Naoki Tanisaki had to cancel his appearance for unknown reasons. Tomahawk T.T appeared for the first time since January to take his place....
YAMATO congratulated Tominaga on the win, and said last month it was Tommy inviting them. This month, they were inviting him to fight alongside them. Tommy happily accepted. He also admitted the newly won Platinum Trap Alpha probably did not suit him. However, he knew someone who it would suit. He called out....Super Shenlong! The 3rd iteration of the character came out. YAMATO wondered if he was a certain ugly wrestler that had also been fighting with them. he got as far as "Wa-" before Shenlong cut him off. he new Shenlong was also invited to the group. YAMATO deferred to Takagi for the unit name, since he was better at it. The new unit is named "Akatsuki" (暁), which means Dawn, or Daybreak.
By winning KING OF CHOP, Kobayashi earned the right to ask for anything he wanted. His wish was to enter KING OF GATE. It was decided he would replace CIMA in the tournament. CIMA will not participate. He also said he hoped to one day accompany CIMA to Mexico for training. CIMA said he could memorize 100 words of Spanish by the next Sambo Hall show, he would let him come. He warned him that he would be tested in the ring next month. Kobayashi gave the customary closing speech.
