(NOAH) POST MATCH PROMOS: STAY TOGETHER FOREVER! DAY 1 (18th July 2020, Korakuen Hall)

YOSHIKI INAMURA

"Even today I beat Okada! Like I said last time, I broke down and crushed everything that he is good at! I took all he had to give! I will win again and again!"

KATSUHIKO NAKAJIMA

Q: This was the first time you stood in front of an audience with the red belt? How has it been restarting the box office? 

NAKAJIMA: Finally this day has come. It has been a long time since there was an audience, I enjoyed it. 

Q: Where you moved by showing off the belt? 

NAKAJIMA: Yeah. After all, the fact that an event was even held today is proof that Noah ad the HOMES have worked hard, isn't it? That is why I was welcomed today, and I was proud to say "Welcome back". Even though the Corona is still swirling around, I want to say "Welcome Home" to the HOMIES who have come today. 

Q: Do you want to cherish this circumstance for that? 

NAKAJIMA: One by one, each event will lead to Noah's future, and although I think it is going to be a little different from how it used to be, I think Noah will accelerate won't it? 

Q: Naturally, having the red belt will be one of the driving forces? 

NAKAJIMA: I will accelerate event further with this GHC National Belt. Keep an eye on me. 

FULL THROTTLE 

(Atsushi Kotoge, Seiki Yoshioka and Hajime Ohara)

KOTOGE: Wow, what a day! What a day! Damn! Finally there was an audience! After all, I am the leader, and so as leader...

*YOSHIOKA interrupts

YOSHIOKA: You keep saying you are the leader, well it's disturbing everything! We should think about it more and discuss and decide who the leader is! Not rush into who the leader is by yourself! 

KOTOGE (half ignoring him): I can do it properly 

HAJIME OHARA separates them as a fight threatens to break out

OHARA: STOP IT! We need to end this! If we continue to fight like this, then there will never be an end to it!! As it has come to this, lets have a play off to decide the leader of FULL THROTTLE! Lets fight and decide the leader that way! 

KOTOGE:...You are right, we are professional wrestlers! I think we should make a proper decision on the undetermined leader problem. 

YOSHIOKA: It seems to be a wrestler like decision. 

KOTOGE: Will it be enough that the strongest guy in our team will be the leader? 

YOSHIOKA: I don't have any objection in that case

KOTOGE (leaves while saying): I will win!! Everyone, follow me!! 

YOSHIOKA: "Follow me!" That's bad as a leader!

OHARA: Next time the FULL THROTTLE engine will go full throttle to make a leader decision in a playoff battle! The next time the engine will be fully engaged! Full Throttle!

DAISUKE HARADA, TADASUKE & YO-HEY

YO-HEY: Well, tomorrow the three of us will have title matches, and so as everyone saw the elimination match with STINGER was an important match that will carry the momentum over to tomorrow's event. In addition, that we won over STINGER and our former team mate is big. Well, I'm the one who took the 1,2,3...3 count from Kotaro Suzuki, so it was perfect. Today I may be stupid in feeling like a King, but I will be prepared tomorrow. Enjoy it Kotaro Suzuki. Best wishes. 

HARADA: Okay HAYATA. After all, you can't do anything by yourself. You can't do anything unless you hide in Ogawa or Suzuki's shadows. Tomorrow, I will give you a taste of more pain. Look forward to it.

THE SUGIURA ARMY

(Kaz Hayashi, Kendo Kashin, Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai and Kazuyashi Sakuraba)

KASHIN: Since we won against Kongoh today, so it has been determined for the Kongoh produce on the 24th to be a LIDET entertainment

NOSAWA: Yeah, I have a plan...

KASHIN: Then it's decided, the LIDET Army for the LIDET produce. 

NOSAWA: Sugiura Army, Sugiura Army...Kaz is being very quiet about it.

KAZ: I realised it was probably better not to say too much and that to say nothing was better...

NOSAWA: But its going to be fun. Boss...

SUGIURA: You are young, and I want you do to those kind of things (i.e. the shoulder tackle battle) from the start

KASHIN (walks off saying): Kongoh should add Takao Omori and Masao Inoue to be "Takaoh" and "Masaoh". 

KAZ: He's gone 

SUGIURA: Just say it...

NOSAWA: That is his personality, but for a team there is no momentum, but still the condition is good and everyone is having fun. 

SAKURABA: I don't really know what happened, but at the end Kongoh and I stopped Kashin from going off (i.e. outside the iron railing) (laughs). 

NOSAWA: That's his personality type. Well, we defeated the six man Kongoh, but there are only five of us at the moment, so I will hire one person temporarily. I will hire Hideki Suzuki next time again. 

SUGIURA: Re-employment? 

NOSAWA: Temporary re-employment to the Sugiura Army next time. Not to Team LIDET. The Sugiura Army. I did the LIDET pose today, but it's The Sugiura Army. 

SUGIURA (to the journalists): Any questions? 

Q: How did you find the atmosphere now that the customers have returned? 

SUGIURA: I didn't have time to savor it (laughs) because of someone (Kashin). But, I think that as they can't speak, their applause is big. 

