TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『 』~” Results

July 25, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『　　　』~”, 25/07/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
110 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Shoko Nakajima defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Northern Lights Suplex (6:16).
2. Miyu Yamashita & Nodoka Tenma defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Himawari Unagi when Yamashita submitted Kiryu with the Modified Cobra Clutch (7:24).
3. Quiz Shiorinaire: Hyper Misao defeated Sena Shiori with the USI (10:58).
4. Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi defeated Maki Itoh & Pom Harajuku when Shirakawa pinned Harajuku with the Implant DDT (11:29).
5. Yuki Aino & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Rika Tatsumi & Haruna Neko when Aino pinned Neko with the Venus DDT (13:11).
6. Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Suzume when Noa pinned Suzume with the Uranage (13:43).

The day has finally come. The Up Up Girls closed out a Tokyo Joshi Pro show as the main event winners! The win was over a team that had The Magical Sugar Rabbits in it too. Hikari Noa said today’s win gives her, Miu Watanabe and Raku confidence going into the Tokyo Princess Cup. They will go crazy in the tournament this year!

Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi named their team Minato Mirai.

A special 2 Count Handicap was put on the Sena Shiori Vs Hyper Misao match. Shiori only needed to pin Misao for a 2 Count to win. If Misao got at least a 2 Count then she had to correctly answer a quiz question to win. Misao was also allowed a lifeline if she got a 3 Count. The questions asked by Tetsuya Koda were all about Shiori. Misao quickly pinned Shiori with a Cradle from a Handshake. “What move was used to end Shiori’s debut match?” Misao answered Dropkick but was wrong. Misao got a 2 Count from a School Boy. “What is Shiori’s date of birth?” Misao answered 14th September, 2002 but was wrong. Misao did another School Boy and this time got a 3 Count. “Where did Shiori go with her friend Hikari Noa to celebrate her birthday?” Misao was allowed a lifeline so she used Noa as her Phone A Friend. Noa hinted it was a theme park in Osaka. Misao answered Universal Studios Japan but was wrong. She yelled at Noa for giving her a bad hint. Misao went back and got a 2 Count pin. “What martial art did Shiori learn in elementary school?” Misao said Kyodo but was wrong once again. Shiori gained control of the match until Misao knocked over the referee. Shiori had Misao pinned but no ref was around to count it. Misao regained control and got a 2 Count with the Hyper Gotham Crash. “Where did Shiori go with her friend Hikari Noa to celebrate her debut match?” Misao thought about it and answered Universal Studios Japan again. She was correct which means she wins the match!

Himawari Unagi got to wrestle Miyu Yamashita for the first time since their match last October where Unagi got injured.

The ring announcer Sayuri Namba received some great news at the start of the show. She entered a competition to become a RIZIN round girl but was eliminated early on. Well today she found out she won a poll out of the eliminated contestants to re-enter the contest! She hopes to become a round girl and get RIZIN to promote Tokyo Joshi Pro in the process.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~” Results

July 23, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~”, 23/07/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
490 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Moka Miyamoto Debut Match: Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori defeated Moka Miyamaoto & Suzume when Maiumi pinned Miyamoto with a Lariat (8:25).
2. Himawari Unagi Return Match: Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Himawari Unagi & Haruna Neko when Harajuku pinned Unagi with the Pom do Justice (8:18).
3. Hikari Noa defeated Raku with the Uranage (7:24).
4. Mina Shirakawa defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the GSS (8:20).
5. Yuna Manase Regular Participation Last Match: Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Natsumi Maki defeated Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Maki Itoh when Yamashita pinned Tenma with the Crash Rabbit Heat (16:06).
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Tatsumi pinned Misao with the Missile Hip (13:50).
*V3 for Daydream.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Yuki Aino with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (18:00).
*V3 for Yuka Sakazaki.

The world of Tokyo Joshi Pro is constantly evolving. Yuka Sakazaki proved that by doing a 450 version of the Magical Girl Splash to beat Yuki Aino. Even Sakazaki herself was surprised by how far she flew with that move. She said after the match that she shouldn’t be stagnant in situations like these which is why she used what is now called the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro. She celebrated in the ring with Mizuki to close out the show. Sakazaki’s next goal is to win the Tokyo Princess Cup so she can continue her title reign without having any further challengers.

Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao pulled out all the stops in their attempt to win the Princess Tag Team Titles. It’s been six months since TJPW was in Korakuen Hall so the two of them wanted to give everyone a fun and exciting pro wrestling match. The most exciting thing they could think of was beating Daydream by any means necessary! Misao used cold spray to blind Miu Watanabe and taped her feet to the corner post so she was left hanging outside the ring. Misao brought out her bicycle and tried to run Watanabe over but Watanabe lifted herself up and Misao crashed into the railing. Nakajima filled the ring with kaiju toys but she was slammed on top of them by Watanabe. She used the Tear Drop on Nakajima, leaving Rika Tatsumi to scoop up the win by hitting Misao with the Missile Hip Attack. The champions agreed it was a really fun match.

Yuna Manase has bid farewell to Tokyo Joshi. She won’t be gone forever but her future lies elsewhere. In the final moments of her match, Manase took a Skull Kick from Miyu Yamashita. There were no hard feelings over it, they hugged after the match. Manase hugged Mizuki and Natsumi Maki too. She said she loved being inside the Tokyo Joshi ring. She will definitely come back again someday and when she does she will be able to fight on a higher level.

Jealousy reared its ugly head within Cat’s Pye, causing Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa to face off in a Gravure Wrestler Showdown. Shirakawa won the match with her Glamorous Strong Style Facebuster. There was a tense moment afterwards when Kamifuku hesitated shaking Shirakawa’s hand. But she did so and and two friends left the ring together. Kamifuku said in a backstage interview that she wants to learn more about pro wrestling now she has been doing it for four years. Shirakawa has been inspired by Jushin Liger but he doesn’t match Kamifuku’s taste. So Kamifuku is going to start watching Shuji Ishikawa matches from All Japan.

The other two thirds of The Up Up Girls had a singles match together. Raku came close to a win with the Doctor Yellow. Hikari Noa hit back with a Lariat and won with the Uranage. The result has only motivated Raku to try even harder for her first singles win.

Himawari Unagi returned to the ring for her first match in nine and a half months. She had a new costume and new entrance music for her comeback match. She reunited with three of the other HiSPC wrestlers, teaming with Haruna Neko to wrestle Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu. Neko got rid of Kiryu with the Codebreaker but Unagi couldn’t seal the deal. Harajuku hit the Pom do Justice to end Unagi’s return with a loss.

The newest Tokyo Joshi debut is Moka Miyamoto. She majored in Japanese Culture at university which is why she wrestled in a hakama. Suzume was there to help out but most of the match was Miyamoto trying to fight off Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori.

There will be 21 women entering this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. The full list is Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Shoko Nakajima, Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Natsumi Maki, Mizuki, Hyper Misao, Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino, Hikari Noa, Raku, Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa, Haruna Neko, Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Himawari Unagi, Mirai Maiumi and Suzume.

The Tokyo Dome City Hall show will go ahead on 7th November. At the moment they are permitted to set up the venue to 50% capacity.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『 』~” Results

July 12, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『　　　』~”, 12/07/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
108 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Natsumi Maki defeated Sena Shiori with the Backlash (6:42).
2. 3 Way Match: Maki Itoh defeated Haruna Neko and Suzume when Itoh submitted Neko with the Itoh Deluxe (8:34).
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa defeated Miyu Yamashita & Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Fame Asser (10:33).
4. Yuna Manase & Hikari Noa defeated Miu Watanabe & Raku when Manase pinned Raku with the Suzuki Dynamic (10:12).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Kiryu with La Magistral Cradle (12:15).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Yuki Aino & Mirai Maiumi when Sakazaki pinned Maiumi with the Magical Girl Splash (14:12).

The main event had Yuka Sakazaki and Yuki Aino squaring off in preparation for Korakuen Hall later this month. Their attention to each other split off to the other wrestlers in the match. Aino gave Mizuki her new UBV finisher then left it to Mirai Maiumi to take care of Sakazaki. That was a fatal mistake because Sakazaki gave Mirai the Magical Merry-Go-Round then pinned her with the Magical Girl Splash. Mizuki admitted to Sakazaki after the match that Aino is dangerous. The Magical Sugar Rabbits have to be even more alert against her.

