00:08:18et c'est le focus pour les fans de l'avenir.
00:08:21Est-ce que c'est une philosophie pour les fans de Ryogoku ?
00:08:25Ça impacte notre main event ?
00:08:26Je ne pense pas que ça impacte le main event
00:08:28en tant qu'ils vont en wrestling.
00:08:29Je pense que ça impacte le main event
00:08:32en tant qu'on hear aujourd'hui.
00:08:34Zag, je l'ai demandé la semaine dernière,
00:08:36il était très wry et il m'a dit,
00:08:38« Si quelqu'un cheers evil over ma opponent
00:08:41et qu'elle cheers l'opposition over moi,
00:08:43je vais avoir quelque chose à penser.
00:08:48Je pense que quand il est en clout,
00:08:51les fans de Ryogoku vont backer Zag Sabre Jr.
00:08:54over Konosuke Tekesha.
00:08:56Et je pense que ça va à dire,
00:09:00Tekesha,
00:09:01ses position à un triple contracté athlete
00:09:03est va affecter sa drive.
00:09:06Et je sais que Tekesha a été open
00:09:09et dit qu'il ne sera pas la dernière fois
00:09:11qu'il se joue en la blue ring de l'année.
00:09:14Win, lose, or draw.
00:09:15Mais il ne sera pas à faire les towns
00:09:17que Zag Sabre Jr.
00:09:19Je pense qu'il y a un peu plus,
00:09:20expand on that controversy for me.
00:09:23A lot of people have been talking about
00:09:25Tekesha wasn't on the Destruction Tour,
00:09:26Tekesha didn't want to be on the road
00:09:28to King of Pro Wrestling.
00:09:29And I don't think it's as much
00:09:30he doesn't want to be,
00:09:31it's that he's contracted other places.
00:09:33He has dates in AEW,
00:09:34he has to wrestle in DDT,
00:09:36he's taking on the world of Pro Wrestling,
00:09:38not just in JPW,
00:09:39that's the scope he looks at.
00:09:40And yes, and he's doing so as an individual.
00:09:43He says, you know,
00:09:44if I'm in AEW,
00:09:46I'm not AEW's Tekesha.
00:09:47If I'm in New Japan,
00:09:48I'm not New Japan's Tekesha.
00:09:50I'm just Konosuke Tekesha.
00:09:51And that's admirable.
00:09:52But I think, you know what I mean,
00:09:53Zack Sabre Jr.,
00:09:54in the meantime,
00:09:55has been someone that's been very clearly
00:09:57New Japan Pro Wrestling's
00:09:59World Heavyweight Champion,
00:10:00and done so on a global scale.
00:10:01He's wrestled in 13 countries this year,
00:10:04and done it as our champion.
00:10:07And I think the fans recognize that.
00:10:10It's something that fans of New Japan
00:10:12can collectively say,
00:10:13hey, cover here, one.
00:10:16Collectively say,
00:10:16hey, I think it's admirable
00:10:17that Tekesha wants to take on the world.
00:10:19But what we want as an IWGP
00:10:21World Heavyweight Champion
00:10:22is someone who's present.
00:10:23Can you comment on that?
00:10:24Yeah, I mean,
00:10:26it's a fair comment.
00:10:27It's a fair comment to make,
00:10:29and I know it's been something
00:10:30that, say, Schottelumenau
00:10:31has been very salty about.
00:10:33He was saying backstage,
00:10:33hey, who won the G1 again?
00:10:35You know what I mean?
00:10:37I think there is certainly that argument.
00:10:40But at the same time,
00:10:41ultimately, this is competition,
00:10:43and this is combat.
00:10:44You know, if you have an issue with it,
00:10:46well, you should have won
00:10:47that goddamn G1.
00:10:48Right.
00:10:48And it's an argument, Chris,
00:10:50that Sabre Jr.
00:10:51has been looking to forego as well.
00:10:52Yeah.
00:10:53He shut that down in the media
00:10:54very quickly.
00:10:54He said, well...
00:10:55Oh, a barren hour there.
00:10:57Yeah, cover a quick kick out at one,
00:10:59and we're back to the standstill.
00:11:00Sabre Jr. saying, well,
00:11:02I'm fighting the world,
00:11:03representing New Japan Pro Wrestling.
00:11:05Takeshita's fighting the world,
00:11:07representing Pro Wrestling as a whole,
00:11:08and there's nothing wrong with that.
00:11:10But it's all about who prevails on top.
00:11:12Sabre Jr. has full confidence
00:11:14that he's going to prevail tonight.
00:11:15Yeah, sure.
00:11:16I think both men do.
