How do you make a show sound special? Use the word “special” over and over for your matches.
The now annual Hiroki Vs Chiharu death match in Sapporo is set to take place once again. This odd challenge between the two martial artists has been held twice by DDT since 2010. Hiroki is a nunchaku specialist while Chiharu trains in several martial arts. However, his abilities with the nunchaku has led to a rivalry with Hiroki over who is better trained. DDT capitalises on this everytime they come to Sapporo by pitting the two against each other in nunchaku themed death matches. So far Hiroki has bested Chiharu in both of their encounters. This time they will battle in a Shaolin Temple Death Match, which features plenty of nunchaku, sansetsukon and coathangers placed inside the ring and over the ropes.
At this point I think Don Michael has changed his name back to Michael Nakazawa. I lost track.
