Mai choked Miku unconscious in their preview tag last week. Now she headbutted her and put her in the STF again. Same move she finished her with to take the white belt at this year's show.

First Dream will end with Miku Aono beating Mai Sakurai with her own finisher and I will be here for it

Utami being a goofball and completely psyching out GoChika about the thing she's most proud of

(also important correction, apparently it's 21kg)

Lmaooo got her

Sensational new episode of my favorite series, Dad and Mom REACT to Komomo "no second takes" Minami's promos.

Their interior monologue must be something like Look reassuring... be supportive... don't laugh

Four rows cleared easy, that's some quality chair bowling

They're going after each other in this one, more than Mai and Miku! But my favorite bit is Yuzuki flailing her arms when Seri handles her like a wrestling dummy.

Nozaki has done quite a lot with Yuuka here (she doesn't get up there for every match). That smile when Yuuka kicks out, like she's surprised/proud.

Oh hey Nozaki/Yuuka is not an easy squash. They've worked against each other recently, but it took me until this singles match to realize their gears have an almost identical color scheme.

Yuuka has always been somewhat heelish. Maybe something brewing there (purple is a villain's color after all)

Megaton turns the tables on Shinno and applies the Scorpion … Death … Lock!?!??

Sound up for the flying knee, rewatch for Tommy and Mayu's reactions

Mayu and Yuzuki being each other's cheerleaders is always very cute

Mayu gets tricked into taking Nozaki machine gun chops through the power of psychology

Are we getting mean Utami? She talked down to GoChika like she wasn't a worthy opponent and then gave her the squeeze

She loves it when a plan comes together

Utami must feel really good about her neck if she's doing Danielson style corner dropkicks on random house shows

One very good thing about the ring side camera is how well the mic picks up the sound of the strikes, and tonight people have decided to lay them in. The bird is throwing heat

Sparkly
