??? Fans – Withheld

1. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Lil Kraken & Yasu Urano when Nakano pinned Kraken with the Samurai’s Return (13:34).

*V1 for Speed Of Sounds.
5. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated SAGAT with a Rolling Back Clutch Hold (20:12).
*V1 for Ryota Nakatsu.

All is good between Sparky after their Union MAX Title match. Ryota Nakatsu said only people who are the same age and on the same team could fight each other like they do. It was a fight to the death but all that separated Nakatsu from SAGAT was a rolling pin. Nakatsu says it is his new move and he wants to call it the Nakaroll.

Speed Of Sounds approached Sparky after the main event. Banana Senga said he has a history with Nakatsu. Five years ago they were supposed to have a singles match but before it took place Nakatsu broke Senga’s jaw in a tag team bout. Senga says Nakatsu owes him a lot of money over it so he should get a MAX Title shot on 14th December. Nakatsu agreed but in return he wants an IRON FIST Tag Titles match with SAGAT against as his partner on 26th December. Senga didn’t want to commit because what if he breaks his jaw again in the MAX Title match? Tsutomu Oosugi encouraged him to win the MAX Title, then they can defend the IRON FIST Titles and then Senga will be a double champion!

Next year Hiroshi Yamato will be celebrating his 15th anniversary in wrestling. He wants to liven up Kimitsu City as well as Chiba as a whole with pro wrestling!

Konosuke Takeshita and Yuki Ueno were friendly teammates for their match but once it was over, Ueno gave Takeshita a German Suplex as a declaration of war! Ueno said he wants to surpass Takeshita with the momentum he has right now. If Takeshita accepts it then they will have more fun at the D-Ou Grand Prix final. Takeshita wants it known that he won’t cut any corners and is determined to beat his friend.

Once again Daisuke Sasaki used a Low Blow to set up his latest victory. Soma Takao said that’s the only way Sasaki can win his matches. Sasaki is upset at the D-Ou Final main eventing over his DDT Universal Title match on 5th December. In order to get more attention for his match with Takao he is demanding it to be a Loser Eats Dog Food Match!

Yuki Iino found a lewd way to apply a European Clutch. He does it in an inverted way that pushes the victim’s face into Iino’s rear end. Then he turns it over into the European Clutch for the pin. This version is called the Yoropean Clutch.

The second match didn’t end the way Kuishinbo Kamen wanted it to so he sat down on a chair at ringside refusing to leave. The DDT wrestlers and staff all picked him up and carried him on the chair away from ringside.

BASARA “BASARA 176 ~THE 16TH FOX PRINCE~”, 27/11/2021
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Isami Kodaka defeated Lil Kraken with an Octopus Hold (8:48).
2. 3 Way Match: FUMA defeated Daiki Shimomura and Yasu Urano when FUMA submitted both Shimomura and Urano with a Camel Clutch Boston Crab (9:52).

5. Ryota Nakatsu 7th Anniversary Match: Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Fuminori Abe & Takato Nakano when Nakatsu pinned Nakano after the Happy Set (18:05).

The Happy Set is another version of the Big Mac, where a bunch more wrestlers stack up on each other before hitting a combined splash on the victim. In other words it’s named after the Happy Meal, except Japan calls it the Happy Set. It’s exactly the kind of treat everyone should get for Ryota Nakatsu’s celebration. Poor SAGAT had to carry all that weight though.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’21” Results

November 25, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’21”, 25/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
437 Fans

1. Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto defeated Suzume & Arisu Endo when Kobashi pinned Endo with the Run-Up Bulldog Headlock (10:42).
2. Nao Kakuta, Haruna Neko & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Neko pinned Harajuku with the Nekodebreaker (10:38).
3. Happy Lucky Quiz Rules: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Hyper Misao with a Crucifix Pin (10:08).
4. Shoko Nakajima defeated Nodoka Tenma with the Diving Senton (16:04).
5. Rika Tatsumi defeated Yuki Arai with the Figure 4 Leg Lock (13:54).
6. International Princess Title: Hikari Noa (c) defeated Miu Watanabe with the Blizzard Suplex (11:43).
*V4 for Hikari Noa.
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) defeated Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh when Mizuki pinned Yamashita with the Cutie Special (24:17).
*V1 for The Magical Sugar Rabbits.

