[Results] 1/14/2009 @ Okayama Orange Hall

- Kazuki Sendo, as expected, went to 0-4 in his entry series to join NEW FORCE, as he faced Naoyuki Watanabe. As usual, Sendo put forth his best effort,and threw everything he had at Watanabe early on. However, The gap in experience would be shown, as Watanabe picked him apart en route to finishing him with the Dragon Suplex hold six-minutes in... Watanabe reminded Sendo what was ahead, as his last test would be facing NEW FORCE leader, Akira Takayoshi tomorrow in Osaka... But again, Watanabe reiterated that winning wasn't what was important, and told him to do his best.

- In the second match, Etsuya Kawachi and Hidaka Kamon of NEW FORCE took on the difficult challenge of heavyweights Hiroaki Nakata and Go Taniguchi in an interesting battle between heavyweight and jr. heavyweight teams. The NEW FORCE team had trouble early on, facing the size advantage of Nakata and Taniguchi. However, using their speed and cunning, they were able to mount an offense. But each time they began building momentum, they would be quickly thwarted. In the end however, a miscommunication between Nakata and Go allowed Kawachi to flash cradle Taniguchi with the GTK for the three count! After the match, Taniguchi, still surprised by the loss, praised Kawachi's technical ability. As always, Kawachi boasted that he could train Taniguchi to become a better technician, only by enrolling in “Kawachijuku.” Taniguchi seemed open to the idea, until Kawachi revealed that there was a 2,000,000 Yen (25,000 USD) enrollment fee. Go left the ring in stunned silence...
