BREAKING: DDT Veteran Retiring

DDT held an emergency press conference earlier today, which was for a surprise announcement: Yukio Sakaguchi will retire on 2/7. A translation of a news item on DDT’s website indicates it is for personal reasons. Sakaguchi, 50, is the son of legendary wrestler Seiji Sakaguchi and has been active since 2007. No retirement tour or anything like that and a retirement match is TBA but based on what he requested, it could be a match against HARASHIMA or Hideki Okatani. (Edit: It will be HARASHIMA)

More as it becomes available.

New Japan Pro Wrestling “Battle In The Valley 2024” Results (1/13/24)

New Japan is back in the US for their first international event of the year, Battle In The Valley 2024. As usual they have loaded the card with a mix of wrestlers from Japan, the LA Dojo, partner and independent promotions and more. This year’s event is headlined by what is being billed as Will Ospreay’s last single match in New Japan (at least as a full-time member) before he jumps full-time to All Elite Wrestling next month, and it’s against none other than Kazuchika Okada. The co-main event sees a rematch between Shingo Takagi & Jon Moxley, not surprisingly it will be a No DQ match. Elsewhere, STRONG Openweight Champion Eddie Kingston will defend that title and his AEW Continental Crown (including the AEW Continental Championship and Ring Of Honor World Championship) against Gabriel Kidd while STRONG Women’s Champion Giulia defends her title against rising indy sensation Trish Adora. Bullet Club will also try to win the STRONG Tag Team Championship as Alex Coughlin & Clark Connors challenge Hikuleo & El Phantasmo, but it’s not a double title match so no IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championship on the line. That and plenty more to kick off a big international 2024 for the promotion.

Today’s event will be held at the San Jose Civic Center in San Jose, CA and can be watched LIVE on TrillerTV (fka FITE) in English for $19.99. IT IS NOT AVAILABLE LIVE ON NEW JAPAN WORLD OUTSIDE JAPAN. You get the live broadcast and unlimited on demand replays with purchase. There will also be a FREE 30 minute pre-show before the event. None of the title matches have more than a 30 minute time limit and neither do any matches except the last 2 (1 Hour), so including the pre-show I predict the event will have a total running time of around 3 1/2 hours. The longest it could possibly go is roughly 5 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Pre-show:
Matt Vandagriff vs. Goldy
Viva Van vs. Stephanie Vaquer
PPV:
Shota Umino, Fred Rosser & Jacob Fatu vs. Tom Lawlor, Royce Isaacs & Jorel Nelson
Mascara Dorada & Volador Jr. vs. Rocky Romero & Soberano Jr.
TJP vs. David Finlay
STRONG Tag Team Champions El Phantasmo & Hikuleo vs. Alex Coughlin & Clark Connors for the titles
STRONG Women’s Champion Giulia vs. Trish Adora for the title
Matt Riddle & TBA vs. Bad Dude Tito & Zack Sabre Jr.
STRONG Openweight Champion & AEW Continental Crown Champion Eddie Kingston vs. Gabriel Kidd for the titles
Shingo Takagi vs. Jon Moxley in a No DQ match
Will Ospreay vs. Kazuchika Okada

Updates below will begin at 6:30 PM PT/9:30 PM ET.

6:30 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from San Jose Civic Center in San Jose, CA. Your hosts are Walker Stewart & Veda Scott.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. They say it’s a legit sellout, if so that means 2100. As of midday today the last number I had was 2050 and they’re still filing in but it’s going to be right around 2100. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 2147, a legit sellout. That means they added some capacity, the original setup was for 2100)

Pre-show:
Match 1; Matt Vandagriff vs. Goldy. 20 minute time limit
Result: Matt Vandagriff beat Goldy

Match 2: Viva Van vs. Stephanie Vaquer. 20 minute time limit

Result: Shota Umino, Fred Rosser & Jacob Fatu beat Tom Lawlor, Royce Isaacs & Jorel Nelson. Umino pinned Isaacs after a double arm DDT.
After the match, while he was celebrating with the fans, Umino was sneak attacked and laid out by Jack Perry, normally part of All Elite Wrestling but not with them although he reportedly is no longer suspended after a backstage altercation with CM Punk last year. Perry held up an AEW contract and tore it up in the ring before producing and donning an armband reading “SCAPEGOAT”. Jungle Boy may officially be no more and no longer All Elite.