The final Korakuen Hall show for the year in Tokyo Joshi Pro saw The Magical Sugar Rabbits retain the Princess Tag Team Titles against 121000000. The battle came down to Mizuki and Miyu Yamashita in the final minutes. Yamashita had Maki Itoh on hand to set up team moves but Yuka Sakazaki was there to get rid of Itoh until she was struck down with the Skull Kick. It was all up to Mizuki from there and she had Yamashita on the ropes after hitting a release Cutie Special. Another Cutie Special this time with the bridge held got Mizuki the win and MagiRabi’s first successful defence in their latest reign.

When the beaten challengers were leaving the ring, Mizuki called for Yamashita to come back. She said she was able to win today with Sakazaki’s help. She also brought up that it’s been a year since she she decided to join TJPW full time. She loves TJPW and wants to carry the company on her back for the sake of everyone who supports her. So although she hates fighting against Yamashita, she wants to challenge her for the Princess Of Princess Title! How could Yamashita refuse? She accepted the challenge and wants the match to happen on the 4th January Korakuen show! Mizuki was warned that the title is not easy to win because Yamashita will never let go of the belt. Sakazaki encouraged Mizuki to commit to the challenge because she is amazing. Later in the night Itoh made a request to Yamashita to put 121000000 on hold for the time being. The team is not splitting up, they are just on a break so Itoh can review her wrestling ability on her own. They will team again when she is ready.

Hikari Noa has broken out of the Up Up Girls hierarchy with her latest International Princess Title defence. She has now beaten both of her Up Up partners as champion and also now has the record for most IP Title defences! Miu Watanabe threw all her best moves including using the Laserbeam to block a Dropkick. Noa had to use the Blizzard Suplex off the top rope to cause the big shift in the match before pinning Watanabe with the regular Blizzard Suplex. One of Watanabe’s favorite idols once said hard work always pays off. The lesson Watanabe learned today is training hard is not the same as working hard. Noa called the match the toughest battle she ever had. The longer she holds onto the belt the more she doesn’t want to let it go. It puts more pressure on her but she isn’t afraid of anything anymore. Which is why she wants TJPW to have a championship that will allow her to have deathmatches! She’s annoyed that Hyper Misao gets to have a Hardcore Match in DDT next month instead of her but she at least appreciates the roster is becoming more open to doing that style.

The rookie Yuki Arai has made it her goal to wrestle against her seniors and do her best against them. That was proven today with her match against Rika Tatsumi. The veteran had the smart gameplan to work over Arai’s leg, forcing the idol to get desperate and risk fighting at a faster pace. But Arai put Tatsumi is danger with a deep Sleeper Hold she wouldn’t let go of until Tatsumi reached the ropes. Targeting the leg then paid off for Tatsumi when she dodged the Finally, took Arai down with a Dragon Screw and made her tap out to the Figure 4 Leg Lock. Tatsumi said by winning through determination she could feel both her own passion and also Arai’s spirit in the ring. She previously talked about being a spark that will cause a big bang and will leave it up to the fans to think if they saw it today. Arai feels a sense of accomplishment despite losing. It was a great experience and one she thinks might change her life. Tatsumi wants to fight her again when she is stronger. She thinks she will still beat her then, of course.

Last week Nodoka Tenma pinned Shoko Nakajima in the 10-Woman Tag match. She wasn’t able to repeat the result here. The closest she came was with a Lift-Up Back Flip but she couldn’t hit the Killswitch when she needed to. Nakajima recovered, hit the Double Arm DDT and won with the Diving Senton.

