Normally whoever holds the DDT Extreme Title gets to decide on the stipulation match for their defences. However Super Sasadango Machine felt he had enough of an advantage going into today’s show because it was being held in his home city of Niigata. It wouldn’t impress his own people if he were to beat To-y using rules that tipped the match in his favour. So he gave To-y one day’s notice to come up with three stipulations for the fans to vote on. When the show began Sasadango admitted he liked all three of To-y’s ideas so he decideded to have a Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls match for the title.
The 1st Fall had Sasadango and To-y wrestle each other while their mouths were full of milk. Whoever spat out their milk first would lose the fall. Sasadango was able to drink the milk through his mask and he then removed the mask to reveal he had his face painted like Aja Kong! To-y couldn’t help but spit out his milk in surprise. The 2nd Fall was a Trash Can Death Match. You won when you put your opponent into a trach can. They started off using an aluminium bin that was too small so Kong used it as a weapon like Kong’s steel can. Sasadango then gave To-y the Lehmann Shock into a plastic box but it broke apart so it didn’t count. Sasadango found a big plastic pin and wedged it between the ropes but To-y sent him falling into it with a Hurricanrana to win the fall. The 3rd Fall was a 100 Chop Death Match. The match would continue until total amount of 100 chops to the back happened. Whoever did the 100th chop would win and get the Extreme Title. When they reached up to 99 chops Sasadango laid down on his back to defend himself. To-y tricked him into rolling over by pretending to do a Diving Body Attack only to stop and throw the 100th chop to become the new Extreme Champion! He shouted out that he is going so crazy he will run all the way home from Niigata. He told fans to keep watching his crazy Extreme Title matches and when he comes back to Niigata, the show will be sold out again!
Kazusada Higuchi made Antonio Honda give up to the Claw as a warning to Chris Brookes. The two had a staredown after the match but neither said anything. Instead Yuki Ishida spoke on Higuchi’s behalf backstage. He said Higuchi is definitely going to win the KO-D Openweight Title. Brookes better get his act together because the real match happens at Korakuen Hall.
After Match #4 Yuki Ueno got on the microphone and spoke about his support for the D GENERATIONS. He told Yuya Koroku that before he knows it there will be a day when he is no longer a young person and he will wonder what can he do in the future. The good thing is according to Ueno, Koroku has the power to do what he wants and enjoy it as he likes. In pro wrestling you will have friends, teams and opponents but a big aspect is having to work hard by yourself.
Parts of the undercard were changed when Soma Takao fell ill and was unable to wrestle on the show.
