April 23, 2023

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE UNIVERSE MEMBERS ONLY SHOW – PURE TOKYO JOSHI PRO WRESTLING 8”, 23/04/2023
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
219 Fans

4. Vert Vixen & Hikari Noa defeated Maki Itoh & Toga when Noa pinned Toga with a Running Neckbreaker Drop (10:55).
5. Tetsuya Koda Seat King 5 Way Match: Arisu Endo defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Hyper Misao and HIMAWARI
5a. No Touch Rope: Miu Watanabe eliminated HIMAWARI with a pin on the ropes.
5b. Illustration: Hyper Misao eliminated Miu Watanabe with a Seahorse drawing.
5c. TK Quiz: Arisu Endo eliminated Hyper Misao.
5d. Cheering: Arisu Endo eliminated Rika Tatsumi by Audience Decision (3:00).
*Arisu Endo becomes the 1st Tetsuya Koda Seat King champion.
6. Costume Change Match: Mizuki, Yuki Kamifuku & Pom Harajuku defeated Suzume, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Mizuki pinned Kiryu with the Diving Foot Stomp (13:21).

The wrestler costumes in the main event went as follows: Mizuki was dressed as Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Kamifuku was dressed as Mahiro Kiryu, Pom Harajuku was dressed as Yuki Kamifuku, Suzume was dressed as Nao Kakuta, Mahiro Kiryu was dressed as Haruna Neko and Haruna Neko was dressed as Raku. Kamifuku apologised during the match for acting like a more authentic Kiryu than Kiryu. After the match Mizuki admitted it’s difficult to become someone else. Suzume said she would be happy if her efforts made everyone feel like they say Kakuta wrestle today. Neko said she was nervous so she watched videos of Raku in order to become her. Kiryu said she has new respect for Neko because she isn’t able to behave as a catgirl like she does.

The show began with a Cooking Match between Yuka Sakazaki and Moka Miyamoto. The two were tasked with cooking up a Okonomiyaki but first they had to compete in mini-games with the winners getting to choose their ingredients. Miyamoto won the games of jump rope and building a card castle and another card game to receive cabbage and pork belly. Sakazaki was left with chocolate and marshmellow. However Sakazaki won the third game of cards but was convinced by the audience to pick coffee flavored jelly over seafood mix. They spent the rest of the show creating their meal to be served to Daisuke Kiso before the main event. Kiso enjoyed both dishes and unexpectedly chose Sakazaki as the winner. He liked Miyamoto’s dish because as a traditional Okonomiyaki but Sakazaki’s tasted so sweet and had the bonus of her improvising with unusual ingredients that it won him over in the end.

The 5 Way Match was held under Tetsuya Koda Seat King rules. Chairs were placed in the ring each with a stipulation attached to it. HIMAWARI sat down on the chair that said “No Touch Rope” so she had to play a game against Miu Watanabe where you had to pin your opponent against the ropes for 3 seconds to win. Watanabe overpowered HIMAWARI and held her down onto the middle rope to eliminate her from the match. Next, Watanabe sat on the chair that said “Illustration” so she had a drawing contest against Hyper Misao. Everytime somebody got a 1 Count pin they got to draw something in 30 seconds and it was up to Koda to guess what it is. Whoever got Koda to guess correctly would win. Watanabe drew a “Frilled Lizard” but Koda thought it was Kamen Rider. Misao drew a Seahorse and Koda correctly guessed it, eliminating Watanabe. The third game was a “TK Quiz” between Misao and Arisu Endo. They had to answer trivia questions about Koda after every 1 Count pin. They got questions about Koda’s birthday and what he ate for breakfast wrong but Endo correctly guessed his blood type is B so Misao was now out of the game. The final game was a Cheering Contest between Endo and Rika Tatsumi. If neither wrestler could beat each other in 3 minutes then Koda will choose the winner based on who got cheered more. When it was time to decide, Koda declared that Endo was the winner! Tatsumi got angry over the result and slapped Koda across the face, which got her more cheers than during the match.

Haru Kazashiro was welcomed into Tokyo Joshi Pro’s Tokusatsu Club by Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino. Kazashiro is taking Nodoka Tenma’s spot in the group so the other members expected her to be in the same base position for their standing stacked spot. She wasn’t strong enough to do it so Nakajima & Aino decided to carry her and charge into their opponents instead. That also didn’t work.

