3. Survival Tobita Vs J-Soul Pandita III
4. Ken Ohka Vs Bad Tension TAMAGAWA

Bad Tension TAMAGAWA wants to prove he has grown stronger and promises to fight fair and square. Osamu Namiguchi on the other hand is so strong that Yumehito Imanari has to team with Gorikiko in a Handicap Match just to have a chance of beating him at full strength.

After winning the G3 Climax back in August, Shota now aims to become the ace of Ganbare☆Wrestling. Osochin Aries is his hand picked opponent to kick start his journey.

The Champion Vs Champion matches continue. For the second time in 2013 the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Extreme Title will both be put on the line and for the moment the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title will be involved too. HARASHIMA won the Iron Man Title from Danshoku Dino, defending the KO-D Title in the process. Antonio Honda won a Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament (which I now consider a bigger achievement than winning the Bound For Glory Series) to become the number one contender.

GANBARE☆PRO 4, 30/09/2013

5a. Tomohiro Otani eliminated Kazuhiko Ogasawara by Ring Out (8:34).
5b. Bad Tension TAMAGAWA eliminated Tomohiro Otani with a School Boy (9:55).
5c. Ken Ohka and Bad Tension TAMAGAWA were both eliminated by Double Ring Out (15:10).
5d. Yumehito Imanari eliminated Osamu Namiguchi by Ring Out (19:16).

Ganbare☆Pro scored a major victory over its invading enemy in the biggest show of its short existence. Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Tomohiro Otani defeated the team of Osamu Namiguchi, Kazuhiko Ogasawara & Bad Tension TAMAGAWA in the main event. Otani was added to the team when he successfully passed Ohka’s Spear of Flame training, which consisted of being struck once in the abdomen with a flaming torch without being knocked off your feet. The training probably wasn’t the best idea because Otani was taken away by a stretcher and had to wrestle the match with his abdomen covered in medical tape. Yumehito Imanari was the hero of the day. He was the last man standing, eliminating Osamu Namiguchi to win the match for Ganpuro. After the match Imanari told Namiguchi he is not afraid to face him in a singles match. Ken Ohka also announced he will face Bad Tension TAMAGAWA in Shibuya on 30th October. Ohka wants to rehabilitate the man who betrayed him and he wants no interference involved.

J-Soul Pandita III is a large, uncontrollable ape-like creature. Its match with Ultraman Robin was called off when Pandita attacked the referee until Survival Tobita came to the rescue. Ohka decided that Tobita and Pandita will have a match on 30/10.

Gorikiko and Hanako Nakamori both wrestled while wearing Uniqlo branded clothing.

The Public Offer match was answered by three different groups. Ice Ribbon, wrestler Kim Yocchan and micro indy group RAW all answered the call. Ganpuro’s solution was to hold all three matches in the ring at the same time.


Ganbare In Shin-Kiba, Union 8th Anniversary Tournament, Mochizuki Enters Hard Hit

September 25, 2013

GANBARE☆WRESTLING 4, 30/09/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. General Public Offer Match: X Vs X
2. Hanako Nakamori Vs Gorikiko
3. Ultraman Robin Vs J-Soul Pandita III
4. Ricky Fuji Vs Shota
5. 6-Man Elimination Tag Team Match: Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & X Vs Osamu Namiguchi, Kazuhiko Ogasawara & Bad Tension TAMAGAWA

Last time on Ganbare☆Wrestling, Batten Tamagawa turned on Ken Ohka and sided with the invaders Osamu Namiguchi and Kazuhiko Ogasawara, changing his name to Bad Tension TAMAGAWA in the process. Ken Ohka and Yumehito Imanari get their first shot at revenge with a 6-Man Elimination Tag match that main events Ganpuro’s first Shin-Kiba show. However the Ganpuro team needs a third member. Tomohiro Otani volunteered to team with Ohka and Imanari but they aren’t too sure. Ohka decided to give Imanari an important challenge to prove he is strong and tough. He will put Otani through special training on the day of the show so he can teach him his Spear of Flame finisher. If Otani can pass the challenge and learn the move, he will be added to the team.

Ganbare☆Wrestling wants new wrestlers and they don’t mind who they are. Ken Ohka has opened up spots in the roster for new wrestlers no matter what their gender, wrestling experience and profession are. Ganpuro opened up a mixi website for applications and they will choose people to wrestle at the show.

8. 1 Day Tournament – Final: Winner of Semi Final 1 Vs Winner of Semi Final 2

Union celebrates its 8th Anniversary with a one day tournament between the main members of the roster. Meanwhile Idea Pocket continues its sponsorship with wrestlers fighting each other over the Idea Pocket idols. Mio Shirai wants to continue having the idols working exclusively for her. Menso~re Oyaji isn’t really interested in competing and would be happy with any resolution that involves him having a date with at least one of the idols. Mitomi Masayuki recently entered the contest and is desperate to win the heart of any woman involved. Mr. Nagata (no not Yuji!), a producer for Idea Pocket gets to decide who will be in Masayuki’s corner for the match.

