    Takashi Sasaki VS Makoto Oishi</p><p> </p><p>

    Coming off of a big win over the BJW Deathmatch champion and declaring himself as the next challenger to Ryuji Ito’s belt, Takashi Sasaki gets what for many would still be a tough challenge against K-Dojo standout Makoto Oishi!</p><p> </p><p>

    The challenge is no match for him, however, as after nine minutes of wrestling action in Shin-Kiba, Sasaki picks up the win following a big lariat to Oishi! No handshake is extended after the match, Sasaki simply leaving the ring to head to the back. Oishi gives a quick bow to the crowd before heading to the back.</p><p> </p><p>

    Banana Senga VS Dragon Yuki</p><p> </p><p>

    This match marks the debut of KAGEKI standout Dragon Yuki, who has come to Big Japan, in his words, with hopes of truly flourishing a Junior division to add layers to what he considers an already great company! The question is, can he overcome the already established Banana Senga? </p><p> </p><p>

    He can, but not by much! Six full minutes of fast-paced, hard hitting action is stopped by a very sudden Sunset Flip pinfall by Dragon Yuki that wins him the match in shocking fashion! Banana Senga cannot believe what has just happened, pleading with the referee that it was only a two count, but he cannot be dissuaded. Yuki extends a hand to Senga, but it gets slapped by the latter! Could this mean a rematch soon?</p><p> </p><p>

    Onryo, X, and X VS MEN’s Teioh, Shinobu, and Yusaku Obata</p><p> </p><p>

    Onryo’s two mystery partners would not have to remain in the shadows for much longer, as two masked men known as Yurei #1 and Yurei #2 would come out! The two men would linger slowly to the ring, almost ghost like in their movements - until the bell rang. After that, the two men immediately rushed after MEN’s Teioh and Shinobu, who were on the ropes to begin the match. Onryo would then take his time toying with Yusaku Obata, albeit almost being stopped by a MEN’s Teioh save, before pinning him in around four minutes to get his team the win.</p><p> </p><p>

    After this, Onryo would laugh maniacally in the ring reminding the opposing team about what he stated at the Korakuen show as they sulked to the back. Onryo would pose with his team for pictures before heading to the back.</p><p> </p><p>

    Apache Pro Army (Mammoth Sasaki, Tetsuhiro Kuroda, and GENTARO) VS Daisuke Sekimoto, Yoshihito Sasaki, and Hi69</p><p> </p><p>

    After going to their absolute limit with one another at Big Japan’s second Korakuen Hall show of the year, Sasaki and Sekimoto square-up again here in First-RING with their partners + one more by their side! Mammoth has officially chosen Tetsuhiro as his partner to face off with Sekimoto and Yoshihito Sasaki for the Big Japan tag titles, along with GENTARO to round out their team. The Big Japan Tag Team Champions have brought in indie stand-out Hi69 to round out their team and add another to this seemingly guerilla junior division!</p><p> </p><p>

    In the end, it’s the Big Japan Tag Champions getting the win after 11 minutes of, mostly, in-ring action between the six! Daisuke Sekimoto would get the pin on one of Apache Pro’s newest members in GENTARO following an Everest German Suplex. The six men would verbally lock horns after the match before heading to the back.</p><p> </p><p>

    Abdullah Kobayashi and Jaki Numazawa VS The W*INGER and Isami Kodaka</p><p> </p><p>

    In this hardcore match we see Numazawa square up with the man he almost came to blows with in Korakuen Hall, The W*INGER! Numazawa is paired with BJW legend Abdullah Kobayashi, and W*INGER with young BJW standout Isami Kodaka! Will this sparring match-up help the two settle their differences, or will this match only further the hate between the two men?</p><p> </p><p>

    The answer to that question is no, no it will not. To end the match, Abdullah Kobayashi would hit a standing Kokeshi on Isami Kodaka before taking himself and a chair up to the top rope to hit him with a chair-assisted diving elbow drop! All the while, W*INGER and Numazawa were deep into the Shin-Kiba crowd throwing each other into chairs, walls, and anything else they could find, paying no mind to the match even after the bell rang. Needless to say, this is not going to be an easy rivalry to squash between the two.</p><p> </p><p>

    Ryuji Ito and Shadow WX VS Kintaro Kanemura and Yuko Miyamoto</p><p> </p><p>

    And in your main event, the team of Ryuji Ito and Shadow WX look to bounce back from their loss against the team of Takashi Sasaki and Yuko Miyamoto. This won’t be an easy task, however, as on their opposing side are Yuko Miyamoto who looks to be more and more promising with each passing event, and the man who openly challenged long-time rival Ryuji Ito for his championship, Apache Pro leader Kintaro Kanemura. Would Ito finally get his revenge on the two and swing some momentum in his corner? Not quite.</p><p> </p><p>

    After a grueling match between all parties, Yuko looked to end the match once and for all. Gathering the remaining two barbed wire boards that had not been broken, he body slammed Shadow WX onto one, and then placed the other on top of him. After ascending to the top rope and fighting off Deathmatch Champion Ryuji Ito with a little help from Kintaro, Yuko would hit a beautiful moonsault onto the boards and pin Shadow WX for the 1-2-3! This would now make the third time that Yuko Miyamoto would get a win over Ito and someone else.</p><p> </p><p>

    Winners: Kintaro Kanemura and Yuko Miyamoto</p><p> </p><p>

    Rating: 58</p><p> </p><p>

    Yuko Miyamoto wasn’t done, however. “Takashi Sasaki, partner, get out here.” Takashi Sasaki would march to the ring looking quite confused on why he was getting called out. “In Korakuen, you told me that you were ready to fight Ryuji Ito after Kintaro Kanemura. Personally, I find that to be bullshit.” He says, stepping up closer to him now. “I’ve proved tonight that I can also win, something that has been known for a while, and would like to challenge you yourself to a match for the contendership spot you’re proclaiming to be in. Deal, or no deal, Sasaki?”</p><p> </p><p>

    Sasaki stands for a minute, before answering: “Deal.” The mentor and student shake hands before exiting the ring to close what was certainly an exciting night of action!</p><p> </p><p>

    Match #1:

     

    Yusaku Obata VS Katsumasa Inoue

     

    Since joining Big Japan full-time this past year, Yusaku Obata has yet to accomplish anything massive within the company. Likewise, despite joining the company in early 2001, Katsumasa Inoue also has not been able to accomplish much in his now 7 years with the company. This match could certainly give a boost to either of these competitors being in Japan’s most prestigious pro-wrestling venue: Korakuen Hall!

