LEGACY 15 - SOVEREIGNTY

LIVE FROM OSAKA-JO HALL, OSAKA, JAPAN
TUESDAY - OCTOBER 17, 2017




Pyrotechnics blaze across the stage as the intro to Legacy #15 “Sovereignty” plays. The atmosphere in the arena is electric, as the fans are hyped for the show ahead. A video package begins to hype the card for the night, which culminates in a double main event with both the Rising Sun and CWC Junior Heavyweight Championships on the line. Immediately after the video ends, Björn Gunnarsson and Danny Hall make their entrances.[/align]

MATCH ONE
BJÖRN GUNNARSSON w/ DABRIA RHODES vs. DANNY HALL


This match begins, and straight away Danny Hall begins to laugh at Dabria Rhodes. Björn Gunnarsson steps forwards to defend her, but Dabria steps up onto the apron to deal with the issue herself. She asks Danny Hall what his problem is, and says that she’s disappointed that somebody she idolized turned out to be such a jerk. Hall doesn’t react to this, instead choosing to turn his attention to Björn. The two men step forward and begin to circle the ring, before meeting up in the middle. Danny Hall knows he’ll lose any test of strength between the two, but goes in for a lock up any way. Almost straight away, Gunnarsson pulls him into a side headlock. But this appears to be all part of Danny’s plan, as he makes no attempt to break out of it. Instead, he lulls Björn into a false sense of security. Just as he’s starting to feel confident, Danny Hall takes it all away from him with a side suplex. Björn Gunnarsson gets back up to his feet, but he walks right into a superkick from Danny Hall. Danny goes for the pin, but Björn powers out of it at two.

Björn rises to his feet, not best pleased. Danny Hall decides the best course of action is to evade him for as long as he possibly can - but this course of action doesn’t last long. Björn grabs hold of Danny, and he pulls him in closely so he can get his hand around his throat. With all his might, Gunnarsson slams Hall down for a chokeslam. He goes for a cover, but Danny Hall kicks out.

Danny struggles to his feet, while Björn lays in wait. Danny turns around, walking into a running power slam, which Björn follows up with an elbow drop. He then boots Hall in the leg, punishing him as much as he can. Björn turns to Dabria for encouragement and reassurance that she’s okay, but Dabria desperately tries to warn him about what’s behind him. By taking his eyes off of Danny Hall, Björn Gunnarsson allowed his opponent to get back to his feet. Unbeknownst to Björn, Hall is setting up “The Trendsetter”, his cutter finisher. When Gunnarsson turns around, the move connects. And that’s all she wrote, as Danny Hall picks up the three count.


Winner: Danny Hall (Time: 17:22)

[align=center]We enter the backstage area where we see the interviewer standing with Yuri Jigoku. Jigoku, who has a Japanese flag draped over his shoulders, stares intently off towards the distance.

The interviewer raises the microphone in her hand to introduce him, which draws a large reaction from the crowd watching in the arena. She asks for his thoughts about his upcoming match with Kuma. Jigoku hesitates before speaking, looking to collect his thoughts. He speaks about the blindside attack the week prior, Kuma costing him the chance to be put into championship contention.

He calls the act of ruining a match of such importance cowardly, as though Kuma spat in the face of puroresu integrity. He continues by saying that every action has a repercussion. It was never personal between he and Kuma before, but now things have changed. It's more than a battle for nationalistic pride, it is now a war for dominance.

The interviewer responds with a follow up question, with tonight's event easily being one of the biggest in the company's history; what will lead him and, in a sense, his country to victory?

Jigoku mentions his mindset. He is on a path. Kuma is a rung on the ladder that leads to the Rising Sun Championship. Call it America versus Japan. New school versus old. Some say it is an opportunity for Kuma to jump to the next level, and a redemption story for Yuri himself.

He says he doesn't like buying into hype, that headlines are just headlines. He wears the Japanese colours with pride, and Kuma wants to take that away from him. Kuma will try, but he isn't going to stop Jigoku climb to the top of the ladder.

He finishes by saying that he'll be watching each title match tonight with great interest, and just like how in a matter of just a few moments he will topple Kuma... in a matter of time, he will be in the main event once again competing for Japan's richest prize.

