*Sumire Uesaka becomes the 1,746th champion.
DDT spent a second day at Kanda Myojin Hall for another wrestling show that followed up a little bit on what went on yesterday. First Kazuki Hirata ambushed the two shrine priests from yesterday and placed a Seal on both of them to win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Then in the main event he won a Battle Royal sponsored by voice actress Sumire Uesaka’s café. Everyone in the match wore ribbons in their hair just like Uesaka does. When Hirata was about to receive his prize from Uesaka for winning the match, Pokotan entered the ring and knocked him out with a wrench because he wanted to win the Iron Man Title back. Tetsu Inada stopped Pokotan from pinning Hirata by grabbing his head off and throwing it out of the ring. He then convinced Uesaka to pin Hirata and become the new champ!
There was another Iron Man Title change that happened a while after the show ended. Pokotan snuck up on Uesara and placed its head over her, Uesaka couldn’t see what was going on and the fear made her tap out. The referee then decided the new champion is not Pokotan but Pokotan’s Head!
Keigo Nakamura got to fight HARASHIMA one more time before he goes on his overseas excursion. He said he is always grateful to HARASHIMA for standing by him even when he was injured. When he decided on the excursion, HARASHIMA told him to carry DDT on his shoulders and do his best on the world stage. He feels he now has no choice but to do his best. He promises to come back as a big enough figure that people will end up calling him an ace.

*V1 for Super Sasadango Machine.
6. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated HARASHIMA & Daichi Sato when Brookes submitted Sato with the Ground Octopus Stretch (16:24).
The main event was a glimpse into the upcoming King Of DDT tournament where Chris Brookes and HARASHIMA will face each other in the first round. Brookes ended up submitted Daichi Sato in the match but he also wished him luck in the tournament. HARASHIMA also congratulated Sato on main eventing a DDT show for the first time. Takeshi Masada said he is fired up for his rubber match against Yuya Koroku in Round 1. He still remembers losing to Koroku in the D GENERATIONS CUP final and wants to avoid history repeating itself.
The Kanda Myojin Hall is a site in Tokyo that DDT has used for matches and press conferences in the past. Super Sasadango Machine was inspired by the area’s history to come up with rules for today’s DDT Extreme Title match. He claims the nearby temple was founded to worship the strong villagers who protected the rice fields from demons by biting them. Ever since then the temple holds an important religious ceremony where people bite each other in front of their gods for peace and good health. The shrine priests in attendance told Sasadango that is flat out wrong but Sasadango kept the rules he made anyway. The goal of the match was to bite something three times. When the match began he quickly realised he was in a disadvantage because his mouth was covered by his mask so he had to lift it up to bite Kazuki Hirata. He was still able to get a lead with two bites until Hirata tried to say a tongue twister and bit his own tongue. The referee decided that counts. He then blew his nose with tissue which the referee decided was also a bite. With one bite needed to win Sasadango took out rice crackers and told Hirata whoever bit one first would win. Hirata was about to bite one when Sasadango unmasked himself and then pulled the mask over Hirata’s face to stop him. He then did the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock and ate the cracker to win the match. Sasadango said he will keep defending the Extreme Title until he fights Toru Yano from New Japan.
The local mascot Mikosee had a bad start for his debut wrestling match when he was too big and unwieldy to get into the ring. But he eventually figure out how to transform into battle mode and get involved like a proper wrestler. He even won the match for his team.
Sasadango was expecting today’s match with Hirata to be a double title match. The Extreme Title was already on the line and Hirata was the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion when the show began. But during the show Pokotan ambushed Hirata, knocked him out with a wrench and pinned him to win the title. However Pokotan’s escape was blocked off by Mikosee, who knocked his head off and sent him back into the ring. Two shrine priests then placed a Seal on Pokotan, unintentionally double pinning him to make them the new champions.

DDT “MENTAI WARS”, 12/04/2025
Fukuoka Nishitetsu Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

5. Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON defeated Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul when MAO pinned Paul with the Iai Kick (13:27).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Danshoku Dieno & Takeshi Masada defeated Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y when Dieno submitted To-y with a Strong Arm Bar (18:46).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Kazuki Hirata defeated Shunma Katsumata (c) with a Hammer Attack (6:50 pm).
*Kazuki Hirata becomes the 1,742nd champion.
Danshoku Dieno was having a bad day. First he missed his flight to Fukuoka and had to pay 53,000 yen to change his travel plans and get to the show on time. Then when he arrived at the venue he overheard Shunma Katsumata, To-y and Kazuma Sumi all making fun of him in the hallway. Dieno got so mad that he ran in during the show opening NωA Jr. performance to attack Katsumata and Sumi. Yuki Ueno & To-y ran out to save Katsumata and attack Dieno. That then caused Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada to come out and chase away The 37KAMIINA. In the main event Dieno told everyone he would not use his Danshoku style during the match in order to prepare for Minoru Suzuki. Instead he fought more seriously and even made To-y submit to a strong style Arm Bar. He had finally calmed down once the match was over and told the fans that from here on out he will be gathering information to use in his upcoming match with Suzuki next month. Dieno then named his team today as Analfreude International.
It is now confirmed that the tag team of MAO & KANON is called STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION (I’m going to write it with regular caps from this point forward). They entered to the song “You Know How It Is” by Kero Kero Benito and successfully delivered their first blow on DAMNATION T.A by beating Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul cleanly. They already have a tag move too where MAO does the Whirlwind Kick to the opponent while KANON sweeps their leg with a low Lariat. MAO is so confident this team is going to work out he is already making shirts that he will give out to fans without KANON’s knowledge.
Last night in America, Konosuke Takeshita defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi on a New Japan USA show and used the Somato en route to winning the match. HARASHIMA found out about it and returned the favour back in Japan today. After he hit the Somato on Yuki Ishida he used the Raging Fire to get the win.
Ilusion has his sights on bringing the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles back to DAMNATION T.A. He said they only gave them up in the first place because of an “unwanted child”. Ilusion wants to challenge NωA Jr. for the titles with Sasaki & Hideki Okatani as his partners.
In the aftermath of the main event Kazuki Hirata snuck up behind Katsumata, knocked him out with a hammer and pinned him to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title.

4. Special Tag Match: Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura defeated Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi when Nakamura pinne Sumi with the Modified Crucifix Pin (11:17).
Both Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura are feeling in good spirits heading into their respective championship matches this Sunday. Nakamura told the fans that the roll up technique he’s been using to win matches will be used to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles from Astronauts and bring the belts back to DDT. He and Koroku also promoted the first “D GENERATIONS” show happening on 8th April.
A few days ago To-y was abducted by a mysterious person backstage after a DDT show. The person was Dr. Ueno and he transformed To-y into Mecha To-y! Together they fought Kazuki Hirata but just like Mecha Mummy, water was its fatal weakness. Hirata spat water into Mecha To-y making it malfunction. Chris Brookes had to place the faulty robot onto a trolley and wheel it back into the locker room.
NωA Jr. continue to use their song performances at the start of the show as an excuse to roll up each other for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. The belt changed hands from Yuni to Kazuma Sumi back to Yuni and then to Shunma Katsumata all within one song.

DDT “NO SPOILERS EVENT VOL. 3 IN UENO”, 01/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

5. Partner Match ~ BOYZ Vs YaroZ All-Out Battle: The result is withheld.
Oh God this show is a complete nightmare to figure out. The third edition of DDT’s No Spoilers show had a main event pitting wrestlers from BOYZ taking on wrestlers from YaroZ. However DDT will not reveal what happened in the match and they made every attendee promise not to post anything about it, even though everything else was cleared once the clock reached midnight. Some of the wrestlers did pose group photos backstage and put them on social media though. The BOYZ side seems to consist of Chris Brookes, Yuki Ueno, Takeshi Masada, Akito & Soma Takao all dressed as cops. The members of the YaroZ team I could find were Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Naya, Yuki Ishida & Gota Ihashi. In the middle of it all was bikini model Tena Aoyama. Apparently the two sides were fighting over her.
The World Wide Entertainment match was a Rumble featuring familiar looking wrestlers from around the world. In order of entry we got Hanorek Hogaso (Antonio Honda as Hulk Hogan), “Mr. Perfect” Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi (Hiroshi in his USA gimmick), Nerima Sting (Daisuke Sasaki as Sting), Jibunmadashitakoto Nines (Keigo Nakamura as Seth Rollins), Manmankikind (??? as Mankind), Pakurimusou (Fuminori Abe as Hakushi), Hara Cena (HARASHIMA as John Cena), The Rockza (Keigo Nakamura as The Rock), Fukuda Hiroshides (Hiroshi as Cody Rhodes), Manman Kikeigns (??? as Roman Reigns), Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin (Honda as Stone Cold Steve Austin) and Stone Cold Steve Ochinchin Jr. (Nakamura also as Stone Cold).
To-y requested that his match against Danshoku Dieno would be a Baseball Knuckle Match. The rule is every time they played Rock Paper Scissors during the match the loser would have to remove one piece of clothing. The match would continue until one wrestler lost all of his clothes. To-y entered the match wearing several layers of clothes but Dieno was happy to strip down to his underwear right way. Dieno then went on a winning streak, forcing To-y to eventually strip down to just his own underwear. When Dieno won the final game, the referee ended the match and declared Dieno the winner to save To-y from stripping completely naked in front of everyone.
During the opening of the show Yuya Koroku and Kazuki Hirata got into a fight that made its way into the ring. HARASHIMA was in the middle of the opening speech so he stepped in and told both wrestlers to stop. They agreed and shook each other’s hands but also accidentally headbutted each other in the process. When it was time for the match to happen everyone found out the headbutt caused Koroku and Hirata to swap bodies and costumes! Koroku was now Hirata and Hirata was now Koroku. After doing each other’s spots for the entire match, Hirata (Koroku) pinned Koroku (Hirata) with the Miracle One Shot Cradle to win. They stayed in this state during intermission and it was only when the show restarted when they bumped heads again and swapped back to normal.
NωA was reunited to face the new generation that’s replacing them, NωA Jr. There was a problem because Shunma Katsumata is in both groups so had to wrestle on both teams. The other four eventually got sick of him jumping back and forth so they all fought him together and left him in a defeated mess. Both teams won but since Yuni was directly on top of Katsumata for the pin, he was declared the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Katsumata wanted to end the segment on a happy note so he convinced both idol groups to perform together. However it was suddenly interrupted when To-y approached them armed with a knife acting like a crazed stalker. Katsumata calmed the situation by talking To-y out of it and they hugged. But as they were about to leave ringside, Yuki Ueno suddenly stabbed Katsumata through his body with an umbrella and left him for dead!
At the end of the show a mystery man snuck behind To-y backstage and injected something into his neck. To-y was left in an unconscious state and hasn’t been seen since. DDT eventually had an update announcing that somebody named Dr. Ueno will be bringing Mecha To-y to DDT on 3rd April!

