Hikari Noa will be coming back to Japan empty handed. She lost to Alex Windsor on last night’s EVE show preventing her from becoming a two time International Princess Champion. Windsor has some unfinished business going on in EVE so it will be a while before she can be seen in Tokyo Joshi Pro. However TJPW are continuing their relationship with EVE by sending over Miyu Yamashita and Hyper Misao to their annual “WRESTLE QUEENDOM” show in November. Yamashita’s match for that day is against Millie McKenzie. In return EVE is sending Rhia O’Reilly & Nightshade, aka The Uprising to Japan sometime in the future. The two of them are expecting to get a Princess Tag Team Titles match once they come over.

7. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes Vs Asuka
8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs HARASHIMA & Toru Owashi
The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and the O-40 Title have both suddenly been vacated?!? Toru Owashi wants to prove he is taking the KO-D Tag Team Titles match seriously so he is discarding the two championships he’s been carrying around for months. Even though he’s been the O-40 Champion for almost two years, he still considers it Gorgeous Matsuno’s pride and joy. Matsuno still reminds him on the regular to keep the belt polished. Meanwhile many of Owashi’s friends have held the Iron Man Title over the years. He is willing to throw all of that away in order to become the new KO-D Tag Champion with HARASHIMA. His request was accepted by Hisaya Imabayashi (who just turned 50 yesterday) and Harimao paid respect to Owashi for his decision.
Cheering will be allowed at this show too. You probably wouldn’t hear it over the explosions anyway.

He said his symptoms are mild and his hospital stay is more so he can rest and recuperate. Daichi Kazato replaces him in Match #3.

BOYZ “BOYZ BE AMBITIOUS! 2021”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2nd Floor
100 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Oishi & Okatani Produce Match “Okaya. Produce.”: Yuki Ueno & Kazuki Hirata defeated Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani when Hirata pinned Okatani with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (9:35).
2. Unprecedented Confrontation: Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO ended in a Double Countout (12:24).
3. Jun Masaoka Appeal For Entering Damne!? Assessment Match: Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao defeated Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka when Endo pinned Masaoka with the Shooting Star Press (16:53).
4. BOYZ Annual DDT x Ganpro Exchange Match: Akito defeated Shota with a Gannosuke Clutch Cutback (15:38).
5. BOYZ Army Vs YaroZ Army Full Scale Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima defeated Antonio Honda, Yuki Iino & Keigo Nakamura when HARASHIMA pinned Nakamura with the Somato (16:29).
Today in Itabashi Green Hall there were two competing shows taking place at the same time. In the regular room on the 2nd Floor where the pro wrestling shows are held was the BOYZ show for women. The 1st Floor was the location of the YaroZ show for men. There would be invasions from both sides on both shows taking place throughout the day.
The main event of the BOYZ show was a 6-Man Tag between the two brands. The YaroZ team were confused from seeing only women in the audience when they entered the room. Yuki Iino tried to impress the audience with the Haka but got no response. Keigo Nakamura wrestled in a blonde wig that fell off when he did a Moonsault. Antonio Honda summoned his team to form a centaur but the attack fell apart when they crashed into the corner. Shunma Katsumata wiped out Honda & Iino with a dive to the outside, Toui Kojima planted Nakamura with the Full Nelson Buster and HARASHIMA hit the Somato to give the home team the victory.
The match between Akito and Shota was a clean and even wrestling match most of the way. They got tangled up in a Figure 4 Leg Lock that rolled its way out of the ring. Neither man wanted to break the hold but did so before they could get counted out. Shota sneakily grabbed a metal fitting from under the ring and hid it in Akito’s boot during a submission attempt. Daisuke Kiso later found the fitting in Akito’s boot and the distraction allowed Shota to take over with a Cradle nearfall. Shota then faked a leg injury to put Akito in position for the Gannosuke Clutch. Akito still countered the move into his own cradle to get the three count. The two shook hands after the match to show there were no hard feelings over what happened.
If Jun Masaoka genuinely wanted to join DAMNATION then he apparently failed the audition. Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao wouldn’t shake his hand before the match. Masaoka seems to make a good team with Chris Brookes anyway so maybe it’s not all that bad.
The BOYZ show crossed over into the YaroZ show during the Keisuke Ishii Vs MAO match. While they were fighting back and forth, the action took them up to the entrance and to the backstage area. Suddenly the Danshoku Dieno Vs Yukio Naya match from the YaroZ show made its way into the BOYZ show and those two fought their way into the ring. Ishii and MAO returned and the two matches got mixed up with each other until they both broke off out of the ring again. The end result was both matches ending in a double countout.
Kazuki Hirata wanted to give everyone a flashy start to the show and complained about Hideki Okatani being too plain. Makoto Oishi agreed and encouraged Okatani to do cooler moves before he would allow him to tag out. Okatani tried to do a Tornado DDT with a lot of appealing to the fans but Yuki Ueno threw him off easily. He then tried to do the High Fly Flow to Hirata but missed. Hirata easily pinned him afterwards.
Yusuke Okada was caught trying to sneak into the show during the opening introductions. He was dragged over to the YaroZ show. Toru Owashi was also there holding the KING OF BOYZ WRESTLING trophy he won at the last show. He was chased off by Yukio Sakaguchi and other YaroZ all wearing fundoshi.
Akito apologised to the audience after the show for the constant interruptions. He thinks sometimes it is okay for BOYZ and YaroZ to work together and he hopes the two sides can get along to do a single show together someday. It probably won’t be the next show though.

