TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GO DO IT”, 05/05/2022
Osaka Edion Arena #2
348 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Yuki Aino defeated Haruna Neko with the Venus DDT (6:51).
2. Osaka Ultra Quiz Match: Hyper Misao (2) defeated Kaya Toribami (1) (10:24).
2a. Kaya Toribami (1) defeated Hyper Misao (0) with the answer “Kenchiki” (0:25).
2b. Hyper Misao (1) defeated Kaya Toribami (1) with the answer “Taro Okamoto” (7:34).
2c. Hyper Misao (2) defeated Kaya Toribami (1) with the answer “Abeno Harukas” (10:24).
3. Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta defeated Raku & Pom Harajuku when Kakuta pinned Harajuku with the Shiden Kai (8:40).
4. Yuna Manase defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Lariat (7:02).
5. Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Miyu Yamashita & Miu Watanabe when Kamifuku pinned Watanabe with the Famouser (16:17).
6. Osaka Special 8-Woman Tag Match – Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Shoko Nakajima, Mizuki, Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi (2) defeated Yuki Arai, Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo (0).
6a. Rika Tatsumi submitted Arisu Endo with the Dragon Sleeper (16:01).
6b. Shoko Nakajima pinned Yuki Arai with the Diving Senton (13:48).

A team of champions old and new achieved a clean sweep against the “1998 Class” of Tokyo Joshi Pro by winning two falls to zero in the main event. Rika Tatsumi stepped in for Yuka Sakazaki and scored the first fall by making Arisu Endo submit to the Dragon Sleeper. The 1998 Class scrambled to even the score in the second fall. Moka Miyamoto & Yuki Arai both went for Shoko Nakajima & Maki Itoh while Suzume & Endo targeted Mizuki. That backfired when Mizuki wiped out most of the opposition with a dive to the outside. Nakajima then finished things off by beating Arai with the Diving Senton. Nakajima said it wasn’t an easy victory but as long as she is the Princess Of Princess Champion she cannot afford to lose.

The tall ladies Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku were victorious over Momoiro Sparkling. The latter team attempted their new finisher Kick de Bakoon! on Kamifuku but Akai stopped the move from happening. Akai and Miyu Yamashita cancelled each other out with their kicks so it was up to Kamifuku to break the deadlock by pinning Miu Watanabe with the Famouser. Akai remembers the first time she met Kamifuku was at a DDT show when Kamifuku wasn’t even training to be a wrestler. She thought a pretty girl like her would make a good wrestler but was worried Kamifuku would get the same criticisms she got when she was a rookie. After today Akai has seen how much Kamifuku has improved since their last match together and would like to work with her again, either as a team or as opponents. She will continue looking over her like a sister living next door.

The quiz match between Hyper Misao and Kaya Toribami involved trivia about Osaka. The goal was to answer two questions correctly while they wrestled each other.

6. Osaka Special 8-Woman Tag Match: Shoko Nakajima, Mizuki, Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai, Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo

No title changes for Tokyo Joshi Pro yesterday so that means Shoko Nakajima and Mizuki are added to tomorrow’s main event. Rika Tatsumi takes Yuka Sakazaki’s place on the team after Sakazaki was invited by AEW to enter a qualifying match for the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. She takes on Riho for a spot in the tournament on the next episode of Rampage.

It’s going to be a busy summer for CDK. They are butting heads with MAO in DDT, reigning over everything in ChocoPro and now are getting challenged over in Ganbare☆Pro.

