TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW YEAR-END PARTY 2024”, 29/12/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

2. Dot Money Presents TJPW RUSH! Year End Special Red And White Team 5 Vs 5 Knockout Match: Shoko Nakajima, Arisu Endo, Moka Miyamoto, Haru Kazashiro & Toga Vs Mizuki, Suzume, Yoshiko Hasegawa, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami

5. WINTICKET Presents I Hope There Will Be Lots Of Fun And Exciting Things Next Year!

The Red and White teams have been decided for the TJPW RUSH match. Now it is up to the captains Shoko Nakajima and Mizuki to come up with their team orders based on how Kendo handles team competitions. From start to end the positions are Senpo, Jiho, Chuken, Fukusho and Taisho. Since this is a Gauntlet match there is a chance that it can end with some wrestlers on the winning team not even getting to take part. If that happens then the wrestlers who did not get to enter will be added into the Princess Rumble. Tokyo Joshi Pro wants to ensure that everybody booked on the show will get to wrestle on it.

Antonio Honda is the latest unexpected entry into the Princess Rumble. There are four spots remaining but they may be kept open for whoever gets potentially left out of the TJPW RUSH match. You never know if the match ends up with only one wrestler going on a clean sweep leaving the other four on the team waiting on the sidelines for nothing.

DDT “NEW YEAR☆DRAMATIC PARADE 2025 ~ANSWERS WILL BE REVEALED ONE YEAR LATER~”, 03/01/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. BZW Tag Team Titles: MAO & Yoshihiko (c) Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
2. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Jun Akiyama Vs Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya
3. KO-D Openweight Title Next Challenger 4 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs HARASHIMA Vs KANON

A few days ago I mentioned Shuji Ishikawa’s appearance here could be a hint towards big things on the horizon for the Evolution Joshi group that he helps manages with Suwama. Yesterday it was announced that the group will soon become a fully fledged pro wrestling company called Pro Wrestling Evolution. They will mainly focus on their home grown roster of joshi wrestlers but Ishikawa and Suwama will also be providing men’s matches on their shows. Could Ishikawa be on a path to win the KO-D Openweight Title to bring some prestige into his new venture? He did that before with Union Pro so history might get a chance to repeat itself.

Last month in France MAO & Yoshihiko turned Banger Zone Wrestling upside down by winning the BZW Tag Team Titles. They don’t have a return date set in stone yet so for the time being they are going to defend the titles at DDT shows in Japan. Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda are joining forces to be their first challengers.

“SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMERATION EVENT ~ NEVER SAY NEVER”, 03/02/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Tag Match: Dump Matsumoto & Toru Owashi Vs Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei

The next guest appearing at Sanshiro Takagi’s anniversary show is Fumihito Kihara. He was originally a ring announcer for All Japan goin back to the 1980s and ended up becoming a pro wrestler himself decades later. He wrestled in Ganbare☆Pro several times during the promotion’s early years. Here he will be pulling double duty because Takagi is booking him both as a wrestler and as the ring announcer!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “AEX32 SANTIAGO 2025”, 09/02/2025
Estación Mapocho Cultural Center, Santiago, Chile

1. Moka Miyamoto Vs Pandora
2. Aja Kong Vs Roma
3. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Zatara & Sara Phoenix

Three matches have been announced for TJPW’s convention show in Chile for AEX Santiago. They are sending over Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Moka Miyamoto and also Aja Kong as a bonus. Their opponents are all local luchadoras from the Chile wrestling scene. Zatara & Sara Phoenix are familiar with each other both as opponents and teammates. Roma has been in wrestling for just as long as those two. Pandora is the same age as Miyamoto and has a similar level of experience as her so on paper they should be on an equal footing.

Even though they don’t really have the win-loss record to be treated as genuine challengers, Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken want to end the year challenging Astronauts for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. There might be another challengers not too far away because Ayato Yoshida from 2AW told Kazato to give him a title shot if Kazato’s team become the champions.

1. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Jun Akiyama Vs Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya
2. KO-D Openweight Title Next Challenger 4 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs HARASHIMA Vs KANON

DDT opens up 2025 looking for a new No. 1 Contender for the KO-D Openweight Title. Three former champions and a wild card are going to take part in a 4 Way Match to see who gets the shot. Danshoku Dieno and HARASHIMA have held the title plenty of times before. Shuji Ishikawa being in the match is a surprise and might be a hint towards how much of a presence Evolution Joshi will grow in the industry throughout 2025. KANON is the wild card to make sure DAMNATION T.A stays near the title picture. But what will happen if he wins the match and Daisuke Sasaki is the champion?

DDT “MEET AND GREET AND FIGHT IN OSAKA” Results

DDT “ROAD TO ULTIMATE PARTY 2024 IN OSAKA” Results

December 15, 2024

DDT “ROAD TO ULTIMATE PARTY 2024 IN OSAKA”, 15/12/2024
Osaka City Konohana Kumin Hall
294 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Demus defeated Yuni with La Valagueza (7:09).
2. Special Tag Match: Akito & Keigo Nakamura defeated Carnatux & Yuki Ishida when Nakamura pinned Ishida with the Modified Crucifix (7:55).
3. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino defeated Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi when Endo pinned Sumi with the Burning Star Press (11:11).
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, MAO & Soma Takao defeated Danshoku Dieno, Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when MAO pinned Matsunaga with a Body Press (10:28).
5. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno defeated Kazuki Hirata with the WR (16:19).
6. SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & Ilusion defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada when Sasaki submitted Honda with the Crossface Lock (14:04).
7. Special Single Match: To-y defeated Yuya Koroku with a Chickenwing Arm Lock Counter (15:45).

It just keeps happening! To-y once again beat Yuya Koroku, this time in a main event singles match. It continues the trend of Koroku’s recent losing streak against To-y. He spends the match targeting To-y’s arm and went for a Chickenwing Arm Lock to finish him off. However To-y found a way to Inside Cradle Koroku while defending himself from the move and scored the pinfall to win again. To-y said he is forging his own path no matter what. He is who he is today because he believes in The 37KAMIINA and they believe in him. That’s why he and MAO are going to take the KO-D Tag Team Titles at Sumo Hall! Koroku still can’t figure out what he’s doing wrong. He enjoys wrestling and believes in BURNING. Whatever he’s missing he hasn’t been doing it enough to win matches.

Daisuke Sasaki is going to make everyone believe he will beat Chris Brookes for the KO-D Openweight Title at Sumo Hall, even if he has to convince them by force. After DAMNATION T.A defeated SCHADENFREUDE International in their latest battle, they attacked Keigo Nakamura at ringside and forced him to say Sasaki will beat Brookes for the title. Nakamura was targeted because he has spent the month campaigning with Brookes for the upcoming Shukan Puroresu Awards. Sasaki also found one of the magazine’s reporters backstage and forced him to say the same thing.

The grudge between Yuki Ueno and Kazuki Hirata was settled with a match between the two. It happened here because the venue is only a 15 minute walk away from Ueno’s old alma mater. Hirata had an evil plan in place to hire masked goons to attack Ueno after the referee was knocked out. Ueno easily fought them off. Hirata then read a personal letter to Ueno where he said he would like nothing more than for Ueno to dance with him. Ueno was given a pair of Hirata GO! glasses but he refused because there are two things he hates: hurting people and dancing. The masked goons were able to get the glasses onto Ueno’s head, forcing him to dance with Hirata. But that only led to Ueno giving him the WR and winning the match.

MAO and Tomomitsu Matsunaga both fainted when they forced each other to go faces first into Danshoku Dieno’s rear end while he was bent over the top turnbuckle. MAO fell on top of Matsunaga when they collapsed and that was counted as a pin.

