Never Mind 2015
(2015/12/23)
1. Makoto
Oishi, Shunma Katsumata, Cherry vs. Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai, Lady Beard
Basic,
harmless opener that lasted until Yukio Sakaguchi got sick of everyone’s
shenanigans, which was rather funny.

2. Antonio
Honda, Hiroshi Fukuda, Tomomitsu Matsunaga vs. T2Hide (Sanshiro Takagi, Toru
Owashi, Kazuki Hirata)
The tagline
for the match says “Ultra Heroes EXPO Collaboration Match”, ‘nuff said. It has
alien villains and superheros, and DANCING K!!!
GOLD
3. Daisuke
Sasaki vs. Yasu Urano
What
actually aired on TV was good, unfortunately they cut off a lot of it,
therefore I can’t rate it. Shame.
N/A
4. 4-WAY:
Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu vs. Masa Takanashi & Kota Umeda vs.
Keisuke Ishii & Soma Takao vs. Kazusada Higuchi & Suguru Miyatake
This was a
decent spotfest that started off as a comedy match, pretty much the filler that
served to get everyone on the show.

5. SPECIAL
AMARES RULES MATCH for DDT Extreme
Championship: Akito vs. Kendo Kashin ©
One of the
very rare DDT matches I rated “bad”, and it had the amazing Akito in it, which
is telling a damn lot. Akito is probably a top 3 company wrestler, he deserves
much better than this (and I like Kashin!), now that he, Honda and Urano are in
the title picture it should be better than what we saw here, Kendo Kashin
simply doesn’t belong here, which is quite ironic since he does the mat-based
style, it’s just that he’s not good anymore and is very limited in every sense.
bad
6. TURN
BASED RULES: Danshoku Dino & Super Sasadango Machine vs. HARASHIMA &
Ken Ohka
Weird match
where songs played were determining which team could go on offense, lel.
However, it didn’t come off as fun as it might sound. DDT is usually way better
at stuff like this.

7. KO-D Tag Team Championship Tournament – FINAL:
Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo vs. Yuji Okabayashi & Shigehiro Irie
Pro-wrestling
does the best coming-of-age stories, and this fantastic tag team clash was one
of them. Takeshita and Endo are not green rookies anymore, but they’re not
super experienced either, and then on the opposite side there’s a true force to
be reckoned with in Yuji Okabayashi, and there’s homegrown bruiser Shigehiro
Irie. Amazing match where you can guess how the story went without me having to
write a goddamn thing, I highly recommend this one, fellas!
****1/2
