6. Enter Sandman Match: MAO defeated Yuki Ueno, Brahman Sasaki, Takeshi Masada, Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine when MAO pinned Sasadango with the Ultra Jam (19:32).
For the next two days DDT are holding their summer beer garden shows inside Shinjuku FACE for the last time before the venue shuts down for good next month. Day 1 ended with the annual Enter Sandman match where The Sandman’s much replicated entrance gets turned into an entire No Holds Barred free for all match. Chris Brookes did his homework and wore a Sandman style outfit. Daisuke Sasaki didn’t show up because of a chronic hangover but in his place was Brahman Sasaki. He unmasked Super Sasadango Machine then shoved him face first into Danshoku Dieno’s Hell Gate. MAO then grabbed a large bag of empty beer cans and jumped off the top rope to land a Guillotine Leg Drop onto Sasadango for the win.
MAO celebrated by calling himself the champion of idiots when Daichi Sato got into the ring. Sato isn’t old enough to drink yet and complained about having nothing fun to do at the show unlike all the adults. This will be his last summer vacation as a student so he wants to make a great memory out of it. MAO suggested they go to a theme park together but Sato instead challenged him for the KO-D Openweight Title so he can become the youngest champion ever! MAO accepted, explaining he’s been waiting for someone like Sato to come fight him. He remembers having a match with Sato four years ago when Sato was only 13 years old. He still remembers Sato kicking him hard and telling him to die. Ever since then MAO has been waiting for Sato to reach puberty so he could finally fight him as a man. Hisaya Imabayashi announced the title match will happen at Korakuen Hall on 30th August, one day after Sato’s 18th birthday.
MAO came into the show holding the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title along with the KO-D Title but lost the Iron Man belt to Shunma Katsumata during the opening segment. Katsumata was then pinned by Yuni while the match order announcement was going on. Another title change happened later when Kumadori beat Yuni to win a 6-Man Tag match. After that Kumadori challenged Katsumata for the DDT Extreme Title after he heard Katsumata say anyone could come challenge him. Kumadori doesn’t want to be a guest wrestler in DDT forever so he wants a title match. It was confirmed for 30th August but Katsumata then kicked Kumadori and pinned him with a Small Package to suddenly take the Iron Man Title off him! He now has a goal to cash in his Right To Challenge Gauntlet so he can win the KO-D title and become a Triple Crown champion!
Lovesickness prevented Antonio Honda from appearing at the show. A.YAZAWA took his place in the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match. Everyone in the match danced, drank and caused each other to all spit out their beer. In the end Junta Miyawaki did a Triple H spit with the beer and pinned YAZAWA with the Pedigree.
Yuki Ishida found himself in the Kazuki Hirata spot of immediately losing his match and having everybody angry at him for it. Earlier in the day Soma Takao announced he would be leaving DDT next month so everyone thought it was unfair for one of his last matches in the company would end in just 17 seconds. Everyone agreed to a restart and the match gradually turned from wrestling into everybody feeding each other cans of beer.
The dark match between Ilusion and Yoshihiko turned into a brawl around the venue before making its way back to the ring. Ilusion wanted to use a chair after a ref bump but ended up hitting himself with it when Yoshihiko dodged a swing and the chair bounced off the ropes back into Ilusion. Yoshihiko gave him the Infinity Destroyer before finishing him off with the Reincarnation, getting revenge for Ilusion eliminating him from the Battle Royal in Sumo Hall earlier this week.

Rukiya has been taken out of the DDT Variety Team Audition match as well.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki (c) Vs Jun Akiyama & Rukiya
2. DDT Universal Title: Ryusuke Taguchi (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki
The DDT Universal Title now belongs to a New Japan wrestler. Ryusuke Taguchi is now the champion and his performance drew out Daisuke Sasaki to challenge him for the belt. Sasaki remembers losing to Taguchi at the Best Of The Super Jr. way back in 2012. That memory of Taguchi being so strong has stayed with Sasaki and that is the version of Taguchi he wants to fight again.
Rukiya is expected to be ready in time to fight for the KO-D Tag Team Titles at the end of the month. He better be because this was his idea in the first place. Shinya Aoki might be risking his RIZIN fight next month for this! Junta Miyawaki will also get reminded of his home in NOAH by stepping across the ring from Jun Akiyama once more.
Kumadori will be on the show.

