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.

BASARA “BASARA 315 ~UTAGE~”, 11/09/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Isami Kodaka defeated Sentaro Motojima with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (9:12).

4. Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Yasu Urano defeated Takeru Inoue, Tomoki Hatano & Hajime when SAGAT pinned Inoue with the Lariat (15:07).
5. Ryota Nakatsu & Lil’ Kraken defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura when Nakatsu pinned Shimomura with the V Slider (13:15).

Pretty soon BASARA will be saying goodbye to Shinjuku FACE and after today Ryota Nakatsu feels like he has nothing left to say to Takumi Tsukamoto. The two of them are ready to fight each other for the Union MAX Title on 23rd September so they decided to shake each other’s hand after the match rather than talk up the title bout. Lil’ Kraken was allowed to close out the show instead and he talked about all of the wonderful footage he’s watched of the various wrestling shows that took place in Shinjuku FACE recently. They’re all great promotions but if you ask Kraken, BASARA is the best one! Backstage Nakatsu talked about being the first wrestler to walk down to the ring in Shinjuku FACE for the inaugural BASARA show. It moves him that over a decade later he became president of the company and will headline BASARA’s final show in the venue. But it will mean nothing to him if he cannot beat Tsukamoto for the MAX Title. Tsukamoto said he knows Nakatsu inside out and vice versa. The match will all come down to whether or not Tsukamoto can figure out how to beat Nakatsu in time. However the gameplan he has in mind is to just fight Nakatsu head on.

Aijin Tag have the advantage over the Death Volleyball Club going into the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match later this month. Both Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino agreed that their challengers were let down by their third partner Hajime today. They think he was nothing more than a benchwarmer when Takeru Inoue & Tomoki Hatano needed more than that to help them. Nakano wants Death Volleyball Club to remember they are in a wrestling ring but Kamino reminded him that the Club likes to treat the top rope like it is a volleyball net. Nakano doesn’t get that at all and does not want to lose to that team. Hateno said his team lost a set today but in volleyball losing a set does not mean you lost the match. He believes his teamwork with Inoue worked perfectly and next time they’re going to score 25 points to win the Iron Fist Tag Titles! But first they’re going to focus on pro wrestling training in the lead up to the match because they’ve already got the volleyball side of things sorted.

Before Match #3 could begin, SAGAT got on the microphone and pre-emptively accused Gouma Ryu of plotting to interfere in the action. Ryu admitted he would so SAGAT demanded he be added to the match proper. Banana Senga agreed to swap places with Ryu so he ended up becoming the manager who interfered in the match. The referee refused to count the pinfall for Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi after that so more changes were made. Senga agreed to wrestle in the match again but now Minoru Fujita complained about the two sides being misaligned. That somehow ended up with the match becoming Senga Vs SAGAT with everyone else acting as a manager for someone. SAGAT got fed up and demanded everyone be part of the match as a wrestler. Fujita was supposed to be on SAGAT’s team but he decided to join the other side so SAGAT was now fighting everybody else all by himself. Ryu tried to attack him with his law book but SAGAT redirected him into hitting Hiroshi by accident. SAGAT was then able to beat Ryu with the Gore Grind to win despite having the 4-on-1 disadvantage.


BASARA “BASARA 309 ~UTAGE~” Results

June 23, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 309 ~UTAGE~”, 23/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block A – Semi Final: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Daiki Shimomura with a Spinning Cradle (5:44).
2. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament Block B – Semi Final: Lil’ Kraken defeated FUMA with the Period. (8:03).
3. Isami Kodaka, SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Takeru Inoue when Kodaka pinned Kamino with a Modified Cradle (11:33).
4. 3 Vs 4 Vs 2 Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu, Daichi Kazato & Seiya Morohashi defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga& Gouma Ryu and Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano when Nakatsu submitted Ryu with an Armbar (7:25).
5. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Tournament – Final: Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Lil’ Kraken with the Dragon Kicker (13:08).

Out of all the BASARA wrestlers who want to be the next challenger for Shuji Ishikawa, it is Takumi Tsukamoto who is the last one standing. He used Daiki Shimomura’s Hurricanrana against him to get a three count and advance to the final. Meeting him there was Lil’ Kraken who scored an upset win over FUMA earlier in the show. Tsukamoto beat him down and almost won by countout but Kraken made a last gasp comeback. That wasn’t enough though and Tsukamoto put him away with the Dragon Kicker to win the tournament. He will now face Ishikawa for the Union MAX Title on 2nd August. He heard that Ishikawa wants to remain champion for ten years Tsukamoto will not allow that to happen because that would mean Ishikawa is champion until he’s 60!

Isami Kodaka got to beat his recent string of bad results in BASARA although he was in a tired heap by the end of his match. He got to pin Masato Kamino by dodging his Lariat and then cradling him for the three count. Kamino was pissed off to lose to someone that was pretty much beaten, so much so that Takato Nakano joked he was lying dead on the mat. Kodaka said there is nothing wrong with collapsing after a match and there is nothing wrong about getting old either. After all, he thought Takato & Kamino were both young and here they are already turned 30. He then announced he invited a friend to come to the 2nd August show and the two of them would like to fight Aijin Tag for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. Kodaka’s partner is going to be Yuko Miyamoto! Aijin Tag accepted the challenge because it will be their chance to surpass Yankee Two Kenju!

