Wrestling Omakase
Wrestling OmakaseOmakase means, literally, "I'll leave it up to you". It's a term primarily used in modern Japanese in sushi restaurants, where you allow the chef to prepare their own personal favorites, leaving your meal completely in their hands. Wrestling Omakase, therefore, is a show where we place each episode into the hands of one or two passionate fans, from all across the wrestling spectrum. Our regular ho... more

- Hipster 101
A wrestling podcast with poor audio. Sometimes it is even on the end of not listenable. The host is very pompous with his opinions often saying things like "if you don't like this, then you're an idiot." This is not a puro podcast I would recommend.

Mediocre host, poor sound and overall quality.
The commentary comes off as self congratulatory and low effort.
Apple Podcasts1Cast HeadUnited States5 years ago - Pure Puro (and sometimes anime)
Love the show, my Japanese wrestling knowledge is a little limited to one promotion though, so my only wish is that John would possibly do a primer on how to get into DDT, Stardom, TJPW etc (either for someone trying to just get in them or for someone looking for what’s worth diving into the archives for!). Also had to write a review cause lol half of them are being mad at John cause they have opinions
Apple Podcasts5PodchatsUnited States6 years ago - MJF rules!
Why doesn’t John like MJF!!! MJF has more charisma than your five star faves!!!!!
Apple Podcasts1tehcidUnited States7 years ago - Great intro to new wrestling!!
One of my favorite podcasts around. John is great to listen to. An amazing listen to follow along with NJPW, DDT, and other Japanese promotions. Also a great way to get into those promotions or even historical stuff like early NOAH, Chikara, CZW, and ROH.
