5. The Young General Of Ganpro: Kouki Iwasaki defeated Ikuto Hidaka with the Vertical Drop Reverse DDT (15:29).
6. Daihyo Vs Daihyo ~ Fluorescent Lighttube Death Match: Takashi Sasaki defeated Ken Ohka with a Right Knee through lighttubes (18:48).
Way back when Ken Ohka was a high school student, he was part of the school’s baseball team. In his senior year his coach asked him if he knew what to tell the pitcher whenever they were in a pinch. The answer is “Ganbare! (Go for it!)” Those words stayed with Ohka ever since which is how Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling got its name. He was alone when he started Ganpro but gained many friends, enough that today’s show consisted entirely of matches where Ganpro took on other promotions.
The finale highlight this with Ohka taking on the FREEDOMS head honcho Takashi Sasaki in a Lighttube Death Match. Sasaki had Tomoya Hirata & Dragon Libre in his corner. Ohka purposely wore clothing similar to what he wore on the first Ganpro show eight years ago. Glass was smashed as the two fought. Ohka hit the Flame Spear but only got a two count. He went for another one with lighttubes in his arms but Sasaki smashed the glass with a Middle Kick. Ohka kicked out of a Superplex onto a pile of chairs then kicked out again after Sasaki smashed lighttubes into him with a Buzzsaw Kick. Sasaki finally put Ohka away with a Kamigoye style Right Knee through more lighttubes.
After the match Sasaki explained his history with Ohka to the fans in attendance. When Ohka first came to DDT he was a bad trainee who couldn’t do anything. According to Sasaki, he had to teach Ohka how to wrestle from scratch. This year when Ohka challenged him to a match, he was surprised. For years Sasaki thought Ohka saw him as some scary teacher that he didn’t want to remember. Now that they’ve spilled each other’s blood in a death match, it doesn’t matter if they are master and disciple. They should work hard together from now on. Sasaki told Ohka he has so many friends who support him so he should be grateful for them every day and do his best to repay them. And if Ganpro ever has any problems, Ohka is always welcome to ask Sasaki for help. Ohka said he definitely wanted to beat Sasaki today but his life will continue even though he lost. Ohka will turn 43 years old tomorrow and he will have another child later this year. That’s why he can’t stop Ganpro where it is now. He promises to make Ganpro bigger and one day defeat Takashi Sasaki! Ohka and Sasaki celebrated to “Bad Communication” to close out the show.
Kouki Iwasaki has stopped Ikuto Hidaka! It was a fight Iwasaki originally started so it was up to him to stop it in the rematch. The two almost fought to a double knockout but made it back to their feets for a final faceoff. Hidaka hit the Stray Dog High Kick but Iwasaki kept standing to give him a Back Drop. That momentum switch allowed Iwasaki to finally give Hidaka his first loss in Ganpro with the Vertical Drop Reverse DDT finishing him off. Iwasaki said he was feeling a bit silly because he took way more kicks to the head in the match than he wanted. He wanted to be nice to Hidaka though so he told him “Age is just a number!” He thanked Hidaka for becoming an important part in his pro wrestling life. Hidaka told Iwasaki he doesn’t trust anyone who acts like a good boy when they win. He won today so he should be proud of himself.
Ganpro got a win over DDT when Keisuke Ishii & Shota beat The 37KAMIINA pair of Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Ueno. Katsumata hid a firecracker and pulled it in Ishii’s mouth but it didn’t do much damage. Ishii blocked the ¡Hasta La Vista! and hit the Tiger Suplex then put him away with the Kneel Kick.
The first GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence for the new champions was a successful one. Their challengers went full steam ahead with the pWo presentation. It all went wrong though when Yumehito Imanari was struck with a Double Super Kick from Asuka & Hagane Shinno. The duo then got rid of Shigehiro Irie with a Double Spin Kick before Yuna Manase wiped them out with a Double Lariat. But with the ring cleared, Shinichiro Tominaga took his chance and pinned Imanari with the Moonsault. Backstage Tominaga said relationships are built over time but he wants his trio to become a happy unit together so they can achieve more defences. Asuka & Shinno are looking forward to that. They were all born and raised differently but they will die together! Meanwhile Irie asked Imanari what would Shinjiro Otani say to them right now? According to Imanari, Otani would say “Even if people call you chubby, love your body and keep passing that energy on to others!” Manase said she wants to win a championship with Imanari & Irie so they promised her they will get another chance some day. “pWo for life!”
