DDT “CHARISMANIA IV”, 02/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. Fake Brahman Army Vs Mataro Army All-Out Confrontation: Fake Brahman Yuki, Fake Brahman Yuki & Fake Brahman Yuki Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Takayuki Ueki & Takeshi Masada (w/ Mataro)
2. Yasu Urano & Sangre Azteca Jr. Vs Naohiro Katsumi & Yunicaras Jr. (w/ Sumicaras)
3. Special Single Match: MJ Paul Vs Ryunosuke Nagai
4. Special Tag Match: Minoru Fujita & Ilusion Vs Ayato Ishida & Gabai Ji-chan
5. DDT Extreme Title: Hideki Okatani (c) Vs Yuko Miyamoto
6. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs Keisuke Ishii
Coming out of the weekend Hideki Okatani is now on a roll as the DDT Extreme Champion. His next defence has Daisuke Sasaki’s stamp of approval included because he is bringing in Yuko Miyamoto to be the challenger on this show.
We previously had a luchador named Yunicaras on these kind of shows but he got unmasked the last time he was here. I bet Yunicaras Jr. is a completely different person. No way would it be Yuni just coming back as another incognito luchador again. That would just ruin Sumicaras’s reputation and be an insult to Sangre Azteca Jr.
The match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet.
DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2026 IN SHINJUKU 【FINAL COUNTDOWN 2】”, 16/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
A tag team title war has broken out between FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and paleyouth. Both sides have championships and they agreed to defend the belts against each other this July. First up is paleyouth defending the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles and they only need one more win to break the record for most defences in a single reign. They have already beaten Fandora back in April but that was when the winless Hinata Kasai was on the challenger team. This time Antonio Honda is taking his place.
DDT “ROCK IN RING 2026 ~ONE HIT KILL~”, 26/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA (c) Vs Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku
Then a week and a half later it will be Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA putting the KO-D Tag Team Titles on the line against Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku. Brookes thinks Masada would be better off teaming with Daichi Sato instead but Masada & Koroku recently debuted their own tag team finisher. This new weapon called The Roar For Tomorrow Created By Me And Yuya might be the extra step needed for paleyouth to dominate the tag division.

DDT “S.L.C. VS DHAOS ALL-OUT SHOWDOWN”, 21/06/2026
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference
0 Fans
1. 1st Floor: Danshoku Dieno defeated MAO with a Lariat (8:33).
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – 2nd Floor: Kazuki Hirata (c) defeated Yukio Naya with a One-Winged Angel (7:58).
*V? for Kazuki Hirata.
3. 3rd Floor: KANON defeated Antonio Honda with the Spinning Reverse Anal Gongitsune (7:02).
4. 4th Floor: Yuki Iino defeated Toru Owashi with a Dragonrana (2:15).
5. 5th Floor: Super Sasadango Machine Vs Viento Levante ended in a Time Limit Draw (30:00).
I don’t know what happened here but the group of wrestlers facing Strange Love Connection in the 10-Man Tag Match today had formed their own group called DHAOS. The two sides then had a series of matches before the show that took place all over the building, one match on every floor. None of the matches were filmed but DDT tweeted out the results and some photos but with little context added to them. The joke is a bunch of crazy things happened during these matches inside rooms and hallways that are hardly big enough to fit three people inside them. The series ended in a tie with each team winning twice and the final bout ending in a time limit draw so everyone agreed to use the 10-Man Tag Match happening later as the decider. However there was now an added stipulation of Mask Contra Mask. Whichever team lost meant either Super Sasadango Machine or Viento Levante would have to unmask as punishment!
Also before today’s show, Kazuki Hirata broke into Danshoku Dieno’s locker room in search of Dieno’s wrestling gear. He found the pair of Danshoku Dieno’s Tights that won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title yesterday and pinned it in the room to win back the belt. Dieno then caught Hirata trespassing while he was getting out of the shower but Hirata escaped with the belt.
DDT “OWARI WARS 2026”, 21/06/2026
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Akito defeated Hinata Kasai with a Scorpion Death Lock (8:49).
2. Special Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & Kumadori defeated Yuni & Yuki Ishida when Kumadori pinned Yuni with the Spinning Senton (8:05).
3. Jun Akiyama & Rukiya defeated Naomi Yoshimura & Masami Inahata when Rukiya pinned Inahata with the R. Fisherman Buster (6:47).
