- 1:21[UNKNOWN]: Welcome back everybody to wrestling on my car say it's episode number 320 and all I took the second there.
- 1:27[UNKNOWN]: All right to folks!
- 1:29[UNKNOWN]: Before I even did just my guess, I got to tell you.
- 1:31[UNKNOWN]: I am running on an incredibly tiny amount of sleep.
- 1:35[UNKNOWN]: This podcast is coming a day later than usual for many, for thank God it is.
- 1:40[UNKNOWN]: Otherwise, I don't know how I would have recorded yesterday.
- 1:42[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, so if I sound even more tired than usual, and if I yon, more than I do, somebody's up to some of the episodes, you've been warned.
- 1:52[UNKNOWN]: So, we'll be even more boring than usual.
- 1:55[UNKNOWN]: I'm gonna talk in a monotone.
- 1:59[UNKNOWN]: And I will like give you a deep history lesson about ancient literature in this voice the entire time.
- 2:10[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, our methods, everybody.
- 2:11[UNKNOWN]: Hi, our method.
- 2:12[UNKNOWN]: Hey, how you doing, John?
- 2:14[UNKNOWN]: I'm good.
- 2:16[UNKNOWN]: I spent yesterday doing as the kids say, living out.
- 2:21[UNKNOWN]: Like at some point, so today's Wednesday, we're quiet.
- 2:24[UNKNOWN]: It's like the 839 Eastern on November 4th.
- 2:29[UNKNOWN]: I thought I was going to get through the New Japan and DDT big shows yesterday because they were both November 3rd and hindsight.
- 2:36[UNKNOWN]: I don't know why I thought that.
- 2:38[UNKNOWN]: Now, I also did not think that we were going to witness actual, to honest to God once in a century electoral history here in America.
- 2:46[UNKNOWN]: Like, that's not exaggeration for once.
- 2:48[UNKNOWN]: Like, this actually was a once in our lifetimes so far, midterm.
- 2:54[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it's twice if you're old enough because the closest comparison I've seen is the 1974, right?
- 3:00[UNKNOWN]: Thank God, I'm old.
- 3:02[UNKNOWN]: I'm old.
- 3:02[UNKNOWN]: I'm not that old.
- 3:03[UNKNOWN]: That's well before I was born.
- 3:04[UNKNOWN]: Thank God.
- 3:07[UNKNOWN]: Yes, it's love for us more.
- 3:09[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I think there's a I think made silver have like a list of all the the largest swings in the last like 50 like if you go through the go through the last like the 20th century
- 3:23[UNKNOWN]: because this wing looks like it was about, and sorry, if you don't want to hear about politics by the way, I guess we're gonna just skip forward, but it's a big thing.
- 3:31[UNKNOWN]: It's about a 15 point spring quarter's Democrats from 2024 as presidential to this election.
- 3:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so you go back in 1946.
- 3:40[UNKNOWN]: was 13.2.
- 3:41[UNKNOWN]: That was during Harry Truman's first term.
- 3:44[UNKNOWN]: I doubt we have any listeners that rely for that.
- 3:46[UNKNOWN]: They have to be what like, they have to be like in their 80s, right?
- 3:49[UNKNOWN]: They have to be like a page of my grandmother basically.
- 3:51[UNKNOWN]: So I think why I my grandmother was alive for that.
- 3:54[UNKNOWN]: But barely like she would have been a little girl.
- 3:57[UNKNOWN]: Um, 1966, a 12 point swing during LBJ's second term, um, I, we might have one listener line.
- 4:08[UNKNOWN]: If you're a listener who's alive for any of these, I guess, like comment, I would love to know.
- 4:11[UNKNOWN]: I feel like 66, it's possible that I doubt it because you would have to be, what, you have to be 60 years old.
- 4:18[UNKNOWN]: Um, so you'd have to be at least six, you have to be over 60 to remember it for sure.
- 4:22[UNKNOWN]: So I doubt it.
- 4:23[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, if you, you know, if you're on in the voice of us in discord or like leave a comment on the YouTube upload or something, if you happen to be a 60 plus year old listener, I guess I was a lie for this.
- 4:33[UNKNOWN]: My dad would have been alive for this, but barely like he would have been, um, you would have been a child still.
- 4:38[UNKNOWN]: Uh, 1974, 11.2 point swing during Gerald Ford's long term after Nixon resigned the presidency during Watergate, um, that's the one where that's one of my pretty sure we must have at least one or two listeners who are alive for just because I know some of my listeners and I again think of at least one one pretty sure is this old, but if that pretty might not,
- 5:02[UNKNOWN]: Thinking about the age of my head, he might not remember it.
- 5:06[UNKNOWN]: Like, he may technically be alive the person thinking of, but there's a chance he doesn't remember it, depending on what his actual age is.
- 5:14[UNKNOWN]: And then we finally get to some that you and I were both alive for, but this is, again, I don't remember this very well because I was a small child.
- 5:21[UNKNOWN]: 1994, 12.1 point swing during Bill Clinton's first term, after he wanted 92, and then finally the ones that I would actually have memories of, which is 2006, the 10.6 point swing during Bush's second term, and 2010, the 17.4 swing during Obama's first term.
- 5:40[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, this would be the one of the largest in history, those like the only comparables.
- 5:46[UNKNOWN]: I guess like to start the, like, first of all, I remember, would you the guest when I recorded after the, the, the off your election last year?
- 5:57[UNKNOWN]: The Virginia New Jersey one.
- 5:59[UNKNOWN]: Whoo, I don't think so, but watch someone in the comments prove me a liar.
- 6:04[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I remember joking around about a lot and having a good time about it because that, that, in hindsight, was a huge, right flag at a few different levels, those general election is normally treated as like about whether for what the midterms are going to look like, because that immediately follows a presidential election.
- 6:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I'm New Jersey too though, you join.
- 6:28[UNKNOWN]: But I don't think it's considered as much about what they're good.
- 6:30[UNKNOWN]: Virginia used to be used to be a big swing state.
- 6:33[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 6:33[UNKNOWN]: Now it's obviously much more solid blue.
- 6:35[UNKNOWN]: Well, you used to be a red state, but it was a swing state now, it's a much more blue.
- 6:39[UNKNOWN]: And New Jersey has been a solid blue for a long time.
- 6:41[UNKNOWN]: New Jersey actually swung really hard towards Trump and my my my original home state.
- 6:48[UNKNOWN]: Obviously.
- 6:48[UNKNOWN]: I didn't know you were from New Jersey, right?
- 6:51[UNKNOWN]: I was born in New Jersey, yeah.
- 6:53[UNKNOWN]: That's true.
- 6:54[UNKNOWN]: But I've looked at New York for like for 12, 13 years now,
- 6:58[UNKNOWN]: I also briefly lived in Texas, which is another state that was very much in the news, but I'll get to that.
- 7:04[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, New Jersey swung about as hard towards Republicans as I've seen as swung.
- 7:08[UNKNOWN]: I think it was like an eight point margin or something for the Democrat, which, you know, that's not a lot for New Jersey in modern times.
- 7:15[UNKNOWN]: And, oh, five, the Virginia, the Virginia government election, I believe she won by like five points, uh, over the fucker, English, Bamberg, or I think.
- 7:26[UNKNOWN]: When she, the polls had it really, really close, like a point or something.
- 7:29[UNKNOWN]: But New Jersey, I think was the one that was the real like canary in the coal mine for this, because they had that as a super close election.
- 7:39[UNKNOWN]: that New Jersey government election, they model the pollsters had it as a super close election, they had it like within a point, I think, in a final average and end up being like a 12 point blowout, like it was not even remotely close.
- 7:51[UNKNOWN]: So that was like off by double digits, which if you look at the app, the polling averages, the final polls, a lot of the final, the lot of the pollsters way under
- 8:01[UNKNOWN]: Okay, a crazy thing that I think people are not like attuned to polling and how it works to everything.
- 8:06[UNKNOWN]: People probably think, you know, oh, the poll is like great night, you know, they said the Democrats are going to win the Democrats want the pollsters, if you go by like every single pollster in the average, they were more often Democrats this time than they were
- 8:23[UNKNOWN]: But nobody thinks of it like that because 2016 obviously they have a winner wrong.
- 8:27[UNKNOWN]: So everybody goes crazy, but the actual margin, they were, do you got what I'm saying?
- 8:31[UNKNOWN]: Like they were predicting Hilary to be Trump by a teeny bit and said Trump be Hilary by a teeny bit, right, in these states.
- 8:38[UNKNOWN]: And in this election, the actual margin that they had, because they predicted for the most part of the Democrats to win, but they predicted a bunch of close margins.
- 8:47[UNKNOWN]: And you know, like I, the easiest example I think is Texas, let me just bring up the
- 8:51[UNKNOWN]: I didn't obviously prepare for this but like real close politics tax set it like the the average the final average of the poll was I can't be the final no why it's not given me the whole okay that's sort of that's the nomination guys I'm talking about the actual fucking poll
- 9:13[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 9:13[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 9:14[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if I can't it seems to be hard to find that now or something.
- 9:18[UNKNOWN]: It'd be nice if like school like search engine actually worked.
- 9:21[UNKNOWN]: That'd be that'd be cool.
- 9:23[UNKNOWN]: Okay, send election polls.
- 9:26[UNKNOWN]: Okay, the final average in Texas.
- 9:34[UNKNOWN]: It looks like it was, I thought this, I could just run the last time I tried to look at this, it was not this hard, like did they just break it?
- 9:45[UNKNOWN]: Okay, way to go guys, what, what was the final Texas Senate polling average?
- 9:53[UNKNOWN]: Okay, yes, it was 2.6% for Talorigo.
- 9:58[UNKNOWN]: So they said that I was, you know, they had to have they showed that Talorigo,
- 10:02[UNKNOWN]: I think I pronounced that right, right?
- 10:03[UNKNOWN]: Tell a freak out, as Trump would say.
- 10:07[UNKNOWN]: I had it was up by 2.6 points, which is, you know, that's a decent margin, it's still within the margin of error, though.
- 10:14[UNKNOWN]: And if, you know, if packs you to pull it out by like half a point, people would be screaming again about how badly the fucking pollsters fucked up, and we knew they were gonna, they were gonna, you know,
- 10:27[UNKNOWN]: Then we knew they're going to underrate them.
- 10:28[UNKNOWN]: Republicans that they always do and blah, blah, blah.
- 10:30[UNKNOWN]: Do you know what the final result is right now?
- 10:33[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it's not the final final.
- 10:34[UNKNOWN]: But it's the result they're showing right now, the day after.
- 10:37[UNKNOWN]: Day after, I think he's at eight.
- 10:40[UNKNOWN]: 12.
- 10:42[UNKNOWN]: 12.
- 10:42[UNKNOWN]: Wow.
- 10:43[UNKNOWN]: Right now, he's at 12 percentage points.
- 10:45[UNKNOWN]: You could take a million votes away from him and he would still win the election as of now.
- 10:50[UNKNOWN]: He would be at 4.4 million to 4.2.
- 10:54[UNKNOWN]: So this wasn't even, this was a complete destruction.
- 10:58[UNKNOWN]: So the fucking pop, fucking falling average, the polling average off, I almost 10 points.
- 11:04[UNKNOWN]: So that is a huge fucking mess, but nobody will think of it this way, or at least in our lives, I don't know if people are very crude and we'll think of it this way because they got the winner right.
- 11:12[UNKNOWN]: when an actual outie, the posters were completely wrong.
- 11:15[UNKNOWN]: The posters are fucking blue this election, but nobody is going to get them as much heat as they do over our tiny mess in 2016, because, you know, they all, the posters had a hell or a running and trump one.
- 11:27[UNKNOWN]: But if you show an election, that's going to be with an appointment or two, and the other person wins with an appointment or two, that's not the fucking poster flowing the election.
- 11:34[UNKNOWN]: Now 2020 is a different animal because 2020 they actually were we're actually way off, but again, people don't even give them as much shit because they said Biden is going to win huge and said Biden won by a little bit.
- 11:46[UNKNOWN]: So I don't know.
- 11:46[UNKNOWN]: It's like people people don't like follow stuff.
- 11:48[UNKNOWN]: I don't think think about this.
- 11:50[UNKNOWN]: Why, but it's like these are bigger misses.
- 11:52[UNKNOWN]: It's just they happen to be misses where they actually name the winner properly.
- 11:57[UNKNOWN]: A lot of this is still rooted
- 12:05[UNKNOWN]: of people lying when they were called and asked to recall the most recent vote, or asked who do you plan to vote for?
- 12:14[UNKNOWN]: It turns out a lot of people were ashamed to tell posters that they were going to vote for Trump, but would end up voting for Trump.
- 12:22[UNKNOWN]: And I think pollsters like really overcompensated for that.
- 12:27[UNKNOWN]: Well, okay.
- 12:28[UNKNOWN]: It's not just that.
- 12:29[UNKNOWN]: Because I saw this.
- 12:30[UNKNOWN]: This was in the days I saw leading up to it where like really smart people like GLE Morris is like I'm a really smart polling analyst.
- 12:37[UNKNOWN]: They were pointing out.
- 12:38[UNKNOWN]: Like I saw people making the case that pollsters were going to under by a lot of pollsters are going to under count Democrats and they thought there are more like that was more likely to be the direction of the polling era because he was saying.
- 12:50[UNKNOWN]: We know, if we compare the results, because he also is a pollster besides being an analyst, so he does both be those as a pollster too.
- 12:57[UNKNOWN]: We know as pollsters, when we do these polls right now, that we are being lied to by some of the people get in for the poll again, but guess what they're lying about now.
- 13:08[UNKNOWN]: Now they're falling for a member voting for Kamala instead of Trump.
- 13:12[UNKNOWN]: Yes, Trump has become so unpopular.
- 13:16[UNKNOWN]: He's literally like the least popular president and entering a midterm, like, I think they'd be ever since they've started doing like a pre-war polling because he's more on part of the Biden was four years ago.
- 13:28[UNKNOWN]: And much more on part than it was eight years ago when he also, when they also got killed in 2018, but only lost the house, not the Senate.
- 13:34[UNKNOWN]: I wonder how that compares to Bush specifically then.
- 13:37[UNKNOWN]: I think he's less or less popular than Bush and I was to act actually.
- 13:39[UNKNOWN]: Because Bush is a providing kept going down even further after that, which I guess he was trying to
- 13:44[UNKNOWN]: Incredibly enough in the below teens at a certain point which is but at this point at the comparable point it was not quite there yet But so like they trump was so unpopular that they figured out that they were getting people on the phone That just statistically some of these people had to be trump voters and they were telling them no, I voted for Kamala
- 14:04[UNKNOWN]: So that ended up hurting the polls in another direction because when you're way, a lot of pollsters now wait to pass vote.
- 14:11[UNKNOWN]: That's one of the ways that they found to correct against the concept of the shy Trump voter.
- 14:16[UNKNOWN]: But if you're waiting to pass vote, but some of the people who told you they're voting who are now voting, but Democrats are telling you they voted for Kamala when they actually vote for Trump, you're missing some of that persuasion effect.
- 14:28[UNKNOWN]: So you're basically not capturing in your polls that some of the Trump voters are now going to vote blue because you have that as just come out of voters voting vote, which isn't, you know, that's not, it's not how it's being weighted.
- 14:41[UNKNOWN]: So that, that was screaming it up too.
- 14:43[UNKNOWN]: So I saw these there's,
- 14:44[UNKNOWN]: There's a lot of reasons to be happy that Democrats just worry that Republicans in this election, I think.
- 14:52[UNKNOWN]: You know, I'm not saying I think Democrats are perfect.
- 14:55[UNKNOWN]: Although I really, I get really annoyed if some of the shit on Twitter would like, not, I get it when you're overseas and stuff, you just you experience the American Empire different than I do obviously, but I get really annoyed when people but Americans are like, oh, how could you sell a brighter on the Democrats taken wording or how have you not learned by now, who cared?
- 15:14[UNKNOWN]: I sort of agree to a degree, right?
- 15:17[UNKNOWN]: Like I get it, like we're probably gonna, I mean, Democrats can suck too, and they do shitty things too.
- 15:22[UNKNOWN]: But if you asked me like I'm November or whatever, number four, 24, how the Trump administration was gonna go for two years, I don't think I, I would have told you it's gonna be really bad.
- 15:34[UNKNOWN]: I don't think I would have told you that ice agents will be killing American citizens in the streets and we're going to start a new war with Iran.
- 15:42[UNKNOWN]: It's got a fucking kill.
- 15:44[UNKNOWN]: We're going to bomb a school full of little girls in Iran and we're going to drive the price of oil above a hundred dollars of barrel and ruin the war on economy for lots and lots of people.
- 15:56[UNKNOWN]: I don't think I would have said all that.
- 15:57[UNKNOWN]: I would have assumed it was going to be more like his first turn, which was bad, but I don't think it was this bad.
- 16:03[UNKNOWN]: So, if after two years of that, you're going to stay here and tell me you don't understand why people are celebrating, you know, a huge, a huge win for the blue team.
- 16:12[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what to tell you.
- 16:14[UNKNOWN]: I think it's pretty fucking obvious.
- 16:15[UNKNOWN]: Like this, you know, Trump is so, there's Trump administration has been so awful that yes, it's nice just to watch the beach ship.
- 16:22[UNKNOWN]: And the other thing, too, is...
- 16:25[UNKNOWN]: There were some people on Twitter, you know, Republican, like conservatives or, I mean, I mean, it makes sense to call them the series anymore.
- 16:31[UNKNOWN]: There's Republican Trump fans on Twitter who were such fucking annoying pieces of shit about this election going into it.
- 16:38[UNKNOWN]: They were so fucking convinced.
- 16:40[UNKNOWN]: the day we're going to win, that's a poser under, we're not counting their supporters correctly again, and blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 16:47[UNKNOWN]: And the fact that all these people, the fucking, if you're on Twitter, you'll know who the Latinx doctor is probably because he was a big one.
- 16:54[UNKNOWN]: The, you know, that fucking Chris Whitehands, Eddie, like these people, the fact that those people were so fucking, we're not just wrong.
- 17:02[UNKNOWN]: Like, they were as wrong as a person could be about anything, right?
- 17:06[UNKNOWN]: Because this wasn't just like, this was not just for people who didn't fall fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, fall, all, it's at all.
- 17:12[UNKNOWN]: Again, this is one of the biggest reviews, Democrats, one in places, they have not won, not, you know, not just in my lifetime, in my 80s, something like, oh, grandmother's lifetime.
- 17:23[UNKNOWN]: My grandmother was not born yet, but last time, Kansas was won by a Democratic Senator.
- 17:30[UNKNOWN]: The great depression, I don't think it happened yet, but last time, Kansas elected a Democrat at the Senate.
- 17:35[UNKNOWN]: Like, Democrats won in places they never fucking win.
- 17:38[UNKNOWN]: So, saying that Republicans are gonna have a not, even saying Republicans are gonna have a not bad, bad midterm and hold on to Senate and lose the house or whatever, which some of the went for a bad map, but even saying that in the being completely fucking wrong.
- 17:50[UNKNOWN]: So, the fact that those people feel stupid and those people are sad today, more than anything.
- 17:57[UNKNOWN]: more than anything.
- 17:57[UNKNOWN]: I just want people to know the number one reason why I was happy last night why I lived the fuck out for fucking six straight hours and did watch the rest of each other's supposed to.
- 18:05[UNKNOWN]: And you know, which is just living through this historic human happened.
- 18:09[UNKNOWN]: It's because I cannot fucking stand Trump supporters.
- 18:11[UNKNOWN]: I think they're pretty much universally pieces of shit, especially the loud ones about it on Twitter and stuff.
- 18:17[UNKNOWN]: But guy who voted because, you know,
- 18:20[UNKNOWN]: Uh, he wanted, he thought it was somehow going to give him cheaper eggs or whatever, and now probably regrets it and didn't even vote in the selection, you know, whatever.
- 18:27[UNKNOWN]: But like the, the really loud ones about it are pretty much universally dumb pieces of shit, who are, the exact type of pieces of shit that I can't stand, you know, the type that like thinks their smartman they're actually dumb.
- 18:40[UNKNOWN]: And I just can't, and I'm glad they, I'm glad those fucking people had to eat some fucking shit for once in their fucking lives, including that piece of fucking shit Elon Musk, who was spent $500 million on 99% candidates that lost and they had to fucking slink down to Twitter and make jokes about his face lasers not working, because he didn't know what else to fuck to say after he lost his biggest anyone has ever lost before.
- 19:01[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, fuck him and fuck the Trump supporters.
- 19:06[UNKNOWN]: I think a key part of why Democrats won so big is that the most visible Trump supporters and officials and official communications are all such nauseating should bullshit that only makes sense to people who are deeply embedded in the racist online right.
- 19:28[UNKNOWN]: You know, and they want a Chinese to normal people, oh, yeah, yeah, they want a tiny tiny electoral win, which, you know, again, they pretended that was a big one because they were one of these things to say, they won by popular vote margin, a pretty fucking tiny win.
- 19:46[UNKNOWN]: by historic margins, because when people were fucking mad about COVID inflation, a pretty normal thing that, you know, you could explain very easily.
- 19:54[UNKNOWN]: And they somehow thought they had a fucking hundred year truck band date to be as racist and homophobic and, you know, sexist is possible.
- 20:02[UNKNOWN]: And yeah, I turned off a lot of people.
- 20:04[UNKNOWN]: See you.
- 20:04[UNKNOWN]: Good.
- 20:06[UNKNOWN]: Like you were saying, a lot of people voted with their wallet in 2024.
- 20:13[UNKNOWN]: stupidly but whatever it's it's it's it's people are dumb people are done right and it's just how a lot of American politics is it boils down to a lot of independent voters who aren't terribly plugged in but are going to make their best guess anyway right yeah it's just how it is the
- 20:34[UNKNOWN]: I didn't even mention Democrats are going to want to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't even mention Democrats are going to miss you, I didn't
- 20:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I have a couple of friends I could think of in Louisiana that we're like, yeah, I hope that you spend this time.
- 21:00[UNKNOWN]: We'll have a lot of people had high hopes for Florida as almost like a stretch goal for Angie Nixon to win there.
- 21:08[UNKNOWN]: She kept it.
- 21:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that didn't come close to happening as a turn.
- 21:11[UNKNOWN]: No, she kept it.
- 21:12[UNKNOWN]: Well, she kept it within three points, which, um, oh, that was the rate.
- 21:15[UNKNOWN]: And that's not that bad.
- 21:17[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 21:17[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 21:17[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 21:18[UNKNOWN]: Right now it's going to end with it within three points.
- 21:19[UNKNOWN]: I mean, she lost, like 200,000 votes.
- 21:21[UNKNOWN]: I mean, given how much that state is one going to write, that's really nothing.
- 21:25[UNKNOWN]: I mean, the posters had like nine points, so well, they actually put money in.
- 21:30[UNKNOWN]: They put a, they put a one.
- 21:32[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 21:32[UNKNOWN]: And being close is the kind of thing that you can build on in your state party, too.
- 21:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 21:37[UNKNOWN]: take another shot at it, it took several election cycles for Blacks as to be a thing, and it took multiple tries from a different guy running for Senator as a Democrat.
- 21:51[UNKNOWN]: And this is the one that happened to take.
- 21:53[UNKNOWN]: Some of it was the environment, but probably it was also just candid equality, right?
- 21:58[UNKNOWN]: The candidate for the environment was the thing, but they can't candid equality.
- 22:06[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and what I want to say is they, I mean, it comes to Texas, I think it's such an interesting one because when you look at the state, right, and you look at like a map and like the look at the New York Times map right now, they if you look at the last couple like the 244 election.
- 22:22[UNKNOWN]: You know, they like a big thing under Trump is they this happened pretty much nationwide is they blood support in some of these like upper middle class like white suburbs, you know, like your suburbs and doubt of like Dallas County, you know, places like that like I think.
- 22:42[UNKNOWN]: with your Trump like one, like here's what you go, one, Colin County, high-income suburban county, include City of Plano, Trump won it by 11 points, and swung all the way to a 12-point women for Calarico.
- 22:53[UNKNOWN]: But that used to be like, I think, a 20 or 30 point suburb for Republicans in the past.
- 22:59[UNKNOWN]: And they've lost some of those like, you know, like college educated places, basically.
- 23:04[UNKNOWN]: And
- 23:06[UNKNOWN]: What kept them in, you know, what kept Texas from not being very close in 2024 was the there are these southern counties that are very Hispanic and very rural that Democrats used to do good in and went towards Trump instead.
- 23:23[UNKNOWN]: Like he dug, he dug all counties at big one, like Trump won that by 3.1224 and that this time Trump again won that by 3.24.
- 23:36[UNKNOWN]: He won that county by 46 points.
- 23:41[UNKNOWN]: And that was, again, a three point Trump county in 2024.
- 23:43[UNKNOWN]: And it's because basically, like, I don't, at certain point, they seem to think, I don't know who they thought their base was, right?
- 23:51[UNKNOWN]: It's like, your base became, you know, you swung a bunch of like low-income, Hispanic voters towards you.
- 23:56[UNKNOWN]: That was one of the groups that swung towards them, you know, two years ago, and they quote unquote, we voted them by like, fucking trying to deport their grandmothers.
- 24:04[UNKNOWN]: but they set ice into all these places and fucking rent crazy.
- 24:08[UNKNOWN]: It's like at some point, what do you expect, like they operated in such a way that I understood sometimes why some people seem to think we work and have elections because they operate in the way that made it seem like they did not think they were ever going to have to face the electorate again.
- 24:22[UNKNOWN]: Because it's like again, who is your base?
- 24:24[UNKNOWN]: Who you go?
- 24:25[UNKNOWN]: They also tried to jerry-manor their way to an assured victory.
- 24:28[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
- 24:29[UNKNOWN]: In doing that cherry mandor, they were using the data from 2012.
- 24:32[UNKNOWN]: Exactly.
- 24:33[UNKNOWN]: Which turns out that that was not a reliable way at all, and they became famously dummy mandors.
- 24:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, in North Carolina too.
- 24:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, Florida, Florida not quite as bad.
- 24:44[UNKNOWN]: Not Florida not as badly, but they still lost a few that they tried to Jerry Manif.
- 24:48[UNKNOWN]: They tried to Jerry Manif Democrats out of season.
- 24:50[UNKNOWN]: Some of them will look like they're going to hold on.
- 24:52[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, it's very interesting to me.
- 24:54[UNKNOWN]: It's like, I don't I sort of don't know what through strategy was besides like pure humor.
- 25:00[UNKNOWN]: I guess they just thought they were unbeatable.
- 25:03[UNKNOWN]: And I mean, tried to guess how to strategy.
- 25:05[UNKNOWN]: I think is giving them too much credit in and of it's yeah.
- 25:10[UNKNOWN]: And it's just very like, I don't know.
- 25:11[UNKNOWN]: So like, and now like because like they need to obviously of Texas, like there's a lot of different Republicans freaking out because if Texas is not red in a presidential year, they don't have a path to winning a presidential election.
- 25:26[UNKNOWN]: Like it's just, you know.
- 25:28[UNKNOWN]: because of the electoral college, they just can't do it.
- 25:32[UNKNOWN]: So if you put taxes in the blue column, I mean, that's pretty much game over.
- 25:37[UNKNOWN]: They can't make that up anywhere unless like, you don't have to have to fucking, they have to switch like California or something or New York or whatever, which is a good, it doesn't look like it's any exactly close to happening.
- 25:48[UNKNOWN]: So that's almost like how to name and win the presidency without taxes.
- 25:53[UNKNOWN]: So, yeah, I mean, that's what they're going to spend the next two years freaking out about, I guess.
- 26:01[UNKNOWN]: It's an interesting time, I guess, to be a Republican consultant, because like, what is your party at this point, right?
- 26:07[UNKNOWN]: What are you also also an interesting time to be a CEO of a major company who quietly rolled back all their DEI initiatives, because you thought you were living in the Trump Imperium, and now you're under woke two, what are you going to do?
- 26:22[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I just don't really get, I don't know.
- 26:26[UNKNOWN]: Like, I think there was an element in 2012, especially among the tech sector who had gotten a lot of... You mean 2024?
- 26:33[UNKNOWN]: No, yeah, 2024, yeah.
- 26:37[UNKNOWN]: Especially in the tech sector who had gotten a lot of heat from regulators in the Biden administration that they were hoping that a friendly Republican administration would have to be the future.
- 26:52[UNKNOWN]: and hold all three branches of government like this, then surely that's just what the path is because that's what they wanted to see, right?
- 27:00[UNKNOWN]: I guess, but it's so weird to me because we're living in, like, I don't know, I just don't understand how you can grow up in the current era we're living in, and see a narrow victory.
- 27:12[UNKNOWN]: Like they had one of the smallest house priorities,
- 27:15[UNKNOWN]: Also a lot of these people like purposefully put themselves in information bubbles with other children Like Elon Musk for example, basically gave himself brain damage buying Twitter, right?
- 27:27[UNKNOWN]: And that explains a lot of his behavior.
- 27:29[UNKNOWN]: He just spends his time hanging out with some of the most brain poison chuds that the internet could produce and a lot of them probably aren't even American
- 27:38[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and what's the same like one that the fucking uh, the meta asshole.
- 27:43[UNKNOWN]: He wanted that.
- 27:44[UNKNOWN]: Oh, that's a book.
- 27:45[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, exactly.
- 27:45[UNKNOWN]: We're going to be true, too.
- 27:47[UNKNOWN]: Like yeah, it's like, uh, I like they, they've so, but like you, you kind of, when you, when you like grow up in this era, it's like, all we've grown up with is swinging back and forth, right?
- 27:57[UNKNOWN]: Because people are so dissatisfied.
- 27:59[UNKNOWN]: with the elites in this country as a strip because this country fucking sucks and it fucking, you know, it doesn't do anything for anyone.
- 28:06[UNKNOWN]: So all we do is find back and forth between the two parties basically.
- 28:10[UNKNOWN]: So I don't know how the fuck you could come to the conclusion that a Republican party with like one of the smallest house majorities for a for a trio ever, you know, for like having all three branches of government ever is going to just be like this fucking, you know,
- 28:28[UNKNOWN]: Like, why did you think, like, there's always a fucking backlash in this term.
- 28:31[UNKNOWN]: Why would there not be a bunch of shit?
- 28:32[UNKNOWN]: I got a minimum, at minimum, they were always gonna lose the house.
- 28:35[UNKNOWN]: It's not that the Republicans were so horrible with, you know, during the last two years that it turned into what it turned into, but they, like, people said they were gonna lose the house the day after that election.
- 28:46[UNKNOWN]: So, I don't, I don't know, it's a very weird domain.
- 28:50[UNKNOWN]: I don't really care.
- 28:51[UNKNOWN]: I'd love to know what the fuck they were thinking.
- 28:52[UNKNOWN]: I never, I haven't really read a great great explanation with a site.
- 28:55[UNKNOWN]: Honestly, what you just said is probably the best act we've seen.
- 28:58[UNKNOWN]: It's like our scene are heard that like they just were living in such a bubble.
- 29:02[UNKNOWN]: Because like, yeah, you go outside of the nobody, nobody in the real world fucking believes have the shit you see on Twitter Like the people on Twitter like the fucking charge on Twitter that want a fucking like You know go back to women not being able to vote and shit who the fuck that's no one's no one's actually saying that in a real world, right?
- 29:19[UNKNOWN]: So it's just very like I mean the ones who are all young Republican staffers, so yeah
- 29:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so like they got caught in this bubble and they thought they were, they thought they, I don't know, I guess that's a good explanation is that it's like, there's so online poison and the Biden administration could be very online poison to it times, so I guess that's just like a thing, you know, both sides are going to have to like try to avoid the future.
- 29:43[UNKNOWN]: I think it's an all agree that it's good for us to lock off for extended periods of time.
- 29:50[UNKNOWN]: Not last night though, last night was a lot of fun.
- 29:52[UNKNOWN]: Last night was a lot of fun.
- 29:53[UNKNOWN]: I was right there with you.
- 29:55[UNKNOWN]: I spent a lot of it actually watching.
- 29:58[UNKNOWN]: Hussohn Piker streams and Edendure Mitten streams and the majority report.
- 30:05[UNKNOWN]: Everybody was celebrating having a great time making lots of jokes.
- 30:08[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I was just watching actual TV, but I switched back.
- 30:11[UNKNOWN]: I was watching.
- 30:12[UNKNOWN]: I can't stand cable anymore.
- 30:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, no, I got it.
- 30:15[UNKNOWN]: It's like the only time you ever want it.
- 30:16[UNKNOWN]: I want cable.
- 30:17[UNKNOWN]: I guess was during this.
- 30:18[UNKNOWN]: But like watching Fox news during that was really like I would switch over to them just to see what they were doing and they were like, oh my god, they were fucking funny.
- 30:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, well, they remember when Trump won the second time how there were a lot of edits of sad liberals.
- 30:33[UNKNOWN]: We, it's now the chuts turn to get edits of them being really sad and liberals laughing at them.
- 30:41[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 30:42[UNKNOWN]: But, and they're horrible people, so they actually deserve it.
- 30:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 30:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 30:47[UNKNOWN]: 100%.
- 30:48[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 30:49[UNKNOWN]: Like what?
- 30:50[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 30:51[UNKNOWN]: Like, you know.
- 30:53[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, I'm not going to, I shouldn't say anything that will alienate, potentially alienate listeners anymore, but I can't imagine.
- 30:59[UNKNOWN]: I couldn't really have that many Trump supporter listeners, I wasn't listening to the gay Japanese wrestling podcast, it's like, I don't know, I don't exactly hide, it's like, oh, I mean, I'm a big Trump supporter, I think, uh, I think all these immigrants should get out of my country and I think, uh, homosexualized should be bad, banned, kind of fire
- 31:22[UNKNOWN]: I give the wrestling taste with the rotating cast of other nerds.
- 31:26[UNKNOWN]: What?
- 31:27[UNKNOWN]: I don't think there's a lot of crowds over there.
- 31:28[UNKNOWN]: It could be wrong.
- 31:30[UNKNOWN]: But yeah.
- 31:31[UNKNOWN]: And knowing the content of the wrestling this week, it's going to be even greater than usual.
- 31:36[UNKNOWN]: I promise you.
- 31:37[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the part the the the turn that's all the way back to the shows we're going to talk about here in a fact, I was going to cover, I was going to play in a watch, you know, the two shows yesterday and there's planning on the office today.
- 31:49[UNKNOWN]: And then I just never slept and I never got back to the show.
- 31:51[UNKNOWN]: So I'm like, oh, I don't want to be off it.
- 31:53[UNKNOWN]: Like, I think I'm full.
- 31:54[UNKNOWN]: See, like,
- 31:57[UNKNOWN]: And then like, so maybe it's like four hours and then yeah, then I had to watch, I got through a bunch of stuff already, but I had to watch like half of the ultimate party and the last two matches of Paris Frecko today and say, yeah, especially with, I'm glad the only itself I saw, yeah, should I before, you know, once the election set really started coming in was like the power struggle like undercard and because I watched them all the party live the night before it's just started like midnight Eastern.
- 32:21[UNKNOWN]: Because we're in the good the good target was by the way they what they even want to get rid of this from me They want to take away fucking the time of year when Japan is fucking 14 hours ahead
- 32:31[UNKNOWN]: Like sometimes it's the Trump administration.
- 32:33[UNKNOWN]: Like, okay, yes, obviously they do a lot of horrible stuff.
- 32:37[UNKNOWN]: They anyone would find horrible.
- 32:39[UNKNOWN]: But then other times it's like, you even want to take away my few months where I can start my Japanese wrestling shows an hour earlier.
- 32:46[UNKNOWN]: Like, sometimes I feel like somebody has a board in there where they're like things, John specifically likes, like because they throw a fucking dart at it.
- 32:54[UNKNOWN]: Like, let's fucking take the US dollar while they're in the middle of one of their trips to Japan because they did that to be twice.
- 33:01[UNKNOWN]: I'm like, okay, because I was in Japan where the tariff liberation day, the fucking take the dollar, whereas in the middle of, you know, obviously spending dollars, you know, to yeah.
- 33:09[UNKNOWN]: And it's like, I don't know, feels like sometimes like the hate me personal.
- 33:12[UNKNOWN]: So, over very petty stuff, which obviously, you know, is nowhere near as important as like, all the people that died, but it's just like, like, can you at least not be an asshole to me about like really petty stuff, like trying to get rid of daily seems time and taking the dollar bomb over there, apparently the answer's down.
- 33:29[UNKNOWN]: Oh, there's another example of that.
- 33:31[UNKNOWN]: The fucking horses.
- 33:33[UNKNOWN]: There are people in the world.
- 33:34[UNKNOWN]: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, Uma Musume.
- 33:37[UNKNOWN]: There are people in America.
- 33:39[UNKNOWN]: I swear to God, this is true.
- 33:40[UNKNOWN]: I've seen them say it on Twitter, who were not playing to vote in this election.
- 33:45[UNKNOWN]: Obviously it's not an actually swinging election, especially given the line inside it was.
- 33:48[UNKNOWN]: But it'd be funny if it wasn't up to swing this zippy or something, considerate.
- 33:50[UNKNOWN]: Which is possible, considering the final margins going to be like 0.1% or whatever,
- 34:00[UNKNOWN]: There are people in America that voted straight blue tickets that either were not going to vote at all or maybe even who the fuck knew that there were plugins that swept because the Trump fucking immigration department wouldn't approve these in time for the U.S. What is it, U.S. and the U.S. and the idols who are the voice actresses and idol performers for the horses in this mobile game.
- 34:28[UNKNOWN]: Um, I know this can sound bizarre, but just hang with me here.
- 34:31[UNKNOWN]: Um, they will sometimes put on live concerts.
- 34:33[UNKNOWN]: They were a huge deal in Japan.
- 34:34[UNKNOWN]: They could fill the Tokyo dump for this kind of thing.
- 34:37[UNKNOWN]: And they were a wide ticket sold.
- 34:39[UNKNOWN]: And it was sold out.
- 34:39[UNKNOWN]: On a ticket sold for this big show in Los Angeles that would have been the first show on American soil.
- 34:45[UNKNOWN]: First time that a lot of fans would have gotten to see some of their favorite idols.
- 34:50[UNKNOWN]: And, uh, it all had to be canceled on top of that.
- 34:57[UNKNOWN]: to refund them their travel expenses.
- 34:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that was really nice.
- 35:00[UNKNOWN]: So they did not have, they did not have to do that.
- 35:03[UNKNOWN]: No, not at all.
- 35:04[UNKNOWN]: I'm not saying hand to the corporations, but that was like, you know, because it wasn't their fault.
- 35:09[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, that was nice of them to do that.
- 35:12[UNKNOWN]: I think it also shows just how much money they're making.
- 35:15[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
- 35:16[UNKNOWN]: All right.
- 35:18[UNKNOWN]: Why does cyber agents seem to be able to buy or stream most of the wrestling companies and then of them seem really all that affected by financial pressure?
- 35:27[UNKNOWN]: a part of it is horse girls.
- 35:29[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because there's a cyber agent, I push you road.
- 35:33[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, sorry.
- 35:33[UNKNOWN]: I said, I'm a spoke earlier.
- 35:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 35:37[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 35:38[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 35:38[UNKNOWN]: Cyber agent, I mean, the part of the problem is they haven't had a big hit in a while.
- 35:43[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, cyber agent, they've, they've got a lot of money that's for sure or so.
