DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2023 TOUR IN SENDAI”, 14/01/2023
Sendai City Miyagino Ward Bunka Center
198 Fans – No Vacancy

1. MJ Paul & KANON defeated Yusuke Okada & Keigo Nakamura when KANON pinned Nakamura with the Sleepy Hollow (9:25).
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno defeated Kazuki Hirata & Kazuma Sumi when Iino pinned Sumi with the Sexy Roll 2023 (8:45).
3. Jun Akiyama & Toru Owashi defeated Yukio Naya & Takeshi Masada when Akiyama pinned Masada with the Exploder Suplex (11:19).
4. Special Single Match: Makoto Oishi defeated Shunma Katsumata by Countout (10:57).
5. Special Tag Match: Yuji Hino & Akito defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Akito pinned Ishida with a Stepover Toe Hold (12:08).
6. Special Challenge Match: Tetsuya Endo defeated Yuya Koroku with the Burning Star Press (15:38).
7. Sendai Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toi Kojima defeated HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes & Hideki Okatani when MAO pinned Okatani with the Cannonball 450 (17:48).

Maybe it’s because MAO’s head still feels a little shaken from taking the Cactus Flower yesterday but today he showed his appreciation for his teammates in The 37KAMIINA. After winning the main event, MAO told the fans he lives with the support of everyone around him. He said it is thanks to Shunma Katsumata that ShunMao are the KO-D Tag Team Champions. He also thinks it is now impossible to become a singles champion again so he lives for tag team wrestling.

BURNING members Tetsuya Endo and Yuya Koroku face each other in the semi-main event. Koroku thought he had gotten stronger from training with Endo for a year but Endo was still able to beat him. Koroku understands he is not at the same level yet and will continue to get stronger. Endo is now moving his thoughts over to the upcoming singles match against Yuki Iino on 21st January. Endo teased he has a secret plan for the match.

The chests of Kazusada Higuchi and Yuji Hino were still raw from all of their chops yesterday. They continued where they left off today. Not only are they still Chopping each other but they apply the Brain Claws to each other too. Backstage Hino said on 29th January he wants this to reach the level where they hit each other until their hearts rip open! Meanwhile Akito is just happy he won a match against someone other than Pheromones for the first time in half a year. He pinned Yuki Ishida with a Stepover Toe Hold.

The match between Shunma Katsumata and Makoto Oishi had a lot of sticky tape involved. The two fought outside over to the ring announcer’s table where the roll of tape was taken. Katsumata stuck tape over Oishi’s mouth and also wrapped Oishi’s ankles together. Oishi was able to pull the tape off and choke Katsumata with it. He later wrapped tape around Katsumata’s eyes while they were outside the ring. Katsumata stumbled around ringside blindly and got counted out.

Daisuke Sasaki was missing from the show after telling KANON yesterday he will disappear for a while. MJ Paul took his place in the opening match. Everyone in DAMNATION T.A is currently puzzled over Sasaki’s absence and are wondering where he went.

It sounds like she is at least going to remain the EVE Champion for now.

Due to scheduling conflicts, Wakana Uehara will not have her next wrestling match until after 15th January. However she in the process of adjusting her schedule to become a regular on Tokyo Joshi Pro shows from that point onwards.

Here I was thinking the biggest corporate story in wrestling this week would be either DDT taking the trademark for exploding death matches from Atsushi Onita or Toi Kojima unseating Sanshiro Takagi as the president of CyberFight. It all sounds so quiet and peaceful compared to what’s happening in WWE the last 24 hours.

A time limit draw has resulted in Naruki Doi and Daisuke Sasaki both getting a DDT Universal Title match against Yuki Ueno. The three of them agreed to do a Survival 3 Way Match, meaning it is elimination rules. Everyone in the match is convinced they can beat the other two in under 60 minutes.

We’re getting a preview for Kazusada Higuchi and Yuji Hino with their buddies Yuki Ishida and Yukio Naya coming along for the ride.

A decade ago Sanshiro Takagi teamed with Munenori Sawa as Hentai Dai Shacho. Now he is forming a new team with Sawa’s protege Fuminori Abe called Bonno Dai Shacho. It’s another path Takagi is taking in 2023 to bring himself back to his peak pro wrestling form.
