Autographs and ticket holders from Reika Saiki will be sold at the event with proceeds going towards her recovery from a fractured jaw. However Saiki herself will not be at the event. She tweeted her appreciation at Tokyo Joshi for putting together something to help her.

5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title – Itabashi Three Major Singles Match: Shuichiro Katsumura (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

Whoever leaves the show as the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion is guaranteed to defend it in Sumo Hall this November. Keisuke Ishii was the champion before Shuichiro Katsumura won it off him back in January. Since then Katsumura has defended it five times. If he wins here then he will tie Ishii’s amount of successful defences.

Just to be clear, Kenichiro Arai is the Toryumon graduate and Yumehito Imanari is the art student.

Shota and Shinichiro Tominaga face each other in a battle between damaged ACLs.

Originally Koharu Hinata was booked for the show but she is now unable to appear. In a completely unrelated matter Miss Koharu became available so she takes her place.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “MY LIFE; LET’S ENJOY!!”, 19/10/2019
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Sakisama & Misao (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa

Sakisama has an appreciation for other beautiful people which is why she has at least a little respect for Yuki Kamifuku. Maybe she would have the same for Mina Shirakawa if Shirakawa ever stops trying to rap. But then again rapping is how the Cat’s Pye duo got their Princess Tag Team Titles shot.

Nakajima’s excursion to Mexico with CMLL will be over by the time this show takes place. No word yet on if she will be on this show but it’s likely. Tokyo Joshi have confirmed she will not be on the 9th, 10th and 16th November shows.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KFC 2 DAYS ’19 ~TEMPLE OF THE SUN~” Results

September 15, 2019

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KFC 2 DAYS ’19 ~TEMPLE OF THE SUN~”, 15/09/2019
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
335 Fans

1. Rika Tatsumi defeated Suzume with the Dragon Sleeper (7:06).
2. Yuki Aino & YUMI defeated Raku & Mahiro Kiryu when Aino pinned Kiryu with the Side Suplex (6:19).
3. 3 Way Match: Nodoka Tenma defeated Himawari Unagi and Pom Harajuku when Tenma pinned Harajuku with the Back Flip (6:09).
4. Miyu Yamashita defeated Mirai Maiumi with a Back Spin Kick (8:16).
5. Sakisama defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the Versailles Foot Choke (9:12).
6. Hikari Noa defeated Miu Watanabe with the Uranage (10:43).
7. Natsumi Maki, Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Yuna Manase, Maki Itoh & Mina Shirakawa when Sakazaki pinned Shirakawa with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (12:05).
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) defeated Misao with the Diving Senton (15:58).
*V3 for Shoko Nakajima.

Misao has been defeated for the first time since her transformation into Sakisama’s guardswoman. Shoko Nakajima was able to reach the ropes to break the Libera Me submission hold. She used a Double Arm DDT to put Misao in position and won with the Diving Senton. With her toughest challenge so far now behind her, Nakajima decided that the next Princess Of Princess Title match should be held at DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019!” on 3rd November. She already decided on her opponent: Yuka Sakazaki! Together they will show DDT fans the best of Tokyo Joshi Pro at Sumo Hall! They did the Miraclians pose together to end the show. Sakazaki kind of forgot how to do it so Nakajima had to guide her.

Yuna Manase entered to new music. Mina Shirakawa wore the Best Body Japan Women’s Title that she won on 1st September down to the ring. Natsumi Maki mentioned feeling pain around her waist after her match and had to be carried away from the ring. It turned out to be minor and will not effect tomorrow’s International Princess Title defence against Manase. Maki noticed that Manase’s kicks today had more strength behind them than before.

Hikari Noa defeated Miu Watanabe in the latest match between members of the Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling).

Yuki Kamifuku lost to Sakisama but had enough energy left to call for her attention after the match. Kamifuku asked Sakisama what she thinks of her now? Kamifuku thinks she is working hard and doing so both happily and beautifully. She then asked Sakisama to please keep an eye on her. Sakisama surprised everyone by telling her she is looking forward to it.

Rika Tatsumi versus Suzume was a little emotional because the two have been friends since before Suzume trained to become a wrestler. Even though Tatsumi targeted Suzume’s legs in the match and could have beaten her with a Figure 4 Leg Lock, she instead decided to win with the Dragon Sleeper in order to show off her dragon skills. She thinks that hiding beneath Suzume’s pretty look is a strong and tenacious girl. Pro wrestling will bring that girl to the surface.


Higuchi Tears His PCL, Tokyo Joshi KFC Double Header, Ultimate Party Gets Double Title Match!

