*Kazusada Higuchi becomes the 79th KO-D Openweight Champion!

There is a word that has been following around Kazusada Higuchi, particularly recently. “Kuronin” (苦労人). It’s a word that describes a person who works hard because they struggle so much in their life. For Higuchi that struggle was his failure to win the KO-D Openweight Title throughout his 8 year career. Five chances that spread across from his super rookie days in DNA up to his current standing in Eruption all ended in failure. Today he finally reached the top and claimed the belt by winning King Of DDT! The vacant KO-D Title was on the line in the final when Higuchi faced a red hot Naomi Yoshimura. The two heavyweights had an even battle of strength with Yoshimura using a Choke Slam to counter Higuchi’s Brain Claw. Lariats were thrown back and forth. Yoshimura’s key moves the Harai Goshi and Osaka Pride were both blocked so he reverted to his original finisher, the Throwaway Power Bomb. Higuchi grabbed him in the Brain Claw once more and this time hit the Brain Claw Slam, pinning him for the victory.

Higuchi is now the champion and he needed to have his belt. Suddenly, Jun Akiyama entered the ring and volunteered to wrap the title around Higuchi’s waist. It was over a year ago when Akiyama established his authority in DDT by ordering a rebellious Higuchi to wrap the belt around his waist after beating him in a title match. To see Akiyama now present the title to Higuchi shows how much respect has been earned. Sanshiro Takagi then brought out the DDT flag that Higuchi carried to the ring at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022”. He told Higuchi he is now entrusting the flag to him as a symbol of DDT’s strength for him to lead the company with. Higuchi thanked the other members of Eruption as well as Akiyama for their support. He went through a lot to reach this point and is now putting a lot of thought into who he wants his first challenger to be. He wants to defend the title against Tetsuya Endo! He will wait for him at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 20th August.

Endo himself confirmed his return to the ring by announcing 24th July as his comeback date. He apologised to the fans causing worry with his absence while he recovered from his concussion. He was also sorry for showing a side at Saitama Super Arena that no champion should ever show. He received permission from his doctor to resume his in-ring training again last week and no longer feels any discomfort from moving around. He and DDT agreed to set 24th July as the target for his return. He is half excited, half anxious over it but will push himself hard over the next 3 weeks to regain any trust he lost from the fans. In his backstage comments, Endo said he lost to Katsuhiko Nakajima because he could not withstand his slap even if it was an accidental knockout. Everything that happens in the ring is reality and Endo accepts that reality. He will move on with his wrestling life on 24th July.

DDT’s latest foreign attraction has arrived but has the company been sold a bill of goods? Andrew “The Giant” Everett built hype to his DDT debut by claiming to be 223cm tall while weighing 190.5kg. When he finally showed up, people became skeptical because he looked to be around 175cm tall. Not even Chris Brookes kneeling down next to him could make “The Giant” look any taller. Everett also struggled to give MAO a Choke Slam. However as the match started speeding up, Everett’s aerial skills begun to be highlighted. A Shooting Star Press to MAO out of the ring wowed everyone. He then placed Shunma Katsumata up on the top rope and delivered the Choke Slam Spanish Fly to get the win. MAO is now a believer. He thinks Everett will become a tourist attraction in Japan once he stabs a spike onto his head and turns him into a second Sky Tree. Backstage, Everett mocked ShunMao for being small opponents and said he wants to fight the biggest guy in DDT… Yoshihiko?!?

The tricky wrestling style of Masahiro Takanashi has its benefits but the weakness is what happens once his opponents finally catch up to him. That was what happened today. Some wacky redirections from Takanashi caused Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku to bundle up together so HARASHIMA could hit a Swan Dive Body Press to the both of them. However Okada got his breath back and avoided the Takatonic. Instead he got to do the Intercept DDT and Diving Headbutt on Takanashi. Some cradle attempts were used from Takanashi but it couldn’t stop Okada’s momentum. In the end Okada got Takanashi’s shoulders on the mat for three with the Sudden Death. After the match Okada challenged him for the DDT Universal Title. He had to miss “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” and King Of DDT. He also couldn’t do anything but watch the rest of BURNING to their thing during that period. It’s driving him crazy so he wants the title match. Takanashi accepted the challenge and the match will take place on 24th July. Takanashi also said he is the one about to travel the world so the Universal Title rightfully belongs to himself.

