1. Special Single Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Makoto Oishi with the Perfect Plex (8:40).

5. Drop Kick Vs Ebisuko Tavern Entire Surface Of Strife Extra Chapter!: Isami Kodaka & Tetsuya Endo defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Kouki Iwasaki when Endo pinned Iwasaki with the Sky Twister Press (16:53).

The main event included a No Touch rule allowing wrestlers to tag in without making physical contact with their tag partners. Isami Kodaka used hits to his advantage when he ducked a Clothesline from Kouki Iwasaki and then immediately dove out of the ring onto Kazusada Higuchi. Tetsuya Endo then attacked Iwasaki and finished him with the Sky Twister Press. Endo celebrated a successful defence of his Right To Challenge contract with some drinks.

The 3 Way Match began with Shunma Katsumata and Sayaka Obihiro testing each other’s strength with Hand Sumo. Antonio Honda couldn’t participate and began to cry over being left out. Katsumata and Obihiro grabbed each of Honda’s hands so he could be included then both him in the chest. Honda shrugged off the blows and pointed at both of them shouting “You!” He then attacked his opponents with Southern style Jabs. The three traded pinning combinations until Honda got the three count over Katsumata. Obihiro described her first appearance for Tavern Wrestling as a frenzy and a good experience.

LiLiCo and Mizuki Watase have been training hard for the Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Death Match. And by training hard I mean making out in the DDT dojo.

TAVERN WRESTLING “DON’T THE HANGOVER 2016”, 06/07/2016

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KASUKABE LOVE RIN”, 09/07/2016
Saitama Kasukabe Hall

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU 2016”, 17/07/2016
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

2. Shigehiro Irie Send-off Match: Shigehiro Irie & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs HARASHIMA & Keisuke Ishii

Shigehiro Irie’s final DDT match for now involves his closest allies and rivals. He’s teaming with Yukio Sakaguchi because they rarely if not ever wrestled together on the same side. He’s fighting HARASHIMA because he ultimately wants to surpass him. Keisuke Ishii is also there because of their close ties together in Team Drift. They were champions together but now go their separate ways.

As one of the few remaining Right To Challenge holders, Kouki Iwasaki is in a dangerous position going up against a fresh out of retirement Dick Togo.

DDT “PETER PAN 2016 ~MOST HOT SUMMER IN THE WORLD~”, 28/08/2016
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Special 6-Man Tag Team Match: Terry Funk, Sanshiro Takagi & NOSAWA Rongai Vs Great Kabuki, Yukio Sakaguchi & Kota Umeda
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa

Shuji Ishikawa’s spot in the main event is guaranteed. However the KO-D Champion could change between now and then. Konosuke Takeshita has other title defences to worry about including any possible Right To Challenge cash ins.

Dick Togo and Reika Saiki are scheduled to wrestle on the show. Shigehiro Irie will not due to his excursion to America.

5g. Akito eliminated Gota Ihashi with a Figure Four Leg Lock (28:22).

Block A Standings

-. Ryota Nakatsu (4)
3. Ryuichi Sekine (2)
4. Yusuke Kubo (0)
-. SAGAT (0)

Block B Standings

1. FUMA (4)
-. Daichi Kazato (4)
-. Takumi Tsukamoto (4)
4. Hiroshi Fukuda (2)
-. Ryu Gouma (0)

In the latest battle between DDT’s eating establishments the Drop Kick Bar was victorious over Ebisuko Tavern. Ryuichi Sekine was the dominant member of the Drop Kick team, playing a part in eliminating 3 of the 4 opponents. Gota Ihashi had Kazusada Higuchi to rely on until Sekine Dropkicked him to the floor for an elimination. Ihashi finally got rid of Sekine when he ducked a Clothesline from Akito that hit Sekine instead. Ihashi tried to do what he could against Akito including a missed Moonsault but kept getting trapped in submission holds until he finally gave up to a Figure Four Leg Lock. After the match most of the wrestlers shook hands. The only exception was Kota Umeda towards Isami Kodaka.

Ryota Nakatsu is so far undefeated in the Heaven Summit tournament, winning his first two matches. SAGAT meanwhile is winless with one match left. He cannot understand why he is going through a losing streak.

Ryu Gouma lost the last of his Heaven Summit matches, ending his run with zero points. This time he lost the match by pinfall instead of countout. Because of this Gouma is now throwing his full support behind Hiroshi Fukuda to win the tournament.

