DDT “SPRING BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 2”, 26/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. Takeshi Masada & Yuni Vs Yuya Koroku & Kazuma Sumi
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Chris Brookes, Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani
3. Tetsuya Endo & Toru Owashi (w/ Furitsuke Kamen) Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
4. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Rukiya
5. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: To-y Vs Ilusion
6. Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya Vs Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Akito, HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
Tsubasa Suzuki was showing fever symptoms so as a precaution he will not be on tomorrow’s show. Takeshi Masada will take his place in what was supposed to be a match for everyone in the D GENERATIONS CUP who was eliminated in Round 1. That also means the 3 Way Tag is now back to being a 6-Man Tag.

DDT “SPRING BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 2”, 26/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. 3 Way Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada Vs Daisuke Sasaki & KANON (w/ MJ Paul) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani
2. Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya Vs Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. D GENERATIONS CUP Tag Match: Yuni & Yuya Koroku Vs Kazuma Sumi & Tsubasa Suzuki
4. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Rukiya
5. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: To-y Vs Ilusion
6. Tetsuya Endo & Toru Owashi (w/ Furitsuke Kamen) Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Akito, HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
The D GENERATIONS CUP semi finals are To-y Vs Ilusion and Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Rukiya. The winners of those matches will meet in the final on 7th April.
The card has been changed around a little bit to add Tomomitsu Matsunaga into the same match as Jun Akiyama since the two of them will be challenging for the KO-D Tag Team Titles soon. One half of the champs Yuki Iino gets to test them out as a team first.
The opening match is also changed from a 6-Man Tag to a 3 Way Tag. Chris Brookes wasn’t booked on the show yet so he gets added here while MJ Paul is relegated from being in the match to standing at ringside for DAMNATION T.A. That’s a bit weird but okay.
DDT “APRIL FOOL 2024 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 30/03/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall
1. Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata & Kazuma Sumi
2. HARASHIMA, Kazusada Higuchi & Akito Vs Yukio Naya, Soma Takao & Yuya Koroku
3. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Jun Akiyama & Rukiya
4. Special Single Match: Hideki Okatani Vs KANON
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Yuni Vs Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Takeshi Masada
6. Special Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & Ilusion Vs Hi69 & Yasu Urano
The Hardcore Match for the DDT Extreme Title gets previewed here when Shunma Katsumata and Hi69 collide in tag team action. Hi69 is bringing along Yasu Urano to form a team straight out of the old K-DOJO days. Katsumata will be teaming with Ilusion. The masked wrestler is gradually getting booked more by DDT which is good to see. This will be a good challenge for him.
The fighting between Hideki Okatani and KANON during the first night of Beer Garden did not stop after their match was over. When they were finally pulled apart Okatani demanded KANON to fight him in a singles match. When the match was confirmed to go ahead, Okatani then went on Twitter and challenged KANON to put his King Of DDT spot on the line. If Okatani wins he takes KANON’s place in the tournament. In return Okatani has an idea for a punishment in mind for himself should he lose. He hasn’t said what it is yet but KANON is intrigued enough to risk gambling his tournament spot away.
GCW/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GCW VS TJPW”, 06/04/2024
Penns Landing Caterers Auditorium, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
1. Suzume Vs Pom Harajuku
2. Session Moth Martina Vs Raku
3. Dark Sheik Vs Yuki Kamifuku
4. Steph De Lander Vs Hyper Misao
5. Shazza McKenzie Vs Arisu Endo
6. Sawyer Wreck & Allie Katch Vs Mizuki & Nao Kakuta
7. Billie Starkz & Janai Kai Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
8. Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Rina Yamashita, Masha Slamovich & Maki Itoh Vs Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino
The GCW Vs Tokyo Joshi Pro full match lineup is here and… uh… yeah… There is an audience out there that’s into this card. I’m not part of it outside of the main event. Maybe the other two top matches as well if everybody involved all click together on the day. I’ll have a preview for the show written up along with one for “TJPW LIVE IN PHILLY” a little after next week. I’ve already written most of it already because so much is happening at the end of March and the start of April.
