The DDT 15th Anniversary show at Nippon Budokan is set for 18th August, 2012. Back at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2011”, Sanshiro Takagi sent out a challenge to Minoru Suzuki for a match at the Budokan. We’ll see if the match goes ahead.

MIKAMI has emerged as the next challenger for the KO-D Openweight Title. He called KUDO a worthy champion but also said he was not creative enough to lead DDT into its 15th Anniversary. KUDO Vs MIKAMI will take place in DDT’s New Year’s Eve show at Korakuen Hall.

After Kenny Omega successfully chalked his first defence of the AJPW Jr. Heavyweight Title, he told the fans he is unsure if he could ever defend the belt in DDT again. He thanked the fans for their support. Omega won the match with the One Winged Angel, which was described as a Piggy Back Michinoku Driver.

The Homoiro Clover Z Audition was a 10 minute Battle Royal with the participants needing to dance whenever a Momoiro Clover Z song began playing in the background or else they would be eliminated. When the time limit expired, Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi had to choose from all the participants who survived the Battle Royal. They chose Akito, Hiroshi Fukuda, Hikari Minami & Gran Hamada and named their group Homoiro Clover Z Green. Dino & Makoto will now use the name Homoiro Clover Z Black. They have also been given a KO-D Tag Team Title shot against Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie on 11th December.

Yuji Hino was revealed to be the latest ally of Let’s Go 30’s. Hino & Yasu Urano have decided to form a team called Crying Wolf and they will challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles at DDT’s 31/12 Korakuen Hall event.

KUDO swept aside his first challenger for the KO-D Openweight Championship. Keisuke Ishii put up a brave effort for his first shot at the title, but KUDO stood tall by the end. His next challenger will be the winner of the DDT48 Election 2011, taking place on the 23rd October Korakuen Hall show. If KUDO ends up winning the election, he will be allowed to choose his opponent.

We have brand new KO-D Tag Team Champions in the form of Kota Ibushi & Danshoku Dino! The two most well known names from DDT make quite the successful combination as they put away the big and small team of Daisuke Sekimoto & Masa Takanashi to win the titles. To celebrate their victory, Dino and Ibushi were joined in the ring with Makoto Oishi and together they all sang and danced to a Momoiro Clover Z song. This is enough to signal a new unit, apparently.

Hikaru Sato was defeated by fellow Pancrase MISSION fighter Minoru Suzuki. Minoru added salt to the wounds by saying he was always better than Sato going back to their days in Pancrase.

HERO! and Darkside HERO! turned on HARASHIMA, giving him a Tombstone Piledriver and leaving him for dead in their 6-Man Tag match. In response to this, Tsurumi Amon announced that HARASHIMA will face HERO! one on one at “NON-FIX 9.18” in Chiba Blue Field.

A DDT Vs Union 6-Man Tag match was announced for a special DDT48 Election show taking place in Korakuen Hall on 25th September. KUDO, HARASHIMA & Kota Ibushi will take on Shuji Ishikawa, Sanshiro Takagi & Kengo Ohka. The Union side has the big disadvantage of being made up of wrestlers from three rival factions. The rest of the DDT48 contestants will appear at the show, which will be the final event where they can campaign for votes before the polls close.

Poison Sawada JULIE’s new name is… Poison JULIE Sawada! The name change he planned was actually just switching parts of his name around, going from ポイズン澤田JULIE to ポイズンJULIE澤田. Sawada arrived at Korakuen Hall with a brand new look, which is being called his “TOKIO” costume. The new costume is a long red Sgt. Pepper style jacket along with a golden helmet that is legal to use during matches. Sawada also used a brand new finishing move called the Pirates A GOGO to defeat Daisuke Sasaki in their tag match and getting revenge for his humiliation during “BEER FIGHT 2011” week.

Several DDT and Union wrestlers spent time with the audience between matches during today’s event, campaigning for votes in the DDT48 Elections. Makoto Oishi went around giving free hugs for example. Although he might have done that anyway regardless of whether or not there was an election going on.

