DDT’s 29th Anniversary show wasn’t the only wrestling event named “JUDGEMENT” to take place this week. It’s alternate timeline equivalent Super Japan held its own “JUDGEMENT” today, using the original gimmick related to that name in order to determine if it should continue to exist or not. Every fan in attendance was handed a ballot to vote on whether they support more Super Japan shows in the future or if Sanshiro Takagi’s side project should be binned instead. With 258 Yes votes, only 6 No votes and 51 non-answers the judgement was clear. Super Japan will continue! It’s a good thing too because Takagi already went ahead and made future plans for the brand that would have gone to waste if the audience rejected the promotion.

One of the decisions made today was the hiring of a new advisor for the brand. Takagi has now brought Masayuki Uchida on board and will count on his experience of managing several wrestling promotions in the past. Uchida was the president of All Japan in the early 2010s then became chairman for NOAH during the second half of that decade. He also previously worked with Takagi as a director for the Bakuha Koshien spin off that DDT promoted with Atsushi Onita during the pandemic. Uchida said he is just as confused over the disappearance of those shows as anyone else. His first goal as Super Japan’s advisor is to push Yuji Nagata back to the top of the wrestling industry.

After Nagata beat Fuminori Abe in the main event, Uchida approached him with an idea to form a brilliant new tag team for the next show in Ueno Park on 27th May. Had Super Japan disbanded today, Takagi would have used the booking to put on something else as a backup plan. Instead he now gets to be part of a once in a lifetime main event. Uchida brought out CIMA to meet Nagata! CIMA explained to everyone that he is linked to Nagata because they once had a match against each other in WCW 29 years ago. It was very early in CIMA’s wrestling career and Ultimo Dragon also entrusted him to be Nagata’s weight training partner back then. Nagata agreed to be CIMA’s partner and together the two can be called WCW’s Strongest Tag Team! Facing them on 27th May will be two rivals who decided to form an alliance today. Sanshiro Takagi beat his long time enemy Poison Sawada JULIE earlier in the show then proposed they form their own tag team because Super Japan is meant to be an alternate timeline of DDT. The two later answered Nagata & CIMA’s challenge. Nagata remembers when Sawada was a trainee in New Japan so he’s interested to fight him. CIMA then tried to attack Sawada only to get stopped by Sawada’s snake magic. Takagi said now that he and Sawada are a team after being enemies for 30 years, something terrifying is bound to happen!

There were two matches that finished without a winner during today’s show. Kazunari Murakami and Shinya Aoki got into a brawl at ringside that went out of control and put the referee in danger. He ended up calling off the match when both Murakami and Aoki kept putting him in harm’s way. The 3 Way Match between Hiroshi Yamato, Gym Trainer Kotoka and Munenori Sawa turned into an impromptu workout session where all three men exhausted themselves into unconsciousness.

Kuroshio TOKYO Japan taunted Kumadori’s dancing by asking his if he even knows how to wrestle? He then baited his opponent into breakdancing so he could get the jump on him. Kuroshio then declared he would intentionally injure Kumadori so he would never dance again! Kumadori’s dance skills helped him fight back to where the two started a dance battle against each other. But Kuroshio cut it off with a surprise roll up to win the match.


Video – Mystery Wrestling X Baka Gaijin + Friends

MYSTERY WRESTLING X BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS Results

March 17, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS/MYSTERY WRESTLING “MYSTERY WRESTLING X BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS”, 17/03/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Baliyan Akki & Mei Suruga defeated Dark King Ueki & Princess Ram (w/ Munek) when Suruga pinned Ueki after the Dolphin Press (10:50).
2. HADDY & Junior Benito defeated Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi when HADDY submitted Honda with the Crossface (10:25).
3. MAO defeated Fuminori Abe with an Side School Boy (12:55).
4. Chris Brookes & El Phantasmo defeated Evil Uno & Kikutaro when Phantasmo pinned Uno with the CR II onto the Plastic Box filled with firecrackers (20:44).

