5. Partner Match ~ BOYZ Vs YaroZ All-Out Battle: The result is withheld.

Oh God this show is a complete nightmare to figure out. The third edition of DDT’s No Spoilers show had a main event pitting wrestlers from BOYZ taking on wrestlers from YaroZ. However DDT will not reveal what happened in the match and they made every attendee promise not to post anything about it, even though everything else was cleared once the clock reached midnight. Some of the wrestlers did pose group photos backstage and put them on social media though. The BOYZ side seems to consist of Chris Brookes, Yuki Ueno, Takeshi Masada, Akito & Soma Takao all dressed as cops. The members of the YaroZ team I could find were Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Naya, Yuki Ishida & Gota Ihashi. In the middle of it all was bikini model Tena Aoyama. Apparently the two sides were fighting over her.

The World Wide Entertainment match was a Rumble featuring familiar looking wrestlers from around the world. In order of entry we got Hanorek Hogaso (Antonio Honda as Hulk Hogan), “Mr. Perfect” Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi (Hiroshi in his USA gimmick), Nerima Sting (Daisuke Sasaki as Sting), Jibunmadashitakoto Nines (Keigo Nakamura as Seth Rollins), Manmankikind (??? as Mankind), Pakurimusou (Fuminori Abe as Hakushi), Hara Cena (HARASHIMA as John Cena), The Rockza (Keigo Nakamura as The Rock), Fukuda Hiroshides (Hiroshi as Cody Rhodes), Manman Kikeigns (??? as Roman Reigns), Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin (Honda as Stone Cold Steve Austin) and Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin Jr. (Nakamura also as Stone Cold).

To-y requested that his match against Danshoku Dieno would be a Baseball Knuckle Match. The rule is every time they played Rock Paper Scissors during the match the loser would have to remove one piece of clothing. The match would continue until one wrestler lost all of his clothes. To-y entered the match wearing several layers of clothes but Dieno was happy to strip down to his underwear right way. Dieno then went on a winning streak, forcing To-y to eventually strip down to just his own underwear. When Dieno won the final game, the referee ended the match and declared Dieno the winner to save To-y from stripping completely naked in front of everyone.

During the opening of the show Yuya Koroku and Kazuki Hirata got into a fight that made its way into the ring. HARASHIMA was in the middle of the opening speech so he stepped in and told both wrestlers to stop. They agreed and shook each other’s hands but also accidentally headbutted each other in the process. When it was time for the match to happen everyone found out the headbutt caused Koroku and Hirata to swap bodies and costumes! Koroku was now Hirata and Hirata was now Koroku. After doing each other’s spots for the entire match, Hirata (Koroku) pinned Koroku (Hirata) with the Miracle One Shot Cradle to win. They stayed in this state during intermission and it was only when the show restarted when they bumped heads again and swapped back to normal.

NωA was reunited to face the new generation that’s replacing them, NωA Jr. There was a problem because Shunma Katsumata is in both groups so had to wrestle on both teams. The other four eventually got sick of him jumping back and forth so they all fought him together and left him in a defeated mess. Both teams won but since Yuni was directly on top of Katsumata for the pin, he was declared the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Katsumata wanted to end the segment on a happy note so he convinced both idol groups to perform together. However it was suddenly interrupted when To-y approached them armed with a knife acting like a crazed stalker. Katsumata calmed the situation by talking To-y out of it and they hugged. But as they were about to leave ringside, Yuki Ueno suddenly stabbed Katsumata through his body with an umbrella and left him for dead!

At the end of the show a mystery man snuck behind To-y backstage and injected something into his neck. To-y was left in an unconscious state and hasn’t been seen since. DDT eventually had an update announcing that somebody named Dr. Ueno will be bringing Mecha To-y to DDT on 3rd April!

