[SPEAKER_00]: star Grand Prix, right?

[SPEAKER_00]: Enjoy the show and thank you everyone.

02:28.564 --> 02:31.745
[SPEAKER_00]: Through the main event and one of my favorite matches of the tournament thus far.

02:32.225 --> 02:36.226
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was sci-a-eat a versus on me, so right, there's a reason I'm wearing the green hat.

02:36.746 --> 02:37.626
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the main event.

02:37.686 --> 02:41.467
[SPEAKER_00]: We got, we got a way of the green hat for the to that wear green.

02:41.607 --> 02:41.927
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

02:42.187 --> 02:46.328
[SPEAKER_00]: I would be, do they have nicknames and involucrate, whatever?

02:46.988 --> 02:47.088
[SPEAKER_00]: Um,

02:48.807 --> 02:50.668
[SPEAKER_00]: This was a match I was looking for in this tournament.

02:50.688 --> 02:55.450
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, me and me and Tommy Soray have had a bumpy ride through her time and start them.

02:55.470 --> 03:03.093
[SPEAKER_00]: But ever since she's come back, clean slate, let's see what she got and she has been really solid, really strong.

03:03.453 --> 03:09.375
[SPEAKER_00]: This was my favorite five star Grand Prix main event so far of this year's tournament.

03:09.455 --> 03:12.737
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this would be better than Poe and Karara.

03:12.857 --> 03:14.537
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this was better than Poe and Tora.

03:14.677 --> 03:16.118
[SPEAKER_00]: I just really liked what they did here.

03:17.498 --> 03:21.921
[SPEAKER_00]: All I wanted was power and chops, power and chops, power and chops.

03:22.941 --> 03:23.641
[SPEAKER_00]: What did I get?

03:23.862 --> 03:28.564
[SPEAKER_00]: I got power and chops, power and chops, and more power and chops.

03:28.704 --> 03:33.407
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, I couldn't really ask for much more.

03:33.667 --> 03:36.389
[SPEAKER_00]: I couldn't really ask for anything more.

03:36.569 --> 03:38.170
[SPEAKER_00]: This is exactly

03:39.150 --> 03:54.603
[SPEAKER_00]: what you want from these two whether it was in the ring or outside the ring they did a good spot where they run into the crowd and then they do the power spots that was a lot of fun that's how to engage the crowd especially on a show like this right here where where were they today they were in

03:57.986 --> 03:58.747
[SPEAKER_00]: Fukushima.

03:58.807 --> 04:01.169
[SPEAKER_00]: So like you're not in a big venue.

04:01.209 --> 04:02.190
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not in a big building.

04:02.230 --> 04:03.111
[SPEAKER_00]: That's how this goes.

04:04.432 --> 04:09.156
[SPEAKER_00]: But you are playing to the strengths you're playing to the crowd of these two really brought it.

04:09.416 --> 04:12.399
[SPEAKER_00]: You get back in the ring, chop, chop, chop, chop.

04:13.200 --> 04:19.345
[SPEAKER_00]: As I wrote real music, but the biggest spot of this match was the nastiest spot I've seen in this tournament yet.

04:19.846 --> 04:21.707
[SPEAKER_00]: And one of the nastiest I've seen this year.

04:23.036 --> 04:30.645
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry, launched Eda off the top rope onto the apron for one of the nastiest apron bumps I have seen.

04:31.086 --> 04:32.628
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, Eda seems fine.

04:32.828 --> 04:37.493
[SPEAKER_00]: She didn't seem all that altered from it, but I was, as a viewer, I was.

04:38.194 --> 04:40.236
[SPEAKER_00]: That was crazy crazy spot.

04:40.656 --> 04:43.518
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, we played to the back injury throughout the match.

04:43.919 --> 04:46.301
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, gets her in a torture rack later on.

04:46.341 --> 04:48.943
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's working and working, but she fights out.

04:49.243 --> 04:52.365
[SPEAKER_00]: Then they're trading shops and shops and shops at one point.

04:52.946 --> 04:58.390
[SPEAKER_00]: Eta is really floating over the ring or as Syrae is chopping her in the corner.

04:58.430 --> 04:59.351
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a great spot.

04:59.571 --> 05:00.632
[SPEAKER_00]: I really enjoyed that.

05:04.502 --> 05:25.727
[SPEAKER_00]: this this was a great showing for on me like eat a gave it her all um but on it's a black hole slam that got a good pop out of me for a good uh two count then eat it comes back with a big time Larry and one of my favorite things that eat it does and you can now see it with Yuri he may in her dropkick is you know because she's learning from stars

05:26.387 --> 05:30.733
[SPEAKER_00]: is you could see either, you know, using her Lariat style to take down a wrestler.

05:30.753 --> 05:33.977
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what she was doing here with Omni at one point.

05:33.997 --> 05:38.002
[SPEAKER_00]: I really liked that, but she had a big Lariat where they kind of just bounced off one another.

05:38.383 --> 05:39.344
[SPEAKER_00]: That was really cool.

05:39.745 --> 05:42.148
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Omni Sarai hit a big

05:43.209 --> 06:00.653
[SPEAKER_00]: or sorry, a blue thunder for a great near fall before hitting the thunderbolt planting eat on her head and getting the victory moving to four points on the night to an hour and sending Saita to believe oh and to the far

06:02.374 --> 06:03.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, she didn't own two as far.

06:03.975 --> 06:04.415
[SPEAKER_00]: It's tough.

06:04.695 --> 06:12.598
[SPEAKER_00]: Start for Saida, but Saida living up to the MVP hopes that I think a lot of people have for her, which is really, really cool.

06:13.158 --> 06:15.519
[SPEAKER_00]: And this match really, really solid.

06:15.679 --> 06:18.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, my favorite main event thus far.

06:19.561 --> 06:25.246
[SPEAKER_00]: Then go to what I thought was an incredible stretch of matches starting with Nazi-Poy versus Tom Okinawa.

06:25.606 --> 06:37.837
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this tournament just, we should just keep singing the praises of Tom Okinawa right now, like alongside Sari and Saiti, that she's on tap to be the MVP at least of the Red Star side of things.

06:38.277 --> 06:40.019
[SPEAKER_00]: She's been awesome.

06:40.299 --> 06:41.640
[SPEAKER_00]: There's confidence there.

06:41.901 --> 06:42.922
[SPEAKER_00]: There's intrigue there.

06:42.942 --> 06:44.083
[SPEAKER_00]: There's excitement there.

06:44.843 --> 06:49.505
[SPEAKER_00]: Everything you could ask for out of Tomokinaba, I think she's absolutely crushing it.

06:49.545 --> 06:52.106
[SPEAKER_00]: This is some of the best work I've ever seen her do.

06:52.666 --> 06:58.728
[SPEAKER_00]: And in this match against Nazi boy, she said, I am going to destroy your leg and you are going to deal with it.

06:59.068 --> 07:00.689
[SPEAKER_00]: And I loved that mindset.

07:00.749 --> 07:01.789
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that method.

07:01.969 --> 07:05.991
[SPEAKER_00]: She was a, she was someone that had a complete plan from start to finish.

07:06.031 --> 07:11.393
[SPEAKER_00]: She was someone that was like, I am going to destroy your leg and you are going to lose to me.

07:11.713 --> 07:12.473
[SPEAKER_00]: And you will like it.

07:15.881 --> 07:18.183
[SPEAKER_00]: spoiler that did not work out that way.

07:19.704 --> 07:29.813
[SPEAKER_00]: But she did the dragon screw, which really started the failure of Nazi poise leg, and she just kept welling on it with kicks after kicks after kicks.

07:30.193 --> 07:31.294
[SPEAKER_00]: Nazi poise kept fighting.

07:31.314 --> 07:32.335
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what she does, right?

07:32.395 --> 07:33.436
[SPEAKER_00]: She keeps fighting back.

07:33.716 --> 07:38.400
[SPEAKER_00]: She even went for the fairly gift, but crashed and burned, but she didn't let go from there.

07:38.720 --> 07:40.201
[SPEAKER_00]: To Mokinaba, just

07:41.563 --> 07:52.094
[SPEAKER_00]: kind of dominates these matches, you know, she's gone through kids, she's gone through resume, and now she's gone through poetry, she's gone through the big three, and she's had such a strong start.

07:52.575 --> 08:00.944
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, it'll be interesting to see where she goes from here, you know, she she drops the one and two here though, because Starlight Kid, Starlight Kid, Starlight Kid.

08:02.955 --> 08:05.917
[SPEAKER_00]: not supposed to get back on the offense, turn things around.

08:06.578 --> 08:17.605
[SPEAKER_00]: And when the match getting her signature cradle, pain after rolling through a few times to get the win, like I said, this started a great trend on the show of really good matches.

08:18.086 --> 08:20.868
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think this one was in fact really good.

08:21.248 --> 08:25.731
[SPEAKER_00]: And worth the watch, if you're watching to see what is indeed worth the watch.

08:25.771 --> 08:27.292
[SPEAKER_00]: So thank you for that.

08:27.693 --> 08:31.756
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, I think not to play is just continuously showcasing that she is the ace.

08:32.436 --> 08:35.857
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, we've talked about this many times on on the podcast and everything.

08:36.197 --> 08:37.557
[SPEAKER_00]: She is the ace of this process.

08:37.577 --> 08:42.238
[SPEAKER_00]: She's proving that to be the case and she's continuing to make that the case.

08:42.639 --> 08:51.921
[SPEAKER_00]: It really, really strong showing here from both sides as not to play is getting the win here and moving to to in one now.

08:53.365 --> 08:54.166
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not true.

08:54.767 --> 08:55.248
[SPEAKER_00]: That's true.

08:55.528 --> 08:56.249
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, two and one.

08:57.251 --> 08:58.352
[SPEAKER_00]: So she's now two and one.

08:59.514 --> 09:04.442
[SPEAKER_00]: Almost halfway through her tournament, which is pretty crazy thing about just another magic course tomorrow.

09:05.903 --> 09:08.045
[SPEAKER_00]: Let me tell you a Compton University of Zucenaba.

09:08.085 --> 09:11.089
[SPEAKER_00]: This was the best Sia Comptoni match to date.

09:12.290 --> 09:18.517
[SPEAKER_00]: Sia through her first two matches, you know, go through the basics, get the world champion opening the show.

09:18.557 --> 09:23.323
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't really need to go all out against Lady C and you know, but

09:23.923 --> 09:38.056
[SPEAKER_00]: She saw something in Azusa here in the hate versus hate match up in a match that I really really liked like I am definitely the high guy on this match, but there was just something about it.

09:38.236 --> 09:39.137
[SPEAKER_00]: I love the the

09:43.470 --> 09:51.354
[SPEAKER_00]: The confidence that Saia gave Azusa in this match, it felt like, you know, you start the match and it's pretty daunting task.

09:51.394 --> 09:56.356
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they're in the same faction, but this is Saia Contani, right?

09:56.376 --> 09:57.877
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the biggest star in Josie.

09:58.317 --> 10:08.362
[SPEAKER_00]: That is a lot for a seventeen-year-old wrestler and yet the seventeen-year-old steps up and steps into this match and really builds on this match.

10:08.502 --> 10:10.443
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, her confidence was there.

10:10.804 --> 10:11.384
[SPEAKER_00]: It just got him.

10:11.604 --> 10:12.765
[SPEAKER_00]: bigger and bigger and bigger.

10:13.085 --> 10:16.787
[SPEAKER_00]: Say I komitani was willing to give room for her to succeed.

10:16.847 --> 10:18.708
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's the biggest part of this match.

10:19.009 --> 10:25.673
[SPEAKER_00]: It's much like the Yuzuki utami match that I talked about earlier on the dream star version of this right.

10:25.733 --> 10:27.774
[SPEAKER_00]: The two Afro-dighty members shout out

10:28.454 --> 10:33.877
[SPEAKER_00]: giving room to the young talented rookies to succeed and get moves in.

10:34.017 --> 10:35.498
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's very important.

10:35.518 --> 10:39.560
[SPEAKER_00]: This was the most giving I thought Sia needed to be for a match like this.

10:39.921 --> 10:49.906
[SPEAKER_00]: As there's a novel hit the comma goye, which got a big pop out of me showing that fight hit a moon salt from the top rope, which was really cool.

10:50.086 --> 10:51.727
[SPEAKER_00]: It crushed Sia.

10:52.027 --> 10:54.829
[SPEAKER_00]: It was knees first, but she had a moon salt and that was really cool.

10:55.229 --> 11:04.241
[SPEAKER_00]: Say a count on he followed up later with a blue thunder bomb modified version before ultimately hitting the star crusher in the end to get the victory.

11:04.701 --> 11:09.627
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, probably one of my favorite matches of the tournament quite frankly.

11:12.327 --> 11:12.707
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

11:12.727 --> 11:15.610
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, I thought exceeded any expectation I had.

11:15.670 --> 11:19.473
[SPEAKER_00]: I saw you hadn't been doing, you know, top of the line.

11:19.513 --> 11:22.676
[SPEAKER_00]: She didn't really need to, but they moved her up the car a little.

11:22.996 --> 11:25.158
[SPEAKER_00]: She'd go in there with someone in her faction.

11:25.198 --> 11:28.861
[SPEAKER_00]: They have a really cool moment after where they embrace, which I thought was really nice.

11:29.621 --> 11:30.902
[SPEAKER_00]: But I like this a lot.

11:31.002 --> 11:33.244
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's well worked your time.

11:34.185 --> 11:38.288
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, sci-accompanies kind of now going on a trend or next two matches.

11:39.330 --> 11:42.037
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, let me see what are her next couple matches.

11:42.578 --> 11:45.605
[SPEAKER_00]: So Siya will face Walker.

11:46.569 --> 11:52.034
[SPEAKER_00]: on the night show, so I'll be nothing, but on the core can show, she faces Hanan, obviously a big deal.

11:52.894 --> 11:57.358
[SPEAKER_00]: Then she won't wrestle again till the sixteenth, the ten days later, that's a long time.

11:57.659 --> 12:00.481
[SPEAKER_00]: Then she'll face May Serhat, the yoke on the Buddha can obviously a big one.

12:00.741 --> 12:10.069
[SPEAKER_00]: Then she faces B, so she's gonna finish her tournament very strong with three big time opponents, and I think this was the good start for her to really start rocketing off.

12:10.369 --> 12:14.453
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's really exciting, because Sia, count of times the world champion, you want her to do great.

12:15.804 --> 12:23.529
[SPEAKER_00]: Next up, you had a huge memory versus lady C. And while I don't think this match was at the level of the previous two, it was quite good.

12:23.749 --> 12:29.373
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, the unities of Mori and lady C, they are two wrestlers who are not going to get a lot of wins.

12:29.413 --> 12:32.996
[SPEAKER_00]: They're two wrestlers who are on the bottom of every starting car for the most part.

12:33.296 --> 12:38.220
[SPEAKER_00]: But there are two wrestlers that put in a lot of time, put in a lot of effort, and you gotta respect them for it.

12:38.480 --> 12:41.182
[SPEAKER_00]: And you gotta respect them that they have the time here.

12:41.483 --> 12:45.226
[SPEAKER_00]: They get the time to wrestle their match.

12:45.646 --> 12:47.087
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's very important.

12:47.167 --> 12:50.410
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's super important because that's what you want to see.

12:50.430 --> 12:55.014
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I want to see is allow these two to just show what they got.

12:55.294 --> 12:57.836
[SPEAKER_00]: Show what they have, show what they're capable of.

12:58.196 --> 12:59.237
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they crush it.

12:59.457 --> 13:00.298
[SPEAKER_00]: I really, really do.

13:00.778 --> 13:07.100
[SPEAKER_00]: I think in terms of what their match is going to be, it's a very solid middle of the road match, but a fun one.

13:07.220 --> 13:08.881
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's all I'm looking for.

13:09.361 --> 13:14.082
[SPEAKER_00]: All I'm looking for is a fun, enjoyable match when you have the undercard talent in here.

13:14.462 --> 13:15.843
[SPEAKER_00]: Unis good, lady sees good.

13:15.883 --> 13:18.884
[SPEAKER_00]: They hit each other hard, hit each other's big boots, blarits.

13:19.144 --> 13:23.045
[SPEAKER_00]: And ultimately, lady see got the win when she hit a damn dominator.

13:23.685 --> 13:25.066
[SPEAKER_00]: That was insane.

13:25.106 --> 13:30.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Also kind of insane that this one after Tomok and Natsupoi and Kamatani and Azusa and then I think about it.

13:30.870 --> 13:35.412
[SPEAKER_00]: But either way, either way, they went for it and shout out to them.

13:35.673 --> 13:39.195
[SPEAKER_00]: I give them all the credit in the world for what they accomplished in this match.

