8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami when Nakajima pinned Toribami with the Diving Senton (17:15).
It looks like Hyper Misao was on to something. Yesterday she wondered if the key to Kyoraku Kyomei finally winning the Max Heart Tournament was to give up something that is important to her. She gave away her spray can and proceeded to win her 1st Round match. So today she did the same thing and handed a bag filled with her weapons over to Yukinori Matsui to show she would fight fair and square. However this time she hid a small spray can in her costume and used it to blind Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami before the match began. Kyoraku Kyomei then tried to win via countout by tying Hasegawa & Toribami together back to back with Misao’s cloak. The other team were able to get back in the ring and fight back until Shoko Nakajima wiped out Toribami with a Topé Suicida. Misao hit Hasegawa with the Kingslayer followed by the Hypami Returns. Nakajima then finished her off with the Diving Senton to send Kyoraku Kyomei to the semi-finals again. Nakajima said afterwards she thought her team were the overwhelming favorites to win and their ultimate goal now is to crush 121000000. Misao said they’re now reaching a boiling point because it’s their fifth Max Heart Tournament and they still haven’t won it yet. They originally formed Kyoraku Kyomei to have fun tag matches but it’s no fun if they can’t win!
The Love Triangle were pitted against each other with Yuki Aino & Raku’s entry into the tournament. The brackets set them up to go against Pompaler in the 2nd Round. Their game plan was to invite their opponents for a nap in the middle of the ring. It didn’t work because Max The Impaler decided it was better to throw Pom Harajuku at them over and over instead. Raku lured Max away from the ring to chase her up to the balcony and then back down. She also tried to sing Max to sleep with a lullaby but it didn’t work. Harajuku knocked Aino down with the P Attack while Max got their hands on Raku for a Body Slam. Max then picked up Max in a Fireman’s Carry, climbed up the second rope and then Press Slammed her onto Raku. That counted as a pinfall and Harajuku was able to pin Raku for the victory. Harajuku didn’t know what happened other than everytime it looks like Max wants to help her, they throw her around instead. Raku thought the love between her and Aino would have been enough to beat a mismatched pair like Pompaler but she was proven wrong. She is also starting to feel like the only person who isn’t achieving anything. Aino assures her that isn’t true and she was really cool today.
Only one of the teams who received a bye past the 1st Round was able to win their match today. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated their generation classmates Haru Kazashiro & Toga to advance to the final four. Toga was unable to use the Rock Bottom on HIMAWARI. Instead HIMAWARI got her with the Princess Drop and applied the Half Crab Hold until Toga gave up. Suzuki said they left it all in the ring today and that was why they won. HIMAWARI agreed they were more motivated than usual and now they get to fight Kyoraku Kyomei in the semi final. It’s a big wall to climb but Suzuki wants to continue teaming with HIMAWARI forever. Toga is disappointed to have lost but still thinks she and Kazashiro have both grown together as a team. Kazashiro said she is cherishing the present while also thinking about the future so she hopes this won’t be the end of their team. Toga suggested they can go get stronger as individuals and then team up again for next year’s tournament.
Fans were quick to notice that Toyo Mates were not teaming together for this year’s tournament. So wouldn’t you know it they ended up being opponents in the 2nd Round! Mahiro Kiryu went to shake Yuki Kamifuku’s hand before the match began but she was ignored. While Haruna Neko and Wakana Uehara had time to fight, the match came down to Kiryu against Kamifuku. Kiryu gave her the Spinebuster but Uehara broke the pin. Neko gave Uehara the Nekodebreaker to give Kiryu another chance to get the win but Kamifuku fired back with the Famouser to rescue victory from the jaws of defeat. She then shook Kiryu’s hand after the match. When she found out Kiryu & Neko gave themselves the team name Nekonchu she got annoyed by how bad the name is because Kiryu isn’t a catgirl. But Kamifuku has moved on to teaming with Uehara and having a “Ayase Town Hills New Hills” style with her. She told Uehara they will have to beat Pompaler in the semi finals because it is their job.
Jada Stone finished her first tour with Tokyo Joshi Pro with a pinfall win over Suzume! After pinning her with the Spark Stunner, Stone made the signal to her that she wants a shot at the International Princess Title. Stone told reporters that Suzume is one of the reasons she decided to go wrestle in TJPW. It feels like a dream that she is three wins for three in Japan and says “Jada In Japan” can continue on 8th February if Suzume is not a chicken. When Suzume heard about the challenge for 8th February she agreed to have the title match at Korakuen Hall so she can become an even stronger champion.
