CR: Haya Nansuki was certainly entertaining on the mic, but can he back it up in the ring? That question remains unanswered. Fans our next match promises to be a classic. Its not your traditional match. President Moditian has ordered, what amounts to an 8 way match. 8 men are in it for themselves. They're are not friends, its every man for himself. The winner will become to International Champion. Lets go to Sato in the ring for the introductions of these 8 warriors.
