DDT “D GENERATIONS 1” Results

April 8, 2025

DDT “D GENERATIONS 1”, 08/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Oji Shiiba defeated Yuni with the Ungai Soten (8:43).
2. Special Single Match: Daichi Kazato defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Rocket Punch (7:08).
3. Takeshi Masada & Yuki Ishida defeated Munetatsu Nakamura & Ali Najima when Masada pinned Nakamura with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (12:07).
4. Special Tag Match: Soma Takao & Shota defeated Yuya Koroku & Kazuma Sumi when Takao pinned Sumi with the Gin And Tonic (10:34).
5. Special Single Match: Shigehiro Irie defeated Daichi Sato with the Beast Bomber (15:00).
6. Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii defeated To-y with the Spinning Body Bomb (11:35).

The first edition of the new “D GENERATIONS” sub-series showed just high a mountain there is for DDT’s young wrestlers to climb. In the six matches pitting the D GENERATION against veterans and outsiders they were only able to win one match. It is a challenge that their predecessors from the Young Communication generation faced back when they ran shows similar to this for little to no money. Keisuke Ishii made it clear after the main event that his generation have the pride needed to win their matches today. The D GENERATIONS though are too dependant on DDT and the softer modern day wrestling environment. If any of the D GENERATION wrestlers were to step outside of DDT, would they be able to survive in this industry for five or ten years? The veterans here don’t think so. The complaints from Ishii, Soma Takao, Shota and Shigehiro Irie at the end of the show caused a standoff to happen between the two generations in the ring. The likes of To-y and Keigo Nakamura said they don’t care about the past or about money. This series is for the young wrestlers to show their dreams to everyone. They also would like to make a little profit and fill out the seats at the same time.

There was a press conference put together on short notice for Keigo Nakamura to make an announcement. He is going on an indefinite overseas excursion! Over the last few months Nakamura has lost important matches in places like the DDT Vs NOAH rivalry, the D GENERATIONS CUP and most recently the KO-D Tag Team Titles challenge with Shinya Aoki. By the way he hasn’t told Aoki about this plan yet. Nakamura feels like he has reached a turning point and needs to make a change which is why he will travel abroad for training. He will be doing it independantly so he can grow by himself. His final match in Japan before going on excursion will be at the 23rd April DDT show.

Loser Must Join DDT Match, 3 Minutes Impact, GanPro’s Korakuen Main Event

March 17, 2025

I won’t be writing up a preview for the show because I want to keep that to big arena shows and American events. So even though DDT is celebrating their anniversary on Thursday it’s still a Korakuen Hall show at the end of the day. Also I’ve had a busy St. Patrick’s Day and would like to sleep some of it off while I have the chance. The next previews I write will be for the Las Vegas shows next month.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2025 ~28TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 20/03/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 57th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions Decision Match – Kazusada Higuchi & Shunma Katsumata Double Return Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi

The DDT Extreme Title match will be held under normal pro wrestling rules however the stipulation is in regards to the result. If Danshoku Dieno wins then Super Sasadango Machine must become a full time regular member of the DDT roster again instead of his current semi-affiliation with the company. If Sasadango wins and becomes champion then Dieno’s pet dog Haku must join the DDT roster!

A few things are noticeable here in the first show after “GRAND PRINCESS ’25”. It’s mostly opponents at that show going back to teaming with each other. Daisy Monkey look to be on the same page and so to are RakuPom. We also have Kyoraku Kyomei’s first match since winning the Princess Tag Team Titles. The team that isn’t together anymore is 121000000 because Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh have been put in different matches here.

Kira Summer will not be at the show due to family reasons.

A new match type is being introduced on the MatchMake & Agent show.

The 3 Minutes Impact match has a three minute time limit and is being booked to air on DDT’s Twitter page. The first match under the rules has Shigehiro Irie taking on former All Japan now JTO associated wrestler Ryoma Tsukamoto.

Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Shota Kawakami 1st Anniversary Match: Shota Kawakami Vs Shota

HARUKAZE will have her last match for a while on this show. She is taking a break from pro wrestling to go work for her father’s business.

6. Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii Vs To-y

Enough time has passed for DDT to try running another series of shows for young wrestlers again. They’re sticking with the D GENERATIONS branding and looking at the card I can see representatives from DDTeeeen!!, DNA and Young Communication too. To-y has been the standout of the current crop so he takes on Keisuke Ishii, who was seen in a similar position to him more than a decade ago. Two days after Daichi Sato becomes an official member of DDT he faces Shigehiro Irie, a former heavyweight main eventer for the company.

There’s a couple other guests too. Daichi Kazato is coming over from BASARA and the show gives ROMANCE DAWN another chance to team together. Oji Shiiba is a former Dragongate wrestler who has spent the 2020s roaming around the indies. Ali Najima is a new wrestler from Sportiva Entertainment who only debuted last year.

The week started off with good news regarding Yuki Ueno. His test results for hematuria showed no signs of abnormality so his doctor have given him permission to start wrestling again. Ueno’s return to the ring will be at Korakuen Hall.

In news that might be more exciting than it sounds Kaisei Takechi will be at the show as a guest commentator. He last wrestled in DDT back in October. Who knows, maybe he’ll get the itch to have a match again this year.

DDT “IT’S FINALLY HERE!! KAZUKI HIRATA 15TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE EVENT ~ TALK! 15 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 12/03/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Talk! 15 Years Of HIRATA GO!! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazuki Hirata, Keisuke Ishii & X Vs YO-HEY, Kenshin Chikano & Soma Takao

I wasn’t sure if Kazuki Hirata’s 15th Anniversary show was going to be a wrestling show or a special talk event. Looks like it is the former. The main event is Hirata in a 6-Man Tag Match with several wrestlers who are close to him and also a mystery partner. Keisuke Ishii, Soma Takao, YO-HEY and Kenshin Chikano have all spent a lot of time with Hirata in and out of the wrestling ring. Katsumi Tamagawa will also be involved as the referee for the bout.

Other wrestlers booked for the show include Shinya Aoki, Shigehiro Irie, Shota, Naruki Doi and Punch Tominaga.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2025 ~28TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 20/03/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Kazusada Higuchi Return Match: Kazusada Higuchi Vs X
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & To-y (c) Vs Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura
3. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs X

We still don’t know who Chris Brookes wants to defend the KO-D Openweight Title against at DDT’s 28th Anniversary show. The only information we know is Brookes has whittled his choices down to about five wrestlers. He still hasn’t said who is among them.

One of Japan’s strongest tag teams have come to challenge the KO-D Tag Team Champions. If there is any pair of wrestlers out there who can match the eccentric levels of MAO & To-y it’s the Astronauts/Fighting Detectives of Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura!

Coming to DDT this March is the Japan debut of “The Fire” JJ Furno! He is a high flying wrestler from Melbourne, Australia who was strongly recommended to DDT by Royce Chambers. Furno will be touring with DDT for eight shows starting on 20th March until 6th April.

GANBARE☆PRO “WHERE EAGLES DARE 2024” Results

November 17, 2024

GANBARE☆PRO “WHERE EAGLES DARE 2024”, 17/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
186 Fans

1. Tyson Maeguchi defeated Shota Kawakami with a High Kick (6:58).
2. PSYCHO & Moeka Haruhi defeated Black Menso-re & HARUKAZE when Haruhi submitted HARUKAZE with the 79.5MHz 2.0 (12:28).
3. Yuna Manase & Nanami defeated YuuRI & Soy when Manase pinned Soy with the Lariat (10:17).
4. Yuya Susumu defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Front Crash (11:27).
5. Kouki Iwasaki 10th Anniversary Match: Kouki Iwasaki, Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa, Yumehito Imanari & Rekka when Iwasaki pinned Rekka with the Back Drop Hold (18:57).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Ken Ohka & Shuji Ishikawa when Watase pinned Ohka with a Headbutt (20:47).
*V3 for Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase.
7. Emergency Decision ~ Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Yumehito Imanari defeated Shuichiro Katsumura with the Lou Thesz Press (8:04).

