A press conference was held today for Shinichiro Kawamatsu and Osamu Nishimura to meet each other before their 6-Man Tag Match at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022”. Also in at the conference were Soma Takao and Akito. Kawamatsu said he’s been able to train for the match without having it interfere with his political duties. His wrestling style will be ground focused and he wants to see Nishimura use the Muga style against him. He brought along a T-shirt from 15 years ago that Nishimura autographed for him at the time. Nishimura was touched by this and said if Kawamatsu respects him that much, he will show him the Muga style in a DDT ring. Nishimura isn’t forgetting about Akito and Takao though. Even though it is a tag match, Nishimura will treat it like he’s fighting against three different opponents on his own to show how determined he is.

The match also means a lot to Takao because it is taking place in his home of Ota Ward and he some day hopes to become a city councilor. He would like to learn from both Kawamatsu and Nishimura to achieve that goal. Nishimura spent most of his time talking about his hometown Bunkyo and had to be reminded by Hisaya Imabayashi to talk about the wrestling match.

6. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs El Unicorn
7. Beer Garden Specialty Customer Lottery 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Tetsuya Endo, Konosuke Takeshita, Naomi Yoshimura, Yuki Ueno, Chris Brookes

The upcoming Beer Garden show may be a little different than usual but some of the traditions are sticking around. The main event 6-Man Tag will determine its teams by a lottery held at the start of the show. Randomly chosen fans will pick names or balls out of a box that decides who teams with who. Also on the card is Imabayashi’s annual ghost story. They can be so scary it’s fatal!

The grudge match between Daisuke Sasaki and El Unicorn is going ahead but without any stipulation added to it. Unicorn wants to get revenge for DAMNATION T.A constantly unmasking him. Sasaki was willing to put his hair on the line against Unicorn’s mask but that does not seem to be necessary for now.

It’s still supposed to be a non-alcohol Beer Garden show but three of the DDT wrestlers will do their damnedest to get drunk anyway. The drinking songs just aren’t the same when you only chug glasses of water to them. You know what I’m saying?

DDT doing a Fans Bring The Weapons match. What could go wrong?

A dangerous encounter between Minoru Suzuki & Yukio Sakaguchi against HARASHIMA & Shinya Aoki is being sponsored by a local radio show. Then there is an odd bunch of wrestlers gathering together for a 6-Man Tag Match with one participant yet to be revealed.

A press conference was held by DDT and Takeshi Masada was there to talk about his upcoming debut match. The 20 year old said he is grateful to get his first match after only three months of training. He originally applied to be part of DDTeeeen!! while he was still in university but that plan went out the window because of the pandemic. Eventually he took a leave of absence from his studies and successfully applied for DDT’s regular training system. He found out the reason he is facing HARASHIMA is because he was born in the same year HARASHIMA had his debut match. HARASHIMA gave him advice, saying that training for matches and actually wrestling in them are completely different. However he encourages Masada to do whatever he wants without hesitation.

9. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo

The same press conference put the spotlight on Keisuke Okuda’s return to DDT. This is all Yoshimura’s idea because the success he and Kazusada Higuchi are currently achieving reminded him of their time in DNA with Okuda and Kota Umeda. Okuda then turned up the heat by provoking Yukio Sakaguchi. He called him a scared old man and kicked over a table. Hideki Okatani turned over another table in reaction and a brawl started between the two sides. When Sakaguchi grabbed a glass bottle and threatened Okuda with it, staff ran in to break up the fight.

The mystery masked man following Pheromones around is now being called the White Briefs Man by DDT. His identity will be unveiled at Korakuen Hall but DDT wants to figure out who it is before then. Sanshiro Takagi and Hisaya Imabayashi are holding a contest for DDT fans to guess who the White Briefs Man is. The winner who gives the correct answer will get a 10,000 yen Amazon gift voucher as their prize. The voucher was paid for with Imabayashi’s own money.

5. Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Battle Royal: Yuji Hino Vs Chris Brookes Vs Shinya Aoki Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Makoto Oishi Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Yusuke Okada Vs Yukio Naya Vs Hideki Okatani Vs Yuya Koroku
6. Special Single Match: Asuka Vs Saki Akai
7. DDT Extreme Title – Fluorescent Lighttube IPPON Death Match: Akito (c) Vs Joey Janela
8. Road To WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022! Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama

The Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet is back after a two and a half year absence. The match combines the Battle Royal with a Ladder match with the prize hanging above the ring. Usually there are several prizes on offer but for now DDT is saying there will be only one Gauntlet and the winner of the match is whoever retrieves it.

