5. Ganpuro-gun Vs Tomodachi-gun ~Declaration Of War~: Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Osamu Namiguchi Vs Minoru Fujita, Madoka & Yukihiro Abe

So far Dr. Kirico has been either Atsushi Maruyama or Shuichiro Katsumura hidden under the mask. I’m not sure if J-Soul Pandita III IV is aware that it’s a different person everytime, it probably just sees the evil doctor that killed one of its kin two years ago.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2016”, 28/02/2016
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. King Of Dark: Mizuki Watase (c) & Kota Umeda Vs Hiroshi Fukuda & Guanchulo

7. KO-D Openweight Title Next Challenger Final: HARASHIMA Vs Shigehiro Irie

The DNA team haven’t convinced T2Hide that they deserve their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title shot. Kazuki Hirata pinned Kouki Iwasaki with his Miracle Cradle in their non-title trios match. However the DNA team were able to beat Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi in a separate trios match the day before.

LiLiCo will be in attendance. She is still the current Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. I’m certain we’ll be introduced to her partners for Sumo Hall. Who could she get to face the Kawaii Connection? Should she fight fire with fire in this situation?

1. MAX LUCHA LIBRE Maximo Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) defeated Makoto Oishi with the Vietnam Driver II (10:37).
*V4 for Daisuke Sasaki.
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Shunma Katsumata & Kouki Iwasaki when Hirata pinned Iwasaki with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (10:11).
3. 3 Way Match: Kengo Takai defeated Danshoku Dino and Guanchulo when Takai pinned Guanchulo with a Lariat (7:40).
4. Konosuke Takeshita, Tetsuya Endo & Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Gota Ihashi when Takeshita pinned Ihashi with the German Suplex (10:27).
5. Isami Kodaka defeated Kota Umeda with the Isamuashi Zan (10:57).
6. Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao defeated HARASHIMA, Akito & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Irie pinned Matsunaga with the Beast Bomber (11:20).
7. Antonio Honda defeated Yasu Urano with the Diving Fist Drop (19:28).

In the main event Antonio Honda got a much needed boost of momentum by beating Yasu Urano. Afterwards Honda spoke about recently turning 38 years old and compared it to The Walking Dead. He’s been in a pessimistic mood as if he was in a world filled with zombies. Even if he gets rid of the zombies he never knows when he could die and turning 38 makes him feel like he’s one step closer to death. However last year he had a good time wrestling against younger people like Kazuki Hirata and Akito, especially his match with Akito for the DDT Extreme Title. It was moments like them that reminds him why he is dedicated to pro wrestling. He invited the rest of Happy Motels into the ring and told them, the referee and the audience to embrace these moments with him. In the post-match interview Honda brought up The Walking Dead again and explained that wrestling Urano was like fighting a zombie. No matter how hard he hit him he always came back. The only way to beat him was to shoot him through the head. But since he had no guns he had to use the Bionic Elbow and Diving Fist Drop instead.

Shigehiro Irie continues to steam roll through his opponents. His only thoughts right now are beating HARASHIMA later this month and his recent victories are keeping him sharp.

Kota Umeda confronted Amon Tsurumi at the start of the show asking if he could be inserted into the KO-D No. 1 Contender’s Match on 28th February after he beats Isami Kodaka. Tsurumi told him that would be impossible but relented when Umeda threatened him. Umeda was happy with the decision and now more motivated for his match. Unfortunately he couldn’t beat Kodaka and the KO-D Openweight Champion now has a clean sweep over Shuten-dōji in singles matches except for KUDO. Kodaka said he will wait for KUDO to return.

In a non-title match T2Hide were able to beat their upcoming challengers from DNA. Kazuki Hirata told the DNA wrestlers to do their best training because the match result will be the same at Korakuen Hall. Kouki Iwasaki was annoyed that he was pinned from a Cradle and is determined not to let that happen again when the titles are on the line.

Daisuke Sasaki interrupted the opening announcements to demand his match with Makoto Oishi to be a MAX Lucha Libre Maximo Title Match. He beat Oishi to add another successful title defence to his reign. Backstage Sasaki accused DDT of probably being behind a conspiracy to not book title defences for him.

0. King Of Dark Title: Masa Takanashi defeated Mizuki Watase (c) with an Uwabami (8:42).
*D2 for Mizuki Watase.
1. Antonio Honda defeated Kota Umeda with the Diving Fist Drop (8:15).

5. MAX LUCHA LIBRE Maximo Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) defeated Guanchulo with the Cross Facelock (18:35).
*V3 for Daisuke Sasaki.
6. HARASHIMA, Akito & Yasu Urano defeated Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao when HARASHIMA pinned Ishii with the Somato (16:30).

Shigehiro Irie had to be held back from HARASHIMA after the main event.

