At 62 years old Gorgeous Matsuno’s wrestling career has somehow just as fruitful as ever. This year he got to wrestle in All Japan for the first time and footage of his attempts to do the Gorgeous Superstar Elbow have gone viral on TikTok. Yet going into today’s show he was wondering if it was time to finally call an end to his wrestling career and make this show the final “GORGEOUS NIGHT”. Instead after winning the main event with his finisher he decided to postpone any retirement plans while he is still able to go in the ring. His partner Junko Tashiro encouraged him to keep doing his best until he dies. The two sang a duet together in the ring to end the show.

Just when Chris Brookes felt he was building up momentum, Yuji Hino send him crashing down to Earth with today’s result. The dreaded Fuckin’ BOMB led to Hino pinning Brookes and he warns he will do that move 100 times at the KO-D Openweight Title match on 23rd July! Brookes admits he may have come back from injury too early. He said his shoulder was at 90% but really he thinks it is at 70%. However, Brookes thinks it is his destiny to win the KO-D Title and will work hard every day until “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023”!

Matsuno gifted Saki Akai with a bouquet of flowers before her match to commemorate her 10 years in wrestling.
