00:00The interview with Hiromu Takashi coming up tomorrow on JPW1972.com.
00:12A lot of apprehension on the part of Hiromu when it comes to teaming with David Finlay.
00:19He talks about never really having had a conversation with David Finlay.
00:24Certainly not one that you and I could repeat here on air.
00:29I think the very first time they've actually sat down in 12th and they've had a chance has been tonight.
00:38GHC Junior Heavyweight Champion Hiromu Takashi and David Finlay.
00:46Finlay extended the hand to Yodosunji and Niyogoku in October.
00:54This collaboration between the War Dogs and the Unaffiliated.
01:01Where it was Finlay that made the move.
01:03Whether it was Finlay that had the idea or whether it was Ghetto that had the idea.
01:09I mean that remains to be seen.
01:11But Finlay made the move and we're still wondering just why.
01:16I'm wondering a lot of whys with Finlay.
01:25You know?
01:26Yeah.
01:27Finlay said I am the type to make moves.
01:31Performers are made on me.
01:33The way you talk when you have a small shillelagh.
01:39I think that's the famous quote.
01:43You speak softly and carry a shillelagh.
01:45Yeah.
01:46See how thin that's really nice.
01:48They say it's what you do with it, the count.
01:55That's true.
01:56That's true.
01:58Ghetto is masterminded.
02:00A lot masterminded.
02:02Kazuchika Okada.
02:04Ryoshi Tanahashi was the go-between to make that happen between the Don Callis family and New Japan Pro Wrestling.
02:11Evidently.
02:12One wonders what his mindset is with all of this.
02:19In the meantime, this test is certainly going to be stressed.
02:24It's going to be a big time stress test in Fujisawa because Hiromi Takashi and David Finlay will face David Finlay's man-picked recruits into the War Dogs.
02:34Undefeated as a tag team.
02:37The IWGP Tag Team Champions.
02:42But many have said the most exciting thing to have happened in tag team wrestling here in Japan for a long, long time.
02:53It wasn't comfy except.
02:56You know what goes great over some ice, you know?
02:59Go on.
03:00Sauce.
03:01Ah.
03:02Nice Baha Blastnik.
03:03That's right.
03:04Look at this big boy.
03:05Hey, big boy.
03:06Oscar is that.
03:07I hear marketing say that we can get over with the young ones if we talk about Oscar's height in a really obnoxious way.
03:126'7 is Oscar.
03:136'7 is Oscar.
03:14You've got to do the hands.
03:15Thankfully, we're not on camera.
03:16Well, we better help you stay off, but...
03:17We got to help you stay off.
03:18— Hi, there.
03:19What are you going to do?
03:20What are you going to do?
03:21To be honest, David Finlay is.
03:22I know it's looking for me now.
03:23No way to be honest.
03:24All right.
03:25I know.
03:26He wants to do one.
03:28That's my choice.
03:29Well, he wants to do my pocket.
03:30And he wants to do it.
03:31...
03:42Osco and Yudo Ice are the War Dogs, joined by Unaffiliated Young Lion Darkie Nagai.
04:12And Nagai, last time you would have seen him, Alex was just one of the Young Lion kids of the Ordinary Nogue Dojo set.
04:22It was earlier this summer that Nagai basically is still a Young Lion but said,
04:28I don't want any part of Hontai, I want to throw my lot in with Hiromi Takashi, Yodosuji, Shingotsukagi.
04:33Are those socks Young Lion regulation?
04:37Well, I mean, that's a great question.
04:40Nice pair of socks, but I think they're a little overdressed.
04:52I think Hiromi is barking, I don't know if that's War Dogs regulation, or maybe it is.
04:59I think he's saying who.
05:01Who goes in first? Who starts? Who starts? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who? Who?
05:11I think David Finley is woofing and Hiromi Takahashi, because he's Japanese, he's saying one.
05:21Hiromi Takahashi and Gedo, I think everything is all in the up and up.
05:25No, a little bit, no presentation.
05:29The fist bump.
05:31Going in.
05:35And Hiromi getting in the face with Yuto Ice.
05:39Hiromi had a lot of praise for Yuto Ice in his website interview that you'll be able to check out tomorrow.
