Moeka Haruhi returns from her hiatus and she is immediately put in a random looking trio with Chika from Pro Wrestling Evolution and freelancer MASA☆TAKA. The match also has Kaori Yoneyama showing up on the other team.

DDT “BE AMBITIOUS ~AUTUMN BATTLE~”, 30/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Akito, Daichi Sato & Yuya Koroku Vs Soma Takao, Rukiya & Hinata Kasai
1. Danshoku Dieno Return Match: Danshoku Dieno, Antonio Honda & Kazuma Sumi Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata

7. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c/c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine

The full card for this month’s Korakuen Hall show includes the tag team F-SWAG making their first appearance in DDT together. Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox have been the unit’s tag team over in NOAH here and there this year. Not sure if this means Yuya Susumu will be showing up as well since it would be a little odd of he’s the odd man out.

We also have the match for Danshoku Dieno’s return from his health problems. That last time we saw him in the ring he claimed to have all of the toxic juices removed from his body so is he still carrying that same “beautiful” attitude he was saving for Daisuke Sasaki before that match got called off?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW X OCHA NORMA – OCHA PRO☆KORAKUEN”, 07/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ochanor Mask Vs X

One person who unfortunately won’t be at next month’s TJPW collaboration with OCHA NORMA is Shoko Nakajima. “Unforeseen circumstances” have made her unable to attend the show. In her place TJPW have booked a masked wrestler from Mexico named Ochanor Mask to make her Japanese debut. There are claims that she is the master of the “Ocha Libre” wrestling style. Fans are wondering if she happens to know the Teotleco and Osita, the two luchadoras who recently appeared in Stardom all of a sudden as Dos Locas de Mexico.

Tomorrow is a big day for D GENERATIONS because their next show is in Shinjuku FACE rather than the outdoor theater at Ueno Park. There’s also a few young New Japan wrestlers involved too.

GANBARE☆PRO “TBA”, 29/11/2025
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI

As shown in recent Ganbare☆Pro events, YuuRI does not want to be just confined to the Ganbare☆Joshi division. She thinks she is good enough to beat the BASARA team and bring the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles back home. She needs a tag partner though and lucky for her, Shuichiro Katsumura has her back. Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto aren’t feeling worried about them though.

It’s not official yet but Ken Ohka has been chosen to be Masaaki Mochizuki’s next opponent for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title after he begged to Michiyoshi Mishima for the opportunity. GanPro want the match to happen at this show but Dragon Gate also has an event going on in Okinawa the same day. Negotiations are under way to get Mochizuki booked for this show.

DDT “BE AMBITIOUS ~AUTUMN BATTLE~”, 30/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – Weapon Gamble Match: To-y (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi

3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Shinya Aoki
4. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c/c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine

An extra caveat of the Weapon Rumble is the weapons must be bought using only money that To-y and Sanshiro Takagi have won from gambling in the leadup to the match.

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

1. YuuRI 5th Anniversary Match: YuuRI Vs Sareee

It’s been five years of YuuRI but can she make it to six when Sareee is standing in her way?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’26”, 04/01/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Suzume

Ittenyon is getting something completely fresh for its headline match. As far as I know, Miu Watanabe and Suzume have only had two previous singles matches together and they were both in 2022. The next time they go one on one it will be the headline bout at Korakuen Hall with the Princess Of Princess Title on the line!


GANBARE☆PRO “SCHOOL OF ROCK 2025” Results

November 9, 2025

GANBARE☆PRO “SCHOOL OF ROCK 2025”, 09/11/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
202 Fans

1. Shota Kawakami defeated Sentaro Motoshima with the Fisherman Buster (9:53).
2. YuuRI & Sumika Yanagawa defeated Haruka Umesaki & Soy when YuuRI submitted Soy with a Spiral Dragon Sleeper (12:05).
3. Shuichiro Katsumura, Takuya Wada & Jonathan Johnson defeated Yumehito Imanari, Shinichiro Tominaga & Mizuki Watase when Johnson pinned Tominaga with a Jackknife Pin (11:26).
4. Keisuke Ishii defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Kneel Kick (11:53).
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) defeated Ken Ohka & Choun Shiryu by Referee Stoppage when Nakatsu used a Rear Naked Choke on Shiryu (18:52).
*V2 for Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto.
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) defeated Yuna Manase with the Shin Saikyou High Kick (19:57).
*V2 for Masaaki Mochizuki.

