Ayako Hamada wins Battlefield tournament


Sendai Girls had their first anniversary show July 22 at Sendai SunPlaza. There were 2396 fans in attendance. This featured the final of the Battlefield tournament. The opener had Ayane Mizumura over Chisako Kanari with a diving guillotine legdrop at 9:41. Mizumura was making her Sendai Girls debut but she worked for GAEA in 2004. Then Mizuki Endo, Tsubasa Kuragaki & Kyoko Kimura defeated KAORU, Toshie Uematsu & Yurie Kaneko when Endo used a diving BM crash on Kaneko at 18:02. The first semi final of the Battlefield tournament had Ayako Hamada over Aja Kong with the AP Cross at 16:05.





The second Battlefield tournament semi final had Meiko Satomura over Dynamite Kansai with a crossface at 9:37. Satomura posted on her blog on the Sendai Girls website that she got her bell rung by a Kansai kick to the jaw. I don't think she remembers much of that match after that. She's OK though. Next was a three veterans vs four rookies match. The vets win with Manami Toyota, Devil Masami & Mayumi Ozaki over Akari Okuda, Sachiko Kanari, Ayune Mizumura & Chisako Kanari when Ozaki used the Fire Ballet on Mizumura at 13:15. In the Battlefield tournament final, Ayako Hamada won over Meiko Satomura with the AP Cross at 18:57. Satomura was in tears after the match and wants a rematch with Ayako. What did you expect? The next show is Sept. 8 at Zepp Sendai. It remains to be seen if Satomura will change the promotion's direction. Some fans are eternally hopeful. I'm a little more cynical. She's going to have to show me something different.
