Full TJPW Card For 4th January

December 18, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’21”, 04/01/2021
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Marika Kobashi & Moka Miyamoto Vs Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko
2. Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori
4. Aja Kong, Mizuki & Raku Vs Miu Watanabe, Nao Kakuta & Mirai Maiumi
5. Arisu Endo Debut Match: Suzume Vs Arisu Endo
6. Miyu Yamashita Vs Maki Itoh
7. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi

The main event has a lot going for it. Yuka Sakazaki and Rika Tatsumi have known each other for years, even before they began training to be pro wrestlers. Seven years ago Sakazaki convinced Tatsumi to go train together so she is a special person in Tatsumi’s life. But for this match Tatsumi sees Sakazaki only as the Princess Of Princess Champion. Tatsumi wants to defeat “The Magical Girl who resembles Fudo Myoo” so she can transform from a White Dragon into a Dragon God!

According to the Toyo University Combo, their bond is more stronger than those between sisters. Yuki Kamifuku thinks she and Mahiro Kiryu are more like clones of the Toyo University founder Inoue Enryo’s daughter! The Bakuretsu Sisters don’t just want to make memories out of their Princess Tag Team Titles reign. They want to defend the belts as much as they can because it took them so long to win them.

Two years ago, Maki Itoh failed to beat Miyu Yamashita in the Ittenyon main event. It was a poor performance that at the time left her traumatized. Now she realizes it was not a setback but valuable experience. When she sticks up her middle finger it is a sign of confidence and determination. Itoh’s middle finger cannot be broken! Yamashita thinks this is a Tokyo Joshi Pro match that can appeal to the world. She’s letting Itoh do the talking now. When they get in the ring Yamashita will show her what she’s really got.

Arisu Endo is a 22 years old from Fukushima and is 150cm tall. She became a pro wrestler because she loves wrestling but is nervous to have her debut match. Endo’s favourite wrestler is Reika Saiki and she wants to become as cool as her. Suzume is looking forward to see what kind of wrestler Endo will be so she is happy to be her debut opponent.

Aja Kong is back! Mizuki is honored to team with her. Raku’s wrestling career is currently three years old. She thinks three year olds still need to take naps so she will do so. Miu Watanabe sees this match as a bridge between idols and pro wrestling. Nao Kakuta’s goal for 2021 is to win a championship so a win here will give her momentum. Mirai Maiumi wants to show the kind of brilliance in Korakuen Hall that only she can.

Sena Shiori has been frustrated by losing to NEO Biishiki-gun over and over since the unit returned and turned their attention to her. There’s nothing she can’t do with Hikari Noa which is why she thinks they can win. Noa is surprised she gets to team with Shiori in Korakuen so quickly. She wants to help her win her first match because it will happen on the first anniversary of Shiori’s debut.

In a rematch from last year’s Ittenyon, Shoko Nakajima and Hyper Misao will face off again. Last time the loser had to change their name for a month. Misao beat Misao and renamed her Akemi Daredasore. Misao has changed her name a few times in her career, even her private one because she recently got married but she hasn’t forgotten about that match. Which is why she wants the same stipulation for the rematch and have it become an annual gimmick for the Ittenyon show! Nakajima accepts the challenge because she has very few things to protect. She believes the more things a person needs to protect, the more weaknesses they have.

The opening match is between the two youngest generations in Tokyo Joshi. Marika Kobashi will be celebrating her 5th anniversary of her debut. Moka Miyamoto thinks she is the exact opposite of Kobashi but they can do their best as a tag team of active college students. Haruna Neko isn’t bothered by who is her juniors or seniors in the match. She just wants to win. Pom Harajuku felt she wasn’t able to work hard in 2020 so she wants to get 2021 off on the right track with a victory.

The live broadcast of the show will have separate streams. ABEMA will host the local broadcast with Haruo Murata and Sayoko Mita on commentary. WRESTLE UNIVERSE will provide live English commentary for the first time with Mark Pickering and Stewart Fulton on the headsets.

