6. Unit Shuffle! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & HARASHIMA defeated Chris Brookes, KANON & To-y when Ueno pinned To-y with the Jul.2 (24:17).

The final ever DDT Beer Garden show inside Shinjuku FACE took place today. The main event had everyone swap around their costumes and mix up their teams, ignoring unit alliances. Chris Brookes and HARASHIMA swapped costumes, MAO and KANON swapped costumes and Yuki Ueno and To-y swapped costumes. Even KIMIHIRO and YUZUKI swapped outfits with each other! It led to everyone trying to replicate the moves and motions of the wresters they were dressed as. The two teams brawled away from the ring, leading to some confusion when Shunma Katsumata suddenly appeared in the ring wearing a spare of Ueno’s outfit that To-y was also wearing. Yuki Iino then crashed the match dressed as Yukio Naya. HARASHIMA then reappeared but this time he was dressed as Antonio Honda and he did the entire Gongitsune bit. Everybody gradually returned to their normal selves to finish off the match. At the end of the show, Ueno told everyone there was one thing he would like to see one last time in Shinjuku FACE. The “Pai Rangers” song then played over the speakers for HARASHIMA to dance to.

After recovering from the chronic hangover that kept him off yesterday’s show, Daisuke Sasaki was back to fight a fake version of himself. Fake Daisuke Sasaki showed up accompanied with Fake DAMNATION T.A members Fake Hideki Okatani and Fake MJ Paul. They confronted the real versions until all of a sudden another Daisuke Sasaki doppelganger appeared named Daision Sasaki. Daision attacked the other two until he accidentally hit himself with a chair bouncing off the ropes. Then the real Sasaki and the Fake Sasaki applied a Double Crossface Lock to make Daision give up. Daisuke Kiso wasn’t sure how to call the result so he raised the hands of both Daisuke Sasaki and Fake Daisuke Sasaki.

Shunma Katsumata’s new goal of becoming a DDT Triple Crown Champion has already gone up in smoke. Danshoku Dieno beat him in the Lariat Pro Wrestling match to win both the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and the remaining Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet. The Lariat match had everyone using the move while theme songs of famous Lariat users played throughout the action. Since NOAH’s own Junta Miyawaki was in the match, some of the non-Lariat related songs played included Naomichi Marufuji’s and Mitsuharu Misawa’s. They also played the AEW and New Japan theme songs for Kazuchika Okada.

The ending of Shinjuku FACE also spurred on the end for one of the biggest grudge matches ever associated with DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro. The two authority figures of the companies Hisaya Imabayashi and Tetsuya Koda agreed to have one final match against each other where the loser must immediately retire! It was a war that showcased heart more than physicality between the two enemies. Koda tried to summon the power of TJPW by attempting Hyper Misao’s Chickenwing Face Lock, Mizuki’s Crossface and Yuki Arai’s Finally. When they wouldn’t work he stuck Imabayashi in a Sleeper Hold that almost choked the DDT GM out. But suddenly the DDT roster all ran down to the ring to show their support for Imabayashi, motivating him to fight out of the hold. He used the Rainmaker motion to knock Koda down with a Spinning Backfist but didn’t have the heart to finally pin the man he couldn’t beat. Koda encouraged him to keep fighting and after a limp Chop Battle, Imabayashi knocked him down with one final Spinning Backfist to win the match. Koda’s sudden retirement ceremony then began only for Imabayashi to interrupt it. He said without Koda as his rival he has no reason to continue wrestling so he will be retiring alongside him! These two retirements are just for being pro wrestlers, they will continue their management roles in their respective promotions.

6. Enter Sandman Match: MAO defeated Yuki Ueno, Brahman Sasaki, Takeshi Masada, Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine when MAO pinned Sasadango with the Ultra Jam (19:32).

For the next two days DDT are holding their summer beer garden shows inside Shinjuku FACE for the last time before the venue shuts down for good next month. Day 1 ended with the annual Enter Sandman match where The Sandman’s much replicated entrance gets turned into an entire No Holds Barred free for all match. Chris Brookes did his homework and wore a Sandman style outfit. Daisuke Sasaki didn’t show up because of a chronic hangover but in his place was Brahman Sasaki. He unmasked Super Sasadango Machine then shoved him face first into Danshoku Dieno’s Hell Gate. MAO then grabbed a large bag of empty beer cans and jumped off the top rope to land a Guillotine Leg Drop onto Sasadango for the win.

MAO celebrated by calling himself the champion of idiots when Daichi Sato got into the ring. Sato isn’t old enough to drink yet and complained about having nothing fun to do at the show unlike all the adults. This will be his last summer vacation as a student so he wants to make a great memory out of it. MAO suggested they go to a theme park together but Sato instead challenged him for the KO-D Openweight Title so he can become the youngest champion ever! MAO accepted, explaining he’s been waiting for someone like Sato to come fight him. He remembers having a match with Sato four years ago when Sato was only 13 years old. He still remembers Sato kicking him hard and telling him to die. Ever since then MAO has been waiting for Sato to reach puberty so he could finally fight him as a man. Hisaya Imabayashi announced the title match will happen at Korakuen Hall on 30th August, one day after Sato’s 18th birthday.

MAO came into the show holding the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title along with the KO-D Title but lost the Iron Man belt to Shunma Katsumata during the opening segment. Katsumata was then pinned by Yuni while the match order announcement was going on. Another title change happened later when Kumadori beat Yuni to win a 6-Man Tag match. After that Kumadori challenged Katsumata for the DDT Extreme Title after he heard Katsumata say anyone could come challenge him. Kumadori doesn’t want to be a guest wrestler in DDT forever so he wants a title match. It was confirmed for 30th August but Katsumata then kicked Kumadori and pinned him with a Small Package to suddenly take the Iron Man Title off him! He now has a goal to cash in his Right To Challenge Gauntlet so he can win the KO-D title and become a Triple Crown champion!

Lovesickness prevented Antonio Honda from appearing at the show. A.YAZAWA took his place in the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match. Everyone in the match danced, drank and caused each other to all spit out their beer. In the end Junta Miyawaki did a Triple H spit with the beer and pinned YAZAWA with the Pedigree.

