June 18, 2023
DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2023 TOUR IN SAPPORO DAY 2”, 18/06/2023
Sapporo ii-one Stadium
304 Fans
1. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Hideki Okatani & Kazuma Sumi when Paul pinned Sumi with a Running Body Press (9:33).
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Yukio Sakaguchi ended in a No Contest (7:24).
3. Akito & Sanae Takebayashi defeated Kazuki Hirata & Saki Akai when Akito submitted Hirata with an Ankle Lock (10:20).
4. Special Single Match: Andreza Giant Panda defeated Pokotan with the Andreza Press (6:04).
5. Sapporo Specialty Special Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Tomoya defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Hino submitted Ishida with the King Kong Sleeper (13:30).
6. Jun Akiyama & Noriyuki Yoshida defeated HARASHIMA & Takeshi Masada when Akiyama pinned Masada with the Exploder Suplex (12:13).
7. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toy Kojima defeated Tetsuya Endo, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the WR (18:39).
Yuki Ueno & Toy Kojima successfully pulled off the My MADMAX on the way to winning today’s main event. The move itself did not score the win though. Ueno picked up Yuya Koroku afterwards to pin him with the WR. He then promoted the 25th June Korakuen Hall show to the Sapporo crowd where he, Kojima & MAO will all be fighting to win championships. Backstage Kojima said he is confident he & Ueno will win the KO-D Tag Team Titles while MAO will win the DDT Extreme Title.
Noriyuki Yoshida talked to Jun Akiyama backstage after their match and told him he wants to join BURNING. Akiyama decided to let him in as part of BURNING’s Hokkaido branch. DDT will be back in Sapporo this October so we’ll likely see Yoshida on those shows teaming with BURNING again.
The growing bad blood between Pokotan and Andreza Giant Panda led to a violent finish to their match. An Uppercut from Andreza knocked Pokotan’s head off! Andreza followed up with a big Headbutt followed by the Andreza Press to finish off the mascot. Andreza held Pokotan’s decapitated head while placing one foot on top of the body for the pinfall.
When Akito put Kazuki Hirata in the Ankle Lock, Hirata quickly tapped out. Somehow he thinks the speed of his tapping shows how great shape he’s in for the Extreme Title match. Sanae Takebayashi said she was happy to wrestle in DDT for the first time and would like to appear on their shows more often if given the chance. Akito said he liked seeing Saki Akai wrestle more women in DDT and hopes she will wrestle many more matches until her retirement later in the year.
Sanshiro Takagi had good news for everyone today. Pheromones are going to break up because there is no way they can beat him & Yukio Sakaguchi! The two of them took Yuki Iino out of action during the match, leaving Danshoku Dieno to fight them by himself. Sakaguchi put Dieno in a Sleeper Hold and Takagi placed a microphone up to Dieno’s face to force him into saying Pheromones are breaking up. Iino returned for the rescue and then trapped Takagi to force him into saying DDT is breaking up! Sakaguchi stopped them by shoving a penlight up Iino’s backside. Big mistake. Iino pulled it out and stuck the penlight into Sakaguchi’s mouth, causing him to faint. Iino then tried to strip naked causing the match to get called off.

7. Rika Tatsumi & Suzume defeated Yuki Aino & HIMAWARI when Tatsumi submitted HIMAWARI with the Dragon Sleeper (14:31).
A cautious Rika Tatsumi has become aware of Yuki Aino’s growing momentum. They fought in a tag match, the first preview of their upcoming International Princess Title bout. Aino fought off Suzume to save HIMAWARI from the Dragon Sleeper. But Tatsumi got rid of her by using the Twist Of Fate then put HIMAWARI Back in the Dragon Sleeper to win. Tatsumi said she can feel Aino’s momentum and knows how much she wants to win the title from her. Tatsumi can’t give it to her and she is determined to win 100% of their previews matches against each other on the road to Ota Ward Gymnasium.

