5. Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao Vs Poison KANNA & Poison Miura

Things are looking bleak for Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao after they both lost to Snake World Joshi wrestlers at the last show. Snake World Joshi also gained a member when Mitsuya Nagai was brainwashed by Poison Sawada JULIE.

Tokyo Joshi GM Koda Tetsuya is being put in Sukeban-gun’s corner because Sanshiro Takagi will be busy working at a separate DDT show that day.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2016 ~DDT 19th ANNIVERSARY~”, 21/03/2016
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. DNA Offer Match: X Vs X

10. KO-D Openweight Title – Good Com Asset Presents: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs HARASHIMA or Shigehiro Irie

Kota Ibushi’s return sees him added to the Falls Count Anywhere Match. This is the first time Ibushi will do such a match inside Sumo Hall. God only knows what ideas he’ll have in that environment.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “POKEBERU GA NARANAKUTE 2016”, 29/03/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Eating Log 4.25 Class Of Love Calls: Yumehito Imanari Vs Bambi
2. World’s Strongest Phantom Rumble ~Bracken Of The Living Dead~: J-Soul Pandita III IV Vs Dr. Kirico Vs Potato Head Sera Vs Hong Kong International Police Man Vs Hong Kong Domestic Police Man Vs Hong Kong International Women’s Police Man Vs Atsushi Maruyama Vs Choun-Shiryu
3. Ganpuro Vs Tomodachi-gun: Ken Ohka, Shota & Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Minoru Fujita, Madoka & Yukihiro Abe

If the Ganpuro team win the main event they get to take back Yukihiro Abe from Tomodachi-gun and rehabilitate him back to normal. Abe has been listening only to Minoru Fujita ever since he joined his group and Fujita tells him he can become stronger if he beats Ken Ohka.

The Phantom Rumble sounds like a nightmare in more ways than one.

Ibushi Announces Return, Creates Ibushi Wrestling Institute

February 22, 2016

ibushi-returns-institute

A press conference was held inside DDT’s new Shinjuku office this morning and it was all about Kota Ibushi. He’s been away from the public eye ever since October when a suspected herniated cervical disc put him out of action. Barring a tweet here and there, things were quiet from his end until today. He was at the conference along with DDT President Sanshiro Takagi & GM Amon Tsurumi to make a few announcements. First Ibushi’s dual contract with DDT and New Japan Pro Wrestling has been cancelled. Ibushi’s injury turned out to be lumbar spondylolisthesis and he is on track to making a full recovery. He was given the OK by his doctor to return to pro wrestling but personally feels he has hit his physical limit. The schedule he had for the last two years working for two companies at the same time has taken its toll. He now thinks it is time for him to pursue a new kind of pro wrestling separate from either company. So he is now graduating from DDT and New Japan to launch the Ibushi Wrestling Institute. What that is exactly Ibushi hasn’t said but he will give us more details eventually. He is the only member of the Institute and he himself does not know if he will invite anyone else to join.

It looks like Ibushi will still wrestle for DDT and New Japan eventually but as a representative of Ibushi Wrestling Institute. NJPW President Naoki Sugibayashi released a statement saying he looks forward to working with Ibushi again in the future. Ibushi’s return match will take place at “JUDGEMENT 2016 ~DDT 19th ANNIVERSARY~” in Sumo Hall on 21st March. He and Gota Ihashi will be added to the Falls Count Anywhere Weapon Treasure Hunt Match turning it into a 3 Way Tag against Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai and KENSO & Michael Nakazawa. It will be the first time Ibushi will be in a Falls Count Anywhere Match at Sumo Hall. That and getting to wrestle both Takagi and Nakazawa again are why Ibushi was put into the match.

Takanashi Prepares For Singapore Title Match

February 19, 2016

takanashi-singapore

Although Masa Takanashi failed to win the KO-D Openweight Title in January he is not that far away from another shot at gold. He will be competing in Singapore Pro Wrestling on 11th March against Andruew Tang for the SPW South East Asian Championship. Takanashi previously defeated “The Statement” in Gatoh Move last month to earn the title shot. This time the rematch will be in Tang’s hometown. He is promoted at Singapore’s first pro wrestler and previously defended the SPW Title against another DDT wrestler, Michael Nakazawa. Takanashi hopes to win the title and become King of South East Asia. Then he’ll bring the championship over to DDT much like Daisuke Sasaki is currently doing with Chile’s MAX Lucha Libre Title.

The team of Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu are now called Cavalry.

What’s this? A line up with X and Shiori Asahi both on it? That means Asahi can’t be X! Times have changed.

