Kenny Omega suffered a dislocated ankle while training during the week. The injury will put him off this weekend’s big Ring Of Honor iPPV event and may also remove him from the last DDT show of the year on 26th December. He and Kota Ibushi are supposed to defend the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Titles against Jado & Gedo on that show. The match might have to be delayed until 2011 to allow Omega to properly recover. This means he may also have to miss wrestling at the Tokyo Dome for New Japan on 4th January aswell.
I don’t follow that much of the joshi scene but I do know there is a split of opinion when it comes to the wrestler Kana. Some joshi enthusiasts are fans of her only because they fancy the woman. Others criticise her for wrestling a wreckless Bati style and having little regard for the safety of her opponents in matches, among other things. I’m not ashamed to admit I am part of the former. Hey, I’m a sucker for an Asian girl with short hair and a cute face.
Anyway, the reason I bring this up is because the lovely Kana will be holding her next produce show in January and it will have some DDT and Union alumni involved. Kota Ibushi and Hikaru Sato are no slouches when it comes to the Bati Bati style of fighting which I am sure the show will be built around while Isami Kodaka will take part in another Hardcore match. He’s used to them by now. At least he should be.
