2. Mizuki & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Raku
3. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro Vs Toga & Chika Nanase

5. Rika Tatsumi Vs Shoko Nakajima
6. Miu Watanabe Vs Hyper Misao
7. Yuki Arai & Ren Konatsu Vs Miyu Yamashita & Shion Kanzaki

After passing her first year in pro wrestling, Ren Konatsu is being rewarded with a main event spot teaming up with Yuki Arai! However Shion Kanzaki is only six months into her career though and she’s in the same spot teaming with Miyu Yamashita so who is to say which is the better reward for the respective amount of time in the business.

The two singles matches underneath could end up being previews for a non-existent match down the line. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao don’t have a problem with wrestling Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi under normal circumstances but they’re not so enthusiastic over the reason why the these matches are happening here.

Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Yuki Arai, Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Suzume Vs Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Wakana Uehara

It’s a champions versus challengers 8-Woman Tag Match once again.

DDT “CHARISMANIA IV”, 02/07/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: MJ Paul Vs Ryunosuke Nagai
2. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa Vs Keisuke Ishii

The further Daisuke Sasaki moves on from Best Of The Super Jr. the better. At least he doesn’t have to think about the tournament again for another 14 years. Now he can think about defending the O-40 Title with two opponents now chosen for the next title bout. Shuji Ishikawa and Keisuke Ishii both fit the bill so Sasaki will be fighting both in a 3 Way Match.

Ryunosuke Nagai is the 29 year old son of Mitsuya Nagai. He his pro debut last December and is showing up to “CHARISMANIA IV” for a match against MJ Paul.

The remaining lineup of the show at the moment is Hideki Okatani, Ilusion, Minoru Fujita, Yasu Urano, Sangre Aztca Jr. and Naohiro Katsumi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’26”, 18/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Aja Kong Vs Arisu Endo
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Wakana Uehara
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

We’re approaching the match that will either break the cycle or just start it all over again. Yuki Arai will be next defending the Princess Of Princess Title against Miyu Yamashita. In recent memory Yamashita once beat Arai in just over a minute but Arai then got to make Yamashita tap out in a 6 Way No. 1 Contender’s match that eventually led Arai to becoming the champion. With that said, Arai does not feel like she can call herself the true champion unless she can beat Yamashita one on one. Yamashita is coming into this match having just won the EVE International Title in England. Doing that made her want to win back the Princess Title even more. Is there no end to her insatiable desire for winning that championship again?!?

Last year’s “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS” had Kyoraku Kyomei beating Daydream in a defence of the Princess Tag Team Titles. This time around Daydream are the champs and they want a rematch at the show to avenge that defeat. The only problem is Kyoraku Kyomei do not want to challenge for the belts right now because they do not feel it is the right time to do so. They couldn’t win the titles in Las Vegas earlier this year and they don’t feel ready to climb that mountain again this soon. Daydream wants the match to happen anyway and it looks like they got their way. Protests from Nakajima & Misao may be on the way unless something happens to change their minds.

There’s no such trepidation in regards to the International Princess Title match though. Wakana Uehara is hungry to become the champion and isn’t shy about making puns about her appetite when it comes to challenging Suzume for the championship.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026”, 11/08/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Hinata Kasai 1st Anniversary Debut Match ~ Special Tag Match: Jun Kasai & Hinata Kasai Vs X & X
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Time Delayed Entry Battle Royal: Daichi Sato (c) Vs X
3. Special Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & X Vs Antonio Honda & X
4. Dramatic Dream Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Kaisei Takechi

It is only a matter of time until Hinata Kasai gets to team up with his dad Jun Kasai. It’s going to happen right when he celebrates the end of his first year as a pro wrestler. In the meantime, Hinata made it his goal to get his first direct win in a match before this show takes place.

