BASARA “BASARA 216 ~KOO~” Results

April 19, 2023

BASARA “BASARA 216 ~KOO~”, 18/04/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Takumi Tsukamoto, Ryota Nakatsu & Yasu Urano defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Nakatsu pinned Kazato with the V Slider (10:21).
2. FUMA & KUBITO defeated Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita when FUMA pinned Shimomura with the Heavy Metal Anthem (13:13).
3. Special Rule “I’m Sorry” Match: Isami Kodaka defeated Gouma Ryu when Ryu said “I’m Sorry” (13:55).
4. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) defeated Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka when Kamino pinned Kraken with the Lariat (16:40).
*V2 for Aijin Tag.
5. Union MAX Title: Banana Senga (c) defeated SAGAT with the Koryu (18:23)
*V1 for Banana Senga.

Things are getting serious for Banana Senga. After defending the Union MAX Title against SAGAT he told the fans he has a big responsibility as a Double Crown champion (he is also one of the TTT Indie Unified 6-Man Tag Team Champions). He thinks the MAX Title is a heavyweight championship so he is trying to gain weight and be over 100kg. Takumi Tsukamoto entered the ring and said he was so excited watching the main event he wants to use his MAX Title shot right now. Instead the two agreed to have their title match on 13th May because that is when both men are available for the same BASARA show. Backstage Senga also admitted by being champion he makes more money so he wants to save up for a hair transplant! He mentioned he can get it done in Turkey where it is one third of the price as in Japan.

The first time Aijin Tag were IRON FIST Tag Champions their reign only lasted for one defence. They can rest a little easy now that their second reign has already surpassed that. Takato Nakano feels motivated he & Masato Kamino can reach 10 title defences when all is said and done. They beat the Tochigi team of Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka. The challengers expected the result but they still think they did a good job teaming together for the first time. Isaka would like to stick around in BASARA and team with Kraken more.

The match between Isami Kodaka and Gouma Ryu had a special rule attached. Whoever would say “I’m sorry” first would lose. It led to Kodaka and Ryu demanding each other wrestler to apologize while they were putting each other in different holds. Ryu ended up getting tired and tried to make Kodaka apologize for putting him in this situation. Kodaka instead said it was ok and asked him to continue wrestling. Ryu understood and apologized, losing the match in the process.

After the opening match, Gouma Ryu approached Ryota Nakatsu and handed him money to be in his corner for his match against Kodaka. Nakatsu accepted and briefly interfered in the later match.

Grand Princess Newcomers, Sasaki’s Return Match, USA Updates

March 8, 2023

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’23”, 18/03/2023
Ariake Coliseum

1. Suzume Vs Arisu Endo
2. Haru Kazashiro & Runa Okubo Debut Match: Mahiro Kiryu, Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Kaya Toribami, Toga, Haru Kazashiro & Runa Okubo

9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Max The Impaler & Heidi Howitzer (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Mizuki

The Wasteland War Party have completed three successful Princess Tag Team Titles defences in America over the last few weeks. Tokyo Joshi Pro has recognised all three of them. Nobody over there has been able to take the belts from the champs so when they come back to Japan their match against 121000000 will now be a title bout. It was always going to be like this but it’s only been made official a couple of days ago. Those are the kind of semantics a wrestling company has to deal with when they have a travelling champion. The Wasteland War Party will be at the 22nd March show too.

The two teenage trainees have announced their official ring names. Haru is now Haru Kazashiro. She is 158cm tall and was born in Tokyo on 28th March, 2008. She became a fan of TJPW after watching Maki Itoh matches. She is also a fan of The Bakuretsu Sisters and decided to become a pro wrestler after watching Nodoka Tenma’s graduation match. Her debut match is happening one day before her junior high school graduation ceremony.

Momo is now Runa Okubo. She is 155cm tall and was born in Saitama on 15th June, 2008 making her the youngest wrestler in TJPW. She became a pro wrestling fan through her parents and her goal is to reach the level of Yuki Kamifuku.

BASARA “BASARA 213 ~TAKAGARI 15~”, 18/03/2023
Takashimadaira Ward Community Center

1. Isami Kodaka Vs Antonio Honda
2. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs FUMA & KUBITO

The new IRON FIST Tag Champions quickly hit a bump in the road after winning the belts. Takato Nakano couldn’t win the Union MAX Title and Masato Kamino dropped a fall to KUBITO. Feeling the need to prove their strength, Aijin Tag had no choice but to nominate FUMA & KUBITO as the No. 1 Contenders for the tag titles.