- 35:47[UNKNOWN]: Um,
- 35:48[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I just funny I think about the actual people in America that voted straight blow because that were either wouldn't have voted or maybe even would have voted right or something.
- 35:55[UNKNOWN]: Well, because the horse comes react instantly.
- 35:58[UNKNOWN]: And I don't know if we'll ever find out about this, but think of the TJPW tours that they've been doing recently and how many people they've been leaving behind for some of the tours.
- 36:08[UNKNOWN]: How much of that is simply they couldn't get a visa for some of them?
- 36:11[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 36:12[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, I mean, even before the second Trump administration, my understanding is it was still a huge pain to get working visas in the U.S.
- 36:24[UNKNOWN]: So you could legally come in and do your performances as a wrestler.
- 36:29[UNKNOWN]: I think famously,
- 36:33[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that was the first government administration, but they've made it harder, but it's one of those things where Democrats also haven't like ramped up the resources of immigration officials either because
- 37:02[UNKNOWN]: Everyone who is in this country legally, not just anyone who is here illegally.
- 37:08[UNKNOWN]: Or people who just want to come over, or people who just want to come over for a short time to perform in a super concert.
- 37:13[UNKNOWN]: That's what we're solving weaves.
- 37:15[UNKNOWN]: Yes, exactly.
- 37:16[UNKNOWN]: I mean, there was a new Japan show, too.
- 37:17[UNKNOWN]: The new Japan new beginning show.
- 37:20[UNKNOWN]: New beginning US show.
- 37:21[UNKNOWN]: I think it's 2020, right, before the fucking Kobe kicked in.
- 37:26[UNKNOWN]: And they had to fucking cancel.
- 37:28[UNKNOWN]: I mean, they still ran the shows that they lost all the Japanese town that was supposed to be there.
- 37:32[UNKNOWN]: Because they couldn't get the reasons for it.
- 37:34[UNKNOWN]: and that again I was doing Trump one.
- 37:36[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, I mean, it's like, you know, with that kind of stuff, obviously this stuff is incredibly stupid and patty compared to most of the actual horrible stuff they do, but it's still socks, right, for the people who are fans.
- 37:45[UNKNOWN]: And then you get like to fucking tariffs and shit, have to pay whenever we import stuff now.
- 37:50[UNKNOWN]: And it's like, yeah, let's just
- 37:51[UNKNOWN]: You know, he just, they just fucking suck.
- 37:53[UNKNOWN]: And again, I'm not going to apologize for being happy with these people lost and, you know, hopefully they lose again in 2028 because I just, the Democrats, you know, obviously they do, they do things I don't love to and they, you know, the, especially some of the fucking lame centrist ones can be really fucking annoying, but like, I don't know, I don't know, I just want to still try to argue with people that they're not.
- 38:12[UNKNOWN]: Like, what I see people, the best, the best part about Democrats winning 54, 55,
- 38:18[UNKNOWN]: Maybe even as many as 56 seats as Fetterman is just not relevant in there.
- 38:23[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, he really sat there thinking we're going to win 51 seats and I'm going to be a fucking king maker.
- 38:28[UNKNOWN]: They got to listen to me a lot of going to jump over and get problems to set it.
- 38:33[UNKNOWN]: It's not so fast, motherfucker.
- 38:37[UNKNOWN]: Why am I taking them from 54 to 53 or from 56 to 55?
- 38:40[UNKNOWN]: Woo, yeah, yeah, it's very funny, but yeah.
- 38:48[UNKNOWN]: I mean, you know, that there's there's no denying that we are in the near future.
- 38:55[UNKNOWN]: Going to have a lot of frustrating political news and a lot of it's going to come from Democrats or because by Democrats, right, but this is the time right now to kind of celebrate.
- 39:07[UNKNOWN]: Because you don't get that many chances quite frankly, certainly haven't in the Trump
- 39:17[UNKNOWN]: which I would include the Biden in the Rickenham in that period.
- 39:21[UNKNOWN]: It has been 12, we're going through, currently 10 years, it's going to be at least 12 grinding years of Trump being a main character in our lives.
- 39:33[UNKNOWN]: And that has fucking sucked.
- 39:35[UNKNOWN]: This feels like we as a nation have crossed the Rubicon in a way that we absolutely did not when Biden won the presidency.
- 39:46[UNKNOWN]: at this is no longer just Democrats won.
- 39:51[UNKNOWN]: It's, this is a real alignment.
- 39:53[UNKNOWN]: This is one of those huge wins that John was talking about earlier.
- 39:57[UNKNOWN]: Where political scientists go back and they point to that as a moment where politics, the political landscape changed so completely that it completely scrambled whatever the old understanding of what was and wasn't politically relevant.
- 40:12[UNKNOWN]: And what was and wasn't politically popular
- 40:16[UNKNOWN]: yeah.
- 40:18[UNKNOWN]: So hopefully better things are possible in the near future.
- 40:21[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, you know, maybe some of these like new populist sounding Democrats are a little better than the establishment.
- 40:29[UNKNOWN]: I was saying I'm optimistic about some of the younger ones for sure, like Elsa Yeet seems like the stand-up guy.
- 40:36[UNKNOWN]: I've been really impressed with Mom Donnie for the most part.
- 40:39[UNKNOWN]: Like there's
- 40:44[UNKNOWN]: been a proactive about being a mayor in a way that's basically refreshing to read about, even all the way here in Iowa.
- 40:53[UNKNOWN]: There is a kind of politician who expects to kind of waltz in and just do whatever.
- 41:03[UNKNOWN]: It feels like Maldon is the kind of politician who is conscious of the fact that he is basically up for his next vote every day on the job.
- 41:13[UNKNOWN]: And that's refreshing to see you're hoping that work ethic is going to be reflected in a lot of the rest of the new class of Democrats in the House and Senate.
- 41:25[UNKNOWN]: You're in Des Moines, by the way, right?
- 41:26[UNKNOWN]: I'm in Des Moines, yeah.
- 41:28[UNKNOWN]: So your district went from 11.1 by for Kamala in 2024 to the Democrat in the Senate, Josh Turric winning by 27 points.
- 41:39[UNKNOWN]: Wow.
- 41:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 41:41[UNKNOWN]: It's crazy.
- 41:45[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, yeah, I just like looking at the maps and stuff.
- 41:48[UNKNOWN]: We really just get down like wow.
- 41:49[UNKNOWN]: It's like, uh, it's fun to see the arrows pointing left on the New York Times map that they do for what the swings look like.
- 41:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 42:00[UNKNOWN]: Mom with County, which is back in New Jersey, which is not that far from where I grew up all over New Jersey actually.
- 42:07[UNKNOWN]: Not from one place to figure it up, and that was always like one of the Republican suburban counties, and you know, he trumped one of I 11 points in 2024.
- 42:18[UNKNOWN]: Cory Booker, the Democrat, one of my six points this year.
- 42:20[UNKNOWN]: It's crazy.
- 42:21[UNKNOWN]: I never thought Mom would go fucking blue.
- 42:24[UNKNOWN]: uh, middle sex, which is actually, that's where I, that actually is one of the ones I grew up in, which is right next to a moment, and that's also like where Joe Lanes of the flagship is originally from.
- 42:34[UNKNOWN]: That's how you've met Cory Booker?
- 42:37[UNKNOWN]: Oh, no, I don't think so.
- 42:38[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because I mean, I live in Iowa, and that used to be where the primary started.
- 42:42[UNKNOWN]: Uh, asshole.
- 42:46[UNKNOWN]: He's asshole.
- 42:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 42:48[UNKNOWN]: Was, he also wasn't, I don't think it was really for anything at the time either.
- 42:54[UNKNOWN]: on.
- 42:55[UNKNOWN]: Let's say.
- 42:56[UNKNOWN]: Oh, I say.
- 42:58[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, he won.
- 42:58[UNKNOWN]: He won middle sex by 35 points when come out only one that by eight points.
- 43:02[UNKNOWN]: So it's kind of crazy.
- 43:05[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I just Trump won for Steakhead.
- 43:08[UNKNOWN]: I don't want to grow up in by three points and quite a vocal one that by 28.
- 43:13[UNKNOWN]: It looks like.
- 43:15[UNKNOWN]: Like, I don't know, people are just like, you just like, normy fucking dams, you know, or normy Republicans who, or like, soft Republicans or whatever, who thought they were voting for like, I don't know, cheaper, I'd draw up with a fucking did not.
- 43:28[UNKNOWN]: Did not think they were voting for the Gestapo, you know, like they got, so.
- 43:32[UNKNOWN]: No, no, I think how immigration has been weaponized has,
- 43:41[UNKNOWN]: also been a huge factor in this like you were talking about.
- 43:43[UNKNOWN]: I think a lot of people have in their mind because they just watch too much cable news, a distorted understanding of the reality of immigration in this country and part of why the ice rates and occupations in cities in America have been so egregious is because Trump and Miller set goals for ice
- 44:09[UNKNOWN]: that were based on those fantasy understandings of immigration demanding that millions of people be deported because they live in a fantasy reality where these immigrants are all sneaking over the border and sneakily getting paid to vote for Democrats and elections.
- 44:35[UNKNOWN]: a lot of people who just are tied up in paperwork for one reason or another.
- 44:40[UNKNOWN]: And they were here legally to begin with.
- 44:42[UNKNOWN]: They are still here legally by most.
- 44:44[UNKNOWN]: By what most people would understand?
- 44:46[UNKNOWN]: Well, actually, you know what?
- 44:48[UNKNOWN]: That made me fuck it.
- 44:49[UNKNOWN]: This one didn't get any national attention or anything like some of the other things.
- 44:53[UNKNOWN]: So we'll get to go back to that.
- 44:55[UNKNOWN]: This is like how the Uma Uma, I got to get, I know I can never remember how it was.
- 44:59[UNKNOWN]: Uma, muzzame.
- 45:00[UNKNOWN]: You want to move to me, like so that whole story there was like a fucking really sad and raging part of that story, too, where this this trans woman who I guess was over, she was technically illegal immigrant because she stayed too long on her student visa.
- 45:21[UNKNOWN]: got went to LA, you know, for this concert that didn't end up happening.
- 45:26[UNKNOWN]: And as she was trying to go home, you know, back heading to Washington State and board a fight.
- 45:31[UNKNOWN]: They fucking, like abducted her at the airport.
- 45:35[UNKNOWN]: And
- 45:37[UNKNOWN]: like fucking like and she was they basically act like she was resisting because she asked them to identify themselves in their triangular ruster and they fucking like tackled her to the ground and you know, broke one of her legs and then took her to a, you know, if you told this whole story when she got out and took her to a, um,
- 45:54[UNKNOWN]: holding facility where she was like an incredible pain with this broken limb for like 12 hours and would not give her any kind of like medical attention or anything until you know finally she was able to get out and get you know after like screaming and paying for 12 hours they finally did
- 46:10[UNKNOWN]: The only reason why they let her go is because she had, um, I guess she had bottom surgery and they were not allowed to keep anyone who didn't have a penis, basically.
- 46:17[UNKNOWN]: Like it's supposed to be a male.
- 46:19[UNKNOWN]: Like under even under a very requested definition of what male is, I guess.
- 46:22[UNKNOWN]: If you didn't have a penis, they, they, the courts would say they couldn't keep the mayor basically.
- 46:27[UNKNOWN]: Um, so that's the only reason why she got out is because she had bottom surgery.
- 46:32[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, as insane.
- 46:34[UNKNOWN]: And that's the only reason why she got medical attention for a broken leg.
- 46:38[UNKNOWN]: Um, we, we need mass trials in this country.
- 46:41[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 46:41[UNKNOWN]: But what I'm saying, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
- 46:43[UNKNOWN]: The glimpse of the horns that have happened to you.
- 46:45[UNKNOWN]: So like this story, this story, I would never know about it.
- 46:49[UNKNOWN]: If I wasn't a fondling of a bunch of people who are webs who were in LA for this concert,
- 46:55[UNKNOWN]: because they're the only ones to talk about, it did not make any national news.
- 46:58[UNKNOWN]: So it makes you want, like, think, how many other fucking people have gone through shit that just as bad or worse, that didn't make national news, because the only thing that's making national news for ICE is when people actually die.
- 47:09[UNKNOWN]: Maming somebody.
- 47:10[UNKNOWN]: Or that there's nobody there to record it happening to.
- 47:13[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it's another thing.
- 47:14[UNKNOWN]: Maming.
- 47:15[UNKNOWN]: maiming somebody, breaking their fucking leg and refusing the medical attention, you know, the napkin, like I'm getting upset all over again.
- 47:23[UNKNOWN]: You know, the fucking people who went on fucking Twitter and fucking tried to tell me that, and anyone else, that we weren't out loud to be happy that these pieces of shit lost its election, like go fuck yourself with that to you.
- 47:34[UNKNOWN]: Like I'm not even kidding.
- 47:35[UNKNOWN]: Like I'm not loud to be happy that these apps, like these are not just, this is not even fucking regular awful Republicans.
- 47:44[UNKNOWN]: and like I don't I don't want to hear it like they fucking break in people's legs and throw them in fucking holding cells for when out medical attention for a fucking you know for fucking 12 hours and the only reason why I see even got out is because of a super fucking loophole that a fucking you know this court case was fun and like thank God we at least have you know we have the courts I guess in this country is the only thing that's restrained them at all is you know these courts well the courts have also done a lot to enable them to
- 48:11[UNKNOWN]: especially because they only answer to a special secret court that is not as well understood.
- 48:18[UNKNOWN]: But it's something, I mean, it's like, without them, without that, without them, we wouldn't even have, she would still be in there, presumably.
- 48:25[UNKNOWN]: So, yeah, I don't know, just, but that's one story, right, like I said, there's so many more that I would never heard about, probably because they didn't take place.
- 48:37[UNKNOWN]: They didn't have to take place at this fucking anime adjacent thing that I happen to hear about because that's where I fall on Twitter.
- 48:44[UNKNOWN]: So,
- 48:45[UNKNOWN]: just awful.
- 48:46[UNKNOWN]: The ice stuff, it's like, like, we're going to need, like, dormant trials and shed some point, like, for ice, I mean, it is good now.
- 48:53[UNKNOWN]: It is, it is concerning to hear democratic leaders, like a King Jeff for he's talk about.
- 48:59[UNKNOWN]: We were not going to, uh, uh, I forget the exact freezing, but yeah, he's like, not vengeance or something.
- 49:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like, it's like, nobody's asking for vengeance, but we need justice in this
- 49:15[UNKNOWN]: Otherwise, it's just going to happen again and worse.
- 49:19[UNKNOWN]: We have to hold people accountable.
- 49:21[UNKNOWN]: I worry when I see the an attitude like that from leaders in the party.
- 49:27[UNKNOWN]: Hopefully that doesn't hold.
- 49:29[UNKNOWN]: I don't think everyone holds that opinion for sure.
- 49:31[UNKNOWN]: I'm hoping they're full of shit for now, and they're just going to change it once, especially once they have the presidency again, hopefully.
- 49:36[UNKNOWN]: But I don't know.
- 49:38[UNKNOWN]: The Biden administration's shouldn't fucking do shit.
- 49:42[UNKNOWN]: But I mean, I just, yeah, I can talk about this for hours, by the way.
- 49:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah, we probably, I know we're like 48 minutes at this point.
- 49:49[UNKNOWN]: I was going to try to do some of my sling.
- 49:51[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so we did a lot of politics, but you know, it was like the biggest fucking thing in 50 years.
- 49:56[UNKNOWN]: I do want to, I do want to hear from, almonds, if you are from Europe, how much of this was legible to you?
- 50:04[UNKNOWN]: Because I get the impression that a lot of American politics because it is,
- 50:09[UNKNOWN]: It's globally important to you, even if you live in Germany, who wins Iowa.
- 50:14[UNKNOWN]: I'm sorry that that's the case, but that's just how it is.
- 50:18[UNKNOWN]: But I also wonder if there's like a lot of nuances that John and I take for granted because we both read about this crap all the time about how the American system works, how the American election system works, pulling and set one, that may not be relevant to your country.
- 50:34[UNKNOWN]: I'm just curious how much that translates.
- 50:37[UNKNOWN]: I did watch some of the Japanese coverage of it and they did seem like very like trying like Japanese people trying to explain the American system even from what I can understand from my limited Japanese is very funny because they're just like they you can tell they're very confused by all of it just like okay so I saw a tweet I don't know if this is true but so is it true that because the Japanese didn't want to translate blue wave or blue tsunami
- 51:07[UNKNOWN]: I think that's right.
- 51:08[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I think I saw something like that's really funny because yeah, they don't like they don't like Sudan.
- 51:12[UNKNOWN]: He's obviously obviously obviously I think I think they have to deal with some of the reasons that kills lots of their people.
- 51:18[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, they call it like I think what the fuck, I'm trying to remember what the term was.
- 51:21[UNKNOWN]: It was something like blue boiling or something.
- 51:23[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like a blue skullding or yeah, I've, I try to find it, but it was something something like that.
- 51:29[UNKNOWN]: That's one of those tweets where I was like, I'm not going to look into this at all.
- 51:32[UNKNOWN]: It's just funny and I'll take it as true.
- 51:34[UNKNOWN]: Japan blue scalding.
- 51:37[UNKNOWN]: Let me see if I can find it because I've now I remember seeing something like that.
- 51:43[UNKNOWN]: Okay, since blue.
- 51:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, oh national scolding.
- 51:49[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I said national scolding, right?
- 51:51[UNKNOWN]: Nothing's scolding.
- 51:52[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah.
- 51:53[UNKNOWN]: My body in Japan has informed me that since blue wave and tsunami have entirely different cultural contacts, the Japanese press is varying the last
- 52:02[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 52:03[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that's literally the tweet I saw.
- 52:06[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 52:06[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I'm like, uh...
- 52:10[UNKNOWN]: And yes, I'm like, look at a Japanese treat.
- 52:14[UNKNOWN]: A regarding the expression blues here now, and I'm a user described democratic parties with victories.
- 52:19[UNKNOWN]: I think there's actually no problem of calling it a celebrate the wins, but tsunami is a word averaging from Japan and was the cause of countless loss of countless lives.
- 52:28[UNKNOWN]: If you're interested to keep that in mind, they don't like that we use that term, I guess.
- 52:31[UNKNOWN]: But...
- 52:32[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I get because it is a Japanese term, but yeah, because I mean, I get it though because it's like what's bigger than a wave, you know, I mean it's like a wave does not adequately explain what happened I mean it's so fucking it is a fucking it has to be something bigger than a wave and I guess you could say like title wave or something but that kills people too.
- 52:54[UNKNOWN]: But anyway.
- 52:56[UNKNOWN]: All right, that's okay.
- 52:58[UNKNOWN]: No, that's also a problem.
- 53:00[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, I don't, it's always been weird to me that we have a hockey team called the hurricanes.
- 53:06[UNKNOWN]: Like, that kills loss of people.
- 53:08[UNKNOWN]: Like, why do you why are we naming our hockey team the hurricanes?
- 53:12[UNKNOWN]: So, yeah, say the blow of sir when kills, kills random lands.
- 53:17[UNKNOWN]: They're in
- 53:20[UNKNOWN]: let's care a line okay yeah let's care a line it doesn't get a lot of her kings thank you they do they do the ramic yeah the ramian land coast all right no well I do they were coastal all right you know stupid question I'll but yeah cut that out you know you know I want to cut it out well they don't get so they don't get as far as that's what you mean but they get I think they get they get about the same as we get or maybe slightly
- 53:48[UNKNOWN]: Because, you know, cost any cost of state will get some, but, yeah, I don't know, it'd be like, I'd be like, if they add an Iowa hockey team or like the Iowa tornadoes, it's like, isn't that something that comes through and like randomly demonstration destroy people and kills people over there and like, I don't know.
- 54:04[UNKNOWN]: Well, famously, one of our most popular college football teams are nicknamed the Cyclone, so.
- 54:13[UNKNOWN]: Get already excited.
- 54:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I guess this is the thing people just do the name their teams after horrific weatherfronts is I killed a full Come to think of it airs kill a lot of people, but there's foggo bears I've been in cups of killed people, but there's the Chicago cups actually I bet most of football mascots the sports mascots are named after things the kill people
- 54:41[UNKNOWN]: That's how you know they're dangerous.
- 54:43[UNKNOWN]: Maybe you've owned me here.
- 54:44[UNKNOWN]: But the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the answer to the
- 55:12[UNKNOWN]: But, hey, Wizardskill people too, like not reality, but We're gonna call for the non-groups or non-people, which I guess is technically true.
- 55:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, look, I don't have any problematic teams in my, the New York Rangers Rangers don't kill anybody.
- 55:32[UNKNOWN]: Uh, I've got bad news for you about the Texas Rangers.
- 55:42[UNKNOWN]: They do kill people in America.
- 55:43[UNKNOWN]: I'm thinking like I'm thinking of like power Rangers, I guess Or like or like or like I don't know or like like Park Rangers like what you're talking about like you're talking about like the actual like Cowboys or something That's what you mean.
- 55:57[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah, sure.
- 55:57[UNKNOWN]: It's the park.
- 55:58[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 55:59[UNKNOWN]: I say yeah, well, they I guess they do kill people then I was thinking of like fucking, you know, yogi bears still in the tick-bass
- 56:07[UNKNOWN]: I was in the power range is what I was not thinking about that kind of range.
- 56:10[UNKNOWN]: I guess I guess I get you've owned me Where they are the range Okay, are you talking the blue jays?
- 56:16[UNKNOWN]: Do are is there a national fucking you move is come down and peck people in the face?
- 56:21[UNKNOWN]: I have you seen the movie the birds But that's not a document her is how I mean it was real to me when I watched it
- 56:31[UNKNOWN]: Okay, you know they're making my friend totally out of there were making that into a series.
- 56:35[UNKNOWN]: I was like, how are you going to do an entire series based on birds attacking people?
- 56:39[UNKNOWN]: Sure.
- 56:39[UNKNOWN]: It was barely enough to do a movie.
- 56:41[UNKNOWN]: You would think the movie would be a stretch, but it worked.
- 56:45[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 56:45[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 56:46[UNKNOWN]: That's that's increasingly a common thing, isn't it nowadays?
- 56:49[UNKNOWN]: I saw that there was a Friday the 13th sequel recently.
- 56:53[UNKNOWN]: That's like six episodes long of TV.
- 56:56[UNKNOWN]: I heard it was really good too.
- 56:58[UNKNOWN]: I should watch that sometime.
- 57:00[UNKNOWN]: Um, so yeah, there's the, there's the blue jays.
- 57:03[UNKNOWN]: Now, the other team, uh, the LA Kings.
- 57:06[UNKNOWN]: I guess Kings have definitely killed a lot of people.
- 57:08[UNKNOWN]: So I can't.
- 57:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 57:09[UNKNOWN]: That one, I can't, I cannot say anything.
- 57:12[UNKNOWN]: Um, Kelsey, I don't know.
- 57:15[UNKNOWN]: What's the house?
- 57:15[UNKNOWN]: Chelsea's the actual nickname again.
- 57:17[UNKNOWN]: The Chelsea Blues.
- 57:18[UNKNOWN]: That's the color blue killed people.
- 57:21[UNKNOWN]: Uh, um, I can, hang on.
- 57:24[UNKNOWN]: I can make this work.
- 57:25[UNKNOWN]: Just
- 57:31[UNKNOWN]: the blues killed you're going to tell me like the color blues somehow killed people well well famously in american music uh the blues are a product of slavery which is definitely killed a lot of people john so you got me there you once again you got me i guess the blue jays might be by all me non-problematic team that's name
- 57:56[UNKNOWN]: And of course they're from Canada.
- 57:58[UNKNOWN]: They they wouldn't have a violent team nickname in Canada Which is often there can't can't can't are the only Can't can't hockey you're the Montreal canans and Vancouver canucks to seem fucking thin They have them they believe there.
- 58:12[UNKNOWN]: They named their teams after trees
- 58:16[UNKNOWN]: Well, at least that's the national like Lee for whatever I don't know.
- 58:19[UNKNOWN]: But like Canadians, it can not, it'd be like if you had like the fucking New York Yankees but then also like the fucking Texas Americans or something.
- 58:29[UNKNOWN]: This has to be one of the dumbest bits we've done.
- 58:34[UNKNOWN]: And you and I have done a lot of stupid bits, or specifically have at least.
- 58:41[UNKNOWN]: None of these rustic shows are that interesting to me so I guess we're we're going to be able to get through them pretty much No, we're going to go long John because I've really enjoyed almost all the shows I mean, they're pretty good, but just not I think there's a lot going on Alright, let's get to let's see if we can get to him before the first hours over New Japan power struggle
- 59:00[UNKNOWN]: from yesterday.
- 59:00[UNKNOWN]: I remember third at the Hiroshima Sun Plaza Hall, a great attendance number, 3,683.
- 59:09[UNKNOWN]: That's way up from the G1 show earlier this year.
- 59:11[UNKNOWN]: That was headlined by the Keshe and Goto in the same building that did 255.
- 59:16[UNKNOWN]: Also up, way up from Red Zone Hiroshima in April 25th, that was 253 with knockout brothers versus B-Shama on top.
- 59:25[UNKNOWN]: Last year's Paris struggle was the Tana homecoming show in Gifu, that did 3,742.
- 59:30[UNKNOWN]: So I'll put that, this is down a teensy bit from Tana Hashi's, fucking like down 39 fans from Tana Hashi's last show in his home prefectures, kind of crazy.
- 59:41[UNKNOWN]: If you want to know anything, the last time anything this venue even came close.
- 59:45[UNKNOWN]: And specifically, he'll share some thoughts all, because usually they don't run powers forever here.
- 59:49[UNKNOWN]: Usually they run at 80 on one, but this is like the last year of 80 on one being closed for the, and I'll suck at being closed for the renovations.
- 59:56[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the last damn time anything was 50 even came close.
- 1:00:01[UNKNOWN]: Red Zone in Hiroshima in 2025 did 3,018.
- 1:00:02[UNKNOWN]: So that was at least above 3,000.
- 1:00:08[UNKNOWN]: that was the only other post-pandemic show to be that high.
- 1:00:12[UNKNOWN]: Now, it doesn't really matter what the main event was for that.
- 1:00:14[UNKNOWN]: The reason why that did over 3,000 was because that was during the night-toe goodbye tour.
- 1:00:19[UNKNOWN]: And obviously, night-toe has a connection to Hiroshima being a big carp fan.
- 1:00:24[UNKNOWN]: But then you can go back to pre-pandemic, the G1 show in 2019 with night show and ECHE on top to 3,041.
- 1:00:30[UNKNOWN]: So even that one lost in it would have lost this show.
- 1:00:33[UNKNOWN]: So the last show that beat this number, you have to go back to destruction in Hiroshima 2018, Kenny Omega versus Toma here, ECHE man about, for the head of Wretel, I'm actually not like very much by the way.
- 1:00:43[UNKNOWN]: That was 3,761.
- 1:00:46[UNKNOWN]: So that beat this show, but again, only by like,
- 1:00:49[UNKNOWN]: you know, us to 100 fans.
- 1:00:51[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, very strong number here.
- 1:00:53[UNKNOWN]: Um, you know, I don't know if it was like having such an important show here.
- 1:00:58[UNKNOWN]: Um, maybe there's a lot of Kno mega fans in Hiroshima because obviously Kno was on top two years ago.
- 1:01:04[UNKNOWN]: He was in the key match here.
- 1:01:06[UNKNOWN]: Or they came to, they, uh, done by the crowd reaction.
- 1:01:10[UNKNOWN]: I would say a lot of people came out to support the Holy Emperor because he was super over in that made of that.
- 1:01:15[UNKNOWN]: Or I mean, John, I'm going to say a new Japan is hot right now.
- 1:01:20[UNKNOWN]: They are heating up.
- 1:01:21[UNKNOWN]: I mean, they did a really good came for a wrestling number and they did a strong number for this show, too.
- 1:01:26[UNKNOWN]: I will be very curious to see what the, like the rest of the anime bit will be a big test.
- 1:01:33[UNKNOWN]: I mean, that is on Monday.
- 1:01:34[UNKNOWN]: I think anyone, anyone with a brain will tell you that, you know, it's not gonna do a,
- 1:01:47[UNKNOWN]: You know, it's not going to do a comparable number to this past year's show at Tana's retirement, but, you know, how, how well it can do compared to other recent post-pandemic.
- 1:01:58[UNKNOWN]: Russ looking and I think it'll be interesting.
- 1:02:01[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, we will say, I'm looking on to look right now and see if there's any update on the ticket sales.
- 1:02:09[UNKNOWN]: Looking at rest looking down.
- 1:02:13[UNKNOWN]: They did sell out of front row.
- 1:02:15[UNKNOWN]: They still have other world seats available, which is not a great sign.
- 1:02:20[UNKNOWN]: We still have all the other special ones.
- 1:02:23[UNKNOWN]: You see what lost in that as of that?
- 1:02:26[UNKNOWN]: Yes, lost in, okay, I'm on the general sale, thank you.
- 1:02:30[UNKNOWN]: The fucking pre-sales have been gone over for a while now, guys.
- 1:02:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I wouldn't, there's nothing here that I would say, oh yeah, that looks like it's doing really well.
- 1:02:41[UNKNOWN]: I mean, yeah.
- 1:02:44[UNKNOWN]: I guess we'll have to wait and save.
- 1:02:45[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it's always hard to tell what's what can thems and what's it like.
- 1:02:49[UNKNOWN]: That's the section where you're so big, right?
- 1:02:52[UNKNOWN]: Unless it's like on track to do a crazy sell out, like it did with, you know, for time for the time, it's your retirement.
- 1:02:58[UNKNOWN]: It's really hard to see any kind of momentum, cells.
- 1:03:01[UNKNOWN]: So is the fourth a holiday for most people or is it?
- 1:03:06[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:03:06[UNKNOWN]: It's the first day of back at work, and it's a weekend.
- 1:03:10[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that's why I'm Monday.
- 1:03:11[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I'll be interesting because I think you would think a Monday actually wouldn't be as tough as like a Wednesday or something because you could just, you could try to just take that day off maybe, right?
- 1:03:22[UNKNOWN]: Like just extend, you're making like a three-day weekend, but also like, I don't know, so a lot of people in Japan famously do not take a lot of vacation time.
- 1:03:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I was gonna say like famously, they just, yeah, they don't.
- 1:03:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it's not like here where, you know, us lazy Americans can take off all it.
- 1:03:38[UNKNOWN]: No, I shouldn't say that, compared to the real people who take a lot, however, Europeans, but, uh, you know, Yeah, Paul just felt a shiver go up his spine.
- 1:03:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, it's fine.
- 1:03:49[UNKNOWN]: He doesn't know why.
- 1:03:51[UNKNOWN]: He'll find out when he hears the episode.
- 1:04:02[UNKNOWN]: I feel like New Japan.
- 1:04:03[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if this is just, um, if it's just me, ever since the Asahi cyber agent purchase doesn't it seem like they're doing more like Noah asks things with their staging, like dominion, like they have some, like the stage, um, like now with the concentrated, uh, sorry, concentric hexagonal circles that are also, by the way, in green and white,
- 1:04:31[UNKNOWN]: And they're like, it's like three of them.
- 1:04:33[UNKNOWN]: It's like a triple border and like, I don't feel like I don't think that Newspam is doing a lot of that kind of thing.
- 1:04:38[UNKNOWN]: So it looks like you're spending a little more money on production and saving and stuff.
- 1:04:41[UNKNOWN]: No, I just had to read it.
- 1:04:42[UNKNOWN]: Why?
- 1:04:42[UNKNOWN]: Because United Empire is coming out and it might change colors.
- 1:04:46[UNKNOWN]: I think it then.
- 1:04:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:04:48[UNKNOWN]: OK.
- 1:04:49[UNKNOWN]: And like, Dominion, I think had something similar when I was there, um, which was a little bit after that the sale and finalized, so yeah, I feel like they're trying something like different stuff with this, which I don't think was, you know, maybe I'm completely off base and they've done this before I'm just not thinking of it, but I don't know, baby, why I first turn on the show and like that gets me kind of no vibes, you know, I don't quite see it because, um, New Japan,
- 1:05:15[UNKNOWN]: still has very professional setups.
- 1:05:19[UNKNOWN]: A lot of what I think of when I think of like why not look so good?
- 1:05:22[UNKNOWN]: A lot of it really is just the cameras.
- 1:05:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:05:26[UNKNOWN]: And how fucking nice they look in 4K.
- 1:05:32[UNKNOWN]: New Japan world, I don't think can do 4K yet.
- 1:05:35[UNKNOWN]: Hopefully they will get to that point.
- 1:05:37[UNKNOWN]: But uh...
- 1:05:39[UNKNOWN]: It just can't, they're not anywhere near being able to look as good as no, just yeah, it's going to need some investment in the platform.
- 1:05:45[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to go.
- 1:05:46[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to go back and look and see if I could see.
- 1:05:48[UNKNOWN]: Let's look last year and be food in two years ago.
- 1:05:52[UNKNOWN]: Power shop want to see if I could see what the fuck.
- 1:05:55[UNKNOWN]: Because then I'm just curious.
- 1:05:58[UNKNOWN]: Like what the staging look like, because that'd be comparing similar shows.
- 1:06:06[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 1:06:08[UNKNOWN]: First, the ton of homecoming last year.
- 1:06:13[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, the ton of homecoming show had much more of the standard New Japan entryway.
- 1:06:17[UNKNOWN]: We're like the little tiny, I'm trying to think I describe it, like the little tiny entrance with like the New Japan line curtain and like the very standard, like metal around it, it's just like very small.
- 1:06:31[UNKNOWN]: You got them saying?
- 1:06:33[UNKNOWN]: Like the much more standard due to hand entry.
- 1:06:35[UNKNOWN]: Why I'm looking back at Paris federal two years ago let me say Almost there just in case that was a geafood thing.
- 1:06:47[UNKNOWN]: Okay, so here's a that's a historic crossover.
- 1:06:49[UNKNOWN]: Remember that
- 1:06:50[UNKNOWN]: Okay, Indiana Reno, Osaka, Paris Travel 2 years ago, yeah, and that was, again, much former standard New Japan entrance by the way, that has a screen and it has like the landmark curtain and like a little iron around it, but nothing like this.
- 1:07:03[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, that's, that's why I'm saying like this reminds me much more of a Noah vibe of like, you know, like a,
- 1:07:10[UNKNOWN]: like a bigger, like it's a bigger staging and looks unique for a big show and you know it's it's bigger than they were doing, especially by the end of boosho.
- 1:07:18[UNKNOWN]: Like, I, earlier point for cyber aging, or for boosho, I mean, I think they might have been, when they were maybe spending one of my own production, they did stuff like this, but I don't think boosho had had in a while towards the end.
- 1:07:28[UNKNOWN]: So yeah.
- 1:07:30[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, so the opening match was Aaron Wolfe, Masterwapto, and Koukai, meaning Francesco Kira, Jacob Ossingong, and Zain J.
- 1:07:39[UNKNOWN]: We night Empire, Wolf B. J.
- 1:07:41[UNKNOWN]: A. Y.
- 1:07:41[UNKNOWN]: Five, December, and Armbar.
- 1:07:43[UNKNOWN]: Before I get anything here, did you watch the Super Junior Tag League?
- 1:07:47[UNKNOWN]: Not a minute of it.
- 1:07:48[UNKNOWN]: Have a tube.
- 1:07:48[UNKNOWN]: Me neither.
- 1:07:49[UNKNOWN]: Me neither.
- 1:07:50[UNKNOWN]: So, look out.
- 1:07:51[UNKNOWN]: Well, I did hear good things, at least from the
- 1:08:00[UNKNOWN]: In fact, I was even seeing, huh, I feel better about the junior division, which I bet is a sentiment that didn't last that long, but, hey.
- 1:08:12[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, so do you cook how used to be a masked man, or am I going crazy?
- 1:08:19[UNKNOWN]: I wouldn't know.
- 1:08:20[UNKNOWN]: I don't know enough about the Japanese Indies.
- 1:08:22[UNKNOWN]: When he came out, like, as a wrestler, like, he had not here as an unmasked wrestler.
- 1:08:26[UNKNOWN]: I was like, didn't you use to be masked?
- 1:08:29[UNKNOWN]: Was I confusing with somebody else?
- 1:08:30[UNKNOWN]: I guess I was, cause I'm looking at, yeah, I guess I'm looking at a thing from a year ago and he doesn't have a mask on here either.
- 1:08:35[UNKNOWN]: I didn't watch last year's former either, so like, I don't know.
- 1:08:38[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 1:08:39[UNKNOWN]: I don't know why I thought I was a masked man.
- 1:08:40[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, I thought this was a fast pace enjoyable opener.
- 1:08:44[UNKNOWN]: I always like the instant tap out as a finish.
- 1:08:48[UNKNOWN]: Wolf got this wolf got the judo takedown straight in our cross arm breaker and J.
- 1:08:52[UNKNOWN]: Just fucking tapped out immediately.
- 1:08:54[UNKNOWN]: Three at a quarter, good little opener.
- 1:08:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:08:56[UNKNOWN]: Also included a tease of Francesco Akira wanting to challenge Wolf for the never title.
- 1:09:06[UNKNOWN]: which I saw that and thought I don't want him to just wrestle only juniors even though that would probably be a good match.
- 1:09:13[UNKNOWN]: I'm a little relieved that that didn't go anywhere, but that doesn't mean it won't come up again.
- 1:09:20[UNKNOWN]: Then we had match number two, which was Mystico, Cushita, and Master Tori Yasuda, beating Teton, Gato, and Dakey, the guy I'm about on company.
- 1:09:31[UNKNOWN]: Cushita, submitting Gato in six, 40, with the hoverboard lock.
- 1:09:36[UNKNOWN]: Very, this one I thought was much more short, like it was actually longer than the other match, but much, very non-descript.
- 1:09:41[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, it was fine.
- 1:09:42[UNKNOWN]: It's like Domain 3.
- 1:09:43[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I just didn't end up on kind of notes out of this one.
- 1:09:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, extremely lucha into that match where everybody is in the rain in a hold and one of them taps out and that in some match, which is an Indian I actually really like.
- 1:09:58[UNKNOWN]: I'm kind of a sucker for that.
- 1:10:02[UNKNOWN]: Match number three.
- 1:10:03[UNKNOWN]: Oh, one more thing, by the way.
- 1:10:06[UNKNOWN]: Dikina guy coming out to that really cool Teton inspired mask.
- 1:10:11[UNKNOWN]: I can see why I was seeing a lot of praise for.
- 1:10:15[UNKNOWN]: Teton and Dikina guy as a tag team together, they had a really slick look.
- 1:10:22[UNKNOWN]: Uh, match number three, rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea rea re
- 1:10:44[UNKNOWN]: vanilla and chocolate ice cream.
- 1:10:46[UNKNOWN]: See, I never really thought of that a million years.
- 1:10:48[UNKNOWN]: So it's literally on the back of their pants, John.
- 1:10:53[UNKNOWN]: Clearly I wasn't paying very close attention to the war.
- 1:10:56[UNKNOWN]: You weren't looking at their butts?
- 1:10:58[UNKNOWN]: I guess not.
- 1:10:59[UNKNOWN]: I guess I like it.
- 1:11:01[UNKNOWN]: Um, yes, the, this, I'm not, like I said, I'm not sure if I've ever seen a swirl matchment like before this, like 99.99, 99, 99, 99% of wrestling fans, I don't watch our rage.