Rika Tatsumi called herself the God of 3 Way Matches and ordered her two opponents to fight each other so the winner would fight her next. However Arisu Endo and Chika Nanase decided to fight her straight away. Endo later gave Nanase the Ju no Okite and Tatsumi stole the win away from her with a Hip Attack to Endo followed by the Twist Of Fate to Nanase.

DDT “THE FORTUNE BATTLE 2025”, 18/01/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. HARASHIMA, Akito, Yuki Iino & Daichi Sato defeated Daisuke Sasaki, KANON, MJ Paul & Ilusion when HARASHIMA pinned Paul with the Somato (12:57).
2. A Match To Remember Kazuki Hirata ~ Scramble Bunkhouse Glasses Rules: Toru Owashi & Soma Takao defeated Danshoku Dieno & Yuki Ishida when Takao pinned Ishida with the Perfect Driver onto the Glasses (9:35).
3. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura defeated Yukio Naya & Yuya Koroku when Nakamura pinned Koroku with the Modified Crucifix Pin (10:12).
4. Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match: Yuki Ueno defeated A.YAZAWA with a Miracle One Shot Cradle (11:12).
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & To-y (c) defeated Yuni & Kazuma Sumi when MAO pinned Sumi with the Ultra Big Tone (21:09).
*V1 for The 37KAMIINA.
6. Special Tag Match: Shuji Ishikawa & Jun Akiyama defeated Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada when Ishikawa pinned Masada with the Splash Mountain (18:45).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Tetsu Inada defeated Poison Sawada JULIE by Pinfall (7:41 pm).
*Tetsu Inada becomes the 1,708th champion.
Shuji Ishikawa appreciated getting help from Jun Akiyama to beat SCHADENFREUDE International in the main event. Antonio Honda actually distracted the referee so Chris Brookes could attack Ishikawa with a chairshot to the head. However Ishikawa hit back with a Headbutt to Brookes while the chair was still wrapped around his neck. He then went on to pin Takeshi Masada with the Splash Mountain. As much as Ishikawa would like to celebrate the win with some karaoke, he told the fans he will wait until he wins the KO-D Openweight Title on 26th January. Honda motivated Brookes by telling him he can overcome anything, just like how Honda overcame his lovesickness today to make to the venue in time to try and help him.
When MAO recently used AI to predict how a match between himself and Kazuma Sumi would turn out, it said he would win using a mystery move called the Ultra Big Tone. Today MAO figured out what that move is and he successfully used it on Sumi to defend the KO-D Tag Team Titles! The Ultra Big Tone starts off as a Lifting Reverse DDT and flips over into a Sitout Facebuster. This is all done from jumping off the second rope too. He praised Sumi & Yuni for being tough challengers while being so young. He heard the ultimate goal for NωA Jr. is to someday perform as idols at the Tokyo Dome. He will cheer them on to reach that goal because the previous NωA never could. While they go do that, he will try his best to bring DDT back to Budokan Hall! Meanwhile To-y said the match gave him a taste of what to expect from the D GENERATIONS CUP. He will chew up the competition there before going back to defending the KO-D Tag Titles again.
As mentioned earlier, Honda was dealing with a bout of lovesickness throughout the day that delayed him from making the show until the main event. His scheduled match with Yuki Ueno had to change into something else. Ueno was now put into a Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match against his new opponent A.YAZAWA! The two wrestlers danced along to music while fighting and Ueno unexpectedly powered himself up by putting on a pair of Hirata GO! glasses! With these glasses he quickly learned how to do the Miracle One Shot Cradle and he used the move to beat YAZAWA.
Keigo Nakamura really wanted to test himself against Yuya Koroku even when his tag partner Shinya Aoki had Koroku beaten with the Full Nelson Hold. Nakamura called out to him and demanded to be tagged in. Aoki recluctantly agreed. That idea almost backfired when Koroku put Nakamura in the Chickenwing Arm Lock. But Nakamura was able to counter it with a Crucifix Pin to get the three count. Aoki admitted to Nakamura he thought they were going to lose the match after he tagged in Nakamura and he was only able to win by a fluke. Nakamura argued he didn’t make any mistake because they ended up winning instead.
