September 23, 2021

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2021 TOUR IN SAPPORO DAY 2”, 23/09/2021
Hokkaido Sapporo ii-one Stadium
234 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Shunma Katsumata & MAO Vs Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Saki Akai ended in a No Contest (12:12).
2. Sanshiro Takagi & Tomoya defeated Antonio Honda & Naomi Yoshimura when Tomoya pinned Honda with the SOD (11:25).
3. Soma Takao defeated Hideki Okatani with the Official Endless Waltz (10:04).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Noriyuki Yoshida defeated HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Yoshida pinned Hirata with the Lightning Leg Lariat (14:14).
5. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Darkunesu K when Endo pinned K with the Darkness Driver (11:48).
6. Sapporo Specialty Special Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno defeated Chris Brookes & Akito when Takeshita submitted Akito with the Plus Ultra (11:48).

Akito showed up wearing a similar leather jacket to Chris Brookes. They came close to winning the main event when Yuki Ueno’s Shining Wizard accidentally hit Konosuke Takeshita. Brookes took Ueno outside and left it up to Akito to finish off Takeshita. Instead Takeshita countered Akito’s grappling and locked him in the Plus Ultra for the submission victory. Takeshita shook hands with Brookes after the match.

Keigo Nakamura went missing before the show and was replaced with Darkunesu K again. K tried once more to prevent DAMNATION from splitting up but he was defeated once more.

Without going into detail, shenanigans from Danshoku Dieno caused Yukinori Matsui to faint during the opening match. It had to be called off without a winner.

Two injuries led to changes in the card. Yukio Sakaguchi has spinal canal stenosis detected in his lower back while Yuji Hino has damaged ligaments in both his right knee and right ankle. No timeframe was given for their returns.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2021 TOUR IN ASAKUSA” Results

September 16, 2021

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2021 TOUR IN ASAKUSA”, 16/09/2021
Tokyo Hanayashiki Asakusa Flower Theater
120 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Toru Owashi & Yoshihiko defeated Yuki Ueno & Antonio Honda by TKO when Yoshihiko used a Sleeper Hold on Honda (9:19).
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Mizuki Watase ended in a No Contest when Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari interfered (10:36).
3. Naomi Yoshimura & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie when Yoshimura pinned Paulie with a Lariat (13:08).
4. Jun Akiyama & Hideki Okatani defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when Okatani pinned Koroku with the Double Arm Suplex (12:59).
5. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Darkunesu K when Endo pinned K with the Darkness Driver (8:00).
6. Asakusa Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & MAO defeated Chris Brookes, Yukio Sakaguchi & Yukio Naya when Takeshita submitted Naya with the Plus Ultra (16:46).

The other members of The 37KAMIINA interviewed Konosuke Takeshita in the ring after the main event. They asked him what it was like fighting Chris Brookes today? Takeshita was surprised by how intense Brookes threw chops at him. But he has the momentum right now and if he can beat Brookes while teaming with Keigo Nakamura on Saturday then he will definitely have his challenger figured out. Backstage Brookes said today was his own homecoming match because he used to live in Asakusa two years ago. The positive he is taking from today’s match is Takeshita couldn’t put him in the Plus Ultra, proving he hasn’t made any progress.

Nakamura was missing from today’s show. Instead Darkunesu K took his place declaring he will not let DAMNATION split up! At first he was willingly teaming with Kazusada Higuchi to fight Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo but he ended up turning on his partner with a signboard attack. That didn’t mean anything to DAMNATION because Endo beat him anyway.

The whiff of Pheromones surrounding DDT is only getting worse. Danshoku Dieno interrupted the show opening speeches by warning that the third member of the group was here today and it could be anyone. Sanshiro Takagi became paranoid and suspected it was Hisaya Imabayashi. That made him determined to destroy Pheromones before they could get any stronger. During the tag match Mizuki Watase kept blowing his moves, hitting Takagi by accident. Dieno then revealed Watase is the third member! Takagi hit Watase with a Lariat but Dieno then gave him a Low Blow and laughed. It was a trick! Imabayashi ran in for the rescue but accidentally hit Takagi with an Axe Bomber. Takagi grabbed him only to receive another Low Blow from Dieno. Takagi got his second wind and fought off Dieno & Yuki Iino until suddenly, the cameraman Yumehito Imanari entered the ring and hit Yukinori Matsui with the camera! He then attacked Takagi causing the match to end without a winner. He stripped down to his underwear and said he felt “Fantastic!” Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari has joined Pheromones! He can use his camera to shoot Pheromone’s sexy matches as the naked director!

