September 23, 2025

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

1. Miu Watanabe, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami defeated Raku, Arisu Endo & Kira Summer when Watanabe submitted Summer with the Canadian Backbreaker (?:??).

The wrestling ring situated inside TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi became a concert stage for a day thanks to the Garafes idol festival being held there for the first time. The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) were one of the musical acts involved and later they along with other Tokyo Joshi Pro wrestlers put together a wrestling match. They even assisted with installing the ring ropes and turnbuckles and also taking them down after the match.


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

September 12, 2025

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

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

1. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Takeshi Masada
2. Akito, Soma Takao & Rukiya Vs Daichi Sato, Yuki Ishida & Hinata Kasai

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

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

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

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

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

The Extreme Title match headlines the next day’s show. Due to circumstances explained later below, Ilusion is currently feeling lonely without his title belts.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~” Results

July 26, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~”, 26/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. Yuki Arai, Raku & Shino Suzuki defeated Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami when Arai submitted Takami with the Scoripion Death Lock (?:??).

The match turned into a big excuse to have a water fight on stage. Everyone armed themselves with water guns and brought buckets filled with water balloons to throw at each other and also the audience.

While not a part of the Tokyo Joshi Pro segment, NωA Jr. were also at Garafes for a performance of their own. During it they explained the rules of pro wrestling to the audience and demonstrated how matches can be won. Yuni just so happened to be the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion so when Kazuma Sumi put him in a Sleeper Hold that was too tight, Yuni tapped out and Daisuke Kiso declared it a title change! Shunma Katsumata then Super Kicked Sumi and pinned him with a School Boy to become the latest champion. Then later in the concert NωA Jr. chased each other onto the stage in the middle of the Momoiro Clover Z performance. Sanshiro Takagi was there too and he gave Katsumata a Stunner. Reni Takagi then pinned him to win the title. After that the rest of Momoiro Clover Z piled on top of her and Juri Suzue was declared the new champion.

Nao Kakuta will be at Yoshiko Hasegawa’s graduation show as a special guest commentator. Another special guest will be Teppei Arita, a Japanese comedian who has written several books about pro wrestling and also hosts his own Youtube series about current stories from around the industry. In fact Hasegawa was interviewed on a recent episode that was uploaded last week.

BASARA “BASARA 283 ~UTAGE~”, 08/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Daiki Shimomura Vs Takeru Inoue
2. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Gouma Ryu Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
3. Daichi Kazato & Munetatsu Nakamura Vs SAGAT & Minoru Fujita
4. Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Takato Nakano
5. Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ayumu Honda Vs Masato Kamino, Lil’ Kraken & Fuminori Abe

Last month Ayumu Honda joined forces with Hyakusho Ikki even though he didn’t really want to. Blame Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi for that. We’ll see how much of a united force they can be in a few days time.

GANBARE☆PRO “WILD AT HEART 2025”, 19/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase Vs Makoto & Chika
2. YuuRI Vs Mio Shirai
3. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ken Ohka
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Mizuki Watase & Shigehiro Irie (c) Vs Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura

High hopes are fueling Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura’s challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. Nakamura would have gotten injured by Mizuki Watase last month if it wasn’t for Sugiura throwing in the towel. Watase gets needing to preserve yourself for the big title match but he and Shigehiro Irie want the challengers to not say die once the actual match takes place.

Bad tension is building up between YuuRI and Mio Shirai. Will it spill over into something worse when they have their singles match?

Chika is coming over from Pro Wrestling Evolution.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25”, 21/07/2025
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Andreza Giant Panda & Raku Vs Kyoko Inoue & Pom Harajuku
2. Special Tag Match: El Desperado & Maki Itoh Vs Chris Brookes & Emi Sakura
3. Special Single Match: Miyu Yamashita Vs Billie Starkz
4. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Yuki Arai

What’s the most chaotic pair of opponents you can find for Chris Brookes & Emi Sakura? How about El Desperado & Maki Itoh! The two originally met in America while working the same GCW show and have been tweeting back and forth for a while about teaming up. Now looks like the perfect time to make it happen. Itoh wants Desperado to learn the Itoh Respect Army dance for their entrance. He didn’t expect that to be part of the deal.

