TOKYO JOSHI PRO “I WANT TO SAVE EVERYONE WITH A SMILE” Results

September 13, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “I WANT TO SAVE EVERYONE WITH A SMILE ~ ARISU’S AIZUWAKAMATSU GRAND MARCH”, 13/09/2025
Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu City Tsurugajo Gymnasium
567 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Kaya Toribami defeated Uta Takami with the Bird Cage (6:13).
2. Hyper Misao defeated Chika Nanase with the Chickenwing Face Lock (9:07).
3. Raku & Pom Harajuku (w/ Akabe) defeated HIMAWARI & Ren Konatsu (w/ Kappa Green) when Harajuku pinned Konatsu with the Pom de Justice (9:35).
4. 3 Way Match: Miu Watanabe defeated Mahiro Kiryu and Toga when Watanabe pinned Kiryu with the Tear Drop (9:47).
5. Aja Kong, Suzume & Shino Suzuki defeated Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Kira Summer when Kong pinned Summer with a Lariat (11:02).
6. Mizuki defeated Mifu Ashida with the Cutie Special (10:19).
7. Arisu Endo & Yuki Arai defeated Miyu Yamashita & Haru Kazashiro when Endo pinned Kazashiro with the Ju no Okite (12:43).

The annual homecoming for Arisu Endo was almost spoiled by Miyu Yamashita & Haru Kazashiro. The team almost beat Endo in front of her hometown using a High Kick followed by a Low Cross Body. Yuki Arai broke the pin and ducked Yamashita’s Skull Kick to throw her away by using the Full Nelson Buster. That gave Endo space to get her second wind and counter Kazashiro’s Fisherman Suplex into the Waterwheel Drop. From there she used a Super Kick and then the Ju no Okite to win the match. For winning the match Endo & Arai received a year’s worth of “ultra luxury” amenity kits from the main event sponsor. Arai said she is grateful for everyone’s support now that Tokyo Joshi Pro’s annual visit to Aizuwakamatsu City reached its fourth year. She also thanked her parents who were both in attendance. Arai mentioned today was the first time she and Arai teamed together as a normal tag team. She felt moved by the homey atmosphere from the moment Endo made her entrance. Endo told reporters backstage that she is now fully charged up to win the International Princess Title at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” next weekend.

Miu Watanabe is feeling like such a Cinderella lately that her shoe fell off backstage after her post-match interview and she left it behind.

Match #3 briefly turned into a mascot race outside the ring.

KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles Vacated, Arisu Is 10000 Days Old, Weekend Cards Ahead

September 12, 2025

I lost track of the schedule and thought today’s show was happening tomorrow. I best get this done fast because the show is on now!

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU ~EXTRA TIME~”, 12/09/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Takeshi Masada
2. Akito, Soma Takao & Rukiya Vs Daichi Sato, Yuki Ishida & Hinata Kasai
3. Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs To-y, Yuya Koroku & Kazuma Sumi

6. Enter Sandman Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs Chris Brookes Vs KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Antonio Honda

Sorry Yukio Naya, I know it’s your anniversary and all but “Enter Sandman” is “Enter Sandman”, you know. Also makes sense to have that match close the show because it’s going to cause a mess inside Shinjuku FACE.

Kazuki Hirata at this show must choose who he will defend the KO-D Openweight Title against at Korakuen Hall on 28th September.

The contract signing for the next DDT Extreme Title defence will take place before the show. To-y will reveal the match rules to Ilusion during it.

Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. MJ Paul Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Iino, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Ryuto Vs Tomoya, Yuya Koroku & Hinata Kasai

DDT “SUMIRE MELTY LOVE 2025”, 15/09/2025
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs Danshoku Dieno, Ryuto & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: To-y, Tomoya & Noriyuki Yoshida Vs Yukio Naya, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Hinata Kasai

Three shows this weekend is surely going to shake up the current Right To Challenge holders. Right now the Arm Covers are being held by Yuki Ishida (Green), Hideki Okatani (Blue) and Yuki Iino (Red).