13:39.235 --> 13:40.776
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they deserve a ton of praise.

13:41.156 --> 13:45.899
[SPEAKER_00]: And they were they were shoehorned in between two really tough matches to deliver something.

13:46.239 --> 13:48.221
[SPEAKER_00]: But I also want to give credit to the Sendai Pick crowd.

13:48.241 --> 13:50.183
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're all very hard on the Sendai Pick crowd.

13:50.544 --> 13:51.204
[SPEAKER_00]: They were into it.

13:51.384 --> 13:52.646
[SPEAKER_00]: They were into it for this match.

13:52.986 --> 13:54.608
[SPEAKER_00]: And this was really, really fun.

13:54.728 --> 13:57.350
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I quite enjoyed this one.

13:58.251 --> 14:00.714
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was a continuation of a good show.

14:00.734 --> 14:07.521
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's talk about my most anticipated match of the tournament that doesn't include so I read that is May Sarah versus Hanan.

14:07.641 --> 14:08.302
[SPEAKER_00]: I have been waiting.

14:08.862 --> 14:10.903
[SPEAKER_00]: two years for this match.

14:11.363 --> 14:16.385
[SPEAKER_00]: This match has been teased and teased and teased and teased.

14:16.425 --> 14:20.587
[SPEAKER_00]: We had it one time at Newblood, it was sick, but it was just the beginning of something.

14:20.867 --> 14:22.988
[SPEAKER_00]: We've seen them face off and tag team action.

14:23.008 --> 14:28.371
[SPEAKER_00]: We've seen them face off, win glory versus a crazy star back in the day, right?

14:28.411 --> 14:33.653
[SPEAKER_00]: They've had great exchanges because these two just don't like each other and it's awesome.

14:34.193 --> 14:41.120
[SPEAKER_00]: And they played that up in this match, a strong start, tons of dislike for one another.

14:42.161 --> 14:44.624
[SPEAKER_00]: They just brought it all around the Sendai pit.

14:45.024 --> 14:46.185
[SPEAKER_00]: This was really good.

14:46.225 --> 14:47.467
[SPEAKER_00]: This was hot on at her best.

14:47.487 --> 14:48.968
[SPEAKER_00]: This was made Sarah at her best.

14:49.369 --> 14:55.175
[SPEAKER_00]: It's everything I want to see from these two wrestlers playing in simple.

14:55.715 --> 15:03.260
[SPEAKER_00]: playing in symbols, everything I want to see from these two facing off from these two colliding and I thought they absolutely crushed it.

15:03.521 --> 15:04.041
[SPEAKER_00]: I really do.

15:04.101 --> 15:08.604
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they absolutely did what you wanted them to do and that's what matters the most.

15:10.598 --> 15:14.839
[SPEAKER_00]: Masonara diving dropkick from the apron to the outside on her.

15:14.899 --> 15:17.340
[SPEAKER_00]: They tease the double count out that was really well done.

15:17.740 --> 15:20.560
[SPEAKER_00]: Originally it was like we're on the floor that we're going to cool.

15:20.580 --> 15:21.861
[SPEAKER_00]: Go down the apron now.

15:21.901 --> 15:24.881
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like ripping each other off and eventually they both get in the ring.

15:24.901 --> 15:27.002
[SPEAKER_00]: I think double count of teases can be tough.

15:27.062 --> 15:29.062
[SPEAKER_00]: But then they start trading back and forth.

15:29.082 --> 15:33.283
[SPEAKER_00]: We go big time forearms, big time strikes going back and forth.

15:34.284 --> 15:39.805
[SPEAKER_00]: Then they're running, they're running, kind of turning up the speed a little bit, turning up that pace to that May Sarah pace.

15:40.545 --> 15:43.848
[SPEAKER_00]: How do I get there with a QD throw?

15:44.028 --> 15:47.931
[SPEAKER_00]: I like to call that the QD special, which is just talk.

15:48.031 --> 15:48.472
[SPEAKER_00]: You get it.

15:48.832 --> 15:49.192
[SPEAKER_00]: You get it.

15:49.412 --> 15:50.553
[SPEAKER_00]: I like to call it the QD throw.

15:51.734 --> 15:53.416
[SPEAKER_00]: Instead of the QD special, you get my point.

15:53.856 --> 15:58.420
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, that's followed up by Mason again to her feeding a picture perfect German suplex.

15:58.720 --> 15:59.481
[SPEAKER_00]: That was great.

16:00.742 --> 16:04.045
[SPEAKER_00]: May gets into her signature submission that I don't know the name of, but

16:04.525 --> 16:05.165
[SPEAKER_00]: I like it.

16:05.205 --> 16:11.388
[SPEAKER_00]: She has, she has that and that she morphs it into like a more serious submission that she won her first second.

16:11.408 --> 16:13.669
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, second match with in this tournament.

16:14.249 --> 16:18.090
[SPEAKER_00]: She goes back to that later after a hot on hitting a QD special.

16:18.130 --> 16:22.132
[SPEAKER_00]: So we got the true QD special in this match picture perfect.

16:22.592 --> 16:26.675
[SPEAKER_00]: but not enough back and forth, they go.

16:27.415 --> 16:31.478
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a backdrop driver, but not with the bridge.

16:31.838 --> 16:35.601
[SPEAKER_00]: So the match continues on, may Sarah be able to survive and move on.

16:36.181 --> 16:40.044
[SPEAKER_00]: How long started to hit the, what's the move called?

16:40.064 --> 16:41.265
[SPEAKER_00]: What's the one that's not it does?

16:41.305 --> 16:43.166
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the death fall thing.

16:43.946 --> 16:48.229
[SPEAKER_00]: Back in the, I don't know if he still does it, but he debuted a new finisher.

16:48.249 --> 16:50.411
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like a spinning DDT.

16:50.551 --> 16:51.572
[SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of like, um,

16:53.782 --> 16:58.763
[SPEAKER_00]: sister Abigail or the blade runner that Jay White does, but it's with the DDT aspect.

16:59.163 --> 17:00.344
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's what's the not it does.

17:00.664 --> 17:03.725
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever, that already too much of trying to figure it out.

17:04.025 --> 17:04.785
[SPEAKER_00]: But she hits that.

17:04.865 --> 17:06.185
[SPEAKER_00]: That's been her new addition.

17:06.225 --> 17:08.366
[SPEAKER_00]: I think in this tournament, which has been a nice addition.

17:09.246 --> 17:13.027
[SPEAKER_00]: May, may Sarah at the buzzer, the timer's going, counting down.

17:13.287 --> 17:18.588
[SPEAKER_00]: She goes for her flash pin that she's won so many matches with whether it be high speed or big, just any big match.

17:19.088 --> 17:22.509
[SPEAKER_00]: And as she finally gets it, the time runs.

17:23.389 --> 17:23.569
[SPEAKER_00]: out.

17:24.110 --> 17:27.732
[SPEAKER_00]: May Sarah Hanan, fifteen minute time limit draw.

17:28.372 --> 17:30.193
[SPEAKER_00]: It was not meant to be.

17:30.273 --> 17:32.694
[SPEAKER_00]: We still don't have a winner between these two.

17:33.135 --> 17:34.835
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the story that keeps getting told.

17:34.895 --> 17:36.276
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope we keep going back to it.

17:37.057 --> 17:38.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this match was great.

17:38.377 --> 17:39.658
[SPEAKER_00]: One of my favorites of the tournament.

17:40.378 --> 17:47.903
[SPEAKER_00]: Right there with Konami and sorry, but hell of a performance by both of these two.

17:47.963 --> 17:49.583
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought they absolutely crushed it.

17:50.304 --> 17:52.345
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely crushed it.

17:53.777 --> 17:56.938
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we had the semi made event, Nazgothora versus Rina.

17:57.498 --> 18:01.239
[SPEAKER_00]: I continued just seeing the praises of Rina because guess what, she's really good.

18:01.799 --> 18:05.099
[SPEAKER_00]: And Nazgothora has been on her A game in this tournament.

18:05.139 --> 18:12.501
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, Nazgothora is not going to give you the match of the year or anything like that, but she can give you a good performance, a good heal performance.

18:12.901 --> 18:14.521
[SPEAKER_00]: And this match was just that.

18:14.621 --> 18:15.962
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina was not waiting around.

18:16.022 --> 18:16.662
[SPEAKER_00]: She attacked.

18:17.482 --> 18:19.043
[SPEAKER_00]: not to go from the get go.

18:19.063 --> 18:24.025
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they do the outside stuff, the hate versus hate likes to do, which is why I sign versus usual when they surprise.

18:26.667 --> 18:32.710
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they go back and forth, they get back into the ring, and that's really where I think this match dials up to.

18:32.850 --> 18:34.391
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, this is pretty good.

18:34.951 --> 18:35.591
[SPEAKER_00]: This is pretty good.

18:35.731 --> 18:39.213
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't because the early goings, whatever, but this is pretty good.

18:39.233 --> 18:42.915
[SPEAKER_00]: And you can see, and I, I'm watching this, I'm like, I think we're going to Scott this.

18:42.995 --> 18:45.876
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Rhino's going through and I'll start this tournament feels right.

18:46.377 --> 18:47.917
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's exactly what she did.

18:48.278 --> 18:50.919
[SPEAKER_00]: Not to go to her goes for the mist on Rhino.

18:51.199 --> 18:51.900
[SPEAKER_00]: She's smart.

18:52.220 --> 18:52.980
[SPEAKER_00]: She's smart.

18:53.200 --> 18:54.641
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, you're in my faction.

18:54.821 --> 18:55.601
[SPEAKER_00]: I know you.

18:56.022 --> 18:58.563
[SPEAKER_00]: She dodges the mist, which was a great spot.

18:58.863 --> 19:01.264
[SPEAKER_00]: She hits the double knees for a near fall.

19:01.644 --> 19:02.665
[SPEAKER_00]: That is not enough.

19:03.005 --> 19:05.386
[SPEAKER_00]: And then this is kind of when Tor starts to dominate.

19:05.426 --> 19:06.607
[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, all right, enough enough.

19:06.847 --> 19:08.508
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm the former world of startup champions.

19:09.008 --> 19:11.369
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm the the leader of hate.

19:11.449 --> 19:12.189
[SPEAKER_00]: This is enough.

19:12.249 --> 19:14.370
[SPEAKER_00]: You are you are not going to be me.

19:14.750 --> 19:18.852
[SPEAKER_00]: She had to death Valley driver and she pull and that.

19:19.092 --> 19:19.632
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, sorry.

19:19.772 --> 19:20.933
[SPEAKER_00]: That's actually too early.

19:21.713 --> 19:23.734
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina kicks out at one.

19:24.014 --> 19:25.514
[SPEAKER_00]: That got the crowd going.

19:25.834 --> 19:26.895
[SPEAKER_00]: That got them hyped.

19:27.255 --> 19:32.137
[SPEAKER_00]: That led to not to go then going for a frog splash.

19:32.457 --> 19:34.578
[SPEAKER_00]: She hits the frog splash on Rina.

19:36.753 --> 19:39.180
[SPEAKER_00]: and she lifts up arena shoulders.

19:40.292 --> 19:41.473
[SPEAKER_00]: This is your faction mate.

19:41.493 --> 19:42.013
[SPEAKER_00]: What are you doing?

19:42.033 --> 19:42.874
[SPEAKER_00]: What are you trying to prove?

19:42.914 --> 19:55.341
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe she's just pissed off that Rina had put so much effort and put so much skill into the soon notes, but she pulls her up and ultimately follows that with a missed swan ton.

19:55.681 --> 19:56.762
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina rolls her up.

19:56.822 --> 19:57.883
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina takes advantage.

19:57.963 --> 20:08.369
[SPEAKER_00]: Does the bridge and gets the pin pinning natsuko Torah to go three and a to start her first ever five star grand.

20:08.789 --> 20:16.931
[SPEAKER_00]: pretty awesome awesome awesome moment for arena who is as confident as can be in this tournament right now.

20:17.711 --> 20:25.153
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely loved the big win over Torah and I think they get us got to keep going arena keep having arena succeed.

20:25.194 --> 20:26.534
[SPEAKER_00]: She's gonna lose sooner than later.

20:27.274 --> 20:28.915
[SPEAKER_00]: She's going to her hometown next.

20:30.175 --> 20:32.676
[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll see but really enjoyed this match.

20:32.696 --> 20:34.216
[SPEAKER_00]: I really enjoyed the show if you couldn't tell.

20:35.399 --> 20:41.383
[SPEAKER_00]: And then your main event, Starlight Kid versus Asami and may have seen it before, you've seen it many and many a time.

20:41.403 --> 20:45.225
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is not just good.

20:45.305 --> 20:46.446
[SPEAKER_00]: I enjoyed this match.

20:46.626 --> 20:49.868
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, I think I have reached the point where I am.

20:52.262 --> 20:54.924
[SPEAKER_00]: openly tired of the combo for a while.

20:55.505 --> 21:00.689
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we're in this weird stage now where there no longer high speed wrestlers, right?

21:01.089 --> 21:10.957
[SPEAKER_00]: So they go back to the high speed a little bit, which they did and then mix their skill sets, but they'll also do the usual thing.

21:10.977 --> 21:13.699
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's an interesting conversation point.

21:14.080 --> 21:15.601
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, S.L.K.

21:15.641 --> 21:16.702
[SPEAKER_00]: doing a lot of leg work.

21:18.793 --> 21:25.337
[SPEAKER_00]: Asmie working her arm, you know, selling the arm, this is kind of what the matches have been for Starlight Kid.

21:25.377 --> 21:29.760
[SPEAKER_00]: She works the leg, and that's the main goal for her against her opponent.

21:30.260 --> 21:33.142
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Asmie works the arm.

21:33.242 --> 21:35.583
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just kind of how these matches go.

21:35.643 --> 21:40.866
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't, I don't know, when I watch Asmie versus this, okay, I don't want to watch a limbs being work.

21:40.886 --> 21:44.048
[SPEAKER_00]: I just want them to just go out and have the fireworks show.

21:46.662 --> 21:52.604
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, there's also the leg did not come into play at all in the closing stretch.

21:52.624 --> 21:57.446
[SPEAKER_00]: They just ended up kind of letting that go, but they had a exciting closing stretch nonetheless.

21:58.306 --> 22:02.608
[SPEAKER_00]: Starlick had an apron DDT to ask me on to the apron, as I should say.

22:05.268 --> 22:08.691
[SPEAKER_00]: She had a stomp from across the ring at one point.

22:08.892 --> 22:10.874
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to zoom me sushi near falls.

22:10.914 --> 22:12.175
[SPEAKER_00]: You're often expecting.

22:13.356 --> 22:15.858
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to start like kid moonsault in their fall.

22:16.099 --> 22:18.401
[SPEAKER_00]: We got an eyesome destroyer near fall.

22:18.421 --> 22:19.502
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they're playing the hits.

22:19.542 --> 22:20.703
[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing the big moves.

22:21.184 --> 22:24.207
[SPEAKER_00]: And then in the closing minutes, eyesome gets the

22:24.687 --> 22:41.813
[SPEAKER_00]: numero uno on starlight kids she's surviving she's surviving she gets out of it and ultimately this was all to lead to a fifteen minute time limit draw which shouldn't shock anyone at all that this match went to a draw but hey I enjoyed it

22:42.473 --> 22:43.914
[SPEAKER_00]: I quite, I still enjoyed it.

22:44.375 --> 22:45.716
[SPEAKER_00]: Not my fair match on the show.

22:45.796 --> 22:52.161
[SPEAKER_00]: I have other matches that I prefer, but it will, it has made my list of go out of your way to watch if you want.

22:52.842 --> 23:02.570
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely under the good category and a strong main event to close this edition of the five star grand prix day four.

23:05.590 --> 23:07.435
[SPEAKER_00]: This is where we dial it up.

23:07.476 --> 23:09.582
[SPEAKER_00]: This is where we up of the stakes.

23:09.642 --> 23:12.149
[SPEAKER_00]: Sue Suzuki versus Mama Watanabe.

23:14.111 --> 23:18.713
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, there's always something so great about these two.

23:18.773 --> 23:21.753
[SPEAKER_00]: I've always been a fan of these two for years now.

23:22.134 --> 23:26.755
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Suzu didn't back to Ishera, but in Momosense, the moment I started watching Joshi.

23:27.775 --> 23:29.876
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just sat there as I stood face to face.

23:29.916 --> 23:31.737
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, this feels like a big match.

23:32.477 --> 23:37.118
[SPEAKER_00]: I wish I wish it was seen as a bigger match in startup than it is right now.

