8. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi defeated Yuka Sakazaki (c) by Referee Stoppage with a Figure 4 Leg Lock (19:22).
*Yuka Sakazaki fails in V5. Rika Tatsumi becomes the 8th Princess Of Princess Champion!

The White Dragon seizes the white crown! Rika Tatsumi was the only active wrestler from year one of Tokyo Joshi Pro to have never won the Princess Of Princess Title. Today she finally became the champion by beating the dominant Yuka Sakazaki. The White Dragon Sleeper was countered into a Cradle nearfall that almost led to Tatsumi’s demise. But fortune was on her side when she rolled out of the way of the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro. Sakazaki hurt her legs on the landing so Tatsumi used a series of Dragon Screws to set up a Figure 4 Leg Lock. Sakazaki tried to escape but ended up back in the hold and eventually fainted. Daisuke Kiso ruled the match in favour of Tatsumi, making her the new champion!

When Sakazaki recovered she shook Tatsumi’s hand and hugged her. Tatsumi got on the microphone and talked about all the times she challenged for the title and failed. There is a lot going on in the world but she hopes Tokyo Joshi can be a source of hope for everyone just like it is for her. She wants to defend the belt until the day she dies! Miu Watanabe congratulated her Daydream partner and then challenged her for the title. She grew so much from teaming with Tatsumi. This year she wants to surpass her. Tatsumi is happy that Watanabe is her first challenger and she wants the match to happen on the 11th February Korakuen Hall show. Backstage, Tatsumi repeated her goal to defend the belt until she dies. Except she can’t die because dragons are immortal. She’ll live for 100 years and even if she does end up retiring, it will be as the champion. Even then she will continue defending the belt for a century!

The Bakuretsu Sisters defeated Toyo University Tag in their first Princess Tag Team Titles defence. Yuki Aino blocked Yuki Kamifuku’s Fame Asser and held her up for Nodoka Tenma to complete the Bakuretsu Bulldog. Mahiro Kiryu tried to give Tenma the Spinebuster but it was blocked and turned into a Fall Away Slam. Tenma then hit the Killswitch for the pin. The champions were asked if it is more difficult defending the titles than it was winning them? Tenma wants to keep trying and find new ways to challenge herself. Aino said attacks are the best defence.

Coming up with a new move didn’t change a thing for Maki Itoh’s singles record against Miyu Yamashita. She locked in the Itoh Royal after countering the Crash Rabbit Heat but this time Yamashita kicked out of it. Itoh went for the Itoh Deluxe but Yamashita used Headbutts to avoid the move. Itoh Headbutted her back and got knocked down with a High Kick in return. Itoh gave Yamashita the middle finger when she stood back up so she got knocked out with the Skull Kick. Yamashita stuck out her fist to Itoh after the match. Everyone expected Itoh to stick out her middle finger again but she bumped fists instead. Yamashita said she doesn’t know what will happen this year but she would like to wrestle overseas as soon as possible if it is allowed.

To the surprise of no one, NEO Biishiki-gun continues to look down on their opponents. They had Sena Shiori beaten with the Tarte Tatin but Hikari Noa broke the pin. She tried to turn the match around until Sakisama got rid of her with an Apron PK. Mei Saint-Michel then trapped Shiori in the Saint-Michel submission hold to tap her out. Sakisama called today’s win a beautiful victory. Saint-Michel spoke about the Chinese zodiac and told her master this year is the year of the ox. Sakisama doesn’t care because the world is all about her. Saint-Michel then told her she found a restaurant that specializes in cow meat that they should try. It’s called Yoshinoya! Sakisama never heard of it but requested a reservation right away.

Raku convinced Aja Kong to join in the Goodnight Express. That’s the most important thing to know about this match. But give it up to their opponents, they all tried to step up to Kong. Watanabe attempted the Canadian Backbreaker but couldn’t get her up. Kong grabbed her metal can and hit both Watanabe & Nao Kakuta with it. Mirai Maiumi though blocked Kong’s attack and took her down with a Lariat. Mizuki got rid of Maiumi with a Diving Body Attack to the outside but no one was there to stop Watanabe pinning Raku with the Tear Drop.