DDT “YAMADA FISHERIES PRESENTS 4.23 SHIBUSHI FISH MEAT DECISIVE BATTLE” Results

April 23, 2023

DDT “YAMADA FISHERIES PRESENTS 4.23 SHIBUSHI FISH MEAT DECISIVE BATTLE @ UNAGI STATION”, 23/04/2023
Kagoshima Shibushi City Unagi Station
400 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Yusuke Okada defeated Takeshi Masada with a Rotating Cradle (9:49).
2. Makoto Oishi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani defeated Shunma Katsumata, Rayne Leverkusen & Kazuki Hirata when Akai pinned Hirata with the Quetzalcoatl (11:11).
3. The 37KAMIINA Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated MAO & Toy Kojima when KANON pinned Kojima with the Sleepy Hollow (10:23).
4. Special Tag Match: Yuki “Strong” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno defeated Yuji Hino & Kazuma Sumi when Iino submitted Sumi with the Torso Choke Dragon Sleeper (12:08).
5. Shibushi Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shiro Koshinaka, Toru Owashi & Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku when Koshinaka pinned Koroku with the Diving Hip Attack (12:40).
6. Fish Vs Meat Full-Scale Battle! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shishamo Power, Unagi Mask & Super Unagi Mask defeated Jun Akiyama, Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Super Unagi pinned Ishida with the Super Unagi Splash (14:46).

The combined forces of the seafood team defeated the meat loving team in the main event. The newcomer Super Unagi Mask credited eating shishamo and unagi for being able to win because that is his diet to build muscle. The original Unagi Mask is now looking for more competition and thinks it would be interesting if new opponents confront him in the future. The president of the show sponsor Yamada Suisan suggested finding wrestlers to represent the rest of their seafood like mackerel, salmon and herring. Shishamo Power likes the idea because it shows the power of seafood and pro wrestling to the whole world!

The evolved form of Yuki Iino got to show his stuff against Yuji Hino for the first time today. Yuki “Strong” Iino did very little of the lewd antics you would expect from Pheromones. He threw Kazuma Sumi face first into Danshoku Dieno’s exposed rear end but other than that it was serious business from Iino on the way to victory. Hino was impressed with Iino’s performance and thinks he has become the perfect opponent for him. Dieno warns Hino that the KO-D Openweight Title match on 3rd May could end up becoming a one sided affair if he takes Iino lightly!

GANBARE☆PRO “THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 2023” Results

April 22, 2023

GANBARE☆PRO “THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 2023”, 22/04/2023
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR
81 Fans

1. 3 Way Match: KOJIO defeated Shota and Munetatsu Nakamura when KOJIO pinned Nakamura with the World Breaker (8:26).
2. Ancham defeated YuuRI with the I Still Don’t Know The Name Of The Technique I Saw That Day (13:11).
3. Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Vs Sento Minzoku!: Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita defeated Ken Ohka & Shinichiro Tominaga when Fujita pinned Tominaga with the Modified Samson Clutch (14:11).
4. Mizuki Watase, Yumehito Imanari & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated Keisuke Ishii, Tyson Maeguchi & Takuya Wada when Imanari pinned Maeguchi with the Lariat (18:12).

The final show of today’s tripleshot built towards the 5th May Korakuen Hall show. It was the last prelim bout between Mizuki Watase and Keisuke Ishii as well as a preview for Shuichiro Katsumura versus Takuya Wada on 6th May. The result saw Yumehito Imanari pin Tyson Maeguchi with the Lariat, a possible prediction for which team will win the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Titles at Korakuen. The Lariat knocked Maeguchi so loopy he thought the title match will be happening at the Tokyo Dome! Ishii’s side lost the match but he still thinks he gained some momentum back from Watase.

