00:01The first match is a 6-person tag team match. It will be a single fall match with a 15-minute time limit.
00:30Mohamed Yone and Kazuyuki Fujita bring overwhelming veteran strength into this match,
00:36creating a rare alliance of heavyweight power and experience.
00:40Alongside them, Daiki Odashima, one of Noah's fastest rising junior heavyweights,
00:45looking to prove he belongs in the ring with elite company.
00:49Yep, the one that hit him, who's actually wrestling Fujita and went to a draw,
00:53a 60-second draw with a great man's result.
00:57There's the young man himself.
01:00Mohamed Yone, the Afro man alongside the beast, the Yaju, Kazuyuki Fujita and
01:10Daiki Odashima.
01:11This team mixes force, stability and youth in a dangerous combination, in my opinion.
01:17Yeah, completely. And they've formed an alliance, haven't they?
01:19Fujita and Yone, they've said that they're going to team up in our up-and
01:23-coming
01:23NEO Global Tag League that's going to kick off May 23rd in Kyoto.
01:27That's right, they shook on it. So, you're going to see a little preview of their work here
01:32now.
01:33But right now, the White Raven squad about to step into Biogoku,
01:37needing to regain momentum and reassert their vision for Noah after recent struggles against Team 2000X.
01:45Yeah, this is the biggest state for this stable so far, White Raven squad.
01:50We now know they'll be topping the bill, they'll be headlining when Shane Hayes challenges
01:55Yoshiki Inomura in our main event, and they're also kicking off the main card here.
01:59Heyata and Tetsuya Endo out first, and here is the man himself, the black son, K
02:05enta, drives the philosophy of this White Raven squad.
02:09Endo sharpens the edge, and Hayata delivers the precision.
02:14Yeah, completely well-oiled through business, Hayata, completed the junior heavyweight division.
02:22The silent of darkness, he's a whisper in the shadows, Hayata.
02:30Endo Tetsuya.
02:32The elegant avenger, Tetsuya Endo.
02:36Black Sun, Kenta.
02:42Former two-time GHC heavyweight champion, the black son, Kenta.
02:47Sporting some fresh paint as well, Kenta, the leader of this group.
02:52The White Raven squad together, they fight with discipline, seriousness, and absolute confidence in their direction.
02:58So this is about restoring control before instability starts to creep in for them.
03:04Yeah, 100%.
03:05All eyes, I think, are going to be on Kenta and Fujita.
03:08They had that violent affair last year in their N1 victory.
03:11Oh, yeah.
03:15You've got the veteran power mixed with rising talent in the blue corner there,
03:20and then the disciplined modern NOR visionaries in the red corner.
03:26Kenta already head-to-head with Daiki Odashima.
03:29I think Kenta maybe sees a little bit of his younger self in Daiki.
03:33Completely right, look at this.
03:34There we go.
03:36A sheer disrespect.
03:37You love to see it from young Daiki Odashima.
03:39Oh, look.
03:39He slapped this now.
03:41Oh, that is nasty.
03:42Side headlock.
03:43Yeah.
03:43He is really struggling with the power and strength of Kenta right now.
03:47This has been the way that Kenta's former teammate,
03:50now I'm reaching Matthew, has been winning a lot of matches recently with his side headlock.
03:57Oh, wow.
03:59Reversed it.
04:01Oh, through the second rope there.
04:04There's an arm drag.
04:07He's using his speed now to his advantage, flying, running forearm to the face of Kenta there.
04:12Yeah, he's going to push the pace, isn't he?
04:14The former QAQ junior heavyweight tag team champion.
04:18And then, Odashima here to show and prove that he belongs at this level.
04:22Yeah, this is his stage.
04:25This is his stage.
04:28Fesvillier dragged into the red corner tags in Hayata,
04:32only too happy to pick up where Kenta left off.
04:36Scoops up, Odashima slams him down.
04:48In the middle, Hayata's got a hold of him.
04:52Looking to stretch out there, Daiki now.
