1. Exhibition Match: KANNA Vs Korei ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).
1a. 1 Minute Overtime: KANNA defeated Korei with a Crab Hold (0:59).
2. Chikage Kiba defeated Yuka Sakazaki with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch (7:25).
3. Nonoko & Ririko Kendo defeated Miyu Yamashita & Shoko Nakajima when Nonoko submitted Nakajima with the Dragon Sleeper (10:00).

Prior to their singles battle next month, Miyu Yamashita and Nonoko competed on opposite sides in a tag team match on today’s show. Nonoko’s plump body continues to be too powerful for the other Tokyo Joshi Pro to handle. She used the STO (Space Tornado Oppai) and the Boinmaker to wipe out Yamashita before submitting Shoko Nakajima with a modified Dragon Sleeper that smothers the victim with Nonoko’s bust. Nonoko’s partner Ririko Kendo showed good ring presence by preventing Yamashita from entering the ring and stopping the hold.

Chikage Kiba returned to action for the first time after passing her exam entry into university. She had some trouble with Yuka Sakazaki who used some trickery and Rocket Punches to get the upper hand. Kiba fought back with an Octopus Hold and a Crossface Chickenwing. Sakazaki played possum and pretended to cry so Kiba would drop her guard but Kiba avoided the cheap shot and pinned Sakazaki with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch.

Korei had her debut performance for Tokyo Joshi against KANNA, who fought in a new black and yellow costume. The match was only 3 minutes long because it was just an exhibition but when the time expired without a winner Tetsuya Koda allowed them to continue for one more minute. Korei fought hard by Body Slamming KANNA and hitting some elbows. But KANNA then speared Korei and used a Boston Crab to submit her with one second to spare.

Saki Akai will compete on the big 5th April Kawasaki show.

harashima-sakaguchi-kod

After a brief detour, HARASHIMA is once again a DDT Triple Crown Champion! He defeated the person I believed had the best chance of winning the KO-D Openweight Title from him and in the process won back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. On paper, HARASHIMA Vs Yukio Sakaguchi looked to be as hard hitting as they come. Plenty of kicks and knee strikes were on offer along with some Triangle Chokes and Sleeper Holds, the move Sakaguchi used to beat HARASHIMA the last time they were in the ring together. This time HARASHIMA was able to escape the hold and strike back with the ever reliable Somato. Sakaguchi kicked out but HARASHIMA quickly replied with another Somato to put him down for good. The champion told Sakaguchi they just had a thrilling match and it was so fun for him. “Thanks a bunch!” They hugged and shook hands afterwards.

6man-homosapiens

Danshoku Dino and Makoto Oishi have finally gotten their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles back, this time with Aja Kong along for the ride. Kong was more than suitable for the job, matching strength for strength with Toru Owashi in an impromptu sumo bout. She was about to do the same with Akebono until Danshoku Dino got involved and chased after the AJPW Triple Crown champion. Dino eventually got what he wanted, delivering a big old Lip Lock to Akebono. Kong did the same to Sanshiro Takagi, stunning him enough for Dino to deliver the Danshoku Driver and win the titles. Dino called his new team the Homo-sapiens. Kong thought she didn’t have to team with them anymore but decided to stay.

takeshita-endo

Tetsuya Endo ends the year on a low note by losing to his fellow generational opponent Konosuke Takeshita in one of three highlighted singles matches held throughout the show. Endo cried out how useless he was, it’s no good if he doesn’t win and it’s no good if he’s not strong. He is upset he lost to a high school student and swore he will beat Takeshita someday. Takeshita recognised the judges who voted him the Tokyo Sports Rookie of the Year and said “It was not wrong to choose Takeshita.”

ibushi-nira

DJ Nira tried to trick Kota Ibushi before their match by sending out Gota Ihashi in his place. And in his clothes. Nira then launched the ambush, yelling “Take that, a present from me!” Ibushi simply moved out of the way and then proceeded to dominate the match. Nira had some glimpses of a comeback but at the end quickly submitted to a Front Necklock.