Itoh Headbutted her in response. She used a Headbutt again to block Kakuta’s kick. Pom Harajuku went for her finisher but Kakuta avoided it. Shoko Nakajima hit Harajuku with the 619 and Kakuta did the Shiden Kai to get the pin.

Because she is newly married, Hyper Misao successfully argued to the referee that the bouquet she is carrying around is part of her wrestling attire. So she is now permitted use it in her matches. She held the bouquet in her hand as she beat Raku.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 14/11/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Nao Kakuta & Pom Harajuku defeated Shoko Nakajima & Suzume when Kakuta pinned Suzume with the Hawaiian Smasher (10:09).
2. Hyper Misao defeated Moka Miyamoto with a Camel Clutch Chickenwing Facelock (8:21).

6. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Raku defeated Miyu Yamashita, Miu Watanabe & Haruna Neko when Sakazaki pinned Neko with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (13:41).

The show began with an important announcement from Mizuki. She has now officially joined Tokyo Joshi Pro! She’s been wrestling almost exclusively for TJPW since 2017 but she was doing that as a freelancer all that time. Ever since the Tokyo Princess Cup she thought about this decision because she wants to be part of the company. Her goal is to win championships and surpass Yuka Sakazaki. She promised to do her best to spread the name of TJPW. Rika Tatsumi was the first person to congratulate her by giving her a big hug.

Mizuki, Sakazaki & Raku called their trio the Magirabi Express.

Sakisama returned to TJPW because she thinks the fans are missing the excitement that only she can provide. She heard Sena Shiori is nicknamed the Space Ranger. She’d be happy to take in Shiori to her own rocket ship but not yet. Shiori is not mature enough yet to join Sakisama’s side. Instead, Sakisama will be bringing in her own tag partner for a tag match on 20th November. She almost said her partner’s name but stopped herself to keep it a mystery.

Hyper Misao found out that Moka Miyamoto is an active college student. She wanted their match to count as course credit while also teaching a lesson that pro wrestling is not as sweet as university.

The newest addition to the roster Nao Kakuta wrestled in new gear for the occasion. She wanted to leave a strong presence in her first match and did so by picking up the win. She learned a lot about Suzume in the ring and can tell she is taking wrestling seriously. She got a strange feeling of exhilaration from wrestling against Shoko Nakajima. Finally she wants to team with Pom Harajuku again. They don’t have any double team moves or any other kind of cooperation so she wants to know her better.

*Daydream fails in V5. The Bakuretsu Sisters become the 6th Princess Tag Team Champions!
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Mizuki with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (25:37).
*V4 for Yuka Sakazaki.

In the fated battle between The Magical Sugar Rabbits, it was Yuka Sakazaki who came out on top! Mizuki’s new Whirling Candy move wasn’t enough to win her the Princess Of Princess Title. Instead it was Sakazaki’s ultra move, the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro that ensured she held onto the championship. With tears in their eyes, both wrestlers hugged each other after the match before the belt was handed over to Sakazaki. It is a clear sign that they are still close and their team will continue. A rare sight in pro wrestling.

Sakazaki said there was so much love coming from the fans who came to support Tokyo Joshi Pro today. She will give it her all because she loves it and is determined not to lose. She was so focused on her match today that she couldn’t watch the other matches. But when the other wrestlers would come backstage from the ring, she could see their faces sparkling with happiness. The entire roster was brought into the ring to celebrate. Sakazaki said the TJPW roster is changing but she hopes everyone who gathers here will have fun. She looks forward to working with them for many years to come! Mizuki was still crying and told Sakazaki she wanted to go eat hamburger steak. Everyone cheered “Happy Happy” and soap bubbles fell down around them. They then lined up on the stage and thanked everyone for coming today.

Daydream’s year long reign as the Princess Tag Team Champions has come to an end. The Bakuretsu Sisters finally lay claim to the belts on their fourth attempt together. Yuki Aino saved Nodoka Tenma from the Daydream Eternity. From there Tenma gave Rika Tatsumi the Killswitch to get rid of her. Miu Watanabe had the power to keep fighting until Aino put her away with the UBV. Tatsumi said backstage she feels empty without having the white belts anymore. But she also advised Watanabe to stay calm and take time to think about the defeat because Daydream is not finished yet. For the Sisters, they finally climbed the mountain and couldn’t do it without each other. The Bakuretsu Era begins and they want to defend the titles as many times they want!