A new masked member of Pheromones showed up on yesterday’s show. There are guesses going around it is Michael Nakazawa because the mystery man pulled down his pants and used them to do the Ultimate Venom Arm. Pheromones are sort of denying it by saying it can’t be him because he should be doing his job in America. So either Nakazawa is getting a Pheromones style gimmick makeover or he is purposely being used as a red herring.

The new debut Takeshi Masada is having his first pro match after only three months of training. It will be the quickest amount of time any trainee has ever made their debut in DDT. The 21 year old from Osaka stands 180cm high and weighs in at 84kg. His athletic background is in both basketball and Shorinji Kempo.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022”, 20/08/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Yusuke Okada, Yuya Koroku & Ilusion Vs Toi Kojima, Yuki Ishida & Takeshi Masada
2. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & X (w/ Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari) Vs Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya & Super Sasadango Machine Vs Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda

7. DDT 25th Anniversary Special 6-Man Tag Match: Dick Togo, Daisuke Sasaki & KANON (w/ MJ Paul) Vs Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yasu Urano
8. DDT Universal Title: Masahiro Takanashi (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
9. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo

Now that Tetsuya Endo has recovered 100%, he is ready to give back to the fans for their support by reclaiming the KO-D Openweight Title. It is a match Kazusada Higuchi wanted more than anything else too.

No matter who came out of the DDT Universal Title match yesterday, Yuki Ueno is getting the next shot anyway. Yusuke Okada originally brought him up as the next challenger if he became champion. Masahiro Takanashi kept the belt instead but liked the idea enough to do the same. Takanashi’s reason though is because he is looking for challengers from the younger generation and Ueno may very well be the absolute best out of all of them. If Takanashi beats him then he will start looking outside of DDT for more young challengers.

Okatani’s 3 Way Tag match is going through a few changes. Ilusion takes his spot and the match is now a 2 Vs 3 Handicap bout because Brookes was moved over another match.

Suzume versus Pom Harajuku is a first time singles match up between the two.

Miyu Yamashita will be in America during the same weekend as this show.

GANBARE☆PRO “CHUNGKING EXPRESS 2022”, 30/07/2022
Osaka 176BOX

1. GanPro Sanada Maru! Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie Vs Kazuaki Mihara & Kouki Iwasaki
2. ROMANCE DAWN Vs The 37KAMIINA: Shota & Soma Takao Vs Shunma Katsumata & Toi Kojima
3. GanPro Osaka Summer Team! Special Tag Match: Yumehito Imanari & Magnitude Kishiwada Vs Ken Ohka & Shinichiro Tominaga

Ganbare☆Pro visits Osaka so Yumehito Imanari can team with the region’s strongest pro wrestler Magnitude Kishiwada! He has a little bit of history with Ken Ohka. The last time he was in Ganpro was in 2018 where he faced Ohka one on one. Kishiwada won the match but Ohka convinced him to do an immediate rematch. Kishiwada won that too but Ohka again demanded another rematch to prove he could still fight over and over until he wins. Maybe that kind of fire will reappear here.

The 37KAMIINA are showing up in Ganpro and ROMANCE DAWN are waiting to meet them in the ring.

A challenge was thrown out by Kouki Iwasaki towards Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie. He wants a tag match against them and is bringing in his local buddy Kazuaki Mihara to be his partner.

Tsuyoshi Okada and Tyson Maeguchi will be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 31/07/2022
Tokyo Otemachi Mitsui Hall

1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Miu Watanabe Vs Winner Of Match 2A
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Nao Kakuta Vs Miyu Yamashita

4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Rika Tatsumi Vs Winner Of Match 2D

The field of eight is almost completed. The bracket gets mixed up after this point and the semi-final pairings will be decided via lottery at the end of the show.

GANBARE☆PRO “ULTRA SOUL 2022”, 13/08/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. ROMANCE DAWN for the new world: Shota Vs Soma Takao
2. Yoshiko Hasegawa Re-Debut Match: Yuna Manase & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Moeka Haruhi & YuuRI
3. HARUKAZE 5th Anniversary Match: HARUKAZE Vs Makoto
4. Tatsuhito Takaiwa 30th Anniversary Match: Tatsuhito Takaiwa Vs X
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie

A comment made in the past is motivating Imanari to prove his doubter wrong. When he was part of a main event in Korakuen Hall back in October 2020, Shigehiro Irie singled him out as the only person in the match underserving of that spot. Now that Imanari has the Spirit Of Ganbare Title, he wants to defend it against Irie in Korakuen to prove him wrong. Irie was surprised to hear the challenge because they haven’t crossed paths that often since that show almost two years ago. He is impressed with Imanari’s new found confidence but warns when you fight Irie, you will lose both your confidence and your championship!

