DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2013”, 27/01/2013
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Makoto Oishi & Akito Vs Tetsuya Endo & Daichi Kazato
2. Planning The New Year – 1 Vs 5 Handicap Match: Hiroshi Fukuda Vs Michael Nakazawa, Hoshitango, Gota Ihashi, Batten Tamagawa & DJ Nira
3. HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano & Hiro Tsumaki Vs MIKAMI, Hikaru Sato & Masa Takanashi
4. Sanshiro Takagi & Yuzuki Aikawa Vs Danshoku Dino & Yoshiko
5. Kota Ibushi Vs Konosuke Takeshita
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Keisuke Ishii, Takao Soma & Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Yuji Hino
7. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Extreme Title: Kenny Omega (c) Vs Isami Kodaka (c)

Both Kenny Omega and Isami Kodaka had plenty of praise to give each other when they met to promote their KO-D Openweight & DDT Extreme Double Title match. Omega has a lot of respect for Kodaka due to his spirit and technique. As the DDT Extreme Champion, Kodaka was allowed to choose the stipulation for the match. He was tempted to make it a hardcore match so both men could do whatever they wanted in the ring. He decided to leave it as a normal match so if he beats Omega, it will prove without a doubt that he deservedly won the KO-D Championship. Kenny compared the match up to something like Street Fighter X Tekken or Capcom Vs SNK. He is 99% sure he can beat Kodaka but there is a chance a lucky punch will beat him. Kodaka said he has that punch but he acquired it from dedicated training instead of relying on luck.

The Monster Army have threatened to sell the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles if they win them and use the money to buy tanks! Antonio Honda explained that after he and his teammates win the belts, he will go wrestle in Vietnam and become famous. That will somehow increase the value of the belts to the point where they can afford tanks. Honda also warned Keisuke Ishii that at 27 years old, Ishii is at the stage of life when a person has the worst luck. Many many musicians have died at the age of 27 and Ishii could join them. Ishii pointed out that Daisuke Sasaki and Yuji Hino are also 27 years old. Ishii’s 28th birthday will be around a week after the show and he promises he will still have the title when he celebrates it.

HARD HIT “YOUTH”, 24/02/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Yasu Kubota Vs FUMA
2. Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Asaki Honda
3. Super Shooter Kamen Rider Vs NOSAWA Rongai
4. HARASHIMA Vs Hayato Mashita
5. Hikaru Sato Vs Yuji Sakuragi

Hikaru Sato announced five fights for the upcoming Hard Hit show. He is currently negotiating with different MMA fighters in order to sign two more fights for the card. Sato will fight Yuji Sakuragi in a rematch from their Pancrase bout from 26th January, 2006. Sakuragi won that fight in only 55 seconds of the first round. Sato is a far more experienced fighter now.

*Team Dream Futures become the 1st KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions!

Team Dream Futures are crowned the first KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions. The trio went through Union and Team Castle to win the tournament but surprisingly avoided Ura-Shima-Hiro. Team Castle got the upset win over that side in the first semi-final when Makoto Oishi used the Jikiden Tornado Clutch to get a flash pin ob Hiro Tsumaki. Drift meanwhile defeated the Union team in the other semi-final with Keisuke Ishii pinning Ken Ohka while continuing to piss off Isami Kodaka. Shigehiro Irie was the deciding factor in the final, pounding down Akito until he was finally able to put him away with the Vertical Drop Back Flip. After receiving the title belts, Irie said he was happy to be with a team of good friends and 2013 was going to be his year.

Yuji Hino was able to defeat Danshoku Dino by countout but it was at the cost of his Monster Army allies getting deep kisses. Dino then chased Hino back to the locker room where loud noises could be heard afterwards. Only Hino was able to return to the ring in time but with his tights pulled down to reveal his backside. Hino’s victory means that he prevented Osaka from being turned into a “Gay Town”.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

5. Hiro Tsumaki Vs Kengo Ohka
6. Shigehiro Irie & Takao Soma Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Ken Ohka
7. DDT Extreme Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

Keisuke Ishii has decided that he will defend the DDT Extreme Title against Isami Kodaka in a normal singles match. Ishii does not want the result to be decided with a cowardly attack involving weapons. He is under the impression that Kodama can only fight in Hardcore matches and does not know how to wrestle properly. Kodama thinks he can beat Ishii in any type of match. He also hopes he will win the belt and go on to fight the “Super Seiyan” Kenny Omega for the upcoming Double Title bout in DDT.