YAROZ “YAROZ PART 9 ~THE SAME DAY AND SAME VENUE DECISIVE BATTLE WITH THE FATEFUL BOYZ!~” Results

April 4, 2021

YAROZ “YAROZ PART 9 ~THE SAME DAY AND SAME VENUE DECISIVE BATTLE WITH THE FATEFUL BOYZ! NEVER LOSE TO THOSE WHO ARE POPULAR! RAISE UP THE YAROS! SHOW OFF A MAN’S STORY OF BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS!~”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 1st Floor
100 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yusuke Okada “YaroZ” Welcome Match: Antonio Honda & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Iino & Keigo Nakamura when Honda pinned Nakamura with a Sunset Flip (8:11).
2. Yukio Naya “YaroZ Tradition” Trial 5th Match Round 1: Danshoku Dieno Vs Yukio Naya ended in a Double Countout (10:37).
3. Round System Mixed Martial Arts Rules: Shinya Aoki (2) defeated Gota Ihashi (0).
3a. Shinya Aoki defeated Gota Ihashi with a Choke Sleeper (R1 0:08).
3b. Shinya Aoki defeated Gota Ihashi with a School Boy (R4 0:40).
4. FFF (Fundoshi For Future) Match: Yukio Sakaguchi and Hoshitango defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani after the Birthday Double Press (4:27).
5. YaroZ-gun Vs BOYZ-gun Full Scale Battle!: Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & Ken Ohka defeated Makoto Oishi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ueno when Ohka pinned Hirata with the Flame Spear (11:26).

Today in Itabashi Green Hall there were two competing shows taking place at the same time. The 1st Floor was the location of the YaroZ show for men. In the regular room on the 2nd Floor where the pro wrestling shows are held was the BOYZ show for women. There would be invasions from both sides on both shows taking place throughout the day.

Midway through the show the special guest Tsukasa Wachi was kidnapped by a squad of BOYZ wearing bath towels led by Makoto Oishi. It was up to Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & Ken Ohka to rescue her in the main event. Oishi tried to lure Higuchi and Owashi over to the BOYZ side with the promise of Higuchi looking cool in front of Wachi and Higuchi getting booked in the BOYZ main event. When Owashi realized he was getting tricked, he lost his temper and used lucha to get rid of Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ueno. All of the BOYZ ganged up on Ohka but an opportunity opened up for the YaroZ to do a train attack. Hirata was singled out and was beaten with Ohka’s Flame Spear.

Oishi refused to let Wachi go after the match when an unlikely figure came to the rescue. Yusuke Okada attacked Oishi with a Back Elbow and freed Wachi! He learned how important the YaroZ fans are and finally accepts he is YaroZ both physically and mentally. Yukio Naya invited Wachi to come over to the post-show party at his family’s restaurant. She declined with the made up excuse that she has a photoshoot to attend at 4am. Tetsuya Endo then walked by ready to leave the venue and Wachi ran over to join him. She told him it’s time to go and they made their exit. Ohka had to remind everyone they are not doing pro wrestling to be popular but because they are YaroZ!

The 3 Way match involved Yukio Sakaguchi, Hoshitango and Nobuhiro Shimatani all wrestling in fundoshi. Shimatani had his fundoshi pulled off so he was left defenceless in order to hide his shame. Sakaguchi and Hoshitango ganged up on him until they got the double pin to both be declared the winners. Shimatani complained that he might get fired because of this so Sakaguchi and Hoshitango both agreed to take off their fundoshi as a show of solidarity. The three of them had to be forcibly removed from ringside.

Wachi’s original role on the show was to be the ring girl for the MMA match. She wanted to take off a piece of clothing after every round so everyone wanted the match to take as long as possible. However Brother Mon was told by CyberAgent’s compliance officer before the show warning him he’ll be fired if things get out of control. So Mon told Yukinori Matsui to do a proper officiating job. Instead Matsui complained when Shinya Aoki immediately tapped out Gota Ihashi and forced the match to restart. Matsui allowed Aoki to beat up Ihashi for four rounds so Wachi could take off more clothes but that ended when Brother Mon counted Aoki pinning Ihashi to end the match. Matsui attacked Mon and chaos was about to break out when Wachi stripped down to her swimsuit to stop everyone from fighting. The BOYZ then broke into the show to kidnap her and set up the main event.