     

    In the end, one man would come out on top: the veteran Katsumasa Inoue. A nasty Tiger Suplex to Yusaku Obata would be what finally ended the match after 8 minutes of alright action. The two would shake hands after the match before heading to the back, Obata looking quite hurt from the move.

    Match #2:

     

    Ryuji Yamakawa and Makoto Oishi VS The Brahman Brothers (Shu and Kei Sato)

     

    “Mr. Big Japan” Ryuji Yamakawa and K-Dojo mainstay Makoto Oishi would certainly have no easy task tonight in taking down Shu and Kei Sato, The Brahman Brothers. Making their first appearance in Big Japan Pro Wrestling since 2006, the two would look a tad bit different. Now more weapon-crazed than ever before as apart of the Hell Demons stable, the two fit right at home in Big Japan! They would come to the ring with a wagon full of weapons - effective or not - and immediately lay right into Oishi and Yamakawa with a barrage of rights and lefts to begin the match!

     

    After a decent brawl around the ringside area of Korakuen Hall, the match would proceed as a semi-normal wrestling match that would devolve into brawls every now and again. The match would finally end after both Shu Sato and Kei Sato would put a metal covering around their forearm and elbow and proceed to hit a double clothesline on Makoto Oishi! Not long after Shu would hit Yamakawa with one to keep him from getting back involved with the match-up. Finally, to end the onslaught on Oishi, the two would go up to adjacent turnbuckles and perform what they call the Murder Ride Show where the two men dive at the same time, one performing a crossbody and the other performing a leg-drop. After nine minutes of action, this would be what put Makoto and Mr. Big Japan away!

    Match #3:

     

    MEN’s Teioh, Shinobu, and Banana Senga VS Onryo, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, and Michael Nakazawa

     

    This past month has been quite a doozy for one Onryo. First, the Wrestling Ghost would be resurrected at a 2007 666 show, and would begin wrestling under a mask with the name Wolf Ozawa. However, at the first Big Japan show of 2007, Onryo would surprise everyone and be the mystery partner to round out the team of Tomomitsu Matsunaga and Michael Nakazawa. Then the question remained: who was under the Wolf Ozawa mask teaming with MEN’s and Makoto Oishi. It would turn out to be none other than the former Anti-MEN’s Club member Shinobu! Seemingly now friends with MEN’s Teioh, we see a close-to-rematch of their first encounter with Onryo and company from January of this year.

     

    Tomomitsu and Nakazawa would both give it their all within the match for their leader of sorts Onryo, but in the end they would not be able to overcome the more experienced team of MEN’s Teioh and Shinobu, as well as upstart Banana Senga who would use his early experience as a part of Toryumon Mexico to deliver a hurricanrana to Tomomitsu Matsunaga, and let Shinobu deliver a Shooting Star Press to give his team the 1-2-3 victory in Korakuen Hall!

     

    Winners:

    MEN’s Teioh, Shinobu, and Banana Senga

     

    Rating: 27

     

    After the match, Onryo would call for a microphone outside of the ring. Looking quite angry about another loss in the past month or so now, he would yell at his current teammates to go to the back before focusing on the three men in the ring. “Teioh, Shinobu! I’m through with these defeats at your hands.” he says emphatically. “February 22nd, I’m bringing two allies from beyond the grave, who I promise will beat you senseless! Bring whoever you want along as a partner, because it won’t matter: My spirits will be high, and yours will be low.”

     

    With that message being sent loud and clear, Onryo drops his microphone and heads to the back. Who will these two mystery partners be? Will they truly be from beyond the grave? The only way to find out is to come to Shin-Kiba First Ring on February 22nd!

     

    Rating: 30

     

    Other notes:

    MEN’s Teioh would debut a new hope spot with his tag partners, making the crowd go wild to see him get the hot tag! In less happy news, Shinobu looked visibly sick after his shooting star press, being quite absent in the post-match promo delivered by Onryo. Fighting TV Samurai announcers Ken Suzuki and Haruo Murata would later update us that Shinobu told management backstage he thought he had gotten food poisoning from something he ate the previous day, but that he should be alright in the coming days.</div>

    Match #4:

     

    Apache Pro Army (Kintaro Kanemura, Tetsuhiro Kuroda, and GENTARO) VS Jaki Numazawa, The W*INGER, and Hiroyuki Kondo

     

    This match is a heated one, with the always hated Apache Pro Army taking on the loyalists of Big Japan Pro Wrestling in Jaki, Winger, and Kondo. Kintaro Kanemura has been around since the early days of W*ING before eventually jumping ship to FMW in the mid-90s. After the collapse of FMW, Kintaro would compete in various revivals and promote various companies before sticking to where he is now: Apache Pro. Tetsuhiro Kuroda has also been around for quite some time, making his FMW debut in 1993 and following Kanemura on his journey of sorts. Although he has competed in fewer deathmatches than a Kanemura or an Onita, he has proved he can hold his own over the years, including in various 8-man barbed wire tag team matches that also included Atsushi Onita. GENTARO is the newest of the bunch, debuting with DDT in 1999 during the company’s infancy. Although the newest to the deathmatch scene, GENTARO has picked up the style quickly and can go with just about anyone.

     

    Although Jaki Numazawa is normally someone who will fight against Big Japan’s main unit, the big man seems to have mellowed out a bit with 045 Junkies partner Jun Kasai out due to personal issues. Despite this, there’s still noted animosity between himself and tag partner The W*INGER. The two faced each other back in late 2007 during an Apache Pro show, in which Jaki would pin W*INGER. However, the two looked to set aside their differences, and Jaki would look to prove he’s a changed man.