September 4, 2019

DDT “WEEKDAY ASAKUSA PARADISE 2019”, 05/09/2019

6. DAMNATION Vs Pro Wrestling BASARA!: Daisuke Sasaki & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Isami Kodaka & Takato Nakano
7. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Soma Takao, Tetsuya Endo & Puma King Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura

A few injuries during the week alters tomorrow’s card. The light one is Sanshiro Takagi. He injured his right eye and is missing this show. He will be getting it further examined next week but hopes to be clear for Masahiro Takanashi’s show on the 15th. Gorgeous Matsuno took it upon himself to replace Takagi in Match #2.

The bad injury happened to Kazusada Higuchi during yesterday’s “UNIVERSE.1” show. He tore his right PCL and has no timetable for a return. He does not need surgery and will be aiming to recover as soon as possible. Ryota Nakatsu takes Higuchi’s place in Match #3.

DDT “PEANUT, YOU CAN GET SOME PROTEIN TOO! 2019”, 07/09/2019

Tomomitsu Matsunaga replaces Higuchi at the Chiba show.

DDT “CAMPSITE PRO WRESTLING 2019 ~THE PROMISED NATURE LAND~”, 08/09/2019
Yamanashi Natureland Om

1. Falls Count Anywhere 5 Way 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Yukio Sakaguchi & Antonio Honda Vs Konosuke Takeshita, MAO & Yuki Ueno Vs Shuichiro Katsumura, Ken Ohka & Keisuke Ishii Vs Isami Kodaka, FUMA & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Yuna Manase, Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa

Sadly this means Higuchi will be missing the campsite match as well. Yukio Sakaguchi replaces him here. Also SAGAT is sick with the flu so he is being substituted with Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi.

BASARA “BASARA 105 ~THE 2nd FOX PRINCE~”, 14/09/2019
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Ryota Nakatsu & Akiyori Takizawa Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Masato Kamino
2. Sakigake!! Iron Family Special Rules – Give Up Only Match: Yusuke Kubo Vs Daichi Kazato
3. Sakigake!! Iron Family Special Rules – 2 Count Fall Match: FUMA Vs Minoru Fujita
4. Sakigake!! Iron Family Special Rules – Last Man Standing Match: SAGAT Vs Fuminori Abe
5. UWA World 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Ryuichi Sekine, Isami Kodaka & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs Takumi Tsukamoto, Yasu Urano & Takato Nakano

Takato Nakano approached Sento Minzoku asking for a UWA World 6-Man Tag Team Titles shot. He gathered together Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano to be his partners.

Hopefully SAGAT will be well again in time for his Last Man Standing match.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KFC 2 DAYS ’19 ~TEMPLE OF THE SUN~”, 15/09/2019
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. 3 Way Match: Nodoka Tenma Vs Himawari Unagi Vs Pom Harajuku
2. Yuki Aino & YUMI Vs Raku & Mahiro Kiryu
3. Rika Tatsumi Vs Suzume
4. Miyu Yamashita Vs Mirai Maiumi
5. Miu Watanabe Vs Hikari Noa
6. Natsumi Maki, Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Yuna Manase, Maki Itoh & Mina Shirakawa
7. Sakisama Vs Yuki Kamifuku
8. Princess Of Princess Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Misao

With the new 2nd Gen belt over her shoulder, Shoko Nakajima is now even more motivated to defend the Princess Title. Her next challenger is the wrestler who has by far progressed the most among the roster this year, Misao. Ever since Misao shed her superhero persona and joined NEO Biishiki-gun she has gone from strength to strength.

I wonder if Sakisama holds a grudge with Yuki Kamifuku over her attempt to join NEO Biishiki-gun last year? Kamifuku joined the unit as an apprentice last May then quit after two weeks when she figured out it was a bad fit for her.

Miu Watanabe Vs Hikari Noa is a match to watch out for. The two members of the Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) have developed so much in the ring this year and part of the reason why is they branched out to other tag teams outside of their unit (Momoiro Sparkling for Watanabe and Pandemic Boo-Boo for Noa). Gotta be honest here, I think Raku is in danger of never catching up to them.

DDT “DRAMATIC SAINT INN☆ONISAN 2019”, 16/09/2019
Okayama Saint Inn Kurashiki

1. OPG Offer Match: Gota Ihashi, Great Mutiger & Yunosuke Vs Takuya Yamauchi, Tomoya Uehara & Scoville
2. Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Hiroshi Yamato
3. Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Danshoku Dieno & Yukio Sakaguchi
4. Cody Hall & Antonio Honda Vs Makoto Oishi & Yukio Naya
5. Mizuki Watase Marunage Match ~ Advent Of God!! Falls Count Anywhere In Kurashiki Hardcore 6-Man Tag Match: Mizuki Watase, MAO & Asuka Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Kazusada Higuchi & Shunma Katsumata
6. DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Soma Takao & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Akito
7. Kurashiki Specialty Beauty Area Special 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura

HARASHIMA and Tetsuya Endo continue their feud. The danger here is they could do so much damage to each other that there won’t be much left for Jiro Kuroshio to deal with at the end of the month.