Hideyoshi Kamitani from Big Japan and Koju Takeda from 666 will both be on the show. Takeda will not be in his Pheromones gimmick but his regular self is still at risk of acting inappropriate in the ring.

16. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuji Hino (c) Vs Yukio Naya

Daisuke Sasaki claims to have a few more matches in him before he disappears to America or Mexico or whatever country it is that he wants to live the rest of his life in. He is added onto the 26th Anniversary show reuniting most of DAMNATION T.A. Their opponents Chris Brookes & Drew Parker are adding Hagane Shinno to their ranks to even the odds.

A special training session was made for Hikaru Machida when he went to visit Yukio Sakaguchi’s gym today. Sakaguchi thinks Machida has been lacking something in his switch from MMA to pro wrestling. The solution was to bring in Minowaman to train him! The fighter, now going by the name Minowaman Z told Machida to follow him outside to a nearby park where they would train together. He wanted Machida to learn that you can work out anywhere no matter where you go.

BASARA “BASARA 212 ~KOO~” Results

February 28, 2023

BASARA “BASARA 212 ~KOO~”, 28/02/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato defeated Lil’ Kraken & Tsutomu Oosugi when Kazato pinned Kraken with the OPA! (7:33).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Antonio Honda defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Honda pinned Senga with the Bionic Elbow (10:32).
3. FUMA & KUBITO defeated Masato Kamino & Yasu Urano when KUBITO pinned Kamino with the Death Metal Roll (11:35).
4. SAGAT defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the Gore Grind (9:30).
5. Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Daiki Shimomura & Fuminori Abe when Higuchi pinned Shimomura with the Brain Claw Slam (14:45).
6. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Isamiashi Zan (17:55).
*V5 for Isami Kodaka.

When the main event was over Isami Kodaka told Takato Nakano he has grown up a lot. But despite Nakano’s progress, Kodaka is not ready to give up his spot on top yet and challenges Nakano to face him as many times as he wants. Nakano was about to challenge him to a rematch for next month only for Kodaka to cut him off and say he’s now at the back of the line. However he also thanked him for joining BASARA in the first place. Banana Senga then came down to the ring and challenged Kodaka for the Union MAX Title on 28th March. Kodaka accepted and is led to believe Senga’s sudden move into singles wrestling was influenced by his tag partner Tsutomu Oosugi recently doing the same elsewhere.

The other half of the IRON FIST TAG Champions also lost his match. Masato Kamino was pinned by KUBITO and he tried to blame it on Yasu Urano. When Nakano found out about it backstage he told Kamino they have to give KUBITO a title shot now even though KUBITO did not ask for one. Aijin Tag agreed with each other to put the belts on the line against KUBITO & FUMA next month.

Antonio Honda was taken to trial accused of committing fraud. Senga said signed a contract to have pro wrestling match in Shin-Kiba 1st RING and then accused Honda of not being a pro wrestler. Honda tried to prove his innocence by describing Gongitsune as a wrestling technique but Senga then accused him of plagiarism. He then turned up the heat after Honda admitted to turning down a booking in favour of doing non-wrestling related live performances recently. However Honda defended himself by saying he takes pro wrestling more seriously than either Senga or Gouma Ryu. The trial devolved into a 3 Way Match that ended with Honda beating Senga. Honda admitted he’s been taking pro wrestling for granted so he now entrusts his dreams to Senga. That is what convinced Senga to challenge Kodaka for the Union MAX Title later in the show.

The entire day of shows was built around Sento Minzoku against Aijin Tag. The entire roster were split into two sides with points awarded for winning matches. After the first show Aijin Tag were leading Sento Minzoku by two points but that just meant they were one win ahead.

Aijin Tag Army: Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino, Takumi Tsukamoto, KUBITO, SAGAT, Ryota Nakatsu, Fuminori Abe and Masahiro Takanashi

Then in the second show Aijin Tag kept the lead almost the entire way through. The score was briefly tied but when it was time for the main event, Sento Minzoku was still trailing by two points. It just was not going to be their day. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura to win the IRON FIST TAG Titles and end the series as the grand winners. Nakano pinned Kodaka as well resulting in him challenging Kodaka for the Union MAX Title on 28th February. They chose that date because both Kodaka and Nakano want to be the one carrying that belt into Korakuen Hall the next day at the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023”!

