Mike Bailey has built a lot of momentum in the last few months, winning the week long DNA Grand Prix tournament and now holding the KO-D Tag Team Titles with Konosuke Takeshita. His success has been rewarded even more with a KO-D Openweight Title shot at DDT’s first Korakuen Hall show in 2017.

6. Miyu Yamashita Vs Saki Akai
7. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Yuu (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

One of the big rivalries in Tokyo Joshi Pro’s history will come back for a special match. Miyu Yamashita has never been able to beat Saki Akai one on one. Akai has shown no interest in having any future plans with Tokyo Joshi so this may be Yamashita’s last chance for now to get that win.

Hyper Misao has enlisted Rika Tatsumi and Minami Momochi to help her latest attempt to protect Tokyo Joshi from evil. It wasn’t long ago when Akane Miura was practising snake magic although she has shown no evil behaviour since returning to normal. Maho Kurone however is pretty much a zombie now. She’s always been acting weird since her debut match but yeah, carrying a severed arm to the ring while her mouth is covered in blood isn’t exactly being subtle. Momochi will be finishing up her role as Tokyo Joshi’s ring announcer at this show so what a way to go, getting involved in this creepy situation.

DDT “ROAD TO SUPER ARENA IN OYODO ~DRAMATIC DREAM TENROKU~”, 09/01/2017

1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Mike Bailey (c) Vs Masakatsu Funaki & Yukio Sakaguchi

*New Buddy Tag fail in V4. The Aldini Brothers become the 21st NWA International Lightweight Tag Team Champions!

The team of Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto, together now known as The Aldini Brothers, have brought in new gold for BASARA! They challenged Ikuto Hidaka & Hayato Jr. Fujita to come over to BASARA and put their NWA International Lightweight Tag Team Titles on the line. The champions accepted but will now going back to ZERO1 without the titles. They graciously gave the belts over to the winners and as they left, Kodaka said how much it meant to him to wrestle them for the championship. He then asked if Hidaka will enter the annual Furinkazan tournament in ZERO1. Hidaka said he would tell him tomorrow and he will wrestle again in BASARA. Tsukamoto was thrilled with his new title. It is the first championship he won since four years ago when he was a Yokohama Shopping Street Six Man Tag Team Champion. He searched the internet before the match to learn about this NWA Tag Title and thought it looked cool when he saw pictures of it.

SAGAT was put into a challenge against some All Japan wrestlers to prepare him for Jun Akiyama. However when he was overwhelmed Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Trans-Am ★ Ryuichi would come in to physically defend him. The All Japan team kept hitting SAGAT with Axe Bombers until SAGAT would block them with an Axe Bomber of his own. Hiroshi would but in and make an unwilling SAGAT attempt double team moves like the Space SAGAT Torpedo 2 (Hiroshi throws SAGAT at their opponent) and the Space SAGAT Cannon (Hiroshi Dropkicks SAGAT into their opponent) but they both failed. The latter miss cost SAGAT the match when Yuma Aoyagi pinned him with a Fisherman Suplex afterwards. Hiroshi told SAGAT to look closely at himself before he faces Akiyama. Ryuichi then Chopped him.

In a preview of the Yokohama 6-Man Tag Title match, Abdullah Kobayashi made Ryota Nakatsu submit to a Crab Hold. It was supposed to be the Let’s Combine as used by Nakatsu’s teammate Ryuichi Sekine but Kobayashi’s a bit sloppy at applying the move. Sekine wasn’t impressed and said Cavalry will be taking those belts from Kobayashi’s team on Christmas Day.

Tanomusaku Toba was put on a trial by combat by Gouma Ryu against Atsushi Maruyama with Kyohei Wada as the judge. Toba was accused of leaving a Chinese beauty shop in Osaka without paying for the service. The “trial” was set up as a 3 Way match but Ryu admitted it was more of a 2 Vs 1 contest between him and Toba against Maruyama. Ryu defended Toba by claiming he is poor and couldn’t afford to pay for the items. Maruyama played prosecutor and called referee Yuya Okada up as a witness. Okada said he borrowed money to Toba that day so he should have been able to pay. Ryu called up Ryuichi Sekine and asked him what he knew about the shop. Sekine said the shop gives massages then was embarrassed by what he just admitted. Ryu told Toba that he couldn’t defend him anymore. Toba got angry and knocked out Ryu with a Straight Right punch. He mounted Ryu and began punching him. However Wada treated this as a pin and counted to three. This somehow meant Toba was declared guilty. Ryu asked Maruyama if they could do the best pro wrestling trial in history at Korakeun Hall? Maruyama agreed and so did Wada.

The beautiful opponents for Bambi & Manami Kanda come from Ice Ribbon. Yumehito Imanari isn’t impressed even though the match was his idea. He likes his women to be bigger than Maya Yukihi & Tequila Saya so he’s rooting for Bambi & Kanda.

