BASARA “VAJRA 15 WU” Results

July 22, 2016

sekine-warns-hiroshi

BASARA “VAJRA 15 WU”, 20/07/2016
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum
92 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Hi69 & Daichi Kazato defeated Koji Iwamoto & Ryu Gouma when Hi69 pinned Gouma with a School Boy (11:19).
2. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Yusuke Kubo with a Thrust Kick (11:41).
3. FUMA defeated SAGAT with the Heavy Metal Anthem (13:46)
4. MC.33 Comeback ~ Ultra Special Premium Deluxe Single Match: MC.33 defeated Atsushi Maruyama with the Buzzsaw Kick (15:57).
5. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu when Oosugi pinned Nakatsu with the Tsukinoishi (16:48).

Ryuichi Sekine had some harsh words for Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi after the main event. Sekine isn’t happy that Hiroshi won the Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament last month. When they face off one on one next week Sekine says he will kick Hiroshi until he becomes the true Itadaki champion. Hiroshi wants to know why Sekine is so angry? Is he jealous of Hiroshi’s good looks? No, it’s because Hiroshi is at the highest level in the world and is BASARA’s strongest foreigner!

With Isami Kodaka absent from the show, the masked wrestler MC.33 took his place for his first match in 10 years. MC.33 kept yelling “YO!” as he wrestled with Atsushi Maruyama. He then interrupted the match and challenged Maruyama to a wrestling theme song guessing game. Maruyama took the challenge but attacked MC.33 when he was losing the game. At one point Maruyama kicked MC.33 below the belt. That caused MC.33 to kick the referee below the belt by accident. MC.33 told Maruyama he really wanted to win the match and convinced him to take his moves. Maruyama then apologised every time he kicked out of a pin. MC.33 finally won when he made Maruyama flinch and then Buzzsaw Kicked him when his guard was down.

The Kotetsu Gundan Vs Tsukasaga Army series ended 1-1. Takumi Tsukamoto beat Yusuke Kubo but FUMA defeated SAGAT afterwards. FUMA continued to attack SAGAT after their match and a brawl between the two teams broke out. They will face off in a Hardcore Tag Match in Shin-Kiba next week. SAGAT now wants the Hardcore Match to provide Chains for them to use. During their time together in King Legion back in Union both FUMA and SAGAT attacked their opponents with chains.

Kodaka Vs Mike Bailey will take place on the 1st August Tavern Wrestling show. Also happening on 3rd August is the first ever Fluorescent Light IPPON Grand Prix four man tournament.


Iron Man Update, MC.33 Coming To BASARA, Ganbare Prepares For Korakuen

July 13, 2016

Time for an update on the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title’s tour of America. When we last left the belt it was being held by Ricochet, you know the guy from that gif? No, not the English fella the other one. Yeah him. Since then the title lineage went like this: Brian Metz, Matt Striker, Cheerleader Melissa (by massage), Matt Cross (via too much food), Brian Cage, Joey Ryan, Laura James (as burlesque luchadora Alacrana Plata #2), Buggy Nova (in a proper wrestling match!), Ryan again (not in a proper wrestling match), Scarlett Bordeaux, Rhyno (traded an autograph for the title) and now Robbie E (his win counts as a Ladder Match). Last one is interesting because it’s a TNA guy beating someone who just appeared on an NXT broadcast. So yeah, this championship of all things is now providing the inter-promotional competition some fans have craved for years.

4. Yukihiro Abe Tomodachi-gun Graduation Test: Minoru Fujita Vs Yukihiro Abe
5. Ganpuro Hardcore Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Ai Shimizu Vs Yumehito Imanari & Bambi

Ken Ohka is continuing his hard work to make Ganbare☆Wrestling’s Korakuen Hall debut a success. Ideas include different seating layouts including a reserved seat placed inside the ring for the entire show. Ohka was told this was done recently by Kuishinbo Kamen at Shin-Kiba 1st RING but he is not deterred by that. Ohka has hundreds of ideas like having chairs placed in the arena balconies. He thinks they can fill thousands more people that way.

It seems that Yumehito Imanari and Bambi have sorted out their problems and are willing to team together. Imanari is thrilled by this news. This Hardcore match is put together to show Osaka what Ganpuro is all about. Each wrestler will have a weapon with them for the match. Bambi has her whip and Imanari is bringing a lot of candy.

Ohka stormed a Gatoh Move show in Ichigaya earlier this week requesting Emi Sakura to wrestle for Ganpuro in August. Sakura was offended by Ohka’s attitude and turned down the offer. However Sayaka Obihiro took up the offer instead. Ohka wants to make sure Obihiro will be a good enough replacement by putting her in a tryout match at the end of the month.

Mitomi Masayuki is becoming obsessed over Mars Spector. He wants to avenge Shibata’s loss to Spector and is determined to fight him again and again and again until he wins. His stablemate Rainbow Kawamura offered to help. An enemy of Enjo-gun is his enemy too.


