The show is either happening right now or already happened while I write this but I want to get this news post out of the way so I can enjoy the rest of my Sunday.
DDT “DDT FREE -MAY-”, 11/05/2022
Shinjuku FACE
1. Saki Akai & Soma Takao Vs Maya Yukihi & Kazuki Hirata
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Toru Owashi & Akito
3. HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Yuji Hino & Toui Kojima
4. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & KANON Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Hideki Okatani & Yuki Ishida
5. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Yukio Naya
6. Special Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama Vs Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku
7. Road To Audience 2022! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda Vs MAO, Asuka & Shunma Katsumata
A world tour is on the minds of CDK and Antonio Honda wants to join in. MAO needs the help from both of his tag team partners Shunma Katsumata & Asuka to make sure it will not be done at his expense.
While Tetsuya Endo waits for his next challenger to appear, BURNING will take on itself for a friendly tag match.
BASARA “BASARA 190 ~TAKAGARI 8~”, 14/05/2022
Takashimadaira Ward Community Center
1. Lil’ Kraken Vs Banana Senga
2. Daichi Kazato Vs Yasu Urano
3. Takato Nakano Vs Tsutomu Oosugi
4. Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura Vs SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa
5. Elimination 6-Man Tag Match: Takumi Tsukamoto, Fuminori Abe & Masato Kamino Vs FUMA, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Antonio Honda
I think Masato Kamino is the one to keep an eye on after his win against Isami Kodaka last month. Out of that line up in the main event he is the one I see getting the next Union MAX Title shot.
DDT “AUDIENCE 2022”, 22/05/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Antonio Honda & Yuki Ishida
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs HARASHIMA & Akito
3. Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku Vs Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya, Ilusion & El Unicorn
4. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kazuki Hirata
5. Super Hardcore Girls Vs Prominence Full-Scale Battle ~ Special Hardcore Match: Carousel❤️Shun & Elizabeth❤️Toy Vs Suzu Suzuki & Akane Fujita
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi (c) Vs MAO & Asuka
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles Tournament – Final: Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & KANON Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani
The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles will either be won by Eruption or go back to DAMNATION T.A. The arrival of KANON to the unit along with Minoru Fujita still hanging around to interfere gives the previous champions the advantage. But Eruption aren’t in the mood to take on cheaters and Hideki Okatani in particular is looking to fight KANON.
The DDTeeeen!! pair are continuing to get big opportunities. Now Ilusion and El Unicorn are getting thrown in there with BURNING. They have the big boys Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya on their team to make it a more fair fight. Keep in mind there is a 38 year age difference between Jun Akiyama and El Unicorn.
DDT “BIG BATH REVIVAL! SHIRO NO YU ROJO PRO WRESTLING RETURNS”, 29/05/2022
Kumamoto Castle Natural Hot Spring
1. Falls Count Anywhere Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Yukio Naya Vs Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima
For the first time DDT will hold a Falls Count Anywhere match inside the Kumamoto Hot Spring with an audience watching on. Thirty people will be allowed to see the match but they will be advised to be socially distant and be barefoot because they will get wet.
DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2022”, 01/06/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Battle Royal: Shinichiro Kawamatsu (c) (w/ Nobutatsu Suzuki) Vs X
2. DDT Extreme Title: Yuki “Sexy” Iino (c) Vs AKIRA
3. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi
After a failed attempt by Pokotan to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title, DDT have booked Shinichiro Kawamatsu to defend the belt in a Battle Royal. However he has hired former MMA fighter Nobutatsu Suzuki as his bodyguard and he will be there to protect his client from all threats.
“CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022”, 12/06/2022
Saitama Super Arena
1. NOAH Vs DDT Battle ~ Special Single Match: Kenoh Vs Daisuke Sasaki
2. GHC Heavyweight Title: Go Shiozaki (c) Vs Satoshi Kojima
The full card will be revealed on 10th May. The latest drama surrounding NOAH is NOSAWA Rongai leaving the company after his contract was not renewed. NOAH’s business under his watch as booker has apparently not made the higher ups (as in those above Sanshiro Takagi) in CyberFight/CyberAgent happy. Kendo Kashin is said to be the new booker and I worry about that. He has such a bizarre sense of humour when he does his own angles and is left to his own devices. I have no idea what to expect when he has an entire company worth of storylines to deal with. There are also rumours of frustration among certain parts of the roster over who gets pushed strong (along with the better pay that comes with it) and why. I do not think this effects the “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” lineup in any way that matters. As a long term story though there can be more and even bigger fallouts to come if NOAH’s position doesn’t improve.

DDT “AUDIENCE 2022 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 06/05/2022
Shinjuku FACE
172 Fans
1. Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku defeated Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida when Koroku submitted Ishida with the Chickenwing Arm Lock (12:25).
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno defeated Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata when Iino pinned Honda with the Sexy Giga Slash (9:10).
3. Children’s Day Special! DDTeeeen!! Challenge Match I: Yuki Ueno defeated Ilusion with a Frog Splash (7:48).
4. Children’s Day Special! DDTeeeen!! Challenge Match II: Tetsuya Endo defeated El Unicorn with the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb (14:14).
