TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SE-NO, MERRY CHRISTMAS! 2024”, 21/12/2024
Tokyo Tama Mirai Messe
356 Fans

1. Chika Nanase defeated Uta Takami with the Inari Torii Aratame (6:32).
2. Moka Miyamoto defeated Ivy Steele with the Rashomon (5:09).
3. Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Spinebuster (5:42).
4. Raku defeated Shino Suzuki with the Doctor Yellow (4:36).
5. Maki Itoh defeated Toga with the Itoh Deluxe (6:26).
6. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Yuki Aino ended in a Time Limit Draw (7:00).
7. Matcha & Kaya Toribami defeated Pom Harajuku & HIMAWARI when Matcha pinned Harajuku with the Saito Suplex (7:14).
8. Hyper Misao defeated Haru Kazashiro with a Gedo Clutch (5:05).
9. Rika Tatsumi Vs Shoko Nakajima ended in a Time Limit Draw (7:00).
10. Miyu Yamashita Vs Mizuki ended in a Time Limit Draw (7:00).
11. Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai Vs Suzume & Wakana Uehara ended in a Time Limit Draw (10:00).

The holiday season has begun and Tokyo Joshi Pro had an early Christmas show to get everyone ready for next week’s year end party and Korakuen Hall the week after that. The matches here were only the appetizer and purposely had short time limits which resulted in a couple of draws in the latter half of the show. Suzume brought that up after the main event by telling Yuki Arai she knows neither of them were able to give it their all with just a short amount of time. Arai agreed and told Suzume they when they fight for the International Princess Title on 4th January they will leave the ring with no regrets.

Miu Watanabe also talked about the main event going by like a flash because it only lasted ten minutes. She also wanted Arai to call her a princess because that thing is still bothering her. Arai said Watanabe is a princess and that means she is one too. Watanabe was happy with the answer because Arai is not a liar. Suzume thanked Wakana Uehara for teaming with her as a last minute replacement for Arisu Endo. Uehara said the match made her even more excited for 4th January and she’ll do her best on the show no matter what match she gets there.

The TJPW debut of Matcha went off to a good start. She is here to get the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title back from Pom Harajuku and she pinned her in the preview tag match. She said she will use this momentum to get her championship back at Korakuen. Harajuku has started to panic over the result and doesn’t know what to do once the title match on 29th December comes round.

Hyper Misao congratulated Haru Kazashiro on winning the Next Generation Tournament and her upcoming Princess Tag Team Titles shot. However she was taken aback when Kazashiro told her she is going to stop looking up to her! Misao tried to changer her mind by giving her the spray can as a Christmas gift but Kazashiro turned it down because the hero she admires would never do something like that. Misao attacked her in anger to start the match, grabbed the spray and used it. However she missed Kazashiro and blinded the referee instead! Kazashiro hit Misao with the Low Cross Body but the referee was too blind to see the pin. That allowed Misao to turn the tables and pin Kazashiro with a Gedo Clutch in time for the ref’s vision to clear up and count to three.

The Inari Torii Aratame is a lifted version of Chika Nanase’s submission finisher. She used it to beat Uta Takami, who is definitely small enough to be given a move like that.

It was announced that “GO GIRL 5” will be one of two TJPW shows taking place in Kitazawa Town Hall on 1st March. That is the show that takes place in front of a woman-only audience.

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.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW 11TH BIRTHDAY” Results

December 1, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW 11TH BIRTHDAY”, 01/12/2024
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
333 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Kira Summer with the Rashomon (6:11).
2. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Kaya Toribami and Chika Nanase when Tatsumi pinned Nanase with the Twist Of Fate (7:31).
3. Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko defeated Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI when Misao pinned HIMAWARI with the Hypami Returns (9:55).
4. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara when Nakajima submitted Uehara with the Unmanned Local Train Hold (11:01).
5. Mizuki, Suzume, Arisu Endo & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (12:54).
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) defeated Haru Kazashiro & Toga when Itoh submitted Kazashiro with the Itoh Deluxe (19:35).
*V2 for 121000000.

