All Japan 12/04 Results

Two big title changes highlighted the show. The grudge match between Tomoaki Honma and Kazushi Miyamoto was more or less settled today as Honma beat his Tumeric Storm partner with a Fire-Thunder Driver. The match was pretty much back and forth, with both men even going to the outside for weapons! Honma managed to gain the advantage and hit a big diving headbutt for a nearfall before putting Miyamoto away for the much needed win after a poor showing during the Real World Tag League. The first title match of the night saw Nobutaka Araya & Shigeo Okamura pull off a big upset as they defeated Tenryu & Fuchi for the All Asia Tag Titles! The young duo centered their attack on Tenryu for most of the match, but the old veteran wouldn't go down without a fight, even kicking out of Araya's moonsault at just 1! Fuchi did all he could to help his partner, but Tenryu was finally put away by a modified slam by Araya to win the titles! The next match for the Jr. Heavyweight Championship saw an incredible bout between champion Jun Kasai and Osaka Pro's Ebessan! The God of Comedy stepped up his game and almost pulled off a huge upset on several occassions throughout the match! Kasai barely managed to kick out of the Kankuu Tornado and resorted to using rudo tactics by kicking Ebessan low before scoring the win with a diving body press. Nagata & Kashin have been dethroned! The long reigning tag champions finally lost the belts to the Love Machine team of Love Machine Arashi & Mini Love Machine! This was an incredible back and forth match with lots of near falls throughout. The shocker of the match being Mini Love pinning Nagata with a Hawaiian Smasher to bring the belts to the Love stable! Post match, Nagata said he might be done with All Japan for now, and would go back to New Japan to finish the feud with Black New Japan. He said he'd come back if he was ever invited though. Triple Crown Champion Toshiaki Kawada denied The Love Machines a second title in their stable as he defeated the leader of the Love Machines in the main event of the night. SLM started off strong, overpowering Kawada and brawling out to the floor. Kawada fought back and busted open SLM with a soccer kick to the head. Back in, SLM scored a near fall with a German suplex, but Kawada came back and nailed a barrage of kicks followed by a pair of high angle powerbombs to retain the Triple Crown.
