thank you for being the one person i could count on for a taku iwasa fprr edit @dgjae.bsky.social

fire pro wrestling world post match screen for a trios math between kaientai of sato, terry boy and shiryu vs the great sasuke, gran hamada, and tiger mask iv. it was a lot better than the 71% the game gave it.

Hogwash I had it at 4.25

He still does runs in like Secret Base these days, but I guess I need to hunt down some late 00s BJW? The divergence between My and Case’s wrestling watching grows

this has become a GWE thread I guess

Music of the Mat Remix: Mania Weekend

@justandrew.bsky.social and Open the Voice Gate's Case Lowe focus on the "mania" of Mania Weekend, playing songs about mental illness.

(Am I going to watch a lot of Men’s Clubs matches to see if Teioh’s drop off is as extensive as I think it is? Yes yes I am for science)

Other than obvious lucharesu reassessment, those days has pretty much pushed liger in a conversation of a top five to ten with me

It’s pudge!

Fate of man

Drives me nuts the idea that this orphan show happens like seven times a year and it’s always booking new things for the ppv that people who don’t devote their time to the promotion would be completely surprised by (or not built at all) instead of primarily go home build. Either way it’s bad!

Alan, you are going to have to get the punch perm and become Don Counihan, I’ll get the bell bottoms (which thankfully Jacky is the TMIV heir of)

THIS WEEK - with DIA announcing his departure from Dragongate, it’s time to have a talk about the health of the company, DIA’s legacy, and why this exit hurts on a completely other level.

remember the five year plan convo we had? That would have ended three years ago. Woof.

The gryzzl “wouldn’t it be tight if everyone was chill to each other?” Motto from parks and rec

me to dragon system lately

This Week - with Dragongate’s press release being issued today, it’s time to have a long talk about the CIMA and Magnum Tokyo talk show.

it's really wild how good tesseract and general ocr has gotten over the last fifteen years. would have KILLED to have this easy of a workflow in my archives days.

now that i don't have to have anymore magnum thoughts for a bit, can finally get back to those days book scanning. shinzaki's mini autobiography has so many cool photos interspersed so far.

That ultimo return photo is unreal

uemura vs great-o-khan was a lot better and i probably am on board for uemura as a cup favorite after the split with umino (3.5)

the lack of confidence slope is accelerating too. thought he looked real awkward in the t-shirt and tights. he's a chunky guy you didn't put a t-shirt on shinya hashimoto you shouldn't on him.

i don't find myself erring towards incredible hysterics over wolf seeing how they immediately treated him after the dome (or really after winning the belt, dude had to push the acemobile for 20 minutes). fale's an utter waste at this point. fale vs wolf as the first match was bad and funny (DUD)

it is time for me to watch all of the new japan cup and use this thread for my notes from it.

i know that it's expected for me to have a lot of takes on uno dos tres (and those will come later) but all i want to talk about now is the for all mankind season five trailer how much RDM might have cribbed the martian war of independence @mikeduncan.bsky.social

Mikes hell yeah those days comp has two matches this episode and both are with my new main man gran naniwa

It is a real shame that “serious” naniwa isn’t something he got to tap into that much. Will have more eloquent thoughts on Those Days but it’s pretty clear that come summer 95 he might be the most versatile guy on the roster.