The 3 Way Trios match was changed into a irregular 3 Way Match because of Gouma Ryu. He decided to team with the other members of WizRYU instead of Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano. So the match ended up being between one team of three wrestlers, one team of four wrestlers and one team of two wrestlers.

The 2nd August show will be at Korakuen Hall and Ryota Nakatsu revealed he is trying to put together a special match with an outside wrestler. BASARA have already decided which wrestler they want to appear but have not made an offer to them yet. But according to Nakatsu it is somebody he has not wrestled many singles matches against and he would consider this person to be a rival of his.

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.

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

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.

BASARA “BASARA 308 ~UTAGE~”, 09/06/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

*V4 for Aijin Tag.

Aijin Tag are on fire at the moment. They are also fully prepared this time if any team out there tries to steal the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles from them. No new challengers stepped forward so Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino were free to celebrate with some energy drinks. Kamino decided to raise a toast for muscles because softness cannot overcome hardness. Nakano thinks he tried to make something up on the spot and that was all he could come up with. Backstage, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi apologized to Ayumu Honda for losing the match. Honda whispered something in his ear and according to Hiroshi, Honda said he must push himself hard until he is peeing blood.

The tournament semi finals on 23rd June will be Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Daiki Shimomura and FUMA Vs Lil’ Kraken. Tsukamoto beat Isami Kodaka in a short match but needed to hit his finisher twice to pin him. Daichi Kazato showed respect to FUMA because of their previous connection in Asian Kung Fu Revolution. He referred to FUMA by his surname Tsumaki and said he helped create the Daichi Kazato that exists today. Shimomura beat SAGAT with the Samson Clutch but SAGAT protested to the ref he kicked out before three. Shimomura calls it a messy win but only the result matters to him right now. Kraken said he’s been getting into shape and doing other things to prepare himself, although he considers luck may have played a part in him beating Ryota Nakatsu. Still, he won the match and is going to celebrate by visiting a famous hot spring in Utsunomiya.

Shuji Ishikawa was disappointed to see Kodaka get knocked out in the first round. Tsukamoto is also noticing that Kodaka has been losing his momentum lately and thinks he should be able to do more. Kodaka said he isn’t going to give up because he never gives up easily. In Ishikawa’s mind none of this matters because he decided he is going to hold onto the Union MAX Title for ten years.

Normally around this time of year BASARA would hold their annual Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament. This might still be it but they have not branded the competition as such so far. Instead Shuji Ishikawa wants the BASARA locker room to figure out for themselves who should get the next Union MAX Title shot. There are eight challengers, which isn’t enough to do a full blown Chouten playoff. Every match in the first round will have a 15 minute time limit. In the case of a draw happening, both wrestlers will be eliminated.

The time limit of the semi finals will be 20 minutes each. The double elimination rule for a draw will still be in effect for that round. The final will have no time limit in the hopes of guaranteeing a winner. Imagine the company going through all that trouble just to balls it up at the last hurdle.

6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated SAGAT with the Running Knee Lift (14:24).
*V4 for Shuji Ishikawa.

With another Union MAX Title defence under his belt, Shuji Ishikawa is finding more wrestlers coming forward to challenge him. SAGAT asked if he could get a rematch soon but Ishikawa told him it is way too soon for him to get another title match. Lil’ Kraken then declared himself the next challenger only for Isami Kodaka to knock him out mid-sentence. Ishikawa then found himself surrounded by five wrestlers: Daichi Kazato, Ryota Nakatsu, Daiki Shimomura, Takumi Tsukamoto and FUMA. Ishikawa joked about being popular lately and wishing the five men were five women instead. He told the group to decide among themselves who the next challenger will be because there are too many of them for him to take on all at once and he only wants to fight the strongest one. They all left to allow Ishikawa to end the show by himself. He talked about being able to hold the MAX Title he was never able to win when Union Pro existed. He will continue to beat strong challengers and continue being the champion for the next ten years until he turns 60!

Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi approached Aijin Tag after the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles claiming to have a message from Ayumu Honda. According to Hiroshi, Honda called Aijin Tag a third rate tag team who are not worthy of being champions. Judo is the national sport of Japan so Hiroshi & Honda want to challenge Aijin Tag for the tag titles on 9th June! Hiroshi added that the Iron Fist Tag Title belts would look better next to Honda’s black belt. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino both admitted to feeling banged up after fighting Fujita Pro Wrestling School. Their knees in particular were targeted by the challengers but they’re certain they will be in good shape for the next defence. Yasu Urano called the result a fluke and if the two teams fought each other another ten times, he and Minoru Fujita would win all of those ten matches.

Seiya Morohashi attacked FUMA during his entrance and they brawled around ringside. When they got into the ring and the match officially began, FUMA quickly caught Morohashi in an Armbar to win by submission. Morohashi demanded a rematch but only got it after he gave FUMA a dogeza style apology. Morohashi quickly lost his temper again but the rematch went ahead without controversy and FUMA made him tap to another Armbar. The two bowed to each other after the match and shook hands. They were also complimentary towards each other in their post-match interviews backstage until Morohashi handled FUMA’s deer hide jacket too hard.
