What was supposed to be a big DDT show to celebrate the 28th Anniversary of their debut show turned into a scary ending in the main event. Chris Brookes and Masahiro Takanashi wanted to give it their all for their KO-D Openweight Title match with neither holding back their efforts. A table was set up at ringside and Takanashi tried to put Brookes through it with the Takatonic. However Brookes blocked the move and countered it into an Implant through the table instead, busting Takanashi open in the process. KUDO made a surprise appearance at ringside to psyche up Takanashi and get him to continue the match. That inspired Takanashi to use KUDO’s Diving Double Knee Drop on Brookes but Brookes blocked it with his own knees. The fight went back up to the top turnbuckle where Brookes stopped Takanashi from doing the Avalanche Takatonic. Instead Brookes gave him the Avalanche Praying Mantis Bomb, causing Takanash’s head to hit off the back of the canvas. Brookes followed up with a regular version of the Praying Mantis Bomb for the three count.

Things quickly became concerning once the match was over when Takanashi was unable to move. He was still conscious and could talk to Brookes, Yukinori Matsui and the ring doctor. Brookes held the microphone to Takanashi so he could thank the fans, Brookes and DDT that he loves them all. The ending of the show was paused and everyone remained in their seats so the ambulance could arrive and the medical team could safely take Takanashi away on a stretcher. He was still conscious, was able to speak and he even raised his fist to the crowds as he was being taken away. As the show was officially brought to a close, Sanshiro Takagi told the fans on the microphone he is confident that Takanashi will definitely come back from this injury.

DDT are currently waiting to hear on his diagnosis before they announce any further details. Tokyo Sports were able to get a comment from the ring doctor. Takanashi told him his upper body was feeling numb and he couldn’t move his lower body. While the news article suggests there is a possibility of a cervical spine injury based on that description, the doctor himself cannot say what the extent of the injury is until they get the MRI results.

While Takanashi was being tended to in the ring, DDT tried to keep the show going by having Yuya Koroku approach Brookes at ringside. Brookes was holding the KO-D Title while Koroku carried out the D GENERATIONS CUP trophy. Koroku said he is not the same person he used to be. He is no longer the Koroku from BURNING and he is no longer a “Generic Endo” either. He found his confidence, won the DGC and will be facing Brookes for the KO-D Title on 6th April. Brookes understandably wasn’t in the mood to spend much time on this so he had a brief staredown with Koroku before trying to close out the show with the rest of SCHADENFREUDE International.

Great job, Yuki Ueno. You used the DDT Universal Title as bait to get a match with Minoru Suzuki and he just came over, beat the crap out of you and won the championship. This definitely didn’t go the way he thought it would. The “Pirate King” overwhelmed Ueno with his power and took the fight out to the bleachers. Ueno was able to fight back and even use a chair as a weapon against Suzuki. He seemed to find some joy in the fight and even used Takagi’s finisher the Sit Down Himawari Bomb for a nearfall. But Suzuki kicked out of the BME and eventually got Ueno to crack by putting him in the Sleeper Hold. The Dropkick to the face that usually works out so well for Ueno couldn’t take Suzuki off his feet. Instead Suzuki dropped Ueno with the Gotch-Style Piledriver to win his first ever DDT championship.

Suzuki could see that Ueno was in pain and agony after the match but he couldn’t help but tell him he had fun today. Suzuki will happily “play” with him again anytime. Ueno left the ring in frustration while Suzuki could hear a voice coming from the championship telling him to bring it to the outside world. Suzuki is travelling to Las Vegas next month so if anybody wants to aim for him and the Universal Title, he welcomes them to come forward and challenge him. There are no borders for him and he won’t discriminate against class or gender. Wherever there is pro wrestling Suzuki can defend the championship there as long as he can find an opponent who is undoubtedly strong. Meanwhile Ueno is coming to terms with just how big of a mistake he made by doing this match.

The Astronauts have successfully landed in DDT by beating MAO & To-y to become the new KO-D Tag Team Champions! The Bati-Bati style of the “Fighting Detectives” is just what was needed to match MAO’s fucked up wrestling along with To-y’s fiery attitude. Fuminori Abe was almost beaten when he took the Whirlwind Kick from MAO followed by the Kojima Wonderland but Takuya Nomura broke the pin. MAO attacked Nomura with a Quebrada leaving Abe and To-y left in the ring to fight each other. Abe countered the Kojima Wonderland into the Manjigatame and then forced To-y down onto the mat with a grounded version of the hold to make him give up.

