Kobe Art Center

1. Chris Brookes defeated Yuya Koroku with the Grounded Octopus Stretch (10:17).
2. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Akito & Toui Kojima when Paul pinned Kojima with the Death Valley Bomb (11:57).
3. Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Yuki Ishida when Naya pinned Ishida with a Big Boot (10:11).
4. Kobe Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Antonio Honda defeated Genki Horiguchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Iino pinned Hirata with a Lariat (0:22).
4a. Rematch: Genki Horiguchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Antonio Honda when Horiguchi pinned Honda with the Backslide From Anal (12:27).
5. DISASTER BOX Vs Eruption!: HARASHIMA & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when Yoshimura pinned Okatani with the Throwaway Power Bomb (13:37).
6. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata when Endo pinned Katsumata with the Burning Star Press (19:59).
In response to yesterday’s quick result, Tetsuya Endo didn’t take Yuki Ueno lightly today. Instead he attacked Ueno from the bell and applied his own Sleeper Hold with the intention to put the match away early. Ueno however was able to break out of the move and the match went on its usual pace from there. BURNING picked apart The 37KAMIINA by getting rid of MAO, cutting off Ueno and then focusing all of their attacks on Shunma Katsumata from that point onward. Jun Akiyama slammed him down in position for Yusuke Okada to hit a Diving Headbutt. Endo then pinned Katsumata with the Burning Star Press after the Swivel Torture Rack Bomb. After the match Endo told Ueno it is the champion’s responsibility to have a strong sense of self worth. On 1st May he will prove that his own beliefs are stronger than Ueno’s.
Eruption got to see first hand that HARASHIMA is in good form going into their tag match on 1st May. HARASHIMA said he cannot wait to fight Kazusada Higuchi again because he is still feeling his Chops from the match. HARASHIMA is firing on all cylinders so he is very excited to team with Hikaru Sato against Eruption at Yokohama Budokan. Meanwhile Higuchi confirmed that he, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani are the trio entering the tournament for the vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. He wants to make sure that all members of Eruption are active and successful together.
Genki Horiguchi’s big appearance in DDT was spoiled when the match began and ended in the middle of his entrance before he could even make it to the ring. Horiguchi tried to take the result in his stride because he gets this is DDT and nobody in DRAGONGATE acts this way besides Kono Mama Ichikawa. But he couldn’t let it go and asked everyone to let him do his entrance again and then have a rematch. The match restarted in the middle of his entrance again but this time he made it to the ring in time to prevent another quick finish. However now he was doing a full match that meant he had to go through Pheromones. Luckily for him he pressed Antonio Honda face first into Danshoku Dieno’s butt before pinning him with his signature Backslide. Kazuki Hirata thanked him after the match and asked to dance with him. He explained that his ring skills improved after dancing with Susumu Yokosuka so dancing with Horiguchi will improve them even more! Horiguchi agreed and danced wearing the Hirata GO! glasses. Toru Owashi told him backstage that nothing that happened today is anything to be ashamed of. He promised if Horiguchi does get in trouble with his office then he will ask Sanshiro Takagi to take some of the responsibility.
In the opening match Chris Brookes sent a message to Jun Akiyama by pushing the referee Tomomitsu Matsunaga into Yuya Koroku. He then followed up by giving Koroku the Exploder Suplex before finishing him off with the Octopus Stretch. The Exploder Suplex was done on purpose but Brookes swears the referee push was an accident. Akiyama took the message and repeated his view on the matter. Treating the referee that way is dangerous and if Daisuke Kiso is in charge of the upcoming KO-D Tag Team Titles match he will risk getting injured. However if Yukinori Matsui will be the official then it’s not as much of a problem because Akiyama thinks he is tough enough to handle it.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR ’22”, 24/04/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
205 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Yuki Aino defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Venus DDT (8:18).
2. Rika Tatsumi defeated Kaya Toribami with the Figure 4 Leg Lock (8:00).
3. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Yuki Kamkifuku & Haruna Neko when Suzume pinned Neko with the Ring A Bell (12:16).
