DDT “IBARAKI BLOCK MEMORIAL”, 25/10/2014
Ibaraki Bando Hokoten
800 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Makoto Oishi & Gota Ihashi when Irie pinned Ihashi with the Beast Bomber (8:00).
2. 4 Way Tag Team Match: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata, Antonio Honda & Tetsuya Endo and Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when HARASHIMA pinned Nakazawa with the Somato (22:23).

DDT travelled over to Ibaraki to wrestle inside a street market as part of a campaign to bring visitors into the area. A mat was placed out to act as the squared circle and the wrestlers in the first match stayed inside it. The main event however ignored it pretty quickly and took the fighting over to different stalls and shops. Tables, ladders and chairs were also involved in the match. Sanshiro Takagi took a page out of Jun Kasai’s book and leapt off a ladder to splash Tomomitsu Matsunaga through a table. The finish came when HARASHIMA hit the Somato on Michael Nakazawa while he was sitting on the chair.

UNION “SEA WRESTLING”, 23/08/2014
Kanagawa Ohama Beach Keio Camp Store
150 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Kaori Yoneyama & Daichi Kazato defeated Cherry & Tomoya Kawamura when Kazato pinned Kawamura with a Sliding Seaweed Lariat (10:32).
2. 3 Way Falls Count Anywhere Match: Isami Kodaka & Mitomi Masayuki defeated Hiroshi FUKUDA & SAGAT and Shuji Ishikawa & Jinbeizameeen when Kodaka pinned SAGAT with the Diving Double Knee Drop into the sea (20:21).

Union’s trip to the beach was almost ruined thanks to rainy weather. The rain began as the wrestlers were placing down mats to wrestle on. In the first match Cherry and Kaori Yoneyama were fighting over the right to be crowned as the Union Mermaid. Daichi Kazato and Tomoya Kawamura were also involved to make it a tag team match. Beach balls and rubber rings were used as weapons and the match finished when Kazato wrapped his arm in seaweed and hit Kawamura with the Sliding Lariat. Kazato and Yoneyama dove into the water to celebrate.

The main event was a 3 Way Falls Count Anywhere Tag Team match. The teams were Hiroshi Fukuda & SAGAT, Shuji Ishikawa & former Okinawa Pro wrestler Jinbeizameeen (FUMA) and Isami Kodaka & Mitomi Masayuki. The rain was even worse for this match as everyone brawled in the water. Kodaka tried not to fight in the water because he had some fresh death match cuts on his body and he didn’t want them to be touched by sea water. SAGAT wound up being buried in the sand. A watermelon was brought into the match and Jinbeizameeen smashed it with a Diving Headbutt. Ishikawa put Masayuki through a plastic table with the Splash Mountain. The brawl found its way over to some rocks by the sea and several of the wrestlers were knocked off the rocks and into the water. Kodaka jumped off the rocks and landed a Diving Double Knee Drop onto both Fukuda and SAGAT in the water to win the match for his team. A barbecue was held by the wrestlers for the crowd after the show.

DDT “DDT X BIS LIVE STREET WRESTLING”, 05/06/2014
Tokyo Asakusa Flower Mansion
370 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

Falls Count Anywhere Captain’s Punishment Death Match: Jun Kasai (C), Hiroshi Fukuda, Emi Sakura & DJ Nira defeated Sanshiro Takagi (C), Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Michael Nakazawa (26:40).
a. Sanshiro Takagi (C) pinned Hiroshi Fukuda with a Stunner (0:12).
b. Emi Sakura submitted Michael Nakazawa with an Embarrassment Stretch (5:12).
c. Makoto Oishi pinned Hiroshi Fukuda with a School Boy (8:44)
d. Jun Kasai (C) pinned Michael Nakazawa with the Pearl Harbour Splash through a table (10:40).
e. Michael Nakazawa pinned Hiroshi Fukuda with the Ultimate Venom Arm (12:24)
f. Hiroshi Fukuda pinned Sanshiro Takagi (C) with the Perfect Plex (26:40).

DDT teamed up with girl group BiS for a combined concert and Anywhere Pro Wrestling match. The rainy weather in the theme park set the scene for the show’s storyline. After BiS advertised their final concert to be held in July, Sanshiro Takagi and his team approached the stage and interrupted the performance. Takagi wanted to put a stop to the concert. Hiroshi Fukuda came to the rescue and was joined by Emi Sakura and DJ Nira, who both had tickets for the show. Jun Kasai also showed up because he has history with BiS. He was the cornerman for BiS member Pour Lui when she wrestled at Sumo Hall for DDT last year. Takagi called in back up and out came Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi and Michael Nakazawa. An 8-Man Tag match was decided there and then but with a stipulation attached. Kasai and Takagi became the captains of their team and the match would only end when one captain pinned the other. For every other result, BiS would get to perform a song whenever Kasai’s team won a fall and a BiS member would be punished whenever Takagi’s team won a fall.

