8. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Zara Zakher with the Tear Drop (15:38).
*V5 for Miu Watanabe.

After losing to Zara Zakher twice this year, Miu Watanabe finally got to get a win back and under important circumstances. With this fifth successful Princess Of Princess Title defence, Watanabe now has the second most defences in a single reign behind Miyu Yamashita’s 10 win streak from 2018/2019. Zakher relied on the same game plan she used to beat Watanabe previously, using a backflip to avoid the champ’s attack and countering with the RKO. However this time Watanabe was able to block the Control Z, use a Double Hammer strike to fend off Zakher’s Lariats and countered a Jumping Knee Strike with a Power Slam. With Zakher’s offence nullified, Watanabe used the Laser Beam followed by the Tear Drop to win the match.

Watanabe told the fans how happy she was to defend the title in Osaka. She called Zakher a scary opponent for beating her twice before but it was also really fun to wrestle somebody as talented as her. Backstage she said she wants to get closer to Yamashita’s record for most title defences. She was asked by the interviewer if she has any thoughts about the 4th January Korakuen Hall show. Watanabe hasn’t thought about it yet because she was so focused on today. She is aware that anyone could come out to challenge her for the title on that show. Whoever it will be, she won’t turn them down. Zakher thought the atmosphere wrestling in Osaka was great and different from Tokyo. She promised to get more experience and come back to Tokyo Joshi Pro with the goal of winning one of the championships. Any of them will make her happy because she wants to win gold.

We’re not getting a two-time winner for the Next Generation Tournament because Wakana Uehara is out after the semi-finals! Haru Kazashiro scored the upset of the tournament by fighting out of the Banana Pillow submission and using the Fisherman Suplex to pin Uehara. Kazashiro admits she was worried because Uehara is the strongest of the 23 year old wrestlers in TJPW and Kazashiro is not very good at believing in herself. When she did win the match her head was feeling all over the place and took a moment before she realised the crowd were cheering for her victory. Uehara is upset she couldn’t make it to the final on 22nd November especially since she knows some of her fans already bought tickets to the show expecting to see her in that match.

Toga will be meeting Kazashiro in the final after she defeated Kira Summer. The combination of the Rolling Thunder and Rock Bottom gave Toga the victory. She feels vindicated because last year she was eliminated in the semi-finals in the same venue. She thought she would face Uehara in the final so it would be her chance to avenge last year’s defeat. However she didn’t expect to see Kazashiro beat Wakana. Toga is still motivated none the less. Shinjuku FACE is where her debut match was so she is excited to have the final be held there. Summer feel frustrated because everything she has done up to now was for this tournament but the difference in experience between her and her seniors is still wide. She knows she will get there eventually, she just doesn’t have the experience yet.

The Up Up Girls performed their brand new song “SEED” at the start of the show.

Brahman Kei made his first public appearance in Michinoku Pro over the weekend after getting surgery to remove a tumor.

Two singles matches building up the next KO-D Tag Team Titles match are happening here. Shunma Katsumata can take a big scalp if he can beat Tetsuya Endo by himself. Yuya Koroku has a recent pinfall win over Katsumata but can he get the same result against MAO?

GANBARE☆PRO “WHERE EAGLES DARE 2024”, 17/11/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

The main event was originally meant to happen in August but the show was cancelled over typhoon concerns. It took a while to reschedule it but Ken Ohka got a date where Shuji Ishikawa is available to be on the show so they can challenge Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles.

HARUKAZE still has not won a match since Ganbare☆Pro went independent. She hopes teaming up with Black Menso-re is what she needs to finally grab a win for herself. Moeka Haruhi has PSYCHO as her partner to try and continue HARUKAZE’s losing streak.

Ishikawa coming over means he will be bringing someone else from Evolution with him to represent the promotion. Soy is still in her rookie year as a wrestler. Her outsider opponent on the other team is Nanami from Diana.

DDT “NEVER MIND 2024”, 22/12/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Tomohiro Ishii Vs Yuki Iino

DDT wants to end 2024 on some high notes by running a Korakuen Hall show and a Sumo Hall show in the last few weeks of December. For Korakuen Yuki Iino is getting a singles match against Tomohiro Ishii! What will it be like when a Stone Pitbull is BURNING?

