Sumo-November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 10 Results (11/22/22) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 10 of the November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament in Fukuoka:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, J-Juryo
Makuuchi (Top Tier):
Azumaryu (M14) beat Kotoeko (M12)
Onosho (M11) beat Ichiyamamoto (M14)
Hiradoumi (M10) beat Kotoshoho (M11)
Oho (M13) beat Aoiyama (M10)
Okinoumi (M13) beat Takanosho (M9)
Chiyoshoma (M10) beat Takarafuji (M8)
Tochinoshin (M8) beat Terutsuyoshi (M16)
Endo (M7) beat Atamifuji (M15)
Kagayaki (M15) beat Myogiryu (M7)
Ryuden (M6) beat Abi (M9)
Ura (M3) beat NIshikigi (M6)
Meisei (M2) beat Hokutofuji (M5)
NIshikifuji (M5) beat Ichinojo (M2)
Tamawashi (K) beat Wakamotoharu (M4)
Kotonowaka (M1) beat Daieisho (K)
Takayasu (M1) beat Tobizaru (K)
Midorifuji (M3) beat Mitakeumi (S)
Wakatakakage (S) beat Sadanoumi (M4)
Takakeisho (O) beat Kiribayama (K)
Hoshoryu (S) beat Shodai (O)
Leader: Hoshoryu, Oho (9-1).
Of note: Mitakeumi’s quest to regain Ozeki rank this time is over. He needed at least 10 wins and now can only finish with 9 at most. Shodai is now two losses from demotion himself and must finish 4-1 to get out of Kadoban status. Wakatakakage still has a chance at Ozeki consideration if he can win his last 5 matches.
Tomorrow’s key matches: Oho vs. Abi and Hoshoryu vs. Mitakeumi
Also, a correction from yesterday-I mentioned that Hoshoryu was the grandson of former Yokozuna Asashoryu. Hoshoryu is actually the nephew of Asashoryu.

Juryo:
Enho (J11) beat Shimazuumi (J13)
Takakento (J11) beat Chiyosakae (J10)
Daiamami (J9) beat Gonoyama (J14)
Daishoho (J9) beat Tsushimanada (J14)
Shimanoumi (J8) beat Kaisho (J10)
Roga (J13) beat Kotokuzan (J80
Tochimusashi (J7) beat Tokushoryu (J12)
Oshoma (J12) beat Kinbozan (J7)
Kitanowaka (J6) beat Hidenoumi (J4)
Mitoryu (J3) beat Akua (J5)
Tsurugisho (J3) beat Churanoumi (J2)
Bushozan (J2) beat Yutakayama (J4)
Tohakuryu (J1) beat Chiyonokuni (J5)
Hokuseiho (J6) beat Chiyomaru (J1)
Leader: Akua, Tsurugisho (8-2)
Key match tomorrow: Akua vs. Tsurigusho. The winner is in control of the championship lead. The loser still has a chance though.

Asanoyama Watch: As expected, no match today. The former Ozeki faces fellow unbeaten Tamashoho, currently at Makushita 23, for another chance at a championship and almost certainly promotion to Juryo. Who the winner will face for the title won’t be known until the other 2 5-0 rikishi face off on Day 12. The championship match likely will be on Day 13.
In the lower tiers, which are already underway on Day 12 as of this post, Takerufuji has all but won the Jonokuchi championship after beating fellow unbeaten Kyokutaisei. Takerufuji will only need to win his final match for the title in his Debut tournament. Both are headed for the Jonidan in January.

BREAKING: NEVER Title Defense Possibly Set (Updated)

Following up on the drama the last couple months between New Japan and NEVER Openweight Champion Karl Anderson refusing to defend the title earlier this month, the next defense may be set. Anderson posted a video on Instagram today announcing he will return to New Japan on 12/14 in Sendai to defend the title. That’s the current tour-ender date with the World Tag League & Super Jr. Tag League Finals. We should hear something definite from New Japan soon, maybe late tonight US time, and then maybe find out if Hikuleo will still get his chance at the title per the original plan.

This all started in October when Anderson and Doc Gallows returned to, and subsequently re-signed with, WWE after Anderson was announced foe the 11/5 New Japan event. Anderson announced he would instead be at the WWE event in Saudi Arabia that day despite the prior commitment to New Japan. The promotion threatened to strip Anderson of the title but didn’t and Hikuleo instead faced (and beat) Yujiro Takahashi.

