G-Pro Battlefield
01/31/99
Venue: Tokyo Coliseum, Tokyo, Japan
Dark Matches
- The Avatar defeated Jun Fuchiyama by submission with his Cry For
Vengeance inverted figure-four leglock.
- "Cataclysmic" Chris Johnson defeated Rakurai by pinfall in a
No-Disqualification Jisatsu Match with a top-rope double backflip open body
splash.
- A jisatsu match pitting Akujin against Serei Ketsueki was ruled a
no-contest as the match was interrupted by Demon Boy Ishrinku who stormed
the ring and laid out both men with two of his patented Northern Lights
Bombs. He then remained in the ring, waiting for Battlefield to go on
the air.
Broadcast Card
- At the beginning of the card, Demon Boy Ishrinku called out "Blood
Angel" Simon Ezra and the two had a verbal confrontation but were
pulled apart by G-Pro security before it could get out of hand.
- "ThunderStryke" Simon McQuaide then came out to announce his
retirement from wrestling due to a severe injury to his ankle. He
called out "WIldcat" Jim Lewis Jr. and "The Thunda From Down
Unda" Jason Storm to thank them for their friendship. He then
called out "The Winged Rider" Toru Okamoto and offered him his
place in Wildcat's International Brotherhood. Okamoto accepted and
vowed to carry on McQuaide's legacy.
- Jensei Tenru defeated Tetsu Ikazuchi by pinfall with the Tenru Special
crucifix neckbreaker. After the match, Bram Black came out for a
staredown but walked away without saying anything.
- Wuzho then came down to the ring and called out Kashan Akuma for a
face-to-face confrontation. After some verbal sparring, Akuma
challenged Wuzho to face him later on in the card and Wuzho accepted.
- In a Combative Tag Team Championship title match, The Fabulous Ones
won the straps when they defeated the team of "Flyer" Jinsei
Shakanuzi and Wuzho by pinfall after "Sweet" Sho Satsuma pinned
Shakanuzi following a flying headbutt. Earlier, Wuzho had abandoned
Shakanuzi in disgust over cheating tactics used by "The
Flyer". With "Universal Heartthrob" Agito Nakajima
announcing he would be leaving G-Pro, this leaves the future of the
Combative Tag Team Championship in doubt.
- In a first-round match of the EMWC Pacific Title tournament,
"Madfox" Jeff Matthews defeated "The Vagabond" Chris
Staley by pinfall with The Foxden flying neckbreaker.
- A promotional video was shown advertising the Cold Blood supercard at
the The Sapporo Snow Festival.
- "Blood Angel" Simon Ezra then came out and promised to inflict
a great deal of pain on Demon Boy Ishrinku. He was joined in the ring
by his tag team partner, "The Outlaw" Bobby Taylor, who made
similar promises about Bram Black.
- "Wildcat" Jim Lewis Jr. and "The Winged Rider" Toru
Okamoto defeated Mark Langseth and "Hardcore" Bobby Storm by
pinfall when Okamoto pinned Storm following an inadvertent chairshot from
"Flyer" Jinsei Shakanuzi. After the match, Shakanuzi attacked
Simon McQuaide and Ms. Anna who were at ringside but he was driven off by
Lewis and Okamoto.
- TORA Wanizame and his sidekick Bob came out to verbally abuse The
Banshee and Jinsei Yakamotu but were chased from the ring by an enraged
Yakamotu.
- In another first-round match of the EMWC Pacific Title tournament, The
Banshee defeated Jack Greene by pinfall with The Scream Machine flying
somersault splash.
- In a Stairway To Hell Match, "Black Knight" Alex Martinez
defeated "Black Dog" Yoshito Katsumura by pinfall after Katsumura
accidentally pinned himself following a fisherman suplex.
- "Black Dog" Yoshito Katsumura defeated Kamen Mekura by
submission with a crucifix armbar. At thirteen seconds, this was
officially the shortest match to ever take place in Gunyro Pro history.
- In a tag team match, puroresuring legend (and G-Pro
commentator) Jinsei Yakamotu and The Banshee defeated TORA Wanizame and
Bob when Yakamotu pinned Wanizame following a reversal of a pin
attempt. Kashan Akuma was the special guest referee and "The
Great Fletcha" attempted to favor the Zokugun Sangai team but their
plans backfired.
- In a G-Pro Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship match, "The Thunda
From Down Unda" Jason Storm retained his title when he defeated Bram
Black by pinfall following a face-first Ligerbomb.