The match order for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” was confirmed earlier today. paleyouth’s request to put the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles in the opener was accepted. They think the start of the show is the best place for them to celebrate breaking the most title defences should they beat Strange Love Connection.
The middle of the show is going to get extreme because the DDT Extreme Title match between Hideki Okatani and Shunma Katsumata is going to be a Barbed Wire Death Match!
A lot more Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changes happened today. Right now Yuki Ishida is the one who can end up winning the Bullet Train pass if he makes it to Sumo Hall as the latest champion.

6. Unit Shuffle! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & HARASHIMA Vs Chris Brookes, KANON & To-y
Things are getting drastic in the long running feud between Hisaya Imabayashi and Tetsuya Koda. All of their matches have previously taken place inside Shinjuku FACE so it is only fitting for them to blow off their feud in the same building before it shuts down. However to make it even more dramatic the loser has promised to immediately end their career!
BASARA “BASARA 314 ~UTAGE~”, 21/08/2026

3. Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) Vs Antonio Honda
4. Masato Kamino Vs Takeru Inoue
5. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura
To me this looks like a bunch of random matches on the BASARA undercard. However Takeru Inoue getting a singles match in the semi-main event might be important down the line if it is going to be positioned that way.

The inclusion of Super P to “FUCKED UP FEST” isn’t surprising because her band was already booked for the show. But the monsters of Kaiju Big Battel showing up too? I didn’t see that coming.

10. Dramatic Dream Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Kaisei Takechi
11. KO-D Openweight Title – Goodcom Asset Presents: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs MAO
This is the full lineup for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” but the match order has not been decided yet outside of the main event. Yuki Ueno got one over on MAO this past weekend by making him tap out to a Sleeper Hold. He thinks MAO isn’t hitting the heights of his potential for what should be the most important KO-D Openweight Title challenge of his career. MAO is certain he still has that crazy side of himself, it’s just that he has matured a little bit so he can be ready to become DDT’s champion.
There is a shadow following Hideki Okatani’s reign as DDT Extreme Champion that he needs to vanquish next. He needs to defend the belt against Shunma Katsumata! They have fought over the title two times before with Katsumata winning both times as champion. The first match in 2023 was an important stepstone for Okatani because it was his entry into hardcore wrestling. That match was also where Katsumata injured his leg and had to vacate the title afterwards. When he returned and won it back in 2024, Okatani was one of Katsumata’s first defences during that title reign.
A partnership forged in fire has made Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki decide to chase after the KO-D Tag Team Titles together. They previously fought Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA for No. 1 Contendership over the titles back in March. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC won that match and went on to become the champions so there is plenty of setup for the rematch.
DDT are giving Hinata Kasai a tough challenge if he wants to get his first win while teaming with his dad Jun Kasai. They will take on Jun Akiyama and his DDT protege Rukiya.
Minoru Suzuki & Sanshiro Takagi are joining forces after years of being enemies inside the ring, outside the ring, at an empty Tokyo Dome and even on a bullet train. The strength of their alliance will depend on how annoying Kazuki Hirata & To-y will be in front of them.
Speaking of bullet trains, Raku now holds the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Whoever enters the Battle Royal as the champion will get a bullet train pass for one year to use whenever DDT books them for shows held outside of Tokyo. I’m not sure if that also applies to Tokyo Joshi Pro if Raku gets the prize.

The final set of Beer Garden shows to be held in Shinjuku FACE will happen in August and the usual match gimmicks will be held there. Miyawaki gets to join in the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match for the first time. Ilusion and Yoshihiko are also having a pre-show rematch of their Korakuen Hall dark match from April. Last but not least, Kumadori will be on the show.

4. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match Part 2: Ken Ohka, Masashi Takeda & Akira Shoji Vs Chris Brookes, Isami Kodaka & Fuminori Abe

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie
The Toyama Army that Ken Ohka’s been gathering together has a new member. Masashi Takeda is not from Toyama but apparantly his dad is and he’s visited the area enough times in his life to qualify for membership. There is no disputing that Akira Shoji is part of the team.
Moeka Haruhi and Rydeen Hagane were not on the same page during their tag match over the weekend. They blamed each other for losing that match so the obvious direction to go is have them wrestle each other to settle their differences.

