Union Hangover, Daimond Dust Card, Yuzupon’s Final Bounce

January 7, 2013

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2013”, 14/01/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Goro Jr. & El Hijo del Goro Vs Daichi Kazato & SAGAT
2. Union Non-Certified US Heavyweight Title: Hiroshi Fukuda (c) (w/ Rumi Kazama & Mame Endo) Vs Jun Kasai
3. Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match: A.YAZAWA Vs Seiya Morohashi Vs Ryuichi Sekine Vs Menso~re Oyaji
4. Cherry & Masako Takanashi Vs Mio Shirai & Yuko Miyamoto
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

The Union Vs Drift feud got more heated in Yokohama yesterday with Isami Kodaka pinning Keisuke Ishii only to get laid out by the DDT Extreem Champion afterwards. They’ll meet again in Osaka on 12/1 when Union and Drift fight each other in the KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Title Tournament and then two days later Kodaka finally battles Ishii for the Extreme Title with Ishii still to decide what match it will be. The feud continues down the card with the new BJW Death Match Champion, Shuji Ishikawa teaming with Ken Ohka to face Drift’s Shigehiro Irie & Takao Soma.

It is bad enough for Hiroshi Fukuda that he has to go one on one with Jun Kasai. Now he has to put the Union Non-Certified US Heavyweight Title on the line. At least things are beginning to look up for the guy when it comes to having managers. The last couple of months has seen Fukuda trying to win back Rumi Kazama’s trust while trying to handle the unwanted attention of Mame Endo. Fukuda’s profile has begun to rise and he is starting to turn him into a hot commodity in wrestling. So both Kazama and Endo have agreed to manage Fukuda together and both will accompany him for his match against Kasai.

DDT “DIAMOND DUST IN NAGOYA 2013”, 20/01/2013
Nagoya Telepia Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Michael Nakazawa Vs Tetsuya Endo Vs Hiroshi Fukuda
2. Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Hoshitango Vs Makoto Oishi, Hikaru Sato & DJ Nira
3. Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Gota Ihashi
4. Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma Vs MIKAMI & Masa Takanashi
5. Akito & Shigehiro Irie Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Kengo Takai
6. Danshoku Dino Vs Gabaiji-chan
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano (c) Vs Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega

HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano are two of the most accomplished tag team wrestlers in DDT. With 11 KO-D Tag Team Title reigns between them (6 for HARASHIMA, 5 for Urano), there are very few teams that can match up to them. The Golden Lovers may be one of those teams. Despite holding the KO-D Tag Team Titles only once together, Kota Ibushi and the current KO-D Openweight Champion Kenny Omega are one of the most popular tag teams to ever appear in DDT. So who better to get the first shot at the new champions?

No, not the Brahman Brothers!

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

1. Sanshiro Takagi & Yuzuki Aikawa Vs Danshoku Dino & Yoshiko
2. Kota Ibushi Vs Konosuke Takeshita
3. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Extreme Title: Kenny Omega (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii (c)

It’s possible that by the time this match comes around, Omega could be aiming to complete the KO-D Triple Crown by adding the DDT Extreme Title to both KO-D Championships.

The joshi queen of bouncy-bouncy, Yuzuki Aikawa has her final match in DDT teaming with one of her biggest supporters Sanshiro Takagi. Yoshiko comes along for the ride but will be disappointed she will not team with her beloved Kota Ibushi. Instead she gets to be with Danshoku Dino. I don’t think Dino is happy with the idea either.

