00:26Well, despite many of the odds, despite many of the betting standards, and maybe even in spite of themselves,

00:34GameKid and Yota Tsuji have clutched the second place position in block A for this year's World Tag League.

00:45For wrestling fans, I have to tell you, I was there live in the building in Hiroshima.

00:49You can feel the tension in the air.

00:51You can see it watching live on NJPW World.

00:53GameKid and Yota Tsuji are working a lot less like a well-oiled machine and more like, well, two pieces of tough fabric.

01:03Brickshick between Kid and Tsuji still forcing themselves into the second place spot for block A this year.

01:23There was once a point in time where GameKid would wait at the entryway for the Global Heavyweight Champion, Yota Tsuji.

01:31Well, that day has passed us by quickly.

01:33All the pressure, all of the weight of the world.

01:43New Japan Pro Wrestling and beyond, sits on the shoulders of the Gene Blast.

01:49Yota Tsuji, your IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion and number one contender to the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.

01:57But before we get to the Tokyo Dome, we have to walk our way through Kumamoto, and the world will be looking to sprint that direction.

02:16Especially knowing which two teams could find themselves in final contention.

02:23Yug Grace.

02:52Well, it is the newest member of what has been a tough official, the Goto Revolutionary Army.

03:11You could consider the Goto Revolutionary Army, maybe sort of a subset of Monsai,

03:17and let it be known first and foremost, though, wrestling fans,

03:19Tatsuya Matsumoto is not jumping the gun or skipping the line by any measure,

03:24but he has certainly taken the, well, words of Yoshihashi and Hiroki Goto in good faith,

03:30and these two men have seen all the potential in the world in this young lion,

03:35but even more potential on the side of Vichorado heading into World Tag League 2025 semifinals.

03:41Vichorado, 180cm, 102kg, Yoshihashi!

03:47180cm, 103kg, Goto Hiroki!

03:59Vendee, Sakamoto Yuya.

04:01As it stands here tonight, Hiroki Goto and Yoshihashi walk into the semifinal

04:15for World Tag League 2025, your top team within A block, your A1 of sorts.

04:23A1 will take on it, B2 will be crowned here tonight on this evening, live in Inzika City.

04:31In our semifinal position, meanwhile, Gabe Kidd and Yodosuji in the A2 position right now.

04:36It will be A2 versus the top of B block, also to be determined here on the evening.

04:41The math is going to get convoluted, we're about to get crazy with the numbers,

04:44but before we get there, we could very well be looking at a preview to your supposed final

04:49coming up on December 14th in Kumamoto, that Grand Messe is going to be packed to the brim

04:54for what is going to be the World Tag League 2025 final.

04:58If I may say so myself, it has been my third World Tag League tournament to be a part of

05:02here in New Japan Pro Wrestling from the broadcast position.

05:05And the in-ring action, the quality of such, has not been this high in the past three years

05:10up until this point.

05:12Gabe Kidd and Yodosuji, though, can't seem to bond, can't seem to unify on that fact,

05:17and rather, oh, are going to have to try and find themselves on the same point.

05:26I mean, it has truly been the great mediator in this year's tournament that's been Gato.

05:30Gabe Kidd and Yodosuji have not been in conversation with one another.

05:34It's been Gato that has been going back and forth at one point.

05:38Gabe Kidd and Yodosuji were sharing a locker room.

05:40I have that on good authority, the War Dogs and the Unaffiliant.

05:42Now, Gabe Kidd getting changed somewhere else in the arena just to avoid sharing a locker

05:47room with Yodosuji and the Unaffiliant.

05:49And I think that says a lot about what Gabe Kidd's mindset is right now.

05:54And that is a mindset that is often hard to predict, as it is Yodosuji now taking off

06:01the apron.

06:02Gabe Kidd as well.

06:03Young Lion.

06:04Tatsu Matsumoto is born to the ring.

06:06It is Gato who is on the wrong end for the Beats of the Revolution.

06:24As meanwhile, it is Yodosuji and Gabe Kidd who find themselves in an advantageous position

06:29one more time.

06:30And Hiroki Goto, I mean, I remember it very, very clearly, the battles that Gabe Kidd and

06:35Hiroki Goto have had from singles matches turned into no DQ matches on the same night.

06:41This very well could be a final situation that we are looking at.

06:44This very well could be a final situation that we are looking at.

06:52As Yodosuji now snapped Maren, you have to wonder, wrestling fans, what goes through the

06:56mind of Yodosuji?

06:57I mean, in post-match comments, we have not heard a lot from Yodosuji on the way of

07:01Kanalsuke Takeshita and the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, Global Heavyweight Championship

07:07double title action that is set to come your way in the Tokyo Dome.

07:11Cover here for Tsuji and a two-count only.