It’s been over a year since Kota Sekifuda left Big Japan to go freelance. The first anniversary of his debut in Baka Gaijin + Friends is happening in August too so his present is a match against Minoru Suzuki.
The live music lineup for “FUCKED UP FEST 2026” includes a lot of bands with wrestlers in it. They are Dos Quatro (MAO), Daisetz (Antonio Honda), NωA Jr. (Shunma Katsumata, Kazuma Sumi & Yuni), Channel D (Daisuke Sasaki) and Super P And The Space Bandits (Filipino wrestler Super P). So those might be the clues as to who else will be wrestling on the show.

6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Falls Count Anywhere Match: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when Sato pinned Honda with a Diving Body Press through a Table (19:41).
*V6 for paleyouth.
There was a contact signing at the start of the show that for the two upcoming title matches going on between FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and paleyouth. However paleyouth were late to the signing which caused Antonio Honda to get angry. He demanded that today’s KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match should now be Falls Count Anywhere. Akito was in charge as the GM today and he agreed to make the change. The two sides brawled all over Shinjuku FACE until Honda was placed onto a table near the counter. Daichi Sato climbed the counter and jumped off it to crush Honda through the table and win the match, meaning paleyouth have now tied the record for most KO-D 6-Man Tag Title defences!
After the match three members from Strange Love Connection appeared and confronted paleyouth. KANON & Yukio Naya stood aside so Viento Levante could challenge the champions for a title match. He said he went to Mexico and doesn’t know if it was worth it. He then came home and worked hard to become as strong and cool as everyone else but doesn’t feel like he has earned the right to make this challenge. But if there is at least one person out there who cheers for him he will work hard for them. paleyouth accepted the challenge because they all understand where Levante is coming from. They will defend their titles against SLC on 11th August with the goal of breaking the defence record at Sumo Hall.
The second of two Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets belongs to Masami Inahata after he won the Blindfold Bra 4 Way Match. But since he was still blindfolded when the match ended, Ilusion easily crept into the ring and approached Inahata from behind to put him in a Sleeper Hold. All he did though was give Inahata a warning that he can cash in his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet on him whenever he wants.
You better start believing in ghost stories Kaisei Takechi. You’re in one! He took part in the annual multi-man match that turns into a ghost story if it does not end in three minutes. He had to be dragged into the ring by everyone else because he admittedly does not like scary stories. Danshoku Dieno tried to calm him down by telling him he only has to fall down when Hisaya Imabayashi points at him. That doesn’t actually mean he dies. Everyone then encouraged Imabayashi to do his point except he wanted to add a twist to the proceedings. He would only do the point at one person, whoever wins the Battle Royal! The match continued and Takechi ended up becoming the last man standing. Imabayashi began to tell his ghost story called “The Coin Locker” about a person finding an abandoned child at a coin locker. However Imabayashi didn’t expect Takechi to pull out a script and start reciting the story alongside him. Takechi then revealed he took part in this match to get revenge on Imabayashi for his mentor Makoto Oishi because all those years of Imabayashi doing the “It’s you!” point at Oishi made him addicted to the scare! Imabayashi tried to scare him with the point but missed and hit Dieno by accident. Takechi did one of his own but hit Yukinori Matsui. This kept going on until everyone else fainted. Imabayashi and Takechi finally hit each other at the same time but Takechi was the only one to survive it. He slumped into KANON’s arms and told him he was going to sleep for a while. KANON screamed in panic and the room turned into darkness… The lights then came back on and everybody lined up in the ring to bow to the audience.
According to Daisuke Sasaki his tag partner today Mikiya Sasaki is actually his long lost twin brother. That means they are the Super Sasaki Brothers! The brotherly love disappeared late into the match when Daisuke complained about having to wear green while Mikiya got to wear red and blue. They started fighting each other which helped lead them into losing their match against The 37KAMIINA.
After the match Honda came down to the ring to reveal his tag partner against Sasaki & DOUKI at Sumo Hall on 11th August. It’s going to be Tetsuya Endo and he is here right now! Endo couldn’t believe what he is seeing from Sasaki. This isn’t the Daisuke Sasaki he knew from DAMNATION so at Sumo Hall Endo is going to expose Sasaki’s true colours! Sasaki taked back, saying nobody here knows who Endo is because he’s wrestling on a green canvas and couldn’t even win a crappy GHC Championship. Honda then stepped in to explain he chose Endo because it will make the match more exciting. It will also be nostalgic because it will be the first time in a decade that Endo & Honda are teaming up together.
The contract signing with Fandora and paleyouth that was mentioned earlier also involved the KO-D Tag Team Titles match taking place on 26th July. paleyouth were present by the time this contract was signed so no extra stipulation was made for it. Neither HARASHIMA nor Chris Brookes are that worried by their opponents. Brookes even had Honda speak about the match on his behalf. Takeshi Masada spoke about how much winning the KO-D Tag Titles would mean for both himself and Yuya Koroku. The two of them are confident they will become double champions and after today they are halfway towards achieving that goal.

