00:28AND YES WE'LL REFERENCE THAT ALL THROUGHOUT THIS MATCHUP AND YES WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT HEADING INTO TOMORROW IN NIGATA IT'S EL DESPERADO AND A NEW FOUND PARTNER A LONG STANDING RELATIONSHIP FROM THE MEXICAN INDEPENDENT SCENE COMES THE WAY OF MISHONOKU PRO ZONE KUKA
00:58AND A NEW DESPERADO
01:12WELCOME TO THE HOUSE OF TORCHER
01:15AND A LONG STANDING ENOUGH
01:41Well, according to Dick Togo and Yoshinobu Katamaru,
02:01The Purge Knight is not just on November 19th in Cork and Hall.
02:06Live on NJPW World Pay-Per-View.
02:09Video on demand with English coverage.
02:12That's a pay-per-view event produced by EVIL and House of Torture completely.
02:16But The Purge Knight might come a little earlier, November 2nd, the Super Junior Tag League Finals.
02:22The Super Junior Tag League Finals.
02:26The Spoiler, Dick Togo!
02:30And there you get a good shot of your Japanese broadcast booth.
02:51The lovely Arua Murata and Milano Collection AT.
02:55And somewhere in the back of the stage, you'll find me here tonight.
02:58El Desperado, Kukai, and Masa Toriyasada taking on Yoshinobu Katamaru, Dick Togo, and Yujiro Takahashi.
03:05The plans of a early Purge Knight of Torture coming November 2nd.
03:10Good Lord, how unholy that could be on Tanahashi's final homecoming event coming up in Gifu on that evening.
03:17Also to take place, not just Tanahashi versus Tsuji for the Global Heavyweight Championship,
03:22not just Takeshita versus Goto for the World Heavyweight Championship.
03:26It will be the final of Super Junior Tag League 2025.
03:29The goal is very simple for House of Torture, both on Block A and Block B's side of the equation.
03:35Katamaru and Togo want to face off against Doki and Sho in an all-House of Torture final.
03:42One that could even decide the Junior Tag Team Champions.
03:45Well, we talk about Sho being the lackey of Doki as things have been recently.
03:50Dick Togo and Katamaru, who knows what side of the coin that they would fall on there as well.
03:55But, well, I don't think it really much matters as long as Championship gold and trophies
03:59belong directly to the house.
04:03Meanwhile, the two teams that will be facing off coming up tomorrow in Niigata.
04:09It is Kukai and Desperado, two points on the board against Dick Togo and Yoshinobu Katamaru.
04:15The team of Whiskey Dick, Katamaru and Togo.
04:17It is going to be a need-to-win situation coming up for Dick Togo and Yoshinobu Katamaru.
04:34The Whiskey Dick tandem need to walk away with a victory tomorrow over Desperado and Kukai.
04:40And that is something that has been proven possible all the way back on the first night of this series.
04:45It was former Super Junior Tag League winners in their own right last year.
04:49Kosei, Fujina, and Robbie Eagles dropping Desperado and Kukai in forking the hall on an incredible main event.
04:56And meanwhile, Desperado wants to find that four-point mark that each one sweep boys currently find themselves on.
05:03Victory over Tiger Mask and Dragon Gate's own Yamato.
05:09Just yesterday in court, can haul as well.
05:11Puts Desperado and Kukai on two points.
05:14And certainly puts Tiger Mask and Yamato in a bad position.
05:17We'll talk about that later on in the evening as well.
05:20As a boot from Utre and a basement dropkick from Katamaru.
05:24And this is going to be the subject of tomorrow's conversation more than any other.
05:28Tag made to Dick Togo, but Yoshinobu Katamaru is going to stay on our minds.
05:32Just as well as he stays in the ring right now.
05:35It has a separation.
05:38That's a wishbone I would not want to be on the other side of.
05:42And what are we seeing here?
05:43Togo and Katamaru going to work.
05:46Two veterans of the junior tag team wrestling scene.
05:50Desperado knows that better than anyone when it comes to Yoshinobu Katamaru.
05:54The only Super Junior Tag League that these two have won in New Japan Pro Wrestling.
