5. Road To Ultimate Party 2019! Special 8-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie defeated Akito, Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Asuka when Takao pinned Katsumata with the Diving Foot Stomp onto chairs (14:35).
6. DDT Megatonweight Single Match: Yukio Naya defeated Cody Hall with a Back Drop (14:10).
7. Road To Ultimate Party 2019! Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Toru Owashi defeated Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Iino when HARASHIMA pinned Iino with the Somato (20:21).

HARASHIMA thanked a “scary” Toru Owashi for helping get their team the win. HARASHIMA also assured everyone his body is alright even if he still feels a little pain. For now his aim is to win all of the warm up matches left before Sumo Hall.

The bad tension between Yukio Naya and Cody Hall became water under the bridge after their singles match. Naya won the match but offered to shake Hall’s hand afterwards. When Hall went along with it Naya asked him to form a team together. Naya also told everyone he wants to take part in the “BAKUHA KOSHIEN 2019” show happening next month. He’s been in DDT for six months and there is so much he wants to learn including Current Blast death matches.

Chairs were brought into play for the 8-Person Tag Match. Daisuke Sasaki threw one into the ring when the referee was distracted. Shunma Katsumata intercepted the chair from Soma Takao but Sasaki got into the ring with another one and hit Katsumata from behind. Takao continued with the chair attacks until he piled the chairs on top of Katsumata. Takao then finished him off with a Diving Foot Stomp onto the pile. Sasaki told the ALL OUT wrestlers to get ready for more hardcore wrestling at Sumo Hall. He then asked Akito if he wants to change his tag partner before then. Backstage Akito agreed that his partner should be changed. His partner is still Katsumata but now it is the hardcore version of Katsumata!

Yukio Sakaguchi is left wondering about what his weaknesses are in the run up to the D-Ou Grand Prix. He lost to Jiro Kuroshio when he missed the God’s Right Knee, crashed into the turnbuckles and got rolled up in a School Boy. Kuroshio on the other hand is pleased to have won against such a killer wrestler today. He feels a bit prouder going into his match with Tetsuya Endo on 27th October.

For a brief moment Nobuhiro Shimatani was sent to sleep by Isami Kodaka. When he woke back up the match was over but that didn’t stop Shimatani attacking Kodaka and dropping him with a Fisherman Suplex. He yelled that the problem between them can’t end like this.

The team of Antonio Honda & Miyu Yamashita went through three matches so they could find their groove together. They lost the first two matches because Yamashita kept falling for Honda’s fake injuries. Honda had to explain to her that he fakes his injuries so his opponents drop their guard and he can hit them with the Gongitsune. She finally understood and joined in with Honda’s story in the third match. Together with all of the wrestlers from the previous matches, they formed the Gonvengers and successfully launched an attack on Kazuki Hirata. Afterwards Hirata tried to knock out Yamashita with a chop but she blocked it with her chin. Yamashita then hit Hirata with the Crash Rabbit Heat and Honda followed with the Diving Fist Drop to get the team their first win.

Keigo Nakamura’s debut match had the expected result but he was met with respect from Naomi Yoshimura. He got some offence in with a Takedown from behind, a Missile Dropkick and a series of Middle Kicks until some Lariats from Yoshimura put him away.

Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino from Tokyo Joshi Pro announced that they will be entering the Gauntlet Tag match at Sumo Hall! They said if The Steiner Brothers won’t be there then The Bakuretsu Sisters will come out instead!

1. Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Haruna Neko & YUMI when Harajuku pinned Neko with the Pom de Justice (6:57).
2. Hikari Noa defeated Raku with the Uranage (8:02).
3. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Mirai Maiumi when Watanabe pinned Maiumi with the Tear Drop (12:20).
4. ROAD TO Kokugikan Special Tag Match: Shoko Nakajima & Miyu Yamashita Vs Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
5. International Princess Title: Maki Itoh defeated Yuna Manase (c) with a Cutback Cradle (11:16).
*Yuna Manase fails in V1. Maki Itoh becomes the 3rd International Princess Champion!
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Sakisama & Misao (c) defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa when Sakisama pinned Shirakawa with the Academy Award (15:57).
*V3 for NEO Biishiki-gun.

Pink Ready surprised NEO Biishiki-gun with an unexpected attack from the start. Yuki Kamifuku had the clever idea of taping Sakisama’s hands to the rope to keep her out of the match. Sakisama was able to escape by squeezing her hands out of her gloves. Mina Shirakawa hit the Implant DDT on Sakisama late in the match but Misao broke the pin. Biishiki-gun gave Kamifuku the 3D, leaving Shirakawa to fight by herself. She tried to hold on but she fell to Sakisama’s Academy Award kick.

