A busy day in Saitama saw Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki quickly cement their place as the strongest three-man team in DDT as they are now the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions. Even though he only began teaming with the Golden Lovers a few weeks ago, Sasaki has blended in perfectly with him even being able to perform the Lovers’ PK Heart finisher with Omega. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi approached the new champions after the match to express a title challenge for 29th April in Korakuen Hall. Their third partner for the match? Yoshihiko! Meanwhile the new champs are busy trying to come up with a new team name. Suggestions include the Golden Orchid, the Golden Bombers and the Golden Cabaret Club.

The result of the semi-main event could be a sign that a new KO-D Openweight Champion will be crowned at the end of the month. Akito tapped out the champion KUDO with a Scorpion Triangle submission. The challener’s confidence is now sky high and he said he has a dream to become champion. KUDO accepted the mistakes he made to lose the tag match and he has nothing to fear from Akito.

Danshoku Dino successfully defended the DDT Extreme Title in a Territorial Death Match. There was an extra cameraman inside the ring while Dino and Guanchulo wrestled. While applying a pin or submission, the wrestler in control had to look at the extra camera and say “Saitama Sumaru” for the pin or submission to count. Dino’s Lip Lock knocked out both the referee and the cameraman allowing Guanchulo to take advantage. But Dino turned the tables and delivered the Danshoku Driver to win. Dino placed the belt on Guanchulo after the match as a farewell gesture.

The Infomercial Match between Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata involved both men having to dance to songs and advertising jingles inbetween moments of wrestling. Honda won the match and by doing so won Hirata’s Right To Challenge contract. Honda now has possession of two of those contracts which allows him two KO-D Title shots whenever he wants. Amon Tsurumi stepped in to clarify that Honda will only defend one contract at a time. So if he gets pinned while holding both contracts he will lose only one of them.

The existence of the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title continues to be under threat while Sanshiro Takagi is the champion. The 999th champion successfully defended the belt in a Battle Royal and afterward tried to retire the belt again. The belt’s creator Posion Sawada appeared and said the belt will be sealed inside an ancient Inca Empire treasure map. Intrigued by the ancient treasure, Takagi asked Sawada for more information. Sawada will only give him more info if he keeps the belt active and defend it again on 29th April.

Emi Sakura was a little frustrated over how popular her opponent Saki Akai was. She fought a little dirty in their match and was able to win with La Magistral Cradle.
