TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE GIRLS BATTLE 2015 ROUND 3”, 22/03/2015
Tokyo BASEMENT MON☆STAR
150 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Erin defeated MIZUHO with the Grilled Dumpling Lock (5:55).
2. Nonoko & Akane Miura defeated Chikage Kiba & Yuka Sakazaki when Miura submitted Sakazaki after the Welcome Oppai (11:28).
3. Shoko Nakajima defeated Hyper Misao with the Northern Lights Suplex (6:10).
4. Saki Akai & Ai Shimizu defeated Miyu Yamashita & KANNA when Akai pinned KANNA with the Rookie Award (9:34).

Miyu Yamashita opened the show by telling the audience she turned 20 years old on 17th March. She thanked the fans for their support as she turns into an adult. Saki Akai interrupted her speech and called her a 20 year old pelican. She then revealed the name of her new unit, Biishiki-gun (美威獅鬼軍 – I think the translated name is along the lines of Beauty Demon Army). Their entrance song is “The Rose Scatters Beautifully”, the theme song of The Rose Of Versailles anime. Biishiki-gun’s first match was a success, Akai pinned KANNA while Ai Shimizu kept Yamashita at bay. However Bust Deluxe made their presence felt after the match and after a lot of insults between the two sides a tag match was booked for the 18th April.

While Akai is developing a grudge with Yamashita, she did have nice things to say about KANNA. Akai complimented KANNA’s Spear and said she will become stronger while Akai herself will become more beautiful. Noticing this was just an attempt to recruit KANNA, Yamashita chased Akai away. KANNA told Yamashita she does not want to hide behind her shadow and challenged her to a match on the next show. Yamashita accepted and said she wants the two of them to work hard to defeat Biishiki-gun.

Hyper Masao was convinced she wasn’t wrestling Shoko Nakajima. She believed Nakajima was replaced by a demon in disguise called Monster Nakagon.

Bust Deluxe now has a tag team finisher called the Welcome Oppai. Akane Miura lifts the victim up into the Canadian Backbreaker then smothers their face into Nonoko’s chest. Earlier in the match Yuka Sakazaki used a donut on a string to hypnotize Nonoko. Nonoko then ate it.

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Kota Ibushi (c) defeated Yoshihiko with the Phoenix Splash (18:56).
*V1 for Kota Ibushi.

DDT returned to Kasukabe Hall to celebrate their one year anniversary of running shows in the venue. The main event was a rematch of one of DDT’s most infamous KO-D Openweight Title matches in recent memory. Kota Ibushi defended his championship against Yoshihiko in their first singles match since 2009. The challenger had been very aggressive to Ibushi in the build up to the match. Here it refused to shake hands before the match began. It also wrestled in a T-shirt which makes me wonder if Yoshihiko was in bad shape today. Yoshihiko did what it could to Ibushi. Piledrivers, Dangerous Back Drops, Brainbusters, Dragon Suplexes. It even countered Ibushi’s Phoenix Plex into a Hurricanrana! All this did was build up Ibushi’s meter and the champion unleashed a devastating top rope Power Bomb Driver followed by the Swan Dive German Suplex! Ibushi then hit the Phoenix Splash and it was the end for Yoshihiko’s title chances. Both fighters were wiped out after the match but Ibushi grabbed Yoshihiko’s hand and showed his respect. Ibushi was told his next defence will be on 29th April against the winner of the Battle Royal section of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere match. He also has an IWGP Heavyweight Title match against AJ Styles before then. Ibushi said he hopes to defend his title and that the next time he is in Saitama he will be a double champion!

What is up with the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles? The list of short title reigns continue after Team Drift lost the belts back to Shuten-dōji in their first defence. Shigehiro Irie asked for a rematch. Masa Takanashi said no but KUDO & Yukio Sakaguchi said yes, so another match is on the way.

An 8-Man Tag Team Elimination Match was sponsored by Television Saitama Co., Ltd, or Teletama for short. DJ Nira got a taste of success when he eliminated MIKAMI with a Rocket Punch that sent MIKAMI out of the ring. However Nira eliminated himself seconds later when he somehow slipped while climbing to the top rope and fell to the floor. Konosuke Takeshita and Antonio Honda both wore headgear in the shape of Teletama’s mascot and together danced to Teletama’s theme song to power up and win the match. Their prize is they will soon get to produce a video of themselves singing the theme song for Teletama.

I guess due to legal reasons DDT censors the name of Kazuki Hirata’s theme song in its show report. It is instead written as “●O●●O ●O!” while the Battle-News website writes it as “T●KY●,G●!”

