GANBARE☆JOSHI “GANJO WINNING SHOT ’24”, 16/01/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
94 Fans
1. Kaho Kobayashi & Itsuki Aoki defeated Alex Lee & Riara when Aoki submitted Riara with the Chickenwing Face Lock (13:14).
2. Ice Ribbon Offer Match: Ibuki Hoshi & Kaho Matsushita defeated Arisa Shinose & Tsukina Umino when Matsushita pinned Shinose with the Modified Blockbuster Hold (14:36).
3. SAKI defeated Banny Oikawa with the Kentucky Bomb (13:48).
4. Yuu & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Sumire Natsu & YuuRI when Hasegawa pinned YuuRI with the Diving Double Knee Attack (18:05).
Look at the momentum Yoshiko Hasegawa has been getting lately. She was on the winning team in a Ganbare☆Joshi main event for the second time in a row and this time she scored the pinfall. Now granted, a lot of that was because of Yuu running over both Sumire Natsu & YuuRI with a single Cross Body and then hitting a Running Cannonball at YuuRI in the corner. Hasegawa finished off what was left by hitting YuuRI with the Diving Double Knee Attack.
After the match Yuu suggested that she and Hasegawa continue teaming together from now on. However Hasegawa is feeling good with the momentum she’s been building and she remembers Yuu showing off the EVE International Title belt to her at the last GanJo show. Nothing more needed to be said because the sight of that belt makes Hasegawa think Yuu wants to fight her in a title match! Yuu likes the idea and accepted the challenge. The next GanJo show will be on 12th Feburary but Yuu is already booked for an important Sendai Girls event that same day. The two will have to agree on another date but the title match will happen somewhere soon.
During the show’s opening announcements Yuna Manase gave an update for her return match from injury on 23rd February. There is a certain opponent she has in mind for the match. It is somebody who quickly got in touch with her while she was injured and helped collaborate merchandise so Manase could still make money while being away from the ring. This person was also among the first to contact Manase after she announced her plans to return. It’s Sayaka Unagi! Later backstage Manase pointed out her return match will be on a regular Ganbare☆Pro show and she would like to get back to wrestling in mixed tag matches. So her challenge to Unagi is to go find a male tag partner because Manase already has one and they’re going to have a mixed tag match together!

DDT “NEW YEAR’S CURRENT BLAST! 2024”, 14/01/2024
Kanagawa Tsurumi Fruit & Vegetable Market
220 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Wind And Clouds! Takagi Castle Match: Kazuki Hirata & Danshoku Dieno defeated Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA & Masahiro Takanashi when Takagi’s team were unable to build the Castle (10:00).
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yusuke Okada defeated Yoshitatsu, Kazusada Higuchi & Akito when Iino pinned Akito with the Spear (10:56).
3. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki defeated Shota with the Crossface Lock (8:58).
4. Special Single Match: Soma Takao defeated KANON with the Sorarina (8:24).
5. Special 4 Way Match: Demonio Uno defeated MAO, Mecha Mummy and Mecha Pandita when Uno pinned Pandita after Pandita was run over with a car (14:06).
6. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata defeated Yukio Naya & Rukiya when Katsumata pinned Rukiya with the Totonou Splash (15:32).
7. All Asia Tag Team Titles – Current Blast Bat & Board Tag Death Match: Atsushi Onita & Toy Kojima defeated Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani (c) when Kojima pinned Okatani after a Sandwich Current Blast Bat Full Swing with Onita (11:36).
*Eruption fails in V2. DDO becomes the 122nd All Asia Tag Team Champions!
Once again the All Asia Tag Team Titles have been taken by Atsushi Onita. This time around Toy Kojima is his partner in crime, earning the first proper championship of his career. They defeated Eruption in an Exploding Bat & Board Death Match where the items were rigged with three and a half times the amount of explosives than they normally would be. Onita himself took the first explosion when Yukio Sakaguchi hit him with a baseball bat. Kojima grabbed the bat and hit Sakaguchi with an explosion for revenge. Sakaguchi got his own back by Power Bombing Kojima through an exploding board. Onita blinded Hideki Okatani with the Poison Mist. Together with Kojima, they each grabbed an exploding bat and hit Okatani with it at the same time. Kojima then pinned him for the three count.
