Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada – Wrestle Kingdom 11 (2017)This is where it all begins.In part one of our watch-along series, we dive into the match that shook up the wrestling world and put Kenny Omega on a whole different level. It's Omega vs Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 11. This was Kenny's first shot at the big one after winning the G1 in 2016 and moving up to heavyweight. Okada was already established as the guy in New Japan, the standard bearer.The expectations were high and somehow they went above and beyond. This was the match that introduced a lot of Western fans to modern NJPW. We talk about what made this match such a moment in time and how wild it was to see Omega risk it all on the biggest stage. For Emily, it's her first time seeing it, and she shares her honest reactions seeing this epic unfold in real time.For a full episode archive (AD FREE) and exclusive content visit CWKPOD.COMMake sure and follow the show and leave us a 5 Star Frog Splash of a review!Be sure to Follow us on all of our socials @CruisingwithKayfabe on Facebook and Instagram, @ItsMongo and @CruisingWithKayfabe_Emily on TikTok.

STRIGGA & Dylan return with a deep dive into New Japan Pro Wrestling's Dominion, breaking down the key moments from NJPW's annual big summer event in Osaka. The main focus in this show is on questionable booking decisions, but also on character development and how very little of this development ever matters. With the results of the show and the actual good match quality in mind, they analyze what it says about New Japan's current direction. The conversation heats up with a look at the growing influence of the House of Torture and ongoing shifts in faction dynamics. How are these developments shaping the landscape heading into the summer? This leads straight to an early speculation about who might be the favorites going into the G1 Climax and how this could shape the second half of 2025 and the road to the Tokyo Dome. Disclaimer: The final 15 minutes of the show see Dylan mourn the death of his grandpa Ken.

In this week's Flagship Flashback episode of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast from five years ago (6-19-2020), PWTorch editor Wade Keller was joined by PWTorch VIP analyst Todd Martin. Todd and Wade begin with Todd's analysis of the first few New Japan shows since returning from pandemic hiatus, then a review of Smackdown including the urination dousing with Sheamus and Jeff Hardy, a review of Raw with the Drew McIntyre-R-Truth angle and the Christian-Randy Orton tease, a review of AEW Dynamite including a theory on where Cody and Arn Anderson pairing was going, and a review NXT on USA including a move toward more zany comedy, followed by some NXT-AEW ratings talk, and finally some UFC talk to round out the current events section.Then the show concludes with a sample of this week's Mailbag edition of the VIP podcast "The Fix" with Todd and Wade discussing a reported proposed trade between the WWF and WCW in 1992 involving four very big names and then a discussion of wrestlers in movies, and a bonus topic of favorite Simpson's episodes, new observations rewatching "Game of Thrones," and what's next on Todd's binge-watch list.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.

Welcome to the Squared Circle Podcast! I am your host Marie Shadows!Help support the content:https://marieshadows.substack.comhttps://youtube.com/squaredcirclepodcast/joinhttps://buymeacoffee.com/marieshadowshttps://instagram.com/marieshadowshttps://marieshadows-shop.fourthwall.com***Marie Shadows returns with a fiery, no-holds-barred podcast tackling the state of professional wrestling across AEW, NJPW, and more. From critiquing Mercedes Moné's “belt collector” run to questioning AEW's inconsistent storytelling and NJPW's baffling booking at Dominion and G1 Climax 35, Marie holds nothing back.She explores the toxic fan gatekeeping culture plaguing AEW, questions Tony Khan's public media behavior, and challenges both promotions on their failure to prioritize storytelling. Marie also offers passionate insight into how NJPW Strong could've succeeded with better leadership, and why New Japan feels like it's on “life support.”This is more than a rant—it's a reality check for the industry.Timestamps:(00:00) – Welcome and creator update(00:14) – AEW fandom gatekeeping + brand stagnation(03:00) – AEW's metrics, privacy, and delusions of growth(07:50) – AEW x CMLL criticism, bad presentation of partners(08:45) – Mercedes Moné's belt collection: harmful, not helpful(11:20) – Lack of women's promos or storyline retaliation(13:30) – AEW creative laziness with Monet vs Toni Storm(17:00) – Asking the real AEW storytelling question(22:00) – New Japan Strong mismanagement + opportunities lost(30:00) – Dominion fallout: DOUKI, Bullet Club, War Dogs(35:00) – Gabe Kidd's confusing direction + Moxley ties(42:00) – G1 35 blocks feel underwhelming and rushed(46:00) – Why NJPW must elevate new talent and stop relying on AEW
John is back yet again for another long dive through the world of Japanese professional wrestling, and boy do they have a mixed bag to discuss this week! Returning guest Velkej Bracha (@Velkej_Bracha on X), host of the ActWres Stage podcast (here's their most recent episode on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqIHVjqO6_8) joins them and starts by breaking down their recent trip to Japan, as he gives the live perspective on All Star Grand Queendom, Tetsuya Naito's final night in NJPW at Dontaku and more! Plus the two of them generally bullshit about Japan travel for a good long while because, to be honest, nobody wanted to talk about Dominion. But talk about Dominion they must, so they give a full review of a very, very bad show full of absolutely horrible and baffling booking decisions, and fair warning: John gets more than a little fired up about a few of them in particular. May wanna turn your headphones down for that part. They also discuss the quite bad looking G1 lineup and bury New Japan again for being completely unwilling to do anything fun or interesting these days.But once the badness is over, we head back to the wonderful world of the World Wonder Ring, STARDOM, for a full preview of their upcoming 6/21 show from Yoyogi, The Conversion! John & Velkej talk all about recent storylines and developments as they break down the entire card in full, so if you've heard some of the recent hype for the promotion and want a good jumping in point you might want to listen to our preview here and check out the show! Finally, they wrap up the episode by heading back to another joshi promotion, Marigold, as John gives abbreviated thoughts on some of the matches from the 6/15 & 6/16 weekend shows in Osaka & Shizuoka (including the debut of another impressive looking rookie!), before they then give a full review of the 6/17 Korakuen show, including the big Marigold vs. Marvelous interpromotional main event. Lots of thoughts on how certain Marigold wrestlers are and aren't developing, Velkej breaks some news about one right on the air, and then some discussion of their upcoming schedule and their own big tournament that's coming up, the Dream Star GP. Another packed show!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Plus we discuss Gunther's World Title win, Money in the Bank, R-Truth's return, Punk vs. Cena at Night of Champions and the King of the Ring Tournament, and the announcement that we're getting Okada vs. Omega at All In.

