Instead Tsukamoto got one up on Urano by choking him with a plastic bag. Look they might be getting rid of lighttubes in deathmatches soon, he’s looking for a replacement and the giant hammer isn’t cutting it.

Akiyama Joins DDT, Max Heart 1st Rounds, Watase Injured, Ueno Can’t Decide

February 15, 2021

Today a press conference was held by CyberFight to give some big news for DDT and NOAH. On the DDT side, Jun Akiyama has signed a one year full time contract with DDT. On the NOAH side, Keiji Muto has signed a two year contract with NOAH. President Sanshiro Takagi said the signings were made because he believes these two treasures will be the driving force behind CyberFight becoming No. 1 in the pro wrestling world. Takagi originally asked Akiyama to join DDT back in January after having conversations with All Japan at the end of last year. Akiyama held off on making a deal because of his knee surgery and asked to wait until after “KAWASAKI STRONG 2021” to make a decision. As soon as the main event was done and the show was over, Akiyama accepted Takagi’s offer to become DDT’s head coach. Akiyama knew of the risks involved and wants to put everything he has into DDT. Naomichi Marufuji believes Muto’s starpower is important to help make NOAH become a global company. He also has a strong sense of responsibility towards the company after becoming the GHC Heavyweight Champion. Muto said as long as NOAH has the No. 1 wrestler in the industry, CyberFight needs to become the No. 1 organization as well.

1. Yuki Ueno & Yusuke Okada Vs Keigo Nakamura & Toui Kojima

The winning team receives an All You Can Eat voucher for the Genghis Khan Kirishima restaurant which is sponsoring the show.

DDT “DAY DREAM BELIEVER 2021”, 14/03/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT UNIVERSAL TITLE: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs X

There are so many people Yuki Ueno wants to defend the DDT UNIVERSAL Title against that he can’t decide who to pick next. He’s on the lookout for somebody to get his attention.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2021 ~DDT 24TH ANNIVERSARY~”, 28/03/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi

There are only two wrestlers who have beaten Akiyama in DDT so far. Tetsuya Endo and Kazusada Higuchi. Akiyama got his win back from Endo yesterday and he won’t consider himself a deserving KO-D Openweight Champion until he avenges his embarrassing defeat to Higuchi. So that’s the main event of the 24th Anniversary show set.

There has only been one person who has given backlash to Akiyama’s coaching in DDT. Danshoku Dieno doesn’t like the way Akiyama sees pro wrestling which is understandable given how much Dieno has represented DDT in the past. Akiyama welcomes the criticism and invites Dieno to show him his point of view. But he also warns that as head coach he won’t let members of the roster rebel against him just for the sake of it.

DDT “KAWASAKI STRONG 2021”, 14/02/2021
Culttz Kawasaki

1. Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs Yusuke Okada & Toui Kojima
2. Yuki Iino Return Match ~ DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Daisuke Sasaki, Soma Takao, Mad Paulie & Yuji Hino Vs Konosuke Takeshita, Akito, Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Iino
3. Super Joshi War ~Blooming Flowers~: Saki Akai & Maya Yukihi Vs Saori Anou & Miyako Matsumoto

7. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi
8. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Jun Akiyama

When we last left Tetsuya Endo, he teased about having a secret training partner to help him prepare for Jun Akiyama. His only hint was this trainer is somebody who knows Akiyama inside and out. Well the secret has been revealed and that trainer is Kenta Kobashi! Endo has been training at Kobashi’s fitness gym in Tokyo after he approached Kobashi for advice. Kobashi knew about Endo beating Akiyama during the D-Ou Grand Prix but explained that a tournament match is different from a championship match. Akiyama won’t allow himself to lose to the same opponent twice in a row. He will also be more ruthless because he is now a freelancer and failing to win a championship will affect his wrestling career more than usual. His advice to Endo is to ruthlessly target Akiyama’s knees, especially the left one that he just had surgery on. If Endo can make Akiyama panic, then Endo has a chance to win. Simply doing the same stuff he did in the Grand Prix match won’t work a second time. Kobashi wants Endo to be bold and dynamic to broaden his wrestling style.

