00:00We'll be back.
00:30Mark, I know you've competed in many junior tag teams in your career,
00:41many junior tournament in your career in the round robin style.
00:44It is a difficult, difficult position to know you walk into your final league
00:49matchup not in control of your own destiny, but still alive in a flat block competition.
00:56Kushida and Yuki Yoshioka are in just that position tonight, 6 points on the board.
01:01Good tie with the War Dogs and each other sweet boys if they win here tonight.
01:06Dragon Gate, Bump Out, Yuki Yoshioka!
01:16Niigata-ken Uonuma PR Ambassador, Time Splitter, Kushida!
01:25That's a good play Walker, but the thing is, all you can do is do your best.
01:28You don't control your own destiny, but you can control your effort.
01:31And I know that Kushida's gonna do everything he can to win,
01:34and I know both these guys are gonna show their spirit and try to get into that final.
01:38Six points on the board, Kushida and Yuki Yoshioka.
01:54Well, I'm having flashbacks Walker.
01:56Oh, yeah.
01:57Miss building that music.
01:58Yes, I understand.
02:00It is the team of Kukai and El Desperado at two points on the board,
02:15and my oh my, what a vault of grace it has been
02:19when it comes to championship intention for El Desperado in the last calendar month.
02:23El Desperado going from a dominant IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion
02:28to near the very bottom of the board of Block B.
02:31Akatona Kongshiki Sen 1勝3敗勝ち点 2,
02:34Monhe Guerrero, Kukai!
02:46El Desperado, El Desperado!
02:53Sometimes that's how it is, Walker.
02:55It's a game of ups and downs, momentum.
03:00So sometimes, you know, you're on that upswing for so long,
03:03and just that one loss happens, then you go in a down spiral.
03:06So they're playing spoiler.
03:08I mean, Dictico's not here, but they're playing spoiler tonight,
03:11and that's gonna be important for them to, if anything, for Desperado,
03:14get a little momentum back ending this tournament with a win.
03:17You know, it's interesting to talk about a team like Kushida and Yuki Yoshioka
03:22to not be in control of their own destiny.
03:25As a singles athlete coming into tag team competition,
03:28the nature of tag wrestling is that you're not in control of your own destiny.
03:31You have to rely so heavily on your tag team partner.
03:34You know that alongside Maloney is multiple-time junior tag team champions,
03:38and Kukai and Desperado have had to figure that out in this tournament as well.
03:41That's a great point, Walker.
03:42It's like the best thing you can do is meld with your teammates so you're just one.
03:47So you aren't relying on them.
03:49You're relying on each other.
03:50So it's interesting to see which of these teams that have been kind of thrown together
03:55and made on their own have melded the best.
04:00We are getting right into it here with Kushida and Yukioka.
04:03You have a battle interacting in this encounter outside of the Super Junior Tag Team competition.
04:10Kukai is one of the most colorful people he finds as one, and it is Kushida and Kukai.
04:15I mean, very different, unique styles.
04:17Kukai coming up with the Mexican independent scene.
04:20Kushida definitely had his own stays in Mexico over his career,
04:23but definitely prefers a little bit more of a technical approach than Kukai does.
04:27Yeah, much more of that amateur style technicality.
04:30At the same time, we've seen Kukai during this tournament show some of his technical prowess as well.
04:34So let's see if that key worked in tonight with Kushida.
04:38Beautiful little arm drag there.
04:41And one for good measure.
04:45It's such a difficult thing to do because Kushida blends technicality with speed in a way that so many people don't manage to do.
04:58It's very explosive, and if you're not prepared for it, well, who's to know if you're going to keep up?
05:03And we talk about, you know, he's on the older side, he's been in this for a long time.
05:07He's a big veteran at this, so he knows how to not only use that speed at the right times, but in the most effective ways.
05:13Right, Kushida celebrating his 45th birthday over the course of this tournament.
05:17Doesn't look a day over 30, man.
05:19Yeah, what an incredible present.
05:22Of course, he didn't have to gift upon himself with a victory tonight to try and tie with the War Dogs and Ichiban's speakers.
