    Before we get to August’s rewind and rewatch, Case and Mike talk about Dragongate’s fun Sunday in Fukuoka with the best 3 minute match of the year, IWRG uploads and Shingo Takagi’s 20th Anniversary Show’s X.

    From there it’s time to continue to celebrate the Dragon System’s 25th Anniversary with Rewind and Rewatch. This month, Open The Voice Gate discusses 2002 and 2003 as it relates to the lead up to the Japanese landing of Toryumon X, the final brand of the Toryumon Era. Case and Mike follow the trials and tribulations through different aces, appearances on weird Mutoh All Japan spinoffs, and everything until August 22, 2003, the first ever Japanese Toryumon X show, of which Case and Michael review to close out the very fun episode!