23:38.059 --> 23:39.959
[SPEAKER_00]: I say that as they're third to the top.

23:39.999 --> 23:41.640
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not even the same I mean.

23:41.680 --> 23:42.400
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, man.

23:44.037 --> 23:46.178
[SPEAKER_00]: Really, and they just, they're so good.

23:46.338 --> 23:47.018
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's the thing.

23:47.058 --> 23:51.679
[SPEAKER_00]: They're just so good against each other that I want them to get that chance to shine.

23:51.959 --> 23:55.400
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm also sending them like, man, both of these two should have been World Champion already.

23:55.420 --> 24:00.642
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, as we know, Susu was pretty much on the brink of that happening didn't happen.

24:00.662 --> 24:04.683
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I don't need to tell you that, Mama, that's the World Champion.

24:06.745 --> 24:07.966
[SPEAKER_00]: But they had such a good match.

24:08.166 --> 24:10.027
[SPEAKER_00]: They had such a good match.

24:10.107 --> 24:11.688
[SPEAKER_00]: I know shocker breaking news.

24:12.348 --> 24:17.311
[SPEAKER_00]: One of my favorites of the tournament, thus far hard hitting back and forth.

24:17.671 --> 24:23.474
[SPEAKER_00]: There was a moment where they're on the apron and Susu has Momo up for like a pile driver spot.

24:23.854 --> 24:28.417
[SPEAKER_00]: And she drops her shoulder first onto the edge of the apron.

24:29.277 --> 24:31.842
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, that was the second nastiest bump.

24:31.902 --> 24:34.848
[SPEAKER_00]: It was probably way safer than the site eat a bump, but it gets on me.

24:34.888 --> 24:37.052
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, but that was nasty.

24:37.092 --> 24:38.154
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like that was kind of like a

24:41.092 --> 24:42.112
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a move I really like.

24:42.152 --> 24:45.913
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like a shortened to power bomb where you just kind of have them sitting there and then drop.

24:46.993 --> 24:52.075
[SPEAKER_00]: It was I guess supposed to be more of a pile driver, but thankfully she only did our shoulders and on her head.

24:52.755 --> 24:55.756
[SPEAKER_00]: But awesome spot there and kind of play to that.

24:55.856 --> 24:57.476
[SPEAKER_00]: But Momo comes back around.

24:58.156 --> 25:01.177
[SPEAKER_00]: She had a B driver on the outside by the time they get in the rain.

25:01.197 --> 25:03.057
[SPEAKER_00]: They're just trade and big forearms.

25:03.457 --> 25:04.938
[SPEAKER_00]: Momo starts using the kicks.

25:05.778 --> 25:07.761
[SPEAKER_00]: Susan steals the bat for Momo.

25:07.781 --> 25:09.784
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a good spot to master with that.

25:10.165 --> 25:16.854
[SPEAKER_00]: Momo comes back and smashes her with the bat herself and hits a super uranagi from the top rope.

25:16.874 --> 25:18.436
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a great spot.

25:18.797 --> 25:21.601
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Susan's one of the best at the super.

25:22.882 --> 25:37.753
[SPEAKER_00]: spot the top rope big spot in weather and it's usually her taking the spot but I think she's always fantastic at it and she's always willing to take such a spot that it makes it for a really cool spot in her matches and ultimately she hit the tick

25:39.634 --> 25:40.974
[SPEAKER_00]: Momo had to kill sunrise.

25:41.014 --> 25:41.575
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not enough.

25:41.595 --> 25:45.396
[SPEAKER_00]: She gets the peach sunrise in on Suzu and gets the victory.

25:45.856 --> 25:48.977
[SPEAKER_00]: This match kind of was a big circle of, oh, you know, this could be a draw.

25:49.637 --> 25:51.018
[SPEAKER_00]: But no, that was not the case.

25:51.098 --> 25:57.200
[SPEAKER_00]: Ultimately, she beats Suzu Suzuki, puts her on a great, great run to the top.

25:57.260 --> 25:58.020
[SPEAKER_00]: She's now

25:59.217 --> 26:01.117
[SPEAKER_00]: Three and a, six points.

26:01.137 --> 26:04.258
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot better than last year when she started the tournament off Owen four.

26:04.778 --> 26:05.718
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's awesome.

26:05.918 --> 26:06.819
[SPEAKER_00]: We love to see that.

26:06.859 --> 26:08.319
[SPEAKER_00]: We love to see Mama succeed.

26:09.079 --> 26:10.419
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's been really good.

26:10.759 --> 26:11.139
[SPEAKER_00]: Shocker.

26:11.319 --> 26:11.580
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.

26:12.340 --> 26:13.760
[SPEAKER_00]: I really love blue stars be.

26:13.940 --> 26:14.640
[SPEAKER_00]: I like blue stars.

26:14.700 --> 26:21.342
[SPEAKER_00]: I love I think they both, you know, when you give us the top of the top matches from these two blocks, it really hits every time.

26:22.082 --> 26:23.342
[SPEAKER_00]: So that was a really good one.

26:23.362 --> 26:27.623
[SPEAKER_00]: Mama was next to match comes on Wednesday against

26:28.403 --> 26:31.986
[SPEAKER_00]: Ronni Yagami, while Susan next match is the same day against Hanako.

26:32.046 --> 26:35.448
[SPEAKER_00]: So two matches to look out for Susan, trying to get back on track.

26:35.909 --> 26:38.631
[SPEAKER_00]: Mama will try to keep the undefeated streak go away.

26:39.952 --> 26:40.952
[SPEAKER_00]: Then you had this in my main.

26:40.992 --> 26:44.075
[SPEAKER_00]: So Rihanna versus I'm sorry.

26:44.095 --> 26:45.175
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this was really good too.

26:45.215 --> 26:48.498
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it earned its semi main spot despite

26:49.977 --> 26:53.261
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, me wanting to do a moment there for bias reasons.

26:54.042 --> 26:56.524
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, right, man, I want to give her credit.

26:56.584 --> 26:58.827
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's been so good since she's come back.

26:59.888 --> 27:07.076
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, if you listen, and I say this every time, but if you listen to me for a long time, you know, me and I, we're not always on the same page.

27:08.918 --> 27:10.820
[SPEAKER_00]: She's a different wrestler since she's come back.

27:10.860 --> 27:13.502
[SPEAKER_00]: And I always say, like, you know, clean slate, let's see how she does.

27:14.062 --> 27:15.504
[SPEAKER_00]: She's figured it out.

27:16.084 --> 27:18.206
[SPEAKER_00]: And she understands who she is of the wrestler.

27:18.506 --> 27:20.428
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, she works for chops into these matches.

27:20.468 --> 27:22.049
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to shout out, Sarah, on out too.

27:22.489 --> 27:26.573
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to keep saying this every time I do one of these reviews.

27:27.113 --> 27:29.315
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the best tournament wrestlers in the world, folks.

27:29.495 --> 27:30.236
[SPEAKER_00]: She's awesome.

27:30.957 --> 27:31.837
[SPEAKER_00]: She's so awesome.

27:33.878 --> 27:41.020
[SPEAKER_00]: Every match you put her in every opportunity you give her, she's going to do her best to help either herself or her opponent and create.

27:41.720 --> 27:42.300
[SPEAKER_00]: Dramatic.

27:42.460 --> 27:43.240
[SPEAKER_00]: I love Sarah.

27:43.340 --> 27:44.320
[SPEAKER_00]: I really, really do.

27:44.340 --> 27:51.442
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, the more I watch her and the more I watch her in a tournament setting, especially I'm like, man, this is your thing.

27:51.582 --> 27:53.403
[SPEAKER_00]: And these two had good chemistry.

27:53.423 --> 27:58.464
[SPEAKER_00]: I think no one has taken more chops in this tournament than say, ory between the Eda match.

27:58.484 --> 28:01.064
[SPEAKER_00]: And now this match, she is just suffering.

28:01.344 --> 28:03.285
[SPEAKER_00]: But at one point, I'm sorry, slaps.

28:04.422 --> 28:07.686
[SPEAKER_00]: Sayori across the face, but she fights through that.

28:07.966 --> 28:13.352
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a great kick out on, sayori's pottering that really got me, I was like, oh shit, she's gonna win.

28:14.373 --> 28:17.877
[SPEAKER_00]: But not the case, not the case as we got the big kick out.

28:18.678 --> 28:20.420
[SPEAKER_00]: So that was really cool, really good spot.

28:22.300 --> 28:26.881
[SPEAKER_00]: We got a blue thunder bomb from Ami Sauray and then Sauray kicked out.

28:27.261 --> 28:30.222
[SPEAKER_00]: But that led to the thunder bolt like a thunder bolt.

28:30.282 --> 28:32.302
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's what's called to get the win.

28:32.402 --> 28:38.684
[SPEAKER_00]: And Ami Sauray keeps on going strong here in blue stars.

28:38.744 --> 28:41.484
[SPEAKER_00]: She is now a three and out with six points.

28:41.825 --> 28:44.885
[SPEAKER_00]: As we all expected, she's going to be strong throughout this tournament.

28:45.465 --> 28:51.947
[SPEAKER_00]: And a big win over Sayori, one of the top wrestlers in the block that's going to go a very, very long way for her.

28:52.467 --> 29:01.850
[SPEAKER_00]: So big wins for her tough sledding for Sayori, but a very solid semi made event here.

29:02.270 --> 29:04.050
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we get to my main event.

29:04.671 --> 29:08.092
[SPEAKER_00]: This is my main event on this day.

29:08.112 --> 29:14.213
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, go one on one with sorry in her hometown and he is hometown.

29:15.354 --> 29:18.255
[SPEAKER_00]: This match ruled and then this match rocked.

29:19.805 --> 29:23.848
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, you know, this ensues you in mama, I have kind of on the similar level.

29:24.849 --> 29:38.958
[SPEAKER_00]: Among the best matches in the tournament, but there's just something so fantastic about the the heat that sorry gets and the love that he and get right you mix that together in the hometown of he and then you make for such a really good match.

29:39.339 --> 29:40.600
[SPEAKER_00]: He'll sorry can do.

29:41.460 --> 29:57.585
[SPEAKER_00]: literally everything or when it reflects literally anything and she's gonna get booed and she's living up she's playing it up and she's doing so with confidence it's reason why she's so good at this heel roll and she just listen she's not changing a lot

29:58.105 --> 29:59.306
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, she's still clapping.

29:59.346 --> 30:01.587
[SPEAKER_00]: She's still playing for the crowd and they just hate it.

30:01.968 --> 30:04.369
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's why I love this version of sorry.

30:04.389 --> 30:07.971
[SPEAKER_00]: I know people want to hurt her embrace being a heal even more.

30:08.032 --> 30:09.573
[SPEAKER_00]: She does, it's little things.

30:09.593 --> 30:13.035
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I was putting her face in he and his face the way she pins them.

30:13.075 --> 30:18.018
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, just a little, a little disrespect to the wrestler goes a long way.

30:18.058 --> 30:20.660
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a reason she is so good at this.

30:21.100 --> 30:25.343
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a reason this match works so well because she was then willing to give he and so much.

30:25.743 --> 30:26.664
[SPEAKER_00]: He knew what's hitting.

30:27.284 --> 30:28.565
[SPEAKER_00]: So many big forums.

30:28.605 --> 30:31.928
[SPEAKER_00]: She was such a great underdog in this match fighting back.

30:31.968 --> 30:38.453
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, you know, fighting back, big forum, big forum and sorry, just hung with the crushing blow that sent her back.

30:38.834 --> 30:40.115
[SPEAKER_00]: But that didn't stop.

30:40.155 --> 30:40.655
[SPEAKER_00]: He listened.

30:40.715 --> 30:44.038
[SPEAKER_00]: He knows future starter when we've all said it's been an eye open, right?

30:44.098 --> 30:45.259
[SPEAKER_00]: She's stepped up.

30:45.339 --> 30:47.361
[SPEAKER_00]: She's stepped in and she's crushing it.

30:48.713 --> 30:54.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Why would she stop crushing it here in her biggest magic and sorry, then I know she absolutely continued to crush it.

30:55.555 --> 31:01.217
[SPEAKER_00]: In his best match of the tournament, a match that I think we all circle does hometown main event.

31:01.677 --> 31:02.137
[SPEAKER_00]: It works.

31:02.297 --> 31:02.958
[SPEAKER_00]: It's perfect.

31:03.438 --> 31:04.478
[SPEAKER_00]: And she did a great job.

31:04.498 --> 31:06.079
[SPEAKER_00]: She didn't STO at one point.

31:06.379 --> 31:09.800
[SPEAKER_00]: Then she locks our read a submission trying to beat her out for that.

31:10.300 --> 31:12.401
[SPEAKER_00]: But we also got some great heinous spots.

31:12.421 --> 31:15.301
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, she had a gate of clutch at one point for a great near fall.

31:15.662 --> 31:16.862
[SPEAKER_00]: She had the jack hammer.

31:17.142 --> 31:23.344
[SPEAKER_00]: And then she went for her big frog splash, but she got blocked, which was crushing.

31:23.744 --> 31:26.605
[SPEAKER_00]: She got another great near fall from there later on.

31:27.105 --> 31:29.465
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Sarisa's enough is enough.

31:29.505 --> 31:30.326
[SPEAKER_00]: She planted her.

31:30.606 --> 31:35.567
[SPEAKER_00]: She did tease going for the ear naggy one time, but did not have to hit that.

31:35.607 --> 31:36.567
[SPEAKER_00]: She had a double stomp.

31:37.128 --> 31:38.268
[SPEAKER_00]: Kick out some hope.

31:39.223 --> 31:44.167
[SPEAKER_00]: for heena, but she had one more double stop.

31:44.667 --> 31:54.616
[SPEAKER_00]: Got the win and completed what I thought was a fun blue star show overall with a great main event and he really just overall great final three matches.

31:55.476 --> 31:56.177
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought they all

31:57.729 --> 32:00.330
[SPEAKER_00]: lived up to the hope I had going into it.

32:01.090 --> 32:03.811
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you watch those three matches, they think you walked away with a good time.

32:03.931 --> 32:06.092
[SPEAKER_00]: So really, really good stuff.

32:06.152 --> 32:09.013
[SPEAKER_00]: They all made the sheet at the end of this slide.

32:09.093 --> 32:12.694
[SPEAKER_00]: So if you want to know what matches are worth watching from this day, we'll get there.

32:12.734 --> 32:15.135
[SPEAKER_00]: But those are the main three for sure.

32:16.095 --> 32:16.876
[SPEAKER_00]: We get to now.

32:16.936 --> 32:20.997
[SPEAKER_00]: This was tied for my favorite match between the two shows.

32:21.077 --> 32:27.240
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina, Tomoki, Naba, Tomoki, Naba has been an MVP candidate in this year's tournament.

32:27.720 --> 32:32.202
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's only second to sorry, which I know.

32:32.443 --> 32:32.803
[SPEAKER_00]: Shocker.

32:32.823 --> 32:33.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks, Chuck.

32:34.143 --> 32:37.585
[SPEAKER_00]: But she's had an incredible go even if the record doesn't reflect that.

32:39.066 --> 32:43.129
[SPEAKER_00]: And Rina, I mean, Rina's, all Rina's big matches are still saved.

32:43.589 --> 32:48.313
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina's final three matches, now that she's four and oh, are.

32:49.293 --> 32:57.800
[SPEAKER_00]: As a me on day six, not to point on day eight, start like kid on day ten.

32:59.348 --> 33:00.670
[SPEAKER_00]: And then she's done.

33:01.071 --> 33:03.455
[SPEAKER_00]: So all the three big matches that she has left.

33:03.615 --> 33:11.827
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's kind of an underdog to take MVP because she's had good matches with the lower part of the lower lower in quotes.

33:11.887 --> 33:14.471
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is a very strong block.

33:15.092 --> 33:33.781
[SPEAKER_00]: lower in quotes now she's going to face the big three I think she got some great matches obviously the star like kid one is a potential favorite of the tournament for me based on their match earlier this year um it'll be interesting to see what the story is does she go on three against the big three does she steal she's going to need to steal one win to get it I think

33:34.561 --> 33:35.442
[SPEAKER_00]: But she's sitting at eight.

33:35.622 --> 33:36.663
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see how that goes.

33:37.204 --> 33:39.025
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, it'll bring us to the final night.

33:39.065 --> 33:44.289
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see if she misses out because she goes on three in these last three matches or not, but she's in great spot.

33:44.870 --> 33:45.851
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, let's get to this match.

33:45.871 --> 33:47.052
[SPEAKER_00]: They were traded big boats.

33:47.812 --> 33:53.297
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, they just some work on the outside Reno's playing heel in her own town, which is always funny.

