TJPW Rewind - Vol. 2: HYPE!

The original HYPE! is a very special show, regarded by many TJPW fans as a cult favorite. While yes, it does carry a fair bit of Hyper Misao insanity in the form of time travel and alternate dimensions, at its core it’s an emotional story about living in the present told through the eyes of Mahiro Kiryu. On today’s bonus episode, Andy rewinds back to May 2023 to review this classic show which spawned 3 sequels, the latest of which arrives later this year. Whether it’s your 1st experience with HYPE! or your 15th, join us as we relive Hyper Misao’s Produce Show - HYPE!     TIMESTAMPS:   (00:00) Start (00:22) Intro (01:50) A Brief Intro to HYPE!

Ep 39 | Stand Alone ’26 Review, HYPE! 4 Announced

This week on the pod, Andy catches up on a busy week of TJPW news and shows. We start with the exciting announcement of HYPE! 4, the latest updates for Summer Sun Princess ‘26, and the possible arrival of a new mascot (which may see Arisu pulling double duty as a bear?). Then we review Stand Alone ’26, including the major title matches, new challengers, and where things landed with the Ironman Title coming out of the show. We also look ahead to Next Door in Yokohama and close with a check-in on Yamashita in EVE, Nakajima in MLW, and six TJPW wrestlers in DDT. Plenty to cover, very little of it normal. So, a pretty standard week in TJPW.   TIMESTAMPS: (00:00) Start (01:15) Intro (06:16) HYPE! 4 Announced, Summer Sun Princess Update & A New Mascot?
