It was two years ago when Union last held a show in Kitasenju Theatre. The venue was packed for their return highlighted with the Union Sekigun standing up to Team Dream Futures. Unfortunately for the home team, Drift were victorious by the night’s end. Keisuke Ishii wasn’t impressed and asked if that was the best Union had to offer. Isami Kodaka took offence to that and had a confrontation with Ishii. Naomi Susan announced that Kodaka and Ishii will have a match at Union’s next event in Shin-Kiba 1st RING on 28/10.

Earlier in the semi-main event, Kodaka defeated Goro Jr. He and Goro had a handshake afterwards but when he tried to do the same with El Hijo del Goro, he was met with a middle finger.

Clearly inspired by the recent riveting discussion about whether or not Big Daddy should be inducted into the Wrestling Observer Hall Of Fame, Hiroshi Fukuda decided to be a gentlemen and wrestle under “Great Britain” rules for his Handicap match against Cherry & Mio Shirai. Part of the rules were to wrestle clean like a gentleman and he also only had to be pinned for two seconds instead of three to lose. Mio did just that two minutes later. Fukuda complained and remembered that the British doesn’t actually use those rules, so they restarted the match under normal Handicap rules. This time Fukuda fought dirty and attempted to use a chair and a tambourine as weapons. Rumi Kazama stopped him from using the foriegn objects and the distraction led to his defeat for the second time. Fukuda was so upset he fled backstage (and I quote from the website translation) “crying like a virgin.”
