1. Falls Count Anywhere Match: Michael Nakazawa defeated Sanshiro Takagi with a Diving Body Press from the vending machine through a table (7:17).

When Sanshiro Takagi challenged Michael Nakazawa to a Falls Count Anywhere match, the location was kept a secret until it took place. Turns out it was at the very spot where DDT began doing Rojo Pro Wrestling matches in 2009, the Inoo Book Store in Tokyo! Takagi was waiting for Nakazawa to appear and when he did he was pretending to be a shop employee.

The match began and the two circled each other around the front desk. Takagi got the upper hand forcing Nakazawa to exit the shop. They fought up a stairway next door into a hall where Takagi hit Nakazawa with a chair. He then threw Nakazawa down the stairs.

Nakazawa kicked out of Takagi’s pins so Takagi summoned a barbed wire baseball bat and chased him down the street! Takagi struck him in the stomach but the shopkeeper told him to stop so no one would get in trouble. Nakazawa crawled into a nearby restaurant where the owner served him a drink for recovery.

When Nakazawa left the restaurant he could not find Takagi anywhere. Suddenly Takagi appeared riding on the Dramatic Dream bike and he ran Nakazawa down with a Lariat. Still, Nakazawa kicked out of his pins. Takagi found a table and set it up in the hopes of finishing off his enemy.

Nakazawa fought back, stripping out of his clothes in the process. He got the upper hand in a strike exchange that ended with a Super Kick. As nearby cars drove by, Nakazawa pulled out his underwear, placed it on his hand and smothered Takagi with the Ultimate Venom AEW Arm until Takagi was laying flat on top of the table. Nakazawa then climbed a nearby vending machine and jumped off, putting Takagi through the table with a Diving Body Press.

Nakazawa pinned Takagi for the three count to win but he is not through with him yet. They still have a match against each other at Sumo Hall this Sunday. The two have humiliated each other so many times that their grudge will never end until somebody apologizes. Therefore Nakazawa wants the match to have No Disqualifications and will only end when one wrestler admits defeat by shouting “I’m sorry” out loud!

1. Falls Count Anywhere 6-Man Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Shinya Aoki, Shunma Katsumata & Yukio Naya when Takagi pinned Katsumata with the Himawari Bomb onto a Chair (13:44).

11 years ago DDT held a pro wrestling match inside of the Inoo Book Store in Tokyo. It was one of the earliest times DDT put together a Street Pro Wrestling match. Today to celebrate the launch of Sanshiro Takagi’s new book it was time to go back to Inoo and do it all again!

The participants entered the book store all wearing the employee aprons. Yuki Ueno and Shunma Katsumata started off the match. They tagged in Naomi Yoshimura and Yukio Naya to do some power spots inside the room. Then Takagi and Shinya Aoki tagged in and traded holds until Aoki got a nearfall with a European Clutch.

With the opening tradeoffs out of the way it was time to take the match outside. Takagi and Aoki brawled down a side street while Ueno threw Katsumata into the store’s wall. Ueno and Katsumata fought up a stairway and Ueno Suplexed Katsumata down the steps.

Takagi and Aoki found nearby chairs and had a duel in the middle of the street. Aoki invited Keigo Nakamura to help him out but Nakamura’s High Kick hit Aoki as well as Takagi. Aoki took out his anger on Nakamura by choking him out next to a vending machine.

Naya brought out a table and placed both Yoshimura and Takagi on top of it. He held them down so Katsumata could climb a ladder and hit a Diving Double Knee Drop on them through the table! Katsumata went for the pin but Ueno broke it up with a chair.

Ueno then climbed on top of a vending machine and did a Moonsault onto everyone below.

Katsumata climbed onto a book rack to do a dive of his own but Takagi caught him with a Stunner on the way down.

Takagi placed the chairs together and threw Katsumata down onto them with the Himawari Bomb for the three count.

After the match Takagi thanked Aoki for coming to take part. Aoki flew in from Singapore just 2 hours before the match took place. Takagi also thanked the book store for letting them wrestle inside. He thanked the book company for releasing his new book and got everyone to chant for a reprint. Around 50 or 60 people showed up so Takagi thinks that is around 180,000 yen in book sales so far. But he doesn’t care about that right now. He now wants Bookstore Pro Wrestling to be an annual event!

6. IRON FIST TAG Titles: FUMA & Yusuke Kubo (c) Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & SAGAT

The Union MAX Champion and his next challenger are teaming up for a match. But why? It’s all Isami Kodaka’s idea and is based on his history with Masahiro Takanashi. When Kodaka was the KO-D Openweight Champion in 2016, Takanashi was one of his challengers. The two teamed together before their title match. Kodaka remembers how tense it was as a champion to team with his challenger. He wants Takanashi to experience the same feeling. He has brought in what he thinks is the best team they should fight, the Speed Of Sounds!

Over in Big Japan this year’s Saikyo Tag League has been going on. Fuminori Abe entered the tournament with Takuya Nomura. The two regularly team together in BJW as Astronauts. Sadly the team only scored 6 points in their group and could not qualify for the semi-finals. So while the final rounds of the tournament is happening in Korakuen Hall, Abe and Nomura will instead be at BASARA wrestling each other.

6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki & Soma Takao (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Chris Brookes
7. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Yuki Iino

Yuki Iino has been bench pressing 200kg as part of his training for the main event. He thought the public contract signing was a public workout so HARASHIMA was there to see his lift. The downside for this kind of training is Iino risks re-injuring his elbow before the show. He swears it is in perfect condition.

Michiaki Nakano from Souken Holdings had a sparring session with Keigo Nakamura but he got beaten pretty easily. At least the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title is now part of the Battle Royal he is entering.

Saki Akai has said the reason she is doing a 7 match series is to show her guest opponents how interesting wrestling in DDT can be. Tsukasa Fujimoto is no stranger to DDT so she is going into the match wanting to see if Akai is more than just a gorgeous looking pro wrestler. She is curious to see how Akai wrestles against her because Akai has spent almost her entire wrestling career in a company for male wrestlers.

2. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title – Delayed Young Drama Cup Final: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Kazuki Hirata

Kazuki Hirata isn’t leaving Ganbare☆Wrestling just yet. He has unfinished business with Keisuke Ishii. A decade ago the generation that Hirata and Ishii belong to had their own rookies tournament called the Young Drama Cup. It only lasted two years. Ishii won the first one in 2009 and reached the final of the second one in 2010. Hirata entered the 2010 tournament but finished last with only a single victory. A lot has changed since then but the history of that tournament now surrounds the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title match.
