BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. NINE: HORROR BUSINESS”, 31/10/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans

1. Ram Kaichow & Chris Kaichow defeated Mad Dr. Ueki & Nurse Gore when Ram pinned Gore with the Rainmaker (?:??).
2. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Masahiro Takanashi with the Modified Canadian Backbreaker (?:??).
3. Wasabi Cream Puff Death Match: Hagane Shinno defeated Antonio Honda when Honda ate the Wasabi Cream Puff (?:??).
4. Mecha MAO (w/ Mad Dr. Ueki) defeated Chieko with a Body Press (?:??).

Things were not all as they seem for the visitors to the Halloween edition of Baka Gaijin + Friends. In the main event the room got a visit from the haunted spectre of Chieko, who was looking for a fight. Mad Dr. Ueki answered the challenge by calling forth his big experiment in its finished form. Earlier in the summer Dr. Ueki collected a sample of MAO’s DNA. Over time he infused Mecha Mummy with the DNA, morphing it into his ultimate creation… Mecha MAO! Using the powers of MAO and Mecha Mummy combined the merged fighter still had trouble shaking off Chieko. She used her ghostly powers to send MAO’s Rocket Punch towards Ueki instead of herself. Ueki then ordered MAO to self destruct but it resisted the command. Chieko tried to stop it too until MAO went ahead and caused its chest to explode. MAO then fell on top of Chieko which counted as a pin and resulted in a three count. When the dust settled MAO and Ueko embraced.

Both Antonio Honda and Hagane Shinno entered the ARENA Shimokitazawa dressed in bee costumes. They intended to play a song by their band Daisetz for the fans in attendance but forgot to bring their instruments. Each blamed each other and decided there was only one match they could do to solve their dispute… a Wasabi Cream Puff Death Match! Daisuke Kiso held out a pan filled with cream puffs, one of which was filled with wasabi. Every time a wrestler was pinned for a two count they would have to eat a cream puff. If it was the cream puff filled with wasabi then they would lose. Honda and Shinno pinned each other once but both ate a safe cream puff. Honda used Gongitsune to pin Shinno only for the third puff to be safe too. What looked to become a Bionic Elbow duel instead turned into Shinno pinning Honda with a Backslide Pin. With two puffs left Honda made his choice and spat it out into the fans! It was the wasabi puff meaning Shinno was the winner.

Masahiro Takanashi didn’t show up wearing any silly costumes because he thinks Halloween is for kids. He made fun of the audience for coming to the show all dressed up but that attracted the attention of Kazusada Higuchi in his sumo gear. He easily overpowered Takanashi which caused Takanashi to change tactics. He grabbed whatever he could of Higuchi whether it was a finger or an ear and started twisting. He then poured a glass of beer into Higuchi’s mouth and swirled his head around to get him drunk. He then grabbed this month’s ring announcer Shota (dressed as Super Mario) and threw him into Higuchi. That did nothing to Takanashi threw Higuchi head first into a wooden pillar. That did nothing either. If that wasn’t enough, Higuchi’s hard head no sold getting hit with a bamboo stick too! A ref bump gave Takanashi the chance to grab his SETUP World Tag Team Titles belt to use as a weapon but Shota stopped him. Shota grabbed the belt off him and took a swing. Takanashi ducked and Higuchi got hit instead. However Takanashi’s luck finally ran out when Shota gave him a Codebreaker and Higuchi lifted him up into the Canadian Backbreaker to make him give up in front of the revived referee.

The first signs of fun that awaited everyone was Chris Brookes showing up in full Ram Kaichow facepaint. The real Ram Kaichow didn’t like seeing Brookes behave just like her, movements and all. Their opponents were Mad Dr. Ueki & Dr. Gore, who showed up as Nurse Gore because Ueki is already the doctor here. Ueki took Kaichow lightly even when she was armed with a stapler. He encouraged her to staple his forehead and proudly showed that it didn’t hurt him. What did hurt him was Kaichow stapling him in the groin afterward. Brookes lifted Kaichow up onto his shoulers and propellar spun her around to kick Gore. Ueki & Gore did their own teamwork by piling on top of Kaichow together only for Brookes to break the pin with a Double Stomp. Brookes then blinded Gore with Ectoplasm and Kaichow pinned him with the Rainmaker. The two Kaichows then fought over each other to soak in the cheers for “Kaichow”.

