BASARA “BASARA 265 ~UTAGE~”, 29/12/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated SAGAT & Antonio Honda when Senga pinned SAGAT after the Shining Gongitsune Mistaken Attack from Honda (8:07).
2. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Gouma Ryu with a Front High Kick (9:10).
3. Takato Nakano & Shota Kawakami defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Takeru Inoue when Nakano pinned Inoue with the Ken Katabami (13:15).
4. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomuta defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi when Sekine submitted FUMA with the Let’s Combine (13:38).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) defeated Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken when Abe pinned Kazato after the Period. Misfire from Kraken (13:32).
*V4 for Astronauts.
6. Union MAX Title: Masato Kamino defeated Minoru Fujita (c) with the Lariat (18:32).
*Minoru Fujita fails in V8. Masato Kamino becomes the 22nd Union MAX Champion!
BASARA in 2024 began with Minoru Fujita winning the Union MAX Title and ends with him losing it. Masato Kamino was able to kick out after taking the SAYONARA twice and hit the Lariat only for Fujita to kick out of that too. Kamino fought hard to hit another Lariat and when he finally did he was able to win the match with it. He wished Fujita to rest well for the great job he did as champion and thanked the fans for supporting BASARA this year. Ten years ago in Chiba he never imagined he would ever win a singles championship and now he is the man on top for a company. He will treat the belt like it is a baton Fujita passed over to him and will not give it up easily. He then nominated his tag partner Takato Nakano to be his first challenger.
Some miscommunication at the worst time cost Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken their chance to become the new Iron Fist Tag Team Champions. Kazato was switching positions back and forth with Fuminori Abe and they paused in front of Lil’ Kraken. Abe was in front so Kraken charged in to use his finisher called the Period. Abe ducked the move and Kazato took the blow, causing both of them to fall back with Abe landing on top for the pinfall. At least there is no anger between Kazato & Kraken over what happened. Abe thinks Kazato has evolved as a wrestler while Takuya Nomura thinks he is brainwashing everyone. Astronauts also noticed there were some foreign fans in attendance today. Abe wonders what those fans think BASARA wrestling is like compared to what they will see in the Tokyo Dome next week?
The match between Sento Minzoku and Asian Kung-Fu Generation was heated from the get go and continued after the match ended. Both sides continued fighting after the finish and had to be kept apart.
There was also continued fighting between Takeru Inoue and Shota Kawakami after Match #3. Both are rookies who debuted this year and wanted to see who was better. They started trading Elbow Strikes after the match and Inoue then chased Kawakami away from ringside.
Takumi Tsukamoto purposely dressed up like an office worker to throw shade at Gouma Ryu. He said before their match that Ryu is only good for doing trials. Ryu disagreed and wanted to prove he can wrestle too. Then when Tsukamoto took a breather outside the ring during the match Ryu taunted him for running away from pro wrestling. Tsukamoto got back in to finish the match and ended up winning with a couple of Front High Kicks. Ryu kicked out of the first one at the one count but was beaten with the second kick.

5f. Minoru Fujita eliminated Masato Kamino with the Modified Samson Clutch (24:42).
In the big warm up for the Union MAX Title bout on 29th December, Minoru Fujita scored the pin on Masato Kamino to win the Elimination Tag. Fujita went into the match with his right hand bandaged for injury but he was still able to catch Kamino in the Samson Clutch for the three count. He said he was happy to stop Kamino’s momentum and is certain have 2024 finish completely as year of Minoru Fujita. He then asked Kamino to promise him their title match will be one that burns from their hearts so they can cap off an unforgettable year. Kamino told him of course it will be like that.
Ryuichi Sekine thanked everyone for their congratulations to the news that he and Nodoka Tenma recently had their first child. He said he will still do his best in the ring and everyone should support BASARA.
Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken called out Fuminori Abe because they want to challenge Astronauts for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on the last BASARA show of the year. Ayato Yoshida was still nearby when the challenge was made so he asked Kazato if he could challenge him if he wins the belts? He doesn’t believe Kazato & Kraken are going to win but he’ll be rooting for them.
Everyone in Match #4 had beaten each other up so much that all four of them couldn’t answer a 10 Count. The match was ruled a draw but when everyone recovered and got back up, Kosuke Sato continued to throw Dropkicks at whoever was in his way.
The 3 Way Match was mostly SAGAT and Yasu Urano fighting each other because Gouma Ryu was too tired from his day job to wrestle properly. Ryu tried to act as the second referee but started arguing with the real one over who’s in charge. They came to an understanding though and the ref fast counted Ryu pinning SAGAT.

