I am so glad to see this one back!

Cheers Dawn, learning this new code looks horrendous, so I appreciate the support!

If you're on mobile, then rotating to landscape seems to give the best view for the remainder of this diary.

After taking 5000 hours to sort this, the restart has finally kicked off with this roster update. The State of the Universe will be Wednesday, followed by the wrestler being pushed for the next 6 months first character focus on Friday.

Then the last 6 months will start a week today :)

Roster Update July Week 1 2023

After winning the battle with Cosmic Angel’s, STARS managed to capture the artists titles! Highlighting Mayu’s perfect start to 2023, as alongside seeing her factions members progress, she managed to also win the Red belt for an third time!

With Mayu setting the standard & Hazuki kicking on a level up to the main event, only Koguma lagging behind could stop the factions momentum.

Mayu Iwatani
2023 match record 21 – 2 – 17 / Winning Percentage 53% / Kanto Pop = 60, +7

Mayu has the climbed the STARDOM mountain once again to be the first wrestler in company history to win the World Title three times. Whilst her Artists belt reign with Saya & Hanan was short and sweet, this red belt run looks set to cement her legacy, with top tier defences after defeating Momo Watanabe, against Maya Yuhiki & KAIRI raising the belts prestige.

Hazuki
2023 match record 20 – 0 – 23 / Winning Percentage 47% / Kanto Pop = 55, +14

Hazuki’s win percentage is surprising given her huge push up the card, winning when it matters to ensure she had an incredibly strong start to the year! Huge pop growth from the young star also helps assert herself as second in command within the STARS ranks.

Koguma
2023 match record 11 – 0 – 28 / Winning Percentage 28% / Kanto Pop = 42, 0

Koguma not losing pop is a literally miracle after her one and only ppv win coming against Unagi. in desperate need of a revamp, the bear needs to improve her match ratings alongside establishing a rival, to turn around her fortunes. The cracked tail bone bumped her off the Supernova PPV just gone, so hopefully a change is incoming for her.

Saya Iida
2023 match record 11 – 0 – 30 / Winning Percentage 27% / Kanto Pop = 34, 0

Saya has definitely benefitted from working closely with Mayu at the start of the year but just hasn’t had an opportunity to show her skills. A potential Chris master’s style strength challenge is brewing in the back of my mind, potentially a survive 10 Iida chops and you automatically win but we’ll see.

Hanan
2023 match record 13 – 0 – 27 / Winning Percentage 33% / Kanto Pop = 30, +1

Hanan has grown next to Iida & Mayu but again hasn’t had the opportunity to breakout. Her performances have improved though which could definitely change things.

Momo Kohgo
2023 match record 9 – 0 – 31 / Winning Percentage 23% / Kanto Pop = 27, +4

Momo bounced back strong from her high-speed challenge flop against Kamitani, to respectable performances against and teaming with her mentor Hazuki. She has finally started to perform just outside of the Rookie division level which is promising though.

 

ALFA’s main feuds have been firmly against Vermillion World, as the faction came back with a bang, before being surprised by the remaining former DDM Members resilience.

With Giulia & Suzu holding the Tag team belts being the only real shining lights, after Mai Sakurai & Thekla’s inability to retain their respective golds, the group is looking to realign heading into the second half of the year.

Giulia
2023 match record 17 – 2 – 4 / Winning Percentage 74% / Kanto Pop = 48, +1

Giulia is an absolute star. Working together with Suzu is something I’m now begging to see in real life, as they would be an unstoppable force. I need to explore her leadership style & Suzu relationship more for the remainder of this diary.


Suzu Suzuki
2023 match record 17 – 3 - 3 / Winning Percentage 74% / Kanto Pop = 49, +2

Suzu has overtaken Giulia in terms of popularity, but in this moment is on the same wavelength, in attempting to rule STARDOM. Her faction betrayal did cost her their world tile, but the light schedule will allow her to take part in other events, so long as she comes back in almost 1 piece.

Thekla
2023 match record 17 - 1 – 3 / Winning Percentage 81% / Kanto Pop = 42, +2

Thekla ended the first half of the year with her title gone and her head shaved, negating her really strong winning percentage. Staying close to Giulia has ensured she will continue to gain more opportunities, and who knows, she may rock the bald look!