The TJPW debut of Janai Kai has her teaming with Hikari Noa.

Either Wakana Uehara or HIMAWARI will get their first singles win. Unless a draw somehow happens.

Higuchi invited an close friend of his to join Harimao and bolster up the unit while Naomi Yoshimura is out injured. Ryota Nakatsu from BASARA was Higuchi’s rival in DNA and is more than happy to give Harimao some reinforcement. He also doesn’t want people to think he is only filling in for Yoshimura because he is a fully fledged fourth member of the stable. Meanwhile DAMNATION T.A is still working out as a focused force even with Daisuke Sasaki still missing. Just like every other show that’s being advertised since his absence, the card can change if Sasaki appears at the show and is able to wrestle.

DDT “HEAT WAVE OVER FLOWERS 2 ~THE WORLD THAT EVERYONE DOES NOT KNOW~”, 14/02/2023

DDT received a message from Gorgeous Matsuno earlier today about his singles match against Yuki Ueno. Matsuno warns there is another wrestler out there who wants to fight Ueno as much as he does so Matsuno is bringing him to the show. Matsuno also wants the match to turn into a 2 Vs 1 Handicap Match because of this. Ueno accepts the challenge, thinking Matsuno is so little of a threat that it may as well still be a singles match.

3. 4 Way Tag Match: Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Keigo Nakamura
4. Tetsuya Endo, Kotaro Suzuki & Yusuke Okada Vs Yuji Hino, Makoto Oishi & Kazuma Sumi
5. Nagoya Specialty Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Yukio Naya Vs HARASHIMA, Soma Takao & Shinya Ishida
6. International Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kip Sabian (w/ Penelope Ford), Chris Brookes & Hagane Shinno Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Yuki Ueno & Yuki Ishida
7. DDT Universal Title: Naruki Doi (c) Vs KANON
8. DDT Extreme Title – Master Of Environment Match: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs Akito

Once again Jun Akiyama is allowing his challenger to come up with the match stipulation for a DDT Extreme Title defence. This time it is Akito as the opponent and he came up with the Master Of Environment Match. All four corner turnbuckle pads will be removed and two green straps will criss cross the ring. Akiyama and Akito will fight under normal rules with the ring in this state. The green straps do not count as rope breaks. Akito was inspired by Gaia’s fight against Sikorsky in Baki The Grappler to come up with the match idea. That fight was all about how to use the environment as a weapon and Akito thinks he has a much better chance of beating Akiyama under a similar scenario. The concept might backfire though because Akiyama himself admits he does not move a lot in his matches. The restrictions caused by the extra ropes across the ring may not even matter in the end. Akito wants to return the Extreme Title belt back to purple if he wins it but accepts that it is the champion who gets to make that decision.

Proof of DAMNATION T.A still being a well oiled machine can be seen from how KANON is dealing with Naruki Doi. KANON & MJ Paul attacked Doi backstage after his match last weekend. Today at a press conference KANON approached Doi and apologised for his behaviour. Doi wanted to make sure if the DDT Universal Title defence against KANON is only going to involve those two and no one else. That means no Sasaki and no Paul in KANON’s corner while Doi will not have Kazuki Hirata in his. Doi then hesitantly shook KANON’s hand until KANON gave him a low blow! He told Doi his title reign won’t make it past its first defence in Nagoya!

Let’s see how this AEW relationship works out. Kip Sabian makes his DDT debut and Penelope Ford is by his side for extra danger. His first match here has him teaming with both Chris Brookes & Hagane Shinno as an international trio. Shinno recently had his own little excursion in AEW over the winter.

BASARA “BASARA 211 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 24~”, 18/02/2023
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR

1. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino

The new IRON FIST Tag Champions are going up against former champions in their first defence. Isami Kodaka is now a double BASARA champion and Daiki Shimomura wants to hold the tag titles long enough for the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023”. That’s if he is chosen as BASARA’s representative of course. He may have jumped the gun on that. Aijin Tag lost the belts to the previous champions and had already planned to challenge them to a rematch. Now that Sento Minzoku have the titles, Aijin Tag had to change their target.

DDT/GCW “GCW VS DDT”, 31/03/2023
Ukrainian Cultural Center, Los Angeles, California, USA

1. Dark Sheik Vs Saki Akai
2. Jordan Oliver & Nick Wayne Vs MAO & Mike Bailey

We have our first two matches for the GCW Vs DDT show! The Moonlight Express reunite to take on The East West Express. The show will also pit GCW’s Dark Sheik against DDT’s own Saki Akai.

