Sorry for the delays, but we are back with more G1 Grumble action! We are nearing the halfway point of the G1 Climax 26 tournament and the pieces are falling into place. Here’s all the action from night's 7 and 8. Night 7 – A Block The Ace Finally End His Bad Luck. One of the intriguing storylines in this year’s G1 is last years winner Hiroshi Tanahashi and his 0-3 record coming into Night 7. Having just returned from injury and seemingly far from 100%, he fell in his first 3 matches to competitors such as Togi Makabe and SANADA, however this was finally the night that all changed as he took down the Bullet Clubs big man, Bad Luck Fale. Despite taking home the win, it was not an easy night for the Ace, as Bad Luck Fale methodically tried to take apart Tanahashi, working on his recently rehabbed shoulder, and swatting him out of the air like a fly whenever he tried to mount a comeback. However Tanahashi wasn’t prepared to go down again as he kicked out of the Grenade and countered the Bad Luck Fall into a roll up getting the win he desperately needed to stay in the tournament. After the win, Tanahashi spoke with the crowd and vowed to not lose another match in the tournament and win back-to-back tournaments, however the deck is truly stacked against him. Championship Run. IWGP Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada continued his run in the G1 taking his record to 3-1 at the expense of Bad Boy Tama Tonga. Tonga took control of the contest early, but when attempting the gun stun, Okada countered and took over the match, hitting a big German suplex before ending proceedings with the Rainmaker. Can the Champion keep up his run in the G1 and take control of his own destiny? Don’t Get into a Chop Contest with a Stone Pitbull. In what this writer thought was the match of the night, and I may be a little bias based on my love of the Stone Pitbull, Tomohiro Ishii won an excellently fought contest over Pro Wrestling NOAH’s Naomichi Marufuji. The match started at Marufujis pace before the tide turned and the two traded stiff chops and elbows. Marufuji may not be winning every match, but all his previous opponents have been wearing the scabs and bruises from his whipping chops as a keepsake from their encounters. The match turned to Ishii’s favour as it went on, with the two trading their big moves before Ishii knocked Marufuji silly with a head-butt and Lariat, before securing the win with the brain buster. One thing to note here is how good Ishii has been this tournament, and in general over the past year. Usually the tough-guy persona benefits the one with the reputation more than their opponents, but Ishii bucks that trend using his brilliant selling that elevates his opponent to his level, meaning win or lose, both men come out looking better for having the contest. Skull End After a promising start to the G1 for SANADA, it looked to have been a one hit wonder when he made Tanahashi tap on the opening night, however this is a marathon and he was bound to pick up the pace once again, and this time his victim was Hirooki Goto. SANADA used the Skull End (a dragon sleeper) to wear down Goto who refused to submit to the Los Ingobernables member, however on the final attempt, Cold Skull let go of the submission and hit a picturesque moonsault to take home the win, giving him another 2 points to keep him within reach of the G1 Final. The Raging Bull stopped in his tracks by King Kong. The story of Hiroyoshi Tenzan’s final G1 took another downturn as he fell in the opening tournament match of the night to A Block Leader, Togi Makabe. This was a good stiff opener for the two, however the intense schedule of the G1 has started to take its toll on the vetran, leading to Makabe hitting a Samoan drop and the King Kong Knee for the win, keeping him on top of the A Block. Here is what the A Block looks like after night 7. The one to watch will be Makabe who has yet to be defeated, and Tanahashi will be keeping an eye on this because even if he can match Makabe's final point total, he lost the head-to head against him. IWGP Champ Okada is only trailing by 2 points, but he is the favourite in the group and will likely overtake Makabe. Night 8 - B BlockTranqui....oh crap. Former IWGP Heavyweight champion Tetsuya Naito is used to calling out "Tranquilo" after matches, but it was he who found himself been put to sleep by the NEVER Openweight Champion Katsuyori Shibata in a great main event. Naito was his usual cocky self as he worked over Shibata's injured shoulder and knee, however his confidence got the better of him as the hard hitting NEVER champ refused to kneel and took it to Naito with his signature style of hard elbows and kicks. The finish saw him lock in a rear-naked choke that forced the smile from Naito's face, Naito fought with everything to break