DDT “TAISHIDO SHOPPING DISTRICT YEAR-END PRO WRESTLING”, 18/12/2016
Tokyo Taishido Shopping Street Pedestrian Heaven
??? Fans

1. DDT Offer Match: Hoshitango & Gota Ihashi defeated Mizuki Watase & Guanchulo when Hoshitango pinned Guanchulo with a Jumping Body Press (15:52).
2. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Shoko Nakajima & Miyu Yamashita defeated Mil Clown & Maho Kurone when Nakajima pinned Kurone with the Northern Lights Suplex (14:40).
3. BASARA Offer Match: Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Daichi Kazato & SAGAT when Sekine submitted Kazato with the Let’s Combine (18:11).

A special Street Pro Wrestling show was put on by DDT in Taishido Shopping Street to celebrate the holidays. Blue mats were placed down on the road to act as the wrestling mat. None of the matches were Falls Count Anywhere but they also did not have a countout rule in effect so the wrestlers were free to bring the fight elsewhere for a while.

In the DDT match they wound up fighting outside the Silver Wolf Gym owned by K-1 fighter Masato. Both Gota Ihashi and Mizuki Watase stood outside the gym yelling for Masato to come out and fight them. When nothing happened they decided to kickbox each other instead. Meanwhile Hoshitango and Guanchulo were fighting in the food market hitting each other with vegetables. When the match came back to the mats, Ihashi put Watase in an Argentine Backbreaker while Hoshitango splashed Guanchulo or the victory.

Tokyo Joshi Pro was up next and Maho Kurone chased Shoko Nakajima around wanting to eat her while Miyu Yamashita and Mil Clown wrestled as normal. Their match found its way towards a Christmas shop. Nakajima meanwhile found garlic sticks at a greengrocer and tried to fight of Kurone with them to no effect. She eventually found a way to beat Kurone and it was with her trusty Northern Lights Suplex.

BASARA handled the final match of the show. Everyone in the match was given 2,000 yen to spends on items to use on their opponents. Daichi Kazato got a balance ball and used it as part of a Senton Drop. Ryota Nakatsu bought a plastic baseball bat to attack SAGAT with. Ryuichi Sekine borrowed a bicycle and ran over the opposition with it. Sekine then purchased food and drinks forced a rice cake into Kazato’s mouth. They found a photo booth and Cavalry forced their opponents into it. However they had no money left so they asked fans to lend them money. The fans who lent them money were allowed to be part of the photos taken in the cramped booth with the wrestlers. When that was done Kazato climbed on top of a drinks machine and Moonsaulted off of it. Sekine however then put him in the Let’s Combine and made him submit.

DDT “YOKOHAMA TWILIGHT 2016 ~WINTER~”, 17/12/2016
Yokohama Radiant Hall
346 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. KUDO defeated Guanchulo with the Diving Double Knee Drop (7:52).

7. DDT Extreme Title – Yokohama Chinatown TLC Match: Jun Kasai (c) defeated Makoto Oishi with the Vertical Drop Reverse Tiger Driver (17:55).
*V1 for Jun Kasai.

Bowls of Chinese food were placed in the corner for the Yokohama Chinatown TLC Match. The goal of the match was to either beat your opponent as normal or eat three bowls of Chinese food. Makoto Oishi offered a handshake before the match but Jun Kasai flipped him the middle finger. However he agreed to sit down and eat a bowl of noodles with Oishi before fighting. When they finished they began throwing punches. Oishi reached for a second bowl but Kasai stopped him by hitting him with a lady’s handbag at ringside. Oishi fought back with a chair until Kasai was too beat up to prevent him from finishing the second bowl. Oishi then used a ladder to target Kasai’s legs. He put Kasai in a Figure Four Leg Lock and tried to eat the third bowl at the same time. Kasai fought his way out and hit a Lariat followed by the Reverse Tiger Driver. Oishi kicked out of that and also kicked out of the Pearl Harbour Splash from the ladder! Kasai did one more Reverse Tiger Driver, the Vertical Drop kind and that was it for Oishi. Kasai called out for his next challenger. Doesn’t matter if it is a foreigner, a woman, a child or an animal. Out came Akito, he’s not afraid of Kasai. He asked the champion what his favourite match rules are. Kasai said Death Match. Akito suggested a Lighttube Death Match, but only one Lighttube. Whoever breaks it with their opponent wins. Kasai accepted and the match will take place on 3rd January.

