Also on the show are Shiro Koshinaka and Aja Kong as special guests.

Back in March former Dragon Gate wrestler Kotoka reemerged after a multiple year long absence away from the ring to be a part of Kazuki Hirata’s 15th Anniversary show. Then he sort of disappeared again but now he’s back to wrestle on a Super Japan show. Wrestling hasn’t been his priority in years because he has a career managing many, many gyms across Tokyo and Osaka (he currently has 24 gyms according to his Instagram account) so he is now going to use the name Gym Leader Kotoka, at least for this match. Kotoka will be part of a “Dragon Gene” tag team with Mac Matsushita to take on the super indie tag team of monk wrestler Fuminori Abe and Filipino wrestler Bryan Ishizaka.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’25”, 18/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Yuna Manase & Toga
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Aino

It’s all new champions across Tokyo Joshi Pro and two of them have defences lined up for the October Korakuen Hall show. Miu Watanabe is putting the newly won Princess Of Princess Title on the line against Yuki Aino in order to see how much passion Aino can bring to the match.

Yuna Manase & Toga were already the next challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles and now they will face Ober Eats instead of Kyoraku Kyomei. The dynamic to watch out for here is how Yuki Kamifuku and Yuna Manase will fight each other. They used to team together as Cat’s Pye and one of Kamifuku’s failed attempts to win the tag titles came from that team.

Both shows will have around 4 or 5 matches each.

2. MAO & KANON defeated Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi when KANON pinned Sumi with the LONELY DEZIRES (9:32).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Shinya Aoki defeated Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul when Ueno submitted Ilusion with the Blackout Sleeper (13:22).

6. Special Tag Team Match: Danshoku Dieno & Akito defeated Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda when Akito submitted Honda with the Ankle Hold (0:15).
6a. Rematch: Danshoku Dieno & Akito defeated Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda when Akito submitted Honda with the Ankle Hold (0:22).
6b. Rematch: Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda defeated Danshoku Dieno & Akito when Hirata pinned Akito with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (13:41).

Fans were treated to a lightning fast main event when Akito immediately submitted Kazuki Hirata with an Ankle Lock. Everyone agreed to a rematch only for the restart to go the exact same way. One more rematch went ahead and Hirata was this time able to survive the opening seconds of the bout. But Akito eventually got him back in the Ankle Lock and Hirata was on the verge of defeat yet again. However different DDT wrestlers climbed onto the apron one by one to give their support to Hirata and motivate him into escaping the hold. It helped that he was able to put on the Hirata GO! glasse to power himself up. With all of the extra support Hirata was able to grab Akito into the Miracle One Shot Cradle to finally win the main event. After the match Hirata told the fans he lost twice today but he is still the KO-D Openweight Champion!

When Yukio Naya beat Yuya Koroku, he told him to think more about how he and To-y can take the KO-D Tag Team Titles from The Apex on Wednesday. Yuki Iino and To-y then had a standoff with each other in the ring. Earlier in the show Naya approached Hirata with the intention of cashing in his Right To Challenge Arm Cover but Hirata came up with enough excuses to make him change his mind.

An extra team has been added to the Gauntlet Tag Match. The Apex were feeling left out and want a piece of the action.

Daisuke Sasaki did an interview with Tokyo Sports to promote the show and said he wants the show to sell out. So if El Desperado ends up losing the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title to YOH later this month, Sasaki is going to kick Despy off the card and bring in YOH as his replacement. He also originally wanted to book Los Tranquilos de Japon but didn’t know where to contact Tetsuya Naito or BUSHI. He even asked Tokyo Sports if they had Naito’s contact details.

A knee injury has prevented Jada Stone from travelling to Japan so she is no longer able to appear at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. A new opponent is needed for Arisu Endo so she will now face Priscilla Kelly in the match with the vacant International Princess Title on the line. Pom Harajuku has been taken out of the Battle Royal to become Rika Tatsumi’s new opponent. That match will also have special rules applied which will be announced as soon as they are determined.

