6. The Final Match Of Beer Garden Pro Wrestling 2024! Special Drunk 3 Way Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Yuki Ueno & MAO Vs Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi

Everyone in the main event wants to get drunk tomorrow so DDT may as well make it part of the match.

Due to a strong request by Antonio Honda, he and Jun Akiyama will now face each other in a Tiger Cub Rope Death Match! They will be attached to each other by the wrist with a tiger rope and more importantly a tiger cub stuffed toy is hanging from the middle of the rope. It will be up to the wrestlers to protect the toy from their opponent or even use it as a weapon.

Recent shenanigans with the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title has led to Kazuki Hirata now defending the title against former champion Danshoku Dieno.

The Right To Challenge Shield holders going into tomorrow’s show are Shunma Katsumata (Blue) and Soma Takao (White).

Two new names from the North American scene will step foot into TJPW for the first time. Liiza Hall is from Canada and has nine years of experience. Rebel Kel has previously wrestled in Japan for Stardom near the end of the pre-Bushiroad era. Amira was on last December’s TJPW show with Prestige. She also teamed with Rika Tatsumi back then so they are already familiar with each other. But is that enough to take on Daisy Monkey?

Yesterday Kamitani became the first wrestler ever to hold both the BJW Strong World Heavyweight Title and the BJW Death Match Heavyweight Title at the same time so he’s now coming into the match as Big Japan’s Double Crown champ.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TJPW BRIGHT EYES”, 09/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews

When 121000000 won the Princess Tag Team Titles the first time they lost it in America on their first defence. In order to make sure the second reign will succeed they are going to try this scenario again. This time instead of facing The Magical Sugar Rabbits in Los Angeles they are going to fight Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews in Seattle. In the minds of the champions Vixen & Matthews are a makeshift team being put together to challenge them. However in DEFY they are two rivals attempting to put aside their differences in order to both become champions again.

Zara Zakher has been added to the show. Speaking of Zakher…

She eliminated Miu Watanabe from the Tokyo Princess Cup during the summer so it’s been decided she will get a Princess Of Princess Title shot during this tour. It will also be the first time in five years when the title will be defended in Osaka. The last time that happened was Shoko Nakajima defending the belt against Mizuki back in September 2019.

DDT “YUKI ISHIDA TRIUMPHANT RETURN! GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN KUMAMOTO” Results

October 14, 2024

DDT “YUKI ISHIDA TRIUMPHANT RETURN! GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN KUMAMOTO”, 14/10/2024
Kumamoto L’celmo Yatsushiro
273 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. To-y defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with a Frankensteiner (7:40).
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Shunma Katsumata & Keigo Nakamura defeated Danshoku Dieno (c) & Soma Takao when Katsumata pinned Dieno with the Totonou Splash (9:42).
*Shunma Katsumata becomes the 1,676th champion. Shunma Katsumata wins Danshoku Dieno’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Shield.
3. Special Single Match: Yuki Iino defeated Kazuki Hirata by Referee Stoppage with an Argentine Backbreaker (9:58).
4. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA defeated Chris Brookes & Kazuma Sumi when HARASHIMA pinned Sumi with the Somato (10:57).
5. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the Jul.2 (12:44).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul (c) defeated Akito, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida when Sasaki submitted Ishida with the Crossface Lock (23:18).
*V3 for DAMNATION T.A.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Kazuki Hirata defeated Shunma Katsumata (c) with a School Boy (4:16 pm).
*Kazuki Hirata becomes the 1,677th champion.

The hometown advantage wasn’t enough for Yuki Ishida to get revenge on DAMNATION T.A. He defiantly stood up to them today along with Akito & Yukio Naya as the Dosukoi Three Musketeers. A chair attack from MJ Paul meant Ishida had to fight in a weakened state but he was able to hit Daisuke Sasaki with the Flame Palm for a nearfall. Sasaki ducked a second Flame Palm, gave Ishida the Pedigree and then made him submit to the Crossface Lock. He talked trash to Ishida after the match, telling him he has no talent for pro wrestling and he should be grateful to come from a countryside that has no hope or dreams. Ishida defended his hometown and said he is proud to be from Yatsushiro. He got to challenge for a championship he always wanted but was too weak to win it. He promised to keep fighting with hopes and dreams. He also hopes the next time he wrestles here it will be with the rest of Harimao, fully reunited.