Kobashi is throwing his support behind Endo to defend the KO-D Openweight Title. He hopes to see Endo get fired up to do the Shooting Star Press just like he he used to fire up before doing the Moonsault. He also gave Endo dating advice when he found out Endo is single. Endo explained his type to him. He likes women with big boobs such as Tomomi Morisaki. Kobashi bragged about meeting Morisaki at a public event just one month ago. Also as a champion, he explained if Endo treats the belt well the belt will be happy and will always come back to him.

Kobashi will attend the show to provide special guest commentary for the main event. Akiyama has since pointed out that whenever Kobashi appears to watch his title matches, he usually wins.

Yuki Ueno is hoping to clear out all of his bitter memories of Yukio Sakaguchi beating him up. If he successfully defends the DDT UNIVERSAL Title against him then he can spend the rest of 2021 having fun and loving saunas. Ueno has been getting advice from Shinya Aoki to prepare for the match. Sakaguchi thinks the message that has been sent over the last few weeks is he’s strong while Ueno is weak. The two met for commemorative photo during the week and Sakaguchi tried to grab the belt from Ueno. Ueno told him if he wants to take pictures with the belt he should win it on the 14th. Sakaguchi punched Ueno in the stomach and posed with the belt.

Most of the women are excited for their match. Saki Akai & Maya Yukihi are motivated to team together and even form a competitive rivalry of some sort. Saori Anou on the other hand isn’t pleased to be teaming with Miyako Matsumoto. She would much rather be on the same team as Akai or Yukihi. Matsumoto says the best thing about DDT is anything is possible and you are free to do anything. To her the charm of joshi wrestling is not just the glitter but also the grime. She wants Anou to understand that so they can work as a team.

GANBARE☆PRO “CLIFFHANGER 2021”, 21/02/2021
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. Shota’s Independent Journey: Shota Vs Hyper Brave G-Valion
2. THE HALFEE Vs Watase Manase: Moeka Haruhi & Shu Sakurai Vs Mizuki Watase & Yuna Manase
3. Ganpro Vs Aka Rangers: Ken Ohka & Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Takashi Sasaki & GENTARO
4. GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Keisuke Ishii, Kouki Iwasaki & HARUKAZE (c) Vs Asuka, Hagane Shinno & Shinichiro Tominaga
5. STOP THE Hidaka! Special Single Match: Yumehito Imanari Vs Ikuto Hidaka

I love the name of the main event. ZERO1 had “STOP THE Matsunaga”. Ganbare☆Pro gets “STOP THE Hidaka!” It’s only fitting for the ZERO1 connection that Yumehito Imanari becomes maybe the last man standing in the way of Ikuto Hidaka. Imanari made a promise to be the messiah for Ganpro.

The new GWC 6-Man Tag Team Champions already have a road map set out. The trio called DREAMS HARU TRUE want to defend the belts against Pocchari Joshi. However, Asuka demanded her team with Hagane Shinno & Shinichiro Tominaga get another shot at the titles first because she will only wrestle in Ganpro for championships. She gets what she wants because Ken Ohka is worried she will walk out of the company, especially right before she could potentially become a breakout star in the AEW women’s tournament.

Ohka gets a second chance against the Aka Rangers. That’s if they can make it to the venue in time. Takashi Sasaki & GENTARO already have another match happening at a FREEDOMS and 2AW co-promoted show in Chiba earlier that day.

Even though he no longer has the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title around his waist, Shota still wants to bring the independent spirit to Ganpro. He is bringing in Hyper Brave G-Valion for a match. G-Valion is from a small Tokyo promotion called BRAVES.

