[Results] 10/11/2008 @ Miyako City Gymnasium

- The tour continued in Iwate, and Pro-Wrestling FURY combined with Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON on a "DREAM COLLABORATION." The show opened with FURY President Hiroshi Nishida, along with CRIMSON President Yuki Nomura, who both greeted the fans warmly. Nomura said that tonight was the continuation of a partnership between both companies that will live long into the coming years. He thanked Mr. Nishida for bringing FURY to Iwate, and said they would return the favor by venturing towards the west, with the corporation of Pro-Wrestling FURY sometime in the near future... Before the two could go on, they were intruded upon by BLACKHEARTS members Akuma Toyota and Goro Iijima, who drew loud boos from the local fans. Iijima mocked Nomura immediately, calling him, "soutou" (meaning, "President.") Toyota however got in Nomura's face, and said that even as president, he'd never listen to what he said.

The two turned their attentions to FURY President Nishida, and began to immediately bully him around. Just as Nomura tried to intervene, TAKU and Mastodon Fukuda made a mad dash to the ring to uncharacteristically save Mr. Nishida. The two heel tendems got face to face, screaming obscenities to one another. Ring boys from both sides eventually separated the two teams, making for a very hectic start to tonight's show...

- The first match of the night saw a ten-man battle royal, featuring five stars of FURY, and five stars of CRIMSON. Company solidarity between both FURY and CRIMSON wrestlers became immediately evident. The first elimination came rather quickly as Kinniku Kamen Nisei faced off against Hiroshi Kuroki. Nisei appeared to have eliminated Kuroki after throwing him off the top rope. However, Kuroki managed to hang on, and took Nisei by surprise with a springboard Thesz Press to pin Nisei's shoulders to the mat for the first elimination! Next out was CRIMSON rookie Shuji Kawashima, who suffered the wrath of Otsuo Kayusa's German Suplex hold. Both organizations continued to band together until this point, as Daisuke Iwata "accidentally" struck Nakata with a dropkick, sending him tumbling onto the apron... It wasn't until Nakata pulled himself up that Iwata revealed it was in fact, NOT an accident by knocking Nakata off with a HARD elbow to the jaw. Loyalties broke down quickly, with it becoming every man for himself. The best example saw Otsuo Kayusa being eliminated by his own STRONG RIDERS member, Kenichiro Hujikawa, who speared him through the ropes onto the floor. Hujikawa in fact was on a tear, as he scored a second elimination after using an elevated crab hold to force Hiroshi Kuroki to submit. But mere moments after Kuroki tapped out, Iwata struck, and dumped Hujikawa over the top rope... Next out was CRIMSON's Kazuki Takagi, who was knocked out after taking Toshiro Noguchi's Thunder Hammer. The match came down to three men: Noguchi, Murata, and Iwata. Noguchi and Murata attempted to band together to face UPRISER'Z's Iwata. The strategy proved effective early on, until Murata accidentally struck Noguchi with an elbow, causing an argument to break out. Iwata took advantage, and caught Noguchi with a high knee to the back of the head, sending Noguchi stumbling over the top rope for the elimination... WIth Iwata and Murata left, the two wasted no time in tearing into each other. Both men nearly scored ring outs towards the end, with both barely escaping elimination. Towards the end, both men traded quick near falls, before Murata finally caught Iwata by surprise with a Frankensteiner, holding Iwata down just long enough for a three count!

- In the second match, Americans from both Pro-Wrestling FURY and Pro-Wrestling CRIMSON clashed, as NEW FORCE's C. Bones faced BLACKHEARTS member Jake Bishop. The bigger and stronger Bishop dominated the early going, using his clobbering style of brawling to subdue the IHC Champion. However, technique would soon win out, as C. Bones made his comeback using sharp kicks and elbows. The tide continued to turn during the short match, with the two tearing into one another at a break-neck pace. Bishop eventually went for an Iron Claw slam, only for Bones to counter with a flying jujigatame, which eventually transitioned into a triangle choke! Towards the end, Bones ripped into the stubborn Texan with more kicks, before catching him in the Peruvian Necktie. When it became clear Bishop wasn't going to submit, referee Akinori Fuwa stepped in and stopped the match...

- The rivalry between ATSUKA and CRIMSON's Millennium S.K. continued in Iwate tonight, as CHAOTICS clashed with the renments of MILLENNIUM STARS. ATSUKA and S.K. started the match off against one another, and impressed the Iwate fans with their seamless exchanges. After the two hit a stalemate, they tagged out to their respective partners, bringing in YAKUTA and SLAYER. YAKUTA held nothing back against the stoic monster, and tried to put a dent in him with kenka kicks, but to no avail. SLAYER eventually goozled YAKUTA by the throat, and hurled him into the corner, where he unloaded on him with hammering blows to the side of the head. YAKUTA eventually fought back, and managed to subdue SLAYER long enough to bring back in ATSUKA, who used his speed to maintain the advantage... However, interference from S.K. brought ATSUKA's momentum to a halt, giving the STARS control once again. S.K. took great pleasure in mocking ATSUKA, causing ATSUKA to fire back in a spurt of passion. All four men kept the match at a swift pace, leaving little time to rest. In addition, near falls were traded from both sides, including ATSUKA nearly cradling SLAYER with a victory roll for a 2.9 count! Eventually, the match saw interference from Ryoma Inoue, who cracked a microphone across S.K's head. ATSUKA, unknowingly, took advantage by spiking S.K. on his head with the AT-Z, giving CHAOTICS the win... After the match, Ryoma Inoue and Ikuji Royama hit the ring, and continued their assault on S.K. SLAYER tried to save him, but he was subdued with a hard whack of Inoue's microphone... S.K. finally received help from the most unlikely of source, as ATSUKA and YAKUTA returned to the ring to chase Inoue and Royama off. Even more shocking, ATSUKA gave S.K. something of a motivational speech, telling him to "stop getting embarrassed by that clown!" S.K. however refused further help from ATSUKA, and spat in his eye on his way out of the ring...

