"There's a time for playing it safe and a time for... Risky Business."

The Stiff Bois return to talk the big news coming out of Genesis weekend; talking Jnr Genesis, Sakura Genesis and previewing Windy City Riot. The lads start the show with an Ode to Korakuen, chat Despy the Ace, Connors character affirmation, the two Robbies and the BoSJ field. Then its on to Sneaky Snake SANADA, the now annual Dog Pound Cage Match(?), United Empire on rules and internet discourse, the Hybrid nature of NEVER, Tsuji St Elmo, Goto v Finlay and the risky business that is Shota back on top. What is New Japan thinking? The Stiff Bois try to figure that out.

The Stiff Bois get to do what they love the most: preview a big show (and a nice looking Jnr show) by exploring smellness, throwing on their conspiracy caps, and debating as many logical outcomes and directions they can see. Should we expect David Finlay? Where to for Shota? How many feuds can EVIL manage? Is there a way forward for United Empire as currently positioned? Should we want more for ELP?

Plus, the lads discuss the fall out to their Observer chat last week and try to offer some clarity, and they lament the take off of the Jet from NJPW.

A packed show to get you ready for a big weekend of New Japan Pro Wrestling.

The Bois are back to their old tricks, going looking for the peculiar angles to what was a very rich New Japan Cup. They talk the Cup as a whole, why the pick ems being predictable is a good thing, how the direction is clear in ways that are exciting, why Taichi can’t win, why Yuya can’t lose, and why the old guard is still so valuable.

Then it’s on to the Cup final and a deep discussion into the character parallels between the two men, the key distinction at the genesis which may determine their directions, and why so many still struggle with talk about these type of characters in pro wrestling; as the Stiff Bois proudly define what they think Observing Wrestling is.

The Bois have endured Tropical Cyclone Alfred, and somehow amidst the chaos seen the entire New Japan Cup. The March Smellness prediction special was pretty close to foretelling the entire Cup, and as such has done a good job of covering the lads in their absence, but now as the Final is upon us, they are jumping on the record a Final preview.

The lads talk the ever evolving NJPW match construction template and what it could mean for the Final, before diving into Finlay and Shota's paths to the finals; both in the tourney and beyond. Then, the speculation begins for what may happen in the and around the match; as the angle alert sounds loud and clear.

With a slower week in NJPW, with only a few shows on the Road to New Begining (which will be discussed in our big New Begining Preview next week), the Stiff bois have decided to create a Primer for the 2024 Golden Stiffies; outlining the categories, possible nominees and process for voting on the WWS annual award show.

This episode is one part refresher of the year that was, one part primer for a host of characters heading into 2025 and one part experimental dialogue with our Stiffies; all wrapped in a shameless promotion of the merits of joining the Stiff Club.

The Stiff Bois are back from Tokyo and have a lot of things to cover.

In a different kind of episode the lads spend the first 1 hour and 20 minutes covering the many shows they attended in the lead up to the Dome (chatting All Japan, Big Japan, NOAH, Impact haha, DDT and TJPW), thank the many generous Stiffies they met, then spend and hour breaking down every match of Wrestle Kingdom from a live experience, spend time trying to explore the curious case of Shota Umino and thier hopes for his year ahead, talk the vibes of Wrestle Dynasty, another hour on the masterpiece that was Gabe v Kenny and main event the show with a spirited defense of Chris Charlton.

A massive, reflective, conversational show, that is a little different to our usual fair (dont worry, previews and reviews of New Beginning tour will commence next week) but one that hopefully conveys the joy of Puro and the gratitude we have for all our listeners and Stiff Club members.
