BASARA “BASARA 309 ~UTAGE~”, 23/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Semi Final: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Daiki Shimomura with a Spinning Cradle (5:44).
2. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Semi Final: Lil’ Kraken defeated FUMA with the Period. (8:03).
3. Isami Kodaka, SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Takeru Inoue when Kodaka pinned Kamino with a Modified Cradle (11:33).
4. 3 Vs 4 Vs 2 Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu, Daichi Kazato & Seiya Morohashi defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga& Gouma Ryu and Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano when Nakatsu submitted Ryu with an Armbar (7:25).
5. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament – Final: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Lil’ Kraken with the Dragon Kicker (13:08).

Out of all the BASARA wrestlers who want to be the next challenger for Shuji Ishikawa, it is Takumi Tsukamoto who is the last one standing. He used Daiki Shimomura’s Hurricanrana against him to get a three count and advance to the final. Meeting him there was Lil’ Kraken who scored an upset win over FUMA earlier in the show. Tsukamoto beat him down and almost won by countout but Kraken made a last gasp comeback. That wasn’t enough though and Tsukamoto put him away with the Dragon Kicker to win the tournament. He will now face Ishikawa for the Union MAX Title on 2nd August. He heard that Ishikawa wants to remain champion for ten years Tsukamoto will not allow that to happen because that would mean Ishikawa is champion until he’s 60!

Isami Kodaka got to beat his recent string of bad results in BASARA although he was in a tired heap by the end of his match. He got to pin Masato Kamino by dodging his Lariat and then cradling him for the three count. Kamino was pissed off to lose to someone that was pretty much beaten, so much so that Takato Nakano joked he was lying dead on the mat. Kodaka said there is nothing wrong with collapsing after a match and there is nothing wrong about getting old either. After all, he thought Takato & Kamino were both young and here they are already turned 30. He then announced he invited a friend to come to the 2nd August show and the two of them would like to fight Aijin Tag for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. Kodaka’s partner is going to be Yuko Miyamoto! Aijin Tag accepted the challenge because it will be their chance to surpass Yankee Two Kenju!

The 3 Way Trios match was changed into a irregular 3 Way Match because of Gouma Ryu. He decided to team with the other members of WizRYU instead of Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano. So the match ended up being between one team of three wrestlers, one team of four wrestlers and one team of two wrestlers.

The 2nd August show will be at Korakuen Hall and Ryota Nakatsu revealed he is trying to put together a special match with an outside wrestler. BASARA have already decided which wrestler they want to appear but have not made an offer to them yet. But according to Nakatsu it is somebody he has not wrestled many singles matches against and he would consider this person to be a rival of his.

The two singles matches underneath could end up being previews for a non-existent match down the line. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao don’t have a problem with wrestling Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi under normal circumstances but they’re not so enthusiastic over the reason why the these matches are happening here.

DDT “CHARISMANIA IV”, 02/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: MJ Paul Vs Ryunosuke Nagai
2. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs Keisuke Ishii

The further Daisuke Sasaki moves on from Best Of The Super Jr. the better. At least he doesn’t have to think about the tournament again for another 14 years. Now he can think about defending the O-40 Title with two opponents now chosen for the next title bout. Shuji Ishikawa and Keisuke Ishii both fit the bill so Sasaki will be fighting both in a 3 Way Match.

Ryunosuke Nagai is the 29 year old son of Mitsuya Nagai. He his pro debut last December and is showing up to “CHARISMANIA IV” for a match against MJ Paul.

The remaining lineup of the show at the moment is Hideki Okatani, Ilusion, Minoru Fujita, Yasu Urano, Sangre Aztca Jr. and Naohiro Katsumi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’26”, 18/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Aja Kong Vs Arisu Endo
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Wakana Uehara
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

We’re approaching the match that will either break the cycle or just start it all over again. Yuki Arai will be next defending the Princess Of Princess Title against Miyu Yamashita. In recent memory Yamashita once beat Arai in just over a minute but Arai then got to make Yamashita tap out in a 6 Way No. 1 Contender’s match that eventually led Arai to becoming the champion. With that said, Arai does not feel like she can call herself the true champion unless she can beat Yamashita one on one. Yamashita is coming into this match having just won the EVE International Title in England. Doing that made her want to win back the Princess Title even more. Is there no end to her insatiable desire for winning that championship again?!?

