9. Double Main Event I – Shosho Kogyo Presents Special Tag Match ~ Infinite Stimulation Anniversary: Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes defeated HARASHIMA & Shinya Aoki when Brookes pinned HARASHIMA with a Modified Samson Clutch (16:44).
10. Double Main Event II – Special Tag Match ~ A Ruthless Giant That Blocks The World Guide Us To Our Dreams Blooming Flower: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Yuki Ueno defeated Jun Akiyama & Shuji Ishikawa when Takeshita pinned Ishikawa with the Raging Fire (22:29).

For the second year in a row, Yukinori Matsui’s annual Osaka show was headlined by Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno teaming up together. This time around they took on a more honorable set of opponents, Jun Akiyama & Shuji Ishikawa. Although as soon as Takeshita and Ishikawa face off to start the match, Ishikawa quickly knocked down his opponent with a big Elbow Strike. He also gave Ueno a Giant Swing outside the ring throwing his into the front row of abandoned chairs. Akiyama also wrestled more aggressively but Takeshita launched a comeback that included giving Ishikawa a Superplex. He combined the Jumping Knee with Ueno’s Dropkick to knock over Ishikawa and then Ueno did a Moonsault onto Akiyama outside the ring. Ishikawa was able to kick out of the Wagamama but Takeshita lifted him up for the Raging Fire and dropped him back down to get the win. Both Takeshita & Ueno showed their gratitude to Matsui after the match.

The other big match for the show involved Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes teaming up again as SchadenTekkers (with matching purple gear between them) to take on HARASHIMA & Shinya Aoki. It would be the first time Sabre and Aoki got to wrestle each other. That confrontation was not enough to determine who was beter. Instead Brookes got the result by pinning HARASHIMA with a Samson Clutch. Aoki wished he could have gotten to fight Sabre for a little longer. Sabre suggested they have a singles match together the next time they meet. He also called Aoki one of the best submission wrestlers he has ever fought.

A ringside chairshot from Dick Togo stunned Shunma Katsumata and left him vulnerable to Hideki Okatani to finish him off.

KANON was made into the target of everyone’s comedy in Match #6. That meant he was the one tricked to hop in the air while nobody else joined him. MAO and KIMIHIRO then got into dueling Figure 4 Leg Locks with Kuishinbo Kamen & Kikutaro, leaving KANON out in the cold. When the four of them all got caught in the holds, KANON simply rolled them all over so he could put both Kamen & Kikutaro in a Camel Clutch. He got both of them to then give up. He doesn’t understand why he had to go through that in Osaka today but he admitted it was fun.

Kyoto indie wrestler Hiroaki Taniguchi came in as a substitute for the injured Masami Inahata in Match #5.

The mixed rules fight between Bushimasa and Tyson Maeguchi was a two round contest. The first round was MMA rules that lasted for three minutes. Then the second round was Tyre Boxing Rules where a tyre was placed in the middle of the ring and they had to fight while keeping one foot each inside the tyre hole. Maeguchi punched Bushimasa out of the tyre three times to earn a TKO style victory.

Ilusion had something of a trial by fire in his match. He often got himself isolated away from Magnitude Kishiwada & MJ Paul then had to find ways to get to safety. However he successfully Low Blowed both CIMA & Akito while Kishiwada took care of Yasu Urano. Ilusion then got the last laugh by getting the pin with the Swanton Bomb.

The 4 Vs 1 Handicap match had to be restarted because Hisaya Imabayashi wasn’t happy to see Yuto Kikuchi win it so easily. Kikuchi ended up giving him a Low Blow late in the rematch before winning again the second time.

It was a packed house for the show but that caused a little bit of a problem. While Sanshiro Takagi was giving the show opening speech, Keiko Takeshita (Konosuke’s mom) was seen walking around the venue looking for her seat. Takagi and Imabayashi invited her into the ring to say hello to the fans but she ended up attacking them with chops to the chest instead. Matsui tried to stop her because she was ruining the start of his show again just like last year. She gave him the Rainmaker and finished off the opening call by herself.

DDT “KING OF DDT 2026 FINAL!!”, 31/05/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. King Of DDT – Semi Final: Minoru Suzuki Vs Shinya Aoki
2. King Of DDT – Semi Final: MAO Vs Danshoku Dieno
3. King Of DDT – Final: X Vs X

With four wrestlers left in the King Of DDT, only one of them is a previous winner. That’s MAO and his next opponent Danshoku Dieno last made it to the final in 2012, losing to Kenny Omega. The semi final stage is now the furthest that Shinya Aoki has ever progressed to. Minoru Suzuki is one step away from equaling the likes of T-Hawk and Yuji Hino as outsiders who reached the final in their first tournament entry.

