Konosuke Takeshita made a request to take April off from DDT. He isn’t sick or injured. Instead he wants to take a chance to evolve into something stronger and needs to be away for a month to do it. Sounds kind of familiar, doesn’t it? If it means what I think it means then I couldn’t be happier for the guy. Anyway he returns to DDT on 4th May.

BOYZ “BOYZ BE AMBITIOUS! 2021”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2nd Floor

An email sent from the address new.damnation.japan.com@gmail.com was sent to the DDT office asking for an opportunity to be recruited for DAMNATION. The mystery person asked for Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao Vs Chris Brookes & Jun Masaoka to take place on the BOYZ show. Oh, and the email is signed under Jun Masaoka’s name. The email was forwarded to BOYZ producer Akito and after some consideration he agreed to put the match together.

YAROZ “YAROZ PART 9 ~THE SAME DAY AND SAME VENUE DECISIVE BATTLE WITH THE FATEFUL BOYZ! NEVER LOSE TO THOSE WHO ARE POPULAR! RAISE UP THE YAROS! SHOW OFF A MAN’S STORY OF BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS!~”, 04/04/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 1st Floor

DDT’s newest signing Yusuke Okada really wants to be part of the BOYZ brand. Unfortunately everyone else thinks he is more suited to YaroZ whether he likes it or not. So for the BOYZ Vs YaroZ double booking, Okada will be wrestling on the YaroZ show.

DDT “APRIL FOOL 2021”, 11/04/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno

There have been two wrestlers who have either stood up to Jun Akiyama or criticized his role in DDT. Akiyama just dispatched of Kazusada Higuchi so he now has to take care of Danshoku Dieno. Dieno accepted that Akiyama became part of DDT’s history when he signed a contract but the temptation of becoming KO-D Openweight Champion one more time means he cannot stay quiet anymore! If Akiyama hasn’t experienced full blown DDT before, he will now.

Chris Brookes & Baliyan Akki will provide commentary and the episodes will last around 15 minutes each. Tetsuya Koda explained the name has a double meaning. The J in “THAT’S J-PW” stands for both Japan and Joshi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STILL INCOMPLETE”, 17/04/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Nao Kakuta
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Maki Itoh

A criticism that has been aimed towards Nao Kakuta since she started wrestling for TJPW is that she is too normal to stand out. Even her challenge to Yuki Kamifuku for the International Princess Title was considered plain or even a bit boring according to the champion. Kakuta thinks it is fine to be normal. She can be called the Normal Of Normal Princess as far as she is concerned. Her other nickname is “Rat Chaser” (she used to have a catgirl gimmick) and she found her rat in the form of Kamifuku. All she has to do now is catch her! Kakuta also said that she has no senpai or kohai figures in TJPW because she came from somewhere else so she feels comfortable enough to stretch out and use her own fighting styles that she likes.

DDT “MAX BUMP 2021 TOUR IN NIIGATA”, 18/04/2021

6. “Celebrity Of Niigata” Super Sasadango Machine Local Triumphant Return!: Super Sasadango Machine, Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Soma Takao & Mad Paulie

The spotlight shines on Super Sasadango Machine and Gorgeous Matsuno in Niigata.

Whether he wins the KO-D Tag Team Titles or not, Yuji Okabayashi will at least be around for another DDT show in April. In a match against Akiyama too.

Match #2. That is all.

GANBARE☆PRO “GANBARE☆JOSHI PRO WRESTLING ~BUTTERFLY DANCE 2021~”, 24/04/2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SPRING TOUR ’21 ~THE BULLET~” Results

March 27, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SPRING TOUR ’21 ~THE BULLET~”, 27/03/2021
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
142 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Hyper Misao defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Mirai Maiumi & Suzume when Misao pinned Kiryu with the I Am A Hero (10:13).
2. Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Aino submitted Shiori with the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire (12:40).
3. Shoko Nakajima, Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Marika Kobashi & Arisu Endo when Kakuta pinned Endo with the Shiden Kai (12:06).
4. Sakisama (w/ Mei Saint-Michel) defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Versailles Foot Choke (9:34).
5. Maki Itoh, Miyu Yamashita & Raku defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku when Itoh submitted Harajuku with the Itoh Deluxe (14:48).

