Shuji Ishikawa capped off a great day by defeating Sanshiro Takagi and giving Union a big victory over the TKG48. After the match Sanshiro Takagi said that he will retire at the DDT Sumo Hall show on 24th July. Shuji was shocked at the announcement until Sanshiro cracked up and gave Shuji a Stone Cold Stunner. He then grabbed the mic and said “Gotta lie, motherfucker!”

After a successful match together as a tag team, Kazunari Murakami gave a gift to Seiya Morohashi. He offered Seiya to take his nickname and become BIG Morohashi. Seiya has not decided if he will take it yet.

Cherry Vs Bambi was given high praise and was said to be a very competitive match.

MIKAMI will challenge Isami Kodaka for the DDT Extreme Championship at Shinjuku FACE on 2nd June.

El Generico will return to Union for the same show. Dick Togo & Yasu Urano Vs Seiya/BIG Morohashi & Hiro Tsumaki will also happen. Another big match to take place on the card is Tsuyoshi Kikuchi Vs Genichiro Tenryu!

It really did turn out to be a big day for Shuji Ishikawa. He now reigns supreme as the new KO-D Openweight Champion, defeating Dick Togo for the belt. This is Shuji’s third reign as KO-D Champion, twice as Shuji Ishikawa and once when he wrestled under the mask as Koo. Will we see a similar title run as last time when he was able to hold title defences in Union?

Shuji’s first defence was confirmed to be GENTARO, who kept his word that he would cash in his “Anytime And Anywhere” contract to face the winner of Togo Vs Shuji. The match has been set for 19th June at Korakuen Hall.

Takao Soma declared that he wants to be next in line for a KO-D Title shot after GENTARO gets his match.

Keisuke Ishii was the big winner of the Royal Rumble. His prize was a shot at the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship. This meant the surprise return of Masa Takanashi! The match between Takanashi and Ishii was set for 19th June but when the two shook hands, Ishii gave him a Small Package and won the title! However, Masa then gave Ishii a Low Blow and Small Packaged him to win the title back!

This time Bob Sapp sent three assassins after Danshoku Dino. Choun-Shiryu led the attack along with two fighters from Hong Kong Pro Wrestling but Dino was too manly beyond their wildest expectations to be defeated.

The always bouncy in a good way Yuzuki Aikawa announced that she will compete at DDT’s Sumo Hall show.
