DDT “DDT FREE -JANUARY-”, 07/01/2022
Shinjuku FACE
233 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Antonio Honda & MAO when Owashi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (9:55).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: MAO defeated Toru Owashi (c) with a School Boy (7:16 pm).
*MAO becomes the 1,528th champion.
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Super Sasadango Machine, Kazuki Hirata & Shunma Katsumata ended in a No Contest (12:57).
3. Saki Akai & Akito defeated Maya Yukihi & Yuki Ishida when Akito submitted Ishida with a Sasori-Gatame (9:01).
4. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Yoshihiko with the Praying Mantis Bomb through a Table (13:15).
5. HARASHIMA & Yuji Hino defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when HARASHIMA pinned Okatani with the Somato (12:09).
6. Special Tag Match: Minoru Fujita & Soma Takao defeated Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul when Fujita pinned Paul with the Modified Samson Clutch (12:24).
7. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & Toui Kojima when Koroku submitted Kojima with a Chickenwing Arm Lock (24:12).
The result of the main event is a little reminder that BURNING is not just about Tetsuya Endo. It was Yuya Koroku who picked up the win for the first time in his 9 month long career by making Toui Kojima submit. Koroku didn’t join the unit just to be Endo’s or Jun Akiyama’s henchman. He wants to put himself out there and reach for the top! Meanwhile Endo & Akiyama declared their intention to win the Ultimate Tag League and Endo promised to be the last man standing at Sumo Hall at the 25th Anniversary show! Meanwhile Konosuke Takeshita mentioned he will have nothing to say if he & Yuki Ueno don’t reach the Tag League final.
The DDT Universal Title match is just around the corner and Minoru Fujita showed he is in good enough shape for the champion. Fujita won the tag match by rolling up MJ Paul with the Samson Clutch. His message to Daisuke Sasaki was to sleep well and eat well before they fight for the title in Yokohama. Sasaki is happy to see the dirty fighter version of Fujita reappear because that is who he wants to wrestle against.
Maya Yukihi told Saki Akai a personal story about her first attempted entry into pro wrestling. Yukihi was always a DDT fan and approached the company eight years ago wanting to become a wrestler. She was turned down. So when she saw Akai join DDT and have her debut match with the company around the same time period, she felt an ugly jealousy towards her. But the rejection sent Yukihi on the path towards joshi wrestling and she made her career through that direction instead. So as a proud joshi, Yukihi challenged Akai to a singles match in a DDT ring. Akai accepted the match and asked for it to take place in either Shinjuku FACE or Korakuen Hall. Instead Sanshiro Takagi decided to book it for Sumo Hall! He apologised to Yukihi for DDT rejecting her all those years ago. Akai told her what an important milestone it is for a singles match between two women to take place at the 25th Anniversary show. Yukihi said she will put all that she’s done in joshi to the test against her.
Chris Brookes knew he was in for the fight of his life against Yoshihiko and wasted no time going in for the attack. He left the doll beaten and battered outside the ring hoping to get a countout win by Yoshihiko dragged itself back into the ring. Drew Parker set up a table and Brookes put Yoshihiko through it with the Praying Mantis Bomb to finally end the match. The hellacious fight ended with the two earning each other’s respect and they shook hands afterwards. Backstage Brookes called Yoshihiko the strongest wrestler in DDT but he had the stronger desire to win.
The DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi is sick of seeing Pheromones getting away with their antics and putting the live broadcasts at risk. He hatched a plan with their opponents before the match. He noticed that every match Pheromones wins involves their butts getting exposed so preventing that will increase their chances of losing. Imabayashi himself got involved by grabbing hold of Yuki Iino’s tights so he wouldn’t pull them down. However Danshoku Dieno then grabbed Imabayashi’s pants and pulled them down. The match got called off when Imabayashi was thrown face first into Iino’s backside. Dieno called this a New Year’s gift from Pheromones. They are entering the Ultimate Tag League and promise to drag all opponents down to their level.
MAO winning the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title means we’re going to see that belt get passed around during the Tag League.
Super Sasadango Machine announced that Hiragana Muscle will hold five shows in three days at Kitazawa Town Hall from 29th to 31st March. All five shows count as “HIRAGANA MUSCLE 6”.

Also Kyoraku Kyomei are teaming up before their annual singles match against each other. Let’s bring out one of the most overused questions in wrestling from this year. Can they co-exist?!?
DDT “NEVER MIND 2021 IN YOYOGI”, 26/12/2021
Yoyogi National Stadium 2nd Gymnasium
0. Dark Match: Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya Vs Antonio Honda & Hideki Okatani

6. DDT Universal Title – BLACKOUT Presents: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles – WRESTLE UNIVERSE Presents: HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Yuji Hino & Bodyguard
8. KO-D Openweight Title – Yanekabe Presents: Konosuke Takeshita (c) Vs Yuji Okabayashi
Not long to go now until Konosuke Takeshita and Yuji Okabayashi settle the score. The recent DDT Vs Big Japan trios match reminded Takeshita of the upcoming New Japan Vs NOAH show on 8th January. It makes him think it is time for DDT and Big Japan to show their will with their own competition. Okabayashi expects to have a long battle for the KO-D Openweight Title so he promises not to cut any corners. If Okabayashi becomes champion he is looking forward to defending the title against a lot of DDT wrestlers and beating them all down. Kenta Kobashi will be in attendance to observe and provide commentary for the main event.
Yuji Hino is already envisioning what he and Bodyguard will look like carrying the KO-D Tag Team Titles. That’s not to say he doesn’t think HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura are bad champions, just that the belts will look better on him and his tag partner. HARASHIMA thinks he and Naomi Yoshimura are still the better team and it is up to them to prove it by defending the titles. Yoshimura hates to lose which means the last few weeks have been unpleasant for him. The one thing keeping him focused is the progress he made fighting against Hino. He is no longer afraid of him. When Hino heard that he responded that he’s been a little too gentle up until now and he will make Yoshimura regret those words.
The attacks Daisuke Sasaki and Masahiro Takanashi have been giving to each other have not slowed down. It’s continuing to happen inside and outside the ring. Sasaki even attacked Takanashi at a ChocoPro show earlier this month. Poor Baliyan Akki keeps getting caught in the crossfire too. Takanashi made Akki attend a contract signing in disguise to lure out Sasaki, expecting the DDT Universal Champion to launch an ambush. The plan worked and Takanashi attacked Sasaki with his own ambush. In the aftermath of that recent fight, Sasaki said he is going to take over Ichigaya Chocolate Square and force ChocoPro to pay him the rent from now on!