Konosuke Takeshita describes Mad Paulie as somebody who has no feelings or even a human heart. However he noticed a glimpse of humanity coming from him during today’s match. Paulie cares about winning and losing if nothing else. Takeshita’s preparations for their Christmas Day singles match is to eat snacks instead of turkey.

HARASHIMA and Shigehiro Irie had to be pulled apart after Match #5.

DDT announced a return date to Nagano for 23rd April next year. As the sales manager for that region, Toru Owashi is in charge of running the show

Gouma Ryu was again in attendance to promote BASARA’s Christmas Day show at Korakuen Hall. However he forgot to bring tickets to sell at the merch table so he handed out business cards instead.

DDT “DNA 28” Results

December 17, 2016

nakatsu-vslider-higuchi

DDT “DNA 28”, 17/12/2016
Yokohama Radiant Hall
136 Fans

1. Naomi Yoshimura defeated Yuki Ueno with the Throwaway Power Bomb (6:18).
2. Farewell To The Strongest Enemy Of His Lifetime!! Farewell! My Beloved Brother!!: Guanchulo & Rekka defeated Dai Suzuki & Tigger Bedscene when Guanchulo pinned Suzuki with the VHS (9:32).
3. Atsushi Maruyama defeated Mizuki Watase with a Cross Armbreaker (10:35).
4. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo defeated Daiki Shimomura & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Endo pinned Shimatani with the Torture Rack Bomb (14:24).
5. Yuki Sato defeated Shunma Katsumata with the New Tornado Clutch (10:25).
6. Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Kouki Iwasaki when Nakatsu pinned Higuchi with the V Slider (19:50).

Ryota Nakatsu continues to be a nuisance to DNA, this time getting the pin over it’s top wrestler. Nakatsu targeted Kazusada Higuchi’s arm and countered a Lariat with a Cross Armbreaker. Higuchi avoided the V Slider and hit the Lariat on another try but Nakatsu kicked out. Nakatsu cut Higuchi’s momentum short with a Sleeper Hold. Ryuichi Sekine caused damage with a High Kick, then Nakatsu followed up with a Buzzsaw Kick. Higuchi was too dazed to fight off the V Slider and lost the match. After the match Nakatsu bragged that he has now done it all in DNA and won’t be coming back. Kouki Iwasaki stopped him and said they haven’t fought each other one on one yet. Nakatsu shrugged him off. He just beat Higuchi so why should he care about Iwasaki? The challenge wouldn’t go away though so Nakatsu eventually agreed but on one condition. If Iwasaki loses, he has to go back to the bottom and start as a trainee all over again.

Over in K-DOJO, Yuki Sato was hearing stories about a DNA wrestler who wanted a match with him. That wrestler turned out to be Shunma Katsumata. Sato won and thinks that Katsumata is still a rough cut, His technique isn’t fully precise yet.

DAMNATION brought a beating to Daiki Shimomura & Nobuhiro Shimatani, throwing them onto chairs at ringside. Daisuke Sasaki gave Shimomura a Brainbuster onto a chair, leaving Shimatani to fend for himself for a lot of the match. Shimomura returned but was taken out again with a Facecrusher and a Diving Body Attack from Sasaki. Tetsuya Endo then finished off Shimatani with the Torture Rack Bomb. Shimomura was left depressed that he couldn’t do anything either on his own or as part of a team. Shimatani said it was his first time being thrown onto a chair and it was really painful.

According to Atsushi Maruyama, Mizuki Watase thinks highly of himself. Watase thinks he is irreplacable in DNA, a treasure for the brand. Maruyama thinks Watase should instead focus on his future because he wasn’t able to do anything that would have won him the match. Maruyama suggested Watase should start using a Tiger Suplex and learn the skills of a tiger.

Naomi Yoshimura is two for two after beating Yuki Ueno in the opener. A Lariat, a Power Slam and then the Throwaway Power Bomb were just too powerful for Ueno to handle. Yoshimura is friends with Ueno but he hopes everyone notices the difference in ability between them.

