Today’s set of DDT Extreme Title defences took place at a “Hell Gate” located in the mountains near Sammu City, Chiba. Sanshiro Takagi met with a mysterious man who was there to guide him to the Hell Gate. It was a vast open space of land where Takagi would fight against Nariagari, an elite group of amateur pro wrestlers under the tutelage of Danshoku Dieno. When Takagi met with Dieno, they noticed there was no referee around. One of the Nariagari wrestlers Hen China was told to put on a sports jersey and officiate the matches.

Takagi’s first challenger was Tawaramachi Kid Jr. This masked wrestler wore a happi coat and armed with wooden stick instruments to cheer himself on. Takagi quickly submitted him with a Dragon Sleeper.

The second defence was against Satoru Otake, a normal everyday salaryman. Otake handed Takagi his business card then hit him with his briefcase. He screamed about being a newlywed who needs money. Takagi rolled him onto the ground and soccer kicked him in the back before pinning him.

The third challenger then appeared, an English speaking backpacker named Kai. Takagi gave him a Soccer Ball Kick but the backpack worked as a shield against it. Kai put Takagi in a Crossface Lock but Takagi freed himself by stealing Kai’s passport and throwing it away. Takagi put Kai in the STF. Kai reached towards his passport on the ground but gave up when Takagi rolled him away still in the STF.

Next up was a doctor who simply went by the name of Benio. He didn’t look threatening in his medical coat but when he took it off, he meant business. Benio threw a Lariat and smiled when Takagi hit him back with Chops. Takagi gave him the Stunner but Benio still smiled and wouldn’t fall down. Takagi eventually got him on the ground with a Lariat and made Benio submit to a Half Crab Hold.

The fifth and apparently final challenger made his way to confront Takagi. Shinya “The Wandering Metaller” carried an electric guitar and declared today as his debut match. Takagi avoided the guitar attacks and had Shinya beaten when another mystery man suddenly appeared…

The man was Zosaku Inoue, one of Nariagari’s Heavenly Four Kings! He blew fire from Hell at Takagi, scaring him away. Shinya joined in and also blew fire from the opposite side, trapping the champion and hurting him greatly. Shinya went for the pin when suddenly Rambo Kawamura ran in to rescue Takagi! He fought off Shinya with his machine gun and knocked him out for Takagi to pin him. Takagi asked him why he came to help and Kawamura said he didn’t want to see these guys take the DDT Extreme Title from his “Colonel”. From here the two of them decided on teaming together to fight the Heavenly Four Kings.

Together they started their search. Kawamura told Takagi he forgot the Extreme Title belt earlier so he grabbed it and gave it back to him. They then approached Dieno with two of the Heavenly Kings: Inoue and Super Nikuyaki Machine. They challenged Takagi & Kawamura to a Meat Grilled Death Match right away! Nikuyaki emptied a bag of metal grills and tongs. Kawamura used the tongs to pull a bullet out of his stomach. Takagi slammed Nikuyaki onto the grills with the Spicolli Driver for the victory. Inoue ran away, abandoning his partner. Takagi & Kawamura decided to give the fallen Nikuyaki an honorable goodbye and they buried him under the grills.

They reached a power line structure and found an imposing figure waiting for them. It was Akinori Ariji. Hen China took off his jersey and joined his side. They were the two remaining Heavenly Kings! Satoru Otake returned to be the referee for the final match between the two teams. China blew into a vuvuzela to distract Takagi then attacked him with glow sticks. Kawamura meanwhile tried to poison Ariji by force feeding him grass. Zosaku Inoue returned to blow more fire at Takagi, allowing the other Kings to throw Takagi into a castle of chairs nearby. Takagi grabbed a chair and broke it over Ariji’s head. Kawamura then shot Ariji in the head with a suction cup arrow at point blank range. Takagi finished him off with the Spicolli Driver to complete today’s quest.

The Nariagari wrestlers all gathered around for Takagi to speak to them. He called them strong and admitted he probably would have lost eventually if Kawamura did not come to his aid. He asked Dieno if they are doing more than just training. Have they only done one show previously behind closed doors? That won’t get through to anybody. They should be given the spotlight more often. Takagi encouraged Nariagari to hold a second show this time in front of an audience. Kawamura offered to take part because he doesn’t have a job to keep him occupied.
