Welcome to Puroresu Gate, a weekly feature where we review attendance figures of Puroresu and Joshi promotions in the most well-known venues in Japan.
This week, we are looking at the 1,800-seat Tokyo Korakuen Hall. Known as the MECCA of Japanese Pro Wrestling, this venue is used by every Puroresu and Joshi promotion and is considered sacred ground for fans and wrestlers alike.
GLEAT is quickly becoming one of the more exciting independent promotions in Japan. Taking its inspirations from the defunct Wrestle-1 and UWFi promotions, the promotion is developing a loyal following. Their most recent show at Korakuen Hall is available to watch free on YouTube and was headlined by El Lindaman defending his G-REX Championship against NJPW star DOUKI.
Stardom held yet another sold-out event at Korakuen Hall this week for the ninth day of their 5 Star Grand Prix tournament. In an event filled to the brim with AMAZING Joshi Wrestling, Giulia faced off against Starlight Kid in an epic encounter to close out the show.
