6. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Isami Kodaka & FUMA (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Masato Shibata

Shuji Ishikawa has chosen U-File Camp fighter Masato Shibata as his partner for the UWA World Tag Team Title match. Ishikawa said there are now less big guys in wrestling than there used to be and what’s better in pro wrestling than big guys colliding into each other? So he has picked someone similar in size to himself to be his teammate.

Mio Shirai admitted she doesn’t know a lot about her next challenger Aoi Ishibashi. However, overcoming the odds is what a champion does so Shirai is willing to take the risk of not studying Ishibashi before their match.

7. DDT Extreme Title – No Rope Escape Match: Akito (c) Vs Makoto Oishi

Akito’s reign of technical wrestling over the DDT Extreme Title now brings him into a match where rope escapes are not in effect. He and Makoto Oishi will have to rely on other means to avoid submission holds. Or maybe they both have a few moves up their sleeve that would benefit from rope usage.

9. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Kota Ibushi

Super Sasadango Machine’s opponent for Saitama Super Arena (the Community Arena, not the giant stadium) is none other than Kazushi Sakuraba! Sasadango’s only knew beforehand that he was getting a “super-heavyweight” opponent. Both men are said to be enthusiastic about the match.

Details have emerged for DDT’s newest… championship? Accomplishment? Reward? Whatever it is, the King Of Dark Title is only defended in dark matches and the first champion will either be Gota Ihashi or DJ Nira. However, the first champion will be whoever loses the match. For you see, the King of Dark is forced to wrestle only in dark matches until they win. Victories by the champion is what causes title changes so I assume defeats count as title defences. It is the championship nobody wants unless you want to wrestle early!

UNION “UNION 9TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE” Results

November 3, 2014

sato-fuma

UNION “UNION 9TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 03/11/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall
217 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Ladybeard defeated Ryu Gouma with the Women’s Liberation (2:34).
2. Seiya Morohashi & Gabaiji-chan defeated Cherry & Meari Naito when Gabaiji-chan pinned Cherry with the Gabai Bomb (10:09).
3. Kazushi Miyamoto defeated Tomoya Kawamura with a Lariat (4:08).
4. Goro Jr. defeated Mitomi Masayuki with a British Submission (16:01).
5. Shuji Ishikawa defeated Mio Shirai with the Splash Mountain (6:46).
6. MEN’S Teioh & Madoka (w/ Hiroshi Fukuda) defeated Daichi Kazato & SAGAT when Madoka pinned SAGAT with the Ranhei (11:57).
7. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Isami Kodaka & FUMA (c) defeated Hikaru Sato & Shibata when FUMA pinned Sato with an Armbar Cutback (18:26).
*V2 for Isami Kodaka & FUMA.

The UWA World Tag Team Champions successfully defended their title with a surprising finish when FUMA pinned the Union MAX Champion, Hikaru Sato. Sato’s partner Shibata fought with his GoPro camera strapped to him as always but this time he used it as a weapon. It eventually backfired when he swung it at FUMA but wound up hitting Sato instead. Sato almost stole the win when he was given a German Suplex by FUMA but recovered quick enough to lock on an Armbar. But FUMA rolled on top of Sato and pinned him while still in the submission hold. Sato attacked FUMA after the bell but he was chased away by Daichi Kazato and SAGAT. FUMA told Sato that he was a champion and his title is not an amateur belt. He then threw out a challenge for the Union MAX Title. Naomi Susan confirmed the match will happen on 17th December. FUMA then said he hopes Union will begin its tenth year with him as the champion.

Hiroshi Fukuda gave a lot of praise to MEN’S Teioh & Madoka for their victory over Daichi Kazato & SAGAT. Fukuda said their combination of technique and speed made them the best tag team around and they should reform the Men’s Club. Madoka rejected the idea and wanted to talk to Naomi Susan. Madoka was upset at Union because they no longer do any Aipoke Presents matches! The only reason he is in Union is so he can wrestle for the Idea Pocket idols that used to appear on the show. According to him, the Aipoke matches were the pinnacle of Union. Susan said it is impossible to bring it back because their relationship with the company ended months ago. Madoka stormed off and said he will bring Idea Pocket back himself if he has to!

Kazushi Miyamoto recently announced he will retire at the end of the year. But he still had time to wrestle in Union before he left. He had plenty of advice to give Tomoya Kawamura after their match. He said Tomoya should eat plenty of rice and gain plenty of protein every day. He then bonded with Seiya Morohashi over their bodies and they decided to team up. They already have a team name. They are called Kazushi’s GYM Bodybuilding Circle.

A minute of silence was given at the beginning of the show for Koichiro Kimura.