DDT “YOKOHAMA NEW YEAR WRESTLING FIESTA” Results

January 6, 2013

ura-shima-hiro-kudo

DDT “YOKOHAMA NEW YEAR WRESTLING FIESTA”, 06/01/2013
Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse
331 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Young New Generation Battle – Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match: Hideyoshi Kamitani, Tank Nagai & Risa Sera defeated Hiroshi Fukuda, Yusaku Ito & Neko Nitta when Kamitani pinned Fukuda with a Backslide Pin (12:26). (Special Guest Referee: A.YAZAWA)
2. Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Gorgeous Matsuno with a Triangle Choke (4:25).
3. New Year Battle Royal: Tetsuya Endo defeated A.YAZAWA by Ring Out (7:10).
Order of Elimination: Antonio Honda, Gota Ihashi, Daisuke Sasaki, Akito, Masa Takanashi and A.YAZAWA.
4. Kana, Mio Shirai & Sanshiro Takagi defeated Michael Nakazawa, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Hikaru Sato when Kana & Shirai submitted Nakazawa with an Armbar and a Leglock (10:36).
5. Shigehiro Irie & DJ Nira defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Irie pinned Oishi with the Flying Sausage (7:43).
6. Isami Kodaka & Hiro Tsumaki defeated Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma when Kodaka pinned Ishii with the Isamu Leg (11:07).
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano defeated MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami (c) when HARASHIMA pinned MIKAMI with the Somato (15:25).
*MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami fail in V4. HARASHIMA & Yasu Uano become the 46th KO-D Tag Team Champions!

2013 already looks to be a good year for UraShimaHiro. The team of HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano successfully defeated MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami to become the new KO-D Tag Team Champions! It was a crazy match which saw plenty of ladders being used, some were even brought in by Fujinami of all people. But UraShima were able to get rid of Fujinami and put MIKAMI down for the count with the Tombstone Piledriver followed by the Somato. Urano thanked Fujinami after the match and said he would be welcomed back into DDT anytime. Tsurumi Amon praised HARASHIMA and Yasu Urano and called them one of the strongest teams in DDT due to their vast combined success with tag team wrestling throughout their careers. But Amon pointed out they may not be the absolute No. 1 strongest team in DDT. HARASHIMA asked who was that team. Urano guessed the Golden Lovers. Amon took that as a nomination from the champions for their first title defence. So in Nagoya on 20/1 UraShima will defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega!

Tempers flared between Keisuke Ishii and Isami Kodaka in the build up to their DDT Extreme Title match in Union on 14/1. They will also cross paths again in the KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Title Tournament on 12/1 when Drift and Union face off in the semi-final. Today, Kodaka scored a pinfall over Ishii but a brawl broke out after the match and Ishii left Kodaka laying with the High Angle Double Arm DDT.

Kota Ibushi fell ill with the flu and had to miss the show, leading to a small shuffle in the card. Gota Ihashi was moved to the Battle Royal while Shigehiro Irie & DJ Nira were slapped together as a last minute team to face Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi. Despite the lack of preparation together, Irie & Nira were still able to win.

Michael Nakazawa, Hikaru Sato & Tomomitsu Matsunaga are now calling themselves 3CC Ltd Co. They want to get into the business of selling erotic DVDs of female wrestlers and the first talents they want to sign are Kana and Mio Shirai (Nakazawa’s a big fan of their recent gravure DVDs apparently). 3CC Ltd Co. brought along cameraman Yumehito Imanari to be in the ring and record the more suggestive moments of the match. Sanshiro Takagi didn’t like this and just wanted to have a normal wrestling match. Kana & Mio got the last laugh when they both made Nakazawa submit to a combined Armbar and Leglock, all while Imanari was filming it with gravure style camera angles.

Two new matches were announced for the 27/1 Korakuen Hall show. Yuzuki Aikawa will appear in DDT one last time before her retirement in April. She teams up with Sanshiro Takagi to face Danshoku Dino & Yoshiko. Also Kota Ibushi takes on Konosuke Takeshita.

Risa Sera from Ice Ribbon was the last name entered into the Young New Generation Battle. A.YAZAWA made his first appearance of the night to referee the bout which was turned into a Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match. A.YAZAWA would pop up again in the Battle Royal.

Kana’s return to DDT will have her be in the ring with Michael Nakazawa again. The last time Kana and Nakazawa fought each other was during an Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title Battle Royal that ended with Kana shoving Nakazawa’s head into a toilet to win the belt.

