1. Wrestle Brain Jr. Heavyweight Title: Masato Kamino (c) defeated Takeru Inoue with the Lariat (11:16). *V1 for Masato Kamino.
2. YJF Cruiserweight Title: Ayumu Honda (2) (c) defeated FUMA (1).

2b. FUMA (1) defeated Ayumu Honda (1) with a Kimura Lock (1:29).
2c. Ayumu Honda (2) defeated FUMA (1) with a Seoi-nage (1:42). *V3 for Ayumu Honda.
3. TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto, Banana Senga & KURO-OBI (c) defeated SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita when KURO-OBI submitted Kraken with an Ankle Lock (10:13). *V3 for Kokutai Gundan.
4. BJW Jr. Heavyweight Title: Kosuke Sato (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Bloody Sunday (12:46). *V4 for Kosuke Sato.
5. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Seiya Morohashi with La Magistral Cradle (17:16). *V6 for Ryota Nakatsu.
A close shave for Ryota Nakatsu almost put an end to his Union MAX Title reign before his big defence at the end of the year. Seiya Morohashi countered the V Slider into the Crippler Crossface and Nakatsu got out of it to pin him with La Magistral Cradle. He praised Morohashi after the match for being such a noble macho man and then sent a message to Shuji Ishikawa for their title match on 28th December. The match was already on the schedule but Nakatsu felt it would be pointless if he didn’t publicly challenge Ishikawa beforehand. Backstage he said he now has new moves like La Magistral and the Super Figure 4 Arm Lock that will give him a good chance to beat Ishikawa. Morohashi complained that he didn’t lose and promised to keep appearing in BASARA to get revenge.
Both Takato Nakano and Kosuke Sato have known each other since high school and have trained together at the Hamaguchi Dojo. They were able to convince Big Japan and BASARA to let them have a BJW Jr. Heavyweight Title today. It was Nakano’s third shot at the championship but he couldn’t win it here. He has one more chance coming up on 30th December when BJW is holding a 6-Man Championship Scramble style match with Sato and Nakano both taking part. Sato wanted to see Isami Kodaka at today’s show but he wasn’t there so he left a message for him to get better and come back soon.
The entire show consisted of nothing but title matches up and down the card. Takumi Tsukamoto, Banana Senga & KURO-OBI have formed a team in TTT called Kokutai Gundan and they all wrestle while wearing black belts. They are the current TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Champions and they were able to successfully defend them against the Super Family.
The YJF Cruiserweight Title is defended in Best 2 Out Of 3 Matches where only throws and grappling moves are permitted. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi served as the referee for the title match and even disqualified FUMA in the first match when he kept ignoring his instructions. FUMA made up for it in the second match by quickly tapping out Ayumu Honda with a Kimura Lock. But in the deciding round Honda scored the winning point with a Judo throw to retain the championship. After the match Daiki Shimomura walked out and demanded another shot at the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. Hiroshi spoke on behalf of Honda and said he wouldn’t fight a weakling like Shimomura again. But when Shimomura invited Takumi Tsukamoto out to be his tag partner, Hiroshi said Honda is interested in fighting him so they can do the title match on 27th December.
Last but not least, Masato Kamino defeated Takeru Inoue to defend the Wrestle Brain Jr. Heavyweight Title. Five title matches on the show and none of them changed hands.
It was announced today by Tokyo Joshi Pro that Moka Miyamoto has decided to retire from pro wrestling. She had not wrestled a match since July of this year when she won the International Princess Title at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25”. She was scheduled to take part in this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup that was to begin a week later but was taken out of action due to an illness that required treatment. She had to vacate the title because of it and remained out of the public eye since then. No word about her future was known until today’s announcement came out. Recently she had discussions with the company and expressed a desire to end her wrestling career in order to take a new path with her life. She eventually made the decision to retire and wished to do so without receiving a retirement ceremony.
Miyamoto included a message on the TJPW website’s report on her retirement. She said she took the time during her absence to reflect on her future and decided to draw a line on her wrestling career. She made it this far thanks to the warm support from everybody and said her days spent in TJPW will be cherished memories for her as she takes a new path in her life.
———————————————————————–
It’s a sad way to see a wrestling career end so abruptly like this. Miyamoto had worked so hard to finally win the IP Title with the story that it took her several shots at the belt before she could finally achieve it. Nobody at the time would ever have thought it would be her last match. All that was known outside of the company since then was she needed treated for a medical condition. It still isn’t publicly known what happened to her but at least she got to send out a message to everyone as she is leaving. It made the long inevitable news a little bit easier to swallow that way. A lot of the wrestlers are also tweeting about her today and wishing her luck online too.