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2023 TOUR IN SAPPORO DAY 1”, 17/06/2023
Sapporo ii-one Stadium
210 Fans
1. Hideki Okatani defeated Yuki Ishida with the Double Arm Suplex (8:46).
2. 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno defeated Yusuke Okada, Kazuma Sumi & Rukiya when Iino submitted Rukiya after the Boys Be Ambitious (10:49).
3. Special Tag Match: Andreza Giant Panda & Saki Akai defeated Akito & Kazuki Hirata by TKO after Akito knocked out Akito with an Accidental Elbow Strike (0:19).
3a. Rematch: Andreza Giant Panda & Saki Akai defeated Akito & Kazuki Hirata when Akai pinned Hirata with the Quetzalcoatl (9:59).
4. Sapporo Specialty Special 8-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama, Yuya Koroku & Noriyuki Yoshida defeated Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA, Tomoya & Makoto Oishi when Endo pinned Oishi with the Burning Star Press (14:35).
5. DAMNATION T.A Vs The 37KAMIINA!: MAO & Toy Kojima defeated Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul when Kojima pinned Paul with a School Boy (14:30).
6. Special Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Takeshi Masada when Hino pinned Masada with the Fuckin’ BOMB (14:33).
It’s possible that Yuji Hino needed a day like today. All he had to do was focus on his match and not worry about Chris Brookes in any way, shape or form. The result of this was Hino scoring the pin and feeling very happy with how hot the atmosphere was in the building. He joked with Makoto Oishi that Sapporo is where it snows in the summer so it couldn’t possibly be this hot today. But it is! Yukio Sakaguchi added to the tension by gesturing towards Kazusada Higuchi and his KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title belt after the match. He simply warned him that Eruption will take the titles from Harimao at Sumo Hall.
The latest drama between Toy Kojima and DAMNATION T.A continued the chair based beatings on The 37KAMIINA wrestler. However today he got a win over his enemies thanks to some help from MAO. Things went pear shaped when MAO missed the Whirlwind Kick and hit the referee Tomomitsu Matsunaga by accident. Sasaki hit Kojima with a chair until Kojima was able to defend himself and block the attack. Kojima then rolled over MJ Paul with a School Boy to get the 3 count from a recovered Matsunaga. DAMNATION T.A attacked Kojima again after the match but when they left, a defiant Kojima told the fans he and Yuki Ueno will win the vacant KO-D Tag Team Titles at Korakuen Hall! However Sasaki backstage called today’s result a miracle. One that will never happen again.
Obviously whenever Andreza Giant Panda appears it is very noticeable. It was even more so here when fans could see Andreza’s head sticking out behind the entrance curtain before he even made his entrance. He ended up getting stuck and his match began without him. Kazuki Hirata grabbed Saki Akai and Akito threw an Elbow Strike at her. She ducked and Hirata accidentally knocked out Hirata with his elbow. Akai was angry over how the match went and purposely revived Hirata to restart it, entrances and all. Andreza was still stuck behind the stage by the way. The match restarted and Akai made sure it wouldn’t suddenly end with Hirata getting knocked out again. Akito & Hirata got Andreza to chase them around ringside but it was to lure him into a trap. With the help of Underwear Sanshiro (a Sanshiro Takagi impersonator wearing underwear instead of wrestling trunks), Andreza was trapped inside two dollies leaving Akai having to fight Akito & Hirata by herself. Akai was able to fight off her opponents, free Andreza and go on to win the match as a team.
After the match Pokotan suddenly appeared and grabbed the microphone. He said he and Chiitan are now called the Chi-Poko Alliance and they will beat Andreza & Super Sasadango Machine to a pulp at Sumo Hall on 23rd July! But first Pokotan will face Andreza in a singles match tomorrow. He promised a fair fight and shook Andreza’s paw. Pokotan then gave him a Low Blow and a Stunner but Andreza shook it off and Headbutted Pokotan in retaliation!
DDT announced their next doubleshot at Sapporo ii-one Stadium will be on 14th and 15th October.

GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO MILON’S SECRET CASTLE ’23”, 17/06/2023
Tokyo GEN Sports Palace
93 Fans
1. Ancham defeated Riara with the I Still Don’t Know The Name Of The Technique I Saw That Day (8:05).
2. Gatoh Move Offer Match: Makoto defeated Tokiko Kirihara with the Renkan no Kei (12:35).
3. Miyako Matsumoto & Alex Lee defeated Marika Kobashi & Echika Miyabi when Lee pinned Miyabi with the Vinco Plex (13:25).
4. GanJo Vs JUST TAP OUT! Special Tag Match: Sumika Yanagawa & Misa Kagura defeated YuuRI & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Kagura submitted Hasegawa with an Elevated Half Crab (11:24).
The main event of today’s Ganbare☆Joshi show was an emotional reunion for YuuRI. She is originally from JTO and her debut was on the same day as both of her opponents Sumika Yanagawa & Misa Kagura. She fought her best alongside Yoshiko Hasegawa but the GanJo team lost to the visitors. YuuRI did not like the result and refused to admit defeat. Kagura told YuuRI they all started out together but YuuRI was the one who left. Kagura & Yanagawa however stuck together and formed the tag team called 1111 referencing the date of their debuts (11th November). YuuRI said when she first heard the name she thought she could be a part of it too. Ever since then she’s been jealous of Yanagawa & Kagura’s success. She once fought Yanagawa in a singles match that went to a time limit draw but never faced Kagura one on one. It’s a match she always wanted to do so she asked her to let it happen at the next GanJo show on 16th July. Kagura accepted because she wants to go back to JTO as somebody who has beaten YuuRI.
Miyako Matsumoto has been an unwelcome surprise everytime she’s shown up at GanJo but today she had something in store that everyone would appreciate. She is in charge of a unit called Miyako Gundan and it contains about 500,000 members around the world. The unit recently added a new member and Matsumoto wants to introduce her to GanJo. It’s Banny Oikawa! The former Ice Ribbon wrestler has been on a break since last year and spent her time wondering where should she return to. Something she wants to do is mixed gender wrestling and she became jealous of the GanJo roster for getting to partake in those kind of matches. She talked to several wrestlers about it, Matsumoto included. Matsumoto told Oikawa to leave it to her and here she is showing up to today’s GanJo show. Michiyoshi Mishima was happy to see Oikawa again but had to tell her that GanJo stopped doing intergender wrestling since their restart. He suggested that Oikawa use GanJo as her return to wrestling first and then he can convince Ken Ohka to book her for mixed tag matches in Ganbare☆Pro. Oikawa liked the idea and agreed to wrestle her first match back on 16th July.
The Gatoh Move match got a bit out of control when the seconds at ringside got involved. Tokiko Kirihara had Sayaka Obihiro in her corner while Makoto as always had her manager Matsuzawa-san accompanying her. Both of the seconds got into the ring and caused some antics while Makoto and Kirihara were fighting each other.

1. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno defeated Akito & Kazuma Sumi when Iino submitted Sumi after the Sexy Shampoo (11:30).
2. SILVER QUEEN Infomercial Match: MAO & Yoshihiko defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata when Yoshihiko pinned Hirata with the Reincarnation (11:39).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Sanshiro Takagi defeated Yoshihiko (c) with a School Boy (7:42 pm).
*Sanshiro Takagi becomes the 1,572nd champion.
3. HARASHIMA & Hideki Okatani defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuya Koroku when HARASHIMA pinned Koroku with the Somato (12:38).
4. Hakodate Specialty Special Single Match: Yuki Ishida defeated Akinori Ariji with the Flame Palm (6:57).
5. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Toy Kojima & Rukiya when Sasaki submitted Rukiya with the Crossface Lock (8:16).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuji Hino, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Sakaguchi when Okada pinned Oishi with the Sudden Death (16:34).
One of the company trucks containing the ring canvas, aprons and turnbuckle pads never made it to the arena so the first half of the show took place on a partially constructed ring. The ring itself was stable but with no canvas that meant everyone was fighting on top of the bare wooden boards. DDT got in touch with one of Hokkaido’s local wrestling promotions Donan Pro Wrestling (ran by former Dragon Gate wrestler Katsuo) to rent out the missing equipment they needed. Donan Ring’s crew were able to arrive after Match #3 and intermission was spent completing construction of the ring.
DAMNATION T.A again attacked Toy Kojima with chairs during their match. Kojima had the chance to fight fire with fire when he grabbed hold of a chair but he chose to fight fairly instead. That didn’t work and MJ Paul attacked him with more chairs outside the ring while Daisuke Sasaki submitted Rukiya with the Crossface Lock.
Just when it looked like Yoshihiko had all the momentum going into the 3 Way DDT Extreme Title match, Sanshiro Takagi takes the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title away from it! Yoshihiko won a tag match by pinning Kazuki Hirata and then had to fight off MAO afterwards. Takagi saw an opening and pinned Yoshihiko with a School Boy to win the title. He said backstage that the value of the title stalled with Yoshihiko as champion. So Takagi put it upon himself to make it shine. He is ready to defend it against anyone (or anything) at anytime!

