Saki Akai will be creating costumes for everyone involved in her match. The designs will be based on the Showa era of fashion for her team and the Heisei era of fashion for her opponents.

Kazusada Higuchi was missing from this past weekend’s shows because of an infection. He has been given permission from his doctor to take part in tomorrow’s Shuten-dōji farewell show.

Poison Sawada JULIE and one of his creations Hoshihebi have been added to the tag gauntlet. JULIE warns everyone that he will burn down Shinjuku FACE with glowing lotus flames!

BASARA “BASARA 94 ~BANQUET~”, 23/04/2019
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

5. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs Best Stretchman V3

For years now Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga have been rivals in the court. They get along when they are away from the criminal justice system so let’s see how they work as a tag team.

Jun Masaoka doesn’t want to get along with anybody but he is pretty much a part of the current BASARA rookie generation. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino have been teaming together anyway. A third partner for them wouldn’t hurt.

DDT “SOUKEN HOLDINGS PRESENTS MAX BUMP 2019”, 28/04/2019
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Pokotan (w/ Danshoku Dieno)
2. Keisuke Okuda Farewell Match: Keisuke Okuda, Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Kota Umeda, Mizuki Watase & Yuki Iino
3. Saki Akai & Asuka Vs Mad Paulie & Nobuhiro Shimatani
4. Legendary Wrestler Yoshiaki Yatsu First Match In DDT: Yoshiaki Yatsu, Sanshiro Takagi & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Akito, Kazusada Higuchi & Hiroshi Yamato
5. DDT Extreme Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Antonio Honda
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles – 4 Way Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) & Soma Takao Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata (?) Vs MAO & Mike Bailey Vs Ricky Starks & Mike Rollins
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Makoto Oishi

For his first KO-D Openweight Title defence, Tetsuya Endo has chosen Makoto Oishi to be his opponent because he is guaranteed to beat him. That was proven over the weekend when Endo submitted Oishi in the main event of Sunday’s show. Oishi thinks he has a chance because he could outsmart Endo with his wrestling knowledge. Endo thinks he has everything in his arsenal to beat Oishi anyway no matter how Oishi uses his head when they wrestle.

There is a lot of craziness surrounding the KO-D Tag Team Titles match. Konosuke Takeshita challenged the new champions DAMNATION because he wants to get revenge for losing the KO-D Title to Daisuke Sasaki in New York. The Moonlight Express want to get their rematch because they are the former champions. Newcomers Ricky Starks & Mike Rollins saw an opportunity to get involved in the title picture and also want to be in the match. So we are getting a 4 Way Match for the belts. Now there is a new bump in the road for ALL OUT because it was announced today that Shunma Katsumata is out of action for an undetermined amount of time with a left ankle injury.

The mascot Pokotan wrestles in a DDT ring for the first time since its debut at “JUDGEMENT 2019”.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HEISEI 31 YEARS “AH” IT’S BUSY!”, 29/04/2019

5. Sakisama & Misao Vs Nodoka Tenma & YUMI
6. Miyu Yamashita, Reika Saiki & Marika Kobashi Vs Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe

With Marika Kobashi taking a break from wrestling soon to focus on her education, this may be the last time the Muscle JK Strikers will team together for a while.

Thunder Rosa makes her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut here.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND 2019 ~OPPORTUNITY IS THERE~”, 03/05/2019
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Reika Saiki & Marika Kobashi Vs Riho & Raku
2. Sakisama & Misao Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
3. Special Single Match: Aja Kong Vs Maki Itoh
4. TOKYO Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Natsumi Maki & Hikari Noa
5. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

With 10 defences under her belt and two championships over her shoulders, Miyu Yamashita has been looking mighty unbeatable lately. Yuka Sakazaki has been the same and both of them have more overseas bookings they’re looking forward too. Sadly for Shoko Nakajima when it comes to the most established power trio of Tokyo Joshi she’s been feeling left out. Well no more! Nakajima has challenged Yamashita for the TOKYO Princess Title at Korakuen Hall. Will Anguirus topple Godzilla?

Misao is constantly telling everyone that Hyper Misao is dead and never coming back. Rika Tatsumi doesn’t believe her and is willing to fight her to prove the superhero is still alive in there somewhere. Miu Watanabe has been constantly fighting and losing to NEO Biishiki-gun ever since Misao joined the unit. With the Up Up Girls now down one member and her other partners currently taking separate paths, she gets another chance to stand up to Sakisama.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAMS VOL. 6 ~YUKINORI MATSUI REFEREE 25TH ANNIVERSARY MEMORIAL CONCERT RUT~”, 26/05/2019

3. Special Tag Match ~Dramatic Dream~: Konosuke Takeshita & HARASHIMA Vs Shigehiro Irie & Kazusada Higuchi

Kikutaro’s original opponent Kuishinbo Kamen cannot compete because of an injury so the match has been cancelled. Antonio Honda has asked to be Kikutaro’s new opponent because it is what he wants more than anything else in his life.

