4. FUMA, Kazushi Miyamoto & SAGAT (w/ MEN’S Teioh) Vs Shuji Ishikawa, Masato Shibata & Daichi Kazato

Shuji Ishikawa wants his Union MAX Title bout against FUMA on 29th April to be a No DQ match. FUMA won’t agree to it but Ishikawa hopes to change his mind in Yokohama.

Shu Shibutani is hoping to win the Fly To Everywhere Title just over a month before she retires from pro wrestling. The new champion Cherry wants to protect her belt at any cost and does not want to lose it to somebody who is on the verge of retirement.

Hiroshi Fukuda has bulked up and gained some weight while he was recovering from his injury. He wants to put his body to the test with a match against Madoka but Naomi Susan is convinced Fukuda just wants to get near Harumi Tachibana.

Union held two shows in Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR today dedicated to their Get The Glory tournament. All of Union’s regular talent took part and the prize was a match of the winner’s choice taking place in Korakuen Hall on 29th April. The end result saw some big changes to the promotion’s landscape.

In the afternoon show Goro Jr. surprised everyone with a victory over Seiya Morohashi in the first round and then a hard fought contest against FUMA in the second round. Goro failed to beat the Union MAX Champion but after the match asked for the microphone. He said up until now he was Goro Jr. but from now on he wants to fight as himself. Goro unmasked and was revealed to be Yuuya Kubo, the DDT cameraman who got involved in the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title match at “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”! After the reveal Naomi Susan invited Yumakoto to continue wrestling for Union.

Kazushi Miyamoto appeared at ringside for the second round match between SAGAT and Hiroshi Fukuda. He offered a handshake to Fukuda before the match but it was rejected. When the referee was knocked out during the match Miyamoto attacked Fukuda and told SAGAT to capitalise. Fukuda somehow recovered and pinned SAGAT with a School Boy. Miyamoto revealed after the match that he and SAGAT have been hired to create a new kingdom in Union and the mastermind would be revealed soon.

Elsewhere in the early rounds Hiroshi Fukuda beat Ryu Gouma in the battle between tambourines and statute books, Shuji Ishikawa had no problem giving Cherry the Splash Mountain and Isami Kodaka pulled out the Ocean Cyclone Suplex to beat Mio Shirai.

Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR
136 Fans – Super No Vacancy

5. Get The Glory 2015! Final: FUMA defeated Isami Kodaka with the Diving Headbutt (15:45).

The evening show featured the final rounds of the tournament. Isami Kodaka defeated Hiroshi Fukuda in the first semi final. In the second semi final SAGAT & Kazushi Miyamoto returned to help FUMA beat Shuji Ishikawa! FUMA was revealed to be their mastermind! The trio attacked Ishikawa with a chair and FUMA finished him off with the Jawbreaker kick.

So the final was between Kodaka and the newly turned heel FUMA. The Union MAX Champ had SAGAT & Miyamoto in his corner while Kodaka had Ishikawa & Daichi Kazato by his side. The match descended into chaos when FUMA’s henchmen interfered only for Kodaka’s allies to come to the rescue. When they were all taken out of the picture Kodaka tried to beat FUMA with a German Suplex. FUMA then countered a Leg Lariat into the Jawbreaker and then hit the Diving Headbutt to win the match and the tournament.

FUMA declared himself the undisputed ace of Union for being the champion, winning the tournament and beating Union’s best wrestlers in the process. He declined his prize of choosing what match to have on 29th April. Instead he challenged Kodaka to a match in Osaka on 1st March. FUMA then named another wrestler who is part of his new unit, MEN’S Teioh! FUMA declares he will change the history of Union Pro and his new group is the centre of the company!

Seiya Morohashi got a measure of payback on Yuuya Kubo when he submitted him to win the losers Battle Royal.

The new DDT Extreme Champion Shiori Asahi has been promoted to existential status and is no longer marked down as X on the match cards.

Not sure what to put down for Gota Ihashi if he loses the King Of Dark Title Match and stays as champion. D1 (defeat) defence, L1 (Loss) defence or should I just stick with V1 (Victory) for the irony?

Saitama Kasukabe Hall

1. KO-D Openweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) Vs Yoshihiko

Kota Ibushi has picked Yoshihiko to be the No. 1 Contender for the KO-D Openweight Title. It’s been five and a half years since their classic battle. Ibushi thinks its time they tangled again. During the times they fought since then, Ibushi noticed Yoshihiko has become heavier. He thinks that is a little scary.

