Episode 2: Recent worries and stuff

November 27, 2024

We are now in the middle of the World Tag League. At times like this when we have matches day after day, it makes me feel like a real pro-wrestler. I wake up in the morning, train, go to the venue, wrestle, come home, do laundry, and the day ends, it makes for boring content for a diary... 

Until the Tag League is over, I'm trying to give 120% by quitting alcohol and eating clean (I'm still gaining weight), but before the Tag League, I came across a really delicious whiskey. I still have that whiskey at home, unopened, but I'll hold off until I win the Tag League and toast with Zack! Do you know this distillery? 

Lagavulin 16 years 

I like strong Scottish whiskeys, and I used to drink Laphroaig and Bowmore, but when I came across Lagavulin at a steakhouse, I fell in love with it. Every day when I get home, it's sitting on the table, so every time I see it, I feel motivated to do my best. 

Changing the subject, at the match venue, President Tanahashi gave me some advice: "You’re too kind, Oiwa, so you don't have to be so kind in the ring” those words are bothering me. What does he mean by “kind in the ring?” I've been thinking about it for a few days. I don’t think he means my opponents, because I really lay into them with the purpose of crushing their bodies with all my might. I don’t think I give too many opportunities to my team mates either. 

I don't have the answer yet, but I'm going to wrestle my match today to find the answer.
