7. D GENERATIONS CUP 2025 – Final: Takeshi Masada Vs Yuya Koroku

A press conference was held by DDT today to promote the D GENERATIONS CUP final. It was there when Takeshi Masada and Yuya Koroku were told that the final is going to main event Korakuen Hall! The surprise completely threw Masada off guard because up until now he had everything calculated and going to plan. The final being moved to the main event wasn’t part of those calculations. He tried to play it cool and still thinks he will win and move on to challenge Chris Brookes for the KO-D Openweight Title. Koroku does not care who the KO-D Champion will be if he wins the final and gets the title shot instead.

Super Sasadango Machine takes Iino’s place in the Pheromones reunion match. That means the 3 Way Match he was originally booked for is now just Kazuki Hirata against Antonio Honda.

Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Daichi Kazato Vs Kuishinbo Kamen

The Union MAX Title reign is off to a good start for Masato Kamino but is he becoming to smug about it? He has really become proud of his muscular body as of late. However Ryota Nakatsu thinks that Kamino loves himself so much it’s starting to overshadow BASARA and the MAX Title.

3. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi

No need to worry about 121000000 being banned from Japan. They successfully defended the Princess Tag Team Titles in Chile and will have no trouble travelling home where Kyoraku Kyomei will be waiting for them.

Daisy Monkey are going to explode! One of the other mainstay tag teams in Tokyo Joshi Pro have an important match going on too. Suzume and Arisu Endo will be facing each other for the International Princess Title!

A match two and a half years in the making will finally happen. Willow Nightingale was supposed to face Miu Watanabe one on one back at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’22” but travel issues cancelled her tour. While she eventually did get to wrestle in Japan with TJPW, the singles match with Watanabe never happened. It’s been a long wait but it’s finally going to take place next month!

BASARA “BASARA 270 ~SOUEN~” Results

February 10, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 270 ~SOUEN~”, 10/02/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano defeated Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Tsukamoto pinned Kazato after an Moroashigari Otoshi (10:22).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Lil’ Kraken defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Kraken pinned Ryu with La Bufadora (9:50).
3. SAGAT & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami when Nakatsu pinned Kawakami with the V Slider (10:40).
4. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomura defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi when Sekine submitted Hiroshi with the Let’s Combine (14:06).
5. Union MAX Title: Masato Kamino (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Lariat (18:39).
*V1 for Masato Kamino.

Masato Kamino won the Aijin Tag battle against Takato Nakano to remain the Union MAX Champion. Nakano accepted defeat and will move to the back of the line. In the meantime he wants to see Kamino become even stronger to lead BASARA forward. They can also start teaming up again because it’s been a while since Aijin Tag last had a tag match together. Ryota Nakatsu then climbed into the ring. He praised Kamino for his victory but can also sense just how much Kamino loves himself. It’s enough to overshadow his love for BASARA and the MAX Title. Nakatsu however thinks his own love for BASARA and the MAX Title is clear to see so he wants the next title shot. Kamino accepted the challenge and the match will happen on 2nd March.

Today was the final match of Sento Minzoku as a unit. It was a 6-Man Tag match with the three active members all teaming together while Minoru Fujita was in their corner at ringside. After they beat Asian Kung Fu Revolution, all four members posed for the fans, laid their towels down on the canvas and all removed their monkey tails to place on top of the towels. Isami Kodaka then officially declared Sento Minzoku has disbanded. Backstage he said his desire to promote BASARA has not changed and he will continue to find ways to make it more exciting. Ryuichi Sekine said because he had reliable partners looking over him he was able to do whatever he wanted during his time in the unit. He will use that experience to step up in the future. Daiki Shimomura wonders if he would have been able to grow as he did if he never joined the unit and worn the tail. He thanked the others for teaching him so much. Fujita felt like he was able to become a part of BASARA thanks to Sento Minzoku. The unit disbanding does not mean he will be leaving BASARA. He’ll be back from his break eventually.

She put this show together after she heard about Hikari Shimizu’s plan to retire this March because neither COLOR’S or TJPW were able to book a match between them for their upcoming schedules. The date of this show also happens to be Hasegawa’s birthday.

There will be one or two matches added to the card soon. Riara is booked on the show.

What surprises do The 37KAMIINA have in store on Valentine’s Day? MAO & Yoshihiko are going to defend the BZW Tag Team Titles in Japan again, this time against CDK. The next chapter in the eternal rivalry between Kuishinbo Kamen and Kikutaro has Yuki Ueno being thrown in between them. The bottom half of the card has a bunch of mystery wrestlers showing up. To-y is going to fight somebody who might love saunas more than he does. Maybe the tag team facing Akito & Yuki Iino will have to go ALL OUT to beat them.

