The world is more fucked up than ever before so the time has finally come for MAO to be its champion! In a rematch from two years ago MAO stepped into Sumo Hall to face Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title once more. Time will tell if this turns out to be DDT’s defining matchup for this generation but I can at least come out of it thinking this match came out better than the first one. Ueno got a nearfall with the Frog Splash and later dodged the Cannonball 450° so he could squeeze MAO with the Blackout Sleeper. MAO fought from beneath to kick out of the Jul.2 and also avoid the BME. Then in a flash of inspiration, MAO took a page out of his Moonlight Express days by doing the Ultima Weapon, the Shooting Star Knee Drop belonging to Speedball Mike Bailey. MAO switched over to using Palm Strikes while Ueno tried to combat them with Dropkicks. MAO got the better of the exchange and used the Michinoku Driver II to put Ueno in position for the match ending Cannonball 450°. With this win MAO has now become the KO-D Champion!

After the match MAO talked about coming so far ever since he watched DDT’s first Sumo Hall show back in 2009. During the time he’s been a pro wrestler he met Ueno who became his friend, his greatest rival and even his idol that he looks up to. Now he can finally put his own name next to Ueno’s. He thanked his friends in Strange Love Connection for being the reason he was able to beat Ueno today and finished by saying they won’t be stopping yet. MAO exited the ring and the show looked to have ended with him walking past everyone and receiving congratulations backstage. He then walked into the locker room to find Sanshiro Takagi standing in front of him. Takagi thanked him… then said just kidding, we’re getting a bonus title match!

Earlier in the show Takagi won his tag match and claimed one of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets that allowed him to get a KO-D Title shot whenever he wants. He started attacking MAO backstage and dragged him back down to the ring because he was cashing in his shot right now! If the main event was too serious for DDT, this was the swerve back in the other direction. Takagi attacked MAO on the entrance ramp with a fire extinguisher and also the Dramatic Dream bike. Then in the ring he bribed Masami Inahata 10,000 yen to bring in plastic boxes to use as weapons. Takagi broke one over MAO’s head but MAO got revenge by Power Bombing Takagi through one of the others. Takagi fired back by doing the Sit Down Sunflower Bomb and then climbed the top rope carryinh another box. He tried to do a Diving Body Press with the box but MAO blocked it with his knees and in the wreckage cradled Takagi with a Small Package to pin him for the three count. The night ends with MAO not just winning the KO-D Title but scoring his first defence too!

MAO got on the microphone to yell at Takagi for the stunt he just pulled. He’s always been a bad influence to MAO going back to that first Sumo Hall show in 2009. It’s bad enough that Takagi sent MAO down a terrible path to ruin his life but he also goes and does this to him? Takagi said MAO has some nerve to make that accusation given that MAO has run over Takagi with a vehicle four separate times. Takagi was going to congratulate him but then got pissed off and thought this was the perfect chance to get things his way. MAO criticized Takagi for being childish but Takagi said it’s not like MAO to despise that kind of behavior. This kind of childishness and absurdity is what makes DDT and its Dramatic Dream the way it is. The show then had its proper ending with the curtain call and Ueno wrapping the KO-D Title around MAO’s waist. Backstage MAO said he will be turning 30 during the year DDT celebrates its 30th anniversary so his goal is to remain champion throughout next year. Ueno is looking forward to seeing what MAO’s DDT will look like but this does not mean he is starting again from zero. He promises to always be at the front of DDT.

There was a time when Konosuke Takeshita was called “The Future” and now he finds himself standing across the ring from the next person who can take that moniker. Kaisei Takechi was taking part in only his 18th pro wrestling match to step up against one of the best in the world. He hasn’t come out of it in one piece as Takechi was favouring his left knee after hitting a Swan Dive Elbow Strike. He gutted through the injury to give Takeshita a Canadian Destroyer and also the BREAK IT DOWN. When that couldn’t beat Takeshita, Takechi switched to a Sleeper Hold and almost choked him out with it. But Takeshita kept hitting Takechi in the hurt knee with his elbow to break out of the hold. He then took a Dropkick only to fire back with the Wagamama for a nearfall. Takechi tried one more attack but Takeshita easily brushed him off and used the Raging Fire to win the match. Backstage Takechi said he believed Takeshita could’ve still beaten him if he held back but instead he fought with all of his might today. He promised to get even stronger and cooler so he can fight Takeshita again some day. Takeshita said today is the beginning of his story with Takechi and it is also the beginning of Takechi as a pro wrestler. His advice is for Takechi to think about what it means to stand in the ring inside Sumo Hall and also think about what he wants to do with DDT in the future.

This was a shocker. Kazuma Sumi should have taken Ryusuke Taguchi’s warning to heart. He spent too much time thinking about using Taguchi as a stepping stone that he ended up becoming the stepping stone instead! That’s right, Taguchi is now the DDT Universal Champion! Sumi relied heavily on high risk moves including a Reverse 450° Splash that missed. Taguchi on the other hand paced himself by targeting Sumi’s legs and repeatedly using the Oh My & Garankle Lock. Sumi then trusted on using the School Boy to try and pin the New Japan wrestler, especially as a counter for the Hip Attack. But the Ankle Lock plan paid off and Taguchi and he hit the Dodon. Sumi kicked out of it but Taguchi immediately used his finisher again to win the title. He then got to do his dance in the ring to celebrate.

On the way back to the locker room, Taguchi was suddenly met by Daisuke Sasaki on the entrance ramp. The two went back to the ring where Sasaki grabbed the microphone and said he didn’t expect Taguchi could be this serious. If this is the way Taguchi is going to be in DDT then Sasaki wants to challenge him for the Universal Title. Taguchi responded by impersonating Masahiro Chono and describing Sasaki as a charismatic challenger (“Black Charisma” was one of Chono’s nicknames). Hisaya Imabayashi decided the title match will take place in Korakuen Hall on 30th August. However Taguchi said he is supposed to attend a boat race in Shimonoseki that day. He’ll be able to do the match but he advised DDT to go ask New Japan first. NJPW would later give their permission for the match to go ahead. Backstage Sumi said there is so much he wanted to do with the Universal Title so he definitely wants to win it back. He then brought up Taguchi’s idea for the two of them to team up at the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League. He would like to take up that offer if there is a chance it can happen. His goal is to become the top junior heavyweight and he wants to seize any opportunity to take part in the Best Of The Super Jr. some day in the future.

Sasaki got to build up momentum to make the title challenge one match earlier. He teamed up with a different NJPW wrestler, DOUKI and showed up wearing a similar entrance mask as his partner’s. DOUKI made it clear to Tetsuya Endo what to expect by immediately poking him in the eye. Endo recovered and showed up his skills so DOUKI switched to stopping Antonio Honda from using Gongitsune when he could. Honda summoned the power of Hiroyoshi Tenzan by hitting DOUKI with Mongolian Chops and then planting him with the Tenzan Tombstone Driver. A Gongitsune misfire hit Endo by mistake but Honda was finally able to hit DOUKI with it. Endo got in on the fun too by doing a Swan Dive Gongitsune to Sasaki. Honda could have won when he hit the Diving Fist Drop to DOUKI but Ilusion pulled Daisuke Kiso out of the ring during the pinfall. DAMNATION T.A tried to replicate House Of Torture by setting up a signboard attack but Honda redirected Sasaki into knocking DOUKI off the ring apron. Honda then had a second chance of winning by using the Japanese Leg Roll Clutch to pin Sasaki but Kiso took too long to get back into the ring and Sasaki had enough time to kick out. DOUKI took out Endo with a Slingshot DDT and then hit Honda with the signboard while Kiso was distracted. That allowed Sasaki to use La Mistica Crossface Lock to make Honda submit.

The match between Danshoku Dieno and YAMATO revealed to an apparent rift that formed within the DDT Variety Team. Before the match took place Super Sasadango Machine, Toru Owashi and Akito all reminded Dieno of the rivalry between DDT and Dragon Gate. However Owashi then revealed that his allegiance is with Dragon Gate so he wouldn’t be in Dieno’s corner for the match! Dieno relied on Akito & Sasadango to interfere after Yukinori Matsui got knocked out with the Lip Lock. Dieno got into the Hell Gate position by shouting “Open The Dream Gate” out loud while his seconds tried to shove YAMATO face first into his rear. Owashi ran down to the ring to rescue YAMATO but ended up running face first into the Hell Gate instead. Then suddenly the DG wrestler Yosuke♡Santa Maria ran down to fight off Akito and Sasadango before turning on YAMATO so she could give him the Lip Lock! Maria helped Dieno give YAMATO the Danshoku Driver but it only got them a nearfall when Matsui recovered. Maria then gave Matsui the Lip Lock to knock him out again. YAMATO tried to make a comeback against the numbers disadvantage. An Enzuigiri to Dieno caused Dieno to fall forward with his backside fully exposed. YAMATO then knocked Maria face first into it with another Enzuigiri. By the time Matsui regained consciousness, he saw Dieno tapping out to YAMATO’s CBV submission hold and called for the end in YAMATO’s favour. Dieno later asked Maria backstage if there was something in the past between her and YAMATO because their interactions in the ring was like a lovers’ guarrel. Maria said there were a lot of things that happened in the past but wouldn’t go into detail. Dieno said Dragon Gate shouldn’t be allowing such an unusual relationship to happen in the workplace and threatened to go investigate if there are any other compliance violations.