April 14, 2019

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “KEISUKE ISHII PRODUCE ENTERTAINMENT – MOMOIRO KNEEL KICK 2019”, 14/04/2019
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

3. LariPro Came Back: Keisuke Ishii, Mitsuo Momota & Yuna Manase defeated Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Shota when Momota pinned Imanari with a School Boy (9:22).
4. Fresh Ariyama Cup Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Minoru Fujita ended in a Time Limit Draw (30:00).
5. Special Bonus Track – 1 Vs 13 Handicap Elimination Special Rule Match: Keisuke Ishii, Kouki Iwasaki, Shuichiro Katsumura, Minoru Fujita, Mitsuo Momota, Yuna Manase, Yumehito Imanari, Shota, Cherry, HARUKAZE, Moeka Haruhi, Gota Ihashi & Shuhei Washida defeated Ken Ohka (7:47).

5c. Ken Ohka eliminated Shuichiro Katsumata by Ring Out.
5d. Ken Ohka eliminated Minoru Fujita by Ring Out.

5k. Ken Ohka eliminated Shota with the Fire Spear.
5l. Ken Ohka eliminated Keisuke Ishii by Ring Out.
5m. HARUKAZE eliminated Ken Ohka by Ring Out.

The main event lasted all thirty minutes and ended without a winner. Still, Keisuke Ishii was happy with the result and said it was great to make friends with the other wrestlers today. Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki thought they had the match won when they isolated Minoru Fujita. They hit him with the Kneel Kick, a Dragon Suplex, a Tiger Suplex and then a Moonsault but Fujita kicked out! Shuichiro Katsumura then trapped Iwasaki in the Cross Armbreaker when the bell rang to end the match in a draw. Fujita didn’t want himself or Katsumata to raise their hands along with Ishii & Iwasaki because he saw it as an admittance of defeat. Katsumura however convinced Fujita to join in.

The show ended with a 13 Vs 1 Handicap Match between Ken Ohka against everybody else on the card. Ohka was able to eliminated mostly everyone by throwing them out of the ring but HARUKAZE hid until he was the last one left and eliminated him from behind. She won the prize pack of melons that was originally meant to be given to the winners of the main event tag match. Ohka was given a lethally spicy chili pepper as a booby prize.

“Sunrise”, “GRAND SWORD”, “J”, “HOLD OUT” and “Subconsciousness” were the songs played during the Lariat Pro Wrestling match. The last one isn’t associated with Lariats but that didn’t stop Yuna Manase from doing the pose and screaming “Yeaoh!”

Ohka wanted to do the Japanese Ocean Cyclone Suplex in the joshi match but his own tag partner Moeka Haruhi stopped him because “it is Miss Toyota’s move.” Haruhi then kicked Ohka below the belt and HARUKAZE pinned him with a School Boy. Haruhi, HARUKAZE and Cherry kicked Ohka out of the ring afterwards but he had to get back in because the Lariat match was next.


DDT “DRAMATIC TENJINBASHI! 2019” Results

April 14, 2019

DDT “DRAMATIC TENJINBASHI! 2019”, 14/04/2019
Osaka City Ozo Community Center
219 Fans

1. Lucha Libre Rules: Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Maku Donaruto defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Mizuki Watase & Yuni when Hirata pinned Watase with the GO! GO! Splash (8:08).
2. 3 Way Tag Match: MAO & Asuka defeated Soma Takao & Nobuhiro Shimatani and Antonio Honda & Ricky Starks when MAO pinned Shimatani after a German Suplex & Jackknife Pin Combo (8:56).
3. Mike Bailey defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Ultima Weapon (11:46).
4. Naomi Yoshimura defeated Mike Rollins with the Shonenba (9:57).
5. Keisuke Okuda Marunage Match: Kota Umeda & Keisuke Okuda defeated Magnitude Kishiawada & Yuki Iino when Okuda pinned Iino with a Buzzsaw Kick (11:20).
6. DISASTER BOX Vs Shuten-dōji!: Yukio Sakaguchi & Masahiro Takanashi defeated HARASHIMA & Yuki Iino when Sakaguchi pinned Iino with the God’s Right Knee (13:32).
7. I Love It! Osaka Specialty Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Akito & Makoto Oishi when Endo submitted Oishi with the Modified Yurikamome Hold (17:56).