Ganbare☆Joshi had a good day at the office with a win over an Actwres girl’Z team. HARUKAZE wrestled in new black and white gear that looks a lot like Tifa’s outfit from Final Fantasy VII. She also got the submission win, making Ayumi Hayashi tap out while Moeka Haruhi kept Miyuki Takase at bay.
The show began with Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano announcing they are hijacking Ganpro on behalf of the Fujita Pro Wrestling School! They proved their bad intentions by attacking THE HALFEE during their musical performance. On thing they didn’t anticipate was THE HALFEE using their numbers advantage because Moeka Haruhi briefly joined in to help her partners out. Shuichiro Katsumura tied up his opponents before tagging in Shu Sakurai to finish the job. It all went pear shaped when Fujita held onto Urano’s leg to stop him from being thrown around. Urano then stole the three count by using a European Side Headlock to roll Sakurai onto his shoulders to be pinned.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL ~WOMEN ONLY FREE BOX OFFICE~”, 04/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 110 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Mirai Maiumi defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Lariat (7:39).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Marika Kobashi and Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Famouser (7:06).
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Yuki Aino & Mahiro Kiryu when Saint-Michel pinned Kiryu after the Tarte Tatin (9:09).
4. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Raku defeated Nodoka Tenma, Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Nakajima pinned Neko with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:03).
5. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Itoh pinned Shiori with the Flying Big Head (12:25).
6. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Arisu Endo when Tatsumi submitted Endo with the Dragon Sleeper (12:47).
The first Tokyo Joshi Pro show held in front of a women only audience was considered a big success. Rika Tatsumi gathered everyone in the main event together at the end to promote TJPW’s upcoming shows and tell the fans they will be waiting for them. For the backstage comments, Tatsumi was grateful to see so many people come to see the show. Miu Watanabe has performed in front of women only crowds before at idol concerts but she had great fun wrestling in front of them too. Suzume liked seeing the fans look so happy and wondered if she looked the same back when she was a fan attending shows. Yuka Sakazaki said there was a floral smell in the air coming from the audience. Mizuki joked that they smell better than Sakazaki but she still smells nice, like bathing in the forest. Arisu Endo just laughed at them arguing and stayed out of it.
Since today was “Girl’s Day” Maki Itoh gifted Miyu Yamashita one of her ribbons to tie in her hair for their match. HikaShio pulled it out, telling her it doesn’t look good on her. Itoh wouldn’t forgive them and the match became heated from there. Itoh dropped Hikari Noa with a DDT, Yamashita hit Sena Shiori with the Skull Kick and Itoh pinned her with the Flying Big Head. Yamashita couldn’t find the ribbon after the match and left the ring feeling sad.
Traps were laid out by Hyper Misao to distract each of her opponents and isolate Haruna Neko from the rest of her team. They placed a mouse toy for Nao Kakuta to play with but Neko caught it instead. Also a rice ball was left out for Nodoka Tenma but she picked it up to eat in the ring instead of eating it at the entrance stage. Misao then attempted the ambush but was surprised to see it didn’t work. At least Shoko Nakajima & Raku were there to help get Misao out of trouble.
The usual Up Up Girls performance at the start of the show was delayed thanks to an early appearance from NEO Biishiki-gun. They thanked everyone for attending their “beauty theatre” today. Sakisama asked Mei Saint-Michel what role she would like to play. She innocently replied she wanted to play Sakisama! The real Sakisama didn’t know how to react but when it was time for their match, Saint-Michel got to wear Sakisama’s hat and attack their opponents with her rose. After they defeated Yuki Aino & Mahiro Kiryu, Sakisama told them they are best suited for playing the roles of stones and trees. When NEO Biishiki-gun wins the Princess Tag Team Titles the belts will become diamond class graded at one million carats!
Before the 3 Way Match began, all participants agreed to compete without wearing any lipstick, colored contact lenses or foundation. Anyone caught breaking that rule would be disqualified immediately. Yuki Kamifuku walked out with light makeup on her face and Marika Kobashi wore sunglasses but everyone gave each other the OK to start the match. Kobashi was targeted because of the sunglasses. She argued a Gal should have vibes so she needs to wear the glasses to replace the contact lenses. Pom Harajuku armed herself with makeup remover wiped Kamifuku’s face with it. Kamifuku used the same wipes on Kobashi before pinning Harajuku with the Famouser.
