Tokyo Princess Cup 2024 Brackets

July 25, 2024

The bracket drawing for the Tokyo Princess Cup was held in Shibuya during the week with the majority of the entrants in attendance. Those who could not be there for various reasons included Ryo Mizunami, Yuki Arai, Suzume, Pom Harajuku, Runa Okubo and Zara Zakher. Everyone who did attend all gave comments about their first matches and tournament goals.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 28/07/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1A: Yuki Arai Vs Kaya Toribami
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1B: Arisu Endo Vs Miu Watanabe
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1C: Runa Okubo Vs Yuki Aino
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2A: Shino Suzuki Vs Suzume
5. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2C: Mizuki Vs Moka Miyamoto
6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2E: Pom Harajuku Vs Yuki Kamifuku

Yuki Arai and Kaya Toribami debuted in the same year just a month away from each other and are of similar age. They’ve never had a singles match against each other until now and Toribami wants to give it her all so she can win.

Miu Watanabe pointed out she can achieve the Grand Slam of all Tokyo Joshi Pro accomplishments if she can win the Princess Cup. That means winning every TJPW championship and tournament. Arisu Endo is having a lot of tag team success lately but wants to focus on winning a singles tournament by herself this summer.

It’s been a frustrating time for Yuki Aino because she feels there are wresters in TJPW who become so amazing that she is not good enough to fight them. However she knows how many people support her and have high expectations for her. She wants to spend her hot summer smashing through the competition.

Shino Suzuki has had a couple of singles matches against Suzume a few times already but has never beaten her. She will do her best to beat her for the first time.

The two time winner Mizuki says she is aiming to reach the top yet again. However she admits it gets lonely up there so she wants everyone to support her. Moka Miyamoto doesn’t want to let her do that though. She wants to prove she is the best just like Mizuki does.

Every year Yuki Kamifuku tells people she hates competing in tournaments. But recently especially after she reached the final last year fans have encouraged her to do her best. Even her mother scolds her for being so negative about it. So this year Kamifuku is taking a more cheerful approach to being in the tournament.

1. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2B: Winner Of Match 1A Vs Wakana Uehara
2. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2D: Winner Of Match 1B Vs Zara Zakher
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2F: Winner Of Match 1C Vs Shoko Nakajima
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2G: Rika Tatsumi Vs Toga
5. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2H: Haru Kazashiro Vs Ryo Mizunami

Whoever wins between Arai and Toribami, either will be a first time opponent for Wakana Uehara. She is determined to win no matter who she faces.

Zakher’s first match in the tournament will be against either Watanabe or Endo.

She feels bad for saying this but Shoko Nakajima wants Aino to beat Okubo so she can face her in Round 2. After the match she had against Aja Kong, Nakajima feels the need to evolve in order to survive in TJPW. For this tournament she wants to grab a hold of something new and break out of her shell. Even then it won’t mean anything unless she wins the tournament again.

For Rika Tatsumi the Princess Cup is the fastest way for her to get another shot at regaining the Princess Of Princess Title. Whether she fights against rookies or veterans she is going to destroy them all this summer! Toga knows just how crazy Tatsumi gets in her matches. She will try to surpass that craziness to advance to the next round.

Due to scheduling, Ryo Mizunami’s bracket spot was automatically placed in Round 2 in the beginning before any other drawing was picked. Haru Kazashiro is a little scared to be her opponent because of the difference in strength but also thinks she is lucky to get such a big opponent in her first tournament appearance.

Tokyo Princess Cup 2024

June 29, 2024

2024 sees the eleventh edition of the Tokyo Princess Cup taking place with a few outside factors effecting things. 19 entrants are taking part in the single elimination tournament spread across five rounds. The bracket is on a fixed structure until the semi-finals when those pairings will be determined by a lottery.

