00:28Wrestling fans, we are back here on NJPW World with more action.
00:31Shomakato, Young Lion hits ringside alongside Shota Umano and Yuya Uemura.
00:36I'm Walker Stewart, and I'm gonna be joined right here, right now by the Murderhawk
00:40Monster.
00:41We welcome Lance Archer, how are you?
00:42What up, man?
00:43How are you doing today?
00:45I'm feeling good.
00:46We have a great night of action ahead of us.
00:48We've had a great night so far, and we are getting set here tonight.
00:52Shota Umano and Yuya Uemura out of Block B, four points on the board only.
00:58For the multi-duo of Umano and Uemura, and these two men are gonna be
01:02previewing our main event to come, 24 hours, tomorrow.
01:07It's gonna be coming up very soon against David Finley and Horomo Takahashi.
01:12Yeah, these two boys, man, I have a lot of respect for them.
01:14They put up a hell of a fight against Zayn the other night.
01:18They got the win, they got lucky, it won't happen again, I'll tell you about that.
01:28This has got to be the largest broadcast booth in the history of this company.
01:44Probably.
01:45Yeah, I mean, it's gotta be.
01:46Are you talking about us?
01:47I think you and I, yes, you and I, this is also one of the smallest tables I've ever
01:51been at.
01:52It is.
01:53So this is, you know.
01:54It is.
01:55If you ever hear wrestlers talking about Japanese tables, this is the example of it.
01:57And they hurt like hell.
01:58We are feeling it.
02:06It is the GHC Junior Heavyweight Champion out of Pro Wrestling NOAA New Japan born,
02:35and Hiromu Takahashi makes his way down to ringside tonight, and he has not come alone.
02:55Lance, it's four points on the board for David Finley and Hiromu Takahashi making their way into tonight's night of action.
03:02But as far as David Finley is saying, Finley is saying that he himself has four points in that Hiromu because he has suffered two pinball losses in this tournament.
03:11He has negative four points.
03:12I don't think Finley really understands how Takahashi wrestling was.
03:15Yeah, you know, if this team actually got on the same page, they might actually be dangerous because both of them individually are facing amazing.
03:24But together as a team, they've kind of been off a little bit, you know, we beat them, Monstersauce beat them.
03:32It wasn't that hard for us, but a lot of that has to do with the fact that they just weren't on the same page.
03:36And maybe because I'm about three times this time.
03:46And I don't know if you're aware of this, I think I've been quoting you a lot in the broadcast booth recently the past few days.
04:05I don't know if you've ever heard of something you said in post-match comments about Finley and Hiromu heading into Monstersauce's match against these two.
04:11Okay.
04:12This idea that, you know, Alex Zane loves when you throw him around.
04:16Yeah, absolutely.
04:17David Finley and throwing around Hiromu Takahashi, I don't think Hiromu is a big fan of that.
04:21No, no, no.
04:21I think it's all involuntary on Hiromu's part.
04:27It's been kind of fun to watch.
04:28You know, we didn't really have the throw battle that I thought we'd have the other night, but I did throw everybody.
04:33I threw Zane, I threw Hiromu, I threw David, I threw everybody.
04:36Yeah, well, everybody dies, right?
04:38Dang right.
04:39Dang right, everybody dies.
04:41I don't know where that came from.
04:42All right.
04:44Well, we are going to get started here.
04:46It is our final six-man taxi match of the evening.
04:49And, oh, big disrespect from the young lion.
04:55That's okay.
04:57They got that fighting spirit, man.
05:01Well, Shomakato wanted to outkick his coverage here.
05:04He's going to get Kano instead.
05:06It is six-man tag team action here as we are set on the evening to preview our main event in Shizuoka.
05:13And immediately, yeah, Hiromu immediately out of the corner, going to make his way in.
05:18Sneaky snake, you don't move.
05:21No.
05:22Good job.
05:22You might not be aware of this, Lance.
05:24Or Omo and Gato actually teamed with each other for Super Junior Tag League about a few months ago.
