DDT “DNA 9” Results

September 22, 2015

DDT “DNA 9”, 22/09/2015
Shinjuku FACE
388 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Kouki Iwasaki defeated Dai Suzuki with a Capture Suplex (7:58).
2. Joey Ryan defeated Suguru Miyatake with the Super Kick (6:57).
3. Mao Inoue defeated Shunma Katsumata with the 450 Splash (9:48).
4. Shinjiro Otani defeated Mizuki Watase with a Half Crab (15:03).
5. Ryota Nakatsu defeated Kota Umeda with a German Suplex (14:28).
6. Katsuhiko Nakajima defeated Kazusada Higuchi with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (16:00).

Katsuhiko Nakajima offered to team up with Kazusada Higuchi for a match sometime in the future. Higuchi was flattered by the offer and said it’s an interesting idea. The team up might happen on the 12th October DNA show in Kitazawa. Yukio Sakaguchi is also scheduled to compete.

There was mixed fortunes for the two new rookies. Mao Inoue got an upset victory over Shunma Katsumata. Despite being smaller, Katsumata should have had the benefit of experience on his side. Instead Inoue had the Swan Dive X Factor scouted and blocked the move with a Dropkick. He then hit the 450 Splash to end it.

Mizuki Watase on the other hand was taken to school by the visiting Shinjiro Otani. Almost literally in fact. Otani submitted Watase with a Half Crab and told him to look up the move on page 279 in his wrestling textbook.

Another new rookie was introduced on the show. Daiki Shimomura is a high school student who wrestles for the nkw micro indie. His debut is set for 12th October.

6. 4 Way Tag Team Match: Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi Vs Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs HARASHIMA & Akito

If Danshoku Dino can beat Shigehiro Irie, it will help #OhkaEmpire’s chances of getting a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title shot.

KAT-TOO have been working well as a team so far. They face tournament bound KUDO & Kota Umeda.

Normally Gota Ihashi would be in the Pigging 2015 team but he’s locked out of the show because of he is the King Of Dark Champion. Saki Akai has to take his place.

DDT “OSAKA BAY BLUES SPECIAL 2015”, 13/09/2015
Osaka Prefectural Gymnasium #2

1. Strife Love-Hate Drama Wash Blood With Blood Final Settlement: Masa Takanashi Vs Hiroshi Fukuda

I don’t know what the grudge is between Masa Takanashi and Hiroshi Fukuda but it gets settled in Osaka.

UNION “UNION HARVEST FESTIVAL 2015”, 15/09/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Union Fly To Everywhere World Title: Aoi Kizuki (c) Vs Cherry

1. Animal Planet Special 3 Way Match: J-Soul Pandita III IV Vs Neko Nitta Vs Kris Wolf

4. Texas Tornado Special Handicap Match: Ken Ohka, GENTARO, Shota & Bambi Vs Minoru Fujita, Hi69 & Osamu Namiguchi

The main event features a mixture of alliances between Ganbare☆Wrestling and K-DOJO wrestlers. A grudge between Ken Ohka and Minoru Fujita is the focus but there is also the surprise return of Shota. There are also the shocks of Osamu Namiguchi siding with Fujita and Bambi siding with Ohka.

UNION “10TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 04/10/2015
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa

The final match in Union should obviously be between the two aces fighting over the championship. Isami Kodaka requested Shuji Ishikawa to be his next and possibly last challenger for the Union MAX Title.

8. Dramatic Dream Match: HARASHIMA Vs Hiroshi Tanahashi

A full preview will be up around the week of the show. Next Thursday sounds like a good target for me.

The winner of the main event also gets a ¥2,000,000 cash prize from the match sponsor.

Some details have emerged for the two rookies making their debut in the opener. Mao Inoue is from Osaki City in Miyagi and was born 28th January, 1997. He is 177cm high and weighs 80kg. He trained in Judo but also filmed his own pro wrestling matches while in junior high school and posted them to Youtube. The videos caught the attention of Sanshiro Takagi which eventually brought him here. Inoue’s immediate goal is to take advantage of his jumping ability. Mizuki Watase is from Yamanouchi, Nagano and was born on 6th February, 1991. His athletic history includes baseball, swimming and basketball. He is part of the comedy group Tenori Tiger. It has been his dream since a child to be a pro wrestler and his goal is to become a champion.

