The annual New Year’s Eve show was a much smaller affair in 2020. Safety precautions meant the show took place earlier in the day and would not roll over into the end of year countdown. The Shuffle Tag Tournament between DDT and Big Japan was also reduced to 8 teams instead of the usual 16.

Shuffle Tag Tournament – Round 1

Smile Pissari Vs HOT Real JAPAN

Two super heavyweights collided when Yuji Okabayashi and Yukio Naya stood face to face from each other. HARASHIMA kept Yuya Aoki away so Naya spent most of the match in the ring. He got some good shots in with Knee Strikes but Okabayashi cut him off with a Lariat and made him submit to the Argentine Backbreaker. Naya said he wants to fight Okabayashi again. Aoki was apologetic for not getting to help his tag partner more.

170cm Vs Nomutake

It only took until the second match for overtime sudden death rules to kick in. Konosuke Takeshita and Makoto Oishi were scrambling over each other in the dying seconds of the match. When time expired, One Count Fall rules came into play for the restart. Takuya Nomura put Akira Hyodo in a Cross Armbreaker and rolled him onto his shoulders to get the pin. At least Hyodo thought he and Oishi worked well as a team given their age difference.

Nakanoueno Vs Sodomy & Scars

Things got cheeky in Match #3. Danshoku Dieno accidentally put Drew Parker in the Lip Lock. Parker later accidentally pulled down Dieno’s tights to reveal he was wearing a diaper underneath because he still has not recovered from the CO2 attack to his rear end last week. Still he went into the Hell Gate position but Yuki Ueno Dropkicked him in the butt. Yasufumi Nakanoue rushed over to give Parker the Lip Lock while Ueno pinned Dieno with a School Boy. Dieno said afterward there are two kinds of butts in the world. Those that are for entertainment and those that are not.

Daisuke In The Sky Vs LINE Tomodachi

Round 1 ended with Daisuke Sekimoto & Tetsuya Endo defeating Hideyoshi Kamitani & Chris Brookes. It went back and forth until Endo gave Brookes the Tetsuya In The Sky and Sekimoto pinned Kamitani with the German Suplex. Brookes threatened to remove Kamitani from their LINE group backstage but Kamitani convinced him to give him one more chance.

Fluorescent Lighttube Death Match

The first of two non-tournament matches was the long awaited lighttube death match between Ryuji Ito and Shunma Katsumata. Lighttubes, thumbtacks, Lego, a barbed wire bat and even sauna stones were used as weapons. Ito came out on top in the end but he praised Katsumata for keeping up with death matches, especially this week’s schedule. He doesn’t likes saunas though because they are too hot. Katsumata tells him everyone says that at first but they always end up liking it.

Shuffle Tag Tournament – Semi Final

Smile Pissari Vs Nomutake

The semi finals began and one of them went into extra time. Okabayashi came out wearing a similar entrance robe as HARASHIMA. Nomura wanted to get into a kick battle with HARASHIMA so that is what he got. In the final minutes, Okabayashi and Takeshita both went down from a Lariat but only Okabayashi got to tag out. HARASHIMA went for the Somato and Takeshita avoided it before the bell rang for a time limit draw. At the restart, HARASHIMA kicked Takeshita’s injured arm, followed with a Thrust Kick to the face and pinned him for the one count with a Jackknife. Nomura would like to team with Takeshita again but he doesn’t know if his regular tag partner Fuminori Abe would approve of it. Takeshita then suggested he could fight against Nomura & Abe.

Nakanoueno Vs Daisuke In The Sky

The tag synergy continued with Sekimoto & Endo wearing each other’s entrance robes. After a Double Torture Rack spot, Endo encouraged Sekimoto to German Suplex him and Ueno together. Ueno slipped out and landed on his feet while Endo took the full brunt of the move. Ueno hit Sekimoto with a Frog Splash and Nakanoue won with a big Lariat. Sekimoto apologised to Endo over and over backstage. He admits his wife tells him he is too careless all the time. Endo promised to improve his fingertip strength so his clutch will get stronger.

New Year’s Wrestling 2020 Special 8-Man Tag Match

The young boys were fed to the grizzly old veterans but they didn’t go down without a fight. Yuki Ishikawa stepped in as a last minute replacement for Kosuke Sato because of injury. Takuho Kato set Keigo Nakamura up to do the Exquisite Moonsault on Kazuki Hashimoto. A nearfall then came when Hideki Okatani gave Kazuki the Northern Lights Suplex. Eruption cut them off and Daichi Hashimoto took over. He resisted Okatani’s chops and pinned him with the Falcon Arrow.