MATCH TWO
KUMA vs. YURI JIGOKU


The match begins, and in a rare occurrence in CWC Japan: Legacy, the crowd are firmly behind Yuri Jigoku. He and Kuma lock up, but this is neither man’s true intention. They both break away, and this quickly turns into a brawl. They begin sharing lefts and rights with one another, this one having become a personal matter over the last few days. Kuma gains the upper hand, but not for long. Soon enough, Yuri Jigoku is fighting back with several knife edge chops. They make Kuma stagger backwards, eventually making him back all the way up against the ropes. But he’s able to turn the situation around, as the ropes give him the leverage to springboard off of them and take Jigoku down with huge clothesline. With Yuri on his back, he locks him in the tightest of Boston crabs, intent on making him admit that the United States is the superior nation. But Yuri refuses to quit, his pride simply will not allow him to do so. Instead, he fights through the pain. He drags himself across the mat, but as soon as he gets close to the ropes Kuma pulls him back to the middle again. He still refuses to tap out, though, and eventually finds a way to power out of the hold.

Irritated, Kuma gets to his feet. He pulls Yuri Jigoku back up, but Jigoku slaps him across the face and questions his manhood. This quickly reaches boiling point again when Kuma tackles Yuri to the mat and the two begin to brawl, but when Yuri gets to his feet first he takes advantage of the situation. Kuma gets up and tries for a sit out inverted DDT. But Yuri Jigoku has other intentions. Instead, he rushes in and kicks Kuma in the gut. This forces him to double over, leaving him vulnerable to a double underhook facebuster. When Kuma pulls himself back up, it proves to be wasted energy as he just ends up walking right into “Kowareta Kubi”, Yuri’s burning hammer finisher. He drops down to make the cover, getting the three count.


Winner: Yuri Jigoku (Time: 15:41)

[align=center]Cameras cut backstage to the catering area. The catering line is full of various roster members and staff – and sitting at a table not far away, is The Big Breakfast, Big Banter – keeping an eye on the line, making sure nobody gets any smart ideas and tries to cut it, we all know what happens when you cut the catering line.

Posted Image

On the plate in front of him, is…well, a big breakfast. It’s god damn twice as big as that other time we saw his breakfast! He’s got ten sausages, thirteen eggs, sixteen slices of bacon, six pieces of pudding, ten hash browns, eight slices of toast and some waffles – no pancakes on the menu this week sadly. He goes to eat it, but before he does, he looks down at his boot which is covered in crime scene tape. He says a quick prayer for his fallen comrade Chase Futrell, who he may or may not have killed. He eats some of his breakfast before stopping to once again, pay respects to Chase.

He looks back up and – gasp – his breakfast is gone!! Confused, Big Banter looks around to see there isn’t a single soul in catering. He rubs his eyes, thinking he’s just imagined his god damn breakfast vanishing, but alas, the plate is still empty. As he stands up in a rage, he notices bits of his breakfast on the floor, leading him to one, obvious conclusion….SOMEONE ATE HIS BREAKFAST! There’s one thing he knows he has to do…it’s time to call……. The PoPo.

MATCH THREE
OCULTA DA SILVA vs. BIG BANTER


From the very get go, these two men are right at each other. It’s rather symbolic of their time in CWC Japan: Legacy so far, as both men go for the other’s throat. There’s no general structure or flow to the match in the early goings, as both men are just intent on hurting each other. Big Banter takes Da Silva down with a snap DDT, but as soon as he gets the opportunity to respond, Da Silva does exactly that with a spinebuster. Not even that keeps Banter down for too long though, as his hatred for Da Silva alone is enough to keep him going. He gets up and connects with a running back elbow, followed by a pump handle slam. A snap elbow drop gives him control of the match, even if just for the time being. He makes sure to capitalise while he has the chance, connecting with several high impact moves to do as much damage to Da Silva as possible. A powerslam is followed by a pin attempt, but Da Silva is easily able to kick out at two.

Da Silva gets back to his feet, ignoring the flurry of strikes being thrown by Big Banter. In a rage, he powers Banter away and stands up straight, marching towards his opponent. He drops a leg across his throat, taking the breath out of Big Banter. He then yanks him to his feet and whips him against the ropes, only to slam him back down with a huge Samoan drop. It crushes Big Banter against the mat, but Da Silva isn’t content there. He pulls Big Banter up again and throws him against the corner - but when he goes for a running corner splash, Big Banter moves out of the way. He sends Da Silva chest-first into the turnbuckle, enraging his foe. Da Silva turns around, only to walk right into a clothesline. It doesn’t take the big man off of his feet, but the follow up “Wordsworth Way” spinning back suplex does. Big Banter feels as though he’s closing in on victory, so begins to stalk Oculta Da Silva. He sets up for his Big Banter Boot finisher, and it seems as though he’s going to hit it. But Oculta Da Silva catches his foot, and before Big Banter can react, he is being pulled in for a lariat. Da Silva senses his opportunity and climbs up top, leaping off for his “Hiji No Shi” diving elbow drop finisher. He hooks the leg, and gets the victory.


