9. KO-D Openweight Title – Good Com Asset Presents: KUDO (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi

In just a few short days DDT will be in Sumo Hall for the seventh annual “PETER PAN” extravaganza! You’d think the area would be sick of pro wrestling after last week but ticket sales suggest otherwise. The show is almost entirely sold out and DDT had to open up extra seats next to the stage to meet demand. The big stories surrounding the show are a dream match between a once in a lifetime talent and the indie world’s strongest warrior, a battle between two brothers in arms over DDT’s greatest prize, two Storm Riders attempting to take gold from some strong style golems, a trio of lifelong companions getting the band back together in search of glory, a grumpy old sumo’s short stay during his journey to retirement, the return of a future main eventer in the making, a day in the limelight for one of DDT’s longest serving wrestlers and some new blood making their debut.

0. King Of Dark Title: Gota Ihashi (c) Vs “Hollywood” Stalker Ichikawa

But before we get to all that we have to get through the pre-show. Created back in February, the King Of Dark Title has been an albatross for some of the worst and unluckiest wrestlers in DDT. Those who hold the championship are banished to wrestle in dark matches until they win. Still, it’s more valuable than the King Of The Mountain Title. Gota Ihashi has been the face of the championship for it’s short history, racking up a total of 18 defeats/defences during his two reigns. Ihashi has done everything he could to get rid of the belt but every plan has ended in failure. His embarrassment continues when he goes against one of the most legendary losers in pro wrestling, “Hollywood” Stalker Ichikawa! Ihashi is confident in his ability to win but he should underestimate Stalker at his peril! I’m pretty sure Stalker has won more matches than Ihashi ever did.

1. Mao Inoue & Mizuki Watase Debut Match: Yasu Urano, Akito & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Kota Umeda, Mao Inoue & Mizuki Watase

The opener features the debut of two new wrestlers. Mao Inoue is an 18 year old Youtube wrestler from Miyagi who was scouted by Sanshiro Takagi. Mizuki Watase is a 24 year old comedian from Nagano and is most known for his work in Tenori Tiger. They were both surprised to learn their debut match is taking place so soon in Sumo Hall. They will be placed in the ring with DNA wrestlers Ryota Nakatsu and Kota Umeda as well as veterans Yasu Urano & Akito. Akito’s inclusion here is pretty disappointing to be honest. He was on fire with his DDT Extreme Title run throughout the year. Him in the opening match centred around the rookies is a step down. However DDT has a knack for discovering talented new wrestlers lately. The DNA shows have been proof of that and Nakatsu is one of the stand outs. Akito might be just the guy needed to help break in the rookies.

2. Time Difference Tag Battle Royal: Aja Kong & Makoto Oishi Vs LiLiCo & Suguru Miyatake Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs MIKAMI & Shunma Katsumata Vs Gorgeous Matsuno & Great Kojika Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Hiroshi Fukuda & Yoshihiko Vs Hoshitango & Mio Shirai

Usually the Battle Royal match in these shows are for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. However this year is a little bit different. We’re getting a Tag Team Battle Royal and all of the attention is on the official pro wrestling debut of LiLiCo. The half Swedish, half Japanese celebrity was a guest on last year’s show and she ended up winning the Iron Man Title. This time she’s back to give pro wrestling a proper go. She picked Suguru Miyatake as her partner after he impressed her with his physique. Unfortunately for LiLiCo, the current Iron Man champion Aja Kong demanded to be in the match and is forcing Makoto Oishi to team with her. Kong is setting her sights on LiLiCo and looking to end her wrestling career before it even begins.

The rest of the field is made up of DDT regulars and a few guests. MIKAMI left DDT a few months ago to become a freelancer but he returns to team with the promising rookie Shunma Katsumata. Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Kouki Iwasaki recently formed Pigging 2015 with Gota Ihashi much to the annoyance of everyone else. Gorgeous Matsuno & The Great Kojika are here to be the classy old gentlemen who puts the young whipper-snappers in their place. Kazuki Hirata wants to dance while Toru Owashi has to tolerate him. Hiroshi Fukuda combines his American sports entertainment style with the power of Yoshihiko to form a force of unbelievable strength. Last but not least Hoshitango & Mio Shirai make up the team of random character selects from a custom Fire Pro Wrestling save. Shirai will be retiring on 20th September and said she is happy to be in a crazy DDT battle royal one last time.

