MATCH MOVIE

WRESTLER COMMENT

BUSHI:
‘It's all set. Tanahashi, Ricochet, Taguchi. Hakata, Dontaku. May third. I look forward to it. Enserio- for real.’

EVIL:
‘The icon of New Japan’s past. If I put down the Ace for the second time, it's pretty clear what will happen. Remember- this is EVIL. EVERYTHING is EVIL. All of it- EVIL.’

Hiromu (clutching dolls):
‘IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship, Hiromu Takahashi versus Ricochet. Ready, fight! (Bashes dolls together). Ahh! Uwaa! Get him! Bash him! Yeargh! One! two! three! Yaaayyy! I'm so glad I found him in my toy box! He's so much fun to play with! He can leave me satisfied! Oh, yeah, let's have more, more! More! MORE!! Fun together.’

Naito:
‘Ota and Nagaoka in March, Korakuen in April. I’ve pinned Juice Robinson three times. Juice pins me once in Ryogoku, and all of a sudden he's number one contender? What about my three wins, cabron? Does everyone remember? When Juice Robinson first came to New Japan, his very first matches in his very first tour were tagging with me. That was a huge opportunity for him. The biggest! But he didn't leave a single impression on me. Maybe if he had, he could be in Los Ingobernables de Japon now. He's going to use that time as a springboard to face the king now? Listen. Juice in Beppu in the main event of a major show. All of that, the big card, the main event spot, it's because of me, right? I'm looking forward to seeing a Juice Robinson that rises to the occasion tomorrow in Korakuen. Hasta manana. Adios!’

Tanahashi:
‘NEVER 6 man title match coming up, and the single match with EVIL. I'm going to take all my frustrations I shut away, shake them off, and take them out on those guys!’

Ricochet:
‘Hiromu, Hiromu, Hiromu, it’s OK. Tonight was just a bump in the road. You want to bring your dolls out, names written on them, that doesn’t matter to me. The only thing that matters is the IWGP Junior Heavyweight championship. Bring your dolls, play your games, but when the time comes, I’m going to take that damn belt from around your waist. Playtime’s over, buddy.’

Juice:
‘You kick the belt during your entrance? You kick the Intercontinental Championship belt to the ring? You might as well piss on New Japan. And after you win the match, you knock down and beat up Marty Asami? Are you a man? Are you a p**sy? Or are you a champion in New Japan. You are a champion. You act like an asshole, but you’re a champion. And I’ll tell you something. I may not beat you on the 29th. I might not! But guess what, I’m going to beat your ass!’

Taguchi:
‘Never mind the result, what was up with Yoshi Tatsu’s hair? Negro Casas? He goes to Mexico and wants to be like Negro Casas? What if Negro Casas jumped off a bridge? If he wants to be in Taguchi Japan, he needs to do something about that hair.’

* No comment from Yoshi Tatsu.
