DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN OYAMA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TOCHIOTOME~”, 16/03/2014
Oyama Municipal Cultural Centre Small Hall
226 Fans – No Vacancy

0. Exhibition Match: Kazuki Hirata defeated Shun Miyatake with an Elevated Crab Hold (7:29).
1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Lucha Libre Rules: Sanshiro Takagi (c) & Toru Owashi defeated Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki when Takagi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (8:58).
*V1 for Sanshiro Takagi.
2. Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Kota Ibushi & MIKAMI when Matsunaga pinned MIKAMI with a Ground Cobra Twist (8:53).
3. Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi whn Takao pinned Oishi with the Gin And Tonic (11:06).
4. Shigehiro Irie defeated Tetsuya Endo with the Beast Bomber (10:34).
5. KUDO, Masa Takanashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano & Akito when KUDO pinned Urano with the Backspin Kick (17:44).

The card got a minor reshuffle when Gota Ihashi suffered a sudden fever and had to be pulled off the show. MIKAMI took his place in the tag team match with Kota Ibushi against Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga. MIKAMI’s original opponent Kazuki Hirata got to face trainee Shun Miyatake in an exhibition bout. Amon Tsurumi was impressed with the trainee’s performance and told him he will have another exhibition match on the 21st March Korakuen Hall show.

Shigehiro Irie has added the Axe Bomber to his repertoire. He calls it the Beast Bomber.

A few days before their All Asia Tag Team Title match in All Japan, the Drift team of Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao faced Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi. Dino made fun of his opponents’ title match by saying it was a small match. Dino & Oishi announced they have a new double team move they call the Anal Dunk. They also claim to have championships that are more important than the All Asia belts. They have the Interim Eurasia Tag Team Championships! Ishii & Takao no sold their claim and attacked them to start the match. Dino & Oishi used the Anal Dunk, which involves Dino lying on his stomach with his rear end exposed and Oishi slamming the victim’s head into Dino’s ass. Ishii & Takao survived the Anal Dunk and were able to win the match. Dino & Oishi now allowed them to challenge for the All Asia Tag Titles.

Nakazawa & Matsunaga got the surprise win over Ibushi & MIKAMI. They requested for their match against the Golden Lovers on 21/3 to be for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Tsurumi begrudgingly made it so.

The Lucha Libre war between Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi and the Monster Army continues. This time Guanchulo’s friend Anarko Montaña got involved as the referee for the match. Both teams attempted to wrestle Llave style while yelling “Viva Mexico!” Takagi once again won with La Magistral Cradle.

KUDO, Masa Takanashi and Yukio Sakaguchi announced the name of their new unit. They are now called Shuten-dōji, named after a Japanese legend who had a thirst for sake. DJ Nira actually came up with the name while drunk. Unfortunately for them their first match under the new name ended in defeat. HARASHIMA and KUDO had a staredown after the match and both teams stepped in to seperate them.

For the last month Soma Takao has gotten the better of Danshoku Dino, highlighted by Takao pinning Dino to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as part of Team Drift. Dino was finally able to get one back and beat Takao in Singles action.

Sanshiro Takagi and Antonio Honda fought in an Infomercial Match that will be aired on Teletama next month. They had to promote Blackout Energy Drink by drinking cans of the product as they wrestled each other. Fans were also given signs advertising the drink to hold during the match. In a sight similar to Stone Cold’s beer bashes, Takagi made Honda spit out the drink with a Stunner and after the match celebrated by smashing cans together and pouring them into his mouth.

The night did not end there for Takagi. He also became the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. What makes it special is he became the 999th champion. Kazuki Hirata came to the show as champion but was attacked and pinned backstage by Daisuke Sasaki. Hirata came out at the start of the show demanding Sasaki give the belt back. The Battle Royal began and the belt changed hands from Sasaki to DJ Nira to Makoto Oishi and then back to Hirata who went on to win the match. Hirata reappeared later in the show to brag about winning back the title, even saying “If you smell what Hirata is cookin’!” Takagi snuck into the ring, grabbed the belt, struck Hirata with it and pinned him to win the title. Takagi said he wanted to be the 999th champion and will hold the title forever so nobody can become the 1000th champion!

Dick Togo made an appearance to announce he has moved to Vietnam and will open up a wrestling school there.

