*V3 for the KO-D Openweight Title. V1 for the DDT Universal Title.

High hopes and grand ambitions for the future spurred on Super Sasadango Machine as he found himself fighting Yuki Ueno for DDT’s top two championships in Korakuen Hall today. He spent the time leading up to the match working out with a personal trainer, had revealed the Reverse Shrimp Hold as his deadly secret weapon he had kept hidden for around two decades and he was watched over by Konosuke Takeshita in his corner for the match. The big problem though was Ueno banned Sasadango from giving any PowerPoint Presentations until this match took place, sapping away Sasadango’s creativity. Or did it? As he held Ueno in the Reverse Shrimp Hold, fighting to stop the champion from reaching the ropes “Etupirka” began to play and a spiritual PowerPoint Presentation was broadcast directly into the minds of everyone watching the match! In it Sasadango revealed then if he wins the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title today, he will nominate Ueno to be his first challenger and hold the rematch at the 3rd January Korakuen show next year. Then the next day Sasadango will invade the Tokyo Dome to take over New Japan’s big show! Unfortunately for Sasadango the bonus motivation didn’t work and Ueno made it to the ropes to break his secret hold. Ueno also kicked out of the Vertical Drop Lehman Shock even though Sasadango hit the move three times throughout the match. Sasadango’s last plan was to simply use a Dropkick on Ueno but the champion got back up and did several Dropkicks of his own. Sasadango kicked out of the BME and the two wrestlers began Dropkicking each other back and forth. They both kept kicking out of the pins until Sasadango got Dropkicked in the face one time too many and couldn’t kick out anymore.

After the match Ueno thanked Sasadango for doing his best and asked him if they really can make the dream of bringing DDT to the Tokyo Dome come true? Sasadango said it is not a dream at all and it is their responsibility to take all of the DDT fans to that destination. If everybody puts their minds to it, they can definitely make it to the Tokyo Dome and fill it up for an amazing view! Ueno admitted he will never become an icon like Hiroshi Tanahashi but that’s okay. Sasadango advised him to just be himself and then left. Later during his backstage comments, Sasadango talked about the opportunities that will open up when Tanahashi retires for other wrestlers to become the next icon for the entire industry, not just in New Japan. There are so many things that need to be done for DDT to get to the Tokyo Dome but Sasadango promised he will work hard to help make it happen, especially since we are not that far off from DDT celebrating its 30th Anniversary.

But that’s still way off in the future. Ueno is also thinking about what he’s going to do next. Hisaya Imabayashi told him his next singles title match will happen on the 21st December Korakuen show and Ueno was allowed to choose his opponent. Ueno decided he will defend the KO-D Title against one of the D GENERATIONS wrestlers and the challenger would be determined right away with a Rock Paper Scissors tournament! He explained it would be the fairest way to quickly determine the No. 1 Contender and it is also an idea that has been passed down through DDT since ancient times. In the end, Takeshi Masada beat Yuki Ishida in the final to earn the title shot. Ueno asked him what does he want to do if he becomes champion? Masada said he will prove that he is the future of DDT. Ueno told him he has plenty of time to do that so he should say something that will make Ueno want to beat him. Masada said he will make Ueno feel despair when he beats him on the 21st!

Fresh off of losing winning his first match in the Continental Classic at AEW last week, Takeshita made it all the way back to DDT for a special rematch against Shinya Aoki. He brought the IWGP World Heavyweight Title with him but the match was a non-title bout. Aoki brought the challenge, finding unique ways to use his moves on Takeshita. He avoided being pinned with the Blue Thunder Bomb by applying a Cross Armbreaker and also used the setup for the Aoki Clutch as a feint to roll Takeshita into the European Clutch instead. Takeshita got the better of him though by escaping his different cradle pins and using a Backslide to roll himself on top of Aoki and pin him with a bridging Jackknife. Takeshita said backstage that he cannot afford to lose anywhere right now because the Tokyo Dome is waiting for him. He isn’t just talking about 4th January because as long as he is with DDT, he wants to go to the Tokyo Dome with DDT! He also sees how much the D GENERATIONS have improved and thinks DDT is in good hands with them around. Aoki is coming off of a recent MMA defeat in ONE FC and said how strange it is that today he feels he is back where he belongs. To him, martial arts and MMA are all part of the same rules as pro wrestling and he has come to love modern pro wrestling.