DDT “DRAMATIC STYLE 2026” Results

June 10, 2026

DDT “DRAMATIC STYLE 2026”, 10/06/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Sanshiro Takagi & Yuni defeated HARASHIMA & Hinata Kasai when Yuni pinned Kasai with the Jorge Clutch (9:09).
2. Junta Miyawaki Three Match Trial – Final Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated Junta Miyawaki by Referee Stoppage with the Lip Lock (10:08).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Shunma Katsumata defeated Kazuki Hirata (c) with a School Boy (7:38 pm).
*Shunma Katsumata becomes the 1,821st champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Kazuki Hirata defeated Shunma Katsumata (c) with the Miracle One Shot Cradle (7:48 pm).
*Kazuki Hirata becomes the 1,822nd champion.
3. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato defeated Shunma Katsumata, Kazuki Hirata (c) & Kumadori when Koroku submitted Hirata with an Arm Lock (10:49).
*Yuya Koroku becomes the 1,823rd champion.
4. 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Ishida & Rukiya defeated Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda and Naomi Yoshimura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga when Ishida pinned Matsunaga with an Izorikatame (8:45).
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y defeated Shinya Aoki & Akito wen Ueno pinned Akito with the WR (15:11).
6. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul, Ilusion & Haruto Sakuraba defeated MAO, KANON, Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Viento Levante when Sakuraba pinned Levante with the Jackhammer (20:22).
*V1 for DAMNATION T.A.

It’s been about six months since the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles were last defended. DAMNATION T.A have been missing Demus during that time period but the rules of the championship allow up to two substitutes to allow the title match to still go ahead. The challengers Strange Love Connection welcomed back Yuki Iino, who wrestled wearing a bandana to hide his haircut and showed none of the “PASSION~!” that he’s been developing over in NOAH lately. DAMNATION T.A brought out the big guns for this match, having Haruto Sakuraba come in to take Demus’s place. MAO & Yukio Naya almost had Ilusion beat with their Charge Love Heart double team move but MJ Paul pulled the referee away during the pinfall. Daisuke Sasaki then ran in to hit people with a chair. The newly renamed Viento Levante landed a rope walk Diving Headbutt onto Sakuraba but the pin was stopped with a Brain Claw by “The Monster”. Sakuraba then hit Levante with Lariats before beating him with the Jackhammer.

After the match Sakuraba said he’s been in slumber for almost a year and yet here he is holding a championship belt without lifting a finger (I’m unsure if the rules have been changed to now recognize him as one of the champions). He told the fans to tremble in fear until the next time he wakes up! Backstage Sakuraba said SLC are all defective while DAMNATION T.A is a perfect unit with a charismatic leader. Ilusion then asked when will be the next title defence? It might be in another six months time or at the end of the year again. Who knows?

Yuki Ueno and Shinya Aoki got to sign the contract for their KO-D Openweight Title match before the show began. Ueno always respected Aoki but has grown to love him because Aoki loves pro wrestling and DDT so much. It makes Ueno think the way to beat Aoki is to conquer him with love. Aoki can see Ueno is carrying more weight on his shoulders now compared to their first title match in 2024. He understands the scale of what Ueno is trying to accomplish as champion this time around. After their tag match on today’s show, Ueno told Aoki that wrestling him is so much fun. He’ll be sad when he beats him and the buildup over the title match is over. Aoki said he is going to give Ueno a good beating.

Now that the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title is back in DDT, it has brought the hot potato title switches back to DDT shows. Kazuki Hirata lost the title to his own partner Shunma Katsumata before the match even began. Kumadori got the two of them to stop arguing in the middle of the match and dance with him instead. During the dance Hirata grabbed Katsumata and pinned him with the Miracle One Shot Cradle to win the belt back. Yuya Koroku then pulled Hirata into an Arm Lock and made him tap out so he now has the title. Hirata is not panicking over what happened because there is plenty of time to win it back before the Sumo Hall show later this summer. He might turn into “Hammer Hirata” again to get the belt back.

Junta Miyawaki’s DDT trial ended in defeat thanks to Danshoku Dieno using the Lip Lock with a Wrist Lock applied rendering Miyawaki unconscious. Dieno gave him another Lip Lock after the match to resuscitate him. He does not know why Miyawaki has come to DDT when he could have just stayed in NOAH and be a proper, respectable pro wrestler. Dieno has been in the business for 25 years and he has learned one thing more than anything else. When you put what you find is fun in life into your wrestling and the fans enjoy it then that is DDT. He then tried to give Miyawaki another Lip Lock but Miyawaki escaped and ran off.

