6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: Yuka Sakazaki defeated Miu Watanabe with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (19:36).
It took eight times for Yuka Sakazaki to finally win the Tokyo Princess Cup. She can now scratch that achievement off her list and make a claim to be arguably the strongest wrestler in Tokyo Joshi Pro! Her victory in a final brought Miu Watanabe’s summer campaign to surpass her seniors to a sad end. She did her best by hitting an Avalanche Tear Drop but she was too hurt to make the cover. Sakazaki later absorbed the Laserbeam strike and fired back with overwhelming Elbow Strikes. She grabbed onto Watanabe’s arm to keep her from falling down and pulled her into the Magical Merry-Go-Round to win the tournament.
After the match the two wrestlers hugged and Sakazaki said something into Watanabe’s ear. Watanabe left the ring to a loud applause while Sakazaki was presented with the brand new Princess Cup trophy from Naoya Yuzawa, the chief editor of Shukan Puroresu/Weekly Pro-Wrestling magazine. Sakazaki said she is feeling tired but also very happy to see everybody becoming more stronger. She doesn’t like that there is so much pink on the new trophy but she is very happy to have it. Her emotions have been shaken all tournament long especially when she saw both Shoko Nakajima and Miyu Yamashita get eliminated. She feels like she has become the big sister for the rest of TJPW because she wants to see everyone do well.
Sakazaki then called Nakajima into the ring. Winning the Princess Cup means she should get another shot at the Princess Of Princess Title. Nakajima said Sakazaki always gave her courage and pushed her back. It is alright by her to give Sakazaki another title match. The two agreed to have the match at Tokyo Dome City Hall for “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” on 9th October. Meanwhile Watanabe said backstage that no matter how many times she gets frustrated and no matter how many tears she sheds, she will work even harder to surpass her seniors and win next year’s tournament.
Nakajima had her hands full earlier in the show. She teamed up with Rika Tatsumi but even their powers combined struggled against Max The Impaler. The weakness they needed to exploit was Max’s unusual team-up with Yuki Aino. A misfired Lariat hit Aino and Max was then knocked away by Tatsumi’s Hip Attack. It took a lot just to keep Max away but Nakajima found enough time to isolate Aino and pin her with the Diving Senton. Nakajima said it was a scary match but she still enjoyed it. Tatsumi agreed and hopes Max comes back to Japan some day. The two of them now consider Max their friend! Aino also appreciated Max for coming over because they are really cool and inspiring.
The current Princess Tag Team Champions used today’s match to sharpen their skills before the next title defence. Reiwa AA Cannon went up against Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo. Together Saki Akai & Yuki Arai used double team moves on Endo while Noa kept getting in the way to cut off their momentum. Akai eventually got Noa out of the ring and hit a PK from across the apron to keep her away while Arai pinned Endo with the Finally.
After yesterday’s disappointing losses, Miyu Yamashita and Suzume both got to lighten up a bit by being thrown into a wacky 6-Woman Tag match with the likes of Raku, Haruna Neko and Pom Harajuku. There was also Mizuki there too to speed up the action. Harajuku wanted to do some high flying too but she was a sitting duck for Yamashita’s High Kick. One Attitude Adjustment later and Yamashita’s team were the winners.
Upcoming Princess Tag Title challengers Toyo Mates had their own preparations to sort out by taking on the masked duo of Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami. One thing was Yuki Kamifuku did not want to sit through Misao’s usual opening speech. She took the microphone and gave it to Mahiro Kiryu so she could give a cool speech instead. Kiryu ended up getting attacked by Misao to start the match. Toyo Mates eventually eliminated Misao with the Big Boot/Spinebuster combo and Kiryu then hit a proper Spinebuster on Toribami to get the win.
The opening match saw Nao Kakuta beat Moka Miyamoto with a rough and tough performance in the ring. She was able to break out of the Rashomon and pin her opponent with the Shiden Kai.
The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) had a big surprise for everyone after they finished their musical performance at the beginning of the show. After months of auditioning about 100 applicants, they are now adding a brand new member to the group! The new member is named Shino. She is a former bus guide who was born in Shizuoka on 15th July, 1998. The first time she attended a pro wrestling show was the 3rd May TJPW event in Korakuen Hall. Shoko Nakajima left a huge impression on her that day so her goal is to reach Nakajima’s level. Her favourite idol is Sakura Oda from Morning Musume. When Shino finished introducing herself to the audience, Hikari Noa asked her if she would like to do a death match.

