Some Thoughts
So Riho made the jump to Stardom. That shocking bit of news was met with a mixed reaction from fans but from a pure in ring perspective is a good get for Stardom
She also fits what one imagines Stardom look for in a star so expect a big push out of the gate
Stardom has been giving some new names wins to build momentum as SLK, Leo Onozaki and Jamie Hayter are all picking up W’s.
Leo is probably being positioned as one of the main members of the Futures division alongside Saya and Utami
Bea and Momo having a clean finish this close to 5 Star was honestly a surprise, I was expecting a draw to help build to Momo winning the tournament and challenging Bea again.
It was smart to have Konami and Kyona’s first defense against Kagetsu and Miyagi, both are usually protected from losses so TCS getting the win made them look strong.
Is it just me or does Hana Kimura never really win?
