Yo, Ditch, what can you tell me about Hajime Ohara? I just saw him on SMASH wrestling and he really caught my eye. Seems pretty young but with a lot of potential. Thoughts/Opinions?

I just started watching the last HUSTLE show and the opener is Ohara & Super Crazy vs. Ultimo Dragon & KG and he did a kamehameha :ssj:

I've only seen SMASH 15 but I have a few others and plan to get more, but Ohara and Kushida stuck out. Ohara is Ultimo Dragon's protégé and rival and he looks like Jin Kazama from Tekken with Ron Perlman's face. I think he looks dark & cool :twisted:

Some information I never bothered to share because it hadn't been told to the public yet, Wrestling New Classic was suppose to start releasing DVDs very early next year.

I don't know what sped up the process between last month and this month but looks like the DVDs are done super early!

The first Wrestling New Classic DVD will be released at the end of November!

What's that, you're worried it will take forever to catch up? Well how about shoving four entire non-clipped shows onto the DVD!

In addition to that, you'll be getting a free photobook of Tajiri. Produced by Kana.

It's going to cost $80.00 without shipping :negative:

the reports since then say Mutoh is looking to buy AJPW stock back from the new owners Speed Partners who are apparently not eager about owning it anyway, and if not he will leave and probably be followed by a couple of others and may make his own promotion.

also Koba's hep c test came back negative. he said he had positive news to report when he announced it which is a good way to word it.

e: and enuhito just posted an article with Mutoh in the last 5 min, he's out http://blog.livedoor.jp/hbkidcool/archives/51905929.html

Colt Cabana on the card too, I doubt it will sell out that fast when it's still 4 months away, I don't think the card at the weekend with Liger sold out and I imagine UK audience is more familiar with Liger than they are with Tanahashi.

NOAH roster going to AJPW would make no sense since NOAH was conceived to escape AJPW, which was probably in better state in 2000 than it is now. Then again a handful of NOAH's top guys already went to AJPW with the BURNING invasion.

AJPW's new owner probably gives them financial backing they need but their roster is so thin, even before Mutoh and others left.

The next best thing, Shinsuke Nakamura is going to NOAH this month to tag with Marafuji against KENTA/Sugiura.

Tokyo Sports repored KENTA may appear in NJPW, rough translation by enuhito.

quote:

KENTA「外に出ないというスタンスだけど、別に外が嫌いなワケじゃない。ここで何かが生まれれば可能性はある。そこらへんは縁に任せます」
KENTA : I will not go outside to wrestle basically but I don't hate it. I will face Shinsuke Nakamura for tag team match in Marufuji's 15th anniversary show. If something happens in that match, I would go.

There was another interview with KENTA & Shibata in a magazine where he expressed that he wants to go to WWE, but he has no english, and I'm sure nobody wants that.

I could see KENTA & Shibata as a unit or even rivals in NJPW, they are good friends. Shibata was there in the ring when KENTA won the GHC title, they were at the WWE events in Ryogoku together this summer, and Shibata has adopted the Go 2 Sleep for the G1 Climax this month.

I have that set on disc and it rules, my favourite match so far on it is Sabu vs. Jerry Lynn. Sabu does a dive to the outside while Lynn is on a table and they both fall off it, Sabu powerbombs Lynn onto the table and nothing happens, post-match Sabu moonsaults onto the table and fucks himself up on it and I think maybe one of the legs breaks.

Ibushi gets a bloody mouth at some point in the match. I rewatched it and found Okada's dropkick caused it, you don't see it at first then Okada puts him in Red Ink and a trickle of blood drips down his neck while in the submission hold, that's some poetic shite m8.

What's a good year for NOAH and Hustle?

HUSTLE probably peaked in 2005, their shows were always hit and miss though.

HUSTLEMANIA 2005 was probably the peak for spectacle, and any match with the FMW guys (Masato Tanaka, Tetsuo Kuroda & Kintaro Kanemura) ended up being fun to watch.