At the end of the show Keisuke Ishii was given the microphone to give out a closing speech. Yumehito Imanari interrupted him and challenged Ishii for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title on 27th December. Shuichiro Katsumura then got involved because he wants to be the next contender instead of Imanari. Michiyoshi Mishima was put on the spot to make a decision and after listening to the calls from fans as well as all the wrestlers he booked an impromptu No. 1 Contender match to take place immediately!

Imanari dodged a Moonsault from Katsumura and pinned him with the Lou Thesz Press to win the match and get the next title shot. He thanked Katsumura after the match for his behind the scenes work with Ganbare☆Pro especially when he is surrounded by people like himself who make unreasonable demands. He loves Ishii but has been beaten down by him so many times. In order to prove everything he has built in GanPro he needs to beat Ishii and take the title from him! He also identified Ishii’s father in the audience. Ishii’s father is a fan of Imanari and always cheers for him. So even though they get along, Imanari warns him that he will win the championship from his son!

Ken Ohka missed another chance to get a big championship win in his own company. He came close to pinning Mizuki Watase with the Flame Spear but Watase kicked out at the 2.99 count. He also ended up getting injured by dislocating his elbow during the match. Then when Shuji Ishikawa was busy fighting Shigehiro Irie outside the ring, Watase took over and pinned Ohka after a big Headbutt. Watase said afterward that Ohka cannot shine without having Danshoku Dieno & Muscle Sakai there to back him up. He wants Ohka to continue leading GanPro but he also wishes Ohka would have more trust in the rest of the GanPro family. Meanwhile Irie is worried he won’t be defending the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles again for the rest of the year because nobody came out to challenge them. Watase wants to spread the word out that they will defend the titles against anybody no matter what kind of wrestling they represent.

Kouki Iwasaki received more than just a bouquet for his 10th Anniversary Match. Katsumura also gave him a gift of diapers to celebrate the recent birth of Iwasaki’s second child. Iwasaki thanked everyone involved in the match as well as GanPro’s fans and management. He’s going to work harder than ever for his family and will look forward to his 15th and 20th anniversaries. He also said backstage that simply wrestling in GanPro is meaningless so if he comes back here next year he wants to fight for the Spirit Of Ganbare Title.

The FREEDOMS rivalry between F-SWAG and Munetatsu Nakamura led to Yuya Susumu coming over today for a match with Nakamura. The reigning King Of FREEDOM World Junior Heavyweight Champion won the match and flaunted his belt in front of Katsumura afterwards. He also tried to shake Nakamura’s hand after the match but was rejected. Nakamura has made it his goal to win that title from Susumu whether it happens in GanPro or in FREEDOMS.

DDT “CHARISMANIA” Results

November 6, 2024

DDT “CHARISMANIA”, 06/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE
500 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. KUBITO & Naohiro Katsumi 19th Anniversary Match: KUBITO defeated Naohiro Katsumi with the Crossface Lock (6:59).
2. Ram Kaichow, Endo Kaichow & Kodara Kaichow (w/ Mataro) defeated Brahman Shu, Brahman Masa & Brahman Keigo (w/ Brahman Kei) when Ram pinned Keigo with a School Boy (10:12).
3. Demus, Ilusion & Anarko Montaña defeated Kaito Ishida, Shunma Katsumata & Diego when Ilusion pinned Diego with the Swanton Bomb (10:53).
4. Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami & MJ Paul defeated Masashi Takeda & Daichi Sato when Paul pinned Sato with the Reverse Splash (15:27).
5. Special Single Match: Shigehiro Irie defeated KANON with the Beast Bomber (17:37).
6. The Greatest Wrestling Match Of CHARISMANIA: Daisuke Sasaki & Yuko Miyamoto defeated Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita when Sasaki submitted Fujita with La Mistica Crossface Lock (25:19).

