Evil defeats Hiromu Takahashi: Sengoku Lord July 25

Result: Evil defeats Hiromu Takahashi

Match:

• Dick Togo accompanies Evil to ringside.
• Late in the match, Hiromu inadvertently hit Red Shoes in the corner. This brought Togo into  the ring. Together, Togo and Evil hit a magic killer. Togo went to the top rope, but Takahashi pushed Evil into the ropes and Togo crotched himself.
• Hiromu hit time bomb, but Evil kicked out. Hiromu hit a second move, but Togo pulled the referee out of the ring and proceeded to choke Takahashi out.
• All this left Hiromu open to getting hit with a low blow and then Togo choked him out.
• It doesn’t make sense that nobody from LIJ came to ringside to balance things out.
• Evil hit Darkness Falls and then Everything is Evil for the pinfall victory