Daichi Kazato is the latest wrestler to be struck down with the flu that has been spreading around Japan the last couple of weeks. Gabaiji-chan the pro wrestling grandpa takes his place in the dark match.

Hiroshi Fukuda will now defend the Union US Title against Jun Kasai in a Texas Tiger Rope Philadelphia Banana Death Match. This is a match of his own creation inspired by Kasai’s monkey tendencies. The Philadelphia connection is from Kasai’s billed hometown while Fukuda himself claims to have grown up in North Carolina. The rules are based on the traditional Four Corner Strap Match with both men connected from the wrist with a tiger rope. However, there will be a bunch of bananas hanging on every corner. The winner will be the first one to eat a banana in every corner before his opponent.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2012” Results

December 23, 2012

kod-kennyomega

DDT “NEVER MIND 2012”, 23/12/2012
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
2,012 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. Dark Match: Tetsuya Endo defeated DJ Nira with a School Boy (0:05).
1. Takao Soma & Shigehiro Irie defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Soma pinned Oishi with the Boma Ye (10:36).
2. 4 Way Tag Team Match: MIKAMI & Gorgeous Matsuno defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Michael Nakazawa, Hikaru Sato & Masa Takanashi and Yukio Sakaguchi & Akito when Matsuno pinned Nakazawa with the Cross Armed Goregeous Superstar (8:32).
3. HARASHIMA & Hiro Tsumaki defeated Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi when HARASHIMA pinned Ihashi with the Somato (15:02).
4. 3 Vs 4 Handicap Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima defeated Antonio Honda, Yuji Hino, Hoshitango & Daisuke Sasaki when Takagi pinned Honda with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (11:09).
5. DDT Extreme Title – 3 Way Match: Keisuke Ishii (c) defeated Yasu Urano and Isami Kodaka when Ishii pinned Urano with the High Angle Double Arm DDT (12:18).
*V1 for Keisuke Ishii
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Kenny Omega defeated El Generico (c) with the One-Winged Angel (24:01).
*El Generico fails in V3. Kenny Omega becomes the 44th KO-D Openweight Champion!

Kenny Omega did it! He finishes off an excellent year by becoming the man to dethrone El Generico and finally win the KO-D Openweight Title. Despite the two being friends away from the ring, there was little good manners seen in the match when Omega offered a handshake and Generico kicked him away. When the Croyt’s Wrath didn’t work for the challenger, he had to bring out the One-Winged Angel to put Generico away for good.

Keisuke Ishii passed a difficult challenge in his first defence of the DDT Extreme Title by defeating Yasu Urano and Keisuke Ishii in a 3 Way match. Ishii was able to win without doing the overdone finish of letting your opponents beat each other up, then go steal the pin. Instead, Ishii took out Kodaka with the Kneel Kick. Urano played possum and caught Ishii with a flash roll up but only got a two count. From there Ishii caught Urano and went into overkill with two Fisherman Busters, a High Kick and then the High Angle Double Arm DDT to win the match in dominating fashion.

The COZY Police Force always get their men. Antonio Honda and the rest of the Monster Army recently became thieves and stole wrestling gear from every single locker room they’ve stepped foot in. When they stole an important briefcase from Tsurumi Amon, Sanshiro Takagi called in Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Satoshi Kojima to help him catch the criminal. TenKoji became victims themselves when the Monster Army stole their signature nose tape and entrance gear before the match. The Monster Army all came down wearing one of the stolen goods to taunt their opponents. Justice soon came down and the COZY Police Force won the battle and literally arrested the Monster Army.

The briefcase was returned to Tsurumi Amon and he later revealed its contents. Amon announced that DDT now has a brand new championship, the KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Championship. The title will have its first champions crowned after a one day tournament between four teams in Osaka on 12/1.

Gorgeous Matsuno Vs Yukio Sakaguchi will take place on 12/1. Danshoku Dino will take on El Samurai on 20/1 in Nagoya.
