BASARA “BASARA 306 ~UTAGE~”, 01/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Yasu Urano defeated Takeru Inoue with a Headlock (9:10).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida defeated Banana Senga and Gouma Ryu (9:28).
3. SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Isami Kodaka & Shuji Ishikawa when SAGAT pinned Ishikawa with the Gore Grind (11:47).
4. 4 Way Tag Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato, Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura and Lil’ Kraken & Akira Jo when Hiroshi pinned Kraken with the Perfect Plex (8:57).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated FUMA & Seiya Morohashi when Kamino pinned FUMA with the Lariat (18:50).
*V2 for Aijin Tag.
With a second successful title defence having just taken place, Aijin Tag are feeling like they are BASARA’s best team out there. They asked for any other teams to come out and challenge them when Yasu Urano appeared. Urano then called down Minoru Fujita to join him. They talked about the Fujita Pro Wrestling School Youtube channel that has been running for around six years now yet neither of them can really explain what the entire project is meant to be. If it’s a marketing brand then they need to promote it somehow and Urano thinks the best way to do that is turn the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles into the Fujita Pro Wrestling School Tag Team Titles. The two teams then got into a fight and while Aijin Tag came out on top, Urano & Fujita fled the ring with one of the tag title belts. They demanded to get a title match at 29th May, which Aijin Tag accepted.
Meanwhile FUMA & Seiya Morohashi began to blame each other backstage over losing in the main event. Morohashi thought FUMA could have finished the champions off if he had fought a little harder. FUMA suggested he could have been able to submit Takato Nakano or Masato Kamino if Morohashi did a better job of holding the other wrestler back. The two ended up challenging each other to a match on 29th May.
A regular Spear followed by the Gore Grind resulted in SAGAT scoring a surprise victory over Shuji Ishikawa. He quickly challenged him for the Union MAX Title on 29th May. Ishikawa accepted because he wants to get revenge on SAGAT for being the first person in BASARA to pin him for a three count.
It’s unusual to see a wrestler enter a Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial for the second time and even more unusual when it happens in a short amount of time. Ayato Yoshida was back in the court room just over a month after his first appearance for the alleged crime of threatening Gouma Ryu somewhere in Tokyo on 30th April. He tried to grab the microphone from Banana Senga but unintentionally threw him down, adding a second charge to this trial. The witness was a referee who complained about Yoshida calling him shitty but Yoshida’s defence was to ask what is wrong with telling a referee he is crap at his job? Eventually everyone in the trial wanted to fight Yoshida but he easily defeated all of them at once to be proven Not Guilty. He continued to beat a few of them around the ring while he was leaving.

BASARA “BASARA 303 ~UTAGE~”, 27/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Kaji Tomato defeated Takeru Inoue with the Speed (8:18).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Yoshida submitted Ryu and Senga with a Double Half Crab Hold (8:04).
3. The Outsider & Sumo Master defeated Master T & Judomaster when The Outsider pinned Judomaster with the V Slider (9:17).
4. SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita defeated Daichi Kazato, Tsutomu Oosugi & Shuji Ishikawa when SAGAT pinned Kazato with the Gore Grind (11:31).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) when Nakano pinned Shimomura with the Takagari (20:08).
*Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura fail in V3. Aijin Tag become the 16th Iron Fist Tag Team Champions!
Aijin Tag have now become the three time Iron Fist Tag Team Champions but they already have their first challengers approaching. When Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino were celebrating their victory, SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken entered the ring to challenge them for the belts. It is SAGAT’s idea because Kraken had to remind him they already got a title shot back in January. Nakano told them they have no principles but SAGAT’s argument that if they were to just wait for another title shot it wouldn’t come. Aijin Tag accepted his reasoning and will put the titles on the line in Osaka on 12th April. Backstage Nakano told Kamino their next goal should be to break the record for most title defences because the teams that are on top of that list are freelancers like Speed Of Sounds and Astronauts. Nakano thinks a BASARA affiliated team like Aijin Tag deserves to hold the record instead!
Something unprecidented happened in regards to Match #3. Both Ryota Nakatsu and FUMA suddenly suffered from love sickness and had to pull out of the show at the last minute. BASARA were able to find some mysterious newcomers to fill in for the missing wrestlers. Judomaster was now teaming with Master T instead of FUMA and Yuki Ishida now had The Outsider as his partner. Ishida was angry over this turn of events because today was meant to be Harimao’s last appearance in BASARA as a unit. The remaining members Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura came to the show to be in their corner. Ishida stormed out of the match and left The Outsider to fight by himself. But when things were going bad for The Outsider, he called for help from somebody named Sumo Master. And wouldn’t you know it, Sumo Master suddenly appeared and came to the rescue.
Ayato Yoshida was not a popular person in the court room today. Everyone was booing him and he didn’t put up much effort towards changing people’s minds. He was on trial for allegedly shouting verbal abuse towards Minoru Fujita. The defence provided by Gouma Ryu is that kind of behaviour is sometimes acceptable between pro wrestlers while they fight in the ring. However, Banana Senga had evidence that showed the nasty comments were made inside the locker room. Fujita was called up as a witness and he said Yoshida thinks of him like his junior which is why he treats him this way. Ryu gave up trying to defend Yoshida and teamed up with Senga to fight him. Yoshida easily beat the two of them and by winning the match he was acquitted of any wrong doing.

Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi doesn’t appear to be available for the show. That means Judomaster gets called up for the first time in a while. Kaji Tomato is on the show too.
For the first time in 2026 BASARA will go back to the courtroom for a Turnabout Pro Wrestling trial. Ayato Yoshida will be stepping into stand as the defendant while Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga will argue their cases over him. What Yoshida is on trial for hasn’t been revealed yet.
DDT “DDT X MOP WRESTLE TOUR 2026 IN MITSUI OUTLET TAMA MINAMIOSAWA”, 28/03/2026
Tokyo Mitsui Outlet Park Tama Minamiosawa
1. MOP Tag Team Titles: X & X Vs X & X
A new business deal has been put together this year for DDT to hold wrestling shows at different Mitsui Outlet Park shopping centers. As part of this deal a new championship has been created to be exclusively defended at these shows. The inaugural MOP Tag Team Champions will be crowned at the first show being held at the end of the month. There will be at least two other shows as part of the tour happening in April.

2. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs X
One of the memorable interactions that happened at last year’s Toru Yano Vs Super Sasadango Machine one match show was Antonio Honda and YOH bonding over a Gongitsune joke. YOH has a hatred of foxes going back to when he was bitten by one as a child but Honda got him to join in with telling the joke. Now almost one year later they will meet in the ring again, this time one on one against each other in a wrestling match!

DDT also has their sponsorship with Yamada Suisan going on for another year. The seafood wrestling storyline has taken a turn with the appearance of Unagi Mask Woman. She was said to be just a Yamada Suisan employee who wanted to become a pro wrestler but the real story is that she, Unagi Mask and Super Unagi Mask are all siblings who spent their lives near each other without ever knowing about it! The family needs to be a united force because Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda have formed an alliance with Aja Kong to wipe out the sea food loving wrestlers!