Yuki Ishida found himself in the Kazuki Hirata spot of immediately losing his match and having everybody angry at him for it. Earlier in the day Soma Takao announced he would be leaving DDT next month so everyone thought it was unfair for one of his last matches in the company would end in just 17 seconds. Everyone agreed to a restart and the match gradually turned from wrestling into everybody feeding each other cans of beer.

The dark match between Ilusion and Yoshihiko turned into a brawl around the venue before making its way back to the ring. Ilusion wanted to use a chair after a ref bump but ended up hitting himself with it when Yoshihiko dodged a swing and the chair bounced off the ropes back into Ilusion. Yoshihiko gave him the Infinity Destroyer before finishing him off with the Reincarnation, getting revenge for Ilusion eliminating him from the Battle Royal in Sumo Hall earlier this week.

The world is more fucked up than ever before so the time has finally come for MAO to be its champion! In a rematch from two years ago MAO stepped into Sumo Hall to face Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title once more. Time will tell if this turns out to be DDT’s defining matchup for this generation but I can at least come out of it thinking this match came out better than the first one. Ueno got a nearfall with the Frog Splash and later dodged the Cannonball 450° so he could squeeze MAO with the Blackout Sleeper. MAO fought from beneath to kick out of the Jul.2 and also avoid the BME. Then in a flash of inspiration, MAO took a page out of his Moonlight Express days by doing the Ultima Weapon, the Shooting Star Knee Drop belonging to Speedball Mike Bailey. MAO switched over to using Palm Strikes while Ueno tried to combat them with Dropkicks. MAO got the better of the exchange and used the Michinoku Driver II to put Ueno in position for the match ending Cannonball 450°. With this win MAO has now become the KO-D Champion!

After the match MAO talked about coming so far ever since he watched DDT’s first Sumo Hall show back in 2009. During the time he’s been a pro wrestler he met Ueno who became his friend, his greatest rival and even his idol that he looks up to. Now he can finally put his own name next to Ueno’s. He thanked his friends in Strange Love Connection for being the reason he was able to beat Ueno today and finished by saying they won’t be stopping yet. MAO exited the ring and the show looked to have ended with him walking past everyone and receiving congratulations backstage. He then walked into the locker room to find Sanshiro Takagi standing in front of him. Takagi thanked him… then said just kidding, we’re getting a bonus title match!

Earlier in the show Takagi won his tag match and claimed one of the Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlets that allowed him to get a KO-D Title shot whenever he wants. He started attacking MAO backstage and dragged him back down to the ring because he was cashing in his shot right now! If the main event was too serious for DDT, this was the swerve back in the other direction. Takagi attacked MAO on the entrance ramp with a fire extinguisher and also the Dramatic Dream bike. Then in the ring he bribed Masami Inahata 10,000 yen to bring in plastic boxes to use as weapons. Takagi broke one over MAO’s head but MAO got revenge by Power Bombing Takagi through one of the others. Takagi fired back by doing the Sit Down Sunflower Bomb and then climbed the top rope carryinh another box. He tried to do a Diving Body Press with the box but MAO blocked it with his knees and in the wreckage cradled Takagi with a Small Package to pin him for the three count. The night ends with MAO not just winning the KO-D Title but scoring his first defence too!

MAO got on the microphone to yell at Takagi for the stunt he just pulled. He’s always been a bad influence to MAO going back to that first Sumo Hall show in 2009. It’s bad enough that Takagi sent MAO down a terrible path to ruin his life but he also goes and does this to him? Takagi said MAO has some nerve to make that accusation given that MAO has run over Takagi with a vehicle four separate times. Takagi was going to congratulate him but then got pissed off and thought this was the perfect chance to get things his way. MAO criticized Takagi for being childish but Takagi said it’s not like MAO to despise that kind of behavior. This kind of childishness and absurdity is what makes DDT and its Dramatic Dream the way it is. The show then had its proper ending with the curtain call and Ueno wrapping the KO-D Title around MAO’s waist. Backstage MAO said he will be turning 30 during the year DDT celebrates its 30th anniversary so his goal is to remain champion throughout next year. Ueno is looking forward to seeing what MAO’s DDT will look like but this does not mean he is starting again from zero. He promises to always be at the front of DDT.

There was a time when Konosuke Takeshita was called “The Future” and now he finds himself standing across the ring from the next person who can take that moniker. Kaisei Takechi was taking part in only his 18th pro wrestling match to step up against one of the best in the world. He hasn’t come out of it in one piece as Takechi was favouring his left knee after hitting a Swan Dive Elbow Strike. He gutted through the injury to give Takeshita a Canadian Destroyer and also the BREAK IT DOWN. When that couldn’t beat Takeshita, Takechi switched to a Sleeper Hold and almost choked him out with it. But Takeshita kept hitting Takechi in the hurt knee with his elbow to break out of the hold. He then took a Dropkick only to fire back with the Wagamama for a nearfall. Takechi tried one more attack but Takeshita easily brushed him off and used the Raging Fire to win the match. Backstage Takechi said he believed Takeshita could’ve still beaten him if he held back but instead he fought with all of his might today. He promised to get even stronger and cooler so he can fight Takeshita again some day. Takeshita said today is the beginning of his story with Takechi and it is also the beginning of Takechi as a pro wrestler. His advice is for Takechi to think about what it means to stand in the ring inside Sumo Hall and also think about what he wants to do with DDT in the future.

This was a shocker. Kazuma Sumi should have taken Ryusuke Taguchi’s warning to heart. He spent too much time thinking about using Taguchi as a stepping stone that he ended up becoming the stepping stone instead! That’s right, Taguchi is now the DDT Universal Champion! Sumi relied heavily on high risk moves including a Reverse 450° Splash that missed. Taguchi on the other hand paced himself by targeting Sumi’s legs and repeatedly using the Oh My & Garankle Lock. Sumi then trusted on using the School Boy to try and pin the New Japan wrestler, especially as a counter for the Hip Attack. But the Ankle Lock plan paid off and Taguchi and he hit the Dodon. Sumi kicked out of it but Taguchi immediately used his finisher again to win the title. He then got to do his dance in the ring to celebrate.