5. The 46th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles Tournament – Round 1: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani defeated Akito, Hikaru Machida & Thanomsak Toba when Okatani pinned Toba with the Northern Lights Suplex (12:19).
6. The 46th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles Tournament – Round 1: Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & KANON defeated HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura when Sasaki submitted Yoshimura with La Mistica Crossface Lock (18:18).
7. CDK Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated MAO & Shunma Katsumata when Takanashi pinned Katsumata after the Everclear (18:42).
Momentum is on CDK’s side after today. They grabbed the win over ShunMao and it gave an opportunity afterward for Masahiro Takanashi to make some comments. MAO recently accused him of becoming detached from DDT because of his partial schedule with the company. Takanashi denies it, explaining some of his time away was because of injury. He wants everyone to believe that no matter what ring he is in, he is fighting for DDT. He has support from Chris Brookes and Antonio Honda backing him up too. After CDK defends the KO-D Tag Team Titles, the three of them want to go on a world tour pointing to Thailand, Singapore, Europe and India as their most wanted destinations. Backstage MAO was pleased to hear Takanashi’s response because they’ve bought seen plenty of people leave DDT over the last 6 or 7 years. MAO would be feeling more lonely if Takanashi was to leave too. It motivates MAO to defend the DDT Universal Title even more so it can truly become a universal championship.
The tournament to crown the next KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions has come down to Eruption and DAMNATION T.A reaching the final. Eruption defeated the mixture of martial arts fighters Akito, Hikaru Machida & Thanomsak Toba with Hideki Okatani getting the pin. Toba in particular was left feeling down over taking the fall but still encourages Machida to take his place as the gloved pro wrestler. DAMNATION T.A eliminated DISASTER BOX thanks to some cheating. Minoru Fujita pulled the referee out of the ring so his team could attack their opponents with a chair, leading to their victory. Eruption faced off with them after the match warning that using a chair on them won’t work. Okatani also wanted to pick a fight with KANON because of his sudden change into becoming a cheater. If KANON joined DAMNATION T.A for company then Okatani promises to beat him up and leave him on his own when he is done. Daisuke Sasaki swore to win back the titles that were stripped from DAMNATION T.A.
The DDTeeeen!! generation were given their toughest challenges yet in their young careers. They had to fight two of the top wrestlers in DDT. Despite their best efforts El Unicorn could not beat Tetsuya Endo and Ilusion lost to Yuki Ueno. Endo was left dizzy by Unicorn’s performance and encourage him to work hard so he can reach the level where Endo can hate him. Ueno could sense the energy coming from Ilusion despite not being able to see his face. The matches were a wakeup call for the teenagers but they are getting the encouragement to continue because they have so much left ahead of them. Unicorn is only 14 and already has his sights set on the KO-D Openweight Title as his long term goal. Ilusion will be turning 20 soon and wants to dominate DDTeeeen!! until he graduates into becoming an adult pro wrestler.
Pokotan and Hisaya Imabayashi both travelled to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government earlier in the day to search for Shinichiro Kawamatsu. Pokotan was going to ambush the politician and win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title with Imabayashi acting as the referee. However their plan was foiled when Kawamatsu’s bodyguard came to the rescue and knocked Pokotan out. The bodyguard was revealed to be Nobutatsu Suzuki, an accomplished MMA fighter and former ONE FC Welterweight Champion! DDT later announced that Kawamatsu will have to defend the Iron Man Title in a Battle Royal on 1st June. They were told Suzuki will be with him.
Yuki Iino has renamed his Lariat the Sexy Giga Slash. He called out Shinya Aoki after winning the match with the move.
DDT will return to the Kumamoto Castle Natural Hot Spring on 29th May for a Street Wrestling Match and this time a small audience will be allowed to attend it. Shinya Aoki & Yukio Naya Vs Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima is the advertised bout.

DDT “AUDIENCE 2022”, 22/05/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku Vs Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya, Ilusion & El Unicorn
2. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kazuki Hirata
3. Super Hardcore Girls Vs Prominence Full-Scale Battle ~ Special Hardcore Match: Carousel❤️Shun & Elizabeth❤️Toy Vs Suzu Suzuki & Akane Fujita
4. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles Tournament – Final: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi (c) Vs MAO & Asuka
A double championship conflict is forming between MAO and CDK. MAO is teaming up with Asuka to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. However it was only granted when Masahiro Takanashi got a DDT Universal Title shot in return. MAO originally considered Toui Kojima to be his partner to keep his plans within The 37KAMIINA. But he sees a lot of momentum coming out of the pairing between himself and Asuka. If he wants to get proper results he understands he should not ignore that momentum. If they can win the KO-D Tag Titles then that means three people from Miyagi will be champions in DDT (Tetsuya Endo would be the third)!