Yukio Naya was introduced as Reiwa YaroZ because his father is Heisei Yaroz and his grandfather was Showa YaroZ. Danshoku Dieno saw this as strong preparation for his upcoming match with Jun Akiyama. Their match was interrupted by the Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO match from BOYZ that somehow made its way downstairs. Dieno and Naya then brawled there way upstairs to BOYZ show. While they were gone the ring announcer tried to keep everyone occupied by guessing who X was going to be at today’s New Japan show. Dieno and Naya reappeared with Yuki Iino behind them wearing Dieno’s wrestling gear. Dieno and Iino kept giving each other Lip Locks and everyone was counted out before Naya could make it back to the ring. The hosts Brother Mon and Brother Tommy at least thought it was revolutionary to have two wrestling matches interact with each other at the same time.

The beginning of the show was delayed for three minutes because Yusuke Okada and Toru Owashi both snuck off to try and join the BOYZ show. They were dragged back and Okada had to wrestle his opening match with Antonio Honda, Yuki Iino and Keigo Nakamura. He stormed off afterwards but saw the light later in the show. Meanwhile Honda, Iino & Nakamura had to prepare for wrestling in the BOYZ main event.

BOYZ “BOYZ BE AMBITIOUS! 2021” Results

April 4, 2021

BOYZ “BOYZ BE AMBITIOUS! 2021”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2nd Floor
100 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Oishi & Okatani Produce Match “Okaya. Produce.”: Yuki Ueno & Kazuki Hirata defeated Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani when Hirata pinned Okatani with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (9:35).
2. Unprecedented Confrontation: Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO ended in a Double Countout (12:24).
3. Jun Masaoka Appeal For Entering Damne!? Assessment Match: Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao defeated Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka when Endo pinned Masaoka with the Shooting Star Press (16:53).
4. BOYZ Annual DDT x Ganpro Exchange Match: Akito defeated Shota with a Gannosuke Clutch Cutback (15:38).
5. BOYZ Army Vs YaroZ Army Full Scale Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima defeated Antonio Honda, Yuki Iino & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (16:29).

Today in Itabashi Green Hall there were two competing shows taking place at the same time. In the regular room on the 2nd Floor where the pro wrestling shows are held was the BOYZ show for women. The 1st Floor was the location of the YaroZ show for men. There would be invasions from both sides on both shows taking place throughout the day.

The main event of the BOYZ show was a 6-Man Tag between the two brands. The YaroZ team were confused from seeing only women in the audience when they entered the room. Yuki Iino tried to impress the audience with the Haka but got no response. Keigo Nakamura wrestled in a blonde wig that fell off when he did a Moonsault. Antonio Honda summoned his team to form a centaur but the attack fell apart when they crashed into the corner. Shunma Katsumata wiped out Honda & Iino with a dive to the outside, Toui Kojima planted Nakamura with the Full Nelson Buster and HARASHIMA hit the Somato to give the home team the victory.

The match between Akito and Shota was a clean and even wrestling match most of the way. They got tangled up in a Figure 4 Leg Lock that rolled its way out of the ring. Neither man wanted to break the hold but did so before they could get counted out. Shota sneakily grabbed a metal fitting from under the ring and hid it in Akito’s boot during a submission attempt. Daisuke Kiso later found the fitting in Akito’s boot and the distraction allowed Shota to take over with a Cradle nearfall. Shota then faked a leg injury to put Akito in position for the Gannosuke Clutch. Akito still countered the move into his own cradle to get the three count. The two shook hands after the match to show there were no hard feelings over what happened.

If Jun Masaoka genuinely wanted to join DAMNATION then he apparently failed the audition. Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao wouldn’t shake his hand before the match. Masaoka seems to make a good team with Chris Brookes anyway so maybe it’s not all that bad.

The BOYZ show crossed over into the YaroZ show during the Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO match. While they were fighting back and forth, the action took them up to the entrance and to the backstage area. Suddenly the Danshoku Dieno Vs Yukio Naya match from the YaroZ show made its way into the BOYZ show and those two fought their way into the ring. Ishii and MAO returned and the two matches got mixed up with each other until they both broke off out of the ring again. The end result was both matches ending in a double countout.

Kazuki Hirata wanted to give everyone a flashy start to the show and complained about Hideki Okatani being too plain. Makoto Oishi agreed and encouraged Okatani to do cooler moves before he would allow him to tag out. Okatani tried to do a Tornado DDT with a lot of appealing to the fans but Yuki Ueno threw him off easily. He then tried to do the High Fly Flow to Hirata but missed. Hirata easily pinned him afterwards.

