OK Marilyn Manson.
Just the thought of binge drinking sake is giving me heartburn but I guess whiskey isn't better in that regard and if a liquor doesn't give you heartburn, it'll give you a stomach ache. And it wouldn't be fun if this was a White Claw match.
Watch GCW do a White Claw match now.

In Memoriam: Shozo ‘Strong’ Kobayashi (1940-2021) | NEW JAPAN PRO-WRESTLING
Shozo Kobayashi, better known to wrestling fans as “Strong” Kobayashi in IWE, WWWF and NJPW rings, passed away on December 31 2021, it was announced yesterday. He was 81.A dedicated wrestling fan who got involved in weight lifting at...
Strong Kobayashi passed away at 81 years of age. The article covers his history a bit. Really important figure.
key things here are everyone is taking temperory pay cuts but even then just the merch money is more than they'd get in other japanese companies.
There's a hilarious section at the end about Mutoh and his demands for the WK match.

Kevin Kelly in his hotel room in Tokyo rn probably.
since @Slayer is ducking chat lately ("work" yeah sure) I'll mention here that I've watched the Dragon Gate shows up through the end of 2021. Fantastic stuff. They're going on all cylinders and I really recommend it to everyone to jump on.
The stuff with Shun Skywalker building to him fucking over his stablemates and becoming more and more twisted was fantastic and done in a way very different than almost any other DG angle. Really appreciated that.
the SB KENTo Vs Jacky Kamei matches were all great and Kamei especially has a lot of potential to be a big star. This is one of the best crops of younger talent they've had in years and they seem to be using them a lot better than they normally do as well.
KAI/YAMATO was really good although the finish was a bit overkill/finisher spam for me but considering the length of the feud I can forgive it to an extent. Very interested in seeing how KAI does given the chance to run with the ball.
I know a bit about the unit shuffle that happens in January and it all sounds great. If only certain other companies would freshen things up like this!

LEAVE THE MEMORIES ALONE!
catching up more on AJPW in 2021. The Royal Road tournament was fantastic. Shotaro Ashino was super impressive. Jake Lee has really grown into his role as champion and as a heel. He's clearly got a more serious boma-ye era Nakamura vibe going that works really well.
the 10/17 Lee/Miyahara draw was excellent. Lee dominating the match and working over the arm and Miyahara making a desperate last minute comeback was really different to most Miyahara stuff. It just makes it sadder how Lee's run ended though.

Starting March 1st, fully vaccinated and boostered travelers will only need to quarantine for three days after entering Japan. New Japan Cup starts on March 6th so there's a chance we might get some exciting international talent!

Genuinely curious what the 48 man New Japan Cup is going to look like, both in terms of participant and tournament format.
It's a good sign, at least that there's going to be a good chunk of outside talent. Although if not, lord helps us cause they had a hell of a time doing 32 man tournaments the last few years!

They're using the jr heavys in it apparently but that still leaves a lot of room so yeah they definitely need some outside talent or the first round will just be filler.
