I never would have thought a company as innocent as Tokyo Joshi Pro would dive head first into Las Vegas but here we are. The busiest week of the wrestling calendar has arrived and TJPW has one of the bigger shows going on in regards to big stakes for the important matches. All three championships belonging to the promotion will be on the line as the show is pretty much replacing the annual Golden Week event for this year. So if you’re new to the world of TJPW, an existing fan wanting to read up on everything or even a commentator looking for context beyond a Wikipedia page, this guide is intended for you!

Where and when are the shows taking place?

The two shows will be held at the Pearl Theater found inside Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. “TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS” is taking place on Friday, 18th April at 11am local time. “DDT VS TJPW VS GCW” is taking place on Saturday, 19th April at 2pm local time.

Where can I watch it online?

Both “TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS” and “DDT VS TJPW VS GCW” will air live on Triller TV with English commentary through the TrillerTV+ subscription service. The on-demand versions of both shows will be available to watch on Wrestle Universe a few weeks after the live broadcast.

Is this a proper TJPW show?

Yes and it’s being lined up to be one of their most important shows of the year. For many years TJPW would run a show at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo during Golden Week in May. However they have changed their schedule for this year and are instead doing two smaller scale shows outside of Tokyo during the week. The reason for that is because all of the important championships matches you would normally see at Korakuen are happening at this Las Vegas show instead.  The veteran side of the roster are all here and accounted for. The people missing are the low carders and young generation who only have one or two years of experience under their belts. They will staying behind in Japan to run a separate TJPW show alongside this one. The guest wrestlers taking part here have all been regularly booked by TJPW in the past as well so nobody sticks out like a sore thumb.

———————————————————————–


1. Rika Tatsumi, Shino Suzuki & Vert Vixen Vs Yuki Aino, Raku & Viva Van

Don’t know what to expect from the start? How about a little bit of everything this promotion has to offer? Every corner of what TJPW can do can be found in this match from accomplished former champions and tough midcarders to comedy gimmicks and a few guests thrown in for good measure. Rika Tatsumi is one of the pillars of the company, what Shino Suzuki lacks in experience she makes up for with her peppiness and Vert Vixen gets to step into the TJPW ring again. On the other team we have two thirds of the Love Triangle teaming up with a familiar opponent. Yuki Aino is ready to go as always, Raku is already set to have this year be her best one yet after she recently won her first championship and Viva Van is being introduced back into the fold before she returns to TJPW for a tour in Japan next month.

Rika Tatsumi – “The White Dragon” Rika Tatsumi takes her name and some of her moveset from Tatsumi Fujinami. She has also developed hips as hard of diamonds thanks to some special training with Shiro Koshinaka. She is one of TJPW’s most decorated wrestlers, being one of only two grand slam champions in the promotion (and the first one at that). But turning into such a powerful creature eventually came at a cost. The weight of success and power she obtained gradually turned her a little bit psycho. When you step into the ring with Tatsumi whether as friend or foe, she will find a way to strangle you.
Moves To Watch Out For: White Dragon Sleeper, Twist Of Fate, Hip Attack, “Let’s Go!” Elbow Drop, Strangling Her Opponents

Shino Suzuki – Welcome the first of three Up Up Girls to appear on the show. The Up Up Girls are a pop idol group that collaborated with TJPW to create a pro wrestling spin-off stable. The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) always perform a song or two at the beginning of TJPW shows before wrestling matches later on the card. Shino Suzuki is one of the newer members of the groups. She is nicknamed “She Know” because she worked as a bus guide before becoming an idol and pro wrestler. While currently low on the totem pole in TJPW, she will display gutsy performances along with her wealth of tourism knowledge.
Moves To Watch Out For: Sleeper Hold, Backward Rolling Cradle, Swinging Neckbreaker

Vert Vixen – Going from what I see online you can spell the name as either VertVixen or Vert Vixen. Obsessed with video games, her ring gear is often inspired by something gaming related. She is nicknamed Player One because Player One always wins! In previous TJPW appearances she has been successful enough to get a few title shots but she has yet to win a championship in this company. She has a busy schedule coming up for the week that might mix her up with other corners of the joshi world.
Moves To Watch Out For: Game Over (Ki Crusher), Blue Thunder Bomb, Rolling Stunner, Sharpshooter

Yuki Aino – At one time Yuki Aino was simply a ring announcer for TJPW who turned into a pro wrestler in order to team up with her sister (the now retired Nodoka Tenma). For years tag team wrestling has been her forte and Aino usually finds her way back there whenever her attempts to go solo end in failure. However 2024 was her best period yet as a singles wrestler. She had a Cinderella run in the Tokyo Princess Cup that led her all the way to the final. Don’t take her lightly when you hear she is powered by love. She can be as stubborn as they come and on her best days will hit you like a firetruck fuelled by love.
Moves To Watch Out For: Venus DDT (Inverted DDT), UBV/Unlimited Burning Venus (Double Arm Side Buster), Full Nelson Of Love And Fire (Full Nelson Camel Clutch), Side Suplex

Raku – The second member of The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) to appear on the card, Raku’s entire personality can be summed down to naps and trains. She knows so much railway trivia that on every show she will have a Train Of The Day to tell the audience. Will the Las Vegas Monorail be up to her standards? Raku’s moveset is built around sending her opponents to sleep so she can run over them with the Oyasumi Express. She is also sometimes armed with a pillow. Somehow this entire package has made her absolutely adored by fans and the roster alike. She also inexplicably became a proper champion this year by winning the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title.
Moves To Watch Out For: Doctor Yellow (Jumping Neckbreaker), Hurricane Turn (Cross-Arm Backslide Pin), Oyasumi/Good Night Express (running on top of the opponent over and over), Good Night Sleeper, Poppo Chop! (Brain Chop)

Viva Van – “The Hellbent Vixen” is one of the most well travelled female wrestlers on the scene today and can currently be seen in ROH. Thanks to working relationships between the promotions she has also done tours of Mexico with CMLL in the past six months. So her appearances in TJPW have been few and far between. The last time she was here she was fighting against Aino & Raku. This time around she is giving Love Triangle a shot by joining forces with them.
Moves To Watch Out For: Hellevator (Electric Chair spun into a Power Bomb), Ocean Cyclone Suplex, Code Red, Meteora, Butterfly Suplex


2. Yuki Arai Vs Arisu Endo

A match that will present a bright future for TJPW. Yuki Arai has been the company’s biggest pet project for a few year’s now. The idol has become one of their draws for her “Two-Sword” careers in both music and wrestling. But the music career has now ended so she can become fully dedicated as a pro wrestler. If they hadn’t been pushing her hard before, the stage is set for it to happen now! Her opponent Arisu Endo is currently licking her wounds after losing a big match against her own tag team partner. There’s a strong bond connecting all TJPW wrestlers who were born in 1998, aka The 1998 Class, which these two are a part of. Endo will want to show that it’s not just Arai who TJPW can count on in the future.