Winner: Oculta Da Silva (Time: 25:52)

MATCH FOUR
REDGRAVE and ZACK RICHARDS vs. THE HARDY’S


This match begins under tornado rules, meaning that both members of each team can be in the ring at the same time. The rule change doesn’t faze either team. In fact, it makes Redgrave somewhat more excited as it means he’ll be able to flirt with McKenna Hardy throughout the entire match. That’s exactly what he does to start things off, approaching the woman with a flirtatious dance. McKenna isn’t impressed, and completely shuts down his advances. When he doesn’t step down, Junior Hardy decides to take matters into his own hands by dropping him with a right hook. Zack Richards takes exception to this as he takes Junior Hardy down with a Lou Thesz press, and the two roll out of the ring and begin to brawl. This leaves Redgrave in the ring with McKenna Hardy, who feels insulted. She takes the matter personally and decides to make it clear to Redgrave exactly how she feels by taking the fight to him. She throws him into the corner and connects with a running corner clothesline, before leaping onto the top rope and landing on top of him for a springboard moonsault. She hooks the leg and goes for the pin, but Zack Richards yanks her out of the ring.

Junior Hardy chases Zack Richards, who rolls into the ring. Junior Hardy follows him in, but he runs into a Russian legsweep from Redgrave. Redgrave and Zack Richards start to stomp away at Junior’s downed body, but McKenna Hardy enters the ring again to make the save. She leaps at Zack Richards to take him down, but Redgrave is still left assaulting Junior Hardy. That is, however, until he makes a miscalculation on a diving knee drop. He misses Junior entirely and ends up crashing against the canvas, which allows Junior Hardy to connect with a superkick to the kneeling Redgrave. McKenna Hardy takes Zack Richards down with a clothesline, and suddenly The Hardy’s have control of the match. They pull their opponents to their feet and whip them into opposing corners. They link arms in the middle of the ring and spin around, so that they end up swapping opponents. Both Hardy’s charge at Redgrave and Richards, connecting with synchronised running corner splashes. Both men drop forwards against the mat, and then the twins go up top. They leap off, connecting with diving crossbodies. Redgrave, though, catches McKenna Hardy and rolls through, but Junior Hardy is quick to take action by hitting a front dropkick into the back of his sister, sending Redgrave backwards and onto the mat. McKenna stays on top of him for the pin, but it’s not enough for the three count.

Redgrave kicks out of the pin, but the twins aren’t disheartened. They continue, knowing that they have victory in their sights as long as they don’t make any mistakes. They connect with a double hip toss, then into a double cutter. They have everything going their way, or seemingly so. But suddenly Richards and Redgrave spring into life. Redgrave rolls McKenna Hardy into a pinning predicament, while Zack Richards is able to take Junior down with a T-bone suplex. Redgrave hooks the ropes with both hands, making it even more difficult for McKenna to kick out. The referee counts the three, and Redgrave and Zack Richards have stolen the victory and the Japan Openweight Tag Team Championships!


Winner: Redgrave and Zack Richards - New Japan Openweight Tag Team Champions (Time: 20:36)
[/align]


[align=center]Richards and Redgrave roll out of the ring, going wild over their victory - and for good reason. They now go into the record books as the inaugural Japan Openweight Tag Team Champions, despite being second best for most of the match. McKenna Hardy sits on her knees with her head in her hands, unable to believe that the opportunity slipped through her fingers just like that. Her brother begins to console her, reminding her that they will have more opportunities in the future. Redgrave blows a kiss to McKenna Hardy, before kissing the centrepiece of his newly won tag title.[/align]

MATCH FIVE
ESSENCE © and EDDY POE vs. KIRA IZUMI and AKIRA AKIYAMA


When the match begins, Essence and Eddy Poe begin to discuss which of the two is going to start the match off for their team. Akira Akiyama and Kira Izumi have no such discussion, instead deciding to assault Essence and Poe before they can start off properly. The official tries to maintain order, but he decides that it is best to just let things play out. The MURAMASA members start to brutalise their opponents, until they decide to throw Eddy Poe out of the ring to focus their assault on Essence. They whip her into their corner, and at this point Akira Akiyama decides to step out of the ring and onto the apron. With order now enforced, the match is able to properly get underway. Kira Izumi throws Essence against the ropes and takes her down with a spinning waterwheel facebuster. He then tags in Akira, who is intent on finishing the job. She hits a leg drop on the downed Essence, but then quickly tags Kira Izumi back into the match. Izumi waits for Essence to sit up, before knocking her right back down with a shining wizard. The quick tags continue, until Akira decides to go for a cover after a roundhouse kick. Essence kicks out at two, much to the delight of Eddy Poe, who is now back on the ring apron.

