BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 22: THE BEGINNING IS THE END IS THE BEGINNING”, 27/05/2025
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans
1. Special Tag Team Match: Chris Brookes & Shikaku SAYA (w/ Bunbun) defeated Chie Brookes & Kota Ibushikoshi (w/ Fukafuka) when SAYA pinned Kota Ibushikoshi with the Roll Cake (?:??).
2. Special Single Match: Fuminori Abe defeated Mr. Bueno with the O-Manjigatame (?:??).
3. BK-G Openweight Title: Mr. Malo (c) defeated Antonio Honda with the Unprettier (?:??).
*V1 for Mr. Malo.
4. Special Tag Team Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei (w/ Karate Brahman) defeated Great King Ueki & Munek when Shu & Kei pinned Munek with the Gotai Fumanzoku (?:??).
This is what happens when somebody wants the most complete Brahman Brothers experience. Fans in ARENA Shimokitazawa were warned in advance to cover themselves with ponchos and protect their valuables for the main event because Baka Gaijin + Friends could not promise to protect them from The Brahmans in any way, shape or form. Great King Ueki & Munek weren’t intimidated by the warnings because they were more concerned over their plan to kidnap another princess. They got a woman in the crowd to step into their magical chamber (i.e stand behind the bar) and become their prisoner. This turn of events meant The Brahman Brothers were in fact the unlikely heroes coming to save the day! They were even accompanied by Karate Brahman in a rare public appearance.
The rescue attempt devolved into mayhem in quick fashion. Munek summoned an invisible wall to block his opponents but The Brahmans found a way to spray water passed it. They then proceeded to drench the venue with bottles and buckets of water while brawling with the other team. They opened up space in the room to do their bowling ball into the suitcase spot but Munek did his own magical version in return. That was when Karate Brahman unleashed his secret weapon. He stuck some fireworks up his nose, stripped down to his underwear and started singing while the other Brahmans lit up the fireworks! Ueki then sprayed him with a fire extinguisher which somehow caused Karate to join his side. Ueki stole the black ink from The Brahmans and used it to spit Poison Mist but he missed his target and blinded Karate by accident. The Brahmans then filled a plate with pizza sauce and threw it at Ueki, missing him and hitting Karate in the butt with it instead. Ueki pulled out more fireworks but Munek got pulled in the way of the blast. Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei then rolled up Munek in their Crucifix/Jackknife Pin combo to get the win. Karate Brahman tried to profess his love to the princess that was rescued but he was rejected.
In a much more tame affair, Mr. Malo defended the BK-G Openweight Title against Antonio Honda. The challenger was outmatched by Malo’s holds and had to grab random fans by the head to initiate rope breaks. Once Honda found his groove Malo resorted to cheating. However Honda had him scouted and blocked a Low Blow to keep control of the match. Malo turned things around my deflecting Gongitsune into hitting Daisuke Kiso. He grabbed a beer bottle but Honda took it from him. A recovered Kiso stopped Honda from using it as a weapon, accidentally making him drop it to the ground where it was smashed into pieces! Malo took advantage by giving Honda a Low Blow when Kiso couldn’t see it and he then won by doing the Unprettier onto the broken pieces of the bottle.
Mr. Bueno thought he was ready for a martial arts fight with Fuminori Abe but he was quickly kicked to the floor when the match began. Then as they fought back and forth Bueno wanted to know more about his opponent and asked for his name. When Abe answered him, Bueno confused him for Hiroshi Abe which made Fuminori mad. Bueno then kept confusing him for other famous Abe’s but when he introduced himself, Abe kept thinking his name was Ueno. Later Abe trapped Bueno in the Manjigatame and demanded he say his name right. Bueno fought out of it but when he wound up in the move again he tapped out.