04:54Yep, he's got that leg right and he's managed to move round into the necklock,
05:00peels him off there just as well because that could be turned into a twister.
05:03Yep.
05:04Oh, look at this.
05:05What a counter.
05:06Endless waltz now.
05:07Endless waltz here.
05:08Hayata is going for a ride.
05:10Daiki Odashima speeding things up.
05:12Kenta for Taro Suzuki.
05:13Yep.
05:15Wow.
05:15There's no stopping this young man.
05:22He is taking it around Ryogoku here today.
05:29Couldn't keep him for three there, but that was some great pressure.
05:32It looks like he's made himself dizzy, let alone Hayata.
05:34The longest endless waltz that was, isn't it?
05:37From Daiki.
05:37It's the longest one I remember in Noah.
05:39He's a bit shaky on his feet there.
05:40He's on roller skates.
05:42He's not seeing double, that is just Kazuyuki Fujita there,
05:45the size of the man.
05:47An absolute monster.
05:48Hiyaju is in now.
05:50Kazuyuki Fujita, the beast himself, scoops Hayata up, slams him down.
05:55He's going to go plural on these, and he can go all day with these, believe it.
06:01Hayata getting absolutely blasted in the middle of the ring there,
06:04brings in Mohamed Yoni.
06:06That's how you can expect their tag teamwork to play out coming up.
06:10Yeah, they're going to be very dangerous in that tag league.
06:12The first team to officially declare their participation as well.
06:18Mohamed Yoni, he is such a great heavyweight tag team partner,
06:23for pretty much anyone on the roster.
06:24Yeah, such a dependable teammate as well, isn't he?
06:27Combined with Kazuyuki Fujita, that's a scary partnership.
06:31Yeah, don't let that smile and beautifully crafted Afro fool you.
06:35He is a brute, and he can hit as hard as they come.
06:38Enzigeri from Hayata stumbles.
06:42Mohamed Yoni, unless that was a little dance he was doing,
06:45Because he is good at that.
06:47He's good at that.
06:47Tezio Ando underneath, oh.
06:50Do you want to get out?
06:58Into the corner goes Ando, gets the boot up onto the apron on the other side,
07:02over the top rope, watch out now.
07:04Tezio Ando with the springboard flying forearm.
07:08Picture perfect from the former TDT man.
07:13Oh, wow!
07:16How perfect was that, Mark?
07:18So smooth was it from Ando.
07:20So athletic, so powerful.
07:25Complete wrestler, Tezio Ando.
07:32They had him for a second there, but he took a headbutt.
07:35Ando, now remove the rope.
07:37Leg Lari from Yoni.
07:41Sorry, single leg dropkick that was.
07:43Brings in the Yaju back in, he's barely broken a sweat yet,
07:47but he has downed one of his Genki drinks,
07:50and there's at least 50 grams of caffeine in that,
07:52along with certain other substances.
07:55Yeah.
07:56Anything is possible now from Fujita.
07:58What a history in this venue back in 2004.
08:01He beat Penske Sasaki to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
08:04for the second time.
08:07Oh, Fujita's the only attack now.
08:10Vicious suplex.
08:12Endo got blasted there.
08:14Bumps off his fists.
08:16Oh, you're not entertained.
08:17He's just getting started.
08:20He's just getting started.
08:20Brings in young Daiki there.
08:22Daiki, of course, trained under Kazuyuki Fujita when he was at Nihon University.
08:28Five minutes in here, look at this.
08:30Into the gut wrench.
08:33Would you believe it, taking a tilt of the gut wrench suplex on Tetsuya Endo.
08:39Big shot from Daiki.
08:40Yeah, big elbow, taking a run at Endo here now.
08:43Gets out of the way into the corner, Hayata teaming up with Endo,
08:46But Odashima is one step ahead.
08:48Outsmarted by the youngster.
08:50Kick to the midsection.
08:51Straight into Hayata.
08:53Reverse atomic drop.
08:54Endo got him up.
08:55He's getting double teamed here.
