[SPEAKER_03]: So let's get right into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kelly the first show we're going to talk about is send by girls latest show happened mere hours ago.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: In fact, I think started 13 hours prior to when we're recording.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think so.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, uh, send you the biggest from I believe ZBO.
[SPEAKER_03]: How would you say that, Kelly?
[SPEAKER_03]: I, yeah, I would go
[SPEAKER_03]: Arena, Sendai, happening, of course, today, as we're recording July 12th, Kelly, your thoughts on Sendjo the biggest.
[SPEAKER_02]: I had a great time with this show.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was really good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Though I will say, the title of the show, very confusing as to where this takes place.
[SPEAKER_02]: Full title of this show is Sendjo 20th anniversary tour in Sendai pit.
[SPEAKER_02]: Isn't Sendip hit a venue or am I losing where did you see that that's like the full title of the show on cage match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, well, and then send you the biggest at the end of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Is that because it's a tour, you know, maybe like, oh, it's the tour and it started in Sendip.
[SPEAKER_02]: possibly.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it's a Sendai Girls show with a title, like that's noteworthy enough on its own.
[SPEAKER_02]: Typically, they're just like, it comes to Sendai Girls.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because the previous one was Sendai Girls in Sendai Pit, the sky's a limit, which was at Sendai Pit.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have a feeling that's at a cage match.
[SPEAKER_02]: God damn it, cage match.
[SPEAKER_02]: You've made me look like a fool for the last time.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because the others are all properly where they are, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know what I think it might be weirdly?
[SPEAKER_03]: I think every time they're in Sendai, at least on this tour, they've been at Sendai Pit.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I think maybe in the system, it was like, oh, they're in Sendai again, call it Sendai Pit.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because this 20th anniversary tour,
[SPEAKER_03]: was here in May at Sendai Pit was here in June at Sendai Pit, and now is back to Sendai, but of course is that ZBO arena Sendai.
[SPEAKER_03]: That makes, I think a cage match error, other than a, I think it would be weird for the promotion to call show the wrong title.
[SPEAKER_03]: That would be very odd.
[SPEAKER_03]: I like to show, as well, I thought it moved along very quickly.
[SPEAKER_03]: I did, you know, in order to squeeze this show in before we record today, did do some very liberal, fast-forwarding through some videos and entrances and match conclusions.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I enjoyed myself.
[SPEAKER_03]: So let's get right into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: It, the show opened with a tag team match, Real Me's Anami, and say, or you know, defeating Harouyo Matsumoto and Yura Suzuki in seven minutes and one second.
[SPEAKER_03]: My main takeaway from this is Harouyo no congrats on this harder and paycheck.
[SPEAKER_03]: Where she was in the match for 30 seconds.
[SPEAKER_02]: maybe yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Look, it was a nice warm-up, you know, real mesenami coming out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's fuck at the house party.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, getting the crowd into it, the crowd was into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were having fun and it ended.
[SPEAKER_03]: It did what it was supposed to do, but it was largely Rio facing off against for Royo and Europe.
[SPEAKER_03]: Suzuki here, so fine, but had to laugh at the end when I was like, oh, so you're taking a night off and getting a paycheck.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Mesonami is kind of your ideal.
[SPEAKER_02]: opening match wrestler like if you don't have anything really substantial for on the card sticker in the opener letter get the crowd hyped up.
[SPEAKER_03]: The next match was a singles match visiting also from start him but working a little bit harder
[SPEAKER_02]: I really liked this match.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought, yeah, Syah definitely worked a lot harder than Syahari.
[SPEAKER_02]: She was bumping like a maniac for Minami.
[SPEAKER_02]: And even though Minami lost, she came out of this look and really good, I thought.
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, it was just, it was a good match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Way higher effort than I would have expected, just they did a lot with the time they had.
[SPEAKER_02]: I went three and three quarters on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: This was a really, really good undercard match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I also really liked it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I went at three and a half stars.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Two wrestlers I like, work and hard, good action in a short amount of time, you know, like Monami.
[SPEAKER_03]: She was in that, I think they mentioned also on commentary in the five star Grand Prix.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even remember, was Edith in at that year.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi, and did they face off?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't remember that.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I've always liked Monami.
[SPEAKER_03]: Obviously, we talked about it last episode like Eda thought they worked really hard.
[SPEAKER_03]: Good action.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, did exactly what they should didn't stick around too long.
[SPEAKER_03]: Got the energy kept the energy up.
[SPEAKER_03]: So definitely, I think, in fact, looking ahead, this might be like my third favorite match of the show.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's up there for sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... which in a in a way I think speaks more to what's upcoming then uh... anything else but a very good match that by very much enjoyed the next match was a tag team match a debut match azacong and mico can i defeating rain at a cano and you
[SPEAKER_03]: making her debut in 14 minutes and 23 seconds, I have to say that you, you're going to
[SPEAKER_03]: and immediately look like she was going to break down into your eyes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like she had like a arm bar or something, our arm twist and was like, like dying and I was sort of like, look, I understand the principle of, oh, you're the inexperienced wrestler, you know, things are going to be hard, but I think their
[SPEAKER_03]: I would hope that these people would come in this match having some sort of like it felt very much like they had picked someone out of the audience and been like, do you want a wrestle and they were like, yeah, and then you do one move and they're like, ah, this really hurts.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, haven't you been training for a long time?