Astronauts were quickly met by one of their first challengers when Keigo Nakamura got into the ring. Nakamura wants to challenge them with Shinya Aoki as his tag partner. Abe said they would be happy to do the match and it was confirmed for the 6th April Korakuen Hall show. Nakamura said backstage he’s been relying on Aoki so much that he wants to win the tag belts under his own power. Astronauts told reporters they want to use the KO-D Tag Titles to help them investigate not just DDT but the wider pro wrestling scene to prove they are the best tag team in the world!

As for the former tag champs, MAO dropped a big announcement by telling reporters he will now leave The 37KAMIINA! He believes he has done everything he can do with the group and has nothing more to teach To-y. In fact now is the time he expects To-y to try and beat him. There are many more things away from The 37KAMIINA that MAO wants to do including things he admits he should have already done by now. He already made his mind up to leave once he lost the KO-D Tag Titles with To-y so that means today is the day. DDT is going to completely change because of this decision and MAO wants to bet on that happening. He said he’s not quitting DDT but his schedule for the next four months is going to make people a bit dizzy when they see it.

KANON Vs Daisuke Sasaki was advertised as a singles match but it may as well have been a Handicap Match given how much DAMNATIONA T.A got involved. KANON took a bamboo stick beating from Hideki Okatani, had Ilusion all over his back and just when he though the coast was clear MJ Paul was there to cause more trouble. In the end another stick strike from Okatani set KANON up for La Mistica Crossface Lock so Sasaki could win. After the match Sasaki called KANON weak but took back the claim he is an unwanted child. He is in fact needed to serve as a sacrifice for Okatani’s return match on 6th April. Sasaki decided the match at that show will be Sasaki & Okatani against KANON in a 2-on-1 Handicap Match! Hell is still to come for KANON and Okatani told him not to run away. KANON was in an emotional mess backstage but accepted the match because he has nothing left to lose.

The DDT Extreme Title match is meant to be Super Sasadango Machine’s last time fighting for the belt so he, Danshoku Dieno and Amon Tsurumi wanted to make it as dramatic as possible. Dieno chose a stipulation that would force Sasadango to join DDT full time if Dieno won the match. But if Sasadango won the match then Dieno’s beloved pet dog Haku would join the DDT roster instead. It became the topic of Sasadango’s pre-match PowerPoint presentation where he talked about labour regulations and the risks of forced labour. Tsurumi argued Sasadango’s point by reminding him he retired from wrestling once before and came back anyway. To make the match even more dramatic it slowed down and paused at points so the audience could listen in to the thoughts and feelings of those at ringside. Yukinori Matsui wondered when to step in and ask if the wrestlers would give up, the cameraman was complaining about how difficult it is to film Dieno without getting into trouble and Dieno wanted to convince Sasadango just how fun pro wrestling can be. The audience even heard the thoughts of the celebrity guest commentator Leyla Ikeda from the comedy duo Kanjuku Fresh. She was completely bored out of her mind by the match and was waiting for the handsome wrestlers to show up. Tsurumi however was thinking the complete opposite and was moved by the match his friends were putting on. Dieno called his shot to finish the match with three Moonsaults in a row but Sasadango caught up to him and hit the Lehman Shock from the top rope to win the match and the Extreme Title!

Tsurumi complained about the finish and told Sasadango he couldn’t do a top rope move in slow motion. Sasadango admitted it didn’t turn out the way he expected. He apologised to everyone including Stardom and their company president Taro Okada for some reason. Haku was brought down to the ring by Makoto Oishi to give a comment about becoming DDT’s newest roster member but all he did was sniff the microphone. Sasadango later said he wanted to do his best for Yuki Iino because Iino’s injury made him miss out on an Extreme Title shot. Sasadango also announced he has an event coming up in Tokyo on 9th June and advised fans to keep their schedule free for that day. Dieno admitted he is a bad owner and bad father for letting Haku join such a barbaric wrestling company. However he knows Haku has guts and they will do their best together side by side. He also needs to negotiate what percentage of Haku’s merchandise they’re going to get from the company once DDT starts selling it.

