6. Makoto Oishi 42 Year Old Local Triumph! Fuji Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Mizuki Watase defeated HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes & Kazuki Hirata when Oishi submitted Hirata with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (17:18).
The show was all about Makoto Oishi wrestling in front of his hometown crowd. Kazuki Hirata stole some of the spotlight by dancing in front of Jun Akiyama for his entrance. The final moments of the match saw Oishi and Hirata scramble for the win. Oishi ended up catching his opponent in the Fujiyama Knee Lock for the submission victory. After the match Oishi said he wanted to show off Mt. Fuji to everyone who travelled from Tokyo but it was too cloudy to see the view. Instead they got to see the Fujiyama Knee Lock which is the next best thing. He was also happy to wrestle in front of his daughter Akari for the first time but she slept through his entrance (and possibly the entire match) in Misaki Ohata’s arms. Akiyama said she will grow up to be a big deal someday. He also won’t forgive Hirata for his dancing.
The DDT Sauna Club continues to boost through the rest of the roster, this time beating DAMNATION. The well oiled team lifted up Nobuhiro Shimatani for Shunma Katsumata to do a Diving X Factor on. DAMNATION were there to break the count but couldn’t stop MAO from finishing him off. Katsumata told the fans he wants the Sauna Club to challenge for either the KO-D Tag Team Titles or the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. Backstage Yuki Ueno kept telling him a team of four can’t challenge for a trios championship. Katsumata waved him off and kept telling him over and over the club’s bond has deepened.
Kazusada Higuchi said he will not let Akiyama win their block in the D-Ou Grand Prix. He seems to be a little annoyed that all the wrestling press is putting Akiyama as the favorite.
Danshoku Dieno gave Hideki Okatani advice before their tag match. He said if Okatani wants to win a championship in the soonest time possible, he should wrestle with his tights pulled down just like Dieno tends to do. Dieno kept telling him that wrestling wit his backside exposed will definitely make him stronger. Okatani eventually gave in but Yukio Sakaguchi did the same and pinned him with the Gaydo Clutch while both their shorts were pulled down.
The second match was briefly paused so Antonio Honda and Keigo Nakamura could both get their skin checked by the beauty product sponsor C’bon Corporation. Honda was judged to have cleaner skin and that caused great damage to Nakamura. Honda ended up winning with a skin smooth Diving Fist Drop.