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, it did get into the classic beats of the Aja rookie match, where it's like, I'm fighting back, I'm hitting four arms and they're not working, but I have fighting spirit that I was like, okay, but the beginning of the match, it was like, oh, I'm going to burst into tears at any moment because I really am not.
[SPEAKER_03]: loving this and sort of like, okay, I understand that, but it was just odd to watch for me at the beginning then she did a kip up and I was like, oh, yeah, that's fun, but the beginning of the match was her like almost sobbing in the ring and I was like, I don't love this.
[SPEAKER_02]: that's one thing I love about rookies that are just kind of still trying to figure out how to sell and they kind of sell things just like their regular people.
[SPEAKER_02]: I always find that very funny and just interesting and how they interact with the wrestlers around them when there's just like I'm still kind of a civilian.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and it's like, oh, I'm going to sell like I'm actually dying.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like we don't like we understand, but we don't really want that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like we like selling, but we want you to sell like, I'm hurt and not like, oh, I'm
[SPEAKER_03]: in physical pain of death, especially maybe later in the match when you're like, I have nothing left.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it was like, I'm going to put an arm twist on.
[SPEAKER_02]: And she was like, Oh, God.
[SPEAKER_03]: And you're like, um, take it down.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe two or three notches in the first three minutes of this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Other than that, it was fine.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was the
[SPEAKER_03]: no one can I'm the big bad trying to fight me stuff classic stuff.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was fine to me, but I've also seen it a bunch.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I wasn't blown.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think there's better examples of that and there have been better examples even in the last number of months.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it was fine, but really nothing I got too excited about.
[SPEAKER_02]: See, we're kind of split on this.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought this was an incredible debut for Rana.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, interesting.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought she showed a ton of fire and a lot of potential, like pretty much everything after when she did like the kip up.
[SPEAKER_02]: But it's like, okay, her wrestler brain kicked in.
[SPEAKER_02]: She made, there might be something here with her.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I thought she looked good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, it's got to be intimidating to have your first match be against Ajay Kong.
[SPEAKER_02]: But I thought she acclimated herself well as things went on.
[SPEAKER_02]: just to have put on a really entertaining match.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think it also helps to have someone like Miku in there too, who is also a very good, very young wrestler.
[SPEAKER_02]: Who, one thing that I took note of is watching her.
[SPEAKER_02]: She does drop kicks like exactly like sorry does.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like they are just picture, the exact same movement in every way.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very cool to see that.
[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I went four stars on this.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, wow.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, there you go The next match was a singles match, Dysuke Sekamoto defeating Super Sasadango machine in eight minutes and 31 seconds Kelly, I don't even think you watched this correct.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, I wanted to make sure I was done with the show in time for this show.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I skipped it
[SPEAKER_03]: I did watch it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I would say I have no notes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, it's not Yoshi, so I didn't really feel that invested in it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it was about what you would expect a 2026 disgain second moto and super sassadango machine managed to look like.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, really hurts when the
[SPEAKER_03]: Big highlight of Sussan-dong machine is the power point and No English commentary on the show, which is fine, but it's like I don't really know what's being said Yeah, I sort of guess and then the match starts and you're like, oh This looks like they're just having a match Like they just went out and they're like we'll do some eight minute, you know match, okay, and we're done
[SPEAKER_03]: But moving on from that and going back to Joshi or at least mostly Joshi, we had an eight person tag team match jaguar yacota say say yura
[SPEAKER_03]: Is that how you say that?
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: A misenjo die cannon and unagi sciakia defeated a need of on kishio Tokyo, Japan, Sapphire, and Stephanie Mays.
[SPEAKER_03]: My single note on this was fuck everyone in this match except for Sarah, who ruled.
[SPEAKER_03]: And in fact, Kelly was watching the show and told me he skipped this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I said, no, you have to watch it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Go back, skip the entrances to take half the running time of the match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I, what I skipped it, went by like half an hour is like, oh, thank God.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, Sarah in the uptown promotion debuted, I believe two months ago, and I was like, she rules.
[SPEAKER_03]: She's so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, the German wrestlers were all fine, um, Jero and his, his gaggle of white women.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jero, um, like, even though Naki was annoying me with the, with the band.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I don't know why she's made that her thing in recent months, but I feel like every match I've seen with her lately has that bit, and I don't care for it.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it was also the bit of like, Oh, we didn't wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's do it again.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah, wrong again.
[SPEAKER_03]: We got to do it again.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we didn't wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, we're laughing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, my God.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, yeah, there's someone who's been doing this for many years, who's much better at it than you are.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, stop doing this.
[SPEAKER_03]: So like everyone annoyed me and then Sarah would like do a shooting star press and I would be like what the heck I know on commentary.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were talking like I think talking about how she loves dragon kit or something Okay, they brought up dragon kit and I was like I could see it with all stuff but bring her back brilliant looking shooting star
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, so, you know, she's not just an uptown, I hope she's other places.
[SPEAKER_03]: I hope this is also people figuring out that she's really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Senjo Dye Cannon was nothing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
[SPEAKER_03]: He did the choke slam.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he did one move.