This was Yuna Manase’s second chance at becoming the first woman to win a Spirit Of Ganbare Championship. She is now also the second woman Masaaki Mochizuki ever had a singles match against, the first being Sakura Hirota twelve years ago. He wasn’t comfortable at first having to fight Manase but took her seriously when she went on the attack from the start of the match. Manase was able to kick out of the Twister but was pretty much out on her feet so Mochizuki finished her off with the Shin Saikyou High Kick (right leg instead of the left leg). He told her afterwards she doesn’t need to say anything about the match because everyone who came to see it understood it very well. He’s now starting to love wrestling in Ganbare☆Pro because of how fun it is and looks forward to facing his next challenger. He then helped walk Manase out of the ring and back to the locker room. Backstage Manase said she just had a championship match against Masaaki Mochizuki so she can absolutely call herself a pro wrestler and be proud of it.

At the end of the show Ken Ohka approached Michiyoshi Mishima and begged for the next Spirit Of Ganbare Title shot so he can do his part to protect GanPro. He also thinks as the founder of the company it would be fitting if he was the one to beat Mochizuki for the title. Mishima said if Mochizuki will agree to it, he will put the match together. When Mochizuki learned of the idea, he pointed out that Ohka couldn’t beat Shuichiro Katsumura in the previous No. 1 Contender match. But he accepts the challenge and is confident he will beat Ohka in five minutes. GanPro is trying to get the match booked for their 29th November show in Tokyo but they are aware that Dragon Gate also has a show taking place in Okinawa that day.

Ohka had a chance on this show to win the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles but it didn’t turn out that way in the end. Choun Shiryu did a big stunt dive from the top of a wall onto Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto but back in the ring Ohka accidentally hit him with the Flame Spear. Nakatsu took advantage and clamped a Rear Naked Choke onto Shiryu until the referee decided to stop the match. The BASARA team then found out who is next to challenge them. YuuRI came out and said she doesn’t want to be confined to the Ganbare☆Joshi division so she is challenging them to a title match! When it was pointed out that she doesn’t have a partner, Katsumura joined her side and said a tomboy like YuuRI needs a guardian like himself. The title match will go ahead on 29th November.

The reason why YuuRI made that challenge is because she is currently riding on a big confidence boost. That was caused by her announcement earlier in the show that she will be facing Sareee at Korakuen Hall on 27th December! The match will celebrate YuuRI’s 5th Anniversary in wrestling and she promises it won’t just be a dream match. She will use everything she has accumulated in the last five years together to beat Sareee!

Moeka Haruhi will return from her hiatus on the 29th November show.


All Rise Press Conference, Ohka Challenges For Union MAX Title

November 5, 2025

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

1. 4 Way Tag Match: Mizuki & Suzume Vs Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami Vs Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
2. Rika Tatsumi, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Ren Konatsu Vs Hyper Misao, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Mahiro Kiryu & Mifu Ashida
3. Hiroyo Matsumoto & Yuki Arai Vs Yuna Manase & Toga
4. MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Viva Van
5. International Princess Title: Arisu Endo (c) Vs Uta Takami
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs J-Rod

A press conference was held yesterday to promote the three championship matches taking place next week. It was a chance for Miu Watanabe and J-Rod to get to know each other better before they fight over the Princess Of Princess Title. J-Rod spoke about how impressed she is by Watanabe’s strength despite looking so small next to herself. But pro wrestling is not a fairy tale and J-Rod has been preparing for the match like a beast. Watanabe admitted she always feels nervous when she has to fight foreign wrestlers but she wants to become stronger so she can defend the title at next year’s Ittenyon show and then after that, Sumo Hall in March. She is also confident she can Giant Swing J-Rod because she was able to do it on the cardboard dummy she made last week. J-Rod thought she was just being cute at the time but if Watanabe thinks she really can do it then J-Rod dares her to try. Also while J-Rod has been taking her diet seriously to prepare for the match, Watanabe has been eating chocolate for breakfast to increase her own cuteness points.