The vacant International Princess Title now has a champion again. It’s Yuki Kamifuku and it is well deserved too! In the final of the tournament, she faced off against Hikari Noa. Already tired from wrestling earlier, Kamifuku and Noa left nothing to chance. A Double Chop followed by a Dropkick gave Kamifuku an opening to climb the top rope. She hit the Diving Fame Asser to win her first championship! There isn’t a wrestler out there who she is modelling herself after. She wants fans to think she’s cool by being herself. Her goal is to make the championship a symbol for cool, happy, fun girls. She speaks English so she can spread the word around the world that Tokyo Joshi wrestlers are such pretty Japanese people.

Aja Kong and Sareee were both welcomed back for another visit to TJPW. Kong had Maki Itoh waiting for her while Saree was eager to get into exchanges with Miyu Yamashita. The finish involved the two TJPW regulars. Sareee cut Yamashita off giving Itoh chances to use Headbutts. That lead went away after a High Kick and the Attitude Adjustment. Yamashita then ended the match with the Crash Rabbit Heat. Kong said she was happy to return here and is grateful the TJPW fanbase likes her. She told Sareee to “remove her limiter” when she got in the ring with Yamashita because she wanted to see Yamashita do the same. Kong is amazed by her kicking accuracy. She would like to come back next year. Itoh was annoyed that Sareee couldn’t crush Kong and come save her from getting beat. They still get along though because they’re almost the same age and probably would have been in the same grade together if they went to the same school. Sareee would like to wrestle Yamashita again but she also wants to fight Itoh.

A button was brought down to the ring for the Hyper Misao Vs Saki Akai match. Whenever somebody pressed the button, the rules for the match would change into a random stipulation. Before the match began she told the story of when she discovered pro wrestling by going to a DDT Street Wrestling show in 2014. She saw Akai taking part and was inspired by watching her fighting against men, completely turning standard values upside down. So today Misao came up with this match to flip Akai’s values upside down too. Daisuke Kiso pressed the button to start the match. The first rule was the match could not be won with kicking moves. Akai had already kicked Misao in the face when the rule came up so she wasn’t allowed to pin her afterwards. Akai pressed the button and the next rule was pins would not be counted unless the wrestlers spun in circles over a standing baseball bat five times. This left both of them dizzy after several series of spins and pin attempts. The next rule was Falls Count Anywhere as long as they ate from a bag of chocolate. Misao distracted the referee and emptied her chocolate into Akai’s bag. But Akai pressed the button and got a rule that allowed helpers to come down and get involved. Yukio Sakaguchi entered the ring to help Akai! Misao waited for her helper and got Sanshiro Takagi! It went wrong for both sides because Takagi accidentally Clotheslined Misao and Sakaguchi accidentally hit Akai with a Knee Kick. The men focused on fighting each other while the women pressed the button for the last rule. Last Woman Standing! Misao reversed the Quetzalcoatl into the Vanitas but missed the I Am A Hero. The Hyper Gotham Crash was also stopped and Misao was weakened with the Rookie Award. Seeing her chance to win, Akai hit the Quetzalcoatl and Misao couldn’t answer the 10 count, ending the match with a knockout.

When Yuna Manase asked Raku for a Handshake at the start of their match, Raku pretended to fall asleep. Manase complained to Yukinori Matsui but he fell asleep too. She stomped on him to wake him up. Raku took the match seriously by kicking out of the Suzuki Dynamic but she was immediately pinned with a Short Range Lariat afterward. Backstage Manase said the appeal of TJPW is that the matches are bright and fun. She hopes Raku get strong enough to chase after a title soon. Raku described Manase like an older sister who used to live with her but then moved out to go live in Tokyo.

