1. Tonomusaku Toba vs. Yuki Nishino (3:31)
This match was just odd. Toba wore boxing gloves and the other was in a black singlet and had a simmilar build to Taz. Either way this wasn't so much of a match as it was a punch fest. They literally punched eachother in the head for about two minutes, hit a trifecta of headbuts, suplex, Toba wins.

2. Miyuki Maeda & Yuki Miyazaki vs. Silver Ju (Jaguar Yokota) & Gao (4:45)
Yet another awkward match, but this time with womens. I can't tell who was who, but there was only one impressive wrestler and it was either Maeda or Miyazaki. The other team comprised of two chicks in sweat pants and t-shirts with jaguar-esque masks on. All hell broke loose when one of the jaguar chicks got pissed that the other wanted to use a chair, then their little team broke up and one of them took her mask off. Once again, awkward.

3. Issei Fujisawa & Seiya Morohashi vs. Showa & Yoshihiro Sakai (6:31)
Decent tag match with nothing really standing out. Yoshihiro Sakai came out with this mask with rediculously huge inflatable horns and the crowd popped huge when he bobbled his head side-to-side to make the horns flop everywhere. Seriously, it was funnier than it sounds. Either way the other team ripped his mask off and we had a pretty average tag match.
*3/4
4. Iron Man Heavy Metal champion Futoshi Miwa vs. O.K. Revolution (4:04)
Before this match we got to see Futoshi Miwa lose his IMHM title to some lady in the DDT office, another lady in the DDT office, then won it back by squishing her. Apparently there's a 24/7 rule in play like the WWE Hardcore title. Anyway Miwa is like 300lbs of pure fat and, well, screw it here's Miwa:
Moving on, O.K. Revolution's buddies toilet papered the ring before he came out and nobody seemed to care as the match then started. Shore and not a lot happened besides O.K. Revolution won the belt.
*3/4
5. Hero & Viewtiful Joe vs. Biomonster DNA & Joker (9:45)
Wow, DDT sure doesn't hold back on costumes. Everybody in this match had power ranger-esque costumes on while Viewtiful Joe wore the exact same stuff as the video game character. Hero was easily the best in this match while Joe wasn't so bad and the other two guys were just there to get beat on. Fast paced start, slow middle, then pretty decent ending. Not bad.
**1/2
6. Takashi Sasaki, MIKAMI, Super Uchu Power, & Kudo vs. Sanshiro Takagi, Gentaro, Gi Ogita, Tomohiko Hashimoto, Kurokage, Futoshi-kage, & Gi Kurt Angle in a Royal Rumble-style elimination match (33:28)
Now I understand why people like DDT so much. This match was AWESOME. The best way to describe MIKAMI is Jeff Hardy not on crack. Takashi Sasaki ended up getting the win after a ton of near falls that really kept me on my toes. Not only did we get to see a dude dress up as Kurt Angle and dish out a million awful looking angle slams, but Sanshiro Takagi dresses up as Stone Cold (see below) and dished out some WICKED stunners off of a ladder. Even though there was some comedy and lots of WWE ripping off (including a Stevie-T), this match was well worth the price of the tape.
****1/4