A little war of words has been brewing between Rika Tatsumi and Maki Itoh as we get closer to their Princess Of Princess Title match. Recently Tatsumi accused Itoh of losing her sharpness in the ring. Itoh admitted that was true but today she showed she has it back. In her experience, having no confidence is what led to her sharpening her skills. Her trip to AEW made her realize the world recognizes how charismatic she is so she now has more confidence and pride in herself. On 17th April, this charismatic woman will win the title then take Tokyo Joshi Pro to Budokan Hall, no wait Saitama Super Arena, no wait the Tokyo Dome! That’s right, the Tokyo Dome!

Itoh used her Headbutt to block Tatsumi’s Missile Hip Attack during the match. Tatsumi told reporters her hips are already made of diamond so it didn’t hurt her. She also doesn’t believe that Itoh has her sharpness back yet. Instead she thought Itoh was more giddy than usual.

Sakisama received a lot of help from Mei Saint-Michel to beat Moka Miyamoto. It’s a bit weird because you’d think she wouldn’t need it. Saint-Michel’s interference spots included grabbing Miyamoto by the feet at ringside, trampling over her on the floor, pulling Sakisama to the ropes to break up a Manjigatame and giving Miyamoto a Facecrusher onto the silver tray. The Bakuretsu Sisters came out after the match to confront their Korakuen Hall challengers. NEO Biishiki-gun started making fun of them, calling the champions Korakuen Pork over and over. After they left, Nodoka Tenma joked that she likes beef better than pork. Yuki Aino told her that’s not the point but then came up with the idea of actually selling Korakuen Pork during the show. It would sell more than the Korakuen Hall chicken goujons!

With another win today, Nao Kakuta feels it is time to fight for the International Princess Title. She challenged Yuki Kamifuku to a title match on 17th April. Kamifuku said of all of the challenges she heard so far, this was the most normal sounding. Kakuta told her normal is the best way to get her message across and there is nothing wrong with being normal. Kamifuku fired back by saying Kakuta would then be better suited with a “normal” title instead of the International Championship. She accepted the challenge and tried to sneak attack Kakuta with an eye poke during a handshake. Kakuta blocked it and grabbed Kamifuku by the hair before they both backed off.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “POSITIVE CHAIN” Results

February 11, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “POSITIVE CHAIN”, 11/02/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
507 Fans

1. Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko defeated Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto when Harajuku pinned Miyamoto wit the Pom Do Justice (7:11).
2. Yuna Manase, Nao Kakuta & Raku defeated Hikari Noa, Mahiro Kiryu & Sena Shiori when Raku pinned Shiori with the Doctor Yellow (7:25).
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Suzume & Arisu Endo when Sakazaki pinned Endo with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (12:54).
4. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel when Itoh pinned Saint-Michel with the Flying Big Head (16:54).
5. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) defeated Mirai Maiumi with the Diving Fame Asser (9:46).
*V1 for Yuki Kamifuku.
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) defeated Shin Ultra Shoko & Hyper Misao when Aino pinned Shoko with the UBV (13:28).
*V2 for The Bakuretsu Sisters.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) defeated Miu Watanabe with the Missile Hips (18:18).
*V1 for Rika Tatsumi.

The Daydream showdown marked Rika Tatsumi’s first defence of the Princess Of Princess Title. She survived a Top Rope Canadian Backbreaker Drop from Miu Watanabe then countered the Tear Drop into the Twist Of Fate. From there Tatsumi hit Watanabe with Hip Attacks until she got the pin with the Missile Hips. Tatsumi thought she was going to be too strong for Watanabe but that didn’t happen at all. She thinks that is amazing and thanked Watanabe for fighting her. She will continue to support Watanabe building the bridge between idols and pro wrestling. Tatsumi also has a dream and that is to make Tokyo Joshi Pro bigger. The two of them agreed to continue teaming together as Daydream and they will enter the “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament beginning later this month.

