Saitama Kasukabe Hall

1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Yuka Sakazaki defeated Marika Kobashi with the Osaekomi Backslide (8:59).
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Yuu defeated Nodoka Onee-san with the Modified Kesagatame (5:40).
3. Shoko Nakajima & KANNA defeated Reika Saiki & Azusa Takigawa when KANNA pinned Takigawa with the 50$ent (11:58).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Akane Miura defeated Nonoko with the Lariat (6:15).
5. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita with the I Am A Hero (11:05).

The big story coming out of the first round is Hyper Misao beating Miyu Yamashita in a massive upset. At one point during the match Misao was accidentally unmasked when she escaped from a Headlock. To show how serious she took the match, Misao refused to take the mask back and continued to wrestle with her face exposed. She kicked out of the Attitude Adjustment and got the surprise three count with a Diving Cross Body. Misao now faces KANNA in Round 2.

In another upset, Akane Miura defeated her tag team partner and first Tokyo Princess Cup winner Nonoko. The decisive moment of the match was Miura countering the Boinmaker with a Power Slam. A Lariat after that ended the match. Miura’s 2nd Round opponent is Rika Tatsumi.

For the fourth time in their short careers, Yuu and Nodoka Onee-san wrestled each other and for the fourth time Yuu won. Nodoka is upset that she is lagging so far behind in progress from Yuu and that she is constantly losing to her. Yuu faces Azusa Takigawa in Round 2.

Yuka Sakazaki will be against her Fighting Comedians tag partner Shoko Nakajima in the next round. Although she lost, Marika Kobashi thinks she is doing enough training necessary to be good. She thinks she just needs to become stronger.

endo-vs-shuji

The Big Dog (no not that one) is this year’s King Of DDT winner! Shuji Ishikawa did his master proud by beating Tetsuya Endo. Now he has a guaranteed spot in the KO-D Openweight Title match main event at “PETER PAN 2016” this August. To get to the final Ishikawa had to beat Shigehiro Irie earlier in the show while Endo defeated HARASHIMA. The two met in the final to continue the feud between Kettaku-chu and Happy Motels. Strength Vs Speed saw Ishikawa Giant Swing Endo into the front row. Ishikawa continued to overwhelm Endo with his size until Endo escaped from the Splash Mountain. Endo hit a Quebrada and Swan Dive Elbow to make things even then locked in a Sleeper Hold. He struggled to lift Ishikawa for the Torture Rack Bomb but eventually did it. He followed up with the Sky Twister Press but Ishikawa kicked out! Ishikawa gave Endo the Fire Thunder but Endo countered the Splash Mountain into a Frankensteiner for a nearfall. Ishikawa regained control and put Endo down with a Knee Lift and a Dragon Suplex. Endo kicked out at one! Ishikawa hit the Splash Mountain. Endo kicked out at two! The crowd were fully behind Endo but it was all for nothing when Ishikawa hit the Giant Slam (Wrist Clutch Angle Slam) and finally got the three count. Ishikawa was given a 1,000,000 yen cash prize from the president of BLACK OUT energy drinks, the sponsor of today’s show. Ishikawa hugged the life out of him. Ishikawa spoke well of both Endo and Irie but was cut off by Daisuke Sasaki. Sasaki bragged about “Adrien” winning the tournament while running down HARASHIMA, Irie and Endo. Especially Endo. He said the KO-D Champion at Sumo Hall will be Daisuke Sasaki…….’s pet, Shuji “Adrien” Ishikawa!

takeshita-german-urano

Yuko Miyamoto wasn’t 100% going into his tag team skirmish against Konosuke Takeshita. He had his stomach wrapped in tape. Antonio Honda kept him occupied while Takeshita pinned Yasu Urano with the German Suplex. After the match Takeshita reminded Miyamoto that their KO-D Title match is just one week away. Takeshita wants to make the championship more valuable and beating Miyamoto is one way to do it.