GANBARE☆PRO “SPECIAL MATCH”, 20/09/2025
Saitama Boat Race Toda

1. Yuna Manase, YuuRI & Banny Oikawa Vs Kyoko Inoue, Sumika Yanagawa & Misa Kagura
2. Keisuke Ishii & Shota Kawakami Vs Mizuki Watase & Sentaro Motoshima
3. Yumehito Imanari & Seiya Morohashi Vs Gota Ihashi & Jake Braddock
4. Tatsuhito Taikawa, Choun Shiryu & Tyson Maeguchi Vs Shinichiro Tominaga, PSYCHO & Takuya Wada
5. Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Ken Ohka & Munetatsu Nakamura

It’s soon time for another day at the boat races. Ganbare☆Pro will be hosting matches throughout the day in between the races with some guests and other wrestlers making first time appearances. Minoru Suzuki and Kyoko Inoue are the big names to draw in spectators.

This is probably just a mistranslation on GanPro’s end but I’m confused over one of the wrestlers appearing in Match #3. On the promotional material it looks like Jake Braddock, an American independent wrestler who has been based in Japan for the last couple of years. However GanPro are calling him Jack Bulldog on the match image and have his name written as ジェイク・ブルドック instead of ジェーク・ブラドック. The latter is what the other promotions who book him use (GanPro have also photoshopped his tattoos away). For the moment I’ll just treat it an inconsistent thing and continue writing the name Jake Braddock until this gets cleared up.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ITABASHI LEGEND”, 23/09/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. Miu Watanabe, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs Raku, Arisu Endo & Kira Summer

The Garafes idol concerts that usually happen in Ueno Park are now holding one inside the TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi. Since the wrestling ring in there is permanently installed that means it won’t be moved so Tokyo Joshi Pro decided they can use it to host a wrestling match since The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) are going to perform there anyway. Arisu Endo and Kira Summer get to join in the fun.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2025 ~3 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 28/09/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi
2. DDT Universal Title: Minoru Suzuki (c) Vs Takeshi Masada
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs X

It was announced on Wednesday that Daisuke Sasaki vacated the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on behalf of DAMNATION T.A because of his fractured rib injury. DDT decided the next champions will be crowned on 28th September. Hideki Okatani & Ilusion get the chance to reclaim the belts with MJ Paul filling in for the injured Sasaki. Their oppoenents will be Yuki Ueno & To-y along with the anticipated return of Kaisei Takechi! This will be the first title match for DDT’s new star as he continues his alliance with The 37KAMIINA.

Yuu’s Last DDT & TJPW Matches, FUMA’s Homecoming Show

September 9, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “I WANT TO SAVE EVERYONE WITH A SMILE ~ ARISU’S AIZUWAKAMATSU GRAND MARCH”, 13/09/2025
Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu City Tsurugajo Gymnasium

1. 3 Way Match: Miu Watanabe Vs Mahiro Kiryu Vs Toga
2. Raku & Pom Harajuku (w/ Akabe) Vs HIMAWARI & Ren Konatsu (w/ Kappa Green)
3. Kaya Toribami Vs Uta Takami
4. Hyper Misao Vs Chika Nanase
5. Mizuki Vs Mifu Ashida
6. Aja Kong, Suzume & Shino Suzuki Vs Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Kira Summer
7. Arisu Endo & Yuki Arai Vs Miyu Yamashita & Haru Kazashiro

On Sunday’s second show Wakana Uehara had three of her teeth broken after taking the Kingslayer knee strike from Hyper Misao. She will be unable to wrestle on this Saturday’s show so while she is gone to get her teeth fixed, Misao will now face Chika Nanase instead. The match Nanase was originally booked for has been changed to a 3 Way Match without her.

DDT “KIRANAH BBQ ROJO PRO WRESTLING 2025 ~ MEAT! BEER! HARVEST FESTIVAL!~”, 17/09/2025
Tokyo Kiranah Garden Toyosu

1. Falls Count Anywhere 5 Way Tag Match: Yukio Naya & Yuya Koroku Vs MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuki Ueno & Kazuma Sumi Vs Chihiro Hashimoto & Yuu

An extra team has been added to the BBQ Pro Wrestling match. Yuu will be retiring at the end of the year but before she does she wants to take part in one of DDT’s Falls Count Anywhere matches. A deal was made and Sendai Girls are sending over Team 200kg for the match, so Yuu will have Chihiro Hashimoto by her side!