[SPEAKER_03]: They did one move.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: I did enjoy them just standing on the apron totally motionless except for when someone would bounce into the ropes and then they made sure to hold on to the ropes so they didn't get tossed.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, also I think they did the choke slam and then like re adjusted their their gear and I was like, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were like, oh, got to make sure the gear looks good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I thought they were getting ready to like get into the ring.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, yeah, I thought, oh, they've been activated by doing this slam.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then I was like, no, never mind.
[SPEAKER_02]: It reminded me of a movie called The Great Buddha Arrival, where there's a giant Buddha statue that just kind of is motionless for the most part that goes through Tokyo as a as a Kaiju almost that is based on a 1934 lost Kaiju movie.
[SPEAKER_02]: thought that was, that was an interesting thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, I wonder if that's what this is referencing, but who knows?
[SPEAKER_03]: But a match I would absolutely not recommend except for the fact one person is very good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... then we got to the business end of the car three title matches in a row the first one the sendi girls junior title match spike nishimura finally defeating senca acotski to win the title in nine minutes and fifty one seconds i thought this was a good match i think it's good to get senca more of these matches where she's supposed to sort of be fifty fifty
[SPEAKER_03]: on the offense because I think we talked about the last time we were covering a senca match, is that I think the reliance on her being this crappy underdog means he hasn't really developed a solid offense.
[SPEAKER_03]: It looked a lot more solid here.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I think getting her in these matches where she's supposed to be, you know, you're on offense and it should look like it hurts and
[SPEAKER_03]: Make sense spike was winning because they've run this match now like four times or something and I think spike losing again would have been a little bit goofy.
[SPEAKER_03]: But interested I think the most interesting thing is is this the Sankha.
[SPEAKER_03]: Elevation move at this point to get her out of the unit you know you lose your title and you move up.
[SPEAKER_03]: Or are we still going to wait a bit?
[SPEAKER_03]: I couldn't see either at this point.
[SPEAKER_03]: But a good match wasn't blown away by it, but I thought it was very solid.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I wasn't super wild by this.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was fine.
[SPEAKER_02]: I never really clicked with me like I was hoping it would.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was a little sloppy at times, but like they didn't blow any major spots.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I can't super complain about it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'd probably go around like three and a quarter or three and a half in that range.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then the semi main event of the show was the
[SPEAKER_03]: the red energy duo of Mikiwada and Miyuki Takase retain their titles defeating Bob Bob Momo Banana, Miyomomano and Yureka Oka in 17 minutes and five seconds Kelly.
[SPEAKER_02]: I have the realization during this match that Bob Bob Momo Banana are basically what if
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like their matches have very much the same vibes, but then Babamobanana are awesome.
[SPEAKER_02]: And like at one point, Yurikooka just pulls out a shoot headbutt as just like a transition move.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's very funny.
[SPEAKER_02]: I did enjoy it when Oko runs in and whapped it water in the head with the banana.
[SPEAKER_02]: And the commentator just goes, oh, banana.
[SPEAKER_02]: like it's fucking a chair or something like that popped me these two teams always deliver when they're together.
[SPEAKER_02]: So this was great.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was very happy with it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was cool to see me get a water win a match on a big stage.
[SPEAKER_02]: That was nice.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm glad they let her win because that doesn't happen very often.
[SPEAKER_02]: uh and she really just beat the bricks off of those two girls just beat the absolute shit out of them had some real nasty looking kicks just like this was great I went for in a quarter this kind of high speed versus hard hitting match is always like a winning combination for me.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's funny you say that because my thought was the last few big, you know, cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: I guess maybe quote unquote big Bob Bob mobile banana matches.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've gone in being like, this is going to be so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: And they've been good matches, but like a level below.
[SPEAKER_03]: What I'm sort of expecting like I remember back to the FWC match where I was like this is going to be so good and it was solid I think I might have gone like three and three quarters, but I was expecting like four and a half
[SPEAKER_03]: where I was like, ah, it's not quite at this level.
[SPEAKER_03]: This was the one where I was like, yes, this is what I expected.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I have been expecting this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Highlighted the finishing sequence with Mika and Yurika Oka was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: My note was if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if
[SPEAKER_03]: If not for the criminal, the legendarily criminal booking over years, think of how good Mika a water would be considered.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah, she's so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, thank God she won, getting a good win.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm like, she's so good and no one talks about her because every time she gets any sort of momentum, she has to like banana peel lose like an idiot.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, she's so great.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought she was really great in this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought all four were really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: But just that finishing sequence, great near falls, you know, high energy, constant energy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I also went four and a quarter stars.
[SPEAKER_03]: Really enjoyed it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this was the thing where I was like, yes, this is the Bob Bob mobile banana match.
[SPEAKER_03]: That like every time they get announced against a big team, I'm like, this is what I expect.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It helps, you know, again, to be across two really great workers.
[SPEAKER_02]: And these two teams have specifically just great chemistry.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, just go back to the match where was it meoka hurt?
[SPEAKER_02]: And they kind of just had to call the match on the fly with a justoka versus red energy.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it was still fucking incredible.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love that match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, um, they do, I mean, they're all for, I think individually you'd be like, oh, they're all great workers.
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's like, okay, they get together.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're all great workers.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, definitely a highlight of the show really happy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, yes, this is, this is it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then we get to the main event of the show, the Sendai Girl's World Champion Jihiro Hashimoto, defeating Vinny in 22 minutes, and 54 seconds, nearly 23 minutes, Kelly.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if it was in the middle or near the end of this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought of something and I was like, I have a hot take.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh.
