1. DDT Extreme Title – Hell Gate Dai Bukai For 5 People: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Amateur Wrestling “Nariagari” Five Elite People

Away from DDT, Danshoku Dieno started his own little project for training amateurs into becoming pro wrestlers. DDT would mention it here and there to help Dieno get some applicants but otherwise not much was ever made of it. All of a sudden, Dieno tells Sanshiro Takagi he has five elite students ready to hunt Takagi for the DDT Extreme Title! From the start of his title reign, Takagi has said he will defend the belt against anyone including amateurs. He will travel to a place described as a Hell Gate to fight these elite amateurs.

1a. Center Flag Match: Rambo Kawamura defeated Sanshiro Takagi by Flag Capture (3:07).
1b. Don’t Scream Torture Death Match: Sanshiro Takagi defeated Rambo Kawamura when Kawamura succumbed to torture (8:13).
1c. Falls Count Anywhere Survival Death Match: Sanshiro Takagi defeated Rambo Kawamura with the Spicolli Driver (6:08).
*V2 for Sanshiro Takagi.

When last we saw the DDT Extreme Title it was being held hostage by Rambo Kawamura. He was previously Rocky Kawamura but he transformed into Rambo when an exploding bat death match on one of Atsushi Onita’s shows left him shell shocked. Sanshiro Takagi met with Kawamura in the battlefield and his mission was to regain possession of his championship belt. Daisuke Kiso explained to them the rules of the Savage Death Match. It is Best 2 out of 3 Falls with a different stipulation for every fall. Firearms are permitted and both men were encouraged to keep their goggles on the entire time for their safety. Kawamura said the battlefield means he is the law here!

The first fall was Capture The Flag. Both Takagi and Kawamura walked over to their starting points each armed with an air gun. Kawamura quickly went Rambo which caused Takagi to go hide. The spot he took cover in was where Takagi found Keigo Nakamura. He ordered Nakamura to run across the field to act as a decoy. Nakamura refused until he was told he can either run and get shot by Kawamura or stay and get shot by Takagi! Nakamura ran over but quickly got gunned down. Takagi tried to run during the distraction but Kawamura shot him too. Kawamura then reached the flag to win the first fall. Takagi thanked a motionless Nakamura for helping him.

Before the second fall began, Kawamura sensed something dangerous was about to happen. Kiso announced a Don’t Scream Torture Death Match! Takagi and Kawamura would have to take turns being tortured with cane strikes. First one to yell in pain is the loser. Kawamura said this match is his specialty because he is a prisoner of war. A revived Nakamura was joined by Hideki Okatani to cane the POWs. The rookies were hesitant to do it but they were encouraged to put their full power into it. Neither Takagi or Kawamura would fall to the torture. Eventually they agreed to swap places with the rookies, Nakamura for Takagi and Okatani for Kawamura. Also the cane shots went from one hit to five per turn. Impressively, Nakamura and Okatani took the shots and neither made a sound! A winner needed to be determined so the cane shots were increased to 10 at a time. Nakamura beat Okatani in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors so Okatani had to go first. Takagi hit Okatani 9 times and Kawamura couldn’t take it anymore. He stepped in front of Okatani to protect him and took the final cane shot, screaming in pain. Takagi won the second fall.

The third and deciding fall was a Falls Count Anywhere match with the entire battlefield in play. The firearms were now changed to rapid fire mode to make it the most dangerous rule yet. Takagi and Kawamura ran all over the battlefield hunting for each other. Takagi shot Kawamura, forcing the challenger to pull the bullet out of his wound with a knife. Okatani then jumped in front of him to be a human shield until Takagi ran out of bullets. Takagi wanted to finish the job but Nakamura turned on him! He held onto Takagi while Kawamura armed himself with a bow and arrow. Kawamura fired but Takagi ducked and Nakamura got hit with a headshot! Takagi picked up his gun and riddle Kawamura with bullets. He then gave him the Spicolli Driver and pinned him for the three count.