I don’t know if I can get a preview of the show completed before Saturday. I’ve been feeling under the weather lately which stopped me from writing one. One might be posted on Friday night but don’t take that as a promise.

The full card for “CHARISMANIAxMANIAxMANIA” has been revealed although the match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet. Naohiro Katsumi and To-y both get added to the Togo Family Vs DDT Match, a Gauntlet Tag match dedicated to the still alive Daisuke Sasaki will fill up most of the show. Yasutaka Oosera from Michinoku Pro is teaming up with Ilusion which makes me wonder what the connection is there. We also have the return of Sumicaras in there too.

0. Exhibition Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Munenori Sawa
1. Special Tag Match: Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku Vs Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono
2. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Shinya Aoki

So what unusual match making is Super Japan coming up with this time? How about pairing Suwama and Yuki Kamifuku together because they are both from Fujiwara City? Cool, now what if they go against Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono the two wrestlers who get up to nutty things whenever they are left to their own devices? Kamifuku and Kuroshio have wrestled each other before (and Kamifuku has a win over Kuroshio) but Suwama and Hanazono taking each other on sounds like something new.


DDT “KIRANAH BBQ ROJO PRO WRESTLING 2025” Results

September 17, 2025

DDT “KIRANAH BBQ ROJO PRO WRESTLING 2025 ~ MEAT! BEER! HARVEST FESTIVAL!~”, 17/09/2025
Tokyo Kiranah Garden Toyosu
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Falls Count Anywhere 6 Way Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata, Yukio Naya & Yuya Koroku, Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada, Yuki Ueno & Kazuma Sumi and Chihiro Hashimoto & Yuu when MAO pinned Sumi with the Cannonball 450 onto the Pool (4:57).

It was a busy evening at the BBQ site as DDT brought together six tag teams for a Falls Count Anywhere free for all. But first before the match could begin DDT held a press conference for the upcoming KO-D Openweight Title match. Kazuki Hirata was in attendance but staff told him that Yoshihiko was not in the area. A decision was made to delay the press conference until Yoshihiko showed up so everyone went ahead with doing the match.

Midway through the match during all of the chaos and brawling, Kazuki Hirata ended up being the last one standing. He wanted to dance in celebration but his music was cut off by the sudden arrival of Yoshihiko! The match was paused so the two of them could hold their press conference and sign the title match contract. Yoshihiko did not comment but Hirata told it to fully recover from its injuries and bulk up in size if it wants any chance of winning the KO-D Title. Then during the photo session, Yoshihiko attacked Hirata and gave him the Reincarnation onto a bunch of chairs. With that the match continued and everyone went back to brawling.

The fighting moved over to a pool area where Yukio Naya was pushed into the water by Chihiro Hashimoto & Yuu. He then had both members of Team 200kg jump onto him to try and pin him in the water. Naya got his own back by throwing Kazuma Sumi onto everyone else in the pool. Danshoku Dieno grabbed Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada by their heads and made them give each other the Lip Lock while Team 200kg gave Yuya Koroku a Double Suplex into the water. MAO & KANON got their hands on Sumi and threw him onto an inflatable pool that was floating on the water. MAO then hit a Cannonball 450 into the pool to pin Sumi for the victory. The night ended with Hirata and Strange Love Connection all dancing together while everyone else enjoyed their remaining time at the BBQ.

Even though Naya and Yuki Ueno both went into the match carrying the remaining Right To Challenge Arm Covers, Hirata believed neither of them wanted to cash them in today because they have good manners.

There was an expectation from Tokyo Joshi Pro that someone will want to be added to the Battle Royal and their suspicion was proved correct. Ram Kaichow is entering the match and TJPW is also anticipating she will together a plan to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title before the match even begins, just like the last time she was here.

6. Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when MAO submitted Koroku with the Modified Just Face Lock (19:54).