Higuchi and Yoshimura bought went through important opponents in their King Of DDT semi-final bouts. As mentioned already, Higuchi’s history with Akiyama is one with plenty of disrespect and trust issues. Even putting that aside you are always in a fight for your life against Akiyama. Higuchi was almost counted out when he was given an Exploder Suplex on the floor. He was also almost pinned with exposed Knee Strikes from Akiyama. Higuchi almost got his big win earlier in the match with an Avalanche Brain Claw Slam but he took too long to go for the pin. Akiyama also tried a rate top rope attack but his Flying Knee Strike was countered in mid-air with a Lariat. Higuchi got to apply the Brain Claw again and turned it into the Brain Claw Slam to advance to the final.

Yoshimura continues to be unbeaten against Yuki Ueno in singles matches but don’t let that fool you into thinking it was an easy match. Some well timed Dropkicks kept giving Ueno an advantage but he could just not get his big moves to count when it mattered. Yoshimura blocked the BME and avoided the WR. Ueno however couldn’t stop the Throwaway Power Bomb and was done for when he was given the Osaka Pride. Ueno is obviously disappointed he lost but the experience made him excited to spread the word of how fun and strong DDT is.

Akito’s desire to regain the DDT Extreme Title is taking him through Pheromones hell. Before their match today began, Danshoku Dieno warned that he was lifting a banned torture technique that was handed down from generation to generation since the Edo Period. This was Pheromones way of judging Akito for the Extreme Title shot on 16th July. The torture move was eventually shown to be Akito getting his head sandwiched between Yuki Iino’s backside and Dieno’s crotch. Any rescue attempt from Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata was cut off by Yumehito Imanari. Akito was stuck in the hold for such a long time that the match was eventually stopped for his safety and Pheromones were declared the winners. After the match Dieno said Akito was not going to fight Iino on his own for the Extreme Title. The match will be a 3 Vs 1 Handicap match where Akito has to fight all of Pheromones by himself! Dieno reminded everyone the rule of the Extreme Title is the champion gets to pick the stipulation so Akito has to accept it.

A new referee named Yusho Nakata (son of the late NOAH executive and ring announcer Ryu Nakata) debuted on this show by working the opener and the dark match. That meant the poor guy had to deal with DAMNATION T.A. He tried to show control by warning Daisuke Sasaki over illegal usage of the ropes. But when Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya looked to be on the road to victory Nakata was pulled down and held back by MJ Paul. That gave KANON the chance to regroup and give Yuki Ishida a Modified Brainbuster that is now called the Sleepy Hollow for the win.

The dark match saw the other three members of Eruption beat the trio of Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Toi Kojima. There was an exchange between Saki Akai and Takao where Akai tried applying a Triangle Choke only to get slammed out of it. Kojima almost pinned Hideki Okatani with the Full Nelson Buster but Yukio Sakaguchi broke the count. Eruption took control with Sakaguchi & Akai giving Kojima a Sandwich PK. Kojima had enough strength to kick out of Okatani’s Northern Lights Suplex but the follow up Double Arm Suplex couldn’t be beaten.

Konosuke Takeshita is temporarily returning to Japan in August. He sent a video announcing he will be part of “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022” on the 20th.

Also revealed for the show was news of Shinichiro Kawamatsu’s debut match. He will team with Sanshiro Takagi & Soma Takao in a 6-Man Tag Match. Their opponents are Makoto Oishi, Akito and another pro wrestling politician Osamu Nishimura! Takagi wants to answer the question of who will win a fight between Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly and the Bunkyo City Council! Kawamatsu thought he wouldn’t be bringing politics into the ring for his match but he looks forward for the chance to wrestle Councilor Nishimura.

At the beginning of the show several wrestlers promoted a bunch of upcoming events. Katsumata promoted the upcoming Super Hardcore Girls Vs Prominence event taking place on 14th July.

Akiyama will be holding his 30th Anniversary show on 18th September. Two special guests were announced for it today. They are Yuji Nagata and Yoshinobu Kanemaru from New Japan! Akiyama has a deep history with both wrestlers so it was important for them to be involved in the show.

Ken Ohka was at the show promoting Ganbare☆Pro’s biggest show in their history “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA” at Ota Ward Gym on 10th July. He was joined by Yuki Aino & Raku who both promoted Tokyo Joshi Pro’s event in the same venue, “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22” on the 9th.

Last but not least, Atsushi Onita returns to DDT on 4th September for a Current Blast Death Match in Nagoya.