Takagi fired his remaining ammo into the air to celebrate his victory. He told Kawamura that the war is over but Kawamura refused to listen. He was abandoned by his country and also by DDT. He lives an empty life and the only thing keeping him going is living for tomorrow. Takagi threw him a gun and told him they can fight again and again on any battlefield. Kawamura said he will live and he walked off firing his gun. Takagi reclaimed his Extreme Title and again declared that anyone can challenge him. Suddenly Danshoku Dieno appeared in a suit laughing. He told Takagi he wants to see him lose against amateurs, not professionals. For the last year Dieno has been recruiting amateurs to train them into becoming pro wrestlers. He now has five elite amateurs all ready to fight Takagi. The champion accepted Dieno’s challenge and will take all five of them on!

BAKUHA KOSHIEN “BAKUHA KOSHIEN 2020 ~30TH ANNIVERSARY OF CURRENT BLAST~”, 29/11/2020
Kanagawa Tsurumi Fruit & Vegetable Market
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Ricky Fuji defeated Gota Ihashi with the 9999 (6:11).
2. Maku Donaruto defeated Mizuki Watase when Donaruto pressed his crotch onto Watase’s face (11:39).
3. Yuna Manase defeated Ayumi Hayashi with the Suzuki Dynamic (6:48).
4. Rikidozan III Vs Taiho III: Yukio Naya & Hoshitango Imachi defeated Chikara & Yumehito Imanari when Naya pinned Imanari with the Back Drop (12:25).
5. First In History! Air Time Bomb & Current Blast Bat x 3 Death Match: Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Hidetaka Monma defeated Atsushi Onita, Mecha Pandita & Rambo Kawamura when Sugiura pinned Pandita with the Current Blast Bat Swing (12:28).

For the main event, three Current Blast bats were placed in the ring while an Air Time Bomb hung over everyone from above, rigged to explode after ten minutes. Sugiura-gun came out armed with weapons. Takashi Sugiura had a chair, NOSAWA Rongai had a guitar and Hidetaka Monma had a barbed wire bat. The two teams brawled around the venue for the first five minutes. Atsushi Onita put NOSAWA through a table with a Piledriver. Monma immediately grabbed Onita so Sugiura could hit him with a Barbed Wire Bat. Rambo Kawamura got into the ring and mimicked firing a machine gun until he ran out of bullets. Time ran out and the Air Time Bomb exploded over everyone. Onita covered Daisuke Kiso to protect him while sparks poured down from the ceiling. When things calmed down, Sugiura grabbed a Current Blast Bat and hit Onita with an explosion. Monma picked Onita up so Sugiura could hit him with a second Blast Bat but Onita got out of the way and Monma took the blow instead. Onita yelled at Sugiura to keep fighting so Sugiura attacked him. He then grabbed the last Blast Bat and hit Mecha Pandita with it. He pinned the robot afterwards to win the match.

Sugiura & NOSAWA posed for their victory over Onita but didn’t stick around for the ending. Onita put on his leather jacket and thanked the fans for coming despite the cold weather and also the epidemic. Onita joked that he doesn’t notice the cold because he lives in the countryside where it is zero degrees everyday. He invited Sanshiro Takagi and guest The Great Kojika in to join in the closing speech. Onita later confronted Takagi accusing him of avoiding the Bakuha Koshien shows so he wouldn’t have to do any explosion death matches. They then argued over what is stronger, pandas or dogs. Takagi said dogs because the dog beat the panda today. Onita admitted that Mecha Pandita probably needs to be sent back to the factory in Laos for maintenance.

For the first time since 2017, the Power Of Dreams were together again. Chikara teamed up with Yumehito Imanari to take on the sumo pairing of Yukio Naya & Hoshitango. The match focused on Chikara and Naya, two 3rd generation wrestlers fighting each other. Chikara missed a Diving Saber Chop and hit his partner by mistake, causing Naya to pin Imanari with the Back Drop. Chikara challenged Naya to a singles match afterwards but Naya told him to go home.

Ayumi Hayashi encouraged Yuna Manase to join in her wasshoi chants just so she would drop her guard. Manase had trouble pinning her opponent down until she hit a Lariat and won with the Suzuki Dynamic. She praised Hayashi for a good match afterwards.

Mizuki Watase was thrown off by Maku Donaruto’s behavior after Donaruto tried to pull his tights off. Watase got so annoyed that he pulled down his tights himself and threw them at Donaruto. Both wrestlers were reduced to fighting in their underwear with Donaruto encouraging Watase to give him more. He countered Watase’s Back Drop into a Triangle Choke, purposely pressing Watase’s face into his crotch. Watase gave up from this.

