DDT “D GENERATIONS 5 ~UNFINISHED SHACHIHOKO BOYS~”, 16/08/2025
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Tag Match: Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida defeated Takahiro Hiramoto & Masanori Kanu Watanabe when Ishida pinned Watanabe with the Flame Palm (12:13).
2. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Battle: To-y defeated Grand Passion Mask No. 4 with the Kojima Impact (8:06).
3. Ilusion defeated Mikiya Sasaki with a Rope-Assisted Backslide Pin (6:43).
4. Hideki Okatani defeated Ryoma Tsukamoto with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster (8:24).
5. Special Single Match: Shota defeated Yuya Koroku with a Crucifix Pin (12:06).
6. Special Tag Match: Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi defeated Yu Shimizu & Ali Najima when Sumi pinned Najima with the School Boy (15:04).

The fifth D GENERATIONS show took place outside of Tokyo for the first time. Everyone instead went over to Nagoya to fight a fresh set of opponents away from the Young Communication side. The main event pitted Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi against the local Sportiva team of Yu Shimizu & Ali Najima. Sumi scored the win for the D GENERATIONS team but Najima demanded a singles match with him afterward.

Shota was the only Young Communication wrestler on the show so he felt the need to be at his best against Yuya Koroku. He used a Crucifix Pin as a counter to Koroku’s Armbar to get the win and is pretty pleased with himself over it. Koroku however said things aren’t over between him and Shota.

Ryoma Tsukamoto briefly gave Hideki Okatani a taste of his own medicine when he choked him with a chain outside the ring during their match. But Okatani got his second wind, gave Tukamoto the Claymore Kick into the corner and pinned him with the Verical Drop Brainbuster.

A similar situation happened with Ilusion in his match. Mikiya Sasaki was also willing to use dirty tactics against a DAMNATION T.A wrestler, mainly using the ropes for leveraging his pin attempts. Ilusion fought back using Low Blows but even then Sasaki would give him a Low Blow of his own by accidentally falling head first into Ilusion’s groin. The damage was too much for Sasaki to bear though and Ilusion pinned him with a Backslide Pin with his own feet on the ropes for leverage.

Grand Passion Mask No. 4 tried to trick To-y during the match by stripping down to his underwear and hiding among the audience in the front row. This included removing his mask and leaving it in the ring for To-y to find and get confused. Passion would then attack him from behind but got the back of his underwear pulled down in the process. To-y would then get his hands on him for a Full Nelson Buster followed by the Kojima Impact to protect his Right To Challenge Arm Cover.

DDT “D GENERATIONS 2 ~THERE’S NO LIMIT TO GROWING PAINS~”, 14/05/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Spinning Body Bomb (8:35).
2. Soma Takao defeated Takumi Saito with the Official Endless Waltz (11:03).
3. Ali Najima defeated Yuni with a German Suplex (9:37).
4. Hideki Okatani & Ilusion defeated Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami when Okatani pinned Kawakami with the Skewer-Style Claymore (11:38).
5. Special Single Match: To-y defeated Ryoma Tsukamoto with a Frankensteiner (9:03).
6. Special Tag Match: Shigehiro Irie & Shota defeated Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku when Shota pinned Masada with the Gannosuke Clutch (17:02).

The second D GENERATIONS show was a complete defeated against the Young Communication generation. All across the board the young wrestlers were beaten by their senior opponents. It started with Keisuke Ishii beating Kazuma Sumi then built up to Shota using the Gannosuke Clutch to pin Takeshi Masada in the main event. Shota told the DG wrestlers that it is ok to lose matches every now and then given how often they wrestle every week. The big mistake they made today was letting him win the match so he could give the winner’s speech on the microphone! He said his generation are the stars of the show meant for young wrestlers so next time they should take over the entire thing. When he left Sumi told the others they should join forces at the next show on 12th June to crush Shota & Shigehiro Irie because they are the future. Yuya Koroku agreed and said we can’t keep looking back at the past. The DG wrestlers should be confident in what they’re doing now to move forward.

On the bright side when the DG wrestlers fought against rookie wrestlers from other promotions most came out on the winning side. To-y had a come from behind victory against Ryoma Tsukamoto while the young DAMNATION T.A wrestlers beat the Ganbare☆Pro team with a little bit of cheating involved. Only Yuni lost his match against an outsider when Ali Najima defeated him.

