BASARA “BASARA 321 ~TAKAGARI 36~”, 23/11/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Union MAX Title – Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

Two stipulations have been added to the Union MAX Title match. The first is Isami Kodaka wants to add an Over The Top Rope rule as a winning condition. Takumi Tsukamoto agreed to this and made the match Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls so a definitive winner comes out of the match. You can call it a fluke if you lose via Battle Royal elimination once but if it happens to you twice then you can’t really complain about it.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KAMIYU AND HER MERRY FRIENDS ~A SPECIAL CLASS CURSED OBJECT I ENCOUNTERED IN SHIKAKU~”, 27/11/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Hyper Misao & Takeshi Masada Vs Sakura Hattori & Kumadori
2. 4 Way Match: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Sumire Natsu Vs Mahiro Kiryu
3. Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Shin Sakura Katsushika Hirota
4. Ryo Mizunami & Yumehito Imanari Vs Yuki Aino & Zac (Battle Mode)
5. Special Tag Match: Aja Kong & VENY Vs Yuki Iino & Yuki Kamifuku

The blooming pair of Sakura Hattori & Kumadori was originally put together by Yuki Kamifuku so it’s makes sense for her to bring them back together on her show. You need a wild card tag team to take them on. Hyper Misao & Takeshi Masada fits the bill. Maybe keep Bunbun away from Zac.

BASARA “BASARA 319 ~UTAGE AOI – SOUEN~” Results

October 27, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 319 ~UTAGE AOI – SOUEN~”, 27/10/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ryota Nakatsu defeated Tantan Menso with a Back Roll Clutch Hold (7:43).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Shota Nakagawa defeated Banana Senga and Gouma Ryu when Nakagawa pinned Ryu (6:41).
3. 3 Way Tag Match: SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi and Daichi Kazato & Yasu Urano when SAGAT pinned Kazato (9:07).
4. Isami Kodaka & FUMA defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Takeru Inoue when FUMA submitted Inoue with the Cross Armbreaker (12:47).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura when Kamino pinned Shimomura with the Lariat (17:49).
*V7 for Aijin Tag.

BASARA history is being made after today with Aijin Tag having tied the record for most Iron Fist Tag Team Title defences in a single reign. Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura were their challengers today thanks to winning this year’s IRON FIST Tag Tournament but Shimomura fell to Masato Kamino’s Lariat while Katsumura was too busy fighting with Takato Nakano outside the ring to save his partner. Aijin Tag took back their complaint that Shimomura & Katsumura had an easy ride through the tournament and praised them for being strong opponents. Nakano & Kamino then talked about how hard they worked together for the last ten years and now they are the kings of the tag team scene on the independents! Over on the other side, Shimomura said he likes the dynamics of teaming with Shimomura so much that he wants it to continue in either BASARA or Ganbare☆Pro. Shimomura though is currently feeling exhausted and he has two back to back title matches in one day coming up in GanPro to worry about. But if he does win the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title he wants to bring it over to BASARA.

It was revealed that Isami Kodaka chose Takashimadaira Kumin Center to be the venue for his Union MAX Title challenge against Takumi Tsukamoto because he believes that is where there rivalry was born. Also since he became the next challenger out of winning an Elimination Tag Match, he wants the title match on 23rd November to add an Over The Top Rope Elimination rule as an extra win condition. He then joked that it will boost his odds of winning the match by 1%. Tsukamoto agreed on the condition that the match will also be Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls so their rivalry can be settled once and for all. He is confident he can beat Kodaka without losing a single fall.

Before this month’s court proceedings began, Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga spent some time talking about the TV show “VIVANT”. Senga then told everyone he is ready to talk for 20 minutes straight once the trial starts. Shota Nakagawa was accused of embezzling donations by acting like the money was being collected for an animal welfare organization. Nakagawa quickly showed proof of his innocence by providing evidence of the money being legitimately transferred to the charity. However Senga wanted to continue talking so he brought up a magazine cover that Nakagawa appeared in, claiming he was somehow profiting from the charity. Nakagawa again proved he was innocent by explaining it was for a free paper and he received no money for doing the photoshoot. Senga continued throwing accusations at Nakagawa including one referencing the recent shoplifting scandal revolving around the comedian Hiroyuki Sugiyama. After being told only five minutes had passed, Senga lost his cool and turned the crowd against him by claiming that BASARA’s female fans only go to shows in order to ogle at the male wrestlers. Soon Nakagawa found himself having to fight both Ryu and Senga but he was easily able to beat them and earn a Not Guilty verdict.

