DDT Around The World – August 2026

September 1, 2026

There is going to come a point where I have to rename this series TJPW Around The World because DDT is solely focusing on their domestic business right now while Tokyo Joshi Pro’s wings are well and truly spread by now. Konosuke Takeshita is the DDT link that keeps the current name remaining for now and I think it won’t last that way forever. TJPW’s international plan has returned to the stage where their wrestlers are winning, defending or challenging for other company’s championships. It’s a nice reminder that these women still have a lot to offer now that they’re no longer being needed for TJPW’s main event scene. As we approach the final months of the year we have another Dallas return to look forward to. What 2027 will have on offer is currently a mystery.

RIOT CITY “MEAN ST MAYHEM – FROM RIOT WITH LOVE”, 01/08/2026
Steam Jacket Brewing, Melbourne, Australia

1. Miki Fortune & Zak Sabbath defeated Kira Summer & Havok when Fortune pinned Summer after a Double Stomp/Death Valley Driver Combo (?:??).

At the end of July we saw that Kira Summer was able to beat her sister Miki Fortune in a match that dragged the whole family into their drama. They faced off again a couple of days later in Riot City Wrestling this time in an intergender tag match. Fortune teamed up with her husband Zak Sabbath to beat Summer and her tag partner Havok. Victory came thanks to Sabbath spitting Mist into Havok’s face, leaving Summer helpless against the two-on-one disadvantage from that point onward.


AEW “COLLISION”, 26/08/2026 (Aired 29/08/2026)
OVO Hydro, Glasgow, Scotland

1. Konosuke Takeshita defeated The Beast Mortos with the Raging Fire (10:18).

You know, a match between Takeshita and The Beast Mortos happening in the UK sounds like something that could have happened during the peak era of BritWres. Like during a Super Strong Style 16 weekend or something. Kyle Fletcher would have been nearby either way just like he was here. He attacked Takeshita after the match, hitting him with the AEW International Title and then laying him out with the Brainbuster.


EVE “EVE X THE WORLD 2”, 28/08/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Kay Lee Ray with the Skull Kick (26:03).
*V1 for Miyu Yamashita.

London had a packed weekend to close out the month because of AEW’s return to Wembley. Miyu Yamashita had a big role to play on Friday night where she headlined an EVE show against a newly invigorated Kay Lee Ray. She successfully retained the EVE International Title after a hard fought match but things only got more chaotic from there. First, Kris Statlander walked out. She had won the EVE Title earlier in the show and made it known she wants a rematch with Yamashita. However she brushed past Ray to get into the ring, causing Ray to get back in and start a fight with her. Yamashita kept her nose out of their business and let them fight but then Marina Shafir suddenly got in the ring behind Yamashita and grabbed her in a choke hold to leave her laying!


SETUP “UNDER THE SAME MOON – PUMI 15TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW”, 29/08/2026
The Circus Studio, G Village, Bangkok, Thailand

1. SETUP All Asia Women’s Title: Shoko Nakajima defeated Matcha (c) with the Diving Senton (11:16).
*Matcha fails in V5. Shoko Nakajima becomes the 5th SETUP All Asia Women’s Champion!

The Southeast Asian scene reached a milestone this year regarding the promoter and SETUP owner Pumi Boonyatud. He’s been part of the wrestling industry for 15 years now and put together a big show to celebrate the occasion. He was shown a video of messages from people around the Asian wrestling scene. The Japanese messages were from Hiroshi Tanahashi, Naomichi Marufuji, Sanshiro Takagi, Daisuke Sasaki, Momo Kohgo, Tetsuya Koda, Raku, Pom Harajuku, Emi Sakura and the ChocoPro roster. TJPW were invited to send over someone to challenge Matcha for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title, a championship that’s been held by TJPW wrestlers in the past. The champion gave a pretty strong hint over who she wanted to face, telling TJPW to send someone “Big” to fight her. Needless to say, Shoko Nakajima became her next challenger and the Big Kaiju beat her to become the new All Asia Women’s Champion! Nakajima was almost beaten by Matcha’s Saito Suplex but she recovered and hit the Diving Senton for the title change.


