March 6, 2022

GANBARE☆PRO “MERCURY RISING 2022”, 06/03/2022
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
105 Fans

1. Nippon Ganbare Union To Become AAAW Tag Team Champions: Yuna Manase & YuuRI defeated Cherry & Sayaka when Manase pinned Sayaka with the Suzuki Dynamic (9:28).
2. Ganpro Mixed Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Moeka Haruhi defeated Yumehito Imanari & HARUKAZE when Haruhi pinned HARUKAZE with the Foot Stomp (10:50).
3. Tiger & Tiger Vs Power Of Nobu: Kouki Iwasaki & Nobuhiro Shimatani defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Mizuki Watase when Shimatani pinned Katsumura with a Jackknife Pin (17:44).
4. Special Single Match – Wrestle Drunker Vs Punch Drunker: Keisuke Ishii defeated Tyson Maeguchi with the Throwaway Tiger Suplex (9:20).
5. Takaiwa Army Vs Ganpro Full-Scale Battle: Shota, Soma Takao & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa, 5th Black Tiger & Kenya Maeda when Tominaga pinned Maeda with the Moonsault Press (14:50).

A new challenger has stepped forth for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. The “amateur” himself Shinichiro Tominaga picked up the win in the main event and threw out the challenge to Tatsuhito Takaiwa. The match will be the Strongest Super Dragon against the Strongest Amateur! Takaiwa wants to raise the title’s prestige to match those from the IWGP and GHC brands so it should not be fought for by amateurs. However he accepted Tominaga’s challenge in the hopes that Tominaga will improve and fight him with full determination. The title match will take place on 26th March at Shin-Kiba 1st RING.

Both Keisuke Ishii and Tyson Maeguchi are buzzing after their match against each other. Whether it’s as a tag team or as opponents, Ishii wants to continue wrestling with the ex-kickboxer. Maeguchi would prefer they stay as opponents so they can have more exciting matches against each other.

Ken Ohka has picked a fight with ChocoPro! Last week he made an unexpected appearance at one of their shows challenging Baliyan Akki for the Super Asia Title and left him laying with the Spear Of Fire. Akki showed up at Ganbare☆Pro today to confront Ohka over his actions. He said that person isn’t the hungry Ken Ohka he knew when he wrestled for Ganpro years ago. If that person doesn’t show up at Ichigaya Chocolate Square on 12th March then he won’t have a chance to win the title. Ohka knows the deal. He is going to ChocoPro on his own with no backup so he cannot mess up this opportunity! The two got into a fight and Mizuki Watase broke them up. He told Ohka afterwards he is defending Ganpro’s honour in this fight so he must not lose.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION 2022” Results

February 27, 2022

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION 2022”, 27/02/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
319 Fans

1. Katsumura-gun Vs Hitodenashi BLUES: Shuichiro Katsumura & Tsuyoshi Okada defeated Nobuhiro Shimatani & Tyson Maeguchi when Katsumura submitted Shimatani with a Triangle Choke (10:04).
2. Ganjo Special Tag Match: Moeka Haruhi & Maya Yukihi defeated Yuna Manase & YuuRI when Yukihi submitted YuuRI with the Whiteout (13:49).
3. Ganpro’s Famous Hardcore Mixed Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & Akane Fujita defeated Mizuki Watase & HARUKAZE when Fujita pinned HARUKAZE with the Mikan de Pon onto the Ladder (15:30).
4. Unleash The Curse Of The Great Prophecy!: Yumehito Imanari defeated The Great Sasuke with a Lariat (15:50).
5. BAD COMMUNICATION 2022 Special Bout: Ken Ohka, Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated Shota, Soma Takao & Shinichiro Tominaga when Ohka pinned Tominaga with the Fire Spear (12:38).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Tatsuhito Takaiwa (c) defeated Kouki Iwasaki with the Avalanche Death Valley Bomb (23:02).
*V2 for Tatsuhito Takaiwa.

A hot topic in Japanese wrestling right now is how hard the old guard are fighting to stay in the spotlight. It’s happening in Ganbare☆Pro too where Tatsuhito Takaiwa has a tight grip on the new Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. He successfully defended the championship against Kouki Iwasaki in the main event of Korakuen Hall after a hard fought battle. Any hope Ganpro had of their “young general” bringing the belt back home failed to materialize after the Avalanche Death Valley Bomb put him away. Takaiwa called the match the toughest he’s had in years because he is not good against kickers. Iwasaki agreed, describing the champion as a man who crawled up from Hell. Takaiwa is being a good spirit despite being somewhat of an outsider. He made a promise to help Ganpro grow bigger while he is their champion and welcomes anyone to come challenge him. He is willing to have a rematch against Iwasaki but he also wants to learn more about the rest of the roster for potential opponents.