In just a few weeks time Daichi Sato will become DDT’s newest roster member (getting beaten to the punch by Haku is DDT in a nutshell) so he was given a big tag match teaming with Jun Akiyama to take on HARASHIMA & Takeshi Masada. Sato wasted little time going toe to toe with HARASHIMA and linked together well with Akiyama when it came to fighting against Masada. But HARASHIMA won out in the end by pinning Sato with the Somato. Akiyama was pleased with Sato’s performance and challenged him to a singles match on 6th April as Sato’s first official match as a DDT wrestler. Akiyama encouraged Sato to hunt the old man down!

Part of Koroku’s preparation for his KO-D Title match was to show up in new wrestling gear for his match today. However Akito had new gear too so that spoiled things a little bit. He had Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura teaming with him but went at it alone with Soma Takao for the final stretch. Koroku was able to counter Takao’s Gin And Tonic into the Triangle Lancer and held onto the move to make Takao give up.

DAMNATION T.A also ruined JJ Furno’s DDT debut. Ilusion didn’t know who he was and made fun of his hair. He seemed to care more about his brand new college diploma, until he used that to hit Tomomitsu Matsunaga over the head with. MJ Paul then went on to pin Matsunaga with the Reverse Splash.

The 3 Way Match was filled with the nonsense you’d expect from the people involved. Kazuki Hirata was ignored and felt left out. Then he got mad when Antonio Honda and Toru Owashi decided to act like a tag team against him. He powered up with the Hirata GO! glasses but was stopped when Honda tripped over the ropes and summoned Gongitsune. Honda and Owashi fought each other but it slowly turned into something more romantic with Honda forming Owashi’s hands into a heart sign. Just when they were about to kiss, Hirata interrupted the moment so he could get a kiss from Matsui. However Owashi rolled up Hirata in a School Boy so the match continued. Honda hit Hirata with the Shining Gongitsune but Owashi then rolled up Honda with La Magistral Cradle to get the win.

New KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions were guaranteed in the opening match. It was also the return bouts for both Kazusada Higuchi and Shunma Katsumata so one of them was becoming a champion in their first match back from injury. Kazuma Sumi & Yuni did stereo Moonsaults out of the ring while Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida doubled up with sumo slaps to the opponents. It all came down to Sumi catching Ishida by surprise with a School Boy to make NωA Jr. the new champions at Harimao’s expense. Sumi said it was speed and quickness that defeated power and strength today. Katsumata said no matter how many times he falls he always crawls and gets back up. He wants to show his true colors and show everyone bigger dreams with NωA Jr.

There is more good news for Harimao coming up though. Naomi Yoshimura gave everyone an update on his health since he took time off from wrestling in November 2022 to rehab his neck injury. He will soon return to the ring and have his first match back on 6th April! He promised to repay all of the kindness he received during his absence and will show his wrestling to new fans who haven’t seen him before. He is not going to return to a full time schedule at first but whenever DDT wants to book him he will be available. Yoshimura’s first match back will be an 8-Man Tag featuring all of Harimao teaming together.

The field for King Of DDT 2025 was revealed. The 16 participants announced for this year’s tournament are Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA, Daisuke Sasaki, Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno, Yukio Naya, KANON, Takeshi Masada, Masahiro Takanashi, Shunma Katsumata, Akito, Hideki Okatani, To-y, Yuya Koroku, Daichi Sato and Shinya Aoki. Obviously with Takanashi’s injury he will no longer be taking part.

Things are going to be different for DDT’s usual biggest show of the year this time round. “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025” will be held over a two day weekend. Day 1 will be held at Higashin Arena in Sumida on 30th August and Day 2 will be in Korakuen Hall on 31st August.

Press Conference For Judgement 2025

March 18, 2025

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

9. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki
10. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

This week DDT held a press conference at Ota Ward Industrial Plaza to promote some of the top matches happening at “JUDGEMENT 2025” this Thursday. The four title matches for the show all went through public signing ceremonies. Masahiro Takanashi admitted he was feeling overwhelmed and out of place to be in the main event KO-D Openweight Title match. He has been a part of DDT for 22 years and the early days left a strong impression with him. He thinks DDT was able to grow thanks to all the hard work of the people in the company. Chris Brookes picked him to be his opponent because he wanted to fight him. He understands it was not done out of kindness and if he loses the match he will have to take some time to think about himself. On 20th March Takanashi wants to prove he is still alive in DDT. Brookes said he has watched Takanashi fought in championship matches for other promotions and wanted to fight him in a similar way. He wants to see Takanashi shine in Korakuen Hall and not be held back by his past. That is how SCHADENFREUDE International will build an even brighter future for DDT.