A Super No Vacancy crowd at Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan watched KUDO fight with all of his heart and strength as he defeated Shuji Ishikawa to become the new KO-D Openweight Champion! Both men were left battered and bruised after an intense main event that went on for nearly half an hour. Shuji threw everything he had at KUDO. The Fire Thunder Driver, the Splash Mountain, a Giant Tiger Suplex, even the Kitchen Sink (you lot remember that’s what the Running Knee Strike to the gut is called in some places, right?) but he couldn’t keep KUDO down. KUDO meanwhile sent his strike heavy offence into overdrive, raining down kicks and punches to Shuji late into the match to send him reeling. KUDO had to hit the Diving Double Knee Drop three times in a row to finally beat Ishikawa and become champion. The entire DDT roster came out to congratulate KUDO after the match. KUDO thanked all of his fans and friends for supporting him and he would defend the belt against everybody. He then approached Sanshiro Takagi and told him ” Mr. Takagi, 10 years ago DDT picked me up. Thank you.”

Takagi then had an announcement to make. DDT will be celebrating its 15th Anniversary next year and Takagi wanted to celebrate it in a big way. So he announced that DDT’s 15th Anniversary show will be held in the Nippon Budokan! The show is happening thanks to funding from the Nippon Broadcasting System radio network, who will be sponsoring the event.

Danshoku Dino scored the biggest win of his career when he defeated “The Beast” Bob Sapp in the semi-main event. Things looked bleak for Dino in the first round, fought under “Bob Rules”. He was quickly given a yellow card for grabbing Sapp’s groin and was thrown around ringside like a rag doll. Round 2 was completely different since “Gay Rules” were now in effect. Dino had a lot of fun trying to molest Sapp, who was so distraught by what was going on he tried to hide behind referee Kyohei Wada in order to get away from his opponent. Sapp must have been so thankful when that round ended as the third round returned to his ruleset. Dino was nearly defeated by KO twice in this round but he recovered to pull down Sapp’s shorts. He then kissed him, gave him a Danshoku Driver and kissed him again. Sapp was so overwhelemed he was brought down to his hands and knees. Dino then saw his chance and he rolled over the big man with with the Gaydo Clutch to win the match! It was such a big deal that the Pride FC “Victory” song began playing in the background. Afterwards Dino asked Sapp on the mic if he was gay. Sapp denied he was gay. Tsurumi Amon replied by saying he was gay. Keisuke Ishii then entered the ring to say he was gay. Kyohei Wada then said he was gay. One by one, DDT wrestlers spread around the audience all stood up and said they were gay, leading to the entire audience to hold up their hands and say they were all gay. Feeling emotionally touched by such a wonderful moment, Bob Sapp took the mic and said “I am gay”. All at once, everybody then replied with “Go right ahead!” Sapp realised he was tricked by everyone into saying he was gay and he stormed out of the ring.

The IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Championship match between Kota Ibushi and Prince Devitt was just as much of a sprint as their previous matches against each other. Ibushi made sure Devitt would not return to New Japan with their title and won an exciting match with the Phoenix Splash.

The DDT General Election will return for a second year with the election period taking place between 21st August and 25th September. 48 wrestlers who are either employed or affiliated with DDT will plead for the fans’ votes. At the end of the election, the top 18 contestants will all participate at a special DDT show held in Korakuen Hall later this year. The actual winner of the election will recieve a KO-D Openweight Title shot at that event as well as a cash prize. Danshoku Dino was last year’s winner.