The Princess Tag Team Titles match puts a focus on three wrestlers from the 2023 Class all trying to catch up to each other. Shino Suzuki was happy to see Wakana Uehara win the title but also felt frustrated seeing her classmate move ahead. She felt the same way when Toga recently got a title shot too because at that point Suzuki was feeling left out with nothing to show for. But HIMAWARI has been by her side as a tag partner and the day came when Bumping gRitters came to life and challenged Ober Eats for the titles. HIMAWARI challenged for the belts once before and even teamed with Uehara for that match, so it gets to her seeing Uehara move on and win the belt without her. Uehara considers her opponents to be important friends because they all started together but she doesn’t want to stay at their level or lose the titles to them. She’s going to swallow Bumping gRitters whole! Yuki Kamkifuku finds the whole talk about classmates a bit boring, like when people think it is fate if they find out they have the same birthday. She has no intention of losing to a tourist guide or a long haired woman. Suzuki doesn’t like the way Kamifuku calls her weak so she wants to make her bow in apology.

Uta Takami got Arisu Endo to talk about ice cream while building up the International Princess Title bout. Takami is feeling lucky because every day she’s been buying a popsicle and today there was only one left and it was a chocolate coffee flavored Papico which made her really happy. Endo likes eating cookies & cream Häagen-Dazs which doesn’t suprise Takami because it is a high end and expensive ice cream. Endo thought she would be able to beat Takami 100 times out of 100 but after their recent matches she’s starting to think there is a one in a thousand chance she could lose. She notices how despite Takami’s lack of experience, she belives in herself and even walked into this press conference with her head held high. Takami then said she will continue her run of good luck later today when she goes to get the last chocolate coffee Papico again.

BASARA “BASARA 292 ~UTAGE~”, 18/11/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Daichi Kazato & Yasu Urano Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino Vs Takeru Inoue & Tomoki Hatano
2. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga Vs SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita
3. Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA Vs Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami
4. Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Daiki Shimomura
5. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs Ken Ohka

One of the last glimmers of light from Union Pro is hoping to take the title he never got to fight for. Ken Ohka believes he should deserve to be the Union MAX Champion just because they both originally came from the same promotion. It’s up to Ryota Nakatsu to show Ohka that the championship belongs to BASARA and will stay there.


BASARA “BASARA 291 ~KOO~” Results

October 31, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 291 ~KOO~”, 31/10/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ken Ohka & Shota Kawakami defeated Takeru Inoue & Yasu Urano when Ohka pinned Inoue with the Flame Spear (11:35).
2. SAGAT, Minoru Fujita & Lil’ Kraken defeated Gouma Ryu, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Kraken pinned Ryu with the Hurricane Driver (9:13).
3. Grace Project Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Tomoya Hirata & Captain Grace defeated Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato & Daiki Shimomura when Hirata pinned Kazato with the Tower Hacker Bomb (9:24).
4. Hardcore Tag Match: Takumi Tsukamoto & Masashi Takeda defeated Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA when Tsukamoto pinned Sekine with the Zudon onto the Chairs (13:26).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda (c) defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Honda submitted Nakano with an Arm Bar (15:37).
*V2 for MJ2.
6. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with the V Slider (15:42).
*V4 for Ryota Nakatsu.

