After going off on one during this show about modern wrestling, I decided to be a bit positive for the festive season and write a bit about some wrestler who I think are doing the things that Case and I begged for here.

Oh man if anyone is looking for the tonic of a really good no frills, proper pro wrestling match (like I often am), the ZSJ/Oiwa vs. Umino/Uemura match from Nov 25 does the job and then some!
If they nailed the finish it would have been amazing looking but I think I actually liked the way it went

I have two suggestions which will really turn around the fortunes of New Japan.
Suggestion 1: Umino and Uemura should now be known as "U2"
Suggestion 2: I'm kinda out on Gabe kid, but if he changed his theme music to THIS that might fix things. Mad man destination.

Just heard there is a wrestler in Sendai Girls called "Spike Nishimura" and that is the best wrestler name I've heard in years.

The great Joe Doering is battling brain cancer for the third time. An absolute legend for how he's stood up to his challenges with this over the years.

I'm sure he'll keep showing his power but donations will help.

Oh God, PAC vs Speedball was so fucking good. Overhead belly to belly's, Germans on the floor, a great flash pin near fall and a brutal decisive finish. My kind of wrestling!

Boy was I wrong.
Sadly that match was anything but "special". It was good enough. They worked hard I suppose. But it was fairly soulless.
I was hoping for so much more.

I have a feeling that a very special match is going to happen on Thursday at Korakuen Hall. Nobody is talking about it, and that's understandable but I would encourage everyone to circle it on their calendars. Regardless of your interest level in current NJPW, I think it will be must-see.

You've failed as a wrestling fan if you're not using your lunch break to get locked into KAI vs. Riiita in 2nd Round King Of Gate action with two giant moving trucks in the back of a Shizuoka warehouse.

Erick Stevens added to 16 Carat. It's a really good lineup so far. Most excited I've been for it this far out in a long time.

I think Megan Bayne's run at the moment going back & forth between AEW & Stardom, doing impactful, meaningful work while raising her profile and hitting new levels as a wrestler, is one of the really cool organic stories stories in a wrestling world that has too few of them these days.

Very few things in wrestling right now might my tastes more than a Collision in front of a compact hot crowd. Just a good bit of Saturday night wrasslin'.