New KO-D Tag Team Champions were crowned when Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki defeated FANTÔMES DRAMATIC. Aoki’s training that Miyawaki went through along with having some toughness of his own paid off. Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA tried to pick apart Miyawaki before switching over to Aoki. HARASHIMA went back to targeting Miyawaki and almost pinned him with the Somato but Aoki barely broke the pin in time. HARASHIMA then missed the Swan Dive Somato and Miyawaki suddenly tangled him into the Sunshine Clutch to get the three count out of nowhere for the title change! Miyawaki said it was a huge hurdle for him to finally win a championship in DDT and he achieved it because of Aoki. They now look forward to defending the title not just in DDT but in other places too so they can both reach the next level.

Their first challenge is coming up 30th August. Right after they won the titles, Aoki & Miyawaki were confronted by Jun Akiyama & Rukiya. The latter is feeling fired up because earlier in the show he won for the first time in Ryogoku. He now wants a title shot with Akiyama by his side. Miyawaki considered it because Aoki needs to train for his RIZIN fight coming up next month but Aoki accused Rukiya of only acting so brash because Akiyama is with him. Rukiya convinced him he’s doing this because he really wants the tag titles so the match is booked for Korakuen at the end of the month.

Hideki Okatani’s goal of finally beating Shunma Katsumata in a hardcore environment remains out of reach. The DDT Extreme Title was put on the line in a Barbed Wire Death Match that featured several weapons wrapped in the stuff. Chairs, a kendo stick, a barbed wire board and even a barbed wire turnbuckle were all used during the match. Okatani also wrapped some wire around Katsumata’s arm to hurt him that way. But Katsumata caused more damage giving Okatani a German Suplex onto a board. He then wrapped barbed wire around his waist and hit the Totonou Splash to win the match and take more than one prize from Okatani. Katsumata ended up winning both the Extreme Title and a Right To Challenge Gauntlet! He knows Okatani had a lot on his mind going into the match. Injuries derailed his career and Katsumata is sure he still thinks about Kazusada Higuchi. Katsumata understands how it feels and wants Okatani to know that as long as their bodies still move, they can liven up DDT. Okatani’s thoughts on the result is he is lacking something if he still cannot beat Katsumata in an Extreme Title match.

I’m not a father but I imagine some of the proudest moments a dad can have are hearing their kid’s first word, seeing their kid’s first steps and setting up their kid’s first death match skewer spot. Jun Kasai unexpectedly dug a bundle of them into Rukiya’s head while Hinata Kasai held him in a Headlock during their tag match. If that wasn’t enough, Jun pulled out a syringe and stuck it onto his own head before giving Rukiya a Lariat! Hinata didn’t go that far in copying his father but he did grab Jun’s goggles to tease doing the Pearl Harbor Splash. Jun Akiyama blocked him from doing the move and Rukiya took back control to win the match with the R. Fisherman Buster. The adrenaline rush he got from the match caused him to go challenge for the KO-D Tag Titles later in the show.

Things didn’t end there for the father and son tag team. Jun said he’s lived with Hinata for 22 years and has never seen the expressions on his face he made today. Today was fun but Jun needs more stimulation so he is challenging Hinata to a singles match as soon as possible! He would even do it right now but Imabayashi stepped in to tell him the result would be too predictable. So instead DDT will book the match for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2026” at Sumo Hall on 3rd November. Backstage Hinata said he learned pro wrestling doesn’t end with happy endings like a fairy tale. This match was to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of his debut and he still lost. But teaming with his father who introduced him to pro wrestling may finally open the door for this skinny, unathletic nobody to turn into something special! He promises to give his dad the ultimate excitement on 3rd November!

It turns out the tag team of Minoru Suzuki & Sanshiro Takagi is actually kind of viable. Suzuki’s presence intimidated Kazuki Hirata to the point where Hirata almost couldn’t do anything but To-y had no such fear of fighting him. Hirata tried to encourage Suzuki into wearing the Hirata GO! glasses but he snapped them in half instead, causing Hirata to faint in shock. To-y was convinced that Hirata died so he fought to avenge him. However he jumped into thin air and hit the canvas while Takagi & Suzuki were arguing with each other. Hirata recovered from his near-death experience and caused Suzuki to knock To-y on top of Suzuki for a nearfall. Suzuki chased Hirata all around Sumo Hall while back in the ring Takagi caught To-y in mid-air with a Sunner and then pinned him with another Stunner. Because of this result, Takagi had won a Right To Challenge Gauntlet and he ended up using it to cash in the title shot at the end of the show.

A big prize was on the line for the Battle Royal. No, it was not the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title for whoever won the match. Whoever was the champion entering the ring would be rewarded with a year long bullet train pass to be used whenever DDT runs shows outside of Tokyo. At some point before the show Yuki Ishida lost the title to Ilusion. Then moments before the match began a string of title changes in a hallway had the belt move from Ilusion to Super Sasadango Machine to Ishida to Yuni to Kazuki Hirata, who was not booked for the match. But as Hirata made his entrance, he was suddenly grabbed from behind by Akito and put in an Ankle Lock on the stage. Hirata tapped out and Akito made it to the ring as the champion to win the train pass!

The Rumble match then went ahead with wrestlers like Yuki Iino and Naomi Yoshimura scoring eliminations. Akito lost the title during the match when he submitted to Masami Inahata’s Argentine Backbreaker. Sasadango entered the match by handing SSM masks to everyone in the ring. MJ Paul refused so the Sasadango group all ganged up on him, forced him to wear the mask and join their side much to Ilusion’s chagrin. The final entrant Yoshihiko cleared the ring, winning the Iron Man Title in the process. It last eliminated Fuminori Abe but Ilusion was still there to give Yoshihiko a fight. Ilusion survived taking the Infinity Destroyer and blocked the Reincarnation to throw Yoshihiko out of the ring and into the crowd a few rows deep. Ilusion’s title win was short lived though. Kazuki Hirata snuck up on him in his Hammer Hirata form and knocked out Ilusion to win the title for himself. Hirata then had to revert back to his normal self because his tag match was next.

The record for most KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title defences has not been broken after paleyouth failed to beat Strange Love Connection in the opening match. The match came down to Takeshi Masada facing off with Viento Levante with everyone else coming in to assist when needed. KANON & Yukio Naya held Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato in place for Levante to Moonsault onto them outside the ring. Levante then hit the Diving Headbutt on Masada for a nearfall. Koroku hit the other SLC members with a dive but paleyouth couldn’t capitalise on it. Levante instead tackled Masada to the mat and kept pinning him down until he somehow got a three count out of it! paleyouth weren’t happy with losing the titles that way and challenged SLC backstage to a rematch for the belts on 17th August. If paleyouth are going to be beaten, they want to be beaten to a pulp! KANON warned that next time SLC aren’t just going to leave it to Levante to win the match. He and Naya want to get the win for themselves too.

There was a little bit extra that happened after the show. DDT brought in another member of THE RAMPAGE to take part in the show. Shogo Yamamoto spoke to reporters about how it went afterwards when Kazuki Hirata and To-y suddenly broke into the room fighting over the Iron Man Title. The two of them knocked each other out so Yamamoto decided to pin Hirata and win the Iron Man Title. Then later in the evening MAO unintentionally tricked Yamamoto into giving up the title over to him when Yukinori Matsui overheard their conversation and misunderstood what was said.

It was announced during the show DDT will hold their 30th Anniversary show “JUDGEMENT 2027” at Sumo Hall on 22nd March next year. Akito later said the 29th Anniversary this year was put together to show everything DDT has to offer. Careful decisions will have to be made for the 30th Anniversary. According to Akito it is unclear if the Tokyo Dome will be a realistic target next year but they hope it can become one in the future.

DDT “OSAKA VS TOKYO ~DREAM EAST-WEST PRO WRESTLING BATTLE 2026~” Results

August 2, 2026

DDT “OSAKA VS TOKYO ~DREAM EAST-WEST PRO WRESTLING BATTLE 2026~”, 02/08/2026
Osaka Umeda Stella Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

*KANON wins Rukiya’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.
2. East Vs West Unknown Showdown ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Soma Takao (Tokyo) & Shota (Tokyo) defeated Akito (Aichi) & Naomi Yoshimura (Osaka) and MJ Paul (Unknown) & Ilusion (Unknown) when Shota pinned Ilusion with the Frog Splash (9:39).
3. East Vs West Showdown ~ Special Single Match: Gym Trainer Kotoka (Kumamoto) defeated Kazuki Hirata (Tokyo) by Referee Stoppage with Hanging via Battle Ropes (13:46).
4. East Vs West Showdown: Kazuma Sumi (Mie) & Junta Miyawaki (Kagawa) defeated Shunma Katsumata (Chiba) & To-y (Saitama) when Sumi pinned To-y with the School Boy (9:37).
5. East Vs West Showdown ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Takeshi Masada (Osaka/Vice Captain), Hideki Okatani (Kochi) & Chris Brookes (Great Britain) defeated Yuya Koroku (Chiba/Vice Captain), Daisuke Sasaki (Tokyo) & Yukio Naya (Tokyo) when Masada pinned Koroku with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (10:40).
6. East Vs West Showdown: HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) defeated Jun Akiyama (Osaka) & Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima) when Honda pinned Dieno with the Diving Fist Drop (11:33).
7. East Vs West Showdown ~ Special Tag Match: MAO (Miyagi/Captain) (w/ KIMIHIRO (Tokyo)) & Shinya Aoki (Shizuoka) defeated Yuki Ueno (Osaka/Captain) & Sanshiro Takagi (Osaka) when MAO pinned Takagi with the Cannonball 450° (17:45).

