GANBARE☆PRO “DISASTER ARTIST 2024”, 15/07/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
286 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Takuya Wada & Yujiro Yamamoto defeated Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami when Wada submitted Nakamura with the Gm UP!! (9:50).
2. SAKI, Yuko Sakurai & Yuki Mashiro defeated HARUKAZE, Yuna Manase & Banny Oikawa when SAKI pinned HARUKAZE with the Running Brainbuster (8:58).
3. Fire Festival – A Block: Yumehito Imanari (10) defeated Satsuki Nagao (10) with the Lou Thesz Press (11:19).
4. Moeka Haruhi Return Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI defeated Yusaku Ito & Moeka Haruhi when YuuRI pinned Haruhi with a German Suplex (12:09).
5. Ken Ohka, Keisuke Ishii & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Shigehiro Irie, Mizuki Watase & Rekka when Ohka pinned Watase with the Flame Spear (12:13).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) defeated Hong Kong International Police Man with the Momoiro Kick (15:59).
*V2 for Keisuke Ishii.

Today was a big show for Ganbare☆Pro because it drew the largest crowd they have ever had at Takashimadaira Kumin Center! The main event was advertised as Keisuke Ishii defending the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title against Hong Kong International Police Man. However when it was time for the match to happen Police Man was nowhere to be found. Instead Choun-Shiryu walked out as his replacement! Ishii was still able to beat him using the Momoiro Kick, his name for the Kneel Kick. After the match he thanked “Police Man” because it was the first singles match they ever had together. Takuya Wada then entered the ring and challenged Ishii for the championship. It will take place on 16th August. Wada and the other wrestlers from the 1970s group then joined together in the ring to close out the show.

Ken Ohka was able to beat one of the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Champions by pinning Mizuki Watase with the Flame Spear. Shigehiro Irie taunted Ohka after the match by raising his title belt in the air. At the end of the show Ohka sent a video call to Shuji Ishikawa on his phone. Ohka asked Ishikawa if they could team up and challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Titles on 16th August. Ishikawa agreed to the idea. Ohka originally wanted Isami Kodaka or Minoru Fujita to be his partner but Kodaka is unavailable and Fujita turned him down.

It was a special return to the ring for Moeka Haruhi. She has been away from wrestling for over a year in order to donate a kidney to her sister. For her comeback match Haruhi was teaming up with Yusaku Ito, a wrestler who has received a kidney transplant. She was disappointed to lose the match but thanked Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI for protecting GanPro during her hiatus. She also thanked everyone for supporting her during this period especially when there were times she felt at her weakest. Today is the beginning of her second chapter and it will start with her joining GanPro on a full time basis! She promised the fans they next time they see her she will win her match.

Lately Yumehito Imanari has been over in ZERO1 competing in the Fire Festival tournament. As part of their relationship with GanPro, Imanari’s final block match against Satsuki Nagao was allowed to take place on this show. Imanari was able to win, ending his tournament run with two victories out of five matches and 10 points in total. Since he is the first wrestler in his block to complete all his matches and many are currently tied on 10 points he is unlikely to advance to the final. He compared fighting Nagao to fighting against Masato Tanaka and Shinjiro Otani.

BASARA “BASARA 252 ~TAKAGARI 26~” Results

July 15, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 252 ~TAKAGARI 26~”, 15/07/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Isami Kodaka & Lil’ Kraken defeated Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Kodaka pinned Kazato with the Ikki Tousen (11:30).
2. SAGAT & Judomaster Vs Banana Senga & Karate Master ended in a Double Countout (8:36).
3. FUMA defeated Gaia Hox with an Arm Bar (11:49).
4. KUBITO, Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Ryota Nakatsu, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when KUBITO submitted Nakatsu with the Crossover Face Lock (13:26).
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the Modified Samson Clutch (15:59).
*V5 for Minoru Fujita.

A Samson Clutch from out of nowhere resulted in Minoru Fujita retaining the Union MAX Title against Takumi Tsukamoto. Afterwards Tsukamoto wanted to speak on the microphone but didn’t have much to say so Yasu Urano took it from him. Urano told Fujita they have known each other for so long. Who is the next challenger going to be? It’s Urano! The fans called for the match to happen right away but Urano noticed the referees were already preparing to go home. Isami Kodaka stepped in and said the title match should happen somewhere important so it will take place at Korakuen Hall on 4th August! Fujita said ever since he won the title he hasn’t felt like he is the leader of BASARA. He does not know what he needs to do to satisfy that feeling but he will not give up on himself for as long as he lives.