More as it becomes available.

UPDATE: It’s now official. Anderson-Hikuleo for the title will happen on 12/14.

New Japan 11/22/22 Results

New Japan kicked off the 2022 World Tag League today, the promotion’s traditional year-end tag team tournament. This event is for Heavyweight Tag Teams and likely will award a title shot at Tokyo Dome to the winners, assuming they can get All Elite Wrestling to allow FTR to go to Japan that day.

Today’s event was held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on New Japan World.

The announced paid attendance was 700, a legit advance sellout. Vocal cheering was allowed again.

Match 1: Ryohei Oiwa beat Yuto Nakashima.

Match 2: Tomoaki Honma & Togi Makabe beat Oskar Leube & Kosei Fujita. Makabe pinned Leube after a King Kong kneedrop.

Match 3: BUSHI, Hiromu Takahashi & Shingo Takagi vs. DOUKI, El Desperado & Taichi went to a double countout.

World Tag League:
Match 4: Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls beat Gabriel Kidd & Alex Coughlin. Nicholls pinned Kidd after Thunder Valley.
Match 5: Lance Archer (All Elite Wrestling) & Minoru Suzuki beat Chase Owens & Bad Luck Fale. Archer pinned Owens after Blackout.
Match 6: YOSHI-HASHI & Hirooki Goto beat Yujiro Takahashi & EVIL. Goto pinned Takahashi.
Match 7: Aussie Open beat Toru Yano & Hiroshi Tanahashi. Kyle Fletcher pinned Yano after Corealis.
Main Event: SANADA & Tetsuya Naito beat Aaron Henare & Great-O-Khan. Naito pinned Henare after Destino.

Day 2 is Friday. The next event is Super Jr. Tag League Day 2 tomorrow at Arena Tachikawa Tachihi in Tokyo. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 1 AM PT/4 AM ET.

BREAKING: DDT Title Vacated

DDT has announced that the KO-D Tag Team Championship is now VACANT. Previous champions Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura have been forced to vacate the titles because Yoshimura was injured during his match on 11/18. Herniated disc in his neck. Out indefinitely but at least a few months. No word yet on plans for crowning new champions.

More as it becomes available.

Sumo-November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 9 Results (11/21/22) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 9 of the November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament in Fukuoka:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, J-Juryo:
Makuuchi (Top Tier):
Ichiyamamoto (M14) beat Okinoumi (M13)
Kotoeko (M12) beat Atamifuji (M15)
kagayaki (M15) beat Kotoshoho (M11)
Oho (M13) beat Onosho (M11)
Hiradoumi (M12) beat Aoiyama (M10)
Azumaryu (M14) beat Takarafuji (M8)
Myogiryu (M7) beat Chiyoshoma (M10)
Endo (M7) beat Terutsuyoshi (M16)
Ryuden (M6) beat Takanosho (M9)
Nishikigi (M6) beat Tochinoshin (M8)
Nishikifuji (M5) beat Abi (M9)
Hokutofuji (M5) beat Ichinojo (M2)
Meisei (M2) beat Takayasu (M1)
Kiribayama (K) beat Kotonowaka (M1)
Tamawashi (K) beat Ura (M3)
Hoshoryu (S) beat Sadanoumi (M4)
Midorifuji (M3) beat Wakatakakage (S)
Wakamotoharu (M4) beat Mitakeumi (S)
Daieisho (K) beat Shodai (O)
Tobizaru (K) beat Takakeisho (O)
Leader: Hoshoryu, Oho (8-1). Both are the first to clinch winning records this tournament. In Oho’s case that means a promotion. Hoshoryu will stay at Sekiwake in January and now will have a chance at Ozeki consideration-every win he gets the rest of the way will improve his odds as right now he would need to go 14-1 in January. With 6 days left getting that record this time could mean just needing a winning record next time.
Of note: Tamawashi won with a technique called gasshohineri that is among the rarest in sumo. The last time a match was won with it? 1967! Go find this match online.
Ozeki Watch: Mitakeumi’s margin for error to get back to the second-highest rank is now zero. At 4-5, he must win his final 6 matches or he starts all over on the path to promotion. Wakatakakage also has to win his last 6 to have any chance at Ozeki promotion this time. Shodai is now below .500, meaning the Kadoban Ozeki must finish 4-2 or better to avoid demotion.

