DDT “DDTEEEEN!!”, 27/10/2021
Shinjuku FACE
102 Fans
1. Raimu Imai & SHINGO defeated Keigo Nakamura & Yuya Koroku when SHINGO submitted Koroku with a Crab Hold (8:28).
2. MAO defeated Daichi Sato with a Diving Body Press (11:04).
3. Yuki Ueno defeated Hideki Okatani with the WR (9:40).
4. Vent Vert Jack defeated You-sei☆Estrella with the Tlaloc (16:49).
5. Ilusion defeated El Unicorn with a Modified Butterfly Wing Lock (22:06).
Welcome the newest DDT brand to the table, DDTeeeen!! It’s a brand to present matches with teenage wrestlers from around the Japanese scene. The first show was built around the first two wrestlers to come from the project, El Unicorn (13 years old) and Ilusion (18 years old). In their debut match Unicorn pinned Ilusion but the opposite result happened when their first singles match took place. Today was the singles rematch. Unicorn hit his big moves like the Quebrada and Modified Double Knee Stomp. He also had the Modified Pedigree scouted and had counters for it. However, Ilusion used a Mexican Ace Crusher and dodged another Moonsault. He finally applied the Modified Pedigree but held on to apply a Butterfly Lock afterwards. Unicorn tried to reach the ropes but gave up in the end.
Ilusion didn’t have much about the match to reflect on. He was so focused on winning that he doesn’t remember what happened other than he won. He will never lose to El Unicorn or any other teenage wrestler out there! This claim drew out Vent Vert Jack. He introduced himself to Ilusion and then challenged him to a match. Ilusion accepted and warned he won’t just beat Jack, he will crush him. Backstage Ilusion was critical of DDTeeeen!! being built around El Unicorn instead of him. Ilusion has beaten him twice now and Unicorn has already gone through an injury. The face of DDTeeeen!! should be “The Phantom Of The Ring” Ilusion!
Vent Vert Jack (16 years old) won his match against You-sei☆Estrella (also 16) in a clash between the two wrestlers from MY WAY in Kyushu. The two showed respect to each other but still fought to win including some big dives from around ringside. Jack won with a Diving Double Knee Drop called the Tlaloc. Both wrestlers thanked DDT for giving their match a big platform.
HEAT-UP also provided some young wrestlers to participate on the show. Daichi Sato (13 years old) went up against MAO in a losing effort. Sato brought the fight with Shoulder Tackles and Middle Kicks. MAO turned the tables with a Knuckle Punch but Yukinori Matsui held him back to remind MAO his opponents is only 13. MAO switched to normal wrestling moves while threatening to show Sato “the fear of adults”. Sato countered the Michinoku Driver and unleashed more Middle Kicks, this time in a more fired up fashion. MAO stopped him with a Palm Strike and pinned him with a Diving Body Press. Sato asked DDT to give him a rematch if there is another DDTeeeen!! show. He will build his body so he won’t lose to the other DDTeeeen!! wrestlers.
The other HEAT-UP wrestlers fared better in the opening match. Raimu Imai (17 years old) & SHINGO beat the DDT team of Keigo Nakamura & Yuya Koroku. Imai used strong Chops and Dropkicks to keep his opponents at bay. SHINGO caught Koroku in a Bearhug and turned it into a Spinebuster. He then performed a Giant Swing and ended the match with a Crab Hold that made Koroku submit. Imai thanked the rest of the HEAT-UP roster for preparing him with secret training for today’s match.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAM TOUR 2021 IN FUJI”, 23/10/2021
Shizuoka Fuji-san Messe
133 Fans
1. Soma Takao & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Yuya Koroku & Yuki Ishida when Takao pinned Ishida with the Diving Foot Stomp (11:17).
2. 3 Way Match: Toru Owashi defeated Antonio Honda and Akito when Owashi pinned Honda with La Magistral Cradle (12:29).
3. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Yuji Hino & Kazuki Hirata when Dieno pinned Hirata with the Danshoku Driver from the Sexy Invader (13:46).
4. Tetsuya Endo & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Chris Brookes & Yukio Naya when Endo pinned Naya with the Shooting Star Press (12:20).
5. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated HARASHIMA & Keigo Nakamura when Paul pinned Nakamura with the Death Valley Bomb (12:49).
6. Junretsu Dissolution Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada, Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani when MAO pinned Watase with the Avalanche Michinoku Driver II (22:41).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Akito defeated HARASHIMA (c) with a School Boy (7:21 pm).
*Akito becomes the 1,519th champion.
Today really is the end of Junretsu. Their final match as a unit brought together all five members with the injured Makoto Oishi working the show as a ring announcer. The unit also entered to “Kimi ga Soba ni Irukara” by the pop band Junretsu. Sadly they fell to The 37KAMIINA in the main event. MAO pulled out an Avalanche version of the Michinoku Driver II on Mizuki Watase to get the victory. After the match, everyone in Junretsu bowed to the audience in every direction. Jun Akiyama encouraged the other members to make the most out of what they learned and move on to new paths. MAO brought up Junretsu beating The 37KAMIINA back at the DRAMATIC SURVIVOR tournament. MAO was the one who got pinned in that match too. Shunma Katsumata didn’t want to end the show on a sad note so he asked Junretsu’s fans to keep supporting them as they begin their next steps.
MJ Paul showed that he is much meaner than Mad Paulie by attacking Keigo Nakamura with a chair. Daisuke Sasaki threw the same chair at HARASHIMA allowing Paul free reign to pin Nakamura with the Death Valley Bomb.
