Although Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya lost to Touchable in the title match main event, they still have belief in their abilities to change Japan in a positive way with their pro wrestling. Moriya told Ohka they just need to energize and do their best.
After Match #4, Yuto Kikuchi gestured to Mizuki Watase that he wants to fight him for a championship next time. Watase signalled that he can fight him for either the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title or the King Of FREEDOM World Tag Team Titles.

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase defeated Masaaki Mochizuki (c) with the Bare Elbow (18:10). *Masaaki Mochizuki fails in V6. Mizuki Watase becomes the 10th Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion!
The reign of Masaaki Mochizuki has come to an end. Mizuki Watase is now a two time Spirit Of Ganbare World Champion! He took an early advantage when during a fight outside the ring, Mochizuki missed a kick and his leg made contact with the corner post. While that didn’t stop Mochizuki from throwing kicks, Watase taunted him by saying he will stand and take the blows until the leg breaks! Mochizuki went on to Middle Kick him 19 times before giving him the Twister but it only got him a two count. Watase went to use the Venetian but Mochizuki escaped and hit the Shin Saikyou High Kick. However Watase wasn’t knocked down by it and he hit back with an Elbow Strike followed by the Bare Elbow Strike, pinning Mochizuki down to the mat to get the pin and become champion again.
Watase was too beaten up to start talking immediately after the match so he allowed Mochizuki to speak first. Mochizuki said its been 10 months since his first match in Ganbare☆Pro and 6 months since he became the SOG Champion. He thanked the fans for cheering him on despite being an outsider and he values the enjoyable experience he’s had here. He though he would have held the SOG Title for the rest of his career but instead his mission ended today. He then wrapped the title belt around Watase and Watase thanked him for being a strong wall that made all of the GanPro wrestlers grow by fighting him. Watase told Michiyoshi Mishima he’s going to cause some trouble because he is booked for a death match in America this April (does he mean the Death Vegas Invitacional?) and he will bring the belt with him. But as long as he is here, GanPro will never die! All of the wrestlers celebrating him left the ring to end the show but Takuya Wada was the last one to get out. He made a signal to Watase that he wants to challenge him for the title.
Yuya Susumi returned to GanPro looking to get his singles match with Keisuke Ishii. He got the winning submission in his match then reappeared after Ishii’s match to confront him over the potential singles bout.

This will be the final time Tokyo Joshi Pro comes to Kobe Art Center. The venue will be going under changes and the planned finished layout is considered to be unsuitable for holding wrestling shows according to Tetsuya Koda. So in the future TJPW will be looking for another venue in Kobe to host Mizuki’s homecoming shows. Somehow I don’t expect the Ring Soul bar to be among the options.
The International Princess Title scene gathers together for an important preview match. The current champion MIRAI is hanging around for a while and is teaming with her previous challenger Toga. On the other team is MIRAI’s next challenger Suzume along with her Daisy Monkey partner and former champion Arisu Endo.

Junta Miyawaki continues to get in the ring with new faces during his stay in DDT. Next up for him is Yuni in a first time ever match up.

2. Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuni
3. Special Single Match: To-y Vs KANON
Since DDT is heading back to Osaka, that means Sanshiro Takagi & Rukiya get to reform their Toyonaka tag team. Due to injuries and other absences they haven’t been able to do this since 2024.

