1. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Mahiro Kiryu with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (11:43).
2. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Marika Kobashi defeated Suzume, Arisu Endo & Kaya Toribami when Nakajima pinned Endo with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:45).
3. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Nao Kakuta and Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Kyururindon! (7:19).
4. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Hikari Noa & Haruna Neko when Yamashita pinned Neko with the Attitude Adjustment (12:03).
5. 2nd “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Moka Miyamoto & Yuki Arai when Watanabe pinned Miyamoto with the Tear Drop (15:25).
6. 2nd “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Asuka when Aino pinned Kamifuku after the Bakuretsu Bulldog (15:39).

There are only so many matches left for The Bakuretsu Sisters before Nodoka Tenma graduates from Tokyo Joshi Pro this March. The team may be coming to an end soon but they can win the Max Heart Tournament in their final weeks together. VENYU couldn’t knock them out in the semi-final today. Tenma put Asuka out with the Killswitch, Yuki Aino gave Yuki Kamifuku the Side Suplex and together the Sisters hit the Bakuretsu Bulldog on Kamifuku for the win. They said they have come this far so they have no choice but to win the whole thing. Kamifuku was disappointed to lose but Asuka assured her their tournament run was not a disaster in the least.

The MokaYuki Cinderella run was all a dream. A Daydream that is! Eh? Eh? A lot of attention in the tournament was given to the Moka Miyamoto & Yuki Arai pairing but it all came to an end today. Arai put all the credit on Miyamoto for getting the team this far. Miyamoto however was more upset over the result and blamed the loss on herself. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe move on to the final.

The final on 11th February is now between Daydream and The Bakuretsu Sisters. Much like what the Sisters said above, Daydream aren’t afraid because they made it to the final by beating Kyoraku Kyomei and now MokaYuki. Both teams were complimentary to each other to close out the show.

Pom Harajuku tried to disguise herself as a ringside second for the 3 Way Match so would be ignored. Her disguise was just a large piece of paper on her back with “I Am A Second” written on it. Mizuki and Nao Kakuta didn’t fall for it and they dragged her back into the match.

In the opening match, Yuka Sakazaki got annoyed from seeing so many Yuki Arai shirts in the audience. She took her frustration out on Mahiro Kiryu, who complained to the referee about fouls being committed. Sakazaki then brought a chair into the ring and when they fought over it, the ref got knocked out by accident. Sakazaki then accidentally hit herself when she missed a swing and the chair bounced off the rope back into her face. Kiryu was falsely caught with the chair when the ref got back up and the match went back to normal.

Miyu Yamashita Vs Marika Kobashi was announced for the 5th February show in Yokohama. It will be Kobashi’s final match in her home region before she graduates in April.

There was no Up Up Girls performance to open the show because of Raku’s absence.

1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Kaya Toribami with the Rashomon (5:08).
2. Nao Kakuta defeated Arisu Endo with the Shiden Kai (7:08).
3. 3 Way Match: Hikari Noa defeated Suzume and Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Rotating Leg Hold (8:28).
4. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Tatsumi pinned Harajuku after the Daydream Eternity (12:41).
5. 2nd “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Kamifuku & Asuka defeated Marika Kobashi & Raku when Asuka pinned Kobashi with the Liger Bomb (8:50).
6. 2nd “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki when Nakajima pinned Mizuki with the Northern Lights Suplex (14:53).

A message was sent loud and clear from Shoko Nakajima to the rest of Tokyo Joshi Pro. She will be the next Princess Of Princess Champion and cannot lose to anyone! The proof is in her pinning Mizuki and Kyoraku Kyomei eliminating The Magical Sugar Rabbits in Round 1! Of course, she couldn’t have done this alone. Hyper Misao is there trying to catch up to her partner and promises to beat Daydream in Round 2 because she is so inspired by Nakajima. For MagiRabi this is the second year in a row they crashed out of the Max Heart Tournament in the opening round. Yuka Sakazaki knew they were going up against their toughest opponents and she didn’t let her guard down until the final minute. The reigning Princess Tag Team Champions confirmed afterward they will give the next title shot to the winners of the tournament.

VENYU were together again for the first time since their debut performance last October and it’s safe to say the team can become successful if they keep it up. After beating Marika Kobashi & Raku to advance, Yuki Kamifuku told the fans that Asuka was feeling hungover from the night before. Asuka admitted she didn’t give it her all today but she is determined to win. Even so, Asuka knows they can’t get past the 2nd Round if she wrestles while hungover again. Kamifuku is also scared of going up against 121000000 next and suggested taking a shot of tequila to get rid of her fear.