There was change in roles for Match #3. Yuki Kamifuku hates it whenever Hyper Misao makes new rules for her matches, so she came up with a new match of her own to give her a taste of her own medicine. The Happy Lucky Quiz had Kamifuku and Misao answering trivia questions. The first to get three correct would win. All of the questions were about Kamifuku and her family so the quiz turned out to be heavily rigged in her favour. When Misao started complaining, Kamifuku attacked her and a proper match broke out. Well I say proper but it ended up with both women spraying each other in the face with disinfectant. There was a scramble for pins and Kamifuku got the three count in the end with a Crucifix style cradle.

A rare result happened early in the show. Haruna Neko directly won a match! Maybe she’s finally figuring out how to put it all together. Yuki Aino, Nao Kakuta, Raku and Mahiro Kiryu did their things while Neko fought off Pom Harajuku. Neko rolled her way into hitting the Nekodebreaker to get the three count.

The Run-Up Bulldog Headlock is quickly becoming an effective finisher for Marika Kobashi. She was in trouble going against Suzume & Arisu Endo’s teamwork but Moka Miyamoto stood up to keep the match level. Suzume got rid of Miyamoto with a Facecrusher but Endo could not seal the deal on her own. That was when Kobashi pulled out the Bulldog for the victory.

GANBARE☆PRO “GANBARE☆CLIMAX 2021 FINAL ROUND” Results

November 23, 2021

GANBARE☆PRO “LEC CLEANPA! PRESENTS GANBARE☆CLIMAX 2021 FINAL ROUND”, 23/11/2021
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
141 Fans

1. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Semi-Final: Tatsuhito Takaiwa defeated Shuichiro Katsumura with the Death Valley Bomb (13:36).
2. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Semi-Final: Yumehito Imanari defeated Tetsuhiro Kuroda with the Lou Thesz Press (10:57).
3. Ganpro Special Mixed 6-Man Tag Match: Moeka Haruhi, HARUKAZE & Baliyan Akki defeated Yuna Manase, YuuRI & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Haruhi pinned YuuRI with the Diving Foot Stomp (12:23).
4. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Special Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Taison Maeguchi defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Tominaga when Ohka pinned Tominaga with the Flame Spear (9:42).
5. Wakadori Vs DNA! Ganpro Special Tag Match: Shota & Soma Takao defeated Kouki Iwasaki Vs Mizuki Watase when Shota pinned Watase with the Frog Splash (16:12).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title – LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Final: Tatsuhito Takaiwa defeated Yumehito Imanari with the Avalanche Death Valley Bomb (12:37).
*Tatsuhito Takaiwa becomes the 1st Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion!

History has been made as Ganbare☆Pro has crowned its own champion! Tatsuhito Takaiwa is the last man left standing to win Ganbare☆Climax 2021 after he beat Yumehito Imanari in the final. Imanari put up a brave fight but a barrage of Takaiwa’s signature moves could not be stopped. The Death Valley Bomb, the Takaiwa Driller and another Death Valley Bomb this time from the top rope made Takaiwa the tournament winner. His reward is the brand new Spirit Of Ganbare Championship! He said he did his best as a 49 year old. His goal as champion is to raise the belt to the same level as the IWGP and GHC championships. He’ll be happy to support Ganpro as champion as long as they bring him a variety of challengers.

Imanari is left to think over how he did in the tournament. His way of life is indie wrestling with the spirit of FMW in his heart but today he experienced the powerful “Lion’s Mark” that stands on top of the wrestling world. Just like how the “Lion’s Mark” have people who sweat in their dojo to reach to the top, Imanari will get to the same destination from a muddier path.

