00:32C'est parti !
01:00C'est parti pour Bolton et Oleg dans ce tournoi.
01:02Il y a eu l'impression que c'est à February de cette année,
01:03le Never Openweight title on the line.
01:05Il y a eu l'impression que Bolton et Oleg n'a pas de chance.
01:07Il y a eu l'impression que Bolton et Oleg !
01:11Maintenant, un 1-1 record qui vient à un match de match,
01:14ici dans le premier stage de Osaka.
01:17Osaka-Joho est en train de se débrouiller avec Never Action.
01:57Sous-titrage MFP.
02:00Well, you know, historically the Never Openweight Championship,
02:05a very, very difficult title to win,
02:08and even harder title to keep or hold on.
02:12Thanks to our pal Chris Zamsa, sportaprowrestling.com,
02:1542.86% of all Never Openweight Championship matches
02:21have ended with a title change.
02:23But the one person that has changed that picture
02:25is Konoske Tsukeshta.
02:27The Alpha won that championship,
02:30generally the fourth in the Toko-Dome,
02:32has defended it a record six times.
02:35That same number six,
02:37the number of successful defenses for Iroki Goto
02:40for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.
02:43And I think at this point,
02:45you can talk about different styles,
02:47different powers, different times.
02:50Konosuke Tsukeshta, yes,
02:51is the best in the Never Openweight division,
02:54but I think you can make a very, very solid argument
02:56that he is the finest professional wrestler
02:59living in the world today.
03:04On the thứ 2, the victorious champion of Mount Sinai,
03:10and you have the champion of the founding of the NERA.
03:11The winner of the NERA is the number of the division
03:12Konosuke TAKESHITA!
03:32Le champion Konosuke Takishita, le champion de champion Konosuke Takishita, le champion de champion Bilt.
03:45One fall 60 minute time limit. Fans are pouring in all over social media about the reaction to the G1
03:51Climax 35 announcements.
03:52A lot of names that a lot of people might have expected to see that are not in this year's
03:57announcement.
03:58Well, that speaks to the competitive nature of the G1 Climax. There's only 20 that can get in.
04:03And of course, we have yet to know who will be a part of those play-in matches.
04:07We'll have those announcements as well as an extra announcement as to the tournament structured tomorrow.
04:12Stay tuned to NJPW1972.com.
04:15And it speaks to the caliber of talent that you're not only getting in that tournament, but in this match
04:19here tonight.
04:19This is a match that blew up.
04:22Heading on Arena Osaka when we were there back for a new beginning in February.
04:27And Takishita and Bolton Oleg ready to knock the block off of one another.
04:30Yeah, this is dude's rock pro wrestling. No doubt about it.
04:36Bolton Oleg earlier on today citing the great Russian late great amateur wrestler Mmeza Saitiev saying that strength resonates only
04:46in overcoming oneself.
04:48Has beaten Takishita before. Can he do so tonight?
04:51Well, not without Akiyama Nee.
04:54You know, so much of Bolton Oleg's short, and I mean short career thus far.
04:58A little over two years, if you can believe it.
05:00Bolton Oleg's been active from his first day as a young lion to here tonight in 2025.
05:06Look out, look out, look out, look out.
05:07Takishita, holy hell.
05:12Takishita in front of his home crowd, pulling out all the stops here in Osaka, undefeated in this town since
05:192020.
05:20Oh, look at this.
05:22Yeah, no intention of being put away by Bolton Oleg.
05:27Only six men, Walker, have said that they've been able to beat Takishita in the last 365 days.
05:34Yodosuji twice, Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Hiroki Goto, David Finley, and yes, Bolton Oleg.
05:45There's a lot of experience differential you can talk about between these two men.
05:49But nobody more determined to wave the New Japan Pro Wrestling home flag than Bolton Oleg.
05:54Whoa.
05:56Whoa.
05:56Just dumping Oleg over the top rope.
05:59Can you imagine just the insane feat of strength that he took to lift a man like
06:05Bolton Oleg over the top rope like that?
