Shake Them Ropes. It's Fine Mar 27, 2026

Show notes

Who is actually going to get cheered at Wrestlemania? Who wants to see WWE Stars do standup? Jeff apparently said "It's Fine" 14 times in the last segment because if you want Jeff not to care about something, it's the state of standup comedy in 2026.

Wrestling Omakase #288: New Japan Cup Nights 10, 11 & Finals, DDT Judgement, AJPW 3/20 Hachioji & Tokyo Joshi Texas Tour w/ John Bivins Mar 24, 2026

Show notes

It's another John & John episode! John Bivins is back as the two of them break down an outstanding end to the New Japan Cup, talking the final two quarterfinal matches from night 10, both semifinals from night 11, and then the entire final night including of course the tournament final itself. Lots of talk about NJPW's young generation really stepping up, Shota Umino maybe forcing people to take some Ls (including at least one John!) and more, plus a look ahead to what the rest of the year might look like. Then it's over to DDT to talk an equally outstanding Judgement show from Korakuen Hall, a very deep card that showed off their huge bounty of young talent. We also discuss the very sad news of Kazusada Higuchi's sudden retirement.

Afterward we break down AJPW's Hachioji show from 3/20, a weird card featuring a Triple Crown title match and not a whole lot else. Finally, we wrap things up with some of the highlights from all four TJPW shows down in Texas, and then a full preview of next weekend's big Grand Princess show!
