03:21Here comes the challenger

03:24Representing D-Courage, Dragon Dyer

03:27Dragon Dyer

03:36This is a rematch of the Open the Brave Gate Championship

03:41A rematch from this event two years ago

03:46Challenger D-Courage

03:4925 years old from Nagano Prefecture

03:52The Infinite Karat Diamond, Dragon Dyer

03:57Now the champion, the 51st Open the Brave Gate champion, this will be his 8th defense

04:22since winning the title back on December 5th of last year.

04:33He also got a new ring, entrance gown, look at that, Houston glasses and the shiny white

04:41championship belt, Open the Brave Gate, this will be his what, 6th defense, 8th defense.

04:48You were number 6.

04:49Yeah, I'm still living in the past, the 8th defense.

04:54Living in a world where that match hasn't happened yet, right?

05:01Yeah.

05:04Kyo was actually the one that laid this challenge out, he's the champion, he's made his way

05:15all the way up to 3rd place on the all-time defense list, but felt that Daiya was getting

05:20too much of the attention.

05:31He knows that Daiya has the ability, he knows he has the popularity.

05:38He personally feels that with him as champion, the Brave Gate championship is on the cusp

05:49of a new golden age.

05:53If he were to complete defense number 8, he would be within spitting distance of the defense

05:59record for this championship, that would be 11 defenses by Pac.

06:04And Kyo is looking to break that record.

06:06From 2010 into 2011, a lot of people consider that from 2010 to 2013, we had 3 Brave Gate

06:16champions.

06:17Pac was champion for a year, then it was Ricochet, then it was Dragon Kid.

06:31By putting his name up on the list, by passing those names, 2nd place would be 9 from Dragon

06:39Kid.

06:40And by putting his name on that list, he can restore the Brave Gate to what it was at those

06:50times.

06:51When these two competed for the Brave Gate at this event 2 years ago, it was match 3.

06:56In between two get-everybody-on-the-card tag matches.

07:01But today, it is above the Triangle Gate championship match.

07:07That is a sign of how important this championship has become with Kyo as champion and really

07:18with Daiya as challenger.

07:21The belt has a white strap, the champion is encouraged to dye the championship whatever

07:27color it is.

07:30Whatever color you see fit.

07:34The version of Kyo that won the championship here 2 years ago, Kyo looks back on that now

07:45and hates who he was.

07:47He was on the pre-show match last year, in what he considers to be the worst day of his

07:54life.

07:55He was in the pre-show, he had to watch his good friend, Luis Mate.

08:05We're going to start at 100 and we're going to stay here.

08:08Look at the speed, the head scissors, spin around, spin around.

08:15This has been the common theme, there have been quite a few skirmishes between these

08:20two since this match was made.

08:26That's been the story.

08:27They've traded some pinfalls against each other, the results have been almost split.

08:31But the key point is with each progressive encounter, there's been counters upon counters

08:38for everything.

08:40So really, the end stage of this match may come down to whoever has been able to come

08:47up with something new in secret that their opponent hasn't seen yet.

08:50And Dragon Daya, look at that, he's going to fly!

08:53Daya lands on his feet, and Kyo's going to fly!

08:58The key point, the turning point in Kyo's life.

09:07His grandmother used to say, you know, you will never be able to love and give love until

09:10you love yourself.

09:13And it wasn't until he broke away from Zebrats that he finally started to love himself, love

09:23his friends, love the unit that he was in, be able to accept the love of the fans.

09:30And it's turned him, you know, we used to call him, you know, the great brain.

09:36He was the brain trust of R.E.D. and then of Zebrats, but now not just mind, body, soul,

09:45and heart.

09:46He says this is the best version of himself.

09:48And love conquers all, and it will conquer Daya's ability and popularity in this championship

09:55match.

09:56And Daya rolls away to the outside, tripping the leg, oh!

10:01I have seen that, Hugh has seen that, and a DDT to the leg!

10:07Take the legs away, if Daya can't stand, he can't fight, if Daya can't fly, that takes

10:11away a considerable chunk of his offense.

10:20Hugh is having a title match right now, and his teammate Diamante and Jackie is having

10:25the twin gate match right after this.

10:28Hugh is on his own.

10:30Daya has Yuki Yoshioka, Yoshioka said he would be at ringside.

10:35Yoshioka is here today, definitely.

10:37Yoshioka was still recovering from his detached retina surgery, he had been planning on returning

10:45to action here, but you see him at ringside with the glasses on.

10:50Tanaka is here at ringside, Kiku is here at ringside, Daya now trying to fly, oh, oh, oh!

11:00Is he okay?

11:01The knee.

11:02Is he okay?

