9. KO-D Openweight Title: Kota Ibushi defeated HARASHIMA (c) with the Phoenix Plex (22:44).
*HARASHIMA fails in V8. Kota Ibushi becomes the 49th KO-D Openweight Champion!

DDT made it a day to remember in Saitama Super Arena. Every championship changed hands during the show. That means HARASHIMA has finally been toppled off the mountain. Much like their last meeting for the KO-D Openweight Title six years ago, Kota Ibushi beat HARASHIMA with the Phoenix Plex to become champion. At one point Ibushi dove off of the entrance stage onto HARASHIMA. He later hit HARASHIMA with his own finishing move the Somato! But HARASHIMA kicked out of almost everything Ibushi threw at him, even the Last Ride Power Bomb and Phoenix Splash. The champion fought back with a Headbutt, a Buzzsaw Kick and the Swan Dive Somato but Ibushi caught him and hit the rarely used Phoenix Plex for the victory! The new champion celebrated with a sparkler as the show drew to a close. Ibushi’s first defence is set for Kasukabe Hall on 21st March.

What does it take to demolish Happy Motels? Turns out Strong BJ does the trick. The KO-D Tag Team Champions were taken to the limit and then some. Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi were just too much for Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo. The Sky Twister Press from Endo to Okabayashi got a nearfall. Strong BJ recovered and focused on Takeshita, smashing him with Lariats. Takeshita was down for good after the Golem Splash. Amon Tsurumi admitted being frustrated by the result when he congratulated the new champions. He told them their first title defence will be on 29th March. Their opponents? Danshoku Dino & Super Sasadango Machine!

Speaking of Super Sasadango Machine, he had a big time entrance coming out in a white costume to the song “Lonely Days”. He was ready for his big moment… a PowerPoint presentation. Today’s topic was “How To Eliminate The Disparity Problem In The World Of Professional Wrestling”. When he was done Kazushi Sakuraba was there waiting for him. Sasadango tried to beat him with a banana peel. It didn’t work. He tried to beat him with the Lehman Shock three times. It didn’t work. A montage with narration took place during the match. That also didn’t work. Sasadango just couldn’t figure Sakuraba out and that became his downfall.

Although Michael Nakazawa has already moved to Singapore he had one problem he needed to settle back in Japan. He wants his wife to come join him in his new life. So he got singer Shigeru Matsuzaki to be in his corner for the match against Danshoku Dino. Matsuzaki stopped Nakazawa from using a chair late in the match. After all, cheating to win isn’t going to help him get his wife back. Dino thanked Matsuzaki by kissing him. Dino later gave Nakazawa a goodbye kiss before ending the match with the Danshoku Destroyer. Nakazawa was dispondent after the match. He asked Dino what is a pro wrestler because he doesn’t know. Dino admitted he doesn’t know for sure but a pro wrestler should love wrestling. Nakazawa said he loves wrestling but he still does not have his wife with him so he will be going back to Singapore alone. Matsuzaki returned and began to sing. All of a sudden Michael’s wife Keiko appeared wearing a wedding dress! The two embraced. All together now. Awwwwwww!

Unfortunately the stinger at the end of the show was Keiko telling Michael backstage that she still didn’t want to go to Singapore. She then ditched him. All together now. Awwwwwww…

The Super TLC match had Sanshiro Takagi immediately thrown into a castle of chairs. He was also put through a table by Shigehiro Irie’s Flying Sausage. Shuji Ishikawa wiped out Keisuke Ishii with the Fire Thunder through a table. MIKAMI made good use of the largest ladder but was also one of its victims. Jun Kasai put Suguru Miyatake through a bunch of tables with the Pearl Harbour Splash. This left Takagi as the last man standing and he was able to grab down the bag to win. The prize Crazy & President won is a Street Wrestling match scheduled for 15th April in Izuguranparu Park. It will be the largest outdoor area DDT has ever wrestled in. With this victory Sanshiro Takagi got to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his wrestling debut early. His 20th anniversary is tomorrow.

