BASARA “BASARA 263 ~HIEN~” Results

November 29, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 263 ~HIEN~”, 29/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1: Takato Nakano defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the Takagari (6:47).
2. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1: Masato Kamino defeated Isami Kodaka with the Lariat (7:43).
3. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: Ryota Nakatsu defeated Takato Nakano with the V Slider (5:15).
4. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: Masato Kamino defeated FUMA with a Cradle (10:18).
5. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ikuto Hidaka & Itsuki Aoki defeated Ryuichi Sekine, Takeru Inoue & Fuminori Abe when Hidaka submitted Inoue with the Shawn Capture (15:17).
6. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Final: Masato Kamino defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Lariat (17:16).

Masato Kamino is the last man standing afer winning three matches in the 1-Day Tournament. All of his opponents were former Union MAX Champions too. He beat Isami Kodaka clean in Round 1, survived FUMA’s Crossface Lock to roll him up for a pinfall in Round 2 and outlasted Ryota Nakatsu with a Lariat to the back of the head in the final. The tournament was Kamino’s idea in the first place and he received praise from Takato Nakano (who also beat a former champion in Takumi Tsukamoto before getting eliminated by Nakatsu) for winning it.

Kamino told the fans he wants to get his MAX Title shot at the last BASARA show of the year. Suddenly Minoru Fujita entered the room to everyone’s surprise because he was already wrestling in Shinjuku FACE today. He got in the ring in a hurry and told Kamino they will have the title match at 29th December, which is what Kamino wanted anyway. Fujita wants to end the year with a successful title defence so he can say 2024 was his year from start to finish. Kamino shared a toast with him to confirm the match rather than go through a contract signing ceremony.

Itsuki Aoki now has the distinction of being the first woman to wrestle in BASARA. Her Shawn Capture leader Ikuto Hidaka won their match by using, what else, the Shawn Capture for the submission victory.

Coming up in December is Takumi Saito’s first time wrestling in DDT. The Aichi wrestler went to the same junior high school as Kazuchika Okada and discovered pro wrestling because of Okada’s success. His father also used to be a bodybuilder so Saito thought becoming a pro wrestler would let him do weight training for a living. Saito has recently been wrestling on the Tochigi Pro side of ZERO1 as well as the NOAH Limit Break shows.

DDT “ROAD TO ULTIMATE PARTY 2024 IN OSAKA”, 15/12/2024
Osaka City Konohana Kumin Hall

7. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kazuki Hirata

The growing grudge between Yuki Ueno and Kazuki Hirata over the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title will come to a head with a singles match now booked for next month. Ueno keeps winning the Iron Man Title from Hirata and Hirata keeps attacking Ueno with a hammer to win it back. Right now the belt is not on either of them but the grudge still needs to be settled so they can both have clear heads going into Sumo Hall. Well, I’m not sure how clear a head can get when you smash one with a hammer but I’ll let them worry about that.

“The Black Sheep” Carnatux from Bahrain contacted Daisuke Kiso this week telling them he is moving to Japan in December. One of the reasons he is travelling over is to become the first wrestler from the Persian Gulf region to wrestle in DDT! He has spent his career wrestling across the Middle East.

To-y and Koroku’s second match against each other is happening in Osaka.

DDT “MEET & GREET & FIGHT IN OSAKA”, 15/12/2024

2. Danshoku Dieno, HARASHIMA & Yuni Vs Yukio Naya, Keigo Nakamura & To-y
3. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs Kazuma Sumi

2. Queen Of Asia Title & VPW Women’s Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c/c) Vs Lei Ying Lee

The Asian Double Crown match that was meant to happen between Yuki Kamifuku and Xia Zhao in October will now take place at Tokyo Joshi Pro’s last show of the year. Zhao is now wrestling under the name Lei Ying Lee and she just recently signed a new deal with TNA. Kamifuku is now upset she will spend the end of her year worrying about a big title match where she’ll have to fight the opponent by herself.

TJPW is ending the year with their own Royal Rumble with 20 participants taking part. There will be a new entrant every 90 seconds and elimination will be by pinfall, submission or throwing someone over the top rope to the floor below. There will be guest wrestlers involved as well as the usual TJPW roster with names to be announced soon.

