*V1 for Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi.

We’re less than a month away from “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” and the entire lineup has fallen into place after today’s show. First up there was the matter of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match to deal with. It was another chance for Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki to fight each other but other parties was at play too. Kaisei Takechi wanted to test himself against Suzuki so he can experience the thrill of that first hand. Suzuki definitely made sure it was an experience hat Takechi isn’t going to forget anytime soon. HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku were both willing to team with Suzuki since it was a good shot at both of them winning a championship again. Takechi had To-y helping out when he could and he was even able to hold Suzuki back while Ueno pinned Koroku with the WR for a successful title defence.

Suzuki shrugged off the loss and pointed out that Ueno couldn’t beat him today. The one who is going to hold the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title together at the same time first will be Minoru Suzuki! Ueno talked back and said he will beat the “King Of Pro Wrestling” because he is the “King Of DDT“! Suzuki then reintroduced himself to DDT’s “King” and the two grabbed each other by the neck before shoving each other away. When Suzuki left, Takechi talked about his upcoming Sumo Hall tag match where he will team with Konosuke Takeshita. The other team hasn’t been announced yet but Takechi heard that Takeshita wants Kazusada Higuchi to be one of the opponents. Takechi wants to nominate a wrestler too. He wants to fight one of his opponents from his debut match, Takeshi Masada! The request was accepted and the tag match will be Takeshita & Takechi versus Higuchi & Masada.

The challenges are only ramping up higher for The Apex. Today they had to defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles against the Harimao pair of Higuchi & Yuki Ishida. The latter was no problem for Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya to handle but Higuchi remained a regular presence in the match to keep it difficult for the champions. Ishida got to give Naya a taste of their own medicine and throw him around with a Superplex. But one Dosuoki Splash after the other from Higuchi and then Ishida wasn’t enough to win. Iino used the Spear on Higuchi to get rid of him while Ishida couldn’t get the victory with the Ensho or the Dosukoi Clutch. Instead Naya cut him off with a Knee Lift and used The World’s Best Back Drop to put the spirited underdog away.

Naya said Ishida thinks of himself as pathetic and embarrassing but after the match they just had, nobody will think that of him now. Naya had a senior that pulled him out of being hopeless and helped turn him into the wrestler he is today. He reminded Ishida that he has many supporting seniors around him and he is a strong DDT wrestler. The two shook hands over it before The Apex turned their attention to their next title defence. They suddenly received a video message from Team 200kg asking for a title shot! Iino went looking around Korakuen Hall to see if Chihiro Hashimoto was really in the venue but neither she nor Yuu were there. Naya reminded everyone that Hashimoto has singles match wins against Iino so of course Iino would have unfinished business with her. Suddenly the Strange Love Connection then entered the ring. MAO revealed he’s had a secret plan up until now to bulk up and weigh over 100kg so he can beat either The Apex or Harimao for the tag titles. Since KANON now weighs 103kg that means SLC can be called Team 200kg too but Iino now has Hashimoto on his mind so the secret plan has been ruined. Hisaya Imabayashi came up with a solution. The KO-D Tag Titles will be on the line at Sumo Hall in a Survival 3 Way between The Apex, SLC and Team 200kg!

Kazuki Hirata had to rely on all of his wits and luck to just have a chance at beating Shinya Aoki. Instead it went beyond that. Hirata first asked for the match to have special rules including joint locks being banned and Aoki needing a 10 count pin to win. Aoki refused and got the match to start normally. Hirata left the ring when the going got tough and used the ringside attendants Rukiya and Hinata Kasai as shields when Aoki did a Topé Suicida onto them. Aoki seemed to lose him temper and threw everyone including the referee into the front row before attacking them all with chairs. Imabayashi tried to stop Aoki but the fighter then grabbed him in a Sleeper Hold and dragged him around ringside. Back in the ring Rukiya and Kasai tried to help Hirata but Aoki quickly regained momentum. That was until Imabayashi reappeared and grabbed Aoki from the top rope! Hirata & Imabayashi worked together but Aoki again took back control. However Hirata kicked out of the European Clutch, Imabayashi gave him the Stunner and Hirata applied the Miracle One Shot Cradle. Aoki briefly reversed it but it was reversed back resulting in an upset victory for Hirata! Their actions unexpectedly earned them Aoki’s respect and Imabayashi was carried out of the arena on top of Hirata and Aoki’s shoulders while the Pride FC victory theme played. Backstage Hirata said that maybe with this new bond he, Aoki & Imabayashi might one day challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles. Aoki was told a friendship was born but he joked it will break soon. He doesn’t understand how he has all of a sudden drifted away from the KO-D Title scene like this.

Match #4 was changed from an 8-Man Tag to a 6-Man Tag because Ilusion was feeling unwell and couldn’t wrestle. SLC welcomed back Kumadori so they could go fight against DAMNTION T.A together. Daisuke Sasaki tripped Kumadori while he was going for a dive and put him in the Crossface Lock. MAO tried a hot tag but Hideki Okatani attacked him with the bamboo stick to cut him off. KANON came to the rescure by Suplexing MJ Paul so SLC & Kumadori could all do flippy drop moves on top of him. Paul resisted Hurricane Kicks and Lariats until a Cross Lariat/McEnroe combo by SLC finally took him down. MAO then finished him off with the Cannonball 450°. MAO said things are livening up with SLC thanks to KIMIHIRO’s rapping and Kumadori’s dance moves. Pro wrestling is 80% about the entrances anyway. Kumadori hasn’t forgotten about Ilusion though. He advised him to get plenty of rest and sleep so they can wrestle once he’s fully recovered.

