Full DDT Cards For March, Val Venis Vs The Godfather?

March 21, 2013

DDT “JUDGEMENT SERIES 2013 IN SENDAI”, 24/03/2013
Miyagi El Park Sendai

1. HARASHIMA Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. 3 Way Tag Team Match: Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Hikaru Sato & Tetsuya Endo Vs DJ Nira & Michael Nakazawa
3. MIKAMI Vs Gorgeous Matsuno
4. Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi Vs KUDO & Yasu Urano
5. Tsukasa Fujimoto Vs Cherry
6. Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega Vs Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi
7. Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma Vs Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Akito

Shigehiro Irie and Yukio Sakaguchi have their first skirmish in the build up to their KO-D Openweight Title match on 24/3.

USA “STARGATE 2013”, 28/03/2013
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. USA World Tag Team Titles:
2. IC Title – 10th Wonder Of The World:
3. $10,000 Backbreaker Challenge:
4. Hall of Fame Ceremony:
5. Recapturing Elizabeth!? Wrestling Soap Opera Final Match:
6. Japan’s First Elimination Chamber Match:
7. Idea Pocket Presents – ALL or NOTHING: “Val Venis” Vs “The Godfather”

USA has struck a partnership deal with the AV company Idea Pocket. Part of the deal involves Idea Pocket presenting their own match for USA’s first show. It’s becoming very clear at this point that USA will not be a PG promotion. All I can gather is the match will be between “Val Venis” and “The Godfather”. Judging by the translation, it sounds like there are going to be a harem of Val Venises and a ho train of Godfathers taking part in the match.

DDT “BIG HOUSE ARROW HOMETOWN 2013”, 30/03/2013
Toyama Takaoka Coeur

1. 3 Way Match: DJ Nira Vs Masa Takanashi Vs Tetsuya Endo
2. Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi Vs Antonio Honda & Daisuke Sasaki
3. KUDO & Yasu Urano Vs MIKAMI & Akito
4. Yoshiaki Yago & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Michael Nakazawa
5. HARASHIMA Vs Ken Ohka
6. Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi Vs Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma

Sanshiro Takagi, Keisuke Ishii & DJ Nira all risk losing their Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contracts at this show. HARASHIMA not so much.

DDT “OSAKA 24 ZONE TOUR ~ YODOGAWA DISTRICT”, 31/03/2013
Osaka Yodogawa Kumin Center

0. Dark Match: Gota Ihashi Vs Hideki Shiota
1. MIKAMI & Tetsuya Endo Vs Michael Nakazawa & DJ Nira
2. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kiai Ryuuken Ecchan Vs Yuji Hino, Daisuke Sasaki & Shoichi Uchida
3. Yukio Sakaguchi & Akito Vs Masa Takanashi & Makoto Oishi
4. Special 5 Way Match: Kota Ibushi Vs KUDO Vs Danshoku Dino Vs Takao Soma Vs Konosuke Takeshita
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie & Keisuke Ishii
6. DDT Extreme Title – Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match: Kenny Omega (c) Vs A.YAZAWA

Kenny Omega still has the DDT Extreme Title around his waist but he will get another tough defence coming up. A.YAZAWA has the advantage since the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match is his speciality.

DDT “APRIL FOOL 2013”, 13/04/2013
Shinjuku FACE

KO-D Openweight Title: Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi

Sakaguchi presents a fresh challenge not just for Irie but for KO-D Championship matches in general. Hikaru Sato was the last person with a shootfighting background to win and compete for the title. No disrespect to the guy but it looks like Sakaguchi outranks him in that area. However, Sakaguchi has only just recently begun to understand and fit into the crazy world of DDT and he hasn’t faced anyone like Irie. A victory for the new champion would make a strong statement from the get go.

3. Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi & Gota Ihashi Vs Shigehiro Irie, Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma

Yoshiaki Yago’s annual hometown return has him facing off with his eternal rival Sanshiro Takagi.

Ken Ohka is given another chance with DDT while he prepares his next Ganbare☆Wrestling show.

DDT “ROAD TO RYOGOKU 2 DAYS IN SAPPORO ~DRAMATIC DREAM CLOCK TOWER~”, 07/04/2013
Sapporo Teisan Hall

1. KUDO Vs Masa Takanashi
2. Antonio Honda & Yoshihiko Vs Keisuke Ishii & Takao Soma
3. Kenichi Yamamoto & HARASHIMA Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Akito

The MMA invasion continues. Former UFC tournament champion Kenichi Yamamoto will be next to make his DDT debut following Yukio Sakaguchi and Kizaemon Saiga. Yamamoto won the UFC 23 Middleweight Tournament in 1999 but his MMA career plummeted down to a 5-11-2 record. He does have wrestling experience however, winning the WAR World 6-Man Tag Team Title with Yoji Anjo & Yoshihiro Takayama way back in 1996.

Yoshihiko finds itself teaming with a member of the Monster Army. Will it get along with Antonio Honda?

DDT “BIG HOUSE ARROW HOMETOWN 2012” Results

April 14, 2012

DDT “BIG HOUSE ARROW HOMETOWN 2012”, 14/04/2012
Toyama Takaoka Coeur
222 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Takao Soma defeated Tetsuya Endo with the Boma Ye (8:25).
2. Keita Yano defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with the Keichan Bomber (8:17).
3. Insanely Funny Game Series – Round 1: Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi defeated DJ Nira & Daisuke Sasaki when Dino pinned Nira with the Danshoku Driver (13:08).
4. Sanshiro Takagi & Yoshiaki Yago defeated Yasu Urano & Antonio Honda when Yago submitted Honda with the Murder Cobra Twist (13:51).
5. Masa Takanashi, KUDO & Ken Ohka defeated HARASHIMA, Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie when Takanashi pinned Ishii with the Takatonic (20:12).

Sanshiro Takagi and Yoshiaki Yago confronted each other in the ring at the beginning of the show. After some arguing they made a deal. Yago would team with Takagi in the semi-main event. But if they won the match, DDT would never hold another show in his hometown again. They went on to defeat Yasu Urano & Antonio Honda but were persuaded by Urano to continue holding DDT shows in Toyama. It also looks like Yago might be joining nWJ.

After the main event, Ken Ohka invited Masa Takanashi to wrestle a match in Union.

There were some shenanigans going on between Homoiro Clover Z and Ken Ohka during the night. It began when Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi stole Ohka’s ringside banner. Later on, their own banner went missing. Dino was able to reclaim it when he and Oishi defeated Daisuke Sasaki & DJ Nira.