     

    The match would go full octane almost instantly as the Apache Pro members wouldn’t even let our ring announcer complete his introduction of the Big Japan team. What bastards. The brawl spills out all around Korakuen Hall. Chairs get thrown around in the crowd, bodies hit concrete, GENTARO even makes a small dive off of the ring apron that takes out a few audience members! After a solid five minutes of brawling around the prestigious arena, the action finally makes its way back into the ring. Lucha tag rules are in effect, meaning that if one team member is thrown out of the ring another can take his or her place without a tag needing to be made. This makes for more wild brawling as W*INGER and Kuroda throwing one another over the top rope leads to Jaki running straight into a vicious chair-shot from Kintaro Kanemura!

     

     

    To end the match, W*INGER is finally alone in the ring with Kanemura with the other four men brawling amongst each other on the outside. Kanemura gets W*INGER up to his feet following a German Suplex, looking to go in for the kill. Suddenly, Jaki runs into the ring with a stray light tube (potentially stolen from the main-event supply. We never said Jaki was moral.) with his sights set on Kanemura. But at the last second, Kanemura ducks and Jaki smashes W*INGER over the head with the lighttube! Kuroda is push Jaki out of the ring and make sure no one else gets in the way as Kintaro goes up to the top rope and hits Blast Yama Special (senton) on W*INGER to secure the win for his team in 13 minutes of wild and fun Korakuen action!

     

    Winners:

    Apache Pro Army (Kintaro Kanemura, Tetsuhiro Kuroda, GENTARO)

    After the match is over Jaki goes over to W*INGER looking to apologize to him, but is met with a bunch of static: W*INGER yells at him, prompting Jaki to yell back and forcing Kondo to attempt to break the two up. The duty of breaking up the argument would be taken over by the Apache Pro Army, however, as the three men would kick the BJW homebodies out of the ring and call for a microphone.

     

    “About ****ing time you give me the microphone!” Kanemura yells out towards the ring-crew. “About right for a company like this..” He says, the few Apache Pro fans in the crowd cheering for the three. “Let me get straight to the point; back in 2003 I won this companies Deathmatch title, a title that one Ryuji Ito now holds. He defeated me for that title to end my reign. Now he’s come a long way, and I only have one thing to say to him: Ryuji Ito! I’m coming for your belt, and I’m coming to destroy the company you proudly lead from the inside out! Long live Apache Pro!”

     

    Kanemura drops the microphone and rolls out with his gang, mocking a few of the BJW faithful fans in the crowd on his way out. What a disgusting little man.

    Match #5 ~ WEW Heavyweight Championship:

     

    Mammoth Sasaki © VS Daisuke Sekimoto

     

    Now moving on from the wild brawl that was Apache Pro VS BJW, we get into what should be a hard-hitting heavyweight match-up between two of the best doing it on the indies today: Apache Pro’s Mammoth Sasaki VS Daisuke Sekimoto for the WEW Heavyweight championship. Daisuke Sekimoto has been with BJW since his in-ring debut in 1999 and has done it all for the company. Currently he is one half of the BJW Tag Team champions with Yoshihito Sasaki, making this his third reign with the belt, a former BJW Heavyweight champion, ZERO1 United National champion, and one half of the WEW Extreme Tag Team champions with MEN’s Teioh. Needless to say, Sekimoto has accomplished a lot in his relatively short career.

     

    But that shouldn’t count out Mammoth Sasaki, who has been going even longer than Sekimoto has. Starting in 1997 with FMW, Mammoth Sasaki lives up to his name at 6’2, towering over many competitors including the 5’9 Daisuke Sekimoto. So far Mammoth has had a solid reign, already defending against Jun Kasai in a Four Corners of Glass Deathmatch, and Tetsuhiro Kuroda. Will Daisuke Sekimoto be able to out-do him tonight, or will Mammoth continue to reign? Let’s find out!

     

    The two waste no time in going after one another, attempting to knock each other down right after the bell rings. Daisuke is finally able to get the first blow in on Mammoth, knocking him right on his ass! The crowd cheers that their man was able to take down the Mammoth! Daisuke wastes no time in getting right back on him, however, as he hits the ropes but misses a kick towards the chest of Mammoth. Instead, Mammoth grabs hold of his leg and yanks him down towards the mat and begins a small amount of mat-wrestling with the smaller man. Daisuke eventually breaks free of it and Mammoth looks to be a tad bit frustrated that nothing he has tried has worked. He tries again to wrestle with Sekimoto, but he finally gives in and gets in a cheap eye-poke on the BJW veteran to escape the hold.

     

    After this, Sasaki exits the ring and calls for someone to stand up. This allows him to not only get a chair, but steal a seat from a paying customer. Again, what a bastard. He rolls into the ring to attack Daisuke with the chair but gets it knocked out of his hands and is hit with a barrage of right and left hands! Daisuke hits the ropes once again but Mammoth shows off some surprising agility as he grabs the chair once more and smacks Daisuke right in the head! Now with momentum on his side, Mammoth continues to beat down Sekimoto over the next little bit.

     

    Things turn sour for Mammoth close to the eight minute mark however. Sasaki pulls a table out by ringside, evidently wanting to put Sekimoto away for good. After rolling the beaten and glazy-eyed challenger out of the ring and onto the table, Mammoth begins his ascent up to the top rope. He climbs, he dives… He crashes through the table! Daisuke Sekimoto moved at the last minute and saved himself from losing this important title match! The two men would come back into the ring soon after - Sekimoto leading Mammoth this time - and would nail him with a series of massive chops in the middle of the ring! Things are looking up for Sekimoto who jumps up and hits a massive enziguri on the titan of a champion followed by a pinfall, but he only gets a 2-count.

     

    Sekimoto wants to end this and furthermore, Daisuke Sekimoto needs to end this match before Mammoth has even a small chance to come back. Daisuke once again picks up Mammoth, meeting his strikes tit for tat as he rises to his feet, setting him up for a powerbomb. But before he can lift Mammoth up onto his shoulders he’s backdropped onto the mat! A big turning point for Mammoth here as he tries to get the Apache Pro fans in the audience back into it for him! He would call for Sekimoto to get up before hitting him with one clothesline, then another clothesline as Sekimoto would pop right back up for both, before finally nailing him with a massive lariat!