Sakisama called today’s match a wonderful victory. NEO Biishiki-gun will now go on to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles at Sumo Hall but there are no teams good enough to challenge them. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe came out. The two want to team up together and challenge for the titles. Sakisama wasn’t convinced but Tatsumi then went to hug Misao to see if deep down Misao still likes her. Misao pushed her away and said the only things that matter to her is power, strength, the tag titles and Sakisama. She’ll put the titles on the line to prove it. Sakisama agreed to the challenge but she is a little disappointed to be wrestling in Sumo Hall instead of dancing in a ball there.

Well here is a shocker. Maki Itoh is the new International Princess Champion! She was put in danger when Yuna Manase hit a Lariat and followed up with the Suzuki Dynamic finisher. But Itoh reversed the pin and got the three count out of nowhere to win the title! Itoh was in tears afterwards yet she still found the time to give Manase the middle finger. Itoh told everyone she was bullied in school, almost died from depression, got fired from her idol job and even ruined the 4th January main event earlier this year. But now she is a champion! If you can’t stand up in life, just look at Itoh. She will stand up with the title again and again!

Preparations for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019!” saw Shoko Nakajima & Miyu Yamashita versus Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki go to a 20 minute draw. In the final moments of the match Sakazaki gave Nakajima a Complete Shot and was applied an Omoplata when the bell rang. Yamashita and Mizuki had to pull them apart. Backstage Sakazaki said she tried not to get emotional today but she couldn’t help letting her fighting spirit come out. Nakajima also admitted she got hot headed because she did not want to lose. She also thinks the Princess Title Match will be one that many will look forward to at Sumo Hall. Nakajima hopes she and Sakazaki will level up with each other. The longer their match goes, the more she sees the face of a killer in Sakazaki. She looks forward to facing that killer.

After a five month injury absence, Haruna Neko had her first match back today. She took the losing fall so her short term goal is to catch up with the rest of her class. She feels out of sync with them because she was gone for so long.

Two new trainees were introduced to the crowd. Aona is a 20 year old college student. Her goal is to reach Miyu Yamashita. Yurara is a 13 year old junior high school student. Her goal is to reach Yuka Sakazaki.

Konosuke Takeshita and HARASHIMA get to prepare for their Sumo Hall main event while a rivalry between Yuki Iino and Naomi Yoshimura begins to grow. Maybe something will spark off between Shunma Katsumata and Yuki Ueno too.

7. Road To Ultimate Party 2019! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Ken Ohka & Shoko Nakajima Vs HARASHIMA, Isami Kodaka & Yuka Sakazaki

Cram everything in there!

At the end of Chris Brookes’s first tour with DDT he formed a tag team with Masahiro Takanashi called Calamari Drunken Kings. With Brookes coming in for a new tour the team are immediately setting their sights on the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Another new team have also wanted a title shot. That team is the Nautilus duo of Ueno & Yoshimura. The solution is a No. 1 Contenders match! The winners get whatever remains of the 4 Way Tag Title match from Sumo Hall.

There is unfinished business between Jiro Kuroshio and Tetsuya Endo. Part of the reason Kuroshio lost the DDT Extreme Title to HARASHIMA was because he focused too much on Endo in the 3 Way Match. Kuroshio then pinned Endo at last weekend’s show in Sapporo. Endo said that result doesn’t matter because it was in a tag match. They will get a singles match to settle the matter.

Shoko Nakajima said it was a long time since she last struggled out of a match like she today. She learned Yuka Sakazaki has leveled up far more than she thought. She was different from the last time they wrestled against each other, almost like she evolved. Nakajima is climbing a new ladder and she does not want to lose the Princess Title to Sakazaki at Sumo Hall next month.

Rika Tatsumi confronted Misao after Match #5 and hugged her, hoping to bring Hyper Misao back. Misao pushed her back and told her she only cares about strength. Only victory and strength can heal her weakness.

Yuna Manase and Maki Itoh gave each other middle fingers after their match. It was announced at the start of the show that the International Princess Champion coming out of their match will next defend the title on 16th November against a foreign wrestler.

Himawari Unagi dislocated her left elbow during her match, causing her to forfeit against Miyu Yamashita.

*V2 for Shoko Nakajima.

For the second year in a row the Tokyo Princess Cup winner has failed to win their Princess Title challenge. The champion Shoko Nakajima appeared with the original TOKYO Princess Title belt and was given the new 2nd Gen Princess Title belt after defeating Mizuki. The match took a lot out of the wrestlers. Nakajima couldn’t hold her pinning posture after hitting the Northern Lights Suplex. She was able to keep control and pinned Mizuki with the Diving Senton. In her backstage interview, Mizuki admitted that she is not the kind of person who wants to be a main character yet this past summer she overcame many challenges. So she was in fact motivated to become the main character. It was a hard summer for her but she still had fun.

