DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN IZUKOGEN GRANILLUMI” Results

September 2, 2023

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN IZUKOGEN GRANILLUMI”, 02/09/2023
Shizuoka Izu Granpal Park
200 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Falls Count Anywhere 4 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Saki Akai defeated Yuki Ueno, Toy Kojima & Kazuki Hirata (w/ Shunma Katsumata), Sanshiro Takagi, Shinya Aoki & Takeshi Masada and Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Pretty” Kamifuku when Brookes pinned Hirata with the Praying Mantis Bomb through the Table (45:57).

DDT’s return to the Izu Granpal Park took place in the final hours of daylight so everyone could get to wrestle around the lighting displays. There was a cart track nearby that the wrestlers drove around in, running over opponents who got in the way. Kazuki Hirata eventually appeared covered in lights, creating a wonderful glow when Chris Brookes put him through a table for the finish.

Eruption Wins AJPW Trios Titles, Scramble Bunkhouse Explosion Death Match, Endo’s Return From Injury, Hiromu Coming To DDT

August 30, 2023

Over the weekend Eruption went to an All Japan show at Nagoya to take part in a double championship match. They put the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line against ATM, Takao Omori & Black Menso-re, the defending AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Team Titles. Eruption won the match to successfully defend their own belts while also becoming the new AJPW 6-Man Tag Champions! Yukio Sakaguchi said the goal was to just defend their own championship. Winning the AJPW titles is just a bonus to him. The result made Saki Akai the first woman in history to win an AJPW championship!

ATM & Black Menso-re challenged Eruption to rematch for both sets of titles on 3rd September. They also said DASH Chisako is going to be the third member of their team. Akai & Hideki Okatani approved of the idea because they both want to wrestle Chisako again. Eruption accepted the challenge and also plan to have their next defence after that take place back in DDT on 9th September.

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN IZUKOGEN GRANILLUMI”, 02/09/2023
Shizuoka Izu Granpal Park

1. Falls Count Anywhere 4 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Saki Akai Vs Yuki Ueno, Toy Kojima & Kazuki Hirata (w/ Shunma Katsumata) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Shinya Aoki & Takeshi Masada Vs Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Pretty” Kamifuku

A few changes to the Falls Count Anywhere match due to MAO’s absence. Kazuki Hirata is now teaming with the rest of The 37KAMIINA.

DDT “DDT YOKOHAMA UNLIMITED EX”, 03/09/2023
Kanagawa Yokohama Skill Culture Center

1. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito & Yukio Naya

6. Yuki Ueno Birthday Commemorative Match ~ Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Toy Kojima
7. Special Single Match: Yuji Hino Vs KANON

This will be the last warm up match for Brookes and Shigehiro Irie before “DDT BIG BANG 2023”.

Naruki Doi is still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion as far as I know so his upcoming singles match with Hirata is still on track to be a double title bout. That may change when they cross paths here.

Eruption will be missing the show because they are now booked for an All Japan event in Nagaoka on the same day. Eruption will be defending the AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Titles along with the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles on that show.

9. First Time In History! Time Difference Scramble Bunkhouse Current Blast 6-Man Tag Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Yoshi Tatsu & Toy Kojima Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada

The rules have been decided for the main event. It will be a Scramble Bunkhouse Explosion Death Match with wrestlers joining in one after the other. The match will begin with Atsushi Onita against Jun Akiyama with all of the explosive weaponry available for them to use on each other. Akiyama suggested the two of them start and Onita agreed when the weapons were allowed. Then after three minutes the other four wrestlers will enter the match to gradually turn it into a 6-Man Tag Team brawl.

DDT are expecting MAO to be recovered in time to take part in this show.

Some of the lower matches have been changed around to deal with the additional injuries that have taken place over the last week.

Next up on Saki Akai’s retirement bucket list is her getting to team up with Minoru Suzuki!