DDT “OWARI WARS 2026”, 21/06/2026
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference

1. DDT Extreme Title: Hideki Okatani (c) Vs Junta Miyawaki
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA (c) Vs Yuki Ueno & To-y

The alleged future “Prince Of Nagoya” To-y wants to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles and got the shot when he promised Yuki Ueno would be his tag partner. Chris Brookes is pretty confident that To-y won’t be able to beat him or HARASHIMA for the belts.

As part of Junta Miyawaki’s journey through DDT he wants to try and win the championship that bests represents DDT as a one of a kind company. That means he is going after the DDT Extreme Title. He also now has to prove to Hideki Okatani that he wants to be here and he wasn’t kicked out of NOAH.

DDT “SUNDAY DDT HOUR 2026” Results

May 10, 2026

DDT “SUNDAY DDT HOUR 2026”, 10/05/2026
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Yuni & Yuki Ishida defeated Viento Maligno & Kazuki Hirata when Ishida pinned Hirata with the Leg Scoop Suplex (8:51).
2. 3 Way Match: Naomi Yoshimura defeated Danshoku Dieno and Kazuki Hirata when Yoshimura pinned Hirata with a Lariat (10:25).
3. Akito, Junta Miyawaki & Yuya Koroku defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion when Miyawaki pinned Okatani with the Sunshine School Boy (13:33).
4. paleyouth Vs STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION!: MAO & KANON defeated Takeshi Masada & Daichi Sato when MAO pinned Sato with a Running Palm Strike (13:13).
5. Kazuma Sumi & Yukio Naya defeated Jun Akiyama & Masami Inahata when Naya submitted Inahata with a Crab Hold (11:40).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs FANTÔMES DRAMATIC!: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when To-y pinned Honda with the Kojima Impact (19:35).

A misstep by Antonio Honda gave The 37KAMIINA the victory in the main event. Honda tried to put To-y in the Octopus Hold but To-y found a counter by lifting Honda up into the Kojima Impact to get the pinfall. To-y was feeling so good about the win that he challenged FANTÔMES DRAMATIC for the KO-D Tag Team Titles afterward! Chris Brookes refused because To-y didn’t beat him or HARASHIMA to earn a shot. However Honda felt that To-y’s recent momentum and attitude is befitting of a pro wrestler and he should come take the belts if he wants them. When To-y said Yuki Ueno is going to be his tag partner, Akito measured the response of the crowd to that idea and agreed to book the match for 21st June in Nagoya. To-y then promised he will win the titles and become the Prince Of Nagoya!

Junta Miyawaki got one over on Hideki Okatani by pinning him in a 6-Man Tag and then challenging him for the DDT Extreme Title. Miyawaki wants the title shot because he thinks the Extreme Title is a one of a kind championship that can only be found in DDT. Okatani responded by asking if Okatani got kicked out of NOAH and that’s why he came to DDT? Okatani denied it and said he came here of his own free will. Okatani was pleased to hear that and said Miyawaki should be grateful that he is getting the title match on 21st June.

DDT “KING OF DDT 2026 2ND ROUND” Results

May 9, 2026

DDT “KING OF DDT 2026 2ND ROUND”, 09/05/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Kumadori, Masami Inahata & Hinata Kasai when Sasaki submitted Kasai with the Crossface Lock (9:05).
2. Yuya Koroku, Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida defeated Kazuki Hirata, Antonio Honda & Yuni when Ishida pinned Hirata with an Iso-gatame (11:09).
3. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Kazuma Sumi, Junta Miyawaki & Rukiya and KANON, Yukio Naya & Viento Maligno when Katsumata pinned Maligno with the ¡Hasta la vista! (9:54).
4. King Of DDT – Round 2: MAO defeated Hideki Okatani with the Avalanche Michinoku Driver II (10:27).
5. King Of DDT – Round 2: Danshoku Dieno defeated Takeshi Masada with an Inside Cradle (11:42).
6. King Of DDT – Round 2: Minoru Suzuki defeated Chris Brookes with a Heel Hold (20:29).
7. King Of DDT – Round 2: Shinya Aoki defeated HARASHIMA with the European Clutch (16:16).

