6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) Vs Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato
A new unit is developing among the D GENERATIONS wrestlers. Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku decided to create a new stable focused on their age group and Daichi Sato agreed to join them. They don’t have a name at the moment so are temporarily being referred to as the New Generation Army. Since they already consist of three people they are going to fight for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as their first big challenge. Kaisei Takechi is itching to wrestle again sooner than scheduled so he along with Yuki Ueno & To-y are ready to defend their titles next week.
We’re approaching that time of year when DDT holds sponsored matches with the Yamada Suisan seafood company. That means the return of the masked seafood themed wrestlers Shishamo Power and Unagi Mask. The match also sees Yuki Iino return to action after he’s been away training for his American Football team.
A bonus dark match is being provided by Tokyo Joshi Pro. At the time of writing Rika Tatsumi is still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Could the belt be going back home to DDT? Not if she has any say in it. Her goal as the champion is to bring the title all the way to TJPW’s Sumo Hall show at the end of the month.
DDT “JUDGEMENT 2026 ~29TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 22/03/2026 Tokyo Korakuen Hall

3. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Hideki Okatani
4. DDT Universal Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Kazuma Sumi
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs KANON
If it’s all been fun and games for To-y so far as the DDT Extreme Champion then Hideki Okatani is here to bring an end to it. To-y is gradually approaching the record for most Extreme Title defences in a single reign but Okatani is accusing him of padding out wins by only fighting old washed up wrestlers. To-y argues against that because some of his challengers so far have been from their own generation too.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026 Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
1. Mizuki Vs Andreza Giant Panda
2. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro (w/ Super Sentai) Vs Aja Kong, Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku

5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai
Apparently TJPW went and did it. They struck a deal to have something Super Sentai related to show up at Sumo Hall and be involved with the ToJo Tokusatsu Club’s match. At least I think that is what’s happening. I’m confused because I thought the TV show just ended recently to be replaced with a similar substitute for reasons that involve the studio moving on from a copyright deadlock. I guess we’ll find out at Sumo Hall what the Super Sentai collaboration will look like. Maybe the Tokusatsu Club gets to morph into their own Super Sentai outfits before they go out and fight Pompaler & Aja Kong. Actually they should go full Kaiju Big Battel and have the ring filled with small cardboard buildings for everyone to smash and slam each other on.
The Tokusatsu Club recently completed their “fireball return” training but since fire was absolutely prohibited, they ended up doing batting practice with Tetsu Inada instead. There are updates for some of the other Super Sasadango Machine PR tasks to catch up on. The roster has spent the last few days putting up posters for the show around Tokyo. Minimo-chan has taken up weight training for its debut match. Shino Suzuki is finding more and more influencers to challenge for games of Rock Paper Scissors but has only beaten one opponent so far. She has to keep doing this until she beats two more.
Sasadango has also come up with more challenges for the wrestlers who haven’t been given any tasks yet. He has asked Shion Kanzaki to hold a street performance in the heart of Shinjuku. Meanwhile Miyu Yamashita was told to take on intensive idol training.
1. Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Yuni defeated Naomi Yoshimura & Hinata Kasai when Yuni pinned Kasai with he Jorge Clutch (9:46).
2. Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda turned into a Handicap Match.

3. Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku defeated Daichi Kazato & Rukiya when Masada pinned Rukiya with the Manburi (11:15).
4. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Shinya Aoki, Yukio Naya, Junta Miyawaki & Kazuma Sumi when Sasaki pinned Sumi with a School Boy Counter (10:55).
5. Special Tag Match: KANON & Viento Maligno (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Yuki Ueno & Akito when KANON pinned Akito with the Lariat (15:49).
6. DDT Extreme Title – Soccer Vs Sumo! Mixed Martial Arts “ITACHI” Rules: To-y (c) defeated Yuki Ishida with the Kojima Impact (14:04). *V7 for To-y.