- 1:11:12[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, this was even more non-script than the previous 200 artifacts of my imping and just a completely average forgettable match.
- 1:11:19[UNKNOWN]: I was two and a half stars on it.
- 1:11:21[UNKNOWN]: The swirl would not make any big impression on me.
- 1:11:22[UNKNOWN]: That's for fucking sure.
- 1:11:25[UNKNOWN]: Uh, I mean, they didn't make a big impression on me, but I enjoyed it well enough.
- 1:11:30[UNKNOWN]: I had also heard good things about the swirl in junior tagline.
- 1:11:35[UNKNOWN]: So, especially Lee Johnson, who I thought looked really good here, with Blake Christian.
- 1:11:42[UNKNOWN]: So, Lee Johnson felt like the kind of guy who seemed to really appreciate just being able to wrestle in Japan and put in a work here.
- 1:11:58[UNKNOWN]: As a fair and balanced reviewer, I will say this was much better than his first problem.
- 1:12:05[UNKNOWN]: He did not, this first New Japan front line, I mean, the one in Corrican that I think was think you're on the episode when we buried it.
- 1:12:11[UNKNOWN]: Yes, we're buried.
- 1:12:12[UNKNOWN]: This time, this time he did not talk about fucking online, Japanese wrestling fan, I'm anything.
- 1:12:18[UNKNOWN]: He just fucking, he didn't do a two online promo.
- 1:12:21[UNKNOWN]: He just fucking talked about how he's for me, W, and he's going to be the New Japan guy because he's better, like it was much more standard things that you would want a guy to say, or for an international front line.
- 1:12:30[UNKNOWN]: So it was a,
- 1:12:31[UNKNOWN]: I don't think it was any kind of good promo.
- 1:12:34[UNKNOWN]: I still don't think he's a good promo in general, but it was not the two online bullshit I was first promo.
- 1:12:39[UNKNOWN]: So that was an improvement.
- 1:12:41[UNKNOWN]: Good job, Max.
- 1:12:42[UNKNOWN]: I know I'm sure he did get a can, listen to his podcast.
- 1:12:48[UNKNOWN]: Sure.
- 1:12:48[UNKNOWN]: I feel like you have to dig to give him any credit, though, I still don't feel good about this match.
- 1:12:54[UNKNOWN]: I mean, look, at least, like I said, the first promo would act of fucking nonsense and bullshit, and at least this time he didn't go get him to get him to a building full of dappiness or something bad to say, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop it, drop
- 1:13:18[UNKNOWN]: that he is not actually the AEW champion.
- 1:13:20[UNKNOWN]: Like maybe they figured that out when Osprey walked out with the championship belt, but it still feels like it has to be explained.
- 1:13:28[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it's very stupid.
- 1:13:31[UNKNOWN]: Orio is fine.
- 1:13:32[UNKNOWN]: Orio is fine and said also a bit of a material down which I sure hope he does, but I kind of doubt he will.
- 1:13:39[UNKNOWN]: Match number four, especially since I should say, since I'm gonna have stupid belt in the line, the stupid fake belt, that to me gives away that he's probably winning.
- 1:13:47[UNKNOWN]: Match number four, Yuri Mara, Toriano, we're just getting to Gucci and Kazuma Sumi, beating Renari to Shun's Skywalker, Doki, and Yoshinobu Kenomaru.
- 1:13:58[UNKNOWN]: Uya beat Kenomaru in 805, the Lion's Shiner.
- 1:14:01[UNKNOWN]: It was okay, just wasn't a lot to it, really.
- 1:14:04[UNKNOWN]: Of course, you really gained the pin here, made sense, and see it was going to challenge for the global title after the main event.
- 1:14:10[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, like two and three quarters, it was all right.
- 1:14:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, look, I know you're saying this is all right, this is all right, and I'm agreeing with you.
- 1:14:17[UNKNOWN]: I won't also emphasize, this was a very breezy watch.
- 1:14:20[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed pretty much all of the undercard and power struggle.
- 1:14:23[UNKNOWN]: Not a lot of it stood out to be clear, and I would watch other shows with better undercards later.
- 1:14:30[UNKNOWN]: But sometimes in undercard, it just needs to be the easy incline that gradually speeds up as we get closer and closer to the big matches.
- 1:14:40[UNKNOWN]: And this did that job.
- 1:14:46[UNKNOWN]: good place to put it here.
- 1:14:48[UNKNOWN]: Doesn't it feel like House of Tortures on is in a low tide right now?
- 1:14:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:14:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, they're they're not very successful.
- 1:14:56[UNKNOWN]: They're they have a prominent match at Russell kingdom.
- 1:15:02[UNKNOWN]: But I don't it doesn't feel like the faction is very successful right now.
- 1:15:11[UNKNOWN]: And
- 1:15:14[UNKNOWN]: I just wanted to call that out because people get really hung up, especially when the house of torture goes through periods of being extremely successful and being a huge threat.
- 1:15:26[UNKNOWN]: That it's all in a cycle and everyone is cycled up and everyone is cycled down.
- 1:15:32[UNKNOWN]: Right now, house of torture is cycled down.
- 1:15:35[UNKNOWN]: We'll talk more about this later.
- 1:15:40[UNKNOWN]: Uh, mash number five, yo, yo, and show to you know, beat show, Dictogo, and you to attack a Hashie, yo beat Dictogo in a six or the three Samson driver.
- 1:15:52[UNKNOWN]: So they have been doing a running bat where, um, you know, Dictogo, stole Yo's, uh, fucking, you knew.
- 1:15:59[UNKNOWN]: And I think it's called the, the leopard, the sub-bandomal, which is the same exact place I've best super junior by the way, but this time,
- 1:16:06[UNKNOWN]: The bit became like Hell and Yo walking out on each other's leeches as each other's immune and then on a recent show they, one of the, another recent show they're team over the young lion, they like drafted this young lion as their king and they were both, they both held him as their fucking immune and on this show, show their movie now came out until he's just from Yo and Yo, girl, what a fight.
- 1:16:32[UNKNOWN]: Like, what is going on here?
- 1:16:34[UNKNOWN]: Like, I knew the store backstory.
- 1:16:36[UNKNOWN]: First of all, did you know the backstory, because you didn't, didn't know the store.
- 1:16:39[UNKNOWN]: No, I did.
- 1:16:40[UNKNOWN]: Are you okay?
- 1:16:42[UNKNOWN]: Second of all, Chris Charlton.
- 1:16:44[UNKNOWN]: Like, first of all, show to the middle, look like you sound the time is life on all fours with two man holding influences.
- 1:16:50[UNKNOWN]: And Chris Charlton just comes out with a great one when he's like, show to, oh, he now looks like he's been in this position before.
- 1:16:56[UNKNOWN]: He's fucking like,
- 1:17:01[UNKNOWN]: He did look like that.
- 1:17:02[UNKNOWN]: He looked like a man who has been on all fours with another human being holding their leash.
- 1:17:08[UNKNOWN]: And if I know this was his first time, you know it's not gonna be his last time.
- 1:17:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:17:17[UNKNOWN]: Like, Shoda, if you want some recommendations, well, first of all, I shouldn't even assume it, maybe you want some men to do it.
- 1:17:22[UNKNOWN]: If you want, if you want recommendations for women, you can do the same thing, you know, in Tokyo, I can give you some.
- 1:17:30[UNKNOWN]: but if he's if something has awakened to you because you looked super excited.
- 1:17:34[UNKNOWN]: How did you see his commentary after the match?
- 1:17:39[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so he was like rolling around on all fours and things.
- 1:17:41[UNKNOWN]: He was having the time of his life.
- 1:17:44[UNKNOWN]: Which the voice resting discord was fucking tearing him a new one over this.
- 1:17:48[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:17:48[UNKNOWN]: And the fuck actually.
- 1:17:49[UNKNOWN]: And like they're like because I guess I get it right.
- 1:17:52[UNKNOWN]: It's like they don't like they really hate goofy stuff and this guy's supposed to be like a top guy on the other hand.
- 1:18:01[UNKNOWN]: I also think a lot of them are WWE brain poisoned because this is the kind of thing that would happen to someone that Vince McMahon hated and was assigned that they were never going to be relevant again.
- 1:18:13[UNKNOWN]: And that's not how New Japan is booked.
- 1:18:15[UNKNOWN]: That's not how these wrestlers be.
- 1:18:17[UNKNOWN]: Right, Kenny Omega, the man who was going to rain about the Tokyo dome and went on the main of the Tokyo and when he did this, once came out, a jazzman, the fucking princess from Disney costume.
- 1:18:28[UNKNOWN]: Because I want to know that, that's incredible.
- 1:18:31[UNKNOWN]: because he wanted to do that on a fucking show, and they were not in a serious main event program at the time, it was like Halloween, and he came out as Jasmine from fucking Princess Jasmine from Aladdin, because he felt like doing that.
- 1:18:42[UNKNOWN]: Because you're a new Japan, you can fucking, if you feel like getting on all fours, and pretending to be a stuff lion, and being walked out by two men, yes, you could do that New Japan, especially you're not in the main event program, no one's going to tell you not to do that.
- 1:18:55[UNKNOWN]: He's not in the main event program.
- 1:18:56[UNKNOWN]: It doesn't mean he's been cycled down right now.
- 1:19:00[UNKNOWN]: This is not indicative of anything about his future prospects.
- 1:19:05[UNKNOWN]: Other than probably doesn't have big plans at Russell Kingdom, but that's okay.
- 1:19:09[UNKNOWN]: That's just the cycle of how people are booked in New Japan.
- 1:19:13[UNKNOWN]: I feel people are why people are so hung up on this.
- 1:19:17[UNKNOWN]: Well, people are very over dramatic about like a lot of things like this, and it's just like, again, Kenny Omega once came out dressed as Princess Jasmine.
- 1:19:25[UNKNOWN]: Another time it came out dressed as a ghostbuster.
- 1:19:28[UNKNOWN]: Like, people, weird people can be weird, and you just have for us.
- 1:19:34[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 1:19:34[UNKNOWN]: God bless them for it.
- 1:19:36[UNKNOWN]: Unless we're talking about yo, yo, I actually do find kind of annoying with it.
- 1:19:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I don't need to do it all the time.
- 1:19:44[UNKNOWN]: Yo probably does do it too, man.
- 1:19:46[UNKNOWN]: Especially when he's supposed to be the fucking I WGBDRA champion and there's all that is a little off-putting I get it Yeah, it needs to be a spice not not the entire dish.
- 1:19:58[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 1:19:58[UNKNOWN]: I don't think showed Umen is not crawling all force for us to his career.
- 1:20:01[UNKNOWN]: No, it's like he was in an undercard tag And he did something and he's not a big strong right now He did something whack and it's not that big a deal.
- 1:20:08[UNKNOWN]: I think people fucking freaked out about it to a degree where I'm just like You know, it's a genre.
- 1:20:13[UNKNOWN]: It's just incredible that even when showed a is being psyched down
- 1:20:17[UNKNOWN]: He still has to be the main character of discourse in the discord.
- 1:20:22[UNKNOWN]: I don't get it.
- 1:20:23[UNKNOWN]: That's that on the door.
- 1:20:24[UNKNOWN]: I don't know either.
- 1:20:25[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what they want with him.
- 1:20:27[UNKNOWN]: It's like he's having a really good year in-ring.
- 1:20:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:20:30[UNKNOWN]: His booking has, his booking is not as bad as it looks because I, as we went over, I think.
- 1:20:36[UNKNOWN]: Well, I, well, I don't know.
- 1:20:37[UNKNOWN]: Why did the camp for us if I went over this?
- 1:20:38[UNKNOWN]: It's like, yeah, he was supposed to be in the G1 final.
- 1:20:41[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like that was supposed to be a big thing for the air.
- 1:20:42[UNKNOWN]: He's supposed to lose you one final.
- 1:20:44[UNKNOWN]: He was supposed to be in game already and didn't happen because he got a concussion.
- 1:20:47[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, that's not anyone's fault, but I get why they didn't want to rejigger the entire fucking year they hit and whatever they have planned going next year.
- 1:20:54[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, yes, he's supposed to lose, lose to game in each shit and I guess, you know, right now it doesn't look like anything being able to do a Russell came them.
- 1:21:02[UNKNOWN]: But again, he was supposed to be in G1 final.
- 1:21:04[UNKNOWN]: That's not nothing.
- 1:21:06[UNKNOWN]: And this, but they gave him a little bit from maybe being in a big match or personal kingdom, because he could still win tag league, not with you, yeah, presumably, but with somebody else, and it might still be a team to carry, we don't know the teams yet.
- 1:21:23[UNKNOWN]: No, I'm just speculating here.
- 1:21:26[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, who the fuck would it be, though?
- 1:21:30[UNKNOWN]: Oh, who's?
- 1:21:32[UNKNOWN]: Well, okay, my first thought actually was someone he definitely wouldn't win World Tag League with.
- 1:21:38[UNKNOWN]: Oh.
- 1:21:38[UNKNOWN]: Um, but what if he brought out Big Pimpin?
- 1:21:43[UNKNOWN]: I thought you were funny.
- 1:21:45[UNKNOWN]: All right.
- 1:21:46[UNKNOWN]: I was thinking to cast you know, but would they, would A.W.
- 1:21:48[UNKNOWN]: really let him work?
- 1:21:50[UNKNOWN]: Is that would be a fun tag team?
- 1:21:51[UNKNOWN]: I actually liked that a lot.
- 1:21:53[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, but would A.W.
- 1:21:55[UNKNOWN]: have to let him work more tagly, right?
- 1:22:03[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, uh, uh, as far as the actual match, this again, because I like, I like show me that one.
- 1:22:10[UNKNOWN]: I think he was really good.
- 1:22:12[UNKNOWN]: I mean, this is my thing on the card match for a while.
- 1:22:14[UNKNOWN]: Now, a lot of it was actually down the hill who worked a great deal with this match and really got the card going and he just looked right here as he almost always does and multi-man tags and drain date too.
- 1:22:22[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, fun match three and a quarter stars, uh, the best of these other card matches probably are at least the best in the open up for sure.
- 1:22:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:22:31[UNKNOWN]: Like half of this match was the baby faces just putting house of torture in their place too, right, which is fun to watch and they closed that storyline from Super Junior tag league that I didn't watch any of.
- 1:22:47[UNKNOWN]: I was so kind of satisfied because there's something so fun about watching Dicto go get out.
- 1:22:53[UNKNOWN]: He has that quality to him that evil had for instance, where
- 1:23:00[UNKNOWN]: Uh, he's a good wrestler in his own right, but he's so good when he is selling, oh, no, I have been completely owned and I'm so sad right now.
- 1:23:13[UNKNOWN]: Uh, but yeah, it was, uh, it was a pretty good match.
- 1:23:17[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed it.
- 1:23:18[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:23:19[UNKNOWN]: Again, I'm busy undercard.
- 1:23:21[UNKNOWN]: afterwards, he'll got his plushies back at the end too.
- 1:23:24[UNKNOWN]: Showers and tears over it, clutching like an empty cage on the outside.
- 1:23:28[UNKNOWN]: That was funny.
- 1:23:29[UNKNOWN]: And they also handcuffed it to the end after the match, which why not, I guess.
- 1:23:32[UNKNOWN]: But then, we got a message from a mysterious man and a hood, a video message from, okay, this is actually fucking funny.
- 1:23:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because you've had so many of these video messages for people like answering challenges.
- 1:23:46[UNKNOWN]: You know, obviously all these ADW people have been sending these videos nonstop.
- 1:23:52[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so you sure doesn't think it was to make it even more like like a parody that but it makes sense from show It's like shows like okay.
- 1:23:59[UNKNOWN]: I want to challenge you to your title and sending in a video is apparently the way to challenge For us and be them this year, so I never said that a fucking video.
- 1:24:07[UNKNOWN]: That was fucking funny.
- 1:24:09[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed that
- 1:24:10[UNKNOWN]: He also said if yo loses him he can never be in that ring again, and we'll be thrown out of New Japan for our sling, and he then reveals he's actually there he attacks yo from behind, but yo gives him a low blow, poses hot hot off and reveals that his in fact show.
- 1:24:25[UNKNOWN]: So yo very, very calmly was like, you know, if you have something to say to say to my face, that was also funny, but he accepted the challenge for don't the dome that said the condition isn't fair to his adding his own step.
- 1:24:35[UNKNOWN]: If show loses to yo, show will be thrown out of the house of torture and will have to go back to team with yo as a Pungi 3K.
- 1:24:43[UNKNOWN]: So there you go.
- 1:24:44[UNKNOWN]: Yo, where's your show?
- 1:24:45[UNKNOWN]: If yo wins, show has to leave the house or perform Pungi 3K.
- 1:24:49[UNKNOWN]: If show wins, yo has to leave New Japan for us.
- 1:24:52[UNKNOWN]: Dependent interesting stipulation.
- 1:24:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, at least guarantee some change in the junior division one more or the other.
- 1:24:58[UNKNOWN]: So we actually see what happens.
- 1:25:00[UNKNOWN]: I don't, I don't have a feel for which way to think.
- 1:25:02[UNKNOWN]: I would assume you was going to win and show us just finally escaping the house, which might not be around that much longer anyway, but yeah, I guess we'll say that.
- 1:25:11[UNKNOWN]: That's 100% my feeling too.
- 1:25:13[UNKNOWN]: I think if I can be, you know, we'll be double the D to you.
- 1:25:15[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, you know, that would say well, I was thinking to the last match that had a step of
- 1:25:23[UNKNOWN]: uh... someone wins in the other person has to leave it became pretty obvious uh... tam was basically retiring very quickly uh... because of the number of like singles matches with friends that she had to set up as part of that um... i would think that there'd be a similar thing with you uh... if that was remotely a possibility i i just don't see it happening yeah uh... yeah that that stipulation i think was a much needed spice to the match because just
- 1:25:52[UNKNOWN]: Yovers' show felt like a really obvious direction to go for Wrestle Kingdom.
- 1:26:00[UNKNOWN]: And I appreciated the step adding just a little more intrigue.
- 1:26:04[UNKNOWN]: I also thought, okay, this was a good moment for Yo in particular, and he kind of needed something like this because his reign has stunk so far.
- 1:26:14[UNKNOWN]: He looked like a badass, he looked in control in command, getting one over on show like that.
- 1:26:22[UNKNOWN]: It did a lot to get me back into a match that frankly my interest was at the floor, or maybe below it, if it would have been presented to me earlier.
- 1:26:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:26:37[UNKNOWN]: So what do you, so that's what you think, you think you have your winning too?
- 1:26:41[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I am very, very confident.
- 1:26:43[UNKNOWN]: It goes winning here, yeah.
- 1:26:47[UNKNOWN]: Uh, match number six, the really the start of like the business of the card here, uh, Schingo to Caggy and Jeff Cobb beat John Moxley and Willer Uta, Cobb pinned Uta and 14 out three at the tour of the islands.
- 1:26:59[UNKNOWN]: Um, it was interesting at the start of the show when they were going through the matches, the death riders still got the spooky evil announcer voice, you know, confirming their post-packed face turn, didn't carry over
- 1:27:16[UNKNOWN]: Um, I don't know, which again is a problem here where it's like skinny, tiny, willow Utah is very, is very hard to seriously as a heel fret, um, but he has a whole less beard.
- 1:27:26[UNKNOWN]: Did you see how big his beard is?
- 1:27:28[UNKNOWN]: I did see it appeared, um, you know, shingo got hit with a chair in the face from locked in the outside and sent it to the post.
- 1:27:35[UNKNOWN]: I guess got busted open, but it really wasn't much of a blade job at all, just like a trick a little blood really.
- 1:27:41[UNKNOWN]: First mocks slowly worked over a shingo, then cob tag in instead of a hot tag, then it was just mocks slowly working over him too, and this match is really boring me But things did finally pick up when shingo tagged back in, and he and mocks started going back and forth, which gave this match some much to eat excitement The crowd was very into it by that point too, and yeah, then cobbed up putting wheeler away with the tour of the islands Really good things to stretch, but it was so boring before that.
- 1:28:05[UNKNOWN]: I really can't go any higher than like three and a quarter overall, so you know
- 1:28:09[UNKNOWN]: pretty good little match I guess, but just the the first tab was just kind of boring.
- 1:28:13[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it was fun.
- 1:28:14[UNKNOWN]: It was probably also my least favorite of the undercard so far.
- 1:28:22[UNKNOWN]: But I weirdly enough the part I enjoyed the most was not Shingo Moxley, which is what the match is supposed to excite me for.
- 1:28:30[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed Cobb and Yuta a lot more.
- 1:28:35[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 1:28:35[UNKNOWN]: I just thought
- 1:28:38[UNKNOWN]: Um, I don't know why shingo and box somehow have anti crime chemistry, but I think they do.
- 1:28:50[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I'm just very, I don't, I'm not excited for that.
- 1:28:52[UNKNOWN]: I mean, you'll get to it, but they're promising another hardcore match, basically at the Tokyo.
- 1:28:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I don't know, not that excited for that.
- 1:29:02[UNKNOWN]: Um, afterwards, Schingo gave you to the Takagi style, death writer and grabbed it Mike and Challenge Mox, especially for one four.
- 1:29:10[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, not like I just said, not very excited, but yeah, if they have said, it's going to be a hardcore match to have some kind, right?
- 1:29:18[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I guess I think so.
- 1:29:20[UNKNOWN]: I think that's good.
- 1:29:23[UNKNOWN]: Maps number seven, IWGP, tag team titles, the team of Oscar and Utoe Ice, defeat Will Osprey and Calon Newman to make their first defense in 1818 by the Squallification.
- 1:29:35[UNKNOWN]: So Calon jumped Oscar during the middle of their signature pose, you know, where Utoe Ice is like running around it.
- 1:29:41[UNKNOWN]: They made the thing they made the fucking, uh, the, like, spitting figure about.
- 1:29:48[UNKNOWN]: Osprey was not happy about it, but basically went along with it.
- 1:29:51[UNKNOWN]: some good double-teaming by Austrian calms throughout the early part of the match.
- 1:29:54[UNKNOWN]: They work there's okay.
- 1:29:56[UNKNOWN]: It's an interesting way they chose to do it.
- 1:29:58[UNKNOWN]: Now, going in, I was really worried and this was going to be like, you know, an entire fucking match with candy cogs this bullshet and they really avoided doing that.
- 1:30:07[UNKNOWN]: Like they did a long time for a long time that's not actually a great pace.
- 1:30:11[UNKNOWN]: They just went out there and worked.
- 1:30:13[UNKNOWN]: After that little disagreement, they're very star of the match.
- 1:30:15[UNKNOWN]: Offering column, we're mostly on the same page and just trying to win the IVGB tag game titles.
- 1:30:19[UNKNOWN]: So they, you know, that this match could have been really annoying if they had done the KMAC coexist, like fucking story, ship the entire time.
- 1:30:26[UNKNOWN]: And to their credit, they did not do that.
- 1:30:28[UNKNOWN]: They just, for the most part, they just wrestle a really fun match.
- 1:30:33[UNKNOWN]: You know, obviously the storyline is not going to kick it eventually, but the fact that they didn't do 18 minutes that I appreciate it.
- 1:30:38[UNKNOWN]: Well, they did it into the match very well, I think.
- 1:30:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:30:42[UNKNOWN]: The way I put it, there's multiple times when it looks like Calum or Osprey would be set up to accidentally hit the other guy.
- 1:30:52[UNKNOWN]: And there's a moment like maybe they do, maybe they don't.
- 1:30:55[UNKNOWN]: But they don't like stop and everybody has to look at each other and slow quies.
- 1:31:00[UNKNOWN]: up after feelings at that particular moment.
- 1:31:03[UNKNOWN]: There's none of that.
- 1:31:04[UNKNOWN]: The match just keeps going.
- 1:31:06[UNKNOWN]: It's still an extremely American wrestling style.
- 1:31:11[UNKNOWN]: Can they co-exit?
- 1:31:12[UNKNOWN]: Can they co-exit match in my eyes?
- 1:31:15[UNKNOWN]: They just do a good job of making sure to talk and wrestling match.
- 1:31:18[UNKNOWN]: See, I'm going to disagree with you because I've had to sit through many of those matches.
- 1:31:22[UNKNOWN]: And I don't think this was at all.
- 1:31:24[UNKNOWN]: So, well, I guess what I'm saying is because they never
- 1:31:29[UNKNOWN]: they just kept going as a wrestling match, and also very important, KLB were also characters in this story too.
- 1:31:37[UNKNOWN]: It wasn't just the Osprey and Calum show.
- 1:31:40[UNKNOWN]: I agree.
- 1:31:41[UNKNOWN]: What I would say too though is I've seen so many, there was one with O'Cotton to Kesha, they doubt that you've not got long ago, and they were doing their fucking never-ending storyline one that's like one of these two people really hate jumping to break up.
- 1:31:53[UNKNOWN]: I think it might have been the show I was at,
- 1:31:56[UNKNOWN]: the full gear, which was one of the last full and every shows I watched, since then, was the full gear of 2025 last November.
- 1:32:02[UNKNOWN]: They was like a trio smash, or they were like openly hitting each other throughout the fucking match, like they would just turn and hit each other.
- 1:32:10[UNKNOWN]: And then the match would just continue.
- 1:32:11[UNKNOWN]: It's like, why would you do- they were challenging for like the fucking- they're just saying things, they were shouting at the AW trio's titles, I think.
- 1:32:18[UNKNOWN]: So it's like you're challenging for a title battle, but you can't get a long enough to like stop hitting each other.
- 1:32:23[UNKNOWN]: And they didn't even break up essentially after that.
- 1:32:25[UNKNOWN]: So like how did you do a whole match where your team age, but you're also hitting each other?
- 1:32:30[UNKNOWN]: And then just fucking continue to be in the same unit after that.
- 1:32:33[UNKNOWN]: Makes no sense.
- 1:32:34[UNKNOWN]: They did not do that at all here.
- 1:32:35[UNKNOWN]: Like this is a lot more logical.
- 1:32:38[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 1:32:38[UNKNOWN]: That is the depths of back and reach in American wrestling.
- 1:32:41[UNKNOWN]: Here, they had their moments where like, you know, you can tell they're not like a war or a machine, but they did not do a bunch of fucking bullshit like that.
- 1:32:49[UNKNOWN]: For the most part, they just wrestle a really good match.
- 1:32:51[UNKNOWN]: So, um,
- 1:32:54[UNKNOWN]: I asked for you some of my videos to hit a stiles class in Oscar after rolling through a cradle that was awesome, especially given the size difference.
- 1:32:59[UNKNOWN]: It looked insane.
- 1:33:01[UNKNOWN]: Then, Oscar and Calum did this little like hand slapping against the ropes that was kind of cute.
- 1:33:05[UNKNOWN]: But like, Calum offered it first, not fake hesitatives.
- 1:33:07[UNKNOWN]: Like, hey, okay, brother, you know, brothers, let's, you know, we're on the same page here.
- 1:33:11[UNKNOWN]: And then Oscar fought back and had Oscar and Calum in a double chokehold.
- 1:33:15[UNKNOWN]: So, Calum kicked Oscar in the rough to bump him and then low load Oscar to big booze.
- 1:33:20[UNKNOWN]: Zane's of the chair of the ring, asked for a step down to keep pounds of picking it up and then asked for a form Zane off the apron so this is when they did have some dissension.
- 1:33:28[UNKNOWN]: When he turned back around, Kalen tried to swing the chair at him, but asked for a caught him and elbowed him down, so the things did right down between them at that point.
- 1:33:36[UNKNOWN]: But asked for a detritic at them back on the same page.
- 1:33:39[UNKNOWN]: Kalen kind of pie faced him with a new to ice cup back in and knocked them both, knocked him aside to go after Osprey again because again, he wanted to fight out for it and care about the bullshadies.
- 1:33:47[UNKNOWN]: He wanted to fight with Osprey.
- 1:33:49[UNKNOWN]: Um, and then there was back to being non-self action again, you know, they did a little fear and then just kept going, but then calms something they came in and just hit Oscar in the back of the chair in the back with a chair of the DQ, which is a shitty finish.
- 1:34:01[UNKNOWN]: It was, it did make me wonder, I remember I talked to my friend friend about he was like, I was wanting who the fuck was going to get pinned in this.
- 1:34:06[UNKNOWN]: And I guess the answer was nobody, but um, you know, even with the shitty finish, I still thought we'll be got was awesome enough to go four stars.
- 1:34:13[UNKNOWN]: But it was trending even higher, not the DQ.
- 1:34:15[UNKNOWN]: And, you know, the four stars, some of that, again, is just my relief in that they kept, you know, an 18-minute match.
- 1:34:22[UNKNOWN]: They really kept, like, the fucking, there's a universe for the storyline over ones this match.
- 1:34:28[UNKNOWN]: And thankfully, that's not the universe we lived in.
- 1:34:30[UNKNOWN]: Like, they mostly, you know, I was excited to see these four wrestlers have the match and, you know, I hope we get to have a great match and they got to have a great match.
- 1:34:37[UNKNOWN]: You know, despite the fact they had to do all the story stuff too.
- 1:34:40[UNKNOWN]: So, yeah.
- 1:34:45[UNKNOWN]: uh... story heavy match in a way that we don't normally see in new japan uh... but it still fits i think with the overall product so i i didn't mind in a little i have to be the most about the ending was i feel like we've seen even more grejas crap in the ring then hitting someone with the chair and not indignity cue uh... they should have gone further should have brought out the samurai sword and tried to cut someone and that
- 1:35:15[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that was true.
- 1:35:20[UNKNOWN]: This after the fuck, oh, I'm glad to say that's another thing.
- 1:35:23[UNKNOWN]: I'm glad the samurai forward's nowhere to be found.
- 1:35:25[UNKNOWN]: Thank God.
- 1:35:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, thank goodness.
- 1:35:27[UNKNOWN]: After even when will Osprey had it?
- 1:35:30[UNKNOWN]: I know.
- 1:35:32[UNKNOWN]: Afterwards, Osprey and Calam started fighting afterward.
- 1:35:36[UNKNOWN]: Before the other, I'm sorry to say that for advice everybody.
- 1:35:39[UNKNOWN]: I guess I'm very tired.
- 1:35:41[UNKNOWN]: The other empire members got in between them and in Calam finally got them bike and challenged Osprey for the dome.
- 1:35:47[UNKNOWN]: I, again, I liked the way that was handled.
- 1:35:50[UNKNOWN]: There was no corny turn.
- 1:35:52[UNKNOWN]: There was no, this was my master plan
- 1:35:56[UNKNOWN]: They just finally couldn't get along any more in column, fucking just challenged into a match of us, okay, and them.
- 1:36:00[UNKNOWN]: So again, much, this could have gone much worse as far as like how they got there.
- 1:36:04[UNKNOWN]: So after the camp for wrestling thing where I wasn't happy with the angle or the swordship was really corny and you know, I thought the way they set this tag to them actually stupid, this was much better.
- 1:36:13[UNKNOWN]: This was like, okay, now this was good.
- 1:36:15[UNKNOWN]: I was into how they chose to set this up.
- 1:36:17[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, this is a pattern for the rest of the show.
- 1:36:22[UNKNOWN]: But if you,
- 1:36:23[UNKNOWN]: we're following the storyline so far in New Japan, all of the developments that happened in this show were pretty much what you would expect.
- 1:36:32[UNKNOWN]: We probably predicted everything that happened in this show at King of Pro Wrestling when we did that review.
- 1:36:39[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I wouldn't say that in cyber cells in the back too hard.
- 1:36:41[UNKNOWN]: I think it was all pretty obvious.
- 1:36:43[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, well, my point is it's still important that they tell that story.
- 1:36:47[UNKNOWN]: Even if it's obvious, it's still important that you follow through.
- 1:36:51[UNKNOWN]: partly because it makes the actual surprises actually surprising if you stick to a pattern and people know what to expect.
- 1:36:59[UNKNOWN]: But also how people win.
- 1:37:03[UNKNOWN]: And so on is important.
- 1:37:04[UNKNOWN]: We'll talk about that probably more when we get to the three-way number one container match.
- 1:37:10[UNKNOWN]: I feel like sometimes AWS fans, in particular, when they dip into New Japan, they've
- 1:37:19[UNKNOWN]: that doesn't feel like it needs to explain itself beyond, you know who these two people are, you know what'll be a good match, get excited.
- 1:37:28[UNKNOWN]: I appreciate that new Japan still make sure to walk us through exactly how things happen to get to whatever the destination is.
- 1:37:43[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so I think they got there in a good way.
- 1:37:46[UNKNOWN]: I would agree.
- 1:37:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:37:49[UNKNOWN]: The next match was that three way.
- 1:37:50[UNKNOWN]: It was Kenny Omega penning Yoda Suji in 1250 with the woman dangel, and also Bolton Oleg was in the match too.
- 1:37:57[UNKNOWN]: Kenny interestingly also did get the evil amounts of voice in the pre-show.
- 1:38:01[UNKNOWN]: And he is, he is a heal here as he was for a lot of his new Japan run.
- 1:38:04[UNKNOWN]: And he jumped Suji before the bell.
- 1:38:06[UNKNOWN]: All he was posing for the title about McCornor, and then posing for the title himself.
- 1:38:10[UNKNOWN]: And then from there, it went straight to all action.
- 1:38:13[UNKNOWN]: Thankfully,
- 1:38:14[UNKNOWN]: So the thing I almost can never stand about three ways, especially again, so that you see the more often America than in Japan, they did not do a lot of the one guy fucking go stage in a coma for an hour or the other two fight bullshet.
- 1:38:27[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:38:27[UNKNOWN]: Eventually both in gate vans to floor for a bit, but that's to be affected with refusing a Tokyo domain, right?
- 1:38:32[UNKNOWN]: And took a while back to happen.
- 1:38:35[UNKNOWN]: Well, it also happened in a way that was, well, sorry.
- 1:38:38[UNKNOWN]: You're not talking about it, keep going.
- 1:38:41[UNKNOWN]: Why didn't you say I didn't write down the note actually of how he got bumped so how did he get bumped?
- 1:38:46[UNKNOWN]: See I wasn't talking about how he got bumped I was I thought you were talking about how he wasn't part of the he didn't factor into the pen at the end at all.
- 1:38:55[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, this was a way before that.
- 1:38:57[UNKNOWN]: And this is way before that, you're right.
- 1:38:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah, he was out for a bet and he makes this amazing reemergence where he suddenly appears on nowhere to grab Kenny from behind when Kenny was on the second row of pursuit on his shoulders, like going for a one-wing danger off of there and just fucking Germans him down to drop both of them and Kenny especially came down straight on his head, like straight down his body was vertical and it completely insane spot.
- 1:39:23[UNKNOWN]: Uh, Suji ended up getting bolted in a gene blaster, ready to get Kenny up on the shoulders for the kamikaze, another inventive, cool looking spot, and I love the way that the super casual way that Kenny, so Kenny's like, I'm the ground to that, also after the after gene blaster, and he doesn't make this big, you know, over the top, saying of like breaking up the pen, after, uh, Suji tried to pin bolt in.
- 1:39:44[UNKNOWN]: He just kind of kicks his leg out, like almost like a fucking, you know, like someone would do very naturally or like a dog would do or something and just kick some off to get him, oh, there's a very, very casual, very cool looking.
- 1:39:56[UNKNOWN]: Very natural looking, I should say.
- 1:39:58[UNKNOWN]: Kenny really bumped huge.
- 1:40:00[UNKNOWN]: I thought and sold for Bolton a lot.
- 1:40:03[UNKNOWN]: He took a verdict, you know, the F5 room as well and just barely kicked out.
- 1:40:06[UNKNOWN]: I thought he really made Bolton look good.
- 1:40:08[UNKNOWN]: You could tell and pop.
- 1:40:09[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure Kate asked for the match to go this way, right?
- 1:40:12[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure this, you know, I'm sure you first of all, I'm sure Kate's not doing anything.
- 1:40:15[UNKNOWN]: I just want to do.
- 1:40:16[UNKNOWN]: But, you know, he seemed like he was excited to work with Bolton with Bolton and Suji.
- 1:40:22[UNKNOWN]: and Suji, yes.
- 1:40:23[UNKNOWN]: And again, that paying Suji with a woman named Joel to go to the dome, just as I figured he would, I never bought the idea that Bolton was here to get penned.
- 1:40:31[UNKNOWN]: This was just Bolton was here to give Bolton rub, first of all, and also because it would make sense because Bolton had a pin over Suji and was going to be the one to try to challenge him,
- 1:40:43[UNKNOWN]: And you know, I do not think they're going to pin balls.
- 1:40:45[UNKNOWN]: And I think I thought they're going to pin Suji and then have Suji get his pin back at the dome and then bolt on Clyde be the first counter do we get since both of the stars of the win over Suji.
- 1:40:53[UNKNOWN]: So I think that's all very logical.
- 1:40:55[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, this was an awesome match.
- 1:40:56[UNKNOWN]: Maybe even a little better than I expected.
- 1:40:58[UNKNOWN]: Given three ways have a tendency to annoy me, but it was just a, you know, I love the choice to do it as a 13 minute sprint of a match, which was all action.
- 1:41:06[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, four and a quarter that I was about
- 1:41:13[UNKNOWN]: one part of it that I think made it work in a way that some other, let's say, main event three ways we've seen recently, did not, was that it was deeply uncooperative.
- 1:41:26[UNKNOWN]: I actually have no idea what you're just referring to.
- 1:41:27[UNKNOWN]: What am I talking about?
- 1:41:28[UNKNOWN]: A lot of course.
- 1:41:30[UNKNOWN]: Oh, I already, I've already completely wiped that out of my brain.
- 1:41:35[UNKNOWN]: Amazing.
- 1:41:38[UNKNOWN]: It was deeply uncooperative.
- 1:41:40[UNKNOWN]: There was one moment where Kenny tried to get
- 1:41:44[UNKNOWN]: to team up with him against Suji, and Bolton didn't understand what Kenny was asking for.
- 1:41:50[UNKNOWN]: And I feel like that's a key part of his matches.
- 1:41:52[UNKNOWN]: I don't think Bolton will like as ever seen a three way in his life.
- 1:41:55[UNKNOWN]: He had no idea what was going on.
- 1:41:58[UNKNOWN]: He handled it the way that I think a wrestler naturally would, and that we as viewers should be conditioned to expect it to go, which is nobody is helping anybody.
- 1:42:11[UNKNOWN]: When you see somebody in a hold or somebody's being set up for a move and you're not doing anything that's an opportunity for you You should be knocked out cold on the floor and that's the only time you're not interacting with the rest of the match and as a result There's so many cool moments in here where you feel like you're seeing the match go one way, but then the other guy interferes in such a way that
- 1:42:40[UNKNOWN]: This is a match where it absolutely earns how short it is because it also feels so impactful from so early on.
- 1:42:49[UNKNOWN]: They don't do a lot of routine three-way bullshit to pad time here.
- 1:42:56[UNKNOWN]: They very quickly get to the big moves.
- 1:42:59[UNKNOWN]: My favorite was, where was it?
- 1:43:09[UNKNOWN]: And then Suji interrupts him with the gene blaster.
- 1:43:12[UNKNOWN]: That was so bad.
- 1:43:16[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, now I mentioned that spot.
- 1:43:18[UNKNOWN]: That was great.
- 1:43:19[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, incredible stuff.
- 1:43:21[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed the hell out of this match.
- 1:43:22[UNKNOWN]: And again, the obvious outcome, but it matters.