Backstage, Miyawaki talked about his experiences in the trial series. He hates negative people but Antonio Honda, Kazuki Hirata and Danshoku Dieno are all the opposite of those kinds of people. He wants to wrestle them more so he can absorb their warm-hearted feelings. That was shown during the match with Dieno where Miyawaki used some of Honda’s and Hirata’s moves. He also admits he does not know how long he will be sticking around in DDT which is why he is cherishing every match he has here.

During the week DDT announced that Hinata Kasai is going to team up with his dad Jun Kasai for the first time ever at “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026” on 11th August to celebrate the 1st Anniversary of Hinata’s debut. Although he lost again today, this past week has felt like Christmas and New Year’s all happening at once for him because it’s been so hectic. He thinks he is nowhere near being able to stand with his father in the ring yet. The first thing he needs to do in order to begin closing the gap is to get his first win before that match takes place.

Ohka Wins TTT Gold, The IInspiration Coming To TJPW, Minimo-chan Is Training

February 18, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FINAL CURTAIN IN KOBE ART CENTER”, 21/02/2026
Kobe Art Center

1. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Pom Harajuku Vs Mahiro Kiryu
2. Haru Kazashiro Vs Shion Kanzaki
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Yuki Aino & Kira Summer
4. Shoko Nakajima & Chika Nanase Vs Yuki Arai & HIMAWARI
5. Aja Kong, Raku & Ren Konatsu Vs Hyper Misao, Mifu Ashida & Sara Phoenix
6. MIRAI & Toga Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
7. Miu Watanabe & Shino Suzuki Vs Mizuki & Uta Takami

This will be the final time Tokyo Joshi Pro comes to Kobe Art Center. The venue will be going under changes and the planned finished layout is considered to be unsuitable for holding wrestling shows according to Tetsuya Koda. So in the future TJPW will be looking for another venue in Kobe to host Mizuki’s homecoming shows. Somehow I don’t expect the Ring Soul bar to be among the options.

The International Princess Title scene gathers together for an important preview match. The current champion MIRAI is hanging around for a while and is teaming with her previous challenger Toga. On the other team is MIRAI’s next challenger Suzume along with her Daisy Monkey partner and former champion Arisu Endo.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LOVE & FLAME ~ THE BURNING VENUS RETURNS”, 22/02/2026
Okayama Mirai Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Raku Vs HIMAWARI Vs Ren Konatsu
2. Pom Harajuku Vs Sara Phoenix
3. Wakana Uehara Vs Chika Nanase
4. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Shion Kanzaki
5. Hyper Misao & Shino Suzuki Vs Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu
6. Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Kira Summer Vs Yuki Arai, Toga & Mifu Ashida
7. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro Vs Mizuki, Arisu Endo & Uta Takami

Yuki Aino doesn’t have to worry about a potential relocation for her homecoming shows though. She and the rest of the ToJo Tokusatsu Club will be headlining the event. Maybe they’ll get an update on their Super Sentai goal for Sumo Hall along the way.

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

1. Sentaro Motoshima Vs Reiya Igarashi
2. 3 Way Match: Moeka Haruhi Vs Papillon Akemi Vs Hora-chan

5. Shuichiro Katsumura, Yuya Susumu & YuuRI Vs Yuna Manase, Akira Shoji & Tyson Maeguchi
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Mizuki Watase

Over the weekend Ken Ohka won gold over at Total Triumph Team. He beat his one time nemesis Guts Ishijima to win the TTT Indie Unified Openweight Title. Also I didn’t find out about this until around the same time but Mizuki Watase won the KING Of FREEDOM World Tag Team Titles with Jun Kasai back on 23rd January.

DDT “IKETA ZE! IMAIKE 2026”, 07/03/2026
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuki Ishida
2. Junta Miyawaki Vs Yuni
3. STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION Vs FANTÔMES DRAMATIC!: MAO, KANON, Yukio Naya & X (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai

While Yuki Iino is away training for his American Football career, the still unknown new member of Strange Love Connection will take his place.