BASARA “VAJRA 24 ~SPIRIT SHOTEN~” Results

December 15, 2016

mashimo-highkick

BASARA “VAJRA 24 ~SPIRIT SHOTEN~”, 15/12/2016
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
120 Fans

1. Hi69, Madoka & Masamune defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Daichi Kazato & Koji Iwamoto when Madoka pinned Kazato with a Rolling Leg Clutch (9:50).
2. Prepare For Major Reversal Pro Wrestling Trial – Lecture From A Lawyer: Tatsuhiko Yoshino defeated Gouma Ryu with a Figure Four Leg Lock (2:58).
3. Abdullah Kobayashi & Masaya Takahashi defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu when Kobayashi submitted Sekine with a Crab Hold (10:23).
4. SAGAT, I Will Sell A Fight To All Japan Pro Wrestling!: Yuma Aoyagi defeated SAGAT with the Fisherman Suplex (11:08).
5. MIKAMI & Tanomusaku Toba defeated FUMA & Yusuke Kubo when MIKAMI pinned Kubo with the 450 Splash (16:11).
6. Union MAX Title Preview 3rd Match!: Isami Kodaka & Kengo Mashimo defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shota when Kodaka pinned Hiroshi with the Zeyyari (14:44).

While on paper the main event looked one-sided, the pairing of Isami Kodaka & Kengo Mashimo turned out to be very volatile even though they won. Kodaka and Mashimo spent almost as much time fighting each other than they did Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shota. During the entrances Kodaka couldn’t resist kicking Mashimo from behind and get chased around ringside. When Hiroshi & Shota attacked Kodaka, Mashimo sat down in the front row and applauded them. He then refused to tag in when Kodaka needed rest saying “It cannot be helped”. Mashimo did run in to break up pins and submissions but he did so to attack Kodaka at the same time. When Hiroshi put Kodaka in a Cross Armbreaker, Mashimo broke it up with a Diving Knee Drop… to Kodaka’s targeted arm. Kodaka got a slimmer of hope when he ducked a High Kick from Mashimo and Hiroshi was hit instead. Kodaka got rid of Mashimo and was able to pin Hiroshi with the Zeyyari. Mashimo continued to attack Kodaka’s arm after the match until officials pulled him back. Kodaka grabbed a microphone and yelled there were enemies everywhere! When he calmed down he turned his attention to Hiroshi. He said Hiroshi will have no answer for him at Korakuen Hall when they wrestle for the Union MAX Title. Kodaka looked at the BASARA logo on the ring canvas and talked about how he made BASARA from nothing. He always feels like he standing on the edge of a cliff with his back facing the sea. He can never take a step back. He will try harder than ever before when BASARA runs Korakuen Hall on Christmas Day.

The Suicide Boyz got a win over IRON PRIEST ahead of their big 6-Man Tag at Korakuen. MIKAMI asked himself after the match “What is metal?” Well when Jun Kasai joins him & Tanomusaku Toba to form The Suicide Monkeys they’ll show IRON PRIEST just how crazy they are. MIKAMI’s speech provoked FUMA & Yusuke Kubo, sparking a brawl in the ring that had to be seperated. MIKAMI was encouraged by IRON PRIEST’s energised response.

It looks like Abdullah Kobayashi enjoys wrestling in BASARA. Why? Because it draws more women in their crowds than Big Japan. Kudos, Isami. He is getting under Ryuichi Sekine’s skin for using a version of the Boston Crab that looks like Sekine’s Combine submission to win his matches. After submitting Sekine with the move Kobayashi bragged that his Crab Hold won him the BJW Death Match Championship whereas Sekine’s Combine barely wins him matches in Chiba. He then asked for the audience to vote by applause over who has the better move. He won the vote. Abdullah then asked Sekine where was Koji Kanemoto? Sekine checked on Twitter and found out Kanemoto took the day off. He’ll go DM him to make sure he shows up on Christmas Day.

6. Union MAX Title Preview 3rd Match!: Isami Kodaka & Kengo Mashimo Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shota

One more skirmish before the big BASARA show. This time Isami Kodaka is bringing in the big guns. However Kengo Mashimo doesn’t always get along with him. So the main event may look one sided on paper but when the match takes place one wrong move can thrash Kodaka’s plans to pieces.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D Openweight Title: HARASHIMA (c) Vs Mike Bailey

Mike Bailey has built a lot of momentum in the last few months, winning the week long DNA Grand Prix tournament and now holding the KO-D Tag Team Titles with Konosuke Takeshita. His success has been rewarded even more with a KO-D Openweight Title shot at DDT’s first Korakuen Hall show in 2017.

