With Cody Hall now gone from DDT, the matches he was originally booked in for the rest of this month are getting replacements. Keigo Nakamura will now take on Tomomitsu Matsunaga in the opener.

DDT “INTO THE FIGHT 2020”, 23/02/2020

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine

The big change is with the KO-D Tag Team Titles match. The match was going to be cancelled until Danshoku Dieno got Super Sasadango Machine to team with him because he is “big and fit” like his last tag partner. Dieno said despite the twists and turns this week, his ambition has not changed. He still intends to win as many DDT championships as he can.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STAND PROUD”, 01/03/2020
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Natsumi Maki
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Maki Itoh & Raku
3. International Princess Title: Thunder Rosa (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

Raku now has a win under her belt and she got it at Miu Watanabe’s expense. With Maki Itoh’s guidance she also wants the Princess Tag Team Titles too. Itoh agreed to team with her because she wants to see if her hard head is tougher than Rika Tatsumi’s ass.

Miyu Yamashita and Natsumi Maki continue their series of singles matches. Yamashita was happy with Maki’s performance in their previous match. Now she will see if Maki has gotten even better in the third match.

Yuka Sakazaki will not be at the show. The popular guess online as to why is she may be on the next AEW PPV happening in Chicago the same weekend.

DDT “KAZUKI HIRATA 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW! 10 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 14/03/2020
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

6. Special 8-Man Dokken Battle!: HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano & Naoki Tanizaki Vs Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo, Mad Paulie & Hiroshi Yamato
7. Synchronized Reunion! 10 Years OF HIRATA GO!: Kazuki Hirata & Keisuke Ishii Vs YO-HEY & Kenshin Chikano

The revival of NωA attracted the attention of Kazuki Hirata. They used to feud with Hirata and the rest of T2Hide. They are not around anymore so Hirata is sending FUMA and Nautilus after them.

BOYZ “BE AMBITIOUS! 2020”, 26/04/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 2F Hall

1. Makorin Contra Makorin ~ 2 Vs 2 Vs 1 Handicap 3 Way Tag Match: Danshoku Dieno & Akito Vs Shunma Katsumata & MAO Vs Makoto Oishi

The last BOYZ show ended with Makoto Oishi stuck in the middle of a new idol rivalry. Both Homoiro Clover Z and NωA have come back. Oishi is a vital member of both groups and can’t decide who to choose. The answer is to have the two groups fight over him. But in a twist he will have to be in the fight too! He is going into this match on his own, representing the combined entity that is HomoωA.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~” Results

February 11, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 11/02/2020
Kitazawa Town Hall
270 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Hyper Misao & Nodoka Tenma defeated Yuna Manase & Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Kiryu with the Hipami Returns (7:36).
2. Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko defeated Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Kamifuku when Aino pinned Kamifuku with the Venus DDT (8:47).
3. Mina Shirakawa Spain Send Off Match: Miyu Yamashita defeated Mina Shirakawa with the Attitude Adjustment (10:33).
4. Maki Itoh, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume when Raku pinned Watanabe with the Doctor Yellow (14:01).
5. Natsumi Maki & Hikari Noa defeated Mizuki & Mirai Maiumi when Maki pinned Maiumi with the Backlash (12:50).
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Lana Austin with the Magical Magical Girl Splash (10:48).
*V2 for Yuka Sakazaki.

The series between Yuka Sakazaki and Lana Austin ends with Sakazaki still holding the Princess Of Princess Title. Sakazaki has gotten to know Austin so much after their matches together and hopes they will interact again in the future. Now that she has successfully defended her title twice, Sakazaki’s love for the belt has grown deeper. Her next goal as champion is to defend the title in Tampa at the Tokyo Joshi Pro USA show this April. She wants to fight the best wrestlers no matter where they come from. Doesn’t matter if they are Japanese, American, British or even aliens from outer space.