Prominence are chasing after Shunma Katsumata to get revenge for him eliminating Suzu Suzuki from the King Of Street Tournament. Katsumata wants nothing to do with them and refused to give her any rematch. However Katsumata’s relative Carousel❤️Shun has suddenly appeared wanting to fight Suzuki in his place. She claims she has spent the entire pandemic wrestling in America. She also has a friend named Elizabeth❤️Toy who is allegedly Toui Kojima’s relative. Kojima denies this, sees through “Shun’s” plan and wants nothing to do with it. Too bad for him though because the Super Hardcore Girls Shun & Toy are going to fight Suzuki & Akane Fujita in a Hardcore Tag Match!
DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2022 TOUR IN KUMAMOTO”, 29/05/2022
Kumamoto Castle Hall Civic Hall
1. Special Single Match: Saki Akai Vs Maya Yukihi
The previous plan for Saki Akai and Maya Yukihi to form an all women tag team is put on hold so they can have one more match against each other. Yukihi cannot help but think what would happen if they had a rematch of their bout at Sumo Hall so she convinced Akai to go ahead with it. Akai is adamant however this will be the only rematch.
DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2022”, 01/06/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. DDT Extreme Title: Yuki “Sexy” Iino (c) Vs AKIRA
2. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi
There have been times in recent years when Takanashi has been away from DDT. That means he has not wrestled MAO as much as he would have liked. When he returned, Takanashi was worried he was falling out of love with DDT. But thanks to CDK he is having more fun here than ever before! He hopes the Universal Title match will make people think DDT is good.
The DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi won his feud with Pheromones but before he considers the matter closed there is one more thing involving them he wants to do. He would like to see AKIRA become a champion one more time so AKIRA is going to fight Yuki Iino for the DDT Extreme Title!
DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022”, 20/08/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium
1. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) Vs X
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs X
Right now this is the next confirmed date for a KO-D Openweight Title defence. Tetsuya Endo has not heard anything about what he is doing at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” yet. He prefers his next challenger to be someone who can confidently say they can represent DDT. However he will defend the title against anyone if he has to even if it’s against a NOAH wrestler at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL”. He has been reserved over making comments about other companies on purpose for that reason. If a challenger shows up he will give them the title match, simple as that.
Dick Togo will return to DDT for the first time since May 2019. The way he is being promoted sounds like it is not the House Of Torture version of him either.

He invited Hikaru Machida to continue pro wrestling after his performances in the King Of Street Wrestling tournament. Thanomsak Toba was Machida’s “cornerman” for those matches and is inspired to pass on his knowledge over to his new wrestling protégé.

6. FRIED Yamada Festival Deep Fried Food! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shishamo Power, Unagi Power & HARASHIMA Vs Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya & Akito
Shishamo Power finally reaches the promise land. The gimmick was created to promote this show back in January but it was delayed until May. During this time his few appearances have been to feud with Yukio Naya & Akito. They hold a grudge because they want the population of Japan to become meat eaters instead of following Shishamo’s lead of having a seafood diet. Shishamo is receiving unexpected help from local Shibushi wrestler Unagi Mask to even the numbers. Now to make their match even bigger HARASHIMA and Yuji Hino are being brought into the battle.
Other guests are on the card. Shiro Koshinaka’s previous match in DDT took place last August. Tetsuya Endo was one of his opponents for his 40th Anniversary match back in 2019 so there’s a little bit of history there between them to relive. Shinya Aoki is also on the show.

DDT “MAX BUMP 2022 TOUR IN KOBE”, 24/04/2022
Kobe Art Center
139 Fans
1. Chris Brookes defeated Yuya Koroku with the Grounded Octopus Stretch (10:17).
2. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Akito & Toui Kojima when Paul pinned Kojima with the Death Valley Bomb (11:57).
3. Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Yuki Ishida when Naya pinned Ishida with a Big Boot (10:11).
4. Kobe Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Antonio Honda defeated Genki Horiguchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Iino pinned Hirata with a Lariat (0:22).
4a. Rematch: Genki Horiguchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Antonio Honda when Horiguchi pinned Honda with the Backslide From Anal (12:27).
5. DISASTER BOX Vs Eruption!: HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when Yoshimura pinned Okatani with the Throwaway Power Bomb (13:37).
6. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata when Endo pinned Katsumata with the Burning Star Press (19:59).
In response to yesterday’s quick result, Tetsuya Endo didn’t take Yuki Ueno lightly today. Instead he attacked Ueno from the bell and applied his own Sleeper Hold with the intention to put the match away early. Ueno however was able to break out of the move and the match went on its usual pace from there. BURNING picked apart The 37KAMIINA by getting rid of MAO, cutting off Ueno and then focusing all of their attacks on Shunma Katsumata from that point onward. Jun Akiyama slammed him down in position for Yusuke Okada to hit a Diving Headbutt. Endo then pinned Katsumata with the Burning Star Press after the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb. After the match Endo told Ueno it is the champion’s responsibility to have a strong sense of self worth. On 1st May he will prove that his own beliefs are stronger than Ueno’s.