A big battle requires big armour. The Tokyo Joshingers arrived for their Princess Tag Team Titles match wearing new combat suits which left the referee Yukinori Matsui looking confused. The Bakuretsu Sisters tore the armour off to start the match. Yuki Aino cut off Shin Ultra Shoko by pulling her down by her cloak. Shoko freed herself from the cloak and wiped out the Sisters outside the ring with a Suicide Dive. Hyper Misao followed up by throwing a dislodged piece of her Combat Bicycle at them. The challengers had their chance but Aino suddenly countered Shoko’s Northern Lights Suplex into the Venus DDT. She then finished her off with the UBV for the three count. Backstage after the match, Shoko said she will entrust Misao and The Bakuretsu Sisters to protect the world while she returns to the stars. Her month as a superhero has ended and Shoko Nakajima will return. She also wants the Sisters to have her mask while she is gone. Misao is sad to see Shin Ultra Shoko leave already but she still wants to team with Nakajima for the Max Hearts Tournament. Nodoka Tenma promises to win the tournament so everyone will remember The Bakuretsu Sisters as TJPW’s number one tag team.

Sadly for Mirai Maiumi, the Miramare Shock did not happen today. She was all ready for it too with a new look. Yuki Kamifuku had something new of her own to show off, a new entrance song. Kamifuku kicked away Maiumi’s custom steel case made for today’s match and even closed it over her opponent’s head for added insult. Maiumi trapped Kamifuku in the Miramare submission but Kamifuku found ways to get out of it. She ended up winning with two Fame Assers, one from the second rope. Maiumi wonders if Kamifuku delivered her own Miramare Shock before the match even happened. She kept making fun of Maiumi’s rural background and all it did was make Maiumi notice things about her that she never noticed before. Maiumi promises she will deliver the Miramare Shock some day and when she does, everyone will be seeing a new Mirai Maiumi. Kamifuku said was a little worried because her opponent today has a lot more passion for pro wrestling than she does. Mirai watches a lot of famous wrestling matches and copies what she sees. Kamifuku doesn’t want to be a parody so she put more effort into her entire package today so she would win as herself instead of an imitation. She thinks it is better to show your attitude than to talk. A shock happens on its own, it is not something you can force.

The Max Hearts Tournament is on the minds of everyone in TJPW. A lot of the results were signs of intent from the women towards winning the whole thing. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh made their message loud and clear with a big victory over NEO Biishiki-gun. No amount of cheating with roses and silver platters could stop them. Yamashita wiped out Sakisama with the Skull Kick while Itoh pinned Mei Saint-Michel with the Flying Big Head, handing Saint-Michel her first loss in TJPW. Even though Itoh ultimately wants to beat Yamashita someday, she sees they make a good team together. Yamashita agrees. It’s a mystery how their styles are so different but still fit each other. Yamashita is also pleased she won a match against Sakisama. She knows she will beat her in a singles match when the time comes.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits are trying out a new move called the Yukacchi Bomb but they haven’t quite figured it out yet. It involves Mizuki doing a Sunset Flip on Yuka Sakazaki and they both land on top of their opponents to pin them. However the move also does damage to Sakazaki which makes her lift her shoulders and weakens the pinning attempt. Still, Mizuki wants to continue working on the move because it is good for them to keep challenging themselves. It’s a good thing that the experiment didn’t cost them the match because Suzume & Arisu Endo threw everything they had at them. Suzume got Mizuki out of the ring for Endo to finish Sakazaki off. But Sakazaki fought back and got the win with the Magical Merry-Go-Round.

Hikari Noa came out of her match wanting to face Nao Kakuta more often. She also wants a singles match against Yuna Manase. Both Mahiro Kiryu & Sena Shiori were disappointed they’re not at a stong enough level yet to show off their growth to Manase. Raku however was at her happiest. She won the match and got to do it in front of her two “older sisters”. Since Manase is working so hard over in Ganbare☆Pro she keeps thinking she has nothing left to do in TJPW. But there’s more to wrestling than big matches so whenever she can use her connections for a TJPW booking, she’ll look forward to being there.