DDT “KING OF DDT 2022 2ND ROUND” Results

June 19, 2022

DDT “KING OF DDT 2022 2ND ROUND”, 19/06/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
430 Fans

0. Dark Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Dieno pinned Hirata with a Cradle (7:27).
1. DAMNATION T.A Vs Eruption!: MJ Paul & KANON Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani ended in a Double Countout (11:01).
2. THE KICKBOXING MATCH 2022: Hikaru Machida & Gota Ihashi defeated Shinya Aoki & Toi Kojima when Ihashi pinned Kojima with the Moonsault Press (R3 1:42).
3. MAO, Shunma Katsumata, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku defeated Yuji Hino, Yukio Naya, Chris Brookes & Yuki Ishida when Katsumata pinned Ishida after the Oretachi no MADMAX (13:33).
4. King Of DDT 2022 – Round 2: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Masahiro Takanashi with the Brain Claw Slam (4:41).
5. King Of DDT 2022 – Round 2: Jun Akiyama defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino with the Sexy Paradise Lock (11:34).
6. King Of DDT 2022 – Round 2: Yuki Ueno defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the WR (12:49).
7. King Of DDT 2022 – Round 2: Naomi Yoshimura defeated HARASHIMA with the Osaka Pride (19:24).

The King Of DDT moved over to Korakuen Hall for the 2nd Round. The top four matches of the show were all Quarter Final bouts. Naomi Yoshimura grabbed everyone’s attention by defeating his current tag partner and “big brother” figure HARASHIMA in the main event. It was an impressive result because everything about the match looked like HARASHIMA was going to take it. He hit the Somato but Yoshimura was too close to the ropes so he could easily reach for the rope break despite taking the full blow. HARASHIMA went for the Swan Dive Somato to finish the job but Yoshimura sprang up to his feet and caught him in mid air with the Harai Goshi! He followed up with the Throwaway Power Bomb but HARASHIMA was still fighting. HARASHIMA went for one more Somato but Yoshimura caught him again and swung him into the Osaka Pride. That was the end of it and Yoshimura pinned him for the three count!

Yuki Ueno had his own difficult mountain to climb over. Daisuke Sasaki has been a big thorn in his side based on their previous matches together. Just like in “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2021” last August, Sasaki busted Ueno open and focused on making him bleed further. Ueno’s 1st Round opponent KANON also pulled the ref out of the ring when Ueno had Sasaki pinned with the Frog Splash. However he avoided La Mistica and kicked out of the flash Hurricanrana, holding onto Sasaki’s arm the whole time so he could suddenly pull him into the WR. It ended up being a big win for Ueno, one that puts his failure to beat Sasaki last year to rest.

The dreaded hose Yuki Iino used in the opening round made its return this time attached to a portable vacuum cleaner. He tried using it on Jun Akiyama but Makoto Oishi tried stopping him. Oishi got the hose shoved into his mouth while the other end was stuck up Iino’s backside for his troubles. Akiyama grabbed the vacuum afterwards, stuck it up to Iino’s lips and switched it on to suck the life out of his opponent. Iino somehow kicked out after taking a Knee Smash and the Exploder Suplex. Akiyama then thought outside the box and placed Iino in the Paradise Lock, giving one side of Korakuen a full display of Iino’s butt in all of its glory. Akiyama then shoved both ends of the hose into Iino’s mouth and butt until Iino gave up to the Paradise Lock.

There was even more trickery in the first Quarter Final match of the show. Kazusada Higuchi waited for his opponent Masahiro Takanashi only to see Baliyan Akki and Antonio Honda walk out both disguised as him. The real Takanashi entered the ring from the other side to ambush Higuchi. The plan didn’t offer Takanashi much because Higuchi soon picked him up into the Canadian Backbreaker. That was when Plan B happened and the bell suddenly rang. DJ Nira was at the timekeeper’s desk and rang the bell early to distract Higuchi. Takanashi tried to take advantage and set up the Takatonic. However Higuchi blocked the move, grabbed Takanashi and delivered the Brain Claw Slam for the win.

At the end of the show the four remaining wrestlers in King Of DDT took part in the lottery to pair up for the next round. Whoever chose the same colour balls will face each other in the semi final. The result is Ueno Vs Yoshimura and Higuchi and Akiyama. Yoshimura later said he would have preferred to face Ueno in the final so he cannot lose to him now. Ueno has never beaten Yoshimura one on one so this is the next step for him to become the strongest wrestler in DDT. Akiyama is happy to talk about anything other than the match he had today. He thinks Higuchi has never stopped thinking about him so it is time they settle their problems in the ring. Higuchi said he needs to beat Akiyama if he is to become the new KO-D Openweight Champion.

