DDT played host to a celebration of Yuji Hino’s 20th anniversary of his debut match. Hino’s first pro match didn’t take place until November 2023 but according to Hino that just means there is time to do a 2nd, 3rd and even 4th show to continue the commemoration across the rest of the year. It’s not like ONLY WE will be doing anything else by themselves. He is already thinking about holding part two in Kumamoto. Hino convinced Jun Akiyama & Yukio Sakaguchi to team up with him for a big trios match against Tetsuya Endo, HARASHIMA & Yuji Okabayashi. His big day was capped off with him pinning HARASHIMA with the Fuckin’ BOMB.
The dream run for Shinya Aoki, Yuki Ueno & Super Sasadango Machine has come to an end. They have lost the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles to Harimao. It was Yuki Ishida who stepped up to the plate for the challengers to cause the title change. Sasadango gave Ishida the Lehmann Shock twice but the first pin was broken up and the second was kicked out at two. Ishida avoided the dreaded finisher a third time and opened the gap for Kazusada Higuchi to hit Sasadango with a Lariat. Ishida then hit the Flame Palm and scrambled on top to get the three count. Higuchi is now calling Harimao the best unit in DDT because they have the 6-Man Tag Titles. Ryota Nakatsu also gave a shoutout to Naomi Yoshimura.
Chris Brookes cut off Hiroshi Yamato’s singing entrance because he thought it was too noisy. However he & Takeshi Masada had a change of heart after they won their match and asked Yamato to sing it again for everyone.
A contract signing between Shunma Katsumata and Hideki Okatani before the show began revealed the stipulation of their DDT Extreme Title match. It will be a Piercing Death Match! It is a No DQ match where you can either win through normal means or by piercing your opponent’s ears three times. Many of the weapons that will be laid around the ring for the match will be of the sharp variety for this reason. Katsumata tried to attack Okatani’s ear with a piercing staple in a twisted demonstration but Okatani fought him off, grabbed the staple and pierced Katsumata’s ear instead!
It was announced at the start of the show that Nick Wayne’s delayed visit to Japan has been successfully rescheduled and he will now be coming in for a tour of DDT shows this summer. His tour begins at Korakuen Hall on 25th June and will last until 7th July.