The young tag team of Daichi Sato & Rukiya got an upset win over the veterans Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga. Rukiya got Body Slammed to heck and back before getting thrown into the ring post. Sato was put through the meat grinder too with Lariats and a Scorpion Death Lock but Rukiya was able to break him free. Rukiya then Double Dropkicked the other team, allowing Sato to build up momentum with differen kicks to Matsunaga. That kept Matsunaga down long enough for Sato to land the Mad Splash and pin him. Both he and Rukiya gave Akiyama a respectful bow after the match.

The rubber band spot backfired on SCHADENFREUDE International early on in their match when Antonio Honda tripped and hurt his knee while he was walking up the steps. The other team simply let go of the band while he was explaining what happened and the band snapped into him. Fuminori Abe then got permission from a fan sitting in a wheelchair at ringside to push them into Honda while Chris Brookes was chasing Akito around the ring. After the big Gongitsune spot, Brookes twisted Super Sasadango Machine’s mask over his eyes to blind him and then did a Codebreaker/Back Senton combo with Masada. Honda then pinned Sasadango with the Diving Fist Drop for the win.

Kazuma Sumi was moved from Match #4 to the opener because of Ilusion’s absence. Keisuke Ishii was also added to the match to even up the numbers, making him and Soma Takao opponents for the first time in a while. The change gave Sumi and Munetatsu Nakamura an opportunity to show off their agility against each other. Hinata Kasai tried to beat Sumi at his own game with School Boy pins but Sumi fought him off. Kasai then switched to a Backslide Pin and pulled off the move with help from Nakamura’s Super Kick. But Naomi Yoshimura broke the pin. Sumi got back on his feet and used the Tiger Feint Kick to give himself the momentum to swing Kasai into the School Boy for the three count out of nowhere.

A happy and relaxed looking Danshoku Dieno greeted the fans during the show to update everyone on his current status. He recently underwent emergency surgery for appendicitis that removed all of the toxins in his body. His return match will be at Sumo Hall on 3rd November where everyone will see a more beautiful side of him than ever before. He is currently only at 70% fitness but he is using his regular walks with his pet dog Haku to get his conditioning back. At the end of the show it was revealed that Dieno’s return match will be against Daisuke Sasaki! Dieno said backstage that when he was laying in his hospital bed he thought back on some of his past actions and felt embarrassed. He promised this more beautiful side of Dieno will wrestle clean matches from now on. When Sasaki found out about the match announcement it reminded him of the main event they had at “RYOGOKU PETER PAN 2018” where Dieno wrestled the late portion of the match completely naked. Sasaki warned Dieno that DDT is expecting them to deliver a rematch that goes beyond nudity this time! Dieno apparently has no memory of that match (he ended up being locked in a casket after losing and the trauma he suffered had blocked his memory) and doesn’t understand what Sasaki means by going beyond nudity.

The full card for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” was announced at the end of the show. The match order outside of the opening bout and the main event has not been decided on yet.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’25” Results

October 18, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’25”, 18/10/2025

6. First One-On-One ~ Quiz ToJo-naire: Yuki Arai defeated Hyper Misao by correctly answering what Misao’s favorite sushi dish is (11:26).
7. International Princess Title: Arisu Endo (c) defeated Alice Crowley with the Ju no Okite (11:49).
*V1 for Arisu Endo.
8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) defeated Yuna Manase & Toga when Uehara pinned Toga with the Sushi Tornado (14:51).
*V1 for Ober Eats.
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Yuki Aino with the Spinning Tear Drop (17:49).
*V1 for Miu Watanabe.

When Miu Watanabe was crowned the princess of the Summer (the new intro to her song is there to remind you if you forgot), Yuki Aino wanted to prove she can become the princess of the Autumn. Today was her chance to keep her fire burning with a Princess Of Princess Title challenge that pitted power against power. Aino used Shoulder Tackles as well as a Reverse Splash from the ring apron to the outside. Watanabe drove Aino back first into the corner post and went on to work that area with Backbreakers. Aino powered through it to use Side Suplexes including one from the top rope but went back to the Shoulder Tackles one time too many. Watanabe gradually won out that battle and used her new Spinning Tear Drop variation to win the match.

Watanabe said she is sore after her first title defence but it was fun to bump around the ring with Aino. She calls Aino a precious and important member of their generation and she was happy to fight her for the championship. Watanabe then told the fans Tokyo Joshi Pro has more Korakuen Hall shows coming on the horizon and she wants to keep defending the Princess Title on the road to Sumo Hall next March. Her goal is to not just inspire the current TJPW fans but also those who have not seen her or experienced TJPW yet. The next Princess Title defence will be against American wrestler J-Rod on 9th October. She doesn’t know much about her other than she looks really muscular.

There was one time when Yuki Kamifuku and Yuna Manase were tag partners who had challenged for the Princess Tag Team Titles together. Today they found themselves in a similar position but this time Kamifuku was a champion defending against Manase. While that was going on their tag partners were pairing off against each other too. Wakana Uehara and Toga blocked each other from using their finishers until Uehara locked on the Banana Pillow. Manase broke it up but was immediately hit with the Diving Famouser from Kamifuku. Toga fought against Ober Eats by herself and was even able to give Kamifuku the Rock Bottom, but Uehara grabbed her in the Sushi Tornado to successfully defend the titles. After the match Hot Shot turned down handshakes from Ober Eats but it was just so they could hug them instead.

