We Work Stiff's flagship podcast. Looking at all the stuff that happens in pro-wrestling (but somehow rarely focuses on any of the actual wrestling).
The Stiff Bois are here, mid Super Jnr tournament, to give an update on their teams, the key performers and stand out matches, and identify the stories they feel New Japan fans should be paying attention to as the tour moves into its most consequential stages. But before that, the lads dedicate 1 hour to kick off the pod, echoing the sentiments of Yota Tsuji, to give a state of the union address in the wake of a divisive Strong show, and confusing Gabe appearance, taking away much of the oxygen the updated Dominion card and unfolding BoSJ deserved.To join the Club or grab some merch to support the show.thestiff.club Or weworkstiff.comYou can find and follow the show:On X / twitter@weworkstiffOn Instagraminstagram.com/weworkstiff/On Redditreddit.com/r/WeWorkStiff/On Youtubeyoutube.com/@weworkstiffEmail us atweworkstiff@gmail.comPlease Listen.

The Stiff Bois are joined by @fraserjapan to bring the joyous spirit of a night at the graps in Tokyo to the sacred WWS Stiff Draft format. The lads start the show by checking in with Fraser about his experience of Dontaku and how the home crowd is responding to the heroes of the new and old generation alike. Then it is Best of Super Junior Draft and Preview time. The Bois each work to assemble a team of Jnr's that they are keen to follow this tournament and, in the process, give insights into who you all should be paying attention to in the division this May.An incredibly fun experience to record, with some draft special flourishes, we hope the fun of current day nooj fandom translates to all our Stiffies out there.To join the Club or grab some merch to support the show.thestiff.club Or weworkstiff.comYou can find and follow the show:On X / twitter@weworkstiffOn Instagraminstagram.com/weworkstiff/On Redditreddit.com/r/WeWorkStiff/On Youtubeyoutube.com/@weworkstiffEmail us atweworkstiff@gmail.comPlease Listen.

"There's a time for playing it safe and a time for... Risky Business."The Stiff Bois return to talk the big news coming out of Genesis weekend; talking Jnr Genesis, Sakura Genesis and previewing Windy City Riot. The lads start the show with an Ode to Korakuen, chat Despy the Ace, Connors character affirmation, the two Robbies and the BoSJ field. Then its on to Sneaky Snake SANADA, the now annual Dog Pound Cage Match(?), United Empire on rules and internet discourse, the Hybrid nature of NEVER, Tsuji St Elmo, Goto v Finlay and the risky business that is Shota back on top.

The Stiff Bois get to do what they love the most: preview a big show (and a nice looking Jnr show) by exploring smellness, throwing on their conspiracy caps, and debating as many logical outcomes and directions they can see. Should we expect David Finlay? Where to for Shota? How many feuds can EVIL manage? Is there a way forward for United Empire as currently positioned? Should we want more for ELP?Plus, the lads discuss the fall out to their Observer chat last week and try to offer some clarity, and they lament the take off of the Jet from NJPW.

The Bois are back to their old tricks, going looking for the peculiar angles to what was a very rich New Japan Cup. They talk the Cup as a whole, why the pick ems being predictable is a good thing, how the direction is clear in ways that are exciting, why Taichi can't win, why Yuya can't lose, and why the old guard is still so valuable. Then it's on to the Cup final and a deep discussion into the character parallels between the two men, the key distinction at the genesis which may determine their directions, and why so many still struggle with talk about these type of characters in pro wrestling; as the Stiff Bois proudly define what they think Observing Wrestling is.