07:13And you have to wonder, fans, how much of that is intentional and how much of that is

07:17just, well, keeping your eyes on the current prize in front of you.

07:20Knowing that World Tag League finals are to come a lot sooner than the Tokyo Dome are.

07:25Ah, Yodosuji, whether Kidd wanted it or not, is going to force that tap.

07:31Ah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

07:40Nice.

07:41Nice.

07:42Yes.

07:42He's concaving shots from Gabe Kidd.

07:46Certainly going to cut a little bit different compared to the knife-ed shots you could expect

07:50soon enough from Yoshihashi.

07:51But that was if Gabe Kidd did not just put the match away.

07:55A two-count only is going to keep things rolling here tonight.

08:03Certainly not in an enviable position whatsoever is Gato.

08:08Playing the go-between, playing the mediator.

08:10But, I mean, as much of a smooth talker Gato has been in his career,

08:14as much of a manager of champions Gato has been in his career,

08:18from Jay White to Kazuchika Okada to David Finlay,

08:21you have to know for a fact that Gade Kidd is not a man

08:24who can easily get inside the mind of.

08:26And trust me, I've tried, Gato has tried, much deeper on a capacity

08:30than any of us will ever be able to experience.

08:33And Kidd, still not yet convinced.

08:36Yoda, Suji, and him can see eye to eye.

08:38Suji going to extend the hand here.

08:40And Kidd, no, going to keep going at this action all on his own.

08:47And if that is not indicative of what the plan may be

08:51going into the semifinal night for Kidd's zone venture,

08:54I'm just not too certain.

08:57Gato now, back suplex for the cover.

09:00And still a two-cow only.

09:11Gade Kidd trying to keep things at bay right now.

09:13Does not want to go up onto the shoulders of his opposition and Gato.

09:16Yeah, but we'll take Goto up and over a suplex here.

09:22And it's Gade Kidd.

09:23Here's the man that Kidd's going to trust.

09:26Gato makes his tag into the ring.

09:28Get the fuck out of here, kid!

09:30Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

09:38Oh, Gato poke right to the eyes on Goto.

09:41And off the ropes now, a blasting shoulder tackle.

09:47And meanwhile, young lion Tatsu Matsumoto

09:50looking to prove himself further within the Goto Revolutionary Army.

09:55Tag made.

09:56All right, here we go for Natsumoto.

10:05No way, motherfucker!

10:07Oh, shit!

10:12Oh, and Gato poke right to the eyes of Tatsu Matsumoto.

10:30Here comes Yoda Tsuji.

10:32And it is Tsuji far and away a favorite to potentially win this year's World Tag League.

10:37But that was at the point when Tsuji and Kidd were in each other's corner for good.

10:42And Kidd not even in Tsuji's corner at all right now.

10:44Matsumoto trying to do what he can to bust off the global heavyweight champion.

10:48And it is Tsuji.

10:50No, no, no.

10:51Cradle inside.

10:52Cover, cover, two.

10:57And watch Tsuji now.

10:59Popped up.

11:00It's a long way down.

11:04Matsumoto here.

11:05It would easily be the biggest win a young lion has had in a long, long time.

11:10Matsumoto for the victory.

11:12Still not going to be enough.

11:18Hiroki Goto proud of what he's cultivated.

11:21Proud of what the no-key dojo has produced him inside of this ring right now.

11:25But pride is going to have to be a lot greater than the result here.

11:29Matsumoto.

11:30No, no, no.

11:32Tsuji sends Tatsuya for a ride.

11:49Oh, wait a minute.

11:50Wait a minute.

11:51Tatsuya Matsumoto, that knee bar locked in currently.

11:53Tsuji trying to torture the knee of Matsumoto, and it's still, it's still to the bottom rope.

11:59Yoda Tsuji is going to survive it, but I think Tsuji thought he was going to be able to put Matsumoto down a long, long time ago.

12:06No, and Tsuji.

12:18Tsuji.

12:20Knee right to the jaw of Tatsuya Matsumoto.

12:25And Tsuji again, again, again.

12:28Planted out.

12:29It's over here.

12:47Well, victory comes the way of Game 10 on Yonasuji and Geno.

13:10And while that might be a small blip in the armor of the Gotoh Revolutionary Army, Gotoh

13:17and Yoshihashi know that it is not going to be Game 10 on Yonasuji.

13:22They face off against tomorrow in the semifinal.

13:26A1 takes on B2 and B2 is set to be crowned.

13:30Just moments away, we are kicking off with the final bit of action for Block B in World

13:36Tag League 2025.

13:40And we are set to do so in a major, major capacity.

13:44Hiroshi Tanahashi and El Phantasmal on four points take on House of Torture, Rendarita

13:51and Sonata.

13:52Will Tana and El P play spoiler to the house?

13:55You're going to have to stay tuned right now on NJBW World to find out.
