I know who several of those women are and do not know who several other are at all. If it's half as good as the CWC or the UK Championship thing it should be a lot of fun.

I'm hyped for it so far. I'm going by presentation since I only know a few of the wrestlers by reputation, but the presentation is great.

G1 CLIMAX DAY 2
I think Block B is stronger overall, mainly because of Elgin, Tonga and especially SANADA there as potential spoilers. I hope Kojima wasn't Juice's lone big win. Kenny is a really fantastic babyface when he wants to be. I think SANADA vs Suzuki is the match I'm most interested in at this point as SANADA already wrestles like a face and no one is better than putting people in peril than Minoru.

What Do Drag and Wrestling Have in Common? More Than You ThinkHow the Nobodies, a Brooklyn-based group who report on the world of wrestling from a queer lens, encapsulate the surprising overlap between two very different realms.Interesting piece on the performed masculinity of men professional wrestling. Also the Nobodies are fantastic and you need to watch their youtube channel.

G1 CLIMAX DAY 3-5
Okada vs Elgin was astounding and will be difficult to top as match of the tournament. Fale is maybe stealth MVP so far with his heel work and it really feels like he can fuck up everyone's day after the Naito win. Some sort of BC break up angle looks inevitable now and I just hope we don't end up with Omega / Cody at WK. If KUSHIDA is resting up it's cool but I'm starting to miss him
My top 5 matches so far are 1) Okada vs Elgin 2) Naito vs Ibushi 3) EVIL vs SANADA 4) Nagata vs Tanahashi 5) Ishii vs Makabe

This makes me so unbelievably happy. Me too! The weird thing is, during the Great Khali's prominence I was not a fan at all. At the time I was fully on board the "I need more workrate and flips why doesn't WWE push actual wrestlers over freak shows like the Great Khali I think every match should be workrate and I believe everything I read in 411Wrestling" As we mature, our wrestling tastes mature with us. WOOOOOOO GUY FROM LIKE TEN YEARS AGO WHO LOOKS COOL AND PROBABLY STILL CAN'T WRESTLE

I don't want to see a 30 minute Great Khali match at SummerSlam, but if he sticks around and chokes dudes for Jinder as a bodyguard or does six man tag matches with the Singh Bros. where he just comes in an karate chops a dude in the top of the head to get the win, a short Great Khali return could be kind of fun. As an aside, I'm also glad that they've seemingly moved beyond the Attitude Era for their nostalgia acts now. Bring on more Ruthless Aggression dudes!

If they bring Paul Burchill back, they need to bring back his 'sister' as well. Someone give Vince the greenlight to try doing an incest angle again. Also, someone send the following sentence to one year ago: "Jinder Mahal moved to Smackdown in the superstar shakeup, became the number one contender, defeated Randy Orton to win the WWE Championship, and then defeated Randy Orton in two subsequent pay-per-view defences with the assistance of the Singh brothers and later a returning Great Khali in a Punjabi Prison match.

A year ago, send that message back to 4 months ago and no one would believe it. I've watched a lot of wrestling in my life and cannot recall a more batshit insane feud than this. Sure there's stuff like a be-masked Hulk Hogan and one legged Zack Gowen battling Roddy Piper and Sean O'Haire (in 2003) but that was some undercard nonsense, not the main event. And yes, obviously if they bring back Paul Burchill they'd need to bring his "sister" back.

For those of you who enjoy Japanese wrestling, three drag queens critiquing the outfits of wrestlers in the G1 thingy.
Ariel Italic, Lady Bearica Andrews, and DJ Accident Report give a long-form, audio-only rundown of their impressions of Japan's G1 Climax contenders based solely on images they pulled from a Google search.

G1 CLIMAX DAY 6-8
BBBBUUUURRRRRRRRNNNNIIIINNNNGGGG HHHHHAAAAAAMMMMMMEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR.
I was SURE Kenny was gonna win and wasn't happy about Elgin's finish not working on any of the top guys but then they went KING'S ROAD on us. And now Tama has bragging rights over beating Elgin when Kenny couldn't!
Okada heeling it up against Kojima was fucking glorious and I hope he keeps it up. If Juice beats him I'm gonna jump up and down for an hour.
ZSJ is the guy I like more and more during the tournament, I hope he doesn't stall after beating Tana and Fale.
The booking of both blocks is insanely good, A being wide open and B building to a titanic clash. I think Naito's gonna come out on top in the finals and I wonder how much more of a face him and LIJ are gonna be booked as, especially after EVIL upset MiSu

G1 CLIMAX DAY 14
THE JUICE IS LOOSE
EVERYTHING IS EVIL
THE JUICE IS LOOSE
EVERYTHING IS EVIL
THE JUICE IS LOOSE
EVERYTHING IS EVIL
I had SANADA as the breakout guy from this tourney but he lost to all three of the main eventers in his block and was first to lose to Kojima. EVIL beat MiSu and Okada (first singles loss in 363 days) and it's well deserved imo as his matches are great. Gedo is maybe the MVP for all of wrestling when he can pull off a night of amazing upsets like this.

Did anyone else watch the Mae Young Classic? I spent the day at a friend's house yesterday and blew through all four parts. It was awesome!