Yuki Arai will be on the show. She made a big announcement today that she will be graduating from SKE48 on 31st March next year. Nothing was said in regards to her wrestling career so we have to wait and see where her future lies. Will she be graduating from TJPW too next year or does this mean she’s going give her full commitment to wrestling in 2025?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW 11TH BIRTHDAY”, 01/12/2024
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX

1. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Kaya Toribami Vs Chika Nanase
2. Moka Miyamoto Vs Kira Summer
3. Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko Vs Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino
5. Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs Mizuki, Suzume, Arisu Endo & Yoshiko Hasegawa
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Haru Kazashiro & Toga

This is the second time in a row the two finalists of the Next Generation Tournament are teaming up for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. This time it’s the tournament prize for the winner. Haru Kazashiro beat Toga in the final to earn a title shot of her choice. She picked the Tag Titles because Maki Itoh is who she looks up to most and she’s aiming to take the title from her. She then asked Toga to be her partner for the match. Funnily enough, Toga was going to make the same choice for a similar reason because she wants to fight Miyu Yamashita for a championship. So it all conveniently works out for everyone!

Pom Harajuku is not on the show because she will be wrestling in Thailand that weekend.

BASARA “BASARA 264 ~KOO~”, 13/12/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken Vs Ayato Yoshida & Kazumasa Yoshida

Once again Ayato Yoshida comes to BASARA and finds himself dealing with Daichi Kazato whether he wants to or not. His teammate here Kazumasa Yoshida is from Big Japan.

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

1. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Super Sasadango Machine
2. Special Single Match: Tomohiro Ishii Vs Yuki Iino

Apparently Ueno has been wanting a singles match with Super Sasadango Machine for a while.

GANBARE☆PRO “SOME DAY THE SUN WILL SHINE 2024”, 27/12/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Kitsune World Title: Yuna Manase (c) Vs MICHIKO
2. Special Single Match: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Dick Togo
3. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Yumehito Imanari

An impromptu No. 1 Contenders match on the last Ganbare☆Pro show is what leads to Yumehito Imanari getting his chance to fight Keisuke Ishii for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. He beat Shuichiro Katsumura to do it. But while Katsumura is out of the title picture for now he is still getting an important match at the end of the year. Ishii encouraged him to go challenge Dick Togo to a match! Katsumura’s link to Togo is a very minor one but it is a story he told Ishii over drinks one night. Back when Katsumura was in high school he visited the Universal Lucha Libre dojo wanting to join it. He didn’t have the courage to go through with the plan but he remembers seeing a trainee walk past him into the building. That trainee was Togo! So this match 30 years in the making must be fate for Katsumura.

Over the weekend at a GLEAT show, MICHIKO pinned Yuna Manase in a 6-Man Tag Match and challenged her afterwards for the Kitsune World Title. Manase accepted the challenge and convinced Kitsune to let the title match take place in GanPro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’25”, 04/01/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Suzume

The first match for Ittenyon 2025 has been announced. Suzume has learned to appreciate the worldwide appeal of pro wrestling after her recent trip to America so she is challenging Yuki Arai for the International Princess Title!

The complete card with consist of around 9 or 10 matches.

“SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMERATION EVENT ~ NEVER SAY NEVER”, 03/02/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Tag Match: Dump Matsumoto & Toru Owashi Vs Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei

In an odd move Sanshiro Takagi is deciding not to use DDT for his 30th Anniversary show next year. Instead he wants to rely solely on his decades worth of connections across the Japanese scene to come up with a wrestling show filled with matches you won’t believe. Matches like Dump Matsumoto & Toru Owashi Vs The Brahman Brothers. Nobody under a full contract with DDT will be booked for the show. Takagi himself is unlikely to wrestle either unless he unexpectedly gets medically cleared in time.

HiSPC 6th Anniversary, BASARA 1 Day Tournament, Akiyama Vs Naya

November 18, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Haruna Neko Vs Pom Harajuku Vs Mahiro Kiryu
2. Wakana Uehara, Kira Shummer & Chika Nanase Vs HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami
3. Mizuki & Kaya Toribami Vs Zara Zakher & Yuki Aino
4. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Miu Watanabe, Raku, Suzume & Moka Miyamoto
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: Toga Vs Haru Kazashiro
6. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
7. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shazza McKenzie

The winner of the Next Generation Tournament will get a title match of their choice as the prize. Miu Watanabe is currently waiting to see who will emerge as her 4th January Princess Of Princess Title opponent. 121000000 are also currently without any contenders for the Princess Tag Team Titles in Japan. The timing of the final taking place beneath an International Princess Title main event is notable too. It could be a big day for Toga or Haru Kazashiro to win the tournament final and then reappear at the end of the show to call out one of the champions.