DDT “APRIL FOOL 2024”, 07/04/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. No Gamble FINAL!: Sanshiro Takagi, Akito & Toru Owashi Vs X
2. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Final: X Vs X
3. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Chihiro Hashimoto
4. DDT Extreme Title – Hardcore Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Hi69
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
6. Dramatic Dream Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & MAO Vs Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes
The reason why Matsunaga was chosen by Akiyama to be his partner is because of his work ethic behind the scenes. Matsunaga only wrestles part-time in DDT nowadays, usually as a substitute for someone who can’t be at the show for whatever reason. However he keeps himself in shape and is always ring ready when he does get called up as a replacement. Akiyama appreciates that and wants to see if that work ethic can be converted into a championship win for them.
DDT “SPOILER FREE SHOW VOL. 1”, 21/04/2024
Kanagawa Tsurumi Fruit & Vegetable Market
1. Different Martial Arts Special Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku Vs Akito Nishigaki & Hayabucha
2. 1 Vs 2 Special Handicap Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
3. Special Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno & Rukiya Vs Yuki Iino & Takeshi Masada
The gimmick for this show is that no information about what happens is allowed to be posted online until after midnight. That won’t be much of a problem for me because where I am I just have to wait until after 4pm local time to start looking up the results. That’s not out of the ordinary for me with the regular show results and reports.
A forbidden in-ring reunion for Danshoku Dieno and Yuki Iino. The two former members of Pheromones will face each other for the first time since the unit’s split back in October of last year.
DDT’s top wrestler of the moment Yuki Ueno has to fight both Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda by himself. Is that really much of a challenge for him though?
Four different athletic backgrounds clash in a “martial arts” tag match. Tetsuya Endo represents rhythmic gymnastics, Yuya Koroku is junior high amateur wrestling, Akito is high school amateur wrestling and HARASHIMA goes back to his college club student pro wrestling roots by becoming Hayabucha again. At least I assume it’s going to be HARASHIMA under the mask here.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO/GANBARE☆JOSHI “SHUFFLE DATE 2024”, 22/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
137 Fans
1. Mahiro Kiryu & Haru Kazashiro defeated Toga & Chika Nanase when Kiryu pinned Nanase with the Spinebuster (9:21).
2. Rika Tatsumi, Runa Okubo & Uta Takami defeated Moka Miyamoto, Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer when Tatsumi pinned Summer with the Twist Of Fate (12:43).
3. HARUKAZE & Kaya Toribami defeated Raku & Shino Suzuki when HARUKAZE pinned Suzuki with the Kaze no Spear (10:10).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & YuuRI defeated HIMAWARI & Riara when Kamifuku pinned Riara with the Famouser (10:45).
5. Yuna Manase & Nao Kakuta defeated Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Manase pinned Hasegawa with the Suzuki Dynamic (13:33).
It was a nice Friday evening when Tokyo Joshi Pro and Ganbare☆Joshi decided to go on a date to Ueno Park together. Three of the matches were tag bouts mixing together wrestlers from the two promotions. The main event was the last chance Nao Kakuta and Yoshiko Hasegawa had to be in the ring against each other. The last time they fought each other Hasegawa turned down Kakuta’s handshake. Since Kakuta is retiring soon she offered her a handshake again and this time Hasegawa accepted it. Kakuta was also happy to team with Yuna Manase again and purposely wore purple to match with her. Shoko Nakajima has heard that fans think she and Hasegawa look similar so she was happy to team up and see for herself. Hasegawa said even though she is leaving CyberFight soon, she is looking forward to wrestling with Nakajima again someday in the future. She wants to become good enough that TJPW will want to book her more often.
Riara got to team with HIMAWARI because the two of them debuted in the same year. Riara made her hair into twintails for the first time in her life to match with her tag partner. She isn’t reaching Yuki Kamifuku’s standards just yet though. Kamifuku heard Riara is a charismatic hostess but thought she acted more like a girl at the snack bar. However she understands Riara will continue to evolve from here. She will also support YuuRI as long as she doesn’t arrive late like she did today. If Kamifuku ever sees YuuRI tweet about being late again, she’s going to block her.
The show concept gave TJPW the rare chance to have two masked wrestlers team up with each other. HARUKAZE was happy not only to team with Kaya Toribami but also wrestle two idols. After discovering first hand that Raku & Shino Suzuki are also strong as well as cute she is now a fan of The Up Up Girls. That’s good news for Suzuki. She thought HARUKAZE would not become a fan based on how hard she hit her with the Spear.