Yesterday was Gota Ihashi’s birthday. Sadly he couldn’t celebrate today because he lost to Ricky Fuji. Ihashi missed the Moonsault and Fuji capitalised with the 9999.

Sanshiro Takagi’s first DDT Extreme Title defence ended in disaster when Rambo Kawamura ambushed the champion and took the belt hostage! Guerilla tactics will be needed for Takagi to get it back because Kawamura has fled to the Savage Field, an outdoor area somewhere in Tokyo used for airsoft activities, shooting ranges and other gun hobbies.

He is hyping up the show by saying it will be something he has never seen anyone else do and it won’t broadcast anywhere outside of his Pia Live Stream.

Last month, Yuki Kamifuku and Mahiro Kiryu were supposed to team together in Narimasu and fight for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. Kamifuku had to pull out of the match with a broken finger. When Kiryu challenged her for the International Princess Title this week, the champion knew it must take place in Narimasu for that reason.

Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel will be on the show. Two things happen every time NEO Biishiki-gun reappear in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Sakisama and her loyal partner go after the Princess Tag Titles and they end up feuding with the newer members of the roster. Suzume & Sena Shiori look to be the feud if Saint-Michel’s immediate opinion on them is anything to go by.

Long ago, way back in February of this year Homoiro Clover Z reunited at a BOYZ show. Their return was met with defiance from the also reunited NωA and the two sides argued over who the real music idols of DDT were. As a member of both units, Makoto Oishi was stuck in the middle and unable to choose a side. A decision was made to do an Oishi Contra Oishi match with the winners getting Oishi all to themselves. The idea was forgotten about when BOYZ came back in August but it’s happening here on Christmas Eve! Oishi has to wrestle for both teams too.

There is one other match to be announced.

1b. Shunma Katsumata defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Heat Wave WER!! (6:55).
1c. Sanshiro Takagi defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Throwaway Himawari Bomb into the hot water (13:20).
*V1 for Sanshiro Takagi.

Sanshiro Takagi is exclusively defending the DDT Extreme Title in Street Wrestling matches on Youtube. His first defence was against Shunma Katsumata in a Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls Hardcore match held at a Kanagawa bath house. The first fall took place outdoors in the parking lot. Katsumata brought along a ladder and jumped off it onto Takagi below. Takagi fought back with a pile of chairs he found laying around. He placed Katsumata on a table, climbed the ladder and broke through his opponent with a Diving Body Press for the three count.

The wrestlers went into the bath house for the second fall but first they had to remove their boots out of courtesy. They walked into the public bath and decided to hold the match inside the sauna room. Takagi immediately regretted the decision because he could not handle the heat. Katsumata meanwhile felt at home which makes sense for a member of the DDT Sauna Club. The bath house Heat Master Katsumasa Inoue entered the sauna and filled a bucket with heated stone inside with water to make the room even hotter. Katsumata grabbed his towel and waved the heat wave coming from the bucket over to Takagi, making him tap out from the heat.

The third and final fall took place in the bath area. Katsumata took a quick dip in one of the baths and came out of it feeling so rested that he began to take a nap. The referee lifted his arm three times and Katsumata woke up feeling refreshed. Takagi was thrown back and forth into cold and hot baths before getting trapped inside of a shower booth. He turned the tables by blinding Katsumata with shampoo then began to build a small castle of washing chairs. He grabbed Keigo Nakamura and covered him in soap to try and slide him into Katsumata but the floor was not slippery enough. Katsumata then tried to do the same but Nakamura was still unable to slide. Takagi toppled the chairs on top of Nakamura in disappointment. Katsumata hit Takagi with several Thrust Kicks and a Buzzsaw Kick. He went for the pin but Takagi grabbed onto a bath railing and that counted as a rope break. Katsumata carefully jogged around the room in order to do a Lariat but Takagi blocked it with his own Lariat, knocking Katsumata into a hot bath. Takagi tried pinning him with a couple of Small Packages in the bath but he kept kicking out. The match ended with Takagi doing the Himawari Bomb into the bath for the three count.