33:53.917 --> 33:55.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, because they were like, we want to cheer you.

33:55.638 --> 33:57.280
[SPEAKER_00]: We have to boo you, you know, that type thing.

33:59.665 --> 34:08.269
[SPEAKER_00]: they get back into the ring is that's really where this match picked up to mocha hit a dragon screw on arena which was brutal in all the right ways.

34:10.147 --> 34:12.548
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, kind of leaving arena on her back foot.

34:12.568 --> 34:13.769
[SPEAKER_00]: Arena comes back.

34:13.849 --> 34:15.310
[SPEAKER_00]: It's and everything is evil.

34:15.450 --> 34:16.871
[SPEAKER_00]: Devastating one of that.

34:17.591 --> 34:23.094
[SPEAKER_00]: She also hit two double knees from the top rope, but those did not get her the win.

34:23.495 --> 34:30.679
[SPEAKER_00]: At one point, we got to a struggle point where Tomokinaba got in the heel hook on arena and she had to survive.

34:31.419 --> 34:59.672
[SPEAKER_00]: that that continued to to mocha hitting a nasty buzz saw kick on arena you heard the thump on that one she did not miss there and at one point as they're running she hits the mission oku driver after getting out of the gore bomb she avoids it she gets hit with the mission oku driver but rena kicks out again we're building rena strong or keeping a strong they you know final stretch here trading trading moves trading uh...

35:00.292 --> 35:07.634
[SPEAKER_00]: reversals and then boom, rena gets her with the gory bomb once again to get her fourth straight wins.

35:07.674 --> 35:09.195
[SPEAKER_00]: Start off her first ever tournament.

35:09.695 --> 35:14.136
[SPEAKER_00]: For no, I let her said gory bomb and I felt like Mike brings him back.

35:14.156 --> 35:16.077
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if you watch basketball, you go.

35:16.157 --> 35:16.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm saying

35:17.258 --> 35:19.120
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but a really good match.

35:19.360 --> 35:19.921
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good match.

35:19.981 --> 35:21.202
[SPEAKER_00]: Reno's best match yet.

35:22.123 --> 35:27.069
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and like I said, she is kind of on a pace where she can be the MVP of this term.

35:27.089 --> 35:30.112
[SPEAKER_00]: I surely believe it with the matches she has left.

35:30.793 --> 35:31.914
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and here's my take.

35:31.974 --> 35:32.615
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's my take.

35:35.616 --> 35:36.776
[SPEAKER_00]: Have renal in the tournament.

35:37.157 --> 35:38.457
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, he's crazy.

35:38.697 --> 35:39.578
[SPEAKER_00]: Bulletin, we're here.

35:39.618 --> 35:43.539
[SPEAKER_00]: We're in the star making business when it comes to this five star grand prix.

35:44.100 --> 35:52.423
[SPEAKER_00]: And if we're not going to have the winner of this, Faceciacomotani Aquina, which we don't know one way or the other.

35:52.943 --> 35:59.346
[SPEAKER_00]: But if we're not going to, why not have renal win and challenge Starlight Kid at Queen Them instead?

35:59.666 --> 36:01.827
[SPEAKER_00]: She can debate over for a few months.

36:01.887 --> 36:03.848
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, that's how you set up the Queen Them Act.

36:04.688 --> 36:05.569
[SPEAKER_00]: I would love that.

36:06.110 --> 36:07.211
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not going to happen.

36:07.632 --> 36:12.197
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, but I would give her into the wind because I think she's put incredible work.

36:12.457 --> 36:17.102
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're all about making stars, losing these Cinderella final, winning this one.

36:17.142 --> 36:17.943
[SPEAKER_00]: That would be something.

36:18.684 --> 36:20.206
[SPEAKER_00]: She's having an incredibly year.

36:20.246 --> 36:21.567
[SPEAKER_00]: She continues to have a great year.

36:22.408 --> 36:23.569
[SPEAKER_00]: I want that to happen.

36:23.810 --> 36:23.970
[SPEAKER_00]: So

36:25.569 --> 36:26.009
[SPEAKER_00]: That's cool.

36:26.149 --> 36:35.753
[SPEAKER_00]: Unfortunately for Tom Oki, now she drops to one and three in the tournament, leaving herself on the outside, looking in for sure.

36:35.833 --> 36:38.715
[SPEAKER_00]: She's gonna have to win three in a row to even have a shot.

36:41.416 --> 36:55.042
[SPEAKER_00]: But Rina's next match, like I said, is against Azumi on Wednesday, Tom Oki will not wrestle again until, wow, she's off for a while, until the sixth heat when she faces not to go to her.

36:56.110 --> 36:57.550
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait a minute, that's true.

36:59.371 --> 37:00.151
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no, I looked it wrong.

37:00.491 --> 37:04.071
[SPEAKER_00]: Until the tent, when she faces Sayaka, Karara.

37:04.691 --> 37:10.452
[SPEAKER_00]: So that, I went against Karara, went against Torah and a win against Riyan.

37:10.833 --> 37:12.433
[SPEAKER_00]: That sets her up to go four and three.

37:12.633 --> 37:19.274
[SPEAKER_00]: At least get her into the conversation, probably have some heartbreak on the fight on night, but I think that's the path for her.

37:19.794 --> 37:22.335
[SPEAKER_00]: But hey, let's see how long Rina can stand defeated.

37:22.355 --> 37:24.435
[SPEAKER_00]: As a museum, like a big road block.

37:25.195 --> 37:26.516
[SPEAKER_00]: But if she wins that match, she's in.

37:26.696 --> 37:28.077
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, there's no doubting.

37:28.137 --> 37:29.278
[SPEAKER_00]: She is clinching a spot.

37:29.318 --> 37:30.679
[SPEAKER_00]: And she doesn't wrestle on the final night.

37:31.119 --> 37:31.640
[SPEAKER_00]: That's one thing.

37:31.700 --> 37:37.104
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina does not wrestle on day eleven, which is the final night of block action like this.

37:37.304 --> 37:40.206
[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll see how that goes when we get there.

37:40.686 --> 37:43.729
[SPEAKER_00]: But hey, a really fun match, really good match.

37:44.429 --> 37:47.852
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought he and Rina absolutely lived up to their spots in their hometown.

37:49.773 --> 37:52.795
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we had the main event of the red star show.

37:54.116 --> 37:54.757
[SPEAKER_00]: I listen.

37:56.733 --> 38:04.474
[SPEAKER_00]: I have had hope that a B would go back in time kind and have that one match.

38:04.554 --> 38:07.015
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, okay, there's something here.

38:08.035 --> 38:14.296
[SPEAKER_00]: This was one of the options because you knew this was going to make a vent and yeah.

38:16.116 --> 38:17.837
[SPEAKER_00]: Fundamentally this match is fine.

38:18.157 --> 38:20.957
[SPEAKER_00]: Those ones, scary spot on the brainbuster attempt.

38:20.997 --> 38:22.978
[SPEAKER_00]: But otherwise, fundamentally this match was fine.

38:24.198 --> 38:25.538
[SPEAKER_00]: It just boring.

38:27.589 --> 38:38.920
[SPEAKER_00]: like the crowd didn't even feel as into it and hot on this matches the hometown girl and they just They're just bland uninspiring not exciting

38:39.992 --> 38:44.314
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe that's just me, but I don't know, stop in a good tournament for me.

38:44.334 --> 38:45.374
[SPEAKER_00]: This was our best match.

38:45.434 --> 38:47.655
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think this was fundamentally fine.

38:47.755 --> 39:00.580
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, and hot on having the big baby face win, hitting the two backdrop drivers, you know, she caught the other top rope, dropped her, picked her back up, hit her with a nasty one to get the win.

39:01.240 --> 39:04.181
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, just underwhelmed.

39:05.592 --> 39:08.793
[SPEAKER_00]: You then have one of the best matches of the tournament.

39:08.833 --> 39:09.714
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that is right.

39:09.774 --> 39:13.355
[SPEAKER_00]: Sayaka, Karara versus Natsuko Torah.

39:13.595 --> 39:24.420
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, when I was watching this show, before this even started, I said to myself, you know, this card has so many matches I could walk away saying, that's my match of the tournament.

39:24.800 --> 39:26.700
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think this show has the potential.

39:27.101 --> 39:30.202
[SPEAKER_00]: And when I watch this match, I never even considered this one.

39:30.762 --> 39:32.063
[SPEAKER_00]: in that conversation.

39:32.123 --> 39:36.766
[SPEAKER_00]: That speaks to what Sayaka Crout is learning and growing through this tournament.

39:36.806 --> 39:39.668
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I have been talking about it throughout these videos.

39:39.708 --> 39:42.910
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's making necessary steps for her overall growth.

39:43.350 --> 39:45.532
[SPEAKER_00]: And this match was the ultimate showing that.

39:45.852 --> 39:53.237
[SPEAKER_00]: And on the other hand, you have Natsuko Toro who's really locked in and I think having really her best mini run in quite some time.

39:55.042 --> 39:56.563
[SPEAKER_00]: It was all a perfect combination.

39:56.883 --> 39:58.404
[SPEAKER_00]: It was all you what you wanted to see.

39:58.664 --> 40:02.466
[SPEAKER_00]: It was everything you could have asked for out of these two wrestlers.

40:02.806 --> 40:12.231
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's honestly why I really loved this match because it played to the underdog, David V. Glass story so perfectly.

40:13.591 --> 40:15.352
[SPEAKER_00]: The match started off.

40:16.273 --> 40:18.654
[SPEAKER_00]: Karara, Torah, going back and forth.

40:18.854 --> 40:20.375
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think back to

40:22.106 --> 40:24.569
[SPEAKER_00]: Karara's first Cinderella tournament.

40:24.649 --> 40:28.854
[SPEAKER_00]: She had gotten the upset over Tora and it was a DQ or something.

40:29.895 --> 40:31.117
[SPEAKER_00]: But there's history here.

40:32.178 --> 40:36.363
[SPEAKER_00]: And I like to think back to those moments because you know, you fast forward, right?

40:36.383 --> 40:40.628
[SPEAKER_00]: You come back and you see what does it look like in this occasion.

40:40.648 --> 40:41.709
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think what it comes to.

40:43.531 --> 40:46.112
[SPEAKER_00]: Karaara, she is just advanced so much.

40:46.732 --> 40:56.795
[SPEAKER_00]: And obviously like I've had my abs and down throughout the year, but this tournament is showing, you know, the potential that obviously start them season her.

40:57.235 --> 41:01.657
[SPEAKER_00]: And this match and her in cork and is always a good use of that.

41:02.617 --> 41:07.399
[SPEAKER_00]: At one point, you know, Tor hit the diving splash that she's one matches with in this tournament.

41:07.459 --> 41:11.360
[SPEAKER_00]: And pretty early mind you, but, but

41:12.498 --> 41:14.140
[SPEAKER_00]: Carrara kicked out.

41:14.200 --> 41:18.083
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a great moment, a great spot in the match that they built to.

41:19.885 --> 41:27.051
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's kind of where we got the great sleeper hold done by Carrara to try and even the odds and get back in the fight.

41:27.332 --> 41:28.393
[SPEAKER_00]: You know how I talked about it?

41:29.393 --> 41:36.063
[SPEAKER_00]: literally like two or three matches ago for Karara where you know that's sometimes can put a pause to great momentum in her matches.

41:36.704 --> 41:38.025
[SPEAKER_00]: This was the perfect usage.

41:38.085 --> 41:39.528
[SPEAKER_00]: This was exactly what you want to do.

41:39.608 --> 41:44.575
[SPEAKER_00]: You're slowing down to our tours you know fading and fading and fading and they had a great

41:45.576 --> 41:46.497
[SPEAKER_00]: great sell.

41:46.997 --> 41:49.660
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're toward just got her foot on the rope.

41:49.700 --> 41:50.621
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a great spot.

41:50.681 --> 41:51.802
[SPEAKER_00]: Crowd was super into it.

41:53.104 --> 42:02.473
[SPEAKER_00]: When Karara goes for her spear, she's met when they tore a spear that absolutely broke her in half an incredible incredible spot.

42:02.693 --> 42:04.055
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely lost her for that one.

42:04.815 --> 42:09.340
[SPEAKER_00]: She then hit a cannonball toward a cannonball and Karara, but there was another kick

42:09.800 --> 42:09.940
[SPEAKER_00]: out.

42:10.281 --> 42:15.165
[SPEAKER_00]: So she goes for the Swanton and misses and that's where Karara has her final leap of face.

42:15.205 --> 42:20.650
[SPEAKER_00]: She hits the violet, the violet knee that Tam used to hit.

42:20.670 --> 42:24.193
[SPEAKER_00]: She hits a spear, but Torah kicks out at one.

42:25.494 --> 42:33.701
[SPEAKER_00]: Get another near fall on a great tin, but ultimately that's all for not Karara gets hit with a DVD that's fairly driver.

42:35.084 --> 42:41.128
[SPEAKER_00]: but she kicks out one last time, tore a hits to Swanton and gets the win.

42:41.808 --> 42:44.250
[SPEAKER_00]: If so, Ayaka Karara won this match.

42:44.770 --> 42:47.071
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it might have been my match of the tournament.

42:48.933 --> 42:50.514
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just building to that.

42:50.674 --> 42:52.395
[SPEAKER_00]: It had all the belief in that.

42:52.435 --> 42:55.537
[SPEAKER_00]: And ultimately, it just came up short in that.

42:55.577 --> 42:59.519
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the belief in her winning was worth it.

42:59.559 --> 43:00.920
[SPEAKER_00]: Karara had a fascinating tournament.

43:00.940 --> 43:01.981
[SPEAKER_00]: She's already out.

43:02.041 --> 43:03.301
[SPEAKER_00]: She's officially been eliminated.

43:03.401 --> 43:04.082
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that

43:05.820 --> 43:12.924
[SPEAKER_00]: is studying in many ways because of one winning the center of turn or two, you know, challenging for the title.

43:13.164 --> 43:22.628
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, obviously above her is not supposed to really kidaz me arena and Torah, but I don't know, being eliminated so early just feels odd.

43:23.409 --> 43:24.229
[SPEAKER_00]: But that is the case.

43:24.529 --> 43:28.892
[SPEAKER_00]: She was officially eliminated with the loss, but what a match to have.

43:29.652 --> 43:33.414
[SPEAKER_00]: And I look forward to seeing Karar continue to grow moving forward.

43:36.317 --> 43:39.580
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we had Suzuki versus Hanako.

43:40.200 --> 43:42.322
[SPEAKER_00]: This I thought was the worst match on the show.

43:44.624 --> 43:50.949
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the build to the double count out, which wasn't really a double count out was the problem.

43:51.029 --> 43:55.572
[SPEAKER_00]: It just never felt like the match I think they wanted it to be.

43:55.973 --> 44:00.556
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know why these two need to draw.

44:00.656 --> 44:04.600
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're at a point so far in this tournament where

44:05.804 --> 44:09.708
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, to do these tie for second, but she has to face sorry this weekend.

44:10.449 --> 44:12.451
[SPEAKER_00]: That's probably going to be a loss.

44:12.491 --> 44:13.472
[SPEAKER_00]: It should be a loss.

44:15.254 --> 44:17.616
[SPEAKER_00]: And at that point, does she even get in?

44:17.816 --> 44:19.879
[SPEAKER_00]: Does she even get into the top three?

44:20.359 --> 44:21.080
[SPEAKER_00]: It becomes close.

44:21.100 --> 44:21.901
[SPEAKER_00]: It becomes dicey.

44:21.921 --> 44:23.682
[SPEAKER_00]: And this is going to be an important part of that.

44:26.185 --> 44:28.547
[SPEAKER_00]: There was just too much outside work.

44:28.588 --> 44:28.708
[SPEAKER_00]: Like,

44:29.848 --> 44:39.406
[SPEAKER_00]: You know one thing that was brought up on commentary a few times like you know a lot of these matches are going to the outside going to the outside getting thrown through chairs and we talked about that last time and this was

44:40.455 --> 44:41.175
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of that.

44:41.396 --> 45:06.210
[SPEAKER_00]: Like they had a little bit in the ring back and forth trading, whatever, but then they kind of just traveled into the, you know, the front of Corkin and then, you know, Hanako got taken out and Susan had to run back and she got there too soon and tripped and they tried to sell it as she wasn't in, though she was clearly rolled into the ring and they said, draw.

45:09.271 --> 45:12.932
[SPEAKER_00]: It was not a good double count out the drama lacked there.

45:14.052 --> 45:16.493
[SPEAKER_00]: It took so much away from the match that you can't.

45:18.033 --> 45:27.055
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no reason to put much more focus onto the rest of the match in my opinion, because that was just so like, okay, sure.