Akira pulls Essence back up to her feet, and after a few open-palmed strikes just for the sake of it, she drops her with a spinebuster. She could go for the pin again, but decides not to. Instead, she powerlifts her off the mat and goes to suplex her. But Essence is able to wriggle free and drop back onto the mat. When Akira tries to grab her foot and pull her away, she kicks her away. After quite a struggle, the Gaijin Champion is able to make the tag to Eddy Poe. Poe leaps into the ring all fired up, taking down Akira Akiyama with a clothesline. He doesn’t stop, using his momentum to force Kira Izumi off of the apron with a double axe handle. He turns around and takes Akira down again with a leg lariat, which swings the momentum in his team’s favour. He hooks the leg, but Akiyama kicks out at one. Poe doesn’t let up though, as he continues the offence. He pulls Akira back up and throws her into a corner, where he takes her down with his corner running knee signature. He shoves Akira forward to drop against the mat, while he climbs to the top turnbuckle. He jumps off and takes her down with a diving knee attack, before locking her in a Muay Thai-style choke hold. Kira Izumi has now recovered, and enters the ring to force the break. Eddy looks back, annoyed, before deciding it’d be best to take his anger out on Akira. Kira steps back into his corner, while his partner is being worked over in the opposite corner. Essence tags in, and her and Eddy take Akiyama down with a double arm drag. Essence enters the fray and begins to stomp away at Akira, enjoying the fact that she is finally able to stand over a fallen member of MURAMASA. She goes to lock Akira in her arm trap seated cloverleaf finisher, but she is distracted by the sound of "Water" by Exist Trace hitting the speakers, the theme song of Sasori Saito. Sasori appears at the top of the ramp, making sure she has the attention of both Essence and Eddy Poe. Meanwhile, Akira Akiyama makes the much-needed tag to Kira Izumi. With Essence distracted, Kira is able to knock her out with his Tiger Driver 9q finisher. He drops down to make the cover. By the time Eddy Poe realises what is going on, it’s too late as the three count is made.


Winner: Kira Izumi and Akira Akiyama (Time: 22:01)
[/align]


[align=center]Eddy Poe enters the ring to attempt to break the pin, but he’s far too late. Instead, he walks right into a beat down. Akira Akiyama and Kira Izumi begin the two-on-one assault, beating down Eddy Poe. When Essence begins to come to, Sasori Saito slides into the ring and sees off that problem personally by pulling her up and dropping her with “Satsujin-sha.” Having laid out both competitors, the trio of MURAMASA stand tall once again.[/align]

MATCH SIX
OCULTA SANTOS © vs. HIROTO


Oculta Santos laughs at Hiroto, not buying him as a legitimate contender for his Japan Openweight Championship. He turns to Oculta Da Silva, who has joined him at ring side, and the two share a chuckle. Hiroto has earned his right to qualify for the title by winning the free-for-all during the pre-show. But still, Oculta Santos feels he is unworthy to be standing in HIS ring. He shouts across the ring to Hiroto, claiming that he would stand no chance in a match against “Jikkō-sha” if he was going into it completely fresh, let alone having had a match earlier in the evening. Hiroto doesn’t retaliate, remaining focussed on the task at hand. But when the bell rings, Hiroto proves exactly just how much of a threat to Oculta’s reign he truly is. Straight away he connects with not one, but two spinning wheel kicks. He then slips behind for a German suplex, throwing Santos over his head. Realising he has greatly underestimated Hiroto’s ability, Santos rolls out of the ring to regroup. He deliberates with Da Silva on the outside, and the two re-work their gameplan. As this is happening, the referee begins his count. Realising that he cannot win the title by countout, he takes matters into his own hands. He leaps onto the top rope and takes both Oculta’s down with a springboard plancha. Then he rolls Santos into the ring. This is not an easy task as he’s essentially lifting dead weight, but he manages it. He then climbs to the top rope and when Santos gets back to his feet, takes him down with a diving clothesline. He goes for the cover, but Santos kicks out at two.