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”, 28/12/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. O-MENZ Kumadori Debut Match: Kumadori Vs X
2. Haruto Sakuraba Debut Match: Haruto Sakuraba Vs X
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

I have to say I didn’t expect to see Chris Brookes win the KO-D Openweight Title from Shinya Aoki. Even more so I didn’t expect the next Sumo Hall main event to be Brookes Vs Sasaki for the belt. Sasaki is sick of hearing people like Brookes in DDT talk about love and dreams. He is more motivated to make the lives of those people a living hell than he is to become the champion again.

More personalities from the entertainment world are coming to make their pro wrestling debuts in DDT. This time it is a masked man named Kumadori from the “Dance Terrorist Group” O-MENZ. According to Kumadori he is one of the most muscular members of the group and he wants to unleash his breakdancing wrestler skills in the ring. This deal came together when Kumadori met Sanshrio Takagi through a mutual acquaintance. He told Takagi directly that he wanted to give wrestling a try. I looked up some O-MENZ videos online and I think the closest comparison I can think of is they’re like a Japanese version of Jabbawockeez.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MAHIRO KIRYU TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~TOKYO JOSHI SHINOYABO~” Results

November 3, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MAHIRO KIRYU TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~TOKYO JOSHI SHINOYABO~”, 03/11/2024
Gunma G-Messe Main Hall C (Takasaki City)
262 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Uta Takami with the Muffler Hold (7:14).
2. Kaya Toribami & Toga defeated Suzume & Haruna Neko when Toribami pinned Neko with the Sento Choryu (8:47).
3. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi defeated Pom Harajuku and Arisu Endo when Tatsumi pinned Harajuku with the Sliding Hip (8:04).
4. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Wakana Uehara defeated Chika Nanase with the Banana Pillow (8:23).
5. Maki Itoh & Kira Summer defeated Shoko Nakajima & HIMAWARI when Itoh submitted HIMAWARI with the Itoh Deluxe (11:07).
6. Mizuki, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Miu Watanabe, Raku & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (12:09).
7. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Miyu Yamashita & Moka Miyamoto when Kiryu pinned Miyamoto with the Spinebuster (12:40).

Even in her hometown Mahiro Kiryu cannot help but take responsibility for everything that happens around her. She aplogised early in the match for her part in promoting the show to make Gunma a more appealing place to visit. Yuki Kamifuku then instructed her to bow to all four sides of the room. Kamifuku was also there to even the odds when Kiryu had to fight Miyu Yamashita. Kamifuku poked Yamashita in the eyes and took her out with the Famouser. It was all up to Kiryu from that point on and she was able to beat Moka Miyamoto with the Spinebuster.

Kiryu was happy to see so many people from Gunma come to see the show today because it is her first time wrestling here. When she first started her wrestling career she made so many people worry for her and today she got to prove to them she is doing well. Kamifuku praised her for working so hard and also thinking of ways to repay her hometown. The Toyo Mates then decided to apologize in the ring together to end the show. Kiryu is very sorry about today and she loves Gunma! Backstage Kamifuku said when she saw Kiryu from a distance today she looked like Shohei Ohtani. She likes to think Kiryu is a two-way player too by being a kind person as well as a pro wrestler, so she might start calling her “Shohei From Gunma” from now on.

Things are currently on track for Wakana Uehara to become a repeat winner of the Next Generation Tournament. She had to fight off Chika Nanase from using the Inari Torii to spin her into the Banana Pillow for the win. She’ll be facing Haru Kazashiro in the semi-finals and does not know what to expect in their first singles match against each other. One thing’s for sure is she thinks she definitely won’t lose. Nanase was disappointed because she thought she gave it her all but it wasn’t good enough. She’ll have to start from scratch so when she does her best the next time, she will win.

GANBARE☆PRO “HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER 2024”, 03/11/2024

1. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Harutoki
2. Moeka Haruhi & Yuna Manase Vs HARUKAZE & YuuRI
3. Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Tsuyoshi Okada Vs Shuichiro Katsumura, Shota Kawakami & Hiroaki Moriya
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Naoki Tanizaki & Kohei Kinoshita
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Hartley Jackson

Keisuke Ishii has mindset of a challenger going into next weekend’s show even though he is the defending Spirit Of Ganbare World Champion. All of his favorite wrestlers growing up beat strong foreign opponents so he would like to do the same. However Hartley Jackson’s stock in Japan has been rising lately with appearances in New Japan, All Japan and GLEAT. If Ishii can beat him then he will tie the record for most SOG Title defences.