Joey Ryan, Laura James and Candice LeRae will be on this show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’17”, 04/01/2017
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Rika Tatsumi & Hyper Misao (w/ Minami Momochi) Vs Akane Miura & Maho Kurone
2. Reika Saiki Vs Itoh Maki
3. Nodoka-oneesan Vs Cherry
4. Konsho-gun Vs Married Woman Army: Azusa Takigawa & Nonoko Vs Ai Shimizu & Laura James
5. Mil Clown Vs Candice LeRae
6. Miyu Yamashita Vs Saki Akai
7. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Yuu (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

One of the big rivalries in Tokyo Joshi Pro’s history will come back for a special match. Miyu Yamashita has never been able to beat Saki Akai one on one. Akai has shown no interest in having any future plans with Tokyo Joshi so this may be Yamashita’s last chance for now to get that win.

Hyper Misao has enlisted Rika Tatsumi and Minami Momochi to help her latest attempt to protect Tokyo Joshi from evil. It wasn’t long ago when Akane Miura was practising snake magic although she has shown no evil behaviour since returning to normal. Maho Kurone however is pretty much a zombie now. She’s always been acting weird since her debut match but yeah, carrying a severed arm to the ring while her mouth is covered in blood isn’t exactly being subtle. Momochi will be finishing up her role as Tokyo Joshi’s ring announcer at this show so what a way to go, getting involved in this creepy situation.

DDT “ROAD TO SUPER ARENA IN OYODO ~DRAMATIC DREAM TENROKU~”, 09/01/2017
Osaka Oyodo Community Center

1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Mike Bailey (c) Vs Masakatsu Funaki & Yukio Sakaguchi

The pairing of Masakatsu Funaki & Yukio Sakaguchi at “OSAKA OCTOPUS 2016” worked so well that they will get a KO-D Tag Title shot next month.

DDT “STREET WRESTLING IN GOLD’S GYM” Results

December 12, 2016

goldgym1

DDT “STREET WRESTLING IN GOLD’S GYM”, 12/12/2016
Fukuoka Gold’s Gym Hakata
155 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

Falls Count Anywhere 3 Way Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita & Antonio Honda defeated Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo and Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata when Takeshita pinned Hirata with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster onto a stack of three weightlifting plates (33:19).

goldgym2

Pro wrestlers love gyms so it was just a matter of time until a bunch of them got together to wrestle in one while everyone else is working out. Before the match took place HARASHIMA appeared for a public interview. The KO-D Openweight Champion said that Shigehiro Irie wrestling for months in America has changed his skill in ways he never expected. He is also expecting Mike Bailey to be a solid opponent waiting for him if he can beat Irie.

goldgym3

When the interview was over it was time for the Falls Count Anywhere Match. Yoga mats and poles were placed in an open area to act as the ring but the action moved elsewhere pretty quickly. HARASHIMA wasn’t part of the match, instead he spent his time sparring with Akito. Kazuki Hirata intervened and was quickly trapped in an Ankelock by HARASHIMA. Hirata gave up but the referee couldn’t do anything. While this was going on the other wrestlers got involved with an aerobics class.

goldgym4

When the class ended the match restarted. Konosuke Takeshita put Hirata in a Stretch Plum. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo grabbed Hirata’s hand and tried to trap his fingers between two weights. Sanshiro Takagi placed a stack of weight plates down on Antonio Honda’s knees. Sasaki climbed one of the workout machines and did a Diving Lariat off it onto Takagi. The DAMNATION wrestlers then forced their opponents to run on the running machines nearby. The Happy Motel and T2Hide teams both escaped down to the lobby. They put each other in a line of Figure Four Neck Locks next to a Christmas tree. Sasaki grabbed Hirata, walked him up the stairs and then tried to tightrope walk on the rail. Hirata knocked him off balance and Sasaki crotched himself then slid down the rail.

goldgym5

Takagi found a table and put Honda through it with a Piledriver. Sasaki gave Takeshita a Low Blow but was knocked into a wire fence by Hirata. Hirata then found a stack of weightlifting plates and tried to drop Takeshita onto them with the Egoist Driver but Takeshita escaped. Instead Takeshita gave Hirata a Brainbuster onto the plates! There was no coming back from that, Takeshita pinned Hirata for the win. The gym’s manager awarded Takeshita & Honda with medals for the victory. He said he would like to do the event again to continue the good relationship between DDT and Gold’s Gym. Takeshita says he and Honda are bulking up everyday thanks to Gold’s Gym. He will finish his visit with a deadlift.

6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie (c) when Takanashi pinned Sasaki with the Bacchus (18:24).
*DAMNATION fails in V2. Shuten-dōji becomes the 27th KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions!
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita & Mike Bailey (c) defeated Danshoku Dino & Keisuke Ishii when Bailey pinned Dino with the Shooting Star Double Knee Drop (24:00).
*V1 for Konosuke Takeshita & Mike Bailey.