May 6, 2025

GANBARE☆PRO “SUICIDE SQUAD 2025”, 05/05/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall
294 Fans – Super No Vacancy

2. YuuRI, Nanami & Kirari Wakana defeated Moeka Haruhi, Yuna Manase & Banny Oikawa when YuuRI pinned Oikawa with the Swanton Bomb (9:50).

5. Shuichiro Katsumura & Hartley Jackson defeated Toru Sugiura & Dragon Libre when Katsumura pinned Libre with the KKB (15:23).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Yasu Urano & PSYCHO when Watase pinned Urano with the Running Elbow Butt (19:25).
*V4 for Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase.

After the main event Mizuki Watase brought up that he and Yasu Urano once fought each other for the King Of Dark Title, a championship that DDT awarded to the loser and banished them to the pre-show until they won a match. He noted that match was 16 minutes long and lasted longer than the main event of the same show that day. He also said after today’s show he is now certain who the main character of Ganbare☆Pro is and that’s everybody in the GanPro universe! As for the next challengers for Watase & Shigehiro Irie, they welcome anyone to come face them for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. They want to defend the titles at every GanPro show.

The semi-main event sparked a fire between GanPro and FREEDOMS when Takashi Sasaki interfered in the match to help Toru Sugiura & Dragon Libre. The GanPro wrestlers acting as seconds at ringside ran him off allowing Shuichiro Katsumura & Hartley Jackson to win one for the home team. Sasaki swore revenge afterwards and said he will fight GanPro any time.

Sadly for HARUKAZE she is leaving pro wrestling for now without ever winning a match at an independent GanPro show. She was persistent in trying to get Ken Ohka to tap out to an Arm Bar before switching gears to using roll up pins. Ohka couldn’t be beaten though and he pinned HARUKAZE with the Flame Spear. HARUKAZE asked everyone to make GanPro bigger so when she does come back she can win her first match there in front of a larger audience! Ohka said he believes she will be successful in life away from pro wrestling and when she does return they will wrestle together again.

Once the show was completed Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & YuuRI held a Ganbare☆Rally at ringside to promote the “YOUNG GANBARE SUMMIT” show happening on 10th May. Nakamura will be facing Mochizuki Jr. from Dragongate on the show and promised to beat him with a German Suplex. Kawakami called his opponents Kazumasa Yoshida & Ali Najima two big opponents so he and Shota Kofuji will show them a giant killing! YuuRI will be in a 6-Woman Tag Match and said no matter who she teams up with or fights against she will do her best in her own way.

Yoshiko Hasegawa will get to wrestle in GanPro one last time before her retirement. She will team with YuuRI & Riara to take on Yuna Manase, Moeka Haruhi & Banny Oikawa on 22nd June.

The former KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions are getting an immediate rematch. NωA Jr. lost the belts to DAMNATION T.A over the weekend leading to a dilemma for Shunma Katsumata. He wants to win the titles again but this time with Yuki Ueno & To-y in The 37KAMIINA. However Yuni & Kazuma Sumi wanted this rematch to win back the titles with Katsumata under the NωA Jr. unit. DDT decided to go with NωA Jr. over The 37KAMIINA for the next title match.

The Strange Love Connection’s MC KIMIHIRO finally makes his DDT debut on this show.

On yesterday’s DDT show Yuki Ishida got beaten up pretty badly so he has been taken off this weekend’s two shows in order to recover. He is expected to be back in action on the 6th May Korakuen Hall show unless he hasn’t recovered in time.

Enough time has passed for DDT to try running another series of shows for young wrestlers again. They’re sticking with the D GENERATIONS branding and looking at the card I can see representatives from DDTeeeen!!, DNA and Young Communication too. To-y has been the standout of the current crop so he takes on Keisuke Ishii, who was seen in a similar position to him more than a decade ago. Two days after Daichi Sato becomes an official member of DDT he faces Shigehiro Irie, a former heavyweight main eventer for the company.

There’s a couple other guests too. Daichi Kazato is coming over from BASARA and the show gives ROMANCE DAWN another chance to team together. Oji Shiiba is a former Dragongate wrestler who has spent the 2020s roaming around the indies. Ali Najima is a new wrestler from Sportiva Entertainment who only debuted last year.
