TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”, 31/03/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
1. Shino Suzuki, Chika Nanase & Kira Summer Vs Haru Kazashiro, Runa Okubo & Uta Takami
2. Nao Kakuta & Ami Yumoto Vs Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI
3. Andreza Giant Panda & Kaya Toribami (w/ Haruna Neko) Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
4. Moka Miyamoto & Juria Nagano Vs Wakana Uehara & Toga
5. Rika Tatsumi Vs Masha Slamovich
6. Aja Kong & Max The Impaler Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
7. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs Maki Itoh
8. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Emi Sakura & Chris Brookes
9. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku
10. Princess Tag Team Titles: Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
11. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Miu Watanabe
Eleven matches make up the big Sumo Hall show at the end of the month. One of the big additions to the card is a match that mixes together Tokyo Joshi Pro with DDT, Gatoh Move and AEW all into one potentially massive chaotic blur. Mizuki gets to breath a sigh of relief because she gets to reunite with Yuka Sakazaki and bring back The Magical Sugar Rabbits after all. Facing them is the wild card pairing of Emi Sakura & Chris Brookes! Oddly enough it will be the first time both Sakura & Brookes are wrestling on a TJPW show despite previously being in the ring with TJPW wrestlers elsewhere. Or also in Brookes’ case doing commentary on the shows themselves.
Rika Tatsumi gets a big international singles match with Masha Slamovich. For Slamovich it’s another chance for her to leave her stamp in TJPW after matches with Miyu Yamashita and Max The Impaler back in January. Tatsumi is going to be the third high level opponent in a row for her.
This could probably be the last time Shinken Kusho get to tag together. Juria Nagano will be graduating from TJPW a few weeks later. Moka Miyamoto has been gradually climbing her way up the ladder too so far this year. Their match here looks to me like it will be a showcase for the two of them rather than their opponents Wakana Uehara & Toga.
The animals are all joining forces and it will be up to Raku & Pom Harajuku to save humanity! Or something like that. The last time Andreza Giant Panda was in TJPW he teamed with Haruna Neko. One year later Neko will still be there but she isn’t cleared to wrestle yet. So she’ll hang around ringside while Kaya Toribami fights alongside the panda.
It was already announced that the debuting Ami Yumoto will team with Nao Kakuta. We now know their opponents will be Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI.
Welcome to joshi wrestling where in a match featuring six people the two teenagers are among the most experienced of the bunch. The show opens with three members of the 2023 Class against the three members of the 2024 Class.

GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO SUPER DARIUS ’24”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
111 Fans
1. Kaho Kobayashi defeated Banny Oikawa with the 120% School Boy (9:53).
2. Mixed Tag Match: Alex Lee & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Riara & Shota when Lee pinned Riara with the Vinco Plex (16:40).
3. Sumire Natsu defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Yoran (12:54).
4. GanJo Vs Marvelous: Takumi Iroha & Mio Momono defeated Yuna Manase & YuuRI when Momono pinned YuuRI with the German Suplex (19:48).
An inter-promotional rivaly between Ganbare☆Joshi and Marvelous appears to be growing. At the previous GanJo show Mio Momono beat YuuRI. Since then Momono has been going around claiming she is the main representative of GanJo. Both YuuRI & the returning Yuna Manase weren’t going to take the disrespect lying down and agreed to team up as Nippon Ganbare☆Union again to get revenge. Momono called in Takumi Iroha to make it a two on two battle. The Marvelous team ended up standing tall again with Iroha taking Manase out of the ring so Momono could put YuuRI down for the second show in a row.
After the match Momono again called herself the representative of GanJo and claimed she successfully defended that title today. She put aside the jokes in order to thank Manase & YuuRI for the invitation to wrestle on today’s show. Iroha then teased YuuRI for all of the mistakes she made during the match. She does her best but also hasn’t been training hard enough, which hasn’t changed from when the two of them practiced together as rookies. Manase accepts that Momono now calls herself a GanJo wrestler because the title does not have to belong to just a select few wrestlers. However YuuRI promised to beat Momono to reclaim that spot and also replace her as the top Marvelous representative! Iroha said she will be waiting for GanJo and Ganbare☆Pro to come visit Marvelous in the future.