Yuki Ishida tried to get along with Carnatux by making him do the Dosukoi pose.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WINTER STORY” Results

December 14, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WINTER STORY”, 14/12/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall
223 Fans

1. Suzume defeated Uta Takami with the Ring A Bell (6:28).
2. Yuki Kamifuku & Haruna Neko defeated Raku & Chika Nanase when Neko pinned Nanase with the Nekodebreaker (8:17).
3. Rika Tatsumi & Moka Miyamoto defeated Arisu Endo & Ivy Steele when Miyamoto submitted Steele with the Rashomon (10:42).
4. Hyper Misao defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Hypami Returns (9:47).
5. Pom Harajuku defeated HIMAWARI with the Pom de Justice (7:32).
6. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Kaya Toribami when Yamashita pinned Toribami with the Attitude Adjustment (12:45).
7. Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Toga defeated Mizuki, Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki when Watanabe pinned Suzuki with the Tear Drop (13:24).

Miu Watanabe is winning the battle against Mizuki but is there something she can’t stop thinking about that will lose her the war? She showed her monstrous strength in the main event by giving Mizuki the Giant Swing on the ring apron. She later gave both Mizuki & Shino Suzuki a stacked Tear Drop over her shoulder. Toga & Haru Kazashiro were also able to show off how well they are becoming as a team. The three of them were the winners but Watanabe couldn’t help but ask them to assure everyone in Yokohama that she is a super cute princess. Backstage Watanabe said she wants today’s Giant Swing to go viral so many more people will watch the Princess Of Princess Title match on 4th January. Mizuki was suprised by the Giant Swing through the ropes. It was something she couldn’t predict. She called Watanabe a one woman Beauty & The Beast because she looks like a princess but has the shadow of a monster!

The clumsiness of Mahiro Kiryu actually helped her team win. She was knocked prone late in the match and Kaya Toribami tripped over her while she dodged Miyu Yamashita’s High Kick. Toribami bounced off the ropes and stumbled over Kiryu again right into Yamashita’s arms for the Attitude Adjustment that ended the match.

The all conquering Pom Harajuku returned to Tokyo Joshi Pro with the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title (that she dropped by accident during her ring entrance). She also wore homemade headwear to look like a sunflower because HIMAWARI was her opponent today. HIMAWARI didn’t get the joke. Harajuku won the match and knows Matcha is on her way to try and take the title back from her. Harajuku said the belt belongs to her and she won’t lose!

While Hyper Misao was away with an injury, she missed her chance to welcome Yoshiko Hasegawa to TJPW. So today she got to tell her how happy she is that out of all of the joshi wrestling promotions out there, Hasegawa chose to join TJPW. She gave her the microphone to speak but then attacked Hasegawa from behind and choked her with the microphone cord. Hasegawa tried her best to fight back but Misao kept finding tricks to counter her until she won the match. She was being genuine about welcoming Hasegawa to TJPW though. She encouraged her to enjoy a fun wrestling life as a member of the company.

Misao then talked about the current state of TJPW, believing the group’s power level is reaching MAX status with the recent additions to the roster. TJPW will be facing DDT in a 6-Man Tag Match at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024” on 28th December and she thinks her team will definitely win. Suddenly Super Sasadango Machine made and appearance and entered the ring carrying a bag. He told Misao that DDT is filled with bad behavior but when you remove the hard shell there is a fluffiness to be found beneath it. He came here today to negotiate a peaceful settlement between DDT and TJPW. He brought with him a bag of luxury chocolate from Niigata for Misao. She can have it if the TJPW team cancels the match at Sumo Hall so no one will have to watch DDT tear them apart. While Misao was considering the offer, Rika Tatsumi got into the ring and choked Sasadango! Misao joined in the attack and the two of them told Sasadango that public bribery is a violation of the rules! They decline his offer and TJPW will beat DDT at Sumo Hall! They then walked off with the bag of chocolate.

When Sasadango recovered from the attack he got on the microphone and complained to Tetsuya Koda about the behavior of his wrestlers. Sasadango was humiliated and he will make Koda take responsibility for it. He suddenly attacked Koda and promised to humiliate TJPW at Sumo Hall! Tatsumi & Misao ran back down to chase Sasadango away and literally slap Koda back to life. They still kept the chocolate because it would have been rude not to accept it. Sasadango told reporters this is now a company-to-company issue between DDT and TJPW.