5. Ganbare☆Wrestling Vs Enjo-gun General Warfare: Ken Ohka Vs Shibata

The uneasy alliance between Osamu Namiguchi and Tigger Bedscene will get tested when the two face each other. Will this just be a shot for Bedscene to earn Namiguchi’s respect or could the partnership turn ugly?

UNION “SUMMER FESTIVAL UNION 2015”, 30/08/2015
Shinjuku FACE

1. Mio Shirai Vs Jun Kasai
2. Shuji Ishikawa & Daichi Kazato Vs Go Shiozaki & Kotaro Suzuki
3. Union MAX Title: FUMA (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

Union gets a visit from All Japan for an inter-promotional tag team match. Shuji Ishikawa has made a few appearances in AJPW this year and even threw out a challenge to Akebono for a Triple Crown Title match. He could send a loud message if he and Daichi Kazato can beat the visiting team of Go Shiozaki & Kotaro Suzuki.

Look, it’s neat and all for somebody to go all out while they still can before retirement but will somebody tell Mio Shirai to stop getting into matches with psychopaths?

Masako Takanashi will also be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOU GROW UP”, 22/09/2015

The match restarted and Higuchi overpowered Katsumata’s Cradle attempt to pin him. In the semi final Higuchi fought off a spirited attack from Kota Umeda. Meanwhile Ryota Nakatsu made quick work of Suguru Miyatake, beating him in 20 seconds. Despite the disadvantage of wrestling longer matches on the way to the final, Higuchi was able to beat Nakatsu and win the tournament. His prize is 100,000 yen and and a match against Katsuhiko Nakajima in the main event of “DNA 9” on 22nd September.

Two new students were introduced to the crowd. Mizuki Watase is the comedian who signed with DDT earlier this year. Mao Inoue was a high school backyard wrestler. Sanshiro Takagi surprised them with the announcement that they will have their debut match at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2015”! They will team with Kota Umeda against Yasu Urano, Akito & Ryota Nakatsu. Watase said he has dreamt of being a wrestler since elementary school. Inoue apologised to his parents but said he was grateful for them and his teachers for letting him take the path of a pro wrestler.

The Glass Is Half Full, Partial Beer Garden Cards

July 28, 2015

The DDT summer tradition is here! Beer Garden Week is a week long series of shows held every year in Shin-kiba 1st Ring. Each show is produced and booked by a different wrestler or stable in DDT. This leads to a variety of crazy matches and ideas. There is also plenty of beer and food served to the fans during the show. So let’s have a look at what’s on offer this year.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~DDT DAY~”, 01/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Suguru Miyatake
2. Antonio Honda & Konosuke Takeshita Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Shunma Katsumata
3. KUDO Vs Kota Umeda
4. Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Soma Takao
5. New Ghost Story Numabukuro Death Match: HARASHIMA & Akito Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie Vs Danshoku Dino & Saki Akai
6. DDT Extreme Title Next Challenger Final: Yasu Urano Vs Makoto Oishi vs Masa Takanashi Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Hiroshi Fukuda

One of the highlights of Beer Garden every year is Hisaya Imabayashi visiting the area to tell ghost stories to the wrestlers. Last year had a few duds due to tiredness so here’s hoping this year will bring plenty of scares.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~DNA DAY~”, 02/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Wrestling Koshien 2015 – Round 1: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Shunma Katsumata
2. Wrestling Koshien 2015 – Round 1: X Vs X
3. Wrestling Koshien 2015 – Semi Final: X Vs X
4. Wrestling Koshien 2015 – Semi Final: X Vs X
5. Wrestling Koshien 2015 – Final: X Vs X

A 6-man mini tournament is being held and the winner will be added to the evening DDT show. The entrants are Kazusada Higuchi, Shunma Katsumata, Suguru Miyatake, Ryota Nakatsu, Kota Umeda, Kouki Iwasaki and Dai Suzuki. Two of the wrestlers will receive byes to the semi finals.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~DDT DAY~”, 02/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Wrestling Koshien 2015 Winner Vs X

Drink every time X = Shiori Asahi.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~TEAM DRIFT DAY~”, 03/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Shigehiro Irie Produce Match: X Vs Gota Ihashi
2. Hardcore 4 Way Match: Shigehiro Irie Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Yuko Miyamoto Vs Gabaiji-chan

According to the DDT website this show will involve a Round Girl named Chelsea. I assume this is the Stardom wrestler. I also assume she will be involved with whatever gives Gota Ihashi a concussion that day.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~T2HIDE DAY – WORLD LUCHA EXPO JAPAN~”, 04/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Exercise & Stretch DVD Launch – All Out Stretch War: Kazuki Hirata (Yoyogi-Uehara) Vs Seiya Morohashi (Kasiwa)

4. Lucha Extremadura Jasu: Sanshiro Takagi (Osaka), Toru Owashi (Nagano) & Kazuki Hirata (Yoyogi-Uehara) Vs X, X & X

T2Hide is bringing a lot of international flavour to this year’s Beer Garden. We got some old “gaijin” returning like Louis Takanashi XIV from France (with his Death Cake no doubt) and Italy’s own Sasaki And Gabbana.