4. S.L.C. Vs DHAOS All-Out Showdown ~ 6th Floor – Final Showdown: MAO, KANON, Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Viento Levante defeated Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine, Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda when Levante pinned Sasadango with the Running Diving Headbutt (8:55).
5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) defeated Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion when Masada pinned Ilusion after The Roar For Tomorrow Created By Me And Yuya (13:51).
*V5 for paleyouth.
6. DDT Extreme Title – Hardcore I Quit Match: Hideki Okatani (c) defeated Junta Miyawaki when Miyawaki said “I Quit” (16:20).
*V2 for Hideki Okatani.
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA (c) defeated Yuki Ueno & To-y when HARASHIMA pinned To-y with the Swan Dive Somato (18:52).
*V2 for FANTÔMES DRAMATIC.
What a false prophet this “Prince Of Nagoya” turned out to be. After spending weeks claiming to be from a future where he won the KO-D Tag Team Titles on today’s show, To-y wasn’t able to live up to his word. He and Yuki Ueno almost had Chris Brookes beaten when they gave him the My MADMAX but HARASHIMA broke up the count. Ueno was there to save To-y by the skin of his teeth when he broke up a pinfall after HARASHIMA hit the Somato. But Brookes made sure Ueno couldn’t do it again and HARASHIMA landed the Swan Dive Somato onto To-y for the successful title defence. There is something nice that To-u got out of the match. Since Brookes is a “Baka Gaijin”, he admitted that whenever he calls To-y an idiot he means it as a compliment. He encourages To-y to keep up with that foolish spirit of his.
HARASHIMA called out for any team to come challenge him and Brookes next. Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku from paleyouth answered him and said they are greedy enough to add KO-D Tag Titles to the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles they retained earlier in the show. Brookes suggested that Masada & Daichi Sato are the better pairing but HARASHIMA accepted Koroku’s challenge. Antonio Honda then got into the ring demanding that paleyouth give FANTÔMES DRAMATIC another shot at the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles to make it a fair deal between the two groups. Sato agreed and Akito as the acting GM for the day got to book both title matches. The KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles match will happen first on 16th July. Then the KO-D Tag Titles match will take place on 26th July.
The pressure and mounting odds got to Junta Miyawaki and he was made to say “I Quit” by Hideki Okatani. It was a Hardcore I Quit Match so the two attacked each other with chairs and keyboards. Miyawaki had to fight off the other members of DAMNATION T.A and was able to put Okatani through a table. Okatani wouldn’t quit though and used an exposed turnbuckle to add more damage to his Skewered Claymore finisher. From there did a chair assisted Diving Foot Stomp onto Miyawaki’s legs, used the loose tag ropes to tie Miyawaki’s hands behind his back and then beat him over and over with table scraps and the bamboo sword until Miyawaki said “You Win” out loud.
After the match Okatani told Miyawaki this is what being extreme is like and it must have been the most exciting day in his life. He will never win the DDT Extreme Title but Okatani respects Miyawaki for being willing to step into the ring with the intention of changing something inside of him. Daisuke Sasaki then grabbed the microphone off Okatani because he had an announcement to make. Okatani will be defending the Extreme Title at “CHARISMANIA IV” on 2nd July and his opponent has already been chosen by Sasaki. It will be Yuko Miyamoto! Okatani suddenly remembered one time when Miyamoto threw him into a pond at Ueno Park so he promises to get revenge on him for that. Sasaki had another announcement to make later backstage. He will be revealing his tag team partner for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” on 28th June.
paleyouth are now just one win away from tying the record for most successful KO-D 6-Man Tag Title defences in a single reign. They all recovered from yesterday’s DAMNATION T.A just to continue getting assaulted by Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion. But when Ilusion decided to wrap the three title belts around him and climb up top to finish the match, Masada dodged the Swanton Bomb and joined forces with Koroku to unveil their new double team finisher called The Roar For Tomorrow Created By Me And Yuya. It is a German Suplex from Koroku that gets extra impact with the Manburi by Masada.
