00:00Et Ibushi. Oh, wait, what?
00:03What?
00:04Zack Sabre Jr. n'est pas book, Kevin.
00:06Non, mais c'est son musique.
00:08N'est-ce qu'il n'est pas, Taichi n'est pas encore là pour cette carte.
00:12Taichi a dit, après son match avec Tanahashi,
00:17qu'il s'agissait à la compagnie de la compagnie
00:20pour prendre le temps de prendre son corps à l'aider
00:23avant le World Tag League.
00:25Donc, je pense que Zack Sabre Jr. n'est-ce qu'il s'agissait à l'arrière
00:28de l'arrière.
00:31All in white, as well.
00:38He's not replacing you, is he?
00:40You can have an all-British commagnie desk for the T1.
00:43This would be awesome.
00:44I'll be back in the hotel.
00:46Wait.
00:49Well, what's on the mind of Zack Sabre Jr.?
01:01He's stretching you.
01:02What?
01:05What?
01:07What the?
01:10What is going on?
01:12Is this, is it 2017, Kevin?
01:14Zack Sabre Jr.
01:15is warming up in the ring
01:17and we're hearing
01:19the low IQ music
01:21of Katsuyo Shibata?
01:25What the?
01:26Is this a time walk?
01:28Have we fallen down a time slip?
01:31If I could go back
01:32and have one more Shibata match.
01:34Katsuyo Shibata's dressed to fight, Kevin.
01:36What the hell is going on?
01:38I have no idea
01:40but I love it.
01:41My pal, Joel Yentus
01:43has just
01:45spit his tea
01:46and wet his pants.
01:48What?
01:48This is a moment.
01:51What is this?
01:52What the heck is going on?
01:54I thought we were going to hear from Zack.
01:58What?
02:03You are kidding.
02:08This is a five-minute special exhibition
02:12UWF Rules match.
02:16Are you kidding?
02:18Are you kidding?
02:21Zack Sabre Jr.
02:29At the corner
02:31183cm
02:3295kg
02:37I have goosebumps
02:39all up and down my body.
02:41What in the world?
02:43How the hell
02:44did this get put together?
02:46My God.
02:48If you're at home
02:49if you're watching this
02:51if you've got friends
02:52that are still asleep
02:54give them a call
02:55right now
02:56and tell them
02:57that Katsuyo Shibata
02:59is about to wrestle
03:00Zack Sabre Jr.
03:01in 2021
03:02a five-minute exhibition
03:04here we go
03:05and Shibata is going to make
03:06every second count.
03:09Oh my God.
03:11All right.
03:12So explain to me
03:13what UWF Rules will mean.
03:15UWF Rules will mean
03:16a lot of different things
03:18to different promotions.
03:19In New Japan
03:20in the past
03:21it has meant
03:22no pinfall submission
03:24or a knockout.
03:26Ordinarily
03:27we would have a point system
03:28under UWF Rules
03:29but here
03:29a one-round system
03:30five minutes
03:37This is unreal Kevin Galley.
03:40I'll tell you what
03:41the boys in the LA Dojo
03:43are losing their minds
03:45right now as well
03:46with Shibata
03:46as their trainer.
03:48And just the idea
03:50of being able
03:50to see Shibata
03:51in any form of competition
03:52in a New Japan ring
03:54and you think
03:55this is
03:55Zack Sabre Jr.'s
03:57first steps
03:58in a New Japan ring
03:59were against
03:59Katsio and Shibata
04:00over the British Heavyweight Championship.
04:02And again
04:03with Shibata's
04:04you know what we say
04:06Shibata's active career
04:08is over.
04:09I think
04:10Shibata
04:11still needs convincing
04:13that such is the case
04:14and this is a scenario
04:16where maybe he was able
04:17to convince them
04:18okay I can do this
04:20just let me compete.
04:21Well Kevin
04:22it takes me back
04:24to 99'7
04:25when Satoru Sayama
04:27the original Tiger Mask
04:28came back to New Japan
04:30after really being
04:31exiled for 15 years
04:33and he had that
04:34exhibition match
04:35with Jushin Tandalaigo
04:36if you remember
04:37and then that turns
04:39into him wrestling
04:41Antonio Inoki
04:42in the Tokyo
04:42though.
04:43Well again
04:44this crowd
04:46is absolutely
04:47thrilled
04:48at just being able
04:50to see Katsio and Shibata
04:51to hear his music
04:52but to see him compete
04:54even in this
04:55five minute window
04:56as now he's tying
04:57the figure four in
04:58and you talk about
05:00UWF rules
05:01and we always think
05:01about New Japan Pro Wrestling
05:03versus UWF
05:04and Keiji Muto
05:06putting Nobuhiko Tsukadu
05:08into that figure four
05:09there are three minutes left
05:10on the time
05:11as Zack Sabre Jr.
05:13tries to prevent
05:14that leg being wise
05:15goes to the ankle
05:16second time
05:16we've seen a callback
05:17to that
05:19as earlier in the tournament
05:21we saw Kota Ibushi
05:22and the great Okan
05:24I mean it was
05:25such a dominant
05:27part of pro wrestling history
05:30you saw that very night
05:31Shuri tapping out
05:33her opponent
05:34and Kameyame
05:36in Osaka Jai Hori
05:37that night
05:39so Zack Sabre Jr.
05:41controlling
05:41Shibata with the head scissors
05:43now again
05:45while Shibata
05:47has not been
05:47an active competitor
05:48you obviously could see
05:50he is in
05:52tremendous shape
05:53he spends
05:54everyday training
05:56in Los Angeles
05:59as he has
06:01been tasked
06:02with developing
06:02the next generation
06:04of stars
06:04in the LA Dojo
06:05two minutes left
06:10this is
06:10one of those moments

06:44Marty Asami

06:47for this type of match
06:48with his extensive
06:49amateur background
06:51looking to take down
06:52there you go
06:53in a classic

06:56it was a British style
06:57surfboard
06:57was going to bury
06:58his foot into the back
06:59but instead went down
07:01and Shibata out
07:02at the other side
07:03you're right Kevin Kelly
07:04even though he's not active
07:05Shibata working

08:18what a moment
08:35Shibata wants more time
08:37don't we all
08:42I got a lump in my throat
08:44you tell a guy no
08:51a hundred different times

10:112017
10:13a king of pro wrestling
10:15when we heard that surprise
10:16and Shibata came down
10:17and he took that flat back
10:19and he said
10:20I'm alive
10:21and now four years later
10:23the reaffirmation
10:25and
10:27not just a five minute exhibition
10:30but the statement