Hirata was certainly missed by the wrestlers today. His absence due to injury made some of them so sad that Hisaya Imabayashi decided to turn one of the matches into a tribute for him. Match #2 was turned into a Bunkhouse Scramble Death Match with a pair of Hirata GO! glasses placed in the middle of the ring for everyone to fight over. However everybody fought while ignoring the glasses which made the GM angry. Soma Takao eventually picked up the glasses but used them to stab Danshoku Dieno in the backside. Soma didn’t want to wear them at that point so he decided instead to give Yuki Ishida the Perfect Driver onto them to win.
After beating DAMNATION T.A in the opening bout, HARASHIMA said backstage he would like to challenge them for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. He’ll need to find two wrestlers to team with first, which shouldn’t be difficult for him.
The show ended with an unexpected appearance from Poison Sawada JULIE. He came to the venue today annoyed that nobody has come to challenge him for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. His annoyance only grew backstage when several DDT wrestlers declined to fight him because they were busy with other things so Sawada went out to ringside at the end of the show. Sanshiro Takagi and Imabayashi both confronted him but he fought them off using his Snake Magic. Then suddenly the voice actor Tetsu Inada pulled out a mirror and deflected the magic back at Sawada, knocking him out into a petrified state. Inada then pinned Sanada to win the Iron Man Title and Imabayashi ushered him away from ringside. Inada told reporters backstage it was always his dream as a child to become a pro wrestler and win a cool looking championship. He understands the terrifying threat that comes with this title and called out for any voice actors? to come challenge him should they ever see him in the studio!
Before the show began, Dieno held a public contract signing for the DDT Extreme Title match against Gorgeous Matsuno on 26th January. Matsuno was not present for the signing but the two had already agreed to the stipulation. It will be a Life’s Sparkle Match where only a 1 Count Pinfall is needed to win.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 5TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 18/01/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
284 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Yuki Aino, Raku & Moka Miyamoto defeated Rika Tatsumi, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Raku submitted Neko with the Front Neck Lock (10:39).
2. Miyu Yamashita & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Yuki Arai & Shino Suzuki when Hasegawa submitted Suzuki with the Muffler Hold (8:28).
3. Jada Stone & Kaya Toribami defeated Mizuki & HIMAWARI when Stone pinned HIMAWARI with the Spark Stunner (11:01).
4. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Haru Kazashiro & Toga defeated Ivy Steele & Kira Summer when Kazashiro pinned Summer with the Fisherman Suplex (9:02).
5. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Mifu Ashida & Chika Nanase when Misao submitted Nanase with the Chickenwing Face Lock (11:25).
6. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Max pinned Takami with the Piledriver (9:17).
7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Suzume & Arisu Endo when Uehara submitted Endo with the Banana Pillow (11:48).
In a shocking start to the Max Heart Tournament, last year’s winners Daisy Monkey are out in the 1st Round! Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara sounds like a makeshift team on the surface but it’s a pairing Uehara has wanted after fighting Kamifuku in America last year. Her idea is already paying off with an upset win over one of the tournament favorites. Kamifuku dealt with Suzume by giving her a Big Boot while Uehara trapped Arisu Endo in the Banana Pillow until Endo tapped out. Kamifuku always heard the women from Ebina, Kanagawa were strong and stubborn. Today she saw it with her own eyes from Uehara’s performance. Uehara thought they were unlucky to draw last year’s winners but she’s really happy her team was able to win. Kamifuku is confident they will make it past the 2nd round tomorrow because their opponents Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko are both weaklings.
Well, Max The Impaler killed a teenager. Or at the very least cut down her height by a few centimetres. Uta Takami was scared to fight them but pulled up the courage to do so. As much as Miu Watanabe encouraged her to fight Max head on she eventually saw sense to join in and help her out. Max meanwhile continued to use Pom Harajuku as a projectile against the other team. They took out Watanabe with the Wasteland War Justice and Max then pinned Takami with a Piledriver. They then took one of Takami’s hair accessories as a trophy for their victory. Watanabe blamed Sayrui Namba for putting this match together with her lottery draw. She also said one day Takami will become bigger and more powerful than Max so she should do her best to get there. Tomorrow Pompaler will face Yuki Aino & Raku which means Max is going to be thrown into the Love Triangle.