Takagi celebrated by looking into the camera and calling for anyone to challenge him. Even amateurs and ordinary people can come fight him. Suddenly, Rambo Kawamura emerged from the bath behind Takagi and he assaulted the champion! He shouted about being abandoned by both his country and by DDT. He no longer has a job so his mission is to take away the DDT Extreme Title. He now has possession of the belt!

The teams were drawn today and all of them are first time pairings. All the wrestlers met up with each other and came up with their team names there and then.

Last year, Ryuji Ito and Shunma Katsumata were meant to team up for the Shuffle Tag Tournament but Ito caught the flu and couldn’t compete. They eventually got to team up in Big Japan and Katsumata wants to give back to Ito for opening the door into death matches for him. Ito has been called a death match artist so Katsumata wants to be the “Death Match Makeup Artist”. According to him this match will be his Big Japan Coloring Project.

There is one other match planned for the show.

10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Mizuki with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (25:37).
*V4 for Yuka Sakazaki.

In the fated battle between The Magical Sugar Rabbits, it was Yuka Sakazaki who came out on top! Mizuki’s new Whirling Candy move wasn’t enough to win her the Princess Of Princess Title. Instead it was Sakazaki’s ultra move, the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro that ensured she held onto the championship. With tears in their eyes, both wrestlers hugged each other after the match before the belt was handed over to Sakazaki. It is a clear sign that they are still close and their team will continue. A rare sight in pro wrestling.

Sakazaki said there was so much love coming from the fans who came to support Tokyo Joshi Pro today. She will give it her all because she loves it and is determined not to lose. She was so focused on her match today that she couldn’t watch the other matches. But when the other wrestlers would come backstage from the ring, she could see their faces sparkling with happiness. The entire roster was brought into the ring to celebrate. Sakazaki said the TJPW roster is changing but she hopes everyone who gathers here will have fun. She looks forward to working with them for many years to come! Mizuki was still crying and told Sakazaki she wanted to go eat hamburger steak. Everyone cheered “Happy Happy” and soap bubbles fell down around them. They then lined up on the stage and thanked everyone for coming today.

Daydream’s year long reign as the Princess Tag Team Champions has come to an end. The Bakuretsu Sisters finally lay claim to the belts on their fourth attempt together. Yuki Aino saved Nodoka Tenma from the Daydream Eternity. From there Tenma gave Rika Tatsumi the Killswitch to get rid of her. Miu Watanabe had the power to keep fighting until Aino put her away with the UBV. Tatsumi said backstage she feels empty without having the white belts anymore. But she also advised Watanabe to stay calm and take time to think about the defeat because Daydream is not finished yet. For the Sisters, they finally climbed the mountain and couldn’t do it without each other. The Bakuretsu Era begins and they want to defend the titles as many times they want!

The vacant International Princess Title now has a champion again. It’s Yuki Kamifuku and it is well deserved too! In the final of the tournament, she faced off against Hikari Noa. Already tired from wrestling earlier, Kamifuku and Noa left nothing to chance. A Double Chop followed by a Dropkick gave Kamifuku an opening to climb the top rope. She hit the Diving Fame Asser to win her first championship! There isn’t a wrestler out there who she is modelling herself after. She wants fans to think she’s cool by being herself. Her goal is to make the championship a symbol for cool, happy, fun girls. She speaks English so she can spread the word around the world that Tokyo Joshi wrestlers are such pretty Japanese people.

Aja Kong and Sareee were both welcomed back for another visit to TJPW. Kong had Maki Itoh waiting for her while Saree was eager to get into exchanges with Miyu Yamashita. The finish involved the two TJPW regulars. Sareee cut Yamashita off giving Itoh chances to use Headbutts. That lead went away after a High Kick and the Attitude Adjustment. Yamashita then ended the match with the Crash Rabbit Heat. Kong said she was happy to return here and is grateful the TJPW fanbase likes her. She told Sareee to “remove her limiter” when she got in the ring with Yamashita because she wanted to see Yamashita do the same. Kong is amazed by her kicking accuracy. She would like to come back next year. Itoh was annoyed that Sareee couldn’t crush Kong and come save her from getting beat. They still get along though because they’re almost the same age and probably would have been in the same grade together if they went to the same school. Sareee would like to wrestle Yamashita again but she also wants to fight Itoh.