05:29The way that tie would work to break that math down for wrestling fans, six points on the board.
05:33If you win this matchup, you go to eight for Kushida and Yoshioka.
05:36As tags made in the corner, Yoshioka and Desperado your legal men.
05:40But if the War Dogs, which I know you yourself are pulling for in our main event tonight, that means our only three teams alive in Block B are all on eight points.
05:48They've all beaten one another, and therefore, we're going to have to find a way to settle this.
05:52And I'm not too certain how it's going to happen until it happens.
05:54You never know in New Japan, man.
05:56I'm sure they got something up their sleeve, the commission does, but we'll see.
06:00I've been on the other side of those chops, man.
06:12I'll never forget it.
06:13The best of the Super Junior in 31 matchup you had with Desperado in this building.
06:18Wow, but what a return.
06:20I don't know if I want to be on one of those chops on the receiving end.
06:23Oh, certainly not.
06:25That is a soul-crushing shot from Yuki Yoshioka.
06:30Oh!
06:33Rise of agony out of the former IWGP Junior Champion.
06:37Don't get on Desperado's bad side.
06:40Oh, man, that one took the hell out of him.
06:45A lot of people tend to forget this about some of these more basically seen strikes in professional wrestling.
06:51A shot like that can stop your heart.
06:53And we've seen it happen inside the original.
06:55It is ending lives and curves.
06:57Yeah, no, that can stop your heart easily.
06:59But there's some athleticism here.
07:01Wow.
07:02What a great mix of those high-powered chops, but then a beautiful dropkick there.
07:08Absolutely picture perfect on the button.
07:12Oh, Desperado, one of those athletes that I know follows a variety of professional wrestling organizations.
07:18Things as independent America like King Changer Wrestling to the Dragon Gate DDTs of the world.
07:23And, you know, I know Desperado is very familiar with all the Dragon Gate talent coming into tonight.
07:27Do you think that puts him at an advantage against a man like Yoshioka?
07:30Yeah, I think Desperado is maybe the only person who watches more wrestling than I do.
07:34You know, he stays up on everything and he's a real master of the game.
07:39He studies so well.
07:41And that mix of his passion and experience makes him such a deadly force.
07:46The action spilled out on the outside here.
07:48And they're just taking control here with Desperado.
07:50Oh, good lord.
07:55I mean, you know, outside of the way Kushida trying to yank the arm of Kukai out of the socket.
08:00This one could go all over.
08:05We've certainly seen it in places already.
08:07We have seen it.
08:10As Yoshioka sent right into that turnbuckle close.
08:13Dasami going to have to start a count here, finally trying to get some.
08:16There you go, Bobby.
08:18Three.
08:19Four.
08:20Five.
08:21Six.
08:22And Desperado is, and I don't know about Kukai, but they're not usually ones to win by a count out here.
08:27But you know what?
08:28Sometimes it's just a win's a win.
08:30You just need that momentum.
08:32So I wonder if they're just willing to win that way.
08:35It's so interesting to see how in a matter of a month, in a matter of a month, Desperado went from having a direct path to the Tokyo Dome to now nothing that you could feasibly see happening to put him in that position.
08:49And as a junior, you know, like that's the problem is there's not a lot of opportunities to really make a statement for yourself.
08:55You know, we had a couple more shows, but technically it's heavyweight time, you know?
09:00So, so just Bella's got to make an impact today.
09:04And now, yeah, Desperado continuing to crank the neck of Yuki Yoshioka.
09:09And Marty Asami going to get right on good and in there to check on Yoshioka.
09:13One half of the tag team champions in Dragon Gate.
09:16He opened the Twin Gate titles held by Yoshioka.
09:18And certainly, I mean, the tag team prowess of Yoshioka has been showing, gelling really, really well alongside a man he'd never even met prior to this tournament.
09:28And now to still be alive in the tournament this deep in the running against the War Dogs, Nijiban Sweet Boys, it's a great position to be in.
09:35Yeah, I mean, I think it might even be more than they hoped for, you know?
