(NOAH) Recommendation for 2019: Junta Miyawaki

Recently, Junta Miyawaki's matches have been very interesting. As ever, he is making a new attempt, challenging things, and the precision of his techniques is also rising dramatically, for example the variation on the Fisherman's Suplex. Hajime Ohara, whose move it was, has encouraged him to learn it.
The judo method, which his own background is in, is becoming one of the key points of his matches.
Although Miyawaki has not left the realm of the rookie yet, he is laying the foundation for that rapid progression towards that time. No, it does not suit him to be so straight laced, he simply fights each match, and the course he must take to the ring is not too far in the distance (rough translation).

The man himself has crazy matches, but is happy that they are fun.
Despite being unable to win his first victory, last year in December he challenged for the GHC Junior belt with Seiya Morohashi, and expressed his intention to challenge for the title on the microphone for the first time, despite his nervousness. The fight on the 6th January at Korakuen Hall against Ohara & Kumano, was a non title match. Despite losing after fighting a good fight, he exceeded expectations, and from the end of last year he has certainly polished his judo based technique. It can be said that with the shoulder throw he has become able to excite the inside of the hall as from there he will be able to connect the move into arm crucifixion and triangle moves, and with this he has gradually been able to move away from the young man's fight which is centered on dropkicks.

"Judo cannot be separated from my life. It was a tremendous six years at junior high and high school, because all I did was judo. I am not talented like Kiyomiya, or with his flair. My body is not big either"

At the present time, his force is all for his first victory. The same as last year his dreams are big, the setting for "taking the title". However, since the debuts of Yoshiki Inamura and Kinya Okada, he cannot afford to take it easy.

"I think the current Noah juniors are the most exciting of the promotion. You can't compare it to others. We have everything; veterans, technicians, powerful wrestlers and high flyers. Although it is difficult to dig into, if you join that fight you can improve the level of the Noah juniors, and they can go to the top of any group." 

The current GHC Junior champion is Daisuke Harada, who is the leader of RATELS, the current GHC Junior Tag Champions are The Backbreakers, Hajime Ohara and Hitoshi Kumano. There is also Yoshinari Ogawa & YO-HEY, Special4 (Hi69, Minoru Tanaka and Seiya Morohashi), all of whom are expanding with a conflict of initiative. Needless to say that the detail of the matches are woven into the entrance of the Noah born Kotaro Suzuki in September last year, and YO-HEY'S betrayal of RATELS.
Miyawaki is only too aware that it will be a steep road, but he also believes in "soft*" as he has written, and he intends to dig into the front line of the Noah juniors.

*This basically means that he is a young plant who has been planted and is sprouting, but is still quite tender in years, and knows how hard the struggle will be to grow.
