12. KO-D Openweight Title – Good Com Asset Presents: Yuji Hino (c) Vs Chris Brookes
Chaos broke out at a rally event held by Akito, Soma Takao & Yoshitomo Shimohigashi to promote the show. Pheromones found out the location was at a store where the DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi works part-time. Imabayashi is currently subcontracted to DDT instead of being a full time employee, so he got a part-time job here to make up for his drop in salary. When Pheromones crashed the event and started causing trouble with Akito’s team they ended up dragging a bystander into the situation. That person turned out to be Buchigire Ujihara, a comedian and Youtuber who is friends with Shimohigashi. Imabayashi found out who he was and started complaining it’s unfair that he has to work these low paying part-time jobs while Ujihara gets rich by acting a fool on Youtube. Since Imabayashi is not fully employed by DDT, he no longer sees the point in opposing Pheromones. Instead he is going to be on their side at Sumo Hall under the name Hisaya Kachikire. In response to this Ujihara agreed to be in the corner of Akito’s team for the match.

1. Special Single Match: Ken Ohka Vs Koji Doi
2. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada (c) Vs Hartley Jackson & HARUKAZE
3. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs YuuRI
It’s been a weekend to remember for YuuRI. She settled a score with Misa Kagura going back to their JTO beginnings, won the main championship of Ice Ribbon the next day and is now challenging Isami Kodaka in a bid to rescue the Spirit Of Ganbare Title! This isn’t the kind of match Kodaka was expecting to get involved in after taking Ganbare☆Pro’s singles belt but he is still intrigued by the challenge.
GanPro’s first attempt and defending themselves against DoiKuma did not go the way they wanted it to. Ken Ohka was beaten but still wants to fight Kuma Arashi to get his revenge. Arashi is not interested in facing Ohka one on one and has plans elsewhere to worry about. Koji Doi however is interested in fighting Ohka by himself while Arashi is busy.
GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO BATTLE GAREGGA ’23”, 11/08/2023
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
1. ICEx∞ Title: YuuRI (c) Vs Ami Manase
The ICEx∞ Title is the name of the championship YuuRI won in Ice Ribbon. Her title win is significant because she is only two years and eight months into her wrestling career. The only person to have won that title with less experience at the time was Suzu Suzuki at one year and eight months. YuuRI decided her first title defence will be at the next Ganbare☆Joshi show. She picked Ami Manase to be her opponent because they haven’t fought each other in GanJo yet.

6. Fukushima Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Gorgeous Matsuno, HARASHIMA & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda when Matsuno pinned Honda with the Gorgeous Superstar Elbow (19:44).
At 62 years old Gorgeous Matsuno’s wrestling career has somehow just as fruitful as ever. This year he got to wrestle in All Japan for the first time and footage of his attempts to do the Gorgeous Superstar Elbow have gone viral on TikTok. Yet going into today’s show he was wondering if it was time to finally call an end to his wrestling career and make this show the final “GORGEOUS NIGHT”. Instead after winning the main event with his finisher he decided to postpone any retirement plans while he is still able to go in the ring. His partner Junko Tashiro encouraged him to keep doing his best until he dies. The two sang a duet together in the ring to end the show.
Just when Chris Brookes felt he was building up momentum, Yuji Hino send him crashing down to Earth with today’s result. The dreaded Fuckin’ BOMB led to Hino pinning Brookes and he warns he will do that move 100 times at the KO-D Openweight Title match on 23rd July! Brookes admits he may have come back from injury too early. He said his shoulder was at 90% but really he thinks it is at 70%. However, Brookes thinks it is his destiny to win the KO-D Title and will work hard every day until “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023”!
Matsuno gifted Saki Akai with a bouquet of flowers before her match to commemorate her 10 years in wrestling.

