DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN KORAKUEN HALL”, 21/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda, Akito & Yusuke Okada Vs Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura, Kazuki Hirata, Saki Akai & Yuki Ishida
0. Dark Match Shunma Katsumata Produce – My First Hardcore Match: Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima Vs Hideki Okatani & Yuya Koroku
1. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Soma Takao & Mizuki Watase
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Yuji Hino, MAO & Yukio Naya
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Jun Akiyama (4) Vs Bodyguard (4)
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: HARASHIMA (0) Vs Yuji Okabayashi (7)
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Konosuke Takeshita (7) Vs Kazusada Higuchi (4)
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Tetsuya Endo (6) Vs Yuki Ueno (4)

The last day of the group stages is coming down to the wire in both blocks. If Tetsuya Endo wins the main event or it ends in a draw then he qualifies for the final. I think if Yuki Ueno wins he will go straight to the final because he will get the Head To Head tiebreakers over Endo and Yuji Hino. Where it gets confusing is if Jun Akiyama or Bodyguard also wins and we end up with a four way tie. I guess it would still be Ueno because he will have two Head To Head wins in this bubble and the others will just have one. Does that come into effect with Bodyguard thought because he already beat Ueno? Oh my head hurts.

The B Block is more simpler. The race is between Konosuke Takeshita and Yuji Okabayashi who are both unbeaten. If they still end up with the same points after their matches then a sudden death tiebreaker must take place. Their previous match was a draw so there is no other way to determine who goes through (I think there was a G1 that used total match times as a tiebreaker one year but we’re getting too far into the weeds at this point).

Kenta Kobashi and Tetsu Inada will be at the show. Maybe they can figure out the tiebreakers.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 AUTUMN ~KACHO GETSURO~”, 23/11/2021

Pom Harajuku is celebrating her 3rd anniversary as a pro wrestler next week so she gets to relive her debut match all over again. She takes on her first ever opponent Yuka Sakazaki in the very same venue where her career began back in 2018.

Two days before they have their match in Korakuen, Hyper Misao and Yuki Kamifuku face off in tag team action.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “DASH! GLIDE! NAGOYA CASTLE!”, 18/12/2021
Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall

1. Special Single Match: Miyu Yamashita Vs Yuki Arai

The biggest challenge of Yuki Arai’s pro wrestling life is coming. She has been asking for a match against Miyu Yamashita and it will happen at her idol home base in Nagoya.

DDT “DRAMATIC EXPLOSION 2021”, 18/12/2021
Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall

1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Susumu Yokosuka, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Akito
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Current Blast Death Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari (c) Vs Atsushi Onita, Sanshiro Takagi & Kuro-chan

The feud between Sanshiro Takagi and Pheromones is reaching extreme levels. A team was needed to take on Takagi, Atsushi Onita & Kuro-chan in the Current Blast Death Match so the challenge was thrown out for Pheromones to put the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line!

Last time Toru Owashi invited a DRAGONGATE wrestler over to a DDT show in Nagoya it worked out pretty well. He’s doing it again by booking Susumu Yokosuka to team with him and Kazuki Hirata. Bet Yokosuka is thrilled, we all know about his dancing efforts. This will be his first time in DDT proper if you ignore the Dramatic Dream Gate shows from 2007 and 2008.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN OSAKA” Results

November 14, 2021

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN OSAKA”, 14/11/2021
Osaka 176BOX
229 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Yusuke Okada defeated Toru Owashi & Yuki Ishida and Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima when Endo pinned Kojima with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (6:07).
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Yuya Koroku when Iino submitted Koroku with the Sexy Death Lock (8:53).

6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Konosuke Takeshita (7) defeated HARASHIMA (0) with the Roll-Through German Suplex (16:19).
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Yuji Okabayashi (7) defeated Kazusada Higuchi (4) with the Golem Splash (23:39).

A Block

1. Tetsuya Endo (6)
-. Yuji Hino (6)
3. Bodyguard (4)
-. Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Jun Akiyama (4)
6. Naomi Yoshimura (2)

B Block

1. Konosuke Takeshita (7)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (7)
3. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
-. Chris Brookes (4)
-. MAO (4)
6. HARASHIMA (0)

The race in B Block is as tight as it ever could be between two people. Yuji Okabayashi kept up his unbeaten streak by defeating Kazusada Higuchi. In a show of bravado during the match Higuchi told the crowd he was about to do the Golem Splash. But when he climbed the ropes, Okabayashi rushed up to him and did an Avalanche Brainbuster. Okabayashi then said he would do the Golem Splash and Higuchi did the same Avalanche Brainbuster to him. Clashing Lariats afterward almost knocked both of them out but they each got back up before the 10 count. Okabayashi deflected the Brain Claw with more Lariats but that along with a Power Bomb couldn’t keep Higuchi down. It took the Golem Splash hit full and proper for Okabayashi to finally win. He told Higuchi after the match that they would fight each other again some day.

