05.11.2025 15:37 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Bushiroad providing English subtitles for one of their wrestling companies? Never heard of such a thing, clearly impossible to do.
05.11.2025 15:36 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I watched some of the old produce shows recently and that madman (affectionate?)(no) didn't just translate backstage promos in some pretty fun ways, he also did the in-ring talking and stuff like the entire Natsu Sumire live commentary during one match. I get why he stopped, but it was nice to have.
05.11.2025 15:10 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I mean I'd love to have even halfway decent English subtitles back. But aside from being in Japanese, these ones don't even seem as good as the Youtube autosubs.
But they're also optional, English commentaries even more because so far they're in separate videos.
Things are happening with Stardom World. They're using Vimeo to host the files now (still only 720p โฆ why), some kind of Japanese autosub and I think the section for English Commentary is new as well.
Also some shows appear to have gone missing, because Stardom World.

04.11.2025 13:10 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 2 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 1This was the first show with a Miku & Nao tag team since their Ice Ribbon days almost 4 years ago. Because you can remove Giulia from a company, but never Ice Ribbon lore.
Also: Yuzuki's tag challenge at Korakuen is the second anniversary of her debut match (and yes I somehow remember that date)
Rea kept hogging the mic so Yuzuki had to get her own and then Rea did this

I'm here for a champion who (later) says "I know you. I like you. You don't know what you're getting into when you go up against me"
Miku strong

04.11.2025 13:54 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oh hey, Yuuka finally has a cagematch profile! Long overdue for someone who was this well-rounded from day 1
04.11.2025 13:51 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0It's a weird promotion haha. Cohaku is one of their few young talents who are actual roster members, she won their tournament and the belt when she was the first one in a long time to beat Saya.
Rather than build on that, WAVE's booker GAMI put the belt on Itsuki Aoki, who isn't part of the roster.
Kouki working ringside, that's good to see.
Also a rebound into a flying superman punch?

Marigold's first real event post PPV starting out with a late Halloween scare, a 3way opener without Komomo Minami or Nao Ishikawa in it
04.11.2025 13:17 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0The way GAMI has handled the WAVE title since Saya lost it, she actually might just give it to her again three months from now
04.11.2025 13:06 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0God i hope not. Can't see how she makes it through a tournament with the state of her knees.
04.11.2025 13:00 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I think I read (machine translation, might be wrong!) an older wrestler say the Momo match would be her last chance to make an impression because voting starts or ends mid November.
04.11.2025 08:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I don't think Stardom can resist the visual of Saya three-belts standing tall at the Tokyo Dome. Would be happy to be proven wrong!