It was slightly unusual to see wrestlers from BURNING and The 37KAMIINA teaming together. Shunma Katsumata thought all four of them were on the same page so he rushed ahead to attack Yuji Hino. He was the only one though and he simply bounced off Hino’s big chest. Luckily for him MAO was there to help him fight off Yukio Naya. MAO also gave Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku and extra hand to Suplex Hino. Chris Brookes set the match up for Yuki Ishida to take control but the rookie was overwhelmed with NeppoWER!! MAO & Katsumata gave him with a version of the MADMAX to end the match.

The biggest combat sporting event to happen in Japan for years was taking place a few minutes away from Korakuen Hall while DDT was running this show. As the Tokyo Dome was hosting THE MATCH in front of over 56,000 people, DDT tried to capitalize on this with their own mega fighting bout called THE KICKBOXING MATCH to an audience of 430. The match itself was a tag team bout held under kickboxing rules. Shinya Aoki wished he was at the Tokyo Dome instead, until he got to see the round girl Sanae Takebayashi do her job. He changed his tone pretty quickly after that. Toi Kojima took the match more seriously and looked to be the better fighter against Gota Ihashi. Aoki met his match against Hikaru Machida and the two fought out of the ring over to the special ring announcer Miyata Mitsuru. Both of them decided to attack him instead before going back to the ring to continue the match. In the 3rd Round, Machida used the Irai Punch on Kojima to knock him out. But rather than end the match there, Machida got Ihashi to do a Moonsault and pick up the win that way. Afterwards it was announced that Ihashi’s prize for winning is qualification to fight at an upcoming KNOCK OUT event produced by Mitsuru. He was against the idea at first but was convinced into accepting the invitation. Unfortunately Ihashi later found out Mitsuru couldn’t find a suitable opponent matching his size so the plan may be scrapped for now.

The opening match between Eruption and DAMNATION T.A went out of control when the four wrestlers involved wouldn’t stop fighting each other. Yukio Sakaguchi and MJ Paul squared off with each other while Hideki Okatani and KANON provoked each other into a fight. All of them continued fighting outside the ring until they were counted out.

In the dark match Yumehito Imanari kept Toru Owashi off his game by purposefully filming him while they wrestled. Danshoku Dieno also put Kazuki Hirata into a disadvantage by taking the Hirata GO! glasses and stuffing them into his tights. That later backfired when Dieno put Hirata in position for the Danshoku Driver. When Hirata’s head was pulled into Dieno’s tights, his music began playing. Hirata then pulled his head out revealing he landed perfectly into the GO! Glasses and is now wearing them! However Imanari gave Hirata a DDT into Dieno’s backside and Dieno then sat on top of him for the pin.

Shinichiro Kawamatsu, the active member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly who recently held the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title appeared halfway through the show to give an important announcement. He is going to do make his official pro wrestling debut at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022” on 20th August! He wanted to show his gratitude to DDT for winning the Iron Man Title and Sanshiro Takagi made the suggestion for him to wrestle an actual match. Kawamatsu agreed to it, feeling regret for relying on his bodyguard and doing nothing but submit during his last appearance. He owes it to all pro wrestling fans to give it a proper shot and is finding time to train inbetween his political duties. He would like Hirata to be his opponent because he lost the Iron Man Title to him by submission. He thinks Hirata owes him a debt that should be repaid.

The international wrestler teased for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2022” is Joey Janela! He will make his DDT debut one week earlier on 14th August but his first match announced is at the Ota Ward Gymnasium show. “The Bad Boy” will take on Shunma Katsumata in a Hardcore Match! Katsumata began calling himself “The Happy Boy” in response to this news.

The Beer Garden show is back for 2022 at a new venue. This year’s edition will be held outdoors at the Ueno Park Amphitheater. For the moment the show is being marketed as a “Non-Alcoholic” show but that may change if the pandemic laws change closer to the show.

The 37KAMIINA announced they will be guests on the TV chat show “The World Unknown To Matsuko” airing on 21st June.

