(NOAH) POST MATCH INTERVIEWS: SUNNY VOYAGE 2023 (Takaoka Ecole, Toyama, Sunday April 9th)

SHUHEI TANIGUCHI

"Okay, now that I have finished the pre-matches, Senior Sugiura is left with Masa Kitamiya at the end of the day, but I am sure that Senior Sugiura will win and at this rate, with this momentum, Senior Sugiura and I will take the tag team titles. Thank you very much".

SAXON HUXLEY

"Sean Legacy, you talk big, but you're nowhere as near good as me, Saxon Huxley. Inamura, have you figured it out yet? I won't stop like this until I have destroyed you all"

ATSUSHI KOTOGE, NINJA MAC, SEIKI YOSHIOKA & ALEJANDRO

ALEJANDRO: Ninja is amazing

KOTOGE: Crazy

YOSHIOKA: Physical ability is dangerous, isn't it? 

NINJA: Pro Wrestling Noah is number one in Japan, and I showed you that Noah's Junior is the best. 

YOSHIOKA: Please translate

ALEJANDRO: Maybe he's saying he loves Noah Junior. There are three or four of us right now, so lets do our best from here on as the Noah Junior regulars. Thank you. 

KOTOGE (when Ninja roars) Oh, crazy

GOOD LOOKING GUYS

(YO-HEY & TADASUKE)

YO-HEY: I fought against Eita in the singles match in Osaka yesterday and lost. Its true that I lost due to the difference in ability, I will admit that. Yoshinari Ogawa and Eita might be the champions, but we have a strong bond and strong teamwork that those two don't have, and strong teamwork...no, there is trust between me and Tadasuke. So definitely, me and Tadasuke will wear the GHC Junior tag belts in Sendai on April 16th.

TADASUKE: We, GLG, will definitely win the GHC Junior Tag belt. We will take it with our power of bond.

KAITO KIYOMIYA

"Thank you. Yesterday in Osaka and today in Takaoka, I got it right in the ring. After this, I will build it up one by one. Sendai is next, and then one by one I will show results. Yo! Let's go!"

HAYATA

"As you can see, I have leeway"

KATSUHIKO NAKAJIMA

"Hey, Jake Lee. What happened, GHC Heavyweight Champion? No matter what the situation is, I'm always in the best condition". 

TAKASHI SUGIURA & SHUHEI TANIGUCHI

SUGIURA (as Taniguchi applauds him as he walks in) Did you win?

TANIGUCHI: Yes, I won

SUGIURA: Two wins in singles in a row. We can do go Sendai in good shape.

Q: You had a single with Kitamiya? 

SUGIURA: There's also the fact that he's local, but he's always tough and strong. Well, I'm also good at being a tough guy.

Q: If local to Takaoka? 

SUGIURA: It's my hometown, starting today. I think I will move my family register* here, and make a triumphant return.

Q: The pre matches are over?

SUGIURA: It's in good shape, isn't it? How about Taniguchi also starting step by step from the beginning of Tohoku? I think he's gradually getting better, so I'm going to take a week off and go to Sendai. Hey? (holds out his hand to Taniguchi)

TANIGUCHI (claps, but does not shake hands): We will definitely win. Okay, we'll definitely win on the 16th!

(Taniguchi goes to the waiting room)

SUGIURA: That guy doesn't shake hands...when you enter the venue from the hotel, you say hello when you first meet in the locker room, don't you? He doesn't. Seriously.

Q: Is this from the Self-Defense Forces* era?

SUGIURA: No, in the Self-Defense Forces, I used to great my superiors. I mean, to my boss (with a salute)...ah, he was my boss actually. He's a higher rank than me. I entered after graduating from High School and worked as a junior, and was in the rank of sergeant, but he entered the wrestling tone from college, so he is one rank higher than sergeant. That's why I have to say hello. I will do that from now on.

Notes

Family Register: Civil registry (Koseki) which contains all records of family members (i.e. birth, deaths, adoptions etc).
