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 “SANKO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. OME PRESENTS HARASHIMA RETURNS HOME! ~WE’RE HOLDING A SHOW IN OME! WHY? BECAUSE IT’S MY HOMETOWN!~”, 27/07/2025
Sumitomo Metal Mine Arena Ome Sports Hall 1

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.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Lil’ Kraken Vs Takeru Inoue

DDT “SANKO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. OME PRESENTS HARASHIMA RETURNS HOME! ~WE’RE HOLDING A SHOW IN OME! WHY? BECAUSE IT’S MY HOMETOWN!~”, 27/07/2025

The two members of NωA Jr. who aren’t injured are going to face each other! Yuni and Kazuma Sumi better not destroy themselves out there. They still have a solo concert to prepare for and Shunma Katsumata’s injury doesn’t help things.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. GRACE PROJECT Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Captain Grace, Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura Vs Tomoya Hirata, Mizuki Watase, Ultra Soki & HIROYA
2. Special Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & El Desperado Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino
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.

Where in the hell did Keisuke Ishii dig up Leatherface from?!? This match has a bit of W*ING flavour to it because we have a horror movie monster fighting a tag team of martial artists. Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada better use their preparation time getting to know the best way to disarm a chainsaw wielding maniac.

DDT “YOKOHAMA NIGHT SPLASH” Results

July 5, 2025

DDT “YOKOHAMA NIGHT SPLASH”, 05/07/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: KANON defeated MJ Paul with the Just Cobra Twist (7:50).
2. 5 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Akito Vs Naomi Yoshimura Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuya Koroku ended in a Time Limit Draw when the Earth’s destruction was averted (?:??).
3. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Kazuma Sumi defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida when Ueno pinned Ishida with the Frog Splash (9:52).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Hikaru Sato & Daichi Sato defeated Yuki Iino, To-y & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Akiyama pinned Matsunaga with the Exploder Suplex (12:23).
5. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya defeated HARASHIMA & Soma Takao when Naya pinned Takao with The World’s Best Back Drop (12:13).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (c) defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada when Ilusion pinned Honda with the Bombo Claat (21:17).
*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.

Shunma Tears His ACL Again, DDT Lineups For July, ZSJ At Wrestle Peter Pan

July 4, 2025

During the week Shunma Katsumata injured his knee during practice and was diagnosed with a torn ACL in his left knee. He will be out of action for a while. It is the same injury he suffered last November that kept him on the shelf until this past March so he is having rotten luck with his health lately. A lot of his matches for July were already booked so plenty of show lineups had to be changed around because of his injury.

The public contract signing for the next KO-D Openweight Title match will happen before the show starts.

With To-y and Hikaru Sato about to face each other for the DDT Extreme Title soon, they’re first going to test each other out in a tag match.

The KO-D Champion and KO-D Tag Team Champions are teaming up together. Two of their opponents will be challenging for the tag titles soon but Soma Takao is sticking out like a sore thumb here.

DDT “ROCK IN RING 2025 ~PLAY THE STRIKES, SHOUT THE CHEERS”, 13/07/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Naomi Yoshimura & Antonio Honda Vs Soma Takao & Yuni
1. 3 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Super Sasadango Machine Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida Vs Chris Brookes, Jun Akiyama & Daichi Sato
3. Special Tag Match: Kosei Fujita & Takeshi Masada Vs To-y & Yuya Koroku

5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Akito & Kaisei Takechi Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul
6. DDT Universal Title: Minoru Suzuki (c) Vs Shinya Aoki
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs HARASHIMA

The new champion Kazusada Higuchi instantly attracted one of the best wrestlers in DDT to challenge him for the title. HARASHIMA always wants to fight the strongest wrestlers and admires Higuchi for having the strength to climb back to the top of the mountain after returning from his injuries.

Akito will also be filling in for Katsumata on this show for the all important Kaisei Takechi match.

