Background
Much like when Jaguar debuted in 2009 as a rising
supernova, Yoshihiro Shimoda made a splash on the scene when he arrived in
2002. Years after reaching their potential -- holding several top-line Jr.
Heavyweight titles, the two face off in the most anticipated tournament match
of the night. While good friends, both men forsake their feelings in the name
of the King of the Super Jr. Crown!
Match Progression
The
rabid Korakuen fans -- despite eight matches before this one -- were still full
of life. Both competitors were given a very split reaction, showing the strong
loyalty and following both men have developed with the fans over the years.
Leaving their friendship behind them, both competitors shook hands to a huge
round of applause as the gong sounded to begin the match.
After
circling one another, Shimoda asserted himself as the aggressor with an early
attempt at a shooting takedown -- but the lighter Jaguar was too quick. While
trading some paltry strikes, Shimoda would grab hold of Jaguar's arm before
applying a basic armwringer. Jaguar would quickly try to counter -- only to
find himself cut off by Shimoda jolting his arm, before rotating his body --
along with Jaguar's limb in a 180 degree motion. After sudden whip from Shimoda prompted Jaguar to
drop to a knee in painful compliance. With many of the fans slowly shouting
their support for the popular masked character, Jaguar suddenly came to life by
rolling forward to alleviate the pressure! On his back, Jaguar kipped up to his
feet before countering with an armwringer of his own -- sending Shimoda flipping forward onto the canvas!
Slightly
embarrassed, Shimoda jumped to his feet with some newfound determination. With
some audible hostility in his voice, Shimoda powered Jaguar into the ropes.
While Referee Kajiwara called for the break, Shimoda loaded up before throwing
a FIERY middle kick -- prompting Jaguar to roll to the outside for
the timely evade! As Jaguar took a walk, Shimoda took no pause before
sliding to the outside -- where he took Jaguar by surprise and whipped him into the steel security railing
-- causing flailing concern from many a female fan! While Jaguar arched his
back over the rail, Shimoda fired once more with a kick -- BLASTING Jaguar across the body! As Jaguar staggered forward,
Shimoda rolled him back to the ring. As Jaguar slowly sat up, Shimoda met him
with a HARD soccer kick across the
back -- sending an echoing thud throughout Korakuen Hall! While writhing in
pain, Jaguar climbed to his feet before Shimoda attempted an Irish Whip, before
finding himself whipped into the corner by a timely counter! As Jaguar followed
in however, Shimoda swiftly popped his knee up -- forcing Jaguar to run head-on
into it! Stunned, Jaguar found himself helpless to counter Shimoda's unique
guillotine across the ropes after rebounding from the corner, onto the apron.
Shimoda quickly tried to capitalize with a slingshot, or swan dive attack using
the ropes. However, Jaguar cut him off with a timely slap to the chest,
followed by an elbow to further stun him! This allowed the sensational third
generation masked star to land a graceful JUMPING
SAVATE KICK, knocking Shimoda to the Korakuen floor! While staggered,
Shimoda was seemingly helpless for Jaguar's bullet tope suicida -- ONLY TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!! With a
violent CRASH, Jaguar's body landed hard on the wooden floor -- just shy of
the steel railing! With the crowd in a tizzy, Shimoda was quick to roll Jaguar
in. As Jaguar stumbled to his feet, Shimoda connected with a swan dive MISSILE KICK -- SENDING JAGUAR'S BODY FLYING
ACROSS THE RING! Shimoda went for the first cover of the match, One... Two! ...KICKOUT!
After
pulling Jaguar up and sending him into the ropes, Shimoda charged with a back
elbow -- knocking Jaguar swiftly to the mat! There, he quickly found himself
trapped in a modified camel clutch -- with Shimoda driving his right knee into
Jaguar's back! Despite having most of his face obscured, the look of agony
could be seen on Jaguar's face... Surprisingly, Shimoda momentarily relented --
only to scoop Jaguar up and precariously trap him upside down in the corner!
While helpless, Jaguar endured a vicious combination of kicks -- prompting
Referee Kajiwara to jump in to prompt the rope break... Once again, Shimoda
went to submissions to wear Jaguar down after applying a legscissors around
Jaguar's neck. Shimoda jokingly tugged
at Jaguar's face, garnering some laughs -- and even a few boos from the crowd.