Last year’s “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS” had Kyoraku Kyomei beating Daydream in a defence of the Princess Tag Team Titles. This time around Daydream are the champs and they want a rematch at the show to avenge that defeat. The only problem is Kyoraku Kyomei do not want to challenge for the belts right now because they do not feel it is the right time to do so. They couldn’t win the titles in Las Vegas earlier this year and they don’t feel ready to climb that mountain again this soon. Daydream wants the match to happen anyway and it looks like they got their way. Protests from Nakajima & Misao may be on the way unless something happens to change their minds.

There’s no such trepidation in regards to the International Princess Title match though. Wakana Uehara is hungry to become the champion and isn’t shy about making puns about her appetite when it comes to challenging Suzume for the championship.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026”, 11/08/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Hinata Kasai 1st Anniversary Debut Match ~ Special Tag Match: Jun Kasai & Hinata Kasai Vs X & X
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Time Delayed Entry Battle Royal: Daichi Sato (c) Vs X
3. Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & X Vs Antonio Honda & X
4. Dramatic Dream Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Kaisei Takechi

It is only a matter of time until Hinata Kasai gets to team up with his dad Jun Kasai. It’s going to happen right when he celebrates the end of his first year as a pro wrestler. In the meantime, Hinata made it his goal to get his first direct win in a match before this show takes place.

BASARA “BASARA 308 ~UTAGE~” Results

June 9, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 308 ~UTAGE~”, 09/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Shuji Ishikawa, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano defeated Takeru Inoue, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Ishikawa pinned Inoue with the Fire Thunder (8:53).
2. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Round 1: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Isami Kodaka with the Zudon (6:25).
3. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Round 1: FUMA defeated Daichi Kazato with the Armbar (9:01).
4. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Round 1: Daiki Shimomura defeated SAGAT with a Samson Clutch (4:23).
5. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Round 1: Lil’ Kraken defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Period. (10:04).
6. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Ayumu Honda when Kamino pinned Hiroshi with the Lariat (14:31).
*V4 for Aijin Tag.

Aijin Tag are on fire at the moment. They are also fully prepared this time if any team out there tries to steal the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles from them. No new challengers stepped forward so Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino were free to celebrate with some energy drinks. Kamino decided to raise a toast for muscles because softness cannot overcome hardness. Nakano thinks he tried to make something up on the spot and that was all he could come up with. Backstage, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi apologized to Ayumu Honda for losing the match. Honda whispered something in his ear and according to Hiroshi, Honda said he must push himself hard until he is peeing blood.

The tournament semi finals on 23rd June will be Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Daiki Shimomura and FUMA Vs Lil’ Kraken. Tsukamoto beat Isami Kodaka in a short match but needed to hit his finisher twice to pin him. Daichi Kazato showed respect to FUMA because of their previous connection in Asian Kung Fu Revolution. He referred to FUMA by his surname Tsumaki and said he helped create the Daichi Kazato that exists today. Shimomura beat SAGAT with the Samson Clutch but SAGAT protested to the ref he kicked out before three. Shimomura calls it a messy win but only the result matters to him right now. Kraken said he’s been getting into shape and doing other things to prepare himself, although he considers luck may have played a part in him beating Ryota Nakatsu. Still, he won the match and is going to celebrate by visiting a famous hot spring in Utsunomiya.

Shuji Ishikawa was disappointed to see Kodaka get knocked out in the first round. Tsukamoto is also noticing that Kodaka has been losing his momentum lately and thinks he should be able to do more. Kodaka said he isn’t going to give up because he never gives up easily. In Ishikawa’s mind none of this matters because he decided he is going to hold onto the Union MAX Title for ten years.

Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament

June 2, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 308 ~UTAGE~”, 09/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Round 1A: Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Isami Kodaka
2. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Round 1B: SAGAT Vs Daiki Shimomura
3. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Round 1A: FUMA Vs Daichi Kazato
4. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Round 1B: Lil’ Kraken Vs Ryota Nakatsu
5. Takeru Inoue, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga Vs Shuji Ishikawa, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano
6. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Ayumu Honda

Normally around this time of year BASARA would hold their annual Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament. This might still be it but they have not branded the competition as such so far. Instead Shuji Ishikawa wants the BASARA locker room to figure out for themselves who should get the next Union MAX Title shot. There are eight challengers, which isn’t enough to do a full blown Chouten playoff. Every match in the first round will have a 15 minute time limit. In the case of a draw happening, both wrestlers will be eliminated.

