00:00Dans le deuxième match, le premier match de la Coupe de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe de Tournament,
00:06le match de seconde match.
00:11Le match de seconde match, n'importe quelle minutes à la Coupe de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe
00:21de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe de Nouvelle-Japan Coupe, une victoire de 4 matchs.
00:25Of course the opponents vary bracket-to-bracket, match-to-match.
00:30In order for Zack Sabre Jr. to make it to the finals,
00:35he will have had to defeat Tetsuya Naito, Kota Ibushi, and now Sonata.
00:43Some have said the absolute longest road to get to even the finals was Zack Sabre Jr.
00:50And if he wins today, all he'll have to do is to defeat the seven-time former ace of New
00:59Japan Pro Wrestling, Hiroshi Tanahashi.
01:02So, quite a quartet of victories for Zack Sabre Jr. who has shown his submission prowess, the difference.
01:11And the new hype man is here as well.
01:13Now, Suzuki, British Heavy,並びに British Taka Champion, Zack Sabre Jr.
01:21You mean with Zack? That's Taka, that's Taka Michinoku.
01:25Oh, okay. They all have the same. Gotcha.
01:28He's got one of those faces though.
01:31New Japan Pro Wrestling Tournament 2018,準決勝戦!
01:39Zack Sabre Jr. vs.
01:42Sanada Katsuno,誰ですか? Taka Michinoku
01:47now asking the
01:49crowd for the semifinal, who is gonna win?優勝するのは誰ですか?
01:54誰ですか?
01:56Who's it gonna be?
02:00New Japan Cup優勝するのはいつ何度にどんな体勢でも関節技
02:07Submission Holderが決めるこの男
02:10,無限の Submission Holderこの男,一戦
02:14,何特設や
02:16The only one, who can twist and turn the opponent
02:22Submission Master
02:23The Submission Master
02:25ZSJ
02:26He is
02:28The Sabre Jr.
02:54Sous-titrage Société Radio-Canada
03:02Thank you Django for the translation
03:15Now Sonata in the bottom half of the bracket
03:19Had Chucky T in the first round
03:21An injury replacement for Beretta
03:25Was able to face Torriano
03:27Instead of Davey Boy Smith Jr.
03:30In the quarterfinals
03:34And now
03:35Tangles with Zack Sabre Jr.
03:39It would have been I'm sure a different kind of match
03:41Against Beretta
03:42It obviously would have been a different kind of match
03:45Against Davey Boy Smith Jr.
03:52But Sonata has proven
03:55To be able to take what the opponent gives him and turn it into opportunity
04:02Chucky T went a little wild and crazy
04:04Got the table out
04:06And it was Sonata that wound up putting Chucky T through the table
04:09Torriano of course the sublime master thief
04:12Tried to steal victory by count out
04:14And it was Sonata that almost got Yano counted out
04:17We got a little flavor of the ground wrestling ability of Sonata the other night
04:22He might be the equal
04:30I don't want to say equal to but he might be able to hang with Zack Sabre Jr. on the
04:35back
04:37So it's Zack Sabre Jr. vs. Sonata
04:40The semifinals of the New Japan Cup
04:42The winner faces to advance Hiroshi Tanahashi
04:45On the 21st
04:47And you will see it live here on NJPWworld.com
04:52Sonata was the most recent challenger for Okada in the IWGP Heavyweight Championship
04:58Zack Sabre Jr.
04:59Never having had a taste of that championship gold
05:04And the first one-on-one meeting between these two
05:08And the first time that they even touched
05:12The first time they even got physical in a match against one another
05:15They've been on opposite sides
05:17Was the other night
05:21And I have to say
05:22It has made me just wait even more
05:25As you see Taichi
05:27I've had great anticipation for this one
05:29I'm sure you have as well
05:31Taichi providing the Suzuki-gun point of view on commentary
05:35Bad luck foul A
05:36Of course I like how you call it down the middle
05:39You've been very fair
05:40Very honest in your opinions
05:43I'm a fair man
05:57And Zack pulls him down
05:59Now
06:00Trying to recognize what's there
06:03Instead of barring the arm
06:05Turning it up
06:06Top wrist lock
06:14And now we're inching on it
06:16Now going back to the top wrist lock
06:21It's almost like wrestling by experimentation and feel
06:30And Sonata
06:31Put on the rope
06:33You know you look
06:34Probably of course at the slight build of Zack Sabre Jr.