Idols Yui Okada and Lingling accompanied Miyu Yamashita for her entrance and posed for a group photo with her team before the 8-Women Tag Match. They are two of the hosts from the show “Universe Bible” on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

Ring announcer Sayuri Namba received a letter from NEO Biishiki-gun to read during the opening announcements. The letter said Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel will return to TJPW and participate at the 11th February Korakuen Hall show.

4. Dreamer’s Bridge ~Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Vs HOT JAPAN~: Yuya Aoki, Andy Wu & Tsugutaka Sato defeated Keisuke Ishii, Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki when Aoki pinned Tominaga with the Kesagiri Chop (21:24).
5. A Clinical Trial Match Between Men With Painted Faces: SAGAT defeated Hajime with the Goregrind (8:48). (Special Referee: The Great Yume)
6. Hardcore Mixed Tag 1 DAY Tournament – Final: Shigehiro Irie & Itsuki Aoki defeated Shota & Asuka when Irie pinned Shota with an Avalanche Samoan Drop onto the Chair (14:06).

The 6th and last Ganbare☆Pro show in three days was a chaotic affair all put together by Yumehito Imanari. His show was built around a Hardcore Mixed Tag Tournament, one with so many hot matches that it would become a must-watch video on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. Unfortunately for Imanari he was eliminated from his own tournament in the very first match. He & Miss Mongol fell to Shigehiro Irie & Itsuki Aoki. Then the Weekend Lovers of Shota & Asuka went over Mizuki Watase & Cherry. The final was the craziest match of the lot and ended with Irie giving Shota a top rope Samoan Drop onto chairs. Despite Imanari’s lack of success in the ring, he was still proud with how the show went. Ganpro may be small but he knows it can go all the way to the top!

The match between SAGAT and Hajime became so intense it needed a special referee to watch over it. Imanari came out as The Great Yume, knocked out Daisuke Kiso with an uppercut and took over as the ref!

The Ganpro and HOT JAPAN teams got into a war of words after their match and started brawling in the ring. Imanari was one of the wrestlers trying to pull them apart but Keisuke Ishii gave him a Fisherman Buster for his troubles. HOT JAPAN were confused enough from seeing Ishii attack his own ally that they calmed down and stopped fighting.

1. Juria Nagano Debut Match: Juria Nagano Vs X
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

In Miyu Yamashita’s mind there is only one person she should main event Sumo Hall against TJPW’s biggest show ever. She chose Shoko Nakajima. The two are the longest serving members of the TJPW roster and both made their official pro wrestling debut at the same time. It was on 17th August, 2013 at Sumo Hall. There isn’t a match-up more fitting.

The pro wrestling debut of Juria Nagano will also be on the show. Nagano was born in Shimane on 10th February, 1996. She is 159cm tall and has a 2nd black belt in Shito-ryu Karate. She also works as an action actress as well as a nurse. Sanshiro Takagi scouted her for TJPW and she is currently deep into her preparations for her debut.

5. Secret Captain’s Fall Elimination 6-Woman Tag Match: Yuu Yamagata, Makoto & HARUKAZE (C) defeated Yuna Manase (C), Moeka Haruhi & Cherry (16:01).
5a. HARUKAZE (C) eliminated Cherry by Ring Out (8:13).
5b. Yuna Manase eliminated Makoto by Ring Out (9:03).
5c. Yuu Yamagata eliminated Moeka Haruhi by Ring Out (12:10).
5d. Yuna Manase (C) eliminated Yuu Yamagata by Ring Out (13:11).
5e. HARUKAZE (C) eliminated Yuna Manase (C) with a Cradle Cutback (16:01).

The Captain’s Fall Elimination match went with an extra rule that said the captains would not be revealed until they were eliminated. Cherry and Makoto were the first two eliminations. Moeka Haruhi tried to sacrifice herself by holding onto Yuu Yamagata on the apron. Yuna Manase charged into both of them but only Haruhi fell to the ground, getting eliminated in the process. However, Haruhi grabbed Yamagata again and pulled her to the floor to take her out of the match. The referee never called an end so it was concluded that the final two wrestlers Manase and HARUKAZE were the team captains. Manase gave HARUKAZE the Suzuki Dynamic but during the pinfall, HARUKAZE rolled through the momentum and pinned Manase for the 3 count out of nowhere.

HARUKAZE celebrated getting to beat Manase for the second time in a row. She said Manase has tunnel vision and needs to expand her horizons. Otherwise she will never be able to beat Yamagata. Then Yamagata got to speak. She admitted Ganbare☆Joshi has gotten more interesting than the last time she was here. But she thinks GanJo are all idiots for thinking she was going to be the team captain. This is a GanJo ring so it only makes sense for HARUKAZE to be the captain. The team left Manase and Haruhi to deal with the defeat.