Evil Uno did not come alone for his latest tour of Japan. He brought along some buddies from Mystery Wrestling to be the “Friends” in Baka Gaijin + Friends this month! The two wacky wrestling promotions joined forces for a joint show and Chris Brookes personally welcomed Uno to ARENA Shimokitazawa. The two would face off in a main event tag match with mystery partners. Brookes expected Uno’s partner to be a Canadian wrestler but couldn’t guess who because the other Canadians who travelled over had already wrestled on the undercard. Uno couldn’t afford that but had a friend in Japan willing to team with him. It was Kikutaro! Uno also expected Brookes to have a Japanese tag partner except Brookes admitted he got a Canadian wrestler instead… El Phantasmo! The match was chaotic and full of nonsense that ended up bringing in plastic boxes and firecrackers. Brookes filled up one box with the firecrackers and ELP smashed Uno through it with the CR II to win the match. Brookes then sprayed everyone with a fire extinguisher after the match.

MAO and Fuminori Abe didn’t want to blow the roof off with their match but they almost fell through it! They fought their way outside the building up to the roof where there is a glass ceiling overlooking ARENA Shimokitazawa. They carefully put each other in submission holds while avoiding taking any impactful steps onto the glass. They made their way back down to the room safe and sound but now MAO wanted to try and make Abe throw up. A Thrust Kick to the stomach made Abe gag out some fluid and go double over, allowing MAO to cradle him with an Onryo Clutch to get the win.

The two other Mystery Wrestling talents involved in the show were HADDY & Junior Benito. No matter what experiences they had in Mystery Wrestling before, they had to expect the unexpected against Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. Or in this case they had to expect the expected because when does Honda wrestle a match without ever doing a Gongitsune joke these days? Honda told his joke in English so they could understand but they still got their eyes poked after it. Things went wrong for Honda & Hiroshi when their Double Bionic Elbow spot hit each other instead of their opponents. HADDY took advantage and pulled Honda down into the Crossface to make him tap out.

Mystery Wrestling has also worked with ChocoPro in the past so it was only fitting for the BestBros to have a match on this show. Baliyan Akki & Mei Suruga had to not only fight off Dark King Ueki & Princess Ram but had to worry about the injured Munek interfering with his magic spells. And by magic spells I mean hitting Akki in the back with his crutch. Kaichow dealt with that by grabbing the magic wand off Munek to redirect one of his spells into Ueki and she then snapped the wand in half. The BestBros then pinned Ueki with the Dolphin Press which is impressive given the very tight space inside that bar.

6. DDT Extreme Title – Soccer Vs Sumo! Mixed Martial Arts “ITACHI” Rules: To-y (c) Vs Yuki Ishida

After spending the week arguing with each other over not picking any DDT Extreme Title rules, To-y and Yuki Ishida have decided on mixing two sports together for the stipulation. The match will be Soccer Vs Sumo where only items relating to either sport are permitted to be used as weapons. Sumo is Yuki Ishida’s sport of course while To-y had a background in playing football before he became a pro wrestler.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “PRELUDE TO GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 07/03/2026

6. Miu Watanabe, Toga & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Arai, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki

Something to keep an eye on as we continue building up towards Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai is if there will be more damage done to Watanabe’s lower back. She is well aware of how much Arai is relying on the Scorpion Death Lock as her kill move lately.

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE 2026”, 07/03/2026

1. Shigehiro Irie Vs Shota Kawakami

Shoko Nakajima has been called in from Tokyo Joshi Pro to give YuuRI a match, Sentaro Motoshima is going to take on GanPro’s former two time champion Yumehito Imanari and Shota Kawakami is going to have to avoid getting crushed by Shigehiro Irie’s Cannonball attacks.

SUPER JAPAN “JUDGEMENT”, 24/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Fuminori Abe
2. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Kazunari Murakami
3. Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Poison Sawada JULIE

It doesn’t matter what alternate timeline we are in, Sanshiro Takagi and Poison Sawada JULIE are still going to feud with each other. They have been enemies in DDT for a long time but it’s been 17 years since their last singles match against each other apparently. Super Japan gets the honour of reviving the matchup.