Recently Super Sasadango Machine asked for his match against Pheromones to be for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles but a decision was never made. Then earlier this week he accused the GM Hisaya Imabayashi of demanding 20-30 million yen to be paid into a slush fund in return for getting the title shot. Sasadango claims to have a 30 minute audio recording of the blackmail attempt and offered to destroy the evidence in return for the title shot. Imabayashi doesn’t think this is good behavior for a person who became the face of Nagoya wrestling but on the other hand he admires his spirit. Therefore the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles will be on the line.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2021 TOUR IN MAEBASHI”, 11/12/2021
Gunma YAMADA Green Dome Maebashi Sub-Event Area
176 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata when Iino pinned Hirata after The Bridge Of Glory (11:24).
2. DDT Megatonweight Single Match: Yuji Hino defeated Yukio Naya with the Fuckin’ BOMB (8:41).
3. 3 Way Match: Shunma Katsumata defeated Jun Akiyama and Hideki Okatani when Katsumata pinned Okatani after the Exploder Suplex from Akiyama (7:56).
4. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated MAO & Yuya Koroku when Sasaki submitted Koroku with the Crossface Lock (11:50).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yoshiaki Yatsu, Tetsuya Endo & Akito defeated Toru Owashi, Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Yatsu submitted Ishida with the Prison Hold (12:30).
6. Maebashi Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Naomi Yoshimura & Chris Brookes defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & Toui Kojima when HARASHIMA pinned Kojima with the Somato (21:17).
The hometown hero today was Gunma’s own Yoshiaki Yatsu. He was nervous but the match went without a hitch thanks to help from Tetsuya Endo & Akito. Yatsu hit Yuki Ishida with the Yatsugoye/Iron Knee and made him tap to the Prison Hold. He is sure the result made fans happy and will get them all to return next time DDT comes by.
Before the opening match took place, Kazuki Hirata got on the microphone and declared he was beginning another revolution in Maebashi! He wanted Yuki Iino to join his side but Iino refused. Antonio Honda was up for it and promised to defeat Pheromones under Hirata’s leadership. He then tripped over and hurt his knee. Hisaya Imabayashi got dragged into the match and got embarrassed alongside Hirata. The end came with The Bridge Of Glory, a double team move where Iino & Danshoku Dieno sandwich the victim’s between their butts until they submit. Although Hirata lost, everyone still carried him on their shoulders to celebrate his attempted revolution.

Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall
1. Special Single Match – DDT Vs Dera Beppin Pro Wrestling: Saki Akai Vs Papillon Akemi
2. Hardcore Match: Shunma Katsumata Vs Hyper Misao
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Susumu Yokosuka, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Akito
4. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Current Blast Death Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari (c) Vs Atsushi Onita, Sanshiro Takagi & Kuro-chan
The bad blood between Pheromones and The Kuronita Army is getting hotter. Atsushi Onita thinks his team are a lock to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles so he got himself, Sanshiro Takagi and Hisaya Imabayashi (unwillingly standing in for Kuro-chan) to pose with the belts at the press conference. Danshoku Dieno brought up concerns that Imabayashi will interrupt the match and cancel it like he always do. Pheromones attacked Imabayashi to send a warning to their challengers. Onita rescued him and sent Pheromones fleeing. Imabayashi promised to give The Kuronita Army a year end bonus as thanks if they win the titles from Pheromones.
DDT “NEVER MIND 2021 IN YOYOGI”, 26/12/2021
Yoyogi National Stadium 2nd Gymnasium
0. Dark Match – DDTeeeen!! Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Vent Vert Jack
1. Special Single Match: Shuji Kondo Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Yukio Sakaguchi Return Match: Yukio Sakaguchi Vs X
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Yuji Hino & Bodyguard
4. DDT Universal Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) Vs Yuji Okabayashi
The final big DDT show of 2021 has its title matches decided. Konosuke Takeshita and Yuji Okabayashi have their rematch, this time with the KO-D Openweight Title is on the line. Their D-Ou Grand Prix match ended in a 30 minute draw but the rematch will have a 60 minute limit. Kenta Kobashi was a fan of that match and hopes the rematch will be just as exciting. There also won’t be a lot of opportunities for Takeshita and Okabayashi to wrestle each other before the show because Okabayashi has his own schedule with Big Japan keeping him busy.
With his grudge against Soma Takao out of the way, Daisuke Sasaki faces an unlikely next challenger. Masahiro Takanashi gets a DDT Universal Title match on the recommendation of his friend Chris Brookes. Sasaki thought Takanashi had retired and went to work somewhere in Ichigaya. But he was convinced to put the title on the line against him.
The new powerhouse team of Yuji Hino & Bodyguard challenge DISASTER BOX for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. This is coming off of a poor tournament for both HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura. HARASHIMA finished with zero wins while Yoshimura lost to both Hino & Bodyguard in their block. Even if having no momentum wasn’t a problem, the champions still have two big mountains to climb.
No injury is going to stop Yukio Sakaguchi for long.
Minoru Suzuki and Maku Donaruto will be on the show. Imagine if they get paired together.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’22”, 04/01/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. International Princess Title: Hikari Noa (c) Vs Maki Itoh
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Mizuki
Two years ago Maki Itoh defended the International Princess Title against Hikari Noa on 4th January. Two years later the match will happen again but this time the roles are flipped. Noa is the champion looking to extend her record setting title reign and get one step closer towards defending it in a death match. Itoh however believes the belt belongs to her because of her international fame and it should not be turned into a death match championship.

0. Dark Match: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda, Akito & Yusuke Okada defeated Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura, Kazuki Hirata, Saki Akai & Yuki Ishida when Brookes pinned Hirata with the Praying Mantis Bomb (6:29).

6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Yuki Ueno (6) defeated Tetsuya Endo (6) with the WR (21:21).