DDT “DAMNATION ILLEGAL ASSEMBLY RETURNS VOL. 4” Results

July 26, 2021

DDT “DAMNATION ILLEGAL ASSEMBLY RETURNS VOL. 4”, 26/07/2021
Shinjuku FACE
193 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Choun-Shiryu defeated Darkunesu K with the Chinese Bombs Away (7:35).
2. Hiroshi Yamato defeated Kikutaro with a School Boy (6:54).
3. Tetsuya Endo defeated Leo Isaka with the Shooting Star Press (12:15).
4. Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura defeated Soma Takao & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Shimomura pinned Shimatani with an Inside Cradle (14:35).
5. Mad Paulie’s Five Years And A Few Months After His Birth Anniversary Match: Kohei Sato, Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie defeated Kengo Mashimo, Masashi Takeda & Keizo Matsuda when Paulie pinned Matsuda with the Reverse Splash (16:36).
6. MONDAY NIGHT WAR: Minoru Fujita defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Modified Tombstone Piledriver (24:32).

A first time singles match turned out to be no fun and games at all. Minoru Fujita walked out fully representing his Fujita Pro Wrestling☆School and also had the Super Asia Title from Gatoh Move. Meanwhile Daisuke Sasaki came out still carrying the stolen DDT Universal Title. The atmosphere quickly turned sour when Sasaki ignored Fujita’s offer for a handshake. A furious Fujita then said he would kill Sasaki and went to poke his eyes out. Sasaki fought back by biting his fingers. The struggle and dirty fighting continued throughout and Sasaki became motivated enough to wrestle with his shirt off. He used Yukinori Matsui as a shield at one point but Fujita cut him off on top of the turnbuckles. From there Fujita hit an Avalanche Tombstone for a nearfall. He hit another Tombstone as a counter to La Mistica for another two count. Fujita had to do the Somato and then the “Sayonara” version of the Tombstone to finally put Sasaki down for the three count.

Fujita called his victory over Sasaki a miracle. It is a win he will talk about for the rest of his life. He will carry the achievement with him until his retirement, which will happened somewhere between 4 to 50 years from now. Sasaki complained about Fujita ruining the show. Sasaki was supposed to beat him but he was too strong. Sasaki promised to get stronger and win in the rematch. Fujita then cut him off and said they will never wrestle each other again. Sasaki accepted that and asked to be a teacher in the Fujita Pro Wrestling☆School instead. He then told the fans today was supposed to be Sasaki beating Fujita on the road to winning the Universal Title from Yuki Ueno and then he couldn’t be called a thief anymore. At least the audience had more fun here than at the Olympics today so that cheered him up a little.

Mad Paulie got some spotlight by winning his 5th Anniversary match. He was asked to comment backstage and simply grunted “Arigatou!”

Match #4 was a double reunion of sorts. Soma Takao and Shigehiro Irie were both in the Team Dream Futures stable. Daiki Shimomura & Nobuhiro Shimatani used to team together as Gran MilliMeters in DNA. Shimatani took the fall against his former partner but declared today is the beginning of Chapter 3 of his life as a freelancer. Sasaki asked what happened to Chapter 2 and Nobu told him it already came and went.

Tetsuya Endo had wanted to face Leo Isaka for a while now but DDT were never able to put it together. Endo had to take things into his own hands and book the match at a DAMNATION show like this one. Isaka does the Shooting Star Press because he first saw Endo do the move. He got the chance to use it here but Endo dodged it and later hit his version to win. When Sasaki found out Isaka is like a 22 year old version of Endo, he thought about bringing him in as a replacement. He’ll fire Endo when he turns 30 next month and bring in Isaka to be the new Endo.

There were plenty of antics when Hiroshi Yamato fought Kikutaro. A lot of them had Matsui involuntarily involved. During a mix up, Kikutaro tried pinning Matsui with a Small Package. When nothing happened, Yamato rolled Kikutaro over with a School Boy to get the win.

The risk of darkness surrounding the world has been averted for now. At least it is here, I mean. Choun-Shiryu defeated Darkunesu K with the aid of a cone bar. The evil version of Keigo Nakamura was a bit of a nuisance but nothing that Shiryu couldn’t handle in the end.

DDT “SUMMER VACATION 2021 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 15/07/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – No DQ, No Submission Rules: Chris Brookes (E/c) Vs Shinya Aoki (I/c)

A lot of time was spent by Chris Brookes thinking up the stipulation for the double title match against Shinya Aoki. He decided on No DQs and also No Submission rules. Moves that are normally illegal are allowed but almost all kinds of submission holds will be banned. The only kinds that can be used are holds the referee will deem too dangerous to use in normal matches. Aoki complained about the rules but Brookes explained that he also is at a disadvantage because he cannot use the Octopus Hold. Therefore they will be on equal footing. Aoki thinks the rules will create the worst wrestling match of the century. Brookes disagrees. His felt his title defence against Saki Akai brought new aspects to her wrestling game. So from now on he is using his DDT Extreme Title matches to show new sides of his opponents that no one has ever seen before. Aoki had no choice but to accept the stipulation. He had to be reminded that his Choke Holds won’t be allowed either.

