7. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Suzume defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Ring A Bell (13:49).

The Tokyo Princess Cup will be heading over to Osaka with four wrestlers left in the running. The bracket in its current form ended today at the Quarter Final stage with the winners advancing to a random draw that would pair off who would be against who in the Semi Finals. Suzume took down the most experienced tournament wrestler in today’s main event. Shoko Nakajima remains the only person to have competed in every single Princess Cup but will go another year without winning it for a second time. The two went back and forth looking for the victory. Nakajima took Suzume down with a Double Arm DDT but Suzume then grabbed onto her foot to slow her climb up to the top turnbuckle. Nakajima then used a 619 to knock her back down but Suzume got back up and used the ropes to stun Nakajima with an upthrust kick. Suzume then climbed up to Nakajima and slammed her down with a Flying Facecrusher before using the Ring A Bell to win the match. Suzume credited Nakajima for meaning so much to her as a wrestler because no matter how down Suzume ever felt about herself, she never thought she was weak because of her small size. So from now on, Suzume is going to believe in her own fighting style and fly around like a hornet this summer. Backstage Nakajima said Suzume will now have to go and win the whole tournament otherwise she will never let her step foot back into a wrestling venue or her house ever again!

For once when Hyper Misao said she was going to try and win fair and square she actually meant it. The history she has with Rika Tatsumi means too much for her to treat their match lightly. With that being said, she did use the Hero Spray to get out of a Dragon Sleeper but other than that is was a clean fight! Misao tried to use her rare Vanitas finisher but Tatsumi landed on her feet and Small Packaged Misao into the Dragon Sleeper again. Misao fought to reach the ropes until Tatsumi turned the move into the White Dragon Sleeper to make her opponent give up. Misao considers her attempt at creating a summer miracle failed but on the bright side she may have discovered some new techniques to use against Tatsumi in the future. She’s also happy that Tatsumi and herself are proving that Tokyo Joshi Pro’s original members are still going strong.

Yuki Aino has learned the hard way just how hot a blue flame can be compared to her own red flame. Toga is one of the two newest faces to reach the semi finals of the Princess Cup but took a bit of a beating to get there. Aino grabbed onto Toga’s wrist so she could keep pulling her into Shoulder Blocks over and over. She went too far with it and ended up getting knocked off her feet with the Elbow Smash. Toga then put her in a Muffler Hold and held it in such a way that she bending Aino backwards into giving up for a shock result. Aino always thought Toga had something special in her so she’s happy to see her finally deliver it today. She also thinks Toga will need more powerful weaons to give herself more confidence from now on. Aino gets that every year she says she will start over when she gets eliminated from the Princess Cup so this year she will instead grow even bigger than she is right now rather than go back to square one.

The other new face in the semi finals is HIMAWARI and she did it by taking out last year’s finalist Arisu Endo! HIMAWARI fought her way out of the Camel Clutch by dragging herself to reach a rope break with her foot instead of her hand. She then kept avoiding the Ju no Okite until she found an opening to give Endo the Sunflower Tempest to score the upset. This result is a hard one for Endo to accept compared to previous years. She had so many promises to live up to for people like Aja Kong, Suzume and Yuki Arai. This loss means none of them can come true yet for quite a while so she said she needs a little more time than usual to deal with it.

The semi final draw took place backstage after the show had ended. Rise Shirai gathered the final four together and had them pick a card from her hand. Those that matched colours would face each other in the next round. The result of that is Suzume versus HIMAWARI and Rika Tatsumi against Toga both happening on 16th August. Suzume was hoping to meet Endo in the finals like they both promised each other and now finds HIMAWARI to be rather scary for eliminating the other Daisy Monkey. HIMAWARI has connections to both members but is feeling the momentum of beating one of her seniors. Tatsumi has already climbed over her “Mountain Of Death” in this tournament and decided she wants to be that for Toga since this will be their first singles match against each other. Toga cannot predict what Tatsumi is going to do but her new version of the Muffler Hold was created specifically to beat her seniors so she is counting on that move to take her all the way to winning the Princess Cup.