00:11:17Absolutely champion and challenger,
00:11:18both men do,
00:11:19and otherwise they wouldn't be here,
00:11:21and they wouldn't have the right to be here,
00:11:22and they wouldn't have earned that right to be here.
00:11:24You know what I mean?
00:11:25Ultimately, Mike Rake's right in this business.
00:11:27You have to be the strongest,
00:11:28and what happens then is,
00:11:30not only do you have the gold,
00:11:31but with the gold comes the power, right?
00:11:33And the power to, you know,
00:11:35in the words of somebody else,
00:11:37a former IWGP Heavyweight Champion in their own right,
00:11:39to change the world going forward,
00:11:41to change the face of professional wrestling.
00:11:43something that Zack Sabre Jr. has done in his own way
00:11:46as World Heavyweight Champion,
00:11:47and something that Takeshita seeks to do.
00:11:51Whether it's change Japan, change the world,
00:11:54or anything in between,
00:11:55Takeshita line right out of the gate.
00:11:57This is your G1 Climax 35 winner for a reason.
00:12:02Sabre Jr. knows what it's like to be in those shoes,
00:12:04to be the challenger, a G1 Climax winner.
00:12:09You have to fight for the most coveted prize in professional wrestling.
00:12:13But Takeshita also recognizes,
00:12:15and wants to represent those IWGP letters,
00:12:18but doesn't want to limit himself to that.
00:12:19No, and I think, well, that's the argument both sides.
00:12:22Fable connects. Beautiful.
00:12:25Yeah, I mean, I think that's the argument on both sides.
00:12:27If you are the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion,
00:12:30you're the best professional wrestler in the world, bar none.
00:12:33And we want to be able to say that,
00:12:35yes, we have the best wrestler in the world,
00:12:37but you can see the best wrestler in the world
00:12:39every single night on these dates, in these towns,
00:12:42across Japan.
00:12:43You know what I mean?
00:12:44I think that's the drive for us as promoters and as a company.
00:12:49As a take to the ropes here.
00:12:52Not somewhere that Zack Sabre Jr. typically likes to go.
00:12:55Considers it as showing a crack in the armor,
00:12:57a sign of weakness, but taken right in nonetheless.
00:13:00Takeshita wanting to take a technical approach in the interim here.
00:13:04Gonna combine it with power, and that's gonna work to Takeshita's favor.
00:13:08And what he's doing just as he came back, and I think that was a surprise.
00:13:11He went to the ropes without body scissors,
00:13:13and Zack was a little bit of a tweak on those muscles and that rib area.
00:13:20That has long, long, long, long for years been an issue for Zack Sabre Jr.
00:13:25Those intercostal muscles never truly healing just like this.
00:13:29Sabre Jr. takes full control.
00:13:31A large, large athlete is Takeshita.
00:13:33Sabre Jr. is gonna bend every limb to his own benefit.
00:13:38I mean, you look at the way, Chris, Sabre Jr. became world champion for a second time in his career.
00:13:44Ended what was said to be a legendary run from a legendary wrestler in Hiroki Gotoh.
00:13:48Now Sabre Jr. wants to kill a legend before it even really begins in the alpha, Takeshita.
00:13:53Yeah, said as much in that, you know, video that we saw.
00:13:57You know, we think about what we did just to get here.
00:14:00That G1 Climax, both G1 Climax matches, they share a knockout over the other.
00:14:08Crossgate Takeshita confessing he doesn't remember much of the semifinal
00:14:13after he was lit up with an overhand right.
00:14:15Same match, Zack Sabre Jr. was dropped right on top of his head.
00:14:19Takeshita was choked out in his hometown of Osaka.
00:14:21That's still something lingering.
00:14:23A one-in-one singles record.
00:14:26All singles matches taking place within the past few months or so in last G1 Climax.
00:14:32And Takeshita, that means it is a recent feeling.
00:14:36Sabre Jr. as well, that uppercut's gonna take Takeshita down to the canvas.
00:14:41Do you feel there's any added pressure on the side?
00:14:45And I hate to talk about it with Rocky Romero president at ringside.
00:14:47The Don Callis family, there's an upcoming AEW World Tag Team title match
00:14:51where Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada have to team alongside one another.
00:14:55You think Takeshita wants to walk in world champion.
00:14:57Yeah, maybe at some point, you know, if I want to do a little bit of a sabreism right comment
00:15:01here,
00:15:01I would almost think we're up to the point where we can have a Don Callis family
00:15:04versus House of Torture full 11 on 11 football match at this point.
00:15:07But, you know, I mean, I think Don Callis family extremely, extremely strong over in AEW.
00:15:14Wow!
00:15:15You control the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship.
00:15:18You're within a hair, and I know that the, you know what I mean,
00:15:21the Continental Classic over there has to be getting underway fairly soon.
