7. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: MAO & Yuki Ueno defeated Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku when MAO pinned Koroki with the Avalanche Michinoku Driver II (21:26).
Some of the main event spent time outside the ring where Tetsuya Endo knocked MAO onto the others below and then did a Moonsault onto everybody. Back in the ring MAO took the victory by pinning Yuya Koroku with the Avalanche Michinoku Driver II. Backstage Yuki Ueno described a title match as a clash of beliefs and convictions. There is no need for an answer, just for MAO to show what he thinks and Endo to show what he thinks. For The 37KAMIINA they are going their own way to make DDT and themselves more exciting.
Makoto Oishi promised to protect Yuji Hino from Pheromones on tomorrow’s show because it will be their last match before the KO-D Openweight Title bout next Wednesday. However Hino thinks he is taking on Yuki “Strong” Iino and believes it will be an interesting match next week. Danshoku Dieno said Iino is now ready to be champion and when he does, Yuki “Sexy” Iino will be unleashed again! Hino agrees that Iino is strong but Hino is super strong!
Today was one of mixed feelings for Shunma Katsumata. On the bright side today is the 9th Anniversary of Katsumata’s debut match. On the down side he was beaten by Jun Akiyama. The fighting between the two got intense with the both of them attacking each other with chairs outside the ring. Akiyama then sent his message loud and clear by pinning Katsumata clean with the Exploder Suplex. He called today’s a perfect result and wants to remind everyone he is going to use Toy Kojima as a weapon in the TLC Match. Katsumata knows he is going to face an even scarier version of Akiyama at that match but he will still give him a proper DDT Extreme Title bout.
Rayne Leverkusen is starting to admit she is feeling nervous for her match against Saki Akai next week because she hasn’t beaten her yet in any of their tag matches. She is hoping to give Akai a heavy metal fight and dispel the notion she is only in DDT because she has a famous uncle.