The D-Ou Grand Prix preview today was the tag match featuring Tetsuya Endo, Kazusada Higuchi and Chris Brookes. Higuchi and Brookes are in the same block so they got an early chance to wrestle each other here. Endo pinned Yukio Naya to win. Afterwards Endo & Higuchi told each other they will meet in the D-Ou final.
Soma Takao surprised everyone by shaking hands with his opponents before the opening match.
An autograph session was held after the show and Antonio Honda caused a scene. First he faked a knee injury to attract the attention of HARASHIMA. Then when HARASHIMA walked over to check on him, Honda attempted to roll him up for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. HARASHIMA kicked out but then Akito gave him a School Boy and won the title. HARASHIMA wanted to chase after Akito to get the belt back but Akito told him he couldn’t abandon the autograph session while there were still fans waiting to meet him. HARASHIMA ran back to his table while Akito escaped as the new champion.

*The 37KAMIINA fails in V3. DISASTER BOX becomes the 71st KO-D Tag Team Champions!
There was one message DISASTER BOX wanted the everyone to know after the DRAMATIC SURVIVOR tournament. Never say this unit is done for ever again! The proof of DISASTER BOX’s renewed strength was shown in the main event when HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura won the KO-D Tag Team Titles! The team were at full strength with Yoshimura kicking out of the MADMAX and then HARASHIMA kicking out of the Firebird Splash from Shunma Katsumata. Yoshimura set up 37KAMIINA’s downfall by giving Konosuke Takeshita a Back Drop. HARASHIMA followed up with the Somato to wipe him out of action. Yoshimura then turned his attention to Katsumata and pinned him with the Throwaway Power Bomb.
Yoshimura excitedly shouted “I won!” and passed the microphone over to HARASHIMA. He thanked everyone for supporting them and then thanked Yoshimura for a great performance. Today is proof that DISASTER BOX is still strong and now HARASHIMA is looking forward to fighting Takeshita in the D-Ou Grand Prix. Yoshimura is in a different block but he also told Takeshita to expect a KO-D Openweight Title challenge from him in the future. The rest of DISASTER BOX entered the ring and they all promised to aim for the top in DDT.
Being a babyface is a tough job. Daisuke Sasaki learned that lesson today. His opponent Isami Kodaka entered the ring wearing a Fujita Pro Wrestling School in support of Minoru Fujita as well as Fujita’s Sento Minzoku tail. Fujita was Sasaki’s original challenger for the DDT Universal Title but Fujita fell ill with Covid and currently cannot wrestle. Sasaki’s commitment to being a babyface won through though and he submitted Kodaka with the Crossover Facelock. They hugged and shook hands after the match. Sasaki even said he would like to show up in BASARA if Kodaka ever wants him to.
Sasaki continued his babyface promo until he started stuttering and losing track. He couldn’t do it anymore. He’s no babyface, he’s a crazy guy! He quits being a babyface! DAMNATION was destroyed and he will never forgive the one responsible for breaking the hearts of every DAMNATION fan. Sasaki is forming a new unit called DAMNATION T.A. (Total Addiction)! He called down Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao to the ring but when Takao rolled in, Sasaki immediately Super Kicked him. Sasaki doesn’t want any of them because they’re the ones responsible for DAMNATION’s demise! Takao fought back but got a Low Blow from Sasaki. Then Mad Paulie, or somebody who resembles Mad Paulie came out and floored Takao with a Lariat. Sasaki introduced everyone to the new Paulie he found deep in the forests of Nerima. It’s the cruel slaughter machine MJ Paul (The MJ stands for Murder Junky)! Sasaki promised that DAMNATION T.A. will bring destruction and chaos from here on out! Backstage Takao swore revenge on the two of them.
The D-Ou Grand Prix preview match went off to an awkward start with Endo and Yuji Hino beginning the match against each other. Endo would attempt to put Hino in a Torture Rack but couldn’t pull it off. Yuki Ueno & MAO worked together in an effort to break down Kazusada Higuchi. Ueno was taken care of with a dive from Chris Brookes. Back in the ring, MAO got on Higuchi’s nerves and tried to tangle him up in pinning holds. That ended with Higuchi catching MAO with a Lariat and pinning him with the Brain Claw Slam. After the match Endo said he will win the Grand Prix and he will also beat Hino with the Torture Rack Bomb on 3rd November. Hino replied they are enemies now that DAMNATION is gone and he will beat Endo with the Fuckin’ BOMB instead. Higuchi, Brookes and Ueno also staked their claim to win the tournament. MAO too but he collapsed while he gave his speech since he was still feeling beaten up.
The Pheromones match went to another no contest. Not even Sanshiro Takagi bringing out the kettlebell that injured him made much of a difference. Toru Owashi made a brave stand to protect Takao but Phermones easily ignored him and attacked Takao anyway. Dansoku Dieno grabbed Takao’s steel basin and dropped it on Takagi’s head, sending him to the back to get aid. Dieno & Yuki Iino then set up a Double Hell Gate in the corner. Yumehito Imanari grabbed one of the TV cameras and threatened to get a close up on the Double Hell Gate when a furious Hisaya Imabayashi called off the match.
Pheromones grabbed Imabayashi and threw him into Iino’s backside. Takagi returned afterwards with Yusuke Okada by his side. They held out handcuffs and told Pheromones what they are doing on a live broadcast is a crime. Takagi has formed a team of ex-cops to beat Pheromones on 3rd November. It will be him, Okada and Shinya Aoki teaming together! A still bloody Aoki (more on that below) came out and said Pheromones are getting carried away. Dieno defended his side by explaining it is up to professionals like them to turn crime into entertainment! Pheromones will take you to a world you’ve never seen before!