Konosuke Takeshita also won his match today in order to stay neck and neck with Okabayashi. The victory was over the winless HARASHIMA, continuing the longtime veteran’s fall from grace throughout this edition of the D-Ou Grand Prix. HARASHIMA missing the Somato gave Takeshita the opening to win with the Roll-Through German Suplex. The result is not being taken for granted. Takeshita knew HARASHIMA is in good shape despite his losing streak. What’s different is Takeshita’s generation have now figured out their own ways of beating the old guard in DDT after studying them. For example, Takeshita says he has about 10 ways to counter the Somato and he used 3 or 4 of them today. On the final day Takeshita has to face Higuchi while Okabayashi will take on HARASHIMA. The results will decide who goes through to the grand final which is all the motivation Higuchi and HARASHIMA need to play spoiler.

With nothing to fight for except pride in their final block match, Chris Brookes and MAO took it upon themselves to make a mess around the venue. They fought outside the ring where MAO tried to run Brookes over with a massive truck tyre. They then went up to the balcony and Brookes tried to throw MAO over the railing. If that wasn’t enough they took the fight outside the building. The audience that stayed inside had to look at Makoto Oishi promoting Wrestle Universe while they waited for the wrestlers to return. Outside the building there was a castle of chairs built for Brookes to crash MAO into. As they chased each other back inside, Brookes gave MAO the Praying Mantis Bomb through some chairs. He then wedged MAO upside down into a stack of other chairs and made it back to the ring in time to be declared the winner by countout. Brookes said the result was not a surprise because MAO is stupid and easy to beat. MAO said Brookes was meant to be in DDT and this is the DDT he fell in love with.

Over in the A Block the competitive field has become more open with today’s results. Bodyguard cut off Yuki Ueno’s momentum with his sheer power. He blocked the WR and used the Rising High Kick to great effect. Once Ueno was put into the Rising Dragon he had nothing left and the match was stopped. Ueno’s back and forth results makes him think he is alternating between dream and reality. He’s been learning more about himself in this tournament than he was when he held the DDT Universal Title. He now has to fight Tetsuya Endo on the final day while Bodyguard meets Jun Akiyama.

Yuji Hino shares the top spot with Endo going into the final day. Unlucky Naomi Yoshimura didn’t have the power in his Lariats to put down the bigger opponent. Instead Hino lifted him up and Fuckin’ BOMBed him for the win. Now all Hino has left to do is wait and see how the remaining block matches on 21st November will go. It’s out of his hands right now. Yoshimura thinks it is pathetic that he could only win one match in this tournament. He can’t figure out how he was able to beat Yuki Ueno but lose to everyone else. He doesn’t know what is keeping him from beating Jun Akiyama or what the difference is between himself and Yuji Hino. He is a tag champion but didn’t bring the belt for all of his matches because he was focused on singles wrestling. All he can promise right now is to work harder in both singles and tag wrestling from now on for both himself and DISASTER BOX.

A bombshell was dropped at the start of the show when the GM Hisaya Imabayashi was convinced to join Pheromones! At first they were going to take him hostage but Danshoku Dieno started asking when was the last time Sanshiro Takagi said “thank you” to him? The GM made his decision by giving Takagi a Stunner. He then started screaming “Employees are not slaves! Raise their Wages! Give them more holidays!” before storming off with his new allies. Takagi told the audience Imabayashi was just tired from working hard.

Imabayashi came back out for the Pheromones match continuing to his rallying cry for workers around the country to stand up against their bosses. Dieno offered him a chair to attack Takagi with but Imabayashi had a change of heart and couldn’t do it. He then gave Dieno a Brainbuster when Dieno tried to bully him! Pheromones knocked him out while Yuki Iino submitted Yuya Koroku to win. After the match Takagi challenged Pheromones for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as revenge for them harming his employee. His tag partners are going to be Atsushi Onita and Kuro-chan. That’s right, the Current Blast Death Match happening in Nagoya on 18th December is now a title defence for Pheromones! Dieno threatened to blast Takagi in every position Imabayashi was blasted in. When they left, Takagi told an unconscious Imabayashi to please come to work on time tomorrow morning. He’ll be limited to only working 8 hours a day so he won’t get tired again. But that’s it!