05:58Coming alongside one another back in the days of Suzuki.
06:02It is Desperado who credits Katamaru for teaching him so much whenever he made his return here to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
06:10Found himself in involvement in junior tag team competition.
06:16And it was ironically Desperado who pushed for Doki to align himself with Katamaru in some form or fashion.
06:23And now that Katamaru connection has led to Desperado no longer holding junior heavyweight gold in the singles division.
06:29The tag team division dominated by Doki and Sho as well.
06:33House of Torture painting a disgusting picture of black all over the junior heavyweight division in New Japan.
06:40Meanwhile, bad knees galore for New Japan Pro Wrestling tonight.
06:48And we're talking about it with Yujiro Takahashi.
06:51That is a continuing plague.
06:52But El Desperado that left knee in a little bit of trouble.
06:55Yujiro going to try and take advantage of said position.
06:58As it is.
07:02Kukai, his first ever Super Junior Tag League tournament.
07:06El Desperado enters his seventh Super Junior tournament.
07:10Both tag league and tag tournament combination.
07:13Knockout and round robin.
07:14There is a distinction to be made there.
07:15And again, that left knee of El Desperado.
07:22A knee that was plaguing him heading into that singles matchup with Doki.
07:26A knee that was plaguing him heading into the junior tag team challenge that happened just afterward.
07:31And now certainly going to be doing so throughout the rest of this tournament.
07:38There's a falling headbutt from Yujiro Takahashi.
07:41He finds the mark.
07:43And again, yeah, that one a little bit more pointed.
07:45Right to that knee one more time.
07:49Yujiro no longer a junior heavyweight.
07:52That's for certain.
07:54And tag going to be coming out.
07:55Here comes Yoshinobu Katamaru entering his eighth ever Super Junior Tag Tournament here in New Japan.
08:022021 winner.
08:04Competed alongside Sho in last year's tournament in a failing effort.
08:09And look at this.
08:10I mean, talk about student and master.
08:12And how often recently we talked about Desperado seeming the master more so than anyone else.
08:18But Katamaru, no one is going to out heel to heel master.
08:21That is what Katamaru has been saying for quite some time.
08:24And well, doesn't even have to say it vocally.
08:26It's all about what's done inside the ring.
08:28And Desperado, I mean, this is a bad, bad way to have yourself here.
08:31And that is exactly where Desperado finds himself indeed.
08:36Figure four leg lock locked in against an incredible limb targeting athlete in Yoshinobu Katamaru.
08:42Desperado has got to find his way to the bottom rope if he has any chance of saving not only in this match tonight,
08:47but his entire tag team tournament endeavor.
08:50And Togo still putting the boots in on Katamaru.
08:58Or rather on Desperado.
09:00Katamaru continuing the assault here.
09:02And you can see desperation has hit the mark.
09:07This is a long, long time to be in this hold, folks.
09:11I mean, we have no way of understanding here on the broadcast.
09:13Togo again with the interception.
09:17And Yasuda trying to force the break, doing so here tonight.
09:24Good Lord, that left knee.
09:28There could be a lot of cartilage damage in that knee.
09:33You have no idea the pressure that Desperado is under right now.
09:37Had the junior heavyweight division in his hands entirely.
09:40And it all slipped through the cracks.
09:41Thanks to the House of Torture.
09:44And a spine buster from El Desperado.
09:48Right on the money.
09:49And Kukai, look at this.
10:11Evolution on the Mexican independent scene has done this man quite well.
10:15Well, let's see if Kukai could evolve even further back in the homelay in Japan.
10:20Watch it.
10:21Tobe Suicida wipes out the Dick part of Whiskey Dick.
10:27Yeah, certainly the head of Whiskey Dick, if you know what I'm saying.
10:35Dick Togo certainly.
10:37Yeah, gotta find his way back into this one.
10:39Zero points on the board.
10:42Doesn't matter the language you say it in.
10:43The facts remain the facts.
10:45Kukai from the heavens.
10:46Here we go.
10:47Cross body.
10:48Wipes down Dick Togo.
10:51It's the match that's set to come tomorrow.
