01:30Well, all things considered, just last night in Kifu, things did not go as planned for United Empire
01:38's Francesco Akira and Jacob Austin Young.
01:58It is the rift that has been going from the top down from the heavyweight division with men
02:02like Calum Newman and Will Ospreay to the junior heavyweight division. The division we've seen
02:07between Jacob Austin Young and Francesco Akira.
02:11We saw these two men eliminated from Super Junior Tag League just 24 hours ago in Kifu.
02:29Franchesco Akira, maybe a couple of smiles tonight here in Kyoto. Certainly a big difference from
02:36the last time we saw Akira here in Kyoto. Best of the Super Junior this year.
02:41J.A.Y. Jacob Austin Young.
02:46That's Jacob Austin Young while who will say he has nothing to smile about.
02:50The man who took a fall to the each of the sweet points just yesterday.
02:52Franchesco Akira.
03:09Of course the opportunity remains alive for Francesco Akira and Jacob Austin Young to take this tournament into
03:15overdrive and walk away at the very least with a winning record even if they have no opportunity of
03:20making it to the finals.
03:20Mathematically eliminated are Francesco Akira and Jacob Austin Young two and two four points on the
03:27Board for United Empire.
03:35Big opportunity here tonight for Francesco Akira first time ever against big shotty Lee Johnson.
03:42Of course it's Akira a couple of months spent over and only wrestling in the United States team
03:47and alongside his good pal Will Ospreay and I think that
03:50Franchesco Akira has made it very clear where he draws his line in the sand where
03:55Francesco Akira feels to be on the side between Will Ospreay and the man that Os
04:01preay came in alongside coming up November 3rd in Hiroshima that being Callum Newman and it
04:05is Francesco Akira who is going to look to utilize all the advantages that he might have gained
04:10having that experience competing over and all elite wrestling for the duration that he had.
04:16Familiarizing himself with the American style of competition.Facing off against top competitors men like
04:25Lee Johnson and Blake Christian to be included in that AEW bunch.
04:30As we talk about AEW standouts of course we'll be seeing Nick Wayne later on tonight in
04:35in-ring competition our main event of the evening it is a can't miss fight.
04:39Robbie X and Taiji Ishimori will take on TimeSplitters V2 Nick Wayne
04:43and Shida and if X and Ishimori win our main event they are officially finalists and
04:49back to back here from Super Junior Tag League Francesco Akira knows what that feels like as he
04:53rolls through for the cover down on Lee Johnson and a big drop kick there.
04:56Going to do a lot of damage to big shooting.
05:02Four points on the board for United Empire while Blake Christian and Lee Johnson had a very opposite stroke
05:08of luck against House of Torture just last night in Gifu.
05:11Christian and Johnson put their sixth point up against House of Torture's Dick Togo and Sho and
05:17that is going to take Dick Togo and show course out of the running.
05:19Seeing those men later on as that is Christian and Johnson working like a well oiled machine here
05:25and from the outside in here comes Vanilla Baby.
05:28Big shot there from Blake Christian and frequent tags being made between the swirl.
05:37You gotta wonder what's going through the mind of young lion Yushin Hatazawa of course
05:40competing in what is yet another multi-man tag team matchup.
05:44He has not had any of these underneath his belt and teaming against another alongside two dynamic performers,
05:50Outsiders from the New Japan Spectrum are Blake Christian and Lee Johnson.
05:54I wonder if Yushin Hatazawa has learned a thing or two in the brief appearances he
05:59's had alongside the swirl.
06:02Yes,Christian taking the opportunity to the lower base and a big drop over the bottom rope.
06:07Going to take the advantage here is Blake Christian though to hold on just a little bit longer into
06:12That referee count.
06:16Top three matches of the evening tonight wrestling fans it is the final league night of block A in this
06:22year's Super Junior Tag League.
06:23It's the final opportunity for Masatoriyasada to finally get a pinfall of his own
06:28onto the board and end strong with four points for himself and the IWGP Junior Tag Team
06:34Champion.
06:34It will be Misako and Masatoriyasada taking on Sumi Go Go with Ryus
06:38uke Teguchi and Kazuma Sumi later on in the night.
06:41As it is Francesco Akira intermediate.
06:44Crown of fire, feeling the pressure on that left leg.
06:50Whether it be Yasada and Misako taking on Sumi Go Go or how about our semi
06:54-manifed of the evening cannot wait to see Master Watto and Kukai
06:58finally managed to vanquish Yoshinoba Kanemaru and Doki as House of Torture
07:02continue their opportunity in the lead up to this year's Junior Tag.
07:06Here we go Akira out of midair.
07:08Victory roll shot down and right through the center.
07:13Thread the needle right there did Francesco Akira and Blake Christian feeling the pressure right on the
07:18midsection.
07:23Tag on one side and it's going to be with gritted teeth that Francesco Akira
07:27ever tags out to Jacob Austin Young.
07:30But you want to be able to finish out strong the way that Akira has in many a Super
07:34Before the Junior Tag League.
07:36I know that Akira and Jacob Austin Young are looking to do something major.
07:40Get to that six point mark and be the ultimate spoilers for Blake Christian and Lee Johnson coming up tomorrow
07:46in Okayama action.
07:51Meanwhile Zane J has not exactly been on the Francesco Akira side of things recently.
07:56It's been Zane J and Jacob Austin Young who have really gotten on better over the course of
08:00this tournament than Jacob Austin Young and his own Parker and Akira had.
08:04Man Zane J just makes that look easy.Here's the cover for J on Christian.
08:09Two count again.