At first Minoru Suzuki was unusually straight to the point with his comments. He simply said he would do his best for the DDT Universal Title match. Yuki Ueno said if he can fight Suzuki to his heart’s content it will fulfill all of his desires as the champion and then some. Suzuki then spoke up and asked Ueno if he is hiding something because he doesn’t think Ueno said everything he wanted to say. They will go all out in the ring to destroy Korakuen Hall and everything in it. Suzuki expects himself to win the match and become champion but that is not why he wants to fight Ueno. He is shocked to find out just how interesting a wrestler Ueno is and wants him to show all of his crazy side. Ueno didn’t agree and started arguing with him over who is crazy.

The rules for the DDT Extreme Title match were revealed at the press conference. Danshoku Dieno thought long and hard about the rules and decided the loser must join DDT! Super Sasadango Machine’s current deal with the company is a loose affiliation that makes him more like a freelancer than a company employee. If he loses this match he must go wrestle in more matches, go on more tours and give DDT a cut of his payments from other entertainment activities! Dieno is already part of the DDT roster so he decided if he loses then his pet dog Haku must become a full time member of the roster. Other than that the match will be held under normal wrestling rules. Sasadango doesn’t like that idea either because he’ll have no chance of winning that way!

The contract signing for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match began with NωA Jr. performing their song for everybody before talking about how excited they are for the match. Kazuma Sumi & Yuni have been waiting for Shunma Katsumata to recover from his injury so the idol unit would be complete again. Sumi said he will use the best version of his School Boy to win the match, Yuni wants to win the titles on his path to ultimately becoming the KO-D Champion and Katsumata thinks the belts suit them better than they suit Harimao. However they agree they will need to work together to win. Kazusada Higuchi promised to fight to the best of his ability in order to survive, Ryota Nakatsu wants to push out as strong as he can to celebrate Higuchi’s return and Yuki Ishida said he will overwhelm the idols with his masculinity.

I won’t be writing up a preview for the show because I want to keep that to big arena shows and American events. So even though DDT is celebrating their anniversary on Thursday it’s still a Korakuen Hall show at the end of the day. Also I’ve had a busy St. Patrick’s Day and would like to sleep some of it off while I have the chance. The next previews I write will be for the Las Vegas shows next month.

DDT “CRIME PREVENTION TRAINING PRO WRESTLING” Results

March 16, 2025

DDT “CRIME PREVENTION TRAINING PRO WRESTLING”, 16/03/2025
Ota Ward Industrial Plaza (PiO) 4th Floor Convention Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Falls Count Anywhere Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & HARASHIMA defeated Danshoku Dieno & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (16:44).

One of the panels taking place at today’s DDT fan event in Ota Ward was about training and raising awareness for crime prevention. DDT took part in a demonstration for some of the equipment local authorities can use to aprehend criminals. Yuki Ueno & HARASHIMA played the roles of troublemakers who would then get caught by the different equipment. However actual troublemakers then entered the room when Danshoku Dieno & Keigo Nakamura crashed the panel and demanded a Falls Count Anywhere Match.

The two teams fought each other all over the room, using whatever bits and pieces they could get from fans to use as weapons. Dieno ended up taking a fan hostage with a knife while Ueno crashed into a castle of chairs set up on one side of the room. However Dieno ended up getting the knife stabbed into his backside, causing him to faint onto a table with the knife still sticking out. Ueno & HARASHIMA then used the crime prevention equipment to immobilise Nakamura and win the match.

*Special Referee: Katsumi Tamagawa

In 2020 Kazuki Hirata planned to put together a show to celebrate the 10th anniversary of his debut match. Sadly he had to shelve the idea due to the pandemic and waited around for five years so he could have an appropriate occassion to finally run the show. What better time to do that than this week with the 15th anniversary approaching the horizon? Hirata went ahead an invited close friends of his from across the wrestling scene to put the event together. The main event was a wealth of Jr. Heavyweights from different companies gathering together to celebrate Hirata. There was Hiromu Takahashi from New Japan, YO-HEY from NOAH, Keisuke Ishii from Ganbare☆Pro, Kenshin Chikano from Dove Pro and Soma Takao from DDT all joining Hirata in the main event. Hirata’s old Kobe classmate Katsumi Tamagawa got involved too as the referee.

