DDT “ROAD TO NEVER MIND 2022 IN KUMAMOTO” Results

December 17, 2022

DDT “ROAD TO NEVER MIND 2022 IN KUMAMOTO”, 17/12/2022
Kumamoto City Information Distribution Center
250 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. 3 Way Match: Shunma Katsumata defeated Saki Akai and Kazuki Hirata when Katsumata pinned Hirata with a Cradle (6:31).
2. Special Tag Match: Akito & Kazuma Sumi (w/ Yoshihiko) defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno when Akito pinned Dieno with a Stepover Toe Hold (11:26).
3. Sanshiro Takagi & Yusuke Okada defeated Toru Owashi & Takeshi Masada when Okada pinned Masada after the Stunner from Takagi (8:28).
4. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated HARASHIMA & Hideki Okatani when Sasaki submitted Okatani with the Numero Dos Punto Seis Seis Seis (11:23).
5. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toi Kojima defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the WR (16:03).
6. Kumamoto Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuji Hino, Makoto Oishi & Shiori Asahi defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Chris Brookes & Yuki Ishida when Oishi pinned Ishida after the Cactus Flower (20:36).

Yuki Ishida’s homecoming show was spoiled by Ω. Ishida got to speak on the microphone at the beginning of the show. The end of the show however had Makoto Oishi standing over him throwing insults in front of everyone. Yuji Hino also announced Ω will be producing his 20th Anniversary show in Kumamoto on 20th July next year. DDT will be back there before then in May so Ishida promises to become stronger in time for that.

The big news coming out of this show came from backstage comments made by Sanshiro Takagi & Akito about Atsushi Onita’s upcoming appearance on 7th January. All of a sudden they accused Onita of monopolizing the Current Blast Death Match gimmick! They fear that style of wrestling will die out when Onita is finally gone and called it a negative on the pro wrestling world. Takagi & Akito challenged him to put his trademark for the stipulation on the line in a 6-Man Tag Death Match. Soma Takao will be the third man on the DDT team, putting the three company president wrestlers together to take the trademark away from Onita by force. They claim it will be better if DDT gets control of the trademark so they can spread exploding death matches across the world.

Takeshi Masada still has a lot to learn, like don’t trust anybody while you are wrestling. He almost had Yusuke Okada beaten when Takagi suddenly told him he passed his test and can now go to the DDT show in Hollywood next year. Masada believed him and dropped his guard. Takagi then kicked him in the gut and gave him a Stunner so Okada could roll him up into a pin. Masada said he will remember this and swore revenge on Takagi.

Akito’s team winning today against Pheromones means that his requested stipulation is now added to their match on 29th December. That stipulation is Pheromones must disband if they lose that match.

Takashimadaira Ward Community Center

The complete card for tomorrow’s BASARA show will not be revealed until it begins. The only match advertised going into it is Ryota Nakatsu versus guest wrestler Yuko Miyamoto. The usual roster of regulars will be there too.

DDT “ROAD TO NEVER MIND 2022 IN FUKUOKA”, 18/12/2022
Pivole Fukuoka

1. Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Saki Akai & Toi Kojima

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SE-NO, MERRY CHRISTMAS! 2022”, 24/12/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Haruna Neko Vs Kaya Toribami
2. Pom Harajuku Vs Arisu Endo
3. Rika Tatsumi Vs Mahiro Kiryu
4. Hikari Noa Vs Yuki Aino
5. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Nao Kakuta
6. 3 Way Match: Miu Watanabe Vs Raku Vs Juria Nagano
7. TJPW Year End Special 8-Man Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima & Suzume Vs Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Hyper Misao & Moka Miyamoto

Every match but the main event was put together by a fan lottery during yesterday’s show. The singles matches all have 10 minute time limits. I’m surprised it took random chance for Haruna Neko Vs Kaya Toribami to finally happen. Cat Vs Bird is so obvious! One of them might actually win too.

DDT “HATSUYUME 2023”, 03/01/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Universal Title Next Challenger Decision Battle: Naruki Doi Vs Daisuke Sasaki
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs MAO & Shunma Katsumata

Either CDK or ShunMao will become the next KO-D Tag Team Champions. CDK can start the new year adding another championship to their growing collection of tag team achievements. Masahiro Takanashi also wants the win to kick off his goal of regularly appearing on DDT shows for the entirety of 2023. MAO & Shunma Katsumata have plenty of history with their opponents in plenty of ways. Beating them to take the vacant Tag Titles will make up for all of the times they lost to them.