There was a reason why KUBITO used the Crossface Lock to win his match. He wants to invite his classmate Daisuke Sasaki over to BASARA for its next Korakuen show. KUBITO has an idea for the two of them to team up and challenge Astronauts for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. He has not asked BASARA for permission to do this so we will have to wait and see if it will happen.

FUMA and Gaia Hox praised each other and shook hands after their match.

The growing rivalry between Judomaster and Karate Master is now dragging SAGAT and Banana Senga into the mix. Senga has 9 years of karate experience so he fits in fine. SAGAT though knows neither martial art. Instead he is a Taekwondo guy. The match turned into an brawl out of the ring where some wrestlers also acted like cats as well as martial artists. It lasted long enough for everyone to get counted out.

DDT “ROAD TO PETER PAN 2024 TOUR IN NIIGATA”, 14/07/2024
Niigata Higashi Ward Plaza Hall
284 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Yuni, Keigo Nakamura & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, Ilusion & Kazuma Sumi when To-y pinned Ilusion with the Kojima Impact (10:08).
2. Special 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki defeated Akito and Takeshi Masada when Sasaki submitted Masada with the Crossface Lock (9:11).
3. Jun Akiyama & Yukio Naya defeated Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku when Naya pinned Koroku with The World’s Best Back Drop (10:16).
4. Special Single Match: HARASHIMA defeated KANON with the Somato (13:17).
5. Sanshiro Takagi Indefinite Rest Road ~ Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Super Sasadango Machine Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata ended in a No Contest (12:09).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING?: MAO & Tetsuya Endo defeated Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata when MAO pinned Ueno with the Iai Kick (20:46).

In the final prelim match before Sumo Hall next week, MAO at last won against The 37KAMIINA and scored the pinfall on Yuki Ueno. He has spent the last few weeks teaming with different units and his success came from being on BURNING’s side. All he cares about is he has now proven he can beat Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title. His partner today Tetsuya Endo could tell MAO wasn’t comfortable teaming with him but they can now all move on to Sumo Hall.

So much happened during Match #5. Kazuki Hirata unmasked Super Sasadango Machine. Sasadango got his mask back and poured a bottle of ketchup over Hirata’s head. He then pulled out a fork and pressed it against Hirata’s forehead to make it look like he was being violently attacked. Danshoku Dieno then announced he was going independent from DDT in order to create a brand new wrestling company called Marigo-Round. The decision made Sanshiro Takagi so angry at the thought of his wrestlers being poached that he fired Dieno on the spot. Sasadango pulled out a barbed wire bat that was supposedly rigged with explosives. He accidentally hit Takagi with it, causing the vice president to “explode”. Takagi fired Sasadango and Hirata in response. Then a bunch of wrestlers from the local Niigata Pro Wrestling promotion invaded the building and attacked everyone at ringside. They admitted it was because Sasadango asked them to do it. The match to be called off and everyone settled down afterwards, taking back all of the rash decisions they made.

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles are a complete set again. HARASHIMA defeated KANON and Smile Squash then fought off DAMNATION T.A to reclaim the third belt that was stolen from them.

Yuki Iino was made aware of Go Shiozaki winning the ZERO1 World Heavyweight Title at yesterday’s NOAH show. That news does not intimidate him and he is ready to defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against Shiozaki.

5. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku defeated HARASHIMA, Yukio Naya & Ilusion when Endo pinned Ilusion with the Burning Star Press (15:10).
6. Iwate Specialty Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata defeated MAO & Keigo Nakamura when Ueno pinned Nakamura with the BME (25:06).

Today DDT was in Keigo Nakamura’s home of Iwate so he had a big day ahead of him. First he was the only wrestler to beat Sanshiro Takagi in the 5-Man Gauntlet match. Then in the main event he teamed with MAO to take on The 37KAMIINA. However he dropped the fall to Yuki Ueno, continuing the unit’s winning streak against MAO. Nakamura told his fans he is disappointed to lose to Ueno & Shunma Katsumata in front of them but promised to one day come back to Iwate with a championship.

