DTC VI: Versatile Rockstar Conductor Maestro

Who Is The Second Cutest In The World? KIKYO-CHAN!
This will be the first time that I dive into a solo focused episode of Dynamic Thunder Connection today as I'm doing a blog on Kikyo Furusawa. I am probably the most late to this party as I have seen many and I mean, MANY articles on Kikyo Furusawa since her rise of popularity amongst the current crop of STARDOM rookies. I'll be honest, I have hesitated / debating on whether I should do this. The system that I have for the DTC is that I feature both Ema Maishima and Kikyo Furusawa in the same article/blog, and now I'm focusing on Ms. Grab Your Ankle. I'm nowhere near prepared, and Shakira said, "Her hips don't lie." My hips couldn't pass a polygraph test.

The Start


Both Ema Maishima and Kikyo Furusawa debuted as professional wrestlers on May 21st of last year. (I also covered their first matches on DTC 0. I had to do a cheap plug somehow.) Maishima's first opponent was AZM, who was the NJPW STRONG Women's Champion at the time. Furusawa's first opponent was Hanan, who was a co-holder of the Goddesses Of Stardom Champions with Saya Iida. Both women were received well with the praise specifically on Furusawa herself. The fight with Hanan allowed her to stand out with her technical wrestling skilled being on display. With also the fact that she was able to do it in such a short time frame. 

Some people saw the potential from that debut and it was really only up from there. Her stock rose from that debut with big matches with the likes of Saori Anou, Rina, Starlight Kid and even faced the World Of Stardom Champion Saya Kamitani. Oh. And personally, I like her three singles matches with Ema Maishima on those three NEW BLOOD shows in a row. Relax... The plugs will come later on. What really cement the fact that she is a future star of her generation was on Jan 31, 2026 in Korakuen Hall. Furusawa was scheduled to team up with Mi Vida Loca as a way to fill in the spot for the current injured Bozilla in a 10 woman tag against E neXus V. However, plans had gone onto an unexpected change.

Earlier in the show, Former IWGP Women's Champion Sareee was scheduled to face Lady C. However, due to an illness Lady C suffered, she needed to have a replace. So Kikyo Furusawa replaced Lady C which turned that 10 woman tag she was meant to be into a Gauntlet Match. And it also meant that she was facing Sareee. She did so well that she competed at Sareee's 15th Anniversary show in a 10 Minute Time Limit Draw against SEAdLINNNG rookie, Selene Misora. There is one person that has changed Kikyo's personality in an unexpected fashion.

Maki Itoh - STARDOM Unorthodox Signing


One of Bushiroad's most successful signings in recent years is the signing of Maki Itoh. Maki Itoh is mostly for her time in TJPW, GCW and made few appearances for AEW, which is where she gained popularity overseas. The former Idol has made a significant tone shift to everything on the roster since she joined and only two people really are a sign of that shift. Aya Sakura was the person that Itoh feuded with first in STARDOM and it created the now destroyed, Kawaii Of Kawaii Championship. Sakura has been a really fun wrestler to watch, but ever since the feud with Maki, she really got an eccentric personality that much with what she learned.

Itoh just recruited Kikyo Furusawa into her STARDOM version of Itoh Respect Army, which the name got changed to Itoh Respect Gundan as a result of the current war in the Middle East. They have been teaming up with each other and have been doing quite well. Furusawa has gotten more eccentric and more confident in her personality under the wing of Maki Itoh as The Second Cutest In The World. (Her nickname/moniker is Submission Blast.) These two would face off against each other in the First Round of the Cinderella Tournament, which was the best First Round match for me personally. These two are peas that we didn't know we needed in the pot.

Current Proceedings


Right now, Kikyo Furusawa will face Akira Kurogane in the Semi Finals of the Rookie Of Stardom tournament. The winner will receive a trophy as well as a shot at Ranna Yagami's Future Of Stardom Championship which is most likely at All Star Grand Queendom. I have already mentioned in my blog preview that I am hoping for an Ema Maishima and Kikyo Furusawa to get to the finals, but a man can dream. Aim High Furusawa!

ZERO x Mihaawk: Tomoka Inaba - Exploring New Things

Image
The world of pro wrestling has a loads of sections to search through. Much like any long running sport or franchise, there are other sorts of niches within the niche itself. This is the same feeling I had when I discovered the world of 女子プロレス (Women's Pro Wrestling). This will probably shorter than the first installment of the blog. More of the fact that I don't intend to keep you for longer than the articles I did for SickosClub.com and that I'm tired as flagrant and illiterate dumbass. And there are new match descriptions that I have in the vault that I might release for the blog later on. My knowledge in the world of Japanese women's wrestling is... very underwhelming to be honest and it gets more underwhelming that I half-assed my commitment until now. I discovered STARDOM in 2022 when I saw highlights of two specific matches: Tam Nakano vs Giulia from Stardom 10th Anniversary ~Hinamatsuri All-Star Dream Cinderella~ and Utami Hayashishita vs. Syuri from Stardom Tok...

Cinderella Swansong

SOOOOOOOOOOO... I was actually planning do something that is WWE related, but I decided to stop it, track back and talk about STARDOM. I have talked about STARDOM multiples on SickosClub.com before particularly on Ema Maishima and Kikyo Furusawa in 4 published articles while I have another two pieces in my own archive to use just in case. However, this is 2nd time I'm talking about something that is related to STARDOM on this page. You know, my own haven of some sort. The last time I talked about something that it was related to World Wonder Ring Stardom was when I was making the Tomoka Inaba which is available now and currently the most viewed blog on my Field Journey page so far. Thank you for that anyway. And for that I am going to feature people alongside the wrestler's name I'm gonna ramble so you all can see my knowledge or lack thereof and you can follow them online if you want. Today, I'm going through every single participant in this Cinderella Tournament and ...

Saori Anou: Whom I Once Feared, Now I Follow

Image
[ZERO X Mihaawk Production] I have written about many wrestlers in this series on my blog. Some were fun and some were a lot more unorthodox. Which is always the thing you'd come to expect from myself. But seriously, doing 13 matches for the Hazuki one was absolutely diabolical. Maybe I should have cut some of those bouts from that list.  Credit: Etsuo Hara Today is a blog focused on someone that I didn't think about surprisingly enough. Someone who have a mentioned multiple times in a way that is funny to re-explain. I decided to reach out to the usual partner of the blog, Mihaawk and I was provided with some premium content. Someone who once scared me to the point of having a nightmare about her. [I do implore you to read her section on the Cinderella Tournament blog to get the context.] And a woman who is great and elegant behind her motionless and psychotic stare. And her name... is Saori Anou. SAORI ANOU - ICE ASSASSIN DIFFICULTY Credit: Etsuo Hara Age: 35 Years Old  Pr...
