Shota went through hell today and got not one, but two Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title defences out of it. In the planned main event, Shota defeated Miss Mongol by the skin of his teeth in a Street Fight. Mongol attacked Shota with a barbed wire bat, chairs and a barbed wire board. She gave him a Piledriver through a table and also Power Bombed him onto some chairs. Shota escaped with a win when he countered the Thunder Fire Power Bomb into the Gannosuke Clutch. He said he was proud an an indy wrestler to have an FMW style match against Mongol. He isn’t from the generation that experienced FMW in real time but he understands they are the reason there are many indy groups around now. He also said pro wrestling is no longer divided by age and genders. Mongol said twenty years ago she never thought she could get a shot at the title because it was a championship only for men. She thanked Shota for letting her challenge for it today. Shota encouraged her to continue wrestling especially when her child is at an age where they are starting to understand what she is doing.
When Mongol left the ring, Shota was interrupted by Yasu Urano. They started arguing until Shota over tweets they made about each other during the day. Shota challenged Urano to a match on 24th January with the title on the line. Urano didn’t want to wait that long so Shota decided they would have the match right now! Daisuke Kiso warned the both of them that there was not enough time left in the show to allow a 20 minute time limit. They all agreed to a 10 minute limit and begun the impromptu title match. Urano did the SAYONARA Tombstone but the Frog Splash he did afterwards was blocked with Shota’s knees. Shota put Urano in the Gannosuke Clutch but the bell rang and the match was ruled a draw. Urano blamed the result on being tired because he wrestled two matches today. Shota said it was his second match too. They agreed to a proper title rematch on 24th January. However, Shota also has a title defence at JUST TAP OUT on 15th January. If he loses the title on that show then the match against Urano will have nothing on the line. Urano wants to fight for something so if the belt is out of the picture by then, he is demanding Shota to put his hair on the line!
Ikuto Hidaka continues to mow through the Ganbare☆Pro roster with a victory over Keisuke Ishii. Now he has gotten the attention of Shuichiro Katsumura. He’s not concerned over ages, he just wants to fight strong guys. He promises to beat Hidaka on behalf of Ganpro! Hidaka accepted. His driving force right now is being undefeated in Ganpro. He feels he can’t afford to lose to them at this point.
There was suspicion surrounding HARUKAZE all day. At the start of the show she took out 50,000 yen and told everyone she would give it to a referee as both a New Year’s gift and a bribe. When her match with Asuka began, she started acting weird towards the Daisuke Kiso. When she threw the referee at her opponent, HARUKAZE called for help and her plan was revealed. Yumehito Imanari ran out wearing a referee shirt and took over officiating the match, blatantly helping HARUKAZE. Asuka had to fight against a two on one disadvantage but pulled through with it, kind of by accident. She missed a Spin Kick aimed for HARUKAZE but still caught Imanari with it. That allowed her to give both of them a Double Choke Slam and Kiso recovered to count the pin. Asuka then took her frustration out on Imanari after the match by stomping on his balls.
Ken Ohka gave a speech to start the show. He calls the current situation in Tokyo difficult but you never know what the future holds. That’s why he thinks it is important for everyone to appreciate every moment they have as hard as they can. He doesn’t know if this is the last he is going to say this but the Ganpro wrestlers will fight hard so please give them all of your support this year.
