Some Thoughts
Konami is definitely winning the title at Year End Climax. There would be no reason for her to debut a new submission variant and not use it to win a big match.
Zoe and Martina ending their tours as the pin eaters of their respective groups
Saya Kamitani continues to be positioned above her seniors in the rookie showcase matches
Natsuko Tora is getting built up for her clash with Hazuki. Hopefully, this leads to an extended push from Stardom as she’s now one of only 2 full-time Oedo Tai members
Giulia is now 3 for 3 in Stardom. They’ve really got behind her immediately and positioned her as a real threat already. It will be interesting to see what level she settles at once she inevitably joins a faction.
Andras Miyagi became exciting for all of 5 minutes and has been kicked right back to the undercard with loss after loss.
Jamie Hayter and AZM being the only people to get pins over Hazuki in the gauntlet isn’t something to skip over. Stardom is clearly high on both and beating a retiring roster member surely means something