00:15:23You know what I mean, that puts you in line for a prestigious championship over there.
00:15:28You know what I mean, it could be in a position where they hold all the gold,
00:15:31not just in America, but worldwide.
00:15:36Takeshita, no unit affiliation here in New Japan Pro Wrestling.
00:15:41Fighting for himself solely and openly against Zack Sabre Jr.
00:15:47This is going to draw Takeshita in here.
00:15:50We know Takeshita, one of the best wrestlers in the stand that you're going to find.
00:15:54Sabre Jr. is up there with the best of them too though.
00:15:56Yeah, definitely.
00:15:57I asked Zack, are you going to try and grapple Takeshita, try and settle him?
00:16:02He said, well, no way.
00:16:04It's never going to.
00:16:05You can think in that position, but it's never going to play out that way,
00:16:09given how hard both of us were willing to hit during the G1.
00:16:15One of that discus elbow shot, not going to happen.
00:16:18Sabre Jr. right back down to the canvas.
00:16:20Takeshita immediate on the cover for the win.
00:16:23Nearly stole the world title.
00:16:26And a huge exploder suplex out of the alpha.
00:16:32You do not become G1 Climax winner on accident, Chris.
00:16:37It comes from grit, drive, determination to be the best in the world.
00:16:42Same thing goes the way for holding IWGP gold.
00:16:45Right, and if you have done both, then absolutely.
00:16:48And you've done both and you've main evented.
00:16:50And one is the main eventer.
00:16:52Twice in succession in the Tokyo Dome on the biggest stage we have.
00:16:56You know what I mean?
00:16:57That's something that Zack Sabre Jr. has tasted that Takeshita hasn't.
00:17:00You know what I mean?
00:17:01That line in that video.
00:17:02Man!
00:17:03The only one versus the one and only.
00:17:05That's what we've got here.
00:17:06And certainly Takeshita in a class of one it seems.
00:17:11Zack Sabre Jr. trying to crawl to safety.
00:17:22We talked about it back in April.
00:17:24The one in a millennium is Kanalsuke Takeshita.
00:17:27But to prove that out here tonight.
00:17:29Hits the ropes.
00:17:30Yeah.
00:17:31Big boot boot saver.
00:17:33Man, rocked him.
00:17:37Rocked him.
00:17:38And I think we know what Takeshita wants next.
00:17:40Takeshita wants to fly here.
00:17:42Watch out for the Alpha.
00:17:44Whoa, wipes out the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:17:53Take a look at that one more time here on Instant Replay, folks.
00:17:57Heavy crash landing.
00:17:58Sabre Jr. tried to stop that blow.
00:18:00It was going to hit one way or another.
00:18:08Great on referee Red Shoes Uno.
00:18:09Getting out to the outside here.
00:18:11Checking on both competitors.
00:18:12But we've got to bring it back in now.
00:18:13Yeah, he'll actually tell him Red Shoes.
00:18:17He's telling Arbain, no, there won't be a count out needed.
00:18:20We will be able to get this back inside.
00:18:22But, well, maybe giving a little bit too much trust to the challenger.
00:18:26No, no, to catch that, to catch that.
00:18:28Sabre Jr. safe up on that apron.
00:18:31Whoa.
00:18:31Safety denied though.
00:18:33And those ribs, cannot get that foot free.
00:18:38Precarious position on the apron.
00:18:40No.
00:18:41Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:18:44Sabre drowning.
00:18:45No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:18:47God.
00:18:49One, two shot.
00:18:52Yeah, that was double impact, Chris, you said it yourself.
00:18:56Same shot that broke Goda's arm.
00:18:58And all the more so that Takeshita took the spill off the apron.
00:19:06That's that right arm, the predominant arm of Konosuke Takeshita.
00:19:09And he's not afraid to throw rights and lefts when we talk about world-class elbows.
00:19:13That straight murder always comes from that right windup.
00:19:17No, no, no, no, no.
00:19:20Well, I think, I was gonna say it earlier on, it's actually Virginia's best shot here.
00:19:25Certainly to get a submission on Takeshita to take advantage of that windup walker.
00:19:30And we've seen it, and we talked about it in the G1, Takeshita.
00:19:34You know, he often takes just about a half a second long on that windup to uncork a big strike.
00:19:40And that windup time has now gotten longer with that elbow he has to shake loose.
00:19:44Now it's gonna get longer over the course of this match.
00:19:50A twist to that right arm from Zack Sabre Jr.
00:19:56You're not seeing anything new out of Sabre Jr.
00:19:58Nothing that we haven't expected before in World Heavyweight title contention.
00:20:02But he's doing it to the best that one possibly could inside the ring.
