Today’s show was a statement from DDT to tell everyone they are now going full steam ahead towards “ULTIMATE PARTY 2026” and beyond while also saying one last goodbye to maybe its most controversial unit in company history. In the main event Strange Love Connection got the better of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC in an Elimination 8-Man Tag Match. Within SLC, it was The Apex who were involved with the first half of eliminations. Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya double teamed Hinata Kasai to take him out of the match first. But things went awry between them and Antonio Honda redirected Naya into eliminating Iino with a Big Boot out of the ring. Honda and Naya then eliminated each other when a struggle over the top rope ended with both of them falling to the floor. Chris Brookes and MAO relied on their skills to create the rest of the eliminations. Brookes submitted KANON with the House Piano Death but he and HARASHIMA couldn’t capitalize on beating the last man left, MAO. Instead MAO pinned HARASHIMA with the Bridging Gedo Clutch, leaving himself and Brookes as the final two. A ref bump caused the eliminated wrestlers from both teams to storm in and cause some chaos, leading to Brookes giving MAO the Praying Mantis Bomb for a nearfall when the ref recovered. Brookes went to do his finisher a second time but MAO countered it into a Small Package in midair to get the three count out of nowhere. After the match MAO talked about the different directions he and Brookes took. Now they both lead their own units to fight each other in a Korakuen Hall main event. Brookes told MAO that their KO-D Openweight Title match at Sumo Hall will determine which unit is better.

The show wasn’t over yet at this point. MAO turned to Iino and reminded him there are two things Iino said he wanted to do. Iino then called out Danshoku Dieno for one last match with him! They were meant to have a DDT Extreme Title match together in March 2025 but it was cancelled when Iino suffered an orbital fracture. That match has been on Iino’s mind ever since and he needs it to happen before he leaves DDT for NOAH. Dieno asked Iino if it was really him asking for the match or if it is Yuki “Sexy” Iino from the salacious unit they were in together a few years ago called Pheromones? Iino answered it was simply coming from his normal self. Dieno did not want to hear that and he walked out to the back. Suddenly the familiar voice of Dieno filled the room, except this time it was Dieno in his Pheromones form. If the normal Yuki Iino wanted the match then he would have to do it against Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno!

An impromptu match began between Dieno and Iino. After a quick exchange of signature moves, Dieno began to strip out of his costume and encouraged Iino to do the same. Iino fought the temptations and froze before pulling off his cap to shout “Jonetsu!” out loud. Iino didn’t join in with Dieno, instead he hit him with a Lariat and then pinned him with the Spear. Iino was in tears after the match while he talked about how important Pheromones was to him, helping him grow into the wrestler he is today. Dieno said Iino had a second piece of unfinished business so he will allow him to go do it. Yuki “Sexy” Iino has been expelled from Pheromones! Dieno told him not to dare live a life he will end up regretting and then left the ring.

With Pheromones now permanently sent out to pasture, Iino brought up his second and last piece of business. Ever since The Apex was formed Iino and Naya have never had another singles match against each other. Naya admitted he wanted to challenge Iino to a match but didn’t think he would get a chance. He isn’t going to cry over Iino leaving despite how lonely he will feel without him. At Sumo Hall they will fight each other one more time and Naya will make Iino feel the deepest regret he will ever have!

Ryusuke Taguchi has successfully defended the DDT Universal Title twice in two days this weekend. Yesterday he beat Dick Togo at a New Japan show to retain the championship and today he got the better of Akito to remain champion again. Both wrestlers today had the same gameplan of targeting the opponent’s legs and working in ways to apply the Ankle Lock. Taguchi altered his Dodon finisher to be more of a releasing slam so Akito couldn’t counter it. Some Kneecrushers weakened Akito enough for him to finally give up when Taguchi put him in the Cross Ankle Hold. Akito thanked Taguchi after the match for showing respect to DDT during his reign so far. Taguchi explained he is doing it because DDT have entrusted him with the belt.

Taguchi was in the middle of announcing his next title defence will be on 29th November when To-y suddenly got into the ring to challenge him. To-y said he wants to experience every single side of Taguchi from his skills to his “afro” persona. Then once To-y gets his fill he will beat Taguchi and win the Universal Title from him. Taguchi said he stopped paying attention to To-y’s challenge when he realized he shouldn’t be taking him seriously. He isn’t sure if To-y’s crazy personality is just an act so he’ll give him the title shot to figure out which of them is crazier.

After that match was decided, Taguchi and Kazuma Sumi revealed to everyone their team name for the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League being held in New Japan. They are called Sumi 55 (“Sumi GoGo” much like Apollo 55 of old) and they promise to come back to DDT as tournament winners! Backstage Taguchi said he wants to see Sumi spread his wings and take on the world. If Sumi 55 finds success as a team then Taguchi may consider the two of them go after the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

A successful title defence is now under paleyouth’s belt after Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku defeated ROMANCE DAWN with the KO-D Tag Titles on the line. Soma Takao is now a freelancer just like his tag partner Shota and the two thought they pay DDT a visit and take their tag titles away. But Koroku kicked out of the Official Endless Waltz and gave Takao the Intercept DDT off of the ropes. Masada followed up with a Triangle Kick and the champs then finished Takao off with their German Suplex/Knee Kick finisher.

The champs along with Daichi Sato and Bunbun got together after the match so all of paleyouth could celebrate the victory together. All of a sudden the cameraman at ringside started sticking up his middle finger at them. It turned out to be Ilusion behind the camera! Hideki Okatani then ran into the ring and attacked paleyouth from behind with a bamboo stick while Ilusion filmed it. The two of them challenged Masada & Koroku for the KO-D Tag Titles and they will get the match at Sumo Hall on 3rd November. Backstage Ilusion said he doesn’t care who the tag champs are, he just wants to add a 10th and 11th belt to his current collection of championships. He also said there is no way he and Okatani will lose to a team that are closer to thirty than he is!