DAMNATION T.A are really ramping things up. Not only do they have Haruto Sakuraba coming back for his second wrestling match but now Masashi Takeda will be on his team! Ilusion may not even have to do much on the day other than be an annoying little shit to the opponents and that’s second nature to him at this point.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU – DAY 2”, 16/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Dedicated To Lafcadio Hearn! Ghost Story Shin-Numabukuro Death Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Akito Vs KANON Vs Soma Takao
*Ghost Story Artist: Hisaya Imabayashi
2. Noryo KING OF DRUNK Decision Match: HARASHIMA Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Shunma Katsumata
3. Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Kumadori
4. Beer Garden Specialty Customer Lottery 8-Man Tag Match: To-y, Yuki Ueno, MAO, Kazuki Hirata, Antonio Honda, Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku and Yuki Ishida

Ilusion’s behavior has gotten under someone’s skin for them to do something about it. Kumadori has had enough of Ilusion’s cheating and insults so he wants to deal with him one on one.

Just because Katsumata blew out his ACL again doesn’t mean he can’t compete in the KING OF DRUNK contest. He’s still taking part in it as far as I can tell.

DDT “SANKO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. OME PRESENTS HARASHIMA RETURNS HOME! ~WE’RE HOLDING A SHOW IN OME! WHY? BECAUSE IT’S MY HOMETOWN!~”, 27/07/2025
Sumitomo Metal Mine Arena Ome Sports Hall 1

2. HARASHIMA Debut 24th Anniversary Match – Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Togi Makabe & Yasu Urano Vs Shinya Aoki, Shuji Ishikawa & Akito

The brand new tag team called The Apex are now the KO-D Tag Champs. Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya now have another pair of heavyweights coming to take their new belts. Ever since Daichi Sato became a full fledged member of DDT he’s been teaming with Jun Akiyama a lot. The legend has seen to it to become the teenager’s mentor and could end up being rewarded for it by with a first time KO-D Tag Title reign.

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

1. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

Zack Sabre Jr. will be on the show. Looks like he will only be on Day 1 of “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2025” and not Day 2.

6. Battle Royal: To-y Vs Takeshi Masada Vs Yuya Koroku Vs Yuki Ishida Vs Kazuma Sumi

The war between D GENERATIONS and Young Communication isn’t over by a long shot. Shota has promised to bring someone new into the fold while Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie have yet to be directly beaten by any of their juniors. The D GENERATIONS are also competing against themselves in a Battle Royal for the main event.

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

1. Dance V Idol Battle Without Honor & Humanity ~ Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni

3. KANON 6th Anniversary Match ~ Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno

Years ago when Yuni was just a little boy, he feuded with Kazuki Hirata because that was the level Hirata had to fall down towards just to get a fair fight. Now that Yuni has grown up it’s time to reignited the rivalry with the bonus power of idol dancing involved.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOSHIKO HASEGAWA GRADUATION EVENT – NONFICTION”, 08/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 2: X Vs X

3. Yoshiko Hasegawa Graduation Commemorative Match ~ 1 Vs 27 Handicap Match: Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Suzume, Rika Tatsumi, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku, Yuki Aino, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Moka Miyamoto, Arisu Endo, Yuki Arai, Kaya Torbami, Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Toga, Shino Suzuki, Haru Kazashiro, Mifu Ashida, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase, Uta Takami, Ren Konatsu & Ivy Steele

Well, Yoshiko Hasegawa said she wanted to fight everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro before she retires so TJPW made sure nobody will be left out of her final match. It is a 1 Vs 27 Handicap Match but only one person on the team of 27 is allowed in the ring at one time and tags are in effect. It has not been decided yet how many falls the match will consist of. One definitely won’t be enough and previous retirement matches of this scale have done three falls.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “QUERI PRESENTS TJPW LIVE IN HOUSTON – NIGHT 2”, 11/07/2025
POST, Houston, Texas, USA

An extra name has been added to the Texas tour. Wakana Uehara will be part of the weekend and there might be a good reason why. All of a sudden Miyu Yamashita is no longer able to perform on the 11th July show. That just so happens to be the same day as the next Ring Of Honor PPV and she has started appearing on their shows again. I mean it’s either that or she’s taking a flight to Tennessee for Smackdown (I kid, I kid). Yamashita will still be at the morning fan event in Houston.