The 10-Man Tag Match was being taken a bit more seriously by SLC and DHAOS now that some masks were being put on the line. Levante successfully protected his by scoring the win over Sasadango. He then unmasked him after the match to reveal Sasadango is Muscle Sakai! The other members of DHAOS all turned on Sakai and banished him from the group as punishment for losing. They then attacked him until SLC chased them all off. After being rescued, Sakai/Sasadango was then offered a part time spot in SLC as a Nagoya only member. So he now gets to team with SLC but only when they have a match held in Nagoya.
Yuki Ishida spoke to DDT cameras at the end of the evening while deconstructing the ring with the rest of the crew. He said that the feeling of wanting to change and the feeling of needing to change are both growing stronger within him. He then kept repeating over and over that he is going to change…

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2026 ~NEXT DOOR~ IN NAGOYA”, 21/06/2026
Aichi Chunichi Hall
444 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Toga & Chika Nanase when Kazashiro pinned Nanase with the Fisherman Suplex (10:13).
2. 3 Way Match: Sakura Hattori defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Hattori pinned Harajuku and Kiryu with a Simultaneous School Boy (8:00).
3. Mizuki & Uta Takami defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Diving Foot Stomp (9:36).
4. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer when Suzume pinned Summer with the Ring A Bell (11:03).
5. Hyper Misao defeated Miu Watanabe with a School Boy (4:52).
6. Rika Tatsumi Vs Shoko Nakajima ended in a Time Limit Draw (15:00).
7. Yuki Arai & Ren Konatsu defeated Miyu Yamashita & Shion Kanzaki when Konatsu pinned Kanzaki with the Aries Comet (14:32).
Ren Konatsu has entered her second year as a pro wrestler by returning to the venue of her debut and winning in the main event for the first time! She got to beat her junior Shion Kanzaki with the Aries Comet while Yuki Arai used a Full Nelson Buster to make sure Miyu Yamashita was out of the way. Konatsu said she wants to team up with Arai a lot more as well as also have matches against her. The way Arai praised Konatsu after the match makes Konatsu think she has now gone from Arai’s fan into Arai’s angel. As for the upcoming title match, Arai thinks today was an important warmup because she got to show Yamashita her true potential. She wants to master the Scorpion Death Lock and is thinking carefully of different ways to put Yamashita in it in every match they will be in together.
The two Daydream Vs Kyoraku Kyomei singles matches couldn’t have turned out any differently. Rika Tatsumi and Shoko Nakajima fought each other to a 15 minute stalemate where Tatsumi’s tactical wrestling clashed with Nakajima’s speedy style. The other match devolved into chaos pretty quickly. Hyper Misao tried to leave when she realized it was meant to be a preliminary bout for the Princess Tag Team Titles match that her team still denies is going to happen. However she was already locked in the room and had to wrestle the match. Miu Watanabe wrapped Misao up in the ring apron and gave her the Giant Swing on the floor. Misao blinded Watanabe with the Hero Spray and started detaching the turnbuckle posts to use as weapons. Watanabe ended up charging right into an exposed buckle and was rolled back into a School Boy to get pinned by Misao. Kyoraku Kyomei still hold the contract for the title match and Nakajima pointed out that if she cannot beat Tatsumi one on one then she clearly isn’t ready to fight for the tag titles right now. On the other side, Tatsumi cannot believe that Watanabe lost her match so she ordered her to go train at a gym by herself without using her Hot Pepper app points to make the reservation. Tatsumi doesn’t need to join the training because a draw is not a loss. She also doesn’t believe Nakajima when she says now is not the right time to do the title match.
While Japan was beating Tunisia 4-0 in the World Cup, Mahiro Kiryu brought along a gigantic football so she could play the sport with her opponents in the 3 Way Match. She also had red and yellow cards prepared for Daisuke Kiso to use if anyone committed a foul (that blew up in her face when Kiso booked her for being too aggressive towards him). Pom Harajuku wasn’t interested in playing and Sakura Hattori threw the ball away but both of them were eventually drawn into Kiryu’s game. Harajuku threw the ball around which made Kiryu stop the match so she could show her how to play properly. The two then tried to kick the ball into the red corner goal but Hattori used her ninja skills to save almost every shot. She finally let one in by accidentally leaving an open goal but then remembered they were in a wrestling match so she rolled both opponents over with a Double School Boy for the win. At least Kiryu and Harajuku got more shots on goal than Tunisia did.