Eruption got to see first hand that HARASHIMA is in good form going into their tag match on 1st May. HARASHIMA said he cannot wait to fight Kazusada Higuchi again because he is still feeling his Chops from the match. HARASHIMA is firing on all cylinders so he is very excited to team with Hikaru Sato against Eruption at Yokohama Budokan. Meanwhile Higuchi confirmed that he, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani are the trio entering the tournament for the vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. He wants to make sure that all members of Eruption are active and successful together.
Genki Horiguchi’s big appearance in DDT was spoiled when the match began and ended in the middle of his entrance before he could even make it to the ring. Horiguchi tried to take the result in his stride because he gets this is DDT and nobody in DRAGONGATE acts this way besides Kono Mama Ichikawa. But he couldn’t let it go and asked everyone to let him do his entrance again and then have a rematch. The match restarted in the middle of his entrance again but this time he made it to the ring in time to prevent another quick finish. However now he was doing a full match that meant he had to go through Pheromones. Luckily for him he pressed Antonio Honda face first into Danshoku Dieno’s butt before pinning him with his signature Backslide. Kazuki Hirata thanked him after the match and asked to dance with him. He explained that his ring skills improved after dancing with Susumu Yokosuka so dancing with Horiguchi will improve them even more! Horiguchi agreed and danced wearing the Hirata GO! glasses. Toru Owashi told him backstage that nothing that happened today is anything to be ashamed of. He promised if Horiguchi does get in trouble with his office then he will ask Sanshiro Takagi to take some of the responsibility.
In the opening match Chris Brookes sent a message to Jun Akiyama by pushing the referee Tomomitsu Matsunaga into Yuya Koroku. He then followed up by giving Koroku the Exploder Suplex before finishing him off with the Octopus Stretch. The Exploder Suplex was done on purpose but Brookes swears the referee push was an accident. Akiyama took the message and repeated his view on the matter. Treating the referee that way is dangerous and if Daisuke Kiso is in charge of the upcoming KO-D Tag Team Titles match he will risk getting injured. However if Yukinori Matsui will be the official then it’s not as much of a problem because Akiyama thinks he is tough enough to handle it.

DDT “DDT FREE -APRIL-”, 22/04/2022
Shinjuku FACE
353 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
0. Dark Match: Soma Takao defeated Yuki Ishida with the Official Endless Waltz (4:52).
1. Special Tag Match: Shishamo Power & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Akito & Yukio Naya when Power pinned Akito with La Magistral Cradle (10:36).
2. Saki Akai & Maya Yukihi defeated Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata when Yukihi pinned Hirata with the Snowstorm (10:51).
3. KANON defeated Toui Kojima with the Just Cobra Twist (6:21).
4. HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari by Disqualification when Imanari attacked the referee (12:03).
5. DAMNATION T.A Vs Eruption!: Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when Sasaki pinned Okatani with a School Boy (10:18).
6. Special Tag Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated Asuka & Yuji Hino when MAO pinned Asuka with an Oklahoma Roll (17:04).
7. Road To MEGA MAX BUMP 2022! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku by TKO when Ueno used a Sleeper Hold on Endo (5:08).
Has Tetsuya Endo been taking Yuki Ueno too lightly all this time? The main event match between BURNING and The 37KAMIINA only lasted five minutes when Ueno quickly gave Endo the WR then choked him out with a Torso Sleeper Hold. He didn’t want to insult Endo afterwards for letting his guard down even though Endo has done nothing but insult him for weeks now. However Ueno had to tell Endo he does not have the determination of a champion! On 1st May Ueno promises to win the KO-D Openweight Title so he can carry DDT on his back as a great champion while Konosuke Takeshita represents the company overseas.
The match was so short that it didn’t give CDK or Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada enough time to test each other out. Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi acted like they were tired anyway because they are double tag champions. The hard work is worth it because their dream is to have title defences in Thailand and tour across Southeast Asia. Akiyama sees the positive side of the match going short because it means he didn’t have to watch CDK cheat or get the referee physically involved again. He is concerned they could get somebody like Daisuke Kiso injured if they continue to make him do wrestling moves against his will (he thinks Yukinori Matsui could tough it out though).
After Asuka humiliated MAO at the press conference a few days ago, MAO turned the tables by pinning her in their tag match. The result happened after Yuji Hino missed a Lariat aimed for MAO and turned Asuka inside out with it by mistake. MAO then rolled up Asuka for the win. MAO complained about being pinned with the Michinoku Driver a few weeks agon and then becoming famous among stiletto fetishists when Asuka stepped on him at the press conference. Today’s result makes him very happy and he repeated his threat to beat Asuka in 3 minutes and 70 seconds when the DDT Universal Title is on the line! Shunma Katsumata later corrected him because that would make it 4 minutes and 10 seconds.
Daisuke Sasaki was in a good enough mood to give everyone a hint about DAMNATION T.A’s new member showing up on 1st May. Maybe he is in the venue today? Maybe he just left Japan to go to America? Maybe it is Hideki Okatani actually doing something to change his life instead of just dying his hair red! If you think the person next to you is your friend, he will betray you and join DAMNATION T.A on 1st May!