3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai
Well, Ober Eats said they wanted to face a tag team that are a big deal. They also said they want to have the best match on the show and er… yeah… it’s nice to want things. Anyway TJPW went and got The IInspiration to be Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara’s next challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles. The Australian pair of Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee were known as The IIconics in WWE before going to TNA with the name change. They won the women’s tag team championships in both companies and just recently signed a deal with AEW so they match the requirements Ober Eats were looking for.
The mascot Minimo-chan spent Monday training with Mahiro Kiryu for its upcoming pro wrestling debut. Super Sasadango Machine gave Minimo-chan the task of learning a special move but Kiryu was sceptical over the mascot’s ability to wrestle. Minimo-chan proved her wrong by running the ropes, doing Wrist Locks and even performing a Side Thrust Kick to the ribs with ease. It then told Kiryu that with this kick it will win its debut match in Sumo Hall! An interview was held after training where Minimo-chan revealed it used to watch All Japan VHS tapes over and over until they all wore out. Its favorite wrestlers are Steve Williams, Doug Furnas and Dan Kroffat. Minimo-chan also aims to eventually fight for a championship!
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 18/04/2026 TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi
How curious. The next TJPW Inspiration show will feature Rika Tatsumi, Mahiro Kiryu, Arisu Endo, Haru Kazashiro, Mifu Ashida, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase, Ren Konatsu and Shion Kanzaki on the card along with three guest wrestlers. While this is going on Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino and Toga will be in Las Vegas for Wrestlemania Weekend. Yamashita and Toga already have match bookings but the other three are so far only advertised for a meet and greet at WrestleCon. The mystery continues.
BASARA “BASARA 299 ~TAKAGARI 32~”, 11/02/2026 Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
1. Takeru Inoue Vs Yuki Ishida
2. SAGAT Vs Lil’ Kraken
3. Isami Kodaka & Ryuma Sekimo Vs Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano
4. Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino Vs FUMA & Seiya Morohashi
5. Shuji Ishikawa, Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
As long as Shuji Ishikawa hold the Union MAX Title, he is going to treat BASARA like a second home. He is currently scheduled to be on all of their shows for February and March.
The Super Family are hitting some sort of rough patch after failing to win the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on the last show. Lil’ Kraken wonders if they should split up but SAGAT still wants to team with him. After taking a day to think about it, the decision was made to have the two face each other in a singles bout. Is this just something to get their frustrations out or will it be a (super) family rift that cannot be healed?
Yuki Ishida from DDT makes another appearance here. He’ll take on BASARA’s young prospect Takeru Inoue in the opener.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 14/02/2026 Tokyo Korakuen Hall

6. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu (c) Vs Aja Kong
7. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Toga
8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Mizuki & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara
It’s new territory for the Max Heart Tournament because the current Princess Tag Team Champions have reached the final for the first time. Ober Eats are now just one win away from winning the whole thing and living up to the votes they got for the Best Tag Team category in the recent Tokyo Sports Awards. Meanwhile Mizuki & Uta Takami are on something of a miracle run as a tag team, although they want to prove they deserve to be here through hard work and well earned success instead of luck and good fortune.
There’s an alternate timeline where Daydream and Kyoto Tag could have been a semi final match in the tournament. Instead they’re facing each other on the undercard to help build up March’s Princess Of Princess Title match between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai.
Opponents have now become tag partners. Shoko Nakajima liked wrestling Sara Phoenix so much she wants to team with her. They may end up being a bounce back team for Daisy Monkey though.
A first win awaits for either Ren Konatsu or Shion Kanzaki.

This is the full card but the only confirmation of the match order is the opener and the main event. Yuki Ueno challenges Pokotan to a one on one battle while Akito returns to his rookie roots to wrestle as Akito Nishigaki once more. Also there is another Brahman Brother among us! Unless I’m reading the name wrong and it is Barman Sasaki instead of Brahman Sasaki.
GANBARE☆PRO “A SCANNER DARKLY 2026”, 22/02/2026 Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Mizuki Watase
The time has come for Mizuki Watase to challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title again. He won the title before against seemingly impossible odds and can repeat the feat if he can dethrone Masaaki Mochizuki.
GANBARE☆PRO “KINKI CHIHO NO ARU BASHO NI TSUITE 2026”, 01/03/2026 Osaka Hirano Community Hall
1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya
When a tag match pitting Touchable against Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya was put together for Ganbare☆Pro’s return to Osaka, Ohka asked for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles to be put on the line.
“GAISEN SAKURA PRO WRESTLING”, 11/04/2026 Okayama Shinjo Village

