DDT wraps up July today with their monthly Tokyo signature event. This is the last such event before WRESTLE PETER PAN, the promotion’s biggest annual event, coming up in just under 3 weeks. Today’s event has 2 title matches scheduled-first is a KO-D Tag Team Championship match with Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA defending the titles against Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku, then it’s a DDT Extreme Championship match with Hideki Okatani defending the title against Yuki Ishida. The stip, as chosen by the challenger, is that if Ishida loses the match and thus doesn’t win the title, he loses his hair. The main event is a WRESTLE PETER PAN planned main event preview of Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata vs. MAO & KANON. However, with the two “Money In The Bank” title shot rights for the KO-D Openweight Championship out there that must be used in the next 2 months, there’s no guarantee Ueno will make it to his August title defense against MAO as champion. Or even out of today. But there’s also a right to challenge for one of the rights too so one of said rights holders may have to defend that too. The current title shot rights holders are Katsumata & Viento Levante, while the right to challenge for rights holder is Rukiya. Katsumata having the rights for now means Ueno had better watch his back today in the main event…

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in Japanese. Miyuki Suzuki, a Japanese comedian and member of comedy group Nagon, will be a special guest on commentary. There is a pre-show match scheduled before the event so, taking that into account, this will be slightly longer than a normal Korakuen event with a probably running time of just under 3 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Pre-show:
Antonio Honda, Masami Inahata & Hinata Kasai vs. Naomi Yoshimura, Yuni & Rukiya*

Main Show:
Shinya Aoki vs. Junta Miyawaki
Minoru Suzuki & Jun Akiyama vs. Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno
Daisuke Sasaki & Illusion vs. Yukio Naya & Viento Levante**
Kazuma Sumi, Kazuki Hirata & To-y vs. Daichi Sato, Takao Soma & O-MENZ Kumadori
KO-D Tag Team Champions Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA vs. Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku for the titles
DDT Extreme Champion Hideki Okatani vs. Yuki Ishida for the title. If Ishida loses, he loses his hair
Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata*** vs. MAO & KANON

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 7 PM PT/10 PM ET. The pre-show match is scheduled to begin at 7:10 PM PT/10:10 PM ET. The main show will begin at 7:30 PM PT/10:30 PM ET.

*-If Yoshimura/Yuni/Rukiya lose and Rukiya is the one beaten for the loss, whoever pinned/submitted Rukiya wins the right to challenge for the title shot rights from Rukiya.
**-If Naya/Levante lose and Levante is the one beaten for the loss, whoever pinned/submitted Levante wins the right to challenge from Levante
***-if Ueno/Katsumata lose BEFORE Katsumata cashes in his title shot right IF HE DOES and if Katsumata is the one beaten for the loss, whoever pinned/submitted Katsumata wins the right to challenge from Katsumata. Whoever holds either right can cash it in for a KO-D Openweight Championship match against Ueno anytime, anywhere. So until both happen or the time limit to use them passes, “card subject to change” cannot be over-emphasized. It could even mean impromptu matches after the main event.

7 PM PT UPDATE: The live stream has begun. We should be going to the venue in 10 minutes.

7:07 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan. Commentary will start in a couple minutes.

The paid attendance will not be announced after the event as they stopped doing that late last year. Not an advance sellout though.

Pre-show:
The dark match starts 2 minutes early. Your hosts are Satoshi Dairaku & Kagehiro Osano, to be joined later by Haruo Murata.

Pre-show match: Antonio Honda, Masami Inahata & Hinata Kasai vs. Naomi Yoshimura, Yuni & Rukiya. 15 minute time limit
Result: Antonio Honda, Masami Inahata & Hinata Kasai beat Naomi Yoshimura, DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Yuni & Rukiya, when Honda pinned Rukiya to win the title. Honda becomes the 1843rd Champion.

GM Imabayashi appears before the main show begins for opening announcements before bringing out Up Up Girls from Tokyo Joshi Pro-Miu Watanabe, Raku & Uta Takami-to promote the TIF2026 featuring TJPW from 7/31-8/2.

As this wraps up, Antonio Honda gets into the ring. This can’t end well…and it doesn’t because…
Raku beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Antonio Honda to win the title. Raku becomes the 1844th Champion. Now she MUST be protected from Mahiro Kiryu at all costs!