On the way back to the locker room, Taguchi was suddenly met by Daisuke Sasaki on the entrance ramp. The two went back to the ring where Sasaki grabbed the microphone and said he didn’t expect Taguchi could be this serious. If this is the way Taguchi is going to be in DDT then Sasaki wants to challenge him for the Universal Title. Taguchi responded by impersonating Masahiro Chono and describing Sasaki as a charismatic challenger (“Black Charisma” was one of Chono’s nicknames). Hisaya Imabayashi decided the title match will take place in Korakuen Hall on 30th August. However Taguchi said he is supposed to attend a boat race in Shimonoseki that day. He’ll be able to do the match but he advised DDT to go ask New Japan first. NJPW would later give their permission for the match to go ahead. Backstage Sumi said there is so much he wanted to do with the Universal Title so he definitely wants to win it back. He then brought up Taguchi’s idea for the two of them to team up at the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League. He would like to take up that offer if there is a chance it can happen. His goal is to become the top junior heavyweight and he wants to seize any opportunity to take part in the Best Of The Super Jr. some day in the future.

Sasaki got to build up momentum to make the title challenge one match earlier. He teamed up with a different NJPW wrestler, DOUKI and showed up wearing a similar entrance mask as his partner’s. DOUKI made it clear to Tetsuya Endo what to expect by immediately poking him in the eye. Endo recovered and showed up his skills so DOUKI switched to stopping Antonio Honda from using Gongitsune when he could. Honda summoned the power of Hiroyoshi Tenzan by hitting DOUKI with Mongolian Chops and then planting him with the Tenzan Tombstone Driver. A Gongitsune misfire hit Endo by mistake but Honda was finally able to hit DOUKI with it. Endo got in on the fun too by doing a Swan Dive Gongitsune to Sasaki. Honda could have won when he hit the Diving Fist Drop to DOUKI but Ilusion pulled Daisuke Kiso out of the ring during the pinfall. DAMNATION T.A tried to replicate House Of Torture by setting up a signboard attack but Honda redirected Sasaki into knocking DOUKI off the ring apron. Honda then had a second chance of winning by using the Japanese Leg Roll Clutch to pin Sasaki but Kiso took too long to get back into the ring and Sasaki had enough time to kick out. DOUKI took out Endo with a Slingshot DDT and then hit Honda with the signboard while Kiso was distracted. That allowed Sasaki to use La Mistica Crossface Lock to make Honda submit.

The match between Danshoku Dieno and YAMATO revealed to an apparent rift that formed within the DDT Variety Team. Before the match took place Super Sasadango Machine, Toru Owashi and Akito all reminded Dieno of the rivalry between DDT and Dragon Gate. However Owashi then revealed that his allegiance is with Dragon Gate so he wouldn’t be in Dieno’s corner for the match! Dieno relied on Akito & Sasadango to interfere after Yukinori Matsui got knocked out with the Lip Lock. Dieno got into the Hell Gate position by shouting “Open The Dream Gate” out loud while his seconds tried to shove YAMATO face first into his rear. Owashi ran down to the ring to rescue YAMATO but ended up running face first into the Hell Gate instead. Then suddenly the DG wrestler Yosuke♡Santa Maria ran down to fight off Akito and Sasadango before turning on YAMATO so she could give him the Lip Lock! Maria helped Dieno give YAMATO the Danshoku Driver but it only got them a nearfall when Matsui recovered. Maria then gave Matsui the Lip Lock to knock him out again. YAMATO tried to make a comeback against the numbers disadvantage. An Enzuigiri to Dieno caused Dieno to fall forward with his backside fully exposed. YAMATO then knocked Maria face first into it with another Enzuigiri. By the time Matsui regained consciousness, he saw Dieno tapping out to YAMATO’s CBV submission hold and called for the end in YAMATO’s favour. Dieno later asked Maria backstage if there was something in the past between her and YAMATO because their interactions in the ring was like a lovers’ guarrel. Maria said there were a lot of things that happened in the past but wouldn’t go into detail. Dieno said Dragon Gate shouldn’t be allowing such an unusual relationship to happen in the workplace and threatened to go investigate if there are any other compliance violations.

New KO-D Tag Team Champions were crowned when Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki defeated FANTÔMES DRAMATIC. Aoki’s training that Miyawaki went through along with having some toughness of his own paid off. Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA tried to pick apart Miyawaki before switching over to Aoki. HARASHIMA went back to targeting Miyawaki and almost pinned him with the Somato but Aoki barely broke the pin in time. HARASHIMA then missed the Swan Dive Somato and Miyawaki suddenly tangled him into the Sunshine Clutch to get the three count out of nowhere for the title change! Miyawaki said it was a huge hurdle for him to finally win a championship in DDT and he achieved it because of Aoki. They now look forward to defending the title not just in DDT but in other places too so they can both reach the next level.

Their first challenge is coming up 30th August. Right after they won the titles, Aoki & Miyawaki were confronted by Jun Akiyama & Rukiya. The latter is feeling fired up because earlier in the show he won for the first time in Ryogoku. He now wants a title shot with Akiyama by his side. Miyawaki considered it because Aoki needs to train for his RIZIN fight coming up next month but Aoki accused Rukiya of only acting so brash because Akiyama is with him. Rukiya convinced him he’s doing this because he really wants the tag titles so the match is booked for Korakuen at the end of the month.

Hideki Okatani’s goal of finally beating Shunma Katsumata in a hardcore environment remains out of reach. The DDT Extreme Title was put on the line in a Barbed Wire Death Match that featured several weapons wrapped in the stuff. Chairs, a kendo stick, a barbed wire board and even a barbed wire turnbuckle were all used during the match. Okatani also wrapped some wire around Katsumata’s arm to hurt him that way. But Katsumata caused more damage giving Okatani a German Suplex onto a board. He then wrapped barbed wire around his waist and hit the Totonou Splash to win the match and take more than one prize from Okatani. Katsumata ended up winning both the Extreme Title and a Right To Challenge Gauntlet! He knows Okatani had a lot on his mind going into the match. Injuries derailed his career and Katsumata is sure he still thinks about Kazusada Higuchi. Katsumata understands how it feels and wants Okatani to know that as long as their bodies still move, they can liven up DDT. Okatani’s thoughts on the result is he is lacking something if he still cannot beat Katsumata in an Extreme Title match.