DDT “ROAD TO PETER PAN 2023 IN AOMORI”, 15/07/2023
Aomori Hamanasu Hall
164 Fans
1. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Yusuke Okada & Yuni when Hirata pinned Yuni with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (10:21).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Akito and Antonio Honda when Iino pinned Honda with the Ketsugoye (7:11).
3. Special Single Match: Yuki Ishida defeated Yukio Sakaguchi by Countout (9:07).
4. Falls Count Anywhere Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku defeated HARASHIMA, Hideki Okatani & Kazuma Sumi when Akiyama submitted Sumi with the Front Neck Lock (14:50).
5. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & KANON defeated Yuki Ueno, Toy Kojima & Takeshi Masada when KANON submitted Masada with the Arm-Assisted Cobra Twist (14:09).
6. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yuji Hino & Makoto Oishi when Brookes pinned Oishi with the Praying Mantis Bomb (14:22).
After weeks and weeks of Yuji Hino taunting Chris Brookes, the tables were turned today. Brookes pinned Makoto Oishi in the main event, glady giving Hino the middle finger while Hino was being blocked from breaking it up by Kazusada Higuchi. Hino tried to save some face by telling Brookes he only beat Oishi, the kind of wrestler any ordinary human being can beat. If Brookes is happy with that then he should be prepared for their next tag match tomorrow. Brookes thinks Hino is just making excuses.
A wet day in Aomori played host to a Falls Count Anywhere match. BURNING and the team led by HARASHIMA quickly took their fight outside the venue where Jun Akiyama got angry at Kazuma Sumi for smearing mud over his face. Sumi also climbed on top of a rock and did a Moonsault onto everyone. Back indoors Akiyama & Yuya Koroku were both placed on trollies and pushed towards HARASHIMA & Sumi. They got out of the way causing Akiyama and Koroku to crash into each other instead. When BURNING had enough of the craziness, Tetsuya Endo hit the Burning Star Press on Hideki Okatani inside the ring while Akiyama submitted Sumi with the Front Neck Lock. Akiyama blamed Sanshiro Takagi for coming up with the idea of doing a Falls Count Anywhere match in this part of the country. Endo says Akito should also take responsibility because he is the company vice president. Koroku agreed and suggested BURNING should take on Takagi, Akito & Okatani next time.
Yuki Ishida was able to beat Yukio Sakaguchi in an upset by Countout. The two brought their fight out of the ring and kept at it as they made it back to the ring apron while the referee counted. Ishida was able to knock Sakaguchi back down to the floor with a Chop to the chest and roll back into the ring as the ref reached 20. Ishida credited the power of never giving up and said Harimao will not give up the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles to Eruption!

Shinichiro Kawamatsu is feeling really motivated for Monday’s match after he got a chance to have a video call with Hulk Hogan this week. Looking through his Twitter I think a dinner he had with Florida’s Commissioner of Agriculture set it all up. Kawamatsu wasn’t there to play hide the ball, dude.

While Sanshiro Takagi has been recovering from injury he had been tempting fate on Twitter, talking about how vulnerable he is while as the current Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Stuff like asking the wrestlers not to even think about Low Kicking his injured leg when they meet up for example. Nobody has taken advantage of his perdicament and he remains the champion at the moment.

6. Ken Ohka & Shota Vs Kuma Arashi & Koji Doi
There’s changes to the top end of the card after the events of yesterday. Kuma Arashi showed his true intentions when he betrayed Ken Ohka.

The duo known as DoiKuma want to take over GanPro and turn it into a successful company in their own way. Ohka is now teaming with Shota to protect their home promotion from this invasion.
HIROYA is from Gamshara Pro Wrestling in Kyushu, or GamPro for short.

