Yuji Okabayashi defeated Kazuki Hirata with the Argentine Backbreaker (8:33).
*Yuji Okabayashi wins Kazuki Hirata’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract.

One of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contracts has been taken away from DDT again. This time it’s in the hands of its strongest wrestler yet, Yuji Okabayashi from Big Japan. Okabayashi defeated DDT’s contract holder Kazuki Hirata at a Big Japan show held today in Yokohama. Kazuki was overwhelmed by the power of his opponent and the results was no surprise. Yuji wasn’t quite sure what the rules of the contract was, but when it was explained to him he said he would like to challenge Shigehiro Irie for the KO-D Openweight Title someday.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN KOKURA” Results

June 14, 2013

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN KOKURA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TORI KASHIWA RICE~”, 14/06/2013
Fukuoka Kokura Gymnasium
282 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Masa Takanashi defeated Isamu Taniguchi with a Crucifix Pin (6:33).
2. DDT x Gamushara Pro Wrestling Collaboration: MIKAMI, Sexy Rosie & Nicholas Jolly Imanaka defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Dynamite Kyushu & Tetsuo when MIKAMI pinned Kyushu with the 450 Splash (10:23).
3. Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki defeated Danshoku Dino & Michael Nakazawa when Sasaki submitted Nakazawa with the Crippler Crossface (11:20).
4. HARASHIMA & Rion Mizuki defeated Akito & Kubo Kibo when Mizuki pinned Kibo with a German Suplex (10:14).
5. Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma defeated Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Makoto Oishi when Irie pinned Oishi with the Flying Sausage (9:26).
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi (c) defeated KUDO & Yasu Urano when Sakaguchi submitted Urano with the Choke Sleeper (17:19).
*V2 for Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi.

Tetsuya Endo was pulled off the show after he suffered a mild concussion at yesterday’s show in Kumamoto when Hikaru Sato kicked him in the head. A lot of the undercard was changed due to this. Michael Nakazawa was upset at the card change because his handicap match with Danshoku Dino against Daisuke Sasaki was changed into a tag team match, removing any advantage he would have had to win the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract from Sasaki. Dino was also upset that he now had to wrestle with Nakazawa in a norml tag team match since Nakazawa is so mentally weak Dino might as well be wrestling on his own.

With a second successful KO-D Tag Team Title defence in the bag, Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi were quick to pick their next challengers. Hikaru nominated Konosuke Takeshita & Akito as their next opponents. Akito accepted the challenge and the match is set for 23rd June in Korakuen Hall.

Keisuke Ishii reminded Shigehiro Irie that they are two shows away until he cashes in his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract. After today’s show, Ishii now only has to defeat Akito in Fukuoka Make Utopia on Sunday to keep his contract and then he will be all clear to cash it in at Korakuen.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN KUMAMOTO” Results

June 13, 2013

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN KUMAMOTO ~DRAMATIC DREAM VERMICELLI SOUP~”, 13/06/2013
Kumamoto Prefecture Hall
184 Fans

1. MIKAMI defeated Michael Nakazawa with the Swanton Bomb (7:35).
2. Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Akito & Tetsuya Endo when Sato pinned Endo with a High Kick (9:01).
3. Sanshiro Takagi & Yuto Aijima defeated Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki when Aijima pinned Honda with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (11:31).
4. Crazy Independent Tag Team Match: Kota Ibushi & TAKA Michinoku defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Ibushi pinned Oishi with the Sit Down Last Ride (9:00).
5. DDT Extreme Title – Two Count Penalty Match: Kenny Omega (c) defeated Masa Takanashi with a Dragon Suplex (17:08).
*V3 for Kenny Omega.
6. HARASHIMA, KUDO & Yasu Urano defeated Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma when KUDO pinned Soma with the Diving Double Knee Drop (16:10).

The rules for the DDT Extreme Title between Kenny Omega and Masa Takanashi match was a penalty was put in place whenever a pinfall resulted in a two count. A new penalty replaced the old one after every two count. After the first nearfall, Kenny had his arms tied together. Next nearfall, Kenny had to wear a blindfold. When Masa got his first two count, both wrestlers then had to wear a blindfold. The audience helped guide them towards each other but they still had trouble, mostly when Kenny threw Masa towards the ropes and then did a Dropkick into thin air. Masa then attacked both Daisuke Kiso and Michael Nakazawa at ringside, thinking they were both Kenny. They fled outside the ring and upon hearing the noise, Kenny dove at them through the ropes while still blindfolded. With the referee down, Masa took off his blindfold, stole Kiso’s referee shirt, put it on himself and guided Kenny towards Kiso. Kenny pinned Kiso, Masa counted to three and then he attacked Kenny as he was celebrating what he thought was his victory. Yukinori Matsui ran down to the ring to sort out the confusion but that led to him and Kiso officiating the match at the same time. Each ref called a two count when Kenny and Masa exchanged pinfall attempts so they decided both wrestlers had to have their hands restrained and their ankles bound together. Omega finally won when he was somehow able to give Takanashi a Dragon Suplex for the three count.