In the match before that, DAMNATION T.A retained their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles against NωA Jr. The presence of MJ Paul gave DAMNATION T.A the legally questionable numbers edge as he made up for the champs getting hit with a lot of big dives early on. He got called into the ring after Daisuke Sasaki pushed down Yukinori Matsui. The plan backfired after Ilusion brought in a chair and accidentally hit all of his partners with it by accident. Shunma Katsumata also tricked Ilusion into hitting himself with the chair by bouncing it off the top rope. The match came down to Sumi finding ways to roll up Sasaki with the School Boy. Sasaki kept kicking out and eventually he countered the School Boy into a cradle where he grabbed the bottom rope for leverage. Matsui somehow didn’t see it and counted the pinfall to give DAMNATION T.A the win. Later backstage, Sumi told Katsumata & Yuni he wants to take a break from NωA Jr. for a while. It’s been something he’s been thinking about all weekend even though he previously said the group would stay together going forward.

There was an important announcement regarding Shinya Aoki that was given out during the show but I’ll get to that later. His tag match on the show happened first. Junta Miyawaki had to do most of the hard work surviving against Jun Akiyama. Aoki made it look easy going up against Daichi Sato and used the Aoki Clutch on the youngster to win the match.

Match #2 might break the record for the shortest ever wrestling match to somehow also be around 15 minutes long. Dieno wanted to give Kaisei Takechi the Lip Lock during his entrance. Takechi dodged him and Dieno ended up Lip Locking Matsui instead, knocking the ref out. Then when The 37KAMIINA made their entrance, To-y felt it was the right time to roll up Yuki Ueno and try to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from him. He failed but Kazuki Hirata then tried the same thing. Ueno kicked out of that too but Super Sasadango Machine then jumped on top of him to get the pin and become champion. Ueno quickly won it back by giving Sasadango a Shining Wizard at ringside. While all of this was going on, Dieno was still chasing Takechi while To-y had all of a sudden made his way up to the balcony teasing a massive dive onto everyone below! Takechi was willing to catch him with the others until Dieno chased him over to the other side of the room and the others all followed, ruining To-y’s big spot. To-y came up with a new idea to wheel over a cart while everyone was fighting in the aisleway. That backfired when Dieno took over the cart and formed the Hell Gate while Sasadango pushed him toward Takechi & Ueno. Takechi jumped out of the way at the last second but Ueno got a face full of Dieno’s Hell Gate. He fainted and Dieno pinned him to win the title. To-y then jumped onto Dieno with a Cross Body Block to win the belt from him. After that, To-y was chased down to ringside where he tripped and fell over. Sasadango caught up to him and did the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock onto the floor to become the new champion. Sasadango then went up to the commentary table to celebrate. Takechi caught up but instead of attacking Sasadango, he bowed and convinced him to start dancing instead. It was all a trick so Takechi could knock Sasadango out when his guard was down. Dieno stopped Takechi from pinning him so the special guest commentator Yui Yoshida decided she would pin Sasadango and win the title for herself after everyone had all taken each other out! Dieno immediately put her in a Sleeper Hold to win back the belt. He then tried to give Ueno the Danshoku Nightmare over on the bleachers but Takechi knocked him down and Ueno rolled Dieno over to pin him and win the title once more.

By this point Kazuki Hirata grabbed the microphone and told everyone he only came to Korakuen Hall today for one thing and one thing only… to dance! He pulled out the Hirata GO! glasses and danced in the bleachers with Takechi joining in. They then both agreed to get into the ring and continue fighting in there. Takechi immediately put Hirata in a Crab Hold and Hirata instantly began tapping out. Matsui finally regained consciousness, had the bell ring to officially start the match and then had the bell ring again to end it with Takechi winning the match in exactly one second.

Hisaya Imabayashi got on the microphone but it wasn’t to complain about what just happened. Instead he praised everybody for giving the fans a great show even though the match was only one second long! Takechi then apologized to Sasadango for missing the Muscle& show and asked for another chance. Sasadango forgave him and the two shook hands. Hirata then suddenly pinned Ueno out of nowhere and ran off with the Iron Man Title! However a few minutes later everyone caught Hirata backstage and they all piled on top of him for a pinfall. Sasadango was the one directly on top of Hirata so he was declared the champion and he remains so at the time of writing.

A far more normal wrestling match happened before this. Sanshiro Takagi wanted to impress people by doing the Dragon Ring In but he jumped right into Naomi Yoshimura kicking him. Yuki Ishida thought he had Masami Inahata all figured out until Inahata countered the Ensho into a Spinning Body Slam. Yoshimura then shrugged off Ishida’s strikes to pin him with the Harai-goshi.

Still with me? Okay let’s move onto the announcements. The biggest news to come out of today’s show is that Shinya Aoki will be joining DDT on a full time basis! He will officially become a DDT wrestler on 3rd November, the same day he faces Zack Sabre Jr. at Sumo Hall. He promised to win that match as a DDT wrestler. Sanshiro Takagi said he’s worked with Aoki for a long time now and he is truly moved that Aoki is now joining DDT. Aoki described the decision as him further shifting away from MMO and towards pro wrestling. The idea to him felt right after Yuki Ueno was in his corner for his recent RIZIN fight. Takagi also thinks that it was necessary for Aoki to fully immerse himself in pro wrestling at least once in his life.

Some other important news is the appearance of three trainees who will soon make their pro wrestling debuts. The new rookies are (from left to right above) Haruki Satoh from Niigata, Maito Furuhashi from Aichi and Shuntaro Kobayashi from Chiba. All three of them will have their debut matches on 9th December. There is no mention yet if they will all debut in the same match or will be put into separate bouts by themselves.

And there’s one more new addition to the company. The voice actor Kouhei Sueyasu has joined DDT as a ring announcer. He is from the same talent agency and Tetsu Inada.

