Looks like the card is mostly complete. Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh have a mystery partner tag match to prepare for. Yamashita had a recent interview where she said she would like to wrestle more joshi legends, naming Meiko Satomura and Aja Kong as examples. Yamashita has her history with Satomura and Itoh has had a go with Kong before so those two are good predictions. But what if the mysteries aren’t women? Itoh teams with Chris Brookes a lot and let’s face it, him showing up to wrestle on a joshi show shouldn’t surprise anyone at this point. In that case then Yamashita can team with Antonio Honda again. It will be just a little over a year since their match with Kenny Omega & Riho so a reunion can be in order. Those are the two directions I could think of based on the past of both women.
Raku is still searching for her first singles win. Can she get it by beating the returning Yuna Manase?
Mei Suruga from Gatoh Move makes her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut. She’s been on DDT shows before but her only TJPW related match was against NEO Biishiki-gun in 2018.