Things are a little different for Mizuki Watase. He sees Ishii as a fortress that protects Ganbare☆Pro. Watase & Shigehire Irie however see themselves as an attacking force that invades other fortresses. That’s why he is excited for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles defence against the Osaka team of Naoki Tanizaki & Kohei Kinoshita. It will be in a GanPro ring but it will also be in Osaka so who truly has the homefield advantage?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

October 27, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 27/10/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
350 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Arisu Endo & Toga defeated Kira Summer & Chika Nanase when Endo submitted Nanase with the Camel Clutch (9:20).
2. Haruna Neko Return Match: Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko, Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu when Aino pinned Neko with the Venus DDT (10:18).
3. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Haru Kazashiro defeated Uta Takami with the Fisherman Suplex (6:49).
4. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Runa Okubo with two Famousers (8:15).
5. Moka Miyamoto & Kaya Toribami defeated Shoko Nakajima & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Miyamoto submitted Hasegawa with the Rashomon (12:38).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Rika Tatsumi & HIMAWARI when Yamashita pinned HIMAWARI with a Buzzsaw Kick (12:30).
7. Miu Watanabe & Wakana Uehara defeated Mizuki & Shino Suzuki when Watanabe pinned Suzuki with the Tear Drop. (11:59).

After the main event Miu Watanabe threw her support behind Wakana Uehara for the Next Generation Tournament. She’ll be cheering her on and encouraged Wakana to talk about it because she loves her enthusiasm. Uehara said she will definitely win the tournament for the second year in a row.

Today is the last time we’ll see Runa Okubo in a wrestling ring, at least for now. She is going on an indefinite hiatus to focus on her high school education so for her final match she got to face the person she most admires on the roster, Yuki Kamifuku. For the occasion Kamifuku used the Famouser twice to win the match before hugging Okubo afterwards. Okubo thanked everyone for taking care of her for the last year and seven months. Thnaks to pro wrestling she was able to meet so many wonderful people and she will love them always. Backstage Kamifuku said Okubo is at a sensitive point in her life because of her age and she wants her to live her life well. It’ll up to “that brat” Okubo to make the most of it. Okubo said she is sorry for her fans and her parents that she hasn’t shown her true potential yet. She wants to work hard and not make excuses.

The other two teenage girls on the roster faced each other in the Next Generation Tournament. Haru Kazashiro got the win over Uta Takami by hitting the Low Cross Body followed by the Fisherman Suplex. Kazashiro is said that Okubo is going away but knows it isn’t a goodbye so she wanted to show her how much she has grown. She is also glad to see how much Takami is having fun with wrestling every time they meet in the ring. Kazashiro wanted to win the match today not to crush Takami’s potential but to expand it even more. Takami admitted she went into the match with fake confidence to convince herself that she would win. She realised during the match that it was a bad idea because whenever she senses genuine intensity it feels different.

Haruna Neko is finally back after spending so long recovering from a torn ACL and torn meniscus in her left knee. The Love Triangle celebrated her return by all wearing cat ears before the match began. The ring rust still needs to be shaken off because Neko dropped the fall in her first match back, losing when Yuki Aino dodged the Nekodebreaker and pinned her with the Venus DDT. Aino had kind words to say about Neko’s return and believe she found a way to still get stronger during her recovery. Also according to Nao Kakuta online she was at the show today to see Neko’s return match.

The teams for the Rakuhan Vs Pom-chan Army team challenged on 10th November were picked before today’s show began. The Rakuhan consists of captain Raku, HIMAWARI, Ryo Mizunami, Ram Kaichow, Haru Kazashiro, Yuki Arai, Shino Suzuki and Chika Nanase. The Pom-chan Army is captain Pom Harajuku, Kaya Toribami, Mahiro Kiryu, Yoshiko Hasegawa, Uta Takami, Haruna Neko, Kira Summer and Toga. The winning team will receive 10kg of broiled eel as their prize because the show is now being sponsored by the Yamada Suisan seafood company.