Super Japan is also pitting their ace Yuji Nagata against Fuminori Abe in a first time singles bout. They’ve already wrestled each other in two of the previous three Super Japan shows.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Mizuki Vs Andreza Giant Panda
2. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Hyper Misao & Super Sasadango Machine
3. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Suzume
4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
5. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Just when the mystery was getting good, the perpetrator has come out and admitted the crime. The indy wrestling outfit New Nemuro Pro Wrestling sent a video to TJPW taking the credit for stealing Mizuki’s Pico Pico Hammer while leaving behind an American flag as a red herring. New Nemuro’s most famous wrestler Andreza Giant Panda was memorably hit over the head by Mizuki with her hammer back in 2024 in a moment that went viral across the internet due to how photogenic it was. Andreza was left humiliated by what happened and Shin Nemuro felt that their reputation was tarnished over it too. Ever since that moment Andreza had been waiting on an opportunity to get his revenge. Thus Mizuki’s hammer got stolen and Andreza has challenged her to a singles match at Sumo Hall!

11. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament – 3 Way Decision Match: Fuminori Abe defeated Yasu Urano and Ilusion when Abe pinned Urano with an Onryo Clutch (9:44).

Final Score

1. Yasu Urano (4)
-. Fuminori Abe (4)
-. Ilusion (4)
4. Ikuto Hidaka (3)
-. Ayato Yoshida (3)

Yasu Urano has been feeling ambitious lately. After holding two of his own shows last year built around multiple fall matches, he decided to hold a one day Iron Man round robin tournament. The theme was to include two wrestlers aged in their 50’s, two in their 30’s and one in his 20’s so the lineup became Urano (who had just turned 50 earlier this month), Ikuto Hidaka, Fuminori Abe, Ayato Yoshida and Ilusion. Every match in the round robin was a 10 minute Iron Man match with every winning fall scoring one point. At the end of tournament all of the match results were added up and the wrestler with the highest total score was the winner.

At the end of the round robin there was a three way tie for first place. Urano, Abe and Ilusion had all scored 4 falls in their matches while Hidaka and Yoshida were left with regret over ending the tournament in a 0-0 draw that put both of them out of the running. The ring announcer Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi revealed that a sudden death 3 Way Match would decided the winner of the tournament. With many three way spots and pin attempts tiring everybody out, Abe inadvertantly knocked out Ilusion with a Rabbit Punch aimed for Urano. That ended up working in Abe’s favour though because when he caught Urano in the Manjigatame, Ilusion wasn’t there to break the hold and Abe was free to turn it into a pinfall on Urano to be crowned the tournament winner.

7. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro Vs Yuki Arai, HIMAWARI & Toga

And then there’s the Tokyo Joshi Pro show over in Shoko Nakajima’s home area. Sadly she won’t have the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title with her anymore. She lost it to Shotzi Blackheart at the MLW taping over the weekend.

DDT “NEPPA OVER FLOWERS 5 ~THE ONLY SAUNA IN THE WORLD~”, 14/02/2026

5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Pokotan (w/ Chris Bathooks, Naya Tonttu & Sauna Stones・Den)
6. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y

A rib injury from over the weekend has taken Daichi Sato out of action for around at least a fortnight. He will miss the next three DDT shows which means he should be back sometime after 22nd February. Yuya Koroku replaces him on this show.

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2026 ~AYU COLISEUM IN ATSUGI~”, 15/02/2026
Kanagawa Rembrandt Hotel Atsugi Grand Banquet Sagami

4. MAO, KANON & Yukio Naya (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Akito & Junta Miyawaki
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Jun Akiyama Vs Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda
6. O-40 Title – 4 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs HARASHIMA Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga

The next day Sanshiro Takagi steps in to replace Sato in Match #4.

DDT “HYBRID PERFORMER 2026 ~KAISEI TAKECHI 2ND ANNIVERSARY~”, 22/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai Vs To-y, Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuni
2. Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Naya Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Ryoma Tsukamoto
3. DAMNATION T.A Vs Harimao!: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion Vs Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida

5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, KANON & X (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Akito
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – Final: Kazuma Sumi Vs Takeshi Masada
7. Kaisei Takechi 2nd Anniversary Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kaisei Takechi

In the short history of the D GENERATIONS CUP we may get its first two-time winner. Takeshi Masada has a chance to win it a second time after being the first ever winner back in 2023. However Kazuma Sumi is riding a wave of momentum going into the final and seems to have more locker room support than the recently gone loner Masada.