I’m not a father but I imagine some of the proudest moments a dad can have are hearing their kid’s first word, seeing their kid’s first steps and setting up their kid’s first death match skewer spot. Jun Kasai unexpectedly dug a bundle of them into Rukiya’s head while Hinata Kasai held him in a Headlock during their tag match. If that wasn’t enough, Jun pulled out a syringe and stuck it onto his own head before giving Rukiya a Lariat! Hinata didn’t go that far in copying his father but he did grab Jun’s goggles to tease doing the Pearl Harbor Splash. Jun Akiyama blocked him from doing the move and Rukiya took back control to win the match with the R. Fisherman Buster. The adrenaline rush he got from the match caused him to go challenge for the KO-D Tag Titles later in the show.

Things didn’t end there for the father and son tag team. Jun said he’s lived with Hinata for 22 years and has never seen the expressions on his face he made today. Today was fun but Jun needs more stimulation so he is challenging Hinata to a singles match as soon as possible! He would even do it right now but Imabayashi stepped in to tell him the result would be too predictable. So instead DDT will book the match for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2026” at Sumo Hall on 3rd November. Backstage Hinata said he learned pro wrestling doesn’t end with happy endings like a fairy tale. This match was to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of his debut and he still lost. But teaming with his father who introduced him to pro wrestling may finally open the door for this skinny, unathletic nobody to turn into something special! He promises to give his dad the ultimate excitement on 3rd November!

It turns out the tag team of Minoru Suzuki & Sanshiro Takagi is actually kind of viable. Suzuki’s presence intimidated Kazuki Hirata to the point where Hirata almost couldn’t do anything but To-y had no such fear of fighting him. Hirata tried to encourage Suzuki into wearing the Hirata GO! glasses but he snapped them in half instead, causing Hirata to faint in shock. To-y was convinced that Hirata died so he fought to avenge him. However he jumped into thin air and hit the canvas while Takagi & Suzuki were arguing with each other. Hirata recovered from his near-death experience and caused Suzuki to knock To-y on top of Suzuki for a nearfall. Suzuki chased Hirata all around Sumo Hall while back in the ring Takagi caught To-y in mid-air with a Sunner and then pinned him with another Stunner. Because of this result, Takagi had won a Right To Challenge Gauntlet and he ended up using it to cash in the title shot at the end of the show.

A big prize was on the line for the Battle Royal. No, it was not the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title for whoever won the match. Whoever was the champion entering the ring would be rewarded with a year long bullet train pass to be used whenever DDT runs shows outside of Tokyo. At some point before the show Yuki Ishida lost the title to Ilusion. Then moments before the match began a string of title changes in a hallway had the belt move from Ilusion to Super Sasadango Machine to Ishida to Yuni to Kazuki Hirata, who was not booked for the match. But as Hirata made his entrance, he was suddenly grabbed from behind by Akito and put in an Ankle Lock on the stage. Hirata tapped out and Akito made it to the ring as the champion to win the train pass!

The Rumble match then went ahead with wrestlers like Yuki Iino and Naomi Yoshimura scoring eliminations. Akito lost the title during the match when he submitted to Masami Inahata’s Argentine Backbreaker. Sasadango entered the match by handing SSM masks to everyone in the ring. MJ Paul refused so the Sasadango group all ganged up on him, forced him to wear the mask and join their side much to Ilusion’s chagrin. The final entrant Yoshihiko cleared the ring, winning the Iron Man Title in the process. It last eliminated Fuminori Abe but Ilusion was still there to give Yoshihiko a fight. Ilusion survived taking the Infinity Destroyer and blocked the Reincarnation to throw Yoshihiko out of the ring and into the crowd a few rows deep. Ilusion’s title win was short lived though. Kazuki Hirata snuck up on him in his Hammer Hirata form and knocked out Ilusion to win the title for himself. Hirata then had to revert back to his normal self because his tag match was next.

The record for most KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title defences has not been broken after paleyouth failed to beat Strange Love Connection in the opening match. The match came down to Takeshi Masada facing off with Viento Levante with everyone else coming in to assist when needed. KANON & Yukio Naya held Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato in place for Levante to Moonsault onto them outside the ring. Levante then hit the Diving Headbutt on Masada for a nearfall. Koroku hit the other SLC members with a dive but paleyouth couldn’t capitalise on it. Levante instead tackled Masada to the mat and kept pinning him down until he somehow got a three count out of it! paleyouth weren’t happy with losing the titles that way and challenged SLC backstage to a rematch for the belts on 17th August. If paleyouth are going to be beaten, they want to be beaten to a pulp! KANON warned that next time SLC aren’t just going to leave it to Levante to win the match. He and Naya want to get the win for themselves too.

There was a little bit extra that happened after the show. DDT brought in another member of THE RAMPAGE to take part in the show. Shogo Yamamoto spoke to reporters about how it went afterwards when Kazuki Hirata and To-y suddenly broke into the room fighting over the Iron Man Title. The two of them knocked each other out so Yamamoto decided to pin Hirata and win the Iron Man Title. Then later in the evening MAO unintentionally tricked Yamamoto into giving up the title over to him when Yukinori Matsui overheard their conversation and misunderstood what was said.