The next Tavern Wrestling event will take place in July. There will also be three shows taking place on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd August.

TAVERN WRESTLING “ALCOHOL MANIA” Results

March 8, 2016

heiankyo-deathmatch

TAVERN WRESTLING “ALCOHOL MANIA”, 08/03/2016
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
330 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Jinbeizamen & Iriomote Wild Cat defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Gota Ihashi when Jinbeizamen pinned Gota Ihashi with a Diving Headbutt (9:49).
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Shoko Nakajima & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Miyu Yamashita & Nodoka-oneesan when Nakajima pinned Nodoka with a Jackknife Pin (8:58).
3. Heian-kyō Death Match: Ryota Nakatsu Vs Danshoku Dino ended in a No Contest after a double foul (11:20).
4. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Hiroshi Fukuda & SAGAT when Endo pinned SAGAT with the Torture Rack Bomb (11:52).
5. Isami Kodaka Vs Akito ended in a Time Limit Draw (30:00).

The Tavern Wrestling crowd got their money’s worth with Isami Kodaka Vs Akito going the full 30 minutes. Akito said he was happy to fight the champion to a draw. Kodaka then announced that Akito will begin working for the Dropkick Bar this month. He joked that Mic Inoue was the only decent human working there and he left to work for the new SWANDIVE bar. Dropkick Bar is now a dangerous place without him so Akito will come in as the deputy manager.

Hiroshi Fukuda made a promise to his Happy Motel team mates that he and SAGAT would fight them fair and square. He told them about his new special technique called the Space SAGAT Torpedo. That was the cue for a surprise attack but the New Gen Combo were ready for them. Fukuda kept trying to set up the Space SAGAT Torpedo with his partner but was cut off every time. He was eventually put away with Tetsuya Endo’s Torture Rack Bomb.

Danshoku Dino came to Tavern Wrestling with a purpose. He wanted to collect Ryota Nakatsu’s ass for his upcoming match with Akebono. Nakatsu agreed to put his ass on the line but only if they fight in a Heian-kyō Death Match. The rule is if a wrestler commits a foul he must be punished by getting hit in the ass with a baseball bat. This is based on a trend in Niigata that’s gone viral where tourists pose with a statue of a baseball player and pretend they are being hit in the ass with the statue’s bat (Google ケツバット and click on images). Dino immediately fouled Nakatsu by applying a Danshoku Claw Hold and had to be punished. Nakatsu then commited a foul by refusing to let go of a Sleeper Hold when Dino grabbed the ropes. More fouls were called for Nakatsu accidentaly knocking over the referee and Dino applying the Lip Lock on the ref. When the ref recovered Dino and Nakatsu were fighting over the baseball bat. Nakatsu pulled it away and took a swing. Dino ducked and the ref got hit! The ref had enough and disqualified both wrestlers for their constant fouling.

December 18, 2015

3dish

TAVERN WRESTLING “~BIG YEAR END PARTY~”, 18/12/2015
Shin-kiba 1st RING
362 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Yasu Urano & Yusuke Kubo defeated Akito & Ryota Nakatsu when Kubo pinned Nakatsu with the Nude Clutch (15:16).
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Shoko Nakajima & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Miyu Yamashita & Hyper Misao when Nakajima pinned Misao with the Northern Lights Suplex (9:49).
3. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Daichi Kazato & Kota Umeda when Endo pinned Umeda with the Torture Rack Bomb (17:12).
4. U.S.A Sakavivor Series – Nerima World Order Vs U.S.A Superstars: Sumo Rock, “Stone Cold” Sekine Ryuichin & Man Man Kai Kind defeated “Big Sexy” Hiroshi Fukuda, Hanolek Hogaso & Nerima Sting when Rock pinned Fukuda with the People’s Elbow (14:43).
5. Isami Kodaka defeated Kouki Iwasaki with the Isamuashi Zan (14:29).

After spending a month banished to the dark matches in DDT, Kouki Iwasaki was given a shot at the main event with a non-title match against Isami Kodaka. But the gap of experience between the two was too large and Iwasaki struggled when Kodaka targeted his legs. Kodaka still praised him for being strong.

