May 26, 2022

GANBARE☆PRO “CRAZY THUNDER ROAD 2022”, 26/05/2022
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
114 Fans

1. Tiger Vs Dragon Part 2: Keisuke Ishii defeated Ryuya Matsufusa with the Double Arm Neck Hold (9:20).
2. PocchaJo Vs GanJo Full-Scale Battle: Yuna Manase, Maika Ozaki & Yappy defeated Moeka Haruhi, HARUKAZE & YuuRI when Manase pinned YuuRI with the Suzuki Dynamic (12:17).
3. Mr. SHOWTIME Vs Shivering Arm Locker: Tsuyoshi Okada defeated Shota with the V1 Arm Lock (10:08).
4. Highball & Punch Drunker Vs REAL BLOOD: Naoya Nomura & Mizuki Watase defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa & Tyson Maeguchi when Nomura pinned Maeguchi with the Maximum (13:40).
5. Road To SEKIGAHARA Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yumehito Imanari, Soma Takao & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Shigehiro Irie when Imanari pinned Ohka with the Lariat (21:44).

At the beginning of the show Yumehito Imanari said he wants his Spirit Of Ganbare Title reign to be a story that can only be told in Ganbare☆Pro. He dealt a mighty blow against his next challenger Ken Ohka by beating him directly in the main event. He said afterwards he doesn’t think Ohka can beat him as their story will reach its climax at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 10th July. A beaten Ohka promised he will be at his best on that date.

Ohka’s evening wasn’t over yet. The post-show speeches from the roster was suddenly interrupted by Eruption when they drove into the arena! Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai & Hideki Okatani entered the ring and Okatani suddenly attacked Ohka until Mizuki Watase stopped him. Sakaguchi brought up the last time Eruption fought Ganpro two years ago and feels the time has come for them to battle each other again at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” on 12th June! Eruption then stuffed Ohka into their car and abducted him. The car returned ten minutes later and Ohka was thrown out with his body all rolled up in tape. Ohka complained that Ganpro wants to make pro wrestling a major sport and what Eruption did to him is just violence. He promised Ganpro Vs Eruption will be the hottest match at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL” no matter where on the card they are on.

Shuichiro Katsumura admits he hasn’t been a major focus of Ganpro ever since he lost the Independent Jr. Heavyweight Title. However he still has a desire to support the roster as one of its oldest members. He wants to fight somebody he admires and is asking Ganpro to find him a big opponent from pro wrestling or martial arts for 10th July.

Another surprise appearance happened today when Sayaka Unagi from Stardom entered the ring to call out Yuna Manase! Unagi, who was previously known as Himawari Unagi in Tokyo Joshi Pro, has had one previous singles match against Manase which she lost. She thinks it is a black mark that needs to be rectified. YuuRI did not who Unagi was and Sayaka took offence. She challenged YuuRI to a match at Stardom’s next “NEW BLOOD” show. Unagi then told Manase that you cannot do pro wrestling by just doing your best. They almost came to blows until Manase was held back and the two agreed to have a singles match sometime in the future. The Ota Ward show is the most likely destination.


Himawari Unagi Leaves Tokyo Joshi

September 30, 2020

For the third time this month a Tokyo Joshi Pro contract expires. This time it is Himawari Unagi ending her association with the promotion. Unagi wants to take on new challenges in a new environment so after discussions with TJPW her contract will not be renewed. The contract just so happens to expire today so she is now officially gone from TJPW. Unagi apologised to fans for the sudden announcement and thanked them for their support. She will not forget what she learned in TJPW and will move forward in her own way.

———————————————————————–

So yeah this is concerning. That is now three women who have left TJPW this month by letting their contracts expire. Natsumi Maki, Mina Shirakawa and now Himawari Unagi are all free agents as of today. There’s also Yuna Manase transferring to Ganbare☆Pro over the summer if you want to count that. Makes me wonder if other TJPW contracts had the same expiration date of 30th September and those women got to renew their deals.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LIVE WITH YOUR TIME” Results

September 21, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LIVE WITH YOUR TIME”, 21/09/2020
Tokyo Shinagawa The Grand Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Pom Harajuku defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Pom Do Justice (5:16).
2. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao defeated Raku and Himawari Unagi when Misao pinned Raku with La Magistral Cradle (6:13).
3. Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Fame Asser (11:49).
4. Miyu Yamashita defeated Sena Shiori with the Attitude Adjustment (6:05).
5. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & Shoko Nakajima Vs Mizuki & Maki Itoh ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
6. Natsumi Maki defeated Hikari Noa with a German Suplex (9:42).
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Mirai Maiumi & Suzume when Tatsumi pinned Suzume with the Missile Hip (18:20)
*V4 for Daydream.

