With each passing night of G1 Climax 32, the stakes get higher for the stars of NJPW, and even wrestlers who got off to good starts are finding it’s do or die.
That’s the situation in Night 15, the second of two cards from Hiroshima, with Hirooki Goto, sitting at 2-2 in C Block, facing an elimination bout. His tournament is over unless he finds a way to get past the Ace, Hiroshi Tanahashi, who enters the night with a 3-1 record.
Filthy Tom Lawlor has been a fan favorite and has handled himself admirably in the monster-filled A Block, but he too must win on this Wednesday evening, and his task is unenviable: He has to beat the Rainmaker, Kazuchika Okada, who comes in off his loss to Jonah and will be doing everything possible to avoid a second straight defeat.
Somewhat surprisingly, Evil is in the same boat thanks to a slow start in the tourney. He’ll go up against Zack Sabre Jr., and you can bet he’ll have the full assistance of the House of Torture to ensure he is still alive at night’s end.

Will Ospreay, Jeff Cobb and Aaron Henare def. Yoshi-Hashi, Yuto Nakashima and Ryohei Oawa by submission
This seems somewhat unfair for Yoshi-Hashi, getting teamed with two Young Lions against the United Empire trio. Kevin Kelly notes that Jeff Cobb has two winnable matches left in his block, though also needs some help if he were to win it.
Every member of United Empire look in full control as they show off their new t-shirts, but Yoshi-Hashi tags in to unleash dropkicks all around and nail Ospreay with a Head Hunter for a near fall. Ospreay’s handspring kick is the response, forcing tags for both teams.
The typically fired up Nakashima wants to suplex Henare, who nearly pins the Young Lion before turning to the Ultima, his full nelson finisher. Nakashima taps fairly quickly.
