Isami Kodaka was the last man standing in the Union Vs Ganbare☆Wrestling Elimination match. Ganpuro were able to reduce the Union team down to just Kodaka but their advantage was ruined when Yumehito Imanari accidentaly eliminated his team mate Ken Ohka from the match with a badly timed Axe Bomber. Kodaka then kicked Imanari in the head to win the match. Kodaka then told Ohka he would face him anytime, even right there in Miyagi. But Ohka gathered his troops and left ringside defeated.

*The Golden Lovers fails in V2. Shuten-dōji becomes the 10th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions!

The drinks are on Shuten-dōji tonight because they are the new KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions! The main even saw Yukio Sakaguchi pin Daisuke Sasaki to end the Golden Lovers’ reign. Masa Takanashi taunted Kota Ibushi after the match for thinking the Lovers were going to win. Sakaguchi simply said “Today we won the belts. Kanpai!” and the new champs celebrated with a drink.

Even though he lost his match today, Gorgeous Matsuno demanded Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie to give him an All Asia Tag Team Title match on the 6th May Yamagata show.

The wrestlers’ bus was delayed by Golden Week traffic and only arrived 20 minutes after the building doors opened for the fans. The show was scheduled to begin with a Triple Threat match but only Konosuke Takeshita and Tomomitsu Matsunaga entered the ring. Just when they were about to start wrestling, Michael Nakazawa finally appeared yelling “Wait a minute!” and he rushed to the ring so the planned match can go ahead. Takeshita pinned him in 8 seconds with a Dropkick. They agreed to restart the match and Takeshita eventually pinned Nakazawa again.

After a chaotic victory on Tuesday, the Golden Lovers must defend their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles again this weekend. Now they face the alcohol fueled power of Shuten-dōji.

Yoshihiko has made a full recovery from Tuesday’s show and very quickly returns to the action.

5. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Guanchulo Vs Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki
6. KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi Vs HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano & Konosuke Takeshita

With HARASHIMA claiming a Right To Challenge Contract and declaring he will cash it in against KUDO on 25th May, the two get to face against each other beforehand in a 6-Man Tag. I wonder what state of mind Yasu Urano will be in since he just cashed in his contract and lost to KUDO.

7. DDT Extreme Title: Danshoku Dino (c) Vs Masa Takanashi

Minoru Suzuki returns for a special match with Michael Nakazawa. It’s going to be pretty one sided.

2. Cherry & X Vs Ladybeard & Saki Akai
3. Mitomi Masayuki Vs Shinichiro Tominaga

5. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Hikaru Sato

Shinichiro Tominaga now gets a role in the Union–Ganpuro war facing against Union’s current micro indie dynamo Mitomu Masayuki. Tominaga originally came to Union on a similar path but injuries brought an end to his time with the company and he never fulfilled his potential. Masayuki is now in his spot which could make the match personal.

DDT “ANTONIO HONDA BOX OFFICE ~DEKI-GOKORO~”, 01/06/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Bra And Submission Match: Antonio Honda Vs Norikazu Fujioka

Antonio Honda books his first match for his self-produced event and it is against DDT’s scrawny member of the production staff Norikazu Fujioka. They face off in a Bra And Submission Match where the aim is to either strip the opponent of their bra or make them submit.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: KUDO (c) Vs Akito

Poison Sawada JULIE revealed his intentions to prevent Sanshiro Takagi from retiring the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. According to Sawada he possesses an ancient lighter from the Inca Empire which can be used to burn the championship belt. When burnt, a treasure map of Arica appears on the belt’s strap. If Takagi gets his way and retires the championship he will have the belt all to himself. Sawada does not want Takagi to discover the map and go after the ancient treasure so he travelled to an old hideout and searched for a certain item to help him. Even though the cave has become desolate over the years and many of his possessions are no longer kept there, he was able to find what he wanted. S Cells! These are potions that contain the power of Snake magic. Sawada then found Antonio Honda and used the S Cells to turn him into Snake Antonio! Now under Sawada’s spell, Antonio has been ordered to defeat Takagi at all costs and become the 1000th champion!

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Medical Death Match: Survival Tobita Vs Dr. Kiriko
2. Revenge Of The Tiger!: Fumihito Kihara Vs Kotaro Nasu

Two more names have been entered into the Ganbare☆Martial Arts Open Tournament. Ganpuro regular Gorikiko enters representing Judo. Then there is the MMA competitor who is just going by the name of Shibata. Probably best not to get your hopes up thinking it is Katsuyori Shibata. I really doubt it’s him.

