Ramo2653 Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Throwing this out there in case I feel like signing up for another wrestling service; how easy is it to sign up and watch Stardom World? Do they have an app or would I have to hook my laptop to my TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Signing up is easy, the only part that usually messes people up is putting the credit card expiration month/year backwards (put it in as year/month). Their site is browser based so no app. Be forewarned that like all Japanese streaming services, they bill at the first of the month, not the day you sign up.

They were revived for this feud with the winner taking the belts to their home promotion. It would make for a strong promotion if they merged. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eivion Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Finally saw the Ota Ward show. That was good if only for the main event. Utami & Syuri both had career performances with their match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonzombie Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) Miyu and Maki Itoh lost, so still no double princess champ in TJPW's history yet. Edited June 17, 2021 by D.Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.H. Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 They basically used the tag title match to set Sakisama up to challenge Miyu on 6/24 James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Meltzer gave Utami/Syuri 5 1/2 stars which I am 99.9% sure is the first women's match to go past 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.H. Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Further thoughts post -Cinderella... I think as far as STARS/OT goes they're going to set-up a match where Kid legit turns on Mayu. That sets things up and gets Mayu away from Tora but keeps it about STARS v. OT. I still think Kyona is coming back earlier than most people do and if I'm right about Kid going full heel then you have tag program with Mayu/Jungle against Konami/Kid. I think Tora is winning the red belt to set-up Giulia winning it for the year end show. Giulia will win the 5 Star to set that up. Of course I could be 100% wrong but that how it feels to me James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofuture Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Tora winning really depends on when they want to pull the trigger on Utami/Giulia which is their biggest money match right now. Do they want it by the end of the year or sometime next year when they can have a bigger gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather Kyona take the time to heal properly which would put her return closer to November/December. It took her a while to even get the necessary surgeries and I heard she was not as big/muscular when she was at Hana's Memorial show. The situation does feel like a setup to fully turn Kid though I honestly think that does nothing good for her right now in the long term. 15 hours ago, J.H. said: I think Tora is winning the red belt to set-up Giulia winning it for the year end show.

I want Natsuko to win, but it would be a somewhat odd choice to have Utami's reign end just after she finally got the major match she needed to cement herself as top level. Utami/Giulia can easily still be saved for next year by just having Utami have a long reign. Natsuko throwing a monkey wrench into things would be more interesting, but I'm not sure they would trust her at the top for even a short time, especially as they keep doing shows in bigger buildings.
