1. Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Masahiro Takanashi & Soma Takao when Naya submitted Takanashi with the Modified Torture Cobra Twist (8:29).
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ishida ended in a No Contest (?:??).
3. Special Tag Match: Maya Yukihi & Akito defeated Saki Akai & Antonio Honda when Yukihi pinned Honda with the Snowstorm (9:30).
4. Daisuke Sasaki, Minoru Fujita & MJ Paul defeated HARASHIMA, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuya Koroku when Sasaki submitted Koroku with the Llave (12:11).
5. Konosuke Takeshita defeated Hideki Okatani with the Zahi (9:58).
6. Yokohama Specialty Special Tag Match: Asuka & Yuji Hino defeated MAO & Chris Brookes when Asuka pinned MAO with the Michinoku Driver II (15:07).
7. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima when Endo pinned Kojima with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (20:27).

If Yuki Ueno wants to lead The 37KAMIINA in Konosuke Takeshita’s absence then he still has a lot of work to do. Tetsuya Endo was one step ahead of him, laying him out with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb before pinning Toui Kojima with the same move. Endo said afterwards if Ueno can’t protect his friends then how can he make it to the top in DDT? He then made a joke about how Ueno was replaced with an invisible man for the Hiragana Muscle shows this week. If Ueno doesn’t work harder for the rest of the month then Endo might as well replace him with The Invisible Man for the KO-D Openweight Title match on 1st May! Endo guarantees a successful title defence against either of them.

Today was the first time Asuka & Yuji Hino teamed together in DDT. Outside of DDT they are associated with each other through the Revengers unit in ZERO1. They were an effective duo against MAO & Chris Brookes, using their finishers on them at the same time for the win. Asuka warned MAO that he is weak and too busy fooling around. He better be careful or else Asuka will win the DDT Universal Title on 1st May. MAO excused the loss on running out of MP despite still claiming to have a lot of HP. He has been busy doing so many things since winning the Universal Title like having matches on the streets and performing on five Muscle shows in three days. That is why his MP gauge has become empty.

Maya Yukihi couldn’t believe she got to wrestle Antonio Honda today. When she first saw DDT it was Honda who impressed her the most. She knew how to deal with him by doing the Bionic Elbow dance to throw him off his game. However just like everyone else she fell for his Gongitsune stalling tactics. Saki Akai joined in to poke Akito in the eyes. Shen then tried to Gongitsune Poke on Yukihi but she blocked it and rolled up Honda to win the match. Akai told Yukihi this match was her being welcomed into the deeper world of DDT. She is looking forward to the two of them beating Cherry & Miyako Matsumoto on 10th April.

Earlier in the show, Hisaya Imabayashi interrupted the Pheromones match after they crossed the line like they usually do. However this time instead of attacking him in response, they left him alone. Later on they came back out and asked Imabayashi what match they will be in on 1st May. He hadn’t decided on anything yet so Danshoku Dieno said there is an opponent he would really like to fight… Imabayashi himself! The GM started panicking and refused to book the match causing Pheromones to attack him. All of a sudden AKIRA ran down to the ring and made the save. He heard about what Pheromones has been doing and offered to team with Imabayashi to stop them together. Imabayashi said he couldn’t do it because he is not a wrestler. AKIRA told him he is a father. What would his children think if they didn’t see him stand up for himself? Imabayashi agreed but said they needed an extra man to even the odds. AKIRA brought up the time they wrestled each other on a MUSCLE show over 15 years ago. He remembers there was someone else back then. Muscle Sakai! The three of them will join forces to crush Pheromones!

Hino took pride in himself and Yukio Naya both winning their matches today. Naya made Masahiro Takanashi submit for the second time in a row. It has left Takanashi feel like giving up for good but he made a promise continue doing his best for Brookes.

The mystery man who showed up today is KANON, the wrestler who was recently associated with JUST TAP OUT. It was announced last month he was leaving JTO and today is his first day as a freelancer. He told the audience he was looking for a new battleground and found out that DDT has many strong wrestlers from his generation. This kind of place makes him want to test his potential. His first match here will be against Yuki Ishida on 10th April.