It was announced during the show DDT will hold their 30th Anniversary show “JUDGEMENT 2027” at Sumo Hall on 22nd March next year. Akito later said the 29th Anniversary this year was put together to show everything DDT has to offer. Careful decisions will have to be made for the 30th Anniversary. According to Akito it is unclear if the Tokyo Dome will be a realistic target next year but they hope it can become one in the future.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 13TH TOKYO PRINCESS CUP” Results

August 8, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 13TH TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 08/08/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
365 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Miu Watanabe & Ren Konatsu defeated Wakana Uehara & Momo Sato when Watanabe pinned Sato with the Giant Swing (11:16).
2. Yuki Kamifuku, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami defeated Miyu Yamashita, Sakura Hattori, Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase when Kamifuku pinned Nanase with the Famouser (10:13).
3. Mizuki, Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Arai, Mifu Ashida & Shion Kanzaki when Harajuku pinned Kanzaki with the Pom de Justice (8:35).
4. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: HIMAWARI defeated Arisu Endo with the Sunflower Tempest (10:35).
5. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Toga defeated Yuki Aino with the Modified Muffler Hold (10:32).
6. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Rika Tatsumi defeated Hyper Misao with the White Dragon Sleeper (13:49).
7. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Suzume defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Ring A Bell (13:49).

The Tokyo Princess Cup will be heading over to Osaka with four wrestlers left in the running. The bracket in its current form ended today at the Quarter Final stage with the winners advancing to a random draw that would pair off who would be against who in the Semi Finals. Suzume took down the most experienced tournament wrestler in today’s main event. Shoko Nakajima remains the only person to have competed in every single Princess Cup but will go another year without winning it for a second time. The two went back and forth looking for the victory. Nakajima took Suzume down with a Double Arm DDT but Suzume then grabbed onto her foot to slow her climb up to the top turnbuckle. Nakajima then used a 619 to knock her back down but Suzume got back up and used the ropes to stun Nakajima with an upthrust kick. Suzume then climbed up to Nakajima and slammed her down with a Flying Facecrusher before using the Ring A Bell to win the match. Suzume credited Nakajima for meaning so much to her as a wrestler because no matter how down Suzume ever felt about herself, she never thought she was weak because of her small size. So from now on, Suzume is going to believe in her own fighting style and fly around like a hornet this summer. Backstage Nakajima said Suzume will now have to go and win the whole tournament otherwise she will never let her step foot back into a wrestling venue or her house ever again!

For once when Hyper Misao said she was going to try and win fair and square she actually meant it. The history she has with Rika Tatsumi means too much for her to treat their match lightly. With that being said, she did use the Hero Spray to get out of a Dragon Sleeper but other than that is was a clean fight! Misao tried to use her rare Vanitas finisher but Tatsumi landed on her feet and Small Packaged Misao into the Dragon Sleeper again. Misao fought to reach the ropes until Tatsumi turned the move into the White Dragon Sleeper to make her opponent give up. Misao considers her attempt at creating a summer miracle failed but on the bright side she may have discovered some new techniques to use against Tatsumi in the future. She’s also happy that Tatsumi and herself are proving that Tokyo Joshi Pro’s original members are still going strong.

Yuki Aino has learned the hard way just how hot a blue flame can be compared to her own red flame. Toga is one of the two newest faces to reach the semi finals of the Princess Cup but took a bit of a beating to get there. Aino grabbed onto Toga’s wrist so she could keep pulling her into Shoulder Blocks over and over. She went too far with it and ended up getting knocked off her feet with the Elbow Smash. Toga then put her in a Muffler Hold and held it in such a way that she bending Aino backwards into giving up for a shock result. Aino always thought Toga had something special in her so she’s happy to see her finally deliver it today. She also thinks Toga will need more powerful weaons to give herself more confidence from now on. Aino gets that every year she says she will start over when she gets eliminated from the Princess Cup so this year she will instead grow even bigger than she is right now rather than go back to square one.

The other new face in the semi finals is HIMAWARI and she did it by taking out last year’s finalist Arisu Endo! HIMAWARI fought her way out of the Camel Clutch by dragging herself to reach a rope break with her foot instead of her hand. She then kept avoiding the Ju no Okite until she found an opening to give Endo the Sunflower Tempest to score the upset. This result is a hard one for Endo to accept compared to previous years. She had so many promises to live up to for people like Aja Kong, Suzume and Yuki Arai. This loss means none of them can come true yet for quite a while so she said she needs a little more time than usual to deal with it.

The semi final draw took place backstage after the show had ended. Rise Shirai gathered the final four together and had them pick a card from her hand. Those that matched colours would face each other in the next round. The result of that is Suzume versus HIMAWARI and Rika Tatsumi against Toga both happening on 16th August. Suzume was hoping to meet Endo in the finals like they both promised each other and now finds HIMAWARI to be rather scary for eliminating the other Daisy Monkey. HIMAWARI has connections to both members but is feeling the momentum of beating one of her seniors. Tatsumi has already climbed over her “Mountain Of Death” in this tournament and decided she wants to be that for Toga since this will be their first singles match against each other. Toga cannot predict what Tatsumi is going to do but her new version of the Muffler Hold was created specifically to beat her seniors so she is counting on that move to take her all the way to winning the Princess Cup.

It was announced at the start of the show that The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) will be holding an audition later this year to add a new member to their group. Maybe Yuki Kamifuku will be among the participants because she teamed up with most of the unit today and took part in all of their shenanigans. She even won the match for the team. It was all part of her retirement road though and she was happy to briefly experience what it is like to be an Up Up Girl as the “Denim Blue” member of the group. The actual The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) also announced they will be holding a solo concert at Shinjuku FACE on 20th September.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026 PRESS CONFERENCE AND PRE-EVENT PARTY IN IKEBUKURO” Results

August 7, 2026

-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Yuki Ishida defeated Takeshi Masada (c) with an Ichizorigatame (7:10 pm).
*Yuki Ishida becomes the 1,883rd champion.

It is a couple of days before “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” and DDT went to Ikebukuro for an outdoor day of matches and contract signings. At first it looked like the matches held on the day would not have much circumstances to until the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title got dragged into things. First the title changed hands multiple times going from Ilusion to Yuni then back to Ilusion. He mocked the fans afterward for spending their free time on a Friday to be at this show and claimed to have hired 60 guards to protect him from losing the title before next week’s Sumo Hall show. However a brawl later broke out between a group of wrestlers all wanting to fight Ilusion. Masami Inahata put him in an Argentine Backbreaker to win the title but he would end up losing it in the main event to Takeshi Masada. After all of that, Yuki Ishida sneakily pinned Masada after the match to win the title and still have it by the night’s end.

