06:34WPW 2024 champion is the great Okan but more impressingly the number one
06:40contender to IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Tetsuya Naito. They'll face off
06:46September the 29th when we're live in English in Kobe World Hall and the
06:52winner of that bout will be going on to face the G1 Climax winner Zack Sabre
06:58Jr. at King of Pro Wrestling October the 14th. Yes the G1 Climax winner Zack
07:05Sabre Jr. will be calling his shot not at the Tokyo Dome January the 4th but
07:10instead at King of Pro Wrestling in Ryogoku this October. We just have to
07:16find out who the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion will be. It's a very different
07:21move and a little different path to the Tokyo Dome this year. We're gonna be
07:26talking all about it and I'll let you know this match after this match rather
07:30just how you could be a part of the action. January the 4th Wrestle Kingdom
07:3619 and January the 5th Wrestle Dynasty.
07:42Naito the victim's captain of industry and could be the World Heavyweight
07:49Champion in just a few weeks time. There's Jacob Austin Young. Familiar face to millions of OWE in China as well as
08:02NJPW Strong and the Indies on the West Coast and we've got a special shout out
08:08and congratulations to Calum Newman on the new vest and also his first
08:13anniversary. Dangerous JAY would like us to call it this new J-Pan Pro Wrestling.
08:28Yes it was exactly one year ago that the Prince of Pace Calum Newman took his
08:34first steps inside the Cerulean Blue.
08:43KOPW 2024 Champion Great Okan. So proud of that rule, revitalization, that grassroots movement to unite the
09:04fiefdoms of Japan starting next week. We're gonna be starting in Noboribetsu
09:09next Saturday and then all the way around hitting some great towns right up
09:14in the north of Japan in Hokkaido. A long-awaited Hokkaido tour and I know
09:20Great Okan would ordinarily want to be defending that KOPW Championship every
09:25night on that tour. However Great Okan is singular in his focus for now. That
09:32being IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Tetsuya Naito.
09:41And on and on beyond that Calum Newman. I know last we spoke very very excited to
09:49be heading back home. October the 20th will be in London's Crystal Palace and
09:56National Indoor Sports Arena. Tickets going extremely quickly almost as quick
10:01as Shoma Kato and Katsuya Murashima off the gun here as Tiger Mask starts going to
10:07work on Great Okan.
10:16The number one contender for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. Who knows what might happen.
10:21Great Okan could have a bout of food poisoning in the middle of this match.
10:25Katsuya Murashima might be number one contender for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.
10:31Katsuya Murashima now putting in the work. Man, Murashima has been putting in the work in terms of
10:37putting on size, getting bigger, getting more power in behind those strikes. We
10:42had a great night yesterday with Shingo Takagi's 20th anniversary in
10:47Yamanashi. He told that story when he started at Animal Hamaguchi's gym. Within
10:51two months he lost about a third of his body weight. That was just how demanding the
11:00training was. Animal Hamaguchi told him to eat and eat and eat and he got bigger and then lose the
11:08weight again. Keep that cycle going. That's how you get big and that's what
11:11Murashima's been doing. Tiger Mask cleared off the apron here.
11:15Cullen Newman setting to work on the mask. Legend will be talking in fact to Cullen
11:21Newman right here at ringside. Cullen's going to join me on color commentary.
11:26Tiger Mask almost joined me at the headsets right here right now. I can
11:31barely breathe here.
11:33All right, breathing control required on those mighty Mongolian chops. Murashima tries to cover up and gets a
11:53swap for his efforts. Slap in the head, that means he's smart. And from the
11:58loneliest peasants to the mightiest of pharaohs, who does not enjoy a good sit?
12:08Jacob Austin Young being taught the benefits of a good sit. Improves the
12:15constitution. And in here we see Jacob Austin Young. As I said, a very familiar face,
12:28somewhat familiar at least to those who have been watching NJPW Strong all the way
12:34back in the day. A couple of appearances in 2022 and thanks to his work on the West
12:41Coast as well. Formed a relationship with TJP who brought JAY in. Here's the
12:45cover, hook the outside leg and a kick out by Murashima. Did have a chat with
12:55Cullen earlier on this afternoon and said that Jacob has been fitting in
13:05pretty seamlessly with the United Empire side. That is seamless every time.