*Shunma Katsumata wins the Red Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.
The final series of Beer Garden shows inside Shinjuku FACE are happening this week so DDT are sending them off with a bang. The company’s biggest drinkers all gathered together for the main event that was just an excuse for them to get absolutely blasted on tequila. Shunma Katsumata opened the show by pinning Kazuma Sumi during the NωA Jr. to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and he got to close out the show by winning the first of two Red Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets to be activated this year. He did so by wearing a T.M.Revolution costume made out of tissue paper and was the last one standing after everyone else became too drunk to continue fighting.
However somebody else has taken it upon themselves to shake up the Right To Challenge prizes this year. Ilusion has complained online about how stale the concept is and he wanted to show off to everyone his idea to spice it up this year. After the main event he entered the ring carrying a purple Gauntlet and announced the creation of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet! With this prize the holder can cash it in on any person with a regular Right To Challenge Gauntlet whenever they want. Hisaya Imabayashi listened to Ilusion’s pitch and found it interesting enough to give it a go so starting tomorrow, the Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet will become officially activated!
Everybody in Match #6 wrestled while wearing stockings over their heads.
A situation broke out during HARASHIMA’s opening speech where Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda were chasing Junta Miyawaki & Masami Inahata down to the ring. HARASHIMA calmed everyone down and told them all to apologise to each other. But when they did they all headbutted each other by accident and went backstage feeling weird. Then when it was time for their match, Miyawaki showed up dressed as Honda and Inahata was dressed as Dieno! They even copied the moves and the match ended with Inahata pinning Honda with the Gotch-Style Danshoku Driver.
Kazuki Hirata threw himself into a Battle Royal to fight against many Invisible opponents. There were more than wrestlers involved too because some of the participants were Invisible versions of people from the dance group M!LK. What Hirata did not expect most of all was the appearance of his own Invisible doppelganger! After getting a taste of his own medicine by being pinned with his own finisher, Hirata was happy to pose with Invisible Kazuki Hirata and the rest of the Invisible Men for a commemorative photo.
There was a contract signing for the DDT Extreme Title match between Hideki Okatani and Yuki Ishida happening on 26th July. Ishida spoke about feeling lost ever since Kazusada Higuchi retired and Harimao disbanded. He wants to change but has only been moving vaguely forward which is why he decided to wager his hair in order to get an Extreme Title shot. Okatani said he will crush Ishida without the need for any dirty tricks. He then asked Ishida what is it exactly that makes his hair valuable? Ishida answered he has been growing his hair for the last five years so it is like he is putting all of his experience up until now on the line. If he were to lose he will end up in a terrible state. With that explanation, Okatani decided it will just be a regular match with no other special rules applied.

SUPER JAPAN “BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING”, 06/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced
0. Dark Match – Unpaid Rumble RETURNS!: Daisuke Sekimoto defeated Shota with a Diving Body Press (29:55).