The Next Generation team of Haru Kazashiro & Toga faced up to the seniors they idolize the most for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s 11th Anniversary. They launched an attack where Toga hit Miyu Yamashita with the Elbow Butt while Kazashiro knocked down Maki Itoh with the Low Cross Body. Kazashira then gave Itoh the Fisherman Suplex but Yamashita made it over to break the pin in time. Toga took care of Yamashita with the Rock Bottom but Kazashiro couldn’t pull off a second Fisherman Suplex. Instead Itoh blocked her offence, knocked her down with the Stunner and made her submit to the Itoh Deluxe.

Itoh reminded Kazashiro about her making the title challenge last week. She said she knew back then than Kazashiro would show her something interesting in today’s match. But this can’t be the end, right? Kazashiro can still do more. She and Toga are welcome to challenge 121000000 again. This time Itoh dares them to try and break her middle finger! Yamashita also told Toga not to be satisfied until she can beat her. Everyone in the ring should all get stronger so they can have better matches against each other. 121000000 are now looking forward to the 4th January Korakuen Hall show. They are ready to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against any team from around the world.

When Match #5 was over Mizuki called Miu Watanabe to get back into the ring. Mizuki talked to her about how much everyone in TJPW has grown since she last held the Princess Of Princess Title. She couldn’t help but feel disappointed seeing Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima and Rika Tatsumi all lose to Watanabe in title matches this year but it is also cool to see how bright Watanabe is shining as the champion. Watanabe is now the unbeatable monster and Mizuki thinks she is the only one left who can challenge her. Watanabe corrected Mizuki and said she is a princess, not a monster. They will fight for the title on 4th January to see who the true princess is!

Mizuki also threw in her support for Suzume as she gets ready for her International Princess Title match on 4th Janaury. She told her they will do their best to win the two championships together. Meanwhile Watanabe still took exception to being called a monster. She told reporters backstage that a princess is someone who beats monsters just like in a certain anime. Do no call her a monster under any circumstances! Watanabe beats monsters so that means she is a princess!

Rika Tatsumi told her opponents she is the God of 3 Way Matches. She ordered Kaya Toribami and Chika Nanase to fight each other and she would take on the winner. She then sat on the corner turnbuckle and yelled instructions at them until they caught her trying to pin one behind the other’s back. The 3 Way went on as normal and she ended up winning anyway.

At the start of the show TJPW introduced British wrestler Ivy Steele to the audience. Steele is a university student from Manchester, England who is currently studying in Japan as part of a foreign exchange. She already has experience wrestling in Britain under the name Fifi and it’s been her dream to wrestle in Japan. She is currently training in the TJPW dojo and will have her first match with the promotion on 14th December in Yokohama.

The sixth annual Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao Ittenyon match was announced for 4th January.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW 11TH BIRTHDAY”, 01/12/2024
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX

1. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Kaya Toribami Vs Chika Nanase
2. Moka Miyamoto Vs Kira Summer
3. Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko Vs Mahiro Kiryu & HIMAWARI
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino
5. Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs Mizuki, Suzume, Arisu Endo & Yoshiko Hasegawa
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Haru Kazashiro & Toga

This is the second time in a row the two finalists of the Next Generation Tournament are teaming up for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. This time it’s the tournament prize for the winner. Haru Kazashiro beat Toga in the final to earn a title shot of her choice. She picked the Tag Titles because Maki Itoh is who she looks up to most and she’s aiming to take the title from her. She then asked Toga to be her partner for the match. Funnily enough, Toga was going to make the same choice for a similar reason because she wants to fight Miyu Yamashita for a championship. So it all conveniently works out for everyone!

Pom Harajuku is not on the show because she will be wrestling in Thailand that weekend.

BASARA “BASARA 264 ~KOO~”, 13/12/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken Vs Ayato Yoshida & Kazumasa Yoshida

2. Special Single Match: Tomohiro Ishii Vs Yuki Iino

Apparently Ueno has been wanting a singles match with Super Sasadango Machine for a while.

