*MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami fail in V4. HARASHIMA & Yasu Uano become the 46th KO-D Tag Team Champions!

2013 already looks to be a good year for UraShimaHiro. The team of HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano successfully defeated MIKAMI & Tatsumi Fujinami to become the new KO-D Tag Team Champions! It was a crazy match which saw plenty of ladders being used, some were even brought in by Fujinami of all people. But UraShima were able to get rid of Fujinami and put MIKAMI down for the count with the Tombstone Piledriver followed by the Somato. Urano thanked Fujinami after the match and said he would be welcomed back into DDT anytime. Tsurumi Amon praised HARASHIMA and Yasu Urano and called them one of the strongest teams in DDT due to their vast combined success with tag team wrestling throughout their careers. But Amon pointed out they may not be the absolute No. 1 strongest team in DDT. HARASHIMA asked who was that team. Urano guessed the Golden Lovers. Amon took that as a nomination from the champions for their first title defence. So in Nagoya on 20/1 UraShima will defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega!

Tempers flared between Keisuke Ishii and Isami Kodaka in the build up to their DDT Extreme Title match in Union on 14/1. They will also cross paths again in the KO-D 6 Person Tag Team Title Tournament on 12/1 when Drift and Union face off in the semi-final. Today, Kodaka scored a pinfall over Ishii but a brawl broke out after the match and Ishii left Kodaka laying with the High Angle Double Arm DDT.

Kota Ibushi fell ill with the flu and had to miss the show, leading to a small shuffle in the card. Gota Ihashi was moved to the Battle Royal while Shigehiro Irie & DJ Nira were slapped together as a last minute team to face Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi. Despite the lack of preparation together, Irie & Nira were still able to win.

Michael Nakazawa, Hikaru Sato & Tomomitsu Matsunaga are now calling themselves 3CC Ltd Co. They want to get into the business of selling erotic DVDs of female wrestlers and the first talents they want to sign are Kana and Mio Shirai (Nakazawa’s a big fan of their recent gravure DVDs apparently). 3CC Ltd Co. brought along cameraman Yumehito Imanari to be in the ring and record the more suggestive moments of the match. Sanshiro Takagi didn’t like this and just wanted to have a normal wrestling match. Kana & Mio got the last laugh when they both made Nakazawa submit to a combined Armbar and Leglock, all while Imanari was filming it with gravure style camera angles.

Two new matches were announced for the 27/1 Korakuen Hall show. Yuzuki Aikawa will appear in DDT one last time before her retirement in April. She teams up with Sanshiro Takagi to face Danshoku Dino & Yoshiko. Also Kota Ibushi takes on Konosuke Takeshita.

Risa Sera from Ice Ribbon was the last name entered into the Young New Generation Battle. A.YAZAWA made his first appearance of the night to referee the bout which was turned into a Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match. A.YAZAWA would pop up again in the Battle Royal.
