00:30I'll be quite honest with you, I don't believe that Ghetto was too thrilled at the idea of teaming with Haromo when these match cards were first announced.
00:52Yeah, it does look too, I think.
00:53But Ghetto and Haromo seem to have been getting on better than anyone could have expected heading into this tournament.
01:008.2, Ballet Club Uo-Docs, Braddy Hans, GEDO!
01:07It is two points on the board for Haromo and Ghetto, already eliminated from this year's Super Junior Tag Team.
01:35Oh, it's the best song. It's so good. Wait for it, it's coming. Wait for it.
01:47Dia! Let's go!
01:51Dragon Dia is always going to give you something to smile about, Gallop.
02:01Oh, why'd they call? Why'd they call you, man?
02:05It is Ryusuke Taguchi and Dragon Dia also walking in here tonight. Not with two points on the board, but with a total of four. An opportunity to walk away with a winning record from this year's Super Junior Tag League of six points.
02:22All up for grabs for the team of Funky Carrot, Dragon Dia and Taguchi.
02:29Funky Carrot? Oh yeah.
02:31Funky Carrot?
02:32Funky Carrot?
02:35Funky Carrot?
02:37Dragon Gate, Infinity Carot and Diamond.
02:41Dragon...
02:42Funky...
02:43He is the infinite carrot diamond...
02:46He heard of your 24 carrot goal. This is infinite.
02:49Fair enough.
02:51Iwaduma, PR Taishi, Tamuchi Ryusuke!
03:01I happen to believe that the only man that outshines Dragon Daya might be
03:14the fling off the reflection for Yuto Ice, maybe.
03:17Probably his haircut's enough.
03:22Four points on the board, Taguchi and Daya, Hiromu, Takahashi, and Gero.
03:26Two points on the board, both teams already eliminated, and look at this camaraderie between
03:32Hiromu and Gero.
03:35You love it.
03:36Even look at Taguchi's costume, bright pink.
03:40Oh, my.
03:47Alright, Sami, calm down, mate.
03:49Get him a drink first.
03:50Come on.
03:51Oh, we are set for a good one here tonight.
03:56Semi-main event.
03:57I cannot wait.
03:59Bell sounds.
04:00One fall, 30-minute time limit.
04:02Two points on the line, and an opportunity to extend your position in this year's Super Junior
04:09Tag League right into the closing stage.
04:10I need to see a hip attack, Daya to do something cool, and a Superfly.
04:16Oh, well, there's your checklist right there.
04:18I'm playing bingo right now.
04:20I mean, man, we've seen a lot, and I mean a lot of Gero main events in this series, shockingly
04:28so.
04:29And it's really been such a treat to witness.
04:31I mean, Hiromu and Takahashi has made Gero one of the most likable men on the New Japan
04:35roster.
04:36And I don't think any of us expected that in 2025.
04:38I know.
04:39Finley's not around, and look at him.
04:41Yes, watch this.
04:44Oh!
04:45No.
04:46You know, one thing that this has proven.
04:51Oh, wait a minute.
04:53Whoa.
04:54Yeah, Taguchi and Daya saw that one coming.
04:58Oh, didn't see this, though.
05:01Funky weapons all around for Hiromu and Gero.
05:13Yeah, I think Hiromu and Gero are going to go back to the drawing board here tonight.
05:15But one thing that Hiromu, alongside Gero, has proven in this tournament is that he does
05:20have the mind for some of the chicanery, some of the antics that Gero, and even members
05:25of the house like to pull out sometimes.
05:29Taking apart the turnbuckle pad and bringing out a weapon every now and again.
05:33But when Hiromu does it, fans seem to appreciate it much more than when Doki and Sho will do
05:38it in our main event.
05:39Yeah, I don't think you can really hate Hiromu, can you?
05:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
05:44Hiromu Takahashi and Gero only have two points on the board.
05:48Those two points, Hiromu has credited Gero's beer for awarding them.
05:52What?
05:53What?
05:54Yeah.
05:55Hiromu has had this fascination with Gero's beer throughout the tournament.
05:59Right.
06:00There's a sense that when he first walked into the locker room sharing it with the unaffiliated
06:05and the War Dogs, he saw Gero plucking beard hairs out and said every time Gero plucks
06:10a new hair out, he gets a new idea.
06:12Ah.
06:13And that's where the intelligence comes from.
06:17Yeah.
06:18Okay.
06:19We'll go with that.
06:20Right.
06:21Just sat in his little chair, plucking away his beard.
06:29Oh, no.
06:30Oh, no.
06:31Well, that's Gero who took that turnbuckle pad off and it has not worked in the favor of
06:35either one of the men.
06:38Yeah, Fukui going to be appreciative of that right there.
06:44Daya says, I didn't do that.
06:45That's not me.
06:46Daya!
06:47Daya!
06:48Daya!
06:49I'll tell you right now, I think Dragon Daya has been one of the most impressive additions
06:54from the Dragon Gate to the New Japan Pro Wrestling roster for the partnership we've seen.
06:58From Best of the Super Juniors, Super Junior Tag League, on and on and on.
07:03Watch this.
07:04Daya wants to turn this around.
07:06Inverted Boston Crab here.