A grudge match over the KO-D Tag Team Titles pushed Strange Love Connection to bring in an extra ringside second alongside KIMIHIRO to even up the numbers against DAMNATION T.A. During the entrance KIMIHIRO introduced everyone to the stage actress Yuzuki Hoshimoto who was armed with a whip and also an illuminated blade shaped bat. However she didn’t turn out to do much when DAMNATION T.A attacked the champions during their entrance. She whipped MJ Paul a bit but he just shoved her against the ring apron in response. Things went worse for SLC when MAO’s attempted stage dive missed the target and he landed on KANON instead. Daisuke Sasaki continued to attack them with chairs, even Body Slamming KIMIHIRO onto a pile of them. Paul & Demus added more damage with interference spots but MAO got his own back by wiping them out at ringside with a Quebrada. Sasaki held MAO in La Mistica Crossface Lock while Hideki Okatani went to finish the job but KANON made a comeback on the two of them. As much as Okatani tried to harm KANON’s hand, he couldn’t stop him from doing the LONELY DEZIRES, giving SLC a hard earned victory and KANON his revenge.

After the match KANON spoke about having confidence now and proving he is not unwanted because he has friends who support him. SLC beat DAMNATION T.A but they don’t want their title run to end here. They heard that earlier today F-SWAG were telling everyone they want a title shot. MAO thinks it’s great that teams from outside DDT now want to fight for the KO-D Tag Titles because he needs new opponents to help himself and KANON grow stronger together. Meanwhile DAMNATION T.A were coming up with excuses for losing. Sasaki blamed it on bad calls while Okatani had regrets over not using his bamboo stick because he thought he could win without it.

Gambling was the name of the game when it came to today’s DDT Extreme Title match. Well actually the name of the match was Weapon Gamble but you know what I mean. To-y and Sanshiro Takagi spent over a week gambling their money in the hopes of raising funds for weapons to use in this match. Neither of them won anything substantial so they were reduced to finding weapons they didn’t have to pay for. The extra catch was every time a new weapon was introduced, they would have to play a card game where the person who drew the higher number would be allowed use the weapon on his opponent. One instance of this backfiring was when Takagi brought in a group of unpaid amateur indie wrestlers. To-y won the card game so all of the wrestlers attacked Takagi instead. The next item was a briefcase that To-y won the right to use but Takagi grabbed it and ran off. When the indie wrestlers chased after him, Takagi pulled out a spray can from the briefcase and blinded everyone with it. The Dramatic Dream was next and Takagi got to crash it into everyone up in the aisleway. Another bicycle was brought out but this one belonged to To-y’s parents! He and Takagi then crashed their bikes into each other. Then came the most dangerous weapon of the match: A parent-teacher meeting with To-y’s mother Miwa Kojima! Takagi won the card game so he got to tell Miwa about To-y’s gambling problem, claiming To-y has taken it so far that he has stolen Takagi’s money to fund it! Miwa also revealed her credit card is constantly in debt because of her son so she asked Takagi to help her. Takagi smashed a plastic case over To-y’s head as punishment which shocked Miwa. She had a sudden change of heart and slapped Takagi across the face, stunning him long enough for To-y to give him the Kojima In Wonderland onto the plastic cases for the victory. Mother and son hugged each other afterwards but To-y admitted he cannot quit gambling. He promised to make enough money to pay it all back though and then make even more money so he can gamble even more without it going to waste. He admits when you hold the Extreme Title you lose track of what is right and what is wrong. However he will always be authentic.

The first DDT tour for the Belgian tag team Rivality came to an end today with them getting to team up with Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA. The four of them all joined forces to face the temporary alliance of SCHADENFREUDE International and Harimao. Early on MBM & Ultima Sombra got to experience the SCHADENFREUDE Tower spot from both sides. Sombra was the one getting punished while MBM got to pose on top of him with everyone else. Sombra also took the full brunt of the rubber band spot from Chris Brookes. Akiyama fought Naomi Yoshimura for the more serious part of the match but the finish came down to Masada & Ishida hitting their finishers on both members of MBM at the same time, leading to Masada pinning MBM.

As mentioned earlier, F-SWAG has come to DDT and they are looking for gold. Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox made the most of the chaos that went on to win the 3 Way Tag Match against The Apex and DAMNATION T.A. They formed an alliance with Demus & Ilusion at first but betrayed them as soon as the opportunity arose. Hox wiped out Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya with a dive then made it back into the ring to help Masaoka finish off Ilusion for the victory. After the match F-SWAG got on the microphone and said they wanted to face the winners of the KO-D Tag Titles match on 21st December because that is the only date they have open that month. DDT better watch out!

