SETUP Thailand Bangkok Navigation Update #11

Hello everyone!

 

There is a disclaimer that this blogger should post in every wrestling show.

 

The disclaimer is that a wrestling show is subject to change regarding a wrestling card.  This happened with this fan last Saturday night while attending a NJPW wrestling show live and it's happening with the upcoming SETUP show this coming Saturday night.

 

Originally, the singles number one contender match for the IWA Japan World Heavyweight Championship was supposed to be between Shota and Monomoth.  However, it is now a Triple Threat "Decision" Match between Shota, Monomoth and the MYPW SEA Champion, Shivam.

 

I'm not going into the details as to why this match was changed.  In the future, maybe this fan will discuss it.  For the fans who read my blog, please check the SETUP Thailand Pro Wrestling Facebook page, You Tube or any other social media platform as to the decision.

 

In the meantime, Bangkok Navigation, as this fan knows will still be on Saturday night at The Circus Studio beginning at 6:30pm.  Have a good day everyone!

SETUP Thailand Bangkok Navigation Update #8

Hello everyone!

 

The upcoming post will be about two important singles matches that haven't been covered.  This may be a little long, but please be patient.  

 

Before sharing it, there's one important clarification regarding the blogger's last post on Steve The Teacher.

 

Per several sources, and since I wasn't there for the show, something important was not mentioned about the SETUP Rumble.  Mikey Wild was officially not a part of the match which changes the complexion of what happened that day.  There were other things that happened in the Rumble, but that is for another time.

 

The Steve The Teacher-Mikey Wild match next Saturday is definitely one that wrestling fans at The Circus Studio need to see!  

 

This blogger stresses that what is posted here on the blog IS factual as much as possible.  I don't do this to be a Dave Meltzer nor the dirt sheets that you see on social media.  Not into that!

 

Thank you to the sources who messaged me regarding this.  There is nothing wrong with messaging when something written needs correcting!  It's not taken as criticism but a learning experience.  Definitely, am not and never will be a know it all!  Most important, it's appreciated here!  Thank you as always.

 

Moving forward, SETUP Thailand and wrestling fans should really be excited about the upcoming show.  Besides Paksa vs. Naomichi Marafuji, Kevin Weng vs. Daz Black and Steve The Teacher vs. Mikey Wild, there are these two singles matches.

 

Masa Takanashi vs. Jonathan Johnson

Shota vs. Monomoth

 

Masa Takanashi has been busy wrestling in Japan for various promotions since August both in singles and tag team action.  He was last in a SETUP ring at the 30th anniversary show when the Calamari Drunken Kings (w/Chris Brookes) lost the IWA SETUP Tag Team Title in a 3-way match.

 

Jonathan Johnson had a great 2024.  He held the SETUP Thailand Openweight Championship for 315 days, longer than any wrestler on record.  In his last match, he lost in controversial fashion.  Please check You Tube on what happened.  You can say in the case of both wrestlers here, both are looking to get back into the win column as soon as next Saturday.

 

In the other singles match, Shota is a wrestler that this blogger believes is exciting to watch from some video.  He wrestles for several promotions in Japan.  I don't recall if he's wrestled in Thailand before, but remember him at a Vietnam Pro Wrestling show last May.  Fans there were impressed with his performance.

 

What can this blogger say about Monomoth!  In 2024, Monomoth, not only wrestled before sell out crowds at The Circus Studio, but also in the Philippines, Japan and in America with the GCW Promotion at a Philadelphia show.  One can say that this singles match will be exciting to watch as well.
