GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO SUPER DARIUS ’24”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
111 Fans
1. Kaho Kobayashi defeated Banny Oikawa with the 120% School Boy (9:53).
2. Mixed Tag Match: Alex Lee & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Riara & Shota when Lee pinned Riara with the Vinco Plex (16:40).
3. Sumire Natsu defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Yoran (12:54).
4. GanJo Vs Marvelous: Takumi Iroha & Mio Momono defeated Yuna Manase & YuuRI when Momono pinned YuuRI with the German Suplex (19:48).
An inter-promotional rivaly between Ganbare☆Joshi and Marvelous appears to be growing. At the previous GanJo show Mio Momono beat YuuRI. Since then Momono has been going around claiming she is the main representative of GanJo. Both YuuRI & the returning Yuna Manase weren’t going to take the disrespect lying down and agreed to team up as Nippon Ganbare☆Union again to get revenge. Momono called in Takumi Iroha to make it a two on two battle. The Marvelous team ended up standing tall again with Iroha taking Manase out of the ring so Momono could put YuuRI down for the second show in a row.
After the match Momono again called herself the representative of GanJo and claimed she successfully defended that title today. She put aside the jokes in order to thank Manase & YuuRI for the invitation to wrestle on today’s show. Iroha then teased YuuRI for all of the mistakes she made during the match. She does her best but also hasn’t been training hard enough, which hasn’t changed from when the two of them practiced together as rookies. Manase accepts that Momono now calls herself a GanJo wrestler because the title does not have to belong to just a select few wrestlers. However YuuRI promised to beat Momono to reclaim that spot and also replace her as the top Marvelous representative! Iroha said she will be waiting for GanJo and Ganbare☆Pro to come visit Marvelous in the future.
Sumire Natsu gave Yoshiko Hasegawa advice after their match on how to handle life as a freelance pro wrestler. When Natsu became a freelancer seven years ago she was anxious about whether she could survive in the industry. When Hasegawa turns freelance in April that means they will become business rivals! They will be fighting for the same small seat at the table so they have to do their best to beat the crap out of each other. As long as Hasegawa does not steal that seat from Natsu she will be happy to work together with her. She told Hasegawa she is now responsible for managing her own schedule and merchandise. She also told her the secret about what to do whenever a promoter she does not know puts on a show but that was for Yoppy’s ears only.
The mixed tag match begun with a tribute to the late Akira Toriyama when both teams got into a Kamehameha duel across the ring. The match almost came to a quick end after Riara took Low Kicks from Tyson Maeguchi and was almost counted out for a KO. She recovered and gave Alex Lee a Dropkick to continue fighting. Shota started using Riara as a weapon by Body Slamming her onto Maeguchi. He then tried to repeat the spot with a Suplex but this time Maeguchi rolled out of the way. The other team had their own problems when Lee accidentally hit Maeguchi with a Missile Dropkick. However she got her hands on Riara again and pinned her with the Vinco Plex for the win.
Banny Oikawa almost got to beat Kaho Kobayashi with a European Clutch. Kobayashi kicked out and then stunned her opponent with a Right High Kick. From there she used the 120% School Boy for the three count.

BASARA “BASARA 243 ~TAKAGARI 23~”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. SAGAT defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Goregrind (8:27).
2. KUBITO & Yasu Urano defeated Gouma Ryu & Banana Senga when KUBITO submitted Ryu with a Crossface Lock (7:24).
3. Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato with the Tsuki no Ishi (12:42).
4. Masato Kamino & Chicharito Shoki defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Kamino pinned Judomaster with the Lariat (14:54).
5. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA, Ryota Nakatsu & Fuminori Abe when Kodaka pinned Nakatsu with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (18:52).
2024 could be the year Sento Minzoku is back on top of the BASARA mountain. Minoru Fujita is currently the Union MAX Champion and the result of today’s main event could lead to the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles coming back to him too. Isami Kodaka pinned Ryota Nakatsu to win the match and told Fujita he wants the two of them to challenge Harimao for the titles. Nakatsu complained that Fujita shouldn’t have to be Kodaka’s partner and Ryuichi Sekine should do it instead. However he eventually agreed to put the belts on the line against Fujita & Kodaka. Kazusada Higuchi’s next BASARA appearance is on 19th March but Fujita is already defending the Union MAX Title on 19th March on that show. He refuses to wrestle twice, especially if it is in two championship matches back to back. They all think Higuchi will be available to wrestle in BASARA again on 20th April so they will do the title match there unless they got Higuchi’s schedule wrong.
Sekine announced he will be back to wrestling on a regular schedule with BASARA starting from next month. He made it a goal to work his way into becoming a champion again.
Yesterday BASARA reported that Takato Nakano had a fever but tested negative for covid. They decided to pull him from the show as a precaution and brought in Chicharito Shoki to replace him. If that wasn’t enough, it was announced that the love sickness Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi is suffering from has gotten worse so he couldn’t wrestle today either. The masked Judomaster was suspiciously in the venue again to take his place for the second show in a row. He seemed to have a better understanding of pro wrestling this time but still lost to Masato Kamino.