Junta Miyawaki continues to get in the ring with new faces during his stay in DDT. Next up for him is Yuni in a first time ever match up.

DDT “NANIWA FIGHTERS 2026”, 08/03/2026
Osaka 176BOX

1. Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida Vs Kazuki Hirata & Akito
2. Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuni
3. Special Single Match: To-y Vs KANON

Since DDT is heading back to Osaka, that means Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya get to reform their Toyonaka tag team. Due to injuries and other absences they haven’t been able to do this since 2024.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Hyper Misao & Super Sasadango Machine
2. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Suzume
3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Well, Ober Eats said they wanted to face a tag team that are a big deal. They also said they want to have the best match on the show and er… yeah… it’s nice to want things. Anyway TJPW went and got The IInspiration to be Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara’s next challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles. The Australian pair of Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee were known as The IIconics in WWE before going to TNA with the name change. They won the women’s tag team championships in both companies and just recently signed a deal with AEW so they match the requirements Ober Eats were looking for.

The mascot Minimo-chan spent Monday training with Mahiro Kiryu for its upcoming pro wrestling debut. Super Sasadango Machine gave Minimo-chan the task of learning a special move but Kiryu was sceptical over the mascot’s ability to wrestle. Minimo-chan proved her wrong by running the ropes, doing Wrist Locks and even performing a Side Thrust Kick to the ribs with ease. It then told Kiryu that with this kick it will win its debut match in Sumo Hall! An interview was held after training where Minimo-chan revealed it used to watch All Japan VHS tapes over and over until they all wore out. Its favorite wrestlers are Steve Williams, Doug Furnas and Dan Kroffat. Minimo-chan also aims to eventually fight for a championship!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 18/04/2026
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

How curious. The next TJPW Inspiration show will feature Rika Tatsumi, Mahiro Kiryu, Arisu Endo, Haru Kazashiro, Mifu Ashida, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase, Ren Konatsu and Shion Kanzaki on the card along with three guest wrestlers. While this is going on Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino and Toga will be in Las Vegas for Wrestlemania Weekend. Yamashita and Toga already have match bookings but the other three are so far only advertised for a meet and greet at WrestleCon. The mystery continues.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 27: THE NIGHT THEY CAME HOME” Results

January 13, 2026

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 27: THE NIGHT THEY CAME HOME”, 13/01/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes defeated Shota with the Daisuke Kiso assisted Hair Of The Dog (?:??).
2. Special Single Match: Tokyo Ganesha defeated Princess Ram with a Modified Cradle (?:??).
3. “Mr. Bueno” (MAO) & Mr. Malo defeated HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda when Malo pinned Honda after a Full Nelson/Codebreaker Combo (?:??).
4. Special Handicap Match: Jun Kasai defeated Dark King Ueki & Munek when Kasai pinned Ueki & Munek with the Cross-Arm Stimulation (?:??).

It’s back to business as usual inside ARENA Shimokitazawa, which means Baka Gaijin + Friends providing unexpected treats for the packed bar room. After the supposed main event had finished, Ueki’s Magic Kingdom interrupted Chris Brookes to complain about not being booked for the shot. As punishment Dark King Ueki & Munek “imprisoned” Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda behind the bar (which just meant they had easier access to the drinks) in an attempt to take over Baka Gaijin for themselves. However they did not expect Jun Kasai to come to the rescue! He challenged Ueki & Munek to a Handicap Match. In a battle of chairs, keyboards and plastics boxes filled with firecrakcers Kasai got the win by Piledriving Munek on top of Ueki before pinning them both.

After the match Kasai “freed” FANTÔMES DRAMATIC and revealed that he too is a member of the group! Brookes corrected him and said it is his son Hinata Kasai who is a member of Fandora and they don’t have room to add anyone else from his family. Jun understood the mistake and explained when he read on Twitter that FANTÔMES DRAMATIC were on the show today, he saw the name Kasai in the tweets and assumed it meant himself. That is why he came over today. However he doesn’t want to step on his son’s toes and decided he won’t join the unit after all. Honda assured Jun that Hinata is a wonderful human being and he will be looked after in Fandora.

