DDT “LAST MINUTE SPECIAL”, 03/07/2011
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Member Of The Superstars (Susan Guard & Shit Heart ♥ Foundation)
2. Takao Soma Vs Hikaru Sato

Hikaru Sato demanded to face Takao Soma in a singles match, their first since Soma defeated Sato in a Hair Vs Hair match back in February. Now that Soma has been kicked out of Shit Heart ♥ Foundation, will he go into the match with a new attitude and hope to make peace with Sato? If so, will Hikaru Sato be able to resist the urge to tear off the arm of the man who humiliated him?

Speaking of the Shit Heart ♥ Foundation, the group now consists of Tomomitsu Matsunaga and the Super Shit Machine. After kicking out Takao Soma, they have struck up an alliance with the Susan Guard of Yoshiaki Yago, Kengo Mashimo & Madoka to form a new group called The Superstars. They will make their first appearance together at Shin-Kiba 1st RING when one of them will take on Sanshiro Takagi.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Dick Togo (c) Vs Kota Ibushi

There are plenty of questions to ask about tomorrow’s DDT show. Can Kota Ibushi dethrone Dick Togo? Who will get the “Anytime and Anywhere” Title Shot? What other participants and prizes will be part of the Battle Royal? Who is the assassin sent by Bob Sapp to fight Danshoku Dino? Has Antonio Honda stepped up enough of his game to match HARASHIMA? What does Poison Sawada JULIE have in store for the fans when he brings in the Snake Corps? All this and more will be answered in what will be an important stop on the road to Sumo Hall.

DDT’s next DVD release will be “BEST OF THE SUPER Street Wrestling King – Kota Ibushi”, a collection of DDT’s infamous “Anywhere Pro Wrestling” matches featuring the Golden Star. It was originally supposed to be released in time for tomorrow’s 14th Anniversary show but production was delayed due to the recent disasters in Japan. The new release date for the DVD is 13th April.


DDT “MALL ENTERTAINMENT WRESTLING AGAIN” Results

December 11, 2010

DDT “MALL ENTERTAINMENT WRESTLING AGAIN”, 11/12/2010
Tōjinmachi Shopping Arcade, Fukuoka City
400 Fans

4 Way Match: Kota Ibushi defeated Dick Togo, Michael Nakazawa and Sanshiro Takagi when Ibushi pinned Nakazawa with a German Suplex (24:43).

DDT held another of its “Anywhere Pro Wrestling” events, this time returning to the Tōjinmachi Shopping Arcade in Fukuoka City. The match was a free for all between Sanshiro Takagi, Kota Ibushi, Dick Togo and Michael Nakazawa. Fans were allowed to spend up to 3000 yen on products that could be given to wrestlers to use during the brawl. Sanshiro bought himself an AKB48 calendar at a 100 yen shop (so that is where the TKG48 name came from). Nakazawa got himself a toy baseball bat to choke people with. Takagi & Ibushi fought each other inside a coffee shop and apologised to the customers when they left. Ibushi and Nakazawa then traded punches on top of a few vending machines. Ibushi knocked his opponent to the ground and then Moonsaulted off of the machines and onto his target. Batten Tamagawa made an appearance with a boombox. He switched on “Pomp And Circumstance” and was about to perform a dance when Takagi hit him over the head with a back scratcher. A smallarea of the mall was covered in cardboard and that was where Ibushi won the match with a German Suplex to Nakazawa. Takagi then welcomed Dick Togo to the mall as it was his first time visiting the place. After the match all of the wrestlers signed the weapons bought by the fans.


Ruins Pro-Wrestling Results

August 1, 2010

DDT “RUINS PRO-WRESTLING”
30/07/2010
Moriya Friend Park, Ibaraki
120 Fans

1. KO-D Tag Team Title & Moriya Tag Team Title, 3 Way Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa (c) defeated HARASHIMA & Hiroyo Matsumoto and Kenji Abe & Mitsuhiro Yoshida (c) when Sawa submitted Yoshida with the Octopus Hold (16:11).
*V8 For Takagi & Sawa.

The “Greatest Title Run Ever” ™ moves on with great momentum as Sanshiro Takagi & Munenori Sawa once again triumphed in another DDT “Anywhere Pro-Wrestling” show. This time the location was a community centre in Moriya City, Ibaraki. It was a small venue and there were only two floor mats used to represent the squared circle. The match was a Three Way Tag Team bout that was originally meant to be non-title. But Kenji Abe & Mitsuhiro Yoshida wanted to put their Moriya Tag Team Titles on the line to unify them with the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Takagi & Sawa agreed to the challenge and put their belts on the line. Rounding up the competing teams were the duo of HARASHIMA & joshi wrestler Hiroyo Matsumoto. Tomimitsu Matsunaga served as the referee for this match. Weapons that were used in the match included Sanshiro’s guitar, a trash can, a cardboard box, a wooden board, a squeeky plastic mallet and electric clippers. Yoshida was the unfortunate victim of the clippers and was left with a few shears across his scalp. At one point, Takagi & Sawa attempted to do the Golden Shower (Double 450 Splashes) but were cut off by Kenji Abe. The three way brawl traveled outside to the building’s backyard. A large hole was dug out and Sawa struck Yoshida into the hole with an Irabu Punch. Sawa leapt into the hole and applied the match winning Octopus Hold to make it V8 for the KO-D Tag Champs along with a new pair of belts to add to their collection. After the match, Yoshida had the rest of his hair shaved off.

This is the eigth successful defence for the champs. I lost count along the way and originally thought it was their ninth.
