The new year always brings a LOT to discuss in japanese pro-wrestling and with Pro Wrestling NOAH choosing January 1^st as the date of their big Budokan show there's more to discuss than ever: Muto vs. Nakamura, Kiyomiya vs. Kenoh, Jake Lee debuting, the puzzling placement of the tag title matches and what does the future hold for NOAH after Muto? But first, STRIGGA and Dylan address the big title change from Syuri to Giulia in Stardom as well as the DDT & GLEAT shows from Tokyo Dome City Hall and New Year's Eve Pro-Wrestling from Korakuen. The final topic of the show are the first two AJPW shows of the new year that saw Kento Miyahara and Takuya Nomura in prominent positions as well as many puzzling elements such as the All Asia Tag Team Title match and a Voodoo Murder breakup tease.

Tournament season and no end! On this episode STRIGGA & Dylan discuss NOAH's N-1 Victory in depth in its entirety: Kaito Kiyomiya winning and possibly reclaiming his spot as the ace, Hideki MVP, Great Muta's business for NOAH, Nakajima/Okada and of course all performers and best matches. On top of that the Eastern Lariat crew compares the N-1 with New Japan's G1 Climax. Stardom's tournament however is still going on so STRIGGA & Dylan make predictions on who's going to advance, name best matches and their top performers.

The Eastern Lariat returns with a new episode highlighting the final of Pro Wrestling NOAH's N-1 Victory tournament from Osaka and the built towards their Sumo Hall show at the beginning of November. STRIGG A & Dylan discuss all the matches, the production of the show, potential feuds and stories. At the beginning of the show though the spotlight is on Dragon Lee and his firing from CMLL as well as New Japan announcing New Year Dash.
