SETUP Thailand Double Cross Update #7

Hello everyone.

 

There have been several developments since last posting regarding the SETUP Thailand Double Cross show.  The event takes place on Saturday, March 23rd at The Circus Studio beginning at 6:30pm.

 

First off, the voice of Singapore Pro Wrestling, Darren Chua, will be at this coming Saturday's show in one of the featured matches.  Darren is one of this blogger's favorite wrestling voices in all of Southeast Asia.

 

Second......Jonathan Johnson took part in a ChocoPro show this past weekend in Japan.  He teamed up with Masa Takanashi in a tag match against Chris Brookes and Munetatsu Nakamura.  This blogger is always amazed at the small area the wrestlers perform in.  However, the show was enjoyable.  Please check out the following link for the show.

Also, in the past few days, Mr. Suchart wrestled Kru Pol on a television show that was televised in Bangkok.  Any time there is something televised live for people to see, that is great for any promotion.  Here is the link regarding the match.  The show is about 65 minutes long (the wrestling match is around 30 minutes into the segment).

Finally, I'm not sure whether to report this or not since it hasn't yet been posted on the SETUP Thailand Facebook page.

 

However, there is a new SETUP Thailand All Asia Women's Champion.  Raku defeated Pom Harajuku at the TJPW Grand Princess 25 on Sunday at the Ota City General Gymnasium in Tokyo.  I believe that Raku will face the winner of the Alexis Lee-Matcha match that is this coming Saturday.  That will happen at a future date (edited).  Since there will be an update or two before Saturday, we will let you know the opponent in the future.

 

Thanks again everyone for reading the long post.  Tickets are still available.  Please visit the SETUP Thailand Pro Wrestling Facebook page for more info.

SETUP All Asia Women's Championship

Hello everyone.

 

My apologies for not mentioning this earlier (and to the two ladies involved).

 

That being said, there will be a title match for the SETUP All Women's Championship.  The date is Sunday, March 16th in Tokyo, Japan.  The venue is the Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium.

 

Raku will take on the champion, Pom Harajuku with the winner of the match defending the belt the following week at the EP21: Double Cross show.  For those who are interested, the match will be on Wrestle Universe.  Thank you. 

SETUP Thailand: EP21 - Double Cross Update #4

Hello everyone.

 

A "major" match has just been added for SETUP Thailand's show, EP21; Double Cross.  The event will take place at The Circus Studio, G Village, Bangkok on Saturday, March 22nd beginning at 6:30pm.

 

SETUP Thailand's Matcha, arguably the top female wrestler in Thailand, will face SPW's Alexis Lee in one terrific match!  The winner of the 20 minute time limit battle will get a future shot at the SETUP All Asia Women's Championship.  The title is currently held by Pom Harajuku.

 

Both women have held titles in their respective countries.  Matcha was the first winner of the SETUP All Asia Women's belt and held the title for nearly a year (315 days).  She lost to the current champion but is stepping up her game for another opportunity at this title sometime in the near future.

 

Alexis Lee is one amazing woman!  In her career, she has won four different titles and is currently the CWE Vixen's Champion!  She has held this title for 2445 days as of this post and has held it proudly against numerous opponents. Her title won't be on the line in this match. 

 

This match is definitely main event material.  The two wrestlers have faced each other one other time to my knowledge.  It happened back in June 2022 when Matcha won at SETUP's EP6 show.  At the time, both promotions, along with the rest of pro wrestling worldwide, were recovering from the Covid-19 epidemic.  The statement here is not to make excuses, but factual.  The situation for both wrestlers, and promotions, is a better one today!
