FEBRUARY 1st Update : New Fighters Added & Ticket Update
The Streamer Section (£50 Tickets) have now sold out completely and the last chance to get hold of 1 pair of these will be in an upcoming competition in Powerslam Magazine. More details to be announced on this soon.
March's issue of Fighting Spirit will feature a huge interview with Doug Williams and have a competition to win some exclusive Noah goodies that are not available elsewhere. An upcoming article on the sun-online.co.uk will feature the previous press release and new quotes from Doug Williams. Also over at
www.britwres.com there is the excellent S&M radio show with an 40 minute sitdown radio show with Williams, who discusses many subjects including some Noah details that were slipped out early!
Kotaro Suzuki debuted for NOAH in December 2001. The 29-year-old aerialist has been wowing crowds with his acrobatics for years, but really made an impact in 2007 when he and partner Ricky Marvin reigned as GHC junior heavyweight tag champions for most of the year. Suzuki is tipped to become the star of the junior heavyweight division’s singles ranks this year. The female favorite uses the Misty Crush, Blue Destiny and 619 as finishing moves.
Taiji Ishimori is a disciple of Ultimo Dragon, having been trained by the former WCW cruiserweight champion. Ishimori was initially a star in Dragon’s Toryumon X promotion, where he impressed audiences with his state-of-the-art moves such as the Superstar Elbow. Ishimori showed his intentions of following in the footsteps of KENTA and Naomichi Marufuji as a junior heavyweight division player, when he and KENTA won the NTV Cup in July 2007. Taiji has also just signed with pro Wrestling Noah full time.
Bison Smith is an American powerhouse who has been one of NOAH’s top foreign stars over the last seven years. Smith was trained by All Pro Wrestling and debuted in 1998. He first appeared for NOAH in 2001 and competed for the GHC World title in 2003 and 2007. Bison Smith has wrestled in Puerto Rico and for several independent promotions in the US, and is influenced by Stan Hansen and Bruiser Brody. Bison’s finishing move is the Bisontennial.
With these 3 names now included, the final 10 for the meet and greet have been announced. Vip Tickets plus 8x10's will be sent out soon. The Meet and Greet 10 are as follows Kobashi, Misawa, Kenta, Morishima, Marufuji, Suzuki, Ishimori, Danielson, Briscoes, Smith.
With the next update, more Japanese stars will be confirmed and possibly some update on the card.
