DDT “SAPPORO WRESTLING FESTA 2016 ~DDT CRAB~”, 10/10/2016
Sapporo Susukino Mars Gym
387 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Keisuke Ishii, Akito & Koji Yoshida defeated Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Guanchulo when Akito pinned Hirata with the Hanamasa (9:39).
2. Mars Specialty Soup Curry, Genghis Khan, Miso Soup 3 Way Match: Soma Takao defeated Yasu Urano and Makoto Oishi when Takao pinned both Urano and Oishi with a Double Jackknife Pin (8:06).
3. KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masahiro Takanashi defeated HARASHIMA, Tomoya & Daiki Shimomura when KUDO pinned Shimomura with the Diving Double Knee Drop (11:43).
4. KO-D Openweight Champion! Born In Nemuro Final Match Of Kouki Iwasaki’s 25 Year Trial: Shuji Ishikawa defeated Kouki Iwasaki with the Fire Thunder (10:13).
*Kouki Iwasaki’s trial ends with 0 wins and 1 loss.
5. Hokkaido Big Way! Super Legend Army Vs DNA Army: Yoshihiro Takayama & Dick Togo defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Mizuki Watase when Takayama pinned Watase with the Running Kneelift (13:21).
6. DDT Extreme Title – Dai Ichin Pa-Lien Seiha ~ Soup Curry Death Match: Danshoku Dino (c) defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Danshoku Driver (9:58).
*V2 for Danshoku Dino.
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Polly (c) defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Antonio Honda & Mike Bailey when Sasaki submitted Honda with the Cross Facelock (20:15).
*V1 for DAMNATION.

DAMNATION’s good week continued with a successful KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title defence. They singled out Antonio Honda but he fought back. Honda was ready to do a Diving Fist Drop to Daisuke Sasaki but Tetsuya Endo blocked him. Endo then gave Honda a top rope Frankensteiner and Sasaki locked in the Cross Facelock to make him submit. Sasaki said there is a conspiracy led by Amon Tsurumi to try and take away all of DAMNATION’s championships.

The Dai Ichin Pa-Lien Seiha is a series of matches with bizarre stipulations attached, often intended to make a mess. Today was the sixth time the match was held and it was a Soup Curry Death Match. Danshoku Dino defended the DDT Extreme Title against Sanshiro Takagi but Makoto Oishi and Kazuki Hirata were also involved. They later regretted it. Both were told to wear a diaper and were then given a small bottle to drink. They didn’t find out until afterwards that it was a laxative. The goal for Dino and Takagi was to win the match in 10 minutes before the laxative kicks in and the victims suffer from a loose explosion (not the YOSHI-HASHI kind). The winner would then get the antidote to give to their friend. Oishi tried to distract Takagi by singing “Never Give Up☆I Love You” but stomach cramps made it very difficult for him. Oishi won the match with two seconds to spare and Hirata sprinted to the nearest toilet. Oishi wasn’t so lucky and bowed to the audience in shame before leaving the ring alone. Nobody wanted to give any interviews after the match.

While they haven’t thrown out a challenge yet, Yoshihiro Takayama & Dick Togo are considering chasing after the KO-D Tag Team Titles. They might even invite Sanshiro Takagi over for a 6-Man Tag Title shot too.

Kouki Iwasaki took on a big challenge to prepare for the DNA Grand Prix. He had to fight Shuji Ishikawa! Iwasaki took his chances and jumped Ishikawa at the start of the match. He even took the fight out of the ring for a brawl. However a Lariat knocked him for a loop and he was finished off with the Fire Thunder Driver. Ishikawa noticed Iwasaki’s young ambition and eagerness to win.

DDT “SAPPORO WRESTLING FESTA 2016 ~DDT SEA URCHIN~”, 09/10/2016
Sapporo Susukino Mars Gym
445 Fans – Super No Vacancy