Raku wins a match for the first time ever thanks to some new moves added to her repertoire. She used a Sling Blade on Miu Watanabe then pinned her with a Jumping Swinging Neckbreaker called the Doctor Yellow. Maki Itoh congratulated her but said if Raku wants to be like her then she should not be satisfied with just one win. Raku agreed and challenged Daydream to a Princess Tag Team Titles match! Rika Tatsumi accepted but needed to know who Raku would team with. Itoh said she would do it so everyone will find out what is stronger, her head or Tatsumi’s ass. Tatsumi was insulted and said her ass is a diamond. Raku thanked the fans for supporting her so far. They are her treasure and she wouldn’t be standing here without them. Itoh informed Raku that a special training regime for the match begins tomorrow.

The lesson Mina Shirakawa learned from her match against Miyu Yamashita was that wrestlers who focus on a particular move can be really strong, like Yamashita and her Spin Kicks for example. When they first met 5 years ago, Shirakawa was only at the show to perform a musical number as part of P-Samba. Now they’re having matches together and travelling around the world to wrestle.

Nodoka Tenma brought a giant chocolate bar to the ring as a gift for Hyper Misao because it was their first time teaming together. Also it is nearly Valentine’s Day. Misao reacted badly because Valentine’s Day gave her trauma. When Misao was 15 there was a boy she liked named Yamamoto. On Valentine’s Day she saw a cute girl confess her love to Yamamoto inside an empty classroom and the bitter memory has stuck with her ever since. Yuna Manase would happily take the chocolate if Misao couldn’t take it. Mahiro Kiryu then had an idea. The best way for Misao to get over her Valentine’s trauma is to feed her the chocolate! Tenma fed her a piece and Misao became revitalised. The plan worked too well because Misao then shouted “Happy Valentine!” after every move until she pinned Kiryu with the Hipami Returns.

Tokyo Joshi will put together a free show for women only in Itabashi Green Hall on 26th April.

February 8, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 08/02/2020
Aichi NGK Sports Plaza 3rd Stadium
248 Fans

1. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Haruna Neko defeated Mizuki, Suzume & Sena Shiori when Nakajima pinned Suzume with the Northern Lights Suplex (10:16).
2. Yuna Manase & Mirai Maiumi defeated Hyper Misao & Pom Harajuku when Manase pinned Harajuku with the Suzuki Dynamic (7:42).
3. Miu Watanabe defeated Raku with the Tear Drop (8:30).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa defeated Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu when Shirakawa pinned Kiryu with the Implant DDT (10:36).
5. Saki Akai defeated Hikari Noa with a Triangle Choke (9:09).
6. Miyu Yamashita defeated Natsumi Maki with the Backward Kick (9:24).
7. Yuka Sakazaki & Maki Itoh defeated Lana Austin & Yuki Aino when Sakazaki pinned Aino with the Magical Girl Splash (9:51).

Losing a tooth in Alabama is not getting Yuka Sakazaki down. She’s still winning matches and letting Lana Austin know what she is getting into when the Princess Of Princess Title match takes place next Tuesday. Austin has a few tricks of her own though. She caught the opposing team off guard when she used Maki Itoh as a launching step to hit Sakazaki with the Poetry In Motion. Yuki Aino tried to capitalize but Sakazaki took over and got the victory.

In the rematch between Miyu Yamashita and Natsumi Maki, Yamashita wasted no time in testing her opponent. Maki was more motivated today and put up a better fight. But Yamashita came out the winner again, this time using the Backward Kick for the pin. After today’s match Yamashita is now satisfied and thinks she fought the proper version of Natsumi Maki. The match was so much fun this time around that Yamashita wants another rematch, this time in Tokyo. Maki likes the idea. She still wants to beat Yamashita using her own one of a kind techniques.

Saki Akai praised Hikari Noa for putting up a good fight against her. Noa had Akai grounded with the Cobra Twist but Akai countered it into a Triangle Choke to get the win.

Raku wasn’t able to get her first win today. She was left feeling a little frustrated after losing to Miu Watanabe.

Rumours went around that an agent for a nearby fashion show was in the audience. Yuna Manase, Mirai Maiumi, Hyper Misao and Pom Harajuku all made poses during their match in the hopes of getting noticed. Even the referee was tempted to strut across the ring. It turned out to be a trap for Misao & Harajuku to ambush Manase & Maiumi but it didn’t work out in the end.

In the opening match Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Haruna Neko were put on the same team because they are all under 150cm in height.