GANBARE☆PRO “SOME DAY THE SUN WILL SHINE 2024”, 27/12/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Kitsune World Title: Yuna Manase (c) Vs MICHIKO
2. Special Single Match: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Dick Togo
3. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Yumehito Imanari

An impromptu No. 1 Contenders match on the last Ganbare☆Pro show is what leads to Yumehito Imanari getting his chance to fight Keisuke Ishii for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. He beat Shuichiro Katsumura to do it. But while Katsumura is out of the title picture for now he is still getting an important match at the end of the year. Ishii encouraged him to go challenge Dick Togo to a match! Katsumura’s link to Togo is a very minor one but it is a story he told Ishii over drinks one night. Back when Katsumura was in high school he visited the Universal Lucha Libre dojo wanting to join it. He didn’t have the courage to go through with the plan but he remembers seeing a trainee walk past him into the building. That trainee was Togo! So this match 30 years in the making must be fate for Katsumura.

Over the weekend at a GLEAT show, MICHIKO pinned Yuna Manase in a 6-Man Tag Match and challenged her afterwards for the Kitsune World Title. Manase accepted the challenge and convinced Kitsune to let the title match take place in GanPro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’25”, 04/01/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Suzume

The complete card with consist of around 9 or 10 matches.

“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

In an odd move Sanshiro Takagi is deciding not to use DDT for his 30th Anniversary show next year. Instead he wants to rely solely on his decades worth of connections across the Japanese scene to come up with a wrestling show filled with matches you won’t believe. Matches like Dump Matsumoto & Toru Owashi Vs The Brahman Brothers. Nobody under a full contract with DDT will be booked for the show. Takagi himself is unlikely to wrestle either unless he unexpectedly gets medically cleared in time.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

November 22, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE
429 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami defeated Wakana Uehara, Kira Shummer & Chika Nanase when HIMAWARI submitted Nanase with the Half Crab Hold (8:56).
2. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko and Mahiro Kiryu when Harajuku pinned Neko and Kiryu with a Double Body Press (5:42).
3. Zara Zakher & Yuki Aino defeated Mizuki & Kaya Toribami when Zakher pinned Toribami with the Control Z (9:34).
4. Miu Watanabe, Raku, Suzume & Moka Miyamoto defeated Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Suzume pinned Hasegawa with the Ring A Bell (11:10).
5. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Tatsumi submitted Misao with the White Dragon Sleeper (15:34).
6. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: Haru Kazashiro defeated Toga with the Fisherman Suplex (8:49).
7. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) defeated Shazza McKenzie with the Finally (11:01).
*V6 for Yuki Arai.

That’s successful defence number six for Yuki Arai. The closest Shazza McKenzie could get to beating her was with a Fisherman Suplex that Arai kicked out of. Arai took control from there and used the Full Nelson Buster to set up the match winning Finally. Arai used broken English to tell McKenzie she would like another match with her. But for now she needs a new challenger to continue her record breaking International Princess Title reign. Suzume answered the call and said she wants a match with the dazzling champion. Arai got excited because she hasn’t defended the belt against Suzume yet so she suggested they can have the match at Korakuen Hall on 4th January. That means it will happen exactly one year after she became champion in the same venue! Suzume later explained that pro wrestling is a universal language. For example she doesn’t speak English at all but was still able to wrestle in Seattle recently. If Tokyo Joshi Pro can reach out across the world then she wants to do that as the IP Champion.

The youngest entrant in this year’s New Generation Tournament has won the whole thing! Haru Kazashiro pulled off the upset in the final by defeating Toga. She had Toga scouted by using an Armbar to counter the Rock Bottom. Toga hit back with the Rolling Thunder but Kazashiro was determined not to lose. Both tried to use their finishers to no avail but Kazashiro broke the deadlock by hitting a Low Cross Body. From there she was able to pin Toga with the Fisherman Suplex and win the tournament!

After receiving her winner’s medal, Kazashiro was ready to pick her title shot of choice for being the tournament champion. She always admired Maki Itoh and wants nothing more than to challenge her for a belt so she asked Toga if they can team up to fight 121000000 for the Princess Tag Team Titles! Toga accepted the offer and shook her hand. 121000000 then entered the ring to endorse the challenge. Itoh warned Kazashiro not to fight her as a fan but to beat her as a rival. Hazashiro promised she will crush her! Toga then revealed if she had won the tournament she would have wanted to go after Miyu Yamashita’s championship so she is getting what she wants anyway. Yamashita said she likes the look in Toga’s eyes and decided they should have the title match on 1st December.

