Toru Yano earned revenge for his recent failed attempt to win the GHC Heavyweight Title today, as he and Iizuka made a successful V2 defense of the GHC Tag Team Title against KENTA & Yoshihiro Takayama. Yano scored the win directly by pinning the GHC Heavyweight Champion and the CHAOS tandem now turn their attention to New Japan’s 6/22 show where they along with Archer & Davey Boy Smith Jr. challenge Tenzan & Kojima for the IWGP Tag Team Title in a 3WAY Match.

Kazuchika Okada, one of Japanese pro wrestling’s biggest breakout stars in years, dominated the 2012 Tokyo Sports awards. Not only did he become the MVP aged just 25 but his memorable match with Tanahashi on June 16th, when Tanahashi won the IWGP Heavyweight Title back from Okada, was named Best Bout. Along with these two awards, Shinsuke Nakamura added a third for New Japan by winning the Technique Prize while New Japan legend Seiji Sakaguchi picked up a Lifetime Achievement Prize.

Satoshi Kojima failed in his attempt to win the GHC Heavyweight Title in the main event of NOAH’s Sumo Hall show on which the legendary Kenta Kobashi announced he is retiring from pro wrestling. NOAH has been struggling more and more since the death of Misawa but was able to draw a reasonable attendance of 7,500 (if real) for the show.

After two successful ventures into NOAH, beating Marufuji in a singles match and with Tenzan defeating Sugiura & Yone yesterday, Satoshi Kojima will challenge Takeshi Morishima for the GHC Heavyweight Title on NOAH’s 12/9 Sumo Hall show in the main event. Yuji Nagata is also in NOAH at the moment as part of the Global League and defeated Go Shiozaki on day one of the tournament so the third generation remains very active even if not the leading force in New Japan these days.

After some confusion over whether New Japan would take part, the company today announced lineups for the joint New Japan/All Japan 40th anniversary shows in Taiwan next month. Compared to the Sumo Hall show in July these are very low key, with New Japan unable to dispatch top stars like Tanahashi, Nakamura, Okada, Goto, Makabe, Naito, and Devitt because the company has a tour going at the same time in Japan. So older heads like Nagata, TenKoji, and Liger have been tasked with leading the company on these shows against near enough All Japan’s entire native roster. Koji Kanemoto, who spends most of his time in All Japan these days but is still a New Japan wrestler, represents New Japan in a series of interesting interpromotional matches including one battle with his Junior Stars friend Minoru Tanaka. Another big junior match pits Liger against Kaz Hayashi, while probably the biggest heavyweight match is the 10/28 main event of Tenzan, Kojima & Wataru vs. Muto, Funaki & Hayashi.

Satoshi Kojima’s busy interpromotional schedule also sees him go to NOAH soon where he faces Naomichi Marufuji in a singles match. On the heels of his failure to take the IWGP Heavyweight Title from Tanahashi, Marufuji will be looking to bounce back with a win over the IWGP Tag Team Champion.

Bad Intentions finally relinquished their grip on NOAH’s GHC Tag Team Title earlier, just 2 1/2 weeks after losing the IWGP Tag Team Title to TenKoji. They were beaten by one of NOAH’s most reputable tag teams of past years, Triple Crown holder Jun Akiyama and the now-freelance Akitoshi Saito. Despite losing both titles, Bernard and Anderson will go down in record books for being the most successful IWGP Tag Team Champions in a single reign ever and also the first team to hold both the IWGP and GHC Tag Team titles at the same time.

Bad Intentions will make their V3 defense of the GHC Tag Team Title on NOAH soil against one of NOAH’s most successful tag teams of the past, Triple Crown holder Jun Akiyama and former New Japan wrestler Akitoshi Saito, who held the belts for close to a year in 2002-2003. This big match will take place on 1/22 at Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium but of course Bad Intentions, who are again angry at being overlooked by Tokyo Sports for the Best Tag Team award after a historic record-breaking year, must first focus on defending the IWGP Tag Team Title at the Tokyo Dome against TenKoji.

Masakatsu Funaki returns to his original home at last! New Japan announced five matches for “NJPW 40TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR ~ WRESTLE KINGDOM VI IN TOKYO DOME”, Japanese professional wrestling’s annual super-show at the Tokyo Dome in January. Funaki, who many New Japan fans have long waited to see in the company where he was trained, teams up with Masayuki Kono against Yuji Nagata & Wataru Inoue in a special tag match. New Japan and NOAH go to war as old rivals Hirooki Goto and Takashi Sugiura lock horns, while CHAOS’ Shinsuke Nakamura & Toru Yano do battle with the duo of GHC Heavyweight Champion, Go Shiozaki, and Naomichi Marufuji. TenKoji’s revival grants them a shot at the most dominant IWGP Tag Team Champions in history, Bad Intentions, meaning whether they win or lose, Bernard & Anderson’s reign will have gone from 2010, all the way 2011, and into 2012. And of course, as we all knew, Hiroshi Tanahashi attempts to become the most successful IWGP Heavyweight Champion to ever live as he makes his V11 defense of the prestigious belt against Minoru Suzuki in the main event. More matches are yet to be added but these five promise lots of excitement.

Shiozaki is the reigning GHC Heavyweight Champion and just bypassed a tough V2 defense against Yoshihiro Takayama, so will be looking to become a 2-crown champion like both Bernard and Anderson are at the moment.