05:28They did?
05:29Yeah, they did.
05:29It was the first unaffiliated R-Dog combination that we saw after these two forces kind of joined together back in Rhiogoku in October.
05:38And it was admittedly one of the most entertaining parts of Super Junior Tag League.
05:44I mean, it's made everyone love Gato now.
05:45I mean, I didn't think that would happen anymore.
05:47Well, he's got a good beard.
05:48Well, there you go.
05:49Well, these three are definitely on the same page.
05:53Right about that.
05:54Hontai, unified force as always.
05:58And Shimakato follows in with that back elbow as well.
06:03It just crumbles.
06:04You know, I've got to ask you here, Lance.
06:07Ask the way.
06:08Shota Umino and Yuya Uemura, two men often we've long looked at in New Japan as ones who are going to take over Hontai in a singles round.
06:17But now they've come together as a tag team.
06:19A lot of people are questioning the moral side for Umino and Uemura.
06:23Why would you team alongside one another when you could just reach for the brass ring yourself one more time in the singles game?
06:29Well, here's the thing is, sometimes you've got to take advantage of the situations that are presented to you.
06:34And right now with the tag team, this is what it's presented to them.
06:37A lot of the top singles matches are already set for Wrestle Kingdom.
06:41You know, obviously, we've got Tsuji and Takeshi for the heavyweight title.
06:45You've got Tanahashi and Okada, you know, in a one last time match.
06:48You've got some of these big, big singles matches.
06:51So we're looking for that tag team match.
06:53And these guys are going to be the single stars, the main guys of New Japan Pro Wrestling.
06:58But for right now, here's an opportunity, an opportunity to come together and they've done really well.
07:03And if they can team well and they can find stardom as a tag team, eventually down the line, they'll learn themselves,
07:09they'll learn each other, and they will become those single stars.
07:11But maybe right now they become those tag team stars.
07:18They're fighting back a little bit there.
07:20Oh, great English.
07:22Yeah, that's another one in the swear jar here for Gato.
07:25It was a very full jar as Shota Umino now.
07:29Going to take things into the red corner.
07:30Tag made for Young Lion Shoma Kato.
07:33Shoma Kato.
07:34Motherfucker!
07:37More good English.
07:38Yeah, well.
07:39Cameras are picking it all up.
07:40Yeah, Kato's one of the few Young Lions who's going to understand Gato's perfect English.
07:44Oh, yeah?
07:44Yeah, Kato, a little bit of an English speaker himself.
07:47Good.
07:47Yeah.
07:49And Kato, there you go.
07:50Kick right into Gato here.
07:52And every single time Kato's gotten any offense in on Gato, Hiromu has come for the assist.
07:58Big suplex there from the Young Lion.
08:00Deeper in the line.
08:01Oh, right in the eyes.
08:04Right in the eyes.
08:06Old school but good school.
08:07Yeah, Gato classic right there as Shoma Kato going to take the shot in to the leader of the bullet club as well.
08:15David Finlay.
08:25Referee Kato Sato having to get in here and check now on Gato.
08:30Oh, he might have broke a tooth here, Lance.
08:31I don't know what's going on.
08:32It's a fight that happened.
08:33Why are they stopping it?
08:34Oh, wait a minute.
08:35Hiromu.
08:36Oh, I can't believe this.
08:38This is.
08:39It was all a distraction here, Lance.
08:41I don't.
08:41I think Gato's okay.
08:43Of course he's okay.
08:44Just give it up.
08:46Hiromu is losing that turnbuckle.
08:49And Kato.
08:50Kind of a Yano special right there.
08:52Yeah, eats it in the end here.
08:55And Gato going to make the tag out.
08:57Here comes the leader of the bullet club, David Finlay.
09:00Boom.
09:01Boom.
09:02Boom.
09:03AJ would be happy.
09:04Certainly so.
09:06As Finlay here.
09:08Big back body drop now on Shomagato.
09:17Got it while he wants it.
09:20Oh.
09:20Oh, come on.
