Great match. The triple threat was super fun although Hinano's too reliant on the crying gimmick.
WARNING: commentary is loud and sweary
Toni Storm laughing her ass off and Charli Evans and Ridgeway losing their shit behind Kyle is great
Yeah, they do so many things right with this match, it's great.
That match was super entertaining, yep! Hinano's crying gimmick should be close to overstaying its welcome but they do keep finding ways to do something new with it.
I'm starting to think I'm in the minority of people that love the Haruka Neko/Yuna Manase match a lot because no one talks about it.
When it started and Haruna couldn't reach Yuna's hand, so she just punched Yuna in the stomach I was immediately a fan of Haruka.
At least Hinano switched it up a little by crying whilst flirting with Nodoka. I'd rather have her go for more and more elaborate crying gimmicks until she gets a better grasp of ring work.
It was a little too short for me to love it but I think Hatuna's showing some potential and she hasn't got lost in a match yet where as there were points where Pom was being dragged into position by Yuka. I'm also more impressed with Yuna for randomly liking one of my pro Natsu winning the white belt tweets than anything in the match which clearly moves her into TJPW Ace contention behind Rika.
My new favorite promotion is the one with demonic Ronald McDonald and the military assassin lady?
I guess I don't have anyone to compare them to in TJPW besides the Up Up Girls who were doing way less stuff than either of them when they started.
Yuna in her kind of a sexy cop outfit teaming up with Natsu would be something.
Yeah, Pom's debut was decent but even I could tell that that Yuka had to help out a lot.

Happy for him, he was doing quite a lot of dates/countries. That means WWE gave them the guaranteed money they wanted in exchange for "exclusivity" (between brackets because it's still good for the co-opted if I understood correctly).
A quick USPTO search shows that WWE doesn't own it (nobody seems to at the moment, in fact). WWE did, but it expired in 2002.
I was impressed with Neko. Hard to judge so soon but she looks better than Pom, although Pom pulled off a nice step-up leg drop.
For your consideration this Carnies season:
Teddy Hart vs. Pentagon Jr.
AAW ran a match last year at the Windy City Classic that was Hart vs. Penta vs. Janela vs. Fox. After the match Teddy gave his usual overly long speech and said how he helped trained Pentagon and it's a dream match for them to wrestle. Suddenly they square up like they're gonna have a match right there and the crowd is hyped. But nothing is happening. The crowd is waiting. Teddy says "where's the ref? can't have a match with no ref" but no ref is coming. They eventually just walk backstage
Months later, AAW announces that the match is finally happening! They've booked it in April for their Never Say Die show
The match happens and it's solid for a few minutes. Then Pentagon does the arm break and Teddy is "hurt" and can't finish the match. Pentagon doesn't want to fight, but Teddy lies on his back still trying!! "THIS IS THE DREAM MATCH!!!!"
Pentagon wins and then gets on the mic and says "I am no winner. Please AAW, book this match again"
Teddy hasn't been back since.
Will "the dream match" actually happen for realsies at MLW?

Oooooooooooo... I might jump at listening to a full show with English commentary now.
Was listening to the POST Wrestling podcast this morning, and Wai & Pollock don't really think it's too great of an idea for Asuka to be feuding with Becky and Charlotte. Because "the crowd obviously likes Asuka, but they like her less than Becky, so that could cause some problems, or have people turn on Asuka."
You also have people starting to crawl out of the woodwork claiming that Asuka didn't earn a title shot. Like that JD guy someone linked earlier. I guess Asuka shouldn't be in the title picture because she didn't have a massive winning streak like Becky did, according to him. And nor should she until she runs through the entire Smackdown Women's Division like what Becky did.
WWE struck while the iron was hot for once with Asuka, lets see if they can keep it up. Because if Becky is going to face Ronda at Wrestlemania, then she needs to drop the title soon. And the crowd would completely shit all over a Charlotte win at TLC now.

I miss Hiromu so much :(
Damn he did Dave Finley dirty.... He's not wrong tho.
has anyone here written messages directly to people signing saying they're making mistakes and being selfish?
it's crazy, i know, but you can recognize that The McDonalds Of Wrestling is the end game and safe money for someone's career and also recognize that WWE/NXT is not putting out the same wrestling product you get from the indies
To be fair they used that in the story of Corbin becoming the GM of Raw
But yeah, It was dumb and unnecessary

They could have had the same story with Raw winning the night and the 5 on 5 match without SmackDown losing everything.
the fact that Punk said well before All In "give me an offer, don't just say *come do something* " and they still did the exact thing he said he wasn't interested in is amazing
"I know Cody was out there in the media saying that an offer was made [for the All In event Sept. 1]. An offer was not made. Calling me up or texting me saying, 'Hey, if you want to come to the show and do something, we would love that' is not an offer. That's not an offer."
If we weren't all fatigued by WWE's current attempts at building heel heat, they'd have a good angle on their hands for Asuka turning on Naomi soon. Those two have done a great job getting the message across that they are close friends, unlike Ronda and Natalya which nobody buys because we all expect it to end in a split. It will be funny if the Ronda/Natalya friendship outlives Asuka/Naomi but gets none of the heat.
They still have to deliver on their big fights. We will see if Lucha Bros vs Parks is the one to do it.
At this point Punk is poisonous enough that is probably best to avoid and use all the money he would ask to get better talent.
It's in order for me, by date. But actually go to Takeover section. If you just search, you get anything with Takeover in the data. So you'll get NXT shows that have "Fresh off his win at Takeover," etc.
This was a pretty decent match with some good moments. Shame about the quiet crowd though.
Rey Mysterio coming down to avenge his injury only to get fucked up again is the most Rey Mysterio thing ever, I was legit laughing.
That's what I feared
I subbed to RevPro for the last batch of cool matchups I wanted to see and the crowds ruined it for me. Idk if it's just how they're mic'd or what but it just sounds dead with people halfheartedly trying to chant sometimes
York Hall is full of bellends
Everywhere else is mostly casuals and families
hell yeah. Can't wait. My man Hama-chan is gonna smash
Not sure how to feel about Jeremy Lin being the only non professional wrestler I recognize on there.
