These two shows are going to overlap each other and I thought it'd be funny if all the reaction posts were merged together. CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL Saitama Super Arena Promotions: TJPW, DDT, NOAH, GANPRO, NJPW 2pm JST/4pm AEDT/6am BST/1am EDT/10pm PDT *Dark matches will probably start earlier Live With English Commentary on Wrestle Universe DOMINION Osaka Jo Hall Promotions: NJPW, IMPACT, AEW 2pm JST/4pm AEDT/6am BST/1am EDT/10pm PDT Live With English Commentary on NJPW World CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL CARD 0. STARTING BATTLE KICKOFF ~ DDT Provided Tag Match 0. STARTING BATTLE 2 ~ TJPW Provided 10-Woman Tag Match: Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino, Pom Harajuku, Haruna Neko & YuuRI Vs Nao Kakuta, Mahiro Kiryu, Moka Miyamoto, Arisu Endo & Kaya Toribami quote:Raku is off the show due to being in poor physical condition this week. YuuRI from Ganpro takes her place in the Tokyo Joshi Pro 10-Woman Tag Match on the pre-show. 0. STARTING BATTLE 3 ~ DDT Vs Ganbare☆Pro Battle: Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani Vs Ken Ohka, Yuna Manase & Mizuki Watase quote:The final press conference for the show included a confrontation between Eruption and Ganbare☆Pro. Everyone noticed that Ken Ohka was missing until he showed up once again all rolled up in tape. He said he was the first person to show up today and when he went to the restroom, somebody attacked him from behind and rolled him up in tape. Yukio Sakaguchi denied doing it but later posted a picture of himself and Hideki Okatani holding Ohka hostage in said restroom. Saki Akai also joked that Ohka should avoid going to the toilet in Saitama Super Arena or else it will happen to him again. Despite the attempt to wind up Ganpro, Ohka prevented Mizuki Watase and Yuna Manase from starting a fight with Eruption right there. quote:There will be an announcement from Keiji Muto before the main show begins. 1. NOAH Vs DDT Battle: Kinya Okada & Kai Fujimura Vs Toi Kojima & Yuya Koroku quote:Toi Kojima & Yuya Koroku are joining forces for the young battle between DDT and NOAH. Koroku said everything he’s learned in BURNING will make him absolutely unbeatable and prove that DDT is better than NOAH. Kojima was injured at last year’s “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL” and was left frustrated by the amount of time he missed because of it. This match will be his chance to make up for it and put that negative part of his career to bed. Kai Fujimura promises to show he has the responsibility, confidence and pride to be a NOAH wrestler. Kinya Okada however is disappointed to still be in the opening match for the second year in a row against similar opponents he beat last time. Kojima and Okada then began arguing over which company has better training. When the NOAH team left, Kojima was visibly angry over the argument. 2. TJPW Provided 6-Woman Tag Match: Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Juria Nagano Vs Hikari Noa, Suzume & Yuki Arai quote:Juria Nagano has been appointed the Chairwoman of the CyberFight Festival 2022 TikTok Committee. She will supervise the TikTok accounts belonging to DDT and NOAH to reach out to a larger audience and create buzz for the show. 3. DDT Provided 8-Man Tag Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari & Akito “Cochin” Nishigaki Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Kendo Kashin, Shinya Aoki & Yumiko Hotta 4. Princess Of Princess Title Next Challenger Decision 4 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Mizuki Vs Yuki Kamifuku Vs Miu Watanabe 5. NOAH Provided 10-Man Tag Match: Takashi Sugiura, Kazuyuki Fujita, Masa Kitamiya, Daiki Inaba & Shuhei Taniguchi Vs Michael Elgin, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr., Rene Dupree, Simon Gotch & Timothy Thatcher quote:Rob Van Dam is in the country and ready to wrestle his first match in Japan since 2014. He wants to show everyone he is still RVD and is happy to be in the ring with Yoshinari Ogawa again. The two wrestled together in All Japan during the mid 1990s. 6. DDT Provided 8-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Naomi