*V3 for Mizuki Watase.
Tyson Maeguchi showed up to the main event in his “Ultimate” form which prompted Mizuki Watase to take off his own boots and wrestling gear so he could also fight in his “Ultimate” form. Watase also leaned into Maeguchi’s strikes determined not to lose to the kickboxing style. He had a few close calls with Maeguchi getting some 2.9 pin counts. Maeguchi then decided to take off his boxing gloves and fight bare handed, almost knocking Watase out with a Knuckle Punch. Watase survived all of that to fight back with a Brainbuster, a Michinoku Driver II and finally the Venetian to get the win. Watase then told Maeguchi after the match he wants a shot at the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. However, Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima have also thrown out a challenge for the belts and later convinced Maeguchi to give them the match first on 4th July.
All throughout the show the wrestler SUSHI would walk down to the ring after some matches and plead his case for Ganbare☆Pro to book him again. He first confronted Ohka after the opening match to complain why he hasn’t appeared in GanPro since his first appearance in April. Ohka wasn’t interested and used the excuse that he is not the matchmaker to ignore him. Keisuke Ishii also turned down the offer of fighting SUSHI again, explaining the time isn’t right for him to get revenge for SUSHI pinning him last time around. SUSHI then interrupted an announcement from Michiyoshi Mishima asking to get booked only to be told has has to wait until the show was over to come talk about it. It wasn’t until after the main event was finished when Watase decided to nominate SUSHI as the next challenger for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title because unlike the others he likes to make sure promises are kept! Mishima reluctantly booked the title match for 4th July but only because Watase would throw another tantrum if it doesn’t happen.
With his 50th birthday approaching on 17th June, Shuichiro Katsumura decided his first goal at that age is to beat Takuya Wada for the SOG Tag Titles. He also told his opponents to remember today’s match when they all turn 50. He knows Wada will be fifty in two years time and Yumehito Imanari in ten years time. He then asked Moeka Haruhi how old she is and her answer was she hasn’t kept count since she turned 25.
Mishima’s big announcement that SUSHI interrupted was regarding YuuRI and her match at GanPro’s next Korakuen Hall show on 15th August. She is going to face Takumi Iroha in a singles match! YuuRI requested this match to happen because she has looked up to Iroha and watched her matches even before YuuRI became a wrestler herself. However she believes she cannot beat Iroha if she holds onto that admiration forever. That is the lesson she learned from her match with Utami Hayashihita back in April. So when she faces Iroha she will not be fighting her idol. Instead she is going to spark her own revolution inside Korakuen!
