02:48IWGP世界ヘビー級選手権試合
02:52挑戦者 後藤博之VS王者 コノスキッタケシタ
03:00大沢
03:07彼女の動きった
03:08二人の動きった
03:10日未来
03:15二人の動きが
03:20二人の動きでした
05:56It was just last month in Yugo-Kosuma Hall that Konosuke Zageshtek completed his own 30-year journey.
06:20A journey to the pinnacle of professional wrestling, to the pinnacle, the symbol of strength that is the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.
06:29It had always been laboring under an inferiority complex.
06:34Professional wrestling against the world, the view of a DDT wrestler, the view of a Japanese wrestler in America.
06:41Now all of that's torn asunder.
06:42He is the World Heavyweight Champ, but that doesn't mean he's not insecure, Walker.
06:47That's an insecurity that men like Rocky Romero, that men like Don Callis have preyed upon and tried to keep Tuleyesta under his thumb using that power.
06:58I think it's very, very noticeable that the more Tekeshtek, the more strength he has had, the more strength around his waist, the more he's been able to be on his own.
07:07No Rocky Romero in his corner here tonight, Tekeshtek fighting to preserve the symbol of strength.
07:13That World Heavyweight Championship against Hiroki Gokso here in Gympie.
07:25Akakona,第14代 IWGP世界 Heavy Q Champion, Jin Alba, Kosuke Takeshta!
07:37And I would put it to you that the one sole remaining in security perhaps is the wedge that is driving out of it the Don Callis family over in America.
07:51The one wedge that perhaps many have called the greatest IWGP champion of all time, that being Kansuji Koukata.
07:57That is the wedge now, and a man who has had a very deep and long history with Hiroki Gokso.
08:04This match perhaps a lot about the men who aren't here in Gifu, but tonight is all about the men who are.
08:17And look at the men in his corner.
08:19Young Lion, Tatsuya Matsumoto very recently calling to quote-unquote join Goto's revolutionary army.
08:27Goto almost laughing at the gumption of this young lion, but has seconded Goto to ringside alongside Yoshihashi.
08:34Could this be the rebuilding process under Hiroki Gokso?
08:38The bell sounds.
08:39One fall, 60-minute time limit for the World Heavyweight Championship.
08:43Hiroki Gokso!
08:45Hiroki Gokso!
08:46Hiroki Gokso!
08:48Hiroki Gokso!
08:50Hiroki Gokso from just down the road in Kawano and Miyake and, well, I think even if he wasn't near to his hometown, this crowd would be solidly behind Hiroki Gokso and, well, Gokso figuratively having a lot of people behind him while Konosuke's catched up finding all of his hometown tonight.
09:10It is the pure motivation for Hiroki Gokso to bring the World Heavyweight Championship back to Hontai and represent in the main event of the Tokyo Dome in what many on this roster, many fans watching at home, you and I ourselves would consider almost a selfless act.
09:28But you look to the side of Konosuke's catched up.
09:31You talk about insecurity earlier on.
09:33The most insecure people that I have met, and trust me, this sport is filled with a lot of them, the most insecure people I've met have often been the most self-serving.
09:40Individuals in professional wrestling.
09:42But the goal of Konosuke Takeshita to unite pro wrestling across the world in the main event of the Tokyo Dome as the World Heavyweight Champion under what?
09:50Under the name Konosuke Takeshita.
09:52Yes, I see your point, and I think that Konosuke Takeshita certainly has an ego, but you don't get to be one of the best in the world unless you do have that ego.
10:01And at the end of the day, as Takeshita calls it, that World Heavyweight Championship, the pinnacle of professional wrestling,
10:10it says that you are the strongest, the best in the world, and there is only one man that can have that label.
10:16Great shoulder tackle there from Hiroki Goto, as this is a very similar start to the one and only singles match we have ever seen these two go toe-to-toe,
10:34and it was back in G134 last year.
10:37Hiroki Goto putting down Konosuke Takeshita and Block B back in Nagoya.
10:41Goto victorious that night, and do you remember, Takeshita at that point was not signed to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
10:48Yes.