Contract signings were held throughout the day for the big matches happening at Sumo Hall. MAO talked about getting to fight Yuki Ueno for the KO-D Openweight Title again. In the past DDT was defined by the HARASHIMA/KUDO era, the Kota Ibushi/Kenny Omega era and the Konosuke Takeshita/Tetsuya Endo era. Right now it’s just the Yuki Ueno era so by winning this match MAO gets to add his name next to Ueno and everyone will know which two wrestlers were leading this era of DDT. MAO also wants to be at his most dazzling for the match so he has changed his hair back to an old hairstyle and is confident he can unleash 200% of his pro wrestling because Ueno is his opponent. Ueno said he enjoyed the matches he’s had with MAO in the last month and it’s hard to put into words how much joy it’s given him. If MAO is that motivated to reach the level Ueno is at now it only motivates Ueno to beat him and climb even higher. It’s all so he can help bring DDT to the Tokyo Dome.

Konosuke Takeshita had taken time away from the G1 CLIMAX to appear at this event and hype up his match with Kaisei Takechi. According to Takechi, 99% of his fans are expecting Takeshita to win but he is going to put his whole life on the line for the 1% that believe he will win. Hearing that, Takeshita promised to put everything he’s learned in his 14 year career into his match against Takechi. He also ensures he will be at 100% and he isn’t feeling fatigue from fighting in the G1.

Perhaps there is a future in store for Kazuma Sumi and Ryusuke Taguchi as tag team partners after their DDT Universal Title match. Taguchi wanted to study his opponent in the lead up to the show and thankfully he discovered Wrestle Universe offers a week long free trial. He still hasn’t gotten around to using it yet but he encourages everyone go use the offer to watch Sumi use him as a stepping stone. Taguchi hasn’t found a tag partner for the upcoming Super Jr. Tag League so he suggests maybe Sumi can team up with him and get the same haircut so they can become The Buzz Cut Brothers. Sumi did subscribe to NJPW World so he could study Taguchi but he can’t grasp what his weaknesses are yet. He also doesn’t want to shave his head to a buzz cut again because he did it once before for a drama role and everyone around him at the time thought he did something wrong and got his head shaved to apologise for it. He will consider Taguchi’s idea to team up though. After they signed the contract Taguchi hit Sumi with a Hip Attack but Sumi got him back by giving him a Kancho butt poke.

The DDT Extreme Title match now has a stipulation and it is a dangerous one. Hideki Okatani believes simply having a Hardcore match with Shunma Katsumata again would be underwhelming so he decided they are going to have a Barbed Wire Death Match! Katsumata ran down the history of Hardcore matches he previously had with Okatani and said he feels incredibly happy to be such a special person in Okatani’s heart. He thinks he is the only who can motivate Okatani to bring out his real self and will beat the real Okatani to win the Extreme Title. Even though Okatani is the champion, he is treating this match like he is the challenger and he thinks the fans will see something amazing at Sumo Hall.

HARASHIMA announced he will become a PR ambassador to promote Ome City later this year. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise, the name Ome has been in FANTÔMES DRAMATIC all along!

*To-y wins Viento Levante’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet.

Next week DDT will be back in Sumo Hall for their big show of the summer. Today’s show was pretty much a last chance for everyone to get ready for Ryogoku. The main event served as a preview for both the KO-D Openweight Title match as well as the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. And just for a little bit extra, the result meant one of the Right To Challenge Gauntlets changed hands as well. Strange Love Connection focused a bit too much on the paleyouth although MAO’s target was Yuki Ueno. It was the The 37KAMIINA that made the difference but barely so. To-y was able to counter a double team move from MAO & Viento Levante and through that counter pinned Levante to win the match. That means To-y now holds a Gauntlet that he could cash in on Ueno if he wanted to. Ueno asked him to wait until after “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” because he’s looking forward wrestling MAO for the title first. MAO warned Ueno that he’s become so strong he might hurt him. He cannot stand in the ring unless he becomes the KO-D Champion but at least he’ll have fun while beating Ueno. Takeshi Masada then warned that paleyouth will be looking to crush Levante at Sumo Hall.

The KO-D Tag Team Champions are feeling mixed over their match today. FANTÔMES DRAMATIC lost but HARASHIMA noted that neither he nor Chris Brookes took the fall against Junta Miyawaki. HARASHIMA wonders just how much Miyawaki and Shinya Aoki have both grown but he also expects the title match at Ryogoku will be fun. Aoki overheard him say that backstage and accused HARASHIMA of becoming complacent. Miyawaki said he wants to beat HARASHIMA for the titles and then walk down the RIZIN entrance aisle with Aoki carrying the KO-D Tag Title belts!

Kazuki Hirata offered to help Danshoku Dieno get ready for YAMATO because beating Hirata in only a couple of seconds doesn’t prepare anybody for much. He knows YAMATO hates the Danshoku style so he came up with an idea to have Dieno chase him around the ring, thinking it will improve Dieno’s speed to use against YAMATO. Hirata also had a trick up his sleeve to wrap tape around Dieno’s tights so he couldn’t remove them and do the Danshoku Driver. Dieno could still use the Lip Lock though and ended up catching Hirata with the move.

The other standard Right To Challenge Gauntlet changed hands when Hideki Okatani pinned Shunma Katsumata in a tag match. This came after the two fought each other with chairs while Daisuke Sasaki rendered Masami Inahata useless with a Low Blow. Okatani got the better of Katsumata and now has a Gauntlet he can cash in.

The longstanding feud of the GMs could be heading towards a thrilling finale. Tetsuya Koda showed up to team with wrestlers from DAMNATION T.A, which means today he was DAMNATION T.K! was able to defend the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title against Hisaya Imabayashi in a 6-Man Tag Match. But after the match Imabayashi faked a handshake to kick Koda below the belt and knock him down with the Uraken Backfist. Imabayashi won the belt and told Koda that all of their matches against each other going back to August 2017 have happened in Shinjuku FACE. Since the building is shutting down soon Imabayashi challenged Koda to a final showdown in the venue on the 14th August Beer Garden show. Koda accepted and told Imabayashi to hold onto the title because not only does Koda want the belt back but the loser should immediately retire! Imabayashi accepted the challenge only for Ilusion to suddenly roll him over and pin him to win the Iron Man Title.