BASARA “BASARA 294 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~”, 11/12/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Wrestle Brain Jr. Heavyweight Title: Masato Kamino (c) defeated Takeru Inoue with the Lariat (11:16).
*V1 for Masato Kamino.
2. YJF Cruiserweight Title: Ayumu Honda (2) (c) defeated FUMA (1).
2a. Ayumu Honda (1) defeated FUMA (0) by Disqualification for ignoring the referee’s orders (2:44).
2b. FUMA (1) defeated Ayumu Honda (1) with a Kimura Lock (1:29).
2c. Ayumu Honda (2) defeated FUMA (1) with a Seoi-nage (1:42).
*V3 for Ayumu Honda.
3. TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto, Banana Senga & KURO-OBI (c) defeated SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita when KURO-OBI submitted Kraken with an Ankle Lock (10:13).
*V3 for Kokutai Gundan.
4. BJW Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kosuke Sato (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Bloody Sunday (12:46).
*V4 for Kosuke Sato.
5. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Seiya Morohashi with La Magistral Cradle (17:16).
*V6 for Ryota Nakatsu.
A close shave for Ryota Nakatsu almost put an end to his Union MAX Title reign before his big defence at the end of the year. Seiya Morohashi countered the V Slider into the Crippler Crossface and Nakatsu got out of it to pin him with La Magistral Cradle. He praised Morohashi after the match for being such a noble macho man and then sent a message to Shuji Ishikawa for their title match on 28th December. The match was already on the schedule but Nakatsu felt it would be pointless if he didn’t publicly challenge Ishikawa beforehand. Backstage he said he now has new moves like La Magistral and the Super Figure 4 Arm Lock that will give him a good chance to beat Ishikawa. Morohashi complained that he didn’t lose and promised to keep appearing in BASARA to get revenge.
Both Takato Nakano and Kosuke Sato have known each other since high school and have trained together at the Hamaguchi Dojo. They were able to convince Big Japan and BASARA to let them have a BJW Jr. Heavyweight Title today. It was Nakano’s third shot at the championship but he couldn’t win it here. He has one more chance coming up on 30th December when BJW is holding a 6-Man Championship Scramble style match with Sato and Nakano both taking part. Sato wanted to see Isami Kodaka at today’s show but he wasn’t there so he left a message for him to get better and come back soon.
The entire show consisted of nothing but title matches up and down the card. Takumi Tsukamoto, Banana Senga & KURO-OBI have formed a team in TTT called Kokutai Gundan and they all wrestle while wearing black belts. They are the current TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Champions and they were able to successfully defend them against the Super Family.
The YJF Cruiserweight Title is defended in Best 2 Out Of 3 Matches where only throws and grappling moves are permitted. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi served as the referee for the title match and even disqualified FUMA in the first match when he kept ignoring his instructions. FUMA made up for it in the second match by quickly tapping out Ayumu Honda with a Kimura Lock. But in the deciding round Honda scored the winning point with a Judo throw to retain the championship. After the match Daiki Shimomura walked out and demanded another shot at the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. Hiroshi spoke on behalf of Honda and said he wouldn’t fight a weakling like Shimomura again. But when Shimomura invited Takumi Tsukamoto out to be his tag partner, Hiroshi said Honda is interested in fighting him so they can do the title match on 27th December.
Last but not least, Masato Kamino defeated Takeru Inoue to defend the Wrestle Brain Jr. Heavyweight Title. Five title matches on the show and none of them changed hands.

To whoever wanted to see a reunion of The Sailor Boys you are getting your wish for the holidays. Super Japan have decided to book Taiji Ishimori and get him back together with The Brahman Brothers. It looks like they will get to stick to their current personas but Ishimori did previously come to terms with his embarrassing past gimmick before. He learned to embrace it to avoid having mind games played against him. To add even more Toryumon flavour to the match, the three of them will be facing three other men who carry the “Dragon Gene” inside them: Shuji Kondo, Ken Ohka & Mac Matsushita.

A knee injury has prevented Jada Stone from travelling to Japan so she is no longer able to appear at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. A new opponent is needed for Arisu Endo so she will now face Priscilla Kelly in the match with the vacant International Princess Title on the line. Pom Harajuku has been taken out of the Battle Royal to become Rika Tatsumi’s new opponent. That match will also have special rules applied which will be announced as soon as they are determined.
I don’t know if I can get a preview of the show completed before Saturday. I’ve been feeling under the weather lately which stopped me from writing one. One might be posted on Friday night but don’t take that as a promise.

The full card for “CHARISMANIAxMANIAxMANIA” has been revealed although the match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet. Naohiro Katsumi and To-y both get added to the Togo Family Vs DDT Match, a Gauntlet Tag match dedicated to the still alive Daisuke Sasaki will fill up most of the show. Yasutaka Oosera from Michinoku Pro is teaming up with Ilusion which makes me wonder what the connection is there. We also have the return of Sumicaras in there too.

1. Special Tag Match: Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku Vs Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono
2. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Shinya Aoki
So what unusual match making is Super Japan coming up with this time? How about pairing Suwama and Yuki Kamifuku together because they are both from Fujiwara City? Cool, now what if they go against Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono the two wrestlers who get up to nutty things whenever they are left to their own devices? Kamifuku and Kuroshio have wrestled each other before (and Kamifuku has a win over Kuroshio) but Suwama and Hanazono taking each other on sounds like something new.