06:37And you might say
06:37Okay
06:38That's somebody I could take
06:40That's what I thought
06:42When I faced him in the G1 line
06:45He's a dangerous man
06:47You can get to a position you can
06:53He's got one of those faces though
06:54Oh he certainly does
06:56I want to punch him in the face
06:57Yeah yeah yeah yeah
07:04Alright no no no no
07:10And Sonata doing the work on the left arm
07:13And you see the top wrist lock positioning
07:20Controlling the wrist
07:23Sabre Jr. trying to find the escape
07:26Notice the great fine leg
07:30Sonata maintains control
07:33And Zack nowhere to go but down
07:40Talked with Zack Sabre Jr. briefly this afternoon
07:43Said he knows that
07:47As a
07:50Muto trainee
07:52That
07:53And he's seen enough Sonata matches to know
07:55How good he is
07:57At all phases of the game
08:02Said that
08:04Sonata
08:05While a Muto guy
08:06More in that Inoki
08:08Fujinami style
08:11Of athlete that was so prevalent
08:15A couple of generations ago
08:16He has everything it takes
08:18Said about Sonata
08:20To be a success and a champion here
08:22In New Japan Pro Wrestling
08:23That's why he's here
08:28I feel as though
08:29Sonata still has a lot
08:30Up his sleeves
08:32Still hasn't let it all out
08:34And that's
08:35Kind of
08:35We
08:35You know we speculated
08:37When was
08:37When were we going to start
08:39To see some of that
08:40And I think we have now
08:41With the
08:42Starting to use the moonsault
08:43A little bit more
08:46Variety of offense
08:49Now he's blended
08:51Begun to blend the skull end
08:53Submission hold
08:54With the moonsault
08:55Making a combination
08:57Very effective here
08:58In this tournament
09:00Going to the right
09:02Going to the right
09:03Going to the right
09:03Going to the right
09:05Oh no no no no
09:09Jack had difficulty
09:10Controlling the left arm
09:12Of Sonata
09:13So he will try the right arm
09:16And the leverage edge
09:17Favoring Sonata there
09:29Trying to
09:31Power through
09:34Sonata with the
09:35Strength edge here
09:37But
09:40Pitting the shoulders down
09:42And
09:42Jack to the bridge
09:45And look at the way
09:46He's got the
09:47Standing on
09:48The hand
09:51Gives him the opportunity
09:52To pin the arms back
09:53You know
09:54I asked Zach about
09:56The matches that he's had
09:58And he said
09:58It's easy compared to
10:00You know when you
10:01Travel with New Japan
10:02Wait a minute
10:03Shoulders down
10:04I'll tell that story
10:04In a moment
10:05We might have a victory here
10:06When you travel to New Japan
10:07It's so much easier
10:07He beat it for years
10:09Pro wrestling Noah
10:10Much longer trips
10:11Much longer bus rides
10:14He's felt good
10:15On this tour
10:17He's gotten his rest
10:19And
10:20Did you know
10:21Zack Sabre Jr.
10:22Is a vegan
10:23Fale
10:23Oh he didn't look
10:25No
10:25Yes
10:26Is that why he looks so
10:27Skinny
10:29That's
10:29Exactly why
10:31And the turnaround
10:34Through from Sonata
10:35Said it also
10:37Helps him
10:38Reduce his inflammation
10:40Helps him maintain
10:41His flexibility
10:48Trying to
10:49Power through
10:51And Sonata
10:52Hangs on
10:54Reduce his inflammation
10:54And Sonata
10:58Reduce his inflammation
10:59Our referee
10:59For this main event
11:08Watch the
11:09The left hand
11:10As it's starting
11:11To collapse down
11:12Towards Sonata's head
11:12Nope
11:14Sonata would not
11:15Let go
11:19Certainly if we stay
11:21At this pace
11:21The matchup
11:22Will eventually
11:23Favor
11:23Zack Sabre Jr.
11:25At least
11:25One would think
11:26But
11:27Sonata is showing
11:28More
11:30Ability
11:31Than you might think
11:32To hang
11:34With Zack Sabre Jr.
11:44So many physical gifts
11:46For Sonata
11:46Now
11:47Quicketing the pace
11:56Zack Sabre Jr.
