TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN KOFU”, 21/06/2025
Yamanashi Kose Sports Park Gymnasium Sub-Arena (Kofu City)
117 Fans

-. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko by Forfeit.
1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Haru Kazashiro defeated Ren Konatsu with the Fisherman Suplex (6:51).
2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Shino Suzuki defeated Uta Takami with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex (7:34).
3. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase with the Bird Cage (7:31).
4. Moka Miyamoto & HIMAWARI defeated Maki Itoh & Ivy Steele when Miyamoto submitted Steele with the Rashomon (9:35).
5. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kira Summer when Nakajima pinned Summer with the Northern Lights Suplex (12:14).
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Rika Tatsumi & Toga when Kamifuku pinned Toga with the Famouser (9:48).
7. Mizuki, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Diving Foot Stomp (13:43).

Since Haruna Neko was injured and unable to take part in her own homecoming show, some of the other wrestlers wanted to make her feel part of the main event. Pom Harajuku loudly congratulated her for the hometown show and then led Miu Watanabe & Raku in doing cat-like movements to try and attack the other team. That didn’t work and instead Mizuki pulled off one of Harajuku’s shoes and threw it over to the table Neko was sitting at. Mizuki & Daisy Monkey then brought their opponents over to Neko so she could scratch all of their faces. Harajuku tried to escape the punishment but was caught and given extra scratches. Later Harajuku tried to hit Mizuki with her shoe but missed and knocked out Yukinori Matsui instead. Watanabe held Mizuki in a Head Lock and Harujuku swung her shoe again but Mizuki again dodged it and Watanabe got hit instead. Mizuki grabbed the shoe and threw it away while Suzume & Arisu Endo cleared the ring of their opponents. That left the ring clear for Mizuki to pin Harajuku with the Diving Foot Stomp. Neko joined the winning team to close out the show with them.

Match #5 featured the return of both Hyper Misao and Kira Summer so Misao wanted to fight fair against Summer. However when they shook hands to start the match it ended up being an ambush by Misao’s team. Kyoraku Kyomei then used the ring apron on the outside to wrap up Summer in the corner. The only problem is they also caught their own partner Mahiro Kiryu in the process. When the two wrestlers were freed, Kiryu then suddenly found herself on her own fighting against Summer, Yuki Aino & Yoshiko Hasegawa. She found time to apologise for getting caught in the trap. Misao later blinded Summer with a spray can and wiped out the other two with the I Am A Hero. Shoko Nakajima finished things off by pinning Summer with the Northern Lights Suplex.

Three qualifying matches in the Tokyo Princess Cup preliminary league took place on the undercard. Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase by submission with the Bird Cage. She said she needed to take every opening Nanase gave her in order to win today. Nanase said she needs to develop more attacks and power beyond what her seniors expect from her. Shino Suzuki used a Belly-To-Belly Suplex to beat Uta Takami in a first ever singles meeting between the two. Shino admits she envies Takami for her cheerfulness and natural talent but she was able to beat her today because she worked hard. She’s thankful for Takami being a part of The Up Up Girls because she pushes Suzuki to improve. Takami also shares the same gratitude towards Suzuki. Finally, Haru Kazashiro used the Fisherman Suplex to pin Ren Konatsu. This summer is Kazashiro’s last as a high school student so she wants to grab every chance she can and qualify for the Princess Cup. Konatsu didn’t even expect she would get a chance to qualify because she only debuted this month. She is fired up to try and get her first win by herself but felt the difference in experience between her and Kazashiro, even if it’s only by two years.

Neko got to give a speech during the show and get a ring entrance filled with streamers thrown her way. She thanked everyone for attending the show and explained she wasn’t able to compete because of her knee injury (she would have faced Pom Harajuku in a Princess Cup qualifier today if she could).

5. Mahiro Kiryu & Toga defeated Shoko Nakajima & Chika Nanase when Kiryu pinned Nanase with the Spinebuster (10:45).
6. Mizuki & Suzume (w/ Sayuri Namba) defeated RIKADEVIL & YUKIDEVIL (/w TORIDEVIL) when Mizuki pinned YUKIDEVIL with the Cutie Special (14:23).