At the end of the show Brookes announced the next event on 12th December will celebrate Baka Gaijin’s 1st Anniversary. It also already has a main event in place. Brookes will face Munetatsu Nakamura from Ganbare☆Pro! Brookes explained that when he wrestled in Japan for the first time five years ago, Nakamura was just a fan who bought his merchandise. It would be a special idea for Brookes to face somebody who begun as a fan of his and then became a pro wrestler.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. EIGHT: THE DIRECTOR’S CUT” Results

September 20, 2023

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. EIGHT: THE DIRECTOR’S CUT”, 20/09/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans

1. Special Single Match: Yoshihiko defeated Antonio Honda after the CRII from Yoshihiko’s handler (11:45).
2. Special Single Match: HARASHIMA defeated Mecha Mummy (w/ Mad Dr. Ueki) with the Somato (7:54).
3. Baliyan Akki defeated Mad Dr. Ueki with the Koryu (7:39).
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated El Hijo del Chris Brookes & El Hijo del Takanashi when Takanashi pinned Takanashi after the Hair Of The Dog with Brookes (12:37).
5. Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Monomoth & Dr. Gore when Brookes pinned Monomoth with the Praying Mantis Bomb (6:55).

The crowd at ARENA Shimokitazawa were seeing double at this month’s Baka Gaijin + Friends when CDK took on… ChieDK! Their opponents MAO & Chie Koishikawa entered the room in full CDK cosplay and were announced as El Hijo del Chris Brookes & El Hijo del Takanashi respectively. MAO & Koishikawa moved around in a drunken manner similar to Takanashi while MAO wouldn’t stop vaping. The two teams fought around the room, dragging Yuki Ueno into the action. But in the end CDK defeated their doppelgangers, proving you cannot beat the originals.

That wasn’t the end though because CDK found themselves taking part in an extra match afterwards. They were feeling invincible after the main event and called for another tag team to fight them. Out came two wrestlers from Thailand and Singapore. Monomoth & Dr. Gore were here to accept the challenge. Monomoth almost scored the three count with a Bridging School Boy but Brookes kicked out and gave him the Praying Mantis Bomb. CDK ended the night with two wins back to back.

The mad doctor’s experiments aren’t working out for him this month. Mad Dr. Ueki brought Mecha Mummy back to Baka Gaijin for a big singles match against HARASHIMA. For HARASHIMA’s first time in Baka Gaijin he figured out his surroundings well. He grabbed onto the ceiling above, swung back and forth for momentum and landed a Body Press onto Mummy. Ueki got involved in the match but his teamwork with Mummy kept backfiring and leaving him harmed. HARASHIMA knocked Mummy into Ueki with a High Kick and then found room to charge in and hit the Somato to win.

Ueki blamed Mummy for losing and wanted to set an example by winning a match himself. He made an open challenge to any wrestler to fight him right now. The challenge was answered by Baliyan Akki! Ueki shit talked his opponent until Akki hit him to start the impromptu match. Akki lifted him up for a Back Drop but Ueki grabbed onto a ceiling rail and started choking Akki with a Headscissors. The move proved effective until Akki slumped down, causing Ueki to lose his grip from the ceiling and fall. Ueki did manage to take out a syringe and jab Akki with it, drawing out a sample of his DNA. Ueki then threw Mummy’s Rocket Fist but Akki ducked and the fist knocked out Daisuke Kiso instead. Mummy grabbed its fist, loaded up and fired another Rocket Punch but Akki ducked again and this time Ueki took the blast. Akki then rolled Ueki up in a School Boy and a recovered Kiso counted the pin.

Antonio Honda kicked off the show with a mighty challenge against Yoshihiko. Honda wanted to win big so he attempted to do the Tenzan Tombstone Driver. Yoshihiko avoided it an after several tries gave Honda a Piledriver. It wanted to do a big dive from the counter but Honda stopped Yoshihiko by attacking its “shadow”. The “shadow” suddenly lost his mask, revealing the face of El Phantasmo underneath! He grabbed Honda by his nipples and dropped him on the floor with the CRII before going back to handling Yoshihiko so the doll could pin Honda and win.

Itoh’s Return From USA, Two Sisters Visit GanJo, Next Baka Gaijin Card, SOG Tag Title Rematch

September 6, 2023

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT ’23 ~RIKA TATSUMI LOCAL TRIUMPH~”, 16/09/2023
Nagano Kissei Bunka Hall Middle Hall

6. Aja Kong, Yuki Aino & Raku Vs Shoko Nakajima, Nao Kakuta & Moka Miyamoto
7. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe Vs Miyu Yamashita & Hyper Misao

The return of Maki Itoh to Tokyo Joshi Pro from her latest American adventure sees her take on HIMAWARI first and foremost. Aja Kong is also back to say hello to everyone by bashing a steel can over their heads.

GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO MINEL VATON SAGA ’23”, 17/09/2023
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. Ice Ribbon Offer Match: Ibuki Hoshi Vs Arisa Shinose
2. Alex Lee Vs Echika Miyabi
3. Sumire Natsu & Riara Vs Miyako Matsumoto & Kaho Kobayashi
4. Miyuki Takase & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Tomoka Inaba & Azusa Inaba
5. YuuRI Vs Haruka Umesaki

The next Ganbare☆Joshi features a tag team of sisters for the first time. Tomoka Inaba & Azusa Inaba from JTO are sisters and they get to team together on a GanJo event before Yuna Manase & Ami Manase can.

There were a few times around five years ago when Kaho Kobayashi wrestled on Ganbare☆Pro shows. This will be her first time in GanJo.

Ibuki Hoshi shows up in GanJo for the first time since winning the ICEx∞ Title from YuuRI. Hopefully there’s no hard feelings between them.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. EIGHT: THE DIRECTOR’S CUT”, 20/09/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa

1. Special Single Match: Yoshihiko Vs Antonio Honda
2. Special Single Match: Mecha Mummy (w/ Mad Dr. Ueki) Vs HARASHIMA
3. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs MAO & Chie Koishikawa

The high energy tag team of MAO & Chie Koishikawa faces their biggest challenge yet. What ideas can they think of against CDK?

Mad Dr. Ueki is busy reprogramming Mecha Mummy to take on the mighty force that is HARASHIMA. No amount of feeding VHS tapes to Mummy will make up for all of the training HARASHIMA does to keep himself in top condition.

After getting thrown out of a window by Chris Brookes on the last show, Yoshihiko gets a less violent opponent on this show. Although I do remember that time Antonio Honda burst Yoshihiko’s head open with a basic Knee Drop.

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRI GIRI CHOP! 2023”, 01/10/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

Former champions Hentai Punch Drunkers get a rematch with Ground Absolute for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles. If Punch Drunkers ever become the champions again they will get to hold the physical title belts that never existed during their first reign.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. SEVEN: CHRISSY B’S BIRTHDAY BASH” Results

August 24, 2023

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. SEVEN: CHRISSY B’S BIRTHDAY BASH”, 24/08/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
65 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Yoshihiko with a Stomping Texas Cloverleaf (10:53).
2. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada defeated Mecha Mummy (w/ Mad Dr. Ueki) by Pinfall (14:36).
3. Special Single Match: Ram Kaichow defeated Antonio Honda with the Onryo Clutch (9:57).
4. Special Single Match: Hagane Shinno defeated Maya Yukihi with the Ranhei (14:28).

Oh hey, today is Chris Brookes’s birthday! What better way to celebrate it than with a Baka Gaijin + Friends show? Things were a little different this time because a lot of the usual crew were busy travelling over to England for the weekend. Brookes kept himself to the opening match so the main event instead went to Hagane Shinno and Maya Yukihi. The two kept most of the match within the black mat on the floor where Yukihi would reach out to fans in order to rope break Shinno’s submission holds. Shinno would change tactics by doing jumping attacks off of the bar counter. Yukihi’s biggest nearfall came from using the Tiger Driver. Shinno kicked out and traded different pinning combinations with his opponent until he got the three count with the Ranhei.

In the opening moments of the 3rd Match, Ram Kaichow made Antonio Honda cry, kept giving him the middle fingers and threw invisible shuriken stars at him. Honda fought back by pulling Kaichow’s hair and choking her with a folding fan. However Kaichow kicked Honda down when he started telling the Gongitsune story. Honda got to tell the story later by including things Kaichow likes such as Sanrio characters so she wouldn’t interrupt him. The Gongitsune attack missed Kaichow and hit the ref, hurting him so much he couldn’t see Kaichow pinning Honda with the Rainmaker. Honda hit the Bionic Elbow and then the Tenzan Tombstone Driver but Kaichow kicked out. Kaichow took advantage of Honda complaining to the ref by throwing Ectoplasm into his face and then rolling him over with the Onryo Clutch for the win.

Mecha Mummy performed many different wrestling references in its match against Takeshi Masada because Mad Dr. Ueki uploaded Mummy with a bunch of different wrestling tapes to ensure it would be at high performance. Mummy threw Masada around with Manami Toyota style Hair Whips, jogged on the spot like Hiroshi Hase, began speaking like Super Delphin and cut promos on the microphone like Atsushi Onita. The last one led to Mummy grabbing a bottle of water, splashing it around and pouring the bottle over its own head. Unfortunately Mecha Mummy can’t handle having any water in its system and broke down, leaving Masada to easily pin it.

