Continuing on from today’s earlier Shinkansen Pro Wrestling match, an 8-Woman Tag rematch of the bullet train bout took place in a more normal environment at Tokyo Joshi Pro’s evening show in Osaka. Raku was coming into the show as the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. She also brought along a bullet train shaped bento box she bought after that match and wanted to eat from it during the main event. Max The Impaler grabbed the box from Raku and gave it over to Pom Harajuku. That made both Raku & Aja Kong furious. Mizuki was still armed with her Pico Pico Hammer from earlier and she jumped off the top rope to strike Max over the head with a mighty downward swing. Kong also attacked Max with the steel can afterwards. Raku saw her moment and went to give Miyu Yamashita the Doctor Yellow but Yamashita countered it into the Attitude Adjustment. She then hit Raku with the Skull Kick for the victory, winning the Iron Man Title from her.

Maki Itoh encouraged Yamashita to pose for victory photos after the match but it was just so Itoh and Yuki Arai could try to roll her up from behind for the championship. Yamashita escaped with the belt and promised the fans she will defend the title for them. However backstage Yamashita was giving a post-match interview when all of a sudden a Rocket Punch flew across the room and knocked her out. It was launched by Sanshiro Takagi and he put the Mecha Fist back on to pin Yamashita for the title. Daisuke Kiso made the three count but declared it was the Mecha Fist that pinned Yamashita, not Takagi. So the new champion is the Mecha Fist! That didn’t last long because Tetsu Inada ran in, pushed Takagi aside and pinned Mecha Fist to win back the championship for himself.

Hyper Misao reminded everyone before the start of Match #5 that Kyoraku Kyomei have won this year’s Max Heart Tournament. She then made Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko mad by asking them if they took part in it this year? She had forgotten they were knocked out in Round 2 and lost their only match in the tournament. Kiryu grabbed the microphone off her and complained about being ran over by Kiryu’s Hyper Mobile three times in the last three months! She dared Misao to wrestle this match without relying on her bike. Misao was able to do just that, although she still used some of her other tricks. Shoko Nakajima hit Kiryu & Neko with a Double 619 and Misao pinned Kiryu with the Hypami Returns.

9. GLEAT & DDT & AAA 6-Man Tag Battle: Takehiro Yamamura, MAO & Yuya Koroku defeated SBK, TAKUMA & Kazuma Sumi when Yamamura pinned Sumi with the Super Super Kick (14:14).
10. GLEAT Vs DDT Premium Battle: Chris Brookes defeated Soma Watanabe with the Ground Manjigatame (15:05).

For the second year in a row GLEAT invited DDT over to their part of the wrestling world for a combined show between the two promotions. The main event was originally planned to be DDT’s Yuki Ueno against GLEAT’s Soma Watanabe but Ueno’s medical scare during the week pulled him from the show. Chris Brookes was moved up to take his place making the new main event a match between the current KO-D Openweight Champion against the previous G-REX Champion. Watanabe missing a Firebird Splash cost him big because from that point Brookes took over. The GLEAT wrestler was able to kick out of the Praying Mantis Bomb but Brookes then started pulling him apart with an Octopus Hold on the mat until Watanabe gave up. Watanabe said he doesn’t get many chances to fight the KO-D Champion so he was determined to win and get a title shot in the process. He asked Brookes to please hold onto the title so when he wins back the G-REX Title they can have their rematch with both belts on the line.

In the slimmest sense possible there was also AAA involvement because SBK & TAKUMA had spent a lot of last year wrestling over there. The TOKYO BAD BOYS teamed up with Kazuma Sumi here because of their shared history within the Dragongate system together. Sumi’s lineage with the company was perhaps a little too close because Takehiro Yamamura confused him for El Lindaman and wanted to beat Sumi for that reason. He got what he wanted because he pinned Sumi with the Super Super Kick while MAO & Yuya Koroku cleared away the TOKYO BAD BOYS.

