Injury Report: Herniamao

And another DDT injury breaking now…the promotion just announced Kazusada Higuchi is now out of action in another big blow to the company. Cervical hernia. Out indefinitely but “a while”, which probably means a few months.

More as it becomes available.

DEVELOPING: GLEAT Title Vacated

GLEAT fans haven’t seen much of the Lidet UWF Championship lately since it had been around the waist of Fujita “Jr.” Hayato of Michinoku Pro Wrestling. That changed today…at a Michinoku Pro event it was announced the Lidet UWF Championship is now VACANT. Hayato vacated the title because of being out an unknown period of time due to illness. He had held the title since July 2023 but only made one successful defense as UWF fights take a backseat to G PROWRESTLING and are only featured every few events. No word yet on plans to crown a new champion.

DDT 6/21/24 Results

Because The37Kamiina are all about saunas and Heat Wave WER!!, DDT held a single-match “Sauna Wrestling” event today to again show off the wackiness that is DDT.

Today’s event was held at Aqua Eucalyptus in Chiba and will be available on demand somewhere at a later date. There was no live broadcast, but it was going to be “filmed and streamed”.

The announced paid attendance was 91.

Match Result: In a Falls Count Anywhere Elimination Match, DDT Extreme Champion Shunma Katsumata beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Kazuma Sumi, Illusion, Yukio Naya & To-y to retain the title and win the Iron Man Title. Katsumata becomes the 1644th Champion. Order of elimination: Naya by everyone, Illusion by To-y by ref stoppage (TKO), To-y by Katsumata & Sumi, Sumi by Katsumata. Katsumata wins. V4 for Katsumata. The match, once it began, went just over 55 minutes.

The next event is a special mini-event tomorrow at Machida GION Stadium in Tokyo followed by an event later that day at Osaka Prefectural Gym 2 in Osaka. For Tokyo, this is a free event but is weather permitting due to being outdoors so it may be cancelled if it rains. There will be no live broadcasts. For Osaka, it will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Tuesday.

Injury Report: Would A Sauna Day Help?

DDT has announced some last-minute changes for upcoming events following their special “Sauna wrestling” event today…maybe it would have helped Yuki Ueno because the KO-D Openweight Champion is temporarily on the sidelines. Fever. Out tomorrow and Sunday. Precautionary at this time. With at least a week until the next event after these Ueno should be fine going forward, as long as it doesn’t become coronavirus, but at least the next title match is a month away.

More as it becomes available.

AEW Dynamite 6/19/24 Results

MJF beat Rush.

Swerve Strickland-Will Ospreay promo.

Mark Briscoe, Kyle O’Reilly, Orange Cassidy & Dante Martin beat Konosuke Takeshita, Kyle Fletcher, Roderick Strong & Zack Sabre Jr. Cassidy pinned Strong after Orange Punch.

The Acclaimed beat AEW Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks in a NON-TITLE match. But since this was that Eliminator gimmick, and it’s perhaps the first time the champs were beaten in one, as a result The Acclaimed get a future AEW Tag Team Title shot.

Toni Storm-Mina Shirakawa contract signing for Forbidden Door. Afterwards, Saraya, Harley Cameron & Anna Jay came out for a brawl.

Owen Hart Cup Women’s Quarterfinals: Kris Statlander beat Nyla Rose. As a result, Statlander advances to the Semifinals and will likely face the Willow Nightingale-Serena Deeb winner.

Daniel Garcia beat Rhett Titus. Squash.

Owen Hart Cup Men’s Quarterfinals: Pac beat Claudio Castagnoli. As a result, Pac advances to the Semifinals and will face the Bryan Danielson-Shingo Takagi winner.

Friday on Rampage: Private Party vs. Komander & Metalik, Shingo Takagi vs. AR Fox, Nightingale-Deeb in the Owen Hart Cup Quarterfinals and Lio Rush vs. Action Andretti in an AEW TNT Championship Ladder Match Qualifier.

Saturday on a TAPED Collision in Allentown, PA (to be taped tomorrow): AEW International Champion Will Ospreay vs. Brian Cage for the title, AEW Continental Champion Kazuchika Okada vs. Ultimo Guerrero in a NON-TITLE match (Eliminator), Samoa Joe/Hook/Katsuyori Shibata vs. Premier Athletes and Private Party vs. Big Bill & Chris Jericho. They may also tape next week’s Rampage tomorrow. No word on why Collision isn’t live this week as there are no sports conflicts (NBA is done, NHL Finals Fame 6 is Friday, no soccer on TNT). The next live Collision probably will be July 6.

Next week: Swerve Strickland & Will Ospreay vs. Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun, Toni Storm/Mariah May/Mina Shirakawa vs. Saraya/Harley Cameron/Anna Jay and Jay White vs. Rey Fenix in an Owen Hart Cup Quarterfinals match. Next week’s Collision is also TAPED (will be taped after Dynamite), probably because the following weekend is Forbidden Door.