Sumire Natsu gave Yoshiko Hasegawa advice after their match on how to handle life as a freelance pro wrestler. When Natsu became a freelancer seven years ago she was anxious about whether she could survive in the industry. When Hasegawa turns freelance in April that means they will become business rivals! They will be fighting for the same small seat at the table so they have to do their best to beat the crap out of each other. As long as Hasegawa does not steal that seat from Natsu she will be happy to work together with her. She told Hasegawa she is now responsible for managing her own schedule and merchandise. She also told her the secret about what to do whenever a promoter she does not know puts on a show but that was for Yoppy’s ears only.
The mixed tag match begun with a tribute to the late Akira Toriyama when both teams got into a Kamehameha duel across the ring. The match almost came to a quick end after Riara took Low Kicks from Tyson Maeguchi and was almost counted out for a KO. She recovered and gave Alex Lee a Dropkick to continue fighting. Shota started using Riara as a weapon by Body Slamming her onto Maeguchi. He then tried to repeat the spot with a Suplex but this time Maeguchi rolled out of the way. The other team had their own problems when Lee accidentally hit Maeguchi with a Missile Dropkick. However she got her hands on Riara again and pinned her with the Vinco Plex for the win.
Banny Oikawa almost got to beat Kaho Kobayashi with a European Clutch. Kobayashi kicked out and then stunned her opponent with a Right High Kick. From there she used the 120% School Boy for the three count.

BASARA “BASARA 243 ~TAKAGARI 23~”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. SAGAT defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Goregrind (8:27).
2. KUBITO & Yasu Urano defeated Gouma Ryu & Banana Senga when KUBITO submitted Ryu with a Crossface Lock (7:24).
3. Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato with the Tsuki no Ishi (12:42).
4. Masato Kamino & Chicharito Shoki defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Kamino pinned Judomaster with the Lariat (14:54).
5. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA, Ryota Nakatsu & Fuminori Abe when Kodaka pinned Nakatsu with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (18:52).
2024 could be the year Sento Minzoku is back on top of the BASARA mountain. Minoru Fujita is currently the Union MAX Champion and the result of today’s main event could lead to the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles coming back to him too. Isami Kodaka pinned Ryota Nakatsu to win the match and told Fujita he wants the two of them to challenge Harimao for the titles. Nakatsu complained that Fujita shouldn’t have to be Kodaka’s partner and Ryuichi Sekine should do it instead. However he eventually agreed to put the belts on the line against Fujita & Kodaka. Kazusada Higuchi’s next BASARA appearance is on 19th March but Fujita is already defending the Union MAX Title on 19th March on that show. He refuses to wrestle twice, especially if it is in two championship matches back to back. They all think Higuchi will be available to wrestle in BASARA again on 20th April so they will do the title match there unless they got Higuchi’s schedule wrong.
Sekine announced he will be back to wrestling on a regular schedule with BASARA starting from next month. He made it a goal to work his way into becoming a champion again.
Yesterday BASARA reported that Takato Nakano had a fever but tested negative for covid. They decided to pull him from the show as a precaution and brought in Chicharito Shoki to replace him. If that wasn’t enough, it was announced that the love sickness Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi is suffering from has gotten worse so he couldn’t wrestle today either. The masked Judomaster was suspiciously in the venue again to take his place for the second show in a row. He seemed to have a better understanding of pro wrestling this time but still lost to Masato Kamino.
Today is the first time Gouma Ryu wrestled in Takashimadaira Kumin Center for a BASARA show. He thought he was taking part in another Pro Wrestling Trial but Banana Senga forgot to bring his outfit. They held a court session arguing whether or not injuring your opponent in a pro wrestling match should be a crime. They told KUBITO and Yasu Urano to wrestle each other in order to provide evidence. None of their actions injured either of them so the referee/judge declared them Not Guilty. Ryu did not accept the result and convinced Senga to fight the other two. KUBITO & Urano quickly beat them.
