DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 OPENING ROUND”, 01/11/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Jun Akiyama Produce Match: Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA Vs Yuya Koroku & Takeshi Masada
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs Yuki Ueno
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Naomi Yoshimura Vs RSP
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs KANON
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yuji Hino Vs Yukio Naya
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs MAO
It is up to some parts of the DDT roster to come up with non-tournament matches for the D-Ou Grand Prix undercards. Jun Akiyama is up first and his idea is to team with HARASHIMA to go against the younger team of Yuya Koroku & Takeshi Masada.
DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN YOKOHAMA DAY 1”, 03/11/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall
1. HARASHIMA Produce Match ~ Blindfold Breastfold Tag Death Match: HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Shunma Katsumata
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Yuki Ueno Vs Joey Janela
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs Daisuke Sasaki
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yuji Hino Vs KANON
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: MAO Vs Yukio Naya
HARASHIMA’s idea is a little more wild. He wants a match where you have to wear blindfolds and try to strip off your opponent’s top! Antonio Honda is well aware of these kinds of matches. Kazuki Hirata and Shunma Katsumata are being dragged into the fun too.
DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN YOKOHAMA DAY 2”, 05/11/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall
1. Yukio Sakaguchi Produce Match ~ 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match: Pokotan & Gota Ihashi Vs Saki Akai, Hideki Okatani & Kazuki Hirata
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs Joey Janela
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Yuki Ueno Vs RSP
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yuji Hino
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs KANON
Even though Yukio Sakaguchi has bigger fish to fry in November, he still took the time to book a match and he isn’t even in it. The other members of Eruption have to team up with Hirata in order to fight the odd pairing of Pokotan & Gota Ihashi in a Handicap Match.
DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN SHINGASHI EXCITING FESTIVAL”, 06/11/2022
Saitama Tobu Tojo Line Shingashi Station West Exit
1. Falls Count Anywhere 4 Way Match: HARASHIMA Vs Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Nabe Yakan
Here’s an extra Falls Count Anywhere match added to the schedule. It is taking place on the street outside Shingashi Station in Saitama. Nabe Yakan returns here for the first time since he lost the KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles last July.
DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN OSAKA”, 12/11/2022
Osaka Edion Arena #2
1. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Produce Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Aja Kong & HARASHIMA
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Yuki Ueno Vs Naomi Yoshimura
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Joey Janela
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs RSP
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs MAO
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs Yukio Naya
If the previous matches aren’t weird enough, here is Aja Kong being added to the mix! Danshoku Dieno wants her to experience Pheromones in the flesh.
DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN KYOTO”, 13/11/2022
Kyoto KBS Hall
1. Saki Akai Produce Match: Saki Akai, Yukio Sakaguchi & HARASHIMA Vs Aja Kong, Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Naomi Yoshimura
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Chris Brookes
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yukio Naya Vs KANON
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yuji Hino Vs MAO
Saki Akai brings things back down to earth a little bit. Beating Kong has been a long time goal for her and the chances to do so shrink away year after year. Can she finally achieve it in Kyoto?

October 5, 2022
The annual D-Ou Grand Prix has been date corrected back to its proper year so the 2022 edition is in fact taking place in the year 2022. A new direction has been given to this year’s tournament. Every entrant is under the age of 40 because DDT is currently building up their younger roster. The format is a two block round robin with the winners of each group meeting in the final. Both blocks contain 6 wrestlers so everybody will compete in 5 matches, each with a 30 minute time limit. The final itself has no time limit. Wins are worth 2 points and draws (time limit or double knockout) are worth 1 point. 0 points will go toward losses, double countouts and any match that is ruled a No Contest or gets cancelled because both wrestlers are unable to compete. In the case of ties for first place, the match result between the wrestlers involved will be used as the tiebreaker. Kenta Kobashi remains in his role as the chairman of the tournament committee.

