[10/18/2008] FURY News & Notes

- Okazaki and Kaiju were successful in retaining their PWC Jr. Heavyweight Tag titles against Nansei's Wataru Yamada & Keisuke Rongai. However, the two Nansei warriors took the villainous duo to the limit, as the match lasted an astoninishing FORTY-FIVE minutes, before finally Kaiju finished Yamada with a Diving Body press.

Drama continued after the match, as Kaiju got into a verbal argument with Nansei Ace GALLEON, who demanded a title match against Okazaki and Kaiju. When Kaiju asked which "green boy" (rookie) would aid him, GALLEON revealed his partner would be FURY's own JET JAGUAR! The champion's verbally agreed to the match, but the match has yet to be officially signed off on by President Nishida.