The team known as Dramatic Dream Onita (or DDO for short) celebrated their prize and left ringside. That left Eruption defeated in the ring. Sakaguchi had said leading up to the match that they were going to fight as if they would disband if they lost. It turns out he was living up to his word and Eruption are splitting up as of today! Okatani said everyone in Eruption helped get him to this point but he cannot rely on Sakaguchi forever. From here on out Okatani is going to tell his own story. The final two members of Eruption then thanked the fans for their support, took off their Eruption shirts and left them behind in the ring.
As for DDO they already have new plans in the works after becoming the All Asia Tag Champions. Onita wants to bring the belts back to All Japan! Kojima will follow him, ready to make an explosion anytime, anywhere. There is also a third member of DDO that should not be forgotten about. Shunma Katsumata is on their side and wants the three of them to challenge for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles! If they win they will then exclusively defend the titles in exploding death matches! DDO is ready to take over DDT!
Yuki Ueno had some harsh words for Yukio Naya after their tag match. He said it cannot be helped whenever Naya loses a match and he just rushes home. Being strong is not enough to take the KO-D Openweight Title from Ueno. If all Naya has is strength then there is no way he will win at Korakuen Hall on 28th January. Naya brushed off the comments and said he is looking forward to the actual title match. He is strong now and able to beat Ueno.
Kazuki Hirata is trying to gain membership into The 37KAMIINA even if it is just temporary. He tried interviewing Ueno & Katsumata after their match and joined in on the NeppoWER!! pose. However that does not mean he’s been fully accepted into the unit yet.
Fresh back from America, MAO had a lot of crazy ideas he wanted to do so DDT stuck him in a match with Mecha Mummy, Mecha Pandita and Demonio Uno. That way when things went out of control no living creature under contract to DDT would be harmed. MAO brought out a bazooka that shot fireworks at Mummy and then drove a van into Pandita. Demonio took advantage and pinned Pandita to win.
The latest batch of matches between ROMANCE DAWN and DAMNATION T.A has resulted in ROMANCE DAWN declaring war on their enemies! Daisuke Sasaki cheated to beat Shota by using a chair and giving him a Low Blow. Sasaki then immediately tried to interfere in the match between Soma Takao and KANON but Shota was right behind him to get back in his way. In the chaos Sasaki hit KANON with a chair by mistake and Takao used the opportunity to get the win. Shota complained about Sasaki’s attitude and said ROMANCE DAWN will still be the top tag team throughout 2024.
The opening match had to be changed in the last minute because Yuni caught the flu and couldn’t be at the show. So instead the other five wrestlers came up with a new match type. Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA & Masahiro Takanashi were given the task of building a castle of chairs inside the ring within a 10 minute time limit. It was up to Hirata & Danshoku Dieno to stop them and knock over the castle whenever they could. If Takagi’s team couldn’t complete the castle after 10 minutes then Hirata & Dieno were the winners.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 ~YUKI’S HOMETOWN IS OKAYAMA!~”, 14/01/2024
Okayama Convention Center Event Hall
273 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Kaya Toribami defeated Shino Suzuki with the Bird Cage (6:01).
2. Nao Kakuta defeated Toga with the Shiden Kai (6:35).
3. Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Harajuku pinned Kazashiro with the Pom de Justice (8:31).
4. Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Mizuki & HIMAWARI when Misao submitted HIMAWARI With the Chickenwing Face Lock (8:50).
5. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Suzume & Wakana Uehara when Watanabe submitted Uehara with the Canadian Backbreaker (12:36).
6. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino defeated Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto when Aino pinned Miyamoto with the UBV (15:04).