It was announced at the start of the show that The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) will be holding an audition later this year to add a new member to their group. Maybe Yuki Kamifuku will be among the participants because she teamed up with most of the unit today and took part in all of their shenanigans. She even won the match for the team. It was all part of her retirement road though and she was happy to briefly experience what it is like to be an Up Up Girl as the “Denim Blue” member of the group. The actual The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) also announced they will be holding a solo concert at Shinjuku FACE on 20th September.

They think the start of the show is the best place for them to celebrate breaking the most title defences should they beat Strange Love Connection.

The middle of the show is going to get extreme because the DDT Extreme Title match between Hideki Okatani and Shunma Katsumata is going to be a Barbed Wire Death Match!

A lot more Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changes happened today. Right now Yuki Ishida is the one who can end up winning the Bullet Train pass if he makes it to Sumo Hall as the latest champion.

Shinjuku FACE

0. Dark Match ~ Brutal Grudge Final Showdown! Loser Retires Special: Tetsuya Koda Vs Hisaya Imabayashi
1. Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata Vs Soma Takao, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida

Things are getting drastic in the long running feud between Hisaya Imabayashi and Tetsuya Koda. All of their matches have previously taken place inside Shinjuku FACE so it is only fitting for them to blow off their feud in the same building before it shuts down. However to make it even more dramatic the loser has promised to immediately end their career!

BASARA “BASARA 314 ~UTAGE~”, 21/08/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. 4 Way Tag Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Daichi Kazato & Seiya Morohashi Vs Takato Nakano & Yasu Urano Vs Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita

3. Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) Vs Antonio Honda
4. Masato Kamino Vs Takeru Inoue
5. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura

To me this looks like a bunch of random matches on the BASARA undercard. However Takeru Inoue getting a singles match in the semi-main event might be important down the line if it is going to be positioned that way.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “FUCKED UP FEST 2026”, 22/08/2026
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR

1. Super P & Bear Ranger Vs Dr. Cube & Erebus

The inclusion of Super P to “FUCKED UP FEST” isn’t surprising because her band was already booked for the show. But the monsters of Kaiju Big Battel showing up too? I didn’t see that coming.

It is a couple of days before “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” and DDT went to Ikebukuro for an outdoor day of matches and contract signings. At first it looked like the matches held on the day would not have much circumstances to until the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title got dragged into things. First the title changed hands multiple times going from Ilusion to Yuni then back to Ilusion. He mocked the fans afterward for spending their free time on a Friday to be at this show and claimed to have hired 60 guards to protect him from losing the title before next week’s Sumo Hall show. However a brawl later broke out between a group of wrestlers all wanting to fight Ilusion. Masami Inahata put him in an Argentine Backbreaker to win the title but he would end up losing it in the main event to Takeshi Masada. After all of that, Yuki Ishida sneakily pinned Masada after the match to win the title and still have it by the night’s end.

Contract signings were held throughout the day for the big matches happening at Sumo Hall. MAO talked about getting to fight Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title again. In the past DDT was defined by the HARASHIMA/KUDO era, the Kota Ibushi/Kenny Omega era and the Konosuke Takeshita/Tetsuya Endo era. Right now it’s just the Yuki Ueno era so by winning this match MAO gets to add his name next to Ueno and everyone will know which two wrestlers were leading this era of DDT. MAO also wants to be at his most dazzling for the match so he has changed his hair back to an old hairstyle and is confident he can unleash 200% of his pro wrestling because Ueno is his opponent. Ueno said he enjoyed the matches he’s had with MAO in the last month and it’s hard to put into words how much joy it’s given him. If MAO is that motivated to reach the level Ueno is at now it only motivates Ueno to beat him and climb even higher. It’s all so he can help bring DDT to the Tokyo Dome.

Konosuke Takeshita had taken time away from the G1 CLIMAX to appear at this event and hype up his match with Kaisei Takechi. According to Takechi, 99% of his fans are expecting Takeshita to win but he is going to put his whole life on the line for the 1% that believe he will win. Hearing that, Takeshita promised to put everything he’s learned in his 14 year career into his match against Takechi. He also ensures he will be at 100% and he isn’t feeling fatigue from fighting in the G1.