45:28.456 --> 45:30.456
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, that's that, honestly.

45:31.796 --> 45:32.537
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's set the better.

45:32.817 --> 45:33.977
[SPEAKER_00]: It was the weakest match on the show.

45:35.627 --> 45:37.408
[SPEAKER_00]: They had Heenah verse, Konami.

45:37.849 --> 45:46.615
[SPEAKER_00]: Konami's luck since opening night when she made Sauri go to sleep is not going well because she lost again.

45:47.136 --> 45:55.722
[SPEAKER_00]: This time to the future of startup champion, Heenah who got her first win of the tournament in a very solid match.

45:56.123 --> 46:01.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Nothing to write home about necessarily, but they solid find the mental match between two good wrestlers.

46:01.947 --> 46:02.527
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Heenah

46:03.388 --> 46:05.290
[SPEAKER_00]: He is waiting for the breakout match.

46:05.330 --> 46:11.157
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, the match was sorry, probably was that, you know, fantastic fight from her and her hometown and all that big main event.

46:11.797 --> 46:15.481
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think she's looking for that breakout match of like, wow, that's like match to the tournament level.

46:17.392 --> 46:21.353
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think she's just still a step below that, but that's okay.

46:22.054 --> 46:23.234
[SPEAKER_00]: Because she got a win here.

46:23.954 --> 46:26.635
[SPEAKER_00]: Konami hit the Hoshiki kick from the top at one point.

46:26.675 --> 46:27.376
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a good one.

46:28.296 --> 46:32.998
[SPEAKER_00]: And ultimately, like I said, Hina got the clutch to get the victory.

46:33.058 --> 46:37.419
[SPEAKER_00]: So kind of steal the victory from Konami, not a big time win.

46:37.759 --> 46:39.240
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really weird watching Hina.

46:40.632 --> 46:44.053
[SPEAKER_00]: in this tournament for me, and I don't know if this is just a me thing.

46:44.953 --> 46:48.533
[SPEAKER_00]: But she is someone who obviously dominates in her future, starting a championship match.

46:48.573 --> 46:51.814
[SPEAKER_00]: It's right, she dominates in all these different types of matches.

46:52.934 --> 46:59.635
[SPEAKER_00]: And now she's, you know, in this tournament, she's not facing future, startup competitors type.

46:59.935 --> 47:03.356
[SPEAKER_00]: So for her, she is the underdog every time.

47:03.376 --> 47:09.717
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it gives in it takes, but I think she's so good in that future, startup role that she's found that

47:10.257 --> 47:14.841
[SPEAKER_00]: It's almost upsetting to see her get dominated and destroyed every match and have to do the underdog fight.

47:15.362 --> 47:15.662
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

47:15.702 --> 47:23.589
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's found her niche as a wrestler who fights on top rather than from underneath.

47:24.129 --> 47:26.952
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's kind of where I'm at with the heena term.

47:26.992 --> 47:29.934
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still good, still solid, but that's kind of where I'm at.

47:29.954 --> 47:33.077
[SPEAKER_00]: And Konami's fine, you know, Konami, Konami's the owner job.

47:33.377 --> 47:34.938
[SPEAKER_00]: She still has one of my favorite match of the term.

47:34.978 --> 47:36.400
[SPEAKER_00]: And so she'll tell us out there.

47:37.444 --> 47:38.484
[SPEAKER_00]: Let me get to the final three.

47:38.664 --> 47:44.127
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the final three was the strongest three match span in the entire tournament so far.

47:44.147 --> 47:44.827
[SPEAKER_00]: It starts with Saturday.

47:44.907 --> 47:46.368
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't versus Bozilla.

47:46.728 --> 47:50.569
[SPEAKER_00]: The match ended in a fifteen minute draw, but the way we got there was so exciting.

47:51.149 --> 47:55.271
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, yes, we returned outside of the ring once again, but this was fun.

47:55.491 --> 47:57.112
[SPEAKER_00]: I like when we go and, you know,

47:57.592 --> 48:02.416
[SPEAKER_00]: go to the sign, you know, that's a signature, start a move, signature, Joshy move at this point, really.

48:02.817 --> 48:07.921
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, smashing the people's heads off the side, off the side and the stands.

48:08.361 --> 48:09.182
[SPEAKER_00]: That's always great.

48:09.202 --> 48:11.704
[SPEAKER_00]: So they already brought it hell of a fight in the smash.

48:12.065 --> 48:14.807
[SPEAKER_00]: She was not worried about facing Bozilla.

48:14.847 --> 48:16.829
[SPEAKER_00]: She was welcoming the fight to Bozilla.

48:17.329 --> 48:22.834
[SPEAKER_00]: And when I love about tournaments, say, or she kind of just has this line set of like, I'm going to do whatever I want.

48:23.294 --> 48:29.359
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to go out there and I'm going to put on a show and you are going to do it with me no matter who or opponent it.

48:29.419 --> 48:31.761
[SPEAKER_00]: She's having another great tournament man.

48:32.521 --> 48:34.883
[SPEAKER_00]: I look forward to her matches every single night.

48:34.903 --> 48:35.744
[SPEAKER_00]: She's one of my favorites.

48:36.344 --> 48:44.410
[SPEAKER_00]: On the other hand, I thought this was Bozilla's second best match since joining startup, you know, just a level below the odds of me won, but really, really good.

48:45.531 --> 48:46.952
[SPEAKER_00]: These two had good chemistry.

48:47.032 --> 48:48.833
[SPEAKER_00]: I walked away from being like, let's do that again.

48:49.654 --> 48:51.316
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's kind of like the big win.

48:51.356 --> 48:55.919
[SPEAKER_00]: If you can do that and come back to a match and say, let's do that against great.

48:55.939 --> 49:01.764
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, say, we found different ways to broke, break down Bozillion, dragon screw.

49:02.084 --> 49:04.567
[SPEAKER_00]: They even traded four arms at one point, which I thought was cool.

49:05.447 --> 49:11.575
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, we got a great sleeper hold spot from say, or he trying to tire Bozilla get hurt down.

49:12.196 --> 49:14.699
[SPEAKER_00]: Ultimately in the final, you know, five minutes stretcher.

49:14.740 --> 49:17.964
[SPEAKER_00]: So we get all of these different trading and we're like, who's going to win?

49:17.984 --> 49:18.585
[SPEAKER_00]: Who's going to win?

49:18.845 --> 49:21.809
[SPEAKER_00]: Say where he gets a pottering on Bozilla, but she

49:22.289 --> 49:29.974
[SPEAKER_00]: And almost in a way, over-rotated on Bozilla, allowing Bozilla to kick out and just barely survive.

49:30.354 --> 49:31.275
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a great spot.

49:31.615 --> 49:35.357
[SPEAKER_00]: Then they trade Germans, so Sayori hits this big German super-lex, right?

49:35.377 --> 49:40.320
[SPEAKER_00]: She had built it throughout the match, and then Bozilla gets up and launches.

49:41.021 --> 49:42.141
[SPEAKER_00]: Launches Sayori.

49:42.321 --> 49:43.262
[SPEAKER_00]: That was terrifying.

49:44.769 --> 49:47.250
[SPEAKER_00]: I literally wrote, good God.

49:47.550 --> 49:56.155
[SPEAKER_00]: In the closing seconds, Bozilla hits the running power bomb, running set out power bomb, one, two, time runs out.

49:57.115 --> 49:59.537
[SPEAKER_00]: So you saw it.

50:00.057 --> 50:01.418
[SPEAKER_00]: The visual pain was there.

50:01.618 --> 50:03.779
[SPEAKER_00]: Bozilla had the victory.

50:04.539 --> 50:07.721
[SPEAKER_00]: But time runs out and they both get a point of peace.

50:08.481 --> 50:09.662
[SPEAKER_00]: Fantastically done.

50:10.782 --> 50:11.903
[SPEAKER_00]: Fantastically done.

50:13.180 --> 50:15.682
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't give enough compliments for what they accomplished.

50:17.183 --> 50:18.024
[SPEAKER_00]: Fantasticly done.

50:19.345 --> 50:30.374
[SPEAKER_00]: But from there, we go to my match of the tournament thus far.

50:30.434 --> 50:32.175
[SPEAKER_00]: Excuse me.

50:33.236 --> 50:36.238
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was awesome.

50:37.179 --> 50:38.520
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'll just keep saying it.

50:39.701 --> 50:40.461
[SPEAKER_00]: Read as the best.

50:41.438 --> 51:01.981
[SPEAKER_00]: reasons the best listen if you listen to the five star just show I said a month ago that once you know my you left start arena was my new favorite starter my boy what was I right with that so bias is in full but this match was great arena now has great matches without me match the year still for me with star like kid.

51:03.491 --> 51:18.349
[SPEAKER_00]: just fantastic stuff here, just the continuation of her growth as a wrestler and her ability to go from point A to point B to point C. And mold together a match that's so exciting, so inviting and makes

51:19.130 --> 51:20.090
[SPEAKER_00]: all the sense in the world.

51:20.151 --> 51:29.335
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, this is, this is the rest of her still very new, but at the same time, a veteran in her own right, but just finally getting the push and being improving.

51:29.535 --> 51:31.616
[SPEAKER_00]: She's beyond ready for that push.

51:31.936 --> 51:33.556
[SPEAKER_00]: And I have to give credit to Ozumi too.

51:33.616 --> 51:34.217
[SPEAKER_00]: That's only right.

51:34.237 --> 51:36.918
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Ozumi is the vet of this match.

51:37.158 --> 51:39.699
[SPEAKER_00]: and Reno was able to go to the Asmi pace.

51:39.739 --> 51:58.047
[SPEAKER_00]: I think what makes this match better to me than the Starlight Kid match, for example, which I had been Asmi's best match, I thought to this point, was the back and forth, was the fight between the two, and was just the ability to do these new different things that were so inviting and exciting.

51:58.447 --> 51:59.888
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's why I loved it so much.

52:02.033 --> 52:06.996
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, as me, the match opened with Rina, hitting a big time drop kick.

52:07.076 --> 52:12.579
[SPEAKER_00]: I literally wrote, again, Rina is the best in this just a great pace back and forth.

52:12.599 --> 52:20.683
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, as we had gotten the upper hand, but it was taken right back with a judo toss, judo throw by Rina, which was perfect.

52:20.903 --> 52:26.266
[SPEAKER_00]: She got the hydrangea on multiple times in this match, including in the closing stretch, which was great.

52:26.546 --> 52:28.447
[SPEAKER_00]: She hit the double double as I call it.

52:29.854 --> 52:34.036
[SPEAKER_00]: the double double is the middle rope knees and then the top rope knees.

52:34.076 --> 52:35.236
[SPEAKER_00]: That is now the double double.

52:35.837 --> 52:37.337
[SPEAKER_00]: She got the double double near fall.

52:38.078 --> 52:41.019
[SPEAKER_00]: They have this great spot, this great spot.

52:41.039 --> 52:44.680
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, so much of this tournament for arena has been hitting that gory bomb, right?

52:44.720 --> 52:46.821
[SPEAKER_00]: That has been the end in all her matches.

52:46.841 --> 52:47.922
[SPEAKER_00]: That's how she went for now.

52:48.282 --> 52:54.545
[SPEAKER_00]: So we tease the gory bomb, but I think it's a great sunset flip power bomb type to get a near fall.

52:55.085 --> 52:55.925
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I think it's

52:57.866 --> 53:08.149
[SPEAKER_00]: ringing poor rena's arms brutal brutal arm bars going for that numero uno, but rena's able to get out of it and just barely survive.

53:09.249 --> 53:11.770
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think it's back on the on the high ground.

53:11.990 --> 53:15.731
[SPEAKER_00]: She hits the double foot stomp for a near fall.

53:15.811 --> 53:20.012
[SPEAKER_00]: That's when rena comes back with a high range of for a great back and forth.

53:20.612 --> 53:22.232
[SPEAKER_00]: And maybe my favorite

53:25.889 --> 53:29.556
[SPEAKER_00]: back and forth was yeah she she went for

53:31.633 --> 53:35.375
[SPEAKER_00]: This, she kicked out of the Azumi Sushi, which is always a great spot.

53:35.655 --> 53:37.216
[SPEAKER_00]: And at this point, I just kind of got lost.

53:37.276 --> 53:38.137
[SPEAKER_00]: I stopped writing notes.

53:38.177 --> 53:39.077
[SPEAKER_00]: I just kind of scribble.

53:39.778 --> 53:43.800
[SPEAKER_00]: And it just got so real, the back of four, trying to figure out how to win, how to win.

53:44.280 --> 53:52.325
[SPEAKER_00]: She goes for the glory bomb again, but that's reverse into, and Azumi destroyer, and then hit with the Azumi Sushi for the win.

53:52.925 --> 53:55.667
[SPEAKER_00]: Leading to Reena's first loss in the tournament.

53:55.687 --> 53:57.608
[SPEAKER_00]: She now drops to four, one with eight points.

53:57.928 --> 54:00.730
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Azumi climbs to seven points.

54:01.230 --> 54:10.014
[SPEAKER_00]: in the turning one back of first place in Red Stars B. Like I said, the match was fantastic.

54:10.834 --> 54:11.895
[SPEAKER_00]: Awesome, awesome stuff.

54:12.095 --> 54:13.995
[SPEAKER_00]: It's my personal match of the tournament.

54:14.356 --> 54:19.518
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be under the great calm at the end of this, but just awesome, man.

54:21.593 --> 54:23.934
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't say enough good things about Rina.

54:24.054 --> 54:25.634
[SPEAKER_00]: She is the future of stardom.

54:26.615 --> 54:27.995
[SPEAKER_00]: She is the president of stardom.

54:28.035 --> 54:30.116
[SPEAKER_00]: She could be one or stardom champion tomorrow.

54:30.136 --> 54:31.056
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think she should.

54:31.676 --> 54:34.858
[SPEAKER_00]: I said it last time, like why don't you just have her win the whole thing and challenge for the wonder.

54:36.558 --> 54:40.079
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's got to be the one to take the belt off of stardom like kid.

54:40.099 --> 54:41.880
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even think that's a pretty debate anymore.

54:43.040 --> 54:44.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Just personally, just personally.

54:45.921 --> 54:49.262
[SPEAKER_00]: But just a fantastic showing from these two, it was awesome me on her best.

54:49.543 --> 54:50.343
[SPEAKER_00]: Rina and her best.

54:51.408 --> 54:53.449
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think the best match in the tournament so far.

54:54.349 --> 54:56.670
[SPEAKER_00]: And that brought us to a great main event.

54:57.311 --> 55:01.172
[SPEAKER_00]: And one of the big time matches really of the entire tournament, right?

55:01.192 --> 55:06.875
[SPEAKER_00]: When you saw the blocks come out, I think hot on versus Sia Kamatani was one of the ones you circled.

55:06.915 --> 55:09.836
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, there is a story developing here.

55:10.176 --> 55:14.038
[SPEAKER_00]: When Sia Kamatani retired, Tim Nikon on her first interview, she said,

55:15.424 --> 55:18.792
[SPEAKER_00]: And I quote, Hanan is the baby face.

55:18.812 --> 55:22.540
[SPEAKER_00]: Hanan is the next baby face to fall to watch and

55:24.510 --> 55:34.497
[SPEAKER_00]: That is, in many ways, I think what's starting to is telling you, starting is to making you focus on is that Hanan is next up.

55:35.158 --> 55:40.541
[SPEAKER_00]: Hanan's going to make it to the finals of this year's current, maybe loose to Ami Saray, but she is next up.

55:41.582 --> 55:45.765
[SPEAKER_00]: And this match was again, to try and prove is she next up.

55:45.905 --> 55:51.529
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if the match may have me walk away saying, yeah, I think Hanan should be your next world of starting champion.

55:51.549 --> 55:53.391
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think it accomplished that necessarily.

55:54.051 --> 55:55.911
[SPEAKER_00]: But she can be in that main event match.

55:58.572 --> 56:01.113
[SPEAKER_00]: Smash was great, great, great.

56:01.293 --> 56:05.154
[SPEAKER_00]: As you kind of expect, sci-fi, Comotini's first true big match in the tournament, right?

56:05.194 --> 56:06.774
[SPEAKER_00]: I really like hers is a knob of match.

56:08.314 --> 56:13.216
[SPEAKER_00]: But her first big match in the tournament, right in the main event, and these two brought it.

56:13.256 --> 56:22.398
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, at the very beginning, Hanan took a similar apron bump that sci-Eda had taken against Omisore, earlier in the tournament.

56:24.660 --> 56:27.421
[SPEAKER_00]: of the chain that she used on Tam Nikano.