6. Uchibo, Sotobo, Dai Boso! Chiba Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Yuji Hino Vs HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes & Yuki Iino
Konosuke Takeshita made a request to take April off from DDT. He isn’t sick or injured. Instead he wants to take a chance to evolve into something stronger and needs to be away for a month to do it. Sounds kind of familiar, doesn’t it? If it means what I think it means then I couldn’t be happier for the guy. Anyway he returns to DDT on 4th May.

An email sent from the address new.damnation.japan.com@gmail.com was sent to the DDT office asking for an opportunity to be recruited for DAMNATION. The mystery person asked for Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao Vs Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka to take place on the BOYZ show. Oh, and the email is signed under Jun Masaoka’s name. The email was forwarded to BOYZ producer Akito and after some consideration he agreed to put the match together.

Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 1st Floor
DDT’s newest signing Yusuke Okada really wants to be part of the BOYZ brand. Unfortunately everyone else thinks he is more suited to YaroZ whether he likes it or not. So for the BOYZ Vs YaroZ double booking, Okada will be wrestling on the YaroZ show.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
There have been two wrestlers who have either stood up to Jun Akiyama or criticized his role in DDT. Akiyama just dispatched of Kazusada Higuchi so he now has to take care of Danshoku Dieno. Dieno accepted that Akiyama became part of DDT’s history when he signed a contract but the temptation of becoming KO-D Openweight Champion one more time means he cannot stay quiet anymore! If Akiyama hasn’t experienced full blown DDT before, he will now.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STILL INCOMPLETE”, 17/04/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Nao Kakuta
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Maki Itoh
A criticism that has been aimed towards Nao Kakuta since she started wrestling for TJPW is that she is too normal to stand out. Even her challenge to Yuki Kamifuku for the International Princess Title was considered plain or even a bit boring according to the champion. Kakuta thinks it is fine to be normal. She can be called the Normal Of Normal Princess as far as she is concerned. Her other nickname is “Rat Chaser” (she used to have a catgirl gimmick) and she found her rat in the form of Kamifuku. All she has to do now is catch her! Kakuta also said that she has no senpai or kohai figures in TJPW because she came from somewhere else so she feels comfortable enough to stretch out and use her own fighting styles that she likes.

The spotlight shines on Super Sasadango Machine and Gorgeous Matsuno in Niigata.
Whether he wins the KO-D Tag Team Titles or not, Yuji Okabayashi will at least be around for another DDT show in April. In a match against Akiyama too.
Match #2. That is all.