UNION “NIMOMAKEZU RAIN 2013” Results

June 9, 2013

UNION “NIMOMAKEZU RAIN 2013”, 09/06/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
259 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Madoka, Gabaiji-chan & Kaori Yoneyama defeated Nazo Fukumen A, Nazo Fukumen B & Nazo Fukumen P when Yoneyama pinned Fukumen P with an Backwards Rotating Pin (9:08).
2. Toru Sugiura defeated Daichi Kazato with the Dangerous Dragon Sleeper (8:21).
3. SAGAT defeated Ryu Gouma with the Grind Gore (3:05).
4. Tsukushi & Aoi Kizuki defeated Cherry & Masako Takanashi when Kizuki pinned Cherry with the Cross Arm German Suplex (10:46).
5. Idea Pocket Presents: Menso~re Oyaji defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with a School Boy (0:25).
5a. Menso~re Oyaji defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with a Camel Clutch (3:22).
6. Jun Kasai, Nazo Fukumen K & Nazo Fukumen M defeated Isami Kodaka, Shuji Ishikawa & FUMA when Kasai pinned FUMA with the Pearl Harbour Splash (16:22).

The Nazo Fukumen stood tall in the main event, defeating the Union home team of Shuji Ishikawa, Isami Kodaka & FUMA. However, there was trouble in the ranks when Nazo Fukumen A took offence to Nazo Fukumen P insulting Union. A gave P a Spear and then unmasked to reveal what everyone knew all along, it was Ken Ohka. The Ganbare☆Wrestling founder cried and told the Union wrestlers to hang in there. He bowed for forgiveness and pleaded to be accepted back into Union so he could help fight what he created. Two new Nazo Fukumen then appeared, one coloured red (and sort of looking like a Crazy Monkey) and the other coloured blue (and sort of looking like a certain Union Diva Commissioner). Fukumen P introduced them as the real leaders behind the group.

Jun Kasai reluctantly teamed up with the Nazo Fukumen and did not find being kidnapped by them funny. Kasai demanded a singles match against either Shuji Ishikawa or Isami Kodaka at a future Union show.

Menso~re Oyaji wasn’t really interested in wrestling Hiroshi Fukuda today, even with the reward of dating Riki Seibi on the line. Oyaji quickly pinned Fukuda but Seibi was bored by the match and requested a restart. Oyaji won the rematch but was generous enough to set up a double date involving himself, Fukuda, Seibi and Tsubasa Amami afterward.

Before the women’s tag match began Aoi Kizuki told Cherry the Fly To Everywhere Title belt is cute but Cherry is not. Kizuki now has a claim for a title shot after she pinned the champion.

With the help of some medical experts, Ryu Gouma announced that SAGAT will be able to live a healthy as a Chinese Vampire. He wasn’t able to prevent the side effect of SAGAT’s constant hopping though. Gouma also discovered that SAGAT’s past memories will be recovered once he eats some bread. He spent the match trying to force feed bread to the vampire and eventually succeeded, but only after he lost the match. It took a few minutes but SAGAT’s memories eventually came back.

tww4thmeeting

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE FOURTH MEETING”, 06/06/2013
Shibuya Deseo
140 Fans – No Vacancy

1. KANNA Vs Shoko Nakajima ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).
2. Miyu Yamashita defeated Chikage Kiba with the Penalty Kick (4:18).

Miyu Yamashita countered Chikage Kiba’s Cross Kneelock into a Penalty Kick to win the match and strengthen her claim that she is the ace of Tokyo Joshi Pro. However, she thinks she will have to beat Kiba and KANNA more times to cement her status. Kiba thought her defeat was “hella frustrating” and wants a rematch.

KANNA was a second away from submitting Shoko Nakajima with a Boston Crab, but time ran out. The debuting Nakajima felt she was only wrestling at 1%. She promises next time she will fight at 100%.

The next Tokyo Joshi Pro preview event will take place on 11th July, again in Shibuya Deseo.

Hikaru Sato is considering giving a KO-D Tag Team Title shot to some younger wrestlers. He and Yukio Sakaguchi will face Akito & Tetsuya Endo and they will judge if their opponents are good enough to fight for the championship. Konosuke Takeshita was also brought up but Sato thinks he is not entitled to get an opportunity.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN KOKURA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TORI KASHIWA RICE~”, 14/06/2013

6. HARASHIMA, KUDO & Yasu Urano Vs Yuto Aijima, Azul Dragon & Michael Nakazawa
7. Keisuke Ishii Vs Akito

As explained below, the main event determines who will face Shigehiro Irie for the KO-D Openweight Title at Korakuen Hall later this month.

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2013”, 23/06/2013
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Battle Royal: Yoshihiko (c) Vs X
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

The main event will change if Keisuke Ishii loses his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract at any show before then. The contract is the only claim Ishii has to a title shot and he has confirmed he will cash it in at Korakuen Hall. Between now and then he risks losing the contract to either a member of Ura-Shima-Kudo, a member of the Golden Rendezvous or Akito. If Akito beats Ishii, he will also cash it in at Korakuen Hall and take on Irie for the KO-D Title.

Isami Kodaka and Yuko Miyamoto are scheduled to wrestle on the show, most likely teaming together.

The first round draw for this year’s King Of DDT tournament will take place in Korakuen Hall on 23rd June.

Keisuke Ishii Vs Akito is booked for the show on 16th June. This is the last DDT event before the Korakuen show. So if Ishii still has his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract then the winner of this match will most likely cash it in at Korakuen. In other Right To Challenge news, Kazuki Hirata won the contract back from the Gatoh Move group.

Daisuke Sasaki will miss the 23/6 Korakuen show to recover from a knee ligament injury. He will still wrestle at the shows he is advertised for before then.