AEW “ALL IN LONDON”, 30/08/2026
Wembley Stadium, London, England

1. AEW International Title – 3 Way Match: Kazuchika Okada defeated Kyle Fletcher (c) and Konosuke Takeshita when Okada pinned Fletcher with the Rainmaker (13:13).
*Kyle Fletcher fails in V4. Kazuchika Okada becomes the 15th AEW International Champion!

Takeshita is now taking his turn as the third wheel in this feud with The Don Callis Family. The 3 Way Match told the story of Fletcher and Kazuchika Okada purposely getting in each other’s way to and become the crown jewel of the Family. Takeshita tried his best to take advantage while fighting clean (he refused to attack his opponents with a screwdriver when he had the chance) and did a sweet looking double cover from a German Suplex for a nearfall. However Fletcher dropped Takeshita with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster onto the turnbuckle only for Okada to take down Fletcher with the Rainmaker. Okada took a split second to consider pinning Takeshita before choosing to lay on top of Fletcher for the three count. That way he can say he pinned the champion to win back this title.


KITSUNE “KAMIYU GOES HOLLYWOOD”, 30/08/2026
Xander Sports Complex, Carson, California, USA

1. Yuki Kamifuku & Alexis Lee defeated Zara Zakher & Dark Sheik when Kamifuku pinned Sheik with the Diving Famouser (?:??).

The month ended with Yuki Kamifuku and friends travelling over to California where Kitsune put her front and centre in the marketing for their show. Alexis Lee went along to team with her (and Mei Suruga was there too) for a match against Zara Zakher & Dark Sheik. Lee helped make sure that the spotlight would remain shining on Kamiyu in the end. Kamifuku gave Sheik a big Superplex and Lee cut off Zakher with a Spear. Kamifuku later Dropkicked Sheik towards the corner where Lee gave her the Sister Abigail that left Sheik stunned. Kamifuku then scored the win by hitting the Diving Famouser. After the match a bunch of the wrestlers surrounded the ring to congratulate Kamifuku for her career.

Foo Chow Building, Singapore

1. Queen Of Asia Title – 3 Way Match: Ms. Selina (c) Vs Mizuki Vs Crystal

Is TJPW coming to take back a bunch of the Southeast Asian wrestling titles again? The All Asia Women’s Title belongs to TJPW again and there’s a chance that the Queen Of Asia Title that was long associated with Yuki Kamifuku could return too. Mizuki’s match over in Singapore Pro Wrestling next month is a 3 Way Match taking on Crystal and the current QOA Champ, Ms. Selina.

DDT Around The World – July 2026

August 1, 2026

Summer vacation season can be different things to different people. For Kira Summer it is an opportunity for her to fly home to Australia, reunite with the family and also get into fights with some of them. For Konosuke Takeshita it is a chance for him to drop a championship before heading into the most gruelling of wrestling tournaments. The likes of Miyu Yamashita, Yuki Kamifuku and Mizuki are happy to wait until summer is over and the weather gets cooler before they go off on their next adventures. And by the time people start getting ready for Christmas we have Tokyo Joshi Pro setting up another tour of Texas for everyone to look forward to.

AEW “DYNAMITE – BEACH BREAK”, 08/07/2026
The BayCare Sound At Coachman Park, Clearwater, Florida, USA

1. AEW International Title: Kyle Fletcher defeated Konosuke Takeshita (c) with the Brainbustaaaaahhhhh!!!!! (16:45).
*Konosuke Takeshita fails in V4. Kyle Fletcher becomes the 14th AEW International Champion!

Takeshita had some business to attend to in AEW before he could get over to New Japan for his G1 tour. The bad blood he has with Kyle Fletcher had the two fighting over AEW International Title. Big bombs were thrown between the two of them leading to a fight on the ring apron where Takeshita gave Fletcher the Bastard Driver as well as the Wheelbarrow Suplex. However Fletcher cut off the PowerDrive Knee by giving Takeshita the Michinoku Driver for a nearfall. Takeshita used a Last Ride to put Fletcher back in position for the PowerDrive Knee but Don Callis then grabbed Takeshita by the ankle at ringside to distract him. Fletcher’s cheap shot turned things around until Takeshita gave him the Raging Fire. Unfortunately he was too hurt to pin him immediately and the pause allowed Fletcher to recover enough to place his leg on the ropes for the pin break. Fletcher rolled out of a Backslide Pin to kick Takeshita right in his arm. He then did the Vertical Drop Brainbuster but Takeshita kicked out. So Fletcher had to lift him up to the top rope where he gave him the El Generico style Brainbuster onto the turnbuckle! That put Takeshita down for the count and made Fletcher the new champion.