4. Hyper Misao defeated Raku with a Modified Chicken Wing Face Lock (7:02).
5. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku when Itoh submitted Harajuku with the Itoh Punish (11:23).
6. Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta & Moka Miyamoto defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Yuki Arai when Noa pinned Mizuki with the Rotating Foot Hold (11:39).
The Magical Sugar Rabbits took a rare direct loss in the main event when Hikari Noa pinned Mizuki under dubious circumstances. The blue turnbuckle pad was loosened up at some point during the match and Nao Kakuta pulled it off right when Noa threw Mizuki into the corner. Mizuki hit the exposed turnbuckle face first and was pinned with a roll up aftarward. Yuka Sakazaki responded badly to the result and attacked Free WiFi with the corner pad after the match. When MagiRabi & Yuki Arai left, Free WiFi laughed over how mad Sakazaki was. They also encouraged Moka Miyamoto not to let her guard down just because they won today. Free WiFi also understood that the audience were expecting MagiRabi to close out the show today with their usual “Happy Happy” catchphrase, so they had to think of their own cute catchphrase on the spot. They decided on “Denpa Ryoko (Clear Radio Waves) Bibibibi!”
After a while away from each other, Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh are back on the same page as tag team. Yamashita wonders if keeping some distance from Itoh every now and then is the key to make 121000000 successful. Itoh agrees because she once heard that time spent not seeing each other is what nurtures love. Yamashita hasn’t stopped smiling since she found out she will wrestle against Hikaru Shida and she sees how meaningful it is for Miyamoto to team with her. Itoh wants to beat Shida so she can influence AEW and the world. She does not have any martial arts experience but she has a black belt in cuteness!
Recently on Twitter Raku has been doing a project comparing DDT wrestlers to their train counterparts. Hyper Misao asked her to figure out what kind of train she is and Raku picked the Green Giant train from China. Misao did not like that answer because she wanted to be the Hayabusa Express. She used today’s match as an excuse to take her frustration out on Raku over it.

DDT “THE WORLD’S BEST ROJO PRO WRESTLING TOURNAMENT ~KING OF STREET WRESTLING~”, 23/04/2022
WRESTLE UNIVERSE
0 Fans
1. King Of Street Wrestling – Final – Nagano Kawanakajima Battleground Site: Chris Brookes defeated Abdullah Kobayashi with a Diving Senton from the Ladder (20:55).
The King Of Street Wrestling Final took place over in the Senkgoku Era battlefield of Kawanakajima in Nagano. A fitting place for two warriors to have their final showdown. Chris Brookes was spotted first praying at a shrine before putting on full body armor made out of cardboard. He walked over to the starting area where Abdullah Kobayashi was there waiting for him in his own cardboard armor. The duel began with a clash and off they went into the battlefield.
Brookes got the upper hand when he tied Kobayashi up with a rope and rolled him down a hill. Kobayashi fought back by shoving grass into his opponent’s face before knocking him into a nearby stream. They fought their way over to a playground and took it easy on each other because there were children nearby. Once they moved away from the playground they got violent again. Kobayashi grabbed some splintered wood and scraped it over Brookes’s face. He then placed Brookes on a dolly and rolled him down a hill into a castle of chairs!
The deciding moment came when Kobayashi placed Brookes onto a pile of plastic boxes. He went for the Bakachinga Elbow but crashed through the boxes by himself after Brookes rolled out of the way. Brookes climbed up a nearbyy ladder and hit a Diving Senton onto his opponent’s back. That was enough for the three count making Brookes the King Of Street Wrestling! Kobayashi congratulated Brookes and handed him the trophy. The two celebrated together to close out the tournament.

DDT “DDT FREE -APRIL-”, 22/04/2022
Shinjuku FACE
353 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
0. Dark Match: Soma Takao defeated Yuki Ishida with the Official Endless Waltz (4:52).
1. Special Tag Match: Shishamo Power & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Akito & Yukio Naya when Power pinned Akito with La Magistral Cradle (10:36).
2. Saki Akai & Maya Yukihi defeated Antonio Honda & Kazuki Hirata when Yukihi pinned Hirata with the Snowstorm (10:51).
3. KANON defeated Toui Kojima with the Just Cobra Twist (6:21).
4. HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari by Disqualification when Imanari attacked the referee (12:03).