Aoki ended up in a bloody state because Yumiko Hotta beat him up good. The DDT Extreme Title match between them was under normal pro wrestling rules but Hotta attacked Aoki with a chair kept throwing him into the security fence around ringside until she was disqualified. Hotta got on the microphone and said she is just doing her style of AJW pro wrestling and demanded a restart. Aoki agreed and the match was no No DQ but for Hotta only. This time Hotta attacked Aoki with a steel chain but when she went for the Pyramid Bomb, Aoki countered it into an Armlock to make her tap out. A brawl broke out after the match and the two of them had to be separated.
The KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles match was the first time meeting between Yoshiaki Yatsu and Jun Akiyama. Also both Team Olympian and Junretsu made claims to disband if their team lost so the match was high stakes even without the titles involved. Hiroshi Yamato did the better against Hideki Okatani by hitting him with the Cross Chop. Junretsu took control by isolating Keigo Nakamura. The tables turned when Yatsu gave Okada the Yatsugoye/Iron Knee. Junretsu regained control and hit a combination of attacks on Akito ending with Mizuki Watase in the ring with him. Akito rolled him up with the Airplane Throw to get the three count out of nowhere.
Kazuki Hirata approached Team Olympian after the match with Yoshihiko, Owashi and Antonio Honda all by his side. Hirata asked the fans if they liked his match against Yoshihiko earlier and if they should team together? In order to make this potential team come to life they need a championship so they want the 8-Man Tag Belts with Owashi & Honda! Yatsu agreed and the match will take place in Ota Ward Gymnasium on 3rd November.
But what about Junretsu? They have to live up to their promise and disband because they didn’t win the belts. Makoto Oishi confirmed it but asked if the unit could have one more match so they can leave on happier terms. Okada suggested if they win this match then Junretsu can continue. Oishi said Junretsu and The 37KAMIINA have a 6-Man Tag match in Fuji later this month. They can turn it into an 8-Man Tag and he will be there as the ring announcer so the entire Junretsu unit will all be in the same place. Okada & Okatani liked the idea but Watase was silent throughout the entire team talk.
The debuting Yuki Ishida brought the fight to Higuchi in the sumo versus sumo matchup. Higuchi stood his ground against Ishida’s attacks until the rookie threw Sumo Slaps at him into the corner. He followed up with Corner Splashes and a Sitout Spinebuster for a nearfall. Higuchi took over with a Lariat and the Oklahoma Stampede then pinned him with a Choke Slam. Higuchi shook his hand after the match. Ishida said he wants to devote himself to becoming a pro wrestler so he can some day overtake Higuchi. He also wants to be unique with his sumo style, aiming to be as strong as Kensuke Sasaki but with the speed of El Lindaman, who is closer to his size.
Three Dark Matches extended the show’s full length. Riko Kawahata made her DDT debut entering the ring with an energetic dance. She did well against Saki Akai but her big mistake was doing a Moonsault. Akai blocked it with her knees. Kawabata still had her wits about to dodge the Rookie Award but Akai followed up with a Buzzsaw Kick and applied a Triangle Choke to make her submit. Akai told Kawahata she got to understand AJW-ism from her but she was born and raised in DDT. She wants the two of them to carry their different legacies and do their best for each other from now on.
The bad blood between Hirata and Yoshihiko is now all water under the bridge. They settled their score in a singles match where Yoshihiko came out on top. The doll targeted Hirata’s arm before going for its tried and tested Reincarnation. Hirata tried to do the Viagra Driver but Yoshihiko countered it into the Reincarnation again. Hirata kicked out but his momentum was turned against him as he rolled right into an Arm Lock. Hirata gave up but swallowed his pride and shook Yoshihiko’s hand after the match. The two left the ring together shoulder to shoulder.
The trio representing ChocoPro made their promotion proud with a win in the very first match of the day. When Yuko Naya blocked Honda’s Gongitsune, Baliyan Akki lifted Masahiro Takanashi onto his shoulders to reach out and poke Naya in the eyes with his own Gongitsune. The others kept Naya & Gota Ihashi at bay while Akki pinned Yuya Koroku with the Namaste Press.
The Rojo Pro Wrestling show at the Tokyo Dome on 31st October now has a prize attached to it. The winners of the DDT TOKYO DOME CUP will receive 5,000,000 yen. Five teams will enter and two have been announced. The 37KAMIINA are the first team. The second team consists of Chris Brookes, The Brahman Brothers & Gorgeous Matsuno.
Atsushi Onita returns to DDT on 18th December in Nagoya for a Current Blast Death Match.
In 2022 DDT will hold shows at Shinjuku FACE with 0 yen ticket prices once a month for the entire year. This is part of DDT’s 25th Anniversary celebrations.

The D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 already happened at the end of last year. From 2019-2021 DDT held a big arena show early in the year which did not give them much time to organize a round robin tournament to determine who gets a KO-D Openweight Title shot at said show. The solution they came up with was to hold the Grand Prix during the previous winter, giving them ample time to get their plans together. That is how they ended up with the annual sports game franchise naming convention. So to synchronize the tournament name back to the right year, DDT is doing the 2021 Grand Prix again. It’s time for D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II! Both blocks have six wrestlers and the winner of each block advances to the final. 2 points for a win, 1 points for a draw and 0 points for a loss. Block matches have a 30 minute time limit and the final has no time limit.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) defeated Chris Brookes with the Plus Ultra (29:51).
*V1 for Konosuke Takeshita.