Road To Judgement 2016

February 16, 2016

7. HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie

One last warm up match for HARASHIMA and Shigehiro Irie before they fight over the No. 1 Contendership.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BATTLE MISSION 2016 CODE.3”, 21/02/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. 3 Way Match: Azusa Takigawa Vs Yuu Vs Nodoka Onesan
2. Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima & Yuka Sakazaki Vs Nonoko, Ai Shimizu & Rika Tatsumi
3. Hyper Misao Vs Poison Miura (w/ Poison Sawada JULIE)
4. Saki Akamiya Vs Poison KANNA (w/ Poison Sawada JULIE)

Marika Kobashi will miss the show because she is busy studying for her junior high school exams.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “MACHINE GUN O BUPPANASE 2016”, 21/02/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Wrestle Counselling: Shinichiro Tominaga Vs GENTARO

3. Grudge Panda: J-Soul Pandita III IV Vs Dr. Kirico
4. Ganpuro Terrace House 3 Way Match -Public And Private Confusion-: Yumehito Imanari Vs Bambi Vs Manami Kanda
5. Ganpuro-gun Vs Tomodachi-gun ~Declaration Of War~: Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Osamu Namiguchi Vs Minoru Fujita, Madoka & Yukihiro Abe

So far Dr. Kirico has been either Atsushi Maruyama or Shuichiro Katsumura hidden under the mask. I’m not sure if J-Soul Pandita III IV is aware that it’s a different person everytime, it probably just sees the evil doctor that killed one of its kin two years ago.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2016”, 28/02/2016
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. King Of Dark: Mizuki Watase (c) & Kota Umeda Vs Hiroshi Fukuda & Guanchulo

6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Shunma Katsumata & Kouki Iwasaki
7. KO-D Openweight Title Next Challenger Final: HARASHIMA Vs Shigehiro Irie

The DNA team haven’t convinced T2Hide that they deserve their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title shot. Kazuki Hirata pinned Kouki Iwasaki with his Miracle Cradle in their non-title trios match. However the DNA team were able to beat Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi in a separate trios match the day before.

LiLiCo will be in attendance. She is still the current Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. I’m certain we’ll be introduced to her partners for Sumo Hall. Who could she get to face the Kawaii Connection? Should she fight fire with fire in this situation?

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2016 ~DDT 19th ANNIVERSARY~”, 21/03/2016
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. DNA Offer Match: X Vs X
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Battle Royal: Miyu Yamashita Vs Shoko Nakajima Vs Yuka Sakazaki Vs Nonoko Vs Rika Tatsumi Vs Hyper Misao Vs Azusa Takigawa Vs Yuu Vs Nodoka Onesan Vs Ai Shimizu Vs Hyper Misao Vs Hyper KANNA

7. Dramatic Dream Match: Danshoku Dino Vs Akebono
8. Dramatic Dream Match: Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Minoru Suzuki

10. KO-D Openweight Title – Good Com Asset Presents: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs HARASHIMA or Shigehiro Irie

The Right To Challenge Match is held in Sumo Hall for the first time. The combined Ladder and Royal Rumble rules is one of the highlights of the DDT calander. No word yet on how many prizes will be on offer but the winner of the Rumble section will get a guaranteed KO-D Openweight Title match. The other prizes are usually Money In The Bank style contracts.

Ken Ohka and The World’s Cutest Tag Team will all be wrestling on the show.

6. MAX LUCHA LIBRE Maximo Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Guanchulo

Guanchulo wants to bring the MAX LUCHA LIBRE Title to DNA if he wins it.

Mizuki Watase has been given the task to beat a DDT veteran to fully earn an escape from the King Of Dark Title scene. If Masa Takanashi loses it will cap off a big fall from grace after his failed KO-D Openweight Title shot.

Aichi Nagoya Naka Sports Center

1. 3 Way Match: Danshoku Dino Vs Kengo Takai Vs Kouki Iwasaki

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BATTLE MISSION 2016 CODE.3”, 21/02/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Saki Akamiya Vs Poison KANNA

Saki Akamiya got her first win over Snake World Joshi and it has left Poison Sawada JULIE rattled. An attempt to cure Poison KANNA from his snake magic failed. His retaliation is to send KANNA after Akamiya and prove that defeat was just a fluke.

BOYZ “BOYZ DOLL FESTIVAL SPECIAL ~WOMAN FESTIVAL 9~”, 01/03/2016
Shinjuku FACE

1. Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Makoto Oishi
2. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs Soma Takao Vs Akito

BOYZ and YaroZ are running their shows at the same time in different venues so BOYZ shouldn’t have to worry about any unwelcome visitors this time.

DDT “YAROZ PARTICIPATION”, 01/03/2016
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Ryuichi Sekine Vs Takayuki Ueki
2. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Yumehito Imanari
3. Boxing Tag Match: Gota Ihashi & Dai Suzuki Vs Kengo Mashimo & Zeus

Gota Ihashi has to have Homer Simpson Syndrome. There’s no other way he can survive these boxing matches.

The Bed Inn Girls will be at the show.

DDT “DNA 14”, 05/03/2016
Saitama Kasukabe Hall

1. Daiki Shimomura Debut Match: Daiki Shimomura Vs Kota Umeda
2. Tsunehiro Shimatani Debut Match: Tsunehiro Shimatani Vs Kouki Iwasaki
3. Kota Umeda Vs Kouki Iwasaki

Kota Umeda and Kouki Iwasaki will work double duty, wrestling the two new rookies before taking on each other in the main event.

