The DDT representatives over in NOAH got mixed results at today’s show held in Korakuen Hall. In the main event Tetsuya Endo challenged Shane Haste for the GHC Heavyweight Title, hoping to achieve his goal of becoming the champion of NOAH during his extended absence from DDT. The two wrestlers are normally allies within the White Raven Sqwad faction but that friendship was put aside once the bell rang to begin the match. Endo hit the Shooting Star Press but was too hurt from the impact to pin Haste in time (he had missed the same move a minute earlier so it was just all catching up to him at that point). But when he had Haste stunned in the corner, Endo got into a sumo stance and ran across the ring to hit the God’s Right Knee! Sadly the combined tribute to Kazusada Higuchi and Yukio Sakaguchi wasn’t enough for Endo to win. Haste knocked Endo loopy with a Shoryuken over at the corner then used the Sleeper Suplex and Piledriver for a nearfall. Endo kicked out again after taking a Short-Range Lariat but was then put away with his reverse version of the Death Valley Bomb. Haste thought he was going to crush Endo like a beetle today but he learned Endo is super tough like a stag beetle, a rhinoceros beetle or a big bad Beetleborg. Endo had said he was going to give an announcement if he won the GHC Title today but since he didn’t, he will put the announcement on hold for now and continue to aim for the championship.
Things could not have gone any better for Yuki Iino in the match before that. He and Manabu Soya followed up from winning the NEO GLOBAL TAG LEAGUE by beating Los Tranquilos de Japon for the GHC Tag Team Titles! The passion of the challengers was tested when BUSHI blinded Soya by spitting mist in his face but Iino guided his partner so they could give Tetsuya Naito a Double Back Drop. Iino then rubbed his face against Soya to wipe off some of the mist so Soya could see clearly again. The two then psyched each other up to charge at BUSHI and then they gave him the Jonetsu IS for the title change. Jonetsu MAX’s big moment was quickly ruined when Masa Kitamiya & Takashi Sugiura from Team 2000X came into the ring to attack them. Kitamiya is sick of hearing them go on and on about passion so he and Sugiura are going to be their first challengers.