Miu Watanabe (6th Appearance)
Suzume (5th Appearance)
Arisu Endo (4th Appearance)
Yuki Arai (4th Appearance)
Yuki Kamifuku (6th Appearance)
Mizuki (8th Appearance, 2019 & 2020 Winner)
Shoko Nakajima (11th Appearance, 2015 Winner)
Rika Tatsumi (9th Appearance)
Yuki Aino (6th Appearance)
Pom Harajuku (4th Appearance)
Moka Miyamoto (4th Appearance)
Kaya Toribami (3rd Appearance)
Wakana Uehara (1st Appearance)
Toga (1st Appearance)
Shino Suzuki (1st Appearance)
Haru Kazashiro (1st Appearance)
Runa Okubo (1st Appearance)
Ryo Mizunami (1st Appearance)
Zara Zakher (1st Appearance)

Due to some international bookings taking place around the same time, several TJPW wrestlers will not be entering this year’s tournament. That includes last year’s winner Miyu Yamashita. She along with Raku, Mahiro Kiryu and HIMAWARI are not taking part because they will be wrestling at the “EVE X TJPW” show in England the same weekend as the Princess Cup’s final rounds. Maki Itoh is not entering either because she is touring America with GCW throughout August. Other missing names are because of injury (Hyper Misao and Haruna Neko) or because first year rookies were not included (Chika Nanase, Kira Summer, Uta Takami) Yamashita’s absence means Shoko Nakajima is the last person left to have taken part in all eleven Princess Cup tournaments. Very fitting given her reputation for how well she usually performs in the tournament over the years. Ryo Mizunami is a rare freelance entry and due to her schedule her first match in the tournament must happen on 3rd August. Zara Zakher becomes the first ever foreign wrestler to be included in the field (unless you count Sakisama).

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BEAT POWER ’24” Results

February 24, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BEAT POWER ’24”, 24/02/2024
Osaka Edion Arena #2
349 Fans

1. Chika Nanase Debut Match: Moka Miyamoto defeated Chika Nanase with the Rashomon (4:39).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Pom Harajuku and Haru Kazashiro when Kamifuku pinned Kazashiro with the Famouser (6:44).
3. Juria Nagano defeated Kaya Toribami with the Senpukyaku (7:23).
4. Maki Itoh & Raku defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Shino Suzuki when Itoh submitted Suzuki with the Itoh Deluxe (13:00).
5. Bite Into The Sour And Sweet And Never Miss An Opportunity Rules: Hyper Misao defeated Nao Kakuta with a Gedo Clutch (10:01).
6. Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi & Mizuki defeated Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI & Toga when Mizuki pinned Uehara with the Diving Foot Stomp (13:54).
7. Miyu Yamashita, Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino Vs Miu Watanabe, Suzume & Arisu Endo ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).

The main event was a preview for two of the big title matches being held at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”. It ended without a winner since the match lasted the entirety of the 20 minute time limit. The champion team were in trouble heading into the late end of the bout. Miu Watanabe held Miyu Yamashita in the Canadian Backbreaker and Arisu Endo hit Ryo Mizunami with the Mt. Bandai. However Yuki Aino blocked Suzume’s Ring A Bell and placed her in the Full Nelson Of Love And Flame instead. She tried to finish her off with the Venus DDT but Suzume fought her off until the bell rang for the finish. Aino didn’t expect Suzume to be so persistent but it made her look forward to the Sumo Hall tag match even more. Mizunami wanted to beat Daisy Monkey quickly so they can move on to Sumo Hall. Both Suzume & Endo told Yukiniki they will not lose. Neither will Yamashita, she said she is going to use all of her power to beat Watanabe.

The match between Hyper Misao and Nao Kakuta had a special rule attached to it. Whenever one of them reached for a rope break they would have to drink a glass of undiluted lemon juice within a time limit or be disqualified. The same rules were used two years ago during the last time Misao and Kakuta wrestled each other in a singles match. Kakuta won that match but Misao claims that since then she has learned about the depth of life by seperating the sweet and the sour. She proved it by beating Kakuta to avenge the loss from two years ago.

Maki Itoh picked up the win in her return to action. She told the fans she didn’t have much to do during her seven week break and if it wasn’t for pro wrestling she would be as good as dead. Today she feels alive again! She was so excited she only got one hour of sleep last night. Raku made up for it by getting 10 hours of sleep which is the perfect combined amount for two people.

For her last match in Osaka, Juria Nagano got her hand raised by beating Kaya Toribami. It just so happens to be her first ever singles match victory too! It’s been her goal since last year to win a singles match so she thinks all the hard word and strategy paid off. She is also happy she got to wrestle Toribami because she always got advice from her whenever they trained together.

The debut of Chika Nanase saw her lose to Moka Miyamoto by submission. She struggled to break past Miyamoto’s defence so only got to show off Elbow Strikes and Shoulder Blocks. Her big mistake came from trying to use a Body Slam but she was unable to lift Miyamoto with it. Miyamoto then turned things around and submitted Nanase with the Rashomon. Nanase described wrestling a real match feels different than being in a training match. She could clearly see the fans in the crowd supporting her and motivated her. She wants to grow into a pro wrestler who can make everyone smile.