Both To-y and Yuki Ishida delved into their different athletic backgrounds for the DDT Extreme Title match. The rules were Soccer Vs Sumo where items relating to either sport were allowed to be used as weapons. It even extended over to how they looked because To-y was wearing a complete football kit while Ishida wrestled in a mawashi. To-y used a soccer ball, football boots and shin guards as weapons to overcome Ishida force feeding him salt. When he was done defending the DDT Extreme Title, To-y told the fans he is going to make every venue move with excitement because he is the real deal.
However as he was heading back to the locker room, Hideki Okatani attacked him in an ambush. Okatani then accused him of having title matches against old wrestlers to inflate his defence numbers. Since To-y hasn’t nominated a new challenger, Okatani demanded the next title shot for 22nd March. A furious To-y accepted the challenge and pointed out some of his challengers so far have not been old folks. He’s going to earn his happy ending of breaking the record for most Extreme Title defences!
With another win under his belt, KANON wants to know if Yuki Ueno is finally thinking about him? He appreciates Ueno’s goal of bringing DDT to the Tokyo Dome but KANON himself isn’t that interested. He would rather just win the KO-D Openweight Title and go prove that DDT is the strongest. Ueno responded by Dropkicking KANON in the face and criticised his remarks. Later on KANON said that Dropkick flipped a switch in his head and Ueno better get the KO-D Title polished for their title match on 22nd March.
After hitting the highs of winning the D GENERATIONS CUP last week, Kazuma Sumi was sent crashing back down to Earth. Daisuke Sasaki along with the rest of DAMNATION T.A gave Sumi a beating. Then when Sumi made a comeback leading into the use of a School Boy pin, Sasaki rolled himself back on top of Sumi and held him down for the pinfall. Sasaki told Sumi after the match that pro wrestling isn’t a kid’s game and the DGC was made up of weak kids, any of whom could have won the tournament. As the DDT Universal Champion, Sasaki said he is at the level as high as the building’s ceiling while Sumi is way down at the ground level. For that reason he wants Sumi to give up his challenge so the Universal Title can be defended against someone better. Sumi admitted he wasn’t even close to winning today but the DGC was never his end goal. He knows he has no future unless he can beat DDT’s top wrestlers and he is confident it will happen at Korakuen Hall on 22nd March.
There doesn’t seem to be an official name yet for the new unit Takeshi Masada and Yuya Koroku are making but since it is being built around the D GENERATIONS, the show report on DDT’s site refers to them as the New Generation Army. After Masada & Koroku won their match against Daichi Kazato & Rukiya they invited the two of them to join the new group. Rukiya politely declined because he wants to continue fighting them as an opponent rather than become their stablemate. Sato however decided to shake their hands and join the new group. Masada then announced the three of them will go challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles.
A long serving member of the DDT staff will be leaving the company today. Takashi Yamaguchi worked several different roles in DDT during the six years he’s been employed so Hisaya Imabayashi wanted to give him the gift of a serious and passionate pro wrestling match for his last show. Unfortunately that request was for the match featuring Kazuki Hirata, Danshoku Dieno and Antonio Honda. Imabayashi kept interrupting the bout whenever one of them did their usual tricks. However Yamaguchi had enough of the interruptions and told Imabayashi he wanted to see all of the comedy spots because that’s why he loves DDT! He then put the GM in a Sleeper Hold so the wrestlers could wrestle without restrictions. Imabayashi was thrown face first into Dieno’s Hell Gate to the tune of “TOKYO GO!” The same then happened to Yamaguchi, who fell on top of Imabayashi. Everyone then counted the pin along with the referee and the match was declared all of them the winners in what had become a Handicap Match against Imabayashi.
DDT “HYBRID PERFORMER 2026 ~KAISEI TAKECHI 2ND ANNIVERSARY~”, 22/02/2026 Tokyo Korakuen Hall ??? Fans – Unannounced

5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, KANON & Viento Maligno (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Akito when Maligno pinned Akito with the Driver Maligno (10:37).
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – Final: Kazuma Sumi defeated Takeshi Masada with the School Boy (17:08).