GANBARE☆PRO “KINDERGARTEN COP 2022”, 29/06/2022
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Vs Dotonbori Pro Wrestling: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ryuya Matsufusa
2. Ganpro Special Mixed 6-Man Tag Match: Shuichiro Katsumura, Yuna Manase & YuuRI Vs Mizuki Watase, Moeka Haruhi & HARUKAZE

The build to “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA” continues with Ganbare☆Pro putting together a lot of fresh matches it has to be said. BASARA are invited round with Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura taking on Keisuke Ishii & Nobuhiro Shimatani. That match doubles up as a Gran MilliMeters reunion for Shimomura and Shimatani. Former opponents Onryo & Tyson Maeguchi team up to go against the unique team of Tatsuhito Takaiwa & Shigehiro Irie. Also Ryuya Matsufusa returns to Ganpro for a match against Kouki Iwasaki.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22”, 09/07/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Willow Nightingale Vs X
2. Mei Suruga & Suzume Vs X & X
3. International Princess Title: Maki Itoh (c) Vs Invited Overseas Wrestler
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi

American wrestler Willow Nightingale will make her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut on the show. “The Babe With The Power” is a regular on the American indies with her most high profile work being with ROH, MLW and lately AEW. An interesting note to point out is she will not be the foreign wrestler challenging Maki Itoh for the International Princess Title. Nightingale’s match will instead be announced on a later date.

May as well put it here that the latest issue of the Wrestling Observer reports on discussions to bring Thunder Rosa back to TJPW while she holds the AEW Women’s Title. This follows up on last week’s report on AEW being so impressed with Miyu Yamashita during her entire American excursion that they may want to do Rosa Vs Yamashita for the title somewhere down the road. Rosa herself hasn’t kept it a secret about how much she supports TJPW and wants to go back to Japan (and I think she let slip on one of her vlogs that it will happen sooner rather than later). That would be a big opponent for Itoh because the belt she has was taken away from Rosa two years ago.

GANBARE☆PRO “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA”, 10/07/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Vs Takiawa Army: Kouki Iwasaki & Tyson Maeguchi Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa & 5th Black Tiger

4. Special Single Match: Yuna Manase Vs Sayaka Unagi
5. Special Tag Match ~ CDK Vs ROMANCE DAWN: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Shota & Soma Takao
6. Special Single Match: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Minoru Suzuki
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Ken Ohka

Four figures from the past DNA that helped create Ganbare☆Pro are put together for a beastly tag match. You can trace Ishii, Irie, Kodaka and Shuji Ishikawa back to Ganpro’s predecessor Union Pro.

BASARA “ISAMI KODAKA 20TH ANNIVERSARY”, 18/07/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Lil’ Kraken Vs Raimu Imai
2. 3 Way Jacket Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Gouma Vs Shiori Asahi
3. Takumi Tsukamoto, Yasu Urano & Kengo Mashimo Vs FUMA, Yusuke Kubo & Daichi Kazato
4. Daiki Shimomura, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino Vs Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Masahiro Takanashi
5. Elimination 8-Man Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT, Naoki Tanizaki & Akiyori Takizawa Vs Fuminori Abe, Takuya Nomura, Hideyoshi Kamitani & Kosuke Sato
6. Isami Kodaka Vs Yuko Miyamoto

Kodaka celebrates his 20th Anniversary by taking on the wrestler who probably knows him better than anyone else in the business. Yuko Miyamoto teams on and off with Kodaka as Yankee Two Kenju and is probably the most fitting opponent available for this show.

For the first time in a long time Sparky is together at full power. All four members of the unit will team up to take on a Big Japan flavored team led by Astronauts.

Yusuke Kubo has recovered from his illness and returns to wrestling here. It will be his first match since March.

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

1. Makoto Oishi Return Match: Makoto Oishi Vs X

After one year away with injury, Makoto Oishi returns to the ring! Oishi suffered a back injury last July during a match and had to be stretchered out of the venue. He was diagnosed with a fractured lumbar vertebrae and hadn’t wrestled since. However he was equipped with a back brace and continued working in the background at DDT shows, even finding ways to perform on those shows without having to wrestle.

7. King Of DDT 2022 – Round 1: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yukio Naya with the Brain Claw Slam (18:45).

A new chapter for DDT begins with the King Of DDT opening round going ahead. The newly vacated KO-D Openweight Title goes to the winner so everybody entering the tournament had even more motivation to go out and win. Yukio Naya showed such spirit in the main event. Even though he lost to Kazusada Higuchi, he gave him a fight tougher than anybody expected. Higuchi hit the Doctor Bomb but Naya kicked out at two. It took the Brain Claw Slam of big proportions for Higuchi to win in the end. Higuchi praised his opponent for his strong showing today and promised to carry his spirit along with Tetsuya Endo’s to the final. Higuchi told the fans he will stand at the top of DDT with the KO-D Title and wait for Endo! His 2nd Round opponent Masahiro Takanashi was also amazed with the match.

