Wrestling Omakase #60: King of DDT, TJPW 8/25 Review & All In/NJPW Destruction Preview w/ Taylor
It's a packed episode of Wrestling Omakase! John is joined by returning guest Taylor (@tamaimbo) as they start by discussing three big Korakuen Hall shows from this past weekend. First it's the King of DDT 3rd Round show from 8/25, as they talk a stellar top four matches featuring the quarterfinals of DDT's big single elimination tournament. Then it's Tokyo Joshi Pro's 8/25 Korakuen featuring a huge Yamashita-Yuu title match main event, guest stars, superhero wasabi tricks, BETTER CALLBACKS THAN GARGANO-CIAMPA~!!, and more. Finally the three shows wrap up with the King of DDT Finals from 8/26, as we find out who is going to the main event of Peter Pan at Sumo Hall, say goodbye to a longtime DDT unit, and more.
Once those three shows are done we dive deep with a big preview of the entire All In card this weekend, discuss things we're looking forward to and things we're very much not looking forward to, and John gives their case on why they aren't much excited for this show they're attending. Then we go through the upcoming NJPW Destruction tour with a quick preview of the main events and a few other big matches from the tour, as well as the next US show at the end of September. Finally, we wrap things up with a spirited mailbag, including TAYLOR'S ANIME PICKS. It's a jam packed episode full of all sorts of different wrestling talk, this week on Omakase!