09:39Like just being in this position, having a chance, being alive.
09:42But let's see if they can finish the job though.
09:44That's a beautiful drop kick there.
09:46Kukai on the ninth floor.
09:48And cover here for Kukai.
09:50Two count only.
09:51I thought you and I were on the ninth floor.
09:52You know, it's so interesting to see New Japan Pro Wrestling represented.
10:02Dragon Gate and even the Mexican Indy slash Mishinoku Pro counting Kukai as well.
10:08A blend of all these styles here tonight.
10:10And there's only one that's going to walk away.
10:12Whoa!
10:13With a super junior tag victory in league action.
10:16A lucha chop, but right into a beautiful body slam.
10:19And Yoshioka, that might have been a last ditch effort.
10:21He's got to try and make his way to the blue corner.
10:24Get a tag from Kushida.
10:26Bring the veteran in and call it a day.
10:29And in comes Kushida.
10:31Always looking to pick apart that leg.
10:37And he's going to use that to pick apart that arm.
10:39Every body part's in trouble when you're in there with Kushida.
10:42Oh!
10:44And Desperado knows all too much about that.
10:47Kushida trying to change things around here.
10:49Drop down.
10:50Hip toss.
10:51Cartwheel.
10:52Drop kick.
10:53Beautiful.
10:54That is signature Kushida.
10:55You know it's in his arsenal.
10:57You know he's going to go for it eventually, but you can't predict it.
11:00And that's what makes Kushida so special.
11:02He's going to always go for that shote too in the high rent district here.
11:05And Osaka about to pay witness to a tree.
11:13And taken down Kukai.
11:18And Kukai tried to get to that red corner to make a tag to Despe.
11:21Despe was nowhere to be found.
11:22And it's back on Kushida and Yoshioka here.
11:25Kushi holding Yoshioka up.
11:27Oh, Desperado meanwhile.
11:29Yeah, right place at the right time.
11:30Yeah.
11:31Kushioka.
11:33Seen that before many times for Kushida.
11:36Watch it.
11:37Double drop kick there.
11:38Baseball slide to Despe.
11:43Kushida popped up.
11:45DDT.
11:46Caught him.
11:47An ode to Kevin Knight.
11:48Wow!
11:49And now, ah, separation here.
11:51Broke the grip now.
11:52And Kukai very quick to try and put it back together here.
11:55Come out!
11:57Kukai!
11:58And, yeah, Kushida doing what he can.
12:00He's bashing at the fingers to try and break apart his grip.
12:04And he does.
12:05And he's gonna do so.
12:06He's gonna do so successfully.
12:07But Kukai only for the moment to a bottom rope.
12:09And Asami's gotta break this one up.
12:11Even that small time he had that arm extended though,
12:14that could do a lot of damage to Kukai here.
12:17And you know Kushida's always looking for that hoverboard locker as well.
12:20So it could have an opening here.
12:21Yeah.
12:22Kushida just toying with Kukai.
12:27Easily the least experienced member of this matchup.
12:29Kukai is so new to the bright lights in the big stage of New Japan.
12:33He cannot afford to falter on his last league appearance.
12:45You never know if you're gonna get the invite back after that.
12:48Yeah.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Yeah.
12:51That was beautiful.
12:52Catch with the roll up.
12:53Cover two.
12:54And drop toehold there for Kukai.
12:58Try and stay on the attack of Kushida.
13:00Mahistral attempt.
13:01Not gonna happen.
13:02Kushida.
13:03No, no, no.
13:04He caught him.
13:05Oh.
13:06Oh.
13:07It all takes is three seconds, Walker.
13:11And Kukai trying to earn those three.
13:13Well, sometime sooner rather than later.
13:15Oh.
13:16Step over.
13:18And that left arm really plaguing Kukai.
13:21Yeah.
13:22He wasn't able to catch that hold.
13:24You can see the paid red shot on his face there.
13:27Yeah.
13:28Kushida loves to target that left arm for the hoverboard block.
13:30And Kushida.
13:31Wow.
13:32Those strikes are all funny.
13:33What was that?
13:35Right off the dome.