If Shoko Nakajima is teaming with Hyper Misao then she may as well learn to cheat like her too. During their match they brought Rika Tatsumi over to her cornergirl Miu Watanabe at ringside and taped the two together back to back. Tatsumi had to get back inside the ring with Watanabe taped to her but they were able to cooperate and even use themselves as a weapon. When Daisuke Kiso tried to free Daydream from the tape, Nakajima & Misao used the numbers advantage against Mahiro Kiryu. Misao purposely loosened her mask so Kiryu would pull it off by accident, Nakajima hit Kiryu with the 619 after the distraction and Misao got the pin with La Magistral Cradle.

Yuna Manase thanked the Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) for wrestling with her one last time before she ends her regular Tokyo Joshi Pro participation. She got permission from them to give an idol style introduction for the audience and also perform “Upper Kick” with the group. She said her Up Up Girls name would have been Mamamama Manase.

Trouble is brewing with Pink Ready. At the start of the show it was announced Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa will have a singles match against each other on 23rd July. They were on opposite sides in a tag match today and Kamifuku won out. Shirakawa told Kamifuku she is determined to win at Korakuen. Kamifuku said she is sorry to see her friend act this way but she won’t lose to her.

Maki Itoh tried to literally sit out of the 3 Way Match by resting on the top turnbuckle. She’s a big star so she would only fight the winner between Haruna Neko and Suzume. Those two got fed up with Itoh’s behaviour and attacked her instead. Itoh blocked Suzume’s Diving Cross Body with a Headbutt then countered Neko’s Codebreaker into the Itoh Deluxe to win.

Nodoka Tenma had to miss the show due to a case of strep throat.

6. Konosuke Takeshita Vs Yukio Naya
7. DAMNATION Vs DISASTER BOX!: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Soma Takao Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ueno & Kazuki Hirata

Yesterday was eventful for HARASHIMA. He is normally a very private person away from wrestling but he announced he recently got married! Oh and yesterday was also his 46th birthday. Again, information that wasn’t publicly known until now. So yeah, things are going swell for him at the moment.

BASARA “BASARA 129 ~BANQUET~”, 14/07/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & SAGAT Vs Masato Kamino & Tetsuo Usui
2. FUMA & Yusuke Kubo Vs Daichi Kazato & Leo Isaka

6. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Isami Kodaka

It’s been very quiet on the BASARA front for the last few weeks. They haven’t been posting much news on their website. Instead their priority was running the Clutch bar in Shinjuku. Well this week they have plenty to talk about. The Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament is coming back but first they have a Banquet show to get through. The IRON FIST TAG Titles match is now also a Pro Wrestling Trial with Ryuchi Sekine going to court.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~”, 23/07/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Aona Debut Match: Aona Vs X
2. Himawari Unagi Return Match: Himawari Unagi Vs X
3. Yuna Manase Regular Participation Last Match: Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Maki Itoh Vs Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Natsumi Maki
4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
5. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Yuki Aino

Yuki Aino won the No. 1 Contender match to earn the Princess Of Princess Title shot. Beating Yuka Sakazaki for the title would be a tremendous way to cap off the last few months for her.

What a powerful force Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao can be together. The kaiju and superhero might be the strongest combination around to take the Princess Tag Titles from Daydream.

Yuna Manase has decided to end her regular participation with Tokyo Joshi Pro on 23rd July. Manase has been wrestling for TJPW since 2017 and in the last year reached several achievements. She made it to the final of the Tokyo Princess Cup and won the International Princess Title. However she couldn’t win the Princess Cup final and failed to defend the International Title even once. Her wrestling career began in Stardom, went to Actwres girl’Z and ended up in TJPW. All three companies mean a lot to Manase so she spoke to Rossy Ogawa, Tetsuya Koda and Keiji Sakaguchi before making this decision. She does not want to quit pro wrestling but she understands she is in the latter stages of her career. The time has come for her to try something new yet she hasn’t decided on what her future will be past the 23rd.