In just over one week’s time Sayuri Namba will be graduating from Tokyo Joshi Pro and starting a new chapter of her life in Canada. Before that could happen she got to put together her own special show in order to make some of her dreams come true. But her dreams became under threat when a mystery trio known as BABYDEVIL suddenly emerged promising to crash her show. They weren’t messing because RIKADEVIL was armed with a whip and YUKIDEVIL carried a baseball bat with her. It was up to Mizuki & Suzume to save the day while Namba cheered them on but there was even more trouble caused by TORIDEVIL who was interfering from ringside. The group even got their hands on Namba a couple of times and didn’t hesitate to put her in harm’s way. With BABYDEVIL in complete control, Namba got on the microphone and told everyone she wants to help but she cannot fight pro wrestlers. What she can do though is call out the names of wrestlers with all of her heart to push them forward. With all her might she called out the names of Mizuki and Suzume, giving them the motivation needed to fight back. They caused BABYMETAL to misfire their attacks and hit each other by accident and then wiped them out with Cross Body Blocks. Mizuki then got the pinfall on YUKIDEVIL with the Cutie Special.

Mizuki thanked Namba for all she did to give her team the courage to stand up no matter how scary the situation had gotten. Namba always had the most respect for the wrestlers in TJPW and in return they had the same for her. Suzume said just having Namba around is enough to make her feel safe. She never thought the day would come where they would fight together but she’s happy it happened today. Namba is sure the wrestlers have felt a thousand times more pain than she did today but something about being in the ring today made her feel it even more. With only two more shows left she isn’t going to cry until the end. The moisture coming from her eyes is only sweat.

One of Namba’s dreams was to be a Round Girl one more time so she booked Kazuki Hirata to fight Hideki Sekine in a match that is supposed to have three minute rounds. Sekine ended up choking out Hirata in under 30 seconds. This happened the last time Namba was a Round Girl and she was furious. She told Hirata he hadn’t learned a thing since last time and also told Sekine to read the room. The fight restarted and they purposely paced themselves so a round could end and Namba could do her spot. In the 2nd Round Sekine picked up the Hirata GO! glasses but didn’t understand what they were for so he handed them over to Yukinori Matsui. Namba got angry again, telling Sekine it’s no fun to win normally so he should wear the glasses and dance! Sekine tried but then Namba scolded him for being bad at dancing. Hirata got fed up with Namba’s attitude and decided to side with Sekine and go after her. But Namba ended up slapping everyone to the mat and decided to wear the glasses and dance by herself. The match continued in the background and by the time Namba’s dance had finished, Sekine had again choked out Hirata with a Sleeper Hold.

Namba’s other dream was to announce her high school classmate LEONA for a match so she booked him to take on Antonio Honda. LEONA blocked Gongitsune and hit Honda with one of his own before twisting him over with a Dragon Screw and making him give up to the Figure 4 Leg Lock. After the match LEONA introduced himself to the TJPW audience and explained his history with Namba. He said due to Tatsumi Fujinami being his father and Dradition being a promotion with not a lot of young wrestlers involved, he always felt like he was alone in the pro wrestling industry. So when he found out Namba became a ring announcer in TJPW and another acquaintance of theirs got a job with Shukan Puroresu he was really happy to finally have some friends from his generation working in the same industry. LEONA told Namba that the next time they meet no matter what ring it is in he wants her to call his introduction again.

Part of the show’s selling point was seeing several TJPW wrestlers each take the role of ring announcer for a match while wearing one of Namba’s outfits from over the years. Arisu Endo called Match #1, Namba called Match #2, Raku called Match #3, Pom Harajuku called Match #4, Yuki Arai called Match #5 and Miu Watanabe called the main event. They all got to learn firsthand just how hard Namba’s job is.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 2” Results

June 7, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 2”, 07/06/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
307 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: HIMAWARI defeated Mifu Ashida with the Sunflower Tempest (8:17).
2. Mahiro Kiryu & Shino Suzuki defeated Maki Itoh & Chika Nanase when Kiryu pinned Nanase with the Spinebuster (9:12).

6. MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) defeated Kaya Toribami with the Diving Senton (16:53).
*V1 for Shoko Nakajima.

Close friends Shoko Nakajima and Kaya Toribami were given the headline spot on today’s show to fight each other for the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title. An early attack involving the ring post hurt Nakajima’s left arm and gave Toribami a target to lock onto. Nakajima had to struggle to get a rope break from the Birds Cage and still had the quick pace to turn things around with a Topé Con Hilo. Toribami matched her agility by taking a Springboard Hurricanrana and cartwheeling through it to land on her feet but when she went to the middle rope to do the Sento Choryu, Nakajima used the 619 to trip her off. Toribami kept fighting to stay in the match until Nakajima dropped her with the Double Arm DDT and hit the Diving Senton for the victory. Due to MLW’s convoluted taping and broadcast schedules this might be considered her first official successful title defence. The other one she had in America last month isn’t airing until tonight on MLW’s Youtube channel and is considered a separate show in kayfabe.