It’s becoming a tradition that whenever Tokyo Joshi Pro holds an event in Okayama in January, the hometown girl Yuki Aino gets to team with Shoko Nakajima. Today is the third year in a row the two were on the same team for this show. It has caused Nakajima to act like Okayama is now her hometown too! Nakajima also suggested that if Yukiniki are still the Princess Tag Team Champions next January she should team up with them in Okayama as Yukinikishoko. They won the match and credited a certain local farmer for giving them the food that powered them up. They brought the farmer into the ring and it was revealed to be Nodoka Tenma! She told the fans not only is TJPW in Okayama now a January tradition but she is also trying to put together an annual Okayama wrestling event called Gaisen Sakura Pro Wrestling starting this April.
Miyu Yamashita said she is aiming to win the Max Heart Tournament for the second year in a row. She will be teaming with Toga in the tournament this year instead of Maki Itoh and wants to show her strength as both a singles and tag team wrestler.
Yuki Kamifuku is still out sick so Hyper Misao took her place in Match #4. Misao is also under the weather with a sore throat so Mahiro Kiryu spoke on the microphone for her before the match began. Mizuki joined in too but knew an ambush was coming so she & HIMAWARI were ready to defend themselves. Later in the match Kiryu’s apology spot was for Misao losing her voice.
Tenma also appeared at the start of the show to promote Gaisenzakura Pro Wrestling. She announced Aino, Nakajima and Aja Kong will be appearing on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 ~MIZUKI’S HOMETOWN IS KOBE!~”, 13/01/2024
Kobe Art Center
230 Fans
1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Haru Kazashiro with the Rashomon (6:16).
2. Raku defeated Shino Suzuki with the Doctor Yellow (7:17).
3. 3 Way Match: Arisu Endo defeated Kaya Toribami and Toga when Endo submitted Endo with the Camel Clutch (7:32).
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI when Nakajima pinned HIMAWARI with the Northern Lights Suplex (9:01).
5. Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino defeated Suzume & Wakana Uehara when Mizunami pinned Uehara with the Spear (13:00).
6. Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Nao Kakuta defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Cutie Special (15:10).
The crowd in Kobe welcomed Mizuki back home as part of Tokyo Joshi Pro’s visit there. She was the first to admit her teamwork with Miyu Yamashita & Nao Kakuta was not very good today but the three of them still won in the main event. Miu Watanabe used the match as a chance to test herself against Yamashita on the road to Sumo Hall. It was also a warm up match for Daydream going into the Max Heart Tournament starting later this month. Rika Tatsumi said if Daydream wins it she would be ok with Watanabe wrestling twice at Sumo Hall, once for the Princess Of Princess Title match and once for the Princess Tag Team Titles match. Watanabe hasn’t agreed to that but promised to do her best if the idea does become a reality. Meanwhile Tatsumi thinks Pom Harajuku will get eliminated in the 1st Round.
Things are going great for Yuki Aino at the moment. She recently won the Princess Tag Titles with Ryo Mizunami, they won their tag match today and now she gets to enjoy a homecoming show in Okayama tomorrow. Mizunami & Aino have agreed to call their team Yukiniki but are keeping what it stands for as their secret.
Hyper Misao had a sore throat and lost her voice so Shoko Nakajima had to do the microphone work in their tag match. HIMAWARI got to join in until Kyoraku Kyomei attacked her.
Yuki Kamifuku was feeling unwell and did not wrestle on the show. She went to a hospital for an examination instead and a few matches on the undercard had to be changed around. That means she won’t be at tomorrow’s show too.
Trainee Chika announced she will have her debut match in her hometown of Osaka on 24th February. She is really happy that is where her first match will be held.

BASARA “BASARA 239 ~UTAGE~”, 07/01/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated KUBITO & Yasu Urano when Nakano pinned KUBITO with the Mushagaeshi (11:36).
2. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu when Oosugi pinned Sekine after the Pictures At An Exhibition ~Dwarf~ with Senga (10:16).
3. Isami Kodaka defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi by Knockout with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (10:14).
4. Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Daichi Kazato, Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura when Kraken pinned Kazato with a Jumping Knee Butt (10:27).