     

    Sasaki would not wait to call him this time, but instead would pick up Sekimoto and nail him with the Mammoth Buster, a double underhook facebuster! Things would look sour for Sekimoto’s chances, and Sasaki would cover him… But only a one count?! Sekimoto bounces up, seemingly using his last bits of energy to kick out of the move and get back up, this time paying back Sasaki’s eye-poke from earlier with a nut-shot, allowing for Sekimoto to hit the powerbomb he tried earlier! Pinfall, 1, 2- Kick Out from Sasaki at the last second! Sekimoto cannot believe it, looking stunned towards the Korakuen faithful and the referee and pleading that it was a three count. Nothing more that he can do about it, however, so he gets back to his feet once again.

     

    This time, however, he eyes the chair that Sasaki used earlier in the match. Sekimoto sets it in the middle of the ring, and calls out to the crowd: “FIRE HAMMER!”. Sekimoto lifts Sasaki back up to his feet and shockingly gets him on his shoulders, setting up for the reverse death valley driver! But the weight and height of Sasaki is too much at this point in the match, and the big-man easily powers his way out of the hold. A few kicks to the side of Sekimoto and Saski has him on his shoulders - Mammoth Driver to Sekimoto! Sasaki isn’t done, he immediately picks him up for another, this time on the steel chair that Sekimoto had placed in the middle of the ring! 1

    Mammoth Sasaki retains in Korakuen Hall in a hellacious battle!

     

    Winner, and STILL WEW Heavyweight Champion: Mammoth Sasaki!

     

    Rating: 40

     

    Following this grueling, career-shortening battle, Mammoth Sasaki would call for a microphone.

    “Sekimoto. You’re a good challenger, but I proved tonight that I’m better.” Sasaki proclaims, “You challenged me for my belt, I’ll challenge you for yours. You and Yoshihito Sasaki versus me and a partner that I choose. Deal?”

    Sekimoto slowly raises to his feet and shakes hands with Mammoth, signifying that this match will be happening in the near future!

    Match #6 ~ Main Event ~ Fluorescent Light Tube Deathmatch!:

     

    BJW Deathmatch Champion Ryuji Ito and Shadow WX VS Takashi Sasaki and Yuko Miyamoto.

     

     

    What a main event this one should be. A combination of these four men have competed since January of this year, with various results. On 01.20, Ryuji Ito and Shadow WX, the team competing tonight, would defeat Jaki Numazawa and Yuko Miyamoto in a barbed wire board deathmatch, whereas on 01.27 Takashi Sasaki and Yuko Miyamoto, the other team competing tonight, would defeat Ryuji Ito and longtime rival and friend Abdullah Kobayashi in a 200 Fluorescent Lighttube Deathmatch. Needless to say, the record is mixed between these four to start, but should even out with the conclusion of this match!

     

    For those unfamiliar with death-matches, in this match all sets of ropes have light-tubes attached to the ropes that the wrestlers can pull off at will, as well as extra light tubes in boxes, or elsewhere if a wrestler has something planned. To start the match off are Yuko Miyamoto and champion Ryuji Ito. The two begin with some solid mat wrestling that neither man can win out on. Because of this, the two say ‘to hell with this’ and grab some light tubes from off of the ring ropes! Ito looks as though he wants to duel ‘swords’, so to speak, but Yuko has other ideas; he grabs another light-tube and smashes it over his head before nailing Ito with the other! The distraction worked completely how Yuko wanted it to.

     

    Ito was not going to let one little light-tube get him down however, rolling out of the way of another attempted swing by Yuko and nailing him with a shot of his own to the legs! Ito would attempt to slow the pace of the match down with a solid wrestling move: the patented stab to the forehead with the edge of a lighttube! This did slow Yuko down, now bleeding profusely out of his head. Sasaki would come into the ring to break up a second attempt at this however, and the match would continue on.

     

    Further into the match Shadow WX and Takashi Sasaki are tagged in. Whereas Yuko and Ito attempted to be saving with the light-tubes given to them, Shadow and Takashi were not. The two would immediately throw each other into adjacent sets of ropes, smashing the light-tubes and leaving a dreamy haze of white powder in the Korakuen air, much to the delight of the fans. From then on, Sasaki would jaw at Ito, and Yuko would jaw at Shadow WX. Eventually this method would hit a breaking point and the normally calm and collected Ryuji Ito would hit the ring and begin attacking Sasaki. This prompted Yuko to come into the ring to protect his partner, and finally, the second brawl around ringside of the night would take place. This brawl would be much less hectic than the Apache Pro brawl earlier in the night, but would do some considerable damage to all four men.

     

    To finish the match, Yuko Miyamoto would slide in a light-tube palate of sorts to his partner before knocking Ito off of the apron and fighting him on the outside. Sasaki, currently in the ring with Shadow WX, would set up the contraption in the center of the ring. He would take just a bit too long however as Shadow would get Sasaki up on his shoulders looking to set up his fireman’s carry into a cutter, the XYZ! This would be thwarted quickly however with Takashi Sasaki elbowing his way out of the move and hitting Shadow with the Bakyun! Kick, a massive jumping kick to the head of Shadow! He would quickly follow up by getting Shadow into a side-powerslam position, hitting a sit-out side powerslam known as D-Geist DIRECTLY ONTO THE LIGHTTUBE CONTRAPTION! The pinfall is made, and Ryuji slides back into the ring just a second too late to break up the pinfall!

     

    Winners: Takashi Sasaki and Yuko Miyamoto

    Takashi and Yuko would celebrate after the match before continuing to jaw-jack with the opposing team. Eventually all four men exit the ring and our night within Korakuen Hall concludes, leaving the clean-up crew to do their job! Before we sign off here on Samurai TV, however, we have a few post-match comments from the two teams that competed in the main event!</div>

    Shadow WX: “Damnit! We should’ve had that! I know that I can beat either of those two, I’ve already beaten one of them for god’s sake!”

