It has been an unbelievably hard week on me, to such a level that I cannot remember one this bad before. So when faced with no way to deal with events around you, it's time to return to the one thing you CAN control...
----
- Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON returned to action with the first show in the CRIMSON RESONANCE tour. No advanced matches were released for any of the events, significantly harming attendance...
- True to his word, Akuma Toyota had formed a new team with "Texas Outlaw" Jake Bishop as the new top two of HEAVY WAR. The two behemoths proved to be an effective team as they put down C-1 Heavyweight Champion Nobuyori Shimizu and Hiroshi Kuroki, Bishop pinning Kuroki with the Texan Bomber. Kuriyama and Daishi were "banished" to the opening matches, where they defeated the top two of the second class of AVENIR, Keiji Hirano and Shuji Kawashima.
- KYOURUI 6 have reclaimed the PWC Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Championships. PHOENIX and Keoni Murata proved to still be an effective duo despite the turmoil surrouding Murata and Arakaki within the group. PHOENIX righted their upset loss to Bloody Gears' Strong Tomizaki and Kazuya Endo by trapping Tomizaki in his neigh unbreakable Another Space for the submission victory. With this, KYOURUI 6 now control every title in Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON with the exception of the C-1 Heavyweight Championship...

- Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON headed to the Ishinomaki City Gymnasium for a strong showing of over three thousand two hundred fans in attendance.
- Once again, AVENIR 2.0 fell to AVENIR 1.0 as Kenjiro Amagawa spiked Shuji Kawashima with a Backdrop Hold for the three count. Keiji Hirano's patience finally snapped, as he demanded to face Kenjiro Amagawa in a singles match at Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON's Anniversary on 10/13! Amagawa attempted to persuade Hirano away from this decision, however; the hotheaded Hirano would have none of it. Reluctantly, Amagawa agreed.
- KYOURUI 6 continued their complete domination in the fourth match, as Hiroyuki Takano led Tsuruya, PHOENIX & Akahito Yamada to victory over Bloody Gears. After dropping Endo with the Kubikari Driller, Takano announced that he would be at ringside for the main event as the "rightful next challenger" as Unified Openweight Champion. Takano would later appear between the C-1 Jr. and C-1 HW title matches in a dapper black suit with both championships on his shoulders...
- Akuma Toyota and "Texas Outlaw" Jake Bishop gained revenge for their own loss this tour, as the massive duo bested Takayuki Ariwa and Toshiro Noguchi, with Bishop landing his patented "Texan Bomber" on Takayuki Ariwa for the victory. The real story came after the match was over, as "MOTOR HEAD" began to play bringing in Pro-Wrestling DYNAMITE's Yujiro Higuchi! The two former MISSION:POWER members stood in the ring together for the first time in quite some time. Higuchi, wearing jeans and a black t-shirt announced that he had been sent back to CRIMSON with a declaration of challenge by Higuchi's leader. Without revealing names, Higuchi demanded to know if Toyota accepted the challenge. Even without the mention of his name, many audience members immediately picked up on who this "leader" was...Toyota replied telling Higuchi to pick the date and time. Higuchi stated that it would be a tag team match, then Higuchi pointed at the CRIMSON Anniversary "10/13/10" banner hanging from the ceiling, adding that it was "Time to finish what was started almost three years ago"...
- True to his word, Keoni Murata revived the old Keoni Murata who was a champion of heroes for Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON against HANGUN and the MILLENNIUM STARS for years. Murata faced off against Kenta Arakaki wearing his old yellow trunks with his hair returned to his natural black color. In addition, Murata wrestled a purely clean match using many of his technical wrestling tricks he'd abandoned when he joined Yankizoku last year. Murata tried his very hardest to wrestle the C-1 Junior-Heavyweight Champion from Kenta Arakaki as KYOURUI 6 (minus Takano) watched from ringside. In the end, what has been true for years was true once again, as Murata simply couldn't keep up with the much younger Arakaki. Eventually Arakaki took control over Murata and brutally wore down the legend before finishing Murata off with the Hikitsuri. Post-Match, Arakaki laid into Murata verbally with everything he could think of. Arakaki accused Murata of being "soft", "weak", an "old man", and a "goody goody". Arakaki even went as far as to suggest he would banish Murata from KYOURUI 6 himself. Arakaki did not notice PHOENIX climbing in the ring, until he was suddenly shoved away from Murata. In a rare act of friendship in a group of tyrants, PHOENIX began to angrily shout at Arakaki to "know his place" within KYOURUI 6, calling Murata a "valuable member" of their group and a champion. Arakaki argued back, but was stopped cold when PHOENIX simply stated that if Arakaki didn't back down, HE would challenge Arakaki for the C-1 Junior-Heavyweight Championship. Showing restraint (and perhaps fear of PHOENIX), Kenta Arakaki suddenly changed tunes and became friendly. The C-1 Junior-Heavyweight Champion began to praise Murata's skills and attempted to placate PHOENIX as KYOURUI 6 wandered backstage...