Match 2: Mascara Dorada & Volador Jr. vs. Rocky Romero & Soberano Jr.. 20 minute time limit
Result: Mascara Dorada & Volador Jr. beat Rocky Romero & Soberano Jr. Volador pinned Romero after a Canadian destroyer.

Result: STRONG Tag Team Champions El Phantasmo & Hikuleo beat Alex Coughlin & Clark Connors to retain the titles. Hikuleo pinned Coughlin after Super Thunder Kiss 86. V4 for the champs.

Match 5: STRONG Women’s Champion Giulia vs. Trish Adora for the title. 30 minute time limit
Result: STRONG Women’s Champion Giulia beat Trish Adora to retain the title. V8 for Giulia. So maybe she’s not going to WWE yet. (She is technically a freelancer now although she has made some appearances in Stardom since disbanding her Donna Del Mundo faction)

Video promo from…Mustafa Ali! He does a Presidential campaign-style promo to call out Hiromu Takahashi for a match at Windy City Riot on 4/12 in Chicago, IL. I am all for Ali in New Japan! Or anywhere besides WWE for that matter.

Match 6: Matt Riddle & TBA vs. Bad Dude Tito & Zack Sabre Jr.. 30 minute time limit. TBA is…if a botched graphic during Riddle’s intro is true…and it is…Jeff Cobb.
Result: Matt Riddle & Jeff Cobb beat Zack Sabre Jr. & Bad Dude Tito. Riddle pinned Tito after Bro Derek.

Match 7: STRONG Openweight Champion & AEW Continental Crown Champion Eddie Kingston vs. Gabriel Kidd for the titles. 30 minute time limit
Result: STRONG Openweight Champion & AEW Conitinental Crown Champion Eddie Kingston beat Gabriel Kidd by countout to retain the titles. V10 for Kingston. They kept brawling at the end before Clark Connors & Alex Coughlin joined in for the heel beatdown on Kingston.

Match 8: Shingo Takagi vs. Jon Moxley in a No DQ match. 1 Hour time limit
Result: Jon Moxley beat Shingo Takagi. YOU. SICK. F*CKS! Yeah, there was a little blood and gore.But incredible nonetheless.
Afterwards, Moxley with microphone. It didn’t work at first but Moxley acknowledged it was his fault for not pressing the button. He called out Tetsuya Naito. HOLY SH*T!!!

Quick break for ring cleaning.

It’s Now Official…Naito-Moxley on 4/12 in Chicago (NON-TITLE match for now) as well as Mustafa Ali vs. Hiromu Takahashi. The biggest NJPW STRONG event ever as they’ve been billing it…Definitely!

Main Event: Will Ospreay vs. Kazuchika Okada. 1 Hour time limit
Result: Kazuchika Okada beat Will Ospreay. They went almost 30 minutes. After the match Bullet Club hit the ring for a beatdown on Ospreay. After a couple minutes TJP, Jeff Cobb & Eddie Kingston ran out to make the save. Once he recovered, Ospreay with microphone. He ran down Bullet Club ahead of 2/11 in Osaka and told Kingston “I owe you one”. He then thanked the fans and touched on his 8 years in New Japan as he prepares to move to All Elite Wrestling next month and also puts Okada over. He finishes by building up his final NJPW match on 2/11, which will be a steel cage match. His NSFW choice words about that match got a huge pop to finish his final promo and send the crowd home happy.

End Show.

The next event is THE NEW BEGINNING IN NAGOYA on 1/20 at Aichi Prefectural Gym in Aichi. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at midnight PT/3 AM ET.

