00:00This is the first time I'm going to be playing with the game.
00:07I'm going to play with the game.
00:14I'm going to play with the game.
00:21I'm going to play with the game.
00:27We always wonder which way this one's going to go, Walker.
00:38Showing Desperado 3-3 in singles competition.
00:44Show will plumb any depth.
00:46One of those wins over the IWGP Junior Airway Championship via Countout.
00:52I mean, last time we were hearing Hatsiochi,
00:55he had Hiromi Takashi mugged and tied up backstage.
01:00So, I mean, really, anything goes with this piece of work
01:05and anything will go here in Hatsiochi.
01:258.4.
01:26Neva Muzabeku Noburi Taku Champion, House of Doucher,
01:32Madamashin, Show'o!
01:38Wait a second, he's going to denigrate the people of Hatsiochi, no doubt.
01:48No, well, I'm not going to repeat that.
01:50It was not very complimentary to this town.
01:52You can if you want to.
01:53You can if you want to.
01:54You can if you want to.
01:55All right.
01:56All right.
01:57But, I was looking forward to this, because he gets to wrestle the champion tonight.
02:05Oh, wait.
02:10It sounds like Desperado maybe won't be able to wrestle.
02:17What?
02:18I can hear some clashing and banging.
02:20What the hell is Show talking about?
02:21You can hear a hell of a racket backstage, but...
02:24Well, whether or not Desperado can wrestle,
02:31Show says he's going to take out the trash.
02:33The trash being Desperado.
02:34I mean, I can hear a big clash and bang backstage.
02:37I'm not sure.
03:00What's going on here?
03:01Oh, wait a second.
03:03Wait a second.
03:04I don't think this worked out quite the way Show had planned.
03:08Yeah, certainly not at all.
03:13I think El Desperado...
03:16Show thought Yujiro was going to do his dirty work.
03:20Desperado thought otherwise.
03:22Oh, my God.
03:24Oh, my God.
03:26Oh, my God.
03:28Show was licking his chops when he heard all that crashing and banging backstage.
03:35He thought that Yujiro was beating up on Desperado.
03:38It was the opposite.
03:39Oh, the bell sounds were officially underway with it.
03:43Match we've seen eight times previous junior heavyweight title, steel cages.
03:59We don't need a steel cage for things to get violent with El Desperado.
04:02Yeah.
04:03And we know that for a certain.
04:04Yeah.
04:05I said three and three, that's the record of Show is Show and not Show Tanaka the Young Lion.
04:11Right.
04:12I mean, but I think El Desperado is, well, he's got a young boy Show right here if he has his way.
04:19Well, all is fair in love and war, Chris.
04:34And it is not love tonight.
04:36Nothing is fair when the wrestling show.
04:39Nothing is fair when the house is involved.
04:42Oh.
04:49Oh, meanwhile.
04:50Yeah.
04:51Oh, Red Shoes had his back turned.
04:53Yeah.
04:54Show drawing the referee.
04:55And he got to take the corner pad off anyway.
04:58And Yujiro got a chair shot.
05:00Oh.
05:01Great job, Uno.
05:02Yeah.
05:03Everything's going the way of the house right now.
05:05I mean, house of torture, it's like no people at school who are the worst bullies, but they still managed to escape by.
05:15Still managed to get into the best colleges.
05:18Still managed to get promotion after promotion after promotion at work.
05:21That's house of torture.
05:24Now, house of torture, it felt like justice was done in that steel cage match in Fukuoka.
05:33And that they lost a ton of money, Walker, from losing the Bullet Club name.
05:38All of that merchandise deals that were written aren't on them.
05:41And now, somehow, they've gotten a Tekken 8 sponsorship.
05:44And that's said right back in to keep them in cigars.
05:47It is indeed El Desperado who has had the last laugh over show in their six encounters post-show's excursion.
06:04Battles done through New Japan Pro Wrestling and Pro Wrestling NOAH alike.
06:08Meanwhile, right in front of us here.
06:13Red Shoes isn't looking.
06:14And Yutro, it's that pimp's cane right to the mid of Desperado.
06:19And this is embarrassing.
06:20Well, it is, but it's something that Desperado had to know was coming.
06:27Certainly, Desperado knew the mugging was coming backstage and dealt with it appropriately.
06:32But now, here we are.
06:33It is a two and one.
06:35It's a handicap match.
06:36Desperado is the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion.
06:39He's not gonna have anybody coming out here to help him.
06:42It's an entire tournament of men who are gunning for Desperado and what he has.
06:55And even still, El Desperado is gonna have to fight this battle alone, handicapped.
07:02As Despe avoided that turnbuckle, show to us just the same.
07:07Uh-oh!
07:17Desperado off the ropes.
07:20Spear!
07:21Spear the show!
07:22Shot right through the Black Heart is shot.
07:28And now a little bit of space.
07:30A little bit of space not to fight through the paint.
07:33but to allow the pain to do what it does best to Desperado,
07:38take it to a different level.