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA (c) with the Modified Samson Clutch (20:57).
*FUMA fails in V3. Minoru Fujita becomes the 21st Union MAX Champion!
The new year for BASARA begins with Minoru Fujita as the brand new Union MAX Champion! The man with nothing left in his life but pro wrestling defeated FUMA and promised to lead BASARA into 2024. Takato Nakano came out and congratulated Fujita but told him he thinks BASARA cannot progress until they have a more youthful energy to liven things up. Fujita accepted his challenge for the MAX Title. He’s been wrestling for 20 years and will continue to wrestle for 30 or even 40 more! Fujita thinks 2023 was a tough year for both BASARA and Sento Minzoku so 2024 is going to be the year of their counterattack.
It was previously announced in December but Ryuichi Sekine is trying to crowdfund his own wrestling show in Okayama on 14th April. It is a project that his wife Nodoka Tenma is also involved with so the show may end up featuring wrestlers from both BASARA and Tokyo Joshi Pro.

DDT “SWEET DREAMS! 2024 TOUR IN OSAKA DAY 2”, 07/01/2024
Osaka 176BOX
208 Fans
1. Makoto Oishi defeated Yuni with the Fujiyama Knee Lock (4:41).
2. Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata defeated Danshoku Dieno with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (10:42).
3. Special Single Match: Yoshitatsu defeated Takeshi Masada with the This Is WWE (8:47).
4. Jun Akiyama, Toru Owashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Mizuki Watase, Yusuke Okada & Ilusion when Sakaguchi pinned Ilusion with the God’s Right Knee (10:46).
5. Special Single Match: Hideki Okatani defeated Akito with the Quetzalcoatl (9:54).
6. Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya defeated HARASHIMA & Kazuma Sumi when Rukiya pinned Sumi with the Proto Bomb (9:56).
7. BURNING Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino defeated Daisuke Sasaki & KANON when Iino pinned KANON with the Spear (12:19).
8. Special Tag Match: Yukio Naya & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yuki Ueno, & Shunma Katsumata when Naya pinned Katsumata with The World’s Best Back Drop (15:48).
There were a bunch of giant truck tyres in the venue today so of course the wrestlers in the main event wanted to use them as weapons. There was a reason Yukio Naya went along with this. He remembers yesterday when Yuki Ueno said the KO-D Openweight Title does not belong to the strongest but to the most fun and interesting. Well today Naya ended up winning the match by using Ueno’s own fun pro wrestling against him. Ueno flat out disagreed and told Naya he did not understand his point. He should stick to what he wants to do if he wants to become the KO-D Champion.
So far Yuki Iino joining BURNING is working out for both parties. DAMNATION T.A attacked them with chairs early in the match but once it calmed down into a more regular tag match, BURNING won out in the end. Tetsuya Endo said he is glad Iino has joined his group and if this feud between the units is what Daisuke Sasaki wants, they should fight each other more. KANON went crazy over losing the match and swore to get revenge on Iino for beating him.
The Toyonaka Tag Team of Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya made the most of their home field advantage. Takagi used the Sling Blade on Kazuma Sumi and set the table for Rukiya to get his first pro wrestling victory. Rukiya used the Proto Bomb twice on Sumi to get the win. He said it took him nine months after debuting to finally win a match and he is happy it happened in his hometown.
Toy Kojima got injured yesterday and could not compete today. Akito replaced him for the match against Hideki Okatani. Also Mizuki Watase from Ganbare☆Pro came in to take Akito’s spot in the 6-Man Tag Match.

Osaka 176BOX
236 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata defeated Toru Owashi & Ilusion when Hirata pinned Ilusion with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (10:26).
2. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated Yuki Iino & Yuni when Sasaki submitted Yuni with the Crossface Lock (9:26).
3. Special Tag Match: Yoshitatsu & Yusuke Okada defeated HARASHIMA & Kazuma Sumi when Yoshitatsu submitted Sumi with a Crab Hold (10:24).
4. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Rukiya with the Doctor Bomb (9:20).