TJPW say a health issue is preventing Max The Impaler from participating at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” so Pom Harajuku needs a new tag team partner. Luckily for her TJPW has decided to bring in Kyoko Inoue as the replacement! The joshi legend currently wrestles for Diana, a promotion that just so happened to join the UJPW recently so I wonder if that new connection helped put this deal together.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~”, 26/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Arai, Raku & Shino Suzuki

Yuki Arai will wrestle at a Garafes show for the first time.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. GRACE PROJECT Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Captain Grace, Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura Vs Tomoya Hirata, Mizuki Watase, Ultra Soki & HIROYA
2. Special Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & El Desperado Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino
3. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs X

A couple of weeks after Despy appears in TJPW he will then show up in BASARA to team with Isami Kodaka. The two of them were specifically put together for Aijin Tag to fight against.

The Grace Group bus company have their own independent wrestling promotion called GRACE PROJECT. They don’t really have their own roster, save for Captain Grace who is the man in charge of the whole thing. Instead their shows are filled with indie wrestlers from across Japan including those who compete in BASARA. So a lot of familiar faces are showing up in their offer match for the show.

SUPER JAPAN “SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ~SUPER JAPAN PRO WRESTLING HATAAGE-SEN”, 19/08/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku Vs MIKAMI
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Yuji, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Fuminori Abe, Takuya Nomura & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa

Looks like Sanshiro Takagi and The Brahman Brothers are going to get their way. For one night Yuji Nagata is going to become Brahman Yuji! That’s bad news for Astronauts and Munenori Sawa because Nagata does look like he has a good bowling arm.

What can I write about a Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki match? Nothing much.

Kuroshio TOKYO Japan will also be on the show.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES ~KAGAYAKI JAPAN MIDDAY YOUTH SERENADE~” Results

March 9, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES ~KAGAYAKI JAPAN MIDDAY YOUTH SERENADE~”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Toyosu PIT
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Maki Itoh defeated Uta Takami with the Itoh Deluxe (?:??).
2. Miu Watanabe, Raku & Haru Kazashiro defeated Pom Harajuku, Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki when Watanabe submitted Suzuki with the Canadian Backbreaker (?:??).

This was Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first event with Garafes for this year. Maki Itoh’s match today was also the first time she ever wrestled at the event.


KO-D 6-Man Tag Titles Vacated, Hirata Might Be Booker Of The Year, Full Cards For Grand Princess & Judgement 2025

February 25, 2025

Today DDT announced the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles have been vacated by DAMNATION T.A. The status of the championship was up in the air since Sunday after KANON was kicked out of the unit. He was one third of the champions along with Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul but the situation between them was “deemed difficult” according to DDT for future title defences to be scheduled. A match to determine the 57th champions will be announced as soon as it is decided on. I swear DAMNATION T.A have the weirdest luck with tag team championships. They either lose them immediately or hold onto them long enough for something within them to fall apart.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE NIGHT BEFORE GRAND PRINCESS ’25”, 01/03/2025
Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall

1. Pom Harajuku Vs Uta Takami
2. Miu Watanabe Vs Ivy Steele

7. Hyper Misao 10th Anniversary Match: Hyper Misao, Rika Tatsumi & Yuki Aino Vs Raku, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko

While Hyper Misao is celebrating her 10th Anniversary, Shoko Nakajima gets one more prelim match against 121000000 before their Princess Tag Team Titles match takes place. She’ll be teaming with Kaya Toribami but I don’t know how much of a difference the bird is going to make to be honest.