Great Wakabayashi-kun Returns, Upcoming BASARA Title Matches, A Love Triangle Is Happening To Love Triangle

October 13, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 14/10/2026
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi/Great Wakabayashi-kun Vs Pom Harajuku Vs HIMAWARI
2. Next Generation Tournament ’26 – Round 1B: Shion Kanzaki Vs Chieri Sakimori
3. MIRAI Vs Momo Sato
4. Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami
5. Shoko Nakajima & Pokotan Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Zac (Battle Mode)

Earlier this year Rika Tatsumi debuted a new personality at “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” named The Great Wakabayashi-kun. The alter ego hasn’t been seen since but Tokyo Joshi Pro has received word that Wakabayashi-kun will re-emerge at tomorrow’s “TJPW INSPIRATION” show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW FALL TOUR ~RAY OF HOPE IN KASUKABE~”, 24/10/2026
Saitama Katsuki Fureai Cube Matsunaga Multipurpose Hall

1. Next Generation Tournament ’26 – Losers Bracket: Momo Sato Vs Loser Of Match 1B
2. Next Generation Tournament ’26 – Winners Bracket: Ren Konatsu Vs Winner Of Match 1B
3. Special Tag Match: Miyu Yamashita & Yuki Kamifuku Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine

After the first Next Generation Tournament match took place we can now see Ren Konatsu going in the right direction and Momo Sato heading towards the wrong direction.

BASARA “BASARA 319 ~UTAGE AOI – SOUEN~”, 27/10/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura

The makeshift duo of Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura ended up winning the IRON FIST Tag Tournament and are now set to face Aijin Tag for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’26”, 08/11/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Next Generation Tournament ’26 – Final: Winner Of Winners Bracket Vs Winner Of Losers Bracket
2. Yui Debut Match: Yui Vs X
3. Shiori Futaba Debut Match: Shiori Futaba Vs X
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Nagisa Nozaki Vs X & X
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro (c) Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

Love Triangle by name, love triangle by nature. The first challengers for Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed are Raku & Pom Harajuku. The two of them have been very close with Yuki Aino for many years now with Aino at one time promising the three of them would somehow all hold the Princess Tag Team Titles at the same time. So now that Aino is champions with Haru Kazashiro, the pair known as RakuPom wants to know what gives? It will be Aino and her new love fighting against her old loves. Both the championships and Aino’s fiery heart will be on the line!

So not only are we getting the idol Shiori Futaba making her wrestling debut but TJPW will also be debuting their latest trainee Yui on the same show! I think they may have jumped the gun on holding the Next Gen Tournament right now because if they had waited a month they could have added two or even three more entries to it. All depends on if Futaba will be sticking around after her match.

BASARA “BASARA 321 ~TAKAGARI 36~”, 23/11/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Union MAX Title: Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

Even Isami Kodaka himself would admit he’s past his best days but the chance has come up for him to become the Union MAX Champion one more time. The current champion Takumi Tsukamoto is one of the people Kodaka has entrusted to actually running the company behind the scenes.

BASARA “BASARA 318 ~TAKAGARI 35~” Results

October 12, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 318 ~TAKAGARI 35~”, 12/10/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced

-. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – B Block Final: Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida by Forfeit.
1. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – A Block Final: SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Shota Nakagawa when SAGAT pinned Nakagawa with the Gore Grind (11:40).
2. Chicharito Shoki defeated Daichi Kazato with an Inside Cradle (8:34).
3. 4-On-4 Elimination Match: Takumi Tsukamoto, Isami Kodaka, FUMA & Seiya Morohashi defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino, Takeru Inoue & Tomoki Hatano (19:57).
3a. Seiya Morohashi eliminated Takato Nakano by Ring Out (10:41).
3b. Takeru Inoue eliminated Seiya Morohashi with a Cradle (12:55).
3c. FUMA eliminated Masato Kamino with an Armbar (14:10).
3d. Tomoki Hatano eliminated FUMA with the Diving Guillotine Drop (14:21).
3e. Isami Kodaka eliminated Tomoki Hatano by Ring Out (16:05).
3f. Takeru Inoue eliminated Takumi Tsukamoto by Ring Out (17:08).
3g. Isami Kodaka eliminated Takeru Inoue with the Isamiashi Zan (19:57).
4. Tantan Menso defeated Judo Master with a Gedo Clutch (7:37).
5. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – Final: Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken when Shimomura pinned Kraken with the Swanton Bomb (14:01).