The new KO-D Tag Team Champions knew they now have a bunch of DDT tag teams chasing after them. They just didn’t expect Danshoku Dino & Super Sasadango Machine to be leading the pack.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 10” Results

February 8, 2015

Ohka-Spear

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 10”, 08/02/2015
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR
123 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Let’s Go!! Bedscene!!: Yoshihiro Horaguchi & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Osamu Namiguchi & Tiger Bedscene when Tominaga pinned Bedscene with a Cradle (14:20).
2. Confrontation Of A Dream! Gundan Vs Gundan ~TOP OF THE SUPER ARMY~: Gundan Hitori defeated Ishihara Gundan Man by Pinfall (10:59).
3. Karate Vs Karate Chop Part 2: Chikara & Yumehito Imanari defeated Kazuhiko Ogasawara & Karate Zebra when Imanari submitted Zebra with a Half Crab (10:20).
4. URRC Vs Erokawa Principle ~No Calories Recording Diet Super Fight~: Kana defeated Angela Ami with the Kana Lock (10:00).
5. The Participation Story EPISODE 3 – Moment, Heart, Repeatedly ~ Both Of You, Dance Like You Want To Win!: Ken Ohka & Yukihiro Abe defeated Shota & Tomoya Kawamura when Ohka pinned Kawamura with the Spear Of Flame (17:53).

Ken Ohka got a small measure of revenge on Shota by getting the victory in the main event. Shota & Tomoya Kawamura attacked Ohka & Yukihiro Abe before the match began and they brawled around the audience. Ohka pinned Kawamura with the Spear Of Flame and challenged Shota to a one-on-one match for 22nd March. Shota accepted and said he will prove he has exceeded Ohka. Ohka promised he will take Shota to the limit.

Angela Ami was back in action to represent Yumehito Imanari’s bizarre URRC project. Ami was introduced as a Cruiserweight weighing in at “62 kg” which got a funny response from the fans. Her opponent today was Kana who entered the ring wearing similar Angela Aki glasses. Despite a good showing from Ami, Kana submitted her with the Crossface Chickenwing. Imanari was upset to see Ami lose and apologised for putting her on a diet that did not work. But he still has hope and came up with a new idea. He announced that Ami is going to get her very own modelling DVD!

K-DOJO wrestler Kotaro Yoshino was in the corner of Yoshihiro Horaguchi & Shinichiro Tominaga for the opening match. Yoshino got into a fight with Osamu Namiguchi afterwards so Ohka made Namiguchi & Tiger Bedscene Vs Horaguchi & Yoshino for 22nd March.

Ishihara Gundan Man was revealed to be Atsushi Maruyama. He tearfully explained that he had a friend in elementary school named Ishihara but he never knew where he went when they graduated from high school. So he became Ishihara Gundan Man as a tribute to his friend. Gundan Hitori was so upset by the story he also took off his mask and hugged Maruyama. They both declared they will never return to Ganpuro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE GIRLS BATTLE 2015 ROUND 2” Results

February 8, 2015

nonoko-pieflyflow

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE GIRLS BATTLE 2015 ROUND 2”, 08/02/2015
Tokyo BASEMENT MONSTAR
130 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Ai Shimizu defeated Yuka Sakazaki by KO with after a Rolling Leg Hook Cradle (9:06).
2. Shoko Nakajima defeated Erin with a Crosscut Cradle (6:55).
3. Nonoko & Akane Miura defeated Miyu Yamashita & KANNA when Nonoko pinned KANNA with the Pie Fly Flow (9:31).

Bust Deluxe continue to be the dominant force in Tokyo Joshi Pro by defeating Miyu Yamashita & KANNA. After the match Yamashita admitted she has been frustrated from constantly failing to beat Nonoko ever since their first match together one year ago. However she is determined to be the ace of Tokyo Joshi and begged Nonoko for a single match at Shinjuku FACE on 28th February. Nonoko was touched by Yamashita’s speech but criticised her for thinking she can become the ace just by wanting it. She accepted the challenge and hopes both of them will bring out their best.

Some more announcements were made for “SHINJUKU DASH”. Trainees MIZUHO and Misao will team together for their debut match. Ai Shimizu will take on Saki Akai. Finally Ririko Kendo’s return match has been postponed. Kendo has not yet fully recovered from her injury and while she has returned to training it was decided she was not yet ready to wrestle again.

Shoko Nakajima said she was on a diet for the last month but it was putting her in a bad mood. So even though she won her match today she still wasn’t happy. She and Yuka Sakazaki began to argue and Nakajima suddenly declared that the Fighting Comedians are breaking up! They then challenged each other to a match at “SHINJUKU DASH”. Sakazaki said she has a secret weapon and it is Ririko Kendo. However Kendo already said she can’t wrestle at the show.

The KO result from the opener is not nearly as violent as it sounds. Shimizu gave Sakazaki a Giant Swing then Sakazaki gave Shimizu a Rolling Leg Hook Cradle. Both girls were so dizzy they were given a ten count to stand up. Shimizu barely made it back to her feet but Sakazaki couldn’t so the match was awarded to Shimizu.

Sasadango Vs Sakuraba: Once In A Lunchtime! King Of Dark Title

January 20, 2015

6. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Isami Kodaka & FUMA (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Masato Shibata

Shuji Ishikawa has chosen U-File Camp fighter Masato Shibata as his partner for the UWA World Tag Team Title match. Ishikawa said there are now less big guys in wrestling than there used to be and what’s better in pro wrestling than big guys colliding into each other? So he has picked someone similar in size to himself to be his teammate.

