NJPW G1 Climax 2022 Results: Will Ospreay [4] Defeats Yujiro Takahashi [2] In D-Block Action, Bad Luck Fale [4] Defeats Toru Yano [2] In A-Block Action (07/27)

Will Ospreay is on track for a great G1 Climax, already claiming his first victory – and having an incredibly winnable match against Yujiro Takahashi here tonight. While Takahashi is far from a top contender, he’s been showing up in matches – and is at two points so far. Tonight, someone moves to 4 points in the D-Block.

Will Ospreay Cuts Down A Motivated Yujiro Takahashi

Yujiro was lacking in his manager Pieter going into this match, after he tried to pawn her off on ELP for two points. He lacked a pep in his step, but she’d come out behind him – and they’d hug and make up. Yujiro would start quick with a boot to the face, before nailing some knife edge chops in the corner.

Ospreay would fire back with a big dropkick, before being taken to the floor and driven off the barricade. He’d stumble into the slop drop from Takahashi onto the thin mats at ringside, before a sliding dropkick in the ring. Backdrop would get a one count, before Ospreay would shove a thumb into the eye.

Takahashi would take the Blast Kick, before the springboard forearm smash. A double handed chop would set up a standing shooting star press – before landing on the knees of Takahashi. A big boot and Fisherman’s Buster would follow, before the Angle Slam for a two count on Ospreay.

Pimp Juice would be blocked by Ospreay, before an enziguri in the corner. Ospreay would get staggered on the top rope, but would fight Takahashi off – before a forearm to the back of the neck. Springboard 450 Splash would follow, before Hidden Blade was blocked with a low blow into Miami Shine for the near fall.

Satellite DDT and Pimp Juice from Takahashi would set up for Big Juice – but Ospreay would strike away at Takahashi before looking for OsCutter. It’d be blocked, but Hidden Blade was not. Ospreay moves to four points.

Bad Luck Fale Won’t Be Fooled Again

Toru Yano has been determined to body slam Bad Luck Fale for years now. Tonight, they clash in the A-Block, and Yano will have a chance to move to four points, but so does Fale. The two spoilers of the block clashing will be interesting to see, and truly anything could happen here tonight. Historically, Yano leads their singles matches with a 5-1-0 record, with matches rarely going more than five minutes.

Bell would ring, and Yano would get hyped up before throwing some forearms and being dropped to a knee after one from Fale. A rake to the eyes would see Fale walk forward with a shoulder tackle. Yano got the roll up for one, before fleeing the ring. Fale would take a seat in the ring, and waited for a count out.

Yano went back into the ring at 18, before looking for a bodyslam… and getting slammed himself. Fale would scare Yano, but was able to lure him to the floor. Yano would pull water out from under the ring and spray Fale in the eyes, before getting beaten with a corner pad.

Elbow drop would get a two count, before Yano was shoved into the exposed corner and rolled up for the finish. Bad Luck Fale moves to four points!