The weeks leading up to today’s KO-D Openweight Title match was built around whether or not Konosuke Takeshita could beat Chris Brookes with the Plus Ultra. But first a lot of big bombs were dropped in and out the ring to get there. Takeshita did an Avalanche Power Bomb. Brookes fought back with the Praying Mantis Bomb and the Octopus Stretch. Takeshita stayed in the hold but was still able to stand up and climb the turnbuckles again, this time with Brookes on his back. Brookes turned it into his advantage and he did an Avalanche Crucifix Driver. He went for the Praying Mantis Bomb once more but Takeshita did his best to avoid it. Some Lariats from the champion took their toll and Brookes was soon bleeding from the mouth. He kept kicking out of pins so Takeshita finally put him in the Plus Ultra and got him to give up.
After the match Takeshita revealed that Brookes once said he doesn’t have any friends in Japan. Takeshita wants Brookes to take a look and see that he has made many friends in DDT and ChocoPro. In fact, Takeshita even calls Brookes his best friend! He thanked him for coming to Japan and for choosing DDT. After the two hugged, Takeshita said he was happy to have a main event like this in front of a sold out Korakuen Hall. There are still many empty seats because of social distancing but he is sure the day will come in the future when all of them are full again for a DDT show. Backstage Takeshita said next year will be his 10th year in wrestling. He will fight for the next 10 years to give back everything that he’s gotten over the last decade. In regards to his friendship with Brookes, they are two wrestlers who are enthusiastic wrestling fans. Takeshita thinks he can be seen as the Japanese Chris Brookes while Brookes can be seen as the British Takeshita.
It was time to say farewell to DAMNATION. The unit had been around since 2016 but is now forced to go their separate ways after losing the DRAMATIC SURVIVOR tournament earlier this month. The majority of the unit’s members gathered together for the final match. Hiroshi Yamato wasn’t here but recorded a message to be included in the pre-match video. The match itself wasn’t friendly with Shuji Ishikawa & Soma Takao both holding Daisuke Sasaki responsible for the split. They took their frustration out on him whenever he was in the ring while Yuji Hino got illegally involved outside the ring at certain points. However Sasaki had Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie to back him up and with their help Sasaki got the last laugh in the end by submitting Nobuhiro Shimatani. DAMNATION all got together after the match and Sasaki thanked the fans for following them over the last 5 years. All that was left to do is let DAMNATION perform karaoke one final time. Ishikawa then sang “Choo Choo TRAIN” by EXILE while Hino filmed everyone dancing. Sasaki stopped Ishikawa’s singing to remind everyone “We don’t conform, we don’t kiss ass and we don’t get married!” DAMNATION, forever!
The forbidden tag team has been put together! Jun Akiyama and Yoshihiko teamed together for the first time ever to beat HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata. It was a big deal but something Akiyama wasn’t 100% comfortable with. His only worry was if today’s special guest Riki Choshu was still in the building while the match went on. As long as Choshu didn’t see what Akiyama did today then everything’s ok! Akiyama & Yoshihiko performed stereo Exploder Suplexes before Yoshihiko pinned Hirata with the Reincarnation. Akiyama made sure once more that Choshu wasn’t around and said he had a lot of fun today.
The return of Masahiro Takanashi to DDT wasn’t the most glamourous of occasions. He was thrown right back into the wacky side of the company. He was also thrown right back into Danshoku Dieno’s backside but we’re getting ahead of things. Naomi Yoshimura wanted to beat up Takanashi because there isn’t enough room for two “orange” wrestlers in DDT. Even Saki Akai wasn’t shy in kicking Takanashi a little harder than she usually would. Toru Owashi didn’t even do much to protect him either. Takanashi almost had Antonio Honda set up for the Takatonic but he ended up getting a face-full of Dieno as mentioned above. Honda then gave Takanashi the TTD and got the three count with the Diving Fist Drop. A group photo was taken after the match with Yukio Sakaguchi joining it.
The Record Of Ragnarok pitted Gods against Humanity while Choshu watched from the commentary booth. The Humanity team were led to the ring by Brynhildr (played by Haruna Iikubo) but they quickly learned they were no match against the Gods led by Daisuke Sekimoto. One by one Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO were picked apart by Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Naya & Akito. In one final desperate move, Brynhildr called forth the very first human Adam! Nakamura reappeared dressed as “Adam” but Sekimoto destroyed him to leave the Gods victorious. When the dust settled, Choshu & Brynhildr promoted the Record Of Ragnarok anime and stage show. Choshu said he wished he could have done a wrestling match like this in his era, especially against somebody like Sekimoto. Choshu also said if God really did want to destroy the human race then he would fight him!
The growing power of Pheromones was too much for Yusuke Okada & Hideki Okatani to handle. Yuki Iino has found a way to do a sexy version of the Lariat to make it a stronger move. This match aired live on DDT’s Youtube channel so Sanshiro Takagi was concerned the channel was about to get banned thanks to the lewd antics of Iino & Yumehito Imanari. Takagi decided it is up to him and Okada to stop Pheromones from damaging DDT any further. He booked himself, Okada and a third partner to face Pheromones at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 3rd November. Not only that but the match will be for the vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles! Dieno accepted on the condition that if Pheromones wins then Takagi must let them continue doing whatever they want, even if it destroys DDT. Takagi promised he will beat them and break them up before that happens. Dieno then quipped that Takagi likes to break things up lately.
