BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 17: HALLOWEEN II:”, 29/10/2024
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
1. Ram Kaichow, Mr. Bueno & Mr. Malo Vs Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Chie Koishikawa
The room already gets cramped whenever Baka Gaijin + Friends books a tag team match. How do they have the room to do a 6-Man Tag? Also Mr. Bueno and Mr. Malo have been described as being complete opposites of each other. Does that make mean they will make a good team or a bad team? Ram Kaichow might need to be the anchor of the trio. CDK (or should that be ChieDK?) will have nothing to worry about since Chie Koishikawa has been a compatible teammate for both Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi in the past.

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Makoto Oishi’s Last DDT Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Makoto Oishi & Danshoku Dieno
A press conference was held today for ShunMao and the challengers to sign the KO-D Tag Team Titles match contract. Danshoku Dieno appeared alone and called Makoto Oishi to find out where he is. Oishi said he overslept and he was already in a taxi on the way over to the building. After a 10 minute wait Oishi still had not appeared so the contract signing went ahead without him. Dieno apologized dogeza style and convinced ShunMao to let him sign the contract without the need for Oishi’s signature. Shunma Katsumata called it a sign of Oishi being careless and MAO said when the match happens he will deliver the final blow to Oishi. When it was time for the group photo, Oishi finally arrived and entered the room intending to ambush the champions. But MAO noticed him coming and kicked him in the groin. Oishi admitted he was going to attack MAO to give his team the advantage but he really did oversleep and arrived to the conference late. He explained he went to be late last night, woke up this morning to do his laundry, went back to bed until almost noon. Oishi apologised by doing a full vertical headstand that he calls the ultimate dogeza. He then talked about the title match but mistakingly said it was happened on 3rd November, not 3rd October. MAO scolded him for getting the date wrong and called it was a disgrace.
Oishi’s last day in DDT has gotten even busier. He helped train Kaisei Takechi for his wrestling matches and Takechi wants to show his appreciation for it by teaming with him before he goes. Oishi already has a KO-D Tag Titles match lined up but ShunMao gave their blessing for him to do the Takechi match too. It sounds like the Takechi match will happen before the title match on the day.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN FUKUOKA”, 13/10/2024
Acros Fukuoka
1. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Azul Dragon (c) Vs Toru Owashi Vs Danshoku Dieno
2. Special Tag Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Kota Umeda & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs To-y
After a whole bunch of failed cash in attempts, To-y lost his chance at fighting Yuki Iino for the DDT Universal Title when the Right To Challenge Shield was taken away from him. However To-y didn’t let that stop him from still trying to get Iino’s attention. No matter how many times Iino took him down with the Spear, To-y refused to give up. Iino now sees how much heart To-y is showing him so he agreed to finally give him his title shot.
I found out where Azul Dragon defended the O-40 Title. He held an event back in June called Karaokekan Pro Wrestling and retained the title in a 3 Way Match with a bunch of silly rules attached to it.

5. Moeka Haruhi & HARUKAZE Vs Makoto & SAKI
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Yuna Manase & YuuRI
The three singles matches on the show are put together to see if the new wrestlers can show what the future of Ganbare☆Pro will be like. It’s a big spot for the likes of Munetatsu Nakamura, Daisuke®️, Shota Kawakami and maybe even Yuki Kanzaki. But if Keisuke Ishii and Ken Ohka win their matches in dominant ways that too could show GanPro’s future is not going to change much.
DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024”, 20/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA
In the past there have been three singles matches Shinya Aoki and HARASHIMA had against each other. Aoki has a 2-1 record against HARASHIMA but still considers his opponent to be the undisputed ace of DDT. He is looking forward to finding out if he can make it three wins out of four or if HARASHIMA will even the score and win the KO-D Openweight Title in the process.
The new DDT Extreme Champion wasted no time in choosing his first challenger. Akito has always admired Dieno for being a symbol of DDT’s creativity. Even when Akito feuded with Pheromones he hated seeing Dieno play in a supporting role rather than the group leader. Akito played a part in taking away Pheromones from Dieno so he wants to flip roles and give Dieno a chance to take his beloved Extreme Title away from him.
Kota Ibushi will be on the show.

The entries from the 2023 Class are HIMAWARI, last year’s winner Wakana Uehara, Toga, Shino Suzuki and Haru Kazashiro. The entries from the 2024 Class are Chika Nanase, Kira Summer and Uta Takami. Unfortunately Runa Okubo from the 2023 Class is currently out of action and will not be entering the tournament.

4. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Makoto Oishi’s Last DDT Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Makoto Oishi & Danshoku Dieno
On the day that Makoto Oishi’s contract ends with DDT he gets to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles with Danshoku Dieno. The two of them have never held the titles together and don’t even know what will happen next if they beat ShunMao. It won’t be the last time we will ever see Oishi in DDT but whenever he does show up again it will be as a freelancer. The match means a lot to MAO & Shunma Katsumata too because Oishi has been a mentor to them for their entire careers.
Ilusion has gotten SCHADENFREUDE International a shot at the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles but he isn’t allowed to be on the challenger team. DAMNATION T.A don’t want to defend the titles against him but have no problem putting the belts on the line against the rest of SCHADENFREUDE.
Out of all the possible DDT Universal Title challengers stepping forward, To-y is one of the more unlikely to beat Yuki Iino. But he is looking for ways to get a title shot. He couldn’t go through with cashing in his Right To Challenge Shield because Iino physically stopped him at every opportunity. Now To-y no longer has the Shield but is taking the chance of facing Iino directly in a tag match. This is all if Iino is still the champion after his defence with Yukio Naya of course.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’24”, 06/10/2024

7. Queen Of Asia Title & VPW Women’s Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c/c) Vs Xia Zhao
8. Miu Watanabe & Miyu Yamashita Vs Meiko Satomura & Shoko Nakajima
When news came out about Meiko Satomura’s plan to retire from pro wrestling next year, Miyu Yamashita immediately went to Tetsuya Koda asking him to bring Satomura back to Tokyo Joshi Pro for one more match. Yamashita never got along with Satomura in their interactions together back in 2017 because Satomura wasn’t impressed with her as a wrestler. So now here we are seven years later and this might be Yamashita’s final chance to measure herself up against the legend. Miu Watanabe and Shoko Nakajima are also getting in on the action to get their one and only match with Satomura.
Xia Zhao has a pinfall victory over Yuki Kamifuku so she next wants to take the Asian Double Crown from her. Yuki Kamifuku is willing to put both the Queen Of Asia Title & VPW Women’s Title because gambling big in this situation works out for her no matter the result. She either rips off the bandage by losing both belts at the same time or looks cool for defending two championships at once.
Both Ryo Mizunami and Arisu Endo are coming off of title losses at “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”. Where they go from here might depend on the result of this match.
The idea of putting Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi together as a team sounds unhinged. Yuna Manase can deal with it but HIMAWARI might find herself in trouble should she end up in a 2-on-1 situation.
It will be up to Shino Suzuki to guide Andreza Giant Panda safely down to the ring. Mizuki is going to have so much fun trying to Double Stomp him that Mahiro Kiryu will have to apologise on her behalf!

1. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi
The unexpected next challenger for the Union MAX Title is Masahiro Takanashi! He held the title once before during 2019 and 2020. His final successful defence was even against the current champion Minoru Fujita. That result is something Fujita wants to avenge so he is ready to face Takanashi in a rematch over four years in the making.

4. Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo defeated To-y with the Burning Star Press (14:18).
5. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami, KANON & MJ Paul defeated HARASHIMA, Soma Takao, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi when Kawakami pinned Sumi with the Thunder Fire Power Bomb (9:39).