Nagoya is an area that means a lot to Irie. It is also the hometown of Shinya Ishida. So DDT are putting the two of them with Kazusada Higuchi in one of the main matches for DDT’s next visit there.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2023”, 12/11/2023
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Saki Akai Retirement Match: Saki Akai Vs X

Hiromu Takahashi will be on the show. He wants to choose his opponent so does he have somebody already in mind? Really interesting to see how open New Japan has become towards sending their wrestlers to other companies in Japan lately. It’s one thing to work with all of the different international promotions around the world to spread their brand. Doing it within the Japanese scene as well is something they haven’t been doing for years until just recently.

Yuki Ueno has a fever and will miss tomorrow’s show. Yuya Koroku moves out of the Handicap Match to take Ueno’s place in Match #5.

The match between Makoto Oishi and KANON will now be a Just No Fall No Rope Match. There will be no ropes attached to the ring and the match cannot be won by pinfall. Instead either submissions, knockouts or countouts can end the match.

7. Beer Garden Specialty Customer Lottery 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Jun Akiyama, Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno, Yukio Naya and Takeshi Masada

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match gets a warm up bout when one third of the current champions Hideki Okatani faces Yuko Miyamoto.

A tag match built around the different martial arts of each competitor is being put together. Shinya Aoki represents Judo, Yuki Ishida represents (Sumo), Thanomsak Toba represents Kickboxing and Rukiya represents Grappiling.

The Rock ‘n’ Roll Death Match returns to the Beer Garden! When music plays you must dance no matter what! Don’t know why they have faith in Antonio Honda showing up though. He often misses these things and need to be replaced by someone else. What’s A.YAZAWA up to?

BASARA “BASARA 227 ~UTAGE~”, 29/08/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. SAGAT Vs Yasu Urano

The mystery wrestler teaming with Pheromones is Yuki Kamifuku… or as she’s being called here, Yuki “Pretty” Kamifuku! She thought her nickname was going to be “Cool” or “Sexy” but understands that it goes without saying she is already those things.

DDT “DDT YOKOHAMA UNLIMITED EX”, 03/09/2023
Kanagawa Yokohama Skill Culture Center

1. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Kazusada Higuchi Vs Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao
2. Yuki Ueno Birthday Commemorative Match ~ Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Toy Kojima
3. Special Single Match: Yuji Hino Vs KANON

KANON might need ropes and pinfalls in order to fight Yuji Hino.

Yuki Ueno turns 28 next month and will fight Toy Kojima to celebrate it.

Naruki Doi will be on the show. Will he still have the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title with him?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT ’23 ~FIRST ATTACK ON HIROSHIMA~”, 09/09/2023
Hiroshima Industrial Hall West Exhibition Hall 2nd Exhibition Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles 1st Qualifier ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao Vs Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku

A six team mini-tournament will determine who will become the next Princess Tag Team Champions. The winners of two 3 Way Tag Matches will face off at “WRESTLE PRINCESS IV” for the vacant titles. In the first 3 Way Tag Match Kyoraku Kyomei, Free WiFi and the pairing of Raku & Pom Harajuku will all fight each other.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT ’23 ~YUKI ARAI LOCAL TRIUMPH~”, 10/09/2023
Kyoto KBS Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles 2nd Qualifier ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo

The second 3 Way Tag Match takes place the next day. Here it will be Daydream against Toyo Mates against Daisy Monkey.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS IV”, 09/10/2023
Tokyo Tama Mirai Messe

1. Sakisama, Mei Saint-Michel, Martha & Yukio Saint Laurent Vs X, X, X & X
2. Special Single Match: Nyla Rose Vs Maki Itoh
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Winners Of 09/09 Match Vs Winners Of 09/10 Match
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

Daydream are the only previous champion team involved in the tournament so the final will feature at least one pairing who were never champions together before. However if Kyoraku Kyomei and Daydream both win then that means the final consists of all former tag champions.

Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

3. Sumire Natsu & Riara Vs Maya Yukihi & Alex Lee
4. Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Sayaka Unagi
5. ICEx∞ Title: YuuRI (c) Vs Ami Manase

The summer is nearing its end and so too is this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. Four women are left standing and two of those will be next to fall. Miyu Yamashita is trying to win the tournament for the first time after a decade of trying, Yuki Arai is benefitting from adding Saki Akai’s Rookie Award finisher to her moveset, Rika Tatsumi is in the middle of one hell of a run and Yuki Kamifuku is showing everyone just how successful she can be when she puts her mind to it.