All-Japan Pro Wrestling 1/14/24 Results

All-Japan continues their year-opening New Year Excite Series 2024 tour today with a Masanobu Fuchi 50th Anniversary & 70th Birthday event. The septuagenarian and once Jr. Heavyweight legend still makes an occasional appearance here & there but mostly works behind-the-scenes now. He gets the main event treatment today, facing the winner of an 8-man battle royal immediately before that. Also today, Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori get their prize for winning the Real World Tag League at the end of 2023, which is a shot at All-Japan World Tag Team Champions Jun & Rei Saito. A GAORA TV Championship match is also on tap as new champion Black Menso-re defends against Seigo Tachibana.

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on AJPW.TV in Japanese. There was a last-minute addition of an Actress Girls Provided Match that may be a pre-show match to start the event. Most of the matches are 1 Hour or No Time Limit so it’s hard to predict exactly how long the event will run, but I’m going to guess just under 3 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Pre-Show: Actress Girls Provided Match: Mio (?) & Sakura Mizushima vs. MARU & Anka Iwai (?)
Dan Tamura, Atsuki Aoyagi, Rising Hayato & Ryo Inoue vs. Koji Iwamoto, Kotaro Suzuki, Hikaru Sato & Fuminori Abe
Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Osamu Nishimura vs. Ren Ayabe & Naruki Doi
GAORA TV Champion Black Menso-re vs. Seigo Tachibana for the title
All-Japan World Tag Team Champions Jun & Rei Saito vs. Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori for the titles
Fuchi Rumble Battle Royal. Staggered entry. Over the top rope eliminations only. Participants: Kento Miyahara, Yuma Aoyagi, Suwama, Shotaro Ashino, Ryuki Honda, Yuma Anzai, Minoru Suzuki, Hideki Suzuki. Order of entry TBA today
Masanobu Fuchi 50th Anniversary & 70th Birthday Match: Masanobu Fuchi vs. the Fuchi Rumble winner

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 6:30 PM PT/9:30 PM ET.

6:28 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan. Muted for opening announcements.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. Haven’t gotten a good look at the crowd yet. There we go…Crowd still filing in but looks like a full house/near sellout so probably in the 1300 range.

Actress Girls performance and match opens the event.

Pre-Show: Actress Girls Provided Match: Mii & Sakura Mizushima vs. MARU & Kyoka Iwai
Result: Mii & Sakura Mizushima beat MARU & Kyoka Iwai. Mii pinned MARU with a rollup.

Before the event officially begins, Masanobu Fuchi comes out. A video package of congratulatory messages for Fuchi, including from Kenta Kobashi, is played. Then Atsushi Onita comes out with a couple of fellow dignitaries for the customary flower presentations to Fuchi. Onita is almost certainly headed to Kanagawa right after this for the DDT event he is part of.

The matches begin at 7:02 PM PT.

Match 1: Dan Tamura, Atsuki Aoyagi, Rising Hayato & Ryo Inoue vs. Koji Iwamoto, Kotaro Suzuki, Hikaru Sato & Fuminori Abe. 30 minute time limit
Result: Koji Iwamoto, Kotaro Suzuki, Hikaru Sato & Fuminori Abe beat Dan Tamura, Atsuki Aoyagi, Rising Hayato & Ryo Inoue. Iwamoto pinned Tamura.

Match 2: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Osamu Nishimura vs. Ren Ayabe & Naruki Doi (independent/Freelancer). 30 minute time limit
Result: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Osamu Nishimura beat Ren Ayabe & Naruki Doi. Kuroshio pinned Ayabe. As usual Kuroshio’s entrance probably went longer than the whole match.

Match 3: GAORA TV Champion Black Menso-re vs. Seigo Tachibana for the title. 1 Hour time limit
Result: Seigo Tachibana beat GAORA TV Champion Black Menso-re to win the title. Tachibana becomes the 25th GAORA TV Champion. That was the 3rd-shortest title reign to date at just 12 days. And just one day shorter than the 4th shortest.