A Block
1. Yuki Ueno (6)
-. Tetsuya Endo (6)
-. Yuji Hino (6)
-. Jun Akiyama (6)
5. Bodyguard (4)
6. Naomi Yoshimura (2)
B Block
1. Konosuke Takeshita (9)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (8)
3. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
-. Chris Brookes (4)
-. MAO (4)
6. HARASHIMA (1)
The D-Ou Grand Prix final comes down to two classmates from the same stable. All week Tetsuya Endo talked lightly about Yuki Ueno, thinking a victory over him was certain. Instead Ueno had other plans and he blocked the Shooting Star Press with his knees. The Dropkick to the face hit its mark but Endo fired back with one of his own. Ueno also stood firm and hit another Dropkick before putting Endo in the WR for the big win. The A Block finished with four wrestlers all tied in first but the Head To Head results ultimately determined Ueno as the winner advancing to the final! He would agree that this is a great achievement that’s worth praise. Endo on the other hand now feels he has nowhere to go. He isn’t going back to DAMNATION T.A because he doesn’t want anything to do with the guy in charge of that ever again. In 2022 he will go on a journey to become a new Tetsuya Endo!
Over in the B Block there was no tiebreaker needed for first place. Konosuke Takeshita completes the group stage undefeated with a successful blitz on Kazusada Higuchi. The two wasted no time and went throwing big bombs at each other. Takeshita threw out the Zahi knee strike and brought back the Surprise Rose to win in quick fashion. That is a move Takeshita has purposely held back from using because it is dangerous for him to do. But Higuchi is an opponent he felt he needed to use it against. Higuchi called the match a disappointing result but one he will take as a lesson for the future.
So now finally Ueno gets to stand face to face against Takeshita again. He’s seen his friend wrestle ever since they were in high school and that lead to Ueno falling in love with DDT. Ueno has gotten strong over the last five years and he’ll do his best to beat Takeshita in the final on 5th December. Takeshita is happy that Ueno will be his opponent for a Korakuen Hall main event. He encourages Ueno to try and go beyond him because they will have a match that only they can put together.
For Yuji Okabayashi it was a case of so close yet so far. He also went through the entire tournament undefeated but two draws keep him away from reaching the final. The time limit stalemate here gives HARASHIMA a little bit of redemption. All throughout the grand prix he’s been telling people he is in great shape despite a horrible run of defeat after defeat. Being able to fight Okabayashi for 30 minutes without losing is proof he can still go and he is confident he can do better. He wants to keep looking forward, aiming higher and win again. Okabayashi feels HARASHIMA’s love for DDT. It is that persistence that prevented the Big Japan wrestler from getting his rematch with Takeshita. Speaking of that, Okabayashi is now rooting for Takeshita to win the final. If he loses, Okabayashi will come back to kill him!
Jun Akiyama did what he could do to catch up but his win over Bodyguard wasn’t enough to push him over the line. Akiyama blocked the Rising High Kick, hit the Kneelift and then another one with his exposed knee. That only got a one count. Akiyama then threw Bodyguard over with the Exploder but that got a two count. Akiyama had to hit more Running Knee Lifts and then use the Wrist-Clutch Exploder to finally put Bodyguard away. Bodyguard was impressed by Akiyama’s strength and thinks he is moving faster than he was back in All Japan. If DDT wants to invite him back, he will work harder, rebuild his body and compete again.
Oh no, what did Pheromones do this time? Danshoku Dieno & Yuki Iino used their skills to put Yuji Hino, MAO & Yukio Naya all in compromising positions. When Yumehito Imanari grabbed his camera and began to film them, Hisaya Imabayashi ordered the match to be called off. Imabayashi singled out Imanari to blame this time and called him the root of all evil. The GM knows just who to call to come over and destroy him. It’s Shinya Aoki!
A video played of Aoki nominating Imanari as the next DDT Extreme Title challenger and the stipulation is no seconds are allowed at ringside. The match will go ahead in Shinjuku FACE on 12th December. Imanari noticed that when Aoki says the word indie it sounds like he is saying indecent. The press may misreport that the match will be lewd because of that. So Imanari promised that even without his friends at ringside, the match is going to get lewd!
The grudge between Daisuke Sasaki and Soma Takao got even dirtier when they attacked each other after the opening match. With Mizuki Watase already beaten, MJ Paul grabbed onto Takao and held him down. Sasaki then brought out a bag of dog food and claimed he kept this for over ten years. “I’ll never forget the dog food you made me eat!” he shouted. Sasaki attempted to force feed Takao but he punched back and shoved the food into Sasaki’s mouth. Takao then declared he will win the DDT Universal Title from him on 5th December.
The rookies got to experience Hardcore wrestling for the first time thanks to Shunma Katsumata. He invited Toui Kojima, Hideki Okatani and Yuya Koroku to go wild with weapons such as block toys, barbed wire bats, clothing pins, chairs, ladders, pop crackers and more. Okatani tried to put Kojima through a table with the Double Arm Suplex but the table didn’t break. Okatani smashed him through the table the second time. Katsumata covered Koroku in an Acupressure Foot Mat and pinned him with the Totonoe Splash. The rookies all agreed the match was painful but fun.
After the contest was over, Katsumata apologised for making a mess during the dark match. Then suddenly Hyper Misao entered the ring carrying a sign and attacked him with it. She is angry with him for a bunch of reasons. First, The 37KAMIINA humiliated her at the Tokyo Dome during the Rojo Pro Wrestling match held there. And second, Misao is upset she wasn’t invited to be in the Hardcore Match today. She demanded a Hardcore Match against Katsumata and it will happen on 18th December in Nagoya. Katsumata questioned if it is heroic to attack someone from behind and if Misao really is a hero? Misao said this is the way of a hero and she will end his hardcore life!
The very first match of the day was eventful before it even begun. Akito pinned Toru Owashi during his in-ring introduction to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Owashi, Kazuki Hirata and Antonio Honda then chased after Akito while the match went ahead. Yuki Ishida used his power to knock over opponents but Yusuke Okada soon stopped his momentum. Naomi Yoshimura threw everyone around. Saki Akai went wild against Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi. The Iron Man chase returned to the ring and Honda revealed that today is Hirata’s birthday! He sang him a birthday song but Hirata cut him off with a Cradle for a nearfall. CDK grabbed Hirata and used a Super Kick/Praying Mantis Bomb combo to put him away.
The show began with the D-Ou Grand Prix chairman Kenta Kobashi greeting the audience and declaring the opening of the final day. Endo could be heard cheering his announcement from the locker room.
Since today is Hirata’s birthday and there were two special announcements for him. On 26th December in Yoyogi, Maku Donaruto will be on the show. Also on the show Hirata is getting a big singles match against Shuji Kondo! Hirata was surprised by the second announcement and promised to do his best. He doesn’t even know Kondo despite their Kobe connection. He also wants Kondo to go easy on him.