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN KYOTO” Results

November 13, 2021

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN KYOTO”, 13/11/2021
Kyoto KBS Hall
263 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Toru Owashi & Toui Kojima and Yukio Naya & Hideki Okatani when Dieno pinned Kojima after the Pheromone Jiyaki (9:07).
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: MAO (4) defeated HARASHIMA (0) with the Clothespin Roll (12:56).
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi (4) defeated Chris Brookes (2) with the Hold Down Brain Claw (14:49).
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Tetsuya Endo (6) defeated Bodyguard (2) with the Shooting Star Press (12:11).
5. Kyoto Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & Saki Akai defeated Yuji Okabayashi, Yusuke Okada & Momoka Hanazono when Akai pinned Hanazono with the Rookie Award (18:58).
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Jun Akiyama (4) defeated Naomi Yoshimura (2) with a Turn Back Power Bomb (15:17).
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Yuki Ueno (4) defeated Yuji Hino (4) with the WR (16:25).

A Block

1. Tetsuya Endo (6)
2. Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Yuji Hino (4)
-. Jun Akiyama (4)
5. Bodyguard (2)
-. Naomi Yoshimura (2)

B Block

1. Konosuke Takeshita (5)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (5)
3. MAO (4)
-. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
5. Chris Brookes (2)
6. HARASHIMA (0)

We are now long past the halfway point and approaching the home stretch of the D-Ou Grand Prix. The races for 1st place are getting tighter at the top. In the A Block Yuki Ueno has caught up after an upset win over Yuji Hino. He slipped out of the Fuckin’ BOMB and pinned Hino with the WR to score what he thinks is the most important win of the tournament. It’s a good thing too because Hino left his mark on Ueno’s chest anyway.

Also in A Block was a must win match for both Jun Akiyama and Naomi Yoshimura. The winner would remain in the chase for first while the loser would be eliminated from contention. In the end it just wasn’t to be for Yoshimura. Akiyama stopped the Throwaway Power Bomb with a Jackknife pin to get the three count. He describes Yoshimura like he is still a junior high school student. If Yoshimura understands what he means then he will get closer to beating him.

While all of that is going on below, Tetsuya Endo is currently standing at the top. He is two points in the lead after beating Bodyguard. This time the Shooting Star Press did not fail him. In fact he thinks today’s one was the best he ever hit. His last opponent is Yuki Ueno and he isn’t worried about him. If Ueno couldn’t beat Daisuke Sasaki then what hope does he have against Endo? But first Ueno has to face Bodyguard tomorrow in Osaka. Bodyguard said if he loses in his hometown then thousands of fans will be sad over it.

Over in the B Block, Chris Brookes is now out of the running. Kazusada Higuchi pinned him with the mighty Brain Claw in a match where both felt like they switched nationalities. Before the match Brookes said he would use his Yamato Spirit to win. Higuchi after the match said he felt like a British knight. He duels with Yuji Okabayashi tomorrow.

HARASHIMA continues to be winless in his block while MAO’s use of the Clothespin continues to pay off for him. MAO feels like he grows after every match he has with HARASHIMA and today continued that. Meanwhile HARASHIMA has accepted the reality of his tournament run. The only thing he can do to save face now is to finish with some points. That is why he will fight Konosuke Takeshita and Okabayashi with everything that he has.

Then to cap it off, Arai challenged Miyu Yamashita to a singles match in Nagoya on 18th December. The two have previously talked about doing that match and today was Arai’s official challenge. They agreed that Arai has improved since the last time they were in the ring together in Nagoya. Yamashita warned Arai that she will show her no mercy as long as they fight. Arai admits she isn’t ready to be involved with any championship matches yet so her interest is just in fighting Yamashita.

5. Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto Vs SAGAT & Fuminori Abe

After looking into the recent rule changes in Japan, BASARA will allow their audience to cheer at their show tomorrow. I think this will be one of the first wrestling shows in Japan to get loud fans back but it is on a very small scale. BASARA have kept their attendance numbers private throughout the entire pandemic for a reason. It’s progress towards getting a good atmosphere back in Japanese wrestling shows but it won’t be a big crowd to begin with.