UNION “GOLDEN UNION IN SENDAI”, 04/05/2014

3. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi

The team that wins the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship at Korakuen Hall will have little time to prepare for the next challengers. Shuten-dōji have already stepped up for a title shot.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN AOMORI ~DRAMATIC DREAM TSUGARU SHAMISEN~”, 05/05/2014
Aomori Industrial Hall

1. Antonio Honda Vs Soma Takao
2. Danshoku Dino Vs Tetsuya Endo
3. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Guanchulo Vs Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki

Antonio Honda’s placement on the cards is all assuming the snake magic will wear off by the time the shows take place and he will be back to normal by then…

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN YAMAGATA ~DRAMATIC DREAM TAMAKON’NYAKU~”, 06/05/2014
Yamagata Big Wing

1. Kenny Omega Vs Guanchulo
2. HARASHIMA Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga

2. DDT Extreme Title: Danshoku Dino (c) Vs Masa Takanashi

Sanshiro Takagi and his group have challenged the Golden Lovers to a Falls Count Anywhere match.

Sapporo Teisan Hall

1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega (c) Vs KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi

Shuten-dōji are aiming to take away all of the Golden Lovers’ championships. If everything goes his way, KUDO could find himself holding all three KO-D Championships at the same time. Now that would be a drink well earned.

Ganbare Literally Crashes Union Press Conference

March 11, 2014

UNION “MARCH OF THE UNION 2014”, 23/03/2014
Kawasaki Plaza Sol

1. Mitomi Masayuki Vs Yumehito Imanari
2. Seiya Morohashi & Daichi Kazato Vs Ken Ohka & Shinichiro Tominaga
3. Hikaru Sato Vs SAGAT
4. Union Fly To Everywhere World Title: Cherry (c) Vs Mio Shirai
5. Union MAX Title: Ivan Markov (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

The war between Union and Ganbare☆Wrestling heats up in Miyagi with two matches booked between the two promotions. Mitomi Masayuki admits he is in a complex position because his next match is personal. Masayuki went to the same university as his opponent Yumehito Imanari. Masayuki was a first year student while Imanari was a senior when they were both in the college wrestling club. Back then Imanari wrestled under the name Sakuragaoka Kinteki and Masayuki remembered how much he wanted to become a pro wrestler despite suffering many setbacks. However, Masayuki believes that Imanari is not the person he used to know thanks to Ganbare☆Wrestling. He called Ganpuro a vanity project and he will show Imanari what he lacks as a pro wrestler. Imanari’s response was the wrestling ring is just a square and he asked what will Masayuki do when he takes the fight outside of the square. If Masayuki can only wrestle inside the sqaure then Imanari will end him on the 23rd.

union-ganbare-bicycle

The press conference for the show was literally crashed by Ken Ohka, who arrived late, entered the room on a bicycle and cycled into Seiya Morohashi. Imanari then attacked Morohashi and held him in place so Ohka could cycle into him again.

cherry-notmio

There was also a discussion about the Fly To Everywhere Title match. The champion Cherry was in attendance but Mio Shirai was unable to appear due to other commitments. So she was represented by a person holding a drawing of a fox in front of their face. “Mio” praised Cherry for being strong, youthful and always shining. “She” asked how to make “her” ageing face look as youthful and Cherry said “she” needed heavy make up. Cherry also brought up the Age Contra Makeup match she and Shirai were supposed to have in May 2012. Shirai wound up getting injured before the match and had to be replaced my Emi Sakura, who beat Cherry and forced her to finally reveal her true date of birth. Cherry said “Mio” ran away from that match and she still resents her for that.

UNION “GOLDEN UNION IN SENDAI”, 04/05/2014
Miyagi El Park Sendai

1. Tsuyoshi Kikuchi Vs X

Tsuyoshi Kikuchi returns to Union after a two year absence. Kikuchi retired from wrestling back in August 2012 due to a serious injury adding to his already poor physical condition. He has since found a job at a training company in Miyagi where he still works to this day. Now recovered and with permission from his boss, Kikuchi promises to return to Union with a blast!

DDT “JUDGEMENT SERIES 2013 IN SENDAI” Results

March 24, 2013

DDT “JUDGEMENT SERIES 2013 IN SENDAI”, 24/03/2013
Miyagi El Park Sendai
248 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. HARASHIMA defeated Kazuki Hirata with the Somato (8:42).
2. 3 Way Tag Team Match: Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki defeated Hikaru Sato & Tetsuya Endo and DJ Nira & Michael Nakazawa when Honda pinned Nakazawa with the Diving Fist Drop (12:06).
3. MIKAMI defeated Gorgeous Matsuno with the Swanton Bomb (10:41).
4. KUDO & Yasu Urano defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi when Urano pinned Takagi with the Tombstone Piledriver (13:17).
*Yasu Urano wins Sanshiro Takagi’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract.
5. Tsukasa Fujimoto defeated Cherry with the Venus Shoot (9:27).
6. Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Ibushi pinned Oishi with the Sit Down Last Ride (14:01).
7. Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Akito when Irie pinned Akito with the Flying Sausage (12:39).

