New GHC

Rikidozan · 01-03-2003, 04:21 PM

Kenta Kobashi is the new Pro Wrestling NOAH Global Honoured Champion after going over Mitsuharu Misawa on1/3 at the Nippon Budokan Hall in front of 16,700 fans.

Both workers were said to have given their all in the match, which is no small-feat for Kobashi with all his injuries. Question is, how long can he hold title and keep from succumbing to those injuried?

I read that Kobashi said he was going to use a moonsault in the match.

Did he do it?

Rikidozan · 01-03-2003, 06:09 PM

From what I can gather, no, he didn't do a moonsault

Peter K · 02-03-2003, 06:44 PM

Thats good news, especially for a worker who has been bugged with many injuries, I can only hope from now, he will carry on defending the title and try not to get injuiried.

Tell me, has he had many problems with his legs?

Misawa used a Chicken-Wing suplex on Kobashi....from the ramp to the F'N floor

Peter K · 03-03-2003, 10:11 AM

Sorry if I'm asking this but it probably will seem a dumb question but was the suplex impressive?

16,700 fans, was that a sell out for Pro Wrestling NOAH?

Not only was it a sell out but it was the biggest ever pro wrestling crowd at the Tokyo Nippon Budokan.

I should think the suplex hurt - the ramp is several feet higher than the floor!

Rikidozan · 03-03-2003, 02:39 PM

Kobashi was taken to hospital straight after the match, and will be out for around a month.

Peter K · 03-03-2003, 06:28 PM

Thats great news for NOAH, achieving the largest crowd ever at the Budokan Hall, 16,700 sell out.......VERY impressive!!!

Thats a setback for Kobashi but at least it is a minor setback, I hope he will be raring back and defending the GHC title.
Did Kobashi suffered a concussion after taking THAT suplex?

Rikidozan · 03-03-2003, 07:23 PM

I don't believe so, he must've gotten his hands up to protech his head, sensable chap indeed