sakaguchi-rightknee

KUDO joined the rest of Shuten-dōji after they won Match #5. They celebrated with a toast. When Yukio Sakaguchi found out he will be in a match with Terry Funk in Sumo Hall this August he had nothing to say. Kota Umeda also tried to keep it cool. He never saw Funk wrestle live but thinks he himself is a suitable choice to wrestle against the legend. Sakaguchi just said he’ll kill him.

iwasaki-rtc

Among the chaos in the 4 Way Tag Match, Kouki Iwasaki came out on top for his team with Keisuke Ishii. He also won one of the three active Right To Challenge Contracts. He previously held one back in April but did not hold it for long. He said he will consult with Ishii over when he should cash it in and will keep a close eye on Takeshita Vs Miyamoto next month. He also said it is a great honour to wrestle Dick Togo on the same show.

endo-beats-harashima

Endo’s road to the final included a major victory over HARASHIMA. He went in hard from the start, hitting HARASHIMA with a No Touch Dive out of the ring. HARASHIMA picked his spots and cut off Endo during some high risk moments. Endo in turn avoided the Somato and cradled HARASHIMA for a pin. HARASHIMA reversed it but Endo cut him off and pinned him for the surprise three count. HARASHIMA couldn’t believe what happened and admitted he panicked a little. He knows that the only way he can main event Sumo Hall now this summer is to win a Right To Challenge Contract.

shuji-beats-irie

In the first King Of DDT semi-final, Irie focused on trying to choke out Ishikawa with the Tazmission. He even at one point gave Ishikawa the Fire Thunder! However Knee Lifts after Knee Lifts took their toll On Irie. He kept kicking out but Ishikawa hit one too many and that was it. Irie was devastated by the loss.

nwa-debut

The show kicked off with the debut performance of NωA the wrestling idol group formed by Makoto Oishi, Shunma Katsumata & Mao Inoue. As part of this project Inoue introduced himself with a new ring name, MAO. They were ready to perform their first song called “Never Give Up☆I LOVE YOU” when Kazuki Hirata interrupted. He didn’t want to hear their noisy singing. He wants to dance instead and he will fight them for it! As the match between T2Hide and NωA went on “Never Give Up☆I LOVE YOU” played over the sound system and it turned into a dance battle! When it ended Toru Owashi grabbed Katsumata and put him in La Magistral Cradle for the three count. After the match Owashi said he had an important announcement to make. Everyone thought it was going to be his plan to cash in his Right To Challenge Contract. Instead it was a reveal of the musical acts appearing on the “DDT FES 2016” show this November. Sanshiro Takagi warned NωA that their spot on the show was under threat. He challenged them to launch an official Twitter account and gain 50,000 followers if they want to keep their spot.

guanchulo-jojo1

Guanchulo used an Arm Clutch School Boy called the Yeyos Clutch to pin Rekka in the dark match.

The Muscle Idol Reika Saiki will make her DDT debut at “PETER PAN 2016”. She recently wrestled for Tokyo Joshi Pro. Saiki said she is honoured to wrestle on the big stage and she will do her best on the day to show her full muscle power.

A new match was made for “PETER PAN 2016” and boy is it a doozy. It will be Sanshiro Takagi, Terry Funk & NOSAWA Rongai Vs The Great Kabuki, Yukio Sakaguchi & Kota Umeda!

Dick Togo’s second return match with DDT takes place on the 17th July Korakuen show. He teams with Yasu Urano to take on Kazusada Higuchi & Kouki Iwasaki.

KUDO appeared and showed off the new Ebisuko Tavern T-shirt available exclusively in the restaurant. He said he is on track to recover from his ACL injury but only wants to come back to the ring when he is in perfect condition.

Akito is currently out of action with a broken rib. He is scheduled to return on the 9th July.

DDT ring announcer Rikiya Shindo announced he is transferring over to BASARA.

DDT is teaming up with EVERLAST for a T-shirt collaboration. They are also working with BODY MAKER to release DDT “Dramatic Exercise Series” branded training gear and exercise equipment. There will be HARASHIMA and Saki Akai sauna suits, HARASHIMA push up rollers, an Akai exercise pole, a KUDO power slider and Kazuki Hirata power wrist ball.