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

1. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Hikaru Sato

The new DDT Extreme Champion put up a poll on Twitter asking fans who he should defend the title against first? To-y narrowed the choices down to wrestlers who have at least 5,000 followers and made fans choose between Yasu Urano, Kentaro Hachisu, Hikaru Sato and Mikiya Sasaki (with Shota in his corner). Sato won the vote pretty handily so he gets the title match. It wouldn’t be the first time a fan vote results in Sato winning a DDT championship.

June 15, 2025

6a. If You Spit It Out It’s Over!! Contains Milk. Death Match!!: Super Sasadango Machine (1) defeated To-y (0) when To-y pat out his Milk (2:10).
6b. You’re Going In The Trash Can. Trash Can Death Match!!: To-y (1) defeated Super Sasadango Machine (1) when To-y put Sasadango into the Trash Can (4:30).
6c. Sena 100 Chop Death Match!!: To-y (2) defeated Super Sasadango Machine (1) when To-y did the 100th Chop To The Back (9:36).
*Super Sasadango Machine fails in V3. To-y becomes the 63rd DDT Extreme Champion!

Normally whoever holds the DDT Extreme Title gets to decide on the stipulation match for their defences. However Super Sasadango Machine felt he had enough of an advantage going into today’s show because it was being held in his home city of Niigata. It wouldn’t impress his own people if he were to beat To-y using rules that tipped the match in his favour. So he gave To-y one day’s notice to come up with three stipulations for the fans to vote on. When the show began Sasadango admitted he liked all three of To-y’s ideas so he decideded to have a Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls match for the title.

The 1st Fall had Sasadango and To-y wrestle each other while their mouths were full of milk. Whoever spat out their milk first would lose the fall. Sasadango was able to drink the milk through his mask and he then removed the mask to reveal he had his face painted like Aja Kong! To-y couldn’t help but spit out his milk in surprise. The 2nd Fall was a Trash Can Death Match. You won when you put your opponent into a trach can. They started off using an aluminium bin that was too small so Kong used it as a weapon like Kong’s steel can. Sasadango then gave To-y the Lehmann Shock into a plastic box but it broke apart so it didn’t count. Sasadango found a big plastic pin and wedged it between the ropes but To-y sent him falling into it with a Hurricanrana to win the fall. The 3rd Fall was a 100 Chop Death Match. The match would continue until total amount of 100 chops to the back happened. Whoever did the 100th chop would win and get the Extreme Title. When they reached up to 99 chops Sasadango laid down on his back to defend himself. To-y tricked him into rolling over by pretending to do a Diving Body Attack only to stop and throw the 100th chop to become the new Extreme Champion! He shouted out that he is going so crazy he will run all the way home from Niigata. He told fans to keep watching his crazy Extreme Title matches and when he comes back to Niigata, the show will be sold out again!

Kazusada Higuchi made Antonio Honda give up to the Claw as a warning to Chris Brookes. The two had a staredown after the match but neither said anything. Instead Yuki Ishida spoke on Higuchi’s behalf backstage. He said Higuchi is definitely going to win the KO-D Openweight Title. Brookes better get his act together because the real match happens at Korakuen Hall.

After Match #4 Yuki Ueno got on the microphone and spoke about his support for the D GENERATIONS. He told Yuya Koroku that before he knows it there will be a day when he is no longer a young person and he will wonder what can he do in the future. The good thing is according to Ueno, Koroku has the power to do what he wants and enjoy it as he likes. In pro wrestling you will have friends, teams and opponents but a big aspect is having to work hard by yourself.

Parts of the undercard were changed when Soma Takao fell ill and was unable to wrestle on the show.

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025” Results

June 11, 2025

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025”, 11/06/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku defeated Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul when HARASHIMA pinned Paul with the Somato (9:50).
2. Blow Away The Rainy Season! Officially Licensed Umbrella Only Death Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Ilusion defeated Yuni & Kazuma Sumi when Ilusion pinned Yuni with the Swanton Bomb on the Umbrellas (9:56).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ In The RING Rules: Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida defeated Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Shin Suzuki when Higuchi threw Masada Into The Ring (12:53).
4. K(ANON)-1 GP 2025: Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda defeated KANON when Honda made KANON laugh with the Anton Punch (0:43).
4a. Rematch: Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda defeated KANON by TKO when Honda made KANON laugh with the Anton Takashika Beam (9:52).
5. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & Shinya Aoki defeated MAO & Danshoku Dieno (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Akiyama pinned Dieno with a Jackknife Pin (11:02).
6. Akito Nishigaki, Yukio Naya & Daichi Dekatsumata (Daichi Sato) defeated Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y when Nishigaki pinned Katsumata with a School Boy (17:51).