3. DDT Extreme Title – Uchikami! Presents: Antonio Honda (c) Vs Masa Takanashi

Antonio Honda has had quite the career in DDT. He’s been a Cuban manager with Tourette’s, an Italian drug lord, a Hawaiian Ricky Steamboat knock off and a kleptomaniac soldier. He introduced Hulk Hogan Gymnastics to the world and just recently had the honour of fighting an invisible Mel Gibson. But the spotlight has never really been on him for long. There was that one night at the end of 2010 when he became the Interim KO-D Openweight Champion but that was short lived. Honda accepts that he is approaching his twilight years in the ring but he’s not giving up just yet. Every dog has his day and Honda could get his inside Sumo Hall. An upset victory over Akito in July earned Honda the DDT Extreme Title. Unfortunately since then his feel good story has been interrupted by Masa Takanashi. Honda lost a few non-title matches to Takanashi, who later became the No. 1 Contender for the Extreme Title.

Takanashi remembers when he fought Danshoku Dino for the Extreme Title at the very first “RYOGOKU PETER PAN” back in 2009. He lost then but he intends to win the belt this time. Honda is keeping the stipulation for the match a secret until the day of the show. All he will say is the match will use fear as a theme and it is inspired by a previous match the two had together. Honda says the rules scare even himself and he must overcome that fear to defend his title.

4. Tetsuya Endo Comeback Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Tetsuya Endo

Tetsuya Endo has been out of action for four months when he broke his third metatarsal in his left foot. For his return, Endo will face his Happy Motels tag team partner Konosuke Takeshita in a battle between two of DDT’s future main eventers. Endo is believes this match is as important to him as a championship match and he will treat it as such. He’s been working backstage and at ringside during DDT’s shows while he recovered and has seen in person the improvement in Takeshita’s Dropkick. Takeshita said he will go full force from the beginning and he thinks this match will be fighting against the two main events for the best bout of the show.

5. Genichiro Tenryu Retirement Road Round 15: Genichiro Tenryu, Sanshiro Takagi & Saki Akai Vs Shuji Ishikawa, Kazusada Higuchi & Meiko Satomura

The legendary Genichiro Tenryu will wrestle in DDT for the first and only time this Sunday. This won’t be the weirdest thing he’s ever done in wrestling, that would be dressing up as HG in HUSTLE. Tenryu sent in some words about the other wrestlers in his match. He noted Sanshiro Takagi’s dexterity and how nothing ever worries him. He is quite pleased to team with Saki Akai and knows her father’s history in boxing. Akai is hoping she will inherit Tenryu’s patented Goo Punch. That is a lot better for her than the original idea of Tenryu Vs Akai in a singles match. Tenryu calls Shuji Ishikawa a natural wrestler and acknowledges the physical fitness of his fellow sumo Kazusada Higuchi. Due to their sumo backgrounds Higuchi has a few similar qualities with Tenryu and some of Higuchi’s movements does remind me of Tenryu. Higuchi admits he is nervous to be in the same ring as Tenryu but he wants Tenryu to fight him with all of his body and soul. Meanwhile Akai is preparing for Meiko Satomura and remembers when they fought last November. Satomura submitted her with a Sleeper Hold and she’s been frustrated over the results ever since.

6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao (c) Vs Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine & Ken Ohka

Last year Team Dream Futures were the challengers, this year they are the champions. Team Drift currently have the most successful KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title run in the belts’ history with three successful defences (it’s a hot potato championship). Facing them is a trio reunited by the power of friendship. Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine and Ken Ohka consider each other close friends from the same generation of DDT wrestlers. However Ohka has been missing from this group for years. He’s been busy forming a new identity as the leader of Ganbare☆Wrestling. Ohka even did the unthinkable and very briefly became the KO-D Openweight Champion back in June. It took some convincing but Ohka is back in DDT as a new man. Together with Dino & Sasadango they are the Gamba Wrestle Dream Factory.

Happy reunions aside the challengers have a big challenge ahead of them. Team Drift are one of the longest running stables in DDT. Also Soma Takao is still undefeated at “PETER PAN” with a 6-0 record. Tensions flared at the press conference when Keisuke Ishii gave a lot of praise to Dino and Sasadango but gave Ohka a backhanded compliment. Ohka took offence and dared Ishii to slap him. He did. Ohka then dared Takao to slap him. He did. Ohka then dared Shigehiro Irie to hit him. Irie sent him reeling with a headbutt. The challengers left to get Ohka some treatment but he returned and dared Irie to headbutt him again! Irie did so and Ohka was left in tears from the pain.