After the match Nakajima said she wished it last longer because she was having so much fun fighting Toribami. She also wants more time and energy to become an even stronger champion. After shaking Toribami’s hand and letting her leave the ring, Nakajima then called her tag team partner Hyper Misao to get in. Misao said she is now motivated to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles 100 times with Nakajima. However Kyoraku Kyomei’s speech was suddenly interrupted by Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe. The two of them got in the ring armed with sasumata poles and used them to trap Kyoraku Kyomei in the centre of the ring. Daydream weren’t going to let them go until they agreed to give them a shot at the Princess Tag Titles! Nakajima was confused because she remembers Tatsumi said Daydream had split up last July. Tatsumi denied that claim (she did say at the time she was done teaming with Watanabe but Watanabe never agreed to the split). Nakajima accepted the challenge because Kyoraku Kyomei wants to beat Daydream anyway. They all agreed to have the match at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” on 21st July. Backstage Tatsumi continued to deny to reporters that she said Daydream had disbanded last summer. Watanabe suggested to her they should use the sasmata poles on the reporters too.

Backstage Toribami said she was disappointed she couldn’t win her first challenge for a championship. She did a lot of mental training to prepare for it and she thinks it worked out well for her but Nakajima was just too strong for her. She now wants to build up towards another title match so next time she can beat her friend for the belt. Nakajima said she is not sure if she will be travelling to America for MLW in August but she thinks she will be there almost every month during the fall season. She is looking forward to facing new opponents and plans to bring other wrestlers from Tokyo Joshi Pro with her so American wrestling fans can learn that TJPW has many wrestlers who are as good as she is.

A familiar contender has emerged for the International Princess Title after the champion was unexpectedly beaten in a tag match. Moka Miyamoto stunned Suzume with the Zero Fighter Kick and then pinned the champ with the Korokan. She told Suzume that she has challenged for the IP Title twice before and was never able to win it. She wants a third chance to win the title she has wanted for so long and for it to happen in a big venue like Ota Ward Gymnasium. She pointed out that it was only champions who are automatically included in this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup which means she has to qualify for it. The tournament is taking place after “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” so her goal is to win the IP Title and qualify for the tournament as a champion. Suzume said every time she defends the belt it becomes more and more important to her. It’s reached the point where she doesn’t want to let it go. But she understands Miyamoto’s feelings and agreed to give her the title shot for 21st July.

Speaking of the Princess Cup, there was only one preliminary qualifier on today’s show because Uta Takami had a fever. Her match with Shino Suzuki was postponed so the HIMAWARI Vs Mifu Ashida bout got all of the attention to themselves. Ashida got to show off more of her abilities but HIMAWARI scored the victory when she pinned her with the Sunflower Tempest. Ashida was frustrated to lose such a big opportunity that was given to her. She is dealing with the loss by calling it a lesson in how harsh pro wrestling can be. HIMAWARI is excited to be one win away from qualifying for the tournament because she missed last year’s Princess Cup by wrestling in England instead. She is a summer girl and she wants to have a great summer by making sunflowers bloom!

Hyper Misao announced her return match from injury will be on 21st June. She also announced that Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi, Raku and Mahiro Kiryu will all be a part of “HYPE! 3” taking place on 27th June.

Both Yuki Arai and Arisu Endo will be getting homecoming shows later this year. Arai’s show in Kyoto will happen on 30th August while Endo’s show in Aizuwakamatsu City will be on 13th September. Arai pointed out that Mifu Ashida is from Kyoto too so she hopes the two of them will show everyone there how much they have improved. Endo told fans that Aizuwakamatsu City is really hot in September so she wants everyone to come prepared for the heat.

6. Last One Standing 8-Woman Tag Team Elimination Match: Maki Itoh, Yuki Arai, Pom Harajuku & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Kamifuku, Yuki Aino & Jada Stone (21:20).
6a. Maki Itoh eliminated Yuki Kamifuku by Ring Out (6:46).

6c. Maki Itoh eliminated Jada Stone by Ring Out (15:17).

6e. Arisu Endo eliminated Miu Watanabe by Ring Out (18:54).
6f. Arisu Endo eliminated Yuki Aino by Ring Out (21:20).
7. Last One Standing Final Showdown: Yuki Arai defeated Arisu Endo with the Finally (2:45).