Manase was certain she was going to win today but HARUKAZE beat her for the second time in a row. There was something different about her compared to when they used to team together. Maybe Manase is weak. Haruhi tried to motivate Manase and told her to stay standing no matter what. She set a goal to defeat Yuu Yamagata. Haruhi herself fought with all her might to make sure their team would win today. It wasn’t enough but Haruhi isn’t embarrassed about it. As she was saying this, Manase started losing her concentration and began to mumble about her parents and grandparents. Cherry brought Haruhi backstage to calm down, leaving Manase alone in the ring.

Suddenly Saki Akai made her entrance and stood in the ring with Manase. She came to see what Ganbare☆Joshi was all about and this is what she gets? Where is the Yuna Manase who kept standing up when Akai knocked her down over and over in DDT last month? That’s the Yuna Manase who Akai and the fans want to see. If Manase was at her most exciting chasing after Akai then Akai wants to keep an eye on her so she won’t run out of steam. Manase said the next GanJo show is happening on 7th November and she wants to team with Akai there. Akai accepted the offer. Backstage Yamagata was told the news and she replied she doesn’t know who Saki Akai is.

The start to YuuRI’s trial series saw the newcomer lose to Asuka. At first Asuka was dismissive of her opponent but it was intended to bring out the fire in her. She told YuuRI “good job” after the match but was left feeling frustrated by the whole experience. While Asuka does appreciate YuuRI showing respect to her, she still thought her effort in the ring was too amateurish. Maybe it isn’t YuuRI’s fault because Asuka wants something interesting to do in Ganbare☆Pro and hasn’t been able to find it lately. YuuRI meanwhile found out from Ken Ohka who her second trial opponent will be. She will face Maya Yukihi on 7th November.

Mizuki Watase got a big boost of encouragement by getting the win in his tag match. He & Shigehiro Irie gave Masayuki Mitomi a Double Stomp/Tombstone combo and Watase then finished him off with the Back Drop. Watase said Irie is entrusting him with everything to win the Ganbare☆Climax because Irie himself is not entering it. Today is just the beginning and Watase believes he is in the best position to win the tournament.

5. Special Tag Match: Aja Kong & Moka Miyamoto defeated Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai when Kong pinned Arai with the Diving Elbow Drop (16:03).
6. International Princess Title: Hikari Noa (c) defeated Yuki Aino with the Blizzard Suplex (11:27).
*V3 for Hikari Noa.
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel (c) when Mizuki pinned Saint-Michel with the Cutie Special (18:33).
*NEO Biishiki-gun fails in V3. The Magical Sugar Rabbits become the 9th Princess Tag Team Champions!
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Maki Itoh with the Crash Rabbit Heat (17:23).
*V3 for Miyu Yamashita.

Sadly for Maki Itoh her happy ending was just for the Tokyo Princess Cup and no further. She had a sound gameplan against Miyu Yamashita, targeting her waist to make the Itoh Punish and Itoh Deluxe more effective. She also had counters ready for the Skull Kick. However Yamashita had those counters scouted from their previous matches together and rocked her opponent with the move. Yamashita had enough respect for Itoh to know she could still fight so she allowed her the chance to get back up. Itoh used her remaining strength to duck a Buzzsaw Kick but Yamashita followed with a Sole Butt to the face and then the Crash Rabbit Heat to win the match.

Yamashita praised Itoh for becoming stronger. It’s because of her that Yamashita wanted to fight for this match in Ota Ward Gymnasium today. But the story of Yamashita and Itoh isn’t over today and neither is 121000000. The two cried and hugged each other. Itoh then stuck up her middle finger and Yamashita pressed her fist against it. Yamashita told the fans the Princess Of Princess Title is the most important treasure in her life. She will continue to defend it and make Tokyo Joshi Pro even bigger in the process!

The final moment of the show was a big announcement for the company. TJPW will run their first Sumo Hall show by themselves next year! “GRAND PRINCESS ’22” will take place on 19th March, 2022. That is the day before DDT “JUDGEMENT 2022” takes place in the same venue. Yamashita said she is happy to finally run a TJPW show there and she will definitely be the champion for it!