Uehara said backstage that this title run is her way of repaying Kamifuku for everything she’s done for her. Kamifuku said today’s win means she has surpassed Manase but she will still treat her and her mother to a Korean meal in Shin-Okubo. She also came up with a team name for their next opponents HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki. She is calling them Plain Long Hair and she thinks they are completely out of her league. Over on the other end Toga talked about how close Manase and Kamifuku are, close enough to be like sisters. The match they had wants her to challenge for the Princess Tag Titles again and she would like to continue the Hot Shot team in both TJPW and maybe even Ganbare☆Pro. Manase thinks GanPro would be happy to welcome her as a guest. They’ll teach her the way to guarantee victory is to never give up until you win.

Arisu Endo better be careful because she’s starting to trespass into Shoko Nakajima’s territory with her insistence that she is bigger than she looks. Endo wanted to shake Alice Crowley’s hand before their match and was kicked away so her response was to call herself big in front of her bigger challenger. At first that seemed like a mistake because Crowley slammed Endo around and Power Bombed her into the corner. But despite the beating Endo took from repeated Lariats, she ducked under one and stunned Crowley with two Super Kicks before picking her up for the Ju no Okite to win the match. Backstage Endo said the result means she is bigger than “Big Al” but she’s now formed a bond with her two. She would like the two of them to team up on tomorrow’s show in Gunma because it will be Crowley’s last booking of this tour. Crowley admits that “Little Al”/”Big Endo” has a big spirit so if you can’t beat them, join them.

You just know that Hyper Misao had something planned for Yuki Arai in their first singles match together. Her idea was to have a ToJo-naire Quiz! Every time a wrestler scored a two count pin or a rope break they would have to answer a personal question about their opponent to win. The question was presented Who Wants To Be A Millionaire style including the lifelines. Arai was asked what prefecture is Misao’s home of Gotham City in? She said Chiba but was wrong (it’s Ibaraki). Misao was asked how long does Arai wake up before she leaves the house? She said 90 minutes but was wrong (it’s 120 minutes). Misao was also asked to identify lyrics of the SKE48 song “Pareo Wa Emerald” but she got that wrong. Misao remained in control of the match so was given the next question, what is Arai’s zodiac sign? She used her “Phone a Friend” Shoko Nakajima but Nakajima incorrectly answered Scorpio (she’s a Taurus). Arai got to be asked what does Misao always drink before her matches? She used her “Ask The Audience” lifeline and the poll incorrectly chose Yunker (it’s Red Bull). Arai then got asked what Misao’s favorite sushi dish is? Arai admitted she has never gotten to eat with Misao before so she randomly guessed Ikura (salmon roe). She was correct and declared the winner! Arai was happy with the result but her “Phone A Friend” Miyu Yamashita was annoyed she was never called to help. Backstage Misao talked about how lucky Arai is. The other day there was a romance novel that everyone was waiting to order because of a lottery yet Arai told everyone she was able to just go on the website and order it immediately. If Misao knew beforehand that is how lucky Arai is, she would have come up with different rules for the match!

Part of the undercard included a three match series called the LEVEL UP TRIAL that is designed to give TJPW’s younger wrestlers some major experience boosts on the road to “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” next March. Haru Kazashiro was put together with Mizuki, who was wearing a new black costume. She was also slightly more aggressive than usual which got her a warning from Yukinori Matsui. While Kazashiro got some moments to try and win, Mizuki beat her clean with the Cutie Special. Mizuki said she was happy with the match and how Kazashiro put out everything she had against her. Kazashiro is starting to feel like she is lagging behind the other wrestlers from her generation. She wants to get stronger in her own way so that one day she can win a championship.

Nakajima was chosen to be Uta Takami’s opponent in the LEVEL UP TRIAL. Nakajima kept Takami held in Wrist Locks and purposely wrestled her with one hand behind her back for part of the match. She then put Takami in the Paradise Lock and tried to stomp on her as she rolled away. Takami was able to use that predicament to cradle Nakajima for a nearfall but Nakajima got back in control by pulling her stomach first into the turnbuckle’s steel filling. Takami then tried using the Koala Clutch and some cradles to win but instead Nakajima blocked her and kept her pinned down with a European Clutch. Nakajima said Takami’s strength comes from her unpredictability but she still has a long way to go. Takami said she felt refreshed after the match when usually she is disappointed when she loses. She thinks Nakajima used this match to bring out a side of Takami that even Takami didn’t know existed. It has her more motivated to go win the Next Generation Tournament now.

The LEVEL UP TRIAL was a clean sweep for the veterans over the young generation. Shino Suzuki tried to go blow for blow against Miyu Yamashita and fought to keep her in a Sleeper Hold but it was inevitable that she would fall to the Skull Kick. Yamashita said she always finds Suzuki entertaining and has noticed how serious she looks whenever she wrestles. But the lesson to be learned is even when you try your hardest, things do not always work out the way you want them to. But Yamashita thinks Suzuki has the same guts and spirit that she has along with an incredible desire to win. If she can keep that up then Yamashita believes Suzuki will get stronger and even become a dangerous. Suzuki said she will make the most of what she learned today because she will be challenging for the Princess Tag Titles soon. Then next time she faces Yamashita she will definitely beat her!