The 5 Vs 5 Elimination match became a bit too chaotic when it came down to the final two men. Akito was the first one to bite the dust when he submitted to Yoshiaki Yago’s Cobra Twist. Kazuki Hirata stunned everyone when he eliminated Super Shit Machine with a flash pin but he was then immediately dealt with by Tomimitsu Matsunaga and Kengo Ohka. Hikaru Sato got rid of Yago but was demolished by Minoru Suzuki. Sanshiro Takagi sacrificed himself to eliminate Suzuki by causing a Double Ring Out, leaving Takao Soma to battle with Matsunaga & Ohka. Soma was able to eliminate Ohka by Ring Out with a Missile Dropkick, but then the rest of the Susan Shit Heart Superstars interfered. Referee Kiso Daisuke was then knocked out cold. Kyohei Wada came to the rescue wearing a DDT referee shirt and became the man in charge, ordering everyone except Soma and Matsunaga to leave the ring. Matsunaga was mad at Wada and started insulting him, so Wada slapped the taste out of his mouth and tried to throw him over the top rope! Soma stopped him as he wanted to beat his former ally in a convincing manner. It took a couple of Elbow Smashes and Schweins but Soma was finally able to win the match with the Diving Guillotine Drop. Here’s an interesting fact, ever since his debut at the first Ryogoku show Takao Soma has been undefeated at all three DDT Sumo Hall shows.

Hikaru Sato Vs Minoru Suzuki was announced for DDT’s 28/8 Korakuen Hall show. Sanshiro Takagi also challenged Suzuki to a match but wants it to take place at DDT’s 15th Anniversary show next year.

Masa Takanashi & Daisuke Sekimoto are your new KO-D Tag Team Champions! The 4-Way over the belts was action packed as four very different teams battled it out to become the best team in DDT. Kenny Omega & Michael Nakazawa eliminated GENTARO & Yasu Urano 13 minutes into the match when they both pinned Urano after the Croyt’s Wrath. Sekimoto then got rid of them with a devastating German Suplex on Nakazawa. HERO! used all of his uncharacteristic dirty tactics on Sekimoto to steal the victory but Yukinori Matsui eventually caught him in the act when HERO! grabbed the ropes for leverage when pinning Takanashi. Soon HERO! and Takanashi were both on the top turnbuckle trying to Superplex each other. Sekimoto tried to interrupt but HARASHIMA stopped him with a Reverse Frankensteiner. Sekimoto rolled back onto his feet and immediately German Suplexed HARASHIMA before collapsing. This left Takanashi and HERO! as the only active wrestlers left in the match. Takanashi won the exchange up top and hit an Avalanche Taka Tonic to pin HERO! and win the belts! Fifteen months ago Daisuke Sekimoto and Masa Takanashi fought in what was called a “Miracle Match” by fans. Now they rule the DDT Tag Team division as KO-D Tag Team Champions!

Match #3 saw two of DDT’s all time greats go toe-to-toe. MIKAMI did not waste anytime and dived onto Poison Sawada JULIE during his entrance into the ring. Sawada used his Snake Magic to good effect until MIKAMI channelled his own magic to give his opponent a taste of his own medicine. MIKAMI almost won with a 450 Splash but as he had Sawada pinned, he was suddenly blinded with Posion Mist. Sawada rolled him over in a cradle but only got a nearfall. MIKAMI brought his ladder into play and both men fought on top of it. That ended badly for Sawada as he was knocked to the canvas, allowing MIKAMI to hit the Volcano Bomb from the top of the ladder to win. Both wrestlers shook hands after the match.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title Battle Royal was as loony as you would expect it to be. The most recent title change before this match took place a three days before the show during a press conference. Champion Antonio Honda tried to demonstrate his affections for busty joshi idol Yuzuki Aikawa only to get knocked out by the feisty lass with a kick to the chest. Daisuke Sasaki stepped in to calm her down only to get kicked into the chest as well. Sasaki fell on top of Honda and Yukinori Matsui counted the pinfall, meaning Sasaki was now the champion heading into the match. The Battle Royal saw plenty of crazy moments but Mr. #6 was the star of the match. His highlights included hitting an entire line of opponents with a Shining Wizard, out Sumo-ing Hoshitango out of the ring and revealing his inner Warsman by submitting DJ Nira with the Palo Special. Antonio Honda won the match and won back his title by submitting Sasaki with the Octopus Hold. But the 24/7 rule struck again as it always does when Gorgeous Matsuno snuck up to Honda on the ramp and gave him a School Boy to leave Sumo Hall as champion!