GANBARE☆PRO “NEW YEAR’S BLUES 2026”, 31/01/2026 Shin-Kiba 1st RING 185 Fans
1. Akira Shoji defeated Sentaro Motoshima with a Reverse Triangle Choke (5:29).
2. Hong Kong International Police Woman defeated Hong Kong International Police Man with the Ojosama Clutch (14:41).
3. Yuna Manase & YuuRI defeated Chanyota & Non Toraga when Manase pinned Toraga with the Lariat (8:24).
4. Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase defeated Fuminori Abe & Shota Kawakami when Ohka pinned Kawakami with a Bear Elbow (17:11).
5. Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated Yumehito Imanari & Keisuke Ishii when Susumu submitted Ishii with the Crossface Lock (15:53).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with a Crucifix Pin (17:08). *V5 for Masaaki Mochizuki.
It was a rocky road to get to this show with some changes happening along the way. Masaaki Mochizuki was supposed to defend the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title against Munetatsu Nakamura but Nakamura pulled out with a neck injury and was replaced by Shinichiro Tominaga. Then the location of the show had to change from Takashimadaira Kumin Center over to Shin-Kiba 1st RING on short notice because the first venue was being turned into a polling station for the upcoming House Of Representative elections.
In the main event, Tominaga came close to winning with his finisher but Mochizuki countered it with a sudden Crucifix Pin to win the match and survive a close shave. He praised Tominaga for acting like a pinch hitter for today’s show. He heard that Tominaga is the strongest “amateur” pro wrestler but today’s performance showed there is nothing amateur about him. He had more of a sense for pro wrestling than many people Mochizuki has fought in the past. Mizuki Watase entered the ring and talked up Mochizuki for being a great champion. Watase feels like he is at the point where he can beat a great champion like Mochizuki so he wants a title shot. The champion knew he would face Watase some day but didn’t expect it to be this soon, although he admits the time is right in Watase’s case.
Yuya Susumu has come back to Ganbare☆Pro on a mission to get a singles match against Keisuke Ishii. In today’s tag match he countered Ishii’s Double Arm DDT into a Crossface Lock, making Ishii immediately tap out to the move. Susumu then promised he isn’t going to run away from GanPro just because he beat Ishii today. He’ll come back so he can get that singles match he wants so much.
At the end of the show Ken Ohka announced he will be teaming up with freelance wrestler Hiroaki Moriya at GanPro’s Osaka show on 1st March. They are scheduled to face Touchable at the show so Ohka wants the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles to be on the line. Yumehito Imanari agreed to the challenge but only on the condition that Ohka goes and vote in the elections before then.
More last minute changes were needed when Moeka Haruhi and Choun Shiryu both unexpectedly no showed the event. Luckily GanPro had two replacements on hand who had a grievance with each other. Hong Kong International Police Woman defeated Hong Kong International Police Man in a match that was built around a crime case involving police corruption.
FREEDOMS/GANBARE☆PRO “SHIN-KIBA NO JIN!!”, 16/10/2025 Shin-Kiba 1st RING 176 Fans (FREEDOMS Supporters: 58 Fans, GanPro Supporters: 118 Fans)
1. Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi defeated Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima when Libre pinned Motoshima with the Dragon Suplex (11:34).
2. Shuichiro Katsumura defeated GENTARO with the Triple Two 2 Lock (10:22).
3. Violento Jack defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Charro Negro (8:55).
4. Mammoth Sasaki, Daisuke Masaoka & Kenji Fukimoto defeated Keisuke Ishii, Takuya Wada & YuuRI when Sasaki pinned YuuRI with the 29 Years Old (13:17).
5. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase (w/ Nobita) defeated Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura when Manase pinned Sasaki with a Lariat (12:07).
6. Fluorescent Lighttube + Weapon Tag Death Match: Jun Kasai & Tomoya Hirata defeated Ken Ohka & Mizuki Watase when Kasai pinned Ohka with the Cross-Arm Stimulation onto the Fluorescent Lighttubes (18:07).
A rivalry between Ganbare☆Pro and FREEDOMS has been brewing for a while now in a bid by both promotions to liven up the indies. The two sides agreed to hold an all out battle at Shin-Kiba 1st RING with the venue split in half for their supporters. GanPro overwhelmingly won the audience battle by drawing 118 of their own fans to the show while FREEDOMS could only draw in 58 fans. Takashi Sasaki’s excuse is most of the FREEDOMS fans were busy with their jobs while the GanPro fanbase have too much time on their hands. When it came to the match results, FREEDOMS ended up on the winners side with four of the six matches going their way. This isn’t the end of the rivalry though. Sasaki wants it to continue until one side completely gives up! Ken Ohka agreed and the two of them will come up with something in the future to keep this “GANDOM” series going.
The main event was chaotic enough with the usage of lighttubes and chairs as weapons but since it was the last match of the show, both sides went all out including the wrestlers at ring side who all joined in on their team’s train attacks. Ohka hit two Flame Spears on Jun Kasai but Tomoya Hirata stabbed him in the head with bamboo skewers. Mizuki Watase tried breaking up pinfalls to keep his team in the match but Ohka was eventually put away with the Cross-Arm Stimulation that smashed him through a bundle of lighttubes. Kasai said the GanPro team inspired him today and he also appreciated how enthusiastic the GanPro fans were too.
GanPro did get a big win in the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase brought along the GanPro staff member Nobita to be their second at ringside. He ended up getting bullied by Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura as they have been doing in the lead up to the show. Sugiura took his glasses and even emptied out a box of glasswear to try and Suplex Nobita onto. However Nobita was saved by the GanPro team and he got revenge by Body Slamming Sugiura onto the pile of glasses. Manase then got the surprise pin on Sasaki with a Lariat to win the match! Imanari said this is what happens when the bullied kid in class ends up training like crazy. He turns into a total killing machine! Meanwhile Sasaki and Manase both threw out the idea of having a singles match against each other to settle their differences. Manase wants the match to happen at Korakuen Hall.
YuuRI wasn’t as successful at her attempt of wrestling against the men. However although she lost Match #4 for her team after being pinned by Mammoth Sasaki, she earned everyone’s respect with her efforts. Sasaki begrudgingly shook her hand and raised it after the match. Things between Jun Masaoka and Keisuke Ishii was a bit more heated with the two of them butting heads before leaving the ring.
There was also respect earned between Violento Jack and Munetatsu Nakamura. Jack thought he was going to be wrestling some young brat but he ended up being impressed by Nakamura’s abilities. The current King Of FREEDOM World Champion used his submission finisher to make Nakamura give up and then gave him a fist bump when the dust had settled.
Shuichiro Katsumura requested GENTARO to be his opponent for the show because he considered the two to have something of a rivalry going on due to their wrestling styles. GENTARO planned on winning by pinfall while Katsumura focused on trying to submit him. It led to Katsumura countering GENTARO’s pinning cradle into a Triangle Choke that then switched into the Nagata Lock 3 for the win.
In the opening match, Dragon Libre & Reiya Igarashi pulled out a FREEDOMS flag and flaunted it in the ring to celebrate their victory. Igarashi said he could feel the fighting spirit coming from Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima so he wanted to overwhelm them with his own strength.

