The two teams that got forfeit wins in the Ultimate Tag League now face each other. This is also DAMNATION T.A’s last match in their group. If Pheromones win then they might be able to qualify for the final with one match still in hand.

It was confirmed by DDT earlier today that Chris Brookes had tested positive for covid while he was out with a fever. However he has since recovered and is expected to be back at this Sunday’s show in Chiba.

I’m not going to worry about who needs to do what to qualify for the final until the matches on the shows above have taken place.

The Saki Akai Vs Maya Yukihi rivalry is getting even more dangerous with the additions of Yukio Sakaguchi and Sanshiro Takagi. If the boss of DDT and CyberFight decides to team with you then take the hint Yukihi!

Lingling, the current reigning and defending Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion will be at the show. She will be there even if she loses the title to someone else beforehand.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2022 ~DDT 25TH ANNIVERSARY~”, 20/03/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. LiLiCo Retirement Match: LiLiCo, Ryohei Odai & Akito (w/ Junretsu) Vs Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari
2. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Kazuki Hirata & Yoshihiko (c) Vs Poison Sawada JULIE, Takashi Sasaki, GENTARO, MIKAMI & Tanomusaku Toba (w/ Naomi Susan)

4. Special Single Match: Saki Akai Vs Maya Yukihi
5. DDT 25th Anniversary Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Michael Nakazawa
6. DDT Universal Title – Hardcore 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Jun Kasai Vs MAO
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo

When Jun Kasai came back to DDT last week, he was looking for an opponent that could excite him. In the end he thinks Daisuke Sasaki is the only one who can do that. They had a Hardcore Match in Saitama Super Arena five years ago that Sasaki won. Kasai thinks it is time for a rematch. There is one problem though. MAO has pestered Sasaki non-stop to get the next shot at the DDT Universal Title and the champion finally agreed to it. The solution is to have all three fight each other at the same time!

Jun Akiyama is celebrating his 30th anniversary in wrestling this year. To celebrate, he is reuniting Burning Wild with Takao Omori for a special tag match. DDT contacted All Japan and got their permission to make this match happen. Their opponents have not been chosen yet.

DDT “DAY DREAM BELIEVER 2022”, 27/03/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Jun Akiyama Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. DDT Extreme Title: Yuki “Sexy” Iino (c) Vs Shunma Katsumata

The DDT Extreme Title now belongs to Yuki Iino. Who knows what perverted match ideas he and Pheromones will come up with. All we know is he really wants Shunma Katsumata to be his first challenger. Katsumata reluctantly accepts the match. He is also getting suspicious that the GM Hisaya Imabayashi is secretly the mastermind of Pheromones because he never really punishes them for their “public executions” even when he is often the victim.

That’s not all Akiyama has planned for March. He fought Kazuki Hirata in the Ultimate Tag League and is convinced Hirata wants to fight him one on one. Things couldn’t be any further from the truth. Hirata is intimidated as hell by that idea. Too bad for him because the match is going to happen anyway!