5. DAMNATION T.A Vs Eruption!: Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani when Sasaki pinned Okatani with a School Boy (10:18).
6. Special Tag Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata defeated Asuka & Yuji Hino when MAO pinned Asuka with an Oklahoma Roll (17:04).
7. Road To MEGA MAX BUMP 2022! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi defeated Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku by TKO when Ueno used a Sleeper Hold on Endo (5:08).
Has Tetsuya Endo been taking Yuki Ueno too lightly all this time? The main event match between BURNING and The 37KAMIINA only lasted five minutes when Ueno quickly gave Endo the WR then choked him out with a Torso Sleeper Hold. He didn’t want to insult Endo afterwards for letting his guard down even though Endo has done nothing but insult him for weeks now. However Ueno had to tell Endo he does not have the determination of a champion! On 1st May Ueno promises to win the KO-D Openweight Title so he can carry DDT on his back as a great champion while Konosuke Takeshita represents the company overseas.
The match was so short that it didn’t give CDK or Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada enough time to test each other out. Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi acted like they were tired anyway because they are double tag champions. The hard work is worth it because their dream is to have title defences in Thailand and tour across Southeast Asia. Akiyama sees the positive side of the match going short because it means he didn’t have to watch CDK cheat or get the referee physically involved again. He is concerned they could get somebody like Daisuke Kiso injured if they continue to make him do wrestling moves against his will (he thinks Yukinori Matsui could tough it out though).
After Asuka humiliated MAO at the press conference a few days ago, MAO turned the tables by pinning her in their tag match. The result happened after Yuji Hino missed a Lariat aimed for MAO and turned Asuka inside out with it by mistake. MAO then rolled up Asuka for the win. MAO complained about being pinned with the Michinoku Driver a few weeks agon and then becoming famous among stiletto fetishists when Asuka stepped on him at the press conference. Today’s result makes him very happy and he repeated his threat to beat Asuka in 3 minutes and 70 seconds when the DDT Universal Title is on the line! Shunma Katsumata later corrected him because that would make it 4 minutes and 10 seconds.
Daisuke Sasaki was in a good enough mood to give everyone a hint about DAMNATION T.A’s new member showing up on 1st May. Maybe he is in the venue today? Maybe he just left Japan to go to America? Maybe it is Hideki Okatani actually doing something to change his life instead of just dying his hair red! If you think the person next to you is your friend, he will betray you and join DAMNATION T.A on 1st May!
This time a Pheromones match ended by disqualification instead of the entire match being called off. Danshoku Dieno knows Hisaya Imabayashi was not here today so Pheromones went as lewd as they could knowing the GM was watching the show from home powerless to stop them. Yumehito Imanari filmed his camera as close to Yuki Iino’s backside as possible for example. Dieno said Imabayashi should record his tearful apology video as soon as possible because this is all his fault!
KANON’s journey through the DDT wrestlers of his generation is leaving him with some scars. Toui Kojima chopped his chest raw but a Back Drop from KANON was used to set up his signature Cobra Twist for the victory.
Maya Yukihi is fitting in really well with DDT. She poked Antonio Honda in the eyes with Gongitsune and had Kazuki Hirata beaten with a Mexican Stretch until Honda tripped and accidentally placed the Hirata GO! Glasses onto her face. Yukihi experienced the power surge of Hirata’s dance and went wild on everyone, including Saki Akai. She used the momentum to pin Hirata with the Snowstorm.
The return of Shishamo Power (looking a little bit smaller than the last time he was in the ring) had him & Naomi Yoshimura defeat the meat eating team of Akito & Yukio Naya. He was attacked by the sore losers after the match when suddenly another masked wrestler ran out and rescued him. The masked wrestler introduced himself as Unagi Mask from Shibushi City. The two joined forces and challenged the meat eaters to a match on 8th May.
The vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles will be rewarded to the winners of a 4 team tournament held throughout May. The previous champions DAMNATION T.A do not like being stripped of the belts but they are entering with their mystery wrestler taking the injured Minoru Fujita’s place. DISASTER BOX and Eruption are also entering teams. The final trio taking part are Akito, Hikaru Machida & Thanomsak Toba. Akito saw Machida’s matches in the King Of Street Wrestling tournament and thinks he has a lot of potential to do pro wrestling inside the ring. Machida doesn’t know any wrestling moves but is confident to challenge pro wrestlers with his kickboxing ability. Toba is one of the few pro wrestlers to compete wearing boxing gloves and never considered making Machida his successor until he heard the idea.
Even though Imabayashi was absent from the show he did send a statement to be read out before the matches began. He has appointed Pokotan as the Iron Man Retrieval Captain. Pokotan has been ordered to win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Shinichiro Kawamatsu!

DDT/ONLY WE “MAX BUMP 2022 TOUR IN CHIBA”, 17/04/2022
Chiba 2AW Square
116 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Soma Takao defeated Yuya Koroku with the Official Endless Waltz (8:41).
2. Pheromones Vs The Iyasareru!: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda ended in a No Contest (11:33).
3. Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani defeated Hiroshi Yamato, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida when Higuchi pinned Ishida with the Brain Claw Slam (9:20).
4. Yukio Naya & KANON defeated Akito & Shunma Katsumata when Naya pinned Katsumata with the Back Drop (13:20).
5. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada defeated Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toui Kojima when Okada pinned Kojima with the Sudden Death (20:29).
6. DDT x ONLY WE Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Yuji Hino & Quiet Storm defeated Daisuke Sasaki, Shogun Okamoto & Akira Raijin when Storm pinned Raijin with the 50cm Arm Lariat (14:13).
Man, DDT helps out ONLY WE by co-promoting a few shows with them and they end up in the middle of a faction war! HARASHIMA sided with ONLY WE in the main event while Daisuke Sasaki teamed with their rivals from PERON GRANDES. The matchup led to Sasaki facing off with Yuji Hino with their past in DAMNATION together still fresh on their minds. Meanwhile Shogun Okamoto & Akira Raijin fought dirty whenever they could with plenty of ringside brawling and chair attacks. In the end however Quiet Storm fought from behind and with the help of his teammates, pinned Raijin with the 50cm Arm Lariat.
After the match Sasaki & Okamoto attacked ONLY WE with chairs until Yukio Naya ran into the ring for the rescue. Storm challenged Okamoto to a No DQ 6-Man Tag Match between ONLY WE and PERON GRANDES on 5th June when DDT and ONLY WE hold their next show in Chiba together. It will be Hino, Storm & Naya against Okamoto, Raijin and third member of their unit.
Tetsuya Endo and Yuki Ueno were stuck fighting outside the ring while their trios match reached its conclusion. Yusuke Okada picked up the win for his team and declared that BURNING will be holding both the KO-D Openweight Title and KO-D Tag Team Titles at the end of the Yokohama Budokan show on 1st May. On The 37KAMIINA side, everyone was frustrated with the loss as they move onto life without Konosuke Takeshita. According to Ueno, Takeshita left Japan this afternoon.
KANON is quickly learning that wrestling in DDT is not always a walk in the park (not literally in this case but there’s plenty of time for that yet). Despite his size advantage he had his struggles wrestling against Akito & Shunma Katsumata even though he ended up being on the winning team with Naya. What KANON learned coming out of the match is to become more ambitious otherwise he won’t rise above everyone else in DDT anytime soon.
A fired up Hideki Okatani tried picking a fight with Naomi Yoshimura but ended up having Yuki Ishida wanting a go at himself instead. Okatani even got Hiroshi Yamato mad by making fun of the seaweed he likes to sell at his merch stand. Good thing he had the rest of Eruption there to watch his back.
Everyone was given a scary warning when Danshoku Dieno said that Yuki Iino was not wearing anything underneath his wrestling gear today. The Iyasareru came up with a smart idea to tape his straps to his shoulders to prevent him from pulling them down. Unfortunately Iino eventually found the power to free himself from the tape and his costume. That led to Pheromones taking the match out of control, Hisaya Imabayashi calling it off and getting publicly executed for his troubles.