As the only remaining team left to have competed in every Max Heart Tournament, Kyoraku Kyomei began their match telling everyone that means they have suffered more in the competition than anyone else. They will not drop their guard down or take any opponent lightly. However Hyper Misao thinks the key for them to finally win the tournament is to give up something important to her. She handed her spray can to Daisuke Kiso and promised not to use it so she can win fair and square. Kyoraku Kyomei lived up to their word by beating Mifu Ashida & Chika Nanase clean. Shoko Nakajima held Ashida in the Unmanned Local Train Hold while Misao made Nanase submit to her Chickenwing Face Lock. Tomorrow they will take on Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami to continue their long quest to finally end this struggle. Ashida meanwhile said the match felt like she was baptised by Tokyo Joshi Pro. She’s still a rookie but thinks she has the guts and competitive spirit to match those two veterans.
The opening match of the tournament pitted the two finalists from last year’s Next Generation Tournament against an alliance between British and Austalian wrestlers. Haru Kazashiro & Toga showed how well they had become as a team by swapping wristbands with each other. They were also able to outmanoeuvre Ivy Steele & Kira Summer with their tactics, ending with Kazashiro beating Summer with the Fisherman Suplex. Next up for the pair is HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki in the 2nd Round tomorrow. Toga remembers she beat HIMAWARI in the Next Gen Tournament but also lost to Suzuki at the end of last year. She’s confident her team has an 80% chance of winning. Kazashiro wants to show her next opponents just how strong she has gotten lately. Summer is disappointed she won’t be getting to team more with Steele in the tournament. Steele described getting hit by Toga’s Elbow Smash was like getting hit with a bat.
It was confirmed during the show opening introductions that the winners of the Max Heart Tournament will receive a Princess Tag Team Titles shot at “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” on 16th March. It will be the next Tag Title bout after the 121000000 Vs Pandora & Sara Phoenix match happening in Chile on 9th February.

186 Fans
1. Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Shota Kawakami with a Dropkick (9:08).
2. Shigehiro Irie, Rekka & Moeka Haruhi defeated Hartley Jackson, Choun-Shiryu & HARUKAZE when Haruhi submitted HARUKAZE with the 79.5MHz. 2.0 (12:27).
3. Fuminori Abe defeated Tyson Maeguchi with a Cradle (10:50).
4. Kitsune World Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Yuna Manase defeated YuuRI with the Lariat (10:48).
5. Shinichiro Tomingaga Return Match: Keisuke Ishii, Shinichiro Tominaga & Daisuke®️ defeated Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada when Tominaga pinned Ohka with an Inside Cradle (14:25).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) defeated Yasu Urano with the Crossface Lock (19:39).
*V1 for Yumehito Imanari.
6a. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title – Emergency Match: Yumehito Imanari (c) defeated Yasu Urano with the Lariat (8:05).
*V2 for Yumehito Imanari.
In the weeks coming up to this show Yumehito Imanari not only wanted a match with Yasu Urano to get revenge for losing to him via Headlock years ago, he also wanted to put the Spirit Of Ganbare Title on the line. After a hard fought fight, Imanari countered a Tombstone into a roll up for a nearfall and then grabbed Urano into a Crossface Lock to get the win. Imanari then told Urano he would be happy to give him a rematch sometime with the title again on the line. Urano told Imanari he is worthy of being the champion for a company as wonderful as Ganbare☆Pro but if he is serious about the rematch then they can have one right away!
After hearing the crowd respond positively to the idea, Imanari convinced Michiyoshi Mishima to grant them an immediate rematch starting right away! The rematch was given a 15 minute time limit but Imanari only needed eight to beat Urano again this time with a Lariat. Imanari said afterwards he has kicked out of injustices so many times in life that nothing is too unreasonable for him. He can give Urano another rematch but this time they should wait about six months from now. His message to the fans is when he gets treated unfairly he should stand up every time because injustice makes him stronger!
Yuna Manase has won her chance to win the Kitsune World Title back from MICHIKO after beating YuuRI in a No. 1 Contender’s match. While Manase was happy to see YuuRI want to get the title shot, Manase wants to win the belt back even more. She said it would have been the end of her wrestling career if she handed the chance over to YuuRI. There was no handshake after the match and Manase thinks it is because YuuRI was thinking about beating her just as much as she thinks about the championship. Manase will get her title rematch against MICHIKO at the Ganbare☆Joshi x Kitsune show on 28th January.

DDT “NEW YEAR’S☆DOTABA FESTIVAL 2025”, 13/01/2025
Osaka City Oyodo Community Center
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Yasutaka Oosera & Yuya Koroku defeated Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida when Koroku submitted Ishida with the Chickenwing Arm Lock (11:35).
2. Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated Carnatux with a School Boy (5:13).
3. KANON, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated To-y, Toru Owashi & Kazuma Sumi when Ilusion pinned Sumi with the Swanton Bomb (10:00).
4. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & Yuki Iino defeated Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada when Iino pinned Masada with the BURNING Elbow Drop (13:19).
5. Special Single Match ~ Admiral-Lord Mountevans Rules: Chris Brookes defeated Akito by Disqualification (R3 2:30).
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Yuki Ueno & MAO defeated Daisuke Sasaki & Demus when Ueno pinned Demus with the Jul.2 (18:53).
Today was Demus’s last match of this tour and it turns out he will be missed by more than just his allies in DAMNATION T.A. When the match was over Demus said his goodbyes to the audience in Japanese but was stopped by Yuki Ueno from leaving the ring. Ueno told him whenever he meets somebody as amazing as Demus, it makes him want to go out into the world.
Akito felt his match with Chris Brookes needed a special rule to make up for the fact it was a non-title bout. Since Brookes is from England, Akito decided the match would be held under Admiral-Lord Mountevans Rules. The main rule is a wrestler would be disqualified if they get caught fouling their opponent three times. The fouls included minor offences such as holding onto a rope break for too long or jumping off the turnbuckles. Daisuke Kiso was briefly knocked out which caused the wrestlers to ignore the rules for a bit. Brookes placed Akito on the top turnbuckle but Akito stopped him from doing any top rope moves. When Kiso regained consciousness he saw Akito on the top rope, assumed he was about to do a jumping attack and disqualified him for what turned out to be his third foul.
For religious reasons Match #2 was held under No Sexual Rules. That meant Danshoku Dieno was not allowed to use any of his lewd wrestling moves against Carnatux. However he figured out a loophole. Attacks to the backside were banned but attacks using your own backside against the opponent were legal. Dieno went for the Lip Lock anyway but missed and got Yukinori Matsui by mistake. Carnatux had Dieno beaten after that but Matsui was in no state to count the pin. When Carnatux went to revive him, Dieno gave him a Low Blow and got the 3 Count with a School Boy.
HARASHIMA missed this show too because of his fever. There was a slight change to the card and Yasutaka Oosera from Michinoku Pro was booked to take part in the opening match.

DDT “OTOSHI-NAGE 2025”, 12/01/2025
Osaka Yodogawa Community Center
??? Fans
1. Toru Owashi defeated Yuki Ishida with Choke Slam (8:15).
2. KANON defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Sleepy Hollow (8:45).
3. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated Akito, Kohei Kinoshita & Yuya Koroku when Sasaki submitted Koroku with the Crossface Lock (10:45).
4. Special Single Match: Demus defeated Antonio Honda with an Inside Cradle (12:10).
5. Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y defeated Jun Akiyama, Yuki Iino & Keigo Nakamura when To-y pinned Nakamura with the Kojima Impact (13:49).
6. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada defeated Danshoku Dieno & Yukio Naya when Brookes pinned Dieno with the Danshoku Praying Mantis Bomb (21:10).
HARASHIMA was pulled from today’s show on short notice due to a fever so Yukio Naya replaced him in the main event. This gave Chris Brookes a chance to experiment his game plan against Shuji Ishikawa by wrestling the similarly sized Naya in his place. He and Takeshi Masada took Naya out of the ring, taped him to a nearby cart and wheeled him into an empty storage room beneath the stage. Naya was able to free himself and return to the match but Brookes went on to beat Danshoku Dieno. He used a Danshoku version of the Praying Mantis Bomb to pin him. During the match Brookes was tricked into giving Masada the Lip Lock. After the match he complained about Masada’s breath and asked him what he ate today?
As the D GENERATIONS CUP draws nearer, To-y looks to be gaining the most momentum going into it. He pinned Keigo Nakamura in what could be a potential preview of the tournament final if things go both their ways. To-y used this victory to declare that when he wins the tournament, he will go on to win the KO-D Openweight Title. Then DDT will become Dramatic Dream Toy! MAO ended up getting confused at the start of this match because he couldn’t tell if the “Yuki” chants were for Yuki Ueno or Yuki Iino.
The language barrier got in the way between Antonio Honda and Demus. Honda struggled to get his Gongitsune joke going but Demus surprised everyone by singing the Miyuki Nakajima song “Tapestry” in response.