DDT “SUMIRE MELTY LOVE 2026” Results

October 12, 2026

DDT “SUMIRE MELTY LOVE 2026”, 12/10/2026
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: Ilusion defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Chinga Tu Madre! (7:41).
2. Tomoya, Noriyuki Yoshida & KANON defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul when KANON pinned Paul with the Lariat (9:52).
3. Danshoku Dieno, Junta Miyawaki & Yuki Ishida defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai when Ishida pinned Kasai after the Anal Electric Kiss (11:41).
4. HARASHIMA defeated Masami Inahata with a Cross Armbreaker (14:32).
5. Sapporo Studio Five Presents Special 3 Way Tag Match – Art Is A Battle Rules: MAO & Yukio Naya defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Akito and Kazuki Hirata & To-y when Naya pinned Hirata with an Artistic La Magistral (13:31).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Jun Akiyama & Shunma Katsumata defeated Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato when Ueno pinned Sato with the Jul.2 (19:08).

Yuki Ueno told Daichi Sato how impressed he is that he wrestles so intensely. He thinks there is no way Sato is only 18 years old! If The 37KAMIINA ever decides they want to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles they’ll be coming after paleyouth. At the end of the show Ueno kept on getting ambushed by Shunma Katsumata and To-y, both trying to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from him. Ueno kept fighting them off with Sleeper Holds until he finally escaped.

The semi-main event was sponsored by Sapporo Studio Five, a local photography studio. To-y was accompanied down to the ring by Saki Akai because he won a similarly sponsored match a year ago. He announced this year’s match would be held under “Art Is A Battle” rules. Pinfalls and submissions would only count if the wrestler did an artistic pose while doing them. Akai and Danshoku Dieno were the judges at ringside deciding what would count as being artistic. Sanshiro Takagi kept failing the task so he resorted to doing Beat Takeshi comedy gags. Akai got mad at him for doing that and refused to judge him, causing Takagi to grab her and bring her into the ring. Akai fought him off with a Big Boot and kicked a bunch of the other wrestlers, finishing off by giving Kazuki Hirata the Quetzalcoatl. Yukio Naya then pinned Hirata with La Magistral Cradle while Akai & MAO both posed next to him so the pinfall would count. Naya won a free photoshoot and he thinks the studio has never photographed somebody as big as him before.

Ilusion got into Kazuma Sumi’s head by making fun of his short height during their match. It got Sumi angry enough to throw him off his game. Then when a ref bump happened, Ilusion gave Sumi a Low Blow before pinning him with the Chinga Tu Madre! for the victory. Ilusion bragged about crushing the balls of NωA Jr. during the past two days before DAMNATION T.A defends the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles against them next week.

-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Yuki Ueno defeated Shunma Katsumata (c) with a Sleeper Hold (7:36 pm).
*Yuki Ueno becomes the 1,917th champion.

After today we’re done with the Beer Garden shows for the rest of the year. It ends on a bright point for Kaisei Takechi who got to compete in his first DDT style Falls Count Anywhere match teaming up with The 37KAMIINA. Before the match began Shunma Katsumata tried rolling up his own teammate Yuki Ueno to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Ueno kicked out so Katsumata ran away from the ring, briefly delaying the match from starting. Takechi fought with HARASHIMA around the venue before joining To-y so they could push each other on a cart along the aisleway. The opposing team put Sanshiro Takagi on a second cart and the two carts crashed into each other. Katsumata then rolled up Ueno again, this time succeeding to win the title. Junta Miyawaki built a castle of chairs nearby but Akito couldn’t find the Dramatic Dream bike anywhere. Suddenly Takechi was seen piloting it into the venue and cycling straight toward the chair castle. Everyone on the other team jumped out of the way as Takechi bumped his entire team into the chairs. He made up for the mistake by diving off the stage onto HARASHIMA & Akito. Ueno & Katsumata then fought with Takagi using chairs, coming out on top because of the numbers game. Katsumata climbed up to the balcony where he hit the Totonou Splash from three metres high onto Takagi through a table to win the match. Ueno then ruined Katsumata’s celebration by putting him in a Sleeper Hold to win back the Iron Man Title. He did the same to To-y when To-y tried to win the belt off him. Takechi saw two of his teammates were suddenly unconscious and decided not to join in. Katsumata tried to ambush Ueno one more time backstage after the show only to be sent to sleep yet again.

A special rule was added to the 8-Man Tag Match. Both MAO and Daisuke Sasaki were named captains of their teams. Whenever there was a kickout or rope break the team captain must drink a glass of alcohol. MAO and Sasaki got progressively more drunk as the match continued while everyone else involved were unaffected. Sasaki tried spitting his drink Poison Mist style but blinded MJ Paul with it by mistake. Yukio Naya took advantage to pin Paul with a Small Package.

Kazuma Sumi & Yuni are now confident that NωA Jr. can win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles after they beat two of the previous champions from paleyouth. Sumi & Yuni both proclaimed they will win the titles on 18th October.

Jun Akiyama acted as an honorary member of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC today by wearing some of their merch to the ring today. He also took part in their antics that involved baseball bats and some water balloons.

The 3 Way Match ended before Toru Owashi could make it to the ring. During his entrance, Antonio Honda grabbed the Hirata Go! glasses and threw them away, distracting Kazuki Hirata long enough to pin him with a roll up. Owashi was so upset he missed the match that Hisaya Imabayashi made the other wrestlers apologise to him and agree to a restart. As the rematch went on, Owashi and Honda gave each other a Lip Lock. That inspired Hirata to try doing the same with Yukinori Matsui, who closed his eyes in anticipation. Honda then rolled up Hirata for a pin but there was no count because Imabayashi’s eyes were still closed so he couldn’t see a pin. Owashi then made Honda use the Shining Gongitsune against himself and then used La Magistral Cradle to win the match.

The opening match showed us a world where Danshoku Dieno entered the wrestling industry as a no nonsense young lion wrestling in black trunks and no other presentation. This meant Yuki Ishida was the gritty veteran putting the rookie through his paces. Except at some point in the match something awakened in Ishida and he started to act like Dieno’s normal gimmick. Ishida ended up giving Dieno the Lip Lock and then started stripping out of his wrestling gear, causing the match to get called off.