Shuffle Tag Tournament – Final

Smile Pissari Vs Nakanoueno

The final turned out to be a preview of Big Japan’s 2nd January main event with Okabayashi and Nakanoue squaring off. The match started off with them and ended with them. Ueno wiped out HARASHIMA with a Tornillo leading to the Big Japan pair to take it home. Nakanoue hit the Diving Elbow but HARASHIMA broke the pin and hit a Somato into the corner. Okabayashi got a nearfall with a Power Bomb. He then had to use the Golem Splash to get the three count and win the tournament with HARASHIMA! He thanked HARASHIMA for teaming with him and also for the entrance robe. HARASHIMA hopes to keep up with Okabayashi in 2021. Nakanoue & Ueno were happy with their performances considering they never teamed together before today. Maybe they have Osaka Power of love and friendship.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 THE FINAL!!” Results

December 27, 2020

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 THE FINAL!!”, 27/12/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Toui Kojima Debut Match: Hideki Okatani defeated Toui Kojima with a Crab Hold (5:59).
2. 3 Way Match: Antonio Honda defeated Toru Owashi and Nobuhiro Shimatani when Honda pinned Shimatani with the Diving Fist Drop (8:15).
3. Hold Your Stomach! Forget The Year Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno defeated Nayashiro Nayagi & Super Sasadango Machine when Takagi pinned Nayagi with the Stone Cold Stunner (7:40).
4. Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai defeated Makoto Oishi, Mizuki Watase & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Higuchi submitted Watase with the Brain Claw (7:35).
5. Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao, Mad Paulie & Yuji Hino (w/ Daisuke Sasaki) defeated HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes, Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura when Hino pinned Nakamura with the Diving Body Press (12:56).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Akito, Kazuki Hirata & Shota (c) defeated Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Yuki Ueno when Shota pinned Ueno with the Gannosuke Clutch (12:53).
*V1 for Young Communicaton Generation.
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – Final: Jun Akiyama defeated Konosuke Takeshita by TKO with a Modified Armlock (23:29).

You can now add a former Champion Carnival winner to the short list of D-Ou Grand Prix champions. Jun Akiyama overcame an injured leg to defeat his foe Konosuke Takeshita in the final. The leg injury came when Takeshita caught a Stomp and gave Akiyama a Dragon Screw. From there Takeshita targeted the leg with attacks against the ring post as well as wrestling holds to that limb. What evened the score was Takeshita going into the match with an injured arm that Akiyama could focus on. German and Exploder Suplexes were exchanged and Akiyama Headbutted his way out of a Cross-Arm German Suplex. Seeing his chance, Akiyama applied a Chickenwing Armlock and rolled Takeshita into the centre of the ring. Takeshita struggled to move and soon became lifeless. That caused Yukinori Matsui to end the match and award Akiyama the tournament!

Akiyama received his trophy and praised the field of wrestlers who competed in the Grand Prix this year. He faced a lot of great DDT wrestlers. In fact he lost to two of them in the tournament. But he is the one standing on top in the end. There are only three singles champions in Japan he recognises today: Tetsuya Naito with the IWGP Heavyweight Title, Go Shiozaki with the GHC Heavyweight Title and Tetsuya Endo with the KO-D Openweight Title. (Akiyama later explained he only recognises those championships because Naito, Shiozaki and Endo all won Tokyo Sports Awards this year. All Japan was shut out of the awards so he unfortunately no longer sees the Triple Crown as a major championship. If AJPW can win over the community and the pro wrestling media in 2021, then he will change his tune.) Akiyama now gets to face Endo in a rematch on 14th February in Culttz Kawasaki, this time for the KO-D Title. Akiyama thanked Sanshiro Takagi for inviting him to coach in DDT back in May. He also thanked the wrestlers, staff and fans for accepting him. Lastly, he thanked the All Japan fans too.

From the get go, the DDT Sauna Club did their “Heat Wave WER!!” pose to the Young Communication Generation. In response, Kazuki Hirata & Shota did the post back to their opponents while Akito looked on embarrassed by the situation. Shunma Katsumata hit the Stuka Splash on Hirata. MAO & Yuki Ueno then both leapt across the ring with Frog Splashes on Shota & Hirata. Ueno tried to hit Shota with the WR but Shota maneuvered his way into the Gannosuke Clutch to steal the win. The two teams were satisfied with their match and Akito now understands the power of the sauna.

Shota then turned his attention to Ueno and challenged him for the DDT UNIVERSAL Title. Shota wants to become a leader of the independent scene in 2021 and he is already on his way with two championshps. That’s not enough, he wants a third title that can let him travel around the world. Ueno accepted and the match will happen on 9th January as the Korakuen Hall main event! Akito then asked if his team can next defend the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles in his hometown of Nagoya when DDT goes there on 23rd February. He wants to defend the belts against DDT’s top wrestlers: Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno! Young Communication want to beat the guys they looked up to when they were young. Then in 2021 they will all become main eventers of the indie world!