Last time in Korakuen Hall, the team of Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko lost to Moka Miyamoto. Today they got their win back against her. Neko got rid of Marika Kobashi with the Codebreaker leaving Harajuku to get the win with the Pom Do Justice. The pair want to team up for the Max Hearts Tournament with the team name Harunyan.

TJPW will have a show in for a women only audience at Itabashi Green Hall on 4th April. They originally planned to do the concept a year ago but it had to be cancelled because of the pandemic.


Sakazaki, Itoh And VENY Enter AEW Tournament

February 4, 2021

The big news related to Tokyo Joshi Pro over the last 24 hours has been AEW announcing the field for their upcoming women’s tournament. Half of the brackets will take place in Japan (it was accidentally leaked that Saitama Wrestle Butokan, aka the Ice Ribbon Dojo is being used as the venue and content has already been taped) and two wrestlers from TJPW will be involved. Yuka Sakazaki makes her long awaited return to AEW but the even bigger story is Maki Itoh will be entering too! Those who already know of her reputation are over the moon about this news. Everybody else won’t know what hit them. Asuka will also be taking part, wrestling under the name VENY which she made to become her moniker for wrestling overseas.

Shin Ultra Shoko is back from injury. Her broken nose did not break her heart so she was able to make a quick and full recovery.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “POSITIVE CHAIN”, 11/02/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto Vs Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko
2. Yuna Manase, Nao Kakuta & Raku Vs Hikari Noa, Mahiro Kiryu & Sena Shiori
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
4. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Shin Ultra Shoko & Hyper Misao
6. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Mirai Maiumi
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Miu Watanabe

The contract signing for the three title matches has taken place. Rika Tatsumi made it clear her goal as the Princess Of Princess Title is to defend it for a century. When she teams with Miu Watanabe as Daydream, she thinks of ways to use Watanabe as a weapon against their opponents. So she already has ideas of how to attack Watanabe directly. It is a special match for her but she is not nervous. She has already been champion for a month and has learned to be calm about it. Watanabe thinks she has already grown thanks to wrestling against Tatsumi over the last month.

Mirai Maiumi created her own attaché case to represent her International Princess Title shot. She wants to become the champion to give courage and energy all over Japan. She promises her match will be the Miramare Shock miracle! As champion, Yuki Kamifuku purposely wants to make people feel jealousy. That way everyone will pay attention to her and Tokyo Joshi Pro.

The creation of Shin Ultra Shoka has reminded Hyper Misao of her original intentions when she became a superhero. She wants to create a superhero squad of Tokyo Joshi! There are five colours in the hero squad and two have already been filled. Red and green. That leaves blue, yellow and pink. If the Tokyo Joshingers win the Princess Tag Team Titles then they can add The Bakuretsu Sisters to their squad. Nodoka Tenma wants to be the blue ranger but she would rather still be champion. She also wants Shoko Nakajima to go back to normal so they can team with her as the Tokyo Joshi Special Effects Club again. They would even prefer Misao to join the club rather than they join the Joshingers. Yuki Aino also reminded the challengers that it’s the people that give heroes their powers and they will use that power to defend the belts.

When an impromptu title match between Shota and Yasu Urano ended in a short time limit draw, a rematch had to be scheduled. However, Shota still has an Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title defence against Arata taking place in JUST TAP OUT on 15th January. If he loses the title there then his rematch with Urano will become just a normal singles match. Urano wants his match to have consequences and is trying to get Shota to put his hair on the line if he no longer has the championship.

Ikuto Hidaka continues to blaze through the Ganbare☆Pro roster. Shuichiro Katsumura is next to face him, both because he is defending Ganpro’s honour and he wants to face strong opponents.

