Guide to Japanese Wrestling 2010

[PUNQ]

Finally, here is my 2010 version of the Guide to Japanese Wrestling 2010. A little behind as you can see as it's already November that I'm startinmg this one, but I've come fairly far with the watching. Almost finished with all the January to May footage in a long and unsosial marathon swearing out loud that work interrupts my wrestling viewing in between! I hope to be finished with the 2010 stuff around March somewhere which is when the 2011 footage should start coming anyway. So expect a lot of reviews coming your way very soon! From what I've seen so far 2010 is far below even 2009 which was a fairly bad year so right now things are not looking all that good for the Japanese scene as they are struggling to find meaning in what they do.....

1. Shota Takanishi & Kenta Kakinuma -vs- Shito Ueda & Yuzuru Saito [* 3/4]

--- The young lads of Zero-One! And I've said before I'm fairly interesed in these guys to see what they can do for themselfs in the future. There are some real good quality here within the greenness these wrestlers have. They seem motivated and are headed in the right direction to make something of themselfs. Or at least giving the fans something to look forward to. Saito was especially prominent here and he seems to have totally copied KENTA in personality, look and fighting style! Worked quite well as a young cocky prick. He did get his ass kicked by the more expeirienced Shota in the end, but he got plenty of time to show he can be a badass and is not taking any shit from the others in this bout. Now I'd really like to see him in a inter-promotional fight!

11:53 of 13:31 - Takanishi pinned Saito after a Sheep Wing 2

 

 

2. Kamikaze -vs- Rikiya Fudo [3/4*]

--- Two heavyweights that are not so hungry anymore. Not a bad match. Just slow and nothing to fight for. Kamikaze wins very comfortably.

4:17 of 10:55 - Kamikaze pinned Fudo after a moonsault

 

 

3. Masato Tanaka & Kintaro Kanemura -vs- Mr.X (Fujita) & Mr.XX (Sugawara) [*]

--- Tanaka & Kanemura celebrating their FMW ways and Minoru Fujita and Takuya Sugawara doing meaningless masked gimmicks looking even more stale then their usual act. The execution looked mostly comicly bad as Kanemura doesn't have it anymore and he also had a very bad shoulder most of the match being barely able to use one of his arms. But it did have some isolated coolness to it. Like the Hardcore Brothers double top rope table crasher and Tanaka bringing in the Korakuen Hall steel door and hanged it on the ropes as a weapon. But the coolest one of all wasn't any of the wrestlers. No, that was a fan who came with that moment and it was easy to miss if you didn't look closely. It was on the X's double tope spot. The fan just stood very calmly sucking his drink as the X's flew past him on each side! Anyway, Masato planted the sliding elbow to win it for the hardcore side with Kanemura holding the black box in front of Fujita X's face as Tanaka came raming in.

11:03 of 10:32 - Tanaka pinned Mr.X (Fujita) after a black box Sliding D

 

 

4. Ikuto Hidaka & Masaaki Mochizuki -vs- Fujita Jr Hayato & Munenori Sawa [**]

--- Stiffing style Battlarts fighting. Not much of a direction which was kind of where they lost the audience, but of course a lot of good kicks and a super goofy, in a good way, punching sequence from Sawa some 14 minutes in. Hayato is straight up with this kind of fighting and was one of the hardest drivers in this bout. Though the more interesting story was the two current NWA Intercontinental Tag Champions Hidaka and Sawa fighting each other with the veteran of the two ending on top using a modified version of the Prince's Throne.