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada (c) when MAO submitted Masada with the Dick Killer (21:36).
*SCHADENFREUDE International fails in V1. ShunMao becomes the 84th KO-D Tag Team Champions!
ShunMao have won the KO-D Tag Team Titles they had to give up almost a year and a half ago! The match was supposed to be held under regular tag rules but chaos broke out immediately when the two teams tried attacking each other with the title belts. Right after that a brawl broke out with everybody from both SCHADENFREUDE International and The 37KAMIINA. Things calmed down only to get chaotic again after Yukinori Matsui suffered from a ref bump. ShunMao could have gotten the win earlier when they gave Takeshi Masada the Our Mad Max but the replacement ref Daisuke Kiso was then knocked out by Chris Brookes. With no refs around at all, more weapons were brought into the match like staplers and plastic boxes. Matsui got his senses back but the title belts were still kept around to be used as weapons. Masada used one of the belts to shield himself from Shunma Katsumata’s Totonou Splash. He then hit MAO with the belt but MAO countered his finisher into the Michinoku Driver II onto the same belt. MAO then put Masada in the Just Face Lock and morphed it into the Dick Killer variation to make him tap out.
MAO told everyone after the match that he still has a lot of ideas that he’s been saving up for this new title run and he wants to do them all even if it means he’ll get scolded a lot. He gave credit to Masada and admitted he underestimated him. He has become a great SCHADENFREUDE-like wrestler and deserves to be considered one of ShunMao’s rivals along with CDK. He also suggested the next time these four wrestlers face each other it should be a match with all of the ring ropes taken down! Hisaya Imabayashi then informed ShunMao they will have a title defence on 3rd October and asked if they have any suggestions for challengers. They remembered Makoto Oishi’s final day of his DDT contract is on that date so they want to defend the titles against him. Oishi walked out with Danshoku Dieno and said he wants ShunMao to be his final opponents as a DDT wrestler. He also wants to win the tag titles with Dieno because they never held those belts together before. MAO called Oishi his master and said it is an apprentice’s job to make things easier for their master. Without Oishi, ShunMao would have never become champions so they agreed to face Oishi & Dieno on 3rd October. Backstage MAO warned that it is also an apprentice’s job to deliver the final blow on their master.
Oishi’s last DDT singles match with Yuki Ueno took place before the main event. Dieno was in his corner cheering him on particularly when Ueno tried to beat Oishi with ground work. Oishi got a hold of Ueno by the legs and put him in the Fujiyama Knee Lock but Ueno countered it into a Sleeper Hold. Ueno used the hold for another counter and switched it into the WR to get the three count. Oishi praised Ueno backstage and called him the face of DDT. The match reminded Oishi he’s been in an amazing place like DDT for the last 13 years. Dieno then told Oishi there is something they haven’t done together yet, which led to the challenge at the end of the show.
Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami announced the time has come for him to change his focus to a certain company with the letter “G” in its name so FIRE DAMNATION are ceasing activities as of today. But Kawakami promises it will come back whenever he returns to DDT.
At the recent No Spoiler Beer Garden show Kazuki Hirata reverted by to his rookie form. He forgot to revert back because he appeared for his match in his old gear using his old entrance music. Akito was confused but went along with it for five minutes. He then got on the microphone and said it was a nice reminder of their earlier days of wrestling each other but he would like to fight the current day Hirata now. Hirata felt unsure a pair of Hirata GO! glasses were brought into the ring. Hirata and Akito put them on, danced while wrestling and then Hirata shockingly pinned Akito with the Miracle One Shot Cradle to win the match and take the Right To Challenge Shield! Hirata wasn’t happy though and he held the Shield with digust. He is still thinking like a rookie and is more concerned about doing his behind the scenes chores rather than worry about winning a championship.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SAPPORO – DAY 1”, 15/09/2024
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
1. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs Makoro Oishi
2. Kazuki Hirata Vs Kazuma Sumi

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SAPPORO – DAY 2”, 16/09/2024
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
1. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON Vs Yuki Ishida & Ilusion
2. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Makoto Oishi Vs Tomoya, Akito & Kazuki Hirata
3. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & Noriyuki Yoshida Vs Yuki Ueno & Keigo Nakamura

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 20/09/2024
Shinjuku FACE
1. Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno & Keigo Nakamura
2. Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuki Ishida
3. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami, KANON & MJ Paul Vs HARASHIMA, Soma Takao, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special Single Match: Akito Vs Kazuki Hirata
5. Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo Vs To-y
6. Special Single Match: Yuki Iino Vs Makoto Oishi
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada (c) Vs MAO & Shunma Katsumata
Poor Takeshi Masada still isn’t getting much respect despite being one half of the KO-D Tag Team Champions. At the contract signing for this title match ShunMao called CDK their rivals instead of SCHADENFREUDE International and Chris Brookes even agreed with that notion. On the bright side Brookes is advising Masada to wrestle the match in their own unique way. That matters to his development just as much as winning or losing.
Makoto Oishi’s farewell tour brings him over to Yuki Ueno for what could be their last singles match together.
If To-y is still holding his Right To Challenge Shield by the time this show happens then Tetsuya Endo has a big chance to win it and set up another shot at Aoki for the KO-D Title. Akito could also possibly risk his Shield in a match against Kazuki Hirata. Meanwhile Masahiro Takanashi is laying low and hiding away in multi-man tag matches where the risk of directly losing a fall is much much lower.
Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami is not running away from DDT after losing to Naya. He lost clean to Naya when they finally faced each other in a singles match but they will meet again in an 8-Man Tag Match here.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”, 22/09/2024

5. Aja Kong, Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku Vs Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Shino Suzuki