Today’s show in Osaka split the DDT locker room into two teams based on the east and west sides of Japan. The series went into a main event tied at three wins a piece. The contest became so heated at this point that even the referees started to pick sides. Yukinori Matsui started favoring the West Team so Daisuke Kiso felt the need to get in his way to make sure the East Team wouldn’t have the disadvantage for long. It led to wrestlers from all sides getting involved in train attacks. Sanshiro Takagi lost track of who was on his team so he gave Stunners to both Yuki Ueno and MAO. Ueno was then hit with a Topé Suicida from Shinya Aoki while MAO recovered and went on to pin Takagi with the Cannonball 450°.

After the match MAO put aside the East Vs West contest to talk about the earthquake that happened in Kumamoto last week. He remembers the support Miyagi received from all over Japan back in 2011 so he called for everyone to unite as a nation. Yuki Ishida also spoke about his hometown Yatsushiro City suffering a lot of damage from the earthquake and it leaves him feeling angry at himself for being unable to do anything about it. All he can do is hope how hard he fights in the ring can give Kumamoto even a little bit of encouragement.

The Anytime Anywhere Anytime Anywhere Gauntlet changed hands again. Now KANON is the holder of the purple Gauntlet after he pinned Rukiya in the opener.

At the end of the show Naomi Yoshimura announced he is going to have a match on 4th October to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of his debut. He wants it to be a singles match because he already has a certain opponent in mind.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 32: SO GLAD FOR THE MADNESS” Results

July 19, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 32: SO GLAD FOR THE MADNESS”, 19/07/2026
Nagoya Sportiva Arena
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Wasabi Cream Puff Death Match: Antonio Honda Vs Sayaka ended in a Draw after both of them ate a Wasabi Cream Puff (11:37).
2. HARASHIMA & Chie Koishikawa defeated Dark King Ueki & Princess Ram when HARASHIMA pinned Ueki with the Somato (7:40).
3. MAO defeated Konaka = Pehlwan with a Reverse Rolling Cradle (12:27).
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Yuta Oya defeated Mr. Bueno & Mr. Malo when Oya pinned Malo with the Kesagiri Chop (25:20).

The Sportiva Arena in Nagoya welcomed Baka Gaijin + Friends with open arms for the group’s first Japanese trek outside of Tokyo. Chris Brookes reunited with Yuta Oya after their singles match back in February. This time they were teaming up in the main event to take on the masked brothers Mr. Bueno & Mr. Malo. Brookes also called in Hinata Kasai to help out at points but he was easily manhandled by Bueno. The new environment encouraged the Baka Gaijin to take the fight over to the stage area where Malo placed his black rudo mask over Bueno’s head, turning Bueno into a rudo! However Bueno acted so much like a rudo that he started insulting everybody and even made Malo cry. He ended up getting into an argument with Daisuke Kiso and slapped him over the head with his glove because Bueno does not understand Japanese. Yukinori Matsui stood up for his colleague and clapped Bueno across the face. Brookes then led a train attack on Bueno, throwing almost every other person who appeared on the show into him. Oya finally pulled the mask off to return Bueno back to normal and they had a fair fight with each other. Malo stepped in and went back to rudo mode by giving Oya a Low Blow. Oya figured out Malo’s game plan at that point and anticipated he would do it again. So despite being blind, Oya was able to block Malo’s low blow the second time. Then with a big swing of his arm he knocked Malo down with the Kesagiri Chop and pinned him for the three count.

MAO was given as odd an opponent as you can find in Nagoya when Konaka = Pehlwan made his way down to the mat. The pale looking yoga wrestler may have met his match when it comes to the craziness stakes. MAO placed several stools together and laid Konaka on top of them. He then grabbed the ceiling frame and lifted himself above with the intention to splash down onto his opponent. But Konaka moved out of the way while MAO was hanging and he poked him with a broom. MAO wouldn’t let go so Konaka grabbed a crocodile toy and made it bite MAO in the crotch, forcing MAO to finally drop and crash into the stools. Konaka then used MAO’s plan against him, laying him onto more stools and then swinging back and forth from the ceiling in the yoga cross legged position before dropping himself right onto MAO. Konaka switched from the stool attacks and instead tried to pin MAO with cradles but that backfired with MAO ultimately rolling things into his favour so he got the three count instead.

A brand new location means brand new people for Ueki’s Magic Kingdom to kidnap. Princess Ram forced Rekka and Hinata Kasai to decide which of them would be taken prisoner. Rekka won a game of rock paper scissors but Ram decided that meant Rekka won the right to be captured. Munek was not at the show but his magic wand was still there so Dark King Ueki & Princess Ram both had turns trying to cast spells. They successfully used it to freeze HARASHIMA but Ram got into a struggle over the wand with Chie Koishikawa and they ended up freezing Ueki over it. Chie chased Ram away while HARASHIMA broke free from the spell to pin Ueki with the Somato. The Magic Kingdom lost their match but still left Nagoya with something. After the match they bumped into Antonio Honda and successfully cast a spell on him to turn him evil! After that was done, Shin Suzuki remembered that Rekka was still imprisoned so he found the wand and cast the spell to set him free.

Honda’s match against Sayaka in the opener turned out to be the much dreaded Wasabi Cream Puff Death Match! Every time a wrestler scored a two count pin, their opponent would have to pick a random cream puff and eat it. If it was filled with wasabi (and everyone would be able to tell based on their reaction), the wrestler would lose the match. Several pinfalls reduced the cream puffs down to only a couple left. Honda and Sayaka ended up trapping each other in a Double Backslide Pin so both had to eat a cream puff. They both picked one each and took their bites. Honda immediately ran away in a panic while Sayaka fell to her knees in despair. They both ate wasabi cream puffs so the match ended in a draw!

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 31: SUSPENDED ANIMATION” Results

June 30, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 31: SUSPENDED ANIMATION”, 30/06/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Miles Karu with the Octopus Hold (12:46).
2. Kota Sekifuda defeated Antonio Honda with the Super Man (13:24).
3. Square Kong & Princess Ram defeated Dark King Ueki & Munek when Kong pinned Munek with the Made In Gorilla (10:18).
4. BK-G Openweight Title: Mr. Bueno (c) (w/ Mr. Malo) defeated Toru Owashi with La Magistral Cradle (17:10).
*V3 for Mr. Bueno.

Was the main event really a BK-G Openweight Title or an infomercial for Toru Owashi’s food? Midway through the match Owashi pulled out a box filled with jars of his homemade miso. He attacked Mr. Bueno with some of the jars until he spotted Mr. Malo stealing from the box. He then tried to Choke Slam Bueno onto a pile of jars but Malo grabbed all of them to put back into the box. Malo continued to help out his brother until Owashi bribed him with jars of miso. Malo agreed and handed his black mask over to Owashi to wear as they ganged up on the champion. Bueno was able to snap his brother out of betraying him and the match returned to being one on one. Bueno and Owashi got into a chop battle. Owashi got the upper hand and went to do La Magistral Cradle but Bueno reversed it and used the same move to pin Owashi intead.

After the match Bueno started complaining to Chris Brookes because he never knew he was supposed to defend the BK-G Title today. He thinks being the champion means he should be let in on these kind of surprises. Brookes disagreed, telling him it is supposed be a surprise all the time. However since Baka Gaijin + Friends will be holding their first show in Nagoya on 19th July he will reveal the main event of that show right now. It will be Mr. Bueno & Mr. Malo against Brookes & Yuta Oya!

Trouble is brewing inside Ueki’s Magic Kingdom so the unit is on the lookout for new members. Dark King Ueki asked Antonio Honda and Kota Sekifuda to join but they both turned him down so they were kidnapped and kept inside Munek’s magic prison. However Square Kong suddenly got tired of Ueki bossing him around and didn’t want to take is orders anymore. Long then got mad when Sekifuda noticed the bananas Ueki was giving him were unripe. Princess Ram then aired her own grievances towards Ueki because the coffee he bought for her today is from McDonalds instead of Starbucks. The Kingdom was now having a civil war with Ueki & Munek fighting Kong & Ram! Kong attacked the other team with a barrell while Munek used his magic to slow down Ram. Kong then ate his unriped banana to power up and trick Ueki into rubbing Munek into his hairy chest. Ram blinded Munek with powder and Kong then pinned him with the Made In Gorilla. After the match Kong grabbed Munek’s wand to cast a spell on Ueki but Munek used a mirror to deflect it back at him and Ram. Thw two of them are now back under Ueki’s control and the Magic Kingdom are all on the same page again.

