GLEAT ran their latest major event today, dubbed GLEAT Ver. EX.
Today’s event was held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on YouTube (it was a free live broadcast).
The announced paid attendance was 729.
Match 1: Kaz Hayashi, Minoru Tanaka, Yu Iizuka, Jun Tonsho & Junjie beat Hagane Shinno, Yumehito Inanari, Shota, Mizuki Watase & Kaji Tomato. Hayashi pinned Imanari.
Match 2: Tomoaki Honma (New Japan) & Ryota Hama beat Kotaro Suzuki & Hartley Jackson. Honma pinned Jackson after Kokeshi. Wow, haven’t seen or heard from Hama in a long time, not since the former sumo wrestler left All-Japan after former yokozuna (Grand Champion) Akebono did (their SMOP tag team was something else).
Match 3: MICHIKO, Aoi, Risa Sera & Arisa Nakajima beat Yukari Hosokawa, Sayaka Unagi, Itsuki Aoki & Yurika Oka. MICHIKO pinned Hosokawa.
Match 4: Lidet UWF Double Bout: Masakatsu Funaki & Tyson Maeguchi beat Soma Watanabe & Tetsuya Izuchi by KO. Maeguchi beat Izuchi.
Match 5: In a No DQ match, Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto beat Takanori Ito & Issei Onitsuka. Miyamoto pinned Onistuka after Fire Thunder into lighttubes.
Match 6: Ryuichi Kawakami, KAZMA SAKAMOTO & Check Shimatani beat The Great Sasuke (Michinoku Pro), GAINA & Ultraman Robin. SAKAMOTO pinned Sasuke.
Match 7: Kaito Ishida Return Match: Kaito Ishida beat CIMA by submission. Afterwards, Ishida requested to face Takehiro Yamamura at his return match on 12/30 at TDC Hall in Tokyo. But so did Issei Onitsuka. Therefore, a match between Ishida & Onitsuka to determine the 12/30 opponent will happen on 11/3 at Tokyo FM Hall.
Match 8: El Lindaman & Hayato Tamura beat SBK & TAKUMA. Lindaman pinned TAKUMA with a tiger suplex hold.
Main Event: G-REX Champion T-Hawk beat Shuji Ishikawa (All-Japan) to retain the title. V4 for T-Hawk.
The next event is G PROWRESTLING Ver. 62 on 10/21 at Umeda Stella Hall in Osaka. Broadcast plans TBA but since it’s Osaka there likely will be no live broadcast. It should be available on YouTube no later than 3 days after the event.