In the semi-finals Takaiwa braced himself for what Shuichiro Katsumura could do to him on the mat. Katsumura needed a gameplan and figured out taking his opponent to the ground would be his best bet. Takaiwa toughed it out and got to use the Takaiwa Driller, Lariat and Death Valley Bomb to make his way to the final. Katsumura knew he had the right idea. He just wishes he could have gotten a few more holds in, then he would have won. The other semi-final saw Imanari survive 12 Lariats in a row from Tetsuhiro Kuroda. He struck back with his own Lariat that knocked Kuroda off-balance. Seeing his opportunity, Imanari switched over to Elbow Strikes including a Rolling Elbow. Kuroda’s guard was taken down and he got pinned with the Lou Thesz Press. Today happens to also be Kuroda’s 50th birthday. He would have loved to have won the Spirit Of Ganbare Title to celebrate it.

The new team of Shota & Soma Takao came out wearing matching gear to show their commitment towards this new union. After they won their match they announced their team name is ROMANCE DAWN. They are starting a new adventure together to turn the pro wrestling world in over its head! This tag team wants to go cross-promotional so they can be in both Ganpro and DDT.

At the end of the show Mizuki Watase approached Ken Ohka and Shinjiro Otani thanking them for booking him today. He likes being at the shows and wrestling for the Ganpro fans. He then asked if he can transfer from DDT to Ganpro! He hasn’t told DDT management yet but he wants to fight in the Ganpro ring from now on. Ohka wants to accept Watase’s request but he has to negotiate with DDT first.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 AUTUMN ~KACHO GETSURO~” Results

November 23, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 AUTUMN ~KACHO GETSURO~”, 23/11/2021
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
150 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Pom Harajuku with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (8:14).
2. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima defeated Raku and Arisu Endo when Nakajima pinned Endo with the Northern Lights Suplex (7:39).
3. Hyper Misao & Miu Watanabe defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Watanabe pinned Kiryu with the Tear Drop (10:22).
4. Mizuki, Hikari Noa & Marika Kobashi defeated Nodoka Tenma, Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Blizzard Suplex (12:46).
5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Suzume defeated Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Punish (17:02).

With two days to go until the Korakuen Hall show, 121000000 are ready to beat The Magical Sugar Rabbits and win the Princess Tag Team Titles. If they do win, Maki Itoh promises to bring Miyu Yamashita somewhere to celebrate. She also joked that Suzume is cuter than Yamashita which crushed Yamashita’s spirits.

Some mind games are being played between Yuki Kamifuku and Hyper Misao. Kamifuku knows that Misao hates dance music so she made the sound team play loud club songs over the speakers. Luckily for Misao, Miu Watanabe quickly made her way over to the music guy and politely asked him to turn it down. She also got the pin on Mahiro Kiryu so the result gives Misao an edge over Kamifuku for their Korakuen Hall singles match.

Pom Harajuku came up with a cunning plan for her 3rd Anniversary match. She entered the ring wearing a referee uniform identical to Daisuke Kiso. She then put on a cardboard mask of Kiso’s face and forced Kiso to wear a costume of herself. Yuka Sakazaki came out and thought Kiso was Harajuku so she wrestled him while Harajuku was disguised as the ref until it was time to ambush her opponent. While the plan did work, the time came for Harajuku to fight Sakazaki fairly and Sakazaki won out in the end.

6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Yuki Ueno (6) defeated Tetsuya Endo (6) with the WR (21:21).

A Block

1. Yuki Ueno (6)
-. Tetsuya Endo (6)
-. Yuji Hino (6)
-. Jun Akiyama (6)
5. Bodyguard (4)
6. Naomi Yoshimura (2)

B Block

1. Konosuke Takeshita (9)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (8)
3. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
-. Chris Brookes (4)
-. MAO (4)
6. HARASHIMA (1)

The D-Ou Grand Prix final comes down to two classmates from the same stable. All week Tetsuya Endo talked lightly about Yuki Ueno, thinking a victory over him was certain. Instead Ueno had other plans and he blocked the Shooting Star Press with his knees. The Dropkick to the face hit its mark but Endo fired back with one of his own. Ueno also stood firm and hit another Dropkick before putting Endo in the WR for the big win. The A Block finished with four wrestlers all tied in first but the Head To Head results ultimately determined Ueno as the winner advancing to the final! He would agree that this is a great achievement that’s worth praise. Endo on the other hand now feels he has nowhere to go. He isn’t going back to DAMNATION T.A because he doesn’t want anything to do with the guy in charge of that ever again. In 2022 he will go on a journey to become a new Tetsuya Endo!