1. Special Single Match: MBM defeated Miles Karu with the Package Piledriver (7:41).
2. 3 Minute 5 Round Match: Thanomsak Toba defeated Mac Matsushita by TKO with the Backhand Blow (R3 1:26).
3. Special Tag Match: Gym Trainer Kotoka & Marika Kobashi defeated Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Saito when Kobashi pinned Saito with a Rotating Cradle (17:54).
4. Special Single Match: Hayabusa defeated Ken Ohka with the Firebird Splash (9:08).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Ippanjin Munenori Sawa & Fuminori Abe defeated Brahman Koji, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei when Takagi pinned Kei with the Stone Cold Stunner (12:58).
6. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata defeated CIMA with the Back Drop Hold (18:05).
Some little known history between Yuji Nagata and CIMA was revisited for the main event of the latest Super Japan show. When CIMA was only two months into his pro wrestling career he apparently had a WCW match with Nagata inside the Universal Studios that held tapings at the time. He stuck around for a while to be Nagata’s weight training partner until their paths split off. Today, 19 years later they had their rematch. Nagata entered the ring with the amateur parody wrestler Ujikoji Nagata alongside him but the match with CIMA was played completely straight. CIMA targeted Nagata’s left leg before moving up to his big moves but Nagata kicked out of the Swan Dive Meteroa. In return, Nagata gave CIMA an Exploder Suplex, a Running Knee Strike and then the Back Drop Hold to get the pinfall.
Nagata said CIMA is completely different from how he was 29 years ago and he now understands how many tough battles he has gone through. CIMA pointed out that Shinjuku FACE will be closing down soon but his battle with Nagata is not over. He wants to have another rematch in 30 years time when he is 79 and Nagata will be 88! After CIMA left the ring, Nagata wanted to talk to someone else so he called for Satoshi Kojima to come face him. Nagata then revealed that his contract with New Japan was supposed to end in 2024 which is why Sanshiro Takagi chose him to be the ace of Super Japan. Plans changed and New Japan extended his deal but Nagata is still proud of the work he is doing here. He doesn’t appreciate Kojima suddenly popping up in Super Japan and be paid for acting like he can do whatever he wants! Kojima said ever since 2013 he’s been constantly DM’ing Takagi about working with him for whatever ideas they can come up with so he hasn’t come to Super Japan for the money. Takagi and Masayuki Uchida both stepped in to tell Nagata and Kojima they should wrestle each other at the next Super Japan show scheduled for Shinjuku FACE on 28th September, two days before the venue closes down for good. Uchida in particular loves the idea and thinks it is a match that can only happen in Super Japan. Takagi is even going far enough to call it a battle between Super Japan and New Japan!
Maybe Nagata had a point about Kojima not taking Super Japan seriously because Kojima showed up for his match acting like one of The Brahman Brothers! He appeared in full Brahman gear and that included a large patch stuck over his head to make his hair resemble a skullet. It appeared that Brahman Koji was brainwashed into acting this way and he joined along with the usual messy Brahman spots. He even drooled out orange coloured goo from his mouth after he took damage from Munenori Sawa & Fuminori Abe. Kojima finally snapped out of it when Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei both accidentally threw powder into his face. Next thing they knew, Kojima was knocking them down with Lariats and allowing Sanshiro Takagi to give them Stunners before stacking them up for the victory. The Brahmans had lost Brahman Koji today but they can just go find another new member to join them and make summer memories together.
Somehow Ken Ohka got busted open really heavily at the start of his match after Hayabusa got him with a Topé Con Hilo. While Ohka showed some fighting spirit by continuing on, he eventually fell to Hayabusa’s Firebird Splash. Hayabusa had heard about Ohka’s request to fight him so he asked him how he felt after the match? Ohka said he will be turning 49 this year. He ran away from a wrestling dojo in his mid-twenties but he was eventually forgiven and he worked hard to establish Ganbare☆Pro. He has proved that despite having negative experiences, a 49 year old like him can still get married and have three kids by working hard. So if Hayabusa also has a dream then he shouldn’t give up either.
There is a follow up to Kota Ibushi’s sudden appearance at the previous Super Japan show but it is going in a completely different direction. Mac Matsushita lost his fight against Thanomsak Toba but later joined up with him, Ibushi and Tyson Maeguchi backstage to announced that Matsushita has now joined the Ibushi Wrestling Institute! Takagi gave his endorsement to the move meaning that Matsushita is now no longer exclusive to just wrestling on Super Japan shows.
The return of the Unpaid Rumble had a few actual professional wrestlers sneaking into it. Takagi and Shota were already advertised for it pretty much to oversee all of the amateur and parody gimmicks filling up the ring. However Mio Shirai appeared as one of the early entrants and the biggest surprise of all was Daisuke Sekimoto showing up to clear out whoever was left and then win the whole thing! Unfortunately he didn’t realise until afterwards that entries for the match was on a volunteer only basis so he wasn’t going to be paid for anything. His prize for winning is an offer to participate in future Super Japan shows also for free. Sekimoto said he will consider it.

The card is starting to fill up. Yuki Ueno and MAO will be in the KO-D Title match in Sumo Hall again for the second time in the hopes of carrying DDT on the ultimate path towards the Tokyo Dome. There are also some inter-promotional bouts to look forward to with Kazuma Sumi defending the DDT Universal Title against Ryusuke Taguchi in a continuation of the DDT Vs New Japan rivalry. There is still some friendliness between the two companies because Daisuke Sasaki has picked DOUKI to be his tag partner for the mystery match against Antonio Honda and whoever he is going to pick (the popular guess online so far seems to be YOH). Dragon Gate is also taking part in the fun by sending YAMATO over for a match. Unfortunately for him he’s getting Danshoku Dieno as his opponent.