The big move Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi kept trying to use in the Union MAX Title bout was the Perfect Plex. It took him several attempts to pull it off against Ryota Nakatsu but when it finally hit it wasn’t enough to pin the champion. Nakatsu brought in a counter attack that took Hiroshi’s energy away. But rather than finish him immediately, Nakatsu gave Hiroshi one last chance to fight back. Hiroshi hit him with a Knuckle Punch but had nothing left to give so Nakatsu gave him the V Slider and pinned him for three. Nakatsu praised Hiroshi for his passion and leaving his feelings all out in the ring. When he started to talk about his next title defence, Ken Ohka entered the ring chanting the number “4642” over and over. Ohka told Nakatsu that number is how many days its been since he left Union Pro Wrestling back on 13th February, 2013! Not a day has gone by without Ohka remembering Union Pro and the only thing left around that represents it is the Union MAX Title. As a Union original that belt has Ohka’s name on it which means he deserves to have it! Nakatsu accepted his challenge for 18th November.

The Iron Fist Tag Team Titles remain with MJ2 after Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda defeated Aijin Tag. Mashimo and Masato Kamino took each other out so the finish came down to Honda against Takato Nakano. Honda countered a roll up into an Arm Bar and increased the pressure by clutching onto Nakano’s leg. Nakano wouldn’t give up but the referee had to stop the match in MJ2’s favour. After the match Kyu Mogami spoke on behalf of his stablemates and said the next Iron Fist Tag Titles defence will happen at a 2AW show in Yokohama Radiant Hall on 15th November. Daiki Shimomura & Lil’ Kraken ended up confronting MJ2 backstage later to challenge them at that show.

Gouma Ryu will be taking a break from wrestling for a few months to focus on other priorities in his career. Today was his last match in BASARA for the time being until he returns.

Next Gen Tournament Final, New Title Bouts, Malaysia Match Updates

October 20, 2025

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

1. Next Generation Tournament ’25 – Final: Uta Takami Vs Chika Nanase
2. Arisu Endo Vs Ren Konatsu
3. Mizuki Vs Toga
4. Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Hyper Misao & Raku
5. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami Vs Suzume & Pom Harajuku
6. Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer Vs HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Haru Kazashiro
7. Miu Watanabe & Yuki Aino Vs Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida

Due to the Double Elimination format, Uta Takami only needs to beat Chika Nanase once to win the Next Generation Tournament because Nanase has already lost once in the competition. Since Takami has been unbeaten for the whole tournament, Nanase will need to beat her twice in order to become the tournament winner. If Nanase does beat Takami here they will immediately start the grand final rematch to crown the winner.

Shoko Nakajima won’t be at the show because she will be wrestling in Mexico around the same time period.

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

1. MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs X
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs J-Rod

An American challenger now awaits Miu Watanabe. All she knows about J-Rod is she looks muscular in her pictures so Watanabe is expecting a power versus power battle over the belt.

Ober Eats next have HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki as the next challengers standing in their way. Yuki Kamifuku isn’t worried because she thinks her team with Wakana Uehara are leagues ahead of their opponents. So much so that she is naming other team Plain Long Hair.

Right as I am typing up this post, Tokyo Joshi Pro tweeted that Nakajima will defend the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title on this show. Her opponent will be revealed tomorrow.

GANBARE☆PRO “SCHOOL OF ROCK 2025”, 09/11/2025

After taking a few days to make a decision, Ganbare☆Pro have picked Yuna Manase to be Masaaki Mochizuki’s next challenger for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title.

GanPro have also put their trust in Ken Ohka & Choun Shiryu to try and beat the BASARA team for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles. The two of them have been friends for many, many years. Well before either Ryota Nakatsu or Takumi Tsukamoto even started in the business.

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.

Both Shoko Nakajima and HIMAWARI will be absent from the show because they will be wrestling each other in America for MLW that weekend. The MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title will be on the line too.

The Next Generation Tournament begins with the opening round. Losing here won’t eliminate anyone but it’s going to send those people down a harder path to reach the final.