*Shinjuku FACE becomes the 1,914th champion.

Pro wrestlers from across the Japanese scene all gathered together for the final ever show to take place inside Shinjuku FACE. For 21 years the venue in the heart of Kabukicho hosted hundreds if not thousands of pro wrestling and martial arts events but the time has come for it to close down. Not only has their rent controlled lease come to an end but the entire Humax Pavilion complex that FACE is a part of is said to be getting a heavy reconstruction/replacement job in the future. So today was Shinjuku FACE’s last day in business.

The main event was inspired by the headline match of FACE’s first ever event held 21 years ago. Back then it was a women’s MMA show but the main event was a pro wrestling match between Mayumi Ozaki & Dynamite Kansai against Aja Kong & Manami Toyota. Both Ozaki and Kong are still active so they got to relive the match, this time with Chihiro Hashimoto and Sareee also involved. OZ Academy always treated FACE as its home so it was only natural for Ozaki’s hechman Policeman to get involved and deal some heavy cheating in the match. Ozaki & Sareee kind of needed the extra help because even the three of them working together couldn’y overpower the combined strength of Kong & Hashimoto. Eventually the match broke down into a brawl that flowed outside the ring. The action was even starting to damage the venue itself and both teams wound up getting counted out to end the match in a draw.

Ozaki wasn’t happy with that result and demanded the match to restart. Not only that but she also called for every wrestler in the building to come out and wreck the place while the match continued! The entire venue turned into chaos with wrestlers hitting things with chairs, MAO driving the Dramatic Dream bike around ringside, The Brahman Brothers throwing water around everywhere, Syuri giving Sakura Hirota the Old School rope walk across the counter and Yuma Aoyagi posing for pictures with fans. Back in the ring Ozaki & Policeman were trapped in the corner so Kong led a Sayonara Train of wrestlers to charge into them one by one. The final person to join the train was the venue’s manager Yuka Ogawa. She got into the ring carrying a framed photo of the late Taichi Sakaiya, a politician who was involved with the creation of FACE. When Ozaki finally fell down to the canvas after taking the attacks, Kong & Hashimoto told Ogawa to pin her so she could score the final pinfall in Shinjuku FACE.

After the match the fans started a “One More Time” chant but Kong said there’s nothing they can do about it. She would love to keep wrestling here 100 more times but the entire building will disappear soon. She then ordered Minoru Suzuki to gather up his money and buy the plot of land so they can build a new FACE. Hashimoto said this is the place where she grew stronger. She never got to hit anyone with a chair or umbrella before today but she really enjoyed hitting Ozaki with them. Sareee said she’s never had a match as chaotic as this. Shinjuku FACE was where she first met her ultimate rival Hashimoto and she is certain the two will keep leading women’s pro wrestling. Ozaki and Kong interrupted her so they could talk about their own decades long rivalry that will keep on going until one of them goes away. They’ll even be around if a new Shinjuku FACE gets built so they can be on the first show there!

More people spoke about their history with FACE including Suzuki, Sanshiro Takagi, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan and Sakura Hirota. Suzuki revealed that Ogawa used to work in Pancrase. When she left the company he never knew where she went until he had a match here and saw that Ogawa was in charge of the place. Takagi loves FACE and knows it will live on in everyone’s hearts. Kuroshio admitted his promotion Up Town had the most shows that ran over time and paid those penalty fees the most. He also snuck in extra chairs behind the staff’s back because more people would show up than the ticket sales suggested. Hirota started crying because there is a hallway backstage that is the perfect size for the wrestlers to just hang out and chat with each other. Whenever she was here she knew her friends would be waiting for her there.

Ogawa was then invited to give her own speech. She’s come to realize how precious and important this venue is and is thankful to Taichi Sakaiya for his help in establishing Shinjuku FACE in the first place. She feels it is up to her to write the next chapter and she intends to create a new venue to carry on the FACE legacy.

There were some eventful Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title changes that happened throughout the show. The first happened when Ogawa was supposed to present a prize to the winner of the Battle Royal. Unfortunately the winner was one of The Brahman Brothers and they both wanted to attack Ogawa instead. Sanshiro Takagi got into the ring but that just meant The Brahmans threw their buckets of water at both of them. The splash was enough to knock Takagi out in the middle of the ring and the fans all encouraged Ogawa to pin him and win the Iron Man Title. Then at the end of the show Ogawa announced that the burden of holding this champion is too much to bear for her. She decided she would hand the belt over to Shinjuku FACE itself! Yukinori Matsui accepted her decision and declared the title change official. At the stroke of midnight, Shinjuku FACE was now officially closed for good so DDT decided the Iron Man Title has now become vacant.

SUPER JAPAN “SHINJUKU FACE COUNTDOWN SERIES ~GOODBYE SHINJUKU FACE~” Results

September 28, 2026

SUPER JAPAN “SHINJUKU FACE COUNTDOWN SERIES ~GOODBYE SHINJUKU FACE~”, 28/09/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. GAJI Debut Match: Shota & Ryoma Tsukamoto defeated GAJI & Makoto Oishi when Shota pinned Oishi with the Gannosuke Clutch (8:54).
2. Special Tag Match: Marika Kobashi & Azusa Inaba defeated Mio Shirai & Yuuki Minami when Kobashi pinned Shirai after a Back Drop from Inaba (5:29).
3. Special Tag Match: Kumadori & Saira defeated Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Yuki Kamifuku when Kumadori pinned Kuroshio with the Corkscrew Senton (12:10).
4. Special Single Match: CIMA defeated Ken Ohka with the Meteora (12:31).
5. 4 Way Tag Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa, Thanomsak Toba & Gym Trainer Kotoka and Fuminori Abe & Mac Matsushita when Shu pinned Takagi after the Gotai Fumanzoku (14:08).
6. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Yuji Nagata (c) defeated Satoshi Kojima with the Back Drop Hold (13:28).
*V? for Yuji Nagata.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Sanshiro Takagi defeated Yuji Nagata (c) with a Cradle (9:10 pm).
*Sanshiro Takagi becomes the 1,912th champion.