DDT “TROPICAL NANIWAN SUMMER 2026”, 20/06/2026
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Yuki Ishida defeated Hinata Kasai with the Flame Palm (9:03).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Danshoku Dieno’s Tights defeated Kazuki Hirata (c) by Pinfall (5:31 pm).
*Danshoku Dieno’s Tights become the 1833rd champion.
2. Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Koroku pinned Hirata with an Elbow Butt (10:17).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Akito, Junta Miyawaki, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuni when Okatani pinned Yuni with the Skewered Claymore (11:06).
4. MAO, KANON & Yukio Naya defeated Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata when KANON pinned Rukiya with the Lariat (13:32).
5. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada defeated Viento Levante with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (10:28).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs FANTÔMES DRAMATIC!: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when To-y pinned Honda with the Kojima Impact (18:28).
The “Prince Of Nagoya” is one day away from coming home and after today he is feeling pretty good about his chances of winning the KO-D Tag Team Titles tomorrow. He was put in an Octopus Hold by Antonio Honda but Yuki Ueno broke it up with a Shining Wizard. Then the two of them gave Honda the My MADMAX before To-y finished him off with the Kojima Impact. Afterwards To-y talked on the microphone about enjoying these kind of intense matches because he is the strongest. However, Chris Brookes brought him back down to Earth by reminding him that he is the only wrestler in the title match tomorrow who is not already a champion. Ueno cheered To-y up by giving him a prediction for the next East Vs West themed show taking place in Osaka this August. Ueno predicts he and To-y will cross boundaries together and fight for the tag titles on that show! To-y thought about going one further by giving a prediction of his own but stopped himself, deciding to live in the present instead.
All of paleyouth were attacked by DAMNATION T.A after Match #5. Ilusion gave Takeshi Masada a Low Blow while Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul attacked everyone with chairs. Ilusion got on the microphone to demand Masada hand the belts over and start his career over as a trainee. He then knocked out Masada with a belt shot to the head. The three paleyouth wrestlers all had to be helped out of the ring after the attack.
The bright and energetic Junta Miyawaki might be met with a cold reality tomorrow. After his match he said he wants to win the DDT Extreme Title from Hideki Okatani because it looks so shiny. Without much emotion Okatani told Miyawaki he is just somebody who does not know when to give up. So for tomorrow’s I Quit match he will not even allow Miyawaki to give up!
The attack on paleyouth was part of an unlucky day for Yuya Koroku. He thought he had won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title earlier in the show when he beat Kazuki Hirata in a tag match. Danshoku Dieno was part of the match and he stripped out of his tights during it. Hirata grabbed the tights and tried to smother Koroku with them but Koroku defended himself and knocked down Hirata with an Elbow Strike. He jumped on top for the pin and got the three count but was not rewarded with the championship. Yukinori Matsui noticed the pair of tights was beneath Koroku and on top of Hirata during the pin so he decided it was Danshoku Dieno’s Tights that pinned Hirata and won the Iron Man Title!

6. No Referee Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs MAO
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Shinya Aoki
During the week MAO ran over Sanshiro Takagi in a van for the fourth time in six years. The officiating whenever that happens during matches leaves a lot to be desired and Takagi has lost all faith in the DDT referees ever doing anything about it. So for Takagi’s upcoming match with MAO in Korakuen Hall there will not be any referees involved at all! Instead it will be up to the audience to count the pinfalls in unison and if the majority get to three in sync, that will decide the winner. Other than that the match will be No DQ and have no countouts. We cannot trust a room of 1,000 people to all be able to count up to 20 by themselves at the same time without the proper guidance present.
GANBARE☆PRO “ENTER THE VOID 2026”, 04/07/2026

2. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Baliyan Akki

4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs SUSHI
SUSHI last wrestled for Ganbare☆Pro in April and was led to believe he would be booked for more shows with the promotion. That never happened and he’s been left out in the cold until he appeared at the most recent show demanding an explanation while pleading for a booking. Nobody expected he would be getting a Spirit Of Ganbare World Title shot out of it. Mizuki Watase doesn’t appreciate his bosses not living up to any promises they make to others so he agreed to wrestle SUSHI and put his championship on the line.
Watase’s decision to do that match has pushed back his plan to challenge The Deadlock for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles. That gives Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima the chance to step in and grab the shot for themselves.

