The TJPW debut of Janai Kai has her teaming with Hikari Noa.

Either Wakana Uehara or HIMAWARI will get their first singles win. Unless a draw somehow happens.

Juria Nagano will not be on the show because of a left finger injury.

DDT “DDT YOKOHAMA UNLIMITED VOL. 1”, 11/02/2023
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall

8. Special Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Makoto Oishi Vs HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya

Higuchi invited an close friend of his to join Harimao and bolster up the unit while Naomi Yoshimura is out injured. Ryota Nakatsu from BASARA was Higuchi’s rival in DNA and is more than happy to give Harimao some reinforcement. He also doesn’t want people to think he is only filling in for Yoshimura because he is a fully fledged fourth member of the stable. Meanwhile DAMNATION T.A is still working out as a focused force even with Daisuke Sasaki still missing. Just like every other show that’s being advertised since his absence, the card can change if Sasaki appears at the show and is able to wrestle.

DDT “HEAT WAVE OVER FLOWERS 2 ~THE WORLD THAT EVERYONE DOES NOT KNOW~”, 14/02/2023
Shinjuku FACE

1. D GENERATIONS CUP – B Block: Keigo Nakamura Vs Yuki Ishida
2. D GENERATIONS CUP – A Block: Kazuma Sumi Vs Ilusion
3. ~The World Unknown To ShunMao~: MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Makoto Oishi & Shiori Asahi Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (Special Referee: MEN’S Teioh)
4. ~The World Unknown To Toi~: Toi Kojima Vs Yasu Urano
5. ~The World Unknown To Yuki~: Yuki Ueno Vs Gorgeous Matsuno & X
6. Special Tag Match: Akito & Sakura Hirota Vs Tetsuya Endo & Kazuki Hirata
7. Final Set ~The World Unknown To The 37KAMIINA~: MAO, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Ueno, Toi Kojima

DDT received a message from Gorgeous Matsuno earlier today about his singles match against Yuki Ueno. Matsuno warns there is another wrestler out there who wants to fight Ueno as much as he does so Matsuno is bringing him to the show. Matsuno also wants the match to turn into a 2 Vs 1 Handicap Match because of this. Ueno accepts the challenge, thinking Matsuno is so little of a threat that it may as well still be a singles match.

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

1. D GENERATIONS CUP – B Block: Toi Kojima (0) Vs Takeshi Masada (0)
2. D GENERATIONS CUP – A Block: Hideki Okatani (2) Vs Yuya Koroku (0)
3. 4 Way Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Keigo Nakamura
4. Tetsuya Endo, Kotaro Suzuki & Yusuke Okada Vs Yuji Hino, Makoto Oishi & Kazuma Sumi
5. Nagoya Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Yukio Naya Vs HARASHIMA, Soma Takao & Shinya Ishida
6. International Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kip Sabian (w/ Penelope Ford), Chris Brookes & Hagane Shinno Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno & Yuki Ishida
7. DDT Universal Title: Naruki Doi (c) Vs KANON
8. DDT Extreme Title – Master Of Environment Match: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Akito

Once again Jun Akiyama is allowing his challenger to come up with the match stipulation for a DDT Extreme Title defence. This time it is Akito as the opponent and he came up with the Master Of Environment Match. All four corner turnbuckle pads will be removed and two green straps will criss cross the ring. Akiyama and Akito will fight under normal rules with the ring in this state. The green straps do not count as rope breaks. Akito was inspired by Gaia’s fight against Sikorsky in Baki The Grappler to come up with the match idea. That fight was all about how to use the environment as a weapon and Akito thinks he has a much better chance of beating Akiyama under a similar scenario. The concept might backfire though because Akiyama himself admits he does not move a lot in his matches. The restrictions caused by the extra ropes across the ring may not even matter in the end. Akito wants to return the Extreme Title belt back to purple if he wins it but accepts that it is the champion who gets to make that decision.

Proof of DAMNATION T.A still being a well oiled machine can be seen from how KANON is dealing with Naruki Doi. KANON & MJ Paul attacked Doi backstage after his match last weekend. Today at a press conference KANON approached Doi and apologised for his behaviour. Doi wanted to make sure if the DDT Universal Title defence against KANON is only going to involve those two and no one else. That means no Sasaki and no Paul in KANON’s corner while Doi will not have Kazuki Hirata in his. Doi then hesitantly shook KANON’s hand until KANON gave him a low blow! He told Doi his title reign won’t make it past its first defence in Nagoya!

