*V2 for Touchable.

Although Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya lost to Touchable in the title match main event, they still have belief in their abilities to change Japan in a positive way with their pro wrestling. Moriya told Ohka they just need to energize and do their best.

After Match #4, Yuto Kikuchi gestured to Mizuki Watase that he wants to fight him for a championship next time. Watase signalled that he can fight him for either the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title or the King Of FREEDOM World Tag Team Titles.

Shuji In BASARA, Max Heart Final, “Newcomer” Akito, GanPro Title Matches

February 2, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 299 ~TAKAGARI 32~”, 11/02/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Yuki Ishida
2. SAGAT Vs Lil’ Kraken
3. Isami Kodaka & Ryuma Sekimo Vs Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano
4. Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino Vs FUMA & Seiya Morohashi
5. Shuji Ishikawa, Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga

As long as Shuji Ishikawa hold the Union MAX Title, he is going to treat BASARA like a second home. He is currently scheduled to be on all of their shows for February and March.

The Super Family are hitting some sort of rough patch after failing to win the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on the last show. Lil’ Kraken wonders if they should split up but SAGAT still wants to team with him. After taking a day to think about it, the decision was made to have the two face each other in a singles bout. Is this just something to get their frustrations out or will it be a (super) family rift that cannot be healed?

Yuki Ishida from DDT makes another appearance here. He’ll take on BASARA’s young prospect Takeru Inoue in the opener.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 14/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ren Konatsu Vs Shion Kanzaki
2. Miyu Yamashita, Kaya Toribami, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Hyper Misao, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Kira Summer & Chika Nanase
3. Shoko Nakajima & Sara Phoenix Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
4. Max The Impaler, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Ryo Mizunami, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro
5. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida
6. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu (c) Vs Aja Kong
7. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Toga
8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Mizuki & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara

It’s new territory for the Max Heart Tournament because the current Princess Tag Team Champions have reached the final for the first time. Ober Eats are now just one win away from winning the whole thing and living up to the votes they got for the Best Tag Team category in the recent Tokyo Sports Awards. Meanwhile Mizuki & Uta Takami are on something of a miracle run as a tag team, although they want to prove they deserve to be here through hard work and well earned success instead of luck and good fortune.

There’s an alternate timeline where Daydream and Kyoto Tag could have been a semi final match in the tournament. Instead they’re facing each other on the undercard to help build up March’s Princess Of Princess Title match between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai.

Opponents have now become tag partners. Shoko Nakajima liked wrestling Sara Phoenix so much she wants to team with her. They may end up being a bounce back team for Daisy Monkey though.

A first win awaits for either Ren Konatsu or Shion Kanzaki.

DDT “NEPPA OVER FLOWERS 5 ~THE ONLY SAUNA IN THE WORLD~”, 14/02/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Young Boy Akito Nishigaki Shinjuku FACE Debut Match: Young Boy Akito Nishigaki Vs Rukiya
2. Shinya Aoki Vs Hinata Kasai
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Brahman Sasaki Vs Daichi Sato, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shin KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, MAO & Takeshi Masada Vs Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Koju Takeda
5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Pokotan
6. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y

This is the full card but the only confirmation of the match order is the opener and the main event. Yuki Ueno challenges Pokotan to a one on one battle while Akito returns to his rookie roots to wrestle as Akito Nishigaki once more. Also there is another Brahman Brother among us! Unless I’m reading the name wrong and it is Barman Sasaki instead of Brahman Sasaki.

GANBARE☆PRO “A SCANNER DARKLY 2026”, 22/02/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Mizuki Watase

The time has come for Mizuki Watase to challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title again. He won the title before against seemingly impossible odds and can repeat the feat if he can dethrone Masaaki Mochizuki.

GANBARE☆PRO “KINKI CHIHO NO ARU BASHO NI TSUITE 2026”, 01/03/2026
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya

When a tag match pitting Touchable against Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya was put together for Ganbare☆Pro’s return to Osaka, Ohka asked for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles to be put on the line.