All hell broke loose in the Sakavivor Series match. Interference came in many forms. The first one was Booker T-ish (Suguru Miyatake) who did a spinaroonie. Then Tazz-ish (Yasu Urano) came out to choke out Man Man Kai Kind. After a referee bump out came the Dudley Boyz-ish. Bubba-ish (Shigehiro Irie) and D-Von-ish (Kazuki Hirata) gave Hiroshi Fukuda the Whassup! Headbutt while Spike-ish (???) watched on. Suddenly the Hardy Boyz-ish (SAGAT & ???) ran out to fight with the Dudleys-ish but they were given the 3D. Rob Van Dam-ish (Akito) attacked Spike-ish with a chair and cleared the ring until Hanolek Hogaso knocked him out with his belt. The Nerima World Order gave “Stone Cold” Sekine Ryuichin a beatdown but he kicked out of their finishers. The tables turned when the nWo accidentaly Clotheslined each other. That allowed the U.S.A team to gang up on Fukuda and pin him after the People’s Elbow from Sumo Rock. The nWo attacked Fukuda after the match and kicked him out of their group. The Undertaker-ish (Konosuke Takeshita) arrived on a scooter and it looked like Fukuda would be saved! Instead Taker-ish Choke Slammed and Power Bombed the U.S.A team and left the nWo alone.

TAVERN WRESTLING “~NO ALCOHOL NO LIFE~”, 25/11/2015
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
307 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Carlos Nakatsu & Mammoth Higuchi defeated Mendoza Toba & Danbira Sekine when Higuchi pinned Toba with the Goten (R3 0:43).
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Miyu Yamashita & Erin defeated Yuka Sakazaki & Rika Tatsumi when Yamashita pinned Tatsumi with the Crash Rabbit Heat (7:35).
3. 3 Way Match: Joey Ryan defeated Akito and Kouki Iwasaki when Ryan pinned Iwasaki with the Super Kick (10:12).
4. Tavern Wrestling Sekigun Vs U.S.A Sekigun: KI Punk & Hiroshi Fukuda Vs Nerima Sting & Hanolek Hogaso ended in a No Contest (15:02).
5. Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Abdullah Kobayashi & Takayuki Ueki when Endo pinned Ueki with the Torture Rack Bomb (13:40).

The foreign sports entertainment invasion cannot be stopped, in fact they had someone on the inside all along. Isami Kodaka was taken out of action at the beginning of the show when he was ambushed by Mankind-ish and left unconscious by the Mandible Claw. Luckily KI Punk was in the area and stepped in to replace Kodaka. Nerima Sting & “Hollywood” Hanolek Hogaso appeared wearing Nerima World Order T-shirts and brawled with their opponents. Punk almost submitted Sting with the Devil Lock but Hogaso pulled Daisuke Kiso out of the ring and knocked him out. All Hell broke loose when Mankind-ish returned. But Tazz-ish (Kouki Iwasaki) came out and stopped him with the Tazzmission. Kodaka was put through a world of hurt when he was given the Scorpion Death Drop, Leg Drop and Scorpion Deathlock in quick succession. He tapped out but the referee was still knocked out. Punk hit Sting with the GTS and went for the pin but Fukuda suddenly turned on him and attacked him with a baseball bat! Kiso woke up and called for a no contest. Fukuda joined the nWo but their celebration was interrupted by The Rock-ish (Kazusada Higuchi) and Stone Cold Steve Austin-ish (Ryuichi Sekine). They chased away the nWo and shared a beer with Punk. Austin-ish then gave Punk a Stunner.

9. DDT Extreme Title – UWF + 3 Count Rules: Antonio Honda (c) Vs Kendo Kashin
10. KO-D Openweight Title: Yukio Sakaguchi (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title went through 10 title changes during yesterday’s “OSAKA OCTOPUS 2015” press conference. Cherry took offence to Saki Akai talking about her hopes of winning the title in Osaka and tried to steal her spotlight. Akai responded by trying to pin Cherry to win the title. Cherry kicked out and pushed Akai away but was then pinned by Makoto Oishi. That led to a Headscissors chain that saw the title go through Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata, Masa Takanashi, Suguru Miyatake, Shunma Katsumata, Cherry and last but not least Gota Ihashi. Ihashi tried to woo Akai by taking off his wrestling tights but Akai knocked him out with a Head Kick. The tights fell on top of Ihashi and after a three count was declared the champion! Cherry was the only person brave enough to touch the tights and pin them to win back the title. She then ran away with everyone chasing after her.

Antonio Honda has confirmed his DDT Extreme Title match with Kendo Kashin will be fought under UWF Rules with pinfalls also allowed. However both Honda and Kashin have admitted at the time not knowing what the UWF Rules were.
