Open the Voice Gate - Rewind and Rewatch 12 - Bushido: Code of the Warrior Jun 22, 2020

Show notes

Welcome back to Open the Voice Gate - Rewind and Rewatch, where Case (https://twitter.com/_inyourcase) and Mike (https://twitter.com/fujiiheya) are Rewinding and Rewatching the Dragon Gate USA era of shows.

This week, they look at “Bushido: Code of the Warrior” from 10/29/2010 in Fall River, Massachusetts at the Police Athletic League Hall. Before tackling DGUSA’s iPPV debut, they run through the events leading up to this show, including the disappearance of Chikara Sekigun from DGUSA, the issues of iPPVs in 2010, Austin Aries jumping from Ring of Honor to DGUSA, other ROH shakeups, and the definitive timeline of the road to the Blood Warriors formation.

After that, Case and Mike review the first iPPV in DGUSA’s history, and the end of DGUSA’s streak of great shows. The formation of Ronin, the end of Jimmy Jacobs and Jon Moxley’s feud, and the only time that BXB Hulk and Shingo Takagi had a singles match outside of Japan are the highlights of this show. On the other hand, 2010 Homicide, Akebono, Austin Aries, and blowing up someone’s near year long storyline are the low lights. It’s a show of contrasts ya’ll.

The show review starts at 00:46:44 on this episode.

Wrestlenomics Radio: Class-action lawsuit against WWE over MENA TV rights Jun 20, 2020

Show notes

We learned of an update in the complaint filed by a pension leading a class-action lawsuit against WWE. The plaintiffs claim WWE and its executives failed to disclose information to stockholders as the company’s deal with Middle East North Africa TV partners OSN ended early, and an attempt to make a deal with Saudi-owned MBC faltered.

Numerous stories of abuse and sexual misconduct in the wrestling industry have appeared online in what’s being called the #SpeakingOut movement.

Plus the latest on COVID-19, as a talent tests positive, NJPW returns to events, and Dragon Gate is set to have its first event with fans, in July.