“GAISEN SAKURA PRO WRESTLING”, 11/04/2026
Okayama Shinjo Village

The show Ryuichi Sekine and Nodoka Tenma are putting together will consist of six matches, three from Tokyo Joshi Pro and three from BASARA. The TJPW roster taking part will be Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino, Mahiro Kiryu, Arisu Endo, Haru Kazashiro, Mifu Ashida, Kira Summer and Chika Nanase. Also Aja Kong will be part of the show as a special guest.

GANBARE☆PRO “NEW YEAR’S BLUES 2026” Results

January 31, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “NEW YEAR’S BLUES 2026”, 31/01/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
185 Fans

1. Akira Shoji defeated Sentaro Motoshima with a Reverse Triangle Choke (5:29).
2. Hong Kong International Police Woman defeated Hong Kong International Police Man with the Ojosama Clutch (14:41).
3. Yuna Manase & YuuRI defeated Chanyota & Non Toraga when Manase pinned Toraga with the Lariat (8:24).
4. Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase defeated Fuminori Abe & Shota Kawakami when Ohka pinned Kawakami with a Bear Elbow (17:11).
5. Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated Yumehito Imanari & Keisuke Ishii when Susumu submitted Ishii with the Crossface Lock (15:53).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with a Crucifix Pin (17:08).
*V5 for Masaaki Mochizuki.

It was a rocky road to get to this show with some changes happening along the way. Masaaki Mochizuki was supposed to defend the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title against Munetatsu Nakamura but Nakamura pulled out with a neck injury and was replaced by Shinichiro Tominaga. Then the location of the show had to change from Takashimadaira Kumin Center over to Shin-Kiba 1st RING on short notice because the first venue was being turned into a polling station for the upcoming House Of Representative elections.

In the main event, Tominaga came close to winning with his finisher but Mochizuki countered it with a sudden Crucifix Pin to win the match and survive a close shave. He praised Tominaga for acting like a pinch hitter for today’s show. He heard that Tominaga is the strongest “amateur” pro wrestler but today’s performance showed there is nothing amateur about him. He had more of a sense for pro wrestling than many people Mochizuki has fought in the past. Mizuki Watase entered the ring and talked up Mochizuki for being a great champion. Watase feels like he is at the point where he can beat a great champion like Mochizuki so he wants a title shot. The champion knew he would face Watase some day but didn’t expect it to be this soon, although he admits the time is right in Watase’s case.

Yuya Susumu has come back to Ganbare☆Pro on a mission to get a singles match against Keisuke Ishii. In today’s tag match he countered Ishii’s Double Arm DDT into a Crossface Lock, making Ishii immediately tap out to the move. Susumu then promised he isn’t going to run away from GanPro just because he beat Ishii today. He’ll come back so he can get that singles match he wants so much.

At the end of the show Ken Ohka announced he will be teaming up with freelance wrestler Hiroaki Moriya at GanPro’s Osaka show on 1st March. They are scheduled to face Touchable at the show so Ohka wants the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles to be on the line. Yumehito Imanari agreed to the challenge but only on the condition that Ohka goes and vote in the elections before then.

More last minute changes were needed when Moeka Haruhi and Choun Shiryu both unexpectedly no showed the event. Luckily GanPro had two replacements on hand who had a grievance with each other. Hong Kong International Police Woman defeated Hong Kong International Police Man in a match that was built around a crime case involving police corruption.

Moriya Wants To Energize GanPro, New Seattle Matches Announced, Misao Return Match

November 1, 2024

Saitama Takashina Elementary School

1. Shunma Katsumata, To-y & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yukio Naya, Yuya Koroku & Yuki Ishida
2. Special Tag Match: Makoto Oishi & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Akito & Kaya Toribami
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno, HARASHIMA & Tetsuya Endo Vs Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura

I think the expectation is for To-y to have recovered from his stomach bug in time to be able to wrestle tomorrow.