16:30 of 16:31 - Hidaka pinned Sawa after the Iwami Ginzan

 

 

5. Toshiaki Kawada © -vs- Daisuke Sekimoto - (Zero-One Title) [** 1/4]

--- Kawada the old dog of a legend against the darling of indy power fighting, Sekimoto! Don't expect a fast paced slugfest. Expect a slow slugfest. Very systematic pace which didn't really highen. They just kept building in one pace going through the spots trying to make them count and things did sink in well with Kawada locking in the crab hold and Streach Plum for Sekimoto to crawl himself out of having to use a lot of power to do so. They also lad the lariats land hard. They traded the kick-outs on finishers like Sekimoto's German and Kawada's powerbomb for enticipating moments. The highlights was probable Kawada's kicks. He hit one nasty high spinkick in there and he also had to end it with that almost legendary facekick of his once he managed to knock Sekimoto off his feet. Kawada makes V2 and now Ryuji Sai wants a shot. That happens on March 2nd.

16:49 of 16:56 - Kawada pinned Sekimoto after a headkick to retain the Zero-One Title in his 2nd defence.

 

 

6. Shinjiro Otani & Akebono -vs- Kohei Sato & Ryuji Sai [* 1/2]

--- The main event because they couldn't put the Zero-One Title match in the main event as it featured two outsiders. This one though had two pure Zero-One guys in Sato & Sai against the ruler of Z-1 in Otani and his special tag partner in Yokozuna Akebono! Can't say the match took off in any way, but it was clear that the permanent midcarders Sai & Sato where the ones in control beating down Otani who was trying to get the fans behind him. Akebono came in for short superstar tags to spice things up, but it was always Sai & Sato vs Otani which was the story here. And the fans got their happy ending out of it when Otani with a little help from the big one managed to survive the beatdown and land the Spiral Bomb to pin Sato.

17:12 of 17:01 - Otani pinned Sato with a Spiral Bomb

 

 

COMMENTS: Probable the most touching about this show was the special guest sitting in front row enjoying what he was seeing. None other then Zero-One's own Naohiro Hoshikawa, who was nearly crippled years ago in a wrestling match for the promotion. He's still in rough shape, but managed to stand up for the audience and also gave a speach at the end of the show. Wrestling wise the year started on the slowish side from Zero-One, but it wasn't a terrible show. Not at all.

Keep up the awesome work, PUNQ!

[seasider]

PUNQ, this is fantastic!

 

However, I am shocked that you have not rated a Puroresu or Joshi match above ***1/2 this year!

[PUNQ]

Thanks guys! It's not the age of high-end matches anymore. Most companies and wrestlers lack a direction and it all becomes so similar when they don't have anything specific to fight for. Not even money as that part of the business has dried out too. And that's effected the in-ring product a lot in recent years. It's now well over a year since I saw the last **** match coming out of Japan and that was Nakajima vs Kenta from the February '09 Kensuke Office show.

January 2, 2010, Tokyo - Korakuen Hall (1,426 fans)

 

1. Ryuichi Sekine & Takumi Tsukamoto -vs- Craig & Kazuki Hashimoto [*]

--- Solid fighting from the youth. Big Japan's freshest rookies Tsukamoto and Hashimoto are still a bit green naturally, but did well mixing with Craig and K-Dojo's Sekine. It felt like a motivated battle and the few minutes that aired was alive with Sekine grabbing the win with backbender....

3:36 of 10:09 - Sekine made Hashimoto submit to a modified Boston Crab

 

 

2. Daikokubo Benkei & Antonio Honda -vs- Kikutaro & Yuichi Taniguchi [* 1/2]

--- I always dread the Benkei & Taniguchi comedy tags, but this one worked, but hardly because of those two. No, it was Honda and Kikutaro's tribute to old school wrestling with a comic twist that was charming about this one. Got to love the over-selling from Honda and Kikutaro trying to look tough. Kikutaro didn't end up looking very tough as he got slapped by referee Lee so that Honda could roll him up for the three count. This exceeded expectations as far as entertainment value!

11:14 of 13:05 - Honda pinned Kikutaro with a small package

 

 

3. Mens Teioh & Atsushi Ohashi & Daisuke Masaoka -vs- Onryo & Shiori Asahi & Motosugu Shimizu [* 1/4]

--- The indy speed wrestling from the associates of the Men's Club and Asahi was shining in this one really being the driving force which made this one watchable. Masaoka also seemed hyped to show off what he can do, but with Teioh half-injured and Shimizu being there I didn't get super hyped for the ending even if it was rightful that Shimizu continues to be the jobber to everyone.

