A God Damn Pole Match, Ishikawa Thanks Morohashi, Takagi’s In The Dark

September 8, 2015

DDT “OSAKA BAY BLUES SPECIAL 2015”, 13/09/2015
Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium #2

1. Suguru Miyatake, Kazusada Higuchi & Ryota Nakatsu Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Kouki Iwasaki & Kiai Ryuuken Ecchan
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Makoto Oishi, Shunma Katsumata & Shoichi Uchida

6. DDT Extreme Title – Four Corners Four Items Death Match: Antonio Honda (c) Vs Yasu Urano
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo

In a match that will get both late era WCW fans salivating, the DDT Extreme Title is on the line in a four corner pole match. A different item hangs in a bag from each of the poles. It’s been confirmed that two of the bags will contain a bra and a cole miner’s glove.

Hiroshi Fukuda is bringing along Yoshihiko to Osaka. His match with Masa Takanashi is now a 2-on-1 Handicap Match.

UNION “UNION HARVEST FESTIVAL 2015”, 15/09/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Mio Shirai & Ladybeard Vs GENTARO & X
2. Union Fly To Everywhere World Title: Aoi Kizuki (c) Vs Cherry
3. Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato, Yusuke Kubo & Masato Shibata Vs FUMA, MEN’S Teioh, Kazushi Miyamoto & SAGAT
4. Shuji Ishikawa Vs Seiya Morohashi

Before Shuji Ishikawa faces Isami Kodaka for the Union MAX Title, he takes Seiya Morohashi. Despite being a mainstay of Union, Morohashi was not part of the original group that jumped from DDT when the brand formed back in 2005. Morohashi instead joined a few years later. Ishikawa is proud of Morohashi’s time in Union. He brought up one time when he fell ill and had to pull out of a match. Morohashi took his place at the last minute and gave a physically intense performance. I bet the match he is talking about is Morohashi Vs Shigehiro Irie from July 2012. Ishikawa wants to thank Morohashi for always being there for Union.

Mio Shirai has requested GENTARO’s tag partner to be a female wrestler.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? ~DDT DRAMATIC GENERAL ELECTION 2015~”, 27/09/2015
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. King Of Dark Title: Gota Ihashi (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi
1. KO-D Openweight Title: Yukio Sakaguchi (c) Vs X

A confrontation from this past Sunday leads Sanshiro Takagi down a risky path. Gota Ihashi is becoming more and more desperate to get rid of the King Of Dark Title.

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 4” Results

September 6, 2015

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 4”, 06/09/2015
Saitama Kasukabe Hall
320 Fans – Super No Vacancy

0. King Of Dark Title: Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Gota Ihashi (c) with a Reverse Cross Armbreaker (0:30).
*D10 for Gota Ihashi.
0. King Of Dark Title: Dai Suzuki defeated Gota Ihashi (c) by Pinfall when Ihashi missed a Moonsault (1:07).
*D11 for Gota Ihashi.
1. KUDO & Kota Umeda defeated Makoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata when KUDO pinned Katsumata with the Diving Double Knee Drop (7:31).
2. Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Kouki Iwasaki & Saki Akai defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Akai pinned Hirata with the Rookie Award (9:23).
3. Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Suguru Miyatake when Ishii pinned Miyatake with the Kneel Kick (11:15).
4. Yasu Urano defeated Antonio Honda with a Backslide Pin (13:38).
5. Shigehiro Irie defeated Danshoku Dino with a Spear (8:50).
6. 4 Way Tag Team Survival Match: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi, Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki and HARASHIMA & Akito (17:41).
6a. Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki eliminated HARASHIMA & Akito when Sasaki pinned Akito with the Sasaki Hurricanrana (10:35).
6b. Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki eliminated Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi when Sasaki pinned Sakaguchi with the Vietnam Driver II (14:49).
6c. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo eliminated Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki when Endo pinned Sasaki with the Sky Twister Press (17:41).

Quite a bit happened in the main event. Daisuke Sasaki wrestled in Vietnam for Dick Togo’s New Vietnam Pro Wrestling earlier this week and came back with a new finishing move. The first victim of the Vietnam Driver II was none other than the KO-D Openweight Champion, Yukio Sakaguchi! The Golden☆Storm Riders eliminated two teams but lost the match to their next challengers, Happy Motels.

