00:00Hello wrestling fans, we are live here tonight, night 5 of New Japan Pro Wrestling's Best of the Super Junior 32 Tournament.
00:10My name is Walker Stewart alongside the professor of Pro Wrestling, Chris Charlton.
00:14Chris, Yadoshiko Nagashima.
00:15Yadoshiko Nagashima.
00:16And we are set here tonight.
00:18It is 10 matches.
00:21Block A, Block B has split them down the middle.
00:23You put them all on tonight's card.
00:25And we're kicking it off in a big way.
00:26Ninja Mac versus Best of the Super Junior 30 winner, Master Watto.
00:34Everybody's in it to win it.
00:36And everybody's on the board in A Block.
00:40Oh.
00:41Whoa.
00:42Oh.
00:43This is, you need one of these.
00:45This is what I've been saying for ages.
00:48I hope you receive.
00:50Wow.
00:50Get that on you.
00:51Look at this.
00:52We finally got you a blue dot.
00:54We're going to have to figure it out.
00:55Oh, I'm going to cherish this.
00:59Oh my, Chris.
01:01I think it's your size, actually.
01:02I think it's your size, actually.
01:02Everybody said for so long, Walker, you've got to face the radio.
01:14And now, finally, we get to hear your dulcet tones.
01:18And I don't have to look at you.
01:19Okay.
01:19Well, you're extra mean today.
01:23I've kept it.
01:24It's been building up.
01:26It's been two weeks here.
01:28Oh my, Chris.
01:29Get it.
01:29Get it.
01:31Get it.
01:32Go, Chris.
01:32Get it.
01:46Get it.
01:46Go, Chris.
01:48Go, Chris.
01:50Well, it is a 1-2 record heading into tonight for both of these men.
02:04Master Watto and Ninja Mag at an even two points matched up nice and tidy.
02:08One of these two men will be breaking that two-point streak into a four-point run in
02:14Mock A of this year's Best of the Super Junior Tournament.
02:17All of a sudden, we're very, very close to the mid-way point in this Tournament.
02:41We got 10 more league matches today, 10 league matches tomorrow, and then we're into the second half of this Tournament.
02:46It is so important to have a winning record going into the back end of this, and that means, well, I mean, if you lose this, there's no way you're going to have a winning record after five matches.
02:59That said, everybody is still in the hunt, especially in A Block.
03:03Everybody's got on the board, as I've said, and there's only one man right at the top of the table, and that is Kosei Fujita.
03:09We will be seeing Kosei Fujita in action later on here tonight.
03:16But for the time being, let's talk about the virality of Ninja Mac.
03:21And, well, it has been viewership after viewership that has been going the way of Ninja Mac.
03:25You talked about it before.
03:26The Pat McAfee Show shouted out right on there.
03:29NJPW World, ESPN, Barstool Sports, everywhere you can view it.
03:33But, you know, virality hasn't exactly come the way with wins for Ninja Mac.
03:38Well, I mean, virality can be a nasty double-edged sword from what I hear.
03:43But, yeah, I mean, I think Ninja Mac has been, maybe, ever since he got all those plaudits and very richly deserved on his first Tournament matches,
03:54he's been a little bit more focused on the spectacle and making more sports headlines than he has been about actually getting two points at the end of the night.
04:02Let's see if he can lock in in this one.
04:07Heard a lot about the importance of locking in.
04:11I know you're always locked in.
04:13That's why.
04:14I do my best.
04:16We'll talk about it.
04:17He's the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion against a man who competes tonight as a freelancer in Ninja Mac.
04:23I've been knocked out a couple of times.
04:25Knocked out?
04:26Well, I've heard.
04:28And we're going to try our best to keep you off the bench going forward throughout this Tournament.
04:32But, Master Watto, you know, it is our opening match of the evening.
04:36No wonder we're getting right into the swing of things.
04:38Or, rather, we are getting right into the swing of things for Best of the Super Junior this year.
04:42We're swinging, buddy.
04:43Main event tonight, IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion El Desperado takes on DDT's Mao.
04:48And I can't believe it, but a first-time singles match we're getting here tonight between those two.
04:52Yeah, they've been campaigning for that match to happen for a good long time.
04:57El Desperado has dropped his last two.
04:59He needs to get back on the winning horse as soon as possible.
05:03In the meantime, I think Master Watto getting a little bit surprised by how capable a grappler Ninja Mac is.
05:09And, whoa, wait a second, the backflip count officially sponsored.
05:13Ninja Mac, hey, wait a minute, my mask!
05:16He needs it!
05:19Oh, well, Master Watto.
05:21Chris Sampson, sportaprowrestling.com, has been keeping the official backflip stats from Ninja Mac on this Tour.
05:27Currently up to 16, I believe.
05:29Huh?
05:30Well, Master Watto is taking the mask right off our broadcast table.
05:36What's the sign?
05:38Oh, wait a minute.
05:39Hey, there's Walker.