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi (c) Vs Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki

The unfortunately named Strong BJ have been unstoppable in DDT ever since they won the KO-D Tag Team Titles in Saitama Super Arena back in February. It seems like there is no one in DDT capable of beating Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi. Right now it seems like DDT’s last hope of ever reclaiming the belts lie with Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki. However Ibushi is no doubt tired after the G1 Climax and Sasaki has had no luck with trying to beat Okabayashi in the meantime. The flash Hurricanrana Sasaki has used to great effect all year did not work on Big Japan’s golem. He is still confident that himself & Ibushi are the strongest team on Earth and will take down the champs. He gave himself & Ibushi a 65% chance of winning. Okabayashi’s response is he & Sekimoto will crush the challengers with 120% of their strength. While Sasaki and Okabayashi are arguing over percentages, Sekimoto was probably just thinking “Not this shit again” to himself.

8. Dramatic Dream Match: HARASHIMA Vs Hiroshi Tanahashi

It’s not closing out the show but this is the marquee match. The ace of DDT versus the ace of New Japan. Or if you want to be cynical, the John Cena of DDT versus the John Cena of New Japan. Either way “___WinsLOL” can apply to either result. But why be negative about this? We’re going to get a great match. HARASHIMA has been on top of his game this year and if anyone deserves a shot against this year’s G1 winner, it’s him. Hiroshi Tanahashi previously wrestled in DDT at last year’s “PETER PAN” against Konosuke Takeshita. He sent a message to DDT saying HARASHIMA is a refreshing challenger and he expects HARASHIMA to bring his A-game. HARASHIMA called Tanahashi “the most delicious opponent” now that he is coming into the show as the G1 winner.

9. KO-D Openweight Title – Good Com Asset Presents: KUDO (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi

The semi-main event has the most attention but the main event is the most dramatic match on this card. To sweeten the deal a 2 million yen cash prize will be awarded to the winner courtesy of the match’s sponsor Good Com Asset. The KO-D Openweight Title is also on the line between two wrestlers who consider each other as brothers. They share a bond over fine liquor but the high tension of main eventing DDT’s biggest show of the year nearly split them apart. KUDO has been champion for most of the summer and did not flinch when Yukio Sakaguchi won the King Of DDT tournament to earn this title shot. However a series of defeats created a rift between the two and KUDO started to question whether or not Sakaguchi deserved to have the title shot. Sakaguchi himself had doubts and at one point even requested to be removed from the match! However fortunes turned around and Sakaguchi found his way back to a winning streak. Sakaguchi regained his confidence and warned KUDO that he was coming for him and the title! Their friendship was still frosty as they fought each other in tag matches up until the end of Beer Garden week. The two were full of mutual respect for each other and fist bumped to signal a recovery of their friendship. With all of the bad blood out now of the way there is nothing stopping them from going all out to prove who is more deserving to be champion. KUDO calls this match a clash of souls and promises to drink the most delicious alcohol in his life when he wins.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~HAPPY MOTELS DAY~” Results

August 6, 2015

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~HAPPY MOTELS DAY~”, 06/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING
460 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. Hiroshi Fukuda Produce: Yasu Urano defeated Shintaro Muroya by DQ when Murotani was counted out on the top turnbuckle (5:36).
1. Sayaka Obihiro defeated Akemi Papiyon with the Half Hatch Suplex (Special Referee: Afro Soichiro Abe) (11:38).
2. 3 Way Hot Pants Ladder Match: Daisuke Sasaki defeated Ryu Gouma and Yumehito Imanari when Sasaki climbed the ladder and grabbed the beer (8:09).
3. Antonio Honda defeated Transparent Mel Gibson with a Backslide Pin (22:15).
4. Ironman Match: Konosuke Takeshita (2) Vs Hiroshi Fukuda (2) ended in a Draw (8:45pm).
4a. Konosuke Takeshita defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with the Wall Of Takeshita (4:36).
4b. Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Konosuke Takeshita with a Harai-Goshi (7:48).
4c. Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Konosuke Takeshita with the Perfect Cradle (13:36).
4d. Konosuke Takeshita defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with a Frankensteiner (18:22).
4e. Overtime Sudden Death: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with the German Suplex (1:28).

Konosuke Takeshita and Hiroshi Fukuda had an Ironman match that lasted from the time it started until 8:45 pm. I don’t know what time it begun but tweets about the match suggest that it lasted just under 20 minutes in total. Midway through the match when the score was tied one a piece, Fukuda bumped into the referee. The room darkened and suddenly “nWo Sting” appeared in the ring! He attacked Takeshita with a baseball bat and hit the Scorpion Death Drop. “Sting” then dragged Fukuda over Takeshita for the pin but he only got a two count. When the clock struck 20:45 the match ended in a 2-2 draw. Takeshita challenged Fukuda to sudden death overtime and it was accepted. The two collided over and over with Lariats but Takeshita caught Fukuda with a German Suplex to grab the victory.

