4. Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Title: Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa defeated Chou-un Shiryu & Cao Zhang (w/ Princess Makoto) (c) when Takagi pinned Shiryu with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (13:30).
*Chou-un Shiryu & Cao Zhang fail in V1. Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa become the 19th Champions!
5. Genichiro Tenryu defeated Tsuyoshi Kikuchi with a Lariat (7:15).
6. El Generico & Yano K Data defeated Shuji Ishikawa & Shinichiro Tominaga when Generico pinned Tominaga with the Brainbustaaaaahhhhh!!!!! (17:11).
7. DDT Extreme Title – 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated MIKAMI (2-1).
7a. Isami Kodaka defeated MIKAMI with a School Boy (1:43).
7b. MIKAMI defeated Isami Kodaka with the Suicide Bomb from the tope of a ladder (9:43).
7c. Isami Kodaka defeated MIKAMI with a Leglock (6:28).
*V2 for Isami Kodaka.

Isami Kodaka resisted a fierce challenge from MIKAMI to keep the DDT Extreme Championship. In a Best 2 out of 3 Falls match, Isami got the first fall by beating MIKAMI with his own favorite move, the School Boy. MIKAMI’s ladder came into play in the second fall and the challenger’s expert use of the object helped him tie the score. However in the third fall, Kodaka was able to break down MIKAMI’s leg and eventually submit him to stay as champion.

Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa became Tag Team Champions once more by winning the Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles from Chou-un Shiryu & Cao Zhang. Their match turned hardcore with plenty of brawling among the crowds plus the use of foreign objects like tables, a bicycle and a pile of DVDs. Princess Makoto even got involved by climbing on top of a barricade and diving onto the challengers. However it just was not meant to be for the New Beijing crew and their illustrious championship is now in the hands of the TKG48. Could this be the rebirth of the “Greatest Title Run Ever”? We will soon find out as it was announced that the first team to challenge the new champs will be The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji!

8. Best of the Super Jr. – Block B: KUSHIDA [4] defeated Kota Ibushi [0] with the Midnight Express (12:46).

NJPW, 29/05/11
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1,950 Fans

Best of the Super Jr. – Block B: Daisuke Sasaki [2] defeated Gedo [0] with the NOW OR NEVER (11:10).

NJPW, 02/06/11
Toyohashi City Gymnasium #2
1,200 Fans

1. Best of the Super Jr. – Block B: Jushin Thunder Liger [4] defeated Daisuke Sasaki [2] with an Air Scissors Drop (8:06).
3. Best of the Super Jr. – Block A: Kenny Omega [6] defeated Fujita “Jr.” Hayato [4] with the Croyt’s Wrath (10:43)
5. Best of the Super Jr. – Block B: Kota Ibushi [2] defeated Mascara Dorada [2] with a Firebird Splash (7:28).

Kenny Omega is carving through the competition, winning all three of his matches so far. He has now defeated Koji Kanemoto twice in BOSJ match and can now add Fujita “Jr.” Hayato to the list of wins over big names in the Jr. Heavyweight scene. Omega is currently tied in first place along with Prince Devitt and Tiger Mask. Omega’s next opponent is American wrestler TJP.

Kota Ibushi on the other hand is hoping he has gotten over his poor start to the tournament. He lost to KUSHIDA in a big upset on the 28/5 event but finally grabbed his first points by beating Mascara Dorada on today’s show. Ibushi’s next opponent is TAKA Michinoku. Both Ibushi and Omega had their day off on 29th May and will have matches for the rest of the tour.

Daisuke Sasaki is having a similar run to Ibushi. Only one win in four matches. His sole victory came over the veteran Gedo, so at least he’s gotten something out of the tour. Sasaki’s next opponent is The Great Sasuke.