Kazuki Hirata has his own fitness DVD now available on DDT’s online store. But this has created a conflict with another fitness enthusiast, Seiya Morohashi. The go to battle on the day the DVD is launched.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~SMILE SQUASH DAY~”, 05/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Grand Sumo Summer Tournament: X Vs X
2. Danshoku Dino (w/ Makoto Oishi) Vs Kota Umeda (w/ Kazusada Higuchi)
3. HARASHIMA & Akito Vs Yasu Urano & X

Will Tomomitsu Matsunaga be back to defend his DDT Sumo King crown?

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~HAPPY MOTELS DAY~”, 06/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Konosuke Takeshita Vs Hiroshi Fukuda
2. Antonio Honda Vs Transparent Mel Gibson

Match #2 sounds like the greatest thing ever.

3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: X Vs X

The 2nd Tokyo Princess is about to be crowned.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~DANSHOKU DINO & SUPER SASADANGO MACHINE DAY~”, 08/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. The World’s Most Powerful Cultural Heaven Olympics – Round 1: Sambo Oishi Vs Gota Ihashi
2. The World’s Most Powerful Cultural Heaven Olympics – Round 1: Masa Takanashi Vs Yuko Miyamoto
3. The Lamentations Of The 40 Year Old Wrestler – Enter Sandman Falls Count Anywhere Match: Super Sasadango Machine Vs KUDO Vs Seiya Morohashi Vs Antonio Honda
4. Turn Based Wrestling ~Endless Gig~: Danshoku Dino Vs Ken Ohka

Songs by Tomoyasu Hotei and B’z will alternate during the main event. Danshoku Dino can only win during Hoeti songs while Ken Ohka can only win during B’z songs.

Some weird “Mixed Martial Arts” competition takes place here, except each competitor represents a cultural art. Masa Takanashi represents Shogi writing, Yuko Miyamoto competes as a former student council president, Sambo Oishi fights for newspapers and Gota Ihashi has the backing of society’s pottery section.

DDT “BEER GARDEN FIGHT 2015 ~DDT DAY~”, 09/08/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING

1. Beer Garden Specialty! 6-Man Lottery Tag Match: KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi, HARASHIMA, Shigehiro Irie, Konosuke Takeshita, Kazusada Higuchi

As always a fan drawn 6-Man Tag draws the series to a close. The two teams will be determined by a lottery with each pick chosen by a random member of the audience. This is also the final show before “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2015”.

DDT “DNA 7” Results

July 2, 2015

DDT “DNA 7”, 01/07/2015
Kitazawa Town Hall
156 Fans

1. Kouki Iwasaki defeated Yoshihiro Horaguchi with a Double Arm Suplex (9:54).
2. Gabaiji-chan defeated Suguru Miyatake with the Gabaijigatame (9:56).
3. GENTARO defeated Dai Suzuki with a Back Drop (9:10).
4. Mineo Fujita defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Swanton Bomb (10:54).
5. Kengo Mashimo defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Mudo (12:34).
6. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Kota Umeda with the Goten (19:34).

Two days after his 20th birthday Kota Umeda got to fight in his second DNA main event in a row. However he faced Kazusada Higuchi who was looking to recover from his recent King Of DDT setback. Higuchi got the victory but praised the youngster for his effort. Higuchi then challenged Shunma Katsumata to a match at “DNA 8”. They were originally supposed to face each other at “DNA 5” in May but the match was called off when Higuchi suffered an injury.

Ryota Nakatsu got to experience the power of Kengo Mashimo’s kicks first hand. When asked to compare Mashimo with Higuchi, Nakatsu said Higuchi’s power comes from brute strength while Mashimo’s power comes from his lower body.

Suguru Miyatake said in an interview that his match with Gabaiji-chan brought back bad memories of his own grandfather. Mostly the time his grandfather had an affair with an aunt or something like that.
