Magnum TOKYO seriously injured the tendon in his right shoulder during his match on 3/28. He was examined in a medical treatment center in Saitama on 3/29, and was told he had to take three months off so the injury could completely heal. Toryumon is sending SUWA to replace TOKYO in his SUPER J-CUP 1st round match against Naoki Sano. I expected TOKYO to lose in the first round of the J-CUP, but the prospectes of TOKYO vs. Sano were a lot better than SUWA vs. Sano. SUWA doesn't have a lot of offense, but is a really good base and catcher for flying moves. The thing is if Sano is going over than you'd expect SUWA to get most of the offense, and he isn't nearly as good offensively as Magnum. If Sano dominates then the offense will be good, but he doesn't do the spectacular stuff that you need a guy like SUWA to help you out on. |

1/16: Ultimo Vows To Return
|
1/16 Tokyo Korkauen
Hall 2,320 sellout Overshadowing any of the matches was the announcement by one of the best, smoothest, and most diverse wrestlers in history, Ultimo Dragon, that he intentended to return to action in the squared circle. Dragon, 33, hasn't wrestled since a WCW approved doctor screwed up surgery on his left elbow in 1998, leaving him with limited mobility. He was told several times he'd have to retire, but kept refusing to say it himself. After the main event on this Korakuen Hall show, he said he would begin training for his comeback next month in Mexico. He'll be back in Japan in May for another series of Toryumon shows that will include the debut of their new wrestlers, but his in ring comeback wouldn't be until sometime next year if he's able to pull it off. |