Let’s see how this AEW relationship works out. Kip Sabian makes his DDT debut and Penelope Ford is by his side for extra danger. His first match here has him teaming with both Chris Brookes & Hagane Shinno as an international trio. Shinno recently had his own little excursion in AEW over the winter.

BASARA “BASARA 211 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 24~”, 18/02/2023
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR

1. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino

The new IRON FIST Tag Champions are going up against former champions in their first defence. Isami Kodaka is now a double BASARA champion and Daiki Shimomura wants to hold the tag titles long enough for the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023”. That’s if he is chosen as BASARA’s representative of course. He may have jumped the gun on that. Aijin Tag lost the belts to the previous champions and had already planned to challenge them to a rematch. Now that Sento Minzoku have the titles, Aijin Tag had to change their target.

DDT/GCW “GCW VS DDT”, 31/03/2023
Ukrainian Cultural Center, Los Angeles, California, USA

1. Dark Sheik Vs Saki Akai
2. Jordan Oliver & Nick Wayne Vs MAO & Mike Bailey

We have our first two matches for the GCW Vs DDT show! The Moonlight Express reunite to take on The East West Express. The show will also pit GCW’s Dark Sheik against DDT’s own Saki Akai.

A partial lineup of other wrestlers have been announced. Team DDT so far consists of Kazusada Higuchi, Jun Akiyama and Yoshihiko. The first crop of GCW wrestlers showing up are Joey Janela, Blake Christian, EFFY and Allie Katch. The last two are being advertised together as Bussy (adding that to the taglist is going to be a dangerous game) so that means we have at least one other tag match happening.

BASARA “BASARA 209 ~GLITTER~” Results

January 31, 2023

BASARA “BASARA 209 ~GLITTER~”, 31/01/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Takato Nakano defeated Lil’ Kraken with the Diving Double Knee Drop (7:38).
2. Jacket 3 Way Match: FUMA and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Gouma Ryu with an Arm Lock And Camel Clutch And Sickle Lock Combination (R3 1:29).
3. Masato Kamino & Fuminori Abe defeated KUBITO & Daichi Kazato when Kamino pinned Kazato with the Lariat (11:31).
4. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa when Oosugi pinned Takizawa with a Cradle (10:36).
5. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Brain Claw Slam (17:56).
6. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano (c) when Shimomura pinned Urano with the Swanton Bomb (16:40).
*Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano fails n V1. Sento Minzoku becomes the 8th IRON FIST Tag Champions!

Isami Kodaka lived up to his word and is now the first wrestler in BASARA to hold the Union MAX Title and IRON FIST Tag Titles at the same time! Daiki Shimomura was also excited to win the Tag Titles again for a second time. Aijin Tag came out after the match to challenge Sento Minzoku to a title match. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino wanted to win the belts back from Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano but now they will have to fight the new champions instead. Nakano is hoping to win so he can bring the belt with him to the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023” on 1st March but Kamino interrupted him before he finished saying it. The new champions accepted and Kodaka decided the match will happen at Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR on 18th February. He also wants to defend the Union MAX Title in the same month so that will likely happen on the 28th in Shin-Kiba 1st RING.

The match between friends and DNA rivals Kazusada Higuchi and Ryota Nakatsu almost ended in a double knockout. Both wrestlers were down for a 9 count after Nakatsu applied a Triangle Choke and Higuchi broke free by countering it with a Power Bomb. Higuchi got the better of Nakatsu in the final exchange and pinned him with the Brain Claw Slam. After the match Higuchi said he and Yuki Ishida are unsure when Naomi Yoshimura will return to action. He asked for Nakatsu’s help and offered him a spot in Harimao. Given their history together Nakatsu was happy to accept after the other members of Sparky gave him their blessing. He also made sure to note he is joining as a new member and not as a replacement for the injured Yoshimura. Higuchi explained in an interview after the show that he wanted to add a presence not from DDT to the unit. He always thought if Harimao was going to add a fourth member it would be Nakatsu.