Today is the first time Gouma Ryu wrestled in Takashimadaira Kumin Center for a BASARA show. He thought he was taking part in another Pro Wrestling Trial but Banana Senga forgot to bring his outfit. They held a court session arguing whether or not injuring your opponent in a pro wrestling match should be a crime. They told KUBITO and Yasu Urano to wrestle each other in order to provide evidence. None of their actions injured either of them so the referee/judge declared them Not Guilty. Ryu did not accept the result and convinced Senga to fight the other two. KUBITO & Urano quickly beat them.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 06/03/2024
Shinjuku FACE
303 Fans – No Vacancy
1. To-y & Yuni defeated Chris Brookes & Ilusion when To-y pinned Ilusion with the Kojima Impact (7:58).
2. Special Tag Match: Makoto Oishi & Shishamo Power defeated Yoshitatsu & Antonio Honda when Power pinned Honda with the Shishamo Of Yamada (9:17).
3. Kazuki Hirata Debut 14th Anniversary Vol. 1 ~ Are You Serious!? Seal Your Opponent’s Technique Death Match!!: Kazuki Hirata defeated Danshoku Dieno by Disqualification (9:29).
4. Jun Akiyama, Kazusada Higuchi & Soma Takao defeated Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul when Higuchi pinned Paul with the Brain Claw Press (10:56).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ DDT Vs AJPW: Ryuki Honda, Yuma Anzai & Ryo Inoue defeated Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Honda pinned Matsunaga with the Final Vent (17:51).
6. Road To Judgement 2024! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated HARASHIMA, Takeshi Masada & Hideki Okatani by Referee Stoppage when Ueno used the Dojime Sleeper Hold on HARASHIMA (18:31).
It turns out getting back to good condition again isn’t worth much when that energy can get choked out of you afterwards. Yuki Ueno scored a major fall over HARASHIMA by strangling him with the Dojime Sleeper Hold until the main event was stopped by the referee. The finish came when Ueno countered the Somato by catching HARASHIMA mid-sprint and spinning it into the Sleeper. MAO and Takeshi Masada also got time to wrestle each other while Shunma Katsumata dug some skewers into Hideki Okatani’s head. MAO talked about how strong The 37KAMIINA are after the win. He thinks Masada is better off being an influencer on social media instead of a wrestler. The DDT Universal Title MAO carries also holds the last three years of his hardships so Masada won’t take the belt from him so easily. Katsumata wanted to call out Okatani but admitted he doesn’t really have anything to say to him. Ueno said everyone in DDT is proud of HARASHIMA’s greatness but he does not want DDT to turn 180 degrees in the other direction if HARASHIMA wins the KO-D Openweight Title from him. The 37KAMIINA don’t want to remain the same and as champions they will continue to make DDT more interesting.
In the warm-up for the KO-D Tag Team Titles match coming up later this month, the All Japan team beat the DDT team. New Period along with Ryo Inoue on their side defeated BURNING and Tomomitsu Matsunaga (in as a last minute substitute for Rukiya). Ryuki Honda got to choke his opponents on the ropes and count along with the referee’s five second warning. He and Yuma Anzai also taunted Yuki Iino by making fun of BURNING whenever the opportunity allowed them to. Iino’s temper got the best of him and he ended up accidentally hitting Tetsuya Endo with a missed attack. New Period turned their attention to Matsunaga but Anzai still found spots to give Endo a German Suplex and then hit Iino with a Jumping Knee. With them out of the way, Honda was free to pin Matsunaga with the Final Vent. New Period celebrated a complete victory for AJPW over DDT and said the same result will happen on 17th March when they become the new KO-D Tag Champions! Iino told them they are not BURNING, he and Endo is. Endo promised to win because the titles are proof he is part of the best tag team in DDT.
A special rule was applied via lottery for Kazuki Hirata’s match against Danshoku Dieno. There were seven different options hidden in envelopes and the one chosen before the show began forced the wrestlers to seal their own techniques for the match. That means Hirata was prohibited from dancing while Dieno was not allowed to do anything “Danshoku” like. It made both of them trying to break old habits while tempting each other to fall for their own tricks. Makoto Oishi walked out to Hirata’s music wearing Hirata’s entrance robe, tempting Hirata around ringside to dance with him. Yukinori Matsui got caught in the action. He was knocked out after taking the Tegatana strike to the neck from Hirata and the Lip Lock from Dieno, both by mistake. Without the referee around, Hirata took out his GO! glasses and Dieno behaved like his old self. Matsui woke up to see Dieno dry humping his opponent and called for the bell to disqualfy him. Dieno said the result doesn’t mean much as a preview for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match because he wasn’t pinned or submitted. Meanwhile Hirata only learned afterwards that if Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor loses the title match on 17th March then they will disband. However when he heard that Naruki Doi came up with the stipulation, he thought it meant that Doi values the unit so much he is willing to put it all on the line to win the titles! Hirata is now motivated to put in 200% effort so he, Doi & Shinya Aoki can become the new champions and stick together as a team.