Perhaps there is a future in store for Kazuma Sumi and Ryusuke Taguchi as tag team partners after their DDT Universal Title match. Taguchi wanted to study his opponent in the lead up to the show and thankfully he discovered Wrestle Universe offers a week long free trial. He still hasn’t gotten around to using it yet but he encourages everyone go use the offer to watch Sumi use him as a stepping stone. Taguchi hasn’t found a tag partner for the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League so he suggests maybe Sumi can team up with him and get the same haircut so they can become The Buzz Cut Brothers. Sumi did subscribe to NJPW World so he could study Taguchi but he can’t grasp what his weaknesses are yet. He also doesn’t want to shave his head to a buzz cut again because he did it once before for a drama role and everyone around him at the time thought he did something wrong and got his head shaved to apologise for it. He will consider Taguchi’s idea to team up though. After they signed the contract Taguchi hit Sumi with a Hip Attack but Sumi got him back by giving him a Kancho butt poke.

The DDT Extreme Title match now has a stipulation and it is a dangerous one. Hideki Okatani believes simply having a Hardcore match with Shunma Katsumata again would be underwhelming so he decided they are going to have a Barbed Wire Death Match! Katsumata ran down the history of Hardcore matches he previously had with Okatani and said he feels incredibly happy to be such a special person in Okatani’s heart. He thinks he is the only who can motivate Okatani to bring out his real self and will beat the real Okatani to win the Extreme Title. Even though Okatani is the champion, he is treating this match like he is the challenger and he thinks the fans will see something amazing at Sumo Hall.

HARASHIMA announced he will become a PR ambassador to promote Ome City later this year. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise, the name Ome has been in FANTÔMES DRAMATIC all along!

*To-y wins Viento Levante’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.

Next week DDT will be back in Sumo Hall for their big show of the summer. Today’s show was pretty much a last chance for everyone to get ready for Ryogoku. The main event served as a preview for both the KO-D Openweight Title match as well as the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. And just for a little bit extra, the result meant one of the Right To Challenge Gauntlets changed hands as well. Strange Love Connection focused a bit too much on the paleyouth although MAO’s target was Yuki Ueno. It was the The 37KAMIINA that made the difference but barely so. To-y was able to counter a double team move from MAO & Viento Levante and through that counter pinned Levante to win the match. That means To-y now holds a Gauntlet that he could cash in on Ueno if he wanted to. Ueno asked him to wait until after “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” because he’s looking forward wrestling MAO for the title first. MAO warned Ueno that he’s become so strong he might hurt him. He cannot stand in the ring unless he becomes the KO-D Champion but at least he’ll have fun while beating Ueno. Takeshi Masada then warned that paleyouth will be looking to crush Levante at Sumo Hall.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions are feeling mixed over their match today. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC lost but HARASHIMA noted that neither he nor Chris Brookes took the fall against Junta Miyawaki. HARASHIMA wonders just how much Miyawaki and Shinya Aoki have both grown but he also expects the title match at Ryogoku will be fun. Aoki overheard him say that backstage and accused HARASHIMA of becoming complacent. Miyawaki said he wants to beat HARASHIMA for the titles and then walk down the RIZIN entrance aisle with Aoki carrying the KO-D Tag Title belts!

Kazuki Hirata offered to help Danshoku Dieno get ready for YAMATO because beating Hirata in only a couple of seconds doesn’t prepare anybody for much. He knows YAMATO hates the Danshoku style so he came up with an idea to have Dieno chase him around the ring, thinking it will improve Dieno’s speed to use against YAMATO. Hirata also had a trick up his sleeve to wrap tape around Dieno’s tights so he couldn’t remove them and do the Danshoku Driver. Dieno could still use the Lip Lock though and ended up catching Hirata with the move.

