Not a total surprise with how they book these bigger shows, but Shida will be joining Riho, Aja Kong, and Mei Suruga so far as part of the outside talent on the July 9th Summer Sun Princess show.

I hope Mei Saint-Michel is there too, maybe she could even face Mei Suruga.

From Cyberfest Festival, I really enjoyed the Shoko vs Yuka title match (especially the entrances), and the six woman tag was worth it to hear the new Final Fantasy composer theme and watching poor Suzume eat a Skull Kick:
Also Maki's next challenger for the Ota show is an "international guest wrestler". Technically they could slot in Shida or Riho, who are already on the show, but I wonder if it will be someone else for AEW.

Interestingly enough not announced (yet at least) as Maki's opponent for the International Princess Championship, but Willow Nightingale will be making her TJPW debut at Summer Sun Princess:

Miu Vs Willow should be great, actually looking forward to that more than Rosa Vs Miyu.
I think they'd have announced Itoh's opponent if it was someone from aew, maybe it's a WWE release, Tegan Nox or Dakota Kai? That said I think Nyla Rose would do well in tjpw.
The tag main event had a bit of everything, the bit where Shoka and Yuka couldn't land anything was particularly good but I'm not sure how effective silly string is.

Oh I was right Itoh's opponent isn't from aew but they waited because it's the winner of Eve's she-1. Doubt anyone cares but I'll still put it in spoiler tags. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Alex Windsor. Should be a great match although can't see Maki losing it, posted her match against Asuka/Veny in the British wrestling thread, well worth watching.

I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if Nyla did some Japanese work, she's done it before, though I forget who she wrestled for. I love that A. she would plan spot with the joshi by using some cheap dolls to simulate the moves so they'd understand what she meant, and B. that the joshi nicknamed her "Kenny Omega Hair" because she had curly hair at the time that'd frizz up with the humidity.

I do like her look, admittedly know little else about her.

Whew, is there any particularly good US way to order specifically this show, or is it Wrestle Universe or nothing?

If that offer is over or you're paying know they use the Japanese system of billing for a calender month regardless of when you sign up so plan accordingly. It's worth watching the tjpw matches from the recent Cyberfight Festival beforehand. The other recent bigger show probably isn't the best place to start for new viewers but the main event is good.

Willow Nightingale is unfortunately off the show due to visa complications, so Miu Watanabe's new opponent is now Ryo Mizunami.

I'm still really glad she changed her mind on retiring. Definitely! Willow would have been great for international interaction but Ryo has been a monster since her AEW run imo and she’s going to be in front of a Japanese audience allowed to cheer so that’s a good last minute pinch hitter.

I think most NJPW fans would agree that adopting Goto's strategy for winning isn't a great plan to win a title.

TJPW's posters are so damn good. Shame Willow won't make it, Ryo is a good replacement though.
And Hyper Misao is coming to Eve in November, unfortantly it's more expensive than I paid last time (fair enough, it's a longer show) and much later in the day but can I really put a price on love and peace? We certainly need it over here.