Earlier today at a Ganbare☆Pro show in the same venue, Shuichiro Katsumura talked about how potentially wrestling three matches in one day is a piece of cake for him. He ended up only having to wrestle in two. He and Daiki Shimomura received a bye into the IRON FIST Tag Tournament final because Ayato Yoshida suffered a left knee sprain at a 2AW show earlier in the day and had to be pulled from this show. The Super Family defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Shota Nakagawa in the only semi final to happen on the show. In the final SAGAT was able to break out of Katsumura’s Ninja Choke but Shimomura scored the win by pinning Lil’ Kraken with the Swanton Bomb.

After they were rewarded with the trophy, Shimomura thanked Katsumura for teaming with him on short notice before calling Aijin Tag to come into the ring. They made fun of the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions for getting eliminated in the first round and then asked when they are getting their title shot? Takato Nakano pointed out that Shimomura & Katsumura only reached the final because of a bye and it doesn’t sit right with him that they won the tournament without having to wrestle Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida first. He decided the title match will happen on 27th October and Masato Kamino promised they won’t lose to a pair of scrawny little runts!

Judo Master and Tantan Menso spent their match arguing whether or not tantanmen ramen is a Japanese dish or a foreign dish. It is based on a Chinese recipe but Menso claims it is a domestic product because the ingredients come from Chiba. Master tried to attack Menso with a pair of nunchucks but ended up getting pinned with a Gedo Clutch.

By being the sole survivor of the Elimination Tag Match, Isami Kodaka challenged Takumi Tsukamoto for the Union MAX Title. Kodaka explained that he usually isn’t very good with Elimination Tag stipulations so winning one today should definitely earn him a title shot. Tsukamoto accepted and also allowed Kodaka to choose the date and location of the match. Kodaka picked Takashimadaira Kumin Center, the venue they are in right now and the match will happen at BASARA’s next show here on 23rd November. Tsukamoto warned that he is incredibly strong right now and Kodaka is completely aware of that.

With Yoshida pulling out due to a sudden injury, 2AW sent over Chicharito Shoki to the show as a last minute replacement. BASARA decided to eliminate Kazato & Yoshida from the tournament so Kazato’s new match was a singles bout with Shoki. During the match Shoki started imitating Yoshida by finding different ways to bully Kazato. It reached a point where Kazato had to convince Shoki he wasn’t Yoshida while speaking as if Yoshida was no longer among them. The two wrestlers hugged and Shoki suddenly cradled Kazato for the three count. Both of them then encouraged the fans to chant for Yoshida.

BASARA “BASARA 317 ~UTAGE~” Results

October 2, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 317 ~UTAGE~”, 02/10/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano defeated Gouma Ryu, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Tsukamoto submitted Ryu with a Crab Hold (8:46).
2. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – A Block Round 1: SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Judo Master & Muscle Master when Kraken pinned Judo with the Period. (11:23).
3. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – B Block Round 1: Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated Isami Kodaka & FUMA when Shimomura pinned Kodaka with the Asai DDT (16:30).
4. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – A Block Round 1: Ryota Nakatsu & Shota Nakagawa defeated Takeru Inoue & Tomoki Hatano when Nakagawa pinned Inoue with the Swanton Bomb (12:16).
5. IRON FIST Tag Tournament – B Block Round 1: Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Kazato pinned Nakano with the Rocket Punch Body Press (14:11).

The first round of this year’s IRON FIST Tag Tournament sees some big teams already getting eliminated including the reigning Iron Fist Tag Team Champions! That’s right, Aijin Tag lost to the odd couple team of Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida. The result is disastrous for Aijin Tag because Yoshida spent just as much time trying to fight Kazato as he did with them. He even put Kazato through a table and left him for Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino to pick up the scraps. However Kazato wouldn’t give up and seemed to finally win over Yoshida when he bit the bullet for one of the opponent’s double team moves. Kazato then took advantage of the confusing chaos to land the Rocket Punch Body Press on Nakano and pin him for the victory. Aijin Tag blame themselves for the loss and will watch the rest of the tournament from the sidelines to see who will challenge them for the tag titles next. Meanwhile Kazato thanks the fans for their support while Yoshida said the fans should be thanking him because he’s the only reason why he and Kazato won today.

Ryota Nakatsu & Shota Nakagawa joked that they used the power of baseball to defeat the Death Volleyball Club. In reality the admit they didn’t rely on a lot of teamwork between them and even suffered some friendly fire that could have cost them the match. They also think if Takeru Inoue & Tomoki Hatano can be called a volleyball club then maybe Nakatsu & Nakagawa can call themselves The Walk Club.

