First Matches For New Year’s Eve Announced, 3 Way Federation Tournament

November 23, 2012

“NEW YEAR’S EVE WRESTLING 2012”, 31/12/2012
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Cinderella Championship: Emi Sakura Vs X
2. Special Single Match: Osamu Nishimura Vs Atsushi Ohashi or Hiroshi Fukuda
3. Big Japan Vs DDT Vs KAIENTAI-DOJO 3 Way Match: Yoshihito Sasaki & Yuji Okabayashi Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dino Vs Kengo Mashimo & Shiori Asahi
4. DDT Vs KAIENTAI-DOJO: MIKAMI, Masa Takanashi & Akito Vs TAKA Michinoku, Daigoro Kashiwa & HIROKI
5. Big Japan Vs KAIENTAI-DOJO: Shinya Ishikawa & Shinobu Vs Taishi Takizawa & Yuki Sato
6. Big Japan Vs DDT: Kazuki Hashimoto Vs Takao Soma

A partial card for the 2012 New Year’s Eve supershow has been revealed. Shiori Asahi, Atsushi Ohashi, Hiroshi Fukuda and Kaji Tomato got together today to announce that this year’s event will be based around a three way tournament between Big Japan, DDT and KAIENTAI-DOJO. There will be a point system in place but how many points will be on the line for each match is so far unknown. Inspired by the Olympics held earlier in the summer, there will also be non-wrestling contests taking place throughout the show.

Osamu Nishimura’s opponent will be decided by a Samurai TV! survey. The survey will determine whether or not Atsushi Ohashi or Hiroshi Fukuda will be a suitable opponent for Nishimura. Ohashi said he should get the match because he is the “Bridge Ace” of Big Japan. Fukuda said he should get the match because the Union Non-Certified US Heavyweight Champion is the perfect opponent for a man who is a “legitimate successor” of the AWA and NWA style of wrestling.

So far the only woman signed up for the Cinderella Championship match is Emi Sakura. The title has been hyped up to be more important than any of the championships from the three promotions. However, they haven’t been able to find any suitable wrestlers to compete against Sakura. Shiori Asahi said he is taking applications from the public for potential challengers.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: El Generico (c) Vs MIKAMI

The two sides for the Castle Siege Death Match met each other on neutral grounds (the Dropkick Bar in Shinjuku) to determine the rules for their upcoming war in detail. The only problem was Sanshiro Takagi hadn’t thought up of the rules yet. Thinking on the spot, Takagi decided that both teams will have a castle made out of 20 chairs each set up inside Korakuen Hall. Tsurumi Amon wasn’t pleased with the idea because those 40 chairs might be needed for the audience. Takagi then came up with the idea of each castle having features like a keep, a gun turret and a moat. Amon said that would be impossible because DDT does not have the money to build such features (maybe they could cut a deal with the porn studio that built a house inside Korakuen for Big Japan back in 2003). He told the two sides that if they wanted siege weaponry, they would have to pay for it themselves. Takagi searched through his pockets for money and found 1,350 yen, a movie ticket stub, some receipts and a Chinese restaurant voucher. Everyone else pitched in and eventually both sides ended up with a war chest of 30,000 yen each to spend on their arsenal.

Kota’s Contract Conflict

November 6, 2012

Kota Ibushi got himself into an awkward situation today when he unintentionally crashed a press conference held by New Japan to promote their upcoming PPV on 11/11. The conference included a contract signing for the IWGP Jr. Title Match between champion Low Ki and challenger Prince Devitt. However, Ibushi entered the room before either wrestler and sat down at the table. When Devitt, Low Ki and New Japan president Naoki Sugabayashi entered they were surprised to see Ibushi greeting them. Ibushi explained he was here to sign the contract for his rematch with Low Ki. Sugabayashi tried to explain that the contract wasn’t for him. Ibushi sighed with disappointment but cheered up when Sugabayashi said that when this match is over, Ibushi will be able to compete for the next title shot. Ibushi tried to seal the president’s promise with a pinkie shake but Sugabayashi redirected the offer of gratitude to his interpreter Mr. Nishizawa. Ibushi then left the room and was escorted out of the building.