I don’t normally write up news updates while shows are going on but today is an unusual exception. One of DDT’s ring trucks did not arrive in time for the show so as of writing the ring is bare, missing all of its canvas mats, corner pads and ring aprons. They decided to go on with the show wrestling on the exposed wood panels but DDT has gotten in contact with a nearby wrestling promotion to rent out the remaining equipment they need. The match order was changed so now the comedy stuff will go on first (Pheromones will humiliate you but they’re not going to head drop you onto the canvas) and as soon as the rented equipment arrives the show will go to intermission and get the ring fully ready.

7. Miyu Yamashita & Shoko Nakajima Vs Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku
I’m going to spend a long time wondering about that Tokyo Joshi Pro update back from the end of March. They said at the time that Miyu Yamashita’s return from excursion could have been delayed if a big opportunity came her way. TJPW was right to put that out given how much they rely on ticket sales and cannot risk even slightly damaging their customer base’s trust over any kind of false advertising. It’s why you so often see Japanese promotions giving updates and offering apologies over even the most inconsequential setbacks that changes the show lineups while in other countries you can get out of luck and be stuck with “Card Subject To Change” as the only excuse. So there had to have been something discussed between Yamashita and another party over a big booking somewhere. That her return falls on the same weekend as AEW and New Japan holding the second Forbidden Door PPV sent a lot of people’s imaginations into a frenzy, myself included. Was it all a coincidence? Did TJPW put the original message out there just in case Yamashita got an offer from anybody, not just AEW, to extend her stay in America just that little bit longer? Or was there a deal somewhere that fell apart? I think it’s the former but that’s because it will drive me up the wall if it turns out to be the latter.

He started out being annoyed over Chris Brookes getting injured and now thanks to a heartfelt speech from Antonio Honda he feels sympathy for his next challenger. It’s probably a good thing he gets to deal with a different set of opponents tomorrow. Get his head back in check and focus on what’s in front of him.

It was supposed to be The Magical Sugar Rabbits Vs Miyu Yamashita & Hyan. First, Hyan had to pull out of the show because of a scheduling conflict so she is replaced with Vert Vixen. Then news of Sakazaki’s injury came out so Mizuki is now teaming with Emi Sakura. Those two teaming together again is newsworthy by itself.
This weekend’s show has a couple of firsts. It is the first main event match for HIMAWARI. It’s the first time Hyper Misao & Yoshiko Hasegawa are teaming together. It is also Runa Okubo’s first singles match of her career.

7. DDT Extreme Title – Survival 3 Way Match: MAO Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Yoshihiko
A third party wants to fight MAO and Kazuki Hirata over the vacant DDT Extreme Title! A few days ago Yoshihiko pinned both of them at the same time and believes it now qualifies to be part of the title match. A 3 Way Match was suggested and MAO liked the idea because he wants to fight Yoshihiko more often. They all agreed to make it under elimination rules because everybody expects Hirata will get immediately pinned. Since the match is headlining the show it would be a waste to set up a 3 Way only for it to end so quickly. All three wrestlers are happy with the decision. Yoshihiko gets to fight for a championship, MAO gets to fight Yoshihiko again and Hirata gets to be in the main event even if might only for a few seconds!
The 37KAMIINA are getting prepared for the vacant KO-D Tag Team Titles match. When Shunma Katsumata was having his surgery, he came up with a new tag team finishing move for Yuki Ueno & Toy Kojima to use. Every duo combination in The 37KAMIINA so far has their own version of the MADMAX finisher. This one is called the My MADMAX because Katsumata thought of it by himself. They all held a training session together along with Rukiya being used as the crash test dummy. After a few practice tries, the My MADMAX was discovered to be a Spike Air Raid Crash. They all believe the move is easier to use on Daisuke Sasaki. However if they can pull it off on MJ Paul then it will be even more damaging to an opponent his size.
Honda already said his piece defending Brookes against Hino. Now he has to step in the ring and meet Hino face to face with the help of Higuchi & Masahiro Takanashi. They need the help because Hino & Makoto Oishi have Jun Akiyama on their side!
The match order other than the main event and dark match has not been determined yet.

Katsumata came up with another idea to help Kojima grow. He’s making Kojima team with Atsushi Onita for a Hardcore Tag Match against Eruption! Katsumata would team with Kojima himself but while he is out injured, he thinks Onita is more than a suitable replacement to do something crazy.
