This month there are a couple of big multi-man matches between SCHADENFREUDE International and DAMNATION T.A each with a different stipulation involved. Today’s match was a Best Of 5 series of singles bouts between the two units. Chris Brookes and Daisuke Sasaki privately decided on the order of their teams and handed them over to Yukinori Matsui so the matchups were all a mystery until they took place. In a surprise, Brookes and Sasaki both decided to put themselves in the opening match so they fought each other in a preview for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”! However each match only had a 10 minute time limit and they easily fought to a draw.
The second match had MJ Paul walk down to the ring only to be attacked from behind by a member of the audience. The person turned out to be Masahiro Takanashi is disguise! He tried to pin Paul in the ring with several cradles but was quickly pinned himself when Paul gave him a Lou Thesz Press.
The third match was the DDT debut of Mr. Bueno as he took on Demus. Bueno used the Moonsault a couple of times as well as a 619 and a top rope Frankensteiner. Demus tried to counter him but was pinned down with the Bueno Clutch (Delphin Clutch) to tie the score 1-1.
The fourth match was considered a battle between the two vice captains. Antonio Honda immediately tripped over the ropes when he entered the ring and KANON attacked him before he could tell a Gongitsune joke. When Honda fought back and had a chance to speak, he made a dirty joke about Full Metal Alchemist instead. KANON avoided the Diving Fist Drop though and made Honda submit to the Cobra Twist 2.0.
The fifth and final match of the series had the “captains” Takeshi Masada and Ilusion continuing their feud against each other. Ilusion distracted the ref so the rest of DAMNATION T.A could interfere. Ilusion then attacked Masada with a chair but the ref saw him and called for a DQ. Masada demanded a rematch and Ilusion agreed to it, even claiming he will fight fair and square this time. A ref bump caused DAMNATION T.A to interfere again but this time SCHADENFREUDE ran in to fight them off. Ilusion grabbed the chair again but Masada kicked it into his face and pinned him with his finisher to end the series with SCHADENFREUDE as the winners. Masada called Ilusion a loser who cannot win without his stupid teammates. He also thinks SCHADENFREUDE will win the Elimination Tag Match in a landslide on 8th December. Sasaki told Brookes that 10 minutes is not enough for them. Brookes better prepare for 100 minutes next time! Ilusion also criticised Masada for needing to use a chair to beat him.
To-y got the better of Yuya Koroku again, this time pinning him with the Avalanche Kojima Wonderland in the opening match. To-y told Koroku he needs to get crazier otherwise he won’t be able to beat him & MAO at Sumo Hall. To-y is in such high spirits he thinks he can now beat Tetsuya Endo too! MAO approves of To-y’s spirit and promised to use all of his tag team experience to back him up. Endo said the hottest thing in DDT is not the sauna. It is BURNING!