DDT “OSAKA NORTHERN STORY” Results

March 2, 2014

avalanche-piledriver

DDT “OSAKA NORTHERN STORY”, 02/03/2014
Osaka Umeda Nasci Hall
350 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Lucha Libre Rules: Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi defeated Kiai Ryuuken Ecchan & DJ Nira when Takagi pinned Nira with La Magistral Cradle (8:46).
2. MIKAMI defeated Akito with a Boomerang School Boy (9:35).
3. Michael & Matsunaga Tag Ordeal: Zeus & The Bodyguard defeated Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Zeus pinned Nakazawa after the Double Choke Slam (11:35).
4. Kota Ibushi defeated Gota Ihashi with an Avalanche Piledriver (9:58).
5. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki when Takeshita pinned Honda with a German Suplex (12:23).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao (c) defeated Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Sakaguchi when Irie pinned Oishi with the Flying Sausage (13:34).
*V1 for Team Dream Futures.
7. KUDO & Masa Takanashi defeated HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano when KUDO pinned HARASHIMA with a Buzzsaw Kick (14:41).

It’s been a bad weekend for HARASHIMA. First he loses the DDT Extreme Title to Danshoku Dino and then he gets pinned by his upcoming KO-D Openweight Title challenger KUDO. If that’s not enough, it looks like KUDO has left Ura-Shima-Kudo to side with Masa Takanashi. The two have bonded over their love of alcohol with Takanashi calling KUDO his big brother. Takanashi also invited Yukio Sakaguchi to join their new unit. At first it looked like Sakaguchi ignored them but then he returned with his own liquor bottle and joined them for a drink.

Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Sakaguchi teamed up and called themselves Sakaguchi Dojo. But when they failed to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles they immediately disbanded.

Konosuke Takeshita scored a big win over Antonio Honda in their tag team match. After the match Takeshita told the fans he will be entering a Tokyo university in April after living in Osaka for his entire life. He promises he will work out and return to Osaka as a huge sized wrestler.

Whenever Kota Ibushi and Gota Ihashi are in the ring together, Ibushi usually comes up with a bad idea. This time it was a 2nd Rope Piledriver!

Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga will get a match against the Golden Lovers on the 21st March Korakuen Hall show. However due to their losing streak the KO-D Tag Team Titles will not be on the line.

Yukinori Matsui announced details for his 20th Anniversary show in Osaka Bodymaker Colosseum #2 on 13th April. The show will feature Kushinbo Kamen Vs Kikutaro.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN HIROSHIMA ~ DRAMATIC DREAM TOUKASAN” Results

March 1, 2014

dino-oishi-three

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN HIROSHIMA ~ DRAMATIC DREAM TOUKASAN”, 01/03/2014
Hiroshima Industrial Hall West Exhibition Hall
340 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Keisuke Ishii defeated Gota Ihashi with the Fisherman Buster (6:54).
2. MIKAMI defeated Kenshin Konno with the Swanton Bomb (8:50).
3. Lucha Libre Rules: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Yuto Aijima defeated Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Rey Paroma when Takagi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (11:49).
4. 4 Way Match: Kota Ibushi defeated Yasu Urano, Michael Nakazawa and DJ Nira when Ibushi pinned Nakazawa with the Sit Down Last Ride (10:34).
5. Yukio Sakaguchi & Makoto Oishi defeated Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao when Sakaguchi submitted Takao with the Cobra Clutch (8:47).
6. KUDO, Masa Takanashi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Akito, Tetsuya Endo & Konosuke Takeshita when KUDO pinned Endo with the Diving Double Knee Drop (15:55).
7. DDT Extreme Title – New York Rules: Danshoku Dino defeated HARASHIMA (c) with a Kissing Pin (12:05).
*HARASHIMA fails in V5. Danshoku Dino becomes the 26th DDT Extreme Champion!

Very few men can beat Danshoku Dino in a kissing contest. HARASHIMA found that out the hard way. The two fought in a New York Rules match for the DDT Extreme Title. In order to win you had to kiss your opponent as you pin them for the entire three seconds. HARASHIMA trained as much as he could but when it came to actually kissing Dino in the match, he couldn’t find the courage to do it. This came to be his downfall as he had victory in his hands when he flattened Dino with the Somato. But when HARASHIMA finally had to courage to do the kiss, Dino had enough time to recover and roll the champion into a Kissing Small Package for the three count! Dino now holds the Extreme Title for the sixth time in the title’s history.