[SPEAKER_03]: for the podcast.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I was thinking, and then I was thinking about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, actually, I don't think this is a take.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I think that everyone should agree with me.
[SPEAKER_03]: The last 10 years of Josie.
[SPEAKER_03]: So vaguely, you know, maybe not exactly 10 years, but vaguely, 2016 to 2026.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, to hero Hashimoto is the best Yoshi wrestler of the last 10 years, and I don't think it's very close.
[SPEAKER_02]: The only person I would put up against her is sorry, but sorry was gone in WWE for like four years.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that is true.
[SPEAKER_03]: like there's a four-year period where sorry had no matches.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's not true, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like in everyone you could be like, oh, so and so is really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, yeah, but they missed, you know, series another one.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, series was not active that whole, you know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, Hashimoto going back to 20, it was either 2016 or 2015 that series of matches with Siri.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, then seri leaves and she keeps going, I mean, every one of these big matches that she has on these Sendai girls shows are always good she never misses she never misses and it's like if you're going to put someone in the main of that and you want to guarantee a good match I am picking us a model all the percent.
[SPEAKER_03]: These are always good and at least me into saying this match was awesome.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, it's so funny.
[SPEAKER_03]: We talked about either last episode or two episodes.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, oh, it's sort of a bummer that Vinnie is sort of putsing around these undercards of these indie, Joshy shows.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, and then comes here and it's like, Oh, yes, this is the thing that we were all like, she's so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, oh, a reminder is this the thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's, you know, I don't think she has the sort of momentum.
[SPEAKER_03]: She did a couple of years ago where it was like, she is so good, everything's coming up, Betty.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I think some of that sort of momentum, not having to do with anything in ring, but just her position in the world of wrestling.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think has gone down a little, but, you know, comes here and it's like,
[SPEAKER_03]: This match was amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was exactly what you would think these two could do as Vinnie's entry video weirdly said leave that humdrum place of glum behind Kelly Which I found so weird I re wound the video to be like what why does that say that?
[SPEAKER_03]: Just like tough
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even really know what to say because it's like have you ever seen a good to hear a Hashimoto match?
[SPEAKER_03]: This was it.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, fighting spirit, those crazy suplexes, headbutts, everything you want.
[SPEAKER_03]: I went four and a half, although I'm so on the border of four and three quarters.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like if someone was like, you need to give this form through cars, I would be like, okay, well, like I'm very invincible, where I was like, I think four and a half, just because there isn't really beyond it being so good and ring, there isn't really that extra, um, of like, oh, it's part of a great story, you know, it's the end of something, you know, whatever, it's just sort of like, this is a great match, it's so good.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I was like, it's so good that maybe it's four and three quarters, but I went four and half.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm very interested to hear what you thought of it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was also four and a half.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought, you know, this was awesome.
[SPEAKER_02]: Vaney was really good here.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I kind of, there's a couple moments.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, maybe she's going to pull this out.
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought her limb work on Hashimoto's arm was really good, even though it kind of
[SPEAKER_02]: didn't really amount to much in the story of the match.
[SPEAKER_02]: That honestly, that's what kept me from going for in three quarters.
[SPEAKER_02]: Was I wish that would have played some kind of role going further into the match, but even so it was still really good.
[SPEAKER_02]: They both worked so hard in this match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Jehiro ate so many boots to the face.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like my goodness, she just, and you could tell after the show, she was red and beat up.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like she really took some shots.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I've really thought about this comparison prior to this show, but having
[SPEAKER_02]: Sekamoto on this card.
[SPEAKER_02]: It really made me think like this kind of match reminded me so much of like that golden age of big Japan with like Sekamoto and Okobiyashi and all those dudes just beefing around and hitting each other real hard.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like this is the closest we have to that right now and it's funny, you know, Sekamoto is on the show and Hashimoto is doing a better Sekamoto match
[SPEAKER_03]: I always think about, you know, obviously we have this podcast.
[SPEAKER_03]: There are people.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Jochie as a whole is in a much stronger place than it was 10 years ago, or even probably five, seven years ago at this point.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just think about like in 25 years, people going back because like, people don't really talk about like, Jochie people do, but regular people don't talk
[SPEAKER_02]: No.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like now, a lot of people in startup get talked about, which they deserve.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's a lot of really great people there, but they've got the backing.
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, Tokyo, Yoshi gets some talk, um, which is also deserve.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it's like people outside of Yoshi.
[SPEAKER_03]: No one talks about you here, Ashamoto.
[SPEAKER_02]: In like the English-speaking fandom, like I would say Hashimoto's biggest supporters probably are from Europe because she works there every now and then.
[SPEAKER_02]: and they are exposed to her and like holy shit.
[SPEAKER_02]: This woman rules.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and I just think in 25 years people being like, Oh, here's some wrestling that no one ever talks about.
[SPEAKER_03]: Featuring one of the greatest wrestlers of the time.
[SPEAKER_02]: We discovered this lost media featuring a wrestler named Chihiro Hashimoto.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... but it's just crazy she's so good is this the best match you've never seen uh... if if the world even exists in in twenty five years we should just start making you two videos like that i mean we probably could yeah we'd probably be really good at yeah you know they let women wrestle yet yet except then we'd have to fight off all the comments that are like
[SPEAKER_03]: but they're women, they could never be as good as the men.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're not, you know, they're no Dan housing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because Dan housing knows how to connect with a crowd, women aren't just for gooning to.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I was gonna say we're moving on, but I'm not sure I want that to be the end of our family's review.
