Dino Vs Sapp – The Contract Signing

July 16, 2011

DDT held a press conference yesterday for Danshoku Dino and Bob Sapp to publicly sign the contract for the long-awaited (???) grudge match at Sumo Hall on 24th July. Sapp clearly sees his opponent as a big joke and is treating the match as nothing more than a “easy payday”. However, Dino got under Sapp’s skin when he snuck up and placed a wig on his head. When the contract was signed, Sapp took a big bite out of the piece of paper. Dino meanwhile crumpled up the contract and rubbed it against his crotch and also Sapp’s crotch. Sapp’s final message to Dino was a grim one: “I am far from gay. But I’ll tell you what, I may go to jail…for killing one!”

YOSHIHIKO appeared before the conference began as it was announced he was taking part in the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Battle Royal at the show. He stayed in the room to watch over the Dino Vs Sapp contract signing.

In unfortunate news, it was announced on the DDT website that their Nico Nico Curry restaruant will close down on 24th July. Both Union wrestler Cherry and DDT referee Kiso Daisuke thanked everyone who became their customers during their time working there. DDT still runs the Dropkick Bar and Ebisuko Curry restaurant in Kabukicho, Shinjuku.

Sumo Hall Additions, 5 Vs 5 Elimination, Tag Title Matches

July 4, 2011

DDT “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2011”, 24/07/2011
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

0. Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles: The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa
1. Battle Royal – Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title:
2. Summer Night Fever – 5 Vs 5 Elimination: Sanshiro Takagi, Hikaru Sato, Takao Soma, Kazuki Hirata & X Vs Yoshiaki Yago, Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Super Shit Machine, Kengo Ohka & Minoru Suzuki
3. Special Singles Match: MIKAMI Vs Poison Sawada JULIE
4. Special Singles Match: Danshoku Dino Vs Bob Sapp
5. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) Vs Prince Devitt
6. 3 Way – KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & HERO! Vs GENTARO & Yasu Urano Vs X & X
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs KUDO

Also Appearing: Tsuyoshi Kikuchi, Yuzuki Aikawa, Emi Sakura and Riki Sensyu.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions of HARASHIMA & HERO! will have twice the trouble to handle at Sumo Hall when they defend the titles against two teams. On one side is the former KO-D Tag Champions GENTARO & Yasu Urano. On the other side will be a team featuring either Michael Nakazawa or Masa Takanashi plus a partner of thier choice. Nakazawa and Takanashi will be competing over who gets the spot over the next couple of shows.

The 5 Vs 5 Elimination match features Hikaru Sato and Takao Soma putting aside their differences to fight a common enemy. They along with Sanshiro Takagi and Kazuki Hirata will team up to fight the Susan Shit Hart Superstars. However, The Superstars had a trick up their sleeve and announced that Minoru Suzuki will be part of their team. This leads to a daunting task for Hikaru Sato as he now has a fellow member of PANCRASE Mission as his enemy on the night. But his team has room for one more wrestler to compete. Will Takagi bring along one of his TKG48 buddies to the fight?

Just like last year, Sanshiro Takagi will be pulling double duty on the show. He and Munenori Sawa will have their rematch against The Great Sasuke & Ricky Fuji for the coveted Big China Unified Nakahara Tag Team Titles in the Dark Match of the evening. Legendary referee Kyohei Wada will be the official for the bout once more. The previous match was plagued with countout finishes so this one may very well be Falls Count Anyhwere to determine a clear winning team the first time round.

There is much discussion going on behind the scenes in DDT over who gets the dubious honour of receiving the now traditional “Anal Blast” ceremony to open this year’s show. So far Michael Nakazawa and Batten Tamagawa are the top two choices considered. Nakazawa has been part of the ceremony for the previous two shows while Tamagawa probably realises this is the only chance he’ll ever get to have an important role at a Sumo Hall show, even if it means having fireworks shoved up where the sun don’t shine. This would be a weird time to try and do a segue way connecting Tamagawa’s American flag themed gear to wishing all of the American readers a happy Independence Day, wouldn’t it?

