Stardom returns to Korakuen, and while the crowd was small, it’s great to have them back. These big shows have been about as reliable a couple of hours of entertainment as you can get in recent times, so let’s see if post-world going to shit, they can keep that good run going.

While I am still lagging woefully behind on real-world Ice Ribbon, this review does catch me up to the shows they’ve put on their niconico channel. So, I think that counts as an achievement, no? Anyway, it’s another party with P, and we all know those are good for a laugh.

No, you’re still reviewing month old Ice Ribbon! I will eventually catch-up. Just give me a year or so.

Show number two of Stardom’s busy weekend and, once again, we had an unannounced card. It was their last stop before Korakuen, though, so they were going to have to sort something out.

The Stardom return continued as they put together a two-show weekend to build to significant events in Korakuen, Osaka and Nagoya. While the cards were still unannounced going in, they had a lot of matches to set-up, so you could guarantee there was going to be a few interesting wrinkles.

I am pushing ahead with the Ice Ribbon catch-up in the hope that I can at least get close to being up to date some time this year. We’ve got through the big title shot, so let’s calm things down a bit with one of P’s Parties.

We’re finally there! The title match that Ice Ribbon has been building to for longer than they planned (thanks COVID) and which I’ve been dancing around for an extra month because I’m so far behind. Sadly, being far behind apparently makes it impossible for me to watch this via niconico’s PPV gimmick (feel free to point me in the right direction if I’m wrong), so I had to find the Samurai version. That means a couple of matches were clipped, but it’s nothing too egregious.

Are you ready for another party with P? You better be.

For the first time since lockdown ended, we have a Tokyo Joshi show with a couple of announced matches! It’s time for Raku to finally step into her role as a main eventer while the two Yukis do battle over the right to face Yuka. Gosh, that could get confusing, couldn’t it?

Yes, I’m still nearly a month behind on Ice Ribbon. In my defence, there is a lot of wrestling. Also, I haven’t been paying for PPVs, so I’m only able to watch the shows when they’re uploaded to niconico, in which case I’m closer to being caught up than you’d think! So, shove that in your pipe and smoke it.
