NWA / Zero One
Sorry if this is on the wrong board, but I didn't see a Zero One board.
Ok for those of you more in the know on the current goings on in Japan. What is going on here?
1st of Zero One is under the NWA banner through some loop hole with Inoki (I believe, I could be wrong)
They get the NWA IC tag titles. Then the NWA HW title with Shinya Hashimoto. The NWA screws Hashimoto out of the title to give the belt back to Dan Severn through a fixed ref.
1-does anyoen know for sure this was a shoot? I think it was planned but not sure. It seems Hashimoto wasn't coming back to the states to defend the title so they wanted the title off of him.
Ok now the NWA sends Shawn Hernandez the Natuon champion over for a tour. They set up a angle where Japanese wrestlers wont work with him in tag matches continuing the fued between NWA and Zero One. But then in what was advertised as a national title match Shinya Hashimoto DESTROYS Hernandez in under 5 minutes for the title. hernandez got no offense.
Now some of us on the NWA boards figured this was pay back (another shoot?) by Zero One for taking the title back.
After the match Hashimoto throws the eblt to the ground and calls it garbage and says the only title he wants is the nWA HW title.
But then questiosn start to arise about the match really being a title match. No clear answers are given on the NWA board until today where it is mentioned that is was always a non title match that was announced as a title match by mistake. I could except that if it was only called a title match once, maybe at the show. But this was announced as a title match on numerous times. But as it stands offically Hashimoto is not and never was the national title.
So this leads to new questions.
1-Did the match go down as planed?
2-If the match didn't happen as planned is that why the title wasn't changed?
3-If the match did go as planned was the NWA upset with hashimoto's comments about the title, so they didn't give him the title?
4-Is this all going as planned?
5-Where is the title belt right now Japan or Texas?
And you see me with a smile on my face
And you know I'm a mental case