The two pre-show matches were also aired on Youtube in an attempt by DDT to add more importance to the earlier half of the show. One of the matches had Takagi team up with joshi legend Yumiko Hotta to defeat Shinya Aoki & Mizuki Watase. The result saw Hotta strike Aoki with a steel chain before pinning him with the Pyramid Driver. Hotta then challenged Aoki for the DDT Extreme Title. Aoki wants the match to take place at the RIZIN show on 2nd October but it will instead happen in DDT on 12th October.
The other pre-show match was an Exhibition bout for Yuki Ishida. The rookie will properly debut on 12th October and he got five minutes in the ring with Yuya Koroku to prepare for it. Ishida got to hit a big Jumping Shoulder attack and put Koroku in a Crab Hold. Koroku got a rope break and he held Ishida in a Cross Armbreaker until the time expired.
Yukio Sakaguchi appeared at the start of the show to talk about his back injury. He placed both his jacket and his Eruption robe onto the top rope before apologizing for being unable to wrestle today. He will be away from the ring for a while but when he comes back he will be wearing those outfits hanging over the rope again.
Takagi and Hotta had their post-match interview backstage interrupted. Riko Kawahata, who wrestles for Hotta’s T-HEARTS promotion approached Takagi asking if she could wrestle at the 12th October DDT show. Hotta was insulted to see Kawabata act out of turn and directly ask Takagi this way. She grabbed her out of anger but Takagi calmed things down and told Kawabata he will think about it.
The two blocks for the D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II were both revealed during the show. Block A has Jun Akiyama, Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Ueno, Naomi Yoshimura, Yuji Hino and Bodyguard. Block B consists of Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA, Kazusada Higuchi, MAO, Chris Brookes and Yuji Okabayashi. Daisuke Sasaki was offered a spot in the tournament but he declined to participate.
2022 will be DDT’s 25th Anniversary so a project is being put together to celebrate it. The theme of this project is a “Dramatic Dream Tour” through the past, present and future of DDT. The “Past” is the Dramatic Dream Bout TOP 25 and Dramatic Dream Hall Of Fame TOP 25 where fans get to choose their favourite matches and wrestlers from DDT’s history.
The “Future” is the official debut of the DDT Teenage Project sub brand. It is renamed DDTeeeen!! and the first show is taking place in Shinjuku FACE on 17th October.
And then there is the “Present”. DDT will hold its 25th Anniversary show at Sumo Hall on 20th March, 2022! It will be the first time DDT is back in Ryogoku in three years.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION -ULTRA PLEASURE STYLE 2021”, 25/09/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
396 Fans
1. Shu Sakurai Last Match Before His Closure: Rocky Kawamura 2, Nobuhiro Shimatani & Itsuki Aoki defeated Katsuzaki Shunosuke, Moehiko Harumisawa & Shu Sakurai when Shimatani submitted Sakurai with the Modified Camel Clutch (8:04).
2. Ganjo Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Asuka, Makoto & HARUKAZE defeated Yuna Manase, Yuna Mizumori & YuuRI when HARUKAZE pinned YuuRI with the Fire Spear (12:35).
3. Ganpro Special Tag Match: Tatsuhito Takaiwa & MAO defeated Yumehito Imanari & Kouki Iwasaki when Takaiwa pinned Imanari with the Death Valley Bomb (12:54).
4. IJ Tag Team Titles: Kenichiro Arai & Shota (c) defeated Hagane Shinno & Shinichiro Tominaga when Shota pinned Tominaga with a Casadora (12:17).
*V2 for Hattoshite Good Daga.
5. Ganpro Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii defeated Shigehiro Irie with the Kneel Kick (18:16).
6. Ken Ohka 20th Anniversary Special Tag Match ~Roar Of The Lion King~: HARASHIMA & Kengo Mashimo defeated Ken Ohka & Isami Kodaka when HARASHIMA pinned Ohka with the Somato (18:23).
Twenty years in the business for Ken Ohka has made him a lot of friends and acquaintances. To celebrate he teamed with the wrestler who was once labelled as his replacement in Union Pro. Back then Kengo Mashimo was marketed as Kengo Ohka on Union shows. Their opponents were HARASHIMA, who teamed with Ohka for his most famous match, and Isami Kodaka who Ohka grew up with in their Union days. Kodaka and Mashimo also hold a grudge with each other to add some spiciness to the match. Ohka got to shine by Double German Suplexing HARASHIMA and Kodaka. He then exchanged elbows with HARASHIMA and HARASHIMA took the time to congratulate him on the anniversary inbetween the strikes. Ohka got the upper hand and pulled out a Dragon Suplex out of nowhere. But when he charged in for the Fire Spear, HARASHIMA blocked it with the Somato and then hit a second one to win the match.
After the match HARASHIMA said he was smiling from start to finish. Kodaka and Mashimo gave each other the middle finger until Ohka talked to them. Ohka said Mashimo is like his fourth son or his half-brother because he used to be Kengo Ohka. Kodaka admitted to Ohka that he overslept today and only arrived at the venue at 1pm. The show started at 11:30am. Ohka thanked all of them for coming to Ganbare☆Pro today. To him it doesn’t matter what company they work for, they can be double or triple affiliated with Ganpro for as long as they are pro wrestlers! The show ended with Ohka celebrating with the Ganpro roster in the ring. Shota tried to sneak roll up HARASHIMA for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title during this but failed to pull it off.
The Keisuke Ishii Vs Shigehiro Irie match turned out to be a full Team Dream Futures reunion when Soma Takao was spotted in the audience at the start of the bout. Irie also had Mizuki Watase in his corner to provide some RENEGADES presence. Ishii kicked out of the Beast Bomber and hit Irie with the Kneel Kick to the back of the head. Ishii then hit the Double Arm DDT before doing one more Kneel Kick to win. The two shook hands afterwards while Takao left the room. This is the first time Ishii has beaten Irie one on one in ten years! He put his victory down to honing the Kneel Kick for 13 years.