05:47We've all had nothing but plaudits for the IWGP Tag Team Champions.
05:59I mean, last time, Alex, you would have seen Ice when he was a nice young lion boy.
06:11Look at him there.
06:12Yeah.
06:13A couple years ago, I mean, last year he was on excursion.
06:16Right.
06:18Yeah, I remember, I like the young lion version.
06:23He didn't do the middle finger.
06:26He's a sweet boy.
06:28He still had the attitude, I think, even then.
06:31He's still suffering from the most serious face of cutie patootie syndrome I've ever seen.
06:37You were the first person on the face of this planet, including Yuto Ice's own mother, to say that Ice is a cutie patootie.
06:46You gotta get in the head, you know?
06:47You gotta call him cutie patootie.
06:48Oh, my.
06:49That was...
06:50Yeah, try it.
06:51I mean, like, before you had them in World Tag League later on.
06:56Try calling him a cutie patootie.
06:57You see what happened.
06:58I'll let him go.
07:00I'll let him go.
07:06I remember going down to the base of Yuto Ice.
07:09You can see them wrap on their left knee.
07:11That's why you don't wrap it.
07:12Well, that's true.
07:14Certainly gives the game away.
07:16I think Ice was trying to hide it underneath the knee pack.
07:19But Ice still suffering the effects.
07:22Man!
07:23Oh, boy.
07:24A single smash for the Roshi Tanahashi in Anjo a couple weeks ago.
07:29Some serious lucha.
07:32Uh-oh.
07:34All right.
07:35Oscar has...
07:36Oscar is asking...
07:39Asking Ken to Sato about the weather in Germany right here.
07:42Oh!
07:43Outside!
07:44How is the weather in Germany right now?
07:46Snickle fritz, probably.
07:49Sure, you should ask Oscar.
07:51Nice way down to the bread basket there.
07:54Oh!
07:55Yeah, he only took a hell of a steal.
08:03A lot of swagger and very, very heavy kicks.
08:09I enjoy him kicking Gator, but I like him out.
08:13Well, you'll enjoy this.
08:15There it is.
08:16Listen to it.
08:18Bumba clap.
08:20Bumba clap.
08:22Bumba clap.
08:23Knees in the corner.
08:25Well, I think that's about it from Gator.
08:31Yeah, Gator's had enough Bumba clap.
08:33Gator!
08:35Gator!
08:36Gator!
08:37Gator!
08:38Gator!
08:39Gator!
08:40Gator!
08:41Gator getting behind Gator.
08:42Hiromi Takashi and David Finley not looking particularly willing
08:46to provide any assistance here.
08:49Pretty unusual for Corkin to get behind Gator.
08:52Well, I mean, it's ever since this collaboration with the War Dogs
08:58happened, the fans have taken a little bit of a shine to Gator.
09:04I think he's trying to smile.
09:06Oh, nearly wiped off the face.
09:08You saw the sweat fly as Oscar charged into the empty corner here.
09:12Gator's got to go fast.
09:14Now makes the no!
09:16No, he doesn't.
09:18Come on out!
09:19Come on out!
09:20Uh-oh.
09:21Oh, we go.
09:22Oh, no!
09:26And here we go.
09:28Oh, no.
09:32Finley knows every trick in the book.
09:37That's why I'm reading a book of tricks, actually.
09:39Well, that's a rare sightseeker.
09:41But David Finley grew up with a full knowledge of it.
09:46David Finley in kindergarten was giving low blow his stepping on
09:50feet and poking kids in the eye.
09:56And that's the attitude that was unlocked by Gator.
10:00David Finley at one time, a fun-loving soul.
10:03Gator tapped into the killer instinct that was lying at Finley.
10:07Oh.
10:08Made him lead over the War Dogs, lead over Bullet Club.
10:10Finley nearly showed Oscar who was boss right there.
10:14Oh, he got it.
10:15Uh-huh.
10:16Oh.
10:19Watch this.
10:20Oh, boy.
10:21Oh, brother.
10:22And it's Daikin a guy that wants to follow up.
10:30Got him.
10:31Got him in the air.
10:32Let's see what these socks can do.
10:37Whoa.
10:38They certainly gave him the spring right there.