After a month long delay in recovery, Danshoku Dieno finally got to make his triumphant return to the ring. Too bad the match began while he was making his entrance through the audience and Antonio Honda submitted to Kazusada Higuchi’s Claw Hold six seconds in. Imabayashi got mad at Dieno’s moment being ruined and ordered a restart. The match went on without a hitch with all of the Lip Locks and partial nudity you’d want in a Dieno match. Toru Owashi didn’t get a Lip Lock though despite anticipating he would. Dieno had extra pent up energy built up from his time away and it was used to charge up the Hirata Go! glasses and also Gongitsune (as well as a portable battery belonging to a fan at ringside). Kazuki Hirata turned the charged up Gongitsune against Honda in order to pin him with the Miracle One Shot Cradle.

In the dark match Akito, Daichi Sato & Yuya Koroku all teamed up to defeat Soma Takao, Rukiya & Hinata Kasai. Takao & Rukiya tried to break down Sato with a Sandwich Elbow attack so Kasai could hit him with a Missile Dropkick. Sato got back at Kasai with a Fisherman Suplex and pinned him with a Penalty Kick.

Two big matches featuring Kaisei Takechi were announced for December and January to help him prepare for his “WRESTLE KINGDOM” appearance. On 21st December he will team with HARASHIMA to face Yuji Nagata & Sanshiro Takagi. Then on 3rd January Takechi will defend the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles with The 37KAMIINA against SLC & Kazuma Sumi.

DDT “BANETSU EAST LINE TRAIN PRO WRESTLING” Results

November 29, 2025

DDT “BANETSU EAST LINE TRAIN PRO WRESTLING”, 29/11/2025
Banetsu East Line Train
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Staggered Boarding Tag Team Battle Royal: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated Yuki Ueno & To-y, MAO & KANON, Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi and Sanshiro Takagi & Akito (150:38).
1a. Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada eliminated Sanshiro Takagi & Akito by Ring Out (72:00).
1b. Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata eliminated Yuki Ueno & To-y by TKO when Higuchi used the Torture Canadian Backbreaker on To-y (143:45).
1c. MAO & KANON and Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi eliminated Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata after Hirata submitted to Higuchi’s Combined Canadian Backbreaker (144:13).
1d. MAO & KANON and Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi eliminated each other when KANON pinned Sumi and Naya pinned MAO at the same time (147:20).
1e. Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada eliminated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when Brookes pinned Koroku with a Piledriver through the Table (150:38).

A cozy train ride across the Banetsu East Line Train was on the cards today. DDT decided to put on a Tag Team Battle Royal on a train with the first group of teams boarding on at Koriyama Station. Yuki Ueno & To-y were the first to walk down the aisleway, followed by Strange Love Connection, then Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada and lastly Kazusada Higuchi & Kazuki Hirata joined in. While the fighting went on for a while, the wrestlers took breaks here and there to talk with the passengers. MAO also promoted the big Baka Gaijin + Friends show taking place in Shinjuku FACE on Tuesday.

The action picked up at Iwaki Tokiwa Station when two more teams entered the fray. HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku as well as Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi all jogged down to the station and fought everyone outside the train. The SCHADENFREUDE International team also sack tossed wrestlers like Koroku and Sumi into piles of dry hay nearby before everyone got back in the train.

Everyone wanted to pace themselves for the next station so rather than wrestle, they all played card and dice games over a luxury bento box. When the train arrived at Ononiimachi Station there was a secret team standing by to be the final entrants in the match. It was Sanshiro Takagi & Akito! Everyone continued wrestling outside on the platform where passengers on another train got to watch on from their seats. When that train departed all of the wrestlers waved goodbye to it. Everyone then decided to gang up on Takagi & Akito, tying them both to the train station’s sign post. They also stuck tape over their mouths and abandoned them at the station so the match could continue on its journey. Since Takagi & Akito didn’t make it back to the train when it left, they were the first team eliminated from the Battle Royal.

 

The wrestlers took another break on the train to eat lunch and play more games. Hirata then led some of the others in a dance before the fighting broke out again. The train stopped at Akai Station where Pokotan was meant to step onboard as a surprise guest but he was spotted sleeping on the ground. He woke up as the train was leaving and tripped over while trying to chase after it.

