6. Takeshi Masada’s 3rd Anniversary Match ~ 3 Vs 1 Handicap Match: Takeshi Masada defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Bunbun when Masada pinned Honda with the Masada no Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (18:40).

Today’s main event was supposed to be celebrating the 3rd Anniversary of Takeshi Masada’s debut match. However plans slightly changed and he had to fight the rest of SCHADENFREUDE International by himself. That’s right, Bunbun didn’t want to team with him, he wanted to fight him instead. So Bunbun sided with Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda for a 3 Vs 1 Handicap Match against Masada. It was Bunbun’s debut wrestling match but the puppet ended up storming off after three missed attacks from Brookes hit him by mistake. Honda came up with an idea to bring him back by leading the others in the Bunbun Resurrection Dance. It succeeded too well because suddenly Bunbun emerged from under the ring in a second, more human sized form! He attacked everyone using John Cena’s moveset until SCHADENFREUDE all ganged up on him and forced him out of the ring. Bunbun later returned in his normal form but injured his knee in an attempted dive. It was all so he could do a Gongitsune spot with Honda. Masada evaded the attack and ended up beating Honda with his finisher. Masada thanked the others for having such a fun match with him on this anniversary and Bunbun talked about how much fun pro wrestling is.

The stipulation of the Elimination Tag Match was that every time there was a 1 Count kickout or a rope escape, everyone got to drink a cup of beer except for the team captains Yuki Ishida and MJ Paul. So nearly everyone in Harimao and DAMNATION T.A got drunk quickly while Ishida and Paul tried to take the match seriously.

Yukio Naya knows what always happens when you wrestle Danshoku Dieno so he wanted to embrace it. However Dieno didn’t want to give him the Lip Lock because he doesn’t think Naya is cute looking. He was apologetic over it and the two ended up clashing heads with each other after HARASHIMA accidently pushed them together. Naya and Dieno ended up switching bodies and now Dieno (in Naya’s body) gathered the urge to Lip Lock Naya (in Dieno’s body). He put on the Danshoku tights, did the Lip Lock and won the match with the Danshoku Driver. He then ran around ringside chasing after the ringside attendents. Later in the show Naya (in Dieno’s body) appeared during the Blindfold Bra match wearing his wrestling outfit.

Both To-y and Yuya Koroku are currently trying to farm as many life points as they can for their DDT Extreme Title match on 30th August. Life Points are mostly earned from social media posts getting lots of views but it also turns out they can be wagered too. To-y had 10 LP going into today’s show while Koroku had 12 so the two agreed to gamble 10 points each on their match in the opener. To-y beat Koroku directly to win the match for his team so not only did he win 10 extra LP, he also won Koroku’s Right To Challenge Arm Cover! Having caught the gambling bug, To-y then challenged Koroku to a double or nothing game of Rock Paper Scissors. He won that too but then kept asking for more rematches so he could reach his goal of 100 Life Points! Unfortunately his luck ran out and Koroku finally won a game. As a result both of them have reset their LP to 0 and will go back to social media to start farming LP again.

DDT “YOKOHAMERMAID” Results

August 9, 2025

DDT “YOKOHAMERMAID”, 09/08/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

2. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere 3 Way Match: Kazuki Hirata defeated Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine when Hirata pinned Dieno with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (13:27).

5. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida defeated Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Higuchi submitted Matsunaga with the Claw (9:22).
6. Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Minoru Suzuki & Akito when MAO pinned Akito with a Gedo Clutch (14:16).
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (c) defeated Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi when Okatani pinned Sumi with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster (20:42).
*V4 for DAMNATION T.A.

The two and a half heavyweight challengers tried using their size to take the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles from DAMNATION T.A. by stacking up on each other. But they didn’t think it through so Kazuma Sumi tried and failed to piggyback Yuki Iino and Yukio Naya over his shoulders. MJ Paul then pulled the referee out of the ring when Naya had Choke Slammed Hideki Okatani. With the ref down, Daisuke Sasaki started attacking the other team with a chair and Ilusion gave them Low Blows too. The Apex figured out how to stack themselves up properly by having Iino piggyback Naya and Sumi stand on top of them for a dive. Unfortunately Sumi missed and despite trying to use the School Boy for a last gasp victory, he ended up getting pinned by Okatani with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster.