Kohei Kinoshita was called in at the last minute to take Naya’s place in Match #3.

Okayama Mirai Hall
295 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Mifu Ashida defeated Chika Nanase with a German Suplex (5:47).
2. Ivy Steele & Kira Summer defeated Arisu Endo & Shino Suzuki when Summer pinned Suzuki with the Samoan Drop (7:44).
3. Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko when Raku pinned Neko with the Doctor Yellow (7:47).
4. Kaya Toribami & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Suzume & Toga when Hasegawa pinned Toga with the Diving Double Knee Attack (8:05).
5. Maki Itoh, Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto defeated Miu Watanabe, Jada Stone & Uta Takami when Itoh submitted Takamai with the Itoh Deluxe (11:27).
6. Rika Tatsumi defeated HIMAWARI with the Twist Of Fate (9:47).
7. Mizuki, Miyu Yamashita & Wakana Uehara defeated Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro when Mizuki pinned Aino with the Cutie Special (16:04).
It wasn’t a very happy return for Yuki Aino to her home town. She dropped the fall in the main event to Mizuki. Aino’s team is nicknamed the Tokyo Joshi Tokusatsu Club so she had an idea to stack up with Shoko Nakajima & Haru Kazashiro Megazord style. However Kazashiro wanted to be the base like Nodoka Tenma used to and she wasn’t strong enough to carry Aino & Nakajima on her shoulders. The trio were able to recover with Nakajima giving Miyu Yamashita the Northern Lights Suplex while Kazashiro gave Wakana Uehara the Fisherman Suplex. However Mizuki fought back against Aino, gave her the Run Up Foot Stomp and then won with the Cutie Special.
Mizuki congratulated Aino on her hometown return and asked for forgiveness because she beat Aino in front of her parents. Aino told the fans she is really happy to perform in Okayama every year in front of such a warm audience. Nakajima said Okayama is the place where people feel the most like family. Tokyo Joshi Pro is a family that continues to grow so she wants to cherish it. Kazashiro said she couldn’t stop dreaming about getting to team with Aino in Okayama. She also can’t stop dreaming about Tenma either.

DDT “KOTATSU FIGHTING 2025”, 11/01/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. MJ Paul & Demus defeated Yuki Iino & Yuki Ishida when Demus pinned Ishida with La Valagueza (8:42).
2. Yukio Naya, Keigo Nakamura & Yuya Koroku defeated Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & Ilusion when Nakamura pinned Ilusion with the Modified Crucifix Pin (13:10).
3. Special Single Match: To-y defeated Tomomitsu Matsunaga with the Kojima Impact (10:09).
4. KOTATSU FIGHTING! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno, Yuki Ueno & Jun Akiyama defeated Makoto Oishi, Soma Takao & Antonio Honda when Ueno pinned Honda with a Kotatsu-Style Samson Clutch (14:09).
5. Special Single Match: MAO defeated Kazuma Sumi with the Iai Kick (13:55).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shuji Ishikawa, HARASHIMA & Akito defeated Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Takeshi Masada when Ishikawa pinned Takanashi with the Splash Mountain (20:00).
The size and power of Shuji Ishikawa is something SCHADENFREUDE International couldn’t beat today. Having HARASHIMA & Akito by Ishikawa’s side helped too but the key moment happened when he blocked the Praying Mantis Bomb and then Back Body Dropped Chris Brookes into his own partners. He then pinned Masahiro Takanashi with the Splash Mountain. Ishikawa told the fans he was advised by one of the referees not to sing today if he won. His desire to sing along with his desire to beat Brookes are what powered him up today. He also decided to call his team Smile Squash 2025. Both HARASHIMA & Akito were just as suprised as everyone else when he said that. Backstage Antonio Honda told Brookes if he can overcome Ishikawa he will become an even better KO-D Openweight Champion. Meanwhile Takeshi Masada promised to win the D GENERATIONS CUP for the second time.
The night before this show MAO asked the Grok AI program to predict how his match with Kazuma Sumi would turn out. He was left confused when the AI said he had a finishing move called the Ultra Big Tone. MAO was able to win the match but didn’t use that move because he doesn’t know what it is. He can kind of picture it though so it is now up to him to figure out what the Ultra Big Tone will be! To-y wonders if it involves a destructive ray of some kind? Sumi said there is still a week to go before the KO-D Tag Team Titles match so if there is even a 1% chance he can beat MAO he will take that chance.
