She makes one more appearance next month to fight in their ring one last time. She reunites with Takumi Iroha for the special match against the home team of YuuRI & Yoshiko Hasegawa.
How will Riara’s cabaret skills work against Ram Kaichow? Ram has probably been in the room for more seedy stuff throughout her entire wrestling career than Riara did as a hostess!

The AJPW TV 6-Man Tag Team Titles are a separate matter and they are defending those belts in All Japan this weekend.
DDT’s plan for the championship after this is to hold a 1 day tournament a few days later to crown new champions. Teams and other tournament details are currently being decided on.

BASARA “BASARA 227 ~UTAGE~”, 29/08/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld
1. SAGAT defeated Yasu Urano with the Goregrind (7:50).
2. Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka defeated Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine when Isaka pinned Kodaka with an Inside Cradle (10:37).
3. KUBITO, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Fuminori Abe when Kazato pinned Nakano with the OPA! (8:21).
4. Jacket Match: Gouma Ryu defeated Ryota Nakatsu by Disqualification after Nakatsu attacked Ryu with a weapon (R3 1:04).
5. IRON FIST Tag Team Titles: Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Shimomura pinned Oosugi with the Asai DDT (13:35).
*V1 for Sento Minzoku.
6. Union MAX Title: FUMA defeated Takumi Tsukamoto (c) with the Jumping Cross Armbreaker (16:21).
*Takumi Tsukamoto fails in V1. FUMA becomes the 20th Union MAX Champion!
For the first time in three years BASARA held their all you can drink “~UTAGE~” show again in Shin-Kiba 1st RING. In the main event FUMA defeated Takumi Tsukamoto to become a three time Union MAX Champion! By beating Tsukamoto today and also Ryota Nakatsu recently, FUMA now thinks he has gotten revenge for all of his biggest failings in the last few years in his bid to become champion again. There are more wrestlers out there he wants to get revenge on. The first one on his mind is a certain wrestler from Osaka who he has never beaten. His name is Eisa8 and FUMA fought him often under a mask in Okinawa Pro. He is going to see what his own schedule is like next month before he challenges Eisa8 to a title match. BASARA will be in Osaka on 23rd September and FUMA also wants the promotion to run a show in Gunma on 14th October.
Gouma Ryu bribed the referee with money to give him the advantage against Nakatsu in the Jacket Match. It caused the ref to count slowly after Nakatsu knocked out Ryu. The ref was given more money by Ryu on the canvas to stop the 10 count entirely. The ref also fast counted Nakatsu and ignored Ryu using his law book as a weapon. When Nakatsu took the book from him and threatened to hit him back, the ref was bribed into disqualifying Nakatsu entirely.
A big upset in early in the show saw Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka win as a tag team for the first time against Sento Minzoku. Isaka ended up dodging Isami Kodaka’s finisher and used an Inside Cradle to pin him for the three count. With this result Kraken suggested they challenge Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita for the IRON FIST Tag Titles on 18th September. Fujita later accepted the challenge. He & Shimomura just beat Speed Of Sounds today so what chance do Kraken & Isaka have?
Daichi Kazato announced that Asian Kung Fu Revolution will be producing the 17th September show.

