(NOAH) POST MATCH INTERVIEWS: SUNNY VOYAGE 2024 (KDDI Ishin Hall, Yamaguchi - Monday, March 11th)

REAL (SAXON HUXLEY, TIMOTHY THATCHER & SHUHEI TANIGUCHI)

(The three of them enter in a line with their hands on each others shoulders)

THATCHER: When the three of us get together, it's the wisdom of Manjushri​*. I'm not saying that we are the smartest, but Saxon and I are the ones who got the most points in the Victory Challenge, so we should be able go challenge for the belts without any more matches! Now that Big Shu and Big Sax are all together, what should we do now? We're going to aim for the top! WHY? Because REAL is No.1!

Notes

The wisdom of Manjushri​: Manjushri is a Bodhisattva who wields a fiery sword in his right hand and a Lotus flower in his left hand. The lotus represents the blossoming of wisdom, while the sword represents transcendent wisdom which represents duality and the cutting down of ignorance. 

TEAM NOAH (Atsushi Kotoge & Hi69)

KOTOGE: Nice, nice, nice. Thank you. 

HI69: HEY, OWADA! Naturally it was exciting for you to appear in the tag league, right? But, at the Yokohama Budokan Elimination, Owada, I'm going after you. I'll show you the die hard spirit. The die hard soul that you don't have. 

RYOHEI OIWA

"Okay, right. Let's keep this momentum going until the GHC Tag title match!"

JAKE LEE

"I think this is my first singles with a Mexican wrestler, well, it is my first time with Wagner, who has suddenly made history, so I have to prepare well. He is a champion, and has nothing to hold back, and even though I think he's unlike any other type, I need to get used to it. Wagner, let the world know that when your name is said, mine will come up too". 

KAITO KIYOMIYA

"OKAY! In the pre-matches, Ryohei and I will go without dropping a single one"

DAGA

"I am the greatest champion. YO-HEY, I'm going to break your back, so pay for your wheelchair now."

JACK MORRIS

"Kaito Kiyomiya, you and I have a lot of history in Noah. You were my debut opponent, and early last year I challenged you for the GHC Heavyweight. You haven't forgotten, have you that the last time we fought for the tag team titles, AG and I entered the ring as champions, and we were still the champions after the match. The result in Yokohama is going to be the same."

MASA KITAMIYA, SHUJI KONDO & MANABU SOYA

KITAMIYA: As I said in the ring, there's no time to look down. We'll restart again today.

(Kitamiya leaves)

KONDO: Well, first of all, the tag league has finished and we didn't get any results, but I think there was some kind of growth, so I hope something happens again. 

(He shakes hands with Soya)

SOYA: I'm the one who should be thanking you 

KONDO: Also, in today's match, MIYAWAKI! You haven't changed at all! What were you doing while I was in the tag league? Has something changed, asshole? In fact, as my opponent, you showed a lot of hostility to me. Either you train again, or you break up with me and become my rival.

(Kondo leaves)

SOYA: I would like to take this opportunity to say just a few words at this time. When I entered pro wrestling, I was a trainee and I made my debut in Muga World Pro Wrestling, and during this period I was indebted to Yutaka Yoshie when I graduated and made my debut. I can't think of words, but I am really hoping that they will come out. Yoshie-san, I pray that your soul may rest in peace. Thank you very much for all your help. (He bows his head).
