01:00
it has been well over one month since the last time
01:11
we have seen great okan
01:13
in new japan pro wrestling action
01:16
and after a series of singles matches
01:20
that we saw chris over the course of g1 climax 35
01:23
the race to the finish line great okan did not come close enough
01:27
to be able to finish in a way that he would be proud of
01:30
but it comes off the back of the final night in ariake arena
01:34
tanahashi shoto umano and yui omora putting down united empire
01:38
that really has drawn the ire not only of great okan
01:42
but of the empire itself toward the ace
01:45
well great okan coming into that last night
01:47
you know i mean he evoked the last time they were there
01:51
in ariake arena and that was wrestling the great mutas last new japan match
01:56
and said well maybe just like that was a turning point
02:00
maybe it's a turning point for united empire
02:03
maybe new japan doesn't need a united empire anymore
02:06
and sort of sending those questions about the state of their unit
02:11
so i said great okan on a different track and said well if i need
02:17
to get back into the mainstream of things get back to the main floor
02:21
i have to take things back to the beginning and that means going after
02:24
hiroshi tanahashi
02:25
great okan
02:29
great okan
02:34
great okan
02:39
great okan and the vtuber
02:45
i know you watch your vtuber as well
02:47
do i yeah well subaru ozawa you know that's how he gets the the cow killer the
02:52
sheep killer rather big one
02:54
and so it's going to be great okan and uh was that a super
02:58
crew presenting pro wrestling
03:01
we need more vtubers in this business
03:04
that's what we could get vtuber versions of you and me
03:07
wow and we don't have to do anything
03:09
chris they're already trying to put us in the back and replace us i don't think that
03:13
i don't think we need to give them any more ideas
03:20
98 days and count it
03:29
and it'll go by in a flash won't it
03:33
we ought to take advantage in every single one of these moments
03:38
but tanahashi walking into his 28th match here in kobe
03:42
8 and 3 singles
03:44
and absolutely dominated this town
03:48
he went on a 14 year winning streak here in kobe
03:51
between 2004 and 2018
03:54
we'll see if we can get back on the horse here
03:57
this will be the last time for hiroshi tanahashi to wrestle in this beautiful city of kobe
04:03
this will be the last time for hiroshi tanahashi to wrestle in this beautiful city of kobe

tanahashi hiroshi
04:21
I think there's a lot that you can look at right now Chris
04:44
when it comes to Great Okan's placement
04:46
Dead center in the middle of the ring right now
04:49
A lot of people would take that step back
04:52
Give the ace of the universe just one more piece of a moment here in Kobe
04:57
World Memorial Hall Great Okan is not going to give that tonight
05:00
Well no I mean but that's always been Great Okan MO
05:03
I mean certainly that was Great Okan's stance when Kazuchika Okada left New Japan Pro Wrestling
05:08
It is the stance I think quite rightly so with Hiroshi Tanahashi
05:14
Magui Okan I think knows that Tanahashi on the one side physically perhaps that is most beatable
05:22
Well on the other side on a mental standpoint so hard to handle Tanahashi now
05:27
We're on that final stretch of the final road
05:30
You know Tanahashi knows in his mind he can't be losing going into his final match in the Tokyo
05:36
Well it wasn't recently back in Sapporo final road action against Master Watto in openweight competition
05:43
Hiroshi Tanahashi finding victory on that accord but
05:46
It is the third ever singles encounter here tonight between Tanahashi and Great Okan
05:49
Can you run down some of that history for us
05:52
Well when Great Okan first came back
05:55
Well first came into Japanese competition
05:58
Around the birth of the United Empire Hiroshi Tanahashi was one of Great Okan's first targets
06:04
They met at Wrestle Kingdom in 2021
06:08
Wrestle Kingdom 15
06:10
A lot of people thought well Great Okan's gonna
06:13
Steamroll Tanahashi beyond on the way to much greater things
06:17
But Tanahashi really showed up well not showed up Great Okan but
06:22
Force pressured Great Okan into an error and that was that
06:25
Great Okan wanted a rematch the very next month
06:28
In Osaka Joe Hall and Tanahashi got the dub again
06:31
Okay green break
06:32
Okay
06:32
That's how
06:34
Never openweight championship on the line back at Castle Attack
06:37
Well I mean I think as well what that what that did in many ways is
06:41
It sort of set a pace for Great Okan where we often talk about the stop and the start and the ups and the downs and the inconsistencies
06:49
The Great Okan has had to struggle with really over the course of his New Japan career
06:55
Tanahashi saying in the video package for this matchup on YouTube
07:01
Wait a second
07:02
Well Tanahashi in a bit of trouble here
07:04
Yeah Great Okan submission attempt in on that right knee of Hiroshi Tanahashi
07:08
Well we've been talking a lot about the knees of Tanahashi the hips of Tanahashi
07:12
The flexors do not think Great Okan is unaware of those pressure points
07:17
I think what we see so much and Zack Sabre Jr. talks about this as well
07:21
We see the diversity and the versatility of the Great Okan in terms of the different styles
07:25
They're able to wrestle the different environments they're able to wrestle in
07:29
You know all the things they did with the the KOPW last year
07:32
Wrestling Suzuki in a hardcore match you know
07:35
Doing all of those different the eating contests and all those different crazy things
07:39
And how good they are in those positions
07:42
But you know Tanahashi saying in that video package you have to be
07:46
It's easy to sort of get locked into that wheelhouse
07:51
Being the entertaining guy rather than the guy that wants to compete for the World Heavyweight Championship
07:57
Is a cover and a kick out at two for Great Okan
08:00
You know Tanahashi has been surrounded with people like that in Plumtie
08:04
If you really look at the safer things Ryu skates of Gucci could potentially be put into that category
08:09
Toru Yano could be put into that category especially
08:11
I mean Tanahashi has seen it has seen how it has affected careers
08:17
And let's not pretend that those two men that we just mentioned have not had
08:19
Flourishing careers in New Japan but there are heights and levels to this Chris
08:23
Right oftentimes you know some of the most long-lasting and and some of the most
08:28
You know perhaps influential when it comes to passing knowledge down to the younger generations
08:33
Later on in their careers but you know Great Okan I think Tanahashi still thinks
08:37
Great Okan could be an IWGP World Heavyweight Champion I have to agree with him
08:41
Yeah
08:43
There's Okan
08:44
Oh met back with some chops of his own by the ace of the universe
08:49
Tanahashi allowed to do those?
