DDT “LET’S GO! IMAIKE MOTOIKE 2025” Results

October 26, 2025

DDT “LET’S GO! IMAIKE MOTOIKE 2025”, 26/10/2025
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Antonio Honda defeated Kazuma Sumi with a School Boy Cutback (8:43).
2. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated KANON, Naomi Yoshimura, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato when Okatani pinned Koroku with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster (13:30).
3. Yukio Naya & HARASHIMA defeated Jun Akiyama & Hinata Kasai when Naya submitted Kasai with a Crab Hold (12:25).
4. Nagoya Specialty Imaike Style Bunbun Hunter x Hunter Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated Kazuki Hirata & Akito when Masada rescued Bunbun from Hirata (9:41).
5. Special Single Match: MAO (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Yuki Iino with a Gedo Clutch Bridge (12:38).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs Harimao!: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Ueno pinned Ishida with the Jul.2 (19:19).

While Yuki Ueno is building up his own momentum for Sumo Hall, he took time after the main event to praise Yuki Ishida for the boost of energy in his performances since the most recent Korakuen Hall show. To-y said after a hard weekend it’s only The 37KAMIINA who are left standing. He told the audience if they are ever going through difficulty, they should tilt their head to the side and then scream. After that you’ll instantly feel refreshed and won’t care about anything!

The KO-D Tag Team Titles preview continued with the other halves of The Apex and Strange Love Connection facing each other one on one. MAO now considers himself as a heavyweight wrestler so Yuki Iino was happy to welcome him in with heavy strikes to his opponent. KIMIHIRO distracted Iino by stealing his catchphrase so Iino knocked him off the apron with a Chop to the chest. MAO rolled Iino over using a Gedo Clutch but then bridged himself backwards to pin Iino for the three count. After this weekend The Apex and SLC are 1-1 in singles matches. Both sides agreed that once Team 200kg will be added to the mix at Sumo Hall the title match truly will become the “ULTIMATE PARTY”.

Bunbun went missing during the show and it turned out there was a reason for that. Match #4 became a Bunbun Hunter x Hunter Match where three wrestlers in the room were each carrying a sack with something inside it. The wrestlers had to grab the sack containing Bunbun but if they grabbed the wrong one, they were eliminated from the match. Chris Brookes and Akito both picked wrong so it was left to Takeshi Masada and Kazuki Hirata to fight each other over the remaining sack. Masada gave Hirata his finisher before taking the sack off him, pulling out Bunbun to win. SCHADENFREUDE International apologised to Bunbun afterwards for leaving him behind.

DDT “EMPEROR OF THE RING” Results

October 25, 2025

DDT “EMPEROR OF THE RING”, 25/10/2025
Osaka City Ikuno Ward Community Center
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. 3 Way Match: Hideki Okatani defeated Yuki Ishida and Kazuma Sumi when Okatani pinned Sumi with a Gyaku-uchi (8:56).
2. Kazuki Hirata “Second Match Triumphant Return” Series Vol. 3: MAO (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Kazuki Hirata with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch (14:34).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Yuki Iino, Akito & Hinata Kasai when Ilusion pinned Kasai with the Swanton Bomb (13:35).
4. Jun Akiyama, Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura defeated HARASHIMA, Antonio Honda & Yuya Koroku when Yoshimura pinned Honda with a Lariat (14:39).
5. Special Single Match: Yukio Naya defeated KANON with The World’s Best Back Drop (17:08).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs SCHADENFREUDE International!: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada when Ueno pinned Masada with the BME (22:02).

In the main event there was a connection between Yuki Ueno and Takeshi Masada over the DDT Universal Title. Masada just recently lost to the champion Minoru Suzuki while Ueno is Suzuki’s next challenger. Ueno told Masada after today’s bout that he is not going to use Masada’s defeat as motivation for his own match with Suzuki. But Ueno counts on Masada nonetheless and hopes Masada will count on him to beat Suzuki. Meanwhile To-y came out of the match feeling a bump on his forehead but he is taking it as a good sign for his upcoming DDT Extreme Title defence.