     

    Ryuji Ito: “It’s disappointing that we lost, but that won’t deter us from coming back even stronger than we did tonight. Takashi Sasaki, Yuko Miyamoto, even Kintaro Kanemura, the three of you may come for this belt, but let one thing be known loud and clear: You’ll have to rip this belt from my cold, dead hands if you want it from me. See you at Shin-Kiba.”

     

    Takashi Sasaki: “This is the second time I’ve beaten one of your teams now, Ito! If anyone deserves the title shot it’s me, and me alone! The more you look at the other people, the more you deflect on what you know is coming: me winning back that Deathmatch Title you stole from me last year! Count your days and your blessings Ito, because I’m coming for the belt!.”

     

    Yuko doesn’t say anything, but does not look very happy at the comments his partner just made as they walk off.

     

    And that’s it! Samurai TV commentators Ken Suzuki and Haruo Murata run down the action that we saw tonight and talk briefly about what could happen next as we sign-off for a re-run of DDT’s recent Into The Fight event from January of this year!</div>

However, there are rumblings that owner The Great Kojika wants to broaden the appeal of the company to bring in more viewers.

     

    The company had already tried methods such as a Junior Title and a normal Heavyweight title in its infancy, so it would certainly be a risky gamble to attempt. But if there's anyone that can pull off a gamble, it's the man who built a house in Korakuen Hall and allowed his wrestlers to destroy it: The Great Kojika.

     

    This is Big Japan Pro Wrestling.

  10. FREEDOMS December 2020-October 2021

     

    Ruler of FREEDOMS Championship

    Masashi Takeda (3) - Week 4, December 2020 - Present

     

    Royalty of FREEDOMS Tag Championship

    Chris Dickinson and Steve Manders - Week 1, May 2021 - Present

     

    The Story of Masashi Takeda

     

    Takeda's reign began after defeating champion Toru Sugiura at Jun Kasai/FREEDOMS' Blood X'Mas show and has been going strong ever since. He defeated long-time partner, friendly rival, and fellow UNCHAIN member Jun Kasai in March of 2021 for his first defense with the stipulation that if Takeda retained Kasai could not challenge for the belt for a full calendar year.

     

    He would then pick up wins over Toshiyuki Sakuda and Isami Kodaka through the early parts of 2021, leading up to his big rematch against Toru Sugiura at July's Tokyo Deathmatch Carnival. This would be a hellacious match ended with a barbed-wire wrapped ankle lock. Following the match Masashi Takeda would turn his back on UNCHAIN and the rest of FREEDOMS, creating a new stable known as DICTATORSHIP with Kenji Fukimoto (Jun Kasai's former partner and UNCHAIN member), Takumi Tsukamoto, Tomoya Hirata, and Daisuke Masaoka. From there, he defeated former ally Rina Yamashita and is looking ahead to a match against Minoru Fujita at Bloody Halloween.

     

    The Story of Chris Dickinson and Steve Manders

     

    Coming in from America's Game Changer Wrestling promotion, Chris Dickinson and Steve Manders would make almost an immediate impact. Ending Violento Jack and Mammoth Sasaki's monstrous two-year 9 defense reign, the two wouldn't slow down. Now with defenses over Tony Deppen & Daniel Makabe, Toshiyuki Sakuda and Takayuki Ueki of the 3rd Generation Chimidoro Brothers, and a rematch win over Violento and Mammoth, the duo don't look to be slowing down in the slightest.

     

    The Story of ASUKA

     

    Although not listed as a champion, ASUKA was the current reigning UWA Jr. Heavyweight Champion before it was retired for a brand new belt: the Fighter of FREEDOM Openweight Championship. With the influx of non-hardcore wrestlers such as GLEAT stars, Katsuhiko Nakajima and Minoru Tanaka, young fighter Leona Fujinami, and more, Takashi Sasaki decided to make a belt less limiting to these competitors.

     

    Before that, however, ASUKA would hold the UWA Jr. Heavyweight Championship for well over 120 days, picking up defenses against some of the best Jrs. FREEDOMS has to offer in Kamui, Yuya Susumu, Daisuke Masaoka, and Makoto. ASUKA is now in the tournament to crown the Fighter of FREEDOMS champion, with high hopes to win the whole thing.

    Our show tonight opens cold, with members of Hontai and the New Japan Young Lions coming out to the ring in silence.The show is being held at an undisclosed location, in front of an audience of zero people. All of the men line up in the ring with Ibushi and Tanahashi in the front, Nagata, Ten-Koji, Ryusuke Taguchi, and Great Bash Heel behind them, and Young Lions Gabriel Kidd, Yota Tsuji, and Yuya Uemura at the very back of the formation. A ten bell salute is held for those that have lost their lives during the COVID-19 outbreak all over the world.

     

    After the salute is held, “The Ace” Hiroshi Tanahashi takes the microphone. He welcomes everyone watching at home to the show, and gives them his best wishes that everything is going alright for them. Tanahashi tells the home audience that all of the men in this ring have been through tough times, heartbreak, and trial, and this time is no different. Tanahashi himself survived a near fatal stabbing and led NJPW out of their ruin, Kota Ibushi coming back from a herniated disc and has been better than ever, Nagata being with New Japan through his whole career. The list goes on and on.

    “To get to the point,” Tanahashi begins “We know what you’re going through, and it isn’t easy. But know this: We have survived dark times, and so will you. Shin Nihon Puroresu will not die, and will walk… No, we will run right alongside you and provide you the best action in Japan to get you through these difficult times. Thank you, and enjoy the show.”

    Tanahashi drops the microphone and gathers his fellow competitors around to pose for a picture or two. After that the competitors exit the ring and head to the back, allowing us to get to our opening for the show.

