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”, 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.

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.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. SIX: THE ART OF SELF DESTRUCTION”, 04/07/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans
1. Special Tag Team Match: MAO & Chie Koishikawa defeated Takayuki Ueki & Mecha Mummy when MAO pinned Mummy with a Swanton Bomb (11:24).
2. Special Single Match: Minoru Fujita Vs Rina Yamashita ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
3. Shota defeated Antonio Honda with a Cradle (6:11).
4. Special Single Match: Asuka defeated Masahiro Takanashi with a Michinoku Driver II (13:08).
No injury was going to keep Chris Brookes away from his own show! The latest adventures of Baka Gaijin + Friends placed Brookes in the ring announcer role, introducing all of the wrestlers and playing host to the crowd. He was also in good enough shape to get involved in the main event, interfering after a ref bump to help Masahiro Takanashi get the advantage on Asuka. The two on one attack by CDK caused MAO (in Drew Parker cosplay, more on that later) to run in and help Asuka even the odds. MAO and Brookes were soon out of the picture and the main event became a fair fight again. Asuka dropped Takanashi on the floor with a Michinoku Driver II to win the match.
A musical performance by Antonio Honda in the middle of the show was interrupted by the unexpected appearance of Shota from Ganbare☆Pro. He walked into ARENA Shimokitazawa to promote “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA II” taking place this weekend. Honda at first allowed Shota to stand next to him but it was just to hit him with his guitar! Honda then took off his clothes revealing his wrestling gear underneath and challenged Shota to a match right away. Honda grabbed the show poster and gave Shota papercuts. However he ended up hurting his knee while charging the length of the room and tripping over the mat. He turned it into a Gongitsune attack but Shota turned the move back against him and rolled him up for the three count.
Normally Minoru Fujita and Rina Yamashita would both be up for a fight that would tear any room they are in apart. But the bar their match took place in today was very small and packed with people. They fought each other anyway but did so carefully through the crowd so they could get outside and have all the space they needed for a brawl. Given this is a Baka Gaijin show that means taking the fight up to the roof and standing over the glass ceiling. Thankfully they realized how dangerous that was and decided to arm wrestle over the glass before returning indoors. The match continued and they had a little bit of space to use a chair as a weapon. But the time limit eventually expired, ending the match in a draw. The two kept slapping, pushing and rolling into each other as they left the room in a huff.
The opening match was another chance for Chie Koishikawa to dress up as Brookes and pretend to wrestle like him. Her tag partner MAO took things one step further by showing up in full Drew Parker cosplay! He even had paper cutouts of darts that ended up getting jammed up his wig for a fake blood spot. Takayuki Ueki gave him a DDT afterwards for extra damage. However Ueki being the mad scientist he is made a mistake of feeding liquid to Mecha Mummy, causing the robot to malfunction and attack everybody with its Mecha Fist. Koishikawa stopped Mummy’s rampage with a Jumping Knee and then fired the Mecha Fist back at it. MAO then hit a Parker like Swanton Bomb to get the three count. However Ueki had the last laugh by revealing he collected some of MAO’s DNA during the match and will use it to modify Mecha Mummy into being more MAO-like in the future!
The next Baka Gaijin show will take place on 22nd August.

A message was sent by Sayaka Unagi to Ganbare☆Pro today saying that Riara needs an appraisal from somebody else in order to get assessed by herself. Unagi will be sending a “minion” to face Riara in a match to see what the rookie is capable of.

Brookes is injured while Parker is taking time off to go back to the UK. Instead the regular crew are joined by Minoru Fujita and Asuka for the first time along with Rina Yamashita making her second appearance for the group.
MAO & Chie Koishikawa think their tag team is better suited for these shows than DDT. After all where else can they fight against Takayuki Ueki & Mecha Mummy together?

