7. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku when Takeshita pinned Koroku with the Zahi (17:35).
Before the main event began, Jun Akiyama tried to roll up MAO in a failed attempt to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. MAO spent the rest of the show paranoid that someone else was going to ambush him. Konosuke Takeshita tried to calm him down after the match but that didn’t stop Shunma Katsumata from trying to win the belt while they were leaving the ring.
Tetsuya Endo is feeling down about BURNING losing to The 37KAMIINA twice in a row. He is continuing to learn by losing and wants Yuya Koroku to learn that lesson too. Akiyama backs up that point by encouraging Endo to keep hitting them regardless of the result because fighting against a champion will always make you better. Endo also believes everyone in BURNING is on the same wavelength which is good for a unit that has only been around for a month.
DAMNATION T.A told Eruption they will see them in the Ultimate Tag League finals. That’s if Eruption can make it to the final. Daisuke Sasaki said the KO-D Tag Team Titles are coming to him & MJ Paul. He wants that message sent to Minoru Fujita too. Kazusada Higuchi told Hideki Okatani that if the likes of Sasaki is laughing at him now, you have to shut them up!
The show aired live on DDT’s Youtube channel which meant Hisaya Imabayashi was as concerned as ever because the Pheromones match would probably get them banned. So of course Pheromones got their hands on him and did lewd things to get their match called off. Danshoku Dieno called the GM selfish for his attempts to stop them. He then warned that Pheromones will survive the Tag League using their values.
Vent Vert Jack used an Ankle Hold he recently learned from Masakatsu Funaki to defeat El Unicorn. According to Jack, Funaki has made him his last disciple and he passed down two moves to him, one of them being the Ankle Hold. Jack’s dream is to inherit the two moves and bring them to Mexico. He also wants DDT to continue booking him so he can wrestle more teenagers like him all over Japan. Unicorn is following the same lesson as Endo. He’s lost four matches in a row but is using those experiences to learn and get stronger.
Everyone was suspicious that the debuting Shishamo Power is really Toru Owashi under the mask. Antonio Honda explained that Power was trained by Owashi but they are two different people. Akito & Yukio Naya tried to unmask him until Honda fed him shishamo to power up and fight back. A missed chair attack from Naya hit Akito by mistake and Power pinned him with La Magistral. Shishamo said his coach Owashi is really cool and he will sell a lot of his T-shirts.
Naya has been getting frustrated with being away from shows and having no matches for the last three weeks. He never got covid during this period but keeps getting into close contact with other patients so all he could do was stay home and watch DDT videos. Now that he is back he wants to win the Tag League more than anything else. Yuji Hino advises him to be strong and promises to make Naya explode in the tournament.
Newly retired Yuto Aijima appeared after intermission to start off the second half. He thanked people like Genichiro Tenryu and Toshiaki Kawada for sending him video messages for his retirement ceremony. He also vowed to continue making the Kyushu wrestling scene a lively place.