    Yota Tsuji VS Gabriel Kidd

     

    cTIUb4V.jpg VS wf8Yn5M.jpg

     

    To begin our night of action, we had two Young Lions taking on one another in singles action: Yota Tsuji and Gabriel Kidd. This match was head to head, tit for tat match all the way through, with neither man wanting to give the other even the slightest chance to come out on top. Both men worked over the other man’s back to set up one another for the Boston Crab. Finally, as the match was nearing the time limit, Yota Tsuji seemed to have gotten a massive boost and went to the top rope to hit a crossbody onto Kidd! Tsuji got up, the Boston Crab was locked in, but it was too late. The bell rang, signaling not for Tsuji’s victory, but instead the time limit draw between these two competitors. Both men gave it their all, but neither were able to win.

    Kidd looked for a handshake from Tsuji, which he begrudgingly gave before exiting the ring. Exciting action to start off the night.

     

    Result: Yota Tsuji and Gabriel Kidd go to a time limit draw.

    Match #2

     

    El Desperado VS Yuya Uemura

    fGqFpGw.jpg VS 4AEw0Vg.jpg

     

    In our second match of the night featuring a Young Lion, we see Suzuki-Gun member El Desperado take on Young Lion Yuya Uemura. For any new New Japan fans, here are a few words to describe El Desperado: “Smile of a Serial Killer.” Easily one of, if not the most violent members of Suzuki-Gun with a deathmatch against Big Japan/FREEDOMS legend Jun Kasai (and a broken jaw to boot) under his belt, this match is a tall task for Yuya before he even enters the ring. But is it a tall task once Yuya enters the ring?

    It sure doesn’t look like it, as Yuya blindsides El Desperado with a running drop-kick! Yuya tries to keep this moment going as he hits another dropkick, and goes for a third! But on the third attempt, Desperado ducks it, and immediately puts the boots to the downed Young Lion. Desperado leads Yuya outside, throwing him into the guardrail shoulder first. Ouch. Desperado then leads the Young Lion back into the ring and sends him into the ropes for a dropkick of his own. Things are looking bleak for Yuya, and although he tries to get his momentum back with a chop to Desperado, it does nothing to the tenured Junior Heavyweight. Desperado hits his own chops on Yuya, and looks to set him up for the Pinche Loco… but Yuya slips out of it and hits the ropes!

    Yuya hits a dropkick, and then another! Desperado is on the ground, prone for a good Boston Crab! But Yuya doesn’t want to win it that way. No, no, no. He’s gonna match El Desperado’s crazy; he’s going to the top rope. Yuya sits perched like an eagle on the top rope, waiting for the sleeping ‘giant’ known as El Desperado to rise. When he does, he stands up, he leaps… and he misses it when El Desperado steps out of the way, landing straight on his chest in the process. Desperado picks up the limp challenger and finally nails him with the Pinche Loco to get the 1-2-3 victory.

     

    Result: El Desperado beats Yuya Uemura

    Rating: 16

    Time: 4:51

     

    After the match, Desperado looks like he’s going to continue putting the boots to Uemura, but instead he leaves the ring. El Desperado’s mind works in mysterious ways.

    9ZW0T8I.jpgTurB0GZ.jpgXs7Uxzj.jpgCbYh3mH.jpg

     

    In our first non Young Lion match of the night, we see BULLET CLUB members Yujiro Takahashi, a veteran true-born heavyweight, Taiji Ishimori, a veteran Junior of Japanese wrestling as a whole, and Gedo & Jado, a Junior team that have been around since the 90s. On the other side of the ball, we see CHAOS members Toru Yano, a crafty and creative entrepreneur to say the least, YOSHI-HASHI, a heavyweight veteran, and Hirooki Goto, another Heavyweight veteran that has done almost everything there is to do in New Japan Pro Wrestling except win the IWGP World Heavyweight Title. Teaming alongside them is Hontai member Tomoaki Honma, who normally teams with Togi Makabe as Great Bash Heel.

    The match begins with Toru Yano and Jado in the ring. The two of these men will be facing each other in the first round of the New Japan Cup tomorrow tonight, so this will surely be a preview of their match, right? Right! Yano immediately goes for the turnbuckle pad, removing it just in time for a hit from Jado. The two men attempt to go through a plain wrestling sequence, but interference from BULLET CLUB on Jado and Gedo’s behalf leads to Goto and YOSHI-HASHI knocking Taiji and Yujiro off of the ring apron. Because of this, a big brawl starts between the two teams. During this scuffle, Toru Yano introduces athletic tape and ties up the legal man Gedo up on the outside! With the help of his teammates, however, he’s put back in the ring and untied.

    The rest of the match continues as normal and the finish comes when another brawl between the two teams starts on the outside, leaving Yujiro Takahashi and Tomoaki Honma as the legal men on the inside. Honma looked to whip Taiji from one corner to the other, but instead was almost whipped right into the referee of the match. Yujiro takes this opportunity to roll up Honma and get the victory for BULLET CLUB!

     

    Result: BULLET CLUB (Yujiro Takahashi, Taiji Ishimori, Gedo, and Jado) beat CHAOS (Toru Yano, YOSHI-HASHI, and Hirooki Goto) and Tomoaki Honma when Yujiro Takahashi pinned Tomoaki Honma

    Hontai (TenKoji (Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Satoshi Kojima) and Ryusuke Taguchi) VS Los Ingobernales de Japón (SANADA, EVIL, and BUSHI)

    Coming back from our sanitization break, we have two halves of the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Title holders (EVIL and BUSHI) and SANADAI of Los Ingobernales de Japon taking on Hontai members TenKoji and Ryusuke Taguchi. For new fans, SANADA and EVIL have been one of the most dominant tag teams in recent history, having two reigns as IWGP Heavyweight Tag Champions, three NEVER Openweight 6-Man Reigns with BUSHI, and winning two World Tag Leagues in a row. Neither man is one to sleep on in singles action either, though, with SANADA having respectable runs in the G1 Climax these past four years and making the finals of 2019’s New Japan Cup beating talent such as Minoru Suzuki, Colt Cabana, Hirooki Goto, and Hiroshi Tanahashi, before finally falling to Kazuchika Okada in the finals. EVIL has about the same story with more than respectable finishes in the G1 Climax each year, including a third place berth in 2017 behind Kazuchika Okada and Kenny Omega. Along with this, he also had a 10 day reign as NEVER Openweight Champion. BUSHI has been around New Japan since 2012, and despite never winning the Best of the Super Juniors tournament, he has always impressed, also having a IWGP Jr. Title and Jr. Tag Title (with Shingo Takagi) reign under his belt.