An entire show of FREEDOMS Vs GanPro matches will take place with one side of the arena being filled with FREEDOMS fans and the other being filled with GanPro fans. The scenario throws Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase back into Death Match wrestling as the two will fight Jun Kasai & Tomoya Hirata with the weapon choices currently to be determined. Yuna Manase and YuuRI also get what they were promised by being put in matches against some of FREEDOMS’ hard hitters.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’25”, 18/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Arisu Endo (c) Vs Alice Crowley
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Yuna Manase & Toga
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Aino

It’s an all Alice showdown for Arisu Endo’s first defence of the International Princess Title! Her challenger is a young American wrestler by the name of Alice Crowley. While she has made one or two appearances in many independents across the USA, you will usually find her in Juggalo Championship Wrestling or OVW. She used to wrestle a lot in IWA Mid South too. “Big Al” as she is nicknamed also competed in the infamous Power Slap contest earlier this year. As part of her title shot, Crowley will also be wrestling on the 12th and 19th October Tokyo Joshi Pro shows.

DDT “WRESTLING HARVEST ~UNDER THE RED SKY~”, 19/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida

Let’s see if some Dosukoi spirit can take a tag team up past The Apex. The Harimao pair of Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida have stepped up to become the next challengers for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. For Higuchi it is a chance to win another championship so soon after losing the KO-D Openweight Title. Meanwhile Ishida has been picking up momentum, mostly from beating other wrestlers from the D GENERATION. Knocking down either Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya with the Flame Palm on route to a championship win will be a massive accomplishment for the little sumo.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025”, 03/11/2025
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Sanshiro Takagi Return Match – Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Shinya Aoki & Yuya Koroku Vs Tetsuya Endo, HAYATA & Junta Miyawaki
3. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Akito
4. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Kaisei Takechi Vs X & X
5. Dramatic Dream Match: Zack Sabre Jr. Vs Chris Brookes

The N1 Victory is now over and done with so the next big event on Tetsuya Endo’s calendar is his one night return to DDT. He’s bringing some NOAH friends with him because HAYATA & Junta Miyawaki are coming along too. I think this will actually be Miyawaki’s first time teaming with Endo. They were opponents for all of the previous times in NOAH I could find. The opposition has a lot of BURNING in it because both Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku are there. Shinya Aoki fills up the remaining space.

September 21, 2025

GANBARE☆PRO “TODA BOAT RACE SPECIAL MATCH”, 20/09/2025
Saitama Boat Race Toda
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Kyoko Inoue, Sumika Yanagawa & Misa Kagura defeated Yuna Manase, YuuRI & Banny Oikawa when Inoue pinned Oikawa with a Power Bomb (12:26).
2. Keisuke Ishii & Shota Kawakami defeated Mizuki Watase & Sentaro Motoshima when Kawakami pinned Motoshima with the Fisherman Suplex (9:44).

4. Tatsuhito Taikawa, Choun Shiryu & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Shinichiro Tominaga, PSYCHO & Takuya Wada when Taikawa pinned Tominaga with the Death Valley Bomb (8:03).
5. Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated Ken Ohka & Munetatsu Nakamura when Suzuki pinned Nakamura with the Gotch-Style Piledriver (15:00).

The matches were all held indoors for spectators to have somewhere to go to in between the boat races outside. Minoru Suzuki lost his temper in the main event after Munetatsu Nakamura provoked him. That led to Suzuki attacking him as well as Ken Ohka, his partner Shuichiro Katsumura and even the ringside second Sentaro Motoshima with chairs. Nakamura got close to beating Suzuki by giving him the Michinoku Driver II but Suzuki recovered and sent him down with the Gotch-Style Piledriver. Suzuki said afterwards that no matter where the ring is, he is the King Of Pro Wrestling and will handle it with ease. Katsumura tried to shake Suzuki’s hand while asking him to come back to Ganbare☆Pro but Suzuki felt provoked by that too. He asked if Katsumura wanted a fight and Katsumura said he does! However Suzuki decided to leave without saying if he will ever come back.