56:27.441 --> 56:33.264
[SPEAKER_00]: So obviously trying to maybe give some insight of, hey, this is kind of maybe our next rivalry.

56:33.304 --> 56:35.085
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe that's what we're hoping for here.

56:35.445 --> 56:38.047
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was interesting, but she was just destroying Hanan.

56:38.087 --> 56:39.147
[SPEAKER_00]: Hanan had no answers.

56:39.747 --> 56:42.089
[SPEAKER_00]: But finally, we got back into it.

56:42.813 --> 56:43.994
[SPEAKER_00]: Honen starts working back.

56:44.114 --> 56:46.437
[SPEAKER_00]: She suplexed by the ring.

56:46.837 --> 56:48.639
[SPEAKER_00]: That's kind of where she got her momentum.

56:48.959 --> 56:52.022
[SPEAKER_00]: At one point, she hits the cutie special for a good near fall.

56:52.142 --> 56:53.564
[SPEAKER_00]: Picture perfect cutie special.

56:53.904 --> 56:55.325
[SPEAKER_00]: But we bounce back into the ring.

56:55.345 --> 56:56.306
[SPEAKER_00]: We get to the top row.

56:56.627 --> 57:01.712
[SPEAKER_00]: A top row, Frankensteiner from Sayah Kamatani to again get back.

57:02.412 --> 57:04.833
[SPEAKER_00]: in the lead at one point she had raw.

57:05.133 --> 57:07.874
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't have anything else to write.

57:08.374 --> 57:13.356
[SPEAKER_00]: But Hanun kept fighting and kept fighting and kept fighting was resilient and fight and fight and fight.

57:13.416 --> 57:14.416
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was fantastic.

57:14.436 --> 57:17.237
[SPEAKER_00]: If this is your match of the tournament, I would not blame you.

57:17.337 --> 57:18.457
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was fantastic.

57:20.378 --> 57:21.778
[SPEAKER_00]: Back drop driver.

57:21.838 --> 57:24.579
[SPEAKER_00]: She drops by a calm toning on the top of her neck.

57:24.999 --> 57:26.000
[SPEAKER_00]: Brutal Brutal Brutal Brutal.

57:26.020 --> 57:26.720
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the finish.

57:26.740 --> 57:30.161
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the one that's got the job done for Hanun so many times.

57:31.889 --> 57:33.390
[SPEAKER_00]: Poseyokamatani kicks out.

57:34.431 --> 57:39.956
[SPEAKER_00]: And in the end, Sayyokamatani is able to hit the star crusher after looking to already have had Hanan won.

57:40.316 --> 57:40.516
[SPEAKER_00]: Right?

57:40.816 --> 57:42.358
[SPEAKER_00]: Hanan was planted on the ground.

57:42.638 --> 57:43.479
[SPEAKER_00]: She lifts her up.

57:43.819 --> 57:48.643
[SPEAKER_00]: She picks up for the star crusher, Pinser, one, two, three to prove that.

57:50.144 --> 57:56.730
[SPEAKER_00]: Sayyokamatani is the dominant Almighty force in this tournament, but also

57:57.872 --> 57:59.152
[SPEAKER_00]: on's just not ready yet.

57:59.352 --> 58:02.853
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's the interesting aspect of this match.

58:03.273 --> 58:04.733
[SPEAKER_00]: But an awesome awesome match.

58:05.414 --> 58:07.614
[SPEAKER_00]: A fantastic show from top to bottom.

58:07.934 --> 58:08.914
[SPEAKER_00]: One of my favorites.

58:09.614 --> 58:10.655
[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, it is my favorite.

58:10.695 --> 58:11.855
[SPEAKER_00]: It is my favorite show so far.

58:11.915 --> 58:13.215
[SPEAKER_00]: Just the last three matches alone.

58:13.255 --> 58:13.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure of that.

58:14.456 --> 58:15.816
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving on though, too.

58:15.856 --> 58:19.677
[SPEAKER_00]: What I thought were a great final two matches.

58:20.177 --> 58:22.577
[SPEAKER_00]: Starting with my sock drivers, his chain Yoda.

58:23.057 --> 58:25.978
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was awesome.

58:27.013 --> 58:29.014
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was so great.

58:29.074 --> 58:34.417
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was better than the United National title match they had a few months ago, a cork and all.

58:34.837 --> 58:40.440
[SPEAKER_00]: This was one of the best performances I've ever seen out of either of these wrestlers.

58:40.480 --> 58:42.081
[SPEAKER_00]: Like truly a great match.

58:42.121 --> 58:47.123
[SPEAKER_00]: I think on paper, you look at the landscape of what this first night was bringing.

58:48.004 --> 58:55.388
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Mariah versus Miku, my Uvers' savory, Yuzuki versus Tommy, right?

58:56.777 --> 58:59.738
[SPEAKER_00]: a great little top of the lineup.

59:00.258 --> 59:07.059
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you had my soccer versus Chen Yota, which based on their history, based on their story, could be great.

59:07.799 --> 59:08.800
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was.

59:09.060 --> 59:11.080
[SPEAKER_00]: Chen Yota was phenomenal.

59:11.420 --> 59:13.020
[SPEAKER_00]: My soccer I was phenomenal.

59:13.421 --> 59:14.761
[SPEAKER_00]: So much back and forth.

59:14.881 --> 59:16.281
[SPEAKER_00]: So much nastiness.

59:16.701 --> 59:18.502
[SPEAKER_00]: There were times throughout this match.

59:18.642 --> 59:19.762
[SPEAKER_00]: I was just in awe.

59:19.822 --> 59:21.962
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I just stopped writing notes at one point.

59:21.982 --> 59:24.043
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, I can't follow all this.

59:24.083 --> 59:24.783
[SPEAKER_00]: This is too much.

59:25.243 --> 59:26.144
[SPEAKER_00]: in all the best ways.

59:26.184 --> 59:27.465
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it just kept going.

59:27.885 --> 59:31.628
[SPEAKER_00]: Chan Yoda was locked in and she looked like a woman possessed at times.

59:31.668 --> 59:33.069
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I am winning this match.

59:33.169 --> 59:34.430
[SPEAKER_00]: I am getting this victory.

59:34.790 --> 59:36.071
[SPEAKER_00]: I am getting this upset.

59:36.771 --> 59:37.171
[SPEAKER_00]: She hit.

59:37.712 --> 59:42.916
[SPEAKER_00]: She blocked my sock right elbow drop, which I thought looks pretty nasty.

59:42.976 --> 59:44.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, oh, I hope mine's okay.

59:45.197 --> 59:47.038
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a fun start.

59:47.319 --> 59:51.542
[SPEAKER_00]: She also hit it like like a shell shock top rope.

59:52.462 --> 59:53.983
[SPEAKER_00]: a slam type thing.

59:54.003 --> 59:54.403
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

59:54.423 --> 01:00:04.246
[SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of like a wrestling slam almost, but not exactly from the top rope onto my soccer right for a great near fall, but my soccer right battles back as she often does.

01:00:04.266 --> 01:00:10.068
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, this is the United National Champion more defenses than any title reign in Margo history.

01:00:10.128 --> 01:00:11.288
[SPEAKER_00]: She's gonna fight back.

01:00:11.609 --> 01:00:14.449
[SPEAKER_00]: And ultimately, she gets the STF in on Chan Yoda.

01:00:14.790 --> 01:00:15.370
[SPEAKER_00]: And this was

01:00:16.310 --> 01:00:23.392
[SPEAKER_00]: I think probably the best struggle of opening night and when I say struggle, I mean, it's all the story of like I need to get there.

01:00:23.572 --> 01:00:24.933
[SPEAKER_00]: I will not lose this match.

01:00:25.273 --> 01:00:28.114
[SPEAKER_00]: Chandler's clawing and clawing and clawing, right?

01:00:28.414 --> 01:00:32.055
[SPEAKER_00]: And getting there and trying to get to that bottom rope and she does.

01:00:32.555 --> 01:00:47.611
[SPEAKER_00]: she just barely does but she does and I think that was such a great way to tell that story a great way to show that Chen Yota who if I remember correctly lost to the STF in her title match can get out of this can fight through.

01:00:49.093 --> 01:01:13.546
[SPEAKER_00]: She had some nasty layers just turning in my sock right showing some incredible passion along the way and she closes out the match with a jackhammer followed by a modified blue thunder bomb to get the win and beat my sock right defeat the united national champion in the middle of the ring to kick off opening night.

01:01:13.946 --> 01:01:21.632
[SPEAKER_00]: Chan Yoda gets her first two points, her first win, and she instantly filled in the role that Nauri did last year.

01:01:21.973 --> 01:01:27.818
[SPEAKER_00]: So many of us were talking about Nauri throughout last year's tournament and how people would have loved to see her again.

01:01:28.198 --> 01:01:32.842
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Chan Yoda stepped into that spot as the outsider and absolutely crushed it.

01:01:33.382 --> 01:01:36.844
[SPEAKER_00]: an awesome awesome showing from Chan Yota.

01:01:37.385 --> 01:01:39.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Awesome showing from my soccer eye.

01:01:39.426 --> 01:01:42.948
[SPEAKER_00]: I one of my favorite tournament matches so far this year.

01:01:43.068 --> 01:01:44.749
[SPEAKER_00]: Truly awesome match.

01:01:45.630 --> 01:01:49.472
[SPEAKER_00]: That will be part of the most the matches to watch.

01:01:49.932 --> 01:01:54.555
[SPEAKER_00]: So definitely if you haven't seen it, go out of your way to see it just an absolute home run from these two.

01:01:56.382 --> 01:02:02.807
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you had the main event, the main event that I was quite looking forward to, you got a Tommy High Shista versus Victoria Yuzuki.

01:02:03.128 --> 01:02:07.091
[SPEAKER_00]: And so many of the times I talk about Victoria Yuzuki, it's confidence, right?

01:02:07.511 --> 01:02:09.433
[SPEAKER_00]: Confidence, confidence, confidence.

01:02:10.574 --> 01:02:12.755
[SPEAKER_00]: This was her night.

01:02:12.936 --> 01:02:14.197
[SPEAKER_00]: If you want to talk about someone that

01:02:16.432 --> 01:02:19.014
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, maybe deserves an MVP case.

01:02:20.155 --> 01:02:26.720
[SPEAKER_00]: After opening night, I don't know if you can deny Victoria Yuzuki that case.

01:02:26.880 --> 01:02:31.984
[SPEAKER_00]: A strong showing in both of her matches, but none other stronger than this one.

01:02:32.084 --> 01:02:33.605
[SPEAKER_00]: She was on it.

01:02:33.745 --> 01:02:34.986
[SPEAKER_00]: This was her match.

01:02:35.366 --> 01:02:38.329
[SPEAKER_00]: Utami said, I'm just gonna be your base and you go crazy.

01:02:38.349 --> 01:02:39.610
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what this match was.

01:02:39.950 --> 01:02:42.652
[SPEAKER_00]: Utami's your marigold world champion mind you.

01:02:43.012 --> 01:02:53.779
[SPEAKER_00]: So the creativity of this match and the authenticity of this being a Victoria Yuzuki match, really spoke through, really was on full display.

01:02:53.999 --> 01:02:58.622
[SPEAKER_00]: Otami is just absolutely wearing it from Yuzuki.

01:02:58.662 --> 01:03:06.107
[SPEAKER_00]: She is going and going, you know, when Yuzuki gets going, she doesn't slow down, you're going to pretty much need to take her out for her to slow down.

01:03:06.167 --> 01:03:09.249
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was an incredible aspect of this match.

01:03:10.966 --> 01:03:18.013
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you do keep just absolute spit fire in there one time, you know, she how she does the, uh, sorry, bottom rope drop kick.

01:03:18.333 --> 01:03:23.879
[SPEAKER_00]: She hit one absolutely crushed, utami and said, nah, nah, we're going to do another one.

01:03:23.919 --> 01:03:33.448
[SPEAKER_00]: She went back to back two of them in a row, absolutely crushing utami, leaving utami looking for answers, but utami would fight back hitting that deadlift German super.

01:03:33.749 --> 01:03:34.870
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that was it.

01:03:35.150 --> 01:03:35.851
[SPEAKER_00]: I really did.

01:03:36.252 --> 01:03:37.073
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought that was it.

01:03:37.133 --> 01:03:46.224
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Yuzuki had missed on her victory shooting at one point, but you know, Tommy got on the offensive hits the deadlift German last year.

01:03:46.244 --> 01:03:49.589
[SPEAKER_00]: This might very well beat Yuzuki, but not this year.

01:03:49.649 --> 01:03:50.710
[SPEAKER_00]: She's a different wrestler.

01:03:50.730 --> 01:03:51.992
[SPEAKER_00]: She's an improved wrestler.

01:03:52.392 --> 01:03:53.934
[SPEAKER_00]: She is more advanced wrestler.

01:03:54.234 --> 01:03:56.256
[SPEAKER_00]: She kicks out and keeps fighting through.

01:03:56.656 --> 01:04:03.143
[SPEAKER_00]: And maybe one of maybe my favorite spot on the night besides the second main event of this day was this.

01:04:03.403 --> 01:04:05.605
[SPEAKER_00]: Victoria Zuki went for one rolling arrow.

01:04:07.267 --> 01:04:09.588
[SPEAKER_00]: Barely, barely kicks out for utami.

01:04:09.868 --> 01:04:11.649
[SPEAKER_00]: She goes for a second rolling arrow.

01:04:12.009 --> 01:04:14.330
[SPEAKER_00]: Utami kicks out again, just barely.

01:04:14.650 --> 01:04:16.211
[SPEAKER_00]: And Yuzuki's like, no, no, no, no.

01:04:16.491 --> 01:04:17.112
[SPEAKER_00]: She kicks her.

01:04:17.352 --> 01:04:22.174
[SPEAKER_00]: She gets into a third rolling arrow and she picks up the win.

01:04:22.694 --> 01:04:35.060
[SPEAKER_00]: A stunner to end the first show on day one of the Dream Star Grand Prix as Victoria Yuzuki pins the Maori gold world champion to stand

01:04:35.420 --> 01:04:46.524
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said to myself, this is already a win for this tournament because you are already pushing the young talent over the established.

01:04:46.944 --> 01:04:51.126
[SPEAKER_00]: Little did we know it was only the beginning on this night.

01:04:51.246 --> 01:04:56.928
[SPEAKER_00]: If I was to pick between the two shows, by the way, which one I like more, I thought that they want are.

01:04:57.728 --> 01:05:02.573
[SPEAKER_00]: show one was a little bit better, but show two and it was an absolute bang.

01:05:02.894 --> 01:05:04.195
[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll get to that here in a second.

01:05:04.215 --> 01:05:14.205
[SPEAKER_00]: But Victoria Yuzuki gets her first win, leaving you Tommy in shock hitting the three rolling arrows and standing tall to end show number one.

01:05:18.541 --> 01:05:30.985
[SPEAKER_00]: Then you go to the semi-main event, this match and what was ultimately the main event of this show where my most anticipated matches of the opening day for the Marigold Dream Star Grand Prix.

01:05:31.025 --> 01:05:35.826
[SPEAKER_00]: I think what these two did was just continue their rivalry.

01:05:36.086 --> 01:05:39.207
[SPEAKER_00]: That is what the purpose of this match was.

01:05:39.807 --> 01:05:42.872
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of, okay, we've both grown so much in a year, right?

01:05:42.892 --> 01:05:46.177
[SPEAKER_00]: We haven't faced each other since some of the destinies since we had all those draws.

01:05:46.958 --> 01:05:48.881
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, of course, making one a pinned.

01:05:54.014 --> 01:05:58.877
[SPEAKER_00]: advanced to the United National title tournament final.

01:05:58.957 --> 01:06:09.063
[SPEAKER_00]: And when that title become the first champion, right Mariah's been trying and scratching, cloning to try and get back to the top or get to the top of Margo.

01:06:09.103 --> 01:06:11.305
[SPEAKER_00]: She hasn't had that moment just yet.

01:06:12.265 --> 01:06:18.329
[SPEAKER_00]: And her finally beating Michiwano would have given her the confidence to move forward, right?

01:06:18.349 --> 01:06:19.750
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's a big part of this.

01:06:19.830 --> 01:06:21.711
[SPEAKER_00]: She's never beaten Michiwano.

01:06:22.251 --> 01:06:23.491
[SPEAKER_00]: in one-on-one action.

01:06:23.611 --> 01:06:25.252
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just not in her book.

01:06:25.572 --> 01:06:33.474
[SPEAKER_00]: But what we also know is that these two have never been able to decide their differences in fifteen minutes, right?

01:06:33.514 --> 01:06:36.434
[SPEAKER_00]: That was so much of their tournament run.