BASARA “BASARA 309 ~UTAGE~”, 23/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Round 2: Winner Of Round 1A Vs Winner Of Round 1B
2. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Round 2: Winner Of Round 1A Vs Winner Of Round 1B
3. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament – Final: Winner Of Block A Vs Winner Of Block B

The time limit of the semi finals will be 20 minutes each. The double elimination rule for a draw will still be in effect for that round. The final will have no time limit in the hopes of guaranteeing a winner. Imagine the company going through all that trouble just to balls it up at the last hurdle.

BASARA “BASARA 307 ~KOO~” Results

May 29, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 307 ~KOO~”, 29/05/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Lil’ Kraken & Fuminori Abe defeated Daiki Shimomura & Takeru Inoue when Kraken pinned Inoue with the Period. (11:01).
2. Grace Project Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Yuya Susumu & Captain Grace defeated Isami Kodaka, Takumi Tsukamoto & Gouma Ryu when Sugiura pinned Ryu with the Right Elbow With Model Six Laws (6:39).
3. FUMA defeated Seiya Morohashi with an Armbar (0:14).
3a. Rematch: FUMA defeated Seiya Morohashi with an Armbar (10:05).
4. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Ryota Nakatsu, Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida when Hiroshi pinned Kazato with the Perfect Plex (10:15).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano when Nakano pinned Urano after the Aijin III (17:11).
*V3 for Aijin Tag.
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated SAGAT with the Running Knee Lift (14:24).
*V4 for Shuji Ishikawa.

With another Union MAX Title defence under his belt, Shuji Ishikawa is finding more wrestlers coming forward to challenge him. SAGAT asked if he could get a rematch soon but Ishikawa told him it is way too soon for him to get another title match. Lil’ Kraken then declared himself the next challenger only for Isami Kodaka to knock him out mid-sentence. Ishikawa then found himself surrounded by five wrestlers: Daichi Kazato, Ryota Nakatsu, Daiki Shimomura, Takumi Tsukamoto and FUMA. Ishikawa joked about being popular lately and wishing the five men were five women instead. He told the group to decide among themselves who the next challenger will be because there are too many of them for him to take on all at once and he only wants to fight the strongest one. They all left to allow Ishikawa to end the show by himself. He talked about being able to hold the MAX Title he was never able to win when Union Pro existed. He will continue to beat strong challengers and continue being the champion for the next ten years until he turns 60!

Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi approached Aijin Tag after the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles claiming to have a message from Ayumu Honda. According to Hiroshi, Honda called Aijin Tag a third rate tag team who are not worthy of being champions. Judo is the national sport of Japan so Hiroshi & Honda want to challenge Aijin Tag for the tag titles on 9th June! Hiroshi added that the Iron Fist Tag Title belts would look better next to Honda’s black belt. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino both admitted to feeling banged up after fighting Fujita Pro Wrestling School. Their knees in particular were targeted by the challengers but they’re certain they will be in good shape for the next defence. Yasu Urano called the result a fluke and if the two teams fought each other another ten times, he and Minoru Fujita would win all of those ten matches.

Seiya Morohashi attacked FUMA during his entrance and they brawled around ringside. When they got into the ring and the match officially began, FUMA quickly caught Morohashi in an Armbar to win by submission. Morohashi demanded a rematch but only got it after he gave FUMA a dogeza style apology. Morohashi quickly lost his temper again but the rematch went ahead without controversy and FUMA made him tap to another Armbar. The two bowed to each other after the match and shook hands. They were also complimentary towards each other in their post-match interviews backstage until Morohashi handled FUMA’s deer hide jacket too hard.

Shizuoka Shimizu Marine Building

3. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs SAGAT

SAGAT has become the first wrestler in BASARA to get a three count pin on Shuji Ishikawa. He’s now aiming to do it again to become the new Union MAX Champion.

Just when Aijin Tag felt like they have cleaned out BASARA’s tag division, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano have appeared and even stolen one of the Iron Fist Tag Team Title belts! It’s all so Fujita can promote his Fujita Pro Wrestling School project and he’s even thinking about renaming the tag titles under that brand if he and Urano properly win them.

What was supposed to be a Union Pro tribute tag team has fallen apart after FUMA and Seiya Morohashi failed to win the Iron Fist Tag Titles. They both blame each other for the loss so will settle their differences in the ring.