What’s a big attraction like Kaisei Takechi doing at the Beer Garden? Would THE RAMPAGE allow him to have a few drinks if he wishes to have some?
Come see the Invisible Man Rumble… except you can’t… because most of the entries are invisible… We’re starting to enter the territory where this could be mistaken for a Mystery Wrestling show instead of a DDT show.
Kumadori will be on the first day of Beer Garden but he hasn’t been announced for the second day yet.
DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2026 IN SHINJUKU 【FINAL COUNTDOWN 2】”, 16/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Mikiya Sasaki Vs Shunma Katsumata & To-y
2. Blindfold Nipple Covered 4 Way Death Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Junta Miyawaki Vs Masami Inahata
3. Kaidan Shin-Numabukuro Royale: Kaisei Takechi Vs Jun Akiyama Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs MAO Vs KANON Vs Naomi Yoshimura Vs Rukiya Vs Hinata Kasai
*Kaidan Reading Artist: Hisaya Imabayashi
4. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
Takechi gets to experience the annual ghost story from Hisaya Imabayashi too! Junta Miyawaki also gets to experience more DDT-ness by taking part in his first Blindfold match. Maybe this time everyone else will want to drink along with him.
I have a suspicion that Mikiya Sasaki is going to impersonate Daisuke Sasaki instead of doing his usual Dory Funk Jr. tribute. Or how about Daisuke shows up thinking he’s Terry Funk?
DDT “YUKI UENO 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW -IN MY MIND “10”-”, 13/09/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Special Tag Match: MAO & Yoshihiko Vs Kazuki Hirata & Kaisei Takechi
2. Yuki Ueno 10th Anniversary Match ~ Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Shunma Katsumata
A promise was made by Yuki Ueno to have Kazuki Hirata & Kaisei Takechi team up together for his show. He just needed to find the right opponents for them. MAO fits the bill just fine as one half of the opposition. As for the other? Takechi prepare to meet your match in the form of Yoshihiko!

DDT “CHARISMANIA IV”, 02/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. Fake Brahman Army Vs Mataro Army All-Out Confrontation: Fake Brahman Yuki, Fake Brahman Yuki & Fake Brahman Yuki Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Takayuki Ueki & Takeshi Masada (w/ Mataro)
2. Yasu Urano & Sangre Azteca Jr. Vs Naohiro Katsumi & Yunicaras Jr. (w/ Sumicaras)
3. Special Single Match: MJ Paul Vs Ryunosuke Nagai
4. Special Tag Match: Minoru Fujita & Ilusion Vs Ayato Ishida & Gabai Ji-chan
5. DDT Extreme Title: Hideki Okatani (c) Vs Yuko Miyamoto
6. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs Keisuke Ishii
Coming out of the weekend Hideki Okatani is now on a roll as the DDT Extreme Champion. His next defence has Daisuke Sasaki’s stamp of approval included because he is bringing in Yuko Miyamoto to be the challenger on this show.
We previously had a luchador named Yunicaras on these kind of shows but he got unmasked the last time he was here. I bet Yunicaras Jr. is a completely different person. No way would it be Yuni just coming back as another incognito luchador again. That would just ruin Sumicaras’s reputation and be an insult to Sangre Azteca Jr.
The match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet.
DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2026 IN SHINJUKU 【FINAL COUNTDOWN 2】”, 16/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE
1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
A tag team title war has broken out between FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and paleyouth. Both sides have championships and they agreed to defend the belts against each other this July. First up is paleyouth defending the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles and they only need one more win to break the record for most defences in a single reign. They have already beaten Fandora back in April but that was when the winless Hinata Kasai was on the challenger team. This time Antonio Honda is taking his place.
DDT “ROCK IN RING 2026 ~ONE HIT KILL~”, 26/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA (c) Vs Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku
Then a week and a half later it will be Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA putting the KO-D Tag Team Titles on the line against Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku. Brookes thinks Masada would be better off teaming with Daichi Sato instead but Masada & Koroku recently debuted their own tag team finisher. This new weapon called The Roar For Tomorrow Created By Me And Yuya might be the extra step needed for paleyouth to dominate the tag division.