Sumi being in the final rips apart my theory that he is the new member of Strange Love Connection.

Ryoma Tsukamoto makes an unexpected appearance to fill in for Daichi Sato.

Finally all four members of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC are all teaming together.

The match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet.

“URANO EN 3”, 24/02/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Fuminori Abe
2. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Ilusion
3. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Fuminori Abe Vs Ayato Yoshida
4. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Ilusion
5. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Ayato Yoshida
6. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Fuminori Abe Vs Ilusion
7. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Ayato Yoshida
8. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Fuminori Abe
9. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ayato Yoshida Vs Ilusion
10. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Yasu Urano

Something extra BASARA related with a little bit of DDT there too. Yasu Urano is putting together a one day Round Robin tournament between himself, Ikuto Hidaka, Ayato Yoshida, Fuminori Abe and Ilusion. Urano chose that lineup because he wanted two wrestlers in their 50s, two in their 30s and one in his 20s. But here’s the catch. Every match is an Iron Man match, ten in total!

DDT “KO KO! YOKOHAMA BATTLE 2026”, 28/02/2026
Kanagawa Radiant Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Yuki Ishida

The aftermath of the DGC group stages left To-y in bad humour because Yuki Ishida was partially responsible for him failing to win the A Block. That then led to To-y bringing up the time Ishida got drunk on a night out and To-y had to pay his tab of 40,000 yen. He figured out a DDT Extreme Title match between the two can settle the matter. If To-y wins then not only does he defend his championship but Ishida will have to pay him back the 40,000 yen!

GANBARE☆PRO “KINKI CHIHO NO ARU BASHO NI TSUITE 2026”, 01/03/2026
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

More Osaka based wrestlers will be there when Ganbare☆Pro comes to town. Yuto Kikuchi, Violence Dragon and Sora Fujikawa are the male wrestlers added to the show. Also from outside of Osaka comes Tsuyoshi Okada, Kyusei Ninja Ranmaru and Hibiscus Mii.


Sasaki Wants DDT To Be More Like WCW, Takechi Pulled From This Sunday’s Show, Super Japan Getting Will Be Judged

January 23, 2026

DDT “MISSION IN BATTLE ~SHINSHUN KENRAN~”, 25/01/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Junta Miyawaki
2. Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku, Yuni, Rukiya & Hinata Kasai Vs Ryuma Tsukamoto, Daichi Sato, Yuki Ishida, Ilusion & Kazuma Sumi
3. Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul Vs Naomi Yoshimura & Kumadori
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Yoshihiko Return Match: Minoru Suzuki, Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko Vs Super Sasadango Machine, Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
5. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Jun Akiyama Vs HARASHIMA & To-y
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya
7. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title – Irregular 3 Way Match: Yuki Ueno (c/c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Chris Brookes

There’s going to be some changes in DDT if Daisuke Sasaki gets his way and wins more championships. He currently holds the O-40 Title and wants to create a DDT Triple Crown by winning both the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title. Then he won’t have to defend the belts against anyone under the age of forty and DDT will start to resemble the final years of WCW. Sasaki is fond of that period because the shows would always end with interferences and he was also looked up to Scott Hall for being an alcoholic. Sasaki admits he always finds negative things to be cool. Should Sasaki achieve the “Triple Crown” and only fights other wrestlers over forty, he theorizes that he will then have the likes of Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar as potential challengers because right now DDT hasn’t been lining up opponents for his O-40 Title. WWE hasn’t responded to his requests though. Sasaki also doesn’t like how Yuki Ueno and Chris Brookes are drawing in bigger audiences of young women to the shows. He would prefer the audience to be full of older men who look like Tetsu Inada.

Stage actress Yuzuki Hoshimoto will be in attendance to second the Strange Love Connection in the KO-D Tag Team Titles match. She previously appeared in DDT with the team at last November’s Korakuen Hall show.