7:28 of 12:31 - Teioh pinned Shimizu with the Miracle Ecstasy

 

 

4. Jun Kasai & Jaki Numazawa -vs- The Winger & Masada - (Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match) [* 1/2]

--- Hardcore brawl with a barbed wire baseball bat being the main ingredience. This did however feel like a washed up old style brawl, random and dis-coherant violence with some garbage cool mixed in to make it somewhat worthwile. But hardly a Tokyo Sports MOTY candidate for Jun Kasai this. He did get to be the star of it all and also won with the Pearl Harbor Slash on Winger with the baseball bat involved.

14:15 of 14:13 - Kasai pinned Winger after a barbed wire baseball bat top rope bodypress

 

 

5. Daisuke Sekimoto & Yoshito Sasaki & Magnitude Kishiwada -vs- Shinobu & Yuji Okabayashi & Ryuichi Kawakami [** 3/4]

--- This was more like it! Straight fighting with Sasaki and Shinobu being in a murderous mood! They worked so aggressive that it was borderline shooting on each other! Where the hell did that hate come from?! Regardless it made the match explode in parts. The Sekimoto vs regular tag partner Okabayashi exchanges was also interesting in a power fighters way. They didn't need Kishiwada and Kawakami in this one as it only watered out the good stuff and didn't live up to what the others were going here and was the reason this match was kept down. Not that they were bad. It was just below what the others were doing. But it was a lively battle and well worth your time. After a lot of hard banging Sekimoto got in the German Suplex on Oka and that was the end of it.

15:32 of 15:31 - Sekimoto pinned Okabayashi with a German Suplex

 

 

6. Yuko Miyamoto & Masashi Takeda & Isami Kodaka & Kankuro Hoshino -vs- Ryuji Ito & Takashi Sasaki & Shadow WX & Abdullah Kobayashi - (Elimination Light Tubes Death Match) [***]

--- An all-out crowd pleaser with all types of light tube weapons getting used to sword like shaped to light tube chairs and ladders. Not to mention Ito's light tube and barbed wire plant! This was a elimination style war with the Over The Top Rope rule in effect which was sadly how most of the eliminations happend. Most of the match was everyone involved and then 10 minutes of rather quick eliminations until only Isami and Abby was there with the '3-min left' call being announced over the speakers. Then Abby crashed through his own light tube bundle and Isami got the upset with a basic ground cradle. This made Isami have loads of confidence and he's now eying Miyamoto's Death Match Title. Spots of the bout was Hoshino's loaded chair senton, Sasaki's light tube powerbomb, Isami's flying chair ladder/light tube press and Ito kicking in his light tube plant into Isami's chest. Plus loads more violence to offer!

(17:49) - Shadow pinned Hoshino after a brainbuster

(19:22) - Shadow & Takeda eliminated via Over The Top Rope

[21:41) - Miyamoto eliminated Sasaki via Over The Top Rope

(23:29) - Kobayashi & Ito eliminated Miyamoto via Over The Top Rope

(25:12) - Isami eliminated Ito via Over The Top Rope

27:13 of 27:13 - Isami pinned Kobayashi with a crucifix cradle

 

 

COMMENTS: Big Japan starts the year in a ok way. Two really good matches and the comedy match worked for me, which is rare. This show was mainly about the elimination match and the heat in the semi-main event so you got something good as far as hardcore, wrestling and comedy here.

[seasider]

PUNQ, I am interested to know what you think the best era is overall for Puroresu and Joshi? I would have to say Joshi is 1992-1995 and Puroresu is 1992-1999.

[lightningxlock]

From what I've seen so far 2010 is far below even 2009 which was a fairly bad year so right now things are not looking all that good for the Japanese scene as they are struggling to find meaning in what they do.....