As mentioned after yesterday’s show, Mike Bailey wanted nothing to do with Danshoku Dino in the main event. Dino chased him around ringside until Bailey had to fend him off with kicks. It wasn’t any better for Konosuke Takeshita, he missed a Lariat to Keisuke Ishii and hit his arm off the ring post. Dino & Ishii took advantage and worked over the arm. They tried a Go 2 Sleep style set up for the Danshoku Driver to Bailey but Takeshita cut them off. Takeshita countered Ishii’s Kneel Kick with a Lariat and that took him out of the match. Bailey secured the win with a Buzzsaw Kick to Dino followed by the Shooting Star Double Knee Drop. Bailey said after the match that his problem with Dino has nothing to do with his sexual preference. It’s because Dino keeps grabbing men’s crotches without their consent. Aside from that Bailey called him a good wrestler and “The No. 1 Gay”. With that out of the way Bailey then asked Amon Tsurumi for a request. He recently won the DNA Grand Prix and the KO-D Tag Team Titles so now he wants a shot at the KO-D Openweight Title! Tsurumi confirmed that the winner of HARASHIMA Vs Shigehiro Irie will face Bailey at Korakuen Hall on 3rd January with the title on the line!

It’s all falling apart for DAMNATION, they have now lost all of their championships! In the lead up to this match, Daisuke Sasaki said if DAMNATION lost the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles to Shuten-dōji then they should split up. Kota Umeda was at ringside using crutches to stand so he could cheer on his stablemates. Early in the match Sasaki grabbed Masahiro Takanashi’s legs from the apron and pulled him outside the ring. That led to a ringside brawl where Sasaki grabbed Umeda’s crutch and then hit him with it. The end came when Takanashi escaped Sasaki’s Vietnam Driver II. Sasaki fought off the Takatonic but was surprised when Takanashi switched to the Bacchus. That was enough for the three count and the title change! Sasaki was distraught by the result. DAMNATION has lost all of its championships in the space of a week and they deserve to be dissolved because of this! While Sasaki had a mental breakdown backstage, Shuji Ishikawa demanded the group get a rematch at Korakuen Hall on Christmas Day. Mad Paulie already has a match set for that show so Ishikawa will take his spot on the team. The new champions welcome the decision. Takanashi said Sasaki should go wash dishes for DDT’s restaurants if he loses again. As far as he is concerned, Sasaki owed a debt to Shuten-dōji when he lost and that debt was paid for with the 6-Man Tag Titles. If Sasaki loses again, he’ll owe Shuten-dōji another debt and he has nothing left that they want so he may as well start from zero like a rookie and do chores.

Shigehiro Irie was happy to play with his new friend Yoshihiro Takayama in Hakata! He has nothing to be afraid of because his new friend is big and strong! Takayama gave Irie his stamp of approval to be the next KO-D Champion! Together they yelled “No Fear!”

Maki Itoh was all business for her debut wrestling match. After watching Miyu Yamashita’s dance entrance she told her she wasn’t here to do the same. Itoh’s offence included Elbow Strikes, a Body Slam, a Dropkick and even a Headbutt. Yamashita defeated her with a Skewered Knee Strike followed by the Attitude Adjustment. Yamashita said she was happy to be back in her home city of Fukuoka and she was pleased with Itoh’s performance. Her true feelings were showcased in the ring because she worked hard. Yamashita also said from now on she and Itoh are rivals so they can have more exciting matches together in Fukuoka. Itoh admitted defeat but claims she has a cuter face than Yamashita.

DDT “SAITAMA SLAM! VOL. 17”, 10/12/2016
Saitama Kasukabe Hall
350 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

0. King Of Dark Title: Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Saki Akai defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani (c) & Cherry when Matsunaga pinned Shimatani with the Back Drop (6:33).
*D6 for Nobuhiro Shimatani.
1. Kazuki Hirata defeated Shunma Katsumata with the One Shot Miracle Cradle (9:54).
2. He Is That Guy And He Is Me: Akito defeated Rekka with the Scorpion Lock (10:49).
3. 3 Way Match: Makoto Oishi defeated Daisuke Sasaki and Soma Takao when Oishi pinned Takao with the Jikiden Tornado Clutch (8:20).
4. Yoshihiro Takayama & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Toru Owashi & Gota Ihashi when Takayama pinned Ihashi with a Big Boot (0:06).
4a. Rematch: Yoshihiro Takayama & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Toru Owashi & Gota Ihashi when Takayama pinned Ihashi with the Running Knee Lift (6:02).
5. Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Masahiro Takanashi when Paulie pinned Takanashi with the Paulie Buster (12:03).
6. Prelude To A Healthy Television Match: Danshoku Dino, Keisuke Ishii & Guanchulo defeated Konosuke Takeshita, Mike Bailey & Antonio Honda when Dino pinned Honda with the Danshoku Driver (11:24).
7. Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Yasu Urano defeated Shigehiro Irie & Kouki Iwasaki when HARASHIMA pinned Iwasaki with the Somato (14:07).