DDT “DAMNATION ILLEGAL ASSEMBLY RETURNS VOL. 4”, 26/07/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. Hiroshi Yamato Vs Kikutaro
2. Soma Takao & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura
3. Tetsuya Endo Vs Leo Isaka
4. Mad Paulie’s Five Years And A Few Months After His Birth Anniversary Match: Shuji Ishikawa, Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie Vs Kengo Mashimo, Masashi Takeda & Keizo Matsuda
5. MONDAY NIGHT WAR: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Minoru Fujita

There will be a special guest on the show in the form of Darkunesu K. This being is a character Keigo Nakamura came up with during the Lords Mobile promotional campaign DDT was a part of recently. Nakamura needs to do a lot of dark activities during the day in order to summon Darkunesu K from within himself.

I’m hoping for a big showing from Leo Isaka against Tetsuya Endo here.

DDT “BEER GARDEN-LIKE PRO WRESTLING 2021 DAY 1”, 30/07/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. Danshoku Dieno Produce Match – Kaidan Shin Numabukuro Death Match ~Showa, Heisei, Reiwa Are Also A Classic!~: X Vs X
2. Saki Akai Produce Match: Kazusada Higuchi’s Relative, Yukio Sakaguchi’s Relative & Saki Akai’s Relative Vs Kazuki Hirata’s Relative, Yuki Iino’s Relative & Keigo Nakamura’s Relative
3. HARASHIMA Produce Match: X Vs X

It’s all relatives for one of the matches on the first day of Beer Garden. It is Saki Akai’s idea to get some “enchanted blood” wrestling in her segment.

Hisaya Imabayashi gets to tell his annual ghost story. Where does he keep getting them?

DDT “BEER GARDEN-LIKE PRO WRESTLING 2021 DAY 2”, 31/07/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. Shunma Katsumata Produce – Hardcore 4 Way Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Yuki Ueno Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs MAO
2. Tetsuya Endo Produce Match: Tetsuya Endo & Hiroshi Yamato Vs Seiya Morohashi & X
3. Makoto Oishi Produce Match ~ Our Youth: Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Hideki Okatani Vs MEN’S Teioh, Makoto Oishi & Shiori Asahi

I think this is the first time Jun Akiyama and MEN’S Teioh will be in the same match together. Makoto Oishi has gone all out with this booking with Shiori Asahi included to make it a more complete Men’s Club reunion.

Seiya Morohashi? Boy it’s been years since he was last in DDT. I mean yeah there was an appearance on a Masahiro Takanashi booked show in 2019 but other than that his last DDT match was in 2016.

Of course Shunma Katsumata’s idea for his slot is to put all of The 37KAMIINA into a hardcore match.

DDT “BEER GARDEN-LIKE PRO WRESTLING 2021 DAY 3”, 01/08/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. Rock & Roll Death Match: Antonio Honda Vs X
2. The Annual Tradition! Customer Lottery Match: X, X & X Vs X, X & X

Can’t leave out Antonio Honda from the Rock & Roll Death Match. Unless he gets hurt, that is.

DDT “SUMMER VACATION 2021”, 15/08/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Kininashi Wanaru ~The Universe In My Head~ Match: X Vs X

There will be an Infomercial match promoting a new show on WOWOW called Kininashi Wanaru ~The Universe In My Head~. The series explores different forms of creativity and one of the episodes will focus on DDT. The two hosts Noritake Kinsahi and Cunning Takeyama will be special guests at Korakuen Hall to witness what DDT has cooked up for them.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2021”, 21/08/2021
Fujitsu Stadium Kawasaki

0. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita Vs X
1. Special Hardcore Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & MAO Vs Chris Brookes & Jun Kasai
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita

Konosuke Takeshita says everything is in order for him to become the KO-D Openweight Champion again. His King Of DDT victory showed he now has the physical ability, mental attributes, luck and momentum to be the top wrestler in DDT. He has lost two singles matches to Akiyama that both took place last winter. It was up to Takeshita to fix his own problems and it began with his appearances in AEW back in April. As a result of his own actions over the last three months, Takeshita is now confident to fight Akiyama to see who is best. Even though Akiyama is well accepted into the DDT family at this point, Takeshita is still going to treat him as the enemy.

As if having Atsushi Onita isn’t enough to keep the hardcore flavour around, Jun Kasai will be on the show too. Katsumata and Brookes have a little bit of tag history with him. MAO fought him in a Hardcore match a few years ago too.