- 1:43:26[UNKNOWN]: Like, how can he got the result with the one we named, he applied it to both of them also, which I thought was a nice touch that Bolton was, of course, not dead with what is canonically one of the most powerful moves in
- 1:43:39[UNKNOWN]: We all understand this and I just I just got a lot out of the smash.
- 1:43:46[UNKNOWN]: I am not one of those people who's high on the idea of a W crossing over for Russell kingdom in and of itself being exciting, but Kenny Omega is just going the extra mile here and getting me excited for that main event in particular.
- 1:44:02[UNKNOWN]: So I'm really into that part so far.
- 1:44:07[UNKNOWN]: Uh, the semi-man event.
- 1:44:09[UNKNOWN]: Oh, sorry, before you move on to that, I did want to talk a little bit about what Kenny said afterwards, too.
- 1:44:14[UNKNOWN]: Oh, okay, go ahead.
- 1:44:15[UNKNOWN]: Because not just, you didn't just say, okay, we're going to meet at the dome for this match now for the title for the IWGP belt.
- 1:44:23[UNKNOWN]: He also mentioned, hey, new Japan, I can come here a lot more often.
- 1:44:28[UNKNOWN]: I would like to be booked more often.
- 1:44:31[UNKNOWN]: Um, it felt like he was basically saying,
- 1:44:34[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to be a lot more present as both a challenger and a champion, which I feel I'm hoping is that means he's going to be at the two road attack.
- 1:44:43[UNKNOWN]: You don't care.
- 1:44:44[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to 100%.
- 1:44:46[UNKNOWN]: I think that would do so much to make the main event feel even more real and more important.
- 1:44:52[UNKNOWN]: I really think the key witness of John Moxley's run.
- 1:44:57[UNKNOWN]: was that he could only show up for the big matches.
- 1:45:00[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, it's a Sunday and a Monday, the 20th and 21st.
- 1:45:03[UNKNOWN]: So even a few for some reason, it has been used on a WTV, which I don't think he has been since he lost the title of the Osprey.
- 1:45:11[UNKNOWN]: Like he should be able to do what I would think.
- 1:45:13[UNKNOWN]: But yeah.
- 1:45:15[UNKNOWN]: And again, we talked about this last time after Kina for a wrestling, a lot of this is also to build up excitement for a W zone dome show, right?
- 1:45:25[UNKNOWN]: that makes it easier for Tony Kahn to let Kinega work in Japan like he clearly wants to when he could justify it as this guy's building interest for our big dome show in the summer.
- 1:45:38[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, you know, they, I just check my way.
- 1:45:42[UNKNOWN]: He hasn't worked, the only show he's worked is the pack tribute show since he lost the title to us by all and, but,
- 1:45:49[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I guess we'll say, I would love I hope he works at Clark and that'd be awesome one of the works those two Clark and I guess we'll say it would also keep feel more credible as a challenge to if he's working those corkens because he's shown he can show for that.
- 1:46:04[UNKNOWN]: It would he would feel like, oh, he can show up for a tour for a new beginning if he's the champion too.
- 1:46:11[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 1:46:11[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:46:11[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:46:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:46:13[UNKNOWN]: Then we had the same amount of amount of effort for the super junior tag league final, Taiji Shimoori and Robbie X, beat Robbie Eagles and co-state Brigida, one issue more European Brigida 1108 with a school by roll-up.
- 1:46:24[UNKNOWN]: Now,
- 1:46:25[UNKNOWN]: It was a little hard to care about best because given that A, again, as I said earlier, I did not watch the tournament.
- 1:46:31[UNKNOWN]: And B, by the time I watched this, you know, after living out last time, because the last thing I've seen was that three-way match, that was like the one thing I really wanted to say.
- 1:46:42[UNKNOWN]: So I made sure I watched that before, you know, the Luxembourg started pouring in yesterday.
- 1:46:47[UNKNOWN]: And then I did not expect to be so transfixed by them.
- 1:46:52[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if you were paying attention.
- 1:46:53[UNKNOWN]: When the polls close to six o'clock, people don't know anything about the elections, I guess, if you're overseas or you're, um, you know, you're just America's pay attention.
- 1:47:00[UNKNOWN]: The polls in different states close by, you know, by the hour.
- 1:47:05[UNKNOWN]: And six o'clock Eastern is when polls close in like two states, Kentucky and Indiana.
- 1:47:11[UNKNOWN]: I believe it's the only two.
- 1:47:13[UNKNOWN]: And there's basically like two house districts that are really relevant, usually because they're both like, I wouldn't even call either one of them swing districts, but like they're both like swing me enough that like, you know, if the demo is doing even like remotely good enough, the demo is like even close, you know, they're probably going to have a pretty good night and if they're really far behind, right away, they're able to call these districts both these six
- 1:47:42[UNKNOWN]: Well obviously it's easy to overindex that right which people it uses but it's usually the case though it's usually the case it's normally just it's important to just caveat that i think what really happening is we're also star for information immediately what tags going on and this happens to be the first bit of news we get the first more soul
- 1:48:03[UNKNOWN]: Right, so that but then that comes in.
- 1:48:04[UNKNOWN]: So I'm thinking I'll watch to start of this election coverage and I'll go back to this show But that comes in and I think it was the Indiana one that came in first and like the results come in and it's like 50% of the vote in The Democrats up like 16 points or something.
- 1:48:18[UNKNOWN]: I was like what?
- 1:48:18[UNKNOWN]: I was like trying to like I remember thinking like the first I don't know what the exact margin is.
- 1:48:23[UNKNOWN]: I'm getting it was something crazy like that
- 1:48:25[UNKNOWN]: And again, if they had 50% of the vote is in, you know, this is early vote with the Democrat tends to do better anyway, and the Democrats down three points, or whatever down four points, that would have been a big deal.
- 1:48:37[UNKNOWN]: I don't even like, oh, they're doing really well.
- 1:48:39[UNKNOWN]: And they were up, like, you would, they were up like some absurd amount.
- 1:48:42[UNKNOWN]: And I'm pretty sure at the end of the day they won this district by quite a lot.
- 1:48:48[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, this was like the first sign that something, I remember seeing like a bunch of tweets and been like, the tweets were basically like, um, how the fuck is this real?
- 1:49:00[UNKNOWN]: Like there were a lot of people on Twitter who were like, you know, did they, is it some misprint?
- 1:49:05[UNKNOWN]: Because that people were sent to people, then like that they were actually up by this much.
- 1:49:10[UNKNOWN]: But,
- 1:49:11[UNKNOWN]: You know, so that was like the start of the night when I'm just like, okay, I can't, I don't feel, I don't want to switch back because I'm just like, I need to see what the fuck is going on here and I'm just like, I'm trying to find this to, they just move the map on this screen.
- 1:49:23[UNKNOWN]: That's why I'm trying to find it again.
- 1:49:25[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it's like, so that was like the start of the night and I never end up getting back to this match.
- 1:49:29[UNKNOWN]: So by the time, yeah, it's in the I just fixed five, which by the end of it ended up being a 4.1 for the Democrat, but again, this is like a, you know, this is a district, let me see what Trump won it by in 2024 if they have that.
- 1:49:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it's shifted from 2024.
- 1:49:49[UNKNOWN]: It's shifted more like something like 20 points towards the Democrat.
- 1:49:54[UNKNOWN]: So like, I guess they lost it by 16 last time.
- 1:49:57[UNKNOWN]: Just fucking crazy.
- 1:49:58[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it's like every, every county shifted 17 points, 24 points, 24 points, 24 points, 17 points, 18 points.
- 1:50:05[UNKNOWN]: So again, if she had lost this district, who have the Democrat running here, had lost this district by like five points or something that would have been a sign of a really great night probably.
- 1:50:15[UNKNOWN]: And instead, the district shifted 20 points.
- 1:50:19[UNKNOWN]: And like they want it instead.
- 1:50:20[UNKNOWN]: Just fucking crazy.
- 1:50:23[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, so that was like the start of why get out.
- 1:50:24[UNKNOWN]: This is clearly going to be something is happening.
- 1:50:28[UNKNOWN]: But I never made a back-to-scmatch.
- 1:50:29[UNKNOWN]: By the time I made a back-to-scmatch, it was like,
- 1:50:33[UNKNOWN]: I knew that the three-way was happening for the junior tag titles to Tokyo down.
- 1:50:38[UNKNOWN]: I knew both these teams were involved.
- 1:50:40[UNKNOWN]: So I didn't even know who won the match, but like, I already knew that it didn't matter who won the match.
- 1:50:44[UNKNOWN]: Because once again, New Japan's doing that annoying fucking thing they do, where the winner of this tournament doesn't fucking matter, because both the teams are in the fucking junior tag title match to the dome anyway.
- 1:50:52[UNKNOWN]: So, and you can argue, as I've even tried to argue this, like, you know, still matters when it's a junior tagly, which is sort of your, I guess, but it doesn't even feel like it really matters that much when you're not, when you haven't watched the tournament all, you know?
- 1:51:05[UNKNOWN]: Like, I really didn't care when the tournament at this point, and it didn't even mean anything.
- 1:51:08[UNKNOWN]: We're took the Tokyo Dome.
- 1:51:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, this was effectively a preview match for the Tokyo Dome.
- 1:51:14[UNKNOWN]: With that said, I still thought it was very good.
- 1:51:16[UNKNOWN]: I still went three and three quarters.
- 1:51:19[UNKNOWN]: It just couldn't quite get the notebook level for me.
- 1:51:21[UNKNOWN]: But again, that could also just be because I didn't really care about the results.
- 1:51:26[UNKNOWN]: So that's always going to be an issue.
- 1:51:30[UNKNOWN]: When you're trying to watch him actually, you don't really care about the results.
- 1:51:32[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, three three quarters.
- 1:51:33[UNKNOWN]: Very good match, too.
- 1:51:34[UNKNOWN]: Oh, this was a great firework match.
- 1:51:37[UNKNOWN]: I probably would have gone at least four.
- 1:51:39[UNKNOWN]: If I bothered keeping track of stars,
- 1:51:43[UNKNOWN]: perhaps it's a factor, but God, these two teams just work so well together, and I have such a strong appreciation, especially of Ishimori and Robby X, especially, who I think has just done so much this year to integrate himself into the junior division and be one of the brightest stars in it, right?
- 1:52:03[UNKNOWN]: He's one of the bright spots in a really bad division right now, and he just makes for exciting matches and meshes so well with Ishimori,
- 1:52:12[UNKNOWN]: who I also thought got one of the sickest flash pins that I've seen in quite a while.
- 1:52:22[UNKNOWN]: It was really, really cool.
- 1:52:24[UNKNOWN]: I can't even quite describe it, but he like locked in, Fuji's shoulders as part of it in a way that didn't quite make sense when you look at
- 1:52:39[UNKNOWN]: I am looking forward to this match.
- 1:52:40[UNKNOWN]: I feel like as much as we say, yeah, they do it all the time.
- 1:52:44[UNKNOWN]: They do it all the time for a reason.
- 1:52:46[UNKNOWN]: They start with these multi-man junior tag title matches for a reason.
- 1:52:49[UNKNOWN]: They're a great fireworks show to start off Russell Kingdom.
- 1:52:52[UNKNOWN]: So I don't resent it at all.
- 1:52:57[UNKNOWN]: uh main event also the third the rear by the way is these two teams plus Mr. Cohen and Axe because I'll just for us to be up our long time so hey this is a co Tokyo dome entrance for a title match that's pretty exciting to yes sure
- 1:53:13[UNKNOWN]: The main event, IWGP Global Highway Title, Gabe Kid defeats Tai Chi in 30 minutes in one second and what the death dog driver to make his third defense.
- 1:53:24[UNKNOWN]: So Gabe comes out here throwing the belt around some more coming out.
- 1:53:27[UNKNOWN]: It gets some mild booze, but there's a lot of things that the Gabe Kid character that I think have become very quickly, very tired.
- 1:53:34[UNKNOWN]: So I'm in the belt set as a big one.
- 1:53:36[UNKNOWN]: And it's like,
- 1:53:38[UNKNOWN]: This belt doesn't have enough of a sense of history food to throw it around and it really mean anything and we plus we've already seen another guy throw around a white belt And we saw the belt they just replaced the belt actually lost and I think it did so it and if anything What you can always tell me is they're gonna replace this belt pretty soon.
- 1:53:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, or retire it, right?
- 1:53:58[UNKNOWN]: Like they told Gabe do whatever you want with the belt.
- 1:54:00[UNKNOWN]: We're not using it that much longer.
- 1:54:02[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so I'm just like I don't know So I did this it's not a story on it really works
- 1:54:07[UNKNOWN]: Um, Gabe jumped out of the bell, he charged over the larry and then got mad at Red Shoes from that county form and the bell did when the before the bell even rang, which is a little stupid, and it's like, what do you have any count for the bell even rang yet?
- 1:54:20[UNKNOWN]: Uh, he cuts a typical annoying but thankfully short promo and did get the crowd fan for Tai Chi.
- 1:54:27[UNKNOWN]: Uh, the bell rang gave me a really bad job.
- 1:54:29[UNKNOWN]: Suplex and for a two count.
- 1:54:31[UNKNOWN]: Uh, one from that, just some outside of the ring brawling.
- 1:54:33[UNKNOWN]: Now, you can say that gave has good intensity with the outside of the ring brawling.
- 1:54:38[UNKNOWN]: I would agree.
- 1:54:39[UNKNOWN]: He still does it too much.
- 1:54:41[UNKNOWN]: But thankfully, he didn't, this probably was the least.
- 1:54:45[UNKNOWN]: They've done it, and then he gave KidMatch during this run.
- 1:54:47[UNKNOWN]: Like, he really didn't last that long.
- 1:54:49[UNKNOWN]: I was getting ready to be mad in the main.
- 1:54:51[UNKNOWN]: I got back on the ring pretty quickly.
- 1:54:53[UNKNOWN]: Um, Gabe's heat period, though, is another issue of that, but he's been his manager in this run.
- 1:54:58[UNKNOWN]: Like his heat period is always just kind of whatever.
- 1:55:00[UNKNOWN]: They just go way too long and they're always just kind of boring.
- 1:55:03[UNKNOWN]: But thankfully, when Gabe starts doing the Kawada kicks is an insult that finally wakes Tai Chi up, as if Jeff's keeps moving towards Gabe and literally quarters him with this awesome look on his face.
- 1:55:14[UNKNOWN]: And he finally unloads on him with an elbow.
- 1:55:17[UNKNOWN]: He kicks Gaelic laps in the corner.
- 1:55:20[UNKNOWN]: At first, I think he kicked the corner pad and slapped his thigh, but gave solitude so well that he just kicked him in the fucking face, so good work right out.
- 1:55:33[UNKNOWN]: I mean, look like he just kicked him in the face, so you know, good work by both guys there.
- 1:55:38[UNKNOWN]: Uh, but then Taiji did kick and stomped a flock out of gave a bit after that, very boulder Ibuji asked, you pushed, uh, right, you decide in the process, uh, gave step to side to avoid a super kick and stuff, Taiji with this huge snap powder ever, but Taiji no sold it and that just destroying gave within enormous exponder just for the
- 1:56:03[UNKNOWN]: Tai Chi ended up setting up a cable at ringside, but as often seems to happen with these things, he ends up getting piled up through it off the apron and a crazy bump.
- 1:56:11[UNKNOWN]: Like the guy, I'm not going crazy, right?
- 1:56:13[UNKNOWN]: Feel like the guy who sets up the table and you can't always go through it.
- 1:56:16[UNKNOWN]: I think that just happens a lot in hardcore matches in general in the in Japan at least, where if you're the guy who introduces a weapon, you better be ready to be the one to take the weapon.
- 1:56:28[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 1:56:31[UNKNOWN]: Tai Chi, though, was able, okay, I mean, before that, we get back at the ring and Gabe is, again, doing the fucking min match promo.
- 1:56:40[UNKNOWN]: I don't need you, look, I understand you're a bad man.
- 1:56:43[UNKNOWN]: I don't need you to yell at Tai Chi about how you wanted this.
- 1:56:47[UNKNOWN]: It's always bad, at best, it's a waste of time at worst it actually takes me out of a master million joy.
- 1:56:53[UNKNOWN]: So please stop doing it.
- 1:56:55[UNKNOWN]: Uh, Tai Chi, though, drop some of an awesome dangerous backdrop, like right on his head.
- 1:57:00[UNKNOWN]: Just have to the 15 minute call when he kind of like countergave coming off the rope.
- 1:57:04[UNKNOWN]: So that rebound layer he does, um, and we get the normest burning layer of Tai Chi and Tai Chi does the jumbo pose, the whole crowd yells for it.
- 1:57:13[UNKNOWN]: Um, where I'm at here is, especially when we get into this part of the match, Tai Chi's performance has been incredible.
- 1:57:20[UNKNOWN]: while Gave has been pretty difficult for him in this run.
- 1:57:23[UNKNOWN]: Great when he just wrestles, but the other staff has been annoying and not in a Buddhist heel type of way and I wish I was a watchy that said, way.
- 1:57:33[UNKNOWN]: Just at the 20 minute call that we got a gun so bomb that was fucking awesome and they even did it naturally where Gabe kept blocking a power bomb attempt and Taiji and was trying to like reverse it in mid air so that was all the Taiji could do is just rotten straight down so that was very close to the original which was a botch instead of doing us like this over how much so that was awesome.
- 1:57:51[UNKNOWN]: Um, and the crowds just going absolutely insane here.
- 1:57:54[UNKNOWN]: There's a enormous let's go Tai Chi chant.
- 1:57:56[UNKNOWN]: They created some very hard elbows to the face.
- 1:57:59[UNKNOWN]: Uh, they just kept reading the big bombs in the Larry.
- 1:58:01[UNKNOWN]: It's exactly the kind of awesome clothes extra I should expect.
- 1:58:04[UNKNOWN]: Tai Chi eight, two straight pile drivers again, but somehow kicked out anyway.
- 1:58:08[UNKNOWN]: That was just for the 25-minute call.
- 1:58:10[UNKNOWN]: We got a close near fall off of that sit down pin that Ocada was winning away for a little while.
- 1:58:15[UNKNOWN]: The one he pinged Christian with it, Dominion 2019 with me in the building.
- 1:58:19[UNKNOWN]: that got a 2.999 count and then gave random right into a huge superkick from Tai Chi which had Hiroshima coming on glued.
- 1:58:29[UNKNOWN]: I don't like after that point when Gives started doing as like he was out and being dead weight.
- 1:58:34[UNKNOWN]: I kind of hate that thought because first of all, it kills him under the match and it just been building and it's always sequence to me that it's like if a guy really is going to keep pretending to be dead weight because I assume part of it's that they're playing dead, but like red shoes should you start counting or he should start checking his arm or something and they never do.
- 1:58:51[UNKNOWN]: I'm like, that this should be like, like you shouldn't just like keep telling to you.
- 1:58:54[UNKNOWN]: Oh, no, you can't pick them up.
- 1:58:56[UNKNOWN]: You should like really stop the match that.
- 1:58:58[UNKNOWN]: Like this should be a stoppage.
- 1:59:00[UNKNOWN]: Um, they end up on the top right after that.
- 1:59:03[UNKNOWN]: Gay pits are getting a slower off of there.
- 1:59:05[UNKNOWN]: That looked great.
- 1:59:06[UNKNOWN]: Then he ran back and forth and hit a kind of weak looking area.
- 1:59:10[UNKNOWN]: Followed by the pilot driver, but takes you kicked out again, gave punch him in the face.
- 1:59:14[UNKNOWN]: And then did his little fucking death dog driver thing.
- 1:59:17[UNKNOWN]: And that was the pen.
- 1:59:18[UNKNOWN]: Amazing performers by Tai Chi, awesome match overall.
- 1:59:24[UNKNOWN]: The game is in this run, just put a ceiling on these matches during it for me.
- 1:59:28[UNKNOWN]: So it gets four and a quarter again.
- 1:59:29[UNKNOWN]: I just can't go, I just don't enjoy these enough to go higher because it's game is just fucking, I don't know.
- 1:59:35[UNKNOWN]: I just find this, I find the current version is character just very annoying.
- 1:59:38[UNKNOWN]: So.
- 1:59:38[UNKNOWN]: Again, if I was tracking stars, I probably would have gotten them with slightly higher maybe four and a half.
- 1:59:46[UNKNOWN]: This reminded me of the Starlight Kid and Susan Suzuki match that we would have watched earlier this week because a lot of this match is very deliberately pit placed bombs being thrown over and over and over again.
- 2:00:04[UNKNOWN]: I didn't even mind and in fact I kind of liked the beginning where Tai Chi is just selling everything that Gabe is doing.
- 2:00:12[UNKNOWN]: and you're waiting and waiting and waiting for Tai Chi to get into the match, and once he finally does, it's satisfying.
- 2:00:23[UNKNOWN]: I'm with you about the gameisms, but I feel like in terms of the overall booking direction, what they're doing with game now is working for me.
- 2:00:32[UNKNOWN]: As a way, I'm going to give you a specialy, a credible villain for him to be the hero against, and it has
- 2:00:43[UNKNOWN]: gave, stomping all over the legacy of Tanahashi, it's taking him, just beating and humiliating, showed to me no and pie-cheap, loved faces, right?
- 2:00:56[UNKNOWN]: To finally give you, yeah, what's going to be a big rub?
- 2:00:59[UNKNOWN]: I know it's boiling what you want to talk about, that happened immediately after the match.
- 2:01:03[UNKNOWN]: But it feels integral to my enjoyment of the match that,
- 2:01:08[UNKNOWN]: Part of it is also I expected that you'd lose and probably lose in a way that would be slightly humiliating.
- 2:01:16[UNKNOWN]: It feels like I'm seeing the complete vision here and it's working for me.
- 2:01:20[UNKNOWN]: Helps that the match was completely badass too.
- 2:01:24[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it was definitely badass match.
- 2:01:27[UNKNOWN]: Afterwards, a game made Tana come in the ring and put the global belt round his ways, then clocked him at the face and piled her over him to enormous booze, which I thought Charlton and Walker did a really good job selling on commentary.
- 2:01:39[UNKNOWN]: Also like the Chris Charlton, I don't know if he's a listener, if you are Chris allow, he made a lot of this bookpoints during this match that I've been baking, where it's like, you know, he keeps coming here.
- 2:01:49[UNKNOWN]: Why is he keep coming here?
- 2:01:51[UNKNOWN]: If he's going to, you know, if he hates it so much, why is he just stop coming?
- 2:01:55[UNKNOWN]: Which like I'm glad he said that because it does feel like that it's a question that should be asked and he turned it around and made it been like well, a game is still coming here for a reason then, but you know, it is a good point.
- 2:02:04[UNKNOWN]: Like it's something somebody should say, but it's like, yeah, if you hate someone should stop going, you know.
- 2:02:10[UNKNOWN]: you're right now to that in double leg, you did a double leg on them before beating Gabe off and the crowd was training for him and he gave a short refired up promo, not the best promo in the world, but you know, on the U.S. scale, I thought was pretty decent, considering he's not always a guy at the most charisma.
- 2:02:27[UNKNOWN]: But then Moxie was in the ring behind him.
- 2:02:29[UNKNOWN]: He gave him the death writer, so the two of them could that beat you up.
- 2:02:33[UNKNOWN]: She ain't going right now, but also got double team and got dropped with the death writer.
- 2:02:37[UNKNOWN]: Then we had a pow drive from Gabe to you, yeah.
- 2:02:39[UNKNOWN]: Crowd was cheering doesn't go home, and they tossed ton of back on the ring.
- 2:02:43[UNKNOWN]: And Moxie's basically said, you know, if you want respect for the death writers, if they're early, and we'll see you January 4th, the Tokyo Dome, and then Gabe
- 2:02:56[UNKNOWN]: The only thing that this, I really hated, why in God's fucking name, would you fire off streamers when they just beat out the president of the company?
- 2:03:06[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 2:03:06[UNKNOWN]: And that made no fucking sense.
- 2:03:09[UNKNOWN]: Like someone really needs to think about that and be like, no, we should not fire streamers for them when they just beat up the president of the company and the legend and like, let's everybody's lighting.
- 2:03:16[UNKNOWN]: It's like now, it's not the time to fire.
- 2:03:19[UNKNOWN]: I appreciate the consistency.
- 2:03:21[UNKNOWN]: I'll put it that way.
- 2:03:22[UNKNOWN]: Even though, yeah, man, we're like generally like jarring.
- 2:03:26[UNKNOWN]: That over there, like celebrate this asshole?
- 2:03:28[UNKNOWN]: No.
- 2:03:29[UNKNOWN]: Well, the favorite man was like, damn it.
- 2:03:31[UNKNOWN]: I've prepared these flavors.
- 2:03:32[UNKNOWN]: I'm fired in a matter of what.
- 2:03:33[UNKNOWN]: Hell yeah.
- 2:03:34[UNKNOWN]: You know what?
- 2:03:35[UNKNOWN]: He's just doing his job.
- 2:03:37[UNKNOWN]: He's just doing his job.
- 2:03:39[UNKNOWN]: That's kind of stupid.
- 2:03:42[UNKNOWN]: And so yeah, it's not this show, you know, had some great wrestling on it.
- 2:03:46[UNKNOWN]: It's I definitely enjoyed it with the most part.
- 2:03:49[UNKNOWN]: The booking was a little like this is obvious where we were going.
- 2:03:53[UNKNOWN]: So it just kind of felt like, you know, it felt like a necessary, but not super thrilling step on the road that that makes sense.
- 2:04:01[UNKNOWN]: Like, I kind of knew how it was all gonna play out.
- 2:04:03[UNKNOWN]: So I just lost it play out, you know?
- 2:04:05[UNKNOWN]: But the wrestling was good.
- 2:04:06[UNKNOWN]: So I think the wrestling wasn't good.
- 2:04:08[UNKNOWN]: I definitely enjoyed the show.
- 2:04:09[UNKNOWN]: I just would not call this like, like if somebody missed this show, I would not be like, you have to see this.
- 2:04:14[UNKNOWN]: Because you could probably close your eyes and picture exactly what happened.
- 2:04:16[UNKNOWN]: So, you know?
- 2:04:18[UNKNOWN]: Like I said though, I appreciate that they take the step in the first place.
- 2:04:22[UNKNOWN]: I feel like the inclination of other wrestling companies is to try to be unpredictable.
- 2:04:30[UNKNOWN]: to the point that they become non-sensical.
- 2:04:33[UNKNOWN]: This, they follow through exactly the way that you're expecting if you're paying attention.
- 2:04:38[UNKNOWN]: And that's in its own wake very good.
- 2:04:42[UNKNOWN]: I really enjoyed this show.
- 2:04:44[UNKNOWN]: It was not my favorite of three really strong big shows that we watched this week, but it was no slouch.
- 2:04:53[UNKNOWN]: Um, the, what's coming up in New Japan?
- 2:04:56[UNKNOWN]: Obviously, we, we know most of us look into matches now.
- 2:04:58[UNKNOWN]: We, we already talked about pretty much all of them.
- 2:05:00[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it's, uh, the big ones are all the New Japan RdW matches, which are the same ones we talked about during the camp for wrestling review, Shingo, Moxley, or you are M.J.F.
- 2:05:10[UNKNOWN]: Osprey, Calum, you get gave the global title and Suji, Kenny for the out of G.P.
- 2:05:16[UNKNOWN]: Heavyweight title.
- 2:05:17[UNKNOWN]: Plus now, we also know Yovers is show with all the ZX recipients and the three-way junior tag title match.
- 2:05:24[UNKNOWN]: So that's already seven matches.
- 2:05:26[UNKNOWN]: That's the vast majority of the card.
- 2:05:28[UNKNOWN]: I assume we'll get like a Rambo or something, whether it's for the number six fans or for the something else who knows.
- 2:05:36[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if they'll move the IWGP tag title match from with the winners the tag week to New Year's Dash again later in the last year.
- 2:05:42[UNKNOWN]: Actually, now I think about the kind of the well since the knockout where there's have both belts
- 2:05:47[UNKNOWN]: So they would only be able to defend one of them and they'll say maybe I think part of the reason why they did that, though, is because Tana's retirement was going to go so long.
- 2:05:59[UNKNOWN]: They needed to cut a match that they would normally have from the card.
- 2:06:05[UNKNOWN]: I guess we'll see.
- 2:06:08[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, there's your wrestling kingdom.
- 2:06:09[UNKNOWN]: Well, obviously, we'll get more matches, but that's really the heart of the card.
- 2:06:12[UNKNOWN]: So, what's coming up in the meantime of a New Japan, before the World Tag League starts, if we don't know the teams yet, they're mostly off the next few weeks, but we have the Luchakiendem show is coming up on Monday, November 16th, so a little under two weeks from now on, I'll read a Mexican.
- 2:06:28[UNKNOWN]: The tickets are not selling well at all, by the way.
- 2:06:30[UNKNOWN]: A friend of mine who's going sent me like images of it, and it's like, yeah, the tickets are not moving well at all for this show.
- 2:06:38[UNKNOWN]: It has a mystical and optimal Guerrero versus Sugey and Herogi Goda main event.
- 2:06:43[UNKNOWN]: Zach Saber Jr.'s challenging head to share off of the I-Fusy-ML at Wartigrad title.
- 2:06:48[UNKNOWN]: Konosuke Takashi, Konosuke Takashi is going to face Bobber Arrow, uh, Cavendario from CMLL.
- 2:06:54[UNKNOWN]: Oh, that's a lot of really cool match.
- 2:06:57[UNKNOWN]: uh... silver on our juniors in a face show that you may know sounds pretty cool uh... they're going to teetown and tide you so we're going to try to get this strong tight I was back you come on how they whore in the air or uh... fucking fucking funny do it uh... do it i hope that i hope they lose i hope they lose these ghosts stay and see them all for whatever that's much fun you know me and then they bring them back during uh...
- 2:07:26[UNKNOWN]: Um, intentionally the knowledge that this used to be a new Japan belt is lost over time and it becomes like a trivia question to decade from now.
- 2:07:35[UNKNOWN]: Uh, showing Doki are going to face Guerrero Maya Jr. and Zell.
- 2:07:39[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:07:40[UNKNOWN]: And again, I don't have any of these people saying to everybody.
- 2:07:41[UNKNOWN]: I'm sorry.
- 2:07:43[UNKNOWN]: Um, sure he's going to defend the idea of each woman's title against Kira, uh, that she lose the belt since obviously New Japan started not only by the same company anymore, is this how they get the belt offer?
- 2:07:53[UNKNOWN]: Uh, how do you lose your CMLL wrestler?
- 2:07:55[UNKNOWN]: It, I don't know.
- 2:07:56[UNKNOWN]: Do you have a sense of Kira is a highly booked, um, booked Luchadora?
- 2:08:02[UNKNOWN]: you're asking me the wrong person I guess wrong person I don't fair the attention to literally right I'm sorry I mean I the only luch of people I know it's like people who shop in luch of pain and even then you know
- 2:08:17[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it looks like a decent little car, but apparently it's not selling at all.
- 2:08:21[UNKNOWN]: So again, I'm sure a luch of first can get explained to you why that is.
- 2:08:24[UNKNOWN]: But all I ever hear is like a how mystic code shows all of sell 70,000 tickets a month or whatever, so I don't know why that one's not selling, even made a van.
- 2:08:34[UNKNOWN]: After that, we have Tana Hashie Jam 2, later that week on Thursday, November 19th.
- 2:08:41[UNKNOWN]: That show is, again, not going to be a New Japan world, so you're going to have to find it like in some illicit area.
- 2:08:47[UNKNOWN]: If you have to see, soon skywalker, defend the New Japan world, TV telegrams, Toriado, that I know you're going to want to jump down that right away.
- 2:08:55[UNKNOWN]: Oh, you don't even have to pay any money for that, though.
- 2:08:57[UNKNOWN]: They're going to put it on all social media feeds for free.
- 2:09:00[UNKNOWN]: Oh, that's true.
- 2:09:01[UNKNOWN]: That's true.
- 2:09:02[UNKNOWN]: Okay, so that was a question for what is it that we're minded walker during the match.
- 2:09:07[UNKNOWN]: If you want to see Axe Wings, New Japan debut, I guess you're only now.
- 2:09:12[UNKNOWN]: You have to go find the enlisted screen.
- 2:09:16[UNKNOWN]: Um, because that is also going to happen.
- 2:09:17[UNKNOWN]: Plus, if you have tips to me, Fuji Nami, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you,
- 2:09:39[UNKNOWN]: Uh, the other match, this is actually pretty cool.
- 2:09:41[UNKNOWN]: Zack Saber Jr. Co-sapurgida and DDT's Takeshima Sada against Rehoyawa, Hartley Jackson, and Noah's Kaito Kiyomiya.
- 2:09:51[UNKNOWN]: That's a cool little one.
- 2:09:52[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, missed a show, though.
- 2:09:54[UNKNOWN]: What am I, mess?
- 2:09:56[UNKNOWN]: Oh, yes.
- 2:09:57[UNKNOWN]: Invitational.
- 2:10:00[UNKNOWN]: What the hell is that?
- 2:10:00[UNKNOWN]: Let's just be show.
- 2:10:02[UNKNOWN]: That is a paper to you on New Japan World.
- 2:10:08[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I don't think there's a card for this.
- 2:10:10[UNKNOWN]: Maybe it's a mystery card show.
- 2:10:12[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 2:10:14[UNKNOWN]: It's a little Monday, geez.
- 2:10:17[UNKNOWN]: Oh, he can have fun with that because I don't even know what's on it.
- 2:10:19[UNKNOWN]: Bound for unbound.
- 2:10:21[UNKNOWN]: I first want this had to match us.
- 2:10:22[UNKNOWN]: Yes, it does.
- 2:10:23[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 2:10:24[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:10:24[UNKNOWN]: Drill them alone.
- 2:10:25[UNKNOWN]: He versus Deky to Guy.
- 2:10:27[UNKNOWN]: They don't have this on the card of the Japanese or English site, but I think it's confirmed.
- 2:10:31[UNKNOWN]: It's going to be Schinger to Caggy and Nazi
- 2:10:37[UNKNOWN]: Oh, is that the main event?
- 2:10:39[UNKNOWN]: That's one of the batch of the main event.
- 2:10:41[UNKNOWN]: OK.
- 2:10:42[UNKNOWN]: But according to this website, that's not even announced for the show.
- 2:10:45[UNKNOWN]: I'm pretty sure it is.
- 2:10:46[UNKNOWN]: Because Cobbs showed up at a fucking, uh, said that I grow a show.
- 2:10:50[UNKNOWN]: I think to recruit here ought to be as partner.
- 2:10:52[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:10:52[UNKNOWN]: So.
- 2:10:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:10:54[UNKNOWN]: So I think that's, that's it.
- 2:10:55[UNKNOWN]: Those two are facing point shingo.
- 2:10:57[UNKNOWN]: That sounds like a really cool match.
- 2:10:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:11:00[UNKNOWN]: And then I don't know if we have anything else that's just not on the website yet.
- 2:11:03[UNKNOWN]: But yeah.
- 2:11:06[UNKNOWN]: a gun.
- 2:11:06[UNKNOWN]: It's bound for unbound, Friday, November 20th.
- 2:11:09[UNKNOWN]: Um, usually these, these produce shows you so much better than actual, like regular New Japan shows kind of funny.
- 2:11:16[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:11:17[UNKNOWN]: And it has a crowd who's already super invested in everyone in the faction or the wrestler.
- 2:11:21[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:11:21[UNKNOWN]: That.
- 2:11:22[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:11:25[UNKNOWN]: I'll mention this now.
- 2:11:26[UNKNOWN]: I'm probably going to record something with Joel about that on the
- 2:11:36[UNKNOWN]: Okay, see if I see if I get invited if I actually wash it this time.
- 2:11:43[UNKNOWN]: I got invited.
- 2:11:44[UNKNOWN]: I wasn't going to mention that patrolled it, tell me just before we recorded that you were supposed to be there for the Tai Chi School Pro Wrestling show.
- 2:11:51[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because I just, I don't know, I just never had time to watch it.
- 2:11:55[UNKNOWN]: And, you know, I don't know.
- 2:11:58[UNKNOWN]: I just, sorry.
- 2:11:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, what are you going to do, right?
- 2:12:06[UNKNOWN]: What are you going to do?
- 2:12:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, there you go, there's your new Japan stuff that's coming up.
- 2:12:11[UNKNOWN]: And again, I will not be, I don't think we're coming any of that on this podcast to be honest though.
- 2:12:16[UNKNOWN]: But I think I'll give you a little tee up on it.
- 2:12:19[UNKNOWN]: All right, let's go over to stargum, the world-runder ring.
- 2:12:23[UNKNOWN]: There was a cork in that we didn't cover on my first episode, but it's kind of really old news now, it was Tuesday, October 27.
- 2:12:30[UNKNOWN]: It was a good little show.
- 2:12:33[UNKNOWN]: They really fold me with that main event, which is a really good main event.
- 2:12:36[UNKNOWN]: It was a
- 2:12:38[UNKNOWN]: First of all, the number was really bad.
- 2:12:39[UNKNOWN]: I only did nine or 18 fans, which, you know, bad number, but easily, it was a Tuesday.
- 2:12:46[UNKNOWN]: It was there.
- 2:12:47[UNKNOWN]: There's second of three cork in that month with a major show two days later.
- 2:12:51[UNKNOWN]: I always think it was going to be the one that finally got back into three digits.
- 2:12:55[UNKNOWN]: So it did.
- 2:12:56[UNKNOWN]: Oh, are you going to do it?
- 2:12:57[UNKNOWN]: I think is that even a bad number, though, considering all the constraints?
- 2:13:01[UNKNOWN]: No, not really.
- 2:13:02[UNKNOWN]: And on top of all that, I didn't realize this, John,
- 2:13:08[UNKNOWN]: In cork and haul, the new Japan is this year.
- 2:13:11[UNKNOWN]: Yes, I do.
- 2:13:12[UNKNOWN]: Third, in cork and haul shows in total.
- 2:13:14[UNKNOWN]: So they're even despite the fact that they have, they've run so many shows and I really don't run that when you big matches there anymore.
- 2:13:21[UNKNOWN]: They still have, they still have an average, they still have a third highest average attendance of cork and a 1,275.
- 2:13:26[UNKNOWN]: And that's for 26 shows.
- 2:13:30[UNKNOWN]: So they're head of New Japan, which, again, for New Japan, I'm not including the fantastic amania or any other collaboration shows, strictly just promotion shows.
- 2:13:38[UNKNOWN]: But New Japan's average is 1,221 over 24 shows.
- 2:13:42[UNKNOWN]: So the only generation to head of stardom are Noah, who's barely ahead.
- 2:13:46[UNKNOWN]: There are 1,294, 17 shows, and they run plenty of big matches.
- 2:13:50[UNKNOWN]: Much bigger matches at Cork and then Starron does these days.
- 2:13:53[UNKNOWN]: And all Japan, who's at 1,340, they're the Kings of Cork in this year.
- 2:13:57[UNKNOWN]: but they've only run 11 shows and they run all the big matches of course in practically.
- 2:14:01[UNKNOWN]: I mean, you know, almost like a lot of their big matches that leads to our core account.
- 2:14:05[UNKNOWN]: So because they run so few or other bigger buildings, but like you can pretty much always get it.
- 2:14:10[UNKNOWN]: You almost always get some major title match there, either triple crown or tag titles.
- 2:14:13[UNKNOWN]: So.
- 2:14:15[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so in a way, it's just a lot more impressive.