Tatsuhito Takaiwa is celebrating his 30th year as a pro wrestler. His anniversary match has not been decided yet.

There is another wrestling anniversary being celebrated on the show, although it is a lot shorter than Takaiwa’s. Haruka Kato has been wrestling for over a decade but it is her alter ego HARUKAZE who recently reached the 5 year milestone. She asked Makoto to be her opponent for the special occasion. The reason is because after Kato left Stardom, Makoto was the first person to get her a booking despite having never known her previously. Ever since then Kato credits Makoto for keeping her in pro wrestling.

The re-debuting Yoshiko Hasegawa was born in Saitama on 28th February, 1987. She is 150cm tall and weighs 47kg. She originally wrestled for Actwres girl’Z from 2019 to 2020 until a neck injury took her out of action for almost the entirety of 2021. She officially left Actwres right at the end of last year and made her wrestling reappearance at “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA” earlier this month, signing with Ganbare☆Pro.

Shota will be going on an American excursion this September with not concrete plan on when to return. He decided to take a massive gamble and see if he can make it from scratch as a pro wrestler in America until he is all out of options. He has connections over there but right now has nothing guaranteed for him once he makes the trip. Ganpro is giving him a send off match against his own ROMANCE DAWN partner Soma Takao.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022”, 20/08/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

For one night only Naomi Yoshimura is bringing together a DNA reunion! He asked DDT to give him a match teaming with Kota Umeda and Keisuke Okuda, saying long time fans will understand why. In DNA Yoshimura led a faction called the Naomi Kingdom. Okuda was a member of the unit and Umeda was their biggest rival. DDT agreed to Yoshimura’s request and gathered together a suitable trio of opponents. It’s Yoshimura’s old tag partner HARASHIMA as well as Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani from Eruption!

Kodaka said he is waiting for the invitation to be on that show. He also mentioned wanting to chase after the IRON FIST Tag Titles currently being held by Speed Of Sounds. Miyamoto asked if Kodaka was going to team with Daiki Shimomura to challenge them but Kodaka said they already tried and failed. Instead he wants Miyamoto to team with him so Yankee Two Kenju can become tag champs again! They are both 40 years old now but do not want to use age as an excuse for their failures.

Shiro Asahi took part in the 3 Way Jacket match wearing full Kendo gear. Bogu, kendo stick and all.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 18/07/2022

2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2D: Pom Harajuku Vs Suzume

Same as above but this time Miyu Yamashita will be absent because of she is wrestling in America for Garden State Pro that day.

DDT “SUMMER VACATION 2022”, 24/07/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya Vs Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda Vs Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Gota Ihashi

5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & KANON (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Toi Kojima
6. DDT Universal Title: Masahiro Takanashi (c) Vs Yusuke Okada
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Asuka (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura

Am I sensing some jealousy coming from Daisuke Sasaki? He is accusing The 37KAMIINA of all getting big heads from their recent appearance on a national TV show. He wants to put them in their place and is putting the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line to do so. MJ Paul and Toi Kojima were already meant to face each other in a dark match so they are now bumped up to the main card. KANON is also getting fed up with the enthusiastic energy coming from the sauna boys. Don’t they know you’re supposed to stay quiet in public saunas!

Sanshiro Takagi is not satisfied with just getting the DDT Extreme Title away from Pheromones. He wants to destroy the unit completely and won’t rest until they are done for. Toru Owashi & Gota Ihashi were already scheduled to face them in a tag match so Takagi is now sticking his nose into their business.

Daisuke Sasaki is calling in the big guns to combat Konosuke Takeshita on his return. He’s bringing his master Dick Togo back to DDT! Sasaki’s history with his maestro is usually hostile so there haven’t been many times when they teamed together. But “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022” is a big show and Sasaki is offering the olive branch to Togo. It will also be KANON’s first time in the ring with him too. We’ll see if wrestling with DAMNATION T.A is any different from wrestling with House Of Torture. In response to this, Takeshita chose MAO & Yasu Urano as his partners. Urano was picked because he knows both Sasaki & Togo inside out!