akai-kudo-urano

Saki Akai came out dressed as a sexy Santa and her partners KUDO and Yasu Urano were her reindeer. GAMI took her temporary role in the Monster Army seriously and was there to toughen up Akai. She and Antonio Honda were in tune with each other, both giving out Bionic Elbows to KUDO and Urano. But in a Christmas miracle, Akai leapt onto both of them from the tope rope. Urano cut off Daisuke Sasaki and gave him a Frankensteiner, leaving him right on target for KUDO’s Diving Double Knee Drop for the three count. Akai thanked KUDO and Urano in a backstage interview for supporting her because she still feels nervous in the ring. Her goal for next year is to win the Iron Man Championship.

sato-nakazawa-venomarm

Hikaru Sato found the perfect piece of clothing to battle Michael Nakazawa and the pair of shorts he uses to fuel the Ultimate Venom Arm. Sato brought out a school swimsuit and used it to do his own Ultimate Venom Arm to pin Nakazawa. After the match Nakazawa asked Sato to team with him again as they would be invincible with their shorts and swimsuits. Sato ignored him.

irie-akito

Team Dream Futures reflected over their performance throughout 2013. Shigehiro Irie became KO-D Champion and recorded more defences in a single title reign than anyone else in the belt’s history. Keisuke Ishii charged into All Japan to sort out an old grudge with the promotion he has held ever since he trained in their dojo. He now hopes to play a central role in “cheerful wrestling” for DDT. Soma Takao meanwhile was obsessed with talking about the colour red.

kasai-hirata

Kazuki Hirata ran through a gauntlet of wrestlers in a pre-show trial to prove he is not a “boring shit” wrestler. He had a bad start losing to Tomomitsu Matsunaga but bounced back by beating Gota Ihashi. Guanchulo stopped him from winning two in a row yet Hirata avoided two straight defeats by pinning Choun-Shiryu. His last opponent was a big surprise, the “Crazy Monkey” Jun Kasai! Even worse, he was armed with a barbed wire baseball bat which he used to great effect. Hirata ended the series with a losing record of two victories and three defeats. Afterwards Kasai said he was supposed to be spending quality time with his family for the holidays before DDT contacted him to appear. He told Hirata that Takagi was just treating him like a toy and he himself had just beaten him up for fun. He wished him luck to become better and hoped to fight him again in DDT when he improves.

A Homoiro Clover Z Vs Up Up Girls challenge is set for 19th February in Shinjuku FACE. The aim of the event is to show both the beauty of wrestling and the beauty of idols.

*V3 for HARASHIMA’s KO-D Title. V1 for HARASHIMA’s Iron Man Title. Antonio Honda fails in V2. HARASHIMA becomes the 24th DDT Extreme Champion!

HARASHIMA continues to dominate in DDT and now finds himself as a Triple Crown Champion! He defeated Antonio Honda in a triple title match. HARASHIMA defended his KO-D Openweight and Iron Man Heavymetalweight Titles while Honda put his DDT Extreme Title on the line. It was a chance for Honda to bring out his best for the championship just like he did against GENTARO and Dick Togo over two years ago. But HARASHIMA proved too strong and was the last man standing. After the match HARASHIMA told Honda he is amazing and thanked him for a fun match. Amon Tsurumi approached the champion and asked him who he wanted to face in Korakuen Hall on 17th November for a KO-D Title match. However, HARASHIMA instead wanted to defend the DDT Extreme Title and he wanted to defend it against Honda! The two shook hands to confirm the rematch.

Akebono may be the new AJPW Triple Crown Champion, but he had more pressing matters to deal with today in DDT. That’s right, he had to defend the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles! He, Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi were able to beat Team Dream Futures to mark their second defence of the titles. Takagi said Team Drift were strong but were also stunk as opponents. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi showed up afterwards to challenge the champions and Akebono was not happy to see Dino. Since Akebono will be busy in All Japan, Takagi arranged a Six-Man Tag Team match between himself, Owashi & Kazuki Hirata against Dino, Oishi & their currently unknown partner to determine if they will be No. 1 Contenders. Dino told Akebono he is looking forward to facing him. Akebono then told Takagi to “Please win!”

The Golden Lovers have become the No. 1 Contenders for the KO-D Tag Team Titles after winning the 3-Way Tag match. They will face Yuko Miyamoto and the new BJW Death Match Champion, Isami Kodaka at the 17/11 Korakuen show.

Saki Akai told Mio Shirai after their tag match that she does not play around. She told the crowd that she was really happy to wrestle here because she was born in Osaka and her father competed and even retired in this building. She promised to be stronger when she returns. She also thanked Yukio Sakaguchi for encouraging her and wants to team with him again.