10:48Goto said to Takeshita that if he wants to sign, then he should join Chaos.
10:52Well, since Chaos, since Dissolve, but certainly an interesting prospect.
11:02Maybe in a different universe, and you can almost hear right away the people in the crowd pleading with Hiroki Goto to beat Takeshita here tonight.
11:09One, two, three.
11:13Self-serving nature of Konosuke Takeshita certainly a trickle-down effect from the leadership in the Don Callis family, you can see.
11:20I mean, I don't, you know, I think there's a nature if you say self-serving, it can have, you know, a much more negative intonation.
11:27I think that it's more a fact that Takeshita knows that it's a lonely road at the top.
11:32You have people that support you, of course, his wife, Yuka Sakzaki at home, but, you know, I mean, it's, it's more about Takeshita knows that the, oh, man, heavy is the head that wears the crown, it's lonely at the top.
11:46That is a road that Takeshita has chosen for himself. It isn't about ego. It is more about making sure that you are the best in the world.
11:57What it is, what it isn't. It's always going to be a matter of perspective, and the one thing that cannot be disputed between these two is that there is a massive difference in perspective about the sport of pro wrestling between these two men.
12:12Well, yeah, I mean, Takeshita says that, hey, there are people, you know, I mean, he sort of viewed Hiroki Goto's mindset as somewhat too narrow, someone that has only ever wrestled here in New Japan pro wrestling, and, yes, it may be important for the World Heavyweight Champion to make all the towns in Japan.
12:30Takeshita says, well, it's important for towns worldwide to know who the best is, and he's going to find it out right now.
12:38Yeah, Gifu is certainly reminded of who the best in the world currently stands, and until that title is around Goto's waist by the end of this one, it has to be called Karosuke Takeshita.
12:52When we talk about Goto dedicating his life to New Japan pro wrestling, he's certainly dedicated his singles matches this year to the IWGP World Heavyweight title.
13:02Win, loss, and draw, every single singles affair for Goto has been for this title.
13:06Yeah, and, oh.
13:08Cover only finds one for Takeshita.
13:10Yeah, seven defenses, the most on record at the World Heavyweight Championship to date.
13:16And a journey that began in the Tokyo Dome this year, very poetic it would be if Hiroki Goto walks out last in Wrestle Kingdom 20 as IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
13:28G1 Climax 35 winner.
13:32We have a pair of G1 Climax winners in the ring right now.
13:352008, I believe, Hiroki Goto.
13:37Yes, correct.
13:38Takeshita, current IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
13:42I truly believe, heading into Osaka, heading into February of this year, before Goto had ever won the world title, it was the eternal question, the eternal if.
13:51What if Goto wins the world title?
13:53What does New Japan look like?
13:54But now that Goto has done so, it's proven to the world, it's proven to himself that he can accomplish that goal.
13:59Does it make this match easier mentally for Goto?
14:02Does it, or does it make it all the harder, you know what I mean?
14:06You know what I mean?
14:06It's so hard to say.
14:08You know, unfortunately, neither you or I have been IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
14:11You know, perhaps, fortunately, we could say that.
14:15But certainly, I mean, I think you always talk about that difficult second album, the sophomore blues, as they say.
14:22You know what I mean?
14:22It can be very, very difficult once you've been at the top of the mountain to reclaim that glory once you've lost it once.
14:28It's a case that plans to not lose it, ever.
14:36It's a case that may very well be the forever IWGP World Heavyweight Champion when all is said and done.
14:44And the key we might see further into this matchup, Walker, is that heavy rat that's still on the right arm.
14:49But if you like, he goes, oh, that's what lost him four months of this year, thanks to the heat of that Saber Jr.
15:00We saw how Takeshita took Saber Jr. to the limit and passed such.
15:04Oh, he's going to it. He's going to that arm, by the way.
15:07And this is smart. This is smart from Takeshita.
15:09The fans in Gifu may not like it.
15:11And an attempted separation for that elbow from Takeshita to Gotoh.
15:22And when we get to talking about elbows, there are none more world-class than Konosuke Takeshita, certainly.
15:28Yeah, world-class elbow.