It’s a match made in heaven for Sakura Hirota’s debut in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Throw her in there with Raku & Pom Harajuku then watch the magic happen. Given her talents when it comes to impersonating wrestlers, Hirota could show up as any of the other wrestlers in the match. She can get a yarn wig for HIMAWARI, ruffle some newspaper pages together to make Mifu Ashida’s pom-poms or cover herself in orange wallpaper in order to become Chika Nanase.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’26”, 18/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Aja Kong Vs Arisu Endo
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Wakana Uehara
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita
A contract signing ceremony took place today for the three championship matches taking place at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’26” next month. Miyu Yamashita talked about how long its been since she last challenged for the Princess Of Princess Title and she hasn’t felt tension like this in a long time. She only wants to fight for that title when she has a vision of what she would be like holding it. She’s been in the ring with Yuki Arai plenty of times even going back to Arai training for her debut match. She loves seeing the fighting spirit in Arai’s eyes but when they had the singles match at the end of last year that only lasted a minute, Arai’s eyes were not filled with fighting spirit and Yamashita felt no excitement from beating her so quickly. Arai made up for it by submitting Yamashita with the Scorpion Death Lock a month later and that is the wrestler Yamashita wants to fight again when the title is on the line.
Arai talked about her debut match five years ago happening on the same show where Yamashita successfully defended the Princess Title. It was the first time Arai watched a title match in person and it left a strong impression on her. As champion Arai wants to become the kind of presence that Yamashita has but she is aware there are many things she needs to improve to get there. She knew one day she would fight Yamashita for a championship but never thought she would be the champion and Yamashita the challenger. She promises to excite Yamashita next month and show everyone she has become one or two levels stronger. Arai also told a story from her first year as a wrestler. She had hurt the inside of her mouth and didn’t want to eat food because it stung too much. However Yamashita kept offering her food like soup and making her take it. At the time Arai thought it was Yamashita being very strict until she realised it was being done out of love because Yamashita didn’t want Arai to starve herself and lose weight.
The weird situation over the Princess Tag Team Titles match is only getting weirder. Kyoraku Kyomei boycotted the press conference in their continued protest of being put in the match against their will. Rise Shirai had to tell Daydream to sign the contract first and then it would be signed by the challengers at a later date. Both Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi expressed their disappointment in the no show but they are certain the boycott will end and the title match will go ahead. Suddenly they were asked a question from Hasegawa an unknown reporter from a magazine called “Monthly Throwaway German”. Afterward came a question from someone named Hero Oka from the “Daily Hero” newspaper. The two reporters then insisted on asking more and more questions until they were suddenly standing face to face with Daydream. The disguises were then pulled off and the reporters were revealed to be Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao! Nakajima stole the contract from Shirai while Misao blinded Daydream with her Hero Spray. Since the contract currently only has Daydream’s signatures on them, that means the title match cannot go ahead. Kyoraku Kyomei will keep the contract for themselves to make sure it won’t take place until they say so!
When it comes to living her life, Wakana Uehara puts her full effort into everything that she wants to do. But lately she’s become interested in eating all of the rare delicacies she can find in the world. Things like crocodile feet, camel meat, tuna bone marrow or what she’s most interested in at the moment… wasp lava. She heard that wasp lava is soft, incredibly creamy and has a rich nuttiness that tastes great when cooked with rice. They can also taste like shrimp when deep fried and sprinkled with salt. When Uehara challenged Suzume for the International Princess Title, Suzume later made a tweet referencing The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Uehara promises to devour Suzume so much she will get a stomach ache but just like in The Very Hungry Caterpillar she will then turn into a beautiful butterfly in the end. Suzume joked that she’s been called delicious before because her outfits are bee and honey themed but this is the first time someone is threatening to fry her crispy. But she is too big to be eaten and her strong point is how she can beat opponents who are bigger than her.

DDT “LET’S GO! BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2026”, 18/06/2026
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Junta Miyawaki, KANON & Yuki Ishida defeated Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata when KANON pinned Inahata with the Lariat (8:26).
2. Yuki Ueno defeated Hinata Kasai with a Crab Hold (12:44).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Bunbun defeated Takeshi Masada (c) with a Cradle (6:09 pm).
*Bunbun becomes the 1,829th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Antonio Honda defeated Bunbun (c) with the TTD (6:21 pm).
*Antonio Honda becomes the 1,830th champion.
3. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda (c) & Akito when Koroku submitted Honda with an Arm Lock (10:00).
*Yuya Koroku becomes the 1,831st champion.
4. Crocodile Death Match BEYOND: Crocodile D Sasa, Abarenbo Hideki & Ilusion (w/ MJ Paul) defeated MAO, Yukio Naya & Viento Levante (w/ KIMIHIRO & YUZUKI) when Hideki pinned with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster in the Pool (12:17).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Kazuki Hirata defeated Yuya Koroku (c) with a Hammer Attack (7:27 pm).
*Kazuki Hirata becomes the 1,832nd champion.
5. Ring Removal Death Match: HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata defeated Shunma Katsumata, To-y & Yuni when Dieno pinned Yuni with the Danshoku Driver onto the pile of Cans (23:47).
Taking a page from Michinoku Pro’s annual Great Space War, DDT tried doing a Ring Removal Death Match for the first time today. From the moment the bell rang, a cleanup crew of wrestlers all began to deconstruct the ring while the actual match participants tried to fight each other without getting in the way. The environment became more dangerous as the match progressed because the ring got more bare. Danshoku Dieno tried to put the ring back together then started arguing with the cleanup crew, causing Akito to add a new rule. The crew would be paid double for the day and be treated to an all you can eat meal if they could complete the deconstruction before the match ends! Also the match was now Falls Count Anywhere because the fighting was breaking out into the audience anyway. The ring was taken down to just one last corner post but when Yuya Koroku directed everyone to carry it out, a mystery figure appeared and knocked him out with a hammer. It was Kazuki Hirata and he pinned Koroku to win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title! With no ring left, Dieno had to resort to giving Yuni the Danshoku Driver onto a pile of beer cans nearby to win the match. His team was rewarded with a year long exemption from being in the cleanup crew for DDT events held inside Ueno Park.
News came on short notice that Daisuke Sasaki would not be at the show today. Overnight he remembered a news story from 1993 about a crocodile being sighted at Shakujii Park in Nerima Ward. He thought about it all night and didn’t get enough sleep to be able to wrestle today. His replacement was Crocodile D Sasa but the costume was eventually ripped off to reveal it was Sasaki all along. The match itself had Strange Love Connection and DAMNATION T.A all fighting each other around rubber pools filled with inflatable crocodiles. Hideki Okatani briefly disappeared only to return with somebody dressed in a horse costume. That was somehow the difference maker.
There were other Iron Man Title changes that happened earlier on the show. Daichi Sato rolled up his partner Koroku and got a three count but because he was also holding Bunbun at the time, Yukinori Matsui declared it was Bunbun who pinned Koroku and was now the champion! Antonio Honda later fought Bunbun during the actual match and pinned the puppet with the Tenzan Tombstone Driver. Koroku then submitted Honda to win back the belt and held onto it until Hammer Hirata’s attack during the main event.
Rukiya was in the corner coaching and cheering on Hinata Kasai for Kasai’s match with Yuki Ueno. Sadly it did not result in Kasai getting his first victory. At the end of the show Kasai and Rukiya looked like they were going to fight each other but instead they embraced and bowed to the fans.

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2026”, 17/06/2026
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Takeshi Masada & Daichi Sato defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata when Masada pinned Inahata with the Manburi (8:15).
2. Yukio Naya & Viento Levante defeated Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda when Naya submitted Honda with a Cobra Twist (0:10).
2a. Rematch: Yukio Naya & Viento Levante defeated Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda when Naya submitted Honda with a Cobra Twist (7:58).
3. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Kazuki Hirata (c) defeated Yuya Koroku by Submission (6:17).
*V? for Kazuki Hirata.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Yuya Koroku defeated Kazuki Hirata (c) with the Triangle Lancer (6:46 pm).
*Yuya Koroku becomes the 1,828th champion.
4. Irregular Captain Drunk Match: Ilusion (C), Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani defeated Yuki Ishida, Rukiya & Hinata Kasai (C) when Ilusion pinned Kasai with the Swanton Bomb (10:17).
5. Special Single Match: Junta Miyawaki defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Sunshine Clutch (8:01).
6. Falls Count Anywhere 4 Way Tag Match: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA defeated Yuki Ueno & To-y, Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Akiyama and MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) when HARASHIMA pinned To-y with the Somato (17:51).
