What is going on with Takeshi Masada? He has a KO-D Tag Team Titles shot coming up but he’s dropping falls left, right and centre recently. Today’s show was in Akito’s homeplace of Nagoya but even he is calling out Masada over not stepping up for matches he cannot afford to lose. He thinks there is something missing with Masada and he should think even more about pro wrestling. Since Sanshiro Takagi is now resting, Akito is taking it upon himself to take charge of DDT both in the ring and behind the scenes. He hopes what he said today will inspire Masada. His words have at least gotten Masada angry. He said Akito does not know how he feels about wanting to win the KO-D Tag Titles on the 2nd anniversary of his debut.

The feud between Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami and Yukio Naya is heating up even more with both wrestlers telling each other what they are going to do next after their singles match on 8th September. Kawakami says he is going to move on and challenge for the KO-D Openweight Title while Naya claims he will go to GLEAT and take the G-REX Title before Kawakami ever can!

Both Jun Akiyama & Danshoku Dieno agreed that Makoto Oishi will remain a member of D.O.A after he leaves DDT in October. Oishi showed his appreciation by trying to roll up Dieno for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title after their match. Dieno kicked out and escaped, leaving Oishi empty handed.

7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Miu Watanabe defeated Arisu Endo with the Foot Stomp (14:38).

The 11th annual Tokyo Princess Cup began with a mixture of matches from Round 1 and Round 2 due to the number of entrants creating an uneven tournament bracket to work off of. The big match of the opening round was Miu Watanabe against Arisu Endo in a battle of champions. Endo’s moves couldn’t land a decisive blow and it came down to Watanabe using the Tear Drop to win. She pointed out she has had a singles match against Endo every year that Endo has been around for so it was fate for them to have it here. She’ll be facing Zara Zacker in Round 2 and is keeping a strong attitude so she can accomplish the ultimate grand slam in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Arisu thought this would be the year she would finally beat Watanabe but in the end she lost. She thinks she was still able to show how much she has improved since last year. She wants to be frustrated but she doesn’t have time to feel depressed over it.

Over in Round 2 Mizuki is among the early wrestlers to already qualify for the Quarter Finals thanks to her win against Moka Miyamoto. The Cutie Special followed by the Diving Foot Stomp was the difference maker. Mizuki always wants to be number one but she also has more desires beyond that. She was excited to discover just how much Miyamoto has grown and it makes her want to fight even more so she can become number one again. Miyamoto finds herself down at the bottom again. She just recently lost a Princess Tag Team Titles match and now got eliminated early in the Princess Cup. Her only solution is to keep working harder and get stronger to win more.

Back in Round 1 Yuki Arai took care of Kaya Toribami in a match between wrestlers who debuted only a month away from each other. Arai dodged the 2nd Rope Rolling Senton and gave Toribami the Full Nelson Buster followed by the Finally for the three count. Arai always wanted to have a singles match with Toribami and could feel her determination to win. Arai will now face Wakana Uehara in Round 2. They teamed together in this year’s Max Heart Tournament but Arai will not let anyone stop her from reaching the top four again for a second year in a row. Toribami said she did not feel any panic today and was able to do her best. She wonders if the difference comes from Arai being a champion?

The other girl to start from Round 2 and advance straight on to the Quarter Finals is Suzume. She defeated Shino Suzuki to take this path. They’ve wrestled each other countless times already so Suzume knows just how persistent Suzuki can be. She thinks it even gave her a passionate boost today as she waits to find out who she will face in the Quarter Final. Suzuki said she fought with everything she had but still lost. She does not know if she’s grown at all since her first singles match which was also against Suzume.

A fresh red hair dye job complimented Yuki Aino’s victory over Runa Okubo in Round 1. The rookie tried beating Aino with a Crab Hold and Elbow Strikes but Aino took her down with a Bulldog Headlock before pinning her with the Venus DDT. Aino is pleased to finally advance past the opening round after getting knocked out of it for the past two years. now moves on to fight Shoko Nakajima in Round 2. It is a match that both women are looking forward to. Okubo admitted she lost the match in both strength and momentum. All she’s feeling now is frustration.

Yuki Kamifuku was feeling unwell and could not be at the show today. Her Round 2 match against Pom Harajuku has been postponed until 3rd August. Harajuku was moved to Match #2 instead, turning the 3 Way Match into a tag match. She wanted to see the scheduled 3 Way Match anyway and encouraged the other participants to wrestle the match without her. However it was just a trick so Harajuku could get the jump on the other team.
