Match of the Day - Kota Ibushi takes on YOSHIHIKO as rocket-launching Hulk Hogan?

Kota Ibushi vs. YOSHIHIKO - Ironman Heavymetalweight and KO-D Openweight Championship match - DDT (2009)


Two great Japanese wrestling stars of Dramatic Dream Team go one-on-one with each other's title on the line. Kota Ibushi was the KO-D champ at the time while YOSHIHIKO (dressed as Hulk Hogan) was the reigning Ironman Heavymetalweight champ - a title that is defended under 24/7 rules just as the Hardcore title once was back in the states. The seemingly normal title match soon becomes a 30 minute slobberknocker!

PS: I heard that YOSHIHIKO stiffed Ibushi pretty good in this match due to some backstage heat/bad blood between one another. Maybe that Infinity Destroyer YOSHIHIKO delivered to Ibushi was a little more personal than perceived.

I sure hope YOSHIHIKO gets signed to WWE soon so his career can really blow up!