Hyper Misao announced her return match from injury will take place on 22nd November. She has been out of action since April with a fractured ankle she suffered at the “GCW VS TJPW” show in America.

There will be a weekend of shows in January where TJPW will be at Mizuki and Yuki Aino’s hometowns. Mizuki’s show in Kobe is on 11th January and Aino’s show in Okayama is on the 12th.

Okubo’s final match for now will be against Yuki Kamifuku. Her opponent is not going to take it easy on her though. Kamifuku said she is going to pluck out Okubo’s eyes and sell them off like jewelry!

BASARA “BASARA 260 ~KOO~”, 30/10/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Isami Kodaka & Ryuichi Sekine Vs Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita

Over the weekend BASARA announced that Daiki Shimomura’s one year suspension had come to an end and he will be returning to wrestling at the end of this month. Shimomura was suspended from all BASARA related activities last October over an incident that was only reported as inappropriate behavior from his private life. To this day I still haven’t heard anything to even suggest what the incident was. But it was enough that BASARA had to make a public apology afterward while Shimomura had to disappear from wrestling for a year. His return match has him in the ring with the other members of Sento Minzoku.

8. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Chris Brookes

All of the Right To Challenge Shields have been used up so now its back to traditional ways to get title matches. Chris Brookes challenged Shinya Aoki for the KO-D Openweight Title to see which one of them loves DDT more.

The feud between SCHADENFREUDE International and DAMNATION T.A continues with Takeshi Masada and Ilusion facing each other one on one. Ilusion wants to destroy Masada’s pretty face!

An all mascot showdown is taking place thanks to Pokotan and Touchi-kun. Originally Pokotan wanted to fight the Japan Self-Defence Force mascot but changed his tune after watching Touchi-kun’s training for the match. Now Pokotan wants to team up with Touchi-kun to take on another tag team. DDT held a press conference today annnouncing that the other team will also be made up of mascots. Oshinari-kun is the mascot for the Oshinari Shopping District and Higapyon is the mascot of Tokyo Higashi Shinkin Bank, the business that owns the naming rights for the venue. Shinichiro Kawamatsu brought the two mascots to a shrine for the announcement but didn’t expect Pokotan to show up and attack Oshinari-kun with a steel basin! However he held back from attacking Higapyon because he thinks that mascot is cute.

Tickets for the show are free so there are a lot of sponsorships up and down the card to fund the event.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

October 19, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 19/10/2024
Miyagi Yume Messe Miyagi West Building Hall
159 Fans

1. Moka Miyamoto defeated Chika Nanase with the Rashomon (6:44).
2. 3 Way Match: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Kaya Toribami and Haru Kazashiro when Kiryu pinned Kazashiro with the Spinebuster (8:01).
3. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Kira Summer defeated Shino Suzuki with the Samoan Drop (6:14).
4. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Maki Itoh, Toga & Uta Takami when Aino pinned Takami with the Venus DDT (11:32).
5. Mizuki defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Cutie Special (9:54).
6. Rika Tatsumi & Suzume defeated Shoko Nakajima & Wakana Uehara when Suzume pinned Uehara with the Ring A Bell (13:51).
7. Miu Watanabe & Arisu Endo defeated Yuki Kamifuku & HIMAWARI when Watanabe pinned HIMAWARI with the Tear Drop (12:46).

Miu Watanabe celebrated her 25th birthday (it was also Sayuri Namba’s 31st birthday) by picking up the win with Arisu Endo in today’s main event. Since she is another year older she has noticed the wrestlers younger than her are getting stronger so she cannot afford to lose against them. She also enjoyed wrestling in the Sendai region again because it’s been a year since Tokyo Joshi Pro last held a show here. Endo said she wants to conquer Tohoku too!

Match #4 began with all of Love Triangle deciding to fall asleep in the ring instead of shaking their opponents’ hands. Maki Itoh knew what they were up to though and told Toga & Uta Takami to take a nap with her too. Pom Harajuku got up to attack Itoh but was Cradled into a nearfall instead. Itoh was then able to get everyone crowded up in the corner to do the World Cutest Knuckle Punch on Yuki Aino, Raku & Harajuku. Somehow Harajuku got her hands on a Date Masamune helmet and put it on to power herself up.