DDT “KING OF DDT 2016 OSAKA” Results

June 12, 2016

kingofddt-final4

DDT “KING OF DDT 2016 OSAKA”, 12/06/2016
Osaka Edion Arena #2
607 Fans – No Vacancy

0. Dark Match: Mizuki Watase & Nobuhiro Shimatani defeated Guanchulo & Heddi French when Watase pinned Guanchulo with a Back Drop (4:40).
*Mizuki Watase wins Guanchulo’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract.
1. 4 Way Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Mad Paulie defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Toru Owashi, Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki and Yasu Urano & Shunma Katsumata when Sasaki submitted Katsumata with the Cross Facelock (5:39).
2. Konosuke Takeshita, Antonio Honda & Hiroshi Fukuda defeated Yukio Sakaguchi, Masa Takanashi & Kota Umeda when Takeshita pinned Umeda with the German Suplex (9:47).
3. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 2: Tetsuya Endo defeated Kazuki Hirata with the Sky Twister Press (10:11).
4. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 2: Shuji Ishikawa defeated Soma Takao with the Splash Mountain (16:07).
5. All Asia Tag Team Titles: Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto (c) defeated Danshoku Dino & Makoto Oishi when Miyamoto pinned Dino with the Axe Guillotine Driver (11:59).
*V6 for Yankee Two Kenju. Yuki Miyamoto wins Danshoku Dino’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract.
6. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 2: HARASHIMA defeated KENSO with the Somato (16:06).
7. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 2: Shigehiro Irie defeated Kazusada Higuchi with a Tazzmission (15:50).

The King Of DDT final four has been determined. In the quarter final matches Shigehiro Irie surprised everyone by tapping out Kazusada Higuchi with a Tazzmission. This is a new move in Irie’s arsenal and to tap out Higuchi with it is quite an achievement. HARASHIMA did everyone a favour and knocked KENSO out of the tournament. Shuji Ishikawa cut short Soma Takao’s post-Drift winning streak. And last but not least Tetsuya Endo bested Kazuki Hirata who claimed his Hirata GO! glasses were at full power. A lottery was held at the end of the show to pick who would face who at the semi final. Ishikawa had to leave early so Daisuke Sasaki represented him by wearing a cardboard cutout of his face. The semi final matches are HARASHIMA Vs Endo and Ishikawa Vs Irie.

The All Asia Tag Team Title match was overshadowed by an embarrassing situation for DDT. All Japan entrusted the belts to DDT during the week but they were accidentally left behind in Nagano after Saturday’s show. The referee for the match Kyohei Wada was angry that such a thing could even happen. Both Sanshiro Takagi and Amon Tsurumi apologised and took the blame for the mismanagement of the belts. Despite the absence of the belts, the championship match between Yankee Two Kenju and Guname Express went ahead as planned. Yuko Miyamoto scored the pinfall and won a Right To Challenge Contract to go along with a successful title defence. When Miyamoto had the contract explained to him by Isami Kodaka, he asked when the next KO-D Openweight Title match was supposed to take place. He was told the 3rd July in Hakata Star Lane. Miyamoto declared he will cash in his title shot for 3rd July and will go one on one with Konosuke Takeshita! However he was warned that the match will not go ahead if he loses a match and his contract between now and then.

Dick Togo made his first appearance in DDT since announcing his intentions to come back from retirement. He explained that for the last year his desire to wrestle again became louder and louder everyday. It became so big that he can no longer take it. He has only one life and he wants to live it by being honest with himself. So he decided now is the time for his return to the ring. He announced his first match back in DDT will be on 3rd July and he is also booked for several other dates throughout the summer including “PETER PAN 2016” at Sumo Hall on 28th August. His return match is a tag bout between himself & Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano & Guanchulo. Togo said DDT has changed dramatically since he was gone. He looks forward to hitting the new wrestlers who have come during his absence. He looks forward to hitting his disciples again. He even looks forward to hitting whatever unknown wrestlers he might get put in the ring with.