Hiroto pulls Santos to his feet and sets up for a double underhook tiger driver. It seems as though he’ll connect without much resistance from Oculta Santos, but an angry Oculta Da Silva is now back up to his feet. He slides into the ring and tackles Hiroto to the ground, repeatedly smashing his head against the canvas. This is where the official decides to step in, pulling Da Silva off to a huge pop. Da Silva gets in his face, as too does Oculta Santos. The referee refuses to be intimidated, and stands his ground. Hiroto approaches from behind and takes Oculta Santos down with a German suplex, before leveling Oculta Da Silva with a Pele kick to send him out of the ring. He resumes control of the match by leveling Oculta Santos with a leg lariat, before connecting with a stiff knee strike. He goes for another cover, but again Santos is able to kick out at two.

Frustrated, Hiroto pulls Oculta Santos back to his feet. He Irish whips him into the ropes, but on the rebound Santos is able to land a European uppercut. This leaves Hiroto groggy, and open to fall victim to a belly-to-belly suplex. A snap elbow drop to the stomach helps take the wind out of Hiroto, but this is merely a distraction. Oculta Santos makes Hiroto focus on getting his breath back, so that he is unopposed when locking in a surfboard stretch. Hiroto shakes his head in pain, refusing to give up. He perseveres through the pain, somehow managing to shift his bodyweight onto Santos’ shoulders. This makes Santos break the hold, as the referee drops down preparing to count his shoulders down. Both Oculta and Hiroto reach their feet, but Hiroto is the faster of the two to react as he charges at Santos and connects with a clothesline. It doesn’t drop him, however, and Hiroto notices this. He runs towards Santos again, but Santos connects with a Pele kick. Hiroto doesn’t fall either, but it does leave him vulnerable to “Kōsei Bomb,” Oculta Santos’ sitout powerbomb finisher. He stays seated to make the cover, pressing Hiroto’s shoulders against the mat. The three count is made, signaling yet another successful defence for Oculta Santos.


Winner: Oculta Santos - Still Japan Openweight Champion (Time: 32:15)
[/align]


[align=center]The arena falls silent, with everybody wondering what s going on. Then, Hoshi Masaru makes his surprise entrance. The crowd erupt, showing respect for a legend of Japanese wrestling.

Hoshi mentions how he used to wrestle in this exact arena, having some great matches with who were the best in the world at that time. He enjoys the reception he’s receiving for a few moments, before continuing. He reminisces about his wrestling career and how unforgettable it was, but then gets on to the real reason for his visit.

He goes on to introduce his son, who he claims is no longer the young lion who the CWC Japan: Legacy crowd were used to seeing. After taking a while away to reinvent himself, Hoshi welcomes his son, Kenji Masaru, down to the ring.

Kenji makes a very different entrance to what the audience was used to from him. Now, his entrance is very elaborate and dazzling that it certainly captures the attention of those in attendance.

Kenji thanks his father for the kind introduction, and goes on to explain his absence. He points out how he had some matches in the company before, but picked up no notable victories. His wrestling skills were always a talking point, but he left to undergo a transformation. He then announces that he’s spoke to the guy who makes the matches, and is happy to say that he will be competing at Legacy #16.

[align=center]#1 CONTENDERSHIP - RISING SUN CHAMPIONSHIP, 45 MINUTE TIME LIMIT
MATCH SEVEN
BLAZING KISUKE vs. KAZUKI


These two men can barely be kept apart before the start of the match, so when the bell rings you can only imagine how quickly they charge at one another. They each start to wildly swing fists at one another, neither stopping to calculate their attacks. Left and rights continue to be thrown, each one connecting. Both men begin to tire themselves out rather quickly, which actually plays more into Blazing KISUKE’s favour. Being the heavier of the two men, he is able to put more power behind his punches, proving to be a difference maker. He lands a strike to the jaw of KAZUKI and, when he stumbles backwards, is able to drop his foe with a short-arm clothesline. It doesn’t keep KAZUKI down for long, as he’s back up almost immediately. He charges at KISUKE, only to get taken down with an arm drag. He tries again, but another arm drag yields the exact same results. Smartly, KAZUKI opts against getting up for a third time. Instead, he rolls out of the ring. Blazing KISUKE follows him, thinking he’s not allowing him chance to recover. But it appears he is instead walking right into KAZUKI’s trap, as KAZUKI immediately rams him into the ring apron. He does this several times, repeatedly doing a lot of damage to Blazing’s lower back and spine. He then aggressively tosses him into the crowd barricade, laughing as he slides into the ring. Reluctantly, the referee begins to count. Blazing KISUKE has until the count of twenty to get back into the ring, and to begin with it very much appears that he is not going to do that. However, with just over one second to spare, Blazing KISUKE springs into life. He leaps up and slides into the ring, not entirely aware of his surroundings.