For the fourth time in six years MAO has run over his boss Sanshiro Takagi with a van! The first of this week’s Beer Garden shows featured a wild Falls Count Anywhere main event that included Jun Akiyama crashing a bicycle into a castle made of chairs, the above mentioned MAO driving a vehicle into Takagi and To-y falling off the top of a ladder in shock of seeing the car accident. That last bit cost his the match because it let HARASHIMA hit him with the Somato aftwards for the victory.
Takagi got so mad at MAO over what happened that his anger spread over to the officiating. He can no longer trust any of the referees so his match with MAO on 28th June will now become a No Referee Match! MAO was confused as Takagi tried to figure out on the spot what that means. It means it will now be up to the audience to count the pinfalls and determine the winner! MAO loves the idea because he’s not sure if he and Takagi will ever have another singles match after this again. He can now go all out without worrying about any referees trying to stop him, because the fans certainly won’t.
Junta Miyawaki isn’t the only wrestler in DDT who embodies the sunshine. Shunma Katsumata proved it by dressing up like what he imagines a “Sunshine Hero” would look like.
The team captains in Match #4 had to drink an entire beverage every time somebody on their team was caught committing a foul. Hinata Kasai and Ilusion were the two captains but the ever so selfless Yuki Ishida helped Kasai with some of the drinks. MJ Paul meanwhile force fed Kasai a drink to send him to his drunk breaking point. Ilusion was still measured enough to do the Swanton Bomb and then win the match.
Exact phrasing along with the rules being taken literally made Yuya Koroku lose his match. He had Kazuki Hirata trapped in an Arm Bar and spoke on the microphone that he would make Hirata give up. However he made it sound like he was giving up instead, which Yukinori Matsui took literally so Hirata was declared the winner and still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. But since the championship is defended 24/7, Koroku attacked Hirata after the match and made him give up to the Triangle Lancer to become the new champ.
Hisaya Imabayashi pulled his back recently and wasn’t in the best condition to complain about Match #2 ending too quickly. A cure was unexpectedly found when Antonio Honda used Danshoku Dieno’s rear to charge up Gongitsune. The attack then hit Imabayashi right in the point of his injury and made the back pain go away! Now he’s as fit as a fiddle but he was thrown face first into Dieno’s Hell Gate anyway.

MONDAY MAGIC “WRESTLE MAGIC 2026”, 15/06/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced
4. HAYATA, Riiita & MAO defeated Rich Port Ayala, Rhys Alexios & Danny Duggan when MAO pinned Duggan with the Osaka Rinkai Upper (14:07).
7. Zack Sabre Jr., Luis Mante & Chris Brookes defeated Kaito Kiyomiya, Titus Alexander & Archie Cole when Sabre submitted Cole with the Modified Octopus Hold (26:22).
It’s back to the mystical world of Monday Magic where I can’t tell what’s going through NOSAWA Rongai’s mind sometimes. For every bizarre decision he makes like booking a dozen unknown foreign wrestlers there are moments of really good ideas like getting the new Hayabusa to team up with Great Sasuke and Ultimo Dragon. Today DDT had some of their wrestlers appear on the latest season finale. Chris Brookes was in the main event teaming up with Zack Sabre Jr. once more and this time including Luis Mante to the deal. Their opponents are the three wrestlers NOSAWA has decided to build his brand around. No joke but Kaito Kiyomiya, Titus Alexander & Archie Cole are being called the MAGIC Three Musketeers! Brookes, Sabre & Mante were put together as a team because NOSAWA considers them the “Three Musketeers” of DDT, New Japan and Dragon Gate. In the late stages of the match Kiyomiya, Alexander, Brookes and Mante all took each other out with their big moves. Sabre blocked a Moonsault from Cole with his knees and sent him through an agonizing series of submission holds until Cole gave up to the Octopus Hold.
The other DDT wrestler to show up was MAO. He got to team with HAYATA from NOAH and Riita from Dragon Gate for the first time ever. Facing them was an international trio of wrestlers: Rich Port Ayala from Puerto Rico along with English wrestlers Rhys Alexios & Danny Duggan. They had Sonny Onoo in their corner for the match if you’re wondering just who is booking the foreign talent for Monday Magic. MAO scored the win for his team and he said he enjoyed the experience because he may never get to wrestle with HAYATA & Riiita again.