- Fans were in for a treat in the next match, as members of mushozoku faced OVERTHROW in a highly enjoyable six-man junior showcase. The match primarily revolved around OVERTHROW's Kaisen Tiger, facing fellow masked man Jet Jaguar. Kaisen struggled early on, showing his lack of experience against Jaguar, who he himself isn't too far in his career. However, the difference was still there, as Jaguar eventually soundly defeated Tiger after the Spiral Bomb. In addition, there were some thrilling encounters between Yoshihiro Shimoda and CRIMSON's C-2 Openweight Champion Naoki Daishi. Akahito Yamada also looked good, facing off against his fellow Kazuma Fujita Dojo graduates. After the match, Yamada said it was always exciting to face FURY wrestlers, and wonders what his life would be like had he continued to wrestle in FURY... However, Yamada said he never regretted joining CRIMSON, and said that when the two sides are facing off, he will always side with CRIMSON. Jaguar also had some kind words for Kaisen Tiger, and said he would continue to follow his career, and hopes to have the chance to face him again in the ring someday.

- The OKINAWA SPEED STARS reunited tonight in Iwate to face the one-night team of UPRISER'Z member Shin Kaiju and CRIMSON members Ikuji Royama and Ichiyo Tatsuko. The match saw some early brawling, with the BLOOD×GUTS team taking the initiative. However, the SPEED STARS teamwork would be too much to deny. Eventually, the F-MAX Jr. Heavyweight Champion pulled out his "Michelada" Cobra Clutch Triangle to force Tatsuko to submit. After the match, Ota and Saigo gave some nice photo-ops by standing side-by-side while holding up their respective Jr. Heavyweight crowns... Shirai however stood in the middle, looking left out. To remedy this, both Ota and Saigo placed their belts across Shirai's shoulders, allowing him to be photographed...

- NEW FACE clashed with members of CRIMSON's seikigun next in a big match up, with teams led by Akira Takayoshi and CRIMSON President Yuki Nomura respectively. Both teams looked strong early on, with everyone connecting with offense. However, the chemistry and teamwork of the NEW FORCE team allowed them to seize control for a good chunk of the middle portion. However, the beloved seikigun team eventually came back, with all four members assuming their authority in the match. Fans were paticularly into the exchanges between Akira and Nomura. However, the two pillars continued to hit one stalemate after another, showing matching strength. Eventually, the inexperience of Kenjiro Amagawa was exploited, as Naoyuki Watanabe pinned his shoulders to the mat with a Dragon Suplex hold, giving NEW FORCE the hard fought victory... After the match, Akira and Nomura clasped hands in a sign of unity. Nomura admitted that the better team won tonight, but said that the next time they were in the same ring, the outcome would be different.

- The F-MAX Unified Heavyweight Champion clashed with the C-1 Heavyweight Champion indirectly, as members of mushozoku faced CRIMSON's MOUJA faction. To the delight of the crowd, NAKAI and Seiji Ebisawa started the match off. Unfortunately, neither were able to get control, forcing them to tag out. Despite being beaten in strength, MOUJA made up for it in the end as Takayuki Ariwa used a HARD rolling lariat on Go Taniguchi to get the win, which nearly took his head off in the process. After the match, Seiji Ebisawa taunted NAKAI, saying the strength of the C-1 Heavyweight Champion was stronger tonight...

- We finally came to what was to be the night's main event, pitting Japan's two most unruly teams against one another in the ring... The match was indeed unruly, as both teams tore into one another the minute the gong sounded. Even with the held of TWO referees, nothing could be done to keep both teams from rampaging all over the Miyako City Gymnasium. And despite several restarted counts, referee Edd Sasaki was forced to count out BOTH teams, resulting in a double ring out just three minutes into the match... Fans immediately booed the result... The four men eventually stopped their fighting and returned to the ring. All four men suddenly erupted into laughter and began shaking hands, revealing that they threw the match out intentionally, causing even more boos from the crowd. Toyota mocked the fans, and said they'd never get to see this "dream match." TAKU mockingly thanked the fans for their support, and closed the show... Or so he tried, as Akira Takayoshi, Yuki Nomura, Naoyuki Watanabe and Nobuyori Shimizu returned to the ring! Nomura said that they wouldn't allow these four to tarnish this event with their mockery, and ordered an impromptu eight-man tag match! The fans were given an incredible eight-man tag match close the show. The heel team dominated early going, using every short cut imaginable. However, the babyfaces rallied with the support of the fans. In a thrilling closer, CRIMSON's own Nobuyori Shimizu used his Thunder Fire Powerbomb to score the winning fall over Mastodon Fukuda!

- The babyfaces ran off the heels afterwards. The two figure-heads shook hands once more, thanking each other for the other's help. Akira promised the Iwate fans that they'd return next year.