Guanchulo failed to bring the MAX LUCHA LIBRE Maximo Title back to Chile. Daisuke Sasaki gave him an Avalanche Pedigree followed by the Cross Facelock to win. He offered a handshake after the match but pulled back to insult Guanchulo. The act made Shunma Katsumata angry at ringside. Guanchulo said he felt like a wimp but training in DNA will make him stronger.

Tetsuya Endo had to miss the show when it was suspected he had acute enteritis. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi didn’t care and turned their match against the New Gen Combo into a Handicap Match against Konosuke Takeshita. Dino also talked about wanting to “collect a lot of ass” so he can beat Akebono in Sumo Hall next month. Takeshita was able to win when he pushed Oishi’s face into Dino’s ass and then German Suplexed him. Takeshita said he worked hard to make up for Endo’s absence.

Kouki Iwasaki asked T2Hide to recognise the DNA team’s talent and give them a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title match. Amon Tsurumi agreed that they deserve a shot for beating two thirds of the champions. Sanshiro Takagi refused because he felt they aren’t experienced enough but Kazuki Hirata stepped in and accepted the challenge. Hirata wants revenge for being pinned by his junior, Iwasaki. The match will take place in Korakuen Hall on 28th February.

Mizuki Watase has been given the task to beat a DDT veteran to fully earn an escape from the King Of Dark Title scene. If Masa Takanashi loses it will cap off a big fall from grace after his failed KO-D Openweight Title shot.

1. Saki Akamiya Vs Poison KANNA

Saki Akamiya got her first win over Snake World Joshi and it has left Poison Sawada JULIE rattled. An attempt to cure Poison KANNA from his snake magic failed. His retaliation is to send KANNA after Akamiya and prove that defeat was just a fluke.

6. 3 Way Tag Match: Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao defeated Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu and HARASHIMA & Akito when Irie pinned Nakatsu with the Beast Bomber (11:48).
7. Daisuke Sasaki & Shuji Ishikawa defeated Antonio Honda & Tetsuya Endo when Sasaki pinned Honda after the Splash Mountain from Ishikawa (15:51).

Looks like the dog costume wasn’t just for show. Daisuke Sasaki brought Shuji Ishikawa to the ring on a leash for their main event match against one half of the KO-D Tag Team Champions. They beat Tetsuya Endo & Antonio Honda with Ishikawa’s strength as the deciding factor. Sasaki mocked the champions after the match. They always say they train hard and are the future of DDT but Sasaki just showed them reality. He and his cute little dog Shuji will send them from Sumo Hall to the graveyard!

The triangle scramble over the KO-D Openweight Title continued with the latest battle involving Isami Kodaka, HARASHIMA & Shigehiro Irie in a 3 Way Tag. Irie scored the latest win and was happy with it. He repeated his claim that he will defeat HARASHIMA this month and then Isami Kodaka next month to become the new KO-D Champion. He might cry when it happens but it will be tears of joy.

It took a miracle but T2Hide won back the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles from #OhkaEmpire thanks to Kazuki Hirata. It was an Elimination Match with Over The Top Rope rules. Sanshiro Takagi was willing to risk his place in the match when he attempted to Suplex KENSO out of the ring to the floor but he was talked out of doing it. Takagi & Toru Owashi were both eliminated at the same time, giving the champs a 3 on 1 advantage. However the tables turned when Takagi interfered and Dropkicked KENSO off the top rope to the floor outside to eliminate him. Hirata then pinned Super Sasadango Machine to bring the match down to himself and Danshoku Dino. The Hirata GO! Glasses came out but Hirata was slowed down with the Lip Lock. Dino got distracted long enough for Hirata to recover and Dropkick Dino out of the ring to bring the titles back to T2Hide!

KENSO did what he’s been doing a lot lately, demanding a rematch. His partners weren’t feeling it. Dino already has a match set for Sumo Hall next month and Sasadango is preparing to enroll in a NHK High School course that begins in April. Both decided to leave #OhkaEmpire for now. KENSO then received a video message from Michael Nakazawa. In it, Nakazawa said KENSO doesn’t look interesting, like a punchline without the joke. However he is willing to join forces with KENSO to destroy Crazy & President at Sumo Hall.

During Match #3 Gota Ihashi turned his back to Saki Akai and bravely asked her to go out with him with the assumption that they will someday get married. He was overjoyed when he felt arms wrapping around him. But it wasn’t Akai giving him a hug, it was Yukio Sakaguchi choking him out with a Sleeper Hold.

Guanchulo used a Brainbuster Slam he calls the Guanchulo y Medio to win the 3 Way Match. He is now getting prepared to win back the MAX Maximo Title from Daisuke Sasaki. According to Guanchulo MAX LUCHA LIBRE has been in trouble ever since Sasaki won the title and took it out of Chile. Guanchulo aims to win it back and bring the belt to DNA as well as back home.