The show began with Ken Ohka declaring war on Sento Minzoku! He had Shinichiro Tominaga on his team and today’s match had a special meaning for his partner. It was Tominaga’s last match as a 35 year old so he was determined to win! Unfortunately Minoru Fujita tangled him up in the Samson Clutch, giving the invading team the victory. The result left Ohka frustrated because he can never beat Isami Kodaka! He’s going to keep trying though even if it takes him into his 50s and 60s. Meanwhile Kodaka thanked Ganbare☆Pro for the warm welcome today. He genuinely thinks the promotion wants him to join them. Fujita also thinks GanPro now is very different than the GanPro he wrestled for 8 years ago.

Ancham’s submission finisher is called the I Still Don’t Know The Name Of The Technique I Saw That Day, or just simply That Technique for short. It is something she claims she came up on the spur of the moment.

The monster KOJIO was dominant in his GanPro debut, easily dismantling both Shota and Munetatsu Nakamura in the 3 Way Match.

Miyako Matsumoto entered the ring at the end of the show demanding to be added to the 2nd May Ganbare☆Joshi event. Her demand was rejected by Michiyoshi Mishima because nobody on the roster is interested in fighting her.

DDT “MAX BUMP 2023 TOUR IN FUKUOKA” Results

April 22, 2023

DDT “MAX BUMP 2023 TOUR IN FUKUOKA”, 22/04/2023
Fukuoka Kasuga General Sports Center
196 Fans

1. Fukuoka Specialty Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & KANON defeated Azul Dragon & Rukiya when Sasaki submitted Rukiya with a Crab Hold (8:45).
2. Akito & Takeshi Masada defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata when Akito pinned Hirata with a Gedo Clutch (0:11).
2a. Rematch: Akito & Takeshi Masada defeated Sanshiro Takagi & Kazuki Hirata when Masada pinned Hirata with the Samurai Driver ’01 (9:44).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani defeated Yusuke Okada, Rayne Leverkusen & Kazuma Sumi when Okatani pinned Sumi with the Double Arm Suplex (9:25).
4. Pheromones Vs DISASTER BOX!: Yuki “Not Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs HARASHIMA & Toru Owashi ended in a No Contest (12:57).
5. Ω Vs Harimao!: Yuji Hino & Makoto Oishi defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida when Hino submitted Ishida with the King Kong Sleeper (15:06).
6. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku defeated MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Toy Kojima when Endo pinned Kojima with the Burning Star Press (21:21).

The war of words between Tetsuya Endo and MAO continued after the main event. Endo admitted to feeling a little lost lately but knew his answer today was to hit MAO with his core as the DDT Universal Champion. MAO didn’t respond in the ring but backstage said nothing has changed because Endo is still exposing his weak side. Meanwhile Shunma Katsumata & Toy Kojima had trouble working together as a team. That’s something that did not go unnoticed by Jun Akiyama. Kojima admitted that Akiyama recently bought him a steak meal and he appreciates it. But he promises he will be fair and square if he gets dragged into the TLC Match between Akiyama and Katsumata on 3rd May.

Makoto Oishi wanted to focus on his own match late in the show so he appointed Hisaya Imabayashi to be a second Sexy Judge for the Pheromones match. Yuki Iino wore his old wrestling gear and resisted turning “Sexy” until Imabayashi took a bump and was left knocked out at ringside. From there Pheromones went wild on everyone including the referee and got the match thrown out. They got their costumes back on in time to see Oishi rush down to the ring and wake up Imabayashi. Oishi asked the GM to judge Iino’s behavior. Imabayashi couldn’t remember anything except seeing Iino wrestle Strong Style. Oishi took him at his word and sounded impressed with Iino’s improvement in behavior. He passed the info on to Yuji Hino and if what Hino heard was true, then he has high expectations for his KO-D Openweight Title defence against Iino on 3rd May. Danshoku Dieno claims that Iino has now evolved into Yuki “Strong” Iino!

The DDT debut of Rayne Leverkusen saw her be on the losing side against Eruption. She had to be kept away from Saki Akai after the match otherwise they would have kept on fighting. Leverkusen thinks if she was tagged in more then her team probably would have won today. Akai said she doesn’t care who Leverkusen is related to because she has famous relatives too and they’re not in the ring fighting with her. They’ll see each other again tomorrow.

Sanshiro Takagi got pissed that his match only last about 10 seconds because he wants to keep motivated for the King Of DDT tournament. The tag match restarted and was now built around Takeshi Masada putting on the Hirata GO! glasses to dance with and fight against Kazuki Hirata.