To ensure that the IJ Tag Team Titles match was fought under PWF Rules, Ayana Shimada from Tenryu Project was at ringside to oversee the match. Both champions and challengers aren’t familiar with the rules only found out about the differences while they wrestled. Things like rope breaks not being strict and 10 counts outside the ring threw the wrestlers off but they adapted in the end. At one point Kenichiro Arai used the ropes to add leverage to Shota pinning Shinichiro Tominaga but Hagane Shinno broke it up by diving onto Arai on the ring apron. Shota ended up stealing the win anyway by rolling Tominaga up with a Casadora.
Yumehito Imanari was excited to find out Shuichi Nishinaga from NOAH was the referee for his match. He & Kouki Iwasaki worked over on Tatsuhito Takaiwa but MAO was there to help his tag partner. Takaiwa took control and pinned Imanari with the Death Valley Bomb. He noticed that Ganpro has changed a lot since the last time he wrestled for them. MAO said it was a fresh feeling wrestling in Ganpro for the first time. He also got some tips from Takaiwa on how to improve the Michinoku Driver.
The current state of Ganbare☆Joshi shows HARUKAZE is making the kind of progress she’s been looking for while the newcomer YuuRI is struggling to find a win. HARUKAZE had a confrontation with Yuna Manase after the match but found herself being praised by Asuka & Makoto. Backstage Manase & Yuna Mizumori consoled YuuRI and don’t blame her for their team losing today. Over on the other side Asuka said she wasn’t satisfied with the match because she thinks GanJo is too weak for her. However she tells HARUKAZE to continue doing her best there.
Today was the last match of Shu Sakurai’s wrestling career, at least for now. He and the rest of THE HALFEE performed “Starry Sky Distance” for their entrance before wrestling Rocky Kawamura 2, Nobuhiro Shimatani & Itsuki Aoki. Sadly for Sakurai his last match ended in defeat with Shimatani making him tap out. Sakurai wants to remind everyone this isn’t a retirement and he will come back some day. His decision to leave is for positive reasons and he hopes to learn and grow as a person while he is away. Shuichiro Katsumura & Moeka Haruhi suggested they all reunite in 47 years because THE ALFEE (the band they parody) are celebrating their 47th anniversary this year.
Some important announcements related to the Ganbare☆Climax were given during the show. First, the tournament is being sponsored by LEC. And second, the winner of the Ganbare☆Climax will be crowned the first Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion! The president of LEC Takaki Nagamori showed off the new championship belt and talked about LEC sponsoring various pro wrestling events from the G1 Climax to the Ganbare☆Climax.
The wrestlers entering the Ganbare☆Climax 2021 are Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari, Keisuke Ishii, Shuichiro Katsumura, Shota, Shinichiro Tominaga, Kouki Iwasaki, Baliyan Akki, Nobuhiro Shimatani, Mizuki Watase, Seiya Morohashi, Tetsuhiro Kuroda, Tatsuhito Takaiwa and kickboxer Tyson Maeguchi. The tournament begins on 24th October and the final to crown the champion will take place on 23rd November.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP? 2021 TOUR IN OSAKA”, 05/09/2021
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall
120 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Naomi Yoshimura & Keigo Nakamura defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Yuya Koroku when Nakamura pinned Koroku with a Diving Headbutt (12:30).
2. DDT Megatonweight Single Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino defeated Mad Paulie with the Badonkadonk (7:46).
3. Akito, Mizuki Watase & Yukio Naya defeated HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Akito submitted Hirata with the Back Foot Figure 4 Leg Lock (0:10).
3a. Rematch: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Akito, Mizuki Watase & Yukio Naya when HARASHIMA pinned Watase with the Somato (10:57).
4. DAMNATION Vs Junretsu!: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao defeated Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Hideki Okatani when Takao pinned Okatani with the Perfect Driver (12:20).
5. Special Single Match: Shunma Katsumata Vs Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno ended in a No Contest (8:44).
6. Osaka Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Kazusada Higuchi when Takeshita submitted Honda with the Plus Ultra (25:10).
More focus was put on the Plus Ultra today. Konosuke Takeshita tried to put Chris Brookes in the hold early but couldn’t pull it off. Brookes & Kazusada Higuchi followed Antonio Honda’s lead by tripping over the ropes and injuring their knees. It was all to set up a Triple Gongitsune spot. Yuki Ueno & MAO got rid of Brookes & Higuchi. Honda tried to fight off Takeshita with Knuckle Punches but Takeshita hit him with the Zahi knee strike and made him submit to the Plus Ultra. Takeshita said he was happy to wrestle in his hometown as a champion and he will return next time still as the champion.
The Pheromones team are getting out of control. Danshoku Dieno’s match with Shunma Katsumata already started off crazy when Katsumata tied Dieno’s feet together with tape outside the ring in a bid to have him counted out. Dieno got back in but Katsumata then taped his mouth shut to prevent the Lip Lock. Katsumata was about to hit the Firebird Splash when music suddenly began playing and Yuki Iino appeared on the balcony performing a strip tease to distract him. Dieno removed his tap but every time he attempted the Lip Lock, he was misdirected into Yukinori Matsui, knocking the referee out. With Matsui out of action the match has to be called off. Pheromones continued their attack on Katsumata, giving him a Double Danshoku Driver. The 37KAMIINA ran in to rescue their friend and Pheromones escaped. Katsumata remained in an unconscious state for the rest of the show.