Tokyo Korakuen Hall

8. Tokyo Princess Cup – Semi Final: Miu Watanabe defeated Miyu Yamashita with the Tear Drop (18:23).
This year’s Tokyo Princess Cup is being built around the young generation wanting to surpass their seniors. Miu Watanabe has been leading the charge and it has taken her all the way to the final! She defeated Miyu Yamashita in a year where it looked like the Tokyo Joshi Pro ace had finally figured out how to win the tournament. Watanabe showed great toughness by taking a German Suplex and a High Kick only to duck the Skull Kick and drop Yamashita with the Tear Drop for the three count. Rika Tatsumi rushed over to Watanabe after the match to congratulate her and Yamashita shook her hand. Backstage Yamashita said when she looked into Watanabe’s eyes she realized how intense the last four years they spent working together was. She was overwhelmed by both her own strength as well as Watanabe’s. She is extremely disappointed to lose but also sees how passionate the younger wrestlers are becoming. That there is now a generational battle going on in TJPW means the promotion has built up a lot of history and that shows how much it has grown.
The other semi final saw Yuka Sakazaki eliminate Suzume, ending the younger wrestler’s Cinderella run in the tournament. Suzume’s plan was to go for quick covers and high flying moves. But the big momentum shift of the match happened when Sakazaki gave her the Tea Time. From there she hit an impactful Sliding Lariat before pinning her with the Magical Merry-Go-Round. Suzume heard Sakazaki’s previous comments about her not being a threat. But Suzume thinks she was a dangerous opponent for Sakazaki after all. When they were in the ring, Suzume forgot about the tournament because she couldn’t stand losing to the person in front of her.
Tomorrow’s final has come down to Watanabe against Sakazaki. Watanabe told Sakazaki she wants to surpass her and win the tournament. Sakazaki said she cannot lose because she’s been competing in the Princess Cup longer than Watanabe has wrestled and never won it. She will see her tomorrow and the two gave each other a fist bump. It took Watanabe four years to finally catch up to Yamashita and if she wins tomorrow it means she has beaten TJPW’s top three wrestlers in the same tournament (Sakazaki, Yamashita and Shoko Nakajima). Sakazaki has called this year’s Princess Cup a grueling competition because the younger wrestlers are showing a lot of guts. She hopes it will turn the Tokyo Princess Cup into the can’t miss tournament of the summer!
The next challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles have been decided after Mahiro Kiryu pinned Yuki Arai in a 6-Woman Tag Match. Yuki Kamifuku & Haruna Neko dealt with Saki Akai & Moka Miyamoto so Kiryu could pin Arai with the Spinebuster. She politely asked Reiwa AA Cannon for a title shot even though she lost to them before and also lost to Arai in the Princess Cup. Akai accepted the challenge. Kiryu then apologized to Kamifuku for not getting her permission to ask for the title match. Kamifuku admitted she is surprised by Kiryu’s actions but hoped this day would come because she wants Kiryu to be more assertive. Kiryu later revealed she dyed her hair “iron blue” today to match the Toyo University colours. It shows how much she wants Toyo Mates to succeed.
Nobody was more terrified of Max The Impaler than Pom Harajuku. She had the unfortunate task of being Max’s first opponent in Japan and Max did not even wait for the bell to ring to get started. Harajuku was able to leave the ring and tried to run away but she was persuaded by Yuki Aino and Raku to continue the match. Her Shin Kicks worked a little bit but Max ended up winning with a Short Range Lariat, shouting “bye bye” to Harajuku before hitting the move.
The 3 Way Match tried to play up a potential love triangle between the trio involved. Hyper Misao brought out a picture of Tatsumi and admitted she has feelings for her. Tatsumi rejected her with a kick because she wanted to be with Mizuki instead. Mizuki stood by Tatsumi’s side but only so she had the numbers advantage. She betrayed Tatsumi when the opportunity presented itself. Misao brought out a spray can to blind her opponents. Tatsumi grabbed it but accidentally sprayed both Mizuki and the referee by mistake. But since the ref was temporarily blinded, Tatsumi hit Misao with the can without penalty and then pinned her with the Twist Of Fate.
Mei Suruga’s return to TJPW pitted her against a familiar opponent. She and Arisu Endo previously fought each other at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22” last month. Suruga won the match here by making Endo submit to the Gateau Invisible. Endo hesitated to shake her hand after the match so Suruga gave her a heavy pat on the head.
A stretcher was used during Match #2 when Free WiFi tried to carry Raku with it out of the arena. However Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta couldn’t decide on which direction to go so they dropped Raku onto the floor instead. They got back on the same page when Noa stopped Raku from doing the Doctor Yellow to Kakuta. Then Kakuta pinned Raku with the Shiden Kai.