[SPEAKER_02]: Look, that's going to be our, like, first YouTube video, and it's going to get so many hits.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to be rich.
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, the match is great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Go out of your way to watch this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's on WrestleMania Universe.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's the other thing now.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like,
[SPEAKER_03]: Look, I'll say it, wrestle universe, cyber fight, abandoned miracles.
[SPEAKER_02]: Stop propping up Rossi.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, we're going to, so here's our YouTube channel.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to do a bricks and many figs type saga, but about Rossi.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to take them down.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to take down Rossi.
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see, hiding under that hat.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well,
[SPEAKER_03]: That could be an 11 million part video.
[SPEAKER_03]: See?
[SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, rest of the universe get behind send-i girls and forget about Marigold.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's what I say.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, what else happened in the last two weeks of Joshi while we talked about it on the previous episode?
[SPEAKER_03]: But we had a big world of stardom title match at the Stardom Quirkin Hall show on June 30th, Susu Suzuki retaining the world of stardom title, defeating the Challenger Utami,
[SPEAKER_03]: Another match.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought this was really, really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I went for an accordor because of one major issue I had with this match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: There were at least three occasions of late kickouts.
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been noticing that a lot lately.
[SPEAKER_03]: at least three that were not 2.9 that were like 3.2 yes and I was like what is going on because then you see the you see the hold of the hand by the rough and you're like nothing's happened yet and then it's a kick out the first one I was like okay you missed one it happens the timing isn't right but I was like it kept happening and I was like why is this still have like kick out
[SPEAKER_03]: at this point they're trying to get close to three but it's like you're not hitting three you're not close.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, but the action was really good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like to I went foreign and quarter stars.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I thought it was really strong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Really, I'm very happy to see Susu win.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, because that's interesting to me.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, I was very worried she was just a transitional champion here, but it looks like she's going to get an actual run.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and I think if you Tommy wins, you're like, okay, they're going back to Tommy.
[SPEAKER_03]: It will be what it's always been.
[SPEAKER_03]: But now I'm like, I don't know what it's going to be.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's yeah, it's far more interesting for her to lose and be like, all right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, what do I do now?
[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't just walk in here and dominate like I did in Marigold.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then there were some five-star Grand Prix qualifying matches throughout the two weeks.
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll talk about that shortly, and then on the eighth, start him had another cork in.
[SPEAKER_03]: I also have to say, I'll say this.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll stand tall saying this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Start him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Stop calling all your cork and haul shows the same thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Every cork and haul show is nighter in cork and haul.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm like, can't we think of any other names of shows?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, that goes to what I was seeing earlier with Sendai girls were for the longest time.
[SPEAKER_02]: All of their shows were just called Sendai girls.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm like, oh, call it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know something.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tag, match, and cork and haul.
[SPEAKER_03]: Something else, because I'm just looking at these all of these cork and shows and it's like nighter and cork and haul, nighter and cork and haul.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, okay, let's think back on the great cork and haul shows.
[SPEAKER_03]: What was it called?
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, which one was it?
[SPEAKER_02]: I was definitely called nighter and cork and haul.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're all the same exact name.
[SPEAKER_03]: But on the 8th at Corrican Hall, the new Genesis duo of Azumi and Miyu Amisaki defending successfully, the goddesses of stardom title against high high mate, Hanako and Micah.
[SPEAKER_03]: What else has been going on in Diana, Miran, defeated Coco to not retain the Diana crystal title.
[SPEAKER_03]: As we talked about last episode, and then in the main event of that show on July 5th, Icosato and Hanako Nakamura becoming the Diana Tag Champions after they defeated Haruka Umasaki and Umagi Saika.
[SPEAKER_03]: And the catch, the wave tournament has come to an end.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_03]: They caught it.
[SPEAKER_03]: We hardly knew you because you didn't air.
[SPEAKER_03]: Haruka Umasaki,
[SPEAKER_03]: in a sub 13 minute finals match, which a little bit odd, but Haruka Umasaki will is now.
[SPEAKER_03]: The number one contender for the Regina DeWave title currently held by Tsugayuki.
[SPEAKER_03]: That title match will happen in August.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also happening in the last two weeks.
[SPEAKER_03]: The just tap out JTO seventh anniversary show.
[SPEAKER_03]: at Corrican Hall on July 10th.
[SPEAKER_03]: Two big matches there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Saya Kamatani defeating Azuzah Inaba.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kelly, both you and I watched this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to say, I thought it was good.
[SPEAKER_03]: I probably would have gone four stars.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I was a little bit over-expectant because both you and John from wrestling, Omakase, big hype.
[SPEAKER_03]: for the match.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I think I went and expecting.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think I did.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just said, well, I think the combination of John did big hype.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I went for on it, too.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we were even very good match, very enjoyable.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then Kelly, I know you watched the JTO girls title match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Where Tomica and Abba defeated Mirai to win that title.
[SPEAKER_03]: What do you think of that match?
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, that match was really good too.
[SPEAKER_02]: I went for on that as well.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I actually learned and talking to John, the mirai title when never aired, which is very funny, because going into this show, I don't, I didn't know that she was champion and then to find out that that title match never aired is very good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, it's 2026.