Hirata almost felt left out in his own main event so he pleaded with Takahashi to tag him in so he could get the victory himself. He fought to use the Hirata GO! glasses but came to the realization he doesn’t want to dance on his own anymore. Takahashi & Ishii assured him they would join in and they all put on the glasses. Even the other team found their own pairs and joined in for the big finale. Hirata then purposely singled out YO-HEY & Chikano because today will be the last time all three of them will be fighting each other in the ring. They fought to a stalemate, leading to Takao getting tagged in. He gave Hirata the Perfect Driver but the pin got broken up. Takahashi hit Takao with the Hiromu Bomber, Ishii followed up with the Kneel Kick and Hirata scored the pinfall with the Egoist Driver.

This was an unusual position for Hirata to be in so he asked the other wrestlers to talk first after the match. Takahashi said he knows Hirata the least out of everyone in the group but Hirata was the first wrestler he’s ever beaten and that was a turning point for his career. He also brought up what a great memory their match at Sumo Hall was back in November 2023. He still doesn’t understand what the rules were that day but he remembers Chris Jericho praising it. He’s had many moving matches with many wrestlers but that one has stuck with him the most. Ishii told Hirata they’ve been friends since their trainee days. Things may have changed a bit as the years have gone on and Ishii became Hirata’s senior but he thanked him for letting him join his team today. Hirata said it took 15 years for all of these dots to connect together. Good things will happen to him if he keeps going so he is glad to have become a pro wrestler.

For a show that was meant to all fun and games for everybody it took a very dangerous turn in the semi-main event. Heat between Pokotan and Yoshihiko led to them fighting each other from the get go. MAO joined in and the fight went outside the ring. MAO & Yoshihiko would then give Pokotan a double chairshot near the entranceway, causing the mascot to get busted open! Back in the ring Yoshihiko worked over HARASHIMA until Pokotan returned with a chair. Pokotan and Yoshihiko had a tug of war over the chair, accidentally knocking out Yukinori Matsui when the chair was thrusted into him. MAO attacked Pokotan with an umbrella then handed it over to Yoshihiko. Their attack backfired when Yoshihiko charged, Pokotan jumped out of the way and the umbrella stabbed straight through MAO’s stomach! More chaos happened that ended with HARASHIMA accidentally hitting Pokotan with the Somato, causing the mascot’s head to fall off. MAO & Pokotan did an Iai Kick/Canadian Destroyer for a nearfall and then won with the Double Rainmaker to Pokotan.

Things were a little bit rusty for the return of Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor. There was a moment when Shinya Aoki kicked Naruki Doi by accident but they were then attacked by the other team before anything could go further. Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor were able to regroup and get the win in the end.

Hirata promised the winner of the Battle Royal would get a special prize that he promised would cheer them up. Chris Brookes took advantage of a mistake Yuya Koroku made to knock him out of the ring. Maku Donaruto showed up as one of the surprise entries and he ended up chasing Yuni out of the ring. An even more unexpected surprise appeared when the last entrant turned out to be Kotoka, the Dragongate wrestler who retired back in 2018! Brookes was happy to see him because he was a big fan of his but that didn’t stop Kotoka from eliminating him. Kotoka then went on to win the match and Hirata’s special prize. It was one of Hirata’s old wrestling outfits. The trunks, the kneepads, the wristguards and everything. Kotoka didn’t want them and threw it all out of the ring.

Hirata’s special day meant he wasn’t the one losing a match in under 10 seconds like he usually does. That happened to Antonio Honda instead. Before the match restarted, Hisaya Imabayashi warned everyone that Punch Tominaga can be really scary and his promotion Dragongate does not allow dirty humour. That didn’t stop Danshoku Dieno because he still pulled his own wrestling tights down to “Open The Dream Gate”. Tominaga joined in the dirty jokes by using Dieno’s Dream Gate to charge him up but Dieno ran out of energy. Tominaga then ordered Imabayashi to get in the same position and joined him. While that happened, Honda was pinned by Toru Owashi to end the match leaving Tominaga frozen in an awkward position.