11:57Said
11:57In his matchup
11:58With Ibushi
11:59That if he
11:59If Ibushi
12:01Decided to
12:03Moonsault
12:04Moonsault
12:05Off of anything
12:06Zack would simply
12:08Move
12:08And he did
12:08Just that there
12:09One
12:10Two
12:10Three
12:12Four
12:13Five
12:15Six
12:16Seven
12:17Eight
12:19Nine
12:20Ten
12:21Sonata looking
12:22Very confident
12:23So far
12:23Fale
12:2417
12:2514
12:2715
12:2916
12:3017
12:3218
12:3318
12:35Finally rolling in
12:36Almost
12:36Like a
12:37The equivalent
12:38To a standing
12:38A count
12:39In boxing
12:41Zack keenly aware
12:42Of the count
12:42At all times
12:43And takes full
12:44Advantage of
12:45Being outside
12:46As long
12:46As he can
12:47So while
12:47Sonata
12:48Looks like he
12:49Has a plan
12:50Whatever the plan
12:50That
12:51Sabre Jr.
12:52Had
12:53I need you
12:54Rethink
12:54We'll see
12:54What happens
12:57Needs to
12:57Keep an eye
12:58On the fly
12:58Outside
12:59The fly
12:59There
12:59You mean
13:00The hype
13:01Band
13:01Talking about
13:02Jinoku
13:03Yeah
13:03They all
13:03Look alike
13:04Ah
13:04Gotcha
13:05Oh fuck off
13:26Sonata controlling
13:28Once again
13:33Jack Sabre Jr.
13:34Frustrated
13:34Right now
13:36Going to try
13:37Another escape
13:38And he's
13:39Done it
13:42Stranglehold
13:43Here
13:45He has
13:46Sonata
13:46Tied up
13:50So many
13:51Different
13:51Methods
13:52Of attack
13:53Wait a minute
13:53Sonata
13:54Sonata
13:55Turns it
13:55Around
14:13Well he
14:15Man if you can see the look on
14:18Zack's face right now
14:19He is
14:19Literally searching for answers
14:21He is
14:23Frustrated
14:23And you can see it on his face
14:25But now
14:26Trying to use the legs
14:26Ah
14:32Yes
14:33Yeah
14:35Yeah
14:35Yeah
14:37Yeah
14:38Yeah
14:38Yeah
14:39Sonata
14:39Through does
14:42And right back in
14:45Keeps having
14:46The answers
14:46Fale
14:47There you go
14:59What would you do
15:00If you were
15:01Zack Sabre Jr.
15:02What would you do
15:03If you were Taka
15:04You know
15:04Because you cornered
15:05Devitt
15:05You cornered AJ
15:06You've been in some corners
15:08Of some big matches here
15:09What would you do
15:10What would you say
15:10Wait till he gets close
15:11Yes
15:14I was hoping for some
15:17You know advice
15:18Well I guess that is advice
15:20Hey look at Sonata
15:22Spring and fly
15:23Punch over the top rope
15:35It has been just about all
15:37Sonata here so far
15:38In our second semi-final
15:39Of the new japan cup
15:41Watch out
15:42Watch out
15:42Sonata
15:43Come on
15:43Come on
15:44Come on
15:45Come on
15:45Come on
15:46Come on
15:49Sonata
15:52Sonata hearing the
15:53Tears of approval
15:54A sportsmanlike way
15:56Of rolling back in
15:56Not very
15:57Sportsmanlike
15:58When he wrestled
15:59Toriano
15:59The other night
16:00Of course
16:00It was fight fire
16:02With fire
16:03Come on
16:04The wind now
16:06Put Sonata
16:07In this opportunity
16:08Come on
16:09Back
16:09Come on
23:40CSJ's out
23:43Quick spring, let's try the moonsault
23:45Here
23:50The knee buckled
23:51A little bit as he hit the bat
23:53A PK from Zack Sabre Jr
23:56Maybe a mistake
23:57I think there's another
24:00Who needs to start sticking
24:01To these big news
24:02Who wants to win this
24:05Well he went for it there
24:07Absolutely right
24:10Let's keep an eye on
24:12I wonder if
24:14Zack noticed
24:15The jar, oh man
24:19Stomping down on the
24:22The arm
24:23Right in the tricep
24:28Golly
24:30We've seen others use that
24:32For example, the villain Marty Scurll
24:35Has used that as a setup
24:36To multiple submission victories
24:38With the crossface chicken wing
24:41And while
24:42Zack does not have
24:46One
24:48Patented
24:49Submission hold
24:50That is
24:51His and his own
24:53Anything could be a submission
24:55Anything