The second DDTeeeen!! show will be held at Itabashi Green Hall on 5th January. Ilusion and El Unicorn both promoted the event at the start of the show.
In 2022 DDT will be hosting a “0 Yen Free Show” once a month for the entire year. The first one will take place in Shinjuku FACE on 7th January.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN OSAKA”, 14/11/2021
Osaka 176BOX
229 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. 3 Way Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Yusuke Okada defeated Toru Owashi & Yuki Ishida and Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima when Endo pinned Kojima with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (6:07).
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Yuya Koroku when Iino submitted Koroku with the Sexy Death Lock (8:53).
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Yuji Hino (6) defeated Naomi Yoshimura (2) with the Fuckin’ BOMB (10:13).
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Bodyguard (4) defeated Yuki Ueno (4) by TKO with the Rising Dragon (10:45).
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Chris Brookes (4) defeated MAO (4) by Countout (16:51).
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Konosuke Takeshita (7) defeated HARASHIMA (0) with the Roll-Through German Suplex (16:19).
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Yuji Okabayashi (7) defeated Kazusada Higuchi (4) with the Golem Splash (23:39).
A Block
1. Tetsuya Endo (6)
-. Yuji Hino (6)
3. Bodyguard (4)
-. Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Jun Akiyama (4)
6. Naomi Yoshimura (2)
B Block
1. Konosuke Takeshita (7)
-. Yuji Okabayashi (7)
3. Kazusada Higuchi (4)
-. Chris Brookes (4)
-. MAO (4)
6. HARASHIMA (0)
The race in B Block is as tight as it ever could be between two people. Yuji Okabayashi kept up his unbeaten streak by defeating Kazusada Higuchi. In a show of bravado during the match Higuchi told the crowd he was about to do the Golem Splash. But when he climbed the ropes, Okabayashi rushed up to him and did an Avalanche Brainbuster. Okabayashi then said he would do the Golem Splash and Higuchi did the same Avalanche Brainbuster to him. Clashing Lariats afterward almost knocked both of them out but they each got back up before the 10 count. Okabayashi deflected the Brain Claw with more Lariats but that along with a Power Bomb couldn’t keep Higuchi down. It took the Golem Splash hit full and proper for Okabayashi to finally win. He told Higuchi after the match that they would fight each other again some day.
Konosuke Takeshita also won his match today in order to stay neck and neck with Okabayashi. The victory was over the winless HARASHIMA, continuing the longtime veteran’s fall from grace throughout this edition of the D-Ou Grand Prix. HARASHIMA missing the Somato gave Takeshita the opening to win with the Roll-Through German Suplex. The result is not being taken for granted. Takeshita knew HARASHIMA is in good shape despite his losing streak. What’s different is Takeshita’s generation have now figured out their own ways of beating the old guard in DDT after studying them. For example, Takeshita says he has about 10 ways to counter the Somato and he used 3 or 4 of them today. On the final day Takeshita has to face Higuchi while Okabayashi will take on HARASHIMA. The results will decide who goes through to the grand final which is all the motivation Higuchi and HARASHIMA need to play spoiler.
With nothing to fight for except pride in their final block match, Chris Brookes and MAO took it upon themselves to make a mess around the venue. They fought outside the ring where MAO tried to run Brookes over with a massive truck tyre. They then went up to the balcony and Brookes tried to throw MAO over the railing. If that wasn’t enough they took the fight outside the building. The audience that stayed inside had to look at Makoto Oishi promoting Wrestle Universe while they waited for the wrestlers to return. Outside the building there was a castle of chairs built for Brookes to crash MAO into. As they chased each other back inside, Brookes gave MAO the Praying Mantis Bomb through some chairs. He then wedged MAO upside down into a stack of other chairs and made it back to the ring in time to be declared the winner by countout. Brookes said the result was not a surprise because MAO is stupid and easy to beat. MAO said Brookes was meant to be in DDT and this is the DDT he fell in love with.
Over in the A Block the competitive field has become more open with today’s results. Bodyguard cut off Yuki Ueno’s momentum with his sheer power. He blocked the WR and used the Rising High Kick to great effect. Once Ueno was put into the Rising Dragon he had nothing left and the match was stopped. Ueno’s back and forth results makes him think he is alternating between dream and reality. He’s been learning more about himself in this tournament than he was when he held the DDT Universal Title. He now has to fight Tetsuya Endo on the final day while Bodyguard meets Jun Akiyama.
Yuji Hino shares the top spot with Endo going into the final day. Unlucky Naomi Yoshimura didn’t have the power in his Lariats to put down the bigger opponent. Instead Hino lifted him up and Fuckin’ BOMBed him for the win. Now all Hino has left to do is wait and see how the remaining block matches on 21st November will go. It’s out of his hands right now. Yoshimura thinks it is pathetic that he could only win one match in this tournament. He can’t figure out how he was able to beat Yuki Ueno but lose to everyone else. He doesn’t know what is keeping him from beating Jun Akiyama or what the difference is between himself and Yuji Hino. He is a tag champion but didn’t bring the belt for all of his matches because he was focused on singles wrestling. All he can promise right now is to work harder in both singles and tag wrestling from now on for both himself and DISASTER BOX.
A bombshell was dropped at the start of the show when the GM Hisaya Imabayashi was convinced to join Pheromones! At first they were going to take him hostage but Danshoku Dieno started asking when was the last time Sanshiro Takagi said “thank you” to him? The GM made his decision by giving Takagi a Stunner. He then started screaming “Employees are not slaves! Raise their Wages! Give them more holidays!” before storming off with his new allies. Takagi told the audience Imabayashi was just tired from working hard.
Imabayashi came back out for the Pheromones match continuing to his rallying cry for workers around the country to stand up against their bosses. Dieno offered him a chair to attack Takagi with but Imabayashi had a change of heart and couldn’t do it. He then gave Dieno a Brainbuster when Dieno tried to bully him! Pheromones knocked him out while Yuki Iino submitted Yuya Koroku to win. After the match Takagi challenged Pheromones for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as revenge for them harming his employee. His tag partners are going to be Atsushi Onita and Kuro-chan. That’s right, the Current Blast Death Match happening in Nagoya on 18th December is now a title defence for Pheromones! Dieno threatened to blast Takagi in every position Imabayashi was blasted in. When they left, Takagi told an unconscious Imabayashi to please come to work on time tomorrow morning. He’ll be limited to only working 8 hours a day so he won’t get tired again. But that’s it!

