>> Match Report

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: With a background in amateur wrestling and track-and-field events, Okazaki joined Kazuma Fujita FURY dojo in early 2001 with aspirations of joining Japan's top organization, Burning Spirit Pro-Wrestling. Okazaki showed exceptional coordination with natural charisma, making him a shoe-in for BSPW's ranks. However, the 2002 formation of a promotion based around Fujita's graduations saw his future take a different direction as Okazaki quietly made his debut on an August 14, 2002 independent card promoted by Fujita himself in what would be the foundation for Pro-Wrestling FURY, which was founded later that year. Okazaki stood out among the fresh faces thanks to his overflowing charisma. While a strong supporting player, Okazaki would not win his first championship until 2005 after dethroning ATSUKA for FURY's Jr. Heavyweight crown. 2007 saw a turning point for his career after turning heel. Now "The Outlaw," Okazaki rose to new heights after developing his new "Otokogoroshi" finishing move, leading him to his second reign as FURY's Jr. Heavyweight Champion. Okazaki would remain a central figure in their ranks until the company finally closed in late 2012. Through friendships formed in FURY, Okazaki would wrestle across various independent promotions with the former members of FURY including ATSUKA and Yoshihiro Shimoda. While many of his contemporaries would sign would KJPW in 2013, Okazaki instead chose to travel the world, wrestling in Europe, the United States, and most prominently in Mexico, where he formed a strong friendship with fellow traveling Japanese wrestlers Wataru Yamada and Keisuke Rongai. After the three won gold in early 2015, the trio returned to Japan to announce their invasion of KJPW! KyouHonGan were born.