One year ago, Shoko Nakajima beat Hyper Misao in a match where the loser had to change their name for one month. Revenge is sweet! In the rematch both women were supposed to be connected together with a red and white rope. That proved to be difficult so they tried to wrestle around it. 100 capsules were attached to the top ropes with 10 of them containing prizes. The first person to find two of the prizes will win. The fight degenerated into a ringside brawl, a tug of war, a kaiju toy fight and then just a scramble to find the capsule prizes. They kept finding empty capsule until they both got one a piece. Nakajima went for the 619 but Misao dodged it and tied up her opponent’s arms and legs with the rope. With Misao unable to move, Misao kept opening the remaining capsules until she finally found her second prize to win the match. Misao will announce Nakajima’s new name at the next show. Nakajima tried to protest the result because the rope kept breaking on them. The result stands. Nakajima hopes her new name will be something like Shin Shoko Nakajima instead of something ridiculous.

Yuna Manase stepped in to replace Marika Kobashi on short notice when Kobashi tested positive for the Coronavirus and was pulled from the show on New Year’s Day. Manase was able to take charge and win the match for her and Moka Miyamoto. After her time away, Manase did notice some growth from her opponents. She understands Pom Harajuku has come up with new ways to sneak her kicks on opponents. And Haruna Neko is on the offensive more than ever. Miyamoto was happy to be on the winning side at the start of the year. She will use this as motivation to win her first match by herself.

The debut match for Arisu Endo saw her put Suzume in a Camel Clutch. Suzume used the ropes to give Endo a Facebuster and then hit the Ring A Bell for the victory. Endo said she was nervous before the match but once she stood in the ring she enjoyed being there. She repeated her goal to become energetic and strong like Reika Saiki.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “2020 FINAL ROUND ~I HOPE THERE ARE LOTS OF HAPPY AND FUN THINGS TO DO NEXT YEAR~” Results

December 26, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “2020 FINAL ROUND ~I HOPE THERE ARE LOTS OF HAPPY AND FUN THINGS TO DO NEXT YEAR~”, 26/12/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Marika Kobashi defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Front Neck Lock (5:04).
2. Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori defeated Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Uranage (7:44).
3. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Raku & Suzume when Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:58).
4. Miu Watanabe & Mirai Maiumi defeted Mizuki & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku with the Tear Drop (10:26).
5. Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu & Maki Itoh (2) defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Miyu Yamashita (1).
5a. Nodoka Tenma pinned Mahiro Kiryu with the Killswitch (6:28).
5b. Maki Itoh pinned Miyu Yamashita with the Itoh Royal (5:26).
5c. Rika Tatsumi pinned Nodoka Tenma with the Missile Hips (6:03).

Today was the final Tokyo Joshi Pro show of 2020. The big finale was a 2 out of 3 falls 8-Woman Tag Match. On one side was the Princess Of Princess Champion, the Princess Tag Team Champions and the woman who has been with TJPW since day one. On the other side was their Korakuen Hall opponents including the International Princess Champion. In the first fall Maki Itoh immediately called out Miyu Yamashita to start the match with her. The Bakuretsu Sisters took care of Toyo University Tag when Yuki Aino Side Suplexed Yuki Kamifuku and Nodoka Tenma pinned Mahiro Kiryu with the Killswitch to win the fall.

In the 2nd fall, Rika Tatsumi got the hot tag to swing momentum her team’s way. The match went back to Yamashita versus Itoh. Yamashita went for the Crash Rabbit Heat but Itoh countered it into a Crab Hold. Yamashita tried rolling out of it until Itoh crossed her legs in a Cloverleaf position. But instead of going for the Itoh Deluxe, she instead used a Jackknife to pin Yamashita for the three count! The Cloverleaf Jackknife has now been named the Itoh Royal.