There are two matches happening today and tomorrow involving The Apex and Strange Love Connection to serve as previews for the KO-D Tag Team Titles 3 Way. Today’s match had Yukio Naya beat KANON by using The World’s Best Back Drop twice. Naya said after the win that he was finally able to break KANON after losing to him in their three previous singles matches against each other. It doesn’t matter how strong his opponents are, Naya said The Apex will defend their tag titles!

The Osaka venue DDT was in today is apparently within cycling distance of Naomi Yoshimura’s high school so he was thrilled to win his match here.

MAO and Kazuki Hirata ended up turning their match into an invisible Stand battle, as in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure stands. Hirata’s stand was called Dancing Platinum while MAO’s was called Invisible Big Square. Since they were invisible, Yukinori Matsui had to wear special sunglasses in order to see the Stands in action while to the audience it looked like MAO and Hirata were trying to wrestle each other while staying several feet apart at all times. KIMIHIRO also had a stand of his own that caught Matsui’s hand during a pin count. Hirata attacked that stand with a weapon which also caused KIMIHIRO pain.

DDT “BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025 ~THE FINAL~” Results

October 23, 2025

DDT “BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025 ~THE FINAL~”, 23/10/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Kazuma Sumi 3rd Anniversary Celebration Match ~ Finishing Move “School Boy” Exclusive 4 Way Match: Kazuma Sumi defeated Yuya Koroku, Rukia and Hinata Kasai when Sumi pinned Rukiya with the School Boy (5:34).
2. “I Am The Apex!” “Come On!” “Dosukoi!” “BURNING!” “T.O.Y.” “NepoWER!!” “Wassoi!” “Nokotta Nokotta” Prohibited Match: To-y & Yuki Ishida defeated Yuki Iino by TKO when Iino said “I Am The Apex!” (9:18).
3. Yukio Naya, Jun Akiyama & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion when Higuchi submitted Ilusion with the Claw (9:20).
4. Special Single Match: KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Kazuki Hirata with a Body Press (11:12).
5. KING OF DRUNK 2025 FINAL ~Annual Championship Decision Match~: Daisuke Sasaki defeated MAO, HARASHIMA and Chris Brookes when Sasaki pinned HARASHIMA with a Body Press (24:54).
6. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shinya Aoki defeated Takeshi Masada & Daichi Sato when Ueno pinned Sato with the Jul.2 (20:45).

The last Beer Garden show of 2025 was full of fun and games to go along with all of the drinking. The main event didn’t look wacky on paper but halfway through all of the wrestlers involved disappeared backstage. When they reappeared on the stage they all looked kind of different. Yuki Ueno looked like To-y, Shinya Aoki looked like Kazuki Hirata, Daichi Sato looked like Kazuma Sumi and Takeshi Masada looked like Yuki Ishida. Then everyone in the venue started seeing double when the original wrestlers reappeared and continued the match alongside their lookalikes.

Some of the previous Beer Garden shows this year held KING OF DRUNK matches were the competing wrestlers were all encouraged to drink during the match. Four of them ended up qualifying for the grand final that was held today. They had to drink whenever music played over the speakers or else they would be disqualified. Yukinori Matsui joined in the drinking and it became a running joke that the music would play right when HARASHIMA or one of his opponents was about to do the Somato. Hisaya Imabayashi lost his patience and complained to everyone that they should be taking pro wrestling seriously. Then the song began again and even Imabayashi couldn’t resist dancing to it and joining in the fun. He ended up guiding MAO, Chris Brookes and Daisuke Sasaki into the corner so HARASHIMA could finally do the Somato into the group but all three wrestlers then just collapsed on top of HARASHIMA, pinning him for the three count. Matsui decided Sasaki was the winner because he was the one directly on top of HARASHIMA during the pin. Sasaki told the fans afterwards they should learn not to drink like they just did otherwise they are going to get sick and throw up.