Antonio Honda entered Shin-kiba 1st Ring today to face one of the toughest challenges of not just his career, but of his entire life. Transparent Mel Gibson flew into Japan on his transparent private jet to answer Honda’s challenge and the two went face to face in the ring as the live commentary team talked about Gibson’s movies. When Honda took control he drank from a bottle of whiskey and began impersonating Jack Nicholson’s character from Easy Rider. Gibson fought back until Honda started Hulking up. Honda applied a Guillotine Drop and told the ref to ask if Gibson would submit. Gibson yelled “Freedom!” Honda let Gibson go and talked about watching a match from a college wrestling club called HWWA. In that match a young wrestler named Harley Rape was fighting the Invisible Man. The point of the story is Honda learned that every person has their struggles, even invisible people. Honda invited Gibson to dance as Leonard Cohen’s “Bird On A Wire” played over the speakers. The two danced together until Honda hit Gibson with a cheap shot and pinned him with a Backslide. They still hugged afterwards.

Everyone in the Ladder match had to wrestle in hot pants. Daisuke Sasaki was given a wedgie as he climbed the ladder but he admitted it felt good. Ryu Gouma said Sasaki and Yumehito Imanari should have been arrested for public indecency. However when he was given a wedgie he too admitted it felt good.

Antonio Honda in an afro wig was the referee for Match #1. He was constantly finding ways to avoid counting pins made by Sayaka Obihiro. Eventually he was knocked out by Obihiro and Daisuke Kiso ran down to make the three count when Obihiro did the Half Hatch Suplex.

Tetsuya Endo was interviewed by Hisaya Imabayashi (nice to hear he recovered from his fatal car crash) at the start of the show. Imabayashi said Endo had a similar looking face to female astronaut Chiaki Mukai, Endo was offended by the comment. Takeshita had to step in and prevent a fight from breaking out.

In the dark match Yasu Urano had to face one of Fukuda’s friends. Shintaro Muroya wore one of Fukuda’s old wrestling costumes and was aided by Fukuda throughout the match. Fukuda laid out Urano with the Perfect Plex and told Murotani to climb the top rope. Murotani did so but hesitated to jump. He waited so long that he was counted out and the match was awarded to Urano.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

5. Dramatic Pioneer Final Suicide! MIKAMI DDT Affiliation Final Match: MIKAMI, Isami Kodaka & Gorgeous Matsuno defeated KUDO, HARASHIMA & Sanshiro Takagi when MIKAMI pinned Takagi with the Sliding School Boy (12:44).
6. Daisuke Sekimoto, Yuji Okabayashi & Hideyoshi Kamitani defeated Kota Ibushi, Daisuke Sasaki & Suguru Miyatake when Sekimoto pinned Sasaki with the Deadlift German Suplex (19:34).
7. Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Shigehiro Irie with the Right Knee Of God (19:00).

After several weeks of setbacks and self-doubt Yukio Sakaguchi finally overcame Shigehiro Irie in the main event of today’s show. For the last month Irie had Sakaguchi’s number everytime they faced off and they wasted no time from the get go. KUDO watched the match from the commentary table knowing that he will be defending the KO-D Openweight Title against either wrestler at Sumo Hall next month. Irie hit the Flying Sausage, Teddy Bear and Beast Bomber but Sakaguchi wouldn’t stay down. Sakaguchi locked in a Sleeper Hold but Irie escaped and hit a Fire Thunder Driver for two. Sakaguchi Headbutted his way out of the Vertical Drop Back Flip and unleashed High Kicks to Irie, finishing him off with the Right Knee Of God. Sakaguchi praised Irie after the match and thanked GM Amon Tsurumi for not listening to his selfish plea of being removed from the Sumo Hall main event. Sakaguchi then called in KUDO and they had a staredown. Masa Takanashi tried to keep both of them calm but KUDO put his hand up to his mouth to shut him up. Sakaguchi told KUDO their match will be a war and they will kill each other for the KO-D Title.