One day before Mahiro Kiryu can gloriously return home to Gunma as the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion, she had to defend it in a 5 Way match first. Pom Harajuku showed up wearing a full turnbuckle pad over her back and she sat in the corner to disguise herself as a ring post. Not only was it a convincing camouflage, it also meant Harajuku couldn’t be pinned because the turnbuckle pad kept her shoulders off the canvas! Suzume and Kaya Toribami provided the actual wrestling portion of the match going back and forth with each other until Raku found a way to try and pin both at the same time. She then used the same tactic to somehow give all four opponents a Russian Leg Sweep chain at the same time. The ring emptied out to where it was only Kiryu and Harajuku were left. Harajuku took off her turnbuckle pad and tripped Kiryu with it but then tripped over it herself. Kiryu took advantage and jumped on top of her with an Apology style pin to win the match and escape with the belt. Once she was safe and sound, Kiryu knew she can now go home to Gunma tomorrow with peace of mind.

It won’t be until tomorrow when Kira Summer and Chika Nanase face off in a vital Next Generation Tournament match so today they were tag partners instead. Their team up was a successful one as they went on to beat Mifu Ashida & Ren Konatsu. The two shook hands in preparation for tomorrow’s match and left the ring side by side together.

It was announced that TJPW will be holding an extra show at Korakuen Hall on 7th December. The event is a special collaboration with the idol group OCHA NORMA. Many wrestlers in the TJPW locker room are fans of the group while several idols have appeared as special guest commentators at TJPW Korakuen broadcasts in the past. The news also comes out after OCHA NORMA held their first concert at Budokan Hall earlier this week.

FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN!!” Results

October 16, 2025

FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN!!”, 16/10/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
176 Fans (FREEDOMS Supporters: 58 Fans, GanPro Supporters: 118 Fans)

1. Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi defeated Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motojima when Libre pinned Motojima with the Dragon Suplex (11:34).
2. Shuichiro Katsumura defeated GENTARO with the Triple Two 2 Lock (10:22).
3. Violento Jack defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Charro Negro (8:55).
4. Mammoth Sasaki, Daisuke Masaoka & Kenji Fukimoto defeated Keisuke Ishii, Takuya Wada & YuuRI when Sasaki pinned YuuRI with the 29 Years Old (13:17).
5. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase (w/ Nobita) defeated Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura when Manase pinned Sasaki with a Lariat (12:07).
6. Fluorescent Lighttube + Weapon Tag Death Match: Jun Kasai & Tomoya Hirata defeated Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase when Kasai pinned Ohka with the Cross-Arm Stimulation onto the Fluorescent Lighttubes (18:07).

A rivalry between Ganbare☆Pro and FREEDOMS has been brewing for a while now in a bid by both promotions to liven up the indies. The two sides agreed to hold an all out battle at Shin-Kiba 1st RING with the venue split in half for their supporters. GanPro overwhelmingly won the audience battle by drawing 118 of their own fans to the show while FREEDOMS could only draw in 58 fans. Takashi Sasaki’s excuse is most of the FREEDOMS fans were busy with their jobs while the GanPro fanbase have too much time on their hands. When it came to the match results, FREEDOMS ended up on the winners side with four of the six matches going their way. This isn’t the end of the rivalry though. Sasaki wants it to continue until one side completely gives up! Ken Ohka agreed and the two of them will come up with something in the future to keep this “GANDOM” series going.

The main event was chaotic enough with the usage of lighttubes and chairs as weapons but since it was the last match of the show, both sides went all out including the wrestlers at ring side who all joined in on their team’s train attacks. Ohka hit two Flame Spears on Jun Kasai but Tomoya Hirata stabbed him in the head with bamboo skewers. Mizuki Watase tried breaking up pinfalls to keep his team in the match but Ohka was eventually put away with the Cross-Arm Stimulation that smashed him through a bundle of lighttubes. Kasai said the GanPro team inspired him today and he also appreciated how enthusiastic the GanPro fans were too.

GanPro did get a big win in the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase brought along the GanPro staff member Nobita to be their second at ringside. He ended up getting bullied by Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura as they have been doing in the lead up to the show. Sugiura took his glasses and even emptied out a box of glasswear to try and Suplex Nobita onto. However Nobita was saved by the GanPro team and he got revenge by Body Slamming Sugiura onto the pile of glasses. Manase then got the surprise pin on Sasaki with a Lariat to win the match! Imanari said this is what happens when the bullied kid in class ends up training like crazy. He turns into a total killing machine! Meanwhile Sasaki and Manase both threw out the idea of having a singles match against each other to settle their differences. Manase wants the match to happen at Korakuen Hall.

YuuRI wasn’t as successful at her attempt of wrestling against the men. However although she lost Match #4 for her team after being pinned by Mammoth Sasaki, she earned everyone’s respect with her efforts. Sasaki begrudgingly shook her hand and raised it after the match. Things between Jun Masaoka and Keisuke Ishii was a bit more heated with the two of them butting heads before leaving the ring.

There was also respect earned between Violento Jack and Munetatsu Nakamura. Jack thought he was going to be wrestling some young brat but he ended up being impressed by Nakamura’s abilities. The current King Of FREEDOM World Champion used his submission finisher to make Nakamura give up and then gave him a fist bump when the dust had settled.