MAO’s Thoughts On Tanaka, Hole Brothers Chasing Gold, STRONGHEARTS/DAMNATION Further Their Alliance

February 4, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 08/02/2020

4. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Haruna Neko Vs Mizuki, Suzume & Sena Shiori

7. Yuka Sakazaki & Maki Itoh Vs Lana Austin & Yuki Aino

Yuka Sakazaki will be wrestling on AEW Dynamite tomorrow night. She’ll be back in Japan this weekend to prepare for her another preview match against Lana Austin.

Raku begins her quest to win a match. Miu Watanabe won’t go light on her just because they are both Up Up Girls.

A bunch of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster had cameos on the latest episode of the CBS cop drama S.W.A.T. I’m not making this up. Miyu Yamashita fights a detective inside Robot Restaurant while Shoko Nakajima tries to pull a gun on the guy from Better Off Ted. I swear I’m not making this up!

6. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Chris Brookes
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Masato Tanaka (c) Vs MAO

MAO said he is honored to be competing for the KO-D Openweight Title less than 5 years into his pro wrestling career. Masato Tanaka has been wrestling since before MAO was born. MAO saw him for the first time on TV Asahi’s “World Pro Wrestling” television program back in 2010. He thinks Tanaka is one of the people who made him dream of becoming a pro wrestler so this will be a very special match. Also MAO believes the core of DDT is now made up of the DNA generation with Konosuke Takeshita and Tetsuya Endo right in the centre. Winning the KO-D Title will make MAO join the centre. Tanaka wants MAO to deliver his strange brand of wrestling because he does not want to lose against that style.

The #STRONGHEARTS return to continue their business partnership with DAMNATION. They face ALL OUT with their honorary member Chihiro Hashimoto in an Elimination Tag match. Hopefully Yuki Iino has gotten over his problems with Hashimoto. Also Shunma Katsumata is back from his minor surgery. Elsewhere CIMA teams up with Soma Takao, who used to wrestle as BIMA in his college club days.

DDT “ISN’T IT DRAMATIC 2020”, 24/02/2020
Nagoya City East Sports Center

1. Saki Akai “Okibariyasu” 7 Match Series – 4th Match – Rocky Of Naniwa II Vs Human Torpedo II: Saki Akai Vs Miranda Gordy
2. DDT Senbatsu-gun Vs Nagoya & Kengo Takai-gun: X & X Vs Kengo Takai & X
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Cody Hall

Hall joined forces with Danshoku Dieno to form The Hole Brothers. This is all part of Dieno’s plan to win every championship he can in DDT. The first target in his sight is the KO-D Tag Titles held by Nautilus.

A sudden challenge has been made by Nagoya wrestler Kengo Takai. He is bringing a team with him to take on a selection of DDT wrestlers.

DDT “DRAMATIC RED READY! 2020”, 01/03/2020
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

1. Yuni Kid Wrestler Graduation Match: Yuni Vs X
2. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Konosuke Takeshita, Shunma Katsumata & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo, T-Hawk & El Lindaman

The #STRONGHEARTS/DAMNATION alliance continue with a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles shot. This all seems to be Tetsuya Endo’s idea. His work with T-Hawk & El Lindaman lately has worked out so far.

CIMA and Maku Donaruto will be on the show. Put them in the same match. Don’t put Donaruto with Yuni!

DDT “KAZUKI HIRATA 10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW! 10 YEARS OF HIRATA GO!!”, 14/03/2020
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

1. Unusual Junior And Unusual Junior And Takeshita: Konosuke Takeshita Vs Maku Donaruto Vs Best Stretchman V3

4. Synchronized Reunion! 10 Years OF HIRATA GO!: Kazuki Hirata & Keisuke Ishii Vs YO-HEY & Kenshin Chikano

I should figure out how long Kazuki Hirata has been doing his gimmick for. Is it longer than Magnum TOKYO at this point?

Katsumi Tamagawa will be the referee for the main event.

FUMA, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and Kouki Iwasaki will be on the show.

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Natsumi Maki

The first meeting was a decisive win for Miyu Yamashita. She welcomes the rematch with Natsumi Maki but only if Maki is fully motivated for it. Whether it is because of ring rust or a mental block, the version of Maki she defeated was not the one who was top tier in the roster before her injury.