After the match Okatani taunted The Apex by telling them to train more for the KO-D Tag Team Titles match at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025”. Sasaki said that won’t matter because he and Okatani will surpass them through sheer talent alone. He then had an announcement to make about “CHARISMANIAxMANIAxMANIA” on 2nd October. The main event is going to be Sasaki & El Desperado taking on Shuji Ishikawa & Antonio Honda! Two years after Sasaki and Desperado fought each other in DDT, they now want to team up!

A trickster to the end, MAO was involved in one of the more creative match finishes of the year. He tried to pin Akito with the Japanese Leg Roll Clutch but Minoru Suzuki blocked it and put him in the Sleeper Hold. KANON broke that up and knocked Suzuki into MAO back to back. From there MAO gave Suzuki a Backslide Pin while applying the Gedo Clutch to Akito, pinning both of them for the win. With this victory MAO believes he is now the only person who can take the DDT Universal Title back from Suzuki. However Suzuki has now sworn to kill him at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025”!

Kazusada Higuchi is looking forward to defending the KO-D Openweight Title against Jun Akiyama. He sees it as his chance to get revenge for failing to take the title from Akiyama back in 2021. Akiyama said he may have lost today’s prelim match but he got to have a good look at Higuchi. They still have a few more weeks to go until the match so Akiyama hopes he and Higuchi will stay in good condition until then.

The DDT Extreme Title exists to be an avenue for wrestlers to be at their most creative. To-y is expecting Yuya Koroku to come up with an idea crazy enough to make their upcoming title bout exciting. Today Koroku tested his idea out by applying “I Am Koroku” rules (Kazuki Hirata came up with the name) to his tag match against To-y. The rule was a total pinfall count of 20 was needed to win the match alongside the other usual ways. However Koroku ended up winning the match by submission instead. To-y complained that the rules never said that but Koroku defended himself by explaining he never said pinfall was the only way to win. Since To-y is the champion he gets to pick the rules for the title match. He announced them on social media after the show. From now until the day of the show, he and Koroku will receive one life point for every social media post they make that reaches over 10,000 impressions. During the match itself every one count pinfall, rope break and getting thrown out of the ring will take away a Life Point until the loser is reduced to zero.

The first Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere prize was up for grabs. This year the prizes are represented with different color Arm Covers. However the first match featured wrestlers who were all hesitant to win for one reason or another. It turns out Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine and Kazuki Hirata all do not want to deal with the pressure of holding the title shot that they could lose before cashing it in. Hisaya Imabayashi pleaded with them to take the match seriously so they did. Hirata won the match and couldn’t help but feel fired up over it. He now expects to get beaten up more than usual while building up anticipation for when he will cash in his KO-D Title shot. If he loses it before then he will only be disappointing everyone so he promised to keep it like it was part of his costume.

DDT began the show with a 10 bell salute dedicated to the late Tomohiko Hashimoto. He passed away at 47 years old from liver cancer on 5th August.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU – DAY 1” Results

July 15, 2025

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU – DAY 1”, 15/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Yuya Koroku defeated Yuki Ishida with the Chickenwing Arm Lock (9:51).
2. Director Contra Retirement Match: Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya, HARASHIMA & Akito defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, Ilusion, MJ Paul & Mataro when Iino pinned Mataro with The Apex Elbow Drop (12:20).
3. Rock ‘N’ Roll 4 Way Death Match: MAO (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated A.YAZAWA, Kazuki Hirata and Takeshi Masada when MAO pinned YAZAWA with the Stone Cold Stunner (15:30).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno & Chris Brookes defeated Daichi Sato, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi when Higuchi pinned Yuni with a Body Slam (14:16).
5. DDT Extreme Title – About 24 Hours!! 10,000 Yen Of Pocket Money!! Pro Wrestling Excursion Death Match: To-y (c) defeated Hikaru Sato with the Kaze Ni Nare Splash (25:43:21).
*V1 for To-y.
6. Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated KANON with the Gaydo Clutch (11:55).

