Earlier today Mizuki, Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh signed the contract for their Princess Tag Team Titles match on 25th November. Yuka Sakazaki was absent from the press conference so Mizuki signed the contract under her name on her behalf. 121000000 were unhappy that Mizuki was allowed to do that but the contract is deemed valid anyway.

1. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Soma Takao & Mizuki Watase
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Yuji Hino, MAO & Yukio Naya

4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: HARASHIMA (0) Vs Yuji Okabayashi (7)
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Konosuke Takeshita (7) Vs Kazusada Higuchi (4)
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Tetsuya Endo (6) Vs Yuki Ueno (4)

On an interview with Yahoo Japan today, Tetsuya Endo talked about the potential D-Ou Grand Prix final. He is confident he will beat Yuki Ueno because Ueno has already fought all of the biggest opponents in their block and is damaged coming into this match. However Endo is not going to let his guard down and is aiming for the win. He can qualify for the final with a draw but Endo wants to win. He doesn’t like either Konosuke Takeshita or Yuji Okabayashi but would rather face Takeshita in the final to make it clear he is better than him.

Endo wants to end 2021 on a high note because he has a big plan for 2022. He wants to launch his own unit! Endo has been part of Happy Motels and DAMNATION but has never been a true leader of his own stable. He had a one off trial run with Pheromones at the Tokyo Dome but it wasn’t for him (he was happy showing off his butt though). Instead, Endo has his own ideas. He is temporarily naming this unit Atsumare Entetsu no Mori and as an insect lover he wants the logo to look like a beetle. The potential unit will have three ironclad rules: 1) Do not gamble or play pachinko. 2) Do not drink every day. 3) Aim to get married. Endo already lives by these rules and think they give him a fulfilling lifestyle. He has begun looking for candidates to join his new group.

Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

2. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Special Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Taison Maeguchi Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Tominaga
3. Ganpro Special Mixed 6-Man Tag Match: Yuna Manase, YuuRI & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Moeka Haruhi, HARUKAZE & Baliyan Akki
4. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Semi-Final: Yumehito Imanari Vs Tetsuhiro Kuroda
5. LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Semi-Final: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title – LEC Cleanpa! Presents Ganbare☆Climax 2021 Final: X Vs X

The Ganbare☆Pro regulars still left in the Ganbare☆Climax have been hard at training for the final rounds. Shuichiro Katsumura held a practice session with Ken Ohka and Minoru Fujita to work out how to beat Tatsuhito Takaiwa. He figured Fujita knows him well and would be a good instructor. Unfortunately Fujita came to practice in a bad mood because he spilled coffee over his hoodie on the train ride over. Also Ohka isn’t able to copy Takaiwa’s moveset so Katsumura easily countering all of his attacks doesn’t mean much. An angry Fujita told Katsumura that Takaiwa won’t be that easy and he cannot take him lightly. Katsumura left the training disappointed that he didn’t come out of it with a proper gameplan.

Meanwhile Yumehito Imanari spent his training learning how to resist the Lariat. Tetsuhiro Kuroda used that move loads of times to beat Ohka in the previous round. He called up Miss Mongol with the logic that learning from an FMW wrestler will help him beat another FMW wrestler. Mongol’s husband Akinaga Toyomoto attended the training as an observer. Imanari endured dozens of Lariats until Toyomoto pointed out that Mongol was using her right arm. The training might not be very helpful because Kuroda Lariats with his left arm. Mongol said it doesn’t matter because Imanari is being infused with the souls of FMW. If Imanari makes it to the final, he promises to fight even if his stamina is gone. He is determined to become the first Spirit Of Ganbare Champion!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’21”, 25/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Shoko Nakajima Vs Nodoka Tenma
2. Hyper Misao Vs Yuki Kamifuku
3. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Nao Kakuta, Haruna Neko & Mahiro Kiryu
4. Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
5. Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai
6. International Princess Title: Hikari Noa (c) Vs Miu Watanabe
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh

121000000 understand the big task ahead of them. The Magical Sugar Rabbits have been champions twice and hold the record for most title defences. Yamashita thinks her bond with Itoh is strong enough to help them win. Itoh is skeptical and made Yamashita declare her love for her to prove she really wants to win the tag titles. Yamashita also wants to avenge her loss to Mizuki at the Tokyo Princess Cup and is hoping the match comes down to them against each other one on one. Mizuki likes her because it is the easiest to fight with. She also knows full well how strong Itoh has become. But she thinks their flippant bond isn’t enough to beat her and Sakazaki.

