NEO held their first show of the new year Jan. 6 at Itabashi Green Hall in front of 138 fans. Usually things are very silly in NEO anyway but believe it or not, there was a marriage proposal in the ring. The NEO Machine Gunz weren't too happy about it which leads some to believe that it's all an angle. Could be but all NEO roads point to their next big show at Kawasaki on Feb. 18. I don't know if any of the silliness would surprise me anymore.
The opener had 15 year old rookie Nagisa Nozaki facing Toshie Uematsu. We all know how Uematsu is and she finished the rookie off with a missile dropkick at 10:48. The second match had Misae Genki over rookie Irod Watanabe with a lariat at 9:12. But first NEO president Koda came to the ring. He asks Emi Motokawa AKA Sakura Emi (pictured) to join him and proceeds to get on one knee and propose marriage. Tanny Mouse & Yuki Miyazaki say that they can't get married without their permisson. Koda objects to that but they tell Emi to think twice. Tanny says Emi can't marry the president of the company. It's too suspicious. He should quit his job first. Koda says that there will be a 7 vs 7 match on the Feb. 18 Kawasaki show with the marriage up for grabs. And if Emi's team wins the match the wedding will take place in the ring on that day. Well, you know what happens with weddings on a wrestling show. From what I understand, they really are getting married so congratulations to the happy couple.
The third match had JWP wrestlers Kayoko Haruyama & Kaori Yoneyama over Tanny Mouse & Bullfight Sora. Haruyama won over Sora with a lariat at 15:35. After the match, Koda recruited the JWP wrestlers to his side for the wedding match. They agreed and then Tanny Mouse recruited Bullfight Sora to her team. Next was Amazing Kong & Kyoko Kimura defeating Kyoko Inoue & Etsuko Mita. Kimura used the Big Boots on Mita for the win at 17:18. After the match, Kimura challenged Mita to a singles match for the Feb. 18 show. Kyoko Inoue said Mita doesn't want to answer right now but she'll think it over.
The main event had Yoshiko Tamura & Ayumi Kurihara defeat Yuki Miyazaki & Haruka Matsuo. Tamura won over Miyazaki with a running elbow at 20:58. Tamura said afterwards that she was very impressed with Kurihara and would like to team with her again on an upcoming JD Star show. Tamura told Koda that she was unhappy with the result of her triple title match with Azumi Hyuga. A tie is not a win and she wants to return the belt. Koda told her not to do that and he wants to set up a rematch with Hyuga on the Kawasaki show. Tamura agreed to wait. So it looks like that will be the main event. Just wanted to mention that NEO has just opened a brand new website & blog so I should be able to get reports on all their shows. The only thing they don't have is pics.