DDT “OCHANOKO FESTIVAL”, 21/09/2025
Shizuoka Grandship Exchange Hall

1. Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Hinata Kasai

5. Special Single Match: Yukio Naya Vs Yuya Koroku
6. Special Tag Team Match: Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda Vs Danshoku Dieno & Akito

The match placement for the card has not been decided yet other than the main event. Kazuki Hirata now has some backup in the form of Danshoku Dieno and Antonio Honda. Will Akito defend him from wrestlers cashing in their title shots too?

The current Right To Challenge Arm Cover holders are Yuki Ishida (Green), Hideki Okatani (Blue) and Yuki Iino (Red). So far Hirata has been finding different ways to avoid having to defend his KO-D Openweight Title against wrestlers cashing in their title shots. However by the time this show happens his challenger for Korakuen Hall at the end of the month will have been decided.

DDT “DRAMATIC EXPO 2025”, 23/09/2025
Osaka Namba SkyO Convention Hall

1. Hideki Okatani Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida
3. Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda Vs Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special Single Match: Akito Vs Takeshi Masada

6. Jun Akiyama 33rd Anniversary Commemoration Match ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Yuki Ueno Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Daichi Sato
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya (c) Vs To-y & Yuya Koroku

The different ways to celebrate on this show because Jun Akiyama celebrates the 33rd Anniversary of his debut match this month. The show is also happening on KANON’s birthday!

BASARA “KANRA PRO WRESTLING FESTA 2025”, 28/09/2025
Gunma Kanra Junior High School Gymnasium

5. Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano
6. FUMA & Ryuichi Sekine Vs Masato Tanaka & Daisuke Sekimoto

It’s that time of the year when BASARA goes over to FUMA’s neck of the woods. The annual Gunma show includes Ryuichi Sekine this time as Hyakusho Ikki face the strong duo of Masato Tanaka & Daisuke Sekimoto! A few other guests will be there like MAZADA. Ryota Hama and Kotaro Nasu.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’25”, 18/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Yuna Manase & Toga

The first team up of Yuna Manase & Toga has gone so well that they both want to challenge for the Princess Tag Team Titles! They will be the next in line to challenge for the belts after the Kyoraku Kyomei Vs Ober Eats title match happens at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. Manase will be making other appearances on Tokyo Joshi Pro during the month of October to build up to this match.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 19/11/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Shoko Nakajima & Miyu Yamashita Vs Yuu & Yuki Kamifuku

As mentioned above, Yuu will be retiring from pro wrestling at the end of the year. She started her career with TJPW in 2016 but left the company to go freelance in 2018. She never returned to TJPW but decided she should make one more appearance in the promotion before she calls it quits. Her one night only return puts her in a match with three wrestlers who all mean a lot to her for one reason or another: Shoko Nakajima, Miyu Yamashita and Yuki Kamifuku.

Kyoraku Kyomei Vs Ober Eats Goes Overseas, Team 100% Yuki, TOGO FAMILY

September 5, 2025

DDT “D GENERATIONS 6 ~DDT MEET & GREET & FIGHT SEPTEMBER~”, 06/09/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Six Major Single Match I: Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Six Major Single Match II: Ilusion Vs Rukiya
3. Six Major Single Match III: Ryoma Tsukamoto Vs Daichi Sato
4. Six Major Single Match IV: Hideki Okatani Vs Kazuma Sumi
5. Six Major Single Match V: To-y Vs Takeshi Masada
6. Six Major Single Match VI: Yuya Koroku Vs Yuki Ishida

A very busy weekend of shows ahead. Let’s start off with the match order for the D GENERATIONS show that will kick everything off.

The current Right To Challenge Arm Cover holders are Yuki Iino (Red), Hideki Okatani (Blue) and Yuya Koroku (Green).

DDT “YOKOHAMA BAY☆CLUTCH”, 06/09/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Naomi Yoshimura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Rukiya & Hinata Kasai
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, HARASHIMA & Yuki Ishida Vs Shigehiro Irie, Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi
3. Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs KANON, KANON & Daichi Sato
4. Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Jun Akiyama Vs Yuki Ueno, To-y & Yuya Koroku
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Shinya Aoki Vs Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada
6. Special 3 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda

The card has been changed around a bit because Akito has aggravated an old injury of his and will not be at the show tomorrow. Tomomitsu Matsunaga will come in to take his place.

A big task awaits for Takeshi Masada. It’s bad enough he pissed off Minoru Suzuki when he challenged him for the DDT Universal Title but before that match happens he also has to deal with Shinya Aoki in the meantime.

