Ladybeard’s Contract Ends, Idols Added To TIF Match, Takagi Vs Dieno, Abe’s Next Challenger

October 2, 2020

We have another contract expiration, this time it’s a DDT wrestler. Ladybeard finished up with DDT on 30th September and is now a freelancer. Ladybeard thanked the staff, wrestlers and fans for making great memories with them over the last 5 years. Ladybeard hadn’t wrestled with DDT since August 2018 anyway so this is just a formality.

6. Princess Tag Team Titles Next Challenger Decision Battle: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino Vs Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu

There is a late change in tomorrow’s big match. Yuki Kamifuku broke the ring finger on her right hand and will not be able to wrestle for around three weeks. Under doctor’s recommendation she has pulled out of the main event. Kamifuku is aiming to return on 17th October. Mahiro Kiryu was going to remove herself from the match because of this but Kamifuku convinced her not to waste the opportunity she made for herself. Kiryu agreed and nominated Pom Harajuku to be her new tag partner. Both Daydream and The Bakuretsu Sisters gave their approval for the math to go ahead.

Marika Kobashi’s return match involves her former tag partner from the JK Strikers. However Miyu Yamashita is not on her team, instead they are against each other.

BASARA “BASARA 137 ~GLITTER~”, 27/10/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Masato Kamino
2. IRON FIST TAG Titles: Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (c) Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato

Two new challengers emerge for the Union MAX Title. The champion Fuminori Abe doesn’t want to defend the belt in a 3 Way so Takumi Tsukamoto and Masato Kamino will fight over the No. 1 Contendership instead. Tsukamoto has a pretty strong string of results since BASARA has been running shows again. Kamino has begun winning matches too but the opponents he has beaten so far do not give him the rub to challenge the champion straight away.

BASARA “BASARA 135 ~GLITTER~” Results

September 30, 2020

BASARA “BASARA 135 ~GLITTER~”, 29/09/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. FUMA defeated Tetsuo Usui with a Stretch Muffler (7:37).
2. Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino defeated Takato Nakano & Yasu Urano when Kamino pinned Nakano with the Lariat (11:28).
3. Takuya Nomura defeated Yusuke Kubo with an Inverted Cross Armbreaker (9:20).
4. 3 Way Handicap Match: Gouma Ryu defeated Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato when Ryu pinned Senga with a School Boy (8:30).
5. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated Ryota Nakatsu, Akiyori Takizawa & SAGAT when Kodaka pinned Takizawa with the Isamiashi Zan (10:20).
6. Leo Isaka defeated Daiki Shimomura with an Inverted Hurricanrana (12:14).
7. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) defeated Brahman Kei (w/ Brahman Shu) with an Onryo Clutch (12:13).
*V4 for Fuminori Abe.

The Brahman Brothers disinfected the ring during their entrance because they are still concerned over getting infected with the Coronavirus. Brahman Kei tried to do the twin magic spot with both Brahman Shu and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi at ringside. Fuminori Abe didn’t fall for it but was still distracted long enough for Kei to attack him from behind. Takuya Nomura helped Abe at certain moments to even out the odds. Shu then took out his secret weapon, an Ultimo Dragon mask! He wore it and tried to do Ultimo Dragon moves until Abe blocked the Asai DDT. Abe then used the Irabu Punch to stun The Brahmans into hitting each other. Shy threw powder in Abe’s face in a moment of desperation and Kei used La Magistral Cradle for a nearfall. Abe regained his senses and pinned Kei with the Onryo Clutch to defend the Union MAX Title.

After the match, Takumi Tsukamoto challenged Abe to be his next challenger. However, Masato Kamino also came out asking for a title shot because he pinned Takato Nakano today. Abe called that a weak reason and suggested a No. 1 Contender match between Tsukamoto and Kamino. He would rather choose the challenger that way than defend the title against both in a 3 Way.

Daiki Shimomura and Leo Isaka both gestured they want a rematch with each other.

Daichi Kazato wants to bring the IRON FIST TAG Titles back to BASARA. He and Hiroshi challenged Speed Of Sounds to a title match at the next Shin-Kiba 1st RING show.

The next weekend doubleshot on the DDT calendar has a few match changes after the events of yesterday’s show. Daisuke Sasaki is now out of DAMNATION (also #DAMNHEARTS) and is going for revenge on his own. He doesn’t want anyone helping him so he is getting two Handicap Matches against Tetsuya Endo and a different partner on each show. T-Hawk is on Endo’s team for the match in Narimasu.

The last two matches on the next Korakuen Hall show will be the KO-D Tag Title and KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title defences between Nautilus/DISASTER BOX and Eruption. It has not been decided which title match will take place first but the second match will happen right afterward.

Each match in the Tug Of War challenge will have a 10 minute time limit.

BASARA “BASARA 135 ~BANQUET~”, 29/09/2020

7. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Brahman Kei

The Union MAX Title is getting a new first time challenger. Brahman Kei wants to take the belt from Fuminori Abe. No mention yet if Brahman Shu will be in his corner. Shu originally wanted the title shot but is paranoid he will fall ill before the show. What makes Kei more immune to illness than Shu at this point, I have no idea.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 03/10/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. Marika Kobashi Return Match: Marika Kobashi Vs X
2. Princess Tag Team Titles Next Challenger Decision Battle: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu

Four Princess Tag Team Title defences are in the bag for Daydream but there are still plenty of challengers out there. The Toyo University pair of Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu are looking for a title shot. Kiryu doesn’t want to let the new class below her take the spotlight like Mirai Maiumi & Suzume just did. Kamifuku is also living up to her promise to become stronger for her friends who recently left Tokyo Joshi Pro. However, The Bakuretsu Sisters think it’s time that they get another chance to win the titles. They too have become stronger since the last time they fought for the belts.