00:20:08When we talk about being the best technical wrestler in the world,
00:20:11you can remove the technical qualifier at any time.
00:20:14But that's only if he can survive Takeshita.
00:20:17Well, I think he's doing a pretty damn good job of it now.
00:20:20Oh.
00:20:27You know, that injury for Hiroki Goto back at Tanahashi Jam might have shown Zack Sabre Jr. his true bread
00:20:34and butter.
00:20:35We've seen multiple stomps to that right arm, very much in a Goto-esque style.
00:20:40And we're seeing a very similar effect tonight, Takeshita.
00:20:44He knows exactly what he needs to do to be able to beat Takeshita because he has done it.
00:20:49You know, he needs the tenacity.
00:20:52He's just gotta stick and stick and stick and stick.
00:20:56That's how he beat him in Osaka, hanging on to that choke.
00:20:59Yeah, Takeshita wanted that blue thunder.
00:21:00Not gonna happen though.
00:21:02Sabre Jr. uppercut into the corner.
00:21:03Don't turn your back on the alpha.
00:21:06Wow, but sending the shock waves.
00:21:08Turn it around, blue thunder bomb.
00:21:13No, Sabre Jr.
00:21:15Put it on the arm, right on the arm.
00:21:17Transitioned beautifully, beautiful.
00:21:21Takeshita didn't see it coming.
00:21:23But Sabre Jr. had it scouted a mile out.
00:21:26You talk about taking five to give one big one.
00:21:30And that is certainly the case here.
00:21:36But the damage, the impact, furthermore, the neck, the ribs.
00:21:41Zack Sabre Jr. didn't just want that arm walker.
00:21:44Sabre wanted the legs he needed to keep all of Takeshita's body in clutch,
00:21:49and he couldn't do that.
00:21:54Canalskate Takeshita may have started his pro wrestling career in DDT,
00:21:57might have forged himself further in AEW.
00:22:00But let's remind those at home, this is always where Takeshita had envisioned being.
00:22:05Always what he envisioned fighting for, that IWGP gold, since the age of four years old.
00:22:10Well, yeah, but I mean, he's someone that, as much as he wanted to be in this spot,
00:22:16you know, he said in the interview, in that documentary,
00:22:19he never even allowed himself to wanna be IWGP champion.
00:22:23That is the level, that is the pedestal that he has put this achievement on.
00:22:29I certainly don't think it's gonna allow himself,
00:22:32he can think he can win until he can do it.
00:22:34Whoa!
00:22:37Lariat, damaged arm and all, cover.
00:22:41Two count only.
00:22:45To lose that inferiority complex and ascend further into godlike status,
00:22:52you have to hold those four letters in the heavyweight division.
00:22:56Yeah, and we said that in the past, you know, the godlike status,
00:23:00you said it yourself, change it before, talk about changing the world.
00:23:03The through line, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, and Konosuke Takeshita,
00:23:08very, very clear in that DDT to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
00:23:11But Takeshita, well, I mean, you talk about IWGP,
00:23:16wants it, the bastard driver denied you.
00:23:20Cover, cover, cover, two.
00:23:23Takeshita with a chance of sending himself in a class of one.
00:23:26German suplex.
00:23:28Locomotion.
00:23:29Look at this one.
00:23:31Two.
00:23:37Yeah, and you remember, and we talked about uniting the whole world of professional wrestling.
00:23:41You saw the clips as well as I did.
00:23:43When the announcement went up, Konosuke Takeshita has won the G1 Climax to a crowd,
00:23:48to a DDT live event in Osaka.
00:23:51Yeah. The level of applause and support that was there,
00:23:54the grass roots that Takeshita has cultivated.
00:23:57And those grass roots have grown into a strong ass tree.
00:24:01And his name is Konosuke Takeshita.
00:24:02Well, it's because they've been following since the beginning.
00:24:04The struggle from DDT to AEW, to New Japan Pro Wrestling.
00:24:09To one day hold the keys to the world in your hand, you gotta put down the champion.
00:24:14And the champion's still standing.
00:24:19Rocha!
00:24:22Rocha!
00:24:25Rocha!
00:24:26Rocha!
00:24:27Rocha!
00:24:28Rocha!
00:24:28Rocha!
00:24:29Rocha!
00:24:38Rocha!
00:24:39Rocha!
00:24:42Rocha!
00:24:43Rocha!
00:24:43Rocha!
00:24:44Rocha!
00:24:45Rocha!
00:24:46Rocha!
00:24:47Rocha!
00:24:50Rocha!
00:24:52Rocha!
00:24:53No, no, no, no, no.
00:24:54Zack Trevor!
00:24:58Tip for tap, blow for blow.
00:25:01This is the IWGP.
