Judgement 8 was a professional wrestling event promoted by DDT Pro-Wrestling (DDT). It took place on March 20, 2004, in Tokyo, Japan, at the Velfarre discothèque.[1][2] It was the seventh event under the Judgement name. The event aired domestically on Fighting TV Samurai.

Storylines

[edit]

Judgement 8 featured seven professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.[3]

Event

[edit]

The Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship match, in which the two opponents had their crotches linked together by a rubber band attached to their briefs, was dubbed the Rubber Deathmatch (マッ, gomu desumacchi, spelled as an ateji with the kanji meaning "rear", "nothing", "come out", "weird", "splash" and "blood").[4]