Yuki Arai – Remember the name if you want to follow joshi because TJPW has grand plans in place for Yuki Arai. Up until recently she was a pop idol with the group SKE48 and was known for juggling her singing career with her wrestling career. But she recently graduated from SKE48 to fully dedicate herself to pro wrestling. Already a multiple time champion she is only missing the big one to reach the TJPW Grand Slam. And given how much TJPW is behind her it feels like it will only be a matter of time before she wins it.
Moves To Watch Out For: Finally (Heel Drop axe kick), Rookie Award (Pump Kick to a kneeling opponent), Sharpshooter, Full Nelson Buster

Arisu Endo – One of the big tag teams in TJPW is called Daisy Monkey. Arisu Endo makes up the Monkey part of the team. She is Aizuwakamatsu City’s most cheerful tourism ambassador, representing her hometown with a thumbs up and a smile. Endo also has a habit of constantly dying her hair in new ways, using every colour in the world you can think of. She has so much pride in where she comes from that she named many of her moves after local destinations and traditions. She has also become good friends with Arai away from wrestling so them getting a match like this on a big stage is going to mean a lot to them.
Moves To Watch Out For: Ju no Okite (Hercules Cutter), Camel Clutch, Mt. Bandai (2nd Rope Springboard Dropkick), Tsuruga Castle (Guillotine Knee Drop)


3. Maki Itoh & Zara Zakher Vs Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku

Pairing Maki Itoh and Zara Zakher together might be the most attitude TJPW can get out of any tag team they can think of. Zakher’s wrestling career is still fairly new and she is busy earning her stripes on a WWE ID contract. Itoh made it no secret in the past she would take a big fat contract from an American company if she gets offered one. Maybe Zakher can put in a good word for her if they do well against their opponents. What happens when you put a wasteland warrior like Max The Impaler with the childlike innocence of Pom Harajuku? You get Pompaler, a buddy-buddy tag team that Pixar wished they came up with themselves. Want to see someone use their friend as a human missile? Then this is the match to watch.

Maki Itoh – A failed idol with an endless appetite for fame who won the hearts of pro wrestling fans around the world by transforming into a cute, foul mouthed psychopath. When she’s about to punch her opponent in the corner she always shouts “Who is the cutest in the world?” and the audience always yell “Itoh-chan!” back at her. She used to be self-conscious over being big-headed until she discovered that having an iron head is perfect for wrestling. After spending years trying to find acceptance and success in TJPW, she ended up finding it overseas in places like GCW. In fact nowadays you’re more likely to see Itoh carving up opponents with a pizza cutter in GCW than you will see her trying to be an idol in TJPW!
Moves To Watch Out For: Itoh Special/Deluxe/Punish (Variations of the Texas Cloverleaf), Flying Big Head (Diving Headbutt), Kokeshi Headbutt, I.S.D/Itoh Suicide DDT (Flying DDT from the top rope), The Cutest Knuckle Punch In The World

Zara Zakher – Many wrestling fans discovered Zara Zakher last November when she was one of the first wrestlers announced to be part of the brand new WWE ID initiative. But TJPW fans were ahead of the curve many months before that thanks to her tours of Japan throughout 2024. With only two years of experience under her belt, Zakher was able to hold her own against some of TJPW’s veteran guard for her first couple of tours. Then came the summer tour where she entered the Tokyo Princess Cup, went on a wild run of upsets against tournament favourites and made it all the way to the semi finals. Her performances have earned her title shots and while she has come out of them empty handed, it is undeniable that the Petite Powerhouse has already left a mark in TJPW.
Moves To Watch Out For: Control Z (Screw Bomb), Lariat, Standing Moonsault

Max The Impaler – Puroresu has a history of bringing over wild rampaging warriors from the western world to cause chaos in their rings. Who could have guess TJPW of all companies would join in the tradition? Whenever “The Non-Binary Nightmare” comes over to TJPW you can expect a path of chaos being left in their wake. And yet Max has ended up becoming really well liked by the roster resulting in some pretty strong bonds of friendship being forged out of it. Sure there are times when Max tears the building apart and management gets a little worried about getting future bookings with those venues but Max is now part of the family. And there is one wrestler more than anyone else who Max has established a very strong attachment with.
Moves To Watch Out For: Welcome To The Wasteland (Canadian Backbreaker Drop), Short-Range Lariat, Body Block

Pom Harajuku – Bright and colorful costumes, loud screaming and a lot of shin kicking. Pom Harajuku’s fighting style can be compared to a three year old throwing a temper tantrum. In recent years she has become the centre of Max The Impaler’s attention. They were originally opponents in matches that more resembled a movie monster chasing down their prey until Max began forming an attachment to Harajuku. Before we knew it the two of them became a tag team called Pompaler where Max constantly finds new ways to throw Harajuku at their opponents. When not being used as a projectile, Harajuku has had something of a breakout year in 2024 by reaching the final of the Max Heart Tournament with Max and also winning her first ever championship during a tour of Thailand. Even without Max, Harajuku can be a lot to handle by herself and that’s just from the screaming.
Moves To Watch Out For: Pom de Justice (Step-Up Guillotine Leg Drop), Laforet Harajuku (Satellite Headscissors), Shin Kick, Denden Taiko (beating the opponent’s chest like a drum)


4. TNA World Knockouts Title: Masha Slamovich (c) Vs Miu Watanabe

EDIT: It has since been announced that the match will be for the TNA World Knockouts Title.

This has the makings of a show-stealer. These are two wrestlers who went through breakout years in 2024 set to clash against each other. Masha Slamovich has become a top tier talent in both TNA and GCW while Miu Watanabe finally reached the summit of TJPW after fans waited so long to see her get up there. Now that her run as champion has ended for now she is getting put in the ring against the best female stars from around the world that TJPW can find (and haven’t been locked down by exclusive contracts).

Masha Slamovich – Maybe the toughest girl going in wrestling today. She is currently the TNA Knockouts Champion, was the only woman to ever hold the GCW World Title and has also become unstoppable in Jersey Championship Wrestling as their champion. TJPW is a corner of the world that’s given her a challenge though. She’s fought for championships here before and come out of them empty handed. When it comes to the promotion bringing in guests, she has become one of the highest walls for even TJPW’s most accomplished wrestlers to try and climb over. This match here is another example of that.
Moves To Watch Out For: White Knight Driver/From Russia With Love (Half Package Piledriver), Snow Plow/Russian Death Device (Northern Lights Bomb), Liger Bomb, Shining Wizard

Miu Watanabe – The third and last Up Up Card on the show, Miu Watanabe has two things she loves most in life: Idols and Pro Wrestling! She is also the strongest and most successful of the lot when it comes to what happens inside the ring. She is the second Grand Slam champion so you can say she’s almost done it all in TJPW yet she still has the whole world at her feet. Always full of energy, Watanabe uses big hand gestures to spell out L-O-V-E along with her theme song during her entrances. She also knows various ways to throw people around with the Giant Swing and cave some chests in with Double Sledge strikes.
Moves To Watch Out For: Tear Drop (Modified Flapjack), Reverse Paradox (Gorilla Clutch), Laserbeam (Overhand Chop to the chest), Giant Swing, Canadian Backbreaker, Swinging Backbreaker


5. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Jada Stone

Let’s head into the championship bouts. The International Princess Title is TJPW’s midcard title that is meant to be built around international competition. That’s not always the case but here it fits the bill. Suzume has been on a run with the belt since winning it from Yuki Arai and an overseas title defence is currently missing from this résumé. Jada Stone has challenged Suzume for the title once before but couldn’t get the job done. She is getting a rematch and should theoretically have the home field advantage this time.