- Makoto Saito, after five years in and out of Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON finally received his first C-1 Heavyweight Championship match against incumbent champion Nobuyori Shimizu. Unluckily for Saito, Shimizu was not prepared to give up the championship without a serious, serious fight. Saito found himself bombarded early on in the match by Shimizu's high impact, and high spurted offense. However, Saito found the answer to the energy of Shimizu by targeting Shimizu's legs with strong leg kicks, attacks, and submissions to wear the champion steadily down. As is Shimizu's custom, no amount of damage would make Shimizu give in to Saito's painful holds forcing Saigo to eventually change tactics by headhunting for the knock out. Saito nearly scored a KO off a high kick, but Shimizu climbed to his feet at the count of nine, only to be immediately dropped with a savate kick into a Shiraku Blade. Yet, somehow, Shimizu once again climbed to his feet to retain his championship. Saito went for a kill blow with the Shinto Akuji, but this proved to be a turning point in the match as Shimizu dodged Saito's diving kick leading to a volley of elbow's, followed by a running elbow to the back of Saito's head, and one to the face. When Saito rolled out of the ring, Shimizu followed with an Elbow suicidia. From then on, the match was fully on as both men traded moves and bombs that would take out a normal man many times over. Saito had all the desire, heart, and determination of a champion but Shimizu held the championship experience which proved to be the deciding factor. Shimizu waited Saito out, allowing Saito to fire off all his powerful moves before countering with pinpoint attacks; The end result; Saito wounded and Shimizu unwounded. Shimizu pressed his advantage with elbows and even a Thunder Fire Powerbomb, but Saito survived all of them. Finally, one last desperate Tsuyosa German Suplex planted Saito on his shoulders for the three count giving Shimizu his SEVENTH defense of the C-1 Heavyweight Championship!
- After Shimizu had recovered, the title presentation was held with Hiroyuki Takano lurking in the shadows watching Shimizu. During his microphone appeal, Shimizu finally could not take it anymore, and demanded to know what Takano wanted. The KYOURUI 6 leader approached Shimizu with a cheshire's grin, before simply telling Shimizu that he wanted his "rightful" championship match. Shimizu considered Takano's demand, before informing the KYOURUI 6 leader that he didn't feel like rewarding Takano for his thuggish behavior and would face a DIFFERENT challenger at the CRIMSON Anniversary! Takano's grin fell, twisted in a face of pure anger but when Shimizu refused to back down, Takano nodded before backing off himself. Shimizu watched Takano until he climbed out onto the apron, before turning around to address the crowd once again. As the fans screamed, Takano leaped over the top rope back in the ring, before BRAINING Shimizu in the back of the head with one of his championships. Takano went to work with his designer shoes, kicking at the prone unconscious body of Shimizu. the STRONGEST CRIMSON ARMY charged the ring forcing Takano to flee the ring, but in fleeing Takano scooped up the C-1 Heavyweight Championship. Safely at ringside, now surrounded by KYOURUI 6, Takano screamed that if Shimizu wanted his championship back, he would HAVE to face him at the CRIMSON Anniversary now!

When Saito rolled out of the ring, Shimizu followed with an Elbow suicidia. From then on, the match was fully on as both men traded moves and bombs that would take out a normal man many times over. Saito had all the desire, heart, and determination of a champion but Shimizu held the championship experience which proved to be the deciding factor. Shimizu waited Saito out, allowing Saito to fire off all his powerful moves before countering with pinpoint attacks; The end result; Saito wounded and Shimizu unwounded. Shimizu pressed his advantage with elbows and even a Thunder Fire Powerbomb, but Saito survived all of them. Finally, one last desperate Tsuyosa German Suplex planted Saito on his shoulders for the three count giving Shimizu his SEVENTH defense of the C-1 Heavyweight Championship!
- After Shimizu had recovered, the title presentation was held with Hiroyuki Takano lurking in the shadows watching Shimizu. During his microphone appeal, Shimizu finally could not take it anymore, and demanded to know what Takano wanted. The KYOURUI 6 leader approached Shimizu with a cheshire's grin, before simply telling Shimizu that he wanted his "rightful" championship match. Shimizu considered Takano's demand, before informing the KYOURUI 6 leader that he didn't feel like rewarding Takano for his thuggish behavior and would face a DIFFERENT challenger at the CRIMSON Anniversary! Takano's grin fell, twisted in a face of pure anger but when Shimizu refused to back down, Takano nodded before backing off himself. Shimizu watched Takano until he climbed out onto the apron, before turning around to address the crowd once again. As the fans screamed, Takano leaped over the top rope back in the ring, before BRAINING Shimizu in the back of the head with one of his championships. Takano went to work with his designer shoes, kicking at the prone unconscious body of Shimizu. the STRONGEST CRIMSON ARMY charged the ring forcing Takano to flee the ring, but in fleeing Takano scooped up the C-1 Heavyweight Championship. Safely at ringside, now surrounded by KYOURUI 6, Takano screamed that if Shimizu wanted his championship back, he would HAVE to face him at the CRIMSON Anniversary now!