Tokyo Joshi Pro decided to try out something new to determine the No. 1 Contender for the Princess Of Princess Title. They put together an 8-Woman Elimination Tag Match with the extra caveat that the match would continue until only one woman was left standing. So if one team defeated the other and still had more than one wrestler left, they would fight each other until only one remained. Over the top rope rules were also in effect and a lot of the eliminations ended up that way. When Maki Itoh and Yuki Kamifuku both found themselves falling over the ropes and onto the apron, Itoh convinced Kamifuku to play a game of Rock Paper Scissors only to kick her to the floor when her guard was down. Pom Harajuku thought she was given a power boost by Yuki Arai but Miu Watanabe made her give up to the Canadian Backbreaker. Jada Stone was the next elimination when she climbed the top rope and Itoh then knocked her to the floor with a Headbutt. Itoh’s reign of terror was then put to an end when Watanabe & Yuki Aino knocked her off the apron with a Double Shoulder Block. Arisu Endo then pulled off a clutch of double eliminations, first using the Mt. Bandai on Watanabe to bounce her out of the ring and then Super Kicking Aino out of the ring to knock the other team out completely.

However the winning team had two people remaining: Arai and Endo. The match continued as a singles bout between them. Endo fought to put Arai in the Camel Clutch but Arai outmaneuvered her and rolled the move into a Full Nelson Buster. Endo tried her hardest to fight back but Arai stunned her with the Rookie Award and scored the pinfall by using the Finally. After the match Arai called Mizuki down to the ring so she could challenge her for the Princess Title face to face. Mizuki said she has seen Arai show many different emotions ever since her pro wrestling debut. She is happy that Arai is challenging her but warns she will show Arai just how heavy the championship is to carry. The title match will take place at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” on 21st July. Arai told the Nagoya fans that she has never main evented a wrestling show in a venue as big as Ota Ward Gymnasium before so she wants as many people in Nagoya to come see the show and support TJPW.

Backstage Arai said she was never this close to getting a Princess Title shot before. The belt has always seemed far away from her but today she got a little bit closer to it which makes her happy. She still has a long way to go but that means Mizuki has a long journey to the big show too. Arai wants to do everything she can until then to convince Mizuki that she has gotten strong enough to win the championship at Ota Ward. She admits it is a lot of pressure to say that out loud but she wants to overcome the challenge. Meanwhile Endo is reaching her wit’s end. Every time she has these crucial moments, Yuki Arai is there to beat her. Today proves that her fate is now tied to Arai. Her message to her is go win the Princess Title because then Endo will come out and challenger her for it!

Shoko Nakajima dealt a big blow to Kaya Toribami’s momentum by pinning her in their final prelim match for their upcoming title bout. She almost caused Toribami to get counted out when she hit her with a 619 while Toribami was standing outside the ring. She was able to get back in at 17 but Nakajima immediately gave her the Northern Lights Suplex for the three count. Toribami said she was beaten to a pulp today and Nakajima showed her just how high the wall is to climb. She thinks her mistake was only seeing Nakajima as a champion and not as her senior. So she will now think about how she can win. Nakajima said that ever since the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title match was announced she spent a lot of time thinking about Toribami. The positive to that was she got to enjoy wrestling their three prelim matches to the fullest. Her advice to Toribami is to do her best and dream of winning.

The debuting Ren Konatsu got to face her idol Suzume to kick off the show. She showed some agility by doing a leap frog as well as a Diving Somersault but it was the Dropkick that she used most to try and get anything on her opponent. Suzume got her to submit to a Crucifix Headscissors hold called the Hachinosu Eight Knot. She gave the new rookie a hug for her efforts after the match. Konatsu said when the match was over she was so relieved that tears filled her eyes. When she watches the match back she’ll see what she could have done better but in the moment it was fun for her. Her goal at the moment is to wrestle overseas. Suzume was happy because her start in wrestling was very similar. There is somebody in TJPW she wanted to be like and she became a pro wrestler because of it. That kind of admiration and determination are the most important things in life to her so to meet someone who looks up to her and joined TJPW feels like her dream has come true. She still has more goals to achieve so she and Konatsu can pursue their dreams together from now on.

7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) defeated Matcha & Alexis Lee when Nakajima pinned Lee with the Diving Senton (14:17).
*V2 for Kyoraku Kyomei.

Golden Week ends with Tokyo Joshi Pro resisting the SEA Storm. Kyoraku Kyomei were excited to have challengers from outside of Japan coming to fight them for the Princess Tag Team Titles. They didn’t expect Matcha & Alexis Lee to know their tricks because they jumped the champs before the champs could get the jump on them. After a quick brawl around the ring the challengers focused on Shoko Nakajima. Lee kept finding spots to bite her while Matcha German Suplexed Hyper Misao away. The two were close to victory after they gave Nakajima a Double Superplex but Misao came to the rescue hitting her signature moves to the two of them. Matcha was then taken out by Nakajima’s Topé Suicida while Misao gave Lee the Hypermi Returns. With the coast clear, Nakajima finished Lee off with the Diving Senton for a successful title defence.

