As Tokyo Joshi Pro heads on the long journey to “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2021”, the landscape went through a big shift inside an empty Korakuen Hall today. Miyu Yamashita is now a 3 time Princess Of Princess Champion after she won it from Rika Tatsumi. She got a big hit in early with a High Kick. Tatsumi recovered to take control with Hip Attacks and submission holds. A back and forth saw kickouts to both the Attitude Adjustment and the Twist Of Fate. Tatsumi thought she had her opponent worn out with the Dragon Sleeper so she climbed the turnbuckle for the Missile Hips. Yamashita surprised her by catching her with a block and following through with a German Suplex. Tatsumi tried to stay in the fight by throwing more Hip Attacks until Yamashita knocked her silly with the Skull Kick. Tatsumi was able to kick out of the pin but another Skull Kick followed by the Crash Rabbit Heat brought the end to her title reign.
Yamashita herself was a little light headed after the match and needed confirmation from Maki Itoh at ringside to register that she won the match. She is sad that there were no fans in Korakuen today but is happy that they got to watch her on their screens at home. She invited Yuka Sakazaki into the ring to confirm they will face each other for the Princess Title at Saitama Super Arena on 6th June. Sakazaki calls it the match to determine the strongest in TJPW, and she’s going to win. Yamashita hopes the match will happen in front of a big audience so she’ll become even stronger as a champion.
NEO Biishiki-gun had their hands full against BeeStar in their first Princess Tag Team Titles defence. Mei Saint-Michel had her fun bullying Suzume until Suzume Dropkicked the silver tray into Saint-Michel’s chest. Mirai Maiumi sent the champs packing with a Double Lariat and then held them outside the ring for Suzume to dive onto them. Back in the ring Suzume went to do the Ring A Bell but Saint-Michel pushed her into Sakisama for a Big Boot. They then did the Tarte Tatin but Suzume kicked out at two. Sakisama got rid of Mirai with a High Kick which meant there was no one to rescue Suzume from giving up to the Saint-Michel. BeeStar may have earned a little bit of Sakisama’s respect though. She didn’t remember them before but today she learned who they are. They will have to give NEO Biishiki-gun thousands of reasons why they deserve a rematch but Sakisama will give them another go if she ever feel likes it.
The big upset of the day came when Hikari Noa beat Yuki Kamifuku to win the International Princess Title! Noa brought the fight out of the ring where Kamifuku was thrown into the ring post. Chairs were piled up on the floor but it was Kamifuku who slammed Noa onto them. Kamifuku caused more damage using chairs before the match went back to the ring. The match took a lot out of both wrestlers. Kamifuku climbed the ropes but Noa caught up with her to hit a Modified Avalanche Uranage. Back on their feet, Noa then hit the Blizzard Suplex for the three count, winning her first championship in her career. Backstage Kamifuku admitted that today Noa was a proper idol. She didn’t wear colored contact lenses and her concert performance at the start of the show was sharp. Kamifuku lost her title but thinks she is about to graduate into something bigger. She will become the Fujiko Mine of Fujisawa! Noa had a lot on her mind after winning the title. Her original tag team partner was the first champion and she was never able to have a title match against her. Then her most recent tag partner Sena Shiori said she wanted to see Noa win the title. Noa now wonders if this is her next step in becoming the Best Death Match Queen in the world. Whatever happens to her next, she wants to dye the IP Title in her colours and not the colour of Kamifuku.
Sakazaki won the 3 Way Match to become the No. 1 Contender, besting both Mizuki and Shoko Nakajima. At first The Magical Sugar Rabbits worked together but Mizuki broke the link by attacking Sakazaki when the chance presented itself. Mizuki and Nakajima then worked together to go 2-on-1 against Sakazaki. The loop was completed when The Miraclians helped each other out against Mizuki. A big scramble of finishers at the end had Nakajima give Mizuki the Northern Lights Suplex. But Sakazaki snuck in and pinned Nakajima with the Koromogawa to take the victory and book her place in Saitama Super Arena.