The challengers went into the Princess Tag Team Titles match with a new name. Mirai Maiumi & Suzume are now BeeStar. Now they just need to get some more experience teaming together because Daydream had them figured out. Miu Watanabe showed her strength by Double Body Slamming BeeStar then later getting rid of Maiumi with the Tear Drop. Suzume fought back against Rika Tatsumi but she was put away with the Twist Of Fate followed by the Missile Hip.

Tatsumi said the challengers were tougher than she imagined but Daydream was able to score their 4th title defence. She wants to do more defences so she called out any of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster to be passionate enough to take the chance, no matter their ability or experience level. Mahiro Kiryu came out and said she felt disappointed to see two juniors working harder than her. So she wants to challenge for the titles with Yuki Kamifuku as her partner! However, The Bakuretsu Sisters then came out also wanting the title shot. Nodoka Tenma referred to Kamifuku & Kiryu as The Sorcerer Hunters. Then Yuki Aino explained how she and Tenma already challenged for the belts back in January. They failed to win but they have become stronger since then. Tatsumi suggested the two teams to fight each other and the winners can get the title match.

There is still a little bit of time left on their contracts but today Tokyo Joshi says goodbye to Natsumi Maki and Mina Shirakawa. For Maki her final TJPW match was against her Pandemic Boo-Boo partner Hikari Noa. Maki wanted to make the match special which is why she won with the German Suplex instead of the Backlash. Although Noa lost, she was happy for them to fight together until the very end. Noa said she will take advantage of the bad qualities that Maki thought her to shake up TJPW.

No winner could be determined between The Miraclians and the Itoh Respect Army. The Magical Girl Splash was blocked by Maki Itoh but Shoko Nakajima took her out with the Rider Kick. In the final minutes Yuka Sakazaki and Mizuki went back and forth with Mizuki even hitting her new Rolling Body Attack. Sakazaki countered a Facelock into a Cradle for a nearfall in the final seconds and the time ran out afterwards.

Shirakawa’s final match with TJPW was on the winning team in a trios bout. Kamifuku promised to continue doing her best in Tokyo Joshi for Shirakawa. If she ever has a painful or lonely night, Kamifuku is always there for her on LINE. Shirakawa said she was worried if she would ever be accepted in TJPW because she wasn’t raised in the company. But she got along kindly with everyone and felt like part of the group. She will grow as a wrestler even more by using what she learned in TJPW over the last two years.

Hyper Misao had two announcements to make. The first was that Misao, Raku and Himawari Unagi are the Hyper Good Night Wasshoi Festival. They have been working together since August and have now come up with the name. The second announcement was the Hyper Good Night Wasshoi Festival is splitting up after today’s match. Unagi asked for one last celebration in the ring to make up for all the summer festivals getting cancelled. The three danced to “Summer Festival” by Whiteberry until it broke into a proper wrestling match.

At the beginning of the show, Marika Kobashi showed up to announce she will return to wrestling on 3rd October. She took a break from TJPW a year and a half ago to study for her university entrance exams. She was supposed to return during the Spring but it was held off because of the Coronavirus. Now she is able to come back and this time she is wrestling as a college student!

The annual 4th January show in Korakuen Hall is confirmed to be happening again in 2021.

The Up Up Girls have a new song called “Three Years In The Ring ~All Along The Way~”.

Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Moka Miyamoto with a Sliding Lariat (7:51).
2. Three Loss Point System Irregular Win 3 Way Match ~ Autumn Big Athletic Meet: Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita and Pom Harajuku (6:19).
2a. Miyu Yamashita eliminated Pom Harajuku by Point Loss TKO (5:55).
2b. Hyper Misao eliminated Miyu Yamashita by Point Loss TKO (6:19).
3. Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Maki Itoh & Himawari Unagi when Kamifuku defeated Unagi with the Fame Asser (11:32).
4. Mirai Maiumi, Suzume & Sena Shiori defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Haruna Neko when Suzume pinned Neko with the RKO (12:29).
5. Natsumi Maki & Hikari Noa defeated Shoko Nakajima & Mahiro Kiryu when Maki pinned Noa with the Backlash (10:29).
6. Mizuki & Mina Shirakawa defeated Yuki Aino & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Cutie Special (13:46).