06:08Come on.
06:09And the agility to hop over onto the middle rope.
06:12Takeshita high on the senton, crashing down.
06:15Here's a cover on Oleg.
06:17And looking for V7, am I correct?
06:20Takeshita, seventh defense on the line tonight.
06:22Absolutely correct.
06:27Eight changes to that never gold here in Osaka.
06:30Takeshita not looking to be number nine.
06:33Those defenses for Konosuke Takeshita truly coming everywhere.
06:37Here in Japan, over abroad in Mexico, in the United States.
06:42And really, you know what I mean, he's invigorated the openweight nature of the Never Openweight Championship.
06:48Two junior heavyweights, Kushida and TJP at the time, who was junior heavyweight, competing for that Never Openweight Championship.
06:56He doesn't care, Takeshita just loves to fight, he loves competition.
07:01And that's exactly what he's got here tonight, in the form of Bolton Oleg.
07:08Oleg, wait, he got caught.
07:11Could it be over here, could it be over this early?
07:15As Oleg, my God.
07:18Man, verdict right over the top rope.
07:23And the verdict, Walker, might be TKO, Konosuke Takeshita, Marty Asami hopping out to get an ask in, and to
07:33see if Takeshita is still Corpus Ventus here.
07:38That has bought Bolton Oleg a lot of valuable time, I mean seconds, and I mean seconds matter, when you
07:44are stepping in the ring with a man like Konosuke Takeshita.
07:47Yeah, when you're with Bolton and you're right, inexperienced, certainly a factor, he's got to have explosivity, high impact, look
07:55for a knockout.
07:56That's what got him that win during the G1, really shocked Takeshita on the back foot, that verdict, and the
08:03kamikaze.
08:05Well, I mean, someone might be making an impact here on the entrance ramp, I don't like where they're going
08:09more better.
08:10Not at all, not at all.
08:13We talked about seconds earlier on, and we're thankful about Rocky Romero not in the building or in the country
08:18here tonight.
08:19In favor of Konosuke Takeshita and the Don Callis family.
08:22Good regions.
08:27We talked about knockout, and that might be the knockout blow right there.
08:31Yeah, any normal human being that would be, but Bolton trying to shake it off, where's Takeshita going?
08:43Oh, where's Takeshita going?
08:46Going right through, Bolton Oleg, and neither man will fall.
08:54Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute, Bolton.
08:56That might be.
08:56No, Oleg, Oleg, catalog on the top here, Chris.
09:02No, the shake, the rattle, and the roll for Takeshita all the way down the entrance ramp.
09:22A big man from Kazakhstan.
09:27Looking to make a momentous rise, just two years through his debut to perhaps be a Never-Operweight Champion.
09:34One, two, three.
09:37Referee Marty Asami has given a leash as long as Asami possibly can, as now.
09:42Well, we don't want this to be a counter.
09:43Remember last year here at Dominion, Hinari and Shingo Takagi went to a double KO for the Never-Operweight Championship.
09:50We don't want that to happen.
09:5411, 12, 13, 14.
10:00And Takeshita could use as much of that time as he wanted, but
10:03he's gonna bring it back in at the count of 15.
10:05And Bolton Oleg quick on the attack.
10:08Bolton, Bob out of the corner.
10:09Here's the cover for Oleg, and it's just two.
10:13Bolton all the way through.
10:14The best of the Super Genius went back to his roots, went back to Kazakhstan.
10:18Straight to those amateur wrestling schools where he grew up.
10:22Yeah, come on!
10:26Yeah, come on!
10:27So Kester, no off days at all.
10:29Traps the arm.
10:31And Lampton.
10:34Absolutely Lampton.
10:41And a blue thunder bomb for Konosuke Takeshita.
10:45Kick out immediate, immediate into the Boston crowd.
10:51That's Bolton Oleg.
10:52That's something Bolton could not have prepared for out of the arsenal of Takeshita tonight.
10:57He wasn't expecting that Nogue Dojo fundamental out of Takeshita.