5. Mizuki, Suzume & Yuki Arai defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Toga when Suzume pinned Toga with the Ring A Bell (16:37).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Ocha defeated Natsume Nakayama (c) by Submission (2:44 pm). *Ocha becomes the 1,789th champion.
A crossing of idol worlds took place for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s final Korakuen Hall show for 2025. They collaborated with the group OCHA NORMA for a special one-off show mixing wrestling matches with an idol concert. For the matches, different members of OCHA NORMA would play a role whether it was as a ring announcer, a commentator or simply to cheer on the wrestlers from ringside.
The show did still push forward towards 4th January. The main event had Miu Watanabe and Suzume cross paths again. Watanabe gave Suzume & Mizuki a Double Body Slam followed by the Double Giant Swing. Yuki Arai cut her off from doing the Canadian Backbreaker and Suzume wore her down to the point where she could do a low hanging Ring-A-Bell. Yuki Aino & Toga worked together to double team Suzume but Mizuki came in to give Watanabe the Whirling Candy. Suzume then singled out Toga to hit the Ring-A-Bell and win the match for her team. After the match Suzume said she is happy to see so many people’s love come together here, whether it is for OCHA NORMA or for pro wrestling. She promoted the 4th January show along with her match with Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title. Watanabe told Suzume they will meet here in Korakuen on 4th January to clash over what they love.
Tea is a strong concept that follows everything OCHA NORMA does but not everyone in TJPW are into that sort of stuff. There’s a group of wrestlers who think coffee is the superior drink and will fight to prove it! Hyper Misao, Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer joined forces to become the Coffee Breakers and promised to paint Korakuen Hall pitch black! They entered to the music from a Japanese coffee commercial then attacked the other team with coffee mugs. Misao also spat coffee into Rika Tatsumi’s face like it was the Poison Mist. However Misao also pulled out a spray can and accidentally blinded Kamifuku when Tatsumi ducked the attack. Tatsumi then sprayed all of the Coffee Breakers. Mifu Ashida threw Misao away with a German Suplex, Miyu Yamashita hit Kamifuku with the Skull Kick and Tatsumi finished off Summer with the Missile Hip.
With Tatsumi victorious the path was now clear for her to achieve her dream. For months now she has been winning and defending the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title just so she can give it as a gift to Natsume Nakayama, her favorite member of OCHA NORMA. After the match Tatsumi invited Nakayama into the ring and laid on the canvas with her eyes closed so she could be pinned. However Mahiro Kiryu entered the ring and pinned Tatsumi to win the title instead! When Tatsumi realised what happened, she got mad and choked Kiryu unconscious. She then invited Nakayama to pin Kiryu but she declined. Tatsumi wouldn’t take no for an answer though and she made Nakayama sit on Kiryu to pin her and become the new champion. Tatsumi’s dream came true and she hopes everyone took lots of cute pictures of them together with the belt.
A special guest from Mexico was booked from the show to make up for Shoko Nakajima being absent due to what was only described as “various circumstances”. Taking her place was Ochanor Mask and she made an odd first impression by deciding to dance instead of shaking her opponents’ hands before the match began. Wakana Uehara & Ren Konatsu didn’t know what to make of the Ocha Libre wrestling style and then things got even more odd when Konatsu accidentally unmasked Ochanor, possibly unveiling that it was really Shoko Nakajima all along! Ochanor tried to keep her face hidden and was still able to pin Konatsu before putting the mask back on in the hopes that no one noticed. Kaya Toribami was happy to win with her new Mexican friend but being a masked wrestler herself, she understands how scary a moment like that can be.
Ryo Mizunami was just as confused as the OCHA NORMA fans in attendance when her match began with Raku & Pom Harajuku taking a nap in the ring, causing their opponents to do the same thing. She woke Raku up and got attacked by her by mistake so the match could go ahead. Mizunami’s team eventually got on the same page and she was able to pin Chika Nanase with the Spear to win.
With a Princess Tag Team Titles shot coming up around the corner, Haru Kazashiro unveiled an upgraded version of her Arm Stretch submission hold. She can now set it up like a Codebreaker and then keep it applied in a way that looks like the Sol Naciente that Masato Yoshino from Dragon Gate used to do. The move that Kazashiro used is now called the Izayoi, which refers to the 16th night of the month that takes place after a full moon… Oh wait, there’s also something here that says it’s a Tokustatsu reference so that’s probably where she got the name from. Anyway, even though Arisu Endo took care of HIMAWARI and left the match up to Uta Takami, Kazashiro turned the tables and used the Izayoi to make Takami give up.