Yoshimura, Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Asuka 7. NOAH Provided 6-Man Tag Match: Rob Van Dam, Yoshinari Ogawa & HAYATA Vs Kaito Kiyomiya, Daisuke Harada & YO-HEY 8. NOAH Vs DDT Battle: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Kazusada Higuchi Vs Katsuhiko Nakajima, Atsushi Kotoge & Yoshiki Inamura quote:Kazusada Higuchi has refused to be on the same page as Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama for their inter-promotional match against NOAH, believing he can do it by himself. The three were given a chance to team up and test the waters against HARASHIMA, Yoshimura & Soma Takao. Higuchi kept his distance from his partners and had to be inadvertently tagged out to get the others involved in the match. When he got back in he continued fighting by himself so Endo & Akiyama had to come to the rescue. They cut off HARASHIMA & Yoshimura so Higuchi could beat Takao. 9. NOAH Vs DDT Battle ~ Special Single Match: Kenoh Vs Daisuke Sasaki quote:Kenoh demanded his match against Daisuke Sasaki be turned into a Hardcore Match. Sasaki attacked Kenoh with a stun gun during last weekend’s NOAH show (and attacked him the same way during an online broadcast earlier today). Kenoh claims that CyberAgent chose him to be the PR Director for the show which gives him the power to demand the match stipulation. On the one hand Kenoh is pleased because it shows that CyberAgent recognises his importance but the role is small enough to also suggest that Sanshiro Takagi thinks he is incompetent to do anything better. 10. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Yuka Sakazaki quote:Freshly back from America, Yuka Sakazaki is ready to take on Shoko Nakajima for the Princess Of Princess Title. She wants to have a fight with Nakajima that their juniors who grew up watching them have longed to see. Sakazaki also hopes the match will be one that a cheering crowd will be proud of. Nakajima calls Sakazaki one of the best TJPW wrestlers in the world who is improving with a lot of new experience from her matches in America. Even though Nakajima is the champion, her opponent is so strong it feels like she is the challenger again. Nakajima said she will be setting off the biggest fireworks in Saitama Super Arena and show she is more than just a strong wrestler. 11. GHC Heavyweight Title: Go Shiozaki (c) Vs Satoshi Kojima DOMINION CARD 1st Match: Hiroyoshi Tenzan, Master Wato & Ryusuke Taguchi vs United Empire (TJP, Francesco Akira & Aaron Henare) quote:Kicking off the afternoon’s action, a six man battle will see a preivew of championship action one week later. On June 20, Francesco Akira and TJP will challenge IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Team Six or Nine. Can they continue to ride a hot hand in Osaka Jo? 2nd Match: Los Ingobernables De Japon (Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI & Hiromu Takahashi) vs BULLET CLUB (Ace Austin, El Phantasmo & Taiji Ishimori) quote:A six man preview of June 21’s IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship match between Hiromu Takahashi and Taiji Ishimori, the head up a trio from LIJ and BULLET CLUB, including BC’s newest member Ace Austin. Austin turned his back on a friendship with Alex Zayne to join BULLET CLUB on June 3, a jump that the X Division Champion declared was ‘inevitable’. How will he gel with new partners tonight? 3rd Match: Toru Yano vs Doc Gallows quote:A special singles bout will see Toru Yano face Doc Gallows. After The Good Brothers returned to Japan on May 1 for Dontaku, Doc Gallows would have his first official NJPW match in Japan in over six years, but would be the recipient of some humiliating antics from Toru Yano. Yano would spray gallows with disinfectant, stating that he was ‘trying to clean his tiny brain’, before targeting the big man’s beard; backstage Gallows would issue a singles challenge for Dominion saying the ‘comedy act is over’. Will Yano be able to outsmart the powerful Gallows in Osaka? 