1. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Akito & Yuki Iino defeated Tetsuya Endo & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Akito pinned Shimatani with the Hanamasa (8:40).

3. Keisuke Okuda defeated Yuki Ueno by Knockout with a Left High Kick (9:45).
4. Mike Bailey & MAO defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Kouki Iwasaki when Bailey pinned Iwasaki after the Michinoku Tornado Driver (8:09).
5. Akkun Makorin Dangerous Affair Once A Year 2018: KUDO defeated Makoto Oishi with the Backspin Kick (10:42).
6. RENEGADES Vs DAMNATION!: Daisuke Sasaki, Soma Takao & Mad Paulie defeated Shigehiro Irie, Mizuki Watase & Jason Kincaid when Sasaki submitted Kincaid with the Cross Facelock (15:35).
7. King Of DDT 2018 Best 8 Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Keisuke Ishii when Hirata pinned Sakaguchi with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (17:23).

The finish to the main event had Yukio Sakaguchi missing the God’s Right Knee on Kazuki Hirata. HARASHIMA hit Sakaguchi into the turnbuckles with the Somato then Hirata got the win with the Miracle One Shot Cradle. HARASHIMA was full of praise for Hirata’s accomplishment today. HARASHIMA added that he gave him an assist but still, pinning Sakaguchi is the kind of momentum Hirata needs for the King Of DDT finale next weekend. Hirata ended the show with his “TOKYO GO!” dance because it is rare for him to win a main event match in Osaka. Sakaguchi was so surprised by the result he thought he was dreaming.

KUDO and Makoto Oishi had their annual singles match together with KUDO coming out as the victor. KUDO called the match fun but Oishi is annoyed that he only has one win in the series so far. He doesn’t know when or where their match in 2019 will take place but he will train like mad to prepare for it. KUDO raised a toast to celebrate Oishi’s upcoming marriage.

Antonio Honda complained about being in a 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match. He was told that Yuni was allowed to take part because his school is currently on its summer vacation. Honda said that children are the treasure of Japan but he and Masahiro Takanashi were still going to have a numbers disadvantage. Honda had an idea to even the numbers. He wanted Hisaya Imabayashi to join his team! Imabayashi tried to decline but he was stripped of his suit, revealing he was wearing wrestling trunks underneath. Imabayashi was convinced to take part and the match became 3 Vs 3. He took Yuni lightly until Yuni tripped him with a kick and put him in an Armbar. Imabayashi somehow had better luck fighting against Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi but was pinned by a School Boy from Yuni.

Keisuke Okuda interrupted the announcement of the next Osaka show to demand entry into this year’s Dramatic General Election! With DNA now gone, Okuda wants to move on and leave his mark in DDT. Earlier in the show Okuda defeated Yuki Ueno by High Kicking him to death.

271 Fans – Super No Vacancy

7. King Of DDT 2018 Best 8 Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated Mike Bailey & MAO when Endo pinned MAO with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (18:10).

With the King Of DDT Quarter Finals around the corner, the remaining wrestlers are making their presence felt. Daisuke Sasaki brought up how Tetsuya Endo won last year’s tournament and will do the same this year. Sasaki even talked down his own chances of winning to put over Endo. DAMNATION’s newest member Nobuhiro Shimatani then got in the ring and enthusiastically took over the end of show speech. He called himself the knob that makes the world spin around DAMNATION and he joined in the group pose by posing in front of the other members. Sasaki gave him a Low Blow to get him out of the way.

Shigehiro Irie gave a violent message to the absent Danshoku Dieno after Match #6. Irie took a beaten Kouki Iwasaki and gave him a Pentagon Jr. style Inverted Armbreaker to injure Iwasaki’s shoulder. Irie then yelled that he will do this to Dieno the next time he’s in the ring with him!

After the match between Antonio Honda and Konaka = Pale One, Honda asked the fans if they knew the connection between him and Konaka. He described it like taking a step in one direction with one leg and then a step in the other direction with the other leg. In between that is the penis! Honda realised the detail in his speech was getting lewd so he ended it by telling everyone that they would not exist today without a penis. He then made everyone chant “1, 2, 3, Penis!”

The Mizuki in Match #4 is not the Mizuki from Tokyo Joshi Pro but a masked joshi from the local Toyota Pro Wrestling league making her DDT debut. I wasn’t able to find much information about her other than this weekend was the 4th anniversary of her debut.