The first three teams entering the 2025 Max Heart Tournament were announced. They are Kyoraku Kyomei (Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao), Daisy Monkey (Suzume & Arisu Endo) and Pompaler (Pom Harajuku & Max The Impaler). Nine other teams will enter the tournament in January for a total of twelve teams taking part.

The show began with the draw for all of the singles matches taking place on 21st December. The ten matches will each have a 7 minute time limit. They are Moka Miyamoto Vs Ivy Steele, Shino Suzuki Vs Raku, Miyu Yamashita Vs Mizuki, Rika Tatsumi Vs Shoko Nakajima, Chika Nanase Vs Uta Takami, Maki Itoh Vs Toga, Mahiro Kiryu Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa, Yuki Kamifuku Vs Yuki Aino, Haruna Neko Vs Wakana Uehara and Hyper Misao Vs Haru Kazashiro.

The heavyweight feud between Jun Akiyama and Yukio Naya won’t be ending at Sumo Hall. A few days later in the new year they will be battling each other again this time with Konosuke Takeshita and Yuki Iino added to the mix.

Oh hey, Yuka Sakazaki’s coming back to TJPW for the new year! She hasn’t wrestled since October that I know of for whatever reason and there isn’t any sign of her getting one more match with AEW or ROH before the year is done with. She gets to see first hand how the younger generations have grown since her time away from TJPW. It will be her first time teaming with Moka Miyamoto in a regular tag match. Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro can earn a big scalp together if they can beat that team.

6b. Antonio Honda (1) submitted MJ Paul (1) with an Arm Bar (11:56).

As DDT gets closer to Sumo Hall, one of the last stops left was at Shinjuku FACE for some more previews of what to expect at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”. In the main event DAMNATION T.A went ahead of SCHADENFREUDE International in their feud filled with different multi-man tag stipulations. Today’s match was Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls. DAMNATION took the first fall with a surprise attack at the start followed by Daisuke Sasaki grabbing Masahiro Takanashi from the apron so Ilusion could pin him with a Cradle. SCHADENFREUDE used their own tricks to win the second fall with Chris Brookes using tape to stick Sasaki’s hands together and Antonio Honda making MJ Paul submit to an Arm Bar (he pulled off a similar result with that move to Shuji Ishikawa/Koo many years ago). Brookes and Sasaki fought each other for the final fall until KANON interfered with a chair. Brookes tried to fight back but Sasaki caught him in the Crossface Lock and made him give up when he turned it into the Crossover Facelock.

Brookes grabbed the KO-D Openweight Title after the match and bragged about how much the belt wants to go back to him. He told Brookes not to give up in his British accent again. Backstage Sasaki said the punks in Britain taught him that they are not bound by law but that was all a lie. Those lies have ruined Sasaki’s life and it is time Brookes take responsibility for it! Brookes refused to give any comments backstage so Honda spoke for the team. He said that SCHADENFREUDE will be standing at the end of Ryogoku laughing in the middle of the ring.

It looks like To-y just has Yuya Koroku’s number by this point. They had a singles match today and To-y once again came out on top. Koroku’s gameplan was to target his opponent’s arm but that didn’t stop To-y from beating him with the Kojima Impact. To-y then said he will win the KO-D Tag Team Titles and make 2025 the year of himself and MAO! Koroku got scolded by Tetsuya Endo afterwards. Endo explained he keeps losing because he has changed nothing, which means he is not making any progress. He has no independence, shows no capacity to come up with crazy ideas and his heart is weak too. Koroku said he already knows that. No matter what idea he comes up with it doesn’t work. Endo told him to stop talking and try harder in the ring.

Even though Fuminori Abe twisted Keigo Nakamura into a pretzel until their match was stopped, he gives him his support for the Ryogoku tag match with Shinya Aoki against KENOH & Yu Owada. Nakamura promised to carry DDT on his back for the match so he can beat the NOAH team.