A partial lineup of other wrestlers have been announced. Team DDT so far consists of Kazusada Higuchi, Jun Akiyama and Yoshihiko. The first crop of GCW wrestlers showing up are Joey Janela, Blake Christian, EFFY and Allie Katch. The last two are being advertised together as Bussy (adding that to the taglist is going to be a dangerous game) so that means we have at least one other tag match happening.

BASARA “BASARA 209 ~GLITTER~” Results

January 31, 2023

BASARA “BASARA 209 ~GLITTER~”, 31/01/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Takato Nakano defeated Lil’ Kraken with the Diving Double Knee Drop (7:38).
2. Jacket 3 Way Match: FUMA and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi defeated Gouma Ryu with an Arm Lock And Camel Clutch And Sickle Lock Combination (R3 1:29).
3. Masato Kamino & Fuminori Abe defeated KUBITO & Daichi Kazato when Kamino pinned Kazato with the Lariat (11:31).
4. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated SAGAT & Akiyori Takizawa when Oosugi pinned Takizawa with a Cradle (10:36).
5. Kazusada Higuchi defeated Ryota Nakatsu with the Brain Claw Slam (17:56).
6. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano (c) when Shimomura pinned Urano with the Swanton Bomb (16:40).
*Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano fails n V1. Sento Minzoku becomes the 8th IRON FIST Tag Champions!

Isami Kodaka lived up to his word and is now the first wrestler in BASARA to hold the Union MAX Title and IRON FIST Tag Titles at the same time! Daiki Shimomura was also excited to win the Tag Titles again for a second time. Aijin Tag came out after the match to challenge Sento Minzoku to a title match. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino wanted to win the belts back from Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano but now they will have to fight the new champions instead. Nakano is hoping to win so he can bring the belt with him to the “ALL STAR JR FESTIVAL 2023” on 1st March but Kamino interrupted him before he finished saying it. The new champions accepted and Kodaka decided the match will happen at Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR on 18th February. He also wants to defend the Union MAX Title in the same month so that will likely happen on the 28th in Shin-Kiba 1st RING.

The match between friends and DNA rivals Kazusada Higuchi and Ryota Nakatsu almost ended in a double knockout. Both wrestlers were down for a 9 count after Nakatsu applied a Triangle Choke and Higuchi broke free by countering it with a Power Bomb. Higuchi got the better of Nakatsu in the final exchange and pinned him with the Brain Claw Slam. After the match Higuchi said he and Yuki Ishida are unsure when Naomi Yoshimura will return to action. He asked for Nakatsu’s help and offered him a spot in Harimao. Given their history together Nakatsu was happy to accept after the other members of Sparky gave him their blessing. He also made sure to note he is joining as a new member and not as a replacement for the injured Yoshimura. Higuchi explained in an interview after the show that he wanted to add a presence not from DDT to the unit. He always thought if Harimao was going to add a fourth member it would be Nakatsu.

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~” Results

December 11, 2022

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~”, 11/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. FUMA, KUBITO & Daichi Kazato defeated Lil’ Kraken, Akira Jo & Leo Isaka when FUMA pinned Kraken after the Rider Kick German Suplex (10:17).
2. No DQ 3 Way Tag Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Shiori Asahi (w/ Gouma Ryu) and Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Kei pinned Hiroshi after the Gotai Fumanzoku (6:32).
3. Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita when Nakatsu pinned Sekine after the V Slider from Nakatsu (12:03).
4. Atsuki Aoyagi defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Firebird Splash (10:53).
5. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs when Urano pinned Nakano with the Cross-Arm Thunder Fire Bomb (16:04).
*Aijin Tag fails in V2. Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano become the 7th IRON FIST Tag Champions!
6. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) defeated Fuminori Abe by Knockout with the Isamiashi Zan (19:27).
*V3 for Isami Kodaka.

Fuminori Abe’s attempt to win back the Union MAX Title failed after he lost to Isami Kodaka by Knockout. The two pulled no punches against each other, ending with Kodaka cutting down the challenger with the Isamiashi Zan. Abe was given a 10 count to return to his feet and he almost made it. By 9 he was propping himself back up to a standing position by using the ropes but he collapsed and the referee made it to 10 to end the match. Kodaka celebrated the win with the rest of Sento Minzoku and spent his victory speech saying how great pro wrestling is. He also told Abe that the next time they fight each other he is going to beat him by pinfall.