Shuichiro Katsumura requested GENTARO to be his opponent for the show because he considered the two to have something of a rivalry going on due to their wrestling styles. GENTARO planned on winning by pinfall while Katsumura focused on trying to submit him. It led to Katsumura countering GENTARO’s pinning cradle into a Triangle Choke that then switched into the Nagata Lock 3 for the win.

In the opening match, Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi pulled out a FREEDOMS flag and flaunted it in the ring to celebrate their victory. Igarashi said he could feel the fighting spirit coming from Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motojima so he wanted to overwhelm them with his own strength.

BASARA “BASARA 290 ~UTAGE~” Results

BASARA “BASARA 290 ~UTAGE~”, 15/10/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – B Block Final: Kyu Mogami & Naka Shuma defeated Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA by Disqualification after a Weapon Attack (11:26).
2. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – A Block Final: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato when Kamino pinned Kazato with the Lariat (11:01).
3. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) defeated Isami Kodaka, Lil’ Kraken & Takeru Inoue when Hiroshi pinned Inoue with the Perfect Plex (8:57).

5. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – Final: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Kyu Mogami & Naka Shuma when Nakano pinned Shuma with the Takagari (18:30).

This year’s IRON FIST Tag Tournament winners are Aijin Tag! They got past Shitamachi Rocket in the semi final, mostly because Daichi Kazato’s constant backfiring moves was too much for even Ryota Nakatsu to make up for. Their opponents in the final were the two delinquints from MJ2. They got past Hyakusho Ikki by tricking Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA into using weapons in front of the ref so they would get disqualified. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino were able to defeat Kyu Mogami & Naka Shuma to win the final but they told the fans afterwards that is only half of MJ2 they have beaten. The other half Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda also happen to be the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions so Aijin Tag want to face them next with the belts on the line! Honda was in the corner for Mogami & Shuma during the show. He didn’t say anything but did shake hands with Nakano & Kamino to accept their challenge. The title match will happen on 31st October.

1a. Rematch: Ippanjin Munenori Sawa defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the O-Manjigatame (4:20).
2. Mio Shirai Vs DJ Nira ended in an unclear way due to a blackout (10:33).
3. 3 Way Tag Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated MIKAMI & Jun Masaoka and Shota & Ryoma Tsukamoto when Kei pinned Masaoka after the Gotai Fumanzoku (9:33).
4. Special Tag Match: Gym Trainer Kotoka & Mac Matsushita defeated Fuminori Abe & Bryan Ishizaka when Matsushita pinned Ishizaka with the Uso Splash (10:33).
5. Special Tag Match: Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono when Kamifuku pinned Hanazono after the Suwama Assisted Famouser (15:04).
6. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Shinya Aoki ended in a Time Limit Draw (30:00).

Thirty minutes wasn’t enough to determine a winner between Yuji Nagata and Shinya Aoki. The two of them were both thanked by Sanshiro Takagi afterwards for giving everyone a wonderful match and Nagata in particular confirmed that Takagi was right to make him the ace of Super Japan. Takagi then made a request to Nagata. He will be officially back wrestling again in November and he would like to wrestle Nagata on the final Super Japan show of the year. It will take place on 29th December and Takagi will team with Munenori Sawa while Nagata will get to choose his own partner. That idea brought Kuroshio TOKYO Japan and Fuminori Abe to the ring both volunteering to team with Nagata. Takagi expected something like this would happen so he suddenly brought Jun Kasai into the ring to make this situation a 6-Man Tag Match! Kasai said exciting things can happen when two people with nothing in common get together. However he then pointed out that both he and Nagata do salutes in their matches. Takagi said this match will determine which wrestler’s salute is the real deal!

The tag team of Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku was called Team Shonandai since both of them are from Fujisawa City. They figured they were too powerful for the Up Town team of Kuroshio & Momoka Hanazono to handle. They were proven right. In fact Suwama was so powerful that he ended up making both his opponents and also Kamifuku cry, which led to him apologizing. The other three all kicked him to get some payback but Suwama got back on the same page with Kamifuku to do an Assisted Famouser onto Hanazono for the finish.

Gym Trainer Kotoka lived up to his name by having a full on gym trainer gimmick urging Mac Matsushita to exercise properly. He also held kick training pads and used them to block Fuminori Abe’s kicks before using them as a weapon on both Abe & Bryan Ishizaka.

The match between Mio Shirai and DJ Nira turned into a tragedy. Nira grabbed his umbrella and threatened to use it as a weapon until suddenly he turned it on himself and stabbed his own stomach! The referee check on Nira and when he couldn’t sense any life in him, he too committed seppuku next to the body! Shirai tried to revive the both of them and when she couldn’t, she committed seppeku as well. The lights in the room then switched off. After a few seconds, a lone spotlight shined in the ring showing Antonio Honda wearing a diaper and behaving like a baby being born.

Takagi’s return to the ring is not officially happening until “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” but the opening match was an exhibition bout for him to shake off his ring rust. He lost to Sawa in 28 seconds. The result made one person in the crowd particularly mad. It was the DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi and he was furious to get this match for the money he spent on his ticket! He called Takagi a conman and ordered a rematch to begin despite having no authority in Super Japan. The restart went ahead and Takagi brawled with Sawa around the venue. Takagi sprayed a fire extinguisher that ended up knocking out the referee. Imabayashi got back on the microphone and ordered the timekeeper to pause the stopwatch until the referee regained consciousness. Meanwhile Sawa tricked Takagi to repeatedly run the ropes back and forth until he ran out of energy. Once Takagi was tired, Sawa put him in the O-Manjigatame and held on for the recovered referee to see Takagi tap out. After the match Takagi announced the 29th December booking, calling it the final episode of Super Japan’s first season.

