Background

---

The members of Hybrid Club ARMADA, with the help of visiting (R)EVOLUTION wrestler Simon Raines, look to get their fighting confidence back following their leader Kenji Tanamura's loss to T.A.P.'s Ryo Inoue. On the other side, KyouHonGan continue to be KyouHonGan, this time teaming up with the mercenary RYUJI...

Match Progression

---

The members of ARMADA fought with determination throughout the match, while KHG did what they did best - fight dirty. The match started out with Sakai and Star, in which a collar-and-elbow tie-up ended with a thumb in the eye from Star on Sakai. Sakai, remembering his training, kept his cool but planted a closed-fist punch right in the face of Star! Star tagged in RYUJI, who didn't seem to have much better luck against the ARMADA stalwart. Sakai caught RYUJI in a jujigatame, but RYUJI was able to use a rope-break to regain composure and tag in Kyoto Okazaki.

Okazaki immediately caught Sakai with a surprise Colt Python, before a head crushing DDT for a two-count! Okazaki then pointed directly at Yuichi Miwa, challenging him. Okazaki let Sakai go, and Sakai tagged in Miwa. Miwa went right for Okazaki, catching "The Worst One" with a series of strikes that caught the heel by surprise, before a GREAT German Suplex hold for another near fall! Okazaki decided to tag in Kazuki Sendo, as Miwa tagged in Raines! Raines was eager to show everyone what he was made of, but Sendo blindsided him with a buzzsaw kick to the head! Raines looked a little woozy, but managed to tag out to Kitajima in order to recover. Kitajima and Sendo had at it, and Sendo nearly caught Kitajima with a submission via his 322 Clutch, but Miwa made a save, bringing out Okazaki again! Okazaki attempted a kick to the groin of Miwa to set up an Otokogoroshi, but Miwa managed to block the kick with a feeding kick, turned into a kneebar!!

In the chaos, Kitajima tagged in Raines, who hit a flash Phuket running bicycle knee to the face of Kazuki Sendo, sending the KHG member crashing down! The referee recognized Raines as the legal man, as he covered... ONE, TWO, THREEEEE!!! Post-match, the KHG members wanted to make big noise against ARMADA, but with Okazaki barely able to walk at that point, they retreated to the exits as ARMADA celebrated with their (R)EVOLUTION ally...

Backstage Comment

Yuichi Miwa: "It was a tricky match up, but technique overcomes everything."

---Is there any update regarding your leader, Kenji Tanamura?

Yuichi Miwa: "Tanamura-sensei is still recovering from his injuries... The fight with Inoue pushed him beyond his limits... But sensei has never quit! He'll make a full recovery and rejoin us in this war. In the meantime, it's up to us to push back against Inoue and T.A.P.!"

Okazaki: "I have no opinions about this match. Sendo-kun lost -- Not me! My mind is focused on my match tomorrow against the kid from San Diego... The other one."

Biography: Before entering pro-wrestling, Sendo was a star baseball player on the college level. However, an untimely rotator cuff injury forced Sendo to miss his final year at Osaka University. After properly healing, Sendo entered the Kazuma Fujita Dojo in a big coup for the gym, before debuting in February of 2008. Sendo would endure the trials most rookies do, but never gave. Sendo had the opportunity to stand out as one of the few juniors upon KJPW's inception in 2013. However, Sendo struggled with the new influx of talent, showing cracks in his beaming personality for the first time. Sendo began teasing a heel turn towards the end of 2013, before pulling the trigger in 2014. Since then, Sendo has continued to discover his "rudo" ways during KJPW's downtime on the independent scene, and formed a team with senpai and former FURY star S☆S Star. Together, the two proved to be a rather unpopular, but successful heel tandem. The two enter KJPW as allies for fellow rudos KyouHonGan, serving as provisionary members.