Although they trained and debuted together at the same time, Hikari Noa and Miu Watanabe came from different roads. Before they became wrestlers Noa always loved pro wrestling while Watanabe didn’t know a thing about it. Watanabe says it is because of Noa that she worked hard and earned success in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Little by little she is turning her efforts into confidence. Noa said they are aiming for the same place but following their own paths. She will achieve the record for most International Princess Title defences if she wins.

Yuki Arai has her first singles match in a long time which makes her nervous (she’s only had three singles bouts so far). She wants to show her growth against a strong senior like Rika Tatsumi. It’s a big deal, even Tatsumi will tell you that. She believes pro wrestling is a projection of her life and she has changed a lot of people’s lives. Her examples include preventing Hyper Misao from retiring and inspiring Suzume to become a wrestler. She wants this match to be a big bang that will change Arai’s life! How Arai will change is up to her. Tatsumi is just the spark in this situation.

New Year’s Eve Trios Teams

November 16, 2021

“NEW YEAR’S WRESTLING 2021 ~TOSHIWASURE! SHUFFLE 6-MAN TAG TOURNAMENT”, 31/12/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Toshiwasure! Shuffle 6-Man Tag Tournament – Round 1: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
2. Toshiwasure! Shuffle 6-Man Tag Tournament – Round 1: X, X & X Vs X, X & X

6. Toshiwasure! Shuffle 6-Man Tag Tournament – Semi Final: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
7. Toshiwasure! Shuffle 6-Man Tag Tournament – Final: X, X & X Vs X, X & X

Team Saiyuki – Akito, Daisuke Sekimoto & Jun Kasai
Ikemen’s – Soma Takao, Yuya Aoki & Shuji Ishikawa
I Dream Of Twins, Lizards And Naomi – Naomi Yoshimura, Kota Sekifuda & Brahman Kei (w/ Brahman Shu)
Three Brothers Kawaii – Chris Brookes, Takuya Nomura & X
I’ll Do It!! – Kazusada Higuchi, Ryuji Ito & Shiro Koshinaka
Deadlifters – Konosuke Takeshita, Yuji Okabayashi & Kuishinbo Kamen
Ugo Association – MAO, Yasufumi Nakanoue & Shigehiro Irie
LEFTOVERS – HARASHIMA, Daichi Hashimoto & Kengo Mashimo

A draw was held to determine the eight teams competing in the trios tournament. Each trio also came up with team names for themselves. The most notable team is Konosuke Takeshita, Yuji Okabayashi & Kuishinbo Kamen. They are calling themselves Deadlifters because they claim that is what they all have in common. Takeshita can deadlift 250kg, Okabayashi can lift 300kg and Kamen they guess can probably lift 50kg. Also Takeshita and Okabayashi are currently neck and neck fighting for a spot in the D-Ou Grand Prix final. Kamen is counting on his partners to win the matches without him getting involved.

There are some powerful teams put together. Maybe the strongest was formed entirely out of luck. HARASHIMA, Daichi Hashimoto & Kengo Mashimo were all the last ones left in their pools so they came up with LEFTOVERS as their team name. Mashimo is happy with who he ended up with so he doesn’t care about being picked last.

Akito feels indebted to Daisuke Sekimoto & Jun Kasai because early in his career he worked with Big Japan (he was trained by BJW wrestler Hakaru Imai) and they were his seniors.

The annual NTV new year’s comedy show has been cancelled so Shuji Ishikawa now has time to concentrate on the tournament. Soma Takao is looking forward to teaming with him again. Yuya Aoki thinks all three of them have nothing in common. He believes they can have something in common by becoming tournament winners together.

