01:17during people oh wow how does that work out you got Taguchi you got Ishimori yo and now ah you're right

01:27well speaking of local boys well there is only one way Chris Charlton and it is the jetway indeed

01:34jetway that's like the jet stream

01:36local talent out of Kyushu pro wrestling we are here on the island of Kyushu here in Fukuoka japan

01:47Kyushu pro one of the largest independents that you're going to find in this region

01:51of the country representing here jetway and it's not going to end here as it comes to Kyushu pro

02:00how did you much get off

02:04you got a chance to watch jetway this time last year on the kickoff very very impressive athlete

02:13you know Sasaki has been around the business for a long time walker 23 years

02:19in the game you wouldn't think it's look at him

02:23and there you get a good shot of your japanese broadcast team and we'll see a shot of your english

02:27broadcast team later on in the evening hopefully as we get into

02:31kickoff tag team action you talk about hitamaru sasaki 23 year veteran approaching year 24.

02:38it's going to be coming up next week actually for hitamaru sasaki so a lot of landmark events

02:43happening for Kyushu pro in the area coming up in the next week and you can see how hard they go

02:47in Kyushu pro by taking a look at jetway there absolutely battle hard and bandaged up but

02:53wanting to go hard in this one as he does every single night hitamaru sasaki representing you can

02:59see in his armband there the youth style camp transition from the world of mixed martial arts

03:06into professional wrestling and uh fought with rings as well as pride bushido back in the day

03:15talking a little bit earlier on in the evening a little bit of a judo background for

03:19itamaru sasaki in the world of martial arts where you skate to gucci well very different style of

03:25martial art if you will that he's taken to in pro wrestling great great amateur as well

03:30yeah i mean certainly he's a very accomplished grappler but also accomplished in other areas

03:37there's one thing where you skate to gucci is going to have to grapple with and that is his first

03:41best in the super junior in a few years now missed out on last year's tournament action due to

03:45get this a bicycle accident if you remember correctly it's worth to avoid a stray dog

03:54he came off his bike there in comes jetway now the story of this one walker this time last year

04:00jetway and marishima on opposite ends of this kickoff tag and it was team marishima that got the

04:07win marishima along with togi makabe right so here marishima wants to be the one that gets the result

04:14in this kickoff tag and jetway wants to get revenge for last year's kickoff tag

04:19caught a lot of jetway action in my career over in taiwan with puzzle for wrestling in the puzzle dojo

04:25jetway a native of taiwan here in japan has a little bit of a difficult time assimilating to

04:32the country of japan but has been making great strides in kyushu pro as of reason yeah he's been in kyushu

04:36for a few years now at this point his second home down here in kyushu and so you're seeing the

04:45wonderful alliances for me not just of united japan pro wrestling which has allowed kyushu pro to come

04:53in here and uh chikazen ryoto part of the uh the united japan pro wrestling board we'll see you to

05:00chikazen later on um but also the asian pacific federation

05:07our partner promotions across the continent right

05:13jetway gonna find the suplex here on a young lion katsu marishima find the cover here and it's only two

05:18two it's not just kyushu pro representing an inter-promotional action here tonight as hitamaru

05:25sasaki is going to look for the tag and achieve it in that corner stardom showcase coming up on the

05:30main card chris charlton six woman tag action fukuoka triple crazy takes on neo genesis and yuna

05:38look forward into that one and i think as we talk about turbulent times here in new japan pro wrestling i

05:43think that goes all the same perhaps doubly so in the world of stardom i guess we'll get into it

05:49for jetway isolating that from left leg of marashima and that's going to be hitamaru sasaki

06:00as he snapmare take down forces sasaki and very quickly you're going to see some expert strikes here

06:06that marashima is going to have to attempt to level up against

06:14leveling up and showing his power as of late voice

06:17just like oh my god there you go that's the mma experience of sasaki

06:27don't let that three and seven record fool you for hitamaru sasaki in the world of mixed martial arts

06:32an incredible athlete that we have standing in the ring right now and a big test for a young lion like

06:37marashima yeah and very very versatile as well of course his pro wrestling experience not just in

06:44kyushu pro ddt as well glate i love calling a little bit of glate action walk up oh it's great

06:51super smashing blade a little bit of a face wash

06:59and sasaki off the ropes and otani-esque with that face wash chris shout outs to shinjiro otani we wish

07:08him well we hope his road to recovery continues

07:16ryusuke saguchi missed out oh no oh well this is not the place marashima especially wants to be

07:26oh

07:33well and this is i think that's that's a boat boot across all four cheeks walker oh no

07:41well watched a little bit more of the face there

07:44than sasaki might have imagined here we go

07:47five minutes past five minutes five minutes five minutes five minutes five minutes five minutes

07:50eatamaru

07:58yeah that was stiff here on the cover again

08:01that's a taste out of marashima's mouth no i think there is that lesson for someone that's

08:08a veteran of the game like sasaki is walkabout hasn't been

08:12competing on the the national stage quite as often you know i mean it's a chance a match like this to

08:19show he don't look down on me don't look past me just because i'm a local independent favorite

08:27and kyushu pro man i mean they are red hot in the fukoka area you know i mean we're going to be sold out

08:34here tonight in the fukoka international center they damn near did the same this time last year big big

08:38events coming from that promotion it's great to see the independent scene flourishing

08:44oh and speaking of the flourish oh marashima hits it flush on itamaru sasaki

08:53even further than a pounce here sasaki is going to need that tag in the blue corner finds it in the

08:58red no tag for sasaki and it's not going to matter

09:01the trigger

09:19and here is the cover off the five b's and it is only two for ryusuke taguchi a lot for sasaki to need to

09:26prove here tonight making a new japan pro wrestling debut mind you after what a 24 year year career

09:33oh certainly someone with his oh i was going to say he wouldn't want to tap out to an ankle hold on

09:41so it's a good she tried to pick the ankle again on the roll through could not do so

10:05oh and right off the dome there from sasaki to taguchi

10:13jettwaite calling sasaki in he's feeling like he's got a shot those heavily taped up ribs though and

10:21jettwaite certainly hurting the man from taiwan and jettwaite

10:28oh nice beheading with that lariat you're gonna see a lot of stiffness one way or another rigid as

10:39can be is the taiwanese native very comfortable on the top rope oh is jetway beautiful drop kick and he

10:46got it and the cover full press and broken up by young lion mirashima

11:03this is exactly what mirashima wanted to test the metal to test the moxie of this young lion

11:08and you're gonna have it done for you with sasaki at the press here comes the avalanche could it be got it

11:19oh mirashima directing traffic here chris and it's all on taguchi all alone

11:25it could be a big big opportunity for jetway

11:28jetway ascending to the top wants to put it to bed

11:40oh my god ankle lock locked in for ryusuke taguchi jetway has nowhere to go

11:47except to the bottom ropes and he's gonna have to make it sooner rather than later

11:51he does he does he does indeed very very impressive but pulled right back there

11:58the jetway already banged up clearly and that's gonna be it

12:12oh meanwhile on the outside here it's about it sasaki and mirashima are trading hold

12:18back and forth oh brother they both have each other by the ankle here on the outside

12:34it lies sasaki say when new japan pro wrestling big shot young lion is nothing on my experience

12:40maybe i might be making an appeal to the matchmakers down in kyushu pro might be making a little trip south

12:50of the country

12:54and having a shot at hitler sasaki at some date in the future

12:58might have to stay tuned to those backstage comments

13:00oh great effort by jetway but sasaki really impressed me here today