The return of NEO Biishiki-gun will have first time opponents Yuki Arai & Wakana Uehara waiting for them. Arai thinks Sakisama kind of looks like Saki Akai. If the two of them are at similar skill level too then Arai is more prepared for the match than she thought.
Nyla Rose will be getting a new opponent now that Yuka Sakazaki has been pulled off the show. It will be announced as soon as her new opponent is decided.
It will be almost six months since Juria Nagano’s last match by the time she comes back. A broken finger kept her away from wrestling matches all year.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. FIVE: THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL”, 23/05/2023
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans
1. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Hyper Misao with a Death Valley Driver through a Plastic Box (12:10).
2. Special Single Match: Takayuki Ueki defeated Mecha Mummy with a Falling Headbutt (4:58).
3. Special Tag Team Match: MAO & Mei Suruga defeated Chie Koishikawa & Hagane Shinno when MAO & Mei Suruga pinned Chie Koishikawa & Hagane Shinno after the Hair Of The Dog (12:13).
4. Special Single Match: Drew Parker defeated Masahiro Takanashi with a Somato (16:28).
Drew Parker and Masahiro Takanashi had their first ever singles match together to main event the latest Baka Gaijin + Friends show. Unlike previous main events from the group, this one stayed almost entirely inside the tiny little mat in the centre of the room. Other than a moment when Parker Dropkicked Takanashi into a fan it was a match of oneupmanship rather than a crazy brawl. Parker did a Swanton Bomb from a stepstool but Takanashi kicked out so he hit a Somato to get the win.
The silliness was more on show in the tag team match. MAO & Mei Suruga joined forces to fight Chie Koishikawa & Hagane Shinno, the pairing also known as Egg Tart. Both Suruga and Koishikawa were put in uncomfortable positions after getting trapped in different objects. Koishikawa got tangled up inbetween stepstool legs. Shinno then came up with an idea to put Suruga sitting through the frame of an upside down stool and then placing her on top of Koishikawa. That way MAO and Shinno could fight each other without the women getting in the way. Koishikawa remained trapped in her stepstool until MAO put her in an Ankle Lock. She slipped out of the stool and freed herself from MAO’s submission. The match then split apart into two fights in opposite sides of the room. They all met back in the middle and kept the match going until MAO & Suruga used a combined cradle combination to pin both members of Egg Tart at the same time.
Mecha Mummy made a rare appearance for its first pro wrestling match in years. It looked a little shorter than the last time we saw him but it could still frantically shake its fists at everything. Takayuki Ueki’s solution to fighting Mummy and its rocket fist was to pull out his gun and pull the trigger. However the bullet ricocheted off of Mummy’s chest plate and hit Daisuke Kiso instead! Mummy readied its fist and was about to deliver a finishing blow to Ueki when suddenly Hyper Misao ran out to rescue him! Misao shot Mummy with an electrified bow and arrow, causing Mummy to short circuit. Ueki Heabutted it to the ground, then placed the Rocket Fist over his head to drop another Falling Headbutt. A wounded Kiso slowly counted the pin to give Ueki the victory. Mummy’s system rebooted and it took out an antidote to heal Kiso’s bullet wound. Kiso lost briefly lost consciousness but jumped back to his feet to give this story a happy ending.
Misao’s match with Chris Brookes unexpectedly opened the show and the two of them almost tore the place apart with their fighting. Misao stapled advertising posters of her self-produced show “HYPE!” on Brookes’ arm and chest. Brookes got his own back by stapling a poster onto Misao’s head. He then took out some plastic boxes and tried to Suplex Misao onto them from the bar counter. But Misao backed him off and hit a Diving Cross Body, making Brookes land onto the boxes. Misao then brought out chairs and placed them out sideways. He sprayed Misao in the face and then Body Slammed him onto the chairs! Getting desperate, Misao took out a plastic toy mallet with firecrackers attached to it. She put a flame to the firecrackers and set them off but Brookes dodged her attack and smashed a plastic box over her head. He then got Kiso to put the firecrackers onto another box and set them alight while he put Misao through it with a Death Valley Driver for the three count.
Antonio Honda sung a few songs for the fans before the main event. He had musicians playing a guitar and a saxophone accompanying him.