GANBARE☆PRO “HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER 2024”, 03/11/2024
Osaka 176BOX

1. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase Vs HARUKAZE & YuuRI

3. Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Tsuyoshi Okada Vs Shuichiro Katsumura, Shota Kawakami & Hiroaki Moriya
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Naoki Tanizaki & Kohei Kinoshita
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Hartley Jackson

Hiroaki Moriya is coming to Ganbare☆Pro looking to “Energize” the place. He’s been in the ring with Ken Ohka before but hasn’t with Yumehito Imanari so he’s looking forward to fighting both for different reasons.

DDT “SUMIDA DRAMATIC DREAM! ~FREE SEATING PRO WRESTLING SHOW~”, 04/11/2024
Tokyo Higashin Arena (Sumida City Gymnasium)

1. Maruto Potori Foods Presents Tag Match: Keigo Nakamura & Yuki Ishida Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi

8. KO-D Openweight Title – Houset Co., Ltd Presents: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Chris Brookes

Thought we were all clear from Shinya Aoki’s threats to fight Katsuhiko Nakajima somewhere down the line? Not so fast! Aoki held a short interview with Tokyo Sports today where he said his goal is to hold onto the KO-D Openweight Title long enough that he will still be the champion when he has a grappling match in ONE FC this December. Aoki cannot believe he got a fight in ONE scheduled before he got a booking in GLEAT. He then started rambling about Nakajima and asking why he hasn’t been in the news lately?

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

1. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida

5. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Kohei Kinoshita
6. DDT Universal Title – 3 Way Match: MAO (c) Vs Mike Bailey Vs Miyu Yamashita

Miyu Yamashita’s involvement in the DEFY weekend is resulting in some creative matchups. She was already announced as one of MAO’s opponents in the DDT Universal Title match and now we know the other opponent is Mike Bailey! Yamashita could be at a disadvantage if The Moonlight Express decided to use the numbers game against her.

This is not the full card. Both Nick Wayne and Marina Shafir have been announced for the show and do not have their matches announced yet.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LOOKING AROUND THE WORLD, ISN’T JAPAN AMAZING AFTER ALL!?”, 10/11/2024

6. World Omori Title: Soma Takao (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

Masahiro Takanashi is chosen to face Soma Takao for the World Omori Title. There is also going to be a Battle Royal to determine next year’s No. 1 Contender.

The full force of BURNING must meet the power of Chikara head on! No one shall be spared.

DDT/TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TRIANGLER DTD”, 10/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA

1. Special Single Match: Gringo Loco Vs Miyu Yamashita
2. Special Tag Match: MAO & Mike Bailey Vs Judas Icarus & Travis Williams
3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Yuni

Come on Tony, give Yuni a shot at the AEW International Title. Do it for the sickos.

The Moonlight Express will team up proper at the end of the DEFY weekend for a tag match against Sinner & Saint.

I don’t know what kind of person would ever think up a Miyu Yamashita Vs Gringo Loco match but that’s some good booking right there.

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

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: X Vs X
2. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shazza McKenzie

Big children rejoice for it’s the return of Hyper Misao to save the day! No better choice for her first match back from injury than to team up with Shoko Nakajima as Kyoraku Kyomei again. Rika Tatsumi will certainly welcome her back with a big hug that will suspiciously look a lot like a strangulation. Arisu Endo will probably stand to the side and give it a thumbs up.

Zara Zakher will be on the show.

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

1. Akito 15th Anniversary Debut Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Akito
2. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Danshoku Dieno (c/c) Vs Yuni
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku

BURNING have found themselves back in the front of the line for a KO-D Tag Team Titles shot. This time however Tetsuya Endo is teaming with Yuya Koroku instead of Yuki Iino. Koroku has a pinfall win over Shunma Katsumata and that interested MAO enough to accept his title challenge.

5. UWA World Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Isami Kodaka & Hideyoshi Kamitani

Isami Kodaka already had one crack at winning the UWA World Tag Team Titles from Aijin Tag and failed. He convinced them to give him another go because this time he has an even more powerful tag partner, Hideyoshi Kamitani from Big Japan. Yesterday Kamitani became the first wrestler ever to hold both the BJW Strong World Heavyweight Title and the BJW Death Match Heavyweight Title at the same time so he’s now coming into the match as Big Japan’s Double Crown champ.