HARASHIMA continues to gain confidence for his upcoming KO-D Openweight Title shot. He told fans the next time he comes to Kumamoto he will be bringing the KO-D Title with him.

Not only did Yuki Iino lift Kazuki Hirata into submission with the Argentine Backbreaker but he also used the move to carry him away from the ring after their match.

Shunma Katsumata exploited Keigo Nakamura’s teamwork for his own gain. He found ways to make Nakamura come to his defence against the other team’s attacks. The plan worked when he told Nakamura to climb the ropes and do a Diving Headbutt to Danshoku Dieno. Dieno dodged the move but rolled right into position for Katsumata to hit him with the Totonou Splash for the victory. Katsumata won both the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and the Right To Challenge Shield from Dieno as a result. Nakamura was so annoyed at being used like that he spent the rest of the show trying to win the Iron Man Title from Katsumata for revenge. At the end of the show Katsumata fought off Nakamura in the ring but Hirata hit him from behind with the ring bell hammer. He then rolled him up for the pin and ran off with the title.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN FUKUOKA” Results

October 13, 2024

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN FUKUOKA”, 13/10/2024
Acros Fukuoka
394 Fans

1. Chris Brookes & Yuki Ishida defeated Soma Takao & Kazuki Hirata when Ishida pinned Hirata with the Dosukoi Hold (7:12).
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul defeated Akito, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi when KANON submitted Sumi with the Crucifix Cobra Twist (10:18).
3. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Toru Owashi defeated Azul Dragon (c) and Danshoku Dieno when Owashi pinned Dieno with La Magistral (5:35).
*Azul Dragon fails in V2. Toru Owashi becomes the 6th O-40 Champion!
4. Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku defeated Jun Akiyama & Keigo Nakamura when Endo pinned Nakamura with the Burning Star Press (9:01).
5. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Yuki Ueno defeated HARASHIMA & Takeshi Masada when Aoki pinned Masada with a Modified Inside Cradle (10:13).
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Falls Count Anywhere: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) defeated Kota Umeda & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Katsumata pinned Matsunaga with the Sauna Trance Splash through a Table (11:46).
*V2 for ShunMao.
7. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) defeated To-y with the Spear (18:28).
*V2 for Yuki Iino.

It’s nice that To-y has a never say die attitude but that wasn’t going to win him the DDT Universal Title today. An endless barrage of Chops from the challenger drew Yuki Iino into firing back with his own. Iino then hit the Spear to bring the match into its closing stretch. He hit threw three Lariats and hit To-y with another Spear to win and defend the title. At the very least, Iino developed a new found respect for his opponent. He always referred to him as Kojima even after the name change but he will start calling him To-y from now on. Iino will also go find ways to make his BURNING even hotter!

Both members of ShunMao have talked about defending the KO-D Tag Team Titles anytime, anywhere and against anyone. To show that they weren’t joking they challenged Kota Umeda & Tomomitsu Matsunaga to change the rules of their title match to Falls Count Anywhere! The champions went on to prove why that match is their specialty by successfully defending the belts. Shunma Katsumata got the pin at ringside after he putMatsunaga through a table with the Sauna Trance Splash from a ladder. Umeda refused to shake hands with the champions after the match. MAO admitted he thought about quitting when the match was first announced but now that his team won he knows they are the best! He’s glad ShunMao were able to show their true colours by doing a Falls Count Anywhere match inside a beautiful venue. He doesn’t know when the next title defence is but ShunMao will do it anytime and anywhere. They don’t even need a ring! Umeda’s next appearance in DDT will be at DNA’s 10th Anniversary show. He named Yuki Iino and Keigo Nakamura as his preferred choice of opponents because he has close connections with those two. He would also like to fight Kazusada Higuchi again whenever he returns from injury.