Today is the last time the a King Of DDT round will be held inside Shinjuku FACE before the venue closes down later this year. It was the Quarter Finals with eight wrestlers still remaining in the tournament. Shinya Aoki knocked out a former two-time winner HARASHIMA in the main event. HARASHIMA countered Aoki’s submission game by hitting the Somato twice but Aoki kicked out of the pin both times. Aoki then used the ropes to prevent HARASHIMA from using the rare Yama-ori finisher. Instead Aoki put him in position for the dreaded European Clutch, ultimately winning the struggle to pin HARASHIMA’s shoulders for the three count.

A brawl broke out between Chris Brookes and Minoru Suzuki early on in their match. Suzuki got the advantage by hurting Brookes’s left leg with a chair and then targeting it from around ringside. The plan worked out when Brookes repeatedly went for Penalty Kicks using his left leg, reducing the effectiveness of the move until Suzuki could block a kick and grab Brookes into a Heel Hold for the instant submission victory. Suzuki looked like he was going to show Brookes respect after the match by reaching out his hand but it was only so he could grab his leg one more time and slam it against the canvas.

Danshoku Dieno continues his unlikely run through the tournament by making it to the semi final! Takeshi Masada tried to weaken him by using the two finger attack that was effective against To-y but it did not work out in the end. Dieno stripped down to give Masada a more dangerous version of the Danshoku Driver but Masada defended himself from it. Dieno instead pulled the win out of nowhere when he countered Masada’s finisher into a Small Package for the pinfall. After the match, Super Sasadango Machine entered the ring to once again ask Dieno to join his team of DDT wrestlers who will fight against Toru Yano and New Japan next month. Dieno continued to turn him down in order to focus on winning King Of DDT.

A victory by any means necessary was on Hideki Okatani’s mind. He tried to get MAO counted out with an attack outside the ring but MAO narrowly got back in on time by jumping from the counter to the ring apron. Okatani then stabbed a bundle of skewers into MAO’s head but got a taste of his own medicine when MAO did the same to him! Okatani had some of MAO’s other tactics scouted but ran into a finish he could not have anticipated. When he charged towards MAO in the corner, MAO hopped up to the top turnbuckle and grabbed Okatani up with him in order to give him the Avalanche Michinoku Driver II! That was enough for MAO to advance to the final four.

The four finalists all met in the ring at the end of the show for the semi final drawing. It didn’t taking long for the pairings to be determined because Dieno and MAO immediately picked the same colour to fill out one semi final match, meaning Aoki and Suzuki will fight in the other! Those two had a deep stare down in the middle of the ring while Dieno and MAO were next to them playing with each other’s balls. Backstage Dieno admits he is the weakest of the four but is counting on MAO to become complacent and underestimate him. Having reached this far, MAO is now compelled to challenge Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title again otherwise what will become of DDT if that rematch never happens in the future? Suzuki thinks it is destiny that he is going to fight Aoki again and he is going to beat him to a pulp just like last time. Aoki didn’t have much to say backstage other that simply state he will face Suzuki in the semi final.

This weekend is Daisuke Sasaki’s last matches with DDT before he goes over to New Japan to compete in the Best Of The Super Jr. He told the fans that if he does not win the tournament, he will never come back to DDT!

DDT “KING OF DDT 2026 1ST ROUND” Results

May 4, 2026

DDT “KING OF DDT 2026 1ST ROUND”, 04/05/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

0. Dark Match: Jun Akiyama, Yuni, Yuki Ishida & Rukiya defeated Naomi Yoshimura, Viento Maligno (w/ KIMIHIRO), Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata when Rukiya pinned Maligno with the R. Fisherman Buster (6:50).
0. Dark Match ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata defeated Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul and Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai when Ueno submitted Kasai with a Crab Hold (6:03).
1. King Of DDT – Round 1: Hideki Okatani defeated Yuya Koroku with the Skewered Claymore (11:21).
2. King Of DDT – Round 1: Takeshi Masada defeated To-y with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (8:47).
3. King Of DDT – Round 1: Chris Brookes defeated Junta Miyawaki with the Praying Mantis Bomb (11:51)
4. King Of DDT – Round 1: HARASHIMA defeated Daichi Sato with the Somato (7:48).
5. King Of DDT – Round 1: Shinya Aoki defeated KANON with the European Clutch (12:31).
6. King Of DDT – Round 1: Minoru Suzuki defeated Yukio Naya with the Gotch-Style Piledriver (16:17).
7. King Of DDT – Round 1: Danshoku Dieno defeated Kazuki Hirata with the Gotch-Style Danshoku Driver (11:26).
8. King Of DDT – Round 1: MAO defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Rock Killer (21:12).