The debuting Yuki Arai started off her tag match with Arisu Endo but it was only a matter of time until she faced Maki Itoh. Obviously Arai was fighting from the bottom against those two but had Miu Watanabe there to keep things even. Watanabe distracted Itoh long enough for Arai to dodge the Flying Big Head. Arai then hit her signature moved, the Kakato Otoshi axe kick that she calls Finally (named after the SKE48 song). Endo broke the count so Arai went to do the move again. Itoh dodged it this time and Headbutted the rookie. She then planted her with a DDT and got her to tap to the Itoh Deluxe. Itoh called Arai weak after the match but also told her there are still fans watching at home who got courage from her performance. This isn’t Yuki Arai the SKE48 idol, it is Yuki Arai the pro wrestler! It doesn’t matter how many years it takes, Itoh is encouraging Arai to come and crush her because Itoh will crush Arai as many times as she wants!
Hyper Misao revealed that she and The Bakuretsu Sisters are the Tojo Tokusatsu Club and they prepared a secret plan called Formation A. It was supposed to be a combined attack when Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino carried Misao over their heads but it collapsed in failure. Raku then did the Good Night Express with Nao Kakuta & Marika Kobashi for added insult. The Tokusatsu Club regained their senses to win the match. After all, Tokyo Dome City is a sacred place not just for pro wrestling but for superheroes too.
Moka Miyamoto is still searching for her first win, roping in Mahiro Kiryu to help her. She put Pom Harajuku in the Cobra Twist but Haruna Neko broke the hold. Miyamoto then hit a Zero Fighter Kick for another nearfall. Harajuku turned the tables with a Dropkick and won with the Pom Do Justice.
It was an empty arena show but The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) still performed their show opening act.

7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) defeated Maki Itoh with the Missile Hip (19:36).
*V2 for Rika Tatsumi.
The middle fingers went a flying in the Princess Of Princess Title match. When Maki Itoh attempted to apply the Itoh Special, Rika Tatsumi gave her the finger. Itoh bit it so Tatsumi gave her the finger with her other hand only for Itoh to bite that too. The distraction threw Itoh off her game anyway and Tatsumi caught her in the Dragon Sleeper. Itoh survived being choked out by raising her own middle fingers into the air. She had a last gasp at victory by rolling Tatsumi into the Itoh Royal but only got a two count out of it. Tatsumi used a Hip Attack to cut off her opponent’s momentum. She then hit the Twist Of Fate and pinned Itoh with the Missile Hip from the top rope.
Tatsumi praised Itoh for her efforts and asked her to come back for a fist bump. Itoh stuck her middle finger in Tatsumi’s face instead and left. Tatsumi then called for Miyu Yamashita’s attention. Three years ago Yamashita gave her a title shot in the main event of Korakuen Hall during Golden Week. Tatsumi couldn’t beat her then but things are different now. She wants to be the strongest champion and to do that she needs to beat the strongest challengers. That means Tatsumi wants to defend the belt against Yamashita next! She asked if Yamashita is prepared to take the challenge? Yamashita responded by slapping Tatsumi across the face. Tatsumi slapped her back and said their title match will happen on the 4th May Korakuen show.
The first “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart winners barely won the Princess Tag Team Titles by the skin of their teeth. The Bakuretsu Sisters did the smart thing by getting rid of Sakisama. That was set up when Yuki Aino blocked Sakisama’s Apron PK and held her on her shoulders so Nodoka Tenma could his the Bakuretsu Bulldog onto the floor. That left Mei Saint-Michel scrambling to continue fighting by herself. Tenma gave her the Killswitch and it looked to be all over. However, Saint-Michel suddenly Cradled Tenma and got the three count for the shock result.