The train reached its final destination and everyone disembarked so the Battle Royal could conclude outside of Iwaki Station. The 37KAMIINA team were eliminated when Higuchi held To-y in the Canadian Backbreaker until To-y fainted while Ueno was too busy dancing with Hirata to notice. Everybody then physically made Higuchi put Hirata in the Canadian Backbreaker and all wrenched the move harder to make Hirata give up, knocking Higuchi out of the match too.

A back and forth battle then went ahead between SLC and Naya & Sumi. It ended with Sumi giving MAO a Flying DDT onto the ground only for MAO in his last gasp give Sumi the Fire Thunder onto the concrete. Both men were knocked completely out so KANON pinned Sumi while Naya pinned MAO. Both got three counts but that also meant both teams had eliminated each other!

That left two teams still standing for the big finale. HARASHIMA tried to do the Somato on Masada while he was leaning against a flipped over table. Masada rolled out of the way making HARASHIMA crash into the table knees first. Koroku then tried to fight off Brookes & Masada two on one but eventually fell to their double team tactics. The table was set back up and Brookes put Koroku through it with a Piledriver for the final elimination, making SCHADENFREUDE International the winners of the Battle Royal in over two hours and 30 minutes!

DDT “SHOUT YOUR LOVE IN HAMA’S RING!” Results

November 22, 2025

DDT “SHOUT YOUR LOVE IN HAMA’S RING!”, 22/11/2025
Kanagawa Radiant Hall

5. O-40 Title: Daisuke Sasaki defeated Antonio Honda (c) with a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch Counter (12:36).
*Antonio Honda fails in V1. Daisuke Sasaki becomes the 8th O-40 Champion!
6. Special Single Match: Hideki Okatani defeated KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) with a Gyaku-uchi (13:41).
7. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Chris Brookes defeated Super Sasadango Machine, Sanshiro Takagi & HARASHIMA when Ueno pinned Sasadango with a School Boy (17:37).

In the final warm up match before the next Korakuen Hall show, Yuki Ueno got one over on Super Sasadango Machine for the finish. Sasadango tried to put his own mask over Ueno’s face to blind him but Ueno blocked it. Instead, Ueno put the mask back on Sasadango backwards, Dropkicked him in the head and then pinned him with a School Boy. While Sanshiro Takagi and To-y argued after the match over gambling, Ueno spoke to Sasadango and asked why he decided to challenge him for the KO-D Openweight Title? Sasadango’s answer was he wants to beat Ueno, carry his beaten body to the merchandise venue like a knight carrying a rescued princess and then make a ton of money from taking photos with the fans. Ueno cut him off and asked what does Sasadango want to do if he becomes champion? Sasadango pointed out that a huge hole in the wrestling world will open up when Hiroshi Tanahashi retires on 24th January. Sasadango sees this as his opportunity to become the next ace of the entire pro wrestling industry!

Hideki Okatani is playing mind games on KANON ahead of their KO-D Tag Team Titles Match. At the contract signing during the show, Okatani told KANON that no matter where he goes he will always be an unwanted child. Even if MAO picked KANON up after he was kicked out of DAMNATION T.A, he is only going to be abandoned again. Daisuke Sasaki doesn’t want to bring him back into the group and is going to ruin his life even more when DAMNATION T.A take the KO-D Tag Titles away from Strange Love Connection. KANON told them he is having the most fun of his career right now because he now has friends he can rely on. MAO thinks the best way KANON can get revenge on DAMNATION T.A is to show off how much more lively he is without them. Later in the show, Okatani beat KANON in a grudge match thanks to Sasaki hitting KANON in the back with a chair. A brawl then broke out where DAMNATION T.A overwhelmed SLC and left all of them laying, KIMIHIRO included. Despite that, KANON is trying to play some mind games back by saying Sasaki actually does want him back even though Sasaki says otherwise.

Today is Sasaki’s 40th birthday and he got to celebrate it even more by winning the O-40 Title from Antonio Honda! The former champion decided to be gracious after the match by singing Happy Birthday but Sasaki didn’t want to hear it and walked off with the belt. Backstage Sasaki sent a message out to all of the best wrestlers over the age of 40 to come fight him for the belt. He wants the likes of Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk and Brock Lesnar to all answer his challenge.