For the opening match, Mirai Maiumi stomped her feet to get the audience to clap for her and Moka Miyamoto.
The second “GO GIRL” show will take place on 11th July at Itabashi Green Hall. Today’s show was free attendance but tickets for the second show will be priced at 2,000 yen.
YAROZ “YAROZ PART 9 ~THE SAME DAY AND SAME VENUE DECISIVE BATTLE WITH THE FATEFUL BOYZ! NEVER LOSE TO THOSE WHO ARE POPULAR! RAISE UP THE YAROS! SHOW OFF A MAN’S STORY OF BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS!~”, 04/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 1st Floor 100 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

4. FFF (Fundoshi For Future) Match: Yukio Sakaguchi and Hoshitango defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani after the Birthday Double Press (4:27).
5. YaroZ-gun Vs BOYZ-gun Full Scale Battle!: Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & Ken Ohka defeated Makoto Oishi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ueno when Ohka pinned Hirata with the Flame Spear (11:26).
Today in Itabashi Green Hall there were two competing shows taking place at the same time. The 1st Floor was the location of the YaroZ show for men. In the regular room on the 2nd Floor where the pro wrestling shows are held was the BOYZ show for women. There would be invasions from both sides on both shows taking place throughout the day.
Midway through the show the special guest Tsukasa Wachi was kidnapped by a squad of BOYZ wearing bath towels led by Makoto Oishi. It was up to Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & Ken Ohka to rescue her in the main event. Oishi tried to lure Higuchi and Owashi over to the BOYZ side with the promise of Higuchi looking cool in front of Wachi and Higuchi getting booked in the BOYZ main event. When Owashi realized he was getting tricked, he lost his temper and used lucha to get rid of Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ueno. All of the BOYZ ganged up on Ohka but an opportunity opened up for the YaroZ to do a train attack. Hirata was singled out and was beaten with Ohka’s Flame Spear.
Oishi refused to let Wachi go after the match when an unlikely figure came to the rescue. Yusuke Okada attacked Oishi with a Back Elbow and freed Wachi! He learned how important the YaroZ fans are and finally accepts he is YaroZ both physically and mentally. Yukio Naya invited Wachi to come over to the post-show party at his family’s restaurant. She declined with the made up excuse that she has a photoshoot to attend at 4am. Tetsuya Endo then walked by ready to leave the venue and Wachi ran over to join him. She told him it’s time to go and they made their exit. Ohka had to remind everyone they are not doing pro wrestling to be popular but because they are YaroZ!
The 3 Way match involved Yukio Sakaguchi, Hoshitango and Nobuhiro Shimatani all wrestling in fundoshi. Shimatani had his fundoshi pulled off so he was left defenceless in order to hide his shame. Sakaguchi and Hoshitango ganged up on him until they got the double pin to both be declared the winners. Shimatani complained that he might get fired because of this so Sakaguchi and Hoshitango both agreed to take off their fundoshi as a show of solidarity. The three of them had to be forcibly removed from ringside.
Wachi’s original role on the show was to be the ring girl for the MMA match. She wanted to take off a piece of clothing after every round so everyone wanted the match to take as long as possible. However Brother Mon was told by CyberAgent’s compliance officer before the show warning him he’ll be fired if things get out of control. So Mon told Yukinori Matsui to do a proper officiating job. Instead Matsui complained when Shinya Aoki immediately tapped out Gota Ihashi and forced the match to restart. Matsui allowed Aoki to beat up Ihashi for four rounds so Wachi could take off more clothes but that ended when Brother Mon counted Aoki pinning Ihashi to end the match. Matsui attacked Mon and chaos was about to break out when Wachi stripped down to her swimsuit to stop everyone from fighting. The BOYZ then broke into the show to kidnap her and set up the main event.
