It's quite challenging to understand without hearing the wrestlers speak Japanese. Additionally, knowing the wrestlers' backgrounds and the reasons behind the event's organization is essential. Therefore, I'll try to explain these aspects.

If you can't understand something, feel free to ask me on Twitter (@kobori_akira_pw). I'm also glad if you point out my mistakes in English.

Contexts

You should know the three following contexts.

Firstly, this event was organized by volunteers as a tribute to a fan named Tomoe, who loved Tokyo Joshi. His Twitter name, 'Saseteyo,' meaning 'let me do,' was inspired by a popular column titled 'Kando saseteyo' (Let me move). You can get more by the following blog.

Secondly, Yumehito Imanari, wearing purple pants, recently left CyberFight and became a freelancer. Super Sasadango Machine and Antonio Honda are pretending not to admit his graduation.

Thirdly, they have already fought in the rule of the "Kaidan Shin-Numabukuro Death Match" in 2007. Since then, Yumehito has been cursed, and Tsurumi Amon(Hisaya Imabayashi) said he must fight in the same rule to break the curse.

By the way, you watch Yumehito was venting his irritation. Because he actually faced troubles, such as sudden requests for video edits and the possibility of unpaid dues, after becoming a freelancer. This caused the audience to laugh.

Match

The wrestlers fight under normal rules. If there is no resolution in three minutes, Amon starts telling a horror story. This is the skit:

"Coin locker"

• A woman gave birth to a baby. Unable to afford his upbringing, she left him in a coin locker.

• Several years later, she had to pass near the locker.

• There, she found a crying boy.

• 'What's wrong?' she asked him, but he remained silent.

• When she inquired, 'Where's your mother?' the boy suddenly stopped crying and said...

• 'MY MOTHER... IS...'

• 'YOU!' (OMAE DA!)"

Sasadango, Antonio, and others fainted from Amon's shouting. However, Yumehito endured and counterattacked Amon using the same word. Yumehito finally defeated Amon.

Afterward, Yumehito shouted 'MY MOTHER IS YOU!' addressing Tomoe, the audience, Sasadango, and Antonio.

Why were we moved?

Yumehito expressed gratitude to everyone.

Antonio taught him the joy of Student Pro-Wrestling. Sasadango, also known as Muscle Sakai, invited him to the DDT visual group. Imabayashi continues to work with him even now.

He also deeply appreciated Tomoe, who brought these audiences to the venue.

When Yumehito said to Tomoe "THANK YOUUUU!!!!", the match was over.

Through this match, Yumehito truly graduated in the fullest sense.