For the first time in seven months Hyper Misao was here to protect TJPW for all of the big children who follow it. Before her comeback match began she told the fans how difficult it was to return. She not only had a broken ankle but also a broken heart from having to stay away from the ring for so long. But she kept an eye on TJPW from a distance and what she saw made her want to come back no matter what. She was really happy to be in the ring with Shoko Nakajima and Rika Tatsumi again (and Arisu Endo is there too) so she thought the best way to begin with a fresh start was to shake her opponents’ hands fair and square. Of course that turned out to be a trick so Kyoraku Kyomei could get the jump on Tatsumi & Endo. However Tatsumi was able to get Misao in the White Dragon Sleeper at the end to make her give up. Misao is not going to be pessimistic about her comeback ending in a loss though. She is looking forward to fighting and winning again. Nakajima didn’t mind losing either because whenever Ultraman Leo is defeated, he trains like crazy to get stronger and returns to beat the enemy! She wants to win the Tag Titles so the team will improve to become Super Hyper Kyoraku Kyomei! Meanwhile Tatsumi & Endo are wondering when Misao will produce another “HYPE!” show?

Pom Harajuku had special celebratory sashes made for herself and Haruna Neko to celebrate the 6th anniversary of their wrestling debuts. She also took advantage of Mahiro Kiryu giving Neko the Spinebuster by hooking both of their legs and pinning them for a double three count victory.

TJPW’s three annual big arena shows will all take place at the renovated Ota Ward Gymnasium in 2025. “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” will be on 16th March, “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” will be on 21st July and “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” will be on 20th September.

HiSPC 6th Anniversary, BASARA 1 Day Tournament, Akiyama Vs Naya

November 18, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Haruna Neko Vs Pom Harajuku Vs Mahiro Kiryu
2. Wakana Uehara, Kira Shummer & Chika Nanase Vs HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami
3. Mizuki & Kaya Toribami Vs Zara Zakher & Yuki Aino
4. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Miu Watanabe, Raku, Suzume & Moka Miyamoto
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: Toga Vs Haru Kazashiro
6. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
7. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shazza McKenzie

The winner of the Next Generation Tournament will get a title match of their choice as the prize. Miu Watanabe is currently waiting to see who will emerge as her 4th January Princess Of Princess Title opponent. 121000000 are also currently without any contenders for the Princess Tag Team Titles in Japan. The timing of the final taking place beneath an International Princess Title main event is notable too. It could be a big day for Toga or Haru Kazashiro to win the tournament final and then reappear at the end of the show to call out one of the champions.

The other six wrestlers who competed in the tournament will be taking part in a 6-Woman Tag Match.

Both Haruna Neko and Pom Harajuku debuted in November 2018 so they are celebrating their anniversaries together in the same match. Mahiro Kiryu is from the same class as them (HiSPC) but didn’t debut until February 2019. The other two members from that class were YUMI (retired) and Himawari Unagi (now known as Sayaka Unagi).

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024”, 23/11/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Demus & Ilusion Vs To-y & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura Vs HARASHIMA, Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. Akito 15th Anniversary Debut Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Akito
4. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Kazuki Hirata 37th Birthday Special 1 Vs 7 Handicap Match: Kazuki Hirata (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Soma Takao, Yuki Iino, Diego & Yuki Ishida
5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul (c) Vs Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Takeshi Masada
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku
7. DDT Extreme Title – You’re Still A Cinderella As You Climb The Ladder To Adulthood Rules: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Yuni

The DDT Extreme Title match will periodically go into “Cinderella Time” where Danshoku Dieno will be instantly disqualified if he does any of his Danshoku moves on Yuni. When “Cinderella Time” is inactive, Dieno is allowed to wrestle like he normally does. The match must have a winner and cannot be called off as a No Contest.

The next SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A battle will now have the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles on the line.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title is no longer part of the Dieno Vs Yuni match because Kazuki Hirata is now the latest champion. That means he will likely defend it in the 7-on-1 Handicap Match.

