Hype! 3 Rerun, BASARA Looking For Momentum, Takeshita & Tekechi Teaming Up

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HYPER MISAO PRODUCE ~ HYPE! 3 (RERUN)”, 05/08/2025

The second performance of “HYPE! 3” will not be completely identical to the first one. It sounds like it will be the same story but with some changes here and there. Hyper Misao said she made some decisions with the first performance when she wasn’t under the right frame of mind so we’re going to see if this is more like a director’s cut or if it goes in a completely different direction.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~” Results

August 3, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans

2. GRACE PROJECT Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Captain Grace, Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura defeated Tomoya Hirata, Mizuki Watase, Ultra Soki & HIROYA when Shimomura pinned HIROYA with the Swanton Bomb (11:03).

4. Special Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & El Desperado defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Desperado pinned Nakano with the Pinche Loco (14:54).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda defeated Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA (c) when Honda submitted FUMA with the Jumping Armbar (14:56).
*Hyakusho Ikki fails in V3. MJ2 become the 14th Iron Fist Tag Team Champions!
6. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto with the V Slider (23:26).
*V2 for Ryota Nakatsu.

It has been just under one year since BASARA last held a show at Korakuen Hall. Now under new management, today’s show is the next chapter for the company. Even though they did not announce an attendance number, the word going around from them and wrestling reporters is this was the biggest crowd they have ever had! The new president Ryota Nakatsu credited everyone involved with the show from those signed with the company to those who wrestle freelance for all of the hard work they did to promote it. The next goal Nakatsu has in mind is to sell enough tickets to open up the north side of Korakuen and then fill that up too. He also promised to openly talk about the positives and negatives happening in BASARA because there is no point in a company like this trying to look cool.

In the main event Nakatsu defeated the new sales manager Takumi Tsukamoto in his first defence of the Union MAX Title. Nakatsu said it felt amazing for both of them to be BASARA’s main focus today. Tsukamoto agreed and is a litle worried he may have lost his mind during the match because it felt so good. Nakatsu then promoted the next show on 20th August until he was interrupted by Daichi Kazato and Ayato Yoshida. Kazato climbed the turnbuckle and held onto a large rubber strap. Yoshida then pulled the strap back and snapped it back into Kazato’s face. Nakatsu was confused until Kazato explained that is his way of challenging him for the MAX Title.

Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA named themselves Hyakusho Ikki because they wanted to defend the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles a hundred times. They couldn’t even make it to three. Instead Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda are the new champions after Honda made FUMA submit to the Jumping Armbar. FUMA later told Sekine that they were sent back down to rock bottom but that just means it’s time to start preparing for the next harvest. The challengers brought along Naka Shuma and Kyu Mogami to be their cornermen because all four of them are part of a unit in 2AW called MJ2. But when Mashimo & Honda won the titles Honda (through Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi) told Shuma & Mogami that they weren’t needed anymore! Backstage Shuma & Mogami said it’s boring to just be cornermen so they decided maybe they will come liven up BASARA too!

The first appearance of El Desperado in BASARA had a little extra backstory to it involving one of his opponents. Masato Kamino took the New Japan entrance exam back in October 2012 where he gave up on the test halfway through. But he remembers the sight of Kyosuke Mikami watching him in the crowd that day. They were opponents today with Desperado teaming up with Isami Kodaka while Kamino was part of the Aijin Tag with Takato Nakano. Desperado ended up winning when he gave Nakano the Reverse Tiger Driver followed by the Pinche Loco. Desperado praised his opponents and would like for more fans to discover them. He thinks Aijin Tag would even win over NJPW fans if they were to ever wrestle over there. Kodaka said he would love to team with Desperado again because it would be a shame for them to stop after just one match. Nakano said it was a dream come true to fight a New Japan champion because his mother loves NJPW. His next dream is to beat El Desperado! Kamino called this match a milestone in his life and he will be starting again from here. Aijin Tag are now thinking about entering a Jr. Tag tournament to make a new impact.

