Perhaps we are starting to see what Tokyo Joshi Pro is going to look like in the near future with the show that went on today. Due to Yuka Sakazaki travelling overseas and Rika Tatsumi having to pull out on short notice, Mizuki was the only champion at the show today. She remained as her usual self in the main event, passing the end of show speech to Yuki Arai. But in her backstage interview after the main event Mizuki started crying when she was asked about Sakazaki’s graduation coming up in December. She’s worried that if she does not do her best then Sakazaki won’t be able to have her graduation match with peace of mind. That is why Mizuki thinks now is not the time to get sad.
This was Maki Itoh’s final match before she goes on another long expedition of America. She is sure she will return to Japan all beaten up because there are more tougher opponents for her to face in America than in Japan. However she wants to enjoy the experience and work hard so she can come back and win the Princess Of Princess Title from Mizuki. Maybe that is the reason Yuki Kamifuku took the blame for their team losing in the main event. Although Kamifuku also realizes she’s been dropping falls a little bit more ever since she turned 30 in February.
Little by little, Shino Suzuki is getting the hang of this pro wrestling thing. Today’s match was an important one for her because it was taking place in her home city of Shizuoka. Hyper Misao was excited to team with her because they both wear green and she got Suzuki to introduce her in a tour guide way. She also convinced Suzuki to use her tour guide flag as a weapon to choke their opponents with. However Nao Kakuta & Toga recovered momentum and won the match in the end with Kakuta getting the pin on Suzuki.
Rika Tatsumi was unable to be at the show due to being in poor physical condition. Her scheduled opponent Wakana Uehara was added into the 3 Way Match to turn it into a tag team bout.
