Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON ~ 7/13/08 @ Ohasama Town Country Plaza

A rearranged Ohasama Town Country Plaza saw an overfilled crowd gather for the first event of Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON’s latest tour. The opening match saw MILLENNIUM STARS square off as the “Sex Symbol” Ryoma Inoue took on the “Assistant to the Stars” Ichiyo Tatsuko…Before the match began, Inoue began to demand that Tatsuko lay down for him. Without S.K., the role of leadership fell to SLAYER, who Tatsuko pleaded with to get his permission to wrestle the match. SLAYER appeared to either not understand, or not care and Tatsuko’s pleas fell to deaf ears. The assistant did as he was told, and physically laid down for Inoue, giving Inoue the victory! Tatsuko looked crestfallen, but Inoue tried to cheer up the assistant by telling him that he had saved himself a beating. Tatsuko was still sad, despite Inoue’s efforts.

Seven of the top juniors in Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON clashed in the second match. And Kazuki Takagi. Led by C-1 Junior-Heavyweight Champion Hayato Saigo, Keoni Murata was able to score the victory over OVERTHROW’s Natsuo Sakoda with a Backdrop Hold. One of the highlights of the match was Kazuki Takagi attempting a plancha over the ropes, but comically fell and crashed to the ground when everyone fled in the wake of catching his mass. Saigp promised in front of the rabid Iwate fans to retain his championship over DYNAMITE’s Shino Hiriyama, and that he would exert himself as the “strongest junior” in Pro-Wrestling.

Despite the dissolution of HEROICS, SLAYER and HANZO met in the third match of the night. The two have had some history stemming from the feud, and fought like well known rivals. HANZO used his quickness and the experience he has to counter SLAYER’s slow, but never ending assault. HANZO blasted SLAYER with all his signature moves including the Metsubushi and the Shobo, but SLAYER would not fall or stay down. Eventually, HANZO’s speed began to naturally fall, allowing SLAYER to get offense. SLAYER’s assault decimated HANZO, before he gave him a WICKED Powerbomb followed by the Zanzai Lariat for the pinfall victory.

Many fans in Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON are beginning to have doubts about MOUJA, and tonight’s semi final only seemed to strengthen those thoughts, Seiji Ebisawa, Takayuki Ariwa & Hiroyuki Takano went to battle against Nobuyori Shimizu, Toshiro Noguchi, and Eisaku Shimura. Shimizu and Noguchi tore into MOUJA with ferocity over Ariwa & Takano’s betrayals while keeping Ebisawa at bay. To his credit, Eisaku Shimura looked to be in great condition as he fought alongside Shimizu and Noguchi in the fight. Shimizu and Ariwa paired off for most of the bout, with both men landing nasty blows on the other, including an Angelos that knocked Shimizu into the crowd. However, the fans were turned completely to one side as MOUJA showed the “darkness” that gives them strength, as they mauled Noguchi and Shimura while Shimizu was taken care of. All three liberally attacked, interfered, and delayed the offensive chances of their opponents to the point where the fans began to actually boo MOUJA for their almost cowardly actions. Shimizu would return and even the match, but the weakness of Eisaku Shimura could not be contained for long, as he was hit with Takayuki Ariwa’s Angelos and covered for the three count fall to give MOUJA their first victory as a unit!

Yuki Nomura and his team for the main event came to the ring early as MOUJA and their opponents had yet to leave…Nomura took up a microphone, and a talk session evolved. Nomura accused Ebisawa of being the “original terrorist” of Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON, reminding the fans of Ebisawa’s invasion with Spirit International…Ebisawa AGREED with Nomura. Nomura claimed that Ebisawa was trying to use MOUJA and CRIMSON as a way to bolster his career…Ebisawa responded that it could be possible. This kept going, with Nomura accusing Ebisawa of everything he could think of…and all Ebisawa would do was either confirm, or agree that Nomura’s accusations were possible. In the end, Nomura was absolutely fuming, as Ebisawa politely told Nomura, that regardless of what he thought he had no choice but to trust him to defeat Tatsumichi Akamatsu…”At any cost”. This mentioning of Akamatsu led directly to the main event, as MOUJA stayed at ringside to watch the match.

The BLACKHEARTS were at full force with their “regular army” with the exception of “Black Listed” Daisuke Yamazaki. Akuma Toyota and Goro Iijima led Keiji Hirano, “Texas Outlaw” Jake Bishop and Rui Kuriyama into warfare against Yuki Nomura, Kenjiro Amagawa, Mikio Tsuruya, Izumo Yoritomo & Shuji Kawashima. Like most main events with the BLACKHEARTS versus CRIMSON, there was an out of control element early in the match, but it would be AKUMA TOYOTA who would settle things down a minute or two into the match, as he grabbed a microphone. He called MOUJA “cheating filth” before stating that the BLACKHEARTS were above the tactics MOUJA had used, and insisted that the match be a CLEAN battle. Suspecting a trick, Nomura took a microphone and asked for clarification on this “change of philosophy” from the BLACKHEARTS…Toyota gave his reason: He has supreme authority under Akamatsu, and from now on, the BLACKHEARTS would win this war fighting within the boundaries of rules! This announcement caught all the other BLACKHEARTS off guard, but Toyota screamed at them to “live up to Akamatsu-sama’s standards” and that they didn’t NEED trickery to rule the wrestling world! Nomura and his team pondered this decision by Toyota...but then agreed to a normal wrestling match without the usual chaotic nature that is usually in their matches!

The match finally got under way, and the two teams did their up-most to adhere to this new standard that had been set. At ringside, Seiji Ebisawa seemed bemused at Toyota’s decision. Of course, old habits die hard, and Keiji Hirano couldn’t resist coming into the ring illegally and low blowing Izumo Yoritomo, for old time’s sake. Even without the chaotic nature of the matches, and trickery, the BLACKHEARTS proved to be an incredible challenge for the CRIMSON team, as double champion Akuma Toyota was a wall that none could seem to climb. In the end, Akuma Toyota would score the decisive victory as he nailed Shuji Kawashima with a Lariat for the pinfall victory. As if on cue, MOUJA stormed the ring and began to violently attack the wounded BLACKHEART members. The BLACKHEARTS used their number advantage to fight back, but MOUJA had rested during the match and kept the attack up. The CRIMSON forces were dumbfounded at this latest development, until Yuki Nomura ran up to Seiji Ebisawa and pulled him off his attack on Keiji Hirano…Only to have Ebisawa BLAST him in the face with an elbow! Nomura crashed to the ground, as Ebisawa began to scream at Nomura that there was “No safe ground in war”, before the MOUJA forces left the ring and went through the crowd to an exist. In their wake, they left two sides of a conflict bitterly confused, and the fans without a full idea of what would happen next…
