333 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) defeated Haru Kazashiro & Toga when Itoh submitted Kazashiro with the Itoh Deluxe (19:35).
*V2 for 121000000.

The Next Generation team of Haru Kazashiro & Toga faced up to the seniors they idolize the most for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s 11th Anniversary. They launched an attack where Toga hit Miyu Yamashita with the Elbow Butt while Kazashiro knocked down Maki Itoh with the Low Cross Body. Kazashira then gave Itoh the Fisherman Suplex but Yamashita made it over to break the pin in time. Toga took care of Yamashita with the Rock Bottom but Kazashiro couldn’t pull off a second Fisherman Suplex. Instead Itoh blocked her offence, knocked her down with the Stunner and made her submit to the Itoh Deluxe.

Itoh reminded Kazashiro about her making the title challenge last week. She said she knew back then than Kazashiro would show her something interesting in today’s match. But this can’t be the end, right? Kazashiro can still do more. She and Toga are welcome to challenge 121000000 again. This time Itoh dares them to try and break her middle finger! Yamashita also told Toga not to be satisfied until she can beat her. Everyone in the ring should all get stronger so they can have better matches against each other. 121000000 are now looking forward to the 4th January Korakuen Hall show. They are ready to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against any team from around the world.

When Match #5 was over Mizuki called Miu Watanabe to get back into the ring. Mizuki talked to her about how much everyone in TJPW has grown since she last held the Princess Of Princess Title. She couldn’t help but feel disappointed seeing Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima and Rika Tatsumi all lose to Watanabe in title matches this year but it is also cool to see how bright Watanabe is shining as the champion. Watanabe is now the unbeatable monster and Mizuki thinks she is the only one left who can challenge her. Watanabe corrected Mizuki and said she is a princess, not a monster. They will fight for the title on 4th January to see who the true princess is!

Mizuki also threw in her support for Suzume as she gets ready for her International Princess Title match on 4th Janaury. She told her they will do their best to win the two championships together. Meanwhile Watanabe still took exception to being called a monster. She told reporters backstage that a princess is someone who beats monsters just like in a certain anime. Do no call her a monster under any circumstances! Watanabe beats monsters so that means she is a princess!

Rika Tatsumi told her opponents she is the God of 3 Way Matches. She ordered Kaya Toribami and Chika Nanase to fight each other and she would take on the winner. She then sat on the corner turnbuckle and yelled instructions at them until they caught her trying to pin one behind the other’s back. The 3 Way went on as normal and she ended up winning anyway.

At the start of the show TJPW introduced British wrestler Ivy Steele to the audience. Steele is a university student from Manchester, England who is currently studying in Japan as part of a foreign exchange. She already has experience wrestling in Britain under the name Fifi and it’s been her dream to wrestle in Japan. She is currently training in the TJPW dojo and will have her first match with the promotion on 14th December in Yokohama.

The sixth annual Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao Ittenyon match was announced for 4th January.

The Full Card For Ultimate Party 2024

November 24, 2024

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2024”, 28/12/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Demus & Ilusion Vs Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
2. Shuji Ishikawa, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Shinichiro Kawamatsu Vs Masahiro Takanashi, Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida
3. DDT Vs TJPW Full-Scale 6-Man Tag Match: Toru Owashi, Super Sasadango Machine & Antonio Honda Vs Rika Tatsumi, Hyper Misao & Pom Harajuku
4. Special Tag Match ~ O-MENZ Kumadori Debut Match: Kazuki Hirata & Kumadori Vs Makoto Oishi & Akito
5. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ Haruto Sakuraba Debut Match: KANON, MJ Paul & Haruto Sakuraba Vs HARASHIMA, Yuki Iino & Soma Takao.
6. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & Keigo Nakamura Vs Kenoh & Yu Owada
7. Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Takeshi Masada
8. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya
9. Special Single Match: Great-O-Khan Vs Danshoku Dieno
10. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & To-y Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku
11. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes Vs Daisuke Sasaki

Here is the full lineup for DDT’s final show of the year. New KO-D Tag Team Champions will be crowned with the replacement match keeping The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING as its theme. You’d think To-y will want to win the belts for Shunma Katsumata but instead he is fighting for himself. That is a lesson for Yuya Koroku to learn, you still need an ego to make it as a pro wrestler.

Great-O-Khan Vs Danshoku Dieno is for the sickos but probably not the sickos you want to associate with. It’s the holder of New Japan’s notorious King Of Pro Wrestling Title taking on the DDT Extreme Champion, which is pretty much what the KOPW is trying to be. At the moment neither title seems to be on the line.

