More Full Cards Announced For Upcoming Summer Struggle Dates: NEVER 6-Man Title Match on 8/10/2021 in Yokohama; RIP Hideki Hosaka (8/5/1971 - 8/2/2021); Cheap Plug For FanFyte Article

Earlier today, NJPW announced the full cards for the upcoming block of Summer Struggle tour shows, encompassing the Super Junior Tag League 2021. The biggest addition to this will be another NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team title defense for Hirooki Goto, YOSHI-HASHI & Tomohiro Ishii, as LIJ once again try to get the belts from the CHAOS trio. That will happen at the 8/10/2021 show in Yokohama. It should be 8/8/2021, but they seem to be sidestepping that date lately. That show will also feature a tune-up singles match for Shingo Takagi, as he takes on his challenger EVIL’s stablemate in Yujiro Takahashi. This show will be on NJPWWorld.

It was announced wrestler Hideki Hosaka died today, just three days shy of his 50th birthday, after a two year battle with Stage-IV colon and liver cancer. Hosaka never wrestled for NJPW, but was omnipresent in the 90s and 2000s, known mostly for his runs in W*ING, FMW, and a run in All Japan and ZERO-1 from 2002-2004. He was a good hand, as they say, and will be missed. The godhead of all FMW knowledge, BahuFMW, wrote a very good summary of Hosaka’s life and career, and did it better than I possibly could, so please go read that. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and loved ones.

On a much lighter note, I’m back on FanFyte today, writing about the evolution of the mask, costume and career of Shun Skywalker, Dragon Gate’s now-former Open The Dream Gate champion. Once again, it’s good to be writing about something other than New Japan, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that more will be coming from me at the site. Enjoy!

It was a good day again. I did my work and started reading Yoshikichi Furui's "Nogawa" during the afternoon break. Reading Yoshikichi Furui makes me calm. I feel like doing some meditation by reading his words. Like connecting to higher things. He had already passed away so I can't read his new novels. Who are the authors I wait for their new novels? I always want to read Haruki Murakami, Kazushi Hosaka, and Toshiyuki Horie's new novel. Recently I lost any interest in fresh new writers' novels. If I read Kenichiro Isozaki, I might find something new.

I'm thinking that I will watch Yasujiro Ozu's movies again. The articles about Ozu by Shigehiko Hasumi, Kishige Yoshida, and Hideki Maeda make me feel that so. I want to ask for the meaning of this life with Ozu's philosophy in his movies. How about "Tokyo Story"? I have no tactics. I just read what I want and have no deep thoughts or plans. Nowadays I read Yoshikichi Furui and Kazushi Hosaka, and it is because I want to think about what is life. People might say I am too young to ask such a question.

Touching old novels and movies again, and writing my journals with what I gained from them. Life goes on. I do almost the same activities so I feel like I can't make signs of progress. I want to do something different. In these few months, I had never watched any movies so I want to watch Ozu or Mikio Naruse as a piece of my routine. When I was young, I was basically a snob so wanted to follow 'the trend' and read 'light novels'. But recently I rarely use Twitter. I follow no trends. That might be the meaning of getting older.

Reading Yoshikichi Furui, watching Yasujiro Ozu, and listening to Yosui Inoue. I don't care what other people say about me. I just do what I want, therefore I follow these creators. The word Judith said to me "Thank you for being you" is still alive. Ah, it's good that I start reading Montaigne's "Essays" because I want to follow Eric Hoffer's manner. Step by step, I go out from the trend of the world. That means I'm getting free more and more. That might show that I'm getting to be alone, but comfortable.

Ishii v. Moose Added To Resurgence, Tanahashi & Ishii Added To Fighting Spirit Unleashed; NJPW Strong Tapings In Texas, Philly Announced, Fueling Speculation About Jay White & FinJuice in G1 Climax 31; RIP Bobby Eaton (8/14/1958 - 8/4/2021)

New Japan of America has had a busy couple days of announcements. 