The 29th December show will also reunite MIKAMI and Takashi Sasaki as a DDT Legend Tag Team. Takagi reminded both of them that when they created DDT, NOSAWA Rongai originally suggested they call the company Super Japan but they all rejected it and came up with Dramatic Dream Team instead. This spin-off exists to see what would have happened if they went with Super Japan so Takagi wondered what if MIKAMI & Sasaki were a tag team here instead of being the rivals they were in DDT? Sasaki agreed because he likes the nostalgic vibe that on Super Japan shows that reminds him of old DDT. MIKAMI said there is a drama in their history that fans of today might not understand so he is enthusiastic to see where this idea goes.

Takeshita Becomes The IWGP Champion!

October 13, 2025

NJPW “KING OF PRO-WRESTLING 2025”, 13/10/2025
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
5,372 Fans

9. IWGP World Heavyweight Title: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA defeated Zack Sabre Jr. (c) with the Wagamama (31:16).
*Zack Sabre Jr. fails in V3. KONOSUKE TAKESHITA becomes the 14th IWGP World Heavyweight Champion!

He did it! After winning the G1 Climax during the summer, Konosuke Takeshita has now taken the next step up and has won the IWGP World Heavyweight Title! He went into today’s show having a 1-1 singles record with Zack Sabre Jr. coming out of the G1. Now was the big rubber match with New Japan’s top championship on the line. Sabre tried to break Takeshita down limb by limb and the damage he inflicted prevented Takeshita from capitalizing on some possible comebacks. However he was able to survive being tangled into submission holds and relied on those big impact moves to take their toll on Sabre. With both wrestlers reaching their limit, a spent Takeshita took Sabre’s wind out of his sails with German Suplexes before catching him unaware with a Reverse Hurricanrana. Takeshita then decided to pull down his own kneepad and hit a raw Wagamama knee strike that kept Sabre down for the pin count.

While Takeshita was making a promise to Sabre after the match about protecting the IWGP Title, he noticed the reaction in Sumo Hall to his victory was mixed. Takeshita acknowledged there are New Japan fans who aren’t happy to see him become the champion and is certain some of the wrestlers in the company feel the same way. He called for anyone to come down and challenge him. Hirooki Goto answered the call and entered the ring. Goto said Takeshita knew this would be coming because he wants to win the IWGP Title again. Takeshita was surprised to see Goto because he expected one of the younger NJPW wrestlers to challenge him first. However he has unfinished business with Goto from last year’s G1 tournament and he is not going to start following Goto’s revolution, so he accepts the challenge. Backstage Takeshita told reporters that winning the championship is not his end goal. He wants to defend the championship at the Tokyo Dome but is not taking that position for granted. That’s why he wants his title defence against Goto to take place before “WRESTLE KINGDOM 20”.

———————————————————————–

Can you guess how much I’m beaming with joy right now? I’ve been following this guy’s career since the beginning so to see him go from winning the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title in DDT before his debut to winning the IWGP Title in New Japan just has me feeling delighted right now. But there’s quite a number of NJPW fans out there who aren’t in a celebratory mood over this result like I am. NJPW has had a cold year and Takeshita’s presence when he is there isn’t doing anything to help warm it up. One common complaint are that it’s because he only shows up for the big events and is nowhere to be seen on the tour loops. Another is that Takeshita’s presentation hasn’t caught on with the fans. Try as he might to act like he’s about to be crowned Japan’s next big star, he still comes off as an outsider to the company’s fanbase. An obvious answer to this problem is to lean into that and have Takeshita play the role of the new boss monster for NJPW’s stars to eventually take down. But New Japan themselves haven’t committed to that idea ever since the halfway point of the G1 when Takeshita switched to acting more like a face wanting to unite the wrestling world instead of dominating it all as “The Alpha”.

Takeshita as IWGP Champion is also now the focal point of an issue that is dividing two specific fanbases, the relationship between New Japan and AEW. How far you lean into being a fan of one or the other opens up different paths. For the AEW fan there is fun to be had fantasy booking what happens next with Takeshita in The Don Callis Family, especially since he is currently involved in a slow build storyline with Kazuchika Okada. Both men are now champions and they just so happen to have a chance this upcoming weekend to win the AEW World Tag Team Titles together. They win and that’s a pretty amazing tag team you got there. They lose and we’ll likely get the next chapter in the story where Takeshita gets kicked out of the Family and turns face in AEW.

New Japan fans though do not give a shit about from what I’ve seen of their responses online. They’re sick of seeing their company playing second fiddle in this relationship and they don’t want a repeat of Jon Moxley’s title reign where the champ was absent from a couple of tours in Japan only to take part in a throw away title defence with zero build on AEW TV. I bet tempers will flare even hotter if the brand new IWGP Champion was to immediately take a pinfall loss on PPV less than a week later even if it was all part of an angle to turn (big) babyface. They’re also sick of AEW fans fantasy booking Takeshita Vs Okada for the IWGP Title at the Tokyo Dome. I myself am not expecting that match to happen mainly because Okada has almost completely avoided doing anything New Japan related ever since he jumped ship to AEW. There’s been his appearances at “FORBIDDEN DOOR” this year and last and I think that’s been it.