The return of the seafood loving pro wrestler Shishamo Power went from a happy story to a sad one when Oishi turned on him after their match. For you see, Oishi hates seafood and thinks chicken is much tastier! He continued to attack Power until Chris Brookes entered the ring. Brookes then joined in the attack because he hates seafood too! Suddenly Unagi Mask made his return to DDT in order to rescue his fellow masked ally. The two agreed to team up for an all out battle against the chicken meat lovers at the DDT show sponsored by Yamada Suisan on 14th April.
A press conference was held for Katsumata and Okatani before the show began. Katsumata announced the DDT Extreme Title bout on 17th March is going to be a Painful Jungle Death Match! Each corner of the ring is going to have something attached to it in order to make it more painful when wrestlers are thrown into it. With all four corners covered like this as well as death match weapons being placed around the canvas it will turn the ring into a jungle! Katsumata did not reveal what any of the weapons or material are and teased everyone to use their imagination. Okatani promised the match will be a hot and bloody battle even though he can’t figure out what Katsumata has up his sleeve.

DDT “NARAHA TOWN RESIDENT WRESTLER TOY KOJIMA THANKSGIVING DAY – NARAHA TOWN COME ON!”, 03/03/2024
Fukushima Naraha Sky Arena
820 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino defeated Kazuki Hirata & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Iino pinned Hirata with the Spear (13:19).
2. Chris Brookes & Yuzutaro defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno when Yuzutaro pinned Dieno with the Yuzu Death Drop (9:09).
3. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated Akito & Ilusion when KANON pinned Ilusion with the Sleepy Hollow (12:53).
4. Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Jun Akiyama defeated Yuki Ueno & Soma Takao when HARASHIMA pinned Takao with the Somato (12:49).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Toy Kojima defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani when Kojima pinned Oishi with the Kojima Impact (21:28).
The local hero To-y is still going by the name Toy Kojima in his hometown for reasons related to him being an unofficial ambassador for Naraha Town until the end of this fiscal year (i.e. end of March). Today’s show was free to attend and it led to a bigger audience than DDT expected so extra seating sections in the venue were opened up. To mark the big day, Kojima used a brand new finisher to win in the main event. The Kojima Impact is a modified version of the F5. He tearfully thanked the fans after the match and said the story of both Toy Kojima and Naraha Town is only beginning from here! He now hopes DDT will return for another show next year.
HARASHIMA is now back in great shape after missing last week’s show by having covid. Plus he got to win again right in front of Yuki Ueno. However HARASHIMA is always in great shape so Ueno is not letting that get to him. He said it won’t be the reason why HARASHIMA can beat him for the KO-D Openweight Title in two weeks time. It will be up to Ueno to change and be ready to beat his latest challenger.
There was another change to the card on short notice because Takeshi Masada became the latest wrestler to have fever symptoms and had to miss the show as a precaution. It was decided that the Naraha Town mascot Yuzutaro would be his replacement. Thanks to some help from Chris Brookes, the two of them went on to beat Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno. Takagi had his face shoved into Dieno’s backside, Brookes then gave Dieno a Lip Lock and the Praying Mantis Bomb. The finish came down to Yuzutaro pinning Dieno with the Yuzu Death Drop Senton. You’re correct to assume something doesn’t seem right about what happened. Brookes usually hates mascots. He was able to put that aside for a while but once the match ended, he challenged Yuzutaro to a singles match the next time DDT comes to Naraha. Now that’s more like him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 SPRING”, 03/03/2024
Shinjuku FACE
370 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Kira Summer Debut Match: Arisu Endo & Chika Nanase defeated Nao Kakuta & Kira Summer when Endo submitted Summer with the Camel Clutch (8:07).
2. Uta Takami Debut Match: Raku & Shino Suzuki defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Raku submitted Takami with the Front Neck Lock (9:21).
3. 3 Way Match: Suzume defeated Mahiro Kiryu and Kaya Toribami when Suzume pinned Toribami with the Ring A Bell (8:49).
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Pom Harajuku when Misao pinned Harajuku with the Hypami Returns (12:04).
5. Rika Tatsumi defeated Haru Kazashiro with the Twist Of Fate (8:53).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto defeated Wakana Uehara & Toga when Yamashita pinned Toga with the Attitude Adjustment (12:08).
7. Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino defeated Mizuki & HIMAWARI when Aino pinned HIMAWARI with the Venus DDT (15:58).
The main event was a chance for Yukiniki to deliver their sharpest performance as a tag team so far. Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino came up with a lot of team work to win. They used a Double STO to get rid of Mizuki and then focused on isolating HIMAWARI. It ended with Aino pinning her with the Venus DDT. Afterwards Mizunami said today was their last warm up match as a team before they defend the Princess Tag Team Titles at Sumo Hall on 31st March. Another reason for her excitement is because today is Hinamatsuri Day! Aino said they are going to keep on burning all the way to Sumo Hall.
This week is the one year anniversary of Toga’s debut match against Miyu Yamashita so they were opponents again for a tag match today. She was able to rope break out of the Modified Cobra Clutch and knock down Yamashita with the Elbow Butt. But Yamashita stunned her with a High Kick and won with the Attitude Adjustment. Even though she lost and took the fall, Toga thinks she showed a little bit of growth against Yamashita compared to her debut.
