Meanwhile Daiki Shimomura, Tetsuo Usui and referee Yuya Okada have gone into quarantine after coming into close contact with someone who has the virus while wrestling for other promotions (it is unclear if they are referring to Urano). The Shimomura Vs Usui match on the afternoon show has now been cancelled. The evening show is also mixing some matches around. The new main event will be 6-Man Tag Team Elimination match with teams decided right before it takes place.

??? Fans – Withheld

1. Leo Isaka defeated Tetsuo Usui with the Hiroyuki Kondo Style Arm Sasori Katame (10:25).
2. Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa defeated Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Gouma Ryu when SAGAT pinned Ryu after the Three Tiered Body Press (10:01).

6. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Fuminori Abe (c) with a High Angle Backslide Pin (17:33).
*Fuminori Abe fails in V5. Takumi Tsukamoto becomes the 15th Union MAX Champion!

In his third attempt, Takumi Tsukamoto has become the new Union MAX Champion! After the match the former champion Fuminori Abe admitted he never felt more frustrated after a loss. He was able to do so much as the MAX Champion and it today he was reminded there is somebody out there stronger than him. He remembered when he won the title from Masahiro Takanashi under unfortunate circumstances. The BASARA fans still supported him and still treated him like a deserving champion. He knows they will continue to support him so he will be 100 million times stronger when he fights Tsukamoto again in order to win the belt back! Tsukamoto said that BASARA is just about to become 5 years old. It is still an immature and developing promotion just like he is still an immature and developing human being. He burst into tears from the crowd cheering him and joked about being a crybaby. He promised to devote himself to being Takumi Tsukamoto in order to get even more stronger.

One of the IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT semi-finals is set. IRON PRIEST will take on Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura for a spot in the final on 7th December. It is the rematch of last year’s final and Shimomura wants revenge!

In the week leading up to the show, FUMA announced the Iron Family was disbanding and a new unit will replace it. The new unit is called Asian Kung Fu Revolution because the roots of both yoga and heavy metal can be found in Asia. FUMA, Yusuke Kubo, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato are the members of this group.

BASARA “BASARA 135 ~GLITTER~” Results

September 30, 2020

BASARA “BASARA 135 ~GLITTER~”, 29/09/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. FUMA defeated Tetsuo Usui with a Stretch Muffler (7:37).
2. Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino defeated Takato Nakano & Yasu Urano when Kamino pinned Nakano with the Lariat (11:28).

7. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) defeated Brahman Kei (w/ Brahman Shu) with an Onryo Clutch (12:13).
*V4 for Fuminori Abe.

The Brahman Brothers disinfected the ring during their entrance because they are still concerned over getting infected with the Coronavirus. Brahman Kei tried to do the twin magic spot with both Brahman Shu and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi at ringside. Fuminori Abe didn’t fall for it but was still distracted long enough for Kei to attack him from behind. Takuya Nomura helped Abe at certain moments to even out the odds. Shu then took out his secret weapon, an Ultimo Dragon mask! He wore it and tried to do Ultimo Dragon moves until Abe blocked the Asai DDT. Abe then used the Irabu Punch to stun The Brahmans into hitting each other. Shy threw powder in Abe’s face in a moment of desperation and Kei used La Magistral Cradle for a nearfall. Abe regained his senses and pinned Kei with the Onryo Clutch to defend the Union MAX Title.

After the match, Takumi Tsukamoto challenged Abe to be his next challenger. However, Masato Kamino also came out asking for a title shot because he pinned Takato Nakano today. Abe called that a weak reason and suggested a No. 1 Contender match between Tsukamoto and Kamino. He would rather choose the challenger that way than defend the title against both in a 3 Way.

Daiki Shimomura and Leo Isaka both gestured they want a rematch with each other.

Daichi Kazato wants to bring the IRON FIST TAG Titles back to BASARA. He and Hiroshi challenged Speed Of Sounds to a title match at the next Shin-Kiba 1st RING show.

BASARA “BASARA 131 ~BANQUET~” Results

August 26, 2020

BASARA “BASARA 131 ~BANQUET~”, 25/08/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans (Withheld)

1. Masato Kamino defeated Tetsuo Usui with a Lariat (11:35).
2. Ryota Nakatsu & Akiyori Takizawa defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Yusuke Kubo when Nakatsu pinned Hiroshi with the V Slider (9:26). (Special Referee: Gouma Ryu)
3. Isami Kodaka defeated Leo Isaka with the Modified Samson Clutch (8:15).
4. Hardcore Tag Match: Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA & SAGAT when Fujita pinned SAGAT with the Tombstone Piledriver onto a chair (11:03).
5. Takumi Tsukamoto, Takato Nakano & Yasu Urano defeated Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Daichi Kazato when Tsukamoto pinned Kazato with the Running Zudon (12:18).
6. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Manjigatame (19:10).
*V2 for Fuminori Abe.

Fuminori Abe said he will always think of Daiki Shimomura as his rival after the match. He will never lose to his rival but that is what makes him stronger. Shimomura hasn’t beaten Abe in singles matches yet but when he does he wants it to be for the Union MAX Title. After they shook hands, Nakatsu ran into the ring but tripped over himself. When he steadied himself, he told Abe he wants a MAX Title match at Korakuen Hall on 22nd September. Abe accepted and together they will show the future of BASARA in Korakuen.

Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano are forming a team to challenge Speed Of Sounds for the IRON FIST Tag Titles. Tsukamoto has a good track record teaming with Urano so it’s an opportunity he does not want to miss. They won the UWA World 6-Man Tag Team Titles last year with Takato Nakano. This direction means Nakano gets left out in the cold but Tsukamoto feels it has to happen for him and Urano to win the IRON FIST Titles. Speed Of Sounds admitted they would prefer to face Nakano rather than Urano. The title match will happen on the 8th September Shin-Kiba 1st RING show.

After some messaging back and forth, Atsushi Onita and NOSAWA Rongai agreed to make the main event a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match. This is going to be odd because at one point they promised no crowd brawling on the show because the Coronavirus limitations wouldn’t let them do it. The entire point of a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match is wrestlers charging through the crowd down to the ring when the match begins!

BASARA “BASARA 131 ~BANQUET~”, 25/08/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Masato Kamino Vs Tetsuo Usui

6. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomura Vs Fuminori Abe, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga

The BASARA champions Fuminori Abe & Speed Of Sounds team up to fight Sento Minzoku. Or maybe not if Abe loses the Union MAX Title to Daiki Shimomura before then.

1. Team Big Boomers Vs ALL OUT!: Jun Akiyama & Sanshiro Takagi Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata

The rivalry between Jun Akiyama and Konosuke Takeshita grows another branch. The Big Boomers have now arrived! Sanshiro Takagi has a new lease of life teaming with Akiyama. Meanwhile Shunma Katsumata is gaining more scars from doing death matches in Big Japan.

Naomichi Marufuji will be on the show.

Last year’s winner Mizuki faces the most recent Princess Title challenger Yuki Aino. The last remaining Up Up Girls member in the competition Miu Watanabe takes on Maki Itoh. Over on the other side of the bracket, Natsumi Maki and Shoko Nakajima promises to be frantic. Finally Miyu Yamashita’s meets the biggest reminder of her Princess Cup curse. Hyper Misao’s upset over Yamashita back in 2016 is what cemented this jinx in the first place. But did Misao use up all her luck knocking out Yuka Sakazaki?

DDT “BON DEMONE, ATASHA KAMISAMADA YO 2020”, 15/08/2020
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall

1. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Yukio Naya Vs Chris Brookes, Makoto Oishi & Mizuki Watase

Over in DDT they have a non-tournament show to get through on the same day. Nautilus have to shake off their eliminations and focus on defending the KO-D Tag Team Titles. The undercard has a few previews of next week’s big matches too.

DDT “BLACK OUT PRESENTS KING OF DDT 2020 FINAL!!”, 23/08/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Under Match – 3 Way Tag Match: Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Keigo Nakamura Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Yukio Naya

6. King Of DDT 2020 – Final: X Vs X

The King Of DDT is down to Tetsuya Endo, Kazusada Higuchi, Akito and T-Hawk. The winner headlines “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” at Ota Ward Gymnasium in November. Endo has different connections with the rest of the final four. He feuded with Higuchi throughout the DDT TV SHOW series earlier this year. He was beaten in the 1st Round by Akito but was rescued from elimination by winning the Dramatic Chance Battle Royal. And his partnership with T-Hawk is the origin of the DAMNHEARTS business alliance. Akito wants revenge on T-Hawk after he lost to him at “JUDGEMENT 2019” in Sumo Hall last February.

BAKUHA KOSHIEN “STREET FIGHT CLUB”, 25/08/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Gake no Fuchi Joshi Vs Pocchari Joshi Full Face To Face Battle!: Miyako Matsumoto & Chris Brookes Vs Yuna Manase & Yumehito Imanari
2. Hage Torongezu Vs #STRONGHEARTS!: Jiro Kuroshio & Seigo Tachibana Vs T-Hawk & El Lindaman
3. STREET FIGHT CLUB Special Match ~Royal Traditions Match~: Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya
4. Street Fight 6-Man Tag Match: Atsushi Onita, Yuko Miyamoto & Rocky Kawamura Vs Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Kaz Hayashi

Atsushi Onita got the toughest competition to fight his crew in the main event. Sugiura-gun from NOAH are entering the STREET FIGHT CLUB! Onita and Takashi Sugiura had a little death match feud half a decade ago that never really went anywhere. Might as well rekindle it because 2020 is weird enough to make it happen. There is also the two unusual joshi offshoots Gake no Fuchi Joshi and Pocchari Joshi getting paired against each other.

BASARA “BASARA 131 ~BANQUET~”, 25/08/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura

In the main event of the last BASARA show, Daiki Shimomura pinned Fuminori Abe to win the 8-Man Tag Team Elimination Match. That grants him a shot at the Union MAX Title. Abe quickly bounced back from that result two days later by winning the BJW Tag Team Titles with Takuya Nomura so he is now a double champion.

DDT “DAMNATION ILLEGAL RALLY RETURNS”, 29/08/2020
Shinjuku FACE

1. Shuji Ishikawa & Mad Paulie Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya
2. Tetsuya Endo Debut 8th Anniversary Match: Tetsuya Endo vs Ryuichi Sekine
3. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Tsutomu Oosugi

The DAMNATION produce show that was meant to happen back in June is now happening at the end of August. Shuji Ishikawa comes back for the occasion.

DDT “TAISHO DRAMATIC ROMANTAN 2020”, 05/09/2020
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall

1. Taisho Ward Specialty! Jun To Ai Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Maku Donaruto Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno
2. Junretsu Vs ALL OUT!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata

Junretsu and ALL OUT are back to fighting each other. Jun Akiyama is only scheduled to wrestle on four DDT shows in September. This is the first date. He will also be on the two Korakuen Hall shows as well as an event in Nagoya.

Chris Brookes & Maku Donaruto now get the chance to be more friendly towards each other.