KANON threatened to break apart the Hirata GO! glasses during his match but Kazuki Hirata convinced him to wear them instead. He did so and started to dance while Hirata picked up a chair to set up a sneak attack. But KANON swung his arms back mid-dance, unintentionally smacking the chair into Hirata’s face and knocking him out. KANON then pinned Hirata anyway.

Even more catchphrases were added to the ban list for the 3 Way Match. Yuki Iino, To-y and Yuki Ishida all had to avoid saying their phrases or else risk getting disqualified. Iino couldn’t help but say “I Am The Apex” to set up his Elbow Drop. He did the move on both opponents at the same time so both To-y and Ishida were declared the winners.

The D GENERATIONS match ended up being a celebration of Kazuma Sumi’s third year of being a pro wrestler. It was a 4 Way match that could only be won by pinning your opponent with the School Boy since that is the move Sumi has been using to win matches ever since MIKAMI passed it down to him.

Tomorrow will be both Kazusada Higuchi and Yuki Iino’s birthday so they got to celebrate it with a toast at the start of the show.

DDT “WRESTLING HARVEST ~CRIMSON SKY~” Results

October 19, 2025

DDT “WRESTLING HARVEST ~CRIMSON SKY~”, 19/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Naomi Yoshimura, Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi defeated Keisuke Ishii, Munetatsu Nakamura & Hinata Kasai when Sumi pinned Kasai with the School Boy (8:26).
2. Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada defeated Super Sasadango Machine, Akito & Fuminori Abe when Honda pinned Sasadango with the Diving Fist Drop (12:00).

5. Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata defeated Shinya Aoki with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (7:25).
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya (c) defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Naya pinned Ishida with The World’s Best Back Drop (22:20).
*V5 for The Apex.
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) defeated Minoru Suzuki, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the WR (28:51).
*V1 for Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi.

We’re less than a month away from “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” and the entire lineup has fallen into place after today’s show. First up there was the matter of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match to deal with. It was another chance for Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki to fight each other but other parties was at play too. Kaisei Takechi wanted to test himself against Suzuki so he can experience the thrill of that first hand. Suzuki definitely made sure it was an experience hat Takechi isn’t going to forget anytime soon. HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku were both willing to team with Suzuki since it was a good shot at both of them winning a championship again. Takechi had To-y helping out when he could and he was even able to hold Suzuki back while Ueno pinned Koroku with the WR for a successful title defence.

Suzuki shrugged off the loss and pointed out that Ueno couldn’t beat him today. The one who is going to hold the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title together at the same time first will be Minoru Suzuki! Ueno talked back and said he will beat the “King Of Pro Wrestling” because he is the “King Of DDT“! Suzuki then reintroduced himself to DDT’s “King” and the two grabbed each other by the neck before shoving each other away. When Suzuki left, Takechi talked about his upcoming Sumo Hall tag match where he will team with Konosuke Takeshita. The other team hasn’t been announced yet but Takechi heard that Takeshita wants Kazusada Higuchi to be one of the opponents. Takechi wants to nominate a wrestler too. He wants to fight one of his opponents from his debut match, Takeshi Masada! The request was accepted and the tag match will be Takeshita & Takechi versus Higuchi & Masada.

The challenges are only ramping up higher for The Apex. Today they had to defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against the Harimao pair of Higuchi & Yuki Ishida. The latter was no problem for Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya to handle but Higuchi remained a regular presence in the match to keep it difficult for the champions. Ishida got to give Naya a taste of their own medicine and throw him around with a Superplex. But one Dosuoki Splash after the other from Higuchi and then Ishida wasn’t enough to win. Iino used the Spear on Higuchi to get rid of him while Ishida couldn’t get the victory with the Flame Palm or the Dosukoi Clutch. Instead Naya cut him off with a Knee Lift and used The World’s Best Back Drop to put the spirited underdog away.

