Episode 21 - Puro Wrestlers in the UK (II): Straight Off The Top Of My Skydome

NOTE: Daniel's sound is fairly fucked up for the first half of this. Still, at least he's audible. After a Christmas hiatus and many group counselling sessions after the general election, the guys are back with the concluding part of their look at Japanese wrestlers in the UK. This episode moves from the World of Sport era into the 21st century, as David, Daniel and Statto rake over Mitsuharu Misawa's grand tour of Britain (Carluke and Coventry), agree that what seemed cutting-edge in 2015 might have lost its lustre in 2020 - Ed Miliband, for example - and try to wring a few drops more juice from the shaft of the "Is BritWres dead?" debate. Apologies for the length of time it's taken between Parts 1 and 2, Alex Shane paid the guy delivering our new mics not to show up. Matches: Mitsuharu Misawa, Yoshinari Ogawa and Tiger Emperor vs. Doug Williams, 2 Cold Scorpio and James Tighe (TWC, 19 March 2005) Kyle O’Reilly vs. KUSHIDA (RevPro, 2 October 2015) Kay Lee Ray vs. Emi Sakura (Pro Wrestling EVE, 13 October 2018)