Tank Nagai from K-DOJO is added to the Young Generation 6-Man Tag. Nagai was awarded with the Rookie of the Year prize in his home promotion this year.

DDT “OSAKA 24 ZONE TOUR ~ NISHI DISTRICT”, 12/01/2013
Osaka Nishi Kumin Center

1. KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Title Tournament – Semi Final: Sanshiro Takagi, Makoto Oishi & Akito Vs HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano & Hiro Tsumaki

A one night tournament has been set up to determine the first ever KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Champions. Team Castle, UraShimaHiro, Team Dream Futures and Union make up the four teams of three. Meanwhile Danshoku Dino has a date with Yuji Hino while Michael Nakazawa goes through a gauntlet of DDT wrestlers to prepare for the year ahead.

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2013”, 14/01/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Hiroshi Fukuda Vs Jun Kasai
2. Cherry & Masako Takanashi Vs Mio Shirai & Yuko Miyamoto
3. DDT Extreme Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

The main event has more than just the DDT Extreme Title on the line. The winner will also go on to main event DDT’s Korakuen Hall event later this month against Kenny Omega in a Double Title match.

DDT “DIAMOND DUST IN NAGOYA 2013”, 20/01/2013
Nagoya Telepia Hall

1. Akito & Shigehiro Irie Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Kengo Takai
2. Danshoku Dino Vs Gabaiji-chan

Danshoku Dino’s original opponent El Samurai is now unable to wrestle on this show. Luckily, DDT found a suitable replacement in the form of Gabiji-chan. This elderly gentleman is from K-DOJO and is as mobile as Jackson Florida from Dragon Gate. Plus chances are good that he doesn’t stink of tobacco smoke.

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

1. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Extreme Title: Kenny Omega (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii (c)

The first DDT Korakuen main event of 2013 is a big one. Both the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Extreme Title will be on the line in a Double Title match. Kenny Omega’s first defence of the KO-D Title will be against either Keisuke Ishii or Isami Kodaka. The only person to hold both championships at the same time was Sanshiro Takagi in 2008.

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.

DDT “THREE TOTAL WORLDS” Results

December 16, 2012

DDT “THREE TOTAL WORLDS”, 16/12/2012
Hakata Star Lanes
428 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Michael Nakazawa defeated Hiroshi Fukuda with a Boston Crab Reversal (4:10).
2. Maki Narumiya defeated Neko Nitta with the You Never (7:41).
3. Yuto Aijima, Azul Dragon & Yasu Urano defeated Makoto Oishi, Masa Takanashi & Yukio Sakaguchi when Urano pinned Oishi with an Inside Cradle (12:21).
4. Keisuke Ishii, Takao Soma & Shigehiro Irie defeated Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Batten Tamagawa when Irie pinned Tamagawa with the Flying Sausage (10:55).
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami (c) defeated Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi when MIKAMI pinned Ihashi with the Deep “M” Impact (14:59).
*V3 for MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami.
6. Double Ring 5 Way TLC Match: Kenny Omega defeated HARASHIMA, Sanshiro Takagi, Danshoku Dino and Hikaru Sato (23:15).
6a. Hikaru Sato eliminated Sanshiro Takagi with a Back Drop (11:34).
6b. HARASHIMA eliminated Hikaru Sato with the Somato (17:06).
6c. Danshoku Dino eliminated HARASHIMA with the Gay-do Clutch (18:45).
6d. Kenny Omega eliminated Danshoku Dino with the One-Winged Angel (23:15).

The main event for this show was mayhem. Two rings with five wrestlers involved wasn’t enough. DDT decided to make it a TLC Elimination match too. Sanshiro Takagi built a castle of chairs again near the entrance. I think he might have a problem. Kenny Omega appeared to injure his foot after a Tope Suicide but he assured everyone after the match that he will be okay.

Tatsumi Fujinami praised Kota Ibushi’s power after the KO-D Tag Title match. It brought back memories of fighting Ibushi during his rookie years. Fujinami then said he would like to face him again in a singles match someday.