Shinya Aoki had a lucky escape in his match. He was on the verge of defeat when HARASHIMA hit him with the Somato. However Takeshi Masada was the legal man and Aoki caught him in a Small Package to get the three count out of nowhere. In an uncharacteristic move by a KO-D Openweight Champion, Aoki admitted today was a moral defeat. When he took the Somato his mind went blank and he does not know if he can figure out a gameplan to counter it in time for next Sunday’s title match. Meanwhile HARASHIMA is feeling confident going into that match now that he knows how effective the Somato will be against Aoki.

The O-40 Title is back in the hands of Toru Owashi, making him the first two time champion in the belt’s history. He beat Azul Dragon directly while Danshoku Dieno was preoccupied from being in the Hell Gate position. Owashi didn’t get many people challenging him the first time round so this time he wants to raise the championship’s value and make it something worthwhile. He asks if there are any wrestlers over 40 years old to please come and challenge him for the belt!

DAMNATION T.A added insult to injury after Match #2 when they tried to cut off Yuki Ishida’s hair with a pair of scissors. Akito & Yukio Naya came to the rescue. Once Ishida was saved he promised to take the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles from DAMNATION T.A at his hometown tomorrow. However Daisuke Sasaki warned he will humiliate Ishida in Kumamoto so badly that Ishida will never be able to walk those streets ever again!

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN ASAKUSA” Results

October 9, 2024

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN ASAKUSA”, 09/10/2024
Tokyo Asakusa Hanayashi Theater
240 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. Dark Match ~ Sponsored By Nariagari: KAKARU & Tawaramachi Kid Jr. defeated Shosaku Inoue & Tataki Torino when KAKARU pinned Inoue with the Fly! Nitoyaro (11:54).
1. Special Single Match: Yukio Naya defeated Antonio Honda with a Crab Hold (7:21).
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Moka Miyamoto defeated Haru Kazashiro with the Rashomon (6:54).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko defeated Shunma Katsumata, Soma Takao & Kazuki Hirata when Dieno pinned Takao with the Danshoku Driver (12:42).
*Danshoku Dieno wins Soma Takao’s Blue Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Shield.
4. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul defeated Chris Brookes, Akito & Kazuma Sumi when Paul pinned Sumi with the Reverse Splash (10:51).
5. Special Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida defeated HARASHIMA & Keigo Nakamura when Nakatsu pinned Nakamura with the V Slider (13:15).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y defeated Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku when To-y pinned Koroku with the Kojima Impact (19:53).

The Spear was the turning point in the main event. Yuki Iino was able to hit To-y with the move like he usually does but he used it again when the match broke down and this time tackled Yuya Koroku by accident. To-y then got the upper hand by giving Iino a Brainbuster and he pinned Koroku with the Kojima Impact. A triumphant To-y told Iino after the match that no matter how many times he is knocked down, he will always get back up. It will keep happening until To-y finally breaks Iino and wins the DDT Universal Title! Backstage MAO says he and To-y keep having to encourage each other for their upcoming matches. MAO lost the Universal Title to Iino so he is cheering on To-y to win it for him. To-y is encouraging MAO to be brave and fight Kota Umeda again because MAO was always scared of him back in DNA.

Most of Harimao were back together. Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida were teaming up while Naomi Yoshimura was present for the match. However Yoshimura is still not cleared to return to wrestling yet and Nakatsu claims he is banned from entering Kyushu so that’s why Ishida has chosen wrestlers from outside Harimao to challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles next week. Ishida will instead team with Akito & Yukio Naya. He is calling the team the Dosukoi Three Musketeers.

Chris Brookes is now focused on getting revenge on DAMNATION T.A. He didn’t team with anyone else from SCHADENFREUDE International today but that didn’t stop him from attacking his enemies before the match began. Daisuke Sasaki later complained about Brookes fighting dirty and asked if it’s because he’s mad that Ilusion belongs to DAMNATION T.A now? Brookes promised SCHADENFREUDE will kill DAMNATION T.A at Korakuen Hall later this month. Meanwhile KANON mocked Akito for only challenging for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles because Ishida told him to join his team. Sasaki suggested that KANON should fight Akito for the DDT Extreme Title instead.

