DDT are planning ahead with their KO-D Title matches in the next couple of months. A 3 Way No. 1 Contender’s Match will take place between HARASHIMA, KUDO and Yasu Urano on 4th May. The winner will face the KO-D Openweight Champion in Sapporo on 27/5. Also, this year’s King Of DDT tournament will take place on 30th June and 7th July.
Despite losing the match for his side, Yasu Urano told Masa Takanashi that he will not hold the KO-D Title for long. Yano said his Crying Wolf stablemate Yuji Hino is the strongest fighter in DDT history and that it would be he taking on Hino for the KO-D Title in Sapporo. HARASHIMA gave Takanashi encouragement and wished him luck. KUDO said he guarantees 100% that he will win the 3 Way, win back the KO-D Title and main event Budokan Hall.
The Anti-Establishment of Sanshiro Takagi & Takao Soma has come to an end, only for a new threat to emerge. Takagi & Soma held an impromptu KO-D Tag Team Title match against Homoiro Clover Z duo Akito & Hiroshi Fukuda. The match barely lasted a minute and the champs retained in the quickest title match in the championship’s history. A rematch was set afterwards but without the title on the line. Instead the losing team must have their unit split up. What followed was a big upset when Hiroshi Fukuda pinned Sanshiro Takagi and put an end to their CM Punk inspired ways. However, Takagi had a sneaky trick up his sleeve. He immediately formed a new unit with Takao Soma and one with an even more poisonous inspiration. Takagi’s new unit is called New World Japan, the nWJ!
The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship reached a milestone today, gaining its 900th champion and 900th title change. Kana, now representing the Wrestling New Classic promotion, became the 900th champion aswell as the 902nd and 904th champion before finally escaping from the men. Looks like Michael Nakazawa is continuing his advances on the World Famous female wrestler. Nakazawa and Kana will next be inside a DDT ring together on 22/4.
Makoto Oishi will cash in his Ken Ohka Anytime, Anywhere contract in Yokohama on 22/4.
Tomomitsu Matsunaga was approached by Batten Tamagawa to talk about the Right To Challenge Tag Anytime, Anywhere contract. Batten asked if he could be Matsunaga’s tag team partner so they could cash in the contract together and win the KO-D Tag Team Title. Matsunaga refused and said it is because he really wants to win the title for the first time in five years. He thinks Batten is not good enough to tag with him and proved it by beating him in a match.