The final fall saw Yuka Sakazaki jump in to face Tatsumi. She avoided the White Dragon Sleeper and countered the Twist Of Fate into a Northern Lights Bomb before tagging out to Tenma. Tatsumi got the better of Tenma after all the wrestlers got involved in a scramble. The Toyo University Tag used a Big Boot/Spinebuster combo on Tenma and Tatsumi pinned her with the Missile Hips to win the deciding fall.

Tatsumi credited everyone’s teamwork for their win today and promised to carry the momentum going to Ittenyon. She will turn everything upside down and become the new Princess Title! Sakazaki understands Tatsumi wants to make a fresh start in the new year but Sakazaki hasn’t done enough to make up for all the missed opportunities from this year. She cannot let Tatsumi win the title off her because she still wants to defend it in 2021. She has been through a lot this year but it has not been all negative. This year she established a bond with the audience and she can feel the love from everyone who took the time to come see her wrestle during such a difficult time.

TJPW’s second PPV on OPENREC.tv will take place on 30th January as Twin Box AKIHABARA. That is the venue where the very first TJPW training shows took place before they went into full event production. It will be eight years to the date when the show takes place which is why the PPV name “STARTING POINT” is very fitting. Just like in the old days, matches will happen on a mat instead of a ring and there will be musical performances from an idol group (TBA) before the matches.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SE~NO, MERRY CHRISTMAS! 2020” Results

December 19, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SE~NO, MERRY CHRISTMAS! 2020”, 19/12/2020
Nagoya Civic Gymnasium 3rd Stadium
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Suzume defeated Sena Shiori with the Ring A Bell (8:23).
2. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Nodoka Tenma defeated Haruna Neko with the Killswitch (5:53).
3. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Shoko Nakajima defeated Mirai Maiumi with a Hurricanrana (7:51).
4. Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku defeated Mizuki, Hyper Misao & Moka Miyamoto when Raku pinned Miyamoto with the Doctor Yellow (10:22).
5. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Marika Kobashi with the White Dragon Sleeper (8:01).
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino & Nao Kakuta when Kamifuku pinned Aino with the Fame Asser (9:28).
7. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Yuka Sakazaki defeated Pom Harajuku with the Magical Magical Girl Splash (9:45).
8. Christmas Special 6 Big Single Match: Miyu Yamashita Vs Maki Itoh ended in a Time Limit Draw (10:00).

Looks like Miyu Yamashita Vs Maki Itoh at Korakuen Hall has reason to go ahead. Yamashita had been saying if she got an overwhelming victory today then there would be no Korakuen rematch. Instead the final seconds of the match had Itoh in control. She countered the Crash Rabbit Heat into a Half Crab then fought for a full Boston Crab until the time expired. Itoh got angry because she thinks Yamashita is making a fool out of her. She promised she will surpass Yamashita on 4th January. Yamashita said a draw for her is the same as losing. She will achieve complete victory over Itoh at Korakuen.

Pom Harajuku left a pile of Christmas items on the floor outside the ring for Yuka Sakazaki to slip on while chasing her. She was almost able to last the full ten minutes against the champion but Sakazaki won out with the Magical Magical Girl Splash.

Team Toyo University got a direct win over one half of the Princess Tag Team Champions with Yuki Kamifuku pinning Yuki Aino. Kamifuku wrapped her International Princess Title over her shoulder and said she is going to add one more soon.

Full TJPW Card For 4th January

December 18, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’21”, 04/01/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto Vs Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko
2. Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori
4. Aja Kong, Mizuki & Raku Vs Miu Watanabe, Nao Kakuta & Mirai Maiumi
5. Arisu Endo Debut Match: Suzume Vs Arisu Endo
6. Miyu Yamashita Vs Maki Itoh
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi

The main event has a lot going for it. Yuka Sakazaki and Rika Tatsumi have known each other for years, even before they began training to be pro wrestlers. Seven years ago Sakazaki convinced Tatsumi to go train together so she is a special person in Tatsumi’s life. But for this match Tatsumi sees Sakazaki only as the Princess Of Princess Champion. Tatsumi wants to defeat “The Magical Girl who resembles Fudo Myoo” so she can transform from a White Dragon into a Dragon God!