At the start of the show it was announced that Yamashita will be going on another American tour in April after Tokyo Joshi Pro’s USA show happens on 5th April. The excursion will go on for over two months and her first match back in Japan will be on 15th June. She hopes to defend the Princess Of Princess Title against Watanabe at “GRAND PRINCESS ’24” so she can bring the belt with her and defend it across many different promotions in America.

Toy Kojima No More?! Chika Debut Match, More Title Matches At Grand Princess

February 13, 2024

DDT “NEPPA OVER FLOWERS 3 ~TOTONOI TO YOU~”, 14/02/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Hideki Okatani, Yuni & Ilusion Vs Takeshi Masada, Kazuma Sumi & Rukiya
2. Yakushiyu Presents ~DDT Sauna Club Vs DDT Open Bath Club~: Kazuki Hirata & Tonttu Naya Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Makoto Oishi
3. Aqua Yu-kari Presents ~Shunma Katsumata’s Sauna Room~: Shunma Katsumata Vs Kuroshio TOKYO Japan
4. SeaSaunaShack Presents ~Mao Inoue’s Sauna Room~ – Ring-Out 3-Count Match: MAO Vs Chris Brookes
5. Hokuoh Presents ~Toy Kojima’s Sauna Room~: Toy Kojima Vs Masato Tanaka
6. KO-D Openweight Title ~Naniwa Kenko Land-Yu Presents Yuki Ueno’s Sauna Room~: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno

History shows every time MAO and Chris Brookes are in the same match together they end up fighting each other out of the ring and a Countout result becomes inevitable. A fed up Yukinori Matsui said changing the countout to ten, five or even three seconds is enough to solve the problem. But when MAO and Brookes heard him say a three second countout they fell in love with the idea and want their match tomorrow to follow that rule. Since The 37KAMIINA are in charge of tomorrow’s show, the rule is going to be used.

Toy Kojima will be wrestling under a new name for his match against Masato Tanaka. He wants to fight against the unknown and change himself because he sees tomorrow as a new beginning for The 37KAMIINA.

Most of the matches will have sponsored prizes on the line given to the winners.

BASARA “BASARA 242 ~UTAGE~”, 20/02/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Lil’ Kraken Vs Kengo Mashimo
2. Daichi Kazato & X Vs Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
3. Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu Vs Takumi Tsukamoto & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi
4. FUMA, KUBITO & Yasu Urano Vs SAGAT, Masato Kamino & Gouma Ryu
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Takato Nakano

Kengo Mashimo from 2AW pays another visit to BASARA. This time around he is being kept away from Isami Kodaka. Instead he’s coming over to fight Lil’ Kraken.

I can’t even guess what kind of mystery wrestler Daichi Kazato would go out and find to team with him.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BEAT POWER ’24”, 24/02/2024

6. Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi & Mizuki Vs Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI & Toga
7. Miyu Yamashita, Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino Vs Miu Watanabe, Suzume & Arisu Endo

It’s champions versus challengers in a big preview for Sumo Hall one month later! Miyu Yamashita and Ryo Mizunami just had their first match together over the weekend. They were opponents there and this time they are on the same side. Miu Watanabe has to swallow a little bit of her pride because she is teaming with Daisy Monkey, the team that just beat Daydream to win the Max Heart Tournament.

Maki Itoh returns to the ring back in fighting form.

We got the announcement of Kirra and Uta making their debuts soon. Those keeping track may have noticed there is another trainee from that class who seemed to be left out. Well it turns out she is going to debut soon too, even sooner in fact. Chika will have her first match just over a week before Kirra and Uta will. Moka Miyamoto will be her opponent.

This will be Juria Nagano’s final match in Osaka before her graduation from Tokyo Joshi Pro.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’24”, 31/03/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Miu Watanabe

After so much struggle, Daisy Monkey are about to finally reach the top of TJPW’s tag division. All they have to do now is beat Yukiniki for the Princess Tag Team Titles. It will be Mizunami & Yuki Aino’s first defence so they will not want to lose the belts so quickly.

A glamorous fight for the International Princess Title has been put together. Yuki Arai was challenged by Yuki Kamifuku, who is looking to become a double champion. Would the IP Title look that nice next to the Queen Of Asia Title?