Pheromones also interfered in Iino’s match against Mad Paulie. Dieno gave Paulie the Lip Lock when the ref was distracted. He then charged himself up by pressing his own face into Iino’s backside before giving Paulie another Lip Lock. This form of the move is called the Earth Kiss.
Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada Vs Magnitude Kishiwada & Inabi no Buffalo is booked for Matsui’s show on 17th October.

DDT “DRAMATIC SURVIVOR 2021”, 04/09/2021
Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall
220 Fans

2. DRAMATIC SURVIVOR ~ Losers Advance 8-Man Tag Tournament – Round 1: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuji Hino when Hirata pinned Takao with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (12:25).

6. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Yukio Sakaguchi by Referee Stoppage with the Modified Ground Octopus Stretch (14:55).
7. DRAMATIC SURVIVOR ~ Losers Advance 8-Man Tag Tournament – Decision Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuji Hino when Ueno pinned Sasaki with the WR (22:16).
*DAMNATION are forced to disband. Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuji Hino vacate the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles.
It’s all over for DAMNATION. After over five years as a powerful force in DDT, the unit is now forced to disband after becoming the ultimate losers of the first ever DRAMATIC SURVIVOR tournament. The “final” came down to DAMNATION against The 37KAMIINA. Both units have tag team champions within them so a championship was also guaranteed to be vacated due to the rules of the tournament. MAO was the immediate target for DAMNATION because he was the one pinned in 37KAMIINA’s earlier match and was identified as the weak point. He had a chance to end the match with the Hollywood Star Press but Soma Takao moved out of the way. DAMNATION then switched over to Shunma Katsumata after Daisuke Sasaki hit him with the DAMNATION signboard. Katsumata held on and turned the tables with Konosuke Takeshita’s help. Tetsuya Endo was almost pinned but he tagged out to Yuji Hino to carry the load. The match came down to Sasaki and Yuki Ueno fighting for survival. Endo tried to help by doing the Springboard Overhead Kick but Ueno dodged it and Sasaki got kicked instead! The 37KAMIINA ganged up on Sasaki while keeping the rest of DAMNATION away. They hit the MADMAX and Ueno followed up with the BME but Hino broke the count. Another clearing of the ring allowed Ueno to give Sasaki the WR and win the match, killing off DAMNATION in the process.
The result means Ueno gets some measure of revenge on Sasaki over what happened at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2021”. Ueno said The 37KAMIINA couldn’t be defeated in the end because everyone in the group has evolved. Sasaki said DAMNATION was going to break up in 2025 anyway so they will wait until then to officially do it. Hisaya Imabayashi then immediately corrected Sasaki and said DAMNATION’s final match will happen on 26th September. Also Endo, Takao & Hino now have to forfeit the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. Ueno closed out the show by saying The 37KAMIINA will continue to be brighter, happier and hotter that anyone else in DDT!
Backstage MAO apologized for always needing to be saved by the others. Katsumata assured him it is no one’s fault and the power of all four combined is why they won. That cheered MAO up and made him want to run over Sanshiro Takagi with a car because this entire tournament was his idea in the first place. MAO also wonders what Endo will become now he will be on his own. He wants to reach out to his fellow countryman but Takeshita does not. The mood was bad over in DAMNATION. Mad Paulie cried, Takao doesn’t know what to do, Sasaki kind of blamed Endo but swore revenge on Ueno, Hino blamed Takao, Endo calmed everyone down and then Sasaki finally took responsibility for what happened. Even Sanshiro Takagi admits that losing DAMNATION will hurt DDT because they were a popular unit. But Takagi doesn’t want DDT to be stuck in a rut so a shakeup like this was necessary. If something bad happens because of this, he will take care of it.
In the earlier round, DISASTER BOX and Junretsu defied expectations and both won their survival early. DISASTER BOX were the favourites to disband so they threw everyone for a loop from the get go. Kazuki Hirata pulled off the miracle by cradling Takao for the three count. HARASHIMA was relieved with the result and gave Hirata credit for doing his best. Toru Owashi admitted to feeling despair when the match came down to only him and Hirata against DAMNATION. Naomi Yoshimura saw the funny side and called Hirata the main character of today’s show. Hirata said everyone in DISASTER BOX loves being here because the unit gives them all a home to go back to. Everyone then wished Hirata luck in going after the DDT Extreme Title next weekend.
Junretsu were safe after a good moment of timing. MAO had Yusuke Okada beaten with the Michinoku Driver II until Jun Akiyama rushed in and hit MAO with the Running Knee Butt. Okada then rolled MAO over and scored the three count for the win. Mizuki Watase said their unit was able to win because they have the best bond and unity in the world. He is now confident that Junretsu can become the KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Champions. The rest of the unit aren’t as enthusiastic about the idea but Makoto Oishi thinks the only reason they won today was to avoid splitting up. So maybe they can win the 8-Man Tag Titles if they have to risk disbanding the unit again. Akiyama told the other four to go do that because he would rather team with Yoshihiko.
Chris Brookes is working on his submission game to keep Takeshita on his toes. He used a grounded version of the Octopus Hold to beat Yukio Sakaguchi by TKO. What’s remarkable is Sakaguchi attempted to use the Plus Ultra hold that Takeshita created but Brookes countered it into the Octopus Hold. However Brookes is expecting Takeshita to study this match in preparation for the KO-D Openweight Title bout and will learn how to avoid that counter. He knows he can’t reveal his full hand before then.
The Badonkadonk used by Yuki Iino is a Banzai Drop but with most of Iino’s clothing missing. After Pheromones won their match, Danshoku Dieno teased that the team will soon get a third member. They can sniff this mystery wrestler’s presence in the air but think now is not the time to identify who it is.