BASARA “BASARA 267 ~9TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE~” Results

January 21, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 267 ~9TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE~”, 21/01/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Daiki Shimomura defeated Shota Kawakami with a Half Crab Hold (7:29).
2. Takato Nakano & Lil’ Kraken defeated Yasu Urano & Banana Senga when Nakano pinned Urano with the Takagari (12:15).
3. Ryota Nakatsu & Masato Kamino defeated Daisuke Sekimoto & Kuma Arashi when Nakatsu pinned Arashi with a Jackknife Pin (19:06).
4. Inaugural Rumble: Ryuichi Sekine defeated Daichi Kazato by Ring Out (24:21).
Order Of Elimination: Gouma Ryu, Gouma Ryu, Isami Kodaka, Tsutomu Oosugi, KUBITO, SAGAT, Gouma Ryu, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Takumi Tsukamoto, FUMA and Daichi Kazato.

Look at how fast time flies. Today is BASARA’s 9th anniversary of their launch and they celebrated by holding a Rumble match with nostalgic elements included. Daichi Kazato wore the costume he wrestled in nine years ago, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi showed up as Hiroshi Fukuda again in full USA gear plus a blonde wig, FUMA started acting like a heavy metal rocker again and Gouma Ryu kept getting eliminated over and over. Ryuichi Sekine was the last man standing and he told everyone how lucky he felt today. He also felt touched fighting with FUMA again and suggested they team up more often. In fact, the two of them should go challenge Astronauts for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles! FUMA was still feeling the heavy metal energy and accepted the offer. He started having second thoughts later backstage when he found out Sekine is a fake heavy metal fan but Sekine reminded him they still have a bond together because they are both farmers.

Masato Kamino wasn’t satisfied with his team winning today’s match. He and Ryota Nakatsu were able to beat Daisuke Sekimoto & Kuma Arashi but that’s only because Arashi missed Nakatsu with the Diving Senton and was then accidentally hit by a Lariat from Sekimoto. Nakatsu ended up pinning Arashi with a Jackknife Pin. Kamino had wanted himself to get a definitive win against either opponent and that didn’t happen.

The injured Takeru Inoue was in attendance to greet the fans at the start of the show and apologize for being unable to compete today. Isami Kodaka later pointed out Inoue must have only been 10 years old when BASARA was created. Kodaka also said he wants BASARA to be more fun for the wrestlers because if they’re not enjoying it, then the fans won’t either. Looking back Kodaka said BASARA struggled to survive during the Covid-19 pandemic so the company cannot take the future for granted.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 5TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 25/01/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Miu Watanabe Vs Raku Vs Haruna Neko
2. Suzume, Arisu Endo & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Arai, Haru Kazashiro & Toga
3. Yuki Aino, Ivy Steele & Kira Summer Vs Moka Miyamoto, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami
4. Miyu Yamashita & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Rika Tatsumi & Chika Nanase
5. Mizuki Vs Mifu Ashida
6. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku

Four teams remain and after next weekend they will be down to two. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara are bonding together with a “Ayase Town Hills New Hills” style and had a much easier time in the 2nd Round than they did in the 1st. The difficulty level for them has ramped way back up because their next opponents are Pompaler. The tactic of Max The Impaler throwing Pom Harajuku at the nearest opponent hasn’t been beat yet in the tournament so far. Kyoraku Kyomei are one step away from reaching the final for a second time. However Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao know full well not to let their guards down now, especially after HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki scored a little bit of an upset to reach this far.

It didn’t take long for the newcomer Mifu Ashida to be thrown into the ring with Mizuki. The champ needs some fresh meat.

DDT “NEW YEAR, NEW HERO. 2025 ~A NEW STORY BEGINS~”, 26/01/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Soma Takao & Yukio Naya Vs Yuki Iino & Daichi Sato
2. MAO & Toru Owashi Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda
3. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
4. Road To D GENERATIONS CUP 2025! Special 8-Man Tag Match: Takeshi Masada, Keigo Nakamura, Ilusion & Yuki Ishida Vs To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
5. DDT Extreme Title – Life’s Sparkle Rules: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Gorgeous Matsuno
6. DDT Universal Title: Gringo Loco (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa

Chris Brookes has figured out he cannot become stronger than Shuji Ishikawa, but he can become more handsome than his challenger. He has been taking care of his face by wearing face masks every day until the show takes place. He also promised to win the match so Ishikawa will not sing karaoke in Korakuen Hall again.

Only a one count will be needed to win the DDT Extreme Title match. Danshoku Dieno came up with the idea because he wants to see Gorgeous Matsuno fight with all of his might. The most important thing in life is the next second in front of you. A person’s experience does not matter if they don’t make the most of that second.