The last time Yuji Nagata and Satoshi Kojima had a singles match against each other was eleven years ago at the 2015 G1 Climax. Today stood across the ring from each other as part of the Shinjuku FACE Countdown Series. An added bonus was Nagata being the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion going into the match (he very briefly lost it and won it back from Manabu Nakanishi during an interview for his Youtube channel during the week) which meant the main event now had a title on the line. This was treated as a much bigger deal than previous Iron Man Title bouts because Shuichi Nishinaga from NOAH was brought in to be the referee, Fumihito Kihara formerly of All Japan was the special ring announcer and Masayuki Uchida was part of the pre-match ceremony.

Nagata defeated Kojima to successfully defend the title by using a Kneel Kick, an Enzuigiri and then the Back Drop Hold for the three count. He thanked the fans afterward because their cheers gave him strength. He also told Kojima to continue doing his best because the two of them are the last remaining wrestlers from New Japan’s “Third Generation” that are still active. Sanshiro Takagi then gathered everyone together to close out the show. Since this is Super Japan’s final show in Shinjuku FACE, Takagi hopes the promotion will find a new venue to continue running shows with Nagata as the company ace. Suddenly when Nagata was saying his catchphrase, his young lion at ringside Tatsuya Matsumoto tried to roll him up to win the title! Nagata kicked out but was so distracted by what happened that Takagi then rolled him up and got the pinfall to become the new champion.

Years of traumatic history hung over Ken Ohka’s match with CIMA. Ohka, believe it or not, was originally a Toryumon student way back in the day but flunked out of there and never debuted for the promotion. His failure put him in a dark place but he continued to seek out a pro wrestling career because he loves it so much. He knows CIMA has gone through some rough times too so he encouraged him to keep wrestling even if his limbs ever stop working. CIMA admitted he’s been scammed four times in his life and the most recent was a wire transfer scam that many other people fall for. He joked that he holds the record for the highest financial loss in history.

Fuminori Abe got a little too giddy over the occasion and told everyone during his match he would spray paint the word “Anal” onto the wall. He lived up to his word. He was apologetic about it at the end of the show and promised to clean off the graffiti. I don’t know if he properly cleaned it away but he at least sprayed more paint on the wall to cover up the word.

If Kuroshio TOKYO Japan was going to team up with Yuki Kamifuku, he was going to do it on Kamiyu’s terms. She pulled off Kuroshio’s jacket before the match and made him wear her own entrance jacket. He asked everyone if he looked cute but Saira in particular said no. Kuroshio later grabbed Saira into a Full Nelson and told Kamifuku to call her ugly but she refused. Saira damaged Kuroshio’s ego further when he had a dance off with Kumadori and Saira said Kumadori looked cooler. Kuroshio hit her with an Enzuigiri and also knocked down Kamifuku so the match would just be between him and Kumadori. Kamifuku got revenge by giving her tag partner the Diving Famouser. The other team followed up with Saira hitting the Sky Twister Press followed by Kumadori doing the Corkscrew Senton for the victory.

6b. HARASHIMA eliminated Ilusion with the Somato (21:21).

Earlier today Tokyo Joshi Pro said its goodbyes to Shinjuku FACE. When the evening came around it was DDT’s turn to do the same. Their idea of a grand sendoff was to do a massive 4 Way Elimination match between four teams of four wrestlers each. Strange Love Connection, DAMNATION T.A and FANTÔMES DRAMATIC made up three of the teams while the fourth was an alliance of The 37KAMIINA & NωA Jr. Originally, Danshoku Dieno was meant to be on that team but he had to pull out on short notice due to illness. The match itself was held under Falls Count Anywhere rules and some really wanted to take that rule to the extreme. MAO and Chris Brookes tried to bring the fight out of the building out to the streets of Shinjuku but nearby security prevented them from making it far past the building’s entrance. When the dust settled, SLC were the last team standing with MAO scoring the final elimination.

A week ago Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki agreed to give paleyouth a shot at the KO-D Tag Team Titles as long as Yuya Koroku lost some weight. Aoki continued to give Koroku a hard time over his alleged heaviness in the match by targeting his midsection. However Koroku was there to make the save for Takeshi Masada when the match was on the line. Aoki took him out with a Topé Suicida but Miyawaki wasn’t able to put Masada away by himself. Instead Masada made a comeback and pinned Miyawaki with his finisher to win the titles! After the match Soma Takao appeared in the ring alongside his ROMANCE DAWN tag partner Shota. Today was Takao’s last match under contract to DDT and he is now a freelancer. That doesn’t mean DDT won’t stop booking him though. Since both members of ROMANCE DAWN are now freelancers they are hungrier than ever to challenge for the KO-D Tag Titles! Masada wasn’t sure about accepting the challenge but Koroku wants to avenge last week’s defeat to Takao so the title match will happen on 18th October.

A variation of the Lumberjack Match was used for the DDT Extreme Title bout. Shunma Katsumata and Ryota Nakatsu brought along their own lumberjacks who were allowed to attack the opponent should he be knocked out of the ring. Katsumata had Kazuma Sumi, Yuni and Yuki Ishida while Nakatsu brought along Takumi Tsukamoto and Masato Kamino from BASARA. The lumberjacks carried both wrestlers on their shoulders for a “cavalry” fight at ringside at one point. Back in the ring, Nakatsu grabbed hold of Katsumata for Kamino to hit with a Lariat along the ring apron but Katsumata ducked and Nakatsu got him instead. Katsumata then capitalized with a German Suplex to pin Nakatsu and remain the champion. Katsumata then decided to nominate Yuki Ueno as his next challenger for Sumo Hall on 3rd November! They just fought for Katsumata’s 10th Anniversary match and he does not want to wait until the 20th Anniversary to wrestle him again. Ueno refused at first but he was just joking. He accepted the challenge and said it is not just so he can wrestle his friend again. He also wants to show everyone he can do entertaining Extreme Title matches too.