Juryo:
Enho (J11) beat Roga (J13)
Shimazuumi (J13) beat Kaisho (J10)
Daishoho (J9) beat Gonoyama (J14)
Daiamami (J9) beat Tokushoryu (J12)
Kotokuzan (J8) beat Takakento (J11)
Tsushimanada (J14) beat Shimanoumi (J8)
Tochimusashi (J7) beat Chiyosakae (J10)
Hokuseiho (J6) beat Oshoma (J12)
Mitoryu (J3) beat Chiyonokuni (J5)
Tsurugisho (J3) beat Kinbozan (J7)
Akua (J5) beat Bushozan (J2)
Churanoumi (J2) beat Kitanowaka (J6)
Chiyomaru (J1) beat Yutakayama (J4)
Tohakuryu (J1) beat Hidenoumi (J4)
Leader: Akua (8-1). He is the first to earn a promotion this tournament and moves one step closer to a return to the top tier.

Asanoyama Watch: Another tough match for the former Ozeki in Makushita, but he pulled out a win over Shonannoumi to go to 5-0 for the 3rd straight tournament in his return and is one of the final 4 at 5-0 that will compete for the championship the rest of the way. One more win should definitely get him back to Juryo in January, as of right now 5 wins is a toss-up. No match tomorrow.

In the Sandanme, 6 sit at 5-0 after the first half of round 6. In the Jonidan, 5 are currently at 5-0 including September Jonokuchi champion Otani, looking for his second championship in just his second career tournament. In the Jonokuchi, Kyokutaisei and Takerufuji both won their matches today (Kyokutaisei was in the Jonidan) to improve to 5-0. Neither has a match on Day 10 (or had as the lowest two divisions have about finished their matches already).

New Japan 11/21/22 Results

Sumo-November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 8 Results (11/20/22) (Halfway Point) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 8 of the November 2022 Grand Sumo Tournament in Fukuoka, the halfway point of the tournament:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, J-Juryo, Ms-Makushita
Makuuchi (Top Tier):
Okinoumi (M13) beat Yutakayama (J4)
Oho (M13) beat Atamifuji (M15)
Hiradoumi (M16) beat Kotoeko (M12)
Kagayaki (M15) beat Chiyotairyu (M12) by default/withdrawal
Onosho (M11) beat Terutsuyoshi (M16)
Kotoshoho (M11) beat Ichiyamamoto (M14)
Azumaryu (M14) beat Chiyoshoma (M10)
Aoiyama (M10) beat Takarafuji (M8)
Abi (M9) beat Endo (M7)
Ryuden (M6) beat Tochinoshin (M8)
Hokutofuji (M5) beat Myogiryu (M7)
Nishikifuji (M5) beat Takanosho (M9)
Midorifuji (M3) beat NIshikigi (M6)
Ura (M3) beat Ichinojo (M2)
Takayasu (M1) beat Kiribayama (K)
Meisei (M2) beat Tamawashi (K)
Wakatakakage (S) beat Daieisho (K)
Kotonowaka (M1) beat Mitakeumi (S)
Hoshoryu (S) beat Tobizaru (K)
Takakeisho (O) beat Wakamotoharu (M4)
Sadanoumi (M4) beat Shodai (O)
WITHDRAWAL: Chiyotairyu (M12). RETIRED. Reportedly wants to open his own restaurant in Tokyo. He will finish the tournament with a final record of 2-6-7.
Leader: Hoshoryu, Takayasu, Abi, Oho (7-1)
On the flip side, there have been 2 demotions officially handed out today, both Takarafuji & Terutsuyoshi are now 0-8 and are assured losing records. Enjoy those last few top-tier epic salt throws because Terutsuyoshi will be demoted to Juryo in January. Ura staved off demotion today but must win out to avoid it.
Halfway observations: Watch Oho the rest of the way, his fast starts have generally followed by severe second half slumps. Abi & Takayasu have both been here before and look to be in top form. Hoshoryu is the wild card, but if he can keep this up the grandson of former Yokozuna Asashoryu may be positioning himself for not only his first championship, but a chance at Ozeki promotion by March. On the flip side, the recent championship curse continues-September champion Tamawashi is now 1-7.
Ozeki Watch: Takakeisho is in great shape, just one win off the lead, while Shodar will have to finish 4-3 or better to get out of Kadoban status and avoid demotion. At Sekiwake, Mitakeumi must finish 6-1 or 7-0 to get back to Ozeki, while Wakatakakage will need the same for a promotion chance (Wakatakakage needs at least 11 wins for the minimum 30 over the last 3 tournaments required).