BASARA “BASARA 284 ~UTAGE~” Results

July 23, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 284 ~UTAGE~”, 23/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Lil’ Kraken defeated Takeru Inoue with a Northern Lights Suplex (10:12).
2. 3 Way Tag Match: Gouma Ryu & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato & Yasu Urano and Daiki Shimomura & Masato Kamino when Ryu pinned Kazato with La Magistral Cradle (9:25).
3. SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Banana Senga by Disqualification when Gouma Ryu and Tsutomu Oosugi both interfered (10:45).
4. Isami Kodaka defeated Takato Nakano with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (12:44).
5. Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls Match: Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ryota Nakatsu (2) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda (1) (26:43).
5a. Takumi Tsukamoto pinned Nakatsu with an Ouchi-gari (15:53).
5b. Ryuichi Sekine submitted Ayumu Honda with the Let’s Combine (21:57).
5c. Ryota Nakatsu pinned Takumi Tsukamoto with a Back Roll Clutch Hold (26:43).

The Korakuen Hall preview was a Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls Match featuring the participants of both the Union MAX Title and Iron Fist Tag Team Title bouts. Ryuichi Sekine attacked Kengo Mashimo from the get go with FUMA and Ayumu Honda joining in the brawl. Meanwhile Takumi Tsukamoto did his best to block Ryota Nakatsu’s big moves and used an Ouchi-gari throw from Judo to pin him. In the second fall Honda was cut off by FUMA from giving Sekine an Arm Lock. That allowed Sekine to put him in the Let’s Combine to win this round by submission. In the final fall Tsukamoto aimed to beat Nakatsu again but Nakatsu caught him in a Back Roll Clutch instead to get the victory. The two got along after the match and agreed that they cannot wait until 3rd August. Honda also spoke out loud for the first time on a BASARA show but simply said he and Mashimo will take the Iron Fist Tag Titles from Hyakusho Ikki. Nakatsu called for all of the wrestlers to get into the ring for the end of the show and said it would be a big loss for the planet if fun things like BASARA disappeared. So they’re going to make the Korakuen Hall show a great one!

Isami Kodaka said it’s been a while since his last singles match with Takato Nakano but he could see how much he has grown since then. Kodaka is confident that if Nakano was at his mercy today then he isn’t worried that Aijin Tag can beat him and El Desperado at Korakuen. Nakano said whether his team wins or loses, the biggest thing in pro wrestling is presence. Masato Kamino pointed out that he and Nakano will always be together while Kodaka & Desperado do not have that kind of loyalty to each other. He is confident their strength together will win out at the end.

“ISAMI KODAKA 23RD ANNIVERSARY EVENT” Results

July 19, 2025

“ISAMI KODAKA 23RD ANNIVERSARY EVENT”, 18/07/2025
Kanagawa Post di Amistad
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Parka Contra Parka Match: Ayato Yoshida defeated Isami Kodaka with a Back Drop (32:08).

Isami Kodaka came up with an idea to do a one match independent show away from BASARA to celebrate the 23rd anniversary of his debut. He fought Ayato Yoshida from 2AW and they both decided to put their hoodies on the line so there would be a prize to fight for. Minoru Fujita was at ringside for the match and even got involved in the ring at points. But Yoshida ended up getting the clean win and possession of Kodaka’s ATDK hoodie.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Lil’ Kraken & Takeru Inoue Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shota Kawakami

A couple more matches added to BASARA’s return to Korakuen Hall. One of them is another match against GanPro to continue that inter-promotional rivalry. The other match is a complete cluster of BASARA wrestlers finding people to fill up a 3 Way trios match.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “FUCKED UP FEST 2025”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR

1. Special Single Match: Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Tatsuhiko Yoshino
2. Special Single Match: MAO Vs K4PY
3. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs Gabai Ji-chan
4. Special Tag Team Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Mr. Malo & Mr. Bueno
5. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes Vs Kota Sekifuda

We have two special Baka Gaijin + Friends shows coming up in August. The first is the brand’s debut in Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR for the second ever “FUCKED UP FEST”. It will be a festival of wrestling and music that when mashed together results in the name of the show. Kota Sekifuda, Gabai Ji-chan and Tatsuhiko Yoshino are among the guest wrestlers taking part.