Saki Akai will be on the show.

Sadly Katsumata is currently out of action getting a metal plate removed from his cheekbone so he has to miss this one.

GAKE NO FUCHI JOSHI PRO “GAKEPPUCHI SNOW WHITE 2020”, 12/03/2020
Saitama Wrestle Arena

1. Miyako Matsumoto (w/ Ippanjin Munenori Sawa) Vs Chikara (w/ Mao)

The theme of Gake no Fuchi in 2020 is “I Want To Help Those Who Are In Need With Pro Wrestling”. Miyako Matsumoto is continuing this theme by using pro wrestling to find a potential bride for Chikara. This came about when Chikara took part in a rap battle and owned himself by admitting he can’t get married. The “bride” in question is Mao from the idol group Senosister. She describes herself as the Atsushi Onita of the idol world, having attended a Super FMW show in 2016 and getting Onita’s “holy water” thrown at her. She saw a picture of Chikara and was turned off because he looks like her uncle. Nevertheless, she agreed to attend the next show because her rent is due and she wants the money. Munenori Sawa was also invited to help out.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~” Results

January 25, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 WINTER ~WONDERFUL HARMONY~”, 25/01/2020
Osaka City Higashinari Ward Center
270 Fans

1. Osaka Sannin Matsuri – Round 1: Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku defeated Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Harajuku with the Uranage (8:07).
2. Osaka Sannin Matsuri – Round 1: Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Rika Tatsumi defeated Mirai Maiumi, Suzume & Sena Shiori when Sakazaki pinned Suzume with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (9:58).
3. La Jarochita defeated Akemi Daredasore with the Blizzard Suplex (4:17).
4. Dalys defeated Maki Itoh with La Magistral Cradle (6:07).
5. Osaka Sannin Matsuri – Semi Final: Yuna Manase, Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa defeated Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku when Manase pinned Raku with the Suzuki Dynamic (7:26).
6. Osaka Sannin Matsuri – Semi Final: Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Rika Tatsumi when Nakajima pinned Mizuki with a School Boy (9:20).
7. Miyu Yamashita defeated Natsumi Maki with the Attitude Adjustment (11:43).
8. Osaka Sannin Matsuri – Final: Yuna Manase, Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa defeated Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino when Kamifuku pinned Aino with the Fame Asser (9:15).

Cat’s Pye are the last trio standing, eliminating the Up Up Girls and the Tokyo Joshi Special Effects Club to win the Osaka Sannin Matsuri tournament. The crowning moment came when Yuki Kamifuku jumped off the 2nd rope for the first time to hit a Fame Asser on Yuki Aino. After today’s result, Yuna Manase next wants to win a championship. A shot for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles was suggested but Mina Shirakawa would rather see Tokyo Joshi Pro have their own trios championship with Cat’s Pye becoming the first holders.

Rika Tatsumi & Mizuki were not on the same page at all in their matches. In their first match, Mizuki angrily Dropkicked Tatsumi after Tatsumi accidentally broke up a Yuka Sakazaki pinfall. Then in the semi final there was a moment where the Magical Sugar Rabbits both climbed the same corner for a double team dive. Tatsumi got jealous, climbed the same turnbuckles and pushed Sakazaki off. Tatsumi then went for the Diving Missile Hip Attack but missed the target and hit Mizuki instead. Another misdirected Hip Attack to Mizuki led to Shoko Nakajima pinning her with the School Boy.

Miyu Yamashita would like to have a rematch with Natsumi Maki when Maki is back to her pre-injury form. She explained the difference between Maki today and Maki before her injury is not physically defined. It is a matter of feeling. She couldn’t sense much feelings from Maki in the ring today. Yamashita doesn’t want to fight people who are not motivated. Maki was also dissatisfied with today’s match. She wants to wrestle Yamashita again and continue having matches together until she beats her.

Dalys pinned Maki Itoh when Itoh missed the Flying Big Head.

Akemi Daredasore gifted La Jarochita with a good luck talisman before their match. Daisuke Kiso held signs written in Spanish so Jarochita could understand what Daredasore was talking about. It was all just a set up for Daredasore to ambush her. Jarochita dodged the I Am A Hero and won the match with the Blizzard Suplex.