Today was also Gota Ihashi’s final appearance under a DDT contract before going freelance. Unlike Takao, he did not find a way to still get a title shot or other further DDT bookings in the short term. But he did get to say goodbye along with Takao and thank everyone for supporting him over the last 17 years.

Due to Dieno’s absence, Sumi took his spot in the main event and Tomomitsu Matsunaga filled in for Sumi in the dark match. Also at the end of the show To-y put on a pair of Danshoku tights so Dieno could have some kind of presence for DDT’s final Shinjuku FACE show.

Everyone gathered together at the end of the show to say farewell to Shinjuku FACE. Sanshiro Takagi said DDT has been indebted to the venue for 21 years and they were never reprimanded for anything they did here. He’s certain nothing they did today would get them in trouble too. No other venue treated DDT so generously. With that being said, Daisuke Sasaki broke off a piece of one of the walls with the intention of auctioning it off for 200 million yen. If he makes that much he’ll use the money to build a new Shinjuku FACE by himself.

8. Hikari House Kogyo Co. Ltd. Presents STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y defeated MAO, KANON & Viento Levante (w/ KIMIHIRO & YUZUKI) when To-y pinned Levante with a Frankensteiner (12:40).
9. Seiwa Shoji Co. Ltd. Presents HARASHIMA 25th Anniversary Debut Match ~ Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Chris Brookes defeated Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuko Miyamoto when HARASHIMA pinned Miyamoto with the Swan Dive Somato (20:36).

The spotlight was all over HARASHIMA for today’s DDT show in his hometown. Before any of the matches began, the mayor of Ome City appointed HARASHIMA as a PR Ambassador for a community initiative called OmeBlue. HARASHIMA then returned for the main event to wrestle in a special match celebrating the 25th Anniversary of his debut. He teamed up with Chris Brookes to fight two wrestlers he has past connections with, Daisuke Sekimoto & Yuko Miyamoto. The outsider team didn’t take it easily on HARASHIMA just because it was his big day. They both targeted HARASHIMA’s legs throughout the match. Sekimoto also grabbed Miyamoto while Miyamoto held onto HARASHIMA so a Double German Suplex spot could be pulled off. Miyamoto also used a series of signature moves including the Gannosuke Clutch, Fire Thunder and Moonsault Press but couldn’t pull out the win. Instead HARASHIMA used a Reverse Frankensteiner on Miyamoto, hit the Somato and finally pinned him with the Swan Dive Somato.

HARASHIMA thanked Brookes for his help and the fans for their support as the reasons why he could win. He is happy that DDT was able to run in his hometown for the second year in a row and hopes everyone comes back to do a third event next year. HARASHIMA believes pro wrestling generates a certain kind of energy among people and wants people to spend the final day of Silver Week thinking they were glad they went to see wrestling.

There was a preview of Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki versus paleyouth. The paleyouth team was Takeshi Masada & Daichi Sato which is not the combination that will challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles soon. However Aoki scored the pinfall on Masada who will be on the challenging team. Even though Yuya Koroku only stood at ringside for the match and didn’t do anything, Aoki complained about him afterwards for having a pathetic physique. Masada called today’s loss a minor setback and promised to eat a lot of spinach on 27th September to have arms like Popeye for the title match.

Sanshiro Takagi held Minoru Suzuki in place so the Ome City mayor could chop him during their match. Also Kazuma Sumi is convinced that Aja Kong attacked him so much because she thought he was Yurika Oka.

6. DDT Universal Title: Ryusuke Taguchi (c) defeated Antonio Honda with the Modified Ankle Hold (12:49).
*V2 for Ryusuke Taguchi.
7. KO-D Openweight Title: MAO (c) defeated Fuminori Abe with a Bridging Gedo Clutch (19:14).
*V3 for MAO.
-. Emergency Match: Ilusion defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Chinga Tu Madre! (1:12).
*Ilusion cashes in his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet. Ilusion wins Sanshiro Takagi’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.
-. KO-D Openweight Title: MAO (c) defeated Ilusion with the Cannonball 450° (4:35).
*V4 for MAO. Ilusion cashes in his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.

The KO-D Openweight Title situation is now changing to the point that wherever MAO goes, chaos ends up following him. For the second time in his reign he has now defended the title twice in back to back matches thanks to shenanigans involving the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets. Today’s main event started off with MAO putting the belt on the line against Fuminori Abe. The match called back to a bout they had two years ago when a kick to the gut led to Abe throwing up in his mouth a little. There was a risk of it happening again today but Abe was able to prevent himself from repeating his embarrassing moment. The playful actions between the two turned more competitive as the match went on, turning to a tit-for-tat game of one-upmanship. MAO was one step ahead of Abe for the finish, countering the Manjigatame and setting up a series of back and forth cradle pins that ended with MAO using a bridging version of the Gedo Clutch to win the match.

Then things started to get crazy. Sanshiro Takagi walked out after the match promising to avenge Abe’s defeat by cashing in his Right To Challenge Gauntlet on MAO just like he did at Sumo Hall last month. However, Ilsuion then showed up carrying the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere, Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet he won earlier in the night (and also created in the very first place) and he declared he was cashing it in on Takagi’s Gauntlet! A match between Takagi and Ilusion began right away and the two tried to out-Stunner each other. Ilusion caught Takagi with an Enzuigiri afterward and grabbed him into the Chinga Tu Madre! cradle for a three count out of nowhere. So now Ilusion holds the last remaining Gauntlet for a KO-D Title shot. Ilusion told MAO he is too tired from the match he just had to cash in and he still has the rest of the month to use his prize so he’s going to make MAO wait for their title match…

Just kidding! Ilusion suddenly gave MAO a Low Blow and decided he was cashing in his title show right away! A bonus KO-D Title match then began with Ilusion trying to roll up MAO for a quick win while other wrestlers from DAMNATION T.A removed one of the turnbuckle pads. MAO hit the exposed buckle but was able to dodge the Swanton Bomb. Ilusion used another Low Blow and got to do the Chinga Tu Madre! again but MAO kicked out of it. DAMNATION T.A interfered further until Yukio Naya, KANON & KIMIHIRO showed up to fight them off, leaving MAO to knock down Ilusion with a Palm Strike and then pin him with the Cannonball 450°. When that was over MAO talked about the chaos that’s happening in DDT right now before turning his thoughts over to Abe. MAO wants to keep fighting Abe as his ideal rival even when they both grow old because they get to discover how deep the world of pro wrestling can go.