Yusuke Okada was caught trying to sneak into the show during the opening introductions. He was dragged over to the YaroZ show. Toru Owashi was also there holding the KING OF BOYZ WRESTLING trophy he won at the last show. He was chased off by Yukio Sakaguchi and other YaroZ all wearing fundoshi.

Akito apologised to the audience after the show for the constant interruptions. He thinks sometimes it is okay for BOYZ and YaroZ to work together and he hopes the two sides can get along to do a single show together someday. It probably won’t be the next show though.

Konosuke Takeshita made a request to take April off from DDT. He isn’t sick or injured. Instead he wants to take a chance to evolve into something stronger and needs to be away for a month to do it. Sounds kind of familiar, doesn’t it? If it means what I think it means then I couldn’t be happier for the guy. Anyway he returns to DDT on 4th May.

The mystery person asked for Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao Vs Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka to take place on the BOYZ show. Oh, and the email is signed under Jun Masaoka’s name. The email was forwarded to BOYZ producer Akito and after some consideration he agreed to put the match together.

YAROZ “YAROZ PART 9 ~THE SAME DAY AND SAME VENUE DECISIVE BATTLE WITH THE FATEFUL BOYZ! NEVER LOSE TO THOSE WHO ARE POPULAR! RAISE UP THE YAROS! SHOW OFF A MAN’S STORY OF BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS!~”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 1st Floor

DDT’s newest signing Yusuke Okada really wants to be part of the BOYZ brand. Unfortunately everyone else thinks he is more suited to YaroZ whether he likes it or not. So for the BOYZ Vs YaroZ double booking, Okada will be wrestling on the YaroZ show.

DDT “APRIL FOOL 2021”, 11/04/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno

There have been two wrestlers who have either stood up to Jun Akiyama or criticized his role in DDT. Akiyama just dispatched of Kazusada Higuchi so he now has to take care of Danshoku Dieno. Dieno accepted that Akiyama became part of DDT’s history when he signed a contract but the temptation of becoming KO-D Openweight Champion one more time means he cannot stay quiet anymore! If Akiyama hasn’t experienced full blown DDT before, he will now.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THAT’S J-PW”, 12/04/2021
WRESTLE UNIVERSE

Tokyo Joshi Pro is launching a new series of English shows for WRESTLE UNIVERSE. Every week on Monday and Thursday mornings in Japan “THAT’S J-PW” will host an exclusive TJPW match filmed without an audience and a Q&A session, all presented in English. Chris Brookes & Baliyan Akki will provide commentary and the episodes will last around 15 minutes each. Tetsuya Koda explained the name has a double meaning. The J in “THAT’S J-PW” stands for both Japan and Joshi.

DDT “MAX BUMP 2021 TOUR IN ASAKUSA”, 15/04/2021
Tokyo Hanayashiki Asakusa Flower Theater

While Takeshita is away, the rest of The 37KAMIINA will keep the waters warm without him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STILL INCOMPLETE”, 17/04/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Nao Kakuta
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Maki Itoh

A criticism that has been aimed towards Nao Kakuta since she started wrestling for TJPW is that she is too normal to stand out. Even her challenge to Yuki Kamifuku for the International Princess Title was considered plain or even a bit boring according to the champion. Kakuta thinks it is fine to be normal. She can be called the Normal Of Normal Princess as far as she is concerned. Her other nickname is “Rat Chaser” (she used to have a catgirl gimmick) and she found her rat in the form of Kamifuku. All she has to do now is catch her! Kakuta also said that she has no senpai or kohai figures in TJPW because she came from somewhere else so she feels comfortable enough to stretch out and use her own fighting styles that she likes.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2021 ~DDT 24TH ANNIVERSARY~” Results