Akito decided to be a referee for a match celebrating the 16th Anniversary of his debut because it is something he has never done before. Both Kazuki Hirata & Soma Takao wanted Akito to call things in their favor because yesterday was Hirata’s birthday and Takao is celebrating three years of managing the Dropkick Bar. When Akito declined to help, they then tried to bribe him 3,000 yen. Akito accepted the deal and purposely counted fast for them while counting slow for Rukiya & Hinata Kasai. However he had a change of heart after Rukiya confronted him over his officiating and was convinced to change sides because Rukiya is worth more to him than 3,000 yen. Akito then instructed Rukiya how to correctly apply a Crab Hold and Rukiya used the move to successfully submit Hirata.

Team DDT Gets Purged By House Of Torture

November 19, 2025

NJPW “NIGHT OF THE PURGE ~PURGE NIGHT OF TORTURE~”, 07/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1,481 Fans – No Vacancy

4. SANADA, DOUKI & SHO defeated Yuki Ueno, Akito & Kaisei Takechi by Referee Stoppage when DOUKI used the Italian Stretch No. 32 on Akito (16:08).

A few DDT wrestlers were given an invite to a dangerous event held in a New Japan ring. The House Of Torture are the latest act in the company who got to run a vanity show of their own, following in the footsteps of El Desperado and Taiji Ishimori. But while the previous shows were put together for the sake of having crazy ideas come to life, today’s event had a more evil (or should I say EVIL) motive. The House Of Torture had a list of wrestlers they wanted to purge for one reason or another and EVIL wanted to see Kaisei Takechi in particular be punished for his success.

SHO started things off by making fun of THE RAMPAGE and called everyone on Takechi’s team a bunch of country bumpkins. Akito then got under SHO’s skin by pointing out that SHO may be hiding his true feelings but he is taking everything in this match seriously. The proof is right there in how much he prepared his speech to introduce each wrestler on the team to the audience. Also you don’t get a physique with low body fat like that without some serious training.

The House ended up getting the last laugh with a destructive victory over the DDT team. SANADA broke a guitar over Yuki Ueno’s head while DOUKI used the Italian Stretch No. 32 on Akito, holding onto him with a tight grip. SHO added extra damage by hitting Akito over the head with a tray while he was stuck in the hold, leading the referee to stop the match for Akito’s safety and declare HOT the winners. The team then added extra insult to injury by attacked Takechi after the bell, holding him upside down with his legs split apart so SANADA could karate chop him in the crotch.

Backstage DOUKI said that just because Takechi is good looking, has a great body and can do super cool moves that doesn’t mean he is a match for HOT. All of his lame fans who support THE RAMPAGE shouldn’t underestimate pro wrestling! The same goes for anyone who thinks DDT and NJPW are on the same level. However Ueno noticed there was a giant glint in DOUKI’s eye while they were wrestling each other because the two of them used to train together in DDT’s old dojo ten years ago. With that being said there is only on wrestler in NJPW that makes Ueno’s heart flutter and that’s Hiromu Takahashi. If Ueno ever comes back to New Japan, he will be on the lookout for him. Meanwhile Takechi stepped forward under his own volition and told reporters he wants to have a match with Hiroshi Tanahashi somewhere before Tanahashi’s retirement takes place.

DDT “KUMAMOTO WARRIORS” Results

November 9, 2025

DDT “KUMAMOTO WARRIORS”, 09/11/2025
Kumamoto Castle Hall Civic Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Demus defeated Kazuma Sumi with La Valagueza (9:47).
2. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion defeated Chris Brookes, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Hinata Kasai when Okatani pinned Kasai with the Skewered Claymore (12:53).
3. Takeshi Masada defeated MJ Paul with the Manburi (8:50).
4. Special 3 Way Match: Yuki Ueno defeated MAO (w/ KIMIHIRO) and Kazuki Hirata when Ueno pinned MAO after a Choke Slam By The Stand (14:23).
5. Special Single Match: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yuya Koroku with a Single Leg Crab Hold (12:54).
6. Kumamoto Castle Sauna No Yu Presents Special 6-Man Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Sanshiro Takagi & HARASHIMA defeated To-y, Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida when TAKESHITA pinned Ishida with the Raging Fire (20:04).