Yukio Naya was introduced as Reiwa YaroZ because his father is Heisei Yaroz and his grandfather was Showa YaroZ. Danshoku Dieno saw this as strong preparation for his upcoming match with Jun Akiyama. Their match was interrupted by the Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO match from BOYZ that somehow made its way downstairs. Dieno and Naya then brawled there way upstairs to BOYZ show. While they were gone the ring announcer tried to keep everyone occupied by guessing who X was going to be at today’s New Japan show. Dieno and Naya reappeared with Yuki Iino behind them wearing Dieno’s wrestling gear. Dieno and Iino kept giving each other Lip Locks and everyone was counted out before Naya could make it back to the ring. The hosts Brother Mon and Brother Tommy at least thought it was revolutionary to have two wrestling matches interact with each other at the same time.
The beginning of the show was delayed for three minutes because Yusuke Okada and Toru Owashi both snuck off to try and join the BOYZ show. They were dragged back and Okada had to wrestle his opening match with Antonio Honda, Yuki Iino and Keigo Nakamura. He stormed off afterwards but saw the light later in the show. Meanwhile Honda, Iino & Nakamura had to prepare for wrestling in the BOYZ main event.
BOYZ “BOYZ BE AMBITIOUS! 2021”, 04/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2nd Floor 100 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Oishi & Okatani Produce Match “Okaya. Produce.”: Yuki Ueno & Kazuki Hirata defeated Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani when Hirata pinned Okatani with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (9:35).
2. Unprecedented Confrontation: Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO ended in a Double Countout (12:24).
3. Jun Masaoka Appeal For Entering Damne!? Assessment Match: Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao defeated Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka when Endo pinned Masaoka with the Shooting Star Press (16:53).
4. BOYZ Annual DDT x Ganpro Exchange Match: Akito defeated Shota with a Gannosuke Clutch Cutback (15:38).
5. BOYZ Army Vs YaroZ Army Full Scale Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima defeated Antonio Honda, Yuki Iino & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (16:29).
Today in Itabashi Green Hall there were two competing shows taking place at the same time. In the regular room on the 2nd Floor where the pro wrestling shows are held was the BOYZ show for women. The 1st Floor was the location of the YaroZ show for men. There would be invasions from both sides on both shows taking place throughout the day.
The main event of the BOYZ show was a 6-Man Tag between the two brands. The YaroZ team were confused from seeing only women in the audience when they entered the room. Yuki Iino tried to impress the audience with the Haka but got no response. Keigo Nakamura wrestled in a blonde wig that fell off when he did a Moonsault. Antonio Honda summoned his team to form a centaur but the attack fell apart when they crashed into the corner. Shunma Katsumata wiped out Honda & Iino with a dive to the outside, Toui Kojima planted Nakamura with the Full Nelson Buster and HARASHIMA hit the Somato to give the home team the victory.
The match between Akito and Shota was a clean and even wrestling match most of the way. They got tangled up in a Figure 4 Leg Lock that rolled its way out of the ring. Neither man wanted to break the hold but did so before they could get counted out. Shota sneakily grabbed a metal fitting from under the ring and hid it in Akito’s boot during a submission attempt. Daisuke Kiso later found the fitting in Akito’s boot and the distraction allowed Shota to take over with a Cradle nearfall. Shota then faked a leg injury to put Akito in position for the Gannosuke Clutch. Akito still countered the move into his own cradle to get the three count. The two shook hands after the match to show there were no hard feelings over what happened.
If Jun Masaoka genuinely wanted to join DAMNATION then he apparently failed the audition. Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao wouldn’t shake his hand before the match. Masaoka seems to make a good team with Chris Brookes anyway so maybe it’s not all that bad.
The BOYZ show crossed over into the YaroZ show during the Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO match. While they were fighting back and forth, the action took them up to the entrance and to the backstage area. Suddenly the Danshoku Dieno Vs Yukio Naya match from the YaroZ show made its way into the BOYZ show and those two fought their way into the ring. Ishii and MAO returned and the two matches got mixed up with each other until they both broke off out of the ring again. The end result was both matches ending in a double countout.
Kazuki Hirata wanted to give everyone a flashy start to the show and complained about Hideki Okatani being too plain. Makoto Oishi agreed and encouraged Okatani to do cooler moves before he would allow him to tag out. Okatani tried to do a Tornado DDT with a lot of appealing to the fans but Yuki Ueno threw him off easily. He then tried to do the High Fly Flow to Hirata but missed. Hirata easily pinned him afterwards.
Yusuke Okada was caught trying to sneak into the show during the opening introductions. He was dragged over to the YaroZ show. Toru Owashi was also there holding the KING OF BOYZ WRESTLING trophy he won at the last show. He was chased off by Yukio Sakaguchi and other YaroZ all wearing fundoshi.