08:11Big boy huh?Big boy that's your man huh?
08:14And Zane J is the man who is going to pride himself on his power game.The man who
08:19managed to lift Hartley Jackson just a few nights ago right above his head.
08:23And Zane J is going to look to do the same thing to a junior heavyweight in Blake
08:27Christian.
08:28Right before of course he makes the tag though and that tag comes back to Jacob Austin Young.
08:35A lot of great opportunities coming the way of United Empire.Of course we know November 3rd power struggle.
08:40Will Ospreay and Calum Newman are going to have a power struggle of their own with the
08:44IWGP tag team titles on the line against the knockout brothers.
08:47It is Lee Johnson whereas who has made this tag earlier on and is going to try and take the
08:52Advantage. Bam!
08:54Drop kick right there on Zane J and holds on tight to J A Y as well.D
08:59rop kick on Jacob Austin Young.
09:02Five minutes passed and 20 minute time limit to go.Here we go Blake Christian.Oh right through the
09:08bottom.
09:10And Christian and Johnson the speed the agility that these men bring to ringside and the power game of
09:16Lee Johnson chiseled out of stone.
09:18And a man that you are not going to want to underestimate.Especially sitting at the top of Lock
09:23B killed amongst Benny.
09:24At this point in the league.Big cutter right there from Big Shotty.
09:30Two count here for Lee Johnson.Not going to be enough to score the win over Jacob Austin Young.
09:39Yeah! Yeah!
09:42Lee Johnson trained underneath the great AR Fox of Ring of Honor and all elite wrestling fame.
09:47Wonderful QT Marshall as well.Lee Johnson ooh not going to be able to hit there but
09:54swings out the neck breaker does Jacob Austin Young.
09:59Winplash effect on that neck and Lee Johnson really feeling it at this point in time.
10:04That chain around Johnson's neck feeling a little bit tighter right now as here's the tag on both
10:09sides.
10:09Young Lion Yushin Hadazawa and former No Gay Dojo prospect Zane J betrayed everything
10:16That the No Gay Dojo does.
10:17It was meant to represent just to join up with the United Empire.
10:22And say that as you will Zane J has been paying dividends for Callum Newman and that investment
10:27that we saw back in February.
10:30Love what we're seeing right now out of Zane J.Great power.
10:35And oh Yushin Hadazawa right out of the way and follows in with a back elbow.
10:40A lot of future power potential on the ex sumo fighter that is Yushin Hadazawa.
10:46Wrestled a sumo style back in his high school days as meanwhile Zane J with a
10:52Z-Bomber is going to land.
10:54Oh broken up there harsh for Blake Christian and Lee Johnson.
11:02Okay we need to fly on them okay.
11:04Come on, go on them.
11:05What the fuck are you?Come on come on come on.
11:07Yeah well you hear this Francesco Akira was trying to.
11:10Oh, hold on a minute.
11:11Oh Akira trying to call a couple of plays here and those are not plays that are going to
11:16be followed easily.
11:17The Swirlobo working in tandem and man what a shot down on United Empire.
11:25I mean truth be told fans Francesco Akira and Jacob Austin Young have not been able to be
11:29on the same page since the very start of this tournament back in Kumagaya.
11:36Oh look at Zane J getting in the mind of Yushin Hadazawa and Hadaz
11:41awa.
11:42No keyboard and drop kick into the senton.
11:45Here's the cover.
11:48No, just a tee count there.
11:53Great opportunity here for Young Lion Hadazawa if Hadazawa is going to be able to find
11:58any victory in this tournament over the course of this matchup.
12:02It very well could come over Zane J.
12:04Meanwhile Zane J will try to pick up a victory over a Young Lion and Hadaz
12:09awa stick it right back to the no gay dojo which he once came from.
12:15That's Hadazawa now.
12:17Power game from Hadazawa going to be turned out here by J and sculpted by the Gods.
12:23Take a look at the power.
12:26Heave ho for Zane J that fall away slam.
12:30Heave ho for Zane J says it's not going to be enough there.
12:39J certainly invoking his own vanity here and wants a little bit more time in the spotlight.
12:45Zane J is going to take a lot of pride in this.
12:48Talk about sticking it to the no-game dojo.
12:50He's stuck Yushin Hadazawa in that Boston Crab here.
12:57This might be a big mistake for Zane J.
12:59Yushin Hadazawa got to be able to power through it but he can't.
13:03He can't.
13:04The tap is in and Yushin Hadazawa is out of here.
13:25There's a crazed look in the eye of Zane J that I would not want to be
13:29on the other side of anytime soon.
13:32Oh yeah that's real respect right there.
13:36Zane J is not the type of man to be referring to his roots in the dojo or
13:41the NJPW Academy in Carson California.
13:45I'm sure Zane J and many others are going to be keeping a tight eye on our main
13:49The event is coming soon.
13:50Featuring one of Zane J's former trainers Kushida.
13:53It will be Kushida and Nick Wayne.
13:55TimeSplitters version 2.
13:57Ticking on the Bound Company's team Robbie X and Taiji Ishimori are a main
14:01event to come.
14:03That very well could determine one half of your finals for Super Junior Tag League.
14:12Meanwhile United Empire getting a victory out this evening.
14:17Maybe one step forward toward the cohesion these men have been seeking all tournament long.
14:28JAY and Francesco Akira got to find themselves on the same side of the playing field before
14:34All is said and done here.
14:43Wrestling fans that is your opening match of the evening.
14:46Coming up next we preview more Super Junior Tag League to come in.
14:49It is Kyle Kayaba unbound company vs House of torture here.
14:53D