DAMNATION are looking unstoppable with the addition of Yuji Hino to their ranks. The heavyweight freelancer crushed Keigo Nakamura with a Diving Body Press to win the 8-Man Tag. He also overpowered HARASHIMA in a Chop Battle. Endo went through a few exchanges with Chris Brookes that ultimately ended with Endo hitting the Sasuke Special onto Brookes and a bunch of other wrestlers outside the ring. Shinya Aoki was the one who posed a big threat when he took down Soma Takao but DAMNATION all ganged up on him. Still, Aoki kicked out after taking a string of diving moves Endo and Takao did off of Mad Paulie’s back. After the match Daisuke Sasaki reintroduced Hino to the DDT fans. He said DAMNATION will mess up DDT’s ring in 2021! Hino told him he would like to go wild and have fun with his new friends. Backstage he also said he would like to win the KO-D Title because he thinks he held it before (he did). Endo doesn’t seem too enthused about that.

2020 ends on a strong note for Eruption. The finish to their match saw Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai run opposite ways on the apron to do Penalty Kicks to Makoto Oishi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga. Akai then dove on top of them while Kazusada Higuchi applied a Lifted Brain Claw to Mizuki Watase for the victory.

Let’s be frank, Yukio Naya doesn’t know how to be Sanshiro Takagi. He needed Super Sasadango Machine to teach him when to do the “FIRE!” pose in time with the entrance music. The real Takagi demanded Danshoku Dieno to go into the Hell Gate position but he declined. Sasadango had to explain that Dieno’s backside was burned after he was sprayed with a CO2 fire extinguisher during this week’s Street Wrestling match. Takagi eventually made Dieno climb the turnbuckle and bend over, no matter how much it hurt him. Sasadango revealed he is now a shareholder of CyberAgent and attacked Takagi with his stock certificate to prove it. Sasadango’s mask slipped up when he took an Atomic Drop and he fell face first into Dieno’s backside. Takagi then stuck his fingers into Dieno’s butt, stuck them up to Naya’s nose and gave him the Stunner for the win.

The 3 Way Match briefly became two on one with Antonio Honda & Nobuhiro Shimatani joining forces to fight Toru Owashi. Gongitusune was turned into a heart shape that attracted Honda and Owashi to each other. Shimatani kept them apart but then found himself moving towards Yukinori Matsui for a possible tender embrace. Owashi & Honda both gave Shimatani a School Boy but no count happened because Matsui had his eye closed waiting to be kissed. Matsui was brought back down to Earth and Honda pinned Shimatani with the Diving Fist Drop.

The debuting Toui Kojima was put to the test against Hideki Okatani. Kojima used a Diving Body Attack from the middle rope and also a Running Double Chop. His big move of the match was a Full Nelson Buster for a 2 count. Okatani hit back with a Vertical Chop and the Northern Lights Suplex. Kojima kicked out but was put in a Crab Hold to make him submit. In his post-match interview Kojima said he wants to be a cool wrestler just by standing, like Randy Orton. He was also nervous about today’s debut. Last night he received a message of encouragement from Satoshi Kojima which only made him even more nervous. Satoshi supports him because he always likes seeing another Kojima in wrestling.

Honda’s 16th Anniversary match will be against Choun-Shiryu on 3rd January. The rest of the card for that Korakuen show will be kept secret until the show starts.

GANBARE☆PRO “THE WORLD 2020” Results

December 26, 2020

GANBARE☆PRO “THE WORLD 2020”, 26/12/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Special Single Match ~Wrestle And Bromance~: Yumehito Imanari defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with a Body Strangle Otoshikatame (8:40).
2. Yuna Manase & Rina Amikura defeated Moeka Haruhi & HARUKAZE when Manase pinned HARUKAZE with the Suzuki Dynamic (9:55).
3. Pinch Hitter Nakamura, A Fateful Mischief Reunites!: Kouki Iwasaki & Kota Umeda defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Keigo Nakamura when Umeda pinned Nakamura with the Umeda Driver (13:31).
4. A Special Tag Match To Verify Whether “Age Is Just A Number”: Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated Ikuto Hidaka & Ken Ohka when Ishii pinned Ohka with the Kneel Kick (12:30).
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Shota defeated Asuka (c) with the Gannosuke Clutch (17:04).
*Asuka fails in V3. Shota becomes the 32nd Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion!

2020 for Ganbare☆Pro ends with a new Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion! The upset title change saw Shota catch Asuka with the Gannosuke Clutch. He admitted that Asuka would be beat him nine times out of ten but today is the one time he got the better of her. His brain was still shook so he didn’t know what else to tell Asuka other than he loves her. Asuka left him alone in the ring.

Shota said at the start of the show his goal for 2021 is to become a leader of the independent scene. Well he has the chance to do that because there are already challengers lining up. First, Arata from JUST TAP OUT came out and asked Shota to defend the title on JTO’s 15th January Korakuen Hall show. He brought up the title’s history with TAKA Michinoku as a reason to do this. Shota said he watches JTO on NicoPro and knows they use a ranking system. Arata is currently ranked #5 while TAKA is #1. Shota said if Arata can beat TAKA then he will deserve a title shot. Maybe Shota will go wrestle a singles match in JTO anyway and when he wins he will nominate TAKA himself!

