With “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2024” in the rear view mirror today was the first look towards what directions everyone in DDT will be taking towards the next Sumo Hall show at the end of the year. The 37KAMIINA are now whole again thanks to MAO ending his runaway phase and rejoining the group. They won their match in the main event against a collection of DDT wrestlers. Among them was Makoto Oishi who this week announced his plans to leave DDT and go freelance in October. One of his requests was to wrestle against MAO & Shunma Katsumata again, which he did today. To-y got caught up in the moment and joined in with calling Oishi “Master” even though he has no connection to him. After the match Ueno welcomed MAO back to The 37KAMIINA and talked about how much he missed him. Backstage MAO and Katsumata both said they want to have a 3 Way Match with Oishi to be the NωA reunion part of Oishi’s farewell tour. Danshoku Dieno also approached Oishi wanting the two of them to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami added salt to Yukio Naya’s wounds after their match by telling him he hasn’t been working out enough. This provoked Naya into attacking him but DAMNATION T.A all ganged up on Naya with a chair and left him in a beaten pile. Kawakami’s advice is Naya should either gain 5-10kg or lose weight. He also keeps calling DAMNATION T.A “FIRE DAMNATION” but Daisuke Sasaki has to remind him that’s not what the unit is called. Naya’s response was to challenge Kawakami to a singles match. That will happen in Nagoya on 8th September.

The next challenger for Ueno and the KO-D Openweight Title is showing off how dangerous an opponent he is going to be. Shinya Aoki outgrappled Akito before using a Piledriver on him to get the win. His warning to Ueno is loud and clear. Aoki can kill him as both a fighter and as a wrestler! Ueno watched his speech from the ring entrance.

More challengers are on the way for BURNING. As mentioned above, Dieno & Oishi could be on the hunt for a future shot at the KO-D Tag Titles. But first BURNING wants to defend the belts against SCHADENFREUDE International. After Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku won their tag match, Endo made a request for their match against Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada in Osaka on 10th August to have the titles on the line.

Backstage Ilusion asked Antonio Honda if he could join SCHADENFREUDE International. Honda could not make the decision by himself because Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi are both wrestling in Thailand currently.

A ref bump happened in the opener so Kazuki Hirata poured ketchup over his head and made sure Yuni was holding a chair when the Yukinori Matsui recovered. Matsui thought Yuni violently attacked Hirata so he disqualified him. Matsui scolded Yuni and said he doesn’t remember raising him like this!