The other standard Right To Challenge Gauntlet changed hands when Hideki Okatani pinned Shunma Katsumata in a tag match. This came after the two fought each other with chairs while Daisuke Sasaki rendered Masami Inahata useless with a Low Blow. Okatani got the better of Katsumata and now has a Gauntlet he can cash in.

The longstanding feud of the GMs could be heading towards a thrilling finale. Tetsuya Koda showed up to team with wrestlers from DAMNATION T.A, which means today he was DAMNATION T.K! was able to defend the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title against Hisaya Imabayashi in a 6-Man Tag Match. But after the match Imabayashi faked a handshake to kick Koda below the belt and knock him down with the Uraken Backfist. Imabayashi won the belt and told Koda that all of their matches against each other going back to August 2017 have happened in Shinjuku FACE. Since the building is shutting down soon Imabayashi challenged Koda to a final showdown in the venue on the 14th August Beer Garden show. Koda accepted and told Imabayashi to hold onto the title because not only does Koda want the belt back but the loser should immediately retire! Imabayashi accepted the challenge only for Ilusion to suddenly roll him over and pin him to win the Iron Man Title.

The paleyouth and SLC teams involved in the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles match had a contract signing ceremony at the start of the show. Yukio Naya said he is putting his entire support towards Levante winning the match for their team so he can prove he is not weak. KANON is more focused on stopped paleyouth from breaking the record for most KO-D 6-Man Tag Title defences. The reason is KANON currently ties the record with paleyouth. Levante admitted his talk has been week leading up to the match and he feels he has no choice but to win. Masada made a request to DDT that the match be placed as the opening bout for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” because he thinks paleyouth breaking the most defences record would be a special moment for the show. Yuya Koroku heard about KANON’s goal in the match and made it his mission to target him in order to break the record. Daichi Sato wants to outshine Naya in the match so that whenever wrestling fans think of heavyweights in DDT, they will think of Sato instead of Naya. All of paleyouth (including Bunbun) promised to work harder than ever before.

The Tokyo Idol Festival is over and Tetsuya Koda has come out of it as the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. The Tokyo Joshi Pro boss pulling off this stunt does not impress the DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi. The two authority figures have been at each other’s throats on and off for years. The Iron Man Champion is meant to be wrestling on tomorrow’s DDT show which means Koda now has to take part. Such an idea is insulting to Imabayashi so he is adding himself to the match in response to this so he can teach Koda a lesson that DDT is not the place for amateurs in their fifties!

Going into tomorrow’s show the Right To Challenge holders are Shunma Katsumata (Red), Viento Levante (Blue) and KANON (Purple).

6. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Arisu Endo Vs HIMAWARI
7. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Rika Tatsumi Vs Hyper Misao

We’re currently on a little break from the Tokyo Princess Cup until it resumes with the Quarter Finals this weekend. Rika Tatsumi and Hyper Misao are back in the ring against each other so soon after their Princess Tag Team Titles feud last month. The other end of the bracket has Suzume against Shoko Nakajima in what is sure to be a barnburner. HIMAWARI can set off a Cinderella run if she can defeat last year’s finalist Arisu Endo. The same could be said for Toga if her frozen demeaner doesn’t melt against Yuki Aino’s fire. After this round the brackets will get jumbled up for the final four which makes predicting this round a little bit more difficult than it looks on paper.

DDT “KANDA MYOJIN CULTURAL EXCHANGE PRESENTS AFTER PETER PAN ~RYOGOKU AFTER PARTY~”, 17/08/2026
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall

1. New Generation Variety Team Discovery Audition Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuki Ishida Vs Rukiya Vs Masami Inahata Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Super Sasadango Machine Title: Super Sasadango Machine (c) Vs Ilusion

I think there have been times in the past when Muscle Sakai would defend the championship belt he wears around his waist but I can’t remember a time when Super Sasadango Machine has ever done it in DDT. That changes when the belt labelled King Of Sasadango it put on the line against Ilusion.

The DDT comedy wrestlers are looking for new additions to their “Variety Team”. They are holding an audition and it is mandatory for the wrestlers they invited to take part in it.