2. Soma Takao defeated Hideki Okatani with the Gin And Tonic (6:19).

4. KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles: Sanshiro Takagi, Yukio Naya, Chikara & Nabe Yakan defeated Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata (c) when Naya pinned Sasadango with the Back Drop (9:48).
*Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata fails in V1. Team Thoroughbred becomes the 4th KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Champions!
5. DDT 24th Anniversary Special Single Match: HARASHIMA defeated Yukio Sakaguchi with the Somao (6:03).
6. DAMNATION Vs The 37KAMIINA: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & MAO defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie when Takeshita pinned Paulie with the German Suplex (16:08).
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) defeated Kazusada Higuchi with a Running Knee Butt (21:10).
*V1 for Jun Akiyama.
The title reign can now get going for Jun Akiyama. He’s been on the losing end of a few tag matches after becoming champion but when it’s time to defend the KO-D Openweight Title, Akiyama showed you can ultimately count on him. Kazusada Higuchi kept to wrestling barefoot and using his sumo skills. Akiyama learned not to target Higuchi’s hard head so he instead went after his arm, hitting it off of the ring post while they fought outside the ring. Higuchi was still able to apply the Brain Claw but Akiyama used Knee Strikes to avoid getting slammed from the move. The Knee Strikes weakened Higuchi enough for the Wrist Clutch Exploder Suplex to be used. Higuchi kicked out at two so Akiyama pulled down his kneepad and hit another Running Knee Butt, this time to the back of Higuchi’s head. That pretty much knocked Higuchi out and he was pinned for the three count.
The deal made in the build up to the match was if Higuchi lost, he would finally start listening to Coach Akiyama’s orders. Akiyama ordered him to wrap the KO-D Title around his waist. Higuchi agreed, simply answering with “Hai!” He left the ring with Eruption’s help afterwards. With him dealt with, Akiyama can now move on from all of his defeats from the D-Ou Grand Prix. He then wondered if Danshoku Dieno, the other DDT wrestler who has been critical of Akiyama’s new role, would come and face him.
Dieno did so and wouldn’t stop staring at Akiyama’s waist. Akiyama asked what was Dieno looking at, the belt or his body? Dieno said both. DDT has now been around for 24 years and Dieno has been with them for less than 20. He doesn’t know everything about DDT but he is attached to the KO-D Title. He named many of the wrestlers who are former KO-D Champions throughout the years: Poison Sawada JULIE, Sanshiro Takagi, Takashi Sasaki, MIKAMI, Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega, Shigehiro Irie, Hikaru Sato, Masahiro Takanashi, Ken Ohka, HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi, KUDO, Konosuke Takeshita and Tetsuya Endo. They all fought for DDT and bring it to where it is today. Dieno has kept his feelings to himself for so long. Now is the time for him to let them out and take back the KO-D Title he loves so much! Hisaya Imabayashi accepted Dieno’s request and he will get a title shot on 11th April. Dieno was a little annoyed that the match isn’t booked for the next supercard but he gets it. DDT doesn’t expect him to win. He tapped the title belt around Akiyama’s waist and then tapped him in the crotch for good measure before leaving with his middle fingers sticking out. What’s more is now Makoto Oishi is in a conflicting position. Does he side with Akiyama or Dieno?
The supercard mentioned above is “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2021” which is confirmed to be taking place this summer. It will be held at Fujitsu Stadium Kawasaki on 21st August, marking the first time a “WRESTLE PETER PAN” show is taking place outdoors. And yes, this is the same location where FMW ran their famous anniversary shows during the nineties. Technically not the same venue because it’s been redeveloped a lot since then though.