DDT “SUMMER VACATION 2020”, 23/07/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Soma Takao & Mad Paulie Vs Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura
2. Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Seigo Tachibana
3. Chris Brookes & Drew Parker Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Nobuhiro Shimatani
4. Akiyama-gun Vs ALL OUT All Out Battle!: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs Konosuke Takeshita, Akito, Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Iino
5. DDT Extreme Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Maku Donaruto
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai (c) Vs HARASHIMA, Antonio Honda & Riho
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Yuki Ueno

I don’t know what goes on in Shinya Aoki’s mind. He chose Maku Donaruto as his next DDT Extreme Title challenger. What must he be thinking to do with him?

Akiyama-gun have been training for the 8-Man Tag against ALL OUT. Their latest session also included Yukio Naya and Keigo Nakamura as sparring partners. Hideki Okatani said he is learning a lot of details from Jun Akiyama in a way that is different from when he was a trainee. Mizuki Watase said he would like to use the Front Neck Lock the same way Akiyama does it. Makoto Oishi is also eager to wrestle like his coach does. Akiyama joked that the entire group is cohesive except for Oishi. One last thing, Akiyama-gun are looking for an official unit name and have asked fans to come out with one. They will pick a name in time for the Korakuen Hall show.

DDT “BEER GARDEN-LIKE PRO WRESTLING 2020 DAY 1”, 30/07/2020
Shinjuku FACE

1. Super Sasadango Machine Produce Match: X Vs X

Shinjuku FACE

1. Danshoku Dieno Produce Match: X Vs X

Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Falls Count Anywhere Tornado Gake no Fuchi Hardcore Special Tag Match: Miyako Matsumoto & Chris Brookes Vs Drew Parker & Rina Yamashita

Gake no Fuchi Joshi has urgently decided to hold a show in front of an audience against later this summer. This is the brand’s first show in Shinjuku FACE so the big match being made is Miyako Matsumoto & Chris Brookes Vs Drew Parker & Rina Yamashita! Matsumoto’s goal is to draw more fans than the DDT show taking place in the same venue later that night.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STAND PROUD” Results

July 4, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STAND PROUD”, 04/07/2020
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
192 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori defeated Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Noa pinned Harajuku with the Uranage (7:14).
2. Miyu Yamashita defeated Haruna Neko with a Right High Kick (6:23).
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Yuna Manase & Nodoka Tenma when Sakazaki pinned Tenma with the Mil Clutch α (10:23).
4. Natsumi Maki defeated Suzume with the Backlash (7:02).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi when Misao pinned Maiumi with La Magistral Cradle (10:05).
6. Princess Of Princess Title Challenger Match: Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the UBV (9:19).
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Maki Itoh & Raku when Watanabe pinned Raku with the Tear Drop (15:22).
*V2 for Daydream.

After a 4 month wait, the Princess Tag Team Titles were finally defended again. Daydream earned their second defence by beating Maki Itoh & Raku in the main event. Miu Watanabe was put in danger when Itoh gave her a Swinging DDT and Raku followed up with the Doctor Yellow. Watanabe kicked out though and turned things around to win the match with the Tear Drop. She was happy to wrestle against Raku in a title match because they both work so hard to be here. Rika Tatsumi said she wanted strong opponents for their next defence at Korakuen Hall. Out came Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao! Nakajima explained she was supposed to have an International Princess Title match in America but that was cancelled. So she now wants to fight for the Tag Titles instead. Misao is teaming with her because Misao cannot think of anything more exciting than the two of them fighting against Daydream for the belts.

We now have the next challenger for the Princess Of Princess Title for 23rd July. Yuki Aino used a High Angle Double Arm Suplex to beat Yuki Kamifuku after a few close shaves. The move is called “UBV” but it also has an alternate name called “Infinite Love And Fire”. Aino called out Yuka Sakazaki after the match. Aino told her she isn’t just challenging her for the Princess Title, she is going to win it! Sakazaki said Aino has no future if she doesn’t push herself further in their title match.

Natsumi Maki painted “Poi” onto her face correctly this time.

Himawari Unagi has her return match on 23rd July. She had been out of action for around 9 months. She sees herself starting from the bottom again because there are now wrestlers on the roster who had their debuts during her absence.