Sakisama asked Saint-Michel how she was feeling now they are the champions? “C’est bien!” Now that she has her own championship belt that matches with Sakisama’s, she thinks she has achieved her goal of becoming a fully fledged maid! Suddenly, BeeStar entered the ring to cut off her victory speech, causing Saint-Michel to freeze on the spot. Mirai Maiumi apologized for the interruption but she wants to challenge NEO Biishiki-gun for the Princess Tag Titles. Suzume admitted they’ve been beaten by the new champions before but they are not the same now as they were back then. BeeStar will beat them to evolve even more! Sakisama told BeeStar she doesn’t remember who they are. She also doesn’t have time right now because she is very busy playing the new Monster Hunter. So Sakisama is giving BeeStar two weeks to improve because they will get their title match on 4th May.
With three defences achieved, Yuki Kamifuku now has the most successful International Princess Title run in the championship’s short history. Her grudge with Nao Kakuta over glamour against normality has also been settled with today’s result. Kakuta’s attempt to use her Shiden Kai finisher was countered into the Famouser. Kamifuku also used her long legs to fight out of a Crossface Lock, hit a Dropkick and used another Famouser to get the win. They shook hands and Kakuta told the press afterwards that during the handshake Kamifuku quietly apologized for calling her ugly.
BeeStar were the last team standing in Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first ever 3 Way Tag Match. The rules put in place allowed no tags so it was more of a tornado tag team affair. To make things even more unusual, the Kyoraku Kyomei team had a difference of opinion that led to Hyper Misao offering to team with The Magical Sugar Rabbits while Shoko Nakajima wanted to side with BeeStar. It turned out to be a trick and the two were still together all along. The match was frantic with different pairings going at it. BeeStar got rid of MagiRabi when Maiumi hit Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki with a Double Lariat. Nakajima grabbed Suzume for the Northern Lights Suplex but that left her vulnerable for Maiumi to hit her with the Lariat and win the match.
Hikari Noa still has a lot to learn if she wants to beat the likes of Yamashita. She’s gotten stronger by having the Hardcore Match a while ago but was a bit too eager to charge into a Front Kick at the corner. That gave Yamashita the opening to hit the Skull Kick.
Raku getting the win for her team turned out to be special because today is her mother’s birthday. Both Miu Watanabe & Pom Harajuku sang “Happy Birthday to Raku-chan’s mom” backstage when she told them about it. Yuna Manase motivated Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko to continue doing their best even though they lost. Even though Manase is in a different promotion now, she is still watching over TJPW and wants everyone to meet her expectations.
The opening match saw Sena Shiori earn her first victory with a new submission move. The Checkmate is an Arm Clutch Half Crab Hold and Shiori made Moka Miyamoto submit to it. It is a move Shiori has been thinking about because using a normal Crab Hold wasn’t working for her. She thanked Marika Kobashi for teaming with her and said it is really encouraging to work with Kobashi. Both Miyamoto and Arisu Endo are left waiting for another day to get their first win.
Yuki Arai introduced herself to the fans at the start of the show. She is still worried about her debut wrestling match on 4th May while also working as an idol. She wants to grow from here so everyone can say her debut match was a success.
The 2021 Tokyo Princess Cup will be held across multiple shows during the summer. The first two rounds will be held at Shin-Kiba 1st RING from 22nd to 25th July. The quarter finals will be held in Shinjuku FACE on 31st July. The final rounds will be held in Korkauen Hall on 15th August.

6. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Arisu Endo when Tatsumi submitted Endo with the Dragon Sleeper (12:47).
The first Tokyo Joshi Pro show held in front of a women only audience was considered a big success. Rika Tatsumi gathered everyone in the main event together at the end to promote TJPW’s upcoming shows and tell the fans they will be waiting for them. For the backstage comments, Tatsumi was grateful to see so many people come to see the show. Miu Watanabe has performed in front of women only crowds before at idol concerts but she had great fun wrestling in front of them too. Suzume liked seeing the fans look so happy and wondered if she looked the same back when she was a fan attending shows. Yuka Sakazaki said there was a floral smell in the air coming from the audience. Mizuki joked that they smell better than Sakazaki but she still smells nice, like bathing in the forest. Arisu Endo just laughed at them arguing and stayed out of it.