Naya said Ishida thinks of himself as pathetic and embarrassing but after the match they just had, nobody will think that of him now. Naya had a senior that pulled him out of being hopeless and helped turn him into the wrestler he is today. He reminded Ishida that he has many supporting seniors around him and he is a strong DDT wrestler. The two shook hands over it before The Apex turned their attention to their next title defence. They suddenly received a video message from Team 200kg asking for a title shot! Iino went looking around Korakuen Hall to see if Chihiro Hashimoto was really in the venue but neither she nor Yuu were there. Naya reminded everyone that Hashimoto has singles match wins against Iino so of course Iino would have unfinished business with her. Suddenly the Strange Love Connection then entered the ring. MAO revealed he’s had a secret plan up until now to bulk up and weigh over 100kg so he can beat either The Apex or Harimao for the tag titles. Since KANON now weighs 103kg that means SLC can be called Team 200kg too but Iino now has Hashimoto on his mind so the secret plan has been ruined. Hisaya Imabayashi came up with a solution. The KO-D Tag Titles will be on the line at Sumo Hall in a Survival 3 Way between The Apex, SLC and Team 200kg!

Kazuki Hirata had to rely on all of his wits and luck to just have a chance at beating Shinya Aoki. Instead it went beyond that. Hirata first asked for the match to have special rules including joint locks being banned and Aoki needing a 10 count pin to win. Aoki refused and got the match to start normally. Hirata left the ring when the going got tough and used the ringside attendants Rukiya and Hinata Kasai as shields when Aoki did a Topé Suicida onto them. Aoki seemed to lose him temper and threw everyone including the referee into the front row before attacking them all with chairs. Imabayashi tried to stop Aoki but the fighter then grabbed him in a Sleeper Hold and dragged him around ringside. Back in the ring Rukiya and Kasai tried to help Hirata but Aoki quickly regained momentum. That was until Imabayashi reappeared and grabbed Aoki from the top rope! Hirata & Imabayashi worked together but Aoki again took back control. However Hirata kicked out of the European Clutch, Imabayashi gave him the Stunner and Hirata applied the Miracle One Shot Cradle. Aoki briefly reversed it but it was reversed back resulting in an upset victory for Hirata! Their actions unexpectedly earned them Aoki’s respect and Imabayashi was carried out of the arena on top of Hirata and Aoki’s shoulders while the Pride FC victory theme played. Backstage Hirata said that maybe with this new bond he, Aoki & Imabayashi might one day challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles. Aoki was told a friendship was born but he joked it will break soon. He doesn’t understand how he has all of a sudden drifted away from the KO-D Title scene like this.

Match #4 was changed from an 8-Man Tag to a 6-Man Tag because Ilusion was feeling unwell and couldn’t wrestle. SLC welcomed back Kumadori so they could go fight against DAMNTION T.A together. Daisuke Sasaki tripped Kumadori while he was going for a dive and put him in the Crossface Lock. MAO tried a hot tag but Hideki Okatani attacked him with the bamboo stick to cut him off. KANON came to the rescure by Suplexing MJ Paul so SLC & Kumadori could all do flippy drop moves on top of him. Paul resisted Hurricane Kicks and Lariats until a Cross Lariat/McEnroe combo by SLC finally took him down. MAO then finished him off with the Cannonball 450. MAO said things are livening up with SLC thanks to KIMIHIRO’s rapping and Kumadori’s dance moves. Pro wrestling is 80% about the entrances anyway. Kumadori hasn’t forgotten about Ilusion though. He advised him to get plenty of rest and sleep so they can wrestle once he’s fully recovered.

The young tag team of Daichi Sato & Rukiya got an upset win over the veterans Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga. Rukiya got Body Slammed to heck and back before getting thrown into the ring post. Sato was put through the meat grinder too with Lariats and a Scorpion Death Lock but Rukiya was able to break him free. Rukiya then Double Dropkicked the other team, allowing Sato to build up momentum with differen kicks to Matsunaga. That kept Matsunaga down long enough for Sato to land the Mad Splash and pin him. Both he and Rukiya gave Akiyama a respectful bow after the match.