ACW “HEART OF WAR”, 18/07/2026
Estonian Hall, North Adelaide, Australia

1. Sister Vs Sister: Kira Summer defeated Miki Fortune with an Inside Cradle (?:??).

Who could have guessed coming home would cause so much family drama? Kira Summer’s first match in Australia since joining TJPW put her in the ring against her own sister Miki Fortune at an Adelaide Championship Wrestling show. First Summer asked for a handshake before the match began but Fortune slapped her hand away. Then a hard Elbow Strike by Fortune from a tie-up sent the message to Summer that her sister wasn’t going to hold back against her. Fortune ended up losing her temper when Summer kicked out of a Draping Double Stomp over the corner. She argued with the referee over it and then pulled him into the way when Summer charged in for a Clothesline. With the ref knocked out, Fortune kept doing Double Stomps onto Summer until she realised nobody was around to count the pin. Drama continued to unfold when another member of the family, an unnamed sister of both Kira and Miki got to the front row yelling at Fortune to stop. Fortune slapped her and pulled her over the railing all while their mother was watching on too! Summer dived onto Fortune from the ring apron, made sure the other relatives were okay and brought Fortune back into the ring to continue the match. Fortune took Summer into a Dragon Sleeper but was kicked back into the ropes. On the rebound Summer rolled Fortune over with an Inside Cradle to get the victory.


PEAK PRO “PUNK FICTION”, 31/07/2026
Steam Jacket Brewing, Melbourne, Australia

1. From Japan, With Love: Tarlee Vs Kira Summer

I haven’t been able to get results for this match yet. At the end of the month Summer was brought into Peak Pro Wrestling as a special opponent for someone. Tarlee recently got engaged to LDeezy after beating him in a ladder match so as an engagement gift, Deezy got Tarlee a match against a joshi wrestler. He brought in Summer thinking it would be a first time matchup for Tarlee but didn’t know that the two of them had previously fought each other in Malaysia last year. It was a 4 Way Match that Tarlee won by pinning Summer so this was a chance for Summer to avenge that result.

Upcoming Appearances


RIOT CITY “MEAN ST MAYHEM – FROM RIOT WITH LOVE”, 01/08/2026
Steam Jacket Brewing, Melbourne, Australia

1. Miki Fortune & Zak Sabbath Vs Kira Summer & Havok

Tell you what, if I can get the result for this match on the day I post this article I’ll move it up to the Results section. That will work out better than waiting a month to write about what might be the last match of Summer’s Australian tour. If it turns out she has more matches over there during August then never mind what I just wrote. Given what just happened between the sisters in ACW, having their next match in a company called Riot City Wrestling sounds a bit for fitting. Zak Sabbath and Havok both look like they would often get themselves involved in causing a ruckus too.


EVE “EVE X THE WORLD 2”, 28/08/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Kay Lee Ray

One of the gatekeepers of British women’s wrestling is waiting for Miyu Yamashita’s return to EVE this August. Kay Lee Ray and that bloody entrance song of hers is back on the indies after a long stay in WWE as Alba Fyre. She hasn’t wasted any time and quickly earned herself a shot at the EVE International Title that Yamashita currently holds.


KITSUNE “KAMIYU GOES HOLLYWOOD”, 30/08/2026
Xander Sports Complex, Carson, California, USA

1. Yuki Kamifuku Vs X

Later this summer Yuki Kamifuku’s retirement road is going to bring her back to the USA. Unfortunately it does not look like she will get to visit Ohio during this time but I doubt she’s going to complain about travelling to California either. Kitsune are bringing her in to the bright lights of Hollywood for what could be her last non-TJPW US date of her career. However it probably won’t be the last time she wrestles in America given what TJPW’s plans are for the end of the year.


SPW “OVERDRIVE”, 18/09/2026
Foo Chow Building, Singapore

1. Mizuki Vs X

Do you want to know the other wrestler that Singapore Pro Wrestling has booked alongside Mizuki for this show so far? Lio Rush in his current “Blackheart” gimmick. The match to make is right there, people!


