6. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: MAO, Yuki Ueno & Toy Kojima defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku when Kojima pinned Koroku with the Kojima In Wonderland ~KOJIMA Wonderland~ (20:22).
Weeks of taking beatings from more experienced opponents is starting to pay off for Toy Kojima. Eager to show his worth, he went toe to toe against Jun Akiyama again, even agreeing to fight him outside the ring. MAO & Yuki Ueno did what they could to keep Akiyama & Tetsuya Endo at bay so Kojima could fight Yuya Koroku. The two of them went back and forth until Kojima did his Wrist-Clutch version of the Kojima In Wonderland for the victory. After the match The 37KAMIINA all promoted the 25th June Korakuen Hall show where they intend to win the KO-D Tag Team Titles and DDT Extreme Title together.
For the second show in a row Yuji Hino complained about Chris Brookes disclocating his shoulder during the build up to their KO-D Openweight Title match. He repeated yesterday’s realization that Brookes gets to rest at home while he has to wrestle these matches and hurt his body week after week. Hino asked if Brookes even qualifies for a title shot at this point? It makes him so mad that he promised to turn the title bout on 23rd July into Brookes’ retirement match!
There was bad news for Sanshiro Takagi today when his dodgy shoulder started acting up again. The good news is one of his tag partners Tsutenkakka is a qualified osteopath so he was able to get it fixed in time for the match! The other wrestlers from Ehime Pro played their part too. Imabari Taoru Mascaras used his lucha while Cutie Elly The Ehime used her feminine wiles to distract the opposition. Takagi praised the work Ehime Pro has been doing to attract a loyal and passionate fanbase in Matsuyama. He hopes that Ehime Pro will support DDT again when DDT comes back on a regular basis.
Ehime Pro was also featured on the second match with local joshi wrestlers Char and Tsuruhimeka taking part. Char even played into the finish by hitting Yusuke Okada with a Missile Dropkick, knocking him into Akito’s Sunset Flip style pin for the victory. Akito was impressed by the efforts Char and Tsuruhimeka gave out there and said it lit a fire under him. Okada said he would love to see DDT and Ehime Pro work together for a show in Tokyo some day.
Rukiya was so excited to be wrestling in Ehime for the first time but it was spoiled when Kazuki Hirata was immediately pinned after he dropped his Hirata GO! Glasses. He convinced everybody to restart the match and he would tell Hirata when to put his glasses on. When he did, Hirata started to dance and ignored Pheromones beating Rukiya into submission.