7. Kaisei Takechi 2nd Anniversary Match: Yuki Ueno defeated Kaisei Takechi with WR (20:50).
To celebrate the second anniversary of his pro wrestling debut, Kaisei Takechi asked DDT for a particular opponent he wanted to face one on one. Up until today Yuki Ueno has been supporting Takechi as a tag partner in the majority of the dozen matches he’s had so far. Now Takechi wanted Ueno to be his first singles opponent. The result of this is Ueno has become the first person to make Takechi look up at the lights, handing him his first pinfall defeat. Takechi brought the fight to Ueno from the start, delaying an early rope break and firing Elbow Strikes along with Dropkicks to Ueno. That made Ueno take him more seriously and bring the fight outside the ring. Ueno threw Takechi into a row of chairs but Takechi got his own back by doing a Diving Cross Body above one of the stairways in the seating section. Back in the ring Takechi got close to winning by using the Choke Slam and Swan Dive Forearm. He then went to use a Sleeper Hold but Ueno got out of it to use his own Dropkicks and Elbow Strikes. Takechi couldn’t withstand the punishment for long and he was pinned with the WR.
Ueno congratulated Takechi after the match and if there is anyone out there who thinks Takechi is only doing pro wrestling as a side gig, Ueno wants them to come tell him. He told Takechi he isn’t at the level to compete for the KO-D Openweight Title yet but the next time they have a singles match against each other, Ueno will put the championship on the line. Takechi thanked him for welcoming him into DDT and talked about experiencing more losses than wins since before he even entered the entertainment industry. That has helped make him strong for wrestling. He also said he regrets not entering the King Of DDT tournament last year or appear at “WRESTLE PETER PAN” because of his summer schedule back then. So this year he has opened up his schedule in order to enter the tournament as well as take part in DDT’s big summer show! He will show everyone how much he will evolve until the day comes when the KO-D Title is worn around his waist! Takechi still has may tours with THE RAMPAGE lined up for 2026 but he is hoping to find gap where he can be booked for some of DDT’s shows outside of Tokyo too.
Kazuma Sumi has now been crowned this year’s best wrestler out of D GENERATIONS by winning the D GENERATIONS CUP! The final of the annual tournament’s fourth edition had Sumi beat the first ever winner Takeshi Masada. He relied on big high flying moves such as the Lionsault and Reverse 450 while Masada kept to a more balanced moveset to keep things under his control. It almost worked out for the latter as he used a Dominator to counter a Frankensteiner, then used the Triangle Kick and the Manburi for a nearfall. But when he went to use his finisher, Sumi suddenly flipped out of it and rolled him over with the School Boy lightning fast for the victory!
When Sumi received his trophy he told Masada that the best classmates are those to eat together, practice together and share both the good times and bad together. While they have trained together and experienced hard times, they were never close like that. Masada was always ahead ever since Sumi debuted but it gave Sumi something to chase after and made him work hard enough to become strong. So in a way Masada really is the best classmate Sumi could ever have. Daisuke Sasaki entered the ring to congratulate Sumi and tell him they can have an exciting match on 22nd March when Sumi gets his DDT Universal Title shot as his reward for winning the DGC. Sumi went to shake his hand until Sasaki kicked him between the legs. Sasaki called him stupid and there is zero chance Sumi will win the title from him. When Sumi recovered he said he isn’t a kid anymore and he is incredibly confident he will beat Sasaki for the belt next month. Meanwhile Masada talked to Yuya Koroku backstage about forming a new unit centered around the D GENERATIONS. Koroku agreed to be a part of it and Masada will now go look for other potential members to join.
The newest member of Strange Love Connection has arrived! The masked man Viento Maligno is a newcomer to DDT although some people suspect he may be more familiar to them than they realize. Danshoku Dieno gave him the Danshoku Claw early in the match then paused to give a reaction that suggested he recognized who Maligno is just from feeling his crotch. He didn’t dwell on it for long because he wanted to impress the guest commentator Riki Matsui from BALLISTIK BOYZ and tried to do so by doing lewd things to KANON in the ring. Viento got the hot tag in and used a llave submission on Akito while MAO did a Moonsault onto everyone outside. Viento then got the win by pinning Akito with the Driver Maligno, a move that looks like a Leg Clutch Olympic Slam thrown into a Michinoku Driver.
