ka-to

The Kohaku music show has half of the country watching. This is the competition trying to cut into that. Fighting has worked sometimes. Then it turned into 3 different fighting shows at the same time with Kohaku retaining the NYE championship. My friend had 2 TVs set up for the night most years. The only fighters that his wife and daughters would pay attention to were Akebono and Bobby.

MSG/UFC cut ticket prices today. 200s went from $156 yesterday to $86 today.

The invisible camera that can go anywhere and wrestlers that don't know things that were shown on TV last week just kill wrestling for me.

But Dory was a better world champion.

Kawatosan showed up on Lucha Azteca TV for the first time this week. Looks like Kaho Kobayashi with that hair.

30 years of Double Inoue makes me feel old. Time goes by fast. I still think of Sato and Nozaki as young girls. The tournament matches are 10 minutes. In case of a draw, the younger team advances. That's how Kandori and Jaguar won't have to take a loss.

Anniversario will also be shown on Samurai TV starting 9/30.

Abdullah the Butcher got over as a face in Puerto Rico by dancing. That can work for any monster or crazy heel. Your unlikable asshole heels might not get the same results.

Yes, it was just a slight grudge and they went to Shea. If there was a real Italy vs. Puerto Rico war it could have gone on for a year with big business. Perez, Rivera, Denucci, Parisi and keep going.

They ran Shea Stadium when they did it with Pedro. Bruno was a heel to Pedro's fans.

Totally announcing the show backwards.

Nanae's challenge is for the Sept 5 Seadlinnng Korakuen show.

Yes. Only blocked for Mexico.

The lower level is fine. The upper level is so dark and steep that I'm surprised that people are not being injured from falls every day. So dark that I didn't know that there were cup holders.

Roller Derby thrived when they ran the "season" in there home area of the west coast and then toured the whole country in the off season hitting everywhere that had TV once or twice. When they tried to run the entire country full time, they died. NJPW might do best with a big USA tour, but only once a year. I don't think a separate sub-promotion would work out well.