Another Right To Challenge Contract changed hands in the dark match. Guanchulo lost his contract to Mizuki Watase.

6. 3 Way Match: Konosuke Takeshita defeated Daisuke Sasaki and Gota Ihashi when Takeshita pinned Ihashi with the German Suplex (8:19).
7. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 1: KENSO defeated Antonio Honda with the Hagakure (14:11).
8. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 1: HARASHIMA defeated Masa Takanashi with the Cross Armbreaker (6:58).
9. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 1: Kazusada Higuchi defeated Yasu Urano with a Doctor Bomb (16:23).
10. King Of DDT 2016 – Round 1: Shigehiro Irie defeated Yukio Sakaguchi with the Beast Bomber (16:34).

The King Of DDT 1st Round was the focus of this show. Tetsuya Endo defeated Mad Paulie, eliminating Daisuke Sasaki’s pet with a strong Torture Rack Bomb and Sky Twister Press. Kazuki Hirata ditched the dancing for his match with Shunma Katsumata and eliminated him by countering the Lightning Spiral into the Miracle On Shot Cradle. Only afterwards did Hirata start dancing. In a match between former Drift members, Soma Takao got the better of Keisuke Ishii. Takao was happy to see that he did not stumble and fall at his first challenge post-Drift. Kota Umeda tried what he could against Shuji Ishikawa and even kicked out of the Fire Thunder but he fell to the Running Knee Lift. KENSO wasn’t welcomed into the tournament by Antonio Honda but he didn’t let that get him down. KENSO won and said it was going to be the Summer Of KENSO. HARASHIMA bested Masa Takanashi but at one point was almost counted out. HARASHIMA countered the Takatonic into a Cross Armbreaker for a submission victory, a change from his usual method of winning with the Somato. Kazusada Higuchi also added a new move to his repertoire, pinning Yasu Urano with a Doctor Bomb to go through. Finally Shigehiro Irie and Yukio Sakaguchi beat the heck out of each other in the main event. Irie won but he hugged with Sakaguchi after the match. They also both sat down and bowed to each other.

The Round 2 matches on 12th June are:

Tetsuya Endo Vs Kazuki Hirata
Soma Takao Vs Shuji Ishikawa
KENSO Vs HARASHIMA
Kazusada Higuchi Vs Shigehiro Irie

The 3 Way Match was the first meeting between Konosuke Takeshita and Daisuke Sasaki since their KO-D Openweight Title match. Also Gota Ihashi was there. Sasaki took out a 5 yen coin on a string and swung it back and forth over Ihashi’s face. He told Ihashi that he is the strongest wrestler he ever fought, so much stronger than Takeshita. If he beats Takeshita then he can get the KO-D Title. Sasaki then ordered a hypnotised Ihashi to only attack Takeshita. The 3 Way Match turned into a 2 Vs 1 Handicap match but Sasaki’s plan failed. Ihashi missed a Cross Body attack and landed on Sasaki instead. Takeshita then pinned Ihashi with the German Suplex to overcome the 2 on 1 challenge.

At the end of the opening match Sanshiro Takagi spoke to Toru Owashi about his Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Contract. Owashi has held the contract ever since he won it back in March and Takagi wanted to know when Owashi would use it for a KO-D Title shot. Takagi tried to convince Owashi to cash it in but he declined. Owashi told him it is important to consider the current situation and not take attention away from the King Of DDT tournament. He said he’ll get his title match when it is appropriate.