Bernard & Anderson can clearly be considered easily the top team in Japan nowadays, holding both New Japan and NOAH’s tag belts, and today’s victory came over Takeshi Morishima & Yutaka Yoshie, with Bernard pinning Yoshie after the Magic Killer.

Koji Kanemoto and Tiger Mask’s four month reign of the GHC Jr. Tag Team Title finally ended today at NOAH’s second Christmas show. Where KENTA and Atsushi Aoki had previously failed, Naomichi Marufuji and Aoki succeeded, Aoki pinning the man who defeated him in the 2009 Best of the Super Jr. semi finals, Kanemoto, to reclaim the tag belts for NOAH.

* Ishii tried to tear off Tiger’s mask, leading the DQ, and it appears these two have a feud going.
* TAJIRI misted Yano before rolling him up for the win.
* The IWGP Jr. Tag Team Title match was said to be off the charts, with some going as far to label it the best match of 2010 and worth the PPV price alone. Definitely look out for this one soon! Devitt’s 2-crown reign comes to an end after he is pinned by his BOSJ final opponent, Ibushi, and the belts enter DDT custody!
* The G1 Tag League 2010 tandems were announced after the fifth match.
- Block A: Togi Makabe & Tomoaki Honma, Hirooki Goto & Tama Tonga, Manabu Nakanishi & Strong Man, Yuji Nagata & Wataru Inoue, Super Strong Machine & King Fale, Masato Tanaka & Tomohiro Ishii.
- Block B: Hiroshi Tanahashi & TAJIRI, Bad Intentions (Giant Bernard & Karl Anderson), Shinsuke Nakamura & Daniel Puder, Toru Yano & Takashi Iizuka, NO LIMIT (Yujiro Takahashi & Tetsuya Naito), El Terrible & El Texano Jr.
* The New Japan vs. NOAH tag match was another excellent battle with Shiozaki just falling short of his target of avenging his G1 loss to Nagata.
* Goto scored a big win over Nakamura in what was described as yet another great match. Goto’s credentials for a title match went up with this victory.
* Tanahashi defeated Naito in yes, you guessed it, another fantastic match between two of New Japan’s most gifted wrestlers. Naito struggled in a Texas Cloverleaf hold for a while before giving up. The impression from this match was that Naito is going to go right to the top sooner or later.
* Makabe’s first IWGP Heavyweight Title reign went wrong in his V3 defense! G1 Climax 2010 winner Satoshi Kojima began his second reign as champion after an epic war which saw him counter lariat Makabe for a very hard fought victory.
* Despite Nakamura’s loss to Goto, Kojima nominated him as his V1 defense, as Shinsuke beat Kojima during the G1 making him a worthy challenger.
* The show was said to have been one to remember with each of the last five matches worth going out of your way to see.

New Japan sent three stars to Pro Wrestling NOAH’s latest big anniversary show at the 12,000 seat Tokyo Ariake Coloseum Colosseum today as the interpromotional work continued after the G1.

Go Shiozaki and Shinsuke Nakamura cancelled each other out on the last day of the G1, denying each other the chance of reaching the final. Today they met with no time limit to prevent a possible draw and Nakamura suffered an upset loss to the young ace of NOAH, who pinned Nakamura after a modification of the Go Flasher. This, his failure to recapture the IWGP Heavyweight Title from Makabe in July, and not reaching the G1 final has mean Nakamura has had a slow patch after a destructive year prior to losing the belt to Makabe earlier this year.

Tiger Mask, just back from injury, formed an all-star team with Koji Kanemoto to challenge NOAH’s GHC Jr. Tag Team Champions, Taiji Ishimori & Ricky Marvin. This was the champions’ V3 defense of the belts they won in February but the veterans proved too much for the speedy younger wrestlers, Kanemoto dropping Marvin with a Tiger suplex for the win and belts. Kanemoto & Tiger Mask become the first New Japan team to win this title and now the GHC Heavyweight Title remains the only major NOAH belt to have never entered New Japan custody. Kanemoto & Tiger were challenged by Yoshinobu Kanemaru & Genba Hirayanagi post-match with their V1 defense already set for NOAH’s 8/28 Korakuen Hall show.

G1 Climax winner Satoshi Kojima also appeared on the event ahead of his upcoming IWGP Heavyweight Title shot, lariating Mohammed Yone in 12 minutes.

Togi Makabe will challenge Takashi Sugiura for the GHC Heavyweight Title on February 28th at Tokyo Nippon Budokan. Makabe is currently in NOAH with Honma as part of the Global Tag League ‘10, where they have one win (over Bison Smith & Keith Walker) and one loss (to Sugiura & Shuhei Taniguchi). Oddly though, it is their only non-tournament match that has caught most of the attention so far, when they defeated Sugiura & Atsushi Aoki, with Makabe pinning the GHC Heavyweight Champion.

Sugiura has lots of recent history with the “4 Heroes”, having dominated Hirooki Goto in their singles match series but having unavenged losses to Nakamura, Tanahashi, and Makabe. At Budokan, he’ll have his chance to avenge those two pinfall losses to Makabe and perhaps afterwards will turn his eyes to the top two of New Japan, Nakamura and Tanahashi.

Kazuchika Okada has emerged from the opening match to try and make a name for himself in the NOAH feud, with two appearances in tags against NOAH opposition recently. Next month he faces NOAH’s top ace candidate Go Shiozaki in a match that gives both men a chance to show something. And the feud between Hirooki Goto and Takashi Sugiura could be settled as the two go to war in a battle of men pushing towards the top of their respective promotions right now.