Sekifuda pulled out a sack containing something that would counter Honda’s Gongitsune. He reached in deep inside to pull out his own arm shaped like a gecko… that’s right it’s Gon The Gecko! It bit Honda’s arm to render Gongitsune useless but Honda then raised his other hand to form Gongitsune’s uncle seeking revenge for his nephew’s untimely end. The match then devolved into Bionic Elbow wind up spots until Sekifuda used a Superman Dive to pin Honda.

Miles Karu wanted to start off his Baka Gaijin debut on the right foot so he entered the room singing his own version of “Ice Ice Baby”. It got the fans chanting “Miles Miles Baby” at him while Brookes was waiting for him to wrap it up. During the match they fought over to the window where they both tried to throw each other out of it but they returned back to the mat. Karu pulled out a melodica and started playing “My Heart Will Go On” to confuse Brookes into letting go of a submission hold and get Daisuke Kiso to do the Titanic pose on a stool. Karu spoiled the moment by rolling up Brookes for a nearfall, causing Kiso to scramble back to reality. Brookes stuck the melodica pipe into Karu’s mouth and kept chopping him in the chest. He then did a Pulling Piledriver but when Karu kicked out of the pin, Brookes twisted him into an Octopus Hold and made him give up.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2026 ~NEXT DOOR~ IN NAGOYA” Results

June 21, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2026 ~NEXT DOOR~ IN NAGOYA”, 21/06/2026
Aichi Chunichi Hall
444 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Toga & Chika Nanase when Kazashiro pinned Nanase with the Fisherman Suplex (10:13).
2. 3 Way Match: Sakura Hattori defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Hattori pinned Harajuku and Kiryu with a Simultaneous School Boy (8:00).
3. Mizuki & Uta Takami defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Diving Foot Stomp (9:36).
4. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer when Suzume pinned Summer with the Ring A Bell (11:03).
5. Hyper Misao defeated Miu Watanabe with a School Boy (4:52).
6. Rika Tatsumi Vs Shoko Nakajima ended in a Time Limit Draw (15:00).
7. Yuki Arai & Ren Konatsu defeated Miyu Yamashita & Shion Kanzaki when Konatsu pinned Kanzaki with the Aries Comet (14:32).

Ren Konatsu has entered her second year as a pro wrestler by returning to the venue of her debut and winning in the main event for the first time! She got to beat her junior Shion Kanzaki with the Aries Comet while Yuki Arai used a Full Nelson Buster to make sure Miyu Yamashita was out of the way. Konatsu said she wants to team up with Arai a lot more as well as also have matches against her. The way Arai praised Konatsu after the match makes Konatsu think she has now gone from Arai’s fan into Arai’s angel. As for the upcoming title match, Arai thinks today was an important warmup because she got to show Yamashita her true potential. She wants to master the Scorpion Death Lock and is thinking carefully of different ways to put Yamashita in it in every match they will be in together.

The two Daydream Vs Kyoraku Kyomei singles matches couldn’t have turned out any differently. Rika Tatsumi and Shoko Nakajima fought each other to a 15 minute stalemate where Tatsumi’s tactical wrestling clashed with Nakajima’s speedy style. The other match devolved into chaos pretty quickly. Hyper Misao tried to leave when she realized it was meant to be a preliminary bout for the Princess Tag Team Titles match that her team still denies is going to happen. However she was already locked in the room and had to wrestle the match. Miu Watanabe wrapped Misao up in the ring apron and gave her the Giant Swing on the floor. Misao blinded Watanabe with the Hero Spray and started detaching the turnbuckle posts to use as weapons. Watanabe ended up charging right into an exposed buckle and was rolled back into a School Boy to get pinned by Misao. Kyoraku Kyomei still hold the contract for the title match and Nakajima pointed out that if she cannot beat Tatsumi one on one then she clearly isn’t ready to fight for the tag titles right now. On the other side, Tatsumi cannot believe that Watanabe lost her match so she ordered her to go train at a gym by herself without using her Hot Pepper app points to make the reservation. Tatsumi doesn’t need to join the training because a draw is not a loss. She also doesn’t believe Nakajima when she says now is not the right time to do the title match.

While Japan was beating Tunisia 4-0 in the World Cup, Mahiro Kiryu brought along a gigantic football so she could play the sport with her opponents in the 3 Way Match. She also had red and yellow cards prepared for Daisuke Kiso to use if anyone committed a foul (that blew up in her face when Kiso booked her for being too aggressive towards him). Pom Harajuku wasn’t interested in playing and Sakura Hattori threw the ball away but both of them were eventually drawn into Kiryu’s game. Harajuku threw the ball around which made Kiryu stop the match so she could show her how to play properly. The two then tried to kick the ball into the red corner goal but Hattori used her ninja skills to save almost every shot. She finally let one in by accidentally leaving an open goal but then remembered they were in a wrestling match so she rolled both opponents over with a Double School Boy for the win. At least Kiryu and Harajuku got more shots on goal than Tunisia did.

One year ago a rivalry between Super Sasadango Machine and Toru Yano brought DDT and New Japan together, mending a decade long broken relationship in the process. The event was such a success that both parties agreed to do it again, this time under more friendlier circumstances. With a hot summer of sport about to begin, an agreement was made by both sides to provide the best sportsmanship and keep things fair throughout the day. But as the show hit its stride, the trust between DDT and NJPW would be taken advantage of by some for the sake of getting the competitive advantage.

For an inter-promotional show such as this it was necessary that everything would be presented 50/50. It aired as a PPV on both NJPW World and Wrestle Universe with each streaming service providing their own full scale broadcast on separate screens side-by-side. That meant separate commentary teams with their own special guests, separate ring announcers, alternating referees, etc. Korakuen Hall even tried to split itself in half with the green DDT side having a security fence installed while the red NJPW side was barrier free. The NJPW World commentators were Yohei Onishi, Milano Collection A.T. and special guest Hiroshi Tanahashi. The Wrestle Universe commentators were Haruo Murata, Ken Suzuki.txt and special guest Yuki Ueno. Murata wants to be neutral because he works with both companies but his interactions with Daisuke Sasaki during the Best Of The Super Jr. meant he was DDT through and through no matter what he says.

A signing ceremony was planned to take place but first Yano had an announcement to make regarding his team. Tomoaki Honma was unable to appear at the show today because of illness so a substitute was called in at the last minute. His replacement is KUSHIDA! With that news out of the way, Sasadango and Yano signed the contract and started to hype up the fans to chant for their favorite side.

The chants turned into a cheering contest with Yano ordering Tatsuya Matsumoto to encourage even louder chants for New Japan. Hinata Kasai tried to do the same with the DDT fans, leading the two young wrestlers to get in each other’s way and then begin arguing. The arguing turned into a staredown and the staredown was going to turn into a fight!

All of a sudden a three minute long wrestling exhibition broke out between Matsumoto and Kasai. The two fought back and forth until the time expired but both kept trying to fight so they were allowed another five minutes to settle their differences. Kasai locked in an STF but Matsumoto broke free and got a nearfall with a Body Slam. As the match hit the 3 minute mark, Matsumoto put Kasai in a Crab Hold and got him to give up.

Everything was now calm again after that fired up display so it was time for the show to begin proper. DDT and New Japan would face each other in a gauntlet of singles matches with mystery lineups made out of five participants on each team. However a match could be turned into a tag team bout if both sides agree to the change beforehand. Sasadango and Yano together gave an oath promising to uphold good sportsmanship in every match… but it was all a trick! A video played on the two screens showing an unmasked Sasadango dressed up as the famous fortune teller Kazuko Hosoki. Here, “Kazuko Sasaki” informed Yano that DDT had just invited NJPW into taking part in a special tour… The DDT Hell Tour!

Sasadango admits he was foolish to think his team could beat New Japan in five regular pro wrestling matches so he hatched a plan. The DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi then showed Yano the contract he signed included an extra sentence written in English that was not included in the Japanese print. “All match rules must be accepted as decided by DDT.” Yano was tricked into letting DDT decide the rules for every match tonight!

DDT used the surprise to their immediate advantage by making the first match an IPPON Lighttube Tag Death Match! In this match there is only one lighttube and the loser is the person whose body breaks it. DDT sent the master of the match Akito out there to team with MAO while NJPW were represented by KUSHIDA & El Desperado. The sudden rule change made things more dangerous for KUSHIDA because lately he likes to wrestle barefoot. Akito made fun of that by shoving a sock into KUSHIDA’s mouth near the end of the match. However as everyone fought over the lighttube or tried to avoid touching it, MAO and Desperado formed their own alliance because of their friendship and agreed to break the lighttube together. They both climbed up the same turnbuckle, counted down together and… only Desperado went ahead with the trust fall. He smashed landed on the lighttube while MAO remained on the turnbuckles to celebrate winning the match. Desperado was so furious over the betrayal he abducted Viento Maligno at ringside and threatened to harm him with the remains of the broken lighttube unless MAO apologizes.