Since today was “Girl’s Day” Maki Itoh gifted Miyu Yamashita one of her ribbons to tie in her hair for their match. HikaShio pulled it out, telling her it doesn’t look good on her. Itoh wouldn’t forgive them and the match became heated from there. Itoh dropped Hikari Noa with a DDT, Yamashita hit Sena Shiori with the Skull Kick and Itoh pinned her with the Flying Big Head. Yamashita couldn’t find the ribbon after the match and left the ring feeling sad.
Traps were laid out by Hyper Misao to distract each of her opponents and isolate Haruna Neko from the rest of her team. They placed a mouse toy for Nao Kakuta to play with but Neko caught it instead. Also a rice ball was left out for Nodoka Tenma but she picked it up to eat in the ring instead of eating it at the entrance stage. Misao then attempted the ambush but was surprised to see it didn’t work. At least Shoko Nakajima & Raku were there to help get Misao out of trouble.
The usual Up Up Girls performance at the start of the show was delayed thanks to an early appearance from NEO Biishiki-gun. They thanked everyone for attending their “beauty theatre” today. Sakisama asked Mei Saint-Michel what role she would like to play. She innocently replied she wanted to play Sakisama! The real Sakisama didn’t know how to react but when it was time for their match, Saint-Michel got to wear Sakisama’s hat and attack their opponents with her rose. After they defeated Yuki Aino & Mahiro Kiryu, Sakisama told them they are best suited for playing the roles of stones and trees. When NEO Biishiki-gun wins the Princess Tag Team Titles the belts will become diamond class graded at one million carats!
Before the 3 Way Match began, all participants agreed to compete without wearing any lipstick, colored contact lenses or foundation. Anyone caught breaking that rule would be disqualified immediately. Yuki Kamifuku walked out with light makeup on her face and Marika Kobashi wore sunglasses but everyone gave each other the OK to start the match. Kobashi was targeted because of the sunglasses. She argued a Gal should have vibes so she needs to wear the glasses to replace the contact lenses. Pom Harajuku armed herself with makeup remover wiped Kamifuku’s face with it. Kamifuku used the same wipes on Kobashi before pinning Harajuku with the Famouser.
For the opening match, Mirai Maiumi stomped her feet to get the audience to clap for her and Moka Miyamoto.
The second “GO GIRL” show will take place on 11th July at Itabashi Green Hall. Today’s show was free attendance but tickets for the second show will be priced at 2,000 yen.

6. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino, Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Miu Watanabe & Marika Kobashi when Tenma pinned Kobashi with the Killswitch (13:41).
Hyper Misao said her team today have all bonded together because they are a bunch of hero otakus. Their big combination move involved Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Shoko Nakajima all lifting up Misao and charging her into their opponents like a battering ram. However their opponents kept dodging out of the way and Misao hit into the turnbuckle many times. Miu Watanabe then put Misao in a submission and her partners did their own triple team move. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Marika Kobashi all grabbed the bottom rope and leaned back from the ring apron, chanting “Do your best!” to Misao as she tried to reach over for the rope that was being pulled away from her. The Magical Sugar Rabbits prevented The Bakuretsu Sisters from doing the Bakuretsu Bulldog on Kobashi. But the match whittled down to Tenma pinned Kobashi with the Killswitch.
Nao Kakuta wanted to confront Yuki Kamifuku after their match but Kamifuku pushed her away and left.
Both Raku and Sena Shiori hid under the ring for Miyu Yamashita’s entrance so they could ambush her together. Their teamwork eventually faded away and the match became more like the 3 Way it was supposed to be. From there Yamashita was able to pick apart her opponents and win.