8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita & MAO

MAO is happy to see his generation are now the main eventers of DDT. It’s a fight he never wants to give up. Konosuke Takeshita agrees and said the DDT Sauna Club runs in the centre of DDT. They main event Korakuen Hall, they’re main eventing Nagoya Congress Center and now they want the KO-D Tag Team Titles to add to their growing championship haul. These are just the kind of opponents Kazusada Higuchi is looking for. Also Sakaguchi disagrees about the age thing. Everyone from HARASHIMA to Danshoku Dieno are all doing their best no matter their age.

BASARA “BASARA 150 ~KINKON ICHIBAN~”, 25/02/2021
Shinjuku FACE

1. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Yasu Urano

2. DDT Extreme Title: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs MAO

No matter who wins in the main event, the DDT Extreme Title will stay within the Sauna Club for the time being. Shunma Katsumata is also someone with a busy schedule coming up. He is entering the Ikki Tousen Death Match tournament in Big Japan next month.

The book has been booked.

4. Ganpro Vs Aka Rangers Full-Scale Battle: Ken Ohka & Shota Vs Takashi Sasaki & GENTARO
5. The Strongest Amateur Vs The Strongest Outside Enemy: Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Ikuto Hidaka

Rekka appeared in BASARA last week and is now showing up in Ganbare☆Pro. It’s good to see him in this corner of the wrestling scene again after he left DDT three years ago.

Asuka returns from injury.

DDT “THIS IS OUR 9TH NARIMASU PARTY! 2021”, 20/02/2021
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. Toru Owashi, Yukio Naya & Toui Kojima Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Keigo Nakamuta
2. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Yuji Hino & Mad Paulie Vs Yuki Iino & Shunma Katsumata
3. Young Communication Generation Vs DDT Legend Army!: Akito & Kazuki Hirata Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno
4. Mizuki Watase Vs Yusuke Okada
5. DAMNATION Vs Junretsu!: Tetsuya Endo, Daisuke Sasaki & Soma Takao Vs Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani
6. Road To NAGOYA! Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi & Kazusada Higuchi Vs Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yuki Ueno

The schedule for the next fortnight is a little light but it’s all preparing for two big shows DDT are having this month. There is “KAWASAKI STRONG 2021” on 14th February and this will be the first DDT show happening after it (not counting the DAMNATION show on the 19th).

DDT “DDT DOESN’T KNOW GUNMA YET 2021”, 21/02/2021
Gunma YAMADA Green Dome Maebashi Sub-Event Area

1. Daisuke Sasaki Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Yukio Sakaguchi & Yukio Naya Vs Shunma Katsumata & MAO
3. Yuki Ueno & Yusuke Okada Vs Chris Brookes & Toui Kojima
4. DDT Variety Group Sangokushi!: Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs Toru Owashi
5. The Mountain Of Akagi Is Only Here Tonight! Maebashi Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuji Hino Vs HARASHIMA, Kazusada Higuchi & Antonio Honda
6. Junretsu Vs ALL OUT!: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Hideki Okatani Vs Konosuke Takeshita, Akito & Yuki Iino

The other big show is “FRIENDSHIP, EFFORT, VICTORY IN NAGOYA 2021” on the 23rd, which is two days after this.

Interesting to see the relationship tree Yusuke Okada is quickly forming. On one side he is butting heads with Mizuki Watase over their connections to Jun Akiyama. Then over on the other he won over Yuki Ueno’s respect and there’s potential for a regular tag team there. That’s if there isn’t a dangerous sense of competition between them that could get in the way.

138 Fans

1. Michio Kageyama & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Gota Ihashi & Rion Mizuki when Hiroshi pinned Mizuki with the Ground Cobra Twist (11:19).
2. Tatsuhiko Yoshino & Daichi Kazato defeated Soma Takao & Shota when Yoshino pinned Shota with the Thunder Crash (13:01).
3. Toru Sugiura defeated Akito with the Swift Driver (17:12).
4. Double Main Event I – 6-Man Tag Match: Ryuichi Sekine, Kazuki Hirata & FUMA defeated Yukihiro Abe, Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie when Hirata pinned Abe with the Egoist Driver (17:20).
5. Double Main Event II: Hideki Okatani defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Double Arm Suplex (13:35).