The announcement got The 37KAMIINA excited and motivated enough to win their first match as a complete group. Takeshita dumped Mad Paulie with the Last Ride. Yuki Ueno & MAO then launched Shunma Katsumata into the air for him to land a Splash on Paulie for a two count. Paulie fought back until Takeshita put him away with the German Suplex.
HARASHIMA and Sakaguchi faced off in a preview of their KO-D Tag Team Titles match on 11th April. They went hard at each other with Middle Kicks and High Kicks. Sakaguchi hit the God’s Right Knee but HARASHIMA staggered him back with a Jumping High Kick. That gave him the space to hit the Somato and win. HARASHIMA said he was happy to have a singles match like this on DDT’s 24th anniversary. He considers Sakaguchi to be from the same generation as him so working together today gave him more encouragement. That thought stuck with him more than the tag title match preview.
Takagi lived up to his promise to make Team Thoroughbred the new KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Champions. The defending champions Shinya Aoki, Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata all tried doing the Bionic Elbow at the same time but it failed. Team Thoroughbred then all tried doing Saber Chops to Sasadango and it succeeded, with Nabe Yakan doing a jumping version. Yukio Naya then pinned Sasadango with the Back Drop to win the titles. Chikara dedicated the win to his father Mitsuo Momota. He is currently hospitalized with an illness. Chikara knows his title win today will cheer up his father and be a driving force for his recovery. Backstage Takagi said Team Thoroughbred will ultimately have seven members and he hopes to create a 14-Man Tag Team Championship for them to win.
Oishi’s conflict over choosing between Akiyama and Dieno is because he wants to fight for what’s right to him. That means not doing any of Dieno’s usual strategies when they teamed up. Oishi kept taking their trios match seriously, calling on the ref to stop Dieno from grabbing crotches and preventing Toru Owashi from entering the ring because they were not using lucha tag rules. Dieno tried teaming with Saki Akai instead but it just wasn’t the same. Oishi finally gave in and Dieno went into the Hell Gate position. Oishi tried to throw his opponents into Dieno but he was easily overpowered and his face was pushed into Dieno’s backside. The lights flashed to show that Oishi was now in a zombie state! Akai got rid of Owashi & Akito while Dieno pinned Keigo Nakamura with the Gaydo Clutch. The lights flickered again and Oishi came back to his senses.
Soma Takao put Hideki Okatani through the ringer. He provoked him by showing off his KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title belt. He threw him into the security barrier a lot and Body Slammed him onto the floor. Okatani didn’t get counted out and fought back, hitting the Northern Lights Suplex for a two count. Takao hit a counter Elbow Strike and won with the Gin And Tonic.
Now that he is full time with DDT, Yusuke Okada is quickly making new contacts. His first time team up with Yuki Iino went well. Iino eliminated Chris Brookes with a Spear. That gave Okada all the space he needed to submit Toui Kojima with a Crab Hold. Okada wants the DDT fans to keep their eyes on him.
A mysterious email was sent to the DDT office regarding the BOYZ show on 4th April. The email claims to be sent from Jun Masaoka and is demanding a tag match between him & Brookes against Tetsuya Endo & Takao at the BOYZ show. However the email address matches that used by DAMNATION whenever they send threatening messages to match makers. Okada asked if he could also be on the BOYZ show but Imabayashi told him he is already booked for YaroZ that same day.
The five teams entering Ultimate Tag League 2021 are Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi (representing Eruption), Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi (representing Junretsu), Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata (representing The 37KAMIINA), Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda (representing Europe) and Daisuke Sasaki & Yuji Hino (representing DAMNATION).