The trio of Ken Ohka, Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie were too strong from ROMANCE DAWN & Shinichiro Tominaga to sail through. Irie smashed through Soma Takao with the Traffic Accident while Ishii took Shota out of play. That left Tominaga on his own ducking and diving all of his opponent’s big moves. He dodged the Beast Bomber and Kneel Kick but Ohka finally caught him with the Flame Spear to get the win.

In December 2015 The Great Sasuke gave Yumehito Imanari a “Great Prophecy” predicting he would have a breakout year in 2016. Nothing has happened since then and Imanari puts the blame on Sasuke for giving him a false blessing. That is what led to their singles match today. Sasuke, being the nutjob he is, did a Senton Bomb to the floor and missed. He was able to keep fighting until Imanari beat him with a Lariat. A tearful Imanari told Sasuke he still believes in the prophecy because it drives him to do his best. Sasuke gave an excuse that his prophecies sometimes have a time lag so Imanari’s one will definitely come true this year!

The Mixed Tag Match brought violence on an absurd level with some of the bizarre weapons being used. Mizuki Watase wore a tiger paw glove covered in barbed wire, HARUKAZE carried a garbage bag filled with empty plastic bottles, Akane Fujita had a baseball bat covered in thumbtacks and Shunma Katsumata had a bad with toy blocks stuck to it. Other weapons used included chairs, a ladder, an acupressure foot mat, steel cans and concrete blocks. Katsumata & Fujita kept accusing each other of stealing their own weapon ideas but had to get along out of necessity to win the match. Katsumata told Akane they keep winning together but they should stop before Sanshiro Takagi decides to make them team up again. Akane said that’s his problem and she will team with whoever the company offers to her. Watase & HARUKAZE enjoyed doing the match and like the idea of becoming a Hardcore Manzai tag team.

The Ganbare☆Joshi division was put on display in Match #2. YuuRI was put through the wringer by Moeka Haruhi & Maya Yukihi so Yuna Manase used her own size and power to spark a comeback. YuuRI also got her second wind but it couldn’t last against Yukihi. After Haruhi got Manase out of the ring, Yukihi stretched and pulled YuuRI in the Whiteout until she gave up.

In the opening match Shuichiro Katsumura & Tsuyoshi Okada joined forces to beat Nobuhiro Shimatani & Tyson Maeguchi. It was a Power Bomb from Shimatani that was suddenly countered into a Triangle Choke from Katsumura that led to that result.

2022 is going to be a big year schedule wise for Ganpro. There will be three more Korakuen shows this year on 3rd May, 13th August and 27th December. Pocchari Joshi will also return for its third show on 26th April. But that’s not all. Ganpro are making their biggest gamble yet to become a major pro wrestling promotion. On 10th July they are going to run Ota Ward Gymnasium! When Ganpro began in 2013 Ohka only had 150,000 yen and Nanhai Ichigaya Memorial Clinic (now known as Ichigaya Chocolate Square) as a venue. He likes venues like that and Itabashi Green Hall but believes the time has come to grow bigger and become more major. That is why Ganpro is running Korakuen four times a year and also going to Ota Ward. He wants to keep the momentum going so one day Ganpro will reach Sumo Hall and the Tokyo Dome! He also said if Ganpro works hard and Japan works hard they can create a booming economy together!

This Week’s Shows Hit By More Changes, Ganpro In English, 25th Anniversary Main Event Gets A Sponsorship

February 21, 2022

More last minute changes this time in BASARA. First Takato Nakano tested positive for covid and second Masato Kamino is a close contact. Both of them are off tomorrow’s show and the first three matches have all been changed around.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2022 WINTER”, 23/02/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

Due to how unreliable everything is at the moment, Tokyo Joshi Pro are not advertising any matches in advance for their show on Wednesday. They still promise to put forth the best show they can with whoever is available.