You waited a month for another new Omakase (if you cared at all) but don't worry, because here's one that's over four hours long!! Wow! John is joined by first time guest and longtime listener Arametha as they spend the first half hour of this show embarrassingly weebing out together. Anime! Tokusatsu! Anime cons! Iowa city names, for some reason! Once that is mercifully out of the way, the two of them head to the World Wonder Ring for 90 minutes of STARDOM talk, starting with a full review of the Natsu & Saory 10th Anniversary Show from Ota Ward Gym. They talk about the impact of the original Actwres Girlz class, Saori & Poi apparently getting free reign over Bushiroad, some theories on why the young women wrestlers of Japan seem so far ahead of the men right now and much more! Then the two of them talk about recent shows in Osaka & Kyoto plus the two May Korakuens, before finally wrapping up the STARDOM talk with a brief look ahead to the next Korakuen show coming up in the first week of June.Then they move over to New Japan for a full recap of the Best of the Super Juniors 32 tournament, including a review of the finals match between YOH and Kosei Fujita, block rankings by average star rating with thoughts on each wrestler's tournaments, and some big picture thoughts on where the booking may have struggled. Afterward they give a brief audio preview of the upcoming Dominion card as John shares some thoughts on why they're not quite as hyped for this show as some others.Next the two of them talk about DREAM STAR FIGHTING MARIGOLD, a first for Omakase, with a full review of the Marigold Shine Forever show! They discuss the diverging paths of Marigold's young wrestlers, an absolutely *incredible* debut match, Mayu Iwatani's somewhat confusing "grand slam" goal, and the retirement of Nanae Takahashi (including some brief thoughts on her overall career and some past match recommendations if you're so inclined!).Finally, because this episode just wasn't long enough already, they wrap things up with some brief King of DDT thoughts on the semifinals and an outstanding final match, plus Minoru Suzuki vs. Danshoku Dieno, because why not at this point?! If you want to hear an absolute metric ton of Japanese wrestling audio, well, you've definitely come to the right place this week!Follow Wrestling Omakase on Twitter @WrestleOmakase, or follow John on Bluesky instead @justoneenby.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Welcome to Those Days: A Michinoku Pro Retrospective!After a spring that put The Great Sasuke and Michinoku Pro on the map, it's time to see how the wrestling world followed up with this edition of Those Days! Case (https://twitter.com/_inyourcase) and Mike (https://twitter.com/fujiiheya) discuss the immediate fallout of the first Super J Cup and Ota Ward Gym with Michinoku Pro continuing to appear in New Japan during their best of the Super Juniors tour, but also wrapping up with FMW as well as a deeper relationship with Tenryu's WAR. And right as the promotion was on fire and The Great Sasuke more hot than ever…The Great Sasuke announces his retirement?!? And to conclude the summer, we look at the only Michinoku Pro show taped during this period of greater interest: “How About The Great Sasuke - UWA Reunion” from Yahaba on July 30th!A full match listing of footage covered during this episode can be found at the show post on www.voicesofwrestling.com or in the Open The Voice Gate channel on the VOW Discord.Our podcast provider, Red Circle, offers the listeners the option to sponsor the show.