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Hartley Jackson (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura
It’s been proven that strength and passion on their own is not enough to beat Hartley Jackson. So now it is up to Shuichiro Katsumura to prove that a mixture of skill, speed, stamina and strategy can get the job done. The spotlight is on him as much as it can be because the match is taking place in his hometown. If he wins the Spirit Of Ganbare Title he has already said he wants to give Ken Ohka the first title shot. Katsumura considers Jackson to be a good friend so he offered to take him out for a meal after their match. Jackson loves the idea but is worried Katsumura will have a broken jaw and won’t be able to walk after he beats him. It would be rude if he has to spend the entire meal lying on the floor looking up at Jackson eating and drinking everything.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Kouki Iwasaki Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Last Match: Keisuke Ishii Vs Kouki Iwasaki
Today it’s been announced that Kouki Iwasaki will terminate his contract with Ganbare☆Pro at the end of this year. He is leaving the promotion and will continue wrestling as a freelancer. It is a decision he was thinking about for over a year because he is at his most fulfilled both physically and mentally. He and his wife are also expecting their first child during the new year so he thinks now is the time to move on to fighting new opponents from the outside world. He does not have any specific places where he wants to work other than he wants to be in places where he can grow and step up. His final match as a member of Ganpro is against his friend Keisuke Ishii on 27th December.
Ganpro publicly introduced their current trainee, who comes from the cabaret world. Riara is said to be a “legendary cabaret club girl” from the No. 1 club in Kabukicho. Born in Kurihara City, Miyagi she discovered pro wrestling in 4th grade and once sent in a resume to LLPW. She began working at hostess clubs in Sendai at the age of 19 and moved to Tokyo after the 2011 earthquake. In Kabukicho she achieved many accomplishments within her field and became very popular. However she had always wanted to follow her dream to be a pro wrestler and met with Sanshiro Takagi through a mutual acquaintance. After their meeting, Riara graduated from the cabaret world and in June became a Ganpro trainee. Takagi said Riara has already shown the motivation and passion needed to reach to the top. She still has a way to go before she has a wrestling match but will be able to start doing ringside duties at Ganpro shows soon. Riara grew up as a fan of Atsushi Onita, nWo Japan and Hiroyoshi Tenzan. She would like to be in an Exploding Death Match with Onita. Takagi said he can recommend her to Onita if she debuts and shows she can do well in the ring.