BASARA “BASARA 306 ~UTAGE~” Results

May 1, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 306 ~UTAGE~”, 01/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Yasu Urano defeated Takeru Inoue with a Headlock (9:10).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida defeated Banana Senga and Gouma Ryu (9:28).
3. SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Isami Kodaka & Shuji Ishikawa when SAGAT pinned Ishikawa with the Gore Grind (11:47).
4. 4 Way Tag Match: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato, Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura and Lil’ Kraken & Akira Jo when Hiroshi pinned Kraken with the Perfect Plex (8:57).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated FUMA & Seiya Morohashi when Kamino pinned FUMA with the Lariat (18:50).
*V2 for Aijin Tag.

With a second successful title defence having just taken place, Aijin Tag are feeling like they are BASARA’s best team out there. They asked for any other teams to come out and challenge them when Yasu Urano appeared. Urano then called down Minoru Fujita to join him. They talked about the Fujita Pro Wrestling School Youtube channel that has been running for around six years now yet neither of them can really explain what the entire project is meant to be. If it’s a marketing brand then they need to promote it somehow and Urano thinks the best way to do that is turn the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles into the Fujita Pro Wrestling School Tag Team Titles. The two teams then got into a fight and while Aijin Tag came out on top, Urano & Fujita fled the ring with one of the tag title belts. They demanded to get a title match at 29th May, which Aijin Tag accepted.

Meanwhile FUMA & Seiya Morohashi began to blame each other backstage over losing in the main event. Morohashi thought FUMA could have finished the champions off if he had fought a little harder. FUMA suggested he could have been able to submit Takato Nakano or Masato Kamino if Morohashi did a better job of holding the other wrestler back. The two ended up challenging each other to a match on 29th May.

A regular Spear followed by the Gore Grind resulted in SAGAT scoring a surprise victory over Shuji Ishikawa. He quickly challenged him for the Union MAX Title on 29th May. Ishikawa accepted because he wants to get revenge on SAGAT for being the first person in BASARA to pin him for a three count.

It’s unusual to see a wrestler enter a Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial for the second time and even more unusual when it happens in a short amount of time. Ayato Yoshida was back in the court room just over a month after his first appearance for the alleged crime of threatening Gouma Ryu somewhere in Tokyo on 30th April. He tried to grab the microphone from Banana Senga but unintentionally threw him down, adding a second charge to this trial. The witness was a referee who complained about Yoshida calling him shitty but Yoshida’s defence was to ask what is wrong with telling a referee he is crap at his job? Eventually everyone in the trial wanted to fight Yoshida but he easily defeated all of them at once to be proven Not Guilty. He continued to beat a few of them around the ring while he was leaving.

Mune Returning From Injury, Aniki Vs Toga, Hiroshi’s 15th Anniversary

April 13, 2026

I am making the (somewhat foolish) trip to Las Vegas this week to see Tokyo Joshi Pro amongst other wrestling shows (also Golden Knights ice hockey and a Battlebots taping of all things). Updates on here might get delayed while I’m over there but if I find time to write about them, it will show up eventually. Before I go there will be a DDT Around The World article coming up along with a guide for the TJPW Las Vegas show. They are both coming up tomorrow.

0. Dramatic Dark Match: Ilusion Vs X
1. Jun Akiyama & Rukiya Vs Akito & Masami Inahata

This is the match order for Wednesday’s DDT show in Korakuen Hall. At the moment it has not been announced who Ilusion will face in the dark match.

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima Vs Choun Shiryu, PSYCHO & Yuya Susumu
2. Moeka Haruhi Vs Ram Kaichow
3. YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashihita
4. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu

7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

In good news, Munetatsu Nakamura has been cleared to return to the ring after spending the last three months recovering from a herniated cervical disc. Ganbare☆Pro has added him to their Korakuen show at the end of the month, putting him in the opener along with Choun Shiryu to even out the teams.

BASARA “BASARA 306 ~UTAGE~”, 01/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida Vs Banana Senga Vs Gouma Ryu
2. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs FUMA & Seiya Morohashi

The specter of Union Pro continues to hang over BASARA with the latest challengers approaching Aijin Tag. The duo of FUMA & Seiya Morohashi are the next team to challenge for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles.