Midway through the show there was a special challenge that pitted TJPW against OCHA NORMA. It was an all out Rock Paper Scissors battle between the two sides. Haru Kazashiro and Pom Harajuku lost their games but Shino Suzuki saved the day for the TJPW team, winning the final game that was worth three points so TJPW ended up beating OCHA NORMA 3-2.
There were three musical performances held throughout the show in between the matches. OCHA NORMA performed for the majority of them but The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) took part in the opening segment. They played two of their own songs along with an OCHA NORMA cover that the actual OCHA NORMA then joined in for at the end.
Nakayama’s reign as the Iron Man champion ended not that long after the show had finished. She was approached by Mahiro Kiryu and Shino Suzuki backstage along with the referee Fumirin. Kiryu convinced Nakayama to give up the championship because Nakayama herself does not want to worry about defending the title. However when she declared she was giving up the title, Fumirin noticed she was holding a bottle of ocha tea next to the belt. Fumirin then decided that Nakayama had given up to the ocha tea which means Ocha is now the champion, not Kiryu!

6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Takeshi Masada
Some thievery as led to a confusing situation over the DDT Extreme Title. Earlier in the week Yasu Urano stole the title belt from To-y and then beat him in an unofficial match to declare himself the new champion. However the match and “title change” was not sanctioned by DDT so To-y remains the champion. The problem is To-y isn’t feeling like a champion right now because that loss to Urano still feels real to him. It doesn’t helpt that Urano is acting like the champ too and is willing to “defend” the belt against To-y, advising him to forget everything that has happened up to now and to take on a challenger’s mindset. For clarification, To-y is still the champ and if he wins here it will be the 6th successful defence of his reign (even though he wonders if his number of defences has been reset).
DDT is giving everyone the early Christmas treat of Minoru Suzuki fighting Jun Akiyama in a tag match.
DDT “HOLY FIGHT NIGHT 2025”, 24/12/2025 Shinjuku FACE
1. Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Kumadori
It’s taken a while for this match to happen. Ilusion Vs Kumadori was meant to take place back in July but a knee injury suffered by Kumadori cancelled it. The grudge between the two took some time to resurface but the last couple of weeks have sped it up to where the match can finally take place. Christmas Eve is the date for these two masked men to settle their differences one on one.

Three returning guests have been announced for the show so far. They are Yuka Sakazaki, Sareee and Lei Ying Lee. At the moment Lee is the TNA Knockouts World Champion and is being promoted as such by Tokyo Joshi Pro. The title has been defended in TJPW once before in Las Vegas earlier this year so maybe Japan can be where it gets defended in the company for a second time.

4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro
5. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Suzume
There was a press conference held in Akihabara yesterday where Tokyo Joshi Pro announced a few new matches for the Ittenyon show on 4th January. The big surprise was the reveal of who Arisu Endo will defend the International Princess Title against. It’s MIRAI! The former Stardom and Marigold wrestler has very recently signed with Michinoku Pro but TJPW was her first home promotion when turning pro under the name Mirai Maiumi. This press conference was also happening on her 26th birthday so this match coming together feels like a present for her. MIRAI said when she was young and immature during her original time with TJPW so she went to other companies to gain experience in many ways. She is thankful for this chance to return to TJPW and win the singles title that she previously couldn’t five years earlier. Endo was shocked to learn MIRAI was her next challenger. It is also going to be her first defence in her title reign against one of her seniors. She called MIRAI the best opponent she can face as champion so she is going to put all of her heart and soul into the match. MIRAI said if she wins the IP Title, she already has a certain opponent in mind to defend the belt against. The match is also going to be a battle of the Tohoku region with Endo from Fukushima and MIRAI from Iwate. The two argued over which area is bigger as if that will determine who wins the match.
It turns out the tag team name YukiHaru was only temporary because Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro have come up with an official name. Together they are called Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed! Aino felt honored when Kazashiro asked her to form a team together and wanted the two of them to immediately chase after the Princess Tag Team Titles. Kazashiro said teaming with Aino will help her break out of her shell. Wakana Uehara likes the name and pairing because Aino & Kazashiro have an amazing anime-like look together. However Uehara thinks Ober Eats have become the most influential tag team in TJPW so she isn’t going to hand the belts over to the new team. Yuki Kamifuku is excited to face Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed but she also isn’t thinking much about the match. Lately she is creating buzz online without putting forth any effort (a recent screenshot of her on a Japanese TV show went viral online). Ober Eats have become a buzzworthy tag team so they need to look strong and cool to sell more tickets.