The rubber band spot backfired on SCHADENFREUDE International early on in their match when Antonio Honda tripped and hurt his knee while he was walking up the steps. The other team simply let go of the band while he was explaining what happened and the band snapped into him. Fuminori Abe then got permission from a fan sitting in a wheelchair at ringside to push them into Honda while Chris Brookes was chasing Akito around the ring. After the big Gongitsune spot, Brookes twisted Super Sasadango Machine’s mask over his eyes to blind him and then did a Codebreaker/Back Senton combo with Masada. Honda then pinned Sasadango with the Diving Fist Drop for the win.

Kazuma Sumi was moved from Match #4 to the opener because of Ilusion’s absence. Keisuke Ishii was also added to the match to even up the numbers, making him and Soma Takao opponents for the first time in a while. The change gave Sumi and Munetatsu Nakamura an opportunity to show off their agility against each other. Hinata Kasai tried to beat Sumi at his own game with School Boy pins but Sumi fought him off. Kasai then switched to a Backslide Pin and pulled off the move with help from Nakamura’s Super Kick. But Naomi Yoshimura broke the pin. Sumi got back on his feet and used the Tiger Feint Kick to give himself the momentum to swing Kasai into the School Boy for the three count out of nowhere.

A happy and relaxed looking Danshoku Dieno greeted the fans during the show to update everyone on his current status. He recently underwent emergency surgery for appendicitis that removed all of the toxins in his body. His return match will be at Sumo Hall on 3rd November where everyone will see a more beautiful side of him than ever before. He is currently only at 70% fitness but he is using his regular walks with his pet dog Haku to get his conditioning back. At the end of the show it was revealed that Dieno’s return match will be against Daisuke Sasaki! Dieno said backstage that when he was laying in his hospital bed he thought back on some of his past actions and felt embarrassed. He promised this more beautiful side of Dieno will wrestle clean matches from now on. When Sasaki found out about the match announcement it reminded him of the main event they had at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2018” where Dieno wrestled the late portion of the match completely naked. Sasaki warned Dieno that DDT is expecting them to deliver a rematch that goes beyond nudity this time! Dieno apparently has no memory of that match (he ended up being locked in a casket after losing and the trauma he suffered had blocked his memory) and doesn’t understand what Sasaki means by going beyond nudity.

The full card for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” was announced at the end of the show. The match order outside of the opening bout and the main event has not been decided on yet.

GanPro has a secret weapon up their sleeve for the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase will be accompanied by Nobita as their ringside attendant. Nobita is the nickname of Takahiro Nakayama, a GanPro staff member who was a pro wrestler for a very brief amount of time back in 2014. The FREEDOMS wrestlers had been bullying him around whenever they showed up at GanPro shows, unaware of his background. If Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura are not careful he might decide to start fighting back!

2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs J-Rod

The next wrestler from America has been chosen to go on tour with Tokyo Joshi Pro this November. J-Rod has around three years of experience since graduating from the NJPW Academy in America with Ohio Valley Wrestling being her current most regular promotion. The “Ultimate Athlete” will debut in TJPW on the 1st November show but the big match of her tour will be fighting either Miu Watanabe or Yuki Aino for the Princess Of Princess Title at November’s Korakuen show.

I don’t mind this trend of tag teams getting themselves in line for a future Princess Tag Team Titles shot while the champions still have other challengers to get through. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki have teamed on and off together this year but both are feeling left behind by other wrestlers from their class. The two are taking their team to the next level by challenging the winners of Ober Eats Vs Hot Shot for the titles.

Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Tag Match: MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki Vs X & X
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa Vs Yuji Nagata, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe

The last Super Japan show of the year is being advertised as the season finale of year one. Sanshiro Takagi is so happy with how Yuji Nagata has turned out as his chosen ace that he wants to wrestle Nagata himself. He also wants to team with Munenori Sawa again and expected Nagata to get more plenty of people offering to team with him so Jun Kasai was brought in to even up the numbers. Nagata has both Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe wanting to join his side so the two teams are now set.

