6. Unit Shuffle! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & HARASHIMA defeated Chris Brookes, KANON & To-y when Ueno pinned To-y with the Jul.2 (24:17).

The final ever DDT Beer Garden show inside Shinjuku FACE took place today. The main event had everyone swap around their costumes and mix up their teams, ignoring unit alliances. Chris Brookes and HARASHIMA swapped costumes, MAO and KANON swapped costumes and Yuki Ueno and To-y swapped costumes. Even KIMIHIRO and YUZUKI swapped outfits with each other! It led to everyone trying to replicate the moves and motions of the wresters they were dressed as. The two teams brawled away from the ring, leading to some confusion when Shunma Katsumata suddenly appeared in the ring wearing a spare of Ueno’s outfit that To-y was also wearing. Yuki Iino then crashed the match dressed as Yukio Naya. HARASHIMA then reappeared but this time he was dressed as Antonio Honda and he did the entire Gongitsune bit. Everybody gradually returned to their normal selves to finish off the match. At the end of the show, Ueno told everyone there was one thing he would like to see one last time in Shinjuku FACE. The “Pai Rangers” song then played over the speakers for HARASHIMA to dance to.

After recovering from the chronic hangover that kept him off yesterday’s show, Daisuke Sasaki was back to fight a fake version of himself. Fake Daisuke Sasaki showed up accompanied with Fake DAMNATION T.A members Fake Hideki Okatani and Fake MJ Paul. They confronted the real versions until all of a sudden another Daisuke Sasaki doppelganger appeared named Daision Sasaki. Daision attacked the other two until he accidentally hit himself with a chair bouncing off the ropes. Then the real Sasaki and the Fake Sasaki applied a Double Crossface Lock to make Daision give up. Daisuke Kiso wasn’t sure how to call the result so he raised the hands of both Daisuke Sasaki and Fake Daisuke Sasaki.

Shunma Katsumata’s new goal of becoming a DDT Triple Crown Champion has already gone up in smoke. Danshoku Dieno beat him in the Lariat Pro Wrestling match to win both the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and the remaining Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet. The Lariat match had everyone using the move while theme songs of famous Lariat users played throughout the action. Since NOAH’s own Junta Miyawaki was in the match, some of the non-Lariat related songs played included Naomichi Marufuji’s and Mitsuharu Misawa’s. They also played the AEW and New Japan theme songs for Kazuchika Okada.

The ending of Shinjuku FACE also spurred on the end for one of the biggest grudge matches ever associated with DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro. The two authority figures of the companies Hisaya Imabayashi and Tetsuya Koda agreed to have one final match against each other where the loser must immediately retire! It was a war that showcased heart more than physicality between the two enemies. Koda tried to summon the power of TJPW by attempting Hyper Misao’s Chickenwing Face Lock, Mizuki’s Crossface and Yuki Arai’s Finally. When they wouldn’t work he stuck Imabayashi in a Sleeper Hold that almost choked the DDT GM out. But suddenly the DDT roster all ran down to the ring to show their support for Imabayashi, motivating him to fight out of the hold. He used the Rainmaker motion to knock Koda down with a Spinning Backfist but didn’t have the heart to finally pin the man he couldn’t beat. Koda encouraged him to keep fighting and after a limp Chop Battle, Imabayashi knocked him down with one final Spinning Backfist to win the match. Koda’s sudden retirement ceremony then began only for Imabayashi to interrupt it. He said without Koda as his rival he has no reason to continue wrestling so he will be retiring alongside him! These two retirements are just for being pro wrestlers, they will continue their management roles in their respective promotions.

7. Road To PETER PAN 2026! Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata defeated MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO & YUZUKI) when Ueno submitted MAO with a Sleeper Hold (19:22).

It’s a little over two weeks until DDT graces Sumo Hall once again, this time for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026”. But before that could take place there were some things to settle in Korakuen Hall first. The Ryogoku main event got a preview today with Yuki Ueno and MAO on opposite sides of a tag match between The 37KAMIINA and Strange Love Connection. MAO & KANON tried to overwhelm Ueno with their square shaped powers but Shunma Katsumata was there to take KANON out of the picture with a Topé con Hilo. MAO went to seal the deal by giving Ueno the Michinoku Driver II but missed the Cannonball 450°. Ueno switched his gameplan to getting MAO into a Sleeper Hold whether it was catching him Blackout style or keeping a grip on him with a Body Scissors. Ueno’s relentless hold of the move kept MAO from escaping and he eventually had to tap out to the KO-D Openweight Champion.

When the match was over Ueno took the microphone and said MAO still has a long way to go. He remembers when MAO left The 37KAMIINA and fought him for the KO-D Title at Sumo Hall two years ago. Back then he thought MAO was shining so brightly he would soar to the global stage and blow the whole world away. In the two years since then, Ueno has wondered if MAO could ever become the champion who can lead DDT to the Tokyo Dome. The upcoming title match should be the most important and exciting thing that has ever happened to MAO so Ueno wants him to show the most dazzling brilliance he’s ever had on 11th August. Backstage Ueno said that MAO needs to be more fiery because he hasn’t been as passionate as he was back when he was in The 37KAMIINA. However, MAO said backstage that since he left the unit he’s cut down on drinking, given up eating ramen and has become more disciplined. He is still edgy but now he has matured a bit. Everything he’s been doing is so he can beat Ueno for the KO-D Title!

Well, Yuki Ishida has been saying for weeks how much he wants to change and he got what he wanted in the end. He wagered his hair to get a shot at the DDT Extreme Title held by Hideki Okatani and… er… he doesn’t have his hair anymore. With his best effort Ishida blocked the Claymore kick, Power Bombed Okatani and fought his way into finally hitting him with the Ensho but at the last second Okatani got his foot on the ropes to break the pin. Okatani then booted Ishida in the head over and over until he kept him down with the Claymore to win the match and claim Ishida’s hair. Okatani said after the match there is no way Ishida could beat him but he acknowledges his spirit. Ishida took it upon himself to cut his own hair and when he was finished, Okatani told him to not to forget this feeling. He also reminded Ishida the reason why he joined Harimao was because someone (Kazusada Higuchi) saw his potential so he should not give up here. When Ishida left, Hisaya Imabayashi asked Okatani who he wants to defend the Extreme Title against at Sumo Hall? There is only one man and that’s Shunma Katsumata! The two have previously fought each other for the title twice with Katsumata winning both times. Katsumata didn’t want to waste words and accepted the challenge with little else to say.

