Pacific Rim: Fumi Saito’s thoughts on NJPW G1, Asuka’s Stardom comments

Pacific Rim: Fumi Saito’s thoughts on NJPW G1, Asuka’s Stardom comments

The Pacific Rim Pro Wrestling Podcast is back.

I get Fumi Saito’s thoughts on this year’s NJPW G1 Climax like the 32-man format, Naito as the winner, SANADA, Kiyomiya’s performance and who he thought stood out.

So much of what we hear and read is from an English-speaking perspective so Fumi offers a perspective different than you’re going to get anywhere else.

From there, he also explains what he thinks Asuka’s recent social media posts about Stardom and the Japanese wrestling scene mean. What’s a work and what’s a shoot?

Plus, we talk the historic Manami Toyota vs. Toshiyo Yamada hair match, Yamada’s career and an update on her today, Koichi Yoshizawa and more.