DDT “ULTIMATE TAG LEAGUE 2022 IN FUKUSHIMA!!”, 23/02/2022
Will Fukushima

0. Ultimate Tag League 2022 – A Block: Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya (4) defeated Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani (2) by Forfeit.
1. Kazusada Higuchi Vs Yuki Ishida
2. Pheromones Vs DISASTER BOX!: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno & Yuki “Sexy” Iino Vs Toru Owashi & Naomi Yoshimura
3. Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Yuji Hino & Akito
4. Chris Brookes Vs Yukio Naya
5. Fukushima Specialty Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Gorgeous Matsuno
6. BURNING! Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yusuke Okada Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & MAO

A Block

1. Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama (6)
2. Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno (4)
-. Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya (4)
4. Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani (2)
5. Shuji Kondo & Kazuki Hirata (0)

Here’s the updates for DDT that caused the show above to change more matches. The PCR results for Konosuke Takeshita came back negative. However the illness he does have was diagnosed as a stomach bug and he is not fit to compete on Wednesday. Toui Kojima also tested negative but is still showing flu symptoms so he is off the show too.

Hideki Okatani is identified as a close contact so he cannot be at the show either. That means Eruption must forfeit their Ultimate Tag League match against Yuji Hino & Yukio Naya and eliminates them from the running for 1st place in their block. Okatani is expected to be back for the Tag League finale this Sunday if he doesn’t test positive before then. The lesson here boys and girls is do not run a tournament during a pandemic.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION 2022”, 27/02/2022

GANBARE☆PRO “MERCURY RISING 2022”, 06/03/2022
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Special Single Match – Wrestle Drunker Vs Punch Drunker: Keisuke Ishii Vs Tyson Maeguchi

The spirit Tyson Maeguchi shows in the ring has caught Keisuke Ishii’s attention. Maeguchi’s switch from kickboxing to pro wrestling has not brought much success so far, at least that is how it looks whenever he is in Ganpro. He still has a lot to learn and puro nerd Ishii might be the mentor he is looking for.

GANBARE☆PRO “YUMEHITO IMANARI PRODUCE ~GANBARE PRIME 2021~” Results

January 10, 2022

GANBARE☆PRO “YUMEHITO IMANARI PRODUCE ~GANBARE PRIME 2021~”, 10/01/2022
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
109 Fans

1. Hardcore Mixed Tag 1 DAY Tournament – Round 1: Shigehiro Irie & Itsuki Aoki defeated Yumehito Imanari & Miss Mongol when Irie pinned Imanari with a Turnback Backslide Pin (7:08).
2. Hardcore Mixed Tag 1 DAY Tournament – Round 1: Shota & Asuka defeated Mizuki Watase & Cherry when Asuka pinned Watase with the Moonsault Press (10:19).
3. Pocchari Joshi Pro Wrestling TRIGGER 1st: Yuna Manase defeated Totoro Satsuki with the Lariat (8:03).
4. Dreamer’s Bridge ~Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Vs HOT JAPAN~: Yuya Aoki, Andy Wu & Tsugutaka Sato defeated Keisuke Ishii, Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki when Aoki pinned Tominaga with the Kesagiri Chop (21:24).
5. A Clinical Trial Match Between Men With Painted Faces: SAGAT defeated Hajime with the Goregrind (8:48). (Special Referee: The Great Yume)
6. Hardcore Mixed Tag 1 DAY Tournament – Final: Shigehiro Irie & Itsuki Aoki defeated Shota & Asuka when Irie pinned Shota with an Avalanche Samoan Drop onto the Chair (14:06).

The 6th and last Ganbare☆Pro show in three days was a chaotic affair all put together by Yumehito Imanari. His show was built around a Hardcore Mixed Tag Tournament, one with so many hot matches that it would become a must-watch video on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. Unfortunately for Imanari he was eliminated from his own tournament in the very first match. He & Miss Mongol fell to Shigehiro Irie & Itsuki Aoki. Then the Weekend Lovers of Shota & Asuka went over Mizuki Watase & Cherry. The final was the craziest match of the lot and ended with Irie giving Shota a top rope Samoan Drop onto chairs. Despite Imanari’s lack of success in the ring, he was still proud with how the show went. Ganpro may be small but he knows it can go all the way to the top!

The match between SAGAT and Hajime became so intense it needed a special referee to watch over it. Imanari came out as The Great Yume, knocked out Daisuke Kiso with an uppercut and took over as the ref!