00:25:03What?
00:25:04This is the IWGP.
00:25:15Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
00:25:36Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
00:26:08Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
00:26:09And that right there is an invitation.
00:26:11It's an invitation or it might also be a trap set on the part of the Champion Walker.
00:26:18Chris, I wanna listen in heavy to these shots here.
00:26:22You give it all you got, come on.
00:26:25You give it all you got.
00:26:32Nice.
00:26:45That right arm, that elbow, Chris.
00:26:48And that Sabre Jr's worked over since the beginning of this matchup.
00:26:50You gotta think, Sabre.
00:26:52Oh, man.
00:26:56Sabre is always about five moves ahead.
00:26:59But, well, ordinarily.
00:27:01I don't know whether he's thinking straight right now.
00:27:08The end goal for here, Walker.
00:27:11I don't think it's for Zack Sabre Jr to not get you down.
00:27:15And to get him in a spot where he can get a submission.
00:27:22He ain't getting it.
00:27:27That might have left a puncture wound in the body of Sabre Jr.
00:27:36Right through the skull, right through the mind.
00:27:39The brain rattling against bone.
00:27:45And now that is deadly distance that has been created by the Alpha
00:27:50towards the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:27:52Gotta try and close that distance, capture in for the gold.
00:27:55Here we go to Keshtar.
00:27:57Power.
00:27:58No, that's what Sabre wanted.
00:28:00Now he's got it.
00:28:01Full power to Sabre Jr.
00:28:03Full control for the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:28:11Sabre Jr. goaded in to Keshtar.
00:28:14Saw the power drive coming.
00:28:17And he's got all of it.
00:28:19It's all to Keshtar may see in the end is a black,
00:28:22black cloud over his world title opportunity.
00:28:26The Venus Flytrap Walker has snapped shut.
00:28:29And it's caught a juicy one.
00:28:33Sabre Jr. has full control here.
00:28:35This is masterful technique from the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:28:39Tekeshtar is miles from the rope.
00:28:43It's ten feet, but it might as well be a hundred miles, Walker.
00:28:48With your legs.
00:28:50It is.
00:28:51It is.
00:28:52It is.
00:28:52It is.
00:28:52It is.
00:28:52It is.
00:28:53Tekeshtar trying to kick, trying to pull his body to the ropes.
00:28:56There is no saving.
00:28:57There is no saving the Alpha right here, right now.
00:29:01No saving the Alpha, there's no stopping Sabre.
00:29:04Red Shoe's gonna stop it.
00:29:06He'll stop it if he has to.
00:29:19And to the bottom rope.
00:29:25Defying all laws of combat is Konosuke Tekeshta saving his opportunity.
00:29:31Combat time, space, physics, anatomy.
00:29:43How much time spent now?
00:29:45Hold a little bit over 60 seconds somewhere in the ballpark.
00:29:48It might have just cost Tekeshta everything.
00:29:51I mean, for any human being, and I would even go as far as to say Walker, for any of
00:29:58the people, the seconds that are gathered around that ring, 60 seconds would be far, far too long for them.
00:30:04Come on, come on.
00:30:0960 seconds in that hold would be too long for Hiroki Goto Walker.
00:30:12It would be too long for Yodosuji, too long for Katsuchiko Okada.
00:30:16But just enough time for Tekeshta to have a state of execution.
00:30:22Come on, Tekeshta, fight!
00:30:26Tekeshta in a league of his own.
00:30:29But that league might have a contender.
00:30:31Double Lariat and both men still stand.
00:30:35A battle for position.
00:30:38A need for control.
00:30:41Finally, Tekeshta got that hurt elbow.
00:30:43That wounded side.
00:30:45Can he drive the legs?
00:30:48They're pulling one way or the other with that backside.
00:30:51Tekeshta got it.
00:30:52He wants it.
00:30:53He's got it.
00:30:53Back shoulder, no.
00:30:56Tekeshta.
00:31:01Last one.
00:31:02I don't think he got all of it though, Chris.
00:31:05That right elbow letting go, gravity doing God's work here.
00:31:08Power drive, power drive, that's all he needed.
00:31:11The right knee did the work, the right elbow couldn't work it.
00:31:15A final shot, a final testament, it's over.
00:31:20No!
00:31:35For everything that these two men have done in their careers, to bring them to tonight,
00:31:41a Ryugoku Sumo Hall main event, the World Heavyweight title on the line.
00:31:46It could not have been for nothing.
00:31:59Tekeshta wants to be the wrestler that inspires Nations Charlton.
00:32:03My goodness.
00:32:04He might be on the path to it.
00:32:05I don't like the inspiration that has just struck Konosuke Tekeshta right here.