DDT “YACCHAINA FIGHT 2025” Results

March 8, 2025

DDT “YACCHAINA FIGHT 2025”, 08/03/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Daisuke Sasaki & Ilusion defeated Yuni & Yuki Ishida when Ilusion pinned Yuni with the Swanton Bomb (8:11).
2. Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya defeated MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Naya pinned Hirata with a Slap To The Back (0:28).
2a. Rematch: Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya defeated MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Rakao pinned Hirata with a Running Elbow Butt (9:57).
3. Special Single Match: KANON defeated MJ Paul by Disqualification when Hideki Okatani interfered (9:06).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku defeated Shinya Aoki, Keigo Nakamura & Kazuma Sumi when Koroku submitted Sumi with the Modified Triangle Lancer (10:44).
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Minoru Suzuki & Akito when Ueno submitted Akito with the Blackout Sleeper (16:38).
6. Road To Judgement 2025! Special Tag Match: Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda defeated Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada when Takanashi pinned Brookes with the Bracchus (19:55).

Not long to go now until it’s time for “JUDGEMENT 2025”. Today was the last day for preliminary tag matches involving some of the upcoming title bouts happening at DDT’s 28th Anniversary show. SCHADENFREUDE International was split into two for the main event. Chris Brookes teamed with Takeshi Masada while his next challenger Masahiro Takanashi teamed up with Antonio Honda. Takanashi was on the receiving end of CDK style tag team moves this time. Brookes & Masada gave him the Thrust Kick/Piledriver combo that CDK likes to do. However Takanashi kicked out of the pin and all of a sudden trapped Brookes in the Bracchus to score a win over the KO-D Openweight Champion! The message is clear. No matter what Brookes does to Takanashi, Takanashi will take the KO-D Title from him in the end! Takanashi even said after the match that those three seconds are worth more than the six years they’ve been together!

The other prelim match of note is the only time Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki were facing each other before their DDT Universal Title match. At first Suzuki overwhelmed Ueno with submission holds as well as attacks outside of the ring. To-y suffered the same when Suzume brushed off his Chops and knocked To-y down with only one of his own. However To-y rescued Ueno from the Gotch-Style Piledriver, giving Ueno the space to put Akito in the Blackout Sleeper and win by submission. Suzuki told Ueno after the match he isn’t going to give him the usual B-Grade warnings to hype up their title match. Instead he encouraged him to give the fans a more fun and intense match at Korakuen Hall. One that will destroy Korakuen with the combined force of all their might! Ueno admitted today was a painful match but he hasn’t had enough fun yet to give up the belt now.

KANON is now living a life where he has to fight by himself. His match with MJ Paul immediately went sideways because the rest of DAMNATION T.A would attack him at ringside. Part of the attack included Hideki Okatani hitting KANON with a bamboo stick. Ilusion then interfered when KANON put Paul in the Cobra Twist. KANON fought him off and went to finish Paul off when Okatani returned with another bamboo stick attack. He then hit the referee with it causing the match to end in disqualification. Daisuke Sasaki told KANON he is going to teach him a lesson and end him on 20th March. He then broke a chair over his head. Okatani told KANON a powerless guy like him has no choice but to be controlled by DAMNATION T.A. Backstage KANON said he knows better than anyone what they do because he was with the unit for three years. He promised to get revenge on them and kill Sasaki at Korakuen!

Something was off about Hisaya Imabayashi today. When Match #2 ended in seconds like a Kazuki Hirata match usually does, the GM didn’t react to it. Instead he jusy looked depressed. This made the wrestlers all concerned for him so he explained lately he has lost his passion for wrestling. Everyone agreed to have an immediate rematch and make it so exciting that Imabayashi would care enough to get angry again when they eventually ruin it. It took some effort but they eventually helped Imabayashi find his passion again and enter the match to stop their nonsense. He was then quickly incapacitated by Danshoku Dieno’s Hell Gate.

Before NωA Jr. started their musical performance Yuni tried to roll up Shunma Katsumata in a failed attempt to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Katsumata kicked out and after an awkward moment or two the group sang their song like nothing had happened.

DDT “DDT MEET & GREET & FIGHT MARCH” Results

March 6, 2025

DDT “DDT MEET & GREET & FIGHT MARCH”, 06/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Yuki Ishida defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Flame Palm (6:32).
2. To-y & Yukio Naya defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Naya pinned Hirata with a Slap To The Back (0:14).
2a. Prevent An Instant Kill! A Death Match Where You Can’t Go Home Until You’ve Eaten All Of The Akagi Nyugyo Style GariGarikun: To-y & Yukio Naya defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when To-y pinned Hirata with the Kojima In Wonderland (15:05).
3. Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku defeated Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura when Koroku submitted Nakamura with the Modified Triangle Lancer (12:51).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Shunma Katsumata defeated To-y (c) by submission (7:21 pm).
*Shunma Katsumata becomes the 1,737nd champion.