BASARA “BASARA 263 ~HIEN~”, 29/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1A: Takato Nakano Vs Takumi Tsukamoto
2. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 1B: Isami Kodaka Vs Masato Kamino
3. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: Ryota Nakatsu Vs Winner Of Match 1A
4. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Round 2: FUMA Vs Winner Of Match 1B
5. Ryuichi Sekine, Takeru Inoue & Fuminori Abe Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ikuto Hidaka & Itsuki Aoki
6. Next Challenger For The Union MAX Title 1-Day Tournament – Final: X Vs X

It looks like BASARA could not find room on the schedule this year to run their annual Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament. So we have to do with a one day tournament to crown the No. 1 Contender for the Union MAX Title instead after a bunch of the roster all argued that they should get the next shot.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”, 28/12/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. O-MENZ Kumadori Debut Match: Kumadori Vs X
2. Haruto Sakuraba Debut Match: Haruto Sakuraba Vs X
3. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya
4. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

A mighty challenge awaits Yukio Naya in the heavyweight division. He thinks he is ready to fight Jun Akiyama one on one again! Their only previous singles match together was back in 2020 on a Bakuha Koshien show, which Akiyama won. Akiyama thinks Sumo Hall is the best place to host the rematch.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2024” Results

November 16, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2024”, 16/11/2024
Osaka Edion Arena #2
384 Fans

1. Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Chika Nanase with the Muffler Hold (6:46).
2. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima defeated Haruna Neko and Kaya Toribami when Nakajima pinned Neko with the Northern Lights Suplex (6:33).
3. Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Itoh submitted Harajuku with the Itoh Deluxe (10:16).
4. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Toga defeated Kira Summer with the Rock Bottom (7:24).
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Haru Kazashiro defeated Wakana Uehara with the Fisherman Suplex (8:58).
6. Shazza McKenzie & Moka Miyamoto defeated Rika Tatsumi & HIMAWARI when McKenzie pinned HIMAWARI with the Shaztastic Stunner (10:02).
7. Yuki Arai, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Mizuki, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami when Arai submitted Suzuki with the Sasori Katame (13:51).
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Zara Zakher with the Tear Drop (15:38).
*V5 for Miu Watanabe.

After losing to Zara Zakher twice this year, Miu Watanabe finally got to get a win back and under important circumstances. With this fifth successful Princess Of Princess Title defence, Watanabe now has the second most defences in a single reign behind Miyu Yamashita’s 10 win streak from 2018/2019. Zakher relied on the same game plan she used to beat Watanabe previously, using a backflip to avoid the champ’s attack and countering with the RKO. However this time Watanabe was able to block the Control Z, use a Double Hammer strike to fend off Zakher’s Lariats and countered a Jumping Knee Strike with a Power Slam. With Zakher’s offence nullified, Watanabe used the Laser Beam followed by the Tear Drop to win the match.

Watanabe told the fans how happy she was to defend the title in Osaka. She called Zakher a scary opponent for beating her twice before but it was also really fun to wrestle somebody as talented as her. Backstage she said she wants to get closer to Yamashita’s record for most title defences. She was asked by the interviewer if she has any thoughts about the 4th January Korakuen Hall show. Watanabe hasn’t thought about it yet because she was so focused on today. She is aware that anyone could come out to challenge her for the title on that show. Whoever it will be, she won’t turn them down. Zakher thought the atmosphere wrestling in Osaka was great and different from Tokyo. She promised to get more experience and come back to Tokyo Joshi Pro with the goal of winning one of the championships. Any of them will make her happy because she wants to win gold.

We’re not getting a two-time winner for the Next Generation Tournament because Wakana Uehara is out after the semi-finals! Haru Kazashiro scored the upset of the tournament by fighting out of the Banana Pillow submission and using the Fisherman Suplex to pin Uehara. Kazashiro admits she was worried because Uehara is the strongest of the 23 year old wrestlers in TJPW and Kazashiro is not very good at believing in herself. When she did win the match her head was feeling all over the place and took a moment before she realised the crowd were cheering for her victory. Uehara is upset she couldn’t make it to the final on 22nd November especially since she knows some of her fans already bought tickets to the show expecting to see her in that match.

Toga will be meeting Kazashiro in the final after she defeated Kira Summer. The combination of the Rolling Thunder and Rock Bottom gave Toga the victory. She feels vindicated because last year she was eliminated in the semi-finals in the same venue. She thought she would face Uehara in the final so it would be her chance to avenge last year’s defeat. However she didn’t expect to see Kazashiro beat Wakana. Toga is still motivated none the less. Shinjuku FACE is where her debut match was so she is excited to have the final be held there. Summer feel frustrated because everything she has done up to now was for this tournament but the difference in experience between her and her seniors is still wide. She knows she will get there eventually, she just doesn’t have the experience yet.