Mizuki & Mahiro Kiryu are the two women teaming together to fight NEO Biishiki-gun.

Match #4 is made up of the four women who were knocked out in the Quarter Finals.

The 6-Woman Tag Match in Match #2 is entirely made up of the 2023 class.

DDT “SAKI AKAI 10TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR IN KORAKUEN!!”, 13/08/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Yuya Koroku Vs Rukiya
1. Jun Akiyama, Yukio Naya & Yusuke Okada Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ishida & Takeshi Masada

7. Saki Akai Debut 10th Anniversary Match Vol. 2 ~ Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Saki Akai, Maya Yukihi & Asuka Vs Takumi Iroha, Rina Yamashita & Shoko Nakajima

Akai’s next 10th Anniversary match will feature her teaming with Maya Yukihi & Asuka. They were two of her recent big opponents here in DDT. Their opponents all debuted in 2013, the same year as Akai. Takumi Iroha & Rina Yamashita were already announced and this past weekend Shoko Nakajima was revealed to be the third woman on the team.

Hirata found a way to beat HARASHIMA. He’s also beaten Sakaguchi once before but as Extreme Champion he will come up with any stipulation that will tip the scales in his favour. Otherwise Sakaguchi is going to kill him and take his title!

Makoto Oishi has convinced Yuji Hino to go after the KO-D Tag Team Titles with him. Maybe Hino would be better off teaming with Yukio Naya for the match but Oishi being such a caring father for his children convinced Hino to stick with him.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN – DAY 1”, 16/08/2023
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. The Scariest Event In History! Ghost Story New Numabukuro Death Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Saki Akai Vs Yuni Vs Hideki Okatani Vs Kazuma Sumi (Ghost Story Reading Artist: Hisaya Imabayashi)
2. Blindfold Hidden Breast 4 Way Death Match: HARASHIMA Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda Vs Yuki “Sexy” Iino

DDT “SOMA TAKAO LOCAL TRIUPMH! MEMORIES OF SUMMER VACATION 2023 TOUR IN OTA-KU”, 19/08/2023
Tokyo Ota Ward Industrial Plaza PiO Small Exhibition Hall

1. Special Tag Match: Soma Takao & Shota Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Kazuki Hirata
2. Jun Akiyama, Saki Akai & Antonio Honda Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ishida & Rukiya
3. DAMNATION T.A Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Yuki Ueno & Toy Kojima

The recent actions of Konosuke Takeshita has fired up the rivalry between DAMNATION T.A and The 37KAMIINA. The one here is a rematch from the end of June when Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul beat Yuki Ueno & Toy Kojima to win the vacant tag titles.

DDT “OSAKA BAY BLUES SPECIAL 2023”, 20/08/2023
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Osaka Specialty Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Tsutenkakka Vs Akito & Kazuma Sumi
2. BURNING Vs Harimao!: Jun Akiyama & Kotaro Suzuki Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida
3. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada Vs Shigehiro Irie & HARASHIMA
4. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Yuki Ueno
5. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Yoshitatsu & Toy Kojima Vs Yukio Sakaguchi, Hideki Okatani & Soma Takao

Sasaki has a few singles matches against different members of The 37KAMIINA this month. Yuki Ueno keeps being told by Takeshita to follow his lead and Sasaki has become a big supporter of that idea.

DDT “MEMORIES OF SUMMER VACATION 2023”, 27/08/2023
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Saki Akai Debut 10th Anniversary Match Vol. 3 ~ Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Saki Akai
2. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs MAO
3. HARASHIMA Debut 22nd Anniversary Match: HARASHIMA Vs X

Sasaki also has to face MAO. He might start regretting taking Takeshita’s side in the matter just because of how much extra ring work it’s giving him.

Akai asked Danshoku Dieno for a singles match to call back memories of the Extreme Title bout from 2016. Their match back then featured a stipulation that nobody was allowed to cry or else they would lose. It was a match that Akai learned a lot and still thinks about after all this time. Dieno understands how much it means to her and will not be using his “Dandy” persona for that reason.