The original “ULTIMATE PARTY” shows were to bring all of the DDT (and later CyberFight) brands together so NOAH and Tokyo Joshi Pro will both have some presence on the card. Shinya Aoki has a bad habit of constantly calling out opponents for matches that no company wants to book for one reason or another. When he’s not trying to challenge Katsuhiko Nakajima to a fight he is instead trying to goad Kenoh into wrestling him. It is well known by now how much Kenoh looks down on DDT. He will bitterly accept them for what they are but he would rather be caught dead than stand in a DDT ring again. However Aoki & Keigo Nakamura have stuck a nerve with him enough to make him swallow his pride and fight in DDT again. He will be joined by NOAH rookie Yu Owada for the tag match. Aoki started this whole thing by saying he is going to beat Kenoh at Budokan Hall on New Year’s Day but I’m not sure if NOAH will actually book that match as a follow up for the DDT bout.

The two celebrities are both being put in tag matches. Haruto Sakuraba is living up to his deal with DAMNATION T.A to team with them in order to become a heel. Kumadori is naturally teaming up with DDT’s resident dancer Kazuki Hirata, mainly because Hirata admits he cannot beat him in dancing or wrestling.

TJPW are sending over the colorful trio of Rika Tatsumi, Hyper Misao & Pom Harajuku to take on the misfit squad of Toru Owashi, Super Sasadango Machine & Antonio Honda. It is a big reunion for Misao and Sasadango. They famously put together Misao’s “retirement” match in 2020 that was actually a surprise announcement of her marriage.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

November 22, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE
429 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami defeated Wakana Uehara, Kira Shummer & Chika Nanase when HIMAWARI submitted Nanase with the Half Crab Hold (8:56).
2. 3 Way Match: Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko and Mahiro Kiryu when Harajuku pinned Neko and Kiryu with a Double Body Press (5:42).
3. Zara Zakher & Yuki Aino defeated Mizuki & Kaya Toribami when Zakher pinned Toribami with the Control Z (9:34).
4. Miu Watanabe, Raku, Suzume & Moka Miyamoto defeated Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku & Yoshiko Hasegawa when Suzume pinned Hasegawa with the Ring A Bell (11:10).
5. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Tatsumi submitted Misao with the White Dragon Sleeper (15:34).
6. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: Haru Kazashiro defeated Toga with the Fisherman Suplex (8:49).
7. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) defeated Shazza McKenzie with the Finally (11:01).
*V6 for Yuki Arai.

That’s successful defence number six for Yuki Arai. The closest Shazza McKenzie could get to beating her was with a Fisherman Suplex that Arai kicked out of. Arai took control from there and used the Full Nelson Buster to set up the match winning Finally. Arai used broken English to tell McKenzie she would like another match with her. But for now she needs a new challenger to continue her record breaking International Princess Title reign. Suzume answered the call and said she wants a match with the dazzling champion. Arai got excited because she hasn’t defended the belt against Suzume yet so she suggested they can have the match at Korakuen Hall on 4th January. That means it will happen exactly one year after she became champion in the same venue! Suzume later explained that pro wrestling is a universal language. For example she doesn’t speak English at all but was still able to wrestle in Seattle recently. If Tokyo Joshi Pro can reach out across the world then she wants to do that as the IP Champion.

The youngest entrant in this year’s New Generation Tournament has won the whole thing! Haru Kazashiro pulled off the upset in the final by defeating Toga. She had Toga scouted by using an Armbar to counter the Rock Bottom. Toga hit back with the Rolling Thunder but Kazashiro was determined not to lose. Both tried to use their finishers to no avail but Kazashiro broke the deadlock by hitting a Low Cross Body. From there she was able to pin Toga with the Fisherman Suplex and win the tournament!

After receiving her winner’s medal, Kazashiro was ready to pick her title shot of choice for being the tournament champion. She always admired Maki Itoh and wants nothing more than to challenge her for a belt so she asked Toga if they can team up to fight 121000000 for the Princess Tag Team Titles! Toga accepted the offer and shook her hand. 121000000 then entered the ring to endorse the challenge. Itoh warned Kazashiro not to fight her as a fan but to beat her as a rival. Hazashiro promised she will crush her! Toga then revealed if she had won the tournament she would have wanted to go after Miyu Yamashita’s championship so she is getting what she wants anyway. Yamashita said she likes the look in Toga’s eyes and decided they should have the title match on 1st December.