It was a battle of the Knee Strikes between Jun Akiyama and Yukio Sakaguchi. Both wrestlers inherited their own versions of the move from influential people, Akiyama from Jumbo Tsuruta and Sakaguchi from his father Seiji Sakaguchi. Akiyama took it one step further by pulling down his knee pad so he could fire off some unprotected strikes to his opponent. Sakaguchi kept fighting and kicked out of the Exploder Suplex. But when the Wrist-Clutch Exploder that was it for him. Sakaguchi admitted it was the first time in a long time he felt fear inside the ring.

MAO went overboard with protection for his match against Yuki Iino. He entered the ring wearing a full on hazard suit. He needed it because Iino armed himself with a hose and successfully stuck one end of it into MAO’s mouth while holding him in a Figure Four position. He then stuck the other end into his own back side, causing MAO to give up the match. Iino faces Akiyama in the next round and Akiyama is not happy about it at all.

Things went 50-50 for DAMNATION T.A in the 1st Round. Daisuke Sasaki used a Low Blow to defeat the much larger Yuji Hino but KANON lost clean to Yuki Ueno. Sasaki said he is the one Ueno fears the most. He is probably crying in the locker room thinking about him! Ueno could tell in the ring that KANON is learning from Sasaki. He wants to go beyond KANON, Sasaki and even more so he can become champion.

DISASTER BOX on the other hand had a good first day and are on a collision course with each other. Naomi Yoshimura put away Chris Brookes after some ringside brawling and cheap attempts from Brookes to win. Brookes tied the laces of Yoshimura’s boot to a railing hoping to get him counted out. Yoshimura got a crew member to cut the laces and he proceeded to wrestle the rest of the match in one boot. Takanashi then tried to interfere so Brookes could attack Yoshimura with the DDT Universal Title. Instead Yoshimura blocked Brookes and slammed him with the Harai Goshi to earn the victory.

HARASHIMA didn’t have to worry about any cheating of that kind in his match. Instead he took on Hideki Okatani who was amped up to try and take him down. It was a good effort but the inevitable happened and HARASHIMA won with the Somato. Now HARASHIMA and Yoshimura face each other in Round 2. HARASHIMA wants to know how much stronger Yoshimura has become since their D-Ou Grand Prix 2020 match (that took place at the end of 2019). Yoshimura expects his tag partner to be merciless against him because he is the symbol of DDT.

At the start of the show Makoto Oishi announced he is ready to return to wrestling on the 24th July Korakuen Hall show! He had been out of action for a year with a fractured lumbar vertebrae. Oishi felt jealous of seeing the DDT wrestlers fighting on the big stage at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” and wants to carry the company on his back as much as anyone else.

DDT “AUDIENCE 2022 TOUR IN HIROSHIMA” Results

May 15, 2022

DDT “AUDIENCE 2022 TOUR IN HIROSHIMA”, 15/05/2022
Hiroshima Industrial Hall East Exhibition Hall
195 Fans

6a. Rematch: Yuki Ueno defeated Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno with the BME (0:33).
7. BURNING Vs Eruption!: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada when Higuchi pinned Okatani with the Brain Claw Slam (17:36).

Upcoming trios partners were opponents on today’s show. Kazusada Higuchi is still feeling cold towards Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama and exchanged words with them after the main event. Higuchi got on the microphone and told the fans he can’t really say anything about the “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” match they’re in but he would rather beat the NOAH team using his own power instead of working with the two BURNING wrestler. Higuchi also wants Eruption to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles next week so both can move up. He explained more backstage about why he has tension with Endo & Akiyama. He said if you look at what DDT has done in the last year or two, you would understand why he isn’t thrilled about teaming with them.

This has the two BURNING wrestlers concerned about the tag match against NOAH. If they are not all on the same page then Akiyama thinks the only way they will win is if they target Atsushi Kotoge. Endo is not happy with that idea and will only be satisfied with winning if they can beat Naomichi Marufuji directly. They need to get the message across to Higuchi that this match against NOAH is a rivalry, not a friendly exhibition.