6. DDT Universal Title: MAO (c) defeated Demus with the Cannonball 450 (14:38).
*V1 for MAO.
7. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Road To D-Oh Grand Prix Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Chris Brookes, & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Tetsuya Endo, Yukio Naya & Kazuki Hirata (c) when Ueno pinned Hirata with the WR (23:38).
*Yuki Ueno becomes the 1,594th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: MAO defeated Yuki Ueno (c) with a School Boy (8:18 pm).
*MAO becomes the 1,595th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: The Great Koji defeated MAO (c) with a Cradle (8:19 pm).
*The Great Koji becomes the 1,596th champion.

Several of the participants in the D-Oh Grand Prix faced off in a 6-Man Tag main event. Yuki Ueno got the win for his team, pinning Kazuki Hirata to become the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion in the process. That didn’t last long because after his victory speech MAO rolled him up to win the title and then he lost it to The Great Koji. But more on that later. The wrestlers in the main event all gave their comments for the upcoming tournament after the show. Ueno said what happened to him today is a reminder not to make any stupid mistakes. His goal is to win the D-Oh so he can nominate Konosuke Takeshita as his next challenger. Kazusada Higuchi is taking part not only as a representative of Harimao but also as one half of the IRON FIST Tag Team Champions in BASARA so he is tightening up his game. Yukio Naya wants to make up for last year’s disappointment of finishing as the runner up. His first opponent is Chris Brookes and Naya is confident he will beat him. Brookes said he won the King Of DDT and KO-D Openweight Title this year so he is going to win the D-Oh and make it a “Perfect Three”. Tetsuya Endo said four of the wrestlers in the main event are champions but he isn’t one of them. He not only wants to become a champion again, he also wants to see how much of an impression he can leave on fans. Last but not least, Kazuki Hirata announced he is now graduating from the main event scene! He’s tired of it and it’s starting to dawn on him just how difficult the D-Oh is going to be. He still wants to win it though no matter how dramatic it will get.

MAO found himself a tricky first challenger for the DDT Universal Title but he figured him out by the end. Demus mixed together some lucha submissions with a few dirty tactics and his Kinniku Buster finisher, La Valagueza. However MAO kicked out of it and when Demus used the referee as a shield, MAO leapt over him to catch Demus with a Stunner. MAO eventually hit the Cannonball 450 to win and keep the title. He praised Demus for being an interesting opponent the likes of which he never fought before. MAO wants this title reign to show fans different worlds of pro wrestling. He has not decided on his next challenger yet. Instead his focus is on the D-Oh. Demus, using Daisuke Sasaki as his interpreter, said MAO’s style of Lucha Libre is the Tohoku style while his own lucha is world class. He thinks the next challenger should be his wife Hiroka because she is more stronger than he is!

Today DDT got to experience The Great Nita and a new tag partner very similar to him. Atsushi Onita’s alter ego now has an ally in the form of The Great Koji, a new alter ego for Toy Kojima. Together with HARASHIMA they had a chaotic fight against Jun Akiyama, Bodyguard & Makoto Oishi. It ended with Nita & Koji both using a chain to hang Oishi by the neck over the ring apron until Oishi gave up. Backstage Nita & Koji gave a hint that they next want to fight for the All Asia Tag Team Titles. Koji reappeared at the end of the show to win the Iron Man Title. In the aftermath DDT determined that Toy Kojima and The Great Koji are completely different people. That means the Iron Man Title will change hands again only when Koji loses to somebody, not Kojima.

Bodyguard is sticking around a little bit longer because he has a problem with D.O.A. His theme song is called “DEAD OR ALIVE” so it is unacceptable that somebody else in wrestling is using the phrase! He challenged D.O.A to a KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles match. If D.O.A wins then they get his blessing to continue using the name. But if Bodyguard wins he gets the titles and the team name! He wants his team to be completely made up of wrestlers from Osaka. Tsutenkakka volunteered to be part of the team and was accepted. Bodyguard said he will decide on the other member when the date of the title match is determined.

In the lead up to the show Daisuke Sasaki teased his match with Takeshi Masada was going to be Hair Vs Hair. He even took out a pair of scissors during the match and tried to cut off Masada’s locks. Masada fought back to take the scissors off him and he tried to cut Sasaki’s hair too. The rest of the match went on without incident.