Haru Kazashiro is also approaching the first anniversary of her own debut. She was given a first time singles match against Rika Tatsumi and understood the importance of getting to fight a former champion one on one. She fought off a Figure 4 Leg Lock attempt and used the Rolling Leg Clutch to get a nearfall. Tatsumi cut off her momentum with the Hip Attack followed by the Twist Of Fate for the win. Backstage she said it was weird that the fans were chanting “Haru” instead of “Rika”. She hopes fans will chant “Rika” next time.
One of the big matches at Sumo Hall is Kyoraku Kyomei taking on Aja Kong & Max The Impaler. As part of their preparations for the match, Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao wanted Pom Harajuku to reveal to them Max’s weaknesses. She promised to whisper it into their ears so nobody else could here it. Instead she screeched as loud as she could into their ears.
There were two debuts on today’s show. Uta Takami from The Up Up Girls was one of them. Her match was a tag bout involving the other currently active members of the group. She showed a little bit of agility trying to avoid Raku but was eventually caught in the Front Neck Lock, leading to her giving up. Raku said the match was also an important one for Shino Suzuki because it was a chance for her to show how strong she has become too. Miu Watanabe congratulated Takami for a successful debut. When asked what kind of wrestler she wants to be, Takami said she doesn’t know because there is not a lot she can do right now. But she will do her best and give it her all so she can eventually do everything!
The other debut was for TJPW’s first ever foreign wrestler coming out of their training system. Kira Summer is from Australia. She showed power by giving Chika Nanase a Body Slam that Nanase later claimed felt like all her internal organs were about to burst out of her body. However Summer found herself in danger against Arisu Endo with no help for her thanks to Nanase Shoulder Blocking Nao Kakuta out of the way. Endo picked up the win after making Summer submit to the Camel Clutch. Summer thought she was ready but admits her opponents were surprisingly difficult. She’ll need to practice more to face them properly.
At the start of the show it was announced that Yuka Sakazaki will make a special one-off appearance at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”! I’m just as puzzled at this news as you are. She is being advertised on the show as an AEW wrestler but the weird thing is she hasn’t appeared in AEW, ROH or anywhere else since graduating from Tokyo Joshi Pro last December. When Mizuki heard the news she said she is looking forward to reuniting The Magical Sugar Rabbits again. However she was then told by a reporter that Sakazaki’s match has not been announced yet. Mizuki told the reporter not to say scary things like that. She is now anxiously awaiting for the full card announcement to find out if she and Sakazaki will be together in the ring again.
The former AKB48 idol Ami Yumoto introduced herself to the fans at the beginning of the show. She will have her debut match at Sumo Hall but today is in fact the first time she’s attending a TJPW show. It was also the first time she got to see her upcoming tag partner Nao Kakuta wrestle in person.
Yuki Kamifuku is getting a homecoming show at Shonandai Cultural Center in Fujisawa City on 25th May.
Runa Okubo was at the show. She announced she had passed her high school entrance exams and was accepted into her first choice of school. She will return to wrestle in TJPW again starting from 16th March. Her first priority is to catch up to Haru Kazashiro’s level.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. TWELVE: TEEN AGE RIOT”, 27/02/2024
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans
1. Mikan Cassidy defeated Antonio Honda with the Mikan Punch (15:14).
2. Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Mad Dr. Ueki & Mecha Mummy when Takanashi pinned Mummy with a School Boy (12:54).
3. SWS Hardcore Title: Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Kota Ibushikoshi (c) with the Michinoku Driver II (9:51).
*Munetatsu Nakamura becomes the 173rd SWS Hardcore Champion!
4. Bonus Track: Chris Brookes & El Amigo defeated MAO & Mecha Mummy when Amigo pinned Mummy to prevent a Suicide Bombing (20:10).
No matches were advertised in advance of this month’s hangout with the Baka Gaijin + Friends. The Youtube feed only featured three matches with the third being announced as the main event. However after the feed cut off there turned out to be a bonus match featuring a new face. Or we can only assume it was a fresh face because it was obscured with a makeshift mask. A mysterious wrestler by the name of El Amigo showed up to team with Chris Brookes for a tag team free for all against MAO & Mecha Mummy. Amigo and MAO took the fight outside up above the glass roof of ARENA Shimokitazawa. They returned to the room and Amigo covered the place in fog with a fire extinguisher. The room was then at risk when Mummy looked like it was about to explode. Amigo grabbed Mummy with a hug and pinned it to the floor to get the three count. There were guesses online as to who El Amigo really is? El Desperado came out and revealed he is related to El Amigo. But he would like it if people do not tag him in pictures of his relative.
The match that was officially the main event was used as a spotlight for the future. Student pro wrestler Kota Ibushikoshi was back and he had the SWS Hardcore Title with him, ready to defend it in Baka Gaijin again. The challenger was Munetatsu Nakamura. In what could be the start of a new generational rivalry, Nakamura used the Michinoku Driver II to pin Ibushikoshi and win the SWS Hardcore Title! He was a little paranoid that other wrestlers would try to take the belt away from him during what seemed to be the show closing speech.