Round 1 of this year’s King Of DDT tournament is in the books, headlined with a match between two wrestlers who see each other as brothers. MAO defeated his “little brother” Kazuma Sumi but the gap between them is starting to close. MAO pulled out the rare Ultra Big Tone that Sumi almost exclusively takes in the small amount of times it’s been used. However this time Sumi landed on his feet and escaped the move unscathed. Sumi relied on the School Boy to try and win the match, using it from several different directions. MAO couldn’t be beat though and he got Sumi trapped in the Just Face Lock. When Sumi was close to fighting out of it, MAO switched it over to the Crossjacket version of the move called the Rock Killer. Sumi couldn’t escape that and had no choice but to give up. MAO told Sumi he was amazing after the match and he had a reward for him. Sumi will be going to France with MAO later this month to wrestle on a BZW Vs GCW show. Not only that but Sumi will be defending the DDT Universal Title against Gringo Loco and French wrestler Leedz Lewis in a 3 Way Match!

The disappearance of Kaisei Takechi from the tournament may end up causing a butterfly effect that ends with Danshoku Dieno finally becoming King Of DDT for the first time! Takechi couldn’t compete because he had appendicitis so Kazuki Hirata was convinced to take his place. An honest Hirata didn’t expect to beat Dieno but still fought as hard as he could by using the Hirata GO! glasses to power up and also reverse the effects of Lip Lock back onto Dieno. However the Miracle One Shot Cradle wasn’t as effective and Hirata was worn down with Brainbusters, the Danshoku Driver and also a Moonsault. As much as Hirata tried to stay in the fight, he was finally put away with the Gotch-Style Danshoku Driver. Since Dieno advanced in the tournament, he had a reason after the match to turn down Super Sasadango Machine’s request to join his team for the upcoming DDT Vs New Japan team challenge against Toru Yano. Dieno is now carrying the dreams of both Takechi and Hirata on his back so he cannot afford to be distracted from the tournament right now.

That was the second match in a row to end with a Gotch-Style Piledriver. Match #6 saw Minoru Suzuki use his version of the move to defeat Yukio Naya. He countered Naya’s size by attacking him with chairs outside the ring. Naya fought back by using The World’s Best Back Drop, Knee Lifts and the Choke Slam. Suzuki withstood those attacks to choke out Naya with a Front Neck Lock and drop him with the Piledriver to advance into Round 2. Suzuki was pleased with the match, telling everyone that DDT is not all about silly wrestling. He understands that when you step inside you can find a lot of strong wrestlers around. Suzuki now looks forward to fighting even stronger opponents as the tournament progresses until he gets all the way to claiming the KO-D Openweight Title for himself.

The one result in Round 1 that could be called an upset was last year’s finalist KANON losing to Shinya Aoki. While KANON had the power advantage to beat Aoki while standing, his ground game proved to be his undoing. Aoki got to take him down to the mat, apply some submissions and then flip himself on top of KANON with the European Clutch to get the three count.

A war of kicks broke out between HARASHIMA and Daichi Sato during their 1st Round match. Middle Kicks to the chest were thrown back and forth between them until HARASHIMA got Sato with a High Kick to the head. Sato fired back with a German Suplex and got some other strikes in until HARASHIMA cut him off to hit two Somatos for the win.

Junta Miyawaki jumped Chris Brookes before the bell by Dropkicking him out of the ring and then diving off the top turnbuckle to the floor. The tactic quickly backfired when Brookes reversed an Irish Whip at ringside that flung Miyawaki into the front rows of chairs. There were some close calls back in the ring with Brookes almost being pinned with the Sunshine Clutch and a German Suplex. Miyawaki also had a last gasp with trying to roll Brookes up as a counter to the Praying Mantis Bomb. Brookes cut him off with a Lariat though and used his finisher to knock Miyawaki out of the tournament.

It seemed that To-y in fact did not get over having Takeshi Masada’s two fingers stuck down his throat because he reactively started to gag whenever Masada raised his fingers towards him. He eventually got over his fear midway through the match but it wasn’t enough of a difference maker to actually make him win. Instead Masada countered the Kojima Impact and pinned his opponent with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki to advance.

Round 1 opened up with one champion eliminating another. Hideki Okatani bested Yuya Koroku in an almost entirely clean manner. When Koroku had him in an Armlock, Okatani tried stomping his way out of the move. Koroku swapped over to the Triangle Lancer but Okatani struggled back to his feet and then forcefully pulled on the back of Koroku’s collar to free himself from the hold while choking his opponent. That opened up some space for Okatani to hit a Spinning Back Elbow. Koroku went for the Triangle Lancer once more but Okatani countered it into a Vertical Drop Brainbuster. When that didn’t end the match, Okatani then hit the Skewered Claymore to get the three count.