The Golden☆Storm Riders and Strong BJ had their final skirmish before the big KO-D Tag Team Title match. The 6-Man Tag saw Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki push Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi into each other with trolleys. Strong BJ fought back with a triple Torture Rack spot in the ring. Ibushi stopped a German Suplex pin from Sekimoto by Double Stomping onto him. Unfortunately for Sasaki he got tossed around some more including a Double German from the tag champs. Sasaki’s flash Hurricanrana was blocked and Sekimoto destroyed him with the Lariat followed by the Deadlift German Suplex. In the post-match interview Ibushi said Sasaki was damaged pretty badly but he’ll recover in time for Sumo Hall. Meanwhile Ibushi will now focus on the G1 Climax that begins tomorrow.

After being with DDT for its entire 18 year existence MIKAMI has finished up his contract and is now a freelancer. DDT gave him a special sending off even though he is still going to wrestle for them from time to time. MIKAMI gave a speech thanking everyone for supporting him and continuing to support him. He also gave special mention to Gorgeous Matsuno and said they will team again someday.

Akito’s reign as DDT Extreme Champion has come to an end after Antonio Honda beat him in a Fall To The Hell Match. The ropes and turnbuckle pads were removed from the ring and the match could be won by ring out as well as pinfall or submission. There was a lot of ground wrestling as both men didn’t want to risk getting knocked out of the ring. Akito busted open Honda with Headbutts but Honda won out in the end when he Dropkicked Akito out of the ring. Honda said blood on his face is like beautiful make-up on a beautiful woman. It was announced afterwards that Honda will have his first defence at Sumo Hall. His opponent will be determined on 1st August. Honda is thrilled to have a big title match at Sumo Hall.

Due to the warm summer weather Super Sasadango Machine did not wear his usual long wrestling tights for his match. He also had a migraine so he did not create a PowerPoint presentation in time for the match. Danshoki Dino & Makoto Oishi asked how long it would take to make one and he said 5 minutes. Dino & Oishi told Sasadango to go make it and they will wrestle without him. Sasadango finished it and midway through the match he begun his analysis. He compared his opponents to the Takeda Cavalry from the Warring States period of Japanese history. The Takeda Cavalry was defeated with guns in the Battle Of Nagashino so Sasadango’s team should do something similar, just instead of guns they should use their asses. Sasadango said the anus is their muzzle, the rectum is their barrel and that’s where the bullet exits from (I can’t believe I’m typing this). He then revealed his plan “The Anal Three Stage Shoot”. The plan was for all three to use ass based offence and it worked! The trio won the match and look like they will be challenging for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles at Sumo Hall.

The 3 Way Tag devolved into dancing and fighting over the Hirata GO! glasses. Takanashi rolled over both Kazuki Hirata & Hiroshi Fukuda for a near fall. Saki Akai then followed up with a Double Jackknife Pin and that was enough to get the win. Hirata & Fukuda argued over who lost after the match.

Kazusada Higuchi has a new entrance song. He tapped out Kota Umeda by countering the Tornado Bomb into the Canadian Backbreaker.

Even with all the rules in his favour Gota Ihashi could not beat Yasu Urano in the King Of Dark Title match. Urano was being punished for losing the KO-D Title to Ken Ohka and only had to be pinned for 1 second to lose the match. However an Oklahoma Roll saved him from dark match hell. Ihashi then found out his next title match will be at Sumo Hall against Dragon Gate’s own lovable loser “Hollywood” Stalker Ichikawa! Ihashi thinks this is the match that will finally free him from his nightmare.

More matches were booked for “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2015”. Genichiro Tenryu, Sanshiro Takagi & Saki Akai will take on Shuji Ishikawa, Kazusada Higuchi & Meiko Satomura. Also Tetsuya Endo returns from injury and his first match back is against his tag team partner Konosuke Takeshita!

Antonio Honda did a good job convincing Akito for a DDT Extreme Title match. They will fight under Fall Into The Hell rules. The ring ropes will be removed and victory can be achieved by pinfall, submission or knocking the opponent out of the ring.

There is no official stipulation added to Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Shigehiro Irie. However if Irie beats Sakaguchi again for the third time this month it will surely lead to changes in the Sumo Hall main event.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN NAGOYA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TENMUSU~” Results

July 8, 2014

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN NAGOYA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TENMUSU~”, 06/07/2014
Nagoya Biwajima Sports Centre
376 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Buffalo defeated Gota Ihashi with the Lariat (9:31).
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Saki Akai defeated Michael Nakazawa, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & DJ Nira when Akai pinned Nira with La Magistral Cradle Cutback (10:16).
3. Nico Live Very Good Reputation Match: MIKAMI defeated Akito with the School Boy (10:53).
4. Insanely Funny Game Series! Revival!: Danshoku Dino & Kazuki Hirata defeated Makoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata when Hirata pinned Katsumata with the Modified Emerald Fusion (8:48).
5. Keisuke Ishii defeated Daisuke Sasaki with a Cradle (11:41).
6. HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano defeated Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao when HARASHIMA pinned Takao with the Somato (14:31).
7. Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi when Honda submitted Takanashi with the Octopus Hold (16:21).

Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo have formed a new group called Happy Motel. According to Honda, the group was formed to support the glorious future of Takeshita & Endo while he gets to do something meaningful for whatever remaining time he has left in the ring. Their first match together under their new name was a success, defeating the current KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions, Shuten-dōji. Honda noted how many strong stables DDT has right now but he, Takeshita & Endo are happy to be teaming together. Honda encouraged the reporters at ringside to write about the hot new up and coming unit who are riding a wave of momentum towards the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championships!

Yasu Urano spent a lot of the semi-main event trying to provoke Shigehiro Irie. Even though Urano and HARASHIMA won the match, an angry Irie chased Urano away from ringside afterwards.

There were some slight changes to the card due to Kota Ibushi’s injury. The 3-Way Match between Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi and Shunma Katsumata was turned into a Tag Team bout. Kazuki Hirata was added to team with Dino against Oishi & Katsumata. Dino wanted to dance with Hirata but was turned down because only Hirata can decide when it is appropriate to dance. The time came late in the match and the two punched their opponents in time to the music until Hirata pinned Katsumata with the Emerald Frosion.

Michael Nakazawa was quite perverted when he was in the ring with Saki Akai. Whenever he caught one of her kicks he tried to lick her leg.

DDT “ANTONIO HONDA BOX OFFICE ~DEKI-GOKORO~” Results

June 1, 2014

DDT “ANTONIO HONDA BOX OFFICE ~DEKI-GOKORO~”, 01/06/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
427 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Coal Miner’s Glove Match: Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Yasu Urano with a Coal Miner’s Glove Strike (7:36).
2. HARASHIMA, Riho & DJ Nira defeated Yuji Hino, Emi Sakura & Great Kojika when Riho pinned Sakura with the Somato (12:12).
3. Bra And Submission Match: Danshoku Dino defeated Norikazu Fujioka by Referee Stoppage (8:45).
4. Daisuke Sasaki defeated Masa Takanashi with the Crossface Lock (15:32).
5. SUPPON Grand Prix 2014: Super Sasadango Machine (2) and Amon Tsurumi (2) defeated Sayaka Obihiro (1), Kikutaro (1), Daisuke Kiso (0) and Soma Takao (0) (20:00).
5a. Sudden Death: Super Sasadango Machine (1) defeated Amon Tsurumi (0).
6. Memphis Last Man Standing Match: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Antonio Honda by Knockout with the Touchdown (23:02).

Antonio Honda was in charge of today’s show and it was filled with many of his ideas. He faced Konosuke Takeshita in a main event Memphis Last Man Standing Match. The rules were when a wrestler was pinned for a three count, he had eleven seconds to get back up to his feet. Both men fought long and hard until Takeshita pinned Honda with the Touchdown. Both were slow to react as the ref counted. Takeshita stood up at eight but Honda could not do the same and was counted out. At the end of the show Honda gave a speech about the time he went to see the movie 2012. He thought it was a boring movie but worried if the Mayan prophecy about the world ending was actually true. Honda said that today he gathered his friends and fellow wrestlers together for this event and thankfully the world did not end.

The SUPPON Grand Prix was a trivia contest with Danshoku Dino, DJ Nira and Yasu Urano as the judges. The questions were about subjects like Doraemon, kindergarten, novels by Sōseki Natsume and Vitamin B67. At the end it was a tie between Super Sasadango Machine and Amon Tsurumi. The tiebreak question was what would you do if you got an “invitation to the wrong side of a love hotel?” Sasadango won with his answer: “I put out, but pay the love hotel bill in full.”

Danshoku Dino defeated the weakling Norikazu Fujioka in a Bra And Submission match. He did so by referee stoppage when Dino tried to strip Fujioka of his shorts instead of his bra. The ref stopped the match for the sake of protecting what little dignity Fujioka had left.

