GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 7”, 17/10/2014
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum
75 Fans

1. URRC Special Tag Match: Hamuko Hoshi & Kurumi defeated Aoi Ishibashi & Manami Koda when Kurumi pinned Koda with a Diving Body Press (8:20).
2. Special Recruit Match: Yuji Kito defeated Tiger Bed Scene with the BALS (11:40).
3. Mr. Showtime Is Back!! Shota Ganbare☆Wrestling Comeback: Shota Vs Madoka ended in a Double Pin Draw (8:54).
4. No DQ Match: Chikara & Yumehito Imanari defeated Mitomi Masayuki & Tomoya Kawamura when Imanari pinned Kawamura with the Headlock Driver (13:23).
5. This Is Ganbare☆Pro-Wrestling: Osamu Namiguchi defeated Ken Ohka with the Lanakila-X (11:56).

Even though they teamed together to face common enemies, Ken Ohka and Osamu Namiguchi became enemies once more. Namiguchi blocked the Spear Of Fire and won with the Lanakila-X. After the match Namiguchi called Ohka a dickward but promised they would have another match again in the future. Their moment was interrupted when Mitomi Masayuki ran into the ring with a chair and attacked both men. The returning Shota came to the rescue but the used the chair on Ohka! When Shota left, Ohka was reduced to tears by the betrayal until Namiguchi slapped some sense into him.

A No DQ match was a necessary stipulation for Power Of Dreams Vs Union Sekigun. The two teams fought to a no contest a month ago and had to be pulled apart. Chairs and chains caused blood to be spilled. Chikara was very effective with his chopping attacks, even using the move to smack the chair into his opponents while they held it. Yumehito Imanari could not contain his joy after he pinned Tomoya Kawamura with the Headlock Driver. He told the Union wrestlers that Ganpuro is a magnetic field that keeps drawing them in and he will be in the ring waiting for them.

The injured Hong Kong International Police Man appeared to explain why he was unable to wrestle today. He came to Japan wanting to show off the Hong Kong police force but he injured himself while chasing a criminal. When he caught up to the criminal he tried to Brainbuster him but it was reversed, causing the injury. He apologised but his hat and sunglasses suddenly fell off as he bowed. Police Man was revealed to be Atsushi Maruyama, master of disguise! Maruyama apologised like he always does and said he will never return, like he always does.

A blunder from Shota ruined his comeback match. He had Madoka pinned with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch but his shoulders were also touching the canvas. The ref counted the pin for both wrestlers and as a result it was a draw.

Yumehito Imanari was excited to introduce the Ultimate Reverse RIZAP Championship, an idol project for chubby joshi wrestlers. He came up with the idea two months ago because he thinks advertisements for diets like RIZAP which show skinny women are all a “cock and ball story” and he wants to support women to be who they want to be. He was impressed with the tag team match involving the four participants, now it was time to find an ace for the project. Aoi Ishibashi and Kurumi both rejected his request. Ishibashi thought it was tasteless and Kurumi said she is just going through a growth phase. Hamuko Hoshi accepted because she wanted to be a proud role model for her child. But Imanari turned her down because he didn’t know she was married and he doesn’t want married women to be involved. All that was left was the woman who lost the match, Manami Koda. Imanari told her she had potential and would get another opportunity at the next event, this time against a male wrestler.

Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Tiger Bed Scene was announced for 16th November.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 7”, 17/10/2014
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum

1. URRC Special Tag Match: Aoi Ishibashi & Manami Koda Vs Hamuko Hoshi & Kurumi
2. Shota Ganbare☆Wrestling Comeback: Shota Vs Madoka
3. Special Recruit Match: Tiger Bed Scene Vs Yuji Kito
4. No DQ Match: Chikara & Yumehito Imanari Vs Mitomi Masayuki & Tomoya Kawamura
5. This Is Ganbare☆Pro-Wrestling: Ken Ohka Vs Osamu Namiguchi

URRC stands for Ultimate Reverse RIZAP Championship and is inspired by the RIZAP exercise program. The URRC was created by Yumehito Imanari to cheer on female wrestlers who are not confident in the ring. Imanari used Wikipedia to look up the weight and height of each joshi wrestler competing in the match. He then seperated each woman into a different weight class. Aoi Ishibashi (160cm/62kg) is a Welterweight, Manami Koda (152cm/62kg) is a Cruiserweight, Hamuko Hoshi (161cm/60kg) is a Middleweight and Kurumi (150cm/60kg) is a Heavyweight. How this is supposed to make them feel better, I don’t know.

Hong Kong International Police Man has suffered a neck injury and will not be able to wrestle on the show. He might not even appear at all because of it.

1. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Soma Takao

5. Yuji Kito & Yoshihiro Horaguchi defeated Ken Ohka & Tiger Bed Scene when Kito pinned Scene with a Small Package (11:42).

Wrestling New Classic pair Yuji Kito & Yoshihiro Horaguchi threw out the challenge to Ganbare☆Wrestling for a match. Ken Ohka & Tiger Bed Scene answered the call but they were in for a fight. Kito & Horaguchi attacked the Ganpuro team as they were making their entrance. The home team could just never get the better of their opponents and were defeated. After the match Ohka said he worked hard and he’ll never become good if he doesn’t work hard. He doesn’t feel bad about losing and promised the fans he will do his best.

GENTARO defeated the masked Backstage Thief Man, who everyone thought was Atsushi Maruyama in another one of his disguises. GENTARO unmasked the thief after the match and to everyone’s surprise, it was actually Survival Tobita! He explained that there was so much talent coming into Ganpuro that he was no longer being booked there. He was inspired by Maruyama’s schemes to do the same so he came up with Backstage Thief Man. Now that he is caught, he just wants to be left alone.

Power Of Dreams got their rematch against the Union Sekigun and it was even more heated than the last time. Mitomi Masayuki & Tomoya Kawamura used a chair to their advantage to win but the fighting continued after the bell. The Union team eventually retreated and Ohka announced that Chikara will face Masayuki in Chofu on 28th September.

When the show was over several of the Ganpuro wrestlers took part in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge outside the venue.

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.
