Member Back to Top Post by Emperor Ihsahn on Shinsuke Nakamura made his final appearance for New Japan today in the main event of a jammed packed Korakuen Hall show. Ishii picked up the win for Nakamura & Okada as he pinned Shibata. Following the match Nakamura would be interrupted by Kenny Omega who said that Nakamura was afraid of fighting him which is why he is really leaving. At this Tanahashi came out and told Omega that he was X and would be facing him for the IC title next month. Nakamura would then take the mic and tell the crowd that "The story goes on so I will not say goodbye". Here are the full results and notes from the show thanks to the great guys over at Purolove.com...

Member Back to Top Post by Emperor Ihsahn on Some solid chain wrestling to start off. Both guys one upping one another. The crowd is into the match which is a good sign. Finlay hits a perfect drop kick and takes over as he slama White for a 1 count before unloading on White with some vicious elbows to the neck. Finlay tries for a chin lock but White reaches the ropes before slowly getting back into the action. White hits a spinng elbow and takea over, he goes to the top and hits a big missle dropkick for a 2 count. Back and forth action now as both guys are laying their shots in and they exchange 2 counts. Finlay locks in a Boston Crab but White is able to reach the ropes. White now locks in a single legged crab and wrenches back, Finlay has no choice but to tap out.



Jay White d. David Finlay via submission.



EoT Score: 2.5/5 stars.

Member Back to Top Post by Emperor Ihsahn on Liger & Sakuraba kick things off with some back and forth action before both men go for submission holds. Lifer gets the better of it early on until Gedo and Yoahi-Hashi get involved. Sakuraba locks in a chin lock then proceeds to kick and chop away at Liger in no man's land. Gedo in now to work over Liger, now it's Yoshi's turn to lay it on Liger. Yoshi goes forma splash but misses which allows Liger to get the tag to Tiger Mask who cleans house. Big kicks from Tiger on Yoshi which gets a 2 count. Tiger Driver nearly ends things but Yoshi kicks out then hits a reversal. Yoshi tags in Gedo while in comes Taguchi who does his annoying but moves. Fuck I hate Taguchi. Yoshi cuts him off and hits a bit lariat followed by a Gedo superkick for a 2 count. Some good wrestling leads to Taguxhi locking in a modified ankle lock and Gedo taps.



Taguchi, Tiger Mask & Jushin Liger d. Gedo, Yoshi-Hashi & Sakuraba via submiaaion.



EoT Score: 1.5/5 stars.

Member Back to Top Post by Emperor Ihsahn on I don't care how old they get I love Hiroshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima! Back and forth action from all guys as they are all laying in the stiff shots. Nagata nearly wins it with a chin lock but its broken up. Kojima gets the tag to Tenzan who cleans house and beats some Nagata ass. Nagata turns the tidenthan gets the tag to Nakanishi who takes over. Kojima is in now and lights Nakanishi up with stiff chops before Nagata cuts him off. Nagata hit an explorer on Kojima than Nakanishi lays Kojima out with a DVD for a 2 count. Tenzan back in and he and Kojima hit a 3D on Nakanishi for a 2. Kojima destroys Nakanishi with a lariat for the win.



Tenzan & Kojima d. Nagata & Nakanishi via pin.



EoT Score: 3/5 stars.
