Wrestling Chatter

Hi guys, For this week's post, I'm moving away from my usual wrestling posts with something I used to do on my music blog: an album review. But I'm not completely mad because there's a link to wrestling, I promise.  I've tweeted a lot about how much I love NJPW's Rocky Romero. He's got the charisma, talent and is both an amazing wrestler and commentator. However, he's also an amazing musician and has released a lot of EPs over the past few years and has today released his newest album perfectly named 'Sneaky Style.' With 11 tracks, I thought I'd have a look at the songs and maybe give you some reasons to go out and buy/ stream it! In the usual Rocky Romero style, the album starts of with the intro track Sneaky Style featuring the one and only Kevin Kelly. Its the perfect way to start the album with a nice slow and steady tempo with a nice mix of singing and rapping: 'I'm the King of Roppongi and the King of Sneaky Sty

Hi guys, In a time where darkness seemed to shroud New Japan, a crop of young lions made their way to the dojo with dreams of making it. Amongst the newest NJ prospects, a Young Hiroshi Tanahashi pledged to make his mark on the company and bring it into the light. 20 years later, the Ace of New Japan is still that shining beacon touching the hearts of crowds across the world. 20 years of going out each show and giving the fans what they want, pouring his heart and soul into every match he's in and representing NJ the way it deserves to be. So, in celebration of Tanahashi's 20th wrestling anniversary, I'm going to have a look back at what makes the Ace the centre of New Japan and in the heart of it's fans. I'll have a look at his humble days as a Young Lion, his rise to stardom and his current status as a father figure to the up and coming talent.

Hi guys, Another month, another New Japan tournament which is always exciting. This time, we've got Power Struggle aka the Jr Tag League which is my favourite of the two tag league's because #JrPride. Over the past few months, we've seen the Jr tag division thin out slightly, but that doesn't stop the talent from being out of this world. As always, the league is bringing together some of the best Jr tag teams from NJPW, ROH and CMLL. As always, I'm here with a preview of the upcoming tour and specifically looking at all the teams involved this year. TJP and Clark Connors After teasing his appearance for the Jr tag league, it's nice to see TJP back in NJPW and the Jr heavyweight division. I know there's always grumblings, but TJP is home. For any of you who don't know, he was part of the original LA Dojo under Inoki with the likes of Rocky Romero and Bryan Danielson. You're putting the old with the new as he teams with LA Dojo Captain Cla
