Drilla and his thing for tall, dark haired men.

Konosuke Takeshita has a hold of Drilla Moloney's hair and is yelling at him about Gabe Kidd. Drilla Moloney is on his knees and looks at Takeshita like he's seen god.

YOH certainly has the NJPW boys acting a certain way lately. Lots of kissing, trying to kiss, copying him, flirting with him, and whatever this is?

Don't look at me like that. YOU were trying to take his pants off, not me.

New Japan's camera work remains incredible.

There's something bittersweet about this image. Hiromu moved from right next to Naito while they did their roll call to in between Tsuji and Shingo. They're watching as Naito and Bushi say goodbye and walk off.

Man, I'd love to know how Hiromu feels about all this. Naito's calling his name here for the roll call and he's just...gone. Staring off into space.

That moment after the match where Shota reaches for Finlay. And then several times more after Finlay gets announced the winner.

David Finlay talks (shit) to Shota Umino while his hand is raised in victory. A beaten Shota reaches for Finlay as he does so.

David Finlay stands tall as the winner of the New Japan Cup. Meanwhile Shota Umino lies on the canvas, beaten, clutching Finlay's foot.

That almost fond expression from Finlay there. It's so very true that good friends have the best grudge matches because they trust each other and put in 110%.

Shota Umino on the mic talking to David Finlay, who looks almost fond as he watches him.

I saw Yuma do this recently and thought he looked very much like Atsuki in that moment.

I really hope that the fans who asked for a different side to him give him a chance now. Because this is a different side to him.

New Japan and their camera work DOES NOT MISS. (Except when they cut away just as Tsuji unveiled his tiny new pants. That was a definite miss.)

I wonder if Taichi sees SANADA when he looks at Yuya.

I need them to stop. I am feeling all the things.

Said something very dangerous on the other website just now. Pray for me.

I spun the wheel for @sisterjessie.bsky.social and got Ren Ayabe. Good luck! (He should become your favourite wrestler RIGHT NOW, because this is clearly meant to be. You two are DESTINED. XD I swear this is the legit result you got.)

Hokuto Omori so often has me feeling bad for him over stuff I know I'm supposed to find funny. He just wanted to blow you a kiss, Yuma, and now look at his sad face.