This time a Pheromones match ended by disqualification instead of the entire match being called off. Danshoku Dieno knows Hisaya Imabayashi was not here today so Pheromones went as lewd as they could knowing the GM was watching the show from home powerless to stop them. Yumehito Imanari filmed his camera as close to Yuki Iino’s backside as possible for example. Dieno said Imabayashi should record his tearful apology video as soon as possible because this is all his fault!
KANON’s journey through the DDT wrestlers of his generation is leaving him with some scars. Toui Kojima chopped his chest raw but a Back Drop from KANON was used to set up his signature Cobra Twist for the victory.
Maya Yukihi is fitting in really well with DDT. She poked Antonio Honda in the eyes with Gongitsune and had Kazuki Hirata beaten with a Mexican Stretch until Honda tripped and accidentally placed the Hirata GO! Glasses onto her face. Yukihi experienced the power surge of Hirata’s dance and went wild on everyone, including Saki Akai. She used the momentum to pin Hirata with the Snowstorm.
The return of Shishamo Power (looking a little bit smaller than the last time he was in the ring) had him & Naomi Yoshimura defeat the meat eating team of Akito & Yukio Naya. He was attacked by the sore losers after the match when suddenly another masked wrestler ran out and rescued him. The masked wrestler introduced himself as Unagi Mask from Shibushi City. The two joined forces and challenged the meat eaters to a match on 8th May.
The vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles will be rewarded to the winners of a 4 team tournament held throughout May. The previous champions DAMNATION T.A do not like being stripped of the belts but they are entering with their mystery wrestler taking the injured Minoru Fujita’s place. DISASTER BOX and Eruption are also entering teams. The final trio taking part are Akito, Hikaru Machida & Thanomsak Toba. Akito saw Machida’s matches in the King Of Street Wrestling tournament and thinks he has a lot of potential to do pro wrestling inside the ring. Machida doesn’t know any wrestling moves but is confident to challenge pro wrestlers with his kickboxing ability. Toba is one of the few pro wrestlers to compete wearing boxing gloves and never considered making Machida his successor until he heard the idea.
Even though Imabayashi was absent from the show he did send a statement to be read out before the matches began. He has appointed Pokotan as the Iron Man Retrieval Captain. Pokotan has been ordered to win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Shinichiro Kawamatsu!

Due to Minoru Fujita’s orbital injury taking him out of action, the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles were today declared vacant after DDT held discussions with DAMNATION T.A. There will be an announcement on tomorrow’s show about a future match to determine the new champions. Personally I think it makes the most sense for the vacant titles be put on the line at DAMNATION T.A’s next trios match on 1st May at Yokohama Budokan. The reason for that is the other former belt holders Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul are in the match anyway with the new mystery member who can easily take Fujita’s spot on the team while he is gone.

6. The 37KAMIINA Vs Eruption!: Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when Ueno pinned Okatani with the BME (10:34).
7. Tetsuya Endo 10th Anniversary Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when Endo pinned Honda with the Burning Star Press (20:16).
Here’s to ten years of Tetsuya Endo and here’s to ten years more. Some of the most important faces from his past and present gathered together for a DDT all star trios main event. Endo had Jun Akiyama and Yukio Sakaguchi on his team to take on Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda. It ended up with Endo and Honda exchanging Bionic Elbows until Endo cut him off with an Overhead Kick. Endo couldn’t put Honda away with the Torture Rack Bomb so he busted out the Burning Star Press for the victory.
Endo spoke about having his debut match a few months before Sakaguchi joined the company. He thanked HARASHIMA for supporting him since day one and said Honda was like a father raising him in Happy Motels. Takeshita was leaving ringside when Endo suddenly called out to him. He understands Takeshita going overseas is a big deal and told him not to worry because DDT will remain interesting as long as Endo is the KO-D Openweight Champion. He will prove it when he defends the title against Takeshita’s friend Yuki Ueno on 1st May. Endo also wants everyone to know that he will be the winner of course. Ueno got on the microphone and said he will beat Endo. He is confident he will have more wonderful days as KO-D Champion than Endo, Takeshita and even HARASHIMA! Takeshita told both of them that DDT in Japan is in good hands with either of them as the champion. Endo had one last thing to tell Takeshita. He still hates him. Ueno still loves him though.
Before everyone left the ring to end the show, Yusuke Okada asked Akiyama for his attention. He said he hasn’t been part of DDT long enough to know their history but he wants to do more to support the version of BURNING Endo has built. To do that Okada wants to himself and Akiyama to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles! The two of them were granted permission from Hisaya Imabayashi to make the challenge. CDK emerged at the entrance and both agreed to do the title match on 1st May. Endo encouraged his stablemates to win the belts so all eyes at the Yokohama Budokan will be on BURNING!
Ueno is building up momentum for his title shot. Today he teamed with MAO to beat Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani. MAO cheapshotted Higuchi with a Rock Punch and later got his just desserts when Higuchi grabbed him in the Brain Claw. But the match came down to a back and forth between Ueno and Okatani. The 37KAMIINA hit Shining Wizards and Enzuigiris to the Eruption members to get the upper hand. Ueno then came out on top with the BME onto Okatani.