Kamifuku’s path to win the International Princess Title begun today with a major upset over Shoko Nakajima. While Nakajima still wants to challenge for the IP Title, she realises after losing to her kohai that she still has to grow in strength.

Noa had a challenging victory over Mirai Maiumi in her semi-final. Maiumi had plenty of submissions to counter Noa’s Suplexes so Noa had to switch to using the Super Kick. That move weakened Maiumi enough for Noa to pin her with a bridging Blizzard Suplex. Maiumi regrets losing but said this is only the beginning of a new landscape that she will create.

Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Marika Kobashi & Haruna Neko but the result was so close to being the opposite. Neko had Kiryu beat with the Codebreaker but Harajuku broke the count. Kobashi got rid of her and Neko went for another Codebreaker. This time Kiryu caught her and hit a Spinebuster to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

The opening match was Mei Suruga’s TJPW debut. She teamed with the rookie Moka Miyamoto in a losing effort to Suzume & Sena Shiori. For the winners it was a big confidence boost to win inside a big venue. Suruga hopes she picked up some new fans and they will come watch ChocoPro or Gatoh Move.

A new trainee named Arisu Endo introduced herself. She comes from Cheer♥1, the same idol group that produced Reika Saiki. She promised to do her best to debut as soon as possible.

Freelancer Nao Kakuta will regularly appear in Tokyo Joshi beginning 14th November. She told the fans she would like to become someone who can liven up the TJPW ring. She wanted to come here because everyone is cute and have their own clear characters. She sees how much everyone in TJPW loves pro wrestling and it makes her want to get involved.

Four dates at Korakuen Hall in 2021 were announced. The shows will take place on 4th January, 11th February, 17th April and 4th May. “WRESTLE PRINCESS II” will also be held at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 9th October, 2021.

Sakisama returns for a one-off appearance on 14th November. Hyper Misao will face Super Sasadango Machine on 20th November.

Kendo Kashin was spotted inside the venue during the show. He threatened to crash the show during the week looking for Takagi. Presumably he wants to challenge him for the DDT Extreme Title.

The champions defeated the challengers in the Best 2 out of 3 Falls preview for “WRESTLE PRINCESS”. From the beginning of the first fall, Yuka Sakazaki and Mizuki got plenty of time to wrestle each other. Mizuki took out Sakazaki & Rika Tatsumi with a Plancha. That gave The Bakuretsu Sisters the opening to beat Miu Watanabe with their finisher. The second fall went back to Sakazaki Vs Mizuki as the focus. Sakazaki got the better of her opponent this time and pinned her upcoming challenger with the Magical Magical Girl Splash. In the final fall Mizuki got rid of Sakazaki and Daydream gave Yuki Aino the Daydream Eternity. Tatsumi then took down Nodoka Tenma with the Missile Hip Attack to win the match for the champions team.

This was the last show before “WRESTLE PRINCESS” so the roster all came out after the main event to give one final push for the show. Sakazaki said wrestling Mizuki makes her feel something she hasn’t felt in a long time. It makes her look forward to 7th November. Everyone on the roster said they will continue to do their best at Tokyo Dome City Hall.

The semi finals for the International Princess Title Tournament are now set. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Suzume and Hikari Noa defeated Pom Harajuku in the remaining 1st Round matches. The semi finals at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” will be Shoko Nakajima Vs Yuki Kamifuku and Hikari Noa Vs Mirai Maiumi after a draw took place later in the day.

Hyper Misao’s team came up with a plan to tape Miyu Yamashita’s feet together. They succeeded in trapping her to wrap the tape around her feet but the referee eventually pulled the tape off to free her.

Mahiro Kiryu had to miss the show for family reasons. Haruna Neko took her place in Match #2 and Match #1 was turned into a 3 Way.

At the start of the show Watanabe said it would be her last show opening as a 20 year old. Her birthday is on 19th October.

They also praised Pom Harajuku for stepping in to be Mahiro Kiryu’s partner on short notice. Daydream accepted their next challengers and confirmed the Princess Tag Team Titles match will happen at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” on 7th November. Yuki Aino said they failed to win the titles back in January but they tried hard enough to get another chance. She’s been wrestling alone a lot lately so she is happy to team with her sister Nodoka Tenma again.

