The 10th annual Tokyo Princess Cup tournament is over, momentous occasion for a lot of reasons, and a genuinely great performance in the final. Share your thoughts here.
Do you watch TJPW? Why or why not?
Who did you hope was going to win? Who did you expect was going to?
It is, and I agree.
I think they debuted this design last year, actually. It used to be an actual cup, before then.
ETA: yep, that's it.
Yeah that's great. So much better than their last trophy too.
Also, and I may be reading too much into it, it's fitting that a trophy won by those who are seen as having potential to carry the company forward has a stalling carry as the central focus.
It's a great visual metaphor for teamwork if you look at it from the shoot side and an equally good one for power if you look at it from a keyfabe perspective.
