Sumo Hall Additions, 5 Vs 5 Elimination, Tag Title Matches

July 4, 2011

DDT “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2011”, 24/07/2011
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

0. Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles: The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa
1. Battle Royal – Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title:
2. Summer Night Fever – 5 Vs 5 Elimination: Sanshiro Takagi, Hikaru Sato, Takao Soma, Kazuki Hirata & X Vs Yoshiaki Yago, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Super Shit Machine, Kengo Ohka & Minoru Suzuki
3. Special Singles Match: MIKAMI Vs Poison Sawada JULIE
4. Special Singles Match: Danshoku Dino Vs Bob Sapp
5. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) Vs Prince Devitt
6. 3 Way – KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & HERO! Vs GENTARO & Yasu Urano Vs X & X
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs KUDO

Also Appearing: Tsuyoshi Kikuchi, Yuzuki Aikawa, Emi Sakura and Riki Sensyu.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions of HARASHIMA & HERO! will have twice the trouble to handle at Sumo Hall when they defend the titles against two teams. On one side is the former KO-D Tag Champions GENTARO & Yasu Urano. On the other side will be a team featuring either Michael Nakazawa or Masa Takanashi plus a partner of thier choice. Nakazawa and Takanashi will be competing over who gets the spot over the next couple of shows.

The 5 Vs 5 Elimination match features Hikaru Sato and Takao Soma putting aside their differences to fight a common enemy. They along with Sanshiro Takagi and Kazuki Hirata will team up to fight the Susan Shit Hart Superstars. However, The Superstars had a trick up their sleeve and announced that Minoru Suzuki will be part of their team. This leads to a daunting task for Hikaru Sato as he now has a fellow member of PANCRASE Mission as his enemy on the night. But his team has room for one more wrestler to compete. Will Takagi bring along one of his TKG48 buddies to the fight?

Just like last year, Sanshiro Takagi will be pulling double duty on the show. He and Munenori Sawa will have their rematch against The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji for the coveted Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles in the Dark Match of the evening. Legendary referee Kyohei Wada will be the official for the bout once more. The previous match was plagued with countout finishes so this one may very well be Falls Count Anyhwere to determine a clear winning team the first time round.

There is much discussion going on behind the scenes in DDT over who gets the dubious honour of receiving the now traditional “Anal Blast” ceremony to open this year’s show. So far Michael Nakazawa and Batten Tamagawa are the top two choices considered. Nakazawa has been part of the ceremony for the previous two shows while Tamagawa probably realises this is the only chance he’ll ever get to have an important role at a Sumo Hall show, even if it means having fireworks shoved up where the sun don’t shine. This would be a weird time to try and do a segue way connecting Tamagawa’s American flag themed gear to wishing all of the American readers a happy Independence Day, wouldn’t it?

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2011” Results

June 19, 2011

*V1 for Shuji Ishikawa.
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated Takao Soma with the Splash Mountain (13:59).
*V2 for Shuji Ishikawa.

DDT now has their main event set for their biggest show of the year. Shuji Ishikawa successfully defended the KO-D Openweight Title not once, but twice on one of the final stops on the road to Sumo Hall. Ishikawa defeated both GENTARO and Takao Soma back-to-back to earn his first two title defences. Now he will face KUDO, who has been on a roll since winning the “King Of DDT”. At the end of the show, the DDT locker room joined KUDO in the ring and put him through a trial by fire to get him ready for Sumo Hall. One by one, the DDT wrestlers each gave KUDO one of their trademark moves in the hopes that they transfer their strength to him. However when Danshoku Dino was about to give KUDO the Danshoku Driver, Shuji Ishikawa booted him in the head and gave KUDO the Splash Mountain instead. Shuji yelled at KUDO and said that he will beat him at Sumo Hall.

The Shit Heart ♥ Foundation is going through some changes. Due to Takao Soma’s failure to capitalize his golden opportunity of beating a weakened Shuji Ishikawa and become KO-D Champion, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Super Shit Machine took matters into their own hands and kicked Soma out of the group. Matsunaga then announced that the SHF has joined forces with the Susan Guard from Union. The new unit is now called the Susan Shit Heart Superstars!

The unlikely team of Kenny Omega & Michael Nakazawa surprised everyone by winning the KO-D Tag Team Championships! The TKG48 duo of Munenori Sawa & Shigehiro Irie only had the belts for 15 days until they lost it in their first defence. HARASHIMA & HERO! came out to challenge the new champs. Omega accepted and planned out a special show at Shin-Kiba 1st RING on the 24th June. At this event will be just one match, and that match will be Omega & Nakazawa Vs HARASHIMA & HERO! for the KO-D Tag Titles! Omega then told everyone that he sees Nakazawa’s true potential and he just wants to help his friend.

Only a few more days until Dick Togo calls an end to his illustrious career in Japan. He had his final match for DDT today, teaming with Antonio Honda to defeat Yasu Urano & Daisuke Sasaki. The day before, Togo showed up at the K-DOJO show at Korakuen Hall for one last Kaientai*DX reunion where he again won the match for his team with the deadly Diving Senton.

