DDT In All Japan And New Japan October Results

October 23, 2023

AJPW “NEW AGE CHRONICLE‐Z ～JUMP OVER～”, 05/10/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
332 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Atsuki Aoyagi & Rising HAYATO defeated MAO & Rukiya when HAYATO pinned Rukiya with the Sid Vicious (16:36).

There were DDT wrestlers on three All Japan shows this month for various reasons. The sudden rivalry between the two companies led to more crossovers happening. First was MAO & Rukiya showing up on a show put together by Rising HAYATO to gather together young and cool wrestlers just like him. HAYATO & Atsuki Aoyagi won in the main event thanks to HAYATO’s top rope Lionsault that is named after Sid Vicious.

NJPW “DESTRUCTION IN RYOGOKU”, 09/10/2023
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
5,002 Fans

0. Frontier Zone: YOSHI-HASHI, Toru Yano, Tiger Mask, Ryusuke Taguchi & Oskar Leube defeated Takeshi Masada, Kazuma Sumi, Kengo, Jun Masaoka & Takahiro Katori when Taguchi submitted Katori with the Oh My & Garankle (8:14).

In between all of the All Japan stuff was two DDT wrestlers showing up in New Japan. NJPW put together the Frontier Zone as a pre-show exhibition for outside wrestlers to interact with New Japan’s regulars. Kazuma Sumi got a unique experience by fighting the big young lion Oskar Leube, who was a last minute replacement for YOH. Meanwhile Takeshi Masada was more concerned over not losing the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title to anybody from New Japan. He outright told the English commentary team he would get fired if he lost the belt to a New Japan wrestler.

AJPW “HATAAGE COMMEMORATIVE SERIES 2023”, 12/10/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
266 Fans

1. AJPW Vs DDT Tag Match: Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani defeated Takao Omori & Yoshitatsu when Sakaguchi pinned Omori with a Running Knee Butt (7:26).

A few days after Takao Omori & Yoshitatsu failed to take the All Asia Tag Team Titles back from DDT, they faced the next challengers Eruption. Omori almost beat Yukio Sakaguchi with the Ax Guillotine Driver but Hideki Okatani broke the count. Sakaguchi came back and rocked Omori with the God’s Right Knee before hitting another Running Knee Butt as Omori was getting back up for the finish.

AJPW “HATAAGE COMMEMORATIVE SERIES 2023”, 21/10/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1,340 Fans

1. AJPW Vs DDT: Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya defeated Shuji Ishikawa, Ren Ayabe & Black Menso~re when Takagi pinned Menso~re with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (10:23).
2. AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Suwama, Mayumi Ozaki & Maya Yukihi defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani (c) when Suwama submitted Akai with a Vise Sleeper (12:14).
*Eruption fails in V2. Suwama, Mayumi Ozaki & Maya Yukihi become the 7th AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Team Champions!

Eruption can no longer call themselves Double Crown Champions. They dropped the AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Team Titles to the unlikely trio of Suwama, Mayumi Ozaki & Maya Yukihi over the weekend. Suwama was too strong for Akai and used his power to block the Quetzalcoatl. He instead put Akai in a tight Sleeper Hold until she passed out. The result means the AJPW 6-Man Tag Titles are now back home with All Japan for the most part. Unless Ozaki & Yukihi manipulate Suwama into giving power of the belts over to OZ Academy.

DDT did score a win against AJPW earlier in the show though. Sanshiro Takagi led his team into battle against former ally Shuji Ishikawa and even scored the winning pinfall. There was some friendly fire when Takagi rode in on the Dramatic Dream bike but crashed it into Rukiya by mistake. After the match Takagi cycled off but HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya were left behind to be ambushed by The Saito Brothers! They all brawled to the back.

DNA “DNA 38” Results

November 9, 2017

DNA “DNA 38”, 09/11/2017
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
226 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Makoto Oishi defeated Rekka with a European Clutch (7:50).
2. Kouki Iwasaki & Daiki Shimomura defeated Yuki Ueno & Koju Takeda when Iwasaki pinned Ueno with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (9:14).
3. Keisuke Okuda defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani with a Manjigatame (6:48).
4. Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto defeated Shunma Katsumata & Diego when Miyamoto pinned Katsumata with the Moonsault (12:27).
5. Mizuki Watase defeated Akira Jo with the Back Drop (13:12).
6. Kota Umeda Return Match: Kota Umeda & MAO defeated Naomi Yoshimura & Kengo when MAO pinned Yoshimura with the Cannonball 450 (15:44).