6. Kiranah Garden Toyosu First Opening Commemoration! Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Chris Brookes Vs MAO & HARASHIMA

DDT wants to make a big splash for their first show at Kiranah Garden Toyosu so the main event is Shinya Aoki & Chris Brookes against MAO & HARASHIMA.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TJPW BRIGHT EYES”, 09/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews

When 121000000 won the Princess Tag Team Titles the first time they lost it in America on their first defence. In order to make sure the second reign will succeed they are going to try this scenario again. This time instead of facing The Magical Sugar Rabbits in Los Angeles they are going to fight Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews in Seattle. In the minds of the champions Vixen & Matthews are a makeshift team being put together to challenge them. However in DEFY they are two rivals attempting to put aside their differences in order to both become champions again.

Zara Zakher has been added to the show. Speaking of Zakher…

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

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Toga Vs Winner Of Match 1B
2. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Winner Of Match 1C Vs Winner Of Match 1D
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Zara Zakher

… she’s also returning to Tokyo Joshi Pro for another tour of Japan in November! She eliminated Miu Watanabe from the Tokyo Princess Cup during the summer so it’s been decided she will get a Princess Of Princess Title shot during this tour. It will also be the first time in five years when the title will be defended in Osaka. The last time that happened was Shoko Nakajima defending the belt against Mizuki back in September 2019.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “GANBARE☆ONITA OYA☆PRO WRESTLING RAISING A FLAG” Results

January 13, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “GANBARE☆ONITA OYA☆PRO WRESTLING RAISING A FLAG”, 13/01/2020
Osaka City Suminoe Maikon Hall
163 Fans

1. Ganpro Vs DDT Full Battle: Shunma Katsumata defeated Shuhei Washida with a Buzzsaw Kick (12:54).
2. Special Tag Match: Ultimate Spider Jr. & Itsuki Aoki defeated Miss Mongol & Mizuki Watase when Spider pinned Watase with an Inverted Hurricanrana (9:54).
3. Ganpro Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Yumehito Imanari when Ishii pinned Imanari with the Double Arm Extreme Driver (13:53).
4. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with the Praying Mantis Bomb (14:02).
5. Scramble Bunkhouse Street Fight 6-Man Tag Death Match: The Great Nita, Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya defeated Kenichiro Arai, Guts Ishijima & Shota when Ohka pinned Shota with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster (17:05).

The return of The Great Nita saw him attack Shota with a sickle, blind him with the Poison Mist and put him through a table with a Piledriver. He also attacked Guts Ishijima with the remains of the table. Ken Ohka got rid of Kenichiro Arai with the Fire Spear while Hiroaki Moriya took out Ishijima with a Lariat. The finish came when Ohka pinned Shota with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster.

But that wasn’t the end. Nita attacked Yukio Naya at ringside after the match and left him in a bloody mess with his sickle. Nita then wandered away and banged the sickle against the ring post. Ohka promoted the next Bakuha Koshien show on 28th March. He mentioned Atsushi Onita being absent from today’s show and assured everyone he will be back at Bakuha Koshien. Nita then attacked Ohka with the sickle but he got away mostly unharmed.

The language barrier was a little difficult but Chris Brookes got the message across to Ohka that he wants to be part of the Bakuha Koshien show when he comes back to Japan. Brookes was a big FMW fan growing up and he could never do an explosion match in England. He not only wants to take part in the match, he also wants to fight against Onita! It might kill him. If it does, it could also get him on the cover of Shukan Puroresu.

The second match turned out to be a lot more dangerous than expected. Mizuki Watase missed a Missile Dropkick intended for Ultimate Spider Jr. and hit Miss Mongol by accident instead. Mongol fainted which sent Watase into a rage. He charged at Spider but got pinned with an Inverted Hurricanrana. After the match Spider told everyone he wanted the match to be safer. He placed a chair down at the entrance stage and sat down in protest over how careless the match turned out. The other wrestlers simply lifted up the chair with him still sitting on it and carried him out of the room.

A 10 bell tribute was given to the late Kendo Nagasaki before the main event.