0. King Of Dark Title: Mizuki Watase defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani (c) with a Dropkick (3:43).
*D2 for Nobuhiro Shimatani.
1. Soma Takao defeated Guanchulo with the Gin And Tonic (7:28).
2. Mars Specialty Sea Urchin, Scallops, Salmon And Roe Rice Bowl 3 Way Match: Masahiro Takanashi defeated Kazusada Higuchi and Akito when Takanashi pinned Akito with the Takatonic (9:38).
3. Konosuke Takeshita, Antonio Honda & Mike Bailey defeated Makoto Oishi, Tomoya & Koji Yoshida when Bailey pinned Oishi with the Shooting Star Double Knee Drop (10:53).
4. Wrestling Master Descends To The North Of The Earth!: Dick Togo & Yasu Urano defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Togo submitted Hirata with the Cross Facelock (0:02).
4a. Rematch: Dick Togo & Yasu Urano defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Togo pinned Hirata with the Diving Senton (10:53).
5. KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Yoshihiro Takayama & Kouki Iwasaki when Sakaguchi pinned Iwasaki with the Right Knee Of God (8:45).
6. Sapporo Specialty! Yellow Tag Match Of Happiness: Danshoku Dino & Keisuke Ishii defeated Shuji Ishikawa & Mad Polly when Dino pinned Polly with the Gay-do Clutch (8:49).
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sakai & Tetsuya Endo defeated HARASHIMA & Yuko Miyamoto (c) when Endo pinned HARASHIMA with the Sky Twister Press (16:03).
*Smile Yankee fails in V2. DAMNATION becomes the 57th KO-D Tag Team Champions!

DAMNATION tightens its iron grip on DDT after they regained the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Except this time Tetsuya Endo has the title along with Daisuke Sasaki. They immediately dove out of the ring and onto Smile Yankee when the match began. HARASHIMA fought back with a John Woo Dropkick to Endo. Yuko Miyamoto then followed up with a Sliding Lariat. Endo blocked a Handspring Kneel Kick from Miyamoto, Sasaki then cut him off with a Diving Lariat. Miyamoto attempted the Fire Thunder on Endo but it was countered into a Roll Up. HARASHIMA tried to break it up with the Somato but Endo jumped out of the way and Miyamoto took the blow! HARASHIMA tried the Somato again but Sasaki stopped him. That allowed Endo to give HARASHIMA the Torture Rack Bomb and Sky Twister Press to win the titles! Sasaki told Endo he was the best and all of DAMNATION celebrated with their collection of DDT championships. KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi then came out to challenge them for the tag titles.

Danshoku Dino pulled out the Gay-do Clutch from out of nowhere to pin Mad Polly. That gave Shuji Ishikawa a reminder that Dino can beat him at Korakuen Hall later this month. Dino next turns his attention to tomorrow’s DDT Extreme Title defence against Sanshiro Takagi.

Dick Togo wanted nothing to do with Kazuki Hirata’s dancing and made him instantly tap out to the Cross Facelock when their tag match began. Hirata & Toru Owashi successfully argued for an immediate rematch. Hirata got Togo to wear the HIRATA GO! glasses but all that did was make Togo punch him in time with the music and pin him with the Diving Senton.

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 15” Results

October 8, 2016

hirata-lilico-dance

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 15”, 08/10/2016
Saitama Kasukabe Hall
350 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. King Of Dark Title: Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Cherry defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani (c) & Saki Akai when Matsunaga pinned Shimatani with a Cradle Crush (8:27).
*D1 for Nobuhiro Shimatani.
1. Sound And TV Match Facing A Prelude: Shuji Ishikawa & Mad Polly defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Polly pinned Oishi with the Polly Buster (9:38).
2. Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Soma Takao & Mizuki Watase when Ishii pinned Takao with the High Angle Double Arm DDT (9:01).
3. Yoshihiro Takayama & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Toru Owashi & Yasu Urano when Takayama pinned Urano with the Running Kneelift (10:46).
4. LiLiCo’s New Boyfriend Decision 4 Way Match: Kazuki Hirata (w/ Sanshiro Takagi) defeated Gota Ihashi (w/ Amon Tsurumi), Kikutaro (/w Yukinori Matsui) and Guanchulo (/w Danshoku Dino) (10:26).
4a. Kikutaro eliminated Gota Ihashi with a Cradle (3:15).
4b. Kazuki Hirata eliminated Guanchulo after a Double Thrust Kick with Kikutaro (8:01).
4c. Kazuki Hirata eliminated Kikutaro with the Reverse One Shot Miracle Cradle (10:26).
-. Exhibition Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Keisuke Ishii ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).
5. Konosuke Takeshita, Antonio Honda & Mike Bailey defeated Yukio Sakagichi, Masahiro Takanashi & Rekka when Honda pinned Takanashi with the Diving Fist Drop (13:26).
6. Smile Squash Vs DAMNATION!: Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated HARASHIMA & Akito when Sasaki pinned Akito with the Sasaki Hurricanrana (19:33).

