Notes
>As expected, it was a big month for New Japan thanks to their biggest tour of the year. However, I think the final numbers of the tournament are kind of underwhelming as the whole tournament sold just merely 5000 more tickets than last year and it's far from the heights they reached in their most recent golden era. New Japan is getting back on their feet, but they still have a long way to go to get where they were before the pandemic.
>None of these promotions are covered in the monthly updates but Kyushu Pro, Gleat and Actwres Girlz had a really good month. Kyushu Pro had one of the biggest shows of the year, and outside Tokyo no less. Gleat sold over 2000 tickets for their show at Sumo Hall, which I think was their biggest show ever. Meanwhile, AWG sold over 1000 tickets for their big show at Korakuen Hall, managing to become just the third joshi promotion to break that ceiling at the venue this year (the other two being Stardom, which has done it several times, and TJPW, which only did it once)