- 2:14:19[UNKNOWN]: There's an article I shared with you that was a translation of a shoe pro article.
- 2:14:25[UNKNOWN]: from a weekly column about women's per wrestling.
- 2:14:27[UNKNOWN]: It mentioned a couple of nuggets that I think are worth about start of attendance that I think are worth mentioning.
- 2:14:33[UNKNOWN]: The first is that Taro Cotta is apparently just extremely honest in a way that even modern wrestling bookers aren't about the attendance that it shows.
- 2:14:45[UNKNOWN]: It turns out that no vacancy and super no vacancy and so on or more terms of art than a precise term.
- 2:14:52[UNKNOWN]: And he is a lot more strict than other bookers when he shares whether or not the show was a sell out So he's holding them to higher standards in one in one way, right then some other bookers if we could name Our at least when it comes to sharing what the attendance of the show was But the second is that the guy kind of made an argument that this is very different from earlier Joe.
- 2:15:17[UNKNOWN]: She explosions a popularity because it's not an explosion
- 2:15:21[UNKNOWN]: This has been sustained growth for an extended period for start-up in particular, but also for other Yoshi companies, right?
- 2:15:29[UNKNOWN]: In a way, if you're pulling in over a thousand people consistently for weeknight shows in Kirk and Hall, that's more impressive than once a month or once every other month packing them all to the rafters with title matches on the card as well.
- 2:15:48[UNKNOWN]: Stardom is basically treating cork and haul as house shows and it still really works for them.
- 2:15:53[UNKNOWN]: They're still pulling on really entertaining work in the process and the fans are still really engaged with it.
- 2:15:57[UNKNOWN]: They're very loud in the show.
- 2:16:02[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, it's, you know, they were, they were in everything and the people who were here, like you said, They really fooled me at the span of that.
- 2:16:10[UNKNOWN]: So, So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so,
- 2:16:29[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, really good main event.
- 2:16:30[UNKNOWN]: I was like three and three quarters on it, you know.
- 2:16:33[UNKNOWN]: And Tore had ensues you that the Tore was like an X, by the way, I forgot to mention that.
- 2:16:39[UNKNOWN]: And like the way she came out here, I'm like almost getting pushed out from behind by Susie was very funny.
- 2:16:45[UNKNOWN]: And they did like, they did like their odd couple routine at the end with Tore, like having no enthusiasm with again super funny.
- 2:16:51[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, which really enjoyable main event.
- 2:16:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I concur.
- 2:16:58[UNKNOWN]: The match of the night for me, that was the semi-main event, which was Ron and Yagami, and as you say now, we're going to the 50-minute draw for the future starting title.
- 2:17:07[UNKNOWN]: Alley, Ron is a length defense, because she got all those extra ones with Jews in America.
- 2:17:13[UNKNOWN]: This one, this is the best I've ever seen for Rina.
- 2:17:17[UNKNOWN]: I think so.
- 2:17:19[UNKNOWN]: Let me look this up.
- 2:17:19[UNKNOWN]: I remember what last time I checked.
- 2:17:21[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, last time I checked, she was getting really close to the record.
- 2:17:24[UNKNOWN]: Okay, title history.
- 2:17:29[UNKNOWN]: Defenses.
- 2:17:32[UNKNOWN]: No, 12.
- 2:17:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, she's only one behind.
- 2:17:36[UNKNOWN]: Wow, okay.
- 2:17:37[UNKNOWN]: So the Rina did that in 512 days.
- 2:17:42[UNKNOWN]: which is nuts, um, yeah.
- 2:17:45[UNKNOWN]: Sorry, passed it on, which was the, Tanama's 10.
- 2:17:49[UNKNOWN]: So.
- 2:17:51[UNKNOWN]: With a cure of challenging.
- 2:17:53[UNKNOWN]: unless you wanted to go more into detail in the match, I'll say.
- 2:17:55[UNKNOWN]: Well, I just want to say the match was awesome.
- 2:17:57[UNKNOWN]: It was awesome.
- 2:17:58[UNKNOWN]: Definitely not to mess if you skip the show.
- 2:18:00[UNKNOWN]: And Azusa, I thought it's so super well throughout this match.
- 2:18:03[UNKNOWN]: You know, Ron, I was like going to town on her, a kick to the arm, especially.
- 2:18:06[UNKNOWN]: And I thought, I thought there's a decent chance that there's going to win here as that.
- 2:18:10[UNKNOWN]: I was in the spoiled part of the because again that she was closing on this record.
- 2:18:15[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, she almost felly back and got the win.
- 2:18:17[UNKNOWN]: She caught Ron on the on and go a just for the 50 minutes
- 2:18:24[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I think I was higher and I've been most people to be honest when I saw that I did really love the match.
- 2:18:29[UNKNOWN]: I wonder if people were a little down on it because it didn't in a draw, but I thought they earned the draw.
- 2:18:36[UNKNOWN]: They, they still worked.
- 2:18:37[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, some people are like, like some people are so anti-draw that I'm just like, I don't really get it, but I don't know, like sometimes they just feel like they never want to draw.
- 2:18:50[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I, I'm definitely not in that camp.
- 2:18:53[UNKNOWN]: I don't mind one occasionally.
- 2:18:54[UNKNOWN]: I felt like they earned it here.
- 2:18:56[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I can't, I can't wait to the next challenger.
- 2:19:00[UNKNOWN]: I don't think it's, it's a come from yet when or where.
- 2:19:05[UNKNOWN]: I think they need to go through the goddess tag league together first.
- 2:19:08[UNKNOWN]: Okay, okay, okay.
- 2:19:09[UNKNOWN]: Since they are tagging together.
- 2:19:12[UNKNOWN]: Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, okay.
- 2:19:14[UNKNOWN]: So it'll probably be maybe the finals and she's your welcome on the 29th or maybe even in the next month.
- 2:19:19[UNKNOWN]: I guess we'll say.
- 2:19:20[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:19:21[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I do think so one.
- 2:19:23[UNKNOWN]: I do think I'm here.
- 2:19:23[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I mean, I think she's ready to win.
- 2:19:25[UNKNOWN]: I think she's ready to move up to being future champion.
- 2:19:28[UNKNOWN]: And I think though, I think she won't win.
- 2:19:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:19:32[UNKNOWN]: Great.
- 2:19:34[UNKNOWN]: Anything else of the shows, nothing on the show
- 2:19:41[UNKNOWN]: No, this was just, how do I put this?
- 2:19:47[UNKNOWN]: The less two cork and halls that they had earlier this month, especially the first one, I thought was definitely missing some energy that they needed.
- 2:19:57[UNKNOWN]: It felt like they recaptured it for this show.
- 2:20:03[UNKNOWN]: And so while none of the rest of the undercard stands out in my memory and frankly, I don't remember any of it at all.
- 2:20:12[UNKNOWN]: mostly I mostly remember the feeling of oh I'm really vibing with this right now I'm getting increasingly excited for Crem's a nightmare this go home show is working for me they they've got the mojo again it barely left we had a short period John where you and I were like uh is starting to slump in a little bit yeah I think the answer is pretty definitively no
- 2:20:35[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, I like the Crimson Nightmare show a lot.
- 2:20:38[UNKNOWN]: Especially after all the fucking shit it got online, leaning up to it.
- 2:20:42[UNKNOWN]: I mean, this show was, I thought this show was a lot of fun.
- 2:20:44[UNKNOWN]: Show was terrific.
- 2:20:45[UNKNOWN]: And we're not going to talk about it, but the first side of the goddess tournament was great as well.
- 2:20:49[UNKNOWN]: I didn't want to see that side.
- 2:20:50[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to try to go back and watch at least that, because I heard it was really good.
- 2:20:55[UNKNOWN]: Crimson Nightmare, this has been Thursday, October 29th in Ebor,
- 2:21:04[UNKNOWN]: Last year, I did 2,467 in the same building.
- 2:21:08[UNKNOWN]: Very stupid people would tell you, this is a huge drop, huge down forward to some people.
- 2:21:14[UNKNOWN]: Last year was a holiday.
- 2:21:16[UNKNOWN]: This year was a random Thursday.
- 2:21:18[UNKNOWN]: And, you know, Tara has said one of his big goals is to run more, more paid reviews, one more big shows on weekdays and said just weekends and holidays, which is how StarMdoys done in the past.
- 2:21:29[UNKNOWN]: And given that given that context, which also explains why there's a little bit of a shorter card than some other big start-up behaviors.
- 2:21:36[UNKNOWN]: They also charge you less money for it, though.
- 2:21:37[UNKNOWN]: I'm pretty sure wasn't like, let's, huh, wasn't like a cheaper paper here.
- 2:21:41[UNKNOWN]: I think it was.
- 2:21:42[UNKNOWN]: Oh, the paper, the standard price.
- 2:21:45[UNKNOWN]: I thought you meant the tickets with the door.
- 2:21:47[UNKNOWN]: Oh, sure.
- 2:21:48[UNKNOWN]: I thought, okay, I could have sworn I was like, said, you cheaper, maybe I'm making that up.
- 2:21:53[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, even if I did, and I'm not making that up, whatever, I paid money for that market or show.
- 2:21:57[UNKNOWN]: So I really have no way to be like, yeah, this is a bigger place for money.
- 2:22:04[UNKNOWN]: You know, Tarot seemed to think so that it was a solid number, you know, he'd say, I think he said he would have been liked in a due 2000, but they felt six people short.
- 2:22:12[UNKNOWN]: So it's not a big deal.
- 2:22:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:22:14[UNKNOWN]: But, but yeah, the Tocosports article that came out, he said he thought it was established, it's important to establish holding, you know, big shows on weekdays too, and that's a goal they want to have.
- 2:22:24[UNKNOWN]: So this is the big first step for them.
- 2:22:27[UNKNOWN]: some of the dumbest fucking people on Twitter, I'm social media, took this as some like, I don't know, there was like this whole narrative that he was having to go apologize for with a number of age or something.
- 2:22:36[UNKNOWN]: I'm just like, what the fuck are you people talking?
- 2:22:39[UNKNOWN]: Like people, the people on who just don't like start them can never like be normal about it.
- 2:22:44[UNKNOWN]: And it's not even just like there's nothing to ever complain about what to start.
- 2:22:47[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I think plenty of plenty of a start of this podcast in the last month and a half.
- 2:22:52[UNKNOWN]: There's a few quite a few things in start of my really.
- 2:22:54[UNKNOWN]: Don't like right now, such as the fact that the, you know, the wrestlers keep disappearing through these long-fucked runs outside the company that I just think are really, you know, it's gotten to be too much of these excursions.
- 2:23:05[UNKNOWN]: I'm including two of the wrestlers in the opener.
- 2:23:10[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, like, you don't have to pretend doing two, almost 2,000 fans on a week date at Odo Ward, Jim, is this giant disaster?
- 2:23:18[UNKNOWN]: It clearly isn't, like they clearly, not progressive questions, do smaller numbers in this all the fucking time.
- 2:23:24[UNKNOWN]: Like, it's not, it's like 400 fans less than they did last year with a far stronger main event, because there was also a mobile one to not be getting her, um, you know.
- 2:23:34[UNKNOWN]: getting her challenge after winning the dream star.
- 2:23:36[UNKNOWN]: I don't fucking holiday.
- 2:23:38[UNKNOWN]: It's like, no, there's clearly not a disaster of a number.
- 2:23:40[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what to tell you.
- 2:23:41[UNKNOWN]: You don't have to say it's a great number, I guess.
- 2:23:43[UNKNOWN]: I think it's probably a pretty good number and give it all the context.
- 2:23:45[UNKNOWN]: But like, you don't have to act like it's this giant disaster that Tara was like, fucking go to the press to somehow, I don't know, bake for forgiveness or something.
- 2:23:55[UNKNOWN]: I don't know how to describe how these people have tried to spend, it was really stupid.
- 2:23:58[UNKNOWN]: Anyway.
- 2:24:00[UNKNOWN]: Good to have Walker on the call here, too.
- 2:24:01[UNKNOWN]: That, that, him and Jim Bo are good, good little team.
- 2:24:05[UNKNOWN]: I think Jim Bo, Jim, is a Jim Bo bungee, that's his name, right?
- 2:24:09[UNKNOWN]: I think, you know, you can tell he's there, right?
- 2:24:12[UNKNOWN]: I didn't, I didn't listen to the English commentary.
- 2:24:15[UNKNOWN]: Oh, okay.
- 2:24:16[UNKNOWN]: Well, I think you did a good job.
- 2:24:19[UNKNOWN]: I think they do a good job together.
- 2:24:20[UNKNOWN]: Jim Boe is much better if I talk about last time as a second chair than he is just trying to do it by himself.
- 2:24:25[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, hopefully if you do a good job on commentary.
- 2:24:28[UNKNOWN]: The opener was a non-title tag match, zero knee line, a zooming in with you on a sake, beating their own stablemates, may Sierra and Emma Mayshima.
- 2:24:37[UNKNOWN]: It was a zooming pinning Emma in 1813 with the diving double foot
- 2:24:43[UNKNOWN]: Uh, you cannot trust these two govelins apparently because May and Emma went for the handshake with her own unit made so immediately jump them.
- 2:24:50[UNKNOWN]: Uh, Emma got a lot of focus here.
- 2:24:52[UNKNOWN]: She got four more exchanges with both me and Azumi and I thought Azumi and Emma had a really fun exchange for the end with his Emma almost put it game the pin on her a couple of times during this exchange of Pratels before Azumi did put her away at the top of double stamp.
- 2:25:06[UNKNOWN]: Uh, very fun little open here as you probably expect.
- 2:25:08[UNKNOWN]: I would three and a half stars.
- 2:25:10[UNKNOWN]: Yep.
- 2:25:10[UNKNOWN]: High energy.
- 2:25:12[UNKNOWN]: really worked really quickly.
- 2:25:14[UNKNOWN]: Also ties into, I can't quite say storyline, but I do think it's notable that May and Emma are tagging together as a team for the Goddess League.
- 2:25:26[UNKNOWN]: And it's probably important to help establish them by having them tack together and big spots like this, especially against the current champions, especially because they won't get a chance to have them match against
- 2:25:42[UNKNOWN]: you're in the league.
- 2:25:44[UNKNOWN]: We're not better about that at all.
- 2:25:49[UNKNOWN]: Uh, match number two was a three way trio smash, which was the team of Maki Eto, Kika for a sour and Rihon, beating the team of Rina Mashita, it's K-O-K and Akira Kurogane.
- 2:26:04[UNKNOWN]: It was a Eto pinning Akira in 956 with the WMDT.
- 2:26:09[UNKNOWN]: And the other trio was the trio of Shuri, Amisori, and Hina from
- 2:26:14[UNKNOWN]: from God's eye.
- 2:26:15[UNKNOWN]: So, I'm sorry, it's going to seem a lot as well.
- 2:26:17[UNKNOWN]: That came out very recently.
- 2:26:18[UNKNOWN]: So, that explains why she's not in the tag tournament.
- 2:26:21[UNKNOWN]: But, unironically, you know, I get people who are going to think I'm crazy because some people don't understand my love of amy or lady's say.
- 2:26:28[UNKNOWN]: Not having the regular, the regular Tokyo towers in this tournament was like a big along with the R&E line.
- 2:26:34[UNKNOWN]: It was a big reason why I didn't really want to cover this tournament on daily basis again.
- 2:26:39[UNKNOWN]: Like, it's two of my favorite teams from my street tournament are just not in it this year.
- 2:26:42[UNKNOWN]: along with like some of the other weird teams that are in this year.
- 2:26:45[UNKNOWN]: But it's just like, yeah, just not, I don't know.
- 2:26:47[UNKNOWN]: Tire these fucking excursions.
- 2:26:48[UNKNOWN]: It's a fucking one time a year we do a Thai tournament, and we can't, so we can't have our amy, amy, and let you see, or the fucking Thai champions in it, just like the ethical work fucking CMLL, I don't know.
- 2:27:00[UNKNOWN]: So, I mean, maybe we should save some of this conversation for later.
- 2:27:03[UNKNOWN]: I used to share that opinion.
- 2:27:05[UNKNOWN]: I've really warmed up to the teams that they've chosen for the tag league.
- 2:27:12[UNKNOWN]: uh finished review in the show uh the early part of this match was a little according to Maywak all the group posing by the uh hero respect Gundam and then maybe Zaloka but it definitely picked up out for that there's this funny spot where Shuri was about to give her soccer ball kick to Yamashita but Yamashita who had or it's about to give her soccer hook to Eto I mean
- 2:27:35[UNKNOWN]: But Yamashita, who has shown a weird affinity for E2 at times, like shoved it out of the way and took the bullet for his dead.
- 2:27:41[UNKNOWN]: With what?
- 2:27:42[UNKNOWN]: You know, it's quite important.
- 2:27:43[UNKNOWN]: If you've wrestled together in GCW, that is a memory that will bond the two of you for life.
- 2:27:49[UNKNOWN]: That's just how it is, John.
- 2:27:50[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what to tell you.
- 2:27:52[UNKNOWN]: That's funny.
- 2:27:53[UNKNOWN]: E2 had to hype herself up just to finally confront Shuri, even from behind.
- 2:27:57[UNKNOWN]: If you had Yamashita in an armbar, but yeah, ultimately, she was able to get the penalty here.
- 2:28:02[UNKNOWN]: Pretty good match by the end.
- 2:28:07[UNKNOWN]: Oh yeah, I got.
- 2:28:10[UNKNOWN]: I think I got malware out of it than you.
- 2:28:12[UNKNOWN]: This this felt to me like the classic DDT second match comedy spot that was in a hundred percent dedicated to comedy, but I had enough spots in it that especially the part with Renet sacrificing herself or thinking she
- 2:28:36[UNKNOWN]: and seeing that and going nope, I don't want any part of this was a hoot.
- 2:28:40[UNKNOWN]: So I don't know, it worked for me well enough.
- 2:28:47[UNKNOWN]: Uh, then we had, after just we got a bunch of dates, new dates here, so February 11th for Supreme Fight Osaka, plus day announced early March, Red Zone, Hiroshima.
- 2:28:58[UNKNOWN]: Now I've been thinking, oh, that's the name of the similar name that New Japan used before.
- 2:29:03[UNKNOWN]: I wonder if they cleared that ahead of time, as it turns out, the answer is no, because I had to change it.
- 2:29:08[UNKNOWN]: They did not know that was, that was the name of the American New Japan used.
- 2:29:12[UNKNOWN]: So that was funny.
- 2:29:13[UNKNOWN]: They got a much better name, though.
- 2:29:16[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:29:18[UNKNOWN]: Do you know what's the name for this question?
- 2:29:19[UNKNOWN]: What's the name for this question?
- 2:29:21[UNKNOWN]: Crimson Bloom.
- 2:29:24[UNKNOWN]: Huh, that's pretty good.
- 2:29:25[UNKNOWN]: Right?
- 2:29:26[UNKNOWN]: A lot more evocative.
- 2:29:30[UNKNOWN]: Uh, yeah.
- 2:29:31[UNKNOWN]: I wonder why do you have any idea why they're sticking with that red theme?
- 2:29:37[UNKNOWN]: Uh, I don't know.
- 2:29:39[UNKNOWN]: I guess if I think it's like a color important of the city, I would assume.
- 2:29:43[UNKNOWN]: But uh, okay.
- 2:29:45[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I don't know for sure, but yeah, that's a brand new show because there was nothing last year comparable but freeing supreme fight in Osaka and the Cinderella tournament.
- 2:29:53[UNKNOWN]: So now we're just getting, it's a new pair of rebasically.
- 2:29:55[UNKNOWN]: They put in the train them.
- 2:29:57[UNKNOWN]: Oh, it's out.
- 2:29:57[UNKNOWN]: They gave the Cinderella dates as well, right?
- 2:30:01[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
- 2:30:02[UNKNOWN]: So it's opening a cork in ending at your comic boot account, which I think is, I think it's only four nights total this year versus five this past year.
- 2:30:09[UNKNOWN]: I think
- 2:30:16[UNKNOWN]: You're gonna go to Con.
- 2:30:18[UNKNOWN]: Oh, okay, okay.
- 2:30:19[UNKNOWN]: That, that okay, not the Ibu to Con.
- 2:30:21[UNKNOWN]: Not, no, not Nippon, but to Con.
- 2:30:23[UNKNOWN]: But to Con in Japanese, it's like great hall or something, I say.
- 2:30:26[UNKNOWN]: I do.
- 2:30:27[UNKNOWN]: So I know, but still, it feels like it's not beyond the realm of possibility that they would book the finals of Cinderella there, right?
- 2:30:37[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so it's four nights, definitely four nights this year.
- 2:30:39[UNKNOWN]: Corrican, opener, then Kobe, Sambo, then Accity, Hamamatsu, then Yokana, Budakanzo finals.
- 2:30:48[UNKNOWN]: And then this past year, I believe it was five.
- 2:30:50[UNKNOWN]: Got to let me just confirm that now.
- 2:30:54[UNKNOWN]: Yes, this past year was five.
- 2:30:55[UNKNOWN]: So they were basically reduced.
- 2:30:56[UNKNOWN]: They were placed one night of this tour with this other big show, with this Hiroshima show that already got renamed.
- 2:31:05[UNKNOWN]: So there you go.
- 2:31:06[UNKNOWN]: Interesting.
- 2:31:07[UNKNOWN]: I know Siri technically has a challenger, but assuming she retains, who would you like to see challenger for dream-cleanedum?
- 2:31:18[UNKNOWN]: Who's left?
- 2:31:21[UNKNOWN]: Well, you're soon Siri, I'll be doing whatever not supposed to do.
- 2:31:25[UNKNOWN]: I think Sakurawa are going to win the tag league, and that's going to be their match again.
- 2:31:28[UNKNOWN]: They're going to win their second straight tag league, and they're going to be a challenge.
- 2:31:32[UNKNOWN]: zero knee line.
- 2:31:34[UNKNOWN]: Who doesn't have a big match yet or even tease a big match?
- 2:31:43[UNKNOWN]: I have a pitch.
- 2:31:44[UNKNOWN]: Otaomi, Otaomi will be based with Sia one way or the other.
- 2:31:47[UNKNOWN]: And vice versa, you could do Susia if she loses to Micah.
- 2:31:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, from a red belt champion by that point.
- 2:31:58[UNKNOWN]: And yeah.
- 2:32:00[UNKNOWN]: could make sense.
- 2:32:01[UNKNOWN]: I do think she's losing a micah, by the way.
- 2:32:04[UNKNOWN]: I have a pitch for you of who I think she should face for drink, coined him.
- 2:32:10[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 2:32:10[UNKNOWN]: She here on Moshimoto.
- 2:32:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because she did lose her on this here.
- 2:32:16[UNKNOWN]: Also earlier this year, they have a long established rivalry.
- 2:32:20[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:32:21[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I think you could make a lot of sense
- 2:32:29[UNKNOWN]: If there could somehow be through the connection, it's like there was somehow losing the spell to, since obviously New Japan's now kind of owned by the same people's Tokyo Jersey if they could somehow get like a Tokyo Jersey person in there, but I don't think they could ever happen politically.
- 2:32:42[UNKNOWN]: But that'd be crazy though.
- 2:32:44[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I don't know.
- 2:32:48[UNKNOWN]: I guess we'll see.
- 2:32:50[UNKNOWN]: uh... the next book for match eight woman tag uh... i a soccer a psych occur uh... so you're yano and on a kind of cougar angels beat the team of a lady sea tomica in naba rana yagami and pioca that's you from god's eye uh... sciica putting kioca in eleven minutes and eight seconds uh... first of all that he said i think he said the name of the cosmic angel wrestlers incorrectly
- 2:33:16[UNKNOWN]: Uh, it was Kana Nian, and uh, who Rauri Nian, I can't do the rest a little bit, but, okay.
- 2:33:26[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, so, God's I remember as we're doing some kind of Halloween cosplay and Chinese garb, including what you see is like the Chinese zombie, what you see, she was, what you see was born to be a Chinese zombie, but she did a amazing job with that role.
- 2:33:38[UNKNOWN]: So apparently there's a pun as well, because you know she likes to replace the she in Japanese
- 2:33:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, well, the Japanese word for hopping vampire is apparently like Yoshi or something like that.
- 2:33:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because she is deaf.
- 2:33:58[UNKNOWN]: Yep, yep, so that's why she chose that.
- 2:34:01[UNKNOWN]: And also she revealed in a Hershey Pro column that she had a gear malfunction at the Kirk and Hall show.
- 2:34:09[UNKNOWN]: And very quickly needed some gear to replace it.
- 2:34:13[UNKNOWN]: and decided to just do a Halloween costume and rope in the rest of God's eye, which is why we're getting a costume match at all.
- 2:34:21[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that's crazy.
- 2:34:22[UNKNOWN]: I didn't even know that.
- 2:34:23[UNKNOWN]: So, convict angels, they had a bunch of fuzzy hat and cat paws.
- 2:34:26[UNKNOWN]: Ciori looks so upset by this.
- 2:34:28[UNKNOWN]: She was so upset.
- 2:34:28[UNKNOWN]: Yes, that.
- 2:34:29[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, not just fuzzy hats, fuzzy cat ear hats.
- 2:34:33[UNKNOWN]: Very, very, very cute.
- 2:34:35[UNKNOWN]: Ciori was incredibly depressed.
- 2:34:38[UNKNOWN]: And I guess the idea was that Captain Nyan Saka was making them do it.
- 2:34:42[UNKNOWN]: And Saga kept getting her the thumbs up in the corner while Ciori just looks like she wanted to die.
- 2:34:46[UNKNOWN]: I feel very, I feel like Kuraro was the catalyst here.
- 2:34:52[UNKNOWN]: She tried to get the ref to wear cat ears.
- 2:34:54[UNKNOWN]: That's true.
- 2:34:55[UNKNOWN]: And A was very excited to be a cat.
- 2:34:58[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 2:34:59[UNKNOWN]: She was so into this.
- 2:35:01[UNKNOWN]: I wanted to mention too.
- 2:35:02[UNKNOWN]: So obviously it wasn't here.
- 2:35:03[UNKNOWN]: It was on the the cork and I watched it.
- 2:35:05[UNKNOWN]: What did they do the new gear, the Sakurawa?
- 2:35:08[UNKNOWN]: I have to do the gear though on Twitter.
- 2:35:10[UNKNOWN]: Amazing.
- 2:35:11[UNKNOWN]: Is that the best?
- 2:35:12[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 2:35:13[UNKNOWN]: The best new gear.
- 2:35:16[UNKNOWN]: It's like because I think it's magical girl inspired like the zero knee line word, but I think it's just another level on top of that
- 2:35:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so it looks like they look like they're on a fucking state fight about magic girls, like that's to that level.
- 2:35:31[UNKNOWN]: It's not just magical growth inspired.
- 2:35:33[UNKNOWN]: Like it looks amazing.
- 2:35:34[UNKNOWN]: If you like the magical girl aesthetic at all, which I, anyone who knows me, well, if you can take one look in my bedroom and see that I very much do, or just look at my bag with all my fucking T-times and everything.
- 2:35:45[UNKNOWN]: And, you know, 90 Shodho is kind of my favorite aesthetic out there.
- 2:35:49[UNKNOWN]: I'm very excited.
- 2:35:50[UNKNOWN]: It was very excited about these outfits.
- 2:35:52[UNKNOWN]: Very, very, very into these outfits.
- 2:35:55[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, definitely big fan of that whole aesthetic.
- 2:35:57[UNKNOWN]: I need to get you a pretty cure.
- 2:35:59[UNKNOWN]: If it wasn't for all this wrestling, you could be watching so much pretty cure.
- 2:36:06[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 2:36:08[UNKNOWN]: A person I know in Japan loves pretty care.
- 2:36:11[UNKNOWN]: Personally, I know professionally, let's just say, a big, pretty care of him.
- 2:36:15[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, just funny, giving, given her profession.
- 2:36:17[UNKNOWN]: You would not expect her to be a pretty care family.
- 2:36:19[UNKNOWN]: She has a huge, pretty care family.
- 2:36:23[UNKNOWN]: Psycha tried to give rough dicey cat.
- 2:36:26[UNKNOWN]: Here's like you said, he said, no, but then she gave him a referee.
- 2:36:30[UNKNOWN]: Lucien mask, he did put that on.
- 2:36:32[UNKNOWN]: So you did get in the cosplay, move it that.
- 2:36:35[UNKNOWN]: I just appreciate that they had a plan B.
- 2:36:38[UNKNOWN]: because somebody was like, no, he's not going to go for the cat ears, but they knew they had to have him dress up in something.
- 2:36:44[UNKNOWN]: Guys, I get so excited for costume matches.
- 2:36:49[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, I may be alone in this.
- 2:36:52[UNKNOWN]: I loved it when Stardom did the mask fiesta matches.
- 2:36:56[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to watch that miracle Halloween show where they're all in costumes and masks as well.
- 2:37:02[UNKNOWN]: I love this shit.
- 2:37:04[UNKNOWN]: This is exactly the kind of like,
- 2:37:07[UNKNOWN]: light-hearted little extras something on top of a well-worked match that just love it.
- 2:37:15[UNKNOWN]: I will say the match itself, I thought was just fine.
- 2:37:18[UNKNOWN]: It was like gentleman's three-haired story, but yes, as far as I'm excuse to see cute women wearing different cute outfits, the normal, it was two thumbs up for that.
- 2:37:28[UNKNOWN]: Yep, and the rest of Cosmic Angels
- 2:37:37[UNKNOWN]: Um, I loved the God's eye costumes as well.
- 2:37:40[UNKNOWN]: We're going to talk more about the costumes than we are the actual match.
- 2:37:42[UNKNOWN]: I hope that's okay.
- 2:37:44[UNKNOWN]: Um, so you mentioned Lady C is the hopping vampire.
- 2:37:48[UNKNOWN]: Um, I forget what the, we had, um, Anaba as like a chun, uh, chunley has a name for the style of dress that she has.
- 2:38:00[UNKNOWN]: And I forget what it is, but it's that which fits Anaba great, right?
- 2:38:05[UNKNOWN]: Since she also has great kicks.
- 2:38:07[UNKNOWN]: Um, and you also had Rana and I don't know the exact term for it, but it was like what I associate with, um, like, young Chinese men in the, I think it's Qing dynasty films, Hong Kong films.
- 2:38:23[UNKNOWN]: That looked really cool and there was also more traditional dress for Kyoka.
- 2:38:27[UNKNOWN]: Everyone looks so good.
- 2:38:28[UNKNOWN]: I love that they were all on theme to, this is the kind of thing where I just want every faction and every tag team.
- 2:38:35[UNKNOWN]: to have matching costumes at all times, for exactly this kind of thing.
- 2:38:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:38:41[UNKNOWN]: All right, I've done a question about that.
- 2:38:43[UNKNOWN]: We can move on.
- 2:38:45[UNKNOWN]: Then we got these stars versus hey, Elimination match.
- 2:38:48[UNKNOWN]: We definitely didn't spend any, that's the thing we wasted time on this podcast that people fight on care about.
- 2:38:53[UNKNOWN]: Not the fucking 55 minutes you spent on your compulsion.
- 2:38:57[UNKNOWN]: Stars for Z, 11 Asia Match, the Stars Team of Hanan, Saiaida, Micah, Uttamayashashida, Hanako, Wakasuki Yamah, Yuriyahime, and Batoya Hamaabe, beat the hate team of Natsugatura, Momoa Tanabe, Momoa Tanabe, Kanami, Saia Kamatani, Rakha, Rina, Bepreasian, Azusa,
- 2:39:26[UNKNOWN]: make sense because the old team was basically just a variation on my retinous scene song and she's obviously long gone.
- 2:39:32[UNKNOWN]: It's a bit of a generic upbeat song, but I think it changed what's needed.
- 2:39:36[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I think it's too generic.
- 2:39:39[UNKNOWN]: This is one of the few cases where on first listen, I thought, oh, I'm never going to remember this, how this song goes.
- 2:39:45[UNKNOWN]: What are our
- 2:39:48[UNKNOWN]: Um, as usual for a Japanese validation match, this is pin fall submissions or over the top rope.
- 2:39:53[UNKNOWN]: Uh, the first relation came very quickly.
- 2:39:55[UNKNOWN]: Azusa, pinned, uh, Waka almost immediately in one minute and seven seconds with a, uh, like a simple, like almost a commonly simple light trip in cross leg flash pen.
- 2:40:07[UNKNOWN]: So that gave hate and a on-savita vans route the bat.
- 2:40:09[UNKNOWN]: Thanks for coming out, I guess Waka.
- 2:40:12[UNKNOWN]: Uh, and the next relation did take quite a while.
- 2:40:14[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure she just didn't have to in this match.
- 2:40:17[UNKNOWN]: uh... you're a humane was the next first eliminated by rena in six minutes and three seconds with the pink devil um...
- 2:40:24[UNKNOWN]: So that made it eight on six for hate and then Matoria Hammabe went out only a minute later in seven minutes and 18 seconds Getting pinned by the waka off this big splash off the top so made it eight on five.
- 2:40:37[UNKNOWN]: I liked the way they did this.
- 2:40:38[UNKNOWN]: They got rid of the cannon fodder for stars on the way quickly And we had to wait and see now the actual push members can make any kind of comeback, which of course they did
- 2:40:47[UNKNOWN]: The next person out was Hanako getting stars on the board in 11 minutes and 19 seconds when she eliminated, oh, sorry, 8 minutes and 42 seconds, not that long after that 8 minutes and 42 seconds.
- 2:41:06[UNKNOWN]: Then Saida and Konami had a big exchange and they ended up both going out in 11 minutes around the 11 minute mark.
- 2:41:14[UNKNOWN]: It says 11.19 for Konami 11.33 per Saida because they were fighting up the top rope.
- 2:41:19[UNKNOWN]: Konami got the black spray, got the black spray of death and spray Aida.
- 2:41:24[UNKNOWN]: When you know just fucking no sold it later off the apron anyway, that was a fucking awesome visual.
- 2:41:29[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:41:29[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, that briefly made it six to five, but after either ward back, face paint and all, Sia Sama, uh, struck her and immediately sounded affordable in there as well.
- 2:41:38[UNKNOWN]: So that made it back to six or eight.
- 2:41:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, but eat a look like a fucking champ in this.
- 2:41:44[UNKNOWN]: I, uh, that I think there's juicene, uh, Sia eat a white belt run,
- 2:41:53[UNKNOWN]: and then challenging hot and again, wouldn't have necessarily paked that as a role that she could play, but there's longevity now in how quickly the crowd gets invested in any of her matches, especially against hate.
- 2:42:07[UNKNOWN]: She especially shines in that kind of role.
- 2:42:11[UNKNOWN]: God, this was a really good match up until this point.
- 2:42:16[UNKNOWN]: Then we had rena as the next elimination in 1320.
- 2:42:22[UNKNOWN]: So basically, Micah, Pinter at the end of a nice exchange from the two of them with the Mitsunoku Driver 2, which did get a Wimbax from rena beating her on the five star semis a few months ago.
- 2:42:31[UNKNOWN]: And then, so hold your horses on what would develop next.
- 2:42:35[UNKNOWN]: It could be the fucking dream queen of minivan.
- 2:42:36[UNKNOWN]: It was what we're talking about.
- 2:42:38[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, that was five to four hate.
- 2:42:40[UNKNOWN]: Ruaqa, Elimid Hanaco, and 1423, after a mobile hit over the bat shots, the legs from the apron, so you eliminate or, you know, the outside of the ring, elimination, so I mean if five, three-hate, but then Hanaco, almost, or, I'm not, I should say, almost immediately cradles Ruaqa.
- 2:42:58[UNKNOWN]: and 1439 at the 17th, or a signature flash pen that made it four to three.
- 2:43:04[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, this is great at this point.
- 2:43:05[UNKNOWN]: All the automations come in fast and furious because all action, you know, is still having so fast the poor commentators couldn't even keep up with the automations.
- 2:43:13[UNKNOWN]: There is this cool-the-look change where Saya wouldn't even acknowledge her tummy at all to refuse to even exchange forms with her and just like charge back to the corner hit on the unsubborn state of that was cool.
- 2:43:24[UNKNOWN]: Saya and Micah went at it next, which was, that was interesting, right?
- 2:43:28[UNKNOWN]: I mean, if you believe any of the conspiracy theories about Micah originally being the one who was supposed to take the right belt off of her after her return,
- 2:43:36[UNKNOWN]: Because remember they did that weird thing, where she came out during the build to Sia and already last December that was her return and she like said she was going to be the one to fucking you know take care of Sia or like be the one to put you know basically be the one to take the ball of Sia and like bring justice back to start and all whatever the fuck she said and then they never went anywhere with that.
- 2:43:57[UNKNOWN]: and then she just loses about to sciica.
- 2:44:00[UNKNOWN]: And then we're like rumbling is online that like basically Micah got out politics by Sia slash maybe the shadows tab knock it out depending on what you believe she has to do anything.
- 2:44:11[UNKNOWN]: And you know, they got it, they got that change to sciica instead.
- 2:44:16[UNKNOWN]: But yes, if they did go out of here finally, and, you know, that then there was a crazy delimination, who Tommy, if somebody got tossed into both Si and Momo in the corner, Dr.
- 2:44:26[UNKNOWN]: Kicking them both off the apron, eliminating them both, that was at 1732.
- 2:44:32[UNKNOWN]: So that, for that point, 4-3-8 became 3-2 stars, not only a single moment, but only a
- 2:44:39[UNKNOWN]: Tor and previously left in the for the heels be I did I've done so little up at this point I don't know if you'd ever been the ring because remember thinking like who the fuck is still this match was I was Tor and I was like oh be precies in this match.
- 2:44:51[UNKNOWN]: I was like okay.
- 2:44:52[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I could not remember
- 2:44:55[UNKNOWN]: Uh, be pender for her former, uh, fellow Queen's Quest member, utong with the Queen's Landing.
- 2:45:01[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure her fans love that.
- 2:45:02[UNKNOWN]: I know I definitely did in 1844.
- 2:45:05[UNKNOWN]: Javidutami continued.
- 2:45:07[UNKNOWN]: Like, why could she get form of a top rope like all of hate dead?
- 2:45:10[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 2:45:11[UNKNOWN]: Uh, two two at that point.
- 2:45:14[UNKNOWN]: Micah pinned B with the Discus Lariat in 1954, so at that point now it's two one, so Torb versus another Micah.
- 2:45:25[UNKNOWN]: Toro managed to survive the two on one and kick out the Discus Lariat for Micah.
- 2:45:30[UNKNOWN]: Then Toris sent Micah into the rough barb, so we got a chair shot from her, a batch shot from Momo, and a kick off the top and Konami.
- 2:45:38[UNKNOWN]: And that all set up Torhe in the swan ton on mic up for the pen in 22 minutes and four seconds So it all came down to the two unit leaders Torra and Hanan The one thing I thought a little weird at this point was I felt like Hanan was way too dead for how little we saw her Take in the actual like how little we saw in the match it all basically like I was like why is she like saying like she's destroyed here?
- 2:46:03[UNKNOWN]: I don't know that was like just kind of weird
- 2:46:07[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the, I'm not, she was kind of involved in a lot of the match and it's a lot of match, I don't know, makes sense to me, I guess.
- 2:46:17[UNKNOWN]: Okay, all right, I guess I was going to say to listen to the announcers, they basically said, I'm not going to talk a lot of damage on the outside, which I'm seeing most of them.