it but eventually succummed, leading to Shibata sitting him down for the Penalty kick and, rather than go for the pin, lock in the Rear Naked choke once again, choking the former champion and one of the favourites for the G1 unconsious. While Naito is a favourite to win this years G1, Shibata is many 'ITK' people's dark horse, and this is a big win for him. Omega Can’t Get One Over the Big Man. In a rematch from Dominion back in May, Michael Elgin once again bested the Bullet Clubs Kenny Omega in a riveting contest. The match started much like many of Omegas matches before this tournament did, with interference from Taguchi that distracted Elgin long enough for Omega to hit a big dive. The match continued to go back and forth with Omega working over Elgin’s injured shoulder, and Elgin making big power comebacks. The match finished with both men hitting the others finish on their opponent for near falls before the IWGP intercontinental champion hit two big lariats and the Spin-out power bomb for the win. Blue Justice is no match for KICKS Much like with the story of Tenzan, NJPW legend Yugi Nagata is also starting to feel the toll of this intense G1 tournament, as he fell once again, this time to Pro Wrestling NOAH’s Katsuhiko Nakajima. Nakajima controlled the vetren with his kickboxing skills, but then had to face a barrage as Nagata used the white eyes arm bar and the backdrop driver that has put away most of his opponents in this tournament, only for it to be met with a Penalty Kick and a brain buster, giving Nakajima the big win. Karma YOSHI-HASHI picked up an important 2 points over Los Ingobernables de Japon big man, EVIL in a great back and forth contest. In the closing part of the contest, EVIL forced his way out of the double armlock, only to be caught by a lariat and a senton for a near fall, and then the Karma Half nelson driver that finally put a stop to the King of Darkness. YANO WINS! In the opening contest of night 8, Toru Yano finally picked up a win over Tomoaki Honma in a fun contest. The match was very much Head-butt vs. Shenanigans as Honma tried to use his Kokeshi however Yano used distractions to hit a low blow and get the quick roll up victory. The B Block is still wide open with pretty much everyone in contention. with 5 matches to go, everyone will be looking for the next gear.

It's SUMMERFEST at the Royal Grumble! This week we're delving into Graeme's Top 3 SummerSlam matches, as we look at 2001, 2013 and 2015. Plus, Battleground, Finn Balór's Raw debut and Daryl makes a startling confession about his love of Shawn Michaels.
We are back with our coverage of both A and B Blocks of the G1 Climax 26. Here’s what went down on nights 5 and 6. A BlockRainmaker is the King of Chaos. Kazuchika Okada defeated Hirooki Goto in a hard fought contest that headlined night 5. Despite been team mates in the Chaos stable, these two have faced off quite a lot in the past few years, and their chemistry was evident in this back and forth contest. Okada improves his record to 2-1, matching Goto’s 2-1 record. Logic would dictate that Okada will be around the top of the A Block table in a few weeks, while Goto, who was a finalist in this years New Japan Cup, will probably trade wins and losses from this point. The Ace falls to the Bad Boy. Hiroshi Tanahashi is a star that the NJPW fans are used to seeing having his hand raised, which makes the fact that he is now 0-3 in the G1 all the more shocking. Tama Tonga (1-2) was the latest man to take advantage of Tanahashi’s struggle for form in the tournament when he blocked the High Fly Flow before hitting the Ace with the gun stun and pinning him clean in the middle and picking up his first win of the Tournament. The crowd were stunned at the result, sitting in almost silence as Tanahashi screamed in frustration. Will Tanahashi pick up a win soon? The Streak is over. Naomichi Marufuji surprised everyone on night one by defeating Okada, and now he has acted as the spoiler again, becoming the stumbling block in the “one last time” fairy tale that is Hiroyoshi Tenzan’s G1 run. The Moonsault that has given Tenzan 2 wins previously proved to be his undoing in this hard-hitting contest, as Marufuji avoided it before hitting the Shitanui for the win. Marufuji also lit up Tenzan with chops, leaving welts and blood on his chest, showing just how tough the NOAH stand out can be. Tenzan and Marufuji now both sit with 2-1 records. King Kong cracks Cold Skull. SANADA has failed to live up to his first night performance as he fell to the still undefeated Togi Makabe. The Los Ingobernables newcomer took over the match early, but the brute force of Makabe proved too much for him as he was caught with the Spider German and the King Kong Knee Drop. Sanada falls to 1-2 while Makabe tops the group with a perfect 3-0 