Ladybeard’s new finisher called the Women’s Liberation is a Spin Kick.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKOHAMA FIRST CHARGE!” Results

November 3, 2014

yamashita-kanna

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKOHAMA FIRST CHARGE!”, 03/11/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall
206 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Akane Miura defeated Erin with the Bankyuppan (3:59).
2. Chikage Kiba defeated Yuka Sakazaki with a School Boy (5:58).
3. Nonoko defeated Ai Shimizu with the Oppai Ye (7:14).
4. Saki Akai defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Face Kick (6:30).
5. Miyu Yamashita defeated KANNA with the Crash Rabbit Heat (6:17).

In a rematch from the very first Tokyo Joshi Pro main event, Miyu Yamashita once again defeated KANNA. While Yamashita did her victory dance, KANNA was reduced to tears from losing to her again. Yamashita thanked KANNA and encouraged her to work hard so they can both be loved by the fans and make Tokyo Joshi a bigger place. Nonoko interrupted Yamashita’s promo and took exception to Yamashita calling herself the ace of Tokyo Joshi. Nonoko said she is the ace and she won the Tokyo Princess Cup to prove it. She brought in Akane Miura, said their team has now officially begun and their name is Bust Deluxe. Miura then challenged Yamashita to a match, calling her a stepping stone in the process. Yamashita did not give an immediate answer. Instead Erin came to her aid and said they will fight Bust Deluxe together. The tag match was made for 22nd November.

To say Shoko Nakajima had a size disadvantage against Saki Akai would be an understatement. Akai towered over Nakajima and even played with her by raising her hand to high for Nakajima to reach during the opening lock up. Even though at times Akai acted like the gritty veteren putting a rookie in her place, she hugged Nakajima after the match and praised her for a good performance.

Yuka Sakazaki wrestled in a Halloween costume and had a pumpkin bag filled with candy with her. She threw the candy at Chikage Kiba after she lost to her, then neatly picked up the candy and put it back in her bag.

Akane Miura’s Canadian Backbreaker finisher is now called the Bakyuppan.

Dino & Oishi Find An X, Union 9th Anniversary

November 1, 2014

DDT “ROAD TO SAITAMA SUPER ARENA 7”, 02/11/2014
Saitama Industrial Technology Centre

1. 3 Way Match: MIKAMI Vs Masa Takanashi Vs Daisuke Sasaki
2. Akito Vs Gota Ihashi
3. Antonio Honda Vs DJ Nira
4. KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Kota Ibushi & Shunma Katsumata
5. Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & X Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Kazuki Hirata & Saki Akai
6. HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano Vs Soma Takao & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie

Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi are back to bringing in a secret wrestler to team with them. In the past year they’ve teamed up with Kensuke Sasaki and Aja Kong.

UNION “UNION 9TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 03/11/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Ladybeard Vs Ryu Gouma
2. Mitomi Masayuki Vs Goro Jr.
3. MEN’S Teioh & Madoka (w/ Hiroshi Fukuda) Vs Daichi Kazato & SAGAT
4. Cherry & Meari Naito Vs Seiya Morohashi & Gabaiji-chan
5. Shuji Ishikawa Vs Mio Shirai
6. Kazushi Miyamoto Vs Tomoya Kawamura
7. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Isami Kodaka & FUMA (c) Vs Hikaru Sato & Shibata

There was a press conference to promote the UWA Tag Team Titles match with the champions Isami Kodaka & FUMA and one half of the challengers Shibata appearing. Shibata decided to strip off his clothes and spent the rest of the conference only wearing a g-string. He did it because his absent tag partner Hikaru Sato apparently sent him a letter telling him to do so. It’s probably not so weird when you remember Sato used to wrestle in maid’s clothing.

Mio Shirai has challenged Shuji Ishikawa to a singles match! After winning the Union Fly To Everywhere Championship, Shirai wants to step up her game and face a great challenge. There is no greater challenge in Union than Shuji Ishikawa. They were on opposite teams at the last Union show and Shirai has studied that match for preparations. She knows to avoid the Splash Mountain after seeing Cherry take one in the previous match. But she also thinks there is a way to counter it with a pinning cradle. According to her, Ishikawa has a low supply of blood in his brain due to his size so she should focus attacking his head and neck.

The “Japanese Million Dollar Man” comes to Union. Kazushi Miyamoto from Wrestle-1 (at least that is where I last saw him) will be facing rookie Tomoya Kawamura.