[SPEAKER_02]: What are we doing?
[SPEAKER_02]: But the JTO, 7th anniversary show was very fun.
[SPEAKER_02]: I watched all of it, and I enjoyed it quite a bit.
[SPEAKER_02]: Definitely worth a watch.
[SPEAKER_02]: Pretty full curriculum.
[SPEAKER_02]: Think they got like 1,100 or something roughly people in there.
[SPEAKER_02]: Some fun stuff on the end of card.
[SPEAKER_02]: Nothing like must see, but it's a fun anniversary show.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I really enjoyed the new training he's got where she's a big lady and her gimmick is I play the clarinet.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like why not live a sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, and I think talk I had threatened that if they didn't draw a thousand people to cork and they would never run cork and again, but they've done it so look forward to work and all
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, what is coming up in the next two weeks?
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, we got a lot of big things coming up in the next two weeks.
[SPEAKER_03]: The first one is the beginning of the five star Grand Prix big news coming out just recently, which is that B Presley is injured, and will not be a part of the tournament.
[SPEAKER_03]: She is being replaced by someone who is currently only known by X.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, so we will have to see who that is, uh, but be priestly, I don't believe was scheduled to have a match in the first five days.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's crazy of the tournament.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't in terms of what's coming up in the next two weeks, which we'll talk about in a second.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, I don't believe her absence effects.
[SPEAKER_03]: these shows, but we'll go through them now.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's the thing with these kind of tournaments where it's like when we're talking about the standings and where people are, you always got to look at it.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's like, oh, okay, that person only has two points because they've had all match in even though we're halfway through the tournament.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, so it's really
[SPEAKER_03]: wrestles a lot early the red blocks wrestle a lot early and then not late.
[SPEAKER_03]: So there's definitely some imbalance here.
[SPEAKER_03]: But actually the first three days are balanced day one happening on July 18th will be at Oda Ward.
[SPEAKER_03]: Eight matches here in the red A block.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... psychocarrera and a cure care gana tomica a naba will face off against it's suki aoki may see her out against reenium ashita in the be read be black and also in the red be black cia eda against a zoo's it in naba
[SPEAKER_03]: over on the blue side in Ayahsakura against Hanako and Miyu Amisaki versus Ruaca and in the B-block Kogama versus Kiyoko for Asawa and Yuna Mizumori versus Momo Watanabe.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have to say, Kelly, usually this opening day of the five star, one of the highlights.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're not a very stack show, which I was just going to say, um, not for me, personally, not a lot of excitement, like my most anticipated match is easily may Sierra versus Reno Yamashita.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Eda and Inaba could be fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I'm interested to see Unimizimori and Momo Watanabe, Momo Watanabe coming back, Yuna with a good opportunity, but there's, you know, other than that, not too much excitement.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now, on this match where I'm used to seeing like, oh, here's the heavy hitters.
[SPEAKER_03]: that you won't believe on this first day and you've got like six four star matches and it's the best show you've ever seen.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's like everyone works.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a huge show every like previous title matches are your main event like it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this does not stand up to past five star lineups.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then the next day on the 19th will be day two in Toyahashi over on the red side.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tomake inaba against Natsuka Torah and Siyat Kakarara versus Rina in the red A.
[SPEAKER_03]: Red B will have Uttami versus Rina Yamashita and Macyara versus Maki Yito.
[SPEAKER_03]: And on the blue side, in A, Susu Suzuki versus Hina, Rihon versus Ruaqa, and the B will have Amisore versus Kogama, and Hanan versus Kiko for Asawa.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kelly, what's your most anticipated match of this show?
[SPEAKER_02]: Is Rina Yamashita saving this tournament for me?
[SPEAKER_02]: Because that match against Uttami, looking real good.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's really nothing else on this show that I'm super interested in.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I guess Macy R. versus Machito might be interesting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: It depends on what Machito shows up.
[SPEAKER_03]: Very true.
[SPEAKER_02]: Is she working a hard match?
[SPEAKER_02]: She's she doing bits.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then the very next day again will be day three in Osaka on the red side.
[SPEAKER_03]: Psychicara versus
[SPEAKER_03]: Azumi vs. Micah in Red A, Red B will be reading Amashita vs. Azusa in Abba, Syaida vs. Lady C, B Block B Block, Blue Block A, Miyo Amisaki against Hanako and Iosakura vs. Hina, and in the B Block, Momo Watanabe vs. Kyoko Furusawa, and Hanan vs. Kogama.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will say there is a lot writing on, you know, it's possible, like, for a Sawa comes out and it's like, holy shit.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's coming out party and a lot of this looks better.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: But a lot of these matches are on the younger.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, Karara versus Enaba could be good.
[SPEAKER_01]: It could also not be good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Azumi versus Micah is probably my
[SPEAKER_03]: match of this day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I would say.
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, for you, Kelly, maybe Rina.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Rina versus Azusa.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's not going to be good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then we have a little bit of a break.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then on July 24th, it is a red only day for red A for red B matches
[SPEAKER_03]: It's Suki Aoki versus Natsukatura, and on the B-side, Lady C versus Rini Yamashita, Maseira versus Konami, Uttami versus Azusa, Inaba, and Saida versus Amaki Ido.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tomake Inaba versus Azumi?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's, I was thinking that, or Karara versus Micah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Loki, this is maybe going to be a hot take.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Aoki versus Torra could be a dog of the turn.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was actually thinking that could be the worst match of the turn of it as well.