The reigning Princess Of Princess Champion found herself wrestling in the opening match after getting eliminated midway through the Princess Cup. She took on Kaya Toribami, who she’s been friends with since before Toribami became a pro wrestler. A lot of the match was kept on the mat with submission holds but picked up the pace until Nakajima hit the 619 and then the Northern Lights Suplex for the victory.

335 Fans

2. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Harajuku with La Magistral Cradle (8:28).

6. Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Miyu Yamashita & Nao Kakuta when Kamifuku pinned Kakuta with the Diving Famouser (11:54).
Today’s show was a homecoming for Yuki Kamifuku in Fujisawa City. When the show began she presented the mayor of Fujisawa City with a donation made out of a portion of the event’s earnings. The donation will go towards local scholarships. The main event itself was Kamifuku forming the MakiYuki Happy team with Maki Itoh to take on Miyu Yamashita & Nao Kakuta. Kamifuku welcomed her opponents to her town and when she gave them Eye Pokes she told them it was “The Fujisawa Way”. MakiYuki Happy ended up shining brightly in the end. Kamifuku got rid of Yamashita with the Famouser and then pinned Kakuta with the Diving Famouser.
She thanked the audience for coming to see Tokyo Joshi Pro because she loves the company as much as she loves her hometown. When she was a student she had difficulty finding a hobby to be passionate about. When she joined TJPW she found her dreams and one by one made them come true. This show was the biggest one and she is happy to come back here with her friends and colleagues from Tokyo.
Upcoming Tokyo Princess Cup opponents Yuka Sakazaki and Suzume faced off in a tag match on the undercard. After the match Sakazaki said in her backstage interview that she is not feeling any danger when she wrestles against Suzume. She is looking forward to their semi final match but right now she doesn’t feel threatened at all.
The 3 Way Match was summer themed. Hyper Misao and Pom Harajuku came out wearing straw hats, swimming goggles and playing with a beach ball. The referee even wore a tie dye shirt over his regular uniform. Only Mahiro Kiryu showed up looking normal and got mad over being left out.

1. Hikari Noa, Raku & Suzume defeated Miyu Yamashita, Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto when Noa pinned Miyamoto with the Blizzard Suplex (10:33).

6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Nao Kakuta defeated Yuki Aino with the Shiden Kai (10:39).
7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Rika Tatsumi defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the Missile Hip (12:57).
The winners of today’s Tokyo Princess Cup matches have a little bit of an easier ride in the bracket compared to the rest of the wrestlers in Round 1. Everyone who won today advanced straight into the Quarter Finals taking place on 31st July. Rika Tatsumi closed out the show by beating Yuki Kamifuku, proclaiming it to be her first win on the road to finally winning the tournament. Her failed title challenges on the big stage has only made her more obsessive and is the reason she keeps getting back on her feet time after time. Kamifuku has taken something positive from the match though. She used to fear Tatsumi’s Hip Attacks and would run away from them. This time she became brave enough to stand up to the move despite still losing to it. Tatsumi’s next round opponent will be the winner of Pom Harajuku Vs Suzume taking place on 23rd July.
Yesterday’s 10-Woman Tag Match gave Nao Kakuta all the preparation she needed to figure out Yuki Aino. She learned she has less patience than Aino, who is often calm and thoughtful in the ring. A calm mind is what helped Kakuta beat her today because she didn’t panic when Aino put her in the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire. That gave her time to break out of the hold and land a Cross-Arm DDT to her opponent. The Shiden Kai afterwards resulted in Kakuta going through to the Quarter Final. She will face the winner of Miyu Yamashita Vs Raku taking place tomorrow. Whoever Kakuta face she said she can either climb that wall, smash her way through it or slip around it to the other side.
Yuka Sakazaki is trying to get over losing the Princess Tag Team Titles by aiming to win the Princess Cup. She is using this tournament to get rid of her frustration and Kaya Toribami just happened to be the first person in her way. Toribami knew she was in for a tough match and worked hard to make Sakazaki use her stronger moves. That way Toribami could get a chance to show her own true potential even for just a little bit. Sakazaki will now wait for Hikari Noa Vs Yuki Arai to happen tomorrow to see who she faces next.