00:32:09And you remember, like a half rated fire, half brain buster.
00:32:13I don't think Zack Sabre Jr remembers it.
00:32:16He had to have watched the video to have any inclination that that's what happened.
00:32:20It's what put Tekeshta through to the final in G-135.
00:32:25Sabre just as dangerous from this position though, seated on the top rope.
00:32:34It's a fine, fine line between life and death.
00:32:37No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:32:41no.
00:32:41Sabre said you're gonna have to kill me if you wanna take the gold away.
00:32:54Well, you said earlier, Walker.
00:32:58We haven't seen anything we haven't seen before for Zack Sabre Jr.
00:33:01We ain't ever seen that, Zack Sabre Jr.
00:33:04Times aren't changing.
00:33:07Back in the net.
00:33:08The more things they change, the more things remain the same.
00:33:12World title status, Sabre Jr with the DDT.
00:33:16Straight up.
00:33:19Raging fire.
00:33:21Raging fire in the right elbow.
00:33:25Pain piercing through the body of the Alpha.
00:33:39A poor twist of fate for Konosuke and Takeshna.
00:33:43Sabre Jr too close to the ropes, Takeshna out of position.
00:33:55Well, I made it up to know where I'm wrong.
00:33:58He'll go get behind the challenger.
00:34:02Behind perhaps, a world to change.
00:34:06Sabre Jr wants the world, Takeshna.
00:34:14And listen to the switch from the crowd immediately.
00:34:17The instant, because you know what?
00:34:18They don't want this match to end, and neither do we.
00:34:23That chicken wing, that chicken wing.
00:34:29That chicken wing was what?
00:34:31Beat Gabe Kidd in the G1, beat Shingo Takagi in the G1, Walker.
00:34:36No, no, no.
00:34:43This is where you start to feel the urgency from Zack Sabre Jr, Chris.
00:34:47Back to old reliable as soon as things get a little testy.
00:34:51But what's the difference, Walker?
00:34:53The difference here is Zack Sabre Jr's ability to adapt that jazz artistry.
00:34:59The fact he can feel and not think.
00:35:03What thoughts are racing through the mind attack?
00:35:06My God, the knee races through the mind of the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:35:11It could be, will it?
00:35:13Yes, no.
00:35:14No, the elbow went, the driver's there.
00:35:17Zack Driver.
00:35:18Here we go.
00:35:20Five, two, one.
00:35:27The Alpha kicks out.
00:35:37Both then promised a match here at our main event.
00:35:42It would show beyond a shadow of a doubt for the International Wrestling Grand Prix as the pinnacle of professional
00:35:49wrestling.
00:35:49And we said, we see him just that.
00:35:53When it's a pinnacle walker that's only meant for one.
00:35:59It's very lonely at the top of the mountain.
00:36:03Sabre Jr got there last year.
00:36:06Is it his night tonight to repeat history?
00:36:15It's a catch to asking for more.
00:36:18Between begging for more action, trying to find feeling in the fingers.
00:36:49Straight murder.
00:37:02That homicide charge might get downgraded to aggravated assault.
00:37:07Because Sabre Jr is still standing.
00:37:09Sabre Jr is still fighting.
00:37:12Involuntary manslaughter.
00:37:16The only way you're gonna take that title off is that Sabre Jr.
00:37:23The arm again.
00:37:27It's a catch to trying to grapple with the best of Sabre Jr.
00:37:31Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:37:32Dropped on the neck.
00:37:34Holds on for dear life to the waist lock.
00:37:39To keep Sabre at bay.
00:37:41It's a great, great twist, Morgan.
00:37:44From the way Zack Sabre Jr entered this match with the IWGP title around his waist.
00:37:49And now it's to catch his grip that might throw it away from him.
00:37:54Man, he wrote the thesis.
00:37:56And now he's given a final education.
00:38:02Sabre Jr has been the one to deliver lessons around here more often than not in 2025.
00:38:11Kanosuke Takeshda will not let go.
00:38:15This is determination.
00:38:17This is the IWGP standard.
00:38:20Whoa.
00:38:27Takeshda, damaged arm and all.
00:38:30Power drive knee.
00:38:31The lower half to force the will of the Alpha.
00:38:37Elbow pad, knee pad, no pads necessary.
00:38:41Where we're going tonight.
00:38:42Zack trying to sit up.
00:38:44He's trying to reach for something that's further and further from his grasp.
00:38:52Power drive knee.
00:38:56He's done it.
00:39:18The standard has been redefined tonight.
00:39:23We have a new IWGP World Heavyweight Champion.
00:39:29And his name is Kanosuke Takeshda.
00:39:32Kanosuke Takeshda.
00:39:52History has been made, Walker.
00:39:54The world has changed.