Akito apologised to the audience after the show for the constant interruptions. He thinks sometimes it is okay for BOYZ and YaroZ to work together and he hopes the two sides can get along to do a single show together someday. It probably won’t be the next show though.
DDT “CHRIS BROOKES PRODUCE SHOW 3 – DANGER & PLEASURE TOUR ’96”, 04/04/2021 Saitama Wrestle Butokan 0 Fans
1. DDT Extreme Title – No DQ Falls Count Anywhere Match: Chris Brookes (c) defeated Mecha Mummy with a Jackknife Pin in the children’s pool (12:14). *V1 for Chris Brookes.
2. MEN’S Teioh, Hagane Shinno & Makoto Oishi defeated Yuki Ueno, MAO & Keigo Nakamura when Teioh pinned Nakamura after the Triple Ecstasy (13:21).
3. HARASHIMA defeated Baliyan Akki with the Somato (16:08).
The third DDT show produced in the English language for international viewers begun with the DDT Extreme Title match. The champion Chris Brookes was accompanied by Masahiro Takanashi while the challenger Mecha Mummy had a professor wearing an eyepatch by his side to overlook its performance. Brookes had the gameplan figured out. He just needed to splash water onto Mummy to make it short circuit. However Mummy was waterproofed with a face shield and wasn’t in danger. Brookes then tried using a water gun but Mummy quickly grabbed it off him and destroyed it. The Mecha Fist and Jet Scrambler were used by both wrestlers as the fight broke out around ringside. Brookes was in serious trouble when Mummy stabbed him with the Mecha Drill. Takanashi came to the rescue by pouring a can of beer over Mummy to make it short circuit. Brookes then knocked Mummy into a nearby pool with the Rocket Punch and pinned it with a Jackknife for his first successful title defence.
Mecha Mummy recovered after the match and assaulted Brookes. Suddenly a rival from Mummy’s past appeared from the stage. It was Mokujin Ken! After a staredown with much visible shaking, Mummy and Ken started fighting each other. Everyone tried to pull them apart but the broadcast got cut off.
For one night only the MEN’S Club was revived and given a chance to show the young generation what they are still made of. MEN’S Teioh wrestled throughout with a smile on his face, getting Hagane Shinno & Makoto Oishi to join in for group poses. When their opponents took control Yuki Ueno & MAO did their own poses to get one back on them. MEN’S Club had the last laugh in the end. Teioh gave Keigo Nakamura the Miracle Ecstasy but the pin was broken up. So the MEN’S Club all got together to give Nakamura the Triple Ecstasy for the finish, pose included.
Baliyan Akki was given the main event spotlight again after his impressive performance against Konosuke Takeshita back in February. This time he was pitted against HARASHIMA. They got tangled up together with dual Ankle Holds and the stalemate was broken up when Akki hit a Topé Con Hilo to the outside. HARASHIMA tried using his strikes to fight back but was almost beaten with the Firebird Splash. HARASHIMA used his knees to block the Namaste Press but Akki was able to catch the Somato for a submission attempt. HARASHIMA reach the ropes and won a strike exchange, finishing Akki off with a Super Kick, the Reverse Frankensteiner and then the Somato for the victory.
Brookes and Mr. HAKU held an English roundtable with Akki, MAO and Ueno after the show. Brookes said whenever he books shows, he does not want to be the main character. He prefers to put the spotlight on other wrestlers. He doesn’t know what is going to happen at the next show between Mecha Mummy and Mokujin Ken. He is at least relieved that Ken came to the rescue, otherwise the next show would have become a Mecha Mummy produce with everyone turned into mecha wrestlers. For the MEN’S Club match Brookes said he has always been a fan of the unit after watching loads of Big Japan shows. He watched one of their matches with MAO recently and learned that MAO is also a fan. MAO was happy to do the match because his style is the 2000s Jr. Heavyweight wrestling that came from the likes of Michinoku Pro and Toryumon. Ueno then had to be part of the match because he is MAO’s stablemate. Nakamura was the third wrestler added because the original choice had a scheduling conflict. For the main event Brookes wanted to see Akki in a different environment. Drew Parker came up with the idea to do Akki Vs HARASHIMA. Akki promised to get beers for Parker the next time he sees him as long as Parker doesn’t show up bloody.