Suzume – As sharp and swift as a wasp, Suzume is the Daisy half of Daisy Monkey. She begun her career as a fast learner, only spending seven months in training before making her pro debut. Just based on her aesthetic alone it is of no surprise that speed is the name of her game. It’s served her well because she became the International Princess Champion at the start of the year and has held onto it ever since. She also already has a successful title defence against her opponent here.
Moves To Watch Out For: Ring A Bell (RKO), Spring Ring A Bell (Oscutter), Mikazuki Meteor Shower (Diving Cross Body), Twinkle (Twisting School Boy), Flying Facecrusher

Jada Stone – “The Spark” caused a bit of a stir in Deadlock Pro last September. With only two years of experience at the time, she won a dark match to enter the Battle Of The Best tournament as a last minute stand in. She then wrestled a second match on the night losing to Shoko Nakajima in the tournament but her performances that evening won over a lot of people. Word went back to TJPW and they brought her in for tours this year that included an IP Title shot. Again she lost the match but TJPW liked what they saw between her and Suzume so much that they decided to run it back in Vegas.
Moves To Watch Out For: Spark Stunner (Backflip into a Stone Cold Stunner), Moonsault, Meteora, Sliding Lariat


6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara

Next up the Princess Tag Team Titles are on the line. Kyoraku Kyomei is what happens when Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao decided to become a fun loving tag team living to their fullest during the pandemic because neither of them knew what tomorrow would bring. They are one of the longest serving active tag teams in TJPW but only just recently won the tag titles for the first time together. This is going to be their first defence. Their opponents are a newly put together team called Ober Eats. If you ask Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara where they got the name from they might say it’s because Uehara likes to over eat. Or they might come up with something else because really they just needed to think up a team name on short notice in order to get Kyoraku Kyomei to accept their challenge.

Shoko Nakajima – Meet the Big Kaiju, all 147cm of her! Shoko Nakajima has pretty much done it all in TJPW as one of the promotion’s longest serving wrestlers. Usually relying on quick reflexes, she also has the strength to put away opponents with the Northern Lights Suplex. The Diving Senton she uses is nothing to sneeze at either. When put in Hardcore Match situations her favourite weapon is a pile of kaiju toys that she slams her opponents onto. She’s a Swiss Army Knife that can adapt to any kind of situation wrestling can throw at her. She also very recently won the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title.
Moves To Watch Out For: Northern Lights Suplex, Diving Senton, Unmanned Local Train Hold (Yurikamome submission hold), 619, Rider Kick (One-Legged Dropkick)

Hyper Misao – When love and peace is under threat in TJPW, you can always rely on Hyper Misao to come to the rescue. Just be aware that her plans to save the world are never as heroic as they’re meant to be. She often gets on the microphone to greet everyone with “Hello big children” before explaining her plan to save the day. Of course by being a superhero that means she has her own Hyper Mobile. She likes to crash it into her opponents along with any unfortunate bystander who happens to be nearby. She also blinds opponents with her Hero Correction Spray. Deep down inside Misao is a multi-layered human being with infinite potential that if harvested correctly could make her a very powerful wrestler. But why go through all that baggage when you can just wear a cool mask and cheat like hell instead?
Moves To Watch Out For: Hypami Returns (Final Cut), I Am A Hero (Diving Cross Body), Crossface Chickenwing, Vanitas (Double Arm Facebuster), Cold Spray Attack

Yuki Kamifuku – Also known by her nickname Kamiyu, she is “The Casual Beauty” of TJPW. Grew up in Ohio during her junior high school years so she knows the most English out of the bunch. She knows how to get under her opponent’s skin with harsh and catty opinions but there is another side to her where she is loyal and sympathetic to her friends. She is also proud of her modelling background because her accomplishments in the ring is proof you do not need to be a die hard pro wrestling fan to succeed in the business. Over the last two years she has emerged as the most dominant woman in the Southeast Asian wrestling scene where she currently holds both the Queen Of Asia Title from Singapore and the VPW Women’s Title from Vietnam. The two belts together can be referred to as the Double Asian Crown. If she can win the Tag Titles here she’ll have something in her wardrobe to match with the belt for sure.
Moves To Watch Out For: Famouser (Jumping Leg Drop to a bent over opponent), Big Boot, Yahoo 83cm (Headscissors DDT), Manjigatame, Thumb To The Eye

Wakana Uehara – “WAKANAAAAAA!” One of the emerging stars climbing up the ranks is popular with fans because of her noticeably big… appetite. Wakana Uehara entered wrestling through a reality series TJPW held for idols called Yume Pro Wrestling -dream on the ring- and was the sole person who stayed on to turn pro. She made her mark by winning the first Next Generation Tournament in 2023, hit a road block in 2024 and this year ended up attaching herself to Kamifuku as a tag team to jump start her momentum again. This will be her first ever chance at winning a championship. One can only imagine the victory meal she’ll have in Vegas to celebrate!
Moves To Watch Out For: Banana Pillow (Triangle Lancer), Sleeper Hold, Space Rolling Elbow, High Speed Brainbuster


7. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

To put it simply, the main event is TJPW’s two strongest wrestlers against each other. This is going to be one of the biggest matches the company will book this year anywhere in the world. Only a select few have held the Princess Of Princess Title in the championship’s nine years of existence. Mizuki is currently on her second reign and only wants to defend it against the best to ensure she is a stronger champion now than she was the first time back in 2023. That means defending the belt against the one woman she has yet to beat one on one, the ace of TJPW Miyu Yamashita! Already a four time Princess Champion, Yamashita is using this show to kick off her latest American excursion that will last up until the summer. There’s no bad intentions behind the decision but if she wins the title again then that means TJPW will be without their main championship for several months. The only times Mizuki has gotten the better of Yamashita has been in tag matches but when it comes to singles clashes, it’s been Yamashita on top every time. Will this finally be the day when the strongest princess slays the strongest monster?

