4. DAMNATION Vs The 37KAMIINA! A Special 6-Man Tag Match Where Tetsuya Endo From Shiroishi City And MAO From Osaki City Will Fight For Miyagi’s Will And Pride! ~ No Tag Rules: Konosuke Takeshita, Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Mad Paulie when MAO pinned Paulie with the Cannonball 450 (15:25).
5. Ultimate Tag League 2021: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi (4) defeated Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda (2) when Sakaguchi submitted Honda with a Triangle Choke (15:18).
6. Ultimate Tag League 2021: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi (2) defeated Daisuke Sasaki & Yuji Hino (3) when Oishi submitted Sasaki with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (14:12).
Makoto Oishi makes up for Junretsu’s slow start by winning their first points in the league. Today’s win was special for him because Sendai is where his wife Misaki Oishi was born. Jun Akiyama said Oishi is the key to their team. They win when he is good, they lose when he is bad. Daisuke Sasaki & Yuji Hino’s excuse for losing is they can’t beat the spirit of Mt. Fuji that Oishi drew his power from.
A reversal of fortunes saw Yukio Sakaguchi hurt his knees and tell his own story to pass the time. Things went back to normal when Antonio Honda ended up in the same position to use Gongitsune. His sneak attack accidentally hit Yukinori Matsui instead but at least that allowed The Iyasareru to cheat a little. Kazusada Higuchi and Chris Brookes intervened but the match came down to Sakaguchi and Honda. Sakaguchi countered the Diving Fist Drop by catching Honda into a Triangle Choke. With this submission win, Eruption is now in 1st place.
Local pride was on the line between MAO and Tetsuya Endo. Both are from the Miyagi region and wanted to be the hometown hero for this show, even though both of their actual hometowns are miles away from Sendai. Mad Paulie of all people came up with the idea to make the match No Tag rules. Sadly for him, he got pinned by MAO so MAO got to give the big speech afterwards to the fans.
Naomi Yoshimura and Yuki Iino were at each other’s throats during their tag match. They brawled around ringside even as the match reached its end. Iino charged at Yoshimura again afterwards and the two had to be kept apart.
Keigo Nakamura upgraded his Moonsault to use against standing opponents. He now calls that version the Michinoku Attack.
DDT “DRAMATIC LOVE FOR FUJI! 2020”, 15/11/2020 Shizuoka Fuji-san Messe ??? Fans – Withheld
1. Akito defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with a Figure 4 Leg Lock (9:23).
2. Antonio Honda defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Diving Fist Drop (10:42).
3. Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai defeated Danshoku Dieno & Hideki Okatani when Sakaguchi pinned Okatani with a Gaydo Clutch (9:06).
4. DDT Megatonweight Single Match: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Mad Paulie with a Diving Body Press (11:08).
5. DAMNATION Vs DDT Sauna Club!: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Yuki Ueno defeated Tetsuya Endo, Daisuke Sasaki, Soma Takao & Nobuhiro Shimatani when MAO pinned Shimatani with the Michinoku Driver I (15:57).
6. Makoto Oishi 42 Year Old Local Triumph! Fuji Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Mizuki Watase defeated HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes & Kazuki Hirata when Oishi submitted Hirata with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (17:18).
The show was all about Makoto Oishi wrestling in front of his hometown crowd. Kazuki Hirata stole some of the spotlight by dancing in front of Jun Akiyama for his entrance. The final moments of the match saw Oishi and Hirata scramble for the win. Oishi ended up catching his opponent in the Fujiyama Knee Lock for the submission victory. After the match Oishi said he wanted to show off Mt. Fuji to everyone who travelled from Tokyo but it was too cloudy to see the view. Instead they got to see the Fujiyama Knee Lock which is the next best thing. He was also happy to wrestle in front of his daughter Akari for the first time but she slept through his entrance (and possibly the entire match) in Misaki Ohata’s arms. Akiyama said she will grow up to be a big deal someday. He also won’t forgive Hirata for his dancing.
The DDT Sauna Club continues to boost through the rest of the roster, this time beating DAMNATION. The well oiled team lifted up Nobuhiro Shimatani for Shunma Katsumata to do a Diving X Factor on. DAMNATION were there to break the count but couldn’t stop MAO from finishing him off. Katsumata told the fans he wants the Sauna Club to challenge for either the KO-D Tag Team Titles or the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. Backstage Yuki Ueno kept telling him a team of four can’t challenge for a trios championship. Katsumata waved him off and kept telling him over and over the club’s bond has deepened.
Kazusada Higuchi said he will not let Akiyama win their block in the D-Ou Grand Prix. He seems to be a little annoyed that all the wrestling press is putting Akiyama as the favorite.