It was a cold day so two kotatsu tables were set up in the ring for Match #4. The wrestlers who would usually stand in their corner waiting to tag in were instead allowed to sit under their kotatsu. Eventually the tables and covers were used as weapons as the match heated up. Yuki Ueno ended up using a Samson Clutch on Honda to pin him beneath one of the tables to win the match. With this match Ueno learned that a kotatsu can calm the mind but it also lowers your fighting ability. He also blamed Jun Akiyama for breaking one of the tables.

7. Mizuki & Suzume defeated Miyu Yamashita & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Mizuki pinned Hasegawa with the Diving Foot Stomp (12:42).
It’s finally going to happen. Around 8 years ago Rika Tatsumi revealed she had a crush on Mizuki and couldn’t even contain herself whenever they were in the ring together. Now after all this time they are soon going to have their first singles match together. Tatsumi was the last woman standing in a Battle Royal. Among the eliminations that happened Hyper Misao kicked Yuki Aino out of the ring, Pom Harajuku rolled Misao in a Gedo Clutch to pin her, everyone else then piled on top of Harajuku to take her out, Shoko Nakajima pinned Arisu Endo with a Hurricanrana and Tatsumi won by submitted Nakajima with the White Dragon Sleeper.
Tatsumi then returned to the ring after the main event to speak with Mizuki. She told her they first met eight years ago and they never had a singles match against each other in that time. She had given up on hoping the match would ever happen but still dreamed of fighting her for the Princess Of Princess Title. Today she won her ticket to make this dream come true! Mizuki said 16th March is an important date for her because it’s her birthday so she wants the match to be the main event of “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” in Ota Ward Gymnasium! Tatsumi agreed and they promised each other it will be a great birthday.
The debuting Jada Stone defeated Kaya Toribami in a match that pitted high flyer against high flyer. Stone landed a Moonsault for a nearfall and then used a handspring to position herself into giving Toribami the Spark Stunner for the win.

BASARA “BASARA 266 ~SOUEN~”, 10/01/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. SAGAT defeated Takeru Inoue with the Gore Grind (10:13).
2. FUMA defeated Ryuichi Sekine with the Jawbreaker (12:37).
3. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Minoru Fujita defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Fujita pinned Ryu after a Double Kawazu-gake Otoshi (8:51).
4. 3 Way Tag Match – No Tag Rules: Daiki Shimomura & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated KUBITO & Daichi Kazato Yasu Urano & Judo Master when Shimomura pinned Kazato after a Standing Moonsault/Jackknife Pin Combo (10:04).
5. Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken defeated Isami Kodaka, Takumi Tsukamoto & Ryota Nakatsu when Kamino pinned Nakatsu with the Lariat (15:34).
After the main event Lil’ Kraken started a rap and was about to challenge Masato Kamino for the Union MAX Title. However Takato Nakano stopped Kraken with a Dropkick and decided to challenge Kamino instead! He sees Kamino currently has three indie championships (the other two are a TTT Indie Unified Six Man Tag Team Title and the Shinjuku Nichome ILNP Title) but the MAX Title is the only one he wants. Kamino said it will be a rare match where Aijin Tag fights each other. He will crush his partner because he is creating a new era and he’s not asking Nakano to follow him.
Backstage after the show Kamino said there are two wrestlers who beat him last year that he wants to get revenge on. So on 21st January he wants a match against Daisuke Sekimoto & Kuma Arashi! He’ll go through that match first and then have his title bout with Nakano on a later date.
Minoru Fujita is on a break from wrestling in BASARA but he was still called in for a Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial. Banana Senga spent more time trying to speak like Kenny Omega and also wishing Tsutomu Oosugi a happy birthday than talking about the trial. He eventually accused Fujita of fraud because BASARA was still paying him during his time off. Fujita easily defeated Senga and Gouma Ryu to convince the ref/judge he is not guilty.
After the trial Isami Kodaka announced that Sento Minzoku is splitting up! The unit is disbanding in order to let Ryuichi Sekine fight more often without them as well as to help Daiki Shimomura’s future development. He and Fujita came to the decision on the car ride home after Fujita lost the MAX Title. Their last match as a group will be on 10th February.
FUMA told Sekine after their match that he woke up today at 5am to work on his farm before coming over to Shin-Kiba 1st RING. He’s proud to be a pro wrestler and asks if Sekine feels the same? He wants the two of them as part-time farmers to continue working hard in BASARA.