--PUNQ--

 

 

Im glad you've said that PUNQ. All I ever see on the internet is constant over-hyping of matches. And yes, while they're often decent and better than anything in WWE, that doesn't automatically make them 5* or MUST SEE. I'll be honest, i've watched hardly anything from Japan this year compared to previous years and I dont think im missing a great deal either

[PUNQ]

Best period was the first half og the 90's for me. It's the messuring stick. Sadly for the current scene and why they get so low ratings. They just are unable to touch what their previous generation did, but of course also the crowd atmosphere is a lot different too, so it's also harder for them to reach the hype they want.

December 13, 2009, Tokyo - Korakuen Hall (2,100 fans)

 

 

 

1. Kaz Hayashi -vs- Ryota Hama - (Chashao Rope Match) [* 1/4]

--- Hayashi's "Voodoo Rope" matches have become an annual December event now after beating Suwama and Hate in the last years. Now it's the great big pigs turn to lose. They got a fun not-so-serious bout out of it. This was a light-hearted show anyway more for laughs then the wrestling so it only followed the theme of the event. Well, Hayashi wraps Hama up and rolls him up in a schoolboy to win it as expected and Hama got to look like a fool.

9:19 of 10:07 - Hayashi pinned Hama with a roped schoolboy

 

 

2. Masa Fuchi -vs- Osamu Nishimura -vs- Shuji Kondo - (3-Way) [1/2*]

--- A 3-way more about Fuchi trying to make a speach then anything else. He was stopped everytime he grabbed the mic, but got paid for the troubles by getting to beat Nishimura with his speciality. Small package!

6:57 of 10:43 - Fuchi pinned Nishimura with a small package

 

 

 

3. Kohei Suwama & Manabu Soya -vs- Masayuki Kono & Seiya Sanada [** 1/2]

--- The only match on this December 13th show without a comic element. And it was billed as "All Japan Future" which I guess is a fitting description. Plenty of potential and guys that'll give all. And this truly was brutal at times! Many crinching moments, especially from Suwama himself being nasty to Kono & Sanada. And they're able to explode the crowd for singular moments, but they do lack execution and/or something in their personalities to maintain it over a extended periods so it's a lot of stiffing and not too interesting. However Sanada who'd been crapped on a lot in this match finally managed to get a few desperation cradles at the end this got itself a fine little hot end as the fans were eying a upset. But no such thing. Suwama killed him with a backdrop suplex and a Last Ride.

20:07 of 24:21 - Suwama pinned Sanada after a Last Ride powerbomb

 

 

January 2, 2010, Tokyo - Korakuen Hall (2,000 fans)

 

 

 

4. Shuji Kondo -vs- Yasufumi Nakanoue - (Nakanoue's Debut) [1/2*]

--- 23 year old Nakanoue makes his pro-wrestling debut. Didn't impress much at this point, but then again it's only his debut and it's the basics that's getting showed. He got in some dropkicks and elbows which didn't look super. But he kind of surprising got in a decent backdrop suplex on Kondo. But of course Kondo had this under control only letting the new guy show what he was good for before making his day miserable.

4:24 of 7:10 - Kondo made Nakanoue submit to a Boston Crab

 

 

 

5. Minoru Suzuki & Taiyo Kea & NOSAWA Rongai -vs- TARU & Rene Dupre & Hate [*]

--- Tokyo Gurentai vs Voodoo Murders in a basic. More or less a introduction and transformation of Rene Dupre who kind of takes a farewell with his old WWE gimmick and the Hustle off-shot of the tip-toeing Frenchman. Now he's a full-blooded Voodoo Murderer with red-dyed hair and darkside clothes. Well, Hate fucked it up for the Voodoo Murders anyway, but Dupre is Voodoo dedicated.