Mio Shirai admitted she doesn’t know a lot about her next challenger Aoi Ishibashi. However, overcoming the odds is what a champion does so Shirai is willing to take the risk of not studying Ishibashi before their match.

DDT “SWEET DREAMS 2015”, 25/01/2015
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

6. Just Before Saitama Super Arena – Super Special 6 Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs Kota Ibushi, Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi
7. DDT Extreme Title – No Rope Escape Match: Akito (c) Vs Makoto Oishi

Akito’s reign of technical wrestling over the DDT Extreme Title now brings him into a match where rope escapes are not in effect. He and Makoto Oishi will have to rely on other means to avoid submission holds. Or maybe they both have a few moves up their sleeve that would benefit from rope usage.

8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi
9. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Kota Ibushi

Super Sasadango Machine’s opponent for Saitama Super Arena (the Community Arena, not the giant stadium) is none other than Kazushi Sakuraba! Sasadango’s only knew beforehand that he was getting a “super-heavyweight” opponent. Both men are said to be enthusiastic about the match.

Details have emerged for DDT’s newest… championship? Accomplishment? Reward? Whatever it is, the King Of Dark Title is only defended in dark matches and the first champion will either be Gota Ihashi or DJ Nira. However, the first champion will be whoever loses the match. For you see, the King of Dark is forced to wrestle only in dark matches until they win. Victories by the champion is what causes title changes so I assume defeats count as title defences. It is the championship nobody wants unless you want to wrestle early!

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2015” Results

January 11, 2015

union-old-gen

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2015”, 10/01/2015
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR
120 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Goro Jr. defeated Ryu Gouma with a Crossface Lock (0:16).
1a. Goro Jr. defeated Ryu Gouma with a Triangle Lancer (8:08).
2. Madoka defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Ranhyei (9:37).
3. Tomoya Kawamura defeated Awamori Man with a Sling Blade (11:22).
4. Come Out Tag Match: Isami Kodaka, Shuji Ishikawa, Seiya Morohashi & Cherry defeated FUMA, Daichi Kazato, SAGAT & Mio Shirai (39:40).
4a. FUMA eliminated Seiya Morohashi with the Jawbreaker (10:38).
4b. Shuji Ishikawa eliminated Mio Shirai By Ring Out (14:19).
4c. SAGAT eliminated Cherry with the Crushed Spring Night Love (16:58).
4d. Shuji Ishikawa eliminated SAGAT with the Running Knee Lift (25:04).
4e. Daichi Kazato and Shuji Ishikawa were both eliminated by Double Ring Out (37:06).
4f. Isami Kodaka eliminated FUMA with the Isamuashi Zan (39:40).

The main event was an Old Generation Vs New Generation elimination match with a twist. The match started off as FUMA & Mio Shirai Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Seiya Morohashi in a tag team match. When a wrestler gets eliminated one of the remaining two wrestlers on the team would take their place. The match would continue to be two versus two until the numbers whittled down. There were already problems on the New Gen team when Shirai said she didn’t like FUMA’s battle plan and would use her own strategy instead. Despite being on a different page, they scored first blood when FUMA pinned Morohashi. Cherry came in for the Old Gen team. Shirai’s strategy of wearing down Ishikawa backfired when he escaped her Hanging Headscissors over the rope and knocked her out of the ring for the Ring Out. SAGAT came in and proved to be a good pick when he eliminated Cherry. Isami Kodaka entered the match and Ishikawa evened the odds by eliminating SAGAT. Daichi Kazato arrived and the match was down to the final four wrestlers. Ishikawa attempted to eliminated Kazato in more ways than one with the Fire Thunder onto the apron. But Kazato fought out of the move and did a Huracanrana that eliminated both of them from the match. The match came down to FUMA and Kodaka as the two UWA World Tag Team Champions fought each other. FUMA kicked out of a German Suplex at 1 and went for the Jawbreaker but Kodaka dodged and hit the Isamuashi Zan kick for the win. After the match Kodaka said he wasn’t going to lose to the New Generation.

Hiroshi Fukuda appeared at the end to announce his injury has healed and he will return to action on 28th January. I’m not sure if his planned stay in All Japan is still going to happen.

The first Union match of 2015 only lasted 16 seconds. Ryu Gouma was so embarrassed from tapping out so quickly to Goro Jr. that he demanded an immediate rematch. He used his powers as a lawyer to make it happen. He also made sure the rematch could only end by Pinfall. Goro put Gouma in an Armbar, a Sharpshooter and MMA style pound and ground. Gouma submitted to each move and pleaded for the match to end but it continued. When Gouma had a chance to get away he apologised for changing the rules and asked for submissions to count again. He tried to sneak attack Goro but was fought off and put in a Triangle Lancer. Gouma gave up again and even announced Goro as the winner as the bell rang for the match to end.