The big draw of the show has gone down! Kaisei Takechi has been pulled from the show because he currently has an infectious case of pink eye. He will now be replaced by To-y in the big tag match also featuring HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita and Jun Akiyama. That also means To-y has been plucked out of the 10-Man Tag Match. Ryoma Tsukamoto has been called in to take his place in that bout.

GANBARE☆PRO “NEW YEAR’S BLUES 2026”, 31/01/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Sentaro Motoshima Vs Akira Shoji
2. Moeka Haruhi Vs Choun Shiryu
3. Yuna Manase & YuuRI Vs Chanyota & Non Toraga
4. Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase Vs Fuminori Abe & Shota Kawakami
5. Yumehito Imanari & Keisuke Ishii Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Shinichiro Tominaga

The tag match pitting Ganbare☆Joshi against P.P.P. Tokyo will be Non Toraga’s first appearance in Ganbare☆Pro.

More details on Munetatsu Nakamura’s neck injury have come to light. He has been diagnosed with a herniated cervical disc and will not return to action until 7th March at the earliest. Even then that could be delayed if he does not get cleared by his doctor.

SUPER JAPAN “JUDGEMENT”, 24/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Kazunari Murakami

History will repeat itself with Sanshiro Takagi’s alternate history spin off. At the end of 2025 he felt the time was right to end the Super Japan project because thr year long celebration of his 30th Anniversary in wrestling had been completed. However his appointed ace of the promotion Yuji Nagata revealed that he had Shinjuku FACE booked for 24th March for a show of his own and decided that it should go to Super Japan instead so it could either continue or at least give everyone a proper farewell. Taking a page out of DDT’s beginning all the way back in 1997, Takagi decided that this upcoming show in March will end with a fan vote on whether or not Super Japan should continue. “JUDGEMENT” was the name of that very first DDT show in ’97 so it is only fitting for the name to be used here as well. Now we have to see if history will repeat itself.

The first match announced is an intriguing pro wrestling match between MMA backgrounds. Shinya Aoki faces Kazunari Murakami, the man with perhaps the most surliest face you will ever see in pro wrestling. He tends to be a snappy dresser too.

Names currently scheduled for the show include Yuji Nagata, Sanshiro Takagi, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan, Fuminori Abe and Munenori Sawa.

2025 came to a close with the final show of Super Japan, perhaps maybe ever. Except it turns out the sub-brand has a future after all, at least heading into 2026. It’s all thanks to Super Japan’s ace Yuji Nagata. First he led his team to victory in the main event. He fought fire with fire by using the crazy energy of Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe to combat the crazy team energy of Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Munenori Sawa. Nagata and Kasai spent just as much time dueling each other with their salute poses while Takagi and Abe brawled over at the Shinjuku FACE counter. Kasai pulled out a bundle of skewers and Kuroshio tried to physically stop him from using them. He failed and Kasai got to dig the skewers into Nagata’s head while Nagata held Takagi in the Arm Lock. That only made Nagata apply more pressure to the submission hold though and Takagi had to give up from the extra intensity his tag partner inadvertedly created.

After the match Takagi thanked everyone for the match and said his year long celebration of his 30th Anniversary in wrestling has finally come to an end. He told the others to show their appreciation to Nagata and the five of them all bowed to him. Nagata asked Takagi if this was really the end of Super Japan because after everything Takagi put him through during the project it shouldn’t end just like that. Takagi said he doesn’t have a venue booked for another show so there is nothing he can do about it. Nagata then revealed that he has Shinjuku FACE booked for 24th March and he’ll let Takagi use it for the next Super Japan date! Takagi accepted the offer so Super Japan can return next year! It will even have a familiar event name: “JUDGEMENT”. Takagi then asked Nagata to do the Nagata Dance with everyone in the ring so they can end the show on an even higher note.