One of the semi-finals of the Next Generation Tournament is now set. Kira Summer won her opening round match by beating Shino Suzuki. She countered Suzuki’s Sleeper Hold by standing back up to reposition Suzuki into the Samoan Drop for the victory. Summer said it feels like a dream and she will carry Suzuki’s feelings along with her own for the rest of the tournament. She will be facing Toga in the next round. Suzuki is despondent over losing and doesn’t know what to do anymore. She works hard but now she is losing to her juniors. She thought she would start catching up to her peers but now it feels like she can’t even have the chance to do that anymore.

Mahiro Kiryu pretended to be the referee and body checked her two opponents before the 3 Way Match began. She then ordered Kaya Toribami and Haru Kazashiro to fight each other before attempting to roll them up in a bid to quickly win the match. She of course apologised for her behaviour when the plan didn’t work.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

October 13, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 13/10/2024
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube
218 Fans

1. Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki defeated Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase when Suzuki submitted Nanase with a Body Choke Sleeper Hold (10:12).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Raku and Uta Takami when Mizuki pinned Takami with a Roll Up (7:38).
3. Kaya Toribami defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Sento Choryu (8:36).
4. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Miki Fortune & Kira Summer when Tatsumi pinned Summer with the Twist Of Fate (10:04).
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Toga defeated HIMAWARI with the Rock Bottom (10:19).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Punish (13:16).
7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku with the Tear Drop (14:32).

Autumn is the season for art in Japan so Pom Harajuku drew a portrait of Miu Watanabe for the main event. She then took out a blank canvas and asked Watanabe to draw a portait of her in return but it was just so she could roll her up from behind for a nearfall. Harajuku then hit Watanabe over the head with the canvas and used the frame to trap her and Suzume together. Later Suzume landed a Plancha onto Yuki Aino and Watanabe scored the three count on Harajuku with the Tear Drop. After the match Suzume admitted art was is a bit difficult for her.

A few days ago Tokyo Joshi Pro announced 121000000 will defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against Vert Vixen and Nicole Matthews in Seattle on 9th November. They used today’s match as a warmup to see just how sync they are at the moment. Itoh said she still has trauma from losing the Princess Tag Titles the first time around in Los Angeles so she won’t let her guard down. Yamashita told her the match will be in Seattle this time so she needn’t worry about the trauma anymore.

Kira Summer and her visiting sister Miki Fortune teamed together in TJPW for the first time. Together their team name is Chaos Hunt! However the closely knit duo lost to Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo when Endo threw away Fortune with the Waterwheel Drop leaving Tatsumi to pin Summer with the Twist Of Fate. Chaos Hunt were still happy with how the match went and think they showed the fans what their natural tag team chemistry is like. A reporter later asked them if they would like to have a singles match against each other. Fortune is up for it but Summer knows her sister would kill her and she’d rather stay in one piece.

The Next Generation Tournament began with a bit of an upset because one of last year’s finalists has already been eliminated! HIMAWARI won’t be repeating her success here after Toga beat her with the Rock Bottom. Toga said she felt the pressure of being in the tournament opening match especially one that fans were expecting to be good. HIMAWARI said she wasn’t taking the tournament lightly at all but she learned a harsh lesson that everyone else is growing just as much as she is. She will now face the winner of Shino Suzuki versus Kira Summer in the semi-final.

The match for Haruna Neko’s comeback on 27th October has been announced. She will team with Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu to take on Love Triangle.

7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume Vs Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku

It’s been so long since TJPW had a tag team of sisters. Kira Summer is bringing over her sister Miki Fortune to team up together. Fortune’s a bit of a wild one so anyone expecting her to act just like Summer will be in for a surprise.

The Next Generation Tournament begins with on this show.

Shoko Nakajima will be in America for Deadlock Pro competing in the Battle Of The Best final so she will be missing this show. Yuki Kamifuku will also be absent because she will be defending the Asian Double Crown over in the Philippines.

Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

5. KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi, Takayuki Ueki, Takeshi Masada & Mecha Mummy Vs Keigo Nakamura, To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi

A team of five from DDT’s new generation are going to challenge for the KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Titles. SCHADENFREUDE have Takayuki Ueki subbing in for Antonio Honda but he was part of the team when they originally won the belts anyway. So it may as well be the champions entering the match at full force.

MIKAMI makes another DDT appearance this year.

