It's the first of a double bill of Spotlights this week as we try to cover the mad volume of big time wrestling that we've been hit with since New Year. And with Benno away and as its Tokyo Dome season, I am joined by the Empress of wrestling podcasting and Karen Peterson!

Join us as we talk both Wrestle Kingdom 19 and Wrestle Dynasty where the highs are very high and by God, the lows are very, very low. We chat Kidd vs Omega, Takeshita's weekend, the issues that New Japan curently face, THAT double main event from Day One, Karen's highlights of the whole Japanese wrestling week and much, much more!

Enjoy

JP

(Benno & Matty will be back with a second recorded show late on Tuesday, reviewing the Raw on Netflix debut)
