New Japan Pro Wrestling on AXS results for 26 June 2015 starts with hiroshi tanahashi vs honma.
Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Honma
The match starts out with Honma and Tanahashi grappling, with Honma gaining the advantage. We jump ahead to see Honma hit a DDT and a standing Blockbuster, but only getting a two count out of it. The two trade strikes until Tanahashi hits a dropkick. Honma no sells it and slugs Tanahashi with a clothesline, but both men are down.
Honma hits another clothesline and a vertical drop brainbuster, but misses the top-rope headbutt, which he misses every time. The two are trading again, with Tanahashi getting the best of it before a German suplex that gets a two count. Honma comes back with an outside roll and a dragon screw leg whip, but can't get the job done. Tanahashi drops Honma and hits the High Fly Flow for the win.
Winner: Hiroshi Tanahashi via pinfall (High Fly Flow)
- We have Styles vs. Okada next, and it's a big one.
AJ Styles vs. Okada
The two evade each other early until Okada hits an elevated dropkick early that sends Styles outside. Styles leaps the guard rail, but Okada is right behind him with a body press. We move forward to the two going back and forth with big strikes. Styles avoids a dropkick, which gains him a distinct advantage. He goes for a tornado DDT, but runs into the ref as Okada hits his big neckbreaker before the break.
The ref is till down when we come back, and Takahashi runs in and prevents Okada from doing a Rainmaker, but Okada ends up turning a Styles Clash into a Tombstone anyway. A German Suplex gets two, but the Rainmaker finishes the job.
Winner: Okada via pinfall (Rainmaker)
Okada is emotional after the match.
- We see Shibata briefly speak about his encounters with Nakamura
Shibata vs. Shinsuke Nakamura
The two start out with a knuckle lock, but Nakamura mocks him and the two avoid kicks from each other. Josh Barnett's commentary is really excellent here, as he lends a wealth of knowledge to this match. Nakamura starts after Shibata with a knee in the corner, but Shibata grabs a sleeper and drags both over the top rope. Shibata follows up with a suplex to the ground outside and tosses Nakamura back in.
Shibata throws on a Figure Four to work over Nakamura's knee and limit his offense. After an extended period, Nakamura gets to the ropes. Back on the feet they go at each other with elbows until Nakamura finally kills him with a couple. He misses a knee in the corner, but finds a home for another to set up the running kneelift.
After a brief series of offense by Shibata, Nakamura turns him inside out with a suplex, but gets dropkicked in the face. Shibata applies a sleeper, but misses a PK and eats two Boma Ye and somehow kicks out. Shibata lands a GTS and a PK and gets a big win over Nakamura. A great match.
Winner: Shibata via pinfall (PK)