The opening contest was designed to be one team of Chris Brookes & MAO taking on another team of Chris Brookes & MAO. Except the actual MAO was nowhere to be seen. Brookes instead teamed with Sakaya who tried her best to fill the square shaped hole that MAO left behind. The two were also accompanied by Bunbun. Facing them were Chie Koishikawa who was acting like Brookes and Kota Ibushikoshi who was acting like MAO. The two of them were joined by by Fukafuka, a hammerhead shark toy who looked identical to Chie’s usual shark toy Hanma-san. Both Bunbun and Fukufuka were tied to the rubber band for that spot and slingshotted into the wrestlers. The two MAO lookalikes tried to replicate the real thing but needed help to do so. Brookes had to lift up Sayaka and flip her around to make it look like she was doing a Moonsault for example. Also thanks to a slap from the real Brookes, Sayaka was able to roll up Ibushikoshi in the Cake Roll to get the win.
After a lengthy clean up the show ended with an announcement by Shin Suzuki. He will be producing his own show at TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi on 13th September called “STEEL HEART RUN” to celebrate the “10th (+1) Anniversary” of his debut. The +1 is because he’s one year off from when he actually debuted. He originally wanted to face Masahiro Takanashi in the main event but that is not currently possible so Brookes volunteered to be Suzuki’s opponent instead. Suzuki agreed to i and just to prove he won’t take it lightly, he grabbed Brookes by the nose and knocked him off his feet!
The next Baka Gaijin + Friends show will take place on 1st July. Brookes also announced that “FUCKED UP FEST 2” will take place at Tokyo BASEMENT MONSTAR later this year.

6. King Of DDT 2025 – Round 2: Yukio Naya Vs KANON
7. King Of DDT 2025 – Round 2: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Yuki Ueno
Round 2 for King Of DDT takes place this Saturday with eight wrestlers being whittled down to four. DAMNATION T.A have a chance to fill up half of the semi-finals if Daisuke Sasaki and Hideki Okatani both win their matches. HARASHIMA hardly broke a sweat in his 1st Round match though and Yuki Ueno is feeling pretty motivated to climb back to the top of DDT too. KANON is calling himself the “Yukio Naya Killer” because Naya has never beaten him in their previous singles matches. That also leaves Kazusada Higuchi and Takeshi Masada fighting each other over one of the remaining spots.
When Round 2 has been completed a lottery will be held to pair off the semi-final matches.

Since there is no guarantee that the dogs in the main event will behave themselves, Danshoku Dieno decided to book a stable, no nonsense singles match between Akito and Yukio Naya as an insurance plan just in case the main event goes wrong.
The Beer Garden show will also begin DDT’s celebration of Toru Owashi wrestling on their shows for 20 years. He first showed up on DDT’s doorstep in 2005 and he’s been working with the company almost ever since, save for a year long hiatus he took from wrestling in 2011.

He can recently be seen on Tochigi Pro shows as well as HEAT-UP.

It’s back to the boat races for Ganbare☆Pro with an unexpected reunion on the cards. Ken Ohka & Mio Shirai are teaming up again for the first time in 13 years! Back in the Union Pro days they had a tsundere relationship where Shirai dominated Ohka but could never quite want to get rid of him. They had a regular spot where she would submit Ohka with a Headscissors and boy did writing about that in my show reports at the time result in some readers searching my site hoping to find similar fetish wrestling content. WordPress kept track of the search terms back then you perverts!
Oh, also The Great Sasuke and Kyoko Inoue will be on the show too.
BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 22: THE BEGINNING IS THE END IS THE BEGINNING”, 27/05/2025
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
1. Special Tag Team Match: Great King Ueki & Munek Vs Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei
2. Special Single Match: Mr. Bueno Vs Fuminori Abe
3. BK-G Openweight Title: Mr. Malo (c) Vs Antonio Honda
The last Baka Gaijin + Friends show ended with a brand new BK-G Openweight Champion. The next show sees Mr. Malo having his first defence with Antonio Honda stepping up to be his challenger.
Things aren’t going Mr. Bueno’s way lately so maybe a spiritual battle with Fuminori Abe will cure what ails him.