A button was brought down to the ring for the Hyper Misao Vs Saki Akai match. Whenever somebody pressed the button, the rules for the match would change into a random stipulation. Before the match began she told the story of when she discovered pro wrestling by going to a DDT Street Wrestling show in 2014. She saw Akai taking part and was inspired by watching her fighting against men, completely turning standard values upside down. So today Misao came up with this match to flip Akai’s values upside down too. Daisuke Kiso pressed the button to start the match. The first rule was the match could not be won with kicking moves. Akai had already kicked Misao in the face when the rule came up so she wasn’t allowed to pin her afterwards. Akai pressed the button and the next rule was pins would not be counted unless the wrestlers spun in circles over a standing baseball bat five times. This left both of them dizzy after several series of spins and pin attempts. The next rule was Falls Count Anywhere as long as they ate from a bag of chocolate. Misao distracted the referee and emptied her chocolate into Akai’s bag. But Akai pressed the button and got a rule that allowed helpers to come down and get involved. Yukio Sakaguchi entered the ring to help Akai! Misao waited for her helper and got Sanshiro Takagi! It went wrong for both sides because Takagi accidentally Clotheslined Misao and Sakaguchi accidentally hit Akai with a Knee Kick. The men focused on fighting each other while the women pressed the button for the last rule. Last Woman Standing! Misao reversed the Quetzalcoatl into the Vanitas but missed the I Am A Hero. The Hyper Gotham Crash was also stopped and Misao was weakened with the Rookie Award. Seeing her chance to win, Akai hit the Quetzalcoatl and Misao couldn’t answer the 10 count, ending the match with a knockout.

When Yuna Manase asked Raku for a Handshake at the start of their match, Raku pretended to fall asleep. Manase complained to Yukinori Matsui but he fell asleep too. She stomped on him to wake him up. Raku took the match seriously by kicking out of the Suzuki Dynamic but she was immediately pinned with a Short Range Lariat afterward. Backstage Manase said the appeal of TJPW is that the matches are bright and fun. She hopes Raku get strong enough to chase after a title soon. Raku described Manase like an older sister who used to live with her but then moved out to go live in Tokyo.

Kamifuku’s path to win the International Princess Title begun today with a major upset over Shoko Nakajima. While Nakajima still wants to challenge for the IP Title, she realises after losing to her kohai that she still has to grow in strength.

Noa had a challenging victory over Mirai Maiumi in her semi-final. Maiumi had plenty of submissions to counter Noa’s Suplexes so Noa had to switch to using the Super Kick. That move weakened Maiumi enough for Noa to pin her with a bridging Blizzard Suplex. Maiumi regrets losing but said this is only the beginning of a new landscape that she will create.

Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Marika Kobashi & Haruna Neko but the result was so close to being the opposite. Neko had Kiryu beat with the Codebreaker but Harajuku broke the count. Kobashi got rid of her and Neko went for another Codebreaker. This time Kiryu caught her and hit a Spinebuster to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

The opening match was Mei Suruga’s TJPW debut. She teamed with the rookie Moka Miyamoto in a losing effort to Suzume & Sena Shiori. For the winners it was a big confidence boost to win inside a big venue. Suruga hopes she picked up some new fans and they will come watch ChocoPro or Gatoh Move.

A new trainee named Arisu Endo introduced herself. She comes from Cheer♥1, the same idol group that produced Reika Saiki. She promised to do her best to debut as soon as possible.

Freelancer Nao Kakuta will regularly appear in Tokyo Joshi beginning 14th November. She told the fans she would like to become someone who can liven up the TJPW ring. She wanted to come here because everyone is cute and have their own clear characters. She sees how much everyone in TJPW loves pro wrestling and it makes her want to get involved.

Four dates at Korakuen Hall in 2021 were announced. The shows will take place on 4th January, 11th February, 17th April and 4th May. “WRESTLE PRINCESS II” will also be held at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 9th October, 2021.

Sakisama returns for a one-off appearance on 14th November. Hyper Misao will face Super Sasadango Machine on 20th November.

Kendo Kashin was spotted inside the venue during the show. He threatened to crash the show during the week looking for Takagi. Presumably he wants to challenge him for the DDT Extreme Title.