DDT “NANIWA FIGHTER 2025”, 23/03/2025
Osaka City Miyakojima Community Center
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. JJ Furno defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with the 450 Splash (7:44).
2. Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya defeated Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda when Naya pinned Honda after a Anal-gitsune Suicide (8:55).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Keigo Nakamura, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi when Sasaki submitted Yuni with the Crossface Lock (10:11).
4. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama defeated Akito with an Inside Cradle (8:34).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ishida when MAO submitted Hirata with an Inside Cradle (15:40).
6. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated Yuya Koroku & HARASHIMA when Brookes pinned HARASHIMA with the Praying Mantis Bomb (16:35).
Emotions were heavy among the wrestlers for the first DDT show since “JUDGEMENT 2025” because Masahiro Takanashi was in all of their thoughts. Chris Brookes in particular struggled to find his groove in the main event. There was a moment when he had HARASHIMA in position to do the Praying Mantis Bomb but he couldn’t go through with using the move. HARASHIMA took offence and slapped Brookes over and over. After being reminded that he is the KO-D Openweight Champion, Brookes snapped back to normal and gave HARASHIMA the Nose-Pinching Chop that Takanashi usually likes to do. He then went through with doing the Praying Mantis Bomb to win the match. HARASHIMA shook his hand afterwards and called him a strong champion.
Antonio Honda took the time after the main event to talk about how glad he is to be a pro wrestler. He is also thankful to be a part of SCHADENFREUDE International calling the last few years the most wonderful time of his life. The unit will continue to fight on with gratitude, respect and prayer. Brookes then turned his attention to Yuya Koroku. He got a little taste of him today and asks to see more of what Koroku is made of in their KO-D Title match on 6th April. He closed out the show with a message for Takanashi. All the wrestlers, fans and his friends are waiting for him in this ring!
MAO and Danshoku Dieno also talked about Takanashi after their matches and passed on their words of support. MAO will be leaving The 37KAMIINA in a week but he is not sad about it. All he can do for Takanashi is go do new things that are fun. Dieno said he will continue to keep his backside sticking out here until the moment when Takanashi comes back.
The NωA Jr. performance at the start of the show had some hitches because Yuni and Kazuma Sumi kept trying to roll up Shunma Katsumata for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title in the middle of the song.
Yukinori Matsui got to promote his upcoming show in Osaka on 17th May. He also welcomed Naomi Yoshimura into the ring to give an update on his return from injury. After his comeback match on 6th April, Yoshimura would like to go wrestle in Osaka again.

Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Daisuke Sasaki & Ilusion defeated Yuni & Yuki Ishida when Ilusion pinned Yuni with the Swanton Bomb (8:11).
2. Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya defeated MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Naya pinned Hirata with a Slap To The Back (0:28).
2a. Rematch: Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya defeated MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Rakao pinned Hirata with a Running Elbow Butt (9:57).
3. Special Single Match: KANON defeated MJ Paul by Disqualification when Hideki Okatani interfered (9:06).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku defeated Shinya Aoki, Keigo Nakamura & Kazuma Sumi when Koroku submitted Sumi with the Modified Triangle Lancer (10:44).