6. Xia Zhao & Mizuki Vs Yuki Kamifuku & VENY
7. Emi Sakura Vs Shoko Nakajima
8. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Suzume & Arisu Endo (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Ryo Mizunami
There was a contract signing held today for Yuki Arai and Moka Miyamoto to promote the International Princess Title match. Miyamoto spoke about always valuing the spirit of harmony and how she incorporates Japanese elements into her wrestling. That is how she created the Korokan move during her first attempt to win the IP Title in 2022. So her goal if she becomes the champion is to spread those feelings across the world. Arai would like to see Miyamoto win the title if the champion was somebody else but she will defend it to the death against her. She also wants to start defending the title overseas, especially if it helps SKE48 with their efforts to grow internationally. If Arai beats Miyamoto then she will hold the record for most IP Title defences with 5 wins. She wants to be proud of her title reign and hopes this match will be memorable for reasons more than just her breaking the record.
BASARA “BASARA 257 ~HIEN~”, 24/09/2024

4. Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Minoru Fujita Vs Guts Ishijima, Hideyoshi Kamitani & Kuma Arashi
5. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine
The UWA World Tag Team Titles have been used mainly in Big Japan for the past few years and belonged to Michinoku Pro before that. Thanks to Aijin Tag winning the belts this week the championship is now being defended over to BASARA. It didn’t take long for them to find challengers because Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine quickly decided they wanted a title shot after they saw Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino’s victory.
The “HIEN” branding is bringing in more fresh faces to BASARA. Ganbare☆Pro are sending over Yumehito Imanari & Mizuki Watase as a tag team. There is also a mixture of outside talent being put together as Guts Ishijima, Hideyoshi Kamitani & Kuma Arashi take on the BASARA home team. There’s even a tag match with Speed Of Sounds on opposite sides to freshen up the undercard.
DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 ~ 3 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 29/09/2024

7. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs Yukio Naya
DDT got Kaisei Takeshi to sell out a show so a full Korakuen Hall has to watch Danshoku Dieno Vs Makoto Oishi. I kind of have to respect the carniness of it all.

Chiba Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall
1. Runa Okubo Vs Haru Kazashiro
2. Yoshiko Hasegawa, Kaya Toribami & HIMAWARI Vs Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Uta Takami
3. Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Wakana Uehara & Toga

8. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Suzume & Arisu Endo (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Ryo Mizunami
The next International Princess Title defence is a rematch three years in the making. Yuki Arai’s reign with the title has inspired Moka Miyamoto to challenge her and be next in line to carry the championship. They’ve been tag partners before but as opponents Arai has been on the winning side against Miyamoto in almost all of their matches together.
The full card for “WRESTLE PRINCESS V” is here. Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Shino Suzuku are being gathered together to fight the trio of monsters (if you think Pom Harajuku counts as a monster). The happy couple Ram Kaichow and Raku must now face each other one on one. At least Kaichow is happy she now gets to have Raku all to herself in the ring. Kakeru Sekiguchi returns to Tokyo Joshi Pro for her second appearance in the promotion. Also Runa Okubo and Haru Kazashiro face each other in a singles match for the first time in almost a year.
DDT “REMBRANDT LARIAT SERIES 2024 COMEBACK ~BATTLE OF THE CORAL~”, 23/09/2024
Rembrandt Hotel Tokyo Machida Coral Room
1. To-y & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuni & Yuki Ishida
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Chris Brookes, Keigo Nakamura & Ilusion
3. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Jun Akiyama, Akito & Yukio Naya
4. Special Single Match: Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & MAO Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
6. Special Single Match: Shunma Katsumata Vs Makoto Oishi
A preview for the next DDT Universal Title match can be seen in Match #3.
DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 ~ 3 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 29/09/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs Yukio Naya
2. DDT Extreme Title IPPON Lighttube Tag Team Death Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) & Kazuma Sumi Vs Akito & Yuni
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Kaisei Takeshi Vs Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Masahiro Takanashi
It’s the return of a classic match stipulation. Shunma Katsumata is quite into death matches so Akito decided to bring back the IPPON Lighttube Death Match for him. However this time it is going to be done as a tag team match with Kazuma Sumi as Katsumata’s partner and Yuni as Akito’s teammate. There will be only one lighttube and whoever breaks it will lose. Since the DDT Extreme Title is on the line that means it is a successful defence if Katsumata’s team wins. But if Akito’s team wins then Akito will become the new champion. The stipulation works that way even if the result comes down to Sumi and/or Yuni being involved in the finish.
Yuki Iino is the new Universal Champion after he successfully cashed in his title shot on MAO yesterday. He very quickly set up a defence against Yukio Naya in order to prove who is the best heavyweight in DDT. Their singles match last month ended in a double knockout draw.

