Someone messaged me recently, telling me they missed my articles in @Inside_TheRopes mag. It was mint to read that. I took a break due to health issues, but yeah, I should consider getting my pens out again.
Anyway, here's a years worth of my articles about wrestling merchandise.

The banzuke is up for the September Basho and there are so many thoughts and comments we've been mulling over regarding how it's all turned out.

Halfway through the basho so it's time to talk about the heavy hitters and those who have bowed us thus far. We also discuss our randomly assigned rikishi - are they a blessing or a curse?

Check out @BBGWrestling on Spotify to hear it now.

The new Basho is underway and we have a show of truly rikishi proportions. Not only do we cover the latest news and look ahead at the new Basho, but @emmajanemint and @stoghz fill @grapplearcade in on their trip to Tokyo to see the sumo live!

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

Well the banzuke is up. Lots of interesting shifts. Plenty of rikishi hungry to climb to that top spot 👀

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

Well after so much debate and possible contenders, Kiribayama is our new Ozeki.

And with a name change too? Will he go the way of Mitakeumi and only make it a year or climb to the heights of Yokozuna?

And will there be more promotions to come? 👀

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

The unveiling of Kiribayama's portrait to mark his recent Basho win.

A very cool experience and you've gotta love the little dramatic theme they accompany it with.

[Matthew Stogdon @stoghz]

Over the course of my holiday I have gone out of my way to visit three of the four sumo wrestling arenas: the Aichi Prefectural Gymnasium, the Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium and the Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo.

Culminating in today's matches, which was a truly fantastic experience.

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

It's day one of the Natsu Basho AND WE'RE HERE!! As such there won't be any episodes this month.

@stoghz @emmajanemint @grapplearcade

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

The final sumo drop for this basho and it's a mammoth 2 hour special, as we look at the ups and downs, as well as our predictions going forward.

4 days left to back the most anticipated wrestling game in ages.
So close to the 50k mark.
I've backed it for the PS.
My bro has for Xbox.
Available for Steam & Switch.
Get it backed if you want a N64 themed wrestling game with characters from @HalHaneyArt 😲 & a great team 😉

[Emma-Jane (EJ) @emmajanemint]

It has truly been a bizarre basho, that's for sure 🤪 the lack of both yokozuna and ozeki, alone! We round up the first 9 days of the May tournament in the latest episode 👇 #sumo #podcast

[Sumo Drop @SumoDropPod]

No ozeki, no yokuozuna, and a maegashira 5 undefeated? It's been one unusual basho, so be sure to check out our latest episode for all the latest sumo wrestling news and views.