It took two years but The Magical Sugar Rabbits have regained the Princess Tag Team Titles from NEO Biishiki-gun! The result spoils what would have been a majestic day for the former champions. Sakisama made her entrance from a throne covered in roses with her loyal maid Mei Saint-Michel by her side. But they weren’t ready for the energy Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki brought with them. Neither was Daisuke Kiso because the referee got bumped during the match and missed Mizuki putting Saint-Michel in the Facelock. Saint-Michel used her broom to free herself and then used the same broom for a witch-style Double Knee Drop from the top rope. She then put Mizuki in the Saint-Michel submission hold but Sakazaki grabbed her partner’s hand from the ring apron and pulled her towards the ropes. In the scramble for the finish, Saint-Michel set Mizuki up for the Newton Crash but she was shaken off and thrown over with the Cutie Special. Mizuki then hit another Cutie Special for the three count.

Backstage Saint-Michel fell onto the interview table in a slump. Sakisama told her she isn’t angry over the result. In fact today she can say she is now a full-blown maid! She told her to remember the days of their beauty training. They’ve done it in the rain, the wind, the heat, the cold, all on a tightrope over a cliff. Sakisama understands her maid is working hard so she wants the fans to be grateful that they got the chance to see NEO Biishiki-gun today.

That was the only title change on the show today. The remaining championship match to talk about was Hikari Noa successfully defending the International Princess Title against Yuki Aino. Noa blocked the Venus DDT and struggled her way out of the UBV. With Aino’s big moves avoided, Noa hit her with two Super Kicks and got the pin with the Blizzard Suplex. Noa said she was more excited than nervous going into the match in such a big venue. She wants to go even bigger. Noa wonders if maybe some day she will defend the title at a TJPW show held inside the Tokyo Dome!

Miu Watanabe wasn’t able to achieve her goal of Giant Swinging Aja Kong. She did the next best thing which was to Giant Swing Moka Miyamoto into Kong’s legs to knock her down (probably not the best thing for Kong because before the match she announced on social media an upcoming leave of absence to get knee surgery). Also Watanabe was able to Body Slam Kong after some effort. Yuki Arai also did her best against the monster. That got Kong’s attention because she shouted “Nice to meet you!” to Arai before chopping her down. Together, Watanabe & Aino tried to cut down Kong with a Laserbeam/High Kick combo. But their follow up Brainbuster attempt was reversed with Kong overpowering the both of them. Kong then hit a Reverse Elbow Drop from the turnbuckles onto Arai to get the win. Miyamoto called the experience amazing. She doesn’t know if she left a mark in the match but she did her best and still enjoyed it. Kong encouraged her to become more greedy in the ring because it’s more fun to do various things as a wrestler. Kong thinks somebody will get the Giant Swing on her eventually but she didn’t want it to be today. Also after the match Arai received a message from Kong that just said “Welcome.” Arai takes it that she is now accepted as a pro wrestler so even though she lost, she is still happy.

The reunited Twin Cam Monsters were victorious over Suzume & Arisu Endo. The combined speed and experience was too much but the underdogs still put up a fight. Riho & Shoko Nakajima gave Suzume a combined Northern Lights Suplex. Endo broke the count but Nakajima threw her in position for Riho to take her out with the Somato. From there Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Diving Senton. Suzume was pleased to show how much she has grown since her debut two years ago and also encouraged Endo for helping her when she needed it. Riho enjoyed the match and liked the atmosphere of the show. She also praised Suzume for her progress.

The new team VENYU left a strong impression from the moment their ring entrance began. Asuka dealt with Marika Kobashi (who was returning from a cracked rib injury), leaving Yuki Kamifuku in the ring with her sometimes nemesis Nao Kakuta. Kamifuku escaped the Shiden Kai and gave Kakuta the Famouser from behind. Kamifuku would then his a second Famouser this time from the turnbuckles to win the match. Kakuta thought she would have been able to beat two Roppongi girls because she was teaming with a Shibuya girl. Kobashi had to explain to her that the atmosphere in Roppongi is very different to that in Shibuya. Kamifuku said she was glad not to be wrestling against Asuka today. She also criticized Kakuta for not showing the same motivation against her that she had when they feuded. Asuka thinks the match went better than expected so there may be more from VENYU to look forward to.

Hyper Misao was so excited to see Rika Tatsumi come back that she made a sign to welcome her back. She was so excited to wrestle Tatsumi again that she forgot Nodoka Tenma was in the match. She told Tenma to leave but Tatsumi attacked her to start the action. Misao couldn’t contain her happiness when she got to be alone with Tatsumi in the ring. She held up the sign while doing I Am A Hero onto Tatsumi. Tenma broke the pin with a Diving Body Press onto both of them. She then got the pin herself by giving Misao the Killswitch.

The opening match was the return of Mahiro Kiryu from injury and also the TJPW debut of Ram Kaichow.