As for me? I’m soaking in the moment. One of my favorite wrestlers in now a top champion and chances are I’m going to see him defend the belt at the Tokyo Dome this 4th January. That’s my boy!

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD LIEUTENANT 2025” Results

October 13, 2025

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD LIEUTENANT 2025”, 13/10/2025
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
129 Fans

1. Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Sentaro Motojima with the Back-Roll German Suplex (9:15).
2. Ken Ohka & Choun Shiryu defeated Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi when Shiryu pinned Maeguchi with the Baozi (12:00).
3. Mizuki Watase defeated Rukiya with the Bare Elbow (10:50).
4. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Yuna Manase & YuuRI when Imanari pinned Manase with the Lariat (11:47).
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shota Kawakami when Tsukamoto pinned Kawakami with the Zudon (14:40).
*V1 for Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto.
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura ended in a Double Knockout (17:45).
*V1 for Masaaki Mochizuki.

For the first time in the young history of this championship, a Spirit Of Ganbare World Title match ended in a draw. Both Masaaki Mochizuki and Shuichiro Katsumura ended beating each other up to the point where neither of them could answer a ten count from the referee. Mochizuki still had the strength to speak after the match and he admitted Katsumura was better than he expected. He told the rest of the Ganbare☆Pro roster they should be proud of him and then asked if anyone else in the group could handle the kind of match these two old men just had? Ken Ohka praised Katsumura for working so hard and suggested to the others it will be up to them to convince GanPro who should be the next challenger. Katsumura later tweeted that at the age of 49, the last goal he needs to achieve before he turns 50 is to beat Mochizuki!

Ohka also showered praise for Shota Kawakami after his attempt to win the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles with Keisuke Ishii ended in failure. Ohka then decided he will be next to challenge Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto for the belts. When the BASARA team pointed out that would make it a 2-on-1 match, Ohka revealed that his partner will be Choun Shiryu! The match will happen at Shin-Kiba 1st RING on 9th November. The champions claim that place is BASARA’s main venue so they will have the home field advantage. Ohka disagrees because he and Shiryu combined have wrestled three times as many matches there than Nakatsu & Tsukamoto have!

In a few days time GanPro will be facing FREEDOMS in “The Battle Of Shin-Kiba” so wrestlers on the GanPro side fought each other to prepare themselves. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga won against Yuna Manase & YuuRI but the loss only fired up the Ganbare☆Joshi pair even more. Manase asked Imanari after the match to train with her for the next three days before the show takes place. Imanari said GanPro has been around for men and women since the start and it will be better to motivate each other in the ring instead of just talking about it.

The end of the show was suddenly crashed by Toru Sugiura and Tomoya Hirata from FREEDOMS. They came out telling GanPro that their end is coming on 16th October! They also started bullying a GanPro staff member known to everyone at the shows as Nobita. However it turns out that Nobita was originally a trainee in SMASH and also made his pro wrestling debut in 2014 with Asuka Project under the name Takahiro Nakayama until health problems ended his career before it ever got going. Imanari & Manase warned the FREEDOMS side that Nobita is GanPro’s secret weapon in the rivalry and he will be their second at ringside when Imanari & Manase take on Sugiura & Takashi Sasaki.

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2025 ~HIDDEN GEM IN MACHIDA~ BORDERLINE TREASURES”, 12/10/2025
Tokyo Machida Rembrandt Hotel Sango Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ilusion defeated Hinata Kasai with a Modified Dragon Sleeper (8:10).
2. Kazuki Hirata “Second Match Triumphant Return” Series Vol. 2: Jun Akiyama & Naomi Yoshimura defeated Kazuki Hirata & Soma Takao when Yoshimura pinned Hirata with a Short-Range Lariat (10:39).

6. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku when Ueno pinned Koroku with the Jul.2 (19:49).

Things went better for The 37KAMIINA today without Minoru Suzuki around to make their lives miserable. Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku in a preview of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. Koroku in particular became a target for Ueno & To-y both during and after the match. They said Koroku won’t be able to beat The 37KAMIINA if he’s just going to hide behind Suzuki. HARASHIMA however thinks his teamwork with Koroku today was impressive even though they lost. Koroku thinks it would be best if he targets the least experienced wrestler in the title match. He warns Kaisei Takechi that he is coming to take his title belt!

With Yuki Ishida fit and healthy to wrestle again, The Apex and Harimao were able to sign the contract for next week’s KO-D Tag Team Titles match. The challengers spoke first with Kazusada Higuchi reminding The Apex he wants to feel their weight as champions and give it their all. Ishida said there is a frustration building up inside him because Harimao is this unit of strong wrestlers but he has been holding them back. He is going to take those frustrations out on Yukio Naya in particular so Harimao can win the titles and move on up. Naya said he is determined to crush Ishida while Yuki Iino has been training his neck and head every day to combat against Higuchi’s Claw moves. He also disputed Higuchi’s opinion because he is well aware of how important the KO-D Tag Titles are, given that he had already held it once previously. Later on in the show The Apex crushed Ishida in a tag match, prompting Higuchi to give his prone partner a pep talk in the ring.