One team is a reunion of sorts. Naomi Yoshimura and Brahman Kei were on the same team for the 2019 tournament but Brahman Shu was absent with the flu. Now the three of them are together with Kota Sekifuda as the missing piece of the puzzle. They used the song “I Dream Of Naomi” for their entrance in 2019 and Kei wants to reference that again. That is why their team is called I Dream Of Twins, Lizards And Naomi.

Chris Brookes and Takuya Nomura were opponents at the tournament two years ago. There is no heat between them, instead they both think they are cute. The third member of their team is the mystery wrestler and they are sure that wrestler is cute too. Therefore they are Three Brothers Kawaii!

Having the legendary Shiro Koshinaka on their team will encourage Kazusada Higuchi & Ryuji Ito to Hip Attack their way to victory. Higuchi is honoured to team with the two veterans. Ito thinks the team has other specialties but they should win the tournament with the Hip Attack.

There is another team with nothing in common and even worse, none of the members can find anything positive about that. MAO and Shigehiro Irie never got along. MAO describes their relationship as a Cold War that Yasufumi Nakanoue is now in the middle in as a neutral party. He hopes nothing gets bad enough for Nakanoue to press the nuclear button. All Nakanoue can promise is that the team will make things work.

There will be two non-tournament matches also happening on the show.


D-Ou Grand Prix Tiebreakers, Harajuku’s 3rd Anniversary, Owashi Invites Yokosuka Over

November 16, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “IT’S TIME TO GO”, 20/11/2021
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Yuki Aino Vs Moka Miyamoto
2. Hyper Misao Vs Arisu Endo
3. 3 Way Match: Marika Kobashi Vs Moka Miyamoto Vs Mahiro Kiryu
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Mizuki Vs Suzume & Haruna Neko
5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Nodoka Tenma, Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai Vs Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Hikari Noa, Shoko Nakajima & Rika Tatsumi

A premium 10-Woman Tag Match is put together to build up the Korakuen Hall show happening five days later. Four matches are represented here: The Magical Sugar Rabbits Vs 121000000 main event, Hikari Noa Vs Miu Watanabe beneath that, Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai and Shoko Nakajima Vs Nodoka Tenma.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2021 II IN KORAKUEN HALL”, 21/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda, Akito & Yusuke Okada Vs Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura, Kazuki Hirata, Saki Akai & Yuki Ishida
0. Dark Match Shunma Katsumata Produce – My First Hardcore Match: Shunma Katsumata & Toui Kojima Vs Hideki Okatani & Yuya Koroku
1. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Soma Takao & Mizuki Watase
2. Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Yuji Hino, MAO & Yukio Naya
3. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Jun Akiyama (4) Vs Bodyguard (4)
4. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: HARASHIMA (0) Vs Yuji Okabayashi (7)
5. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Konosuke Takeshita (7) Vs Kazusada Higuchi (4)
6. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – A Block: Tetsuya Endo (6) Vs Yuki Ueno (4)

The last day of the group stages is coming down to the wire in both blocks. If Tetsuya Endo wins the main event or it ends in a draw then he qualifies for the final. I think if Yuki Ueno wins he will go straight to the final because he will get the Head To Head tiebreakers over Endo and Yuji Hino. Where it gets confusing is if Jun Akiyama or Bodyguard also wins and we end up with a four way tie. I guess it would still be Ueno because he will have two Head To Head wins in this bubble and the others will just have one. Does that come into effect with Bodyguard thought because he already beat Ueno? Oh my head hurts.

The B Block is more simpler. The race is between Konosuke Takeshita and Yuji Okabayashi who are both unbeaten. If they still end up with the same points after their matches then a sudden death tiebreaker must take place. Their previous match was a draw so there is no other way to determine who goes through (I think there was a G1 that used total match times as a tiebreaker one year but we’re getting too far into the weeds at this point).

Kenta Kobashi and Tetsu Inada will be at the show. Maybe they can figure out the tiebreakers.

5. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Suzume Vs Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Moka Miyamoto

Pom Harajuku is celebrating her 3rd anniversary as a pro wrestler next week so she gets to relive her debut match all over again. She takes on her first ever opponent Yuka Sakazaki in the very same venue where her career began back in 2018.

Two days before they have their match in Korakuen, Hyper Misao and Yuki Kamifuku face off in tag team action.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “DASH! GLIDE! NAGOYA CASTLE!”, 18/12/2021

The biggest challenge of Yuki Arai’s pro wrestling life is coming. She has been asking for a match against Miyu Yamashita and it will happen at her idol home base in Nagoya.

DDT “DRAMATIC EXPLOSION 2021”, 18/12/2021
Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall

1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Susumu Yokosuka, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Akito
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Current Blast Death Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari (c) Vs Atsushi Onita, Sanshiro Takagi & Kuro-chan

The feud between Sanshiro Takagi and Pheromones is reaching extreme levels. A team was needed to take on Takagi, Atsushi Onita & Kuro-chan in the Current Blast Death Match so the challenge was thrown out for Pheromones to put the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line!

Last time Toru Owashi invited a DRAGONGATE wrestler over to a DDT show in Nagoya it worked out pretty well. He’s doing it again by booking Susumu Yokosuka to team with him and Kazuki Hirata. Bet Yokosuka is thrilled, we all know about his dancing efforts. This will be his first time in DDT proper if you ignore the Dramatic Dream Gate shows from 2007 and 2008.

3. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Takato Nakano
4. Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Masato Kamino
5. Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto Vs SAGAT & Fuminori Abe

After looking into the recent rule changes in Japan, BASARA will allow their audience to cheer at their show tomorrow. I think this will be one of the first wrestling shows in Japan to get loud fans back but it is on a very small scale. BASARA have kept their attendance numbers private throughout the entire pandemic for a reason. It’s progress towards getting a good atmosphere back in Japanese wrestling shows but it won’t be a big crowd to begin with.

1. DDT Universal Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Soma Takao
2. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – Final: Winner Of A Block Vs Winner Of B Block

Takao is aiming to take the DDT Universal Title from Sasaki in humiliating fashion. Sasaki doesn’t want to deal with him and would rather defend the belt against somebody he can easily beat up like Yuki Ishida.

7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2021 II – B Block: Chris Brookes Vs MAO

The 6-Man Tag has been changed into a 3 Way Tag Match. Toui Kojima is now part of The 37KAMIINA so he has to be on the same team with Shunma Katsumata. Rather than just switch one wrestler each, DDT still wants the existing teams sticking together for the match so they decided to make it a 3 Way instead.

Okay, now we have the official match order for the show. Konosuke Takeshita versus Yuji Okabayashi is the headlining match.

Pheromones are getting sick and tired of their matches getting stopped before they reach their intended climax. Thanks to some manipulation towards the GM Hisaya Imabayashi, they got their KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles to now be under No DQ rules. It also cannot be called off for any reason related to the team’s inappropriate behaviour.

The trios time limit draw at the last show has left both Hikari Noa and Miu Watanabe wanting more against each other. Watanabe asked Noa for a singles match and Noa is willing to put the IP Title on the line for it. She has defended the title against Raku already so if she beats Watanabe then everyone can agree that Noa is the best of the Up Up Girls!

The Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai match that was originally meant to happen in August is now taking place in November. Arai is looking forward to it but Tatsumi slapped her across the face.

Some of the D-Ou Grand Prix invited press to view their training sessions in the lead up to the tournament. Kazusada Higuchi was taken through special training in Yokohama under Yukio Sakaguchi’s supervision and with Yuki Ishida helping out. First they worked out in a park then they held drills over at the Sakaguchi Dojo to work on Higuchi’s lower body strength. Higuchi said it was a long time since he participated in sumo training, not since before his knee injury. Sakaguchi told Higuchi that the D-Ou is more of a mental game than a physical one. Higuchi agrees it is a good lesson to learn.