We also last saw Great King Ueki & Munek capture the soul of Ram Kaichow, leaving her body behind as a husk following after them. Are they satisfied with what they got or do they want more? Throwing The Brahman Brothers against them is only going to cause chaos even if no soul catching takes place.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN NERIMA”, 31/05/2025
Tokyo Nerima Coconeri Hall
1. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
Before Yoshiko Hasegawa retires she still has a few things to check off her list. Most important of all is challenging Suzume for the International Princess Title. Her idea got a negative response from some fans but she decided in the end to go through with it and eventually got everyone’s approval. Suzume will earn her 4th defence if she wins this match and that’s about the level her kind of IP Title reign usually reaches.
Jada Stone is advertised for the show. Yesterday she vaguely tweeted “Sadly, All Good Things Must Come To An End…” along with a highlight video of herself. So she’s making it sound like she’s either about to call it quits or she just got signed somewhere.
DDT “NAGOYA FIGHT FEVER 2025”, 01/06/2025
Aichi Chunichi Hall & Conference
1. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Shunma Katsumata & To-y
After Shunma Katsumata failed to win back the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles with NωA Jr. so he gets another title shot this time with The 37KAMIINA. What’s he going to do to get a third chance if he loses to DAMNATION T.A again. Reform ALL OUT?
Minoru Suzuki will be on the show.
GANBARE☆PRO “BLUE VELVET 2025”, 22/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Yoshiko Hasegawa’s Last Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling Match: Moeka Haruhi, Yuna Manase & Banny Oikawa Vs YuuRI, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Riara
Also on Yoppy’s to do list is one final match in GanPro. She reunites with the Ganbare☆Joshi division for her farewell, including the return of Riara to the promotion. Riara has been busy lately doing her best over in Marigold.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 28/06/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi
1. 3 Minute Exhibition Match: Ai Shimizu Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
2. Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Gabai Ji-chan & Mahiro Kiryu
3. Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami
4. Mizuki & Miu Watanabe Vs Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami
The “TJPW INSPIRATION” show is being brought back for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first event at the new TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi venue. The main event sees the two strongest TJPW wrestlers currently in Japan taking on the two youngest members of the roster. The youthful energy of Daisy Monkey will be pitted against the combination of years old wisdom plus earnestness found in Gabai Ji-chan & Mahiro Kiryu.
Plus Hasegawa gets two special matches with special guests involved. The main one is a tag match with against Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase bringing back memories of Actwres girl’z for the three of them. But also there will be a short exhibition match against Ai Shimizu, who has not wrestled since 2017. The two of them once starred in a wrestling themed play together back when they were both actresses and Shimizu was already gone from the wrestling business by the time Hasegawa debuted so they never got to be in the ring together. Hasegawa wanted it to happen so she came up with the idea to do an exhibition match and convinced Shimizu to do it.
GANBARE☆PRO “MIZUKI WATASE 10TH ANNIVERSARY – IT’S A SUMMER FILM 2025”, 26/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Mizuki Watase 10th Anniversary Match – Fluorescent Lighttube Death Match: Mizuki Watase Vs Jun Kasai
This was already announced but I forgot to write about it in the news section until now. Mizuki Watase wants to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of his debut match by fighting Jun Kasai with Lighttubes. He’s a nutjob.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 21: THE BEGINNING OF THE END”, 15/04/2025
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa
??? Fans
1. Acoustic Guitar Death Match: Antonio Honda defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with a Backslide Pin (11:50).
2. Ram Kaichow & Chie Fukukaichow defeated Great King Ueki & Munek when Fukukaichow pinned Munek with a School Boy (7:14).
3. Special Single Match ~Goodbye Keigo~: MAO defeated Keigo Nakamura with the Iai Kick (14:04).
4. BK-G Openweight Title – Triple Threat Match: Mr. Malo defeated Chris Brookes (c) and Mr. Bueno when Malo pinned Bueno with a Cradle (17:50).
*Chris Brookes fails in V2. Mr. Malo becomes the 2nd BK-G Openweight Champion!
