Dick Togo wrestled his last ever match in Japan earlier against CHAOS’ Gedo in the main event of DDT’s Korakuen Hall show. Togo, one of the most underrated junior workers for many years now and a personal favourite of mine since I started watching Michinoku Pro in 1998, is a close friend of Jado & Gedo’s and has a long history with them. Unsurprisingly, when Togo offered a handshake before the match, Gedo said “no” and Togo grinned knowingly. The two had a 25 minute match full of action and rulebreaking before Togo dropped his diving senton on Gedo to win his last bout on Japanese soil. The two embraced after the match before the likes of The Great Sasuke, Super Delfin, and Tiger Mask appeared to give Togo a send-off. Togo will embark on a lengthy overseas tour before calling it a day once and for all.
