DDT “HELL GATE DAI BUKAI”, 13/12/2020
Hell Gate

1. DDT Extreme Title – Hell Gate Dai Bukai For 5 People: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Amateur Wrestling “Nariagari” Five Elite People

Away from DDT, Danshoku Dieno started his own little project for training amateurs into becoming pro wrestlers. DDT would mention it here and there to help Dieno get some applicants but otherwise not much was ever made of it. All of a sudden, Dieno tells Sanshiro Takagi he has five elite students ready to hunt Takagi for the DDT Extreme Title! From the start of his title reign, Takagi has said he will defend the belt against anyone including amateurs. He will travel to a place described as a Hell Gate to fight these elite amateurs.

BASARA Update, Usui Leaving Wrestling For Now, Tomorrow’s Match Orders

November 28, 2020

There is an update from BASARA over the members who went into self-quarantine this week. Earlier in the week Daiki Shimomura, Tetsuo Usui and Yuya Okada were in close contact with a person who was suspected to have Coronavirus (it’s not Yasu Urano, he is a separate case). This person has since reported that their PCR test came back negative and the people mentioned above are all free to return. Shimomura and Okada have ended their self-quarantine. Usui has as well but he also decided to take a break from pro wrestling. Usui also works in a welfare facility outside of his wrestling career. He had permission from BASARA and his other job to do both pro wrestling and social work but COVID-19 has made balancing those two parts of his life difficult. After this week’s scare, he made the decision to take a break from wrestling until the epidemic is over.

BAKUHA KOSHIEN “BAKUHA KOSHIEN 2020 ~30TH ANNIVERSARY OF CURRENT BLAST~”, 29/11/2020

2. Mizuki Watase Vs Maku Donaruto
3. Yuna Manase Vs Ayumi Hayashi
4. Rikidozan III Vs Taiho III: Chikara & Yumehito Imanari Vs Yukio Naya & Hoshitango Imachi
5. First In History! Air Time Bomb & Current Blast Bat x 3 Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Mecha Pandita & Rambo Kawamura Vs Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Hidetaka Monma

Here’s the match order tomorrow. The show should end up being quick and to the point. They’re here for the explosions so no point keeping them waiting for long.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 IN OSAKA!”, 29/11/2020
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall

-. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: HARASHIMA (6) defeated Daisuke Sasaki (2) by Forfeit.
1. Antonio Honda Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Blow Away The D-Ou GP 2021 From The DDT Variety Team!: HARASHIMA & Toru Owashi Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi (3) Vs Soma Takao (4)
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Makoto Oishi (2) Vs Jun Akiyama (2)
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Tetsuya Endo (5) Vs Yuki Ueno (2)
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Yukio Sakaguchi (4) Vs MAO (2)
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Konosuke Takeshita (2) Vs Chris Brookes (4)

HARASHIMA is currently on top of the A Block but he already got his points from tomorrow’s forfeit. Yukio Sakaguchi and Chris Brookes can catch up to him. Over in the B Block there will be a DAMNATION wrestler in first place after tomorrow’s show. If Tetsuya Endo loses he may have to share the spot with his enemy Kazusada Higuchi. But if Higuchi loses to Soma Takao then Takao could leapfrog over Endo.

Meanwhile Daiki Shimomura, Tetsuo Usui and referee Yuya Okada have gone into quarantine after coming into close contact with someone who has the virus while wrestling for other promotions (it is unclear if they are referring to Urano).

The new main event will be 6-Man Tag Team Elimination match with teams decided right before it takes place.

BASARA “BASARA 142 ~THE 9TH FOX PRINCE~”, 28/11/2020
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Yusuke Kubo & Takato Nakano Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Fuminori Abe
2. Daiki Shimomura Vs SAGAT
3. Isami Kodaka & Banana Senga Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino
4. Ryuichi Sekine, Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato Vs FUMA, Tetsuo Usui & Tsutomu Oosugi

Team Isami: Isami Kodaka, Ryota Nakatsu, Ryuichi Sekine, Yusuke Kubo, Banana Senga, Daichi Kazato, Daiki Shimomura and Takato Nakano

Team Abe: Fuminori Abe, Takumi Tsukamoto, FUMA, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi, SAGAT, Masato Kamino and Tetsuo Usui

Both of BASARA’s day and night shows this Saturday will be entirely between two teams captained by Isami Kodaka and Fuminori Abe. Every match on the shows will be scored based on the results and whichever team ends the day with the most total points will be the winner. On the afternoon show, each match is 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss. In the evening show, the scoring for wins are different. Singles matches are worth 1 point, tag matches are worth 2 points and the 6-Man Tag is worth 3 points.

