DDT “BEER GARDEN WRESTLING – DDT DAY”, 27/07/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
616 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

2. Akito defeated Makoto Oishi by Referee Stoppage with the Wedding Clutch (7:52).
3. Beer Garden Specialty – Drunkers High: Saki Akai & Shunma Katsumata Vs Masa Takanashi & DJ Nira ended in a No Contest (12:34).
4. Michael Nakazawa, MIKAMI & Tomomitsu Matsunaga defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Nakazawa submitted Hirata with the HVS (8:49).
5. Enter Sandman Falls Count Anywhere 3 Way Match: Super Sasadango Machine defeated Danshoku Dino and Antonio Honda when Machine pinned Dino with the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock (12:52).
6. New Year’s Eve Revenge!?: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Tetsuya Endo with a High Angle German Suplex (15:58).
7. Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki defeated HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano when Sasaki pinned Urano after the Freedom Call (18:34).

Kenny Omega was on the winning side of the main event with Daisuke Sasaki. Omega told HARASHIMA that it was a good warm up for Sumo Hall but noted the absence of Isami Kodama. He then told the crowd that his first appearance for DDT was during Beer Garden week and some of his favourite memories are from the annual event.

DDT’s two new generation stars Konosuke Takeshita and Tetsuya Endo got to have their rematch from “NEVER MIND 2013” last December. The two Happy Motel members went full blast but like last time, Takeshita wound up on top. Takeshita was happy to show everyone how much he and Endo have grown since then. Endo thinks he has grown stronger and has more stamina. He is still young and will evolve more and more in the ring while having fun too.

If for some reason anybody in the audience was still feeling nostalgic for ECW, they got their fill with the Enter Sandman Falls Count Anywhere match. Danshoku Dino, Super Sasadango Machine and Antonio Honda all did The Sandman entrance and attacked each other with Singapore Canes and cans of beer. Sasadango eventually pinned Dino with the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock.

Michael Nakazawa’s hybrid training with Minoru Suzuki is beginning to pay off. He now has a new finishing move called the HVS, the Hybrid Venom Arm Sleeper. It’s a Sleeper Hold that is applied while Nakazawa smothers his opponent with his loose tights.

The rules of the Drunkers High Match was a wrestler had to drink a cup of sake everytime a pin attempt failed or a submission hold reached a rope break. Masa Takanashi and DJ Nira were already a little tipsy before the match even began. They and their opponents Shunma Katsumata & Saki Akai would go on to get hammered, toasting each other after every pin attempt and filling their cups over and over. Referee Daisuke Kiso even joined in and was accidentally knocked down by a Diving Cross Body from Akai who was too drunk to aim properly. Kiso kept getting attacked by everyone trying to stop the pinfalls and he demanded the match end as a No Contest. Akai gave him a Big Boot and was then joined by in the ring by KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi for more rounds of sake.

The show ended with Kazuki Hirata dancing alone in the ring.

New information about the DDT Dramatic General Election was revealed at the start of the show. There will be 48 wrestlers involved but they will all be competing as part of their unit. The units announced so far are:

Smile Squash (HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano & Akito)
Shuten-dōji (KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masa Takanashi)
Team Dream Futures (Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao)
Golden Storm Riders (Kota Ibushi, Kenny Omega & Daisuke Sasaki)
Happy Motel (Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo)
T2Hide (Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata)
Otoko-Kata-Shinki (Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata)

Sanshiro Takagi wanted to name his team T2P because his and Toru Owashi’s first name begin with T and Kazuki Hirata begins with P. Hirata said that wasn’t true so Owashi tried to rename him Pira Hirata. Takagi eventually decided on naming his team T2Hide and then demanded they wrestle in a hexagonal shaped ring. Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga asked MIKAMI to join their unit but he rejected them and said he’d rather team with Gorgeous Matsuno because of the two of them go back a long way to DDT’s early days.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Danshoku Dino Vs Shunma Katsumata
2. 3 Way Match: HARASHIMA Vs Yasu Urano Vs Akito

My favourite time of the year on the DDT calender is Beer Garden week. This is where DDT’s roster are at their most creative because they get to make the matches. So far we have ghost stories, a 5 Way Ladder match, some boxing, the return of Ultimate Superstars Action and a Smile Squash Triple Threat to look forward to. Unfortunately there is no more Lariat Pro Wrestling but in it’s place we get Knee Pro Wrestling. So expect the Boma Ye and Busaiku Knee Kick to be used a lot. There are two shows that have yet to have any matches booked for it. They are the first and final days of the series.


GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 4” Results

July 3, 2014

ohka-gentaro

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “~CHAPTER 2 2ND SEASON~ VOL. 4”, 03/07/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
250 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Last Of Megane!! Glasses Carve The Soul: Fumihito Kihara defeated Megane with a Kiwi Roll (6:53).
2. No Offline Broadcast Special Streaming Double Hell Tag Team Match: Tanomusaku Toba & Aoi Ishibashi defeated Shibata & Manami Kanda when Ishibashi pinned Kanda with the Amiuchi Atomic Bomb (9:27).
3. Special Single Match: Tiger Bed Scene defeated Bank Robbery Man with the Besshinoku Driver (8:17).
4. Power Of Dreams Take Off!: Mitomi Masayuki & Tomoya Kawamura defeated Yumehito Imanari & Chikara by Disqualification when Imanari attacked the referee (10:04).
5. Special Single Match: Ken Ohka Vs GENTARO ended in a Double KO (18:48).
6. Special Tag Team Match: Osamu Namiguchi & Shota defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa & Black Tiger V when Shota pinned Tiger with the Frog Splash (14:36).

Shota scored a big victory in the main event by pinning a Black Tiger. After the match Shota said when he joined Ganbare☆Wrestling a year ago he never thought he would be main eventing Shin-Kiba 1st RING. Now he thinks Ganpuro can become major league and his proof is being able to buy a house and car with the money he’s earned from wrestling in the company. He has grown and he knows Ganpuro can grow too. Osamu Namiguchi cut in to remind Shota that he hates Ganpuro but he still agrees to wrestle here so he deserves some credit.

Ken Ohka and GENTARO brought each other to the limit in the semi-main event. Ohka came out to “Car Wars” by Tom Scott which was used by Dynamite Kid when he wrestled in Japan. Both men fought their hearts out as GENTARO countered the Spear Of Fire with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster. Ohka found his fighting spirit and got into a Lariat Battle that ended in another Brainbuster. Both men were out flat as the ref began the 10 count. GENTARO was close to getting back to his feet but it was too late, the ref counted both men out and the match ended in a Double Knockout. GENTARO thought he should have won and he asked the audience if they thought it was a draw. Ohka claimed he took a big step forward and GENTARO agreed with him, saying he has grown since they first met 12 years ago. He also told him to continue working hard and they shook hands. GENTARO said he really liked wrestling in Ganpuro and also the enthusiasm Ohka brings to the company. He offered to become a counselor for Ganpuro so he could help out when needed.

The first match for Power Of Dreams did not work out as planned. Tempers flared as Yumehito Imanari was pitted against his enemies from Union: Mitomi Masayuki & Tomoya Kawamura. Things got out of control when the Union team double teamed Chikara and yelled out “This is the end of Ganbare☆Wrestling!” Imanari came to the rescue with a chair and went crazy by throwing non-stop punches at Masayuki. The referee tried to stop him but was knocked down, forcing the match to end by disqualification. Imanari yelled over and over that he wanted to win. Chikara told him he also wants to win and they agreed to get ready for their next match together.

Bank Robbery Man turned out to be Atsushi Maruyama. I should have saw that coming. It is another in his growing line of schemes to rejoin the Ganpuro roster after last year declaring he would leave the company forever. His excuse this time was he wasted his money on lottery tickets over the last four years so he could afford a desk he wanted since elementary school. When that didn’t work he became Bank Robbery Man. After he was unmasked by Tiger Bed Scene, Maruyama once again apologised and promised that he would not return.

After spending so much of his matches trying to film them with his camera, Shibata has come to the conclusion that he could get even better angles if he was a referee instead. Ken Ohka decided Shibata will be the referee and cameraman for the Public Recording Match between Aoi Ishibashi and Manami Kanda on 23rd July.
