Toni/Emi seems like it would be good to do on tv to keep building Toni up for what I assume is a title rematch.

I am kinda the most cautiously optimistic/everything can go south in a minute so don't act cocky type of sports fan, but I'm loving me some Dodgers right now. I still don't think this rotation can hold up against playoff teams but maybe May/Buehler coming back can even things out.

I can get the logic about doing death matches as much as they do, honestly. For as much as the usual crowd talk about concerns of isolation from advertisers and audiences, they draw and Turner clearly know that and like that they do. Like, they did a CGI promo combining it with Shark Week. That isn’t something you just throw out there on a week’s notice. Do I agree that they should be rarer on diminishing returns? Yeah, of course I do. Doing anything as often gets diminishing returns, look at WWE with the gauntlet match obsession they had after Kofimania kicked off. As someone who is fine with most death matches, I think an issue is that when AEW does them they kinda go all out every time. It's OK to have some where all the rules/tools/tropes are in play but not used. It makes the ones that go that far seem more special.

Curry is indeed a top tier cup noodle but some of the limited edition flavors you get here in Japan are bonkers, chicken nugget French fry being the craziest.

Shida seems to be pretty active in taking Japan dates, outside of Makai her schedule is pretty varied. Ice Ribbon against Ibuki Hoshi this week, then presumably challenging Suzu Suzuki for the Regina di WAVE title in WAVE, and one doozy of a match--her, Arisa Nakajima, and NATSUMI vs. Jaguar Yokota, Aja Kong, and Kyoko Inoue. That last show has KAIRI in the opening "talk battle" segment, pretty studded lol (it's a charity show for Shinjiro Otani, so that makes sense).

Tana won!
Which telegraphs Naito winning out.

Convinced every time these guys wrestle they leave it to the crowd to decide heel:face dynamic. It’s a demonstrably pro Naito crowd and Tana has people cheering for him in minutes lol. He’s really incredible

At the show today, Naito obviously always is the top shirt you see but very strong Taichi gear in the crowd lol

I always thought there was a small window for Goto to lose it after being clowned by Okada and turning heel (although I would have preferred him winning as a face) and then get the title. BC wouldn’t fit but I thought Suzuki-gun could have, he could have been like Sugiura to Suzuki in NOAH, like an enforcer who’s actually the main dude. If it happened for even one night/defense the crowd would pop huge though.

Stardom already goes in that direction so I dunno why this has to be classified as a different brand exactly, but it looks like Sonny took today's happenings as an opportunity to lean into the WWE nature of Showcase.

I'd be OK to join but defer to the priority of people rejoining/it filling up bumps me out.

https://www.instagram.com/tv/CgP9uDLjAF1 So y’all choked them, you don’t get to rep that better team case. You had a major momentum swinging comeback in game 1 and you were up 2-1 with a chance to have a dominating 3-1 lead in the series I don't think I've ever seen a coach eyeroll as quickly as Ime Udoka when Grant Williams tries to be a coach in the huddle.