The theme of today’s BOYZ show was the New BOYZ Army Vs Old BOYZ Army in a battle to determine which generation are the best BOYZ. The Old BOYZ Army didn’t like their team name and thought the BOYZ Older Brothers Army would have been more flattering.
The scheduled main event was a 5 Vs 5 Gauntlet match. Yuki Ueno didn’t think Toru Owashi belonged in BOYZ. Owashi pulled out a marker and tried to draw on Ueno’s face in response to that opinion. Ueno got the marker instead and scribbled on Owashi’s face while he was hanging over the ropes before kicking him out of the ring for the elimination. Owashi got some revenge by helping HARASHIMA eliminated Ueno by pulling him over the ropes and to the floor. Ueno distracted the referee so Toui Kojima could attack HARASHIMA but his chops didn’t do any damage. HARASHIMA got rid of Kojima but that left him open for Chris Brookes to throw him out of the ring. Kojima continued to play a role in the match by catching Brookes to avoid him getting eliminated. That plan failed when Keisuke Ishii went under the ropes and knocked them down so Brookes would touch the floor. Ishii built some momentum by pinning MAO until he was beaten by Konosuke Takeshita. At this point interference was happening from both teams wherever you looked. They all cancelled each other out but the end result to Takeshita and Kazuki Hirata was still a double elimination when Hirata sacrificed himself to eliminate his opponent too. That left Makoto Oishi for the Old BOYZ against Jun Masaoka for the New BOYZ. Masaoka kicked out of the Miracle Ecstasy and hit Oishi below the belt when the referee wasn’t watching. He then got the three count with the Ambitions cradle to win the match for the New BOYZ!
Oishi complained about the Low Blow Masaoka gave him and asked if he learned it from watching a KAIENTAI show? Masaoka said he saw one of their shows around 16 years ago. He also said Oishi was kicking his opponents below the belt 10 years ago so he has nothing to complain about!
There was a bonus main event put together by Akito. He wants BOYZ to have a championship but he doesn’t want it to be another belt. Instead he has a trophy called the KING OF BOYZ WRESTLING and the first champion will be the winner of a Battle Royal starting right now! Everyone who wrestled on the show took part and in the end, Toru Owashi was the winner. He decided to take part at the next BOYZ show on 4th April instead of the YaroZ show taking place in the same venue. Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Iino came out to complain about his decision but Owashi yelled at them to go home. This scenario left Akito worried that the BOYZ and YaroZ are going to fight over Owashi on 4th April.