Mizuki – “The Popping Sugar Rabbit” did not start her wrestling career in TJPW but she has established herself as one of the company’s all time best with multiple championship reigns and big show main events to her name. One of the most photogenic wrestlers going today. She constantly goes viral on social media for using moves that leave those who see them locked in a state of inspiration and amazement. She doesn’t understand what U3+4 means but she is the closest pro wrestling will ever get to creating a real life Lili from Tekken. Now a two-time Princess Champion she wants to fight the best so she herself can get even stronger. Don’t trust that mischievous smile of hers, she is vicious when she wants to be. “The Popping Sugar Rabbit” may sound like a silly nickname but we’ll see who’s laughing when Mizuki is Double Stomping the guts out of her opponent.
Moves To Watch Out For: Cutie Special (Bridging Fall Away Slam), Whirling Candy (Spinning Cross Body Block), Diving Foot Stomp, Face Lock

Miyu Yamashita – “The Pink Striker” has been part of TJPW since Day 1 of the company proper and is never far away from winning one of their championships. She is such a major part of the company that her dominance has long become a big fish in a small pond scenario. The Skull Kick she uses is one of the most deadliest looking finishers around. In recent years she has taken time away from TJPW to wrestle across America and Europe. That trend continues because after this show takes place Yamashita will begin a fresh stay in America that will last from April until July.
Moves To Watch Out For: Skull Kick (Backspin High Kick to the head), Crash Rabbit Heat (Running Knee Kick), Attitude Adjustment, Return Crash (Triangle Kick off the turnbuckles)

DDT/TOKYO JOSHI PRO/GCW “DDT VS TJPW VS GCW”, 19/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Mizuki, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Miu Watanabe, Suzume, Arisu Endo, Yuki Arai & Shino Suzuki
2. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Brooke Havok & Sandra Moone
3. Rika Tatsumi & Antonio Honda Vs Kidd Bandit & Shota
4. 3 Way Match: MAO & Yoshihiko Vs Jimmy Lloyd & Alec Price Vs Jack Cartwheel & Kazuma Sumi

6. Special Tag Match: Mance Warner & Shunma Katsumata Vs John Wayne Murdoch & Matt Tremont
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Ilusion & Dark Sheik Vs Super Crazy, Marcus Mathers & Shoko Nakajima
8. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Masha Slamovich Vs Shinya Aoki & Miyu Yamashita

Welcome to this year’s edition of “Real Matches Or My Fire Pro Save?” This is a mental set of matches booked so far and there’s still like a third of the card still to be put together. GCW did an admirable job last year of finding women on their shows to match up against TJPW. They don’t have to worry about being strict this time around so maybe we get something like Pom Harajuku interacting with Effy or maybe Max The Impaler gets to kidnap Yuni? At least all parties involved can honestly say they came up with a show that is absolutely unlike anything else going on this week.

———————————————————————–

But wait. There’s more! A few TJPW wrestlers are taking bookings on other shows happening through the week.


PANDEMONIUM PRO “THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS”, 17/04/2025
Fremont Country Club, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Maya World Vs Miu Watanabe

It all starts with Watanabe taking a rare outside booking with Pandemonium Pro a few days before the TJPW show. Maya World is one of the many talents looking to grab attention for themselves and beating a former Princess Champion would do just that.


WRESTLECON “MARK HITCHCOCK MEMORIAL SUPERSHOW”, 17/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Mickie James Vs Maki Itoh

In one corner stands a wrestling idol with grand ambitions of becoming a popstar who was unceremoniously fired in a humiliating fashion in the past. In the other corner is Maki Itoh. Also if any British fans start chanting “Hardcore Country” at Mickie James for literally the entire match you have my permission to throw a brick at them.


GCW “JOSH BARNETT’S BLOODSPORT XIII”, 17/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Nattie Neidhart Vs Miyu Yamashita

Unlikely friends fighting each other in an unlikely match up. The last time Yamashita entered GCW’s Bloodsport she lost to Shayna Baszler. She will face another WWE wrestler for her return but this one hits a little closer to home. A home away from home if you will. Whenever Yamashita does her excursions to America she often visits Natalya to train at her invite-only wrestling school. It was a given that someday the two would eventually fight each other. Nattie Neidhart has a chip on her shoulder because the expectations are always that she is expected to be a stepping stone for her opponents. Yamashita doesn’t want to be underestimated either. Get your $1 bets ready for this one.


WRESTLECORE “FEAR & WRESTLECORE IN LAS VEGAS”, 18/04/2025
Swan Dive, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. ELP Vs Maki Itoh

Oh what could have been. In the lead up to this week El Phantasmo was sending messages to Itoh asking if they could team up together as The World’s Cutest Tag Team. Plans didn’t go the way they were intended so now the two of them are at each other’s throats! Only a match against each other on the WrestleCore show will solve this problem.


GCW “CLUSTERF*CK FOREVER”, 19/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Clusterfuck Match: X Vs X

Maybe Itoh or Yamashita shows up in the Clusterfuck? What about Raku? No wait she’ll be sleeping through it. Throw Shino Suzuki in there.

5. Keigo Nakamura Send Off Match ~ Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Keigo Nakamura

Once the American trip is done it’s back to work with another show at Ueno Park. It includes a rare defence of the O-40 Title that Toru Owashi won last October. He hasn’t defended it yet so he has to put it on the line against Antonio Honda.

The winners of the Tag Rumble will apparently get a wish granted as their prize.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GOLDEN WEEK FAN APPRECIATION DAY 「EAST」”, 03/05/2025
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube

1. VPW Women’s Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Viva Van

In December 2023 Viva Van came to TJPW as a challenger for Yuki Kamifuku to defend the Queen Of Asia Title against. Next month the rematch will happen this time with the VPW Women’s Title on the line. Van is a Vietnamese-American wrestler so it will mean a lot to her to win a championship from Vietnam Pro Wrestling.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GOLDEN WEEK FAN APPRECIATION DAY 「WEST」”, 05/05/2025
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. SETUP All Asia Women’s Title: Raku (c) Vs Nor ‘Phoenix’ Diana
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Matcha & Alexis Lee

When Matcha and Alexis Lee both come back to Japan they will team up as an “All Southeast Asian Team” challenging for the Princess Tag Team Titles. I also heard Sayuri Namba refer to them as SEA Storm but I don’t know if it will be their official team name. They will face either Kyoraku Kyomei or Ober Eats for the belts depending on which team wins the title match this week in Vegas.

5. HARUKAZE’s Last Match Before Her Hiatus: Ken Ohka Vs HARUKAZE
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Yasu Urano & PSYCHO

The SOG World Tag Team Titles haven’t been defended since last November because of Mizuki Watase’s injury. Both he and Shigehiro Irie want to make up for lost time and start fighting in tag title matches again. Yasu Urano & PSYCHO have stepped up to be their first challengers. They believe Watase is not being honest about his recovery and is not wrestling at 100%. The sooner this match happens, the better their chances are to win the tag titles.

There is only one person HARUKAZE believes she can beat in a fair fight and she is desperate to finally win one match before her wrestling career is put on hiatus. So she’s breaking the emergency glass and picked Ken Ohka to be her final opponent!

The Ganbare☆Joshi match will feature Nanami from Diana and Kirari Wakana from Ice Ribbon.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SAYURI NAMBA’S DREAM COME TRUE SPECIAL”, 14/06/2025

1. LEONA Vs X
2. Mizuki & Suzume (w/ Sayuri Namba) Vs X & X

Namba is starting to put her special show together. She has opted to be in the corner for Mizuki & Suzume in the main event tag match. The opponents as well as the ring announcer for the main event have not been decided on yet.