DDT “ROAD TO PETER PAN 2022 IN YOKOHAMA”, 06/08/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall
149 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Yukio Naya defeated Toi Kojima with the Back Drop (7:54).
2. No Tag Rules: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari defeated Akito, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata (w/ Sanshiro Takagi) when Imanari pinned Hirata with the Diamond Cutter (0:22).
2a. Rematch: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari defeated Akito, Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata (w/ Sanshiro Takagi) when Iino pinned Hirata with La Magistral Cradle (10:08).
3. Yukio Sakaguchi & MAO defeated Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku when Sakaguchi submitted Koroku with the Triangle Choke (7:59).
4. Minoru Fujita & KANON defeated Shunma Katsumata & El Unicorn when KANON submitted Unicorn with the Cobra Twist (12:31).
5. Special Single Match: Yuji Hino defeated Makoto Oishi with the Fuckin’ BOMB (10:23).
6. Masahiro Takanashi & Chris Brookes defeated Yuki Ueno & Soma Takao when Takanashi pinned Takao with the Everclear (13:42).
7. Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Hideki Okatani & Yuki Ishida by Knockout when Higuchi gave Ishida the Buchikamashi (19:21).
Positive covid tests during the week resulted in this show getting matches changed several times. Kazusada Higuchi was meant to have his first preview tag match with Tetsuya Endo today but Endo was absent due to covid. Instead Harimao were put against the young generation team of Hideki Okatani & Yuki Ishida. Despite putting up as strong a fight as they could, the youngsters were destroyed by Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura by the end. Ishida couldn’t get up past the 10 count after he was hit with the Buchikamashi so Higuchi was awarded the match by knockout. Higuchi encouraged Ishida to keep going at this level because he will accept a challenge from him anytime. Meanwhile Yoshimura’s advice to Okatani is to stop thinking too much about what to do. He needs to keep it simple and put all of his feelings into his fights.
Yuki Ueno thanked Masahiro Takanashi for nominating him for the DDT Universal Title match on 20th August. It’s a match Ueno has wanted to do many times but something would always stop it from happening. He also wants to become Universal Champion so he can spread DDT across the world and make the company more exciting. Takanashi praised Ueno for his speech and told him only the top wrestlers in DDT can say things like he did. Since Takanashi was outside the ring at this point he saw how funny it is that the challenger is in the ring looking down at the champion in this situation. But that has always been Takanashi’s story and history in DDT. On 20th August he will put that history against Ueno with the Universal Title on the line.
The original plan was for Yuji Hino & Makoto Oishi to team up again but illnesses turned the match into a singles bout between them instead. Hino’s overwhelming power defeated Oishi’s quick thinking and the two stayed in good moods after the match. The two agreed to move their tag team reunion to next week’s show in Chiba. The Ω (Omega) revival will happen after all!
El Unicorn was unmasked by DAMNATION T.A for the second time. This time it was KANON who pulled off the hood right after he submitted him with the Cobra Twist. Hideki Okatani ran in and attacked KANON in response to this. The rest of Eruption entered the ring and challenged DAMNATION T.A for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on 4th September. Even though Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul were not at the show, Minoru Fujita accepted the challenge on their behalf. KANON also nodded in agreement. Backstage Unicorn promised to beat all of DAMNATION T.A to a pulp until he is satisfied!
Match #2 was turned into a Lucha Rules match in tribute to Toru Owashi who was off the show sick with covid. Yumehito Imanari then immediately pinned Kazuki Hirata to win the match. A restart was agreed upon and this time Hirata’s team tried to work in Owashi’s moves. It was all going to plan until the White Briefs Man emerged and gave Hirata a Low Blow. Yuki Iino then added insult to injury by pinning him with La Magistral Cradle, a move Owashi usually wins with.
Sanshiro Takagi attacked the White Briefs Man after the match and unmasked him in the ring. His identity is Keigo Nakamura! Or is it? It turns out he was just a decoy because another White Briefs Man, the original one, ran into the ring and gave Takagi a Low Blow. Danshoku Dieno bragged that the masked man’s identity is still a mystery until 14th August. The only clue people learned today is it’s not Nakamura. Dieno also stirred the pot further by pointing out how suspicious it is that Owashi isn’t here today. Imanari said the people who can’t wait and want to find out now are all premature ejaculators. Takagi forgave Nakamura for his involvement in this stunt and they two of them will spend tomorrow finding out who White Briefs Man really is. Nakamura explained the last thing he remembers is crossing paths with Pheromones and his memory stops there until Takagi unmasked him. He also said he is still rehabilitating his injury so it will be a little while longer until he returns to wrestling. But when he does come back he will be in perfect condition as himself.
The show opening speech was done by HARASHIMA via phone call. He said he is already feeling fine after testing positive with covid.

Both shows this weekend are being changed a lot because of the absences. The new main event in Yokohama is Yuji Hino against Makoto Oishi. The two have a lot of history together as mentioned before.
Harimao’s match against BURNING is now cancelled but the replacement bout still has some significance. It will be the first time Naomi Yoshimura meets Toru Owashi in the ring since leaving DISASTER BOX!

Since the show is so important to Kamifuku, Yuna Manase asked to take part in it.
Mizuki won’t be at the show because she will be in America wrestling for Deadlock Pro.

A press conference was held by DDT and Takeshi Masada was there to talk about his upcoming debut match. The 20 year old said he is grateful to get his first match after only three months of training. He originally applied to be part of DDTeeeen!! while he was still in university but that plan went out the window because of the pandemic. Eventually he took a leave of absence from his studies and successfully applied for DDT’s regular training system. He found out the reason he is facing HARASHIMA is because he was born in the same year HARASHIMA had his debut match. HARASHIMA gave him advice, saying that training for matches and actually wrestling in them are completely different. However he encourages Masada to do whatever he wants without hesitation.

9. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo
The same press conference put the spotlight on Keisuke Okuda’s return to DDT. This is all Yoshimura’s idea because the success he and Kazusada Higuchi are currently achieving reminded him of their time in DNA with Okuda and Kota Umeda. Okuda then turned up the heat by provoking Yukio Sakaguchi. He called him a scared old man and kicked over a table. Hideki Okatani turned over another table in reaction and a brawl started between the two sides. When Sakaguchi grabbed a glass bottle and threatened Okuda with it, staff ran in to break up the fight.
The mystery masked man following Pheromones around is now being called the White Briefs Man by DDT. His identity will be unveiled at Korakuen Hall but DDT wants to figure out who it is before then. Sanshiro Takagi and Hisaya Imabayashi are holding a contest for DDT fans to guess who the White Briefs Man is. The winner who gives the correct answer will get a 10,000 yen Amazon gift voucher as their prize. The voucher was paid for with Imabayashi’s own money.

An unexpected grudge formed recently between Daisuke Sasaki and El Unicorn. The teenage masked wrestler was humiliated at Korakuen Hall last weekend when Sasaki unmasked him. Unicorn wants payback and asked for a match against DAMNATION T.A again. Sasaki is already a the stage where he is considering a Mask Vs Hair match to bring this conflict to a swift and decisive end.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAM TOUR 2022 IN YOKOHAMA”, 25/06/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall
190 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya defeated HARASHIMA & Hideki Okatani when Naya pinned Okatani with the Back Drop (10:02).
2. Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Akito “Cochin” Nishigaki defeated Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Soma Takao when Iino submitted Hirata after the Pheromones Chokoku-No-Mori (12:51).
3. DAMNATION T.A Vs The Iyasareru!: Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda when KANON submitted Honda with the Medusa (13:18).
4. Naomi Yoshimura defeated Yuya Koroku with the Harai Goshi (9:21).
5. BURNING Vs Eruption!: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada when Higuchi pinned Okada with the Brain Claw Slam (10:17).
6. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, MAO, Shunma Katsumata, Toi Kojima & Shinya Aoki defeated Poison Sawada JULIE, Takashi Sasaki, GENTARO, MIKAMI & Thanomsak Toba (w/ Naomi Susan) (c) when Kojima submitted Toba with the Modified Triangle Choke (19:38).
*Legend-gun fails in V2. The 37KAMIINA & Shinya Aoki become the 8th KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Champions!
The allied forces of Shinya Aoki & The 37KAMIINA have defeated Legend-gun to becomes the new KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Champions! It was a big day for Toi Kojima most of all because he was the one to pick up the win. It was a close match all around but the final minutes came down to Kojima and Thanomsak Toba. Kojima had a recent bad experience with kickboxing at Korakuen Hall and things looked like it would be the same here. But Kojima knocked Toba to the mat and locked him into a Triangle Choke for the submission victory. Kojima said he was finally able to take the next step forward and win for The 37KAMIINA. He told Yuki Ueno to use this momentum for the King Of DDT final rounds next month.
Poison Sawada JULIE said he was caught off guard because nobody had ever used towels to counter his magic spells before. He doesn’t care about regaining the 10-Man Tag Titles. Instead he wants a singles match with his long time enemy Sanshiro Takagi! Some of the other members of Legend-gun were more positive over the experience. Takashi Sasaki accepts that their opponents represent the current era of DDT. He wants to get more of a taste of what current DDT is like. MIKAMI congratulates the new champions but if they ever act disgracefully he warns Legend-gun will come back to put them in their place!
King Of DDT semi finalists Kazusada Higuchi and Jun Akiyama faced off in a tag team bout. Higuchi came out on top although it was over Yusuke Okada instead of Akiyama. Higuchi said he knew he would win today. He will beat Akiyama again in the semi finals. He thinks he cannot afford to lose after Akiyama beat Yukio Sakaguchi in Round 1.
Naomi Yoshimura thanked Yuya Koroku for their match but said Koroku is not at the level to beat him yet. He is still too lukewarm. After eliminating HARASHIMA in Round 2, Yoshimura is absolutely confident he will go on to win King Of DDT and become the new KO-D Openweight Champion.
Daisuke Sasaki demanded The Iyasareru/CDK to cancel their challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles because he thinks Antonio Honda is too boring to qualify for a title shot. Sasaki later said the titles aren’t worth much to begin with but even then Honda does not deserve a shot. Honda defended himself and said he only lost today’s match because of a mistake. KANON made him submit to the Medusa, which is the new name of his Just Cobra Twist finisher. Honda promises the title match in Nagoya will be so great it will make everyone in the audience suffer nosebleeds from the excitement.
Before the Pheromones match began, Hisaya Imabayashi wanted to know if Yuki Iino has decided on his next challenger for the DDT Extreme Title. Instead Danshoku Dieno said they would use this match to determine a suitable candidate. After the match Dieno claimed there was nobody worthy of facing Iino for the belt. Suddenly Akito “Cochin” Nishigaki raised his hand and volunteered for the match! The rest of Pheromones were in disbelief and told him he cannot challenge another member while he is in the group. He decided he can then leave Pheromones challenge as just Akito because he loves the Extreme Title the most out of any championship in DDT. Iino accepted the deal and did a pinky swear with Akito before attacking him with the rest of Pheromones joining in. They stripped Akito of his gear and left him beaten in the ring. The title match will happen in Nagoya on 16th July. Backstage Akito said he doesn’t care about Pheromones anymore and instead wants the Extreme Title back to express the pro wrestling that he wants to do.
The mystery foreign wrestler entering DDT next month is Andrew “The Giant” Everett! He is the 175cm tall (although he claims he is 223cm tall) high flying giant of the American indies. He will team with Chris Brookes on 3rd July and will also wrestle on the 7th. Everett was scouted by Konosuke Takeshita recently and received his full endorsement. That is what brings him over to DDT.