Mizuki was happy to team with Mina Shirakawa before Shirakawa leaves Tokyo Joshi Pro at the end of the month. Shirakawa responded that she personally loves and respects Mizuki. When they were interviewed backstage, Shirakawa talked about the entire roster sharing their memories of her after the news of her contracting ending came out. Mizuki said she didn’t say anything. Shirakawa corrected her by bringing up a private LINE conversation they had but Mizuki stopped her from providing any more info. For Shirakawa’s last match in TJPW she wants to do something like a Gauntlet match against the entire roster. She reconsidered when she was told that is usually done for retirement matches.

It’s not goodbye yet but Pandemic Boo-Boo teamed up for what could be the last time.

An RKO from Suzume to Haruna Neko created an upset result in Match #4. The match could have ended the other way when Miu Watanabe put Suzume in the Canadian Backbreaker. Sena Shiori made the save with a Dropkick. When Rika Tatsumi got rid of her, Suzume ran rings around Daydream distracting them long enough for Maiumi Mirai to wipe them out with a Double Lariat. After the match Suzume called for Tatsumi’s attention. She joined TJPW because of how much she admires the wrestlers and now she is one too. Suzume wants to herself and Maiumi to shine as bright as Tatsumi so they are challenging Daydream for the Princess Tag Team Titles! The match is accepted and will take place on 21st September. Watanabe seeing two young wrestlers challenging the champions reminds her of when she and Hikari Noa did the same against the Magical Sugar Rabbits two years ago.

Himawari Unagi kept shouting “Wasshoi!” during her match. Trying to get the last of that festival feeling before the summer ends I guess.

Hyper Misao’s latest idea for a match was to give each wrestler 3 points. They lost a point being pinned for 2 seconds, giving up to a submission or getting thrown over the top rope to the outside. Last wrestler with points remaining wins. Misao and Pom Harajuku worked together to take points from Miyu Yamashita. The match came down to everyone with a point each. Yamashita pinned Harajuku with the Attitude Adjustment to eliminate her. But Harajuku rolled into Yamashita’s legs afterwards and helped Misao pin her with La Magistral Cradle to give Misao the victory.

The matches were kept secret until they happened so everyone was surprised to see Yuka Sakazaki in the opener. Moka Miyamoto had her first match back after being absent with illness for a month.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 08/08/2020
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall
??? Fans

1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Suzume defeated Haruna Neko with the Diving Body Attack (6:06).
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Maki Itoh defeated Himawari Unagi with the Itoh Deluxe (5:45).
3. 2 Vs 3 Handicap Match: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Mirai Maiumi, Sena Shiori & Moka Miyamoto when Misao submitted Shiori with a Body Squeeze Chickenwing Facelock (10:38).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Natsumi Maki defeated Mina Shirakawa with the Backlash (7:43).
5. Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Yuki Kamifuku & Makoto Shiryu defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Diving Foot Stomp (11:37).
6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Miyu Yamashita defeated Raku with the Attitude Adjustment (8:19).
7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Yuka Sakazaki defeated Nodoka Tenma with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (14:18).

In just over two weeks Yuka Sakazaki has beaten both of The Bakuretsu Sisters in singles matches with her new Magical Girl 450 Splash. Sakazaki said the fans may have expected a 1st Round upset today but it didn’t happen here against Nodoka Tenma. Sakazaki has never won the Tokyo Princess Cup and she is extra motivated to end that streak as the reigning Princess Of Princess Champion. She faces Hyper Misao in the next round but doesn’t know which Misao to expect.

The Princess Cup has been Miyu Yamashita’s achilles heel for the entire existence of Tokyo Joshi Pro. This year she got off on the right foot avoiding the potential upset of all upsets against Raku. Yamashita has another Up Up Girl facing her in Round 2, Hikari Noa.

Natsumi Maki showed up wearing the wrestling costume Kairi Sane gifted to her before she left for WWE. The timing of that, eh? She swears she only wore it because she wanted something pink to match with Mina Shirakawa in the ring. Maki faces Pom Harajuku in the next round.