There are always alliances to be made and broken in a Triple Threat Match. Add in multiple language barriers and the whole thing becomes a lot more difficult. Chris Brookes tried to set up double team moves with Mr. Malo but they couldn’t figure out what to do. So Mr. Bueno tried to join Brookes’s side only for more confusion to break out, leading to Brookes suffering multiple attacks to his groin. Malo took advantage of the situation by blinding Yukinori Matsui with his poncho so he could give Brookes another Low Blow. Daisuke Kiso then came out as Matsui’s replacement only for Malo to throw him at the other wrestlers. Matsui returned as the match broke down into a free for all. Malo blinded him again and smashed a glass bottle over Brookes’s head for a nearfall. Bueno hit Brookes with the Rolling Glove, then climbed the bar counter to do a Flying Body Press. But when he landed the move on Brookes, Malo suddenly cradled Bueno for the three count to win the match and become the new BK-G Openweight Champion!
After the match Malo in a deep voice called himself today’s star of the show. There is a word in Mexico he can compare Baka Gaijin to and that word is Tonto. The wrestlers are tonto, the audience are tonto and everything in this space is tonto. Viva tonto! He walked off with the title belt, leaving everyone else in Baka Gaijin feeling a little sad to end the show.
Things are going to be different for a few DDT wrestlers now that Keigo Nakamura is going away on an excursion. MAO asked while they were wrestling who will now come pick him up whenever he misses the last train? He then reminisced over memories of his own excursions while he was beating Nakamura up. MAO ultimately wished him luck and said goodbye before he pinned Nakamura with the Iai Kick. Nakamura thanked MAO and told the fans he is going to challenge himself overseas.
Things still aren’t right with Takayuki Ueki and Munetatsu Nakamura. They showed up still possessed by evil spirits and were introduced again as Great King Ueki and Munek. There were changes afoot for Chie Koishikawa as well because she showed up with Ram Kaichow wearing the same makeup. So if Ram is the president that means Chie is her vice president. That’s right, she became Chie Fukukaichow! The two of them stopped Ueki & Munek from kidnapping a fan, foiling their plot to get free drinks poured for them at the bar. The villains tried using magic on their opponents by summoning an invisible wall but it backfired when Ueki ran into it. Chie then pushed Munek into the wall and pinned him with a School Boy to win. But just when it seemed like the day was saved, Ueki used his magical vase to capture Ram’s soul and turn her body into a rambling slave. Before the three left, Ueki threatened that he, Munek and Ram will take Baka Gaijin + Friends to the depths of hell!
Before the first match began, Antonio Honda revealed to Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi that it will be an Acoustic Guitar Death Match. Honda had a guitar with him and said it is allowed to be used as a weapon. However he told Hiroshi that they had to build the match up to using the guitar because even in Big Japan you don’t just immediately hit your opponent with a lighttube. So they wrestled the match as normal until Honda got to the Gongitsune spot. Hiroshi noticed that Honda sounded sadder than usual so he asked if anything happened to him lately? Honda broke down and said his heart was recently broken. He wished he didn’t have a heart because then it wouldn’t hurt so much. Hiroshi passionatly told Honda that having hearts makes humans do what they want and change the world. The speech turned into a song where Honda played the guitar and Hiroshi sang along to it. Then when the song ended Honda hit Hiroshi in the stomach with the guitar and rolled him up in a Backslide Pin for a three count.

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.

*Chris Brookes becomes the 1st BK-G Openweight Champion!
Back in December Chris Brookes made a promise. If he was to successfully defend the KO-D Openweight Title at DDT’s end of the year Sumo Hall show then he will start defending the belt inside ARENA Shimokitazawa. He won that match and wanted to live up to his word at today’s first Baka Gaijin + Friends show of the year. He wanted to do it, Ram Kaichow wanted to have the title match and Daisuke Kiso was ready to let it happen. However a drunk Yukinori Matsui stepped in and stopped it from taking place. He expected something like this was going to happen and he could not let a championship as important as the KO-D Title be defended here. But since Brookes and Kaichow wanted to have a title match so badly, Matsui and Mic Inoue brought along something for them to fight over. It is a homemade title belt called the BK-G Openweight Championship!