GANBARE☆PRO “A HOMANSU 2022”, 14/05/2022
Chiba 2AW Square

1. Punch Drunker Vs Strong Zero Drunker: Tyson Maeguchi Vs Soma Takao
2. Nippon University Alumni Association In 2AW Square: Ken Ohka Vs Kyu Mogami
3. Special Tag Match: Shigehiro Irie & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Naoya Nomura & Mizuki Watase
4. Shinichiro Tominaga 2nd Hometown Triumph Match: GENTARO & Yasu Urano Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Shinichiro Tominaga
5. GanJo Super Fight In Chiba: Moeka Haruhi & YuuRI Vs HARUKAZE & Ann Cham
6. Yuna Manase Triumphant Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yumehito Imanari, Kaji Tomato & Yuna Manase Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shota & Ayame Sasamura

Remember that story about how a young Shinichiro Tominaga once tried to get into K-DOJO? That’s why he considers Chiba his second home. Both GENTARO & Yasu Urano were involved with K-DOJO at the time Tominaga tried to get in. After all these years will they accept the wrestler he has grown into?

It was a big surprise to see Naoya Nomura show up yesterday asking to wrestle a match in Ganpro. He and Mizuki Watase have formed team in Capture International called REAL BLOOD and they are ready to show it to a new audience. Watase wants everyone to know that he wrestles in other places besides Ganpro so an alliance like this did not come from out of nowhere.

GANBARE☆PRO “WRESTLE SEKIGAHARA”, 10/07/2022
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Special Tag Match ~ CDK Vs ROMANCE DAWN: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Shota & Soma Takao
2. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Ken Ohka

The biggest match in Ganpro history is set. Ken Ohka founded Ganpro in 2013 and Yumehito Imanari was his very first signing. Fast forward to 2022 and they will fight each other in a headline match at Ota Ward Gymnsium. Imanari’s newly won Spirit Of Ganbare Title will also be on the line.

Shota & Soma Takao are having a blast teaming together as ROMANCE DAWN. They now want to take on the best teams around and that means CDK are in their sights. CDK are ready for them but are a little confused that ROMANCE DAWN have not asked for any of their tag team championships to be on the line. For now the match is non-title and advertised as a special attraction.


Yes! Wonderland Title Matches, Saiki’s Final Cheer, Sakazaki Going Back To AEW

April 30, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND 2022 ~SPREAD THE WINGS OF YOUR DREAMS~”, 03/05/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Exhibition Match: Reika Saiki Vs Arisu Endo
2. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Haruna Neko & Kaya Toribami
3. Suzume Vs Julia Nagano
4. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai Vs Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku
5. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Hikaru Shida & Moka Miyamoto
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Hyper Misao

The contracts for the two title matches were signed at the beginning of today’s show. Shoko Nakajima was coming in with tremendous confidence after wrestling in England this past week but Hyper Misao would later put a damper on her with today’s result. Misao does not know what the qualifications of a champion are other that they believe in themselves. She’s been believing in herself lately so maybe that is proof Hyper Misao is ready to become the Princess Of Princess Champion. Misao also said Nakajima’s strength is having “hero power” like a shonen manga protagonist. No matter how much adversity she faces, she turns it into power to fight back. Nakajima though admits her weakness is leaving her guard down so she has to be careful if Misao pulls out any tricks.

Free WiFi claim they have a lot of respect for The Magical Sugar Rabbits because they are the dominant tag team in Tokyo Joshi Pro. This will be the third time Hikari Noa is challenging for the Princess Tag Team Titles. She thinks she has to win it here because it took her three tries to win the International Princess Title. Her tag partner Nao Kakuta admits Free WiFi have not teamed for very long but they will still fight to become TJPW’s top tag team. Mizuki called them out for behaving like good girls here when in the ring they are not good girls at all. Yuka Sakazaki does not think the challengers have a single advantage over them.

