Omega fucking sucks and I’ll take Disco Inferno any day. More people watched and cared about a Disco Inferno “enhancement” match than have ever given a flying fuck about Omega vs. Okada. Fact.

I don’t think I’ve seen anything as overrated in wrestling as modern Japanese wrestling.
Stardom is the most effeciently booked promotion today. Sounds wild, but its true. Three of their top stars retired (one of which doubled as their head trainer), then you had the Hana Kimura tragedy happen, and shortly after that the pandemic. I literally thought they were going to go out of business. But by effectively elevating their younger talent, and bringing in new talent that fits in well with the existing roster, they've not only survived, they have thrived, and are more popular than they've ever been.

There will always be a contingent of the IWC that overrates japanese wrestling. Thats never going to go away. But Stardom deserves the hype its been getting.