DDT “SPRING BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 1”, 21/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
311 Fans
1. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Round 1: Ilusion defeated Yuni with a Modified Dragon Sleeper (8:32).
2. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Round 1: To-y defeated Tsubasa Suzuki with the Kojima Impact (5:07).
3. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Round 1: Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Kazuma Sumi with a Modified German Suplex (6:50).
4. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Round 1: Rukiya defeated Yuya Koroku with the Proto Bomb (9:12).
5. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul defeated HARASHIMA, Yukio Naya & Hideki Okatani when KANON submitted Okatani with the Ground Cobra Twist (8:47).
6. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino defeated Yoshitatsu & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Iino pinned Matsunaga with the Spear (10:53).
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada defeated Danshoku Dieno, Yoshihiko & Pokotan when Brookes pinned Pokotan with a School Boy (17:19).
8. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated Akito, Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata when Ueno pinned Hirata with the WR (19:22).
As the build begins towards the next KO-D Openweight Title match, Akito believes his mindset behind the preview tag matches is different from Yuki Ueno’s. Sure these kind of matches are done to create buzz and help the wrestlers get into their best condition for the big match. But here Akito is using these matches to try and break Ueno down. He aims to focus on picking Ueno apart limb by limb if he wants any chance of winning the title on26th April. That plan is not off to a good start though. Ueno got the win today and is feeling pretty good about it.
A lot of the semi-main event was spent outside the ring because the two teams decided it was now Falls Count Anywhere. During the brawl Takeshi Masada reversed a van over Yoshihiko and kept the vehicle parked on top of it. Danshoku Dieno filled up an inflatable mini pool at ringside with water, alcohol and any other liquid he could find. He then gave Masada a Back Body Drop into the pool. Yoshihiko returned from underneath the van and did a balcony dive onto SCHADENFREUDE International. After getting soaked in water, Antonio Honda tripped down some steps. Chris Brookes then ended the match by pinning Pokotan next to the steps. SCHADENFREUDE celebrated by taking away Pokotan’s head.
Tomomitsu Matsunaga stepped in as a last minute replacement for Makoto Oishi after Oishi injured his neck yesterday. Although Matsunaga dropped the fall and lost the match against BURNING, his efforts did not go unnoticed. Jun Akiyama decided that Matsunaga will be his partner when he challenges BURNING for the KO-D Tag Team Titles on 7th April! Akiyama later explained Matsunaga does so much good work behind the scenes and keeps himself in good shape for the few times he gets to wrestle. If BURNING defeats those two then they might have to worry about Yoshitatsu next. He is also putting the word out that he wants to win KO-D Tag Titles.
Some beer drinking was done by the wrestlers in Match #5 leading to some different situations. Daisuke Sasaki offered HARASHIMA a beer and then attacked him. They fought out in the crowd where HARASHIMA could get a drink after all. They both got back into the ring with Yukio Naya and MJ Paul for a Sumo contest. KANON used the Cobra Twist to roll Hideki Okatani’s shoulders down on the canvas to pin him for the three count. The two kept fighting after the match and had to be pulled apart. Okatani was still mad so he challenged KANON to a singles match.
The opening round of the D GENERATIONS CUP filled up the first half of the show. Ilusion defeated Yuni by submission in the latest match of their rivalry, To-y beat the intern Tsubasa Suzuki, the Ganbare☆Pro rookie Munetatsu Nakamura eliminated Kazuma Sumi and Rukiya scored an upset win over Yuya Koroku. The semi finals on 26th March will be Ilusion Vs To-y and Nakamura Vs Rukiya.