Akiyama’s return match is here. Tetsuya Endo is already getting impatient waiting for him to come back. Because of all the shows Akiyama will miss this month, this will be the only preview match he and Endo will have before “KAWASAKI STRONG 2021”.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Mirai Maiumi
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Miu Watanabe

The International Princess Title is making the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster aspire to spread their name overseas. Mirai Maiumi is stepping up to challenge Yuki Kamifuku for the title. Kamifuku is acting a little patronizing towards her over it because what would a rural girl know about going international? Maiumi wants to prove her wrong.

7. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Yukio Sakaguchi
8. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Jun Akiyama

Somebody tell Yuki Ueno not to poke the wolf. Yukio Sakaguchi made it clear he will choke out anyone who sides with Ueno up until the DDT UNIVERSAL Title match. So Ueno joking about Sakaguchi wanting to pose with the title belt whenever he wins is only going to make fighting him worse.

The full squads for the vacant KO-D 8-Man Tag Team Titles match have been decided. For once it looks like the whichever team wins can be relied on to appear on the same shows consistantly enough to defend the belts.

Smile Pissari will be fighting the heavyweight team of Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya. Naya’s progress (or lack of it) in the ring has been the story of his DDT run so far. HARASHIMA believes he is getting better and looks forward to fighting Naya at his strongest. If that doesn’t work at least we get Yuji Okabayashi and Higuchi in the same match out of this.

Nagoya Congress Center Event Hall

1. Hiroshi Yamato & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Yusuke Okada & Keigo Nakamura
2. Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya Vs Soma Takao & Mad Paulie
3. Chris Brookes & Maki Itoh Vs Antonio Honda & Saki Akai
4. DAMNATION Vs DDT Sauna Club!: Tetsuya Endo & Daisuke Sasaki Vs Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata
5. Junretsu Vs #STRONGHEARTS: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs CIMA, T-Hawk, El Lindaman & Shigehiro Irie
6. DDT Megatonweight Single Match: Yuji Hino Vs Yuki Iino
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Akito, Kazuki Hirata & Shota (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita & MAO

Some goofiness from Shunma Katsumata has led to the DDT Sauna Club getting the next crack at the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Katsumata wanted himself, Konosuke Takeshita & MAO to challenge the champions 3 on 2. That’s not allowed so he suggested only Takeshita & MAO get the title match instead. What a good friend. Too bad Sakaguchi knocked him out afterwards.

The #DAMNHEARTS business alliance between DAMNATION and #STRONGHEARTS is no more. CIMA and his associates are now no longer involved with DAMNATION’s activities. If they’re sticking around in DDT they will be going their own direction. Shigehiro Irie is coming back to DDT for a full scale 8-Man Tag against Junretsu.

Chris Brookes has had enough of Antonio Honda’s antics. So much so he is bringing Maki Itoh in to cause some trouble. Saki Akai has Honda’s back though.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 WINTER ~LOVERS~” Results

January 10, 2021

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2021 WINTER ~LOVERS~”, 10/01/2021
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
95 Fans

1. Yuki Aino defeated Arisu Endo with the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire (4:43).
2. Maki Itoh defeated Shiori Sena with a Crab Hold (6:55).
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Hikari Noa & Pom Harajuku when Sakazaki pinned Harajuku with the Osaekomi Backslide (9:22).
4. Shin Ultra Shoko & Hyper Misao defeated Nodoka Tenma & Haruna Neko when Shoko pinned Neko with the Ultra Northern Lights Suplex (8:11).
5. Mirai Maiumi & Suzume defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Moka Miyamoto when Maiumi pinned Miyamoto with the Back Drop (9:07).
6. Rika Tatsumi, Miyu Yamashita & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Miu Watanabe, Nao Kakuta & Raku when Tatsumi submitted Raku with the Strangle Dragon Sleeper (13:42).

Today was the first time Rika Tatsumi and Miu Watanabe wrestled against each other since they formed Daydream. It was also Nao Kakuta’s first main event in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Tatsumi was almost pinned by Raku with the Doctor Yellow but Mahiro Kiryu broke the pin. Tatsumi fought back with a Backbreaker to Raku and then made her give up to the Dragon Sleeper. Tatsumi is feeling good with her start to 2021. She’s going to keep going at this level heading into her first Princess Of Princess Title defence. She asked Miyu Yamashita & Kiryu if they can keep up with her.