13:10Massive boot. And Callum Yunin brought the pace to yesterday in Yamanashi along with
13:17Iita from Dragon Gate. By the way that event was live in Japanese. Walker
13:25Stewart recording commentary on that to go up in post as we speak. So we'll
13:29endeavor to be spoiler free when it comes to Shingo Takagi's 20th
13:34anniversary event. So that people who want to wait for the English commentary
13:38can do so. In the meantime we'll be live in English of course here tonight and
13:46tomorrow night when the NEBA Openweight Championship will be on the line and
13:50I and Hiromi Takahashi will talk about that. Man what a dropkick. What a dropkick
13:56from Murashima.
13:59And we'll crawl and scrape and get there. Here comes Tiger Mask. And if that kick from Murashima hurt, well Tiger Mask is just going to rub salt into the wound, almost literally.
14:19Here we go, Tiger Driver inbounds.
14:23Long saw it coming.
14:28Close like no, underneath. Standing switch. Classic Tiger Mask here. There's the heel kick.
14:37And crucifix could have you man. Does not. But keeps him right there. Great transition. And he's tapped out many a man.
14:48With this very hold, Great O'Connor in to break it up.
14:54Shoma Kato playing cover very very well.
14:59Wouldn't be a great anniversary gift for Calum Newman, first anniversary of New Japan Pro Wrestling if he loses this match.
15:05Sends Kato to the outside and now Newman, Tiger Mask, here we go.
15:11Sweeps the leg, double stomp.
15:15And here come the people who have taken a huge sign to Newman.
15:25Oh no, missed the first time, got it on the second.
15:32Still doesn't face, Tiger Mask delivers the Tiger Driver.
15:37And I think Newman has been knocked for six here.
15:45Wants to tag out to Jacob Austin Young, J-A-Y, Kato in the opposite corner.
15:51And here we go, tomorrow night this is going to be a singles match on the card.
15:57It could be the deciding factor in this six man tag.
16:02Kato on the right, close the distance did Jacob Austin Young.
16:11Nice leg lariat there.
16:17And it's Kato reeling.
16:20Kato!
16:22Kato!
16:24Let's see here, thinking of sliced bread.
16:26Shunui out the corner, Kato to nine, Murashima.
16:31In the wrong corner when it comes to United Empire.
16:34Murashima doing great tag work there.
16:36Good awareness to clear Great Okada off the apron.
16:39Stops Jacob Austin Young making the tag.
16:41And here we go, double hip toss out.
16:46Here's the cover, both legs, hoops.
16:49Didn't get cheated on that one, but did only get two.
17:02A hard chop there from Shunui Kato.
17:09And knocks Young's block off there.
17:12Cover again, no.
17:14And no.
17:16All these young lions so rigorously drilled on their fundamentals.
17:19No lackadaisical covers.
17:21All the body weight, all the weight there behind that end zone.
17:27Tiger Mask and Calum Young have gotten into it.
17:30Right over to my right, non-factor in the rest of this matchup.
17:33Shiranui out the corner, yes sir, there he has it.
17:36Here's the cover.
17:38And yes, that's it.
17:45On the board for Jacob Austin Young.
17:50Who will be taking on Shoma Kato one-on-one tomorrow night.
17:56And a nice little preview of what's to come.
18:01A win on Yokoro Kunho, debut has to feel good.
18:08Great Okada, just another day in the office.
18:11He has ideas on a much, much higher station.
18:14The highest of all stations.
18:17Calum Newman and Tiger Mask are getting into it.
18:20I know Newman's...
18:21Oh brother, they're really getting into it.
18:28What in the world has gotten into Tiger Mask and Calum Newman?
18:37We had some people to separate these two.
18:42Jacob Austin Young and Calum Newman.
18:45A win for Okada Newman.
19:11First record haul.
19:12I got signs already.
19:14This is just the beginning, baby.
19:26Let's go, New-J, hey!