2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Akito, HARASHIMA & Kota Umeda
3. O-40 Title: Makoto Oishi Vs Azul Dragon
It was discovered today that Makoto Oishi has been stripped of the O-40 Title because it has taken him too long to defend it. DDT has not said what the maximum time period allowed between defences is but Oishi won the belt on 21st March, 2023 and there hasn’t been a title match since. That’s a one day short of an entire year without Oishi defending the title (remember we’re in a leap year). However Oishi is getting a chance to win the title back and become a two time champion. He will have to beat Azul Dragon in a match where the vacant O-40 Title is up for grabs. Oishi is a little annoyed over the decision because 1) he never knew there was a deadline to set up a title defence and 2) Azul Dragon’s age is private so nobody knows if he is even eligible to compete for the championship.
BASARA “BASARA 246 ~UTAGE~”, 30/04/2024

1. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Lil’ Kraken
So far in Minoru Fujita’s title reign he has defended the Union Max Title against Takato Nakano and Masato Kamino, two wrestlers from BASARA’s young generation. Lil’ Kraken paid attention to that connection and came to the conclusion that he should be next to get a title shot. Fujita only accepted his challenge because Kraken has a singles win over The Great Sasauke while he does not. He will not stand for that kind of discrepancy!

6. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Mike Bailey
7. DDT Universal Title – No Rules Match: MAO (c) Vs Billie Starkz
The headline match for Philadelphia is definitely the craziest one on the list. MAO’s current DDT Universal Title reign is inspiring him to go out and set the world ablaze. Billie Starkz will be waiting for him at Wrestlemania Week and might be tempted to outdo whatever MAO comes up with.
Andrew Everett is already saying what the selling point of his match against Tetsuya Endo will be. Who has the better Shooting Star Press?
Last year we got to see Nick Wayne and Takeshi Masada gel together whenever Wayne appeared in DDT. That relationship started in America as opponents and will continue in America this time as a team against DAMNATION T.A.
DDT “APRIL FOOL 2024”, 07/04/2024

2. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Chihiro Hashimoto
3. DDT Extreme Title – Hardcore Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Hi69
4. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Jun Akiyama & X
5. Dramatic Dream Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & MAO Vs Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes
BURNING is now a few months into life without Jun Akiyama guiding them. According to Endo the time is now for he and Yuki Iino to face Akiyama head on. They want to defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against him and anyone else. Akiyama isn’t going to team with anyone else from D.O.A so who could it be? Another wrestler from BURNING’s history? Somebody Akiyama knows from AEW?
At last NOAH is crossing over into DDT a little bit more. Hi69 from the TEAM NOAH unit is interested in challenging for the DDT Extreme Title and will go through a Hardcore Match in order to win it. Shunma Katsumata is a little annoyed at how little Hi69 knows what the championship is all about. It’s more than just your typical Hardcore Title. Also it’s up to the champion to choose the match stipulation. Katsumata is willing to fight on Hi69’s terms to prove his point.
DDT “DDT X ZEEKSTAR TOKYO SPECIAL PERFORMANCE ~ DDZT”, 26/04/2024
Tokyo Sumida Ward General Gymnasium
1. Keigo Nakamura Return Match: Keigo Nakamura Vs X
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Akito
There’s been a specific list of wrestlers Yuki Ueno wanted to defend the KO-D Openweight Title against in order to establish himself as the new ace of the company. He has just one more name to tick off and that is Akito. While the match does not sound like a major contest on paper, Akito is somebody who eats, sleeps and breathes DDT 24/7 while working as the company’s vice president. If beating Ueno for the KO-D Title is what it takes for Akito to prove how much he loves the company more than anyone else then so be it.
D.O.A ended the existence of Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor over the weekend and now find themselves under threat by DAMNATION T.A. Remember, the current KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions made a deal with each other to disband once they lose the titles. It could happen here.
After being out of action with injury for almost a year, Keigo Nakamura will return to the ring a the end of April. Hopefully he got his right knee sorted this time because it’s an injury that has hampered his wrestling career right when it started to pick up.
DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2024”, 21/07/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
1. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs X
There will be a couple more KO-D Title defences going on between April and July so who knows who will be the defending champion when DDT returns to Sumo Hall.
Both Konosuke Takeshita and El Desperado will be on the show.

1. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Mahiro Kiryu Vs Uta Takami
2. Kaya Toribami Vs Kira Summer
3. Maki Itoh & Shino Suzuki Vs Moka Miyamoto & Chika Nanase
4. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Suzume, Arisu Endo & HIMAWARI
5. Wakana Uehara & Toga Vs Haru Kazashiro & Runa Okubo
6. Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Shoko Nakajima Vs Miu Watanabe, Yuki Kamifuku & Nao Kakuta
This will be the last proper Tokyo Joshi Pro show before “GRAND PRINCESS ’24” at the end of the month. There’s a few small scale sideshows coming up but this is pretty much the go home show. So it’s the final chance for Miyu Yamashita and Miu Watanabe to square off in non-title action as well as Yuki Aino against Daisy Monkey.
The show also has some returns. Maki Itoh will be back from America as the brand new GCW Extreme Champion. Also Runa Okubo has her first match since the start of January.
Hyper Misao is still out of action with a lower back injury. She hasn’t been booked for either of the side TJPW shows coming up so her return will be at Sumo Hall.
DDT “DDT GOES PHILADELPHIA!”, 04/04/2024
Penn’s Landing Caterers Auditorium, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
1. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Kid Lykos Vs Bryan Keith & Shota
2. Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yoshihiko
3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Shunma Katsumata
4. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Mike Bailey
Two more matches added to the DDT USA show. The big one is Konosuke Takeshita facing his old buddy Shunma Katsumata! Last year’s show was a chance for Takeshita to see what Yuki Ueno is like without him. Now it is Katsumata’s turn to step up to him.
A CCK reunion is on the card! Chris Brookes & Kid Lykos are back together for a match against the wild card pairing of Bryan Keith & Shota.
DDT “EARLY SUMMER BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 2”, 17/05/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. Danshoku Dieno Birthday Eve Commemorative Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs X
Two Beer Garden shows will be happening right before Danshoku Dieno’s birthday. He is getting a special match on the second show to celebrate it.
GLEAT/DDT “GLEAT VER. &”, 06/06/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
This was announced earlier today during the GLEAT show at Korakuen Hall. Their 6th June show at the same venue will be a collaboration with DDT wrestlers. I’ll wait and see how much of the show will be built around GLEAT Vs DDT matches.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2024 ~27TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 17/03/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. “Intern Wrestler” Tsubasa Suzuki Debut Match: Soma Takao Vs Tsubasa Suzuki
2. Yuya Koroku Return Match: To-y, Ilusion & Rukiya Vs Yuni, Yuya Koroku & Kazuma Sumi
3. Toru Owashi & Gorgeous Matsuno Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Kawamatsu
4. SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda Vs Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul
5. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Yoshitatsu
6. Special Single Match: Super Sasadango Machine Vs Akito
7. Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Ken Ohka
8. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Yuma Aoyagi
9. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Belt Contra Dissolution: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi (c) Vs Kazuki Hirata, Naruki Doi & Shinya Aoki
10. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Ryuki Honda & Yuma Anzai
11. DDT Extreme Title – Painful Jungle Death Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Hideki Okatani
12. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) Vs Takeshi Masada
13. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs HARASHIMA
Over the weekend Super Sasadango Machine noticed something. He is on the poster for this show but hasn’t been booked for a match yet. He thought he was going to be on the show anyway because DDT is celebrating its 27th anniversary so he kept his busy schedule free for that day. Akito used his vice president duties to look into it and apologized when he found out that DDT did indeed forget to book Sasadango for the show. To make up for it one more match has been added to the 5 hour show and Akito himself will be Sasadango’s opponent. Now Keisuke Ishii is also getting booked in order to take Akito’s original spot in Match #3. Sasadango has since showed his appreciation to Akito for owning up o the mistake and apologized for giving him extra work to do. So for the first time ever we’re getting a wrestling match where the buildup involves both wrestlers constantly apologizing to each other.
BASARA “BASARA 244 ~UTAGE~”, 19/03/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Isami Kosaka Vs Kazusada Higuchi
2. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Masato Kamino
At the last BASARA show the top two members of Sento Minzoku challenged Harimao for the IRON FIST Tag Team Titles. The match cannot happen just yet because Minoru Fujita is already scheduled to defend the Union MAX Title and he does not want to take part in another championship bout on the same show. So instead Isami Kodaka will face one-half of the champions Kazusada Higuchi in a singles match to give fans a preview of the full course.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BALLO BALLO ~ IT’S A BATTLE SHOW~”, 20/03/2024
Shinjuku FACE
1. Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs HIMAWARI & Haru Kazashiro
2. Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Toga
3. Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto Vs Shoko Nakajima & Wakana Uehara
The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) are holding their own event that is a mixture of both wrestling matches and a concert. All currently active members will be involved. The management group behind the unit has already said Hikari Noa will not be at the show. She is gradually being mentioned or shown on promotional material again so to me that is a small but positive sign towards her eventually coming back. I think her future will be more clear next month after “GRAND PRINCESS ’24” and the American shows are out of the way. We’re more likely to see her in public again before Kate Middleton that’s for sure.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO/GANBARE☆JOSHI “SHUFFLE DATE 2024”, 22/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. Mahiro Kiryu & Haru Kazashiro Vs Toga & Chika Nanase
2. Rika Tatsumi, Runa Okubo & Uta Takami Vs Moka Miyamoto, Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer
3. HARUKAZE & Kaya Toribami Vs Raku & Shino Suzuki
4. Yuki Kamifuku & YuuRI Vs HIMAWARI & Riara
5. Yuna Manase & Nao Kakuta Vs Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa
All of the Ganbare☆Joshi wrestlers have been booked already so the remaining card is filled with just Tokyo Joshi Pro girls.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE IN PHILLY”, 05/04/2024
Penns Landing Caterers Auditorium, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
1. Hyper Misao Vs Billie Starkz
2. Shoko Nakajima Vs Rhio
3. Yuki Aino & Raku Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Viva Van
4. Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Nao Kakuta & Zara Zakher
5. Mizuki & Vert Vixen Vs Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
This is the complete TJPW card you’re going to get in Philadelphia. Hmmm… I’m not that hot on it to be honest. If last year’s USA show was comparable to a Korakuen Hall show this one is more Ryogoku KFC Hall. I guess they’re a bit more conservative this time around because they have the second show with GCW the day after.
Speaking of GCW, Maki Itoh won the GCW Extreme Title in a 6 Way Scramble match on Saturday night! I’ll write more about it in the next DDT Around The World article at the end of the month.
BASARA “BASARA 245 ~YOKOHAMA STORY~”, 20/04/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall
1. IRON FIST Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita
We’ll have to wait until the latter half of April for the IRON FIST Tag Title match to happen.