BASARA “BASARA 273 ~UTAGE AOI – SOUEN~”, 14/03/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Ryuichi Sekine & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated KUBITO & Lil’ Kraken when Sekine submitted Kraken with the Let’s Combine (11:03).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Takeru Inoue defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Inoue pinned Senga with the Lockdown (8:42).
3. 3 Way Tag Match: Kaji Tomato & Kota Sekifuda defeated Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi and Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Sekifuda pinned Kazato after the Speedman (12:39).
4. Daiki Shimomura defeated FUMA with La Magistral Cradle (14:39).
5. Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto defeated SAGAT & Ryota Nakatsu when Kodaka pinned SAGAT With the Isamiashi Zan (19:54).
Today was a fresh start for Isami Kodaka. He appeared wearing a new costume as well as sporting a fresh hair dye job. However he hasn’t quite moved on from Sento Minzoku yet. After winning in the main event, Kodaka challenged Ryota Nakatsu for the Union MAX Title with the goal of becoming champion and then defending the belt against all other former members of the disbanded group! Nakatsu agreed to have the title match in Kodaka’s hometown of Yokohama on 12th April.
Daiki Shimomura feels like he’s done all that he can after he beat FUMA in a singles match today. With Keisuke Ishii by his side he thinks they can’t lose when they face FUMA & Ryuichi Sekine for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on 12th April. All he can do until then is maybe think up of a tag team name.
The injured Takeru Inoue was put on trial accused of habitual gambling, referencing a recent news story about the comedian Takahira Kuruma getting in trouble for similar reasons. Both Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga pressured him with questions, asking him why he chose to train with HEAT-UP first before joining BASARA and insinuating that Inoue has never had a girlfriend. That last one caused Inoue to snap because he had four girlfriends in total when he was in high school. Inoue told the two to take wrestling seriously and ended up beating the both of them in a match to be declared Not Guilty.

2. FUMA defeated Ryuichi Sekine with the Jawbreaker (12:37).
3. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Minoru Fujita defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Fujita pinned Ryu after a Double Kawazu-gake Otoshi (8:51).
4. 3 Way Tag Match – No Tag Rules: Daiki Shimomura & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated KUBITO & Daichi Kazato Yasu Urano & Judomaster when Shimomura pinned Kazato after a Standing Moonsault/Jackknife Pin Combo (10:04).
5. Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken defeated Isami Kodaka, Takumi Tsukamoto & Ryota Nakatsu when Kamino pinned Nakatsu with the Lariat (15:34).
After the main event Lil’ Kraken started a rap and was about to challenge Masato Kamino for the Union MAX Title. However Takato Nakano stopped Kraken with a Dropkick and decided to challenge Kamino instead! He sees Kamino currently has three indie championships (the other two are a TTT Indie Unified Six Man Tag Team Title and the Shinjuku Nichome ILNP Title) but the MAX Title is the only one he wants. Kamino said it will be a rare match where Aijin Tag fights each other. He will crush his partner because he is creating a new era and he’s not asking Nakano to follow him.
Backstage after the show Kamino said there are two wrestlers who beat him last year that he wants to get revenge on. So on 21st January he wants a match against Daisuke Sekimoto & Kuma Arashi! He’ll go through that match first and then have his title bout with Nakano on a later date.
Minoru Fujita is on a break from wrestling in BASARA but he was still called in for a Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial. Banana Senga spent more time trying to speak like Kenny Omega and also wishing Tsutomu Oosugi a happy birthday than talking about the trial. He eventually accused Fujita of fraud because BASARA was still paying him during his time off. Fujita easily defeated Senga and Gouma Ryu to convince the ref/judge he is not guilty.
After the trial Isami Kodaka announced that Sento Minzoku is splitting up! The unit is disbanding in order to let Ryuichi Sekine fight more often without them as well as to help Daiki Shimomura’s future development. He and Fujita came to the decision on the car ride home after Fujita lost the MAX Title. Their last match as a group will be on 10th February.
FUMA told Sekine after their match that he woke up today at 5am to work on his farm before coming over to Shin-Kiba 1st RING. He’s proud to be a pro wrestler and asks if Sekine feels the same? He wants the two of them as part-time farmers to continue working hard in BASARA.