Super Japan serves as an alternate take of what DDT could have turned into if Takagi chose that name instead of Dramatic Dream Team back in 1997. In DDT, MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki were more like rivals than partners despite once holding the KO-D Tag Titles together back in 2002. So Takagi wants to see what it would be like if the two of them were a tag team from the beginning instead of opponents. MIKAMI & Sasaki are both curious to find out for themselves as well.

October 12, 2025

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2025 ~HIDDEN GEM IN MACHIDA~ BORDERLINE TREASURES”, 12/10/2025
Tokyo Machida Rembrandt Hotel Sango Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ilusion defeated Hinata Kasai with a Modified Dragon Sleeper (8:10).
2. Kazuki Hirata “Second Match Triumphant Return” Series Vol. 2: Jun Akiyama & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Kazuki Hirata & Soma Takao when Yoshimura pinned Hirata with a Short-Range Lariat (10:39).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul defeated Kazusada Higuchi, Akito & Rukiya when Sasaki submitted Rukiya with the Crossface Lock (10:33).
4. Special Tag Match: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya defeated Yuki Ishida & Daichi Sato when Naya pinned Ishida with a Choke Slam (11:34).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada defeated MAO, KANON & Kazuma Sumi (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Honda pinned Sumi with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch (15:55).
6. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the Jul.2 (19:49).

Things went better for The 37KAMIINA today without Minoru Suzuki around to make their lives miserable. Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku in a preview of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. Koroku in particular became a target for Ueno & To-y both during and after the match. They said Koroku won’t be able to beat The 37KAMIINA if he’s just going to hide behind Suzuki. HARASHIMA however thinks his teamwork with Koroku today was impressive even though they lost. Koroku thinks it would be best if he targets the least experienced wrestler in the title match. He warns Kaisei Takechi that he is coming to take his title belt!

With Yuki Ishida fit and healthy to wrestle again, The Apex and Harimao were able to sign the contract for next week’s KO-D Tag Team Titles match. The challengers spoke first with Kazusada Higuchi reminding The Apex he wants to feel their weight as champions and give it their all. Ishida said there is a frustration building up inside him because Harimao is this unit of strong wrestlers but he has been holding them back. He is going to take those frustrations out on Yukio Naya in particular so Harimao can win the titles and move on up. Naya said he is determined to crush Ishida while Yuki Iino has been training his neck and head every day to combat against Higuchi’s Claw moves. He also disputed Higuchi’s opinion because he is well aware of how important the KO-D Tag Titles are, given that he had already held it once previously. Later on in the show The Apex crushed Ishida in a tag match, prompting Higuchi to give his prone partner a pep talk in the ring.

The hotel created a birthday cake for Jun Akiyama and Takeshi Masada to share with each other since their birthdays both recently happened this month.

DDT “RINGU NO AKIBASHO 2025” Results

October 8, 2025

DDT “RINGU NO AKIBASHO 2025”, 08/10/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: MJ Paul defeated Antonio Honda by submission when Honda was unable to withstand Paul’s weight (7:15).
2. Kazuki Hirata “Second Match Triumphant Return” Series Vol. 1: Akito, Soma Takao, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Kazuma Sumi defeated Kazuki Hirata when Sumi pinned Hirata with the School Boy (9:38).
3. Jun Akiyama defeated Hinata Kasai with a Crab Hold (8:52).
4. Chris Brookes, Shinya Aoki & Takeshi Masada defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion when Masada pinned Ilusion with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (13:17).
5. MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato when MAO submitted Sato with the Rock Killer (14:14).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Ryota Nakatsu & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Rukiya when Higuchi pinned Rukiya with the Claw Pin (12:38).
7. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & HARASHIMA defeated Yuki Ueno & To-y when Suzuki pinned To-y with the Gotch-Style Piledriver (20:06).