MIRAI
2023 match record 18 – 2 - 4 / Winning Percentage 75% / Kanto Pop = 38, +8

MIRAI has finally started to respond positively to the wins, by growing in popularity significantly, helped massively by her shock win over AZM. Operating as ALFA’s main bodyguard should allow her to continue to rack up wins, and even look towards some titles.

Mai Sakurai
2023 match record 11 – 0 – 7 / Winning Percentage 61% / Kanto Pop = 31, +2 

Mai overindulged whilst she has her maid in Waka, with life for the former Future champion going perfectly, until it wasn’t. Now beltless she’ll need to recover quickly to survive in ALFA, as she eyes the artist / SWA title scene.

Vermillion World’s main feuds have been the comeback effort against ALFA. The lack of traditional leader dynamic should hopefully elevate all 4, as new addition Yui Inihara will eat pins for the group, allowing the others momentum to stay red hot.

Syuri
2023 match record 26 – 4 – 10 / Winning Percentage 65% / Kanto Pop = 50, -2

Syuri has definitely been taken advantage of yet again, as her and Maika failed to collect the Goddess’s title twice. However, collecting the Artist belts should allow her to focus inwards and work on her internal faction relationships, whilst fighting in the battle with ALFA.

Maika
2023 match record 26 – 2 - 15 / Winning Percentage 60% / Kanto Pop = 49, +11

Maika has seen a huge popularity growth thanks to a Cinderella finals defeat to Hazuki and a huge win against former Faction leader Giulia ensuring that she is making the most of this push. This partnership with Himeka & Syuri should allow her to continue her rise into the main event scene.

Natsupoi
2023 match record 20 - 2 – 14 / Winning Percentage 56% / Kanto Pop = 45, +4

Natsupoi has finally defeated Thekla after being dumped out of the first round of the Cinderella and losing her Goddesses belt. She has captured the heart and minds of the fans in real life and has massively surprised me in this diary in terms of her match ratings!

Himeka
2023 match record 22 - 0 – 18 / Winning Percentage 55% / Kanto Pop = 47, +2

Himeka is waiting in the wings for her turn to takeover from Maika’s push to make huge moves entering the last 6 months of this diary. I’m thinking of pairing her up against MIRAI as the Vermillion World vs ALFA feud reaches its climax, as they are two lost soles looking for a rival.

Yui Inihara
2023 match record 1 – 0 - 31 / Winning Percentage 3% / Kanto Pop = 16, +12

Game created newgen Yui has finally wormed her way into Syuri & Cos resistant, after a gutsy performance at Supernova this year. Her loudmouth may have accidently lead her into a great position, although she would never admit it, being associated with this promising group will hopefully help her ramp up her wrestling ability, to be closer to her phenomenal mic skills.

Oedo Tai’s new leader Starlight Kid is looking to reshape the faction, as Tora’s discontent grows, and Momo’s White belt run continues to persevere.

With the other factions finishing their shuffling, it seems like these last 6 months will see all of Oedo Tai stepping up their game, rising to once again be a cohesive dominant heel unit that we all love to hate.

Starlight Kid
2023 match record 23 – 3 – 13 / Winning Percentage 59% / Kanto Pop = 48, +1

Starlight Kid is the wrestler who is being lined up for a huge push heading into the last part of this diary, with her faction being completely defined in the next 2 months, exciting times are ahead for the apparent 23 years old.

Momo Watanabe
2023 match record 24 – 1 – 6 / Winning Percentage 77% / Kanto Pop = 58, +2

Momo was struck by the injury bug yet again, which was devastating as this caused me to have to rewrite her red belt run again and on the fly pull forward the Mayu match, in order to take the belt off her. She is still 23 years old, which is frightening to think of given how talented she is and someone close to her will spice up her second white belt run!

Natsuko Tora
2023 match record 18 – 2 - 21 / Winning Percentage 44% / Kanto Pop = 46, +2

Natsuko is fully back from injury but isn’t pleased with being led by Starlight. The disgruntled Oedo Tai member has been taking out this frustration on her opponents / Kid, in a highly volatile situation!

Saki Kashima
2023 match record 17 – 2 – 23 / Winning Percentage 40% / Kanto Pop = 43, -1

Saki will have to be patient, but a slot is opening up in my head which will allow her to finally show some personality in the group, in terms of actually having a storyline to grow in. The master of the Spapapan is always on the lookout for those sneaky pins!

Ruaka
2023 match record 9 – 0 – 18 / Winning Percentage 33% / Kanto Pop = 23, +1

Ruaka is the first member who will change in Oedo Tai in the real near future, whether the one half of the black Tiger Kaidou tag team with Starlight Kid will enjoy this change will remain to be seen!