Has the student has surpassed his master? Daisuke Sasaki is now entering his 20th year as a pro wrestler so to celebrate he organized “CHARISMANIA” and put himself in the main event with his mentor Dick Togo as well as two wrestlers he looks up to Yuko Miyamoto and Minoru Fujita. All four wrestlers are used to either wrestling dirty or fighting in violent death matches but they instead all fought clean for today’s special match. Togo used La Mistica Crossface Lock on Sasaki and Fujita followed up with the SAYONARA Tombstone. They wanted to finish him off with the Double Impact but Miyamoto cut them off. Sasaki gave Togo the Pedigree and then used his own La Mistica Crossface Lock to submit Fujita. Sasaki & Miyamoto received a prize from members of the rock band HEAD PHONES PRESIDENT for winning the main event.

Sasaki said the other three wrestlers will eternally be his idols. For his 20th anniversary he wants to finally surpass his master and challenged Togo to a singles match. Togo said he isn’t in the best condition right now and there is a clear difference between them. He asked Sasaki to wait five years so Togo can get into his best shape and also get to wrestle the match at 60! Sasaki will be turning 40 next November but don’t tell him he’s getting weaker as he gets older. He doesn’t have time to get old and promised he will defeat his master eventually! Sasaki also wants to run “CHARISMANIA” as an annual event until he’s held it 2000 times!

Naturally DAMNATION T.A were the featured players for most of the show. KANON also took the fair play route when he fought Shigehiro Irie. He tried fighting as hard as he could by giving Irie a Falcon Arrow as well as the Cobra Twist. Irie smashed him with an Elbow Strike, dropped him from the top rope with an Avalanche Back Flip and pinned him with the Beast Bomber. KANON gave Irie the middle finger instead of shaking his hand after the match.

It wasn’t all clean and fair fighting from the DAMNATION T.A wrestlers. Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami & MJ Paul got into a chair fight with Masashi Takeda & Daichi Sato during their tag match. To be fair, Takeda was just as responsible for making the match violent and also wanted to attack Fire Damnation with his pair of scissors. Sato also stepped up to Paul but was ultimately beaten by him with the Reverse Splash.

Ilusion was joined by Demus & Anarko Montaña to take on the babyface trio of Kaito Ishida, Shunma Katsumata & Diego. Demus brought a more grimy style that worked well with Ilusion & Montaña’s high flying. It ended with that team getting the win when Ilusion pinned Diego with the Swanton Bomb.

Match #2 was the Brahman Army taking on the Kaichow Army with a lot of wrestlers taking either gimmick. The Brahman Brothers got Masahiro Takanashi & Keigo Nakamura to act like them while Ram Kaichow convinced Tetsuya Endo & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi to copy her looks and behavior. Kaichow also brought along the now retired Mataro to be in her team’s corner. Mataro is the member of DDT’s video team who was kept getting put into DAMNATION T.A’s matches during this year’s Beer Garden shows until he was forced to retire from the bit. The Brahman Army attacked him with bats, poured buckets of water over him, dripped slime from their mouths onto him and also put him in the line of fire for the bowling ball suitcase spot. He at least got revenge by doing the same bowling ball spot to the Brahmans. He then got blinded when Kaichow missed her Ectoplasm powder throw and hit him with it by accident. Brahamn Shu threw the suitcase at Kaichow but she dodged it and Nakamura got hit instead. Kaichow took advantage and pinned Nakamura with a School Boy to win.

Two other wrestlers from the SUPER CREW class who debuted along with Sasaki got a spot in the opener. KUBITO beat Naohiro Katsumi in a match that celebrated the 19th anniversary of their debuts. It was also Katsumi’s first wrestling match in 12 years! The two made comments to each other during the match about how long it’s been since they last saw each other. Katsumi also gradually remembered his signature moves as the match went on.

Brahman Kei made his first public appearance in Michinoku Pro over the weekend after getting surgery to remove a tumor. He won’t be able to wrestle for a while yet but is capable of being at ringside for Brahman Shu’s matches again. In order to keep the two teams even, Ram Kaichow has gone looking for someone extra to look out for her team against the Brahmans.

The feud between SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A is just getting started! Some of the undercard matches have been changed to adapt with the current turn of events.

Two singles matches building up the next KO-D Tag Team Titles match are happening here. Shunma Katsumata can take a big scalp if he can beat Tetsuya Endo by himself. Yuya Koroku has a recent pinfall win over Katsumata but can he get the same result against MAO?