2. Miyu Yamashita, Raku & Yuki Arai defeated Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Kamifku & Mahiro Kiryu when Yamashita pinned Kiryu with the Attitude Adjustment (12:50).
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Maki Itoh & Haruna Neko when Sakazaki pinned Neko with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (13:45).
4. Hyper Misao, Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto defeated Shoko Nakajima, Suzume & Arisu Endo when Misao pinned Endo with the Hypami Returns (12:52).
5. Marika Kobashi Graduation Commemorative Match – 1 Vs 20 Handicap Tag Match: Shoko Nakajima, Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Maki Itoh, Miyu Yamashita, Rika Tatsumi, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta, Yuki Kamifuku, Suzume, Arisu Endo, Moka Miyamoto, Pom Harajuku, Haruna Neko, Mahiro Kiryu & Yuki Arai (3) defeated Marika Kobashi (0) (21:10).
5a. Everyone pinned Marika Kobashi with the Goodnight Express (2:26).
5b. Raku submitted Marika Kobashi with a Front Neck Lock (17:41).
5c. Miyu Yamashita pinned Marika Kobashi with the Attitude Adjustment (21:10).
Marika Kobashi has called time on her wrestling career in Tokyo Joshi Pro. While it is not a full on retirement from pro wrestling, she wants to focus on other priorities for the remainder of her college life. So who knows, maybe this won’t be the last time we see her in the squared circle again somewhere. Her final match was a special 1 Vs 20 Handicap match with the goal for either side to win three falls. The first fall began with Kobashi taking on Shoko Nakajima. Soon Raku was tagged in and her Goodnight Express spot ended up with the entire team of 20 all piling on top of Kobashi to pin her. In the second fall, the team launched a Train Attack on Kobashi. Tetsuya Koda was forced by Yuka Sakazaki to join in. Kobashi cut him off with a kick and pinned him with the Bakachinga Elbow but it didn’t count. Raku instead got involved again and used Kobashi’s signature submission hold the Front Neck Lock against her to secure the second fall. The third fall ended up being the final one when Miyu Yamashita pinned Kobashi with the Attitude Adjustment.
After the match Kobashi was given gifts and bouquets from the roster. She said when she first joined TJPW she didn’t know how to interact with everyone. She hit her walls but pro wrestling was always there to support her. It is what made her into the strong and affectionate person she is today. She reminded everyone her decision is to graduate, not to retire, because she has a desire to move onto new things that are not pro wrestling. She hopes these new experiences will make her a more wonderful pro wrestler and that some day she can meet everyone in TJPW again. She made a promise to beat Abdullah Kobayashi so neither of them can retire until it happens.
Today’s preview match between Shoko Nakajima and Hyper Misao saw the upcoming challenger get the better of the champion. Misao did so by attacking Nakajima with the Princess Of Princess Title belt! Misao grabbed the title and posed with it during her pre-bell ambush, then later used it as a weapon after a ref bump. She took out Nakajima with the Hypami Returns and used the same move on Arisu Endo to win the match. Misao thinks Nakajima’s upcoming visit to England is not an excursion but a desertion. Today’s win is good for Misao because she believes it sends out the message that the title will belong to her sooner or later. Nakajima said she always has fun whenever she teams with Misao but being on the other end of her pranks and tactics in the ring makes her angry.
The 9th annual Tokyo Princess Cup will began with three consecutive shows at Ryogoku KFC Hall on the 16th, 17th and 18th July. It will move over to Shinjuku FACE on the 23rd, then the Quarter Finals will take place in Otemachi Mitsui Hall on the 31st. The semi-finals are at Korakuen Hall on 13th August and the final will be in the same venue on the 14th.

1. King Of Street Wrestling – Semi-Final – Shizuoka Fumotoppara: Chris Brookes defeated Hikaru Machida with the Octopus Stretch on top of a tree (22:24).
2. King Of Street Wrestling – Semi-Final – Kanagawa Ofuronokuni: Abdullah Kobayashi defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Diving Bakachinga Elbow into the bubble bath (22:07).