Daisuke Sasaki was able to pin Akito by countering the Hanamasa into a Hurricanrana. Sasaki that the win was no big deal and HARASHIMA’s era ended a long time ago.

It turns out Mike Bailey made it to the show in time after all. He was originally pulled from the card when his flight to Japan was delayed. But he got to Saitama in time and was added back in the last minute. Rekka was thrown in with Shuten-dōji to make it a 6-Man Tag Match. When Antonio Honda grabbed the victory he said Happy Motels were ready to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on 10th October.

LiLiCo came to Kasukabe Hall for DDT’s version of Blind Date except there was no Cilla Black for several obvious reasons. Danshoku Dino, Sanshiro Takagi, Amon Tsurumi and Yukinori Matsui all gathered eligible men to fight for LiLiCo’s companionship and the last one standing would get the opportunity to win her love. Takagi gave Kazuki Hirata a 5 yen coin on a string so he could hypnotise LiLiCo into falling in love with him. Dino convinced Guanchulo to take part so he could get a visa that would let him stay in Japan forever. Matsui brought in Kikutaro so Kikutaro could get LiLiCo’s money. Tsurumi couldn’t find anyone until Gota Ihashi pleaded to be his pick. LiLiCo wasn’t impressed with her options. Hirata won her over when he gave her the HIRATA GO! glasses and they danced on their way to Hirata winning the match. However Hirata wasn’t interested in LiLiCo and it turned out nobody else in the match really cared either. So Dino, Takagi, Tsurumi & Matsui gathered together to find another solution. Matsui suggested they go find Kuishinbo Kamen or Magnitude Kishiwada only to be reminded they already have wives. Their discussion was interrupted when Aja Kong appeared! Kong was pissed at seeing these men toying with LiLiCo’s emotions so she was going to do something about it. Kikutaro told everyone to leave it to him and he grabbed Kong’s breast. Kong and LiLiCo knocked him out. They then gave Hirata a Double Brainbuster. Kong then got angry at Tsurumi for not booking her at any of this year’s Sumo Hall shows. When Kong found out about the big Osaka Edion Arena show in December she told everyone that she and LiLiCo will team up on that show. Tsurumi accepted it without any hesitation.

Keisuke Ishii pinning Soma Takao in Match #2 will probably have ramifications for Soma’s AJPW Jr. Title.

Danshoku Dino worked out that Shuji Ishikawa has a 40% chance of beating him at their KO-D Openweight Title match. Ishikawa brushed those calculations aside and said he can beat Dino under normal conditions. Ishikawa & Mad Polly beating Dino & Makoto Oishi was proof of that. Oishi’s beaten body set a fire in Dino’s heart. Dino said he will fight for Oishi when he faces Ishikawa again tomorrow.

Now that the DDT Dramatic General Election is over, T2Hide had an announcement to make. Sanshiro Takagi was shocked that a large group of 11 wrestlers finished in 5th place. He believed now is the time for the group to disband. Toru Owashi slapped him for saying such a selfish thing. Owashi instead wanted to cut down on members and gave everyone an opportunity to quit. He closed his eyes for five seconds and whoever stayed in the ring when he opened his eyes would continue to be part of the group. Only Takagi and Kazuki Hirata stayed so now T2Hide is back to consisting of just its three original members.

The rivalry between Saki Akai and Cherry is flaring up again. They were both in the King Of Dark Title Match and Cherry wanted to make sure Akai would become the champion. Cherry convinced everyone to make a temporary rule change where whoever took the loss became the champion even if the current champion Nobuhiro Shimatani wasn’t involved. In the match itself Cherry tried hard to make sure Akai would get beaten but instead Shimatani took the fall and remained champion. Cherry told Akai she narrowly escaped and she is looking forward to their match at Korakuen Hall.