- 2:46:25[UNKNOWN]: Maybe that's what I was just not thinking of, but you know, she did get up after that and started throwing forms of tour anyway, so whatever, had not seemingly had
- 2:46:35[UNKNOWN]: Everyone came back in and started fighting, including me still Blackface Eda, which was funny.
- 2:46:41[UNKNOWN]: BMI 2000 tried to double team Hanan, but she moved out the way, and they both collided, and then Hanukkah had a double-laried on them, or even walk, I got a big moment with a dive before, but the crowd just, I don't know, but the one thing about this is the crowd did not seem to listen to this as I thought they would be.
- 2:46:56[UNKNOWN]: but utami and eta help to non-tripple team Torah, which I like what they do stuff like that.
- 2:47:02[UNKNOWN]: Like the heels are gonna be assholes and the faces should be assholes back sometimes in a situation like that's especially.
- 2:47:08[UNKNOWN]: And Hanna not hit two straight back top suit practices, the second one at the bridge, and that got the pen to give stars the way in 25, 52.
- 2:47:16[UNKNOWN]: So I thought it was pretty great.
- 2:47:18[UNKNOWN]: I thought it lost a little steam right towards the end.
- 2:47:22[UNKNOWN]: Like I was thinking for easy maybe even for in a quarter for a while, but like the weird lack of crowd reaction down the stretch was probably notable.
- 2:47:29[UNKNOWN]: There's another point in the camp who say Havana is over-push, compared to her popularity.
- 2:47:35[UNKNOWN]: As the crowd simply did not care as much when it was heard the end versus like Mike at utami, eat at others earlier.
- 2:47:41[UNKNOWN]: Sell a very good match that I enjoyed and you know I wish started with do more stuff like this But they do using these big units they have and doing like different you know like all you like we don't need to wait Get this like once you try to see here you can do this a little more often these big unit matches I don't think they do nearly enough faction warfare these days given they have such a big roster of well-defined units So I'd be fine with getting more this next year We're bringing back the unit tournament like they did you know a couple years ago, but yeah, oh they are
- 2:48:07[UNKNOWN]: No, I said they destroyed.
- 2:48:08[UNKNOWN]: Oh, yeah, I agree.
- 2:48:09[UNKNOWN]: 100%.
- 2:48:10[UNKNOWN]: They should.
- 2:48:10[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:48:11[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, three and three quarters.
- 2:48:12[UNKNOWN]: Very good match.
- 2:48:14[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:48:16[UNKNOWN]: Well, I agree that Hanan still isn't quite there.
- 2:48:22[UNKNOWN]: Not just in popularity, but in terms of just feeling like a big deal.
- 2:48:27[UNKNOWN]: This is the kind of match that you need to have to help establish the new stars in
- 2:48:36[UNKNOWN]: who are fighting together and working together.
- 2:48:39[UNKNOWN]: I think it also helps that for the Goddess Tag League, they've completely scrambled the old tags for the most part, for Enex's fee and stars.
- 2:48:52[UNKNOWN]: Like Wingory isn't tagging together and who else, a bread and rice isn't tagging together, right?
- 2:49:00[UNKNOWN]: That kind of thing.
- 2:49:05[UNKNOWN]: It was nice to see Utami and Eda already tacking together.
- 2:49:11[UNKNOWN]: It felt like they were already a cohesive team with a plan within the larger stars team.
- 2:49:17[UNKNOWN]: A lot of tack team moves together during their stretch during the match before Eda was eliminated.
- 2:49:26[UNKNOWN]: So you started to get a feel for what that team was going to be like.
- 2:49:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I thought overall, while it wasn't any kind of a gangbusters match that I think start them absolutely could have, if they really wanted to go all out for a big unit feud.
- 2:49:42[UNKNOWN]: Like they have in the recent past actually, like compare this to some of the blowoffs they've had for Enex's V versus MuvidoLoka, right?
- 2:49:53[UNKNOWN]: This is probably not as good as some of that.
- 2:49:57[UNKNOWN]: But I thought as far as establishing stars go, they did a very, very good job here of giving us a good sense of how they're gonna work together and making Han and feel more like a star because she was the hero here for her team.
- 2:50:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, overall very, very good stuff.
- 2:50:14[UNKNOWN]: Feels like a great start for the new stars.
- 2:50:18[UNKNOWN]: After we got a pretty generic baby face from our celebrate in the win, now that much to it really, but the idea is to start finally beating hate in a lot of confrontation and which did feel big, so like you were kind of like you were just saying.
- 2:50:30[UNKNOWN]: The semi made event.
- 2:50:31[UNKNOWN]: I'll interest me to get your taste on this because I like this match a lot.
- 2:50:34[UNKNOWN]: I thought it was really funny And I just really enjoyed it, but it like I don't know the the guy who does the voice rest thing Review like the reviews on the one for wrestling website the written review really hated it And some of a lot of people did too, but I really enjoyed this match.
- 2:50:47[UNKNOWN]: It was not before I in Schinger to Caggy Beating Harokki, Godo, and unimusimori in 1725 with the Poys style main or made in Japoy
- 2:50:57[UNKNOWN]: for Yuna and like I said in 1725.
- 2:51:01[UNKNOWN]: So it started out with pouring Yuna on doing a nice little high-speed exchange to start, but then both immediately tied out to the male partners.
- 2:51:08[UNKNOWN]: I was wondering how the starting crowd would react to them, but if anything, they seemed excited to see them.
- 2:51:12[UNKNOWN]: Oh, extremely.
- 2:51:14[UNKNOWN]: It's part of my theory that a lot of the starting fans now are also just people who watch New Japan as well.
- 2:51:20[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 2:51:23[UNKNOWN]: Corey got tagged in and the two of them did some, they tried to do some double-teaming.
- 2:51:26[UNKNOWN]: Well, the first they did, their double-team was going, okay, Schingo helped her dropkick, go-do, and then dropped her down onto him, and she even got a near-fall on go-do, but then they went for a double-lary it, go-do moved and Schingo accidentally closed line her down, which earned him a hardy round of booze, which he reacted pretty fondly to.
- 2:51:42[UNKNOWN]: Like, I didn't mean to do that, like that, you know.
- 2:51:44[UNKNOWN]: The thing was, Schingo selling like, confusion and outright is always funny, so.
- 2:51:49[UNKNOWN]: uh... go to being a gentleman tagged out to you demand let her go from there against play and he came back in though and he and you demand hit play with a double shoulder block when go to cover their after shingo should go to cover their shingle came in and try to drop an elbow to break it up would first of all i would do that and go to go out of the way so shingle ended up dropping the l one his own wife who's dead which again got him finally blew by the crowd
- 2:52:13[UNKNOWN]: then Corey tried to form Godo, only for him to knee here in the gut, which now got him booed, but then Shingo kicked him in the back, and that literally, Corey hit a cool little wheelbarrow bulldog on Godo, for tagging back out to Shingo.
- 2:52:26[UNKNOWN]: Shingo tried to do the, it's time time time thing, but you don't mind interrupting it to back out her booed now, I was like, no, we want to hear, we want to hear what the, the spouse will be, the axel's spouse will be, as we'll have to say, okay, we like his catchphrase.
- 2:52:39[UNKNOWN]: Um, the, yeah, then uh, that was fine though, because it gave Schingo employee a chance to do double time instead.
- 2:52:45[UNKNOWN]: That was funny.
- 2:52:47[UNKNOWN]: Then we got a Schingo versus uniform confrontation.
- 2:52:50[UNKNOWN]: You're going to try to Larry at him, which Schingo kept absorbing and Schingo finally answered back to the forum.
- 2:52:56[UNKNOWN]: But go to Kman and Larry to Schingo to soften them up and you know finally knocked him down the leg of her own getting a two count off of it.
- 2:53:02[UNKNOWN]: You are then actually managed to briefly let Shingo off his feet to his stun reaction, but he got back down and threw her down before elbow dropping her again to big booze for tagging back as a boy.
- 2:53:13[UNKNOWN]: Then we had more marital miscommunication, which saw, so Shingo basically, boy had you on grab from behind.
- 2:53:21[UNKNOWN]: and Shingo was supposed to grab part from behind to the double German, so help her German, you know, mom basically, you know, I have to size a banjo on poi.
- 2:53:29[UNKNOWN]: But go to grabs, you know, it's orange for the apron, so only poi went over.
- 2:53:32[UNKNOWN]: So go to Shingo, just gave his wife a German soup.
- 2:53:36[UNKNOWN]: And the English now should start specifying all his accidental spousal abuse slightly to a divorce.
- 2:53:40[UNKNOWN]: That was funny.
- 2:53:41[UNKNOWN]: But finally, the spouse of double team worked, Shingo, Larry the Unimon, while Poy had her in a rear race lock.
- 2:53:47[UNKNOWN]: After first, almost getting his own wife again, but thank which she also abducted the first time.
- 2:53:51[UNKNOWN]: And then they tried to double German again this time at work as planned.
- 2:53:54[UNKNOWN]: And Poy started head by the Ring Corner Products, she was gate-kid for some reason.
- 2:53:58[UNKNOWN]: And then kept taking it to Unimon, and hit the Twisting Splash off the top, but Uniquid out.
- 2:54:03[UNKNOWN]: Shingo then took out, go to the pumping bomber, and the married couple hit sort of simultaneous, not quite the close enough, I guess, made in Japan
- 2:54:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I know that's not just pretty awesome.
- 2:54:14[UNKNOWN]: I mean, the whole story they told of the modern team having their issues, which they also told leading up to it, too.
- 2:54:20[UNKNOWN]: Before finally, I get together at the end, it was a lot of fun.
- 2:54:23[UNKNOWN]: And then you're after the bell, she goes just apologizing to boy for all the issues.
- 2:54:26[UNKNOWN]: So I thought it was a great mix of comedy and action that I greatly enjoyed.
- 2:54:29[UNKNOWN]: I went for a star's on it.
- 2:54:32[UNKNOWN]: Also, I thought, like, what I read people say, like the men weren't signed for the women, I was like, what?
- 2:54:37[UNKNOWN]: I did the men bump for the women pretty butt, they quite a bandless match.
- 2:54:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like you can't they can't just be flying around like they're a fight I've got to You buff it eventually like there's still can't be flying around like the girls have super strength Because it doesn't make sense.
- 2:54:51[UNKNOWN]: I mean they don't they don't say much like some spots where because not to pull you so much smaller than anybody else in the ring
- 2:54:58[UNKNOWN]: the the men especially aren't going to sell much for her in some spots, but it made sense at the time.
- 2:55:04[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 2:55:06[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 2:55:06[UNKNOWN]: She got to give it like a weird she got to take you go to like a wheelbarrow bulldog.
- 2:55:09[UNKNOWN]: It's something like these guys.
- 2:55:11[UNKNOWN]: I have seen matches with inner gender with a men barely leave their feet for the women.
- 2:55:15[UNKNOWN]: This was not that.
- 2:55:17[UNKNOWN]: No.
- 2:55:17[UNKNOWN]: So I don't know.
- 2:55:18[UNKNOWN]: Like they, you know, you never got to hit a Larry on Shango.
- 2:55:21[UNKNOWN]: I mean, they did they give stuff.
- 2:55:22[UNKNOWN]: It's not like they didn't.
- 2:55:23[UNKNOWN]: They bump from them pretty good actually.
- 2:55:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like you've said, there's been some ungenerous to the point where the people saying this come across as dense kind of interpretations of the smatch.
- 2:55:35[UNKNOWN]: I don't know any other way to put it like if you come away from this going, oh, they just did spousal abuse as comedy.
- 2:55:43[UNKNOWN]: You're an idiot.
- 2:55:43[UNKNOWN]: That's that's they're really not the story they're telling here.
- 2:55:47[UNKNOWN]: It's two wrestlers having miscommunication issues as they gradually build their
- 2:55:54[UNKNOWN]: cohesion together as a tag team, and then once they have that, they win pretty easily.
- 2:56:01[UNKNOWN]: It's a perfectly fine story for a match it works for.
- 2:56:05[UNKNOWN]: I think Shingo and not deploy.
- 2:56:08[UNKNOWN]: They're both such big characters that it's hard not for the whole thing to feel like comedy in a way where
- 2:56:19[UNKNOWN]: If you had more serious wrestlers, do try to do roughly the same match, it might come across a little differently.
- 2:56:26[UNKNOWN]: I think Shingo and Poe are naturally good at comedy, and the match kind of lended itself to that in a way.
- 2:56:34[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, it worked.
- 2:56:37[UNKNOWN]: The match worked really well for me as well.
- 2:56:40[UNKNOWN]: I enjoyed it a lot as well.
- 2:56:41[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if I'd have gone forestart, because I do think it was weirdly short.
- 2:56:49[UNKNOWN]: do more, but it's breezy at worst, so good stuff.
- 2:56:55[UNKNOWN]: And then the main, that's what else is that they're gonna team up again on November 21st at the unbound company produced Corrican.
- 2:57:02[UNKNOWN]: There are opponents at the time or TBA, but now we know they're gonna be Cobb and Hashimoto.
- 2:57:07[UNKNOWN]: Main event, excuse me, excuse me, beets start like head in 23 minutes and six seconds with the German Suplex Hall to make her a third defense of the World of Starving Title and third defense.
- 2:57:20[UNKNOWN]: let me see this.
- 2:57:22[UNKNOWN]: I because I have it down as a second, but the star on website is down as third.
- 2:57:25[UNKNOWN]: What am I forgetting?
- 2:57:25[UNKNOWN]: Let me see if I can name it up to her.
- 2:57:29[UNKNOWN]: So she beat.
- 2:57:29[UNKNOWN]: She beat Tora.
- 2:57:32[UNKNOWN]: But I don't know.
- 2:57:32[UNKNOWN]: Wait, when did she beat her?
- 2:57:34[UNKNOWN]: That's a Cotora.
- 2:57:36[UNKNOWN]: That was like that was a storm to the world.
- 2:57:38[UNKNOWN]: You're going to put it on.
- 2:57:42[UNKNOWN]: She beat.
- 2:57:44[UNKNOWN]: Oh, Tommy.
- 2:57:44[UNKNOWN]: Oh, Tommy.
- 2:57:46[UNKNOWN]: Oh, the Tommy.
- 2:57:46[UNKNOWN]: Oh, the Tommy.
- 2:57:47[UNKNOWN]: Korken Hall.
- 2:57:48[UNKNOWN]: Oh, that's right.
- 2:57:49[UNKNOWN]: That's right.
- 2:57:50[UNKNOWN]: Now after, after before, I just said they don't do water starting telemetres at Korken before that was the one they did this year.
- 2:57:55[UNKNOWN]: So that's fine.
- 2:57:56[UNKNOWN]: But yes, she'd be due to Tommy at Korken.
- 2:57:59[UNKNOWN]: I forgot about that one.
- 2:58:00[UNKNOWN]: Today was your third defense.
- 2:58:04[UNKNOWN]: We got a huge bump, pretty much right up the jump.
- 2:58:07[UNKNOWN]: As they ended up on the apron early on, where Shoes do hit like a low angle set out power bomb, that looked nasty, that she threw kittens and shares after that.
- 2:58:16[UNKNOWN]: She was dominating early, even openly mocking her, the S.O.K.D.
- 2:58:19[UNKNOWN]: dance back in the ring, before hitting that standing move saw that always looks so impressive that a girl of her size can do it, and not even just do it, but do it effortlessly and look that good doing it.
- 2:58:31[UNKNOWN]: Starlake kids finally got going with their own strategy though, which of course is the start targeting Susan's leg, but you didn't get to do it that much before Susan already put her back down with the high speed German up the second rope before exiting the ring, but but exiting for that though left her open for SOK to hit the rope assisted dragon screen when she was re-entering it so that was a cool little sequence.
- 2:58:53[UNKNOWN]: Uh, they traded some hard strikes where Susu just fucking planted her with a big release German, which less both girls down, she got through the 10-minute call, uh, started a kid hitting her version of the 10s on tombstone driver, then went up top for a moon saw, but Susu got her knees up, which of course her her as well, up to the lightwork, so both girls sold it really well.
- 2:59:12[UNKNOWN]: And she'd then hit me to kill a shot for a close near fall.
- 2:59:15[UNKNOWN]: Susan hit another big German.
- 2:59:17[UNKNOWN]: That's okay.
- 2:59:18[UNKNOWN]: Escape though when she tried to turn into a rolling German only then to leave right in the Susan's arms with a huge sit-out power bomb.
- 2:59:24[UNKNOWN]: That looked awesome.
- 2:59:25[UNKNOWN]: That got into your camp.
- 2:59:26[UNKNOWN]: Starlight Kicking back at the one woman's fanished fly, the eternal foe, but Susan kicked out just for the 15 minute call.
- 2:59:34[UNKNOWN]: That's okay, then locked in the black tiger leg killer delivered the grounded dragons career before putting it back on and very high drama drama here, what suits you selling it she was going to go actually like tap out and then selling it she was going out, what she was able to finally push kids like a side and grab the ropes great moment great submission to use there.
- 2:59:53[UNKNOWN]: Starlight Kid hit the moonsell off the top this time with Susie once again kicked out Then that's okay hit a tiger shoeplex for a two count with the crowd at this point was as low as they've been all night And then she tried to go with these star shoeplex version, but Susie wouldn't let her left her Was she kind of left up to stop kid from hitting it she hit the mat and collapsed on the bad leg though, which was a great bit of selling on Susie's part
- 3:00:13[UNKNOWN]: And then Sterlake Kid tried to go up top again, Susu was back up and cut her off.
- 3:00:18[UNKNOWN]: Kid fought her off and T is going for a top rope tiger driver or something.
- 3:00:22[UNKNOWN]: The Susu is able to fight back again and knock her off again.
- 3:00:26[UNKNOWN]: Somehow, okay, now this is the thing I didn't see until I saw it footer a bit.
- 3:00:30[UNKNOWN]: Tritter gift of it later.
- 3:00:32[UNKNOWN]: I just saw Sterlake Kid come up bleeding like crazy.
- 3:00:35[UNKNOWN]: And after where I saw it, basically at some point when they were fighting over here at the corner,
- 3:00:43[UNKNOWN]: Like she's fucking named her gill like broke her tongue.
- 3:00:48[UNKNOWN]: Now she broke her nose, I think.
- 3:00:51[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, it is intense how much she's bleeding to.
- 3:00:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, it could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure she broke her nose.
- 3:00:59[UNKNOWN]: Praise your left for that.
- 3:01:00[UNKNOWN]: But I, you know, um,
- 3:01:04[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, so then at that point, Starlight Kid went back up there and got slammed off the bit of rope where they happened to some slam from there, managed to kick out and she was just really gushing.
- 3:01:21[UNKNOWN]: She got the mobile latch out of nowhere, almost got her to win.
- 3:01:24[UNKNOWN]: Susan though ran over the Larryette, but it's starting to kick down at one.
- 3:01:27[UNKNOWN]: Susan then hit the high speed German, followed by a second German with a bridge, but it's starting to kick down, which very few, very few we will ever do since Susan started using that as her finish.
- 3:01:37[UNKNOWN]: And then Susan maintained the grip though and dropped her with another German, and tore the heart out of Charlie Kid fans everywhere, including me.
- 3:01:44[UNKNOWN]: And that was the pin.
- 3:01:46[UNKNOWN]: Uh, this is fucking awesome.
- 3:01:48[UNKNOWN]: Easy four and a half stars for me.
- 3:01:49[UNKNOWN]: I believe the best match we're going to talk about in this show.
- 3:01:51[UNKNOWN]: I think yeah, I don't think I break anything at this level and nothing else a quarter and a half.
- 3:01:56[UNKNOWN]: Um, just, well, I think I have one match before.
- 3:01:59[UNKNOWN]: I have actually about, I think I'm a DDT show.
- 3:02:00[UNKNOWN]: I think I have this higher.
- 3:02:01[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, just really went to overdrive down the stretch.
- 3:02:05[UNKNOWN]: Um, and you know, again, the drama, you know, the connection.
- 3:02:08[UNKNOWN]: I really wanted to see Starlight K1.
- 3:02:09[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I like Susan a lot.
- 3:02:10[UNKNOWN]: I think she's a great champion.
- 3:02:11[UNKNOWN]: But like I just really, I thought there was at least a chance Starlight K1 was when I got, I just wanted to see her when the web rebel.
- 3:02:16[UNKNOWN]: But they got me again with that car and saying as I talked about.
- 3:02:20[UNKNOWN]: Now you're thinking Susan Suzuki's going to drop the belt to Michael.
- 3:02:26[UNKNOWN]: and get well so afterwards users said there was someone she wanted to fight and she called out my uh with a marine appeared and confirmed to be challenging to read about a dream queen them and doesn't care against too so tells them how they're matched beforehand I don't know, Mike I read I just screened more dream queen the main to read than so user reading a dad's but I could be wrong.
- 3:02:43[UNKNOWN]: How come?
- 3:02:45[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, it's a good question because I don't think she has much of a history with either of them so either feels like
- 3:02:55[UNKNOWN]: I'll be honest, I would rather see Susu Suzuki versus Rina, and again, I'm just, I'm just a fan of Susu Suzuki, so it's probably most of it right there, but this, this match, in particular, that we're talking about, so I like it versus Susu Suzuki.
- 3:03:09[UNKNOWN]: In terms of my favorites here, would have been like choosing between hypothetical children, just, it'd be impossible to do, and I, I thought the match was just terrific.
- 3:03:22[UNKNOWN]: Like I said, when I was talking about the
- 3:03:25[UNKNOWN]: that this reminded me of, they just, from the beginning of the match to the end, it felt like a contest of throwing bombs very deliberately.
- 3:03:39[UNKNOWN]: Paces such a way that they sell the impact of everything, the build of the match over time, makes a lot of sense.
- 3:03:48[UNKNOWN]: And it all culminates in just a match that felt pretty intense throughout,
- 3:03:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, four and a half thanks since to me.
- 3:03:57[UNKNOWN]: That's probably be where it was.
- 3:04:03[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, just incredible match.
- 3:04:05[UNKNOWN]: You know, just really went over drive down the stretch especially, which we don't look to the up to that four and a half level for me.
- 3:04:10[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, I mean, so just one of those festivals again, is having a very quietly great year.
- 3:04:15[UNKNOWN]: Like I never see anyone talk about her for most outstanding, but I don't really care about that.
- 3:04:21[UNKNOWN]: Why could she have your girl?
- 3:04:24[UNKNOWN]: No, um, I think it's because her five star grain peri was underwhelming.
- 3:04:31[UNKNOWN]: You thought it was in the lobby?
- 3:04:31[UNKNOWN]: I just got to say I thought it was going to good.
- 3:04:33[UNKNOWN]: She was really good, but I don't think there was a standout match.
- 3:04:36[UNKNOWN]: I think it's what I'm saying.
- 3:04:38[UNKNOWN]: I think if she had had a performance like Tai Chi did, as sorry, not Tai Chi, uh, Suji did in the G1, then I think that would have done a lot to help establish her as a
- 3:04:53[UNKNOWN]: big champion, a lot of people's minds.
- 3:04:55[UNKNOWN]: I think it also is tough that even though she's not really following say a comatonie, she kind of is in the sense that like she's a much bigger, she's a much longer running champion than Curaura was.
- 3:05:09[UNKNOWN]: So it feels like a more natural comparison and because say a comatonie did so much to take start to the next level in popularity with
- 3:05:22[UNKNOWN]: feels like she's just not getting it for one reason or another.
- 3:05:24[UNKNOWN]: Maybe she's not interested or not the type to go on television or shows like love it.
- 3:05:29[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 3:05:32[UNKNOWN]: I can't say Susie won't love it now.
- 3:05:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:05:35[UNKNOWN]: She just strikes me.
- 3:05:37[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what it is.
- 3:05:39[UNKNOWN]: It's just that's not everything.
- 3:05:42[UNKNOWN]: Now, but yeah, good show overall.
- 3:05:45[UNKNOWN]: Quite enjoy that.
- 3:05:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I enjoyed it a lot.
- 3:05:50[UNKNOWN]: This felt like a return to form in many ways.
- 3:05:52[UNKNOWN]: And here's hoping the Suzuki Rain doesn't end anytime soon.
- 3:05:56[UNKNOWN]: She's just consistently putting out banners.
- 3:05:59[UNKNOWN]: Every time she's asked to, was step up for a main event.
- 3:06:02[UNKNOWN]: And we should also say nice things about Starlight Kid as well, but I kind of feel like she always gets her flowers.
- 3:06:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, who is listening?
- 3:06:10[UNKNOWN]: Who's going to be like, ah, Starlight Kid, I don't know about her.
- 3:06:14[UNKNOWN]: Right, right.
- 3:06:16[UNKNOWN]: I feel like it's inevitable that we're going to get star like kid in the next year or two in a red belt run.
- 3:06:23[UNKNOWN]: It's just not right now.
- 3:06:27[UNKNOWN]: Uh, but yeah, good show.
- 3:06:29[UNKNOWN]: Now, I'm trying to have much star coverage for a little bit because they're going to the top Thai tourmer to decide not to do daily coverage of this year, but they have another core coming up next week on the 11th next Wednesday, they have two straight weeks of
- 3:06:48[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the tagly wraps up, I mean, it's not that long.
- 3:06:51[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it wraps up three weeks from the Sunday on the 29th, which I'm going to cover the finals of that at least.
- 3:06:55[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it's all tagly all the time this month.
- 3:06:57[UNKNOWN]: So yeah.
- 3:06:59[UNKNOWN]: There you go.
- 3:07:00[UNKNOWN]: Who is who the fuck is to purchase me on PPP's corrican?
- 3:07:04[UNKNOWN]: Look at this calendar.
- 3:07:06[UNKNOWN]: That is not the direction I was expecting this conversation to go.
- 3:07:10[UNKNOWN]: Okay, so Hanako will be teaming up with Echika Miyabe to phase 20 and to Kumi Aroha at PPP, the real party 2026 cork in Holland of every 26.
- 3:07:20[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:07:22[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that is a side of parents for a ride.
- 3:07:25[UNKNOWN]: Also, let's say, we have a lot of outside of parents.
- 3:07:27[UNKNOWN]: There's Gilbert Candoris for you at the University of Cork, and that was this past Monday, and we had our in that car again.
- 3:07:34[UNKNOWN]: Candid can leave you at home, where the fuck can leave you at home.
- 3:07:38[UNKNOWN]: Okay, I don't know where that is.
- 3:07:43[UNKNOWN]: What the hell is GXW Dojo?
- 3:07:46[UNKNOWN]: I guess I'll never know because I already happened also.
- 3:07:49[UNKNOWN]: Like all these different things.
- 3:07:51[UNKNOWN]: Send Niagara rolls, they're part of Spain.
- 3:07:52[UNKNOWN]: Oh, because that's the finals of the tournament, right?
- 3:07:56[UNKNOWN]: Mattoya, I'm not big, I'm sorry.
- 3:08:00[UNKNOWN]: Uh, and then all this weekend is if anyone wants to do me if everyone has like thousands and thousands of dollars burning a hole in their pocket, oh no, I can't even get a ticket of the city.
- 3:08:10[UNKNOWN]: I just want to make a joke.
- 3:08:11[UNKNOWN]: We want to supply me to Japan for my, uh, co-is in May, cafe, fighting angels to day their bays with the bell cell, bell cell, Shinjuku, South Ex, but even a ticket to Japan wouldn't even get me in the door anyway, so it's long sold out.
- 3:08:26[UNKNOWN]: So.
- 3:08:26[UNKNOWN]: Save your money.
- 3:08:27[UNKNOWN]: Mr. Rich, Mr. Rich, better factor.
- 3:08:31[UNKNOWN]: We should rank the cosmic angels from most to least enthusiastic about wearing a maid dress.
- 3:08:39[UNKNOWN]: Well, obviously, Sarah's going to be least.
- 3:08:41[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:08:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:08:42[UNKNOWN]: That's a given.
- 3:08:44[UNKNOWN]: I don't know who the most would be.
- 3:08:45[UNKNOWN]: I guess I'm an A. I mean, I suck her in Karabo's strike me as nerdy enough that that's something they like doing.
- 3:08:53[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:08:55[UNKNOWN]: And you know, I bet it's a different, you know, that's probably in different.
- 3:08:59[UNKNOWN]: And it's probably into it.
- 3:09:00[UNKNOWN]: Poor is probably not that I only say poor is a little indifferent.
- 3:09:04[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to say this is kind of nerdy to her, I think.
- 3:09:06[UNKNOWN]: Probably.
- 3:09:10[UNKNOWN]: I hope there's a lot of great pictures coming out of that.
- 3:09:13[UNKNOWN]: Okay, actually, you know what, there are seats available.
- 3:09:17[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, if Elon Musk can spend a fucking $490, no, $490 million.
- 3:09:25[UNKNOWN]: That's a billion dollars.
- 3:09:27[UNKNOWN]: Half a billion dollars, which, by the way, over 99% what the candidate to loss.
- 3:09:32[UNKNOWN]: So, if you think this country is fucking stupid, you don't even know how stupid it is that we have someone with that much money that can just fucking go and do that.
- 3:09:43[UNKNOWN]: I know it, this says sales, and maybe the sales are hard.
- 3:09:46[UNKNOWN]: Maybe it is sold out, actually.
- 3:09:49[UNKNOWN]: Cause I'm looking at lawsuits of sales ended.
- 3:09:52[UNKNOWN]: My dreams are dead again.
- 3:09:53[UNKNOWN]: My dreams are the mystery benefactor.
- 3:09:54[UNKNOWN]: Oh no, okay, it's our bare-won Pia.
- 3:09:57[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:09:57[UNKNOWN]: You're getting 32 investors into this hypothetical draw.
- 3:10:00[UNKNOWN]: And I gotta say, get me out of plane, get me a sweet sea for 10,000 yen.
- 3:10:08[UNKNOWN]: and get me a very nice accommodation, so I can go to the May Café Rambacos and thank you.
- 3:10:14[UNKNOWN]: Please help me.
- 3:10:17[UNKNOWN]: If you're Elon Musk can spend that money on losing, look, on white Elon Musk spending that money on literally nothing.
- 3:10:26[UNKNOWN]: You will be making one person happy at least.
- 3:10:29[UNKNOWN]: You'll be making me very happy.
- 3:10:31[UNKNOWN]: So get out of your checkbook and get me on a plane.
- 3:10:34[UNKNOWN]: Thank you.
- 3:10:34[UNKNOWN]: Or if you have, if you have miles, that's fine too.
- 3:10:37[UNKNOWN]: You know, obviously I'll take your miles.
- 3:10:39[UNKNOWN]: So whatever you want to do.
- 3:10:42[UNKNOWN]: All right.
- 3:10:42[UNKNOWN]: All right.
- 3:10:43[UNKNOWN]: How many of these tech teams do you want to get into?
- 3:10:45[UNKNOWN]: Or do you want to move on?
- 3:10:47[UNKNOWN]: Oh, okay.
- 3:10:47[UNKNOWN]: Sure.
- 3:10:47[UNKNOWN]: You want to go through the tank.
- 3:10:48[UNKNOWN]: Oh, there's just a few I think I was shouting out.
- 3:10:52[UNKNOWN]: So we mentioned May and Emma earlier.
- 3:10:55[UNKNOWN]: a big future with that tag team, actually.
- 3:10:58[UNKNOWN]: I think they could be going places.
- 3:10:59[UNKNOWN]: Maybe not necessarily this year, but it could be the kind of thing where if they stick together in a few years, their goddess champions together.
- 3:11:07[UNKNOWN]: I think they have good synergy.
- 3:11:09[UNKNOWN]: And then some of the new tag teams, I just think are amusing.
- 3:11:14[UNKNOWN]: So, Han and Waka, I think, is a fun combination.
- 3:11:19[UNKNOWN]: They had a,
- 3:11:21[UNKNOWN]: pretty surprising, let's put it that way.
- 3:11:23[UNKNOWN]: First match on the opening night, but I'll leave you to discover the details of how that went.
- 3:11:29[UNKNOWN]: I also have Fua and Ciori as a highlight right now.
- 3:11:36[UNKNOWN]: They have fun, let's say anti-chemistry or just the way Ciori sells being really annoyed at this girl who's extremely enthusiastic, really works for me as
- 3:11:48[UNKNOWN]: Partly comedy, but also like they got, they got their win on the first match.
- 3:11:53[UNKNOWN]: They might be pretty legit contenders for the league, I don't know.
- 3:11:59[UNKNOWN]: I'm amused that Kyoka and Kyoko are tagging together.
- 3:12:03[UNKNOWN]: I guess entirely because their names are similar.
- 3:12:07[UNKNOWN]: Momo and Saya Kamatani as Black Swan.
- 3:12:10[UNKNOWN]: That's just a sick tag team.
- 3:12:12[UNKNOWN]: They'll be great.
- 3:12:13[UNKNOWN]: Maki Edo and Starlight Kid tagging together as trouble friends.
- 3:12:19[UNKNOWN]: Um, and I don't know.
- 3:12:21[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if it's going to be an amusing team or not out of the mini funny possibilities in this particular block in red goddesses.
- 3:12:30[UNKNOWN]: They might be the least funny, but I could see this working.
- 3:12:32[UNKNOWN]: I don't know.
- 3:12:34[UNKNOWN]: And yeah, like wing gory, not wing gory.
- 3:12:37[UNKNOWN]: Gory and roses, the of being the official tag team name for say it in utami.
- 3:12:42[UNKNOWN]: Come on, tell me you don't love that.
- 3:12:45[UNKNOWN]: That's pretty good.
- 3:12:45[UNKNOWN]: That's really good.
- 3:12:46[UNKNOWN]: I also like LVC and Hina as a tag team together.
- 3:12:49[UNKNOWN]: I think there's something there.
- 3:12:51[UNKNOWN]: In a way I never quite connected with Raywa Twin Towers.
- 3:12:56[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:12:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:12:57[UNKNOWN]: And also, I kind of am really into the karate duo of Ronna and Akira together.
- 3:13:06[UNKNOWN]: I think that's cool.
- 3:13:14[UNKNOWN]: there's an interesting team dynamic again.
- 3:13:16[UNKNOWN]: I'll leave you to discover that since I don't want to spoil it for you, but they're also telling a story in a way and I think it's pretty cool.
- 3:13:24[UNKNOWN]: Alrighty.
- 3:13:24[UNKNOWN]: All right.
- 3:13:25[UNKNOWN]: That's going to ice-reven because we've got two more promotions to cover.
- 3:13:27[UNKNOWN]: So we'll wrap up the jersey here.
- 3:13:29[UNKNOWN]: At least we won't take that long.
- 3:13:30[UNKNOWN]: I don't think.
- 3:13:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, very little say about this.
- 3:13:33[UNKNOWN]: One match in the show, I have quite a bit to say about, but it's time in the middle of the show, weirdly, which I don't know why it wasn't.
- 3:13:39[UNKNOWN]: Yes, there's ice ribbons, October 25th, skip city show, and that's the 10s of 118 people, which was down a little bit from the 139, they during the same building on September 6th, although that show had a quartet of match on top, which was sumicara yana gawa over a carbon army.
- 3:13:56[UNKNOWN]: Rico is the one who's opening things up here on the show because it usually is somebody who does like an opening promo with everybody in the ring and she asked as you cast
- 3:14:07[UNKNOWN]: So Kina, so Kina, so Kina will be now excuse me, so Kina will be now if she was going to help her out in the three-way title match later.
- 3:14:15[UNKNOWN]: But then she also made fun of her for apparently forgetting her own fantastic ice title, and when we know quite rightly it was like, well why the fuck should I help you then if you're going to make fun of me a little brat.
- 3:14:25[UNKNOWN]: So we go by to further challenge her own chances in that title match that would be kind of funny.
- 3:14:30[UNKNOWN]: The opener of the show was the team of Yappy and Nontolaga, beating Madeline and Yuki Minami.
- 3:14:37[UNKNOWN]: It was Yappy with the Kentucky bomb on Yuki in 1942.
- 3:14:42[UNKNOWN]: So this was Madeline's first appearance in ice-fribbon and months, which had not appeared since August 29th.
- 3:14:48[UNKNOWN]: And it was a first appearance anywhere.
- 3:14:50[UNKNOWN]: I've just said one brief time to show up in late September 20th.
- 3:14:54[UNKNOWN]: She's definitely been wrestling less than the year.
- 3:14:55[UNKNOWN]: She dropped from the mid 80s to even like 91 matches in 2021 now down to like 33 and 24 and 37 and 25 and 25 and just 25 so far in 2026.
- 3:15:06[UNKNOWN]: I assume she got like steady workouts out of wrestling or something.
- 3:15:08[UNKNOWN]: You see that happened with this level.
- 3:15:11[UNKNOWN]: She's from Osaka, I think, which is why she talked a lot about Osaka afterwards.
- 3:15:15[UNKNOWN]: So it could also be as simple as she moved back to Osaka, you know.
- 3:15:23[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I'm not actually no, she's from Tokyo, so I don't know why she's so much never mind.
- 3:15:29[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, but yes, so thought it was kind of a non-script opener, really just a match that happened.
- 3:15:35[UNKNOWN]: Like one of those matches I sat here and watched the whole time and just had no notes.
- 3:15:39[UNKNOWN]: I felt like taking at any point just wasn't a lot nor the, I guess, literally.
- 3:15:44[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, definitely some aboriginal, like two and a half.
- 3:15:47[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, very little to say about this.
- 3:15:52[UNKNOWN]: I still, I had forgotten about Madeleine entirely.
- 3:15:56[UNKNOWN]: I remember watching a lot more for matches during the pandemic.
- 3:16:00[UNKNOWN]: She still has, I wouldn't quite call her comedy wrestler, but she has a sense of style.
- 3:16:10[UNKNOWN]: Maybe let's put it that way, or a sense of going about things that feels pretty unique.
- 3:16:16[UNKNOWN]: So she's a welcome dynamic in this match and kind of a highlight.
- 3:16:22[UNKNOWN]: not much to say about this match.
- 3:16:24[UNKNOWN]: Was this like an anniversary match for Yappy?
- 3:16:26[UNKNOWN]: I thought they highlighted her in a particular way here.
- 3:16:30[UNKNOWN]: Hmm, I don't see anything on the graphic, but I could be wrong.
- 3:16:33[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:16:35[UNKNOWN]: I don't know why I got that impression to be honest.
- 3:16:37[UNKNOWN]: I'm just happy that I'm happy you came out of me still wrestling honestly.
- 3:16:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I thought we thought we'd never see her again when she left my gold.
- 3:16:44[UNKNOWN]: So she and she looked good here.
- 3:16:46[UNKNOWN]: She
- 3:16:52[UNKNOWN]: That's all I have.
- 3:16:54[UNKNOWN]: Um, afterwards, Madeline talked about ice ribbons in the river 22nd show.
- 3:16:58[UNKNOWN]: This is what you introduce yourself as ice ribbons.
- 3:17:00[UNKNOWN]: I'll sock up Ron branch manager.
- 3:17:02[UNKNOWN]: So that's fine, she's both sock out, but maybe she means he loves there now, I don't know.
- 3:17:07[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, she apparently that's ice ribbons first show and I'm sock it in like two years almost.
- 3:17:12[UNKNOWN]: The last one was December 8, 2024.
- 3:17:15[UNKNOWN]: And after brief pause, the basic key, she's like, the ticket sales are going great.
- 3:17:20[UNKNOWN]: And we may sell us here, so there's a potter has been, I think, like, dude, I'm going to say, oh, they're not going very well.