The tag team championship rivalry between FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and paleyouth that has gone on for the last month has ended in a stalemate. Fandora weren’t able to beat paleyouth for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles two weeks ago and paleyouth weren’t able to take the KO-D Tag Team Titles away from Fandora today. Yuya Koroku came prepared for HARASHIMA after the warm up matches they had leading up to today. He rolled backwards to avoid the Somato and trap HARASHIMA into an Armbar. He then got Takeshi Masada in so they could give HARASHIMA their double team finisher and although Chris Brookes was kept away from breaking the pin, HARASHIMA still kicked out of it. Koroku thought he had the match won when he landed a Moonsault Press but HARASHIMA suddenly turned the pin into an Armbar submission of his own, surprising Koroku and making him tap out to grab victory from the jaws of defeat. After the match Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki both approached the champions to ask them for a title match at Sumo Hall. HARASHIMA said he would take a challenge from anyone at anytime so they will get it.

The masked dancer Kumadori was getting some attention online in the last week with highlights of his DDT matches gaining traction on social media. He didn’t waste time showing his agility in the ring alongside Kazuma Sumi but the pace changed once Daichi Sato and Kazuki Hirata tagged in. To-y attempted some high flying of his own with the T.O.Y. Diving Cross Body but nobody was there to catch him. Hirata wanted to try the same move (he calls it H.R.T) but his legs buckled from the pressure of standing on the top rope. To-y at least got some momentum back by pulling Soma Takao’s t-shirt over his face and Machine Gun Chopping his bare chest in the corner. Even though Takao was blinded by the shirt, To-y still missed another T.O.Y. dive when Takao walked out of harm’s way. Hirata rallied his team to literally run circles around Kumadori but when it was time to put on the Hirata GO! Glasses, Kumadori kicked him away and put on his own pair! The two fought past everyone else to dance with each other until Hirata got Kumadori with a cheap shot. Kumadori stopped Hirata in his tracks to make him dance more but it was only so he could roll up Hirata in a School Boy and pin him for the victory.

Ilusion recently introduced his own version of the Right To Challenge Gauntlet to use on existing Gauntlet holders but ended up losing it to Rukiya. So now Ilusion was on the hunt to win one of the regular Gauntlets currently held by Viento Levante. Speaking of Levante, his focus is on winning the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles with SLC at Sumo Hall. Having a Gauntlet for a KO-D Title shot is just a bonus for him at the moment. Ilusion & Daisuke Sasaki attacked Levante & Yukio Naya before the bell. They also had MJ Paul at ringside interfering for DAMNATION T.A unlike KIMIHIRO & YUZUKI who were both there for SLC. However Levante dodged a chair attack from Suzuki and Naya stopped DAMNATION T.A from further using the weapon. Naya then Choke Slammed Ilusion into position for Levante to do the Diving Headbutt and win the match. Backstage Levante promised he will not cash in his Gauntlet until after “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026”. He is tempted to steal the glory from MAO that night but is thinking about cashing in somewhere else afterwards.

The (one-sided) rivalry between Sanshiro Takagi and Minoru Suzuki was brought back to the forefront but there is now going to be a twist in the tale. Before the match began, a camera backstage filmed Takagi complaining to the GM Imabayashi about not having a match booked for Sumo Hall yet. Imabayashi told him if he could win his match he would consider putting him on the card. Takagi had Danshoku Dieno as his tag partner to fight Suzuki & Jun Akiyama but that was not enough of an X factor to get him his desired result. Dieno almost lured Akiyama into the Danshoku Driver but he ended up getting the Exploder Suplex instead. Akiyama then held Dino in a Front Neck Lock and Dieno gave up when Takagi accidentally shoved is own face into Dieno’s backside while trying to escape a Manjigatame that Suzuki put him in. After the match Imabayashi told Takagi he won’t be wrestling at Sumo Hall but Suzuki says otherwise. Suzuki was actually impressed at how Takagi defended himself from the Manjigatame so he wants the two of them to team up at Sumo Hall! Imabayashi couldn’t refuse Suzuki’s idea and went to work with putting a match together. It was later revealed that Suzuki & Takagi will face Kazuki Hirata & To-y on the show.

Before the team up of Shinya Aoki and Junta Miyawaki happened, the two faced off against each other in a singles match first. The two went back and forth with holds and counters. At one point Aoki used the ropes to his advantage to tangle up Miyawaki but Miyawaki got some moments of control whether it was using an Osui Suplex Hold for a nearfall or a Cattle Mutilation to stretch out Aoki. He also hit the Sunshine Driver but Aoki kicked out of the pin. Miyawaki then went for the Sunshine Clutch but Aoki found a way to reverse it and get the three count out of nowhere. It was backstage after the match when Miyawaki caught up with Aoki telling him he wants to wrestle with him more. Aoki suggested the two of them chase after the KO-D Tag Titles which led to them making the challenge to Fandora later in the show.

The pre-show and the introduction had some major implications for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. During the dark match both Yuni and Rukiya felt like marked men with Yuni holding the Iron Man Title and Rukiya holding the RTC Gauntlet that can be cashed in on other Gauntlet holders. Hinata Kasai wanted to pin Yuni quickly to win the title but Naomi Yoshimura was there to throw both him around. Antonio Honda struggled to contain Yuni at points but had the wherewithal to block a Jacknife Pin and press himself down to get the three count and win the Iron Man Title. Both Masami Inahata and Rukiya tried to pin Honda after the match but Honda escaped the ring.

Honda would then reappear at ringside during the show opening announcements. Three members of The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) were in the ring with Imabayashi at the time to promote Tokyo Joshi Pro’s upcoming appearances at the Tokyo Idol Festival. Honda tripped over the ropes on his way into the ring so he decided to tell The Up Up Girls his latest Gongitsune joke. Obviously his sense of humour isn’t appropriate for the idols so Miu Watanabe and Uta Takami both covered their ears. That made them defenceless so Honda got the both of them with Gongitsune eye pokes. Raku however countered him with a lullaby that sent both Honda and Imabayashu to sleep. She then quietly pinned Honda to become the latest Iron Man Champion! Remember that whoever enters the Iron Man Title Battle Royal at Sumo Hall as the defending champion will receive a bullet train travel pass for one year as their prize!

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2026 ~AYU COLISUEM IN ATSUGI~” Results

July 5, 2026

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2026 ~AYU COLISUEM IN ATSUGI~”, 05/07/2026
Kanagawa Rembrandt Hotel Atsugi Grand Banquet Sagami
??? Fans – Unannounced

4. Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato defeated Kazuma Sumi, Yuki Ishida & Rukiya when Koroku submitted Rukiya with the Chickenwing Arm Lock (8:23).
5. Jun Akiyama & Junta Miyawaki defeated Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata when Akiyama pinned Katsumata with a School Boy (10:17).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Chris Brookes defeated KIMIHIRO (c) by Pinfall (2:40 pm).
*Chris Brookes becomes the 1,837th champion.
6. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC Vs STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION!: Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda defeated MAO, KANON & Viento Levante (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Honda pinned Levante with a Forward Rolling Cradle (22:59).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: KIMIHIRO defeated Chris Brookes (c) by Pinfall (3:03 pm).
*KIMIHIRO becomes the 1,838th champion.