NOSAWA: The applause was good today 

SUGIURA: At the age of fifty I was given the title of leader, but that's the first tackle battle that I have been punished in (laughs). Usually an energetic youngster goes first, right?

NOSAWA: I will do a limited tackle battle next time (laughs)

SUGIURA: Do it for about 30 minutes (laughs). Well, I still can't lose to Kitamiya and the young guys. 

NOSAWA: Is it okay for Kaz to be tiresome all by himself? 

KAZ: This is the first time I that I have teamed as The Sugiura Army with Sugiura. Isn't Sugiura showing me the top? That's it, I'm a wrestler, I'm not going to stop. Seeing Sugiura working hard, I want to do the same.

NOSAWA: You didn't do your best as a wrestler in WRESTLE-1...

KAZ: That is because there were various things! (Laughs)

SUGIURA: I don't know if that's a cohesive summary! (laughs).

THE M ALLIANCE

(Naomichi Marufuji and Keiji Mutoh)

MUTOH: First of all, Shiozaki is strong? 

MARUFUJI: He's strong. Strong. 

MUTOH: I met him for the first time in the ring today, and fought him for the first time. From the floor, that guy, he lifted me up and he threw me down. I haven't had the experience of being thrown by a Japanese wrestler like that so much. 

MARUFUJI: There was also a part of me that wanted you, as an opponent, to experience Shiozaki's chops, but next time. 

MUTOH: Next time. Before that there is Kiyomiya. Well, I'm talking vaguely, I have had a good year and I have a dream. After all, I have my sights on the GHC championship belt, and it has been a while since I have been in a title match. It's kind of a virtual championship with Kiyomiya. 

MARUFUJI: You were a champion last year

MUTOH: Oh, is that so? Well, that's because I prolong by making young guys into extracts and eating them, and after that its the customers. After all, the applause of the customers is life for a wrestler, and as long as I can bathe in it, I feel like I'm not old.

MARUFUJI: I felt like I was really alive as there were customers. I can't ask you about the GHC as I got the impression that you were aiming for it (rough)

MUTOH: No, we are in the same "M Alliance", and I'm okay with it

MARUFUJI: Of course

MUTOH: You go get it, so when I am in good shape and condition, the two of us can compete for it.

MARUFUJI: It's one of the reasons for me 

MUTOH: A youngster doing it before me is okay, I can do it have my own self assessment as to whether I can do it or not. 

MARUFUJI: Maybe you have been rejuvenated due to Kiyomiya? He's sewn the seeds of that himself.

MUTOH: That is what youth needs to grow. I put out all sorts of things today, but that growth is a threat. To be honest, I have a lot of things to bring out, and some of which I can't even bring out. That's why I fight to the limit, and that is an advantage to a wrestler, and it's worth doing, but before all of that I need to get another PCR test done again by Noah (note, this is a the Coronavirus spit test)

MARUFUJI: Yes

MUTOH: I won't be able to do it unless its negative

MARUFUJI: Mutoh's spit came to the brim quickly (laughs(

MUTOH: Kaz was next to me, but mine was quicker. I'm fast because I am old. 

MARUFUJI: It's evidence of being young 

Q: Marufuji, what was that last move you did? 

MARUFUJI: Nowadays, there are many two-stage knee kicks used around the world. Some people go from the front, others from the back, I didn't think there were many people who would do it from the side. Furthermore, if your skill is very good, you will win with certainty and it was a good opportunity to bring out that technique, and I have a track record of defeating the champion and if it is the case I can do it against a Japanese person, then it is the case of using it against a gaijin of 2m, 3m and 4m. I am aiming for such pro wrestling, and I have a good weapon, and so there will be no complaints? I have also been in Noah for the last 20 years...20 years. He might have gone away and then come back, and worked hard to regain trust and I honestly admit that he's unaffected by it, and he has strength and youth. But, I have been carrying Noah on my back for the last twenty years, and this year it will be 20 years. 20 year anniversary. It would have been nice to be champion, but if not me, who else? How? I told you without stuttering. 

MUTOH: My heart is pained to hear that, I am always going somewhere (rough)

MARUFUJI: I haven't told you (laughs)

MUTOH: Well, today Jurina Matsui also joined the "M Alliance"

MARUFUJI: She has already become a member

MUTOH: However, we want to become a team that shows people in our match around is that they want to enter, so be sure to become the champion. 

MARUFUJI: There is one last thing I want to ask you Mutoh, it's not the "M Alliance" but the "M'S Alliance". That's all!

GO SHIOZAKI

"Naomichi Marufuji...OK. Let's do a title match for the GHC Heavyweight. But you are "Real Noah?" "I AM NOAH" that is real, there is nothing fake in that. "I am NOAH". 

KAITO KIYOMIYA

"Keiji Mutoh, for the depth of your heart, I can only thank you. Last time was 3 on 3, next was 2 on 2, both were disappointing matches, but there will be a singles match. That is why on August 10th at the Yokohama Bunka Gym, I must enter your domain. I will stand on the same stage as you in Yokohama to become the number one in the pro wrestling world"