Shigehiro Irie is still nervous to defend his KO-D Openweight Title against Yukio Sakaguchi on 13/4. Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma encouraged him by saying “You are strong! You’re Champion!” over and over.

Sanshiro Takagi is the first person to lose his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract after getting pinned by Yasu Urano in their tag team match. With the contract in his possession, Urano thinks he has a 98% chance of winning the KO-D Title when he cashes in the contract. But if HARASHIMA cashes in his contract first and loses to the champion, Urano thinks he will then have a 100% chance of success.

Full DDT Cards For March, Val Venis Vs The Godfather?

2. 3 Way Tag Team Match: Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Hikaru Sato & Tetsuya Endo Vs DJ Nira & Michael Nakazawa
3. MIKAMI Vs Gorgeous Matsuno
4. Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi Vs KUDO & Yasu Urano

USA “STARGATE 2013”, 28/03/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. USA World Tag Team Titles:
2. IC Title – 10th Wonder Of The World:
3. $10,000 Backbreaker Challenge:
4. Hall of Fame Ceremony:
5. Recapturing Elizabeth!? Wrestling Soap Opera Final Match:
6. Japan’s First Elimination Chamber Match:
7. Idea Pocket Presents – ALL or NOTHING: “Val Venis” Vs “The Godfather”

USA has struck a partnership deal with the AV company Idea Pocket. Part of the deal involves Idea Pocket presenting their own match for USA’s first show. It’s becoming very clear at this point that USA will not be a PG promotion. All I can gather is the match will be between “Val Venis” and “The Godfather”. Judging by the translation, it sounds like there are going to be a harem of Val Venises and a ho train of Godfathers taking part in the match.

DDT “BIG HOUSE ARROW HOMETOWN 2013”, 30/03/2013
Toyama Takaoka Coeur

1. 3 Way Match: DJ Nira Vs Masa Takanashi Vs Tetsuya Endo
2. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi Vs Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki
3. KUDO & Yasu Urano Vs MIKAMI & Akito
4. Yoshiaki Yago & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Michael Nakazawa
5. HARASHIMA Vs Ken Ohka
6. Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi Vs Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma

Sanshiro Takagi, Keisuke Ishii & DJ Nira all risk losing their Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contracts at this show. HARASHIMA not so much.

DDT “OSAKA 24 ZONE TOUR ~ YODOGAWA DISTRICT”, 31/03/2013
Osaka Yodogawa Kumin Center

0. Dark Match: Gota Ihashi Vs Hideki Shiota

5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie & Keisuke Ishii
6. DDT Extreme Title – Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match: Kenny Omega (c) Vs A.YAZAWA

Kenny Omega still has the DDT Extreme Title around his waist but he will get another tough defence coming up. A.YAZAWA has the advantage since the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match is his speciality.

DDT “APRIL FOOL 2013”, 13/04/2013
Shinjuku FACE

KO-D Openweight Title: Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi

Sakaguchi presents a fresh challenge not just for Irie but for KO-D Championship matches in general. Hikaru Sato was the last person with a shootfighting background to win and compete for the title. No disrespect to the guy but it looks like Sakaguchi outranks him in that area. However, Sakaguchi has only just recently begun to understand and fit into the crazy world of DDT and he hasn’t faced anyone like Irie. A victory for the new champion would make a strong statement from the get go.

Sapporo Teisan Hall

1. KUDO Vs Masa Takanashi
2. Antonio Honda & Yoshihiko Vs Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma
3. Kenichi Yamamoto & HARASHIMA Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Akito

The MMA invasion continues. Former UFC tournament champion Kenichi Yamamoto will be next to make his DDT debut following Yukio Sakaguchi and Kizaemon Saiga. Yamamoto won the UFC 23 Middleweight Tournament in 1999 but his MMA career plummeted down to a 5-11-2 record. He does have wrestling experience however, winning the WAR World 6-Man Tag Team Title with Yoji Anjo & Yoshihiro Takayama way back in 1996.

Yoshihiko finds itself teaming with a member of the Monster Army. Will it get along with Antonio Honda?