Three Total Worlds, COZY Heaven Police Mobilised!

November 28, 2012

DDT “THREE TOTAL WORLDS”, 16/12/2012
Hakata Star Lanes

1. Michael Nakazawa Vs Hiroshi Fukuda
2. Yuto Aijima, Azul Dragon & Yasu Urano Vs Makoto Oishi, Masa Takanashi & Yukio Sakaguchi
3. Keisuke Ishii, Takao Soma & Shigehiro Irie Vs Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki & Batten Tamagawa
4. Maki Narumiya Vs Neko Nitta
5. Double Ring 5 Way Match: HARASHIMA Vs Kenny Omega Vs Sanshiro Takagi Vs Danshoku Dino Vs Hikaru Sato
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami (c) Vs Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi

The Imanari Team of Kota Ibushi and his chubby doppelganger Gota Ihashi have been given a KO-D Tag Team Title shot after Ihashi requested for one at Korakuen Hall this past weekend. Ihashi looks ready to kick it up a notch and finally become a more established member of the DDT roster. The key might be for him to copy Ibushi even more. The colours and design of his ring gear is now identical to Ibushi’s.

A change in the card sees Antonio Honda taken out of the Double Ring match. Danshoku Dino and Hikaru Sato are both added in, making this a 5 Way Match. Honda is now in a Monster Army plus Batten Tamagawa (for America!) Vs Team Dream Futures bout.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2012”, 23/12/2012
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi Vs HARASHIMA & Hiro Tsumaki
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima Vs Monster Army
3. KO-D Openweight Title: El Generico (c) Vs Kenny Omega

Two months after they teamed together over in America for PWG, El Generico and Kenny Omega will soon collide over in Japan for DDT. Omega has voiced his displeasure at seeing Generico quickly achieve what he could not, victories over Kota Ibushi and winning the KO-D Openweight Championship. Generico has chosen Omega as his next challenger so the Canadian now has a chance to win the title he craves so much.

Antonio Honda’s stealing spree in the DDT locker room has gotten out of hand. His bad habit of stealing wrestling gear to sell online and raise funds for the Monster Army has finally gotten him into trouble. The straw that broke the camel’s back is a suitcase with a mystery item inside that Honda stole from Tsurumi Amon. Sanshiro Takagi has hired two powerful men to go after the Monster Army for their crimes. The team is none other than Hiroyoshi Tenzan & Satoshi Kojima! Takagi and TenKoji have banded together to become the COZY Police Force and their goal is to stop Honda from stealing more stuff. Takagi also wants his 3:46 entrance vest back, which Honda stole and gave to Hoshitango. The unknown factor right now is who out of the Monster Army will fight the Police. Will it be all of them?

Team Dream Futures scored a big victory over Ura-Shima-Kudo when Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated HARASHIMA & KUDO in the main event. KUDO injured his arm during the match and afterwards used a shirt as a makshift arm sling as he left the ring. Ishii bragged that in a year’s time Drift will main event DDT’s next annual Sapporo show, they will also main event every other DDT show and they will even main event every single wrestling show held in Sapporo.

Danshoku Dino Vs DJ Nira became a Loser Leaves Town match and thanks to some shenanigans ended up with Yukinori Matsui Choke Slamming Dino, allowing Nira to win. Nira then declared that all of DDT had to leave town. Dino corrected Nira and said the stipulation only lasted for one day and that next year DDT will hold two shows in Sapporo.

By the time Sanshiro Takagi made his entrance for the KO-D Tag Team Title match, he still didn’t know who his tag partner was. Shogun KY Wakamatsu brought along the Sapporo Machine to team up with Takagi but the team were unable to dethrone Tatsumi Fujinami & MIKAMI.

Yukinori Matsui also got involved in the Blindfold Death Match between Kenny Omega and Antonio Honda. Matsui performed a Double Clothesline to the two unaware wrestlers after he ended up in a few blind crossfires earlier in the match.
