Pro Wrestling NOAH ran a NOAH SANCTUARY event today, the latest in their occasional series of fan-centered events, which served as both build towards CyberFIght Festival ’22 with DDT participation and also as a farewell-for-now for Junta Miyawaki, who is heading off on an overseas training excursion.
Today’s event was held at Club Citta Kawasaki aka Noah Special Arena in Kawasaki, Japan and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.
The announced paid attendance was 162, which was a legit advance sellout.
Match 1: Yoshiki Inamura vs. Kazusada Higuchi (DDT) went to a 15 minute time limit draw.
Match 2: YO-HEY & Extreme Tiger beat Haoh & Alejandro. YO-HEY pinned Haoh with YO-ROLL.
Match 3: Michael Elgin & Masa Kitamiya beat Simon Gotch & Kinya Okada. Elgin pinned Okada after Elgin Bomb.
Match 4: Junta Miyawaki Send-Off Match-Kaito Kiyomiya beat Junya Miyawaki.
Match 5: Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Pawl & KANON (DDT) beat Kenoh, Hajime Ohara & Hi69. Sasaki beat Hi69 with a Mystica crossface.
Main Event: Satoshi Kojima (New Japan), Mohammed Yone & Atsushi Kotoge beat Go Shiozaki, Shuhei Taniguchi & Daisuke Harada. Kojims pinned Taniguchi after a Western Lariat. This was to have been Kojima, Naomichi Marufuji & Kotoge vs. Shiozaki, Taniguchi & Harada but Marufuji was removed a couple days ago due to knee pain. Yone was the replacement.
The next event is the SUNNY VOYAGE 2022 Tour opener Sunday at Aore Nagaoka in Niigata. There is no live broadcast scheduled but it will be on demand at a later date. There are no live broadcasts scheduled again until after CyberFight Festical ’22 (there are 2 Korakuen Hall events next week on Tuesday & Wednesday but both are ABEMA-only live streams, the next live broadcast excluding CyberFight Festival will not be until 6/22).