A homecoming show was the big chance for Yuki Ishida to claim some glory he’s been missing out on so much lately but it just wasn’t to be. Konosuke Takeshita gave him quite a beating that was done just as much to send a message to To-y & Daichi Sato. The D GENERATIONS trio tried launching a comeback on Sanshiro Takagi & HARASHIMA but Takeshita put Ishida away at the end with the Raging Fire. Takeshita had some words to say after the match but first ordered To-y & Sato to cover Ishida’s ears so he couldn’t hear them. Takeshita explained that Ishida gets cocky whenever he receives praise then called him a talented wrestler who is working hard, which should mean a lot coming from the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion! He told the local fans that the more they support Ishida, the stronger he will become. When it was Ishida’s time to talk, he said he will keep working hard to become a wrestler like Takeshita. He also brought up a goal to wrestle in his hometown of Yatsuhiro once a year as well as Kumamoto City once a year. To-y didn’t show Takagi the same respect, he flipped him off with his middle finger instead.

Just like in Osaka last month, MAO and Kazuki Hirata wore special glasses in their match that allowed them to use Stand powers on each other. Yuki Ueno was the odd man out until he got his hands on a pair of glasses that turned him into a Stand user too. Ueno then used his new abilities to Choke Slam MAO and Hirata at the same time without actually touching them to win the 3 Way Match.

Takeshi Masada used what looks like the Busaiku Knee Kick to beat MJ Paul. His version of the move is now called Manburi.

DDT “TONKOTSU SUPLEX” Results

November 8, 2025

DDT “TONKOTSU SUPLEX”, 08/11/2025
ACROS Fukuoka Event Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Hideki Okatani defeated Yuki Ishida with the Skewered Claymore (10:52).
2. MJ Paul & Demus defeated Yuya Koroku & Hinata Kasai when Demus pinned Kasai with La Valagueza (8:58).
3. Irregular 3 Way Match: To-y defeated Kazuki Hirata and Takeshi Masada when To-y submitted Hirata with an Arm Bar (9:55).
4. Yuki Ueno defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with the Jul.2 (8:58).
5. Sanshiro Takagi & Chris Brookes defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Daichi Sato when Takagi pinned Sato with La Magistral Cradle (11:00).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Daisuke Sasaki & Ilusion defeated MAO, HARASHIMA & Kazuma Sumi (w/ KIMIHIRO) when Sasaki pinned Sumi after the Dooms Of Day The Alpha (20:19).

Well that finisher name in the main event is a bit of a mouthful. Konosuke Takeshita & Daisuke Sasaki used the Doomsday Device to pin Kazuma Sumi but the DDT website put the name down in English as “Dooms Of Day The Alpha”. I think they can get away with taking out the “Of”. After the match Takeshita talked about being a trainer for Ilusion when Ilusion started wrestling. He was then entrusted to Sasaki when Takeshita moved to America. Takeshita told Ilusion he has become a good wrestler but if he is in DAMNATION T.A then he’ll need to get stronger to catch up with Sasaki. Ilusion told everyone that all of the times Takeshita scolded or praised him became part of his pro wrestling.

Yuki Ueno got to talk about his good times with Tomomitsu Matsunaga after they had a rare singles match put together due to a bunch of wrestlers becoming too sick to wrestle today.

Special rules were put together for the 3 Way Match. After using an Amidakuji page to figure it out To-y needed to be pinned for a normal 3 Count to lose, Kazuki Hirata needed to be pinned for a 5 Count to lose and Takeshi Masada needed to just be pinned for a 1 Count to lose. So naturally the match ended with To-y submitting Hirata because it was quicker than pinning him.

Tetsuya Endo over in NOAH will be missing a show on Sunday too and his is the only report that says he caught the flew. The DDT pages only say the wrestlers mentioned above are all unwell.

However MAO has recovered from his sick day and will make the shows.

1. Miu Watanabe, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Rika Tatsumi, Arisu Endo & Suzume

Some book reading and then a wrestling match for the kids. Rika Tatsumi is also still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion so there’s the risk of a title change happening too.

Two DDT wrestlers have quietly been added to another show going over in Saitama this Sunday. There are two Street Wrestling matches are taking place at the annual Waku Waku Festival. Soma Takao will be there to reunite ROMANCE DAWN with Shota to take on Makoto Oishi & Shiori Asahi. Also Gota Ihashi is entering a 3 Way Match against So Daimonji and Kaji Tomato. It’s not DDT branded matches as much as I can tell but DDT are promoting it on their Twitter so I might as well try to find the results when they happen.