Over in the B Block there was no tiebreaker needed for first place. Konosuke Takeshita completes the group stage undefeated with a successful blitz on Kazusada Higuchi. The two wasted no time and went throwing big bombs at each other. Takeshita threw out the Zahi knee strike and brought back the Surprise Rose to win in quick fashion. That is a move Takeshita has purposely held back from using because it is dangerous for him to do. But Higuchi is an opponent he felt he needed to use it against. Higuchi called the match a disappointing result but one he will take as a lesson for the future.

So now finally Ueno gets to stand face to face against Takeshita again. He’s seen his friend wrestle ever since they were in high school and that lead to Ueno falling in love with DDT. Ueno has gotten strong over the last five years and he’ll do his best to beat Takeshita in the final on 5th December. Takeshita is happy that Ueno will be his opponent for a Korakuen Hall main event. He encourages Ueno to try and go beyond him because they will have a match that only they can put together.

For Yuji Okabayashi it was a case of so close yet so far. He also went through the entire tournament undefeated but two draws keep him away from reaching the final. The time limit stalemate here gives HARASHIMA a little bit of redemption. All throughout the grand prix he’s been telling people he is in great shape despite a horrible run of defeat after defeat. Being able to fight Okabayashi for 30 minutes without losing is proof he can still go and he is confident he can do better. He wants to keep looking forward, aiming higher and win again. Okabayashi feels HARASHIMA’s love for DDT. It is that persistence that prevented the Big Japan wrestler from getting his rematch with Takeshita. Speaking of that, Okabayashi is now rooting for Takeshita to win the final. If he loses, Okabayashi will come back to kill him!

Jun Akiyama did what he could do to catch up but his win over Bodyguard wasn’t enough to push him over the line. Akiyama blocked the Rising High Kick, hit the Kneelift and then another one with his exposed knee. That only got a one count. Akiyama then threw Bodyguard over with the Exploder but that got a two count. Akiyama had to hit more Running Knee Lifts and then use the Wrist-Clutch Exploder to finally put Bodyguard away. Bodyguard was impressed by Akiyama’s strength and thinks he is moving faster than he was back in All Japan. If DDT wants to invite him back, he will work harder, rebuild his body and compete again.

Oh no, what did Pheromones do this time? Danshoku Dieno & Yuki Iino used their skills to put Yuji Hino, MAO & Yukio Naya all in compromising positions. When Yumehito Imanari grabbed his camera and began to film them, Hisaya Imabayashi ordered the match to be called off. Imabayashi singled out Imanari to blame this time and called him the root of all evil. The GM knows just who to call to come over and destroy him. It’s Shinya Aoki!

A video played of Aoki nominating Imanari as the next DDT Extreme Title challenger and the stipulation is no seconds are allowed at ringside. The match will go ahead in Shinjuku FACE on 12th December. Imanari noticed that when Aoki says the word indie it sounds like he is saying indecent. The press may misreport that the match will be lewd because of that. So Imanari promised that even without his friends at ringside, the match is going to get lewd!

The grudge between Daisuke Sasaki and Soma Takao got even dirtier when they attacked each other after the opening match. With Mizuki Watase already beaten, MJ Paul grabbed onto Takao and held him down. Sasaki then brought out a bag of dog food and claimed he kept this for over ten years. “I’ll never forget the dog food you made me eat!” he shouted. Sasaki attempted to force feed Takao but he punched back and shoved the food into Sasaki’s mouth. Takao then declared he will win the DDT Universal Title from him on 5th December.