Something was off about Mr. Bueno’s appearance today. He was here to team up with his brother Mr. Malo to fight HARASHIMA & Honda but his mask looked an awful lot like MAO in facepaint. He was in a good mood though and spoke English throughout the match so it was undeniably Mr. Bueno. He & Malo attacked Honda with their gloves and poncho but the same glove slaps had no effect on HARASHIMA. “Bueno” threw himself in HARASHIMA’s path to stop him from doing the Somato to Malo, then knocked him out with a distraction punch. Malo then revealed he had secretly switched his tecnico white mask back to his rudo black one and he gave Low Blows to the other team. He and his brother then finished off Honda for the victory.

A new friendly presence arrived in Baka Gaijin. The masked wrestler Tokyo Ganesha was happy to meet so many new people, among them was his opponent Princess Ram. She yelled into his ears and pulled his trunk. He tried to playfully fight back before losing his cool and throwing a hard Chop at Ram’s chest. Ganesha then tried to calm things down by picking up Ram to carry her through the crowd of fans. Ram then poured a drink over Ganesha’s head to make him lose his temper. She put up a tough fight, finding ways to counter his moves until he found a counter of his own for the Rainmaker, sweeping Ram onto her back with a roll up to get the win. Ganesha was happy with how his Baka Gaijin debut went and he gave Shin Suzuki a big hug on his way to the back.

The opening match between Brookes and Shota had other people dragged into it. Brookes brought in a couple of fans to slam them on top of Shota. He got a taste of his own medicine when Shota and a fan reversed a Brainbuster together. When the fight went back to being one on one, Shota kicked out of a Piledriver and climbed the bar counter to go high risk. Brookes used his knees to block a Diving Body Press and then used a bumpy moment with Daisuke Kiso to Mule Kick Shota below the belt. Shota got his own back when Brookes accidentally knocked out Kiso with a Chop but that meant Kiso wasn’t able to count the pinfall afterward. Kiso then became used as a weapon by both wrestlers as they tried forcing him to do double team moves. It ended with Kiso unintentionally giving Shota a Crucifix Pin while Brookes rolled over both of them to cradle Shota with a bridge. Kiso decided to count the pin from that position even though he was helping Brookes pin down Shota at the time.

The next Baka Gaijin + Friends show will be held in ARENA Shimokitazawa on 24th February.

SUPER JAPAN “NEVER MIND” Results

December 31, 2025

SUPER JAPAN “NEVER MIND”, 29/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Shota defeated Ryuma Tsukamoto with the Gannosuke Clutch (7:59).
2. DJ Nira Vs Muscle Sakai ended in a No Contest after a Referee Assault (8:55).
3. Mio Shirai defeated Marika Kobashi with the Murasaki Senko (7:12).
4. Special Tag Match – “Showa” II & “Reiwa” Debut Match: MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki defeated “Showa” II & “Reiwa” when MIKAMI pinned “Showa” II with the Heisei-Style School Boy (9:40).
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Taiji Ishimori, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Shuji Kondo, Ken Ohka & Mac Matsushita when Ishimori submitted Matsushita with the Bone Lock (11:31).
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuji Nagata, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe defeated Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa when Nagata submitted Takagi with the Arm Lock (17:07).

2025 came to a close with the final show of Super Japan, perhaps maybe ever. Except it turns out the sub-brand has a future after all, at least heading into 2026. It’s all thanks to Super Japan’s ace Yuji Nagata. First he led his team to victory in the main event. He fought fire with fire by using the crazy energy of Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe to combat the crazy team energy of Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Munenori Sawa. Nagata and Kasai spent just as much time dueling each other with their salute poses while Takagi and Abe brawled over at the Shinjuku FACE counter. Kasai pulled out a bundle of skewers and Kuroshio tried to physically stop him from using them. He failed and Kasai got to dig the skewers into Nagata’s head while Nagata held Takagi in the Arm Lock. That only made Nagata apply more pressure to the submission hold though and Takagi had to give up from the extra intensity his tag partner inadvertedly created.