record. Stone Pitbull will murder you. In the opening contest, Tomohiro Ishii picked up his first win of the tournament defeating Bad Luck Fale of the Bullet Club. Ishii did a great job making Fale look like a monster, which with the large height difference wasn’t difficult, however the finish saw Ishii and Fale attempt to take off each others head before the Stone Pitbull picked up Fale and held him for a delayed Brainbuster for the win. Ishii moves to 1-2, matching Fales record. B BlockUnbreakable! In the main event of Night 6, the IWGP Intercontinental Champion Michael Elgin finally picked up a win over NEVER Openweight Champion Katsuyori Shibata. Despite his poor run of results, Elgin has so far been the performer of the tournament, and while this didn’t live up to the highs of his contest with Naito on night 4 (Seriously, go and watch it now), Shibata proved a capiable opponent in his contest that saw Elgin try and out-power the hard hitting openweight champ. Elgin battled through Sleepers and suplexes to his Shibata with the Spiral bomb for the win, picking up his first win of the tournament while giving Shibata his second loss. Cleaning Up Kenny Omega improved his record to 2-1 by taking out the previously unbeaten Tomoaki Honma with the One Winged Angel. Omega controlled most of the contest while Honma soaked up the punishment and tried to fight back, much to the delight of the crowd. However it was all for naught as Omega picked up the W. Tranquilo pt2, stop clowning. In an interesting styles clash, Testuya Naito picked up another win over Toru Yano in a match that saw Yano attempt all his usual shenanigans, only for Naito to look at him with an expression that said “I cant be bothered with this”. It was a pretty quick match where once the comedy died down, Naito went to work and finished off Yano quickly with the Destino, improving his record to 2-1 while Yano has failed to pick up a victory so far. Kick the Evil out. Los Ingobernables de Japon big man EVIL suffered his second defeat of the G1 to NOAH import Katsuhiko Nakajima. EVIL battled hard, hitting an impressive Death valley driver into a Backbreaker, but he was no match for the hard kicks of Nakajima, who finished off the King of Darkness with the PK and a brainbuster, improving his record to 2-1 Blue Justice continues the fight! Yugi Nagata at 48 is showing everyone that he is still as tough as they come as he defeated YOSHI HASHI in a fantastic opening match. YOSHI-HASHI took it to Nagata at every opportunity, but with the crowd behind him, Nagata hit the Backdrop driver that has done him well so far to take his record to 3-0, placing him at the top of B Block, While YOSHI-HASHI fell to 1-2.

Alright and that? It's only bloomin' Action Figures Anonymous with DJ Daryl aka Dizzy L in tha hoooooooouse!!!!
San Diego Comic Con has come and gone. Daryl is here with news and reviews. Fresh. SDCC4Life
It's time to shake things up as the Royal Grumble dissect the WWE Draft! Find out who we think were the winners and losers, where the shows will go from here and most of all, will we start watching Smackdown? Plus, our SUMMERFEST line up is announced, Daryl descends into hypocrisy over Brock Lesnar, and Dan breaks Graeme's Golden Rule of the Grumble..
With the shows coming thick and fast for this years G1 Climax, it was time for a slight change in the format, so for the second round and onwards, we will look at 2 nights of action from both A and B Blocks, which featured an early contender for match of the tournament. Night 3 – A BlockIt could be a long month for the Ace!The surprises keep on coming in the G1, and no surprise was bigger than in the main event of night 3 when Hiroshi Tanahashi, the ace of NJPW, fell to 0-2 after succumbing to the King Kong knee drop of Togi Makabe. Tanahashi, coming off a second injury layoff this year, has been fighting vigorously though his physical condition may not be 100%, and despite his attempts to put Makabe away, he was too strong for the former G1 winner and multiple time winner of the G1. Tanahashi’s story is becoming an interesting part of the block, how will a man of great success come back from two losses that many had him pegged to win? And what about his opponent, Togi Makabe is now 2-0 in the G1 and is picking up steam as the tournament progresses. He might be the dark horse of the group, but only time will tell. The Rainmaker stops Cold Skull in his tracks.This match saw two men of different mentalities and differing opening nights go head to head. SANADA was coming off his upset victory of Hiroshi Tanahashi, while Kazuchika Okada was reeling from a loss to Pro-Wrestling NOAH star Naomichi Marufuji. What we got was really a textbook Okada match, with the relative newcomer trying every trick he had before eventually getting caught by the IWGP