The rookies got to experience Hardcore wrestling for the first time thanks to Shunma Katsumata. He invited Toui Kojima, Hideki Okatani and Yuya Koroku to go wild with weapons such as block toys, barbed wire bats, clothing pins, chairs, ladders, pop crackers and more. Okatani tried to put Kojima through a table with the Double Arm Suplex but the table didn’t break. Okatani smashed him through the table the second time. Katsumata covered Koroku in an Acupressure Foot Mat and pinned him with the Totonoe Splash. The rookies all agreed the match was painful but fun.

After the contest was over, Katsumata apologised for making a mess during the dark match. Then suddenly Hyper Misao entered the ring carrying a sign and attacked him with it. She is angry with him for a bunch of reasons. First, The 37KAMIINA humiliated her at the Tokyo Dome during the Rojo Pro Wrestling match held there. And second, Misao is upset she wasn’t invited to be in the Hardcore Match today. She demanded a Hardcore Match against Katsumata and it will happen on 18th December in Nagoya. Katsumata questioned if it is heroic to attack someone from behind and if Misao really is a hero? Misao said this is the way of a hero and she will end his hardcore life!

The very first match of the day was eventful before it even begun. Akito pinned Toru Owashi during his in-ring introduction to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Owashi, Kazuki Hirata and Antonio Honda then chased after Akito while the match went ahead. Yuki Ishida used his power to knock over opponents but Yusuke Okada soon stopped his momentum. Naomi Yoshimura threw everyone around. Saki Akai went wild against Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi. The Iron Man chase returned to the ring and Honda revealed that today is Hirata’s birthday! He sang him a birthday song but Hirata cut him off with a Cradle for a nearfall. CDK grabbed Hirata and used a Super Kick/Praying Mantis Bomb combo to put him away.

The show began with the D-Ou Grand Prix chairman Kenta Kobashi greeting the audience and declaring the opening of the final day. Endo could be heard cheering his announcement from the locker room.

Since today is Hirata’s birthday and there were two special announcements for him. On 26th December in Yoyogi, Maku Donaruto will be on the show. Also on the show Hirata is getting a big singles match against Shuji Kondo! Hirata was surprised by the second announcement and promised to do his best. He doesn’t even know Kondo despite their Kobe connection. He also wants Kondo to go easy on him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “IT’S TIME TO GO” Results

November 20, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “IT’S TIME TO GO”, 20/11/2021
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
202 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yuki Aino defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Venus DDT (8:15).
2. 3 Way Match: Marika Kobashi defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Kobashi pinned Harajuku with the Run-Up Bulldog Headlock (8:00).
3. Hyper Misao defeated Arisu Endo with the Hypami Returns (8:02).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Raku defeated Suzume & Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Famouser (9:36).
5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Nodoka Tenma, Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Hikari Noa, Shoko Nakajima & Rika Tatsumi when Tenma pinned Nakajima with the Killswitch (26:51).

Several of the big matches for next week’s Korakuen Hall show crossed together in the 10-Woman Tag Match. After a long fight mixing together the different pairings, Shoko Nakajima made the crucial mistake of missing the Diving Senton. That allowed Nodoka Tenma to pin her with the Killswitch. After the match Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh both spoke of their intentions to win the Princess Tag Team Titles from The Magical Sugar Rabbits. Yamashita said she was only focused on fighting Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki today. Miu Watanabe vowed to beat Hikari Noa for the International Princess Title. Tenma & Yuki Arai also laid down their claims to beat Nakajima & Rika Tatsumi in their respective singles matches at Korakuen.

We finally got an admission of guilt from Hyper Misao. She is a superhero who cheats! She promised to fight Arisu Endo fair and square because she was confident she would not be outmatched against her. That lasted for about five minutes. Misao lost ground to Endo and pulled out her spray can but Endo grabbed it and sprayed her instead. However Misao was still able to recover and win in the end.