The show will also have LEONA from Dradition taking part in a match. He and Namba were classmates in the same university so they both know each other from before they entered the pro wrestling industry. One of Namba’s dreams was to announce LEONA for a match so it will come true after all.

1. GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER: Dick Togo Vs Daisuke Sasaki

For the second “CHARISMANIA” show Daisuke Sasaki most wants to have a singles match against his mentor Dick Togo.

The rest of DAMNATION T.A will be on the show. That means Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul and Ilusion.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE UNIVERSE MEMBERS ONLY SHOW – PURE TOKYO JOSHI PRO WRESTLING 9” Results

April 13, 2025

2. Kira Summer defeated Ivy Steele with the Samoan Drop (6:00).
3. Hyper Misao, Hyper Mahiro & Hyper Moka defeated Yuki Caras, Mil Nekocaras & La Kuruka when Misao pinned Nekocaras with La Magistral Cradle (10:00)
4. Academic And Athletic Match: Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami (3) defeated Miyu Yamashita & Arisu Endo (2).
5. Werewolf Death Match – 2 Count Fall Rules: Kaya Toribami (Werewolf) & Maki Itoh (Werewolf) defeated Shoko Nakajima (Citizen), Rika Tatsumi (Citizen) & Shino Suzuki (Citizen/Fortune Teller) (15:01).
5a. Maki Itoh eliminated Shino Suzuki with a School Boy (7:00).
5b. Rika Tatsumi eliminated Maki Itoh with a School Boy (11:25).
5c. Kaya Toribami eliminated Shoko Nakajima with a School Boy (15:01).
6. Costume Change Match: Mizuki, Suzume, Pom Harajuku & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Hyper Haru & Toga when Mizuki pinned Haru with the Cutie Special (12:10).

After skipping 2024, the annual Tokyo Joshi Pro show that is only open to Wrestle Universe members was brought back this year. It is the show where once a year things in TJPW are not as they should be. The main event was an 8-Woman Tag where everyone was given a different wrestler’s costume and they were encouraged to behave like the person they dress up as. One team consisted of Wakana Uehara as Miyu Yamashita, HIMAWARI as Shoko Nakajima, Haru Kazashiro as Hyper Misao (temporarily renaming herself Hyper Haru) and Toga as Haruna Neko. The other team were all dressed up as The Up Up Girls! That meant Mizuki was Shino Suzuki, Suzume was Raku, Pom Harajuku was Uta Takami and Yoshiko Hasegawa was Miu Watanabe. The Fake Up Up Girls even dance to “I Don’t Want To Lose” to get themselves motivated and it helped them get the win.

It turns out you can apply the game of Werewolf to pro wrestling. It was a 5 Way Match where the five competitors were unknowingly split into two sides. Three of them were Citizens and two were Werewolves. Two Count Pinfalls were in effect and the first side to eliminate two players from the other team would win. Every three minutes the match would pause so everyone could deduce who the Werewolves were before going back to fighting. There was also a bonus Fortune Teller role given to one of the Citizens where they were allowed to nominate one person and be told if they were a Werewolf or not. Suzuki was the Fortune Teller and she made Maki Itoh reveal she was a Werewolf. Itoh then eliminated Suzuki but was beaten by Rika Tatsumi shortly after that. With one Werewolf left, Tatsumi was heavily suspected to be one because according to Nakajima, Tatsumi normally behaves like a Werewolf. However Kaya Toribami then rolled up Nakajima from behind to pin her, revealing she was the other Werewolf all along and the Werewolf team had now won the match!

Four of the most athletic wrestlers in TJPW were put into a tag match that tested their brain power as much as their physical abilities. After every 1 Count Pinfall, the winner would be asked an elementary school question. Whichever team gets three questions right first would win. Nobody understood the rules at first but eventually figured them out. They also got a bunch of questions wrong. Gradually the two teams had 2 points each and scrambled to get 1 Count pins. Takami got one on Yamashita and scored the final point to get the win for herself and Watanabe. It was not Yamashita and Arisu Endo’s brightest moment that’s for sure.

I don’t know what Hyper Misao did but she convinced Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto to take up the capes and masks to become superheroes just like her. However two of their opponents Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko pulled out of the match on short notice due to stomach pains and were replaced by the luchadoras Yuki Caras & Mil Nekocaras. They teamed up with Raku who seemingly disappeared during the match only to be replaced by a dancing skeleton. No it wasn’t La Parka, it was La Karuka! The lucha trio took over until Nekocaras failed to do the 619 and injured her legs from bouncing off the ropes. Misao pinned her with La Magistral Cradle to give the superheroes the win.

More international flair was brought to TJPW in the match before that. Ivy Steele fought Kira Summer in a match pitting Great Britain against Australia. Summer entered the ring dressed in a bush costume while carrying a stuffed koala toy. She offered Steele some Vegemite before the match but Steele refused because she didn’t want to eat it. Summer forced her to taste it while the wrestled causing Steele to kick away the koala toy in anger. Summer got some payback by beating her with the Samoan Drop.

Compared to everything else on the show, Yuki Kamifuku versus Chika Nanase was quite normal. Kamifuku teased Nanase by calling her so uninteresting it’s almost pitiful. Nanase was fired up to fight her but Kamifuku was the one standing tall in the end.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINJUKU” Results

April 11, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINJUKU”, 11/04/2025
Shinjuku FACE
288 Fans

1. Mifu Ashida defeated Chika Nanase with the German Suplex (6:27).
2. 3 Way Match: Kaya Toribami defeated Moka Miyamoto and Kira Summer when Toribami pinned Summer with a Cradle (7:26).
3. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Haruna Neko & Ivy Steele when Aino pinned Steele with the Venus DDT (9:31).
4. Rika Tatsumi defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Missile Hip (9:27).
5. Suzume, Arisu Endo & Uta Takami defeated Haru Kazashiro, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki when Suzume pinned Suzuki with the Ring A Bell (10:46).
6. Miu Watanabe defeated Toga with the Reverse Paradox (8:55).
7. Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita, Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara when Mizuki pinned Yamashita with the Aquamarine (11:30).

One last big preview for Las Vegas next week was on display in the main event. It was the Princess Of Princess Champion and the Princess Tag Team Champions joining forces against their challengers. Shoko Nakajima was back from America and had her newly won MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title with her. Hyper Misao wanted to start the match with handshakes but the challenger team knew what was coming and defended themselves. The champion team got the upper hand anyway and manipulated Miyu Yamashita into kicking Wakana Uehara away from her. Misao blinded Yamashita with a spray and rolled her up into one of the ringside mats. But Yamashita escaped, trapped Misao into the mat and Penalty Kicked her at ringside. Misao later took out Yuki Kamifuku with the Gotham Crush but Nakajima was thrown aside by a Snap Suplex from Uehara. The match came down to Mizuki ducking under Yamashita’s Skull Kick and rolling her up with the Aquamarine to get the big victory.