One more match for Reika Saiki as part of her retirement from pro wrestling and it is a special one. She is getting three minutes in the ring with Arisu Endo. Both women are former members of the Cheer♡1 idol group and they were cast under the same role in the unit. It was Saiki’s work as a wrestler that inspired Endo to become one herself so it is a dream come true for Endo to wrestle her right at the end of Saiki’s career.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GO DO IT”, 05/05/2022
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Yuna Manase Vs Mahiro Kiryu
2. Miyu Yamashita & Miu Watanabe Vs Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku
3. Osaka Special 8-Woman Tag Match: Yuki Arai, Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo Vs Maki Itoh, Princess Of Princess Champion & Princess Tag Team Champions

TJPW announced that earlier this week AEW contacted them asking for Yuka Sakazaki to wrestle a match in America next week. After discussions over scheduling and travel, an agreement was made on short notice. Sakazaki will still be at the 3rd May show in Korakuen Hall but will not be part of their aftershow promotional event taking place later in the evening. She also will no longer be on the 5th May show in Osaka. Right now the date for her return is publicly unknown. May is a light schedule for TJPW. Their next show after the 5th is on the 15th and the only other one after that is on the 29th. So I say there’s no rush for her to get back to Japan immediately. The likely move is to put her in a qualification match for the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament and see where she goes from there. Or maybe she’s the one MJF hired to take down Wardlow, I dunno.

Yuna Manase returns to take on Mahiro Kiryu. The two were on opposite sides at Sumo Hall back in March for the TJPW Vs Ganbare☆Pro tag match.

The remaining card will not be decided on until after the 3rd May show takes place. If The Magical Sugar Rabbits are still the Princess Tag Team Champions going into Osaka then Sakazaki’s spot in the main event will be replaced by someone else.

The Golden Week pro wrestling schedule is about to begin or already begun depending on what companies you follow. I’m feeling antsy about it this year because over the last few days several wrestlers from across the scene have tested positive for covid. I wouldn’t be surprised if there will be more wrestlers getting sick and pulling out of these upcoming shows. Fingers crossed that everyone stays safe over the busiest time of the year in puroresu.

7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Tatsuhito Takaiwa (c) Vs Yumehito Imanari

In a Yahoo interview promoting the show, Shuichiro Katsumura calls his match a Ganbare Pure Blood Tag Match. He wants to have a match that will make fans think he should be the next challenger for the Spirit Of Ganbare Title.

Earlier this week Moeka Haruhi tested positive for covid and missed the Pocchari Joshi show. She will also be absent from this show. Yuu Yamagata takes her place in the mixed tag match. It’s a chance for HARUKAZE to show her first hand how much she has grown since they were last together.

A donation box for Shinjiro Otani will be set up in the venue. Ganbare☆Pro will also be selling Otani portraits with all proceeds going toward his medical expenses.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GO DO IT”, 05/05/2022
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Miyu Yamashita & Miu Watanabe Vs Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku
2. Osaka Special 8-Woman Tag Match: Yuki Arai, Suzume, Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo Vs Maki Itoh, Princess Of Princess Champion & Princess Tag Team Champions

The aftermath of Korakuen Hall will be filled with matches based on the results of that show. Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku wanted to team together so they will get a match against Momoiro Sparkling. It will be interesting to see how Akai and Miyu Yamashita will act towards each other. Their history in Tokyo Joshi Pro has been retconned into Yamashita feuding with Sakisama. But if anyone asks one doesn’t have anything to do with the other, wink wink.

The very first Pocchari Joshi show was built around Yumehito Imanari taking on his muse Yuna Manase. To celebrate the brand’s 3rd anniversary it is time to run that match back!

As mentioned in the match title, Maika Ozaki is an accomplished high school weightlifter turned pro wrestler. She was trained by Manase in Actwres girl’Z and spent most of her wrestling career as a freelancer, although most of her time is spent in Ice Ribbon. Kind of surprising then it took her this long to show up in Ganbare☆Pro given her connection with Manase.

All four Tokyo Joshi Pro champions will team together for an 8-Woman Tag Match in Osaka. However since the Princess Of Princess Title and the Princess Tag Team Titles are being defended on 3rd May, there may be new champions teaming with Maki Itoh by the time this match happens. TJPW don’t want to tip their hand here. So Itoh will team with Nakajima or Hyper Misao and Magical Sugar Rabbits or Free WiFi.