1. Mizuki defeated Miu Watanabe with the Diving Foot Stomp (14:04).
2. Rika Tatsumi defeated Raku with the Missile Hips (10:26).
3. Hardcore Match: Rina Yamashita defeated Hikari Noa with the Splash Mountain onto the Chairs (19:05).
For her first ever hardcore match, Hikari Noa looked like she was born to do it. Fighting in a Jun Kasai inspired costume, Noa got a taste of violence by facing off against Rina Yamashita. Her first weapon of choice was a box filled with CDs and glowsticks which she emptied over the ring. She also got Yamashita to crash into a board with glowsticks glued onto it in the corner. Yamashita put Noa through a table at ringside with the Fire Thunder but Noa would later smash a broken piece of the table over her opponent’s head. Noa would then mimic Kasai by doing the Pearl Harbor Splash, goggles and all for a nearfall. Yamashita took over with a well timed Lariat and pinned Noa with the Splash Mountain onto a pile of chairs to win.
Noa told Yamashita after the match that she was feeling the pain but still had fun. A little too much fun because Noa wants to do it again tomorrow! Yamashita said she is busy tomorrow but she will always agree to a rematch when Noa calls her again. She also enjoyed the match and told Noa that the worlds of Hardcore and Death Match wrestling welcomes her! Noa thought today’s match was an April Fool’s joke when she first heard about it. But her dream came through and now she wants to go one step further and do a death match. In her backstage interview, Noa said she wants to end up with a cool looking back like Jun Kasai’s. Her favorite weapon is barbed wire because it is made to hurt people. So she wants to become the Death Match Queen with barbed wire!
Raku hid underneath to commit an odd ambush on Rika Tatsumi before their match. She snuck up on Tatsumi and successfully taped a teddy bear onto Tatsumi’s backside. Tatsumi quickly hit Raku with the Hip Attack but the teddy bear cushioned the blow and made the move useless. Tatsumi was able to tear the tape off, remove the bear and wrestle the rest of the match as normal.
For a while Mizuki stopped using the Whirling Candy but she brought it back when Miu Watanabe turned out to be very difficult to beat. Watanabe kicked out of it but was pinned with the Diving Foot Stomp afterwards.
The next edition of “TJPW INSPIRATION” will be held on 1st July.

Two teams went into battle to win the much desired all you can eat meal from Genghis Khan Kirishima. Team Red were led by Shoko Nakajima while Team White was captained by Rika Tatsumi. They cheered on their teammates throughout the 11 match challenge while Shota and Tetsuya Koda did commentary.
Nakajima went first for her team and defeated Mahiro Kiryu in the opening match. 2 Count Rules meant everybody was kept on their toes and looking for quick pins. Nakajima proved that by using a Hurricanrana to win.
Team Red then went 2-0 when Pom Harajuku beat Arisu Endo. The rookie tried to capitalise from a missed Pom Do Justice but Harajuku dodged her follow up and got her finisher the second time for the pin.
HikaShio were pitted against each other with both Hikari Noa and Sena Shiori determined to win. Noa got the better of her tag partner with a Rotating Leg Fold cradle (I thought she had a name for that, the Saigo No Bansan or something?).
A karate confrontation was up next when Miyu Yamashita faced Moka Miyamoto. After some back and forth sparring, Yamashita won with the Skull Kick, tying the scored at 2-2.
The first of several time limit draws started with Mirai Maiumi Vs Hyper Misao. But before that happened, Misao came out wearing another mask over her own. She claimed to be an incarnation of the being that controls the masks of all heroes and it had taken over Misao’s body to search for a once in a century talent. She believes Maiumi is that person and she offered her a superhero mask that contained the spirits of all the past heroes. Maiumi fell for the trick and Misao attacked her, revealing she isn’t being possessed at all. The five minutes expired while Mirai was trying to get her opponent in the Miramare. She went back to the move when the match restarted but Misao rolled on top of her for the sudden death 1 Count Pin to win.
The restaurant sponsoring the show specializes in lamb meat so Miu Watanabe spent last night counting sheep in bed so she could win with her head full of sheep. Marika Kobashi though kicked out of a Falling Canadian Backbreaker at one and fought Watanabe to a time limit draw. Kobashi then surprised Watanabe with a Cradle to quickly win during extra time. After six matches the show was at its halfway point and the captains did quick interviews about the results so far. It was 3-3 so still all to play for.
