VICTORY SPEECH
TOMOHIRO ISHII: "Oi, listen up! Tonight, right here in the heart of the G1 Climax, I stood across the ring from my CHAOS brother, Hirooki Goto. It was a war, a war that we both knew we had to give everything for. Goto, you're a hell of a competitor, and tonight, I came out on top. But remember, this is the G1, and anything can happen.”
"Now, I've got two points on the board, and that's just the beginning. Zack Sabre Jr., you're up next. You might be technical, you might be crafty, but I'm “The Stone Pitbull”, and I'll be ready for whatever you throw at me. Get ready for another war, because this G1 is far from over!"
PRESS CONFERENCE
REPORTER: "Tomohiro Ishii, congratulations on your hard-fought victory tonight. How are you feeling about your performance and the upcoming match against Zack Sabre Jr.?"
TOMOHIRO ISHII: "Arigato. Tonight was a tough one. Goto and I, we left it all out there. He's a warrior, and I respect him. As for Zack Sabre Jr., he's a different challenge altogether. But I thrive on challenges. This is the G1, the toughest tournament in the world, and I'm here to prove that I can go through anyone. Zack, you better be ready, because when you face “The Stone Pitbull”, there's no holding back. I'm here for the fight, and I'm here to win this damn thing!"
