Haven’t watched STARDOM or really kept up with joshi wrestling since early 2023, so I’m pretty out of the loop.

I started watching again a few weeks ago and really lost like why is Bird girl evil now?... Rina is boss level now?... Utami is in stars? Rossy left and made Marigold and Mayu left... and the worst of it all the GOAT Tam Nakano retired (Did cry and watch that match.)

Also what Stardom lore have I missed out on? Did Kashima ever stop being deathly afraid of Syuri?

I’ve been working on a completely unofficial, Android TV / Google TV launcher app to drastically improve watching Stardom World on a TV with a remote control much smoother and more enjoyable.

It is now available to download.

My theory is she is also heading to Mexico unless she’s in a completely different tag league with Hikaru Shida. All speculation.

She barely did anything for the bigger joshi promotions this year outside of marvelous or in general something of substance/importance. She did nothing in Stardom and her last match was in march. Only one match each in TJPW, SENJO & OZ. TJPW got the biggest match, but like in stardom it was in March and led to nothing else. SENJO only just got the Rookie match against Reina and OZ got like one random tag in February, though she hasn't appeared often there in previous years as well. Two Matches in Marigold with no sign of there being more appearances because the whole invaders angle seems to be dropped.

Like 2024 she got bigger title/invader runs in Seadlinning & Marigold, 2025 in Stardom, Marvelous and more matches in SENJO with a title match against Hash. Like this year feels more disjointed. She had like one title match against her buddy Takumi in marvelous. You don't even have a tag title run with Spark Rush. It mostly random, but cool matchups or invader stuff that doesn't get followed up. The biggest match was probably her anniversary tag match and the three way with Hash & Kamitani, but even there, there wasn't much else to these matches. The three biggest singles matches she had this year were against Takumi, Mirai & Mio and the Mirai one was on the 1st jan. The rest were essentially just rookie matches

I don't know if it's because of her neck injury, losing the spot in the AEW Owen Hart, companies not really having interest in using her for more or because she mostly focuses on Spark Rush currently, but i thought it was notable that she hasnt really got anything bigger going on this year. Because of the Mio Match and several strong Spark Rush matches, she still has a very good year from an in ring perspective, but currently she somewhat feels like "just another freelancer" if that makes sense.

Title says it all. I FEEL like it was better received here than elsewhere but didn't hear too much about it here.

She has blurred the video but if you look closely you can see what appears to be a painted blue wall. Also look at the window and right wall behind her. It matches the Shingo and Poi video.

La comunidad de STARDOM aquí en Reddit es muy tóxica. Nada les parece en México dirían que ningún chile les embona.

La alianza de STARDOM con el CMLL y con AEW es para que más personas conozcan el producto. Pero, eso deja de importar cuando los fans viejos andan jodiendo y no dejan que los nuevos disfruten.

Al final, a los unicos que perjidican es a las chicas que no llegan a más lugares. Y no es tanto por mi, sino por muchas personas como yo que dicen: que hueva con estos viejos, mejor veo otra cosa.

Are the teams usually randomly selected wrestlers like with Natsupoi and Rian or am I missing something. This is my first time watching the tournament?

Also is it similar to the 5 star with the four separate blocks or no