The Ganpro and HOT JAPAN teams got into a war of words after their match and started brawling in the ring. Imanari was one of the wrestlers trying to pull them apart but Keisuke Ishii gave him a Fisherman Buster for his troubles. HOT JAPAN were confused enough from seeing Ishii attack his own ally that they calmed down and stopped fighting.

GANBARE☆PRO “MINORITY REPORT 2022” Results

January 8, 2022

GANBARE☆PRO “MINORITY REPORT 2022”, 08/01/2022
Kitazawa Town Hall
101 Fans

1. PocchaJo Vs ChocoPro Full Scale Battle!: Baliyan Akki & Yuna Mizumori defeated Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase when Mizumori pinned Manase with the Supergirl (10:18).
2. Hatsuyume Special Tag Match: Moeka Haruhi & Ayame Sasamura defeated HARUKAZE & Ann Cham when Haruhi pinned HARUKAZE with the Diving Foot Stomp (12:29).
3. Ganpro New Year Battle 2022: Shota, Soma Takao & Taison Maeguchi defeated Shuichiro Katsumura, Shigehiro Irie & Nobuhiro Shimatani when Takao pinned Shimatani with the Official Endless Waltz (12:14).
4. New Year Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii defeated Mizuki Watase with the High Angle Double Arm DDT (14:15).
5. Takaiwa Army Vs Ganpro Full Scale Battle!: Ken Ohka, Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa, 5th Black Tiger & Kenya Maeda when Ohka pinned Maeda with the Fire Spear (13:54).

The final show of today’s Ganbare☆Pro tripleheader saw Ken Ohka lead his team to battle against Tatsuhito Takaiwa and his army. A low from the 5th Black Tiger to Ohka gave Takaiwa the opening to hit the Death Valley Bomb. But Ohka recovered and hit the Fire Spear to both Takaiwa and then Kenya Maeda while Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki held everyone else back to win the match.

Afterwards Ohka approached Shinjiro Otani and asked him for advice before the Monday’s Spirit Of Ganbare Title match. Otani slapped him across the face to fire him up and said he’s seen Takaiwa cross the line many times. Ohka has to take him seriously in order to win the title from him. Ohka took his words to heart and told everyone to expect him to win the championship and bring it to Korakuen Hall next month! Takaiwa said he is looking forward to the match because Ohka has become more challenging and charismatic since their last singles match.

Keisuke Ishii gave Mizuki Watase a big performance to show he means business. He gave Watase a Fisherman Suplex from the entrance ramp to the floor during the match! Those who know Ishii’s love for King’s Road wrestling will understand how much the ramp spot means to him.

Ganpro Double Tripleheader In January

December 1, 2021

The new year for Ganbare☆Pro begins with two tripleheader shows within days of each other. The first day takes place in Kitazawa Town Hall on 8th January. Shinjiro Otani knows full well there is another big wrestling show is happening that day but he believes in the power of pro wrestling and he believes this tripleheader will be a success. The second tripleheader takes place two days later in Itabashi Green Hall. Each show promises to be individual from each other while all conveying the power of Ganpro!

Kitazawa Town Hall

1. Independent Women’s Bout: Ayame Sasamura Vs YuuRI
2. This Is Indie Wrestling Summit! Special 6-Man Tag Match: Takumi Tsukamoto, MAO & Baliyan Akki Vs TORU, Jun Tonsho & Tatsuya Hanami

Shota has always wanted to do a wrestling summit combining the Japanese and American wrestling scenes. The show he gets to produce here is much smaller in scale but he is still calling it the Indie Wrestling Summit. Shota thinks independent wrestling in this day and age isn’t about company size, roster numbers or skill levels. It’s whether or not the people involved have the spirit of the indies. Shota is using his 13 years of experience to gather wrestlers with this spirit and show them off at the highest level.

Soma Takao will be on the show. Shota doesn’t have a match yet so ROMANCE DAWN could face a team from the indies.

2. I Like The Rain: Moeka Haruhi, Makoto & Cherry Vs Yuna Manase, Rina Yamashita & Tsubasa Kuragaki

Also producing a show is Moeka Haruhi. She wondered what she could do because she is always smiling, eating good food and laughing. She enjoys life so much even when it rains. Her show will prepare a lot of happiness and she hopes fans will leave with their bellies full of happiness.

Shuichiro Katsumura will be on the show. Maybe we will get a special reunion performance from THE HALFEE?
