Young Bucks Blame NJPW Title Loss on New Day (Video), Lucha Underground’s Sexy Star Unmasks & Announces Career Change

Young Bucks Blame Title Loss on the New Day

As previously noted, the Young Bucks and Kenny Omega lost the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Championships at last night’s NJPW Kizuna Road event, with Matt Sydal, Ricochet and Kojima becoming new champions. The trio wore WWE brand New Day merch down to the ring, emulating their entrance.

After dropping the titles, the Bucks posted the following video on YouTube, blaming Kenny Omega and his obsession with the New Day for the loss, stating “New Day sucks, and if you don’t think so, maybe you suck too”. They then cornered Omega – the current Bullet Club leader – and proceeded to chant “New Day Sucks” at him, before walking out. Of course, this is all in good fun and not in any way a part of any actual New Japan storylines, but the online feud between these two teams has been more entertaining than most angles in wrestling recently. 

Sexy Star Making Big Career Change

Former Lucha Underground Champion Sexy Star made an appearance at a boxing event in Mexico City last night, unmasking and announcing that she was making a big move into the sport. Star, whose real name is Dulce Maria Garcia Rivas, is married to 58-10 Mexican boxer Jhonny Gonzalez, and trained in kickboxing and Muay Thai. She has stepped back considerably from wrestling at this point, but is expected to continue on with Lucha Underground going forward. The only non-LU appearances she’s been listed in over the past few years have been a handful of major AAA events in 2014, and one in 2015.