07:47And we know full and well, El Desperado
07:53feeling the effects of that battle with Mal.
07:57Wait, wait, wait, wait. Look out, Desper!
07:59Oh!
08:03And Desperado landing on his feet
08:08and doing exactly what he needs to do.
08:10Walker, he's not going to be able to beat Shaw
08:12unless he beats Udrow at the same time.
08:15Desperado! Desperado!
08:18Desperado! Desperado!
08:22Desperado! Desperado!
08:25Desperado! Desperado!
08:29Desperado!
08:31Desperado!
08:32Desperado!
08:33Desperado!
08:43Desperado!
08:45Five minutes down, 30 minute time limit.
08:48So many times we've seen these two do battle, and still,
08:51you never know which way it's gonna go.
08:53This isn't exactly Desperado's wheelhouse walk up, he'll fly anyway.
09:03We'll see it, man splash from El Desperado.
09:08And the man splash on the cover, too.
09:11Yeah, a little message to Jin Kasai will be wrestling June 24.
09:15And if Desperado is the champion,
09:17said he put the title on the line against the Crazy Monkey.
09:23He's a champion.
09:27He's a champion.
09:30He's a champion.
09:35Desperado pointing out to the one sole solitary show fan in the crowd.
09:41And he's in it to mock the murder machine.
09:47Here we go.
09:52Here we go.
09:54Tune up the guitar.
09:55Right to the eyes.
10:04Right to the referee.
10:07Watch out.
10:08Spear from Sho.
10:20Thankfully, we still have the official intact, at least for the time being.
10:24And Sho able to deliver that spear.
10:27A battle at four points.
10:40More than that, if you're the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion, only at four points.
10:44After halfway through the tournament.
10:47Oh, for pride as well.
10:49Sho finds the rope.
10:54Larry, look at the power from Sho.
10:58The cover again.
10:59Two.
11:00Two.
11:04There's no denying the power from Sho.
11:07There's no denying his ability.
11:12There's a professional wrestler.
11:15There's a submission grappler.
11:17All of the physical tools.
11:19And he's just, well, mentally on a different plane.
11:24And an absolute bastard to go with it.
11:27Sho might be thinking of Yujiro's special.
11:34That Uajima pimps that we saw.
11:37Yeah, Uajima pimps.
11:39He's the shame of Uajima.
11:41He's the worst product that's ever come out of that town.
11:46Oh, no.
11:47Power breaker.
11:49Power breaker from Sho.
11:53Champion down.
11:54Two more points.
11:55No.
11:59Every bit, my goodness, he got all of that power breaker.
12:03Two, two, two, two, two, two.
12:08Two, two, two, two.
12:13Two, two, two.
12:14Two, two, two.
12:18Two, three, two, three.
12:35Now, after something like that, you can imagine all the punishment, Walker, that's gone through the back of El Desperado really all year.
12:42year i mean you can see it we don't need to tell you you can see all the scars on there
12:47and following up with that power breaker it means that el desperado for all of the world in the world
12:54he ain't going to be getting up for very long
12:59think about the champion christ will always ask for more no matter how much is dealt out by show
13:05tonight
13:22so the grinning raving lunatic a shock arrow puts him at six points desperate escapes
13:35cry of war from despe pinche loco inbound and show to turn it all the time
13:55damn it to hell yeah i had to say it was coming at sooner rather than later
14:05a damn disgrace of a professional wrestler in 2025 that's usual oh give me a damn break
14:20it's been a damn disgrace for a good deal longer than that
14:23that's why you're free to take a look now that eudrow's done his dirty work oh wait a second this
14:35baby just this baby took his mask off walker just threw it to show
14:39oh wait wait if the referee sees the show on mass desperado it'll be a disqualification oh it would be
14:50but that would be that would be red shoes jurisdiction here and
14:54he took his mask off red shoes he took his mask off
15:03so took it used team tip walker i saw it with my own eyes
15:10i think red shoes just got a peek at what shoe is playing keep away with
15:38the mouth guard rose flying uh well despe is not going to wait for the debate
15:53genius from the iwgp jr champion
16:03that might take a long wait for show to regain consciousness
16:07that's the mo of show
16:36Yudro Takahashi in the House of Torch at large to weaponize the rule set to the best of their abilities
16:41El Desperado matching fire with fire two more points on the board is going to advance the junior heavyweight champion
16:49to six points in totality
16:52and that is going to put him just a little bit closer in the block B side of the race
16:56when it comes to fighting fire with fire he do not
16:59play with fire with a pyromaniac Desperado moving up to six as you said he's got Yo coming up in Osaka on Thursday
17:09and that's going to do it for the B block side of the fence here tonight
17:14Nick Wayne leading B block alone back once again at eight points Taguchi, Titan and Desper at six
17:21and everybody else at four two wins off the pace still with three matches to go four matches to go
17:29and the next time you'll be seeing block B competition will be on a block B solo night
17:36that'll be May 22nd coming up very very soon in Osaka Kevin Knight will be taken on show