Ganpuro No Offline, Cole Miner’s Glove Match

May 7, 2014

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 3”, 01/06/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Special Single Match: Shota Vs Tiger Bed Scene
2. No Offline Broadcast Special Streaming Double Hell Match: Shibata Vs Tanomusaku Toba

Shibata is a mixed martial artist who also helps with the broadcast of Ganbare☆Wrestling’s videos on Nico Douga. He approached Ken Ohka asking to join the Ganpuro roster and for the two of them to team together. Ohka declined to team with him but offered him an MMA match against a famous kickboxer. Shibata asked if it was Peter Aerts. Ohka said it’s not Aerts, it’s former DDT competitor and also video editor Tanomusaku Toba. I think based on the match name the idea is it will be streamed online.

Tigger Bed Scene is from SWS, a longtime student wrestling promotion.

1. Cole Miner’s Glove Match: Yasu Urano Vs Hiroshi Fukuda
2. Bra And Submission Match: Antonio Honda Vs Norikazu Fujioka

Looks like Antonio Honda is digging deep into the bag of ridiculous stipulation matches from America for his show. An iron glove used for coal mining will be placed over one of the turnbuckles for Yasu Urano and Hiroshi Fukuda to fight over. Fukuda will be wrestling as his “Mr. Perfect” persona.

DDT “ALL NIGHT ENTERTAINMENT” Results

March 30, 2014

DDT “ALL NIGHT ENTERTAINMENT – PART 1”, 29/03/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
532 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. Dark Match: Shunma Katsumata defeated Shun Miyatake with a Small Package (1:31).
1. Soma Takao defeated Gota Ihashi with a Diving Foot Stomp (5:13).
2. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Michael Nakazawa & DJ Nira when Takeshita pinned Nira with the Touchdown (10:27).
3. HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano defeated MIKAMI & Hoshitango when Urano pinned Hoshitango with a Backslide Pin (9:36).
4. Kikutaro defeated Guanchulo with the Shining Kikuzard (14:31).
5. Lucha Libre Rules: Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Sasaki pinned Hirata after the PK Mind.
*Daisuke Sasaki wins Kazuki Hirata’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract.
6. Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated Antonio Honda & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Ishii pinned Honda with the High Angle Double Arm DDT (10:40).
7. KUDO, Masa Takanashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Akito when KUDO pinned Oishi with the Buzzsaw Kick (13:55).

After scoring the pin in the main event, KUDO called out for any of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract holders to come out and challenge him. When none of them came out he then turned his attention to his next confirmed challenger Akito and talked about their upcoming match KO-D Openweight Title match. Akito told him it was going to be a war and he is the future of DDT.

Keisuke Ishii is utterly focused on getting an All Asia Tag Team Title shot. He yelled out “Akiyama!” before he delivered an Exploder Suplex to Tomomitsu Matsunaga in their tag match. He and Shigehiro Irie also have a new double team move called the Go 2 Irie Sleep. It involves Ishii lifting up his opponent in the Go 2 Sleep position while Irie kneels down beside them. Ishii then throws the victim face first into Irie’s head. After the match Ishii showed a video of himself confronting Jun Akiyama and Yoshinobu Kanemaru demanding a title shot. Both of them rejected the challenge and walked off. The video then showed Ishii approaching Akiyama in a public toilet only for Akiyama to yell at him “I’m pissing, go away!” Back in the building Ishii said he will got to Akiyama’s dojo to ask again and he will record the meeting to show at next week’s show in Kawasaki.

With the Monster Army disbanded both Daisuke Sasaki and Antonio Honda decided it was time for a fresh start. Sasaki asked if he could team with the Golden Lovers (but not with Gota Ihashi). Both Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega said he could but they were then interrupted by Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata. Takagi challenged them to a Lucha Libre 6-Man Tag match. Sasaki worked well with the Golden Lovers, he even pulled off the PK Mind with Omega to win the match. Amon Tsurumi granted the new trio a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title shot for the 12th April Kasukabe Hall show. Omega said he was reluctant to have Sasaki on his team instead of Ihashi but admitted they were a powerful team regardless.

Guanchulo cashed in his Right To Face Your Favourite Wrestler Contract to get a match with Kikutaro before he returns to Chile on 28th May. Kikutaro used his tricks to get Yukinori Matsui involved in the match and they proved to be the deciding factor. Afterwards Kikutaro thanked Guanchulo for choosing him to be his opponent. Danshoku Dino announced the return of Danshoku Ranch Classic will happen on 20th May and it will be a farewell show for Guanchulo. He will also put his DDT Extreme Title on the line against Guanchulo in Kasukabe Hall on 12th April.

