Gate because 90% of their dojo trainees joined because of him.

Rewatched the no dq Vibes/Brats match since I dozed off for the entirety of it last night, and drat, there were some gnarly-rear end bumps that match. SMJ looked absolutely fired up all match, and an extended feud with Diamante seems likely and cool.

So overall, I think Dangerous Gate is definitely the show of the year for Dragon Gate so far. A good card that over-delivered. Every match felt like it had story and direction, even the undercard stuff that has a tendency to drag on on these shows sometimes. Eita/Yoshioka was fantastic, just incredibly well-paced and thought out, Don't know what the future holds for Eita going forward, but that was a hell of an effort from him.

Like his namesake, Shun Skywalker has Force powers and projected his image to Japan to gently caress with Kzy.

Eita's rapidly approaching the Shingo position of basically having done everything in the company. All that's really left for him is a big babyface run with the Dream Gate and I don't think that's happening soon given the current direction of things.

Eita always had great chemistry with Tozawa. Here's a King of Gate match from 2015 with him that's great: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4dv5nv

And speaking of great chemistry, he had an awesome tag team with T-Hawk as part of the Millennials (and later again in ANTIAS). Their tag team was one of the things that first got me into Dragon Gate.

Here's their Twin Gate match at Kobe World 2014 against Shingo and Tozawa: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x44y7e8

Then there's their sick Twin Gate match against Big Ben at DoA 2018. One of the few highlights of ANTIAS: https://dragongate.live/title/?program=comp_BigEventsFeature&episode=15

I liked the All Out War variant they did last year with Masquerade and R.E.D., that was a lot of fun and did a lot to really cement HYO's gimmick from KoG earlier in the year.

It never occurred to me as an option, but Ben-K in Gold Class is such a natural fit lol.

Excited for Gate of Destiny. The King of Gate match between YAMATO and Yoshioka is one of my favorite DG matches of the year so it'll be cool to see it brought to the Dream Gate setting.

The end of the Dream Gate match that was just Yoshioka dominating YAMATO was one of the coolest match finishes I’ve seen in a while.