00:40:09You can call it a shockwave to humankind.
00:40:13A shock to the sport of pro wrestling.
00:40:17But right now, right here, is where the true work begins.
00:40:22For the World Heavyweight Champion.
00:40:23Newly crowned.
00:40:25Congratulations.
00:40:26Kanosuke Takeshda.
00:40:45It's a quest, a mountain.
00:40:48He's been trying to climb for his entire life.
00:40:55He's been trying to climb for his entire life.
00:40:57And the strongest.
00:41:00And now, Kanosuke Takeshda is indeed the strongest.
00:41:07And the best professional wrestler on God's green earth.
00:41:28God bless pro wrestling when he created Kanosuke Takeshda.
00:41:36Will Takeshda bless New Japan pro wrestling or the greater world at large?
00:41:41We're gonna hear from your champion tonight.
00:41:50Zach.
00:41:52Zach.
00:42:03I will treat this belt I took from you with the importance it deserves.
00:42:28And calm down to the scattered boos.
00:42:32And calm down to the scattered boos.
00:42:36I am.
00:42:37And absolutely none of you has any right to complain.
00:42:40I am.
00:42:43I am.
00:42:46I am.
00:42:49I am.
00:42:50I am.
00:42:53I am.
00:42:54I am.
00:42:55I am.
00:42:56I am.
00:42:56I am.
00:43:00I am.
00:43:01I am.
00:43:02And I am.
00:43:04I am.
00:43:05I'm here.
00:43:06C'est parti, c'est parti !
00:43:16Il me semble qu'il y a un sale-out, le Monitier Walker.
00:43:19Oh, whoa, whoa, wait a minute, Flay, right down Rampside.
00:43:24We knew that there would be a bone to pick here,
00:43:27no matter who walked away with the title.
00:43:36Those blurred lines just became a lot clearer.
00:43:44Konosuke, Takeshita, I'd like to ask you one thing.
00:43:50I want to hear one thing from you.
00:43:53You knew I was coming, right?
00:44:03Next, it's gonna be me to challenge for that team.
00:44:06Can I take my challenge?
00:44:10Can I take my challenge?
00:44:11Are you gonna take that challenge?
00:44:13Are you gonna accept it or are you not?
00:44:16I'm not.
00:44:17I'm not.
00:44:20I'm not.
00:44:23I'm not.
00:44:25I'm not.
00:44:26I never even began to imagine there would be you standing opposite knee.
00:44:32You're not.
00:44:37Hey.
00:44:38Hey.
00:44:38Hey.
00:44:38Hey.
00:44:39Hey.
00:44:39Where are the young talent?
00:44:41You're not.
00:44:42New Japan Pro Wrestling.
00:44:44Hey.
00:44:44Why have you let this old veteran come up in front of you?
00:44:49Hey.
00:44:50Hey.
00:44:51Well, since it's you, you're okay to challenge.
00:44:57Il y a des gains de G1 à l'année dernière.
00:45:02Il y a aussi des taxes de G1.
00:45:06Mais...
00:45:07Je ne sais pas si je ne suis pas de connaître le monde.
00:45:14Et je ne sais pas que le monde est très fort.
00:45:18Ma revolutione est la force.

00:48:41Since the establishment, Chris,
00:48:43Of the International Wrestling Grand Prix,
00:48:45those four letters of the IWGP,
00:48:47it was prophesied that great men would hold these championships.
00:48:52But there is none greater than the IWGP Heavyweight title.
00:48:56Et il n'y a pas plus plus de justice à ce monde.
00:49:01Et le titre de la main de ça, c'est que le Alpha, Kedoskates et Kesta.
00:49:11Et chaque grand homme,
00:49:14de la philosophie, à la profession de la wrestling,
00:49:18a mis opposition.
00:49:24C'est le vrai, le plus grand ami qui se déroule pour se dérouler à cette opposition.
00:49:30Ils se déroule, ils se déroule à l'étonnement.
00:49:35Et c'est exactement la position que Konosuke Tuchescha a pris.
