New Open the Dream Gate belt

We have a new champion and now we have a new championship belt as well. While I’m still fond of the previous title, there is some nice work gone into this belt. They have kept the locked gate concept going with the current holder’s name locked away on the inside and a bar on front to hold the keys of the defeated challengers.

For a closer look take a look at Wildcat Championship Belts, the makers of this new strap or take a peek at the video below.

Thanks to Poneglyph for the tip.

Dragon Gate Kobe WORLD 7/11/2010

Dragon Gate’s most important show of the year is upon us and contains some monumental matches on the card. Celebrating his tenth year as a professional wrestler and one of the most popular in the company since his debut, Yoshino still hasn’t held the title that all others covet; the Open the Dream Gate belt. His dream has always been to headline World and win the belt, but will he be able to make it past the currently white hot champion YAMATO – the man who dethroned Yoshino’s friend and tag partner, Naruki Doi?

Elsewhere former friends but now bitter rivals, Shingo Takagi and BxB Hulk go at it in a hair vs hair match. Having already retired the Hulk entrance dance, will we see the end of what we all know as BxB? Shingo promises to win and send Hulk back to exhibition matches, but will Hulk overcome and move onto being another main event player? This could be a defining moment of his career either way.

Also keep an eye on the currently tumultuous Naoki Tanisaki who is having some heel streaks as of late as well as KneSuka defending their Twin Gate belts against the veterans Mochi and Fujii. And who is that in match 3? A possible new wrestler who we’ve never seen before??

Let us know what you think of the show in the comments. Here is the full card:

Ads on the site

I have said in the past that I didn’t want to put any ads on the website for various reasons, unfortunately mounting costs running this place has made it an inevitability. While you are in no way obliged to, it would really help me out if you would click on the banners each time you watched a show, or even just once in a while.

I’ll be sure to never make the ads too much more intrusive such as popups or vokens. Everything else remains business as normal.

Thanks for your support
