NOAH Great Voyage in Yokohama

Pro-Wrestling NOAH
Great Voyage in Yokohama
12th October 2014, Cultural Gymnasium, Yokohama

After the relative stinker in Niigata, NOAH played their cards immediately correctly by announcing a hip and relevant main-event and a slew of major title bouts for the Yokohama supercard (here) and a very attractive line-up for the Global League (coming soon).

Your main event

These larger NOAH events seem to do quite well at the gate too, attracting a reported 3500 for this particular show. Admittedly New Japan dragged an extra 2000 bodies into the same building but let's not be churlish - NOAH still has some sex appeal remaining, even if it seems to have a kind of funereal tone in parts.

G1 CLIMAX 24: Day 11

G1 CLIMAX 24: DAY ELEVEN
Bunka Gymnasium, Yokohama
8th August 2014

It's the last day of regular competition at this year's overwhelmingly successful G1 Climax and the names of the finalists are yet to be decided (shocking, I know!). Usually the finals take place right after the final Block matches, meaning that the final night has more people in contention than we have tonight. The downside of that is that more of these matches are 'meaningless', but the upside is that people know that the final is guaranteed to be star-studded and the last run on Seibu Dome tickets can commence.

Here are the brief permutations: in Block A, if Hiroshi Tanahashi wins, he wins the Block. If he loses, the winner of Bad Luck Fale and Shinsuke Nakamura wins. Should Tanahashi lose and Katsuyori Shibata win, Shibata would take the runners-up slot. In Block B, if Okada wins, he wins. If Styles wins and Okada loses, Styles wins. If both lose, Okada wins. Here, courtesy of the amazing @matsu_bomaYe is the potential finalist club having a break.