This DDT show is going to be a small one because it is more like a fan event with some matches taking place rather than a full on wrestling show. Only one more match is planned to be added to the card.

BASARA “BASARA 314 ~UTAGE~”, 21/08/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura

The new Union MAX Champion already has challengers lined up for him. When Takumi Tsukamoto held a 7-match Gauntlet to prepare himself for his title shot the only wrestler he dropped a fall to was Daiki Shimomura. Now is the time for Shimomura to call his shot and get a title match with his former tag team partner.

1. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Sumire Natsu & Mifu Ashida
2. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: X Vs X

This doesn’t look like it would be a tough challenge for Ober Eats. After all, Yuki Kamifuku already knows how effective it is to use makeup remover against opponents who are caked in the stuff. Sumire Natsu is like 80% makeup and 20% human at this point! Best stick Wakana Uehara and Mifu Ashida in there to make sure things don’t get too catty between Kamiyu and Natsu.

6. East Vs West Showdown: HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) defeated Jun Akiyama (Osaka) & Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima) when Honda pinned Dieno with the Diving Fist Drop (11:33).
7. East Vs West Showdown ~ Special Tag Match: MAO (Miyagi/Captain) (w/ KIMIHIRO (Tokyo)) & Shinya Aoki (Shizuoka) defeated Yuki Ueno (Osaka/Captain) & Sanshiro Takagi (Osaka) when MAO pinned Takagi with the Cannonball 450° (17:45).

Today’s show in Osaka split the DDT locker room into two teams based on the east and west sides of Japan. The series went into a main event tied at three wins a piece. The contest became so heated at this point that even the referees started to pick sides. Yukinori Matsui started favoring the West Team so Daisuke Kiso felt the need to get in his way to make sure the East Team wouldn’t have the disadvantage for long. It led to wrestlers from all sides getting involved in train attacks. Sanshiro Takagi lost track of who was on his team so he gave Stunners to both Yuki Ueno and MAO. Ueno was then hit with a Topé Suicida from Shinya Aoki while MAO recovered and went on to pin Takagi with the Cannonball 450°.

After the match MAO put aside the East Vs West contest to talk about the earthquake that happened in Kumamoto last week. He remembers the support Miyagi received from all over Japan back in 2011 so he called for everyone to unite as a nation. Yuki Ishida also spoke about his hometown Yatsushiro City suffering a lot of damage from the earthquake and it leaves him feeling angry at himself for being unable to do anything about it. All he can do is hope how hard he fights in the ring can give Kumamoto even a little bit of encouragement.

The Anytime Anywhere Anytime Anywhere Gauntlet changed hands again. Now KANON is the holder of the purple Gauntlet after he pinned Rukiya in the opener.

At the end of the show Naomi Yoshimura announced he is going to have a match on 4th October to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of his debut. He wants it to be a singles match because he already has a certain opponent in mind.

2. Miyu Yamashita, Sakura Hattori & Marika Kobashi (w/ Marina Kumamoto) defeated HIMAWARI, Toga & Chika Nanase (w/ Sayonara Stay Tuned & ChumToto) when Yamashita pinned Nanase with the Attitude Adjustment (13:01).

-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Miyu Yamashita defeated Marina Kumamoto (c) by Forfeit after Yamashita’s Skillful Negotiation Tactics (12:23 pm).
*Miyu Yamashita becomes the 1,871st champion.

The final day of the Tokyo Idol Festival had everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro looking for excuses to cool down. Several of the matches held throughout the day turned into water fights and the wrestlers also advised the fans to stay hydrated so they could enjoy the festival to its fullest.

It looked like Miyu Yamashita would last through the day without worrying about anybody taking the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from her but at the end of the morning session everybody in the ring piled on top of her to try and win it. Yamashita was pinned and when the bodies all seperated it turned out that Marina Kumamoto from Niji no Conquistador was directly on top of Yamashita for the pinfall and was now the champion. Yamashita then successfully convinced her to forefit the title back to her because Kumamoto was paranoid that one of the other ten members of Niji no Conquistador would attack her for the belt during their one of their live performances.