Masa Takanashi has a new diet to make himself strong. He will go around Japan drinking the best liquor the country has to offer and that will somehow help him become the KO-D Openweight Champion. Bottoms up.

Trouble just seem to have a habit of finding Yukio Sakaguchi lately. After spending a month getting in fights with KUDO, trouble now seems to be brewing between Sakaguchi and Shigehiro Irie. The two came close to blows after Sakaguchi submitted Soma Takao in their tag team match.

The ring truck parked inside the building was featured in the 4 Way Match. Kota Ibushi tried to reverse the truck over Michael Nakazawa and also Moonsaulted off the truck onto everyone else.

This time around it was Antonio Honda who requested for Lucha Libre rules against Sanshiro Takagi’s team. Unfortunately the Monster Army’s record in Lucha Libre continues to be poor as Takagi avoided the Diving Fist Drop and pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle. Toru Owashi told the fans afterwards that they will do more and more Lucha Libre matches around Japan. Viva Mexico!

Gota Ihashi replaced Guanchulo in the opener because of an injury Guanchulo suffered during training a few days ago.

7. HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano Vs KUDO & Masa Takanashi

The Homo-sapiens are no more but Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi have already found a replacement for Aja Kong. Enter Yukio Sakaguchi, fresh off of a defeat to KUDO. A title win here will be just what the doctor ordered to get him back on track.

Amon Tsurumi has been disappointed in the performances of Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga lately so they now have to face Zeus & The Bodyguard. How that is supposed to motivate them, I don’t know.

BOYZ “BOYZ DOLL FESTIVAL SPECIAL ~ONNA MATSURI 3~”, 04/03/2014

1. Soma Takao Vs Kazuki Hirata

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2014”, 21/03/2014
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Monster Army Disbanded Match: Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki, Hoshitango, Yuji Hino, X
2. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract Battle Royal: X Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs KUDO

My favourite match in DDT returns for its annual appearance. The Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract Battle Royal combines the Royal Rumble and the Money In The Bank to create something bonkers in the usual DDT manner. Last year their was four identical prizes, all KO-D Openweight Title matches but with the extra stipulation the the contracts could change hands like championships. Prizes from previous years have included contracts for promoting shows, winning romantic dates and even temporarily morphing into other wrestlers.

*V2 for The Golden Lovers.
7. KO-D Openweight Title Match: HARASHIMA (c) defeated Masa Takanashi with the Somato (19:08).
*V6 for HARASHIMA.

harashima-masa-somato

HARASHIMA just cannot be stopped, even though not many expected Masa Takanashi to stop him in the first place. Takanashi tried to do everything he could from playing possum to actually trying his best to win but in the end he fell to the Somato just like almost everyone else has during HARASHIMA’s KO-D Openweight Title reign. The next wrestler stepping up to the plate for a title shot is someone close to HARASHIMA, KUDO! HARASHIMA told KUDO he’s been waiting for him and gladly accepted the challenge for the next Korakuen Hall show on 21st March.

golden-lovers-pig

In a company filled with weirdness, it really takes a lot of effort to become the most bizarre challenge for a team like the Golden Lovers. Today that team appeared. The Brahman Brothers are infamous for their matches filled with foreign objects you would never expect to see in wrestling matches. The Brahmans made their entrance spitting water at everybody and soaked Tsurumi Amon with bottled tea. Throughout the match they used bamboo swords, a bucket of water, a chocolate cream cake, a bowling ball, a suitcase, pig feet and finally a decapitated pig’s head to try and defeat the KO-D Tag Team Champions. They also blinded the champions with black ink, Poison Mist style. But Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega later gave them a taste of their own medicine and spat the ink in the faces of the Brahmans. The PK Mind put an end to one of the messiest matches in DDT history.

kudo-sakaguchi

The grudge between KUDO and Yukio Sakaguchi was formed when the two would not stop fighting each other during their matches. They finally got a singles match between each other and needless to say, they kicked the crap out of each other! KUDO was the last man standing and got the win with a Backspin Kick.