For one night only The Sailor Boys reunited although none of them had any intentions of actually reliving the gimmick. Instead The Brahman Brothers interrupted the entrance song “Keep On Journey” so they could bring their usual deranged wrestling style to the table. Taiji Ishimori was willing to go along for the ride and join in the brawl against the opposing team of Toryumon/Dragon Gate linked wrestlers. Shuji Kondo had the power to fight back but a missed Lariat ended up hitting his partners Ken Ohka & Mac Matsushita by mistake instead. The Brahmans then beat up Matsushita with a traffic sign before Ishimori could make him give up to the Bone Lock. Ishimori also had black goo pouring out of his mouth while he was applying his finisher. After the match The Brahmans announced that The Sailor Boys are disbanding and will go back to being regular pro wrestlers. However they might reunite with Ishimori and team up again in twenty years time.

Back in their DDT days MIKAMI and Takashi Sasaki were often seen as rivals to each other. But given this is an alternate take to the early years of DDT, here in Super Japan they’ve been paired together as a tag team. They took on a revival of an old DDT gimmick called “Showa” with somebody claiming to be the second generation of the masked wrestler showing up with a second similar looking wrestler named “Reiwa” as his tag team partner. The DDT originals won out in the end with MIKAMI countering a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch from “Showa” II into a Heisei-Style School Boy for the three count.

Match #2 ended in a No Contest when Muscle Sakai and DJ Nira coaxed the referee Ishiguro into taking part in the action. At several points in the match the room would go dark and when the lights came back on, Sakai and Nira would swap positions. The spot ended up with Ishiguro unexpectedly finding himself on the top turnbuckle where he decided to do a Diving Cross Body onto the wrestlers and then stomp on them in the corner until the match was called off.

Let’s give it up for Chris Brookes making it to 18 years in the wrestling business! Let’s give it up to Baka Gaijin + Friends for making it to three years too. The third anniversary for this island of misfit toys was held away from the usual home of ARENA Shimokitazawa. They went for a bigger room this time by going to Shinjuku FACE but still held the show without a ring to keep it as the genuine article.

The main event was Brookes taking on someone who was kept a mystery to the fans until it was time for his entrance. It was Zack Sabre Jr.! The name of the bout was “A Match Of Hate?” and the two showed no mercy to each other by fighting amongst the crowd. Sabre’s close friend Antonio Honda had no choice but to do the rubber band spot to him while Brookes also dropped a child onto Sabre’s prone body afterwards. Sabre got some of his own licks in by Back Body Dropping Brookes onto the venue’s counter before bringing him back to the centre of the room to further pick Brookes apart. The two continued to go back and forth until Brookes gave Sabre the Praying Mantis Bomb and the bell rang to signal a time limit draw.

The action didn’t stop there because after the match MAO interrupted Brookes on the microphone and started arguing with him. Mr. Bueno ran down to bring peace but was left insulted when Sabre told him to fuck off. Everyone then started telling each other to fuck off until MAO & Bueno agreed to fight Brookes & Sabre, starting an impromptu bonus tag match! More chaotic brawling followed and screeched to a halt when Sabre tripped over the mat and hurt his knee. Honda got on the microphone to tell a Gongitsune joke only for MAO to stop him. MAO then summoned all of the other wrestlers on the show to lead a train attack at Sabre seated in the remains of the front row. That ended when Minoemon stopped himself in front of Sabre to tell him he was Minoru Suzuki in disguise! The two hugged and launched a counter attack on everyone, Brookes included. Their rampage was stopped with a fire extinguisher attack from Takagi Sanshirobo, which then resulted in Takayuki Ueki & Munetatsu Nakamura entering the room as cops. They suddenly held everyone at gunpoint threatening to shut the show down. MAO disarmed Nakamura but tragedy struck during the scramble to get the other gun from Ueki. Brookes succeeded in grabbing the gun but accidentally shot Sabre in the process! Brookes cradled the wounded Sabure in his arms until Sabre fainted. Out of desperation, Brookes charged the other team only to get knocked out by MAO’s Hurricane Kick. Bueno then threw Takeshi Masada on top of Brookes and ordered all of the other wrestlers to form a pyramid for him to climb. From the top of the pyramid, Bueno thanked the fans and jumped off to hit a Diving Body Press onto Masada and Brookes. He then pinned Brookes for the victory. After the match Brookes revived Sabre by pouring a can of beer into his mouth.