Jun Akiyama and Yukio Naya continued to fight each other after their match and it ended pretty badly for one of them. They fought up to the entrance way where Naya put Akiyama through a table with the Choke Slam! Naya later said he is at his peak and ready to surpass Akiyama at Sumo Hall.

Before the 3 Way Match began, Hisaya Imabayashi revealed to everyone he booked the match to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of his acting career. Kazuki Hirata ruined it by immediately losing the match to Danshoku Dieno. Imabayashi restarted the match and stopped Dieno from quickly winning the same way. He was so involved in the match it almost turned into a tag match with the way he was trying to help Hirata win. Imabayashi explained DDT will have no future unless Hirata becomes popular so he needed him to win. Sadly for him Dieno ended up beating Hirata again anyway.

Dieno also sent out a message to Great-O-Khan for the match on 28th December. He promised it will be the most hideous match of O-Khan’s career. O-Khan’s pride for New Japan will mean nothing when they fight in DDT!

KANON invited an unexpected guest to the ring after the opening match. It was Haruto Sakuraba, the muscle actor who recently chose to side with DAMNATION T.A for his upcoming debut! KANON introduced him to Yuki Iino and said he will crush Iino at Sumo Hall. Sakuraba said Iino is smaller than he though which caused a fight to break out between them. Sakuraba won out by knocking down Iino with a Lariat. He made fun of Iino and said he is so weak that it makes Sakuraba’s muscles cry! Sakuraba finished his introduction by calling himself “MONSTER”. Iino warned him he will be 1,000 times more powerful at Sumo Hall.

How is it that Kazuma Sumi is the only one who keeps losing to Demus’s La Valagueza finisher?

6b. Chris Brookes eliminated Demus by Ring Out (13:39).
6c. Munetatsu Nakamura eliminated Ilusion by Ring Out (16:23).

6f. Chris Brookes eliminated MJ Paul by Ring Out (23:19).
6g. Chris Brookes and Daisuke Sasaki eliminated each other by Double Ring Out (26:42).
6h. KANON eliminated Masahiro Takanashi with the Vietnam Driver II (28:05).

DAMNATION T.A scored one back against SCHADENFREUDE International in the latest match of their feud. It was an Elimination Tag Match and most of the eliminations were from the wrestlers being thrown over the top rope out of the ring. Daisuke Sasaki sacrificed himself to eliminate Chris Brookes by doing a Suplex from the corner to the floor below, knocking both of them out of the match. That left Masahiro Takanashi and KANON as the final two with KANON ending up winning by using the Vietnam Driver II for the only pinfall elimination.

KANON made fun of SCHADENFREUDE for losing their momentum and told Brookes he got what he deserve for having such worthless teammates. Sasaki pointed out he was willing to sacrifice himself for his team even though he doesn’t love wrestling. He wants Brookes to think about the day he goes home to England because Sasaki will never let him come back to Nagoya! Sasaki later said when he wins the KO-D Openweight Title he will spend New Year’s celebrating in Hawaii.

To-y continues to get the better of Yuya Koroku in their matches against each other. He pinned him today with a Hurricanrana just when Koroku thought he had the upper hand. To-y admits he is excited and nervous about the KO-D Tag Team Titles match at Sumo Hall. Just hearing the name Ryogoku makes his heart pound. He told Yuki Ueno it might be love. Has he fallen in love with the Tag Titles? Ueno told him he is showing his full power in every warm up match so far. The more momentum they make, the more intense their excitement will get. Tetsuya Endo told Yuki Iino & Koroku that when they lose twice, they need to win three matches to make up for it. He thinks The 37KAMIINA did not show as much spirit as BURNING did today so the result did not prove who is superior.

There are many wrestlers in DDT who made Akito what he is today. Soma Takao in particular means a lot to him because he is from the same generation. Neither of them currently have a championship but their generation can still fight whether it’s together as a team or as opponents. He then told Takao he can go home. Takao left the ring telling everyone “I hate that guy.”

At the start of the show Danshoku Dieno and Kazuki Hirata played a game of Rock-Paper-Scissors to decide whose entrance music they would use. Dieno won by using Paper against Rock.