Takagi had promised to give a pay rise to whoever could beat him in the Gauntlet Match. Nakamura did so he is getting one. To-y and Takeshi Masada were able to fight Takagi to two minute long draws so he praised them for doing well. Kazuma Sumi and Yuni however are getting pay cuts because they lost their two minute matches to Takagi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “JUST BEFORE TJPW SSP24” Results

July 13, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “JUST BEFORE TJPW SSP24”, 13/07/2024
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
194 Fans

1. Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase with the Bird Cage (5:59).
2. HIMAWARI defeated Kira Summer with a Half Crab Hold (6:56).
3. Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Wakana Uehara & Toga when Kamifuku pinned Uehara with the Famouser (12:06).
4. Suzume, Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami when Endo pinned Suzuki with the Ju no Okite (12:56).
5. Rika Tatsumi, Shoko Nakajima, Mizuki & Runa Okubo defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Tatsumi submitted Harajuku with the White Dragon Sleeper (16:07).

In one week’s time Miu Watanabe and Rika Tatsumi will be fighting each other over the Princess Of Princess Title so today was their final prelim match. Tatsumi suprised Watanabe with a Hip Attack right when the bell rang to start the match. She continued using Hip Attacks against Watanabe both inside and out of the ring. Watanabe made a comeback late in the match but again the Hip Attack was used to stop her. Tatsumi then won the match by putting Pom Harajuku in the White Dragon Sleeper.

Tatsumi told Watanabe after the match that what happened is not enough and they should do more warm up matches so she shouldn’t be running away. Watanabe said she is not running away and she will not let Tatsumi mess with her anymore. They will meet again at Korakuen Hall. Backstage Watanabe said she was under the mercy of Daydream in the build up to the match but now she is motivated to surpass Tatsumi. Meanwhile Yuki Aino is getting the Love Triangle to regroup for their next match together at Korakuen. She is looking forward to being in the ring with Yuna Manase again.

Shoko Nakajima said she was happy to wrestle against Raku today because Raku often teams with Aja Kong. So in a way the main event was Nakajima’s warm up for her upcoming singles match against Kong. Mizuki said she can feel Tatsumi’s momentum and it makes her want to see Tatsumi become the champion again. Runa Okubo believes she has grown enough that she can win the 6-Woman Tag match against her classmates at Korakuen.

Today is Mahiro Kiryu’s birthday but sadly her team lost their match. However everyone involved all sang happy birthday to her… only for the other team to attack her afterwards.

At a recent DDT show Maki Itoh told Sanshiro Takagi she was going to inherit the Stunner from him. She figured it would be a useful weapon for her when she goes back to America. She used the move today on Toga as a counter to the Rock Bottom. Then when Wakana Uehara put Yuki Kamifuku in the Banana Pillow, Itoh broke up the submission hold by Headbutting Uehara from behind. Itoh & Kamifuku dropped Uehara with an Elevated DDT double team and Kamifuku used the Famouser to win the match.

The injured trio of Nao Kakuta, Hyper Misao and Haruna Neko held a short talk segment in the middle of the show. Misao forgot her hero mask and had to use a temporary replacement to keep her identity hidden from the audience. She also convinced the others to take part in a “Sweet And Sour” rule during the talk. The rule was if anyone spoke in English they would have to drink a glass of sour lemon juice. Her plan backfired because she broke the rule three times. Kakuta only broke it once while Neko was clean the entire time. Misao challenged Kakuta to an all or nothing game of Rock, Paper, Scissors but she lost that too. However Kakuta agreed to take a drink with Misao to end the segment.

However she will still be attending the show along with Hyper Misao and Haruna Neko for a talk segment between the three of them. Moka Miyamoto is feeling unwell and cannot wrestle tomorrow. Miyu Yamashita was already announced to be wrestling in England this weekend.

DDT “KEIGO NAKAMURA HOMETOWN TRIUMPH! ROAD TO PETER PAN 2024 TOUR IN IWATE”, 13/07/2024

6. Iwate Specialty Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata Vs MAO & Keigo Nakamura

The DDT card also has a few changes but that’s because so many of the young wrestlers want to fight Sanshiro Takagi before his break. Takagi came up with an idea to face them all in a gauntlet of two minute singles matches one after the other. If any of them can beat him in two minutes he promises to increase their pay as a reward! The wrestlers lining up to face him are Takeshi Masada, Yuni, Keigo Nakamura, To-y & Kazuma Sumi.

6. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING?: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata Vs MAO & Tetsuya Endo

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles are still missing one of the belts after Smile Squash’s attempt to rescue them was only partially successful. They have two of the belts back but KANON still has possession of the third one. Good thing HARASHIMA has a match with him already scheduled so he can try and get it back by force.

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN HANDMADE IN JAPAN FES 2024”, 20/07/2024

Shinjuku FACE

1. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Match I: X Vs X
2. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Match II: X Vs X
3. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Match III: X Vs X

DDT last used the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere prize in 2022. After putting the concept on the shelf for a year it is back for 2024 and this time three prizes will be up for grabs. The participants and match stipulations have not been decided on yet. But it is guaranteed at least one of the prizes will be for a KO-D Openweight Title shot that can be cashed in at any time when the champion is in the venue.

BASARA “BASARA 254 ~ICHIMIDOUSHIN~”, 04/08/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Takeru Inoue Debut Match: Takeru Inoue Vs X
2. Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Yuki Ishikawa

This week it was announced that Big Japan wrestler Yuki Ishikawa will be retiring on 12th August. It was a decision he made after he suffered a shoulder injury back in April. He will pay a visit to BASARA the week before his retirement to face Isami Kodaka at Korakuen Hall. It will be one of if not the final singles match of Ishikawa’s career.

DDT/GCW “NEVER ENDING NOISY SUMMER”, 12/08/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

Jordan Oliver has pulled out of the GCW Japan tour due to a torn ACL in his left knee. Marcus Mathers will be replacing him for the tour which includes the DDT show.

BASARA “BASARA 254 ~HIEN~”, 13/08/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

Something BASARA tweeted out today is their plan to separate between the two kinds of “UTAGE” shows they will be producing from August onwards. The “HIEN” shows are now labelled as “Hard Mode” events. The tweet compares the term to “Bati Bati” and they later ruled out doing Hardcore Matches on these shows when a fan responding to them got the two mixed up. So it sounds like BASARA might be giving Battlarts style wrestling a go when using that name. The “SOUEN” shows are now labelled “Fudangi BASARA” and will be no different to the regular “UTAGE” shows they’ve been doing up until now.

DDT “ROAD TO PETER PAN 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU” Results

July 10, 2024

DDT “ROAD TO PETER PAN 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 10/07/2024
Shinjuku FACE
308 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Makoto Oishi & Akito defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Akito pinned Hirata with a Gedo Clutch (6:41).
2. Tetsuya Endo, Yukio Naya & Yuya Koroku defeated Jun Akiyama, Soma Takao & Keigo Nakamura when Endo submitted Nakamura with the Yurikamome (10:10).
3. Sanshiro Takagi Indefinite Rest Road ~ Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Yuni defeated Dasnhoku Dieno & Kazuma Sumi when Takagi pinned Sumi with an Avalanche-Style Brainbuster (5:36).
4. KANON 5th Anniversary Match ~ Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku defeated KANON with the Heavy Killer No. 2 (10:12).
5. Special 3 Way Match: HARASHIMA defeated Daisuke Sasaki and Masahiro Takanashi when HARASHIMA pinned Sasaki with the Somato (8:46).
6. Special Single Match: Go Shiozaki defeated Yuki Iino with the Gowan Lariat (15:02).
7. The 37KAMIINA Vs SCHADENFREUDE International?: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated MAO, Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda when To-y pinned Honda with a Frankensteiner (20:30).

So how did it go when MAO teamed up with SCHADENFREUDE International? It was almost flawless. His skills combined with the talents of Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda was almost enough to beat The 37KAMIINA if it wasn’t for one mistake and a little bit of luck at the end. An attack from MAO missed its target and hit Brookes by mistake. Honda tried to take control of things by hitting Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata with Bionic Elbows. He and MAO then teamed up on To-y but To-y captured Honda with a Frankensteiner out of nowhere to get the win. The result continues MAO’s losing streak against The 37KAMIINA since running away from the group. Ueno said the Sumo Hall show is just around the corner and he is really looking forward to defending the KO-D Openweight Title against MAO. They have more prelim matches coming up before then so he will see MAO again this weekend. Backstage MAO described today’s match as him running away from home and stopping by at his friend’s place. He wanted to join the original SCHADENFREUDE unit years ago so today was kind of like his dream coming true. He said no matter what happens, he will have a place to come back to.