March 28, 2021

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2021 ~DDT 24TH ANNIVERSARY~”, 28/03/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
669 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yusuke Okada & Yuki Iino defeated Chris Brookes & Toui Kojima when Okada submitted Kojima with a Crab Hold (10:51).
2. Soma Takao defeated Hideki Okatani with the Gin And Tonic (6:19).
3. Danshoku Dieno, Makoto Oishi & Saki Akai defeated Toru Owashi, Akito & Keigo Nakamura when Dieno pinned Nakamura with the Gaydo Clutch (9:16).
4. KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles: Sanshiro Takagi, Yukio Naya, Chikara & Nabe Yakan defeated Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata (c) when Naya pinned Sasadango with the Back Drop (9:48).
*Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata fails in V1. Team Thoroughbred becomes the 4th KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Champions!
5. DDT 24th Anniversary Special Single Match: HARASHIMA defeated Yukio Sakaguchi with the Somao (6:03).
6. DAMNATION Vs The 37KAMIINA: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & MAO defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie when Takeshita pinned Paulie with the German Suplex (16:08).
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) defeated Kazusada Higuchi with a Running Knee Butt (21:10).
*V1 for Jun Akiyama.

The title reign can now get going for Jun Akiyama. He’s been on the losing end of a few tag matches after becoming champion but when it’s time to defend the KO-D Openweight Title, Akiyama showed you can ultimately count on him. Kazusada Higuchi kept to wrestling barefoot and using his sumo skills. Akiyama learned not to target Higuchi’s hard head so he instead went after his arm, hitting it off of the ring post while they fought outside the ring. Higuchi was still able to apply the Brain Claw but Akiyama used Knee Strikes to avoid getting slammed from the move. The Knee Strikes weakened Higuchi enough for the Wrist Clutch Exploder Suplex to be used. Higuchi kicked out at two so Akiyama pulled down his kneepad and hit another Running Knee Butt, this time to the back of Higuchi’s head. That pretty much knocked Higuchi out and he was pinned for the three count.

The deal made in the build up to the match was if Higuchi lost, he would finally start listening to Coach Akiyama’s orders. Akiyama ordered him to wrap the KO-D Title around his waist. Higuchi agreed, simply answering with “Hai!” He left the ring with Eruption’s help afterwards. With him dealt with, Akiyama can now move on from all of his defeats from the D-Ou Grand Prix. He then wondered if Danshoku Dieno, the other DDT wrestler who has been critical of Akiyama’s new role, would come and face him.

Dieno did so and wouldn’t stop staring at Akiyama’s waist. Akiyama asked what was Dieno looking at, the belt or his body? Dieno said both. DDT has now been around for 24 years and Dieno has been with them for less than 20. He doesn’t know everything about DDT but he is attached to the KO-D Title. He named many of the wrestlers who are former KO-D Champions throughout the years: Poison Sawada JULIE, Sanshiro Takagi, Takashi Sasaki, MIKAMI, Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega, Shigehiro Irie, Hikaru Sato, Masahiro Takanashi, Ken Ohka, HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi, KUDO, Konosuke Takeshita and Tetsuya Endo. They all fought for DDT and bring it to where it is today. Dieno has kept his feelings to himself for so long. Now is the time for him to let them out and take back the KO-D Title he loves so much! Hisaya Imabayashi accepted Dieno’s request and he will get a title shot on 11th April. Dieno was a little annoyed that the match isn’t booked for the next supercard but he gets it. DDT doesn’t expect him to win. He tapped the title belt around Akiyama’s waist and then tapped him in the crotch for good measure before leaving with his middle fingers sticking out. What’s more is now Makoto Oishi is in a conflicting position. Does he side with Akiyama or Dieno?

The supercard mentioned above is “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2021” which is confirmed to be taking place this summer. It will be held at Fujitsu Stadium Kawasaki on 21st August, marking the first time a “WRESTLE PETER PAN” show is taking place outdoors. And yes, this is the same location where FMW ran their famous anniversary shows during the nineties. Technically not the same venue because it’s been redeveloped a lot since then though.

The announcement got The 37KAMIINA excited and motivated enough to win their first match as a complete group. Takeshita dumped Mad Paulie with the Last Ride. Yuki Ueno & MAO then launched Shunma Katsumata into the air for him to land a Splash on Paulie for a two count. Paulie fought back until Takeshita put him away with the German Suplex.

HARASHIMA and Sakaguchi faced off in a preview of their KO-D Tag Team Titles match on 11th April. They went hard at each other with Middle Kicks and High Kicks. Sakaguchi hit the God’s Right Knee but HARASHIMA staggered him back with a Jumping High Kick. That gave him the space to hit the Somato and win. HARASHIMA said he was happy to have a singles match like this on DDT’s 24th anniversary. He considers Sakaguchi to be from the same generation as him so working together today gave him more encouragement. That thought stuck with him more than the tag title match preview.