This summer could become a summer of important change if Miu Watanabe has anything to say about it. She thinks it is time for her generation to surpass their seniors. It begins with Watanabe herself finding a new way to swing her opponents around. She blocked Arisu Endo’s Waterwheel Drop and turned it into a Giant Swing from a Gutwrench lift! Endo tried fighting back from that but was put away with the Tear Drop. Watanabe won’t know who she faces next until 23rd July when Shoko Nakajima Vs Mizuki takes place.
In one of the non-tournament matches Hyper Misao faked having a left arm injury from the day before while Nakajima acted concerned for her partner. Mizuki didn’t believe her because she saw the match and remembers that Misao’s left arm was never targeted. However during the match Mizuki joined in with Mahiro Kiryu for the Apology Double Knee Drop and both said sorry to Misao for attacking her while she is injured. When Misao made her comeback she shouted she was suddenly feeling better. Nakajima got the hot tag and in the end pinned Kiryu to win.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 16/07/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
262 Fans
1. Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino, Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku, Nao Kakuta & Arisu Endo when Tatsumi pinned Endo with the Twist Of Fate (12:29).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Suzume and Kaya Toribami when Mizuki submitted Toribami with the Face Lock (7:57).
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Pom Harajuku defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Pom de Justice (6:48).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Yuki Arai defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Finally (8:00).
5. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima defeated Haruna Neko with the Unmanned Local Train Hold (11:15).
6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Miyu Yamashita defeated Hyper Misao with the Crash Rabbit Heat (15:47).
The first batch of Tokyo Princess Cup opening round matches were held today in Ryogoku KFC Hall. The main event was between two women who both felt bad luck following them into the tournament. Miyu Yamashita always has unlucky results in the Princess Cup while Hyper Misao felt unlucky having to go against her right away. Yamashita cheated by tying Yamashita’s feet together and spraying her in the face whenever the opportunity to get away with it presented itself. Yamashita soon freed herself and forced her opponent into a wrestling match. Misao got a nearfall with the Hypami Returns but Yamashita fired back with the Attitude Adjustment. She then dusted off the Crash Rabbit Heat to win. Yamashita admitted to feeling bullish but today’s win against an opponent like Misao is big for her. Using the Crash Rabbit Heat again may be the key to finally break through her tournament curse. Misao said she will use what she learned from fighting Yamashita and apply it to her future opponents.
It’s no surprise that Shoko Nakajima is off to a winning start by beating Haruna Neko. She expected Neko to give it her all and was prepared for it. The results was a solid effort from Nakajima without giving too much away for the next round. Neko said she is frustrated she couldn’t get anywhere against Nakajima. However she hopes she can use the frustration as food for growth from now on.
The good times are continuing for Yuki Arai. Her win today over Mahiro Kiryu means she is already doing better than her first Princess Cup appearance from last year. She promised to keep trying her best to get results is singles matches to go along with her recent success as a tag team wrestler. It was her first match since winning the Princess Tag Team Titles and she admitted she hasn’t figured out the best way to wear her title belt yet. But she is happy to show it off to everyone. Kiryu thought she was going to be the better fighter than Arai and fought with the intention of challenging for the Tag Titles down the line. She underestimated how tenacious Arai is and regrets not finishing her off in the match when she had the chance.
Pom Harajuku attempted to mimic Karate to try and intimidate Moka Miyamoto at the start of their match. She was in danger when Miyamoto applied the Rashomon but a rope break saved her. Harajuku was then able to hit the Pom de Justice to win and advance to Round 2. Harajuku said she is going to blast through the competition. Miyamoto is disappointed to get eliminated in the first round again.
Today’s winners all advance to Round 2 of the bracket. The matches for that round are split off into two separate shows. The 18th July show has Yamashita against Raku and Arai against Hikari Noa. The 23rd July show is where Nakajima will face Mizuki and Harajuku will take on Suzume.

Not only has Antonio Honda proved he deserves to be in the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match, it is now the main event too!
An extra rule is added to the DDT Extreme Title match after Danshoku Dieno warned that something bad could happen to the special referee Sanshiro Takagi and prevent him from doing his job. Akito and Hisaya Imabayashi are taking the threat seriously and came up with a backup plan. If Takagi cannot do his refereeing duties during the match for any reason then anyone who puts on the referee shirt will get to act as one! Imabayashi also announced the show will not air live on Wrestle Universe because of this match. If the match gets too out of control it will be cut from the VOD! Another thing to note about this match is where the inspiration for the match came from. According to the DDT website, the 3 Vs 1 Handicap stipulation is a call back to Antonio Inoki Vs Rusher Kimura, Animal Hamaguchi & Isamu Teranishi series from 1982 and 1983.