4. Shota Debut 15th Anniversary Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka defeated Shota with a Headlock (20:30).

Twenty minutes of back and forth wrestling between Shota and Isami Kodaka all came down to a simple Headlock to decide the winner. Kodaka clamped on the move tight, causing a tired Shota to give up and lose his 15th Anniversary match. Shota still thinks he made the right choice nominating Kodaka to be his opponent for the special occasion. He believes his wrestling career does not have long left but that does not mean he is going to quit the business yet. There’s still so much in the world he wants to experience. Kodaka was happy to be invited and wants other BASARA wrestlers to participate in Ganbare☆Pro more often, especially to have matches with Shota.

Osaka Edion Arena #2

6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) defeated Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku when Sakazaki pinned Harajuku with an Elbow Butt (11:38).
*V1 for The Magical Sugar Rabbits.

Sadly Pom Harajuku and her runaway monster tag partner Max The Impaler were unable to win the Princess Tag Team Titles. Max used Harajuku as a projectile many times during the match, throwing her onto both Magical Sugar Rabbits at every opportunity. However they missed the Wasteland War Justice on Yuka Sakazaki, giving Mizuki the chance to Double Stomp Harajuku. Sakazaki overpowered Max with the Magical Merry-Go-Round and then got into a strike exchange with Harajuku. The fans cheered for Harajuku as she hit Elbow Strike after Elbow Strike, but Sakazaki knocked her down with one big Elbow Smash in return and that was enough to get the three count.

Max carried Harajuku away from ringside while MagiRabi celebrated their victory. Sakazaki wiped away Max’s facepaint that had smudged Mizuki’s face. She quickly cleaned it off when Mizuki asked if the facepaint represents a symbol of Max’s friendship. They both praised Harajuku for being more lively today but can’t figure out if Max is treating her like a partner or like a toy. Backstage Harajuku was so upset over losing she cried. In a rare showing of compassion, Max wiped the tears away from her face.

We all know by now that Rika Tatsumi likes to choke her opponents. Well today Suzume choked her back in an effort to prove she is a serious challenger for the International Princess Title. However Tatsumi overpowered Suzume and choked her back Neck Hanging style. Despite that setback, Suzume is still confident she can win the title from Tatsumi.

The official name for the trio of Yuki Kamifuku, Yuki Aino & Yuki Arai is now Triple YUKI! Today was their second time all teaming together and they believe their combined power is infinite. After they won their match, Kamifuku gave Aino & Arai gummy bears as a reward. The other team’s vibes were not as nice though. Maki Itoh blamed Shino Suzuki for losing. Her criticisms were to motiviate Suzuki into doing better next time but Itoh then told Hikari Noa that she won’t be teaming with Suzuki again.

HIMAWARI was wrestling in a 3 Way Match for the first time so she had a lot to prove to the self-proclaimed “God Of 3 Ways” Hyper Misao. HIMAWARI was told she has to qualities to succeed in 3 Way Matches so Misao proposed they work together against Raku. They went on to fight Raku 2-on-1 but Raku got out of there with the win anyway. She capitalised on the alliance falling apart and then pinned HIMAWARI before Misao could break it up.

The new finishing move Mizuki Watase developed in America was shown off in Ganbare☆Pro for the first time today. The Venetian is a Wrist-Clutch lifted into an Emerald Flowsion style driver. After winning the match with the new finisher, Watase told the fans he cannot help but look forward to Korakuen Hall on 5th May. Backstage he said he knows Keisuke Ishii is already playing mind games with him over their Spirit Of Ganbare Title match. Ishii admits the champion now has the advantage and momentum going into the title match. He will aim to get back at him on tonight’s show to even the odds.

The rookie Munetatsu Nakamura gave himself a goal for today’s tripleshot. He was aiming to win all of his three matches. His quest already ended on the first show when Takuya Wada made him submit.

Moeka Haruhi is looking forward to returning to GanPro after she recovers from the kidney donation surgery for her sister. In regards to Ganbare☆Joshi, she says nobody will feel left out over there because GanJo is filled with kindness. She thinks Yoshiko Hasegawa’s wrestling is the future and she wants to see her carve it out herself.