DDT “MEET & GREET & FIGHT SEPTEMBER”, 04/09/2024
Shinjuku FACE
308 Fans
1. Keigo Nakamura & Yuya Koroku defeated To-y & Kazuma Sumi when Koroku pinned Sumi with a Moonsault Press (7:51).
2. Special Single Match: Yuki Iino defeated Kazuki Hirata by Referee Stoppage with a Bearhug (6:53).
3. 3 Way Match: Takeshi Masada defeated Yuni and Ilusion when Masada pinned Ilusion with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (9:29).
4. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki defeated Makoto Oishi with a Crucifix Pin (7:38).
The second “MEET & GREET & FIGHT” show was built around NωA reuniting for one night only to perform all of their songs. Then in the main event Makoto Oishi took on Shinya Aoki as one of his last big singles matches in DDT before he goes freelance next month. Oishi took the match so seriously he entered wearing plain trunks with his knees taped up and wrestled barefoot. Tetsuya Endo watched the match nearby but kept his distance the entire time. Oishi and Aoki spent most of the match grappling and targeting each other’s legs with submission holds. Aoki ended up countering the Jikiden Tornado Clutch into a Crucifix Pin to win with a three count. Aoki told Oishi after the match he loves him as much as he loves DDT. He encouraged Oishi as well as future opponents to bring all of their regrets and hardships into the ring and he will take them on with all of his might. Backstage Oishi said he wants to rise up to Aoki’s level so they can have another rematch some day. He will be taking on Endo next in two weeks time and hopes Endo got something out of watching today’s match, even if it’s just a little bit.
Even though Takeshi Masada and Ilusion are not part of the same unit, that didn’t stop them from fighting each other in the 3 Way Match with Yuni. There was still moments when they worked together against Yuni and even brought in Chris Brookes to triple team the poor kid. Miscommunication caused the teamwork to break down and turn the 3 Way back into every man for himself. Masada ended up getting the better of Ilusion and even pinned him with his finisher to win the match.
Kazuki Hirata had a request for the fans during his match with Yuki Iino. He asked them not to shout “Yeah!” when Iino does the Burning Elbow but instead sing it whenever Hirata tried the move. Iino was left confused whenever his “I am BURNING!” catchphrases got no reaction and got even more confused when Hirata got the “Yeah!” responses for his moves. Hirata annoyed him even more by inviting Yuki Ishida, HARASHIMA and Hisaya Imabayashi to all shout “BURNING!” and get the fans to shout “Yeah!” in response to them while still ignoring Iino. The breaking point came when the biggest “Yeah!” was made for Hirata doing the Burning Elbow. Iino lost his temper, smashed Hirata with a Lariat and squeezed him in a Bearhug until the referee stopped the match for Hirata’s safety. Iino wouldn’t let go of the hold so Imabayashi urged the fans to start chanting “Yeah!” at him again. They did so and Iino was so happy he kept chanting “BURNING!” over and over just so he could continue getting the “Yeah!” cheers he missed so much.
Everyone in the opening match spent part of the bout chasing each other around ringside with plastic bats and Pico Pico hammers.
The show began with the contract signing between Aoki and Endo for this Sunday’s KO-D Openweight Title match in Nagoya. Endo admitted he was angry from hearing Aoki’s recent comments about him but then realised the fact he feels this way means he is still alive. Endo also said out loud the biggest accomplishment in his career he now needs to achieve is get revenge on Katsuhiko Nakajima for what he did to him two years ago. But he also has to fight someone like Aoki more. He can pour all of his anger and frustration into fighting Aoki and put his life on the line in this match. Aoki is encouraging Endo to bring all of his emotions into this match so he can crush them. He also believes there is no longer a need to talk about Nakajima because this match is now about Endo overcoming his obstacles and Aoki fighting against him in their own battle.
NωA’s musical performances happened at the start and end of the show. When they finished their final song for the last time, Oishi joked that MAO & Shunma Katsumata really became the best wrestlers thanks to him putting them through this stupid idea.

The members of NωA have promised to perform all of their songs during the show for their final live perfomance together.

DDT’s crew are going to cause some chaos over in To-y’s neck of the woods. He is still serving as an unofficial ambassador for Naraha Town in order to pay off the trillion yen debt he owes to the area. At least the rest of The 37KAMIINA are helping him out along with Ishida for a big Falls Count Anywhere match.

Tsukina Umino is from Ice Ribbon. She recently fought and lost to YuuRI in a match for the ICExInfinity Title. One of her teammates is London Machine, a masked gimmick that has mostly appeared in ChocoPro. I think in one of his first appearances it was Seiya Morohashi under the mask but I don’t know if it’s been him every time.
