An interesting announcement from DDT today-as part of the 3/24 event at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo there will be a survey among fans in attendance at the end of the event-Continue Super Japan Pro Wrestling or End It Immediately?
For background. Super Japan is the latest Sanshiro Takagi produced independent project separate from DDT, which he started a couple years ago after taking a step back from wrestling full-time and launching M&A Pro Wrestling, promoted by DDT but featuring no DDT wrestlers aside from Takagi on these events (essentially independent). After a few events Takagi ended the project and started Super Japan to replace it, following mostly the same premise. He usually does these events every 3-4 months or so.
The vote will be majority so we’ll see what happens after the 3/24 event. (That will be a Super Japan event)
For further background from DDT’s website (machine translated from Japanese): “On March 25, 1997, DDT held a pre-flag-raising match titled “Judgment” at Hibiya Radio City. At this box office, he declared that “if the support of the majority of the audience is not obtained, the flag raising will be canceled,” and after all the games, the spectators were asked whether or not to raise the flag. As a result, the majority of support was obtained, and DDT was officially launched.”