Juryo:
Tsushimanada (J14) beat Shiden (Ms1)
Chiyosakae (J10) beat Shimazuumi (J13)
Oshoma (J12) beat Kaisho (J10)
Daishoho (J9) beat Roga (J13)
Gonoyama (J14) beat Shimanoumi (J8)
Kotokuzan (J8) beat Tokushoryu (J12)
Tochimusashi (J7) beat Takakento (J11)
Kinbozan (J7) beat Enho (J11)
Kitanowaka (J6) beat Daiamami (J9)
Hokuseiho (J6) beat Tsurugisho (J3)
Churanoumi (J2) beat Mitoryu (J3)
Bushozan (J2) beat Chiyonokuni (J5)
Akua (J5) beat Tohakuryu (J1)
Hidenoumi (J4) beat Chiyomaru (J1)
Leader: Akua (7-1). No more Juryo man appearances in the top tier for now following Chiyotairyu’s retirement unless there is another withdrawal before the final day.

Asanoyama Watch: As expected, no match today. The former Ozeki is one of 8 Makushita men at 5-0 and will face fellow unbeaten Shonannoumi, who at Makushita 1 will be promoted to Juryo in January for the first time in his career, tomorrow. A win may be enough for Asanoyama to return to Juryo in January, at worst he would be Makushita 1. I still believe he will need at least 2 more wins.
In the Sandanme, 11 are at 4-0 going into the second half of the tournament. In the Jonidan, 12 are 4-0 while in the Jonokuchi, former Maegashira 8 Kyokutaisei is tied with Takerufuji, who is also 4-0 in his Debut tournament, at the top. Takerufuji competes tomorrow while Kyokutaisei is in the Jonidan. At this point it’s virtually guaranteed Kyokutaisei will be promoted back to Jonidan in January, a pace that could put him back in Makushita in May and Juryo by September.

Ganbare Pro 11/20/22 Results

Ganbare Pro ran their second event of the month today, continuing the build to their year-end major event at the end of December.

Today’s event was held at 2AW Square in Chiba and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE at a later date. There was no live broadcast.

The announced paid attendance was 84.

Match 1; Moeka Haruhi beat Yoshiko Hasegawa.

Match 2: YuuRI beat HARUKAZE.

Match 3: Takao Soma & Tyson Maeguchi beat Shuichiro Katsumura & Shinichiro Tominaga. Soma pinned Tominaga with a rollup.

Tokyo Joshi Pro 11/20/22 Results

Tokyo Joshi Pro continued the Fall 2022 house show tour today with a final preview of their next major event coming up next weekend.

Today’s event was held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The announced paid attendance was 215. Interestingly, this was a late day event that ran opposite the New Japan/Stardom joint event and not the usual midday matinee.

Before the event, a public signing ceremony for next weekend’s title matches was held.

There were apparently some unannounced last-second changes to the card as, based on the Up Up Girls performance and 3rd match, no Hikari Noa. New Up Up Girls member-in-training Shino took part in today’s performance in her place. It’s not known what happened to Noa. She was to have faced Mizuki & Mahiro Kiryu in a 3-way. It became a single match instead.

Match 1: Miu Watanabe beat Kaya Toribami.

Match 2: Hyper Misao beat Pom Harajuku.

Match 3: Mizuki beat Mahiro Kiryu.

Match 4: Yuki Aino & Raku beat Shoko Nakajima & Neko Haruna. Raku pinned Haruna after Sunrise.

Match 5: Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Kamifuku & Nao Kakuta beat Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo. Kakuta pinned Edno after Shiden Kai.

Main Event: Billie Starkz & Millie McKenzie beat Yuka Sakazaki & Miyu Yamashita. McKenzie pinned Yamashita with an arm-mounted Saito suplex.

The next event is “ALL RISE ’22” on 11/27 at Korakuen Hall. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin Saturday at 9 PM ET/6 PM PT.

New Japan/Stardom 11/20/22 Results

HISTORIC X-OVER, the first joint New Japan & Stardom event, is now in the books. The two promotions, both owned by Bushiroad Corporation, put on a dream card today although it was tempered somewhat by the rules not allowing true intergender matches-in the mixed tag matches the men could only wrestle against the men and the women against the women-when one team tagged out, the other side had to do the same, so nothing like we see in DDT (with Saki Akai matches) and on the US independent scene.