Yamashita left the ring in defeat while Kyoraku Kyomei and Ober Eats shared some last words with each other in the ring. Mizuki says she knows Yamashita is frustrated by today’s result because she herself was frustrated when Yamashita pinned her in Nagoya last month. She got one back today and promised she will never lose to the monster again! Backstage Misao said she will be leaving for Vegas with a fresh mind because of today’s win. Nakajima said she’ll be visiting America more often this year because of the MLW Women’s Title so she definitely wants to win in Vegas. Kamifuku has noticed how much stronger and even darker Kyoraku Kyomei have become but she has a theory that they are actually weaker when they are on American soil. America suits Ober Eats better because Kamifuku & Uehara both like American junk food. Yamashita was surprised by how Mizuki beat her today but that motivates her and now she’s more excited for the title match. She asked Kamifuku to go warn her that Yamashita is scary.

Everyone also cut their final promos for the Las Vegas show in English. Yamashita said she will never give up and will start “kicking showtime.” Kamifuku said Ober Eats will bring the fans happiness and Uehara promised they will get the belts. Nakajima said she’s going to Vegas because she likes money, Misao is sure Kyoraku Kyomei will win and Mizuki told Yamashita to go to hell!

Two title matches were announced for the Golden Week shows in May. First Yuki Kamifuku will be defending her VPW Women’s Title against the returning Viva Van on the 3rd May show in Yokohama. Then on 5th May in Osaka whoever the Princess Tag Champions are coming out of Vegas will put the belts on the line against the “SEA STORM” of Matcha & Alexis Lee! The two Southeast Asian wrestlers are tired of TJPW taking their championships from them that they want to give the company a taste of their own medicine!

Maki Itoh wasn’t on the show today because she was feeling in poor condition. I don’t blame her. Fighting Jun Kasai in a quasi-death match out in the cold on a Wednesday night isn’t something you’d immediately recover from. A few of the undercard matches were switched around because of her absence.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN FUKUOKA” Results

April 6, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN FUKUOKA”, 06/04/2025
Acros Fukuoka
335 Fans

1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Mifu Ashida with the Rashomon (6:32).
2. Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa & Chika Nanase when Kiryu pinned Nanase with the Spinebuster (8:16).
3. 3 Way Match: Raku defeated Kaya Toribami and Shino Suzuki when Raku pinned Suzuki with the Hurricane Turn (7:00).
4. Rika Tatsumi & Toga defeated Kira Summer & Ivy Steele when Tatsumi pinned Summer with the Twist Of Fate (9:37).
5. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Suzume pinned Takami with the Ring A Bell (11:53).
6. Mizuki & Aja Kong defeated Hyper Misao & Pom Harajuku when Kong pinned Harajuku with the Back Drop (11:46).
7. Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Miyu Yamashita, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro when Itoh submitted Kazashiro with the Itoh Deluxe (13:27).

It was only fitting that Fukuoka was the location of 121000000’s first match against each other since splitting up. The two hometown girls Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh opened up the match and had an intense back and forth before both tagging out. They had more exchanges in the match but others got in the way. Ober Eats tried working out a Double Flapjack together but Yamashita kicked both Wakana Uehara & Yuki Kamifuku away. But it was Itoh who scored the victory for her team by making Haru Kazashiro submit to the Itoh Deluxe while Yamashita & Yuki Aino were unable to make the save. Itoh gave the microphone to Yamashita after the match to say some words before taking it back to close out the show herself. She got the crowd to call Yamashita the second cutest in the world while Itoh is still the cutest. Backstage Itoh brought up that she and Yamashita are having a singles match in GCW next month. She feels like she cannot lose to her there.

Hyper Misao thought it was unfair that Mizuki got to team up with Aja Kong so she & Pom Harajuku tried bribing Kong with rice crackers to join their side. They also made custom superhero masks for the three of them to wear. Kong declined the offer and hit Misao with the box of crackers while Mizuki stole Harajuku’s shoes. Mizuki also brought a Pico Pico Hammer into the ring. Misao used the Hero Spray to blind Mizuki, causing her to blindly swing the Hammer around in the ring. Kong hit Mizuki over the head with a steel can to stop her. Mizuki regained her sight and used the Hammer to knock the spray can out of Misao’s hands. Kong then knocked out Harajuku with the steel can and pinned her with the Back Drop. Kong assured Mizuki she was never going to turn on her because Kong was teaming with a champion while Misao only wanted to make people look funny wearing the mask. She encouraged Mizuki to go beat Yamashita to a pulp in America.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN HIROSHIMA” Results

April 5, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN HIROSHIMA”, 05/04/2025
Hiroshima Industrial Hall
178 Fans

1. Kaya Toribami defeated Uta Takami with the Bird Cage (6:58).
2. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Moka Miyamoto & Chika Nanase when Raku submitted Nanase with the Front Neck Lock (8:43).
3. Rika Tatsumi defeated Mifu Ashida with the Figure 4 Leg Lock (7:49).
4. Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Toga defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Kira Summer & Ivy Steele when Watanabe submitted Steele with the Reverse Paradox (11:30).
5. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko when Suzume pinned Neko with the Ring A Bell (8:26).
6. Miyu Yamashita defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Skull Kick (11:53).
7. Mizuki & Wakana Uehara defeated Maki Itoh & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (12:56).

If you ever need someone to give you a little push in the right direction, Maki Itoh will be happy to do it literally. Shino Suzuki was encouraged to do a dive from the ring apron onto her opponents standing outside the ring but she was too scared to do it. So Itoh made her do it with a kick that knocked her off the apron. Mizuki & Wakana Uehara easily dodged it and Suzuki crashed onto the ground. Back in the ring Suzuki gave Mizuki a Belly-To-Belly Suplex and applied the Sleeper Hold. Mizuki was able to get out of it and pin Suzuki with the Cutie Special. After the match Suzuki said she is surprised by how strong Suzuki has gotten and Itoh was the same as always. She wants to continue bringing the kind of wrestling that makes fans look forward to tomorrow but first she’s going to eat some delicious food with Uehara.

Yoshiko Hasegawa understood she had little to no chance of beating Miyu Yamashita but wanted today’s match to happen before she retires from wrestling later this July. She targeted Yamashita’s legs with Dropkicks and also went for the Muffler Hold but had to let go after a rope break. Yamashita fought back with a High Kick and the Attitude Adjustment. She then won with the Skull Kick. Hasegawa described wrestling Yamashita like she was seeing a monster in front of her but it is still an experience she will cherish. Yamashita will be on her American tour when Hasegawa’s graduation from Tokyo Joshi Pro takes place so she is glad they got to have their match today.

Earlier today MAO & Yuya Koroku wrestled on the undercard of a New Japan show. Koroku used the match as a last minute tune up for this Sunday’s KO-D Openweight Title match. MAO gave a tease that New Japan will be seeing more of him this May. That sounds Super.

This will be TJPW’s last proper show before Las Vegas but they do have a fan club show happening in the middle between them. The main event can be treated as the go-home match because it is a team of champions taking on their next challengers in a 6-Woman Tag Match. So it’s the last chance for Mizuki and Miyu Yamashita to size each other up while Kyoraku Kyomei and Ober Eats can get deal a big warning strike to each other.

