2. Road To Rikidozan!: Yumehito Imanari & Fumihito Kihara Vs Crusher Takahashi & Osochin Aries

Yumehito Imanari has gotten an opportunity to train with Mitsuo Momota, the son of Rikidozan. Because of this he is eager to show off his newly inherited skill of Royal Road wrestling. When Ken Ohka told him that one of his opponents is Osochin Aries, Yumehito asked if he meant Austin Aries from TNA.

Gorikiko approached Ohka and Imanari asking to join the war between Ganbare☆Wrestling and Union. Naturally she will be pitted against Cherry. She admits Cherry would beat her in a normal wrestling match so she instead challenges her to a Judo Jacket Match. Gorikiko has trained in Judo so she will have the advantage in this situation.

Somebody named Dr. Kiriko will also be on the card.

The main event of Kota Ibushi Vs Konosuke Takeshita is the present star against the future star.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU IN HIROSHIMA ~ DRAMATIC DREAM TOUKASAN”, 01/03/2014
Hiroshima Industrial Hall West Exhibition Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – New York Rules: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Danshoku Dino

Much like the KO-D Openweight Division, there has not been a strong contender for the DDT Extreme Title lately. Danshoku Dino stepped up and challenged HARASHIMA for a title shot in his home prefecture of Hiroshima. Dino wants the match to be under New York Rules, an idea he got when he wrestled MEN’S Teioh back in 2007. Under New York Rules you must kiss your opponent while pinning him to win. HARASHIMA accepted the rules and said he will go through special training for the match. He will go into the woods to search for a hibernating bear to kiss. He will then build a snowman and use that for more intense kissing training. When he watched Dino wrestle MEN’S Teioh all those years ago, he felt a chill down his spine. But he knows he cannot back down now and will train hard to beat Dino.

package-for-amon

During the announcement of the match, a courier approached Amon Tsurumi claiming to have a package he needed to sign for. But just when Tsurumi was about to sign it, HARASHIMA noticed something was wrong and took the piece of paper from him. The paper turned out to be a contract for the HARASHIMA Vs Masa Takanashi KO-D Openweight Title match on 23rd February. According to the contract, the match would be fought under handicap rules with HARASHIMA needing to pin Takanashi for five seconds to win while Takanashi would only need to pin HARASHIMA for one second. Tsurumi caught the courier and she was revealed to be Sayaka Obihiro!

Takanashi entered the room to rescue his friend while Tsurumi yelled at him for trying to trick him into signing another contract. But Takanashi had a backup plan, he had the key for DDT’s ring truck! Tsurumi began to panic and asked if Takanashi was going to sell off the truck, the ring, the sound system or even the chairs. Takanashi said he was found something more important than any of those things, the championship belts! He was going to steal the belts and become champion without having to fight anybody. Takanashi began taunting Tsurumi until HARASHIMA simply grabbed the keys and gave them back to Daisuke Kiso, who explained they were stolen from him while he was stuck in Yokohama yesterday. Their plan foiled, Takanashi and Obihiro needed a distraction so Obihiro bit her tongue and Takanashi yelled for an ambulance as they fled.

DDT “YAROZ PART 1” Results

February 9, 2014

assholezpart1

DDT “YAROZ PART 1”, 09/02/2014
Shin-kiba 1st RING
183 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Solidly Single Match: Ryuichi Sekine defeated Daichi Kazato with the Combine (8:16).
2. White Doe & Aoki Wolves – 3 Way Embarrassment Match: Misaki Ohata defeated Antonio Honda and Seiya Morohashi when Ohata made Morohashi say “I’m embarrassed!” (8:05).
3. YaroZ Hardcore Match: Shuji Ishikawa defeated Kankuro Hoshino with the Splash Mountain onto a chair (12:01).
4. Talk To The Fist – Boxing Match: Gota Ihashi Vs Kengo Mashimo ended in a No Contest (4R).
5. Clash At Last! Sudden Realisation Of The Forbiddon: Keizo Matsuda defeated Danshoku Dino with a Tombstone Piledriver (9:36).
6. Value Of Man Is Not A Plane! BOYZ Vs YaroZ: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Shigehiro Irie defeated HARASHIMA, Makoto Oishi & Tetsuya Endo when Irie pinned Oishi with the Flying Sausage (17:29).