The card layout for the show was odd enough that even a few wrestlers called it out. Akito complained to Hisaya Imabayashi at the start of the show about how the main event had no theme to it and seemed to be rather plain to close out the show. Imabayashi explained it’s fine to have a normal, good match for a main event so everyone can show off their skills. However Akito is still riding on a high from Monday’s Korakuen Hall show and can’t just do a regular match. So thinking on his feet Imabayashi came up with some ideas. He gave Akito a debuting rookie gimmick, Yukio Naya was now a luchador and Daichi Sato had to become an idol as if he was part of NωA Jr. Their opponents were also transformed from The 37KAMIINA into a heel team called Sauna Of Torture.

When it was time for the main event Akito ran down in plain black trunks and was introduced as Akito Nishigaki. Sato took part in a NωA Jr. entrance with Yuni & Kazuma Sumi as Daichi Dekatsumata. Naya looked like he always does but allegedly did lucha moves. That’s if you count a Swinging DDT, Double Brainbuster and a Stunner as lucha moves. As for Sauna Of Torture they wrestled exactly like the heels you’d expect them to copy. They acted rude, they brought out chairs, Shunma Katsumata pulled out a gun, you know the usual heel stuff. They cheated so much that NωA Jr. came to Sato’s rescue and helped Akito pin Katsumata to win his “debut” match. Akito admitted that this is the most embarrassed he’s ever been in front of people. He is even more nervous than when he wrestled in front of tens of thousands at Saitama Super Arena. He blamed Imabayashi for this but the GM told him the match was great and DDT now has a promising newcomer who will carry the future on his shoulders. Sauna Of Torture returned back to their normal selves and apologised to the audience for being rude to them.

After the show To-y talked about getting a DDT Extreme Title match against Super Sasadango Machine on 15th June. This lucky chance has come his way because he’s been acting crazy lately so he believes he needs to get any crazier to win the belt! He then grabbed the iPhone filming him and ran off screaming.

Danshoku Dieno thought he got the upper hand on Jun Akiyama by giving him the Exploder Suplex to set up the Danshoku Driver. However Akiyama countered the move with a Jackknife Pin while his head was still stuck in Dieno’s tights. That might have given him some extra leverage to get the three count.

The goal for Match #4 was for Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda to make KANON laugh. They succeeded very quickly so they had to do a rematch with some extra rules. KANON would start the match with five points and he would lose a point whenever he laughed. If he could beat the other team clean or survive 10 minutes without losing all of his points he would be the winner. He almost made it to the time limit until Honda left the ring, returned wearing Yuya Koroku’s wrestling gear and started dancing while Hirata forced KANON to look. KANON couldn’t help but laugh and lose his last point.

Everyone in Match #3 did Battle Royal tease spots on the ring apron to try and get each other into the ring rather than out of it. The rubber band spot was done with Bunbun and Yukinori Matsui but backfired in such a way that it knocked Matsui out. That led to everyone fighting in the ring only to all get out right when Matsui regained consciousness. Kazusada Higuchi was then able to vault Takeshi Masada over the top rope and into the ring to win the match for his team. Chris Brookes wanted to give Masada the Praying Mantis Bomb after the match for screwing up but Matsui stopped him.

Umbrellas were hung from the ropes lighttube style for Match #2. Everyone did various weapon spots with the umbrellas too such as opening them up and slamming each other onto them. Yuni in particular got violent using them so Daisuke Sasaki tried to bribe him with money. It was all a distraction so Ilusion could Low Blow Yuni from behind. He then laid Yuni on top of a bunch of umbrellas and did the Swanton Bomb onto him for the win.
