Toni Storm winning the women's Owen felt like the biggest no brainer to establish her as a big deal in the division. Baker eliminating her in an underwhelming match was not what she needed at all
If Jim actually watched Stardom, I think he'd like Giulia, Utami, AZM and others. He wouldn't like everyone, but he'd like more than he probably thinks.
I don't know if it's his dislike of Omega or just the schtick (both?) that blinds some of his better judgement.
Unfortunate.
CM Punk and Hangman Page is a genuine "either could win" situation and I'm happy to just sit back and enjoy an unpredictable world title match instead of feeling the need to debate why one party should win.
Bray Wyatt getting a desperate Triple H to pay him a lot of money, running stupid LARP videos about a rabbit for months, wrestling one singular match and dipping out before Mania has got to be one of the funniest runs in wrestling history
AEWs women's division has a Britt Baker sized problem. She's the most pushed and most important woman in the division to the detriment of others and her matches get worse as time goes on
The sooner most people on here realise that neither WWE or AEW will give you the women's wrestling fix you want, the better.
Stop banging your head against a wall and watch women's promotions
Bryan and Dave saying RUSH is banned from Forbidden Door and while this will cause a day of discussions. It is likely down to him openly supporting the guy charged with femicide against Stephanie Vaquer
For anyone that's blocked by Stardom's English twitter here's the subtitled Tam promo from earlier today.
It's a great promo to hype up her vs Giulia at Yokohama
Thread of the legends wrestling on the Stardom PPV on August 19.
Who are they, why should you care, recs where possible, let's dive into how crazy this show is
Imagine working all your life to be a world champion in the WWE, getting there, booker leaves you off the card for the second biggest show of the year, and you have to fly out there anyway to step on fans instead😭😭😭😭😭😭
Nothing against the OP but this feels like as good a post as any to say that point scoring over who's least problematic in a business like pro wrestling is going to get you burned and leave you upset
It seems AEW is not interested in Giulia, because she stiffed Willow so bad in their match that she had to miss a match in the Owen and showed no concern afterwards and due to the fact that the Ice Ribbon Joshi in AEW (Shida & Emi) are not fond of her due to how she left IR.
Momo Kohgo, a lower card pin eater in Stardom had a great match on a new japan show. People don't understand the depth some of these joshi groups have lol
If DDT/TJPW sending their best wrestlers to aew leads to nothing but AEWs fanbase pressuring Khan to poach DDT/TJPWs finest then I see no benefit to the relationship for the Cyberfight companies
Once Miro dropped it the title went down the toilet. The stop/start stuff with Sammy is nonsensical and idk why you'd even put it on Scorpio if you're not going to have a guy the fans actually like beat home
Stardom fans are very patient with the company but Stardom World constantly being like 2 weeks behind for about a month now is pretty ridiculous.
They took away pre match promos and we were OK with because it could speed up uploads, but now we get neither!
Wrestlers have access to more tape than ever and instead of learning and getting better they spend their time trying to pop twitter and make meta jabs in promos. Damn near turns me into a Cornette freak 😭
We need to investigate why so many wrestling fans hate women. These dudes will nit-pick a clip of women's wrestling to no end but "suspending disbelief" when men stand around for 10 seconds waiting for someone to set up a move
Kairi Sane. Not just as a joshi fan (I wasn't even a stardom fan when she was signed) but the pirate stuff should've made her a huge babyface that kids loved and bought tonnes of merch for
of all the unfuck-upable mega stars that wwe have fucked up due to their horrible incompetence, which is the one that personally pisses you off the most? for me it’s probably awesome kong
Saya Kamitani: “I don't need QQ anymore. Utami Hayashishita betrayed Stardom and abandoned me. This is the natural result.”

Jack Perry altered wrestling forever and this by just saying "Go cry me a river"
It led to Punk getting fired, returning to WWE and Rock/Reigns happening
She paved the way for many boys to turn into men
She was the reason my balls were vibrating
When you say generational beauty in this industry there’s only one woman
I've heard Jim talk about genuine joshi legends, women who drew money and represent the wrestling he supposedly likes and he treated them with disdain because he's a sexist, racist piece of shit and if I spoke about him honeslty I'd get suspended
Stardom wrestler Unagi Sayaka is currently involved in feuds with Haruka Umesaki of Diana, Yuna Manasa of GanPro, ALL of COLOR's, Akane Fujita from Prominence and Maria/Nagayo from Marvelous.
She is the Big Egg
I cannot imagine how much harder being a joshi fan will be if twitter does break. This app is how basically every company updates people on their plans 😭
I LOVE women's wrestling. This isn't a good example at all. It's kinda like the Idol industry: Young, attractive women exploited for the entertainment and to be the eye candy of much older men. That's a pretty common situation in Japan, and you can see how almost everyone you can
Ok on the Marigold asking for 13-30 year old trainee. Is that not just the standard for Joshi promotions? Diana, Ice Ribbon, and TJPW all debuted people under 18 within like the last year or 2. Mei Seira would've been about 16 when she debuted in Marvelous
The moment of a bloodied Utami Hayashishita desperately trying to climb the cage as her QQ teammates desperately cheer her on and the crowd chants her name will go right next to the 5.5 star match in her career highlights
See when Joshi fans try to educate people they get called gatekeepers and it ticks me off.
Objectively Kairi didn't sell tickets in her last run
There is no legitimate way to watch NXT in Japan
Therefore your tweet was simply incorrect and you were corrected on it
This will read as more condescending than its meant to be but people asking for a weekly AEW Joshi show know that they can watch many Joshi shows every week if they just support the joshi companies right?
Asuka over exaggerates where as, Rhea Ripley is dominant via presentation.
Asuka needs, to be a silent beast. Her dancing and funny actions, takes away from her "demonic clown" look.
Just a hot take.

Anyway guys the 5STAR GP kicked off on Sunday and Syuri vs Suzu was an early MOTT contender.
The tournament continues this weekend with Suzu vs Natsupoi!
Triple H crumbling under a relatively soft question is so funny cos that's exactly what everyone knows he's like no matter how much he tries to rebrand as the cool booker that everyone loves
This Stardom vs TJPW shit is not a game, it’s a fucking war. I’d die for Stardom (and I’d give my life if it meant TJPW failed). Pick your sides now because it’s gonna get MESSY. Don’t trust anyone who isn’t open about their intentions.
Ok, I've been wanting to do this for a while so let's get it done.
Thread of Joshi wrestlers (past AND present) that I think more people should watch. Match recs will be provided!
Yknow Rossy Ogawa is kinda good at his job. There's at least two times in the past 5 years that his main event scene was hollowed out by departures and this crazy fuck was just like aight let me just successfully make some brand new stars then
A Stardom PPV WITH CHEERING that has
Giulia vs Maya Yukihi
AZM vs Kid
Hashimoto vs Himeka
Hazuki vs Saya Kamitani
Prominence, Kouzen, God's Eye, 7Uppp in trios matches
This is the GOOD SHIT