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN IZUKOGEN GRANILLUMI”, 02/09/2023
Shizuoka Izu Granpal Park

1. Falls Count Anywhere 4 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Saki Akai Vs Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toy Kojima (w/ Shunma Katsumata) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Shinya Aoki & Takeshi Masada Vs Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & X

A lot of people are gathering together to wrestle among the bright lights of Izu Granpal Park. Not only is Shinya Aoki showing up but Pheromones will be joined by a mystery wrestler.

DDT “DDT BIG BANG 2023”, 09/09/2023
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Pheromones Vs Subjugation Final Match! Special Single Match ~ Dissolution Contra Vice President: Yuki “Sexy” Iino (w/ Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno) Vs Akito
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani Vs Yuko Miyamoto, Isami Kodaka & Ram Kaichow
3. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Yuki Ueno & MAO
4. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Yoshi Tatsu & Toy Kojima Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie

Sick of his demands being ignored, Atsushi Onita took it upon himself last week to crash a training session at the DDT dojo and confront Jun Akiyama. Apparently Onita got in touch with Kojima and demanded to find out when Akiyama was in the building. Kojima told him but didn’t actually expect he would show up. Onita told Akiyama the names of many famous wrestlers who fought him in Explosion Death Matches then asked why is he the only person who refuses to take part? Onita also reminded Sanshiro Takagi he was promised this match would happen. Akiyama accepted the challenge and both sides decided their teams. Onita will team with Yoshi Tatsu & Toy Kojima while Akiyama & Takagi will add Yusuke Okada to their team.

Is the team of Ueno & MAO enough to beat Takeshita & Sasaki? We’re heading into dangerous territory here as tensions raise higher and higher.

If Eruption are still the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions coming out of their All Japan appearance at the end of this month then their match against Yuko Miyamoto, Isami Kodaka & Ram Kaichow will be a title match.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT ’23 ~NAGOYA PERFORMANCE~”, 18/09/2023
Nagoya International Conference Center Event Hall

1. Saki Akai & Yuki Arai Vs X & X

This will be the final time Reiwa AA Cannon will team together, just two months before Akai retires.

DDT “DRAMATIC EXPLOSION 2023”, 18/09/2023
Nagoya International Conference Center Event Hall

1. Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita Vs X

Minoru Suzuki will be on the show. This is happening the same day as the Bullet Train match with Takagi by the way. How else were they making it to Nagoya?

“MASAHIRO TAKANASHI 20TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW”, 19/09/2023
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Exhibition: Masahiro Takanashi Vs KUDO
2. Yukio Sakaguchi, Isami Kodaka & Ken Ohka Vs MAO, Daiki Shimomura & Munetatsu Nakamura
3. Special Single Match: Mei Suruga Vs Minoru Suzuki
4. Chris Brookes Vs Masahiro Takanashi

No way was KUDO going to miss Masahiro Takanashi’s big show. He isn’t in ring shape to do a full wrestling match so Takanashi decided KUDO will face him in a 5 minute exhibition instead.

Saki Akai will also be on the show.

5. Akito & Yasu Urano defeated Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao when Urano pinned Ishii with a Rolling Cradle (10:47).

DDT went to the great outdoors for this show. Izuguranparu Park was holding a light show and DDT was brought in as the lead up to the event. A ring and stage entrance was set up in the area but everyone in the main event didn’t care and took the match over to different areas of the park. Yukio Sakaguchi and Saki Akai entered the area in style by driving a car over to the ring. Sanshiro Takagi cycled to ringside on his Combat Bicycle. He used a fire extinguisher on anyone in his way. Then there was a daisy chain of Necklocks along a pathway. The match went over to the trampoline area where everyone got on swings and tried to swing into each other. Takagi was thrown into a night covered in lights and acted like he was caught in a barbed wire explosion blast. Tetsuya Endo Moonsaulted off of a vending machine. Then he was run over by the car driven by Sakaguchi. Konosuke Takeshita found a baseball bat covered in lights and swung it at Takagi. The match eventually found its way back to the ring and HARASHIMA pinned Hiroshi Fukuda with the Somato to win.