Sekifuda tweeted that when he made the decision to go leave Big Japan and go freelance, Chris Brookes was the first person who offered him a booking.

K4PY previously wrestled under the name Takahiro Katori. I think it’s just a fairly recent name change like within the last month or so.

DDT “D GENERATIONS 5 ~UNFINISHED SHACHIHOKO BOYS~”, 16/08/2025
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall

1. Ilusion Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Hideki Okatani Vs Ryoma Tsukamoto
3. Shota Vs Yuya Koroku
4. Special Tag Match: Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida Vs Ryutaro Ono & Masanorikanu Watanabe
5. Special Single Match: To-y Vs Grand Passion Mask No. 4
6. Special Tag Match: Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yu Shimizu & Ali Najima

The D GENERATIONS lot don’t have to worry as much about the Young Communication on their next show because it is being held in Nagoya. That means several Nagoya based wrestlers will be facing them instead. Only Shota from the Young Communication generation will be there for a match against Yuya Koroku.

This caught my eye. Ryutaro Ono is a 35 year old CEO of five different companies (among them being related to agriculture, a café and welfare for the elderly and disabled) who only just debuted in pro wrestling for Sportiva Entertainment in May of this year. His tag partner for the match is MMA fighter Masanorikanu Watanabe.

DDT “OSAKA VS TOKYO – DREAM EAST VS WEST PRO WRESTLING BATTLE 2025”, 17/08/2025
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Rukiya Return Match: Rukiya Vs X
2. East Vs West Vs Unknown All-Out Competition ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Iino (Tokyo) & Yukio Naya (Tokyo) Vs Chris Brookes (UK) & Takeshi Masada (Osaka) Vs Ilusion (Unknown) & MJ Paul (Unknown)
3. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan (Tokyo), To-y (Saitama) & Kazuki Hirata (Tokyo) Vs Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima), Shigehiro Irie (Osaka) & Mikiya Sasaki (Osaka)
4. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 8-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi (Hokkaido), Daisuke Sasaki (Tokyo), HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) Vs Yuki Ueno (Osaka), Hideki Okatani (Kochi), KANON (Ishikawa) & Kazuma Sumi (Mie)
5. Eastern Army Offer Match: MAO (Miyagi) (w/ KIMIHIRO (Tokyo)) Vs Super Sasadango Machine (Niigata)
6. Western Army Offer Match: Jun Akiyama (Osaka) Vs Miyu Yamashita (Fukuoka)

Two matches on the East Vs West show will focus on just one side of the country. The East side of Japan offers MAO against Super Sasadango Machine. Not bad. But the West side has come up with the utterly cracked pairing of Jun Akiyama Vs Miyu Yamashita! This is before Akiyama’s KO-D Openweight Title match too so if Yamashita somehow pulls out a victory, or maybe even a draw she may end up having an argument for getting a future KO-D Title shot herself!

SUPER JAPAN “SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ~SUPER JAPAN PRO WRESTLING HATAAGE-SEN”, 19/08/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku Vs MIKAMI
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Yuji, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Fuminori Abe, Takuya Nomura & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa

A new face has signed an exclusive contract with Super Japan. But his alter ego should be familiar to a lot of people following this space. Mac Matsushita made debuted as a pro wrestler in Mexico but had a run in DDT and the indies as Maku Donaruto. You remember him, the super perverted Ronald McDonald gimmick? Yeah that’s the guy. Well, Sanshiro Takagi has been trying to get him to ditch the mask to wrestle as himself and he has succeeded in convincing him. Matsushita’s return match in Japan will be on the 19th August Super Japan show.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “MNL”, 22/08/2025
The Social House, Makati, Philippines

1. International Dream Match: Jake De Leon & Isaiah Valencia Vs Chris Bookes & Takeshi Masada

The second Baka Gaijin show of August will be their first time taking the show outside of Japan. Baka Gaijin is heading over to the Philippines as part of a weekend of wrestling put together by Dexcon. The first match announced sees Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada taking on the local pair of Jake De Leon & Isaiah Valencia.