There was a conflict of interests in Match #2 because it was a tag match featuring all wrestlers who are currently attached to the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles. The tag match was CDK taking on Mad Dr. Ueki & Mecha Mummy. However Mummy thought it was teaming with CDK and had to be convinced by Ueki to stand by his side. Brookes struggled to fight against Mummy’s steel armour and heavy weight. But when Ueki missed a Falling Headbutt from a stool, Masahiro Takanashi came to his partner’s aid. His fight with Ueki then took a pause so they could sit and drink beer together inbetween throwing strikes at each other. Ueki ended up getting drunk and stripping out of his scientist costume to reveal he was wearing his police themed wrestling singlet underneath. He then pulled out a gun and held everyone in the room hostage. Mummy stopped him with a Rocket Punch, knocking him back to sobriety. It then attacked Takanashi with the Rocket Drill. Ueki order Mummy to hold Takanashi in place so he can throw the Rocket Fist at him. The plan backfired because Takanashi ducked, the fist hit Mummy and CDK rolled Mummy up with a School Boy to win the match. Ueki blamed Mummy for the loss and it sadly walked away carrying the drill in its hands.
Antonio Honda had an unexpected opponent in the opening bout. MAO walked out wearing a tye dye denim jacket and was introduced as Mikan Cassidy! His relaxed and lazy behaviour frustrated Honda as he just couldn’t figure his opponent out. Particularly how to pull his hands out of his pockets. Mikan proceeded to wrestled almost the entire match like that, only pulling his hands out to use his own version of Gongitsune against Honda’s. The tempo changed when Honda began singing while Mikan clicked his fingers to the beat. He then dodged the Bionic Elbow and hit Honda with the Mikan Punch to win the match.
The next Baka Gaijin show will be on 9th April.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2024”, 25/02/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1,600 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda defeated Yuki Iino, Yuni & Ilusion when Brookes pinned Yuni with the Our Love Letter (8:48).
2. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated Akito & Soma Takao when KANON pinned Takao after the Freedom Call (8:24).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazuki Hirata, Naruki Doi & Shinya Aoki defeated Danshoku Dieno, Makoto Oishi & Toru Owashi when Doi pinned Oishi with a Crucifix Pin (9:05).
4. Special Single Match: To-y defeated MJ Paul with a School Boy (7:12).
5. Kazusada Higuchi & Yoshitatsu defeated Yukio Naya & Rukiya when Higuchi pinned Rukiya with the Brain Claw Slam (10:58).
6. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) defeated Hikaru Machida with the Michinoku Driver II (14:27).
*V5 for MAO.
7. Kaisei Takechi Debut Match ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Kaisei Takechi defeated Tetsuya Endo, Hideki Okatani & Takeshi Masada when Ueno pinned Okatani with the BME (20:19).
Today’s DDT show was a little bit different than usual. The big attraction was the debut pro wrestling match of Kaisei Takechi, a member of a famous dance group in Japan called THE RAMPAGE, which itself is part of an entertainment collective called EXILE TRIBE. In 2022 Takechi took a role on a TV drama about wrestling called Fukumen D. That show featured involvement from DDT (represented on the show as a fictional company called BBT, Brave Battle Truth) and it led to the two sides coming up with this deal. The hype behind today’s debut led to best business DDT’s had at Korakuen Hall in years. Tickets had been sold out for weeks thanks to THE RAMPAGE fanbase buying them up to see Takechi’s big performance.
For the main event Takechi wanted to team with Yuki Ueno, the reigning KO-D Openweight Champion who coached him during training. He also wanted to be in the ring against wrestlers his own age so DDT decided the match would be Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Takechi against Tetsuya Endo, Hideki Okatani & Takeshi Masada. These are all wrestlers considered by DDT to be part of the same generation. Takechi got to get time fighting each one of his three opponents during the match. He also got moments to do double team moves with his tag partners. He was able to land a Diving Cross Body to Endo and slam Masada with a Full Nelson Buster. The finish however came down to Ueno pinning Okatani with the Best Moonsault Ever.
With his team declared the winners, Takechi loudly proclaimed after the match that pro wrestling is the best! He said the power of everyone who came to support him is amazing and inspired him to do even better. There is still a lot he would like to do inside the ring so if he ever gets another chance he will take it. He didn’t appreciate how Okatani treated him during the match so he would like to fight him again. There are 15 other members of THE RAMPAGE so he hopes any of the DDT Fans who are impressed with him will take up an interest in following the group. The same goes for any of THE RAMPAGE’s fans if they liked what they saw from DDT today. Ueno teased that perhaps one day Takechi will fight him for the KO-D Title but he’ll have to work a little harder to get there. So this might not be the last we will see of Kaisei Takechi in DDT!
MAO’s adventure with the DDT Universal Title took him over to fight against a high level kickboxer. Hikaru Machida. The two had unfinished business over a KO-D Tag Team Titles defence one year ago and Machida was looking to avenge losing that match. A battle of strikes broke out and then the two fought outside the ring over by one of Korakuen’s staircases. Machida hit his patented Iai Punch but MAO reached for the ropes to avoid getting pinned. MAO then used a Stunner to break out of the strikes and pinned Machida with the Michinoku Driver II to win.