Yukio Naya is out of action with a fever and is off this weekend’s shows. Soma Takao replaces him on tomorrow’s card.

A Tokyo Joshi Pro press conference was held in Shibuya today for the 9th annual Tokyo Princess Cup. All 20 participants were in attendance to take part in a lottery that filled out the bracket. Each of them then commented on their matches afterward.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 16/07/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1A: Shoko Nakajima Vs Haruna Neko
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1C: Miyu Yamashita Vs Hyper Misao
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1E: Mahiro Kiryu Vs Yuki Arai
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1G: Pom Harajuku Vs Moka Miyamoto
Shoko Nakajima enters the tournament as one of the strongest favorites. She currently holds the Princess Of Princess Title and has a great history with this tournament, winning it once and reaching the final 5 times. However she thinks this year’s field is completely unpredictable so she is going to fight carefully in every match. She is a similar size to her opponent Haruna Neko and for that reason wants Neko to follow her lead. Neko is a bit scared to face Nakajima in the 1st Round but take the match seriously and give it her all to win.
While Nakajima has great luck in the Princess Cup, it’s the complete opposite for Miyu Yamashita. The ace of TJPW has never won the Princess Cup, has never reached the final and in some years was eliminated in the 1st Round. In fact the woman who knocked her out from Round 1 in 2016 is Hyper Misao and they meet again in the same place! Yamashita has since gotten her own back by eliminating Misao from the 2020 tournament but she cannot hide her displeasure over getting an unlucky draw. Misao even drew lucky No. 7 to get matched with her! That now gives her the confidence to beat Yamashita with a perfect performance score of 100%.
Yuki Arai wants to make up for getting eliminated in the 1st Round last year. She is riding high from winning the Princess Tag Team Titles this past weekend. Mahiro Kiryu notices that and thinks it is a good thing for herself. She has a chance to beat somebody really popular and raise her own stock!
Both Pom Harajuku and Moka Miyamoto are happy to be matched against each other. Harajuku is feeling good and will put that kind of energy into her match. Miyamoto is motivated to win because she wants to surpass her seniors.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 17/07/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1B: Arisu Endo Vs Miu Watanabe
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1D: Nao Kakuta Vs Yuki Aino
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1F: Kaya Toribami Vs Yuka Sakazaki
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1H: Yuki Kamifuku Vs Rika Tatsumi
Arisu Endo and Miu Watanabe are also having opposite thoughts over their luck in the draw. Endo doesn’t feel lucky to fight Watanabe but promises to do her best. Watanabe however praises Endo for the growth she showed at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22”. It makes Watanabe cautious not to lose her own focus when they face off.
Last year Nao Kakuta fought Yuki Aino to a 7 minute draw. It is a result that Aino does not want to repeat because she is full of energy right now. She is also looking ahead because the winner of this will face either a monster like Yamashita, a scary person like Misao or the third option even scarier than her! Kakuta isn’t worried about that. She said she is determined to win no matter who her opponent is.
Yuka Sakazaki sees a lot of potential in Kaya Toribami and is looking forward to playing with her. Toribami knows she is in for a tough fight. Even if she can’t win she wants to have a good match to keep her spirits up.
After this weekend there is nothing for Rika Tatsumi to be afraid of anymore. Even though she lost the Princess Title match she thinks she made a super amount of progress coming out of it. It won’t be easy but she will spend the summer aiming to win the Princess Cup so she can get another Princess Title shot. Yuki Kamifuku hates competing in tournaments. But she is about to reach the 5th anniversary of her debut match this August and she wants to do her best for that reason.

Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2B: Winner Of Match 1C Vs Raku
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2C: Winner Of Match 1E Vs Hikari Noa
The winner of Yamashita Vs Misao faces Raku in Round 2, the scariest one of all! Raku said no matter which of them she faces, she will confuse them to win. The match schedule for Round 2 is a little bit out of bracket order because Yamashita will be wrestling in America around the same time. TJPW made sure the 2nd Round match she can qualify for is not clashing with her travel schedule.
Hikari Noa takes on either Kiryu or Arai. Noa thinks every year is going to be her year to win the Princess Cup so she is getting impatient over not making it come true. Her motivation this time is the chance to face Sakazaki further down the bracket.

Shinjuku FACE
1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2A: Winner Of Match 1B Vs Mizuki
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2D: Winner Of Match 1G Vs Suzume
Although Mizuki no longer has the Tag Titles, she still has plenty of dreams she wants to achieve as a singles wrestler. The two time Princess Cup winner is excited by the idea of facing Nakajima so soon in their block of the playoff.