 Queen's Quest have mainly been establishing KAIRI as the main leader, and Saya Kamitani’s brilliant High-Speed title reign finally coming to an end against Hazuki.

The unit still have a couple of huge twists before being fully established in its final form, with the unit losing Utami & Lady C, a spot has certainly opened up.

 

Click here to see individual wrestler summaries

 

KAIRI
2023 match record 25 – 2 – 13 / Winning Percentage 63% / Kanto Pop = 56, +2

KAIRI has lost her new comer aura but is striving to continue to improve her faction. She has fallen short to Mayu for both her red belt and old Artists belt but with white hot momentum and a stable with 3 outstanding prospects to mold, it won’t be long before Queen’s Quest return to their former glory!

AZM
2023 match record 23 – 2 – 15 / Winning Percentage 58% / Kanto Pop = 41, -5

AZM came up short in her rivalry with KAIRI and crashing out of the first round of Cinderella will be devastating for her given she won the tournament just last year. Her recent partnership with KAIRI has seen positive results, which offers a silver lining for her future.

Saya Kamitani
2023 match record 24 – 1 – 16 / Winning Percentage 59% / Kanto Pop = 49, +1

Saya has put the high speed division on her back ensuring the title continued to have strong defences throughout the year. She is now at a main event level to kick on and as Mayu hinted at earlier in the month when the red belt champ said she was willing to put her over twice in the next 2 months, she has a bright future!

Miyu Amasaki
2023 match record 12 – 1 – 27 / Winning Percentage 30% / Kanto Pop = 26, +6

Miyu has had a quiet year supporting QQ, only really standing out in January as she has Lady C’s final match.

Cosmic Angel’s main feuds have been the war with STARS leading into Tam reshuffling the unit, by establishing Mei Hoshizuki & Maya Yukihi above Unagi & Mina, alongside lastly kicking out Waka.

The Waka storyline will be revisited very soon alongside the lack of championship gold will be a priority entering in the final stretch of the diary.

Tam Nakano
2023 match record 17 – 2 – 20 / Winning Percentage 43% / Kanto Pop = 56, +13

Tam is risking falling into the sweet embrace of the dark side, with the temptations of shortcutting to success being too tempting to resist. The Cinderella finalist snapped on Waka which will lead to a huge singles match in the future. Her roster receiving Yuhiki & Hoshizuki will shift the dynamic, as Tam will have to resist the delicious life of being the cutest in the cosmos, in favor of appearing “cool” in front of her new friends.

Maya Yukihi
2023 match record 2 - 1 – 1 / Winning Percentage 50% / Kanto Pop = 48, +6

Maya Yukihi comes into STARDOM as STARDOM as Tam Nakano’s right hand women. The now 29 years old ice ribbon trained wrestler has won the main title in both ice ribbon & OZ Academy twice, highlighting her main event aura. Her nicknames on cagematch.net are the “Black Snow”, “Crystal Snow” & “Snow Princess” imply she’ll bring a colder more serious atmosphere to Cosmic Angels.

Mei Hoshizuki
2023 match record 12 - 1 – 11 / Winning Percentage 50% / Kanto Pop = 35, +10

Mei’s growth in pop has been crucial in now establishing a platform to now push her from, as the 50/50 booking combined with a slow start may have dampened her debut. Hopefully this new look Cosmic Angels will give her more opportunities.

Unagi Sayaka
2023 match record 12 – 0 – 28 / Winning Percentage 30% / Kanto Pop = 39, -1


Unagi’s poor momentum and lack of opportunities have meant that she has played a limited role in this diary. in real life she has started to step up to the skills required to match her push but what I want to see from her is a fresh new gimmick resetting the momentum, followed by an improvement in in ring ratings.

Mina Shirakawa
2023 match record 9 – 0 – 31 / Winning Percentage 38% / Kanto Pop = 40, -1

Mina has also suffered from a lack of creative, which again can be resolved by improved match ratings and a rival emerging.

Waka Tsukiyama
2023 match record 2 – 0 – 12 / Winning Percentage 14% / Kanto Pop = 23, +1

Waka is your Future of STARDOM champion, having survived being Mai Sakurai’s maid for months. The joy of that first pinfall was stopped right in its tracks thanks to Tam kicking her out of Cosmic Angels, leaving Waka homeless as she looks to defend her belt, which in STARDOM is always tough to do.

