NEWS AND NOTES

10/30/2002- K-NESS does have a new mask, not sure if he will take it off for matches or not. Check his profile for a photo.

10/29/2002- Guerilla live results up. They ran 3 T2P vs. Japan matches...with Japan winning all 3. CMAX fought Syachi style for the opener, even doing the corner pose. There was a Do FIXER talk live after the final match.

10/28/2002-  Today's results up, and holy hell did a lot go down.
--Ryo Saito joined Do FIXER after the opening match, however Darkness said he was dissolving his team with Dragon Kid and that 2 Dragons were not needed in Toryumon.
--Yasushi Kanda held his retirement match, and for it was accompanied by his original M2K mates, Mochi and Susumu. They wore their original jackets, rode their kickboards, and came out to G.W.D. After the short exhibition, which included interference with old M2K signature spots, Ultimo Dragon came out and convinced Kanda to stay as a referee and be vice-Principal. Magnum came out, and said with Kanda, M2K would also be retired, and he retired the name of M2K. This is where the fun started.
--After match 4....Magu once again invited Ryo to join his unit. Ryo said he already joined Do FIXER. At this time, Kness came out and shook hands with Magu. Turns out...Kness was a spy sent by Magnum, and in reality, the former M2K is now Do FIXER. Darkness renamed himself to K-NESS (possibly masked again) and danced with Magu. Genki and Susumu expressed concern. Magu also invited Mochi to join...Ryo was welcomed back to Sekigun, and Genki possibly as well (this is where the confusion begins) Susumu is up in the air and may go either way. Mochi said a final conclusion to all this would be decided at the November Korakuen show.
--Owashi was upset with Mochi after his match, saying he never gave up. He Nodowa'd Mochi, thus setting up their feud to start
--SUWA entered the CMAX vs. ItaConne feud in a big way, helping CMAX gain their first pinfall win.
--The next Korakuen was decided to also have CIMA/SUWA/Fujii vs. Milano/YOSSINO/Yassini for the UWA tag belts, with Kanda as a referee,  and Stalker vs. X.
So basically this will all lead to a central axis of Sekigun vs. Do FIXER and CMAX vs. ItaConne, with some potentially explosive matches for the year end Korakuen shows. There is potential for a huge pay-off for all this mammoth WTFing that is going on right now. I've updated K-NESSs' profile, however I am halting on updating any others until I know for sure what the hell is going on.

10/27/2002- A couple more notes from the T2P show. M2K invited Anthony W. Mori after they intruded on the tag match. He turned them down. Ultimo cancelled his October Mexico tour, saying he would go in December. His comeback tour looks like this now: 11/17-Epic in US vs. Super Dragon. Then in Mexico in the 1st week of December. He will also wrestle during the Mochi/D. Kid Mexico tour, on the same show as the Young Dragons Cup finals. His first official match in Japan will take place (as I mentioned last night) on one of the year-ending Korakuen Hall shows. Mochi came to the ring after the SUWA vs. Owashi match, and more furthering of that situation was done, perhaps leading to a 3 way, finally. Iwasa also was forced to cancel off the show due to injury, not known what kind.  Here is the announced lineup for tonights' Korakuen show.

10/27/2002- Full T2P results up. Crazy MAX intruded after the opener, assaulted everyone. Milano suffered injuries to his leg. TARU was in the gimmick of a gang leader, as if to be a bully to Oyanageis' student. After the Syachihoko match, the Black Syachihoko Machine 1 & 2 arrived (Darkness Syachis?). Everyone left silently. Ultimo booked a Syachi vs Syachi mask match for the December T2P show. It wil be all 6, and two will lose their masks. He also said he will wrestle on one of the 3 December Korakuen shows, if not all. Condotti Shuji cancelled off the show, no reason was given. Crazy MAX intruded after the main and assaulted everyone in sight. The Italian Connection will be wrestling tomorrow night in Korakuen. Magnum and Milano left together......

10/26/2002- News flash for T2P tonight starting at around 11PM eastern time. Added to tomorrow nights' Japan show is Mochi/Araken/Ryo vs. Magu/Genki/Susumu.

10/22/2002- Big Kobe show today, Darkness Dragons' unit is called "Do FIXER". Ryo is still considering joining, as is Anthony W. Mori. Ryo said he would talk it over with Mochi. Mochi shook hands with Darkness. Currently it is only Darkness and Dragon Kid. On 1/25/2003 (This date is fixed from earlier, where I said 24th, Sorry!) there will be a huge All Star show, featuring wrestlers from Toryumon, MPro, Osaka Pro, K-DOJO, JWP, All Japan Women, and WMF. It will take place in Korakuen Hall. This may also have WWE involvement.....

10/20/2002- Today's results up. It seems Chocoflake K-ICHI made an appearance at a Yasushi Kanda talk live last week. He asked about Kanda' retirement and where it would be.....