After the match Takagi thanked everyone for the match and said his year long celebration of his 30th Anniversary in wrestling has finally come to an end. He told the others to show their appreciation to Nagata and the five of them all bowed to him. Nagata asked Takagi if this was really the end of Super Japan because after everything Takagi put him through during the project it shouldn’t end just like that. Takagi said he doesn’t have a venue booked for another show so there is nothing he can do about it. Nagata then revealed that he has Shinjuku FACE booked for 24th March and he’ll let Takagi use it for the next Super Japan date! Takagi accepted the offer so Super Japan can return next year! It will even have a familiar event name: “JUDGEMENT”. Takagi then asked Nagata to do the Nagata Dance with everyone in the ring so they can end the show on an even higher note.

For one night only The Sailor Boys reunited although none of them had any intentions of actually reliving the gimmick. Instead The Brahman Brothers interrupted the entrance song “Keep On Journey” so they could bring their usual deranged wrestling style to the table. Taiji Ishimori was willing to go along for the ride and join in the brawl against the opposing team of Toryumon/Dragon Gate linked wrestlers. Shuji Kondo had the power to fight back but a missed Lariat ended up hitting his partners Ken Ohka & Mac Matsushita by mistake instead. The Brahmans then beat up Matsushita with a traffic sign before Ishimori could make him give up to the Bone Lock. Ishimori also had black goo pouring out of his mouth while he was applying his finisher. After the match The Brahmans announced that The Sailor Boys are disbanding and will go back to being regular pro wrestlers. However they might reunite with Ishimori and team up again in twenty years time.

Back in their DDT days MIKAMI and Takashi Sasaki were often seen as rivals to each other. But given this is an alternate take to the early years of DDT, here in Super Japan they’ve been paired together as a tag team. They took on a revival of an old DDT gimmick called “Showa” with somebody claiming to be the second generation of the masked wrestler showing up with a second similar looking wrestler named “Reiwa” as his tag team partner. The DDT originals won out in the end with MIKAMI countering a Japanese Leg Roll Clutch from “Showa” II into a Heisei-Style School Boy for the three count.

Match #2 ended in a No Contest when Muscle Sakai and DJ Nira coaxed the referee Ishiguro into taking part in the action. At several points in the match the room would go dark and when the lights came back on, Sakai and Nira would swap positions. The spot ended up with Ishiguro unexpectedly finding himself on the top turnbuckle where he decided to do a Diving Cross Body onto the wrestlers and then stomp on them in the corner until the match was called off.

The Unofficial Extreme Champion, Ilusion Vs Kumadori, GanPro Invites Some Pals Over For New Year’s

December 5, 2025

DDT “RING FINALE 2025 ~EVERYONE IS THE STAR OF THE CURTAIN CALL~”, 21/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi Vs Daichi Sato & Rukiya
1. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, Demus & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Kazuki Hirata
2. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Shinya Aoki, Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai
3. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Akito Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku
4. Special Tag Match: Yuji Nagata & Sanshiro Takagi Vs HARASHIMA & Kaisei Takechi
5. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Yasu Urano
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Takeshi Masada

Some thievery as led to a confusing situation over the DDT Extreme Title. Earlier in the week Yasu Urano stole the title belt from To-y and then beat him in an unofficial match to declare himself the new champion. However the match and “title change” was not sanctioned by DDT so To-y remains the champion. The problem is To-y isn’t feeling like a champion right now because that loss to Urano still feels real to him. It doesn’t helpt that Urano is acting like the champ too and is willing to “defend” the belt against To-y, advising him to forget everything that has happened up to now and to take on a challenger’s mindset. For clarification, To-y is still the champ and if he wins here it will be the 6th successful defence of his reign (even though he wonders if his number of defences has been reset).

DDT is giving everyone the early Christmas treat of Minoru Suzuki fighting Jun Akiyama in a tag match.

DDT “HOLY FIGHT NIGHT 2025”, 24/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Kumadori

It’s taken a while for this match to happen. Ilusion Vs Kumadori was meant to take place back in July but a knee injury suffered by Kumadori cancelled it. The grudge between the two took some time to resurface but the last couple of weeks have sped it up to where the match can finally take place. Christmas Eve is the date for these two masked men to settle their differences one on one.