Yumehito Imanari was busy with editing work when he was told in the ring for the King Of Dark Title match. He and Amon Tsurumi argued over whether he should wrestle or go back to work. Tsurumi hyped up his challenger. It isn’t Kazuyuki Fujita or Naoya Ogawa or Shinya Aoki. It was former DDT kickboxer Tanomusaku Toba! Imanari accepted the fight but was overwhelmed with punches and kicks. He tried to do a German Suplex but Toba knocked him out with the Backblow to win. Ken Ohka and KAI entered the ring after the match. KAI introduced himself to Toba and said he was a fan of his going all the way back to his Suicide Boyz days. When Tsurumi asked why they were out here KAI told him it was about the KO-D Tag Team Titles match on 3rd July. Tsurumi couldn’t confirm them as the No. 1 contenders and also pointed out that KAI is supposed to be at a WRESTLE-1 show that day.

Daisuke Sasaki & Shuji Ishikawa then came out. Sasaki greeted KAI by calling him “Mr. Sakai” and telling him it’s been ten years since they wrestled together in Mexico. He and KAI talked about Yohei Nakajima recently visiting Mexico and Sasaki said he brought him back an erotic book as a souvenir. Ohka asked Sasaki for a tag title shot and Sasaki accepted it. KAI celebrated while Tsurumi confirmed the match will go ahead on 3rd July.

newyearcrowd2015

The indie wrestling scene in Japan got together on New Year’s Eve as they always do to celebrate the end of 2015 with a big tag team tournament. While there were a few regular teams involved most were mixed between wrestlers from different organisations.

ueki-bedinn-takagi

The opening match was all about the Bed Inn Girls. They were brought in by Sanshiro Takagi & Takayuki Ueki to support them throughout the tournament and also provide some sleazy entertainment in the process. The Great Kojika wasn’t impressed and he called them old hags. Tetsuya Endo however became excited when they stripped down to their swimsuits. The distraction cost him the match when he missed the Sky Twister Press and Takagi then pinned him with La Magistral Cradle. When asked about the Bed Inn Girls, Kojika said there were more attractive women in the audience. Endo admitted he now learned what his weakness is.

newyeardance

The Brahman Brothers did what they could to stop Kazuki Hirata & Kaji Tomato from dancing because they hate their dance music. They broke the Hirata GO! glasses but replacements were quickly found. Karate Brahman interfered in the match wearing panties and fishnet stockings but he wound up dancing with Hirata & Tomato. The Brahmans then soaked their opponents with water and went on to win the match.

miyamoto-higuchi

The DDT site called Kazusada Higuchi & Yoshihisa Uto the Rookie Steroid Duo. HARASHIMA & Yuko Miyamoto were called Yankee Smile. Higuchi was strong enough to handle himself but Uto was overwhelmed and pinned after the Swivel Fire Thunder followed by the Somato. The rookies said they were frustrated by the loss. They would both like to face each other at some point in 2016.

robo-numazawa

Jaki Numazawa fainted after Match #4 ended in a Time Limit Draw forcing Antonio Honda to start overtime on his own. Numazawa returned as Robocop but could not make a difference. Honda fell to the Cactus Flower and they were eliminated. Honda explained the Robocop plan. Who would win a fight between Robocop and a pro wrestler? Robocop of course! Works in theory but not in practice.

danshoku-kobayashi

Danshoku Dino introduced himself & Yuji Okabayashi as a team of homos. Okabayashi kept denying the claims. When Dino gave Abdullah Kobayashi the Lip Lock it awakened Kobayashi’s Danshoku powers. They both applied the Lip Lock on Tank Nagai then encouraged Okabayashi to do the same. Okabayashi refused and knocked out both of them. Dino fell on top of Kobayashi so it counted as a pin. Nagai’s new wife Mio Shirai wasn’t happy to learn that his face was shoved up Dino’s backside. She’s not going to kiss him after that!

double-torture-rack

Hideyoshi Kamitani showed some fire by stepping up to Konosuke Takeshita and the two were scrambling for the pin in the dying seconds of the match. When overtime took place Kamitani kicked out of a Brianbuster from Takeshita but fell to the same move from Daisuke Sekimoto. The Deadlift German Suplex sealed the deal. Shigehiro Irie was left to rue being eliminated from the first round for the second year in a row.