Marika Kobashi has a new look for her first match back in 1 year and 5 months. She is now a “Gal Wrestler” wearing black and orange leopard print gear. She has a definite goal in mind for the future but she didn’t want to say anything clear about it today.

Scull Kick is the deliberate spelling of Miyu Yamashita’s move.


Ladybeard’s Contract Ends, Idols Added To TIF Match, Takagi Vs Dieno, Abe’s Next Challenger

Under doctor’s recommendation she has pulled out of the main event. Kamifuku is aiming to return on 17th October. Mahiro Kiryu was going to remove herself from the match because of this but Kamifuku convinced her not to waste the opportunity she made for herself. Kiryu agreed and nominated Pom Harajuku to be her new tag partner. Both Daydream and The Bakuretsu Sisters gave their approval for the math to go ahead.

Marika Kobashi’s return match involves her former tag partner from the JK Strikers. However Miyu Yamashita is not on her team, instead they are against each other.

BASARA “BASARA 137 ~GLITTER~”, 27/10/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Masato Kamino
2. IRON FIST TAG Titles: Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (c) Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato

Two new challengers emerge for the Union MAX Title. The champion Fuminori Abe doesn’t want to defend the belt in a 3 Way so Takumi Tsukamoto and Masato Kamino will fight over the No. 1 Contendership instead. Tsukamoto has a pretty strong string of results since BASARA has been running shows again. Kamino has begun winning matches too but the opponents he has beaten so far do not give him the rub to challenge the champion straight away.

6. Mizuki & Mina Shirakawa defeated Yuki Aino & Raku when Mizuki pinned Raku with the Cutie Special (13:46).

Mizuki was happy to team with Mina Shirakawa before Shirakawa leaves Tokyo Joshi Pro at the end of the month. Shirakawa responded that she personally loves and respects Mizuki. When they were interviewed backstage, Shirakawa talked about the entire roster sharing their memories of her after the news of her contracting ending came out. Mizuki said she didn’t say anything. Shirakawa corrected her by bringing up a private LINE conversation they had but Mizuki stopped her from providing any more info. For Shirakawa’s last match in TJPW she wants to do something like a Gauntlet match against the entire roster. She reconsidered when she was told that is usually done for retirement matches.

It’s not goodbye yet but Pandemic Boo-Boo teamed up for what could be the last time.

An RKO from Suzume to Haruna Neko created an upset result in Match #4. The match could have ended the other way when Miu Watanabe put Suzume in the Canadian Backbreaker. Sena Shiori made the save with a Dropkick. When Rika Tatsumi got rid of her, Suzume ran rings around Daydream distracting them long enough for Maiumi Mirai to wipe them out with a Double Lariat. After the match Suzume called for Tatsumi’s attention. She joined TJPW because of how much she admires the wrestlers and now she is one too. Suzume wants to herself and Maiumi to shine as bright as Tatsumi so they are challenging Daydream for the Princess Tag Team Titles! The match is accepted and will take place on 21st September. Watanabe seeing two young wrestlers challenging the champions reminds her of when she and Hikari Noa did the same against the Magical Sugar Rabbits two years ago.

Himawari Unagi kept shouting “Wasshoi!” during her match. Trying to get the last of that festival feeling before the summer ends I guess.

Hyper Misao’s latest idea for a match was to give each wrestler 3 points. They lost a point being pinned for 2 seconds, giving up to a submission or getting thrown over the top rope to the outside. Last wrestler with points remaining wins. Misao and Pom Harajuku worked together to take points from Miyu Yamashita. The match came down to everyone with a point each. Yamashita pinned Harajuku with the Attitude Adjustment to eliminate her. But Harajuku rolled into Yamashita’s legs afterwards and helped Misao pin her with La Magistral Cradle to give Misao the victory.

The matches were kept secret until they happened so everyone was surprised to see Yuka Sakazaki in the opener. Moka Miyamoto had her first match back after being absent with illness for a month.