08:50
Yeah well I don't know we'll see it here
08:52
Forearm shot from the ace
08:55
Great Okan has never defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi in a singles match before
09:02
And Tanahashi looks to end his career with the exact same record
09:05
Extending it forward to 3-0 here tonight if Tanahashi's victorious
09:09
Go!
09:11
You remember at Tanahashi Jam in Nagoya there was that attendance tag match that had Yodosuji involved in that
09:17
Great Okan was there as well Great Okan didn't understand why he was part of that
09:21
Right
09:21
Oh crushing set on cover here for Tanahashi
09:27
And the barest of shoulders up for Great Okan there
09:29
I think in all of professional wrestling right now
09:33
If I was a wrestler the one move I would want to take the very least is that flipping senton from Tanahashi
09:37
We've been seeing a lot of sentons in New Japan recently
09:39
I know
09:41
Tanahashi Hartley Jackson
09:43
Yeah
09:45
Yeah I mean it's simple very very very painful
09:49
Well Tanahashi calling for something a little bit less simple but all the more painful
09:53
Off the ropes here
09:57
One of that sling blade Okan underneath it though
09:59
Boot caught there by Tanahashi
10:01
Dragon screw leg whip
10:03
Ala the ace
10:05
And Okan look at this
10:07
Whoa!Whipping the leg of his own
10:11
Tanahashi look for it
10:13
What's that twisted shout
10:15
And Okan though in trouble
10:17
In trouble
10:19
No that TTD avoided
10:21
Oh man
10:25
One sock in the face
10:27
Remember Walker where Great Okan was this time last year
10:29
He was in the main event
10:31
Challenging Tetsu United for the World Heavyweight Championship
10:33
This win over Tanahashi
10:35
Can propel them
10:37
Back into the main event mix
10:45
Hey Tanahashi!
10:47
Hey!
10:49
Hey!
10:50
Oh God!
10:54
Hey Okan!
10:56
Yes!
10:58
Tanahashi feeling the fire
11:00
Great Okan has to be feeling the pressure right now
11:02
Hey Okan!Okan!
11:04
Oh God!
11:06
I think that last one
11:08
That might have
11:10
Rocks Great Okan
11:12
Not able to really take a breath
11:14
We're seeing it here
11:16
Oh maybe Tanahashi is saying come on that's mental
11:18
Actually get motivated
11:20
Get into this match up here
11:22
It's matches like this that are going to prove
11:24
Whether or not you have the capability
11:26
To be a World Heavyweight Champion one day
11:28
Oh!
11:30
Oh!
11:32
Oh!
11:33
Tanah firing right back
11:34
Tanahashi!
11:36
Yes!
11:38
Tanahashi off the robes
11:40
Sling blade on Great Okan
11:42
Tanahashi scrambles on the cover for the win
11:46
Two only
11:48
Pop the shoulder up
11:50
Grab the bottom rope for safety
11:52
But there's no safety here
11:54
You're right in the flight zone
11:56
Maya moving fast up to that top rope
11:58
Tanahashi now from the top
12:00
Oh!
12:02
And a crash landing for Tanahashi
12:04
Great Okan might sacrifice their knees
12:06
Great Okan might sacrifice their knees
12:08
Great Okan going
12:10
With that high five floor
12:12
Damage might be done now
12:14
Yeah Great Okan
12:16
Oh no,look at this
12:17
Give him up,Give him up
12:18
Yeah
12:19
Great Okan avoided it
12:21
Okan off the rope
12:22
Hey!
12:23
Sling blade a la Okan
12:25
He's definitely not allowed to do that
