6. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated KUDO, Masa Takanashi & Yukio Sakaguchi when HARASHIMA pinned Takanashi with the Somato (14:39).

KUDO, Masa Takanashi and Yukio Sakaguchi announced the name of their new unit. They are now called Shuten-dōji, named after a Japanese legend who had a thirst for sake. DJ Nira actually came up with the name while drunk. Unfortunately for them their first match under the new name ended in defeat. HARASHIMA and KUDO had a staredown after the match and both teams stepped in to seperate them.

For the last month Soma Takao has gotten the better of Danshoku Dino, highlighted by Takao pinning Dino to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as part of Team Drift. Dino was finally able to get one back and beat Takao in Singles action.

Sanshiro Takagi and Antonio Honda fought in an Infomercial Match that will be aired on Teletama next month. They had to promote Blackout Energy Drink by drinking cans of the product as they wrestled each other. Fans were also given signs advertising the drink to hold during the match. In a sight similar to Stone Cold’s beer bashes, Takagi made Honda spit out the drink with a Stunner and after the match celebrated by smashing cans together and pouring them into his mouth.

The night did not end there for Takagi. He also became the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. What makes it special is he became the 999th champion. Kazuki Hirata came to the show as champion but was attacked and pinned backstage by Daisuke Sasaki. Hirata came out at the start of the show demanding Sasaki give the belt back. The Battle Royal began and the belt changed hands from Sasaki to DJ Nira to Makoto Oishi and then back to Hirata who went on to win the match. Hirata reappeared later in the show to brag about winning back the title, even saying “If you smell what Hirata is cookin’!” Takagi snuck into the ring, grabbed the belt, struck Hirata with it and pinned him to win the title. Takagi said he wanted to be the 999th champion and will hold the title forever so nobody can become the 1000th champion!

Dick Togo made an appearance to announce he has moved to Vietnam and will open up a wrestling school there.

BOYZ “BOYZ DOLL FESTIVAL SPECIAL ~ONNA MATSURI 3~”, 04/03/2014
Shinjuku FACE
531 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Soma Takao Vs Kazuki Hirata ended in a Time Limit Draw (15:00).
2. KUDO defeated Mitomi Masayuki with a Spin Kick (7:44).
3. Daisuke Sasaki & Masa Takanashi defeated Keisuke Ishii & Akito when Takanashi pinned Akito with the Takatonic (12:12).

5. Isami Kodaka, Kota Ibushi & Tetsuya Endo defeated Makoto Oishi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Konosuke Takeshita when Kodaka submitted Oishi with the 419 (14:04).

Hiroshi Fukuda wanted to test himself against the KO-D Champion, HARASHIMA. So he dusted off the Union Non-Certified US Heavyweight Title for this occasion and challenged HARASHIMA to take it from him. HARASHIMA accepted but before the match began Fukuda said the match would be fought under Shinjuku Kabukicho State Rules. He handed Daisuke Kiso the 18 page official rule book and told him to follow every rule in it. The rules just so happened to protect the champion. For example HARASHIMA wasn’t allowed to run towards Fukuda whenever Fukuda was not standing. This prevented HARASHIMA from doing his Somato finisher. Fukuda knocked down Kiso and grabbed a tambourine to strike HARASHIMA with. But the challenger knocked him down and hit the Somato while Kiso was recovering. When Kiso got his wits back he saw HARASHIMA pinning Fukuda and counted to three. HARASHIMA wins the US Title!

Or so it seemed. At the end of the show, BOYZ principal Johnny Edojima approached HARASHIMA and told him he never gave permission for the US Title to be defended. The title change does not count and HARASHIMA had to give back the US Title (medal) to Fukuda. Due to Shinjuku Kabukicho State Rules this counts as a successful defence for Fukuda. Because why not?

DDT “OSAKA NORTHERN STORY”, 02/03/2014
Osaka Umeda Nasci Hall
350 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Lucha Libre Rules: Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi defeated Kiai Ryuuken Ecchan & DJ Nira when Takagi pinned Nira with La Magistral Cradle (8:46).
2. MIKAMI defeated Akito with a Boomerang School Boy (9:35).