[SPEAKER_03]: i i think there's probably other matches that we that could line up where you're like oh this could actually be it but i think that's an underrated i i think i'm on the other i i think i'm on a different and kelly you probably are too on a different end i see a lot of love for a okey on
[SPEAKER_03]: online and I just don't really understand it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like her just fine, but like that's it.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's where she's like a replacement where it's like, okay, she's a total like, not negative, not positive and in a single tournament that goes on for many days, that's like the exact type of person where you're like, oh, they're going to come out.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going to be three stars.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's going
[SPEAKER_03]: and you know on day four that might be okay on day not four yeah it's gonna be tough so maybe having this early will that's when you're like yeah close my eyes take a little nap and then day five
[SPEAKER_03]: which is on July 26, the last show of this two week period.
[SPEAKER_03]: Another red block show, jeez, red and a, another red show, A-block renaverses, Natsukatura, Sikakuraverses, Azumi, Tomake, Inabaverses, Micah, and Tsukia, Okieverses, Akira, Kira Gane, In the B-block, LADC, Verses, Konami, Reenium, Ashta, Verses, Makihito, Maitake.
[SPEAKER_03]: Macyar versus Azusa inaba and utami versus psiaida.
[SPEAKER_03]: So some fun things, both inaba sisters and fun matches utami and psiaida could be fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: So some things, some things there as well.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, no, this is a solid lineup overall.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then we will be back in two weeks to talk to you even more hopefully by then we will know, well, we better know who X is by that point.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that is the big stardom it's going to as it always does it's five star season so that will be the focus of stardom ceiling has a show coming up on July 26 not too much of interest there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tokyo Joshi, also diving into a big time they have summer sun princess coming up a very big show.
[SPEAKER_03]: The card is as follows.
[SPEAKER_03]: They will see their newest wrestler debut, Momo Sato.
[SPEAKER_03]: She will debut.
[SPEAKER_03]: It will be Ude Takami and Ren Kanatsu versus Shion Kanzaki and Momo Sato.
[SPEAKER_03]: Making her Tokyo, Joshi, her long awaited, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[SPEAKER_03]: This is at least hopefully going to shake up this usual Raccoopom undercard match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, remember, like last time when we were just like, hey, maybe she could
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... but we will see i would say you know the argument is i would say one of the most legendary joshie comedy wrestlers of all time debuting in one of the most prominent joshie comedy promotions and it's kind of surprising that this hasn't happened before yeah especially because she's seemingly everywhere at all times yeah
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, so we'll see could be interesting, uh, but also it's on the other card.
[SPEAKER_03]: So if it's no good, then what does it really matter?
[SPEAKER_02]: Close my eyes.
[SPEAKER_02]: Take a little nap.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then we have a tag match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Youki, I ain't know, and Haru Kazishiro facing off against Mirai and toga.
[SPEAKER_03]: This could be a lot of fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: Here we go.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's a cool match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then it will be Ajrakong taking on a riso endo that's interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, when keep on winning me back, then it will be yuki kamifuku kumadori and
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, Kelly, I am not familiar with Kuma Dori.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know who that is either.
[SPEAKER_03]: Either, um, this is a very strange man.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is a UK comma Fuku.
[SPEAKER_03]: Did we talk about this last episode retiring?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think we know.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that happened after we recorded.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, did it?
[SPEAKER_02]: I believe so.
[SPEAKER_02]: I could be wrong.
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I believe this is a year retiring.
[SPEAKER_03]: So what do you want to do on the show.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, which is fine.
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll see.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, we'll see how it goes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Masuki was facing off against a mystery wrestler, which has just recently been revealed to be Willow Nightingale.
[SPEAKER_02]: Cool match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Returning to Tokyo Joshii.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jokio Toshii.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's what it's gonna be after the soccer or her odors here.
[SPEAKER_03]: I said there are prominent comedy promotion.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's a free one, Jokio Toshii.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, should be a good match, supposedly Willow asked for Mizuki, I believe, so that should be good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then we get to the business end of the card, the international princess title is on the line as Susamay defends against Wakana Oihara, Kelly, do we end up with a new champion here?
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I don't think so, but I'm hoping we get a very good showing out of walk on a, and if anyone can guide her through a good match, it's Sussamae.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it could, I think it could be interesting, of course.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm always Daisy monkey pills.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, what I'm like, they're going to put Daisy monkey back together.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm like, she's got to lose the title.
[SPEAKER_03]: So this is the time to do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, but we'll see interesting to see how I walk in a does here.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think the tag team in the long run.
[SPEAKER_03]: is, or was probably a net negative for her in terms of in-ring.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we'll be interesting to see if she can come out here, have a good match.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's my major hope.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think if she comes out and has a good match, that'll be fine if she wins.
[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, if she comes out and has a good match and loses, then that's also fine as well.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, but we will see then the princess tag team titles are on the line.
[SPEAKER_03]: The reluctant Challenger, Shoko Nakajima and hypermissal who did not want this match.
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, will challenge me, you want to know Bay and Rikatetsumi should be a good match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this feels like Tokyo, Yoshi kind of old reliable.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like you're going to stick these for a match.