Akito & MAO remained in the ring to take part in the second match. This one showed everybody how DDT’s plan could backfire on them in a spectacular manner. It was a Blindfold Butt-Finding Hell Match where every wrestler had to fight blindfolded in their underwear and the first one to have their backside exposed would lose. NJPW sent out the two wrestlers that were guaranteed to thrive under such a ruleset, YOH & Ryusuke Taguchi! Both men walked out wearing an extra pair of underwear over their heads along with slingkinis and stockings. Keep in mind this show is taking place exactly one day after YOH won BOSJ! The blindness led to Akito & MAO almost fighting each other until they recognized each other by their body shape. The two of them as well as YOH all ended up wandering outside the ring while back inside Taguchi was trying to do Hip Attacks into thin air. When everyone got back into the ring MAO slid up from underneath Taguchi only to bump into YOH and accidentally Lip Lock him. The four wrestlers then formed a chain by all reaching out to the person in front of them to grab their tights. The NJPW team won the duel and exposed the DDT wrestlers’ butts to win the match. According to MAO, the lesson he learned from this match is everybody from Miyagi is weird. YOH proved it later by telling reporters backstage that the experience he went through today feels so good.

Match #3 had DDT send out reinforcements in the form of Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata because the only way to win the match was to make your opponents give up. The DDT team jumped YOH & Taguchi but the NJPW duo would taunt them on the microphone whenever they were asked to give up. Honda told Hirata to put them in the Paradise Lock but Hirata confessed he does not know how to do the move. Honda went outside to bring Milano Collection A.T. into the ring so they could learn it from him. But Honda tripped over the ropes on the way back in. He had injured himself and decided it was time to give up but first he needed to tell his latest Gongitsune joke. It turned into an attack that led to everyone brawling. As the dust settled, only Milano was left standing. He noticed a pair of Hirata GO! glasses had fallen onto the canvas so he put them on and “Tokyo GO!” began to play. He tried to ignore it until he couldn’t help but dance to the music belonging to an old foe. As this was happening, Honda and Taguchi were doing Gongitsune attacks and they both wound up pinching Milano by the nipples. Milano’s response was to put the both of them in Paradise Locks and then continue dancing on top of them. Both Honda and Taguchi gave up at the same time, causing the match to end in a tie.

The series was reaching its halfway point so Sasadango decided now was a good time to do a PowerPoint Presentation… From Hell! He explained to the audience that the ideal way of doing inter-promotional matches is to help develop the next generation. His presentation was suddenly interrupted when his laptop decided to reset itself for updates. While the fans started chanting for the laptop to restart, Sasadango handed his microphone to Hiroshi Tanahashi and asked him to talk for a bit. Tanahashi spoke about the repaired relationship between New Japan and DDT, entirely crediting himself for making it happen. Sasadango then gave up on the laptop and tried to continue his presentation without PowerPoint. He and Yano then broke out into an argument until they noticed Rukiya and Tatsuya Matsumoto both laughing at them nearby. Sasadango and Yano agreed they need to set a good example to their juniors or they would lose their respect. So for the next match the wrestlers involved would lose if their junior laughs at them!

Sasadango would step into the ring to finally be part of the action but his opponent was Hirooki Goto! Rukiya and Matsumoto were made to sit down near the ring with instructions to fill their mouths with water. Every time one of them laughed and spat the water out, their respective wrestler would lose a point. The first to lose three points would lose the match. Both of them laughed at the same time when Goto accidentally unmasked Sasadango during a Headlock off of the ropes. Rukiya then laughed a second time when Sasadango took a Lariat, apologized to Goto and then retreated from the ring. When Sasadango returned, he all of a sudden looked like a completely different person with a ripped physique. Goto was able to unmask him, revealing it was KANON under the mask. That made Matsumoto laugh. The real Sasadango returned to launch a sneak attack on Goto but that failed. He then challenged Goto to a sumo match and encouraged the fans to chant “Edmond” at Goto (because he plays E. Honda in the upcoming Street Fighter movie). Sasadango tricked Goto into taking a Dropkick but Goto got back up and grabbed his opponent. Just when Goto was in position to do the GTR, Sasadango instantly gave up so he wouldn’t take the move. Rukiya laughed at this, taking away Sasadango’s last point. Goto gave him th GTR anyway and pinned him for the three count so he ended up having three different ways to claim victory for the match.

Sasadango was beaten but DDT was not. He still had one more card to play. For many weeks leading up to this show, Sasadango has been trying to recruit one wrestler more than any other but his advances were rejected every time. Well it turns out this person finally agreed to show up because Danshoku Dieno made a big entrance to have a match with Goto! It didn’t take long for the match to get out of hand because the referees Yumehito Imanari, Marty Asami and Daisuke Kiso were all knocked out with Lip Locks that were intended for Goto. Akito ran into the ring to help put Dieno into the Hell Gate position over the top turnbuckle. Chaos then broke out with many wrestlers from both teams all running down to the ring to fight each other and then get their heads shoved into Dieno’s backside. Everything was so out of control that the match had to be called off.

By this point the DDT had run out of all of their players while the NJPW team still had only Toru Yano remaining. Yano thought this meant the series was over and his team had won without him even having to do anything. However Sasadango had one more trick up his sleeve. As much as he works hard for DDT, he does not have a contract with them and in fact wrestles as a freelancer. He is not really a DDT wrestler so that means the result of his match against Goto does not count towards the contest! Yano was furious over the revelation and demanded whoever is in charge of DDT to come out and face him. Sanshiro Takagi did just that and introduced himself to Yano as the supreme commander of DDT. For one more twist of the knife, Takagi and Yano would now face off in a Weapon Rumble!

The rules are a new weapon would be brought down to the ring Royal Rumble style and each weapon was decided upon by either DDT or New Japan. Yano complained that his team didn’t prepare any weapons but Sasadango revealed that he surveyed YOH about it beforehand and was able to get the weapons he suggested. The weapons included a blonde wig, a fire extinguisher, a “Yano Set” of a chair and sake, Mecha Mummy armed with the Mecha Drill, Daisuke Sasaki drinking tequila and El Desperado drinking tequila. The big surprise of all came when Takagi brought out his greatest weapon, Konosuke Takeshita! He had travelled to Japan just to be at this show and he attacked Yano on Takagi’s behalf. But just as Takeshita was about to give Yano the Raging Fire, the countdown for Yano’s next weapon fell to zero and it was revealed to be… Konosuke Takeshita?!? He played along with the rules and switched to attacking Takagi until Takagi started protesting. He said Takeshita belongs to DDT while Yano argued he also belongs to New Japan. Sasadango then stepped into the ring with Tanahashi as everyone agreed this was an issue that needed to be sorted out immediately.

Sasadango pointed out to Takeshita that this is the drawback to having contracts with three different wrestling companies. Two of them are here today so he needed to make a choice between them. Takagi spoke about Takeshita contacting him at 15 years old asking to become a pro wrestler because he was so confident he could reach to the top. Takagi always believes Takeshita will come back to DDT even when he is winning championships in AEW and New Japan. Tanahashi reminded Takeshita of the singles match they had in Sumo Hall back in 2014. He could feel Takeshita’s potential all the way back then and he still has high expectations for him going forward.

Sasadango handed Takeshita a “Final Rose” for him to give to the person he wants to be with (exactly like what Yuma Anzai experienced in Japan’s version of The Bachelorette recently). Takeshita said when he watched NJPW as a kid it gave him dreams and DDT made those dreams come true. He belongs to both companies solely out of gratitude with a desire to repay their kindness. He told Tanahashi he will do his best to protect NJPW from now on. He also made a promise to Takagi he will work hard to help him bring DDT to the Tokyo Dome!

Takeshita was about to hand the Final Rose to both Tanahashi and Takagi when Yano angrily cut him off. Yano complained he cannot choose both and Sasadango agreed that nobody would be satisfied with this ending. Sasadango then said if DDT carelessly goes into the Tokyo Dome and fails miserably then DDT will be finished and everyone will be left out on the streets! All of a sudden Yano & Sasadango now wanted to fight Takeshita in a Handicap match. It didn’t take long for Takeshita to dispatch both of them before pinning Sasadango with the Raging Fire.

After the impromptu match, Takeshita felt it was time he explained himself. He couldn’t find the way to properly convey his feelings up to this point so he got Muscle Sakai to help him out by creating a PowerPoint Presentation for him. It is titled “Why I Belong To Three Pro Wrestling Organizations” He introduced himself as a 31 year old wrestler currently living in Orlando with two special skills: working out and pro wrestling. He won the KO-D Openweight Title in DDT at a young age and still holds the record for most title defences. In New Japan he won the G1 Climax and then held the IWGP World Heavyweight Title. Recently in AEW he defeated Kazuchika Okada (the crowd popped at the mention of this) to become the new AEW International Champion. He is confident he is one of the busiest wrestlers in the world.

He gets all sorts of requests from the companies he works for. NJPW wants him on more domestic tours, DDT wants him to bring them to the Tokyo Dome and AEW doesn’t want any other company taking him away from them. The reason he is signed to all three companies is a simple one. He wants to share his world of pro wrestling to more people. He felt left out when he was not a part of last year’s DDT Vs New Japan show and it is one of his biggest regrets because he belongs to both companies. An all star show like this is supposed to be the most entertaining showdown but there are many ways for people to entertain themselves these days. Takeshita has other hobbies to keep himself occupied but pro wrestling will always be the most interesting.