Shigehiro Irie is expected to return from the USA soon. One of his first matches back will be at the “DDT FES 2016” on 6th November. It will be Irie & Konosuke Takeshita Vs HARASHIMA & Yukio Sakaguchi!

ohka-onita

After months of preparation the day finally came for Ken Ohka and Ganbare☆Wrestling. Ohka had taken a page out of Atsushi Onita’s book by promising to retire if today’s show had failed to sell out. Thankfully the promotion’s first show in Korakuen Hall turned out to be a success with over a 1,000 fans in attendance. Ohka took big risks in the ring as well as out of it. The main event was a No Rope Barbed Wire Street Fight Tornado 8-Man Tag Team Death Match with Ohka’s team versus Onita’s team. Those two fought each other while chaos reigned around them. Shota was put through a table by an Onita Piledriver. Yumehito Imanari & Mitomi Masayuki gave Onita a Double Brainbuster onto a barbed wire board. Imanari then brought in a barbed wire bat to use on Onita’s team. Ohka took his punishment and got the crowd to rally behind him. An opening came when Ohka ducked under Onita’s red mist. Osamu Namiguchi was blinded instead! Ohka gave Namiguchi the Fire Thunder Bomb but Hideki Hosaka stopped the pin. Ohka then hit the Flame Spear and this time there was nobody there to stop him.

ohka-mist-namiguchi

After the match Namiguchi demanded Onita to face him but Onita told him it’s enough. Onita invited Ohka to come over to the next FMW show on 24th November and congratulated him on a successful show. Namiguchi said he wasn’t convinced and he will crush Ganpuro but Onita ignored him and began spraying water everywhere. When that was over Ohka had some important announcements to make. He is getting married and he will also become a father in December!

fujita-marriage

Saki Maemura/Fujita had her first match back from retirement and one of her opponents was her ex-husband Minoru Fujita. Madoka and Bambi were also involved playing the role of their step-children. The crowd booed whenever Minoru attacked Saki. At one point somebody in the crowd yelled “Mom!” to motivate Saki. It looked to be all over when Minoru gave her the Tombstone Piledriver. But Bambi turned on Minoru when she stopped the pin with a Shining Wizard! Madoka then gave Minoru the Ranhyei and Saki hit a low altitude Frankensteiner for the three count. After the match Saki told Minoru there is nothing she regrets from their relationship. She’s thinks wrestling is very good so Minoru should continue doing it until he’s dead. Minoru understood. A year ago he came into Ganpuro spitting venom but over time he learned to work hard for his wrestling. He doesn’t know what lies ahead but he’ll make sure to do something his and Saki’s children will be proud of.

tominaga-asahi

Shinichiro Tominaga won Shiori Asahi’s respect with their match together. They were only in K-DOJO together for a brief amount of time before Tominaga quit and moved over to Union Pro. Asahi told him that today might not be the end of their story. If Tominaga is motivated to come back to K-DOJO some day then Asahi will be there waiting for him.

katsumura-ito

With all of the chaos happening elsewhere on the show it was nice to have something more straightforward. That’s where Shuichiro Katsumura and Takafumi Ito came in. Katsumura kept trying to lock in the Cross Armbreaker but Ito did what he could to break away. Finally Katsumura applied the move with nowhere for Ito to go. Ito never tapped out but the referee had to stop the match for his safety. Katsumura was declared the winner although Ito was dissatisfied with the result.

ishii-shootingstar

Keisuke Ishii decided to pull out something special for his first match against Yukihiro Abe in years. Ishii won the match with a Shooting Star Press! It was crooked but it did the job. Ishii said the show’s theme was surprise so that was his surprise.

ganpuro-gatoh

The opener was a showcase for Ganpuro’s women as Aoi Ishibashi & Ai Shimizu took on Emi Sakura & “Kotori” from Gatoh Move. Shimizu almost won with a Fisherman Suplex on “Kotori” but she kicked out of the pin. “Kotori” held Shimizu back while Sakura got the three count on Ishibashi with La Magistral Cradle.

shibata-royale

A dark match Battle Royal was held featuring the colourful cast of misfits and oddities that have wrestled in Ganpuro during its existence. Fumihito Kihara and Naoshi Sano focused on fighting each other from the moment the bell rang. Both of them continued fighting each other. Choun-Shiryu tried to Headbutt Mr. No but only hurt himself doing so. American Balloon used his massive man boobs to block Mr. No’s Headbutt much to everyone’s disgust. As the eliminations piled up Dr. Kiriko grabbed Balloon and force fed him some mystery medicine to make him faint. Mars Spector cleared the ring until it was down to just him and Shibata. A missed kick from Spector sent him over the top rope and Shibata knocked him off to be the last man standing. Shibata’s prize for winning is one wish to be granted by Ken Ohka within reason.