Dieno got on the microphone after the match to complain because DDT bringing in new wrestlers is making his generation feel disposable. Super Sasadango Machine agreed and wanted to send a message to CyberAgent. Pro wrestlers like them are not supposed to be treated like trading cards or gacha games… but they should be! CyberAgent is responsible for making loads of different card and gacha games so why are the wrestlers belonging to them being left out of being turned into content (don’t listen to Yota Tsuji, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about)? In order to make a more convincing arguement to the corporation, Dieno & Sasadango challenged SLC for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. MAO sort of understands their intentions because they want to work hard together for DDT’s sake so he accepted the challenge for 11th March. KANON then reluctantly shook his opponents’ hands to confirm they have the title shot.
At first it looked like Harimao were going to be in trouble fighting DAMNATION T.A because the numbers game was against them. Sasaki and Hideki Okatani both attacked Yuki Ishida with weapons but Ryota Nakatsu was able to give them more of a fight. Sasaki also threw a chair at Naomi Yoshimura while MJ Paul interfered a couple of times. Ilusion missing the Swanton Bomb gave Yoshimura his second wind while Kazusada Higuchi at ringside finally stepped in to grab Sasaki and then Paul with the Claw Hold at ringside. With the coast clear, Yoshimura threw over Ilusion with the Harai-goshi to get the victory. Harimao were fired up over the win and all said they couldn’t sense any sumo spirit from DAMNATION T.A. Harimao said they will climb higher from here and Nakatsu told the others he can come back for another match in DDT on 2nd March.
So far during his stay Junta Miyawaki is making both friends and enemies in DDT. He looks up to Shinya Aoki and got to team with him today but one of the wrestlers facing him, Rukiya, is getting more frustrated with him every time they fight in the ring. It continued here when Miyawaki pinned him with the Sunshine Clutch, a new cradle pin he created inspired by the Aoki Clutch where it is set up Tiger Suplex style instead of with a Full Nelson. Rukiya didn’t like how smug Miyawaki looked after the match and tried to fight him again until Koroku and others at ringside held him back. Backstage Miyawaki said he can really tell that Aoki enjoys pro wrestling which makes him enjoy wrestling even more too. Aoki though kept asking him if he saw Keigo Nakamura anywhere because that is who he used to team with. Unfortunately, Miyawaki doesn’t know who Nakamura is.
Today was the first time all four members of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC got to team together for an 8-Man Tag match and it turned into a success. Hinata Kasai was called out by Toru Owashi to begin the match then after some lucha spots he wanted to tag in Yuni to let the young blood take the stage. Kazuki Hirata didn’t care and burst in wanting to do his dance instead. Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA took over to fight with Yuni & To-y while Hirata kept trying to get in the way. Antonio Honda did an Olympics joke for Gongitsune, Hirata tried to counter it with dance but fell to a 4-on-1 situation all in tune to “TOKYO GO!”. Honda ended up pinning him with the Diving Fist Drop to give FANTÔMES DRAMATIC the win.
Hirata was made to stay behind after the match because Hisaya Imabayashi wanted to talk to him. The GM had an announcement regarding Hirata’s big match against Konosuke Takeshita happening on 22nd March. For years now Hirata has been using “TOKYO GO!” as his entrance song, even recording his own cover to avoid getting DDT into any copyright trouble. Well now DDT has invited the creator of the song John Robinson to attend the show and perform “TOKYO GO!” live for Hirata’s match entrance! Hirata is thrilled with the news and cannot wait to do the original “Magnum” dance with the actual DJ singing for him.