Yuki Iino will be hold an emergency press conference at the show tomorrow. I don’t expect the news to be drastic like him leaving the company anytime soon just because he’s already in the middle of a storyline and holds a few prizes that DDT would need take off of him if he was to leave for somewhere else. Maybe he just wants to announce when he is cashing in his title shot.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU ~EXTRA TIME~”, 12/09/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Akito, Soma Takao & Rukiya Vs Daichi Sato, Yuki Ishida & Hinata Kasai
2. Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs To-y, Yuya Koroku & Kazuma Sumi
3. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Takeshi Masada
4. Our LariPro ’25: HARASHIMA, Keisuke Ishii & MAO Vs Yuki Ueno, Toru Owashi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
5. Enter Sandman Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs Chris Brookes Vs KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Antonio Honda
6. Yukio Naya 8th Anniversary ~ Special Tag Match: Yukio Naya & Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yuki Iino & Jun Akiyama

The addition of KANON to the Enter Sandman Match also means KIMIHIRO will be getting involved too. If there was ever a time for someone to try rapping over Metallica, this would be it.

Another match where Masada has to fight Aoki. That better sharpen him up for Suzuki pretty good.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “I WANT TO SAVE EVERYONE WITH A SMILE ~ ARISU’S AIZUWAKAMATSU GRAND MARCH”, 13/09/2025
Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu City Tsurugajo Gymnasium

1. Raku & Pom Harajuku (w/ Akabe) Vs HIMAWARI & Ren Konatsu (w/ Kappa Green)
2. Kaya Toribami Vs Uta Takami
3. Hyper Misao Vs Wakana Uehara
4. Miu Watanabe & Toga Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Chika Nanase
5. Mizuki Vs Mifu Ashida
6. Aja Kong, Suzume & Shino Suzuki Vs Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Kira Summer
7. Arisu Endo & Yuki Arai Vs Miyu Yamashita & Haru Kazashiro

On the same day this show happens, Shoko Nakajima and Yuki Kamifuku will be wrestling each other for the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title over in America. When MLW made the decision to book that match, Tokyo Joshi Pro came up with an idea to have the other halves Kyoraku Kyomei and Ober Eats face each other back in Japan. That means Hyper Misao and Wakana Uehara are going to clash one on one in an international buildup for the Princess Tag Team Titles!

One of the novelties that happen when TJPW come to Arisu Endo’s hometown is the local mascots get involved in the show. Akabe and Kappa Green have both featured on these shows in the past but never at the same time. Until next weekend that is.

DDT “SUMIRE SEPTEMBER LOVE 2025”, 14/09/2025
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. MJ Paul Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Iino, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Ryuto Vs Tomoya, Yuya Koroku & Hinata Kasai
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Naya & Yuki Ishida Vs Jun Akiyama, Noriyuki Yoshida & Daichi Sato
4. Special 3 Way Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno Vs MAO & KANON Vs Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada
5. Sapporo Specialty Trial Of Two Single Matches Again – Round 1!: Kazuki Hirata Vs Akito
6. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Hideki Okatani
7. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Ilusion

The Sapporo Specialty Trial has become more important now that Kazuki Hirata is the KO-D Openweight Champion. It looks like Akito will be in good shape by the time these two matches take place.

DDT “SUMIRE MELTY LOVE 2025”, 15/09/2025
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. Hideki Okatani, Ilusion & MJ Paul Vs Danshoku Dieno, Ryuto & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: To-y, Tomoya & Noriyuki Yoshida Vs Yukio Naya, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Hinata Kasai
3. Sapporo Specialty Trial Of Two Single Matches Again – Round 2!: Akito Vs Kazuki Hirata
4. Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON Vs HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku
5. Special Single Match: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Daichi Sato
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Iino, Yuki Ueno & Yuki Ishida Vs Jun Akiyama, Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada

TJPW isn’t the only place to have a trio of Yuki’s teaming together. DDT can do that too. Behold… Team 100% Yuki!