When Nakajima received the new belt she said it felt like she just won a championship for the first time again. She wants to continue winning matches so she can get familiar with holding the belt. Misao came out and congratulated Nakajima, then gave her condolences because today will be the last time Nakajima successfully defends the title. Misao already has the Princess Tag Titles but that is not enough to satisfy her. Nakajima accepted her challenge. She ended the show by saying Osaka has been invaded by the Big Kaiju. She next wants to invade all of Japan!

The entire active members of NEO Biishiki-gun were victorious over the trio of Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi & Antonio Honda. The maid Martha used her mop as a weapon and Yukio Saint Laurent used his injections to knock out Honda & Sakazaki. Tatsumi continued to fight on her own but Misao pinned her with the Vanitas. Sakisama credited her presence in Osaka as the reason why the Hanshin Tigers won their baseball game today.

Gotta give it to Maki Itoh, she was just as determined to scare Su Yung with her screams as Yung was trying to scare her. Their screams together were enough to scare away Daisuke Kiso. Yung blinded Itoh with Red Mist but Itoh tried to fight on by applying a Sleeper Hold. Yung countered it by lifting Itoh onto her shoulders to do the Panic Switch for the win.

After last week’s career high, Natsumi Maki was sent crashing back down to Earth when Yuna Manase pinned her in a trios match. Manase used a Lariat to counter the Backlash. They talked about their history together and how they are like sisters. That led to Manase challenging Maki for the International Princess Title. Maki accepted and said she won a championship within four years of wrestling while Manase hasn’t won any title in seven.

Momoiro Sparkling bounced back from their failed Princess Tag Titles match last week by beating Gisele Shaw & Yuki Kamifuku. Shaw is still looking for a way to avenge her defeat in England to Miyu Yamashita.

The hometown hero Himawari Unagi picked up the win in her tag match.

Mirai Maiumi won her first singles match by beating the other rookie Suzume. Maiumi entered the ring with a Japanese fishing flag with a good fortune written on it. She explained that she grew up near the ocean and her ring name also contains the kanji for “Sea” (海 / umi). She wants to express the feeling of the ocean when she wrestles.

Ohka’s example is the jacket and ten gallon hat he wore during his absence from Ganpro shows last year.

Cody Hall is the mystery wrestler in the opener. He met Antonio Honda and got along with him because the Gongitsune hand gesture resembles the Wolfpac gesture that Cody’s dad Scott Hall is known for.

1. Union MAX Title: Ryuichi Sekine (c) Vs SAGAT

SAGAT pinned and eliminated Ryuichi Sekine at this week’s Shinkiba show. That is enough of a claim for him to get the next Union MAX Title shot. SAGAT has challenged for the title once before, losing to the previous champion Ryota Nakatsu last November.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP 2019”, 29/09/2019
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – 3 Way Match: Jiro Kuroshio (c) Vs HARASHIMA Vs Tetsuya Endo

The grudge between HARASHIMA and Tetsuya Endo has gotten both of them a title match. They wanted the next shot at the DDT Extreme Title but got in each other’s way. Jiro Kuroshio doesn’t want to wait for a single challenger to be determined so he decided to face both of them at the same time.

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ 1 -DDT SPECIAL EDITION-”, 20/10/2019
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

1. Plump BOYZ: Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Kouki Iwasaki
2. MAO UK Expedition BOYZ Send Off Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs MAO
3. Yukihero Pro Wrestling Collaboration Match: Shunma Katsumata & Mizuki Watase Vs Kazuki Hirata & Hiroshi Yamato

The BOYZ brand is getting a fresh start under Akito’s management. Wrestlers booked on the first show will also be appearing at the SHIBUYA FASHION AWARD-BE Vint-Age 2019 festival the same day to promote a fashion brand called Yukihero Pro Wrestling. The main event will feature the wrestlers involved wearing costumes from that clothing line.

Akito doesn’t remember ever seeing MAO wrestle Takeshita in a singles match so he decided to book it before MAO’s excursion. Kouki Iwasaki is being booked on BOYZ because Akito wants to see him interact with DDT wrestlers more often. Higuchi and Yuki Iino are also being booked despite their alliance to the YaroZ brand. Akito believes there are women at these shows who find those kind of men attractive too. Akito plans to present them in a way that makes them more suitable for the BOYZ brand. DAMNATION wrestlers are disallowed except for Nobuhiro Shimatani because he works under Akito at the Drop Kick Bar.

81 wrestlers in total have been booked for the show and each promotion’s main championship will be defended in their own matches.

Kenny Omega returns to wrestle in DDT after a five year absence. A lot has changed since then but for now the people he wanted in his match are his biggest rival (Honda), his first tag partner (Riho, not “him”) and the wrestler who possibly might have caught his attention the most (Miyu Yamashita). Will there be more coming out of this? Wouldn’t be a party without surprises, would it?
