DDT “DRAMATIC 2013 JUNE SPECIAL”, 02/06/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

0. Dark Match – Mask Contra Mask: M Samurai Vs M.Samurai
1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi (c) Vs Yuji Hino & Hoshitango

The Monster Army’s big guns are the first team to go after Hikaru Sato & Yukio Sakaguchi for the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

A fake M Samurai is on the loose! Kazuki Hirata had his own custom made El Samurai mask when he joined the Samurai Sentai Samurai Rangers but it went missing and he had to wear a plastic bag with the mask drawn on it over his head ever since. The mask was last seen worn by Samurai TV! personality Miki Motoi but that is no guarantee she is the person Hirata will fight in the Mask Contra Mask dark match.

Cruiser’s Game presents the TOP OF THE DRAMATIC CRUISER one night tournament to celebrate the history of Jr. Heavyweight wrestling. A grand prize of ¥500,000 will be rewarded to the winner. The eight participants were announced today. They are:

Tatsuhito Takaiwa
(2000 Best of the Super Jr. winner, 38th IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, 4th IWGP Jr. Tag Team Champion, 2nd & 12th GHC Jr. Heavyweight Champion)

Tatsuhito Takaiwa has wrestled at three previous Cruiser’s Game shows and is a good friend of MIKAMI away from the ring.

El Samurai
(1997 Best of the Super Jr. winner, 19th & 30th IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, 3rd, 16th & 25th IWGP Jr. Tag Team Champion, 4th J-Crown Champion)

El Samurai is a stalwart of Jr. Heavyweight wrestling. MIKAMI thinks he is a perfect fit for the tournament in both talent and name value.

Katsumi Usuda
(Super J Cup 3rd STAGE participant, 2000 Best of the Super Jr. participant, 3rd & 5th Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion)

Katsumi Usuda probably has the most unique style of wrestling in the tournament. MIKAMI added him to spice things up.

Onryo
(Super J Cup 3rd STAGE participant, 39th UWA World Middleweight Champion)

MIKAMI has a long relationship with Onryo and considers him one of his main rivals.

Kikutaro
(Super J Cup 4th STAGE Special Attraction, 2003 Best of the Super Jr. participant)

Kikutaro is a longtime friend of MIKAMI’s, going back to when they were both young wrestlers unknown to the fans.

Marines Mask
(11th Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion)

MIKAMI wanted someone with Marines Mask’s charm to be in the tournament, so here he is.

Masa Takanashi
(40th KO-D Openweight Champion, 36th UWA World 6-Man Tag Champion)

MIKAMI has kept an eye on Masa Takanashi ever since his debut. He thinks Masa’s wrestling style is perfect for Cruiser’s Game and expects him to deliver some great performances in the tournament.

MIKAMI
(Super J Cup 4th STAGE Special Attraction, 8th & 14th KO-D Openweight Champion)

Naturally, MIKAMI thinks he is going to win the tournament.