Today wasn’t a big deal for Maki Itoh. If you ask her she simply beat Himawari Unagi because she wanted it more. This year is different for Itoh. She wanted to win back the International Princess Title and make it the most important championship in TJPW. That can’t happen because it is stuck in America with Thunder Rosa. So Itoh will chase after Sakazaki and the Princess Title instead. Yuki Kamifuku is Itoh’s 2nd Round opponent.

The closest thing to an upset today was Suzume beating Haruna Neko in the opener. Maybe it is an upset but eh, I don’t see it that way. She didn’t even think she would be in the tournament this year. Suzume faces Mizuki in the next round. Now that would be an upset if Suzume wins.

1. Shoko Nakajima defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Northern Lights Suplex (6:16).
2. Miyu Yamashita & Nodoka Tenma defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Himawari Unagi when Yamashita submitted Kiryu with the Modified Cobra Clutch (7:24).
3. Quiz Shiorinaire: Hyper Misao defeated Sena Shiori with the USI (10:58).

6. Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Suzume when Noa pinned Suzume with the Uranage (13:43).

The day has finally come. The Up Up Girls closed out a Tokyo Joshi Pro show as the main event winners! The win was over a team that had The Magical Sugar Rabbits in it too. Hikari Noa said today’s win gives her, Miu Watanabe and Raku confidence going into the Tokyo Princess Cup. They will go crazy in the tournament this year!

Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi named their team Minato Mirai.

A special 2 Count Handicap was put on the Sena Shiori Vs Hyper Misao match. Shiori only needed to pin Misao for a 2 Count to win. If Misao got at least a 2 Count then she had to correctly answer a quiz question to win. Misao was also allowed a lifeline if she got a 3 Count. The questions asked by Tetsuya Koda were all about Shiori. Misao quickly pinned Shiori with a Cradle from a Handshake. “What move was used to end Shiori’s debut match?” Misao answered Dropkick but was wrong. Misao got a 2 Count from a School Boy. “What is Shiori’s date of birth?” Misao answered 14th September, 2002 but was wrong. Misao did another School Boy and this time got a 3 Count. “Where did Shiori go with her friend Hikari Noa to celebrate her birthday?” Misao was allowed a lifeline so she used Noa as her Phone A Friend. Noa hinted it was a theme park in Osaka. Misao answered Universal Studios Japan but was wrong. She yelled at Noa for giving her a bad hint. Misao went back and got a 2 Count pin. “What martial art did Shiori learn in elementary school?” Misao said Kyodo but was wrong once again. Shiori gained control of the match until Misao knocked over the referee. Shiori had Misao pinned but no ref was around to count it. Misao regained control and got a 2 Count with the Hyper Gotham Crash. “Where did Shiori go with her friend Hikari Noa to celebrate her debut match?” Misao thought about it and answered Universal Studios Japan again. She was correct which means she wins the match!

Himawari Unagi got to wrestle Miyu Yamashita for the first time since their match last October where Unagi got injured.

The ring announcer Sayuri Namba received some great news at the start of the show. She entered a competition to become a RIZIN round girl but was eliminated early on. Well today she found out she won a poll out of the eliminated contestants to re-enter the contest! She hopes to become a round girl and get RIZIN to promote Tokyo Joshi Pro in the process.

1. Moka Miyamoto Debut Match: Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori defeated Moka Miyamaoto & Suzume when Maiumi pinned Miyamoto with a Lariat (8:25).
2. Himawari Unagi Return Match: Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Himawari Unagi & Haruna Neko when Harajuku pinned Unagi with the Pom do Justice (8:18).

5. Yuna Manase Regular Participation Last Match: Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Natsumi Maki defeated Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Maki Itoh when Yamashita pinned Tenma with the Crash Rabbit Heat (16:06).
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Tatsumi pinned Misao with the Missile Hip (13:50).
*V3 for Daydream.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Yuki Aino with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (18:00).
*V3 for Yuka Sakazaki.

The world of Tokyo Joshi Pro is constantly evolving. Yuka Sakazaki proved that by doing a 450 version of the Magical Girl Splash to beat Yuki Aino. Even Sakazaki herself was surprised by how far she flew with that move. She said after the match that she shouldn’t be stagnant in situations like these which is why she used what is now called the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro. She celebrated in the ring with Mizuki to close out the show. Sakazaki’s next goal is to win the Tokyo Princess Cup so she can continue her title reign without having any further challengers.

Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao pulled out all the stops in their attempt to win the Princess Tag Team Titles. It’s been six months since TJPW was in Korakuen Hall so the two of them wanted to give everyone a fun and exciting pro wrestling match. The most exciting thing they could think of was beating Daydream by any means necessary! Misao used cold spray to blind Miu Watanabe and taped her feet to the corner post so she was left hanging outside the ring. Misao brought out her bicycle and tried to run Watanabe over but Watanabe lifted herself up and Misao crashed into the railing. Nakajima filled the ring with kaiju toys but she was slammed on top of them by Watanabe. She used the Tear Drop on Nakajima, leaving Rika Tatsumi to scoop up the win by hitting Misao with the Missile Hip Attack. The champions agreed it was a really fun match.

Yuna Manase has bid farewell to Tokyo Joshi. She won’t be gone forever but her future lies elsewhere. In the final moments of her match, Manase took a Skull Kick from Miyu Yamashita. There were no hard feelings over it, they hugged after the match. Manase hugged Mizuki and Natsumi Maki too. She said she loved being inside the Tokyo Joshi ring. She will definitely come back again someday and when she does she will be able to fight on a higher level.

Jealousy reared its ugly head within Cat’s Pye, causing Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa to face off in a Gravure Wrestler Showdown. Shirakawa won the match with her Glamorous Strong Style Facebuster. There was a tense moment afterwards when Kamifuku hesitated shaking Shirakawa’s hand. But she did so and and two friends left the ring together. Kamifuku said in a backstage interview that she wants to learn more about pro wrestling now she has been doing it for four years. Shirakawa has been inspired by Jushin Liger but he doesn’t match Kamifuku’s taste. So Kamifuku is going to start watching Shuji Ishikawa matches from All Japan.

The other two thirds of The Up Up Girls had a singles match together. Raku came close to a win with the Doctor Yellow. Hikari Noa hit back with a Lariat and won with the Uranage. The result has only motivated Raku to try even harder for her first singles win.

Himawari Unagi returned to the ring for her first match in nine and a half months. She had a new costume and new entrance music for her comeback match. She reunited with three of the other HiSPC wrestlers, teaming with Haruna Neko to wrestle Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu. Neko got rid of Kiryu with the Codebreaker but Unagi couldn’t seal the deal. Harajuku hit the Pom do Justice to end Unagi’s return with a loss.

The newest Tokyo Joshi debut is Moka Miyamoto. She majored in Japanese Culture at university which is why she wrestled in a hakama. Suzume was there to help out but most of the match was Miyamoto trying to fight off Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori.

There will be 21 women entering this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. The full list is Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Shoko Nakajima, Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Natsumi Maki, Mizuki, Hyper Misao, Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino, Hikari Noa, Raku, Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa, Haruna Neko, Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Himawari Unagi, Mirai Maiumi and Suzume.

The Tokyo Dome City Hall show will go ahead on 7th November. At the moment they are permitted to set up the venue to 50% capacity.

7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Maki Itoh & Raku when Watanabe pinned Raku with the Tear Drop (15:22).
*V2 for Daydream.

After a 4 month wait, the Princess Tag Team Titles were finally defended again. Daydream earned their second defence by beating Maki Itoh & Raku in the main event. Miu Watanabe was put in danger when Itoh gave her a Swinging DDT and Raku followed up with the Doctor Yellow. Watanabe kicked out though and turned things around to win the match with the Tear Drop. She was happy to wrestle against Raku in a title match because they both work so hard to be here. Rika Tatsumi said she wanted strong opponents for their next defence at Korakuen Hall. Out came Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao! Nakajima explained she was supposed to have an International Princess Title match in America but that was cancelled. So she now wants to fight for the Tag Titles instead. Misao is teaming with her because Misao cannot think of anything more exciting than the two of them fighting against Daydream for the belts.

We now have the next challenger for the Princess Of Princess Title for 23rd July. Yuki Aino used a High Angle Double Arm Suplex to beat Yuki Kamifuku after a few close shaves. The move is called “UBV” but it also has an alternate name called “Infinite Love And Fire”. Aino called out Yuka Sakazaki after the match. Aino told her she isn’t just challenging her for the Princess Title, she is going to win it! Sakazaki said Aino has no future if she doesn’t push herself further in their title match.

Natsumi Maki painted “Poi” onto her face correctly this time.

Himawari Unagi has her return match on 23rd July. She had been out of action for around 9 months. She sees herself starting from the bottom again because there are now wrestlers on the roster who had their debuts during her absence.
