Geno ha scritto:Sato vs Dragon potenzialmente interessante ma l'esito mi pare scontato.
Se Sato avrà la shot prima di Aoki temo sia spacciato. Aoki sembra quello su cui stanno puntando di più, ora come ora.
Comunque Minamino regular sarebbe un bel colpo
Visto il secondo show televisivo della Jr League. Show di buon livello, in cui ogni match per la Jr League viene bene (difficile commentare giusto quello di Aoki, ma lì c'è la questione DK a tenere banco), con Mochizuki vs Sato e Asai vs Kotaro come prevedibili picchi. Il piatto forte è però nettamente il match valido per le cinte unificate, con gli Evolution a difendersi dall'assalto dei veterani Burning Wild. Il match è di alto livello, ben impostato e ben lottato, però il clippaggio è veramente una delle cose che meno sopporto, soprattutto nelle sfide titolate.

Ho notato anch'io questa cosa, ormai B-Banquet su GAORA non ne fanno quasi più, sempre più roba su Samurai! TV che però tratta il prodotto come se fosse una indy qualunque e non mi va giù.
E' veramente una cosa fastidiosa, guarda. Non siamo ai livelli dei Dramatic Fantasia, ma non mi puoi tagliare quasi 5 minuti su 25 di match, diobono.
Comunque se non ricordo male si era parlato di un nuovo show per la AJPW, però non ho più saputo niente dopo
Comunque quest'anno la finale del Carnival invece di andare live su GAORA andrà live su Samurai! TV. L'ultimo show AJPW live su Samurai! è stato quello ad Okinawa e il confezionamento è stato pessimo, mi metterebbe molta tristezza una finale del Carnival trattata in quel modo. La prima giornata invece sarà un B-Banquet.
Quest'anno ancora nessun PPV, se invece intendi i maxi show è un po' diverso.
Per esempio l'ultimo show importante della AJPW è stato Okinawa Impact del 23 febbraio ad Okinawa, in misura minore (ma ci sono comunque state un paio di difese) lo show del 18 marzo al Korakuen.
Per vedere i risultati passati e i tour futuri pianificati c'è Purolove, non so se posso linkarlo. Comunque gli show con le varie scritte tra parentesi dopo la data (Samurai! TV, GAORA, ecc) sono quelli trasmessi.
Gli show trasmessi si trovano su Dailymotion, ci sono un paio di canali che mettono letteralmente ogni cosa che esce in Giappone: major, indies e pure joshi