Mirai Maiumi challenged Yuki Kamifuku for the International Princess Title. Kamifuku asked if she understood what international means? Maiumi does and she wants to spread her name across the world. Kamifuku thinks if Maiumi does her best she can turn the world into Maiumi Believers. She accepted the battle to determine who is more international! They’ll do it in Korakuen Hall on 11th February because according to Kamifuku it is one of Tokyo’s three major attractions that rural people like Maiumi love.

The “debut” of Shin Ultra Shoko saw her in red superhero gear coming out to the Ultraman Leo song. She did the Ultra Rider Kick, the Ultra Neckbreaker, the Ultra Butterfly Lock and won with the Ultra Northern Lights Suplex. She also did a double team move with Hyper Misao called the Ultra Hyper Judgement. It is the I Am A Hero and the Ultra Rider Kick done at the same time. Misao had to remind everyone during their post-match interview that everything Ultra is doing is not a copy of any existing superhero property. It is an original character!


Official TJPW Best Matches Of 2020

January 1, 2021

This was just going to be a list to tweet out but by the time they revealed the complete results I figured it would make a good blog post too.

The top listed matches will be included in the “BEST OF TJPW 2020” DVD being released later this year. A few matches were tied in the same spot with the same number of votes.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

December 6, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 06/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Mirai Maiumi defeated Haruna Neko with the Back Drop (6:15).
2. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Nao Kakuta defeated Maki Itoh, Pom Harajuku & Suzume when Tatsumi submitted Suzume with the White Dragon Sleeper (11:45).
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Sena Shiori & Moka Miyamoto when Sakisama submitted Miyamoto with the Versailles Foot Choke (13:00).
4. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Miyu Yamashita, Marika Kobashi & Hikari Noa when Aino pinned Kobashi with the Venus DDT (12:23).
5. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Hyper Misao & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Cutie Special (10:08).
6. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Fame Asser (11:45).
*V1 for Yuki Kamifuku.

Yuki Kamifuku came close to losing the International Princess Title in her first defence. When she went for the Fame Asser, Mahiro Kiryu caught her in the Spinebuster for a nearfall. Kamifuku used a Dropkick to regain control and hit the Fame Asser on the second attempt to get the win. After the match Kiryu said she was disappointed because she fought with all of her might and still lost. Kamifuku told her to continue working hard then asked if she still has other goals to fight for. Kiryu brought up the time they were supposed to team together to go after the Princess Tag Team Titles but Kamifuku had to pull out with an injury. Kamifuku apologised and Kiryu asked her if they could team up again. Kamifuku agreed and called out The Bakuretsu Sisters to challenge them for the belts. The Sisters walked out and immediately accepted. Nodoka Tenma said she always wanted to fight them and Yuki Aino could really feel the spirit coming out of Kamifuku and Kiryu. The champions want the match to happen at Korakuen Hall on 4th January! The challengers said their connection through Toyo University is like a brotherhood so the title match will be a battle between brothers and sisters!

Hyper Misao entered the ring for her match carrying a cooking pot. Now that she is married she has another dream she wants to achieve. She wants to be an assitant on a cooking show. Raku took the pot to demonstrate a 30 second hamburger steak recipe she knows because The Magical Sugar Rabbits love hamburger steak. When she finished, Misao opened the pot to reveal a can of cold spray was inside and she sprayed her opponents’ faces with it.

A serving tray is the new secret weapon behind NEO Biishiki-gun’s success. Mei Saint-Michel used it to block Moka Miyamoto’s attacks and then placed it behind Daisuke Kiso for him to slip on so she and Sakisama could do use more illegal tactics while he was down. Sena Shiori tried to save Miyamoto but the rookies were dealt with a loss at the end. NEO Biishiki-gun played innocent and acted concerned about the “accidents” that happened throughout the match.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits Vs Daydream was announced for 12th December.