There were two dark matches on the card featuring the rest of the DDT roster that were not taking part in the tournament. The 37KAMIINA beat DAMNATION T.A and FANTÔMES DRAMATIC in a 3 Way Tag Match. MJ Paul almost took out all of the opposition by himself. Daisuke Sasaki tried to pick up the pieces by putting Yuki Ueno in the Crossface Lock but Shunma Katsumata was there to break it up. Antonio Honda charged up the Shining Gongitsune only for Ueno to deflect it back into him. Hinata Kasai then saw his chance to try and win but Ueno cut him off pretty easily and made him tap out to a Crab Hold.

The other dark match began with former members of Harimao facing each other. Yuki Ishida and Naomi Yoshimura started off with their collisions turning into something out of sumo. Yuni and Viento Maligno then tried to out-do each other on the high flying front. Yuni was then caught by Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata so the two of them could baseball chop him. Jun Akiyama evened the odds when he tagged in and his team scored the win all thanks to Rukiya using a modified Fisherman Buster to pin Maligno. Rukiya grabbed Maligno’s leg by the inside of his thigh instead of the outside like you would normally do, which is what makes the R. Fisherman Buster his own unique take on the move.

The King Of DDT 2nd Round matches being held on 9th May are Danshoku Dieno Vs Takeshi Masada, Minoru Suzuki Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA Vs Shinya Aoki and Hideki Okatani Vs MAO. All eight wrestlers were brought down to the ring at the end of the show to briefly interact with their next opponents.

DDT “SAPPORO GOLDEN BATTLE 2026” Results

May 2, 2026

DDT “SAPPORO GOLDEN BATTLE 2026”, 02/05/2026
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Junta Miyawaki & Yukio Naya defeated Kazuma Sumi & Yuki Ishida when Miyawaki pinned Ishida with the Sunshine Driver (9:32).
2. Reverse Lumberjack ~Jackberlum Match~: Danshoku Dieno defeated Kazuki Hirata and Akito by a 5-Count Double Countout (7:42).
3. Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata defeated Tomoya & Hinata Kasai when Inahata submitted Kasai with a Cran Hold (7:39).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Takeshi Masada & Kumadori defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul when Akiyama submitted Paul with the Front Neck Lock (11:38).
5. Sapporo Studio Five Presents Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Art Is A Battle! Rules: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when To-y pinned Honda with the Kojima Impact (15:01).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) defeated MAO, KANON & Viento Maligno (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Masada pinned Maligno with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (22:49).
*V3 for paleyouth.

A big mental block was placed on Yuya Koroku by Strange Love Connection before the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match began. KIMIHIRO taunted Koroku with a rap and then encouraged him to respond in kind. Koroku couldn’t do it though and was left shaken by this mental block. KIMIHIRO tried to do it again but Takeshi Masada got him to shut up and paleyouth attacked SLC to start the match. The champions retained the belts when Masada pinned Viento Maligno to win. KIMIHIRO then handed over the microphone to Koroku afterwards to make a victory speech. Masada told Koroku the meaning of this was significant so he can’t just do a regular speech. Koroku agreed and was able to give everyone a “Yuya Rap” instead.

The semi-main event was sponsored by Sapporo Studio Five, a photography studio so the match had a special rule where pinfalls and submissions only counted if the poses looked highly artistic. Saki Akai often works with the studio so she was involved in the match as a special guest commentator speaking over a live microphone at ringside. Despite being retired for two and a half years, she was drawn to get back into the ring gradually rediscovered her wrestling abilities. She blocked Antonio Honda’s Gongitsune attack and redirected it towards Chris Brookes. That cause Brookes to attack Akai in retaliation but she avoided the Praying Mantis Bomb and even gave Brookes the Quetzalcoatl! To-y went on to beat Honda and his prize was a free photoshoot at Sapporo Studio Five the next time he visits the area. Both Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata were jealous and wanted the prize for themselves. To-y wouldn’t give it to them but he did reveal that DDT’s next shows in Sapporo are on 11th and 12th October.

Match #2 was turned into a Reverse Lumberjack match, or a Jackberlum match if you will. The wrestlers had to start fighting outside the ring and whenever there are at least two of them in the ring, the referee would start a 5 Count and disqualify whoever is still in the ring when he reaches five. A ref bump prevented Kazuki Hirata from winning the match while he and Akito were in the ring. Danshoku Dieno grabbed Hirata from the ring apron and gave him the Lip Lock. Akito then stumbled into Hirata in the middle of the ring to inadvertedly give him the Lip Lock too, knocking both of them out. Yukinori Matsui then counted out Akito and Hirata while Dieno stood out on the ring apron celebrating his victory.

DDT “LET’S GO FOR 5 X 1 DDT!” Results

May 1, 2026

DDT “LET’S GO FOR 5 X 1 DDT!” 2026, 01/05/2026
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: Hideki Okatani defeated Viento Maligno with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster (8:28).
2. Danshoku Dieno & Yukio Naya defeated Kazuma Sumi & Yuki Ishida when Naya pinned Ishida with La Magistral Cradle (10:03).
3. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Tomoya, Noriyuki Yoshida, Kazuki Hirata & Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Akito, Antonio Honda, Junta Miyawaki & Hinata Kasai when Yoshida pinned Kasai with the Authorized Lightning Leg Lariat (10:13).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Kumadori when Katsumata pinned Kumadori with the Totonou Splash (15:43).
5. MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Jun Akiyama & Masami Inahata when KANON pinned Inahata with the GURU-GURU Driver (11:48).
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA (c) defeated Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul when HARASHIMA pinned Paul with the Swan Dive Somato (15:09).
*V1 for FANTÔMES DRAMATIC.

Daisuke Sasaki returned from his American expedition already getting a title match, teaming up with MJ Paul to challenge FANTÔMES DRAMATIC for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Paul stepped in to replace the injured Ilusion for the match but this was not an uplifting story of one friend helping out another. DAMNATION T.A were there to cause whatever trouble they could. Sasaki & Paul attacked Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA with chairs while Hideki Okatani found openings to interfere in the match too. However Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai evened the odds, allowing HARASHIMA to land the Somato on Paul. That by itself wasn’t enough to put the big man down so HARASHIMA jumped off the ropes to do the Swan Dive Somato on Paul to get the victory. Sasaki blamed the loss on his “leader” Ilusion being missing and also from being tired after taking a long flight home from America. He also complained about immediately being given a title shot for his first match back when he couldn’t get prepared for it.

Kumadori is learning how things aren’t always going to go his way in wrestling. He hyped up his first appearance in Sapporo only to be pinned by Shunma Katsumata in a tag match. Katsumata rubbed salt in the wounds a little bit by giving him the NeppaWER!! pose instead of a handshake after the match.

Not sure if I wrote about this before. The reason why Noriyuki Yoshida’s finisher is called the Authorized Lightning Leg Lariat is because he got Kengo Kimura’s permission to use the move.

DDT Around The World – Late April 2026

May 1, 2026

I haven’t gotten around to looking into what happened on Tokyo Joshi Pro’s two European shows outside of the basic results. All I know is Miyu Yamashita has more plans coming up to wrestle across the world this year. While she doesn’t have to wait long until she packs her suitcase again, Daisuke Sasaki is emptying his after finishing up his month long journey across North America. He found a few more places in America to wrestle in before he made the trip back home.

It’s a little hard to tell if the summer is going to get busier for overseas bookings. Is there much of an appetite for international wrestling when the World Cup is going to be on? CMLL is counting on it and Konosuke Takeshita has at least one date with them in June. I’m going to curse out the company if they use their AI poster art to make him look like a Captain Tsubasa drawing.

LUCHA WRESTLING PURORESU “LUCHA LIBRE MEXICANA”, 19/04/2026
Xander Sports Arena, Los Angeles, California, USA

1. Drago, Genio del Aire & Torito Negro defeated Doble Cara, Daisuke Sasaki & Ultimo Maldito when Drago pinned Sasaki with the Tail Of The Dragon (?:??).

Sasaki is one of the more likely DDT wrestlers to go in search of lucha libre when he travels over to the Americas. He didn’t go visit Mexico this time around but he got down there close enough by getting a lucha booking in LA. While there he got to lock horns with Drago as part of a trios match. Sasaki and his rudo partners beat down the other team and held Torito Negro in the Kaientai pose. Genio del Aire tried to make a big counter attack by doing a jumping Hurricanrana to Ultimo Maldito from the human tower only to crash on top of his own head and neck in a disasterous looking botch. Drago inspired the tecnico team’s comeback and both of his partners Moonsaulted out of the ring onto Doble Cara & Maldito. That left Sasaki to duke it out with Drago but he was whipped around into the Tail Of The Dragon llave pin, losing the match to the veteran luchador.