Nakajima said she wants to fight them again and again because she wants to bring the tag titles to Thailand and Singapore along with the rest of the world. Misao repeated their team’s goal as champions is to experience different wrestling styles from different countries to improve themselves even more. It might be early to set up another title defence but if there is any team around the world who think they can beat Kyoraku Kyomei then Misao wants them to come over and challenge them. Matcha said every blow she took from the champions was tough but she is grateful they fought her with all of their might. Lee said the match is a big step for pro wrestling in Singapore. From now on she wants to make history and next time she and Matcha get a shot at the titles they will bring them back to their home countries.

A special 3 Way match was put together for Yuki Arai because she has never taken part in such a match before. Her two opponents were the other two Yuki’s on the TJPW roster! So when the match began everyone got “Yuki” chants, even the referee Yukinori Matsui. Arai turned down offers from both Yuki Kamifuku and Yuki Aino to team up so the two of them attacked Arai together instead. The match eventually went back to being every Yuki for herself. Aino got the better of Arai with the Bulldog Headlock but when she was getting ready to do the Venus DDT, Kamifuku jumped in and gave Aino the Reverse Famouser to steal the win. The three of them embraced after the match and all left together as Yuki Yuki Yuki. Backstage Yuki said Yuki will win next time. Yuki thought Yuki did good while Yuki thought Yuki did really good. They also all agreed that they like Yuki more than mint chocolate.

Raku still has the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title to sleep tight with tonight after she defeated Nor ‘Phoenix’ Diana in her first defence. The match began with Raku handing Diana an eye mask to help her sleep but it was just a trick to roll her up for a nearfall. Diana took control with fast paced moves including a Topé Suicida outside the ring. She then used a Shoulder Lock submission in an attempt to wear Raku down but it didn’t work. Raku fought back with Dropkicks and Poppo Chops until she got the Doctor Yellow on her opponent to get the victory. Raku said it was great to fight Diana and fell something in common with her so she has a new dream to wrestle Diana in Malaysia next time and defend her title around Asia. Diana said this will not be the last time she will be in TJPW. The Phoenix will rise again!

Takoyaki defeats Kushikatsu in the TJPW RUSH! Match! With only a 5 minute time limit in every match and 2 Count Pins needed to win everyone had to be quick to win but careful not to drop a fall. Rika Tatsumi got things off to a good start for Team Kushikatsu when she countered Uta Takami’s Koala Clutch into a Dragon Backbreaker for the first elimination. Suzume came out next and fought Tatsumi to a time limit draw which meant 1 Count Pinfalls were now in effect for overtime. Suzume tried to cradle Tatsumi but it was countered for the one count giving Tatsumi her second elimination. Arisu Endo was the one to take out Tatsumi who was too tired to make it three for three. She tricked Endo into giving her a one minute break to catch her breath only to ambush her with a Hip Attack. Endo got mad at being tricked and fought back, ultimately pinning Tatsumi with the Waterwheel Drop. Pom Harajuku wanted to sing with Endo because today is Children’s Day and they are all children. Again it was a trick to make Endo drop her guard. Endo fought back with a Neckbreaker but Harajuku reversed the pin to get the 2 Count on Endo. Next up, Harajuku and HIMAWARI fought each other using toy flags and HIMAWARI’s hair. HIMAWARI blew the flag away, dodged the Pom de Justice and pinned Harajuku with a Roll Up. She took things more seriously once Haru Kazashiro showed up. They went back and forth until the 5 minutes ran out. In overtime Kazashiro escaped from the Crab Hold and Cradled HIMAWARI for the One Count needed to eliminate her. At this point Miu Watanabe was the last one left on Team Kushikatsu and she had three opponents to beat in order to win. She eliminated Kazashiro with a Power Slam and kept Giant Swinging Shino Suzuki around and around until Suzuki gave up. That brought the match down to a final battle between Mizuki and Watanabe. Mizuki was also given a spin around in the Giant Swing but she fought back and held on until they reached the time limit. With a One Count Pinfall now needed to win the two were hesitant to make any mistakes. Mizuki ended up getting the better of Watanabe and hit the Whirling Candy out of nowhere to get the win. Team Takoyaki were rewarded with a grand prize of various Osaka desserts.

A brand new referee name Fumirin will make her debut on 11th May. She said that being a pro wrestling referee has been her dream since she was a child. She also has a background in Rakugo storytelling.

