Masked mans name is El Cielo

Thinking that it will be Susumu challenging Kikuta for Osaka.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 7d

Impressed with a KOG that will have even fewer TV matches than last year.
Running in October with finals on Osaka night 1 & title match on night 2, or in December for the 2 Sambo Hall nights was right there.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 8d

Yes. Sorry.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 8d

He angled for it (the payday) but they said no.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 8d

I’m not going to be able to go to Osaka for Gate of Destiny due to work commitments.

Mochizuki Dojo ends here.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 18d

Yeah

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · 21d

fwiw, Sugiura was always the plan. Likely would have been an in ring angle to set up whatever this match on the Noah show would have been had Ozawa not got hurt instead of backstage though.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 14

Everyone that could make the weight from Mochizuki Dojo has had their first Brave Gate challenge this year. Pretty big accomplishment.

Akihiro was born over 85 kg so not gonna happen for him, I don’t think.

Monster Express song was a MC ripoff so precedent is there.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 13

100% a skid row reference. It’s always the 80s hair metal reference

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 12

They are actually saying rattlesnake shake.

Music also sounds like the 悪冠一色 theme.

Endlessly amused by KAI also telling me to absolutely not call them SNAKE SKULLS and then that’s all they say in the song.

RIP to the All Japan kid. So tragic.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

When he became the establishment, rather than the rebellion. (When he got old)

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

In Japanese, anyway.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

我 Ga = we
蛇 Ja = Snake
髑髏　Dokuro = Skull

Take a shot every time I accidentally say dokoro since it’s a common word I say every day whereas I only talk about skulls 5 days out of the week.

我蛇髑髏
がじゃどくろ

Gajadokuro

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

Any single one of these things:

The ring gear
The entrance music
The hairline

Would be enough to sink a regular wrestler. KAMEI overcomes all of it. Hes incredible.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

End of the day it doesn’t matter since it’s a Japanese term, so the spacing is purely for stylization unlike 悪冠一色 which was butchered Chinese that got further butchered when romanized from the Japanese pronunciation.

悪冠一色/アーガンイーソー was meant to be È Guān Yī Sè which Ho Ho insists means nothing.

jae @dgjae.bsky.social · Sep 4

It’s an 悪冠一色 situation where they will just be using 我蛇髑髏 so writing it in English will just be literal. I asked how to stylize it (Gajadokuro, Gaja Dokuro, Ga Ja Dokuro) and KAI told me use the first one. So I’ll use that. Or maybe GAJADOKURO.