taka-ito-sekine-kikuta

Match #7 was a sprint that lasted just over 4 minutes. It was the quickest match in Round 1. Kazumi Kikuta almost scored the victory with a Fisherman Suplex on Ryuichi Sekine while TAKA Michinoku had Ryuji Ito in the Just Face Lock. However the tables turned and Ito held TAKA back while Sekine put Kikuta away with the Ryusetsu.

isami-kicks-mashimo

The final match of Round 1 saw Isami Kodaka and Kengo Mashimo struggling to gel as a team. From the moment they entered the ring they were uneasy about teaming together. Some attempts at team work were blown when Kodaka accidentaly kicked Mashimo in the head. The only reason they were able to beat Yukio Sakaguchi & Kazuki Hashimoto was their intense desire to one-up each other and not be the person who took the loss. Sakaguchi took out Kodaka with a Right Knee but Mashimo got the fall on Hashimoto with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster. Mashimo & Kodaka scuffled with each other as they left ringside after the match.

brahman-bedinn

Round 2 began with a messy match between Takagi & Ueki against the Brahman Brothers. The Bed Inn Girls teased Karate Brahman with feathers, a strap and a banana. In his excitement he squeezed a bottle until mysterious liquid squirted out. The Brahmans put a stop to the lewd exhibition by spitting black ink in the faces of the Bed Inn Girls. Ueki became angry and pulled out his gun but he was then crotched onto the top rope and pinned with the Zombie King.

cactusflower-somato

HARASHIMA wore similar Yankee gear as Miyamoto for their second round match. Makoto Oishi had Miyamoto pinned with the Cactus Flower but HARASHIMA cut him off with the Somato. Miyamoto got the three count afterwards. After the match Oishi said he never saw HARASHIMA coming.

danshoku-okabayashi

Okabayashi was announced as “Not a homo” when he and Dino entered the ring to face Sekimoto & Takeshita. Dino kept encouraging Okabayashi to awaken his Danshoku side. Okabayashi got so angry he abandoned Dino and left the match. Later when Dino was overwhelmed by the 2-on-1 disadvantage “Thrill” suddenly played over the speakers. Out came Danshoku Okabayashi! He and Dino double teamed Sekimoto & Takeshita with stereo Danshoku Nightmares. Okabayashi then tried to give Sekimoto the Lip Lock but it was blocked. Sekimoto then gave Dino an Atomic Drop and Takeshita hit a Lariat followed by his own Deadlift German Suplex to advance to the next round. Okabayashi finally got Sekimoto with the Lip Lock after the match and chased him away from ringside.

isami-kicks-mashimo-again

The dodgy teamwork continued for Kodaka & Mashimo. Kodaka once again accidentaly kicked Mashimo in the head during a blown double team spot. Kodaka was able to save their tournament hopes by pinning Sekine with the European Clutch but after the match Mashimo gave his partner a German Suplex.

japan-indie-awards-2015

When Round 2 was completed Samurai! TV and Indie No Oshigoto presented the Japan Indie Awards 2015. The Newcomer Award went to Kazusada Higuchi from DDT, the Best Box Office Award went to Big Japan for their 20th July Sumo Hall show, Best Unit went to #OhkaEmpire and Best Bout was given to Sekimoto Vs Okabayashi from BJW 7/20. Finally the MVP Award was given to Okabayashi.

yankeesmile-brahmans

For the semi finals HARASHIMA & Miyamoto had another costume change. This time Miyamoto was dressed to look more like HARASHIMA. The Brahmans fought clean at the start but soon brought out their usual collection of foreign objects. However Yankee Smile were prepared and used some of the Brahmans’ own spots against them. They blinded the Brahmans with their own black ink and hit their finishers to advance to the final.

slingshot-german-suplex

The clock struck midnight during the second semi-final. Kodaka celebrated by immediately hitting a Tope Suicida. He and Mashimo were finally able to team together with few problems but it wasn’t enough to beat Sekimoto & Takeshita. In a big statement Takeshita pinned Kodaka just days away from their KO-D Openweight Title match. Mashimo was quick to part ways with Kodaka afterwards, only giving a “No comment” in their post-match interview.