The Young Communication reunion displayed just how far that generation of wrestlers has spread across the wrestling scene. There were wrestlers representing DDT, Big Japan, FREEDOMS, BASARA, Ganbare☆Pro, #STRONGHEARTS, Team Dera Pro Wrestling and even an acknowledgement towards defunct promotions like Union Pro and Guts World. Some wrestlers have changed a lot over the decade, others haven’t at all.

The teams for the main event were revealed right before the match began. Shigehiro Irie tearfully hugged Ryuichi Sekine after the match while Kazuki Hirata invited all of the wrestlers into the ring. Shota proudly told everyone this is the Young Communication Generation. FUMA remembered when all of them used to wear similar wrestling gear but now they all have their own unique and gorgeous outfits. Keisuke Ishii wants another reunion so everyone here can wrestle each other again. Yukihiro Abe was honest and admitted he doesn’t have any good memories of the Young Communication shows. But today was the opposite for him. Hirata said today proves that the younger generation has a lot of characters.

Everyone exited the ring, walked to the entrance and took a bow. But instead of leaving, they all returned to ringside. Akito explained that there was one more thing left to do before the show ends. Everyone here was young up and coming wrestlers a decade ago. None of them were main event ready but the Young Communication shows they put on gave them the chance to be in a main event. It is time to pass the torch and let the new generation get their chance because it is difficult to do this in DDT these days. Akito invited Hideki Okatani and Keigo Nakamura into the ring. He was giving them the main event! Okatani was able to avenge his defeat to Nakamura from the start of the year and came out on top.

Akito praised Toru Sugiura for growing into a great champion. Sugiura was also complimentary towards Akito for becoming a Vice President.

Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
147 Fans

Rika Tatsumi noted today was the first time she teamed with The Magical Sugar Rabbits since the Osaka Sannin Matsuri trios tournament one year ago.

The Tokyo Joshingers confronted The Bakuretsu Sisters and challenged them to a match. Shin Ultra Shoko said if the Sisters are the sun setting, then the Joshingers are the sun rising. She wants proof that the Sisters have the strength to keep peace in Tokyo Joshi Pro so they should put the Princess Tag Team Titles on the line. Nodoka Tenma pointed out that Shin Ultra Shoko is only around for a month but Shoko told her not to worry about the details. They agreed to have the title match at the 11th February Korakuen Hall show.

After winning her match, Maki Itoh demanded to fight NEO Biishiki-gun in a 2 Vs 1 Handicap Match at Korakuen. Tetsuya Koda would not agree to it and there was no response from NEO Biishiki-gun to accept the challenge. When she calmed down backstage, Itoh found Miyu Yamashita eating gummies and told her to team up so Koda would book the match as a tag bout.

Sekine Taking A Break, This Weekend’s Cards

He has lost his motivation to wrestle and feels it would be disrespectful to the fans if he continued. Sekine had even considered leaving BASARA but talked to the promotion over the decision. BASARA decided it would be better for him to take a good rest away from the ring. Sekine promises to do his best for his remaining matches this month.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 IN NARIMASU!” Results

December 12, 2020

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 IN NARIMASU!”, 12/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Mad Paulie & Nobuihiro Shimatani defated Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani and Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura when Shimatani pinned Nakamura after a Combined Body Press (8:13).
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Shunma Katsumata (4) defeated Soma Takao (6) by Countout (10:05).
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Jun Akiyama (8) defeated Yuki Ueno (6) with the Front Neck Lock (11:51).
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Makoto Oishi (4) defeated Tetsuya Endo (7) with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (19:26).
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Akito (7) defeated Yukio Sakaguchi (6) by TKO with a Modified Figure 4 Leg Lock (8:56).
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: MAO (6) defeated Chris Brookes (6) with an Inside Cradle (14:28).
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Konosuke Takeshita (8) defeated HARASHIMA (7) with the German Suplex (20:39).

