Final update to this: KURAMA has unmasked and will be starting over as Yasutaka Yano, and will be joining AJPW as a new trainee. Always disappointing to remember that none of these companies have much shame, at the end of the day.
[TW: Sexual Assault]
AJPW has announced the return of former NOAH rookie Yasutaka Yano, currently wrestling under a mask as KURAMA. Yano was fired in 2023 following his arrest for sexually assaulting a woman. Here is AJPW's contact form if you wish to complain:

Miku went for a kickboxing session at the gym where Sakuraba trained and all she got was a SAKU style custom belt (and some suggestions from K-1 referee dude)

Sad Poi post-match was so great, how am I only seeing this now! All shaken, looks down and up and all around the room, but then she finds her focus and looks straight at the camera with tears AND determination.
The darker hair she turned to at Sareee*ISM so adds to the emoshs

This has been on my mind since it happened. Everyone focused on the sick bump right at the start of the match but what made this stick out was Poi instantly getting up on the ringside table for the stare down. #stardom

Mercedes/Willow pretty much a perfect pairing. Willow a pure-hearted dynamic powerhouse, Moné is evil and technically versatile and loves to get thrown around and die

the only healthy way to have a relationship with a wrestling company
is to have a LITTLE bit of Disdain for the booker at the very least .

I know Michiko Omukai does some Oni mask thing in her own promotion, it's just hilarious how Shinno keeps referring to her as that in interviews.

Looks like the last Japanese show of the year started early? Or rather WU schedule had it 40 mins later
Need to catch up and see if Megaton wins the rookie of the year tournament

Another year is almost in the books and with that, the chapter closes on what has to be the most stacked year of wrestling fashion I've had to rank yet. The hardest, but also most fun, year to date!

Still thinking about Natsupoi/Sareee at Queendom, a match I liked a lot and one that wasn't what I thought it would be (SPOILER obv but I'll hide as much as possible)

I guess H.A.T.E. stands tall? (bc Saya three-belts @ the Dome, Hanan return & Sakurara already beat the champs) but also I'm very bad at predictions so looking forward to being surprised 👍