11:02He's been in this hole before.
11:04Not from a young line, not from someone like Takeshita rather.
11:14This Never Division has been so integral to the career of Bolton Oleg.
11:17The growth of Bolton Oleg is the bottom rope adhered to by the challenger here tonight.
11:24The whole reason Bolton Oleg skipped excursion is because of the Never Division.
11:28Winning the Never Openweight six-man tag titles alongside Toru Yano and Hiroshi
11:32Tanahashi has led to the flourishing of Oleg's career as we've seen it.
11:39Oh, well, no more flourishing if he...
11:42Oh, what if that's against the line and got it.
11:45Bolton made his feet.
11:47I thought he might be able to duck, was not able to miss to avoid the collision.
11:58Here we go, Walker.
12:00And, oh, it's a big ask for anyone to try and muscle up a man the size.
12:05The power and the strength of Bolton Oleg.
12:08Both men looking for leverage, Oleg wins out.
12:11No, couldn't get him all the way over, back tweaked on him.
12:16Takeshita, Sherman suplex.
12:18Right on the bridge, nose touching the canvas, wrote the thesis and delivered a masterclass.
12:26One, two, three, four, four, four, four, five, one, four and four.
12:56Come on, Oleg!
13:05C'est parti, c'est parti.
13:26Oleg looking for something big here, and it has to be, it has to be to put down
13:31Konosuke Takeshita, one of the best in the world, Oleg.
13:35Man.
13:40And a cover here.
13:53And he's got him up again.
13:55Yeah, Oleg really- And the back hold out though.
13:57One of that kamikaze extends Takeshita, Takeshita.
14:03Doing what he can to try and wear down the big man from Kazakhstan.
14:07Yeah, I think Bolton is getting gassed Walker.
14:10I think that endurance is starting to be a factor.
14:13And now Takeshita is choking, trying to get that blood choking.
14:17Bolton looking at the people for support.
14:36Come on, Oleg, come on, Oleg.
14:40Come on, Oleg.
14:42They collapse in on one another.
14:46That Takeshita in a bad way right now, Chris.
14:49Danger, danger.
14:52Kamikaze.
14:53Kamikaze, can he cover him?
14:54And he can, the cover here for Oleg.
14:56Nearly a new never champion.
15:07Well, that was the best shot that Bolton has delivered to Takeshita Walker.
15:12Go, go, go, go.
15:34A third one.
15:36Solid contact.
15:37Oh, now that is solid.
15:38We'll have it for every three it only takes one.
15:41From Kanosuke to Takeshita.
15:46No!
15:47It's like a big one for Bolton.
15:49Quaker on the draw is the Never Challenger tonight.
15:55Bolton on the right.
15:58Underneath.
15:59No, no, no.
16:00Meeting in the middle here.
16:01Tekeshta.
16:03Lariont Kampurole.
16:04Cover, stack it, stack it.
16:06He's got it.
16:06No.
16:09Great cover for Bolton.
16:12Tekeshta had to give everything he had just to kick out.
16:16And now he's gotta find his feet.
16:22Et maintenant, Bolton n'a pas de mettre ça, il n'a pas de mettre ça.
16:26Non, non, non, c'est un catch.
16:31Il est à l'arrivée de la base, il est à l'arrivée de la base,
16:34il est à l'arrivée de la base.
16:38Il est à l'arrivée.
16:42Il est, le cassez-monster, il est à l'arrivée de la foule.
16:49.
16:50.
16:55.
17:05Out of nowhere, Takeshita back up.
17:07Still up, still up and in it, Takeshita wanted the power drive instead.
17:12Oleg out of mid air, cut on the shoulder.
17:15.
17:17One more time, new champion, we gotta have it here.
17:22.
17:23.
17:24New Never Openweight Champion.

18:32Mais Bolton est toujours comme le nouveau champion de Neva-Opa-Weight.
18:54Oh, et on a très bien regardé ça.
19:06Le champion de la Néva Asobetsu FNJ est le premier champion de Valchis Ollek.