GANBARE☆PRO “BEFORE SUNRISE 2025”, 27/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Mizuki Watase, Shigehiro Irie, Munetatsu Nakamura & Sentaro Motoshima Vs Jun Kasai, Takuya Wada, Tyson Maeguchi & Shota Kawakami
2. Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Akira Shoji
3. YuuRI 5th Anniversary Match: YuuRI Vs Sareee
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

Two guest wrestlers have been added to the show. It looks like Akira Shoji will stick around in Ganbare☆Pro for more than just one match. He’ll be at Korakuen Hall to test out Shuichiro Katsumura’s grappling skills. Also the GanPro Vs FREEDOMS rivarly is relaxed for the holidays, allowing Jun Kasai take part in an 8-Man Tag match filled with GanPro associated wrestlers on both teams.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

Three returning guests have been announced for the show so far. They are Yuka Sakazaki, Sareee and Lei Ying Lee. At the moment Lee is the TNA Knockouts World Champion and is being promoted as such by Tokyo Joshi Pro. The title has been defended in TJPW once before in Las Vegas earlier this year so maybe Japan can be where it gets defended in the company for a second time.

FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN!!” Results

October 16, 2025

FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN!!”, 16/10/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
176 Fans (FREEDOMS Supporters: 58 Fans, GanPro Supporters: 118 Fans)

1. Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi defeated Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima when Libre pinned Motoshima with the Dragon Suplex (11:34).
2. Shuichiro Katsumura defeated GENTARO with the Triple Two 2 Lock (10:22).
3. Violento Jack defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Charro Negro (8:55).
4. Mammoth Sasaki, Daisuke Masaoka & Kenji Fukimoto defeated Keisuke Ishii, Takuya Wada & YuuRI when Sasaki pinned YuuRI with the 29 Years Old (13:17).
5. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase (w/ Nobita) defeated Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura when Manase pinned Sasaki with a Lariat (12:07).
6. Fluorescent Lighttube + Weapon Tag Death Match: Jun Kasai & Tomoya Hirata defeated Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase when Kasai pinned Ohka with the Cross-Arm Stimulation onto the Fluorescent Lighttubes (18:07).

A rivalry between Ganbare☆Pro and FREEDOMS has been brewing for a while now in a bid by both promotions to liven up the indies. The two sides agreed to hold an all out battle at Shin-Kiba 1st RING with the venue split in half for their supporters. GanPro overwhelmingly won the audience battle by drawing 118 of their own fans to the show while FREEDOMS could only draw in 58 fans. Takashi Sasaki’s excuse is most of the FREEDOMS fans were busy with their jobs while the GanPro fanbase have too much time on their hands. When it came to the match results, FREEDOMS ended up on the winners side with four of the six matches going their way. This isn’t the end of the rivalry though. Sasaki wants it to continue until one side completely gives up! Ken Ohka agreed and the two of them will come up with something in the future to keep this “GANDOM” series going.

The main event was chaotic enough with the usage of lighttubes and chairs as weapons but since it was the last match of the show, both sides went all out including the wrestlers at ring side who all joined in on their team’s train attacks. Ohka hit two Flame Spears on Jun Kasai but Tomoya Hirata stabbed him in the head with bamboo skewers. Mizuki Watase tried breaking up pinfalls to keep his team in the match but Ohka was eventually put away with the Cross-Arm Stimulation that smashed him through a bundle of lighttubes. Kasai said the GanPro team inspired him today and he also appreciated how enthusiastic the GanPro fans were too.

GanPro did get a big win in the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase brought along the GanPro staff member Nobita to be their second at ringside. He ended up getting bullied by Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura as they have been doing in the lead up to the show. Sugiura took his glasses and even emptied out a box of glasswear to try and Suplex Nobita onto. However Nobita was saved by the GanPro team and he got revenge by Body Slamming Sugiura onto the pile of glasses. Manase then got the surprise pin on Sasaki with a Lariat to win the match! Imanari said this is what happens when the bullied kid in class ends up training like crazy. He turns into a total killing machine! Meanwhile Sasaki and Manase both threw out the idea of having a singles match against each other to settle their differences. Manase wants the match to happen at Korakuen Hall.