Part two of the Sapporo challenge between Kazuki Hirata and Akito took place today. At the start of the show Hirata cooled down any attempt by Akito to cash in his Right To Challenge Arm Cover by telling him the snack bar was busy and needed his help. Also neither of them were dressed to wrestle by this point so the setting wasn’t right to suddenly have a KO-D Openweight Title cash in. When it was time for their match to begin Akito already had a commanding lead and increased it even further. With no risk of losing in the time remaining, Akito brought out a roll of masking tape and trapped Hirata to the ropes. With no escape and nobody coming to rescue Hirata, Akito was finally able to cash in his Arm Cover and get his KO-D Title shot right now!

Hirata was freed and the match was changed into a title bout. Hirata pulled off the upset by countering a Figure 4 Leg Lock into the Miracle One Shot Cradle for the pinfall out of nowhere. Due to the unusual circumstances, Akito had won the series fourteen points to one but because of the timing of the cash in only the final fall counted towards the KO-D Title. That means even though Akito won the series, he lost the title match and Hirata remains the champion! Hirata also now officially has a proper title defence under his belt for this reign. Akito accepted the result because he learned that although Hirata has not gotten any stronger since becoming the champ, he now has something he wants to protect to the best of his abilities. Akito can respect that.

KIMIHIRO wasn’t present for the Sapporo doubleshot which put Strange Love Connection in trouble on the second day. MAO & KANON won in the main event and had to give the show closing speech. Without KIMIHIRO there to do the talking for them, they struggled. However there were able to convince some fans to enter the ring and celebrate the win while MAO announced DDT would come back to Sapporo next year for Golden Week.

7. DDT Extreme Title – Stop The Annoying Streamers!! Unicast Death Match!: To-y (c) defeated Ilusion with the Kojima Impact (16:32).
*V3 for To-y.

Since Ilusion has become such an annoying streamer lately, To-y decided to use the concept for their DDT Extreme Title Match. Both wrestlers decided to film themselves live by using Wrestle Universe’s Universe Cast feature and the goal was to either beat the opponent on-stream or find a way to switch the opponent’s stream off! Yukinori Matsui had to inspect the phones constantly to make sure the streams were still live but he ended up getting flattened by To-y’s Diving Cross Body after Ilusion pulled him into the way. Ilusion and MJ Paul then attacked To-y so the rest of the D GENERATIONS wrestlers ran down to the ring with phones in their hands to harass Ilusion by filming him up close. Ilusion lost his cool from the distraction and became so flustered he missed the Swanton Bomb. He then smashed a chair over To-y’s head but that only psyched To-y up into giving him the Kojima Impact for the victory. To-y thanked the others after the match and told fans his goal now is to be the DDT Extreme Champion going into Sumo Hall on 3rd November. This is because he wants to defend the title against the person who most symbolises the championship. Meanwhile Ilusion swore to never use Wrestle Universe again and will film his matches for Youtube from now on.

Are we now in a place where Yuki Ueno can give Kazuki Hirata a taste of his own medicine? Ueno defeated Hideki Okatani to win his Right To Challenge Arm Cover. He used the Blackout Sleeper to win although Okatani passed out rather than gave up. Okatani backstage blamed Hirata for this because Hirata keeps running away from the wrestlers trying to cash in their title shots. It delayed Okatani from cashing in his prize long enough for him not to have it anymore!

Akito is one of the wrestlers who really wants to cash in his shot but Hirata keeps convincing him not to. Today’s excuse is the two of them have singles matches against each other today and tomorrow so it would make more sense for Akito to use his title shot tomorrow. The rules for the two matches are the points from all the pinfalls will be added together and whoever has the higher total score after tomorrow will be the winner. Akito won it easily scoring seven points to zero despite Hirata’s attempts to make it look like Akito strangled him unconscious using the KO-D Openweight Title to reduce his opponent’s score. When the 10 minute time limit expired, Akito tried to cash in again but Hirata suddenly announced he is holding a photograph session which means the merch table will be understaffed if Akito continued to wrestle. Akito didn’t want that to happen so he decided to hold off on the title shot until tomorrow.
