Gatoh Move Upcoming Show


Want to let everyone know that this blogger is enjoying the Philippines visit a whole bunch!  So much has happened in such a short time.  Have talked with several pinoy wrestling fans already and watched Summerslam with a friend of mine (which was one of the best 'Slams ever!).  


And being here when the Paris Olympics is going on and seeing Carlos Yulo getting Gold twice in Gymnastics!  Amazing!  Nesthy and Aira are still competing for medals!  And then there's my favorite in the pole fault in RJ Obiena!  I got to see him live last year in a huge track and field meet at the Prefontaine Classic!  All the best to all three athletes.  You are making this country proud and we are all seeing history!


Sorry I got away from pro wrestling momentarily.  However, the latest bit of pro wrestling news needs to be posted and fast.


Homegrown pinoy pro wrestler, Jake De Leon will be traveling to Japan later this month for a show put on by Gatoh Move (also known as ChocoPro).  He will be the first pinoy pro wrestler to wrestle in Tokyo's, Korauken Hall!  This is a great honor for any wrestler, especially from outside Japan.


JDL wrestled last month in Malaysia and nearly took the Ambition Global Heavyweight Title from Shaukat in the main event of their show.  He gave Shaukat all he could handle before the latter escaped with the win.


Jake will be teaming up with SPWs, Dr. Gore (w/UMA) and Antonio Honda against three other teams.  Notables such as Shivam and Monomoth of SETUP Thailand will also be on the show.



The thing that really stands out, besides the talent at the event, is the fact that the show will take place at Korauken Hall.  The arena is a short walk from the Tokyo Dome and is the mecca for pro wrestling in Japan.  New Japan Pro Wrestling has hosted many shows there.


The event, For The Future, will take place on Saturday, August 31st beginning at 11:30 am.  Doors open at 10:45am.


I know that one wrestling fan, and friend of mine, will be in Japan, and hopefully at the show.  For those that are interested in seeing this event, please visit the Gatoh Move Pro Wrestling Facebook page.  There is a recent post where you can possibly get tickets.  Thank you.