First off, another match has been added to NJPW Resurgence on 8/14/2021, as Tomohiro Ishii will face off against Impact Wrestling’s Moose. Neither man were originally advertised to be on Resurgence. The pair last fought at ROH/NJPW War Of The Worlds Night 1 on 5/9/2016 (I’m sure the writeup is somewhere here on this blog), back when Moose was still in ROH, with Ishii getting the victory. Since that time, Quinn Ojinnaka’s 2009 arrest for domestic battery from when he was an NFL player has become more of public knowledge amongst wrestling fans, and it’s been recently revealed he pals around with known registered sex offender Chasyn Rance. Suffice to say, not very impressed, especially after the stench of Chasyn Rance already cast a pall on a NJPW branded show on 6/29/2018. Between this and the very high possibility that Jon Moxley’s mystery partner is Sami Callihan, I have to say, there’s another wrestling show running that night in AAA Triplemania, and that might have my attention a week from Saturday. Just saying.

Also announced, is the addition of Ishii and Hiroshi Tanahashi to the NJPW Strong tapings on 8/16/2021. It will be Ishii’s debut, and Tanahashi’s in-ring debut, as he has been one of the Japanese commentators on NJPW Strong since the show started.

In addition, NJoA announced two more sets of NJPW Strong tapings, also travelling. The Autumn Attack shows will happen on 9/25 & 9/26/2021, from the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, TX, the site of a recent AEW Dynamite Fyter Fest episode. Meanwhile. this year’s edition of New Japan Showdown will take place on 10/16 & 10/17/2021 at the old ECW Arena in Philadelphia, PA.

One thing you may note is, these shows take place smack dab in the middle of G1 Climax 31, and very many names who you’d think would be part of G1, including Jay White, Juice Robinson and David Finlay Jr., are all listed for these tapings. There is some discussion on the internet that the three of them opted out of G1 Climax this year, and decided to stay in the USA for the time being. Given how much COVID-19 is resurging in Japan during the Olympics, this is not the worst idea. Given how much COVID-19 is resurging in the USA, including and especially Texas and Florida, where Jay White is said to be residing now, this seems like a very dicey proposition at best. I believe it, however the main source for this report is also the one who reported an imminent revolt in the NJPW lockerroom among the non-Japanese wrestlers, and we all know how that worked out. Whatever the case, unless teleportation suddenly becomes a thing, we can safely rule out Switchblade, Juice and Finlay from G1 Climax 31.

Also of note, Lio Rush is still listed as being on these shows, so this retirement may not be as immediate as previously thought, if it indeed is still going on.

One of the greatest tag team wrestlers of all time has passed away. “Beautiful” Bobby Eaton, the most consistent member of the classic Midnight Express tag team, passed away in his sleep yesterday at age 62, just 10 days shy of his birthday (shades of Hideki Hosaka earlier this week). Eaton had been fighting cardiac, high blood pressure and diabetes-related issues for a number of years now; his wife Donna (herself the daughter of wrestler Bill Dundee) passed away in May of this year.

As one-half of the Midnight Express (with both Dennis Condry and Stan Lane), Eaton was a multi-championship winning wrestler, and one of the main icons of Southern tag team wrestling. He was also frequently considered one of the nicest people in wrestling, often looking out for other workers who needed help of some kind. I really can’t go into everything he was about, suffice to say, he had a long and glory-filled career. Look him up, read about him. Truly a wrestler’s wrestler.

Despite all that, Eaton did not make it to NJPW, or Japan in general, until 1993, whilst working for WCW, a company he would be with since it was Jim Crockett Promotions, and stay with until the bitter end in 2001. Eaton had exactly 30 matches in NJPW, on the Explosion Tour 1993, Fighting Spirit 1994 and NJPW WCW World In Japan shows in 1995. The biggest match he had in NJPW was an IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team title challenge on 6/14/1993, teaming not with either Midnight Express partner, but Tony Halme, falling to the champions the Hellraisers, Road Warrior Hawk & Power Warrior (Kensuke Sasaki). 

Our thoughts and condolences to his family, loved ones, friends, and anyone who was thrilled by Eaton in the ring.