Saki Akai will be on the show.

4. DD Army Vs ALL OUT!: Danshoku Dieno & Maku Donaruto Vs Akito & Shunma Katsumata ended in a No Contest (14:10).
5. O-40 Title – Recycling Death Match: Sanshiro Takagi (c) defeated Ken Ohka with the Himawari Bomb onto a plastic case (12:40).
*V1 for Sanshiro Takagi.
6. DAMNATION Vs DISASTER BOX!: Shuji Ishikawa & Tetsuya Endo defeated Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura when Ishikawa pinned Yoshimura with the Fire Thunder (17:08).
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki & Soma Takao (c) defeated Jiro Kuroshio & Kazusada Higuchi when Sasaki submitted Kuroshio with the Crossover Face Lock (17:22).
*V6 for DAMNATION.
8. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) defeated Shinya Aoki by TKO with the Walls Of Takeshita (16:45).
*V2 for Konosuke Takeshita.

Just like in their last singles match, Konosuke Takeshita decided to wrestle barefoot against Shinya Aoki. Takeshita went for the Walls Of Takeshita but Aoki positioned himself into a Triangle Choke. Takeshita powered out of the move by lifting up and slamming down Aoki. He then reapplied the Walls Of Takeshita and kept the pressure until Aoki went unresponsive. Yukinori Matsui stopped the match and declared Takeshita the winner.

Takeshita expressed his sincere gratitude to Aoki after the match. He was then told that the next KO-D Openweight Title defence will be at Sumo Hall on 3rd November. No challenger was decided yet so Takeshita had an idea. Since “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019!” is bringing together all of the DDT brands, he wants to find out who the absolute best wrestler in DDT is. That means the KO-D Champion and the DDT Extreme Champion should face off in a double title match! Hisaya Imabayashi reminded him that the current Extreme Champion Jiro Kuroshio is defending the title against HARASHIMA and Tetsuya Endo in a 3 Way Match on 29th September. They confirmed that the winner and champion coming out of that match will face Takeshita in Sumo Hall.

Sadly for Kuroshio he didn’t add the KO-D Tag Team Titles to his possessions. He and his “brother” Kazusada Higuchi were defeated by DAMNATION. Higuchi got rid of Soma Takao and left Ikemen to seal the deal. Kuroshio blocked Daisuke Sasaki’s La Mistica Cross Facelock and turned it into a Tombstone Piledriver. However Ikemen’s Moonsault ended badly when Sasaki caught him and applied the Crossover Face Lock for the submission win. Akito came out and challenged DAMNATION for the Tag Titles on 29th September. His partner is the “TV Star” Yuki Iino! He has been away from wrestling the last few months working on a TV drama called No Side Game.

Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura are now called Nautilus. The team impressed Shuji Ishikawa, he called them amazing talents. He also likes tagging with Tetsuya Endo and suggested the idea of the two of them facing off against Sasaki & Takao sometime.

The Recycling Death Match featured plenty of items from DDT’s history. A lot of it was trash left around in storage but some of the items do have some history to them. There was the dojo’s vacuum cleaner from 2015, an office heater from 2016, plastic cases from this year, the bear traps from the 2018 Super Sasadango Machine Vs Jiro Kuroshio match, 200 empty beer cans that they never threw out after one of this year’s earlier Beer Garden shows, Mecha Mummy’s weapons from 2006 and finally a big electric signboard T that was part of a stage prop from DDT’s first ever Sumo Hall show back in 2009. The last one still works. Sanshiro Takagi threw Ken Ohka onto the T with the Spicolli Driver then pinned him with the Himawari Bomb through a plastic case. Takagi and Ohka agreed to repair the T and use it at next year’s Saitama Super Arena show.

The pairing of Danshoku Dieno & Maku Donaruto acted exactly how we thought they would. They got their hands all over Akito & Shunma Katsumata until Yukinori Matsui called off the match.