Danshoku Dieno gave Hideki Okatani advice before their tag match. He said if Okatani wants to win a championship in the soonest time possible, he should wrestle with his tights pulled down just like Dieno tends to do. Dieno kept telling him that wrestling wit his backside exposed will definitely make him stronger. Okatani eventually gave in but Yukio Sakaguchi did the same and pinned him with the Gaydo Clutch while both their shorts were pulled down.
The second match was briefly paused so Antonio Honda and Keigo Nakamura could both get their skin checked by the beauty product sponsor C’bon Corporation. Honda was judged to have cleaner skin and that caused great damage to Nakamura. Honda ended up winning with a skin smooth Diving Fist Drop.

6 Shizuoka Triumph! Makoto Oishi Ambition Of Sengoku Gunyu-den ~Sontaku~ Survival 4 Way Match: Mad Paulie defeated Makoto Oishi, Konosuke Takeshita and HARASHIMA (15:29).
6a. Mad Paulie eliminated HARASHIMA by Ring Out (11:28).
6b. Mad Paulie eliminated Konosuke Takeshita by Ring Out (12:59).
6c. Mad Paulie eliminated Makoto Oishi with the Paulie Buster (15:29).
The main event 4 Way was held under elimination rules where getting knocked over the top rope and out of the ring would remove a wrestler from the match. Mad Paulie went on a tear by eliminating both HARASHIMA and Konosuke Takeshita by Ring Out. However the reason Takeshita got eliminated was so the hometown wrestler Makoto Oishi could stay in the match and win for his fans. Oishi was given extra motivation when DAMNATION found his wife Misaki Ohata and his mother Machiko sitting in the audience. Nobuhiro Shimatani grabbed Ohata and threw her into the ring for Paulie to attack her. Ohata got out of the way and her husband got ready to win the match. Unfortunately Paulie gave him the Paulie Buster and won instead.
Afterwards Daisuke Sasaki feigned disappointment in Oishi then calmed Paulie down with the promise of giving him porn when they go backstage. When they left, Ohata complained to Oishi over what just happened. When she retired from wrestling she was promised she would never have to step in the ring and get involved ever again. Also Oishi lost after both she and Takeshita helped him out. If he is meant to be the hero today then he better finish the show with something cool. Oishi apologised to the fans for losing but said whenever DDT comes to Shimizu, they get to see the cool side of Makoto Oishi. He doesn’t know when DDT will come back. It may even be ten years down the line. But Oishi will be there every time DDT comes back so please everyone bring at least two or three more friends with you to the show!
Yukio Sakaguchi and Keisuke Okuda got in each other’s faces after their loss to DAMNATION. They had to be pulled apart.
Antonio Honda used the excuse of a chronic disease induced seizure to talk about Gongitsune but MAO stopped him from doing it. Later Honda took the microphone again when he hurt his knee. This time it was to talk about MAO’s favourite anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. The action went even weirder when the two duelled over pinching nipples. Honda blinded MAO with the Shining Gongitsune but even then a blinded MAO was able to put Honda in a Backslide Pin for the three count. MAO told Honda that he is extreme too then called for an intermission because he can’t see.
The DISASTER BOX reunion saw Shogo “Jet” Takagi do his jab combo in tune to “TOKYO GO!” Yuki Iino also wrestled part of the match in rugby headgear given to him by Takeshita. He kept wearing it for his haka victory dance while “Holding Out For A Hero” by Miki Asakura played in the arena.
DDT “HANDMADE IN JAPAN FESTIVAL WINTER (2019)”, 12/01/2019 Tokyo Big Sight West Hall Music & Play Area ??? Fans
1. Falls Count Anywhere 3 Way Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Kota Umeda defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Yuki Iino and MAO & Mizuki Watase when pinned Watase with a Diving Body Press from the Ladder onto the Dream Go Wreckage (27:55).
For DDT’s return to the Handmade In Japan Fes in 2019, Sanshiro Takagi prepared something new and special for the occasion. He constructed the Dream Go, a giant figure made out of plastic cases to be used as a secret weapon at February’s Sumo Hall show. However it is only 80% complete and Takagi wanted to use today’s match at the festival to search for the remaining parts he needs. Unfortunately the Dream Go collapsed and broke apart into pieces when the crew tried to lift it off the stage.
When the match began, MAO & Mizuki Watase attacked Iino with a skateboard and mostly target his ass. Watase also encouraged some kids in the crowd to step forth and chop Iino in the ass. The match moved into the market where the wrestlers bumped into Makoto Oishi and Misaki Ohata. The couple were there as customers but Oishi joined in the fun of attacking wrestlers with skateboard while Ohata watched with a confused look on her face. The wrestlers then trapped each other in a line of Headscissors that Iino flipped over into a massive Crab Hold. Takagi escaped and purchased some items from the market stalls. MAO got angry when he found out Takagi was passing the bill on to DDT instead of paying for them with his own money. The wrestlers then went beer tasting. Takagi bought a bottle so he could hit MAO with it. Watase ended up getting drunk enough to yell at everyone for attention. That stopped when Iino tackled him from behind. MAO found a large sphere to do a Moonsault off of. Everyone went down except for Takagi who went missing.