15:31The power drive knee as well.
15:33And also recently changed the name of that knee to the Wagamama.
15:36Wagamama being a, whether it represents selfishness, selfish desires, selfish crests.
15:44And you questioned the selfish call earlier.
15:46Yeah.
15:47Takeshita with the cover here.
15:50Very Wagamama approach for Takeshita in New Japan Pro Wrestling.
15:54And can we talk a little bit about the reception?
15:57Takeshita knew that it was going to be a very divisive one when he eventually won the World Heavyweight Title,
16:02when he won the G1 Climax.
16:04Can you comment on that on your own opinion?
16:05I think it was a very mature stance on his part to say, well, hey, I'm a busy man.
16:10I don't have time to turn people who have already made their mind up about me.
16:14I'm not going to change your mind.
16:16Well, I'm going to be right there and fight harder than anybody ever has for the people that are with me.
16:21I think that's a very sensible approach to take.
16:24You know, I think Rocky, conversely, who spent the night after Ryogoku talking down Hiroki Goto because he's got an axe to grind with Chaos.
16:33Yeah, I mean, I think that was about trying to use all the insecurities of Takeshita against him, in my opinion.
16:41And there's always mental manipulation within leadership in the Don Callis family.
16:45And Kanalski and Takeshita, you may look at him as a victim, but he stands for a champion right now.
16:49Misdirected and a larian.
16:51Oh, but with that predominant right side of Goto being warned over in the interim.
16:59Yeah, and you think about all the things he does off of that right side and all the things he'll instinctively go to if he tries to go for the GTW, if he tries to go for the GTR, and all of those variations of it, he'll be looking to swing that right elbow.
17:13And Kanalski and Takeshita in the corner, courtesy of the former world champion, driven down with the back suplex, and Takeshita in the ringer, cover here for Goto, and it's two.
17:32Could be made a short reign here tonight.
17:35It is day 20 in the reign of Kanalski and Takeshita for the world title.
17:39I would say, I mean, entirely could it pass, there being perhaps a World Heavyweight Championship match towards the end of the year, but I would say, more likely than not, that this will be the last defense we see ahead of the Tokyo Dome.
18:00Oh, that dangerous back elbow, and a huge windup there is going to rock.
18:05Goto for the time being, again, misdirected.
18:07Yeah, this time.
18:08Takeshita caught it.
18:11Beautiful exploder there.
18:14For me once, shame on me.
18:16Takeshita didn't get fooled again.
18:18Now Goto, dangerous position on the apron.
18:21Yeah, Goto's got to try and avoid this position at all costs before Takeshita capitalizes on it.
18:29Yeah, watch Kanalski now.
18:31Ooh, like a shotgun blast in Gipu.
18:35And he won't be safe there either.
18:37That was just the setup to what's coming next.
18:43Off the ropes here to Keshtar!
18:45Oh, man.
18:45Oh, man.
18:49I thought that was a shotgun blast.
18:51We fell back to our feet here in Gipu, the heavy side.
18:55There you see it again.
18:57Wow.
18:57Oh, both men's bodies hitting the hard concrete floor here.
19:04The bulk of Takeshita being borne by the head of Hiroki Goto.
19:11And Chris, I've got to tell you right now, it's not just about watching the offense, but it's watching the aftermath.
19:18And Kanalski, Takeshita immediately tending to that knee just after the fact.
19:22Meanwhile, Goto has not taken attention away from that damaged right arm.
19:27The Takeshita may not have been wrestling here in New Japan Pro Wrestling over the road to this event during Super Junior Tag League, but he has been wrestling weekly, sometimes multiple times a week.
19:40And the rigors and the damage has amounted for him.
19:48Hiroki Goto has had this entire tour, rehabbing, preparing training for this matchup.
19:56The Takeshita line lands out for the world champion.
20:10The Bask in the glory of the Alpha.
20:13We may be putting an end to this one sooner rather than later.
20:16You know that Takeshita loves that raging fire, Chris.
20:19If he can get it, and Goto knows full well what that means.
20:29Watch it.
20:30Big, big vertical drop down for Hiroki Goto to Kanalski and Takeshita.