Turns out I was using a non-vulgar translation of the show name and this show was indeed vulgar. AssholeZ it is, then.

Tomomitsu Matsunaga and Amon Tsurumi were originally supposed to host the show but they were mysteriously absent. Taking their place were guest MCs Brother Tommy and Brother Mon. They explained this was a show for bastards, by bastards. They wanted to encourage everyone wrestling to unleash their inner bastard just for today.

The main event saw Team YaroZ facing Team BOYZ with the latter being uncomfortable with the surroundings. Makoto Oishi complained about a stinking smell coming from the audience. He also called his opponents ugly, fat and old. Shigehiro Irie was very upset at being called old. He got his revenge by pinning Oishi with the Flying Sausage.

Keizo Matsuda discovered his Danshoku side during his victory over Danshoku Dino. While at first overpowered by his opponent, Matsuda pulled down his tights to reveal he was wearing Danshoku tights underneath. He then used his newly found Danshoku ability to Lip Lock Dino and then pin him with the Tombstone. After the match Matsuda got his hands on some fans in the front row. He and Dino then did a Danshoku version of the Steiner Brothers pose on the stage. Brother Mon called it the birth of the Japanese Steiner Brothers.

The boxing match between Gota Ihashi and Kengo Mashimo was set for 45 one minute rounds with Yuzuki Aikawa providing some bouncy eye candy as the round girl. Aikawa however appeared in her regular everyday clothing because she had other things to do today. Ihashi and Mashimo had a slugfest but everybody noticed that everytime a round ended, Aikawa would remove a piece of clothing before holding the next round card. So Yukinori Matsui did everything he could to make sure the match continued even though Ihashi and Mashimo were beating the tar out of each other. At the end of the third round Aikawa promised to reveal her swimsuit if the fight made it to Round 5. Mashimo knocked out Ihashi in the 4th Round but Matsui counted as slowly as he could. Mashimo got sick of the stalling and said he was going home. With Mashimo leaving and Ihashi still unconcious, Brother Mon had no other choice but to call off the match. The arena broke out into chaos until Aikawa decided to strip down to her Stars & Stripes swimsuit much to the excitement of every man in the building.

Both Shuji Ishikawa and Kankuro Hoshino wrestled their hardcore match wearing fundoshi instead of their usual gear.

The Embarrassment Match involved Antonio Honda, Seiya Morohashi and Misaki Ohata trying to humiliate each other to win. The first person to make another wrestler yell “I’m embarrassed!” would be crowned the winner. At first they all tried to strip each other but soon Honda brought in a whip. Ohata got rid of Honda and whipped Morohashi’s bare backside enough to make him say he was embarrassed. Brother Tommy said afterwards that it was a terrible match.

A main event of burly men versus pretty boys, two tough assholes in a hardcore match and an opener mocking the relationship status of both participants. As far as I can tell this is an anti-BOYZ show.

1. Ryuichi Sekine Vs Daichi Kazato
2. Talk To The Fist – Boxing Match: Gota Ihashi Vs Kengo Mashimo

4. Value Of Man Is Not A Plane! BOYZ Vs YaroZ: Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Shigehiro Irie Vs HARASHIMA, Makoto Oishi & Tetsuya Endo

As best as I can tell, this is DDT parodying their own BOYZ spin-off brand. Tomomitsu Matsunaga will be the special ring announcer for the show.

The boxing match will be only one round but that round has a 45 minute time limit. Yuzuki Aikawa will be the ring girl.