Ganbare Books Korakuen, Isami Goes MC.33 Returns, Hiroshi Funds U.S.A

July 8, 2016

ganbare-korakuen

After an intense period of negotiations Ganbare☆Wrestling will soon hold its first show in Korakuen Hall this October! Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari yesterday streamed live on Nico Douga their meeting with the Korakuen manager to book their show. Ohka originally wanted to hold the show on a Sunday but was told every Sunday is booked out for the rest of the year. He was offered Noon on a Saturday but Ohka begged and pleaded with the manager to find him a Sunday spot. The manager discovered there was a cancellation for 2nd October so that day became available. Ohka handed over 500,000 yen to pay for the deposit but was told he was 50,000 yen short. Imanari had another 20,000 and they eventually convinced the reporter and photographer who accompanied them to cough up the remaining cash. That was enough to confirm the spot, noon on 2nd October!

BASARA “VAJRA 15 WU”, 20/07/2016
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum

1. FUMA Vs SAGAT
2. Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Yusuke Kubo
3. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu

Isami Kodaka made an unexpected decision to pull himself from this show. He has decided to take some time off after failing to win the Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament. Taking his place is a blast from the past, MC.33 (pronounced MC Sammy). This is a masked wrestler who appeared on the CRUSIER’S GAME brand during the mid-2000s. Kodaka describes him as a legend and is excited to see him in BASARA.

Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi is using his prize winnings from Heaven Summit to fund the return of U.S.A. The brand will takeover one of the Tavern Wrestling tripleshot shows at the beginning of August, specifically the show held on 2nd August.

BASARA “VAJRA 16 ~FLAWLESS~”, 28/07/2016
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Ryuichi Sekine
2. Hardcore Match: Yusuke Kubo Vs SAGAT
3. Hardcore Match: FUMA & Takumi Tsukamoto

The feud between Tsukasaga Army and Kotetsu Gundan continues with several singles matches between the two sides. In Saitama it is just regular singles matches but afterwards in Shin-Kiba the matches will become Hardcore.

Ryuichi Sekine now has Hiroshi in his sights. Sekine wants to be the ace of BASARA so obviously the Heaven Summit winner and conqueror of Isami Kodaka is his next target.


BASARA “VAJRA 15 ~50 HUMAN YEARS~” Results

July 3, 2016

basara-vajra50

BASARA “VAJRA 15 ~50 HUMAN YEARS~”, 03/07/2016
Chikusa Culture Small Theater
186 Fans

1. Kazuhiro Tamura defeated Daichi Kazato with the Andre (12:09).
2. Best Phantom Consultation!: The Intelligent Sensational Grand Passion Mask No. 4 defeated Ryu Gouma with the Chingemaker (6:43).
3. Tsukasaga Army Vs Kotetsu Gundan: FUMA & Yusuke Kubo defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & SAGAT by TKO when Kubo knocked out SAGAT with the Snake Setsunawa (14:02).
4. Michio Kageyama, Makoto Hasuka & Hi69 defeated Ryuichi Sekine, Ryota Nakatsu & Koji Iwamoto when Hi69 pinned Nakatsu with the Stuka Splash (19:14).
5. Isami Kodaka & Masamune defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shinya Ishida when Kodaka pinned Ishida with the Zeyyari (21:24).

The result of Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament still stings for Isami Kodaka. He and Masamune refused to shake hands with Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shinya Ishida before the main event. Hiroshi kept rallying the fans by getting them to chant his new name. Fukuda countered Kodaka’s Isamuashi Zan with a Spinebuster but was taken out by Masamune’s WA4. Masamune and Fukuda then wore out Ishida until he couldn’t take anymore. Kodaka shook hands with Masamune afterwards and they promoted Masamune’s show on 14th August. Hiroshi said his birthday is on 15th August, the day America beat Japan in World War 2! Masamune said his birthday just so happens to be on 16th August. Kodaka was surprised by this revelation then went back to arguing with Hiroshi.

Yusuke Kubo used a Choke Sleeper with his legs wrapped around SAGAT’s body to choke him out in Match #3. He wove goodbye to SAGAT as he was helped out of the ring and then joined FUMA to brag about their victory in front of Takumi Tsukamoto. FUMA said they’re on the road straight to Heavy Metal Wrestling. Kubo said their group will become invincible!

Ryu Gouma was all ready and prepared to take on Konaka = Pehlwan when there was suddenly an announcement about Konoka being unable to appear because of otitis media. A masked man dressed completely in orange walked out and declared himself as Konoka’s replacement. He is called The Intelligent Sensational Grand Passion Mask No. 4 and his finisher the Chingemaker involves grabbing the opponent by the crotch and Clotheslining him. Kyohei Wada disallowed the move until Passion explained it was his deathblow. Wada then allowed it. A defeated Gouma is now convinced a great evil has been unleashed upon BASARA. It is now his duty to stop this secret wrestler and bring him to justice!

