Tetsuya Endo criticised HARASHIMA for failing to protect his friends from losing again. Endo then said it won’t be HARASHIMA or Jiro Kuroshio who will be main eventing Sumo Hall in November. It will be Endo taking back the KO-D Openweight Title!

Nobuhiro Shimatani used the DAMNATION signboard as a weapon in his match but it came at a great cost. He broke the sign over Isami Kodaka’s face! Kodaka pinned Shimatani then had a staredown with Daisuke Sasaki.

Konosuke Takeshita asked for a singles match with Asuka at the 29th September show in Korakuen Hall. Takeshita promised that if Asuka can beat him, she will become the next No. 1 Contender for the KO-D Title after Takeshita defends it in Sumo Hall.

Gorgeous Matsuno has been riding on a wave of momentum this week. He recently finished 2nd Place in the 50s Class for a Best Body Japan bodybuilding competition in Tohoku. His ultimate goal is to win the big Grand Prix competition happening in November. But before that happens he will focus on pro wrestling and he challenged Sanshiro Takagi for the O-40 Title.

The American indy Game Changer Wrestling is currently making a splash in Japan and a visit to BASARA was on the cards for one G-Raver. The reason was simple, G-Raver wanted to avenge a loss to Isami Kodaka he suffered in GCW last year. The BASARA fans welcomed him with GCW chants but Kodaka was not so friendly towards him. The two sat down on chairs and hit each other with steel cans until Raver got busted open. Raver took over and put Kodaka through a table with a Diving Body Press out of the ring. A ladder came into play and Raver gave Kodaka a Suplex from the top of it. In the end Kodaka got the victory by hitting the Isamiashi Zan kick. Kodaka told G-Raver that he has beaten him twice now but is not against fighting him a third time. He called everyone in GCW crazy guys who came to Japan because they wanted to shed blood over here. He praised them for being a really crazy and good organisation. Kodaka & G-Raver shared beers and had a toast to GCW.

SAGAT was the last man standing in the Elimination Tag match. That was a big surprise for Ryuichi Sekine because he thought SAGAT was done for when he was knocked onto the edge of the apron. SAGAT fought back and stunned Sekine with a Headbutt. He then got back into the ring and hit Sekine from behind with the Goregrind for the upset win. SAGAT challenged Sekine to a Union MAX Title match afterwards.

Fuminori Abe was brought to wrestling court charged with lying about his education when he applied to join BASARA. He claimed to be a high school student when he is allegedly a junior high school student. Gouma Ryu defended Abe by saying he is a monk (he was dressed as one) so he does not do scams. Abe explained he attended high school at 16 but got suspended after a motorcycle accident. He dropped out of school three months later. Ryu and Banana Senga attacked Abe over this new found information but Abe fought both of them off. He then revealed that since dropping out he eventually returned to high school and graduated with a communications degree. The court declared him not guilty.

A few relationship situations to look out for on this show. Has The Iron Family truly put their differences aside now that FUMA is on Team Dove Pro? How will Daichi Kazato gel with Best Stretchman Amazon now that he is only partially possessed by Best Stretchman V3? Last, the opener is between Takato Nakano and Masato Kamino who regularly team together.

*V1 for Ryuichi Sekine.

It’s only his first defence but Ryuichi Sekine has removed arguably the biggest threat of his Union MAX Title reign by beating Isami Kodaka with a dangerously close finish. After a tense 25 minutes of fighting, both men were reduced to throwing every kick they could at each other. Sekine and Kodaka were both at their limit and struggling to stand to the point where they were at risk of being counted out. After another back and forth both men were laid out with Sekine getting the last strike with a Right High Kick. Sekine was barely able to get up by the count of 9 but Kodaka was down and out. Sekine thanked Kodaka for the match but admitted he does not feel like he exceeded him today. Beating him once isn’t enough to achieve that. BASARA will be going independent soon so Sekine will follow Kodaka into independence! He also said he will defend the MAX Title against any other wrestler on the BASARA roster.

Any attempt to bring harmony among The Iron Family went right out the window with their tag match. The Hiroshi du Soleil team pushed each other during their entrance while the IRON PRIEST team came out separately despite using the same song. The dissension within both teams got worse to the point where the tag team match looked more like a 4 Way Match. The match was called off when the referee Yuya Okada got knocked out during the chaos. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi got the match to restart but this time as a 4 Way. When FUMA won, Hiroshi began singing “Imagine” which reduced FUMA to tears. FUMA said he never thought Hiroshi was into metal or rock music but here he is singing a song from the source of heavy metal… The Beatles!(?) Yusuke Kubo and SAGAT joined in the hug and all four forgave each other. The bonds of The Iron Family have been healed!

The main event of “FUMA FEST VOL.3” is FUMA Vs TAJIRI in a Hardcore Match. The show will take place on 16th November.
