Miyu Yamashita & Yuka Sakazaki had different responses to their team winning in the main event. Yamashita was surprised by Maki Ito kicking out of a Head Kick and this drove her to finish the match with the Attitude Adjustment. Sakazaki meanwhile was in an excited mood because her team won the match and she continues to be a strong champion. She asked Yamashita if she will beat Meiko Satomura on 26th August. Sakazaki then asked Reika Saiki if she is willing to win. Saiki said she is but Sakazaki told her she won’t. Sakazaki will win but losing to her is nothing to be ashamed of.

Tokyo Joshi Pro will soon get its own Tag Team Championships. The TOKYO Princess Tag Team Titles will be up for grabs in a three show tournament taking place in September and October. Round 1 will be held on 9th September in Shin-Kiba, the semi-finals will be in Yokohama on 16th September and the champions will be crowned at the final in Yokohama on 14th October.

Rika Tatsumi thinks she needs to improve her Hip Attacks so she promises to make her butt stronger. Her goals for the rest of the year is to vanquish NEO Biishiki-gun and win the Tag Titles with Maho Kurone.

NEO Biishiki-gun were in attendance but just for an autograph signing. Saki-nami told the fans if they want to see the unit wrestle they should come to the Korakuen Hall show. She also teased Hyper Misao for being lonely and having nothing to do over at the merchandise table during shows.

Back during Beer Garden week, the GM Tetsuya Koda won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Cherry. The side effect of this was Koda now had to defend the title in the upcoming Tokyo Joshi Battle Royal at DDT’s big Sumo Hall show. He teased an announcement regarding his position to be revealed at the end of this show. Koda explained he pinned Cherry because he wanted to make sure the title stays in Tokyo Joshi. He thought about passing the title over to one of the women but he couldn’t decide who. He loves them all and all of them are cute. So Koda’s announcement is he will keep the title for himself! He dared everyone to try and take it from him. But they won’t and he will bring the belt with him to a handshake party with singer Maria Makino soon to impress her.

6. Ganbare☆Climax – Round 2: Dave Crist defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with the Magdalene (16:11).

Day 2 of the Ganbare☆Climax focused on the quarter finals of the tournament. The main event saw Shinichiro Tominaga and Dave Crist getting the spotlight as the final match in the 2nd round. Tominaga tried playing mind games by daring Crist to grapple with him on the ground. That didn’t work because Crist has MMA experience. Tominaga later tried to convince Crist to take it easy on him because he has a daughter. That also didn’t work because Crist didn’t see the daughter anywhere in the room. Tominaga finally got something going when he convinced the referee to check on Crist’s shoes. The pause in action gave Tominaga the chance to do a Jumping Cutter to Crist while his guard down. Crist kicked out and hit the Square And Compass but Tominaga kicked out too. Crist then hit the Magdalene to eliminate Tominaga from the tournament. Crist brought Shigehiro Irie into the ring to translate his victory speech. He said Tominaga was a terribly strong wrestler. When Crist got on his flight to Japan he was worried he wouldn’t get to fight a good hand like Tominaga. Crist ended the speech by saying “We’re family! We are Ganbare Pro!”

Ken Ohka’s strong run continued with a victory over KAZMA SAKAMOTO. He countered the Michinoku Driver II with a Dragon Suplex then definitively put down his opponent with a Lariat, a Vertical Drop Brainbuster and finally the Fire Spear.

KENSO Vs Kendo Kashin. How those words when spoken aloud by Shota didn’t scare off the audience I will never know. Today Kashin weighed in at 120kg, way up from the 48kg he claimed to be at the day before. Kashin saw that KENSO’s shoulder was taped up and asked if he was allowed to attack it. When KENSO ignored him to try and get the fans to chant his name, Kashin decided that he could target the body part. The fans also chanted for Kashin which made KENSO angry. The two brawled outside and risked getting counted out. KENSO made it back in on time but when Kashin was about to re-enter on the 19th second, Mitsuo Momota came out and pulled Kashin away from the ring. KENSO was declared the winner by countout. Kashin challenged Momota to a 5 Vs 5 match between Ganbare☆Wrestling and NEW to be held at Sumo Hall with Yukinori Matsui as the referee. Matsui wouldn’t agree to it. Kashin then challenged Momota & Chikara to a match tomorrow. Momota accepted. Yumehito Imanari offered to be Kashin’s tag partner for the bout and he accepted him.

GENTARO Vs Takafumi Ito was mostly ground based with GENTARO coming out on top with a Forward Roll counter to Ito’s Cradle pin attempt.

Tomorrow’s semi-finals are Ken Ohka Vs GENTARO and Dave Crist Vs KENSO.