20:35And Takeshita, in the wake of that match with Hiroki Goto during G1 Climax just last year, said it was the first time that I'd stepped in a New Japan Pro Wrestling ring, wrestling against someone I used to watch as a kid.
20:50You know, and maybe the stars that were in those eyes in the summer of 2024, long, long since extinguished now, as Takeshita holds the top prize in pro wrestling.
21:01Look out at the distance here.
21:03Oh, Goto going to close that distance the way he only can.
21:08Takeshita turns it around, though, and a huge boot through the body of Goto.
21:15Blue thunder bomb.
21:18Could it be?
21:19Will it?
21:20No.
21:21A hell of a kick, a hell of a blue thunder, and then Goto just rolled the shoulder there.
21:25For the goal of Kanalski and Takeshita to be to unite pro wrestling under his name in the Tokyo Dome, to be world heavyweight champion in that position.
21:39New Japan Pro Wrestling itself doesn't feel too united at all under Takeshita right now.
21:44Well, I think that is certainly a conversation to be had.
21:49I think that's a fair point.
21:52What does the world look like?
21:54But Kanalski and Takeshita has every single means of production in the professional wrestling industry.
22:01A lot of men and women, a lot of people in power don't want that to happen.
22:06Oh, yeah, Takeshita, that's a delayed effect there.
22:18It's going to have long-term consequences.
22:22Not many, and not many easily, can rock the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
22:27Hell of a jaw, Kanalski-Esta.
22:31For what you take, you have to be able to dish it out twice as hard,
22:35three times as hard.
22:38Surgically repaired, join your kick.
22:39Oh!
22:41That was a crack.
22:42That was a crack.
22:44Takeshita with the boot.
22:46Watch it, watch it.
22:48Sherman, but he's back on the feet.
22:49Takeshita caught it.
22:50And again with the boot one more time.
22:53Oh, for the shoulders, here we go.
22:55Oh!
22:58Ushikaroshi.
23:05Gotoh is a veteran whose body has been beaten and beaten like a drum with age.
23:11From his debut in this very prefecture, in this very city,
23:17to now challenging 23 years down the line
23:20for the World Heavyweight Championship.
23:33We are 15 minutes down, and that GTR may not find us 16.
23:40You can see all the big guns are coming out of Gotoh.
23:44It's a reverse GTR, Takeshita only down with a leg.
23:49Oh, and those people are behind.
23:51Hiroki Gotoh Walker, such a difficult man to stop.
23:58Gotoh might put it down here.
23:59GTR found his way out, didn't Takeshita?
24:02Oh, the rip of that neck.
24:03That crank of the neck, indeed.
24:06It's been a sleeper hold here, Chris.
24:08That is now, Takeshita, a lot of success.
24:09Yeah, that Chikawin facelot started using it as a finish
24:13in his early days in DDT.
24:16And that hold resurrected during the G1 Climax this summer.
24:21Put away, Gay Kid.
24:23He's only gotten heavier since those DDT days.
24:25He's only gotten more technical since those DDT days.
24:29And Hiroki Gotoh, oh, good Lord have mercy,
24:32is in a bad, bad way, the worst way that you can.
24:34Gay Kid failed to stop it through this hold.
24:37Shingo Takagi failed to stop it through this hold.
24:40Gotoh has paid it.
24:41Now he needs the Revolutionary Army more than ever.
24:44Oh, you're in.
24:45Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
24:51Takeshita again, still holding on Vice-like from Takeshita to Gotoh.
24:56Gotoh's got to try and will himself to the bottom rope here, Chris, and he does.
25:00You can almost sense Gotoh, or rather Takeshita losing feeling in the fingers
25:09from how tight that grip was around Gotoh's body.
25:12How tight the grip he had on Gotoh, how tight the grip he has on the IWGP World Everweight Championship.
25:20How tight the grip has been on people in power, on Konosuke Takeshita.
25:25Yeah, whether those people are there or not, Takeshita, the top moneymaker right now in New Japan.
25:32Is he going to pull up to the pay window tonight?
25:35Yeah.