Tetsuya Endo looks like he is getting what he wants from Makoto Oishi. That is an easy opponent he can beat all the time. Endo made Oishi submit to the Yurikamome Hold then taunted him for “wrestling with his head”. Endo says pro wrestling is the opposite, it is using everything except your head! He reminded everyone that there are two types of people in the world, losers and the KO-D Openweight Champion Tetsuya Endo!

Mad Paulie continues to require reading hentai novels in order to keep calm during matches.

Keisuke Okuda thanked Magnitude Kishiwada for taking part in his Marunage match. Since Okuda will be a freelancer starting in May, he would like to have another match with Kishiwada anywhere in Osaka.

The most horrible alliance in DDT has been created. Kazuki Hirata & Maku Donaruto are now a tag team! They along with Toru Owashi were able to beat Sanshiro Takagi, Mizuki Watase & Yuni even when Yuni demanded the match to be held under Lucha Libre rules. Donaruto hit the McShake Bomb on Watase then Hirata hit the newly named GO! GO! Splash for the three count. After the match Hirata wanted to know something about Donaruto. Back when Hirata was living in Kobe, he shared a one room apartment with a weird person for 6 months. Was that person Donaruto before he transformed into what he is now? Hirata is happy to be reunited with that guy buy he hates being vulgar. Donaruto told Hirata that they shared a dream together in that dirty room. They can make that dream come true by winning the KO-D Tag Team Titles! Also Donaruto bought 100 tickets for the DDT “WRESTLE MATSUYAMANIA” show in June that he can sell to people if they team together. He’s already sold 15 of them. Takagi promised the two will get their tag title match on 2nd June if they are able to sell the remaining tickets before then.

It was announced that the Kuishinbo Kamen Vs Kikutaro match scheduled for Yukinori Matsui’s 25th Anniversary show in May has been cancelled because Kamen is injured. Antonio Honda offered to take Kamen’s place and be Kikutaro’s new opponent. For him that match is more valuable than money or health.

1. Special Pocha Libre ~First Impact By Pretty Pochadoras~: Beauty Suzuki defeated Da Pump Matsumoto with a School Boy (7:52).
2. Second Pocha Libre Match ~ Pocchari-gun Vs Mad Slender-gun Innocence RIZAP War: Miss Mongolia & Busses Mongolia defeated Moeka Haruhi & HARUKAZE whem Miss pinned HARUKAZE with the Senton (11:37).
3. Beyond The Chubby ~ The Value Of Mixed Public-Private Road: Yumehito Imanari defeated Yuna Manase with the Chubby Knee Kick (15:35).

In a show to celebrate big women, Yumehito Imanari booked a match between himself and Yuna Manase in the main event. At the start of the show Manase returned to her previous idol name Yuna Suzuki for a cheerleader dance. When she finished the dance she shook Imanari’s hand then gave him a Stunner. She then took off the costume and told Imanari she was going to take their match seriously.

Imanari described his match with Manase as the best feeling. When Manase lost she realised that she will never be the ace for companies like Tokyo Joshi Pro, Stardom, Actwres girl’Z or even this Pocchari Joshi offshoot Imanari has created. She is comfortable with her body size but she wanted to win so badly today. Imanari cheered Manase up by telling her how loved she is by everyone in the audience! Everyone in the show got together and sang “Let It Snow” while confetti shot everywhere. When it was over Imanari said everyone loves Manase because she is her own personality and that is what makes her an ace.

Nonoko was part of the show performing with comedy idol Metropoli-chan V. She also announced Manase’s ring entrance.

3. Producer Vs Producer! A Blow to The Soul!: Keisuke Ishii defeated Yumehito Imanari with the Double Arm Neck Lock (13:17).
4. Ganbare☆Wrestling Vs HEAT-UP All Out 4 Vs 4 Elimination Match: TAMURA, Hiroshi Watanabe, Daisuke Kanehira & Keito Murota defeated Ken Ohka, Shota, Kouki Iwasaki & Shuhei Washida (19:51).

4e. Kouki Iwasaki eliminated TAMURA by Ring Out (17:37).
4f. Daisuke Kanehira eliminated Kouki Iwasaki by Ring Out (19:51).