- 3:17:25[UNKNOWN]: She then says it'll be coming back to Osaka already in February, 27.
- 3:17:28[UNKNOWN]: So I guess that backs up, they're very happy with the sales of the show.
- 3:17:31[UNKNOWN]: Third, you know, they took them two years ago and now they're coming back three months later.
- 3:17:36[UNKNOWN]: Then we had the Triangle Ribbon Title match, the Champion and Karimanami, beating Supina Umino in seven minutes for make her first successful defense and Rico was in the smash as well.
- 3:17:48[UNKNOWN]: There's also Umino's return match because she was out since August 9th.
- 3:17:53[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if she should ask Eric, friend of the show is obviously a guest ghost, I hear a lot because he's pretty much always everything about this woman.
- 3:18:00[UNKNOWN]: I should ask him why she was out.
- 3:18:02[UNKNOWN]: I just don't remember.
- 3:18:02[UNKNOWN]: I don't know if there's an injury or anything.
- 3:18:06[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, glad to have her back either way though, because she rules.
- 3:18:09[UNKNOWN]: Actual child Rico through harder forms to uminose chest at one point, than many full grown adults of either gender.
- 3:18:18[UNKNOWN]: Like I was like, Jesus Christ, how is a kid throwing forms that are this hard?
- 3:18:23[UNKNOWN]: I was kind of amazed.
- 3:18:25[UNKNOWN]: I wonder if there's an element of well-she's tiny, so just teacher the throw it as hard as possible, so it looks legit.
- 3:18:32[UNKNOWN]: And then,
- 3:18:33[UNKNOWN]: five years now she's a grown-ass adult they all regret that because she doesn't have the muscle memory to pull her punches as far as that's speculation to be clear yeah it's a concierge me now you wanted to stick her boot up in the quote although you know why I was she like 12 and it does this I didn't say both I'm not saying here I doesn't do this like and she's maybe she's a little younger but I could just be regal like since we're
- 3:19:01[UNKNOWN]: No, maybe the kid is just kind of a kind of workstiff.
- 3:19:06[UNKNOWN]: Uh, me, now he wants to stick her boot up in the corner for we go to send umi down into, but as they went back and forth, it was eventually umi down and up sending we go into me, now he's bootin' instead, much to your intrigue, because me, now me, and uh, we go word tagging partners at one point, people in the back story before but now he kind of, uh, he kind of, you know, a banded we go to go when the tag titles with uh,
- 3:19:30[UNKNOWN]: with Minami Katsu instead.
- 3:19:32[UNKNOWN]: So, like, Riko's kind of not been fond of her since then.
- 3:19:35[UNKNOWN]: So, basically, I'm trying to like make enough to her, I guess.
- 3:19:38[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the thing I love about ice cream in three areas is they usually do some creative spots for the three-way setup rather than just the usual one-person cells to the other two-fight than they come back to pick up the pin nonsense, but yeah, just like, but the thing I didn't love to finish, so Rico thought she had the pin with a fisherman's two-plex and Minami kind of just laid across and was on and wedged for some reason, giving credit for the pin instead.
- 3:20:02[UNKNOWN]: It's usually like, you know, whoever lays on top of the pile gets credit for the pin,
- 3:20:07[UNKNOWN]: But never applies to the pin first.
- 3:20:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:20:09[UNKNOWN]: But I mean, no, whoever the positive pin last.
- 3:20:12[UNKNOWN]: Oh, last.
- 3:20:12[UNKNOWN]: Like, so we got the top pin, the top layer.
- 3:20:16[UNKNOWN]: Because because Rico had the pin first.
- 3:20:20[UNKNOWN]: Huh.
- 3:20:21[UNKNOWN]: Rico had the fisherman soup actually had the pin first.
- 3:20:23[UNKNOWN]: And man, he just kind of laid on top.
- 3:20:25[UNKNOWN]: And they gave her the credit for it.
- 3:20:26[UNKNOWN]: So this is one of the more to that, um, got a sleek show you didn't watch because there's a three way in that
- 3:20:37[UNKNOWN]: Um, not to boy was in a similar situation where she up, but she applied the pen last and she didn't get the credit.
- 3:20:44[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, I don't know.
- 3:20:46[UNKNOWN]: I don't know either.
- 3:20:47[UNKNOWN]: This was very confusing for me too.
- 3:20:49[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:20:51[UNKNOWN]: Um, anyway, this was a counterintuitive.
- 3:20:54[UNKNOWN]: Why would you credit the person who just happened to get their last?
- 3:20:57[UNKNOWN]: Why would you ever break up a fall if that's the case, actually?
- 3:21:01[UNKNOWN]: in a three way, but I guess the idea is she covered them both in pendulum both, but like but it caused it, it says her pin was on Tsukino, so I don't know, and it didn't look like she had Rico pin either in my head, so it looked like they're both simultaneously pinning her, simultaneously pinning her, you know, if anything.
- 3:21:21[UNKNOWN]: But whatever, I mean, between that and the last minute, Minami and Rico pin versus sequence looked a tad awkward, I thought the very end of this match took it down a slight notch, but still the match had mostly enjoyed, it's like three and a quarter.
- 3:21:33[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, then it was fine.
- 3:21:35[UNKNOWN]: I do feel ice ribbon has got it.
- 3:21:40[UNKNOWN]: I can't speak too much to modern ice ribbon, but when I watch them more often,
- 3:21:45[UNKNOWN]: In 2019 to 2021, the triangle ribbon matches title matches were usually a highlight because they were, like you said, they had a much better grasp of the psychology, the match psychology of a three way, and I think part of that is they're like the only promotion that is about that is only defended in three ways, so you have to get better at them and keep the audience engaged.
- 3:22:16[UNKNOWN]: So maybe the solution to all the bad three way main events that are plaguing wrestling apparently is we got to have more three ways it's the only we got to get out to get through.
- 3:22:29[UNKNOWN]: Then the match that I thought would be the main event, the one I was definitely most excited for, was the ribbon tag, next challenge or decision match, Sukasa Fujimoto and Kira Wakana, losing to Yuga and Kao Masashita, Yuga with the modified Yurinagaya and Wakana in 1519.
- 3:22:47[UNKNOWN]: So Eric again reminded me of some of the backs where he heard, some of the, some of I didn't even know before the match started, I didn't remember.
- 3:22:53[UNKNOWN]: But the big thing here is Yuga and Wakana have had a few going all year pretty much, and that's why Wakana looked like extra me in this match, but basically Yuga returned to wrestling, which was supposed to face Wakana singles match with the Cork and we both were at the...
- 3:23:09[UNKNOWN]: Rubin Mania, which got changed for three way when Monami cuts were to miss the show and they, you know, they had to change the title match.
- 3:23:17[UNKNOWN]: So they never had a blow off singles match or anything.
- 3:23:19[UNKNOWN]: And they teamed for a short period and then you could dipf, dipf Wakana for Kaho.
- 3:23:24[UNKNOWN]: So Wakana had even more reason to be mean.
- 3:23:26[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, very good.
- 3:23:28[UNKNOWN]: Just they very good like these very subtle like, you know, your long story lines like this, you know?
- 3:23:35[UNKNOWN]: see that's the kind of context I would have loved to know going in.
- 3:23:38[UNKNOWN]: I didn't get that at all Fujimodo and Wakana took control early.
- 3:23:44[UNKNOWN]: They sent their opponents to the forward double dropkicks and then Fujimodo like toss cow in a subchairs like she was a member of hate or something Kilai managed to power slam you get out there too and she pulled a tail off from the right I'm just like what the fuck did where I was like I didn't remember all the extra I was like why she going crazy over that makes way more sense
- 3:24:03[UNKNOWN]: Um, but what kind of whips you get in the shares to sets up the table and if we go to help skitter on there and we're kind of fucking dollars down, you got right throughout from the top of the floor.
- 3:24:13[UNKNOWN]: It's front of 180 people.
- 3:24:17[UNKNOWN]: 188.
- 3:24:17[UNKNOWN]: 188.
- 3:24:18[UNKNOWN]: 188.
- 3:24:20[UNKNOWN]: It's even worse.
- 3:24:21[UNKNOWN]: She's fucked.
- 3:24:22[UNKNOWN]: She crushed her.
- 3:24:23[UNKNOWN]: Like she's fucking full.
- 3:24:26[UNKNOWN]: We've watched a lot of table spots this week.
- 3:24:28[UNKNOWN]: This was probably the most brutal one.
- 3:24:31[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like she crushed her with that.
- 3:24:33[UNKNOWN]: So it was fucking crazy.
- 3:24:36[UNKNOWN]: So she was out of to that, which left Kahoe to fight on her own for a little bit.
- 3:24:39[UNKNOWN]: But you could definitely recover.
- 3:24:42[UNKNOWN]: Tags back in and she starts beating on Fuji mode with her signature hard forms.
- 3:24:46[UNKNOWN]: Maybe that's what happened.
- 3:24:47[UNKNOWN]: Maybe Rico learned how to throw forms from you guys specifically.
- 3:24:51[UNKNOWN]: Because she probably has the hardest ones in all of her wrestling.
- 3:24:56[UNKNOWN]: Fujibodo come back or came back with a hard corner drop kick, followed by a missile drop up the top, then locked her in the stranglehold, but Kaho broke it up with a pretty hard kick to the back, right after breaking free of a corner.
- 3:25:09[UNKNOWN]: Wakana ended up in there with Yuka and survived a few big shots from her, including kicking out of a cross-lake suplex, then Yuka went up top, but got cut off with a
- 3:25:23[UNKNOWN]: by Fuji Motor, this hard slap to the face, while Conor ran over and dropped it from the butt to put her in the rear well positioned in Fuji Motor, crushed her the double stomp from there.
- 3:25:32[UNKNOWN]: I off the top, I mean, but yeah, then Kahou caught Wakana off of the top row and super flexed her back down.
- 3:25:38[UNKNOWN]: She also followed Fuji Motor off too, but she's left Wakana with Yuka alone, and Yuka hits some huge forms of the chest on her, but Wakana came back with like, she come back up like a standing right out of nowhere, followed by like almost like a destiny now.
- 3:25:53[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what else to call this move, like she ran in.
- 3:25:55[UNKNOWN]: sort of like, Randy Yucca's arms like in a cross body position, but also swung her old body around and you'd end up taking like a spinning bump almost like a desk you know.
- 3:26:05[UNKNOWN]: Or you can another way to say it's like it's almost like what Shune Skywalker wants his stupid new move to be because very unique, but this time it but it actually leaves you with no doubt who's actually taking the move and whether or not it was actually hit or countered, you know?
- 3:26:18[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, it looked really good
- 3:26:22[UNKNOWN]: and then Wakana try to cradle, but you could cut back beautifully and hook her like like that for very close near fall.
- 3:26:29[UNKNOWN]: Unfortunately, then I think they messed up something up because you could just kind of end up staying stationary in a bridge for Wakana to stomp on her.
- 3:26:35[UNKNOWN]: That's what's look more natural.
- 3:26:37[UNKNOWN]: Not a huge deal though, just, you know, something that happened.
- 3:26:39[UNKNOWN]: And then you can end up getting another near fall off a cradle cut back, then after the 15 minute call hit her your anagate for the pen, this is the match I was super super hyped for and it lived up to my personal side, but thought of fucking rules, it started off right up the bat with that very unexpected table spot and just never let the foot off the gas for me so an easy four and a quarter and to be honest, I thought about going even higher, but you know, there was that one on her spot towards the end, but yeah.
- 3:27:02[UNKNOWN]: you know, awesome fucking match.
- 3:27:03[UNKNOWN]: Definitely this match has worked the price of the 899 for the ice ribbon YouTube by itself in my opinion.
- 3:27:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, this was really good and everyone looked impressive.
- 3:27:15[UNKNOWN]: I have a hard time giving more specific thoughts than that because I'm still getting my arms around most
- 3:27:27[UNKNOWN]: Uh, I think we all know, uh, Yuka and Suka are incredible wrestlers, right?
- 3:27:34[UNKNOWN]: I think we both agree with that and we all know that.
- 3:27:36[UNKNOWN]: Um, Yuka and Sucasa?
- 3:27:38[UNKNOWN]: Yes, sorry, Sucasa.
- 3:27:39[UNKNOWN]: Um, her nickname is Suka, though, right?
- 3:27:45[UNKNOWN]: Sucasa food you moto?
- 3:27:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think it might be right.
- 3:27:48[UNKNOWN]: Um, I might be, uh, Mr.
- 3:27:51[UNKNOWN]: Member and it's incredible how good she looks after what two
- 3:27:58[UNKNOWN]: It's not, it's like she hasn't lost the step.
- 3:28:03[UNKNOWN]: It was Umino in this map, not Umino, sorry, Matsushita Fuhou, who left a really good impression on me.
- 3:28:13[UNKNOWN]: She looked like she had, how do I put this?
- 3:28:20[UNKNOWN]: Like a no nonsense or a to her?
- 3:28:23[UNKNOWN]: It really, I'm starting it in, I, I, I,
- 3:28:28[UNKNOWN]: We've been going long already, so now I'm starting to fall apart when I'm trying to construct sentences.
- 3:28:34[UNKNOWN]: It's funny as I feel way more energized when we start this podcast.
- 3:28:37[UNKNOWN]: I'm going to be up the very late again, probably.
- 3:28:41[UNKNOWN]: It's back that the goal of the office tomorrow, but.
- 3:28:45[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I thought it was very good, not quite four and a quarter.
- 3:28:48[UNKNOWN]: And in fact, I think I might have liked the main event more.
- 3:28:55[UNKNOWN]: very, very good stuff.
- 3:28:57[UNKNOWN]: This is a good show.
- 3:29:00[UNKNOWN]: Almost.
- 3:29:01[UNKNOWN]: Maybe the next match I wasn't quite into, but how do you feel about it?
- 3:29:07[UNKNOWN]: I'm like, yeah, next match I didn't like it all really okay.
- 3:29:10[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, this was a total of Satsuki doing her intergender matches he's been doing.
- 3:29:14[UNKNOWN]: Here she loses to a guy by the name of Chon Shiri.
- 3:29:18[UNKNOWN]: She's chon Shiliu.
- 3:29:21[UNKNOWN]: I'm not very familiar with him at all as you can hear about how he just pronounced his name.
- 3:29:27[UNKNOWN]: But he started with DDT all the way back in 2004.
- 3:29:28[UNKNOWN]: He left for ice
- 3:29:32[UNKNOWN]: he end up in goto move choco pro in 2012 to be stopped that's got a scene and he's been in choco pro yeah okay i could not play some they yeah i mean it's uh
- 3:29:49[UNKNOWN]: Then we had, but yeah, so the matter is going OK. Oh, so Tyrion 1 in 1259 of the project A.
- 3:29:56[UNKNOWN]: There's going OK, until we've really had a rough bump.
- 3:30:00[UNKNOWN]: And this Chong guy actually got dry.
- 3:30:02[UNKNOWN]: He like dry the rough from front of him, basically on purpose.
- 3:30:04[UNKNOWN]: Then he dropped Kit Satsuki into the rough to bump him.
- 3:30:07[UNKNOWN]: I guess it was so Satsuki could get a visual pin on him.
- 3:30:09[UNKNOWN]: She had her top rope sent on him soon after, but there is no rough to count it.
- 3:30:13[UNKNOWN]: I mean, at the end of the pinning of his own backwards centon, I allow, I thought it was kind of boring.
- 3:30:18[UNKNOWN]: Didn't need a rough bump on a light for me to show.
- 3:30:21[UNKNOWN]: Two and a quarter, below average match.
- 3:30:24[UNKNOWN]: The thing that stuck out to me from this match was they built a weird amount of offense around ears.
- 3:30:33[UNKNOWN]: At first because when
- 3:30:41[UNKNOWN]: do what Susan Suzuki calls catch a ball with a jow.
- 3:30:47[UNKNOWN]: He doesn't have hair, so she can't do the full catch ball and then lands on the answer of, oh, I can just do that to his ears, which was funny and creative.
- 3:30:59[UNKNOWN]: Otherwise, very little about this match, that feels pretty notable.
- 3:31:04[UNKNOWN]: I bet if they did exactly the same match, but in Choco Pro, it go over a lot better.
- 3:31:11[UNKNOWN]: especially with a that's smaller crowd there that's very close.
- 3:31:16[UNKNOWN]: Hmm, probably.
- 3:31:19[UNKNOWN]: The main event was Sumica Yana Gawa and Makoto, beating Aminami Katzu and Riyoko Saki-Mura, Yana Gawa with an 850 and a schoolboy on Katzu.
- 3:31:32[UNKNOWN]: It's so interesting watching Riyoko because she's obviously, you know, if you came over Marigold, she left there for basically just not being any good and never improving.
- 3:31:41[UNKNOWN]: And she's still like a step slow while she's writing the ropes at times, and she still has that weird tendency to smile way too much, but she's so much better otherwise.
- 3:31:49[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:31:50[UNKNOWN]: Like, she did this luchessile arm drag off the ropes at one point, that I could not even imagine Mari Goldrio go ever pulling off.
- 3:31:58[UNKNOWN]: Like, I was like, how the fuck can she do this now, you know?
- 3:32:02[UNKNOWN]: But, you know, she did have some very reoccomment still like when she stumbled jumping up on the second rope to do a cross body and just had to sort of climb back up there awkwardly to hit the bow.
- 3:32:11[UNKNOWN]: So, sometimes she's, I think she's still a little too ambitious for what she appears to be I've likely capable of times, but then she followed up with a nice leg takedown, making use of her long legs and straight to a cool little leghole that sort of was like a modified figure for.
- 3:32:24[UNKNOWN]: And maybe she's just leaned more into that because she actually seems to be quite good at the technical side of things,
- 3:32:32[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, I don't this, okay, I think this is a misprank because they have this at 8.58 and I just said in my name.
- 3:32:39[UNKNOWN]: That was so slow.
- 3:32:40[UNKNOWN]: It's gotta be at least 18.
- 3:32:42[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, because it my thing said that got aimless since one reason I didn't like it about yeah 1858 there was a fucking type out there on the on the site.
- 3:32:49[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:32:50[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, so I said to say I thought it was pretty good.
- 3:32:53[UNKNOWN]: Sometimes a little aimless that definitely dragged for me for the 90 minute runtime.
- 3:32:58[UNKNOWN]: There were times where it was surprised by how Sumica and Katzu just didn't seem to work together super well too.
- 3:33:04[UNKNOWN]: But I really put that more on Sumica.
- 3:33:06[UNKNOWN]: I've never been as high on as some of the other
- 3:33:10[UNKNOWN]: And I kind of hate the finish too, which saw Katzu hit her sick top rope at World Drop, where she kind of comes across the opponent's upper chest and neck like sideways.
- 3:33:18[UNKNOWN]: Only for Sumica to just know Stella and Reversor will love out of nowhere with a pen.
- 3:33:22[UNKNOWN]: Like sometimes that can work, but I did didn't hear from me.
- 3:33:25[UNKNOWN]: So over I went to in three quarters, I only thought it was okay.
- 3:33:30[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I liked it more than that.
- 3:33:33[UNKNOWN]: I thought they all wrestled with good intensity here and Menami Katzu, I thought, looked especially good.
- 3:33:40[UNKNOWN]: Um, who, again, someone else I'm also still getting my arms around and trying to remember names.
- 3:33:48[UNKNOWN]: Otherwise, yeah, it's impressive that Ryoko does not look out of place.
- 3:33:58[UNKNOWN]: Uh, then we had what I was like the end of the show.
- 3:34:02[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, uh, uh, the other thing to I thought was very weird booking to, um, have like, you just set up a new tag challengers in mass three and you have one half of your tag champs lose the infinity champ when we already set up new tag challengers is kind of weird.
- 3:34:18[UNKNOWN]: But I thought of anything.
- 3:34:19[UNKNOWN]: There might be setting up an army costume for an infinity shot for this.
- 3:34:21[UNKNOWN]: They were all title people don't know, but I guess not because you got pinned here by the champion.
- 3:34:26[UNKNOWN]: So, afterwards, Sumica did confirm that she and Makoto want to go over the belts again as well.
- 3:34:32[UNKNOWN]: But then, Wakana showed up and pointed out that she pinned Sumica, all the way back on October 3rd, and Otositi, you know, when she and Sucasa had beaten Sumica and Makoto in the main, and Sumica, indeed, was like, you know, I'm surprised you'd ask you for a 50 shot right away.
- 3:34:47[UNKNOWN]: I thought you were ignoring me.
- 3:34:49[UNKNOWN]: Thought it was kind of funny.
- 3:34:50[UNKNOWN]: But then she points out that assuming that we're kind of lost the quote unquote dragon ball mash earlier that night.
- 3:34:57[UNKNOWN]: And we're kind of like who cares?
- 3:34:58[UNKNOWN]: I still because they had the idea was the winner was, all right, I've already mentioned this.
- 3:35:01[UNKNOWN]: Kyle said after they won that match three, that 13 yout of the dragon balls like winning seven straight matches the team.
- 3:35:07[UNKNOWN]: And that was how they earned the title shot.
- 3:35:09[UNKNOWN]: So that was fun.
- 3:35:10[UNKNOWN]: They got to the dragon balls.
- 3:35:12[UNKNOWN]: But anyway, yeah.
- 3:35:13[UNKNOWN]: So we're coming back to this.
- 3:35:14[UNKNOWN]: We're kind of like who cares.
- 3:35:15[UNKNOWN]: I still be you and she also says her birth day next month So she challenged her for the title on October 8th and Eda Bashi And Sumica asked her how old she's turning and then she said so give once she said 21 She's I'll give you the best and worst 21th birthday imaginable
- 3:35:32[UNKNOWN]: Ah, so there you go.
- 3:35:34[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, this match kind of the definition of a one match show in my opinion, I don't think you need to say anything except match three, but it seems like you like the main event more than I did, so I guess you would say that match too, but yeah.
- 3:35:44[UNKNOWN]: But the triangle ribbon match is pretty enjoyable for short-run time too, but.
- 3:35:51[UNKNOWN]: So what's coming up for a shrimp and only a few days now on November 8th, this is a paper roof shell from Tokyo Square into Boschie.
- 3:35:58[UNKNOWN]: Two big telemises on top, so Sumica Yana-Gawa versus Kyurai Wakana.
- 3:36:03[UNKNOWN]: Sumica going for a second defense, and then the champions, the tag champions, Monami Katsu, and the Karimanami going for the first defense against Yuka and Kaluma Toshita.
- 3:36:14[UNKNOWN]: So we'll see, that could be a telechange even though it's their first defense, I guess we'll say.
- 3:36:19[UNKNOWN]: Also on this show is Satsuki Tora and Nontaraga against Oncham and Yapi, Masihiro faces Riko and a battle of the child wrestlers, and then the opener is Makoto and Sukasa Pugimoto against Misakagara and Aisa Shinosei.
- 3:36:35[UNKNOWN]: So that's coming up this Sunday.
- 3:36:38[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, definitely a big, big doubleman event there.
- 3:36:42[UNKNOWN]: Kind of weird that Masa is on the show and her sister is, but anyway.
- 3:36:46[UNKNOWN]: Maybe my hair was washing her hair that day, I guess, I don't know.
- 3:36:49[UNKNOWN]: But there's your ice-driven card for this Sunday.
- 3:36:53[UNKNOWN]: And we'll be covering you next week.
- 3:36:54[UNKNOWN]: So check what you check back for that.
- 3:36:56[UNKNOWN]: All right, last show I'm going to talk about, thankfully, because we're approaching four hours, and it's also past midnight here.
- 3:37:02[UNKNOWN]: DDT, ultimate party, 2026 from Rio Gocosumohal.
- 3:37:08[UNKNOWN]: As usual, for DDT, no crowd number announced, but it looked pretty packed.
- 3:37:13[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and they were saying on commentary that they had never seen Ria Goku this full for a DDT show.
- 3:37:19[UNKNOWN]: So, sure which DDT would announce their numbers again, so we could know anything to compare it to, but... Yeah.
- 3:37:25[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure they would definitely want people to have a Marry Gold, and it wouldn't shop with their more people to know it, too, because now I had the...
- 3:37:31[UNKNOWN]: I mean, the DDT had the stage, but now I had the lesser setup with less boxes.
- 3:37:37[UNKNOWN]: So, yeah, I don't know.
- 3:37:40[UNKNOWN]: Did you watch the dark matter and watch it?
- 3:37:42[UNKNOWN]: I did, but not much to say about it.
- 3:37:44[UNKNOWN]: It was pretty solid though.
- 3:37:46[UNKNOWN]: So Shivam and you need to be tattooed, Toma Monsu, Matsunaga, Matsunaga, and Yukiyushida, you need to pin Matsunaga with a school boy in 75th day.
- 3:37:56[UNKNOWN]: The Oprah of the main show, Horashiba and Naomi Yoshimura, Yoshimura, defeated Junakiyama and Masani Nihara,
- 3:38:05[UNKNOWN]: Naomi pinned in the hotout with the Haleigh Goshe in 729.
- 3:38:09[UNKNOWN]: Pretty good opener.
- 3:38:10[UNKNOWN]: It really picked up the last couple of minutes especially But you have fun high impact moves, but I can't I'm losing my ability to talk now.
- 3:38:17[UNKNOWN]: I'm so tired Before Goshe Mara hit the capture layer yet for the pen three in a quarter pretty good match Well, this podcast is about to get completely unlicinable because I was already stumbling over my words earlier So if you're not legible, boy how do you are we in trouble?
- 3:38:35[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, this was a pretty star, uh, pretty good, uh, energetic start to the show.
- 3:38:41[UNKNOWN]: I feel like I say that a lot for these shows, but hey, it's important that the, uh, show get off to, uh, a good start on the right foot with some good energy.
- 3:38:51[UNKNOWN]: That's what this provides.
- 3:38:53[UNKNOWN]: Um, is there?
- 3:38:54[UNKNOWN]: I haven't paid that close attention to DDT.
- 3:38:58[UNKNOWN]: Is there a rivalry going on between Naomi and Missami?
- 3:39:04[UNKNOWN]: Have you been here, sorry?
- 3:39:05[UNKNOWN]: Uh, Naomi and, uh, I don't know the answer to that to be honest.
- 3:39:11[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:39:12[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:39:13[UNKNOWN]: This show, by the way, was so good.
- 3:39:14[UNKNOWN]: I thought shit.
- 3:39:15[UNKNOWN]: I kind of regret that I tuned out of DVT again.
- 3:39:18[UNKNOWN]: They really put on something good here.
- 3:39:23[UNKNOWN]: match number two, we had the Shinshira Takagi, Toro Ashi and Kazuki Hirata, the T2 heat-average union as a beat super-saltime machine in Tony O'Honda and Akito when Hirata pinned Honda with the Miracle One Shack, right on 801.
- 3:39:43[UNKNOWN]: Okay, so Takagi got his whole separate entrance, a poor Owashi gets Sam Storm cut off by Tokyo Go as usual, you know, one of the two always cut the other one off, and then gets neck chop on conscious to boot.
- 3:39:54[UNKNOWN]: So he was still laying on top of the stage with the next team came out, but Akite was nice on way come up, and then he seemed to disinfect the other team and everybody just started beating up here.
- 3:40:03[UNKNOWN]: Including Takagi too.
- 3:40:05[UNKNOWN]: And then they call it
- 3:40:11[UNKNOWN]: Later on, though, Akito took out here at that and replaced his own glasses, where placed, here's his glasses, his own glasses, and that called up the fucking Eurobeat Classic Datafire instead, and they did some parapherodance, that was awesome.
- 3:40:26[UNKNOWN]: So, if people have never seen it by the way, put this link in the forest while seeing discord when I was watching it live in the D.D.
- 3:40:32[UNKNOWN]: channel, the night of fight, do you know night of fire?
- 3:40:35[UNKNOWN]: It's pretty famous.
- 3:40:35[UNKNOWN]: Yes, I know night of fire and yeah, parapherod, yeah.
- 3:40:39[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, so I'm trying to associate it with it's a yellow culture thing, right?
- 3:40:43[UNKNOWN]: God, I butcher that word, but you know what I mean.
- 3:40:46[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and it's well, if it started out, and I think there's this one, Dita, we only made it popular originally.
- 3:40:51[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that's where I heard.
- 3:40:53[UNKNOWN]: That's where I heard the song first, but not the dance.
- 3:40:56[UNKNOWN]: But yes, parapara was like a very popular, like late 90s or a 2000s dancing.
- 3:41:01[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it was popping up that canali made a whole video game about it.
- 3:41:07[UNKNOWN]: Yes, I think that will not the machine, but that's how I heard about the dance.
- 3:41:12[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, it's it was like a very early example, I guess of those like sensors that that they use like later on, like, I don't know, like just dance or whatever.
- 3:41:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but obviously a very, very different, very like lesser version of it compared to obviously more come later because it came out in 2000 so The pair of pair of fan.
- 3:41:36[UNKNOWN]: How dare they call pair of pair of fans.
- 3:41:39[UNKNOWN]: It's a way of life.
- 3:41:40[UNKNOWN]: God damn it.
- 3:41:44[UNKNOWN]: pair of pair of strongly associated with Eurobeat.
- 3:41:46[UNKNOWN]: Eurobeat artist Dave Rogers described pair of pairs the only way to dance to Eurobeat, which is usually quote so fast.
- 3:41:52[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:41:55[UNKNOWN]: Well, I think some important thing about ParaPera is it's a very easy dance to do.
- 3:42:00[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, like if people can't picture it, um, it's almost all with your hands.
- 3:42:05[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, of course, it started in 1997.
- 3:42:07[UNKNOWN]: I didn't know it was that far back, really.
- 3:42:09[UNKNOWN]: I would, I thought of like, like, apparently the, said the first room with A792, second room was 1995, third room was 1991, uh, the causes boomers and largely credited to the appearance of Takuya Kimura on the television program,
- 3:42:29[UNKNOWN]: fourth boom 2005 2010 and then says fourth boom Glacial Period 2010 present okay wait we're still in a boom for parapera where's no way the Glacial Period no no not the Glacial Period for parapera yeah a sucks but no it's a lot of like wiggling your hands and swaying back and forth so anyone can do it even you yes you listener you should do it right now
- 3:42:56[UNKNOWN]: especially for driving or operating heavy machinery.
- 3:42:59[UNKNOWN]: You know, it's like similar to vlogging, right?
- 3:43:02[UNKNOWN]: Okay, that I don't know.
- 3:43:03[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:43:05[UNKNOWN]: Am I, do I just go to gay?
- 3:43:07[UNKNOWN]: Do I get to gay here?
- 3:43:08[UNKNOWN]: I just, I vote a lot about dancing to be honest.
- 3:43:10[UNKNOWN]: This is just weeping knowledge, not dancing knowledge.
- 3:43:15[UNKNOWN]: Why I think it's similar to vlogging.
- 3:43:16[UNKNOWN]: Like the very, Vogue is also very hands hand hand hand.
- 3:43:21[UNKNOWN]: I mean, is that what they call Jojo poses?
- 3:43:23[UNKNOWN]: Or what inspired Jojo poses?
- 3:43:25[UNKNOWN]: I think so.
- 3:43:26[UNKNOWN]: I think so.
- 3:43:27[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:43:27[UNKNOWN]: Have you seen Joe's bizarre adventure?
- 3:43:31[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
- 3:43:31[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:43:33[UNKNOWN]: In the video game, Rumble Roses XX, one of the penalty games of Queen's match is Paraparad Damsing.
- 3:43:39[UNKNOWN]: The girl who loses his force performed the dance and the spending on the costume the player chose, the girl might have a positive, neutral or negative reaction.
- 3:43:47[UNKNOWN]: make out your body.
- 3:43:50[UNKNOWN]: Another wrestling tie in.
- 3:43:52[UNKNOWN]: Did you ever play that game?
- 3:43:53[UNKNOWN]: Rumble roses?
- 3:43:54[UNKNOWN]: No, either do that.
- 3:43:55[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:43:57[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, I love that a fire.
- 3:43:59[UNKNOWN]: It's great.
- 3:43:59[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:44:00[UNKNOWN]: Do you know why I know that a fire from my spread of God?
- 3:44:02[UNKNOWN]: Dan stands for Revolution Dizzy Mechs.
- 3:44:05[UNKNOWN]: Because like there's a ton of Euro there's a ton of Euro be in Dan's Revolution Dizzy Mechs and so you
- 3:44:12[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, I think I played at Magic Kingdom actually as a little kid, so they are probably played night of fire.
- 3:44:18[UNKNOWN]: Because Magic Kingdom, the one time I went to Disney World, it was the only one of the only places in America that had a Japanese Disney mix arcade machine, so I think that's what I'm going to play.
- 3:44:31[UNKNOWN]: This was digging up like deeply that repressive, like forgotten about memories of initial D in particular.
- 3:44:39[UNKNOWN]: Oh yeah, I almost felt the sculpture watching this, which would probably be a more natural reaction, I guess if you're actually Japanese participant, Japanese culture, and have been sadly in a glacial period for paraphero, but... Well okay, what's going to say, there is a great music video, I don't think it's not been put in the discord, this is where I was ripped to go in with this, and then I
- 3:45:06[UNKNOWN]: There's like a famous Ricky Choshu cosplaying comedian.
- 3:45:10[UNKNOWN]: I can't remember his name now.
- 3:45:12[UNKNOWN]: I know I'm probably right in the YouTube video.
- 3:45:14[UNKNOWN]: But like he did this video, which I now realizing is probably very offensive because it probably has the underage girls probably do things that they should not be doing with the guy.
- 3:45:27[UNKNOWN]: But it's from 2004, okay, good to know any better.
- 3:45:30[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it just was a fool.
- 3:45:34[UNKNOWN]: Sorry, I could've let that pass.
- 3:45:38[UNKNOWN]: That was a joke, yes.
- 3:45:39[UNKNOWN]: Um, but yeah, the man, the man who's dancing with her nori team is he, uh, co-licky chose you, co-licky chose you, not ricky chose you.
- 3:45:47[UNKNOWN]: So yes, a comedian who belonged to a group called Nishi Gucci for a rest, which is Westgate for a wrestling.
- 3:45:54[UNKNOWN]: They got they were, they all have like different limitations.
- 3:45:57[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, his little, his name obviously co-wrote means little ricky instead of just ricky.
- 3:46:02[UNKNOWN]: So,
- 3:46:03[UNKNOWN]: But I would see I think I feel like I saw him a bunch actually when I was in the Japanese wrestling like he would just pop up doing like comedy spots even on like an Act for Japanese wrestling show sometimes, but him him in this video is very funny Again, unless you get to the part where he's doing something inappropriate with the underage woman and there's not funny at all I definitely never laughed at it But and you can't you can't cancel me look we're in woke 3.0 now I think you're not allowed to cancel me anymore That's what we're talking
- 3:46:30[UNKNOWN]: Right, that house works, woke 3.0 is like you're un-cancelable.
- 3:46:35[UNKNOWN]: Uh, I- We're not having even gotten my new pronouns for woke 2.0, so I feel like I'm being behind.
- 3:46:45[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that's sort of the thing now that the Democrats won if anyone who misgenders me, they're going to come and arrest you.
- 3:46:51[UNKNOWN]: So you have to, if you say I am in so much fucking trouble, they're, they're immediately going to put your hand up.
- 3:46:57[UNKNOWN]: So you've got to be very careful.
- 3:46:58[UNKNOWN]: We're going to have a reverseize, nice, come in and immediately arrest me for this gender and you put me in a FEMA camp.
- 3:47:09[UNKNOWN]: Nice nice instead of ice.
- 3:47:10[UNKNOWN]: That's true.
- 3:47:12[UNKNOWN]: But yes.
- 3:47:12[UNKNOWN]: So anyway, the parapherodancing was great trying to dance off of both teams and then here at the pinned Honda with the Creole at the end of all that.
- 3:47:19[UNKNOWN]: We're a match too.
- 3:47:20[UNKNOWN]: I started going to try to go quick and we went on like a fucking 15 minute thing about parapherod.
- 3:47:25[UNKNOWN]: It's like a cat.
- 3:47:26[UNKNOWN]: Why do people have friends?
- 3:47:27[UNKNOWN]: We have our priorities.
- 3:47:29[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what I feel about losing this bike.
- 3:47:33[UNKNOWN]: Match, but yeah, very enjoyable
- 3:47:37[UNKNOWN]: got DDT is just, they're still so creative with these comedy matches too, and they usually find a way, especially on these big shows to make it feel fresh.
- 3:47:48[UNKNOWN]: I have so much respect for what they're doing.
- 3:47:51[UNKNOWN]: Match number three, a four-way tag match, Junta Mia walking in Daichi Sato, beat the
- 3:48:03[UNKNOWN]: Alps would be so much a cow in Shoda and M.J. Paul in Damis when Sato penned Shoda with the fire thunder in 839.
- 3:48:14[UNKNOWN]: Pretty good.
- 3:48:16[UNKNOWN]: Mason being so much figuring everybody else at times was ridiculous, but they lean into the ridiculous stuff, like when people bounce off of them and stuff.
- 3:48:25[UNKNOWN]: It didn't always think for the most exciting action, but you know, they leaned into it.
- 3:48:28[UNKNOWN]: And then they did a lot of
- 3:48:30[UNKNOWN]: Yep, so I'm gonna try to elbow that ass.
- 3:48:33[UNKNOWN]: It did not go well for him.
- 3:48:35[UNKNOWN]: But the end of it was really fun and everybody just doing spots so that elevated for me.
- 3:48:41[UNKNOWN]: For you in a corner, pretty good match.
- 3:48:43[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:48:44[UNKNOWN]: The best part of this match was when Mason said Nico Nico knee and then hit a knee.
- 3:48:51[UNKNOWN]: I fucking popped for that.
- 3:48:54[UNKNOWN]: It's a love life room for those of you who don't know.
- 3:48:58[UNKNOWN]: Uh, Mason did that or made sure Mason did.
- 3:49:02[UNKNOWN]: Oh, because Nico Nico needs what he think like that's his signature move because he's caught Oh, I didn't know that so I only caught it love live reference.
- 3:49:10[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 3:49:10[UNKNOWN]: He's caught it.
- 3:49:11[UNKNOWN]: That's since like NXT.
- 3:49:12[UNKNOWN]: I think so he was doing love live references and in next I love that
- 3:49:18[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, man.
- 3:49:18[UNKNOWN]: I want to see them do all of his matches in Japan now like I just remember when like seeing coming across the Twitter where you're still in the next day and it had in his Twitter bio like master of a Nico Nico needs.
- 3:49:31[UNKNOWN]: So I was like, okay.
- 3:49:35[UNKNOWN]: uh... match for june cci beat his own child he not a cci with the pintre logo and a lot of ten i think i don't know about it and beat them up very rude yet do you want to do you want to take this one could i somehow forgot right and you know what to say there's not a lot of notes for this uh... i generally go off of like impressions and memories that i have uh... for this one let me to be honest also sometimes i just have the video up let me see if i can give a quick recap here
- 3:50:03[UNKNOWN]: Yep, we're at the part where June Cassai had a bunch of chairs set up on the outside.
- 3:50:08[UNKNOWN]: Guess who took the bump on the chairs?
- 3:50:10[UNKNOWN]: It was...
- 3:50:15[UNKNOWN]: This is fantastic audio.
- 3:50:17[UNKNOWN]: I think I missed when he took the bump.
- 3:50:18[UNKNOWN]: Weird.
- 3:50:20[UNKNOWN]: Oh well.
- 3:50:23[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it was pretty good.