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW TEXAS STAMPEDE II – HOUSTON PART 1~”, 04/12/2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW TEXAS STAMPEDE II – HOUSTON PART 2~”, 05/12/2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW TEXAS STAMPEDE II – DALLAS~”, 06/12/2026

The great state of Texas welcomes back TJPW this December with a new venue to boot. Are the girls up for a rodeo?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

October 13, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 13/10/2024
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube
218 Fans

1. Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki defeated Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase when Suzuki submitted Nanase with a Body Choke Sleeper Hold (10:12).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Raku and Uta Takami when Mizuki pinned Takami with a Roll Up (7:38).
3. Kaya Toribami defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Sento Choryu (8:36).
4. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Miki Fortune & Kira Summer when Tatsumi pinned Summer with the Twist Of Fate (10:04).
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Toga defeated HIMAWARI with the Rock Bottom (10:19).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Punish (13:16).
7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku with the Tear Drop (14:32).

Autumn is the season for art in Japan so Pom Harajuku drew a portrait of Miu Watanabe for the main event. She then took out a blank canvas and asked Watanabe to draw a portait of her in return but it was just so she could roll her up from behind for a nearfall. Harajuku then hit Watanabe over the head with the canvas and used the frame to trap her and Suzume together. Later Suzume landed a Plancha onto Yuki Aino and Watanabe scored the three count on Harajuku with the Tear Drop. After the match Suzume admitted art was is a bit difficult for her.

A few days ago Tokyo Joshi Pro announced 121000000 will defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against Vert Vixen and Nicole Matthews in Seattle on 9th November. They used today’s match as a warmup to see just how sync they are at the moment. Itoh said she still has trauma from losing the Princess Tag Titles the first time around in Los Angeles so she won’t let her guard down. Yamashita told her the match will be in Seattle this time so she needn’t worry about the trauma anymore.

Kira Summer and her visiting sister Miki Fortune teamed together in TJPW for the first time. Together their team name is Chaos Hunt! However the closely knit duo lost to Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo when Endo threw away Fortune with the Waterwheel Drop leaving Tatsumi to pin Summer with the Twist Of Fate. Chaos Hunt were still happy with how the match went and think they showed the fans what their natural tag team chemistry is like. A reporter later asked them if they would like to have a singles match against each other. Fortune is up for it but Summer knows her sister would kill her and she’d rather stay in one piece.

The Next Generation Tournament began with a bit of an upset because one of last year’s finalists has already been eliminated! HIMAWARI won’t be repeating her success here after Toga beat her with the Rock Bottom. Toga said she felt the pressure of being in the tournament opening match especially one that fans were expecting to be good. HIMAWARI said she wasn’t taking the tournament lightly at all but she learned a harsh lesson that everyone else is growing just as much as she is. She will now face the winner of Shino Suzuki versus Kira Summer in the semi-final.

The match for Haruna Neko’s comeback on 27th October has been announced. She will team with Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu to take on Love Triangle.

Tokyo GOTANDA G6/G7

1. Pom Harajuku Vs Uta Takami
2. Miu Watanabe & Raku Vs Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki

Another season means another Garafes event hosting a few mat wrestling matches with Tokyo Joshi Pro and The Up Up Girls.

5. Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Kaya Toribami
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto
7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume Vs Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku

It’s been so long since TJPW had a tag team of sisters. Kira Summer is bringing over her sister Miki Fortune to team up together. Fortune’s a bit of a wild one so anyone expecting her to act just like Summer will be in for a surprise.

The Next Generation Tournament begins with on this show.

Shoko Nakajima will be in America for Deadlock Pro competing in the Battle Of The Best final so she will be missing this show. Yuki Kamifuku will also be absent because she will be defending the Asian Double Crown over in the Philippines.

DDT “THE LAST BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING OF 2024”, 17/10/2024
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs Yukio Naya & Kazuma Sumi
2. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Toru Owashi, Yuya Koroku & Yuki Ishida
3. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Antonio Honda

6. Special 3-Way Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Yuki Ueno & MAO Vs Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi

Three units are clashing together for the next Beer Garden main event. BURNING, The 37KAMIINA and SCHADENFREUDE International are all sending two of their best for the match.

