Japs love the letter "L" because it to them it feels exotic and that's probably why they named it "GLEAT"

>[Osaka Pro Wrestling] President Zeus scores an impressive victory at his 20th anniversary show: "Life is a festival! Wasshoi, wasshoi!"

>Osaka Pro Wrestling president Zeus held a show commemorating the 20th anniversary of his debut on the 11th at Azalea Taisho Hall in Osaka.

>Zeus made his debut in November 2006. Although he has recently been limiting his appearances due to a neck injury, he made his long-awaited return to the ring for his 20th anniversary match. In the main event, he teamed with Matsufusa Ryuya and Yoshimura Naomi to face Sekimoto Daisuke, Sano Aran, & Dylan James in a six-man tag team match.

>Perhaps because he had not yet regained his ring instincts, Zeus frequently found himself trapped in the opposing team's corner. However, he couldn't afford an embarrassing result in his anniversary match. He fought back with knife-edge chops and other attacks before finally putting Sano away with his signature Jackhammer following a lariat to secure the three-count. It was a hard-fought battle lasting 19 minutes and 42 seconds.

>After the match, video messages celebrating Zeus's 20th anniversary were shown, with Akiyama Jun, Suwama, Aoyagi Yuma, Shiozaki Go, Miyahara Kento, and others sharing memories and offering their congratulations. Furthermore, his former allies Izanagi and GAINA personally presented him with bouquets of flowers, much to Zeus's delight.

>Zeus addressed the crowd, saying, "I love you all. I want us all to be happy, and I want to make everyone happy. Let's make it so that when people think of Osaka, they think of Yoshimoto, Universal Studios Japan, and Osaka Pro Wrestling. Let's make it so that when people talk about the major wrestling promotions, they name New Japan Pro Wrestling and Osaka Pro Wrestling!" Finally, he brought his 20th anniversary celebration to a close by shouting, "Life is a festival! Wasshoi, wasshoi!" together with the capacity crowd.

NOAH in the 2000s is one of my favorite promotions of all-time and they had a great rebound from around 2015 - 2023 or so, but the modern style is basically sports-entertainment lite.
All Japan is my favorite current promotion. It's basically the last promotion in Japan that feels like it's trying to work the traditional heavyweight style. I was kinda dissatisfied with them early last year because it felt like they were phoning it in with a lot of comedy matches, but they changed focus late last year by deemphasizing comedy and putting more emphasis on in-ring work. Whether there was a causal relationship or not, it seemed to coincide with the re-arrival of Go Shiozaki in October last year.

>>21337842
I know some friends that like the Havoc stable in All Japan. There's also a lot of youth in the promotion. It's worth a try, but I don't think it'll be everyone's cup of tea.

NOAH has a good main event scene, but Naito will be a mixed bag.

>>21337842
i mostly watch njpw and ddt, and watching shows from other promotions (noah/dg) when they are interesting.
i hate njpw booking like everyone else, but beside few names im not /that/ emotionally invested so i can just enjoy big shows. today tho was such a turn off with the aew involvement... depending how WK will go i might just move watching more noah and dg

Sendai Girls is the most low cortisol promotion that still has a decent standard of in-ring work out there right now. I always end up relaxing and falling asleep to it after a hard day of being stressed out about NJPW.

So they ended Ryoya’s reign to DK for Fuda’s push, then don’t place Fuda in the tournament? Also wild they picked the worst member of Love & Peace as their representative.

i wanna get back into ajpw. but i need u to upload it all to dailymotions