There was an Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title change that happened during the main event when Chris Brookes attacked KIMIHIRO outside the ring and pinned him on the floor to become the champion. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC went on to win the main event but Strange Love Connection got a small measure of revenge when they all picked up KIMIHIRO and threw him over the ropes onto Fantoma so he could pin Brookes and win back the belt. However that title reign was short lived because later at a fan event inside the venue, Kazuki Hirata appeared in his Hammer Hirata persona and assaulted KIMIHIRO with a hammer to win the title for himself.

The general manager of this Rembrandt Hotel branch instructed DDT that Danshoku Dieno was now allowed to expose his ass during his match. Hisaya Imabayashi bribed To-y before the match to prevent Dieno from pulling his tights down despite the two of them being on the same team. When Dieno found out what was going on, he offered To-y an even bigger bribe to let him do his thing. To-y went along with it but that caused Imabayashi to interfere for To-y breaking their deal. To-y ended up throwing Imabayashi into Dieno’s Hell Gate then did the same to Hirata before pinning him with the Kojima In Wonderland. The hotel manager then had a change of heart after seeing everything which Imabayashi didn’t like. He tried to throw the manager into Dieno’s Hell Gate and was able to do it despite Sanshiro Takagi trying to stop him.

Before the show began a birthday cake was brought down to the ring to celebrate several birthdays happening this month. HARASHIMA, Viento Levante and Masami Inahata were all born in July along with the general manager of the Rembrandt Hotel that the show was held in.

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) defeated Shinya Aoki with the Sleeper Hold (21:48).
*V8 for Yuki Ueno.

There was no repeat from what happened back in 2024. This time Yuki Ueno was able to put Shinya Aoki away and remain the KO-D Openweight Champion. It was a complete swap of results from two years ago as this time Ueno was able to make Aoki submit instead of the other way around. He had to go that direction because Aoki avoided the WR and used the Aoki Clutch to try and win. Ueno kicked out of the move and got to use his finisher except Aoki still had enough movement left in him to avoid getting pinned. Ueno had to instead stick Aoki in a grounded Sleeper Hold and make him tap out to finally win. After the match Ueno thanked Aoki for becoming part of the DDT family and said how much he respects him from the bottom of his heart.

There is still some time to go until “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” takes place in Sumo Hall on 11th August. It’s enough time for a surprise title defence or two to happen before then but Ueno was given the nod by Hisaya Imabayashi to choose his Ryogoku challenger. Ueno brought up his goal to bring DDT to the Tokyo Dome and in order to do that he feels he must come up with a match that can sell out Sumo Hall first. The opponent he wants to fight in front of a packed Sumo Hall is MAO! This will also be a title rematch from 2024 in the same building. MAO calls himself a realist because he wonders if he can really make it to the Tokyo Dome. He thinks he can because he has become stronger that he was two years ago and is carrying none of the burdans from back then. He accepts the challenge to determine who will win between DDT’s Prince and DDT’s square shaped devil!

The 8-Man Tag between FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and DAMNATION T.A was a little preview for the mystery tag match at Sumo Hall that Daisuke Sasaki and Antonio Honda are both involved with. It was also an opportunity for Hinata Kasai to earn his first win. His partners helped out by weakening Sasaki using Chris Brookes’s Penalty Kick, HARASHIMA’s Swan Dive Body Press and Honda’s Fist Drop. Kasai then applied the STF for the finish but Sasaki got out of it by biting Kasai’s hand. After that MJ Paul hit Kasai with a chairshot from ringside and Hideki Okatani followed it up with the Claymore Kick. Ilusion wiped out the other Fandora wrestlers with a Trust Fall dive out of the ring while Sasaki made Kasai give up to the Crossface Lock.

Sasaki then had an announcement to make after the match. Both he and Honda need to find their own tag partners for their Sumo Hall match. Sasaki revealed he has found a suitable partner and played a video of him recruiting DOUKI from New Japan! The addition of the House Of Torture wrestler had Honda beginning to worry about the match. He told Sasaki when it will be time for him to reveal his tag partner, Sasaki’s going to act like it is an unfair choice too. Backstage Sasaki said he’s known DOUKI going back to before he was even DOUKI. Sasaki also recently just came back from Thailand where he claimed to have learned Muay Thai during his stay so he thinks he will take Honda down in seconds.

No referee? No problem! It was up to the audience to count the pinfall during the grudge match between MAO and Sanshiro Takagi. Not even the most stringent wrestling official could get in the way of MAO and Takagi’s crazy ideas for the match. Takagi made his entrance through the Korakuen Hall seating only to get run over by MAO riding the Dramatic Dream bike. He then crashed a scooter into Takagi along with a cart with KIMIHIRO sitting on it at ringside. Takagi fought back by bringing a toilet into the ring so he could DDT MAO into it. The fans were aided with on-screen instructions to count either fast or slow much to the wrestlers’ chagrin. The fan count would only register when it was determined the majority of them reached to three. MAO then played mind games by showing video footage of him running over Takagi in different vehicles over the past six years. The trauma effected Takagi so much that when MAO pulled out a small remote control van it caused Takagi more mental damage. Takagi was able to fight back using Stunners but the crowd only made it to a collective 2.9 before MAO kicked out. MAO got his own nearfall using the Michinoku Driver II so he placed a plastic box on top of his opponent and hit the Cannonball 450° through it for the three count. He then added insult to injury by driving the toy van into Takagi’s beaten body. With this win, MAO now considers himself to be Takagi’s successor so he encourages everyone else to DDT to become as crazy as he is and carry the weight of DDT with pride!

Kazuma Sumi came back from his eye injury with something in particular being stuck in his mind. But first he had a 6-Man Tag Match against paleyouth to get through. He got to show he didn’t lose a step in his brief absence by going toe to toe with Takeshi Masada. His partners Yuni & Kumadori pulled off some big dives late in the match. But when it came down to Yuni, he became overwhelmed by Yuya Koroku and then Daichi Sato who put him away with a Rolling Elbow.

After the match Sumi talked about how frustrating it was he had to miss the recent DDT Vs New Japan show due to his injury. He was annoyed in particular by seeing the NJPW young lion Tatsuya Matsumoto beat Hinata Kasai. Sumi can’t stand seeing DDT lose to NJPW like this so he made a demand to defend his DDT Universal Title against a wrestler from New Japan. Suddenly the lights in the room went out and when they switched back on, Ryusuke Taguchi was standing right behind Sumi! Akito was there too in his CyberFight Director form to announce he just so happened to have already booked Taguchi for Sumo Hall so Sumi can give him a title shot on that show. Sumi said it is a dream for him to reach the top of the Junior Heavyweight scene and asked Taguchi if he could be his stepping stone? Taguchi responded that Kota Ibushi and Kenny Omega have used him as such to help them spread their wings to the world so he will do his best to do the same for Sumi. However after they shook hands, Taguchi suddenly hit Sumi with the Hip Attack and warned him to be careful otherwise he will be used as a stepping stone by somebody else!