The return of Kota Umeda was just what DNA needed to fight back against Naomi Yoshimura and his attempted takeover with Kengo. Umeda got rid of Kengo and hit Yoshimura with a High Kick. From there MAO hit the Screw High Kick and then the Cannonball 450 to get the win. However their celebration was cut off by Keisuke Okuda and Akira Jo. The IGF fighters attacked the DNA wrestlers then shook hands with Yoshimura and Kengo. Yoshimura said he and Kengo have decided to join forces with Okuda and Jo. Okuda corrected him by saying this had been the plan from the beginning. They posed over the DNA wrestlers and left the ring. Umeda called them weak because they rely on surprise attacks. Also he, MAO and Mizuki Watase won their matches against them today so the DNA wrestlers are getting stronger.

Mizuki Watase survived a chair attack at ringside to beat Akira Jo, scoring the biggest singles win of his career so far. With a surge of momentum on his side, Watase challenged Okuda to a singles match.

Diego told everyone he will be leaving DDT and DNA in December because he is returning to his home in Chile. He has been in DNA for two years and is happy to make so many friends here. Shunma Katsumata challenged Diego to be his final DNA opponent. Diego agreed and will face his amigo on 13th December.

Nobuhiro Shimatani fought stubbornly against Okuda but a High Kick and the Octopus Hold put an end to his effort.

DNA “DNA 37” Results

October 12, 2017

DNA “DNA 37”, 12/10/2017
Kitasenju Theatre 1010
123 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Diego defeated Masato Kamino with the VHS (7:48).
2. Rekka defeated Dai Suzuki by TKO after a Referee Stoppage (3:17).
3. MAO & Daiki Shimomura defeated Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Ino when MAO pinned Ino with the 450 Cannonball (10:33).
4. Keisuke Okuda & Akira Jo defeated Mizuki Watase & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Okuda pinned Shimatani with a Face Kick (13:39).
5. Koju Takeda defeated Yuki Ueno with a German Suplex (10:52).
6. Kengo defeated Kouki Iwasaki with La Magistral Cradle (10:24).

Even though he was pulled from the show with a hand injury, Naomi Yoshimura still made his presence felt in the main event. He attacked Kouki Iwasaki with a chair outside the ring then when the referee was distracted from trying to get rid of him, Kengo kicked Iwasaki low. When the referee turned back to them, Kengo pinned Iwasaki with La Magistral Cradle. Yoshimura climbed into the ring after the match and was met by Yuki Ueno, MAO, Diego and Rekka. Yoshimura & Kengo fought both of them off and either threw them out of the ring or attacked them with the chair. Yoshimura gave an insincere apology about missing the match because of his injury. He and Kengo then called for anyone else in DNA to stand up to them. This led to the appearance of Kota Umeda! He cleared the ring with Dropkicks and sent Yoshimura & Kengo fleeing. Umeda said Yoshimura debuted in DNA during his absence so he can’t go around bragging about being DNA’s best. Yoshimura tried to brush Umeda off by saying he was injured but Umeda pointed out that Yoshimura is injured too. Umeda announced he is cleared to return to the ring and his first match since September 2016 will take place next month!

Last month they were teaming together but today Yuki Ueno and Koju Takeda were opponents. Ueno lost but he wants to continue wrestling with Takeda either as a team or as opponents. Takeda has a similar opinion and he wonders if there is something meaningful happening in their matches.