The DDT trainees Shunma Katsumata and Shun Miyatake pleaded with Amon Tsurumi to let them have another exhibition match. They were both unhappy that their bout at “JUDGEMENT 2014” ended in a draw. Miyatake also wants to prove he is ready to debut properly. Tsurumi allowed the match to happen with the stipulation that Miyatake will earn his debut match if he wins. Miyatake wasn’t able to capitalise on his oppotunity and lost to Katsumata in 91 seconds.

HARASHIMA and Yasu Urano will continue to team together under the name UraShima. They are willing to team with other wrestlers but have no plans to recruit a third member.

DDT held two late night shows in Shin-Kiba 1st RING. The second show was dedicated to a one night arm wrestling tournament called the GO-1 CLIMAX. The winner would get a ¥50,000 cash prize. The final turned out to be a preview for the 13th April main event as Kota Ibushi and Konosuke Takeshita took each other on, with Ibushi winning. Takeshita told Ibushi he beat his right arm but his left arm is stronger.

After losing his Right To Challenge Contract earlier in the night, Kazuki Hirata quickly replaced it with Masa Takanashi’s contract after he pinned him in a 10-Man Tag match. Hirata spent the night wearing a Magnum TOKYO mask in between his matches.

The night ended with a performance of Hulk Hogan Gymnastics by Antonio Honda.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “RAISING AN ARMY” Results

December 1, 2013

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “RAISING AN ARMY”, 01/12/2013
Kitizawa Town Hall
294 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. KANNA defeated Ayumi Takada with a Boston Crab (4:39).
2. Nonoko & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Ura Erika & Shoko Nakajima when Nonoko pinned Nakajima with the Pai Fly Flow (10:00).
3. Miyu Yamashita defeated Chikage Kiba with the Crash Rabbit Heat (6:54).

It took 18 months since its creation but Tokyo Joshi Pro finally held its official debut show in Kitizawa today as part of a double header with DDT.

The main event pitted the two brightest trainees of the promotion against each other. Miyu Yamashita had beaten Chikage Kiba before and today she made it two for two with her Running Kick finisher, the Crash Rabbit Heat. Yamashita declared herself as the Ace of Tokyo Joshi Pro, at least for the time being. She also called out Nonoko and challenged her to a match. In her post show interview, Yamashita said she hopes people will call her the Ace rather than a self-proclaimed one. She hopes she will get to wrestle in various places and have fun doing so. Kiba really wanted to win but felt gratitude for all the people who was involved with today’s show. She doesn’t know what Tokyo Joshi Pro will turn into but she wants to continue.

The middle match was a chance for the plump Nonoko to show off her, er… talents. Her arsenal consisted of popular moves such as the Rainmaker, the People’s Elbow and a downsized High Fly Flow (which she calls the Pai Fly Flow and claims is an original move) all modified to emphasize her K-Cup bust. It turned out to be just what was needed for her and Yuka Sakazaki to win the match. Sakazaki believed they were able to win because they had bigger busts than their opponents. Shoko Nakajima was psyched to wrestle but for the time being wants to focus on winning her first singles match. She hopes to become a fast wrestler with cool moves. For her partner Ura Erika, it was her first wrestling match in over two years.

KANNA marked off the new beginning of Tokyo Joshi Pro by earning her first ever singles victory. Her opponent Ayumi Takada was pretty much dressed like Paige from WWE NXT. When asked what she wants Tokyo Joshi Pro to be, KANNA said it is a good organization with a good atmosphere and she wants it to continue like that. Takada said she was relieved to finally debut and felt amazing after her first match.

Tetsuya Koda announced that Eri Wakamatsu from Ice Ribbon has signed with Tokyo Joshi Pro. She explained that she was starting from scratch and she wasn’t sure if she could still use her Ice Ribbon name. Her debut match and possibly a new name have not been determined yet.

The show was supposed to begin with a performance by DPG, the band featuring Hiroshi Fukuda and Antonio Honda. But before they could begin, they received a message from one of their members saying she was quitting the band. Stephanie Ayumi was no where to be seen in the arena and her bandmates were shocked at the sudden news. Honda appeared dressed as a taoist monk and was able to summon Ayumi into the arena. Ayumi had written a letter to the band and read it out to them. She said she will leave the band after today’s performance to enter pro wrestling but that does not mean she will quit being their friend. The group performed their song “Demon Of The Ring” and everyone wished her luck as Stephanie Ayumi began her second life as Ayumi Takada. Lastly, Fukuda chopped Ayumi across her chest to give her fighting spirit. Ayumi fired back with a High Kick, knocking him down and setting her off on the right path.