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ -CHRISTMAS EVE EDITION-”, 24/12/2020
Kitazawa Town Hall
??? Fans – Withheld
1. Homoiro Clover Z Vs NωA Full Scale Battle ~ Oishi Contra Oishi: Danshoku Dieno, Akito & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Makoto Oishi ended in a draw when everyone pinned Oishi with the Combined Miracle Ecstasy (10:37).

3. On The Day Of Your Birthday! 45th Anniversary Of Toru Owashi’s Birth!: Ryuichi Sekine defeated Toru Owashi and Keigo Nakamura when Sekine pinned Nakamura with a Backslide Pin (9:08).
4. Special Referee Series Part 2: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Yasu Urano with a Bionic Elbow (10:48). (Special Referees: Antonio Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi)
5. BOYZ-Like Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Jun Masaoka with the Praying Mantis Bomb (11:15).
6. DNA Alumni Association 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Nobuhiro Shimatani & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & Mizuki Watase when Higuchi submitted Katsumata with the Canadian Backbreaker (15:47).
The main event was a throwback to DNA with each wrestler wearing their old wrestling gear from the days when they were on that brand. After the match Akito came out and thanked Shunma Katsumata for wrestling twice on the show. Katsumata complained about having to do that on Christmas Eve. He hates it so much he now hates Christmas! Makoto Oishi, Danshoku Dieno and MAO came out to try and cheer him up because the BOYZ were supposed to give a present to the all female audience. Instead, they told Katsumata to close his eyes because the women were going to give him a gift. When he opened them back up he saw the audience waving glow sticks to music for him. This made Katsumata happy because it felt like a sauna for his eyes. He thanked everyone and asked when the next BOYZ show will take place. Akito said it will happen next March.
Chris Brookes teased Jun Masaoka by putting a Santa hat on his head at the start of the match. He also called him cute a lot. Masaoka used the referee as a shield and also a step to launch himself at Brookes to make up for the height difference. Brookes caught him in midair with a Knee Strike and immediately hit the Praying Mantis Bomb for the win.
Match #4 was only mean to have one special referee with Antonio Honda in the role. However he tripped and hurt his knee when entering the ring and called for somebody to replace him. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi came out and used his yoga knowledge to heal Honda. In return he was allowed take part in the Konosuke Takeshita Vs Yasu Urano match as the second referee. They got in each other’s way, Hiroshi missed pinfalls, tapouts and illegal moves because he was too busy exercising and Honda kept taking 1,000 yen bribes to switch sides. Takeshita appealed to Honda by setting up the Bionic Elbow but Urano blocked it. Hiroshi made fun of him over it which made Honda mad. Honda remembered that he, Takeshita and Hiroshi were all part of the same unit Happy Motels. Hiroshi remembered too and he began singing with Honda over their happy memories together. Meanwhile Takeshita hit Urano with the Bionic Elbow and won with the move. Hiroshi then sang “Amazing Grace” as one last gift for everyone.
Toru Owashi, Ryuichi Sekine and Keigo Nakamura all wanted to appeal to the audience but got little response to their antics. Wearing Santa hats didn’t work, wrestling didn’t work, writing on each other’s faces with a marker didn’t work, trying (and failing) to play a saxophone didn’t work. The only one laughing at their antics was Daisuke Kiso and that made the three of them look even more foolish. They all attacked Kiso but he fought back with a mixture of lucha and MMA spots. Nakamura encouraged Owashi to climb the top rope and win with a flying move because it is his birthday today. When Owashi got up there, Sekine rolled Nakamura over with a Backslide and stole the win. Afterwards Akito came out and surveyed the audience over who their favourite performer was in the match. Kiso received the biggest applause so he was the winner. Akito granted him a regular spot in BOYZ for his reward.
Even though Match #2 was between a DDT team and a Ganbare☆Wrestling show. However Kazuki Hirata and Shota wanted the match to be wrestled in a speedy Young Communication style. Neither of them think HARASHIMA and Shuichiro Katsumura are capable of doing that because of their age.
During the show opening ceremony, Makoto Oishi was pulled in two directions by Homoiro Clover Z and NωA. He was unintentionally dragged to the back by because both teams refused to let him go. Their match was first on the card and Oishi had to participate in the musical entrances for both teams, tiring him out before the match even began. He wrestled for both teams, switching back and forth throughout the match while each side’s music in the background changed for who he was fighting with. It reached the point where Oishi didn’t know what to do so he ended up attacking everybody in the ring! Dieno, Akito, Katsumata and MAO all worked together to fight back and they all piled on top of Oishi to pin him. Everyone except for Oishi were announced as the winners. Oishi got on the microphone and said he loves both Homoiro Clover Z and NωA so he cannot choose between them. Suddenly, Hideki Okatani ran into the ring angry at Oishi for not choosing Junretsu. Okatani stabbed Oishi and laughed as the room went dark.