BASARA “BASARA 216 ~KOO~”, 18/04/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld
1. Takumi Tsukamoto, Ryota Nakatsu & Yasu Urano defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Nakatsu pinned Kazato with the V Slider (10:21).
2. FUMA & KUBITO defeated Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita when FUMA pinned Shimomura with the Heavy Metal Anthem (13:13).
3. Special Rule “I’m Sorry” Match: Isami Kodaka defeated Gouma Ryu when Ryu said “I’m Sorry” (13:55).
4. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka when Kamino pinned Kraken with the Lariat (16:40).
*V2 for Aijin Tag.
5. Union MAX Title: Banana Senga (c) defeated SAGAT with the Koryu (18:23)
*V1 for Banana Senga.
Things are getting serious for Banana Senga. After defending the Union MAX Title against SAGAT he told the fans he has a big responsibility as a Double Crown champion (he is also one of the TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Champions). He thinks the MAX Title is a heavyweight championship so he is trying to gain weight and be over 100kg. Takumi Tsukamoto entered the ring and said he was so excited watching the main event he wants to use his MAX Title shot right now. Instead the two agreed to have their title match on 13th May because that is when both men are available for the same BASARA show. Backstage Senga also admitted by being champion he makes more money so he wants to save up for a hair transplant! He mentioned he can get it done in Turkey where it is one third of the price as in Japan.
The first time Aijin Tag were IRON FIST Tag Champions their reign only lasted for one defence. They can rest a little easy now that their second reign has already surpassed that. Takato Nakano feels motivated he & Masato Kamino can reach 10 title defences when all is said and done. They beat the Tochigi team of Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka. The challengers expected the result but they still think they did a good job teaming together for the first time. Isaka would like to stick around in BASARA and team with Kraken more.
The match between Isami Kodaka and Gouma Ryu had a special rule attached. Whoever would say “I’m sorry” first would lose. It led to Kodaka and Ryu demanding each other wrestler to apologize while they were putting each other in different holds. Ryu ended up getting tired and tried to make Kodaka apologize for putting him in this situation. Kodaka instead said it was ok and asked him to continue wrestling. Ryu understood and apologized, losing the match in the process.
After the opening match, Gouma Ryu approached Ryota Nakatsu and handed him money to be in his corner for his match against Kodaka. Nakatsu accepted and briefly interfered in the later match.

BASARA “BASARA 215 ~MOKOFUKUSO~”, 15/04/2023
Yokohama Radiant Hall
??? Fans – Withheld
1. KUBITO Vs Tsutomu Oosugi defeated KUBITO with the Tsuki no Ishi (8:15).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Daichi Kazato defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Kazato pinned Senga with the Explosive Ax Bomber (8:05).
3. Basara Strange Style Jacket Match: FUMA defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi by Knockout (R5 0:00).
4. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Lil’ Kraken & Yasu Urano when Nakano pinned Kraken after the Lariat from Kamino (12:17).
5. Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa defeated Ryuichi Sekine, Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita when SAGAT submitted Shimomura with the Argentine Backbreaker (13:28).
6. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Match: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Isami Kodaka with the Zudon (13:28).
Takumi Tsukamoto now gets a Union MAX Title shot but he has to wait to see who is the champion later this week. Banana Senga will be defending the title against SAGAT in a few days time on 18th April. Tsukamoto said he shares the record for most MAX Title defences in a single reign with Ryota Nakatsu. He wants to be the champion again so he can surpass that record. He feels the pressure to get it done because he beat Isami Kodaka to get here.
Aijin Tag won their preview match against Lil’ Kraken but thought Yasu Urano was more of a threat than their actual next challenger for the IRON FIST Tag Titles.
The Jacket Match ended with both FUMA and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi strangling each other over the corner ropes with their gi belts wrapped around each other’s necks. Hiroshi lost consciousness first so FUMA was declared the winner by Referee Stoppage.
Today’s court case accused Daichi Kazato of violating the Cannabis Control Law. Banana Senga told Gouma Ryu he heard rumours of Kazato smoking weed in locker rooms night after night. Kazato’s defence was he is only smoking pine weed because he needs alpha-pinene, which is found in pine. Kazato beat Senga in the wrestling portion of the trial to prove his innocence.

