The annual New Year’s Eve Pro Indie Wrestling event in Korakuen Hall will be extra special this year. FIGHTING Samurai TV!, the home of DDT Dramatic Fantasia, BJW Deathmatch Wars, Occupation Of The Indies and other programming dedicated to pretty much every single active Japanese wrestling company you can think of, will be celebrating its 15th Anniversary this year and the big New Year’s Eve event will be hosting the celebrations. Mita Sayoko and Carlos The Mexican Mole, the hosts of Occuptation Of The Indies, will be responsible for looking over the card.

One of the early stories set up for the show is a conflict building up between Ken Ohka from Union and Ryuichi Sekine from K-DOJO. It has led both men forming seperate teams to face each other in a big challenge (or series of challenges) at the show. Both Ohka and Sekine have been told to go look for wrestlers from all across the Japanese indie scene and get them to join their respective side. The captain of the winning team will be rewarded with a special segment dedicated to him on a future episode of Occupation Of The Indies.

Dramatic Fantasia: Now With More Union!

February 22, 2011

Starting this Thursday on Samurai! TV, DDT’s weekly television show Dramatic Fantasia will start dedicating one episode a month to the Union sub-brand. With Union growing as a promotion in its own right and planning to hold more shows than ever this year there was still the problem of how fans would get to see footage of the recent events. Dramatic Fantasia has dedicated episodes to Union in the past but they were few and far between and were mainly done so we could see Shuji Ishikawa’s run as the KO-D Openweight Champion. Now the problem has been solved with the upcoming episode showing matches from the 3rd February Shinjuku FACE event main evented by the match between Ishikawa and Tsuyoshi Kikuchi. The Union episodes of Dramatic Fantasia will feature a special guest for commentary ever episode with the current queen of boing boing, Yuzuki Aikawa being the first guest.