However DDT announced that if the champion and championship both reappear between now and this show it will be put on the line in the Battle Royal.

The dark match may stay the same even if Nobuhiro Shimatani “loses” the King Of Dark Title before the show takes place.

8. Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Shigehiro Irie

DDT has a long event of wrestling and concerts planned tomorrow. For months they have been signing musical acts to perform at this show. They will perform their sets in between the matches and some of the acts will even get involved in the matches themselves.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BATTLE MISSION 2016 CODE.5”, 12/11/2016
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Mil Clown Vs Maho Kurone
2. Miyu Yamashita Vs Nodoka-oneesan
3. Konsho-gun Full Scale Start Up! Love Kick Off!: Azusa Takigawa & Nonoko Vs Reika Saiki & Hyper Misao
4. Yuu & Shoko Nakajima Vs Akane Miura & Rika Tatsumi

Azusa Takigawa & Nonoko have formed Konsho-gun, or the Marriage Wins Army. Takigawa is campaigning against Tokyo Joshi Pro’s rule against relationships for the main roster. She wants to find a boyfriend and get married, not for love but because she thinks it will make her a stronger wrestler.

DDT “DNA 27”, 16/11/2016
Hanayashiki Park Hall

1. Guanchulo Vs Yuki Ueno
2. Average Height 163cm Minimum Load: Daiki Shimomura & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Hercules Senga & Tsutomu Oosugi
3. MAO Vs Shiori Asahi
4. Dai Suzuki Comeback: Dai Suzuki Vs Konosuke Takeshita
5. Kazusada Higuchi Vs Shunma Katsumata
6. Kouki Iwasaki & Mizuki Watase Vs Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu

There are a few things left over from the DNA Grand Prix to sort out. Ryota Nakatsu’s return had him rub most of the roster the wrong way. Both Kouki Iwasaki & Mizuki Watase want to defend DNA’s honour against him. Nakatsu has Ryuichi Sekine for back up though.

Shunma Katsumata couldn’t compete in the Grand Prix due to injury. He most of all wanted to win his group and face Kazusada Higuchi in the final. The circumstances now are different but can he finally beat his rival or will Higuchi travel to New York as the victor?

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2016”, 23/11/2016
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Mike Bailey
2. Special Single Match: Yoshihiro Takayama Vs Yukio Sakaguchi
3. Special Tag Match: Shuji Ishikawa & Tetsuya Endo Vs HARASHIMA & Konosuke Takeshita
4. DDT Extreme Title: Danshoku Dino (c) Vs Saki Akai

Three new matches give us some tantalising previews for “OSAKA OCTOPUS 2016”. HARASHIMA & Konosuke Takeshita join forces against DAMNATION, Mike Bailey goes up against the group’s leader and Yukio Sakaguchi attempts to tear down the mountain that is Yoshihiro Takayama.

DDT “OSAKA OCTOPUS 2016 ~IT’S NANIWABUSHI WRESTLING~”, 04/12/2016
Osaka Edion Arena #1

1. Yuni Debut Match: Yuni Vs X
2. Special Tag Match: Masakatsu Funaki & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Yoshihiro Takayama & Kazusada Higuchi
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Mike Bailey
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs HARASHIMA

Takeshita wants revenge on Endo for leaving him and joining DAMNATION. Bailey wants to avenge his defeat to DAMNATION from “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2016”. What I’m trying to say is the Happy Motels wrestlers don’t like DAMNATION.

DDT “SHINSU CHASHU MINA NO SHU 2016”, 03/11/2016

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi

The Mizuki Watase match originally had Keisuke Ishii and Soma Takao involved but their rivalry over the AJPW Jr. Title has moved them over to a separate match.

Nobuhiro Shimatani has been unable to beat Daiki Shimomura so far in their young careers. He has another shot here and he can get rid of the King Of Dark Title in the process.

TAVERN WRESTLING “NO ALCOHOL NO LIFE 2016”, 09/11/2016

3. Special Tag Match: Masakatsu Funaki & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Yoshihiro Takayama & Kazusada Higuchi
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs HARASHIMA

LiLiCo has chosen her target for her new alliance with Aja Kong (almost official team name: LiLiCo & Erica) to go after. Both of them still bare a grudge with Saki Akai going back to their rivalry over the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. LiLiCo point blank told Akai that she and Kong will kill her in Osaka. Akai is hoping to enter that match as the DDT Extreme Champion.

DDT “ROAD TO SUPER ARENA ~DRAMATIC DREAM PORK~”, 11/12/2016
Hakata Star Lane

Although Isami Kodaka was the fifth and final champion at the time, the belt’s return match will determine the sixth champion. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi is involved because he won Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ and has not been pinned in BASARA since then.