The King Of Street Wrestling semi finals began with a match in a Shizuoka camping site. With the glorious sight of Mt. Fuji in the background, Chris Brookes and Hikaru Machida had the entire field for themselves to fight in. It started off as a kickboxing match with Brookes also wearing gloves. Machida kept knocking him down easily so Brookes gave up the act and kicked him below the belt. Machida had Thanomsak Toba coaching him and also helping out at one point. They both put Brookes on a trolley and rolled him down a hill. Brookes returned attacking Machida with a garbage can, chairs and fireworks. Machida fought back by using the Iai Punch to smash a chair into Brookes. He chased him over to a nearby tent where Brookes caught him with a surprise attack. Brookes hit a Michinoku Driver onto a pile of chairs but Machida then Iai Punched Brookes onto a pile of plastic boxes. Brookes climbed up a tree trying and dared Machida to follow him. Machida had difficulty because of his gloves so he took them off and began climbing. That turned out to be a genius plan from Brookes because once they were both up there, he got the upper hand and applied the Octopus Hold. Machida had nowhere to go and couldn’t escape so he gave up.
The other semi final had Shunma Katsumata with the home field advantage against Abdullah Kobayashi. The two met each other outside the Kanagawa Ofuronokuni both dressed for the sauna experience. They fought their way into the building (with the referee guiding them in the right direction). They took brief breaks in between the action to relax and enjoy their surroundings. They almost took things too far by looking for excuses to enter the women’s bath area so instead they went into the sauna area. There they met the resident heat master Katsumata Inoue who made the room even hotter for them. Kobayashi couldn’t take it and removed his wrestling gear to reveal he was wearing a fundoshi underneath! Katsumata did the same but he was wearing the O-Back from his recent Ladder match against Yuki Iino. The match had to continue and the two of them succeeded in breaking into the women’s bath area. It was empty so they had free reign to fight wherever they wanted. Katsumata did a Missile Dropkick into a bath. He then climbed a ladder and jumped off for a literal Splash into Kobayashi. However Kobayashi took control of the match and hit the Bakachinga Elbow into the bath. Katsumata couldn’t recover and was pinned for the three count. He got his own back in the end though by stripping Kobayashi of his fundoshi.
The final between Chris Brookes and Abdullah Kobayashi will be held at a Sengoku battle site in Kawanakajima, Nagano. The match will be shown on 23rd April.

1. FUMA, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Lil’ Kraken & Yasu Urano when FUMA pinned Kraken with a German Suplex (12:04).
2. Jacket Match: Fuminori Abe defeated Gouma by Knockout with the Nagabuchi K (24:02).
3. Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Akiyori Takizawa when Shimomura pinned Nakatsu with an Inverted Hurricanrana (17:35).
4. Shigehiro Irie defeated SAGAT with the Beast Bomber (17:10).
5. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (c) defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Oosugi pinned Kamino with a School Boy (18:09).
*V4 for Speed Of Sounds.
It was a lucky result for Speed Of Sounds today. They barely defeated Aijin Tag thanks to a Thrust Kick from Banana Senga to Masato Kamino leading into a School Boy from Tsutomu Oosugi. Senga admitted afterwards that the match was even closer than the one last month and they probably wouldn’t win if they did another rematch. Oosugi cut him off but Takato Nakano’s eyes lit up and he begged for another rematch next month. SOS won’t do it so Nakano told them to hold onto the IRON FIST Tag Titles until Aijin Tag can earn another title shot.
Shigehiro Irie offered to shake SAGAT’s hand after their match but SAGAT refused. Instead he begged Irie for a rematch somewhere down the line. Irie nodded and left the ring.
A “perfect three count” happened when Daiki Shimomura pinned Ryota Nakatsu in their tag match. He pinned him with a 2 count before and today’s three count means Shimomura now has the confidence he needs to beat Nakatsu again when the Union MAX Title is on the line on 28th April.