By wrestling back and forth between DDT and NOAH recently, Yuki Iino is developing a balancing act between his DDT form and his Jonetsu MAX form. The Iino that wrestled today isn’t quite the same persona as the one that just won the GHC Tag Team Titles. Still, he and KANON worked as a well oiled duo in order to beat Shunma Katsumata & To-y. Iino even pulled off his cap at the end to show everyone his Jonetsu double mohawk before pinning To-y with a Lariat.

With Strange Love Connection getting the victory, KIMIHRIO did a rap for Iino to reintroduce him to the fans. Iino didn’t quite get what he was doing while Katsumata also felt provoked by it. He felt so provoked that he suddenly started a rap battle against KIMIHIRO in the ring! Katsumata quickly realised the mistake he made and said he gave up. But as Katsumata left the ring, Yukinori Matsui took the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from him and handed it over to KIMIHIRO because KIMIHIRO just technically beat the champion by submission! Katsumata tried to take the belt back but the rest of SLC were there to stop him and make sure KIMIHIRO would leave the show as the new champ.

Rules had to be changed for Match #2 thanks to Kazuki Hirata. He ended up fighting the other team all on his own and quickly lost the match before Minoru Suzuki or Danshoku Dieno could even make their entrance. Imabayashi decided to restart the match with the added rule that Hirata could only lose the match if he gets beaten three times. Jun Akiyama immediately pinned Hirata before Dieno made it to the ring. Masami Inahata then made Hirata tap out before Suzuki’s music even hit. Inahata almost did it again but Suzuki got there in time to physically stop Hirata from tapping out. The match went on as normal from there. Except the normality went away when Rukiya rubbed his hands against Dieno’s bare backside and then grabbed Hirata in a Camel Clutch to make him give up and lose the match for good.

Today was Soma Takao’s first match since January. He’s been on the shelf since then dealing with an old knee injury and used his comeback to show off a new ring costume to go along with his trusty Dropkick Bar shirt. Yuki Ishida also had something new to show with a slightly changed hairstyle but nobody really noticed his attempt at changing himself into something new. He still played his part at keeping Naomi Yoshimura away so Yukio Naya could play spoiler and end Takao’s comeback match with a loss. Takao said he was happy to be in the ring with other members of the Dropkick Bar and also wrestle in front of the newer DDT fans who may never seen any of his matches before.

DDT welcomed back Miles Karu for another appearance during his excursion to Japan. He brought along his MYPW Southeast Asia Title to the ring for his pre-show match teaming with Akito. Does this mean Junta Miyawaki can now lay claim for a title shot because he & Viento Levante won the match when Miyawaki pinned Karu with the Sunshine Driver.

Another special guest from another wrestling promotion will appear at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” this August. YAMATO from Dragon Gate attended the show so he could step into the DDT ring for the first time (not counting the “DRAMATIC DREAM GATE” joint show from 2012). He was relieved to find out the DDT fans know who he is and he wants to be given a suitable opponent comparable to his stature as a wrestler who built an era in his own company. Guess what? His opponent is going to be Danshoku Dieno. YAMATO argued the match is happening ten years too late because nobody wants to see two old men like them getting it on. The DDT fans disagree and started chanting for the match to happen. YAMATO reluctantly accepted the challenge but warned Dieno his Danshoku tactics won’t work on him.

Even though the KO-D Title match is now set for Sumo Hall, it may not be Ueno going into it as champion. The Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets are back for another year! There will be only two Gauntlets this time and possessing one will give the holder a KO-D Title shot whenever they want from the period between 15th July to 27th September. The matches to determine the holders will take place at the Beer Garden shows taking place on 15th and 16th July.

DDT “DDT X GRAND HAMMER ROJO WRESTLING SHOWDOWN AT SHIMBASHI BUSHO YOKOCHO” Results

June 27, 2026

DDT “DDT X GRAND HAMMER ROJO WRESTLING SHOWDOWN AT SHIMBASHI BUSHO YOKOCHO”, 27/06/2026
Tokyo Grand Hammer
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Falls Count Anywhere 6-Man Tag Match: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato defeated Yukio Naya, Yuki Ishida & Masami Inahata when Masada pinned Inahata with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki onto Chairs (9:50).
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Falls Count Anywhere Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & Yuni defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata (c) when Katsumata pinned Hirata with the Sauna Trance Splash from the Ladder (11:50).
*Shunma Katsumata becomes the 1,835th champion.
3. Falls Count Anywhere Special 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Minoru Suzuki & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda and MAO, KANON & Viento Levante (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Ueno pinned Honda with a Diving Body Press from the Ladder through the Table (20:25).

Stormy weather in Tokyo didn’t stop DDT from holding their Falls Count Anywhere matches inside Tokyo Grand Hammer. It helps that the fighting was kept indoors for the most part. It was only the main event that ever so briefly went outside when Minoru Suzuki threw both MAO and KIMIHIRO out of the building into the rain. The rest fought each other among the fans while making sure not to touch the display of warlord armour that was behind where the matches took place. Suzuki turned on Yuki Ueno by putting him in a Sleeper Hold that left him laying on top of a table. Antonio Honda climbed up a nearby ladder only for Suzuki to sneakily climb up behind him so he could put him in the Sleeper Hold too. Honda used Gongitsune to free himself and send Suzuki climbing back down. Ueno then got Honda onto the table, climbed the ladder and did a Diving Body Press through the table for the victory. Suzuki came back to set Ueno up for the Gotch-Style Piledriver but Ueno escaped to safety. To-y didn’t want the show to end because he felt there was still time for everyone to go party with the fans.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title now belongs to Shunma Katsumata after he pinned Kazuki Hirata in Match #2. Hirata was knocked on top of Danshoku Dieno so Katsumata did the Sauna Trance Splash from the ladder onto both of them before pinning Hirata. He tried to celebrate with Yuni afterwards only for Yuni to roll him up for a nearfall.

9. Double Main Event I – Shosho Kogyo Presents Special Tag Match ~ Infinite Stimulation Anniversary: Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes defeated HARASHIMA & Shinya Aoki when Brookes pinned HARASHIMA with a Modified Samson Clutch (16:44).
10. Double Main Event II – Special Tag Match ~ A Ruthless Giant That Blocks The World Guide Us To Our Dreams Blooming Flower: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Yuki Ueno defeated Jun Akiyama & Shuji Ishikawa when Takeshita pinned Ishikawa with the Raging Fire (22:29).