MAO was full of praise for Machida and then called himself the best DDT Universal Champion ever. He announced his plans to defend the title at “DDT GOES PHILADELPHIA!” in America on 4th April. However Takeshi Masada suddenly entered the ring with his own idea. He wants to win the title from MAO before they go to America so Masada will be the champion in Philadelphia. MAO told Masada he only has one rule for this championship. He only wants challengers he feels comfortable entrusting the title with should they beat him for it. He thinks that is too high of a hurdle for Masada to climb but if the fans want to see the match, he will agree to do it at DDT’s 27th Anniversary show on 17th March.
Today is Rukiya’s 23rd birthday so he was eager to do his best in his tag match. Yoshitatsu patronised him by giving him a pat on the head and rubbing his hair. Yukio Naya played his part to keep Rukiya in the fight. He hit Kazusada Higuchi with a Knee Lift so Rukiya could then do the Proto Bomb but Yoshitatsu made it in to break the pin. Naya then had to break the pin when Higuchi gave Rukiya the Doctor Bomb. Rukiya used what energy he had left to throw Elbow Strikes until Higuchi knocked him down with a Lariat and pinned him with the Brain Claw Slam.
To-y was supposed to take on HARASHIMA but unfortunately the match was cancelled because HARASHIMA tested positive for covid over the weekend. MJ Paul became To-y’s new opponent and he attacked him with a chair outside the ring. To-y rebounded and had Paul on the ropes when the rest of DAMNATION T.A decided to interfere. Thankfully To-y had Katsumata in his corner and he stopped KANON from doing a chair attack. To-y then rolled up Paul with a School Boy during the chaos and got the 3 count for the upset victory.
While Jun Akiyama was away in America this weekend wrestling in AEW, the other two members of D.O.A teamed with Toru Owashi to take on Kazuki Hirata’s new unit. Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor’s first match together was a successful one and it was a win against two-thirds of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions! The non-wrestling fans in Korakuen were given an eyeful thanks to Danshoku Dieno pulling the back of his tights down and laying himself over the top turnbuckle. Even Toru Owashi went above expectations by using the Lip Lock on Naruki Doi. A lot of wrestlers got their faces pressed against Dieno’s butt until Doi trapped Makoto Oishi with a Crucifix Pin to win the match.
Doi admitted it is shocking that Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor won their first match and it ended with him pinning a champion. That means they should get the next shot at the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles! Oishi argued that he is the weakest wrestler in DDT so Doi shouldn’t be proud of the result. Doi disagreed because Hirata is the weakest. Oishi won’t accept the challenge unless the other team puts something on the line. Doi suggested his team put their hair on the line but Oishi refused because they all have short cuts. Oishi then offered to disband Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor if they lose. Oishi thinks that idea is too much but Doi said he would be happy with either winning the titles or breaking up the team he doesn’t even want to be part of. The challenge was accepted and will take place on 17th March. Later backstage Shinya Aoki made demands for a rematch with Chihiro Hashimoto. He lost to Hashimoto on a DDT show at the end of December 2022 and wants revenge! DDT later announced that match will go ahead at the 7th April Korakuen show.
DAMNATION T.A also used a chair as a weapon to help set up their win against Akito & Soma Takao. After a ref bump, Daisuke Sasaki kicked Takao below the belt and then hit both opponents with the chair. Then Sasaki & KANON gave Takao the Freedom Call for the tainted win.
SCHADENFREUDE International found a convoluted way to win the opening match. But before that happened Antonio Honda got to tell his latest Gongitsune joke and engage in a twisted nipple battle with Yuki Iino. Later Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi physically manipulated Yuni & Ilusion into doing a Rolling Cradle on each other. CDK then piled on top of them to score the pinfall.
After the match Brookes told the fans he had a present for them and it is a dramatic dream that involves a friend of his. Out walked Zack Sabre Jr. from New Japan down to the ring! He is here because he wants to have a match in DDT! Brookes asked him who he would like to face. Sabre said Yoshihiko and the Ladder. Unfortunately Yoshihiko’s asking price is too high and the Ladder he’s thinking of has been retired for years. Sabre then said he would like to fight two champions so how about Yuki Ueno & MAO? Brookes can even team with him so it can be a tag match! Ueno & MAO heard the challenge and came down to the ring to accept it. It will happen on the 7th April Korakuen show.
DDT announced the next KO-D Title match after 17th March will be at Sumida Ward General Gymnasium on 26th April. Also Konosuke Takeshita will appear at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2024” at Sumo Hall on 21st July.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BEAT POWER ’24”, 24/02/2024
Osaka Edion Arena #2
349 Fans
1. Chika Nanase Debut Match: Moka Miyamoto defeated Chika Nanase with the Rashomon (4:39).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Pom Harajuku and Haru Kazashiro when Kamifuku pinned Kazashiro with the Famouser (6:44).
3. Juria Nagano defeated Kaya Toribami with the Senpukyaku (7:23).
4. Maki Itoh & Raku defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Shino Suzuki when Itoh submitted Suzuki with the Itoh Deluxe (13:00).
5. Bite Into The Sour And Sweet And Never Miss An Opportunity Rules: Hyper Misao defeated Nao Kakuta with a Gedo Clutch (10:01).
6. Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi & Mizuki defeated Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI & Toga when Mizuki pinned Uehara with the Diving Foot Stomp (13:54).
7. Miyu Yamashita, Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino Vs Miu Watanabe, Suzume & Arisu Endo ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
The main event was a preview for two of the big title matches being held at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”. It ended without a winner since the match lasted the entirety of the 20 minute time limit. The champion team were in trouble heading into the late end of the bout. Miu Watanabe held Miyu Yamashita in the Canadian Backbreaker and Arisu Endo hit Ryo Mizunami with the Mt. Bandai. However Yuki Aino blocked Suzume’s Ring A Bell and placed her in the Full Nelson Of Love And Flame instead. She tried to finish her off with the Venus DDT but Suzume fought her off until the bell rang for the finish. Aino didn’t expect Suzume to be so persistent but it made her look forward to the Sumo Hall tag match even more. Mizunami wanted to beat Daisy Monkey quickly so they can move on to Sumo Hall. Both Suzume & Endo told Yukiniki they will not lose. Neither will Yamashita, she said she is going to use all of her power to beat Watanabe.
The match between Hyper Misao and Nao Kakuta had a special rule attached to it. Whenever one of them reached for a rope break they would have to drink a glass of undiluted lemon juice within a time limit or be disqualified. The same rules were used two years ago during the last time Misao and Kakuta wrestled each other in a singles match. Kakuta won that match but Misao claims that since then she has learned about the depth of life by seperating the sweet and the sour. She proved it by beating Kakuta to avenge the loss from two years ago.
Maki Itoh picked up the win in her return to action. She told the fans she didn’t have much to do during her seven week break and if it wasn’t for pro wrestling she would be as good as dead. Today she feels alive again! She was so excited she only got one hour of sleep last night. Raku made up for it by getting 10 hours of sleep which is the perfect combined amount for two people.
For her last match in Osaka, Juria Nagano got her hand raised by beating Kaya Toribami. It just so happens to be her first ever singles match victory too! It’s been her goal since last year to win a singles match so she thinks all the hard word and strategy paid off. She is also happy she got to wrestle Toribami because she always got advice from her whenever they trained together.
The debut of Chika Nanase saw her lose to Moka Miyamoto by submission. She struggled to break past Miyamoto’s defence so only got to show off Elbow Strikes and Shoulder Blocks. Her big mistake came from trying to use a Body Slam but she was unable to lift Miyamoto with it. Miyamoto then turned things around and submitted Nanase with the Rashomon. Nanase described wrestling a real match feels different than being in a training match. She could clearly see the fans in the crowd supporting her and motivated her. She wants to grow into a pro wrestler who can make everyone smile.
At the start of the show it was announced that Yamashita will be going on another American tour in April after Tokyo Joshi Pro’s USA show happens on 5th April. The excursion will go on for over two months and her first match back in Japan will be on 15th June. She hopes to defend the Princess Of Princess Title against Watanabe at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24” so she can bring the belt with her and defend it across many different promotions in America.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2024 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 23/02/2024

2. Danshoku Dieno defeated Rukiya with the Oyashirazu (5:54).

*V1 for SCHADENFREUDE International & Mecha Mummy.
The business alliance of DDT’s management and RebelxEnemy was not powerful enough to dethrone SCHADENFREUDE International. With the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles on the line, the champions retained thanks to Antonio Honda in the end. It came down to Honda after Sanshiro Takagi got rid of Takeshi Masada with the Sling Blade and Stunner. Also Mecha Mummy’s drill failed against the toughness of Rina Yamashita. The bright spot for SCHADENFREUDE came when Chris Brookes Military Pressed Ram Kaichow out of the ring onto everyone on the floor below. Honda had to fight with Akito and came out the better of a back and forth exchange by pinning Akito with a Japanese Leg Lock Clutch. Honda thanked his team and told them they are all good men (or mecha in Mecha Mummy’s case). He admits he keeps losing and the thing he is losing most lately is the flow of time. He is 46 and that scares him. But he is able to win today’s match because of his friends. He doesn’t just mean SCHADENFREUDE International but also everyone who came to see the show today, especially those who bought merchandise! Backstage they all celebrated with drinks and splashed bottles of water over Honda. Some of it splashed onto Mummy though and it short circuited.
Meanwhile the RebelxEnemy wrestlers were mad at Takagi & Akito for losing the match. Maya Yukihi really wanted to win the titles and is so upset about losing it makes her want to cry. Kaichow put all of the blame on those two and even fired them! She doesn’t know what she is firing them from but they’re fired. Takagi pleaded with Kaichow to change her mind and offered her a new business partnership. Kaichow considered it depending on how much they will be paid for it. Takagi told her to discuss that with Akito and left him alone to deal with the negotiations. Akito didn’t know what to do so he told RebelxEnemy he will call them and then ran off. Kaichow told the others it’s no wonder why DDT only consists of men nowadays.