According to the Toyo University Combo, their bond is more stronger than those between sisters. Yuki Kamifuku thinks she and Mahiro Kiryu are more like clones of the Toyo University founder Inoue Enryo’s daughter! The Bakuretsu Sisters don’t just want to make memories out of their Princess Tag Team Titles reign. They want to defend the belts as much as they can because it took them so long to win them.

Two years ago, Maki Itoh failed to beat Miyu Yamashita in the Ittenyon main event. It was a poor performance that at the time left her traumatized. Now she realizes it was not a setback but valuable experience. When she sticks up her middle finger it is a sign of confidence and determination. Itoh’s middle finger cannot be broken! Yamashita thinks this is a Tokyo Joshi Pro match that can appeal to the world. She’s letting Itoh do the talking now. When they get in the ring Yamashita will show her what she’s really got.

Arisu Endo is a 22 years old from Fukushima and is 150cm tall. She became a pro wrestler because she loves wrestling but is nervous to have her debut match. Endo’s favourite wrestler is Reika Saiki and she wants to become as cool as her. Suzume is looking forward to see what kind of wrestler Endo will be so she is happy to be her debut opponent.

Aja Kong is back! Mizuki is honored to team with her. Raku’s wrestling career is currently three years old. She thinks three year olds still need to take naps so she will do so. Miu Watanabe sees this match as a bridge between idols and pro wrestling. Nao Kakuta’s goal for 2021 is to win a championship so a win here will give her momentum. Mirai Maiumi wants to show the kind of brilliance in Korakuen Hall that only she can.

Sena Shiori has been frustrated by losing to NEO Biishiki-gun over and over since the unit returned and turned their attention to her. There’s nothing she can’t do with Hikari Noa which is why she thinks they can win. Noa is surprised she gets to team with Shiori in Korakuen so quickly. She wants to help her win her first match because it will happen on the first anniversary of Shiori’s debut.

In a rematch from last year’s Ittenyon, Shoko Nakajima and Hyper Misao will face off again. Last time the loser had to change their name for a month. Misao beat Misao and renamed her Akemi Daredasore. Misao has changed her name a few times in her career, even her private one because she recently got married but she hasn’t forgotten about that match. Which is why she wants the same stipulation for the rematch and have it become an annual gimmick for the Ittenyon show! Nakajima accepts the challenge because she has very few things to protect. She believes the more things a person needs to protect, the more weaknesses they have.

The opening match is between the two youngest generations in Tokyo Joshi. Marika Kobashi will be celebrating her 5th anniversary of her debut. Moka Miyamoto thinks she is the exact opposite of Kobashi but they can do their best as a tag team of active college students. Haruna Neko isn’t bothered by who is her juniors or seniors in the match. She just wants to win. Pom Harajuku felt she wasn’t able to work hard in 2020 so she wants to get 2021 off on the right track with a victory.

The live broadcast of the show will have separate streams. ABEMA will host the local broadcast with Haruo Murata and Sayoko Mita on commentary. WRESTLE UNIVERSE will provide live English commentary for the first time with Mark Pickering and Stewart Fulton on the headsets.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

December 6, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 06/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Mirai Maiumi defeated Haruna Neko with the Back Drop (6:15).
2. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Nao Kakuta defeated Maki Itoh, Pom Harajuku & Suzume when Tatsumi submitted Suzume with the White Dragon Sleeper (11:45).
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Sena Shiori & Moka Miyamoto when Sakisama submitted Miyamoto with the Versailles Foot Choke (13:00).
4. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Miyu Yamashita, Marika Kobashi & Hikari Noa when Aino pinned Kobashi with the Venus DDT (12:23).
5. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Hyper Misao & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Cutie Special (10:08).
6. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Fame Asser (11:45).
*V1 for Yuki Kamifuku.