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~” Results

December 11, 2022

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~”, 11/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. FUMA, KUBITO & Daichi Kazato defeated Lil’ Kraken, Akira Jo & Leo Isaka when FUMA pinned Kraken after the Rider Kick German Suplex (10:17).
2. No DQ 3 Way Tag Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shiori Asahi (w/ Gouma Ryu) and Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Kei pinned Hiroshi after the Gotai Fumanzoku (6:32).
3. Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita when Nakatsu pinned Sekine after the V Slider from Nakatsu (12:03).
4. Atsuki Aoyagi defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Firebird Splash (10:53).
5. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs when Urano pinned Nakano with the Cross-Arm Thunder Fire Bomb (16:04).
*Aijin Tag fails in V2. Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano become the 7th IRON FIST Tag Champions!
6. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated Fuminori Abe by Knockout with the Isamiashi Zan (19:27).
*V3 for Isami Kodaka.

Fuminori Abe’s attempt to win back the Union MAX Title failed after he lost to Isami Kodaka by Knockout. The two pulled no punches against each other, ending with Kodaka cutting down the challenger with the Isamiashi Zan. Abe was given a 10 count to return to his feet and he almost made it. By 9 he was propping himself back up to a standing position by using the ropes but he collapsed and the referee made it to 10 to end the match. Kodaka celebrated the win with the rest of Sento Minzoku and spent his victory speech saying how great pro wrestling is. He also told Abe that the next time they fight each other he is going to beat him by pinfall.

Abe got to give a speech too and talked about his last five years wrestling under the BASARA banner. He does not know how much longer his career is going to last but he will dedicate what’s left of it to the development of independent wrestling, BASARA included. He explained himself further after the show by revealing his contract with BASARA is ending on 31st December and he made the decision to go freelance in 2023. He joked about going to WWE but in reality nothing is changing. Abe will continue to appear at BASARA on a regular basis on the same kind of deal Minoru Fujita and Yasu Urano are doing. The indies have helped Abe and nurtured him throughout his life so this is how he is going to pay it back. That’s why he kept this announcement for after the show instead of saying it in the ring.

In 2016 Takumi Tsukamoto won the first ever IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT with Isami Kodaka but there IRON FIST Tag Titles did not exist yet. So it wasn’t until today that Tsukamoto finally won the titles with Urano as his partner. He thinks the belts were made for him because they feature a moon design on one of the plates and he has a moon on his ring gear. Aijin Tag are depressed to lose the titles this quickly after dedicating so much of their year trying to win them.

Ryuichi Sekine is happy to be back in pro wrestling even though he lost his return match. He spent his time away from the ring as a farmer and plans to continue doing that career along with pro wrestling from now on. Sekine will come back for more matches but has not decided when they will happen next.

Akiyama’s 1st TLC Match, Kotaro BURNS Again, Rhio Challenges Yamashita For EVE Title

November 30, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN TOUR ’22”, 03/12/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Mizuki Vs Haruna Neko
2. Rika Tatsumi Vs Pom Harajuku
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Millie McKenzie Vs Shoko Nakajima & Suzume
4. Miu Watanabe Vs Mahiro Kiryu
5. Yuki Aino & Raku Vs Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo Vs Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Moka Miyamoto

The long road to Ittenyon has begun. Yuka Sakazaki and Miyu Yamashita have plenty of time and matches with each other to prepare for the Princess Of Princess Title match on 4th January.

Raku has recovered from covid and is cleared to wrestle again. She missed out on the Princess Tag Team Titles match but her team with Yuki Aino continues.

Before Millie McKenzie goes back to England she is getting another match in Tokyo Joshi Pro.

Nao Kakuta is absent again because she is back doing her stage play.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 THE FINAL”, 04/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito & Antonio Honda
2. Soma Takao, Hideki Okatani & Hikaru Machida Vs Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Takeshi Masada
3. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Kotaro Suzuki & Yusuke Okada Vs MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Toi Kojima
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi & Kazuma Sumi
5. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuji Hino, Chris Brookes & RSP Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Minoru Fujita, MJ Paul & KANON
6. DDT Extreme Title – TLC Match: Joey Janela (c) Vs Jun Akiyama
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – Final: Yuki Ueno Vs Yukio Naya

For the first time in his illustrious career Jun Akiyama is doing a TLC Match! Joey Janela chose the stipulation on purpose for that reason. He also thinks beating Akiyama in a TLC Match will benefit GCW and their expansion into Japan. Akiyama is not familiar with the match type even after his recent appearances in America for AEW. All he knows is it sounds like the kind of match Shunma Katsumata likes to do. Akiyama agreed to do the match and promises to do it with his own style. He hears that Janela has respect for him but he does not believe it.