BASARA “BASARA 288 ~UTAGE~”, 17/09/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA Vs Daiki Shimomura & Lil’ Kraken
2. Ryota Nakatsu, Daichi Kazato & Guts Ishijima Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Masato Kamino & Tsutomu Oosugi
3. Takeru Inoue Vs Tomoki Hatano
4. Takato Nakano Vs Gouma Ryu
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda (c) Vs SAGAT & Minoru Fujita

Preparations for the upcoming Iron Fist Tag Tournament are in full gear at the next BASARA show. Takeru Inoue and Tomoki Hatano will be teaming up for the tournament but they will wrestle each other here first. Several other teams will be in action too.

At the last show Masato Kamino teamed up with WizRYU under a mask as Body Slam Machine. Now Gouma Ryu had nothing to do with that but the new unit is named after him so he better be careful if Takato Nakano thinks he is taking away his Aijin Tag partner.

Daichi Kazato gets his wish to team up with Guts Ishijima. His tournament partner Ryota Nakatsu is on the team too so at least there is someone normal there for Ishijima to get along with.

DDT “CHARISMANIAxMANIAxMANIA”, 02/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. TOGO FAMILY Vs DDT: Dick Togo, Yasu Urano, KUBITO & Diego Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno, HARASHIMA & Akito
2. Daisuke Sasaki 20th Anniversary Match: Daisuke Sasaki & El Desperado Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Antonio Honda

At the moment it’s unclear is Daisuke Sasaki’s rib injury will force him out of his own show. But at least on the undercard we get Dick Togo summoning several of his proteges together for a big tag match against DDT’s all stars. Yasu Urano, KUBITO & Diego all have Togo to thank for various part of their wrestling careers.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025”, 03/11/2025
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Sanshiro Takagi Return Match – Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Kaisei Takechi Vs X & X
3. Dramatic Dream Match: Zack Sabre Jr. Vs Chris Brookes

DDT promised this week that a special guest will be at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” and they revealed it to be Tetsuya Endo. He’ll be returning to DDT for one night only before going back to finish his year long excursion at NOAH.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ARISU ENDO LOCAL TRIUMPH 2024” Results

September 14, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ARISU ENDO LOCAL TRIUMPH 2024”, 14/09/2024
Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu City Tsurugajo Gymnasium
462 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Toga defeated Uta Takami with the Rock Bottom (5:01).
2. Pom Harajuku defeated Chika Nanase with the Pom de Justice (5:19).
3. Yoshiko Hasegawa & Runa Okubo defeated Yuki Aino & Shino Suzuki when Hasegawa submitted Suzuki with the Muffler Hold (8:10).
4. Moka Miyamoto defeated Wakana Uehara with the Korokan (6:45).
5. Miu Watanabe & HIMAWARI defeated Mizuki & Haru Kazashiro when Watanabe submitted Kazashiro with the Reverse Paradox (12:24).
6. Aja Kong & Raku defeated Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu when Kong pinned Kiryu with the 2nd Rope Diving Elbow Drop (11:57).
7. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami when Endo pinned Toribami with the Ju no Okite (13:23).

Arisu Endo received a hero’s welcome for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s return to Aizuwakamatsu. She entered the main event accompanied by banner wavers as well as Akabe the local mascot. Suzume also got a little bit of love too by being Endo’s tag team partner. The match also gave Daisy Monkey one last chance to prepare for 121000000 because Miyu Yamashita was one of her opponents. She was teaming with Kaya Toribami but the pairing wasn’t strong enough. Daisy Monkey got rid of Yamashita with a Double Team Facecrusher and Endo went on to pin Toribami with the Ju no Okite. Endo & Suzume each received 30kg of locally grown rice as their prize for winning the main event.

After the match Endo said she is happy because every time TJPW comes to her hometown they draw more fans and move up to bigger venues. She also lived up to her promise of wrestling in Aizuwakamatsu as a champion. Suzume is happy they were able to make that dream come true together. Yamashita enjoyed the match despite the result not going her way. She isn’t mad at Toribami for losing and in fact would like to have matches with her more often. Later backstage a reporter asked Yamashita if she’s been in contact with Maki Itoh while her tag partner is in America? She hasn’t but doesn’t need to because they can communicate to each other from their hearts. She thinks Itoh would tell her she did a great job today and she knows Itoh is doing her best in America.

What an unstoppable force Aja Kong & Raku turned out to be! Both of them took a nap in the ring when the match began then performed the Oyasumi Express together. Raku also used her pillow as a weapon against Rika Tatsumi during the same time Aja Kong attacked Mahiro Kiryu with the steel can.