Takagi lived up to his promise to make Team Thoroughbred the new KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Champions. The defending champions Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata all tried doing the Bionic Elbow at the same time but it failed. Team Thoroughbred then all tried doing Saber Chops to Sasadango and it succeeded, with Nabe Yakan doing a jumping version. Yukio Naya then pinned Sasadango with the Back Drop to win the titles. Chikara dedicated the win to his father Mitsuo Momota. He is currently hospitalized with an illness. Chikara knows his title win today will cheer up his father and be a driving force for his recovery. Backstage Takagi said Team Thoroughbred will ultimately have seven members and he hopes to create a 14-Man Tag Team Championship for them to win.

Oishi’s conflict over choosing between Akiyama and Dieno is because he wants to fight for what’s right to him. That means not doing any of Dieno’s usual strategies when they teamed up. Oishi kept taking their trios match seriously, calling on the ref to stop Dieno from grabbing crotches and preventing Toru Owashi from entering the ring because they were not using lucha tag rules. Dieno tried teaming with Saki Akai instead but it just wasn’t the same. Oishi finally gave in and Dieno went into the Hell Gate position. Oishi tried to throw his opponents into Dieno but he was easily overpowered and his face was pushed into Dieno’s backside. The lights flashed to show that Oishi was now in a zombie state! Akai got rid of Owashi & Akito while Dieno pinned Keigo Nakamura with the Gaydo Clutch. The lights flickered again and Oishi came back to his senses.

Soma Takao put Hideki Okatani through the ringer. He provoked him by showing off his KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title belt. He threw him into the security barrier a lot and Body Slammed him onto the floor. Okatani didn’t get counted out and fought back, hitting the Northern Lights Suplex for a two count. Takao hit a counter Elbow Strike and won with the Gin And Tonic.

Now that he is full time with DDT, Yusuke Okada is quickly making new contacts. His first time team up with Yuki Iino went well. Iino eliminated Chris Brookes with a Spear. That gave Okada all the space he needed to submit Toui Kojima with a Crab Hold. Okada wants the DDT fans to keep their eyes on him.

A mysterious email was sent to the DDT office regarding the BOYZ show on 4th April. The email claims to be sent from Jun Masaoka and is demanding a tag match between him & Brookes against Tetsuya Endo & Takao at the BOYZ show. However the email address matches that used by DAMNATION whenever they send threatening messages to match makers. Okada asked if he could also be on the BOYZ show but Imabayashi told him he is already booked for YaroZ that same day.

The five teams entering Ultimate Tag League 2021 are Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi (representing Eruption), Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi (representing Junretsu), Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata (representing The 37KAMIINA), Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda (representing Europe) and Daisuke Sasaki & Yuji Hino (representing DAMNATION).

The theme of today’s BOYZ show was the New BOYZ Army Vs Old BOYZ Army in a battle to determine which generation are the best BOYZ. The Old BOYZ Army didn’t like their team name and thought the BOYZ Older Brothers Army would have been more flattering.

The scheduled main event was a 5 Vs 5 Gauntlet match. Yuki Ueno didn’t think Toru Owashi belonged in BOYZ. Owashi pulled out a marker and tried to draw on Ueno’s face in response to that opinion. Ueno got the marker instead and scribbled on Owashi’s face while he was hanging over the ropes before kicking him out of the ring for the elimination. Owashi got some revenge by helping HARASHIMA eliminated Ueno by pulling him over the ropes and to the floor. Ueno distracted the referee so Toui Kojima could attack HARASHIMA but his chops didn’t do any damage. HARASHIMA got rid of Kojima but that left him open for Chris Brookes to throw him out of the ring. Kojima continued to play a role in the match by catching Brookes to avoid him getting eliminated. That plan failed when Keisuke Ishii went under the ropes and knocked them down so Brookes would touch the floor. Ishii built some momentum by pinning MAO until he was beaten by Konosuke Takeshita. At this point interference was happening from both teams wherever you looked. They all cancelled each other out but the end result to Takeshita and Kazuki Hirata was still a double elimination when Hirata sacrificed himself to eliminate his opponent too. That left Makoto Oishi for the Old BOYZ against Jun Masaoka for the New BOYZ. Masaoka kicked out of the Miracle Ecstasy and hit Oishi below the belt when the referee wasn’t watching. He then got the three count with the Ambitions cradle to win the match for the New BOYZ!