The young rivalry between Keisuke Ishii and Shigehiro Irie properly opened the show. Irie used his size and weight advantage as best as he could but Irie held on and even had the strength to give his rival a German Suplex. It took him two Kneel Kicks to knock the big man down and out but Ishii proved he was the better man on the night.

The Anal Blast opening ceremony took place with Michael Nakazawa assuming the position. Dick Togo was the special guest detonator and he came out dressed in Cuban military clothing and a Che Guevara shirt. He tried to set off the dynamite with his gun but kept on missing his target. So he suddenly brought out a bazooka and yelled “Adiós, Michael!” His shot was right on target, the show officialy began and Nakazawa is now unable to sit down for a month.

The pre-show match for the Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles began outside the arena. Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa came out armed with paddles and an inflatable raft while Ricky Fuji brought along a guitar and The Great Sasuke appeared with wings attached to his arms. The match travelled into building and over to the merch table manned by former Union wrestler DT-YUTA. They were about to bring the fight over to an area marked “AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY” but Kyohei Wada stopped them from going any further. Goro Tsurumi then made his annual cameo appearance dressed as a chef. The match then went to ringside where Sawa and Sasuke both got on bicycles and crashed into each other while Takagi splashed Fuji through a table. The tour of destruction then went into the dressing room where the wrestlers bumped into the Great Sasuke’s rock band, The Crazy Crew. After a performance of “You Give Love A Bad Name” by everyone in attendence, the wrestlers brawled into the bath area. Takagi finally ended the match by Power Bomb Sasuke into a bath filled with floating rubber ducks and pinning him. Takagi & Sawa are now your new Big China Tag Team Champions!

*Antonio Honda becomes the 868th champion.

Isami Kodaka defended the DDT Extreme Title against his most experienced challenger to date, El Samurai. This time the title was defended in a proper TLC match with Kodaka climbing to the top of the ladder with a steel chair and leaping off, delivering a Double Knee Drop over the chair and onto El Samurai for the win.

The battle over the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title crossed over to Union when the DDT show ended. During the evening Tsuyoshi Kikuchi constantly thwarted Antonio Honda’s attempts at winning the title from him. It wasn’t until the semi-main event when someone was finally able to beat Kikuchi. That person was Ultraman Robin, who brought along his sidekick Giant Robin to defeat the TKG48 pair of Kikuchi & Sanshiro Takagi. Kikuchi won the title back at the end of the night, only for Antonio Honda to finally catch the champ off guard and become champion again.

Ken Ohka’s problems with Mio Shirai continue with Ohka once again left embarrased by the Triple Tails girl. Shirai defeated Ohka with the Figure Four Neck Lock, a move she has used to get rid of Ohka time and time again. Even worse for Ken, Shirai won the SGP Jr. Heavyweight Title from him in his first defence. And just when Ohka thought it couldn’t get even more embarrassing, Mio handed Ohka a new ‘belt’ he had to wear, a dog collar. Needless to say, Mio is now calling herself Ken Ohka’s master.

Match #3 is said to be Hiro Tsumaki’s best performance to date, particularly his moments in the ring with Toru Sugiura.

Big Morohashi was nominated for the Anal Blast Opening Ceremony election for Sumo Hall. Naomi Susan is enthusiastic in her support for Morohashi in the election.

KUDO has struck a blow back towards Shuji Ishikawa as the build up to their Sumo Hall main event match continues. Today in Nagoya, KUDO teamed with Kota Ibushi to defeat Ishikawa & Big Morohashi. Although KUDO wasn’t able to avenge his pinfall loss to Shuji from their last tag battle, he will settle for just winning the match for the moment. At the end of the show KUDO said that when he wins the KO-D Openweight Title he will lead the new era of DDT.