10. DDT Extreme Title – Painful Jungle Death Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Hideki Okatani
11. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) Vs Takeshi Masada
12. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs HARASHIMA
The Painful Jungle Death Match will feature dangerous items placed on or covering over each of the turnbuckle corners, turning the ring into a painful jungle! Shunma Katsumata hasn’t said what the weapons are and is keeping it quiet. It’s all up to Hideki Okatani and the fans to imagine what hazards he would put inside a “painful jungle” ring. Other death match weapons will be available to use in the match too.
DDT “SPRING BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 1”, 21/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada Vs Danshoku Dieno, Yoshihiko & Pokotan
The Beer Garden show gives DDT an opportunity to stick three of their most iconic wrestlers together. Danshoku Dieno, Yoshihiko & Pokotan are going to join forces and become an unstoppable juggernaut for SCHADENFREUDE International to fight in a battle for the ages.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO/GANBARE☆JOSHI “SHUFFLE DATE 2024”, 22/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. HARUKAZE & Kaya Toribami Vs Raku & Shino Suzuki
2. Yuki Kamifuku & YuuRI Vs HIMAWARI & Riara
3. Yuna Manase & Nao Kakuta Vs Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa
There will be five matches in total for the Tokyo Joshi Pro and Ganbare☆Joshi collab show. The matches so far are mixing TJPW and GanPro together. Wakana Uehara, Toga and Haru Kazashiro will be on the show and are waiting to find out what their matches are. Sayuri Namba will be the ring announcer for the show. Sadly that means Michiko Nonaka won’t be there to represent the GanJo side.
DDT “SPRING BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING – DAY 2”, 26/03/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: Winner Of Match 1A Vs Winner Of Match 1B
2. D GENERATIONS CUP 2024 – Semi Final: Winner Of Match 1C Vs Winner Of Match 1D
3. Tetsuya Endo & Toru Owashi (w/ Furitsuke Kamen) Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
Last year’s Beer Garden show saw the return of Furitsuke Kamen (aka Lucky Ikeda) to DDT. Looks like the Beer Garden shows are where he’s going to stay whenever he and DDT work together.
DDT “APRIL FOOL 2024 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 30/03/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall
1. Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata & Kazuma Sumi