When Shin was finished, Shota was then confronted by Miss Mongol. She joked about never being booked by Ganbare☆Pro after she lost the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles in September. She’s seeing everyone else doing their best so she is going to be bold and demand a shot at the title that came from her original promotion FMW! Shota accepted the challenge and wanted the match to happen on 24th January. Mongol convinced him to do the match on 10th January instead. Also since this is an FMW championship, the match should be a Street Fight Hardcore Match! Imanari agreed and promised Shin he will make it to the JTO show as the champion.

The pair of Ikuto Hidaka & Ken Ohka have a message to spread across the world. Age is just a number! That message was put on blast by Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie. Their teamwork left Hidaka & Ohka battered and beaten in the end. Ishii likes both of them and is also a fan of numbers. He asked Hidaka to prove his claim about age by facing him one on one. Hidaka said he couldn’t prove it today because his team lost. But he has no reason to decline Ishii’s challenge and will enjoy taking on Ishii’s original pro wrestling style.

Shuichiro Katsumura and Kouki Iwasaki got into a brief scuffle after their match. When they were pulled apart, Iwasaki got to talk about yesterday’s engagement news to the fans. He thanked them for their support and will do his best with pride as a pro wrestler.

Yumehito Imanari was proudly showing off his newly won NWA Intercontinental Tag Team Title belt during the show. He and Shinjiro Otani became the new champions in ZERO1 by winning the Furinkazan Tag Tournament on Christmas Day.

Ganpro’s next Korakuen Hall show will take place on 7th April, 2021.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “2020 FINAL ROUND ~I HOPE THERE ARE LOTS OF HAPPY AND FUN THINGS TO DO NEXT YEAR~” Results

December 26, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “2020 FINAL ROUND ~I HOPE THERE ARE LOTS OF HAPPY AND FUN THINGS TO DO NEXT YEAR~”, 26/12/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Marika Kobashi defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Front Neck Lock (5:04).
2. Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori defeated Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Uranage (7:44).
3. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Raku & Suzume when Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:58).
4. Miu Watanabe & Mirai Maiumi defeted Mizuki & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku with the Tear Drop (10:26).
5. Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu & Maki Itoh (2) defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Miyu Yamashita (1).
5a. Nodoka Tenma pinned Mahiro Kiryu with the Killswitch (6:28).
5b. Maki Itoh pinned Miyu Yamashita with the Itoh Royal (5:26).
5c. Rika Tatsumi pinned Nodoka Tenma with the Missile Hips (6:03).

Today was the final Tokyo Joshi Pro show of 2020. The big finale was a 2 out of 3 falls 8-Woman Tag Match. On one side was the Princess Of Princess Champion, the Princess Tag Team Champions and the woman who has been with TJPW since day one. On the other side was their Korakuen Hall opponents including the International Princess Champion. In the first fall Maki Itoh immediately called out Miyu Yamashita to start the match with her. The Bakuretsu Sisters took care of Toyo University Tag when Yuki Aino Side Suplexed Yuki Kamifuku and Nodoka Tenma pinned Mahiro Kiryu with the Killswitch to win the fall.

In the 2nd fall, Rika Tatsumi got the hot tag to swing momentum her team’s way. The match went back to Yamashita versus Itoh. Yamashita went for the Crash Rabbit Heat but Itoh countered it into a Crab Hold. Yamashita tried rolling out of it until Itoh crossed her legs in a Cloverleaf position. But instead of going for the Itoh Deluxe, she instead used a Jackknife to pin Yamashita for the three count! The Cloverleaf Jackknife has now been named the Itoh Royal.

The final fall saw Yuka Sakazaki jump in to face Tatsumi. She avoided the White Dragon Sleeper and countered the Twist Of Fate into a Northern Lights Bomb before tagging out to Tenma. Tatsumi got the better of Tenma after all the wrestlers got involved in a scramble. The Toyo University Tag used a Big Boot/Spinebuster combo on Tenma and Tatsumi pinned her with the Missile Hips to win the deciding fall.

Tatsumi credited everyone’s teamwork for their win today and promised to carry the momentum going to Ittenyon. She will turn everything upside down and become the new Princess Title! Sakazaki understands Tatsumi wants to make a fresh start in the new year but Sakazaki hasn’t done enough to make up for all the missed opportunities from this year. She cannot let Tatsumi win the title off her because she still wants to defend it in 2021. She has been through a lot this year but it has not been all negative. This year she established a bond with the audience and she can feel the love from everyone who took the time to come see her wrestle during such a difficult time.