Daisuke Sasaki has so many grudges and conflicts going on I’m starting to lose track. He has a tag match against El Desperado coming up next week then in January he has a first time singles match against Naruki Doi. The winner gets a DDT Universal Title shot later that month. Sasaki is fed up with Dragongate wrestlers coming over to DDT to the point where he can’t tell them apart anymore (he first thought Doi was Masato Yoshino). He will be even more annoyed if a DG wrestler ends up beating Ueno for the Universal Title before he can. Doi believes he deserves this opportunity because of how much success he already gained during his brief time in DDT.

Cara Noir will be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’23”, 04/01/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. HIMAWARI Debut Match: HIMAWARI Vs X
2. Wakana Uehara Debut Match: Wakana Uehara Vs X
3. International Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Trish Adora
4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Saki Akai & Yuki Arai (c) Vs Max The Impaler & Heidi Howitzer
5. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

Two new women will make their pro wrestling debuts at the Ittenyon show, even though they already wrestled matches already. Wakana Uehara had a match in October for the Yume Pro Wrestling -dream on the ring- project and liked it so much she decided to move ahead with starting a wrestling career. She is from Kanagawa and was born on 13th May, 1996. She is 163cm tall. Her atheltic history includes cheerleading, swimming, kickboxing, dance and ballet.

HIMAWARI became a Tokyo Joshi Pro trainee in November. She previously performed with Actwres girl’Z, wrestling two matches for them in August before suddenly leaving the group at the end of October. She is from Tokyo and was born on 18th December, 1997. She is 155cm tall.

Shinjuku FACE

1. Tryout Match: Shunma Katsumata Vs Anarko Montaña
2. 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito, MAO & Kazuma Sumi

7. Road To NEVER MIND 2022! Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida Vs Yuki Ueno & Toi Kojima

The rest of the month is going to give Kazusada Higuchi and Yuki Ueno plenty of matches against each other to prepare for the KO-D Openweight Title bout on 29th December. Harimao, The 37KAMIINA and a few others are getting pulled into the action too.

Saki Akai has a warm up match against her opponents for Tokyo Dome City Hall as well. Saori Anou & Riko Kawahata are coming over early for a tag match, except here Akai is teaming with Yoshiko Hasegawa from Ganbare☆Pro instead of Yuki Arai.

It was eight years ago when Anarko Montaña was last in DDT. The masked wrestler from Chile was brought over by his friend Guanchulo/Diego back then but that was his only appearance for DDT. He is coming back next week for a tryout match with Shunma Katsumata. A good performance here and he may get to stick around.

The vacant KO-D Tag Team Titles will soon find its new champions. The teams competing for the belts on 3rd January will be revealed on this show. There will also be an announcement naming the wrestlers in the running for a future DDT Universal Title shot.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ANGEL AND RABBIT”, 15/12/2022

Is the show not Mizuki enough? Have a Battle Royale full of Mizuki then!

Will Rhio have reclaimed the EVE Title by the time she gets to team with Maki Itoh?

DDT “ROAD TO NEVER MIND 2022 IN KUMAMOTO”, 17/12/2022
Kumamoto City Information Distribution Center

1. 3 Way Match: Saki Akai Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Shunma Katsumata

3. Sanshiro Takagi & Yusuke Okada Vs Toru Owashi & Takeshi Masada
4. Special Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito & Kazuma Sumi (w/ Yoshihiko)

Higuchi and Ueno will have other matches away from each other to look forward to. Harimao are teaming with Chris Brookes against Ω while Ueno leads The 37KAMIINA against BURNING.

DDT “ROAD TO NEVER MIND 2022 IN FUKUOKA”, 18/12/2022
Pivole Fukuoka

1. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito & MAO

6. Harimao Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida Vs Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata

The Ω unit are trying to ge themselves back to full strength before the end of the year. I don’t know if winning a match against a team with Azul Dragon is worth anything but I guess beggars can’t be choosers here.

DDT “HATSUYUME 2023”, 03/01/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Universal Title Next Challenger Decision Battle: X Vs X
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: X & X Vs X & X

DDT have laid out their schedule of championship matches taking place throughout the Spring. 2023 starts off with the vacated KO-D Tag Titles being brought back along with the No. 1 Contender for the Universal Title being determined.

DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2023 TOUR IN SHINJUKU ~FIRE!~”, 13/01/2023
Shinjuku FACE

1. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Winner Of 3/1 Decision Match

Ueno’s plan if he becomes a double champion is to defend both the KO-D Title and Universal Title once a month in separate matches for as long as his body can take it. He also wants to take the Universal Title overseas. That plan can be done without the need for the KO-D Title but Ueno is determined to do everything he can to become the unquestionable face of DDT.

DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2023 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 21/01/2023
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs X

Either Jun Akiyama or Super Sasadango Machine won’t have to wait long until the next DDT Extreme Title defence.

DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2023”, 29/01/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs X, X & X
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: X & X (c) Vs X & X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

The first KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence of 2023 will have either Naruki Doi & DISASTER BOX as the defending champions or maybe it will be BURNING with Kotaro Suzuki instead.

DDT “FRIENDSHIP, EFFORT, VICTORY IN NAGOYA 2023”, 18/02/2023
Aichi Nagoya International Conference Center Event Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs X
2. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs X

Nagoya is getting two title matches.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2023”, 26/02/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs X, X & X
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: X & X (c) Vs X & X

DDT spent February 2022 building them month around the Ultimate Tag League. That doesn’t seem to be the case for 2023. The 2021 league took place in May and it’s only a young tournament. It hasn’t established its annual schedule yet.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2023 ~LONGEST 5 HOUR SPECIAL IN KORAKUEN HISTORY~”, 21/03/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

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

DDT’s 26th anniversary show is taking place in Korakuen Hall and the goal is for it to be 5 hours long. Around 14 or 15 matches is the expected amount being planned for the event.

There will be other championship matches happening on this show. Which ones are yet to be determined. But if there is any company that can fill a 15 match card in this day and age with nothing but championship matches it’s DDT. I’m sure they still have the Umemura Personal Computer Copy & Paste Title lying around in their office somewhere.

This time last year Yukio Naya was in the dark match on the same show as the D-Ou Grand Prix final. One year later and he is in the main event fighting in the tournament final. He is motivated to win so he can go beat Kazusada Higuchi again, this time for the KO-D Openweight Title. His power is what concerns Yuki Ueno. However Ueno has his speed to use against that. While Naya has been training with his father to improve his luck, Ueno spent time relaxing in a sauna with Shinya Aoki.

2. Sanshiro Takagi & Yusuke Okada Vs Toru Owashi & Takeshi Masada

DDT “DRAMATIC DO IT! 2020” Results

February 16, 2020

DDT “DRAMATIC DO IT! 2020”, 16/02/2020
Kumamoto City Distribution Information Hall
171 Fans

1. Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Umeda Driver (9:53).
2. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Makoto Oishi & Yoshihiko when Owashi pinned Yoshihiko (0:21).
2a. Rematch: Toru Owashi & Yoshihiko defeated Makoto Oishi & Kazuki Hirata when Yoshihiko pinned Hirata with the Reincarnation (7:52).
3. Soma Takao defeated Yuki Iino with a Running Elbow Butt (9:45).
4. HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Akito & Mizuki Watase when HARASHIMA pinned Watase with the Somato (16:55).
5. DDT Megatonweight Single: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yukio Naya with a Diving Body Press (14:09).
6. Burn, The Land Of Fire! Burn, DDT! Kumamoto Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ DDT Sauna Club Vs DAMNATION: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie defeated Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yuki Ueno when Endo pinned Ueno with the Shooting Star Press (20:04).

The debut of the DDT Sauna Club could have gone better. MAO would have had Mad Paulie beaten but Daisuke Sasaki pulled Yukinori Matsui out of the ring during the pin count. By the time he recovered, DAMNATION went on the offensive. Konosuke Takeshita attempted to turn the tides but that fell apart when a Lariat aimed for Tetsuya Endo hit Yuki Ueno instead. Endo finished off Ueno to give DAMNATION the win. After the match Takeshita offered to bring MAO & Ueno to a local sauna. Ueno didn’t know if they deserved to visit one after losing a match. Takeshita told him that saunas accepts winners and losers. They can win and lose in wrestling but they never lose in the DDT Sauna Club!

The Running Elbow Butt is becoming an effective counter move for Soma Takao. He used it to stop dead Yuki Iino’s Spear.

Match #2 began with Yoshihiko lying on the canvas. Toru Owashi stepped on top of it and his weight easily pinned down his opponent for the three count. Kazuki Hirata complained about the match being so short. They didn’t go on a 16 hour bus ride to give paying customers a 20 second match! He told Makoto Oishi team with him and restart the match straight away. In the rematch Yoshihiko put up a far better fight. Hirata knocked out Owashi and Oishi with the Tegatana Chops to the neck. When he got his hands on Yoshihiko, the Hirata GO! Glasses came into play. All four wrestlers wore the glasses and danced until Yoshihiko pinned Hirata with the Reincarnation.