Ultimately, Shimoda would once again release the hold before going for the
cover... One! ...Two! Kick Out! Not
relenting, Shimoda pulled Jaguar up before trying to whip him into the corner.
However, Jaguar countered -- sending Shimoda into the corner instead. Deja vu
struck however, as Shimoda once again got his knee up as Jaguar followed in,
stunning the masked man. Looking to capitalize, Shimoda hopped onto the middle
rope - ONLY TO BE CUT OFF WITH HIGH-LEAPING DROPKICK, SENDING SHIMODA FALLING
FROM THE TOP ROPE TO THE HALL FLOOR!! Despite taking a nasty tumble,
Shimoda scrambled to his feet -- ONLY TO
BE MET WITH A TOP ROPE SWANDIVE PLANCHA FROM JAGUAR!! All 2,000+ fans
erupted in cheers for the sensational masked Jet Jaguar, who struck a heroic
pose to even louder fanfare!
After
rolling Shimoda back into the ring, Jaguar went for the cover -- One! ...Two! KICKOUT! After pulling
Shimoda up, Jaguar used a unique variation of the backbreaker from a backdrop
position. The move left Shimoda precariously positioned -- allowing Jaguar to
climb the ropes. Leaving everything to chance, Jaguar tried to finish Shimoda
with a Jet Jaguar trademark. Rotating his body in a 450 degree corkscrew,
Jaguar would MISS THE JAGUAR SPECIAL! After crashing to the mat, momentum
sent Jaguar staggering to his feet, where Shimoda easily grabbed and FOLDED HIM IN HALF WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX
HOLD! Referee Kajiwara made the count! ONE!
...TWO! ...THR-KICKOUT! With the fans ardently split between both competitors,
Shimoda pulled Jaguar up by his mask -- while showing no intention of letting
up. After releasing Jaguar's mask, Shimoda unleashed a POWERFUL savate kick to the body -- lifting Jaguar off the ground!
Stunned, Jaguar was defenseless against two swiping slaps -- followed by a SPINNING CHOP TO THE JAW! If that wasn't
enough, Shimoda finished the combination with a RIGHT-LEGGED HIGH KICK TO THE
HEAD! Leaving nothing but a stumbling zombie, Shimoda called for the "FINISH!"
Grabbing hold of Jaguar's arm before wringing it to set up the TRIANGLE LANCER! However, after throwing
his leg over Jaguar's head to set up the takedown -- JAGUAR SWEEPS THE LEG AND POPS SHIMODA INTO THE AIR BEFORE DRIVING HIM BACK TO THE MAT WITH A SIT-OUT
POWERBOMB!! With Shimoda's shoulders pinned to the mat, the official
made the count... ONE! ...TWO!
...KICKOUT! Due to the effects of Shimoda's combination moments before,
Jaguar was very slow to his feet. However, he mustered everything he had before
letting out a fitting ROAR to the
fans -- garnering a big reaction! After slowly pulling Shimoda to his feet,
Jaguar would aim to finish his senior with another Jet Jaguar trademark -- the Spiral Bomb! However, as Jaguar tried to
lift, Shimoda dropped his weight to block the attempt. Determined to see the
move through, Jaguar expelled more energy with another hoist -- only to see it
blocked yet again! This prompted Jaguar to momentarily let up -- before
throwing another savate kick to the
body, followed with an Axe Kick to
the back of the head! After softening his opponent up, Jaguar once again went
for the Spiral Bomb -- this time succeeding in lifting Shimoda up! After
carefully positioning Shimoda, Jaguar begun rotating both he and Shimoda... On
the third and final rotation however, SHIMODA
COUNTERED WITH A LIGHTNING QUICK HURRICARANA!! Referee Kajiwara made the
diving count! ONE! ...TWO! ...THREE!!

Comment
Yoshihiro
Shimoda: "Jaguar is crafty --
with him comes the knowledge of three generations of wrestlers. Some would say
the era of wrestlers like ATSUKA and I are passé... But tonight shows us OLD DOGS still have fight! My, what an
exciting tournament to be a part of!"
Jet
Jaguar: "A minor setback!
Shimoda-san is a sharpshooter when it comes to the ring. One mistake can cost
you. Sadly tonight, this is of that... I face Saigo next in Nagoya... It'll
certainly be a splendid battle, as always!"
