*V6 for the Golden Lovers.

With Sumo Hall out of the way and Super Saitama Arena far off in the horizon it is back to business as usual for DDT. Fresh off of winning the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles, today Team Dream Futures went after the KO-D Tag Team Titles. But the Golden Lovers were not going to let go of their belts so easily. Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega secured another successful defence of the title when they pinned Soma Takao with the PK Mind. They now want to have their next defence at Korakuen Hall. In a backstage interview Kenny said the Golden Lovers are an S-Rank tag team. He his happy to be with Ibushi not just for the fans but for their friendship too. He even said if he was gay he would want to marry Ibushi. He asked Kota if he felt the same and Kota answered “Of course!”

The other highlights of the day centred around the KO-D Openweight Title No. 1 Contender tournament. Keisuke Ishii defeated Akito and Tetsuya Endo defeated Konosuke Takeshita to advance to the finals. The latter result is a surprise and shows that Endo is not to be overlooked when it comes to discussing about DDT’s future prospects. Ishii bragged about the statistics being in his favour for the final since nobody in this tournament has ever beaten him in a singles match. Endo told him he has the momentum and he will become KO-D Champion.

Retired All Japan whipping boy Nobutaka Araya was in attendance and even got involved in the Smile Squash Vs Toru Owashi & DJ Nira match. Nira gave him the Rocket Punch and HARASHIMA capitalised on the distraction to roll up Nira for the win. I’m not sure if they played Araya’s sad song for him after the match.

Up Up Girls singer Ito Maki wrestled in the Infomercial Match. Makoto Oishi was happy to team with her but their opponent Sanshiro Takagi claimed Saki Akai is the cuter idol. Maki had the last laugh when she spat Poison Mist into Kazuki Hirata’s face and, after Oishi’s Miracle Ecstasy, pinned him with the Idol Clutch.

Antonio Honda and Daisuke Sasaki both wrestled in bras during their 3-Way match with MIKAMI.

Zeus will come in to challenge Danshoku Dino for the DDT Extreme Title in Osaka on 13th September.

DDT “UP UP DDT ~ UP UP GIRLS VS HOMOIRO CLOVER Z VOL. 1” Results

DDT “UP UP DDT ~ UP UP GIRLS VS HOMOIRO CLOVER Z VOL. 1”, 19/02/2014
Shinjuku FACE
512 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. KUDO defeated Akito with the Diving Double Knee Drop (5:20).
2. Kota Ibushi defeated Up Up Machine (w/ Up Up Girls & Shogun KY Mana) with the Sit Down Last Ride (7:39).
3. Makoto Oishi & Isami Kodaka defeated Danshoku Dino & Hiroshi Fukuda when Oishi pinned Fukuda after the Zan Isamu Leg from Kodaka (12:14).
– Bonus Match: Up Up Machine (Sanshiro Takagi) defeated Up Up Machine (Kazuki Hirata) with the Sit Down Himawari Bomb (?:??).

DDT co-promoted a show with the Up Up Girls for a show that featured wrestling and musical performances. The event focused on the feud between the Up Up Girls and Homoiro Clover Z. The idols brought in some wrestlers to fight on their behalf. They were the mysterious Up Up Machine, Isami Kodaka and in a surprising betrayal Makoto Oishi! Danshoku Dino was shocked to learn that Oishi was a spy for the Up Up Girls all along! Hiroshi Fukuda stepped up to team with Dino to wrestle Kodaka & Oishi in the main event.

Kota Ibushi had to face the Up Up Machine, the secret weapon in a Strong Machine mask who was accompanied by the Up Up Girls. All of the girls except one also wore similar Super Strong Machine masks. The one who didn’t was dressed up as Shogun KY Wakamatsu. Some of the DDT fans in the audience quickly figured out Up Up Machine was Kazuki Hirata. The girls attacked Ibushi with paper fan whenever he was outside the ring but he was able to grab one of the fans and use it on Machine. Ibushi went on to beat Machine and Dino laughed at the loser afterwards.

Another Up Up Machine appeared after the main event to confront the first Machine. He ripped off the guy’s mask to reveal it was Kazuki Hirata and then challenged him to a match. During the match the new Machine was unmasked to reveal it was Sanshiro Takagi! Takagi beat Hirata and afterwards said he is so rejuvenated from the show that just happened he now feels like he is 20 years old. He hopes DDT and Up Up Girls will joint promote a show again some time.