YuuRI wasn’t as successful at her attempt of wrestling against the men. However although she lost Match #4 for her team after being pinned by Mammoth Sasaki, she earned everyone’s respect with her efforts. Sasaki begrudgingly shook her hand and raised it after the match. Things between Jun Masaoka and Keisuke Ishii was a bit more heated with the two of them butting heads before leaving the ring.

There was also respect earned between Violento Jack and Munetatsu Nakamura. Jack thought he was going to be wrestling some young brat but he ended up being impressed by Nakamura’s abilities. The current King Of FREEDOM World Champion used his submission finisher to make Nakamura give up and then gave him a fist bump when the dust had settled.

Shuichiro Katsumura requested GENTARO to be his opponent for the show because he considered the two to have something of a rivalry going on due to their wrestling styles. GENTARO planned on winning by pinfall while Katsumura focused on trying to submit him. It led to Katsumura countering GENTARO’s pinning cradle into a Triangle Choke that then switched into the Nagata Lock 3 for the win.

In the opening match, Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi pulled out a FREEDOMS flag and flaunted it in the ring to celebrate their victory. Igarashi said he could feel the fighting spirit coming from Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima so he wanted to overwhelm them with his own strength.

Battle Of Shin-Kiba, KING OF DRUNK, J-Rod Coming To TJPW, Super Japan Finale

October 15, 2025

FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN”, 16/10/2025

The type of death match for tomorrow’s FREEDOMS Vs Ganbare☆Pro main event has been decided. Lighttubes are the recommended item on the menu but other weapons will be featured too.

GanPro has a secret weapon up their sleeve for the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase will be accompanied by Nobita as their ringside attendant. Nobita is the nickname of Takahiro Nakayama, a GanPro staff member who was a pro wrestler for a very brief amount of time back in 2014. The FREEDOMS wrestlers had been bullying him around whenever they showed up at GanPro shows, unaware of his background. If Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura are not careful he might decide to start fighting back!

The 3 Way match between Yuki Iino, To-y and Yuki Ishida will have an extra rule banning the wrestlers from doing their trademark catchphrases and poses.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN VICTORY IN RYOGOKU”, 26/10/2025
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Next Generation Tournament ’25 – Final: Uta Takami Vs Winner Of Losers Bracket

Takami is in the driver’s seat because she will need to be beaten twice due to the double elimination format. Summer and Nanase cannot afford to lose at all for the rest of the tournament.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’25”, 09/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs J-Rod

The next wrestler from America has been chosen to go on tour with Tokyo Joshi Pro this November. J-Rod has around three years of experience since graduating from the NJPW Academy in America with Ohio Valley Wrestling being her current most regular promotion. The “Ultimate Athlete” will debut in TJPW on the 1st November show but the big match of her tour will be fighting either Miu Watanabe or Yuki Aino for the Princess Of Princess Title at November’s Korakuen show.

I don’t mind this trend of tag teams getting themselves in line for a future Princess Tag Team Titles shot while the champions still have other challengers to get through. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki have teamed on and off together this year but both are feeling left behind by other wrestlers from their class. The two are taking their team to the next level by challenging the winners of Ober Eats Vs Hot Shot for the titles.

SUPER JAPAN “NEVER MIND”, 29/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Tag Match: MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki Vs X & X
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa Vs Yuji Nagata, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe

The last Super Japan show of the year is being advertised as the season finale of year one. Sanshiro Takagi is so happy with how Yuji Nagata has turned out as his chosen ace that he wants to wrestle Nagata himself. He also wants to team with Munenori Sawa again and expected Nagata to get more plenty of people offering to team with him so Jun Kasai was brought in to even up the numbers. Nagata has both Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe wanting to join his side so the two teams are now set.

Super Japan serves as an alternate take of what DDT could have turned into if Takagi chose that name instead of Dramatic Dream Team back in 1997. In DDT, MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki were more like rivals than partners despite once holding the KO-D Tag Titles together back in 2002. So Takagi wants to see what it would be like if the two of them were a tag team from the beginning instead of opponents. MIKAMI & Sasaki are both curious to find out for themselves as well.
