(NOAH) POST MATCH INTERVIEWS: Winter Navigation Night Three ~ 12th December 2018, New Sunpia Tochigi

HI69 & MINORU TANAKA

Tanaka: Lets say it was like a fireball at a holiday barbecue, for us it is not comparable to a bush fire. Hanamaki, Sendai, there are still two more pre-fights, but the fire has become lit today. That is not enough for us. Starting the fire is different here.
Hi69: Those guys want a belt, don't they?
Tanaka: That's true. I don't feel any hot feelings. Ohara said that "Nakajima and Shiozaki who both debuted in 2004, were influenced by that to capture the belt". When it comes to a belt, such motivation is not needed, the problem is Kumano. It is strange that he is not getting passionate at all. Because when I came here for the first time, it was he who I collided with. He's got to get hotter, come on, burn up. Burn up to the extent to which butter is dropped on the barbecue. I used to do that a lot, and got scolded by my wife. Watch out for the butter!

KATSUHIKO NAKAJIMA & GO SHIOZAKI

NAKAJIMA: You can't defeat us just by your violence. It's impossible. If anything, its getting tiresome.
SHIOZAKI: Even if Yuji Hino has entered, nothing has changed. Ah...no, it has not changed anything you do.
NAKAJIMA: Waiting in anticipation to see if those guys will even entertain us
SHIOZAKI: I am entertaining as a champion.

TAKASHI SUGIURA

Q: You continue to overwhelm Kiyomiya in the pre-fight matches, do you get the feeling of chewing at him?
SUGIURA: I don't feel it.
Q: You will end the year in Yokohama?
SUGIURA: I have defended this belt since March of this year, the end of it will be a favorable aspect, and I will not permit it otherwise. I will end it with the belt.
Q: You have defeated six members of the super new generation this year, Kiyomiya will be the last.
SUGIURA: Then it is complete.
Q: In the official match you lost to Kiyomiya by the roll up, will your victory wipe this out?
SUGIURA: He defeated me. "I will win a way so that he cannot stand. KO, 1,2,3 or referee stop? I will finish him with complete overwhelming strength."
Q: In the two remaining matches, is is now just a warm-up?
SUGIURA: Only not to injure him because of the title match.
