Near 4 hour comp of Roddy Piper with Mid-Atlantic film footage of him vs Flair about 50 minutes in. If I copied the link right it should take you right to it.

This match might have dodged a bullet as after her match with Saori Anou, Saya Kamitani revealed that she blacked out midway through the match and doesn't remember anything. She just tweeted that she went to the hospital. Considering Stardom is seemingly hush-hush about head injuries, Kamitani publicly mentioning the hospital visit could be a good sign. Even if she's clear, they might shorten this match as a precaution.

Saya Kamitani won the Tokyo Sports Pro Wrestling MVP, which seemed like a formality after OZAWA got hurt. To celebrate, Stardom reupload the playlist that they had up earlier in the year with the addition of Kamitani's matches with AZM and Momo Watanabe. Both of those matches are worth watching if you haven't seen them already.

I'm surprised you don't see fans making timestamps in the comments or making playlists that are more targeted and organized. Granted, it shouldn't be up to others but you would think you would find more of that.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4

Somewhat surprising that this place lasted after the last GWE poll. I don't think Smarkschoice lasted long after they ran their poll. That being said, there is a real feeling with this place that someone cares enough to pay to keep the lights on but don't care enough to fix the burnt out or broken light bulbs. Personally, within the last year I find that I enjoy watching wrestling more if I ignore online discourse. Even if you get past the tribalism, the number of people who have interesting takes keeps shrinking. The only good reason to keep checking in anywhere is the odd chance that someone has found some new footage. -
A playlist of pretty much every LLPW commercial release from 1992 through 1995. Not a lot of Kandori singles matches but a good sample size of her lower profile work.

This was more pretty good than great. While they didn't outright blow any spots they definitely looked out of sync with each other, certainly more than they expect to be. A bit more surprising was how they both were running on fumes for the last few minutes. Worth the watch if your curious but don't go in with big expectations.

This clocks in at 4+ hours so I imagine that has a fair bit of new/unedited stuff: TIMESTAMPS~! in the pinned comment:

When this list was made this match was only available in short highlight form, about 30 seconds. It wasn't until the early 00's that this match was available in full. Jaguar/Lioness inclusion, along with Meltzer's rating of it, were mocked because they both based it on a 5+ minute clip of the match.
-
Stardom has temporarily uploaded some of Saya Kamitani's biggest matches from this year. They even put them into a handy playlist. If you haven't already checked out her work this year now is the time.
-
The motivation for AJW wrestlers working the style that they did was that they didn't think that they would get noticed any other way. Osamu Nishimura in the 00's was able to take a dated style and adapt it to the style of the time with the result being that he got really over by having some tremendous matches.
-
To preview their Wonder of Stardom title match on Saturday, Stardom up loaded the Starlight Kid vs. Tomoka Inaba match from opening night of the 5 Star Grand Prix. One of the better matches from the whole tournament.

New Japan ran multiple dome shows in the 90's when the Japanese economy was more screwed up than it is now. Stardom is doing record attendance, Noah is doing well hitching their wagon to OZAWA, even All Japan has done well when one of their younger wrestlers get hot.