It’s not that often Makoto Oishi appears in DDT nowadays but he was here today because he is Takechi main mentor who trained him from scratch. It meant he got to wrestle Ryoma Tsukamoto for the first time and experience his strength up close. When that got too overwhelming Oishi tagged in Yukio Naya to give Tsukamoto a more powerful challenge. Tomomitsu Matsunaga had some fun keeping Oishi away from his corner when the going got tough. Sanshiro Takagi was also fired up and attempted a Coast To Coast Dropkick… where he just landed on his feet and then gave Oishi a regular Dropkick in the corner. He also took an Exploder Suplex from Jun Akiyama only to get back up and hit back with a Stunner. Akiyama came back later to Headbutt Matsunaga while Matsunaga had Naya in a Sharpshooter. Naya then purposely Choke Slammed Oishi onto Matsunaga for a near fall. Matsunaga also kicked out of a Running Knee Strike from Naya but was put down for good with The World’s Best Back Drop. Backstage Oishi said once Kaisei Takechi surpasses his then he will become a real pro wrestler.
A new wrestler was announced during the show to have joined DDT as a full time member of the roster. Masami Inahata is a 20 year old wrestler from Toyonaka City, Osaka who was formerly known as Thunder Masami in JTO. He only has a year’s worth of experience under his belt but announced in January he had graduated from his home promotion. What funny timing that this is happening so soon after his older brother Katsumi Inahata (formerly Fire Katsumi) went through a similar path from JTO to NOAH recently. Masami Inahata told the audience he has come to DDT because the company has many wrestlers his age here. His first match in DDT will take place on 22nd March.
When NωA Jr. finished their musical performance at the start of the show, Shunma Katsumata talked about his planned comeback from injury happening on 22nd March. He has someone in mind he wants his first match back to be against. It’s MAO! They have a lot of history together so it will mean a lot to Katsumata for MAO to be his opponent. MAO acted like he was going to attack his friend but instead he shook his hand and welcomed him back. He also said one of the reasons he left The 37KAMIINA was so he could fight Katsumata but the ACL injury happened to Katsumata before that could happen. MAO told him never to skip a match like that again and he’ll see him on 22nd March.

7. Bonus Track Exhibition Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Shunma Katsumata ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).
A surprise attack from To-y led to him and Minoru Suzuki brawling around ringside during the main event. Suzuki got the advantage by Heel Hooking To-y over near the entrances. To-y tried fighting back with Chops as well as the Kojima Wonderland. But Suzuki got back in control, fired himself up in a To-y like manner and won with the Gotch-Style Piledriver. After the match Suzuki had something to say to To-y and the rest of The 37KAMIINA. He likes saunas too! When Suzuki left the ring, To-y admitted to everyone he was scared of fighting him but also discovered it was exciting too. He wants to go crazy but couldn’t because something else crazy was about to happen in the surprise bonus main event!
Shunma Katsumata then got into the ring. He had spent the entire show playing multiple roles from event producer to ring announcer. Now after eight months since his last match, he was going to wrestle again! The surprise match was a three minute exhibition between Katsumata and Yuki Ueno. It ended in a tie and Katsumata told everyone today has been the most tiring day of his life. However he is now in great condition and will have his official return match from injury on 22nd March!
Ueno earlier found himself in what was pretty much a 1 Vs 4 match. His opponent was Pokotan but the mascot was accompanied with three DDT wrestlers taking up their own sauna gimmicks: Chris Bathooks (Chris Brookes), Naya Tonttu (Yukio Naya) & Sauna Stones・Den (Yuki Ishida). Pokotan lost its head during the match and one of the other wrestlers would put it on to take its place in the match. Ueno took everyone’s moves until the original Pokotan got its head back. Ueno wiped out the others with a Plancha and then hit a Frog Splash onto Pokotan while using its head for extra impact to get the win.
Hinata Kasai got to go ten minutes with Shinya Aoki. Whether or not that can be seen as valuable experience or an excuse to get stretched apart is for him to figure out. While Kasai got to get some offence in, Aoki was firmly in control for much of the match and he got Kasai with the Aoki Clutch to get the three count. Aoki said Kasai gave it his all and that was the reason why Aoki couldn’t end the match as soon as he wanted to. He’s happy with Kasai’s performance and looks forward to what’s to come for the rookie. Kasai called himself weak and said his entire body is in pain but he was able to resist the pain in order to fight Aoki with all that he’s got. He will treasure this match and will definitely beat Aoki some day, even if it takes a few years to get there.
