Let’s give it up for Chris Brookes making it to 18 years in the wrestling business! Let’s give it up to Baka Gaijin + Friends for making it to three years too. The third anniversary for this island of misfit toys was held away from the usual home of ARENA Shimokitazawa. They went for a bigger room this time by going to Shinjuku FACE but still held the show without a ring to keep it as the genuine article.
The main event was Brookes taking on someone who was kept a mystery to the fans until it was time for his entrance. It was Zack Sabre Jr.! The name of the bout was “A Match Of Hate?” and the two showed no mercy to each other by fighting amongst the crowd. Sabre’s close friend Antonio Honda had no choice but to do the rubber band spot to him while Brookes also dropped a child onto Sabre’s prone body afterwards. Sabre got some of his own licks in by Back Body Dropping Brookes onto the venue’s counter before bringing him back to the centre of the room to further pick Brookes apart. The two continued to go back and forth until Brookes gave Sabre the Praying Mantis Bomb and the bell rang to signal a time limit draw.
The action didn’t stop there because after the match MAO interrupted Brookes on the microphone and started arguing with him. Mr. Bueno ran down to bring peace but was left insulted when Sabre told him to fuck off. Everyone then started telling each other to fuck off until MAO & Bueno agreed to fight Brookes & Sabre, starting an impromptu bonus tag match! More chaotic brawling followed and screeched to a halt when Sabre tripped over the mat and hurt his knee. Honda got on the microphone to tell a Gongitsune joke only for MAO to stop him. MAO then summoned all of the other wrestlers on the show to lead a train attack at Sabre seated in the remains of the front row. That ended when Minoemon stopped himself in front of Sabre to tell him he was Minoru Suzuki in disguise! The two hugged and launched a counter attack on everyone, Brookes included. Their rampage was stopped with a fire extinguisher attack from Takagi Sanshirobo, which then resulted in Takayuki Ueki & Munetatsu Nakamura entering the room as cops. They suddenly held everyone at gunpoint threatening to shut the show down. MAO disarmed Nakamura but tragedy struck during the scramble to get the other gun from Ueki. Brookes succeeded in grabbing the gun but accidentally shot Sabre in the process! Brookes cradled the wounded Sabure in his arms until Sabre fainted. Out of desperation, Brookes charged the other team only to get knocked out by MAO’s Hurricane Kick. Bueno then threw Takeshi Masada on top of Brookes and ordered all of the other wrestlers to form a pyramid for him to climb. From the top of the pyramid, Bueno thanked the fans and jumped off to hit a Diving Body Press onto Masada and Brookes. He then pinned Brookes for the victory. After the match Brookes revived Sabre by pouring a can of beer into his mouth.
The stakes were high for the fated singles battle between Mr. Malo and Mr. Bueno. First, the BK-G Openweight Title held by Malo was on the line. Not only that but the loser of the match would have to unmask! Bueno had Malo’s cheating scouted yet respectfully kept allowing Malo to get back to his feet so they could fight on even terms. His good sportsmanship almost blew the match for him when Malo used the ref Daisuke Kiso to shield himself and then Low Blow his opponent after Kiso was thrown aside. But Bueno kicked out of a DDT and the Unprettier. He then got his momnentum back through a series of cradles that ended with him pinning Malo with a Hurricanrana to win the championship! Still, Bueno was too much of a good person to unmask his opponent afterwards, instead allowing Malo to take off the mask himself. Malo placed his poncho over his head and pulled the mask off. He then removed the poncho to reveal he is now wearing a white mask instead of his black on. Bueno couldn’t believe what he saw until he found the words to tell everyone what he was looking at… “My brother? I thought you died. I’m so happy!” The two brothers, now united, hugged to the applause of everyone in the room.
The Great Baka Mecha Wars couldn’t wait for all of the participants to be involved before it began. Mecha MAO and Takagi Sanshirobo immediately went to fight each other but soon the third fighter appeared. It was Minoemon, who as mentioned above was Minoru Suzuki disguised as the anime character Doraemon. He sat around with a bag of groceries, drinking beer and eating dorayaki until the other two robots attacked him. Minoemon and Sanshirobo brawled in the crowd while Mecha MAO stacked up some plastic cases and set out a table on top of them in the middle of the room. Mecha MAO and Sanshirobo then formed their own Megazord combination but it was all ruined when Minoemon poured water over the both of them. Mecha MAO short circuited around the room while Minoemon gave Sanshirobo the Gotch-Style Piledriver through the table and plastic cases to win the Mecha War.
The Brahman Brothers made a mess of their own with their match against Ueki’s Magic Kingdom. Things were made even worse when Karate Brahman decided to wipe natto all over his head. Dark King Ueki, Munek & Princess Ram all getting blinded with powder after that counts as a mercy killing in my book. I guess the damsel in distress who was kidnapped by the kingdom before the match was rescued as a result but it was anything but happy ever after.
Three members of the Daisetz band teamed up with one of their adoring fans in an 8-Man Tag Match. Chie Koishikawa was running around waving lightsticks for Antonio Honda, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Hagane Shinno during their entrance. Facing them were the international foursome of Baliyan Akki from India, Shivam & Jonathan Johnson from Thailand and Sayaka from Japan. The two sides ended up getting into a Bionic Elbow duel. Everything then broke down until the Egg Tart team of Shinno & Koishikawa double cradled Sayaka for the pinfall.
The show opened with Shunma Katsumata announcing a Baka Battle Royal full of surprise entrants. Fuminori Abe and HARASHIMA started things off then were quickly joined by Shota and K4PY. Then Kota Sekifuda appeared carrying a large snake! He chased the wrestlers into the crowd where Abe picked up a child to hold up near the snake. HARASHIMA forced Abe to apologise while Sekifuda continued scaring everyone with his pet, even making Yukinori Matsui tap out even though he wasn’t part of the match. HARASHIMA finally put a stop to things by putting Sekifuda in a Cobra Twist while the snake was twisting itself around Sekifuda. He gave up and was the first elimination from the match. Shota was the next one gone when he and Takeshi Masada fought over a Backslide Pin. Abe kicked Masada in the stomach, unintentionally helping him roll Shota over for the pinfall. Suddenly danger happened when Dr. Cube entered the Battel along with two Kaiju from his posse: Erebus & Eargernon II. Together they ran wild on the other wrestlers and eliminated Abe, Masada and K4PY all at once. HARASHIMA showed shades of HERO! in trying to fight Dr Cube’s Posse off but he too also fell to them. It was all up to Shin Suzuki to save the day as the final entrant. He grabbed Dr. Cube’s helmet and twisted it off, removing his grisly face beneath and knocking him out with a neck snap in the process. He then pinned Erebus with the Takatonic to fully eliminate the Posse, making him the last man standing.