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title Match quickly turned into an arena wide brawl. Shuten-dōji were prepared for the champions’ shenanigans and isolated Gorgeous Matsuno from the Brahman Brothers. KUDO hit the Diving Double Knee Drop and Yukio Sakaguchi then submitted Matsuno with the Cobra Clutch.

The rules for the DDT Extreme Title match changed every 90 seconds. It started off normal, then grappling was prohibited, then it became a 2 Count match, then it was Give Up Only and finally a No Rope Escape when the match reached its finish. Akito got a taste of his own medicine when Shiori Asahi used the ropes to add leverage to his pin. Asahi is now your “X = treme” Champion!

The first Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title change of the day took place before the Battle Royal even took place. Champion Aja Kong was ambushed and pinned in the hallway by the cameraman following her down to ringside! The cameraman fled down to the ring and found himself face to face with Yasu Urano to start the Battle Royal. He actually did alright, throwing Urano across the ring with a Spinning Headscissors. But his bizarre fairytale was cut short when Shunma Katsumata eliminated him to win the belt. The title was then passed around from Katsumata to Hikaru Sato to Soma Takao. Zeus was a force to be reckoned with and he eliminated 4 men on route to winning the title. Tomomitsu Matsunaga and Makoto Oishi were able to eliminate Zeus but down came Aja Kong to get her belt back. The match came down to Kong and Saki Akai. The model tried a Diving Body Press but Kong responded with a Back Drop and the Uraken. Akai somehow kicked out but was then put away with the Brainbuster. Kong then got revenge on the cameraman by knocking him out with the Uraken on the stage.

The HIRATA GO! glasses are an unexpected hit at the merch stands and were sold out. Hirata kept a few spare ones to give to Akebono and Toru Owashi but they rejected them. Hirata then tried to dance but Antonio Honda attacked him every time. Team captains Akebono and Yoshihiko went at it as promised while everyone else battled and danced over Hirata’s glasses. While Honda was too busy dancing to realise what was going on behind him, Akebono and his team triple teamed him and then squashed him for the victory. Hirata got his glasses back and finally got to dance for everyone. Afterwards Owashi wondered if the team should continue under the name AT Hide. Meanwhile the Great Kojika was amazed at how large Akebono is in person.

Kazusada Higuchi continues his winning streak by submitting Kota Umeda with the Canadian Backbreaker in the DNA dark match. Higuchi hopes when the next big show comes around he will be on the main card.

Gota Ihashi has the unfortunate pleasure of becoming the first ever King Of Dark Champion. He is now banished to doing the dark matches until he wins one. Ihashi tried to convince himself it’s a good thing, even calling it the KO-D Title because it has the same initials as DDT’s top belt. He eventually accepted his fate and said no matter what he will win his next dark match and pass the title over to the loser.

DDT will run Sumo Hall twice in 2016. The shows will be on 21st March and 28th August. The Beer Garden series in Shin-kiba 1st RING returns for 9 shows from 1st August to 9th August. This year’s DDT General Election will include wrestlers from Ganbare☆Wrestling and Tokyo Joshi Pro.

Complete Card For “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”

January 5, 2015

DDT “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”, 15/02/2015
Saitama Super Arena – Community Arena

1. Love Of Memory: Danshoku Dino Vs Michael Nakazawa (w/ Shigeru Matsuzaki)
2. Special Single Match: Super Sasadango Machine Vs X
3. Akebono Army Vs Yoshihiko Army: Akebono, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yoshihiko, Antonio Honda & Great Kojika
4. Super TLC Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Suguru Miytake Vs MIKAMI & Shuji Ishikawa
5. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Battle Royal: Aja Kong (c) Vs Yasu Urano Vs Soma Takao Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Gota Ihashi Vs Hoshitango Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Saki Akai Vs Bernard Ackah Vs Yuto Aijima Vs DJ Nira Vs Makoto Oishi
6. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs X
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Gorgeous Matsuno, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi
8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi
9. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Kota Ibushi

Kota Ibushi is currently reeling from yesterday’s defeat to Shinsuke Nakamura in the Tokyo Dome. He’ll have another chance at claiming some gold back in DDT when he faces the most dominant KO-D Openweight Champion in the company’s history, HARASHIMA.

Happy Motels face their greatest challenge yet in the form of Big Japan’s literal strongest duo, Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi. The young champions have already gone through many of DDT’s regular teams but none of them are on the level of Strong BJ.

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles have gone through its most craziest matches ever since it went around the waists of Gorgeous Matsuno & the Brahman Brothers. Their title defences have turned into hardcore brawls with suitcases, bowling balls, a pig head and black ink all involved. So pretty much your regular Brahman Brothers match. Hardcore drinkers Shuten-dōji are the next team stepping into the ring with them.

The loser of the 25th January DDT Extreme Title match between Akito and Makoto Oishi will be in the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title Battle Royal. The winner will defend the Extreme Title against someone to be determined. Since most if not all of the active roster is booked already I think the challenger will come from outside of DDT. Maybe a Union guy now that I think about it.

Speaking of the Iron Man Title, Aja Kong now possesses the belt and has challenged all comers to try and take it off her. Among them is the previous champion Saki Akai who will surely love to get revenge for Kong spoiling her big moment. Bernard Ackah will also be there after the failed bodyguard and second Super Sasadango Machine admitted he wanted to do pro wrestling.

The Super TLC Match involves 10 Tables, 3 Ladders (1x3m high, 2x2m high) and 100 Chairs. Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai reform their Crazy & President team to face members of Team Dream Futures, Golden☆Storm Riders and the veteran team pairing of MIKAMI & Shuji Ishikawa.

The teams led by Akebono and Yoshihiko have been chosen. Akebono has T2Hide members Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata on his side. This means we could see Akebono be forced to do the Magnum TOKYO dance with Hirata! Yoshihiko has recruited Antonio Honda and The Great Kojika. At 72 years old Kojika is still going at it in the ring.

Super Sasadango Machine faces a mystery opponent. Heck if I know who it is. What’s worse is Machine may not be able to figure out how to prepare for the match. How can he set up a PowerPoint presentation if he doesn’t know what he is up against?

Michael Nakazawa’s final match in DDT, at least for now, is against a fully recovered Danshoku Dino. Nakazawa is moving to Singapore to focus on his career as a fitness instructor. Dino is returning from a hernia.

Danshoku Dino Army

Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita, Tetsuya Endo, Gorgeous Matsuno, Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei, Shuji Ishikawa, Shigehiro Irie, Soma Takao, Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata, MIKAMI, Yoshihiko, Hoshitango, Makoto Oishi and Kota Umeda

Michael Nakazawa Army

Michael Nakazawa, HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano, Akito, Kota Ibushi, Daisuke Sasaki, Suguru Miyatake, KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Bernard Ackah, Super Sasadango Machine, Saki Akai, DJ Nira, Shunma Katsumata and Gota Ihashi

DDT’s first show of 2015 featured the annual New Year Team Challenge in front of a packed Korakuen Hall (all tickets for the event were priced at 2,000 yen which I think is around €14/$17/£11). Danshoku Dino and Michael Nakazawa each captained a team and points were on offer for every match and challenge. Wins were worth 30 points and draws were worth 10 points. Keisuke Ishii was ill with a fever so Shuji Ishikawa took his spot in the Dino Army.

The main event was a five match series. Nakazawa’s team racked the most wins and at the end it looked like his team won the challenge. However as is tradition at this show an impromptu 34-Man Tag Team match took place with 500 points on the line. Everywhere you looked in the arena, DDT wrestlers were fighting each other. Kazuki Hirata stayed inside the ring to dance while chaos was happening around him. Nakazawa was in danger of losing when Kota Ibushi threw him like a javelin into the turnbuckles. But Nakazawa dodged the Diving Fist Drop from Antonio Honda and gave him the Ultimate Venom Arm for the ultimate victory. Nakazawa’s prize for winning the competition was 200 tickets for “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”. He was told to sell them all when he moves to Singapore. Dino then invited Nakazawa’s wife Keiko Nakazawa into the ring. Michael said they will go to Singapore together but Keiko said she wouldn’t. She wished him luck and left the ring.

The new but probably not improved Golden☆Storm Riders failed to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles from Gorgeous Matsuno & the Brahman Brothers. Matsuno and Ibushi brawled around Korakuen Hall and at one point Ibushi tried to throw Matsuno over the balcony! The rookie Suguru Miyatake took the pin when he was accidentaly blinded with black ink spat out by his partners. Shuten-dōji were announced as the next challengers and will get their title shot at Saitama Super Arena.

Super Sasadango Machine brought along a doppelgänger for his tag match against Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi. Takagi unmasked Machine No. 2 and it turned out to be Bernard Ackah, as if it wasn’t obvious before. After the match Takagi asked Ackah why is he still hanging around? Does he want to be a pro wrestler? Ackah cried and admitted he wants to do pro wrestling. Takagi told Ackah he will get to wrestle at Saitama Super Arena.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changed hands when Saki Akai pinned Yoshihiko in a 6-Man Tag match. Yoshihiko gave Akai the Hurricanrana for what looked to be the finish but Akai rolled him over with a Sunset Flip for the surprise three count. Akai’s celebration was cut short when Aja Kong attacked her from out of nowhere and hit the Brainbuster to win the title. Kong mocked Akai for winning the Best Rookie Award from Tokyo Sports. She then said she will be at Saitama Super Arena with the belt and will wait for anyone to come and get it.

Soma Takao came out to a new original entrance song.

Three extra challenges took place away from the ring. First, Dino and Nakazawa had a Karaoke Challenge. Nakazawa sang “Babe” and Dino sang “Scorpio Woman”. Dino scored more points but Amon Tsurumi decided to take part and sang “Broken Over The Radio”. His performance was so bad Dino forfeited the game. Second challenge was a quiz between Shigehiro Irie and Saki Akai. Both only got one answer correct so it was a draw. The third challenge was a penalty shootout between Happy Motels and Smile Squash. Happy Motels won it two goals to one.

DDT’s second Korakuen show in January takes place on the 25th. Akito will defend the DDT Extreme Title against Makoto Oishi. The main event will be a special preview of the two big matches taking place at “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”. The KO-D Openweight and Tag Team Champions will team together against their challengers. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo Vs Kota Ibushi, Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuji Okabayashi!

The next Infomercial Match will take place on 18th January and will promote Pu Joshi Hyaku Kei, a book featuring illustrations of schoolgirls performing wrestling moves. Since the cover shows the Cactus Flower in action, Makoto Oishi & Shiori Asahi will take part in the match. Their opponents will be announced soon. Oh and everybody in the match has to wrestle in schoolgirl costumes.

Sanshiro Takagi announced that this year was DDT’s 10th year of promoting shows in Hakata. Takagi said next year he wants to have big matches and fill up the entire Hakata Star Lane building.

Happy Motel and Shuten-dōji traded wins in the final two matches. Tetsuya Endo & Antonio Honda defeated KUDO & Masa Takanashi in the semi-main event. The main event was a 4 Way Match that ended when Yukio Sakaguchi pinned Konosuke Takeshita. HARASHIMA almost won the match but his Somato attempt was stopped dead by Shigehiro Irie’s Beast Bomber.

The next match in Michael Nakazawa’s farewell tour was a Falls Count Anywhere match against Kota Ibushi, which meant Nakazawa was fucked no matter what he did. They fought around the arena and Nakazawa was later taped to a flat trolley and rolled acrossed the arena. After Ibushi beat him with the Sit Down Last Ride he requested that he and Nakazawa have a street wrestling match. Nakazawa said it sounds good and they should do it in Singapore, the Philippines or even Vietnam.

Mind games were in full effect in the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. Kazuki Hirata entered the ring without his Magnum mask and costume. Out came Gorgeous Matsuno wearing the mask and costume. He even did a little Magnum dance too! The Brahman Brothers brought in their foreign objects which this time included ramen noodles. Matsuno later brought in an Ultimo Dragon mask and pinned Hirata when he blocked Hirata’s La Magistral Cradle. Matsuno afterwards said the belts will remain with him and the Brahmans as they head towards the Saitama Super Arena show.

The mysterious Fish-Man took part in the Infomercial Match against Super Sasadango Machine and Yasu Urano to promote his “Fish-Man Hakata Fireside“ tavern. But after being defeated by Sasadango he was unmasked and revealed to be Batten Tamagawa!

November 30, 2014

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2014”, 30/11/2014
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
2,200 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. Dark Match – DNA 6-Man Tag Team Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Ryota Nakatsu & Koju Iwasaki defeated Tomoya Kawamura, Shun Miyatake & Kota Umeda when Higuchi submitted Umeda with the Canadian Backbreaker (9:03).

3. “Wella Professionals” Presents Hair Makeover Match: Yasu Urano & Akito defeated Kota Ibushi & Shunma Katsumata when Akito pinned Katsumata with the Kinniku Big Move (10:10).
4. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Gorgeous Matsuno, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata (c) when Matsuno pinned Hirata with a Cradle (13:34).
*T2Hide fail in V2. Gorgeous Matsuno, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei become the 15th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions!
5. Dark Match Of Truth – Special Singles Match: Shigehiro Irie defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Beast Bomber (15:12).
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo (c) defeated Makoto Oishi & X = Shiroi Asahi when Endo pinned Oishi with the Sky Twister Press (13:55).
*V3 for Happy Motels.
7. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) defeated Soma Takao with the Somato (20:58).
*V6 for HARASHIMA.

Soma Takao came close but not close enough to take the KO-D Openweight Title away from HARASHIMA. After winning a Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament to become the No. 1 Contender, Takao had trouble in the following weeks proving that he deserved the title shot. However he had full support from the fans when he was showered in red tape during his ring entrance. Unfortunately for him, HARASHIMA was just too good and he put away the plucky challenger with the Somato. HARASHIMA told Takao that it was luck that got him here but he was still talented and strong. But HARASHIMA was stronger. The champion was suddenly interrupted by Shigehiro Irie who came to his friend’s aid. Irie told HARASHIMA he should be ashamed and that he hated seeing HARASHIMA beat his friends Takao and Keisuke Ishii. So Irie will challenge for the title next! Irie said he loves Takao and Ishii. He will fight for the three of them. HARASHIMA said he loves things too, like Akito and Yasu Urano. He was left confused when the audience laughed. The match was made for DDT’s return to Korakuen Hall on 23rd December.

Despite all of the hype and building up of Shiori Asahi as Makoto Oishi’s surprise tag team partner, the two of them just couldn’t win the KO-D Tag Team Titles from Happy Motel. The champions were able to avoid the Cactus Flower and Tetsuya Endo pinned Oishi with the Sky Twister Press. Amon Tsurumi said Happy Motel’s next defence will be against the current strongest challengers in DDT. Out came KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi. KUDO told the champs he will snatch the future away from them. Endo told KUDO they’re no longer the future, they are the now of DDT!

Yukinori Matsui got involved with the Shigehiro Irie Vs Daisuke Sasaki match he officiated. At one point he Suplexed Sasaki into Irie! Later on Irie pinned Sasaki with the Beast Bomber.

LiLiCo appeared in DDT for the first time since winning the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2014”. The singer explained that ever since she won the title she has been scared of being attacked by someone looking to take the belt away from her. So she hired martial artist Bernard Ackah to be her bodyguard. Ackah was in the ring with her wearing a suit and boxing gloves. Kazuki Hirata attempted a sneak attack but was easily dispatched of by Ackah. Sanshiro Takagi picked up an unconscious Hirata and used him like a puppet. “Hirata” challenged Ackah to a match at Kasukabe Hall on 13th December. LiLiCo accepted and said with Ackah as her bodyguard, she will be an eternal champion!

Two matches were announced for “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015” next February. Danshoku Dino will take on Michael Nakazawa with special guest singer Shigeru Matsuzaki in Nakazawa’s corner. There will also be a 6-Man Tag Team match between Akebono Army and Yoshihiko Army. Yes, Akebono and Yoshihiko will wrestle each other in Saitama Super Arena! Their partners are to be announced. Don’t worry, Shiroi Asahi will not be one of them.

The clump of hot potatoes that are the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles switched hands again. T2Hide were already at a disadvantage when Sanshiro Takagi was forced to compete with a fractured right heel. But they just weren’t prepared for the weird combination of Gorgeous Matsuno and the Brahman Brothers. A suit case, bowling ball and stop sign were all used in the match by the Brahmans as well as their blinding black mist. The match fell down to Kazuki Hirata and Gorgeous Matsuno and Matsuno surprisingly scored the pin after they traded nearfalls. A furious Hirata demanded a rematch against the “old man” but he was dragged away by Takagi and Toru Owashi. Matsuno said that today was the result of all the hard work he put in the last three years of his life.

Both Kota Ibushi and Michael Nakazawa worked double duty today. First they wrestled their matches in DDT. Nakazawa wrestled in the opening 8-Man Tag Match while Ibushi was part something a little bit different. The show today was sponsored by Wella Professionals hair and beauty products. Ibushi & Shunma Katsumata took on Yasu Urano & Akito and all four were given hair makeovers before the match. Their stylists appeared at ringside to manage and maintain the hairstyles whenever somebody tagged out. Akito and Urano won the match and were given a year’s supply of Wella hair products as a prize. Ibushi later announced that with Kenny Omega moving to New Japan, the Golden☆Storm Riders are now looking for a new member and will hold auditions.

When that was done Ibushi and Nakazawa travelled over to Sumo Hall where they had a shoot boxing exhibition bout against each other. The bout more resembled a pro wrestling match as the two Suplexed and Lariated each other. Ibushi even did a Moonsault out of the ring and then won by knockout with a Power Bomb.

Throughout 2014 Tomomitsu Matsunaga was showing signs of progress. He’s been wrestling in DDT for 7 years and despite having a few tag team championships to his name he’s been mostly a comedy wrestler. Then earlier this year he defeated Kenny Omega in the King of DDT 1st Round. He hasn’t been able to repeat that performance since then but he is getting close after becoming the No. 1 Contender for the DDT Extreme Title. Matsunaga won a 3 Way Match against Masa Takanashi and Keisuke Ishii when he countered Takanashi’s Takatonic into a pinning cradle. Matsunaga is looking forward to finally challenging for a singles title but it is for a belt that Akito currently holds with a tight grip. The title match will happen at Kasukabe Hall on 12th December.

Members of the DNA rookie class competed in the dark match. It’s become quite clear that the former sumo wrestler Kazusada Higuchi is the top prospect after he won the match for his team. He is currently undefeated in his first three matches.

The current World of Stardom Champion, Yoshiko confronted Saki Akai at the merchandise stand before the show began. Yoshiko said she needs a challenger when Stardom runs Korakuen on 23rd December and Akai is who she wants to fight. Akai was taken aback but eventually accepted the challenge. A grumpy Yoshiko also attacked Amon Tsurumi over how he has handled DDT’s relationship with Stardom.

*X is Shiori Asahi.
7. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Soma Takao

This is it for Soma Takao. Can he prove he is on the main event level or was he just lucky to get the title shot?

Despite being out of action to recover from a fracture right heel, Sanshiro Takagi is being forced to defend the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles along with Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata. Probably not the best timing to do this given the big story in wrestling this week. But it will most likely be a comedy match so he should be ok.

KUDO will debut a new theme song on this show. Farewell Shaolin Soccer soundtrack!

DDT “FIRST TIME IN NUMAZU 2014” Results

November 9, 2014

DDT “FIRST TIME IN NUMAZU 2014”, 09/11/2014
Shizuoka Kiramesse Numazu
346 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. KUDO defeated Gota Ihashi with the Diving Double Knee drop (8:02).
2. 3 Way Match: MIKAMI defeated Akito and Shigehiro Irie when MIKAMI pinned Akito with a School Boy (8:26).
3. Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki defeated Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Sasaki submitted Nakazawa with the Crossface Lock (0:20).
3a. Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki defeated Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Ibushi pinned Nakazawa with the Sit Down Last Ride (9:37).
4. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & DJ Nira when Oishi submitted Nira with a Cross Knee Lock (12:13).
5. Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao defeated HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano when Takao pinned Urano with a Cradle (17:30).
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata (c) defeated Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo when Hirata pinned Honda with the Sliding Kick (19:27).
*V1 for T2Hide.

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence was centred around Kazuki Hirata. The junior of T2Hide wanted to prove he deserved to be a champion and that he could dance with the best of them. Hirata redeemed himself when he pinned Antonio Honda to keep the belts. Amon Tsurumi approached T2Hide after the match asking if they wanted to make their match against Gorgeous Matsuno & the Brahman Brothers on 30th November for the titles. Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi both declined, citing their opponents don’t have the track record to deserve a shot. But Hirata accepted the challenge and confirmed the belts will be on the line. He then danced to celebrate.

Soma Takao got a measure of revenge on Yasu Urano in the semi-main event. The finish was almost a repeat of last week’s match in Saitama. Urano was about to counter cradle the Gin And Tonic but this time Takao blocked it and was able to pin his current rival. Takao called it a strategic victory and proof that he can adjust and prepare himself for HARASHIMA. Urano told him not to get ahead of himself. They still have a singles match together on 15th November.

Since this was DDT’s first time in Numazu, Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi provided a demonstration at the beginning of the show to an audience that contained people who were watching wrestling for the first time. Dino invited Oishi’s mother into the ring and asked her to play the role of the referee while Oishi and one of the DDT trainees explained the rules. Oishi’s mother would return to be the replacemnt referee for Dino & Oishi’s match against Yukio Sakaguchi & DJ Nira when Daisuke Kiso was shoved face first into Dino’s ass. Oishi trapped Nira in a Cross Knee Lock and his mother called for the bell when Nira tapped out. Oishi credited his mother for the victory.

Michael Nakazawa entered the ring announcing today was his triumphant homecoming after a brief trip to Norway for warrior training. Daisuke Sasaki submitted him in 20 seconds. Nakazawa wanted an immediate rematch so he could show the results of his training in Norway. It was granted but Nakazawa wound up losing again, this time to Kota Ibushi.

Akito and MIKAMI met in the ring for a skirmish before their DDT Extreme Title match. However, it was a 3 Way match with Shigehiro Irie playing the third wheel. Irie understood the situation and sat in the crowd to let Akito and MIKAMI wrestle each other. MIKAMI yelled for help when he was in danger of submitting to Akito. Irie came to the rescue but MIKAMI betrayed him afterwards with a Lariat. Akito tried to give MIKAMI the Kinniku Buster but it was countered into a match winning School Boy. MIKAMI wound up getting one over on the Extreme Champion.

DDT “DDT DRAMATIC GENERAL ELECTION 2014 ~LAST ELECTION DAY~” Results

September 28, 2014

DDT “DDT DRAMATIC GENERAL ELECTION 2014 ~LAST ELECTION DAY~”, 28/09/2014
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
2,100 – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Maokoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata defeated MIKAMI & Gorgeous Matsuno when Oishi pinned Matsuno with the Jikiden Tornado Clutch (4:25).