The 37KAMIINA heat waves from Shunma Katsumata was a challenge for Yusuke Okada to overcome when the two of them faced off. Katsumata targeted his neck which slowed Okada down, even when he was on the attack with a Diving Headbutt. However Okada’s use of a Lariat and the Tricolor DDT did big damage and he was able to win with the Sudden Death. Okada repeated after the show that Endo can’t do all the work in BURNING. Akiyama agrees and also mentioned that he hates how CDK always gets the referee physically involved in their matches. He just as much wants to beat them up for that reason than to win the tag titles.
It’s been a busy weekend of tag team adventuring for Saki Akai. Yesterday she teamed with Yuki Arai in Tokyo Joshi Pro and today she teamed with Maya Yukihi in DDT. They were victorious over the team of Cherry & Miyako Matsumoto. Akai said she learned a lot about Yukihi by fighting her all the way over to Sumo Hall. She hopes to continue working with her so they can both improve each other. Yukihi was happy to wrestle with Cherry again but thought she was finally done with Matsumoto. She came in as a replacement for Bambi so Yukihi had to deal with her one more time.
Pheromones are no longer the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions which means DDT won’t have to worry about their title matches being banned from Youtube! With that said, this match still tried to cross the line as much as it could. Yuki Iino stripped down to his O-Back even as Daisuke Sasaki kept hitting him in the ass with a chair. Hisaya Imabayashi ran in ordering Pheromones to stop their usual antics and he gave Danshoku Dieno a Stunner. DAMNATION T.A then went on the attack with Sasaki and Iino brawling their way up towards the balcony while the GM chased after them. Meanwhile Dieno, Yumehito Imanari, Minoru Fujita and MJ Paul were still wrestling in the ring while this was going down. Up in the balcony, Sasaki fully stripped Iino naked and threw his O-Back over the balcony! Imabayashi jumped onto Iino to stop him from fully exposing himself to the audience. Back in the ring, Fujita caught Dieno in the Samson Clutch to score the win out of nowhere. After the match Sasaki said that a new member will join DAMNATION T.A on 1st May. He warned the roster that the person standing next to them may be a traitor so everyone should be looking forward to the reveal. However if a reporter wants to go drinking with Sasaki and pay his tab, he will give them a hint in return.
CDK couldn’t beat Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya in a fight because of the size difference, so they had to outsmart them to keep the KO-D Tag Titles. Naya put Masahiro Takanashi in the Cobra Twist when outside the ring, Chris Brookes rang the bell and tricked Naya into thinking he won. While Naya and the referee were distracted, Takanashi grabbed one of the Asia Dream Tag Team Title belts and nailed Naya in the head with it. Hino broke the pin to keep the match going but CDK then used a combined Crucifix and Jackknife Pin on Naya to get the three count and steal a title defence. Takanashi praised Brookes for his strange plan working out but knows they won’t be able to get away with it again. They’re relieved they won’t have to defend the titles against Hino & Naya again but the challengers think otherwise.
The DDT debut of KANON saw him defeat Yuki Ishida. KANON hit Soccer Ball Kicks, Backbreakers and K Spike chops. Ishida fought back with a Brainbuster and his Sumo Chop Rush. KANON recovered from that and put Ishida in the Cobra Twist to make him submit. He praised Ishida for having a strong core because of his sumo background. KANON also said he is looking forward to doing more with DDT in the future.
One of the dark matches went out of control thanks to the addition of Lucha tag rules. Kazuki Hirata ended up knocking out both Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura so he put himself in a 3-on-1 disadvantage. His solution was to give Hirata GO! glasses to all of his opponents. Akito, Soma Takao & Gota Ihashi danced with him and then attacked. However Ihashi missed a Moonsault and Hirata rolled him up with La Magistral to escape with the win.
Two young rivalries met in the very first match of the day. El Unicorn and Ilusion continue their back and forth feud. Toui Kojima hit a setback in his rivalry against Yuya Koroku. Kojima had finally beaten him by using a Triangle Choke so he went for it again today. This time though Koroku defended himself and rolled over on top of Kojima to pin him for the three count.
The result caused Kojima to come out during the show opening announcements where Shinya Aoki was already in the ring. Kojima asked him for a singles match on 1st May so Kojima can get stronger and catch up to the rest of The 37KAMIINA. Aoki accepted and wondered if Kojima wasn’t taking things seriously until now.
The full card for the Yokohama Budokan show on 1st May was revealed at the end of the show. One of the new matches is a KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles defence. Also HARASHIMA will team with Hikaru Sato to take on Higuchi & Sakaguchi from Eruption.

Arisuzu have a brand new tag team name. Suzume is the Daisy and Arisu Endo is the Monkey so together they are now called Daisy Monkey!
