Kokeshi

Okay.

We got Kokeshi's in the middle of the ring.

Guys are getting hit with chairs in the middle of the ring, outside of the ring.

Crowd work.

Yes, maybe like artesian handcrafted soy sauce dishes and bowls and chopsticks and things from the Asian culture.

Kokeshi dolls or just like a whole...

Vibe.

Right.

So I got that game.

I got some other small little gifts, but my wife got me a Kokeshi doll and I've always wanted a Kokeshi doll, not like a cheap tourist doll that you get in Shinjuku or something, not like a, like a gift store Kokeshi doll, but, but a real Kokeshi doll.

and if you don't know what a kokeshi doll is it's a little wooden doll there's really old style ones which they basically look like you you smooth it out a cylinder of wood just like a wooden cylinder and then you paint something on it and the top has like it's like a wooden ball so it's a head and you paint the head on it they make them for kids and they make them for for men for women and Some of them look like they have a kimono on, but most of the time it's like flowers or patterns.

It just depends on what you get, usually floral patterns or something like that.

They were used as children's toys.

They originated in Honshu, northern Honshu, Japan, made of wood and painted with the things I just explained.

So I've always liked Kokeshi dolls.

My wife got me one.

Now this is like a SparkNotes Maki match.

It only goes about 3 minutes and 11 seconds, but we get multiple Kokeshi headbutts, we get Maki flipping the bird, and then she gets a submission victory with the Ito Deluxe.

Maki was certainly more accustomed to US audiences at this point.

She'd spent a lot of time in GCW, teaming with Nick Gage already, so you could really see her character shifting a little bit.