The high school student Marika Kobashi is now a college student. Her return to the ring was delayed for months by COVID-19 but now is time for her comeback.

DDT will record a Falls Count Anywhere match on location at the Smile Garden section. Each team will be accompanied by an idol for the match.

2. Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Osamu Nishimura when Kei pinned Hiroshi with the Gotai Fumanzoku (7:18).

*V6 for Speed Of Sounds.
7. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Arm Clutch Manjigatame (14:15).
*V3 for Fuminori Abe.

At the end of the main event, Fuminori Abe thanked Ryota Nakatsu for being a strong rival. Suddenly, Brahman Kei appeared and distracted Abe long enough for Brahman Shu to sneak up and throw powder in his face. The Brahman Brothers then attacked Abe with a Stop sign. They did this because they want to take the Union MAX Title at the next Shin-Kiba 1st RING show on 29th September. Kei will be the one wrestling because Shu is worried he will get sick before the show again. Abe accepted the challenge but was warned by Kei that if he dies, he will fall into hell and be reborn as a maggot! Abe is not part of any unit in BASARA so he asked for Takuya Nomura to help him prepare. As a monk, Abe won’t be reincarnated into a maggot. When he dies he will go to paradise.

Nomura was given the middle finger by Isami Kodaka after their draw.

SAGAT is confirmed to be the newest member of Sparky. He has a new look to fit in with the unit including a yellow Big Van Vader style mask worn for his entrance.

BASARA’s 5th Anniversary show will be held in Korakuen Hall on 20th January.

However the Hidaka match will be a singles match held under tag team rules. Both wrestlers will select a wrestler to stand in their corner and tag in when needed. If they get pinned then the match continues until Shota or Hidaka are pinned. Long story short, it’s a Captain’s Fall Tag Match.

Tokyo Shinagawa The Grand Hall

In sudden news, Natsumi Maki and Mina Shirakawa will be finishing up with Tokyo Joshi Pro at the end of the month. That means this show will be their final matches with the promotion. Both of their contracts are expiring on 30th September but TJPW made the decision not to re-sign them. Both of them have thanked the fans for supporting them and would be grateful if they continue to do so wherever their wrestling careers take them. Maki said her year and 8 months in TJPW were very important and gave her big steps to climb. Shirakawa said she will continue to devote herself every day to grow as a wrestler.

BASARA “BASARA 132 ~BANQUET~” Results

September 8, 2020

BASARA “BASARA 132 ~BANQUET~”, 08/09/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomura defeated Tetsuo Usui & Leo Isaka when Sekine submitted Usui with the Let’s Combine (10:35).
2. Isami Kodaka defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with a Back Roll Clutch (8:25). (Special Referee: Gouma Ryu)
3. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated FUMA & SAGAT when Kamino pinned FUMA with a Lariat (8:47).

5. Minoru Fujita defeated Yusuke Kubo with the Samson Clutch (13:51).
6. IRON FIST TAG Titles: Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (c) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Uranowhen Oosugi pinned Tsukamoto with a Cradle (20:18).
*V5 for Speed Of Sounds.

There was a big upset in Match #3 when Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated FUMA & SAGAT. The finish saw Kamino score the pin on FUMA, without a doubt the biggest in his career. This happened because FUMA hit SAGAT by mistake and SAGAT hit him with a Spear in response. This left FUMA open for Kamino to Lariat him for the victory. Afterwards trouble brewed when FUMA and SAGAT got into a fight. The Iron Family came out to break them up. FUMA left with the rest of the Iron Family but SAGAT stayed in the ring on his own. Sparky members Ryota Nakatsu & Akiyori Takizawa then came out and shook hands with SAGAT. They all left the ring together.

Nakano & Kamino challenged Speed Of Sounds for the IRON FIST TAG Titles after the main event.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Antonio Honda

So far Shinya Aoki has been handling the DDT Extreme Title pretty well. Antonio Honda thinks his matches can be weirder though. Honda is proud of being a weirdo and he wants to give all the righteous freaks in the world more courage to be weird. That is why he is challenging Aoki for the Extreme Title.

The DAMNATION Vs DISASTER BOX Elimination Match gets the main event over the DDT UNIVERSAL Title bout. It has CyberFight VP Naomichi Marufuji in it. Curse that preferential treatment!

BASARA “BASARA 134 ~THE VICISSITUDES OF LIFE~”, 22/09/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Tetsuo Usui Vs Takuho Kato
2. Isami Kodaka Vs Takuya Nomura
3. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Osamu Nishimura Vs Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei
4. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Ryota Nakatsu

The combined yoga powers of Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Osamu Nishimura take on The Brahman Brothers in a rescheduled tag match from the previous Korakuen Hall show last December. Brahman Kei was unable to wrestle at the time so the match was changed into a 3 Way at the last minute.

Two BASARA Vs Big Japan matches are added to the undercard. Isami Kodaka and Takuya Nomura will have their first singles match against each other. The two rookies Tetsuo Usui and Takuho Kato are also going to face off.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS”, 07/11/2020
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Mizuki

The biggest match Tokyo Joshi Pro can offer is happening at the biggest stage on their horizon. Mizuki won the Tokyo Princess Cup two years in a row but still sees herself positioned behind Yuka Sakazaki. There are two reasons for this. One, Sakazaki is the Princess Of Princess Champion and two, Mizuki has never beaten her. Tokyo Dome City Hall is where The Magical Sugar Rabbits will pop at their loudest!