Today HEAT-UP was victorious over Ganbare☆Wrestling! The main event was an 8-Man Elimination Tag Match between the two promotions. Ganpro suffered a major blow early on when Ken Ohka was pushed off the top rope by TAMURA, eliminating him three minutes in. Hirohsi Watanabe pinned Shota with a Leg Roll Clutch but Shota was able to clasp onto Watanabe’s arms and pin his shoulders down in the process, resulting in a double pinfall. Kouki Iwasaki got rid of Keito Murota with a Crab Hold and Daisuke Kanehira pinned Shuhei Washida with a Knee Strike minutes later. It was all up to Iwasaki but even thought he got to eliminate TAMURA, Kanehira sent him packing to win the match for HEAT-UP.

As the promotion’s champion, Kanehira was going to announce the next show to take place in Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR but Ohka interrupted him. TAMURA tried to calm Ohka down by telling him it’s time for the next generation led by Kanehira and Iwasaki to take over. TAMURA suggested that he and Ohka should retire right away but Ohka stopped him. HEAT-UP were given the chance to give the show closing speech but it devolved into another brawl between the two sides. Kanehira got the last words in and said BASEMENT MON☆STAR is heating up!

Since Keisuke Ishii and Yumehito Imanari are both hosting their own shows later today they faced off here. Ishii won with the Tiger Suplex and then the Double Arm Neck Lock.

Ohka announced early in the show that Moeka Haruhi was unable to appear today. Haruhi was standing beside him when he said this. She was “replaced” by the debuting “Reiwa”-ko. Haruhi was made to wrestle in different novelty masks that were bought from Don Quijote as the match went on.

Choun-Shiryu was given permission to use his weapons during his match with Shuichiro Katsumura. In return Katsumura put on heavy MMA gloves and they absorbed the impact from Shiryu’s Double Stomp. Katsumura gave him a Fisherman Buster then made him submit to the Ninja Choke.

DDT “DRAMATIC STARRY STREET CORNER”, 13/04/2019
Tottori Yonago Industrial Gymnasium Sub Arena
148 Fans

1. Ricky Starks & Mike Rollins defeated Asuka & Mizuki Watase when Rollins pinned Watase with the Psycho Punch Baby (8:45).
2. Sanshiro Tagaki & Keisuke Okuda defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Takagi pinned Hirata with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (9:18).
3. Antonio Honda defeated Yuki Iino with the Manjigatame (12:10).
4. Yukio Sakaguchi & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Kota Umeda when Takanashi pinned Matsunaga after the God’s Right Knee from Sakaguchi (10:35).
5. Konosuke Takeshita Marunage Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Gaina Tiger & G defeated Yuki Ueno, Takuya Fujiwara & COW Saeki when Tiger pinned Fujiwara with the Moonsault (12:55).
6. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Daisuke Sasaki & Mad Paulie defeated Akito & Shunma Katsumata when Sasaki submitted Katsumata with the Cross Facelock (11:10).
7. Yonago Specialties Come! Special! 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Makoto Oishi & Lowther defeated Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo & Nobuhiro Shimatani when HARASHIMA pinned Shimatani with the Somato (15:19).

Tetsuya Endo and Makoto Oishi got into a fight after the main event and had to be pulled apart. Daisuke Sasaki got some shots in with the DAMNATION sign.

Mad Paulie was given a hentai book to read on the ring apron so he could be kept under control while he is in heat.

The first Marunage match went through without a hitch. Well except for Yuki Ueno’s team ambushing Konosuke Takeshita at the start of the show. Takeshita and his team got their revenge by winning the match later. Takeshita told the local wrestlers to give him a call whenever bad guys invade Tottori and he will rush to help them anytime.

Antonio Honda was in luck today. Yuki Iino had him beaten with the Haka Elbow but Yukinori Matsui was knocked down during the pin. Honda recovered, gave Iino a Dragon Screw, attack his arm and made him submit to the Octopus Hold. Honda admitted he was tired and beaten but interesting things happened when Matsui was not looking. By beating Iino, Honda says he has absorbed the power of the Haka and therefore the power of New Zealand. This will be an advantage for his DDT Extreme Title match with HARASHIMA.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING
250 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Rika Tatsumi & Haruna Neko defeated Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Tatsumi submitted Kiryu with the Dragon Sleeper (8:57).
2. Reika Saiki defeated YUMI with the Tower Bridge (7:20).
3. Natsumi Maki & Hikari Noa defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa when Maki pinned Shirakawa with the Backlash (7:41).

5. Sakisama & Misao defeated Miu Watanabe & Raku when Misao pinned Watanabe with the Vanitas (14:09).
6. Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima & Marika Kobashi defeated Maki Itoh, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino when Nakajima pinned Aino with a Frankensteiner (14:46).

