New Year Lottery, Tokyo Joshi In Korakuen, Tomodachi-gun Takes Over Ganpuro

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita

Konosuke Takeshita pinned Isami Kodaka in the semi-final of the New Year’s Eve Tag Tournament.

Sanshiro Takagi is determined to get rid of KENSO by throwing him into a locker.

Kakizome is the first calligraphy written at the beginning of a year. An artist named Nachu will write a kakizome for the Rumble winner.

It’s probably not a good idea for Saki Akai and Cherry to be teaming together. Cherry has been constantly trying to beat Akai for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title ever since Akai became champion.

5. Yuka Sakazaki Vs Candice LeRae
6. Saki Akamiya Vs Akane Miura (w/ Poison Sawada JULIE)
7. Tokyo Joshi Title: Shoko Nakajima Vs Miyu Yamashita

Before Wrestle Kingdom 10 takes place in Tokyo Dome, there is another wrestling show happening nearby. Tokyo Joshi is in Korakuen Hall for the first time and the main event crowns its first ever champion. Will it be Miyu Yamashita who was there from the beginning of the promotion’s reboot or will Shoko Nakajima add a title to go along with her Tokyo Princess Cup trophy?

The semi-main is filled with mystery. While Saki Akamiya has been unmasked she still denies being Saki Akai. Instead she is convinced she is an evil villain here to destroy. Meanwhile Akane Miura has been adopted as Poison Sawada JULIE’s protege. Is his Snake Magic all that she needs to become more powerful?

Has Candice LeRae ever fought a witch before? She can cross that off her bucket list when she faces Yuka Sakazaki.

6. HARASHIMA, Shigehiro Irie & Ken Ohka (w/ Idei Shiro) defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Antonio Honda & Keisuke Ishii (w/ Kurumi Naruga) when Irie pinned Honda with the Flying Sausage (15:31).

Back in February of this year DDT teamed up with Ring☆Dream for a special sponsored show in Shinjuku FACE. It was such a hit that they put together a second show right at the tail-end of the year in Korakuen Hall.

Sanshiro Takagi’s team were accompanied by model Kurumi Naruga for the main event. She cosplayed as Takagi’s female character from the game. Shigehiro Irie afterwards complained that his team didn’t get a beautiful woman to cosplay as his character. Instead he got Idei Shiro, one of the game’s artists. Amon Tsurumi then stepped in asking for Ring☆Dream to promote a third show with DDT. He also asked for a pretty cosplayer for himself. A third show was promised for next year.

The 5 Way Match consisted of wrestlers who already have characters in the Ring☆Dream game. The prize for the winner was for their character to be voiced by voice actress Noriko Hidaka. Danshoku Dino was originally supposed to participate in the match as his Ring☆Dream character Joshoku Dino after he was brainwashed by the idol unit backdrops but “she” refused to participate. “She” had no motivation to take part due to the amount of men in the match. Joshoku Dino snapped out of the mind control and became Danshoku Dino again. Now he was motivated to be in the match! He also defended the women from backdrops whenever one of the wrestlers criticised them for being old idols (each member is in their 50s). Dino won the match and convinced Makoto Oishi to love backdrops in the process.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions and the Wonder Of Stardom Champion worked great together in the mixed trios match. Io Shirai showed no fear when she had to wrestle with Yukio Sakaguchi. Tetsuya Endo put Kota Umeda away with a Buckle Bomb followed by the Sky Twister Press.

By winning the Battle Royal Akito will be the next wrestler added to Ring☆Dream. When asked what kind of pretty girl he wants his character to be, Akito said he wants her to be the cutest girl with biggest tits, like an F-Cup.

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.

Kendo Kashin wants to defend the DDT Extreme Title in an Amateur Rules match with 3 count pins allowed.

#OhkaEmpire explodes… Kind of. Ken Ohka has been left out of the group’s attempts to win back the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. He and his new buddy HARASHIMA might go their own way if this problem can’t be settled.

Does Ultraman dance? We may see a bunch of Ultramen dance.

2. Saki Akamiya Vs Akane Miura

The event will also feature the debut of three new wrestlers: Yu, Marika Kobashi and Nodoka Onesan.

Yu is 156cm high, was born on 19th July and is from Chiba. She became a fan of DDT when she was in elementary school and took up judo because she was too young to train for pro wrestling. She said it is a dream come true to enter the ring.

Marika Kobashi is 154cm high, was born on 17th May 2001 and is from Kanagawa. She is a fan of Big Japan and wanted to become a wrestler after seeing one of their local events. She is the first signed wrestler in the entire DDT company to be born in the 21st century.