DDT “BE AMBITIOUS ~AUTUMN BATTLE~”, 30/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – Weapon Gamble Match: To-y (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani
3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Shinya Aoki
4. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c/c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine

The double title match is something that Yuki Ueno really wants to put across as a big deal so he asked DDT to put their best effort into the pre-match hype video to tell the story right to the audience. He also doesn’t want the match itself to risk being undercut by the video so he is forcing Super Sasadango Machine to skip the pre-match PowerPoint Presentation! Sasadango reluctantly agreed because he has a secret weapon that can win him both the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title. He has the dreaded Reverse Shrimp Hold that he purposely kept hidden in his moveset for his entire career and now is the time for him to use it!

We have another Konosuke Takeshita match in DDT to look forward to this month and it is a doozy. Both he and Shinya Aoki want to have a rematch from their January 2022 bout so let them have at it! They did wrestle each other far more recently, during Wrestlemania Weekend in Las Vegas this past April. But one on one it’s been quite a while.

Both members of Strange Love Connection falling sick and missing some matches has ended up making a few wrestlers from DAMNATION T.A mad. Daisuke Sasaki wants them to give up the KO-D Tag Team Titles if they’re going to be weak like this, unlike him who injured his ribs the last time he was in a KO-D Tag Titles match and was able to come back from it. Hideki Okatani made the challenge even more serious by attack KIMIHIRO with his bamboo stick when the MC was performing by himself without MAO or KANON there to protect him.

A new twist on an old favorite awaits for the DDT Extreme Title match. Sanshiro Takagi loves the Weapon Rumble while To-y loves gambling. So you put them together to get the Weapon Gamble! The match is won under normal means but every now and then a new weapon will be brought down to the ring. For every weapon that shows up, To-y and Takagi will play a gambling game where the winner gets to use the weapon. It will be against the rules for a wrestler to use a weapon they didn’t win.

DDT “RYOGOKU AFTER ~IT’S A WONDERFUL BATTLE~” Results

November 6, 2025

DDT “RYOGOKU AFTER ~IT’S A WONDERFUL BATTLE~”, 06/11/2025
Shinjuku FACE

2. Special Tag Match: Naomi Yoshimura & Kumadori defeated Soma Takao & Hinata Kasai when Yoshimura submitted Kasai with a Side Headlock (9:35).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga, Yuya Koroku & Rukiya when Oktani pinned Rukiya with the Skewered Claymore (10:56).
4. Chris Brookes defeated Yuki Ishida with a PK (12:08).
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & HARASHIMA defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Daichi Sato when Suzuki pinned Sato with the Gotch-Style Piledriver (13:22).
6. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA defeated Antonio Honda with the Raging Fire (18:06).
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Super Sasadango Machine, Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Akiyama defeated Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kazuma Sumi when Sasadango submitted Sumi with a Reverse Shrimp Hold (18:41).

Life moves quickly and DDT is already setting up stakes for their next Korakuen Hall show while “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” shrinks away in the rear view window. Yuki Ueno will now be defending his two championships against Super Sasadango Machine but a condition was put down for the challenger to follow during the contract signing at the start of today’s show. Ueno thinks it is important for the fans to understand why he and Sasadango want to win this match so much so a pre-match hype video will be necessary. So to avoid any time constraints, Ueno told Sasadango he cannot be allowed to hold a PowerPoint Presentation before the match! Sasadango was speechless until he found the words to ask if PowerPoint was always banned for KO-D Openweight Title matches (Sasadango did have a presentation for his only previous KO-D Title match back in 2014 but it was also a surprise Right To Challenge cash in) and if the fans were okay with this? Ueno admitted he is looking out for himself because of how big the stakes are but if Sasadango cannot be confident without PowerPoint then he shouldn’t be in the match. Sasadango reluctantly agreed and signed the contract. There will be no PowerPoint presentation when the KO-D Title and DDT Universal Title are both on the line on 30th November.

So now Sasadango needed to think of a new plan for the double title match. Ueno admitted during the segment that Muscle Sakai’s mind as well as his hard work inspires him and he wants to use that motivation to achieve his dream of bringing DDT to the Tokyo Dome. Sasadango warned that he can think of 100 different moves to make at any given time and he quickly focused on one to prove he deserves to have the double title match. In the main event he unmasked himself and pulled the mask over Ueno’s face to distract him. He then put Kazuma Sumi in a Crab Hold and applied enough pressure to make Sumi give up! That is the new plan Sasadango has come up with to beat Ueno, the Crab H… no wait, the Reverse Shrimp Hold! It is his favorite move because shrimp is his favorite food but he has kept it hidden throughout his entire wrestling career. With his plump body and Ueno’s toned waist, Sasadango warns that the Reverse Shrimp Hold will snap Ueno in half!