A Block

1. Konosuke Takeshita (8)
2. HARASHIMA (7)
-. Akito (7)
4. MAO (6)
-. Yukio Sakaguchi (6)
-. Chris Brookes (6)
7. Daisuke Sasaki (2)

B Block

1. Jun Akiyama (8)
2. Tetsuya Endo (7)
-. Kazusada Higuchi (7)
4. Soma Takao (6)
-. Yuki Ueno (6)
6. Makoto Oishi (4)
-. Shunma Katsumata (4)

The dust has settled and no tiebreakers were needed. The D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 final will be between Konosuke Takeshita and Jun Akiyama! The A Block was decided in the last three matches of the show with Takeshita winning the group by beating HARASHIMA. Takeshita’s injured left arm was targeted in by HARASHIMA in a last ditch attempt to avoid the German Suplex. But Takeshita wrestled his way into position to pin his opponent with the move. Takeshita gave HARASHIMA credit and said today’s match was the strongest he’s ever been. HARASHIMA joked and asked Takeshita if his arm was sore. Akiyama came out and told Takeshita he already beat him on 3rd November. If Takeshita wants revenge he needs to recover from his injury and bring his best on 27th December. Takeshita told Akiyama he won’t lose to him again.

A lot of come from behind results happened for the blocks to end up the way they did. Chris Brookes lost to MAO to get knocked out of the running. MAO added a Reverse Quetzalcoatl to his move set but that wasn’t enough to win. Instead he had to counter the Praying Mantis Bomb into a Small Package to pin Brookes. MAO admitted he would like to have seen Brookes reach the final because they are friends outside the ring (they go to karaoke and sing “One Night Carnival” a lot) but he wasn’t going to lose to him today. MAO is also feeling tired of wrestling in singles matches. He wants to do tag team wrestling again.

The other wrestler in A Block to fall at the final hurdle was Yukio Sakaguchi. He was only interested in grappling with Akito so he did not throw many kicks in their match. Akito got the better of him on the mat and tangled him into a modifed Figure 4 Leg Lock. Sakaguchi refused to give up but the referee had to end the match when it was clear that Sakaguchi was done for. Sakaguchi admitted his knee wasn’t 100% after his match with HARASHIMA and Akito was smart to go after it. Akito wasn’t fully motivated to wrestle today because he wouldn’t reach the final. He wondered if Sakaguchi intentionally invited him to mat wrestle to give him that motivation. He found a new way to do a Figure 4 so in the end he did get something out of it.

Over in the B Block, Tetsuya Endo was stunned by a submission loss to Makoto Oishi! The shock result happened when Oishi grabbed Endo’s leg to avoid the Canadian Destroyer and got him into the Fujiyama Knee Lock. Endo was managing to withstand it until Oishi put all of his power into the hold, getting the tapout. The result meant Akiyama was going to the final instead of Endo. Oishi said it would have been uncool if the leader of Junretsu couldn’t help get Akiyama to the final. For anyone who thought it’s time for Oishi to retire, his message today is it’s not his time yet! He’s still getting better and he is not going to retire before Akiyama.

The penultimate B Block match was where Akiyama cemented his spot in the final. He took over when Yuki Ueno missed the BME and hit the Exploder Suplex. He then did the Wrist-Clutch Exploder but Ueno kicked out at two. Akiyama didn’t waste time and he put Ueno in the Front Neck Lock for the submission win. Backstage Akiyama gave his thoughts on the current wrestling scene. The likes of Ueno need to step up more. They’re not going to catch up to Akiyama if they’re just aiming to get along with him. There is a difference between trying to get better together and trying to get better alone. Akiyama is in DDT to compete and that difference is why he is beating wrestlers half his age. He says it’s fine when Sanshiro Takagi says he wants his company to catch up to New Japan and overtake them. But when you say that then you must treat the business as a competition and you must compete. You can still go and create interesting ideas that are different from the norm, but if it’s not done with the intention of competing then pro wrestling will eventually have nothing left.