Takagi was found back at the stage repairing the Dream Go. He placed Watase on a table below then with Iino threw the Dream Go at Watase! Watase rolled out of the way and the Dream Go hit the table and broke into pieces again. Iino Speared MAO and Kota Umeda into the remains. Watase was thrown onto the table again and had the cases placed on top of him. Kazusada Higuchi climbed the ladder and hit a Diving Body Press on Watase, crushing him through the table and beneath the Dream Go! Higuchi pinned Watase to win the match for himself and Umeda.
After the match Higuchi found out that the Handmade In Japan Fes is held twice a year with the second one taking place in the summer. He asked the event organiser if DDT can come back for it. The organiser said he will consider it.

After a few days off the D-Ou Grand Prix was back in action today but one wrestler in particular continues to struggle out of the starting gates. HARASHIMA is now the only person in the tournament who is winless. Even worse is his defeat today was against Kazusada Higuchi, a rival who has not had the best of luck against HARASHIMA in singles matches until now. HARASHIMA did have Higuchi beaten with the Somato but was too slow to pin him. That allowed Higuchi time to fight back and hit the Doctor Bomb twice to win. Higuchi called HARASHIMA his wall and today he was able to climb over it! HARASHIMA gave credit to Higuchi for staying calm throughout the match. His mental strength has improved since their last match against each other and that was the difference maker.
Konosuke Takeshita took a page out of Mike Bailey’s book by bringing out a new finishing move to win his first match in the Grand Prix. Takeshita has created the Fable, a Swanton Bomb from the middle of the top rope onto an opponent sitting in the middle of the ring. Masahiro Takanashi takes the “honour” of being the first victim of the move. Takeshita was inspired by CIMA’s Meteora to create a similar move. He would have used it in his first match against Bailey but the opportunity was never there. Takeshita now wants to change his style whenever he loses so nobody from the wrestlers to the fans can predict what he’ll do in the ring next.
In his second match of the tournament, Shinya Aoki again won in under five minutes this time against Mike Bailey. Aoki chased down his opponent and applied a deep Sleeper Hold, keeping it on while Bailey rolled them out of the ring and onto the entrance ramp. When he finally let go and went back into the ring, Bailey caught him with a High Kick and went for the Ultima Weapon. Aoki instead caught him in a Rotation Arm Lock and got the submission victory. Aoki later complained about his opponents not being a good fit for him so far. He thinks none of his tournament matches have meshed and he’s felt no danger.
The DAMNATION Vs DAMNATION match had the added bonus of being an Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title match. Despite being in the same stable, Tetsuya Endo and Soma Takao did not hold back against each other. Endo thought he had the match won with the Tetsuya In The Sky but Takao turned the pin into the Official Endless Waltz. With Endo left dizzy, Takao then applied La Magistral Cradle to win the match and the title! Takao apologised to Endo for taking his belt. He didn’t even want it. Takao then asked Nobuhiro Shimatani where Mad Paulie was. He’s having his food time. Shimatani then addressed the audience about DAMNATION’s performance today with Takao being the only one in the group to win. He accidentally called Takao “BIMA” and Takao knocked him out to shut him up. Takao also claims his official record in the tournament is 3 wins and 0 losses. Today is really his first win.
As mentioned above, DAMNATION didn’t have the most success today. Daisuke Sasaki lost his match to Akito in a match where Akito constantly targets Sasaki’s knees. The damage took its toll and Akito was able to escape from Sasaki’s Cross Facelock to drop Sasaki knees first onto the canvas. From there Akito got Sasaki to submit to the Perfect Figure 4 Leg Lock. Akito says this victory is bigger than anything he’s gotten before. He got valuable league points and more important than that, he’s beaten the reigning KO-D Openweight Champion! Sasaki was left in despair over the result. Backstage he begged reporters to give him scissors so he could cut his own hair as a forfeit. When he got no answers Sasaki instead decided to make Akito his challenger for the KO-D Title on 3rd January!
Husband and wife Makoto Oishi & Misaki Ohata got their wish to wrestle each other with Shiori Asahi & Ryo Mizunami also involved. Oishi & Asahi had Ohata beaten with the Cactus Flower but time ran out before they could get the pin. Oishi & Ohata embraced after the match before AvidRival left Oishi & Asahi in the ring. Oishi pointed out that he and Asahi are currently the STRONGEST-K TAG Champions in K-DOJO. Maybe they should go after the KO-D Tag Team Titles in DDT too! MAO entered the ring with both of the KO-D Tag belts to confront them but Oishi & Asahi instead decided to change their minds and leave him be.
