Rob and Matt are back once again to talk about perhaps one of the best top-to-bottom shows Marigold have put on in their Spring Victory Series Korakuen Hall show!
They chat being blown away by Senka Akatsaki, Bozilla attempting actual murder at the press conference, Takumi Iroha trying to commit actual murder on Seri Yamaoka, Nagisa Tachibana and Rea Seto putting on two excellent performances, people repeatedly turning down title matches, the most impassioned post-match promos of all time and so much more!