On paper the team of Isami Kodaka & FUMA should be competitive enough to run the bracket but they’ve been knocked out in the opening round thanks to Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura. FUMA got caught up in Katsumura’s Ninja Choke while Shimomura used the Asai DDT on Kodaka to pin him. The winning team thought they were facing Aijin Tag in the next round and were surprised to find out that won’t be the case. They agreed not to get pulled into Kazato’s world of playing games and instead go for a quick victory. It will be a busy day for Katsumura because he will be wrestling at Ganbare☆Pro too.

The first match in the bracket had to be changed when Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Seiya Morohashi both fell ill with love sickness. The team replacing them were the masked men of Judo Master & Muscle Master. The team introduced themselves as the “Master Of Softness” and the “Master Of Hardness”. SAGAT responded by calling the two of them hard to deal with. He also seemed to recognise Muscle Master was really Morohashi judging by his body shape. SAGAT unmasked him and discovered that Morohashi had his face painted like The Great Muta underneath! Morohashi gave SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken some Dragon Screws then sprayed water instead of Poison Mist. The water missed and got Judo Master by mistake. Krake then gave Judo the Period. for the three count. The Super Family think they won the match but also believe the could have been just a fever dream.

The semi finals on 12th October will be SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken Vs Ryota Nakatsu & Shota Nakagawa and Daiki Shimomura & Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida.

No Repeat Rule, Takeshita And Chihiro Back Against Each Other, VENYU Finale

August 28, 2026

DDT “LAST SUMMER STANDING ~SUMMER’S RECKONING~”, 30/08/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Naomi Yoshimura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Yuni & Yuki Ishida
1. Special 8-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Yasu Urano, Akito & Soma Takao Vs Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku, Kazuma Sumi & Masami Inahata
2. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y Vs Jun Akiyama & Fuminori Abe
3. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: KANON, Yukio Naya & Viento Levante (w/ KIMIHIRO & YUZUKI) Vs Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai
4. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title ~ A One Time Trump Card -NO REPEAT RULE-: Shunma Katsumata (c/c) Vs Kumadori
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata
6. DDT Universal Title: Ryusuke Taguchi (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki
7. KO-D Openweight Title: MAO (c) Vs Daichi Sato

The stakes for the match between Shunma Katsumata and Kumadori have suddenly grown higher. Katsumata recently won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title so he now has to defend that belt alongside the DDT Extreme Title. He also decided on the match stipulation where he and Kumadori are not allowed to repeat their moves. The match can be won either under normal circumstances, by throwing your opponent over the top rope out of the ring or if they get disqualified for doing the same move twice. However striking moves are generic enough to not count towards the stipulation so Kumadori can at least rely on punching and kicking to make up for his limited moveset.

The Right To Challenge Gauntlet holders going into this weekend’s show are Chris Brookes (Red) and Antonio Honda (Purple AAAA).

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAM TAMAGAWA IN BOATRACE TAMAGAWA”, 02/09/2026

4. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & To-y Vs Chihiro Hashimoto & Kazuma Sumi
5. Yuki Ueno 10th Anniversary Match ~ Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Shunma Katsumata

Why did it take seven years to run back Konosuke Takeshita Vs Chihiro Hashimoto? Okay, okay, I know. He’s been busy with AEW and New Japan while every time Hashimoto came to DDT it was to fight either Yuki Iino or Shinya Aoki. But hey we get To-y and Kazuma Sumi get thrown into the mix as well.

7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title – GRACE GROUP Presents: Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Shigehiro Irie with the Elbow To You, Dear (23:18).
*V5 for Mizuki Watase.

The main event brought back the days of RENEGADES with Mizuki Watase entering the ring wearing a suit to defend the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title against Shigehiro Irie. It was a match where Watase surpassed his close friend, almost knocking him out with Elbow Strikes. He also used a version of the Venetian that looked a lot like the Tenzan Tombstone Driver on the same day that Hiroyoshi Tenzan was retiring from wrestling. Irie was still conscious from the strikes and had enough whereabotus to tell the referee not to stop the match. Instead, Irie continued to take the blows for one last stand until he fell towards Watase. He was caught and Watase thanked Irie before knocking him down with one last Elbow Strike and pinning him to win.