During the start of the show Danshoku Dieno and KANON had an interaction over at the autograph session that resulted in them getting into a fight. HARASHIMA stepped in to calm them down and the two bowed to each other in apology. However they ended up clashing heads and swapping bodies with each other! For the main event Dieno walked out wearing KANON’s gear and being accompanied by the rest of Strange Love Connection while KANON appeared in Dieno’s gear doing his style of entrance. Dieno in KANON’s body eventually put himself in the Hell Gate position where several wrestlers at ringside were thrown face first into his backside. Ryoma Tsukamoto, MAO, Kazuma Sumi and Yuki Ishida were all made victims of this and they all stripped off their clothes to reveal they were wearing Danshoku outfits underneath! While they caused chaos in the venue, KANON and Dieno clashed heads again and swapped their bodies back to normal. Dieno then gave KANON the Lip Lock and pinned him with the Gaydo Clutch. KIMIHIRO tried to close out the show with SLC but MAO & KANON both gave him the Lip Lock instead. Backstage Dieno said he isn’t sure if today gives him any momentum for his upcoming match against Hiroshi Tanahashi. But he did Tanahashi’s “Aishitemasu” pose to send him a message.

In the 24 hours leading into this show To-y and Hikaru Sato were given pocket money to spend on anything they wanted to use as weapons for their DDT Extreme Title match. The rules also allowed them to find ways to increase their pocket money whether it was through a public autograph session or even gambling. The match itself was also ongoing but the two were so busy finding ways to make cash and spend it that they ignored fighting each other until they actually got to the venue. To-y actually travelled to Odaiba and Sato to Harajuku at certain points in the day in search of allies to hire. To-y tried to hire Yukio Naya and Shunma Katsumata while Sato gave money to Minoru Suzuki but it turned out it was only to buy some stuff from his Piledriver shop. However it turned out Sato did indeed buy some hired goons because Ryoma Tsukamoto, Takahiro Tababa and Gajo all agreed to attack To-y for only 100 yen each. However Yuya Koroku decided to come to To-y’s rescue and even the odds somewhat. Sato put on a Minoru Suzuki shirt and the image of Suzuki intimidated To-y. But To-y took the shirt off Sato and put it on himself, causing Sato to freeze in fear at the sight of Suzuki staring back at him. The shirt also intimidated the goons into joining To-y’s side and they all piled on top of Sato after To-y did a Diving Splash while shouting “Kaze Ni Nare”. To-y said it was fate that Sato was his first challenger for the Extreme Title (actually it was a fan vote on Twitter). He also told him that any money he lent from him would not be given back. Koroku though helped To-y for free so rather than give him money, To-y asked if he would like to challenge for the Extreme Title instead? Koroku said yes because he is jealous of To-y for being the first D GENERATIONS wrestler to win that championship. The title match will go ahead at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025 – DAY 1” on 30th August.

Daichi Sato was convinced by NωA Jr. to join in with their musical entrance for the 6-Man Tag Match. While they tried their best in the actual match they ended up being picked apart by Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno & Chris Brookes. The finish came from Higuchi repeatedly Body Slamming Yuni, encouraging him to get back up after each one. Yuni tried fighting back with some Elbow Strikes but Higuchi knocked him down with a Chop and pinned him with one final Body Slam. He gave him words of encouragement after the match, explaining that if he feels frustrated then that means he is serious about wrestling. The hiatus he is about to take also shows he is taking his college entry exams seriously as well. So if there is only one thing Higuchi can say to him it is he must pass!

KIMIHIRO got involved in the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match a couple of ways. Most of the music for the match played over the speakers but at one point he sang along to it with MAO joining in for a duet. KIMIHIRO also joined in with the dancing by the end and was caught in a chain of Stunners that led to MAO pinning A.YAZAWA for the win.

There was a surprise return on the show when Mataro walked out with DAMNATION T.A instead of Daisuke Sasaki! He told Akito he came here today to rise up against the ruling elite! For the last 20 years he’s been working the cameras and videos for DDT and CyberFight and he is tired of recording third rate wrestlers! Akito decided if Mataro was going to wrestle this match then he must retire if he loses. But DAMNATION T.A won then Akito would step down as Vice President of CyberFight. When the match began Sasaki was found at ringside working as a cameraman and decided to join in on the action after all. Mataro tried to submit Yuki Iino with the Crossface and when that didn’t work he went for a Lariat while Sasaki held Iino from behind. Iino broke free and Mataro hit Sasaki by mistake. Iino then took Mataro down and pinned him with The Apex Elbow, forcing Mataro into retirement for a second time. He also got a retirement ceremony again.