10:40Oh, yeah.
10:41I think those purple laces on the boots as well,
10:43it's not exactly regulation.
10:45Yeah, he's bending the rules a little bit, and I like that.
10:47Oh.
10:51Watch this.
10:52Spinebuster.
10:53No.
10:54I mean, you're not going to outpower David Finley.
10:56Powerful band.
10:57Strongest man here in YouTube Band Pro Wrestling is Finley.
11:00Backslide though.
11:01Tried to legs.
11:02Referee was right there.
11:04The shoulders came up.
11:06And there it is.
11:07Irish curse.
11:08And right on crew.
11:10Hey, nice.
11:11Non-verbal communication.
11:13Working well here.
11:16Finley telling Yuroma to dive.
11:20Are you going to do it?
11:23And here's the question.
11:25Well, he wasn't sure.
11:28And Yuroma.
11:29Oh, no.
11:30Oh, Finley's going to make it.
11:31Oh, my God.
11:32Good Lord.
11:41Oh, no.
11:42He gets two.
11:43There was the question Yuroma raised in this interview about, well, is this going to be a case of both of us using one another?
11:53Or is it going to be a case of Finley using me?
11:55And I think we've known the answer to that right there.
11:58Jackknife and Daikinagai.
12:00And Daikinagai.
12:01Well, that would be it for this one.
12:08You know, I've been there.
12:09I've been in a room with shooting shoes.
12:11You just got to embrace it.
12:12Someone starts using you as a weapon.
12:14You got to embrace being the weapon.
12:16And then they stop kicking you in the stomach before they use you as a weapon, you know?
12:20So now, you know.
12:21Now, David Finley, whether the weapons are inanimate or animate, Finley doesn't really give a damn.
12:33Good job.
12:34Good job.
12:35Good job.
12:36Good job.
12:37Good job.
12:38Good job.
12:39Good job.
12:40Good job.
12:41And I think we've got a very clear answer.
12:46as you remember protesting.
12:47We've got a very clear answer as to just what shape this team takes.
12:56In the meantime, two days time, Alex.
12:59Finley brought Oskar and Yudaweiss into the War Dogs.
13:04They've had tremendous success ever since.
13:07And I think, I think, Alex, I think Finley, in a way, you're damned if you do and you don't
13:15You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't.
13:18Either you beat up the boss and you've beaten up the boss.
13:21But if you don't beat up the boss, well, the boss, you know what I mean?
13:25He's going to be curious with you.
13:26Right.
13:27And in the meantime,
13:30Get away.
13:32Get away.
13:33Engineer is the best
13:35Ice making it very clear that...
13:39Oh, man.
13:40Ice and Yoma are the best.
13:42So they've shared some drinks in the past, but...
13:45Drinks?
13:46Yeah, and they're not gonna be playing nice tomorrow or in two days time if it's sour.
13:52You're taking a look at it, everybody.
13:54Not a lot of haar ha.
13:56I said, look at this now.
14:12This has gone all over the place.
14:21Good lord.
14:24Something's gonna be done here.
14:27We're gonna keep these guys separated.
14:31Ring the damn bell.
14:32Well, ring it harder.
14:33They are ringing it.
14:34This was gonna be a recipe for disaster from the get-go.
14:47It's gonna be a recipe for a hell of a fight, 48 hours from now, November 22nd.
14:58It's our main event in Fujisawa Saturday, David Fridley, Hiromi Takahashi, Yuto Ice, and Oscar.
15:05You're on your own.
15:08Hey, you heard Fridley say to Hiromi, you're on your own.
15:11Three points.
15:13Maybe Hiromi thought he was kind of safe to talk a little extra smack there.
15:20He was not.
15:22One more.
15:29Okay.
15:31Take this off.
15:35Take this off.
15:39That's how easy it was to bet.
15:41That's how easy it was to bet.
15:42B Block action coming up Saturday.
15:45It is A Block tonight, and World Tag League gets officially underway next.
15:51Well, first, A Block contest.
15:54Here we go.
16:11Jopan PROSENCLE CENTER, CMLN, FANTASTICAM WANI-O!
16:19The world's largest pro team, CMLN, The Spell Estreagers, and the Superstars, and the Superstars.
