Iron Man Title Hijacked And Bolivia Bound!

July 12, 2012

The unpredictable nature of the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title has struck again! During today’s press conference announcing the remaining card for the DDT 15th Anniversary Show, champion Choun-Shiryu made an appearance to be interviewed about the title being defended in a Royal Rumble match at the show. The interview was disrupted when an anonymous note was passed over to Tsurumi Amon. The note said:

Hello DDT Pro Wrestling,

Today I heard there is an open press conference for DDT. I will take the Iron Man belt from you. Thank you in the future.

SATO

Amon sat there wondering which Sato wrote the letter. Was it Hikaru Sato? Was it Akio Sato from the Orient Express? If it was Akio, does that mean he was sending Hakushi after the champion? All of a sudden, a voice interrupted his train of thought.

“Please excuse me.”

It was independant wrestler Yuki Sato. He entered the room and admitted the letter was from him. Sato told Shiryu that he wanted the title. Shiryu stood up to face him but Sato told him his shoelaces were untied. When Shiryu bend down to tie his shoes, Sato grabbed an object and whacked the champion over the head with it. Sato then pinned Shiryu and officially became the 922nd champion.

Sato then suddenly said he was taking the belt with him to Bolivia, where he was going to defend the belt against none other than Dick Togo!

Tsurumi Amon was shocked but quickly came up with a plan. If no one can get the belt back before the 15th Anniversary Show, then the winner of the Royal Rumble at the event will be declared the No. 1 Contender for the championship. The winner will then be sent to Bolivia (at their own expense) to challenge the champion, no matter who it is.

HARASHIMA Vs Irie Goes Hardcore, Ibushi Vs Kotoge In NOAH, Budokan Card Almost Complete

July 12, 2012

DDT “ROAD TO BUDOKAN 2012”, 22/07/2012
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. MIKAMI Return Match: MIKAMI Vs Tatsumi Fujinami
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Takao Soma & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Hikaru Sato, Michael Nakazawa & Tanomusaku Toba

4. KO-D Tag Team Title: KUDO & Makoto Oishi (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie & Keisuke Ishii
5. Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega Vs Danshoku Dino & YOSHIHIKO

The rivalry between HARASHIMA and Shigehiro Irie has been bubbling up the last couple of months. The two had to be seperated after HARASHIMA’s victory over Irie at the April Korakuen Hall show. Then a rematch in the King Of DDT tournament saw HARASHIMA win again, this time by knockout. Now the grudge will go a step higher when the two meet in a Hardcore match later this month. That won’t even be the last time these two will face each other. As you will see below.

NOAH “GREAT VOYAGE 2012 IN RYOGOKU”, 22/07/2012
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Starting Point Revolution ~ Classmates Confrontation: Taiji Ishimori Vs Masa Takanashi
5. Special Singles Match – NOAH Vs DDT: Atsushi Kotoge Vs Kota Ibushi

Kota Ibushi’s opponent for his return to Pro Wrestling NOAH has been confirmed to be Atsushi Kotoge. The former Osaka Pro wrestler now calls NOAH his home promotion and this match will be one of his biggest challenges since making the switch.

DDT “BUDOKAN PETER PAN 2012 ~ DDT 15TH ANNIVERSARY”, 18/08/2012
Tokyo Nippon Budokan

0. Special Dark Match: Muscle Sakai Vs X
1. Konosuke Takeshita Debut Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs El Generico

HARASHIMA will have to face Irie again when the 15th Anniversary Show rolls around. This time Irie will have Shuji Ishikawa by his side for a big tag team match. HARASHIMA will have to spend a long time thinking who will be the best wrestler to fight BIG “G” BANG with him.