DDT “YACCHAINA FIGHT 2025”, 08/03/2025
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. MAO, Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Yukio Naya
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku Vs Shinya Aoki, Keigo Nakamura & Kazuma Sumi
3. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y Vs Minoru Suzuki & Akito

There will be only one prelim match between Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki before the DDT Universal Title bout. Yokohama will host it just under two weeks before the 28th Anniversary show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES ~KAGAYAKI JAPAN MIDDAY YOUTH SERENADE~”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Toyosu PIT

1. Maki Itoh Vs Uta Takami
2. Miu Watanabe, Raku & Haru Kazashiro Vs Pom Harajuku, Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki

I think this will be the first time Maki Itoh is wrestling at a Garafes mat wrestling event.

DDT “IT’S FINALLY HERE!! KAZUKI HIRATA 15TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE EVENT ~ TALK! 15 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 12/03/2025

6. Talk! 15 Years Of HIRATA GO!! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kazuki Hirata, Hiromu Takahashi & Keisuke Ishii Vs YO-HEY, Kenshin Chikano & Soma Takao
*Special Referee: Katsumi Tamagawa.

What a load of surprises Kazuki Hirata has in store for everyone. He’s bringing in Hiromu Takahashi for the main event, Yoshihiko and Pokotan will clash against each other, there will be a Zuncha♪Muscle Survivor reunion, Punch Tominaga is getting thrown in with the weird people and he’ll even have a prize for the winner of the Battle Royal that he promises will cheer them up.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’25”, 16/03/2025
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Yoshiko Hasegawa & Miyu Ashida Vs HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki

This will be the first of three trips to Ota Ward Gymnasium for Tokyo Joshi Pro this year. Meiko Satomura will face Yuki Arai in what may become Satomura’s final appearance in the promotion before her retirement. Raku has challenged Pom Harajuku for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title and is doing so out of love. Aja Kong is going to cause some destruction again. Moka Miyamoto is going to bounce off of Max The Impaler like a tennis ball being thrown into a wall. Kakeru Sekiguchi returns to TJPW to team with Mahiro Kiryu again and this time she’ll be introduced to Kiryu’s cat Haruna Neko.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2025 ~28TH ANNIVERSARY 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 20/03/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Toru Owashi Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Makoto Oishi, Akito & Soma Takao Vs Yukio Naya, Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura

5. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Kazusada Higuchi & Shunma Katsumata Double Comeback Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
6. Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs KANON
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & To-y (c) Vs Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura
8. DDT Extreme Title: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine
*Special Referee: Amon Tsurumi.
9. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki
10. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

Meanwhile Chris Brookes decided to defend his KO-D Openweight Title against his longtime CDK teammate Masahiro Takanashi. But this is not being done out of love or friendship. The two want to give DDT fans a fight to remember to close out one of the most important shows of the year for the company.

Danshoku Dieno and Super Sasadango Machine are threatening to give everyone the worst match ever for their DDT Extreme Title bout. Hisaya Imabayashi will be turning back into Amon Tsurumi for one night only to officiate the match.

He doesn’t understand why he’s been expelled from DAMNATION T.A but KANON wants to get revenge on Daisuke Sasaki. DDT quickly put together the singles match between them for this show.

It’s planned to be a five hour show but the card still has to be crammed together a little bit. That means Kazusada Higuchi and Shunma Katsumata will make their respective returns from injury in the same match. It’s also a good excuse to have a Harimao Vs NωA Jr. trios match.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Hideki Okatani Return Match: Hideki Okatani Vs X
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

Whoever comes out of Korakuen as the KO-D Champion in March will return there in April to defend it against the D GENERATIONS CUP winner Yuya Koroku.