Watase thanked Irie again after the match and joked he can bring him to Disney Land sometime. Watase is proud to say everything he learned in wrestling was taught to him by Irie and he will become the greatest masterpiece Irie has ever trained. Irie didn’t want to take the credit and told Watase he did it all by himself. He remembers a beautiful show they saw together at Disney Land that featured a line once said by Walt Disney: “It’s just been a sort of dress rehearsal, and we’re just getting started.” Watase and Irie are only just getting started too. Later backstage Irie described the match as a “Dramatic Dream”. Watase understands that and does not forget where the two of them came from.

Takumi Iroha had been looking forward to her first singles match with YuuRI today. She always thought she had a knack for wrestling and the pre-match comments from YuuRI about surpassing her idol sounded kind of scary to her. Iroha is used to younger wrestlers who pick fights with her having a chip on their shoulder but she found it refreshing to see YuuRI express herself without trying to act cool about it. Iroha enjoyed wrestling her today and looks forward to crushing her again and again. YuuRI said she would give it her all to start a big revolution today but it didn’t happen. But if her performance motivated the fans to work harder then she can accept that result with no regrets.

New champions were crowned earlier in the show when Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated The Deadlock to win the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles. Katsumura & Susumu also now have the team name Sussun Katsun. The MMA fighting vibes were felt throughout the match when Tyson Maeguchi pulled a tyre out to lure Katsumura into a Tyre Boxing fight. However the referee refused to let that happen and got rid of it. Katsumura ended up putting Takuya Wada into a Ninja Choke and tapped him out while Susumu held back Maeguchi in a Crossface. The Deadlock have said they want to remain a team after losing the titles but they may also go fight each other in a singles match to push each other into improving more.

After the match, Katsumura said there is no other 50 year old like him. Susumu can’t say that because he is 43. Sussun Katsun then opened themselves up to be challenged by anybody. Rydeen Hagane walked out to answer their call followed by her opponent earlier in the night Moeka Haruhi. The two decided they have to be the first challengers for the new tag champions. Katsumura & Susumu attempted to cheap shot them but Hagane knocked the both of them down with a Double Lariat. She and Haruhi then posed with the title belts. Backstage Haruhi described her team with Hagane like Beauty & The Beast. Hagane also said she is the original Ganbare☆Joshi, having first appeared in GanPro during its debut year in 2013 as Gorikiko. So she thinks she definitely deserves to be a champion here!

Ken Ohka felt like he had a great day today. He took on a rare double booking at Korakuen Hall where he won both matches. First he beat Yumi Ohka in a Ohka Contra Ohka match that main evented a WAVE show (Yumi now cannot use the name Ohka for the next two and a half months) then later here in GanPro he scored the winning fall in a 6-Man Tag Match that continued the celebration of his 25th Anniversary in wrestling. Even more impressive, he pinned Isami Kodaka to get that second win. Now he’s feeling so good about this anniversary he wants to hold a third match to celebrate it and challenged Yumehito Imanari. However, Imanari got angry at the idea because he thinks Ganbare☆Pro has been relying too much on anniversaries in general lately to book their matches instead of coming up with other storylines. It’s annoying enough that Ohka wants a third commemorative match to begin with.

Today was the final GanPro show for referee Nido Teshima. He is the referee for TTT Pro Wrestling and will be retiring on 1st September, 2027 but today was his last appearance in GanPro. The roster gifted Teshima with a bouquet and celebrated with him to end the show.

BASARA “BASARA 313 ~SUPER BRILLIANCE~” Results

August 2, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 313 ~SUPER BRILLIANCE~”, 02/08/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. FUMA, Ryuichi Sekine & Seiya Morohashi defeated Daiki Shimomura, Takeru Inoue & Yasu Urano when FUMA pinned Inoue with the Atomic Bomb (11:32).
2. Grace Project Presents – 3-Way 6-Man Tag Match: SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita defeated Captain Grace, Yusaku Ito & Violento Jack and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) when SAGAT pinned Hiroshi with the Dynamic Bomb (9:16).
3. Ayato Yoshida defeated Daichi Kazato with the Leg Clutch Back Drop (12:39).
4. Dosukoi no Tsudoi Presents: Ryota Nakatsu defeated Shunma Katsumata with the V Slider (13:58).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto when Nakano pinned Kodaka with the Takagari (15:15).
*V5 for Aijin Tag.
6. Union MAX Title – Clutch Supporters Association Presents: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Shuji Ishikawa (c) with the Zudon (18:41).
*Shuji Ishikawa fails in V5. Takumi Tsukamoto becomes the 25th Union MAX Champion!

After eight months the Union MAX Title is now back around the waist of a BASARA wrestler. Takumi Tsukamoto kicked out of the Giant Driver and went on to pin Shuji Ishikawa with the Zudon to cause the title change. There were no hard feelings over the result and Ishikawa wrapped the title around Tsukamoto after the match. The new champion said when he stepped into the ring today it felt like his opponent was 4 metres tall but a real man always wants to hunt the big ones. Tsukamoto told Ishikawa he was the first person he ever had a Lighttube Death Match with and today he is happy to beat him in an important Korakuen Hall main event. He also thanked him for doing his part to make BASARA more exciting over the last year.

Tsukamoto invited the rest of the BASARA locker room into the ring for the closing speech. Ryota Nakatsu brought up the upcoming closure of Shinjuku FACE next month and reminded everyone the venue held BASARA’s first show ten years ago. He challenged Tsukamoto for the MAX Title at BASARA’s final show in Shinjuku FACE on 23rd September. However, Daiki Shimomura interrupted him and said that date is still a while away. He brought up how he was the only person to beat Tsukamoto in Tsukamoto’s 7-Match Trial last month so he should be getting a title shot first. Tsukamoto agreed to put the MAX Title on the line against Shimomura in Shin-Kiba 1st RING on 21st August. The winner and therefore the champion will then go on to defend the title against Nakatsu at September’s Shinjuku FACE show.

Aijin Tag are marching on towards their goal of breaking the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles record for most defences. They are now at five wins after beating Yankee Two Kenji. The win came from Masato Kamino giving Isami Kodaka a Lariat before Kodaka could lift up Takato Nakano for a Power Bomb. Then while Kamino took care of Yuko Miyamoto, Nakano climbed the top turnbuckle and hit the Takagari on Kodaka for the three count. Kamino called it a decisive win which means Aijin Tag has now surpassed Yankee Two Kenji! Miyamoto admitted the goal he and Kodaka put forth today was quite high for them to reach. They’re both becoming old men but they are still going out there because they are strong.

Former rivals and classmates from the DNA days met each other again when Nakatsu took on Shunma Katsumata. Since this match was happening in BASARA that meant Katsumata’s Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere Gauntlet was not on the line (the rule was changed to being DDT exclusive a few years ago). The match came close to ending in a Double Knockout but they both got back up to continue fighting until Nakatsu won by using the V Slider. Nakatsu later said he was really grateful that Katsumata wrestled here today given that he is also booked for a DDT show in Osaka later this evening. He thinks it was fun to have two people who have worked so hard in the last ten years clash against each other.

BASARA “BASARA 312 ~UTAGE~” Results

July 24, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 312 ~UTAGE~”, 24/07/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ali Najima defeated Takeru Inoue with a Crab Hold (9:10).
2. Daiki Shimomura & Kota Sekifuda defeated Lil’ Kraken & Yuki Kanzaki when Shimomura pinned Kraken with the Swanton Bomb (15:02).
3. FUMA defeated SAGAT with a Chickenwing Arm Lock (10:01).
4. Ryota Nakatsu defeated Thanomsak Toba with a Rear Naked Choke (7:58).
5. Isami Kodaka, Yuko Miyamoto & Shuji Ishikawa defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Miyamoto pinned Nakano with the Moonsault Press (16:22).

20 years of connective bonds and experience between Shuji Ishikawa, Isami Kodaka & Yuko Miyamoto was the difference maker in today’s BASARA main event. While the result focuses more on Yankee Two Kenju beating Aijin Tag, it was Ishikawa who got on the microphone afterwards to ask Takumi Tsukamoto thinks he really can climb the mountain and win the Union MAX Title? Tsukamoto said he can do it but Ishikawa warned that Tsukamoto will feel the pain to the fullest on 2nd August. Isami Kodaka then asked Aijin Tag if they really think they fought like champions today? Takato Nakano said the only reason why Kodaka is standing out right now is because Yuko Miyamoto is with him. Kodaka claimed that even though he is a BASARA wrestler, on 2nd August he will be wrestling like an outsider with Miyamoto.

Ryota Nakatsu called his match with Thanomsak Toba a warm up for the Shunma Katsumata bout on 2nd August. With the Korakuen Hall show coming up, Nakatsu spoke to media after the show and talked about last summer’s BASARA show at Korakuen. That was when BASARA management went through a change and while they were worried about the state of the company, they ended up drawing their largest crowd in history. This year Nakatsu thinks his hunger for success has diminished a little and the company still isn’t stable yet but everyone there is giving it their all. He won’t know how the Korakuen show will go until he sees the results of everyone’s hard work.