If Yuki Iino or Tetsuya Endo want to beat Go Shiozaki today showed they aren’t ready to do it yet. Shiozaki fought Iino in a singles match with Atsushi Kotoge in his corner. Before the show began both teams signed the contract for their KO-D Tag Team Titles match at Sumo Hall. TEAM NOAH said they are going to show their strength and win the belts. Endo dismissed Kotoge and said he is only interested in getting the fall on Shiozaki. In the singles match Iino and Shiozaki fought around the room hitting each other with Chops, Lariats and Spears. Iino reached his limit first and Shiozaki pinned him with the Gowan Lariat. Then after the match Kotoge knocked down Endo with a Headbutt! He doesn’t like the smack talk Endo has been giving him so at Sumo Hall it will be Kotoge and not Shiozaki who will score the fall on Endo. The two teams got into another scuffle backstage.

HARASHIMA won the 3 Way Match, scoring the pinfall on Daisuke Sasaki with the Somato. Smile Squash then went and got their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title belts back. However during the fight KANON was able to steal back one of the belts from Yasu Urano so the champions do not have their complete set back yet. HARASHIMA promised his team will definitely have all three belts back in time for Sumo Hall so they can put together a great entrance. Backstage KANON warned reminded everyone he has a singles match against HARASHIMA coming up this Sunday. Sasaki complained about the “orange, alcoholic bastard” Masahiro Takanashi getting in the way a lot during the 3 Way.

KANON was given a match against his mentor TAKA Michinoku to celebrate the 5th Anniversary of his debut. The match was mostly Michinoku in control but KANON had some close calls. He countered the Michinoku Driver but was then rolled up into the Heavy Killer No. 2 cradle to lose by pinfall. Backstage Michinoku said he remembered teaming with KANON for his 4th Anniversary last year so was happy to have a singles match against him this time around. He is interested to see if KANON can move up to the top spot in DDT and challenge for the KO-D Title. He also promoted JTO’s 5th Anniversary show taking place next week. KANON promised to pay him back for today at that show.

Yesterday Danshoku Dieno successfully pulled off a plan to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Funky Kato but that only made him a target for his opponents and also his tag partner today. Kazuma Sumi quickly tried to pin Dieno for the title even though they were teaming together to fight Sanshiro Takagi & Yuni. It got so bad that Sumi stopped Dieno from giving Takagi the Danshoku Driver. Takagi then tricked Sumi into working together only for Takagi to give him a Superplex for the win. Takagi does not know why Dieno went through the trouble to become the Iron Man Champion but he ordered him not to lose the title until their match at Sumo Hall so he can win it in his last match! Yuni and Sumi then started arguing because Sumi has a singles match against Takagi coming up but Yuni does not. Then Keigo Nakamura and To-y entered the ring also demanding to fight Takagi in a match. Takagi decided he will fight all of them and also Takeshi Masada in a 5-Vs-1 match on 13th July. Each opponent will get to wrestle him for two minutes each. If any of them can beat Takagi in that time he will raise their pay!

Today was Nakamura’s birthday so he wanted to be the “main character” of his match. For that reason he held back from tagging in either Jun Akiyama or Soma Takao even when it was right to do so. He also asked Akiyama for a birthday gift and got one in the form of Akiyama giving Endo the Exploder Suplex so Nakamura could pin him. He then went for the Diving Headbutt but Endo dodged it and grabbed him in the Yurikamome submission hold. The birthday boy had no choice but to give up.

Toru Owashi wrestled in Dragongate during the week and was eager to show off his lucha skills in the opening match here. Kazuki Hirata also wanted to dance but Akito refused. He eventually got everyone including Makoto Oishi to dance together. Akito then ended up catching Hirata in a Gedo Clutch to get the win.

It was announced during the show that the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere concept will return on 2nd August. There will be three different matches with Right To Challenge prizes on the line on that day.

Out of all the other units MAO is going to team with against The 37KAMIINA this month, SCHADENFREUDE International on paper is the one he should get along with most.