MAO brought along the two glass globes he has earned so far from the Tenkaichi Jr. tournament in ZERO1. He and HARASHIMA defeated Jun Masaoka & Kohei Kinoshita. HARASHIMA commiserated his opponents afterwards.

Yuni was able to pin Puma King with a Hurricanrana because all of the other wrestlers in the Battle Royal piled on top of them. Yuni was declared the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion but Kazuki Hirata quickly pinned him with the Egoist Driver to win the belt. Saki Akai won it next then Asuka pinned her with the ASUKA FANTASY to win both the title and the Battle Royal itself. Hirata got the belt back after the match with a School Boy then Puma King got the last title switch with the Puma Kingdom.

The debuting Cody Hall showed his strength by throwing around Yukio Sakaguchi, Lariating Yukio Naya and pinning Mizuki Watase with the Thunder Buster.

Osaka Edion Arena #2
417 Fans

6. Sakisama, Misao & Martha (w/ Yukio Saint Laurent) defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi & Antonio Honda when Misao pinned Tatsumi with the Vanitas (15:16).
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) defeated Mizuki with the Diving Senton (16:44).
*V2 for Shoko Nakajima.

For the second year in a row the Tokyo Princess Cup winner has failed to win their Princess Title challenge. The champion Shoko Nakajima appeared with the original TOKYO Princess Title belt and was given the new 2nd Gen Princess Title belt after defeating Mizuki. The match took a lot out of the wrestlers. Nakajima couldn’t hold her pinning posture after hitting the Northern Lights Suplex. She was able to keep control and pinned Mizuki with the Diving Senton. In her backstage interview, Mizuki admitted that she is not the kind of person who wants to be a main character yet this past summer she overcame many challenges. So she was in fact motivated to become the main character. It was a hard summer for her but she still had fun.

When Nakajima received the new belt she said it felt like she just won a championship for the first time again. She wants to continue winning matches so she can get familiar with holding the belt. Misao came out and congratulated Nakajima, then gave her condolences because today will be the last time Nakajima successfully defends the title. Misao already has the Princess Tag Titles but that is not enough to satisfy her. Nakajima accepted her challenge. She ended the show by saying Osaka has been invaded by the Big Kaiju. She next wants to invade all of Japan!

The entire active members of NEO Biishiki-gun were victorious over the trio of Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi & Antonio Honda. The maid Martha used her mop as a weapon and Yukio Saint Laurent used his injections to knock out Honda & Sakazaki. Tatsumi continued to fight on her own but Misao pinned her with the Vanitas. Sakisama credited her presence in Osaka as the reason why the Hanshin Tigers won their baseball game today.

Gotta give it to Maki Itoh, she was just as determined to scare Su Yung with her screams as Yung was trying to scare her. Their screams together were enough to scare away Daisuke Kiso. Yung blinded Itoh with Red Mist but Itoh tried to fight on by applying a Sleeper Hold. Yung countered it by lifting Itoh onto her shoulders to do the Panic Switch for the win.

After last week’s career high, Natsumi Maki was sent crashing back down to Earth when Yuna Manase pinned her in a trios match. Manase used a Lariat to counter the Backlash. They talked about their history together and how they are like sisters. That led to Manase challenging Maki for the International Princess Title. Maki accepted and said she won a championship within four years of wrestling while Manase hasn’t won any title in seven.

Momoiro Sparkling bounced back from their failed Princess Tag Titles match last week by beating Gisele Shaw & Yuki Kamifuku. Shaw is still looking for a way to avenge her defeat in England to Miyu Yamashita.

The hometown hero Himawari Unagi picked up the win in her tag match.

Mirai Maiumi won her first singles match by beating the other rookie Suzume. Maiumi entered the ring with a Japanese fishing flag with a good fortune written on it. She explained that she grew up near the ocean and her ring name also contains the kanji for “Sea” (海 / umi). She wants to express the feeling of the ocean when she wrestles.