Saki Akai is starting to show some growth in her wrestling career. In her pre-match video she admitted she was originally only going to wrestle for one year but has since become determined to regain the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Aja Kong. And she wants to do it as a DDT wrestler rather than as a guest celebrity. Unfortunately she still has a lot of work to do as Kong was still too much of a challenge for her to overcome. Kong complained about a lack of strong challengers to fight until Gota Ihashi suddenly ambushed her with his King Of Dark Title belt. Akai surprisingly defended Kong and stopped Ihashi with a High Kick. Kong knocked out Ihashi with the Uraken and despite being annoyed by what just happened, thanked Akai for helping. Kong then granted Akai a future rematch for the Iron Man Title.

Danshoku Dino is continuing his latest mission: to turn every town he visits into a “Gay Town”! It begun with Fukushima and today Saitama was his target. Sugaru Miyatake wanted to stop him but couldn’t after falling foul to the Gotch-Style Danshoku Driver.

The DDT Extreme Champion was not in attendance but he did leave a message for Akito about their title match next week. X wants to wrestle in a Total Count Match. It is a ten minute Ironman match and a point is scored for every second you pin your opponent. If there is a tie at the end then it will be sudden death with one more point needed to win.

Kazusada Higuchi & Kouki Iwasaki both qualify for the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Battle Royal on 29th March.

A Road Wrestling match will be held in Izuguranparu Park, Saitama on 15th April. The match is Sanshiro Takagi & Jun Kasai Vs Gota Ihashi & Suguru Miyatake Vs Danshoku Dino & Saki Akai Vs Kota Ibushi & Daisuke Sasaki.

6. Gorgeous Matsuno, Antonio Honda, Konosuke Takeshita & Tetsuya Endo defeated KUDO, Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Endo pinned Matsunaga with the Sky Twister Press (18:53).

A moment of silence was held at the beginning of the show in tribute to the victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake.

In the pre-match video of the main event, Gorgeous Matsuno sang a song about how alcohol is bad. This angered the Shuten-dōji team. During their interview Yukio Sakaguchi swore he would strangle Matsuno and Tomomitsu Matsunaga said he was going to crush his throat. Luckily Matsuno was teaming with Happy Motels and together they were victorious. After the match Matsuno asked his teammates how old they were. Konosuke Takeshita said 19, Tetsuya Endo said 23 and Antonio Honda said 12. Matsuno noted he will be 54 in April and he will continue to work hard inside the ring.

Danshoku Dino said he wanted Fukushima to be turned into a gay town. Sanshiro Takagi objected and said he wanted it to become a nudist town for Suguru Miyatake instead. That was the story of Match #4.

Matsuno’s partner, the “Fukushima Diva” Junko Tashiro performed a song during the show. She also sang a duet with Matsuno at the end.

2. Ganbare☆Wrestling Offer Match: Ken Ohka defeated Tiger Bedscene with the Spear Of Flame (8:46).

B-boys Brother Mon & Brother Tommy returned with their YaroZ event in Shin-kiba to go against the BOYZ show happening at the same time in Shinjuku. While BOYZ is exclusively for women, the audience at the YaroZ show was exclusively men. The YaroZ Vs BOYZ dynamic was further pushed with a Bastards Vs Pretty Boys main event. The attendance number for the show proves the plan didn’t work. BOYZ outdrew them by over triple.

Sanshiro Takagi and Hiroshi Fukuda traded insults at the start of the show. Takagi got so angry he wanted the main event 6-Man Tag to be an Audience Lumberjack match and any item the fans gave them could be used as weapons. The fans got a chance to be even more involved when Takagi invited them to be involved in the Train Attack on Fukuda. Even the Samurai! TV cameraman got involved! Shigehiro Irie finished the job with the Beast Bomber and the crowd yelled “Go Home!” at the defeated pretty boy team.

The Bed-In Girls Mai Chusonji and Kaori Masukoji were involved with the Suguru Miyatake Vs Takayuki Ueki match. The women took sides and acted as managers while the wrestlers were not allowed to touch them. The women slowly took off their clothes during the match until they were down to their bra and panties. Hirata and Ueki spent more time fighting their urges than fighting each other as the women did their striptease. The temptation eventually proved too much and on seperate occassions both wrestlers tried to grope the girls. The lights dimmed and the girls stripped Miyatake of his wrestling tights, leaving him with a fan to cover his modesty. Ueki then pulled out a handgun and threatened to arrest Miyatake for his obscene display. The match was declared a no contest.

Gota Ihashi channelled the spirit of UWF for his match against Ryuichi Sekine. Fat lot of use that was for him. Sekine outstruck him and made him tap to the Combine.

