2/15 NJPW ROAD TO CASTLE ATTACK REPORT

2/15/21 Results for New Japan’s Road to Castle Attack From Korakuen Hall, Tokyo Japan

A Report from www.njpw1972.com states that Yuto Nakashima injured his elbow and will not be participating in the Castle Attack Tour. We wish Yuto Nakashima best wishes on a quick and safe recovery.

Upcoming scheduled cards will be altered due to the injury.

Yuya Uemura, YOSHI-HASHI and Hirooki Goto vs. Tama Tonga, Tanga Loa and Jado.  YOSHI-HASHI forces Jado to tap out to a Butterfly Lock.

Jeff Cobb, The Great O-Khan and Will Ospreay, with Bea Priestley vs. Yota Tsuji, Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Hiroshi Tanahashi.  The United Empire isolated Tenzan and took turns hitting him with Mongolian Chops, as their way of mocking him as he no longer can use that maneuver.  Cobb pins Tsuji after a brutal Tour of the Islands.   

El Phantasmo, Taiji Ishimori and Yujiro Takahashi vs. SANADA, BUSHI and Hiromu Takahashi. LP brought one of his new Bullet Club shirts in a plastic bag with him to the ring.  (You could probably get this shirt at Pro Wrestling Tees.).  He teased the fans that he was going to give out a free shirt by telling them to come to him.  This would have been a violation of COVID-19 protocols so none of the fans could approach the wrestlers.  Taichi was on commentary and ELP asked him if he wanted a shirt.   No response from Taichi.  Good match!   SANADA forces Takahashi to submit to Skull End.

After the match, ELP gives his shirt to Hiromu.  Hiromu smiles and takes it with him back to the locker.

As SANADA and BUSHI are leaving, they pose for a photo for Taichi.   Taichi snapped a photo of them on his phone.     

Toru Yano, SHO, Tomohiro Ishii and Kazuchika Okada vs. Chase Owens, EVIL, Dick Togo and Jay White, with Gedo.  Owens brings his leather strap to the ring again.  White has words with Taichi, who smartly did not leave the commentary table.  Bullet Club attacks the ring announcer before he could introduce CHAOS to the audience.   All wrestlers start fighting.  During the match, the Japanese announcers speak of the Texas Heavyweight Championship which Chase Owens now holds.   They put over the Funk Family in Texas.  Togo pins SHO after EVIL layed out SHO with Everything is Evil.  Gedo and Jay White beat down Tomohiro Ishii at ringside.   EVIL locks Okada in the Scorpion Deathlock.  Bullet Club leaves CHAOS laying in the ring.

Yuji Nagata and Kota Ibushi vs. Shingo Takagi and Tetsuya Naito.  Naito pins Nagata with Destino.    Naito takes the mic and speaks on his IWGP Intercontinental Championship match with Kota Ibushi on 2/28/21 at Castle Attack in Osaka.

Stay tuned for more on the Road to Castle Attack.
