Episode 5: Christmas in Japan

 

December 28, 2024 

Hello everyone, how was your Christmas? I hope you had a fun time!  

 
Christmas isn't a big holiday in Japan, but in Italy, everything stops on this day and families gather together for big parties. 
 
Last year was a bit tough for me because I was alone, but this year was different! As some of you may already know, my mom and my younger brother Yutaka came to Japan recently to watch my matches! They came to Korakuen Hall, and Yutaka was so happy to be greeted by all the fans. He said, "I'm more popular than Francesco!" (lol). 

 

However, on the second day, the match they wanted to see was cancelled due to the WarDogs, and they looked very disappointed. They are also scheduled to come to the Tokyo Dome, so I might get in trouble again if I don't give it my all! 

 
For Christmas, I went to a ryokan near Sakudaira Station in Nagano Prefecture. The snow scenery was beautiful and it was a wonderful place. Sometimes it's good to get away from busy places like Tokyo and refresh your mind in a quiet place like this. Unfortunately, my mother and my brother Yutaka came to Japan recently to watch me wrestle, not relax! 

Do you all have a favorite place to relax? Also, I'm really excited about my next match! 

  

My next match will be at Wrestle Kingdom, my first TLC (Tables, Ladders, Chairs) match. It's my first time in this type of match, so I can't wait to get in the ring! 

  

By the way, I also had a lot of fun in my match in China. I'll share some photos from my trip, so I hope you enjoy them!

With that, Arrivederci!