For the second year in a row, Yukinori Matsui’s annual Osaka show was headlined by Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno teaming up together. This time around they took on a more honorable set of opponents, Jun Akiyama & Shuji Ishikawa. Although as soon as Takeshita and Ishikawa face off to start the match, Ishikawa quickly knocked down his opponent with a big Elbow Strike. He also gave Ueno a Giant Swing outside the ring throwing his into the front row of abandoned chairs. Akiyama also wrestled more aggressively but Takeshita launched a comeback that included giving Ishikawa a Superplex. He combined the Jumping Knee with Ueno’s Dropkick to knock over Ishikawa and then Ueno did a Moonsault onto Akiyama outside the ring. Ishikawa was able to kick out of the Wagamama but Takeshita lifted him up for the Raging Fire and dropped him back down to get the win. Both Takeshita & Ueno showed their gratitude to Matsui after the match.

The other big match for the show involved Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes teaming up again as SchadenTekkers (with matching purple gear between them) to take on HARASHIMA & Shinya Aoki. It would be the first time Sabre and Aoki got to wrestle each other. That confrontation was not enough to determine who was beter. Instead Brookes got the result by pinning HARASHIMA with a Samson Clutch. Aoki wished he could have gotten to fight Sabre for a little longer. Sabre suggested they have a singles match together the next time they meet. He also called Aoki one of the best submission wrestlers he has ever fought.

A ringside chairshot from Dick Togo stunned Shunma Katsumata and left him vulnerable to Hideki Okatani to finish him off.

KANON was made into the target of everyone’s comedy in Match #6. That meant he was the one tricked to hop in the air while nobody else joined him. MAO and KIMIHIRO then got into dueling Figure 4 Leg Locks with Kuishinbo Kamen & Kikutaro, leaving KANON out in the cold. When the four of them all got caught in the holds, KANON simply rolled them all over so he could put both Kamen & Kikutaro in a Camel Clutch. He got both of them to then give up. He doesn’t understand why he had to go through that in Osaka today but he admitted it was fun.

Kyoto indie wrestler Hiroaki Taniguchi came in as a substitute for the injured Masami Inahata in Match #5.

The mixed rules fight between Bushimasa and Tyson Maeguchi was a two round contest. The first round was MMA rules that lasted for three minutes. Then the second round was Tyre Boxing Rules where a tyre was placed in the middle of the ring and they had to fight while keeping one foot each inside the tyre hole. Maeguchi punched Bushimasa out of the tyre three times to earn a TKO style victory.

Ilusion had something of a trial by fire in his match. He often got himself isolated away from Magnitude Kishiwada & MJ Paul then had to find ways to get to safety. However he successfully Low Blowed both CIMA & Akito while Kishiwada took care of Yasu Urano. Ilusion then got the last laugh by getting the pin with the Swanton Bomb.

The 4 Vs 1 Handicap match had to be restarted because Hisaya Imabayashi wasn’t happy to see Yuto Kikuchi win it so easily. Kikuchi ended up giving him a Low Blow late in the rematch before winning again the second time.

It was a packed house for the show but that caused a little bit of a problem. While Sanshiro Takagi was giving the show opening speech, Keiko Takeshita (Konosuke’s mom) was seen walking around the venue looking for her seat. Takagi and Imabayashi invited her into the ring to say hello to the fans but she ended up attacking them with chops to the chest instead. Matsui tried to stop her because she was ruining the start of his show again just like last year. She gave him the Rainmaker and finished off the opening call by herself.

DDT “SAPPORO GOLDEN BATTLE 2026” Results

May 2, 2026

DDT “SAPPORO GOLDEN BATTLE 2026”, 02/05/2026
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Junta Miyawaki & Yukio Naya defeated Kazuma Sumi & Yuki Ishida when Miyawaki pinned Ishida with the Sunshine Driver (9:32).
2. Reverse Lumberjack ~Jackberlum Match~: Danshoku Dieno defeated Kazuki Hirata and Akito by a 5-Count Double Countout (7:42).
3. Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata defeated Tomoya & Hinata Kasai when Inahata submitted Kasai with a Cran Hold (7:39).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Takeshi Masada & Kumadori defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul when Akiyama submitted Paul with the Front Neck Lock (11:38).
5. Sapporo Studio Five Presents Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Art Is A Battle! Rules: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when To-y pinned Honda with the Kojima Impact (15:01).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato (c) defeated MAO, KANON & Viento Maligno (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Masada pinned Maligno with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (22:49).
*V3 for paleyouth.

A big mental block was placed on Yuya Koroku by Strange Love Connection before the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match began. KIMIHIRO taunted Koroku with a rap and then encouraged him to respond in kind. Koroku couldn’t do it though and was left shaken by this mental block. KIMIHIRO tried to do it again but Takeshi Masada got him to shut up and paleyouth attacked SLC to start the match. The champions retained the belts when Masada pinned Viento Maligno to win. KIMIHIRO then handed over the microphone to Koroku afterwards to make a victory speech. Masada told Koroku the meaning of this was significant so he can’t just do a regular speech. Koroku agreed and was able to give everyone a “Yuya Rap” instead.

The semi-main event was sponsored by Sapporo Studio Five, a photography studio so the match had a special rule where pinfalls and submissions only counted if the poses looked highly artistic. Saki Akai often works with the studio so she was involved in the match as a special guest commentator speaking over a live microphone at ringside. Despite being retired for two and a half years, she was drawn to get back into the ring gradually rediscovered her wrestling abilities. She blocked Antonio Honda’s Gongitsune attack and redirected it towards Chris Brookes. That cause Brookes to attack Akai in retaliation but she avoided the Praying Mantis Bomb and even gave Brookes the Quetzalcoatl! To-y went on to beat Honda and his prize was a free photoshoot at Sapporo Studio Five the next time he visits the area. Both Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata were jealous and wanted the prize for themselves. To-y wouldn’t give it to them but he did reveal that DDT’s next shows in Sapporo are on 11th and 12th October.

Match #2 was turned into a Reverse Lumberjack match, or a Jackberlum match if you will. The wrestlers had to start fighting outside the ring and whenever there are at least two of them in the ring, the referee would start a 5 Count and disqualify whoever is still in the ring when he reaches five. A ref bump prevented Kazuki Hirata from winning the match while he and Akito were in the ring. Danshoku Dieno grabbed Hirata from the ring apron and gave him the Lip Lock. Akito then stumbled into Hirata in the middle of the ring to inadvertedly give him the Lip Lock too, knocking both of them out. Yukinori Matsui then counted out Akito and Hirata while Dieno stood out on the ring apron celebrating his victory.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2026 ~TOBIKIRI ZENKAI POWER~” Results

April 5, 2026

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2026 ~TOBIKIRI ZENKAI POWER~”, 05/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

0. Dark Match: Rukiya defeated Yuni with the Proto Bomb (6:12).

6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA defeated MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) when HARASHIMA pinned KANON with the Swan Dive Somato (12:26).
*STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION fails in V5. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC become the 89th KO-D Tag Team Champions!
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Harimao Last Match: Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida (w/ Kazusada Higuchi) defeated Shunma Katsumata, Kota Umeda & Kouki Iwasaki when Ishida pinned Katsumata with the Ensho (19:56).