5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles – DEAD OR ALIVE Contra DEAD OR ALIVE: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi (c) defeated Bodyguard, Naruki Doi & Tsutenkakka when Oishi pinned Tsutenkakka with a Cradle (16:11).
*V2 for D.O.A.
6. Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo defeated Takeshi Masada with Forest Bridge (13:47).
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Toy Kojima defeated Yukio Naya, Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani when Ueno pinned Okatani with the Jul.2 (21:34).
Yuki Ueno scores first blood against Yukio Naya as they begin building up their KO-D Openweight Title clash at the end of the month. The unity between The 37KAMIINA along with a few goofy ideas along the way was the difference maker. They used a large rubber band to slingshot a gym ball at Hideki Okatani before Ueno pinned him with the Jul.2 for the victory. Ueno held the title belt up for Naya to see after the match. He said the matches they are having this weekend are important and he won’t lose to Naya just because Naya is big and strong.
DAMNATION T.A attacked Tetsuya Endo during his match against Takeshi Masada. Endo had Masada in the Let’s Combine submission hold when Daisuke Sasaki & KANON ran into the ring for the ambush. Yuki Iino came to the rescue and got rid of DAMNATION T.A, allowing the match to continue. Endo was already in a bad state when Sasaki gave him the Pedigree but he kicked out of Masada’s pin and cradled him with the Forest Bridge to survive with the win. Endo was angry at Sasaki’s selfish actions ruining the match. Sasaki threatened even more ambushes to come because he knows which hotel and restaurant Endo will be staying at this weekend!
D.O.A defeated Bodyguard’s team to successfully defend both the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as well as the Dead Or Alive name. However that is not the end of the unit’s trouble over that branding. After the match Kazusada Higuchi confronted them and read out a letter given to him by Hikaru Sato. The letter said “Dead Or Alive” has been a motto used on Sato’s T-shirts for a long time and he cannot let anyone else use it. So Higuchi, Sato & Ryo Kawamura are challenging D.O.A on 28th January for both the naming rights as well as the KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles.
It’s been a long time since Yoshitatsu & Yusuke Okada teamed up together. Just don’t mention the name Yoshitatsu Kingdom to Okada. He asked Yoshitatsu not to bring that thing up again.
Yukinori Matsui announced he will be producing a show in Osaka City Sumiyoshi Civic Center on 19th May to celebrate his 30th Anniversary in wrestling.

1. Keisuke Ishii & Shota defeated Yuni & Ilusion when Ishii pinned Ilusion with the Double Arm Driver (9:39).
2. Legendary Hostess Vs The Toughest Girl In Osaka: Momoka Hanazono defeated Riara with an Inside Cradle (6:43).

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shuichiro Katsumura & Takuya Wada (c) defeated HARASHIMA & Ken Ohka when Wada submitted Ohka with the Twister (20:15).
*V4 for GROUND ABSOLUTE.
For the second time this week Shuichiro Katsumura has successfully defended a championship against Ken Ohka. This time it was the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles on the line with GROUND ABSOLUTE facing Ohka & HARASHIMA. Ohka was able to hit the Shin Flame Spear but was too beaten up at that point to make the pin in time. Takuya Wada took advantage by giving Ohka a Dragon Suplex and then tangling him into a Twister submission for the victory. Afterwards Katsumura asked if there were any more challengers for him and Wada? If there is not then perhaps GROUND ABSOLUTE will fight each other for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title!
Ohka admitted he and HARASHIMA probably should not have challenged for the SOG Tag Titles because they haven’t won a tag match together since 2015. However HARASHIMA said the match came into existence because of Ohka’s passion. He has a special place in his heart for Ohka so he hopes one day they will win a tag team championship together.

Shinjuku FACE
374 Fans – Super No Vacancy
1. Miyu Yamashita & Yuki Aino defeated HIMAWARI & Toga when Yamashita pinned HIMAWARI with the Attitude Adjustment (11:36).
