Nah, I thought you have another link since RH didn't have it. The streets are feenin. :to:

If Chrome translation is correct, SamuraiTV site says the show won't be aired till next Wednesday or Thursday, so an upload should be expected next week....unless Samurai TV aired it live, that way it could be upped any minute now :lupe:

So, DDT was sold but it doesn't seem anything is gonna change so I guess it's good news :heh: CyberAgent being the name of the company that bought them seems so fitting to me, it has a ring of fukkery to it.

It was announced today that DDT Pro Wrestling has been acquired by CyberAgent, the company behind the AbemaTV online streaming service. DDT will continue to do business as a subsidiary of CyberAgent and there is no change to the company name or its organisational structure. Sanshiro Takagi will continue his role as president of DDT. In addition the director of CyberAgent Takahiro Yamauchi will now become the director of DDT.

The deal between DDT and CyberAgent was made on 1st September when DDT transferred 100% of its outstanding shares to CyberAgent. The amount of money it cost has not been made public. Sanshiro Takagi commented on the deal by saying he wants to increase awareness of DDT, make it more appealing and aim for further expansion of the business. CyberAgent’s statement on their website mentions “the professional wrestling boom in recent years” being a reason why they are adding DDT content to the AbemaTV service.

All of the DDT spin offs are included in the acquisition so BASARA, DNA, Tokyo Joshi Pro and Ganbare☆Wrestling will also have their content appearing on AbemaTV. The first live show on the service will be this Sunday’s “WHO’S GONNA TOP?” event in Korakuen Hall. It will be free to all site members and registration to the website is free too. A special announcement about DDT’s future will be revealed during the show. Takagi promises DDT will continue to provide more of the fun, intense and dramatic stories that they are known for.

2017's Destruction in Kobe may have been the best Destruction show ever, topped by a lengthy main event between Kenny Omega and perpetual underdog Juice Robinson for the IWGP United States Championship. Attracting a sellout audience of 5482, today's show is surely a major achievement for Omega as a singles star and Juice as an up-and-comer.

1. Hiroyoshi Tenzan and Hirai Kawato def. Monster Rage (Tomoyuki Oka and Katsuya Kitamura) in 5:42 via Anaconda Vice

2. Taguchi Japan (Ryusuke Taguchi, Ricochet, Togi Makabe, Jushin Thunder Liger and Tiger Mask IV) def. Suzuki-gun (TAKA Michinoku, El Desperado, Taichi, Yoshinobu Kanemaru and Takashi Iizuka) in 7:17 via King Kong Knee Drop

3. CHAOS (YOSHI-HASHI and Hirooki Goto) def. Bullet Club (Bad Luck Fale and Chase Owens) in 5:41 via KARMA
