GHC Heavyweight Champion Kiyomiya Successfully Defends‍ Title in ⁣London

Kiyomiya Promises to “COME‍ BACK” after⁣ Fourth Heated Battle in UK Tour

GHC Heavyweight Champion Kiyomiya successfully defended his title for the fourth time‍ in London, England,⁢ bringing NOAH’s first “UK tour” in 13 ⁢years to a close. Kiyomiya won a heated battle with Knight Jr. to emerge victorious.

The main ⁣event of the final day of the three-match series​ in London saw Kiyomiya face off against Knight⁢ Jr.,⁣ a talented fighter of the same generation. Knight Jr. had won by ⁣pinfall against⁤ Kiyomiya at the Manchester event the night‍ before, and he continued ⁢to push Kiyomiya hard in the title match.

Kiyomiya also shot down a Lionsault-style ‌body attack with a dropkick in mid-air and successfully launched a Tiger ‌Suplex on the apron side,⁣ causing a huge ‌roar in the arena. ⁣However, Knight Jr. was not going to stop, and he counterattacked​ with a 450° Splash, which was dodged but landed.

Kiyomiya kicked out of ‌the Good ⁤Night Driver (Fire Thunder) and then landed a desperate comeback ‍triple jump Shining, followed by a LOVE pose and a modified Shining to get⁣ the three-count.

Kiyomiya won the Japan-UK new generation showdown and successfully defended his GHC Heavyweight title for the fourth time. The London crowd⁣ gave an ⁢enthusiastic cheer, and before there was any time to bask in the ⁣afterglow, the next challenger appeared‌ – Kitamiya.

Kitamiya ‍began his microphone appeal in English, ⁢”Thank ​you for ‍coming today. This is Pro Wrestling Noah. Please forget about my match​ for the Progress Championship today. However, Luke Jacobs was a great champion. I would like to face him in a singles match‍ next time.”

Kitamiya then turned to Kiyomiya and said, “Kiyomiya,⁢ the N-1 match ended in a ‌draw after 30 minutes.⁤ Let’s settle ⁣this. Please accept me with that big heart.​ The next challenger is Masaki Tamiya!”

Kiyomiya immediately responded on the microphone in English, saying, “Masa‌ Kitamiya, we drew last month. I’m going to beat you!” As he​ accepted, ​the two men raised the belt and glared at each other, deciding that a “decisive battle” for the GHC Heavyweight title between the two men would​ take place.

Kiyomiya Promises‍ to Return to London

After Kitamiya ‍left, the champion took the microphone again and began speaking in English. ⁢When he shouted “Thank you London!”, the crowd erupted in a chorus of “Please come back to England!”

Kiyomiya continued speaking with a smile, “Thank⁤ you Ricky (Knight Jr.), let’s wrestle again. How was the NOAH show!? Professional wrestling in the UK⁤ is so hot! It’s great! And ‍I promise you, I’ll beat Masa Kitamiya ‍and come back to London again.”

The crowd erupted in cheers as he made his promise. He ended by shouting, “I love ‍London! I love London!” This was his first UK tour in 13 years, and his presence as “the undisputed center of NOAH” was even more prominent.

Post-Match ⁣Comments

Kiyomiya said, ⁣”Yesssss! I defended ‍my belt on the last⁢ day of the UK tour! First of all, Ricky Knight Jr. is a truly amazing wrestler. I’m so glad to meet someone from my generation, who I can call a comrade, in⁣ faraway England,‌ and it’s given me motivation to fight in the future.”

Kitamiya said, “I can’t​ help losing… I can’t! I’m not happy ⁢with it at all. I can’t just forget about it and ​move on… I didn’t come all the way to England to lose, ⁤you idiot! I’ll bring back something at least! That’s all!”