DDT “DDT PRO WRESTLING IN IKEBUKURO FULL MOON FESTIVAL 2024”, 19/10/2024
Tokyo Ikebukuro Nishiguchi Park Outdoor Theater

1. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Soma Takao & Kazuki Hirata

3. Special Tag Match: Akito & Pokotan Vs Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs HARASHIMA, MIKAMI & Gota Ihashi
5. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Takayuki Ueki, Takeshi Masada & Mecha Mummy Vs Keigo Nakamura, To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi

A team of five from DDT’s new generation are going to challenge for the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles. SCHADENFREUDE have Takayuki Ueki subbing in for Antonio Honda but he was part of the team when they originally won the belts anyway. So it may as well be the champions entering the match at full force.

MIKAMI makes another DDT appearance this year.

One day before the DDT Extreme Title is defended, Akito and Danshoku Dieno are facing off in a wacky tag match with Pokotan and Yoshihiko also involved. The stipulation for the title match hasn’t been chosen yet but it would be leaving it very late if this match is meant to set it up.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024”, 20/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Super Sasadango Machine & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
2. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuki Ishida

5. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA

I bet it will have changed by the time this show happens but the two remaining Right To Challenge Shields are both currently being held by Soma Takao.

DDT “AKOS X DDT EKIMAE PRO WRESTLING”, 26/10/2024
Saitama AKOS Event Square

1. Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Shunma Katsumata Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi
2. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Jun Akiyama, Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura
3. The 37KAMIINA Vs SCHADENFREUDE International!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada

DDT is holding a few matches at a shopping area in Saitama. It is an outdoor show so bad weather on the day could cancel the event. The show notes say it can go ahead if it’s light rain but anything that can be described as stormy will call it off.

DDT “CHARISMANIA”, 06/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. KUBITO & Naohiro Katsumi 19th Anniversary Match: KUBITO Vs Naohiro Katsumi
2. The Greatest Wrestling Match Of CHARISMANIA: Daisuke Sasaki & Yuko Miyamoto Vs Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita

So many people who have links to Daisuke Sasaki are coming to “CHARISMANIA”. He is teaming with Yuko Miyamoto to face his mentors Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita. Also KUBITO and Naohiro Katsumi will have a match together to commemorate Togo’s old wrestling school called SUPER CREW. The two of them along with Sasaki were part of the school’s first graduating class.

Also booked for the show are KANON, MJ Paul, Demus, Ilusion, Diego and Anarko Montaña.

DDT “ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN NARAHA TOWN ~J VILLAGE~”, 21/09/2024
J Village, Naraha Town, Fukushima

1. Falls Count Anywhere 10-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO, Shunma Katsumata, To-y & Yuki Ishida Vs Chris Brookes, Danshoku Dieno, Yukio Naya, Keigo Nakamura & Kazuma Sumi

DDT’s crew are going to cause some chaos over in To-y’s neck of the woods. He is still serving as an unofficial ambassador for Naraha Town in order to pay off the trillion yen debt he owes to the area. At least the rest of The 37KAMIINA are helping him out along with Ishida for a big Falls Count Anywhere match.

GANBARE☆PRO “KATTENI-SHIYAGARE 2024”, 23/09/2024
Yokohama Radiant Hall

1. Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami Vs Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox
2. PSYCHO, Rekka & HARUKAZE Vs London Machine, Choun-Shiryu & Tsukina Umino
3. Yuna Manase & YuuRI Vs Moeka Haruhi & Maya Yukihi
4. Hartley Jackson Vs Yumehito Imanari
5. Ken Ohka, Shuichiro Katsumura & Mizuki Watase Vs Tyson Maeguchi, Thanomsak Toba & Kouki Iwasaki
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Takuya Wada

The postponed Spirit Of Ganbare World Title match has been rescheduled for 23rd September in Yokohama. That is the only surviving match from the show that was cancelled last month. Everything else on this card are new matches.

Tsukina Umino is from Ice Ribbon. She recently fought and lost to YuuRI in a match for the ICExInfinity Title. One of her teammates is London Machine, a masked gimmick that has mostly appeared in ChocoPro. I think in one of his first appearances it was Seiya Morohashi under the mask but I don’t know if it’s been him every time.