The stakes were high for the fated singles battle between Mr. Malo and Mr. Bueno. First, the BK-G Openweight Title held by Malo was on the line. Not only that but the loser of the match would have to unmask! Bueno had Malo’s cheating scouted yet respectfully kept allowing Malo to get back to his feet so they could fight on even terms. His good sportsmanship almost blew the match for him when Malo used the ref Daisuke Kiso to shield himself and then Low Blow his opponent after Kiso was thrown aside. But Bueno kicked out of a DDT and the Unprettier. He then got his momnentum back through a series of cradles that ended with him pinning Malo with a Hurricanrana to win the championship! Still, Bueno was too much of a good person to unmask his opponent afterwards, instead allowing Malo to take off the mask himself. Malo placed his poncho over his head and pulled the mask off. He then removed the poncho to reveal he is now wearing a white mask instead of his black on. Bueno couldn’t believe what he saw until he found the words to tell everyone what he was looking at… “My brother? I thought you died. I’m so happy!” The two brothers, now united, hugged to the applause of everyone in the room.

The Great Baka Mecha Wars couldn’t wait for all of the participants to be involved before it began. Mecha MAO and Takagi Sanshirobo immediately went to fight each other but soon the third fighter appeared. It was Minoemon, who as mentioned above was Minoru Suzuki disguised as the anime character Doraemon. He sat around with a bag of groceries, drinking beer and eating dorayaki until the other two robots attacked him. Minoemon and Sanshirobo brawled in the crowd while Mecha MAO stacked up some plastic cases and set out a table on top of them in the middle of the room. Mecha MAO and Sanshirobo then formed their own Megazord combination but it was all ruined when Minoemon poured water over the both of them. Mecha MAO short circuited around the room while Minoemon gave Sanshirobo the Gotch-Style Piledriver through the table and plastic cases to win the Mecha War.

The Brahman Brothers made a mess of their own with their match against Ueki’s Magic Kingdom. Things were made even worse when Karate Brahman decided to wipe natto all over his head. Dark King Ueki, Munek & Princess Ram all getting blinded with powder after that counts as a mercy killing in my book. I guess the damsel in distress who was kidnapped by the kingdom before the match was rescued as a result but it was anything but happy ever after.

Three members of the Daisetz band teamed up with one of their adoring fans in an 8-Man Tag Match. Chie Koishikawa was running around waving lightsticks for Antonio Honda, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Hagane Shinno during their entrance. Facing them were the international foursome of Baliyan Akki from India, Shivam & Jonathan Johnson from Thailand and Sayaka from Japan. The two sides ended up getting into a Bionic Elbow duel. Everything then broke down until the Egg Tart team of Shinno & Koishikawa double cradled Sayaka for the pinfall.

The show opened with Shunma Katsumata announcing a Baka Battle Royal full of surprise entrants. Fuminori Abe and HARASHIMA started things off then were quickly joined by Shota and K4PY. Then Kota Sekifuda appeared carrying a large snake! He chased the wrestlers into the crowd where Abe picked up a child to hold up near the snake. HARASHIMA forced Abe to apologise while Sekifuda continued scaring everyone with his pet, even making Yukinori Matsui tap out even though he wasn’t part of the match. HARASHIMA finally put a stop to things by putting Sekifuda in a Cobra Twist while the snake was twisting itself around Sekifuda. He gave up and was the first elimination from the match. Shota was the next one gone when he and Takeshi Masada fought over a Backslide Pin. Abe kicked Masada in the stomach, unintentionally helping him roll Shota over for the pinfall. Suddenly danger happened when Dr. Cube entered the Battel along with two Kaiju from his posse: Erebus & Eargernon II. Together they ran wild on the other wrestlers and eliminated Abe, Masada and K4PY all at once. HARASHIMA showed shades of HERO! in trying to fight Dr Cube’s Posse off but he too also fell to them. It was all up to Shin Suzuki to save the day as the final entrant. He grabbed Dr. Cube’s helmet and twisted it off, removing his grisly face beneath and knocking him out with a neck snap in the process. He then pinned Erebus with the Takatonic to fully eliminate the Posse, making him the last man standing.
