That was good, but definitely had higher expectations from a main event between these two

Yeah, it was fine but the other matches all had a little something more to them in different ways.

Here's things as they stand before tonight's show



Card:

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 IN YOKOHAMA DAY 1”, 03/11/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall


1. Jun Akiyama, Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku Vs Soma Takao, Toi Kojima & Takeshi Masada
2. Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida Vs RSP, Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi
3. HARASHIMA Produce Match ~ Blindfold Breastfold Tag Death Match: HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Shunma Katsumata
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Yuki Ueno Vs Joey Janela
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – A Block: Tetsuya Endo Vs Daisuke Sasaki
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: Yuji Hino Vs KANON
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – B Block: MAO Vs Yukio Naya

My Previews:

Ueno vs Janela: A huge styles clash here. Will it be interesting? Ueno is always good and a very clean wrestler. Joey not so much, but at least it feels like he's trying even though he's not the best fit in DDT.
Predicted result: Ueno. Predicted score: sub-HM

Endo vs Sasaki: Booking two sloppy hardcore guy vs very clean very good wrestler matches on the same show was a weird decision. Endo might make this a good one but Sasaki is dull to me (not to others though!).
Predicted result: Sasaki. Predicted score: sub-HM

Hino vs KANON: immovable object vs unstoppable force? Gooch vs KANON was great. Hino is great. If they really play up KANON as the guy who just can't be put down this might be brutal.
Predicted result: KANON. Predicted score: HM

MAO vs Naya: Mao is one of DDT's most interesting and messy wrestlers and Naya has trouble having a compelling gimmick beyond having bad hair and being tall. The layout to last show's Mao match earned it an MOTYC from me and people really loved the Naya match against Hino but it was against Hino.
Predicted result: Naya. Predicted Score: HM

Defnitely feel like MAO can drag Naya to a good match, and the last singles match I remember Sasaki and Endo having was fantastic (this was nearly two years ago though and Sasaki was working face). Reckon Hino/KANON will be my match of the day
