The Meiko Satomura vs Unagi Sayaka match from February 16 was outstanding. Great physicality from start to finish. Those two wrestlers absolutely owned Korakuen Hall this day.

Nanae Takahashi vs Rea Seto from February 16 MARIGOLD show was a great match. Real hard hitting bigger vs smaller wrestler match, real desperation in Seto's fighting against the odds. I thought it was fantastic.

Looking forward to getting back to Perth, it feels like a long time since my last dash from one side of this wide brown land to the other.

Just as good on a rewatch as it was back in February, Tetsuya Endo vs Manabu Soya for the GHC National Championship on 11/2 was such a great pro wrestling match.

Another year passes, another year where Hiroshima Carp are just terrible. Glad to know in these unstable times, some things just don't change.

I like that there is still the faint outline of the Olympic rings and Paralympic crescents on the athletics track at the Tokyo National Stadium.

A memorial tattoo on the track.

It's such a pleasure to revisit the poem 'Clancy of the Overflow' every few years. It has such a joyful rhythm, I really love it. Thanks once more to The Banjo for creating such a joy.

I like Arisu Endo's style and energy. I hope to see great success and fantastic matches from her in future.

If I ever win the lottery I'm going to open a pro wrestling bar in Sydney like the Sportiva Arena in Nagoya.

A bar with a ring in it with regular matches happening at least once a week.

To fill people's minds with pro wrestling happiness, what a dream.

Takeshi Masada is great to watch, he has an impressive wrestling style and a superstar energy.

As unfathomable as it may seem to us all, I must sadly announce to the world that I was once again overlooked for the Gold Logie again.

Great Sage @mr2046.bsky.social · Aug 5

Sometimes I first see a pro wrestler and I don't think much of them for whatever reason but in time they can win me over and then I appreciate them all the more.

Other pro wrestlers that I just don't dig continue year after year to unimpress, and my mind is never changed.

Yuji Nagata is just so excellent to watch, no matter what match he's in.

Antonio Honda is pro wrestling happiness.