The hotel created a birthday cake for Jun Akiyama and Takeshi Masada to share with each other since their birthdays both recently happened this month.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN VICTORY IN SHINJUKU VOL. 1”, 12/10/2025
Shinjuku FACE
312 Fans – No Vacancy

2. Next Generation Tournament ’25 – Winners Bracket: Uta Takami defeated Kira Summer with the Koala Clutch (8:14).
3. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Rika Tatsumi & Mifu Ashida when Suzuki submitted Ashida with the Modified Cobra Clutch (10:41).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: International Princess Championship Match Signing Document defeated Mahiro Kiryu (c) by Pinfall (12:05pm).
*International Princess Championship Match Signing Document becomes the 1,775th champion.
4. Miyu Yamashita defeated Mahiro Kiryu by Countout (12:12).
5. Mizuki, Suzume & Yuki Arai defeated Hyper Misao, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Cutie Special (9:55).
6. Shoko Nakajima & Alice Crowley defeated Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Crowley pinned Kazashiro with a Swinging Side Slam (10:04).
7. Yuki Aino, Yuna Manase & Toga defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara when Toga pinned Uehara with the Rock Bottom (16:37).

Things aren’t settled yet between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Aino but the main event saw Hot Shot getting one over on Ober Eats instead. Yuna Manase blocked a Double Flapjack to give Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara a Double Clothesline. Toga was then able to hit Uehara with the Elbow Smash before pinning her with the Rock Bottom. After the match Manase told Toga that she won a match right in the heart of Tokyo Joshi Pro. She also thinks Aino is ready to win the Princess Of Princess Title from Watanabe. Aino agreed and said she couldn’t have asked for a better warm up match. Toga believes the three of them all have the passion to win championships at Korakuen Hall next weekend! It was Kamifuku’s first time wrestling Manase in a while and she said Manase is as big and energetic as ever. Kamifuku tried to be more like Ken Ohka in order to beat her but that plan didn’t work so she is going to file a complaint towards Ganbare☆Pro. Watanabe then asked if Aino’s hot performance today means that “Miuderella’s Castle” has been set on fire? According to her the castle park has a pond in it so she has water needed to extinguish that fire.

Today was Alice Crowley’s first appearance in Japan as part of the build up to her International Princess Title challenge. There was a contract signing at the start of the show and it was apparent just how much taller “Big Al” is than Arisu Endo. The champion decided to stand on a chair to show everyone that she is the bigger Alice. Then later in the show when it was time for their Tag Match, Crowley immediately attacked Endo and they fought each other for most of it. Shoko Nakajima ended up wiping out Endo with a dive while Crowley caught a dive from Haru Kazashiro. Crowley then turned that into a Swinging Side Slam for the three count. She later said the only reason she came to Japan is to take the IP Title from Endo although she does like the welcoming atmosphere of TJPW. Endo also made it clear she doesn’t like being called tiny because she has a big presence!

Mahiro Kiryu was in the fight of her life with the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title on the line. Miyu Yamashita gave her a one-sided beatdown early that made Kiryu rethink her gameplan. She fled out of the ring twice, once getting thrown back in and the other making Yamashita chase her up to the aisle. Up there Kiryu grabbed the folder containing the contract that Endo and Crowley signed earlier in the show and she hit Yamashita with it. Rise Shirai then tried to grab the folder but Kiryu pulled it away and tripped over Yamashita, landing her back with the folder falling on top of her. Fumirin (who wasn’t the ref for this match) then suddenly appeared to count a pinfall and declare the International Princess Championship Match Signing Document as the new champion! Kiryu and Yamashita then fought over the contract until they were reminded of the 20 count. They both ran back to the ring but only Yamashita made it in time while Kiryu was counted out. Kiryu then tried to pin the contract after the match until Yamashita chased her away.

There were more Iron Man Title changes after the show. Shirai placed her binder on top of the contract and left it alone. Fumirin found it and decided to count the pin, declaring Rise Shirai’s Binder as the new champion! Then even later somebody placed a drink on top of the binder and Fumirin again treated it as a pinfall, declaring the Double Vitamin Drink as the new champion. This then led to a battle of endurance as Kiryu grabbed the bottle and attempted to drink it empty as quickly as she could. She finished the drink without interruption and was rewarded with the Iron Man Title again for her knockout effort.

Things are suddenly looking up for Shino Suzuki! She won her tag match today by whipping out a new Modified Cobra Clutch that made Mifu Ashida submit. After the victory Suzuki told HIMAWARI she wants to support their classmates Uehara and Toga while they fight for the Princess Tag Team Titles at Korakuen next week. However she is also frustrated over feeling left out of the title race so she wants to challenge the winners for the belts with HIMAWARI as her partner! HIMAWARI said she feels the same way and took up Suzuki on her offer. She is happy to see how much confidence Suzuki is showing lately.

We now have our first finalist in the Next Generation Tournament as well as the first full elimination. Uta Takami is on a roll with using the Koala Clutch to win matches with Kira Summer becoming the latest victim to the move. Meanwhile Chika Nanase had her first gasp at survival by beating Ren Konatsu to knock her out of the tournament. This now means Summer and Nanase will face each other again with an elimination on the line while Takami waits for the winner in the final. Takami said she will win the tournament and prove that she is beloved by the gods of pro wrestling. Nanase admits she didn’t expect her rematch with Summer to happen this soon. Konatsu felt like she was able to find her own wrestling style during this tournament even though she lost both of her matches. If the tournament is held again next year she wants to enter it, run through every opponent like a typhoon and win it with style.