champions devastating Rainmaker lariat. Both men now hold 1-1 records with everything to play for. Marufuji’s luck runs out. Coming off his huge win on night 1, Naomichi Marufuji had momentum on his side, only to be met with a large wall by the name of ‘The Underboss’, Bad Luck Fale. Marufuji managed to hit some big strikes but ultimately was hit by the Grenade, giving both the victor and the loser 1-1 records as the G1 continues. Stop! He's already dead!Tomohiro Ishii certainly lives up to his moniker of the Stone pitbull, as he and Hirooki Goto beat the holy hell out of each other in this match. In a tremendous back and forth contest, both men landed huge blows, but ultimately Goto found a crack in the human boulder that is Ishii when he hit him with a brainbuster to his knee and finally the GTR for the big win, leaving Ishii 0-2 while continuing his perfect record. The Bull is still going strong.Seriously, what is going on with Tama Tongas ring gear? Anyway, in the opening G1 contest of night 3, the story of Hiroyoshi Tenzan, the old veteran having one last shot at the G1 continues to be one of the most compelling stories in the tournament, as he picked up another win in what was essentially a Tenzan greatest hits match. Tonga may feel with his 0-2 record that he wished he would have stuck with his brother. Night 4 – B BlockTranquilo!In what will be on many peoples short list for match of the tournament already, Tetsuya Naito, former IWGP champion and leader of Los Ingobernables de Japon, took on IWGP Intercontinental champion Michael Elgin in a scintillating contest. The match had a lot of psychology with Naito up to his usual tricks before attacking the knee of the bigger man, much like the previous night against Nagata. This time however, he didn’t let his ego get in the way and stayed on Elgin, locking in many innovative leg submissions. Then, shit went down. Elgin fought back hard leading to an amazing closing to the match, with Elgin using his strength to counter Naito’s speed from any position and slam him down, only failing to get the 3. The finish of the match was a thing of perfection, as Elgin deadlifted Naito out of his knee lock, only for Naito to counter one last time with the Destino. Naito went to 1-1 and let the crowd know that the tournament would belong to Los Ingobernables, where as the IWGP intercontinental champ fell to 0-2. I beg and plead with all of you, if you havnt seen this match, go watch it right now! Penalty Shoot-outIn a match many were looking forward to, Katuyori Shibata finally got one in the win column in a stiff contest with Pro-Wresting NOAH stand out Katsuhiko Nakajima. Both utilise kicks and similar move sets that lead to a lot of expectations that this match paid off in full. Nakajima took over most of the early going much to the dismay of the large support for Shibata, however things picked up in a big way which lead to a hard hitting game of H-o-r-s-e, trading the similar moves from their move-sets before eventually Nakajima attempted to hit the penalty kick, only to be met with a hard slap from Shibata, leading to ‘The Wrestler’ hitting his own PK for the victory, meaning both men go on with 1-1 records. Just Think of the Poor Referee!In a nice change of pace from the hard hitting action, Kenny Omega and Toru Yano met in a fun contest that featured water spitting, throwing the referee to each other, and all the usual shenanigans you would expect from Yano, much to Kenny Omegas dismay when he clearly shouted “enough with the comedy” Yanos tricks sadly worked against him when the cleaner hit him with a big knee to put him down to 0-2, while Omega finally picked up a win in his first G1. Blue Justice overcomes Evil.Whats not to love about 48 year old veteran Yuji Nagata? The former IWGP champion took on EVIL in a great contest that saw the King of Darkness take advantage of the already injured knee of Nagata, before Blue Justice battled back to take his second win of the G1. This tournament in the early going has been one for the veterans, and long may it continue in the story of Yuji Nagata. Concussion, starring Honma.I cant help but wince every time I see Honma do a diving headbutt, or land one of his pile driver’s that seem to offer zero protection for his opponent, but hey, at least his view on hits to the head is consistant. Tomoaki Honma went 2-0 with a solid victory over YOSHI-HASHI, who had celebrated a big win over Kenny Omega 2 nights previous, fell to two vicious pile drivers and the diving headbutt from the tanned madman. We at the Royal Grumble will be covering all the G1 action, You can also watch the whole G1 (with English commentary on the final 3 nights courtesy of Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino) on NJPWWorld.com, and the sign up instructions can be found here.