Yuki Kamifuku came close to losing the International Princess Title in her first defence. When she went for the Fame Asser, Mahiro Kiryu caught her in the Spinebuster for a nearfall. Kamifuku used a Dropkick to regain control and hit the Fame Asser on the second attempt to get the win. After the match Kiryu said she was disappointed because she fought with all of her might and still lost. Kamifuku told her to continue working hard then asked if she still has other goals to fight for. Kiryu brought up the time they were supposed to team together to go after the Princess Tag Team Titles but Kamifuku had to pull out with an injury. Kamifuku apologised and Kiryu asked her if they could team up again. Kamifuku agreed and called out The Bakuretsu Sisters to challenge them for the belts. The Sisters walked out and immediately accepted. Nodoka Tenma said she always wanted to fight them and Yuki Aino could really feel the spirit coming out of Kamifuku and Kiryu. The champions want the match to happen at Korakuen Hall on 4th January! The challengers said their connection through Toyo University is like a brotherhood so the title match will be a battle between brothers and sisters!

Hyper Misao entered the ring for her match carrying a cooking pot. Now that she is married she has another dream she wants to achieve. She wants to be an assitant on a cooking show. Raku took the pot to demonstrate a 30 second hamburger steak recipe she knows because The Magical Sugar Rabbits love hamburger steak. When she finished, Misao opened the pot to reveal a can of cold spray was inside and she sprayed her opponents’ faces with it.

A serving tray is the new secret weapon behind NEO Biishiki-gun’s success. Mei Saint-Michel used it to block Moka Miyamoto’s attacks and then placed it behind Daisuke Kiso for him to slip on so she and Sakisama could do use more illegal tactics while he was down. Sena Shiori tried to save Miyamoto but the rookies were dealt with a loss at the end. NEO Biishiki-gun played innocent and acted concerned about the “accidents” that happened throughout the match.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits Vs Daydream was announced for 12th December.

DDT “EXTREME RECAPTURE STRATEGY”, 02/12/2020
Tokyo Savage Field

1. DDT Extreme Title: Sanshiro Takagi (c) Vs Rambo Kawamura

Sanshiro Takagi’s first DDT Extreme Title defence ended in disaster when Rambo Kawamura ambushed the champion and took the belt hostage! Guerilla tactics will be needed for Takagi to get it back because Kawamura has fled to the Savage Field, an outdoor area somewhere in Tokyo used for airsoft activities, shooting ranges and other gun hobbies.

DDT “OH LIFE IS ABOUT PRO WRESTLING”, 04/12/2020
PIA LIVE STREAM

1. DDT Vs Big Japan Pro Wrestling Full Scale Proxy War: Pokotan Vs Death Kamo-kun
2. Single Match Where Life Intersects: Yasu Urano Vs Makoto Oishi
3. Street Wrestling In Nemuro Where I See What Samson Miyamoto Left Behind: X Vs X

The mascots of both DDT and Big Japan face off. I suppose Pokotan and Death Kamo-kun will have a wrestling match but who knows what Danshoku Dieno wants them to do. He is hyping up the show by saying it will be something he has never seen anyone else do and it won’t broadcast anywhere outside of his Pia Live Stream.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 06/12/2020
Tokyo Narimasu Act Hall

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Mahiro Kiryu

Last month, Yuki Kamifuku and Mahiro Kiryu were supposed to team together in Narimasu and fight for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. Kamifuku had to pull out of the match with a broken finger. When Kiryu challenged her for the International Princess Title this week, the champion knew it must take place in Narimasu for that reason.

Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel will be on the show. Two things happen every time NEO Biishiki-gun reappear in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Sakisama and her loyal partner go after the Princess Tag Titles and they end up feuding with the newer members of the roster. Suzume & Sena Shiori look to be the feud if Saint-Michel’s immediate opinion on them is anything to go by.