TJPW’s second PPV on OPENREC.tv will take place on 30th January as Twin Box AKIHABARA. That is the venue where the very first TJPW training shows took place before they went into full event production. It will be eight years to the date when the show takes place which is why the PPV name “STARTING POINT” is very fitting. Just like in the old days, matches will happen on a mat instead of a ring and there will be musical performances from an idol group (TBA) before the matches.

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ -CHRISTMAS EVE EDITION-” Results

December 24, 2020

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ -CHRISTMAS EVE EDITION-”, 24/12/2020
Kitazawa Town Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Homoiro Clover Z Vs NωA Full Scale Battle ~ Oishi Contra Oishi: Danshoku Dieno, Akito & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Makoto Oishi ended in a draw when everyone pinned Oishi with the Combined Miracle Ecstasy (10:37).
2. DDT x Ganpro Exchange Battle: Shuichiro Katsumura & Shota defeated HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata when Shota pinned Hirata with a Mexican Clutch (12:58).
3. On The Day Of Your Birthday! 45th Anniversary Of Toru Owashi’s Birth!: Ryuichi Sekine defeated Toru Owashi and Keigo Nakamura when Sekine pinned Nakamura with a Backslide Pin (9:08).
4. Special Referee Series Part 2: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Yasu Urano with a Bionic Elbow (10:48). (Special Referees: Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi)
5. BOYZ-Like Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Jun Masaoka with the Praying Mantis Bomb (11:15).
6. DNA Alumni Association 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Nobuhiro Shimatani & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & Mizuki Watase when Higuchi submitted Katsumata with the Canadian Backbreaker (15:47).

The main event was a throwback to DNA with each wrestler wearing their old wrestling gear from the days when they were on that brand. After the match Akito came out and thanked Shunma Katsumata for wrestling twice on the show. Katsumata complained about having to do that on Christmas Eve. He hates it so much he now hates Christmas! Makoto Oishi, Danshoku Dieno and MAO came out to try and cheer him up because the BOYZ were supposed to give a present to the all female audience. Instead, they told Katsumata to close his eyes because the women were going to give him a gift. When he opened them back up he saw the audience waving glow sticks to music for him. This made Katsumata happy because it felt like a sauna for his eyes. He thanked everyone and asked when the next BOYZ show will take place. Akito said it will happen next March.

Chris Brookes teased Jun Masaoka by putting a Santa hat on his head at the start of the match. He also called him cute a lot. Masaoka used the referee as a shield and also a step to launch himself at Brookes to make up for the height difference. Brookes caught him in midair with a Knee Strike and immediately hit the Praying Mantis Bomb for the win.

Match #4 was only mean to have one special referee with Antonio Honda in the role. However he tripped and hurt his knee when entering the ring and called for somebody to replace him. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi came out and used his yoga knowledge to heal Honda. In return he was allowed take part in the Konosuke Takeshita Vs Yasu Urano match as the second referee. They got in each other’s way, Hiroshi missed pinfalls, tapouts and illegal moves because he was too busy exercising and Honda kept taking 1,000 yen bribes to switch sides. Takeshita appealed to Honda by setting up the Bionic Elbow but Urano blocked it. Hiroshi made fun of him over it which made Honda mad. Honda remembered that he, Takeshita and Hiroshi were all part of the same unit Happy Motels. Hiroshi remembered too and he began singing with Honda over their happy memories together. Meanwhile Takeshita hit Urano with the Bionic Elbow and won with the move. Hiroshi then sang “Amazing Grace” as one last gift for everyone.

Toru Owashi, Ryuichi Sekine and Keigo Nakamura all wanted to appeal to the audience but got little response to their antics. Wearing Santa hats didn’t work, wrestling didn’t work, writing on each other’s faces with a marker didn’t work, trying (and failing) to play a saxophone didn’t work. The only one laughing at their antics was Daisuke Kiso and that made the three of them look even more foolish. They all attacked Kiso but he fought back with a mixture of lucha and MMA spots. Nakamura encouraged Owashi to climb the top rope and win with a flying move because it is his birthday today. When Owashi got up there, Sekine rolled Nakamura over with a Backslide and stole the win. Afterwards Akito came out and surveyed the audience over who their favourite performer was in the match. Kiso received the biggest applause so he was the winner. Akito granted him a regular spot in BOYZ for his reward.

Even though Match #2 was between a DDT team and a Ganbare☆Wrestling show. However Kazuki Hirata and Shota wanted the match to be wrestled in a speedy Young Communication style. Neither of them think HARASHIMA and Shuichiro Katsumura are capable of doing that because of their age.