10:53In the gata inverted sling blade, courtesy of Kukai.
10:59Kukai, meanwhile, would love to pick up a victory here tonight just as well as he and Desperado did over Tiger Mask and Yamato.
11:18But now it is not just straight league match after league match after league match.
11:23You get a slight opportunity to scout your opponent, to catch your breath.
11:27And man, oh my, Kukai is going to need to do a lot more scouting than that.
11:31Heavyweight power out of the junior in Togo.
11:34And here comes Yu-Dra.
11:43Wow, and a big, big chop to the chest.
11:48Yu-Dra Takahashi, a former IWGP junior tag team champion, competed in a few best in the Super Junior tournaments.
11:55Never before, though, in a junior tag league or tag tournament alike.
12:01And certainly Kukai.
12:04Looking to tag out in the red corner to a man.
12:07Certainly trending heavyweight.
12:10Masa Toriyazade hits the ring.
12:11You have to wonder if there's a little bit of kingship out of Masa Toriyazade and Desperado Kukai, respectively.
12:25Born in Mexico City, Mexico.
12:27Raised in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
12:30There is a Lucha Libre tie that is certainly in the blood of Masa Toriyazade.
12:35And let's see what Yasada can do alongside one of the top luchadors in Japanese wrestling today.
12:41Desperado out of the corner.
12:43Lariat out and in.
12:45Find Yu-Dra.
12:46Drop kick.
12:47Center of the ring.
12:49And Yasada wants to get something big.
12:52It'll be the biggest win of his young career.
12:54If he can tap out Yu-Dra Takahashi.
12:56Here tonight in Kumagaya City.
12:58And here comes Dick Togo to ruin the fun.
13:04Kukai, meanwhile, back into the fray here.
13:07Going to take Togo to the outside.
13:08And it's all Yasada and Yu-Dra inside the ring.
13:15I have no idea.
13:17Ah, well, well, whatever Yasada was looking for is now shoved right in the mouth of Yu-Dra Takahashi.
13:23And that big boot from Yu-Dra going to land right on the mark here.
13:33Watch now.
13:34Watch now.
13:34Yasada.
13:35Yasada wants to turn it around.
13:36Cover.
13:37Just two.
13:40Yasada again.
13:41School boy for the cover.
13:43The win.
13:43Two only.
13:46Yu-Dra's got to do something.
13:48It's got to be something big.
13:49Something soon.
13:50Whatever it's going to take for the Tokyo Pip to walk away victorious.
13:55And it's going to come here.
13:57Cover in on Yu-Dra.
14:01And Yasada out at two.
14:13And Yu-Dra Takahashi.
14:16Three count victory here tonight.
14:19That's all she wrote.
14:2010分 46秒.
14:23Takahashi Yujiro選手の勝利です.
14:25That's amazing.
14:35Well, I can't tell you the last time I've heard Yujiro Takahashi's entrance team.
14:39I can certainly tell you that it might be House of Tortures music that's playing all throughout Ni-Gada.
14:45Come tomorrow, 24 hours from now.
14:48Less than Desperado.
14:50Oh, this is a damn shame.
14:52This is a crying damn shame.
14:54If I've ever called it.
14:57The match we're set to see tomorrow.
14:58Two points on the line.
14:59Togo, Katamaru, Whiskey Dick vs. El Desperado and Kukai.
15:05There is no doubt Desperado was not going to be walking in tomorrow 100%.
15:18He is certainly not going to be now.
15:21And when Desperation strikes, you know Dick Togo and Yoshinobu Katamaru are going to be the face of it.
15:30Wrestling fans, that's what's coming up tomorrow, October 26th, night 4 for Block B and Super Junior Tag League.
15:42We're going to move right on to your next match in the evening.
15:45An 8-man tag turned to a 6-man.
15:47How does that change the complexion?
15:49Tiger Mask, Yamato and Shomakato take on the Bullet Club War Dogs.
15:54Robby X, Oscar and Yuto Ice.
15:58And it's coming up right here live on NJPW World.
16:00We thank you for sticking with us.
16:02Hashtag NJSJTL.