The Jacket Match between Fuminori Abe and Gouma actually begun during the show opening announcements and continued while the opening tag match was going on. Both matches ended up getting mixed together at points. This was allowed to happen because the Jacket Match had No DQs, No Countouts and could only be won by Knockout. Abe won by knocking out Gouma with the Nagabuchi Kick. Asian Kung Fu Revolution then attacked the both of them because it turns out Abe and Gouma just ruined FUMA’s 12th Anniversary match! Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano came back out to rescue them, leading to a big brawl between everyone in the ring.

DDT “THE WORLD’S BEST ROJO PRO WRESTLING TOURNAMENT ~KING OF STREET WRESTLING~”, 10/04/2022
WRESTLE UNIVERSE
0 Fans
1. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Kanagawa Big Japan Dojo: Abdullah Kobayashi defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Bakachinga Elbow (13:02).
2. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Kanagawa Enoshima Beach: Hikaru Machida defeated Worawutnoi Keatchaiyong by Knockout with the Iai Punch (R3 1:20).
3. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Tokyo Shibuya Kitaya Park: Shunma Katsumata defeated Suzu Suzuki with the Sauna Trance Splash through the Table (17:18).
4. King Of Street Wrestling – Round 1 – Tokyo Shin-Kiba Studio Flamme: Chris Brookes defeated Onryo by Coffin Burial (15:43).
The first King Of Street Wrestling tournament kicked off with four matches in the opening round. Sanshiro Takagi visited the Big Japan dojo for his match against Abdullah Kobayashi. Takagi went looking around for his opponent but found Kosuke Sato instead. He thought Takagi was trespassing but couldn’t stop him from entering the kitchen and looking round the place. Kobayashi finally showed up. He was out grocery shopping and forgot the match was taking place today. To make up for it, Kobayashi offered Takagi a pint glass of raw eggs. Takagi couldn’t drink it while Kobayashi gulped his glass down. He then drank Takagi’s pint for him and the two began their match. It was just as much a tour of a dojo as both wrestlers were looking for weapons. Kobayashi briefly disappeared only to return dressed as Stan Hansen! He chased Takagi outside and Takagi tried to escape on the Dramatic Dream bike. He caught up to him by the river where BJW washes their ring canvas. Kobayashi hit Takagi over the head with a chair, knocking him down onto the canvas. He gave him the Bakachinga Elbow and pinned him right there to advance to the semi-final.
The next match was on a beach where a kickboxer fought a Muay Thai fighter. The kickboxer Hikaru Machida was accompanied by Thanomsak Toba while the Muay Thai fighter Worawutnoi Keatchaiyong had Makoto Oishi cheering him on. Keatchaiyong had the early advantage by clutching onto his opponent in Round 1. Machida broke through his defence in Round 2 with a Sole Butt, causing Keatchaiyong to flee towards a nearby jungle gym. Machida used the gym to swing into Keatchaiyong with a flying kick for more damage. The knockout came in Round 3 when Machida hit Keatchaiyong with the Iai Punch into the water. It was an instant knockout.
The young generation were up next with Shunma Katsumata and Suzu Suzuki fighting each other in Shibuya. Both of them brought weapons out to the public square and weren’t shy about committing violent acts in front of the confused bystanders. They stapled flyers onto each other’s heads, smashed a box of toy blocks to pieces and threw each other into nearby chairs before breaking them over each other’s heads. A ladder was set up next to a table and Katsumata threw Suzuki onto a pile of chairs Death Valley Driver style. He then climbed the ladder and put Suzuki through the table with the Sauna Trance Splash to win the match.
The final match was held in an empty photo studio where Chris Brookes went hunting for the ghost known as Onryo. He entered the venue armed with a proton gun to defend himself with. He was in for a wild ride starting with a masked figure appearing in the balcony to get his attention only for Onryo to attack him from behind. Onryo tried to hang him with a chain but Brookes broke free and attacked him back with the same chain. The two fought up to the rafters where Brookes put Onryo in the Octopus Stretch. Onryo found a cinder block up there and he broke it over Brookes’ stomach. Back down on ground floor, Brookes used a giant fan blowing flower petals to render Onryo’s powder attack useless. Brookes tied Onryo to a wheelchair when suddenly a nearby coffin opened up and Ram Kaichow rose out of it! She gave Brookes a Tornado DDT out of the coffin and began shooting fireworks at him. She freed Onryo but that gave Brookes time to attack her. Onryo dived onto Brookes and fought to throw him into the coffin. He countered the Praying Mantis Bomb with a Back Body Drop onto wooden boards. He then pressed a nearby button and picked up a board rigged to explode! Brookes fought him off, grabbed the board and hit Onryo with the explosion instead. That was enough for Brookes to carry him into the coffin and close it for the knockout victory. Brookes was the winner but he could see through the window lid of the coffin that there was nobody in there! The coffin was empty and the lights began to flash. Brookes ran off as the ghostly figures of Onryo and Kaichow stood behind him and stared.