Danshoku Dino found a new move which he hopes to defeat Bob Sapp with at Sumo Hall. Not sure what the Bob Killer is yet but going by the name it could be the Dick Killer submission move used by TAKA Michinoku.

Hikaru Sato was so impressed by Akito’s performance in Match #4 that he decided to include him as the fifth member of his team for the 5 Vs 5 Elimination match at Sumo Hall.

A sudden crisis has occurred for Michael Nakazawa and his anus. The Super Strong Machine’s Diving Headbutt badly injured Nakazawa’s backside in their match. The injury is so severe it could prevent Nakazawa from participating in the Sumo Hall Anal Blast opening ceremony if he does not recover in time.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changed hands twice on this show and had an even busier day afterwards. With some help from the ropes, Daisuke Sasaki pinned Antonio Honda to win the title, only for Tsuyoshi Kikuchi to roll Sasaki onto his shoulders immediately afterwards. For the rest of the day Antonio Honda tried to sneak attack Kikuchi and win the title back. But each and every time Kikuchi was able to escape or even beat Honda, scoring some rare defences of the belt. Meanwhile Mr. #6 announced that he will be a part of the Sumo Hall Battle Royal where the title will be at stake.

Sumo Hall Additions, 5 Vs 5 Elimination, Tag Title Matches

July 4, 2011

DDT “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2011”, 24/07/2011
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

0. Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles: The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa
1. Battle Royal – Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title:
2. Summer Night Fever – 5 Vs 5 Elimination: Sanshiro Takagi, Hikaru Sato, Takao Soma, Kazuki Hirata & X Vs Yoshiaki Yago, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Super Shit Machine, Kengo Ohka & Minoru Suzuki
3. Special Singles Match: MIKAMI Vs Poison Sawada JULIE
4. Special Singles Match: Danshoku Dino Vs Bob Sapp
5. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) Vs Prince Devitt
6. 3 Way – KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & HERO! Vs GENTARO & Yasu Urano Vs X & X
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs KUDO

Also Appearing: Tsuyoshi Kikuchi, Yuzuki Aikawa, Emi Sakura and Riki Sensyu.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions of HARASHIMA & HERO! will have twice the trouble to handle at Sumo Hall when they defend the titles against two teams. On one side is the former KO-D Tag Champions GENTARO & Yasu Urano. On the other side will be a team featuring either Michael Nakazawa or Masa Takanashi plus a partner of thier choice. Nakazawa and Takanashi will be competing over who gets the spot over the next couple of shows.

The 5 Vs 5 Elimination match features Hikaru Sato and Takao Soma putting aside their differences to fight a common enemy. They along with Sanshiro Takagi and Kazuki Hirata will team up to fight the Susan Shit Hart Superstars. However, The Superstars had a trick up their sleeve and announced that Minoru Suzuki will be part of their team. This leads to a daunting task for Hikaru Sato as he now has a fellow member of PANCRASE Mission as his enemy on the night. But his team has room for one more wrestler to compete. Will Takagi bring along one of his TKG48 buddies to the fight?

Just like last year, Sanshiro Takagi will be pulling double duty on the show. He and Munenori Sawa will have their rematch against The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji for the coveted Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles in the Dark Match of the evening. Legendary referee Kyohei Wada will be the official for the bout once more. The previous match was plagued with countout finishes so this one may very well be Falls Count Anyhwere to determine a clear winning team the first time round.

There is much discussion going on behind the scenes in DDT over who gets the dubious honour of receiving the now traditional “Anal Blast” ceremony to open this year’s show. So far Michael Nakazawa and Batten Tamagawa are the top two choices considered. Nakazawa has been part of the ceremony for the previous two shows while Tamagawa probably realises this is the only chance he’ll ever get to have an important role at a Sumo Hall show, even if it means having fireworks shoved up where the sun don’t shine. This would be a weird time to try and do a segue way connecting Tamagawa’s American flag themed gear to wishing all of the American readers a happy Independence Day, wouldn’t it?