25:38Whoa, whoa, whoa.
25:39Hey, hey, hey, hey, that's right.
25:40We'll do it, hey.
25:46Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
25:53Let's catch that.
25:58Watch it.
25:59Oh, God, oh, God.
26:00Good Lord.
26:01Oh.
26:04Oh.
26:05Learn the heart to the high knee from Jina Keanu.
26:07Yeah.
26:09Buried it there into the skull of Gotoh.
26:12Oh, no.
26:15This could spell disaster for Gotoh.
26:17Yeah.
26:18Potentially so.
26:20Yeah.
26:20I don't know what it did to Zack Sabre Jr. in the G1 semis.
26:23No, no, no, no, don't remind us.
26:26We might have to relive it here tonight in G-Fu.
26:29.
26:43Maybe Gota thinking a different kind of revolution.
26:47Gota, Gota.
26:50From the early days to the night.
26:53Heighton!
26:56Heighton's on it.
27:00No!
27:05That is a true throwback for Hiroki Gota tonight.
27:10He says a junior anyway now, but rarely do we see it out of Gota.
27:17Maybe not even since last year's G1, Chris.
27:22I think that was the last time against Takeshita himself.
27:25There you go.
27:26.
27:29Gota feeling every single bit of energy tonight in G-Fu.
27:34He needs to use every single bit of that energy if he's going to beat Take.
27:38I like it.
27:39Oh, here we go.
27:40Oh!
27:41Getsu with style, G-C-Dub.
27:44Could it be for the title?
27:46No!
27:47.
27:48.
27:53The last time Hiroki Gota wrestled in G-Fu.
27:59His mother and father were sat right at ringside.
28:02Tonight, they watch from the heavens.
28:05.
28:06Oh!
28:07And he cannot fail them here!
28:09Takeshita!
28:10Oh!
28:11No!
28:12No!
28:13No!
28:14No!
28:15No!
28:16No!
28:17No!
28:18No!
28:19No!
28:20no!
28:21No!
28:22He can't keep him down.
28:23You've got to catch the Lariat!
28:25No!
28:26No!
28:27No!
28:28He's got to catch the Lariat!
28:29No!
28:30No!
28:31No!
28:33No!
28:34No!
28:36He can't stand up, he can't stand down.
28:40No!
28:41No!
28:42He can't stand up, he can't stand up!
28:44No!
28:46I can't stand up!
28:47No!
28:48nobody has ever taken, he may walk a path that very, very few have this year in beating Hiroki Goto one-on-one.
28:59Takeshda serves up, what's that raging fire? No, no! No, no, no, no!
29:06Goto! Goto, goto, goto, goto!
29:11Goto Revolution! Cover him!
29:13He's not there, he's not close enough!
29:18Oh, New Japan Pro Wrestling!
29:22Oh, nearly saved by Hiroki Goto!
29:33Goto cannot allow that World Heavyweight title to be packed into a suitcase,
29:38taken back to AEW, taken back to the United States!
29:42Oh, we need the champion on the road to the Tokyo Dome!
29:48Yeah!
29:49Oh, he's got it!
29:50GTR, maybe the Kai version!
29:52Oh!
29:53Poison Rana!
29:55Wow!
29:56That's Saito!
29:57Oh, the Wakabama got it!
29:58Selfishly, victoriously!
29:59No!
30:00No!
30:01To catch this, not done!
30:02To catch this, not out of it!
30:03Watch out here!
30:04Goto!
30:05Grab the trucks!
30:06Last ride!
30:07Every single bit he had!
30:08And it's still not enough!
30:09How?
30:10How is it now?
30:11It is still not enough!
30:12How the hell did Goto do that just now?
30:14He did it because of the thousands here at Goodfuck!
30:18Because of his family, whether they were up in the heavens or if they're here tonight!
30:24The power of that revolution!
30:28May just be too much for even Tagesta to overcome!
30:29And it's all for that grand prize right there!
30:35The IWGP World Heavyweight title in the balance!
30:41The revolution does not die until it's captain goes down!
30:42Ah!
30:43Oh, caught the Wakabaka knee!
30:44The power of that revolution!