KANON was kicked out of DAMNATION T.A to be replaced by the return of Hideki Okatani! He isn’t ready to wrestle again just yet but once April comes around, the world will see what this new version of Okatani will get up to.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES ~ AUTUMN APPETITE EXCITEMENT PRESENT”, 12/10/2024
Tokyo GOTANDA G6/G7
??? Fans

1. Pom Harajuku defeated Uta Takami (?:??).
2. Miu Watanabe & Raku defeated Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki (?:??).

Another Garafes concert featured The Up Up Girls among the lineup sing songs and also wrestle. Wakana Uehara and Pom Harajuku were along for the ride, sticking around to do commentary for the matches they weren’t involved in.

One of the other events that took place during Garafes was an arm wrestling tournament between a bunch of idols. The eventual winner was given a bonus arm wrestling match against a mysterious masked woman named M-chan who was wearing a familiar pink wrestling costume. M-chan easily defeated her opponent.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 13/10/2024
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1A: Toga Vs HIMAWARI

5. Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Kaya Toribami
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto
7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume Vs Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku

It’s been so long since TJPW had a tag team of sisters. Kira Summer is bringing over her sister Miki Fortune to team up together. Fortune’s a bit of a wild one so anyone expecting her to act just like Summer will be in for a surprise.

The Next Generation Tournament begins with on this show.

Shoko Nakajima will be in America for Deadlock Pro competing in the Battle Of The Best final so she will be missing this show. Yuki Kamifuku will also be absent because she will be defending the Asian Double Crown over in the Philippines.

DDT “DDT PRO WRESTLING IN IKEBUKURO FULL MOON FESTIVAL 2024”, 19/10/2024
Tokyo Ikebukuro Nishiguchi Park Outdoor Theater

3. Special Tag Match: Akito & Pokotan Vs Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko

5. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Takayuki Ueki, Takeshi Masada & Mecha Mummy Vs Keigo Nakamura, To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi

A team of five from DDT’s new generation are going to challenge for the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles. SCHADENFREUDE have Takayuki Ueki subbing in for Antonio Honda but he was part of the team when they originally won the belts anyway. So it may as well be the champions entering the match at full force.

MIKAMI makes another DDT appearance this year.

One day before the DDT Extreme Title is defended, Akito and Danshoku Dieno are facing off in a wacky tag match with Pokotan and Yoshihiko also involved. The stipulation for the title match hasn’t been chosen yet but it would be leaving it very late if this match is meant to set it up.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA

I bet it will have changed by the time this show happens but the two remaining Right To Challenge Shields are both currently being held by Soma Takao.

DDT is holding a few matches at a shopping area in Saitama. It is an outdoor show so bad weather on the day could cancel the event. The show notes say it can go ahead if it’s light rain but anything that can be described as stormy will call it off.

The members of NωA have promised to perform all of their songs during the show for their final live perfomance together.

DDT’s crew are going to cause some chaos over in To-y’s neck of the woods. He is still serving as an unofficial ambassador for Naraha Town in order to pay off the trillion yen debt he owes to the area. At least the rest of The 37KAMIINA are helping him out along with Ishida for a big Falls Count Anywhere match.

Tsukina Umino is from Ice Ribbon. She recently fought and lost to YuuRI in a match for the ICExInfinity Title. One of her teammates is London Machine, a masked gimmick that has mostly appeared in ChocoPro. I think in one of his first appearances it was Seiya Morohashi under the mask but I don’t know if it’s been him every time.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~SCORCHING SUMMER SPLASH~”, 27/07/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. Raku defeated Uta Takami (?:??).
2. Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Pom Harajuku & Shino Suzuki when Watanabe submitted Suzuki with the Canadian Backbreaker (?:??).

Tokyo Joshi Pro and The Up Up Girls took on another summer gig at a Garafes concert after appearing at a previous one a couple of months ago. The summer themed fun continued this time around with Raku using an inflatable dolphin pool toy as a weapon against Uta Takami. Then in the main event Miu Watanabe, Suzume, Pom Harajuku and Shino Suzuki all attacked each other with super soakers, buckets of water and water balloons.