Today’s show was taking place on Jun Akiyama’s birthday but it is Danshoku Dieno who left with a present. He pinned Soma Takao to take one of his Right To Challenge Shields. Dieno already has an idea of what to do with the Shield but isn’t telling anyone what it is. Also in the match Kazuki Hirata complained he is always being booked against Yoshihiko so he attacked the doll with skewers and his team injured the doll with a Super Piledriver. However later in the match the room went dark and Yoshihiko made a dramatic reappearance from the rafters. Shunma Katsumata accused Yoshihiko of copying Sting so Yoshihiko attacked him with the skewers.

The show had several comedians booked to perform in-between some of the matches. Sanshiro Takagi took part in one of the skits dressed as Kenshiro from Fist Of The North Star.

7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume Vs Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku

It’s been so long since TJPW had a tag team of sisters. Kira Summer is bringing over her sister Miki Fortune to team up together. Fortune’s a bit of a wild one so anyone expecting her to act just like Summer will be in for a surprise.

The Next Generation Tournament begins with on this show.

Shoko Nakajima will be in America for Deadlock Pro competing in the Battle Of The Best final so she will be missing this show. Yuki Kamifuku will also be absent because she will be defending the Asian Double Crown over in the Philippines.

DDT “DDT PRO WRESTLING IN IKEBUKURO FULL MOON FESTIVAL 2024”, 19/10/2024
Tokyo Ikebukuro Nishiguchi Park Outdoor Theater

1. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Soma Takao & Kazuki Hirata
2. Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Jun Akiyama, Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. Special Tag Match: Akito & Pokotan Vs Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs HARASHIMA, MIKAMI & Gota Ihashi
5. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Takayuki Ueki, Takeshi Masada & Mecha Mummy Vs Keigo Nakamura, To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi

A team of five from DDT’s new generation are going to challenge for the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles. SCHADENFREUDE have Takayuki Ueki subbing in for Antonio Honda but he was part of the team when they originally won the belts anyway. So it may as well be the champions entering the match at full force.

MIKAMI makes another DDT appearance this year.

One day before the DDT Extreme Title is defended, Akito and Danshoku Dieno are facing off in a wacky tag match with Pokotan and Yoshihiko also involved. The stipulation for the title match hasn’t been chosen yet but it would be leaving it very late if this match is meant to set it up.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024”, 20/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Super Sasadango Machine & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi

5. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA

I bet it will have changed by the time this show happens but the two remaining Right To Challenge Shields are both currently being held by Soma Takao.

DDT “AKOS X DDT EKIMAE PRO WRESTLING”, 26/10/2024

3. The 37KAMIINA Vs SCHADENFREUDE International!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada

DDT is holding a few matches at a shopping area in Saitama. It is an outdoor show so bad weather on the day could cancel the event. The show notes say it can go ahead if it’s light rain but anything that can be described as stormy will call it off.

DDT “JIHIKEN PRO WRESTLING” Results

October 7, 2024

DDT “JIHIKEN FESTIVAL 2024”, 06/10/2024
Ikebukuro Sunshine City Exhibition Hall
??? Fans

1. Yukio Naya defeated Kazuma Sumi with a Crab Hold (?:??).
2. Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku defeated Keigo Nakamura & Yuki Ishida when Endo pinned Ishida with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (?:??).
3. Kim Yocchan, Kazuki Hirata & Shunma Katsumata defeated Antonio Honda, Danshoku Dieno & Akito when Hirata pinned Honda (?:??).
4. Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & HARASHIMA when Ueno pinned Masada after the My MADMAX (?:??).
5. Super Sasadango Machine & Makoto Oishi defeated Yuki Iino & Kenji Ikegami when Sasadango pinned Ikegami with the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock (?:??).

Yesterday DDT held a free sponsored event at a medical convention in Ikebukuro called the Jihiken Festival. I found out DDT holds an annual show at this convention but it never gets talked about outside of the wrestlers’ social media posts. I hunted down the results for two reasons. 1) I’m kind of a completionist for this sort of stuff and 2) this was Makoto Oishi’s first match with DDT after his contract with them ended a few days ago. So yes, Oishi’s “final” match with DDT only lasted three days.

Kenji Ikegami is the COO of SSF Holdings, a venture business group that focuses on the medical field. Ikegami made his pro wrestling debut this past Spring and his appearance here was his second ever match. The stipulation for the main event was if Oishi’s team won then he would get a job interview with Ikegami.