LABOR OF LOVE “THE EXHIBITION”, 25/04/2026
Icebox Project Space, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

1. Anything Goes: Big Callux defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Black Hole Slam (?:??).

The final stopping point for Sasaki was at The City Of Brotherly Love. Too bad Sasaki hates love because all it ever did was hurt him. The Philly indie scene isn’t what it used to be and hasn’t been for a very long time. But Labor Of Love has popped up to try and find its place in a world that has long since moved on from the days when the corner of Swanson and Ritner St was considered the centrepoint of the American indies. Sasaki went to Philadelphia for a fight with Big Callux where before the match the stipulation was revealed to be Anything Goes. Callux brought along a bag of gifts for Sasaki that included a Gritty toy. Sasaki ripped it in half and threw the remains into the crowd! Callux then gave Sasaki a bouquet of roses but Sasaki just attacked him with them. More fighting broke out with a chair, a chain and also a hockey stick being used as weapons. Sasaki got into the hockey vibes by putting on a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey to piss off the Philly fans even more. He tried to put Callux in the Crossface Lock with the chain to assist him but Callux powered out of it. Sasaki then got the upper hand by unmasking Callux as a distraction to hit him over the head with the chair and then Pedigree him onto it. Callux kicked out though and threw Sasaki from the top rope onto the chair laid out in the middle of the ring. He then hit the Black Hole Slam to win the match, much like how the Philadelphia Flyers went on to win the series against the Penguins in the NHL playoffs a couple of days later.

Upcoming Appearances


ROH “SUPERCARD OF HONOR”, 15/05/2026
Wicomico Youth And Civic Center, Salisbury, Maryland, USA

1. ROH Women’s World Title – Survival Of The Fittest Match: Athena (c) Vs Yuka Sakazaki Vs Trish Adora Vs Billie Starkz Vs Persephone Vs Maya World

All of the competitors have been confirmed and it’s official. Yuka Sakazaki is among the six wrestlers entering Ring Of Honor’s annual Survival Of The Fittest elimination match. Athena’s reign as ROH Women’s World Champion has reached preposterous levels of record breaking in terms of length. Seriously is this the longest running championship reign with so few highlights to exist in modern times?


BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “MNL”, 23/05/2026
Sari Sari Makati, Makati, Philippines

1. Hotdog De San Jose & Super P Vs Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes

The first match announced for the show has Chris Brookes teaming up with Zack Sabre Jr. again, bringing SchadenTekkers over to the Philippines. Super P has found a sort of familiar looking super friend in Hotdog De San Jose which means together they are Team SuperHotdog!


GCW/BZW “NOW OR NEVER”, 23/05/2026
Espace Isabelle de Hainaut, Rue de Saint-Quentin, Bapaume, France

1. BZW Tag Team Titles – 3 Way Tag Match: MAO & Yoshihiko (c) Vs MBM & Ultima Sombra Vs Jimmy Lloyd & Jeffrey John

It’s the biggest risk of danger yet for MAO & Yoshihiko in their travels around Europe. They are stuck in the middle of the BZW Vs GCW battle coming up in France and both sides want to take the BZW Tag Team Titles away from them. In the 3 Way Match BZW are sending in Rivality. They are familiar faces to the champions because MBM & Ultima Sombra did a tour in Japan with DDT last year. GCW will be represented by Jimmy Lloyd & Jeffrey John. Gotta be honest they’re not really sending their best into the fight here. Like they have Nick Gage & Vipress teaming up in one of the other matches. That team sounds like a threat!


DXCN “DAKILA II”, 24/05/2026
Brawl Pit Bulusan, Quezon City, Philippines

1. 4 Way Match: Jonathan Johnson Vs Robin Sane Vs Shaheen Vs Munetatsu Nakamura
2. Chris Brookes Vs X

It’s likely that Munetatsu Nakamura will be part of the Baka Gaijin in Manila show as well but for now he’s just been announced for the Dexcon show happening the next day. Even if this turns out to be his only match of the weekend it is still his first overseas expedition which is exciting enough by itself.


AEW “DOUBLE OR NOTHING”, 24/05/2026
Louis Armstrong Stadium, New York City, New York, USA

1. AEW International Title: Kazuchika Okada (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita

Here we go, here we go, here we go! Shenanigans spoiled the previous singles match Takeshita had with Kazuchika Okada and let’s face it, shenanigans will likely happen again. But stakes are still high and the feud is finally heading towards its breaking point. Surely this has to be the blowoff with one of them getting kicked out of The Don Callis Family at the end, right?