Ohka’s example is the jacket and ten gallon hat he wore during his absence from Ganpro shows last year.

Cody Hall is the mystery wrestler in the opener. He met Antonio Honda and got along with him because the Gongitsune hand gesture resembles the Wolfpac gesture that Cody’s dad Scott Hall is known for.

The campsite match this year also serves as a preview for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019!”. Every team represents a different brand. DDT has HARASHIMA, Honda & Kazusada Higuchi on one team and Takeshita, MAO & Ueno on another. BASARA is sending Isami Kodaka, FUMA & SAGAT rather than wrestlers from just one unit. Last but not least Tokyo Joshi Pro has the newly formed Cat’s Pye squad taking part.

Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title: Ryuichi Sekine (c) Vs SAGAT

SAGAT pinned and eliminated Ryuichi Sekine at this week’s Shinkiba show. That is enough of a claim for him to get the next Union MAX Title shot. SAGAT has challenged for the title once before, losing to the previous champion Ryota Nakatsu last November.

DDT “WHO’S GONNA TOP 2019”, 29/09/2019
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – 3 Way Match: Jiro Kuroshio (c) Vs HARASHIMA Vs Tetsuya Endo

The grudge between HARASHIMA and Tetsuya Endo has gotten both of them a title match. They wanted the next shot at the DDT Extreme Title but got in each other’s way. Jiro Kuroshio doesn’t want to wait for a single challenger to be determined so he decided to face both of them at the same time.

BOYZ “(BRAND NEW) BOYZ 1 -DDT SPECIAL EDITION-”, 20/10/2019
Tokyo Belle Epoque Beauty School 2nd School Hall

1. Plump BOYZ: Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Kouki Iwasaki
2. MAO UK Expedition BOYZ Send Off Match: Konosuke Takeshita Vs MAO
3. Yukihero Pro Wrestling Collaboration Match: Shunma Katsumata & Mizuki Watase Vs Kazuki Hirata & Hiroshi Yamato

The BOYZ brand is getting a fresh start under Akito’s management. Wrestlers booked on the first show will also be appearing at the SHIBUYA FASHION AWARD-BE Vint-Age 2019 festival the same day to promote a fashion brand called Yukihero Pro Wrestling. The main event will feature the wrestlers involved wearing costumes from that clothing line.

Akito doesn’t remember ever seeing MAO wrestle Takeshita in a singles match so he decided to book it before MAO’s excursion. Kouki Iwasaki is being booked on BOYZ because Akito wants to see him interact with DDT wrestlers more often. Higuchi and Yuki Iino are also being booked despite their alliance to the YaroZ brand. Akito believes there are women at these shows who find those kind of men attractive too. Akito plans to present them in a way that makes them more suitable for the BOYZ brand. DAMNATION wrestlers are disallowed except for Nobuhiro Shimatani because he works under Akito at the Drop Kick Bar.

81 wrestlers in total have been booked for the show and each promotion’s main championship will be defended in their own matches.

Kenny Omega returns to wrestle in DDT after a five year absence. A lot has changed since then but for now the people he wanted in his match are his biggest rival (Honda), his first tag partner (Riho, not “him”) and the wrestler who possibly might have caught his attention the most (Miyu Yamashita). Will there be more coming out of this? Wouldn’t be a party without surprises, would it?

Suzume became a fan of Tokyo Joshi Pro when one of her friends invited her along to see a show. She moved to Tokyo to join the company and has been training for around 7 months. There’s no mention of any athletic background in her profile but she put illustrations down as her special skill. So at least we know she’ll become a wrestler who can draw (oh come on you knew I would make that joke).

The team of Miyu Yamashita & Miu Watanabe are now called Momoiro Sparkling.

The GPW trio get a chance to win back the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles from Real GUTS Army.

An ACL injury will have kept Shinichiro Tominaga out of Ganpro for over a year by the time his return match happens.