05:41I'm seeing double.
05:42There's four Ninja Macs.
05:48Well, I can't really tell who's who.
05:52Well, my glasses are in the shop, too, Chris.
05:54Oh, can't wait.
05:55Yeah, lost with my luggage.
05:56The crowd are chanting Ninja, Ninja, Ninja, but who for?
06:10How, I mean, obviously, Master Watto is on the way to the Grandmaster.
06:14Sure.
06:15The Ninja Grandmaster.
06:17Right.
06:17Grandmaster in Ninjutsu.
06:18Let's see how well he does.
06:19I think this is that Supergiant Ninja from WCW.
06:24Oh, yeah.
06:25Heard all about him.
06:29Oh, wow.
06:31Ninja Watto takes the advantage.
06:35What's he got here?
06:37Indy's gonna go for a Ninja Special.
06:38Could be here.
06:40No.
06:40So.
06:41Well, that's why Master Watto's won half the Junior Tag Team Champions.
06:47Yeah, that weighs a former Best of the Super Junior winner as well.
06:56Well, Master Watto is gonna prove here tonight that he can do what Ninja Mac does best.
07:01Wear that mask, flip-flop, and fly, but it's gonna be flying to the outside here.
07:07As well, Ninja Mac's having deja vu.
07:10Oh, look out here.
07:13Oh, you're not safe.
07:14He's still going.
07:15He's still going at it.
07:17No, you've been sidestepped at that time.
07:31Get over here.
07:34Scorpion.
07:36This is like Scorpion in Sub-Zero, right?
07:38Ninja.
07:39Oh, a human video game character, it's Ninja Mac.
07:45Oh, and Ninja Mac with the super kick.
07:48Slows Master Watto down on the roll.
07:50And a chop to the chest is gonna take Ninja Mac and Master Watto right out in front of us here.
08:10He's taking his mask off, that's a DQ, right?
08:13Well, I don't believe that's the case.
08:15And, oh, hey, how about it?
08:17Come on.
08:18Oh.
08:19Don't be that.
08:19I've been told I need it, but.
08:22You need that mask.
08:23Starting to believe you.
08:27Maybe you can.
08:28You're welcome from Ninja Mac, how about it?
08:32You can hear on those impacts on those kicks, as spectacular as Ninja Mac is, he can definitely get the job done.
08:50Very effective strikes and an underrated grappler as well.
08:54But Master Watto, watch, double leg Nelson.
08:57I think he likes to use Vendaval out of that, but he didn't get it.
09:00And now it's Ninja Mac who looks to set up in a big way.
09:08And Watto who looks to slow the roll down.
09:11Let's make a deal, says the dealer.
09:14Oh, got the tornado kick in the back of the head.
09:21And a cover here for Mac.
09:25And it's only two.
09:27Now Ninja Mac a little bit more focused.
09:31This is what I like to see, get enough of that cover.
09:35Try to win at every eventuality.
09:38Highlights are nice, but they don't pay your checks.
09:40Can't feed your family on exposure, Walker.
09:43Well, Ninja Mac is going to be feeding generations if he lands this one.
09:48Ninja Mac, right to the back of the neck.
09:56And now, Vendaval locked in nice and tight for Master Watto.
10:02Great, great counter by Master Watto.
10:05The knees to the neck and then straight into Vendaval.
10:08Going to roll him up.
10:09Wow, Ninja Mac has no idea where to pay his attention to it.
10:13He's going to make the tap right here, match over, Master Watto the ball.
10:18Great strategy by Master Watto.
10:22And here was the time, or I've said it before in this tournament,
10:25where Master Watto would be flinging things at the wall and seeing what would stick.
10:29Master Watto has wrestled so maturely over the course of the last several weeks.
10:35And we've seen that maturity playoff there against Ninja Mac.
10:47Well, this is going to keep Ninja Mac at two points.
10:52Master Watto, meanwhile, will be joining Dragon Dia, Francesco Akira, and Robbie X at four points.
10:59And that's all in the kickoff for tonight's Vendaval Super Junior action.
11:02Those numbers are certain to change all the way up and down on said match card here tonight.
11:17Who wears it better?
11:19Well, I think it's okay.
11:21You can have it back.
11:23Oh, well.
11:24Oh, okay.
11:25I think I'm going to touch my box.
11:27Well, I guess I'm leaving with a new toy tonight.
11:32It's going fresh on the mantle, Chris.
11:35Well, as long as it's not going fresh on MeriCaddy and Yahoo Auctions.
11:40That's an even better idea.
11:42We'll get a signature on it.
11:43We'll do something nice for charity.
11:44How about that?
11:45I actually love that idea.
11:46What's going on, the man?
11:47Match two coming up right now.
11:48It's Block B action.
11:51the bullpen and Wizards.
11:52That gives you 3 different.
11:53What's going on, the man?
11:54Match 2 coming up right now.
11:55It's Block B action.
