Day 2 of the D-Ou Grand Prix ended with the two outside names leading both groups. Masato Tanaka topped B Block by beating Daisuke Sasaki in the main event. The two both used chairs early in the match but the dirty wrestling went away. Sasaki countered the Sliding D into a Crucifix Pin then turned it into the Cross Facelock. Tanaka cradled Sasaki for a nearfall but it also allowed him to escape the submission. Tanaka wore down Sasaki with Elbow Stikes until he put him away with the Sliding D. Tanaka said he doesn’t talk much on the microphone in ZERO1 these days but he gets to do it in DDT today. Maybe the DDT fans are disappointed with today’s result but Tanaka still wants to give everyone an exciting tournament and go all the way to the final.

Keisuke Ishii made up for yesterday’s disappointing result in a big way by beating Konosuke Takeshita! The match was decided with a duel between Lariats and Kneel Kicks. The finish saw Takeshita hit the Lariat only for Ishii to pop back up and hit the Kneel Kick for the pin. This was the first time Ishii beat Takeshita since the latter was a rookie. However Ishii understands that the win on its own means little. He is happy that the pillar of Ganbare☆Wrestling beat the ace of DDT but the win means nothing if he doesn’t do well for the rest of the Grand Prix. Ishii now has his sights set on Chihiro Hashimoto!

After today there are now two time limit draws in D-Ou history and Tetsuya Endo has been part of both of them. Endo and Chris Brookes spent a lot of time trying to give each other wet willies. It went as far as Brookes sticking his finger in Yukinori Matsui’s mouth to wet willy his way out of Endo’s Yurikamome Hold. The moves got bigger as the minutes counted down. Endo hit Tetsuya In The Sky and a Canadian Destroyer. Brookes hit an Avalanche Double Arm Suplex and a Diving Senton. A double countout almost happened in the final minutes but both men got back in at 19. Brookes caught Endo in an Ankle Hold but the bell rang when 30 minutes passed. Endo believes his D-Ou is already over. His goal was to win every match so he treats a draw the same as a loss. Also he thinks his left foot is already weakened to the point of uselessness. Brookes however is feeling more proud over the result. It’s not embarrassing to fight Endo to a 30 minutes draw. He is always going to be fighting at 100%. He is also motivated by some disparaging comments Sasaki made about him before the Grand Prix.

Hashimoto leads the A Block on her own after a win over Yuki Ueno. The Albright German Suplex was countered into a Rolling Cradle the first time but Hashimoto kicked out and hit the move properly the second time. With two wins in two matches Hashimoto wants to go on undefeated, win the Grand Prix and become the face of DDT! Ueno describes Hashimoto’s strength as identical to Yuki Iino’s. He accepts defeat today but thinks he will become better tomorrow.

Soma Takao used the referee as a shield against Bull James then spat Red Mist to blind his opponent. The distraction worked and Takao pinned James with a Crucifix Pin. Takao wants to know why a super heavyweight is in the tournament. James swore revenge on DAMNATION and he will get it when he faces Sasaki.

Yukio Sakaguchi and Naomi Yoshimura both wasted no time in trying to get their first win. Yoshimura attacked Sakaguchi before the bell. But Sakaguchi kicked his way into recovery and won with a Sleeper Hold and the God’s Right Knee. Even though it was short, Sakaguchi thanked Yoshimura for giving him a good fight. The pre-match attack made Sakaguchi remember what he has been missing lately.

In one of the non-tournament matches, Iino turned the HIRATA GO! dance into a group Haka involving everyone in the match.

Every entrant in the Battle Royal took the time to tell Makoto Oishi how much it would mean to them to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. In the end Antonio Honda won the Battle Royal, last eliminating Oishi to become the champion. Oishi shook his hand afterwards but it was a trap to School Boy him and take his title back.

Yokohama Radiant Hall
249 Fans – No Vacancy

1. 3 Way Match: Nodoka Tenma defeated Yuki Kamifuku and Haruna Neko when Tenma pinned Neko with a Back Flip (5:28).
2. Shoko Nakajima defeated Mina Shirakawawith with a Modified Manjigatame (9:08).
3. Sakisama defeated Raku with the YSL (7:33).
4. Yuki Aino defeated Miu Watanabe with the Venus DDT (8:50).
5. Maki Itoh & Pom Harajuku defeated Hikari Noa & Mahiro Kiryu when Itoh submitted Kiryu with the Itoh Special (11:30).
6. Falls Count Anywhere Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Misao with the Missile Hip (14:59).
7. Miyu Yamashita, Yuna Manase & Mirai Maiumi defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Suzume when Yamashita pinned Suzume with the Attitude Adjustment (11:32).

Everybody shook hands before the main event. Well, except for Yuka Sakazaki. She stuck her tongue out at Miyu Yamashita. But it was Yamashita who got the last laugh. She pinned Suzume then posed with her fist pointing towards Sakazaki. There isn’t bad blood between them though. Yamashita even bought Sakazaki a box of candy as a gift. Sakazaki didn’t accept them but Mizuki did after she left the ring.

The feud between Rika Tatsumi and Misao all came down to this match. In the days before the show took place it was announced the match would be Falls Count Anywhere. Tatsumi came out carrying a Hyper Misao mask carrying a bag of chocolates. She wanted Misao to relive her match with Jun Kasai. The two fought around ringside and Tatsumi brought out the HiPami Cycle Misao used in her match with Kasai. Misao jumped out of the way and Tatsumi crashed the Cycle into the ring post. Back in the ring Misao gathered together a pile of chairs and did the Dies Irae onto them. But Tatsumi kicked out at two. Misao used the ropes for leverage on a School Boy but Tatsumi kicked out again. Misao went for the Kingslayer but Tatsumi countered it with the Dragon Twist Of Fate onto the chairs. She then grabbed the Hyper Misao mask and hit the Missile Hip for a definitive victory.

Tatsumi held her fist out towards Misao after the match. Misao reached out and fist bumped her in response. Tatsumi wanted Hyper Misao to return but she accepts that from this point on it is up to Misao to decide if she wants to come back or not. No matter what she chooses, Tatsumi will support her decision. When she handed the mask to Misao, Sakisama entered the ring and asked Misao what she was doing holding a dirty mask. Misao said she remembers what it is she wants to protect. Sakisama’s beauty is real but so too was the strength she felt during today’s match. She apologised to Sakisama for being selfish but she now wants to walk her own path. Sakisama isn’t going to let her leave NEO Biishiki-gun that easily though. She’ll teach her a lesson the next time they’re in the ring together. When Sakisama left the ring, Tatsumi gave Misao a Fighting Spirit slap across the face. They then fist bumped again.

Tatsumi’s current tag partner Miu Watanabe lost to Yuki Aino. According to Aino, Watanabe is the member of Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) that she wants to wrestle the most because Watanabe won the Princess Tag Titles before she could. Aino challenged Watanabe for the Tag Titles. It will be Daydream against The Bakuretsu Sisters on 4th January! Aino promised that she and Nodoka Tenma will explode in 2020.

Marika Kobashi announced that she passed her university entrance exam and will return to Tokyo Joshi Pro in the spring.