The next time TJPW will be in Osaka is on 17th August for the semi finals of the Tokyo Princess Cup.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GOLDEN WEEK FAN APPRECIATION DAY 「EAST」” Results

May 3, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GOLDEN WEEK FAN APPRECIATION DAY 「EAST」”, 03/05/2025
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube
374 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Yoshiko Hasegawa & Chika Nanase defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Hasegawa submitted Takami with the Muffler Hold (10:23).
2. Yuki Arai, Moka Miyamoto & Shino Suzuki defeated Wakana Uehara, Kira Summer & Ivy Steele when Arai submitted Steele with the Scorpion Death Lock (8:37).
3. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Rika Tatsumi & Toga when Aino pinned Toga with the Venus DDT (11:12).
4. Matcha, Alexis Lee & Nor ‘Phoenix’ Diana defeated Mizuki, Pom Harajuku & Arisu Endo when Diana pinned Harajuku with the DN (11:41).
5. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Raku defeated Yuna Manase, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Misao pinned Neko with the Hypami Returns (11:39).
6. VPW Women’s Title: Viva Van defeated Yuki Kamifuku (c) with the Japanese Ocean Cyclone Suplex (7:15)
*Yuki Kamifuku fails in V4. Viva Van becomes the 2nd VPW Women’s Champion!
7. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) defeated HIMAWARI with the Ring A Bell (15:16).
*V4 for Suzume.

Suzume is quickly catching up to the International Princess Title defence record. Today’s win over HIMAWARI is her fourth defence since becoming champion at the start of the year. She avoided HIMAWARI’s new finishing move the Sunflower Tempest and used the corner to get her opponent with a Facecrusher and then the Ring A Bell to win. HIMAWARI said she is frustrated to lose after winning the No. 1 Contendership because she gave it her all and couldn’t beat Suzume. But she thinks the experience will help her take a step forward on an emotional level. She’ll train more so next time she challenges for a title she will win it!

In the ring Suzume praised HIMAWARI for establishing her own unique style from the beginning and having everything that Suzume does not have. As IP Champion Suzume wants to make Tokyo Joshi Pro known to the world just like her seniors who paved the way for her. Yoshiko Hasegawa then entered the ring. Back when she announced her plans to retire in March she said she wanted to challenge Suzume for the IP Title. Her idea received some criticism at the time which made her reconsider. But with only a short time of her wrestling career left, Hasegawa decided to be selfish and make the challenge. She asked the fans to call her name if they will support her challenge and they did. Suzume said she would have accepted the challenge no matter what others think and she will do her best to beat her.

There is a new VPW Women’s Champion after Viva Van defeated Yuki Kamifuku. It’s been a while since the two were together and Kamifuku couldn’t help but exclaim how much Van’s strikes hurt her. Kamifuku found her rhythm and got a nearfall from doing a Superplex followed by a Reverse Famouser. But Van ended up countering the regular Famouser and dropped Kamifuku with the Japanese Ocean Cyclone Suplex for the three count. Van said she’s been fighting all her life and didn’t come back to TJPW just to be someone else’s shadow. She won this championship for Vietnam and has become the first Vietnamese wrestler to win a title in Japan. Kamifuku said it is great to see an Asian girl like Van working hard so even though she isn’t happy she lost, she feels relieved to see the belt is now in Van’s care. It’s the end of the Asian Double Crown but Kamifuku still holds the Queen Of Asia Title. She hopes she is the catalyst of TJPW bringing in wrestlers from across the Southeast Asian region more often.

Kyoraku Kyomei have an important Princess Tag Team Titles defence coming up so they realized the best way to conserve their energy is to sleep more often. They got Raku to bring a blanket to the ring for the three of them to sleep under in the ring but it was all a trap so they could use it as a weapon on Yuna Manase. But Manase used her power to break free and Mahiro Kiryu had to apologise on their behalf for bringing the blanket into the ring. Manase helped Haruna Neko to Power Bomb Hyper Misao but Shoko Nakajima broke the pin. Raku got Manase & Kiryu out of the ring so Nakajima could dive onto them. That left Misao to pin Neko with the Hypami Returns.

After the match the SEA trio of Matcha, Alexis Lee & Nor ‘Phoenix’ Diana entered the ring to stand in front of their champion opponents. Matcha & Lee got into a little fight with Kyoraku Kyomei. Meanwhile Raku wanted to shake Diana’s hand and make a Good Night pose together but Diana turned her down. Nakajima said a successful defence against Matcha & Lee will be used as a stepping stone for Kyoraku Kyomei to defend their titles abroad even more. She wants to show the challengers she is the Big Kaiju while Misao will prove to them that she is a hero! Raku heard that Malaysians sleep a little longer than Japanese people but she wonders if Diana hasn’t been able to sleep because she is too excited to be in Japan? If that’s the case then Raku wants to have lots of sweet dreams with her.