7. Road To PETER PAN 2023! Special Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Makoto Oishi defeated Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi when Hino submitted Brookes with the King Kong Sleeper (10:43).
Today saw the return of Chris Brookes to the ring after spending over a month recovering from a dislocated shoulder. He only has a little over two weeks now to get into his best condition for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023”. The start of his “Champion’s Road” could not have gotten off to a rockier start when CDK took on Ω. Brookes showed some some threat to Yuji Hino by countering the Fuckin’ BOMB into an Octopus Stretch. But Hino powered his way out of the move and submitted Brookes with the King Kong Sleeper. Hino taunted Brookes after the match by pretending his opponent was an amateur making his debut today. Makoto Oishi had to remind him it’s his challenger for Sumo Hall. Backstage Brookes admitted he is lacking confidence but he will get it back and win the KO-D Openweight Title from Hino. A lot can change in two weeks.
After weeks and weeks of cheating and dirty fighting from Daisuke Sasaki towards Toy Kojima, their grudge match today went by mostly without incident. Sasaki was by himself and fought clean the entire match. Kojima almsot beat him with the Kojima In Wonderland but then missed a Totonou Splash. That allowed Sasaki to take over and submit him with the Crossface Lock. Sasaki then gave Kojima an offer to join DAMNATION T.A after the match! Kojima refused and left the ring.
Sasaki changed the subject by promising a big surprise for the fans in attendance. El Desperado’s music suddenly played but nobody came out. Sasaki then stopped the music and made fun of everyone for thinking he was going to invite him here. Desperado’s music then played again and this time he really did appear! He asked Sasaki what was going to be at stake for their match at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023”? Neither of them have any championships but the match sponsor will reward the winner with a year’s supply of tequila. That’s good enough for them! On 23rd July Sasaki and Desperado will fight not for championships, not for hair, not for masks and it will not be a No DQ Match. The two of them are just going to enjoy an intense fight against each other.
A big week is coming up for Nick Wayne. His official debut for AEW back in America was announced for next week but first he had to finish off his tour with DDT today. He lost to Yuki Ueno but left a good impression on his opponent. Ueno said in his post-match comments that Wayne’s potential is not his physcial ability but his love for pro wrestling. It’s on the same level as Brookes and Konosuke Takeshita and will take him wherever he wants to go. Wayne said he learned a lot from the wrestlers on this tour professionally, physically and mentally. He thinks being able to learn stuff like that right before his AEW debut will benefit him.
KANON got to celebrate the 4th Anniversary of his debut match by teaming with his mentor TAKA Michinoku. They defeated Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku with KANON submitting Koroku. Endo doesn’t mind the result because he got to hit the Sasuke Special on Michinoku. Apparantely that was all that mattered to him today because he didn’t care it was KANON’s anniversary. Michinoku will be back in DDT on 23rd July to face MAO so he feels like he is currently standing in the eye of a hurricane. He also hopes to be brought back for KANON’s 5th anniversay. KANON suggests maybe then they can fight each other for that occasion.
The boost of momentum Yuki Ishida has gotten against Eruption lately was brushed aside by Hideki Okatani. The Dosukoi Hold Ishida’s been using to be Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai did not work here and instead Okatani pinned him with a Running Elbow Butt. Sakaguchi asked Harimao after the match what is the point of “Dosukoi”? If they care that much about it they can go eat yakitori in Ryogoku and leave the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles to them. This attitude was in contrast to the start of the show when the two teams signed the contract for their title match at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2023”. During that Eruption said this is their last chance to win the 6-Man Tag Titles because of Akai’s retirement at the end of the year.
Kazuki Hirata would have lost his tag match several times over if it wasn’t for HARASHIMA running in to break the pin every time. Everything Jun Akiyama did to Hirata would have been a one hit kill otherwise. HARASHIMA kept his team in the game and scored the win over Yusuke Okada with the Somato. His performance today got Hirata to ask if HARASHIMA has any weaknesses at all? It’s becoming very difficult for Hirata to think of a stipulation that will give him any chance of beating HARASHIMA when their DDT Extreme Title match takes place on 30th July.
Akito was at ringside for the entrances in the opening match with the intention of ambushing Pheromones. His goal was to eliminate them before they could reach the ring so their match would be cancelled. Toru Owashi & Kazuma Sumi agreed to look the other way and let Akito go ahead with his plan. It didn’t work. Yuki Iino & Danshoku Dieno survived Akito’s ambush and gave him a face full of Iino’s backside in front of the fans. The match went ahead as usual until all of a sudden Yoshitomo Shimohigashi interfered! He knocked out Dieno with a Bowling Uppercut followed by the Kamigoye, allowing Sumi to pin Dieno for the first time. Akito said Shimohigashi and Soma Takao are part of his Pheromones Subjugation Squad and they are going to drive Pheromones out of Sumo Hall!