Danshoku Dieno continues to fill his mouth with wasabi paste to power up the Lip Lock.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2023” Results

November 19, 2023

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2023”, 19/11/2023
Osaka Edion Arena #2
413 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Next Generation Tournament ’23 – Semi-Final: HIMAWARI defeated Shino Suzuki with the Princess Drop (8:09).
2. Next Generation Tournament ’23 – Semi-Final: Wakana Uehara defeated Toga with the Modified Sleeper Hold (8:02).
3. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Hyper Misao, Mahiro Kiryu & Haru Kazashiro when Raku pinned Kazashiro with the Doctor Yellow (10:16).
4. Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Runa Okubo when Noa pinned Okubo with the Running Neckbreaker Drop (11:18).
5. Yuki Arai, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Moka Miyamoto, Juria Nagano & Kaya Toribami when Arai pinned Toribami with the Finally (8:49).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
7. International Princess Title: Max The Impaler (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Short-Range Lariat (10:49).
*V2 for Max The Impaler.

It’s not often that Shoko Nakajima feels intimidated by her opponent but she admitted today was the first time she felt a little scared having to fight Max The Impaler. She had good reason to feel that way because her attacks had little effect. Max caught her on dives and when Nakajima did a Dropkick, Max fired back with one of her own. Not even the Diving Senton landing on Max’s back while they were down on the ring apron gave Nakajima the advantage for long. In the end Max caught her with the Short-Range Lariat to defend the International Princess Title for a second time.

After the match Pom Harajuku entered the ring and congratulated Max on their victory. She thinks they can win the Princess Tag Team Titles together and bring them to Osaka the next time they come back. Harajuku then played interpreter after Max roared. She explained that was just Max asking fans to come see the Tag Title match on 1st December. Backstage Nakajima said Max reminds her of the new Godzilla movie she just watched. There is a line in the movie about how you can kill Godzilla but he still won’t die. She thinks that can be applied to Max too.

The final match between The Magical Sugar Rabbits and Daydream has been on Yuka Sakazaki’s mind for months. The two teams were meant to face each other for the Princess Tag Titles back in June but Sakazaki had to pull out due to her neck injury and Mizuki fought Daydream by herself in a rare 2-Vs-1 Handicap match. Sakazaki felt responsible for putting Mizuki in that situation and wanted to make it up for her with this match. The result was the teams fighting each other to a 20 minute stalemate. Sakazaki shook hands with Rika Tatsumi afterwards and then hugged Miu Watanabe when he noticed her crying. Backstage Sakazaki said she was happy to have the match but disappointed there was no winner because she isn’t sure if there will ever be a rematch. She praised Watanabe for her growth and wants her to become a leader for Tokyo Joshi Pro. That’s how high her hopes are for her. Tatsumi is certain MagiRabi Vs Daydream will happen again someday.

Mahiro Kiryu wanted the teams in Match #3 to be changed around because she believes the trio of Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku are unbeatable. The others agreed but their solution was to all attack Kiryu to make the match 5 against 1. Kiryu used her apology spot to take back her idea and the match returned to the original teams as advertised.

The final of the Next Generation Tournament has been decided. The first portion of the show featured the two semi-finals where Wakana Uehara submitted Toga and HIMAWARI pinned Shino Suzuki. This is the first time HIMAWARI won a match by pinfall.

Uehara pointed out she and HIMAWARI debuted on the same day so they are often compared to each other by people around them. HIMAWARI still remembers losing to Uehara by submission in their previous singles match together. She wants to get revenge for that.

Production of Hyper Misao’s replacement superbike the Hypami Go will soon begin. However Misao needs to use a crowdfunding site to afford it and will start up a campaign soon. She told fans the more support she gets the more powerful the bike will be.

5. Special Single Match: Tetsuya Endo Vs MJ Paul
6. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toy Kojima Vs Chris Brookes, Akito & Yukio Naya

We get to see Yuki Ueno and Chris Brookes against each other again eleven days after “ULTIMATE PARTY 2023”.

It should be no surprise to see that Demus has sided with DAMNATION T.A during his stay here. He’ll delight in helping Daisuke Sasaki torment Yuni.