Bob Sapp Needs Your Help

January 31, 2011

Every year thousands of Bob Sapps are left abandoned in the streets of Japan. Hungry, homeless but most importantly alone whenever they step into the squared circle for a freak show fight, they need our time and generosity now more than ever. By donating just ¥4,000,000 a month you can reach out to Bob Sapps in their time of need. With your help we can get Bob Sapps like this one back on their feet and take part in a show at Sumo Hall where they might get molested by a rampaging homosexual. Please, give generously. Thank you.

*No Bob Sapps were hurt in the making of this video.

Golden Lovers Win IWGP Jr. Tag Titles!

October 11, 2010

(Note: Above image is only a placeholder until pics from the show come out. Still adorable though, eh?)

Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega have done it! They went over to New Japan for today’s big “DESTRUCTION ‘10” event in Sumo Hall and defeated Apollo 55 to become the new IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champions when Ibushi pinned Prince Devitt with the Firebird Splash, avenging his loss to the Irishman back at the Best Of Super Juniors final. This gives DDT possession of its highest profile championship yet and arguably crowns the Golden Lovers as the best Jr. Heavy Tag Team in Japan today.

NJPW “DESTRUCTION ‘10”, 10/11/10
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
8,800 Fans – No Vacancy

5. IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Title: Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega defeated Prince Devitt & Ryusuke Taguchi (c) when Ibushi pinned Devitt with the Firebird Splash (15:05).
*Apollo 55 fail in V2. Golden Lovers become the 27th Champions.

DJ Nira’s Evil Plan

August 10, 2010

Step 1: Steal Michael Nakazawa’s “Anus Dynamite”. This was done at the final Shin Kiba 1stRING show before Sumo Hall. To celebrate DDT’s success, Sanshiro Takagi had Nakazawa get ready to position the dynamite where the sun don’t shine and set it off. But before the fuse was lit, Yago Aznable and his crew ambushed them. DJ Nira grabbed the dynamite out of Nakazawa’s nether regions and fled.

Step 2: Attach the Anus Dynamite to Yago’s Space Colony. Set the power to full blast and guide the Colony on course to planet Earth. When entering the Earth’s atmosphere, switch off everything. Gravity will do the rest of the work.

Step 3: Make sure the Space Coloney is still falling down until you crash into “Sumo Palace”. Congratulations, you just performed mass genocide!!

Some early notes from the show:

The attendence for this show is said to be 8,800 fans, which is another great success for DDT. So much so that the annual Sumo Hall show is here to stay with the next one planned for 24th July, 2011. The arena was said to be 60% full by the time the dark match began. The show opened with an appearance by the former ring announcer for New Japan, Kero Tanaka who joined Michael Nakazawa as they watched footage from last year’s event of Nakazawa’s backside exploding. The Wild Snake team were at odds during the Tag Gauntlet and the pairing of Posion Sawada JULIE and Manabu Nakanishi eventually fell apart with JULIE casting his snake magic on his own partner! Kota Ibushi made an appearance at intermission and wished his B.F.F. Kenny Omega the best of luck for his match against Naomichi Marufuji. Despite being victorious, Marufuji suffered an arm injury during the bout and had it taped up as soon as the match ended. After Danshoku Dino’s victory over HG & RG, Dino asked HG if he really was ready to retire. They were interruped by a video message by Genichiro Tenryu, who urged HG to continue wrestling. HG decided not to retire and made out with Dino to celebrate. With the KO-D Openweight title back round his waist, HARASHIMA is now a 4-time holder of the title.

Riho & Mr. #6 Find New Partner, Campsite Pro Wrestling Returns

July 22, 2010

Riho & Mr. #6’s new tag team partner for Sumo Hall will be the boss of Big Japan, the Great Kojika. It hasn’t been long since Kojika last wrestled in the Ryogoku. He appeared in a Battle Royal for Masahiro Chono’s 25th Anniversary show in October 2009 and is fresh off of defeating recently lost to GENTARO at the Freedoms show in Korakuen Hall from a month ago. So now we have a 68 year old man teaming with a 12 year old girl and an 8 year old masked boy.

Looking ahead to the future after Sumo Hall, the next DDT show to look forward too will be their annual visit to the Yamanashi Natureland park for the Campsite Pro Wrestling show. The event will be held on the 12th September and so far Sanshiro Takagi is announced to compete.