09:21Who are you going to?
09:22Oh, wait.
09:23Oh, wow.
09:24Oh, oh, oh.
09:26L'Romu's going to, no.
09:28Oh.
09:29Oh, he tried.
09:30That was interesting.
09:30Every single time he tries and every single time he fails.
09:34This is looking pretty good for Finlay right now, though.
09:36He tried, though.
09:37He tried.
09:37You've got to give him A forever.
09:39Certainly so.
09:40Oh, just chunked it.
09:41Just tossing around Young Lions here.
09:43I like that.
09:44I like that.
09:45When it's not me, I like that.
09:47It's never usually me, though.
09:49Oh.
09:49Oh, come on.
09:51Here we go.
09:51Finlay lands Hiromu right on the console.
09:55He's going to take the cover for himself and broke it up here by Umano and Uwamora both.
10:01I think if it hadn't, that would have been in.
10:10And David Finlay here.
10:11Look at the power game.
10:13Going to want to put away this young lion.
10:15Not going to happen, though.
10:16Backslide down.
10:18Cover.
10:18Dominator.
10:19No.
10:19I thought he meant, I thought he meant.
10:21Going to take more than that.
10:23Dominator.
10:25And a pinfall here.
10:28David Finlay's done it.
10:30Finlay is surprisingly strong.
10:33David, no.
10:35Hey, we won.
10:45Yeah, we keep winning.
10:53It's all right.
10:53We're good.
10:54Yeah, I think David Finlay pointing out a trend here.
10:57Whenever Finlay really takes the lead in some of these team matches, well, the team of Finlay
11:02and Hiromu make up a few wins every now and again.
11:04But I don't think Hiromu's exactly satisfied with that.
11:07I mean, at least David said we win.
11:09Well, there you go.
11:10That's a start.
11:11Because he's kind of been saying I win.
11:12Right.
11:13And Hiromu lost.
11:14Well, that is the match that we will see in our main event tomorrow.
11:24Twin Messe Shizuoka live right here for night 10 of World Tag League 2025.
11:29New Japan Pro Wrestling brings you David Finlay and Hiromu Takahashi versus Shota Umino and
11:35Yuyahua Mora, both teams tied at four points on the board.
11:40Someone's four will be no more as one of these two teams advances to six tomorrow in World Tag League action.
11:48Monster Talk is going to get six tomorrow.
11:50Oh, I'm ready for it.
11:51Yeah.
11:52Yeah.
11:52He's going to get some brutal music.
11:57Come on.
11:58Come on.
11:59Man.
12:00Oh, I'm ready for it.
12:01Come on.
12:02Come on.
12:02Come on.
12:03Come on.
12:04Come on.
12:04I'm not sure if I'm dead.
12:07I'm not sure if I'm dead.
12:10I'm not sure if I'm dead.
12:13It's a good job.
12:16How many people do you know?
12:19How many people do you know?
12:22I'm just going to win a game.
12:25They're having to work.
12:28Victory here tonight for David Finlay, Horomo Takahashi, and Gato.
12:50It's going to look like they're on the same page, though.
12:52Yeah, certainly not, but they're going to have to hope something changes in the win.
12:55Coming up 24 hours from now in Shizuoka.
13:04I think if we had a third person here, we'd have to sit at a different table.
13:07Yeah, probably.
13:09I mean, could you imagine Oscar being in this booth or something?
13:13We should make that happen.
13:15Hopefully not.
13:18Start the German broadcast, baby.
13:20I mean, if Chris was there, he could fit.
13:24Oh, yeah.
13:25A little bit right between us, right?
13:27A little Sammich.
13:30A little Chris Sammich.
13:32Okay.
13:34All right.
13:34We are-
13:35I love you, though.
13:36Yeah, not a lot of it.
13:38Hey, we're moving right on in to Blockade Competition.
13:42We're having fun here tonight in IMSA Yamanachi.
13:46Coming up next, it is Bolt to No Leg and Toriano taking on House of Torture.