6. DDT Extreme Title – About 24 Hours!! 10,000 Yen Of Pocket Money!! Pro Wrestling Excursion Death Match: To-y (c) Vs Hikaru Sato

The DDT Extreme Title match already begun earlier today. To-y and Hikaru Sato have spent the day in Shibuya where they held a public autograph session to raise more money to spend on weapons. To-y forgot to bring a marker so Sato is charging him 1,000 yen everytime To-y wants to borrow his own. When the session ended both wrestlers actually raised quite a bit of cash. Sato tweeted he added 40,000 yen to his allowance while To-y claims he raised 65,000 yen. Since then Sato went off to go find weapons to buy while To-y unsuccessfully tried to hire Yukio Naya as his bodyguard.

Unfortunately Antonio Honda has come down with a case of love sickness so he cannot compete tomorrow. A.YAZAWA will take his place in the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match.

DDT “OSAKA VS TOKYO – DREAM EAST VS WEST PRO WRESTLING BATTLE 2025”, 17/08/2025
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Rukiya Return Match: Rukiya Vs X
2. East Vs West Vs Unknown All-Out Competition ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Iino (Tokyo) & Yukio Naya (Tokyo) Vs Chris Brookes (UK) & Takeshi Masada (Osaka) Vs Ilusion (Unknown) & MJ Paul (Unknown)
3. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan (Tokyo), To-y (Saitama) & Kazuki Hirata (Tokyo) Vs Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima), Shigehiro Irie (Osaka) & Mikiya Sasaki (Osaka)
4. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 8-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi (Hokkaido), Daisuke Sasaki (Tokyo), HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) Vs Yuki Ueno (Osaka), Hideki Okatani (Kochi), KANON (Ishikawa) & Kazuma Sumi (Mie)

This show is using geography to put together matches between the east and west of Japan. It results in a few strange bedfellows and in one case, a really bad idea. Putting KANON and Hideki Okatani on the same team is only going to cause trouble.

Rukiya will return after over a year of being on the shelf with a cervical sprain injury. He is treating his return as a way to restart from scratch in order to catch up to the rest of DDT’s young wrestlers.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025 – DAY 1”, 30/08/2025
Tokyo Higashin Arena Main Arena

1. Hinata Kasai Debut Match: Hinata Kasai Vs X
2. Muscle Sakai 15th Anniversary Of Retirement Match ~ Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs Muscle Sakai
3. Dramatic Dream Tag Match: Zack Sabre Jr. & Kosei Fujita Vs Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Jun Akiyama

The first KO-D Title defence of “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025” sees Kazusada Higuchi put the belt on the line against Jun Akiyama. The two have a history over the title. When Akiyama held the championship in 2021 he defeated Higuchi and ordered him to wrap the belt around his waist afterwards. But then when Higuchi won the title in 2022 Akiyama was there to wrap the belt around him to bring things around full circle.

When Zack Sabre Jr. wrestled a match in DDT last year he said he would likely return when he becomes the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion again. Looks like he lived up to his promise because he and Kosei Fujita are coming back for a tag match against their buddies Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada. Things are usually friendly between TMDK and SCHADENFREUDE International but wrestling being the way it is means something can always happen to add some heat to the match. Like mistreating Bunbun for example.

October 2010 was when Muscle Sakai retired from pro wrestling after facing Minoru Suzuki in what was supposed to be his final match. Of course pro wrestling retirements are worth dick so it didn’t take long for Sakai to return under the hood of Super Sasadango Machine. This year is the 15th anniversary of that match so it is a good time to revisit it. Sakai is going to face Minoru Suzuki again!