*Tetsuya Koda becomes the 1,876th champion.

Another title change happened during the downtime in between shows. Raku found Yamashita backstage looking tired so she lulled her into taking a nap with a lullaby and pinned her to win the title. Raku then wanted to sing a lullaby after the main event so Aya Kajishima from The Up Up Girls (2) played her a tune using her nose on a recorder. The music made Raku lie down and Kajishima suddenly pinned her by pressing her down with the recorder. She thought she won the title but instead the referee decided the Recorder is the champion instead! Kajishima quickly pinned the Recorder to win the belt but Pom Harajuku then Shin Kicked her to win the title for herself.

Later that evening when all of the wrestling shows were completed, Harajuku was ready to go home. But as she was leaving the locker room, Pokotan appeared and attacked her, using the Ultra-Low Altitude Finally to pin her and take the championship. However Pokotan then removed its head in front of the referee to reveal it was actually Tetsuya Koda in disguise!

Miu Watanabe brought back The Giant Swing Experience Project from Day 1 and invited Niikura Ami from The Up Up Girls (2) to take part. Watanabe spun her around seven times which was a surprise for Ami because she was told she was only getting five spins. Watanabe said she got extra spins to get her in the mood for her singing performance later.

6. Union MAX Title – Clutch Supporters Association Presents: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Shuji Ishikawa (c) with the Zudon (18:41).
*Shuji Ishikawa fails in V5. Takumi Tsukamoto becomes the 25th Union MAX Champion!

After eight months the Union MAX Title is now back around the waist of a BASARA wrestler. Takumi Tsukamoto kicked out of the Giant Driver and went on to pin Shuji Ishikawa with the Zudon to cause the title change. There were no hard feelings over the result and Ishikawa wrapped the title around Tsukamoto after the match. The new champion said when he stepped into the ring today it felt like his opponent was 4 metres tall but a real man always wants to hunt the big ones. Tsukamoto told Ishikawa he was the first person he ever had a Lighttube Death Match with and today he is happy to beat him in an important Korakuen Hall main event. He also thanked him for doing his part to make BASARA more exciting over the last year.

Tsukamoto invited the rest of the BASARA locker room into the ring for the closing speech. Ryota Nakatsu brought up the upcoming closure of Shinjuku FACE next month and reminded everyone the venue held BASARA’s first show ten years ago. He challenged Tsukamoto for the MAX Title at BASARA’s final show in Shinjuku FACE on 23rd September. However, Daiki Shimomura interrupted him and said that date is still a while away. He brought up how he was the only person to beat Tsukamoto in Tsukamoto’s 7-Match Trial last month so he should be getting a title shot first. Tsukamoto agreed to put the MAX Title on the line against Shimomura in Shin-Kiba 1st RING on 21st August. The winner and therefore the champion will then go on to defend the title against Nakatsu at September’s Shinjuku FACE show.

Aijin Tag are marching on towards their goal of breaking the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles record for most defences. They are now at five wins after beating Yankee Two Kenji. The win came from Masato Kamino giving Isami Kodaka a Lariat before Kodaka could lift up Takato Nakano for a Power Bomb. Then while Kamino took care of Yuko Miyamoto, Nakano climbed the top turnbuckle and hit the Takagari on Kodaka for the three count. Kamino called it a decisive win which means Aijin Tag has now surpassed Yankee Two Kenji! Miyamoto admitted the goal he and Kodaka put forth today was quite high for them to reach. They’re both becoming old men but they are still going out there because they are strong.

Former rivals and classmates from the DNA days met each other again when Nakatsu took on Shunma Katsumata. Since this match was happening in BASARA that meant Katsumata’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet was not on the line (the rule was changed to being DDT exclusive a few years ago). The match came close to ending in a Double Knockout but they both got back up to continue fighting until Nakatsu won by using the V Slider. Nakatsu later said he was really grateful that Katsumata wrestled here today given that he is also booked for a DDT show in Osaka later this evening. He thinks it was fun to have two people who have worked so hard in the last ten years clash against each other.
