Both HARASHIMA and Guanchulo were injured at separate shows this week. HARASHIMA suffered an injury to his left leg at today’s main event in Yokkaichi. Guanchulo hurt himself at a Sportiva Entertainment show in Nagoya on 21/9. Both men have been taken off tomorrow’s show in Yokohama and will be examined to see if they will be fit for next week’s Korakuen Hall event. That show is supposed to be headlined by the KO-D Openweight Title match between HARASHIMA and Yasu Urano. HARASHIMA’s injury could put that match into doubt.

DDT “GO! GO! WEST TOUR IN YOKKAICHI 2013” Results

September 22, 2013

DDT “GO! GO! WEST TOUR IN YOKKAICHI 2013”, 22/09/2013
Yokkaichi Australia Memorial
249 – No Vacancy

1. Antonio Honda defeated Michael Nakazawa with the Diving Fist Drop (8:16).
2. Toru Owashi & MIKAMI defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Koji Iwamoto when MIKAMI pinned Iwamoto with the 450 Splash (10:24).
3. DJ Nira defeated Daisuke Sasaki with a Cradle (7:52).
4. KUDO, Yasu Urano & Kengo Takai defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Makoto Oishi & Akito when Urano pinned Oishi with the Tombstone Piledriver (13:37).
5. Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao defeated Kota Ibushi & Masa Takanashi when Ishii pinned Takanashi with the Tiger Suplex (9:57).
6. Yokkaichi Specialty Falls Count Anywhere 5 Way Match: Kenny Omega defeated HARASHIMA, Shigehiro Irie, Hikaru Sato and Danshoku Dino when Omega pinned Dino with the One-Winged Angel (26:14).

The main event was pretty chaotic. So much so that HARASHIMA and Hikaru Sato never knew the match ended when Kenny Omega pinned Danshoku Dino. So they continued fighting, even interrupting Kenny’s victory promo where he said he loves Australia. When the show ended, DDT announced HARASHIMA injured his left leg and was pulled out of tomorrow’s show in Yokohama.

Keisuke Ishii has been building up momentum with his new Tiger Suplex finishing move for his clash against All Japan Pro Wrestling. Ishii will be at the 23/9 AJPW show in Nagoya. He also has the upcoming KO-D Tag Team Title match to look forward to in Korakuen Hall next week.

Wait, wait, wait. DJ Nira won a match? Wow!