07:08No.
07:09Oh, no.
07:11Oh, Callum, you know what's coming.
07:13I don't like it.
07:15Oh.
07:16I don't know who's enjoying this more.
07:20Have you ever heard of the human centipede?
07:29Yeah, I have.
07:30Yeah, yeah.
07:31It's something like that, I think.
07:33I do get upset sometimes, man.
07:35Like, that's, that's Taguchi.
07:38Apollo 55 Taguchi.
07:40Right.
07:41Now look at him, man.
07:42Where did it all go wrong?
07:44Come on.
07:45Somebody call Fergal Devitt and ask him.
07:47Please.
07:48Dragon Daya now.
07:50Let's bring this one to the right corner.
07:52Tag made in the corner, here comes Taguchi back in the fray.
07:59You never know what Ryu skates of Gucci are really going to be getting.
08:02I mean, you remember back in World Tag League last year?
08:04Taguchi had the working boots on alongside, who was it, Alex Zane?
08:07Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
08:09Oh, no.
08:10No.
08:11What's this?
08:12I don't, I don't think you're too happy about that one.
08:13All right, wrap it up.
08:14Inverted is kind of crazy, though.
08:15Oh.
08:16That's Taguchi cover here.
08:17Hey, Tsukow on and Hiromu.
08:19How do you reckon he comes up with all this stuff?
08:21Nah, well, I think there are some very unhappable things.
08:25And, uh, Taguchi, I mean, for what it's worth, we can talk about tag team wrestling tonight,
08:54Alem, and frequent tags here between Taguchi and Daya is the name of the game for this sort of tournament.
09:00Yeah, they're not giving Hiromu a chance to stop and slow down.
09:04They're constantly doing something to him.
09:09Constant movement, and it's really the name of the game in Dragon Gate.
09:12I mean, that's one thing that you've taken inspiration from.
09:15Beautiful standing moonsault cover here for Daya.
09:18Two count only, says referee Marty Asami.
09:21To be fair, speed-wise, I do think Daya is one of the few people that could keep up with me.
09:27Mmm.
09:28When you look at Dragon Daya, he's easily the smallest junior heavyweight that we have.
09:33Yeah, he is.
09:34Active in this tournament.
09:35Yes, he is.
09:36Yes, he is.
09:37Oh.
09:38It certainly packs his punch with every single shot throw.
09:43Oh, no, no, no.
09:44Let's watch this now.
09:45Pass by for Hiromu.
09:46Drops.
09:47Oh, come on.
09:48Well, I was gonna say perfect playing, you know.
09:54Now, Hiroba might have a broken nose there.
09:56Cover here.
09:56Two count.
09:58There he comes!
10:01Ah!
10:05Come on!
10:06Come on!
10:08Come on!
10:09Come on!
10:10Ooh!
10:10Ooh!
10:11Ooh!
10:12Ooh!
10:13Ooh!
10:13Ooh!
10:14Ooh!
10:15Ooh!
10:16Ooh!
10:17Ooh!
10:18Yeah!
10:19Ooh!
10:20To Gucci now.
10:22No, ho, ho, ho, ho!
10:24Well, one of them's gonna get going.
10:29And it's Dragon Daya who's gonna stop all the fun tonight.
10:35.
10:41You know,
10:46Takahashi wanting that tag in the blue corner has a clear path to it now.
10:52Tag made, here comes Gator.
10:53No, go on, bud.
10:55Boom.
10:58Oh.
10:59Oh.
11:00Well, that was having fun.
11:01Yeah, we're throwing it back Southern style here.
11:04Gator.
11:05Got it on the end.
11:08And watch Daya here off the top rope.
11:11Down by Gator.
11:13.
11:22And this is classic Gator as we've seen it.
11:25.
11:29.
11:30.
11:31Gator cover.
11:33Two count only.
11:34.
11:38.
11:40And Taguchi out and a bad, bad way right here.
11:43That war special currently from Gator.
11:45Gator center of the ring.
11:46And now bringing down, what is this?
11:48Crossface.
11:49.
11:50Crossface of Gator locked in.
11:52.
12:00Oh, the Taguchi, Taguchi really working on that ankle here.
12:03You know he loves that ankle lock, Calum.
12:05And we're gonna see it right now.
12:06.
12:10.
12:11.
12:12.
12:13.
12:14.
12:15.

13:08.
13:09Look at a single leg drop kick.
13:35That signature, signature horrible.
13:37No time to think.
13:38Not any bit at all.
13:43We are packed out for our semi main event tonight in Fukui.
13:46Hiromu Takahashi wants to be the one to walk away with the win.
13:49Time bomb inbound.
13:50No, Daiya right up and over the top here.
13:56Look at it.
13:57Tehenis take down, courtesy of one half of the Open, the Twin Gate champions.
14:03Calls in Ryusuke Toguchi for reinforcement.
14:06Yes.
14:07Right into the exposed turnbuckle, Hiromu.
14:19No, no, no.
14:20There it is.
14:21Good lord.

19:30to score yourself a position in the final of Super Junior Tag League this year.
19:35Dragon Taya and Taguchi are not going to rest on their laurels, though.
19:39They'll be back next year.