The Bois have endured Tropical Cyclone Alfred, and somehow amidst the chaos seen the entire New Japan Cup. The March Smellness prediction special was pretty close to foretelling the entire Cup, and as such has done a good job of covering the lads in their absence, but now as the Final is upon us, they are jumping on the record a Final preview. The lads talk the ever evolving NJPW match construction template and what it could mean for the Final, before diving into Finlay and Shota's paths to the finals; both in the tourney and beyond. Then, the speculation begins for what may happen in the and around the match; as the angle alert sounds loud and clear.To join the Club or grab some merch to support the show.thestiff.club Orweworkstiff.comYou can find and follow the show:On X / twitter@weworkstiffOn Instagraminstagram.com/weworkstiff/On Redditreddit.com/r/WeWorkStiff/On Youtubeyoutube.com/@weworkstiffEmail us atweworkstiff@gmail.comPlease Listen.

With a slower week in NJPW, with only a few shows on the Road to New Begining (which will be discussed in our big New Begining Preview next week), the Stiff bois have decided to create a Primer for the 2024 Golden Stiffies; outlining the categories, possible nominees and process for voting on the WWS annual award show. This episode is one part refresher of the year that was, one part primer for a host of characters heading into 2025 and one part experimental dialogue with our Stiffies; all wrapped in a shameless promotion of the merits of joining the Stiff Club.

The Stiff Bois are back from Tokyo and have a lot of things to cover. In a different kind of episode the lads spend the first 1 hour and 20 minutes covering the many shows they attended in the lead up to the Dome (chatting All Japan, Big Japan, NOAH, Impact haha, DDT and TJPW), thank the many generous Stiffies they met, then spend and hour breaking down every match of Wrestle Kingdom from a live experience, spend time trying to explore the curious case of Shota Umino and thier hopes for his year ahead, talk the vibes of Wrestle Dynasty, another hour on the masterpiece that was Gabe v Kenny and main event the show with a spirited defense of Chris Charlton. A massive, reflective, conversational show, that is a little different to our usual fair (dont worry, previews and reviews of New Beginning tour will commence next week) but one that hopefully conveys the joy of Puro and the gratitude we have for all our listeners and Stiff Club members.

Off the back of an experimental episode about a seemingly nebulous topic, the Stiff Bois return to some well worn terrain to provide a full deep dive preview of Wrestling Dontaku; whilst also covering all the happenings from the road to. This is a huge show, diving deep into the characters and stories on both nights, as the New Generation start shooting company wide shots, the lads find themselves reaching for the few metamodern methods they understand to begin to speculate on the future directions of so many of the key titles and characters that populate this card.

This is not a normal episode. It's not even a normal double feature. But, after an eventful week for the show online, the Bois gather to explore the differing views on contemporary pro-wrestling through the lens of how they see pro-wresting. The result is an experimental podcast that acts as a rumination on the current NJPW approach to storytelling and the reaction of fans when this interfaces in other spaces. The goal. To explore an approach to criticism that may be useful in understanding the show's intent; an approach that could hold the key to unlocking a more considered and connected discourse moving foward.

Was the juice worth the squeeze? The Stiff Bois discuss a controversial New Japan Cup, through the lens of House of Torture, to provide HoT takes on the different types of storytelling that aid the rise of pro wrestling characters; important concepts when considering the rise of Yota Tsuji. This is a shorter and more focused episode aimed at assessing if the ends justify the means when we the ends are Gene Blasting all over the arena in a classic style Cup Final; and what these means actually are in a conventional sense. Plus, we also talk Shota's inverse failure to Tsuji, Jack Perry working the sheets, why Goto is just the best (like, the best) and we outline "elevated House of Torture".

This means a lot of talk about the United Empire heading into the Cage match. Whether its Akira's vulnerability, TJP's possible duplicity, Okhan's emerging Empire, Ospreay's absence, Cobbs Injury or Henares war, all sides of the Empire are discussed. Also, we talk ZSJ's goals for the year in New Japan and what this match with Danielson means, the changing dynamic between Okada and Tana as they battle one last time, how Hikuelo is tasking strides towards a future that we feel he could dominate, why Hair vs Hair makes the most sense for Yuya v Yota, and we start off by spending a lot of time gushing over Henare v Gabe Kidd in a war that reflected what New Japan can, and should, be.