6:32 of 9:59 - Suzuki pinned Hate after a Gotch-style piledriver

 

 

 

6. Kohei Suwama & Masayuki Kono & Ryota Hama & Manabu Soya & Seiya Sanada -vs- Keiji Muto & Satoshi Kojima & Osamu Nishimura & Akebono & Masakatsu Funaki - (2/3 Falls) [**]

--- The new generation against the old stars in a 2/3 Falls bout starts off All Japan's main event season. Interesting indeed. But the match never got super good. That's nothing new with the current state of AJPW, but at least they're doing a solid job of pushing the young guys as the old fighters was stiffing their students and enjoying it. But Nishimura was unfocused and ended up getting pinned in his own inside cradle by Sanada for the 1st fall. The second one was fairly quick as Soya did his lariat wrestling on Kojima and Kojima then showing him how it's really done. the final fall Hama got the big one pinning current Triple Crown Champion Kojima with the Ryota Hammer. With some help from his team mates as they'd soften up the champ for him to be layed down. Happy for Hama!

11:51 of 14:14 - Sanada pinned Nishimura with a small package

3:15 of 3:15 - Kojima pinned Soya after a lariat

10:33 of 10:54 - Hama pinned Kojima after a Jackhammer

 

 

COMMENTS: All Japan isn't always a climatic place, but I really do like their new generation and I hope the best for them!

January 2, 2010, Tokyo - Korakuen Hall (2,000 fans)

 

1. Zodiac & Hiroshi Yamato & KAI -vs- Joe Doering & Minoru & Toshizo [1/2*]

--- Little fire at all here, but at least they made Yamato look good before he challenges for the Junior on January 11th with a win here over the masked former champion Hijikata. And his new weapon is the cross-arm German!

3:41 of 11:56 - Yamato pinned Toshizo with a cross-arm German Suplex

 

 

 

2. Kaz Hayashi © -vs- Masa Fuchi - (AJPW Junior Title) [* 3/4]

--- As far as I can tell this is the first time since 1996, when he last held the belt, that Fuchi challenges for All Japan's Junior belt. Fuchi who'd be 56 years old in just a few weeks later, is too old for a climax fight at this point in his career, so this was a very slow experience as Fuchi has no stamina or chin. He still kicked out of the Final Cut, top rope splash and a German which was Hayashi's high-end early offence. It took a while before the helpless old man could get any offence in at all, but when he did he bustest out some moves of the past by bending Hayashi over the corner ring post, then the backdrop suplexes and of course his current speciality, the small package. But that was not enough to stop the champion who with this match is closing in on Fuchi's old record or consecutive successfull defences. Fuchi managed not to die from whatever Hayashi could land, so Hayashi had to try cradles himself and that was the trick as the old man didn't have much energy left and was kind of easily pinned after a nearly half hour long bout.

22:19 of 28:51 - Hayashi pinned Fuchi with a horizontal cradle to retain the AJPW Junior Title in his 7th defence.

 

 

 

3. 17-Man Heavyweight Battle Royal [*]

--- The 32nd annual All Japan Heavyweight Battle Royal! And as always it's just a quick affair for and many eliminations as this featured 17 big guys in the ring at the same time. Of the important things saw Joe Doering pin Kojima with a Spiral Bomb before they meet for the Triple Crown on the 11th, some backbiting among the new generation and the fatboys Akebono & Hama flattening Muto & Kea. In the end there was no way of getting Akebono out of the ring so they had to let him win this year last eliminating Nishimura who just previously had rolled Hama up for the pin with a schoolboy.

0:25 - Zodiac eliminated

0:31 - TARU eliminated

1:06 - Masakatsu Funaki & Minoru Suzuki eliminated

2:42 - Yasufumi Nakanoue eliminated

3:13 - Kohei Suwama eliminated

3:46 - Seiya Sanada eliminated

3:50 - Manabu Soya eliminated

4:48 - Satoshi Kojima eliminated

5:07 - Masayuki Kono eliminated

5:12 - Joe Doering eliminated

5:30 - Rene Dupree eliminated

6:53 - Keiji Muto & Taiyo Kea eliminated

7:51 - Ryota Hama eliminated

8:03 - Osamu Nishimura eliminated

8:03 of 9:29 - Akebono win the 17-Man Heavyweight Battle Royal

 