24:55Even this right here
25:0020 minutes
25:0120 minutes pass
25:02But the pace of this match
25:04Volley
25:05We're already at 20
25:11I'm surprised
25:11I'm surprised that
25:1320 has gone by already
25:18Exactly
25:18He's kept it to his pace
25:20Yeah
25:27Taking some shots
25:28Back trying to find an opening
25:31Sonata now
25:32Set across
25:32Watch this
25:34Sonata Spring
25:35Bangborn
25:36Dropped it
25:43That athleticism
25:44The difference there
25:46Sonata needs to stop getting on him
26:00One fall to a finish
26:01We are
26:02We will not have a
26:05Cannot have a
26:06Time limit draw
26:07There is no time limit
26:08In these cup matches
26:11Here in the semifinals
26:12Finals
26:16And the winner could be
26:18Zack Sabre Jr
26:18It might be Sonata
26:20But it's looking
26:20Oh up on the shoulders
26:22TKO
26:22Can he hit it
26:23Second time
26:23No
26:25Second time he's tried
26:26Second time
26:27Zack has had a different
26:28Counter
26:33Look at the way
26:34The arm is pulled
26:35With the waist lock
26:38Gripping at the wrist
26:39The shoulder
26:46Sonata trying to power through
26:49Yeah
26:50He's got him
26:51Around the head
26:51Folling
26:56Oh
26:57Oh it is over
26:59He's going to put him out
27:00Right there
27:01He'll collapse
27:02Go in
27:02No wait
27:04Back to the
27:05Oh
27:11Finding new
27:12In different ways
27:14O'Connor roll
27:15O'Connor roll
27:16Caught him
27:17Stayed
27:17Wait
27:17Oh beautiful
27:20Deck floats over
27:21Sweeps the legs
27:23Shoulders going to go down
27:24Roll up
27:25Stand on his head
27:27All the way to the
27:27Oh man
27:28Back into the hole
27:32This time
27:33The full application
27:35Of the skull end
27:43Now he's got it
27:45No wait
27:48Crapped again
27:49Another bridge
27:50Oh my god
27:54A lot of non-surprise
28:03It's been a wonderful wrestling match
28:06Sonata now
28:07Oh man
28:09Kind of just ended the night
28:11For Zach with that one
28:16A heavy forearm
28:18Uppercut forearm
28:31Uppercut forearm
28:31GKO tries it a third time
28:33Another counter
28:34Another different way
28:36To count
28:47What kind of human anatomy lab
28:49Did Zach Saber Jr. come up
28:51With some of these moves
28:58Well he's going out
28:59Triangle
29:03It's about the
29:05It's the third time
29:06That Sonata's tried
29:08The TKO
29:08It's the first time
29:09He's in the triangle
29:10Though
29:14Well wait a minute
29:16He's going to go back
29:17To the TKO again
29:18This time
29:20He hits it
29:26Is four times the charm
29:28As he made the finals
29:29For the first time
29:30No
29:39Not a quarter finalist
29:41Last year
29:52Certainly got the people
29:53On his side
29:56Tigers too much
29:57Oh man
29:58One
30:00Two
30:0425 minutes
30:0525 minutes
30:0625 minutes
30:0825 minutes
30:0925 minutes
30:10Here we go
30:14Amuto
30:15Devote
30:16Amuto
30:17Retired
30:17Amuto
30:18Oh no
30:19Not the
30:19Amuto
30:20Back into the
30:21TKO
30:23Rating down
30:24He's going to win
30:25By tap out
30:27Could be going out
30:29Could be going out
30:37Well if he doesn't
30:39Tap out
30:39He might just
30:40Go out
30:43Going to try
30:43To power his way
30:44Out again
30:46Ibushi tried this
30:47The other night
30:48Couldn't do it
30:52Match ended
30:53Via stoppage
30:54We might be having
30:55The same
30:55Scenario unfold
30:57Here
31:08Sonata not only
31:09Trying to reach
31:09With his fingers
31:10Which are now
31:11Bent back
31:12Oh no
31:22Sonata trying to also
31:23Reach for his feet
31:24And now
31:25They've vindicated
31:27Paul A
31:28What does he do
31:29One more leg
31:35Sonata submits
31:43Just too much pain
31:45Too much anguish
31:47Not enough respect
31:48Pain to Zack Sabre Jr
31:51But he's done it
31:52He's made the finals
31:53Of the New Japan Cup
31:54No more
32:05Probably