For the first time in seven months Hyper Misao was here to protect TJPW for all of the big children who follow it. Before her comeback match began she told the fans how difficult it was to return. She not only had a broken ankle but also a broken heart from having to stay away from the ring for so long. But she kept an eye on TJPW from a distance and what she saw made her want to come back no matter what. She was really happy to be in the ring with Shoko Nakajima and Rika Tatsumi again (and Arisu Endo is there too) so she thought the best way to begin with a fresh start was to shake her opponents’ hands fair and square. Of course that turned out to be a trick so Kyoraku Kyomei could get the jump on Tatsumi & Endo. However Tatsumi was able to get Misao in the White Dragon Sleeper at the end to make her give up. Misao is not going to be pessimistic about her comeback ending in a loss though. She is looking forward to fighting and winning again. Nakajima didn’t mind losing either because whenever Ultraman Leo is defeated, he trains like crazy to get stronger and returns to beat the enemy! She wants to win the Tag Titles so the team will improve to become Super Hyper Kyoraku Kyomei! Meanwhile Tatsumi & Endo are wondering when Misao will produce another “HYPE!” show?

Pom Harajuku had special celebratory sashes made for herself and Haruna Neko to celebrate the 6th anniversary of their wrestling debuts. She also took advantage of Mahiro Kiryu giving Neko the Spinebuster by hooking both of their legs and pinning them for a double three count victory.

TJPW’s three annual big arena shows will all take place at the renovated Ota Ward Gymnasium in 2025. “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” will be on 16th March, “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” will be on 21st July and “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” will be on 20th September.

DDT/TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TRIANGLER DTD” Results

November 11, 2024

DDT/TOKYO JOSHI PRO/DEFY “TRIANGLER DTD”, 10/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA
389 Fans

1. Vert Vixen, Yuki Kamifuku & Moka Miyamoto defeated Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Arisu Endo when Vixen pinned Endo with a Sit Down Power Bomb (8:38).
2. Bryan Keith defeated Shota with the Diamond Dust (7:59).
3. Maki Itoh & Zara Zakher defeated Amira & Danika Della Rouge when Itoh pinned Rouge with the I.S.D (8:41).
4. Daisuke Sasaki & Kohei Kinoshita Vs Danshoku Dieno & Randy Myers ended in a No Contest (9:32).
5. Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Mizuki & Wakana Uehara when Watanabe pinned Uehara with the Tear Drop (10:33).
6. DEFY Women’s Title: Marina Shafir (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Mother’s Milk (14:08).
*V4 for Marina Shafir.
7. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA defeated Yuni with the Wagamama (12:14).
8. DDT Universal Title – 3 Way Match: Gringo Loco defeated Miyu Yamashita (c) and Nick Wayne when Loco pinned Yamashita with the Base Bomb (17:08).
*Miyu Yamashita fails in V1. Gringo Loco becomes the 16th DDT Universal Champion.
9. Special Tag Match: Judas Icarus & Travis Williams defeated MAO & Mike Bailey when Icarus pinned Bailey after the Sudden Silence (22:06).

The Seattle weekender came to an end with DDT, Tokyo Joshi Pro and DEFY all getting together for one big finale. The Moonlight Express were back together as a tag team after being opponents yesterday. Sadly for them their reunion was spoiled by Sinner & Saint. The DEFY team came out on top and think it won’t be the last time you’ll see them in DDT. Afterwards backstage MAO asked Mike Bailey when will he wrestle for DDT in Japan again because the last time he came back to the country it was for another company. Bailey doesn’t know but The Moonlight Express would like to team up in Japan one more time.

Easy come, easy go. Miyu Yamashita’s surprising reign as the DDT Universal Champion has already come to an end when her decision to compete in another 3 Way championship match this weekend blew up in her face. She was able to knock Nick Wayne out of the way with the Skull Kick but still had Gringo Loco to deal with. Loco gave her the Fire Thunder and pinned her with the Base Bomb to become the new Universal Champion! Loco said he is on top of the world and nobody can stop the wave he is riding on. Wayne hates that he lose but also called Yamashita the best joshi in the world and Loco the best luchador. He wants to come back to DDT and win the Universal Title. Yamashita was so shocked over the loss she didn’t give any post-match comments.

The teacher Konosuke Takeshita gave his student Yuni a big test today. Yuni had to fight him one on one to show how much he has grown since their last match together. Yuni gave it his best shot including doing a Dragonrana to Takeshita outside the ring. Takeshita ended up winning and told Yuni to go find a style of wrestling that only he can show to everyone else. When he finds it, the KO-D Openweight Title will be in his reach!