The black Gauntlet that belonged to Cody Hall seems to have been deactivated after his exit from DDT.

Chris Brookes being back in DDT means CDK are reunited. Maybe Mizuki Watase can join him & Masahiro Takanashi so he will finally have something to do.

Raku Chases After The Princess Tag Titles, NωA’s Back Alright!

February 12, 2020

1. Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Keigo Nakamura

3. Soma Takao Vs Yuki Iino
4. DDT Megatonweight Single: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yukio Naya
5. HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Akito & Mizuki Watase
6. Burn, The Land Of Fire! Burn, DDT! Kumamoto Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ DDT Sauna Club Vs DAMNATION: Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yuki Ueno Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie

With Cody Hall now gone from DDT, the matches he was originally booked in for the rest of this month are getting replacements. Keigo Nakamura will now take on Tomomitsu Matsunaga in the opener.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2020”, 23/02/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

Nagoya City East Sports Center

1. Hiroshi Yamato Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Soma Takao & Mad Paulie Vs Kazuki Hirata & Yukio Naya
3. 3 Way Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Yuki Iino & Mizuki Watase

6. Saki Akai “Okibariyasu” 7 Match Series – 4th Match – Rocky Of Naniwa II Vs Human Torpedo II: Saki Akai Vs Miranda Gordy
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine

The big change is with the KO-D Tag Team Titles match. The match was going to be cancelled until Danshoku Dieno got Super Sasadango Machine to team with him because he is “big and fit” like his last tag partner. Dieno said despite the twists and turns this week, his ambition has not changed. He still intends to win as many DDT championships as he can.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STAND PROUD”, 01/03/2020
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Natsumi Maki
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Maki Itoh & Raku
3. International Princess Title: Thunder Rosa (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

Raku now has a win under her belt and she got it at Miu Watanabe’s expense. With Maki Itoh’s guidance she also wants the Princess Tag Team Titles too. Itoh agreed to team with her because she wants to see if her hard head is tougher than Rika Tatsumi’s ass.

Miyu Yamashita and Natsumi Maki continue their series of singles matches. Yamashita was happy with Maki’s performance in their previous match. Now she will see if Maki has gotten even better in the third match.

Yuka Sakazaki will not be at the show. The popular guess online as to why is she may be on the next AEW PPV happening in Chicago the same weekend.

DDT “KAZUKI HIRATA 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW! 10 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 14/03/2020
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

1. Chris Brookes, Royce Chambers & Yuki Iino Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Mizuki Watase
2. Unusual Junior And Unusual Junior And Takeshita: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Maku Donaruto Vs Best Stretchman V3

6. Special 8-Man Dokken Battle!: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano & Naoki Tanizaki Vs Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo, Mad Paulie & Hiroshi Yamato
7. Synchronized Reunion! 10 Years OF HIRATA GO!: Kazuki Hirata & Keisuke Ishii Vs YO-HEY & Kenshin Chikano

The revival of NωA attracted the attention of Kazuki Hirata. They used to feud with Hirata and the rest of T2Hide. They are not around anymore so Hirata is sending FUMA and Nautilus after them.

BOYZ “BE AMBITIOUS! 2020”, 26/04/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2F Hall

1. Makorin Contra Makorin ~ 2 Vs 2 Vs 1 Handicap 3 Way Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno & Akito Vs Shunma Katsumata & MAO Vs Makoto Oishi

The last BOYZ show ended with Makoto Oishi stuck in the middle of a new idol rivalry. Both Homoiro Clover Z and NωA have come back. Oishi is a vital member of both groups and can’t decide who to choose. The answer is to have the two groups fight over him. But in a twist he will have to be in the fight too! He is going into this match on his own, representing the combined entity that is HomoωA.

MAO’s Thoughts On Tanaka, Hole Brothers Chasing Gold, STRONGHEARTS/DAMNATION Further Their Alliance

February 4, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 08/02/2020
Aichi NGK Sports Plaza 3rd Stadium

1. Miu Watanabe Vs Raku
2. Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa
3. Yuna Manase & Mirai Maiumi Vs Hyper Misao & Pom Harajuku
4. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Haruna Neko Vs Mizuki, Suzume & Sena Shiori
5. Saki Akai Vs Hikari Noa
6. Miyu Yamashita Vs Natsumi Maki
7. Yuka Sakazaki & Maki Itoh Vs Lana Austin & Yuki Aino

Yuka Sakazaki will be wrestling on AEW Dynamite tomorrow night. She’ll be back in Japan this weekend to prepare for her another preview match against Lana Austin.