He is also going to challenge Manabu Soya for the GHC National Title soon as part of this sudden turn of events.

We’re not done with Poison Sawada JULIE just yet. He is sticking around for another show as the special guest referee for Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao. That’s not all, his presence means the match is also going to be a Lumbersnake Death Match! The match rules will be announced at the show but the name suggests it is a Lumberjack Match where all of the lumberjacks will be controlled by Sawada’s snake magic.
A few days ago I asked if Tokyo Joshi Pro was going to dive into the loaded joshi free agency scene this year. Then on New Year’s Day they announced at noon on the dot that Mifu Ashida has joined the company. Ashida was among the group of wrestlers from Ice Ribbon who announced in November that they would be leaving the company over payment issues. Ashida only just had her last match with the company on New Year’s Eve. She has a background in cheerleading and became a pro wrestler in 2023 after she was cast in a movie called “THE CHALLENGER: Ring Of Hope” that Ice Ribbon helped produce.
BASARA “BASARA 266 ~SOUEN~”, 10/01/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Minoru Fujita Vs Gouma Ryu Vs Banana Senga
2. SAGAT Vs Takeru Inoue
3. 3 Way Tag Match: KUBITO & Daichi Kazato Vs Daiki Shimomura & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Yasu Urano Vs Judomaster

5. Ryuichi Sekine Vs FUMA
Minoru Fujita has gone from from losing the championship straight to the courthouse, er… ring. Always sad to see a champion spiral out of control after they lose their title. What does Banana Senga have on him and can Gouma Ryu get him out of trouble?
GANBARE☆PRO “NEW YEAR’S BLUES 2025”, 13/01/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Shota Kawakami
2. Shigehiro Irie, Rekka & Moeka Haruhi Vs Hartley Jackson, Choun-Shiryu & HARUKAZE
3. Tyson Maeguchi Vs Fuminori Abe
4. Kitsune World Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Yuna Manase Vs YuuRI
5. Shinichiro Tomingaga Return Match: Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shinichiro Tomingaga & Daisuke®️
6. Yumehito Imanari Vs Yasu Urano
Many years ago (2017 to be exact) Yumehito Imanari lost a match to Yasu Urano by submitting to a Headlock. Now this isn’t actually as pathetic as it sounds because Urano has used the move to win matches several times in his career. It’s rare but does happen. With that being said, it is a loss that still haunts Imanari so right after he won the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title, he brought up that memory as a reason to challenge Urano to a match. Ganbare☆Pro have not decided to make it a title match yet but Imanari wants to put the belt on the line.
Last May was when Shinichiro Tomingaga blew out his Achilles tendon. After almost 8 months on the shelf he is ready to come back and make up for lost time.
Before Ganbare☆Joshi holds its joint show with Kitsune on 28th January there is the little matter of who should face MICHIKO for the Kitsune World Title to sort out first. Obviously Yuna Manase wants to get a rematch so she can win the title back. But YuuRI also showed interest in challenging MICHIKO for the title. The only way to solve this conundrum is to have Manase and YuuRI fight each other for the No. 1 Contendership.
Tyson Maeguchi Vs Fuminori Abe sounds like a match that is going to hurt.