Match 4: All-Japan World Tag Team Champions Jun & Rei Saito vs. Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori for the titles. 1 Hour time limit
Result: All-Japan World Tag Team Champions Jun & Rei Saito beat Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori to retain the titles. Rei Saito pinned Nakajima after an open palm lariat. V3 for the champs. The fact that Nakajima was the one beaten here is HUGE. I can see Rei making a challenge to Nakajima if he retains the Trriple Crown against Shotaro Ashino later this month.

Rising Hayato joins commentary.

Match 5: Fuchi Rumble Battle Royal. Staggered entry. Over the top rope eliminations only. Participants: Kento Miyahara, Yuma Aoyagi, Suwama, Shotaro Ashino, Ryuki Honda, Yuma Anzai, Minoru Suzuki, Hideki Suzuki. No time limit
Order of entry: Yuma Anzai, Ryuki Honda, Hideki Suzuki, Yuma Aoyagi, Shotaro Ashino, Kento Miyahara, Minoru Suzuki, Suwama.
Order of elimination: Honda by Miyahara, Suwama by Hideki Suzuki, Hideki Suzuki by Aoyagi, Aoyagi by Ashino, Ashino by Miyahara, Minoru Suzuki by Anzai, Miyahara by Anzai
Result: Yuma Anzai wins. As a result, Anzai will face Masanobu Fuchi in the main event. Which led to…

Main Event: Masanobu Fuchi 50th Anniversary & 70th Birthday Match: Masanobu Fuchi vs. Yuma Anzai. No time limit
Result: Yuma Anzai beat Masanobu Fuchi

The next event is 1/27 at Esforta Arena Hachioji in Tokyo with Nakajima vs. Ashino for the Triple Crown and Tamura vs. Iwamoto for the All-Japan World Jr. Heavyweight Championship. Live streaming on AJPW.TV will begin on 1/26 at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.

TNA Wrestling “Hard To Kill 2024” Results (1/13/24)

Formerly Impact Wrestling, TNA has rebranded to its old identity and that kicks into full gear tonight with Hard To Kill, the promotion’s first quarterly PPV of the year. The old logo is back and new title belts were unveiled and the majority of the roster is back along with some new additions, but also some departures (Deonna Purrazzo) and rumors of more to come (the dirt sheets say Trinity may be headed back to WWE soon). The current lineup consists of roughly 10 matches and a surprise debut that TNA says “You won’t believe who is showing up”. Rumors run the gamut as to who it will be, I personally am betting it will be Nic Nemeth, fka Dolph Ziggler in WWE, but we shall see. Almost all the promotion’s titles are on the line (no Knockouts Tag Team Championship match though) with the main event expected to be TNA World Champion Alex Shelley vs. Moose for the title. The event will be followed by a live event tomorrow that also will be a TV taping.
There has been a late change to the card because Trent Seven, who was to have been in a 4-way for the TNA World Tag Team Championship, is now off. Travel issues. He was to have teamed with Mike Bailey in the match. Laredo Kid is the replacement.

Today’s event will be held at the Palms Casino & Resort in Las Vegas, NV and can be watched LIVE on PPV, TNA+ and TrillerTV (fka FITE). If you are a top-tier TNA+ subscriber the event is included in your subscription-that subscription is $219.99/year. Otherwise, the PPV is $39.99. If you are a lower-tier TNA+ subscriber ($9.99/month of $95.99/year) or YouTube Ultimate Insider subscriber (the YouTube subscription plans will continue although it was never mentioned in TNA+ announcements, it remains $4.99/month), you should be able to watch on demand in 30 days. There will be a pre-show as well, on TNA+ it will be 1 hour for subscribers while on TrillerTV it will be free but is only listed as 30 minutes. (Last-minute update: The PPV is also available on YouTube for $39.99. Includes live broadcast and on demand replays until midnight ET Monday)