Raku begins her quest to win a match. Miu Watanabe won’t go light on her just because they are both Up Up Girls.

A bunch of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster had cameos on the latest episode of the CBS cop drama S.W.A.T. I’m not making this up. Miyu Yamashita fights a detective inside Robot Restaurant while Shoko Nakajima tries to pull a gun on the guy from Better Off Ted. I swear I’m not making this up!

DDT “SUNDAY KASUKABIAN! 2020”, 09/02/2020
Saitama Kasukabe Hall

1. Kazusada Higuchi & Saki Akai Vs Hiroshi Yamato & Keigo Nakamura
2. 3 Way Match: Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Soma Takao Vs Kazuki Hirata

4. Tetsuya Endo, Mad Paulie & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Akito, Mizuki Watase & Yukio Naya
5. Yuki Ueno Vs Cody Hall
6. Charisma Vs Gongitsune!: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Antonio Honda
7. Harashimao Vs ALL OUT!: HARASHIMA & MAO Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Iino

Cody Hall gets his hands on one half of the KO-D Tag Team Champions. He should be careful though. If Yuki Ueno beats him then Ueno takes the black Right To Challenge Gauntlet from Hall.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 11/02/2020
Kitazawa Town Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Yuna Manase Vs Hyper Misao Vs Nodoka Tenma

6. Mina Shirakawa Spanish Tour: Miyu Yamashita Vs Mina Shirakawa
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Lana Austin

A few days before Mina Shirakawa travels over to Spain for a weekend of wrestling in RCW, she gets a match against Yamashita.

DDT “DRAMATIC DO IT! 2020”, 16/02/2020
Kumamoto City Distribution Information Hall

1. Cody Hall Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Makoto Oishi & Yoshihiko

6. Union MAX Title: Masahiro Takanashi (c) Vs Minoru Fujita

Sento Minzoku have the chance to win both BASARA titles in two weeks time.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2020”, 23/02/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Mad Paulie Vs Yukio Naya Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura & Mizuki Watase
3. All Human Beings Are Brothers Vs We Are Family 6-Man Tag Match: Dansoku Dieno, Cody Hall & Super Sasadango Machine Vs Shinya Aoki, Hiroshi Yamato & Kazuki Hirata
4. 3 Way Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Yuki Ueno Vs CIMA & Soma Takao Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Makoto Oishi
5. 8-Man Tag Team Elimination Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, T-Hawk & El Lindman Vs Akito, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Iino & Chihiro Hashimoto
6. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Chris Brookes
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Masato Tanaka (c) Vs MAO

MAO said he is honored to be competing for the KO-D Openweight Title less than 5 years into his pro wrestling career. Masato Tanaka has been wrestling since before MAO was born. MAO saw him for the first time on TV Asahi’s “World Pro Wrestling” television program back in 2010. He thinks Tanaka is one of the people who made him dream of becoming a pro wrestler so this will be a very special match. Also MAO believes the core of DDT is now made up of the DNA generation with Konosuke Takeshita and Tetsuya Endo right in the centre. Winning the KO-D Title will make MAO join the centre. Tanaka wants MAO to deliver his strange brand of wrestling because he does not want to lose against that style.

The #STRONGHEARTS return to continue their business partnership with DAMNATION. They face ALL OUT with their honorary member Chihiro Hashimoto in an Elimination Tag match. Hopefully Yuki Iino has gotten over his problems with Hashimoto. Also Shunma Katsumata is back from his minor surgery. Elsewhere CIMA teams up with Soma Takao, who used to wrestle as BIMA in his college club days.

DDT “ISN’T IT DRAMATIC 2020”, 24/02/2020
Nagoya City East Sports Center

1. Saki Akai “Okibariyasu” 7 Match Series – 4th Match – Rocky Of Naniwa II Vs Human Torpedo II: Saki Akai Vs Miranda Gordy
2. DDT Senbatsu-gun Vs Nagoya & Kengo Takai-gun: X & X Vs Kengo Takai & X
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Cody Hall

Hall joined forces with Danshoku Dieno to form The Hole Brothers. This is all part of Dieno’s plan to win every championship he can in DDT. The first target in his sight is the KO-D Tag Titles held by Nautilus.