[SPEAKER_02]: Probably going to be good.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then the main event is the Princess of Princess title match, Yuki or I, the champion will defend against the ace of Tokyo, Yoshi, Miyu, Yamashita.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, Yuki's got a win, right?
[SPEAKER_02]: I think so.
[SPEAKER_03]: This does feel like a trap where three or four years ago, Miyu would win.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_03]: 100%.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm like, she's good.
[SPEAKER_03]: To me, you push sort of all the chips in, and it is working, it appears.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what number this show is gonna draw, but we'll see, but it's been doing very well.
[SPEAKER_03]: The promotion has been doing very well.
[SPEAKER_03]: It feels like now you've gotta be like, yes, this is our person.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, going back to that Sendback Girl show, I did think in the middle of the main event.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tokyo Josh, you should bring in Vennie to train with Ukiyari on kicks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, yes, absolutely.
[SPEAKER_03]: Because she, Vennie like did, finally, in there did.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, that looks great.
[SPEAKER_03]: Bring her in and essentially have her tell Ukiyari do it this way.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: don't do it any other way.
[SPEAKER_03]: Do it this way.
[SPEAKER_03]: But a good looking card.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm excited for the show.
[SPEAKER_03]: It should be good.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tokyo, Yoshi, really on a hot streak.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't see why this changes that.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then just a few days later on the 20th of July, the Tokyo Princess Cup starts.
[SPEAKER_03]: wrestler videos on their Twitter, I haven't watched any of them.
[SPEAKER_02]: I saw them actually last night.
[SPEAKER_02]: I was looking for something else and I saw that there was all these little intro videos to each wrestler and it's like, that's cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: I like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're very fun.
[SPEAKER_03]: They seem, you know, it makes a big deal out of these.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're just sort of simple like I'm standing in front of a screen pointing at the camera.
[SPEAKER_03]: But they're very cool.
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought they were very fun for all the princess cup entrance.
[SPEAKER_03]: So on the 20th, we will have the first round matches.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is in classic Tokyo Joshi style where two wrestlers face off in the first round to then face a wrestler getting a buy in the second round.
[SPEAKER_03]: uh... so the first round matches will be uited to kami against me amashita raku versus mizuki arisa endo versus sokara hatori walkin at wihara versus mifuashita toga versus momo sato who will be jumping right in
[SPEAKER_03]: to the deep end of the pool in the princess cup.
[SPEAKER_03]: Me, you want to know about against Ren Kanatsu, Susume versus Shia, Kanzaki, and Haru Kazashiro versus Yuki, or I Kelly, I ask you because I don't really have an answer.
[SPEAKER_03]: Who do you think wins this tournament?
[SPEAKER_02]: I have zero idea.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna make a bold declaration and say that Haru upsets Yuki or I.
[SPEAKER_03]: interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: In the finals?
[SPEAKER_02]: No, in the, uh, the open space.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I was like, what?
[SPEAKER_03]: Um, interesting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's my old declaration for this show.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we will see that will happen
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Matches where four of the winners from this show will face four of the wrestlers getting buys.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that will be, re-catted to me, hypermissal, chicken and assay, and himalari are the four wrestlers getting buys.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we'll see usually a show that sort of heats up
[SPEAKER_03]: or an attorneyman I should say that heats up as it goes on usually the first round is a pretty short uh... matches but over the years usually the final four you know final maybe eight should be pretty good matches so looking for to it and it's really wide open
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, the first round of this tournament is always just a struggle for me because no matter what the show is typically single cam with a very sleepy crowd and I struggle to watch that show.
[SPEAKER_01]: But we'll see I mean it seems like maybe with them putting a little bit you know doing the videos maybe they'll have a little bit more.
[SPEAKER_03]: behind these first round matches, but we will see what happens.
[SPEAKER_03]: Also, semi-girls will is having a quirk and haul show on July 20th.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't believe anything has been announced or hasn't been announced as of this moment.
[SPEAKER_03]: I would assume
[SPEAKER_03]: maybe doing Hashimoto and Siri?
[SPEAKER_03]: Is Siri came out at the end of the show question?
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I think they may have been talking in commentary about that.
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's, I swear I heard something about like an anniversary, something in just the little bit that I could grasp, so it might be then.
[SPEAKER_03]: So things may have been announced by the time this comes out.
[SPEAKER_03]: But as of this moment, we don't know.
[SPEAKER_03]: Kelly, what has been going on in Choco Pro?
[SPEAKER_02]: Choco Pro on the 14th, we've got a show called It's Time coming up.
[SPEAKER_02]: That will be manavented with a Super Asia title match, Mia Yatsuba defending against Mesa Ruga.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then also on that show, Rina Yamashita makes her return to Choco Pro after dropping the Super Asia title to Mia
[SPEAKER_03]: So those should both be good.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also on that show is going to be Chris Brooks and Bollyon Aki, teaming to face the Brahmin brothers.
[SPEAKER_02]: So get excited.
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, well that is just the little things coming up in the next two weeks.
[SPEAKER_03]: So when we return, we'll have five star grand prix, summer sun princess, Tokyo princess cup and more.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh boy, to talk about, but for now,
[SPEAKER_03]: We are all done so I throw it over to Kelly for Kelly's corner.
[SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I went and did something yesterday.
[SPEAKER_02]: I left the house.