The next time Kong shows up in TJPW she will be teaming with Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku. To prepare for this Harajuku decided the best thing to do is learn how to hide so Kong & Max won’t use her as a projectile against their opponents. She practiced it today by running away from Chika Nanase and using Akabe the mascot as an obstacle while Nanase chased after her.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 20/09/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno & Keigo Nakamura
2. Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuki Ishida
3. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami, KANON & MJ Paul Vs HARASHIMA, Soma Takao, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special Single Match: Akito Vs Kazuki Hirata
5. Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo Vs To-y
6. Special Single Match: Yuki Iino Vs Makoto Oishi
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada (c) Vs MAO & Shunma Katsumata

Poor Takeshi Masada still isn’t getting much respect despite being one half of the KO-D Tag Team Champions. At the contract signing for this title match ShunMao called CDK their rivals instead of SCHADENFREUDE International and Chris Brookes even agreed with that notion. On the bright side Brookes is advising Masada to wrestle the match in their own unique way. That matters to his development just as much as winning or losing.

Makoto Oishi’s farewell tour brings him over to Yuki Ueno for what could be their last singles match together.

If To-y is still holding his Right To Challenge Shield by the time this show happens then Tetsuya Endo has a big chance to win it and set up another shot at Aoki for the KO-D Title. Akito could also possibly risk his Shield in a match against Kazuki Hirata. Meanwhile Masahiro Takanashi is laying low and hiding away in multi-man tag matches where the risk of directly losing a fall is much much lower.

Ryuichi “Fire” Kawakami is not running away from DDT after losing to Naya. He lost clean to Naya when they finally faced each other in a singles match but they will meet again in an 8-Man Tag Match here.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”, 22/09/2024
Chiba Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall

1. Runa Okubo Vs Haru Kazashiro
2. Yoshiko Hasegawa, Kaya Toribami & HIMAWARI Vs Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Uta Takami
3. Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Wakana Uehara & Toga
4. Ram Kaichow Vs Raku
5. Aja Kong, Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku Vs Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Shino Suzuki
*Special Referee: Shiori Aoki.
6. Xia Zhao & Mizuki Vs Yuki Kamifuku & VENY
7. Emi Sakura Vs Shoko Nakajima
8. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Suzume & Arisu Endo (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Ryo Mizunami

There was a contract signing held today for Yuki Arai and Moka Miyamoto to promote the International Princess Title match. Miyamoto spoke about always valuing the spirit of harmony and how she incorporates Japanese elements into her wrestling. That is how she created the Korokan move during her first attempt to win the IP Title in 2022. So her goal if she becomes the champion is to spread those feelings across the world. Arai would like to see Miyamoto win the title if the champion was somebody else but she will defend it to the death against her. She also wants to start defending the title overseas, especially if it helps SKE48 with their efforts to grow internationally. If Arai beats Miyamoto then she will hold the record for most IP Title defences with 5 wins. She wants to be proud of her title reign and hopes this match will be memorable for reasons more than just her breaking the record.

BASARA “BASARA 257 ~HIEN~”, 24/09/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. KUBITO Vs Takeru Inoue
2. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Banana Senga & Yuki Kanzaki
3. Ryota Nakatsu & Lil’ Kraken Vs Yumehito Imanari & Mizuki Watase
4. Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Minoru Fujita Vs Guts Ishijima, Hideyoshi Kamitani & Kuma Arashi
5. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine

The UWA World Tag Team Titles have been used mainly in Big Japan for the past few years and belonged to Michinoku Pro before that. Thanks to Aijin Tag winning the belts this week the championship is now being defended over to BASARA. It didn’t take long for them to find challengers because Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine quickly decided they wanted a title shot after they saw Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino’s victory.

The “HIEN” branding is bringing in more fresh faces to BASARA. Ganbare☆Pro are sending over Yumehito Imanari & Mizuki Watase as a tag team. There is also a mixture of outside talent being put together as Guts Ishijima, Hideyoshi Kamitani & Kuma Arashi take on the BASARA home team. There’s even a tag match with Speed Of Sounds on opposite sides to freshen up the undercard.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 ~ 3 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 29/09/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuya Koroku Vs Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & To-y
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Antonio Honda, Yuki Ishida & Ilusion
3. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & HARASHIMA Vs Jun Akiyama & Keigo Nakamura
4. Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Makoto Oishi
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Kaisei Takeshi Vs Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Masahiro Takanashi
6. DDT Extreme Title – IPPON Lighttube Tag Team Death Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) & Kazuma Sumi Vs Akito & Yuni
7. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs Yukio Naya

DDT got Kaisei Takeshi to sell out a show so a full Korakuen Hall has to watch Danshoku Dieno Vs Makoto Oishi. I kind of have to respect the carniness of it all.