The Raku Vs Yuki Aino match began with Raku inviting Aino to lie down next to her for the Good Night Express. It also caused the referee to lie down too. When it came to actually wrestling, Aino pinned Raku with the Side Suplex.
Yuki Kamifuku is confused over why Nao Kakuta’s nickname is “Rat Chaser”. Kakuta explained that it’s not her nickname but her catchphrase. Also, Kakuta has been here for four months already and everyone has accepted her except for one person, Yuki Kamifuku! She was determined to beat her today even is Kamifuku is a champion. The two fought tooth and nail with each other, lasting the full five minutes. In overtime, Kakuta gouged Kamifuku’s eyes from behind and pinned her with a School Boy for the upset.
Mizuki described her match with Nodoka Tenma like it was a rabbit against a raccoon. She Dropkicked Tenma out of the ring then hit a Diving Body Press out of the ring. Tenma tried to do the Killswitch but Mizuki countered it into the Cutie Special for the pinfall.
With two matches left, Team White had a chance to win the challenge early if Haruna Neko could beat Yuka Sakazaki. Luckily for Team Red, Sakazaki outsmarted Neko and won with the Magical Merry-Go-Round.
With the score tied at 5-5 it was all on the line in the final match. Team White captain Tatsumi fought against Suzume, who knew she now had a lot of responsibility on her shoulders. She went for the win but couldn’t get Tatsumi pinned for long enough. Time ran out and the last match went into overtime. Suzume kicked out of a Hip Attack before the 1 Count but she was done for when Tatsumi hit a Sliding Hip attack for the victory.
Team White were declared the winners and given the meal voucher by Koda. Tatsumi wanted to go eat with Mizuki straight away but then said all of Team White should go together to celebrate. Nakajima complained about the results and told Koda that Suzume deserves something for her performance. He should do something before Nakajima reveals what secret Maria Makino merchandise Koda keeps in his room. Koda stopped her and said everyone who wrestled today deserves a meal so he will treat everyone to lunch at Genghis Khan Kirishima!

The Bakuretsu Sisters have one goal on their minds in the “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament. They want to cement their status as THE tag team in Tokyo Joshi Pro’s entire existence. The current Princess Tag Team Champions are on track to prove it by eliminating The Magical Sugar Rabbits in the first round! Nodoka Tenma asked for some time to rest but Yuki Aino reminded her that Round 2 takes place tomorrow.
Mei Saint-Michel went into today’s show still depressed over experiencing her first defeat. She cheered herself up by copying Marika Kobashi & Raku’s mannerisms and told Sakisama she is okay after they won their match. Mei’s attempts at doing Kobashi’s Gal poses annoyed Sakisama, who thinks they are vulgar. Later backstage something ominous happened. Sakiama’s rose fell apart in her hands during her post-match interview. She thinks it’s a sign that a storm is coming tonight. What could that storm be?
The tournament is a chance for the lower level wrestlers to step up but Rika Tatsumi thinks her opponents failed to do that today. She wanted Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko to come at Daydream with enough momentum to break them but Tatsumi was left disappointed. Miu Watanabe expected them to have more unique attacks than just sneaker kicks and nail scratching. On the bright side, at least the result showed that Daydream are still a powerful force together.
Yuki Kamifuku celebrates her birthday today by advancing to Round 2 with Mahiro Kiryu. Kamifuku’s advice to her tag partner is to look beyond just winning the Max Heart tournament. Everyone in the tournament is thinking about winning so their goal should be to gain Max popularity!
Tomorrow’s Round 2 matches are Daydream Vs Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh, Toyo University Tag Vs Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori, Bakuretsu Sisters Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao and NEO Biishiki-gun Vs BeeStar. Everyone who lost in the 1st Round today are being thrown into an 8-Woman Tag Match.
