Wrestling Omakase is back for our most absolute jam packed and indeed longest episode ever! John is joined by returning guest Arametha as they start with 2 hours and 40 minutes just on the hottest promotion in Japan at the moment, the World Wonder Ring STARDOM! It starts with full reviews of their 7/21 & 7/24 shows from Sapporo & Korakuen respectively, as they go over yet more outstanding matches from STARDOM's increasingly large catalogue- SLK/Anou, Saya/Poi, AZM/Bozilla and more! Then they dig into a full, lengthy preview of the upcoming 5 STAR GP, which kicks off by the time many of you will be listening to this (but not to worry, we cover the entire tournament in detail including every participant and all the other stops on the tour, and spend very little time on the opening night on purpose). They break down the final night of each block and how it might help us figure out who has the best chance of advancing, go over various picks to win outright, list most anticipated matches and even rank the four blocks from anticipation/excitement levels.Next it's back to New Japan to talk nights 3-6 of the already underway G1 Climax. They discuss what are becoming the two big stories of the tournament: largely great matches and largely flagging attendance. Hear their thoughts on Finlay/Taichi, Tsuji/Yuya, ZSJ/Umino, Tanahashi/Finlay, ZSJ/ELP, Umino/Narita, Takeshita/Shingo and much more! Then they give a look ahead at what's coming up in the following week of G1 shows, including a look at how attendance is shaping up for each night.Then it's back to joshi for two more topics, starting with a full review of Tokyo Joshi's 7/21 Summer Sun Princess show from Ota Ward Gym (which slightly outdrew one of the G1 nights!). John & Arametha discuss an awesome tag title match, some comedy that may not land with John's significant other at least, music vs. wrestling idol body requirements and much more. They also give a brief preview of the upcoming Tokyo Princess Cup.Finally, this marathon episode wraps up with a quick preview of the somehow also upcoming Marigold Dream Star GP. They give their thoughts on who is a contender to win each block and the tournament in general as well as some of their most anticipated matches.