6. Spring Sports Day Special 10-Woman Tag Match: Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki defeated Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI.
6a. Ball Throwing Match: Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki (5) defeated Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI (2).
– Red Team 1 – 0 White Team.
6b. Three-Legged Wrestling – 2 Count Fall Rules: Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki with a Double Backslide Pin (1:56).
– Red Team 1 – 1 White Team.
6c. Baton Relay: Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Kaya Toribami, Yoshiko Hasegawa & HIMAWARI defeated Mizuki, Yuki Aino, Raku, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki.
– Red Team 1 – 2 White Team.
6d. Final Single Match ~ Special Rules: Raku defeated Hyper Misao with the Hurricane Turn (5:12).

The main event was a team based challenge involving three games that mixed pro wrestling with a school sports festival. After the three games were completed, the team with the most points were given an advantage for the final round. The first game involved both teams rushing to fill their basket with the most amount of balls. Mizuki from the Red Team and Hyper Misao from the White Team carried the basket and their teammates all tried to throw balls at them. Right before the time expired, Mizuki kicked over Misao’s basket resulting in her team winning five balls to two.

The second game was a wrestling match where two pairs of wrestlers had their legs tied together Three-Legged Race style. The Red Team was Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki while the White Team were Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa. They struggled to wrestle while being tied together but the White Team were able to roll up the Red Team for the victory.

The third game was a full relay race around the venue split into five parts. It started with Kaya Toribami pinning Yuki Aino with under 1 Count Rules to get a three second headstart. Then Mizuki and Hasegawa had a strawberry eating contest. The rules weren’t fully fleshed out which meant Toribami and Aino joined in to help their partners (and eat some free strawberries). After that Suzuki and Nakajima had a sack race from one end of the aisle to the other. Part 4 was a scavanger hunt between Kazashiro and HIMAWARI where they both went looking for a specific person carrying a yellow towel. The final challenge was a race to get past Tetsuya Koda in order to reach the finish line. Hyper Misao used the Hyper Mobile to speed past Raku, crash into Koda and then cross over the finish line to win the relay for the White Team.

All of that led into the grand finale. It was a singles match between a chosen member from each team and what we got was Raku from the Red Team against Misao from the White Team. Since the White Team had more points, Misao only needed a 1 Count Pinfall to win while Raku needed to score a 2 Count Pinfall. Every wrestler from the two teams interfered. If that wasn’t chaotic enough, Misao armed herself with the hero spray and Raku used her pillow as a weapon. Raku ended up turning the spray on Misao to blind her before using the Hurricane Turn to get the 2 Count pin. Team Red had become the winners of the sports festival!

Match #5 was changed when Antonio Honda was unable to wrestle because of his chronic love sickness. He was replaced by A.YAZAWA and the match was turned into a Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match! Rika Tatsumi prepared herself for the match by bringing her guitar along with her. She also strangled YAZAWA with his own suspenders. He recovered when “Paint It Black” played over the speakers. Everyone danced while they wrestled for a while. The music system malfunctioned midway through the match and started playing other genres. All four joined together when “Swan Lake” played then started fighting again when it was over. Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu were able to pin Honda & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi at the same time with stereo Backslide Pins for the victory.

Pom Harajuku wasn’t at the show because she was feeling unwell. Her scheduled opponent Miu Watanabe was instead added to Arisu Endo Vs Uta Takami to make it a 3 Way Match.

It was announced that Matcha and Alexis Lee will both be returning to Tokyo Joshi Pro for Golden Week. They will be on the 3rd and 5th May shows.

March 29, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YUKI ARAI’S LAST TWO-SWORD STYLE ~ GO FOR THE VICTORY!!”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall (Nagoya City)
536 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Suzume, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko defeated Yuki Aino, Kaya Toribami & Ivy Steele when Suzume pinned Steele with the Ring A Bell (9:44).
2. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku defeated Arisu Endo and Chika Nanase when Harajuku pinned Nanase with a Backward Rolling Cradle (8:34).
3. Maki Itoh defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Itoh Deluxe (6:33).
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer when Misao pinned Summer with the Hypami Returns (8:48).
5. Yuki Arai, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami defeated Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro, Toha & Mifu Ashida when Watanabe submitted Ashida with the Reverse Paradox (13:07).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto defeated Mizuki & Rika Tatsumi when Yamashita pinned Mizuki by Referee Stoppage with the Modified Cobra Clutch (13:37).

A big preview tag match for “TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS” headlined today’s show in Aichi. It might be the last chance for Mizuki and Miyu Yamashita to test each other out before their Princess Of Princess Title match in America next month. Meanwhile Rika Tatsumi got her wish to team up with Mizuki and she tried to carry her like a princess only for Moka Miyamoto to push them over. Mizuki & Tatsumi had better luck working together later when they gave Yamashita a Diving Double Stomp/Twist Of Fate combo. Tatsumi also sacrificed herself by pushing Mizuki out of the way from the Crash Rabbit Heat and taking the impact of Yamashita’s finisher instead. But when Mizuki tried to capitalise, Yamashita stunned her with a High Kick and used a Modified Cobra Clutch to drag her down to the mat. Mizuki wouldn’t give up so Yamashita kept applying more preasure with the move until the match had to be stopped.

After the match Yamashita said she’s never been merciless up until now and she will be even more merciless in Vegas so she can win the Princess Title. Miyamoto then got to speak about how enthusiastic she is to team with Yuki Arai on tomorrow’s show. She wants their team to win to make it the best graduation ever for Arai. Miyamoto got praised from Yamashita in the backstage comments. Yamashita said it’s really reassuring to team with her and they know how to work together quickly. Tatsumi was upset at Yamashita & Miyamoto for ruining her dream team with Mizuki. She couldn’t save the princess today so she is not qualified to become her knight.

This whole weekend belongs to Arai because she will be graduating from SKE48 tomorrow in order to dedicate the rest of her career to wrestling with Tokyo Joshi Pro. Today she formed an alliance with The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) first to sing together at the start of the show and then to team up for a 10-Woman Tag Match against the 2023 Class in the semi-main event. They all put the other team in their respective submission holds and Miu Watanabe scored the win when Mifu Ashida submitted to the Reverse Paradox. Watanabe in particular was pretty happy to sing an SKE48 song with Arai. The 2023 Class were happy to all be together in one match for the same time although Shino Suzuki had to be on the other team because she’s in The Up Up Girls. Wakana Uehara said she can feel a new wind blowing for them all.

With the trip to Vegas on the horizon, Kyoraku Kyomei wanted to test out their English. Since their opponents today both speak the language, Hyper Misao tried to do her introduction in English and asked them how it went. Kira Summer said that her pronunciation was good but she needs more practice. She said that in English so Yuki Kamifuku had to translate it back to Japanese. Kamifuku’s interpretation wasn’t accurate though. She told the others that Summer said she couldn’t understand why a highly educated graduate from Aoyama Gakuin University is so bad at English? Also Aoyama Gakuin has a lot of cute looking girls but Misao is so plain so what is it like for her to graduate from there? Misao was so hurt by the comments that it gave Kamifuku & Summer and opening to jump them and start the match. Kyoraku Kyomei were able to win and are now ready for Vegas. Shoko Nakajima wants to win big money at the casinos.