The other six wrestlers who competed in the tournament will be taking part in a 6-Woman Tag Match.

Both Haruna Neko and Pom Harajuku debuted in November 2018 so they are celebrating their anniversaries together in the same match. Mahiro Kiryu is from the same class as them (HiSPC) but didn’t debut until February 2019. The other two members from that class were YUMI (retired) and Himawari Unagi (now known as Sayaka Unagi).

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024”, 23/11/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Demus & Ilusion Vs To-y & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura Vs HARASHIMA, Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. Akito 15th Anniversary Debut Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Akito
4. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Kazuki Hirata 37th Birthday Special 1 Vs 7 Handicap Match: Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Soma Takao, Yuki Iino, Diego & Yuki Ishida
5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul (c) Vs Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Takeshi Masada
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku
7. DDT Extreme Title – You’re Still A Cinderella As You Climb The Ladder To Adulthood Rules: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Yuni

The DDT Extreme Title match will periodically go into “Cinderella Time” where Danshoku Dieno will be instantly disqualified if he does any of his Danshoku moves on Yuni. When “Cinderella Time” is inactive, Dieno is allowed to wrestle like he normally does. The match must have a winner and cannot be called off as a No Contest.

The next SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A battle will now have the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title is no longer part of the Dieno Vs Yuni match because Kazuki Hirata is now the latest champion. That means he will likely defend it in the 7-on-1 Handicap Match.

BASARA “BASARA 263 ~HIEN~”, 29/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1A: Takato Nakano Vs Takumi Tsukamoto
2. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1B: Isami Kodaka Vs Masato Kamino
3. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: Ryota Nakatsu Vs Winner Of Match 1A
4. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: FUMA Vs Winner Of Match 1B
5. Ryuichi Sekine, Takeru Inoue & Fuminori Abe Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ikuto Hidaka & Itsuki Aoki
6. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Final: X Vs X

It looks like BASARA could not find room on the schedule this year to run their annual Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament. So we have to do with a one day tournament to crown the No. 1 Contender for the Union MAX Title instead after a bunch of the roster all argued that they should get the next shot.

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. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

A mighty challenge awaits Yukio Naya in the heavyweight division. He thinks he is ready to fight Jun Akiyama one on one again! Their only previous singles match together was back in 2020 on a Bakuha Koshien show, which Akiyama won. Akiyama thinks Sumo Hall is the best place to host the rematch.

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.

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~” Results

November 8, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~”, 08/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Lil’ Kraken defeated Takeru Inoue with the Period. (7:23).
2. Basara Jacket 4 Way Match: Daisuke Sekimoto defeated KUBITO, Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga by TKO when Ryu injured his back giving Sekimoto the Argentine Backbreaker (R3 1:47).
3. SAGAT & Antonio Honda defeated Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi when SAGAT pinned Urano with the Superman Press (14:25).
4. Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Tsuki no Ishi (10:19).
5. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita defeated Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida when Kodaka pinned Yoshida with the Modified Samson Clutch (23:12).

On 24th November Isami Kodaka will be challenging Ayato Yoshida for the 2AW Openweight Title at Korakuen Hall. Due to scheduling 2AW were not able to book any prelim matches between the two so BASARA organised one for today. Kodaka’s team went into the match with a small disadvantage because Minoru Fujita wrestled with a dislocated and fractured thumb joint. Yoshida was made to team with Daichi Kazato against his wishes because he had enough of him from his previous BASARA appearance in August. He was right to be concerned because Kazato decided to hurt his own hand before fighting Fujita to make sure it was now an even fight between them. Also Kazato ended up costing Yoshida the match when he missed a Rocket Punch and hit his partner by mistake. Kodaka then put Yoshida in the Modified Samson Clutch for the three count.

Kodaka told Yoshida after the match he will give it his all on 24th November and won’t beat him in a weird way like today. He’s been a champion in many promotions but never for 2AW so he’s looking forward to adding one of their championships to his collection. Fujita also promoted his own match on the show and offered to be in Kodaka’s corner. The two of them allowed Yoshida to close out the show but he got annoyed because he doesn’t understand why they would let him do that. He also got angry at the fans booing his closing speech. Backstage Yoshida said BASARA and its fans are all messed up and full of annoying people.

