J.H. Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 The nearfall exchange in Poi v. SLK was fun and SLK using that kneeling pikedriver to set-up her Tiger Suplex was nasty. SLK had to win the High Speed after losing her White Belt challenge. Poor Himeka, last she was a finalist and this year she sits at 0 points and lost to Fukigen Death. We still have Utami/Syuri III to look forward to in Blue Corner James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She straight up pulled Natsupoi's head up to emphasize she could have won with it. I agree that Kid needed something with all the momentum she has been gaining with the heel turn. Mayu talked about maybe challenging for the belt after one of the earlier GP shows so I can see a big title match between them in the next couple of months. 2 hours ago, J.H. said: Poor Himeka, last she was a finalist and this year she sits at 0 points and lost to Fukigen Death.

I hope Iroha/Konami is the Tenryu/Hashimoto G1 98 of this tourney i.e. they better stiff the hell outta each other James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I've been saying that STARDOM needed a lone wolf character and Hazuki fits that mold perfectly! James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wish they would push her a little stronger. I think she is one of the more charismatic members of DDM possibly the most though at this point Syuri has to take it it for personality. Konami isn't normally a stiff striker though I have few issues with that changing for that match. Honestly thinking of this mostly makes me sad Momo and Iroha aren't in the same block. 15 minutes ago, D.Z said: Hide contents Not sure what unit Hazuki will join. Stars? Independent?

Oedo Tai could use a higher tier wrestler, but STARS is down to 3 active members at the moment. That needs to change sooner than later and all hints of Lady C say she goes to DDM or CA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the gimmick Stardom's so unless they form a relationship Fukigen Death probably wouldn't show up in AEW. That said, its Yoneyama she could easily show up as herself or as anything and probably be successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not knowing all the politics but given that they are owned by the same people who own NJPW I would think that could be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Men Dying Slow Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) Part of me laments nobody photoshopping Rossy onto the Cody gif but another part isn't entirely sure where Hibiki would fit into the Stardom picture if it were as clean-cut as that. But seeing as practially every other joshi fed besides Tokyo Joshi is one big network in itself I can't imagine them going anywhere else. Or maybe my brain just isn't cut out for this kind of news this early in the day Will throw a fifty dollar bill into the church collection basket for Saya Iida and Hibiki beating the heck out of each other, however.

nofuture Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Mei Hoshizuki would seem like a lock for Stardom, I'm not sure with the other two. As for Stardom's matches at the New Japan dome shows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nofuture Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Pretty surprsing, Mirai is a good talent a bit stuck in the TJPW midcard. It's easy (and at this point almost lazy) to say Stardom is going to sign her, but I think working with new people will really help her develop.
