An unnamed member of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster who was not at today’s show tested positive in a PCR exam for COVID-19. She is currently being treated and has no worrying symptoms to report at this time. For the entire roster’s safety, tomorrow’s show in Kanda Myojin Hall and the Itabashi Green Hall show on the 22nd have been cancelled. The person had not been in close contact with DDT wrestlers so today’s DDT show went ahead as scheduled as will tomorrow’s BOYZ show. However, Daisuke Kiso will not work those events because he was on the TJPW show.
Hyper Misao was so thankful for the fan support she got from beating Yuka Sakazaki last week. To prove how important the Tokyo Princess Cup is for her, she gathered together her most important weapons and emptied them in the ring to show Miyu Yamashita they will have a fair fight. Yamashita saw through her plan and blocked the attempted Cold Spray attack. However, Misao had a second can and froze her opponent for a nearfall. Misao used the spray again outside the ring and rolled Yamashita up in the ring apron. Yamashita avoided the countout and tackled Misao while still wrapped up in the apron. Misao used an exposed turnbuckle for another advantage but Yamashita kicked her away. She blocked the Vanitas, hit the Attitude Adjustment and won with the Crash Rabbit Heat. Could this finally be Yamashita’s year to win the tournament?
Meeting Yamashita in the semi-final will be Shoko Nakajima. Her win over Natsumi Maki means Maki will have to wait even longer for her next rematch with Yamashita. Nakajima did the Northern Lights Suplex but couldn’t hold on the bridge for the pin. She corrected that by doing a Double Arm DDT and then the Diving Senton for the victory.
Over on the other side of the bracket, Maki Itoh reached her career best in the tournament, advancing to the semi final over Miu Watanabe. Itoh blocked the Laserbeam strike with a Headbutt then hit the Flying Big Head. Rather than go for the pin, Itoh hit a second Flying Big Head to ensure Watanabe would not kick out.
Waiting for Itoh in the semi final is last year’s winner Mizuki. That means the former Itoh Respect Army explodes! Mizuki used an Avalanche Cutie Special on Yuki Aino but was too damaged to pin her straight away. Aino recovered and hit the Venus DDT. She went for the UBV but Mizuki countered it with a Casadora and a Double Stomp. She hit the standard Cutie Special to put Aino away.
The Tokyo Princess Cup semi final matches are Mizuki Vs Maki Itoh and Shoko Nakajima Vs Miyu Yamashita. They were supposed to take place tomorrow but they will have to be rescheduled over the sudden cancellation. Should everything be okay after testing then the next show on the calendar is the final itself on 29th August. They can easily do the semi finals and final on the same show if they have to.
