Neo Japan Pro Wrestling - Denkoo Puroresu - 2/7/99 PART 2


Genichiro Matsumura: Moving right along here, we're going to take a look at newcomer Gundam X as 
he takes on the dubious Mr. Wrestling IV.

Takao Fugawra: I have some old tapes from Georgia Championship Wrestling, is he..

Genichiro Matsumura: Please. Don't ask.

/_/|_/\___/_/   |__/|__/_________________________________________/

Seiji Oyuki: Ring Announcer: This match is scheduled for one fall and has a 30 minute time 
limit..  First up, from parts unknown, weighing in at 117 kilograms.. Mr. Wrestling IV!

[crowd seems disinterested]

Seiji Oyuki: And his opponet, hailing from Tokyo, Japan, weighing in at 97 kilograms.. this is
GUNDAM X!!

[Gundam X walks out to 'Theme from Mobile Suit Gundam', the crowd, mostly young children, are 
obviously excited to see an anime character come to life. Lasers erupt behind him and fog comes 
out of the walk way.  He climbs to the top rope, firing his cannon into the air, which erupts 
into streamers that shoot in the crowd.  He jumps down and removes his armored pieces of his 
costume and begins to stretch, finally posing and pointing to his opponent, then throwing his 
hands into air and calling on the crowd for support.]

{ding ding ding}

Genichiro Matsumura: Mr. Wrestling IV charging at Gundam X but the speedster quickly upends IV 
and sends off the top rope with a HOTSHOT! Now a JUMPING NECKBREAKER DROP and Mr. Wrestling IV. 
seeing stars!

Takao Fugawra: Is this mask vs. mask?

Genichiro Matsumura: NO! 
Gundam X now applying a COBRA SLEEPER.. and now he rolls that over and JUJIGATAMEs the right arm 
of Mr. Wrestling IV. Might have an early submission here! But IV is able to squirm his right leg 
to the bottom rope to force the break..

Takao Fugawra: How old do you think this Mr. Wrestling IV is? He looks like he's sixty.

Genichiro Matsumura: Couldn't tell you..
Mr. Wrestling IV now with a thumb to the windpipe, what a cheapshot, now a closed fist right to 
the face! But Gundam X fires right back and knocks him on his duff with a SHOTAY PALM STRIKE! 

Takao Fugawra: Oh man, he went Ike Turner style on him!

Genichiro Matsumura: Hoists up the bigger man.. BRAINBUSTER! Immediately follows that up by 
applying the ROMERO SPECIAL! Referee Kentero Honda asking for the submission, but IV is hanging 
in there.. Gundam X releasing the hold now after about a minute, scoops him up and plants him 
with a TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER.. this could be it.. one.. two... no kickout! 

Takao Fugawra: I think I know where I know Mr. Wrestling IV from now..

Genichiro Matsumura: Really? Where?

Takao Fugawra: He's Furly from the american sitcom 'Three's Company'!!

Genichiro Matsumura: Mr. Wrestling IV now struggles to his feet, whips Gundam X to the ropes,
aims a LARIAT but Gundam X counters with La Majistral and the crowd is loving it..

One..


Two..


NO.. shoulder up

[fans seem pumped as camera pans through the upper level bleacher seating]

Genichiro Matsumura: Mr. Wrestling IV now to his feet, aims GERMAN SUPLEX, but Gundam X reverses 
it with a go-behind.. REVERSE DDT!! Now he applies the COBRA SLEEPER!!

Takao Fugawra: Goodnight Irene!

Genichiro Matsumura: Gundam X really has the hold cinched in tight, now he drops him into a 
REVERSE BUSTER!!

ONE..




TWO...




THREE!!!

{ding ding ding}

Seiji Oyuki: In a time of 4:19.. your winner.. Gundam X!!

Genichiro Matsumura: Gundam X in a very impressive debut, making short work of the woeful Mr. 
Wrestling IV.. We're about ready for our next match, so let's get back to the ring..

Seiji Oyuki: Ring Announcer: This next contest is scheduled for one fall and has  a 30 minute 
time limit.. making his way down the aisle, from Naoyo, Japan, weighing in at 105 kilograms, 
please welcome.. Benji Nishiki!

[mild pop]

Genichiro Matsumura: Benji Nishiki runs at top speed to the squared circle.. looking enthusiastic
for his Neo Japan Puroresu debut..

Seiji Oyuki:..and his opponent.. hailing from Yokohama, Japan, weighing in at 98 kilograms.. 
this is "Tiger Brat" Kojiro Kamiya!

["Right Now" by Fence Of Defense murmurs from the arena system. Scattered catcalls, chirping and 
derision greet Kamiya as he rudely stomps his way to the ring..]

{ding ding ding}

Genichiro Matsumura: And they lock up, CHOP to the solar plexus by Tiger Brat, hard whip to the 
ropes DROPKICK, nicely executed.. Picks up Benji Nishiki now...SWINGING NECKBREAKER.. owie!

Takao Fugawra: That's called twisting off the lid of some gibronee brand beverage!! HA HA!!

Genichiro Matsumura: [shakes his head] Follows that up with a KNEEDROP right to the cranium.. 
Kamiya scoops him up now.. RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX!! 

Takao Fugawra: Dropped him right on his thick head!

Genichiro Matsumura: Nishiki at a severe disadvantage in the early going here.. but  he's able to
deliver a stiff FOREARM blow which knocks Kojiro Kamiya off-balance.. now takes him down with a 
LARIAT,  but NO, Kamiya-san able to counter with a CROSS ARM BREAKER DDT.. now he quickly scales 
the top turnbuckle.. MOONSAULT.. cover.. one.. two.. no, he kicked out..

Takao Fugawra: He's taking this chump to school.. Lumps 101!!