Not This Weekend But The Next Weekend

September 5, 2024

DDT “TETSUYA ENDO LOCAL TRIUMPH! DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SHIROISHI”, 14/09/2024
Miyagi Shiroishi White Cube

1. Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Ilusion Vs Yukio Naya, Akito & To-y
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & Kazuma Sumi
3. Yuki Iino Vs Yuki Ishida
4. Jun Akiyama Vs Yuya Koroku
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Gorgeous Matsuno & Keigo Nakamura Vs HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata
6. Shiroishi Specialty Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo Vs Makoto Oishi

The main event has more going on for it after yesterday’s show. Makoto Oishi lost to Shinya Aoki while Tetsuya Endo watched from a distance. Oishi hopes learned at least something from it that he can use in this weekend’s KO-D Openweight Title match with Aoki. A few days later Endo and Oishi will face each other for Endo’s homecoming match. It’s a match that already means a lot to both of them and it could mean a little more if Endo goes into it as the new KO-D Champion.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ARISU ENDO LOCAL TRIUMPH 2024”, 14/09/2024
Fukushima Aizuwakamatsu City Tsurugajo Gymnasium

1. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku Vs Shino Suzuki Vs Chika Nanase
2. Toga Vs Uta Takami
3. Yuki Aino & Kira Summer Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa & Runa Okubo
4. Moka Miyamoto Vs Wakana Uehara
5. Miu Watanabe & HIMAWARI Vs Mizuki & Haru Kazashiro
6. Aja Kong & Raku Vs Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu
7. Arisu Endo & Suzume Vs Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami

We’ll find out this weekend if Arisu Endo will make it to Aizuwakamatsu City as a double champion. Even if she doesn’t it will still be Daisy Monkey in the main event facing Miyu Yamashita in a non-title preview for “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”. Yamashita will be without Maki Itoh because Itoh will be back in America for GCW by that point. Kaya Toribami is going to be Yamashita’s partner instead.

Nice to see Aja Kong and Raku be put together as a team again.

Also missing the show due to overseas obligations are Shoko Nakajima and Yuki Kamifuku. Nakajima will be in America that weekend on a Deadlock Pro show while Kamifuku is busy defending the Queen Of Asia Title in China for Middle Kingdom Wrestling.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SAPPORO – DAY 1”, 15/09/2024
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. Kazuki Hirata Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Yukio Naya Vs Yuya Koroku
3. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Noriyuki Yoshida & Yuki Ishida
4. Jun Akiyama, Tomoya & Danshoku Dieno Vs Chris Brookes, Akito & Ilusion
5. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs Makoro Oishi
6. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & HARASHIMA Vs MAO & Keigo Nakamura
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y

For some reason DDT is still advertising Match #6 as a 6-Man Tag even though it only has four people written down on the lineup, two versus two. It has to be a typo.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 TOUR IN SAPPORO – DAY 2”, 16/09/2024
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza

1. Daisuke Sasaki & KANON Vs Yuki Ishida & Ilusion
2. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Makoto Oishi Vs Tomoya, Akito & Kazuki Hirata
3. Special Tag Match: Jun Akiyama & Noriyuki Yoshida Vs Yuki Ueno & Keigo Nakamura
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs HARASHIMA, Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi
5. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Yuya Koroku
6. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes Vs Danshoku Dieno

One of Noriyuki Yoshida’s matches for DDT’s weekend in Sapporo has him teaming with Jun Akiyama again. It’s pretty much an annual tradition at this point given the old NOAH connection between the two.

Some of the undercard matches have been changed around. The trio of Tomoya, Akito & Kazuki Hirata are no longer facing DAMNATION T.A. Their new opponents are Endo, Yuki Iino & Oishi. The DAMNATION T.A change is because MJ Paul is no longer on the card. He was pulled from yesterday’s meet and greet after suffering food poisoning. Apparently he’s been eating too much raw meat from the wild animals he hunts down.