NOAH “Mercari Presents NEO GLOBAL TAG LEAGUE 2026”, 16/06/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1,009 Fans
6. NEO-GTL 2026 Special: Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI, Kaito Kiyomiya & KENTA defeated Masa Kitamiya, Takashi Sugiura, Tetsuya Endo & HAYATA when Naito pinned HAYATA with an Inside Cradle (10:39).
7. Mercari Presents NEO GLOBAL TAG LEAGUE 2026 – Final: Manabu Soya & Yuki Iino defeated Karl Anderson & Doc Gallows when Soya pinned Gallows after the Jonetsu IS (25:55).
I’m already burned out from writing the article about Daisuke Sasaki in Best Of The Super Jr. so I’m not doing a full tournament report on Yuki Iino in the NEO GLOBAL TAG LEAGUE. But that won’t take away from the fact that Iino won the tournament with Manabu Soya as his partner! The two of them entered together as Jonetsu MAX and they topped Block B with four wins out of five matches and a total of eight points. In the grand final they faced The Good Brothers. Fueled by the power of passion, Soya & Iino took out Doc Gallows with a Double Brainbuster and then used the Jonetsu IS (Big Ending/Running DDT combo) on Karl Anderson to become the tournament champions! Their rewards is a GHC Tag Team Titles match against Los Tranquilos de Japon coming up on 25th June.
There isn’t much to write about Tetsuya Endo’s match on the show. What should be talked about is he has a GHC Heavyweight Title shot coming up on 25th June. If he can beat Shane Haste then he will achieve his goal of adding his name to the lineage of past GHC Champions!

7. DDT Extreme Title – Hardcore I Quit Match: Hideki Okatani (c) Vs Junta Miyawaki
A Hardcore I Quit Match is the stipulation chosen by Hideki Okatani for the DDT Extreme Title bout. He chose the rule because he wants to make Junta Miyawaki quit right in front of him. Making the opponent say “I quit” or something similar like “I surrender” will end the match. If a situation occurs where the wrestler becomes too injured to speak, the referee is allowed to end the match by TKO.

Shinjuku FACE
1. Special Single Match: MJ Paul Vs Ryunosuke Nagai
2. Fake Brahman Army Vs Mataro Army All-Out Confrontation: Fake Brahman Yuki, Fake Brahman Yuki & Fake Brahman Yuki Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Takayuki Ueki & Takeshi Masada (w/ Mataro)
3. Special Tag Match: Minoru Fujita & Ilusion Vs Ayato Ishida & Gabai Ji-chan
4. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs Keisuke Ishii
As if having the illustrious O-40 Title being defended on the show isn’t enough, we’re getting a major 6-Man Tag Match with super important stakes being applied to it. Mataro is the luckless member of DDT’s video team that constantly gets dragged into a DAMNATION T.A match whenever Daisuke Sasaki gets to put together a show. Mataro ended up having to wrestle in some of these matches and then retire from wrestling due to losing a stipulation. Now he is getting the opportunity to cancel that retirement because if his team can beat the Fake Brahman Brothers (think of all the DDT wrestlers named Yuki and you can guess who they are) he gets to return to wrestling again!
SUPER JAPAN “BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING”, 06/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. Unpaid Rumble RETURNS!: X Vs X
2. Special Single Match: MBM Vs Miles Karu
3. Thanomsak Toba Vs Mac Matsushita
4. Special Tag Match: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Saito Vs Gym Trainer Kotoka & Marika Kobashi
5. Special Single Match: Ken Ohka Vs Hayabusa
6. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs CIMA
I haven’t been paying attention to Up Town but Kuroshio TOKYO Japan has been quietly building up a neat little roster for himself over there. When he launched the promotion he said he wanted it to be like a small ramen shop that attracts a long line and that just sounds like a lovely place to carve out for himself in the wrestling world. Saito is one of the new wrestlers to debut from Up Town and she is making her Super Japan debut here. Despite having less than a year of experience she is actually pretty active thanks to working on Ice Ribbon and WAVE shows in between Up Town events.
The match between Thanomsak Toba and Mac Matsuhita will be held under the rounds system with five rounds lasting three minutes each being the plan.
Some international action on the undercard with MBM from Belgium taking on Miles Karu from Malaysia.