10/19/2002- Today's results up.

10/19/2002- As most of you know by now, Ultimo Dragon will be appearing for EPIC Pro Wrestling on 11/17 in LA. His opponent was supposed to be announced today but they are pulling the old "Show up and see" deal. I would wager Vampiro....Check back in the morning for results!

10/15/2002- Note out of the Sekigun blog today, Darkness Dragons' new unit will receive it's name on 10/22 in Kobe. The November VamoAmi will air on 11/23 and will cover the 10/28 Korakuen and 10/22 Kobe shows.

10/13/2002- Today's results up, nothing out of the ordinary.

10/13/2002- Today's results up. The 11/8 Michinoku Pro match that CMAX is participating in was changed, it is now CIMA/SUWA/Fujii vs. Curry Man/Hayashi (Rice) Man/Jodie Fleisch.

10/12/2002- Today's results up.

10/9/2002- Lot is going on right now in terms of upcoming alignment shakeups. I will try and get everyone up to speed now. M2K will more than likely cease to exist sometime soon. Magu has said the name is meaningless now, since all but one original member are gone. They are currently actively recruiting Ryo. I see a good possibility of Noriaki Kawabata, since he has the Bukoh Dojo punk thing going that Choco and Mochi did. Mochi is upset at the current state of Sekigun, hinting at possibly leaving. He has been aligned with Kanda as of late. Darkness Dragon has come out and stated he wants to form his own faction, and his first invite went out to Ryo. His group could conceivably could be the new M2K (MAKOTO, Mochi, and Kanda M x 2 + K). A more likely scenario sees him and Dragon Kid form something (although Dragon Kid is poised as the new Sekigun leader....) Anthony W Mori is involved somehow with all this, despite leading his own faction in T2P (Royal Brothers). If he is anything, he will be a new Sekigun member, and will feud with Ryo after he lands where he is going (whether it be with Kness or with Magu2K). An even crazier (and not out of the question scenario) sees a total alignment shift, with former friends of Magu siding with him (Araken, Shisa, Genki) and Dragon Kid leading the new Sekigun with Kness, Ultimo, Mori and Ryo, while Mochi reforms the original M2K with Kanda and Susumu. CMAX, having effectively been buried after the complete defeat in the feud with the  ItaConne, seems to be the only one remaining unchanged, I would prefer to see CIMA head for Sekigun along with Fujii, while TARU sides with Mochi in a Bukoh Dojo faction and SUWA stays lone wolf, but that is just me wishing out loud. What with the C + R clothing line CMAX is tied in with, they won't be going anywhere any time soon. There are many many options out there, especially if you factor in all the T2P guys who are just out there as T2P Sekigun (Iwasa, Doi, Ogawauchi, Owashi, etc). The upcoming 10/27 T2P and 10/28 Japan shows could both be huge in terms of future direction. The only certainty I see is a Mori/Ryo feud.  In other notes....Happy birthday to Anthony W. Mori, who turned 26 today. Condotti Shuji will be unveiling a new finisher called the Hurricane Mixer (or thereabouts) in the near future.

10/8/2002- The Italian Connection invaded the Toryumon Japan ring for the first time today, once again downing Crazy MAX.  Owashi and SUWA had a long microphone argument, ending with Owashi appealing for (and getting) a rematch between the 2 at the T2P show in  Differ Ariake on 10/27. Darkness' second was Dragon Kid, Ryos' second was Anthony W. Mori. M2K tried to interfere and assault Darkness, Kid, Anthony, and President Okamura ran them off and the match continued. Darkness talked about starting his own faction, and invited Ryo, Anthony, and (I think) Dragon Kid. Mochi came out at this time and was visibly upset with at least Ryo, and scolded him on the microphone. Magnum and M2K came out after the main event, blaming C-MAX for remaining unable to defeat the outsiders. Magnum said he would like to dance in the 6 sided ring, and it seems M2K vs. ItaConne has also been set for 10/27.

10/7/2002- Happy belated birthday to Berlinetta Boxer, who celebrated on the 5th.

10/6/2002- Today's results up, again nothing out of the ordinary. Standard ItaConne interference in the main.

10/5/2002- Today's results up.

10/4/2002- Today's results up. Magnum is out to recruit Ryo Saito into M2K. Magu said recently M2K was meaningless since only one original member was left, perhaps hinting at a name change. Late happy birthday greetings to Second Doi, who turned 22 today.

10/3/2002- The annual December Mexico tour was announced. This year, Masaaki Mochizuki and Dragon Kid will be participating. The tour will take place from 12/10-12/15 and will contain the usual site-seeing and show attending. Cost this year is slightly up, coming in at �198,000. The main attraction for this will be the show with the Young Dragons Cup, which will have participation from Ultimo, Mochi, and Dragon Kid.