Brookes took on Yoshihiko in the opener and told the fans he was going to put the KO-D Openweight Title on the line because it’s his birthday! The referee Daisuke Kiso held the title belt into the air but was suddenly interrupted by the voice of DDT’s other referee Yukinori Matsui. The voice told Brookes he isn’t allowed to suddenly defend the KO-D Title whenever he wants so the match has to be a normal non-title bout. Brookes apologised and the match began. He gave Yoshihiko a Giant Swing but Yoshihiko fought back with a Sunset Power Bomb from the top of some stools. They fought past the fans over to a window where Brookes threw Yoshihiko out of the building down several stories to the street below! Brookes wanted the match to end by countout but Yoshihiko made it back into the room still ready to fight. It almost choked out Brookes with a Sleeper Hold but Brookes escape, Dropkicked the doll into the audience and then attacked it with a stool. Brookes did a Diving Double Stomp onto Yoshihiko’s head and applied an Arm-Trapped Texas Cloverleaf to make it give up.

Intermission featured a musical performance by Kaori Masukodera. She sang a setlist of pro wrestling entrance themes. She begun with “Kaze Ni Nare” aided by Takayuki Ueki using a hairdryer to make a wind blowing effect. She then changed into a home made Jushin Liger costume to sing “Ikari no Jushin”. When she finished that she then changed clothes again, this time to impersonate Atsushi Onita, water spitting included.

At the end of the show everybody came out and sang Happy Birthday to Brookes. He then talked about Drew Parker and the recent unexpected news of his retirement from pro wrestling. Brookes told the fans he misses Parker and didn’t get the chance to say goodbye to him so he got the audience to applaud for everything Parker has done in the last four years. It takes a lot of work and pressure to put the Baka Gaijin shows together but the brand is not just about Brookes and Parker anymore. Everybody there is Baka Gaijin so the shows will continue!

Before I Go To All In This Weekend

August 23, 2023

I’ll be travelling to England this weekend to see AEW in Wembley. I will also be at the EVE/ChocoPro show on Saturday night to see what Miyu Yamashita will get up to. I’ll be around to post the results for tomorrow’s Baka Gaijin show but after that my next post here won’t be until Monday night at the very earliest. If the build up of news and reports after I come back is too much I may delay this month’s DDT Around The World article by a few days. But I’m not going to get worried over that right now. Should be a fun weekend.

In a preview of the upcoming Princess Tag Team Titles tournament, four of the teams involved will be put into an 8-Woman Tag Match. A lottery will determine which teams will be teaming up with each other. The four taking part are Daydream, Kyoraku Kyomei, Toyo Mates and Raku & Pom Harajuku.

A first time ever singles match between Mizuki and Juria Nagano takes place on the show.

Miyu Yamashita, Nao Kakuta and Arisu Endo will still be absent for the same reasons they are missing this weekend’s Osaka show. Yamashita is in England, Kakuta is in a stage play and Endo is injured.

DDT “DRAMATIC EXPLOSION 2023”, 18/09/2023
Nagoya International Conference Center Event Hall

1. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita & Yoshitatsu Vs Jun Akiyama & Kotaro Suzuki

It used to be that Jun Akiyama never wanted to do Explosion Death Matches and now he’s going to do two in the same month! Akiyama already has one coming up on 9th September and now Atsushi Onita convinced him to take part in another one nine days later. However if Akiyama’s team beats Onita’s team on the 9th then Akiyama & Kotaro Suzuki’s match here against Onita & Yoshitatsu will have the All Asia Tag Team Titles on the line. If not then this will be a non-title match. Either way, Onita has dragged Akiyama into doing his specialty death match twice!

7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Daisuke Sasaki & KANON Vs Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toy Kojima

The final image everyone saw at the end of “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023” was Konosuke Takeshita and Daisuke Sasaki shaking hands in a hallway backstage. Now we see Takeshita is teaming up with DAMNATION T.A to take on The 37KAMIINA! Takeshita denies having any intention of joining DAMNATION T.A. Instead he claims The 37KAMIINA no longer needs him so he now wants to stand across the ring from them. That Takeshita is choosing to team with Sasaki & KANON in order to do this is an unusual turn of events. It’s another chance for Yuki Ueno to chase after his friend. Toy Kojima also hasn’t been happy with Takeshita’s change in behaviour. MAO is a wild card coming out of Sumo Hall with a big win behind him.