01:06:36.474 --> 01:06:38.315
[SPEAKER_00]: They continuously went to draws.

01:06:38.335 --> 01:06:42.816
[SPEAKER_00]: They continuously went to that fifteen minute marker, and there was no solution had.

01:06:42.836 --> 01:06:44.036
[SPEAKER_00]: There was no winner had.

01:06:44.416 --> 01:06:50.918
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that was kind of the tail of this match, the tail of the story of this match is neither wanted to slip up.

01:06:51.478 --> 01:06:52.319
[SPEAKER_00]: against one another.

01:06:52.379 --> 01:06:54.742
[SPEAKER_00]: Both of them obviously had matches early in the night.

01:06:55.042 --> 01:06:59.587
[SPEAKER_00]: Mariah was smart enough to work the legs of Miku Aano who had suffered early in the night.

01:06:59.887 --> 01:07:04.532
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of submission based a lot of working the leg a lot of struggle here in this match.

01:07:04.553 --> 01:07:06.214
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of struggle for both of them.

01:07:06.595 --> 01:07:07.636
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of them were, you know,

01:07:07.896 --> 01:07:11.677
[SPEAKER_00]: in submissions for a long time and trying to get there and trying to get there.

01:07:12.278 --> 01:07:18.600
[SPEAKER_00]: They did do their trading of laryates and shoulder blocks as you'd hope, but it went right back to a struggle.

01:07:18.940 --> 01:07:20.721
[SPEAKER_00]: These two could not finish it off.

01:07:20.841 --> 01:07:26.423
[SPEAKER_00]: Neither could find their finisher or mirror Maori shock attempts, styles clash attempts just nothing.

01:07:26.903 --> 01:07:30.084
[SPEAKER_00]: Nothing was coming together for either of these two.

01:07:30.464 --> 01:07:35.545
[SPEAKER_00]: Miku had the Miku lock, you know, Miku put in every submission she could.

01:07:35.885 --> 01:07:38.385
[SPEAKER_00]: Same goes for Mariah, but these two were not giving up.

01:07:38.425 --> 01:07:42.086
[SPEAKER_00]: There's something that drives these two where I can't lose to you.

01:07:42.166 --> 01:07:43.726
[SPEAKER_00]: I refuse to lose to you.

01:07:44.066 --> 01:07:46.766
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want it to happen, especially within the fifteen minutes.

01:07:47.227 --> 01:07:49.707
[SPEAKER_00]: As Mariah and the closing stretch goes for the seat belt.

01:07:49.807 --> 01:07:55.748
[SPEAKER_00]: Once again, the move that won her first match against Gochika, the time runs out

01:07:55.748 --> 01:07:55.868
[SPEAKER_00]: out.

01:07:56.329 --> 01:07:58.350
[SPEAKER_00]: Fifteen minutes gone.

01:07:58.370 --> 01:08:00.292
[SPEAKER_00]: The struggle was over.

01:08:00.793 --> 01:08:02.514
[SPEAKER_00]: These two go to the draw.

01:08:02.574 --> 01:08:12.543
[SPEAKER_00]: Mikuano ends the night at O-one and one with just one point and we'll have to stick around for quite some time before she has a chance to run it back.

01:08:12.563 --> 01:08:14.425
[SPEAKER_00]: This was Mikuano's final match.

01:08:14.925 --> 01:08:19.568
[SPEAKER_00]: until the cork and haul show on the thirty against Chenyota.

01:08:19.608 --> 01:08:25.351
[SPEAKER_00]: So she is going to have to go on a run to get back into this one that's all set and done.

01:08:25.411 --> 01:08:34.216
[SPEAKER_00]: Mariah on the other hand and tonight at one one with three points a strong start to her sitting second in the star league.

01:08:34.816 --> 01:08:36.657
[SPEAKER_00]: She has strong start last year, right?

01:08:36.677 --> 01:08:38.098
[SPEAKER_00]: She even had the win over the time.

01:08:38.138 --> 01:08:39.779
[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll see how this breaks down.

01:08:40.240 --> 01:08:41.780
[SPEAKER_00]: But I thought this was a good match.

01:08:41.880 --> 01:08:44.542
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I know they have better probably their weak

01:08:44.862 --> 01:08:54.890
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if you're into the groundwork and the legwork a little bit more than me, probably like a little bit more, but still a good match.

01:08:54.950 --> 01:08:56.932
[SPEAKER_00]: Like these two can't have a bad match.

01:08:56.952 --> 01:09:04.938
[SPEAKER_00]: And to me, this was just saving themselves for something greater down the line whenever that may be because that's what these two bring to the table.

01:09:07.048 --> 01:09:09.911
[SPEAKER_00]: But finally, you had your main event of the evening.

01:09:10.291 --> 01:09:19.061
[SPEAKER_00]: May you even tawny versus say, re amyoka for the first time ever out of all the matches in this tournament.

01:09:20.433 --> 01:09:22.135
[SPEAKER_00]: This was one of my most hyped ones.

01:09:22.896 --> 01:09:33.128
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, if you've been listening to my podcast, if you've been listening to the channel, I have sang the praises of Sri Amyoka since the moment she debuted at first stream earlier this year.

01:09:33.168 --> 01:09:41.298
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a special young wrestler who's just figuring things out as she goes, but doing so in such an impressive way.

01:09:41.778 --> 01:09:49.459
[SPEAKER_00]: Every match she has, every performance she has, she's either improving, adding something new, or a little bit of both.

01:09:49.579 --> 01:09:52.360
[SPEAKER_00]: And now she's stepping in the ring with the icon.

01:09:52.400 --> 01:09:56.681
[SPEAKER_00]: The woman I believe is the greatest wrestler of all time, my U.S.

01:09:56.901 --> 01:09:58.221
[SPEAKER_00]: attorney, my U.S.

01:09:58.241 --> 01:10:02.061
[SPEAKER_00]: attorney, who is undoubtedly the unstoppable force.

01:10:02.121 --> 01:10:09.323
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of the talk going into opening night from Rossi was my use undefeated.

01:10:09.583 --> 01:10:10.783
[SPEAKER_00]: My use never lost.

01:10:11.895 --> 01:10:12.555
[SPEAKER_00]: in Margo.

01:10:12.615 --> 01:10:15.256
[SPEAKER_00]: She is a undefeated singles wrestler, right?

01:10:15.336 --> 01:10:21.259
[SPEAKER_00]: She has the win over tonight, the win over Yizuki, the win over Mesa, the win over Arena.

01:10:21.319 --> 01:10:23.520
[SPEAKER_00]: She's just dominated, even in her non.

01:10:25.395 --> 01:10:26.075
[SPEAKER_00]: single matches.

01:10:26.115 --> 01:10:27.956
[SPEAKER_00]: She's when she wins and she wins.

01:10:28.056 --> 01:10:31.478
[SPEAKER_00]: So could Siri, I'm a yoga be the first one.

01:10:31.978 --> 01:10:34.979
[SPEAKER_00]: And for a lot of this match and this match is great.

01:10:35.159 --> 01:10:42.002
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved this match because it was my you back into a role I haven't seen in a long time.

01:10:42.382 --> 01:10:47.764
[SPEAKER_00]: My you was not there to baby Siri, I'm a yoga through this match.

01:10:47.804 --> 01:10:54.647
[SPEAKER_00]: If you've ever watched my use of matches against, you know, students of her or such, she doesn't ease up on them.

01:10:55.307 --> 01:10:57.730
[SPEAKER_00]: If anything, she brings it to them a bit more.

01:10:58.151 --> 01:11:00.694
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of this match was, can you sink or swim?

01:11:00.934 --> 01:11:05.320
[SPEAKER_00]: Say, Riyamioka, are you truly the super rookie I am told you are?

01:11:06.560 --> 01:11:09.361
[SPEAKER_00]: Just I didn't even write notes for this match.

01:11:10.041 --> 01:11:11.381
[SPEAKER_00]: I totally blanked.

01:11:11.561 --> 01:11:15.622
[SPEAKER_00]: I totally just locked into this match and this match itself.

01:11:15.722 --> 01:11:16.642
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all I could do.

01:11:16.762 --> 01:11:21.323
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all I wanted to do because I was so excited for what this was.

01:11:21.363 --> 01:11:24.224
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, they have the opening grappling and all things like that.

01:11:24.584 --> 01:11:29.165
[SPEAKER_00]: But then it just gets to another level because my use hitting Siri, I'm yoga with

01:11:29.485 --> 01:11:55.968
[SPEAKER_00]: everything she has in the arsenal super kicks kick to the head at one point that was so terrifying and every time Siri thought she had momentum my you shut it down she did hit the big drop kick at one point to get back into the match which was a great spot and I thought that was a great spot because she was originally loading herself up bounced off the rope and started selling the abdomen you know because

01:11:57.049 --> 01:12:01.111
[SPEAKER_00]: Maya you took her out, you know, this was a devastation from Maya.

01:12:01.191 --> 01:12:12.837
[SPEAKER_00]: She was in many ways overly confident, which is something the icon can be once in a while, especially in a tournament setting, and especially because she's been undefeated.

01:12:14.197 --> 01:12:15.018
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's facing.

01:12:16.358 --> 01:12:18.039
[SPEAKER_00]: Sure at the super rookie, but it's a rookie.

01:12:18.439 --> 01:12:19.920
[SPEAKER_00]: This is first time everyone in the main event.

01:12:20.220 --> 01:12:21.041
[SPEAKER_00]: I've been here.

01:12:21.081 --> 01:12:37.409
[SPEAKER_00]: That was kind of the feeling and every time Sari Yamamoto could fought back it was a little more more belief and a little bit more belief and when they get into that closing stretch of the back and forth my you was shutting her down every time super kick super kick two times it looked like Sari was getting back

01:12:37.409 --> 01:12:42.533
[SPEAKER_00]: back on the offensive and making this a real contest, but superkicks took her out.

01:12:42.593 --> 01:12:47.336
[SPEAKER_00]: But Sariyami, okay, I think the biggest thing through her first, what are we now?

01:12:47.436 --> 01:12:48.617
[SPEAKER_00]: Eight months of her career.

01:12:48.977 --> 01:12:53.641
[SPEAKER_00]: She has told you, I am going to fight and I'm going to fight until I got nothing left.

01:12:54.661 --> 01:12:56.363
[SPEAKER_00]: And that is what she did.

01:12:56.863 --> 01:12:57.463
[SPEAKER_00]: She fought.

01:12:57.784 --> 01:12:59.205
[SPEAKER_00]: She fought at one point.

01:12:59.245 --> 01:13:05.670
[SPEAKER_00]: She gets the Oki clutch for a great near fall right the Oki clutch has become the pain for seriyamioka.

01:13:05.970 --> 01:13:11.174
[SPEAKER_00]: That is the way she wins these big matches and that plays to the tail later in the match.

01:13:11.635 --> 01:13:16.298
[SPEAKER_00]: My U is going and going and going and she is met with three

01:13:17.896 --> 01:13:21.197
[SPEAKER_00]: rocking German Suplexes by Seriyamioka.

01:13:21.577 --> 01:13:24.258
[SPEAKER_00]: Very similar to earlier night with the gut renches on Chiyaki.

01:13:24.298 --> 01:13:25.479
[SPEAKER_00]: She said enough is enough.

01:13:25.719 --> 01:13:28.940
[SPEAKER_00]: I and it plays to her raw power.

01:13:29.280 --> 01:13:33.101
[SPEAKER_00]: It plays to her raw potential of I can do this.

01:13:33.321 --> 01:13:34.702
[SPEAKER_00]: I can be anyone.

01:13:35.242 --> 01:13:39.726
[SPEAKER_00]: She plants Mayu with three crushing suplexes after she had been crushed.

01:13:40.046 --> 01:13:43.729
[SPEAKER_00]: They're out this match on suplexes, kicks to the head, all these different things.

01:13:44.149 --> 01:13:51.315
[SPEAKER_00]: She crushed her, gets her in the Okiy clutch and pins the icon in the middle of the ring.

01:13:51.736 --> 01:13:53.817
[SPEAKER_00]: This match was great.

01:13:54.758 --> 01:13:58.441
[SPEAKER_00]: It was great, between this and Chaniota and my Sochari.

01:13:58.881 --> 01:14:04.065
[SPEAKER_00]: These two matches alone made this such a successful night for this tournament.

01:14:04.405 --> 01:14:06.107
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved this match.

01:14:06.727 --> 01:14:10.690
[SPEAKER_00]: I may love it a little bit more than most people, but I don't really care.

01:14:10.770 --> 01:14:18.776
[SPEAKER_00]: Like this match is exactly what I want out of the icon, the MVP, the savior and the super rookie.

01:14:19.116 --> 01:14:21.098
[SPEAKER_00]: So Riyamioka showed I'm ready.

01:14:22.818 --> 01:14:34.901
[SPEAKER_00]: And within two matches on this night, within two main events, Margo said, they are our future, they are our future cornerstones, but we are also the present of Margo.

01:14:35.181 --> 01:14:37.982
[SPEAKER_00]: We are the present of this company.

01:14:38.002 --> 01:14:42.423
[SPEAKER_00]: Where are what this company is going to be building on for years to come?

01:14:42.483 --> 01:14:50.545
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you're Tommy and Mayu are the now and they've been the now and they continue to be the absolute top tier of this company, but we can take them out.

01:14:50.565 --> 01:14:51.505
[SPEAKER_00]: We can beat them.

01:14:51.945 --> 01:14:56.226
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think another story point here is, this was a real pin.

01:14:56.246 --> 01:14:59.687
[SPEAKER_00]: This was in a shock pin type flash pin thing.

01:15:00.107 --> 01:15:06.169
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, I mean, okay, I had my you down and when the match was over, she held her down a little bit longer before my you kicked out.

01:15:06.629 --> 01:15:08.810
[SPEAKER_00]: It was in pure shock.

01:15:08.870 --> 01:15:09.690
[SPEAKER_00]: It was wait a minute.

01:15:09.790 --> 01:15:10.030
[SPEAKER_00]: What?

01:15:10.430 --> 01:15:12.871
[SPEAKER_00]: I lost and I lost through the super rookie.

01:15:13.531 --> 01:15:17.352
[SPEAKER_00]: This was a vote of confidence that didn't need to happen necessarily.

01:15:17.372 --> 01:15:18.933
[SPEAKER_00]: They gave everyone knows how confident.

01:15:19.393 --> 01:15:21.355
[SPEAKER_00]: Margold is in Sariyamaoka.

01:15:21.715 --> 01:15:22.816
[SPEAKER_00]: She is the one to me.

01:15:22.856 --> 01:15:25.359
[SPEAKER_00]: She's the best rookie in all of her fashion wrestling.

01:15:25.399 --> 01:15:29.743
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I know it's a hot take because people love Sankha and Sankha's awesome too.

01:15:29.763 --> 01:15:34.587
[SPEAKER_00]: There's not there's a great debate there, but Sariyamaoka

01:15:35.628 --> 01:15:39.551
[SPEAKER_00]: She instantly said on night one in her very first tournament match.

01:15:39.771 --> 01:15:40.452
[SPEAKER_00]: I am here.

01:15:40.472 --> 01:15:46.116
[SPEAKER_00]: I am ready for whether it be for the United National title, whether it be for the Margo World title.

01:15:46.256 --> 01:15:47.597
[SPEAKER_00]: I am coming for all of them.

01:15:48.017 --> 01:15:49.799
[SPEAKER_00]: I am a super rookie for a reason.

01:15:49.939 --> 01:15:51.960
[SPEAKER_00]: I was a golden rookie for a reason.

01:15:52.361 --> 01:15:53.301
[SPEAKER_00]: And now I am here.

01:15:53.422 --> 01:15:54.722
[SPEAKER_00]: I am pinning the icon.

01:15:54.763 --> 01:15:55.823
[SPEAKER_00]: She stood tall.

01:15:56.304 --> 01:15:59.166
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's so great to see for someone like Siri.

01:15:59.526 --> 01:16:00.447
[SPEAKER_00]: You can always tell

01:16:02.031 --> 01:16:03.893
[SPEAKER_00]: In her matches, she's super focused.

01:16:03.913 --> 01:16:05.155
[SPEAKER_00]: She's super laser focused.

01:16:05.215 --> 01:16:06.316
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to mess this up.

01:16:06.836 --> 01:16:08.879
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to walk away with the wind, right?

01:16:08.919 --> 01:16:11.722
[SPEAKER_00]: There's few wrestlers that I think care as much as she does.

01:16:12.022 --> 01:16:13.063
[SPEAKER_00]: You see her promos.

01:16:13.384 --> 01:16:14.125
[SPEAKER_00]: You see her tweets.