Before Yuki Ueno’s match with Danshoku Dieno began, Dieno walked over to Makoto Oishi and bribed him with some money to go do something over on the stage. He then told Ueno he will beat him in under 10 minutes and demanded their match be held under “Raw Ass Close Call” Sexy Train Rules! Hisaya Imabayashi encouraged Ueno to accept the challenge even though neither of them knew what the rule means. Yuki Iino then walked out on the stage carrying an unconscious Toi Kojima. Iino and Oishi taped Kojima to a chair and then Iino stood on a trolley across the stage with his bare backside pointed towards Kojima. The Sexy Train rule is Oishi will slowly push Iino towards Kojima as the match progresses until his butt meets Kojima’s face at the 10 minute mark! At the eight minute mark of the match, Dieno threatened to pull down the last of his tights causing Imabayashi to stop the match. However Ueno told him that Kojima hates it when things are done halfway so he convinced the GM to restart the match with one minute left. Ueno quickly pinned Dieno with the BME. Unfortunately by the time he got up to the stage to rescue his friend, Iino got his final push and Kojima got his face full of his backside.

Yukio Naya challenged Yuji Hino to a singles match. They’ve been a tag team together for months but their win-loss record is not great. Naya thinks in order to become stronger and start getting the results he wants he will have to fight Hino as well as team with him.

The Chris Brookes Vs Yuki Ishida match was almost like a tag match because Brookes dragged both Daisuke Kiso and Yukinori Matsui into getting physical. Brookes grabbed Kiso for leverage to block Ishida’s moves. He then used Matsui as a shield to take Ishida’s Sumo Slaps. One last disrespectful move was done when Brookes used the Michinoku Driver II (one of MAO’s finishers) to win the match.

DDT “THE WORLD’S BEST ROJO PRO WRESTLING TOURNAMENT ~KING OF STREET WRESTLING~” Results

April 10, 2022

DDT “THE WORLD’S BEST ROJO PRO WRESTLING TOURNAMENT ~KING OF STREET WRESTLING~”, 10/04/2022
WRESTLE UNIVERSE
0 Fans

1. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Kanagawa Big Japan Dojo: Abdullah Kobayashi defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Bakachinga Elbow (13:02).
2. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Kanagawa Enoshima Beach: Hikaru Machida defeated Worawutnoi Keatchaiyong by Knockout with the Iai Punch (R3 1:20).
3. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Tokyo Shibuya Kitaya Park: Shunma Katsumata defeated Suzu Suzuki with the Sauna Trance Splash through the Table (17:18).
4. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Tokyo Shin-Kiba Studio Flamme: Chris Brookes defeated Onryo by Coffin Burial (15:43).

The first King Of Street Wrestling tournament kicked off with four matches in the opening round. Sanshiro Takagi visited the Big Japan dojo for his match against Abdullah Kobayashi. Takagi went looking around for his opponent but found Kosuke Sato instead. He thought Takagi was trespassing but couldn’t stop him from entering the kitchen and looking round the place. Kobayashi finally showed up. He was out grocery shopping and forgot the match was taking place today. To make up for it, Kobayashi offered Takagi a pint glass of raw eggs. Takagi couldn’t drink it while Kobayashi gulped his glass down. He then drank Takagi’s pint for him and the two began their match. It was just as much a tour of a dojo as both wrestlers were looking for weapons. Kobayashi briefly disappeared only to return dressed as Stan Hansen! He chased Takagi outside and Takagi tried to escape on the Dramatic Dream bike. He caught up to him by the river where BJW washes their ring canvas. Kobayashi hit Takagi over the head with a chair, knocking him down onto the canvas. He gave him the Bakachinga Elbow and pinned him right there to advance to the semi-final.

The next match was on a beach where a kickboxer fought a Muay Thai fighter. The kickboxer Hikaru Machida was accompanied by Thanomsak Toba while the Muay Thai fighter Worawutnoi Keatchaiyong had Makoto Oishi cheering him on. Keatchaiyong had the early advantage by clutching onto his opponent in Round 1. Machida broke through his defence in Round 2 with a Sole Butt, causing Keatchaiyong to flee towards a nearby jungle gym. Machida used the gym to swing into Keatchaiyong with a flying kick for more damage. The knockout came in Round 3 when Machida hit Keatchaiyong with the Iai Punch into the water. It was an instant knockout.