Today Kazuki Hirata announced the match stipulation for his DDT Exteme Title defence against HARASHIMA. His big idea to even the odds is to use every idea he has. So it’s a Captain’s Fall Handicap Match with no tags needed, you only need a 2 count pinfall to win and HARASHIMA is on his own while Hirata’s team is filled up with a bunch of inanimate objects.

Two injuries came out this weekend. Tetsuya Endo suffered a left hand injury and later found out his fractured a metacarpal bone. Toru Owashi had a neck injury that was then diagnosed as a cervical spine injury. Both are now out of action with no timetable yet for either to return.

BASARA “BASARA 226 ~HAKUSEKIREI NO YORU~”, 06/08/2023

1. Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Lil’ Kraken

5. Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
6. Union MAX Next Challenger Match: FUMA Vs Ryota Nakatsu

Both FUMA and Ryota Nakatsu wanted to be the next challenger for the Union MAX Title so we’re getting a No. 1 Contender’s match between them.

KUBITO returns for his first match since April. He’s been out of action ever since dealing with health problems involving his pancreas.

Shinichiro Tominaga comes over to pay BASARA a visit. Although he is a regular with Ganbare☆Pro his actual home promotion is with a small indy in Tokyo called Come On Wrestling Party.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. SEVEN: CHRISSY B’S BIRTHDAY BASH”, 24/08/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa

1. Special Single Match: Mecha Mummy (w/ Mad Dr. Ueki) Vs Takeshi Masada
2. Special Single Match: Antonio Honda Vs Ram Kaichow
3. Special Single Match: Hagane Shinno Vs Maya Yukihi

The next Baka Gaijin + Friends show is also a big birthday party for Chris Brookes! Among the invited guests are Yoshihiko, Hagane Shinno, Maya Yukihi, Antonio Honda, Ram Kaichow, Mecha Mummy and Takeshi Masada.

Looks like Takayuki Ueki is fully adopting a mad doctor gimmick for these shows.

BASARA “BASARA 227 ~UTAGE~”, 29/08/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. IRON FIST Tag Team Titles: Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
2. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Winner Of 06/08 Match

The winner of FUMA Vs Nakatsu will face Takumi Tsukamoto for the MAX Title. Tsukamoto wanted to wait until the 29th August show for his next title defence because that show is when BASARA will be going back to serving all you can drink beers at Shin-Kiba 1st RING.

Sento Minzoku are now the undisputed IRON FIST Tag Team Champions but they have former two time champions Speed Of Sounds as their next challengers.

DDT “DDT BIG BANG 2023”, 09/09/2023
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Pheromones Vs Subjugation Final Match! Special Single Match ~ Dissolution Contra Vice President: Yuki “Sexy” Iino (w/ Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno) Vs Akito
2. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie

Sunday was a dream come true for Brookes after he won the KO-D Openweight Title. He now has a big challenge in the form of Shigehiro Irie to prepare for this September. Irie coming out to challenge him was a surprise because Brookes expected somebody like Ueno to do that first. The two know each other from wrestling in Europe and they currently have a 1-1 singles record together. Irie has world domination on his mind so he intends to win the KO-D Title and bring it with him on his upcoming overseas tours (because that worked out sooooo well last time).

Akito has called out Pheromones and wants to put an end to their feud once and for all. For real this time. No seriously. He means it. He will face Yuki Iino in a match that will not be prematurely stopped or called off for any reason. If Akito wins then Pheromones must disband. However Danshoku Dieno complained that the match was put together without Akito putting anything at risk. After having a public meeting with Dieno today, Akito agreed to put his Vice President position on the line!

“MASAHIRO TAKANASHI 20TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW”, 19/09/2023
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Mei Suruga Vs Minoru Suzuki
2. Chris Brookes Vs Masahiro Takanashi

For the first time ever Mei Suruga takes on Minoru Suzuki in what will surely become a bloodbath! What caused Masahiro Takanashi to come up with such a sadistic idea for a match?

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2023”, 24/09/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Universal Title: Matt Cardona (w/ Steph De Lander) (c) Vs Maki Itoh

The next DDT Universal Title match brings one of the big feuds in GCW over to Japan. Matt Cardona is still soaking in the glory of his title win and now calls the belt the DMK (Death Match King) Universal Championship. Meanwhile Steph De Lander is wondering if she would go on a date with the injured Tetsuya Endo as long as he pays for every single thing she wants. Maki Itoh was so annoyed to see Cardona win the title she immediately sent a video to DDT demanding a title shot. She is certain she is the right person to bring the belt back to DDT and restore its prestige.