5. Homoiro Clover Z Vs NωA Full Scale Battle ~ Oishi Contra Oishi: Danshoku Dieno, Akito & Makoto Oishi Vs Shunma Katsumata, MAO & Makoto Oishi

Long ago, way back in February of this year Homoiro Clover Z reunited at a BOYZ show. Their return was met with defiance from the also reunited NωA and the two sides argued over who the real music idols of DDT were. As a member of both units, Makoto Oishi was stuck in the middle and unable to choose a side. A decision was made to do an Oishi Contra Oishi match with the winners getting Oishi all to themselves. The idea was forgotten about when BOYZ came back in August but it’s happening here on Christmas Eve! Oishi has to wrestle for both teams too.

There is one other match to be announced.

GANBARE☆PRO “THE WORLD 2020”, 26/12/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) Vs Shota

Like a lot of people, Shota’s plans for 2020 had to be put on the wayside. He wanted to go on excursion to Mexico but that can’t happen. He also wants to win the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title this year but there is only one Ganbare☆Pro show left on the 2020 schedule. He had to convince Asuka it would be an easy defence for her in order to get the title shot.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’21”, 04/01/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

The challenger Rika Tatsumi has begun secret Dragon training to prepare for her big Princess Of Princess Title match. She has a lot of history with Yuka Sakazaki. In 2013 both of them were part of a music group of wrestlers called DPG and then they joined Tokyo Joshi Pro at around the same time afterwards.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

November 23, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 23/11/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Nao Kakuta defeated Haruna Neko with the Shiden Kai (6:10).
2. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita & Marika Kobashi when Nakajima pinned Kobashi with the Northern Lights Suplex (8:20).
3. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Moka Miyamoto defeated Maki Iyoh, Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Tenma pinned Shiori with a Diving Body Press (14:18).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Suzume & Mirai Maiumi when Kiryu pinned Maiumi with the Spinebuster (7:32).
5. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mzuki & Raku when Tatsumi pinned Raku with the Twist Of Fate (13:08).

Rika Tatsumi is taking her time when it comes to Yuka Sakazaki. She has a lot on her mind about their history together heading into 4th January so she will talk about it little by little. When she heard Sakazaki at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” say she will always give it her all because she doesn’t want to lose, that connected with Tatsumi. She’s happy to know they share the same mindset. Tatsumi normally doesn’t like working out and practicing hard but she will begin secret dragon training to prepare for the Ittenyon Princess Of Princess Title match.

Mahiro Kiryu got revenge on Mirai Maiumi for eliminating her in the International Princess Title tournament 1st Round by pinning her in their tag match. Kiryu was frustrated by the loss while still being happy to see Yuki Kamifuku win the vacant title. Now that she won today, Kiryu wants to face Kamifuku for the championship! Kamifuku understands where Kiryu is coming from but she isn’t sure Kiryu is stylish enough to be the same kind of champion she is. Still, she accepted the challenge and asked for it to be an important match they will both improve from. She also decided that the match should happen in Narimasu because that was where they were supposed to team up and fight for a Princess Tag Team Titles shot back in October.

Early in Match #3, Sena Shiori needed to tag out. Maki Itoh wanted to tag in but Shiori ignored her to tag Hikari Noa instead. After those two tagged in back and forth, Itoh got fed up and began attacking Noa and they fought each other on the floor. They eventually got along again when they realised Shiori was left to fight The Bakuretsu Sisters and Moka Miyamoto on her own.

Hyper Misao entered the ring wearing a veil and carrying a bouquet while “Happy Summer Wedding” was playing instead of her normal music. Everyone heard that on Friday she got engaged. Today she announced that on 22nd November she and Takamasa Utashiro got married! Now that she is a wife, Misao wants to repent for her past mistakes and spread happiness to other people. So she will give her bouquet to somebody else she wants to be happy. Marika Kobashi is still a little young so Misao chose Miyu Yamashita. She handed her the bouquet and then it suddenly sprayed water into Yamashita’s face. It was a trap! Yamashita quickly recovered and gave Misao a Soccer Kick. Misao’s tag partner Shoko Nakajima declared their plan a failure and the match went on as normal.

The Shiden Kai used by Nao Kakuta is a Spinning Stunner.