DDT will return to Nagoya Congress Center on 18th December.

The latest adventures of Hiragana Muscle began with a PowerPoint presentation from Super Sasadango Machine. It was called “What Is Public Awareness?” and he talked about his struggles to make Muscle famous around the world. His hopes for 2.9 Dimensional Pro Wrestling catching on fell on deaf ears and his mood got worse when he found out Super Delfin is successfully putting together a similar idea with his own musical pro wrestling show. To solve this problem, today’s special guest is famous voice actor Tetsu Inada. The idea already paid off with evidence of The Great O-Kharn allegedly tweeting about the show.
Inada narrated the story while the producers Yuki Rock and Minamikawa introduced everyone to the show. Amon Tsurumi then came out and gave a huge announcement. A big sports festival is taking place today and they’re hosting it! This event only happens every 40 years because of the toll it takes on the athletes taking part. The opening ceremony began with a speech from Yuriko Koikebukuro, who looks like the Governor Of Tokyo. Rock got bored and started arguing with Koikebukuro. Each of the producers were then fired because Rock implied he has taken illegal drugs, Minamikawa previously made inappropriate TV shows and Tsurumi was caught looking at porn on the company laptop. The producers all swore revenge.
Meanwhile The Finisher Boys were busy training when they found out about the sports festival. Most countries declined to participant due to the pandemic leaving only three teams. The Finisher Boys will be there representing the United States Of Finish. Their enemies The Steel Chair Boys from the Federal Republic Of Isubekistan will also compete. Last but not least is the Republic Of Creatord Tobago consisting of all the creative types. The Finisher Boys had the least members on a team until a trainee named Secondotti Tetsuji (played by Inada) approached them asking to join. They accepted him but only when he said everybody in DDT are his favourite wrestlers.
Suddenly, The Steel Chair Boys entered the scene. Shota challenged The Finisher Boys to a fight in the form of pictograms. They easily defeated him but it was all a distraction so The Steel Chair Boys could kidnap Tetsuji! If our heroes want to rescue him, they need to win the sports festival! Luckily for Tetsuji he is being played by a famous voice actor so the villains actually took good care of him while he was captive.
It was time for the festival to begin. Every team would take part in several rounds of Pro Wrestling “Kata” against each other. Each participant would perform no contact pro wrestling against an invisible opponent and fans would vote for the best performance. The master of ceremonies Danshoku Dieno oversaw the proceedings and would give the deciding vote if any audience poll ended in a tie. In the Singles Match Section, Yuki Ueno won the vote with his rendition of a midcarder wrestling in the second match of the third show during a tour outside of Tokyo. It beat Kazusada Higuchi’s performance of a heavyweight double down spot and DJ Nira doing the standard opening moments of a wrestling match.
Round 2 was in the Tag Team Section. Yuki Rock & Minamikawa performed the Tetsuya Naito & SANADA tag team. Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata choreographed a tag team style that will become popular in the American indies some day in the future. But the winners were Choun-Shiryu & Shota Okamura who bounced around the ring as if they were getting beaten up by Strong BJ.
Round 3 was fittingly the 3 Way Match Section. Akito, MAO and Amon Tsurumi worked together to tell the story of a 3 Way Match that has a complete amateur also involved. Tsurumi was that amateur but he tricked Kinya & Mao into linking their arms together while back to back. He then pushed both of them over upside down onto their shoulders for a double pin. That won him the support of the crowd, tying the medals table at one victory a piece.
It all came down to the final round. The Backstage Comment Section. The remaining participants from each of the teams went backstage and gave post-match interviews for famous moments in wrestling. Hondusty Rhodes did a promo based on the aftermath of Wrestlemania III. Next was Kazuki Hirata throwing a chair around like a mentor pushing around his student. Finally Naomi Yoshimura, Mizuki Watase & Yumehito Imanari did a reenactment of Tatsumi Fujinami’s “Dragon Revolution”. It’s a famous scene where Fujinami confronted Antonio Inoki for not stepping aside and letting his generation step up. Watase committed to the bit and cut off bits of his hair just like Fujinami did. It was worth it because that won his team the gold!
The sports festival ended and the next scene was Sasadango recording his radio show with Inada. Things took a turn when Inada realised this is a wrestling show and he has a chance to live out his dream of becoming a pro wrestler. Sasadango refused because he doesn’t want to deal with any trouble caused if Inada gets hurt. RAM RIDER came up with a solution. They can do a Remote Pro Wrestling match with Inada shouting out orders to his team of wrestlers. Inada and Sasadango agreed to it and they went down to the ring.
The match itself is 5 Vs 5 with Inada coaching The Steel Chair Boys while Sasadango ordered around The Finisher Boys. Things went south when Sasadango was hit over the head several times with chairs. He needed to be replaced so Haruo Murata took his spot. The Steel Chair Boys continued to dominate under Inada’s commands until Tetsuya Endo made his mandatory run in and cleared the ring. He then gave a motivating speech to Murata before leaving. Inada and Murata then spoke to each other about each of them living their dreams. They both agreed it was time for them to wrestle! They begun their match when suddenly, Shota ran in with a chair ready to attack Murata. Inada stopped Shota with a Lariat and, with the help of everyone else, delivered the Last Ride to win the match!
Inada and Murata embraced after the match. Inada then received the gold medal from Yuriko Koikebukuro. The show ended with Inada talking about his love for pro wrestling. He also wished both Tsurumi and Yuki Ueno a happy birthday.