DDT “YOKOHAMA TWILIGHT 2013 ~AUTUMN~” Results

October 5, 2014

nira-irie-sakaguchi

DDT “YOKOHAMA TWILIGHT 2013 ~AUTUMN~”, 05/10/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall
336 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Goodbye Pigging: Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated Michael Nakazawa, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Gota Ihashi when Takeshita pinned Nakazawa with a German Suplex (11:40).
2. 3 Way Match: Shigehiro Irie defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & DJ Nira when Irie submitted Nira with a Chinlock (0:07).
2a. 3 Way Rematch: Shigehiro Irie defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & DJ Nira when Irie submitted Nira with an Osaekomi (0:03).
2b. Another 3 Way Rematch: Shigehiro Irie defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & DJ Nira when Irie submitted Nira with a Hadakajime (5:04).
3. Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao defeated Akito & MIKAMI when Takao pinned Akito with the Gin And Tonic (11:24).
4. Next KO-D Tag Team Title Challengers Match: KUDO & Masa Takanashi defeated Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki when KUDO pinned Sasaki with the Diving Double Knee Drop (14:26).
5. Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata when Hirata pinned Katsumata with the Viagra Driver (5:57).
6. Isami Kodaka & FUMA defeated HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano when FUMA pinned Urano with the Sobat Kick (18:57).

The main event of today’s show was a DDT Vs Union crossover battle. HARASHIMA and Isami Kodaka got to test each other out before the big KO-D Openweight Title match at the end of the month. However it was FUMA and Yasu Urano who were involved with the finish. FUMA pinned Urano while Kodaka wiped out HARASHIMA with a Suicide Dive outside the ring. Kodaka complimented FUMA with a “Well done!” after the match. Kodaka then said he and FUMA are a much better team than Smile Squash because they are the UWA World Tag Team Champions. He thanked the fans for the 689 votes he got in the DDT Dramatic General Election that granted him his title shot.

KUDO & Masa Takanashi earned a KO-D Tag Team Title shot when they beat Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki. The title match will be in Sapporo on 12th October. The champions Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo watched the match from a corner of the venue and approached their next challengers. Takeshita said as the future of DDT he and Endo will not lose to Shuten-dōji. Instead they will use Shuten-dōji as a stepping stone. Endo said he will have raise a toast with protein when they win. Takanashi warned that they were making a big mistake. KUDO said he has won the KO-D Openweight and KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as part of Shuten-dōji. He now cherishes the chance to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

Kazuki Hirata failed to appear with his teammates for the semi-main event. It was explained that Hirata is suffering from Magnum Syndrome and one of the side effects is being unable to enter ringside without his theme music. Danshoku Dino, Makoto Oishi & Shunma Katsumata took advantage and overwhelmed the remaining T2Hide wrestlers until “Tokyo GO!” was finally played. Hirata came to the rescue, fueled by his song. That was the deciding factor and T2Hide came out on top.

Soma Takao gained a lot of momentum for his upcoming DDT Extreme Title match against Akito. Takao pinned the champion in a tag team match and afterwards looked like he was going to steal his belt. Instead Takao placed it on Akito’s defeated body.

Shigehiro Irie did quick work to win the 3 Way Match. Very quick work actually. He submitted DJ Nira with a Chinlock before Yukio Sakaguchi could even enter the ring. Amon Tsurumi said felt the result was not a good way to commemorate Sakaguchi becoming fully affiliated with DDT so he ordered the match to restart. Irie then submitted Nira again even faster than the first time. The match restarted again and both Irie and Nira wrestled away from ringside with Sakaguchi chasing after them. They eventually returned on a pallet truck that was wheeled down to the ring. Nira hit Sakaguchi with the Rocket Punch and taunted him until Irie snuck up and submitted Nira one more time.

For their last match as a unit, Pigging promised to wrestle fair and square in the opening match. They then ambushed Happy Motel before the bell rang. The plan didn’t work and Michael Nakazawa was pinned by Konosuke Takeshita. After the match Gota Ihashi told Amon Tsurumi that they lost because the other team had great luck so Pigging will not disband. Tsurumi was against the idea but asked if Nakazawa and Tomomitsu Matsunaga really wanted the unit to continue. Matsunaga laughed and said he it was a good unit apart from everybody in it. They all agreed to disband Pigging.

The Smile Squash produced Korakuen Hall show on 12th November will be called “I WANT TO SEE THE SMILES OF EVERYONE”. One of the matches planned is involves Tomomitsu Matsunaga taking up his DDT Sumo King role again.

Farewell Pigging, we hardly knew you. The unit has been forced to disband after they finished last in the DDT Dramatic General Election. This weekend they have one more match together against Happy Motel. But this is something like the fifth time Michael Nakazawa & Tomomitsu Matsunaga were forced to split up so they’ll probably be teaming up again in the future.

1. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Soma Takao

UNION “GOLDEN UNION IN YOKOHAMA” Results

April 27, 2014

worldmensclub-uwatag

UNION “GOLDEN UNION IN YOKOHAMA”, 27/04/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall
288 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Seiya Morohashi & Ladybeard defeated Mio Shirai & SAGAT when Ladybeard pinned SAGAT with the Nut Cracker (9:41).
2. Idea Pocket Offer Match: Ryu Gouma & Daichi Kazato defeated Madoka & Tomoya Kawamura when Gouma pinned Kawamura after hitting him with a Statute Book (6:06).
3. Shuji Ishikawa defeated Yumehito Imanari by Referee Stoppage with a Knee Strike (7:50).
4. Ken Ohka defeated Cherry with the Spear Of Flame (6:55).
5. Isami Kodaka defeated Mitomi Masayuki with the Zan Isamu Leg (12:27).
6. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Hiroshi Fukuda & MEN’s Teioh defeated HIROKI & Yasu Urano (c) when Teioh submitted Urano with the Spinning Toe Hold (17:21).
*HIROKI & Yasu Urano fail in V3. World Men’s Club become the 17th UWA World Tag Team Champions!
7. Hikaru Sato defeated FUMA with the V1 Armlock (18:54).

FUMA put up a good fight in the main event but fell to Hikaru Sato’s strong submission game. Sato taunted Union afterwards saying the company really is a resting place for a “premium toy” like himself. Isami Kodaka confronted him but not until after he shook hands with FUMA and gave him some words of encouragement, saying he saw power in FUMA. He then called out both Sato and Ganbare☆Wrestling for their recent treatment of Union. He cannot lose to them and let down the rest of the roster.

The UWA World Tag Team Titles changed hands with Hiroshi Fukuda & MEN’s Teioh winning the belts from HIROKI & Yasu Urano. Teioh took offence from Urano when he questioned his condition and said he was passed his peak. Teioh, who was recently hospitalised proved Urano wrong by submitting him with the Spinning Toe Hold. Both Fukuda and Teioh celebrated by doing the World Men’s Club pose with their new championships while the fans chanted “USA!”

The Union Vs Ganpuro war continued with both sides getting one win each on tonight’s show. Shuji Ishikawa defeated Yumehito Imanari with little effort, knocking him out with a Knee Strike. Ken Ohka then defeated Cherry in a bout that felt like a grudge match. However Ohka told Cherry after the match that they are alike. Ohka fights hard to make Ganbare☆Wrestling a major company while Cherry fights hard to prove a woman her age can make it as a wrestler. Ohka then challenged Ishikawa to make their final battle on 18th May a death match!

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Erin
2. KANNA Vs Ririko Kendo
3. Nonoko & Yuka Sakazaki Vs Chikage Kiba & Shoko Nakajima

Looks like Tokyo Joshi Pro is going to build up to Nonoko Vs Chikage Kiba for their next big singles match.

UNION “GOLDEN UNION IN YOKOHAMA”, 27/04/2014
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Idea Pocket Offer Match: Ryu Gouma & Daichi Kazato Vs Madoka & Tomoya Kawamura
2. Mio Shirai & SAGAT Vs Seiya Morohashi & Ladybeard
3. Shuji Ishikawa Vs Yumehito Imanari
4. Cherry Vs Ken Ohka
5. Isami Kodaka Vs Mitomi Masayuki
6. FUMA Vs Hikaru Sato
7. UWA World Tag Team Titles: HIROKI & Yasu Urano (c) Vs Hiroki Fukuda & MEN’s Teioh

The Idea Pocket Divas for this month are Yu Namiki & Tsubasa Amami. The winning team in the match get a double date with the Divas. Ryu Gouma is a little uncomfortable with the stipulation, believing it is a human right violation.

FUMA is looking forward to fighting Hikaru Sato. He is annoyed with Sato treating Union as a rest stop and is looking forward to beating him.

The Union Vs Ganpuro war continues with two key matches happening on this show. Cherry destroyed Ganpuro’s Gorikiko in a violent Judo Jacket Match that had to be held away from the public for safety reasons. She is pissed and wants to remind everyone that Union is more than just Shuji Ishikawa and Naomi Susan. So she steps in to challenge Ken Ohka to a match that nobody should miss. Meanwhile Shuji Ishikawa defends Union against Ohka’s second in command, Yumehito Imanari.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Medical Death Match: Survival Tobita Vs Dr. Kiriko
2. Revenge Of The Tiger!: Fumihito Kihara Vs Kotaro Nasu

There are currently four entries in the Ganbare☆Martial Arts Open Tournament: Ken Ohka (Wrestling), Glasses (Tae Kwon Do), Shota (American Wrestling) and Aki Shizuku (Amateur Wrestling). I think Glasses is Ladybeard’s friend who accompanied him when he fought as Richard Burn. Aki Shizuku is a joshi wrestler from REINA. She has amateur experience and was a runner up in the All Japan Student Championships.