DDT “EXTREME RECAPTURE STRATEGY”, 02/12/2020
Tokyo Savage Field

1. DDT Extreme Title: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Rambo Kawamura

Sanshiro Takagi’s first DDT Extreme Title defence ended in disaster when Rambo Kawamura ambushed the champion and took the belt hostage! Guerilla tactics will be needed for Takagi to get it back because Kawamura has fled to the Savage Field, an outdoor area somewhere in Tokyo used for airsoft activities, shooting ranges and other gun hobbies.

DDT “OH LIFE IS ABOUT PRO WRESTLING”, 04/12/2020
PIA LIVE STREAM

1. DDT Vs Big Japan Pro Wrestling Full Scale Proxy War: Pokotan Vs Death Kamo-kun
2. Single Match Where Life Intersects: Yasu Urano Vs Makoto Oishi
3. Street Wrestling In Nemuro Where I See What Samson Miyamoto Left Behind: X Vs X

The mascots of both DDT and Big Japan face off. I suppose Pokotan and Death Kamo-kun will have a wrestling match but who knows what Danshoku Dieno wants them to do. He is hyping up the show by saying it will be something he has never seen anyone else do and it won’t broadcast anywhere outside of his Pia Live Stream.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 06/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Mahiro Kiryu

Last month, Yuki Kamifuku and Mahiro Kiryu were supposed to team together in Narimasu and fight for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. Kamifuku had to pull out of the match with a broken finger. When Kiryu challenged her for the International Princess Title this week, the champion knew it must take place in Narimasu for that reason.

Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel will be on the show. Two things happen every time NEO Biishiki-gun reappear in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Sakisama and her loyal partner go after the Princess Tag Titles and they end up feuding with the newer members of the roster. Suzume & Sena Shiori look to be the feud if Saint-Michel’s immediate opinion on them is anything to go by.

Long ago, way back in February of this year Homoiro Clover Z reunited at a BOYZ show. Their return was met with defiance from the also reunited NωA and the two sides argued over who the real music idols of DDT were. As a member of both units, Makoto Oishi was stuck in the middle and unable to choose a side. A decision was made to do an Oishi Contra Oishi match with the winners getting Oishi all to themselves. The idea was forgotten about when BOYZ came back in August but it’s happening here on Christmas Eve! Oishi has to wrestle for both teams too.

There is one other match to be announced.

BASARA “BASARA 140 ~THE 7TH FOX PRINCE~” Results

November 15, 2020

BASARA “BASARA 140 ~THE 7TH FOX PRINCE~”, 14/11/2020
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Yusuke Kubo defeated Masato Kamino with a Modified Gedo Clutch (11:06).
2. Asian Kung-Fu Generation Presents A Tragedy Of 4,000 Years In China! Phantom Curse Township 4 Way Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated FUMA, Daiki Shimomura and Takato Nakano when Hiroshi pinned Shimomura with a School Boy (10:10).
3. Isami Kodaka defeated Daichi Kazato wirh a Tombstone Piledriver (10:38).
4. IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT – Round 1: Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated Fuminori Abe & Tetsuo Usui when Sekine submitted Usui with the Let’s Combine (16:16).
5. IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT – Round 1: Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano when SAGAT pinned Urano with the Goregrind (17:25).

The second IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT semi-final will be Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita Vs Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT. After the main event, Nakatsu called it the de facto final because Sparky beat the new Union MAX Champion in Takumi Tsukamoto and a respected veteran in Yasu Urano.

The rules for the 4 Way Match were created by Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. He was inspired by the Jusenkyo springs from Ranma 1/2 where stepping into the water will transform people into something else, like a cat for example. Sprinkling water onto them would turn them back to normal. So in this match wrestlers began acting like cats whenever they were thrown out of the ring.