The SEA wrestlers had a good start in the ring by winning their first match of the long weekend. Matcha used a Saito Suplex on Mizuki, Lee threw Arisu Endo aside with a German Suplex and Diana pinned Pom Harajuku with a Modified Neckbreaker called the DN. Diana said she is happy to debut in TJPW because Japan is the leading pro wrestling country in Asia. Lee thinks the three of them make a good team together. Matcha wants to keep the momentum going so all three of them can head home each carrying a championship belt.

The trainee Konatsu will make her debut on 1st June. She was originally introduced to fans back in October 2024. Since she is from Hamamatsu City in Shizuoka her debut match will be at the nearby Chunichi Hall in Nagoya on 1st June. She told the fans she will do her best for the once in a lifetime debut match close to her hometown.

The next “TJPW INSPIRATION” show will be held on 28th June at TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi. It will be TJPW’s first show at the new venue. The first match announced is Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami.

April 26, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SAPPORO”, 26/04/2025
Hokkaido Sapporo Sun Plaza
281 Fans – No Vacancy

1. HIMAWARI defeated Chika Nanase with the Half Crab Hold (6:19).
2. 3 Way Match: Kaya Toribami defeated Mahiro Kiryu and Uta Takami when Toribami when Toribami pinned Takami with an Inside Cradle (7:00).
3. Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Kira Summer & Ivy Steele when Raku submitted Steele with the Front Neck Lock (8:58).
4. Yuki Aino defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Venus DDT (7:49).
5. Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Mifu Ashida defeated Haru Kazashiro, Toga & Shino Suzuki when Kamifuku pinned Suzuki with the Famouser (13:23).
6. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Rika Tatsumi & Haruna Neko when Misao pinned Neko with the Hypami Returns (10:37).
7. Mizuki, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto when Mizuki pinned Miyamoto with the Diving Foot Stomp (14:07).

For her first match in Japan as a full time pro wrestler, Yuki Arai was announced as the “Genius Girl” with SKE48 no longer attached to her nickname. She was on the losing side of the main event though. Her & Miu Watanabe were taken down by Daisy Monkey so Mizuki could pin Moka Miyamoto with the Diving Foot Stomp. Suzume & Arisu Endo were really happy because today was their first time wrestling in Hokkaido (although Suzume went there with Tokyo Joshi Pro one time previously as a trainee). Watanabe & Miyamoto looked on the bright side and complimented Arai on her new costume.

Suzume knows her next challenger for the International Princess Title is HIMAWARI who is currently on a winning streak. Even before she became No. 1 Contender Suzume could see gleams in the eyes of the younger wrestlers and that is pushing her to keep defending the title. She promised not to let her guard down against HIMAWARI.

*V2 for Mizuki.

The busiest week in wrestling is taking place in Las Vegas and Tokyo Joshi Pro was there to put on their biggest show in America ever. As one of the many shows taking place in The Collective series, TJPW put their best foot forward by presenting as genuine a TJPW experience as they could along with four championship matches filling up the second half of the card. The main event was also the biggest match they could currently put together when it comes to who the best two wrestlers in the company are.

Mizuki went up against the monster Miyu Yamashita to purposely give herself the toughest challenge to make herself even stronger as the reigning Princess Of Princess Champion. Yamashita put her through a hellish time with kicks before dragging the champion over to the Pearl Theater stage. Mizuki fought back by dodging a Penalty Kick and then sprinting across the stage to jump onto her opponent with a Double Stomp. However Yamashita recovered and gave her the Attitude Adjustment on the stage. Back in the ring Yamashita got the better of the exchange by hitting the Skull Kick but was too hurt herself to make the pin. When she recovered she turned to run the ropes, presumably for the Crash Rabbit Heat but Mizuki grabbed onto her leg and gave her the Cutie Special. She followed up with the Run-Up Double Stomp, the Whirling Candy and then a bridging Cutie Special to finally beat Yamashita in a singles match for the first time!

After the match Mizuki got the microphone and asked the fans in English if they were happy? She then cheekily asked Yamashita if she was happy too? Yamashita obviously wasn’t. Mizuki then invited all of the present TJPW roster out for a group photo in the ring to close out the show. Backstage Yamashita admitted she was happy to wrestle Mizuki in Vegas with the Princess Title on the line but she lost and will never forgive Mizuki for that. She will now be touring across America for the next 3 months and promises to return at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” in July even stronger. Mizuki said Yamashita is a monster and she doesn’t like her but she is happy because the fans today were all so kind.