If it was Kazusada Higuchi he would want to wrestle a little bit longer but today he had to retire from pro wrestling, ending his eleven year career over a neck injury. Having already wrestled his last match due to doctor’s orders, Higuchi had to serve as a second for Harimao in the main event 6-Man Tag Match. The sumo themed unit agreed to split up because of Higuchi’s retirement and today would be their last match together. Their opponents were three wrestlers who Higuchi grew up with in the DDT New Attitude developmental brand that existed from 2014 to 2018. It brought back some old rivalries likes the one between Ryota Nakatsu and Kota Umeda. Higuchi did take one more chance to get physical by throwing Chops at all of the wrestlers who were brought over to him at ringside. Yuki Ishida got rid of Kouki Iwasaki with the Leg Scoop Suplex while on the other side Shunma Katsumata wiped out Naomi Yoshimura with a Topé Con Hilo. The match came down to Ishida receiving one last fighting spirit from Higuchi to hit Katsumata with the Ensho for the three count.

Higuchi’s retirement ceremony took place after the match. He took commemorative photos with Harimao and then the DNA wrestlers. After that the next group of people to appear were Shuji Ishikawa, Yuji Hino and KUBITO who were tied to Higuchi as tag partners, rivals or training buddies at various times. Higuchi then received an anonymous letter from his alledged trainer. This mystery person is apparantely not in Japan at the moment but he wanted to tell Higuchi he is proud of him for becoming a top class wrestler and for leaving the ring with his body still intact. More wrestlers entered the ring to gift Higuchi with bouquets including Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dino, Antonio Honda, Yuki Ueno, Tetsuya Endo and Konosuke Takeshita.

Finally Higuchi was reunited with the other Eruption members Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai. Not only that but Hideki Okatani entered the ring holding the Eruption gown that Higuchi had gifted to him when Higuchi left the unit. Okatani returned it back to him. Sanshiro Takagi was the last person to give a bouquet and everyone got together for a big group photo. Higuchi got on the microphone and said today he has run out of his strength and he’s come to the conclusion that this is the best decision he could make. He can only express is gratitude and is grateful to everyone in DDT. He also used the Wrestle Universe broadcast to tell Yoshihiro Takayama and Masahiro Takanashi that everyone here is waiting for their return. While Higuchi will no longer live in the ring, he will continue to move forward step by step in the ring of life.

FANTÔMES DRAMATIC have gotten their hands on their first proper championship by winning the KO-D Tag Team Titles! Things went crazy from the get go when The Apex lifted up KIMIHIRO and threw him onto everybody grouped together outside the ring. Strange Love Connection found that their own teamwork was being evenly matched by Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA. The challengers separated KANON from MAO and focused all of their attacks on the former. KANON was able to kick out after taking a Piledriver followed by the Somato but HARASHIMA used the souped up Swan Dive version of his finisher to win the tag titles. Later backstage MAO said his goal with this title run was to help KANON loosen up and he thinks they accomplished that. They can rebound by going after any championship but for the moment he wants the both of them to aim for the Top 3 in this year’s King Of DDT tournament.

While Fandora were celebrating their title win, Ilusion got into the ring while wearing all of the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Title belts over his body. He claimed to be the new leader of DAMNATION T.A and because he has more title belts than Fandora, he is using his position to challenge them for the KO-D Tag Titles. He then unveiled a banner of Daisuke Sasaki to reveal that Sasaki will be his partner for the match. HARASHIMA accepted the challenge for 1st May because so that can be Sasaki’s first match back in DDT after coming home from his North American excursion. Before that takes place, Brookes said Fandora will go win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on 15th April.

It was a special match between teacher and student when Makoto Oishi found himself being challenged by Kaisei Takechi. It’s been lightly thrown around that Takechi would officially surpass Oishi as soon as he could beat him in the ring. But Takechi has yet to win a singles match so he couldn’t afford to take his mentor lightly. Oishi took his student to school with basic moves as well as a well times Dropkick to the knee as a counter for the Flying Forearm. Takechi took a page out of Higuchi’s book by using the Brain Claw to break his way out of Oishi’s Fujiyama Knee Lock. He then showed off his new Choke Slam/Rock Bottom finisher called the BREAK IT DOWN, pinning Oishi to get his first ever singles victory.

Takechi was then suddenly met by Danshoku Dieno after the match. Dieno was there to propose the two of them have a singles match some day. Takechi agreed, saying he has no reason to refuse a challenge. Hisaya Imabayashi then decided since the two of them are entering the King Of DDT tournament, this can be one of the 1st Round matches! Takechi and Dieno shook hands over the idea but Takechi then stopped Dieno from leaning in for a kiss. He made a promise to Dieno that he is going to exceed his expectations. Backstage Takechi was asked if his agency is worried about him wrestling Dieno. He said DDT has the rights to book that match but admits if the card has to change, it is because LDH did not want it to happen. Dino acknowledged that there is an unwritten no contact agreement in place with him and Takechi but Takechi is officially a DDT wrestler so it is inevitable that Danshoku Dieno would be unleashed on him eventually.

There was a little bit of confusion among Yuki Ueno’s team when Shinya Aoki decided to stop up him pinning Junta Miyawaki early in the 6-Man Tag Match. Ueno then had Jun Akiyama properly stopping him from pinning Yuki Iino by hitting him with the Knee Strike. To-y did a big dive onto everyone so Ueno could be left alone to fight Iino. But the WR was countered into a Short-Range Spear followed by a full fledged one to give Iino a big win over the KO-D Openweight Champion. Iino asked Ueno how it felt to lose for the fist time after so long because Iino will soon take the belt and prove he is the strongest in DDT! Ueno asked him if he has any dreams for the future but Iino answered he has no time to think about that. He is busy living every day to its fullest.

Okatani and Yukio Naya gave everyone a preview of their DDT Extreme Title match by brawling around ringside while Ilusion and Viento Maligno wrestled each other. Naya toughed it out by taking chair shots and being thrown into the front row. He then refused to budge when he put Ilusion in a Crab Hold and invited Okatani to try and physically break it up. MJ Paul interfered to finally make some progress but Maligno was able to get him out of the ring. Naya recovered and Choke Slammed Okatani to stop him from using the chair again. After that he pinned Ilusion with The World’s Best Back Drop.