DDT’s newest rookie is the son of Jun Kasai! That’s right, Hinata Kasai is following in the foot steps of his dad although it is interesting to see DDT become his landing spot. Hinata’s dream is to surpass his father as a wrestler but that doesn’t necessarily mean he will do it through death matches.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025 – DAY 2”, 31/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Universal Title: Minoru Suzuki (c) Vs MAO
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Winner Of 16th July Battle Royal
3. Dramatic Dream Match: Hiroshi Tanahashi Vs Danshoku Dieno

Due to a misunderstanding over Hiroshi Tanahashi asking Sasadango to treat him to a meal sometime, the New Japan ace is coming back to DDT for a Dramatic Dream Match against Danshoku Dieno! Tanahashi is doing the rounds of Japan’s pro wrestling scene on his road to retirement. This match might be the one that’s the most unbelievable.

Either Higuchi or Akiyama will be defending the KO-D Title against the Battle Royal winner.

After defending the DDT Universal Title against Yoshihiko, Dieno and now Shinya Aoki it is time for Minoru Suzuki to face someone who is truly universal. MAO thinks it is time for him to hold the Universal Title once more and he has the momentum to beat Suzuki for it. The two have recently travelled together for some overseas bookings so Suzuki is actually looking forward to having MAO as his next big opponent.

3. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA (c) Vs Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda
4. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs Takumi Tsukamoto

You know I should have seen this coming. BASARA gets new management with Ryota Nakatsu and Takumi Tsukamoto becoming the two most powerful figures in charge. So when Nakatsu went looking for someone to challenge him for the Union MAX Title, Tsukamoto was standing right there until Nakatsu chose him as his next challenger.

The Iron Fist Tag Team Champions have made new enemies. Hyakusho Ikki thought Ayumu Honda wanted to join them but what he really wants is to take the tag titles from them! Honda already had it planned out because he had a tag partner chosen and everything. Kengo Mashimo is back in BASARA and wasted no time in starting a fight with Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA.


DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN UENO” Results

July 8, 2025

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN UENO”, 08/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Yuya Koroku & Yuki Ishida defeated Makoto Oishi & Kazuma Sumi when Koroku pinned Sumi with the Moonsault Press (8:53).
2. Beer Specialty “Youth” Borrowing Competition Death Match: Yuni defeated Kazuki Hirata when Yuni reached 3 Points (10:19).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya defeated Jun Akiyama, Daichi Sato & Soma Takao when Iino pinned Takao with the Spear (10:37).
4. Falls Count Anywhere Crocodile Death Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (w/ MJ Paul) defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada when Ilusion pinned Honda with the Crocodile Splash (16:10).
5. A Match To Win 1,000 Yen In Pocket Money: Hikaru Sato & Akito defeated Yuki Ueno & To-y when Sato sumbitted To-y with an Armpit Hold (15:15).
6. KANON 6th Anniversary Match ~ Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno when KANON pinned Dieno with the Ground Cobra Twist (13:59).

KANON got to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of his debut match successfully by scoring a pinfall victory over Danshoku Dieno. The two will be facing off again soon with a singles match on 15th July so KANON hyped it up with MAO and KIMIHIRO to end the show.

The DDT Extreme Title contract signing took place and To-y revealed to Hikaru Sato what the rules of their match on 1th July is going to be. It will be a 10,000 Yen Pocket Money Pro Wrestling Excursion Death Match! To-y said they will be given 10,000 yen each and must spend an hour before the match spending it on items and hiring allies to appear in the match. Sato convinced To-y to increase the spending time from one hour before the match to 24 hours before the match. Both wrestlers are also allowed to gamble their pocket money in the hopes of getting more to spend. So later in the show they had a tag match where they wagered their money on penalties. They would have to give over 1,000 yen for every time they get pinned, 2,000 yen for every rope break they use to escape a submission hold and 3,000 yen whenever their tag partner had to break up a pin or submission. Sato’s team won the match and after all of To-y’s penalties were added up, Sato now had 19,000 yen while To-y only had 1,000 yen. To-y was upset with having so little cash that he pleaded with Sato to lend him 9,000 yen. The fans convinced Sato to lend him the money so they are now back to 10,000 yen each. Backstage Sato said he thought DDT wasn’t that kind of company anymore where everyone borrows money a lot. But if the cost of winning the Extreme Title is 10,000 yen then Sato is willing to pay it.