Something Katsumata wasn’t able to do today was perform with NωA Jr. so Daichi Sato was supposed to take his place. Sato is out injured so Yuya Koroku ended up filling his spot instead. Meanwhile The Brahman Brothers had a new ally in the blue form of Brahman Sasaki. He joined in their shenanigans of throwing buckets of water at everyone and spewing mysterious goo out of his mouth. However NωA Jr. ended up doing something similar by drooling what was described as melted chocolate from their mouths onto the Brahmans. Things ended up backfiring for Koroku, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi with missed attacks that ended with powder being thrown into their faces. From there the Brahmans trapped Yuni in the Gotai Fumanzoku double pin for the victory. It took until after the match for Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei to figure out that NωA Jr. used melted chocolate because today is Valentine’s Day.
While the real Konosuke Takeshita is busy wrestling over in Australia, Shin Konosuke Takeshita made their big return a year after their previous appearance on this series. Kazuki Hirata was impressed with Shin Takeshita’s world class ability. Danshoku Dieno was fixated on fighting ShunMAO Katsumata and Koju Takeda joined in on his lewd spots. Shin Takeshita hit the Takeshita Line but couldn’t get over the ropes to do a Topé. Instead ShunMAO & Takeshi Masada used a spinning chair to help Shin Takeshita give Hirata the Raging Fire. Hirata kicked out much to everyone’s surprise but was then thrown into the Double Hell Gate that was Dieno & Takeda’s rear ends. ShunMAO then did the Totonou Splash onto Hirata and Shin Takeshita finished him off with the Wagamama.
Akito rolled back the clock and wrestled his match as a “Young Boy”, wearing the plain black trunks and using a more basic moveset. His match with Rukiya only lasted five minutes because that was the time limit allowed but Katsumata decided to give them a restart in order to determine a winner. Rukiya got the best of Akito here after a series of countered cradles ended with Rukiya getting the pin.
Before the show began, a press conference was held for the upcoming D GENERATIONS CUP final between Kazuma Sumi and Takeshi Masada. Sumi has thought about this match a lot but his thoughts are just him surpassing Masada to win the tournament. He thinks Masada is amazing but he is just as amazing too. Masada (accompanied by Bunbun) appreciated being called an amazing wrestler and competed in this year’s DGC tournament to get more fans to watch it. He wants as much support he can get to win and get the DDT Universal Title shot against Daisuke Sasaki. The two were asked what were their favorite matches in the tournament? Sumi’s answer was his match against Daichi Sato because they punched and kicked each other as hard as they could. Masada chose his two matches with Koroku because they left a lasting impression on him he will never forget. They were then asked about getting a Universal Title match. Sumi said he would like to challenge for that title for the first time and his goal is to become a top Junior Heavyweight wrestler. Masada feels uneasy because he had two previous title shots that both ended in failure. But if he wins it he wants to express what it’s like to be the Universal Champion in his own way.

4. Imaike Rumble 2026: Naomi Yoshimura defeated Ilusion with the Harai-goshi (18:32).
*Order Of Elimination: Yukio Naya, Yuki Ueno, HARASHIMA, MAO, Danshoku Dieno, Pokotan, Chris Brookes, Kazuki Hirata, Yoshihiko and Ilusion.
5. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: To-y (5) defeated Daichi Sato (4) with a Frankensteiner (10:31).
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: Kazuma Sumi (6) defeated Yuki Ishida (3) with the School Boy (10:22).
Kazuma Sumi has booked his spot in the D GENERATIONS CUP final! The A Block wound up sorting itself out rather nicely at the end too. When it was time for the main event, Sumi only needed to beat Yuki Ishida to top the group. Ishida wouldn’t go down without a fight and even lunged forward to throw the Flame Palm after taking a Thrust Kick to the jaw. Sumi however countered that into the School Boy and pinned him down with as hard as he could to get the three count. He said he can now see the top of the mountain that everyone has been aiming for and will win the DGC no matter who he faces in the final.