08:56He gets the atomic drop straight into Hayata.
08:59Onto the shoulders of Endo now.
09:00This is looking silver.
09:02Over the knee with the backbreaker.
09:05Odashima is in trouble here.
09:07Fujita and Mohamed, you're only taken out by Endo off the apron.
09:11Yes, it's all about Raven squad now, isn't it?
09:13And they've just brought Kenta in as well, the leader of the faction.
09:18Kenta and Endo attempting to dictate the rhythm strategically.
09:22Hayata's surprise attack.
09:24You have to wonder how will they be in the tag league,
09:28which members will participate.
09:30Well, today they need to fight to regain momentum.
09:33That's for sure.
09:33Team 2000X, I think nine times they've faced,
09:37and Team 2000X have five wins over their four.
09:40Oh, what a shot that was from Kenta.
09:44Took the wind out of his sails completely, hoops up the leg.
09:47The Black Sun looking for the three here.
09:49No.
09:49Odashima has got some fighting in left yet.
09:51Plenty of spirit from this young man.
09:59He's in the back here now.
10:05Dangerous game on the back because Odashima is so good when it goes down to the ground.
10:09It doesn't matter how tall you are, that's taken out of the equation.
10:13Exactly, in a transition from Odashima.
10:20Trying to get that neck crank there.
10:22The strength of Kenta saved him along with his White Raven squad members coming in.
10:31An unlikely but dangerous alliance in Yone, Fujita and Odashima.
10:37Yep.
10:40Great shot there from Daiki.
10:47Big exchanges now between Kenta and Odashima.
10:52Chops and forearms.
10:53That one stumbled him.
10:54There's a bigger one to the jaw.
10:56Odashima right back in his face.
10:58That was like a spinning chop.
11:00That was fantastic.
11:02The strength of this man.
11:04Lifts Kenta up.
11:05Oh, attack from the back by Hayata.
11:08Never saw it come in, Daiki Odashima.
11:11Springboard there but caught in mid-air with the functify.
11:15It's been outfoxed there.
11:16It's Tetsuya Endo.
11:18Yone and Fujita now having spring.
11:20Lands it on both of them perfectly.
11:23The precision.
11:27Oh, the lead German suplex.
11:30Land it head first, Endo.
11:33Kenta.
11:34Odashima got his back.
11:38Kenta now feels that he's going to get out of there.
11:40He's got a fight in this young man but.
11:43Onto the suffocation.
11:44Hip toss.
11:47Onto the shoulders now.
11:49Kenta is looking for his.
11:50G-T-S lands it.
11:53This could be it now.
11:54One, two, three counts.
11:57That's it.
11:59The Black Sun does it.
12:01The White Raven squad restore order.
12:04Regain their footing in emphatic fashion.
12:07Kenta's vision stays alive and dangerous inside the Noah ring.
12:12Sends Daiki Odashima to sleep.
12:14The leader of the White Raven squad sets the example here.
12:18Kenta the standing bearer for this faction.
12:28Odashima's still a step behind White Raven squad and Kenta.
12:32But you can see the look in Kenta's eyes there.
12:34He's like I've got a fight on my hands with this young man coming through the ranks as
12:37He rises up.
12:38Exactly right.
12:39He knows he was in a tussle there.
12:41He was pushed more than perhaps expected by young Daiki Odishima.
12:45Take a look at this replay here.
12:46Kenta caught him on the way in up onto the shoulders.
12:49Then they go to sleep to the temple.
12:53Hooked up the leg.
12:55And it was a one, two, three for the White Raven squad and the Black Sun.
12:59Yep.
13:00Out of the camp.
13:01Emphatic finish by Kenta.
13:04Very excited to see Kazuuki Fujita and Yore teaming up.
13:07Going forward though Mark.
13:09Yeah.
13:09One of the lights that's going to be.
13:10Bring on the tag league.
13:14Kenta with a victory.
13:15White Raven Scale.
13:17Raining supreme here today at Ryogoku.
13:21Thank you.