Saki Akai & Yuki Arai got together during the week for a special training session. First they announced their tag team name. They are called Reiwa AA Cannon. The AA stands for two things. They have the same blood type (A) and they both won the same Award for Best Newcomer from Tokyo Sports. Or maybe it’s just both of their surnames beginning with A and somebody wanted to make a BI Cannon reference. Akai wanted to teach Arai the most important thing in pro wrestling… The ring entrance! It is what shows off the individuality of a pro wrestler the most and walking out there looking like a bore will make fans lose interest. Arai agrees because it was the entrances that caught her eye when she saw pro wrestling for the first time. Akai taught Arai to copy her entrance and in returned then tried to replicate Arai’s entrance.

7. Tetsuya Endo 10th Anniversary Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
10 years of Tetsuya Endo will be celebrated in the main event. Looking back on his debut I’m surprised Akito isn’t part of his match because Endo submitted to him back then. Keisuke Ishii and the wrestler now known as Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi were the other two people in that match but I can understand why DDT didn’t bring them over. How about this for trivia? Endo’s original tag partner for his debut was supposed to be another DDT rookie Takashi Dai. Unfortunately he suffered a career ending injury in his own debut match two weeks earlier so Ishii replaced him.
After this show Konosuke Takeshita will take part in an Youtube autograph signing and then that’s it for him in DDT for the time being. Don’t be surprised if he shows up somewhere in AEW next week because it sounds like the beginning of his excursion is imminent.
It’s unusual to see two KO-D championship matches placed so early on the card back to back. I don’t know what the schedules outside of DDT are like for the wrestlers involved so I can’t say for certain if it is because somebody is working somewhere else later that day. I don’t think it is for the partial live broadcast on Youtube either because it’s just the two dark matches that are being advertised for that.

DDT is brought back into the world of ONLY WE and the group’s feud with PERON GRANDES. Joining the two sides is HARASHIMA teaming with ONLY WE and Daisuke Sasaki teaming with PERON GRANDES.
A nice little reunion for The Iyasareru is happening here. Or maybe not given who their opponents are. I can’t tell if DDT switching the naming positions of Yuki Iino & Danshoku Dieno on upcoming cards is an intentional hint of something coming up on the horizon or just a sign that Iino has become the centerpiece of Pheromones. Iino has been the more successful of the two in-ring recently but Dieno still looks like he is calling the shots.

6. Kobe Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Genki Horiguchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Antonio Honda
The addition of Genki Horiguchi to the show means Kazuki Hirata gets to take another step on his journey through the Dragon System. There’s an alternate universe where Hirata never left Kobe and instead he made it onto the DRAGONGATE roster. Who knows where his wrestling career would have taken him from there? I bet he and Horiguchi would have turned face and heel on each other at least twice both ways.

7. After Judgement 2022 Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & Toui Kojima defeated Tetsuya Endo, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku when Kojima submitted Koroku with a Triangle Choke (22:11).
The 26th year of DDT has gone off to a hot start with plenty to talk about. The main event was the latest tag team battle between The 37KAMIINA and BURNING but this time with a brand new result. For months Toui Kojima has fought to try and beat his classmate Yuya Koroku. Every step of the way was met with failure until today when Kojima finally got his direct win over Koroku! The result didn’t look like it would happen when Koroku hit the Moonsault Press and then applied the Chickenwing Armlock he’s been using to beat his rival. But Kojima used the lessons he learned from Shinya Aoki to counter the move into a Triangle Choke for the tap out. He lived up to his promise of crying tears of joy over finally beating Koroku. Kojima admitted he is still weak and is not ready to be compared to the rest of his stable. He wants to keep training so he can becomes stronger.
Yuki Ueno threw in his support for Kojima along with the rest of The 37KAMIINA. He is so inspired by everyone in the unit doing their best to leave a mark on the world that he wants to do the same in DDT. So he is challenging Tetsuya Endo for the KO-D Openweight Title on 1st May! Endo said if Ueno is confident enough to beat the man who just became champion at Sumo Hall and carry the belt with 25 years of history attached to it then he will accept the challenge. Ueno told him he isn’t just fighting for that but also for the future of DDT. He wants to defeat Endo and lead the company as champion.
As ridiculous as the O-Back Ladder Match was there was a surprising amount of emotion to it. Shunma Katsumata walked out wearing an ALL OUT shirt hoping to remind Yuki Iino of their time together in that group. Iino briefly remembered and did a Haka pose with his old friend but in a flash that memory went away and they had to fight. Katsumata climbed the ladder and grabbed the O-Back but the winner had to wear it. He covered his waist in a towel to put it on but Iino attacked him with Danshoku Dieno & Yumehito Imanari’s help. Together they performed “Pheromone Magic” on Katsumata and he suddenly found out he was somehow now wearing nothing underneath his towel! He gave up to avoid further shame, resulting in a successful DDT Extreme Title defence for Iino. Dieno told Katsumata he previously agreed to wear the O-Back by itself if he lost. He is a man of his word so he did just that and shook Iino’s hand. Iino then blindsided him with a Brainbuster to humiliate him even more. Dieno asked who would want to challenge Iino for the Extreme Title after seeing this?