It was announced that Kota Ibushi will have his first defence of the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title against Prince Devitt on 27th August at Sumo Hall.

The final Assassin sent from Bob Sapp to fight Danshoku Dino was Canadian indy wrestler Sexxxy Eddy. Before the match began, Eddy told the crowd that he always has the most beautiful woman in the arena strip him of his clothes. So he brought out Emi Sakura and performed a striptease for her. Dino was able to overcome this last obstacle and is now qualified to fight Bob Sapp at Sumo Hall. That was not the end of the night for Sexxxy Eddy, however. He briefly won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Masa Takanashi and then lost it to Keisuke Ishii.

The Special Dark Match between Gorgeous Matsuno and DJ Nira was interrupted by the announcement of DDT’s next “Anywhere Pro Wrestling” event taking place on 2nd July. The show is titled “Luggage Material Wrestling”. The match still went on while Tsurumi Amon was making the announcement and continued when he was finished. However, the match ran out of time just when DJ Nira hit the Rocket Punch on Matsuno.

Here is the card for Sumo Hall so far:

DDT “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2011”, 24/07/2011
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. MIKAMI Vs Poison Sawada JULIE
2. Danshoku Dino Vs Bob Sapp
3. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) Vs Prince Devitt

What Are You Doing? I’m Posting The Full Card For The Show!

June 14, 2011

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2011”, 19/06/2011
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Super Shit Machine Vs Rion Mizuki & Hoshitango
0. Special Dark Match: Gorgeous Matsuno Vs DJ Nira
1. Kota Ibushi, KUDO, Hikaru Sato & X Vs HARASHIMA, HERO!, MIKAMI & Kazuki Hirata
2. Masa Takanashi Comeback – Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Masa Takanashi (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii
3. Dick Togo DDT Last Match: Dick Togo & Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano & Daisuke Sasaki
4. Bob Sapp Games – Final Stage: Danshoku Dino Vs Bob Sapp’s Final Assassin
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Munenori Sawa & Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Kenny Omega & Michael Nakazawa
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs GENTARO
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa or GENTARO (c) Vs Takao Soma

The unlikely partnership of Kenny Omega & Michael Nakazawa are the first challengers for the new KO-D Tag Team Champions, Munenori Sawa & Shigehiro Irie. Let’s just assume for the moment that the unofficial team name for Kenny & Michael is The Lotion Lovers.

One more match for Danshoku Dino to win so he can finally fight Bob Sapp. The last challenge is always the most difficult. Can Dino overcome what could be the most dangerous assassin of all?

Kota Ibushi will get his IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title shot over at New Japan the day before this show. No hints were given as to who the fourth member of his team will be in the 8-Man Tag here.

Two KO-D Title Matches, Official Masa Comeback

May 6, 2011

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2011”, 19/06/2011
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Masa Takanashi Comeback – Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Masa Takanashi (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs GENTARO
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa or GENTARO (c) Vs Takao Soma

Shuji Ishikawa has a tough challenge ahead for his title reign. He will defend the KO-D Openweight Title against GENTARO on 19th July when GENTARO cashes in his “Anytime And Anywhere” contract. But that is not all for the championship on that night. There will be not one but two KO-D Title matches taking place in Korakuen Hall with the winner of Shuji Ishikawa Vs GENTARO taking on Takao Soma afterwards. Takao Soma has seen his profile in DDT rise ever since he won the Young Drama Cup. Since then, he has taken over the Shit Heart ♥ Foundation and revamped it to be a threat instead of a joke. Now he will have the advantage of being the fresh man in his title match.

We had the surprising return of Masa Takanashi at “MAX BUMP 2011” to announce his comeback match at the 19th June Korakuen Hall show. He will take on Keisuke Ishii in his first match since injuring his right knee last May and it will be for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship. When Masa and Keisuke had a faceoff at “MAX BUMP 2011”, Ishii used the 24/7 rule to his advantage by rolling over Masa with a Small Package to win the title when Masa least expected it. However, Masa quickly did the same to Ishii to win the belt back. Now they will meet in a proper match with the title on the line.

UNION “NIMOMAKEZU RAIN”, 02/06/2011
Shinjuku FACE

1. Tsuyoshi Kikuchi Vs Genichiro Tenryu
2. Dick Togo & Yasu Urano Vs Seiya Morohashi & Hiro Tsumaki
3. DDT Extreme Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs MIKAMI

MIKAMI earned a shot at the DDT Extreme Title when he and Jun Kasai defeated Isami Kodaka & Yano K Data at “GOLDEN UNION 2011”.

1. KO-D Tag Team Title: GENTARO & Yasu Urano (c) defeated HARASHIMA & HERO! when Urano pinned HERO! (13:03).
*V3 for GENTARO & Urano.

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa defeated Dick Togo (c) with the Cross-Arm Splash Mountain (31:18).
*Togo fails in V3. Ishikawa becomes the 36th Champion!

