*D GENERATIONS fail in V2. DAMNATION T.A becomes the 11th KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Champions!
The D GENERATIONS CUP is just around the corner and Ilusion has snatched momentum from a bunch of his rivals thanks to DAMNATION T.A winning the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles! The defending champs going into the match were all part of the D GENERATIONS (with Daichi Sato substituting for Keigo Nakamura who is still on excursion in Mexico) but their unity was no match for DAMNATION T.A’s dirty fighting. Daisuke Sasaki blindsided Kazuma Sumi with a chairshot to the back, allowing Ilusion to finish Sumi off with the Swanton Bomb. Ilusion gathered together all five belts for himself while proclaiming Sasaki will win both the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title next year. Then Ilusion will win the D GENERATIONS CUP and challenge Sasaki for the Universal Title! He took that comment back when Sasaki glared at him and instead said that 2025 ends with DAMNATION T.A closing out the final DDT show of the year.
The sudden creation of a Yuki Ueno & Danshoku Dieno tag team had the pair coming up with big plans. They already want to challenge Strange Love Connection for the KO-D Tag Team Titles and then go global from there. But when they lost to SLC in a non-title match, Ueno & Dieno quickly decided to disband their team. Although they don’t rule out the idea of reuniting the team next year.
Soma Takao’s match with HARASHIMA today is his last for the time being. He is taking time off to deal with a knee injury and has no timeline for how long it will take for him to return. He admits to being worried over it but is confident he will return next year and get to wrestle in DDT again. HARASHIMA promised that Takao’s knee will heal properly because he’ll be training!