First blood goes to Minoru Suzuki. We’ve a long way to go until “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” and there’s another title match to get to even before that but today Suzuki beat The 37KAMIINA with HARASHIMA on his side. Both Yuki Ueno & To-y got their own moments of fighting Suzuki one on one but HARASHIMA was the X Factor making a difference. When both Ueno & To-y climbed the top rope on opposite corners, HARASHIMA blocked Ueno’s Frog Splash with his knees and then jumped up to To-y to hit him with a Knee Strike followed by a Superplex. Suzuki tagged in as the closer and Ueno’s attempts to stop him were taken away by HARASHIMA. To-y made one last desperate stand against Suzuki and all he got out of it was getting pinned with the Gotch-Style Piledriver. After the match Suzuki said Ueno will bow down before him in both of their upcoming title matches. Ueno responded that he is already prepared to beat him at Sumo Hall. Suzuki was left annoyed by Ueno and To-y but he’s getting along with HARASHIMA because their goals are currently alligned. HARASHIMA thinks their teamwork is perfect and both of them want to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles.

Yuki Ishida was too ill to wrestle today but the rest of Harimao were able to win their match despite his absence. Kazusada Higuchi scored the pinfall for his team and had a pull apart with both members of The Apex afterwards. Backstage Higuchi claimed Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya were acting too light to be KO-D Tag Team Champions. The championship has a long history and Higuchi has held it several times with many different wrestlers. He wants to add his team with Ishida to that list.

Bunbun learned a harsh lesson in sticking his nose where it might not belong. There’s still a grudge between SCHADENFREUDE International and DAMNATION T.A that makes their matches a dangerous place to be. Bunbun decided to get involved by aiding his stablemates and also jumping in to break a pinfall. However Hideki Okatani then got his hands on him and violently attacked Bunbun with his bamboo stick, including sticking it up where the sun doesn’t shine. Bunbun survived the attack and Shinya Aoki used the stick against DAMNATION T.A, allowing the SCHADENFREUDE to get the win.

A sick bug of some sort is going through the DDT roster. Danshoku Dieno is the latest wrestler to genuinely fall ill before a show which meant his singles match with Hinata Kasai was cancelled. Kasai didn’t find out who is new opponent was until the start of the show when it was announced to be Jun Akiyama! The rookie had his attacks shrugged off and he was then put away with a Piledriver followed by a Crab Hold that made him tap out. Kasai said the result clearly shows how inexperienced he is but on the bright side that means there is room for improvement. Akiyama said this match was fate because he only just met with Jun Kasai at a New Japan show the day before (that’s a sentence I thought I would never write). Akiyama was told by Jun to help take care of Hinata and then later Akiyama found out DDT was putting this match together on short notice.

The bug also caused Kazuki Hirata’s triumphant return to the second match of the card to be changed. He now had to fight everyone else by himself when the other wrestlers all decided to team up against him! He tried to find fans in the audience to help him even up the numbers until he was dragged back into the ring to continue the match. Gradually he found ways to get some of his opponents to join his side. He convinced Soma Takao to join him after threatening to cancel all of his appearances at the Drop Kick Bar. He won over Akito by promising to work for the next three months without pay. He tried to bribe Tomomitsu Matsunaga with 1,000 yen but Matsunaga refused. Hirata then offered 3,000 yen and this time Matsunaga accepted, leaving Kazuma Sumi on his own to fight everyone else! Hirata and his new allies all wore Hirata GO! glasses to power up but missed their final attack, colliding with each other. Sumi then picked them off one by one until he pinned Hirata with the School Boy.

Sumi also had a mini NωA Jr. performance with Shunma Katsumata at the start of the show. Yuni is still absent so he can focus on his education.

At the end of the show another wrestler threw their name into the DDT Extreme Title match happening at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025”. So far all of To-y’s opponents made their challenge on social media but Antonio Honda got on the microphone after the show and spoke a haiku about wanting to be in the match. He claims the haiku is a type of social media you can use face-to-face with other people. To-y accepted his challenge which means his title defence is now going to be a 5 Way Match.