During the show opening ceremony, Makoto Oishi was pulled in two directions by Homoiro Clover Z and NωA. He was unintentionally dragged to the back by because both teams refused to let him go. Their match was first on the card and Oishi had to participate in the musical entrances for both teams, tiring him out before the match even began. He wrestled for both teams, switching back and forth throughout the match while each side’s music in the background changed for who he was fighting with. It reached the point where Oishi didn’t know what to do so he ended up attacking everybody in the ring! Dieno, Akito, Katsumata and MAO all worked together to fight back and they all piled on top of Oishi to pin him. Everyone except for Oishi were announced as the winners. Oishi got on the microphone and said he loves both Homoiro Clover Z and NωA so he cannot choose between them. Suddenly, Hideki Okatani ran into the ring angry at Oishi for not choosing Junretsu. Okatani stabbed Oishi and laughed as the room went dark.

1. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match @ Tokyo Solamachi 3-4F Solami Zaka: Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Hikari Noa defeated Miyu Yamashita, Nodoka Tenma & Marika Kobashi when Sakazaki pinned Kobashi with a Sliding Lariat (10:47).
2. 6-Man Tag Match @ Asakusa Kaminarimon Ichinomiya Shotenkai: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai defeated Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Akito when Higuchi submitted Hirata with the Canadian Snow Samba Backbreaker (16:15).
3. Tag Match @ Yakiniku Drago Skytree Ekimae Store: HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya defeated Makoto Oishi & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Oishi & Nakamura with the Somato (3:16).
4. DAMNATION! Vs DDT Sauna Club! @ Sumida Health Sports Center Pool: Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao, Mad Paulie & Hiroshi Yamato (w/ Daisuke Sasaki) defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Yuki Ueno when Endo pinned Katsumata with the Shooting Star Senton into the Pool (19:53).
5. Current Explosion Death Match @ Tokyo Solamachi 8F Dome Garden: Kuro-chan (w/ Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine & Yuki Kamifuku) defeated Atsushi Onita (w/ Sanshiro Takagi, Chris Brookes & Maki Itoh) with the Current Blast Bat Swing (11:09).

All around Tokyo SKYTREE Town there were pro wrestlers waiting around for matches to happen. Members of Jungle Pocket followed the action from place to place for the ABEMA viewers at home. The reason for all of this was the long awaited Current Blast Death Match between Atsushi Onita and Kuro-chan. Both men were allowed a trio of wrestlers to accompany them and get involved in the fight. Kuro-chan tried to run away but Onita caught him and let Chris Brookes & Maki Itoh beat him up. Itoh swung a Current Blast Bat but Super Sasadango Machine stood in her way and took the blow. Onita pinned Kuro-chan after the explosion but Yuki Kamifuku broke the count. Sasadango told Kuro-chan that Kamifuku’s knees contain ingredients that would heal him from the blast. Kamifuku was grossed out but allowed Kuro-chan to lick her knee for recovery purposes. That powered up Kuro-chan until Sanshiro Takagi strangled him with a belt. Onita put Shinya Aoki through a table with a Piledriver then grabbed another Blast Bat. However Kamifuku turned off the bat’s power supply at the last second. The distraction allowed Sasadango & Aoki to attack Onita. Kuro-chan & Kamifuku then swung the Blast Bat at Onita together for the second explosion. Soon after, Onita grabbed the last Blast Bat but Kuro-chan grabbed Kamifuku to be his human shield. Onita hesitated and Aoki attacked him from behind. Kuro-chan grabbed the bat and hit Onita for the final explosion. Two Blast Bat hits were too much for Onita and he couldn’t kick out of the pin. Kuro-chan has defeated him!

Kuro-chan taunted Onita by pouring a bottle of water over him and bragging about “the moment when the pro wrestler lost to the entertainer!” Onita got up and started beating Kuro-chan with the bottle. Kuro-chan backed off but was still laughing over winning the match. An angry Onita then turned his attention to Jungle Pocket when they stepped in to protect their fellow entertainer. Kuro-chan grabbed Onita’s leather jacket, put it on himself and declared himself the new Evil Ways!

Over at the Sumida Health Sports Center pool, the DDT Sauna Club and DAMNATION met for a swim and an 8-Man Tag. After a quick swimming race, Jungle Pocket’s Otake asked when they would start wrestling. Daisuke Sasaki demanded money and both teams agreed that the match winner would get Otake’s money. After fighting around poolside, everyone wound up in the pool when a chain of Headscissors was flipped over by Mad Paulie. Everyone then moved over to the waterslide. Tetsuya Endo gave Yuki Ueno a Sunset Flip down the waterslide with Yukinori Matsui sliding after them to try and count the pin. One by one the wrestlers slid down with MAO’s turn involving a bunch of small rubber ducks coming down with him. Shunma Katsumata tried to blow hot sauna wind with a towel at Hiroshi Yamato but since it was pool it only made Yamato feel cold. Katsumata & Ueno put a rubber ring around Yamato and tried to make him float upside down in the pool. Konosuke Takeshita, Ueno & Katsumata tried piling on top of each other for a triple piggy back attack but they fell over when Sasaki sprayed them with a hose. The Sauna Club recovered to give Soma Takao an Assisted Cutter into the pool. There was a bridge where Paulie did the Reverse Splash into the pool but everyone moved out of the way. Takeshita then gave Yamato the Kinniku Buster from the bridge into the water. Sasaki was all alone against the Sauna Club when suddenly Yuji Hino showed up wearing a DAMNATION shirt! One by one he destroyed the Sauna Club and he gave Katsumata the Fuckin’ Bomb from the bridge into the pool. Endo then hit the Shooting Star Senton from the bridge to Katsumata and pinned him in the water.