During the week Akiyama held an interview with Kotaro Suzuki on his Youtube channel. Suzuki revealed his contract with NOAH had just expired and he is now a free agent. Akiyama suggested he come wrestle a match for DDT. He would set everything up for him to do it. Suzuki was a member of a previous version of BURNING so it only makes sense for him to be part of their team in the match against The 37KAMIINA. The sauna boys add Toi Kojima to even the numbers.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT AUTUMN ~HAMAMATSU PERFORMANCE~”, 10/12/2022
Shizuoka Entetsu Hall

1. EVE Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Rhio

Here is “The Unbreakable” Rhio making her second tour of TJPW. On the same show that Yamashita won the EVE Title at, Rhio had already thrown her name out as the next challenger for the championship. McKenzie ended up leapfrogging her for to be Yamashita’s first challenger and there won’t be another EVE show taking place until January so Rhio is taking matters into her own hands. She is going back to Japan with the goal of winning the EVE Title and bringing it back home. EVE announced that should Rhio beat Yamashita and become the new champion, Yamashita will get a rematch in London on 7th January. I assume she’ll be doing that date with or without the title anyway.

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~”, 11/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita Vs Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT
2. Daiki Shimomura Vs Atsuki Aoyagi
3. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano
4. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Fuminori Abe

Yasu Urano is having a career resurgance on the indies. He made it to the final of the Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament and currently holds the main championship in JUST TAP OUT. He can add more glory by teaming with Takumi Tsukamoto and winning the IRON FIST Tag Titles from Aijin Tag. The tournament is the connecting point for everyone in the match. Masato Kamino eliminated Tsukamoto in the first round and then beat his own partner Takato Nakano in the next. Urano beat Kamino in the semi final.

The current AJPW World Jr. Heavyweight Champion is coming to BASARA. In a first time meeting Daiki Shimomura is defending home turf against Atsuki Aoyagi!

DDT “DANSHOKU DIENO 20TH ANNIVERSARY BOOK PUBLICATION COMMEMORATION”, 21/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Selfishly For The 2nd Time In 20 Years, A Single Match That Danshoku Dieno Just Wants To See: Yuki “Sexy” Iino Vs Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari
2. Selfishly For The 1st Time In 20 Years, Danshoku Dieno’s Self-Satisfaction Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Muscle Sakai

Danshoku Dieno’s pet dog Haku will be a special guest on the show. He is an 11 month old shelter dog Dieno adopted back in September. Haku will do a meet & greet and will have his own merchandise on sale too.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2022”, 29/12/2022
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Takeshi Masada
2. Pheromones Vs “Miyako & Ward” Pheromones Subjugation Allied Forces: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari & Koju “Shining Ball” Takeda Vs Akito, Osamu Nishimura, Shinichiro Kawamatsu & Shunma Katsumata
3. Special Tag Match: Saki Akai & Yuki Arai Vs Saori Anou & Riko Kawahata
4. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Chihiro Hashimoto
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

Shinya Aoki wants his match against Chihiro Hashimoto to be held under Ganryujima Rules, which means the ropes will be removed from the ring. Hashimoto is unsure to accept the condition because she has never wrestled in that kind of environment before. What she is sure about is to beat Aoki by using her German Suplex finisher, the Albright.

BASARA “BASARA 205 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 22~”, 26/11/2022
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Submission Tag Match: Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano defeated Man Man Kai Kind & Fuminori Abe when Shimomura submitted Kind with a 2 Way Inverted Crab Hold on the Foot Acupoint Mat (10:07).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 2 – 0 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
2. Jacket Tag Match: Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken defeated Daichi Kazato & Takumi Tsukamoto by Referee Stoppage when Kamino used the Tenri High Butterfly Lock on Kazato (R4 0:47).

3. Horror! Jusenkyo Single Match: Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Banana Senga ended in a No Contest (11:33). (Special Referee: Isami)

*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 5 – 3 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
5. Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces Vs Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack Special Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & FUMA when Nakatsu grabbed the Scroll (15:14).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 5 – 5 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.

Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, FUMA, Yasu Urano, Banana Senga, Daichi Kazato, Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano

Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack: Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT, Isami Kodaka, Tsutomu Oosugi, Masato Kamino, Lil’ Kraken, Fuminori Abe & Man Man Kai Kind

The second show was built around a challenge series between the Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces led by Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & FUMA against the Ninja USA Forces led by Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT. 2 points were given for a win and 1 was given for a draw. The series ended in a 5-5 tie after the main event so maybe another challenge will be held again sometime in the future.

The final match had a scroll hanging above the ring and the winning team was whoever could pull it down first. It was not a Ladder match however and there were none to be seen. Everyone piled together for Hiroshi and Nakatsu to climb onto and the two fought beneath the scroll. Hiroshi was knocked off the pile and Nakatsu was able to grab the scroll before falling after him to win the match.

Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken missed the memo on the jacket match and came down to the ring wearing swimming costumes instead of martial arts gear.

Mixed fortunes all around in the D-Ou Grand Prix so far. A Block is all to play for at the moment. Everyone is still in the running so wrestlers like Naomi Yoshimura and Daisuke Sasaki have to start their comeback now before it’s too late. The B Block matches on this show is giving those involved the chance to catch up with the leader Yuji Hino.

GANBARE☆PRO “GUNHED 2022”, 19/11/2022
Chiba 2AW Square

1. Soma Takao & Tyson Maeguchi Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Shinichiro Tominaga
2. Original GanPro Tag Vs Last Teacher-Student Tag: Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari Vs Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki
3. Gunhed 2022 Special Tag Match: Hartley Jackson & Seiya Morohashi Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa & Mizuki Watase
4. GanJo Three Big Singles Match: HARUKAZE Vs YuuRI
5. GanJo Three Big Singles Match: Moeka Haruhi Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
6. GanJo Three Big Singles Match: Yuna Manase Vs Echika Miyabi

It’s time for Ganbare☆Joshi to finally do those big series of singles matches that shows are built around sometimes. Most of the division are taking on each other but Yuna Manase is getting a brand new opponent making her Ganbare☆Pro debut. Echika Miyabi is a trans joshi wrestler who made her pro wrestling debut with P.P.P. Tokyo in September. Miyabi is 21 years old, 178cm tall and weighs 75kg. She had a background in baseball and judo before she transitioned during her college years. She worked at a muscle girls themed bar where she was introduced to pro wrestling by her workmate, Chanyota and began training with her.

It will be a few weeks until the next Spirit Of Ganbare Title defence so until then Hartley Jackson and Mizuki Watase will have plenty of time to prepare for it. Former champion Tatsuhito Takaiwa is coming back to give Watase some help in his preparation. Jackson will be teaming with Seiya Morohashi for this match.

Kouki Iwasaki’s final match in Ganpro will be against Keisuke Ishii but before that happens, he wants to team with him one last time. Their friendship will be put to the test against Ganpro’s original best buddies, Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari.

DDT “UTAN FESTA 2022”, 27/11/2022
Tokyo JR Omori Station East Exit Square

1. World Omori Title: Chikara (c) Vs Soma Takao

2018 was the last time the World Omori Title was defended outside the JR Omori Station. It’s been years since DDT held a show there but they are finally going back. It was determined four years ago that Chikara would defend the title against Masahiro Takanashi next but Takanashi will be busy wrestling in Singapore. So instead Soma Takao has been chosen to challenge for the belt even though he does not want to. The next No. 1 Contender for the following year’s event is usually determined on this show too.

8. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs MAO

Now that Pheromones have won the war against Sanshiro Takagi, it is up to Akito to protect DDT from their scandalous ways. Takagi has “graduated” from the feud and selected Akito to take his place as Captain of the Pheromones Subjugation Squad. Akito feels like he’s been in that position for a while anyway but agreed to the idea. He’s not wrestling on this show but will be accompanying the opposing team to make sure Pheromones don’t fall out of line.

7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs MAO
8. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs Yukio Naya

The new rookie Kazumi Sumi impressed with his debut match. Jae over at Dragongate revealed in a tweet that Sumi originally came from the dojo over there but dropped out. And that is how DDT is getting some of their new trainees. They start training at other companies, leave for whatever reason and end up over in DDT. Might be a little awkward if he bumps into Naruki Doi in the locker room then.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN KYOTO”, 13/11/2022
Kyoto KBS Hall

1. Joey Janela, Makoto Oishi & Yuki Ishida Vs RSP, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku

7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yukio Naya Vs KANON
8. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yuji Hino Vs MAO

Doi’s next appearance in DDT will be in Kyoto where he’s teaming with Tetsuya Endo & Akito against three of DDT’s younger wrestlers.

