I've only watched that part so far, it's not much more than 5 minutes

NEW VIDEO: The final part of the AJW Red Belt '95-96 series! This concentrates on Kyoko Inoue vs Manami Toyota, but also goes into 1997 when Zenjo's business problems catch up with them and the Dark Ages of Joshi begin. Enjoy and please share www.youtube.com/watch?v=WW9_...
This is the SenJo episode where they show what happens after the match Yurika got concussed in
They show how she gets carried backstage, Mizunami and Matsumoto kept an eye on things until an ambulance arrived. She was released from the hospital the same evening.
ZONES interview where she talks about going freelance, wanting to train (and I guess also wrestle?) overseas and why she likes to use a certain website to keep track of her matches

Momoe Nakanishi trying to get her daughter into a pro wrestling club ✍️
lmaoooo thank you, I read through that and it might be my new favorite bit of clueless American headcanon
GoChika tearing up when she talks about her passion for the game and how teaming with Utami made her more powerful. Both crying and slapping each other, Kouki finally showing some fire. This is my kind of pro wrestling.
Well never mind, there's more after that and it's clearly about tWin toWer and hell yeah this got me excited for a Kouki match?
Wrestling gods stay undefeated
New gen needs to get some fresh material. Watch the Fuji TV special, get grossed out by injury treatment, learn about the actual first match on TV*
*regional
Me and the baddie I pulled by being a silly little bear.
Megaton looking skyward talking about the absent Nao made Komomo confused and Rea crack up offscreen
A match announcement for the Dragon Gate Golden Colosseum 2026 show April 26th in Aichi Prefectural Budokan, Nagoya. Both participants are dressed in corporate business attire. Machine translated from Japanese: Match 2: Special Exhibition Sugihara Trading Co., Ltd. Best Employee Selection Contest Jiro Shinbashi (Sales Department) vs. Jungle Kyona (Secretary)
Ah yes, this is where I totally expected Kyona to appear next
Pro wrestlers Kouki Amarei and Chika Goto talk at a press conference. Amarei is subtitled as saying "To be honest, I do sometimes wonder if I'm really enjoying pro wrestling right now." Goto with "Right now, I'm having so much fun with pro wrestling, I can't help myself."
Not so sure any more how Miku/Utami is going to play out. Draw seemed most likely because why else not put it on the PPV?
But now GoChika/Kouki suddenly is being made so important like the winner might challenge for red or white, or they just tag again after Kouki gets some passion injected.
Utami rolled up to this presser to remind everyone who the ace is
Main event is already fantastic way before it gets to the dog collar, blood and sword stabbings. This is how the crowd goes off just because Chigusa tags in for the first time.
There's something similar for AJW, but not as well organized and for that one they probably don't have access to the whole library

Pro wrestler Meiko Satomura bares her teeth
Young Meiko another debut here

All of the matches from this event are on GAEA's Youtube – some with minor edits, but looking and sounding better than alternatives I've seen. They've put a lot of their library online over the last couple of years.
It's the anniversary of the first GAEA show and I'm watching rookies Chikayo Nagashima and Toshie Uematsu go easy 20 at First Gong In Korakuen
Both this interview and the Hazuki one have had *interesting* answers to the belt questions
Pro wrestler Selene Misora sits next to her tag partner VENY, wearing a shirt with VENY's name and a crown on it. She looks at the camera like she's threatening to beat it up.
SEAdLINNNG rookies will cut a promo like "Last time you split my head open and made me bleed, this time I'll be the one cracking your skull" and mean it
I’m going to have to go around causing a bit of a stir in the Japanese wrestling scene. —Which brings me to something I’m curious about… Chi Chi: Well, that Victoria Yuzuki. Apparently, there
This of course is where I did a little clap and whispered "fight! fight!"
(I hadn't realized that Chi Chi's 1st Stardom show was the New Blood where Yuzuki debuted)
Fun interview with Chi Chi, talks about her decision to go freelance and go international at some point (sounds like she has things she wants to accomplish in Japan first) and EVO (they have more trainees, at least 2 new ones)

Four pictures of pro wrestler Yurika Oka talking. The machine translated subtitles have her saying: After teaming up with Mio-san, I really became brighter. Miosan is really bright from the inside out. I was really dark about myself.
The whole point of the series is that we follow the gang planning their Budokan show, and part of that is the wrestlers thinking about who they want to face. Except Yurika, who's always been set on AZM.
She talks more about who has made her into the person she is, especially someone who's not SenJo
Sunday's episode has a lot of administrative talk early on as a new staff member joins. There's social media strategy AND Meiko gives cleaning instructions

POV: It's your first day at the new job in Sendai; you receive the official certificate of staff membership
Hell yeah!
Oh I could never be a pro wrestler, but pain and injuries won't stop Mayu Iwatani from getting in the ring.
She's wrestled with broken ribs, limbs (there's a reason her pinkie is still crooked to this day) and more. She couldn't even walk right and still had that Io match last year.
Awesome awesome match, Komotan died a thousand deaths and kept zombieing back.
Loved how Komomo tried to use her knowledge of her favorite wrestler's moves, offering herself for the Buzzsaw Kick as bait and finding a way out of the Aono Clash. Beautiful post-match, this was so meaningful for her.
Oh my god noo