 

January 11, 2010, Shizuoka - Hamakita Citizen Gym (2,300 fans)

 

4. Osamu Nishimura -vs- Manabu Soya [* 1/4]

--- This style rivalry continues with Nishimura and his old style actually out-wrestling Soya for the most part. Soya did get a short time on top using Riki Choshu wrestling landing the lariat and locking in the Scorpion Death Lock, but once Nishimura got out he didn't waste much time and brought out the classic cradles to beat Soya before he goes on a overseas excursion.

6:44 of 6:44 - Nishimura pinned Soya with a grounded Cobra Twist

 

 

5. Keiji Muto & Masakatsu Funaki & Seiya Sanada -vs- Minoru Suzuki & Taiyo Kea & NOSAWA Rongai [* 1/2]

--- Suzuki and Funaki started fighting way before the bell and everyone had come out for the bout and they had big problems seperating them and their hatred. So much that Funaki had to go backstage after being trapped in Suzuki's cross-armbreaker and the match started and was mostly a handicap match. Funaki didn't turn up until the 10-min mark was called and then he continued to brawl with Suzuki and Sanada was taking care of Kea which left NOSAWA helplessly alone with Muto and his Shining Wizard. I liked the match and set-up while it lasted, but since they didn't stay around for any climax part with Funaki's return it didn't reach the stars when it comes to stars.

7:08 of 10:52 - Muto pinned NOSAWA after a Shining Wizard

 

 

6. Kaz Hayashi © -vs- Hiroshi Yamato - (AJPW Junior Title) [** 1/4]

--- After retaining against the old and experienced it's time to retain against the young and inexperienced. Hayashi is the ace and treated Yamato that way too mainly being in control and inflicting the pain like on the bodyslam on the hard apron side. But they'd already established that Yamato's cross-arm German was a thing to watch out for having pinned Hayashi in the annual Junior Heavyweight Battle Royal a week previously with it. And it was the Germans that was Yamato's strong point here. Though, not the cross-arm one. But he did get in a Spider German and a double regular German Suplex for his hot moment, but Hayashi survived those and then went on to block the attempt of the cross-arm version. And then it was only a matter of time before the junior champion could beat the kid and he did so with the Power Plant! V8 for Hayashi who continues his way to becoming one of the most successful junior champs in the companys history as far as defences go.

16:05 of 17:03 - Hayashi pinned Yamato after the Power Plant to retain the AJPW Junior Title in his 8th defence.

 

 

 

COMMENTS: Always happening, but not always super wrestling. But the junior division keeps on brining the stories here with two defences from the ace himself.

January 3, 2010, Tokyo - Korakuen Hall (2,100 fans)

 

1. Masa Fuchi -vs- Yasufumi Nakanoue [1/4*]

--- Mostly headlock wrestling and Fuchi showing the rookie the basics before outs-smarting him.

6:39 of 8:12 - Fuchi pinned Nakanoue with a cradle block

 

 

 

2. Rene Dupree -vs- NOSAWA Rogai [*]

--- Dupree settling in Japanese wrestling with American style wrestling arguing with the referee and letting his pals Hate & Toshizo do damage to a helpless NOSAWA. And the rest was easy for Dupree. Simple and kind of fun bout.

4:46 of 4:45 - Dupree pinned NOSAWA after a top rope bodypress

 

 

 

3. Osamu Nishimura & Seiya Sanada -vs- Kohei Suwama & Masayuki Kono [* 3/4]

--- Technical, serious fighting. Not always exciting, but sound enough to keep it moving. It was a pure wrestling experience with Kono doing his knee attacks and Nishimura trying to hurt those knees with the figure-four. Suwama was more into clubbing his opponents down, especially Sanada. And it looked like the likely result with Suwama going for the Last Ride, but to everyones surprise Sanada slipped out of the Last Ride twice and then rolled the former Triple Crown Champion up for the major upset!

