Stardom usually gets full shows up pretty quickly, at least by my standards, given their resources and that they go to the trouble of subtitling all promos. I want to say full shows are generally up within a week or so, but you can check their Twitter feed as they post when every match goes up. That should give you a sense of timing. Stardom World is the only joshi site I subscribe to, but you can follow other promotions that don't have sub sites through the puroresudream site. Donsem and others may have some recs for other companies's subscription offerings.

Are you implying his facial expressions suck? You have not watched Tim Duncan sell a foul call.

Loved the opening Brock/Roman angle. Both looked tremendous throwing all those shots, and Brock looks dominant as hell at the end. Especially standing on the steps as Roman is down and out. Big fan of that that visual. Its unrealistic and unfair to expect that they can approach the Mania 31 match, but I'm stoked as hell to see them try.

Thanks, interesting to hear.

Apparently Kris Wolf finished up with Stardom today. Anyone know more about that situation?

Can you please go away? Immediately and forever.

This is great.

Matt, please leave me out for this week as I'm away. Back in next week.

You're really getting me excited at the idea of doing this myself. Is there a comprehensive listing of what's available chronologically on the network from this era?

Cena's promo was terrific. Between that and Roman's segment they've done a great job building those two matches.

Loved that opening segment. Not sure where its going tonight or long term, but its very different from the standard opening quarter hour promo and I'm intrigued to see things play out.

Agreed. Very much exceeded expectations.

It was. Also, let there never be any doubt that it is irrelevant who eventually beats Asuka in a match, because her constant dancing will have long since overcome the streak.

This recap of the recent Usos/New Day promo has been the highlight of the show.

I believe she's actually Kyoko Kimura's daughter. Hope that doesn't spoil the day though.

NJ posted a fun video with clips of all prior NJ Cup finals. They've also finally uploaded the entire Australia tour. Looking forward to watching that.

Thanks, looking forward to it. Check this one out when you can -- Lex Luger & Tully Blanchard vs. Bob & Brad Armstrong (Crockett Cup 4/11/1987)

I watched the anniversary show today and thought it was very solid but perhaps sub-par for a New Japan big show. Taichi & Makabe absolutely exceeded expectations (or Naito & Suzuki really did), and Okada reigned in Ospreay more than I expected. Sanada/Yoshi-Hashi was a major disappointment. The Jr. Tag Title match was fine but nothing special. In a vacuum its probably a good show but they've set the bar high enough that I wanted a bit more.

Today is a glorious, good old fashioned work-from-home snow day. Work permitting, after catching up on a pair of recent matches from Japan that I've missed, do I want to dive into the recent Coliseum Video or All Star Wrestling on the Network?