The Muscle brand will provide a pre-show match on the 30th December Korakuen Hall show. Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda, Choun-Shiryu, Pedro Takaishi, Yasu Urano and Makoto Oishi will be part of the match.

With Misaki Ohata’s retirement coming soon, she wants to leave her career with no regrets. That means before she quits she wants to have a match against her husband Makoto Oishi! Ohata says she only needs 10 minutes with Oishi and originally asked for a singles match. Oishi however wanted to team with Shiori Asahi in DDT again. Struck with inspiration, Oishi asked DDT to bring in Oishi’s friend Ryo Mizunami so they could team up as AvidRival one more time. That way the match will appeal to fans of DDT, K-DOJO and WAVE all at once.

6. YaroZ Vs Mote Mote Army All Out Fight!: Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & SAGAT defeated Akito, Makoto Oishi & Yuki Ueno when Higuchi pinned Ueno with the YaroZ Bomber (11:03).
The stories from this show were similar to the ones from previous few YaroZ events. The Mote Mote Army kidnapped the guest idol Karin Tachibana and held her hostage during the main event. The YaroZ team led by Kazusada Higuchi came to the rescue and defeated their enemy to rescue her. The new bit this time involved Makoto Oishi refusing to let go of Tachibana. This led to his wife Misaki Ohata to come out and give him a German Suplex. She ordered Oishi to free Tachibana then attached a leash to him as punishment. The YaroZ invited Tachibana to hang out with them after the show but she turned them down. She has to go shoot a video in Hawaii. Also Akito is more her type. Suddenly Nonoko ran down to the ring. If the YaroZ are looking for a pretty girl to be with, she’s available. None of them gave her a response.
Yuna Manase played a vital role in the Boob Flag Death Match. She had to stand in the corner with a mini flag sticking out of her chest while Antonio Honda and Ryuichi Sekine fought over who could pull it out first. Honda blinded Sekine with the Shining Gongitsune but couldn’t build up the courage to reach towards Manase’s chest. Sekine meanwhile couldn’t see and he walked into Yuki Iino. He grabbed Iino’s chest thinking it was Manase. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi grabbed the flag from Manase and handed it to Honda but the referee was too distracted to see it. Manase gave a Lariat to both Honda and Sekine. When picked up the flag from the mat, the referee saw it and declared Manase the winner.
Karin Tachibana did the other usual role for idols in YaroZ shows and that’s being the ring girl for the rounds match. She was fully dressed at the start and stripped off an item of clothing after every round. All the wrestlers encouraged the match to go as long as possible but Gorgeous Matsuno was just getting destroyed by Tatsuhito Takaiwa. Referee Yukinori Matsui tried everything he could to keep the match going so Tachibana’s striptease could continue. But when Takaiawa hit the Death Valley Driver, the other referee Yuya Okada ran in and counted three. Matsui was so angry that he wrestled Okada after the match. Tachibana stopped the madness by stripping down to her swimsuit. That was when the Mote Mote Army showed up and kidnapped her. The YaroZ wanted to rescue Tachibana straight away but they all couldn’t move because of their erections from the striptease.
Yumehito Imanari used his referee status to get very close to the action between Yuna Manase and Himeka Arita. He was more interested in getting pervy angles on their wrestling holds rather than calling the match. Manase and Arita got sick of his behaviour and both attacked him. Nonoko also showed up to join in and the match was called off. Nonoko had another reason for showing up today. She wanted to know why Imanari was messing around in DDT instead of achieving his dream of becoming a movie director. Imanari admitted he gave that dream up long ago because he was chasing deadlines every day. Nonoko asked Imanari what he has learned from wrestling. He should know that wrestling matches only end when you give up. Nonoko called Imanari talented with many people supporting him including herself, Manase and Arita. Imanari then had a brainflash. He can make a Charlie’s Angels kind of movie with the three women in front of him! Feeling like himself again, Imanari got the audience to cheer “3, 2, 1, Oppai Oppai!” That caused the women to attack him again.
The Fundoshi match immediately turned into a ringside brawl where both teams were counted out. Everyone agreed to restart the bout as a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match but they needed a weapon. They decided on using plates of curry because of Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi’s connection to India. Hiroshi accidentally hit Yuki Iino in the face with the curry. Abdullah Kobayashi hit the Bakachinga Elbow on Iino. Sanshiro Takagi then sat on Iino’s face to pin him.
There were plenty of cheers for Gota Ihashi and nothing but boos for Konosuke Takeshita in the opener. That’s what Takeshita gets for being an ikemen wrestler at a YaroZ show. Takeshita rolled away from a Moonsault and gave Ihashi a Brainbuster. He then placed his feet on the ropes for leverage while pinning Ihashi to win the match.