BOYZ “SUMMER BOYZ VACATION!”, 16/08/2020
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall
??? Fans
1. BOYZ-like Exchange Battle!: Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shota when Takao pinned Shota with the Official Endless Waltz (10:08).
2. Shall We Dance??: Chris Brookes defeated Kazuki Hirata with the Praying Mantis Bomb (10:20).
3. Dress Code 3 Way Match: Antonio Honda Vs Mizuki Watase Vs Yumehito Imanari ended in a Triple KO (11:30). (Special Referee: MAO)
4. “Danshoku-ryu” Are You Really ALL OUT!?: Akito defeated Shunma Katsumata by Disqualification (1:42). (Special Referee: Danshoku Dieno)
4a. Rematch: Akito Vs Shunma Katsumata ended in a No Contest (9:06). (Special Referee: Danshoku Dieno)
5. Smile Nishinari Yankee First Formation!: HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Yuko Miyamoto defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Keigo Nakamura & Hideki Okatani when Miyamoto pinned Okatani with the Moonsault (14:14).
6. Nautilus Vs Makoto Oishi & Jun Masaoka♡: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Makoto Oishi & Jun Masaoka when Ueno pinned Oishi with the WR (18:22).
Vice President Akito praised everyone in the main event and thanked them all for being here. He complimented Nautilus for main eventing wrestling shows two days in a row, he thanked Jun Masaoka for coming in on short notice and he mentioned it was Makoto Oishi’s idea to bring him in. Today’s show makes Akito excited for the future of BOYZ.
Sadly there was no dance ending planned for the show. They couldn’t find the time to practice their dance routines because of the Coronavirus. Kazuki Hirata took the blame and apologized alongside Akito. Chris Brookes entered the ring trying to tell them not to apologize but was still adamant that he wasn’t going to dance. Akito and Hirata began to cry so Brookes whispered something into Hirata’s ear. Hirata excitedly brought in entrance robes and Tokyo GO! glasses. Brookes reluctantly put them on and began dancing with Hirata! Akito thanked him for saving the show.
The team of Kazusada Higuchi, Keigo Nakamura & Hideki Okatani all wrestled dressed as high school students armed with textbooks. Their behaviour was the opposite of HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Yuko Miyamoto acting like yankees. The act was thrown away when Higuchi’s team all gave the yankees Low Blows. The yankees recovered and Miyamoto pinned Nakamura with the Moonsault.
Danshoku Dieno took his referee job today seriously and was too strict to a fault. He quickly counted to five on Akito after Shunma Katsumata reached a rope break. Akito convinced him not to end the match. Dieno then quickly counted out Katsumata for standing on the top turnbuckle. This time the match did end. Akito and Katsumata agreed to an immediate rematch and were very careful not to do anything Dieno would consider a foul. Dieno got accidentally knocked out after bumping into Akito so Yukinori Matsui replaced him. When Dieno woke up he attacked Matsui to take his spot back. While those two fought each other, Akito and Katsumata continued wrestling and knocked each other out. Dieno kicked Matsui in the crotch but Matsui fell head first into Dieno’s groin. All four people in the ring were knocked out so MAO ran in wearing a referee shirt and called off the match.
MAO also showed up in the Dress Code 3 Way Match as the referee. Antonio Honda, Mizuki Watase and Yumehito Imanari all wrestled in tuxedos and the goal was to strip down your opponents. All three of them stripped each other down to their underwear. By the end they were all beaten and tired so MAO began counting them out. They all grabbed MAO at 9 to try and pull themselves up but instead MAO’s pants were pulled down revealing he was wearing a loincloth underneath. MAO reached 10 and ended the match as a Triple Knockout draw.
The theme of this month’s opening ceremony was “Apron”. Every wrestler walked out looking like they were ready to cook. Some made it look sexy, others looked like they were ready to work a shift at Ebisuko Tavern.

Kotaro Yoshino was on that show and tested positive for COVID-19 afterwards. Asahi & Yamato both agreed to cancel their appearances at the BOYZ show because of this. Jun Masaoka has been brought in to take Asahi’s place in the main event. Yamato’s match has been changed from a tag bout to a 3 Way.

The farm where he gets these beans from uses a robot called Mecha Pandita to cultivate the beans. When Onita found out about this robot he came up with an idea. He will bring this machine to Japan and modify it into a pro wrestling robot!

Tokyo Toshimaen
1. Street Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Sanshiro Takagi & Chris Brookes Vs Shinya Aoki, Caol Uno & Konosuke Takeshita
Over the years, the Toshimaen theme park in Nerima, Tokyo was a venue DDT visited several times for Street Wrestling matches. Sadly, Toshimaen will close down at the end of this month after 94 years in business. When Sanshiro Takagi heard the news he asked to wrestle there one last time. They will literally send the place out with a bang because DDT is putting together a Current Blast Death Match!
Shinya Aoki is in the match because he used to live in Nerima and would visit Toshimaen many times. He was recently reminded of the place when his ex-wife sent him an angry message. He wants to do Team Aoki Vs Team Onita and if Onita loses, he has to retire for the 8th time in his career. Onita admitted he will continue wrestling after his 8th, 9th and 10th retirements so they need to include something else to fight over. Aoki suggested Takagi and CyberFight put 50 million yen on the line. Takagi doesn’t know where the money will come from but he agreed to it so the match can go ahead. Takagi & Onita will have Chris Brookes on their team. Aoki is bringing in Konosuke Takeshita and MMA fighter Caol Uno! Aoki said that Uno is frightened of wrestling in a Current Blast Death Match but he still has the skills necessary to win.
The press conference for the match was held out in Toshimaen but quickly fell apart when a torrential rainstorm soaked everybody.