BOYZ “BOYZ DOLL FESTIVAL SPECIAL ~WOMAN FESTIVAL 10~”, 06/03/2016
Osaka World Pavilion

1. Keisuke Ishii Vs Kota Umeda
2. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Masa Takanashi Vs Akito, Tetsuya Endo & Yukio Sakaguchi

This is the first BOYZ show held outside of Tokyo.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HOP! STEP! KITAZAWA, JUMP!!”, 13/03/2016
Kitazawa Town Hall

1. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Nonoko

There is no tougher challenge for Miyu Yamashita’s first defence. Nonoko is motivated to take Yamashita’s first title just like when she handed her her first defeat.

February’s Already Full

February 2, 2016

Congratulations goes out to KUDO for becoming a father for the first time! Not many details are public yet apart from a tweet he sent out earlier today. He says he now has a new commitment to grow both as a father and a professional wrestler.

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 8”, 07/02/2016
Saitama Kawaguchi City Industrial Science and Technology Center

7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Elimination Match: Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine & KENSO (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata

As the feud between Sanshiro Takagi and KENSO nears its end so too does the rivalry between T2Hide and #OhkaEmpire. If an Elimination Tag Match can determine which team is better then what is it they are truly fighting for? Oh right, the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles.

Daisuke Sasaki surprised everyone by bringing in Shuji Ishikawa to be his new tag partner. They begin their journey to Sumo Hall in Saitama.

DDT “IKAPPE YOKAPPE IN IBARAKI 2016”, 11/02/2016

3. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi
4. HARASHIMA, Akito & Yasu Urano Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao

A King Of Dark Title match is planned for the show. If any of the wrestlers in the announced card is the champion then their match is relegated to the pre-show. Yasu Urano I’m looking in your direction.

DDT “WRESTLING OKEHAZAMA 2016”, 14/02/2016
Aichi Nagoya Naka Sports Center

1. Konosuke Takeshita, Tetsuya Endo & Hiroshi Fukuda Vs Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Gota Ihashi
2. Daisuke Sasaki Vs Makoto Oishi
3. Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano
4. Isami Kodaka Vs Kota Umeda

Kota Umeda is the last person Isami Kodaka needs to beat to get a full sweep on all active members of Shuten-dōji. Unless you also count Saki Akai who is a part time member of the group.

DDT “DRAMATIC SWAN MAIDEN 2016”, 20/02/2016
Shizuoka Shimizu Marine Building

1. Daisuke Sasaki Vs Hiroshi Fukuda
2. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata & Guanchulo

HARASHIMA and Shigehiro Irie have a few skirmishes lined up before their No. 1 Contender’s match at the end of the month.

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Masa Takanashi

Kendo Kashin will not reveal who his partner is until the match takes place. However Antonio Honda has come out saying he will be Kashin’s partner. Honda will play a supporting role much like Sylvester Stallone does in the movie Creed. Honda also thinks Stallone will definitely win the Best Supporting Actor Award at this year’s Oscars. Honda is doing this so Kashin can beat Yasu Urano and nominate Honda as the rightful No. 1 Contender for the DDT Extreme Title.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BATTLE MISSION 2016 CODE.2”, 06/02/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

4. Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao Vs Poison Miura & Poison KANNA (w/ Poison Sawada JULIE)

Poison Sawada JULIE wants to transform Tokyo Joshi Pro into Snake World Joshi and currently has two women under his spell. Akane Miura & KANNA both came to him looking to become more powerful. Saki Akamiya & Hyper Misao are trying to stop him and are being aided by people from JULIE’s past like Kero Tanaka and Mitsuya Nagai.

MIZUHO is taking another leave of absence. She has recently been suffering from dizziness in her matches and it has resulted in poor performances. She will be out of action for the immediate future.

You Can Never Eliminate KENSO, Believe Us We’ve Tried

BASARA “VAJRA 2”, 05/02/2016
Saitama Wrestle Fighter Museum

1. Hiroshi Fukuda Vs Koji Iwamoto
2. 3 Way Match: Ryu Gouma Vs Atsushi Maruyama Vs SAGAT
3. Isami Kodaka & Hi69 Vs Yusuke Kubo & Tsutomu Oosugi
4. Madoka & FUMA Vs Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu
5. Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Daichi Kazato

Two new teams formed during the first BASARA show. Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu bonded pretty quickly. FUMA wants to bond with Madoka over heavy metal but Madoka hasn’t noticed him much.

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 8”, 07/02/2016
Saitama Kawaguchi City Industrial Science and Technology Center

1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Elimination Match: Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine & KENSO (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata

Dancing can’t decide it. Trapping people in lockers can’t decide it. The feud between T2Hide and #OhkaEmpire over the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles will be decided in an Elimination Match.

DDT “IKAPPE YOKAPPE IN IBARAKI 2016”, 11/02/2016
