On October 28th at Pro Wrestling NOAH’s DEMOLITION STAGE 2023 In FUKUOKA, NOAH megastar Kenoh captured the GHC Heavyweight Championship for the third time in career when he defeated Jake Lee, putting an end to Lee’s seven month reign as the champion.
Kenoh forced Jake Lee to tap out to the Kenoh Special submission move to win the title.
Following his huge championship victory, Kenoh made a few post match comments which included praising Jake Lee:
I have won the GHC Heavyweight belt, and from now on, I’m going to create a spectacular scene of Pro Wrestling Noah. Hey, first of all, Jake Lee, you’re amazing. I have always thought that he was an outside, but recently the director said something in the media that I didn’t know, that he had a yearly contract or something like that. Is that a lie? Is that true? Didn’t Jake say that he didn’t know if he’d be gone soon? Really? Is that also a mistake? I don’t really know, but if the director is saying that, then he must be right. He signed a yearly contract, right? It’s okay, with you here, I’m even stronger. I don’t plan on getting on with you, just because you are here. You can challenge me for this belt at any time, and if you stand before me, I’ll just beat you completely again. And, Manabu Soya? Finally, you are here, but let me say this with conviction; from now on you’ll be my rival, lets aim even higher, and then we’ll see more of the battles of the GHC, the battles of Noah, and that spectacular view.
Kenoh
Kenoh’s first defense of his third reign of the GHC Heavyweight Championship will be on January 2, 2024 against Manabu Soya at NOAH THE NEW YEAR 2024.
