Today’s double header in Shinjuku FACE is the chance for DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro to say their goodbyes to the venue as part of the Shinjuku FACE Countdown Series. TJPW were up first with their go home show for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII”. It is here that Suzume scored a clean and direct pinfall over Yuki Arai while Arisu Endo got a boost in confidence going up against Miyu Yamashita. It helps that Daisy Monkey has the better experience with tagging together than Arai & Yamashita do. Yamashita accidentaly got Arai with a High Kick and Daisy Monkey took advantage, isolating Arai until Suzume could pin her with the Ring A Bell. Afterward Suzume praised Arai for being strong but also said she now found the path to beating her for the Princess Of Princess Title. Arai accepts that she still has room to grow stronger and she will be the one still standing next week. Yamashita on the other hand is having lots of fun wrestling Endo and can’t help but get excited just from seeing the smile on Endo’s face. Endo told her she will give Yamashita goosebumps in their EVE International Title match.

Daydream seems to have gotten over their relationship trouble and are now back on the same page. There was still tension between Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi at the start of their match, particularly when it came to who wanted fight Chika Nanase more. But Daydream got back in sync to stop an attack from Yuki Aino and hugged each other to show their problems are now water under the bridge. Sakura Hattori did her part to set Daydream up for the victory too. Tatsumi says the team’s bond has grown stronger and nobody can break it now. Aino told Haru Kazashiro they need to go do some serious training at a particular place if they want to beat Daydream next week. When Tatsumi heard that she said there is not enough time left for Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed to get strong enough.

The final singles match between Yuki Kamifuku and Wakana Uehara got a bit heated at the beginning. Uehara blocked an Eye Poke attempt from Kamifuku. Then when she offered out her hands for a handshake, Kamifuku slapped her across the face instead. Uehara tried using the Banana Pillow to win and even got to move Kamiyu back to the centre of the ring. But Kamiyu fought for the rope break, avoided the Sushi Tornado and won the match with the Diving Famouser. After the match she approached Uehara for a hug only to push her away and give her the middle fingers Stone Cold style. Backstage she admitted she’s been keeping her distance from Uehara ever since Ober Eats lost the Princess Tag Team Titles. It was all to make Uehara learn how to stand on her own two feet. She compares it to a lion pushing its cub out of the den and she is glad to see Uehara is growing without her. Uehara said she is now really fired up for her and Toga to fight VENYU next week.

Match #4 featured all of the active TJPW wrestlers who made their debuts in Shinjuku FACE. Both teams agreed to add a special rule to the match for the occasion. A wrestler would have to shout out their love for Shinjuku FACE or something they like about the venue before applying a pin in order for it to count. A wrestler could do the same while they are trapped in a submission hold to get out of it as if it was a rope break. During the match Uta Takami said you can the the ring from anywhere in the room and they also sell delicious ice cream. Mahiro Kiryu apologised for the weird rules before saying the venue is packed with pro wrestling history. Kira Summer praised the staff for working hard to explain things to her in English. Shino Suzuki said it is a warm venue and very welcoming even if you forget your wrestling costume. Kiryu told a story about having her debut here in front of friends and family but Suzuki cut her off because it was too long. Hyper Misao brought up that she cut a promo in her debut match here and that’s why she is still here today. It was also where Misao suddenly declared her retirement then changed her mind so the six wrestlers agreed to pause the match and “graduate” from Shinjuku FACE by bowing together in gratitude for the staff and everything else in the building. Misao then shouted that she loves Shinjuku FACE and went on to pin Summer for the victory.

Before the 3 Way Match began, Pom Harajuku stole both Mizuki’s Pico Pico Hammer and Raku’s pillow. She laid both in the middle of the ring and challenged the two to play a Hit And Cover version of Rock Paper Scissors where the winner gets to grab their weapon and hit the loser with it. Mizuki and Raku got annoyed with the game and both decided to hit Harajuku with their weapons instead. There was also a point Harajuku had both of her shoes taken off as well as one of Raku’s. Everyone then tried to fight each other armed with one shoe each.

The entire locker room gathered together at the end of the show. Yamashita said getting to Shinjuku FACE was the first goal TJPW wanted to accomplish in their early years. Back then there wasn’t as many roster members or fans in the audience but over time TJPW grew and is now able to sell out their shows. Yamashita believes Shinjuku FACE played a huge role in making TJPW what it is today and it is sad to see the venue go away.