13:14 of 18:28 - Sanada pinned Suwama with a flying Japanese leg roll clutch hold

 

 

 

4. Zodiac & KAI & Hiroshi Yamato -vs- Kaz Hayashi & Ryota Hama & Akebono [**]

--- This was kind of lovely. A lot to like, both intentional and unintentional. As for the unintentional the best part was KAI being launched high and far, but not far enough for a attack and landed too short and hard for his own good. The rest of the match featured the build up for the AJPW Junior Title match between Hayashi and Yamato with Yamato's German being in focus. Otherwise the match was filled with Hama goodness~~~ And that's a good thing. Not so good, but surprising was that KAI managed to score a upset and pin Hama with a fix cradle! Damn you! Hama deserved better then that.... but the victory wasn't undeserved by KAI.

14:18 of 14:18 - KAI pinned Hama with the KAI Clutch

 

 

5. TARU & Minoru & Joe Doering -vs- Satoshi Kojima & Shuji Kondo & Manabu Soya [* 1/4]

--- Voodoo Murders vs F4 and Voodoo wants to end F4.... and this is the start of the destruction with a Death Valley end and a Spiral Bomb to finish it off with Doering coming out looking strong before he challenges Kojima for the Triple Crown. Nothing too outstanding wrestling wise, but it did the trick.

8:24 of 10:01 - Doering pinned Soya with a Spiral Bomb

 

 

6. 9-Man Junior Heavyweight Battle Royal [* 1/4]

--- The 21st annual Junior Heavyweight Battle Royal! 9 men this year fighting for the "prestiguage" honor. And this year they did a good job of pushing Yamato before his title match with Kaz Hayashi including pinning the champ with the cross-arm German Suplex to finish the royal off. NOSAWA was probable the MVP though of the early portion as he was double-crossing and pissing off so many people that he ended up eliminating himself to escape getting lynched by the others.

(1:46) - Toshizo eliminated

(1:51) - Masa Fuchi eliminated

(3:48) - KAI eliminated

(5:30) - NOSAWA Rongai eliminated

(6:58) - Minoru eliminated

(7:08) - Hate eliminated

(8:11) - Shuji Kondo eliminated

(9:19) - Kaz Hayashi eliminated

9:19 of 9:19 - Hiroshi Yamato win the 9-Man Junior Heavyweight Battle Royal

 

 

 

7. Minoru Suzuki & Taiyo Kea © -vs- Keiji Muto & Masakatsu Funaki - (AJPW Tag Title) [** 1/2]

--- Main event time and it's for the AJPW Tag Titles with the champs Suzuki & Kea defending the belts for the 5th time and it's against the Real World Tag League '09 winners Muto & Funaki! This had to have some quality. And it did. Sadly it lacked a real climax, but regardless of that the wrestling was tight and on point so one can't take the effort away from them. Suzuki and Funaki were at each others throat as usual bringing the heat. The main story ended up being Kea and his bad leg which was attacked again and again by both Muto and Funaki and that proved to be a very effective tactic for the side as Funaki ended up locking Kea in a long cross heel hold in which Kea eventaully had to submit from as Suzuki was unable to make the save being trapped in a figure-four by Muto. And that makes sure we have new champs in Muto who starts his 4th reign holding the belts and Funaki winning his first pro-wrestling belt! This also ends a 18 month regin as champs for Suzuki & Kea. By far the longest reigning AJPW Tag Champion in history of the belts since they were joint back in 1988.

26:50 of 26:50 - Funaki made Kea submit to the cross heel hold. Muto & Funaki become the 56th AJPW Tag Champions.

 

 

 

COMMENTS: Fairly solid show with a good main event to finish it off on a satifying note.