Night 2 of the G1 is in the books, and featured even more twists and turns than night 1. Here’s your rundown. Honma gets a measure of revenge. In the main event of today show, Tomoaki Honma defeated Katsuyori Shibata in a typically hard-hitting contest that saw Honma drop Shibata with 3 tombstone pile driver’s before hitting his flying head-butt for the 3 count. This was a rematch from several weeks ago where Honma was unsuccessful in challenging Shibata for the NEVER open-weight title. After that match, Shibata showed disrespect to Honma by throwing him out of the ring after the match, and after several confrontations in tag contests, this match had a lot of emotion going into it. Honma celebrated his win with an impassioned promo, preceded by him offering his hand to Shibata, to which Shibata slapped him. No matter what happens later in the G1, this feud is not over. Blue Justice has still got it. In the bigger shock of the night, Yugi Nagata shocked everyone by defeating recent IWGP champion and leader of Los Ingobernables de Japon, Tetsuya Naito. Naito spent a lot of the contest in control of Nagata, working his knee while mimicking Nagata’s signature hand gesture. Nagata eventually found his form and took over, and after blocking the Tranquilo, hitting Naito with two big back-drop driver’s for the win. Post Match, Nagata gave Naito a little nod and mimicked Naito’s signature open eye gesture, to which Naito actually smiled. There seemed to be a lot of respect in this contest, which is highly unusual for Naito, but I do expect that to change. Everything is EVIL EVIL, like Sanada on Night 1, has really begun to show that Los Ingobernables de Japon is not just the Naito show, and his victory over the IWGP Intercontinental Champion Michael Elgin was almost as effective as Sanada’s victory the night previous. This match was everything you would expect between the two big men, lots of hard hits that would send the average man down to the floor for a little nap, ending with EVIL scoring a clean victory over the champ with the GTO. Elgin made his name in Japan through the G1 last year, and while I still expect a strong showing from Big Mike, EVIL could be one to watch. YOSHI-HASHI cleans up. This G1 is already becoming known for surprise wins and upsets, and this was the start of a big run of them. YOSHI-HASHI fought through the barrage given to him by former IWGP Intercontinental Champion and de-facto Bullet Club leader Kenny Omega in a great contest that really woke the crowd up. This tournament will be Kenny Omega’s chance to prove his position as a star in the company, and im certain his Win-loss record will match his performances by the time the B Block is decided. Yoshi Hashi, while very popular, sadly falls into the same category as Nakajima and Yano (more on that next) NOAH shooter takes out the Joker.In the opening contest of the B Block, NOAH’s Katsuhiko Nakajima defeated Toru Yano in a pretty short contest that saw Yano try to use every trick he could to get the quick victory, including tying Nakajima’s arm to the guard rail to get his opponent counted out, and lots of quick pin attempts before Nakajima unloaded on him with kicks and a Brain Buster for the win. it would be a shock for either to go on to win the tournament, but both will have a say on who comes out on top. In other news As usual, the show opened with a few tag matches featuring A Block competitors and juniors. The highlights included
The next few days are packed with shows on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. From here I will post articles every two shows covering all the A and B block action.

The G1 Climax kicked off today with a full slate of A Block contests, as well as the B Block participants competing in tag-matches to open up the show.
Here is a run down of the talking points coming out of the first night of G1 action Marafuji defeats the IWGP Heavyweight Champion! In an inter-promotional dream match of sorts, former GHC champion Naomichi Marufuji defeated reigning IWGP champion Kazuchika Okada in a thrilling contest that was worthy of the main event slot on night 1. With the victory, not only does Marufuji get himself 2 points on the board, but he most likely will receive an IWGP Heavyweight title shot in the fall. Sanada upsets the Ace! In another star making performance, Sanada defeated the returning Tanahashi in an outstanding contest. This was Tanahashi’s return following a shoulder injury, and in this match he threw everything he could at Sanada, however after 2 dragon sleeper attempts and 3 moonsaults, Sanada finally forced the ace to tap to the Dragon sleeper picking up a stunning win for the relative new-comer over a former multi time IWGP champion. Goto takes down the Underboss. Hirooki Goto picked up 2 points in a tough contest against the Bullet Clubs Underboss, Bad Luck Fale. Before the match, Goto had a short video showing him reaching the finals of the G1 and New Japan Cup, and ultimately falling to the winners who both went on to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, Okada and Naito. The match was a typical Bad Luck Fale match with him taking control and beating down Goto. When the momentum finally swung back in Gotos favour, he managed to use headbutts, a rear naked choke, and then his GTO finish to get the victory and his first 2 points. The Guerilla of Destiny falls to Makabe Makabe got a measure of revenge against one half of the team who defeated him and Homna for the IWGP tag titles earlier in the year, while getting an important victory in the first round. The match started hot with Tonga attacking Makabe and throwing him to the outside. The brawl continued for much of the match before Makabe came out on top in a brawl on the top rope, eventually hitting Tonga with the knee drop for the win. One last G1 In the opening match of this year’s G1, Tomohiro Ishii was taken out by Hiroyoshi Tenzan. A Former 3 time G1 winner, Tenzan was vocal about his upset at not been included in this years tournament. Eventually his former tag-partner Kojima stepped aside and gave his spot to Tenzan, allowing him one last chance at glory. This match was everything you would want for an opening contest, with Tenzan showing the strength and tenacity of his younger years while going after the Stone Pitbull. After exchanging forearms and stiff head-butts, Tenzan hit is Original TTD and then a moonsault for the victory. The crowd was on their feet for Tenzan, who’s story will be one of the most intriguing at the tournament progresses. The B Block competitors were also in Tag action, teaming with juniors in 4 great contests.
Coming up next! The B Block begins on the 22nd with Yugi Nagata vs Naito, a rematch of Shibata vs Homna, as well as the rest of the B Block in tournament action.