Abe got to give a speech too and talked about his last five years wrestling under the BASARA banner. He does not know how much longer his career is going to last but he will dedicate what’s left of it to the development of independent wrestling, BASARA included. He explained himself further after the show by revealing his contract with BASARA is ending on 31st December and he made the decision to go freelance in 2023. He joked about going to WWE but in reality nothing is changing. Abe will continue to appear at BASARA on a regular basis on the same kind of deal Minoru Fujita and Yasu Urano are doing. The indies have helped Abe and nurtured him throughout his life so this is how he is going to pay it back. That’s why he kept this announcement for after the show instead of saying it in the ring.

In 2016 Takumi Tsukamoto won the first ever IRON FIST TAG TOURNAMENT with Isami Kodaka but there IRON FIST Tag Titles did not exist yet. So it wasn’t until today that Tsukamoto finally won the titles with Urano as his partner. He thinks the belts were made for him because they feature a moon design on one of the plates and he has a moon on his ring gear. Aijin Tag are depressed to lose the titles this quickly after dedicating so much of their year trying to win them.

Ryuichi Sekine is happy to be back in pro wrestling even though he lost his return match. He spent his time away from the ring as a farmer and plans to continue doing that career along with pro wrestling from now on. Sekine will come back for more matches but has not decided when they will happen next.

Akiyama’s 1st TLC Match, Kotaro BURNS Again, Rhio Challenges Yamashita For EVE Title

November 30, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN TOUR ’22”, 03/12/2022
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Mizuki Vs Haruna Neko
2. Rika Tatsumi Vs Pom Harajuku
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Millie McKenzie Vs Shoko Nakajima & Suzume

5. Yuki Aino & Raku Vs Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo Vs Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Moka Miyamoto

The long road to Ittenyon has begun. Yuka Sakazaki and Miyu Yamashita have plenty of time and matches with each other to prepare for the Princess Of Princess Title match on 4th January.

Raku has recovered from covid and is cleared to wrestle again. She missed out on the Princess Tag Team Titles match but her team with Yuki Aino continues.

Before Millie McKenzie goes back to England she is getting another match in Tokyo Joshi Pro.

Nao Kakuta is absent again because she is back doing her stage play.

DDT “D-OU GRAND PRIX 2022 THE FINAL”, 04/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Akito & Antonio Honda
2. Soma Takao, Hideki Okatani & Hikaru Machida Vs Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Takeshi Masada
3. BURNING Vs The 37KAMIINA!: Tetsuya Endo, Kotaro Suzuki & Yusuke Okada Vs MAO, Shunma Katsumata & Toi Kojima

5. Special 8-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yuji Hino, Chris Brookes & RSP Vs Daisuke Sasaki, Minoru Fujita, MJ Paul & KANON
6. DDT Extreme Title – TLC Match: Joey Janela (c) Vs Jun Akiyama
7. D-Ou Grand Prix 2022 – Final: Yuki Ueno Vs Yukio Naya

For the first time in his illustrious career Jun Akiyama is doing a TLC Match! Joey Janela chose the stipulation on purpose for that reason. He also thinks beating Akiyama in a TLC Match will benefit GCW and their expansion into Japan. Akiyama is not familiar with the match type even after his recent appearances in America for AEW. All he knows is it sounds like the kind of match Shunma Katsumata likes to do. Akiyama agreed to do the match and promises to do it with his own style. He hears that Janela has respect for him but he does not believe it.

During the week Akiyama held an interview with Kotaro Suzuki on his Youtube channel. Suzuki revealed his contract with NOAH had just expired and he is now a free agent. Akiyama suggested he come wrestle a match for DDT. He would set everything up for him to do it. Suzuki was a member of a previous version of BURNING so it only makes sense for him to be part of their team in the match against The 37KAMIINA. The sauna boys add Toi Kojima to even the numbers.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT AUTUMN ~HAMAMATSU PERFORMANCE~”, 10/12/2022
Shizuoka Entetsu Hall

1. EVE Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Rhio

Here is “The Unbreakable” Rhio making her second tour of TJPW. On the same show that Yamashita won the EVE Title at, Rhio had already thrown her name out as the next challenger for the championship. McKenzie ended up leapfrogging her for to be Yamashita’s first challenger and there won’t be another EVE show taking place until January so Rhio is taking matters into her own hands. She is going back to Japan with the goal of winning the EVE Title and bringing it back home. EVE announced that should Rhio beat Yamashita and become the new champion, Yamashita will get a rematch in London on 7th January. I assume she’ll be doing that date with or without the title anyway.