The King Of Street Wrestling semi-finals will be broadcast on 16th April. Abdullah Kobayashi versus Shunma Katsumata will happen at a bath house in Kanagawa. Chris Brookes versus Hikaru Machida will take place at a campground in Shizuoka.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 10/04/2022
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
107 Fans
1. Miyu Yamashita defeated Kaya Toribami with the Attitude Adjustment (7:03).
2. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Moka Miyamoto with a Chickenwing Lock (11:25).
3. Marika Kobashi & Abdullah Kobayashi defeated SAKI & Antonio Honda when Kobashi pinned Honda with the Bakachinga Elbow Drop (17:29).
3a. Extra Match: Abdullah Kobayashi Vs Marika Kobashi ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).
4. Rika Tatsumi defeated Suzume with the White Dragon Sleeper (13:32).
The latest edition of “TJPW INSPIRATION” presented two matches where one wrestler got to be in the ring with someone who influenced them. In the main event Suzume faced Rika Tatsumi, the woman she aspires to be. She wasn’t able to beat her but Tatsumi was left impressed by her opponent. It was a chance for Suzume to look at herself and see how much she has grown. She is catching up with her seniors but can’t stop because they too are also moving forward. Suzume promised she will continue to fly higher whether it’s as a singles wrestler or in a tag team.
The other big match of the show had Marika Kobashi team up with her favourite pro wrestler, Abdullah Kobayashi. The origin of this story is Kobashi first met Kobayashi back when she was in elementary school. She then became a fan of his in junior high school after seeing him wrestle in a shopping district. In fact, he is one of the reasons why Kobashi took that name for her moniker. Getting the chance to team with him today was a dream come true for her. They won too, beating SAKI & Antonio Honda when the two of them gave Honda the Bakachinga Elbow.
That wasn’t all though. Kobayashi said he wanted to wrestle against Kobashi and challenged her to a match right there and then! However he had a busy evening ahead of him so he only had time for the match to have a 3 minute time limit. The match began with Kobashi threw Dropkicks, Chops and Elbow Strikes but Kobayashi stopped her with a Headbutt. He landed the Bakachinga Elbow but Kobashi kicked out and the match ended in a time limit draw. Kobayashi told her not to forget these feelings after she graduates from pro wrestling. Also she is still young so she can always come back to wrestling in the future. Kobashi thanked him for making her dream come true. She also explained her graduation from Tokyo Joshi Pro does not mean she is retiring from pro wrestling. She is going to grow up and become stronger. She told Kobayashi not to retire while she is gone because she will come back as a cool lady wrestler ready to crush him!
Two other singles matches filled up the small card. Yuka Sakazaki submitted Moka Miyamoto with a Chickenwing Lock. Sakazaki spent the match tying up Miyamoto in other submission holds. Miyamoto had some of her own like the Rashomon and a Sleeper Hold. That Sleeper Hold though was countered into the Chickenwing leading to the finish.
Miyu Yamashita beat Kaya Toribami in a similar match where the veteran put their less experience opponent through a tough challenge. Toribami did avoid the Attitude Adjustment early but the move was successfully pulled off later to finish her off.
The show began with Shoko Nakajima announcing she will be wrestling in London, England for EVE on 23rd April. That means she will not be at the Ryogoku KFC Hall show on the 24th. Nakajima said she wants to travel around the world and England will be the third country she will have wrestled in. Her goal is to make it to 100!