11:03It looks like he tweaked something.

11:05Wow, I mean that's, the leg that got DDT'd.

11:08I don't think he tweaked it as much as he just aggravated it.

11:12Just to finish the thought on Yoshioka, I was, you know, he's fine.

11:18You know, he's going to be able to return to the ring, but the doctor told him that

11:21it would be better for him to wait.

11:23That it's still kind of at the point where if he exerts too much, that it could undo

11:30what the surgery did.

11:31I was talking to him up at the merch stand earlier, and he was like, he still can't lift

11:35heavy weights, because you know, sometimes you're in the gym, and you...

11:39You lift heavy weights, you shout.

11:41You lift heavy, and you tighten your face, and your face turns red, and your burst of

11:45blood vessel.

11:46If he did that, it would be very bad.

11:50Trapping the two legs.

11:53Turn around.

11:54Kyo, 26 years old, from Toyohashi, debuted August 14, 2016, so he is coming up on his

12:018th anniversary very soon.

12:03Dragon Dai, 26 years old, from Nagano, he debuted in November 2018.

12:10Dai has held this championship once before, that was in 2022.

12:15Like we mentioned before, he was defeated by Kyo here at this defense, or here at this

12:20event.

12:21As the end of his first reign, he feels this is the most important match of his career.

12:28He considers himself to be the leading man of the Open the Brave Gate division.

12:35He's the protege of Dragon Kid, and much like Dragon Kid was the leading man of the Brave

12:41Gate division for so many years.

12:45But it's not just because he is Dragon Kid's successor.

12:50It's because he said, I'm not going anywhere.

12:54He has watched quite a few other wrestlers, both young and old, who were self-proclaimed

13:02centerpieces of the Brave Gate division, that are no longer with us here in Dragon

13:08Gate.

13:09But Dai is still going to be here.

13:11He will be the one that carries the legacy into our next 25 years.

13:20Still able to get in the head scissors.

13:22A lot of pain, but gets the head scissor out of the corner.

13:26Ooh.

13:27619.

13:28Going to follow up.

13:29Acai Moonsault.

13:32Landed on his feet, but that might have been the worst thing for him.

13:36Yeah.

13:45Landed right on top.

13:46You saw just Dai wasted no time in between the 619 into the Acai Moonsault.

13:52Didn't give Hyo any time to recover.

13:58Or get out of the way.

14:06Might have hurt Hyo's arm.

14:10These two have been, we have portrait signings.

14:15Now this time Dai twists his way in.

14:20We have the portrait signings here at shows and also on the web shop.

14:25We have popularity rankings on social media.

14:28And these two are typically number one and number two.

14:34Hyo is going to try and come up Dai.

14:37Going to go up with him.

14:44Sting of the top rope.

14:45Vampire scissors.

14:48Brings him down, but Hyo fights through Dai.

14:51Fights through Dai.

14:56Dai flipped out of it.

14:57Comes off, spikes him DDT.

14:59Hyo lands on his feet.

15:04There's that twisting side slam.

15:14Hyo had to exert a lot of force to get out of that.

15:16And also maybe delayed reaction on that DDT now.

15:22Both men are down after a series of moves.

15:32Hyo had put away Dai with that move in Osaka.

15:38Either Osaka or Kyoto.

15:43If he had been able to follow up that may have been the end of the match.

15:47Now both of them give it their same time.

15:49Dai is still alive.

15:51Time for chops.

15:53No, for the forearm.

15:54Boom.

16:01Let's see who got a better forearm.

16:03Hyo and Dragon Dai.

16:05Oh, the leg.

16:07Just kick the leg.

16:08That's quite a smart appeal.

16:09Kick his leg out from under his leg.

16:12Dai.

16:13Ooh.

16:14Coming back in.

16:15Springboard's back in with the cutter.

16:21Run up.

16:22Boom.

16:23Zero kick.

16:32Not enough to put Dai away.

16:42Said that a few times now though.

16:44Sometimes it's not just one move.

16:45It's an accumulation of a few.

16:50Hold on.

16:51Going for the Arfa Dai.

16:52Tried to fight.

16:53Tried to get him with a Bible.

16:58Dai.

16:59To the top.

17:00DD.

17:01DD.

17:02DD.

17:03No.

17:07Ooh.

17:09And it's a chop shooter.

17:11Turns him over.

17:12SP shooter.

17:15Wow.

17:19Can't stand back up yet.

17:25That's all right.

17:26Doing the sit down.

17:27Now he got it.

17:28Now he's got it.

17:29Yeah.

17:30Had to reposition to get in there,

17:31but anybody who grew up watching rock matches

17:36knows that's not the easiest hold to put on.

