They had Solie, Humperdink and De George in a couple of combinations. This was ringing a bell, so I did a bit of searching - Superstars was originally 'Superstars of Wrestling', but they lost a court case to an independent wrestling promoter who owned the term. So it was probably connected to that. I can't find anything about it, but I could have sworn that WWF/E had a trademark on the term 'superstar' for a while - is this ringing a bell for anyone else? It's entirely possible I'm confusing it with DC and Marvel co-owning the trademark for 'superhero'.

Never knew that such a match even existed. Although the cynic in me wonders if they booked an iron man match due to the late 1992/early 93 roster being depleted as fuck and it filled out more time in a house show?
Stylin_and_Profilin Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 Had this on an old hard drive which i found a few months ago so decided to upload it. Don't know the proper term for it as it's not a televised event but not a bog standard house show either, some where in the middle as it's got the usual TV production feel to it and full commentary. Warrior is champ so based on that i'd loosely date it somewhere between mid-1990 to very early 1991.
King Pitcos Posted February 24, 2020 Posted February 24, 2020 It's from their MSG Network show, September 1990. Ax looks old as fuck.

KingofSports Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 Kana. Food confusion...things like vinegar. Shepherds Pie reaction 'Ah, meato', after thinking it was a dessert.. Starts around the 2 minute-mark.

TildeGuy~! Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Due to the virus practically cancelling all wrestling shows in Japan for the next month, Stardom Live streamed a show last night in an empty Korakuen Hall.
The King Of Swing Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Was a decent enough show considering the circumstances. Momoe Nakanishi and Mima Shimoda showing up was a nice surprise. Arisa Vs Tora was pulled due to Arisa being either injured or ill.
KingofSports Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Momoe hardly looks any different 15+ years on.