A really important designation was on the line in Match #2. All of the DDT goofballs were gathered together to determine who is the king of DDT’s “Variety” wrestlers! However the show was already running on a tight schedule so Imabayashi wanted everyone to do their entrances all at once. Kazuki Hirata suggested they start wrestling before the entrances and then play everyone’s music as the match progresses. They all brawled down to the ring, taking Imabayashi down with them and continued fighting until Toru Owashi’s song played. He ran to the back to make his entrance and ring introduction. This would next happen to Super Sasadango Machine, then Akito, then Dieno, then Antonio Honda and finally Kazuki Hirata. Except the heavy usage of the music system blew out the venue’s amplifier during Hirata’s entrance. The wrestlers (including Saki Akai and Tetsu Inada) all formed a daisy chain connecting from Dieno over to the amplifier in order to charge it back up to full repair. Hirata got to do his entrance until Imabayashi suddenly put him in a Sleeper Hold and tapped him out! Imabayashi was declared the winner and he ordered everyone to get out so the show could continue.

As previously mentioned way up above, FANTÔMES DRAMATIC will soon be challenging for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles. Hinata Kasai will be on the challenger team and he got to fight the champions paleyouth in today’s opening bout. He had a tough go at fighting Takeshi Masada & Daichi Sato until Kazuma Sumi tagged in to even things out. Yuya Koroku found himself fighting Masami Inahata to a stalemate. paleyouth then gathered their wits about them to team up on Kasai, ultimately leading to Masada pinning Kasai with a Penalty Kick. He showed off one of the title belts to him after the match, causing Kasai to hit him with an Elbow Strike in response. Koroku then grabbed Kasai and threw him out of the ring.

After graduating from high school and becoming a college student, Yuni showed up wearing a new costume for his match against Rukiya. A big Moonsault from Yuni was blocked by Rukiya sticking his feet up. He got the win with the Proto Bomb but it took two of them to get the result after Yuni kicked out of it the first time.

The 29th Anniversary of DDT was also the first attempt by KANON to try and win the KO-D Openweight Title. For the weeks leading up to this match, KANON had been winning matches with the Lariat so Yuki Ueno tried to weaken it by hitting KANON’s hand off the corner post early on. KANON would still use the Lariat as an equalizer but then tried using his other moves to win. The Cobra Twist, Sleepy Hollow and LONELY DEZIRES wouldn’t work so he went back to the Lariat. However Ueno’s well time Dropkick to the face helped him to set up the Blackout Sleeper to squeeze the life out of KANON. While he was eventually able to get out of it, KANON was then given the WR to put him down and out.

Ueno told KANON after the match that he’s been thinking about him a lot. He thinks KANON is strong, handsome, kind and also weird. If he wants to make it to the top of DDT he cannot stay the way he is now. KANON needs to show more. Still, Ueno had fun and reminded KANON he’s been part of the DDT family even going back to when he was part of DAMNATION T.A. When he was done, Yuki Iino got into the ring feeling moved by Ueno’s speech. Iino asked for a title match because Ueno was his senior who taught him everything about pro wrestling back when Iino was a trainee. Ueno was also Iino’s first ever opponent. Ueno said he would accept the challenge on the condition that Iino would not immediately attack him after they shake hands. Iino agreed and they shook hands without incident. Ueno then told the fans he will carry the hopes of everybody as DDT moves into its 30th year.

After several failed attempts, Kazuma Sumi solved the puzzle and got to pin Daisuke Sasaki with the School Boy to win the DDT Universal Title! Sasaki targeted his leg from the get-go, including attacking the limb with a chair. A ref bump also led to the other members of DAMNATION T.A interfering on Sasaki’s behalf. Sumi fought against the odds but almost paid big by missing the Reverse 450 Splash. His luck then turned around when DAMNATION T.A interfered again only to backfire on Sasaki when Ilusion accidentally hit him with the chair. From there Sumi tried to pin Sasaki with the School Boy several times. Sasaki caught him in the Crossface Lock only for Sumi to counter it into another School Boy, this time pinning Sasaki down for the three count! Sasaki complained backstage that his “visa” for travelling the world was now taken from him and he’s trying to figure out does this mean he is being banished from the country? He only remembers being hit by a chair so that means Sumi cheated to win! Sasaki will accept his fate for now. He will go abroad, fall in love, get dumped and then come back home.

When Sumi celebrated with the title he said he is so glad he never gave up. He was able to keep going because of everyone’s support. He was then asked to nominated his first challenger for a title defence in Fukuoka on 18th April. Sumi chose Shunma Katsumata because he wants to repay him for all of his kindness ever since he debuted. However Sumi’s way of repaying Katsumata is to surpass him so he is not taking him lightly by putting this title match together. Katsumata agreed to the match and said he is going to treat Sumi as his equal. His way of repaying Sumi will be to crush him and win the Universal Title!

Kazuki Hirata was given the biggest entrance possible by having John Robinson sing him down to the ring with a live performance of “TOKYO GO!” Then after all of that hype, Konosuke Takeshita pinned Hirata in seconds after a Big Boot. A rematch immediately took place but Takeshita won again this time with an Elbow Butt that knocked Hirata out. Hirata begged for another rematch and Takeshita accepted. He even allowed Hirata to only need a 2 Count pin to beat him while Takeshita would need to pin Hirata for a 20 Count! The match began again with those conditions. This time Robinson got involved by stopping Takeshita from attacking Hirata with a chair. He also offered a pair of Hirata GO! glasses but Takeshita destroyed them. Robinson got on the mic to sing “TOKYO GO!” again in order to revive Hirata’s chances. This time Takeshita put on the glasses and started dancing only for Robinson to sneak in and Low Blow Takeshita! Hirata then got in the Miracle One Shot Cradle but Takeshita kicked out at one. Hirata’s comeback was cut off with the Wagamama knee strike but he somehow kicked out at 19! Another Miracle One Shot Cradle was done as a counter for the Raging Fire but Takeshita kicked out at one again. Possibly knowing how close of a call that was, Takeshita flipped Hirata over into the Walls Of Takeshita to win the match by submission instead of pinfall.

After the match Takeshita told Hirata his style of wrestling is one of a kind and it is time for him to become No. 1 in DDT again! He wants Hirata to show him the ultimate Dramatic Dream. Then they can have another rematch where this time Takeshita will need to pin Hirata for a 30 count! After they left the ring, DDT announced that Takeshita will return at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” in Sumo Hall on 11th August for a single match against Kaisei Takechi!

paleyouth got their first KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence in the bag after beating Harimao today. The challengers were accompanied by Kazusada Higuchi but he stood by and did not get involved. Daichi Sato stood toe to toe with Naomi Yoshimura while Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku threw both Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida away with German Suplexes. The match came down to Masada dodging Ishida’s Ensho and then hitting him with two Manburi kicks for the victory.