Now that a championship match was taking place after all, Matsui and Inoue instantly sobered up to officiate and announce a match that would determine the first ever BK-G Champion. Kaichow blocked the Praying Mantis Bomb and got a nearfall with a Choke Slam. Masahiro Takanashi tried to interfere but it backfired, causing him and Brookes to argue with each other. Kaichow threw Ectoplasm at them but they ducked and Matsui got blinded instead. Kaichow fought off CDK with more Ectoplasm and hit Brookes with the Rainmaker. However Matsui was too blind to see Kaichow pinning Brookes with the Onryo Clutch. Kaichow slapped the sight back into him but left herself vulnerable to a High Kick from Brookes. She kicked out of the Somato but Brookes finally put her away with the Praying Mantis Bomb to win the new title!
How do you do a match to celebrate Antonio Honda’s 20th Anniversary without having Honda there to take part? You send MAO out there dressed in Honda’s gear and have him wrestle as Antonio Honda XL! MAO used many of Honda’s tricks against Hagane Shinno from calling time outs to injuring his knee and telling Gongitsune jokes. When all of that stuff was out of the way, the two traded cradles and nearfalls until the time limit expired. MAO and Shinno raised each other’s hands after the match and left the room together shoulder to shoulder.
Takayuki Ueki was given a surprise opponent in the form of Hideki Suzuki! Ueki requested the match be Best 3 Out Of 5 Falls but immediately lost the first to falls to a Sleeper Hold. Knowing that he can’t beat him in a wrestling match, Ueki then challenged Suzuki to a Push Sumo fight for the 3rd fall. Suzuki easily beat him again. However he didn’t want to let Ueki leave like this so he agreed to fight him for the remaining two falls and if Ueki won the remaining falls he would be declared the winner outright. They decided the 4th Fall would be a game of Jenga but Ueki even lost at that. Fed up with losing, Ueki declared the 5th fall would be a proper wrestling match worth 100 points! Then as soon as the bell rang Ueki pulled out his gun and threatened Suzuki with it. Suzuki went along with Ueki’s demands until he got close enough to disarm him. But Ueki pulled out another gun and we suddenly got a standoff! Ueki shot Suzuki’s gun out of his hand and got cocky, allowing Suzuki to get his gun back and suddenly hold Ueki at gunpoint! Ueki lost his nerve and gave up. When he tried to give a speech after the match, Suzuki shot him in his limbs and walked off.
The opening match saw the return of ChieDK. Takanashi was teaming with Chie Koishikawa which meant Koishikawa got to be Chie Brookes again! Mr. Malo brought a glass bottle to the fight late in the match but Munetatsu Nakamura stopped him from using it as a weapon. Takanashi grabbed the bottle off him but Chie too didn’t want him to swing it at the opponents. Malo and Chie fought over the bottle and Malo ended up physically forcing Chie to smash it over Takanashi’s head. He then rolled up Chie with a School Boy to get the three count.
At the end of the show everyone sang Happy Birthday to Takanashi, MAO and Kiso because they all have birthdays coming soon. Ueki then told them his birthday had already happened (3rd January) so Brookes let him close out the show.
The next Baka Gaijin show will be on 4th March.

7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku
Four teams remain and after next weekend they will be down to two. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara are bonding together with a “Ayase Town Hills New Hills” style and had a much easier time in the 2nd Round than they did in the 1st. The difficulty level for them has ramped way back up because their next opponents are Pompaler. The tactic of Max The Impaler throwing Pom Harajuku at the nearest opponent hasn’t been beat yet in the tournament so far. Kyoraku Kyomei are one step away from reaching the final for a second time. However Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao know full well not to let their guards down now, especially after HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki scored a little bit of an upset to reach this far.
It didn’t take long for the newcomer Mifu Ashida to be thrown into the ring with Mizuki. The champ needs some fresh meat.

6. DDT Universal Title: Gringo Loco (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa
Chris Brookes has figured out he cannot become stronger than Shuji Ishikawa, but he can become more handsome than his challenger. He has been taking care of his face by wearing face masks every day until the show takes place. He also promised to win the match so Ishikawa will not sing karaoke in Korakuen Hall again.
Only a one count will be needed to win the DDT Extreme Title match. Danshoku Dieno came up with the idea because he wants to see Gorgeous Matsuno fight with all of his might. The most important thing in life is the next second in front of you. A person’s experience does not matter if they don’t make the most of that second.