EVE “EVE 150: HISTORY MAKERS RULE BREAKERS!”, 05/06/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title: Kris Statlander (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

The tournament that Yamashita won at the EVE x TJPW show made her the No. 1 Contender for the EVE International Title. She held their main championship during her big push there back in 2023. Is history going to repeat itself when she fights Kris Statlander from AEW for EVE’s other singles title?


WXW “DRIVE OF CHAMPIONS 2026”, 06/06/2026
Turbinenhalle 1, Oberhausen, Germany

1. Ahura & Jun Akiyama Vs 1 Called Manders & Thomas Shire

Is Ahura still going to be in wXw by the time this match happens? He was at the WWE European tryout this past week.


CMLL “FANTASTICA MANIA 2026”, 19/06/2026
Arena Mexico, Mexico City, Distrito Federal, Mexico

1. Konosuke Takeshita Vs X

Takeshita heads back to Mexico this summer when CMLL holds their version of the “FANTASTICA MANIA” series with New Japan.

April 25, 2026

Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Shinya Aoki defeated Rukiya with the European Clutch (9:42).
2. Kazuki Hirata & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda when Yoshimura submitted Honda with a Side Headlock (0:02).
2a. 1 Vs 3 Handicap Match ~ No Tag Rules: Naomi Yoshimura defeated Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda when Yoshimura submitted Hirata with the Anal Side Headlock (8:53).
3. No Tag Rules: MAO, KANON, Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Viento Maligno defeated Kazuma Sumi, Junta Miyawaki, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Yuni & Yuki Ishida when MAO pinned Yuni with the Totsugeki Love Heart (12:44).
4. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Akito defeated Daichi Sato & Masami Inahata when Ueno pinned Inahata with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (15:46).
5. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Hideki Okatani, Minoru Fujita & MJ Paul defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Hinata Kasai when Okatani pinned Kasai with the Skewered Claymore (12:47).
6. paleyouth Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku when To-y pinned Masada with a Frankensteiner (16:53).

Recently Takeshi Masada stuck two of his fingers into To-y’s mouth during a match, causing To-y to gag uncontrollably. Since then Masada has been playing mind games with To-y by sticking his two fingers near his face to make him flinch some more. Shunma Katsumata sacrificed himself by stepping in the way, causing Masada’s fingers to stick into his mouth instead. It was a successful distraction that allowed To-y to pin Masada with a Frankensteiner. He then bragged about how healthy his throat is because he was able to protect himself. Now he is no longer afraid of Masada’s fingers and is ready to fight him at King Of DDT next month. He later noticed how much Katsumata was gagging and promised to get revenge on Masada for him. While all of that is going on, Yuya Koroku is staying focused on wrestling Hideki Okatani next month both in the tournament and in a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match.

With Daisuke Sasaki still abroad and Ilusion out injured, DAMNATION T.A called upon their former member Minoru Fujita to help fill their ranks on short notice. Also Okatani stepped up to more of a leadership role and sent a message to the absent members that he will win the King Of DDT for them, He told Sasaki to enjoy the rest of his stay in America and Ilusion to get better so he can come back and get revenge on Chris Brookes for hurting him. HARASHIMA was reminded from today’s match how dangerous MJ Paul can be and learned to be careful of him for the upcoming KO-D Tag Team Titles match.

Yuki Ueno praised both Daichi Sato & Masami Inahata after their match and encouraged the both of them to get stronger. Inahata declared that some day he will crush Ueno!

The Totsugeki Love Heart is a Choke Slam/Crucifix Pin combo used together by Yukio Naya & MAO. With King Of DDT coming up, MAO reminded Kazuma Sumi who it was that made the DDT Universal Title valuable in the first place. MAO thinks Sumi will have to surprise him in order to beat him.

The big news regarding King Of DDT coming out of today’s show is the big draw will no longer be taking part! Kaisei Takechi was recently diagnosed with an acute appendicitis and had to pull out of the tournament. This was announced at the start of the show and DDT promised to announce his replacement as soon as it was decided on. Then at the end of the show Hisaya Imabayashi revealed that Kazuki Hirata is taking Takechi’s spot! Hirata said he was about to go on holiday to Okinawa tomorrow and was angry about the news but then he thought about all of the people who are upset over the cancellation of Takechi versus Danshoku Dieno, those two in particular being the most disappointed of all. Hirata knows how difficult it will be for him to just get out of Round 1 but if he beats Dieno, he wants Takechi to promise him they can take a picture together of them wearing their entrance robes.