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN TOKYO DOME RETURNS ~DDT TOKYO DOME CUP~”, 31/10/2021
Tokyo Dome
0 Fans
1. 5,000,000 Yen DDT TOKYO DOME CUP – Gauntlet 8-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Chris Brookes, Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Gorgeous Matsuno, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari & Tetsuya “Hercules” Endo, Miyu Yamashita, Hikari Noa, Maki Itoh & Hyper Misao and Kouzi, Shinya Aoki, Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata.
1a. Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Chris Brookes, Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Gorgeous Matsuno when MAO pinned Matsuno with a Curb Stomp onto a Traffic Sign (12:46).
1b. Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Miyu Yamashita, Hikari Noa, Maki Itoh & Hyper Misao when Katsumata pinned Misao with the Totonoe Splash onto a Chair (15:38).
1c. Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Kouzi, Shinya Aoki, Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata when Ueno pinned Hirata after a Missed Headbutt from Kouzi (6:20).
1d. Wrestleball: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO (4x) defeated Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari & Tetsuya “Hercules” Endo (3) when Takeshita pinned Imanari with the German Suplex.
After over four years away, DDT made its return to the world famous Tokyo Dome for its second empty arena show in the venue. This time the visit was to crown the winners of the first ever DDT TOKYO DOME CUP. 5 million yen was put on the line with 5 teams competing in total. When The 37KAMIINA entered the field first the format was revealed to be a Gauntlet match. They complained about the unfair disadvantage of being the first team but they kept quiet when Hisaya Imabayashi handed them a million yen in cash. The voice of Azusa Takigawa explained over the speakers that every team is given a million yen. The winners of each round would then take the losers’ money until the entire prize pot was filled. Chris Brookes, The Brahman Brothers and Gorgeous Matsuno then entered the field and handed over their money to start the match.
The two teams brawled around the baseball diamond. Brookes attempted to do an Old School walk across the fence but Konosuke Takeshita knocked him off it. The 37KAMIINA held each of their opponents in a Headlock on all four bases and all charged into the pitcher’s mound to give their opponents one big meeting of the minds. An Estrella chain was formed while Yuki Ueno countered the Praying Mantis Bomb into a Hurricanrana on Brookes for a nearfall. The Brahmans brought out their wacky weapons and gathered their opponents onto home base where they bowled a spare on them (Brahman Shu’s first bowl missed and hit Brahman Kei in the foot). Brookes leapt over Takeshita & Ueno to give MAO a Cutter. Matsuno took over and attempted to Power Bomb MAO but it was blocked. The Brahmans ran in with an electric drill but missed MAO and caught Matsuno in the groin with it instead. Brookes threw powder but MAO ducked that too and Matsuno took the damage again. MAO laid The Brahmans’ traffic sign underneath Matsuno and Curb Stomped him into it for the win.
The 37KAMIINA now had 2,000,000 yen and walked up the stands to meet their next opponents. Along the way Saki Akai appeared working as a beer seller. Shunma Katsumata asked for a beer and Akai told him it would cost 2 million yen. When Katsumata said that’s too expensive Akai called him a poor man, kicked him in the face and walked off looking for more customers.
The next team entering the Gauntlet appeared in the concourse area. It was the Tokyo Joshi Pro team! Hyper Misao carried a protest sign accusing The 37KAMIINA of lying about their love for saunas. They’re just cashing in on the rising popularity of the sauna industry and secretly hates saunas! She then pulled out a straw doll and began attacking it, committing a voodoo spell on Katsumata that worked. Ueno turned the spell against Misao and made her writhe in pain by twisting the doll in her direction. Misao stopped the spell by blinding Ueno with a spray and throwing him into a nearby trash can. Maki Itoh attacked MAO in the stands and called for the Cutest Knuckle Punch In The World to the empty Tokyo Dome. She then attempted the Gran Naniwa Crab Walk across a railing but was next to a column and had no room to complete the move. Hikari Noa took out a Barbwire Baseball Bat and Katsumata brought over a toy bat covered in Lego for a duel between the two. Their fight left a mess of Lego all over the floor. That left Takeshita facing off with Miyu Yamashita in a clash between the two champions of DDT and Tokyo Joshi. Yamashita kicked him good but was thrown chin first into a railing. She got angry and threw more kicks at The 37KAMIINA until MAO showed up challenging her to a martial arts face off. The two had a tense staredown that ended when MAO made Yamashita flinch and then punched her while her guard was down. Noa ran in holding a ladder over her head and shoulders, spinning around and knocking her opponents away. Takeshita stopped the spinning and Katsumata hit the ladder with a chair, leaving Noa in a stunned state. Yamashita was ready to charge back in when suddenly Misao cycled into the scene on a bike and crashed right into a castle of chairs! MAO smashed a plastic box over Itoh’s head but she no sold it. Her head finally took damage when MAO blocked the Kokeshi Headbutt with a chair. MAO then gave Itoh a Package Piledriver onto a stack of chairs. Finally, Katsumata laid Misao onto a pile of Chairs and hit the Totonoe Splash off of a scaffold for the three count. The 37KAMIINA now have 3 million yen.
The next round was taking place in the bullpen but on the way over, everyone bumped into Saki Akai again. Katsumata again tried to buy a beer but now Akai told him it would cost 3 million yen. He said the price is a ripoff so Akai kicked him down the stairway.
Waiting in the bullpen were Shinya Aoki, Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata. They had a mystery partner too and it was revealed to be the RIZIN fighter Kouzi! The match started in the bullpen but moved over to the outfield. Higuchi threw MAO into the wall with a BT Bomb. Aoki’s team then all put The 37KAMIINA in submission holds when all of a sudden, the lights went out. They came back on and Yoshihiko was there standing above them in the seats! It did a dive from the balcony onto everyone below. It then caught Aoki in an Armbar until Hirata broke them apart. Yoshihiko challenged Kouzi to a fight but it was defeated with a combo that ended in a High Kick. Hirata praised Kouzi but then knocked him out with the Tegatana strike. The Hirata GO! glasses were pulled out and Hirata started dancing until Ueno Dropkicked him. Kouzi called for his special move and charged in for a Headbutt (Kouzi has a reputation for headbutting opponents in his fights, whether it’s always accidental is up for debate). Ueno dodged it and Hirata took the blow, leading him to get pinned. Imabayashi interviewed Kouzi after the round to see if he enjoyed the experience. Kouzi said it was a lot of fun and he is already prepared to transfer from RIZIN to DDT so he can continue doing it!