The identity of Chris Brookes’ tag partner on 3rd July will be revealed during tomorrow’s show. The clues so far are it is a foreign wrestler but, to my surprise, it is not somebody Brookes is already an acquaintance with. So that means it is not Drew Parker or a Kid Lykos or like 90% of the British wrestling scene for that matter. Brookes himself is trying to find out before the show takes place and is badgering Sanshiro Takagi online to at least send him a LINE message about it. Takagi has also said it is not Joey Janela making an early appearance, meaning it is a sign there are more foreign wrestlers coming to DDT this year.

The four remaining wrestlers in King Of DDT gave their thoughts going into the final rounds. Yuki Ueno wants to use his skills to spread DDT across the world and this tournament is his chance to do that. Naomi Yoshimura credits his size advantage for getting through the first two rounds. He is also letting those results speak for themselves rather than fighting on behalf of the people he has defeated like the others. Kazusada Higuchi wants to win the vacant KO-D Openweight Title and become DDT’s symbol of strength while he waits for Tetsuya Endo to return. Jun Akiyama just said now is the time for DDT to show their strength and he will lead the charge.

8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Saki Akai & Yuki Arai
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi
Rika Tatsumi is excited for her main event match because she gets to fight on the stage of her dreams. She wants to make Shoko Nakajima feel the same way and have a crazy match for the Princess Of Princess Title. Tatsumi is hoping to discover a side of herself she has never seen before. Nakajima senses TJPW is getting momentum and she wants to stay at the forefront of it. She can tell Tatsumi wants to be in the same position so she is really looking forward to the match.
A fresh new challenge has appeared for The Magical Sugar Rabbits, even if there is something vaguely familiar with it. I don’t know, I can’t help but feel like I’ve seen this scenario develop three times already… Yuka Sakazaki thinks the Princess Tag Team Titles are characterized by a wide variety of matches and Mizuki wants to make them even more valuable. Reiwa AA Cannon are fitting opponents for those reasons because it is two high profile women teaming together. Yuki Arai feels blessed to be surrounded by wonderful senpais and wants to make the most out of her opportunities. Winning the Tag Titles is not her ultimate goal in wrestling but is part of the process. Saki Akai thinks she needs to get to know Arai better because this will only be their third time teaming together. Their opponents have been strongly bonded together by friendship for years!

An unusual opening match has been added to the card. On paper it was 3 Vs 2 with Ganbare Tamagawa, Nobuhiro Shimatani & HARUKAZE on one side against Onryo & YuuRI. However Onryo & YuuRI will be joined by a third person. Munenori Sawa will be in their corner. He’s been officially retired from pro wrestling for years now but he’ll find some excuse to get physically involved in the match without breaking his commitment to stay retired.
