Today’s Ganbare☆Pro show revolved around the G3 Climax, a one day round robin tournament. It was originally supposed to be a 3 person competition between Tomohiro Otani, Shota and Gorikiko. Instead it became a 4 person tournament with Yumehito Imanari filling the extra spot. Shota won all three of his matches and was crowned the G3 Climax winner.

The celebration ceremony with him and Ken Ohka was interrupted by Osamu Namiguchi and the newly renamed Bad Tension TAMAGAWA, who challenged them to an impromptu tag match. TAMAGAWA’s new mean streak proved too much for a tired Shota and the invaders scored another victory over Ganpuro. TAMAGAWA talked down the G3 Climax tournament and told the Ganbare wrestlers they are all losers. If they wanted to be winners, they should join him and Namiguchi. When they left Ohka gave his motivation speech and brought out Shota’s prize for winning the G3, a Tokyo Sports Award trophy Ohka received back in 2006.

Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum

2. Tsukasa Fujimoto defeated Gorikiko with the Venus Shot (7:48).
3. Kazuhiko Ogasawara defeated Tanomusaku Toba by Referee Stoppage with the Ogasawara Special (6:03).

5. Ganbare☆Pro Vs Saitama Wrestling: Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari defeated Survival Tobita & Wild Predator Gaiju Taro II when Ohka pinned Taro with the Spear Of Fire (8:43).
6. Ganbare Tamagawa Vs Osamu Namiguchi ended in a No Contest (4:46).
6a. Osamu Namiguchi & Kazuhiko Ogasawara defeated Ken Ohka & Ganbare Tamagawa when Namiguchi pinned Ohka with the Lanakila-N (2:43).

Ganbare Tamagawa’s attempts to defeat Osamu Namiguchi turned out to be a farce as Tamagawa revealed his true colours and betrayed Ken Ohka. The main event match between Tamagawa and Namiguchi was thrown out when Kazuhiko Ogasawara intruded, followed by Ken Ohka who tried to rescue his friend. A Tag Team match between the four was quickly made and Ohka was on the verge of winning when Tamagawa struck him in the gut. Namiguchi then delivered the Lanakila-N to grab the tainted victory.

Tamagawa told Ohka afterwards that he used to believe in Ganbare☆Pro so much that he changed his name to match it. But he never grew stronger. Now he found a new partnership with Namiguchi & Ogasawara that would make him strong. Namiguchi then told Ohka that this was reality and Ganbare is below them. Ohka was left on his own and he began to cry. He still believes in Ganbare and wants to fulfil his dream. He will lose and he will get frustrated but he will still work hard. He will not give up his dream to turn Ganbare into a major company.

Ohka was in a much better mood before all this went down. He and Yumehito Imanari defeated the Saitama team of Survival Tobita & Wild Predator Gaiju Taro II when Imanari threw a net over Taro and Ohka Speared him. Imanari thanked Tobita for the match they had and told him he loved the feeling he got whenever he watched Tobita wrestle in Saitama.

A 3 person Round Robin competition was set up on this show. Tomohiro Otani, Shota and Gorikiko were brought together by Ohka to compete against each other. Ohka called Shota the master of American wrestling, noted that Gorikiko wanted to be Ganbare’s “Cinderella” and recognised Otani as a master amateur wrestler. So Ohka wants to put them together and see who is the best in the tournament he calls the G3 Climax.