Oishi complained about the Low Blow Masaoka gave him and asked if he learned it from watching a KAIENTAI show? Masaoka said he saw one of their shows around 16 years ago. He also said Oishi was kicking his opponents below the belt 10 years ago so he has nothing to complain about!

There was a bonus main event put together by Akito. He wants BOYZ to have a championship but he doesn’t want it to be another belt. Instead he has a trophy called the KING OF BOYZ WRESTLING and the first champion will be the winner of a Battle Royal starting right now! Everyone who wrestled on the show took part and in the end, Toru Owashi was the winner. He decided to take part at the next BOYZ show on 4th April instead of the YaroZ show taking place in the same venue. Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Iino came out to complain about his decision but Owashi yelled at them to go home. This scenario left Akito worried that the BOYZ and YaroZ are going to fight over Owashi on 4th April.

6. DDT Extreme Title – Kids Room Death Match 37 (Sauna) Count Edition: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs MAO

The DDT Extreme Title will be defended in a Kids Room Death Match. Fitting given how much Shunma Katsumata and MAO act like kids whenever they fight each other. You can win with a normal 3 count but you can also win when all of your 1 and 2 counts add up to a total score of 37 (which in Japanese kind of sounds like Sauna). No rope breaks are allowed and weapons are permitted except those considered by the referee to be particularly dangerous.

Yuki Ueno and Yusuke Okada have to be split apart and put on opposite teams again.

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ α -HINAMATSURI EDITION-”, 03/03/2021
Kitazawa Town Hall

1. Doki! A Tag Team Match Full Of People Careers Of 2 Years Or Less: Keigo Nakamura & Toui Kojima Vs Issei Onizuka & Hideki Okatani

The main event is a Gauntlet match between the new and old faces of BOYZ. Eliminations occur under normal rules as well as being thrown over the top rope and out of the ring. Any kind of draw will eliminate both wrestlers and there is a 10 minute time limit for each match. The team order will be submitted at the start of the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “CHANGE THE WIND DIRECTION”, 06/03/2021
Tokyo Nerima coconeri Hall

1. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori
2. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi Final: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: X & X Vs X & X

We’re down to four teams: NEO Biishiki-gun, HikaShio, 121000000 and Kyoraku Kyomei. Ever since Sakisama returned to Tokyo Joshi Pro for her latest campaign, Sena Shiori has been a regular opponent for her in what has been a one sided feud so far. The other side of the bracket involves two teams both with massive momentum behind them.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GENGHIS KHAN KIRISHIMA PRESENTS TJPW PPV SHOW 3 ~11 VS 11 KOUHAKU TAIKO THE☆BATTLE 2021~”, 07/03/2021
OPENREC.tv

1. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
2. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
3. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
4. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
5. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
6. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
7. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
8. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
9. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
10. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X
11. Team Red Vs Team White: X Vs X

The teams will now consist of 11 participants instead of 12 because Maki Itoh has a scheduling conflict and cannot be on the show. I have no inkling of what the schedule clash is so you’re not getting any speculation here. Team White is captained by Rika Tatsumi and Team Red has Shoko Nakajima as their captain. A lottery will determine who from the roster will be on which team. Each match has a 5 minute time limit and 2 Count pins. If the time expires then 1 Count sudden death overtime begins to determine the winner. The team with the most wins at the end gets the Genghis Khan Kirishima prize voucher.

DDT “DAY DREAM BELIEVER 2021”, 14/03/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Junretsu Vs Eruption!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi
2. DDT UNIVERSAL TITLE: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Yusuke Okada

Okada has stepped up to Ueno, jealous of the DDT UNIVERSAL Champion for being more successful and better looking than him. There’s still a sense of friendly competition going on between them but that could get thrown out the window if the match gets heated.

GANBARE☆PRO “RUMBLEFISH 2021”, 21/03/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. THE HALFEE Vs Team MAKAI: Shuichiro Katsumura & Shu Sakurai Vs Asuka & Hagane Shinno