Pom Harajuku spent most of the 3 Way Match carrying an expensive high grade camera. She insisted taking pictures of Marika Kobashi and Mahiro Kiryu as if it was just those two against each other. Kobashi was happy to pose for her while Kiryu was confused. Harajuku tried her best to protect the camera but doing so cost her the match with Kobashi getting the win over her.

A Block

1. Tetsuya Endo (6)
-. Yuji Hino (6)
3. Bodyguard (4)
-. Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Jun Akiyama (4)
6. Naomi Yoshimura (2)

B Block

1. Konosuke Takeshita (7)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (7)
3. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
-. Chris Brookes (4)
-. MAO (4)
6. HARASHIMA (0)

The race in B Block is as tight as it ever could be between two people. Yuji Okabayashi kept up his unbeaten streak by defeating Kazusada Higuchi. In a show of bravado during the match Higuchi told the crowd he was about to do the Golem Splash. But when he climbed the ropes, Okabayashi rushed up to him and did an Avalanche Brainbuster. Okabayashi then said he would do the Golem Splash and Higuchi did the same Avalanche Brainbuster to him. Clashing Lariats afterward almost knocked both of them out but they each got back up before the 10 count. Okabayashi deflected the Brain Claw with more Lariats but that along with a Power Bomb couldn’t keep Higuchi down. It took the Golem Splash hit full and proper for Okabayashi to finally win. He told Higuchi after the match that they would fight each other again some day.

Konosuke Takeshita also won his match today in order to stay neck and neck with Okabayashi. The victory was over the winless HARASHIMA, continuing the longtime veteran’s fall from grace throughout this edition of the D-Ou Grand Prix. HARASHIMA missing the Somato gave Takeshita the opening to win with the Roll-Through German Suplex. The result is not being taken for granted. Takeshita knew HARASHIMA is in good shape despite his losing streak. What’s different is Takeshita’s generation have now figured out their own ways of beating the old guard in DDT after studying them. For example, Takeshita says he has about 10 ways to counter the Somato and he used 3 or 4 of them today. On the final day Takeshita has to face Higuchi while Okabayashi will take on HARASHIMA. The results will decide who goes through to the grand final which is all the motivation Higuchi and HARASHIMA need to play spoiler.

With nothing to fight for except pride in their final block match, Chris Brookes and MAO took it upon themselves to make a mess around the venue. They fought outside the ring where MAO tried to run Brookes over with a massive truck tyre. They then went up to the balcony and Brookes tried to throw MAO over the railing. If that wasn’t enough they took the fight outside the building. The audience that stayed inside had to look at Makoto Oishi promoting Wrestle Universe while they waited for the wrestlers to return. Outside the building there was a castle of chairs built for Brookes to crash MAO into. As they chased each other back inside, Brookes gave MAO the Praying Mantis Bomb through some chairs. He then wedged MAO upside down into a stack of other chairs and made it back to the ring in time to be declared the winner by countout. Brookes said the result was not a surprise because MAO is stupid and easy to beat. MAO said Brookes was meant to be in DDT and this is the DDT he fell in love with.

Over in the A Block the competitive field has become more open with today’s results. Bodyguard cut off Yuki Ueno’s momentum with his sheer power. He blocked the WR and used the Rising High Kick to great effect. Once Ueno was put into the Rising Dragon he had nothing left and the match was stopped. Ueno’s back and forth results makes him think he is alternating between dream and reality. He’s been learning more about himself in this tournament than he was when he held the DDT Universal Title. He now has to fight Tetsuya Endo on the final day while Bodyguard meets Jun Akiyama.

