Starlight Kid & Natsuko Tora vs. Kaori Yoneyama & Ruaka This was very good quality for an opener. While you could argue that most of the participants in this match deserve to be much higher on the card it was still entertaining. Starlight Kid pinned Ruaka after a beautiful reverse frog splash. 2.25/5 Hanan vs. […]

Hiromi Mimura vs. Ruaka A pretty basic, but solid, opener. Having Hiromi added a little more character but the wrestling was still the same as most Stardom openers. Hiromi Mimura pinned Ruaka for the win. 2/5 Hanan vs. Konami Good match and a step up for Hanan. She received a lot of punishment throughout and […]

Hanan vs. Ruaka This is the same opening match for the third show in a row which is a little disappointing, though as they have been to three different audiences I guess it makes sense in Japan. Again, the work was very solid, but basic. Hanan pinned Ruaka for the win. 2/5 Sumire Natsu vs. […]

Hanan vs. Ruaka Another solid opening match from these two. Nothing particularly new but they worked smooth. Ruaka pinned Hanan after a fisherman’s suplex for the win. 2/5 Starlight Kid & Shiki Shibusawa vs. Scarlett & Chardonnay Starlight Kid continues to be incredibly impressive and Scarlett & Chardonnay both looked solid. Shiki continues to look […]

Ruaka vs. Hina vs. Rina vs. Hanan It’s the first time in quite a while that Hina & Rina have been in the ring. Both did fine, especially considering their young age. The match was a very standard opener which nothing really noteworthy in terms of offence. As Hina and Rina tried to pin Hanan […]

Hiroyo Matsumoto vs. Kris Wolf This is a match that could be really great if it was further up the card and really meant something. Hopefully Matsumoto can have a good run in Stardom again soon. This match was fairly short and with more comedy than wrestling but there were still glimpses of the quality […]

Ruaka vs. Kaori Yoneyama vs. Hanan I expected this to be a very standard opener but it was a little better than that. Yoneyama interacted well with the crowd as usual and both Ruaka & Hanan worked well to put on an entertaining match. I’d still like to see Yoneyama further up the card but […]

Kikimaru (Hanan) vs. Bear Cat (Ruaka) vs. Starlight Kid A very good showing from the three youngsters. All three managed to squeeze in a good kip up and the work throughout looked solid. Starlight Kid pinned Hanan after a standing moonsault. 2.25/5 Nightmare Demon (Bea Priestley) & Lady Punk (Chardonnay) vs. Sweet and Spicy (Kelly […]

Hanan vs. Kris Wolf It’s nice to see Hanan progressing in this fast-paced opener. Kris is at a level where she is entertaining anywhere on the card too although it is a shame she could not be in the tag league due to Tam Nakano’s injury. This was fast and pretty smooth. The highlight came […]

Shiki Shibusawa vs. Natsuko Tora There was another pretty bad botch by Shiki Shibusawa in this match. Natsuko had dominated most of the match and Shiki was just starting her comeback when she attempted a bodyslam which barely left the mat before both wrestlers collapsed. It looked awful and if the collapse had come a […]

Starlight Kid & Shiki Shibusawa vs. Hanan & Ruaka A fun opener for this show. Starlight Kid looked miles ahead of everyone else with her smooth offence but they all did fine. Shiki looked a little more confident and expressive today compared to recent shows. Starlight Kid pinned Ruaka after a splash. 2/5 Kelly Klein […]

Ruaka vs. Hanan A little different from most Stardom openers as this had far more grappling and a lot less pin attempts, which is definitely a good thing. The main part of the match was dominated by a big Boston crab by Ruaka. Hanan sold it very well and got to the ropes before Ruaka […]