BASARA “BASARA 206 ~RYU TOKOTO~”, 11/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita Vs Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT
2. Daiki Shimomura Vs Atsuki Aoyagi
3. IRON FIST Tag Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano
4. Union MAX Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Fuminori Abe

Yasu Urano is having a career resurgance on the indies. He made it to the final of the Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament and currently holds the main championship in JUST TAP OUT. He can add more glory by teaming with Takumi Tsukamoto and winning the IRON FIST Tag Titles from Aijin Tag. The tournament is the connecting point for everyone in the match. Masato Kamino eliminated Tsukamoto in the first round and then beat his own partner Takato Nakano in the next. Urano beat Kamino in the semi final.

The current AJPW World Jr. Heavyweight Champion is coming to BASARA. In a first time meeting Daiki Shimomura is defending home turf against Atsuki Aoyagi!

DDT “DANSHOKU DIENO 20TH ANNIVERSARY BOOK PUBLICATION COMMEMORATION”, 21/12/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Selfishly For The 2nd Time In 20 Years, A Single Match That Danshoku Dieno Just Wants To See: Yuki “Sexy” Iino Vs Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari
2. Selfishly For The 1st Time In 20 Years, Danshoku Dieno’s Self-Satisfaction Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Muscle Sakai

Danshoku Dieno’s pet dog Haku will be a special guest on the show. He is an 11 month old shelter dog Dieno adopted back in September. Haku will do a meet & greet and will have his own merchandise on sale too.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2022”, 29/12/2022
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Takeshi Masada
2. Pheromones Vs “Miyako & Ward” Pheromones Subjugation Allied Forces: Yuki “Sexy” Iino, Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno, Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari & Koju “Shining Ball” Takeda Vs Akito, Osamu Nishimura, Shinichiro Kawamatsu & Shunma Katsumata
3. Special Tag Match: Saki Akai & Yuki Arai Vs Saori Anou & Riko Kawahata
4. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Chihiro Hashimoto
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs X

Shinya Aoki wants his match against Chihiro Hashimoto to be held under Ganryujima Rules, which means the ropes will be removed from the ring. Hashimoto is unsure to accept the condition because she has never wrestled in that kind of environment before. What she is sure about is to beat Aoki by using her German Suplex finisher, the Albright.

BASARA “BASARA 205 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 22~”, 26/11/2022
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Submission Tag Match: Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano defeated Man Man Kai Kind & Fuminori Abe when Shimomura submitted Kind with a 2 Way Inverted Crab Hold on the Foot Acupoint Mat (10:07).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 2 – 0 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
2. Jacket Tag Match: Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken defeated Daichi Kazato & Takumi Tsukamoto by Referee Stoppage when Kamino used the Tenri High Butterfly Lock on Kazato (R4 0:47).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 2 – 2 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
3. Horror! Jusenkyo Single Match: Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Banana Senga ended in a No Contest (11:33). (Special Referee: Isami)
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 3 – 3 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
4. Loser Loses Gilberto Style Match: Yasu Urano defeated Isami Kodaka when Kodaka let go of the Gilberto (5:32).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 5 – 3 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.
5. Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces Vs Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack Special Tag Match: Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & FUMA when Nakatsu grabbed the Scroll (15:14).
*Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces 5 – 5 Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack.

Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, FUMA, Yasu Urano, Banana Senga, Daichi Kazato, Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano

Ninja USA Forces Counter Attack: Ryota Nakatsu, SAGAT, Isami Kodaka, Tsutomu Oosugi, Masato Kamino, Lil’ Kraken, Fuminori Abe & Man Man Kai Kind

The second show was built around a challenge series between the Kung Fu Yoga Allied Forces led by Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & FUMA against the Ninja USA Forces led by Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT. 2 points were given for a win and 1 was given for a draw. The series ended in a 5-5 tie after the main event so maybe another challenge will be held again sometime in the future.

The final match had a scroll hanging above the ring and the winning team was whoever could pull it down first. It was not a Ladder match however and there were none to be seen. Everyone piled together for Hiroshi and Nakatsu to climb onto and the two fought beneath the scroll. Hiroshi was knocked off the pile and Nakatsu was able to grab the scroll before falling after him to win the match.

Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken missed the memo on the jacket match and came down to the ring wearing swimming costumes instead of martial arts gear.
