Yamashita Begins Shoot Boxing, Ibushi Enters Legendary Owarai Feud

June 24, 2015

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE GIRLS BATTLE 2015 ROUND 7”, 04/07/2015
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Akane Miura Vs MIZUHO
2. Saki Akai & Ai Shimizu Vs Nonoko & Shoko Nakajima
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: KANNA Vs Hyper Misao
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Miyu Yamashita Vs Yuka Sakazaki

Hyper Misao takes the injured Erin’s place in the Tokyo Princess Cup. Misao will once again be against KANNA. She believes KANNA has it in her heart to be a hero and her alliance with Saki Akai is only a temporary act of rebellion.

Miyu Yamashita visited the Caesar Gym in Shibuya today to take part in a public shoot boxing practice session held by former UWF competitor Makoto Oe. Yamashita recently took up shoot boxing to become stronger after her defeat to Saki Akai in May. Oe thinks shoot boxing is an interesting direction for a pro wrestler to take and points to another joshi wrestler Syuri as someone who has been a champion in both sports at the same time. He invited Yamashita to take part in the “SHOOT BOXING GIRLS S-CUP 2015 ～FIGHTING WOMAN ASPIRATIONS～” show taking place in Ota Ward Gymnasium this August.

4. Close Encounters Of The Third Kind – Special 3 Way Match: Kota Ibushi Vs Kuishinbo Kamen Vs Kikutaro

Kota Ibushi gets thrown into the famous Kuishinbo Kamen Vs Kikutaro rivalry. May God have mercy on Yukinori Matsui if he’s the ref for this match. Handling two of those three wrestlers is bad enough.

Catching Up On The News I Missed

June 22, 2015

Missed out on a few stories that happened earlier this month. So let’s catch up.

mikami-freelancer

MIKAMI announced he will become a freelancer with his last match as a DDT affiliated wrestler taking place on 19th July. MIKAMI has been with DDT since the very beginning, wrestling on the first DDT show all the way back in 1997. He hopes his new status will help him nurture new young wrestlers in his hometown of Shimane as well as try new things. He pointed out his recent tag team match with Shuji Ishikawa, Daisuke Sekimoto and Yuji Okabayashi as something he would like to do again. MIKAMI will still be wrestling in DDT from time to time and will be at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2015” in August.

sato-hardhit

The management rights of the Hard Hit sub-brand has been transferred from DDT to Hikaru Sato. Previously Sato has been part of Hard Hit as a producer but the box office was managed by DDT itself. Now Sato is pretty much in full control of everything. DDT is still fully cooperating with Hard Hit and there is no change to the staff and talent they will provide for future shows. Sato describes the change as him finally being able to buy the home he has been renting for years. Hard Hit’s first show as an independent brand will be in Yokohama on 27th June.

ResOCRcH

Over in Vietnam Dick Togo is launching New Vietnam Pro Wrestling, the country’s first pro wrestling organisation. Togo along with Mitsuhiro Yoshida set up a wrestling school in the country last year. Togo wants the school to train people from all over the world. The first set of shows will take place at the end of August. Michael Nakazawa, Daisuke Sasaki, Hoshitango and Yusuke Kubo are the wrestlers announced so far.

Drinking is permitted at certain times in the Empty Can Death Match. When a wrestler finishes the drink he can use the empty can as a legal weapon. Fans are also encouraged to throw their empty cans into the ring when they are told to.

Yusuke Kubo is grateful for the opportunity to wrestle for the Union MAX Title. Not just for himself but for FUMA and the rest of the new generation in Union.

At the age of 28, Hiroshi Fukuda is beginning to consider retirement and what his lasting impact will be on the industry. He wants future generations of Japanese wrestlers to behave more like the gentlemen from Europe and the United States. To prove his point he put together a mixed tag team match to show how gentlemen should treat ladies.

5. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi Vs HARASHIMA & Akito
6. KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi Vs Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Hiroshi Fukuda

Looks like Hiroshi Fukuda is taking Tetsuya Endo’s place in Happy Motels while Endo is recovering from his injury.

Gota Ihashi hasn’t escaped dark match status just yet. He must be cursing the automatic title rematch rule right now.

This will be the Arrogant Bastards last show in Japan for now.

The King Of Dark Title will only change hands in the dark match tag if the champion pins one of his opponents.

Hyper Misao picked Erin to be her tag team partner, calling her “The Hero of Talent”. Erin was hesitant to accept the position but she was convinced when Misao gave her her very own superhero mask.

MIZUHO is unable to wrestle due to poor health. However she will be in attendance to perform a song with her group SEXY PANIC.

Chikage Kiba has again opted not to wrestle due to a lack of practice. She’s been unable to train lately (I think she is currently in college) and only wants to wrestle when she is satisfied with her progress.

Devin Sparks & Ric Ellis are a Californian tag team known as The Arrogant Bastards. They approached Sanshiro Takagi requesting to participate in the audition for new T2Hide members. Takagi’s advice to them on Twitter is if they can dance better than Kazuki Hirata, they will pass the audition.

Aja Kong is back. She is still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion last time I checked.

2. Oretachi Nario No – Road To KO-D!?: Ken Ohka Vs Yukihiro Abe

Ken Ohka is now a marked man because of the Right To Challenge contract he currently possesses. Yukihiro Abe has challenged him to a match for the contract. Abe sees this as an opportunity to return to DDT, win the KO-D Title and face all of the new wrestlers that have appeared since he left. Ohka is determined not to lose. However there is danger lurking in the background. Mitomi Masayuki from Enjo-gun also wants a match with Ohka and is not happy to be ignored.