The Up Up Girls performed their brand new song “SEED” at the start of the show.

Charismania, Sasaki Is Sick Of Love And Dreams, Dance Terrorist To Debut

November 5, 2024

DDT “CHARISMANIA”, 06/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. KUBITO & Naohiro Katsumi 19th Anniversary Match: KUBITO Vs Naohiro Katsumi
2. Ram Kaichow, Endo Kaichow & Kodara Kaichow (w/ X) Vs Brahman Shu, Brahman Masa & Brahman Keigo (w/ Brahman Kei)
3. Demus, Ilusion & Anarko Montaña Vs Kaito Ishida, Shunma Katsumata & Diego

6. The Greatest Wrestling Match Of CHARISMANIA: Daisuke Sasaki & Yuko Miyamoto Vs Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita

Tomorrow’s “CHARISMANIA” show has some added juice to it now that Daisuke Sasaki will be headlining a Sumo Hall show at the end of the year. Time for him to sharpen up his skills with Yuko Miyamoto, Dick Togo and Minoru Fujita.

Brahman Kei made his first public appearance in Michinoku Pro over the weekend after getting surgery to remove a tumor. He won’t be able to wrestle for a while yet but is capable of being at ringside for Brahman Shu’s matches again. In order to keep the two teams even, Ram Kaichow has gone looking for someone extra to look out for her team against the Brahmans.

BASARA “BASARA 261 ~SOUEN~”, 08/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

4. SAGAT & Antonio Honda Vs Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi
5. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida

Does BASARA have a jacket big enough for Daisuke Sekimoto to wrestle in without his muscles ripping it apart at the seams?

1. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima Vs Haruna Neko Vs Kaya Toribami

Miyu Yamashita won’t be on the show because she will be wrestling in America for GCW that weekend.

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 16/11/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi
2. Yuki Ueno, To-y & Diego Vs HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yuki Ishida
3. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura

6. SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A!: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada Vs Daisuke Sasaki, KANON, Demus & Ilusion

The feud between SCHADENFREUDE International Vs DAMNATION T.A is just getting started! Some of the undercard matches have been changed to adapt with the current turn of events.

Two singles matches building up the next KO-D Tag Team Titles match are happening here. Shunma Katsumata can take a big scalp if he can beat Tetsuya Endo by himself. Yuya Koroku has a recent pinfall win over Katsumata but can he get the same result against MAO?

GANBARE☆PRO “WHERE EAGLES DARE 2024”, 17/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Tyson Maeguchi Vs Shota Kawakami
2. Yuna Manase & Nanami Vs YuuRI & Soy
3. PSYCHO & Moeka Haruhi Vs Black Menso-re & HARUKAZE
4. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Yuya Susumu
5. Kouki Iwasaki 10th Anniversary Match: Kouki Iwasaki, Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii Vs Tatsuhito Takaiwa, Yumehito Imanari & Rekka
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Shuji Ishikawa

The main event was originally meant to happen in August but the show was cancelled over typhoon concerns. It took a while to reschedule it but Ken Ohka got a date where Shuji Ishikawa is available to be on the show so they can challenge Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles.

HARUKAZE still has not won a match since Ganbare☆Pro went independent. She hopes teaming up with Black Menso-re is what she needs to finally grab a win for herself. Moeka Haruhi has PSYCHO as her partner to try and continue HARUKAZE’s losing streak.

Ishikawa coming over means he will be bringing someone else from Evolution with him to represent the promotion. Soy is still in her rookie year as a wrestler. Her outsider opponent on the other team is Nanami from Diana.

DDT “MAO TRIUMPHANT RETURN! DRAMATIC DREAM TAISEIKAN ~THE VILLAGE IS WHERE THE SCHOOL IS~ 2024”, 17/11/2024
Miyagi Osaki City Matsuyama B&G Marine Center

1. Makoto Oishi Vs Kazuma Sumi
2. Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata Vs Toru Owashi & Antonio Honda
3. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & Ilusion Vs Akito, Takeshi Masada & Yuni
4. Jun Akiyama & HARASHIMA Vs Keigo Nakamura & Yuki Ishida
5. Special Tag Match: MJ Paul & Demus Vs Yukio Naya & Diego
6. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku
7. Special Tag Match: MAO & Yuki Ueno Vs Minoru Suzuki & Chris Brookes

More DDT appearances for Demus and Diego.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2024”, 22/12/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Tomohiro Ishii Vs Yuki Iino

DDT wants to end 2024 on some high notes by running a Korakuen Hall show and a Sumo Hall show in the last few weeks of December. For Korakuen Yuki Iino is getting a singles match against Tomohiro Ishii! What will it be like when a Stone Pitbull is BURNING?