6. Road To Judgement 2025! Special Tag Match: Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda defeated Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada when Takanashi pinned Brookes with the Bracchus (19:55).
Not long to go now until it’s time for “JUDGEMENT 2025”. Today was the last day for preliminary tag matches involving some of the upcoming title bouts happening at DDT’s 28th Anniversary show. SCHADENFREUDE International was split into two for the main event. Chris Brookes teamed with Takeshi Masada while his next challenger Masahiro Takanashi teamed up with Antonio Honda. Takanashi was on the receiving end of CDK style tag team moves this time. Brookes & Masada gave him the Thrust Kick/Piledriver combo that CDK likes to do. However Takanashi kicked out of the pin and all of a sudden trapped Brookes in the Bracchus to score a win over the KO-D Openweight Champion! The message is clear. No matter what Brookes does to Takanashi, Takanashi will take the KO-D Title from him in the end! Takanashi even said after the match that those three seconds are worth more than the six years they’ve been together!
The other prelim match of note is the only time Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki were facing each other before their DDT Universal Title match. At first Suzuki overwhelmed Ueno with submission holds as well as attacks outside of the ring. To-y suffered the same when Suzume brushed off his Chops and knocked To-y down with only one of his own. However To-y rescued Ueno from the Gotch-Style Piledriver, giving Ueno the space to put Akito in the Blackout Sleeper and win by submission. Suzuki told Ueno after the match he isn’t going to give him the usual B-Grade warnings to hype up their title match. Instead he encouraged him to give the fans a more fun and intense match at Korakuen Hall. One that will destroy Korakuen with the combined force of all their might! Ueno admitted today was a painful match but he hasn’t had enough fun yet to give up the belt now.
KANON is now living a life where he has to fight by himself. His match with MJ Paul immediately went sideways because the rest of DAMNATION T.A would attack him at ringside. Part of the attack included Hideki Okatani hitting KANON with a bamboo stick. Ilusion then interfered when KANON put Paul in the Cobra Twist. KANON fought him off and went to finish Paul off when Okatani returned with another bamboo stick attack. He then hit the referee with it causing the match to end in disqualification. Daisuke Sasaki told KANON he is going to teach him a lesson and end him on 20th March. He then broke a chair over his head. Okatani told KANON a powerless guy like him has no choice but to be controlled by DAMNATION T.A. Backstage KANON said he knows better than anyone what they do because he was with the unit for three years. He promised to get revenge on them and kill Sasaki at Korakuen!
Something was off about Hisaya Imabayashi today. When Match #2 ended in seconds like a Kazuki Hirata match usually does, the GM didn’t react to it. Instead he jusy looked depressed. This made the wrestlers all concerned for him so he explained lately he has lost his passion for wrestling. Everyone agreed to have an immediate rematch and make it so exciting that Imabayashi would care enough to get angry again when they eventually ruin it. It took some effort but they eventually helped Imabayashi find his passion again and enter the match to stop their nonsense. He was then quickly incapacitated by Danshoku Dieno’s Hell Gate.
Before NωA Jr. started their musical performance Yuni tried to roll up Shunma Katsumata in a failed attempt to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Katsumata kicked out and after an awkward moment or two the group sang their song like nothing had happened.

It was a cold evening to hold a pro wrestling show outdoors. It was a good thing for the wrestlers that it was a short one as part of the “MEET & GREET & FIGHT” series. In the main event Keigo Nakamura tried joining in with the SCHADENFREUDE International shenanigans and Chris Brookes also interfered to help out Takeshi Masada. However HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku were able to withstand the disadvantage and went on to win the match. Koroku afterward called this team the HARASHIMA Smile Camp and said he is now in great shape for next month’s KO-D Openweight Title match.
As already mentioned, it was cold out today and the wrestlers were effected by it. Match #2 only lasted 14 seconds when Yukio Naya slapped Kazuki Hirata over the back which was enough to pin him immediately. Hisaya Imabayashi was furious over how fast the match was and came up with a punishment. He knows a normal rematch would end quickly a second time so he told the two teams they’re not allowed to win the match until they eat three ice pops. To-y and Danshoku Dieno in particular really didn’t want to eat them and had to force themselves into doing it. Hirata though was in the mood to do a magic trick. He stuck the last ice pop into Dieno’s Hell Gate and when he pulled it back out it had transformed into a chocolate ice cream! He forced Naya to take a bite but To-y then did the same to him before winning the match with the Kojima Impact.
The cold weather came into play again during the photo session held after the show. Shunma Katsumata ambushed To-y and wrapped him up in tape until he was immobilized. Katsumata demanded To-y to give him back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title but he refused. So Katsumata started force feeding him ice pops until he gave up, which counted as an Iron Man Title change. To-y had to go straight back to the photo session after he was freed.