30:45May just be too much for even Tagesta to overcome!
30:50And it's all for that grand prize right there!
30:52The IWGP World Heavyweight title in the balance!
30:57The revolution does not die until it's captain goes down!
31:04Ah!
31:05Oh!
31:06Caught the Wakabaka knee!
31:1035, 35,000!
31:12Ah!
31:15Teama, oh, we're in trouble!
31:17Oh, yeah, Teaka's just in trouble!
31:20Oh!
31:21Ooh!
31:22Right on the back of the neck!
31:25Lance D'Alpha!
31:26What a moment.
31:31Ken Lee!
31:37There is a ruffle of thunder and a feeling of electricity in the air tonight.
31:55Can lightning strike twice?
31:57Can lightning go to hell in a bottle?
32:01The rookie Gotoh must call on every spiritual element to his mother and father, to the people in Gifu tonight.
32:17Oh!
32:23Decapitated him.
32:25To call yourself the champion one more time.
32:29There's an E-Honda-like blow.
32:32No, no, no.
32:33It's a catch.
32:34Oh!
32:35Man!
32:36That's a real fighter.
32:38Oh!
32:39That's a real knee.
32:41That might be a real KO.
32:44But Decapitated is going to make sure.
32:47Decapitated to put it away.
32:50Got it.
32:52Raging fire!
32:56He's done it.
32:58He's done it.
33:01In 24 minutes.
33:03It's the winner of Kodosuke-Makeshita.
33:06You can argue Walker with his philosophy, you can argue with his approach to professional wrestling.
33:17You can argue with what he wants to do to bring things forward.
33:23Not just for New Japan, but for our entire medium, our entire sport.
33:29But one thing that you cannot argue with is Kodosuke-Takeshita's strength, his intensity, his ability, and the fact that tonight, he is the best professional wrestler in the world.
33:42Well, there are fans heading to the exit, who perhaps have made up their minds about the Alpha.
33:59But we're going to hear from the World Heavyweight Champion as he addresses the one-seater winner.
34:05The first defense, and still IWGP World Heavyweight Champion, for now and maybe forever, is the Alpha, Kodosuke-Takeshita.
34:26Well, I wonder, what are the Don Callis family thinking right now?
34:38Because if they want to get all of the money out of Tekesha that is worth, they want to make sure that he stays in that group.
34:49Gotoh!
34:50Gotoh!
34:51Just wait a minute.
34:53Just wait a minute.
34:54Just wait a minute.
34:55I can't wait.
34:57Gotoh!
34:58I can't wait.
34:59I can't wait.
35:00I can't wait.
35:01What's the difference between my and your pro wrestling thinking?
35:05I can't wait.
35:06I can't wait.
35:07I can't wait.
35:08I can't wait until now.
35:09I can't wait until now.
35:10But...
35:11I can't wait until now.
35:13I can't wait until now.
35:14But...
35:15They might not mix.
35:17Again.
35:18Kodosuke-Takeshita and I can't wait until now.
35:23But if they do not...
35:24If they do not...
35:25If they do not...
35:26If they do not...
35:27When they do not...
35:28I can't wait until now.
35:30You and me.
35:32Perhaps as I go forward in my professional wrestling career, maybe I might learn just a little bit from the Gotoh Revolution.
35:41Right now we are one-on-one, and I am thankful that I have an IWGP level fight, and I am thank you for making sure I have an IWGP level fight with you.
36:11Goto asks one more as he shook the hand of Tegeshta.
36:25Like oil and water, the progressing essences of Tegeshta and Goto, but it was a hell of a mix tonight.
36:41So, since I have defended this IWGP belt here in Gifu, the next has to be January 4th in Tokyo Dome, and I want to put this belt on the line.
37:05So, who has the courage to step to me in the Tokyo Dome? I want you to stand in front of me right now.
37:21Right now.
37:33Oh yes!
37:35Well, you heard what he said earlier tonight, Walker. Leave New Japan Pro Wrestling to me.
37:47Tanahashi, the seal of authority. The ball is in your court.
37:51Well, the quarterback's got the ball right now.