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~”, 08/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Lil’ Kraken defeated Takeru Inoue with the Period. (7:23).
2. Basara Jacket 4 Way Match: Daisuke Sekimoto defeated KUBITO, Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga by TKO when Ryu injured his back giving Sekimoto the Argentine Backbreaker (R3 1:47).
3. SAGAT & Antonio Honda defeated Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi when SAGAT pinned Urano with the Superman Press (14:25).
4. Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Tsuki no Ishi (10:19).
5. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita defeated Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida when Kodaka pinned Yoshida with the Modified Samson Clutch (23:12).
On 24th November Isami Kodaka will be challenging Ayato Yoshida for the 2AW Openweight Title at Korakuen Hall. Due to scheduling 2AW were not able to book any prelim matches between the two so BASARA organised one for today. Kodaka’s team went into the match with a small disadvantage because Minoru Fujita wrestled with a dislocated and fractured thumb joint. Yoshida was made to team with Daichi Kazato against his wishes because he had enough of him from his previous BASARA appearance in August. He was right to be concerned because Kazato decided to hurt his own hand before fighting Fujita to make sure it was now an even fight between them. Also Kazato ended up costing Yoshida the match when he missed a Rocket Punch and hit his partner by mistake. Kodaka then put Yoshida in the Modified Samson Clutch for the three count.
Kodaka told Yoshida after the match he will give it his all on 24th November and won’t beat him in a weird way like today. He’s been a champion in many promotions but never for 2AW so he’s looking forward to adding one of their championships to his collection. Fujita also promoted his own match on the show and offered to be in Kodaka’s corner. The two of them allowed Yoshida to close out the show but he got annoyed because he doesn’t understand why they would let him do that. He also got angry at the fans booing his closing speech. Backstage Yoshida said BASARA and its fans are all messed up and full of annoying people.
Gouma Ryu’s bad back became a problem for him again. He wanted to put Daisuke Sekimoto in the Argentine Backbreaker but didn’t have the strength to lift him. KUBITO and Banana Senga helped Ryu commit to the move but when Ryu lifted Sekimoto onto his shoulders his back went out and he had to give up the match. Sekimoto wanted to read out a legal indictment out of the match but Senga interrupted him. Senga then revealed the Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial will return next time.
The Period. (the full stop is intentional) used by Lil’ Kraken is a Standing Shining Wizard.

Suguru Miyatake will be in attendance. His three year wrestling career was plagued with injuries and he eventually retired years after it was clear he wouldn’t be able to return to the ring.

BASARA “BASARA 260 ~KOO~”, 30/10/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine defeated Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita when Kodaka pinned Shimomura with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (12:17).
2. Daichi Kazato defeated Gouma Ryu by forfeit when Ryu injured himself from doing an Argentine Backbreaker (7:21).
3. KUBITO & SAGAT defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Yasu Urano by Knockout when SAGAT knocked out Hiroshi & Urano (12:10).
4. Daisuke Sekimoto defeated Masato Kamino with the Big Bang Catastrophe (13:33).
5. Takato Nakano, Lil’ Kraken & Takeru Inoue defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, FUMA & Ryota Nakatsu when Nakani pinned Nakatsu with a Cradle (14:47).
6. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) defeated Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Abe submitted Oosugi with a Modified Figure 4 Leg Lock (17:14).
*V3 for Astronauts.
It’s been almost a year and a half since the last time a BASARA show in Shin-Kiba 1st RING was held under the “KOO” branding. That meant it was not an all you can drink kind of show that you would get with the “UTAGE” events. Astronauts were confident the fans would still have fun watching them fight Speed Of Sounds for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. After winning the match, Fuminori Abe suggested the next opponents could include somebody like Daichi Kazato or Yasu Urano because Takuya Nomura has never gotten a chance to fight either of them.
Match #3 featured so many tags and partners running in that the teams ended up getting mixed up and everyone lost track of who they were meant to fight. It ended up with Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Yasu Urano knocking each other out, making KUBITO & SAGAT the winners.
Daichi Kazato and Gouma Ryu wrestled each other both knowing they are evenly matched. So they believed they could fight forever to make each other stronger. Ryu soon got the upper hand and got over confident. He lifted up Kazato into the Argentine Backbreaker but that caused his back to go out so he had to give up while still doing the move.
All of Sento Minzoku were reunited with the return of Daiki Shimomura from his year long suspension from BASARA and absence from pro wrestling in general. He lost the match but told the fans starting today he will do his best for BASARA again.