Also after the main event, To-y and Sanshiro Takagi argued over their DDT Extreme Title match happening on 30th November. Takagi reminded To-y that the champion is meant to choose the stipulation match. To-y snapped back and said he knows that because he has defended the title five times already. He loves to gamble now so they are going to have a Weapon Gamble match. Takagi likes the idea because it sounds like his favorite gimmick match, the Weapon Rumble. To-y later explained the rules on Twitter. During the match weapons will be brought down to the ring one after the other. Every time a new weapon appears, To-y and Takagi will play a gambling game and only the winner gets to use the weapon. If the loser takes the weapon and uses it instead, they will be disqualified. The usual victory conditions for a wrestling match still apply. With these rules, To-y promises to extinguish Takagi’s fire!

The match between Konosuke Takeshita and Antonio Honda turned into a partial Happy Motel reunion because was at ringside Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi to watch it up close (the missing member Tetsuya Endo is currently ill and I’m unsure if he could have shown up for this). He also got involved by joining in the Gongitsune spot and later slamming Takeshita so Honda would have a better chance at winning. Takeshita ended up using his own Bionic Elbow to defeat Honda’s version before pinning him with the Raging Fire. After the match Takeshita told fans about the existence of Happy Motel and how it turned out to be one of DDT’s least popular units in history. He spent the most important parts of his early twenties being in the group but it was worth it to him because he learned so much from Honda and Hiroshi. The lessons they taught him he still uses today in America and New Japan. Honda was happy to hear that because Happy Motel’s failure still springboarded Takeshita out into the world. Honda also feels like the happiest wrestler in the world because somebody like him got to wrestle against the world famous Takeshita in front of a wonderful audience that all came to see him.

Takeshita promise to use today’s match as motivation for his next IWGP World Heavyweight Title defence at the Tokyo Dome on 4th January. He later said not one moment in his pro wrestling career has been wasted. The reason he has this championship is because he loves pro wrestling. And while he is in DDT revisiting everyone who has helped make him stronger, he next wants to have another singles match with Shinya Aoki! The two last fought each other in Las Vegas back in April but after last week’s Sumo Hall show Aoki also made a comment about wanting to face Takeshita again. DDT have booked the match for 30th November at Korakuen and it will be their first singles bout together since January, 2022.

A flu bug seems to have hit the roster coming out of Sumo Hall. MAO and Yuki Iino had already pulled out of today’s show due to illness but KANON, Akito and Yukio Naya all ended up missing the show too (Endo is also being taken off this weekend’s NOAH show for having the flu). The main members of Strange Love Connection being absent meant KIMIHIRO was at the show by himself with nothing to do. He was given a spot in the middle of the show to perform a rap in the ring but DAMNATION T.A suddenly ran out and attacked him! Hideki Okatani in particular roughed him up with a bamboo stick while Daisuke Sasaki complained that SLC should give up the KO-D Tag Team Titles if they’re not going to show up and get in the ring! Later backstage Okatani brought up how Sasaki broke a rib the last time they fought for the KO-D Tag Titles and he came back to fight again so being sick should be no excuse for MAO & KANON to miss matches. Their challenge was granted and they will face SLC for the KO-D Tag Titles on 30th November.

Another wrestler from DAMNATION T.A caused trouble earlier in the show. Ilusion ran out after the second match and attacked Kumadori at ringside. They went back into the ring where Kumadori tried to spark a comeback but Ilusion cut him off with a Low Blow and then attacked him with a chair. Ilusion explained to Kumadori that he’s just teaching him how painful pro wrestling is and he will drive him into a pro wrestling depression! Kumadori promised to get revenge and he will beat up Ilusion when the time comes.

In the opening match Takeshi Masada stopped Kazuki Hirata from putting on the Hirata GO! glasses because he wanted to see Hirata be cool instead. Demus got his hands on the glasses but refused to put them on because he had his own pair designed in the colours of the Mexican flag. Ilusion gave them to him and when Demus put them on “Escándalo” by Le Sonora Dinamita started playing while everyone in the ring danced with each other for about twenty seconds before Demus attacked Hirata and pinned him with La Valagueza.