A sudden challenge has been made by Nagoya wrestler Kengo Takai. He is bringing a team with him to take on a selection of DDT wrestlers.

DDT “DRAMATIC RED READY! 2020”, 01/03/2020
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

1. Yuni Kid Wrestler Graduation Match: Yuni Vs X
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo, T-Hawk & El Lindaman

The #STRONGHEARTS/DAMNATION alliance continue with a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles shot. This all seems to be Tetsuya Endo’s idea. His work with T-Hawk & El Lindaman lately has worked out so far.

CIMA and Maku Donaruto will be on the show. Put them in the same match. Don’t put Donaruto with Yuni!

DDT “KAZUKI HIRATA 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW! 10 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 14/03/2020
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

1. Unusual Junior And Unusual Junior And Takeshita: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Maku Donaruto Vs Best Stretchman V3
2. Ora Ora Vs Danshoku Kitsune ~Please Enjoy Tominaga In DDT~: Yukio Sakaguchi & Punch Tominaga Vs Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda
3. Special 8-Man Dokken Battle!: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano & Naoki Tanizaki Vs Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo, Mad Paulie & Hiroshi Yamato
4. Synchronized Reunion! 10 Years OF HIRATA GO!: Kazuki Hirata & Keisuke Ishii Vs YO-HEY & Kenshin Chikano

I should figure out how long Kazuki Hirata has been doing his gimmick for. Is it longer than Magnum TOKYO at this point?

Katsumi Tamagawa will be the referee for the main event.

FUMA, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and Kouki Iwasaki will be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 08/02/2020
Aichi NGK Sports Plaza 3rd Stadium

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Natsumi Maki

The first meeting was a decisive win for Miyu Yamashita. She welcomes the rematch with Natsumi Maki but only if Maki is fully motivated for it. Whether it is because of ring rust or a mental block, the version of Maki she defeated was not the one who was top tier in the roster before her injury.

Saki Akai will be on the show.

DDT “SUNDAY KASUKABIAN! 2020”, 09/02/2020
Saitama Kasukabe Hall

1. Kazusada Higuchi & Saki Akai Vs Hiroshi Yamato & Keigo Nakamura

3. Charisma Vs Gongitsune!: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Antonio Honda
4. Harashimao Vs ALL OUT!: HARASHIMA & MAO Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Iino

The cool sword is on the line when Daisuke Sasaki takes on Antonio Honda. Also the KO-D Openweight Title shot at Saitama Super Arena but let’s just focus on the cool sword for now like Sasaki is doing.

5. Fuminori Abe Vs Ryota Nakatsu

Shigehiro Irie arrives in BASARA for the second time. His first appearance was at last year’s “FUMA FEST” show. Irie versus Isami Kodaka could be a showstealer.

DDT “DRAMATIC DO IT! 2020”, 16/02/2020
Kumamoto City Distribution Information Hall

1. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Makoto Oishi & Yoshihiko
2. Soma Takao Vs Yuki Iino

4. Burn, The Land Of Fire! Burn, DDT! Kumamoto Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ DDT Sauna Club Vs DAMNATION: Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yuki Ueno Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie

A group of the DDT wrestlers like to visit saunas together during their free time during tours. Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Yuki Ueno usually tweet about their sauna adventures using the hashtag #DDTサウナ部. Their bond has grown so strong that they now will team up for matches. Sadly Katsumata is currently out of action getting a metal plate removed from his cheekbone so he has to miss this one.

GAKE NO FUCHI JOSHI PRO “GAKEPPUCHI SNOW WHITE 2020”, 12/03/2020
Saitama Wrestle Arena

1. Miyako Matsumoto (w/ Ippanjin Munenori Sawa) Vs Chikara (w/ Mao)

The theme of Gake no Fuchi in 2020 is “I Want To Help Those Who Are In Need With Pro Wrestling”. Miyako Matsumoto is continuing this theme by using pro wrestling to find a potential bride for Chikara. This came about when Chikara took part in a rap battle and owned himself by admitting he can’t get married. The “bride” in question is Mao from the idol group Senosister. She describes herself as the Atsushi Onita of the idol world, having attended a Super FMW show in 2016 and getting Onita’s “holy water” thrown at her. She saw a picture of Chikara and was turned off because he looks like her uncle. Nevertheless, she agreed to attend the next show because her rent is due and she wants the money. Munenori Sawa was also invited to help out.

BASARA “FUMA FEST VOL.4 DECADE OF DECADANCE ~FUMA FUCKIN’ 10TH ANNIVERSARY~”, 11/04/2020