01:16:14.145 --> 01:16:15.867
[SPEAKER_00]: She's always like, I'm sorry guys.

01:16:15.947 --> 01:16:17.669
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, I want to get better.

01:16:17.709 --> 01:16:18.470
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to improve.

01:16:18.510 --> 01:16:19.270
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to win.

01:16:20.091 --> 01:16:23.173
[SPEAKER_00]: And ultimately, that's exactly what she did.

01:16:23.873 --> 01:16:35.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Sariyama Yoke pins my utonium after three stellar superfixes in the Oki clutch to get the win and close out at day one of the Dreamstar Grand Prix in in Fatic fashion.

01:16:35.938 --> 01:16:37.299
[SPEAKER_00]: This match rocked.

01:16:37.719 --> 01:16:39.060
[SPEAKER_00]: This show was really good.

01:16:39.080 --> 01:16:40.360
[SPEAKER_00]: I quite enjoyed it.

01:16:41.021 --> 01:16:42.181
[SPEAKER_00]: Lovely, lovely stuff.

01:16:42.501 --> 01:16:45.963
[SPEAKER_00]: Sariyama Yoke in Victoria Zoo gear right now, leading the pack for me.

01:16:46.543 --> 01:16:47.464
[SPEAKER_00]: as the MVP's.

01:16:48.024 --> 01:17:06.414
[SPEAKER_00]: Two matches this past Sunday and it started with none other than Chan Yoda versus Misa Matsui, both of them coming off big first days as Matsui had defeated Miku Aono in her opening match before losing in her second match.

01:17:06.434 --> 01:17:10.317
[SPEAKER_00]: While Chan Yoda defeated my soccer eye in her opening match.

01:17:11.457 --> 01:17:15.339
[SPEAKER_00]: and also went to an albreed because unit Tanaka in the second half.

01:17:15.379 --> 01:17:18.900
[SPEAKER_00]: So she had been leading the star league going into this match.

01:17:18.960 --> 01:17:23.923
[SPEAKER_00]: The only wrestler with four points, which I find to be a pretty important part.

01:17:23.963 --> 01:17:25.663
[SPEAKER_00]: This was of course, was in Hiroshima.

01:17:26.004 --> 01:17:29.025
[SPEAKER_00]: This is an important match for both of them.

01:17:29.045 --> 01:17:40.410
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, January is trying to continue that momentum while Misa Matsui is trying to get back on the winning track after having already earned the win over Miku.

01:17:40.710 --> 01:17:41.050
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

01:17:41.290 --> 01:17:55.859
[SPEAKER_00]: And overall, the match ended up being a solid little encounter, Misa Matsui worked on the right arm of Chenyoto, which is, of course, the Lariat arm, but Chenyoto in her strength and her power continued to work through that.

01:17:56.200 --> 01:18:05.565
[SPEAKER_00]: She sold it throughout the match and dealt with the pain of that, but continuously hit Misa Matsui with some big massive Lariat to keep it going.

01:18:05.865 --> 01:18:09.548
[SPEAKER_00]: Matsui would come back, though, with her offense overall,

01:18:10.068 --> 01:18:18.292
[SPEAKER_00]: And really, really bring it to Chan Yoda, who was on the back foot for the middle aspect of this match.

01:18:18.552 --> 01:18:24.455
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, she had her signature cross body, but eventually the power of Chan Yoda was going to be too much.

01:18:24.495 --> 01:18:29.137
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's exactly what it was that the power took over this match.

01:18:30.737 --> 01:18:34.499
[SPEAKER_00]: after she got out of the arm bar submission that Matsui put on.

01:18:34.799 --> 01:18:42.902
[SPEAKER_00]: She hit a massive layer, it turned me some Matsui inside out and then towards the end of the match hit the jackhammer.

01:18:43.162 --> 01:18:50.105
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was over there but it was only a two count as Matsui survived and you had a little shock on her face.

01:18:51.325 --> 01:18:54.308
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, trying to get into the next step, right?

01:18:54.328 --> 01:19:00.375
[SPEAKER_00]: We should hit that modified blue thunder bomb to beat my soccer eye on Saturday.

01:19:00.755 --> 01:19:02.917
[SPEAKER_00]: So maybe we were going to go back to the well there.

01:19:03.698 --> 01:19:11.025
[SPEAKER_00]: But ultimately, the way this match came to a close was Jan Yota after, you know, trying to think and think of what's next.

01:19:11.746 --> 01:19:13.288
[SPEAKER_00]: Beesamatsu is shocked everyone.

01:19:13.748 --> 01:19:22.973
[SPEAKER_00]: bring her, you know, grabbing her by the arms with her legs and putting on the bridge to get the victory and steal a win from Chan Yoda.

01:19:22.993 --> 01:19:24.914
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the only way to describe this match.

01:19:24.974 --> 01:19:28.136
[SPEAKER_00]: The way Chan Yoda had been working in that closing stretch.

01:19:28.196 --> 01:19:40.383
[SPEAKER_00]: It looked like she was on her way to victory, but me some actually earned her first or sorry, her second win of the tournament getting to four points and now tied a top the star league with Chan Yoda.

01:19:40.943 --> 01:19:50.792
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's a big massive win for Matsui who's now at two in one, just like Jan Yota heading into, you know, day three and beyond.

01:19:50.992 --> 01:19:52.754
[SPEAKER_00]: So a big time win there.

01:19:54.277 --> 01:20:01.899
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, we move forward now here with what was the second match of the show, the second tournament match.

01:20:01.919 --> 01:20:13.901
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was the Tommy Haseist of the Margo World Champion going, what I want with Chiyaki, Chiyaki was coming off in O'N two, opening night losing to both Seri, Amioka, and Victoria Yuzuki.

01:20:14.281 --> 01:20:21.603
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was not going to be easier for her there as she had to now take on Uttami Haseist of the Champion.

01:20:21.883 --> 01:20:22.043
[SPEAKER_00]: Now,

01:20:23.688 --> 01:20:28.316
[SPEAKER_00]: Jaki has slowly grown through the matches, right?

01:20:28.336 --> 01:20:36.149
[SPEAKER_00]: The first match, you get to pretty clean against Yamioka, but then she really dialed up the heeledness against Victoria, Yuzuke.

01:20:37.644 --> 01:20:39.425
[SPEAKER_00]: that continued to be the case here.

01:20:39.445 --> 01:20:48.868
[SPEAKER_00]: I get to Tommy attacking her before the bell, the same thing that Rhea Seta had did on Saturday and really bringing it to Uttami.

01:20:48.988 --> 01:20:51.649
[SPEAKER_00]: It was on her back foot, the entire match.

01:20:51.750 --> 01:20:56.251
[SPEAKER_00]: It was very rare that Tommy got much offense at all in this match.

01:20:56.271 --> 01:20:59.533
[SPEAKER_00]: This was a heavily dominated match by Chiyaki.

01:20:59.893 --> 01:21:02.974
[SPEAKER_00]: Once she got that open foot, she used every heel tactic.

01:21:03.434 --> 01:21:10.616
[SPEAKER_00]: Even when Utami finally started to get to the upper hand, she went back to heel tactics with a ref bump.

01:21:10.696 --> 01:21:14.617
[SPEAKER_00]: She got thrown into chairs, but then we had some power spots between the two ones.

01:21:14.637 --> 01:21:19.258
[SPEAKER_00]: They got back into the ring, running into each other with some shoulder blocks and so on.

01:21:19.598 --> 01:21:23.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Ultimately, that's when Utami won through, but that's when the ref was taken out.

01:21:24.179 --> 01:21:27.580
[SPEAKER_00]: Chiyaki attempted to use the chair, but she was instead

01:21:28.260 --> 01:21:34.243
[SPEAKER_00]: lifted in German suplex by utami who kept herself alive for just a little bit longer.

01:21:34.603 --> 01:21:40.065
[SPEAKER_00]: But Chiyaki would come back around with the rest still out, get the advantage, and a J.P.

01:21:40.105 --> 01:21:42.206
[SPEAKER_00]: coaster for a great near fall.

01:21:43.046 --> 01:21:45.447
[SPEAKER_00]: But the match ended when Chiyaki got caught.

01:21:45.607 --> 01:21:46.568
[SPEAKER_00]: She got caught running.

01:21:47.448 --> 01:21:52.490
[SPEAKER_00]: was Utami hit the torture rack bomb, kinda out of nowhere and pinned her for the win.

01:21:52.850 --> 01:22:02.433
[SPEAKER_00]: A heavily dominated match by Chiyaki one that she looked like she could pull off the biggest win of her career to this point, but it would not.

01:22:02.773 --> 01:22:03.013
[SPEAKER_00]: be.

01:22:03.494 --> 01:22:16.982
[SPEAKER_00]: Ultimately for utami, this was the continuation of following up, you know, that tough loss to Victoria Zuki in the opening show main event to now winning back to back matches against both of darkness revolutions competitors.

01:22:17.362 --> 01:22:20.524
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think that's an important aspect of this conversation.

01:22:20.584 --> 01:22:31.111
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's an important aspect of this is now she is back right on the horse, you know, no problem whatsoever after the, after the initial struggles, things turn around, things get going.

01:22:31.931 --> 01:22:37.234
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you to everyone who tacked out those reviews of the matches.

01:22:38.014 --> 01:22:39.976
[SPEAKER_00]: It's been a hell of a tournament season.

01:22:40.556 --> 01:22:49.101
[SPEAKER_00]: The five star has found the stride that I was desperately waiting for after a fine first week of action.

01:22:49.121 --> 01:22:50.721
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think we are in full gear.

01:22:51.042 --> 01:22:56.745
[SPEAKER_00]: The Sendai pitch show alone was one of my favorites, but the cork and brought it up even more.

01:22:57.205 --> 01:22:59.506
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm also starting to really enjoy the dream start.

01:22:59.546 --> 01:23:09.732
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, we're only through two days of the tournament, so it's a different grasp thus far, but hey, this weekend we have some incredible matches for the dream star as well.

01:23:09.792 --> 01:23:19.118
[SPEAKER_00]: This upcoming weekend for those wondering, day three will be Chiyaki versus Koki-Mari and my soccer givers, Chika-Gado, so a United National Tournament rematch.

01:23:19.578 --> 01:23:22.741

[SPEAKER_00]: You have me Samat Sui versus my soccer right, another United National Championship rematch, Marae versus Nagisanozaki, Mario Iwitani versus Reisetto, and Seri Yamiyoka versus Victoria Izuki.

01:23:36.276 --> 01:23:38.438
[SPEAKER_00]: That should be incredible.

01:23:38.718 --> 01:23:43.041
[SPEAKER_00]: In terms of the start-up coming dates, we have plenty here as well.

01:23:43.501 --> 01:24:01.114

01:24:01.654 --> 01:24:09.257

01:24:09.577 --> 01:24:12.618
[SPEAKER_00]: Then on Sunday, we're back for red stars action.

01:24:12.658 --> 01:24:14.479

[SPEAKER_00]: Unimumizamori versus Blocasuki Yamaha.

01:24:18.021 --> 01:24:21.822
[SPEAKER_00]: Hana versus Lady C. Starlight Kid versus Natsuko Tora.

01:24:22.082 --> 01:24:23.663
[SPEAKER_00]: Not too boy versus Rita.

01:24:23.683 --> 01:24:25.904
[SPEAKER_00]: One of my more anticipated matches overall as well.

01:24:27.052 --> 01:24:31.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Sayaka Karara versus Tamoki, Naba, and Azumi versus Riyan.

01:24:31.839 --> 01:24:32.780
[SPEAKER_00]: But that's not all.

01:24:32.880 --> 01:24:35.384

[SPEAKER_00]: Hanako vs. Sorry.

01:24:46.556 --> 01:24:50.297
[SPEAKER_00]: Momoa Tanabe vs. Hino, which I think is my most hyped match from that show.

01:24:50.637 --> 01:24:53.398
[SPEAKER_00]: And Momo Koga vs. Rana Yagami.

01:24:53.458 --> 01:24:55.259
[SPEAKER_00]: So lock in for all those.

01:24:55.419 --> 01:25:04.401
[SPEAKER_00]: But as I promised the very beginning of the show, if you listen to all the mix and matches of the daily reviews throughout this episode, thank you so much for doing that.

01:25:04.781 --> 01:25:09.282
[SPEAKER_00]: But I promise you some unique new content as always to the five star jersey show.

01:25:09.602 --> 01:25:10.222
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's only right.

01:25:10.562 --> 01:25:14.503
[SPEAKER_00]: I give you my top five matches through this point.

01:25:14.823 --> 01:25:17.504
[SPEAKER_00]: of the five star grand prix.

01:25:18.364 --> 01:25:19.485
[SPEAKER_00]: Start with number five.

01:25:19.645 --> 01:25:26.927
[SPEAKER_00]: My number five match of the five star grand prix to this point is none other than sorry versus heena.

01:25:27.348 --> 01:25:30.029
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry versus heena in heena's hometown.

01:25:30.089 --> 01:25:32.749
[SPEAKER_00]: That of course took place on day.

01:25:34.430 --> 01:25:52.361
[SPEAKER_00]: You would think I'd have that ready, but that took place on day five of the tournament in the main event of the day show, a fantastic encounter between the Sun God and the future of startup champion, where Hina was the ultimate baby face taking on the ultimate heal in Saarri.

01:25:53.213 --> 01:26:08.206
[SPEAKER_00]: Number four on my top five five star Grand Prix matches is none other than May Sarah versus Hanan from the Sendai pitch show a fantastic Sendai pitch show at that that of course took place on day four.

01:26:08.566 --> 01:26:10.287
[SPEAKER_00]: They went to a fifteen minute time limit.

01:26:10.327 --> 01:26:21.277
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a match two years in the making when I was greatly greatly, greatly anticipating and it lived up to my expectations and excellent excellent match.

01:26:22.117 --> 01:26:35.525
[SPEAKER_00]: My number three, match of the tournament, goes all the way back to day one, sorry versus Konami, a fantastic encounter between those two that resulted in the shock wind of Konami putting sorry to sleep.

01:26:35.925 --> 01:26:40.188
[SPEAKER_00]: A fantastic, fantastic, back and forth that I will not forget.

01:26:40.488 --> 01:26:41.949
[SPEAKER_00]: Am I final two top matches?

01:26:42.329 --> 01:26:43.770
[SPEAKER_00]: Come from the same exact show.

01:26:44.070 --> 01:26:48.913
[SPEAKER_00]: That is the five star Grand Prix, twenty, twenty, five, cork and hall show.

01:26:49.453 --> 01:26:51.935
[SPEAKER_00]: That was truly fantastic.

01:26:52.355 --> 01:26:56.139
[SPEAKER_00]: So my number two match from day six comes from the main event.

01:26:56.539 --> 01:26:59.181
[SPEAKER_00]: Saiya Kamatani versus Hanan.

01:26:59.201 --> 01:27:08.068
[SPEAKER_00]: A preview into a eventual epic that these two will have somewhere down the line likely for the world of startup championship.

01:27:08.148 --> 01:27:13.593
[SPEAKER_00]: A truly fantastic match and a match built for greatness somewhere down the line.

01:27:13.873 --> 01:27:17.736
[SPEAKER_00]: Hanan worked her way back into the match and put on incredible performance.

01:27:17.976 --> 01:27:22.397
[SPEAKER_00]: but was not, did not have enough to take down Saya Kamatani.

01:27:23.555 --> 01:27:33.824
[SPEAKER_00]: And finally, if you listen to the whole review, you know, my match of the tournament so far is from that cork and haul show from the semi-main event, Asami versus Rina.

01:27:33.924 --> 01:27:42.751
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't sing the praises of Rina more than I already have, but this is one of the best wrestlers in the world, and she is only getting started.

01:27:42.791 --> 01:27:45.073
[SPEAKER_00]: Her performance, I guess, Asami was second to none.

01:27:45.393 --> 01:27:48.836
[SPEAKER_00]: I think back to their high-speed Cherishimatch back in,

01:27:50.778 --> 01:27:58.886
[SPEAKER_00]: Two was it a fantastic affair back then considering the level that Reno was at at the time.

01:27:58.926 --> 01:28:08.556
[SPEAKER_00]: You fast forward now to Cork and all with these two facing off in a big time five star brand pre show and they absolutely hit a home run.

01:28:08.596 --> 01:28:10.218
[SPEAKER_00]: That is my match of the tournament, but

01:28:11.494 --> 01:28:12.715
[SPEAKER_00]: with the upcoming week ahead.

01:28:13.095 --> 01:28:14.457
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that will be stopped.

01:28:14.517 --> 01:28:18.380
[SPEAKER_00]: But thank you everyone for listening to this week's edition of the five star Joe show.