It really did turn out to be a big day for Shuji Ishikawa. He now reigns supreme as the new KO-D Openweight Champion, defeating Dick Togo for the belt. This is Shuji’s third reign as KO-D Champion, twice as Shuji Ishikawa and once when he wrestled under the mask as Koo. Will we see a similar title run as last time when he was able to hold title defences in Union?

Shuji’s first defence was confirmed to be GENTARO, who kept his word that he would cash in his “Anytime And Anywhere” contract to face the winner of Togo Vs Shuji. The match has been set for 19th June at Korakuen Hall.

Takao Soma declared that he wants to be next in line for a KO-D Title shot after GENTARO gets his match.

Keisuke Ishii was the big winner of the Royal Rumble. His prize was a shot at the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship. This meant the surprise return of Masa Takanashi! The match between Takanashi and Ishii was set for 19th June but when the two shook hands, Ishii gave him a Small Package and won the title! However, Masa then gave Ishii a Low Blow and Small Packaged him to win the title back!

This time Bob Sapp sent three assassins after Danshoku Dino. Choun-Shiryu led the attack along with two fighters from Hong Kong Pro Wrestling but Dino was too manly beyond their wildest expectations to be defeated.

The always bouncy in a good way Yuzuki Aikawa announced that she will compete at DDT’s Sumo Hall show.

The 1st Round matches for the King Of DDT tournament have been announced. They will take place on 21st May at Shin-Kiba 1st RING. The matches are:

Makoto Oishi Vs Kenny Omega
Antonio Honda Vs Seiya Morohashi
KUDO Vs Yasu Urano
Hikaru Sato Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga
Daisuke Sasaki Vs Super Shit Machine
HARASHIMA Vs MIKAMI
Keisuke Ishii Vs Shigehiro Irie
Kota Ibushi Vs Michael Nakazawa

7. 3 Way: Kota Ibushi Vs Danshoku Dino Vs HARASHIMA

The Shit Heart ♥ Foundation have been getting one over GRANMA for the last couple of shows thanks to some dirty tricks. Now Takao Soma & Super Shit Machine have two more advantages over GENTARO & Yasu Urano, the SHF are allowed fight under No DQ rules and the champions have to pin the challengers for five seconds in order to win. GENTARO & Urano have a tough task ahead of them if they aim to keep the KO-D Tag Team Titles around their waists.

DDT “NON-FIX DX 4.22”, 22/04/2011

4. KO-D Openweight Title: Dick Togo (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa

HARASHIMA & HERO! have been nominated as the next challengers for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. They will take on whichever team leaves the 17/04 Nagoya show as champions.

Danshoku Dino is two for two against Bob Sapp’s deadly army of assassins. The third one being sent to face Dino has been described as a thug. Take that for what it’s worth.

Gorgeous Matsuno has been away from wrestling matches in DDT since September 2008 due to old age and ill health. He’s made appearances in DDT since then but this will be his first match back in over two and a half years.

DDT “DICK TOGO RETIREMENT SHOW”, 30/06/2011
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Antonio Honda & Jado Vs The Great Sasuke & TAKA Michinoku
2. Dick Togo Vs Gedo

I haven’t labelled Dick Togo Vs Gedo as Togo’s retirement match because he may be having more than one match on the show.

Togo Gets Ready For Shuji, Shit Happens

March 28, 2011

Dick Togo may have eliminated Kota Ibushi from the title chase, but he still has a busy time ahead of him. The main event for DDT’s return to Shinjuku FACE on 13th April has Togo teaming with New Japan wrestlers Gedo & Tomohiro Ishii to take on Ibushi, Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki.

Shuji Ishikawa is next in line for a crack at the KO-D Openweight Champion after winning the Battle Royal from the 14th Anniversary show. Their match is set for 4th May in Korakuen Hall. That’s not all, as Togo’s GRANMA stablemate GENTARO has the “Anytime And Anywhere” title shot, which allows him to cash it in at any show from now until Sumo Hall. GENTARO has claimed he will challenge the winner of Togo Vs Ishikawa, but he hasn’t exactly said when he will face them.

GENTARO has enough on his plate already. He and Yasu Urano are currently the KO-D Tag Team Champions and they now have the Shit Heart ♥ Foundation on their heels. Takao Soma and the Super Shit Machine are next in line to challenge for the belts. Two singles matches involving both sides will happen on 13th April. GENTARO better not take Takao Soma lightly as the young SHF leader has been on a role this year. Meanwhile Yasu Urano faces the Super Shit Machine, who has already made his presence felt in DDT with his SHIT Down Power Bomb finisher (Best move name of 2011 so far). The Tag Team Title match will take place four days later in Nagoya.

Danshoku Dino was able to defeat the first of Bob Sapp’s assassins, American indy wrestler Jonathan Gresham. Another assassin will battle Dino in Shinjuku FACE. Just the thought of Bob Sapp training pro wrestlers to be ninjas fills me with great joy.