You can now add the TNA World Knockouts Title to the growing list of championships that have been defended on TJPW shows. The champion Masha Slamovich was already scheduled to face Miu Watanabe on the show and the title stipulation was only added a few days before. Watanabe focused on her strength and threw Slamovich with moves over and over. She even used the Inverted Tear Drop from the Canadian Backbreaker position. But Slamovich wouldn’t give up and landed a Headbutt followed by a Spin Kick to stun Watanabe. The White Knight Driver was then used to get Slamovich the win. Backstage Slamovich said she once promised to defend the Knockouts Title on a TJPW show and she did it today against one of the baddest women in the locker room. Her goal when she comes to TJPW is to beat their wrestlers one by one. She will fight them any time whether it’s for a championship or not. Watanabe is disappointed she couldn’t grab the big opportunity that was given to her. She also thinks Slamovich is crazy because she is wrestling something like 7,8 or 9 matches this week!

Maybe the two wrestlers who were most looking forward to visiting Las Vegas were Kyoraku Kyomei. With the casino right next to the theater, Shoko Nakajima wants to win big. She got off to a good start with a successful Princess Tag Teams Titles defence against Ober Eats. We got the “Hello Big Children” welcome from Hyper Misao and she quickly sprayed Yuki Kamifuku in the face. Wakana Uehara used Cartwheel Elbows into the corner and also the Banana Pillow to try and win. She got extra help from Kamifuku using the Famouser but in the end Misao landed the Hypami Returns on Uehara and Nakajima scored the pin with the Diving Senton. Now it’s on to the casinos to win big money! At least Kamifuku made a new friend in Uehara from teaming up together so much recently. Uehara said she wants Ober Eats to be the most glamorous tag team in TJPW.

In a rematch from last month Suzume put the International Title on the line again against Jada Stone. Suzume started off quick by hitting a Plancha out of the ring. She also had a roll up counter for the Spark Stunner. Stone had a big counter of her own, catching the Ring A Bell and turning it into a Gory Special. Stone also went high risk with the Sky Twister Press but only got a two count out of it. The two fought up to the top rope where Suzume grabbed Stone and gave her a Flying Facecrusher. That signalled the end and Suzume got the Ring A Bell right this time to beat Stone for the second time in a row. She said Stone had evolved a lot since the first match and has become her best rival. She would like to fight her again and again. Stone said this return to TJPW is her dream continuing and she would love to have another rematch because Suzume brings her abilities to the limit.

Due to visa problems Pom Harajuku could not travel for the show so Raku took her spot as Max The Impaler’s tag partner. Zara Zakher was confused to see Raku place a pillow in the ring and take a nap but it was only to lure Zakher into a Cradle. Raku also tried Poppo Chopping Maki Itoh but kept hurting her hand from hitting Itoh’s hard head. Max wasn’t happy with the pillow nonsense and Gorilla Pressed Raku onto their opponents. Whatever teamwork they had figured out fell apart when Raku missed a Poppo Chop and hit Max by accident. Max was then bumped forward, squashing Raku in the corner. Zakher took out Max with a dive out of the ring leaving Itoh to submit Raku with the Itoh Deluxe. Max had to drag a defeated Raku along the floor away from ringside.

With Raku moved up to Match #3, her spot in Match #2 was given to Ram Kaichow. What should have been a wonderful Las Vegas honeymoon for the wedded couple instead turned into confusion because Kaichow couldn’t find Raku anywhere in the ring. It didn’t take long for Rika Tatsumi to choke Kaichow while Shino Suzuki wanted to give her a tour of Vegas, calling one of the turnbuckle posts the High Roller casino. Vert Vixen then went on the attack until Kaichow faked fainting to make her opponent drop her guard. Viva Van fought off Tatsumi giving Suzuki the chance to try and beat Yuki Aino. That didn’t happen. Aino broke out of her Sleeper Hold and after the match broke down into a free for all, Aino pinned Suzuki with the Venus DDT.

Yuki Arai can celebrate her American debut because she got her hand raised against Arisu Endo. She got off to a good start using kicks and Big Boots, leading up to the Sharpshooter. Endo reached the ropes and turned the tables by putting Arai in the Camel Clutch to make her fight for a rope break in the same way. Endo tried to set up the Ju no Okite but Arai escaped and hit the Full Nelson Buster. Her first attempt at the Finally was blocked but after hitting the Rookie Award, she hit her finisher on the next attempt to win. Arai said she was very happy that Endo was her first opponent in America and she wants to see more of the country. She isn’t satisfied by where she is at now so will aim to grow by working hard even more. Endo was also happy to be Arai’s first opponent now that Arai is fully dedicated to pro wrestling. Next time Endo says she won’t lose!

The show began with a performance from the three members of The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) who were booked on the show. Raku also revealed that Amtrak was her Train Of The Day. Congratulations to Amtrak.