Hang on we just had Ayato Yoshida on trial last month. What the hell kind of trouble has he gotten into this time?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND ’26”, 04/05/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ryo Mizunami Vs Toga
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Haru Kazashiro

Yesterday Ryo Mizunami announced she has rejoined Sendai Girls after previously being affiliated with them from 2007-2012. If there was any worry that the news means she would no longer appear in TJPW anymore than fear not because she is showing up for Golden Week to have a singles match against Toga!

BASARA “TRANS-AM ★ HIROSHI GOLDEN 15TH ANNIVERSARY”, 15/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Kazuki Hirata Vs Daichi Kazato
2. Minoru Fujita & Antonio Honda Vs Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto
3. MEN’S Teioh, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga Vs Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Takeru Inoue
4. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Ayumu Honda

I’m thinking over the fifteen years of Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and wonder how things could have been if he never suffered that shoulder injury back in 2014. Back then DDT struck a deal with All Japan for AJPW to “rent” Hiroshi for six months. He then dislocated his shoulder right before he was supposed to start his AJPW excursion. When he recovered he got to do a handul of tours with them in 2015 and 2016 but it wasn’t anything worth talking about at the time. And then he made the switch from Americana pro wrestler into the yoga weirdo we see today. But he’s our yoga weirdo so it’s nice to see this milestone get celebrated. Whenever he hangs out with Ayumu Honda he always speaks on his behalf, often misinterpretating his promos. Honda will get a chance to shut him up on his special day.

One of Hiroshi’s influences is on the card. He has both fought and teamed with MEN’S Teioh several times back in Hiroshi’s Union Pro days.

BASARA “BASARA 303 ~UTAGE~” Results

March 27, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 303 ~UTAGE~”, 27/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Kaji Tomato defeated Takeru Inoue with the Speed (8:18).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Yoshida submitted Ryu and Senga with a Double Half Crab Hold (8:04).
3. The Outsider & Sumo Master defeated Master T & Judomaster when The Outsider pinned Judomaster with the V Slider (9:17).
4. SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita defeated Daichi Kazato, Tsutomu Oosugi & Shuji Ishikawa when SAGAT pinned Kazato with the Gore Grind (11:31).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) when Nakano pinned Shimomura with the Takagari (20:08).
*Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura fail in V3. Aijin Tag become the 16th Iron Fist Tag Team Champions!

Aijin Tag have now become the three time Iron Fist Tag Team Champions but they already have their first challengers approaching. When Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino were celebrating their victory, SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken entered the ring to challenge them for the belts. It is SAGAT’s idea because Kraken had to remind him they already got a title shot back in January. Nakano told them they have no principles but SAGAT’s argument that if they were to just wait for another title shot it wouldn’t come. Aijin Tag accepted his reasoning and will put the titles on the line in Osaka on 12th April. Backstage Nakano told Kamino their next goal should be to break the record for most title defences because the teams that are on top of that list are freelancers like Speed Of Sounds and Astronauts. Nakano thinks a BASARA affiliated team like Aijin Tag deserves to hold the record instead!

Something unprecidented happened in regards to Match #3. Both Ryota Nakatsu and FUMA suddenly suffered from love sickness and had to pull out of the show at the last minute. BASARA were able to find some mysterious newcomers to fill in for the missing wrestlers. Judomaster was now teaming with Master T instead of FUMA and Yuki Ishida now had The Outsider as his partner. Ishida was angry over this turn of events because today was meant to be Harimao’s last appearance in BASARA as a unit. The remaining members Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura came to the show to be in their corner. Ishida stormed out of the match and left The Outsider to fight by himself. But when things were going bad for The Outsider, he called for help from somebody named Sumo Master. And wouldn’t you know it, Sumo Master suddenly appeared and came to the rescue.

Ayato Yoshida was not a popular person in the court room today. Everyone was booing him and he didn’t put up much effort towards changing people’s minds. He was on trial for allegedly shouting verbal abuse towards Minoru Fujita. The defence provided by Gouma Ryu is that kind of behaviour is sometimes acceptable between pro wrestlers while they fight in the ring. However, Banana Senga had evidence that showed the nasty comments were made inside the locker room. Fujita was called up as a witness and he said Yoshida thinks of him like his junior which is why he treats him this way. Ryu gave up trying to defend Yoshida and teamed up with Senga to fight him. Yoshida easily beat the two of them and by winning the match he was acquitted of any wrong doing.