Skye Blue
STARDOM 2023 match record 4 – 0 – 9 / Winning Percentage 31% / Kanto Pop = 31, +9

Skye Blue has had title shots for the Wonder & Artist belts and played her role perfectly in padding out the champions stats, whilst improving her in ring skills and overall popularity. Getting to mix and match in the various factions over the next 6 months should allow her to continue to develop.

Brittany Bryant
STARDOM 2023 match record 4 – 0 – 9 / Winning Percentage 31% / Kanto Pop = 15, +15

Brittany Bryant will massively mistreated, given I forgot that she has held the AEW women's championship! but the rookie has a lot of pop to gain and skills to learn, which hopefully will fuel her to kick on in her career and begrudgingly look back at this excursion positively.

Obviously you're a fan of Stardom. I like your dynasty by the way. I like the real Stardom, but I find it a little hard to keep interest without any English commentary or subtitles. Anyways, idk if you saw, but since Bushiroad own both Stardom and NJPW, NJPW are going to introduce the IWGP Women's Title. I think the debut is in November. It will be fought for mainly on New Japan shows by Stardom stars.

[Mokoa]

Tons of interesting stuff gone and coming here. MIRAI's pop surprised me a little. And the duo of Maya Yukihi and Tam Nakano promise to be a force.

[Dawn]

Mayu and Natsupoi gang for life!

Cheers Djskeemask! Its definately jarring to get used to no commentary and the completely opposite style of storytelling! The best advice Ive seen is to pick a wrestler you like and follow their journey, but its kot everyones cup of tea.

I did see the new belt which is really exciting! Im not sure it'll fit into this diary, but i hope someone picks up STARDOM in the future and rocks with it!

Thanks Mokoa! Yeah its a shame about the workload needed to fix everything else, ive given up with the converter, so am purely focussing on finishing up this diary, im afraid! Its funny how things like MIRAIs pop growth or Bryants backstory get forgotten, so I love these checks! Yeah itll give Tams character finally something to focus on, and barring injury, gold has to be in Cosmic Angels short term future. Cheers!

Lol MayuPoi tag team to take all of the belts, please and thank you! Cheers!

[djskeemask]

I am a fan of Giulia! Not only is she almost as hot as my girl Toni Storm (which I've heard Toni has wrestled for Stardom at some point), but she is a very talented wrestler male or female. She was the first one who I noticed the talent when I watched my first few Stardom events. She seems to get over with the crowd too. I've hired her in a few of my saves and she always rises to the top. I don't even have to try to push her. I like, also, how Stardom uses a lot of stables like NJPW. Stables are a good way to legitimize all the 6,8,10 man tag matches that are frequently used in Japan. Although, I can say Bullet Club is getting quite stale. At least to me. Any suggestions on who to check out in Stardom? I'd like to hear who you focus on, IRL.

Yeah Giulia has come a long way since her debut in Stardom for sure, the confidence is on a different level! Yeah stable farefare is so easy to book / build fueds with, so much better than the sink or swim western style! 

The thing I like most about Stardom is I could literally pull from half the roster!

My favourite irl is AZM as she's so smooth in the ring, winning best technique in the 5STAR twice on the bounce!

Id be intereeted to hear what other readers would say ... but knowing them they will all say Natsupoi :P

I posted this earlier in the diary but If you type "We are stardom" into youtube I'd recommend episode 112 to get a nice mix of the current roster / key fueds or episode 8 to see from the 10 minute mark, Momo Watanabe vs Mayu from 2020, as it probably is my fav match ever in Stardom!

Thanks for the quick reply. Curious what 5STAR is, I will google. Gonna check out your youtube suggestion too! I may even start a new TEW save playing as them also to help me get a feel for the roster. I have a mod with only women in real companies. Such as AEW, but only using women, with men only used as refs, road agents and managers. I remember pulling from Stardom to supplement my roster, but I couldn't tell you who they were. I am horrible with Japanese names. I watch NJPW pretty religiously but still have a hard time remembering some of the lesser known stars and pronunciations of the names. But I digress. I look forward to your future dynasty posts and I enjoyed the back and forth today. I'm attaching some generated Asian faces I've used for free pictures. You're welcome to them. I have a ton of them, all races. They are all transparent for any background.

All Elite Wrestling (AEW) have stagnated in finances, size & event ratings, as the company are looking for ways to grow. Match of the year so far saw PAC & Bryan Danielson defeating the Young Buck for a 95.