perfectplex-itadaki

In an upset, Hiroshi Fukuda has won the first ever Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament! BASARA’s token American wrestler went against Isami Kodaka with 500,000 yen on the line. Fukuda led the crowd with “USA” chants but had an uphill battle. Kodaka gave him a Brainbuster on the floor and tried to win by countout. Fukuda barely made it back in time. The tables turned when Fukuda rolled away from a Diving Double Knee Drop. Fukuda then applied a Figure Four Leg Lock. Kodaka countered the Perfect Plex into a Reverse Double Armbar. Kodaka hit the Diving Double Knee Drop but Fukuda kicked out. He blocked the Zan Isamuashi and gave Kodaka the Perfect Plex but that also resulted in a nearfall. Kodaka hit the Zeyyari but Fukuda hit back with a Brack Drop. He did one more Perfect Plex and this was the one to put Kodaka away! Fukuda now stands on top of BASARA!

trans-am-fukuda-wins

Exhausted after the main event, Kodaka presented Fukuda with the cash prize. Kodaka then announced BASARA will run Korakuen Hall for the first time on 25th December! Fukuda said the bruises covering his body from his match with Daisuke Sekimoto at the first BASARA show were all good for something. He then revealed today is the last day he is Hiroshi Fukuda. From now on he is Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi! He has climbed to the world’s highest level to become BASARA’s strongest foreigner!

tsukamoto-sagat

SAGAT is becoming a changed man after his experience in Heaven Summit. His face paint is gone, his long hair is now cut into a mohawk and he now wears a one strap singlet under his usual wrestling gear. His progression continued when he got the win in a Hardcore 6-Man Tag Team Match. SAGAT shook Takumi Tsukamoto’s hand after the match and told him he felt lost until he met him. He was so anxious that he couldn’t speak until now. He thanks Tsukamoto for helping him.

cavalry-ueki

The trio of Takayuki Ueki and the Brahman Brothers pulled off a cheap shot on Cavalry when they attacked during a handshake at the start of Match #4. They placed a suitcase in between Ryota Nakatsu’s legs and threw a bowling ball into it. Ueki pulled out his gun but Ryuichi Sekine kicked it out of his hands. Ueki got the gun again and tried to take Cavalry’s stick horses captive. They were rescued and Ueki lost his nerve, begging for forgiveness. Sekine instead gave him the Ryusetsu kick to win the match.

masamune-kazato

Masamune gave credit to Daichi Kazato for hitting him with a good Axe Bomber.

maruyama-chop

Ryu Gouma has been paying attention to the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changes in America that have been appearing on Twitter and Youtube throughout the week. By the time this show took place Kikutaro was the last known champion. So obviously Gouma’s goal was to beat Kikutaro in the 3 Way match and become the new champion. He tried to hit Kikutaro with his statute book but the referee stopped him. What followed was Gouma and the ref both grabbing the book and pulling it away from each other. It ended with the ref accidentally whacking Kikutaro in the head with the book, knocking him out. Atsushi Maruyama then Chopped Gouma in the back of the neck. Gouma fell on top of Kikutaro and Maruyama jumped on top of them for the three count. However the referee ruled that Gouma pinned Kikutaro so he was the winner! Gouma celebrated and asked where the title was. Kikutaro had to explain that he lost the championship to someone else in America before coming home and the video hadn’t been posted online yet.

puroresuman-unmasked

Puroresu Mask Man entered the ring to The Great Sasuke’s “Separados” theme song. He mimicked the moves of Ultimo Dragon and Tiger Mask. However he was left vulnerable when Tsutomu Oosugi unmasked him during a Hurricanrana attempt. Oosugi capitalised and pinned a distracted Choun-Shiryu.

Mizuki Watase has finally found a suitable choice for Makoto Oishi’s partner in the Stockholm Style Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Death Match. He originally wanted it to be Oishi’s ex-wife but that plan fell through. Instead he found Batten Burabura, a comedy wrestler who has wrestled for DDT in the past as Batten Tamagawa. The winner of the match needs to kiss their partner for 5 seconds. Watase intentionally picked Burabura so Oishi will have to kiss his ugly, rashed face if he wants to win.

Tokyo Joshi Pro with a little help from BASARA held two outdoor shows at Yokodai Station. There was also a wrestling exercise class held for children before both shows.

Since the show was in Kanagawa, Marika Kobashi got to headline both shows as the hometown girl. She said she became interested in wrestling when she saw a Big Japan show in a nearby shopping district. Today was a dream come true for her. Although she lost the main event in Part 1, she redeemed herself by getting a submission victory in Part 2.

The winner of every match received a box of goods from shops in the area. Nothing fancy, just stuff like boxes of bottled water, soda drinks or fruits and vegetables. Yusuke Kubo and Daichi Kazato had to share their prize of cola cans when they fought to a draw.

Nonoko was originally supposed to wrestle KANNA in Part 2 but was too ill to compete. Nodoka Onee-san took her place.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title tour of America moved to Des Moines, Iowa last night where Joey Ryan defended the title against Colt Cabana and Chuck Taylor for F1RST Wrestling. Chuck Taylor won the match to become the new champion but then Scott Hall showed up! Taylor got knocked out then Hall beat Ryan in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine who should pin Taylor. 2016 wrestling is weird.