Shuten-dōji’s reign as KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions was quickly cut short in Osaka today. Team Dream Futures beat them in their first defence of the titles to become 4 time champions. Yukio Sakaguchi immediately called for a rematch. Amon Tsurumi decided that a rematch for the belts will happen in Kasukabe Hall on 21st March.

Yoshihiko interfered in Match #4 and attacked Kota Ibushi again! Yoshihiko jumped on Ibushi and gave him a Hurricanrana followed by a Dragon Suplex. With Ibushi out of the picture Tetsuya Endo went ahead and pinned Suguru Miyatake with the Sky Twister Press. Yoshihiko simply stood on the apron and stared at Ibushi.

*V1 for FUMA.

Isami Kodaka was not 100% going into the main event against his former friend FUMA. Kodaka had medical tape going from his neck down to his back. FUMA wasted no time targeting it and also had the help of Kazushi Miyamoto & SAGAT in his corner. Kodaka wiped those two out with a dive but missed the Diving Double Knee Drop. FUMA capitalised and hit a Deadlift German Suplex, Tombstone Piledriver and then the Diving Headbutt to win his first defence of the Union MAX Title. FUMA told Kodaka “cheers for the hard work” after the match and crowned himself the ace of Union. FUMA then nominated Shuji Ishikawa as his next challenger for the 29/4 Korakuen Hall show.

Mio Shirai and Cherry threw a bunch of insults at each other as they wrestled. Cherry eventually got the better of Shirai and became a two time Fly To Everywhere Champion.

Kazushi Miyamoto & SAGAT wrapped a chain around Daichi Kazato’s neck after their tag match and hung him over the ropes. Isami Kodaka came to the rescue.

They played the FIFA anthem before Match #2.

Akai called Nonoko and Yamashita “Pig-san and Pelican”. She criticised Tokyo Joshi for having low quality beauty among their girls. Shimizu agreed, saying “It is as you say, Saki-sama” whenever Akai was done speaking. Yamashita challenged Akai to a match at the next show.

In the afternoon show Goro Jr. surprised everyone with a victory over Seiya Morohashi in the first round and then a hard fought contest against FUMA in the second round. Goro failed to beat the Union MAX Champion but after the match asked for the microphone. He said up until now he was Goro Jr. but from now on he wants to fight as himself. Goro unmasked and was revealed to be Yuuya Kubo, the DDT cameraman who got involved in the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title match at “SAITAMA SUPER DDT 2015”! After the reveal Naomi Susan invited Yumakoto to continue wrestling for Union.

Kazushi Miyamoto appeared at ringside for the second round match between SAGAT and Hiroshi Fukuda. He offered a handshake to Fukuda before the match but it was rejected. When the referee was knocked out during the match Miyamoto attacked Fukuda and told SAGAT to capitalise. Fukuda somehow recovered and pinned SAGAT with a School Boy. Miyamoto revealed after the match that he and SAGAT have been hired to create a new kingdom in Union and the mastermind would be revealed soon.

Elsewhere in the early rounds Hiroshi Fukuda beat Ryu Gouma in the battle between tambourines and statute books, Shuji Ishikawa had no problem giving Cherry the Splash Mountain and Isami Kodaka pulled out the Ocean Cyclone Suplex to beat Mio Shirai.

In the second semi final SAGAT & Kazushi Miyamoto returned to help FUMA beat Shuji Ishikawa! FUMA was revealed to be their mastermind! The trio attacked Ishikawa with a chair and FUMA finished him off with the Jawbreaker kick.

So the final was between Kodaka and the newly turned heel FUMA. The Union MAX Champ had SAGAT & Miyamoto in his corner while Kodaka had Ishikawa & Daichi Kazato by his side. The match descended into chaos when FUMA’s henchmen interfered only for Kodaka’s allies to come to the rescue. When they were all taken out of the picture Kodaka tried to beat FUMA with a German Suplex. FUMA then countered a Leg Lariat into the Jawbreaker and then hit the Diving Headbutt to win the match and the tournament.

FUMA declared himself the undisputed ace of Union for being the champion, winning the tournament and beating Union’s best wrestlers in the process. He declined his prize of choosing what match to have on 29th April. Instead he challenged Kodaka to a match in Osaka on 1st March. FUMA then named another wrestler who is part of his new unit, MEN’S Teioh! FUMA declares he will change the history of Union Pro and his new group is the centre of the company!

Seiya Morohashi got a measure of payback on Yuuya Kubo when he submitted him to win the losers Battle Royal.
