NJPW President, Hiroshi Tanahashi, addressed the ten-point plan for the future of NJPW:

Hiroshi Tanahashi’s 10-Point Plan

1. Talent discovery and development - Young talent should wrestle in more high-level spots - Wrestlers still need to earn their spots in tournaments like the G1. - NJPW wants the best wrestlers in their early 20s in Japan

2. Elevating the value of title belts - It is important to clarify the role and concept of each title - STRONG titles will be defended on USA shows only going forward - The company acknowledges that the tag titles are about to be combined at Dominion… “the process may take time.” - The company acknowledges that 13 titles may be challenging to follow. - This process may take time, 12-18 months.

3. Reducing/eliminating outside interference - They haven’t determined concrete penalties, but interference will be limited - A lot of talk and questions about whether House of Torture is the reason for this goal - The company acknowledges the fans' frustrations regarding House of Torture - The company concedes that pro wrestling is unique when it comes to wrestlers turning things in their favor any way they can.

4. Increasing the prominence and status of NJPW Hontai - Tanahashi wants Hontai to be a desired unit for young wrestlers or wrestlers returning from excursions.

5. Strengthening ties with STARDOM - STARDOM will be owned by NJPW as of the end of June. - Look for improved operational efficiency, scheduling, crossover events, and STARDOM on NJPW events soon.

6. Strengthening ties with AEW - NJPW is happy with its relationship with AEW. - “There is the perception that NJPW is treated as a sub-brand or is looked down on by AEW. Some of that perception of NJPW being behind comes from the current economics. But the truth of the matter is AEW’s strengths and NJPW’s strengths are different. From the development of talent from scratch to a historical and traditional perspective, there’s a lot NJPW can offer that AEW cannot. So there’s a lot that we can do together and while much of it isn’t something we can discuss right now, there’s a lot we will do. However, the idea that NJPW is the inferior partner is not correct. We are absolutely on an even footing, and that’s something we’ll prove soon.”

7. Improving the live fan experience - Ideas: different prices, different pricing tiers, female-only seating sections, special food menus, and number of people in a box.

8. Improving NJPW World - Apologies for the clunky transition - Archives should be complete by the end of the year - Live viewing has been fixed/improved

9. Improved treatment of personal information - Apologies for getting that USB drive stolen/lost - Plans are in place to keep data safe going forward

10. NJPW sponsorships - Thank you to sponsors. The full English language recap can be found at njpw1972.com

Watched Mr. President last night (SPOILERS FOR S2E2 of Smiling Friends)

It was... alright?

I'm surprised they leaned so hard on the gross-out humor angle, especially considering the show at large wasn't really majorly about jokes like that- they do have some stuff, like the multiple times characters vomit or Charlie's realistic explosion of blood in the first Christmas episode, but I was just kinda sketched out by all the pants-pooping jokes and Jimble just being covered in obvious food slop.

I feel like Mr. Frog's presidential campaign wasn't focused on enough; if we got more of him going through huge gaffes like his election PSA, it'd be way funnier to see Jimble miserably losing to him, and more Mr. Frog is appreciated.

All the same, though, the stuff with the worm media cult for Mr. Frog was really funny, especially how they immediately switched sides after finding out frogs eat worms, and how skewed the debate was. I also really thought the ending where they doxxed Glep was hysterical, especially because Glep explains himself and they just immediately forgive him.

Overall, 7/10. Probably won't revisit as much but still fairly solid.