So Takeshita has come up with three ideas that will prove his point. The first idea is he wants to hold the world’s largest pro wrestling league consisting of 365 wrestlers all fighting each other in a gigantic year long round robin tournament! He watches so much wrestling in his off time that he is subscribed to all of the different streaming services. That means he’s been able to carefully select a list of 365 wrestlers from all over the world he wants to compete and has also created a tentative schedule of matches to be held across Japan so there will be tournament events every single day from the opening bouts on 1st January all the way to the final night on 31st December! He understands the schedule might be difficult to pull off which is why he thinks the league should only be held once every four years likes the Olympics.

Takeshita’s second idea is to revise pro wrestling’s rules so they are more in line to modern times. He recognizes that violence doesn’t solve anything and disputes can be resolved through discussion. A suggestion he has is to introduce AI judging and a scoring system based on technical points, artistic points, and compositional skills. His example of a scoring system that works is the annual M-1 Grand Prix comedy show that is always a huge hit at the end of the year. His third idea is to ultimately unify the world of pro wrestling. Today the polar opposites that are New Japan and DDT fought each other in exciting ways because of their completely different styles. If doing this with two companies is exciting then imagine adding countless more into the mix. In order to achieve that goal, Takeshita believes he must first become the world’s No. 1 pro wrestler! He asked for everyone’s support so they can all create the perfect world where pro wrestling is the best.

The presentation touched the hearts of everyone who listened… Well, almost everyone. Takagi was still in a fired up competitive mood and wasn’t going to stand there letting the action go to waste. He tried to rally the other wrestlers around him but everyone went over to the other side of the ring and all stared him down. It was time for the final match where Takagi had to fight everyone else all by himself! He got pummeled by everyone one after the other until Takeshita finished him off with a Stunner.

The show was now reaching its end and a few wrestlers wanted to give their final words. Sasadango asked all of the NJPW fans watching to continue supporting Takeshita. That request goes to the wrestlers in Hontai too. Yano announced that Takeshita was the winner of today’s series and Takagi told him to liven up the wrestling world even more. Tanahashi then led everyone to say the same catchphrase that was used to end last year’s show: “3, 2, 1, Love Muscle! Muscle!”

Wait, wait, wait, hang on. There’s one more thing. After everyone left the ring, Sasadango and Akito both suddenly remembered something and ran out of the room. They rushed through a hallway to find a closed out locker room featuring the final secret weapon that they completely forgot to use during the show. They opened up the door and there inside was the furious NOAH wrestler Kenoh! He demanded to know where Toru Yano was while Sasadango & Akito both desperately apologized to him. It turns out that even though DDT is the last place Kenoh ever wants to be, he has been trying to pick a fight with Yano for ages and agreed to be part of Sasadango’s plan if it meant he could finally get his hands on Yano. That didn’t happen so Kenoh stormed out of Korakuen Hall and went down to the NJPW store in near Suidobashi in search of Yano. The shop was closed and Yano was nowhere to be found so Kenoh decided to start a livestream on his YouTube channel and complain about the whole thing.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 30: NEW MOON ON MONDAY” Results

May 20, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 30: NEW MOON ON MONDAY”, 19/05/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans

1. Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Chie Koishikawa defeated Dark King Ueki, Munek & Princess Seki when Koishikawa pinned Ueki with a School Boy (17:40).
2. Special Single Match: The Great American Indie Wrestler defeated Anarko Montaña with the Package Piledriver through a Plastic Case (11:50).
3. BK-G Openweight Title: Mr. Bueno (c) defeated Baliyan Akki with the Backslide From California (17:04).
*V2 for Mr. Bueno.
4. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki defeated Mr. Malo with the Bar-Pulled Manjigatame (11:51).

The weirdness of Baka Gaijin + Friends is an atmosphere that Baliyan Akki is quick to adapt to but this is still Mr. Bueno’s house. With his brother Mr. Malo by his side, Bueno was able to survive a potential arm injury to defend the BK-G Openweight Title. Bueno and Malo held Akki in an Arm Wringer and convinced the audience to link up a daisy chain by holding hands together. The Arm Wringer charged through the audience until it rebounded, leading to Akki popping out Bueno’s shoulder. However Bueno popped it back in and tagged Malo to fight for him. Malo threw his poncho over Daisuke Kiso’s head so the referee couldn’t see him give Akki the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Bueno tagged back in and did his own version of the I Am The Apex Elbow Drop. Akki fought against the numbers game and brought a more serious edge to the title match but couldn’t find a way to win. He ended up duelling for a Gory Special position that was instead countered by Bueno into a Backslide Pin to win the match.

Bueno made a demand to Chris Brookes afterwards for Mr. Malo to have a match to close out the show. Brookes told him that all of the wrestlers here had competed already but Bueno revealed he invited his own friend to show up and wrestle Malo. This person is not a “Baka Gaijin” though. He is the “Baka Survivor” Shinya Aoki! He used the tight confines of ARENA Shimokitazawa to keep the fight to mostly grappling holds and chain moves. He then used the scenary to his advantage, putting Malo in a Standing Octopus Hold and reaching up to grab a bar from the ceiling to apply even more pressure until Malo submitted to him.

Anarko Montaña’s original opponent for the show MAO was nowhere to be seen. Instead when it was time for MAO’s entrance, “Walk” by Pantera played and a person known as The Great American Indie Wrestler appeared chanting “Five Star” at everybody. He tried to hype up the crowd by swearing in English over and over until Montaña got the jump on him during a handshake. Wrestler brought out a Singapore Cane to turn the match hardcore but he missed Montaña and hit himself with the stick by mistake. He got his second wind when fans started chanting “Fight Forever” and pulled out a bag filled with another foreign object. He was just as confused as everyone else when he pulled out a carrot from the bag but made up for it by finding a bundle of skewers to dig into the top of Montaña’s head. Montaña brought out a plastic box to try and fight back but was made to regret it when Wrestler crashed him through the box with the Package Piledriver to win the match.

The show started with Ueki’s Magic Kingdom bringing along some surprises for their opponents. First, Munek is completely healed from his neck injury and is able to fight again. However Ram Kaichow isn’t in Japan right now so Dark King Ueki used his magic vase to transfer her captured soul into another body for the time being. That body belongs to Kota Sekifuda so he has now temporarily become Princess Seki! The Kingdom went and captured a member of the audience to hold them hostage while Brookes’s team all fought to rescue her. The Kingdom also grabbed another fan and shoved his face into Ueki’s hairy chest. Things went out of control when Munek used magic on Antonio Honda’s Gongitsune attack, leading to almost everyone being magically forced to Gongitsune pinch their own nipples. Chie Koishikawa ran into the middle of this to stop everyone but they all ganged up on her instead. However she ducked the group Bionic Elbow so they all hit each other and she rolled up Ueki to get the three count.

DDT “O HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2026 ~BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING BEGINS AGAIN THIS YEAR~” Results

April 9, 2026

DDT “O HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2026 ~BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING BEGINS AGAIN THIS YEAR~”, 09/04/2026
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. Daichi Sato, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Yuki Ishida defeated Jun Akiyama, Masami Inahata & Hinata Kasai when Ishida pinned Kasai with the Ensho (7:19).
2. DAMNATION T.A Vs STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION!: Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (w/ MJ Paul) defeated Yukio Naya & Viento Maligno when Ilusion pinned Maligno with the Swanton Bomb (9:02).
3. Junta Miyawaki’s First Beer Garden Pro Wrestling ~ Only Miyawaki Drunk Death Match: Junta Miyawaki defeated MAO (w/ KIMIHIRO), Antonio Honda and To-y when Miyawaki pinned Honda after a Bionic Elbow from MAO (11:44).
4. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with a Crucifix Pin (9:43).
5. KING OF DRUNK 2026 Opening Round: Chris Brookes Vs HARASHIMA Vs Kazuma Sumi Vs KANON Vs Yuki Iino Vs Rukiya ended in a No Contest (19:32).
6. Special Tag Match ~ Yuni University Entrance Commemorative Match: Shunma Katsumata & Yuni defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Yuni pinned Hirata with an Inside Cradle (13:41).

It’s time for Yuni to be treated like a grown up now he’s in college. He was warned in the main event that Danshoku Dieno would be merciless against him. Shunma Katsumata promised to protect Yuni but Dieno immediately gave Katsumata the Lip Lock and Danshoku Driver to kick off the match. Yuni had to fight Dieno & Kazuki Hirata on his own. Katsumata recovered but then had “Danshoku Water” sprayed over him, making him suddenly target Yuni because he’s so cute! Many DDT wrestlers ran in to make the save only to also get sprayed with the water, making them all obsess over Yuni too. Even Hisaya Imabayashi got sprayed but Yuni took care of him with a Buzzsaw Kick. Hirata opened the spray and poured it into Yuni’s mouth but Yuni passed it back by giving Hirata the Lip Lock. That made Hirata turn full Danshoku and he even put on the Danshoku costume. He tried to give Yuni the Danshoku Driver but it was countered into a Small Package to give Yuni the win. Yuni still had some residue left in his mouth and accidentally swallowed it after the match. It made him obsess over Daisuke Kiso and he chased the ref out of the ring. Katsumata closed out the show and Yuni came back to chase after him too. Yuni claims he doesn’t remember anything that happened after the match ended.