No word yet on who will replace Higuchi in the Marunage match.

Gota Ihashi gets his Oretachi Pro Wrestling buddies into the opener.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KFC 2 DAYS ’19 ~DESERT MOON~”, 16/09/2019
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall

1. Mahiro Kiryu Vs Mirai Maiumi
2. Maki Itoh Vs YUMI
3. Miyu Yamashita & Himawari Unagi Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa
4. Sakisama & Misao Vs Rika Tatsumi & Suzume
5. Yuka Sakazaki, Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku Vs Miu Watanabe, Hikari Noa & Raku
6. Shoko Nakajima & Mizuki Vs Dalys & Nodoka Tenma
7. International Princess Title: Natsumi Maki (c) Vs Yuna Manase

Natsumi Maki and Yuna Manase kind of have a sisterly relationship going back to their early years in Actwres girl’Z (am I allowed to mention that place?). Manase pinned Maki in Maki’s first match since becoming the International Princess Champion so obviously Manase gets the first shot.

CMLL luchadora Dalys makes her Tokyo Joshi debut. The 10 year veteran from Panama is being thrown right into the top card mix.

DDT “DRAMATIC OMUTA SKYSCRAPER 2019”, 17/09/2019
Fukuoka Omuta Culture Hall Small Hall

1. Mizuki Watase Vs Yukio Naya
2. Soma Takao Vs Shunma Katsumata
3. Antonio Honda & Cody Hall Vs Mad Paulie & Nobuhiro Shimatani
4. Gota Ihashi Marunage Match: Kazusada Higuchi Vs Naomi Yoshimura Vs Gota Ihashi
5. Daisuke Sasaki & Tetsuya Endo Vs MAO & Asuka
6. DDT Has A Variety Of Teams!: Sanshiro Takagi, Danshoku Dieno & Makoto Oishi (w/ Yoshihiko) Vs Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Hiroshi Yamato
7. Omuta Specialty! The Moon Came Out The Moon Came Out! Barisugo Special 6-Man Tag Match: Konosuke Takeshita, Akito & Yuto Aijima Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Ueno & Yukio Sakaguchi

I guess Higuchi is missing the heavyweight 3 Way too.

Other: Kenny Omega, Riho, Jiro Kuroshio, Chris Brookes, Asuka, Hiroshi Yamato, Yasu Urano, Minoru Fujita, Miss Mongolia

To really make this an Ultimate Party, Konosuke Takeshita wants to defend the KO-D Openweight Title against the DDT Extreme Champion in a double title match! Right now the Extreme Champ in Jiro Kuroshio. All he has to do is get past HARASHIMA and Endo in the 3 Way Match. Easier said than done.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2019 ~I WILL NOT LOSE TO ANYONE~” Results

September 1, 2019

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE MOUNTAIN TOP 2019 ~I WILL NOT LOSE TO ANYONE~”, 01/09/2019
Osaka Edion Arena #2
417 Fans

1. Mirai Maiumi defeated Suzume with a Lariat (5:28).
2. Himawari Unagi & YUMI defeated Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Unagi submitted Harajuku with the Big Fuhen Hold (9:04).
3. Miyu Yamashita & Miu Watanabe defeated Gisele Shaw & Yuki Kamifuku when Yamashita pinned Kamifuku with the Attitude Adjustment (12:08).
4. Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Natsumi Maki, Hikari Noa & Raku when Manase pinned Maki with a Lariat (10:13).
5. Su Yung defeated Maki Itoh with the Panic Switch (10:11).
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.

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.

International Princess Title, Other Princess Championships Get Renamed

July 16, 2019

In a bid to expand Tokyo Joshi Pro’s presence around the world some changes have been made to the promotion’s range of championships. First, the current existing championships have been slightly renamed. The “TOKYO” part of the names have been dropped which means the main singles championship is now called the Princess Of Princess Title and the tag belts are called the Princess Tag Team Titles. The reason for this is to present the belts as more global championships.

Here is the second announcement. Because some members of the roster are getting chances to wrestle overseas and more foreign women are visiting Japan to wrestle in Tokyo Joshi, a decision was made to create a brand new singles championship! The International Princess Title belt is currently being produced with plans to crown its first champion later this summer.

The champion decision match will be between a Japanese wrestler and a foreign wrestler. The Japanese wrestler will be decided with a 4 Way Match on 20th July. Each participant in the match was chosen because of their abilities and recent results. Also in order to widen the selection process across the roster, Tokyo Joshi purposely avoided picking women who have been in Princess Title matches this year. The four women picked are Rika Tatsumi, Yuna Manase, Natsumi Maki and Yuki Kamifuku.