Soma Takao’s chance to win the block was ruined thanks to Shunma Katsumata. He has to give some of the blame to Nobuhiro Shimatani though. Also himself but he still blamed Shimatani. He used the steel basin in the match but Katsumata fought back with Lego. Shimatani grabbed the basin but hit Takao by accident. Takao then purposely hit him with the basin and chased him out of the room with Katsumata following them. While the 20 count was being made, Katsumata returned to the ring first. Takao then came back with his legs taped together forcing him to hop back to the ring. He was about to break the count when Katsumata dropped the basin on his head, knocking him down and leaving him counted out. Katsumata said the tournament has been hard for him because he injured his knee during the summer. That is why he’s been cheating throughout the Grand Prix so he could still leave an impression with his matches. Today was the end of his tournament run but as a pro wrestler he will continue to rise.

In the non-tournament 3 Way Tag, Shimatani jumped onto Mad Paulie’s back and together they squashed Keigo Nakamura.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

December 12, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 12/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Marika Kobashi defeated Sena Shiori with a Front Neck Lock (5:17).
2. Nao Kikuta & Mirai Maiumi defeated Hyper Misao & Moka Miyamoto when Kikuta pinned Miyamoto with the Shiden Kai (9:15).
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Haruna Neko & Suzume when Saint-Michel pinned Suzume with the Tarte Tatin (7:54).
4. Miyu Yamashita & Hikari Noa defeated Maki Itoh & Raku when Yamashita pinned Itoh with the Skull Kick (11:21).
5. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu & Pom Harajuku when Aino pinned Harajuku with the Venus DDT (15:39).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).

The Magical Sugar Rabbits Vs Daydream went the distance. Rika Tatsumi had Mizuki in the White Dragon Sleeper until Yuka Sakazaki broke it up. Sakazaki then prevented Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe from giving Mizuki the Daydream Eternity. Tatsumi fought off the Sugar Rabbits by herself but when she climbed the top turnbuckle, Mizuki threw her off with an Avalanche Cutie Special. Time rang out and the bell rang before Mizuki could go for the pin. After the match Sakazaki wanted to speak but Tatsumi took the microphone from her. She couldn’t win today but she will definitely win on 4th January! Tatsumi wants to become Princess Of Princess Champion and make Tokyo Joshi Pro as famous as The Beatles! There’s not much time left until the Korakuen Hall show so Sakazaki feels she now has to rush towards 4th January. Mizuki threw her support behind Sakazaki and said she believes in her.

After Match #4, Maki Itoh demanded Tetsuya Koda to book her versus Miyu Yamashita in a singles match on 4th January. Koda informed her that they were randomly drawn together earlier to have a singles match in Nagoya on 19th December. Itoh still wants the match to happen in Korakuen because this week is her 4th anniversary of her pro wrestling debut and it was against Yamashita. They also headlined Korakuen two years ago so the latest rematch must happen in the same venue. Yamashita’s answer was immediately cut off by Itoh who said she will beat her in Korakuen! Yamashita made mention afterwards that there would be little point in having the Korakuen match if she beats Itoh in Nagoya.

Mei Saint-Michel was excited to wrestle a cat and asked Sakisama if they could take Haruna Neko back to their mansion. Sakisama took a close look at Neko and got her face scratched. Saint-Michel then stepping in to protect Neko from Sakisama. Neko then scratched Saint-Michel in the face, ending their brief friendship. Later in the match, Suzume was taken out when she slipped on the tray trap. Saint-Michel ended up using an assisted Shiranui from Sakisama to pin Neko. Sakisama scolded her after the match and said she doesn’t need a pet. She still has more trials to go through in order to become a great lady. The next one will be at Korakuen Hall so today was their last appearance in 2020.

Trainee Arisu Endo will have her debut match on 4th January. She does not know who her opponent is yet but she will do her best no matter what.