2. Pom Harajuku defeated Kuishinbo Kamen with a School Boy (6:22).
3. Special Single Match: Masha Slamovich Vs Max The Impaler ended in a No Contest (10:28).
4. Battle Royal To Win The Right To Challenge The Princess Of Princess Champion: Miu Watanabe defeated Mizuki, Rika Tatsumi, Shoko Nakajima and Yuki Kamifuku (24:00).
4a. Mizuki eliminated Shoko Nakajima by Over The Top Rope (14:02).
4b. Rika Tatsumi eliminated Mizuki by Over The Top Rope (14:26).
4c. Yuki Kamifuku eliminated Rika Tatsumi with a Kintaro Clutch (20:32).
4d. Miu Watanabe eliminated Yuki Kamifuku with the Tear Drop (24:00).
The challenger for “GRAND PRINCESS ’24” at Sumo Hall has been determined. Miu Watanabe won the Battle Royal to become the No. 1 Contender for the Princess Of Princess Title! The match went on with the champion Miyu Yamashita watching on nearby. Mizuki eliminated Shoko Nakajima by using the Cutie Special on the apron to bounce her out of the ring. Mizuki then didn’t last much longer because when she climbed the turnbuckles, Rika Tatsumi knocked her to the floor with a Hip Attack. Tatsumi and Watanabe then fought each other in a Daydream battle until Yuki Kamifuku slipped in and pinned Tatsumi with a Kintaro Clutch out of nowhere. Kamifuku then tried to give Watanabe the Famouser but she was caught on her opponent’s shoulders. A Victory Roll attempt was then blocked and Watanabe spun Kamifuku around with a Giant Swing. The finish came after that when Watanabe pinned her with the Tear Drop.
So now the stage is set for 31st March. Watanabe will face Yamashita for the Princess Title at Ryogoku! Watanabe said she loves Tokyo Joshi Pro so she will do whatever it takes to win the title and make the show a success. She feels the weight of the challenge because it is happening on the 10th year of TJPW. Yamashita said backstage she is not planning to travel for the next three months so she intends to wrestle all of her matches in Japan during this period. She will never lose so she asks Watanabe to come and beat her at Sumo Hall with all of her might.
There was no longer any death matches scheduled for the show after Hikari Noa was pulled but Masha Slamovich Vs Max The Impaler ended up going out of control anyway. They fought out of the ring and threw each other into rows of chairs. Max brought a chair into the ring and the referee stopped them from using it. When Max shoved the ref away, Slamovich then grabbed a chair and hit Max with it. The ref then shouted warnings at her and got shoved aside. The match had to be called off while Max and Slamovich were still fighting out of the ring towards the lobby. Later backstage when things calmed down Slamovich was able to comment on the match. She said a No Contest means there is still work to be done between her and Max. They can do it at Sumo Hall, in Philadelphia or anywhere else! Wherever a rematch takes place, Slamovich promises to have a surprise in store for Max.
Pom Harajuku is so much like Kuishinbo Kamen. Perhaps a little too much even. She entered the ring wearing her own Kamen mask as well as a lei made out of packs of candy. The two wrestled a comedy match that dragged the referee into it. The ref ended up kicking Kamen and Harajuku rolled him up with a School Boy to win. Harajuku said Kamen is awesome and they are so similar even she couldn’t tell who was who. Kamen said at the time Harajuku debut he thought her gimmick overlapped with his. He was glad to have a match with her and doesn’t want today to be the only time it happens. The two agreed to team up next time and decided to dance their way home together.
The show opened up with Yamashita teaming up with Yuki Aino so the two champions could take on HIMAWARI & Toga. The match was put together to celebrate the first anniversary of HIMAWARI’s TJPW debut. Aino dropped Toga with the Venus DDT and Yamashita pinned HIMAWARI with the Attitude Adjustment.
Haru Kazashiro joined Sayuri Namba for the show opening announcements. Namba asked Kazashiro to predict the main event. Kazashiro couldn’t pick a winner because she originally thought it was going to be Maki Itoh, who was pulled from the show on short notice due to injury.