It is probably not a coincidence that the only GLEAT match with no DDT wrestlers in it also involved Katsuhiko Nakajima.

The show was able to bring HARASHIMA & CIMA together as a team again, adding KAZMA SAKAMOTO to make it a trio. CIMA wanted to fight Yukio Naya in a Sumo match but quickly regretted it. Parker Boudreaux overpowered the trio with his strength before joining up with Naya to slam them around even harder together. SAKAMOTO was tripped near the ropes by Brass Knuckles JUN, allowing Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami to hit a Lariat and win the match. However Naya & Boudreaux came to the other team’s rescue after the match by attacking Kawakami & JUN. HARASHIMA, CIMA & SAKAMOTO then all hit their finishers on the heels to get their revenge.

The current G-REX Champion Kaito Ishida was originally meant to fight Yuki Ishida in an Ishida Showdown. However Yuki was injured so DDT replaced him with Keigo Nakamura. Kaito Ishida tried to beat up Nakamura so bad outside the ring that he would win by countout but Nakamura got back in at 18. Nakamura tried to make a comeback but Ishida cut him down with a Leg Lariat and pinned him with the Buzzsaw Kick. He then slapped Nakamura over the head and stomped on him before leaving the ring.

The G-RULES match between El Lindaman and Ilusion had the following rules applied. There was a 7 minute time limit, 2 Count Pinfalls is enough to win, both wrestlers are allowed 2 rope breaks each before they get ignored and there is a 7 Count outside the ring. Ilusion stuck up his middle finger and shouted “Fuck you!” to Lindaman. When Lindaman blocked a Diving Cross Body he told Ilusion not to use dirty words. He ended up pinning Ilusion with the German Suplex.

Poor JD Lee had no idea what to expect from the other team. One of them was MICHIKO’s otaku alter ego Densha MICHIo who kept fidgeting with her glasses and used her backpack as a weapon. The other was Danshoku Dieno who picked Lee as his target. To-y promised to protect Lee from them but there wasn’t much he could do to stop the opposition. Much to Lee’s relief, the Hell Gate backfired on Dieno & MICHIo and Lee was able to hit the Shooting Star Press on MICHIo to win. But just when he thought he was safe, Dieno caught up to him and gave him the Lip Lock.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SHINKANSEN JOSHI PRO WRESTLING” Results

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SHINKANSEN JOSHI PRO WRESTLING PRODUCED BY SANSHIRO TAKAGI”, 15/02/2025
Nozomi 343 Departing From Tokyo Station
75 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Falls Count Anywhere 8-Woman Tag Match: Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Yuki Arai & Max The Impaler defeated Mizuki, Aja Kong, Miu Watanabe & Raku when Yamashita pinned Raku with the Crash Rabbit Heat Nozomi Special (43:58).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Raku defeated Tetsu Inada (c) by Knockout with the Lullaby (1:20 pm).
*Raku becomes the 1,731st champion.

When DDT held a match inside a travelling bullet train in 2023 it made headlines around the world. So this time Tokyo Joshi Pro wanted in on the action and got Sanshiro Takagi to put the match on a second time.

The train departed from Tokyo Station where Sayuri Namba was on board to start the introductions. When the train arrived at Shinagawa Station, Takagi stepped on board accompanied by Shino Suzuki and Uta Takami. The two of them joined up with Miu Watanabe and Raku so The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) could sing “Upper Kick!” up and down the aisle. However they had technical difficulties midway through. The rest of the wrestlers made their entrances when the train reached Shin-Yokohama Station. Mizuki arrived armed with a Pico Pico Hammer while Aja Kong carried a steel can onboard threatening to rip the bullet train apart!

The match started off with Watanabe and Miyu Yamashita. There was enough room in the aisle for Yamashita to Snapmare Watanabe and follow up with a Soccer Ball Kick. Yuki Arai fought with Mizuki but was chased down the train by Kong. Raku borrowed a cup of ice cream (which has a reputation on the Shinkansen of being served frozen solid) from one of the passengers and hit Arai over the head with it.