The young generation were up next with Shunma Katsumata and Suzu Suzuki fighting each other in Shibuya. Both of them brought weapons out to the public square and weren’t shy about committing violent acts in front of the confused bystanders. They stapled flyers onto each other’s heads, smashed a box of toy blocks to pieces and threw each other into nearby chairs before breaking them over each other’s heads. A ladder was set up next to a table and Katsumata threw Suzuki onto a pile of chairs Death Valley Driver style. He then climbed the ladder and put Suzuki through the table with the Sauna Trance Splash to win the match.

The final match was held in an empty photo studio where Chris Brookes went hunting for the ghost known as Onryo. He entered the venue armed with a proton gun to defend himself with. He was in for a wild ride starting with a masked figure appearing in the balcony to get his attention only for Onryo to attack him from behind. Onryo tried to hang him with a chain but Brookes broke free and attacked him back with the same chain. The two fought up to the rafters where Brookes put Onryo in the Octopus Stretch. Onryo found a cinder block up there and he broke it over Brookes’ stomach. Back down on ground floor, Brookes used a giant fan blowing flower petals to render Onryo’s powder attack useless. Brookes tied Onryo to a wheelchair when suddenly a nearby coffin opened up and Ram Kaichow rose out of it! She gave Brookes a Tornado DDT out of the coffin and began shooting fireworks at him. She freed Onryo but that gave Brookes time to attack her. Onryo dived onto Brookes and fought to throw him into the coffin. He countered the Praying Mantis Bomb with a Back Body Drop onto wooden boards. He then pressed a nearby button and picked up a board rigged to explode! Brookes fought him off, grabbed the board and hit Onryo with the explosion instead. That was enough for Brookes to carry him into the coffin and close it for the knockout victory. Brookes was the winner but he could see through the window lid of the coffin that there was nobody in there! The coffin was empty and the lights began to flash. Brookes ran off as the ghostly figures of Onryo and Kaichow stood behind him and stared.

The King Of Street Wrestling semi-finals will be broadcast on 16th April. Abdullah Kobayashi versus Shunma Katsumata will happen at a bath house in Kanagawa. Chris Brookes versus Hikaru Machida will take place at a campground in Shizuoka.

DDT “ULTIMATE TAG LEAGUE 2022 IN FUKUSHIMA!!” Results

February 23, 2022

DDT “ULTIMATE TAG LEAGUE 2022 IN FUKUSHIMA!!”, 23/02/2022
Will Fukushima
98 Fans

0. Ultimate Tag League 2022 – A Block: Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya (4) defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani (2) by Forfeit.
1. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yuki Ishida with the Brain Claw (10:00).
2. Pheromones Vs DISASTER BOX!: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino Vs Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura ended in a No Contest (13:08).
3. Chris Brookes defeated Yukio Naya with the Death By Roll-Up (12:41).
4. Fukushima Specialty Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Gorgeous Matsuno when Honda pinned Matsuno with a Crushed La Magistral Cradle (13:07).
5. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Yuji Hino & Akito when Sasaki submitted Akito with the Crossface Lock (12:43).
6. BURNING! Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & MAO when Endo pinned Katsumata with the Best Burning Star Press In the Universe (19:27).

A Block

1. Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama (6)
2. Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya (4)
4. Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani (2)
5. Shuji Kondo & Kazuki Hirata (0)

B Block

1. HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura (4)
-. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul (4)
-. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari (4)
4. Shunma Katsumata & MAO (2)
-. Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi (2)

The absence of Konosuke Takeshita was noticeable from both sides in the main event. Tetsuya Endo felt something was different and Jun Akiyama told him The 37KAMIINA come off lukewarm without their main man. Endo still wants to send him a message. He will beat Takeshita at Korakuen Hall and then at Sumo Hall in the next month! Endo also ripped off MAO’s shirt during the match. The shirt was a piece of Gorgeous Matsuno merchandise, MAO’s favourite one in fact. He swore to get revenge on Endo over it.

Matsuno & Yukio Sakaguchi swapped robes for their entrance. It must have been Matsuno’s idea because Sakaguchi didn’t look happy doing it. Matsuno also teased he will form a new unit with him soon, one that will last for a long time. Sakaguchi instantly shot down that idea and refuses having to do it. Matsuno then came up with another idea. He will hold a show in Fukushima celebrating his 20th anniversary in wrestling on 19th September!

Pheromones came up with a creative public execution for Hisaya Imabayashi this time. Makoto Oishi carried in a tiny snowman which was placed on Yuki Iino’s crotch while he was lying down. Danshoku Dieno then gave Imabayashi an Atomic Drop onto the snowman. Afterward they smothered his face and crotch with the snow.