To-y Still Injured, Ohka Gets Mochizuki, TJPW Title Matches Confirmed

March 24, 2025

Apparently tomorrow is when the official DDT website gets a makeover while Tokyo Joshi Pro will finally get an official website of their own again. For my own sake I hope it’s not going to make getting info more difficult.

BASARA “BASARA 274 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~”, 25/03/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takato Nakano Vs Shota Kofuji
2. Isami Kodaka Vs Kosuke Sato
3. Daiki Shimomura Vs Keisuke Ishii
4. Masato Kamino Vs Yuko Miyamoto
5. Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ryota Nakatsu V Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Yasu Urano

The match order for tomorrow’s BASARA show is swapped around a little bit.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1”, 26/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Kazusada Higuchi & JJ Furno
2. 3 Way Match: Shishamo Power Vs Takeshi Masada Vs Yuni
3. Falls Count Anywhere Blindfold Scramble Bunkhouse Match: Chris Brookes Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs HARASHIMA Vs Antonio Honda Vs Kazuki Hirata
4. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Preliminary Rumble: Yuki Ueno Vs MAO Vs Shunma Katsumata Vs Daisuke Sasaki Vs Soma Takao Vs Yukio Naya Vs Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuki Ishida
5. Special Tag Match: Takuya Nomura & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku
6. Special Single Match: Fuminori Abe Vs Keigo Nakamura

To-y hasn’t recovered from his injury yet so he will be missing this week’s shows. The show on 26th March now has one less match on it after a bunch of wrestlers were moved around for To-y’s absence.

DDT “O-HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 2”, 27/03/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. 3 Way Tag Match: Makoto Oishi & Akito Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion
2. Maximum Allowance Of 5,000 Yen For Bringing The Weapons Death Match: Takeshi Masada & Keigo Nakamura Vs Yuni & Munetatsu Nakamura
3. Special Single Match: Yuya Koroku Vs JJ Furno
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Danshoku Dieno Vs Kazuki Hirata & Antonio Honda
5. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Hangover 6-Man Tag Match For Losers Of The Preliminary Rumble: X, X & X Vs X, X & X
6. Hanami KING OF DRUNK Final: X Vs X

Not as many changes to Night 2 but a chunk of that lineup depends on how the KING OF DRUNK stuff turns out anyway. Makoto Oishi is now on the show though.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YUKI ARAI’S LAST TWO-SWORD STYLE ~ GO FOR THE VICTORY!!”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall (Nagoya City)

1. Suzume, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko Vs Yuki Aino, Kaya Toribami & Ivy Steele
2. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku Vs Arisu Endo Vs Chika Nanase
3. Maki Itoh Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer
5. Yuki Arai, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami Vs Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro, Toha & Mifu Ashida
6. Mizuki & Rika Tatsumi Vs Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto

At first it seems weird that Yuki Arai’s match isn’t the main event of this show but then I remember she has a concert to prepare for that’s happening at the end. Also there’s a Princess Of Princess Title match that needs to be built up. Priorities, people!

DDT “OWARI WARS 2025”, 29/03/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference

1. 3 Way Match: Yukio Naya Vs JJ Furno Vs Yuki Ishida
2. Daisuke Sasaki, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Yasu Urano & Yuni
3. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Antonio Honda
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yuya Koroku & Kazusada Higuchi
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Akito Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
6. MAO’s Last The 37KAMIINA Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO, Shunma Katsumata & To-y Vs HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Takeshi Masada

DDT have put together a ragtag team for MAO’s last match as a member of The 37KAMIINA. It starts out looking like an all-star squad with HARASHIMA and Danshoku Dieno then we get wacky with Kazuki Hirata and end with a youthful wild card in Takeshi Masada.

DDT “DDT MEET & GREET & FIGHT APRIL”, 03/04/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. HARASHIMA & Yukio Naya Vs Kazuma Sumi & Yuki Ishida
2. Ilusion Vs Yuni
3. Special Tag Match: Yuya Koroku & Keigo Nakamura Vs To-y & Takeshi Masada

The young wrestlers take most of the stage for April’s “MEET & GREET & FIGHT” show including a return to the generational rivalry between Yuni and Ilusion.

DDT “CHANGE AGE 2025 ~YOUR LIE IN APRIL~”, 06/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Toru Owashi & Antonio Honda Vs MJ Paul & Ilusion
1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, Kazuki Hirata & Kumadori Vs Shunma Katsumata, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
2. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Daichi Sato
3. Naomi Yoshimura’s Return Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs Yukio Naya, To-y, Takeshi Masada & JJ Furno
4. 2 Vs 1 Special Handicap Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani Vs KANON
5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Yuki Ueno Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) Vs Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuya Koroku

This looks a little bit awkward. Minoru Suzuki clearly enjoys being in the ring with Yuki Ueno but he did just take the DDT Universal Title away from him. How is Ueno going to act next to him when they team up together? The match is a chance for either HARASHIMA or Danshoku Dieno to nab themselves a future Universal Title shot if things go their way too.

GANBARE☆PRO “MAD MAX 2025 ~ GANBARE☆PRO WRESTLING 12TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 11/04/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Mixed 6-Man Tag Match: Hartley Jackson, Daisuke®️ & HARUKAZE Vs Yasu Urano, PSYCHO & Banny Oikawa
2. Hikaru Sato & Tyson Maeguchi Vs Toru Sugiura & Munetatsu Nakamura
3. Mizuki Watase’s Return Match: Mizuki Watase, Shigehiro Irie, Choun-Shiryu & Rekka Vs Kouki Iwasaki, Takuya Wada, Fuminori Abe & Shota Kawakami
4. Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Yuna Manase, Koguma & Hazuki Vs Moeka Haruhi, YuuRI & Ami Manase
5. Special Single Match: Ken Ohka Vs Masaaki Mochizuki
6. Special Tag Team Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuji Nagata & Tatsuhito Takaiwa
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Shinichiro Tominaga

Here’s the full line up for Ganbare☆Pro’s return to Korakuen Hall. After weeks of searching Ken Ohka found his star opponent. It’s Masaaki Mochizuki from Dragongate! We also have Mizuki Watase returning in an 8-Man Tag (looks to me like he isn’t 100% ready yet) and a reunion of the Hentai Punch Drunkers. Meanwhile Munetatsu Nakamura picked up a friend from his recent FREEDOMS appearance, bringing Toru Sugiura over to team with him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “QUERI PRESENTS TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS”, 18/04/2025
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Special Single Match: Masha Slamovich Vs Miu Watanabe

3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

The three title matches for Las Vegas are now confirmed. Mizuki has taken the risk of choosing Miyu Yamashita for her next Princess Title defence in the hopes she can finally beat her one on one. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara have formed the team Ober Eats to challenge Kyoraku Kyomei for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Last but not least there is the rematch of Suzume versus Jada Stone with the International Princess Title again on the line.