One of the non-tournament matches will feature Joey Janela against Rickey Shane Page on opposite sides. Not sure if there’s still bad blood between the two over the GCW Vs 44OH! feud from not so long ago but they don’t even need that excuse to do something crazy together. They’ll be facing each other in the D-Ou GP a few days later anyway so plenty of chances for them to wreck each other.

6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yukio Naya
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs Yuji Hino

Last we heard from Gorgeous Matsuno he was in the early stages of preparations donating a kidney to his partner Junko Tashiro. He gave an update during the week that the kidney transplant has been delayed until next Spring. He explained in an interview that Tashiro’s recent blood tests showed she is in good health and her doctors suggested it might not be a good idea to get a transplant right away while her own kidneys are still functioning. The operation will have to happen eventually but right now Matsuno has been given extra time to go back to his different entertainment activities, including pro wrestling.

“MASAHIRO TAKANASHI INDEPENDENT PERFORMANCE – BOKUTACHI 4 HANJUKU 4 I LOVE YOU! 2022”, 22/11/2022

2. Chris Brookes, Drew Parker & Antonio Honda Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao

A Team Drift reunion is on the cards over at Masahiro Takanashi’s show. He’s also added a bunch of teams to the Mixed Tag Gauntlet match. Takanashi has already apologised to Saki Akai for sticking her with the Brahman Brothers.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2022”, 29/12/2022
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. Special Tag Match: Saki Akai & Yuki Arai Vs Saori Anou & Riko Kawahata
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

It’s very likely that the D-Ou winner will challenge Kazusada Higuchi for the KO-D Openweight Title at the end of the year. Or if Higuchi wins the tournament then he will likely nominate his challenger.

Two outsiders have come to challenge Reiwa AA Cannon. The duo of Saori Anou & Riko Kawahata both have histories with Saki Akai but they are completely brand new opponents for Yuki Arai.

BASARA “BASARA 201 ~GLITTER~” Results

October 11, 2022

BASARA “BASARA 201 ~GLITTER~”, 11/10/2022
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 A Block – 2 Count Rules: FUMA defeated Daiki Shimomura with a Cradle (8:14).
2. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 B Block – 2 Count Rules: Yasu Urano defeated Ryota Nakatsu with a School Boy (8:42)
3. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 A Block – 2 Count Rules: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Minoru Fujita with a Cross Armbar (7:58).
4. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 B Block – 2 Count Rules: Isami Kodaka defeated Banana Senga with the Diving Double Knee Drop (4:24).
5. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 A Block – 2 Count Rules: Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Lil’ Kraken with the Tsuki no Ishi (6:23).
6. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 B Block – 2 Count Rules: Takato Nakano defeated SAGAT with a Cradle (1:03).
7. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 A Block – 2 Count Rules: Fuminori Abe defeated Daichi Kazato with the Modified Manjigatame (5:36).
8. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Round 1 B Block – 2 Count Rules: Masato Kamino defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the Lariat (8:38).

The Chouten ~Itadaki~ Quarter Finals are FUMA Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Fuminori Abe, Masato Kamino Vs Takato Nakano and Isami Kodaka Vs Yasu Urano.

FUMA said he has been waiting to finally fight Hiroshi with all of his might. Hiroshi credits his Judo skill for eliminating the last Chouten winner Minoru Fujita and believes it will also beat his friend in the next round.

Urano thinks the 2 Count Rule was the reason he beat Ryota Nakatsu in the 1st Round. If Urano is lucky enough to beat him then he is lucky enough to win the tournament! His match with Kodaka in Round 2 is under normal 3 Count rules though.

Oosugi and Abe have never been in a singles match against each other before. However Oosugi still hates Abe a lot because of all the times they fought in tag matches. Abe’s jokey behavior pisses him off.

Aijin Tag now have to meet in the next round. Nakano said he will pin Kamino for a 3 Count in 0.1 seconds. Kamino had to ask the ref if he can physically count that fast.