Utami has had a rough first two months over on excursion, losing to Jamie Hayter in the rematch, before losing to a newgen & Nyla Rose on the preshows of Dark. With match ratings in the mid 50’s, hopefully a couple of wins can give a big jump in pop, which will get the ball rolling!

Good updates. Is that you're writing, or are you using what the game AI does?
Your formatting has a couple spots where it is showing some of the html code. (=\"3\">) over and over around the bottommost stardom banner. And (=\trebuchet>) underneath the whole thing

Thank you, good call, i hit preview and none of that wierd code is there, but when I submit it appears, I may raise it as a bug, but good spot!

 

Just me flicking through the companies in the diaries and writing a couple of sentences on how they are doing

[djskeemask]

No prob bro.

I'm glad. I was gonna have to question your booking skills after reading a couple of those. 🤪

So AZM is the final wrestler to receive a big push in the last 6 months of this diary, Rateddc with the great pick! Fist tour shows back all set for next Monday!

Misunderstood – An AZM Character Focus

The energy of downtown Tokyo on a Saturday night hits different. With the hustle and bustle of the masses combined with the intoxicating smells of the various food and alcohol ensuring a special atmosphere.

Here is where we see Queen’s Quest relaxing in a booth, focussing on a young woman bouncing her leg nervously, waiting for her food to arrive. AZM waves off her friends offer of some of their meals, as the Tokyo native steadfastly waits for her absolute favourite sushi dish to arrive.

However, the hope of her favourite dish is scuppered as a coy waitress makes her way over with her head hung low to inform them that the last batch of rice has been burnt.

Instead of being frustrated, AZM asks for another Melon Soda drink before reassuring everyone that she wasn’t really hungry anyway. Uneasily QQ all finish up the scraps of their meals, and get up to go, although KAIRI hold AZM back.

As Kamitani links arms with Amasaki, she continues her lecture on the beauty of flight and the reasons why the pair should team up. As her & Saya reach the restraint door, Miyu looks back with a please don’t leave me look on her face.

“What’s the matter?” KAIRI asks with a concerned looked that seems genuine but still annoys AZM just slightly, as she hates any sort of pity.

“Nothing at all” is the quick response as AZM reaches for her coat.

“Ehhhh” KAIRI curiously questions, before pondering then remarking “Is it boy trouble?”

An even louder “ehhhh” is returned by a gobsmacked AZM

“Yes, yes, yes, naturally this is the most logical explanation, in fact we’ve been teaming up recently inside the ring, lets team up outside the ring too” KAIRI directs before leaving.

AZM shakes her head wondering what on earth is KAIRI plotting, before gathering her things and following her senpie out of the door.

- Starlight vs Momo was a requested match, which the only way I could fit in was the first month, I do have a cool story for both ladies, but hopefully this one delivers!

- After securing them the title shot to show off the new Cosmic Angels vision, Tam was very disappointed with Delicious (Mina & Unagi) which won’t be Tam’s only hunt for gold in the short term …

Show Notes

- EHH! Tam clearly wants to go back to my old diary as Leader of Oedo Tai, or have 6 alter egos leading each of the factions…


- Tam & Mayu going back and forth on the mic was absolute gold. My new plan should be for Tam to win every main event match, as she has been brilliant on the mic!

"Bah gawd, Tamiko is back! Mayu is broken in half!"

Now, being serious, Maika, Hanan, Thekla and Natsuko have been delivering better performances than back in the beggining of this diary. I remember when Natsuko came back from injury and was in the 30s on performance.

Saki Kashima has been awesome irl. Showing more personality lately. Being Oedo Tai's godmother, she reminds me of Hazuki back then.

Tamiko takes no prisoners! Huge win considering I rarely pin my world champ!

 

True yeah Tora must have shaken off some ring rust to put in solid midcard ratings. The other 3 I'm surprised considering they haven't been given a huge push, maybe outside of Maika in the Cinderella.

 

Yeah Saki has been putting on some bangers, I'm so excited for that charachter change to take full effect, just in time for the tag match you won as a prize we discussed, but I'll keep it a secret for everyone else!

 

Love the mini Mokoa report, highlighting the best / areas of improvement in the diary, I appreciate you Mokoa!

Shoutout to Dalton, as his awesome AEW diary I peeked into the source to work out how to pad my text, well worth a read!