The match began on the stage and Takagi immediately pinned Fukuda with a Stunner. He decided to punish one of the BiS girls by writing on her face with a marker. The match restarted near a rollercoaster where Sakura embarrassed Nakazawa into submission by pulling down his shorts and tying him into a ball with them. BiS performed the song “Mylxxx”. The match then went over to the Space Shot ride where Fukuda was pinned again. A BiS member was forced to take a ride in the Space Shot where she was launched 60m into the air. Kasai won the next fall by putting Nakazawa through a table with the Pearl Harbour Splash. As a result BiS got to perform “Spell Of The Sun” while riding on a merry go round. Fukuda once again lost a fall after Nakazawa took him down with the Ultimate Venom Arm. Nakazawa then decided Pour Lui should be given the Ultimate Venom Arm too! Lui got her revenge when Kasai gave her a barbed wire baseball bat. She took out her frustrations on Takagi’s team with the bat, even striking Dino in the rear end with it. Kasai hit Takagi with the bat and Fukuda finally got his moment when he pinned Takagi with the Perfect Plex, winning the match for his team! Takagi admitted defeat and BiS performed one more song to end the show.

DDT “HANDMADE IN JAPAN FES’”, 20/07/2013
Tokyo Big Sight

5 Way Falls Count Anywhere Match: HARASHIMA defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Kota Ibushi, Isami Kodaka and Michael Nakazawa when HARASHIMA pinned Nakazawa with the Somato (23:04).

DDT visited the Handmade In Japan Festival in the Tokyo Big Site to show how creative pro wrestling can be. The 5 Way Falls Count Anywhere match was exactly the kind of chaotic nonsense you would expect from DDT. Sanshiro Takagi wanted to fit in and create something home made so he built a fort with folding chairs. HARASHIMA threw Michael Nakazawa into the fort, knocking it down and sending chairs flying everywhere. Kota Ibushi took regular time outs so he could visit each of the exhibition booths set up around the festival. Isami Kodaka retreated into a bathroom and returned with a giant hammer. Ibushi moonsaulted off of a giant blue ball. Takagi kept trying to rebuild his fort only for someone else to destroy it. The match ended when HARASHIMA placed Nakazawa sitting onto a chair in the wreckage and then knocking him down with the Somato. After the match Takagi greeted the audience and told them organisations like DDT like to create things. But there is no creation without destruction. Now they have finished destroying everything, it is up to the people to create new stuff and make sure they are handmade.

DDT “PLANT WRESTLING”, 29/05/2013
Miyaji Ironworks
146 Fans – Overcrowded

2 Vs 2 Vs 3 Handicap Falls Count Anywhere Match: Kazuyoshi Sakai, Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Kota Ibushi and Michael Nakazawa & Hiroshi Fukuda when Sakai pinned Fukuda with the Danshoku Driver through a table (33:39).

It was a cloudy evening in Miyaji when DDT took over the Miyaji Ironworks plant for their annual Falls Count Anywhere match held in that location. This time around the match saw Kazuyoshi Sakai from Muscle return to action to team with Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi. Their opponent was supposed to be Sanshiro Takagi and his Elite Street Troops. They turned out to be Kota Ibushi and Michael Nakazawa! Actually it was just Ibushi. Nakazawa wasn’t needed and Takagi was confident enough that he and Ibushi would win a 3-on-2 Handicap match. Nakazawa argued that he should be included but his complaints fell on deaf ears. That was until Hiroshi Fukuda showed up. He was impressed by Nakazawa’s spirit and offered to team with him and turn the match into a three team affair.

The match itself saw Fukuda bring out a drum filled with lime powder that eventually covered everyone in a cloud of dust. Takagi brought along a guitar and sang “Lullaby of the Jagged Heart” before hitting his opponents with it. Ibushi Moonsaulted off of a telephone pole. According to Ibushi this is either the 3rd or 4th time he jumped off a telephone pole. He was in elementary school when he did it the first time. Sakai put on Dino’s tights and gained the power of Danshoku. He put Fukuda through a table with the Danshoku Driver and pinned him to win the chaotic match.