Keisuke Okuda showed a lot of disrespect to Mizuki Watase & Nobuhiro Shimatani in their match, furthering the grudge between the two sides. Shimatani kicked out of Okuda’s STO thanks to Watase breaking up the pin. Akira Jo got rid of Watase with a German Suplex. Okuda gave Shimatani another STO then kicked him in the head repeatedly until he stopped trying to get up. Only after that did Okuda pin him. Okuda continued to call the DNA wrestlers “elementary school students” then insulted the fans for paying money to see these students wrestle. Backstage Okuda complained about how uninteresting DNA is unlike IGF which is an amazing place! In Shimatani’s interview he said Okuda can break his arms and his legs but he will never break his heart. Watase apologised to the fans for suffering a “perfect defeat” today. He wants one more shot against Okuda to make it up for them and for all of DNA.

Dai Suzuki collapsed in pain after Rekka hit him with a Back Elbow and a Lariat in the corner. Suzuki somehow hurt his left knee during the moment and the injury was serious enough to stop the match.

DNA “DNA 36” Results

September 7, 2017

DNA “DNA 36”, 07/09/2017
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
235 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Daiki Shimomura defeated Masato Kamino with the Asai DDT (6:58).
2. Tanomusaku Toba defeated Dai Suzuki with the Backhand Blow (6:08).
3. Diego & Royce Isaacs defeated Yuki Ueno & Koju Takeda when Isaacs pinned Ueno with The Zenith (11:01).
4. Yuki Ino “Knock On” Series – 1st Match: Shigehiro Irie defeated Yuki Ino with the Cannonball Drop (12:17).
5. Keisuke Okuda & Mizuki Watase defeated Kouki Iwasaki & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Okuda pinned Shimatani with the STO (14:08).
6. Mike Bailey defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Green Tea Plunge (14:53).
7. Naomi Yoshimura & Kengo defeated MAO & Rekka when Yoshimura pinned Rekka with the Throwaway Power Bomb (18:26).

Naomi Yoshimura wanted to continue “practising” his Throwaway Power Bomb on Rekka after the main event. Diego ran out to rescue Rekka but was cut off by Yoshimura. Kouki Iwasaki then ran out and this time he was successful in protecting his friends. Yoshimura afterwards said he is looking forward to a match between him & Kengo against Iwasaki & Diego in DNA.

Iwasaki is keeping himself busy. His other feud in DNA that’s gaining steam is with Keisuke Okuda. In their tag match, Okuda & Mizuki Watase beat Iwasaki & Nobuhiro Shimatani. Okuda used the STO (which to him means Space Tornado Okuda) to pin Shimatani. Iwasaki, Okuda and Watase got into a brawl after the match. Okuda said that all the DNA wrestlers are just elementary students to him. Watase demanded him to stick around and fight him. Shimatani had finally recovered by then and offered to team with Watase for another shot at Okuda.

Shigehiro Irie wonders if Yuki Ino can grow big enough to become his rival when he returns from his excursion. Since Ino’s goal is to one day become the KO-D Openweight Champion, he relished the chance to fight a former champion in just his second wrestling match. He also got to experience just how powerful a former champion is.

Yuki Ueno & Koju Takeda enjoyed wrestling together as a team today and both want a singles match against each other in the future.

7. MAO & Rekka Vs Naomi Yoshimura & Kengo

Naomi Yoshimura’s teasing and troublemaking has reached another level when he visited DDT’s headquarters for an interview. He arrived carrying an unconscious Full Face into the room and dumped him onto a chair. He then announced who his true tag team partner for his match at the next DNA show will be. It’s Kengo from Michinoku Pro! Kengo entered the room and gave his reasons for teaming with Yoshimura. He’s been looking at all of the DNA roster’s Twitter accounts and found most of them boring. They’re always either training, cooking or taking care of their hair. This is supposed to be pro wrestling and this lot are just plastic personalities. The only guy in DNA he likes is Yoshimura because he is self-asserted. He was even approached by Yoshimura directly to ask him about teaming together. And to show how threatening they are together, they brought a gift in the form of the unconscious Full Face. Yoshimura took off his helmet and it was revealed to be the Tokyo Joshi Pro GM Tetsuya Koda with his face scribbled all over! Yoshimura threatened to do the same to Hisaya Imabayashi when Rekka came in tried to rescue him. Yoshimura shrugged him off and with Kengo, left Rekka in a beaten heap.

Yuki Ino will go through a 7 match series. First up is Shigehiro Irie!