Result: Minoru Suzuki & Jun Akiyama beat Sanshiro Takagi & Danshoku Dieno. Akiyama beat Dieno with a front neck lock. Afterwards, GM Imabayashi with microphone. Based on backstage video before the match, this probably cost Takagi a spot on the WRESTLE PETER PAN card. Although Suzuki quickly intervened and demanded a tag match with Takagi as his partner. Agreed to.

Match 3: Daisuke Sasaki & Illusion vs. Yukio Naya & Viento Levante (who needs to update his jacket, it still says Viento Maligno). 30 minute time limit

Result: KO-D Tag Team Champions Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA beat Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku to retain the titles. HARASHIMA beat Koroku with an armbar. V3 for the champs. Next up: Aoki & Miyawaki.

DDT ran the second half of their Beer Garden Pro Wrestling doubleheader today in Tokyo.

Today’s event was held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The paid attendance was not announced but it was a legit advance sellout.

There was a last-second change made to the main event as the match began-it was changed to a Falls Count Anywhere match.

Match 4: Kaisei Takechi vs. GM Imabayashi went to a draw. Some weird comedy match.

Match 5: In a Blondfolded Breast Hiding Match, where all wrestlers were blindfolded and the first to strip another of their bra wins, Masami Inahata beat Kazuki Hirata, Yuki Ueno & Junta Miyawaki in a 4-way by stripping Ueno. As a result, Inahata earns the second “Money In The Back” title shot right. Afterwards, Illusion appeared and teased using his right to challenge for said title shot rights, but didn’t.

Main Event: In a Falls Count Anywhere Match, KO-D 6-Man Tag Tram Champions Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato beat Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Anyonio Honda to retain the titles. Sato pinned Honda after a diving body press onto a table. V6 for the champs. That ties the record for most title defenses in a reign. Next up: Levante, Naya & KANON. That match will happen on 8/11 at Ryogoku Kokugikan. Also added to 8/11 is Daisuke Sasaki & DOUKI (New Japan) vs. Antonio Honda & Tetsuya Endo.

DDT kicked off a Beer Garden Pro Wrestling doubleheader in Tokyo today, perhaps their last one in Shinjuku.

Today’s event was held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

As a result, Katsumata earns a “Money In The Bank” title shot right for the KO-D Openweight Championship over the next couple months. The post-match celebration was crashed by Illusion, who created his own version and got it approved by GM Imabayashi and can use it starting tomorrow.

The next event is tomorrow. It is also a legit advance sellout. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET.

UPDATE: Clarification on Illusion-it appears he created a means to challenge anytime anywhere for the rights to challenge for the title shot anytime anywhere, as long as it’s within the current fiscal year, although the title challenges via the rights must happen by 9/27. (Confused?)

For the last couple years DDT has been doing a variant of the WWE “Money In The Bank” gimmick that gives the holder a title shot anytime, anywhere they want. It’s back for this year but with some changes from last year’s memorable series, which culminated in Kazuki Hirata becoming KO-D Openweight Champion (and making one successful defense). Here’s the plan for this year:
Last year there were 3 such title shot rights awarded. This year there will be just 2.
This year they can be cashed in only for a KO-D Openweight Championship match. Last year it was for any DDT title.
They will again be defended and lost like last year, meaning if a rights holder is beaten in a single match, or is pinned/submitted/DQ’d/etc in a tag match, whoever beat them gets the rights.
They will be awarded on 7/15 and 7/16. On 7/15 there will be a 5-way for the first one involving Daisuke Sasaki, Chris Brookes, Kazuma Sumi, MAO & Shunma Katsumata. On 7/16 there will be a 4-way Blondfolded Breast-Hide Deathmatch for the second one involving Yuki Ueno, Kazuki Hirata, Junta Miyawaki & Masami Inahata.

Keep in mind that Ueno is already scheduled to defend the title against MAO on 8/11 so, especially with both in matches for the rights, card subject to change.