The KO-D Title picture is now completely cleared out after today. All of the Right To Challenge Gauntlets have been used up and a No. 1 Contender has not emerged while the dust is still settling. Hisaya Imabayashi asked MAO to nominated his next challenger for the Sumo Hall show on 3rd November. MAO said he had already faced Yuki Ueno in the main event of Ryogoku but there is one other person he wants to share that experience with. It’s Chris Brookes! He is the person MAO keeps coming back to because Brookes chose DDT and stayed with them at a time when all of his friends in the UK chose other companies. MAO wants himself, Ueno and Brookes to be part of this moment where it feels like DDT has finally overcome its tough times. He doesn’t mind if the match gets so crazy it ends in a Double Count Out as long as the match is with Brookes. They have been setting ARENA Shimokitazawa on fire with Baka Gaijin + Friends so now they will do the same to Sumo Hall!

Ryusuke Taguchi was putting more than just the DDT Universal Title on the line when he fought Antonio Honda. He was also fighting for his son’s admiration! Ryusuke’s son Shisho Taguchi is currently a musician and became acquainted with Honda after seeing his band Daisetz live. Honda taunted Ryusuke by making it his goal to win the Universal Title and use it to pose for a picture with Shisho, something that Shisho has never done with his father throughout his life! Shisho was in attendance for the match and Honda couldn’t resist to get him involved. He held Ryusuke for Shisho to chop him but Shisho couldn’t bring himself to attack his own dad. However when Ryusuke reversed the position with Honda, Shisho also couldn’t bring himself to hit his friend! Ryusuke brought the match back to the ring where he worked over Honda’s knee. Honda used the powers of Gongitsune and Hiroyoshi Tenzan to fight back but Taguchi would keep the match in his control and submit Honda with the Ankle Lock. The match got a happy ending backstage when Ryusuke, Shisho and Honda all took a picture together with the Universal Title belt.

The Universal Title is also going to take a trip over to New Japan soon. Taguchi asked Akito after the match if he could defend the belt over there because he is feuding with Dick Togo on the current tour. Taguchi pointed out that he has already defended the title against Daisuke Sasaki and Antonio Honda so it would be a great story if his next defence would be against their mentor Togo. Akito said plans were already being made for a title defence to happen at DDT’s next Korakuen Hall show on 18th October but he will allow Taguchi to defend it in NJPW before then. After the show had ended it was confirmed that Taguchi will put the title on the line against Togo at New Japan’s 17th October show in Hokkaido. Then the winner will come back to DDT on the 18th for a title match against Akito! Taguchi promised to give it his all and return to DDT with the Universal Title, but he also admitted he may only give Togo 50% effort so he apologizes to everyone in DDT in advance should he end up losing the belt to Togo. He also promised to continue pitching Kazuma Sumi to be his tag partner for the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League.

You can see why Ilusion had a plan in place for today. He’s been collecting so many championship belts lately that he could have ended the day with the cherry on top that is the KO-D Title. Instead he just has to live with winning the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles with DAMNATION T.A again. He continues his masked man rivalry with Viento Levante and had MJ Paul to pull out the referee just when it looked like the match would be lost to Strange Love Connection. More cheating happened with Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani attacking KANON & Yukio Naya with chairs and bamboo sticks. Levante finally got his hands on Ilusion and tried to choke him out with a Sleeper Hold but Ilusion escaped and trapped Levante in the Chinga Tu Madre! to pin him and win the titles. Ilusion added insult to injury after the match by telling Levante it doesn’t matter if he changes his name and goes to Mexico, he is still the same small fry he always was.

DAMNATION T.A then announced they will not be taking on all comers for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles. Instead they will decide who they will defend the belts against. However, NωA Jr. entered the ring to make their argument towards getting a title shot. Sumi said now is a crucial moment for the trio because they are all back together now. Shunma Katasumata has returned from injury while Yuni had finished his college entrance exams. The three of them now want to show everyone a view that only they can create as the champions. Ilusion said he might accept the challenge if NωA Jr. approach him backstage and beg on their knees for the match. Hisaya Imabayashi ignored him and confirmed NωA Jr. will get a title shot on 27th September. Backstage Sasaki predicted DDT are going to strip DAMNATION T.A of the titles again like last time so they may as well vacate them before it happens. Ilusion wants the group’s top priority to be them crushing the wannabe idols first and then they can vacate the belts.

Has Mr. IWGP now become Mr. Iron Man? Yuji Nagata was the special guest for a match celebrating the 34th Anniversary of Jun Akiyama’s debut. Nagata and Akiyama bought made their debuts in 1992 and have been generational counterparts divided by separate companies ever since. Akiyama got to start off the match with HARASHIMA and that meant Nagata was paired off with Danshoku Dieno. That meant Nagata would inevitably get a face full of Dieno’s Hell Gate but that just awakened the demon inside him! Nagata threw Dieno over with an Exploder Suplex and then pulled HARASHIMA into the Nagata Lock II. Akiyama meanwhile applied the Front Neck Lock onto Dieno, who rather than tap out decided to pull down his tights instead. Yukinori Matsui called off the match to avoid the incident from getting worse and declared that Akiyama had won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Dieno. But while Akiyama celebrated with his title, Nagata rolled him up for a pinfall and won the belt off him! Akiyama later tried to win it back off him backstage but couldn’t pull it off. Now the question is does this count as a New Japan wrestler taking away the Iron Man Title or is it a Super Japan wrestler that did it?