DDT “SANKO MANUFACTURING CO., LTD. OME PRESENTS HARASHIMA RETURNS HOME! ~WE’RE HOLDING A SHOW IN OME! WHY? BECAUSE IT’S MY HOMETOWN!~”, 27/07/2025

5. HARASHIMA Debut 24th Anniversary Match – Special 6-Man Tag Match: HARASHIMA, Togi Makabe & Yasu Urano Vs Shinya Aoki, Shuji Ishikawa & Akito

The two members of NωA Jr. who aren’t injured are going to face each other! Yuni and Kazuma Sumi better not destroy themselves out there. They still have a solo concert to prepare for and Shunma Katsumata’s injury doesn’t help things.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. GRACE PROJECT Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Captain Grace, Shigehiro Irie & Daiki Shimomura Vs Tomoya Hirata, Mizuki Watase, Ultra Soki & HIROYA
2. Special Tag Match: Isami Kodaka & El Desperado Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino
3. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA (c) Vs Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda
4. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs Takumi Tsukamoto

You know I should have seen this coming. BASARA gets new management with Ryota Nakatsu and Takumi Tsukamoto becoming the two most powerful figures in charge. So when Nakatsu went looking for someone to challenge him for the Union MAX Title, Tsukamoto was standing right there until Nakatsu chose him as his next challenger.

The Iron Fist Tag Team Champions have made new enemies. Hyakusho Ikki thought Ayumu Honda wanted to join them but what he really wants is to take the tag titles from them! Honda already had it planned out because he had a tag partner chosen and everything. Kengo Mashimo is back in BASARA and wasted no time in starting a fight with Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA.

BASARA “BASARA 283 ~UTAGE~” Results

July 8, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 283 ~UTAGE~”, 08/07/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Daiki Shimomura defeated Takeru Inoue with the Swanton Bomb (8:59).
2. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Gouma Ryu when Oosugi pinned Ryu after a Double Brainbuster (7:52).
3. SAGAT & Minoru Fujita defeated Daichi Kazato & Munetatsu Nakamura when SAGAT pinned Kazato with the Gore Grind (10:56).
4. Masato Kamino, Lil’ Kraken & Fuminori Abe defeated Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ayumu Honda when Kraken pinned Sekine with the Period. (13:41).
5. Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Takato Nakano when Nakatsu pinned Nakano with the V Slider (14:13).

During the main event Takumi Tsukamoto taunted Ryota Nakatsu in a bid to provoke the Union MAX Champion. But his attempt to hive him the Zudon was stopped by Isami Kodaka and Nakatsu went on to beat Takato Nakano with the V Slider. After the match Nakatsu told Takeru Inoue to hand him over an envelope because inside it was the name of his next MAX Title challenger. He then crumpled up the envelope and decided Tsukamoto will face him for the title at Korakuen Hall on 3rd August! The two of them are now the highest ranked management in BASARA so Nakatsu thinks the promotion’s biggest match of the year should be between those two. Tsukamoto said he will do his best to win the title and write BASARA’s next page.

It turns out Ayumu Honda really didn’t want to join forces with Hyakusho Ikki. He betrayed Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA and helped Lil’ Kraken with the match for the other team. Honda whispered into Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi’s ear after the match and had him interpret his message. Hiroshi told Hyakusho Ikki that Honda would never join a lame team like them. He only went near them because he wants the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. He already has a partner ready and he’s at the show today. Suddenly out walked Kengo Mashimo and he started fighting Hyakusho Ikki with Honda that made its way to the back! Later when things calmed down FUMA said Honda had made fun of farmers. Sekine warns that when you make fun of farmers you will see hell! They’re going to fight Honda & Mashimo fair and square with the Iron Fist Tag Titles on the line.

After Match #3 several wrestlers all got in the ring trying to figure out what match they should have on 3rd August. Daichi Kazato completely lost track of who he wanted to team with so Gouma Ryu suggested they do a 3 Way Trios Match. Ryu himself isn’t going to wrestle. Instead he wants to be in the corner of Speed Of Sounds & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. Kazato decided he will team with Yasu Urano and a third person. Both Minoru Fujita & SAGAT agreed to team with each other and go find another partner. Later in the day Hiroshi, Ryu & SOS all decided to form a new unit called with-kai.