The week before Yuki Ueno & MAO face Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes in Korakuen Hall, the two of them get to fight Brookes in a 6-Man Tag Match in Yokohama.
It’s been a long time since Danshoku Dieno & Antonio Honda teamed together. September 2021 was the last time if I got the Cagematch profiles correct.
DDT “DDT GOES PHILADELPHIA!”, 04/04/2024
Penns Landing Caterers Auditorium, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
1. Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yoshihiko
2. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Mike Bailey
Did the announcement of Kazuki Hirata Vs Yoshihiko in Philadelphia not do anything for you? Then how about Yuki Ueno against Mike Bailey in a first time singles match between the two?
TOKYO JOSHI PRO/BASARA “GAISEN SAKURA PRO WRESTLING”, 14/04/2024
Okayama Shinjo Village Outdoor Ring
The day long event will have BASARA matches in the late morning and TJPW matches in the afternoon. So I may split this into two separate shows when writing about them.

It’s been two years since the last Tokyo Joshi Pro show at Itabashi Green Hall. Even then they only had one show there that year and it was a fan club event. They have a number of wrestlers now who will wrestle in the venue for the first time.
BASARA “BASARA 244 ~UTAGE~”, 19/03/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Masato Kamino
The Union MAX Title match between Minoru Fujita and Masato Kamino is now confirmed to happen on 19th March. Kazusada Higuchi will also be on the show so maybe there will be an Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match too.

With Yoshiko Hasegawa and Riara both leaving GanPro soon they get a chance to wrestle each other while still part of the Ganbare☆Joshi division.

Also returning for a GanPro appearance soon is Kouki Iwasaki! He left the promotion at the end of 2022 to go freelance. This will be his first match in GanPro since back then.
Hartley Jackson & HARUKAZE teaming up again means it’s the return of the Lethal Weapon tag team!
The final GanPro match for both Hasegawa & Riara will be a tag match against Yuna Manase & Banny Oikawa.

5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Miu Watanabe
So let’s get this straight. Yuka Sakazaki graduated from TJPW in December, hasn’t wrestled a match anywhere else since for whatever reason and is now going to make a special appearance to compete at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”? Yeah, beats me what’s going on or what she will do there. Mizuki wants to team with her again and is scared over the idea it won’t happen. Sakazaki helped train Juria Nagano so she can say goodbye to her there. What if Sakazaki wants to get in the ring with Masha Slamovich again? Or maybe she wants to fight Andreza Giant Panda while she still has the chance.