The person who was most angry over the main event result was To-y. He still had a path to the final open when he beat Daichi Sato and needed Ishida to beat Sumi to set up a sudden death tiebreaker. He even sat at ringside to watch the main event but when Ishida lost, To-y stormed backstage and confronted him over the result. To-y blamed Ishida for knocking him out of the tournament and then brought up the time they went drinking together. Ishida got so drunk he convinced To-y to pay for the bill which turned out to cost him 40,000 yen! To-y is willing to settle this debt by offering Ishida a shot at the DDT Extreme Title. Ishida can get a title match on the condition that if he loses he must pay back To-y his 40,000 yen!
Pokotan made a bigger mark on the Imaike Rumble than expected. He ended up being involved with eliminating wrestlers like Yuki Ueno, HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno and Chris Brookes. Late in the match, Pokotan uncharacteristically gave Kazuki Hirata a Low Blow. He was then revealed to be Ilusion is disguise! Ilusion was already in the match so there must have been a point when he disappeared along with Pokotan, took over the mascot’s costume and then snuck back in. Despite his trick working, Ilusion wound up losing the match to Naomi Yoshimura. The prize Yoshimura received for winning the Rumble was some local uiro treats.
An illness has taken Junta Miyawaki out of this weekend’s shows. Tomomitsu Matsunaga is his substitute for both today and tomorrow.

5. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: To-y (3) Vs Daichi Sato (4)
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: Yuki Ishida (3) Vs Kazuma Sumi (4)
The last matchdays for the D GENERATIONS CUP have several wrestlers still in the running to reach the final. In the A Block Kazuma Sumi just needs to win his match to win the group. Daichi Sato can get there if he wins and Sumi doesn’t. To-y and Yuki Ishida both need to win and even then that will result in a sudden death playoff between the two because they tied against each other earlier in the tournament.
DDT “IMAIKE FIGHT FEVER 2026”, 08/02/2026 Aichi Imaike Gas Hall
1. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Rukiya (4) Vs Hinata Kasai (0)
2. HARASHIMA & Yuni Vs Hideki Okatani & Ilusion

6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Takeshi Masada (4) Vs Yuya Koroku (6)
In the B Block we may see Yuya Koroku finish his run with a perfect record of four wins. But if Takeshi Masada can beat him then he will squeak by last year’s champion. However Rukiya can match the total score in that scenario if he beats Hinata Kasai which will then result in a three way tie where Koroku beat Rukiya, Rukiya beat Masada and Masada beat Koroku.

The “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” PR Ambassador Super Sasadango Machine will be visiting the show, presumably to get updates on all of the ideas he gave others to promote the Sumo Hall show. There are currently four requests he has given people. Shino Suzuki is tasked with challenging influencers with over 100,000 followers to games of rock paper scissors until she beats three of them. The GM Tetsuya Koda was told to go find a big guest famous enough to sell out Sumo Hall and get them to make their pro wrestling debut. The mascot Minimo-chan was told to master its special moves through intensive training. Finally Sanshiro Takagi was instructed to scout a new idol to turn into a pro wrestler.

5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Pokotan (w/ Chris Bathooks, Naya Tonttu & Sauna Stones・Den)
6. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y
Pokotan will not be alone when it fights Yuki Ueno. It will be accompanied by three sauna themed versions of DDT wrestlers. Naya Tonttu has appeared on these sauna wrestling shows before. Chris Bathooks and Sauna Stones・Den both have pun names that apply to saunas somehow but I don’t have the knowledge with that hobby to figure out what they are.

DDT “NEXT STEP GAME 2026”, 04/02/2026 Shinjuku FACE ??? Fans – Unannounced
1. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Yuya Koroku (6) defeated Hinata Kasai (0) with the Modified Triangle Lancer (9:43).
2. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Takeshi Masada (4) defeated Yuni (2) with the Manburi (9:53).
3. Jun Akiyama & Danshoku Dieno Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata ended in a No Contest when Hisaya Imabayashi stopped the match (0:20).
3a. 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match: Jun Akiyama & Danshoku Dieno defeated Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Hisaya Imabayashi when Akiyama submitted Imabayashi with the Exploder Intimidation (7:17).
4. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul defeated Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda and Akito, Junta Miyawaki & Yuki Ishida when Okatani pinned Honda with the Claymore (12:14).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, KANON & Yukio Naya defeated Yuki Ueno, Shinya Aoki & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when KANON pinned Matsunaga with a Lariat (13:01).
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: Ilusion (2) defeated To-y (3) with the Swanton Bomb (12:42).
7. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: Kazuma Sumi (4) defeated Daichi Sato (4) with the School Boy (12:39).
So far any concerns on if The Apex will get along with Strange Love Connection can be put to rest. Yukio Naya got along with MAO & KANON, even taking some instructions from them to set up their teamwork. The other story of the match was KANON locking horns with Yuki Ueno. When their exchange ended without a clear winner, MAO and Shinya Aoki took over. KANON got back into the swing of things getting into a Lariat clash with Tomomitsu Matsunaga. In the end, KANON’s Lariat was stronger and he got to win the match with the move. After the match KANON talked about his first few months with DDT where he joined DAMNATION T.A and became really cocky. He changed his tune when Ueno gave him his first loss in the company and over the last four years he’s been wanting to beat Ueno ever since. Ueno lost his temper and told KANON to stop lying. KANON then said Ueno knows nothing about him so he’s going to fill up Ueno’s head until he thinks about nothing else but KANON!
A freak accident at the start of the 3 Way trios match led to the uncommon sight of blood in a DDT ring. As Daisuke Sasaki took off his jacket, he whipped it right into the side of Antonio Honda’s head as part of a DAMNATION T.A ambush. The studs on the jacket must have caused some deep scratches because when Honda reappeared in the ring a few minutes later the side of his head had large bloodstains that were clear for everyone to see. The other members of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC bandaged him up with a towel while he was setting up his Gongitsune speech.
Hisaya Imabayashi had sold 50 tickets of the show to some of his acquaintances in the theater business so he asked Danshoku Dieno to instantly beat Kazuki Hirata so he could get angry at them and impress his colleagues. Hirata however didn’t want to lose and wouldn’t lay down so for once he wasn’t actually pinned for the three count immediately. Imabayashi stopped the match anyway to complain about not being able to complain. Hirata convinced him that if he wanted to look cool, he should join the match and make it 3 Vs 2! The GM agreed, siding with Hirata & Toru Owashi to face Dieno & Jun Akiyama for the restart. He immediately lost his courage but finally entered the match to give Dieno an STO. When Akiyama tagged in, Imabayashi psyched himself to give him some Elbow Strikes and a few Stunners. He wasn’t strong enough to give Akiyama an STO so Akiyama gave him a Headbutt and Running Knee Strike instead. Imabayashi kicked out of the pin so Akiyama decided to set up the Exploder Suplex. That caused Imabayashi to instantly give up out of fear.
Over at the D GENERATIONS CUP the two blocks are heading towards the finish line. Kazuma Sumi showed he is still in the race by beating Daichi Sato in the main event. He tried to School Boy him a bunch during the middle of the match but then resorted to using a Rolling Elbow and a High Kick. Those moves left Sato stunned for long enough to make the School Boy and effective way to beat him. Sumi wants to reach the final because his goal for the year is to win the DGC, then win the DDT Universal Title and after that win King Of DDT! Meanwhile To-y suffered a setback by losing to Ilusion, giving the masked heel a victory in his final match of the tournament. When chairshots didn’t have the intended effect, Ilusion used a ref bump to give To-y a Low Blow. He then wrapped some of the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Title belts around his body and landed a Coffin Drop onto To-y for extra damage. With that done, Ilusion then got the win by doing the Swanton Bomb without the belts.
The B Block might end up with Yuya Koroku going through as the clear winner of all of his matches. He is now three for three after beating Hinata Kasai. He wants to achieve a perfect record in order to push the limit and raise the level of D GENERATIONS even higher. If that happens, Koroku thinks that may be what it takes to get DDT to the Tokyo Dome. He’s not in the clear yet though. Takeshi Masada ended any hope Yuni has of reaching the final in the B Block to keep himself in the chase. Masada is now in the position to beat Koroku to win the block and he thinks that will be easy to do even when he is all by himself.