Suzume has two very different potential opponents. She has never wrestled Harajuku one on one before and won’t be able to predict what Harajuku can do to her. She also recognises how strong Miyamoto is becoming and thinks she will be a scary opponent for her. However the thought of fighting and beating even stronger opponents like Kamifuku or Tatsumi in the next round after is something Suzume really wants to do.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22”, 09/07/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium
1,130 Fans
1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Juria Nagano with the Rashomon (4:58).
2. Aja Kong, Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Hyper Misao, Nao Kakuta, Haruna Neko & Kaya Toribami when Aino pinned Toribami with the Venus DDT (12:28).

9. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) defeated Rika Tatsumi with the Diving Senton (19:23).
*V4 for Shoko Nakajima.
Not even a White Dragon going crazy can stop the Big Kaiju right now. In front of over a thousand fans allowed to cheer, Shoko Nakajima defeated Rika Tatsumi to defend the Princess Of Princess Title. Tatsumi promised to be more determined than ever to win and proved it by doing the Missile Hip from the top rope to Nakajima outside the ring. However her attempt to lean back with the Dragon Sleeper for leverage backfired when Nakajima rolled out to free herself from the move. The champion turned the tables from there, used a Double Arm DDT and pinned Tatsumi with the Diving Senton. She called her opponent strong after the match and looks forward to meeting her down the road again. Nakajima then thanked the fans for their cheers because it gives the wrestlers more energy than we think. She praised the roster for being great and wants Tokyo Joshi Pro to grow even more. While Tatsumi is upset over losing, she feels strange because it hasn’t broken her heart. Instead it made her love pro wrestling again.
The supernova rise of Yuki Arai continues with the “genius girl” winning her first championship in TJPW! Her team with Saki Akai was the force that finally broke The Magical Sugar Rabbits and ended their Princess Tag Team Titles reign. At first Arai looked to be out of her depth against the champions but once she got to show off her teamwork with Akai it turned out they had MagiRabi well scouted. Together they blocked one of the Toy Story double team attacks and Arai threw Mizuki off the top rope with the Full Nelson Buster. Akai was also too tall for Yuka Sakazaki to give the Magical Merry-Go-Round to. Mizuki tried to intervene until she was struck in the back of the head with Arai’s Finally kick. Arai went for the move a second time and Sakazaki took the bullet after pushing Mizuki out of harm’s way. Reiwa AA Cannon then took inspiration from the one achievement they both share by performing a Double Rookie Award to Mizuki. Akai then pinned Mizuki for the title change while Arai held Sakazaki back.
Akai admits that they wouldn’t have been able to beat MagiRabi 99 times out of 100. It was Arai’s luck that made today the 1 time they were going to win. Akai thought she was going to be leading the team but her tag partner supported her more than she realised. Now they have the Princess Tag Titles there will be many teams chasing after them. Akai tells Arai this is the hard part because they now have to run further ahead of everyone else. Arai said she feels the weight of carrying the title belt because she is also carrying the history of the previous champions. She wants to be somebody who won’t be ashamed of holding this title. She also can’t wait to show the belt to all the fans of SKE48.
In the days leading up to the show, Thunder Rosa sent a message to TJPW saying if Miyu Yamashita could beat her today then she will give her a AEW Women’s Title shot back in America. The new stakes added more to Rosa’s anticipated return to TJPW for the first time in two and a half years. Yamashita hit the Skull Kick but she couldn’t get the three count with a rope break. She then went for the Attitude Adjustment but Rosa countered it into a Cradle. Yamashita suddenly reversed the Cradle and got a three count out of nowhere to win the match! Rosa said she now knows what to do because she isn’t going to let the AEW Women’s Title be taken away from her like the International Princess Title was. Whenever Yamashita is back in America, she knows where to find Rosa to get her title match. Yamashita said having the home field advantage was why she won today. She would like to have the rematch against Rosa in America but wants to fight that match for herself, not as a representative for TJPW.
England’s Alex Windsor had some bad luck travelling to Japan because she lost her gear and luggage on the way over. However she must be all smiles after today because she beat Maki Itoh to become the new International Princess Champion! Itoh fought big by using an Avalanche DDT but missed the Flying Big Head. Windsor fought back with her own big moves by using a Liger Bomb and another Power Bomb as a counter. She then put Itoh away with a Modified Fisherman Buster called the GTF to win the title. Windsor says she is taking over the world and will take the IP Title where ever she wants to. Meanwhile a sad Itoh is left asking herself why is she always so weak? She has an overseas tour coming up in August so she knows she has to fight more different wrestlers from around the world. She is also upset she couldn’t live up to the expectations of the fans who could now cheer for her today.