Meanwhile MAO visited self-proclaimed Koppojutsu expert Takumi Yano to learn from him. After being shown around the place for an hour, MAO learned new stand up and ground techniques from Yano that focus on body joints. MAO learned a lot but admitted that one day’s training does not mean he can do use the new moves just like that. It will require more training but if he can get ready then he thinks Koppojutsu will be useful against HARASHIMA. Yano encouraged MAO to continue because when he was MAO’s age he was only a year into his Koppojutsu training.

The format is still secret but we know Yoshihiko and Kouzi will be hanging around inside the Tokyo Dome on the day of the show.

Just when things were looking at its bleakest for Yuna Manase, help has come from an unlikely face. Saki Akai wants to see the woman with a never say die attitude that she fought last month. So she is now helping Manase bring that fire back and finally get a win against Yuu Yamagata & HARUKAZE. Yamagata does not know who Akai is but welcomes her participation in the match.

Match 2 for YuuRI’s trial series is against another big name on the joshi scene, Maya Yukihi.

Moeka Haruhi will be on the show. Storyline wise she’s come across as the odd woman out on the Ganbare☆Joshi events so far.

GANBARE☆PRO “LEC CLEANPA! PRESENTS GANBARE☆CLIMAX 2021 2ND ROUND”, 07/11/2021
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Ganpro Special Tag Match: Shota & Soma Takao Vs Keisuke Ishii & Nobuhiro Shimatani
2. Ganpro Special Single Match: Kenichiro Arai Vs Taison Maeguchi
3. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2A: Tetsuhiro Kuroda Vs Ken Ohka
4. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2D: Tatsuhito Takaiwa Vs Mizuki Watase
5. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2C: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Shuichiro Katsumura
6. Ganbare☆Climax 2021 – Round 2B: Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Yumehito Imanari

The Ganbare☆Climax moves on to Round 2. Shinichiro Tominaga eliminating Keisuke Ishii was the big surprise in Round 1. Can he get a Cinderella run going by defeating the last tournament winner Yumehito Imanari? Meanwhile Tetsuhiro Kuroda and Mizuki Watase get their first matches in the bracket. Kuroda is seen as a god by Ken Ohka because he was nice to him back in Ohka’s rookie days. Watase is as motivated as he has ever been to go far and grab some success in the ring.

Soma Takao has been hanging around at Ganbare☆Pro recently to show support for the other wrestlers in his generation. After being by Shota’s side at the last show, Takao was invited to wrestle on a Ganpro show for the first time.

Also at the show will be Shinjiro Otani. He is now the on-site director for Ganpro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’21”, 25/11/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh

The Magical Sugar Rabbits are handed a tough first defence. 121000000 are a united front in the aftermath to the “WRESTLE PRINCESS II” main event. I think. They’re bickering over whether or not Miyu Yamashita really cares about Maki Itoh. It’s the opposite to Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki. Those two with the Princess Tag Titles have in the past been the most unbeatable duo in TJPW. 121000000 need to get their heads together (perhaps literally) if they want to win the belts.

Yuki Arai will be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 10/12/2021
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

The third “TJPW INSPIRATION” brings in TropicaWild from ChocoPro to face MagiRabi. Hikari Noa gets another Hardcore Match but this time it’s Nao Kakuta who is the newcomer to that style. Pom Harajuku is bringing in a more wacky atmosphere by taking on Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. The opener is something more normal with Haruna Neko versus Mahiro Kiryu.

There are a few absences tomorrow. Marika Kobashi is busy with her studies so she won’t be at the show. Kaya Toribami will be absent from Tokyo Joshi Pro until 4th January for “various reasons”. She gave a little explanation on Twitter, saying it has nothing to do with injury or illness. She later tweeted a picture of her passport supposedly taken at an airport and said she’s been busy. Has the little birdie migrated somewhere warmer for the winter?

Some tag teams are reemerging now that there’s new Princess Tag Team Champions. We have Daydream and Kyoraku Kyomei reunited on this show.

6. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Ryota Nakatsu

A new masked wrestler called Lil Kraken showed up at the last BASARA show announcing he will debut at Korakuen Hall. Nothing is known about him but there is a lot of suspicion he is a former BASARA wrestler under the mask. Who could he be? He has the same accent as somebody who left BASARA last year…