Kendo Kashin In TJPW? IRON FIST TAG Continues, D-Ou Comments

November 13, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 14/11/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Shoko Nakajima & Suzume Vs Nao Kakuta & Pom Harajuku
2. Hyper Misao Vs Moka Miyamoto
3. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Maki Itoh Vs Mahiro Kiryu
4. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Mirai Maiumi Vs Yuki Kamifuku, Marika Kobashi & Hikari Noa
5. Sakisama Vs Sena Shiori
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Raku Vs Miyu Yamashita, Miu Watanabe & Haruna Neko

It’s a fresh new chapter for Tokyo Joshi Pro. We have newcomers joining Yuka Sakazaki in the champion club with no immediate challengers for any of the titles on the horizon. Sakisama is returning which is usually a sign that NEO Biishiki-gun is looking for new members. Nao Kakuta makes her Tokyo Joshi debut.

We now know why Kendo Kashin showed up to “WRESTLE PRINCESS”. He approached Tetsuya Koda declaring himself the new part-time coach for TJPW! He spoke to Koda in a “Western” accent, explaining he can use his world class coaching skills to make Tokyo Joshi world class. That will result in Tokyo Joshi becoming World Joshi, or WJ for short. Koda said he was grateful for the offer but turned Kashin down. A world class coach means he would have to be paid a world class salary and Koda just can’t do that right now. Kashin insists he can do a great job because the “WJ” roster is full of gold eggs. With his teaching they can wrestle anywhere from the Budokan and the Tokyo Dome to the Capital Wrestling Center and the ThunderDome!

BASARA “BASARA 140 ~THE 7TH FOX PRINCE~”, 14/11/2020

5. IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT – Round 1: Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano Vs Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT

One side of the semi-final bracket is filled. This show determines the other half. Takumi Tsukamoto has all the momentum behind him as the new Union MAX Champion. The previous champ Fuminori Abe has to move on and not let that loss get to him.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 IN KORAKUEN HALL!”, 22/11/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Under Match: Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura
1. 4 Way Tag Match: Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Soma Takao & Mad Paulie Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Daisuke Sasaki

4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – A Block: Akito Vs MAO
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs Jun Akiyama
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yuki Ueno
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 – B Block: Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata

I was invited to record a preview podcast of the D-Ou Grand Prix for subscribers to the Wrestling Omakase patreon. Had plenty to talk about with each of the participants and what matches we think you should look forward to. They will also be covering the tournament with podcast coverage after every show on the patreon.

The majority of the wrestlers made public comments about the tournament today. In the B Block, Jun Akiyama is being targeted by everyone. Tetsuya Endo is certain their opening match will determine who makes the final. Endo says if beats Akiyama he will abstain from all remaining block matches. But if he loses to Akiyama then he will forfeit his remaining block matches. I can’t tell if we’re supposed to take this seriously based on DAMNATION’s recent broken stipulations.

Soma Takao’s motivation is down. Nothing can match the high he got from wrestling CIMA then teaming with him to beat HARASHIMA & Naomichi Marufuji. No prize money for winning the Grand Prix isn’t helping either. Yuki Ueno has become more conscious of wins and losses since becoming the new DDT UNIVERSAL Champion. He believes Endo thinks the same. Shunma Katsumata’s confidence has grown ever since he got compliments from Akiyama. He hopes he will get Akiyama to join the DDT Sauna Club.

Kazusada Higuchi said he will beat Akiyama because he will not give up the top spot to somebody who is on the verge of finishing his wrestling career in Japan. Oishi revealed he volunteered to enter the Grand Prix. He has never done a round robin tournament before so he wants to show everyone what he’s got. Akiyama wants to win every match, reach the final and win the whole thing. If he can’t beat Endo then he won’t be able to win the tournament.

Over in the A Block, Konosuke Takeshita has been questioning himself ever since his loss at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”. Is his chosen path the wrong one? He cannot take a new step until he goes back to Akiyama. Daisuke Sasaki said he has a secret weapon to win. It’s roll ups. HARASHIMA has had a tough go throughout 2020. He lost the KO-D Openweight Title in January and couldn’t wrestle as much as he wanted because of the epidemic. He is also coming off a loss at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” so he is motivated to win the Grand Prix.

Chris Brookes admitted he does not want to wrestle Akiyama in the final. He’s sure Akiyama will beat him up. He does want to face Ueno again so he’d love to see him win the other block. MAO thinks he was entered into last year’s tournament on a fluke. This year he thinks he is worthy to be a part of it. He is looking forward to his first singles match against Brookes. Akito was to make an ordinary tournament look extraordinary. Yukio Sakaguchi sent a message that just said “Kill everyone!”