DDT “BLUE LIGHT YOKOHAMA 2014 ~WINTER~”, 11/02/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall

The first show in the “ROAD TO RYOGOKU” tour begins in Shizuoka.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2014”, 23/02/2014
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Do Or Die!? Negligence Match: KUDO Vs Yukio Sakaguchi
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles Match: Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Aja Kong (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Toma Sakao
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles Match: Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega (c) Vs Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei
4. KO-D Openweight Title Match: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Masa Takanashi

DDT’s eternal underdog has gotten himself a KO-D Openweight Title match. Despite a poor record preventing him from earning a title shot normally, Masa Takanashi got his friend Emi Sakura to trick Amon Tsurumi into signing the contract to make the match official.

Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega are going to face a team unlike any other in wrestling today. The Brahman Brothers have terrified many wrestlers, referees and fans alike with their antics. Expect insects, slime and maybe a decapitated animal head or two.

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2014” Results

January 11, 2014

UNION “NEW YEAR UNION 2014”, 11/01/2014
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
304 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Richard Burn defeated Tomoya Kawamura by TKO with the Afterburn (1:15).
2. Idea Pocket Presents: Seiya Morohashi defeated Ryu Gouma (w/ Mitomi Masayuki) with the Crippler Crossface (1:49).
3. Kyoko Kimura defeated SAGAT with the Big Boot (9:30).
4. Shuji Ishikawa & Kaori Yoneyama defeated Menso~re Oyaji & Mio Shirai when Ishikawa pinned Shirai with the Splash Mountain (10:28).
5. World Men’s Club First Match: Hiroshi Fukuda & MEN’S Teioh defeated Isami Kodaka & Daichi Kazato when Fukuda pinned Kazato with the Perfect Plex (13:06).
6. Emergency Special Match: Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari defeated Daichi Kazato & Tomoya Kawamura when Ohka pinned Kawamura with the Spear Of Fire (2:23).
7. Union Fly To Everywhere World Title: Cherry (c) defeated Sareee with the Spring Night Love (8:55).
*V2 for Cherry.
8. Union MAX Title: Ivan Markov (c) defeated FUMA with the Neck Hanging Bomb (14:02).
*V1 for Ivan Markov.

World Men’s Club showed their strength over Union today with all of their members scoring victories over the Union roster. Ivan Markov took care of FUMA in the main event Union MAX Title match with a little help from his stable mates. Hiroshi Fukuda & MEN’S Teioh also scored a win over Isami Kodaka & Daichi Kazato.

If the World Men’s Club boasting of their superiority wasn’t bad enough, Union also now has a new invasion led by a former friend to deal with. Mid way through the show a banner with “Declaration of War” written on it was unveiled in the arena. All of a sudden Ken Ohka & Yumehito Imanari from Ganbare☆Wrestling appeared! Imanari said that Ganpuro saves wrestling from a rotten life. Naomi Susan didn’t want to deal with Ohka annoying her so she sent Daichi Kazato & Tomoya Kawamura after the invaders in an impromptu match. Unfortunately for them they had already wrestled while Ohka & Imanari were on fresh form despite wrestling in suits. The Ganpuro team won and struck the first blow in their invasion and continued fighting with their opponents until Mitomi Masayuki and SAGAT arrived. When the invaders finally left, Susan thanked the Union wrestlers for chasing them off and called for the show to continue.

Cherry said her Fly To Everywhere Title Match with Sareee was like wrestling a version of herself from 22 years ago. When asked what she was like 22 years ago, Cherry said she had a crew cut and participated in Judo. She hasn’t considered who her next challenger will be but wants to defend her championship more and more.

Shuji Ishikawa was challenged by Richard Burn to a match for the 11th February show in Yokohama. Shuji accepted and is interested in the Wrestling Vs Karate dynamic. Earlier in the show, Burn had his second match in Union. His martial arts background overwhelmed his opponent, this time the rookie Tomoya Kawamura. Burn knocked him out with the Afterburn in quick fashion.

SAGAT tried to get on Kyoko Kimura’s good side before their match by offering her bananas. Kimura didn’t even entertain the offer and kicked them away, making SAGAT angry. Kimura wound up beating SAGAT but offered him a banana after their match. SAGAT accepted it.