KAZUKI yanks Blazing to his feet, looking to take out his frustrations on him. He whips him into the ropes, but KISUKE is able to fight back. When KAZUKI crouches down to throw Blazing over his head, Blazing connects with a stiff kick to the shoulder. The kick can be heard throughout the arena, as KAZUKI begins to walk around massaging his shoulder. Blazing takes advantage of the opening, as he takes KAZUKI down with “When the Man Comes Around”, his blue thunder bomb signature. This gives Blazing KISUKE the upper hand, and he takes full advantage of it. Rather than going for the cover, he climbs to the top rope to connect with his top rope diving kick, “Roots of the King.” He doesn’t go for the cover though, interestingly. Instead, he yells at KAZUKI to get up. When KAZUKI does exactly that, Blazing takes him down with “A Different Shade of White”, his signature paydirt. It’s here where he goes for the cover, only managing a two count.

Blazing KISUKE sighs in frustration, thinking he’d done enough for the victory. But it proves to be valuable time wasted, as when he pulls KAZUKI to his feet, KAZUKI ends up landing a jumping high kick. He then regains control of the match by throwing Blazing KISUKE about a bit, usually with a suplex variation. At one point, he strings together a sequence of three different suplexes, following up a belly-to-belly with a fisherman and then a snap double underhook suplex. He goes for a pin, but Blazing is able to kick out.

At this point, both men have tried almost everything in their arsenal to get the victory. But KAZUKI digs down and finds something he hasn’t tried, delivering a few stomps to Blazing KISUKE’s torso to buy him a bit more time. He then begins to stalk his opponent, waiting until he is up to his knees before he can strike. When KISUKE is in a kneeling position, KAZUKI rushes forwards. She throws his foot out for his “Warrior’s Death” finisher, but Blazing KISUKE ducks out of the way. Confused, KAZUKI stops in his tracks but ends up having his feet swiped by Blazing. He tumbles forward, onto his knees. From here, Blazing KISUKE takes the opportunity to lock in his Gogoplata finisher, “Skull Lock.” KAZUKI, wanting to keep his pride intact, flails about in a panic before having no other option but to tap out!


Winner: Blazing KISUKE (Time: 37:52)

[align=center]Before both competitors make their entrance, a video package begins to play on the screen. It showcases the history between the two men, dating back to CWC Worldwide. It cuts in at the moment Mason Wolfe was closing in on the Rising Sun Championship; the moment that this rivalry truly began. Since that night, the two men have been trying to one-up each other. Mason Wolfe may have escaped with a successful title defence in the four way at Legacy #10 “Retaliation”, but a one-on-one match is a very different scenario. Mason Wolfe has always been vocal, but recently Hirokai Yokoza has had a few things to say too. The video clip noticeably includes Hirokai’s backstage segment with Yuri Jigoku, where Yuri says there’d be more honour in taking the Rising Sun Championship from him than there would be Wolfe. In exclusive footage, Mason Wolfe says how this is nothing to do with honour - it’s all about the Rising Sun Championship. Yokoza, on the other hand, feels that it is time to restore the honour to the title that Wolfe has took away from it. As the video package fades out, Hirokai Yokoza makes his entrance.[/align]

MAIN EVENT ONE
HIROKAI YOKOZA vs. MASON WOLFE ©


When Hirokai Yokoza is in the ring, the lights dim in anticipation of Mason Wolfe’s emergence. He makes a very elaborate entrance, somewhat befitting of a Rising Sun Champion. He takes his time making his way down to the ring, starting the mind games early as he tries to get under his opponent’s skin. When Yokoza doesn’t budge, Wolfe hands the title over to the official. When both competitors are ready, the bell rings. Straight away, both men are out of the blocks for a collar-and-elbow tie-up. Hirokai pulls him in for a side headlock, and he seems to have things going his way. But then, Mason Wolfe uses his index finger to poke Yokoza in the eye. The “Hitman” releases him and quickly claps his hands against his face, trying to restore his vision. The crowd make it clear that they disapprove of such tactics, but Mason pays them no attention. In fact, he carries on as though nothing had happened. He whips Hirokai Yokoza into the ropes and takes him down with a discus elbow smash. Yokoza is still rubbing his eyes, and Mason takes advantage of the fact. He pulls him up to his feet yet again, but Hirokai blindly lands a strike at him. Mason stumbles backwards as Yokoza is left swinging at thin air. Mason Wolfe retaliates with a single knee facebreaker, taking Hirokai down to the canvas. He then goes for a pin attempt, hoping to secure the early victory. Unfortunately for him, Hirokai Yokoza kicks out at two.