- 3:50:24[UNKNOWN]: I just didn't apparently didn't stand out enough for me to take note when I was watching it and it just didn't.
- 3:50:28[UNKNOWN]: This was the last thing I watched.
- 3:50:29[UNKNOWN]: I was, because I started watching this show live.
- 3:50:32[UNKNOWN]: I went to take a shower during this match and I did not go back to watching until right before we started recording.
- 3:50:37[UNKNOWN]: You mean, I was watching it in the night.
- 3:50:39[UNKNOWN]: No, no, I definitely, I definitely watched it.
- 3:50:43[UNKNOWN]: I was rushing to get through it.
- 3:50:44[UNKNOWN]: But somehow I forgot to take any notes.
- 3:50:46[UNKNOWN]: So the big impression I took away from this match
- 3:50:52[UNKNOWN]: I'm starting to appreciate how Hinata just comes across as a guy who will never be anywhere near anything like a death match.
- 3:51:02[UNKNOWN]: He is just too sweet a boy to do anything like that.
- 3:51:08[UNKNOWN]: It is felt like he, because he continues to be booked as almost Waka-esque kind of loser right bottom of the car.
- 3:51:18[UNKNOWN]: But I feel like he's finding something there.
- 3:51:22[UNKNOWN]: I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but matches like this definitely helped when I thought, I thought there was a chance that this was gonna be the kind of thing where if he tried to match his dad, death match beat for death match beat and tried to beat him with his own move.
- 3:51:39[UNKNOWN]: And I just think that would have been a lot more boring.
- 3:51:42[UNKNOWN]: And while they did do a little bit of that,
- 3:51:45[UNKNOWN]: there was enough of Hennotic here that felt like it was true to Hennotic, the wrestler he's become that I'm I kind of enjoyed it.
- 3:51:58[UNKNOWN]: Then we had, after the match, you know, I thought that you're not as to take it a really good, like, careful promo saying he always wanted to be a wrestler, but he was starting to hate being a wrestler after he hasn't been able to get even a single win.
- 3:52:10[UNKNOWN]: But after facing his dad today, you'd say he truly loves
- 3:52:14[UNKNOWN]: He promised to get bigger and stronger when the KOD title and another single smashers dad this some day and a very good heart felt Promo here and you can see why he's already gotten over the crowd despite yeah again not wanting a single match yet And June gave him juke aside his dad gave him this big thumbs up from the top of the ramp as the flip of them off again That was very cute Yeah, the good level bull loser energy to him if nothing else so yeah
- 3:52:38[UNKNOWN]: Then we had the DDT Extreme Title Match, which was the Scarlet Friendship, the Red Rope of Fate with feelings that accumulate over time.
- 3:52:46[UNKNOWN]: Shoema Katzimata, B. Yukyorano, with a German superlacks in 1642 to make his third defense.
- 3:52:53[UNKNOWN]: So they were connected by a big rope and they had to add weight to this like these fucking, I don't know how to describe this.
- 3:53:02[UNKNOWN]: It's fucking...
- 3:53:04[UNKNOWN]: I don't know the term, but they're like, like, weighted jackets, the best that you wear for cardio workouts to make them more difficult.
- 3:53:13[UNKNOWN]: Right.
- 3:53:14[UNKNOWN]: So the vessel come off every time and they would add more weight so they'd be time when they could just wrestle on and the weights come back on, they'd be even heavier.
- 3:53:20[UNKNOWN]: So it was interesting.
- 3:53:22[UNKNOWN]: It was funny at one point when the rainbows vast was so heavy that he just told him no so the shoot My missile drunk out the top like he was a fucking head super heavyweight that was funny and he looks surprised We needed it to like oh, wow, that's it.
- 3:53:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and then And then they straps on humor's vast for I think the second time and the whole pile of wrestlers both wearing their super heavy vest Just really collapse in the poor breath mat theory and buried them under Bolton.
- 3:53:48[UNKNOWN]: That was funny
- 3:53:50[UNKNOWN]: Um, assume I actually get a month and we use this show.
- 3:53:54[UNKNOWN]: Oh, yeah, why not even a lot of shows to be quite on it.
- 3:53:58[UNKNOWN]: You know what he's very good at it too.
- 3:54:04[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, the, um, the, sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh- sh-
- 3:54:28[UNKNOWN]: Seds are Monday night where the fuck the show was.
- 3:54:31[UNKNOWN]: Seds something like this felt like a very corrican get back for this title, not like a Seumah Hall.
- 3:54:35[UNKNOWN]: And I kind of agree, it didn't quite feel big in that first Seumah Hall extreme pedal match, but certainly creative, three and a half stars, good match.
- 3:54:43[UNKNOWN]: Um, I think I warmed up to the gimmick over time because I thought they did a good job.
- 3:54:47[UNKNOWN]: I would agree.
- 3:54:48[UNKNOWN]: I would agree.
- 3:54:48[UNKNOWN]: I would agree.
- 3:54:50[UNKNOWN]: Um, I would agree.
- 3:54:50[UNKNOWN]: So there's a couple moments where I thought, oh, that's extremely clever.
- 3:54:54[UNKNOWN]: Like when,
- 3:54:59[UNKNOWN]: uh... forced you uh... you key to pin him twice in a row so that he could kick out of it so he could add more way to you keys fest right that was really smart and i haven't thought of that angle um... also uh... this was the gayest thing we saw all week yes hundred percent it's not even close uh... and i think the matches were beautiful for it frankly
- 3:55:29[UNKNOWN]: Next time, from the tag match, Toy and Kaisyate to Kashi, beating Canon and Kumadori, when Toyping Canon with a Frankenstein or 1130.
- 3:55:37[UNKNOWN]: This is what I was like, I was basically trying to stay up to watch this, basically live, because like, you know, Toy is my favorite restaurant with company, and I was like, everybody in the snatch, it was pretty much exactly what I was hoping for.
- 3:55:48[UNKNOWN]: I didn't seem to take a time to know because I was probably feeding by this point.
- 3:55:52[UNKNOWN]: But it was definitely my favorite thing on the show to this point at least.
- 3:55:55[UNKNOWN]: I thought about going notebook, you know, was really fun and action-packed, and they're going three and three quarters.
- 3:56:00[UNKNOWN]: And Toria, in the pen on canon, was a nice way to give him some momentum heading into his big universal title shot against the Gucci.
- 3:56:06[UNKNOWN]: So, very good match.
- 3:56:08[UNKNOWN]: Enjoy that.
- 3:56:09[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I enjoyed a lot too.
- 3:56:12[UNKNOWN]: I think Tori kind of sticks out here because he's both so much smaller, but he's also very expressive, which does a lot for his selling.
- 3:56:20[UNKNOWN]: So, getting thrown around here by
- 3:56:25[UNKNOWN]: and also Kumadori doing his stick, which is always incredibly entertaining.
- 3:56:31[UNKNOWN]: Everything about this match really worked for me.
- 3:56:33[UNKNOWN]: I kind of loved it.
- 3:56:36[UNKNOWN]: Then we had Yukino's final match as a D.E.T.
- 3:56:39[UNKNOWN]: wrestler, Yukino Naya beat him with the world's best backdrop in 1719.
- 3:56:44[UNKNOWN]: I got the mention, the extreme title match after that match, Naomi Oshimura came out to challenge, which I was like fist bumping for the accident.
- 3:56:51[UNKNOWN]: I feel like Yoshimura doesn't get nearly enough to do, for how good he is.
- 3:56:54[UNKNOWN]: And he's going to challenge.
- 3:56:55[UNKNOWN]: It looks like that's going to be on December 9th, so two cork and not the next cork and the following show.
- 3:57:01[UNKNOWN]: Oh, be the last one.
- 3:57:02[UNKNOWN]: Wait.
- 3:57:04[UNKNOWN]: They also announced some kind of video package for return of DNA, which ends up being like a tough enough style shell, I guess, DNA R, whether they're going to do like a YouTube documentary, whether they'll show wrestlers from a started training with like open tryouts or something.
- 3:57:17[UNKNOWN]: So I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't.
- 3:57:20[UNKNOWN]: Uh, sending out roles influencing wrestling widely, yet again, they never get enough credit.
- 3:57:27[UNKNOWN]: So anyway, back to Eno and Naya, this again was Eno's last match in DDT, they definitely went hard on each other at the start, first with shoulder blocks, then including a flying going off the apron, and then Eno just like DDT and Naya on their chair on the floor.
- 3:57:43[UNKNOWN]: Unfortunately, I don't think they had enough here to fill 17 minutes, it was a little too, it just paced a little too slowly for me, wasn't bad or anything, it just was kind of boring
- 3:57:56[UNKNOWN]: But then I thought the actual finish, the last back drop from Naya was a bit flat.
- 3:58:01[UNKNOWN]: So overall in the being like gentleman's triana, it was fine.
- 3:58:04[UNKNOWN]: Just didn't do a whole lot for me.
- 3:58:06[UNKNOWN]: I've never, I've never been a big UK, you know, fan though.
- 3:58:08[UNKNOWN]: So take, and you know, take that with that, right?
- 3:58:11[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, maybe that's the key difference here is I do love UK, you know.
- 3:58:17[UNKNOWN]: And I also like Naya as well.
- 3:58:20[UNKNOWN]: He's not consistent, but I generally find that when he gets to
- 3:58:26[UNKNOWN]: put in a good performance, he's still really compelling as a big guy.
- 3:58:33[UNKNOWN]: I, so I like this probably a bit more than you did, but I guess the other big thing I took away from this was, I didn't take it for granted that Eno was gonna go out of his back.
- 3:58:49[UNKNOWN]: I was kind of glad to see that.
- 3:58:51[UNKNOWN]: And of course, that led to one of the development
- 3:58:57[UNKNOWN]: Then we had the KOD tag in titles, Takashi Masada, and Uyoko Roku, reading Hidekiya Katanina Luzhin, when Masada pinned a lusium with the Masada.
- 3:59:07[UNKNOWN]: No, Shikara Kobu Muki Muki, 1130, to make their second defense for pale youth.
- 3:59:13[UNKNOWN]: Sorry, what was that again?
- 3:59:15[UNKNOWN]: The Masada, no Chikara Kobu Muki Muki.
- 3:59:18[UNKNOWN]: Did he consult the sack before naming that move?
- 3:59:21[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, maybe.
- 3:59:23[UNKNOWN]: I mean, Masada Chikara is like, just Masada's power.
- 3:59:28[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, Koba, Kobu, Mookie, Mookie is, though.
- 3:59:31[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:59:31[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 3:59:33[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, weird early where illusion used to chair-shot in Kuroku, but then Okatani basically pulled him aside and told him to stop.
- 3:59:43[UNKNOWN]: I don't know what the was up with that, but it didn't really go anywhere.
- 3:59:44[UNKNOWN]: That's the match either, but it was interesting.
- 3:59:48[UNKNOWN]: some kind of something I was missing context for.
- 3:59:52[UNKNOWN]: But Ogotani then hit this fucking crazy running crucifix drier thing that I can't even really describe except it wasn't like a fucking kill them.
- 4:00:01[UNKNOWN]: And then Kuroku, though, came back with this great spitting DDT, that left both guys down.
- 4:00:05[UNKNOWN]: I was going to get to the five minute call and just I don't know.
- 4:00:07[UNKNOWN]: They packed so much great back more of action to this.
- 4:00:10[UNKNOWN]: even after that sequence.
- 4:00:11[UNKNOWN]: It's a very fast-paced match.
- 4:00:13[UNKNOWN]: Everything was very well executed.
- 4:00:15[UNKNOWN]: Allusion and the dropping port to Keshie, to Keshie, under was neck up the top rope with this flipping sunset foot powerbomb thing, that web nasty, but then to Keshie got his knees up when allusion tried to talk of the swan ton, and he was ultimately able to put allusion away not long after that.
- 4:00:32[UNKNOWN]: Awesome tag team sprint match here.
- 4:00:33[UNKNOWN]: Easy four stars for me.
- 4:00:35[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I thought this was terrific as well, especially the closing stretch with allusion and
- 4:00:42[UNKNOWN]: Afterwards, Shinshiro Takagi seemed hit, he came out the challenge, they pointed out he did not have a partner, so Takagi was just like, well, my partner will be X, and I won't reveal who it is until my the music hits the day of the match, so that will happen November 29th at Korkin, so what's the wait and see who the fuck this partner is for the Vice President of the company now, I think.
- 4:01:04[UNKNOWN]: Uh, this was an old young DDT match, by the way.
- 4:01:07[UNKNOWN]: Um, so you have to feel very, very good about where the next generation of that company is right now.
- 4:01:15[UNKNOWN]: There we had a special three-way match, Konozuki Takeshita, notably, a long-and-sexy Virginia working this show instead of a power struggle, not setting up anything.
- 4:01:24[UNKNOWN]: We're rest looking at them in either case actually.
- 4:01:28[UNKNOWN]: Takeshita defeated Dan Shoku Dino and Daisuke Sasaki, when he pinned Sasaki with the raging fire in 1704.
- 4:01:35[UNKNOWN]: Uh, first of all, Dino got reversed by Sasaki while doing his typical thrusting.
- 4:01:41[UNKNOWN]: There's very early in the match.
- 4:01:43[UNKNOWN]: And Sasaki then mounted him and slapped his ass instead, until to catch you to hit him with a grounded dropkick.
- 4:01:49[UNKNOWN]: And that led to the coat of the night from one valley on Akin English commentary, which was, he was just like, is this BDSM?
- 4:01:56[UNKNOWN]: But the way he delivered that line, you told me about the line before I even saw the match, but the way he delivered it was fucking perfect, I was like, okay, it was very, very well-timed.
- 4:02:06[UNKNOWN]: I'll talk to you, uh, you could tell sometimes feels bad about what he's contributing to the commentary, and I think he said at one point,
- 4:02:15[UNKNOWN]: Sorry, guys, you're not getting professional commentary here.
- 4:02:18[UNKNOWN]: And I got to say, I kind of love that their vibe is more just two dudes on a couch who are watching the match with you.
- 4:02:25[UNKNOWN]: I actually love where they are in Haku, Mr. Haku, and Bollyanna, Oki together.
- 4:02:30[UNKNOWN]: It's good stuff.
- 4:02:32[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I sometimes when people get annoyed by Bollyanna Oki, but I don't really get it because I think- When he's excited, he has a hard time expressing that, much in an articulate way beyond just making noises.
- 4:02:45[UNKNOWN]: which can't get annoying and can't attract another man.
- 4:02:50[UNKNOWN]: I don't think it's that.
- 4:02:51[UNKNOWN]: In the next match, they both, they did a lot in the Zack, and I don't think I thought it was awesome in that match.
- 4:02:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that was clearly like two professionals who have been here a long time being wild by masters.
- 4:03:02[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, we should get to that later.
- 4:03:04[UNKNOWN]: Are you going to answer the questions I want to answer?
- 4:03:07[UNKNOWN]: Is it BDSM?
- 4:03:08[UNKNOWN]: I wouldn't know.
- 4:03:11[UNKNOWN]: Are you implying I would know?
- 4:03:13[UNKNOWN]: Why would I imply that?
- 4:03:15[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
- 4:03:16[UNKNOWN]: I'm glad.
- 4:03:16[UNKNOWN]: Glad nothing is being implied or inferred.
- 4:03:21[UNKNOWN]: I think everyone probably knows how they feel listening to this podcast about many things, but they probably know how they feel about watching Dino matches by now.
- 4:03:32[UNKNOWN]: There were some inventive spots here about like when Takeshida suddenly turned a typical Dino, like rear thrust from a standing position into a double-driven suit flex, Sasaki then did a big elbow drop all the way from the top rope to the floor on both Takeshida and Dino with Takeshida sitting on a chair and Dino sitting in his lap that also was very interesting looking.
- 4:03:54[UNKNOWN]: Do you know try to make good on his promise to go full naked when he had Sasaki in a triangle
- 4:04:01[UNKNOWN]: when I'm in a triangle.
- 4:04:03[UNKNOWN]: Matsuri tried to save the day with a towel, the referee, even as Dino was actively stripping.
- 4:04:08[UNKNOWN]: But Sasaki pulls him out of the ring of the floor.
- 4:04:10[UNKNOWN]: He then addresses Dino and says, he's not going to let him do this alone.
- 4:04:13[UNKNOWN]: He's also ready to go beyond new to the, he starts stripping too.
- 4:04:17[UNKNOWN]: The Kessia tries to get between the two of them.
- 4:04:19[UNKNOWN]: And the image of like Sasaki waddling with his pants down, after getting whipped in the ropes, then some were also landing a drop kick anyway, was something else.
- 4:04:26[UNKNOWN]: The other thing about it is that beyond new to the for him,
- 4:04:30[UNKNOWN]: Ultimately, he just took a shirt off.
- 4:04:33[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:04:34[UNKNOWN]: Right, got his pants down.
- 4:04:35[UNKNOWN]: He got his pants down.
- 4:04:37[UNKNOWN]: Um, it went to a pretty good close stretch from there and to catch the uses on kiss attack on Dino and he gave this This he gave to socket the raging fire into Dino's exposed ass and pinned them from there.
- 4:04:47[UNKNOWN]: I'll say three and a half of the whole thing was good I would not recommend it to anyone who doesn't already know they like Dino So you know, honestly the best part of the match for me was just Dino flesh in the audience and his interests That was really funny
- 4:05:06[UNKNOWN]: Oh, the number of women who had their hand up for Dino, come on, you know, he's not going to answer.
- 4:05:13[UNKNOWN]: They can dream, okay?
- 4:05:15[UNKNOWN]: I guess.
- 4:05:16[UNKNOWN]: Dream of his soft, soft lips.
- 4:05:20[UNKNOWN]: Unlike the women of Japan, I have experienced it.
- 4:05:23[UNKNOWN]: So, you know, only one of us on this podcast can say that and it's me.
- 4:05:30[UNKNOWN]: I honestly barely remember what it was like to be on a show I got to get my hand up a gun and get get another kiss when I'm when I go to the show on the 27th or just summer 27th I'm in semi-main event Zack Saber junior be shinny ayoki with with the I've accidentally run to Windsor
- 4:05:51[UNKNOWN]: 1727, this is a match that's hard for me to do any kind of detail play by play for, thank God, because we're running long anyway.
- 4:05:58[UNKNOWN]: But since so much of that, it's just the two of them rolling around the bat doing like constant cradles and submission reversals and such, but it all looks fantastic.
- 4:06:07[UNKNOWN]: I mean, it's amazingly great.
- 4:06:10[UNKNOWN]: Um, and then when they do that for so long, and then Aoki suddenly does a fucking toe-based U.S. see that to the floor, followed by a fucking knee drop on the top back of the ring, it just makes that even better, right?
- 4:06:21[UNKNOWN]: Because you've been watching them do all this super smooth Matt wrestling, and all of a sudden they're just doing fucking dives and shit and just like, okay, let's let's fucking go.
- 4:06:28[UNKNOWN]: Um, and again, this is the town of Hashi Suzuki match from years ago all over again, right?
- 4:06:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:06:36[UNKNOWN]: where like the contrast helped it.
- 4:06:39[UNKNOWN]: And the announcers really add a lot to it too, just yelling at times as Zach eventually got aoki all tied up towards the finish for he submitted.
- 4:06:48[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, this was four and a half stars.
- 4:06:51[UNKNOWN]: My favorite match band and take place on either New Japan or DET shows in November, third, lived up to the hype.
- 4:06:56[UNKNOWN]: I would say put Charlie Kitsu to touch ahead of it, but there was a lot of different matches anyway.
- 4:07:01[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, four and a half star match.
- 4:07:02[UNKNOWN]: Awesome fucking man.
- 4:07:03[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, Terrific match, and on top of that,
- 4:07:06[UNKNOWN]: Further proof for that famous saying of ZSJ, that technical wrestling in front of Americans is like reading Shakespeare to a dog.
- 4:07:17[UNKNOWN]: You could tell that this audience, however, extremely appreciated the match, and also that their excitement built with the match as well, they were paying such close attention, and it just added another layer to the whole thing.
- 4:07:36[UNKNOWN]: Um, I wish I had more expertise in, uh, amateur or professional wrestling, like the technical details of it, to be able to fully appreciate what I'm seeing here, but I can tell when there's masters at work, you know, I can appreciate that for sure.
- 4:07:53[UNKNOWN]: And that's still, uh, made the match dramatic.
- 4:07:58[UNKNOWN]: Um, so great stuff all around, um, yeah, probably my favorite match on the show as well.
- 4:08:08[UNKNOWN]: Made event Mal beat Chris Brooks by Countout in 3342 to make his six to feds.
- 4:08:14[UNKNOWN]: This kind of surprised me, kind of, I thought Brooks was the one that I don't hear, but it's especially with the right tape and squeezing in these Mal defenses, but he did make his six to feds.
- 4:08:23[UNKNOWN]: So he suddenly appeared on top of the entrance structure on the stage during Brooks's entrance,
- 4:08:28[UNKNOWN]: He booms on, mooms sold it off the whole unit, certainly a unique way to start.
- 4:08:33[UNKNOWN]: The pre-match for all, I mean, this match has an official runtime of 3342, but the pre-match for all went on for quite a while, you know, without a bell.
- 4:08:42[UNKNOWN]: We were up at the boxes and Brooks was spraying a fire extinguisher and finally referee about so we had enough He grabbed the bolt by the ears and literally dragged him to the ring.
- 4:08:50[UNKNOWN]: That was funny and then the bell did finally rang But they're shooting right back in the crowd though We tried to do a really really really big rubber bands spot Brooks had his friends up in the second deck of the building holding on the rubber band Unfortunately the rubber band blew the spot as it broke off before Brooks would quite reach mal He was like a full he was like a few feet away.
- 4:09:10[UNKNOWN]: I've most at that point
- 4:09:12[UNKNOWN]: And the crowd was training, you know, MoEK, you know, one more time try again, I guess, and Brooks went back for what was left for the rubber band, which was missing the entire orange part at the end, but it was still quite long.
- 4:09:22[UNKNOWN]: And we dig and dig, get our rubber band from the second deck snap, what I'm sure was not pleasant for anyone involved.
- 4:09:28[UNKNOWN]: Oh, this is an uncommon theory, but you could hear each of the knots hit mouse face and succession.
- 4:09:37[UNKNOWN]: They, at this point, I kind of want them to take it back to the ring, because it was like, okay, they were just wandering around the building.
- 4:09:42[UNKNOWN]: But they didn't pull off a dramatic dream mobio on the elevated part of the stage with Mal rode into trucks at a very slow, and understandably, a very slow speed.
- 4:09:51[UNKNOWN]: Uh, referee about two we got booed by the crowd for trying to keep them.
- 4:09:55[UNKNOWN]: The two of them leaving the ring yet again, right?
- 4:09:56[UNKNOWN]: Where they got back there, but that got cheers for me.
- 4:09:59[UNKNOWN]: My four of you got bummed for after that, but they stayed in the ring.
- 4:10:02[UNKNOWN]: They pulled out the plastic everywhere boxes.
- 4:10:04[UNKNOWN]: They broke them over each other and slammed each other through them, etc.
- 4:10:08[UNKNOWN]: A second ref came in and also got bumped.
- 4:10:10[UNKNOWN]: That led to all sorts of run ends, including by Dr. Cove, who is quickly a master's at Xavier Junior, then the lights went out during the near fall.
- 4:10:20[UNKNOWN]: leading to takers music heading and Yoshi Hiko being on the ring when the life came back on.
- 4:10:26[UNKNOWN]: And one of the, it was not to say, oh, that was really funny.
- 4:10:30[UNKNOWN]: Like I'm fucking throwback to fucking bash the B-96.
- 4:10:34[UNKNOWN]: Yoshi, you go first, took out the ref again, then he nailed Brooks.
- 4:10:40[UNKNOWN]: He went face to face for Zack and he gave Zack one single slap, Zack bowed Yoshi, he goes left.
- 4:10:46[UNKNOWN]: That was incredibly funny.
- 4:10:49[UNKNOWN]: And Yoshi go choke slam Brooks before he pulled off his DDT shirt to reveal a referee shirt.
- 4:10:56[UNKNOWN]: I was like, oh my god, I'm fucking dying at this point.
- 4:11:00[UNKNOWN]: Refuge, like this was like, again, DDT and it's best like parody American wrestling best where it's like, we're getting so much a score of here.
- 4:11:07[UNKNOWN]: And refuge, he go then fast counted for Mao and slow count of a Brooks for the course each wrestler doing the count themselves.
- 4:11:13[UNKNOWN]: I'm fucking dying at this point.
- 4:11:16[UNKNOWN]: Uh, then both competitors as well as Gophie Hiko went through a table, Gophie go go through it with both stacked up there, um, and this is a group we need landed to, I thought it was a great team of fucking magic trick.
- 4:11:29[UNKNOWN]: I have no idea how they did that.
- 4:11:32[UNKNOWN]: I know that was crazy.
- 4:11:33[UNKNOWN]: Um, but I would say just as I was starting to be like, okay, I'm getting a little sick of the doll now.
- 4:11:38[UNKNOWN]: she got left and they went into a really great clothing stretch.
- 4:11:40[UNKNOWN]: So they they they timed it really well.
- 4:11:44[UNKNOWN]: Some very, very close near falls here.
- 4:11:47[UNKNOWN]: Whether on some really nice flash pins like the Praying Manus Bomb from Brux or this huge running Shotaia show tie prompt, Shotaia, I love the palm strike that I used to do.
- 4:11:57[UNKNOWN]: From Mao.
- 4:12:00[UNKNOWN]: The only problem.
- 4:12:02[UNKNOWN]: I think they outthought themselves the actual finish, I thought, and they're looking quite stupid.
- 4:12:07[UNKNOWN]: So, Brooks ended up having to maneuver himself in the position for Mao to use him as a springboard to jump back and learn and beat the 20 count when he clearly could just rolled in himself, and instead, so yeah, that didn't really work, and I had to take some points off for that.
- 4:12:23[UNKNOWN]: It's a weird, very long match, but one where I think other than the finish, I really enjoyed it.
- 4:12:29[UNKNOWN]: So I was four stars on it.
- 4:12:31[UNKNOWN]: Four stars five.
- 4:12:32[UNKNOWN]: What this really reminded me of is the DDT street matches, the rojo matches.
- 4:12:39[UNKNOWN]: Partly because for the first half of the match in quotes, you basically get a tour of Riga Goku as part of it.
- 4:12:49[UNKNOWN]: And there's almost a energy of any kind of a false count anywhere for a lot of the match.
- 4:12:55[UNKNOWN]: They were very creative too when they're outside brawling.
- 4:12:58[UNKNOWN]: I know we've gone over and over again about being tired with the outside brawling.
- 4:13:03[UNKNOWN]: Going into the crowds of this extent for Rigo, who, like, nobody else does that.
- 4:13:07[UNKNOWN]: They're way up in the boxes for most of the brawling.
- 4:13:12[UNKNOWN]: So it's fun because I also thought, wait, I'm pretty sure I recognized where I sat for DreamCleanDum at one point.
- 4:13:18[UNKNOWN]: Um, the, uh, then kind of, going through the refs was funny, going through the different spots with the plastic boxes, um, obviously I think Yoshihiko and, uh, that whole stretch was the highlight of the entire show, really, um, definitely my favorite thing that I think
- 4:13:41[UNKNOWN]: distilled the appeal of DDT down to its absolute essence.
- 4:13:46[UNKNOWN]: Outside of a disappointing ending where I could see what they were going for, but it just was not convincing at all in broke the illusion.
- 4:13:54[UNKNOWN]: It's really good stuff.
- 4:13:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I really enjoyed this match.
- 4:14:02[UNKNOWN]: Uh, so yeah, I enjoyed a lot to use have to be willing to sit through.
- 4:14:06[UNKNOWN]: I've somehow actually I would recommend somebody without knowing anything about the wrestling tastes.
- 4:14:10[UNKNOWN]: Like you have to be willing to sit through some overly long crowd, brawling and also not be one of these people who like just goes crazy if they see Yoshi you go, but I are not watching DDT.
- 4:14:21[UNKNOWN]: If you are open to the DDT, check this batch out.
- 4:14:24[UNKNOWN]: I think you'll get the whole format.
- 4:14:26[UNKNOWN]: I'm not going to say who it was.
- 4:14:27[UNKNOWN]: There was a prominent wrestling punted who I recommend the DDT tag match to.
- 4:14:33[UNKNOWN]: That I thought was about as standard of a match as you could get.
- 4:14:37[UNKNOWN]: But it was a great tag match.
- 4:14:38[UNKNOWN]: It was from Peter Panelast here.
- 4:14:40[UNKNOWN]: It was like, I think it was like involved jacks over junior and in Chris Brooks and like, I can't remember what else was in it.
- 4:14:46[UNKNOWN]: It was like a match I went either four and a quarter, four and a half on.
- 4:14:48[UNKNOWN]: and they hated it because there was a two-second spot at the doll with boom boom and like I can't help you.
- 4:14:56[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, this is a poor person.
- 4:14:57[UNKNOWN]: It's not strong enough for DDT.
- 4:14:59[UNKNOWN]: I'm sorry to say.
- 4:15:00[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:15:02[UNKNOWN]: Anyway, this show I thought was really good.
- 4:15:04[UNKNOWN]: I mean, I was like, as people heard in the correct interview, I was not that excited for this show on paper, and I thought it over delivered to anything.
- 4:15:11[UNKNOWN]: I mean, you know, you have two matches, two high and Novak matches for me in the main event in the semi-main, and some comedy stuff I really liked.
- 4:15:19[UNKNOWN]: Another tag match I was excited for that almost went, Novak on, and actually not three Novak matches, I think Novak on the tag title match.
- 4:15:26[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, you know, just a lot of good stuff up and down the show, classic DDG show, the extra what there's, there's some really good wrestling and it's a really good comedy.
- 4:15:33[UNKNOWN]: So what else could you ask for?
- 4:15:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, and again, the DDT is so good at these big shows that go a long time, but they don't feel it because there's so much variety in the different kinds of matches that you're going to watch and a lot of the matches just go by quickly.
- 4:15:46[UNKNOWN]: You don't have much of a chance to be bored as long as you're open to the
- 4:15:55[UNKNOWN]: That's true, very, very true.
- 4:15:57[UNKNOWN]: I want to use this quickly to talk about Tokyo jerseys and the sister promotion.
- 4:16:02[UNKNOWN]: They have a cork and show coming up that we're going to talk about in a few days on Sunday the 8th that we're going to talk about on next week's episode, or I'm going to talk about at least.
- 4:16:09[UNKNOWN]: And this show is interesting.
- 4:16:11[UNKNOWN]: I mean, you have Ukiyari, again, Shoko Nakajima for the Princess of Princess title.
- 4:16:15[UNKNOWN]: You have Raku and Pahara Juku, challenging for the princess tag titles
- 4:16:24[UNKNOWN]: the team of Yuki I don't have a college hero.
- 4:16:27[UNKNOWN]: I kind of love that looking because it's like no one thinks the champions ever lose their first defense, right?
- 4:16:33[UNKNOWN]: So they'd be it's kind of genius to put the fucking comedy team in there anyway, you know.
- 4:16:39[UNKNOWN]: Let's see what you're saying.
- 4:16:40[UNKNOWN]: So like, why not use that to let them do something different, right?
- 4:16:44[UNKNOWN]: If I like that a lot actually.
- 4:16:46[UNKNOWN]: Also, we have Susan Mavres, who did a comedy for the International Princess title.
- 4:16:51[UNKNOWN]: What if we didn't talk about the show, I watched the last Tokyo Jochie show from KFC Hall, which is not really review-worthy, just kind of like a little generic build-up show.
- 4:17:01[UNKNOWN]: But there was some stuff when Susan Mavres got in there and you could see like she has like a, at least an inch, maybe two inches on her.
- 4:17:09[UNKNOWN]: And it's like, what, Susan makes the bigger wrestler.
- 4:17:12[UNKNOWN]: They did a lot of fast pay stuff, but they did a lot of fast pay stuff together.
- 4:17:16[UNKNOWN]: I'm sure the match would be great, but I want to see Susan made bully this wrestler.
- 4:17:19[UNKNOWN]: I want to see Susan made bully.
- 4:17:21[UNKNOWN]: We need bully B.
- 4:17:23[UNKNOWN]: That's what I want to say.
- 4:17:24[UNKNOWN]: I want to do that folks.
- 4:17:25[UNKNOWN]: John endorses bullying.
- 4:17:27[UNKNOWN]: I do industrially have tiny children.
- 4:17:30[UNKNOWN]: especially if cute women do it.
- 4:17:32[UNKNOWN]: So I do endorse bullying by cute women.
- 4:17:35[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, Susan May, who did to comey, very excited for that match.
- 4:17:39[UNKNOWN]: We have you, you can comey Fuku and Nagisa Nozaki making, I believe her joke, your joke, your debut against Alice
- 4:17:54[UNKNOWN]: I don't know when I keep finding people.
- 4:17:56[UNKNOWN]: You and Shiori Futaba.
- 4:17:58[UNKNOWN]: I think you have an actual name now.
- 4:17:59[UNKNOWN]: What the fuck do they say is?
- 4:18:01[UNKNOWN]: I don't know, it doesn't really matter.
- 4:18:02[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, it's two new Davies, the important thing.
- 4:18:06[UNKNOWN]: Lots of the finals in the next iteration tournament, Renko Natsu against Momo Sato, can the sheep overcome the power of, I lost track of my own joke.
- 4:18:16[UNKNOWN]: Can the sheep, the fancy sheep, overcome the power being well connected?
- 4:18:23[UNKNOWN]: Because of course, nepotism.
- 4:18:24[UNKNOWN]: That was where I was looking for for my joke.
- 4:18:25[UNKNOWN]: Can the fancy sheep overcome the power of nepotism?
- 4:18:28[UNKNOWN]: We'll find out.
- 4:18:31[UNKNOWN]: Uh, yeah.
- 4:18:31[UNKNOWN]: You were looking for the name of the other rookie?
- 4:18:34[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:18:35[UNKNOWN]: She ory futaba.
- 4:18:37[UNKNOWN]: No, that's the one I had, the one I didn't have is you.
- 4:18:39[UNKNOWN]: Oh, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you
- 4:19:07[UNKNOWN]: And the only other match I've got to mention is a Piper B-Sau, and she knows Suzuki against Mahiro Kiryu and Kira Summer.
- 4:19:14[UNKNOWN]: Is, what's your name now you're on the show?
- 4:19:17[UNKNOWN]: Where the fuck is, maybe she has a player or something?
- 4:19:21[UNKNOWN]: Like where the hell is he going to worry?
- 4:19:23[UNKNOWN]: Anyway.
- 4:19:24[UNKNOWN]: Uh, not like this hard.
- 4:19:27[UNKNOWN]: I guess not not the deepest yoga Joshy card ever seen, but I think both the title matches are exciting and you know, I think they really have not missed a core kid like all year.
- 4:19:38[UNKNOWN]: So I'm not going to bet against them now.
- 4:19:40[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, they have a lot of momentum too.
- 4:19:43[UNKNOWN]: So now do you think Shoko Nakajima wins this one?
- 4:19:50[UNKNOWN]: I think she could.
- 4:19:51[UNKNOWN]: I think she could.
- 4:19:53[UNKNOWN]: So I think she could.
- 4:19:54[UNKNOWN]: And then they make the annual hypermissile versus Shoko match for the title at Clark and Hall.
- 4:20:02[UNKNOWN]: You could do that.
- 4:20:03[UNKNOWN]: I still have a weird feeling that the Corrigan main is Yuki versus Rikotatsu.
- 4:20:10[UNKNOWN]: I think Rikotatsu might be the one who's beating her.
- 4:20:16[UNKNOWN]: because he never had a her I feel like I feel like retorts him he's being psyched down I think she's I don't know she just went to the final level of the tour I feel like she could be it I feel like they I feel like she's due for another rain I don't know maybe it's just me but I feel like she's due for another rain and guess we'll say uh he got for the next generation tournament
- 4:20:42[UNKNOWN]: I do think we're going to win.
- 4:20:43[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I think we're going to win too.
- 4:20:44[UNKNOWN]: But I'm really impressed already with Momo Sato.
- 4:20:47[UNKNOWN]: So yeah, she looks good so far.
- 4:20:51[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, see that's why you beat up your mom for practice as a wrestler.
- 4:20:57[UNKNOWN]: It's working for her and Dichy.
- 4:20:59[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I mean, Dichy's even better.
- 4:21:02[UNKNOWN]: He's incredible.
- 4:21:03[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:21:03[UNKNOWN]: I love that guy.
- 4:21:04[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:21:06[UNKNOWN]: Well, I mean, yeah, I mean, she has much more experience too, so I'm excited.
- 4:21:10[UNKNOWN]: Alright folks, we can wrap things up here.
- 4:21:12[UNKNOWN]: What's our sickle word of there's so many options?
- 4:21:15[UNKNOWN]: I feel like we could do a political reference, we could do.
- 4:21:18[UNKNOWN]: Let's just do power power, how about that?
- 4:21:20[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, there we go.
- 4:21:22[UNKNOWN]: power powers your sickle word the episode in order to tell me that you're a true sickle.
- 4:21:27[UNKNOWN]: Also, I should have plugged this all the way back to the episode, but there is still time for you to sign up for the wrestling Omakase, your end review slash, uh, wrestling in the preview exam again.
- 4:21:39[UNKNOWN]: So you haven't till November 15th.

- 4:24:11[UNKNOWN]: Like, if I gave you a hand, it'll get really give it away.
- 4:24:14[UNKNOWN]: Well, it's one of the ones that don't really watch is, I'm guessing, is it all Japan?
- 4:24:19[UNKNOWN]: No, it's a realism.
- 4:24:20[UNKNOWN]: I think it's not really the one I told you to put on there.
- 4:24:24[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 4:24:25[UNKNOWN]: So, it's a realism as a five.
- 4:24:30[UNKNOWN]: That's good.
- 4:24:31[UNKNOWN]: That's good.
- 4:24:31[UNKNOWN]: Because this is also turned into a year in review show as well.
- 4:24:35[UNKNOWN]: I think seriism deserves its flowers.
- 4:24:38[UNKNOWN]: So yeah exactly.
- 4:24:41[UNKNOWN]: I folks.
- 4:24:42[UNKNOWN]: So anything you want to plug out about that?
- 4:24:45[UNKNOWN]: Believe it or not.
- 4:24:46[UNKNOWN]: Yes, I never usually have something to plug because this is about the only thing I do that's published for people to consume.
- 4:25:00[UNKNOWN]: to cover Tai Chi's old school, pro wrestling to do in a wrestling show, produce wrestling show at his old school.
- 4:25:12[UNKNOWN]: It's a pretty fun watch.
- 4:25:13[UNKNOWN]: Joel and I had a really fun discussion and the Super J cast is a really great podcast.
- 4:25:21[UNKNOWN]: I was happy to guess for them and I'll probably be doing it again soon.
- 4:25:30[UNKNOWN]: So it caused, I believe, $10 a month.
- 4:25:33[UNKNOWN]: It's well worth it, especially around tournament season.
- 4:25:37[UNKNOWN]: When they do very, very sharp daily coverage, their G1 coverage, especially I thought, was terrific stuff.
- 4:25:47[UNKNOWN]: That's pretty much it for me.
- 4:25:51[UNKNOWN]: Alright folks, so next week, I'll be back on here with my fellow John John Bivens as we'll cover a dollar corrican November 9th.