6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao (c) defeated Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Sakaguchi when Irie pinned Oishi with the Flying Sausage (13:34).
*V1 for Team Dream Futures.
7. KUDO & Masa Takanashi defeated HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano when KUDO pinned HARASHIMA with a Buzzsaw Kick (14:41).

It’s been a bad weekend for HARASHIMA. First he loses the DDT Extreme Title to Danshoku Dino and then he gets pinned by his upcoming KO-D Openweight Title challenger KUDO. If that’s not enough, it looks like KUDO has left Ura-Shima-Kudo to side with Masa Takanashi. The two have bonded over their love of alcohol with Takanashi calling KUDO his big brother. Takanashi also invited Yukio Sakaguchi to join their new unit. At first it looked like Sakaguchi ignored them but then he returned with his own liquor bottle and joined them for a drink.

Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Sakaguchi teamed up and called themselves Sakaguchi Dojo. But when they failed to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles they immediately disbanded.

Konosuke Takeshita scored a big win over Antonio Honda in their tag team match. After the match Takeshita told the fans he will be entering a Tokyo university in April after living in Osaka for his entire life. He promises he will work out and return to Osaka as a huge sized wrestler.

Whenever Kota Ibushi and Gota Ihashi are in the ring together, Ibushi usually comes up with a bad idea. This time it was a 2nd Rope Piledriver!

Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga will get a match against the Golden Lovers on the 21st March Korakuen Hall show. However due to their losing streak the KO-D Tag Team Titles will not be on the line.

Yukinori Matsui announced details for his 20th Anniversary show in Osaka Bodymaker Colosseum #2 on 13th April. The show will feature Kushinbo Kamen Vs Kikutaro.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN HIROSHIMA ~ DRAMATIC DREAM TOUKASAN”, 01/03/2014
Hiroshima Industrial Hall West Exhibition Hall
340 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Keisuke Ishii defeated Gota Ihashi with the Fisherman Buster (6:54).
2. MIKAMI defeated Kenshin Konno with the Swanton Bomb (8:50).
3. Lucha Libre Rules: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Yuto Aijima defeated Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Rey Paroma when Takagi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (11:49).

5. Yukio Sakaguchi & Makoto Oishi defeated Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao when Sakaguchi submitted Takao with the Cobra Clutch (8:47).
6. KUDO, Masa Takanashi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Akito, Tetsuya Endo & Konosuke Takeshita when KUDO pinned Endo with the Diving Double Knee Drop (15:55).
7. DDT Extreme Title – New York Rules: Danshoku Dino defeated HARASHIMA (c) with a Kissing Pin (12:05).
*HARASHIMA fails in V5. Danshoku Dino becomes the 26th DDT Extreme Champion!

Very few men can beat Danshoku Dino in a kissing contest. HARASHIMA found that out the hard way. The two fought in a New York Rules match for the DDT Extreme Title. In order to win you had to kiss your opponent as you pin them for the entire three seconds. HARASHIMA trained as much as he could but when it came to actually kissing Dino in the match, he couldn’t find the courage to do it. This came to be his downfall as he had victory in his hands when he flattened Dino with the Somato. But when HARASHIMA finally had to courage to do the kiss, Dino had enough time to recover and roll the champion into a Kissing Small Package for the three count! Dino now holds the Extreme Title for the sixth time in the title’s history.

Masa Takanashi has a new diet to make himself strong. He will go around Japan drinking the best liquor the country has to offer and that will somehow help him become the KO-D Openweight Champion. Bottoms up.

Trouble just seem to have a habit of finding Yukio Sakaguchi lately. After spending a month getting in fights with KUDO, trouble now seems to be brewing between Sakaguchi and Shigehiro Irie. The two came close to blows after Sakaguchi submitted Soma Takao in their tag team match.

The ring truck parked inside the building was featured in the 4 Way Match. Kota Ibushi tried to reverse the truck over Michael Nakazawa and also Moonsaulted off the truck onto everyone else.

This time around it was Antonio Honda who requested for Lucha Libre rules against Sanshiro Takagi’s team. Unfortunately the Monster Army’s record in Lucha Libre continues to be poor as Takagi avoided the Diving Fist Drop and pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle. Toru Owashi told the fans afterwards that they will do more and more Lucha Libre matches around Japan. Viva Mexico!

Gota Ihashi replaced Guanchulo in the opener because of an injury Guanchulo suffered during training a few days ago.