Sometime before the show, a desperate Michael Nakazawa went searching around town for MAO so he could ambush him. He was lured into a counter attack where MAO ran Nakazawa over with a van! Nakazawa did show up to the match wrapped head to toe in bandages. He looked like a physical wreck and couldn’t even stand up by himself. MAO decided to take advantage but it turned out to be a trick! The real Nakazawa ran down to the ring and attacked MAO with a crutch. He then used his signature tricks like rubbing his body in slippery lotion and applying the Ultimate Venom AEW Arm. However MAO fought back and pinned Nakazawa with the Super Michinoku Driver II for the win.
MAO called the DDT Universal Title defence an easy win. He wants to use his champion status to wrestle overseas so asked for his next challenger to be somebody with presence. Out walked Asuka! She just returned from wrestling in Italy and has a UK tour lined up this summer so she matches all of MAO’s requests. Asuka said the “VENY’s” of the world deserve that title. MAO accepted the challenge and wants it to be at the Yokohama Budokan on 1st May.
Kazuki Hirata knew just like everyone else that he has no chance of beating Jun Akiyama in a fair fight. He was moments away from losing easily to the Exploder Suplex when he grabbed the microphone and called a stop to the match. Hirata can’t win a wrestling match but he can beat Akiyama in a quiz! Suddenly the match turned into a trivia contest with chairs in the ring to sit on and a toy hammer to hit each other with when somebody got a question wrong. 1st Question: What tragedy happened to Hirata before a show in Yokohama Raidant Hall? Hirata answered he was bit by a Chihuahua. Correct! Question 2: Who was Hirata’s opponent in a fantasy card Keisuke Ishii once put together? Hirata answered Yuji Okabayashi. Correct! Question 3: On 4th January, 2002 the name of the defending GHC Heavyweight Champion is… Akiyama cut off the question to answer it was himself. That wasn’t the question thought so he was incorrect! The rest of the question asked who was the child who wanted to skip school to go see the match and got angry at his mother? Hirata answered it was himself. Correct! Hirata defeated Akiyama in the Quiz Showdown! Hirata hit Akiyama with the toy hammer to celebrate and Akiyama no sold it. DDT then announced that Akiyama’s 30th Anniversary show will be held in Korakuen Hall on 18th September. Akiyama thinks he will have a proper match against Hirata on that show.
The new KO-D Tag Team Champions are on shaky ground after finding out just how strong their opponents are. Yukio Naya showed off the power he has gained from teaming with Yuji Hino and made Masahiro Takanashi submit for the victory. Chris Brookes was also left in agony from Hino’s chops. Naya told the fans to look forward to them taking the Tag Titles from CDK.
A lesson we learned today is nobody messes with Hisaya Imabayashi except Pheromones! Their match against DAMNATION T.A was going the usual lewd direction with Imabayashi threatening to cancel the match. This time however Daisuke Sasaki came to defend Imabayashi from Pheromones, only to turn on him and attack all of them with a chair. Minoru Fujita & MJ Paul joined in on the beatdown and had to be disqualified. Sasaki complained that Imabayashi doesn’t have the right to cancel their matches. He threatened they will attack him again if he tries to stop the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match on 10th April. They will even attack his wife and kids to prove their point! Dieno was in tears over what happened to Imabayashi. He is an innocent person in that doesn’t deserve to get attacked this way. Pheromones claim they are all about justice and swore to get revenge on DAMNATION T.A!
A full force Eruption opened up the main show, beating a foursome made up of DISASTER BOX wrestlers and the rookie Yuki Ishida. Those four were all called “The Pig Brothers” by Hideki Okatani. He even scored the win in the end and told the fans to remember the Red Fight Spirit of Eruption!
On the pre-show Antonio Honda successfully defended the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title against Pokotan. Honda summoned the power of Triple H to aid him on his way to victory. After the match Shinichiro Kawamatsu from the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly was supposed to hand the belt over to Honda but Pokotan got into another fight with Honda. The two of them knocked each other out and it dawned on Kawamatsu that he could pin Honda. He did so after encouragement from the fans and became the new Iron Man Champion! Kawamatsu joked if this is really what the DDT fans wanted to see and he promised to defend the title for all 24 hours as hard as he can.
Away from all the matches, the biggest news to come from the show was Konosuke Takeshita announcing he is going on an indefinite expedition to the United States where he will wrestle for AEW! His final match in DDT before he leaves will be on 10th April. He is ready to take on the challenge of the world and begin Chapter 2 of his career. He also promised to do his best in DDT before he goes away and hopes when he comes back Ueno will be the KO-D Champion so he can challenge him.
Endo was presented with the brand new redesigned KO-D Openweight Title belt from Sanshiro Takagi at the start of the show. Endo said it is more brilliant looking than the previous belt he is happy to be the one to build up its history.
The next Korakuen Hall show on 10th April will feature Saki Akai & Maya Yukihi against Bambi & Cherry to celebrate DDT’s history with women’s wrestling. Akai is honored to face the two women from DDT’s past and also hopes to create something new with Yukihi.
A mystery wrestler who would like to wrestle in DDT is being promoted to appear at Yokohama Radiant Hall on 1st April.