BASARA “BASARA 212 ~KOO~”, 28/02/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld
1. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato defeated Lil’ Kraken & Tsutomu Oosugi when Kazato pinned Kraken with the OPA! (7:33).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Antonio Honda defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Honda pinned Senga with the Bionic Elbow (10:32).
3. FUMA & KUBITO defeated Masato Kamino & Yasu Urano when KUBITO pinned Kamino with the Death Metal Roll (11:35).
4. SAGAT defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the Gore Grind (9:30).
5. Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Daiki Shimomura & Fuminori Abe when Higuchi pinned Shimomura with the Brain Claw Slam (14:45).
6. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Isamiashi Zan (17:55).
*V5 for Isami Kodaka.
When the main event was over Isami Kodaka told Takato Nakano he has grown up a lot. But despite Nakano’s progress, Kodaka is not ready to give up his spot on top yet and challenges Nakano to face him as many times as he wants. Nakano was about to challenge him to a rematch for next month only for Kodaka to cut him off and say he’s now at the back of the line. However he also thanked him for joining BASARA in the first place. Banana Senga then came down to the ring and challenged Kodaka for the Union MAX Title on 28th March. Kodaka accepted and is led to believe Senga’s sudden move into singles wrestling was influenced by his tag partner Tsutomu Oosugi recently doing the same elsewhere.
The other half of the IRON FIST TAG Champions also lost his match. Masato Kamino was pinned by KUBITO and he tried to blame it on Yasu Urano. When Nakano found out about it backstage he told Kamino they have to give KUBITO a title shot now even though KUBITO did not ask for one. Aijin Tag agreed with each other to put the belts on the line against KUBITO & FUMA next month.
Antonio Honda was taken to trial accused of committing fraud. Senga said signed a contract to have pro wrestling match in Shin-Kiba 1st RING and then accused Honda of not being a pro wrestler. Honda tried to prove his innocence by describing Gongitsune as a wrestling technique but Senga then accused him of plagiarism. He then turned up the heat after Honda admitted to turning down a booking in favour of doing non-wrestling related live performances recently. However Honda defended himself by saying he takes pro wrestling more seriously than either Senga or Gouma Ryu. The trial devolved into a 3 Way Match that ended with Honda beating Senga. Honda admitted he’s been taking pro wrestling for granted so he now entrusts his dreams to Senga. That is what convinced Senga to challenge Kodaka for the Union MAX Title later in the show.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – A Block Final: Fuminori Abe defeated FUMA with the I’ll Be Back Style Ham Roll (11:20).
2. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – B Block Final: Yasu Urano defeated Masato Kamino with a Urahane Origatame (13:16).
3. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Gouma & Banana Senga defeated Isami Kodaka when Gouma & Senga pinned Kodaka after a Double Neckbreaker (5:45).
4. Takumi Tsukamoto, Takato Nakano & Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Tsukamoto pinned Kazato with a Brainbuster Slam (9:43).
5. Isami Kodaka, Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita defeated Ryota Nakatasu, SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa when Kodaka pinned SAGAT with the Modified Samson Clutch (13:12).
6. Chouten ~Itadaki~ – Final: Fuminori Abe defeated Yasu Urano with the Modified Manjigatame (23:32).
Fuminori Abe wins the Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament after he defeated Yasu Urano in the final! Afterwards he challenged Isami Kodaka for the Union MAX Title at Korakuen Hall on 11th December.
The return of the Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial brought Kodaka to court accused of blackmail. The Prosecutor Banana Senga said Kodaka used blackmail to deprive Gouma of his full name, Gouma Ryu. Since Gouma was Kodaka’s attorney in this trial, he had to defend that incident. He lost the Ryu part of his name because of a match stipulation and had to follow the rules. The two agreed if they could beat Kodaka then they could get Gouma’s name back. They won the match and Kodaka was declared guilty. However, Kodaka asked the court for an appeal over the result. It’s been granted so for now Gouma has been temporarily renamed Gouma Ryu (Reserve) until further notice.
Ryuichi Sekine announced he will have his comeback match on the 11th December Korakuen show. He took a break from wrestling back at the end of January 2021 to take care of his mental health.

5. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Isamiashi Zan (20:03).
*V2 for Isami Kodaka.
The Union MAX Title was on the line between two members of Sento Minzoku. The figurehead of the unit Isami Kodaka blocked Daiki Shimomura’s Swanton Bomb with his knees, cutting off the challenger’s best chance at winning the match. Shimomura still kept fighting and gave a final roar before Kodaka put a stop to him with the Isamiashi Zan. The two of them were joined by Minoru Fujita after the match, marking the first time in a while all active members of Sento Minzoku were in the ring together. They wished the fans “Peace & Fuck” to end the show.
Aijin Tag have finally beaten Speed Of Sounds to win the IRON FIST Tag Titles! They came up with a new double team move to do it too. Masato Kamino lifted Tsutomu Oosugi up for a Power Bomb and Takato Nakano flew into him with a Swan Dive Lou Thesz Press. Banana Senga told the new champions he is looking forward to seeing them defend the belts. He also told them not to lose the titles until SOS challenge them for the rematch.
Daichi Kazato approached Aijin Tag after the show asking for a title shot on 24th September. He implied he wanted to fight both of them on his own. They will accept the challenge if Kazato can find a tag partner in time.
The rankings for BASARA’s Jacket matches have gone topsy turvy over today’s result. It was a 3 Way match between Ryota Nakatsu, Fuminori Abe and Gouma. Nakatsu and Abe ended up knocking each other out while fighting over money that Gouma threw at them so Gouma was declared the winner. Gouma moved all the way from 15th to 1st in the rankings because of the win. Nakatsu dropped from 1st down to 2nd and Abe went from 4th to 5th.
The Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament returns in October. The opening show will be held on 11th October and more details will be revealed at a later date.
Cheering, hanging up banners and throwing streamers were all allowed on today’s show.

5. Union MAX Title – GRACE GROUP Presents: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Daiki Shimomura with the V Slider (18:51).
*V5 for Ryota Nakatsu.
It’s now five Union Max Title defences for Ryota Nakatsu, tying the amount from his first reign. He is proud of how passionate Daiki Shimomura fought but told him he should not be satisfied over it. Nakatsu is old and Shimomura are young but they both have a lot of energy so they will continue doing their best for BASARA! No new challenger came out but instead the president of GRACE GROUP asked him for three favours. First, he wants to host a Grace Project show on 5th June built around BASARA taking on a group of wrestlers representing the Grace Family. Nakatsu agreed to it.
The president brought out Kamui and Kenya Maeda. They said the entire Grace Family has already been chosen. They are Kamui, Katsumi Oribe, Kota Umeda, Tomoya Hirata, Daisuke Masaoka and Takashi Sasaki! Nakatsu accepted the challenge and talked with the president over who should be on BASARA’s team. They decided on Nakatsu, Shimomura, Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino, Isami Kodaka and maybe they will offer the last spot to SAGAT. Maeda then introduced himself as Tatsuhito Takaiwa’s number one disciple and kept repeating himself when Kodaka acted like he wasn’t paying attention. They agreed to a singles match against each other at a Grace Project show taking place in two days time. That was the president’s second request. The third and final request was allowing them to sell tickets to the show at the concession area after the show.
Before the 6-Man Tag Match began, Gouma warned the Asian Kung Fu Revolution that someone on their team was going to betray them. Daichi Kazato immediately said it wasn’t him over and over. However Gouma kept getting in the way of his own teammates until he got into a fight with Takumi Tsukamoto, causing a full scale brawl to start and the match to end in a Double DQ. FUMA then revealed Gouma was the traitor all along and he is the newest member of Asian Kung Fu Revolution! The match restarted and this time Gouma kept messing up and hitting his new teammates. They turned on him causing the other team to come to his aid. However this was another trick and Gouma hugged Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi as another sign of betrayal. Gouma then gave Tsukamoto the Jumping Neckbreaker Drop and Hiroshi pinned him with the Tani Otoshi. The two teams continued brawling after the match and all fought their way backstage.