A High Kick from Miyu Yamashita to Yuki Aino gave Shoko Nakajima the opening to pin Aino with a Frankensteiner. She congratulated Yamashita on becoming a double champion but asked when she would next defend the TOKYO Princess Title because she wants a shot! Yamashita silently agreed to it and left Nakajima in the ring. Nakajima said Yamashita is like Godzilla and Yuka Sakazaki is like Mothra. This makes Nakajima feel like Anguirus (the kaiju that came after Godzilla and is kind of forgotten about). On 3rd May at Korakuen Hall, Nakajima will face Yamashita and this time Anguirus will win!

Misao is now using a Reverse Tiger Driver which she has named Vanitas. She ran down the Up Up Girls on the microphone, telling them their hard work, sweat, tears and friendship are all meaningless. Rika Tatsumi entered the ring and stood up to Misao. She tried to convince Misao that she is Hyper Misao, the hero that protects love and peace in Tokyo Joshi Pro! Misao denied that and said she executed the weak the same way one would remove weeds from a garden. Tatsumi told Miu Watanabe she will team with her to battle NEO Biishiki-gun on 3rd May.

Marika Kobashi will be taking another break from pro wrestling after 25th May to focus on her education. Her goal is to go to university so she is studying a lot to pass her exams.

6. HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yuki Ueno defeated Antonio Honda, Kazusada Higuchi & Kota Umeda when HARASHIMA pinned Honda with a Cradle (14:11).
7. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata when Endo pinned Katsumata with the Shooting Star Press (17:03).

DDT is back to work after their American vacation and there is a lot to get through. After the main event Konosuke Takeshita expressed his desire to win back the KO-D Openweight Title. However he has an even bigger desire to avenge his defeat to Daisuke Sasaki so he challenged him to a KO-D Tag Team Titles match instead! Takeshita picked Shunma Katsumata to be his partner, partly because Akito is out of action and Yuki Iino is more suited for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. After his challenge was made, The Moonlight Express came out demanding their title rematch against DAMNATION. If that wasn’t enough the team of Ricky Starks & Mike Rollins also came out wanting a title shot. Sasaki refused to hand out a title match to anybody until Tetsuya Endo talked to him. Endo said there are only two kinds of people in the world, those who take challenges and those who refuse them. Which one is Sasaki? That convinced Sasaki to make a 4 Way Tag match for the Tag Titles on 28th April!

When that was over with, Endo announced his first challenger for the KO-D Title on 28th April. It’s… Makoto Oishi? Even Oishi was surprised to hear this but he asked the fans to support him in Korakuen Hall. Oishi then became more confident, telling Endo he will be a weak champion if he can’t win on the 28th. Oishi will show Endo how he uses his head to win matches. Endo closed out the show telling the audience he was reborn in New York and grew up in New York. There are two kinds of people in this world, losers and the winner, Tetsuya Endo!

HARASHIMA had intentions to tell Antonio Honda their DDT Extreme Title stipulation today but he hasn’t been able to think of anything. Honda asked if he could be given time to come up with the match idea instead. HARASHIMA agreed and they shook hands as a promise to come up with the best rules to create the best match.

One High Kick after another resulted in a double knockout between Yukio Sakaguchi and Keisuke Okuda. Sakaguchi told Okuda he enjoyed that match and to remember they will be together again for a tag match in Yokohama next week.

Although Asuka and Saki Akai were opponents today, they were on the same page after the match. Asuka said she is starving to win a championship again and if Akai can help her, she’ll be happy to team up. Akai now needs one more person to join her team so she can challenge for the 6-Man Tag Titles.

Springtime means that Mad Paulie’s face is turning red again because he is back in heat.

Kazuki Hirata and Hiroshi Yamato complained that the other’s entrance is too long.

Antonio Honda talked about his experience in New York at the start of the show. He doesn’t understand why everyone booed his Hulk Hogan impersonation at the DDT show but when the real Hogan appeared at WrestleMania he was greatly cheered.

The 2019 King Of DDT tournament will begin on 29th April. So far 14 names have been revealed. They are Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA, Daisuke Sasaki, Yukio Sakaguchi, Akito, Soma Takao, Masahiro Takanashi, Kazusada Higuchi, MAO, Mike Bailey, Kota Umeda, Naomi Yoshimura, Yuki Ueno and Kazuki Hirata. A Battle Royal for the 1st Round losers will take place on 6th May and the winner will qualify for the 2nd Round happening that same day. The tournament winner will receive a KO-D Title shot at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2019” in July along with a million yen cash prize.