Gouma Ryu’s bad back became a problem for him again. He wanted to put Daisuke Sekimoto in the Argentine Backbreaker but didn’t have the strength to lift him. KUBITO and Banana Senga helped Ryu commit to the move but when Ryu lifted Sekimoto onto his shoulders his back went out and he had to give up the match. Sekimoto wanted to read out a legal indictment out of the match but Senga interrupted him. Senga then revealed the Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial will return next time.

The Period. (the full stop is intentional) used by Lil’ Kraken is a Standing Shining Wizard.

3. SAGAT & Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi
4. Daiki Shimomura Vs Tsutomu Oosugi
5. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida

The Basara Jacket world rankings has KUBITO at 12th, Gouma Ryu at 3rd and Banana Senga being no longer ranked. Daisuke Sekimoto is also unranked but that’s because he hasn’t done a match like this yet.

DDT/DEFY “DDT IN UTERO”, 09/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA

7. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Kohei Kinoshita
8. DDT Universal Title – 3 Way Match: MAO (c) Vs Mike Bailey Vs Miyu Yamashita

The card is now pretty much complete. Nick Wayne is getting a match against Jack Cartwheel while Marina Shafir is only being advertised as “in action”. So it’s possible she might show just up to beat the crap out of somebody and then leave.

Right now Yuni is the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion so odds are good the title will be brought over to Seattle for the weekend.

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024”, 23/11/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Demus & Ilusion Vs To-y & Kazuma Sumi
2. Kazuki Hirata 37th Birthday Special 1 Vs 7 Handicap Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuki Ueno, Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Soma Takao, Yuki Iino, Diego & Yuki Ishida

7. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Danshoku Dieno (E/c) Vs Yuni (I/c)

Speaking of the Iron Man Title, Yuni is expected to have it with him when he faces Danshoku Dieno for the DDT Extreme Title match, which means it should be a double championship match.

Kazuki Hirata will have turned 37 a few days before this show. DDT is celebrating it by making him fight seven wrestlers at the same time.

DDT “GORGEOUS NIGHT”, 24/11/2024
Fukushima Toyota Crown Arena (Fukushima National Athletic Meet Memorial Gymnasium) Sub-Arena

1. SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Demus
2. Fukushima Specialty 6-Man Tag Match: Gorgeous Matsuno, Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA Vs Yuki Ueno, MAO & Kazuma Sumi

A special night for Gorgeous Matsuno has him teaming up with Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA.

The SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A feud continues with CDK facing Daisuke Sasaki and his latest amigo Demus.

Makoto Oishi and Moeka Haruhi will both be on the show.

DNA “DNA 10TH ANNIVERSARY”, 28/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Kota Umeda, Ryota Nakatsu & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Keigo Nakamura, To-y & Yuya Koroku
2. Banana Senga & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Daiki Shimomura & Check Shimatani
3. Shunma Katsumata Vs Yuki Ueno

The DNA reunion is shaping up. Shunma Katsumata Vs Yuki Ueno is put together because those two wrestlers were a vital part of what was considered DNA’s second chapter.

The reunion also sees the return of Gran MilliMeters teaming up against their own rivals Speed Of Sounds. Gran Millimeters were Daiki Shimomura & Nobuhiro Shimatani but these days Nobuhiro is going by the name Check Shimatani.

The post-DNA generation are part of the show to test themselves against DDT’s previous developmental project. Kota Umeda, Ryota Nakatsu & Kouki Iwasaki are representing DNA while Keigo Nakamura, To-y & Yuya Koroku represent D GENERATIONS.

Suguru Miyatake will be in attendance. His three year wrestling career was plagued with injuries and he eventually retired years after it was clear he wouldn’t be able to return to the ring.

Charismania, Sasaki Is Sick Of Love And Dreams, Dance Terrorist To Debut

November 5, 2024

DDT “CHARISMANIA”, 06/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. KUBITO & Naohiro Katsumi 19th Anniversary Match: KUBITO Vs Naohiro Katsumi

6. The Greatest Wrestling Match Of CHARISMANIA: Daisuke Sasaki & Yuko Miyamoto Vs Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita

Tomorrow’s “CHARISMANIA” show has some added juice to it now that Daisuke Sasaki will be headlining a Sumo Hall show at the end of the year. Time for him to sharpen up his skills with Yuko Miyamoto, Dick Togo and Minoru Fujita.

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.