takao-dino-tonic

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles switched hands as Team Dream Futures defeated The Homo-sapiens. The story of the match was whether or not Keisuke Ishii had the mental strength to resist the Lip Lock from Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Aja Kong. Even though Kong got to kiss Shigehiro Irie, she also got an accidental kiss from Dino when Soma Takao kicked them into each other. Soma went above and beyond to win by countering the Danshoku Driver into the Gin And Tonic and pinning Dino while his head was still in his tights. Keisuke Ishii was thrilled to be a 6-Man Tag Champion again because Drift were the first champions and they had not held the belts for 393 days. Oishi decided to dissolve The Homo-sapiens but also demanded that he, Dino and a new partner should get a rematch.

endo-nakazawa-twister

Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo got off on a great start for their 3 match series. The rookie team defeated Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga in an impressive display. After the match Endo said he and Takeshita were second to none. He then asked Tsurumi who their next opponents are going to be. Tsurumi admitted Nakazawa & Matsunaga were disappointing first choices and announced the rookie’s next match in Osaka on 2nd March will be against Zeus & The Bodyguard!

kakimoto-ironman

Daichi Kakimoto celebrated his final match for DDT by winning the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and then losing it afterwards. The Rumble match saw the belt change hands several times. Yasu Urano went in as champion but was pinned by Emi Sakura with the help of Gaunchulo and DJ Nira. Nira then betrayed Sakura to win the belt from her. Akito submitted Nira and then Kakimoto with the help of Guanchulo and Gota Ihashi won the belt from Akito. Kakimoto went on to win the match as champion and was given a farewell ceremony. Kakimoto said he felt 100 times stronger returning to the ring. Everyone celebrated until Kazuki Hirata suddenly gave Kakimoto a School Boy and ran off with the belt.

takagi-hoshitango-magistral

The opener was fought under Lucha Libre rules, which is becoming common for matches between Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi and the Monster Army. When the rules were announced Owashi got “T2P” chants. The Monster Army suffered another defeat and Antonio Honda was left frustrated. He told his team mates that after working so hard for a year and a half he now realises their goal of purchasing a tank is too great for them to achieve. Honda then announced the Monster Army’s last match will take place next month.

DDT “UP UP DDT ~ UP UP GIRLS VS HOMOIRO CLOVER Z VOL. 1”, 19/02/2014
Shinjuku FACE
512 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. KUDO defeated Akito with the Diving Double Knee Drop (5:20).
2. Kota Ibushi defeated Up Up Machine (w/ Up Up Girls & Shogun KY Mana) with the Sit Down Last Ride (7:39).
3. Makoto Oishi & Isami Kodaka defeated Danshoku Dino & Hiroshi Fukuda when Oishi pinned Fukuda after the Zan Isamu Leg from Kodaka (12:14).
– Bonus Match: Up Up Machine (Sanshiro Takagi) defeated Up Up Machine (Kazuki Hirata) with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (?:??).

DDT co-promoted a show with the Up Up Girls for a show that featured wrestling and musical performances. The event focused on the feud between the Up Up Girls and Homoiro Clover Z. The idols brought in some wrestlers to fight on their behalf. They were the mysterious Up Up Machine, Isami Kodaka and in a surprising betrayal Makoto Oishi! Danshoku Dino was shocked to learn that Oishi was a spy for the Up Up Girls all along! Hiroshi Fukuda stepped up to team with Dino to wrestle Kodaka & Oishi in the main event.

Kota Ibushi had to face the Up Up Machine, the secret weapon in a Strong Machine mask who was accompanied by the Up Up Girls. All of the girls except one also wore similar Super Strong Machine masks. The one who didn’t was dressed up as Shogun KY Wakamatsu. Some of the DDT fans in the audience quickly figured out Up Up Machine was Kazuki Hirata. The girls attacked Ibushi with paper fan whenever he was outside the ring but he was able to grab one of the fans and use it on Machine. Ibushi went on to beat Machine and Dino laughed at the loser afterwards.

Another Up Up Machine appeared after the main event to confront the first Machine. He ripped off the guy’s mask to reveal it was Kazuki Hirata and then challenged him to a match. During the match the new Machine was unmasked to reveal it was Sanshiro Takagi! Takagi beat Hirata and afterwards said he is so rejuvenated from the show that just happened he now feels like he is 20 years old. He hopes DDT and Up Up Girls will joint promote a show again some time.