It was a cold evening to hold a pro wrestling show outdoors. It was a good thing for the wrestlers that it was a short one as part of the “MEET & GREET & FIGHT” series. In the main event Keigo Nakamura tried joining in with the SCHADENFREUDE International shenanigans and Chris Brookes also interfered to help out Takeshi Masada. However HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku were able to withstand the disadvantage and went on to win the match. Koroku afterward called this team the HARASHIMA Smile Camp and said he is now in great shape for next month’s KO-D Openweight Title match.

As already mentioned, it was cold out today and the wrestlers were effected by it. Match #2 only lasted 14 seconds when Yukio Naya slapped Kazuki Hirata over the back which was enough to pin him immediately. Hisaya Imabayashi was furious over how fast the match was and came up with a punishment. He knows a normal rematch would end quickly a second time so he told the two teams they’re not allowed to win the match until they eat three ice pops. To-y and Danshoku Dieno in particular really didn’t want to eat them and had to force themselves into doing it. Hirata though was in the mood to do a magic trick. He stuck the last ice pop into Dieno’s Hell Gate and when he pulled it back out it had transformed into a chocolate ice cream! He forced Naya to take a bite but To-y then did the same to him before winning the match with the Kojima Impact.

The cold weather came into play again during the photo session held after the show. Shunma Katsumata ambushed To-y and wrapped him up in tape until he was immobilized. Katsumata demanded To-y to give him back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title but he refused. So Katsumata started force feeding him ice pops until he gave up, which counted as an Iron Man Title change. To-y had to go straight back to the photo session after he was freed.

KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles Vacated, Hirata Might Be Booker Of The Year, Full Cards For Grand Princess & Judgement 2025

February 25, 2025

Today DDT announced the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles have been vacated by DAMNATION T.A. The status of the championship was up in the air since Sunday after KANON was kicked out of the unit. He was one third of the champions along with Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul but the situation between them was “deemed difficult” according to DDT for future title defences to be scheduled. A match to determine the 57th champions will be announced as soon as it is decided on. I swear DAMNATION T.A have the weirdest luck with tag team championships. They either lose them immediately or hold onto them long enough for something within them to fall apart.

Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

Meiko Satomura will face Yuki Arai in what may become Satomura’s final appearance in the promotion before her retirement. Raku has challenged Pom Harajuku for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title and is doing so out of love. Aja Kong is going to cause some destruction again. Moka Miyamoto is going to bounce off of Max The Impaler like a tennis ball being thrown into a wall. Kakeru Sekiguchi returns to TJPW to team with Mahiro Kiryu again and this time she’ll be introduced to Kiryu’s cat Haruna Neko.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2025 ~28TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 20/03/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Toru Owashi Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata

*Special Referee: Amon Tsurumi.
9. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki
10. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

Meanwhile Chris Brookes decided to defend his KO-D Openweight Title against his longtime CDK teammate Masahiro Takanashi. But this is not being done out of love or friendship. The two want to give DDT fans a fight to remember to close out one of the most important shows of the year for the company.

Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine are threatening to give everyone the worst match ever for their DDT Extreme Title bout. Hisaya Imabayashi will be turning back into Amon Tsurumi for one night only to officiate the match.

He doesn’t understand why he’s been expelled from DAMNATION T.A but KANON wants to get revenge on Daisuke Sasaki. DDT quickly put together the singles match between them for this show.

It’s planned to be a five hour show but the card still has to be crammed together a little bit. That means Kazusada Higuchi and Shunma Katsumata will make their respective returns from injury in the same match. It’s also a good excuse to have a Harimao Vs NωA Jr. trios match.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Hideki Okatani Return Match: Hideki Okatani Vs X
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

Whoever comes out of Korakuen as the KO-D Champion in March will return there in April to defend it against the D GENERATIONS CUP winner Yuya Koroku.

KANON was kicked out of DAMNATION T.A to be replaced by the return of Hideki Okatani! He isn’t ready to wrestle again just yet but once April comes around, the world will see what this new version of Okatani will get up to.