DDT “HELL GATE DAI BUKAI”, 13/12/2020
Hell Gate

1. DDT Extreme Title – Hell Gate Dai Bukai For 5 People: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Amateur Wrestling “Nariagari” Five Elite People

Away from DDT, Danshoku Dieno started his own little project for training amateurs into becoming pro wrestlers. DDT would mention it here and there to help Dieno get some applicants but otherwise not much was ever made of it. All of a sudden, Dieno tells Sanshiro Takagi he has five elite students ready to hunt Takagi for the DDT Extreme Title! From the start of his title reign, Takagi has said he will defend the belt against anyone including amateurs. He will travel to a place described as a Hell Gate to fight these elite amateurs.

DDT “EXTREME RECAPTURE STRATEGY”, 02/12/2020
Tokyo Savage Field

1. DDT Extreme Title: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Rambo Kawamura

Sanshiro Takagi’s first DDT Extreme Title defence ended in disaster when Rambo Kawamura ambushed the champion and took the belt hostage! Guerilla tactics will be needed for Takagi to get it back because Kawamura has fled to the Savage Field, an outdoor area somewhere in Tokyo used for airsoft activities, shooting ranges and other gun hobbies.

DDT “OH LIFE IS ABOUT PRO WRESTLING”, 04/12/2020
PIA LIVE STREAM

1. DDT Vs Big Japan Pro Wrestling Full Scale Proxy War: Pokotan Vs Death Kamo-kun
2. Single Match Where Life Intersects: Yasu Urano Vs Makoto Oishi
3. Street Wrestling In Nemuro Where I See What Samson Miyamoto Left Behind: X Vs X

The mascots of both DDT and Big Japan face off. I suppose Pokotan and Death Kamo-kun will have a wrestling match but who knows what Danshoku Dieno wants them to do. He is hyping up the show by saying it will be something he has never seen anyone else do and it won’t broadcast anywhere outside of his Pia Live Stream.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 06/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Mahiro Kiryu

Last month, Yuki Kamifuku and Mahiro Kiryu were supposed to team together in Narimasu and fight for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. Kamifuku had to pull out of the match with a broken finger. When Kiryu challenged her for the International Princess Title this week, the champion knew it must take place in Narimasu for that reason.

Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel will be on the show. Two things happen every time NEO Biishiki-gun reappear in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Sakisama and her loyal partner go after the Princess Tag Titles and they end up feuding with the newer members of the roster. Suzume & Sena Shiori look to be the feud if Saint-Michel’s immediate opinion on them is anything to go by.

BASARA “BASARA 143 ~SPACE SHOT~”, 07/12/2020

5. Homoiro Clover Z Vs NωA Full Scale Battle ~ Oishi Contra Oishi: Danshoku Dieno, Akito & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Makoto Oishi

Long ago, way back in February of this year Homoiro Clover Z reunited at a BOYZ show. Their return was met with defiance from the also reunited NωA and the two sides argued over who the real music idols of DDT were. As a member of both units, Makoto Oishi was stuck in the middle and unable to choose a side. A decision was made to do an Oishi Contra Oishi match with the winners getting Oishi all to themselves. The idea was forgotten about when BOYZ came back in August but it’s happening here on Christmas Eve! Oishi has to wrestle for both teams too.

There is one other match to be announced.

GANBARE☆PRO “THE WORLD 2020”, 26/12/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) Vs Shota

Like a lot of people, Shota’s plans for 2020 had to be put on the wayside. He wanted to go on excursion to Mexico but that can’t happen. He also wants to win the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title this year but there is only one Ganbare☆Pro show left on the 2020 schedule. He had to convince Asuka it would be an easy defence for her in order to get the title shot.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi

The challenger Rika Tatsumi has begun secret Dragon training to prepare for her big Princess Of Princess Title match. She has a lot of history with Yuka Sakazaki. In 2013 both of them were part of a music group of wrestlers called DPG and then they joined Tokyo Joshi Pro at around the same time afterwards.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING