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~”, 08/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Lil’ Kraken Vs Takeru Inoue

4. SAGAT & Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi
5. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida

Does BASARA have a jacket big enough for Daisuke Sekimoto to wrestle in without his muscles ripping it apart at the seams?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2024”, 16/11/2024

1. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima Vs Haruna Neko Vs Kaya Toribami

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 “MAO TRIUMPHANT RETURN! DRAMATIC DREAM TAISEIKAN ~THE VILLAGE IS WHERE THE SCHOOL IS~ 2024”, 17/11/2024
Miyagi Osaki City Matsuyama B&G Marine Center

1. Makoto Oishi Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Toru Owashi & Antonio Honda
3. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & Ilusion Vs Akito, Takeshi Masada & Yuni
4. Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA Vs Keigo Nakamura & Yuki Ishida

6. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku
7. Special Tag Match: MAO & Yuki Ueno Vs Minoru Suzuki & Chris Brookes

More DDT appearances for Demus and Diego.

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.

Saitama Takashina Elementary School

2. Special Tag Match: Makoto Oishi & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Akito & Kaya Toribami
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno, HARASHIMA & Tetsuya Endo Vs Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura

I think the expectation is for To-y to have recovered from his stomach bug in time to be able to wrestle tomorrow.

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

1. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase Vs HARUKAZE & YuuRI

Hiroaki Moriya is coming to Ganbare☆Pro looking to “Energize” the place. He’s been in the ring with Ken Ohka before but hasn’t with Yumehito Imanari so he’s looking forward to fighting both for different reasons.

DDT “SUMIDA DRAMATIC DREAM! ~FREE SEATING PRO WRESTLING SHOW~”, 04/11/2024
Tokyo Higashin Arena (Sumida City Gymnasium)

1. Maruto Potori Foods Presents Tag Match: Keigo Nakamura & Yuki Ishida Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi

8. KO-D Openweight Title – Houset Co., Ltd Presents: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Chris Brookes

Thought we were all clear from Shinya Aoki’s threats to fight Katsuhiko Nakajima somewhere down the line? Not so fast! Aoki held a short interview with Tokyo Sports today where he said his goal is to hold onto the KO-D Openweight Title long enough that he will still be the champion when he has a grappling match in ONE FC this December. Aoki cannot believe he got a fight in ONE scheduled before he got a booking in GLEAT. He then started rambling about Nakajima and asking why he hasn’t been in the news lately?

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~”, 08/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida

Miyu Yamashita’s involvement in the DEFY weekend is resulting in some creative matchups. She was already announced as one of MAO’s opponents in the DDT Universal Title match and now we know the other opponent is Mike Bailey! Yamashita could be at a disadvantage if The Moonlight Express decided to use the numbers game against her.

This is not the full card. Both Nick Wayne and Marina Shafir have been announced for the show and do not have their matches announced yet.

6. World Omori Title: Soma Takao (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

Masahiro Takanashi is chosen to face Soma Takao for the World Omori Title. There is also going to be a Battle Royal to determine next year’s No. 1 Contender.

The full force of BURNING must meet the power of Chikara head on! No one shall be spared.

DDT/TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TRIANGLER DTD”, 10/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA

1. Special Single Match: Gringo Loco Vs Miyu Yamashita
2. Special Tag Match: MAO & Mike Bailey Vs Judas Icarus & Travis Williams
3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Yuni

Come on Tony, give Yuni a shot at the AEW International Title. Do it for the sickos.

The Moonlight Express will team up proper at the end of the DEFY weekend for a tag match against Sinner & Saint.

I don’t know what kind of person would ever think up a Miyu Yamashita Vs Gringo Loco match but that’s some good booking right there.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: X Vs X
2. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shazza McKenzie

Big children rejoice for it’s the return of Hyper Misao to save the day! No better choice for her first match back from injury than to team up with Shoko Nakajima as Kyoraku Kyomei again. Rika Tatsumi will certainly welcome her back with a big hug that will suspiciously look a lot like a strangulation. Arisu Endo will probably stand to the side and give it a thumbs up.

Zara Zakher will be on the show.

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024”, 23/11/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Akito 15th Anniversary Debut Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Akito
2. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Danshoku Dieno (c/c) Vs Yuni
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku

BURNING have found themselves back in the front of the line for a KO-D Tag Team Titles shot. This time however Tetsuya Endo is teaming with Yuya Koroku instead of Yuki Iino. Koroku has a pinfall win over Shunma Katsumata and that interested MAO enough to accept his title challenge.