DNA “DNA 10TH ANNIVERSARY”, 28/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE
312 Fans – No Vacancy
1. MAO & Mizuki Watase Vs Yuki Iino & Masato Kamino ended in a Time Limit Draw (15:00).
2. Akira Jo & Yuki Ishida defeated Choun-Shiryu & Rekka when Jo pinned Shiryu with the Spinebuster (8:21).
3. Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Yuni with the German Suplex (10:55).
4. Banana Senga & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daiki Shimomura & Check Shimatani when Oosugi pinned Shimomura with the Pictures At An Exhibition (13:42).
5. Kota Umeda, Ryota Nakatsu & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Keigo Nakamura, To-y & Yuya Koroku when Umeda pinned Nakamura with a Right High Kick (15:00).
6. Yuki Ueno defeated Diego with the WR (16:22).
During the Autumn of 2024 DDT surprised everyone by unveiling an entire class of pro wrestling students ready to make their debuts. They were all part of a sub-brand called DNA (DDT New Attitude) and its first show was held on 24th November of that year. Some of the wrestlers came and went but many were around for DNA’s run until 2018 when the generation was ready to graduate into full time pro wrestlers for DDT or its other brands. The generation reunited here today to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of DNA’s first show. Those who are still active in wrestling wanted to show how much they have grown since then while a few of those who moved on from the ring showed up to see old friends again.
The main event was planned to be Yuki Ueno against Shunma Katsumata but an injury forced Katsumata to pull out of the match. Diego, the wrestler from Chile who wrestled on DNA shows as Guanchulo offered to step in as Katsumata’s replacement as a favor for his Los Amigos tag partner. Diego tried to win by using the Crossface Lock but Ueno fought back with Dropkicks and pinned him with the WR. Ueno said when he started his wrestling career in DNA he didn’t know what to do but Diego was there to make his life in the dorm better. He told Diego that they should have another match either in Japan or Chile. He also wants the match with Katsumata to happen in a DNA ring eventually. Ueno wonders maybe he and Diego can team together and beat up Katsumata instead! Diego will be heading back home soon and everyone here will be in his heart.
Wrestlers from the current D GENERATIONS era of DDT were also part of the show to show how DDT continues to look towards the future. The semi-main event was a 6-Man Tag pitting DNA against D GENERATIONS. Kota Umeda, Ryota Nakatsu & Kouki Iwasaki had all wrestled on the first DNA show and were a united trio against Keigo Nakamura, To-y & Yuya Koroku. The match paired off Nakatsu against To-y, Iwasaki against Koroku and came down to Umeda pinning Nakamura with a Right High Kick. Both teams showed interest in having more matches against each other. The younger fighters want to surpass their seniors while Umeda in particular still wants to prove his vision of DNA was always the right one.
One of the regular tag teams put together in DNA was Gran MilliMeters so it was an emotional reunion for Daiki Shimomura & Check Shimatani. They lost to Speed Of Sounds in a competitive match but they didn’t let that result ruin their night. Shimatani is currently busy wrestling in Mexico these days but he did not want to miss this anniversary and felt many emotions when he got the invitation to take part. SOS felt like they deserved some attention too because this year is their 20th Anniversary in wrestling.
Yuni from DDT and Munetatsu Nakamura from Ganbare☆Pro battled each other in another segment of the show dedicated to the new generation, the DDTeeeen!! project in particular. Nakamura got the upper hand by doing the Michinoku Driver II and won when he pinned Yuni with a German Suplex. Nakamura is happy to win but said he has never fought the coach who taught them. He wants to meet and beat that guy to finally get closure from DDTeeeen!! Yuni thought there was no way he could lose to Nakamura but was proven wrong. He wants to wrestle him again as well as Ilusion.
DNA was only around for a few years but it was long enough for a heel unit to pop up and cause trouble. The Naomi Kingdom was led by Naomi Yoshimura back when he was a young punk with a chip on his shoulder. He couldn’t wrestle today because he is still rehabilitating from his neck injury but he still came here to watch one of his stablemates Akira Jo wrestle. Jo’s tag partner Yuki Ishida is connected to Yoshimura through Harimao. Ishida believes if he was around for DNA he would have been a Naomi Kingdom member too. The opposing team were frustrated after losing the match. Rekka wants to fight Yoshimura anytime he is able to wrestle again. The veteran Choun-Shiryu didn’t like how he was treated because of his age and promised to fight again at the 15th Anniversary when he will be 51 years old.
A time limit draw was the result of the opening tag match featuring four of the most established wrestlers from DNA who are currently still active. MAO & Mizuki Watase were the tenacious pairing while Yuki Iino & Masato Kamino fought them as the team of muscleheads. When time was running out the wrestlers yelled that they weren’t going to lose to each other. Both teams were reaching their limit when the 15 minute time limit ran out and the match was ruled a draw. Watase said they can have a rematch anywhere if the others want to.
There was an entrance ceremony before the first match for all of the wrestlers taking part. Also Katsumata was joined by Kazusada Higuchi and Suguru Miyatake to greet the audience at the start of the show.