Money In The Bag Participants, June’s Title Matches, Stand Proud In July

June 16, 2020

DDT “MONEY IN THE BAG ~TOSOCHU~”, 19/06/2020
Tokyo Chateau Amoeba Studio

1. Money In The Bag Match: HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno & Konosuke Takeshita Vs Atsushi Onita, Shinya Aoki, Yoshiko, Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Ueno, Naomi Yoshimura, Akito, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Iino, Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi, Saki Akai, Chris Brookes, Sanshiro Takagi, Makoto Oishi, Super Sasadango Machine, MAO, Mizuki Watase, Yukio Naya, Keigo Nakamura, Gota Ihashi, Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa & Seigo Tachibana

This is not an accurate listing explaining what the Money In The Bag match is but I don’t know how else to write it. HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno & Konosuke Takeshita will be going through DDT’s version of a TV game show called Tosochu Run For Money. They will fight through multiple floors of the Chateau Amoeba Studio looking for a bag containing prize money. There are wrestlers located on every floor acting as hunters tasked with stopping the contestants. What I don’t know is if HARASHIMA, Dieno and Takeshita are teaming together, competing solo against each other or captaining their own teams. But if you’ve seen previous Street Wrestling shows held in corporate buildings then you know what to expect. Each floor will pretty much be a different match building up to the finale.

The guests showing up include Atsushi Onita, Shinya Aoki, Yoshiko (I hear she’s become big on TikTok) and Seigo Tachibana (still looking for a job).

There is the added stipulation where if the champions win then Saki Akai will have to kneel down to El Lindaman, ask him how he got so big and then lick his boots.

It’s not just the youngsters who are interested in being coached by Jun Akiyama during his stay here. Makoto Oishi also wants to walk down the Royal Road. The only downside is he has to fight Akiyama when he originally wanted to team with him. It’s going to be more painful this way.

Chris Brookes has to make some unlikely short term alliances in order to fight DAMNATION for now.

DDT “DDT TV SHOW! #8”, 27/06/2020
Shinjuku FACE

1. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Chris Brookes
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Nobuhiro Shimatani

Then next week there is two more title matches. Yuki Ueno has become a thorn in Endo’s side recently and was seconds away from beating him in the trios main event a few days ago. However Endo defended the KO-D Openweight Title against him so it’s his turn to call the shots. Endo chose Nobuhiro Shimatani to team with him and take the KO-D Tag Team Titles away from Nautilus.

Sasaki’s attempt to ice the DDT UNIVERSAL Title backfired. He nominated Masahiro Takanashi as his next challenger knowing he is many months away from recovery. That way Sasaki wouldn’t have to defend the title any time soon. Takanashi eventually accepted but nominated his friend Brookes to wrestle in his place. This finally gets Brookes his singles rematch with the man who took the title from him.

Jun Akiyama will be on the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STAND PROUD”, 04/07/2020
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Maki Itoh & Raku

Raku’s in-ring ability was progressing nicely before the lockdown. She added the Doctor Yellow to her arsenal and formed a winning team with Maki Itoh. They were supposed to get a Princess Tag Team Titles match against Daydream back in March but it got cancelled. Both teams agreed to do the match eventually but wanted it on an important show. The return to Ryogoku KFC Hall in July fits the bill.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KOKO NI IRUZEE!”, 13/06/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

2. Hyper Misao defeated Haruna Neko with the I Am A Hero (6:36).

The women of Tokyo Joshi Pro welcomed fans back to shows for the first time in almost four months. The audience was limited to 82 fans today but the wrestlers hope that gradually it will safely increase and the company can grow again. Miyu Yamashita was happy for the first show back to take place in Itabashi Green Hall because the venue has hosted the most TJPW shows. Nodoka Tenma described the show as both a restart and a reunion. Yuki Aino wants to protect it.

Daydream now have a double team finish. The Daydream Eternity is a Canadian Backbreaker from Miu Watanabe passed into the Dragon Twist Of Fate from Rika Tatsumi. After Daydream’s win, Maki Itoh & Raku approached them as a reminder for their next Princess Tag Team Titles match. Both teams agreed to have the match on the 4th July Ryogoku KFC Hall show. Tatsumi said Daydream is not going to end. “Daydream is not dead!”

Hyper Misao wrestled wearing cat ears and a cat nose to understand her opponent Haruna Neko better. She acted like a cat for most of the match but eventually snapped out of it and went back to normal. When she was human again she was able to beat Neko.