6. Junretsu Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi defeated Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata when Oishi submitted Katsumata with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (15:41).
Before the main event began, Shunma Katsumata reminded everyone that Konosuke Takeshita has taken the month off to evolve. Katsumata said he wants to evolve too and will do so in the sauna while he waits for Takeshita’s return. Jun Akiyama put up a bet where if his team won then Katsumata would have to invite him to a sauna. If The 37KAMIINA won then Makoto Oishi would agree to let Katsumata hold his baby daughter. Yusuke Okada was in Junretsu’s corner for the match and encouraged Akiyama to hurt Katsumata. He explained it’s because he is supposed to hate BOYZ wrestlers after he was labelled a YaroZ wrestler. Junretsu ended up winning with Oishi tapping out Katsumata while Akiyama blocked off Yuki Ueno.
After the match Akiyama told Katsumata to prepare five sauna invites because Akiyama wants to bring his family with him. Their victory speech was interrupted by Danshoku Dieno. He walked out carrying the defeated body of Hideki Okatani who he beat earlier in the show. Dieno warned that on 11th April, Akiyama will end up like this because the impossible can happen in DDT! Dieno stuck his middle finger up Okatani’s butt and then flipped off Akiyama with it.
Tetsuya Endo wanted to pay tribute to Ryuichi Sekine by doing the Let’s Combine in his match. However his opponents kept cutting him off. Meanwhile Yuji Hino and Yuki Iino continued their feud by fighting and chopping each other around ringside. Endo finally locked in the Let’s Combine on HARASHIMA thanks to Daisuke Sasaki using the Crossface Lock on Iino and Hino grabbing Chris Brookes to cut them all off. Hino countered Iino’s Spear with a Lariat but couldn’t get the pin. DAMNATION eliminated the loose ends so Hino could do the Fucking BOMB. He then pinned Iino with what he calls the Best German Suplex In The World. Hino promoted a show he is doing on 23rd May in Chiba 2AW Square after the match.
The return of springtime means Mad Paulie is in heat again, red face and all. Eruption had to apply the Sleeper Hold from Yukio Sakaguchi and the Brain Claw from Kazusada Higuchi at the same time to stop his rampage.
Dieno purposely did Danshoku versions of Akiyama’s moveset against Okatani. He then abducted Okatani after beating him, setting up the end of show angle already mentioned above.
Several Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changes took place during Match #2 while the belt holder was not a legal participant. Kazuki Hirata pinned his own tag partner Saki Akai then ran off backstage with the belt. Yukinori Matsui chased after him and the fans suddenly heard a three count followed by the bell ringing. DJ Nira then walked out carrying the Iron Man Title but he explained he wasn’t the new champion. The new champion is a stuffed toy of Chiba-kun, the mascot of Chiba! Hirata ran out, attacked Chiba-kun and was easily out-wrestled by the toy. MAO grabbed the toy and gave it the Michinoku Driver II but Hirata kicked him away and stole the pin, becoming champion again. The actual match ended with Antonio Honda pinning Hirata to win the title. Akai then pinned Honda for the belt and spent the rest of the show fighting off attackers.

6. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino, Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Miu Watanabe & Marika Kobashi when Tenma pinned Kobashi with the Killswitch (13:41).
Hyper Misao said her team today have all bonded together because they are a bunch of hero otakus. Their big combination move involved Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Shoko Nakajima all lifting up Misao and charging her into their opponents like a battering ram. However their opponents kept dodging out of the way and Misao hit into the turnbuckle many times. Miu Watanabe then put Misao in a submission and her partners did their own triple team move. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Marika Kobashi all grabbed the bottom rope and leaned back from the ring apron, chanting “Do your best!” to Misao as she tried to reach over for the rope that was being pulled away from her. The Magical Sugar Rabbits prevented The Bakuretsu Sisters from doing the Bakuretsu Bulldog on Kobashi. But the match whittled down to Tenma pinned Kobashi with the Killswitch.
Nao Kakuta wanted to confront Yuki Kamifuku after their match but Kamifuku pushed her away and left.
Both Raku and Sena Shiori hid under the ring for Miyu Yamashita’s entrance so they could ambush her together. Their teamwork eventually faded away and the match became more like the 3 Way it was supposed to be. From there Yamashita was able to pick apart her opponents and win.