BASARA “BASARA 258 ~SOUEN~”, 11/10/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Takato Nakano defeated Takeru Inoue with a Step-up Enzuigiri (8:15).
2. 2 Vs 4 Handicap Match: FUMA & Gouma Ryu defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Yasu Urano, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & KUBITO when Ryu pinned Hiroshi with a Diving Body Press (12:47).
3. Masato Kamino & Yusuke Kodama defeated Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu when Kamino pinned Kodaka with the Lariat (9:07).
4. Billy Ken Kid defeated Daichi Kazato with a Cradle (12:37).
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Masahiro Takanashi with the Modified Samson Clutch (22:21).
*V7 for Minoru Fujita.
It was around four years and eight months ago when Masahiro Takanashi defended the Union MAX Title against Minoru Fujita. It would be the last successful defence of his reign and he would lose the belt a month later by getting injured during his next title match. He never felt like he was beaten for the belt. Fujita meanwhile has been carrying the defeat to Takanashi ever since it happened and wanted the chance to exorcise it. So today’s match was an important title match for both wrestlers. Takanashi can regain the MAX Title and continue from where he was cut off or Fujita beats him properly and avenges his defeat from 2020. Either way Takanashi came to BASARA to finally get some closure.
The match was a bitter fight and Fujita even admitted out loud he waited four years for this. He did the Tombstone Piledriver but Takanashi kicked out of it. Fujita then countered the Takatonic and went for another Tombstone but it was turned into a Cradle for a nearfall. The two wrestlers kept countering Cradle moves on each other until Fujita pinned down Takanashi with the Modified Samson Clutch for the three count. Fujita said he worked really hard for this win which is why he is really happy about it. He and Takanashi now both have one win against each other. Takanashi said they could settle their score with a drinking contest in the ring. The two did just that with Takanashi finishing his drink before Fujita could. Fujita called Takanashi an irreplaceable friend who is always there for him. Also Fujita now has the record for most MAX Title defences in a single reign.
Daichi Kazato tried using a lot of unusual rolling moves to confuse Billy Ken Kid but in the end Kid was able to roll Kazato onto his shoulders and pin him down for the victory.
Even though Isami Kodaka lost to Masato Kamino he asked him for a UWA World Tag Team Titles shot after the match. Kodaka also said Hideyoshi Kamitani will be his partner because they haven’t teamed together in a while. Kamino accepted the challenge for 22nd October and said Aijin Tag won’t lose to a hastily made team.
At the start of the show FUMA and Gouma Ryu started talking about their careers outside of wrestling (hunter and lawyer respectively) and started getting along even though they were supposed to be opponents later. KUBITO then called Ryu a part-time wrestler which Ryu found insulting. FUMA & Ryu both wouldn’t stand for it so they decided to change their 6-Man Tag Match into a Handicap match. The two of them were now teaming up against the other four wrestlers! During the match Ryu kept getting ganged up on by his opponents and FUMA got tired of saving him. FUMA walked out of the match leaving Ryu to fight by himself. Through sheer luck Ryu fought off his opponents and climbed the top rope to hit a big finish on Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. FUMA then reappeared at the entrance armed with his hunting rifle and he shot Ryu. Ryu ended up falling on top of Hiroshi anyway and scored the pinfall.

BASARA “BASARA 256 ~SOUEN~”, 27/08/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Takato Nakano & Banana Senga defeated KUBITO & Lil’ Kraken when Senga pinned Kaken with a Jumping Spinning Cradle (11:10).
2. SAGAT, Takeru Inoue & Judomaster defeated Gouma Ryu, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano when Judomaster pinned Ryu with the Osotogari (12:25).
3. Isami Kodaka defeated Tsutomu Oosugi wwith a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (11:32).
4. Ayato Yoshida defeated Daichi Kazato with an Oklahoma Roll (14:39).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu when Abe submitted Sekine with the O-Manjigatame (14:24).
*V2 for Astronauts.
Astronauts are among the wrestlers who are happy to see BASARA increasing its schedule because it means they get to have even more fun matches like the one they had today against Cavalry. They retained the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles and told Cavalry to get stronger so they can fight each other again and again. The finish to the match went awry because Fuminori Abe put Ryuichi Sekine in the Manjigatame and the bell rang prematurely. The match continued and Sekine gave up anyway. Both Abe & Takuya Nomura are confident they can defend the tag titles forever until they die. They also describe the matches they want to do should be like good snacks for everyone to enjoy with their drinks. Ryota Nakatsu likes the sound of that because the show ended too late for him to catch his last train home so he’s going to spend the rest of the night drinking instead.
Two days ago Ayato Yoshida won the 2AW Openweight Title over in his home promotion. When his match against Daichi Kazato began Kazato congratulated him on the achievement. The match ended with Kazato missing the Firebird Splash and Yoshida used an Oklahoma Roll to pin him.
At the start of the show Gouma Ryu complained about having gout in his foot. All of the other wrestlers in the match he was booked for except for Takeru Inoue stepped on his foot to see if he was telling the truth but that only made his injury worse. Ryu was able to wrestle in the match despite that but lost after taking an Osotogari throw from Judomaster.

1. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka when Nakano pinned Isaka with the Kenkatabami (8:53).
2. FUMA, KUBITO & Daichi Kazato defeated SAGAT, Gouma Ryu & Antonio Honda by Referee Stoppage when Kazato submitted Ryu with the Trigger Point (9:01).
3. Karate Master & Minoru Fujita defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Karate Master pinned Judomaster with the Let’s Seikentsu Mid-level Thrust (8:05).
4. Yasu Urano defeated Isami Kodaka with the Modern Times (13:34).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi (c) when Abe submitted Nakatsu with the Arm Hold Manjigatame (15:33).
*Harimao fails in V5. Astronauts becomes the 12th Iron Fist Tag Team Champions!
That’s all she wrote for Harimao’s run as the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions. The titles now belong to Astronauts! It happened when Fuminori Abe trapped Ryota Nakatsu in the Manjigatame while Takuya Nomura cut off Kazusada Higuchi by putting him in a similar submission hold. Abe told Nomura after the match they will go on a fierce road of title defences that only they can do. Not only are they going to liven up BASARA but the rest of the wrestling world too! They are even thinking about defending the belts overseas.
In a manner similar to Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi’s recent disappearances, Ryuichi Sekine wasn’t anywhere to be found for his match today (apparently he took a nap somewhere backstage and overslept). Luckily a replacement was found in a newcomer called Karate Master. Just like Judomaster his martial arts talents are cancelled out by his lack of pro wrestling knowledge. However he did know how to pin his opponent and did so after hitting Judomaster with a Karate style Diving Fist Drop. After the match Minoru Fujita and Takumi Tsukamoto continued to fight each other. Fujita blamed it on the karate gi he wore for the match. He claims it made him more fired up than usual so he will never wear it again.
Last month SAGAT and Gouma Ryu had a confrontation that included Ryu objecting to SAGAT making Superman references without permission to use the trademark. That must have all been solved this month because SAGAT wore his Superman inspired gear, Antonio Honda was straight up wearing a full Superman costume and Ryu revealed during the match he was also wearing a Superman costume beneath his suit. Unfortunately their superpowers werent’ strong enough and Daichi Kazato rendered Ryu unconscious by grabbing the trigger points in his shoulders.

1. Ryuichi Sekine, Fuminori Abe & Gaia Hox defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Yasu Urano when Hox pinned FUMA with the Butterfly Effect (13:11).
2. SAGAT defeated Gouma Ryu with the Superman Splash (8:41).
3. Lil’ Kraken, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Isami Kodaka, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Kraken pinned Nakano with the High Angle Jumping Knee Butt (9:43).
4. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi (c) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Nakatsu pinned Judomaster with the V Slider (16:47).
*V4 for Harimao.
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Daichi Kazato with a Body Press after Kazato missed the Firebird Splash (20:33).
*V4 for Minoru Fujita.
So close but yet so far. Daichi Kazato kicked out of the SAYONARA Tombstone twice and got Minoru Fujita in position for a big high flying move to finish him off. Kazato went for the Firebird Special but Fujita rolled out of the way and Kazato crashed onto the mat. The miss cost him everything because Fujita pinned him afterwards to remain as the Union MAX Champion. After the match Fujita told Kazato he knows nothing about him but was happy to share a little bit of his heart with him today. Kazato thanked the fans for supporting him and apologised to them for losing. When he left the ring, Fujita waited to see if anyone would come out to challenge him. Nobody did so he closed out the show by himself. Backstage Fujita told reporters that good matches happen all the time but they will be forgotten about after a month or even a week. What he sets out to do is have a match that will leave a deep mark in everyone’s hearts like a scar. That is what makes a great match to him.
Is there any team out there that can beat Harimao? That is the question now being asked by the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions after their latest successful title defence. Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster had a bumpy road leading into the title match but went into the match as a well oiled team. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough even with Judomaster taking off his gi to take the match up a level against Ryota Nakatsu while Tsukamoto took out Kazasada Higuchi with a Plancha. Harimao won in the end and praised the challengers for giving them a good fight.
Today was Takato Nakano’s first match back from his minor shoulder injury. He lost his tag match though. Lil’ Kraken got the pin on him with the Juping Knee Butt. Nakano wanted to keep fighting Kraken after the match but Masato Kamino stepped in to stop him.
The lawyer Gouma Ryu kept accusing SAGAT of copyright infringement during their match. Everytime SAGAT did something that allegedly copied something else, Ryu would threaten him with a 10,000 yen fine or jail time if he couldn’t afford it. SAGAT wanted to do a Running Cannonball into the corner? Ryu would fine him because he is copying Shigehiro Irie. He wanted to do a Superman Splash? That was infringing American copyrights. It led to SAGAT constantly searching for money outside the ring so he could pay the fines. He then turned the tables after Ryu gave him the Running Neckbreaker and shouted his catchphrase because Ryu is just copying Ryuma Go! From that point on SAGAT ignored the warnings and beat Ryu with the Superman Splash.
