dragonzombie Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Kenzo appeared at AJPW and his wife..Ogawa beat up Kenzo. AJPW on Amazon prime. Hideki Suzuki and Shinya Aoki will participate in the AJPW vid distribution. The AJPW Amazon Prime shows are produced by Kenso and will feature Hustle and MMA guys or so? Seems it's just All Japan Pro Wrestling Delivery.. the another world of AJPW. Shows are 1 hour and 29 mins. Edited December 7, 2020 by D.Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this has revealed to me that there is a shitload of indie wrestling on Prime... until I started trying to watch some of it and it was revealed that none of it has episodes available for some reason. Or you have to pay for it. I did manage to turn on Ultra Pro Wrestling and RISE though. There's also some shoots with Prichard, documentaries (I just found The Trade about Sick Nick Mondo) and of course your WWE and Vice stuff.

dragonzombie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) Shows are like early Hustle except better matches. One of the announcers of AJPW 90s does the commentary. Was already taped long ago. I guess later on they will have actual crowds. Edited December 8, 2020 by D.Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spontaneous Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Who is booking AJPW currently? I saw someone elsewhere claim Shuji Kondo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Twitter thinks it's Shuji Ishikawa. I haven't seen any proof yet. Tajiri and few others will coach new trainees and Suwama will for the women. The women will be trained inheriting the Royal Road, well Suwama's interpretation of the Royal Road. They will also have to be more pretty than the men. Kenzo does AJPW on Amazon Prime with probably tv writers. The Amazon Prime show is separate universe, so you dont really have to follow both. The reason AJPW created the new show is that they want to tap into the growing media content market. Gonna need more than just attendance to make money. Could expect regular AJPW to become more package pro wrestling like the Puroresu love Muto era but instead of western ideas and elements.. more from borrowing ideas and elements from Japanese 90's promotions and other eras. IWA Japan and FMW had women divisions, while WAR had 6 man tags. Anyway as for Yusuke...he could end up in DDT or NOAH. But not everyone gets picked up.

Spontaneous Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 https://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.php?id=142010 I know this isn't the most credible source but this article says Tajiri is head booker for AJPW. #firetajiri But honestly, whomever it is kind of sucks.

dragonzombie Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) Yeah it's probably Tajiri. With maybe Wada below him. Edited December 8, 2020 by D.Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horangi Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Kind of looking forward to Kohei Sato in All Japan, but that's me remembering him from around 2005/06 and haven't seen anything since...how is he these days? Hope Kento and Yuma win the tag titles, but am pulling for Suwama for the Triple Crown, only because I still have a faint hope Jake will finally get the big win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’re not putting the title right back on Kento (ugh—that’s why he needs to win the tag belts), then Jake is the only guy who makes sense. Yuma would be fresh, though, and not undeserving. Or, right now, an outsider could work. I wouldn’t be mad at Yuji Hino, Triple Crown Champion, for instance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonzombie Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) First that show then Sumo Hall. Seems they will booking using older male and female talent with maybe legends in crowd and cam dunno. Full card for first show in the link. Interesting the first two matches use older Joshi but in whatever performance match means Megumi Kudo vs Shark Tsuchiya Cutie Suzuki vs Rumi Kazama Edited December 11, 2020 by D.Z 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Smart. Is she still retiring (did she already retire?!)? She's so fucking smooth. I hope she reconsiders because she's one of the best joshi wrestlers I'm aware of outside of Stardom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