Yesterday Jun Akiyama announced he will be leaving BURNING by the end of the year. So this might be the last time Yusuke Okada teams with him in a regular tag match.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW CITY CIRCUIT ’23 ~NAGOYA IPPONJIME~”, 26/11/2023
Aichi NGK Sports Plaza 3rd Stadium

1. Arisu Endo Vs Runa Okubo
2. Suzume Vs Haru Kazashiro
3. Hyper Misao Vs Raku
4. Shoko Nakajima & Kaya Toribami Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Viva Van
5. Miyu Yamashita, Mahiro Kiryu & Toga Vs Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & HIMAWARI
6. Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta & Shino Suzuki Vs Max The Impaler, Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku
7. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto

It’s a big deal for Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto to be getting one of the last Magical Sugar Rabbits matches while Yuka Sakazaki is still here. Another sign that the promotion is backing Miyamoto a bit more lately.

The semi-main event is a preview of the Princess Tag Team Titles match. Free WiFi gets a taste of what Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku will throw at them. I mean it will mainly be Max throwing Pom at them but maybe Yuki Aino can help with giving them other ideas.

This will be Viva Van’s first match with Tokyo Joshi Pro. Can’t imagine her not getting along with Yuki Kamifuku.

Wakana Uehara is not on the show because she has a stage performance going on somewhere else that day.

DDT “D-OH GRAND PRIX 2023 IN SHINJUKU DAY 1”, 02/12/2023
Shinjuku FACE

5. D-Oh Grand Prix 2023 – B Block: Yukio Naya Vs Rei Saito
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Soma Takao & Shota (c) Vs Toru Sugiura & Akito

It will be a battle within the Young Communication generation for ROMANCE DAWN’s next KO-D Tag Team Titles defence. Akito isn’t happy to see Shota & Soma Takao surpassing him with their recent success when for years he’s been positioned on a level above both of them. He is bringing in Toru Sugiura, the current KING Of FREEDOMS champion to try and take the tag belts off them. Sugiura was a regular part of the Monthly Young Communication shows that DDT’s rookies at the time put together during the early 2010s along with Akito, Shota and Takao.

Trivia King Death Match, MAO Ready For Demus, Max And Pom Chase The Champs

November 14, 2023

DDT “GET ALIVE 2023 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 16/11/2023
Shinjuku FACE

1. Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku Vs Noriyuki Yoshida & Rukiya
2. Soma Takao, Shota, Tetsuya Endo & Yukio Naya Vs Sanshiro Takagi, HARASHIMA, Kazusada Higuchi & Akito
3. Special Single Match: Demus Vs Kazuma Sumi
4. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles 1-DAY Tournament – Round 1: Chris Brookes, Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda Vs Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi
5. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles 1-DAY Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Toy Kojima Vs Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul
6. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Did you Know!? Past → Present DDT Trivia King Death Match: Kazuki Hirata (c/c) Vs MIKAMI
7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles 1-DAY Tournament – Final: X, X & X Vs X, X & X

The DDT Extreme Title match is being built entirely around the history of DDT. The title will be defended in a Trivia King Death Match! Kazuki Hirata and MIKAMI will wrestle as normal but when a fall is won, the winner must answer a trivia question about DDT. If they get it correct then they win the match. If they get it wrong then the loser gets to answer and if the loser gets it right, the match will continue. If the loser also answers incorrectly then a new question will be asked to the winner. This continues until one of them gives a right answer. The questions will be determined by a panel of 100 people selected from the DDT Legend Executive Committee which consists of 1000 members. The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title is also on the line but as always there is a risk Hirata could lose it to someone else before the match takes place.

MIKAMI is confident he will win and show off the history of DDT while doing it. He still vividly remembers the day when the championship was created and Sanshiro Takagi rewarded it to him. MIKAMI said when he is champion he wants to have matches as intense as those from his first reign and he will nominate Takagi as a challenger. Hirata believes if he can successfully defend the title against MIKAMI then he is good enough to break the record for most Extreme Title defences. Hisaya Imabayashi gave MIKAMI an example question to test him out. Who was the first KO-D Openweight Champion? MIKAMI struggled to come up with an answer while Hirata calmly said he knew. MIKAMI eventually figured it out and correctly said it was Masao Orihara.

With the retirement of Saki Akai having taken place, the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles are now vacated. The tournament to crown the next champions will be between The 37KAMIINA, DAMNATION T.A, the one-off trio called D.O.A and the newly established SCHADENFREUDE International.

The new DDT Universal Champion isn’t waiting to have his first title defence. Right after MAO won the title he nominated his upcoming opponent Demus as his first challenger. MAO was pulled from yesterday’s Houseboat Pro Wrestling match to recover after Sunday’s match with Matt Cardona. A check up showed no injuries and he is cleared to wrestle again this week.
