7. Shunma Katsumata 10th Anniversary Match ~ Are You Happy? Death Match: MAO defeated Shunma Katsumata when Katsumata was Not Happy after doing the Sauna Trance Splash from the Giga Ladder (19:44).
The rules of the Are You Happy? Death Match involved Yukinori Matsui asking MAO or Shunma Katsumata “Are you happy?” whenever they had taken a dangerous move. If a wrestler could no longer answer by saying “Happy!” then they would lose the match. The match had Lego, chairs, plastic boxes and a Giga Ladder used as a weapon. Katumsata stacked boxes filled with Lego on top of MAO, climbed the Giga Ladder and then hit the Sauna Trance Splash onto MAO. The crash left both of them in pain and MAO said he was “Happy!” to continue. Katsumata though couldn’t do anything but scream in pain. Matsui came to the conclusion that Katsumata wasn’t happy anymore and rewarded the victory to MAO. While Katsumata wanted a match against MAO to celebrate his 10th anniversary of his debut, he is ready to put the focus back on their ShunMao tag team. He thinks the strength of The 37KAMIINA is that they all stand together wanting to make DDT more exciting. They’ve become close friends over time for that reason.
Yuki Ueno used his version of the Shining Wizard he adopted from HUB to beat Keigo Nakamura. He thinks the most important thing a pro wrestler should have is confidence and he praises Nakamura for keeping his head held high through the difficult times. If Nakamura works hard then Ueno believes he will one day become the KO-D Openweight Champion. Nakamura said it was frustrating to lose today’s match but he will use that frustration as motivation to become the center of DDT!
The teams in Match #1 were switched around due to the requests of everyone involved.