00:49:42il yroki gozo clearly next the when and where tba
00:49:51i know i am sure that this is not the last time we've seen the alpha in new japan pro
00:49:59wrestling
00:50:00in 2025. tkista is one to stand and fight to protect that championship just as hard as he has been
00:50:10willing to stand and fight to win it you might not like it but you have to respect it and
00:50:20you have to
00:50:21say and you have to acknowledge konosuke tkista as of this day october the 13th 2025 is the world's
00:50:29best professional wrestling wrestling fans we're going to stick around for post-match comments here
00:50:37tonight expected to be coming soon from your iwgp world heavyweight champion a lengthy walk around
00:50:43ria goku sumo hall and there is a lot a lot to try and digest as we have wrapped up
00:50:49king of pro
00:50:50wrestling 2025 the show of the autumn the event of the autumn and potentially even the champion of
00:50:56century crown here tonight could all skate to catch them well a lot to break down and discuss walker a
00:51:03lot happening still backstage i'll try and get as many updates as we can as we go through as we
00:51:08already
00:51:08talked about with aaron wolf and evil also el fantasma and hiroshi tanahashi apparently had a little
00:51:13tent backstage and the offer the invitation accepted the tag team that did not happen in world tag league
00:51:212024 el fantasma wants to make happen in 2025 it looks like the headbanger and the ace will be
00:51:29teaming up again well hiroshi tanahashi wants to compete in world tag league this year to be a great
00:51:35shout for it i think toriana might be politicking for his own tag team with hiroshi tanahashi right now look
00:51:41at him post-match combat soon to come from canalskate sakeshta let's talk a little bit more we didn't get
00:51:48a
00:51:48big chance to really dive into it bolton oleg rather evil and aaron wolf that challenge being laid out
00:51:55by a man who has been very active in the no gay dojo in aaron wolf was scheduled to make
00:51:59his debut
00:52:00january 4th 2026 and now well that leads us onward to a potential match up against evil in the tokyo
00:52:08though well i mean certainly the the the challenge has been thrown out and we'll just have to wait
00:52:13and see whether i'm sure i think evil will uh certainly enjoy the chance to humiliate someone
00:52:21on a tokyo dome bay day but i mean that is a situation where i mean as we saw with
00:52:26bolton oleg
00:52:26it's going to be a stack deck and it's going to be in your first match as a professional wrestler
00:52:30it's going to be a tough tough road to climb for aaron wolf when it comes to wrestle kingdom 20.
00:52:35it's going to be a complicated one for sure let's talk about some other matches that happened here
00:52:39tonight it was really a shock to my system i know it's going to be a shock to stardom as
00:52:43well
00:52:43as soon as the news comes about in that way the iwgp women's championship changing hands here tonight
00:52:49and for the second time in her career the first time ever a two-time champion crown for the women's
00:52:53title shuri holds the gold what we saw in every single one of our championship matches well perhaps
00:52:58with the exception of evil winning the never oh boy championship was the the consistent quality the
00:53:04intensity of the competition and we set the tone right from that opening bout congratulations to
00:53:08shuri two-time champion and of course we're going to take it to the catch the now
00:53:24congratulations watching the first challenge for the first win in the top
00:53:32Vous avez l'impression que vous avez l'impression que vous avez l'impression que vous avez l'impression que
00:53:36vous avez l'impression.
00:53:40Comme je vous l'ai dit, ce belt est vraiment une chance de faire le premier.
00:53:50Mais je ne pense pas que ce soit le goal.
00:53:53Mais je ne pense pas que ce soit le goal.
00:53:56Alors, je sais ce que je veux faire pour le nouveau mountain.
00:54:01Je veux qu'on se déranger à cette nouvelle mountain.
00:54:03Le moment où je viens d'être dans les bêtes de l'hôpital, je sais que les bêtes de l
00:54:14'hôpital.
00:54:15Je sais que l'hôpital, je sais que les bêtes de l'hôpital et les bêtes de l'hôpital.
00:54:23Je sais que les bêtes de l'hôpital et le déficit de l'hôpital.
00:54:30Je pense que je suis en train de me faire une chance, mais...
00:54:37Mais je pense que je suis en train de me faire une chance d'avoir une chance à jouer en
00:54:38Tokyo.
00:54:41Je veux que je ne fasse pas la chance à jouer en Tokyo.
00:54:44Je vous fais un jeu de 2 et 1, on a le joueur.

00:55:53je n'ai jamais vu ce que l'on a vu dans l'histoire.
00:55:57Il y a une histoire.
00:56:01Il y a une histoire.
00:56:02pour quelque chose que nous n'avons jamais vu dans l'IWGP, dans le pro-wrestling de l'histoire.
00:56:08Et c'est un site que je veux vous donner.
00:56:13Professionnel de wrestling est la seule chose.
00:56:16La seule.
00:56:18La seule.
00:56:24Est-ce qu'il y a un comment ?
00:56:28Les fans de Sidney.
00:56:31Vous m'avez dit à Takeshka.
00:56:33Vous m'avez dit comme un outsider.
00:56:37Pourquoi ?
00:56:39Ce n'est pas seulement le meilleur G1 dans les dernières années,
00:56:45mais aujourd'hui, il y a une de la plus grande champion de l'IWGP,
00:56:51Zack Sabre Jr.
00:56:53Et il m'a battu fair et square.