Two of the upcoming title matches were showcased in the semi-main event. It showed The 37KAMIINA are in good shape going against their challengers. HARASHIMA landed the Somato on Yuki Ueno but Ueno kicked out of the pin and fired back with a one legged Dropkick. Shunma Katsumata won the match in the end by catching Hideki Okatani with a standing Double Stomp to get the pinfall. Katsumata bragged about how well he’s been doing since returning from injury and he will keep the momentum going until he defends the DDT Extreme Title against Okatani. He wants Okatani to know that he can still wrestle without the need for weapons or death matches. HARASHIMA believes he is in great shape too even if the match result doesn’t reflect it.
Danshoku Dieno had a toothache going into his match against Rukiya and it bothered him throughout. Rukiya took advantage by using Headlocks and Elbow Strikes aimed at Dieno’s jaw. However Dieno countered one of the Headlocks into a Modified Armbar and Rukiya gave up. Dieno held onto the move after the match because the toothache was getting to him. Makoto Oishi had to get into the ring and get him to stop.
The new unit led by Kazuki Hirata now has a name. He is calling the group Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor! It combines a little bit of everything from the three members. Hirata is the Zuncha (rhythm of the beat), Naruki Doi is the Muscle and Shinya Aoki is the Survivor. He believes as long as the focus is on the two strong members Doi & Aoki, they won’t lose.

GANBARE☆PRO “GANPRO 2024 DESIRE”, 23/02/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall
329 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Shota defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Frog Splash (7:00).
2. HARUKAZE & Banny Oikawa defeated YuuRI & Riara when Oikawa pinned Riara with the Majin Windmill Suplex (11:23).
3. Ken Ohka, Mizuki Watase & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Keisuke Ishii, Soma Takao & Shinichiro Tominaga when Ohka pinned Tominaga with the Shin Spear Of Flame (9:39).
4. EVE International Title: Yuu (c) defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with a Katahajime (12:12).
*V11 for Yuu.
5. Yuna Manase Return Match: Sayaka Unagi & Minoru Fujita defeated Yuna Manase & Yumehito Imanari when Fujita pinned Manase with the Modified Samson Clutch (18:28).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Shuichiro Katsumura (c) defeated Takuya Wada with the Ninja Choke (14:09).
*V2 for Shuichiro Katsumura.
It’s full steam ahead as all the pieces for Ganbare☆Pro preparations to move into independent life continue falling into place. The championship scene currently belongs to Shuichiro Katsumura. He remains as GanPro’s double champion after he successfully defended the Spirit Of Ganbare Title against his tag team partner Takuya Wada. He told the fans afterwards he’s been friends with Wada for almost 30 years but haven’t gotten to fight him much. Today’s result proves that nobody is stronger than himself but if there’s anybody stronger than Wada then they should step forward. Soma Takao entered the ring but it wasn’t to challenge for the SOG Title. He invited Shota to enter beside him because ROMANCE DAWN want to fight GROUND ABSOLUTE for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles! Shota will be leaving GanPro to go freelance soon and Takao doesn’t know how often ROMANCE DAWN will get to team up here again in the future. In fact that may mean ROMANCE DAWN will soon become GanPro’s enemy. If they win the SOG Tag Titles then that means they can bring the belts wherever Shota decides to go next. GROUND ABSOLUTE accepted the challenge for 20th March.
A fully recovered Yuna Manase returned to the ring for her first match in around 13 months. She arrived in a new costume to team with Yumehito Imanari against Sayaka Unagi & Minoru Fujita. The opposing team carried their collection of championship belts with them to the ring. Unagi approached Manase to hug her but it was a trap and she bit her breast instead. That wasn’t the first time she did that. Manase fought back with Imanari at her side. She gave Fujita a Power Bomb and also kicked out of the SAYONARA Tombstone. Manase was at her limit throwing Elbow Strikes at Fujita but he wasn’t effected by them. Fujita then used the Modified Samson Clutch to roll her up for the three count. He congratulated Manase for her successful return and called her the symbol of GanPro. He then tried to pin Unagi for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title as they were leaving the ring but she kicked out and chased him out of the room. Two title changes back and forth did happen between them backstage after the show. Manase said she was happy how her return match went but she does not want the story to end with her losing. She asked Imanari to help her so they can beat Fujita & Unagi together.
A Camel Clutch version of the Katahajime ended Yoshiko Hasegawa’s hopes of winning the EVE International Title. After the match Yuu thanked Hasegawa for gathering together a big crowd on a big stage for them to wrestle at. Yuu hates it when she hears wrestlers talk about their growth but she thinks Hasegawa is passionate beyond words. Since Hasegawa is becoming a freelancer that means she is going to be Yuu’s rival from now on! Yuu will win more championships for Hasegawa to challenge her for and whenever Hasegawa becomes a champion, Yuu will come looking to be her first opponent.
The show began with Shinichiro Tominaga and HARUKAZE speaking to the fans. Tominaga became a full time member of GanPro this month but has been wrestling for the promotion since its beginning. He spent the last 11 years waiting for Ken Ohka to ask him to join the company. It wasn’t until GanPro started planning its split from CyberFight that he finally asked him! Tominaga said he thought about it for only 2 minutes before he accepted the offer. His moral of the story is if you have something to say to somebody important to you, let them know right away. HARUKAZE talked about Yokohama being her hometown and how her parents’ house is only a 10 minute drive away from the venue.

Dramatic DDT