Genichiro Matsumura: "Tiger Brat" Kojiro Kamiya now, peels Nishiki off the mat.. RAYDEEN BOMB!! 
Darn, that's got to hurt.. applies a double chickenwing armbar.. TIGER SUPLEX

One...


Two...



Three!!


Referee Yoshi Nagomi says 'no', he apparently got his shoulder up..

Takao Fugawra: What does HE know, he's like 97 years old.. in fact, that ref is so old that there
wasn't even History back when he was in school..

Genichiro Matsumura: The last time I heard that one, I fell off my dinosaur laughing.. KNEECAP 
DROPKICK by Kamiya, and Nishiki fell down hard, clutching his right leg.. LOOKS LIKE HE'S 
GOING IN FOR THE KILL..  TIGER KNEEBAR!! And Nishiki is writhing in agony.. he's tappiing out,
he's tapping out!!

Seiji Oyuki: In a time of 3:57, your winner "Tiger Brat" Kojiro Kamiya!!

Genichiro Matsumura: What a couple of nights it's been.. at the risk of sounding immodest, we can 
safely say that in one weekend, Neo Japan Puroresu has established itself as a serious player in the marketplace..

Takao Fugawra: Leave the immodesty part to me.. as the great philosopher Joekwan once said..
'FUGAWRA FOR PRIME MINISTER!!'

Genichiro Matsumura: Someone please help me..

Seiji Oyuki: Our next and final match of the evening, is scheduled for one fall, with a 30 
minute time limit.. here are the participants.. first up, hailing out of Tokyo, Japan, weighing 
in at 125 kilograms.. Yakumo Matsumoto!!

[face pop]

Seiji Oyuki: "And his opponent.."

["The Iron Man" by Cho Ishikawa blares from the arena system as "Ice Cold" Hiroyoshi Tenzaki 
deliberately stalks to the ring. His ring garb consists of black full-length tights, and black 
boots as well. Tenzaki wears sunglasses and a black leather/vinyl trenchcoat. His back has
the characters that translate into "Ice Cold" tattooed upon him. His face is a visage of cold 
determination] 

"hailing from Sapporo, weighing in at 115 kilograms.. this is "Ice Cold" HIROYOSHI TENZAKI!!"

[a din of humming and foot-stomping permeates the arena with the fans' anticipation]

Genichiro Matsumura: What an intimidating presence to have to look across the ring at..

Takao Fugawra: yeah, but you're scared of a lot of things..

Genichiro Matsumura: They lock up, whip to the ropes by Matsumoto, Tenzaki ducks under the 
attmepted ELBOW and comes off the far-end ropes with a HIGH KNEE that knocks Yakumo Matsumoto 
down.. Pulls him up by the hair.. vicious CHOP to the throat..

Takao Fugawra: That's ALL legal..

Genichiro Matsumura: What!? Matsumoto struggles to his feet, but "Ice Cold" is all over him, 
delivers a brutal LARIAT which just about takes Yakumo's head off!

Takao Fugawra: Now THAT I would pay to see..

Genichiro Matsumura: Hiroyoshi Tenzaki now... BACKDROP DRIVER that put Matsumoto's head THROUGH 
the mat! Oh man, this guy is just brutal.. Cover... one.... two... no, shoulder up.. Tenzaki now, 
has him lined up... RUNNING HIGH KICK! And Yakumo Matsumoto is in dire straits here..

Takao Fugawra: Quality band..

Genichiro Matsumura: Things aren't looking too bright for Matsumoto here.. whip to the ropes by 
Tenzaki.. REVERSE FULL-NELSON, that looks like it hurts... SLAMM!! brings him down with authority. 
COLD SNAP DRAGON DDT.. 

Takao Fugawra: [chuckling]

Genichiro Matsumura: What are you laughing at? [apparently angry with Fugawra]

Takao Fugawra: The beating that is being issued here.. this is great! Don't be mad at me..

Genichiro Matsumura: You, my FRIEND, are a sick individual..

Takao Fugawra: You see that? We're still friends!

Genichiro Matsumura: Right.. 
Tenzaki now, with another hard whip to the ropes.. DROP TOE HOLD!

Takao Fugawra: Looks like it's time for a'stretchin'!

Genichiro Matsumura: Hiroyoshi Tenzaki has the STEP OVER TOEHOLD KATAHADJIME locked in.. Yakumo 
Matsumoto valiantly trying to fight his way to the ropes... He's had enough, that's it, the 
referee calling for the bell..

{ding ding ding}

Ring Announcer: In a time of 4:20, your winner... "Ice Cold" HIROYOSHI TENZAKI!!

Genichiro Matsumura: And he's not releasing the hold.. what kind of crap is this..

Takao Fugrawra: No, let him go, this is a fantastic display of sportsmanship..

Genichiro Matsumura: Referee Kentero Honda is futile in his attempt here, he's only maybe 5'6.. 
Well, here comes our 'house muscle' Yazuo Tomizawa. We don't like having to pull our 'trump card'
like this, especially not on our debut, but Tomizawa now stepping in the ring, grabs hold of his 
arm and pulls the possessed Tenzaki off of the hapless Yakumo Matsumoto, and "Ice Cold" may 
really have injured this poor guy.. Tenzaki now, snaps up, gets eye-to-eye with Tomizawa.. Oh boy
we don't need this.. 

Takao Fugawra: Look at Tenzaki.. he's just LAUGHING in the face of Yazuo Tomizawa!!

Genichiro Matsumura: We're out of time here in Osaka.. thanks a million for tuning in and we'll 
catch you in one fortnight!

[the screen fades as Hiroyoshi Tenzaki, evil grin etched on his face, lays one final stiff kick to the fallen Matsumoto and climbs out of
the ring]

[Fade]