This year’s Beer Garden show began with a more business like presentation with everyone wearing employee suits for the King Of Drunk match. That just meant when it was time to start drinking, all of the wrestlers decided to really get loose. Yuki Iino got so drunk he stripped down to his underwear, causing Rukiya to complain that everyone was getting too rowdy. The problem was he was so drunk he almost threw up and had to go find a restroom. One by one a wrestler would either get eliminated by pinfall or just drop out of the match entirely because they were too drunk. By the end of the match nobody was left in a good state so it had to be called off without a winner decided.

The tag team of Nautilus hasn’t been around together since October 2020. Yuki Ueno talked to Naomi Yoshimura about the nostalgia he felt when he heard their theme song again. He also thinks today’s reunion will help Yoshimura move forward again. Yoshimura said a lot has changed over the last year going back to his return from injury. He’ll do his best to keep improving.

Junta Miyawaki was so excited to take part in his first Beer Garden show. He wanted the 4 Way Match to have drinking rules so everyone could get drunk. However the other participants were all responsible and declined for various reasons, such as needing to drive a vehicle after the show. The 4 Way instead had a rule where only Miyawaki was allowed to drink whenever music interrupted the match. He got so drunk that he only won the match by accident, tripping himself on top of a knocked out Antonio Honda for the pinfall while MAO and To-y were too busy fighting each other to stop it.

There was a contract signing for the DDT Extreme Title match held before any of the matches began. During it Hideki Okatani revealed he will defend the title against Yukio Naya in a Hardcore Table Crash Death Match! It is a Hardcore match that can be won by pinfall, submission or putting your opponent through a table. The two fought in a tag match later in the show where Okatani attacked Naya with his bamboo stick while Ilusion gave Viento Maligno his first pinfall loss. Naya got some payback afterwards by Choke Slamming Okatani through a table set up at ringside. Ilusion got on the microphone next to his prone stablemate anyway and said Okatani will beat Naya on 15th April!

The pre-show press conference also had Ueno and Iino talk about their KO-D Openweight Title match. Iino explained that he is living his life to the fullest every day because he is in the prime of his life right now. Even when he is sitting down he will speak and shout with all of his might. Ueno said he himself has lived in the present more than anyone else for the last six months and he is certain Iino will burn to his fullest at Korakuen Hall on 15th April.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 29: TONIC IMMOBILITY” Results

April 7, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 29: TONIC IMMOBILITY”, 07/04/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Chris Brookes & Chie Koishikawa defeated “Princess Ram” (Dark King Ueki) & “Munek” (Princess Ram) (w/ “Dark King Ueki” (Munek)) when Koishikawa submitted Ram with an Octopus Hold (12:48).
2. Noise Prevention Silence Death Match: Baliyan Akki defeated Mr. Malo when Malo sneezed (9:01).
3. Yuya Aoki & Daisuke Sekimoto defeated Yuya MAOki & Daisuke Sekifuda when Sekimoto pinned Sekifuda with a Lariat (13:20).
4. BK-G Openweight Title: Mr. Bueno (c) defeated Antonio Honda with a Backslide Pin (19:40).
*V1 for Mr. Bueno.

It was back to business as usual for Baka Gaijin + Friends after playing hosts to Mystery Wrestling last month. Although for this show we had a championship challenge laid out in advance. Antonio Honda had confronted Mr. Bueno in the outside world a couple of weeks ago to ask for a shot at the BK-G Openweight Title. When the going got tough for Bueno, he “tagged in” Mr. Malo to help him fight Honda. Malo got away with it by throwing his poncho over Daisuke Kiso’s head so he wouldn’t see anything. Honda then injured his knee but as he tried to tell his Gongitsune joke, Bueno showed good sportsmanship by wrapping tape around the injured knee. He then realized Honda’s injury was something he could target so he focused his attacks there. Honda fought back by choking Bueno with the tape and then using it to tie them together like it was a strap match. It backfired when he ended up tangling his hands together while doing the Bionic Elbow. Bueno blocked the Gongitsune joke because he doesn’t understand Japanese and he ended up countering another Bionic Elbow into a Backslide Pin to win the match. After the match Baliyan Akki walked out and challenged Bueno for the title at the next show on 19th May.

It turns out that Baka Gaijin has its own Strong BK division of wrestlers. MAO & Kota Sekifuda entered the room pretending to be the Big Japan pair of Yuya Aoki and Daisuke Sekimoto. Then the real Aoki and Sekimoto entered the room looking bemused at the appearance of their doppelgangers. For an added BJW bonus, Takayuki Ueki briefly joined Mr. HAKU on commentary to impersonate Hirotsugu Suyama. The real Strong BJ wrestlers showed the pretenders what they are all about but their opponents found spots to copy those movements back at them. What they couldn’t replicate was Sekimoto’s strength. He grabbed Aoki and Sekifuda together to give them a Double German Suplex before Lariating Sekifuda down to the mat for the three count.

Today was Akki’s first time meeting Mr. Malo but there was a communication issue because Malo never speaks. Akki took it upon himself to make Malo speak by force by challenging him to a Noise Prevention Silence Death Match! I either wrestler made a loud sound they would lose so both of them were very careful with how they fought each other. The action was slow and methodical in more ways than one until Kiso was knocked aside. Akki screamed at Malo while Kiso was distracted but Malo fought back by taking out his black mask an wrapping it over Akki’s face. Malo then grabbed a flower and brushed it under Akki’s nose expecting him to sneeze but nothing happened. Instead Akki grabbed the flower a few minutes later and did the same to Malo to get the intended result!

Something felt a bit off about Ueki’s Magic Kingdom in the opening match. Their opponents Chris Brookes & Chie Koishikawa had to ignore the unusual atmosphere to fight their enemies and win the match. “Munek” used a bubble wand to summon walls to throw Brookes into but still had a neck injury to worry about. Brookes & Koishikawa weren’t afraid to target that neck injury when necessary. “Princess Ram” was more focused towards acting cute than usual while “Dark King Ueki” stood on the sidelines instructing his minions. The Magic Kingdom brought out a chained swing to attach from the ceiling but Brookes ended up trapping “Munek” on it in midair, becoming completely unable to save “Ram” from giving up to Koishikawa’s Octopus Hold. Brookes at least had the right idea to lift “Munek” back down after the match.

11. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) defeated KANON with the WR (25:12).
*V6 for Yuki Ueno.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Antonio Honda defeated Glasses (c) by Destruction (18:47).
*Antonio Honda becomes the 1,813rd champion.

The 29th Anniversary of DDT was also the first attempt by KANON to try and win the KO-D Openweight Title. For the weeks leading up to this match, KANON had been winning matches with the Lariat so Yuki Ueno tried to weaken it by hitting KANON’s hand off the corner post early on. KANON would still use the Lariat as an equalizer but then tried using his other moves to win. The Cobra Twist, Sleepy Hollow and LONELY DEZIRES wouldn’t work so he went back to the Lariat. However Ueno’s well time Dropkick to the face helped him to set up the Blackout Sleeper to squeeze the life out of KANON. While he was eventually able to get out of it, KANON was then given the WR to put him down and out.

Ueno told KANON after the match that he’s been thinking about him a lot. He thinks KANON is strong, handsome, kind and also weird. If he wants to make it to the top of DDT he cannot stay the way he is now. KANON needs to show more. Still, Ueno had fun and reminded KANON he’s been part of the DDT family even going back to when he was part of DAMNATION T.A. When he was done, Yuki Iino got into the ring feeling moved by Ueno’s speech. Iino asked for a title match because Ueno was his senior who taught him everything about pro wrestling back when Iino was a trainee. Ueno was also Iino’s first ever opponent. Ueno said he would accept the challenge on the condition that Iino would not immediately attack him after they shake hands. Iino agreed and they shook hands without incident. Ueno then told the fans he will carry the hopes of everybody as DDT moves into its 30th year.

After several failed attempts, Kazuma Sumi solved the puzzle and got to pin Daisuke Sasaki with the School Boy to win the DDT Universal Title! Sasaki targeted his leg from the get-go, including attacking the limb with a chair. A ref bump also led to the other members of DAMNATION T.A interfering on Sasaki’s behalf. Sumi fought against the odds but almost paid big by missing the Reverse 450 Splash. His luck then turned around when DAMNATION T.A interfered again only to backfire on Sasaki when Ilusion accidentally hit him with the chair. From there Sumi tried to pin Sasaki with the School Boy several times. Sasaki caught him in the Crossface Lock only for Sumi to counter it into another School Boy, this time pinning Sasaki down for the three count! Sasaki complained backstage that his “visa” for travelling the world was now taken from him and he’s trying to figure out does this mean he is being banished from the country? He only remembers being hit by a chair so that means Sumi cheated to win! Sasaki will accept his fate for now. He will go abroad, fall in love, get dumped and then come back home.