The paleyouth and SLC teams involved in the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles match had a contract signing ceremony at the start of the show. Yukio Naya said he is putting his entire support towards Levante winning the match for their team so he can prove he is not weak. KANON is more focused on stopped paleyouth from breaking the record for most KO-D 6-Man Tag Title defences. The reason is KANON currently ties the record with paleyouth. Levante admitted his talk has been week leading up to the match and he feels he has no choice but to win. Masada made a request to DDT that the match be placed as the opening bout for “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” because he thinks paleyouth breaking the most defences record would be a special moment for the show. Yuya Koroku heard about KANON’s goal in the match and made it his mission to target him in order to break the record. Daichi Sato wants to outshine Naya in the match so that whenever wrestling fans think of heavyweights in DDT, they will think of Sato instead of Naya. All of paleyouth (including Bunbun) promised to work harder than ever before.

6. East Vs West Showdown: HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) defeated Jun Akiyama (Osaka) & Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima) when Honda pinned Dieno with the Diving Fist Drop (11:33).
7. East Vs West Showdown ~ Special Tag Match: MAO (Miyagi/Captain) (w/ KIMIHIRO (Tokyo)) & Shinya Aoki (Shizuoka) defeated Yuki Ueno (Osaka/Captain) & Sanshiro Takagi (Osaka) when MAO pinned Takagi with the Cannonball 450° (17:45).

Today’s show in Osaka split the DDT locker room into two teams based on the east and west sides of Japan. The series went into a main event tied at three wins a piece. The contest became so heated at this point that even the referees started to pick sides. Yukinori Matsui started favoring the West Team so Daisuke Kiso felt the need to get in his way to make sure the East Team wouldn’t have the disadvantage for long. It led to wrestlers from all sides getting involved in train attacks. Sanshiro Takagi lost track of who was on his team so he gave Stunners to both Yuki Ueno and MAO. Ueno was then hit with a Topé Suicida from Shinya Aoki while MAO recovered and went on to pin Takagi with the Cannonball 450°.

After the match MAO put aside the East Vs West contest to talk about the earthquake that happened in Kumamoto last week. He remembers the support Miyagi received from all over Japan back in 2011 so he called for everyone to unite as a nation. Yuki Ishida also spoke about his hometown Yatsushiro City suffering a lot of damage from the earthquake and it leaves him feeling angry at himself for being unable to do anything about it. All he can do is hope how hard he fights in the ring can give Kumamoto even a little bit of encouragement.

The Anytime Anywhere Anytime Anywhere Gauntlet changed hands again. Now KANON is the holder of the purple Gauntlet after he pinned Rukiya in the opener.

At the end of the show Naomi Yoshimura announced he is going to have a match on 4th October to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of his debut. He wants it to be a singles match because he already has a certain opponent in mind.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LOVE AND PEACE TIF PRO WRESTLING 2026 – DAY 3” Results

August 2, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LOVE & PEACE TIF PRO WRESTLING 2026 -MORNING SESSION-”, 02/08/2026
Tokyo TIF Pro Wrestling Special Ring At TOKYO IDOL FESTIVAL 2026 – Greeting Area

1. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino defeated Wakana Uehara & Momo Sato when Nakajima pinned Sato with the Northern Lights Suplex (9:30).
2. Miyu Yamashita, Sakura Hattori & Marika Kobashi (w/ Marina Kumamoto) defeated HIMAWARI, Toga & Chika Nanase (w/ Sayonara Stay Tuned & ChumToto) when Yamashita pinned Nanase with the Attitude Adjustment (13:01).

-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Miyu Yamashita defeated Marina Kumamoto (c) by Forfeit after Yamashita’s Skillful Negotiation Tactics (12:23 pm).
*Miyu Yamashita becomes the 1,871st champion.

The final day of the Tokyo Idol Festival had everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro looking for excuses to cool down. Several of the matches held throughout the day turned into water fights and the wrestlers also advised the fans to stay hydrated so they could enjoy the festival to its fullest.

It looked like Miyu Yamashita would last through the day without worrying about anybody taking the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from her but at the end of the morning session everybody in the ring piled on top of her to try and win it. Yamashita was pinned and when the bodies all seperated it turned out that Marina Kumamoto from Niji no Conquistador was directly on top of Yamashita for the pinfall and was now the champion. Yamashita then successfully convinced her to forefit the title back to her because Kumamoto was paranoid that one of the other ten members of Niji no Conquistador would attack her for the belt during their one of their live performances.

*Pom Harajuku becomes the 1,875th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Tetsuya Koda defeated Pom Harajuku (c) with the Ultra-Low Altitude Finally (6:01 pm).
*Tetsuya Koda becomes the 1,876th champion.

Another title change happened during the downtime in between shows. Raku found Yamashita backstage looking tired so she lulled her into taking a nap with a lullaby and pinned her to win the title. Raku then wanted to sing a lullaby after the main event so Aya Kajishima from The Up Up Girls (2) played her a tune using her nose on a recorder. The music made Raku lie down and Kajishima suddenly pinned her by pressing her down with the recorder. She thought she won the title but instead the referee decided the Recorder is the champion instead! Kajishima quickly pinned the Recorder to win the belt but Pom Harajuku then Shin Kicked her to win the title for herself.

Later that evening when all of the wrestling shows were completed, Harajuku was ready to go home. But as she was leaving the locker room, Pokotan appeared and attacked her, using the Ultra-Low Altitude Finally to pin her and take the championship. However Pokotan then removed its head in front of the referee to reveal it was actually Tetsuya Koda in disguise!

Miu Watanabe brought back The Giant Swing Experience Project from Day 1 and invited Niikura Ami from The Up Up Girls (2) to take part. Watanabe spun her around seven times which was a surprise for Ami because she was told she was only getting five spins. Watanabe said she got extra spins to get her in the mood for her singing performance later.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

2. Grace Project Presents – 3-Way 6-Man Tag Match: SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita defeated Captain Grace, Yusaku Ito & Violento Jack and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) when SAGAT pinned Hiroshi with the Dynamic Bomb (9:16).

