Rambles about the wonderful world of wrestling.
One day I will run out of Mania Weekend shows that I want to review. That shall not be this day. It would have been a bit weird not to check in on Stardom when I watch everything else they do. Plus, there was no chance I was missing Momo vs Utami.

With Korakuen in the rear window, Stardom’s next stop is the good old US of A. Before they get there, though, they’ve got a stop over in Niigata with what, on paper, looked like a pretty straightforward card. Let’s see if they can surprise us.

On Stardom’s final show before their March trip to Korakuen they were finishing up putting the building blocks in place for the multiple title matches ahead. On top of that, Hana’s gang are going after the Artist of Stardom belts. Sound like fun? It does to me!

Stardom’s second show from the 21st had an intriguing card. Not only did we get Natsu and Miyagi challenging for the Goddesses’ Titles, but Stardom put on a ‘Battle of the Super Heavyweights’ between Viper and Goya Kong. Throw in a decent undercard, and this had the potential to be a load of fun!

After a bit of a break (although there was a lucha show during which some Stardom talent put on a decent match), Stardom is back with two shows in one day. Nothing like being eased back into it, eh?

Stardom ventured to Nagoya where they’d put together a fantastic card for the occasion. Not only did they bless us with Kyona vs Watanabe (a match which has been getting all the hype), but it was backed-up by Artist Of Stardom and SWA Title matches. It’s fun for all the family.

Having already worked a show on the afternoon of the 24th, Stardom turned around and did another one in the evening. I can’t imagine wrestling a match a month, never mind two in a day, so this always amazes me. Adding to the fun is the presence of Women Of Honor title match as the new champ, Mayu Iwatani, defends her belt against Konami and her unbeatable Triangle Lancer. How exciting

Towards the end of February, the Stardom roster made their way to Osaka where they were doing one of their two show days. This was the first one, so if they had all decided to take it easy, well, to be honest, I wouldn’t have blamed them. History suggested that wasn’t likely, though.

Stardom’s February trip to Korakuen Hall brings with it a new member for Oedo Tai, another youngster going after Hazuki’s High Speed title and a big tag team main event. On paper, this show had the potential to be very good, did it live up to that? Time to find out.