Immediately, Hirokai scurries towards the corner in an effort to recuperate in hope of finding a way back into the match. Noticing his opponent resting against the bottom turnbuckle, Mason Wolfe begins to stomp away at him. This process continues for several seconds, until the referee is forced to intervene. Satisfied, Mason Wolfe turns his back to his opponent to get the crowd worked up. He stretches out his arms and slightly raises his head, in what is becoming his signature pose. Unbeknownst to him, Hirokai Yokoza is getting to his feet in the background. When Mason Wolfe turns around, he casually swings a roundhouse kick at Hirokai - but when his foot is caught, he finally reaches the realisation: Hirokai can see again. Mason kicks Yokoza away with his foot and then tries to escape the ring, but Hirokai is too quick for him. He gets taken down by a running back elbow, but Hirokai isn’t done there. He aggressively pulls Wolfe to his feet, only to slam him back down again with a huge exploder suplex. The Rising Sun Champion is reeling, and Hirokai Yokoza is taking advantage of that. He punishes Mason similar to the way Mason punished him in the early stages, not giving him a moment to breathe. He connects with a spinning wheel kick, but rather than allowing Wolfe to fall to the mat, he instead props him up only so he can take him down with a double knee backbreaker. He takes full advantage of Wolfe’s vulnerable state by locking him in a crossface. The Rising Sun Champion is struggling, and realises that he has to find a way to escape the hold. At first, he manages to roll Yokoza into a pinning position. But Hirokai just rolls right back into the hold, putting Mason Wolfe right back to square one. Mason squirms around, until eventually he is able to wrap his feet around the bottom rope. A frustrated Hirokai is told to break the hold by the official, and he obliges.

Mason rolls under the bottom rope and onto the ring apron, and Hirokai Yokoza is quick to follow him. Stood on the opposite side of the ropes, he pulls Mason to his feet and props him up. Mason takes a few paces backwards, just enough to build a bit of momentum on his run. But when he charges towards Mason, Wolfe springs into life with a facebreaker onto the top rope. This catches Hirokai completely by surprise, and now he’s on the backpedal. Mason steps back into the ring and delivers a strike to Hirokai’s forehead. It makes Hirokai stagger backwards slightly, but responds with a strike of his own. The two then begin to go at it, trading blow-for-blow. It starts off slow and sluggish, but speeds up in pace significantly. Hirokai Yokoza gains the upperhand and sets up for “The Hit”, but Mason Wolfe is able to wrestle his way out of it. In response, he tries for his “Hollow Point” finisher, but he also fails to connect. Hirokai takes him down with a running headbutt, then pulling him in for a second crossface. Mason Wolfe manages to roll into a pinning position again, but Hirokai releases the hold. Both men begin to fight on their knees, but a sly punch to the stomach is enough to give Wolfe an opening. This time when he goes to connect with his finisher, he succeeds - landing “The Killshot.” He flops on top of Hirokai, exhausted. The official makes the three count, and Mason Wolfe has successfully retained!


Winner: Mason Wolfe - Still Rising Sun Champion (Time: 42:20)

[align=center]CWC JUNIOR HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP, 60 MINUTE TIME LIMIT
MAIN EVENT TWO
SASORI SAITO vs. MARK STORM ©


As she makes her way down the ring, Sasori Saito is accompanied by her MURAMASA partners. Both Akira Akiyama and Kira Izumi make their way down ringside, flanking down either side of Saito. The audience make their distaste towards the group known with a chorus of boos, which has no visible impact on them. They make their way to the ring with a purpose, and that purpose is to claim the CWC Junior Heavyweight Championship. The crowd’s reaction changes entirely when Mark Storm makes his entrance, and after the introductions have been made the official gets the match under way. From the get go, Mark Storm shows everyone why he is the reigning Champion by taking control early on. He levels Saito with a gutwrench powerbomb, catching her by surprise. Her pride somewhat damaged, she pushes her knuckles against the mat to rise to her feet. She approaches him again, only more cautiously this time. It’s not a different outcome though, as Storm easily overpowers her and pulls her in for a side headlock. He marches around the ring with her, before leaning back against the ropes for leverage. He goes for a running bulldog, but Saito is able to slip free and shove him away. Storm holds his lower back, which smacked against the canvas. He gets up, but he’s slower than he’d usually be. Sasori Saito takes advantage of this, as she drills him down onto the mat with a spinebuster. With him on the mat, she has him right where she wants him. She drops an elbow right onto his sternum, taking the wind right out of him. This is followed up with a series of leg drops, each one alternating between the throat and chest of Mark Storm. With the Junior Heavyweight Champion in a desperate position, Sasori Saito locks in her “Sasori-gatame” sharpshooter. Mark Storm yells out, trying to find a way to break the hold. But Sasori’s grip is too strong, and it only worsens when she sits back to apply even more pressure. Storm reaches for the bottom rope, but MURAMASA yelling abuse at him makes his task even more difficult. He has to scratch and claw his way across the ring, eventually able to get his fingertips to the rope.