Nodoka Onesan is 145cm high, was born on 7th June and is from Okayama. She became a wrestling fan by reading the manga 1·2 no Sanshirou. Her gimmick will be based on the “Older Sister” trope from Japanese children’s TV shows (Waracchao! on NHK is an example). She hopes this character will attract children to Tokyo Joshi and turn them into fans.

5. Right To 1/4 Tokyo Joshi Title Appearance: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated KANNA with the Crash Rabbit Heat (9:09).

The main event had big consequences for the 4th January title match at Korakuen Hall. Miyu Yamashita defended her spot in the match against her rival from day one, KANNA. Yamashita has beaten KANNA in every singles match they had together and this time was no different. Even with the stuff she learned as part of Biishiki-gun, KANNA was still not good enough to beat Yamashita. The result means the main event of Korakuen is set in stone. Yamashita will take on the Tokyo Princess Cup winner Shoko Nakajima to crown Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first champion!

Nobody expected Poison Sawada JULIE to appear in Tokyo Joshi but that’s exactly what he did agter Match #3. JULIE was here for Akane Miura. He said her recent defeats and failed opportunities were the result of a weak mind. But with his snake magic, Miura can become the strongest in Tokyo Joshi! The other girls tried to convince Miura not to take his offer but JULIE used his snake magic to take over their bodies and forcfully make them leave the ring. Miura accepted JULIE’s help and they left the ring laughing maniacly. Hyper Misao said she will wrestle Akane one on one at Korakuen to save her from JULIE’s grasp.

Three new rookies were introduced today. Yuu and Shio were given an exhibition bout to show off their skills. Yu seems to be power based while Shio has grappling skills. They are joined by Marika who is a Big Japan fan.

Candice LeRae will be on the 4th January show.

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.

Order Of Elimination: Azusa Takigawa, Hyper Misao, Rika Tatsumi, Ai Shimizu, KANNA, MIZUHO, Erin, Akane Miura, Yuka Sakazaki and Nonoko.

Shoko Nakajima is back in the 1/4 Tokyo Joshi Pro Title match after she won the main event Battle Royal. In her victory speech she said when she lost the first spot in the match she considered giving up, but she never gives up! It looks like Nakajima’s place in the match is guaranteed unlike her opponent’s.

KANNA’s resurgence in Tokyo Joshi Pro continued with a pinfall win over Miyu Yamashita in the 6-Woman Tag match. Yamashita nominated KANNA as her next opponent with the title match spot on the line. KANNA said her time spent in Biishiki-gun has taught her everything she needs to beat Yamashita.

At the beginning of the show Sanshiro Takagi called out Saki Akamiya so he could confront Tokyo Joshi’s newest evil force. Akamiya came out with Hyper Misao by her side. She called Takagi an old man and said her goal is to take over Tokyo Joshi and change it to her liking. She tried to attack Takagi with her yoyo amulet but Takagi caught it. He struck Akamiya’s iron mask with the yoyo, splitting it in half. The iron mask fell apart and Akamiya was revealed to be Saki Akai! She said this was the first time she ever felt the wind touch her cheeks. Hyper Misao told Takagi that Saki Akamiya is not the same person as Saki Akai. Takagi kicked her away and said he doesn’t believe it. Misao insisted she was telling the truth and promised Takagi that they will protect Tokyo Joshi from any mighty enemy. Misao handed Akamiya a pair of leather gloves to signify their new alliance. Later in the show they defeated Erin & Rika Tatsumi. Akamiya said she is still a villain who exploits people’s weaknesses. Takagi also gave Misao an apple and some marbles for some reason before kicking her again.

The 1/4 Title Shot changed hands for the second match in a row. Miyu Yamashita has struggled in the past to beat Akane Miura but this time she was able to do it. She said she will never give up and she wants to win the championship at Korakuen Hall.

This show featured the debut match of the mysterious iron masked Saki Akamiya. She appeared holding a yoyo that seems to be of some importance. Hyper Misao was furious to see Akamiya and charged her at the opening bell. Akamiya kicked her with a Big Boot and won the match in 3 seconds. An immediate rematch took place and Akamiya won again in an overwhelming fashion. Misao asked Akamiya who she was. Akamiya said she is here to expose the weaknesses of the people. Her words had some sort of weird effect on Misao because she suddenly begged to join Akamiya’s side! Akamiya left the ring and Misao chased after her.

At the beginning of the show KENSO suddenly appeared at ringside looking for Sanshiro Takagi. The two had wrestled in a feud years ago and KENSO wants to do it again so he came to the show to find Takagi. He was told he was at the wrong show but Takagi would be at DDT in Korakuen Hall on Sunday. KENSO said he will go there and then left.