When Sumi celebrated with the title he said he is so glad he never gave up. He was able to keep going because of everyone’s support. He was then asked to nominated his first challenger for a title defence in Fukuoka on 18th April. Sumi chose Shunma Katsumata because he wants to repay him for all of his kindness ever since he debuted. However Sumi’s way of repaying Katsumata is to surpass him so he is not taking him lightly by putting this title match together. Katsumata agreed to the match and said he is going to treat Sumi as his equal. His way of repaying Sumi will be to crush him and win the Universal Title!

Kazuki Hirata was given the biggest entrance possible by having John Robinson sing him down to the ring with a live performance of “TOKYO GO!” Then after all of that hype, Konosuke Takeshita pinned Hirata in seconds after a Big Boot. A rematch immediately took place but Takeshita won again this time with an Elbow Butt that knocked Hirata out. Hirata begged for another rematch and Takeshita accepted. He even allowed Hirata to only need a 2 Count pin to beat him while Takeshita would need to pin Hirata for a 20 Count! The match began again with those conditions. This time Robinson got involved by stopping Takeshita from attacking Hirata with a chair. He also offered a pair of Hirata GO! glasses but Takeshita destroyed them. Robinson got on the mic to sing “TOKYO GO!” again in order to revive Hirata’s chances. This time Takeshita put on the glasses and started dancing only for Robinson to sneak in and Low Blow Takeshita! Hirata then got in the Miracle One Shot Cradle but Takeshita kicked out at one. Hirata’s comeback was cut off with the Wagamama knee strike but he somehow kicked out at 19! Another Miracle One Shot Cradle was done as a counter for the Raging Fire but Takeshita kicked out at one again. Possibly knowing how close of a call that was, Takeshita flipped Hirata over into the Walls Of Takeshita to win the match by submission instead of pinfall.

After the match Takeshita told Hirata his style of wrestling is one of a kind and it is time for him to become No. 1 in DDT again! He wants Hirata to show him the ultimate Dramatic Dream. Then they can have another rematch where this time Takeshita will need to pin Hirata for a 30 count! After they left the ring, DDT announced that Takeshita will return at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” in Sumo Hall on 11th August for a single match against Kaisei Takechi!

paleyouth got their first KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence in the bag after beating Harimao today. The challengers were accompanied by Kazusada Higuchi but he stood by and did not get involved. Daichi Sato stood toe to toe with Naomi Yoshimura while Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku threw both Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida away with German Suplexes. The match came down to Masada dodging Ishida’s Ensho and then hitting him with two Manburi kicks for the victory.

The champions were then greeted by FANTÔMES DRAMATIC after the match. Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda were there to get the next title shot until Honda talked about how dramatic it would be for a team with Hinata Kasai in it to win the titles from paleyouth. Masada asked if Kasai had even won a match yet? Kasai said he hasn’t but that doesn’t mean he cannot get his first win against them! He thinks the best way to celebrate his first win would be to hold championships with the rest of Fandora. All of a sudden, Brookes grabbed Bunbun and threw him into the audience! He went to retrieve him afterwards only to throw him to another part of the room! Masada swore revenge by declaring he will take all of his anger out on Kasai!

As part of the plan to get the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Minoru Suzuki, the opposing team in the Handicap Match took part in Gongitsune training before the match. Their logic is Suzuki’s biggest weakness is his eyeballs so it will be up to Honda to poke them. Hisaya Imabayashi bravely started the match with Suzuki but was left to fight by himself and was almost choked out with the Sleeper Hold. Sanshiro Takagi got into a Chop Battle with Suzuki while Danshoku Dieno stopped him with a Lip Lock. When Honda’s attempts at Gongitsune kept on failing, Suzuki got on the microphone to ask everyone how long is DDT going to keep doing this kind of pro wrestling? This is the kind of pro wrestling that makes New Japan wrestlers look down on them! He called Takagi the root of all evil but then admitted to having good memories with everyone in the ring with him. Honda finally poked him in the eye with Gongitsune during the speech but Suzuki didn’t react. He revealed he had trained his eyeballs in anticipation for this match! Honda charged up Gongitsune by using Dieno’s Hell Gate but Suzuki blocked it by stealing Imabayashi’s glasses and putting them on to act as a shield. Suzuki then fought off Toru Owashi & Super Sasadango Machine but was caught with the Stunner by Takagi. Suzuki resisted the impact at first but soon ran out of energy and collapsed to the match. Everyone piled on top of him to get the pinfall but Daisuke Kiso declared afterward that it was Imabayashi’s glasses that pinned Suzuki which means the Glasses are now the Iron Man Champion! Later at the end of the show Honda found the glasses over at the timekeeper’s table and destroyed them to be declared the new champion.

The rule for the DDT Extreme Title match was Yukinori Matsui had to wear a helmet with a button attached to it on his head. If To-y or Hideki Okatani pressed the button, they would then need to make Matsui laugh during a staring contest. Succeeding in that would allow them to use a bamboo sword as a legal weapon for one minute. To-y was eager to follow those rules while Okatani was not in the humour to mess around like that. When he kept ignoring the rule, Matsui told Okatani he wants him to make him laugh. Okatani finally obliged and made a funny face to make Matsui collapse in laughter. Okatani then whacked To-y over the head with the bamboo stick and pinned him with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster to become the new Extreme Champion.

After the match KIMIHIRO appeared at the entrance to make an introduction for Yukio Naya. When Naya got into the ring he told Okatani that “extreme” means big so he’s going to use his size to take the Extreme Title from him! Okatani called Naya arrogant but accepted his challenge for 15th April. According to him, just because Naya is big doesn’t mean he can beat Okatani to win the title. Meanwhile To-y accepted defeat and praised Okatani for being the star of the match even though he expected Okatani would remain as a supporting character.

Fandora have another championship match to look forward to soon. Brookes & HARASHIMA teamed up against Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki to determine the No. 1 Contenders for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Miyawaki almost had HARASHIMA beat with the Sunshine Clutch but Brookes broke up the pin. HARASHIMA fired himself back up to put Miyawaki on the defensive and used the Somato on Aoki to knock him off the ring apron. Meanwhile Brookes gave Miyawaki a Piledriver, rolling him into position for another Somato to give Fandora the win. Backstage HARASHIMA said they knew their opponents had moves that could beat them regardless of how much stamina they had so it was up to their own teamwork to get past any close calls and win.

It was 29th June, 2025 when Shunma Katsumata last wrestled a proper match. Now after spending the last nine months rehabilitating from a torn ACL he was back in action and wrestling his good friend MAO. They wasted no time in setting their pace and MAO even broke a few plastic boxes in the process. Katsumata went for the Totonou Splash but MAO blocked it with his knees. Katsumata tried to fire himself back up after taking the Michinoku Driver II but he was put away with a Running Palm Strike afterward. Katsumata spoke about how happy he is to be back in the ring after 265 days. As long as he gets to wrestle like this he will never complain. He might get injured again but he’ll recover and return again no matter how many times it happens! MAO said he hopes this is the last time Katsumata has a comeback match. He and Katsumata will also make sure they will never put themselves in a position where they have to forfeit a championship again.

The 3 Way Tag Match featured the DDT debut of Masami Inahata. He got to start off the match against Kumadori until Ilusion got involved trying to form alliances. When that didn’t work, MJ Paul went on the attack by targeting Makoto Oishi. Inahata got his moment by giving Paul a Brainbuster but Ilusion ruined it by giving Inahata a Low Blow afterward. In the end it was the teamwork of Viento Maligno & Kumadori that won out. Kumadori did a Fosbury Flop onto everyone outside the ring while Maligno pinned Ilusion with his finisher to win. Kumadori liked teaming with Maligno but wishes they could communicate better because Maligno doesn’t seem to understand Japanese. Oishi told Inahata that today is a new beginning for him and he will become even bigger in DDT.

Evil Uno was welcomed back into DDT for a tag match against The Apex. Uno teamed with Akito but the pair of them were overwhelmed by the power of Iino & Naya. One big Spear from Iino to Akito was all it took to end the match. Iino hasn’t been wrestling that much lately but he reminded everyone he is still training hard. Uno said he should be unhappy over the result but the last time he was in DDT he had to kiss Dieno’s butt so today was a much better experience for him.

Jun Akiyama stood before Rukiya as his big challenge in the opening contest. Rukiya tried to deal some damage outside the ring only for Akiyama to do that to him instead. Rukiya was able to rope break his way out of a Crab Hold and he also kicked out of the Exploder Suplex. Akiyama waited patiently to hit him with a Knee Strike before using another Exploder to beat him.

One of the dark matches was put together by Tokyo Joshi Pro to promote “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” taking place at Sumo Hall on 29th March. HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase went on to beat Toga, Ren Konatsu & Shion Kanzaki. Kazashiro scored the win for her team and got to advertise the show for her post match victory speech.

The other dark match was Yuni taking on Hinata Kasai. As already mentioned earlier, Kasai still has not won a match by himself yet. He tried to submit Yuni with the STF but Yuni got out of it and used the Jorge Clutch out of an Arm Drag to pin him.
