New Japan Pro Wrestling: Korakuen Hall, Tokyo, Japan - September 29, 2023
In the latest edition of NJPW's TV show, a veritable smorgasbord of matches unfolded before a lively crowd at Korakuen Hall. The evening's festivities began with a singles bout featuring Henare taking on Oskar Leube.
Henare's technical prowess proved too much for Leube, as he methodically worked over his opponent to secure the win in 8:58 minutes. A solid opener that set the tone for what was to come.
Next up, CHAOS and Hiroshi Tanahashi teamed with Tiger Mask to take on Oleg Boltin, Yuto Nakashima, and Shingo Takagi in a six-man tag team match. The crowd was firmly behind the CHAOS contingent as they worked together seamlessly to outmaneuver their opponents. In the end, it was Tanahashi who sealed the deal with a top-rope High Fly Flow, resulting in a 9:31-minute victory.
The main event quartet got underway with Los Ingobernables de Japon (BUSHI, Shingo Takagi, and Yota Tsuji) facing United Empire (Callum Newman, Great-O-Khan, and Jeff Cobb). This was a hard-hitting affair that saw both teams trading near-falls. Ultimately, the LIDJ trio emerged victorious in 12:29 minutes, with BUSHI securing the win.
The Guerrillas Of Destiny and Intergalactic Jet Setters (El Phantasmo and Hikuleo) teamed up to take on BULLET CLUB War Dogs (Alex Coughlin, Clark Connors, Drilla Moloney, and Gabe Kidd). A wild and woolly affair that saw both teams trading blows. In the end, it was GoD who got the win, with a flurry of strikes ending the match in 11:19 minutes.
In the penultimate bout, Guerrillas Of Destiny (Jado, Tama Tonga, and Tanga Loa) faced BULLET CLUB (Chase Owens, David Finlay, and Gedo). This was a physical encounter that saw both teams going toe-to-toe. In the end, it was GoD who came out on top in 13:05 minutes.
The evening's main event saw Strong Style (DOUKI, SANADA, and TAKA Michinoku) take on Master Wato, Shota Umino, and Yuji Nagata in a six-man tag team Best of Seven Series match. This was a fascinating encounter that saw all three teams trading near-falls. In the end, it was Strong Style who emerged victorious in 10:28 minutes.
The night's final bout pitted Just 4 Guys (DOUKI, SANADA, and TAKA Michinoku) against House Of Torture (EVIL, SHO, and Yoshinobu Kanemaru). A technical contest that saw all three teams trading holds. In the end, it was JFG who got the win in 10:03 minutes.
The evening's main event match saw CHAOS (Kazuchika Okada and Lio Rush) face Los Ingobernables de Japon (Hiromu Takahashi and Tetsuya Naito). This was a thrilling encounter that saw both teams trading near-falls. In the end, it was CHAOS who emerged victorious in 20:20 minutes, with Okada securing the win.
Overall, a strong show from NJPW that featured a mix of technical grappling and high-octane action. The crowd was firmly behind the local talent, and there were few dull moments throughout the evening's proceedings.