While everyone was getting into place for the final round, a VIP ceremonial first pitch was held back on the field. The first surprise was Jun Akiyama entering to the pitcher’s mound. The second surprise was Kenta Kobashi stepping up to the plate ready to bat! Akiyama threw a dangerous ball at Kobashi, causing a fight to nearly break out between them for the first time in the Tokyo Dome since 2004! Cooler heads prevailed and the two shook hands before introducing the final round.
Pheromones entered the field alongside Tetsuya Endo who for one night only was part of their antics as Tetsuya “Hercules” Endo. The entire prize pot of 5,000,000 yen was now complete and the final would be held under special rules. DDT is combining pro wrestling and baseball together to create Wrestleball! They play baseball and score runs by pinning their opponents on the way to the bases. It didn’t really make much sense and only got more crazy from there. Pheromones scored three points during an inning that involved Yuki Iino doing the Sexy Elbow on his opponents after hitting a home run, Endo getting his shorts pulled down and Danshoku Dieno committing “Brazilian Flatulence” by spraying a CO2 canister from between his legs onto everyone while two samba dancers performed beside him. The 37KAMIINA went into the final inning needing to score 4 runs to win. They got the bases loaded despite some bad swinging from Takeshita & Ueno. The score got tied when Katsumata, Ueni & MAO all ran home. Dieno & Iino were left incapacitated thanks to a Lip Lock gone wrong. Takeshita ran his way round the bases but Endo stood in his way, still with his backside exposed. Endo went for a Hip Attack but Takeshita caught him with an Atomic Drop and knocked him into the air with a Lariat. All that was left was to reach home base. Takeshita sprinted over, hit Yumehito Imanari with the Zahi and German Suplexed him onto home plate for the winning run. The 37KAMIINA wins the DDT TOKYO DOME CUP!
But that wasn’t the end because there was one more surprise for everyone. The 5 million yen is a rewards for one person only so now The 37KAMIINA had to fight each other to claim the prize for themselves! Katsumata got a Triple Super Kick from his partners and the other three fought amongst themselves. Hisaya Imabayashi watched on until a member of the Tokyo Dome management approached him. He was told the show has gone on past the agreed time and DDT now has to pay an extension fee of 5,000,000 yen! Imabayashi hurriedly paid management the entire prize money while The 37KAMIINA continued fighting each other, oblivious that the prize was now gone.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAM TOUR 2021 IN CHIBA”, 30/10/2021
Chiba 2AW Square
118 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

3. Yuki Ueno defeated Gota Ihashi with the WR (11:54).

6. Chiba Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & MAO defeated Yuji Hino, Kazusada Higuchi & Hiroshi Yamato when Takeshita submitted Yamato with the Plus Ultra (19:47).
7. Dark Match: Tetsuya Endo Vs DJ Nira was a Dream… (16:55)?
The main event was all a dream shared through the consciousness of the entire audience. When The 37KAMIINA won their match and finished their victory speech, the shutter gate of 2AW Square opened up and then closed. DJ Nira was then dragged out to the ring for the final match, which was announced as a dark match. Tetsuya Endo came out and Nira tried to stab him with his umbrella. Nira warned Endo he missed his only chance to beat him but Endo then easily knocked him down with an Elbow Strike. Nira grabbed his umbrella again but this time stabbed himself. Endo was confused but continued wrestling. He put Nira in an Airplane Spin and it accidentally knocked out Yukinori Matsui when Nira’s feet clipped him in the head. Suddenly the lights would constantly switch off and on with the scene in the ring switching to something each time. Narration explained that Nira destroyed Endo’s knee in exchange for his life. And from that knee, a new life was born! Antonio Honda appeared in the ring wearing a diaper and crying. Nira and Endo encouraged him to stop crying and stand up. Honda did but quickly fell down and ran out of the ring. Nira told Endo the founder of an old wrestling school was here today and they should meet him. Toru Owashi then brought Honda back out, this time wearing an Ultimo Dragon mask. Everyone at ringside began singing “Seperados”, pulled down their shorts to reveal diapers underneath and formed a human pyramid in front of Endo with Nira on top. Nira jumped off the pyramid to do a Rocket Punch but missed Endo and crashed to the mat. The room went dark and narration explained that the wrestling school collapsed. The room lit up again to reveal a sleeping Matsui being woken up by Hisaya Imabayashi in the middle of the ring with no one else there. Matsui said he just had a dream and the show ended right at that moment.
In his post-match interview, Endo only talked about his opening D-Ou Grand Prix match against Yuji Hino and his goal to win all of his group bouts before facing Kazusada Higuchi in the final. He spoke nothing about what had happened earlier.
Konosuke Takeshita described he is at his best performance in time for the D-Ou Grand Prix. However since MAO is in his same group, MAO told him they are now enemies for the time being. Takeshita agrees even though they are on the same team for tomorrow’s Tokyo Dome empty arena match. Both will be aiming for the final where they expect Yuki Ueno to be on the other side after he wins his block. Shunma Katsumata isn’t in the tournament so they let him finish off the speech so he wouldn’t feel left out. He said if The 37KAMIINA wins the 5,000,000 yen cash prize in the Tokyo Dome then they will all go to Finland to celebrate in their saunas!
Today was Soma Takao’s first chance to get his hands on DAMNATION T.A since they attacked him. It didn’t fare well for him. Daisuke Sasaki attacked him from the get go then he & MJ Paul targeted Hideki Okatani with dirty tactics. Takao got a second wind but DAMNATION T.A’s teamwork overwhelmed him and Okatani. They got rid of Takao outside the ring and Paul hit the Death Valley Bomb on Okatani to win. Sasaki taunted Takao afterwards and when Takao tried to speak on the microphone, Sasaki knocked him out with a Super Kick. Sasaki then said he doesn’t care about Takao and doesn’t want to be involved with him ever again! The quality of DAMNATION T.A would only drop if they were to let him back in. Takao is now left wondering what he has done to be betrayed like this.
Yukio Naya was able to get the win for his match because Jun Akiyama struck Kazuki Hirata with a Knee Strike to set up the Back Drop finish. Akiyama said he wants Naya to wake up and find something good in his abilities because he thinks they will be working together in the future.