There is going to be another TJPW show in Philadelphia during Wrestlemania Week. The second show will also include the women from GCW working with them. “GCW Vs TJPW” will be held in Penns Landing Caterers Auditorium on 6th April.

*The 37KAMIINA & Shinya Aoki fails in V1. SCHADENFREUDE International & Baka Gaijin + Friends become the 9th KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Champions!
Before the show took place today Chris Brookes informed the combined forces of SCHADENFREUDE International and Baka Gaijin + Friends that if they lost in the main event he would disband the unit. It was just the motivation the ragtag group of wrestlers needed to beat the fractured combination of The 37KAMIINA, Yuni & Yoshihiko. The Rocket Fist belonging to Mecha Mummy saw plenty of use while Takayuki Ueki pulled out a pistol to threaten Shunma Katsumata with. Honda used the Rocket Fist to power up his Diving Fist Drop but he missed the move. Katsumata was just as bad with the follow up because Honda dodged it and rolled him up with a Leg Fold hold to get the three count.
The new KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Champions celebrated with their titles. Honda thanked everyone for giving him their strength so he could win for the team. He promised to protect the titles until Chris Brookes is safely able to wrestle again. When he does come back Honda said he will fire Mecha Mummy from the team so Brookes can get back in. Backstage Takeshi Masada said they no longer have to worry about splitting up because they won so now they can grow and become a masterpiece. The new champions are willing to defend the belts against any five things no matter what they are. It all depends on whenever DDT wants to use this championship again for a title match.
Yuki Ueno, Katsumata & Toy Kojima are looking on the bright side despite losing the titles. When they were doing their post-match interview backstage they came across Kazuki Hirata sitting in a cardboard box marked “Discarded Wrestler”. Kojima felt sorry for him and asked the others if any of them can take him in for shelter? They can’t so they told Kojima to leave him alone and they all walked off.
DAMNATION T.A used the numbers game to beat BURNING. It was a normal tag match but MJ Paul interfered and gave Yusuke Okada a German Suplex. KANON followed up with a Lariat and Daisuke Sasaki finished him off with the Pedigree and Crossface Lock. After the match Sasaki asked Endo if he made his decision to join DAMNATION T.A so they can create a new world together. Endo refused, telling Sasaki there is no way he will join and the DAMNATION he knew is already gone. Sasaki gave him a Low Blow and attacked him with a chair until Yuki Iino suddenly ran out for the save and took out the three DAMNATION T.A wrestlers. With the ring cleared of danger, Iino then asked Endo if he could join BURNING? Endo accepted, calling Iino the piece that Jun Akiyama left out for them to find.
The last battle of DISASTER BOX pitted HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi and Hirata against each other. That wasn’t all because former members Yuki Ueno and Naomi Yoshimura appeared during the match to read out goodbye letters they wrote for the group. HARASHIMA, Owashi and Hirata all put on Hirata GO! glasses for one last dance together before Owashi gave Hirata a Choke Slam. All of the glasses were then placed on Hirata’s head and HARASHIMA gave him the Somato to win the match. Owashi said DISASTER BOX is now on hiatus but the relationship between himself and HARASHIMA will last forever. The same goes for his teacher-student relationship with Hirata. The three can still team up together and whenever they do, they will make everyone smile.
Yoshitatsu’s first match as a regular means a lot to him because he got to be in the ring with Jun Akiyama again. He also recognises how important it is to be in the ring with Yukio Naya because Naya just won the D-Oh Grand Prix. Yoshitatsu admits he isn’t able to compete on their level right away but he is confident he can adapt to the DDT style.
Both Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi arrived for their match wearing pairs of pantyhose over their faces. They also offered pairs for Eruption to wear too. Yukio Sakaguchi volunteered to have Oishi put them on him and he scolded Hideki Okatani whenever he laughed because Okatani was ordered to take the match seriously. Okatani eventually put the pantyhose on his face and gave Oishi a Dragon Sleeper to make him give up. Afterwards Eruption reminded everyone they are the All Asia Tag Team Champions and there are no other champions like them.