At first, Sasori Saito refuses to break the hold. But the referee eventually steps in and forces the break, asserting his authority on the match. Saito, furious that the official would have the nerve to step up to her, gets all in his face and tries to intimidate him. This is a miscalculation on her part, as Mark Storm is able to get to his feet. Akira Akiyama goes to swipe at his feet to trip him up, but the referee catches glimpse of this and threatens to throw her out. Akiyama protests her innocence and Saito is further distracted by the entire incident. This allows Storm to stagger forwards and spin Sasori around, before delivering several jabs in quick succession. He then drops her with a discus clothesline, with drops her to her knees. This gives him the chance to connect with a shining wizard, which he takes. Sasori drops forwards onto her stomach, but Mark Storm isn’t done there. He waits for Saito to get back up, and when she does so she unwittingly walks into a butterfly suplex. Mark Storm quickly transitions this into an armbar, but when Sasori Saito begins to squirm around in an attempt to ease the pressure, he releases the hold. This confuses everybody, especially Saito - but his intentions soon become clean. He steps out onto the ring apron and stalks Saito, and when she gets up she’s taken straight back down with “Storm Search”, a springboard cutter. He then climbs to the top rope and tries for a frog splash, but Sasori Saito is able to roll out of the way. Both competitors get to their feet and Sasori charges for a leg lariat, but Storm avoids the contact entirely. A puzzled Sasori turns around, only to be hoisted onto Mark’s shoulders. He then drops her with his “Dystopia” finisher, which has such a large impact that it sends Sasori Saito rolling out of the ring. Realising he has to go through MURAMASA to get to her, he opts to wait it out and allow her back into the ring - knowing that she needs to avoid getting counted out if she wants to win the title. But he spots an opportunity, and when Sasori is back up, Mark Storm charges at her and leaps over the top rope. His suicide dive hits the mark, but not the intended one. Sasori Saito has lightning quick reactions, as she pulls Kira Izumi across to take the blow instead. She rests her elbows against the ring apron, trying to regain her breath. Akira Akiyama offers her advice on the outside, and shortly afterwards Sasori rolls Mark Storm into the ring. She enters almost immediately after, and climbs to the top rope. This time, it is her missing the mark with a frog splash. She drops against the mat and the impact makes her bounce back up to her knees. Mark Storm then pulls her to her feet and turns an Irish whip into a short-arm lariat, his “Storm Strike” finisher. But he cannot quite manage to get it to connect, as Sasori Saito ducks. Still with their arms linked to one another, Saito makes him stagger with a Pele kick. But, as he is unable to fall, she now has the perfect opportunity to connect with “Satsujin-sha,” her inverted stomp facebreaker finisher. With Storm down on the mat, she makes the cover and gets the three count pin. SASORI SAITO IS THE NEW CWC JUNIOR HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!


Winner: Sasori Saito - New CWC Junior Heavyweight Champion (Time: 51:58)

[align=center]#1 CONTENDERSHIP - JAPAN OPENWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP, NO TIME LIMIT
PRE-SHOW - FREE-FOR-ALL
ALEKS BERZINS vs. ALISA RUTSKAYA vs. ASAHI WATANABE vs. HIROTO vs. JESSY TURNER vs. POLLY McPHERSON


This match is very even, with several competitors coming close to winning. Jessy Turner is closing in on victory, but Hiroto is able to intercept her before she can connect with her finisher. He tosses her out of the ring, and when Aleks Berzins staggers towards him, he knocks her out cold with his “Fall Of Man” spinning tombstone finisher. He hooks her leg and gets the pinfall victory, earning the right to challenge for the Japan Openweight Championship. The camera cuts to a distraught Jessy Turner, who has her head in her hands. She came so close to winning, but yet again she had it snatched away from her at the end.

Winner: Hiroto (Time: 25:00)