The champions were then greeted by FANTÔMES DRAMATIC after the match. Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda were there to get the next title shot until Honda talked about how dramatic it would be for a team with Hinata Kasai in it to win the titles from paleyouth. Masada asked if Kasai had even won a match yet? Kasai said he hasn’t but that doesn’t mean he cannot get his first win against them! He thinks the best way to celebrate his first win would be to hold championships with the rest of Fandora. All of a sudden, Brookes grabbed Bunbun and threw him into the audience! He went to retrieve him afterwards only to throw him to another part of the room! Masada swore revenge by declaring he will take all of his anger out on Kasai!

As part of the plan to get the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Minoru Suzuki, the opposing team in the Handicap Match took part in Gongitsune training before the match. Their logic is Suzuki’s biggest weakness is his eyeballs so it will be up to Honda to poke them. Hisaya Imabayashi bravely started the match with Suzuki but was left to fight by himself and was almost choked out with the Sleeper Hold. Sanshiro Takagi got into a Chop Battle with Suzuki while Danshoku Dieno stopped him with a Lip Lock. When Honda’s attempts at Gongitsune kept on failing, Suzuki got on the microphone to ask everyone how long is DDT going to keep doing this kind of pro wrestling? This is the kind of pro wrestling that makes New Japan wrestlers look down on them! He called Takagi the root of all evil but then admitted to having good memories with everyone in the ring with him. Honda finally poked him in the eye with Gongitsune during the speech but Suzuki didn’t react. He revealed he had trained his eyeballs in anticipation for this match! Honda charged up Gongitsune by using Dieno’s Hell Gate but Suzuki blocked it by stealing Imabayashi’s glasses and putting them on to act as a shield. Suzuki then fought off Toru Owashi & Super Sasadango Machine but was caught with the Stunner by Takagi. Suzuki resisted the impact at first but soon ran out of energy and collapsed to the match. Everyone piled on top of him to get the pinfall but Daisuke Kiso declared afterward that it was Imabayashi’s glasses that pinned Suzuki which means the Glasses are now the Iron Man Champion! Later at the end of the show Honda found the glasses over at the timekeeper’s table and destroyed them to be declared the new champion.

The rule for the DDT Extreme Title match was Yukinori Matsui had to wear a helmet with a button attached to it on his head. If To-y or Hideki Okatani pressed the button, they would then need to make Matsui laugh during a staring contest. Succeeding in that would allow them to use a bamboo sword as a legal weapon for one minute. To-y was eager to follow those rules while Okatani was not in the humour to mess around like that. When he kept ignoring the rule, Matsui told Okatani he wants him to make him laugh. Okatani finally obliged and made a funny face to make Matsui collapse in laughter. Okatani then whacked To-y over the head with the bamboo stick and pinned him with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster to become the new Extreme Champion.

After the match KIMIHIRO appeared at the entrance to make an introduction for Yukio Naya. When Naya got into the ring he told Okatani that “extreme” means big so he’s going to use his size to take the Extreme Title from him! Okatani called Naya arrogant but accepted his challenge for 15th April. According to him, just because Naya is big doesn’t mean he can beat Okatani to win the title. Meanwhile To-y accepted defeat and praised Okatani for being the star of the match even though he expected Okatani would remain as a supporting character.

Fandora have another championship match to look forward to soon. Brookes & HARASHIMA teamed up against Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki to determine the No. 1 Contenders for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Miyawaki almost had HARASHIMA beat with the Sunshine Clutch but Brookes broke up the pin. HARASHIMA fired himself back up to put Miyawaki on the defensive and used the Somato on Aoki to knock him off the ring apron. Meanwhile Brookes gave Miyawaki a Piledriver, rolling him into position for another Somato to give Fandora the win. Backstage HARASHIMA said they knew their opponents had moves that could beat them regardless of how much stamina they had so it was up to their own teamwork to get past any close calls and win.

It was 29th June, 2025 when Shunma Katsumata last wrestled a proper match. Now after spending the last nine months rehabilitating from a torn ACL he was back in action and wrestling his good friend MAO. They wasted no time in setting their pace and MAO even broke a few plastic boxes in the process. Katsumata went for the Totonou Splash but MAO blocked it with his knees. Katsumata tried to fire himself back up after taking the Michinoku Driver II but he was put away with a Running Palm Strike afterward. Katsumata spoke about how happy he is to be back in the ring after 265 days. As long as he gets to wrestle like this he will never complain. He might get injured again but he’ll recover and return again no matter how many times it happens! MAO said he hopes this is the last time Katsumata has a comeback match. He and Katsumata will also make sure they will never put themselves in a position where they have to forfeit a championship again.

The 3 Way Tag Match featured the DDT debut of Masami Inahata. He got to start off the match against Kumadori until Ilusion got involved trying to form alliances. When that didn’t work, MJ Paul went on the attack by targeting Makoto Oishi. Inahata got his moment by giving Paul a Brainbuster but Ilusion ruined it by giving Inahata a Low Blow afterward. In the end it was the teamwork of Viento Maligno & Kumadori that won out. Kumadori did a Fosbury Flop onto everyone outside the ring while Maligno pinned Ilusion with his finisher to win. Kumadori liked teaming with Maligno but wishes they could communicate better because Maligno doesn’t seem to understand Japanese. Oishi told Inahata that today is a new beginning for him and he will become even bigger in DDT.

Evil Uno was welcomed back into DDT for a tag match against The Apex. Uno teamed with Akito but the pair of them were overwhelmed by the power of Iino & Naya. One big Spear from Iino to Akito was all it took to end the match. Iino hasn’t been wrestling that much lately but he reminded everyone he is still training hard. Uno said he should be unhappy over the result but the last time he was in DDT he had to kiss Dieno’s butt so today was a much better experience for him.

Jun Akiyama stood before Rukiya as his big challenge in the opening contest. Rukiya tried to deal some damage outside the ring only for Akiyama to do that to him instead. Rukiya was able to rope break his way out of a Crab Hold and he also kicked out of the Exploder Suplex. Akiyama waited patiently to hit him with a Knee Strike before using another Exploder to beat him.

One of the dark matches was put together by Tokyo Joshi Pro to promote “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” taking place at Sumo Hall on 29th March. HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase went on to beat Toga, Ren Konatsu & Shion Kanzaki. Kazashiro scored the win for her team and got to advertise the show for her post match victory speech.

The other dark match was Yuni taking on Hinata Kasai. As already mentioned earlier, Kasai still has not won a match by himself yet. He tried to submit Yuni with the STF but Yuni got out of it and used the Jorge Clutch out of an Arm Drag to pin him.

The participants for King Of DDT 2026 were revealed during the show. The entries are HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno, MAO, Chris Brookes, Yukio Naya, KANON, Takeshi Masada, Hideki Okatani, To-y, Shinya Aoki, Yuya Koroku, Daichi Sato, Kaisei Takechi, Junta Miyawaki, Kazuma Sumi and Minoru Suzuki.