As the train was approaching Mt. Fuji, Kong wanted to get a good photo from the window. While she was looking for a good spot, Raku was trying to sing Arai to sleep in the middle of the aisle with towels and a pillow provided. Kong finally saw Mt. Fuji in the distance and stepped on top of Arai so she could lean over and get the best view.

Raku’s lullaby also sent Yamashita & Maki Itoh to sleep so Kong & Raku did the Oyasumi Express on them. Max The Impaler then took centre stage and had a violent pillow fight with Raku. Itoh took over by hitting the 300km/h Kokeshi on Raku and following up with the Cutest Knuckle Punch In The World.

The 121000000 pair started using double team moves until Mizuki attacked them with the Pico Pico Hammer. After that a a chain of multiple Headscissors was formed stretching down the aisle. Itoh then used a Boston Crab to flip the chain over.

A face off between Kong and Itoh then took place. Kong hit her over the head with the steel can but Itoh’s iron head took the blow no problem. Kong then Heabutted her but again she withstood the impact. As Itoh jumped onto Kong’s back to put her in a Sleeper Hold, the doorway opened for the arrival of the ticket inspector. Oh, the inspector is Minoru Suzuki!

When Suzuki saw the fighting going on he threw away the tickets and walked right over to confront the wrestlers. Not because they were causing trouble but because he wanted to show Itoh what a real Sleeper Hold on Kong looks like! He scared everyone off and got into fighting with Kong. Itoh found Mecha Mummy’s Mecha Fist on board and fired a Rocket Punch at Kong. She dodged it and Suzuki got hit instead. Suzuki then attacked Itoh and Kong joined in, causing Takagi to step in and break up the chaos.

Takagi successfully took Suzuki away so the match could continue. Watanabe lifted Itoh up into the Canadian Backbreaker and spun around in circles. Itoh was able to fight back by giving Watanabe the Stunner.

The match broke down into a free for all. Mizuki fought with Arai while Kong and Max were charging down both ends of the aisle to smash into each other in the middle. Their brawl made its way into another train car.

Yamashita targeted Raku with a High Kick. Others stopped her from giving Raku the Attitude Adjustment but she fought all of them off. Raku was left as a sitting duck as Yamashita ran down the aisle and hit her with the Crash Rabbit Heat at the combined travelling speed of 600km/h! Her math is the train was travelling at 285km/h which means the speed she hits the Crash Rabbit Heat reached 315km/h. That put an end to the match with Yamashita, Itoh, Arai & Max as the winners.

The match was finished but the train journey hadn’t completed yet to Yamashita, Itoh & Arai stuck around to talk about their victory. Arai asked if she could go home early because the train hadn’t even reached Nagoya yet. She had fun but it was tough and doing one more match like this would be enough for her. Itoh wanted to know why did Minoru Suzuki get on the train half-naked wearing a tiny hat? She has never seen a perverted train conductor like him before. She also wants TJPW to do more crazy matches in weird locations. She suggested they can go do one in Yamashita’s house. Yamashita refused and said it would be rude to do that without her permission. Itoh then suggested they do the match at Yamashita’s parents’ house. Again Yamashita refused because apparently one time she and Yuka Sakazaki actually had a wrestling match inside somebody’s house and they ended up destroying the place…

The train journey did not end there though. There was a bonus event for VIP passengers involved Arai, Raku & Max. While it was taking place, Tetsu Inada suddenly entered the train asking if he could take part too because he is the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. He was told no by Daisuke Kiso but refused to leave so Raku approached him from behind and started to sing a lullaby. Inada fell asleep right where he stood. Kiso then raised and dropped his arm three times signaling that he was knocked out, meaning Raku is now the new Iron Man Champion!