The Susan Shit Hart Superstars made their presence felt during the show. The dark match was supposed to be Sanshiro Takagi taking on a member of the Superstars as chosen by Yoshiaki Yago. However, Yago decided that Takagi would have to fight all of the Superstars in attendence in a Handicap match. Yago, Madoka, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Super Shit Machine then defeated Takagi in swift fashion. The Superstars then came out later to attack Hikaru Sato and Takao Soma after their singles match. Sanshiro Takagi returned to help Sato & Soma, causing an impromptu 4-On-3 Handicap match to begin. The Superstars won that one too. Afterwards, Hikaru Sato challenged The Superstars to a 5 Vs 5 Elimination match at Sumo Hall.

*V2 for Shuji Ishikawa.

DDT now has their main event set for their biggest show of the year. Shuji Ishikawa successfully defended the KO-D Openweight Title not once, but twice on one of the final stops on the road to Sumo Hall. Ishikawa defeated both GENTARO and Takao Soma back-to-back to earn his first two title defences. Now he will face KUDO, who has been on a roll since winning the “King Of DDT”. At the end of the show, the DDT locker room joined KUDO in the ring and put him through a trial by fire to get him ready for Sumo Hall. One by one, the DDT wrestlers each gave KUDO one of their trademark moves in the hopes that they transfer their strength to him. However when Danshoku Dino was about to give KUDO the Danshoku Driver, Shuji Ishikawa booted him in the head and gave KUDO the Splash Mountain instead. Shuji yelled at KUDO and said that he will beat him at Sumo Hall.

The Shit Heart ♥ Foundation is going through some changes. Due to Takao Soma’s failure to capitalize his golden opportunity of beating a weakened Shuji Ishikawa and become KO-D Champion, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Super Shit Machine took matters into their own hands and kicked Soma out of the group. Matsunaga then announced that the SHF has joined forces with the Susan Guard from Union. The new unit is now called the Susan Shit Heart Superstars!

The unlikely team of Kenny Omega & Michael Nakazawa surprised everyone by winning the KO-D Tag Team Championships! The TKG48 duo of Munenori Sawa & Shigehiro Irie only had the belts for 15 days until they lost it in their first defence. HARASHIMA & HERO! came out to challenge the new champs. Omega accepted and planned out a special show at Shin-Kiba 1st RING on the 24th June. At this event will be just one match, and that match will be Omega & Nakazawa Vs HARASHIMA & HERO! for the KO-D Tag Titles! Omega then told everyone that he sees Nakazawa’s true potential and he just wants to help his friend.

Only a few more days until Dick Togo calls an end to his illustrious career in Japan. He had his final match for DDT today, teaming with Antonio Honda to defeat Yasu Urano & Daisuke Sasaki. The day before, Togo showed up at the K-DOJO show at Korakuen Hall for one last Kaientai*DX reunion where he again won the match for his team with the deadly Diving Senton.

It was announced that Kota Ibushi will have his first defence of the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title against Prince Devitt on 27th August at Sumo Hall.

The final Assassin sent from Bob Sapp to fight Danshoku Dino was Canadian indy wrestler Sexxxy Eddy. Before the match began, Eddy told the crowd that he always has the most beautiful woman in the arena strip him of his clothes. So he brought out Emi Sakura and performed a striptease for her. Dino was able to overcome this last obstacle and is now qualified to fight Bob Sapp at Sumo Hall. That was not the end of the night for Sexxxy Eddy, however. He briefly won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Masa Takanashi and then lost it to Keisuke Ishii.

The Special Dark Match between Gorgeous Matsuno and DJ Nira was interrupted by the announcement of DDT’s next “Anywhere Pro Wrestling” event taking place on 2nd July. The show is titled “Luggage Material Wrestling”. The match still went on while Tsurumi Amon was making the announcement and continued when he was finished. However, the match ran out of time just when DJ Nira hit the Rocket Punch on Matsuno.

Here is the card for Sumo Hall so far:
