duplicate information

For each day, do we really need a listing under "Event" and "Results"? They present the same information, except for "Results" including the time of the match. I suggest removing the "Event" section for each day. Elsquared (talk) 22:50, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reception.

Added tag to request reception section.

Missing Information

This article does not talk about how event was held in notoriously reclusive nation of North Korea, which does not normally let outsiders in, and especially does not like Americans very much. Once, many moons ago, I talked to a South Korean gentleman who had visited Pyongyang for a couple of days as part of the Protestant relief group he was a member of. He mentioned there was always a minder from the secret police following him and the other relief workers around at all times. His interactions with ordinary North Koreans were very carefully monitored with the minder always writing down the names of the people he had spoken to. And that was how someone from the "Yankee colony" as North Korean propaganda calls South Korea was treated. The North Koreans never call South Korea South Korea; it is always the "Yankee colony" as according to them North Korea is the one, true Korean state. North Korea has a very paranoid government that to put it mildly promotes a very xenophobic worldview. Anyone who wants a idea of just how xenophobic the North Korean government really this, please read this link A Nation of Racist Dwarfs Kim Jong-il’s regime is even weirder and more despicable than you thought. (It's from 2010, hence the reference to the now departed "Dear Leader"). Which begs the question; how did a professional wrestling event featuring wrestlers from the two nations that North Korea vilifies the most, namely Japan and the United States ever got held in Pyongyang. There must be a backstory as how permission for this event was granted, which would be most interesting and informative. It is not everyday that American professional wrestlers get to hold a show in Pyongyang.--A.S. Brown (talk) 08:27, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- - I agree with you that the article is completely devoid of any background and only talks about the event itself. The experience of the wrestlers has been well documented and it should be included in the article.

PPV Notes

Thought it might be a decent idea to include which matches were featured in the pay per view, whether that was a separate section or just a tag indicator on the matches similar to the (c) or a superscript ^P, as an example. Citation could be derived from the Internet Archive's copy of the event. I may take care of this myself, but wanted to leave it available to anybody interested. 50.239.176.10 (talk) 21:15, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