1. 13-Man New Year Kakushigei Royal Rumble [1/2*]

--- The actual Rumble only lasted 4 minutes or so. The rest was the entries. The schtick here was that the wrestlers had to display a tallent before they could enter the Rumble, so it was 20 minutes of that and 4 minutes of an actual Royal. We had the likes of Toba playing a trumpet badly, martial-artist Ogasawara needing a couple of tries of kicking apart a baseball bat. Sawa made balloon animals..... and then when they had 13 guys Sawada won it in no time.....

16:05 of 24:32 - Poison Sawada JULIE won the 13-Man New Year Kakushigei Royal Rumble

 

 

2. Danshoku Dino & Hikaru Sato & Masahiro Takanashi -vs- Dick Togo & & Antonio Handa & Sasaki&Gabbana [1/4*]

--- They had a long theatric intro as to why this match happend and it had Sato lick Dino's ass real good! "Dear diary, today I watched some men in a wrestling ring do some deep butt licking with over 1000 people watching live.....". Dick the Sniper eventually shot Dino dead. Dino emerged as Cinderella. Cinderella, mozzarella, Ken Patera.... DDT is a weird place to be.... And then they had a short match.....

3:35 of 4:22 - Dino pinned Sasaki after a Danshoku Driver

 

 

3. Ken Ohka -vs- Hoshitango [1/4*]

--- They had a movie style intro and a match with no ending except for the end credits and a lot of farting sounds......

1:27 of 1:34 - Ohka pinned Hoshitango after a top rope kneedrop

 

 

4. Kota Ibushi & Kenny Omega & KUDO & Yasu Urano -vs- Sanshiro Takagi & Mitsuya Nagai & MIKAMI & Futoshi Miwa - (Elimination) [*]

--- All the guys were doing comic book characters..... Let's just say the match was charming in it's sillyness. Miwa as that fat white cat was the highlight, but Ibushi and Takagi as aggressive bitches and KUDO's good looks where also noteworthy. Nothing serious at all unless you count Takagi doing a Death Valley on a vegetable. But entertaining it was as long as you let your mind flow free. Ibushi & Omega with their superhero powers were unstoppable though even if Omega actually eliminated himself in there on a big dive without anyone but the ref caring, so they payed a blind eye to that.

13:33 of 13:33 - Ibushi & Omega won the match last eliminating Takagi

 

 

5. Kota Ibushi & Toru Owashi & Yasu Urano & KUDO & Munenori Sawa & Kenny Omega & Kikutaro & Danshoku Dino & Michael Nakazawa & Hikaru Sato & Masahiro Takanashi & Yukihiro Abe & Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Keisuke Ishii & Ken Ohka -vs- Sanshiro Takagi & Dick Togo & Mitsuya Nagai & MIAMI & Tanomusaku Toba & Poison Sawada JULIE & Antonio Honda & Chou-un Shiryu & Hoshitango & Sasaki&Gabbana & Tomokazu Taniguchi & Rion Mizuki & Gota Ihashi & Futoshi Miwa & Takao Soma [* 1/2]

--- And as a added bonus on this surreal show we get a 30-MAN TAG!!!! They had to cover the entire apron side with wrestlers waiting for tags. And when everyone went around the arena to brawl we had Georgous Matsuno sing us ballad. They also did a chain figure-four headlock all up the steps of the Korakuen Hall so Matsuno in his yellow suit had to sing another one to fill the time. Then Kikutaro turned that chain of people into a Scorpion Death Lock! When Matsuno was finished singing the fans wanted an encore and got it! And again.... I don't know about the wrestling but this mass put a continous smile on my face. Nakazawa seemed like the likely victim as the entire Team Blue attacked him, but Nakazawa countless partners saved him and he scored the upset with a modified backslide!

14:13 of 14:12 - Nakazawa pinned Shiryu with a backslide

 

 

COMMENTS: This show had nothing to do with anything storyline wise or much to do with wrestling. It was just DDT doing a New Years variety show with a hint of wrestling. It sure was absurd, but for wrestling comedy it was more enjoyable then first feared.

WOW a 30 man tag. I remember I got some DDT tapes in back in about 1999 from direct tv, I am assuming the promotion has changed a lot since then?