HARD HIT “ROAD TO KORAKUEN”, 27/10/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Kamen Shooter Super Rider Vs Takaku Fuke
2. Poai Suganuma Vs Kotaro Nasu
3. Super Tiger Vs Koji Iwamoto
4. Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Masaaki Mochizuki

Dragon Gate’s Masaaki Mochizuki makes his Hard Hit debut to take on Yukio Sakaguchi.

Koji Iwamoto from Sportiva Entertainment is also a student of judo. He asked to enter Hard Hit and not to be paired with a joke fighter. Super Tiger is his opponent and he is to be taken seriously. Why? Because a lot of the Hard Hit roster thinks he is very dangerous and don’t want to get hurt by him.

Poai Suganuma is a graduate from the BJ Penn MMA Academy. He faced and defeated Hikaru Sato in his Pancrase debut back in 2005. He is not familiar with the Hard Hit ruleset but Sato believes he is a strong fighter.

Hikaru Sato, Yasu Kubota and Tiger Shark will be fighting on the card.

GANBARE☆Pro “GANPRO HOUSE SHOW 4”, 23/08/2013
Nanhai Ichigaya Memorial Clinic
70 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. G3 Climax: Yumehito Imanari (2) defeated Gorikiko (0) with a Cradle (2:06).
2. G3 Climax: Tomohiro Otani (2) defeated Gorikiko (0) with a Back Flip (1:16).
3. G3 Climax: Shota (2) defeated Tomohiro Otani (2) with a Headlock (3:16).

6. G3 Climax: Shota (6) defeated Yumehito Imanari (4) with a Sharpshooter (7:00).
*Shota wins the G3 Climax.
7. Osamu Namiguchi & Bad Tension TAMAGAWA defeated Ken Ohka & Shota when TAMAGAWA pinned Shota with the BT Bomber (11:52).

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.

GANBARE☆PRO 3, 21/07/2013
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum
120 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Crusher Takahashi defeated Shota with a Modified Figure 4 Leg Lock (12:24).
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).
4. Shinichiro Tominaga & Tomohiro Otani defeated Osochin Aries & Bradshaw Hidaka when Tominaga pinned Aries with the Satin Doll (10:00).
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.

It’s time to find out who goes into Sumo Hall as the KO-D Openweight Champion. Shigehiro Irie and Yuji Okabayashi both debuted in 2008 and were looked upon to fill up the strong heavyweight roles that were missing from the independent scene. Okabayashi was quicker than Irie to taste success, winning tag team championships with Daisuke Sekimoto in both All Japan and their home Big Japan. It was only just recently that Irie has become the dominant force DDT wanted him to be, holding the record of most KO-D Title defences in a single reign.

GANBARE☆PRO “GANPRO HOUSE SHOW 3”, 01/07/2013
Ichigaya Nanhai Memorial Clinic
80 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Kotaro Nasu defeated Fumihito Kihara with a Facelock (3:02).
2. Tanomusaku Toba defeated Yumehito Imanari by Knockout with a Straight Right (5:50).
3. Osamu Namiguchi & Kazuhiko Ogasawara defeated Shinichiro Tominaga & Tomohiro Otani when Namiguchi pinned Otani with the Lanakila-N (9:30).
4. Ken Ohka defeated Ganbare Tamagawa with the Flame Spear (14:10).

Even in defeat, Ganbare Tamagawa has been inspired by Ken Ohka to become stronger. Osamu Namiguchi & Kazuhiko Ogasawara confronted the two wrestlers after their match but was then cut off by Tanomusaku Toba. Toba challenged Ogasawara to a match and offered a handshake. Ogasawara accepted both. Tamagawa however charged at Namiguchi and the two had to be pulled apart. Both Toba Vs Ogasawara and Tamagawa Vs Namiguchi will take place in Saitama on 21st July.

Suddenly, Survival Tobita made a dramatic entrance. He does not take kindly to Ganbare☆Pro coming into his territory. Ohka and Yumehito Imanari challenged Tobita to a tag team match on 21/7. Tobita accepted and said his partner will be a Phantom!

Tomohiro Otani, the failed SMASH trainee was the person with the amateur wrestling background chosen to team with Shinichiro Tominaga to take on Osamu Namiguchi & Kazuhiko Ogasawara. Unfortunately for Otani, Namiguchi was too strong for him.

Lady Steel appeared demanding to know why she wasn’t booked for the show. She wants to be the Cinderella of Ganbare☆Wrestling and will beat anyone for the title. Ken Ohka gave her a new name, Gorikiko (meaning “Herculean Strength Steel”) and announced she will face Tsukasa Fujimoto on 21/7.

Even though Yumehito Imanari was knocked out, he told Tanomusaku Toba after their match that he had fun and wanted to wrestle him one more time. He even began to cry when he asked for the rematch.

Fumihito Kihara injured his left elbow during the opener.

Shota Vs Crusher Takahashi will happen at the 21/7 event.