With MMA now seemingly behind him, Shinya Aoki can put more of his focus on being a menace in the pro wrestling ring. He quickly showed off his skill in the 3 Way Tag by grabbing both Brookes and Yuki Ishida in a Double Manjigatame style hold at the same time. Junta Miyawaki carried over the momentum by cutting off a double team from Hinata Kasai and Masami Inahata. Aoki also ruined the rubber band spot and threw the thing away. He paid for that when Ishida got to use the spot against him. Miyawaki found himself alone against the two other teams but the action broke down to the point where Aoki could take out a bunch of wrestlers with a Topé Suicida, leaving Miyawaki alone with Kasai in the ring. Kasai didn’t have what it takes to take Miyawaki down and the match ended with him getting pinned with the Sunshine Suplex.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions were then confronted by paleyouth after the match. Both Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku claimed they have been starving ever since they lost the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles. Aoki disagreed and pointed to Koroku, calling him fat. Masada said Aoki is wrong because Aoki is super skinny compared to everyone else. paleyouth then asked for a title shot and got what they wanted. Miyawaki was complimentary to Masada because they are both the same age but Aoki continued to call Koroku fat and advised him to slim down before the match takes place on 27th September. Koroku promised to get himself shredded but he doesn’t appreciate having to do it on a week’s notice.

Soma Takao’s farewell tour of DDT continues with a singles match against Kazuki Hirata happening today. He was on pace to beat Hirata in quick fashion but when he held him upside down for the Gin And Tonic, Hirata pleaded to be let go because he had something important to say. When Hirata was freed he took out a heartfelt letter he wrote about the memories he made with Takao. He is sad that their time together is ending so before Takao goes, Hirata wanted to dance with him one more time. Takao wasn’t really interested in doing that but Hirata forcefully put the Hirata GO! glasses onto his face and he couldn’t help but get into the mood when the music played. They danced together and then continued to wrestle, ending in short order when Takao pinned Hirata with the Gin And Tonic.

Before Akiyama’s 34th Anniversary match happened, there was Daichi Sato’s 5th Anniversary to celebrate first. The teenage heavyweight was on the winning side with the rest of paleyouth as they defeated The 37KAMIINA in the opener. To-y got a mouthful of Masada’s fingers once again and was double teamed by different combinations of paleyouth until Masada & Koroku finished him off.

Two of the NωA Jr. had a tune up tag match on the pre-show. Kazuma Sumi and Yuni were on opposite sides of a tag match with Naomi Yoshimura and Tomomitsu Matsunaga also involved. Matsunaga was put off by Sumi’s speed and threatened to use a fan in the front row as a human shield to stop Sumi from doing a dive out of the ring. Yuni did not use such outside the box thinking tactics and was pinned by Sumi who used the School Boy as a counter for Yuni’s own cradle attempts.

10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Suzume

The Kanda Myojin temple has been a busy location regarding Tokyo Joshi Pro this week. TJPW held a press conference there yesterday to promote three of the title matches taking place at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” next month. Suzume said TJPW has taught her that she can pursue as many dreams as she wants no matter her age which is why she is greedy enough to challenge for the Princess Of Princess Title while also holding the International Princess Title. She thinks back to when she and Yuki Arai were younger. While Arai was performing on stage as a shining idol, Suzume was a shut in doing nothing but giving up on her dreams. Now the two will fight each other over the same dream and Suzume believes they will have the best match at EBARA WAVE Arena on 3rd October. Arai is so impressed by how much Suzume has grown not just in strength but also radiating with confidence. Arai admits she cannot match that drive but she will be entering the match as if she is the one challenging Suzume, not the other way around. Her goal is not to stop Suzume’s momentum or halt her progress. Instead she wants to create a new whirlwind that will propel herself even higher than Suzume!

One half of Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed is having a crisis of confidence heading into the Princess Tag Team Titles match. The prelim matches have made Haru Kazashiro consider that she is not on Daydream’s level and her own weaknesses have been exposed too much. Yuki Aino had to interrupt and motivate her, reminding Kazashiro of the Kamen Rider Hibiki episode where it is said that if you do not train your heart to be strong then you will lose. Kazashiro also remembers a quote from Kamen Rider Ghost about how you haven’t lost yet when you don’t think you lost. Prism Greed got even more motivated when they discovered Daydream when combined together look just like Evolt, the bad guy from Kamen Rider Build. Rika Tatsumi thinks it is cute that Prism Greed act like a newly dating couple. She wouldn’t mind if Miu Watanabe acted more affectionate towards her. But enough about that, the prelim matches have been a breeze for Daydream and beating small fry teams is part of what they need to do to break the record for most Princess Tag Title defences. Watanabe believes it is destiny for the strongest tag team to achieve that.

The EVE International Title match is kind of turning into a war of words about fashion. By representing EVE as one of their champions, Miyu Yamashita wants to defend the title and become a sophisticated woman worthy of Great Britain. She pointed out that the super colorful outfit Arisu Endo was wearing would stand out too much in the UK. She doesn’t deny that Endo has great fashion taste but she wouldn’t blend into the streets of London like Yamashita does with her current chic look. Yamashita’s mind is so set on representing the UK that even her watch is on English time instead of Japan. Endo warned Yamashita not to get jetlag over this because she wants to beat her at her best otherwise she wouldn’t be satisfied with taking the title from a sleepy champion. She also thinks Yamashita’s chic outfit is so plain and bland. There are so many colours in the world that Yamashita should at least use some of them. Yamashita fired back that Endo is so flashy that she’s exhausting to look at. By British standards her outfit would be 43 points out of 100.

In other news Kumadori’s dance group O-MENZ will be part of the show, performing during the entrance of Kumadori’s team with Aja Kong & Sakura Hattori.