13:37Pele kick lands it for Kukai.
13:42And Kushida.
13:43That could have been a knockout shot to any lesser man, Clark.
13:45I think so.
13:46I don't know if he's gonna be able to get to Desperado.
13:47Yeah, Kukai's reeling right now.
13:48Yeah.
13:49Kushida.
13:50Oh, and it's Yuki Yoshioka.
13:51The only one to make the tag.
13:52Man, he wasn't able to get there, man.
13:53That rocked the shit out of him.
13:54And that back elbow there from Yoshioka.
13:55You know, he loves to use that splash, that high fly float.
13:57And Yoshioka waiting for Kukai to get back to his feet.
13:59And that back elbow there from Yoshioka.
14:01You know, he loves to use that splash, that high fly float.
14:04And Yoshioka waiting for Kukai to get back to his feet.
14:06And that back elbow there from Yoshioka.
14:07Yoshioka, watch this, off the ropes.
14:20Couple knees, cover, two.
14:24Man, this guy is a hell of an athlete.
14:28He barely looks to have broken a sweat off of something like that.
14:32And Kukai, well, broken a lot more than a sweat.
14:35Come on, Kukai!
14:43Kukai, Kukai, backstabber.
14:45Got him with the stabber.
14:46Yeah.
14:47That's the opening he needs right there, man.
14:48But Desperado is nowhere to be sight in his corner.
14:51Yeah, and then Kukai is gonna have to cross the ocean.
14:54That is Yoshioka to get there, even if he was.
15:01And this is all thanks to that Pele kick that we saw from Kushida.
15:04That's the one thing you're gonna credit to, well,
15:07Kukai being worse for wear here.
15:10He's gonna have to pull from deep, hooking him up for that hold.
15:13He might be able to do so here.
15:14Oh, Yoshioka, shots to the back of the head are gonna favor him.
15:17Yoshioka, no, no, no, Will Barrow.
15:27Got him.
15:28Got it.
15:29Oh.
15:30Want it.
15:31Hooked in.
15:32Turn it around.
15:33There it is.
15:34He's got it.
15:35Center stage right now.
15:36Oh.
15:37He wants to hook up the bow and arrow.
15:38He's got it.
15:39He's got it.
15:40Wow.
15:41Legs interlocked in the bow and arrow hold.
15:43This might be the end right here.
15:44Kushida's trying to get the ring, but Desperado is not gonna let him.
15:47Yoshioka and Kushida on the risk of elimination.
15:51Oh, Kushida going right back to that head that he kicked in.
15:57That is a painful, painful affair.
15:59Desperado and Kushida now, oh, good lord, wrenching that left arm back.
16:03Oh, and a super kick.
16:05Whoa.
16:06Talk about payback.
16:07Desperado and Kushida now trying that tag team offense here on Yoshioka.
16:17Out of the way goes Yuki.
16:18Captures in, Kushida driven down.
16:20Here comes Desperado.
16:22Oh.
16:23What a spear.
16:24Looking like Clark Connors with that.
16:26As I say, where did you think he picked that up from?
16:28Oh, but Yoshioka looking like himself.
16:32Yeah.
16:33That is a big, big power offense right there from Yuki Oshioka.
16:40But now everyone is gonna need a tag.
16:42Kushida is the only one who's in position right now.
16:47This has been a game of runs.
16:51Momentum is swinging back and forth in this match.
16:53And now both men up in the corners.
16:56That means both men need to crawl like their lives depend on it.
16:59Tag to Desper.
17:00Desperado first and foremost.
17:02Yoshioka cut off at the last second.
17:05Man.
17:06This match has been unpredictable.
17:11It's been incredible.
17:12Just to see how much these athletes are willing to withstand.
17:16Desperado and Kukai to play spoiler.
17:21If Yuki and Kushida are not gonna be able to do it.
17:25They're gonna find elimination here.
17:28Desperado, watch it.
17:29Holding in place.
17:30Oh!
17:31And Despe into the rope sends Kukai to.
17:34Wow!
17:35Shotae!