Super Sasadango Machine presented his thesis on “The Creation Of Mutual Benefit In Professional Wrestling And Illumination” before the DDT Extreme Title match. He then faced Shigehiro Irie in an Illumination Match. As daylight went away the lights in the area would switch on. Sasadango was hoping that the pretty lights would distract Irie so he could hit the Lehmann Shock three times, enough to beat anyone. In order to do this he had possession of three Illumination Cards that would activate Royale Mode and switch on the lights. The plan surprisingly worked and Sasadango pinned Irie after the third Lehmann Shock. The champion admitted he thought he was going to die and he wanted to turn down his next title defence scheduled for 24th April. Kazuki Hirata came down on a segway and challenged Sasadango for the title.

Kouki Iwasaki took the Right To Challenge contract from Tomomitsu Matsunaga by pinning him in the opener.

DDT “STREET WRESTLING” Results

April 15, 2015

DDT “STREET WRESTLING”, 15/04/2015
Shizuoka Izuguranparu Park
500 Fans – Super No Vacancy

4 Way Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai defeated Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki, Danshoku Dino & Saki Akai and Gota Ihashi & Suguru Miyatake when Kasai pinned Ihashi with the Pearl Harbour Splash from a 110m long slide through a table (1:05:31).

izuguranparu1

 

Izuguranparu Park is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and DDT did its part by holding a street wrestling match there. This was the largest area for a match DDT has ever wrestled in. Sanshiro Takagi claimed that 220,000 square metres of land was the maximum range they could fight in. The match begun in a small square acting as a makeshift ring. Takagi came out with a guitar and Gota Ihashi was armed with a steel basin. Danshoku Dino was not acting like a Buddhist pilgrim and was back to his normal self just for today. Jun Kasai was jealous of the crowd support for Saki Akai and stomped on a fan’s sign that was made for Akai.

izuguranparu2

Obviously the match could never be contained in the square and the action quickly spread across the park. They reached the adventure park where there was nets, swings and a low zipline for everyone to do moves from. Next up was a public restroom where everyone took a quick toilet break. After that they found a go kart track and had an imprompty race. Takagi & Kasai came first and afterwards they tried to run over everyone else.

izuguranparu3

The match travelled over to River Island where there was a water slide for the wrestlers to dunk each other in. Daisuke Sasaki was dunked the most. Takagi returned with the Combat Bicycle and easily beat Kota Ibushi on a small Ladybug Bike. Unfortunately Takagi then crashed straight into Kasai on another Ladybug Bike. Dino then threw Takagi into a castle of chairs that was set up nearby.

izuguranparu4

Ibushi found the trampoline play area and immediately jumped in. He bounced Suguru Miyatake with the Sit Down Power Bomb and then did a Bouncing Phoenix Splash onto Ihashi. Elsewhere Kasai and Sasaki found a shooting gallery and had a duel with cork guns. Kasai tried to take a female fan hostage with his cork gun. Ibushi with the help of Dino stuck a cork gun up Ihashi’s backside. Dino then stuck the same cork gun up Takagi’s nose.

izuguranparu5

When that was done all eight wrestlers went to a lake where there was floating water spheres for them to enter. Sasaki put Miyatake in the Cross Facelock inside one of the spheres. Apparantly Miyatake gave up but Yukinori Matsui was outside the sphere and couldn’t hear him.

izuguranparu6

As the match length was heading towards one hour the match moved over to its final location, the 110m long Super Slide! Makoto Oishi was there and he held Ihashi in place at the bottom as wrestler after wrestler plunged down the slide to Dropkick him. Dino was the last one and he intentionally crotched himself on Ihashi.

izuguranparu7

There was also a zipline next to the slide and Miyatake used it to slam himself into his opponents until Takagi sprayed him with a hydrant of carbon dioxide gas. With an opportunity to win the match presenting itself, Takagi found a table and placed Ihashi on top of it while Kasai climbed up the slide. Kasai positioned himself over Ihashi and hit the Pearl Harbour Splash from the slide through the table!

izuguranparu8

After the match Kasai told Takagi that while the height of his jump was no big deal, the table was still positioned too close to the slide and could have been very dangerous. Kasai has a policy to think before he dives. Takagi apologised. Everyone then went back to the starting area where they met the president of the park and also held a Q&A session for the fans.