After the match, Sasaki introduced everyone to Hino. He explained they used to be soldiers together and now Hino is the newest member of DAMNATION! Not only that but Hino will also be at the 27th December Korakuen Hall show. Hino threw Otake into the water to celebrate and everyone in DAMNATION laughed.

Hirohisa Ota from Jungle Pocket spectated a match held in a nearby yakiniku restaurant. Yukio Naya welcomed him and they looked at the menu until they heard a commotion nearby. It was Makoto Oishi & Keigo Nakamura causing noise and being a nuisance. Angry clerk HARASHIMA confronted them and with Naya started the tag match against the troublemakers. Oishi tried to take female clerk hostage when suddenly the disgraced sumo wrestler Takatoriki appeared from the back of the restaurant! He and Naya slammed Oishi & Nakamura together outside and HARASHIMA pinned both of them with the Somato.

The third Jungle Pocket member Shinji Saito met up with Saki Akai along the shopping street when all of a sudden Akito & Kazuki Hirata showed up in a rickshaw pulled by Danshoku Dieno. Luckily for Akai, the rest of Eruption showed up from the nearby subway and the trios match was ready to begin. Dieno summoned samba dancers while he did the Asakusa Nightmare to Akai. Akito chased Kazusada Higuchi into a store and found Higuchi dressed like an enlightened monk attending pilgrimage. Higuchi wouldn’t budge while he was in his state of enlightenment. Yukio Sakaguchi and Hirata stopped fighting so they could go buy sweet desserts. Sakaguchi made sure it was paid with money from Hirata’s wallet. Higuchi returned on a bike and cycled into his opponents. Dieno climbed up a wall and sat in the Hell Gate position. Hirata then called for “Anal Snow Samba” and Dieno shot smoke from beneath him onto everyone below while the samba dancers performed around them. Sakaguchi used a fire extinguisher to freeze Dieno’s ass. Akai then sprayed it into Hirata while Higuchi held him in the Canadian Backbreaker for the finish.

The show began at the entrance of Tokyo Solamachi where six Tokyo Joshi Pro wrestlers came to fight. Marika Kobashi brought along a selfie stick but Hikari Noa used it to choke her. Nodoka Tenma Body Slammed Mizuki onto the ground and then jumped on top of her with a Body Press. Yuka Sakazaki and Miyu Yamashita fought near the stairway and Sakazaki ended up pushing her opponent down the steps. Sakazaki, Mizuki & Noa then joined up for a sprint down the path to hit a Triple Dropkick on the other team. Noa found a ladder and spun it around, hitting anyone who dared come near her. The ladder was set up near the Skytree and The Magical Sugar Rabbits did a Double Diving Body Attack off it onto everyone below. Sakazaki ended the match by pinning Kobashi with the Sliding Lariat.

DDT “DRAMATIC 2020 MARINE!” Results

December 20, 2020

DDT “DRAMATIC 2020 MARINE!”, 20/12/2020
Shizuoka Shimizu Marine Bill
??? Fans – Withheld

2. A Rumble Of Laughter! DDT Variety Group Sangokushi: Kazuki Hirata defeated Danshoku Dieno and Antonio Honda when Hirata pinned Honda (10:25).

5. DAMNATION Vs Junretsu!: Tetsuya Endo & Nobuhiro Shimatani defeated Jun Akiyama & Hideki Okatani when Endo submitted Okatani with the Yurikamome (11:59).
6. Shinya Aoki Shizuoka Triumph! Shimizu Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Shinya Aoki defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Ueno when Aoki pinned Katsumata with a Crucifix Chickenwing (20:30).

The DDT Sauna Club started the show giving their opinions on today’s opponents. Shinya Aoki can almost be a member because his intensity can be as hot as a sauna. HARASHIMA is a health nerd so he would also get along with the Sauna Club. Toru Owashi however is an unhealthy black pig and those animals are not allowed in saunas. Owashi stuck his head out of the entrance gate when he heard that. In the main event, Aoki had Shunma Katsumata in the Foot Choke when Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno broke it up. The DISASTER BOX duo kept them out of the ring while Aoki went back to Katsumata. At first it looked like Katsumata was unconscious but he was faking it to cradle Aoki for a nearfall. Aoki held his opponent in a Chickenwing and rolled him over with a Crucifix to pin him for the victory.