It took three matches for Jun Akiyama to finally get a win and score some points. He just had to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat against the undefeated Tetsuya Endo to do it. Endo threw his big moves and almost pinned Akiyama with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb. Seeing the end in sight, Endo then hit the Shooting Star Press but Akiyama caught hold of Endo on the mat and rolled him over for a three count out of nowhere. Even Akiyama was surprised by the result because Endo had more energy. He joked that maybe it’s because Endo is out showing his ass all the time. Endo pointed out he only lost once in this D-Ou Grand Prix and he will win the rest of his matches so keep an eye on him. Akiyama knows he is in survival mode with one win and two losses so far. He has no choice but to win from here on out.

The meeting of former Nautilus partners saw Naomi Yoshimura defeat Yuki Ueno. It was a much needed win for Yoshimura personally because it shows he can still do it. Ueno broke his heart by ending their team then went on to take the glory. But today is a reminder that Yoshimura is still unbeaten against Ueno in singles matches. He faces Akiyama next and finds himself in a similar position. Whoever loses will be out of contention for the final. Ueno noticed that Yoshimura hasn’t been enjoying himself in his matches lately. He wishes he would go out there to have more fun. Ueno also joked that he hates Yoshimura now because Yoshimura beat him today.

The two outsiders collided in Block A when Yuji Hino faced Bodyguard. Hino pulled out an Exploder Suplex to weaken his opponent for a Lariat afterward. The Fuckin’ BOMB then finished Bodyguard off. A surprised Hino cannot figure out where Bodyguard gets his power from because he is an over 50 year old man. Hino would like to grow old like that. But he doesn’t share the enthusiasm for his next opponent Yuki Ueno. Bodyguard calls Hino a monster and he will watch the match back to figure out why he lost to him. He has Tetsuya Endo to worry about next too.

Block B is turning into a two horse race. Yuji Okabayashi put away Chris Brookes to reach 5 points. A chop battle proved Brookes was capable of throwing the same amount of punishment he could take from his stronger opponent. He tried to outsmart him to by applying a Samson Clutch for a flash nearfall. Okabayashi took control though and squashed Brookes with the Golem Splash to win. He was impressed to find power and skill from a wrestler he thought was just thin and tall. He’s ready to fight Kazusada Higuchi head on next. Brookes doesn’t want to give up yet. He is getting motivation from having Masahiro Takanashi and Drew Parker in his corner. His next match is also against Higuchi and will happen before the Okabayashi match.

Konosuke Takeshita is keeping up with Okabayashi neck and neck in first place. He is also at 5 points after beating MAO in an all The 37KAMIINA match-up. MAO applied the Clothespin hold he used to beat Higuchi but Takeshita powered out of it. MAO then went for the Cannonball 450 but Takeshita rolled out of the way. The German Suplex and Zahi couldn’t put MAO down so Takeshita had to submit him with the Plus Ultra. The match was close but Takeshita thinks he is now the strongest he has ever been. His evolution over the past year has been significant so he now has to get ready for HARASHIMA. MAO on the other hand doesn’t think the match was close at all and thinks it was a complete defeat. The gap between him and Takeshita is getting bigger but MAO hopes some day he will win on the big stage.

Nobody has come forward to challenge Daisuke Sasaki for the DDT Universal Title so he decided to nominate his own challenger. He wants Yuki Ishida, the rookie that he and MJ Paul just beat today. Hisaya Imabayashi refused to book the match because Ishida has only been wrestling for a month. Soma Takao then ran out and attacked Sasaki. He said he just wanted to talk but now that Sasaki is looking for a challenger, he will step up. He promised to take everything Sasaki has got and humiliate him too. Sasaki claims he still isn’t interested in Takao but he will wrestle him once before he takes on his real challenger. It might be Ishida or it might not depending on what mood Sasaki will be in. Imabayashi booked the title match for Korakuen Hall on 5th December. The champion coming out of it will then defend the title in Yoyogi on the 26th.

The opening match saw Hideki Okatani betray his own partner Akito by pinning him for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. This was while the match was still going on. He tried to escape but Kazuki Hirata dragged him back to the ring and outwrestled him to win the match and also the belt. Toru Owashi then pinned Hirata with a School Boy to take the title and add it to his growing collection of championships. Hirata tried to School Boy Owashi back but couldn’t make him budge.