takeshita-sekimoto

So the final in the early hours of the morning was HARASHIMA & Yuko Miyamoto Vs Daisuke Sekimoto & Konosuke Takeshita. HARASHIMA wished everyone a “Happy New Year” before hitting a Diving Kung Fu Kick. Takeshita showed his own strength by doing Sekimoto’s Double German Suplex on Sekimoto and HARASHIMA. Miyamoto almost snuck by with the win when he countered Sekimoto’s Deadlift German into a Cradle for a nearfall. But Sekimoto hit the German Suplex on the second attempt while Takeshita wiped out HARASHIMA with the Touchdown onto the apron to end the match. Sekimoto thanked the fans for staying with them throughout the night. Takeshita said it was a special feeling getting to team with Sekimoto. Miyamoto joined in when HARASHIMA did his “Because We Practice!” catchphrase. The show ended with everyone in the tournament getting together inside the ring for the group photo.

In the final Miura refused to shake Nakajima’s hand before the match started. Nakajima kicked out of the Lariat Miura used to beat Yamashita.

Her prize for winning the tournament is booking rights for the next show on 29th August. Nakajima also challenged Saki Akai to a match in Shinjuku FACE on 22nd September. Akai came out and asked if Nakajima was Cinderella because she looks pretty dirty. Akai accepted the challenge and pointed out there is plenty of time between now and then. Akai bragged that she becomes more beautiful after every day so Nakajima better be ready for her.

Ai Shimizu is currently the poster girl for AT-X’s “Our Summer Festival 2015!” campaign. She was presented with a bouquet of flowers from last year’s poster girl Yukari Fukui before her match.

The 3 Way Match left everyone soaking wet. A small children’s pool was placed in the ring along with super soakers and water balloons for the girls to use.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKOHAMA DASH” Results

July 18, 2015

syoko-beats-nonoko

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKOHAMA DASH”, 18/07/2015
Yokohama Radiant Hall
202 Fans – No Vacancy

1. 1 Vs 2 Handicap Match: Miyu Yamashita defeated Hyper Misao & MIZUHO when Yamashita pinned Misao with the Crash Rabbit Heat (9:10).
2. Saki Akai & KANNA defeated Yuka Sakazaki & Rika Tatsumi when KANNA pinned Tatsumi with the Spear Of Versailles (11:28).
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Akane Miura defeated Ai Shimizu with a LAriat (7:24).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima defeated Nonoko with the Northern Lights Suplex (8:43).

The Tokyo Princess Cup continued with the remaining first round matches. Akane Miura defeated Ai Shimizu, eliminating one of the two Biishiki-gun wrestlers from the tournament. Shoko Nakajima scored a big upset by eliminating last year’s winner Nonoko in the main event. The semi-final draw took place at the end of the show. The matches taking place on 8th August are Miyu Yamashita Vs Akane Miura and KANNA Vs Shoko Nakajima.

Rika Tatsumi (formerly Ririko Kendo) returned from injury and had her first match in over 14 months. However her teamwork with Yuka Sakazaki did not work out as planned. She gave Sakazaki a Facebuster from the top rope with the intention of slamming her into KANNA but KANNA rolled out of the way. Saki Akai took out Sakazaki at ringside with a Running PK from the apron while KANNA picked up the win with the Spear Of Versailles on Tatsumi. In the post-match interview Tatsumi said the match was fun and she was happy her return ended safely. She admitted her fear of getting injured again may have effected her performance.

Five months into their wrestling careers, Hyper Misao & MIZUHO teamed up again for the first time since their débuts. The newly named Hero & Sexy team wanted to defeat Miyu Yamashita in a handicap match. Doing so would make them the double aces of Tokyo Joshi according to Misao. At one point they put Yamashita in a lewd position with Misao applying a Wheelbarrow Stretch and forcing Yamashita into a Stinkface from MIZUHO. However a backfired Lariat allowed Yamashita to turn the tables and pin Misao.