GANBARE☆PRO “WHERE EAGLES DARE 2024”, 17/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Tyson Maeguchi Vs Shota Kawakami
2. Yuna Manase & Nanami Vs YuuRI & Soy
3. PSYCHO & Moeka Haruhi Vs Black Menso-re & HARUKAZE
4. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Yuya Susumu
5. Kouki Iwasaki 10th Anniversary Match: Kouki Iwasaki, Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa, Yumehito Imanari & Rekka
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Shuji Ishikawa

The main event was originally meant to happen in August but the show was cancelled over typhoon concerns. It took a while to reschedule it but Ken Ohka got a date where Shuji Ishikawa is available to be on the show so they can challenge Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles.

HARUKAZE still has not won a match since Ganbare☆Pro went independent. She hopes teaming up with Black Menso-re is what she needs to finally grab a win for herself. Moeka Haruhi has PSYCHO as her partner to try and continue HARUKAZE’s losing streak.

Ishikawa coming over means he will be bringing someone else from Evolution with him to represent the promotion. Soy is still in her rookie year as a wrestler. Her outsider opponent on the other team is Nanami from Diana.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2024”, 22/12/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Tomohiro Ishii Vs Yuki Iino

DDT wants to end 2024 on some high notes by running a Korakuen Hall show and a Sumo Hall show in the last few weeks of December. For Korakuen Yuki Iino is getting a singles match against Tomohiro Ishii! What will it be like when a Stone Pitbull is BURNING?

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”, 28/12/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. O-MENZ Kumadori Debut Match: Kumadori Vs X
2. Haruto Sakuraba Debut Match: Haruto Sakuraba Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

I have to say I didn’t expect to see Chris Brookes win the KO-D Openweight Title from Shinya Aoki. Even more so I didn’t expect the next Sumo Hall main event to be Brookes Vs Sasaki for the belt. Sasaki is sick of hearing people like Brookes in DDT talk about love and dreams. He is more motivated to make the lives of those people a living hell than he is to become the champion again.

More personalities from the entertainment world are coming to make their pro wrestling debuts in DDT. This time it is a masked man named Kumadori from the “Dance Terrorist Group” O-MENZ. According to Kumadori he is one of the most muscular members of the group and he wants to unleash his breakdancing wrestler skills in the ring. This deal came together when Kumadori met Sanshrio Takagi through a mutual acquaintance. He told Takagi directly that he wanted to give wrestling a try. I looked up some O-MENZ videos online and I think the closest comparison I can think of is they’re like a Japanese version of Jabbawockeez.

GANBARE☆PRO “HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER 2024” Results

November 3, 2024

GANBARE☆PRO “HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER 2024”, 03/11/2024
Osaka 176BOX
123 Fans

1. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase defeated HARUKAZE & YuuRI when Manase pinned HARUKAZE with the Lariat (11:07).
2. Harutoki defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Moonsault Press (11:24).
3. Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Tsuyoshi Okada defeated Shuichiro Katsumura, Hiroaki Moriya & Shota Kawakami when Imanari pinned Kawakami with a Power Bomb (14:20).
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) defeated Hartley Jackson with the Momoiro Kick (14:05).
*V4 for Keisuke Ishii.
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Naoki Tanizaki & Kohei Kinoshita when Watase pinned Kinoshita with an Elbow Butt (22:49).
*V2 for Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase.

A few weeks ago Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase fought Naoki Tanizaki & Kohei Kinoshita on a KOBE Meriken Pro show. Kinoshita pulled off an upset by pinning Watase and made the argument afterwards to get a shot at the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. That led to the rematch today in Ganbare☆Pro where the champions got their revenge with a successful title defence. Ken Ohka then challenged Irie & Watase for the titles on 17th November. His partner is going to be Shuji Ishikawa just like how it was meant to be back in August before that month’s show was cancelled because of a typhoon. However Ohka admitted he doesn’t know yet if Ishikawa is actually available for the new date. He’s confident Ishikawa will be there.

Keisuke Ishii has now tied the record for most successful Spirit Of Ganbare World Title defences after he beat Hartley Jackson.