Today’s event was held at Ariake Arena in Tokyo and currently can be watched on demand as a PPV on New Japan World in English (additional purchase required). It will be a PPV only replay for the next week. It will be available on demand without additional purchase to all New Japan World subscribers at a later date. There was also a 1 hour pre-show that, for now, can be watched FOR FREE on YouTube.

The announced paid attendance was 7102. No vocal cheering allowed. Depending on the layout, this probably was just short of 80% capacity (the venue’s normal capacity is 12,000 but I’m guessing the setup cut it down closer to 9000).

Pre-show Match 1: Oskar Leube Debut Match: Gabriel Kidd, Clark Connors, Kevin Knight & Alex Coughlin beat Oskar Leube, Kosei Fujita, Ryohei Oiwa & Yuto Nakashima. Coughlin pinned Leube after DPD. Leube is a new Young Lion from Europe (I don’t remember which country but I want to say Germany) who has been trained/mentored by Yuji Nagata.

Pre-show Match 2: MIRAI won a 15-woman Stardom Battle Royal, last eliminating Super Strong Stardom Machine.

PPV:
Match 1: Lio Rush, Yoh, YOSHI-HASHI & Tomohiso Ishii beat Dick Togo, Sho, Yujiro Takahashi & EVIL. Rush pinned Togo after 3K.

Match 2; Saya Kamitani, Lady C & AZM Beat Himeka, Thekla & Mai Sakurai. Kamitani pinned Sakurai after Firebird Splash.

Match 3: Giulia & Zack Sabre Jr. beat Syuri & Tom Lawlor. Sabre beat Lawlor with a European Clutch.

Match 4: Natsupoi, Tam Nakano, Yoshinobu Kanemaru & Taichi beat Momo Watanabe, Starlight Kid, El Desperado & DOUKI. Taichi pinned DOUKI after Black Mephisto.

Match 5: Utami Hayashishita & Hiroshi Tanahashi beat Maika & Hirooki Goto. Hayashishita pinned Maika after Hijack Bomb.

Match 6: Gideon Gray, Francesco Akira, TJP & Aussie Open beat BUSHI, Hiromu Takahashi, SANADA, Shingo Takagi & Tetsuya Naito. Kyle Fletcher pinned BUSHI after Corealis.

Match 7: The Great Muta Final New Japan Match: The Great Muta (Keiji Muto), Kazuchika Okada & Toru Yano beat Great-O-Khan, Jeff Cobb & Aaron Henare. Okada pinned Henare after Rainmaker.

Match 8: IWGP US Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay beat Shota Umino to retain the title. V4 for Ospreay. Next up: Possibly Kenny Omega, who issued a recorded challenge for Tokyo Dome on 1/4. That’s a big if because 1/4 is a Wednesday next year and All Elite Wrestling will be making their Seattle, WA debut that night. When asked about Tokyo Dome last night at the post-PPV media scrum, AEW President/Owner Tony Khan indicated he wanted most, if not all the AEW roster present for this event. So either he OK’d this or Omega, an Executive Vice-President of AEW, is already getting himself back into potential hot water just hours after returning from an indefinite suspension following AEW’s prior PPV in September (a reported post-PPV altercation backstage involving The Young Bucks, who also returned last night, and CM Punk, who is not expected to return to AEW).

Main Event: IWGP Women’s Championship Tournament Finals: KAIRI (Independent/Freelancer) beat Mayu Iwatani to win the tournament and the title and become the inaugural IWGP Women’s Champion. KAIRI is Kairi Hojo, who began her career in Stardom before leaving in the 2010s for WWE, where she became Kairi Sane, then returned to Japan after being released and changed her name back to just her first name. The first challenger: Tam Nakano. That will happen on 1/4 at Tokyo Dome.

Next up is the World Tag League and Super Jr. Tag League 2022, beginning tomorrow at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. The tournaments will alternate dates through most of the tour, with the Super Jr. Tag League starting first then the World Tag League following on Tuesday. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 1:30 AM PT/4:30 AM ET, and even better, you can watch tomorrow’s event FOR FREE! Also, every remaining New Japan event this year will be live on New Japan World.