    On Hontai’s side of the ball, all four of these men are considered legends of New Japan. Tenzan and Kojima have both been IWGP Champion, have both won at least one G1 Climax, are 6 time IWGP Tag Team Champions with one another, and have won various other awards and championships in their nearly 30 year careers. Ryusuke Taguchi is considered one of the best Juniors New Japan has ever produced, and is still trucking right along in his 18th professional year. Taguchi is a two time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion, a six(!) time IWGP Junior Tag Team Champion (four times with Prince Devitt, now known as Finn Balor, as Apollo 55, and one time each with El Samurai and Ricochet), and a one time Best of the Super Junior Winner. There is one thing that sets these two teams apart, however: Hontai are much older, and, with the exception of Taguchi, are slowing down in their careers. Some fans affectionately call this group of wrestlers that includes TenKoji and Great Bash Heel “Dads” because of that. We’ll see if that plays into this match tonight.

     

    The match starts with Tenzan and BUSHI in the ring. Tenzan easily outmatches the Junior, working him over for a minute before he’s able to get a tag out to EVIL. The two big men go at it, with eventual tags to Kojima and SANADA, and eventually knock each other onto the ground. Both Kojima and SANADA crawl to their respective corners, each getting closer and closer… Kojima tags in Ryusuke Taguchi! EVIL’s hand is out, he’s looking for the hot tag to face off with the Junior, but SANADA tags in BUSHI! EVIL looks annoyed as BUSHI runs in to fight with Taguchi, both men exchanging blows with one another going toe to toe. But TenKoji run into the ring and knock SANADA and EVIL off to even the playing field! All four men are on the outside fighting! BUSHI hits the ropes, but gets hit with Taguchi’s Funky Weapon (hip attack) and is on the canvas. Taguchi lifts him up for the Dodon… and hits it! 1-2-3 and Taguchi has won Hontai the match, SANADA getting in just a split second too late to break it up.

     

    Result: Hontai (TenKoji and Ryusuke Taguchi) beat Los Ingobernales de Japón (SANADA, EVIL, and BUSHI) when Ryusuke Taguchi pinned BUSHI following a Dodon.

    Post-Match:

    After the match we see EVIL seemingly berating BUSHI for losing the match, with SANADA having to get between the two to keep them apart. The three eventually walk off, with EVIL much further in front of them. This certainly isn’t a good look for Los Ingobernales de Japon if they don’t want to look like sore losers.

    8saRzJF.jpgZs4R9q8.jpgZklzgA2.jpgv0xdlNh.jpg

     

    Both of these teams already have one victory each tonight, with Suzuki-Gun’s El Desperado getting the win over Yuya Uemura prior to the break, and TenKoji/Taguchi picking up the win over L.I.J. only one match ago. This certainly looks to be one of Hontai’s strongest team, featuring “The Ace” Hiroshi Tanahashi, G1 Climax Winner and former IWGP Intercontinental Champion Kota Ibushi, and legendary dads Yuji Nagata and Togi Makabe. Suzuki-Gun aren’t slouches though with their leader, the cold, calculated, and sometimes cruel Minoru Suzuki, technical wizard Zack Sabre Jr., God Among Men Taichi (bow before your ruler), and newest member, Junior wrestler DOUKI. One thing to note about this match-up: Golden Aces and Sabre/Taichi are both established tag teams, with Aces being the current Tag Champions. We’ll see if that plays into the match…

     

    The match begins with Minoru Suzuki and Togi Makabe tagged into the match. Makabe rushes at Suzuki to start, but is quickly stopped with various technical holds from the more than technically competent Minoru Suzuki. Suzuki continues to wear down Makabe with holds before tagging in the cocky Zack Sabre Jr., who kicks at Makabe and mouths off with both Tanahashi and Kota Ibushi. Zack Sabre Jr. has history with Both Tanahashi and Kota Ibushi, being 4-4 in singles competition with the former, and 3-2 with Kota Ibushi. Tanahashi takes great offense to the mouthing, mouthing right back at the strapping young lad. The match continues as normal, with Taichi getting the tag in and continuing to mouth with the opposing team, this time to Kota Ibushi. Kota leads singles matches over Taichi 1-0, with a single victory in the 2009 Best of the Super Juniors victory. As such, Ibushi doesn’t let it phase him much.

     

    Eventually, Togi is able to tag out to Yuji Nagata, and Taichi tags Suzuki back in. To say that these two competitors have history is an understatement. Their history is a blood feud that goes back to 2004, with the men being tied 4-4 in singles New Japan Competition. As such, the two men tag out to Kota Ibushi and DOUKI respectively. Nothing much of note happens with Ibushi dominating DOUKI while the two are in the ring. Ibushi gets off his game, however, as Zack Sabre Jr. talks shit to him in the corner and finally gives him a slap, which pisses off team Hontai. The three on the apron get into the ring and exchange words with the three from Suzuki-Gun before the referee breaks it up. Later in the match, Nagata has tagged in and both have been (less than cleanly on the front of DOUKI) knocked onto the floor. Yet again we have a hot tag situation, but only Ibushi is able to get the tag, as he tags in Makabe! Makabe is just able to stop DOUKI from getting the tag, which leads to both teams storming the ring and fighting with one another. Makabe makes quick work of DOUKI with a body slam, a lariat, and finally going to the top rope for the King Kong Knee Drop. Togi Makabe gets the pin, and rolls DOUKI out of the ring back to his Suzuki-Gun stablemates.

     

    Result: Hontai (Golden Ace, Yuji Nagata, and Togi Makabe) defeat Suzuki-Gun (Minoru Suzuki, Zack Sabre Jr., Taichi, and DOUKI) when Togi Makabe pinned DOUKI following a King Kong Knee Drop.