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”, 28/12/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. O-MENZ Kumadori Debut Match: Kumadori Vs X
2. Haruto Sakuraba Debut Match: Haruto Sakuraba Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

I have to say I didn’t expect to see Chris Brookes win the KO-D Openweight Title from Shinya Aoki. Even more so I didn’t expect the next Sumo Hall main event to be Brookes Vs Sasaki for the belt. Sasaki is sick of hearing people like Brookes in DDT talk about love and dreams. He is more motivated to make the lives of those people a living hell than he is to become the champion again.

More personalities from the entertainment world are coming to make their pro wrestling debuts in DDT. This time it is a masked man named Kumadori from the “Dance Terrorist Group” O-MENZ. According to Kumadori he is one of the most muscular members of the group and he wants to unleash his breakdancing wrestler skills in the ring. This deal came together when Kumadori met Sanshrio Takagi through a mutual acquaintance. He told Takagi directly that he wanted to give wrestling a try. I looked up some O-MENZ videos online and I think the closest comparison I can think of is they’re like a Japanese version of Jabbawockeez.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MAHIRO KIRYU TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~TOKYO JOSHI SHINOYABO~” Results

November 3, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MAHIRO KIRYU TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~TOKYO JOSHI SHINOYABO~”, 03/11/2024
Gunma G-Messe Main Hall C (Takasaki City)
262 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Uta Takami with the Muffler Hold (7:14).
2. Kaya Toribami & Toga defeated Suzume & Haruna Neko when Toribami pinned Neko with the Sento Choryu (8:47).
3. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Pom Harajuku and Arisu Endo when Tatsumi pinned Harajuku with the Sliding Hip (8:04).
4. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Wakana Uehara defeated Chika Nanase with the Banana Pillow (8:23).
5. Maki Itoh & Kira Summer defeated Shoko Nakajima & HIMAWARI when Itoh submitted HIMAWARI with the Itoh Deluxe (11:07).
6. Mizuki, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Miu Watanabe, Raku & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (12:09).
7. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto when Kiryu pinned Miyamoto with the Spinebuster (12:40).

Even in her hometown Mahiro Kiryu cannot help but take responsibility for everything that happens around her. She aplogised early in the match for her part in promoting the show to make Gunma a more appealing place to visit. Yuki Kamifuku then instructed her to bow to all four sides of the room. Kamifuku was also there to even the odds when Kiryu had to fight Miyu Yamashita. Kamifuku poked Yamashita in the eyes and took her out with the Famouser. It was all up to Kiryu from that point on and she was able to beat Moka Miyamoto with the Spinebuster.

Kiryu was happy to see so many people from Gunma come to see the show today because it is her first time wrestling here. When she first started her wrestling career she made so many people worry for her and today she got to prove to them she is doing well. Kamifuku praised her for working so hard and also thinking of ways to repay her hometown. The Toyo Mates then decided to apologize in the ring together to end the show. Kiryu is very sorry about today and she loves Gunma! Backstage Kamifuku said when she saw Kiryu from a distance today she looked like Shohei Ohtani. She likes to think Kiryu is a two-way player too by being a kind person as well as a pro wrestler, so she might start calling her “Shohei From Gunma” from now on.

Things are currently on track for Wakana Uehara to become a repeat winner of the Next Generation Tournament. She had to fight off Chika Nanase from using the Inari Torii to spin her into the Banana Pillow for the win. She’ll be facing Haru Kazashiro in the semi-finals and does not know what to expect in their first singles match against each other. One thing’s for sure is she thinks she definitely won’t lose. Nanase was disappointed because she thought she gave it her all but it wasn’t good enough. She’ll have to start from scratch so when she does her best the next time, she will win.