Danshoku Dino was worried about having to face Shigehiro Irie without any backup. Super Sasadango Machine was not in attendance. Ken Ohka made a surprise appearance and stood in Dino’s corner. He tried to interfere in the match but Speared Dino by accident! Irie hit a Spear of his own and pinned Dino. Team Drift and #OhkaEmpire will have a 6-Man Tag Team Elimination match on 13th September to settle their feud.

Yasu Urano pinned Antonio Honda, earning a DDT Extreme Title shot in the process. Honda decided they will fight in a Four Corners Four Items Death Match. A pole with an item attached will be in every corner of the ring. Honda revealed two of the items: a coal miner’s glove and a bra.

Gota Ihashi kept trying to interfere to help his Pigging 2015 team mates in Match #2. Sanshiro Takagi cut him off with Rider Kicks over and over. However, Ihashi took off his tights, handed them to Saki Akai and told her to smother Kazuki Hirata with them. She did so and it worked! After the match Takagi and Ihashi had to be held apart. A King Of Dark Title match between the two was booked for 27th September.

Hikaru Sato is hoping to hold another Hard Hit event in November with Gifu as a possible location. He would also like to put together a show for Ryo Kawamura’s 10th Anniversary at the end of the year.

Daisuke Nakamura requested a rematch with Sato when their bout ended in a draw.

Jun Kasai & Masaharu Tsuchihashi smashed lighttubes over their heads after their fight. They did it in the front row forcing fans to flee from the flying glass.

I think Emi Tomimatsu Vs Hiroyo Matsumoto was the first ever women’s fight in Hard Hit.

Dai Suzuki won even though he had not wrestled at all on the show until that match.

There is still no No. 1 Contender for the KO-D Openweight Title going into this show. It’s safe to say if anyone can pin a Shuten-dōji wrestler in the main event, they will have a good claim to getting the title shot.

6. 4 Way Tag Team Match: Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi Vs Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs HARASHIMA & Akito

If Danshoku Dino can beat Shigehiro Irie, it will help #OhkaEmpire’s chances of getting a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title shot.

KAT-TOO have been working well as a team so far. They face tournament bound KUDO & Kota Umeda.

Normally Gota Ihashi would be in the Pigging 2015 team but he’s locked out of the show because of he is the King Of Dark Champion. Saki Akai has to take his place.

DDT “OSAKA BAY BLUES SPECIAL 2015”, 13/09/2015
Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium #2

1. Strife Love-Hate Drama Wash Blood With Blood Final Settlement: Masa Takanashi Vs Hiroshi Fukuda

3. DDT Extreme Title: Antonio Honda (c) Vs Yasu Urano

I don’t know what the grudge is between Masa Takanashi and Hiroshi Fukuda but it gets settled in Osaka.

UNION “UNION HARVEST FESTIVAL 2015”, 15/09/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Union Fly To Everywhere World Title: Aoi Kizuki (c) Vs Cherry

3. Ryota Nakatsu Vs Kota Umeda
4. Suguru Miyatake Vs Joey Ryan
5. Mizuki Watase Vs Shinjiro Otani
6. Kazusada Higuchi Vs Katsuhiko Nakajima

Mizuki Watase was surprised to learn his opponent for his second pro wrestling match is Shinjiro Otani! Watase never thought he would get such a high profile match right after losing in his debut.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “BAD COMMUNICATION 2015”, 23/09/2015
Shinjuku FACE

1. Animal Planet Special 3 Way Match: J-Soul Pandita III IV Vs Neko Nitta Vs Kris Wolf

4. Texas Tornado Special Handicap Match: Ken Ohka, GENTARO, Shota & Bambi Vs Minoru Fujita, Hi69 & Osamu Namiguchi

The main event features a mixture of alliances between Ganbare☆Wrestling and K-DOJO wrestlers. A grudge between Ken Ohka and Minoru Fujita is the focus but there is also the surprise return of Shota. There are also the shocks of Osamu Namiguchi siding with Fujita and Bambi siding with Ohka.

UNION “10TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 04/10/2015
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa

The final match in Union should obviously be between the two aces fighting over the championship. Isami Kodaka requested Shuji Ishikawa to be his next and possibly last challenger for the Union MAX Title.