In an unusual turn for King Of Dark Title matches, Mizuki Watase Vs Yasu Urano went on for over 16 minutes and was quite exciting. Although Watase lost the match Amon Tsurumi said it was strange he was the champion instead of someone like Gota Ihashi. Tsurumi decided it will be best for Watase to defend the title against his seniors instead of the usual outcasts. If he wants to get out of dark match hell, he’ll have to beat a DDT veteran. Watase’s next defence will be against Masa Takanashi on 11th February.

Several matches were announced for March. The 1st March BOYZ show has Takeshita & Endo Vs Akito & Soma Takao as well as Sakaguchi Vs Makoto Oishi. There is another BOYZ show on 6th March with HARASHIMA, Takeshita & Takanashi Vs Akito, Endo & Sakaguchi as well as Keisuke Ishii Vs Kota Umeda.

YaroZ has a show in Shinkiba on 1st March has Ihashi & Dai Suzuki Vs Kengo Mashimo & Zeus in a Boxing Match. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Yumehito Imanari and Ryuichi Sekine Vs Takayuki Ueki are also on the card. Finally DNA on 5th March has Kota Umeda Vs Kouki Iwasaki in the main event. DNA’s two newest rookies will debut when Daiki Shimomura faces Umeda and Tsunehiro Shimatani takes on Iwasaki.

150 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yu & Nodoka Onesan defeated Rika Tatsumi & Azusa Takigawa when Onesan submitted Takigawa with a Cross Armbreaker (9:59).
2. Shoko Nakajima defeated Marika Kobashi with the Northern Lights Suplex (6:01).
3. Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao defeated Poison Miura & Poison KANNA (w/ Poison Sawada JULIE) when Akamiya pinned KANNA with the Two Stage Face Kick (8:13).
4. Nonoko & Ai Shimizu defeated Miyu Yamashita & Yuka Sakazaki when Nonoko pinned Shimizu with the Pai Fly Flow (11:49).

Nonoko got the pin on Yuka Sakazaki after Ai Shimizu hit the Triebflügel and Nonoko followed up with the Pai Fly Flow. Nonoko confronted Miyu Yamashita after the match and brought up an interview she gave from the last show. Nonoko remembered Yamashita saying anybody can challenge her for the TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title. Nonoko asked Yamashita if she remembers who won the first Tokyo Princess Cup or who was the wrestler she suffered her first defeat to? It was Nonoko and she wants a title shot! Yamashita accepted the challenge and said she is raring to defend the belt. Even though she lost today the belt won’t be leaving her side. Nonoko replied that she was the first person to beat her and she will also take her first championship too.

Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao have spent the past few weeks under intensive training from Mitsuya Nagai. But their plan to destroy Snake World Joshi was almost ruined before it began when Poison Sawada JULIE poisoned Misao with his snake magic at the start of the show. Sanshiro Takagi came to the rescue and gave Misao the antidote. She recovered in time for Match #3 to begin. Misao tried to talk Poison Miura & Poison KANNA out of their poisoned state but it was too strong. However the hero team capitalised on a mistaken Lariat Miura gave to KANNA and Akamiya got the victory. Miura told Miura & KANNA that teamwork was where they could get real strength, not snake magic. She gave them the antidote and encouraged them to drink it. KANNA Speared Misao instead. She and Miura went back to Sawada who called their defeat a fluke. He demanded a singles match between Poison KANNA and Akamiya at the next show.

Although she was defeated in her first singles match, Marika Kobashi is learning from her experience. She’s thinking about gaining weight and muscles so her Machine Gun Shops can become stronger.

2. 3 Way Match: SAGAT defeated Ryu Gouma and Atsushi Maruyama when SAGAT pinned Maruyama with a Modified STO (6:47).
3. Isami Kodaka & Hi69 defeated Yusuke Kubo & Tsutomu Oosugi when Kodaka pinned Kubo with the Diving Double Knee Drop (12:07).
4. Madoka & FUMA Vs Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
5. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Daichi Kazato with the Drake Driver (14:36).

Takumi Tsukamoto was full of praise for Daicho Kazato after the main event. He called out Isami Kodaka to talk about their upcoming match on 26th February. He said he’s been wrestling with Kodaka for four years and he’s learned a lot during that time. He is grateful for the opportunity BASARA has given him. Kodaka said he is amazed by the young wrestlers like Tsukamoto and Kazato.

BASARA’s two new tag teams went to a 20 minute draw against each other. FUMA was close to winning the match in the final seconds when he gave Ryuichi Sekine the Heavy Metal Anthem but the bell rang before he could go for the pin. Madoka also brought out a ukulele and smashed it over Sekine’s head. Madoka hasn’t completely figured out FUMA’s new obsession with heavy metal music but he promises to find his own metal music to fit in.

After the 3 Way Match Atsushi Maruyama called out Ryu Gouma for being unable to wrestle fair and square and always using weapons. He challenged Gouma to a fight and then attacked him with his Statute Book. Gouma recovered and hit the Jumping Neckbreaker. Maruyama backed off and they both agreed to settle their feud with one more 3 Way Match on 26th February.