Shigehiro Irie gave HARASHIMA a thumbs down after the main event. HARASHIMA called the match just a preview of what will happen on Christmas Day and he will win just like he did today.

Danshoku Dino & Keisuke Ishii now have to nothing to be afraid of after they beat a trio featuring the KO-D Tag Team Champions. Ishii thinks their odds of winning the titles tomorrow are at 80% and predicts they will win in 8 minutes. Mike Bailey did not like wrestling against Dino but not because Dino is gay, Bailey thinks Dino grabbing a woman in the ring the same way he did to him would be just as disgusting. Konosuke Takeshita ensured Bailey that he would fight Dino so Bailey could just fight Ishii.

Daisuke Sasaki gave Shuten-dōji one more warning that DAMNATION will destroy them at the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title match tomorrow.

Gota Ihashi had his face painted to look like Don Frye so he could reenact the famous fight with Yoshihiro Takayama. He was immediately pinned after a Big Boot and the Pride FC victory music played over the sound system. A rematch took place and Takayama pinned Ihashi again this time with the Running Knee Lift.

Makoto Oishi knows that his win over Daisuke Sasaki and Soma Takao in the 3 Way Match was a fluke. However he needs all the confidence boost he can get to prepare for Jun Kasai. He will beat Kasai even if it is a fluke.

In a callback to their previous King Of Dark Title match, Saki Akai demanded that this time Cherry should be given the championship if she lost the pre-show match. Luckily for her, Nobuhiro Shimatani was pinned again so he stays as champion.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “IN A CORNER OF A CITY CALLED KASUKABE” Results

December 10, 2016

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “IN A CORNER OF A CITY CALLED KASUKABE”, 10/12/2016
Saitama Kasukabe Hall
187 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Akane Miura defeated Nodoka-oneesan with the Lariat (5:24).
2. I Also Want To Be In Love! This Year’s Christmas Will Also Be Special!: Rika Tatsumi & Hyper Misao defeated Azusa Takigawa & Nonoko when Tatsumi submitted Takigawa with the Zexy Dragon Sleeper (11:48).
3. Reika Saiki defeated Maho Kurone with the Tower Bridge (6:06).
4. ROAD TO “Ittenon” Special Tag Match: Yuu & Miyu Yamashita vs Shoko Nakajima & Mil Clown ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).

In a first for Tokyo Joshi Pro, the main event ended in a time limit draw. In the final seconds Yuu tried to put Shoko Nakajima in the Cross Armbreaker but could not sync it in when the time expired. Nakajima noted that she must be doing something wrong since she couldn’t win the match. Yuu told her she is looking forward to their match at Korakuen Hall on 4th January.

Saki Akai appeared after the main event to confront Miyu Yamashita. She told “Ms. Pelican” that they will have a match together at Korakuen. Akai wants to know how much Yamashita has changed since their last singles match. She also asked her to wash her face before the match. Yamashita said she will slash Akai down.

Maho Kurone is becoming more zombie like in her appearances. This time she entered the ring carrying a severed arm to chew on. Maki Itoh watched her future opponent Reika Saiki beat Kurone by submission.

Azusa Takigawa is building more and more of her matches around copies of Zexy magazine. She put a stack of issues together to use as a foreign object but that backfired when she hit Nonoko by mistake. She still held the magazine neatly in her arms when she tapped out to Rika Tatsumi’s Dragon Sleeper. Hyper Misao asked Tatsumi after the match to help her fight Akane Miura & Maho Kurone at Korakuen Hall. Misao called her opponents scary because one of them eats human meat and the other practised devil worship for a while. She also asked ring announcer Minami Momochi to help her preserve the peace in Tokyo Joshi as a special assistant. Konkatsu-gun’s plan for 4th January is to face Ai Shimizu & Laura James. It’s a battle between married women against women who want to get married!