4th Match: NEVER Openweight 6 Man Tag Team Championships: Suzuki-Gun (Yoshinobu Kanemaru, El Desperado & Zack Sabre Jr.) vs HOUSE OF TORTURE (EVIL, SHO & Yujiro Takahashi) quote:The first of six championship matches on the night will see Suzuki-Gun move to capture HOUSE OF TORTURE’s NEVER six man titles. During Best of the Super Jr., Yoshinobu Kanemaru became the ‘Babyface Master’ for a night when he outsmarted SHO en route to an easy victory, putting SHO out of the tournament to the delight of fans worldwide. After securing victory with the Touch Out, Kanemaru was quick to grab one of the NEVER 6 man belts, and further soldified that claim alongside Zack Sabre Jr. when the dup beat EVIL and SHO in the Budokan on June 3. ZSJ said he would be happy to provide an assist in defeating the ‘house of dickheads’ and now this title match is official. Could H.O.T’s seven month reign be meeting its end? 5th Match: IWGP Tag Team Championships: United Empire (Jeff Cobb & Great-O-Khan) vs BULLET CLUB (Bad Luck Fale & Chase Owens) quote:Bad Luck Fale and Chase Owens make their first defence of the IWGP Tag team Championships at Dominion when they face Great-O-Khan and Jeff Cobb. O-Khan and Cobb lost the tag titles in a Dontaku three way bout, not being involved in the decision as a Rocket Launcher Elbow Drop saw Hirooki Goto pinned. The former champions were quick to assert their right to a rematch, but have been frustrated at every turn since; in Washington DC, Owens would have his feet on the ropes to pin O-Khan, while the BOSJ finals in the Nippon Budokan saw United Empire cruising to victory in a six man preview until Ace Austin joined BULLET CLUB and turned the tide. Now a direct tag team battle will settle the score June 12. 6th Match- AEW Interim Championship Eliminator- Hirooki Goto vs Hiroshi Tanahashi quote:This Wednesday on AEW Dynamite, Hiroshi Tanahashi answered a challenge from AEW World Champion CM Punk for Forbidden Door in the United Center in Chicago on June 26. On Friday June 3, Punk announced that he was injured and would be requiring surgery. As a result, he will not be competing at Forbidden Door, but will not vacate the AEW World Championship. Instead, an Interim AEW World Champion will be crowned at Forbidden Door in an NJPW vs AEW singles match. 7th Match: KOPW 2022: Shingo Takagi vs Taichi quote:The KOPW 2022 trophy will be on the line between Shingo Takagi and Taichi. After Taichi won the KOPW 2022 trophy at hyper Battle in Ryogoku, he called out Shingo Takagi to challenge him for his freshly won title. As both vowed that they would ‘wear out’ the other, the result was a 30 count fall match during Golden Fight Series that saw Shingo Takagi win a thrilling war 30-29. 8th Match: NEVER Openweight Championship: Tama Tonga vs Karl Anderson quote:After a COVID positive saw him removed from the Nippon Budokan BOSJ final, Karl Anderson is cleared for his scheduled NEVER Openweight Championship match with Tama Tonga. After Tonga defeated EVIL to lift his first singles championship in NJPW at Dontaku, Anderson and partner Doc Gallows made their shocking return to Japanese rings, Anderson laying out Tama with a Gunstun onto the NEVER Openweight Championship. 9th Match- IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship: SANADA vs Will Ospreay quote:The IWGP United States Heavyweight Championship has been embroiled in a thick layer of controversy from the start of the year. Hiroshi Tanahashi would defeat KENTA to win the title on night two of Wrestle Kingdom in a streetfight brutal enough to put KENTA on the injured list for the last five months, before losing the belt on his first defence to SANADA. Main event: IWGP World Heavyweight Championship: Kazuchika Okada vs Jay White quote:The main event of the evening will see Kazuchika Okada seek his fifth defence of the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship against Switchblade Jay White. White made his return to Japanese competition on May 1 at Dontaku, laying out Okada with a Bladerunner and making it clear that he had been away from the world title scene long enough. fez_machine fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Jun 11, 2022 |

If this isn't enough wrestling for you all today, there's also an All Japan show starting in about 15 minutes with Minoru Suzuki in the main event which should be very fun. Also guests from Big Japan and GLEAT because wrestling needs more crossovers