The Crocodile Death Match was pretty much a big excuse for SCHADENFREUDE International and DAMNATION T.A to have a massive water fight against each other. Everyone brought out water guns of various kinds, they dunked each other into big bins filled with water and Daisuke Sasaki tried to drown Bunbun. The crocodile was attached to Ilusion’s back by Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul. He jumped from a bench onto Antonio Honda in the kiddie pool to pin him for the three count. Chris Brookes and Takeshi Masada tried to get the last laugh by throwing buckets of water at DAMNATION T.A after the match.

The heavyweight trio of Kazusada Higuchi & The Apex were dominant over Jun Akiyama, Daichi Sato & Soma Takao. Akiyama was in danger of being beaten by Yukio Naya so Sato went to fight Naya off. But that left Yuki Iino free to Spear Takao and get the win for his team. Iino was impressed by Sato’s kicks during the match and encourages him to strike him more. Naya however warned Sato not to underestimate him. Akiyama meanwhile told the KO-D Tag Team Champions not to hold back against him and his tag partner. This has only just begun.

A special rule was added to the Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni match. Hisaya Imabayashi would write a request on a piece of paper and the wrestlers would have to go do that request to earn a point. The first to reach three points would then win.

With Shunma Katsumata currently out injured, NωA Jr. had original NωA member Makoto Oishi fill in for him in the opening match. He did the entrance as well as wrestle in the match.

The young trio of Daichi Sato, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi will be getting some tough matches at the Beer Garden this time around. Kazusada Higuchi is the common opponent on both teams facing them.

Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada better use their preparation time getting to know the best way to disarm a chainsaw wielding maniac.

*V3 for DAMNATION T.A.

Chaos broke out for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles main event. Bunbun was left to hang upside down from one of the nearby banners in the room. Antonio Honda tried to beat Ilusion with the Tenzan Tombstone Driver but MJ Paul pulled the referee out of the ring to stop his pin count. That allowed DAMNATION T.A to attack SCHADENFREUDE International with chairs. Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani got rid of Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada, then hit Honda with the Claymore Kick and the Pedigree onto the chair. However Ilusion missed the Swanton Bomb and landed on the chair, allowing Honda to roll him up in the Japanese Leg Clutch Hold. Okatani just about broke the pin in time and Ilusion used his own Arm Clutch version of the move on Honda called the Bombo Claat to get the three count in the end. No new challengers stepped forward afterwards so Ilusion declared DAMNATION T.A as the forever champions!

Both Kazusada Higuchi and HARASHIMA signed the contract for their KO-D Openweight Title bout earlier in the show. During the signing Higuchi brought up all of the times he challenged HARASHIMA for the KO-D Title and lost. He believes successfully defending the KO-D Title against him will be his way of getting revenge. HARASHIMA said he wants to win the title to he can bring it with him for his homecoming show on 27th July. They then faced off in a tag match with Yukio Naya and Soma Takao also involved. HARASHIMA was able to hit Higuchi with the Somato at ringside but Naya ended up beating Takao in the ring. After the match HARASHIMA said he could feel Higuchi’s mental strength as well as his physical one.

Hikaru Sato has been hearing To-y’s claims about being a crazy wrestler so he wanted to give him an extreme test to prove it. Michael Nakazawa recently sent him bottles of laxatives from America so Hikaru and To-y agreed to drink a bottle each one hour before their match today took place. Their match also involved Jun Akiyama & Daichi Sato warming up against Yuki Iino for their upcoming KO-D Tag Team Titles bout. Akiyama & Daichi noticed To-y was holding it in so they purposely targeted his stomach while Hikaru was also showing signs of panic. Thankfully nothing disgusting was let loose in the ring and as soon as the match finished both Hikaru and To-y sprinted for the toilets while Iino and Daichi kept fighting each other. Then once things calmed down, Hikaru and To-y returned to the ring to pose over the DDT Extreme Title. Hikaru later said the match left him feeling refreshed because he and To-y fought their guts out. To-y promised to come up with a crazier rule for the title match and will keep the belt for when Shunma Katsumata returns from injury.

Apparently the 5 Way Match was all in Hisaya Imabayashi’s head. He dreamed about the impending destruction of the planet so everyone had to try and win the match before the world was doomed. Time ran out though and explosions could be heard throughout the room. Nothing happened after that and the wrestlers looked around in confusion. They noticed Imabayashi was sleeping at his desk and woke him up, learning that it was all a dream he was having.