DDT finishes up their June schedule today with the monthly signature Tokyo event. The main event will be a KO-D Openweight Championship match as Yuki Ueno looks to keep his reign going towards his upcoming 10th Anniversary event, today defending against former champion Shinya Aoki. The rest of the card is highlighted by what may be the first-ever No Referee Match between Sanshiro Takagi & MAO. So how will a winner be decided, you ask? By the fans. The fans will act as referees and a majority will be required to count a pinfall to win. No DQ’s no countouts, no submissions, but if the majority can’t decide? Well…Pro Wrestling, Everybody!

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in Japanese. Comedian Yui Yoshida will be a special guest on commentary. There is a pre-show match planned before the event begins, so taking that and time limits into account this will be on the slightly longer end of a normal Korakuen event with a running time or probably just under 3 hours.

Pre-show:
Junta Miyawaki & Viente Maligno vs. Akito & Miles Karu

Match 2: Minoru Suzuki, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata vs. Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata. 15 minute time limit
Result: Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata beat Kazuki Hirata in 8 seconds. Hirata didn’t even wait for the others. Akiyama pinned Hirata after a lariat. GM Imabayashi immediately with microphone EN FUEGO. We know where this is going. Imabayashi somehow restraining Hirata from going after the others again. Lots of comedy between them. Which lewd to…
Match 2 (again): Minoru Suzuki, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata vs. Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata. 15 minute time limit
Result: Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata beat Kazuki Hirata in a few seconds (again). Akiyama pinned Hirata (again). While Dieno came out…

Result: Jun Akiyama, Rukiya & Masami Inahata beat Minoru Suzuki, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata. Rukiya beat Hirata with a camel clutch.

Quick break for the opening announcements. A surprise development during these as GM Imabayashi brings out Dragon Gate wrestler YAMATO. It’s related to WRESTLE PETER PAN, DDT’s annual biggest event of the year, in August at Ryogoku Kokugikan. And we might have a clue what the deal is when Dieno comes out. And just like that, it’s now official. Danshoku Dieno vs. YAMATO.

Match 3: KANON & Yuki Iino vs. Shunma Katsumata & To-y. 30 minute time limit
Result: KANON & Yuki Iino beat Shunma Katsumata & To-y. Iino pinned To-y after a lariat. Iino wore a watch cap to conceal his odd mostly bald hairstyle for appearances in Pro Wrestling NOAH (which is starting to grow back). Which led to…
KIMIHIRO beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Shunma Katsumata to win the title. KIMIHIRO becomes the 1836th champion. In an apparent rap-off or somethign not involving wrestling. Surprisingly none of SLC tried to take it away.

Match 4: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato vs. Kazuma Sumi, Yuni & O-MENZ Kumadori. 30 minute time limit
Result: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato beat Kazuma Sumi, Yuni & O-MENZ Kumadori. Sato pinned Yuni after a rolling elbow strike. Afterawrds, Sumi with microphone. He talked about apparently defending the DDT Universal Championship elsewhere when the lights went out…when they came back on, New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Eyusuke Taguchi was in the ring as was Akito. As the assistant GM, Akito makes it official. Title match at WRESTLE PETER PAN. The Funky Weapon Formerly Known As Dropkick Master is actually a perfect fit for DDT.

Your host once again is Haruo Murata.

Match 5: MAO vs. Sanshiro Takagi in a No Referee Match. No DQs, no countouts, win by pinfall with a majority of the fans making the 3 count. 30 minute time limit. Before the match, GM Imabayashi has Yuki Ishida & Hinata Kasai do a demonstration so the crowd can practice

Afterwards, Sasaki reveals his mystery partner for a tag match against Honda and TBA at WRESTLE PETER PAN…he too went to New Japan to get his partner. DOUKI.

Main Event: KO-D Openweight Champion Yuki Ueno vs. Shinya Aoki for the title. 1 Hour time limit
Result: KO-D Openweight Champion Yuki Ueno beat Shinya Aoki by submission to retain the title. V8 for Ueno. Afterwards, GM Imabayashi with microphone. Next up: TBA. It’ll be at WRESTLE PETER PAN. But Ueno called out MAO. Sounds like we’re about to have our main event for that event. After the promos, back to Imabayashi…and it’s now official. Which means, regardless, it’s going to end with The37Kamiina still on top and thus a Heave Wave WER!!

The next event is CHARISMANIA 4, the next Daisuke Sasaki Produced event, Thursday at Shinjuku Face. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET.