37:57Something from me right now.
38:03I will keep it here.
38:18Hi, please.
38:19Next it's going to be me.
38:31He once said, you have to be an idiot.
38:48I am not the kind of idiot that would challenge Tananashi for his retirement match.
38:57I am just the kind of idiot to do whatever it takes for the IWGP Wild title and for New Japan Pro Wrestling.
39:06So my question to you is, are you ready?
39:09Tukesita will fight me at Tokyo Dome.
39:17Fight me in the Tokyo Dome, Tukesita.
39:20Fight me in the Tokyo Dome.
39:27I understand exactly how you feel.
39:35So, near the Tokyo Dome, are you ready to fight me?
39:47And if you are, you should get your championship on the line as well.
39:58Oh, yeah, baby.
40:08Of course.
40:12I am more than ready.
40:19Are you?
40:24It was back in Ryugoku, Chris, where Kenosuke Tukesita addressed for Okigoto and said that he expected somewhat of a bit of a newer, fresher generation.
40:45It may have taken longer than Tukesita expected, but he has gotten exactly what he has asked for in the form of not just the future, but the present.
40:56The global heavyweight champion, the world heavyweight champion, the Tokyo Dome, January 4th, 2026.
41:04It's our main event.
41:19The world heavyweight champion, the world heavyweight champion, and the world heavyweight champion.
41:39January 4th, January 4th in the Tokyo Dome, you will see just that with me and Yoda Suji.
41:49And everybody who comes to the Tokyo Dome and everybody watching the New Japan World on TV across Japan, my promise to you is you will see the very best.
42:02I will keep on saying it because I believe it, because I feel it, I know it.
42:13I know that I can be in pro wrestling into a world where pro wrestling isn't just the best thing, but the only thing.
42:21That is my message to you from the Alpha.
42:24The 14th IWGP champion, Komosuke Takesita.
42:42The last game, Sugestia is a big money player.
42:46High risks bring high rewards.
42:49First time in the Tokyo Dome, a double championship environment.
42:53And he walked out as AEW international champion and never openweight champion.
42:57One year later on, two IWGP titles will be on the line in the biggest wrestle kingdom of all time.
43:07It is not just the IWGP World Heavyweight title, the IWGP Global Heavyweight title.
43:25It goes beyond championship recognition or title glory.
43:29Not only does the Tokyo Dome set the trend for the future.
43:36Not only does it set the standard for 2026 and years to come.
43:42But this could have shock waves that go decades into the future of New Japan Pro Wrestling and beyond.
43:52Yota Tsuji said, Tanahashi you can leave NJPW to me.
44:02Well, Komosuke Takesita, as much as we have seen it, Pro Wrestling and NJPW go hand in hand as far as this fan is concerned with the IWGP goal.
44:14He's set to defend it January 4th.
44:16Hand in hand and at the feet of the Alpha, that is the plan for Komosuke Takesita in the Tokyo Dome.
44:23And there are a lot, a lot of people, and rightfully so, that side with that revolution.
44:32But for the people that side with New Japan Pro Wrestling, they're gonna be 45,000 in Yota Tsuji's corner come January 4th, 2026.
44:42But just like you cannot argue the point, or you can't argue against the point that Konosuke Takesita ends this night in November the best in the world.
45:01I don't think you can argue the point that Takesita versus Tsuji is the best money match that you can have to start off 2026.
45:10There is no doubt about it. Victory goes the way of your IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
45:20And nothing happens gets to a win-winning team.
45:25When we do the last puzzle book, it'sichtet me's quarterly film.
45:26If you're env ini of every study on your set of people to do 301, and the people that are bound to kick maybe off 5 or 4.
45:30It wholeOnilles itself will actually never besuet by God".
45:31There is no doubt about it.
45:32So there is no doubt about it.
45:33It's playing Play peasistics and a lot of people who are running.
45:35Where are you among Sanskrit angles all the time came after the stage.
45:38Here are more немного sitcoms, but there are moreSHB- scarpa devices here.
45:43There is a moment when the first puzzle is a snapshot that treated me around a book.
45:45There is no doubt about it.