17:38Shotae to the face.
17:40Wow.
17:41Well, Kushida calling a play here to Yoshioka.
17:44And we're gonna see if Yuki can follow through right now.
17:47That high fly flow could be inbound.
17:49Desperado's getting up.
17:52Oh, watch it.
17:53From the top here.
17:54High fly.
17:56Attack.
17:57Cross body.
17:58He wants it again.
17:59Yeah, let's get it this time.
18:00Let's get it proper.
18:01This will take him to keep him into running.
18:02Despe's down.
18:03Despe's down.
18:04Kushida's got Kukai tied up.
18:05Here we go, Yoshioka.
18:06Oh!
18:07No water in the pool.
18:09Crashing out.
18:10No!
18:11Baseball punch.
18:12No!
18:13What a match!
18:14Desperado's feeling that fire, man.
18:16You've been in this arena whenever Desperado feels that fire, Clark.
18:23You know it's something different.
18:25Desperado now met with the punch there by Yoshioka.
18:29Despe with the elbow back in.
18:31You don't turn your back on either of these men.
18:32Yuki underneath here.
18:33Oh!
18:34Oh!
18:35Beheading the former Junior Champion.
18:36As if you turn your back as he'll take your head off right in front of you.
18:37You're not going to be able to turn anymore, my friend.
18:38Yuki Oshioca has got to capture it a victory right here, right now.
18:40Despe.
18:41Oh!
18:42That's the best.
18:43That's the best.
18:44That's the best.
18:45That's the best.
18:46Oh!
18:47Oh!
18:48Oh!
18:49Oh!
18:50Oh!
18:51Oh!
18:52Oh!
18:53Oh!
18:54Oh!
18:55Oh!
18:56Oh!
18:57Oh!
18:58Oh!
18:59Oh!
19:00Oh!
19:01Oh!
19:02Oh!
19:03Oh!
19:04Oh!
19:05Oh!
19:06Oh!
19:07Oh!
19:09Oh!
19:10If he covers him, that's it!
19:13It's got to be!
19:14It's got to be!
19:16One, two, one!
19:17Oh!
19:18Oh!
19:19My gosh!
19:20Look at him, Pinchai Loko!
19:22And Kukai now on the run, watch it out!
19:28Take to the sky!
19:29Suicita takes down Kushida.
19:30Damn near took off his own head on that top rope.
19:34These guys are giving it their all.
19:36All abandonment is left.
19:41Desperado has got to go to that place
19:43to put Yoshioka down here tonight forever.
19:47Oh!
19:49Reverse Tiger driver.
19:51Oh, no. This is going to be it.
19:54No, no, no. Yoshioka.
19:57Back on his feet.
19:59Cover. Cover, Yuki. Cover, Yuki.
20:01No!
20:02Desperado goes through.
20:05Has a hunt.
20:07And it's all game.
20:09Pincheloko!
20:13It's over.
20:15Ho-ho.
20:1716分 33秒.
20:19L Desperado選手の勝利です.
20:21And the run of Kushida and Yoshioka is done.
20:34The team has won 2-3-4勝.
20:36Kuchida and Yoshioka were won 3-2-2-6.
20:37Kuchida and Yoshioka are won 2-3-2勝.
20:41They're over.
20:42They are won 2-3-2.
20:43And the B-block is over.
20:44That's the official announcement.
20:47Announcement coming from Abe right now that Kushida and Yoshioka will end with a positive win-loss record of 3-2,
20:53but a respectable six points is not going to be enough to put you in to the final position.
20:58But man, a hell of a fight from a first-time team, not just in this tournament, but in pro wrestling overall.
21:05I would love to see a lot more of Yoshioka here in New Japan.
21:08Hell, I know you would love to tune into Dragon Gate like you do and see a lot more Kushida with Yoshioka.
21:14Can't wait to see the time splitter over there.
21:18But yeah, man, all four of these guys, you know, like you said, they're from all over the world.
21:22And in a New Japan ring, it's a beautiful sight to see.
21:25And, you know, we talked about Kukai making himself an impact every time, trying to come back.