All of Harimao are getting together for an 8-Man Tag Match. Their opponents are filling up a similar size dynamic with The Apex and Jun Akiyama being there as the heavyweights alongside little Rukiya as… not the heavyweight.
The match order for the show has not been decided yet for everything except Match #2. Now that Kazuki Hirata is no longer the KO-D Champion, DDT is sending him right back home to the second match of the card. They’re making a series out of it so he won’t feel bad.

In a good move for speeding up Rukiya’s progression, he is heading over to GanPro for a match with Mizuki Watase. It’s the kind of match that will teach him how to wrestle while wearing his heart in his sleeve.

Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto from BASARA have brought an end to Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase’s title reign but plans were quickly put in place for GanPro to launch at rescue mission. After the main event Keisuke Ishii said he will go win the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles back and he will do it with either Yumehito Imanari or Shinichiro Tominaga as his tag partner. However Shota Kawakami stepped up and pleaded to team with Ishii, claiming he would have beaten him today with the Fisherman Buster if Ishii’s teammates didn’t come break the pin. Ishii asked the crowd for their opinion and their chants for Kawakami convinced him to make a decision. Michiyoshi Mishima told the pair to go get his championships back and Kawakami even suggested he can take one of the BASARA titles in the process! Meanwhile the new champs are inviting GanPro fans to come see BASARA because they think BASARA is more fun.
When Match #2 spilt to the outside, Aja Kong went over to the shop sponsoring the show Fresh Ariyama and grabbed some of their produce to attack her opponents with.

While she has made one or two appearances in many independents across the USA, you will usually find her in Juggalo Championship Wrestling or OVW. She used to wrestle a lot in IWA Mid South too. “Big Al” as she is nicknamed also competed in the infamous Power Slap contest earlier this year. As part of her title shot, Crowley will also be wrestling on the 12th and 19th October Tokyo Joshi Pro shows.
DDT “WRESTLING HARVEST ~UNDER THE RED SKY~”, 19/10/2025 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida
Let’s see if some Dosukoi spirit can take a tag team up past The Apex. The Harimao pair of Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida have stepped up to become the next challengers for the KO-D Tag Team Titles. For Higuchi it is a chance to win another championship so soon after losing the KO-D Openweight Title. Meanwhile Ishida has been picking up momentum, mostly from beating other wrestlers from the D GENERATION. Knocking down either Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya with the Flame Palm on route to a championship win will be a massive accomplishment for the little sumo.
DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025”, 03/11/2025 Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
1. Sanshiro Takagi Return Match – Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Shinya Aoki & Yuya Koroku Vs Tetsuya Endo, HAYATA & Junta Miyawaki
3. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Akito
4. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Kaisei Takechi Vs X & X
5. Dramatic Dream Match: Zack Sabre Jr. Vs Chris Brookes
The N1 Victory is now over and done with so the next big event on Tetsuya Endo’s calendar is his one night return to DDT. He’s bringing some NOAH friends with him because HAYATA & Junta Miyawaki are coming along too. I think this will actually be Miyawaki’s first time teaming with Endo. They were opponents for all of the previous times in NOAH I could find. The opposition has a lot of BURNING in it because both Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku are there. Shinya Aoki fills up the remaining space.