The D-Ou Grand Prix is on everyone’s minds. Ueno watched Yuji Hino’s match and found out he is much stronger than he expected. He also has the opening match with Akiyama coming up but Ueno has more goals he wants to achieve than just beating Akiyama.
The Pheromones match went too far out of control again. They wanted to do their antics on Saki Akai which crossed a line according to Imabayashi and got the match thrown out. Sanshiro Takagi then entered the ring to rescue the GM but Pheromones attacked him until Yusuke Okada came out for the save. Dieno got on the microphone and said if their matches keep getting stopped then they will never get to wrestle from start to finish. He demanded that the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match at Ota Ward Gymnasium must not be prematurely stopped or end in disqualification. Dieno then forced Imabayashi to officially make the match on 3rd November No DQ.

The team were at full strength with Yoshimura kicking out of the MADMAX and then HARASHIMA kicking out of the Firebird Splash from Shunma Katsumata. Yoshimura set up 37KAMIINA’s downfall by giving Konosuke Takeshita a Back Drop. HARASHIMA followed up with the Somato to wipe him out of action. Yoshimura then turned his attention to Katsumata and pinned him with the Throwaway Power Bomb.
Yoshimura excitedly shouted “I won!” and passed the microphone over to HARASHIMA. He thanked everyone for supporting them and then thanked Yoshimura for a great performance. Today is proof that DISASTER BOX is still strong and now HARASHIMA is looking forward to fighting Takeshita in the D-Ou Grand Prix. Yoshimura is in a different block but he also told Takeshita to expect a KO-D Openweight Title challenge from him in the future. The rest of DISASTER BOX entered the ring and they all promised to aim for the top in DDT.
Being a babyface is a tough job. Daisuke Sasaki learned that lesson today. His opponent Isami Kodaka entered the ring wearing a Fujita Pro Wrestling School in support of Minoru Fujita as well as Fujita’s Sento Minzoku tail. Fujita was Sasaki’s original challenger for the DDT Universal Title but Fujita fell ill with Covid and currently cannot wrestle. Sasaki’s commitment to being a babyface won through though and he submitted Kodaka with the Crossover Facelock. They hugged and shook hands after the match. Sasaki even said he would like to show up in BASARA if Kodaka ever wants him to.
Sasaki continued his babyface promo until he started stuttering and losing track. He couldn’t do it anymore. He’s no babyface, he’s a crazy guy! He quits being a babyface! DAMNATION was destroyed and he will never forgive the one responsible for breaking the hearts of every DAMNATION fan. Sasaki is forming a new unit called DAMNATION T.A. (Total Addiction)! He called down Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao to the ring but when Takao rolled in, Sasaki immediately Super Kicked him. Sasaki doesn’t want any of them because they’re the ones responsible for DAMNATION’s demise! Takao fought back but got a Low Blow from Sasaki. Then Mad Paulie, or somebody who resembles Mad Paulie came out and floored Takao with a Lariat. Sasaki introduced everyone to the new Paulie he found deep in the forests of Nerima. It’s the cruel slaughter machine MJ Paul (The MJ stands for Murder Junky)! Sasaki promised that DAMNATION T.A. will bring destruction and chaos from here on out! Backstage Takao swore revenge on the two of them.
The D-Ou Grand Prix preview match went off to an awkward start with Endo and Yuji Hino beginning the match against each other. Endo would attempt to put Hino in a Torture Rack but couldn’t pull it off. Yuki Ueno & MAO worked together in an effort to break down Kazusada Higuchi. Ueno was taken care of with a dive from Chris Brookes. Back in the ring, MAO got on Higuchi’s nerves and tried to tangle him up in pinning holds. That ended with Higuchi catching MAO with a Lariat and pinning him with the Brain Claw Slam. After the match Endo said he will win the Grand Prix and he will also beat Hino with the Torture Rack Bomb on 3rd November. Hino replied they are enemies now that DAMNATION is gone and he will beat Endo with the Fuckin’ BOMB instead. Higuchi, Brookes and Ueno also staked their claim to win the tournament. MAO too but he collapsed while he gave his speech since he was still feeling beaten up.
The Pheromones match went to another no contest. Not even Sanshiro Takagi bringing out the kettlebell that injured him made much of a difference. Toru Owashi made a brave stand to protect Takao but Phermones easily ignored him and attacked Takao anyway. Dansoku Dieno grabbed Takao’s steel basin and dropped it on Takagi’s head, sending him to the back to get aid. Dieno & Yuki Iino then set up a Double Hell Gate in the corner. Yumehito Imanari grabbed one of the TV cameras and threatened to get a close up on the Double Hell Gate when a furious Hisaya Imabayashi called off the match.
Pheromones grabbed Imabayashi and threw him into Iino’s backside. Takagi returned afterwards with Yusuke Okada by his side. They held out handcuffs and told Pheromones what they are doing on a live broadcast is a crime. Takagi has formed a team of ex-cops to beat Pheromones on 3rd November. It will be him, Okada and Shinya Aoki teaming together! A still bloody Aoki (more on that below) came out and said Pheromones are getting carried away. Dieno defended his side by explaining it is up to professionals like them to turn crime into entertainment! Pheromones will take you to a world you’ve never seen before!
Aoki ended up in a bloody state because Yumiko Hotta beat him up good. The DDT Extreme Title match between them was under normal pro wrestling rules but Hotta attacked Aoki with a chair kept throwing him into the security fence around ringside until she was disqualified. Hotta got on the microphone and said she is just doing her style of AJW pro wrestling and demanded a restart. Aoki agreed and the match was no No DQ but for Hotta only. This time Hotta attacked Aoki with a steel chain but when she went for the Pyramid Bomb, Aoki countered it into an Armlock to make her tap out. A brawl broke out after the match and the two of them had to be separated.
The KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles match was the first time meeting between Yoshiaki Yatsu and Jun Akiyama. Also both Team Olympian and Junretsu made claims to disband if their team lost so the match was high stakes even without the titles involved. Hiroshi Yamato did the better against Hideki Okatani by hitting him with the Cross Chop. Junretsu took control by isolating Keigo Nakamura. The tables turned when Yatsu gave Okada the Yatsugoye/Iron Knee. Junretsu regained control and hit a combination of attacks on Akito ending with Mizuki Watase in the ring with him. Akito rolled him up with the Airplane Throw to get the three count out of nowhere.