A confident Hideki Okatani told Jun Akiyama to leave the start of the match to him. He was then easily outwrestled by Tetsuya Endo. When Nobuhiro Shimatani tagged in he demanded to fight Akiyama and the same thing happened to him. Shimatani was able to clamp onto Akiyama to prevent him from breaking up Endo’s submission hold on Okatani. Akiyama said he has never fought anyone as noisy as Shimatani. A proud Shimatani now wants to face Akiyama in a singles match.

The 3 Way Match took all of the wrestlers involved to their limit. Danshoku Dieno went to the corner in his Hell Gate position. Antonio Honda missed the Gongitsune and hit Daisuke Kiso with it by mistake. He then stuck his Gongitsune hand into Dieno’s backside to charge up his attack. Honda hit Kazuki Hirata with the Gongitsune but then tripped over Kiso and fell face first into Dieno’s Hell Gate. Hirata then collapsed on top of Honda to get the unintentional three count.

DDT “SATURDAY KASUKABIAN! 2020” Results

December 19, 2020

DDT “SATURDAY KASUKABIAN! 2020”, 19/12/2020
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube
??? Fans – Withheld

0. Exhibition Match: Mizuki Watase defeated Toui Kojima with a Dropkick (4:54).
1. Nobuhiro Shimatani defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Modified Camel Clutch (8:17).
2. Danshoku Dieno & Toru Owashi defeated Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda when Owashi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (12:06).
3. Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya when Ueno pinned Naya with the BME (13:51).
4. Young Communication Generation Vs Junretsu!: Akito, Kazuki Hirata & Shota defeated Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani when Hirata pinned Okatani with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (11:41).
5. Eruption Vs DAMNATION!: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Soma Takao & Mad Paulie when Sakaguchi pinned Paulie with the God’s Right Knee (12:34).
6. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata defeated Tetsuya Endo & Hiroshi Yamato when Takeshita pinned Yamato with the German Suplex (17:11).

Konosuke Takeshita used the main event to show everyone his left arm is pretty much healed. Shunma Katsumata used his time with Hiroshi Yamato to make fun of Yamato’s X sign he makes with his arms. Tetsuya Endo helped Yamato get some revenge by calling for “Skill Award X” and the two of them attacked their opponent with X Thrusts. Yamato accidentally hit Endo with an X and Takeshita knocked him down with a Lariat. Katsumata landed a Plancha on Endo while Takeshita finished off Yamato with the Fable and then the German Suplex. Takeshita told the crowd he expects to be fully recovered in time for the D-Ou Grand Prix final. Katsumata then invited the other DDT Sauna Club members Yuki Ueno & MAO into the ring and interviewed them about their earlier victory. Katsumata then looked at the ceiling and told everyone they can clearly see the aurora of Finland.

Eruption picked apart Soma Takao & Mad Paulie. After the match Yukio Sakaguchi asked Takao where was CIMA? Takao should bring him over next time and they can do the KO-D Tag Team Titles match early. Takao grabbed a chair and threatened to throw it at Sakaguchi. The ringside seconds calmed him down and Takao left. However Takao confronted Sakaguchi backstage during his post-match interview. He knocked the interview booth over Eruption and told them he and CIMA will take their belts.

Kazuki Hirata wanted to teach Jun Akiyama how to dance but the offer was violently turned down. Hirata got the last laugh by winning the match for his team and he danced in front of Akiyama again to rub it in. The DDT Sauna Club approached the Young Communication Generation after the match. Akito and Katsumata agreed that ALL OUT ran out of goals in 2020. Katsumata wants to restart ALL OUT sometime in 2021 but it’s important for the group to take a break. That’s why Katsumata will be fighting for the Sauna Club in the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match on 27th December. He also knows Hirata and Shota both like visiting saunas but Akito does not. Akito is the odd man out in the title match. What Akito does have in common with his teammates is none of them want to lose to the DNA generation.

The Gongitsune joke led to some miscommunication between Antonio Honda and Chris Brookes. When Honda tripped, Brookes called for medical help and wanted Honda to be rushed to hospital. Honda told him he wasn’t hurt, he was only setting up his latest Gongitsune joke. Brookes got angry at Honda for lying and stormed out of the ring back to the locker room. Honda had to wrestle Danshoku Dieno & Toru Owashi on his own and yelled out an apology to Brookes, hoping he would hear it. Brookes did and his music played for a heroic rescue. Brookes then tripped on the rope and hurt his knee. It was then Brookes who told the Gongitsune story almost entirely in Japanese. Unfortunately the Gongitsune attack backfired and Honda hit Brookes instead of his intended target. Owashi then rolled Honda in La Magistral for the three count.

The trainee Toui Kojima was given an exhibition bout before his official debut on the 27th. Mizuki Watase put him through the wringer but Kojima got in a little bit of offence with a Double Chop. Watase stopped him with an Arm Drag followed by a Double Stomp. Watase then won with a Dropkick to the face.