17:38Yeah.

17:39Worked very hard.

17:45Dragon Dai.

17:46Catch the rope.

17:48On the knee side.

17:49And uh-oh.

17:51Wait long.

17:52This is a move he puts you away with.

17:54Sun's out.

17:55Gun's out.

17:56Ooh.

17:57Boom.

17:58Oh, Daiya.

17:59Rolled him up.

18:00Daiya.

18:01Ooh.

18:03Yo.

18:04Easily clears the kick out, though.

18:07Whoa.

18:08Ooh.

18:10Now the stunner.

18:11Samson.

18:12Driver.

18:13To the behind.

18:15Daiya used the momentum to turn it back over.

18:18We're at the 10 minute mark.

18:20Gonna roll through again.

18:23One more time.

18:25Now a double stomp.

18:27Pounces with the double stomp.

18:33I've ate that for a few times.

18:35That double stomp feels like it's gonna break my ribs.

18:41The ribs.

18:42Yo, not the biggest opponent, but the amount of force

18:45he can generate on the sentons and those double stomps

18:50is not to be underestimated.

18:53Now on the second rope.

18:54What's he thinking?

18:55Just a little bit far away.

18:57Lock the target.

18:58Make the line.

18:59Catch the man.

19:00Hunting.

19:01Ooh.

19:02And a cutter from the second rope.

19:05And it's in.

19:06I think it was the arrogant cover.

19:10No weight on the shoulders.

19:12Let Daiya get up.

19:17You need to do it fast.

19:20Holding on.

19:22This is.

19:23Holding the arm.

19:24Wrist clutch backdrop.

19:26That's what.

19:27During his first reign as Brave Gate champion.

19:29That was one of his kill shots.

19:32Not able to lock it in though.

19:33Daiya.

19:34Jumping high kick.

19:39Oh, that's it.

19:41It's locked in.

19:42Yo.

19:43Still kicks out.

19:44Still kicks out.

19:45Dragging that.

19:46Kicks out a cutter from the corner.

19:48Kicks out backdrop.

19:49Maybe starting to wonder what else.

19:51What's he gonna do?

19:52Oh, no way.

19:54Daiya getting up fast.

19:56The leg still pain, but it's okay.

19:59It's time for the DD, DD, DD, TT.

20:03It's time to perch on the middle rope.

20:06Dragging Daiya.

20:07DD.

20:08Hold on.

20:09Boom.

20:10Oh, look at that.

20:11The neck.

20:12That wasn't a headscan.

20:13You gotta come.

20:14You gotta come.

20:15You gotta come.

20:16You gotta come.

20:17You gotta come.

20:18You gotta come.

20:19You gotta come.

20:20You gotta come.

20:21You gotta come.

20:22You're gonna come. You're gonna hop.

20:24Ah! No!

20:26Half a Samson driver!

20:31Rolls through. Reptilian!

20:33Run up!

20:34Spikes in!

20:36New champion!

20:41Just like that!

20:45Wow!

20:46That's so quick that I...

20:52I said at the start that it was gonna take...

20:55Maybe the...

20:56Maybe they're gonna need to come...

20:59Come up with something new to win.

21:01But it was exactly the opposite.

21:02You know, Daiya has had the double cork, the DD-DDT.

21:06A lot of different moves...

21:08Since losing his mask, but it was the one...

21:11The first move that...

21:12On his come up, the Reptilian Rana.

21:16He actually kicks out, but that's already count on the three.

21:21It's like 3.1, he kicks it out.

21:23Bringing back the move that brought him to the dance, the Reptilian Rana.

21:27It brings him his second Open the Brave Gate Championship.

21:43In almost nine month reign, seven defenses...

21:48By Hyo...

21:50Has come to an end, as Dragon Daiya has become the 52nd Open the Brave Gate Champion.

22:14Whether this is a golden age of the Brave Gate or not, I don't know.

22:18But we have definitely entered the diamond age.

22:25As Dragon Daiya once again...

22:36Adrenaline starting to wear off.

22:38Yeah, Yoshioka is there, you gotta...

22:41You have a week off to...

22:43You know, recover from your knee pain.

22:48Dragon Daiya...

22:50New champion, Dragon Daiya.

22:52Hyo was saying he's trying to break the record, but Dragon Daiya proved that...

22:57He's better today.

22:59Better today, I mean...

23:01This is the second time these two have fought over the Brave Gate, and I'm...

23:04I can say with a lot of confidence that it's not the last time.

23:08Yeah.

23:11They're now one and one.

23:14Hyo beat him for the championship two years ago, Daiya...

23:18Is the better man today.

23:22His SAG partner, Yuki Yoshioka...