Yuji Hino shares the top spot with Endo going into the final day. Unlucky Naomi Yoshimura didn’t have the power in his Lariats to put down the bigger opponent. Instead Hino lifted him up and Fuckin’ BOMBed him for the win. Now all Hino has left to do is wait and see how the remaining block matches on 21st November will go. It’s out of his hands right now. Yoshimura thinks it is pathetic that he could only win one match in this tournament. He can’t figure out how he was able to beat Yuki Ueno but lose to everyone else. He doesn’t know what is keeping him from beating Jun Akiyama or what the difference is between himself and Yuji Hino. He is a tag champion but didn’t bring the belt for all of his matches because he was focused on singles wrestling. All he can promise right now is to work harder in both singles and tag wrestling from now on for both himself and DISASTER BOX.

A bombshell was dropped at the start of the show when the GM Hisaya Imabayashi was convinced to join Pheromones! At first they were going to take him hostage but Danshoku Dieno started asking when was the last time Sanshiro Takagi said “thank you” to him? The GM made his decision by giving Takagi a Stunner. He then started screaming “Employees are not slaves! Raise their Wages! Give them more holidays!” before storming off with his new allies. Takagi told the audience Imabayashi was just tired from working hard.

Imabayashi came back out for the Pheromones match continuing to his rallying cry for workers around the country to stand up against their bosses. Dieno offered him a chair to attack Takagi with but Imabayashi had a change of heart and couldn’t do it. He then gave Dieno a Brainbuster when Dieno tried to bully him! Pheromones knocked him out while Yuki Iino submitted Yuya Koroku to win. After the match Takagi challenged Pheromones for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as revenge for them harming his employee. His tag partners are going to be Atsushi Onita and Kuro-chan. That’s right, the Current Blast Death Match happening in Nagoya on 18th December is now a title defence for Pheromones! Dieno threatened to blast Takagi in every position Imabayashi was blasted in. When they left, Takagi told an unconscious Imabayashi to please come to work on time tomorrow morning. He’ll be limited to only working 8 hours a day so he won’t get tired again. But that’s it!

We are now long past the halfway point and approaching the home stretch of the D-Ou Grand Prix. The races for 1st place are getting tighter at the top. In the A Block Yuki Ueno has caught up after an upset win over Yuji Hino. He slipped out of the Fuckin’ BOMB and pinned Hino with the WR to score what he thinks is the most important win of the tournament. It’s a good thing too because Hino left his mark on Ueno’s chest anyway.

Also in A Block was a must win match for both Jun Akiyama and Naomi Yoshimura. The winner would remain in the chase for first while the loser would be eliminated from contention. In the end it just wasn’t to be for Yoshimura. Akiyama stopped the Throwaway Power Bomb with a Jackknife pin to get the three count. He describes Yoshimura like he is still a junior high school student. If Yoshimura understands what he means then he will get closer to beating him.

While all of that is going on below, Tetsuya Endo is currently standing at the top. He is two points in the lead after beating Bodyguard. This time the Shooting Star Press did not fail him. In fact he thinks today’s one was the best he ever hit. His last opponent is Yuki Ueno and he isn’t worried about him. If Ueno couldn’t beat Daisuke Sasaki then what hope does he have against Endo? But first Ueno has to face Bodyguard tomorrow in Osaka. Bodyguard said if he loses in his hometown then thousands of fans will be sad over it.

Over in the B Block, Chris Brookes is now out of the running. Kazusada Higuchi pinned him with the mighty Brain Claw in a match where both felt like they switched nationalities. Before the match Brookes said he would use his Yamato Spirit to win. Higuchi after the match said he felt like a British knight. He duels with Yuji Okabayashi tomorrow.

HARASHIMA continues to be winless in his block while MAO’s use of the Clothespin continues to pay off for him. MAO feels like he grows after every match he has with HARASHIMA and today continued that. Meanwhile HARASHIMA has accepted the reality of his tournament run. The only thing he can do to save face now is to finish with some points. That is why he will fight Konosuke Takeshita and Okabayashi with everything that he has.