Two of the three trainees who were introduced to fans back in September will have their first match together on 4th January. They will get proper ring names and introductions before the match but for now we know them by the names Anri and Shion. Anri will be teaming with Uta Takami while Shion is teaming with Ren Konatsu because those are who they have been training with in the dojo. Takami describes this match as a once in a lifetime opportunity for her to be part of two women’s debut matches. Konatsu talked about always being in the crowd at the Ittenyon show and how excited she is to actually take part in it. Both Anri and Shion have respect for each other and are practicing hard to leave a good first impression with the fans. Takami went and got them some good luck charms from Kanda Myojin Shrine to ensure the trainees will avoid injury until the match. The rookies also revealed who in TJPW they look up to. Shion is inspired by Shoko Nakajima and Miu Watanabe while Anri is inspired by Ober Eats and Watanabe.
DDT “GO UPDATE 2025”, 03/12/2025 Shinjuku FACE ??? Fans

2. Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda defeated Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata when Honda pinned Hirata with the Analgitsune (10:52).
3. The Apex Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya defeated Hideki Okatani & Demus when Naya pinned Demus with The World’s Best Back Drop (9:55).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion defeated HARASHIMA, Akito & Kumadori when Ilusion pinned Kumadori with the Swanton Bomb (11:14).
5. Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida defeated Jun Akiyama, Sanshiro Takagi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Ishida pinned Matsunaga with the Buchikamashi (8:18).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Masaoka, Gaia Hox & Rukiya defeated MAO, KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) & Kazuma Sumi when Masaoka pinned Sumi after the F-DRIVE II (13:37).
7. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Takeshi Masada & Yasu Urano by Referee Stoppage when Ueno used the Blackout Sleeper on Masada (22:07).
A decisive victory for Yuki Ueno over Takeshi Masada results in a growing cloud that is hovering over Masada’s KO-D Openweight Title shot. He is already fighting to prove he is a deserving challenger after winning a Rock Paper Scissors tournament to earn the shot. Also the promos he is currently cutting to convince everyone he can win are not convincing Ueno. So when Ueno choked out Masada with the Blackout Sleeper in the main event, Masada tried to start another fight after being revived only to be held back by the others. Ueno was happy to see him showing some spirit but told him that being the champion means more than just wearing the title belt around your waist and defending it in matches. The champion needs to carry everything in the company on their shoulders, including the fans and the opponents. It will be up to Masada to fight Ueno using his own style of wrestling and nothing else. Masada said in that brief moment he was unconscious, he had a dream where he was wearing the KO-D Title. He promised to win the title with all of his might for everyone who supports him.
The main event also had a situation take place over the DDT Extreme Title. After the match Yasu Urano offered to wrap the belt around To-y’s waist in a show of good sportsmanship but he then pulled the belt off him and ran off with it! Urano then approached Akito at the very end of the show to tell him he is the new champion. To-y came back out complaining that Urano stole the belt so Akito decided there will be a title match between To-y and Urano on 21st December. However Urano asked the fans if there is a better time for him to “defend” the title. The fans shouted to do it now so Urano told Yukinori Matsui to come in and start the match! Urano quickly won with a Backslide Pin but Akito told him it was not an unofficial title bout and you cannot win the Extreme Title the same way you would the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. He told Urano to hand the belt back to To-y and they will have the official title match on the 21st. However To-y was confused because he just “lost” a match and he now feels like a challenger instead of the champion. Urano decided to keep the belt for himself as the unofficial champion, then told To-y to forget everything that happened up to now and change his attitude into that of a challenger.
Unlike Masada and To-y, the F-SWAG tag team are overly confident that they will win the KO-D Tag Team Titles from Strange Love Connection in one shot. They have friends who work in DDT, some of whom are currently injured and others who are wrestling abroad. They would love nothing more than to defend the tag belts against them in the future. Jun Masaoka believes DDT will be more fun if F-SWAG become the champs while Gaia Hox has been waiting so long to be a part of DDT. F-SWAG came off looking better than the champs in today’s 6-Man Tag Match and shot another warning that they aren’t just here to have fun. However MAO thinks he and KANON are both bigger and faster than their opponents so the physical difference between the two teams will be the deciding factor on 21st December.
The cancelled Kumadori Vs Ilusion singles match is back on the menu, boys! During Match #4 Ilusion gave Kumadori several kinds of low blows on the way to pinning him with the Swanton Bomb. Then afterwards he got on the microphone to demand a singles match against him on Christmas Eve! He dared Kumadori to stand before him without using lame excuses like injuries or illnesses. Kumadori said he will beat Ilusion to a pulp when he finally gets his hands on him one on one.
A new song from NωA Jr. called “Fukanzen NEXT” will be released on 21st December. It was also announced that the band P-manjiken will be performing at their concert on 23rd December. That is the band that made Shunma Katsumata’s entrance song.