DDT “ECHIGO CHIN CRUSHER” Results

October 5, 2025

DDT “ECHIGO CHIN CRUSHER”, 05/10/2025
Niigata Higashi Ward Plaza
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: To-y defeated Ilusion with the Kojima Impact (8:32).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki Iino defeated Kazuki Hirata and Naomi Yoshimura when Iino submitted Hirata with the Argentine Backbreaker (9:53).
3. Yukio Naya, Akito & Yuya Koroku defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul when Akito submitted Paul with a Figure 4 Leg Lock (11:46).
4. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & HARASHIMA defeated Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Higuchi pinned Matsunaga with the Claw Slam (10:33).
5. Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated Yuki Ueno & Kazuma Sumi when Masada pinned Sumi with the Masada No Chikara KOBU Mukimuki (10:33).
6. Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON defeated Super Sasadango Machine & Danshoku Dieno (w/ KIMIHIRO) when MAO pinned Sasadango with the Cannonball 450 (13:48).

Don’t let the location fool you, if you take Super Sasadango Machine’s words at heart you’ll believe DDT had no intention to celebrate his homecoming today! At the start of the show Sasadango told the fans DDT didn’t want him to win in the main event today and have no intention of returning to Niigata ever again! His proof is he was forced to take part in a pre-show photo shoot to tire him out before his match. He warned Strange Love Connection that DDT will treat them the same way in about 16 or 17 years time so they should rebel against them like Sasadango & Danshoku Dieno. When MAO & KANON wouldn’t believe him, he and Dieno attacked them and forcefully put a Sasadango mask over KIMIHIRO’s face. The mask brainwashed KIMIHIRO to join their side and he betrayed SLC by kicking both of them in the nuts. DJ Nira of all people ran them off and protected SLC from suffering further harm.

During the main event Sasadango’s team, now called Sasadam revealed more members with Akito interfering while wearing the same looking mask. SLC received reinforcements when To-y and Yuya Koroku ran down to fight alongside them until Kazuki Hirata appeared in a mask to even out the numbers. Sasadango’s team took control until KANON found the courage to strip out of his overalls and give Dieno a Reverse Lip Lock. With him out of the way, MAO went on to pin Sasadango with the Cannonball 450 to end Sasadam’s attempted rebellion. Everyone who was brainwashed by the masks had now recovered including Sasadango himself. He took off his own mask to show remorse for his actions and thanked the fans for watching the main event of a DDT show in Niigata which according to him and MAO is like the second match of a DDT show in Gunma.

The undercard was already changed around because Daichi Sato called in sick but there was another last minute change when Yuki Ishida showed signs of catching a flu and also couldn’t wrestle. Some of the changes meant Kazusada Higuchi now had to team with HARASHIMA instead of Ishida and Jun Akiyama teamed with Tomomitsu Matsunaga instead of Sato. Higuchi got the win for his team but made a comment about needing to take good care of his health while preparing for the KO-D Tag Team Titles match.

DDT “NARAHA TOWN COME ON! ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN ASAKUSA” Results

October 4, 2025

DDT “NARAHA TOWN COME ON! ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN ASAKUSA”, 04/10/2025
Tokyo Asakusa Broadway Shopping Arcade
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Falls Count Anywhere 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida and Kazuma Sumi & Rukiya when To-y pinned Sumi and Rukiya with T.O.Y Totonou Splash ~A Bridge Betwwen Naraha Town And Asakusa~ (34:43).

DDT returned to Naraha Town as part of To-y’s quest to promote the area as an unofficial ambassador as well as to pay off his never ending financial debt towards the local mascot Yuzutaro. Naraha’s deputy mayor also attended the outdoor Falls Count Anywhere Match that saw Kazusada Higuchi wrestle bare foot on the path, Yuki Ueno threaten to throw opponents into nearby shop displays and Yuki Ishida getting powered up by wrestling in front of the entrance of a sumo club. Harimao brought along extra weapons and stacked them up in a castle. Higuchi then crashed the Dramatic Dream bike into it with Ishida pushing behind it. The 37KAMIINA ended up getting the win when To-y climbed a ladder and did a Totonou Splash just like how Shunma Katsumata does it onto Kazuma Sumi & Rukiya, putting both of them through a table in the process. After the match To-y promoted a special bus tour of the area that will be held at the end of next January.