5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao (c) when Hirata pinned Irie with a Miracle Clutch (11:22).
*Team Dream Futures fail in V3. T2Hide become the 14th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions!
6. DDT Extreme Title – Nobody Knows Rules Match: Akito defeated Danshoku Dino (c) with the Kinniku Buster and confession of love (15:06).
*Danshoku Dino fails in V3. Akito becomes the 30th DDT Extreme Champion!
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega (c) when Takeshita pinned Omega with a Cross Arm German Suplex (25:13).
*The Golden Lovers fail in V7. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo becomes the 50th KO-D Tag Team Champions!

Three title changes were among the highlights from today’s show, the final day fans could vote in the DDT Dramatic General Election. In the main event Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo scored a massive upset victory over the Golden Lovers to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles. For weeks the two young wrestlers were looked down upon by Kenny Omega and even Kota Ibushi a little bit. With Antonio Honda cheering them on from their corner, Takeshita was able to hit the Touchdown on Omega followed by the Sky Twister Press from Endo for a nearfall. Endo went outside to block Ibushi while Takeshita used a Cross Arm German Suplex to finally pin Omega. After the match Kenny admitted defeat and said he leaves the future of DDT to the new champions. Takeshita & Endo thanked the fans for their support and said they will continue to work up to the top.

The DDT Extreme Title changed hands in the semi-main event. Akito beat Danshoku Dino in a Nobody Knows Rules match. The rules were convoluted to say the least. One count pinfalls could end the match, speaking English was banned, complaining about feeling pain was banned, rope breaks were banned, trainees acted as lumberjacks outside the ring and 3 count pinfalls were awarded for both kissing and submitting opponents. Daisuke Kiso needed to have the rules written down just to figure out what was going on. Akito hit the Kinniku Buster on Dino and then he kissed him. Akito then said it was a dream come true for him to face Danshoku Dino in a title match at Korakuen Hall. He was glad to have met him. Kiso recognised that as a confession of love and awarded Akito the match and the Extreme Title!

Finishing off the trio of title changes, the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship now belongs to T2Hide! The match was all about Kazuki Hirata and his Magnum HIRATA antics. He had Shun Miyatake (Trainee) and Hiroshi Fukuda join him dressed as women for his dancing entrance. Shigehiro Irie came close to pinning Hirata several times but his Beast Bomber was countered into a Cradle for the upset. Most surprised of all was Hirata himself. He said he works hard and takes wrestling seriously. Then he started dancing again.

DDT announced a new project dedicated to their new trainees. DDT New Attitude will produce its first show in Kitizawa on 28th November. Shunma Katsumata, Shun Miyatake (Trainee) and Union rookie Tomoya Kawamura join 4 new trainees for the event. In Miyatake’s case it will be recognised as his official debut match. The DNA trainees so far have only been identified as Nakatsu, Umeda, Iwasaki and Higuchi. Nakatsu is from Kyoto and has participated in “underground mixed martial arts”. Umeda is a kickboxer from Kumamoto. Iwasaki is from Sapporo and has trained under Kenichi Yamamoto. Higuchi is a sumo wrestler from Hokkaido.

DJ Nira & Super Sasadango Machine came up with the perfect plan to defeat HARASHIMA. They stole his contact lenses! Nira even swallowed them to make sure HARASHIMA will never get them back. With blurred vision, HARASHIMA was ineffective for a lot of the match. Sasadango stripped Yasu Urano of his shirt and bandana and put them on himself to trick HARASHIMA into thinking he was Urano. HARASHIMA then hit the real Urano with the Somato. Sasadango gave Urano several Lehman Shocks but HARASHIMA came to the rescue by wearing Amon Tsurumi’s glasses. He hit Sasadango with the Somato and Urano got the pin.

An update was given for DDT’s “Wrestling Cannonball” movie that will soon be in production. If I have the translation right the movie will follow three different teams driving to different locations and having matches against local wrestlers. Team A consists of Minoru Suzuki, Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai with Muscle Sakai as their cameraman. Team B is KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi. Team C is Danshoku Dino, HARASHIMA & Kota Ibushi with Michael Nakazawa accompanying them.