One day before the DDT Extreme Title is defended, Akito and Danshoku Dieno are facing off in a wacky tag match with Pokotan and Yoshihiko also involved. The stipulation for the title match hasn’t been chosen yet but it would be leaving it very late if this match is meant to set it up.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024”, 20/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Super Sasadango Machine & Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi

5. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
6. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA

I bet it will have changed by the time this show happens but the two remaining Right To Challenge Shields are both currently being held by Soma Takao.

DDT “AKOS X DDT EKIMAE PRO WRESTLING”, 26/10/2024
Saitama AKOS Event Square

1. Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Shunma Katsumata Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi
2. Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Jun Akiyama, Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura
3. The 37KAMIINA Vs SCHADENFREUDE International!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada

DDT is holding a few matches at a shopping area in Saitama. It is an outdoor show so bad weather on the day could cancel the event. The show notes say it can go ahead if it’s light rain but anything that can be described as stormy will call it off.

DDT “CHARISMANIA”, 06/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. KUBITO & Naohiro Katsumi 19th Anniversary Match: KUBITO Vs Naohiro Katsumi
2. The Greatest Wrestling Match Of CHARISMANIA: Daisuke Sasaki & Yuko Miyamoto Vs Dick Togo & Minoru Fujita

Also booked for the show are KANON, MJ Paul, Demus, Ilusion, Diego and Anarko Montaña.

Next Generation Tournament ’24 Brackets

October 4, 2024

A draw was held today to determine the bracket for the upcoming Next Generation Tournament starting this month. There was also the announced that the winner of this year’s tournament will be rewarded with a future championship match. They will get to choose if they want a shot at the Princess Of Princess Title, the Princess Tag Team Titles or the International Princess Title.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 13/10/2024
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1A: Toga Vs HIMAWARI

One of last year’s finalists opens up the tournament this time around. HIMAWARI is nervous but fired herself back up after Toga said she can only see herself winning this match. Toga also said the tournament feels fresher this year because of the inclusion of the 2024 Class.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 19/10/2024
Miyagi Yume Messe Miyagi West Building Hall

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1B: Shino Suzuki Vs Kira Summer

The announcement of this year’s tournament is bittersweet for Shino Suzuki because it reminds her that she watched last year’s final from ringside. It will be her first time wrestling somebody from the 2024 Class in a singles match and she is certain she has skills that Kira Summer does not have. Summer agrees that she is lacking in experience but believes in her own strength that she can win.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 27/10/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1C: Haru Kazashiro Vs Uta Takami

Just like Suzuki, Haru Kazashiro does not want to be standing in the sidelines watching the final again. She is determined not to lose in the 1st Round again and the reveal that the tournament winner gets a title shot is motivating her even more. Uta Takami is excited to enter her first tournament. It also makes her happy that her first opponent is Kazashiro and the match will be at Ryogoku KFC Hall because she loves both of them. She also said she is good at Rock-Paper-Scissors and that’s a good thing because luck might be a factor in who goes through.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MAHIRO KIRYU TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~TOKYO JOSHI SHINOYABO~”, 03/11/2024
Gunma G-Messe Main Hall C (Takasaki City)

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1D: Wakana Uehara Vs Chika Nanase

Round 1 closes out with last year’s winner Wakana Uehara aiming to go two in a row. She wrestled Chika Nanase in a singles match back in June and sensed she has a hidden power, so she can be a threat. Nanase felt scared of this match at first but realised how big of an opportunity it is. You never know what will happen in pro wrestling so Nanase made it her goal to beat Uehara and knock her out of the tournament!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2024”, 16/11/2024
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Winner Of Match 1A Vs Winner Of Match 1B
2. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Semi Final: Winner Of Match 1C Vs Winner Of Match 1D

The first semi-final will be the winner of Toga/HIMAWARI against the winner of Suzuki/Summer. The second semi-final is the winner of Kazashiro/Takami against the winner of Uehara/Nanase. We could get a rematch from last year’s tournament depending on how the results go. HIMAWARI Vs Suzuki perhaps?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: X Vs X

The final will determine who will be the next challenger for one of the Princess Championships. Uehara and HIMAWARI could meet each other in the final again for the second year in a row. What if Toga gets a chance at revenge on Uehara or maybe even Kazashiro settles the score with HIMAWARI?