4. Dosukoi no Tsudoi Presents: Ryota Nakatsu defeated Shunma Katsumata with the V Slider (13:58).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto when Nakano pinned Kodaka with the Takagari (15:15).
*V5 for Aijin Tag.
6. Union MAX Title – Clutch Supporters Association Presents: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Shuji Ishikawa (c) with the Zudon (18:41).
*Shuji Ishikawa fails in V5. Takumi Tsukamoto becomes the 25th Union MAX Champion!

After eight months the Union MAX Title is now back around the waist of a BASARA wrestler. Takumi Tsukamoto kicked out of the Giant Driver and went on to pin Shuji Ishikawa with the Zudon to cause the title change. There were no hard feelings over the result and Ishikawa wrapped the title around Tsukamoto after the match. The new champion said when he stepped into the ring today it felt like his opponent was 4 metres tall but a real man always wants to hunt the big ones. Tsukamoto told Ishikawa he was the first person he ever had a Lighttube Death Match with and today he is happy to beat him in an important Korakuen Hall main event. He also thanked him for doing his part to make BASARA more exciting over the last year.

Tsukamoto invited the rest of the BASARA locker room into the ring for the closing speech. Ryota Nakatsu brought up the upcoming closure of Shinjuku FACE next month and reminded everyone the venue held BASARA’s first show ten years ago. He challenged Tsukamoto for the MAX Title at BASARA’s final show in Shinjuku FACE on 23rd September. However, Daiki Shimomura interrupted him and said that date is still a while away. He brought up how he was the only person to beat Tsukamoto in Tsukamoto’s 7-Match Trial last month so he should be getting a title shot first. Tsukamoto agreed to put the MAX Title on the line against Shimomura in Shin-Kiba 1st RING on 21st August. The winner and therefore the champion will then go on to defend the title against Nakatsu at September’s Shinjuku FACE show.

Aijin Tag are marching on towards their goal of breaking the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles record for most defences. They are now at five wins after beating Yankee Two Kenji. The win came from Masato Kamino giving Isami Kodaka a Lariat before Kodaka could lift up Takato Nakano for a Power Bomb. Then while Kamino took care of Yuko Miyamoto, Nakano climbed the top turnbuckle and hit the Takagari on Kodaka for the three count. Kamino called it a decisive win which means Aijin Tag has now surpassed Yankee Two Kenji! Miyamoto admitted the goal he and Kodaka put forth today was quite high for them to reach. They’re both becoming old men but they are still going out there because they are strong.

Former rivals and classmates from the DNA days met each other again when Nakatsu took on Shunma Katsumata. Since this match was happening in BASARA that meant Katsumata’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet was not on the line (the rule was changed to being DDT exclusive a few years ago). The match came close to ending in a Double Knockout but they both got back up to continue fighting until Nakatsu won by using the V Slider. Nakatsu later said he was really grateful that Katsumata wrestled here today given that he is also booked for a DDT show in Osaka later this evening. He thinks it was fun to have two people who have worked so hard in the last ten years clash against each other.

Day two of Tokyo Joshi Pro’s stay at the Tokyo Idol Festival continued the mayhem brought along by the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. When yesterday came to an end the champion was Mone Kitazawa from NGT48. But when she entered the venue at the start of Day 2 Pom Harajuku put her in a Sleeper Hold to win the title. Harajuku then went on to beat the odds and successfully defend the belt in a Battle Royal. That match also featured the wrestling debut of NGT48’s Reina Seiji and she ended up winning the title from Harajuku after the match thanks to some help from Shoko Nakajima. Harajuku quickly won it back with a Shin Kick and a School Boy before running off with the belt. But doing that in the heat made Harajuku tired so she got a drink and fell asleep on the ground. The referee saw the bottle resting on top of Harajuku and counted the pin to make the Soft Drink the new champion!

Seiji spoke about her debut to reporters after the morning event. She’s been an idol for 12 years and has done plenty of different things but TJPW opened up the door for her to open up a path into pro wrestling. At first she was just doing commentary on TJPW shows but then she was told she would be doing a match! She had a costume made just for today but she hopes to get another chance to wear it again some day. She also would like to win back the Iron Man Title so she can bring it to Niigata and show it to her fans over there.

In between the early matches, there was a Rock Paper Scissors challenge between TJPW and the idol group NGT48. It was a three versus three series of games and the TJPW team crushed their opposition. Haru Kazashiro, Ren Konatsu and Miyu Yamashita won all three contests against the idols.

Things got even crazier with the Iron Man Title during the afternoon session. Zahrachahiyoni Saito from fishbowl found the Soft Drink backstage and drank it to unintentionally become the new champion. Saito then appeared for one of the wrestling matches where Hyper Misao plotted to somehow give the belt to Rio Ohmori from Ma’Scar’Piece. She dared Saito to forfeit the title over to Ohmori if Misao’s team wins the match. Saito agreed to the terms after Misao accused her of not trusting her own team. Misao ended up winning the match and Saito lived up to her word, making Ohmori the champ. Misao then immediately grabbed Ohmori into a Sleeper Hold so she could win the title. But before she could even celebrate, Mahiro Kiryu appeared and rolled up Misao to take the belt and claim it belongs to her forever!

Yeah that didn’t last long. Kiryu was in the main event of the afternoon show teaming up with Miyu Yamashita and a mascot named Tama. The mascot’s gimmick is supposed to be teaching people about different part time jobs. Why it decided to show up to the match carrying a kitchen knife I have no idea! The referee warned Tama not to use the knife but it held onto it while giving the other team Lariats. Kiryu won the match for her team and thanked Tama for its help. But after the group photo took place to end the show, Tama stabbed Kiryu with the knife and then pinned her to win the Iron Man Title! Yamashita then fought with Tama and disarmed the mascot. She then intimidated Tama with the knife until it gave up. Yamashita now holds the title and fought off Pokotan backstage later in the evening to remain the champion going into tomorrow’s final day at the festival.
