New Japan ran the second part of the TAMASHII launch event yesterday, their first event in Australia following what was considered a successful launch event in New Zealand.
Yesterday’s event was held at Liberty Hall in Sydney, Australia. There was no live broadcast and on demand video likely will not be available.
The announced paid attendance was 500, a legit sellout.
Match 1: Jordan Allen-Wright beat Mat Diamond by submission.
Match 2: Unsocial Jotdan & Aaron Jake beat Richard Mulu & Jake Taylor. Jordan pinned Mulu with a schoolboy.
Match 3: Robbie Eagles beat Carter Deams by submission.
Match 4: Bad Luck Fale, Johnny Bonza & KENTA beat Mat London, Jude Rogers & Paris De Silva. Bonza pinned Silva.
Match 5: Aaron Solo beat Lyrebird Luchi.
Match 6: Michael Richards & Aaron Villalobos beat Caveman Ugg & Ricky South. Richards pinned Ugg after Fisherman’s Buster.
Main Event: Taiji Ishimori beat Mick Moretti by submission. Afterwards, Eagles issued an IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship challenge to Ishimori should he retain the title at Tokyo Dome, and added the match should be in Sydney.
No word yet on when the next TAMASHII event may be.