Tonight’s current lineup:
Pre-show:
TNA Digital Media Champion Tommy Dreamer vs. Crazzy Steve for the title
Eddie Edwards & Brian Myers vs. Eric Young & Frankie Kazarian
Rich Swann vs. Steve Maclin
PPV:
A Mystery Appearance
PCO vs. Dirty Dango
Knockouts Ultimate X. Participants: Tasha Steelz, Gisele Shaw, Alisha Edwards, Jody Threat, Xia Brookside, Dani Luna. Winner gets a TNA Knockouts Championship shot anytime, anywhere they choose
TNA World Tag Team Champions Ace Austin & Chris Bey vs. Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz, Grizzled Young Vets and Mike Bailey & Laredo Kid in a 4-way for the titles
TNA X Champion Chris Sabin vs. KUSHIDA & El Hijo Del Vikingo for the title
Josh Alexander vs. Alexander Hammerstone
TNA Knockouts Champion Trinity vs. Jordynne Grace for the title
TNA World Champion Alex Shelley vs. Moose for the title

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 4 PM PT/7 PM ET.

Pre-show:
Steve Maclin beat Rich Swann.
Brian Myers & Eddie Edwards beat Eric Young & Frankie Kazarian.
In a No DQ Match, Crazzy Steve beat TNA Digital Media Champion Tommy Dreamer to become THE NEW TNA DIGITAL MEDIA CHAMPION!

PPV:
Match 1: Women’s Ultimate X. Participants: Tasha Steelz, Gisele Shaw, Alisha Edwards, Jody Threat, Xia Brookside, Dani Luna
Result: Gisele Shaw wins. As a result, Shaw gets a TNA Knockouts Championship match anytime, anywhere she wants

Match 2: PCO vs. Dirty Dango
Result: PCO beat Dirty Dango by DQ. Which led to…
Impromptu Match: PCO, Rhino & Jake Something vs. Dirty Dango, Alpha Bravo & Oleg Prudius
Result: PCO, Rhino & Jake Something beat Dirty Dango, Alpha Bravo & Oleg Prudius

Match 3: TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions Masha Slamovich & Killer Kelly vs. Rosemary & Havok (Jessicka) for the titles
Result: Rosemary & Havok beat TNA Knockouts Tag Team Champions Masha Slamovich & Killer Kelly to become THE NEW TNA KNOCKOUTS TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!

TNA & AAA (Mexico) extend their working partnership and talent exchange agreements.

Match 4: TNA X Champion Chris Sabin vs. KUSHIDA & El Hijo Del Vikingo in a 3-way for the title
Result: TNA X Champion Chris Sabin beat KUSHIDA & El Hijo Del Vikingo in a 3-way to retain the title.

Match 5: Josh Alexander vs. Alexander Hammerstone

Xia Brookside has signed with TNA.

Match 6: TNA World Tag Team Champions Ace Austin & Chris Bey vs. Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz, Grizzled Young Vets and Mike Bailey & Laredo Kid in a 4-way for the titles
Result: TNA World Tag Team Champions Ace Austin & Chris Bey beat Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz, Grizzled Young Vets and Mike Bailey & Laredo Kid in a 4-way to retain the titles.

Match 7: TNA Knockouts Champion Trinity vs. Jordynne Grace for the title
Result: Jordynne Grace beat TNA Knockouts Champion Trinity to become THE NEW TNA KNOCKOUTS CHAMPION! Headline had the wrong result. Guess Trinity’s headed back to WWE?

This may or may not be that “you won’t believe who shows up” person but before the last match, they showed former WWE wrestler Dana Brooke in the front row. If that’s who it is…major letdown.

Main Event: TNA World Champion Alex Shelley vs. Moose for the title
Result: Moose beat TNA World Champion Alex Shelley to become THE NEW TNA WORLD CHAMPION! And to imagine when he won the title shot in the Feast Or Fired match he was disappointed and didn’t seem to want it! (He was hoping for the Tag Team Title shot with Brian Myers instead)

They saved “you won’t believe who shows up” for last after this…SHOW OFF!!! It’s Nic Nemeth! He hit Zig Zag on Moose then walked into the crowd and tore his top off to reveal a TNA shirt underneath and likely send the crowd home-or at least back into the casino-happy.

End Show.