    2XZqrmG.jpgtIv3yV1.jpg3NgjXN9.jpg

     

    This is the match that everyone has been waiting for. Kazuchika Okada and the Junior Tag Team Champions take on a stable currently filled with gold: Los Ingobernales de Japón. The IWGP Heavyweight, Intercontinental, Junior, and NEVER Openweight champion are all taking part in this match on the side of L.I.J., with the man who only at Wrestle Kingdom defeated Kazuchika Okada to become double champion, Tetsuya Naito, taking part as well. SHO and Hiromu start the match with a quick sequence, before breaking up and regrouping. The two lock up once again before SHO sends Hiromu crashing to the outside. SHO then goes over and knocks Naito off of the ring apron as YOH gets into the ring and knocks Okada off. The two men wait for their moment, and then dive to the outside hitting both Shingo and Hiromu! After that, SHO and Takahashi slowly climb back in, as SHO continues to work him over.

    The match continues as normal for the most part. However, close to the middle of the match both Tetsuya Naito and Kazuchika Okada are tagged in for their respective teams. If there was a crowd, this would be an electric moment for them. Two men with a storied history, now standing in the ring against one another at the first New Japan show back. It’s tense up until the very moment the two men lock up. They aren’t in the ring for long, only getting a hold or two on one another. But the whole time that they are? You can feel the tension of about 1,000 rubber bands in the ring. Their final hold is broken, and Naito tags in Takahashi. To end out the match, Takahashi and YOH are trading blows between each other, barely able to stand on their feet. YOH goes for running knee, Takahashi ducks it. Takahashi goes for a clothesline of his own, but YOH ducks it, the two can barely get ground over the other. That is until Takahashi finally gains his ground over YOH, and is able to hit the Time Bomb on YOH. Naito and Shingo both stand by their stablemate to make sure CHAOS can’t break up the pin, and because of that, Los Ingobernales de Japón win the match.

     

    Result: Los Ingobernales de Japon (Tetsuya Naito, Hiromu Takahashi, and Shingo Takagi) defeat CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada and Roppongi 3K (SHO and YOH)) when Hiromu Takahashi pinned YOH following a Time Bomb.

    Post-Match:

    Tetsuya Naito celebrates with his stablemates, with BUSHI, SANADA, and EVIL coming out. EVIL still looks annoyed, but at least stands along while Tetsuya Naito leads the role call, and closes out the Together Project Special. One more thing from IWGP Double Champion Tetsuya Naito:

    “Shin Nihon Puroresu is here to stay, and so are we!”

    With that message, Naito hands off his microphone and heads to the back with one more pose by the curtains as we go to the commentators for final comments, and fade to black soon after.

    Hope you all enjoyed! Not all shows in the future will have this long of results, just wanted to give an intro for anyone new to NJPW on this show. Any critiques are welcome!

  13. Together Project Special News and more!

     

    News from NJPW1972.com:

    New Japan Pro Wrestling to Run Their First Card in 110 Days!

     

    After a long absence from the wrestling sphere, NJPW is set to come back June 15, 2020 with a brand new Together Project Special Card! Only one match has been announced for this card so far to keep it primarily a secret: The CHAOS team of Kazuchika Okada and IWGP Jr. Tag Team Champions Roppongi 3K will take on the Los Ingobernales de Japon team of IWGP Heavyweight and Intercontinental Double Champion Tetsuya Naito, IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion Hiromu Takahashi, and NEVER Openweight and NEVER 6-Man Champion Shingo Takagi.

    This card not only starts New Japan Pro Wrestling back on a normal schedule, but also marks the beginning of both Yuji Nagata and Hiroyoshi Tenzan’s road to retirement. Both men announced their plans to retire in May, only a day apart from each other. They have stated that, with COVID going around, both men would like to be with their family more and have decided to call it a career in the ring. Because of this, New Japan is planning a special retirement show for the two men that will take place in the midst of our soon to be announced Summer Tour!

     

    In more news related to this Together Project Special event, Tomohiro Ishii will not be apart of it, or a part of the upcoming New Japan Cup. Ishii sustained a depressed maxillary fracture while working with an independent promotion, and looks to be out until later in the tournament. He will, however, be back in time for Dominion in Osaka-Jo Hall! DOUKI will be taking the place of Tomohiro Ishii in his first round match against El Desperado.

     

    So tune into New Japan World on June 15 and see for the first time since February, the excitement and hard hitting action of a New Japan Pro Wrestling show!

    Anyone not listed here is either with New Japan of America, or still at home due to lockdown.

  17. The date is June 9th, 2020. COVID has already rocked the world in a profound and never before seen way. Wrestling across the map has been rocked. Shows have been canceled, wrestlers have lost their jobs, and travel across the world has come to a crawling halt with travel restrictions being implemented all over the world. But through all this, one company is looking to crawl back up to the top, and rise above this virus. After all, Shin Nihon Puroresu, New Japan Pro Wrestling, have built themselves on Fighting Spirit through their almost five decade life. What has COVID built itself on? Fear, illness, and death.

    As New Japan looks to be one of the first Japanese companies to start shows again full-time, one mantra is in mind.

    “COVID-19 will not kill New Japan Pro Wrestling.”.

    Hello everyone! I'm not sure if many of you remember me, completely fine if you don't as I only ran one dynasty back in 2016. But in either case, I'm back now starting this New Japan save that I consider quite special, with a feature I consider quite special: This save will feature extra COVID precautions. What this means is that less people from the US and elsewhere will be coming in over the course of the save. I won't spoil anything, but don't expect as many people as they have had come in this year.

     

    Another special thing that I will be doing with this save that relates to COVID, is putting on a 14 day waiting period to any Japanese talent I sign, or who come back from excursion, as a quarantine phase while they re-enter Japan. I hope that you all enjoy! First show will be the Together Project Special, and then we roll onto the 2020 New Japan Cup! Cheers!

     

    P.S.: All credit to Lukke Arthur (Galaxy Pack, and of course the rest of the gang that helps out with the pack), Joemurphy (SAMPP), Sabin (free picture pack), and MarcStephens123, who I would reccomend scoping his picture pack out. I ended up not using it for this project, but just know I think you've got a sick pack going, my man.