Kazuki Hirata approached Team Olympian after the match with Yoshihiko, Owashi and Antonio Honda all by his side. Hirata asked the fans if they liked his match against Yoshihiko earlier and if they should team together? In order to make this potential team come to life they need a championship so they want the 8-Man Tag Belts with Owashi & Honda! Yatsu agreed and the match will take place in Ota Ward Gymnasium on 3rd November.
But what about Junretsu? They have to live up to their promise and disband because they didn’t win the belts. Makoto Oishi confirmed it but asked if the unit could have one more match so they can leave on happier terms. Okada suggested if they win this match then Junretsu can continue. Oishi said Junretsu and The 37KAMIINA have a 6-Man Tag match in Fuji later this month. They can turn it into an 8-Man Tag and he will be there as the ring announcer so the entire Junretsu unit will all be in the same place. Okada & Okatani liked the idea but Watase was silent throughout the entire team talk.
The debuting Yuki Ishida brought the fight to Higuchi in the sumo versus sumo matchup. Higuchi stood his ground against Ishida’s attacks until the rookie threw Sumo Slaps at him into the corner. He followed up with Corner Splashes and a Sitout Spinebuster for a nearfall. Higuchi took over with a Lariat and the Oklahoma Stampede then pinned him with a Choke Slam. Higuchi shook his hand after the match. Ishida said he wants to devote himself to becoming a pro wrestler so he can some day overtake Higuchi. He also wants to be unique with his sumo style, aiming to be as strong as Kensuke Sasaki but with the speed of El Lindaman, who is closer to his size.
Three Dark Matches extended the show’s full length. Riko Kawahata made her DDT debut entering the ring with an energetic dance. She did well against Saki Akai but her big mistake was doing a Moonsault. Akai blocked it with her knees. Kawabata still had her wits about to dodge the Rookie Award but Akai followed up with a Buzzsaw Kick and applied a Triangle Choke to make her submit. Akai told Kawahata she got to understand AJW-ism from her but she was born and raised in DDT. She wants the two of them to carry their different legacies and do their best for each other from now on.
The bad blood between Hirata and Yoshihiko is now all water under the bridge. They settled their score in a singles match where Yoshihiko came out on top. The doll targeted Hirata’s arm before going for its tried and tested Reincarnation. Hirata tried to do the Viagra Driver but Yoshihiko countered it into the Reincarnation again. Hirata kicked out but his momentum was turned against him as he rolled right into an Arm Lock. Hirata gave up but swallowed his pride and shook Yoshihiko’s hand after the match. The two left the ring together shoulder to shoulder.
The trio representing ChocoPro made their promotion proud with a win in the very first match of the day. When Yuko Naya blocked Honda’s Gongitsune, Baliyan Akki lifted Masahiro Takanashi onto his shoulders to reach out and poke Naya in the eyes with his own Gongitsune. The others kept Naya & Gota Ihashi at bay while Akki pinned Yuya Koroku with the Namaste Press.
The Rojo Pro Wrestling show at the Tokyo Dome on 31st October now has a prize attached to it. The winners of the DDT TOKYO DOME CUP will receive 5,000,000 yen. Five teams will enter and two have been announced. The 37KAMIINA are the first team. The second team consists of Chris Brookes, The Brahman Brothers & Gorgeous Matsuno.
Atsushi Onita returns to DDT on 18th December in Nagoya for a Current Blast Death Match.
In 2022 DDT will hold shows at Shinjuku FACE with 0 yen ticket prices once a month for the entire year. This is part of DDT’s 25th Anniversary celebrations.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2021 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 18/09/2021
Yokohama Radiant Hall
142 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. 3 Way Match: Tetsuya Endo and Akito defeated Hideki Okatani with a Double Rope Assisted School Boy (8:06).
2. Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie defeated Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Paulie pinned Matsunaga with the Reverse Splash (10:05).
3. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari defeated Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & Kazuki Hirata when Imanari pinned Hirata with the SEX Tape Press (10:57).
4. Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Mizuki Watase defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuya Koroku when Watase pinned Koroku with the Back Drop (13:46).
5. Special Tag Match: Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano defeated Daisuke Sasaki & Soma Takao when Urano pinned Takao with the Modern Times (19:50).
6. Yokohama Specialty Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA defeated Konosuke Takeshita & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (16:45).
Konosuke Takeshita was almost able to put Chris Brookes in the Plus Ultra but HARASHIMA quickly broke the hold. Brookes later held Takeshita in the Octopus Hold outside the ring while HARASHIMA pinned Keigo Nakamura. Takeshita was ultimately able to escape from the move but it was too late to make the save. After the match Brookes told Takeshita their match today did not involved The 37KAMIINA. Just like how they won’t be there on 26th September when Brookes wins the KO-D Openweight Title! The info Brookes is learning from these matches makes him confident he will win.
With Minoru Fujita still in quarantine he was absent from today’s show. Daisuke Sasaki had to change his focus to Takumi Tsukamoto instead. Yasu Urano wanted to use the SAYONARA on Soma Takao as a shout out to Fujita but Sasaki stopped him. Sasaki got rid of Tsukamoto and left the match up to Takao. However during the scramble of cradle moves, Urano caught Takao in the Modern Times to get the three count. Sasaki was hoping to study Fujita so much that he could write a book about him but now he has nothing to prepare for.
The growing power of Pheromones was on display among other things with their new member Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari. He won their tag match with the SEX Tape Press, which is a Lou Thesz Press. After the match Pheromones asked Hisaya Imabayashi to put them in the upcoming match on 3rd November to determine the new KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions. Imabayashi rejected them because they have no achievements as a team. Danshoku Dieno said his team do have achievements… of the XXX variety! Yuki Iino pulled down his tights and Pheromones then started harassing Imabayashi until he finally accepted their request.
The opening 3 Way Match saw Tetsuya Endo and Akito come up with the same idea. They both dodged a charging Hideki Okatani and together used a School Boy for the pin. They even placed their feet on the ropes at the same time. Yukinori Matsui didn’t see the cheating but did recognise the two of them both got the pin. So he decided both of them were the winners.
A new rookie is debuting at Korakuen Hall on 12th October! Yuki Ishida was part of the Nihon University Sumo Club, the sumo team that has won the National Student Sumo Championship the most times in history! It is only fitting that his opponent for his debut match is Kazusada Higuchi.