The first match for MeiBee Surprise was a success for Mei Suruga & Suzume. They were paired against two opponents who are very close to them. Suruga and Riho have a lot of history together while Suzume regularly teams with Arisu Endo as Daisy Monkey. The match came down to Suzume against Endo. Suzume came out on top after hitting the Ring A Bell on her friend. Riho said she was excited to have the match because it was her first time wrestling in Japan for 9 months. Suzume described the match as a red string getting all tangled up because she has attachments to everyone involved. She also said she will continue fighting to surpass Suruga. You’d think Suruga would see that as a threat but she just laughed it off.
Previous opponents Hikaru Shida & Hikari Noa were now teaming together on today’s show. Together they brushed off Toyo Mates even when they attempted to fight fire with fire. Mahiro Kiryu stopped Noa from using a chair but then tried using the same chair on Shida. That was blocked and Shida pinned her with the Arawashi Driver. Yuki Kamifuku gave encouragement to Kiryu afterwards, telling her life goes by fast and can be over in the blink of an eye. They can become strong people who can take a beating together. Noa said she had a lot of time to think about her previous match with Shida. She enjoyed today’s match more than anything and was happy to use weapons with Shida again. Shida thinks she made a good start in her quest to wreck havoc in TJPW with her appearances so far. She doesn’t know who she will face next but is looking forward to coming back here.
It doesn’t matter if her opponent was changed on short notice. Somebody was going to get a Giant Swing from Miu Watanabe! That somebody happened to be Ryo Mizunami. Watanabe had to work hard for it though because her veteran opponent put her through the wringer with Chops, slams and Lariats. Mizunami gained the upper hand with a Spear and never let go of the momentum, finishing off Watanabe with the Hot Limit. She praised Watanabe, saying she was blown away by her opponent’s power. It doesn’t matter if she is an idol with less experience in the ring, when Watanabe enters through those ropes she is a pro wrestler! Mizunami also appreciated the warm reception she got from the TJPW fans. Watanabe also gave credit to the fans for pushing her on. Even when she was hurt, the fans calling her name made her want to do her best. She achieved her goal to give Mizunami the Giant Swing. Her ultimate goal is to do that to Aja Kong!
Speaking of Kong, she was happy to be back in TJPW. Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku in particular were surprised to see Kong give Raku a big hug during their entrance all together. Hyper Misao also welcomed Kong back and was nice to her. But that was because Misao wanted to swap teams and be on Kong’s side instead of being her opponent. Misao later sprayed Kong’s face but its effects didn’t last long. Kong wiped out Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko with a Double Lariat, giving Aino the space to beat Kaya Toribami with the Venus DDT. Misao later said she would like to fight Kong again. Her tag partners are not as enthusiastic over the idea.
The opening match was special for Moka Miyamoto and Juria Nagano because it was the first time they got to experience wrestling in front of a cheering crowd. Nagano used a new combination of kicks but still went back to the Brazilian Kick late in the match. Miyamoto eventually got her in the Rashomon to earn the submission victory. She was glad to win because she knows she would lose to Nagano in a Karate bout. But this is pro wrestling and Miyamoto is more experienced than her here.
There will be a collaboration between TJPW and Idolmaster Cinderella Girls. Two of the characters in the game Akane Hino & Yuko Hori will receive costumes based on the ring gear Yuki Arai and Maki Itoh wore for their IP Title match from “GRAND PRINCESS ’22”. In return, Arai and Itoh will soon receive real life costumes based on Hino & Hori to wear for portraits and other related merchandise.
“GO GIRL 3” will be held at Korakuen Hall on 28th August. It is a show for only women in the audience and admission will be free. There will also be a brand new logo for Tokyo Joshi Pro unveiled at the show.
“The Non-Binary Nightmare” Max The Impaler will make their TJPW debut on the 13th & 14th August Korakuen Hall shows. If there is anything you need to know about Max it this. They hate idols!

The 9th annual Tokyo Princess Cup will consist of 20 wrestlers competing in 5 rounds across 7 shows. Last year’s winner Maki Itoh will not be entering the tournament because she has a booking with GCW in America on the same day as the final. Itoh’s priority with Tokyo Joshi Pro right now is to wrestle on behalf of the company overseas. Juria Nagano will also not be entering the tournament due to a busy schedule. Miyu Yamashita is entering the tournament while she has an American booking scheduled for 23rd July. For that reason the match schedule for Round 2 will not be decided until the brackets are filled up. That way if Yamashita has a Round 2 match it will not clash with her Garden State Pro booking. The semi-final pairings will be determined by a lottery.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ADDITIONAL ATTACK ’22”, 19/06/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
525 Fans

*V5 for the Magical Sugar Rabbits.
One week ago Shoko Nakajima successfully defended the Princess Of Princess Title against Yuka Sakazaki. Today Sakazaki evened the score by successfully defending the Princess Tag Team Titles with Mizuki against Nakajima & Hyper Misao. The challengers Kyoraku Kyomei pulled every trick they could think of to try and win the belts. They tried spraying foam at them, tried crashing bikes into them and even tried out-wrestling them. But The Magical Sugar Rabbits kept their cool and Sakazaki ended up pinning Misao with the Magical Merry-Go-Round.
Mizuki is pleased to reach her 5th defence in this reign. Even though the championships are remaining in the status quo, she thinks the value of the Tag Titles have increased which only makes her want to defend it more and more. Yuki Arai then entered the ring and threw out a challenge. She wants herself and Saki Akai to be the next opponents for MagiRabi! Arai has only been wrestling for a year but within that time she got to see so many cool things from Sakazaki, Mizuki & Akai up close. It drives her to become stronger and challenge for the titles.
Rika Tatsumi is building up her momentum for her Princess Title shot at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22” next month. She & Suzume defeated Maki Itoh & Hikari Noa in the semi-main event. Tatsumi was able to cut off Noa with the Hip Attack, followed up with the Twist Of Fate and won with the Missile Hip. Noa & Itoh argued afterwards when Noa admitted to lying about wanting to team with Itoh. Tatsumi & Suzume however described their own teamwork as perfect. Today is the second time this month they teamed up and they are currently unbeaten together.
Reiwa AA Cannon can point to their win over Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto as their qualification to be the No. 1 Contenders for the Tag Titles. Akai hit Yamashita with the Quetzalcoatl to take her out of the running. Miyamoto still put up a fight on her own but Arai eventually got the better of her and struck the Finally to win. Akai had to leave the building shortly afterwards for another booking but gave Arai her blessing to to go ahead and challenge MagiRabi at the end of the show.
A big challenge lay ahead for Juria Nagano when she took on Miu Watanabe. She put up a good fight but the expected result happened when Watanabe lifted her up into the Canadian Backbreaker and held on until Nagano gave up. Watanabe later found out she is going to be Willow Nightingale’s debut opponent on 9th July. It will be Watanabe’s first ever singles match against a foreign wrestler. It makes her nervous but she will do her best to introduce herself to Nightingale with power and a smile.
The 3 Way Match turned into a bit of a love triangle with Yuki Aino and Pom Harajuku fighting over Raku’s affection. It was caused when Aino decided to join forces with Raku instead of Harajuku for the 2-on-1 advantage. Harajuku fought back by grabbing a homemade photobook of Raku pictures and using it to lure Aino away from the real Raku. Aino took control of the match until Harajuku came back trying to steal pins. Raku and Harajuku collided together and Aino dropped Harajuku with the Venus DDT for the win.
Toyo University Tag teamed up for the first time in a while to take on Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko. It was a worthwhile reunion because they won with flying colours. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu landed a Big Boot/Spinebuster combo on Kakuta. Kamifuku then went on to pin Neko with the Famouser. Backstage Kamifuku talked about how exciting Tokyo Joshi Pro has been lately. She thinks it is time for her & Kiryu to update their tag team name. She told Kiryu to think of a new name on the spot. Kiryu came up with Toyo Mates because she wanted to keep Toyo in the name.
It took over a year but Kaya Toribami has finally won her first singles match! At first it looked like Arisu Endo had her beaten with a Camel Clutch. But when she readjusted the hold to pull Toribami away from the ropes, a series of Cradles began and ended with Toribami getting the three count. Toribami said she is really happy to finally win under her own power and without relying on teammates. She wants to fight more on an even footing against her seniors. Endo is disappointed to be the first person Toribami has beaten. She learned the lesson that she lost because she was not careful.
Miyu Yamashita is getting a major opponent at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 9th July. She will take on Thunder Rosa from AEW! It will be Rosa’s first match in TJPW since January 2020 when she won the International Princess Title from Itoh. She wasn’t able to return because of the covid pandemic and eventually vacated the title. Yamashita is really looking forward to facing the current AEW Women’s Champion because they haven’t wrestled each other before.