Shoko Nakajima put up a strong challenge for Marina Shafir on short notice but wasn’t able to win the DEFY Women’s Title from her. Shafir said Nakajima will never understand the sacrifices that were made for her to keep this title and she plans to retire undefeated as the champion. Nakajima calls Shafir a monster fighter and she hopes to get a rematch some day.

Miu Watanabe is happy she gets to leave Seattle with some happy memories. After being beaten by Zara Zakher yesterday, Watanabe was able to get a win today with Suzume on her side. Their opponents Mizuki & Wakana Uehara also had a fun time despite losing.

Match #4 was thrown out thanks to the lewd antics of Danshoku Dieno, Randy Myers and also Yoshihiko. Actually it wasn’t just them because Kohei Kinoshita joined in on their shenanigans too much to Daisuke Sasaki’s dismay. Sasaki wants to know why Kinoshita came all the way to Seattle to do even worse things than what he does in Japan? Sasaki will challenge them all to a 3-on-1 Handicap match if he has to get revenge that way!

At least Maki Itoh can say her weekend was all highs with no lows. She teamed up with Zakher and had their hands raised in victory. Zakher wants to continue the momentum when she travels to Japan next week. She plans to bring the Princess Of Princess Title back to America with her. Meanwhile Danika Della Rouge blamed Amira for losing the match and swears she will never team with her again.

It’s been around seven months since Shota went freelance and he admits he’s been struggling to break out. He lost to his friend Bryan Keith today after they weren’t on the same page as a team the day before. He hopes the ass kicking he took today will help motivate him from now on. Keith warned Shota not to go about making him his enemy. He also misses DDT and believes it is only a matter of time before he goes back there to hunt for gold.

Unusual trios were the name of the game for the opening match. Yuki Kamifuku didn’t know what to expect teaming up with Vert Vixen & Moka Miyamoto but they pulled out the win in the end. The other team however were in a bad mood for losing. Arisu Endo is frustrated she took the fall, Yuki Aino felt like she didn’t give it her all and Rika Tatsumi is mad her win rate in America is so bad!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW BRIGHT EYES” Results

November 10, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW BRIGHT EYES”, 09/11/2024
Washington Hall, Seattle, Washington, USA
405 Fans

1. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Rika Tatsumi & Amira when Suzume pinned Amira with the Ring A Bell (10:21).
2. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Wakana Uehara with the Famouser (7:19).
3. Rebel Kel defeated Moka Miyamoto with a Falcon Arrow (5:45).
4. Mizuki defeated Liiza Hall with the Diving Foot Stomp (11:07).
5. Yuki Aino & Zara Zakher defeated Miu Watanabe & Shoko Nakajima when Zakher pinned Watanabe with the Control Z (16:43).
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh (c) defeated Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews when Yamashita pinned Matthews with the Skull Kick (24:05).
*V1 for 121000000.

A packed weekend in Seattle began with Tokyo Joshi Pro running their own show with a little help from DEFY. The main event was a familiar scenario for 121000000. They have travelled to America with their newly won Princess Tag Team Titles and do not want a repeat of their last reign that ended in America on their first defence. The odds were better in their favour this time because the challengers Vert Vixen & Nicole Matthews were not a finely tuned tag team like The Magical Sugar Rabbits were. Even with out of the ring brawling and a few mishaps along the way, Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh stayed on the same page, headbutting each other to fire themselves up before beating their opponents.

The champions celebrated with Yamashita thanking the fans while Itoh asked them who is the cutest in the world? Yamashita then invited the entire locker room down to the ring to close out the show with one big group get together. She also announced TJPW’s next US appearance will be in April. TJPW later confirmed the next USA show is at Las Vegas on 18th April for The Collective during Wrestlemania Week.

Backstage Vixen & Matthews blamed each other for losing and argued over cheating (Matthews wanted to cheat more, Vixen prefers to fight clean). Itoh said it would have been traumatic for her if they lost the titles in America again but she won so she’s already forgotten about the last time it happened. Yamashita told her it was because they believed in each other. She also reminded her the goal for this reign is to defend the belts 10 times or else 121000000 will disband. Yamashita also said if she wins the DDT Universal Title at the DDT show tonight she wants to give Itoh a title shot.

Newly signed under the WWE ID initiative, Zara Zakher sure is looking like the belle of the ball right now. An end to a good week has gone even better after she scored a pinfall over Miu Watanabe before their Princess Of Princess Title match back in Japan next week. Shoko Nakajima tried to hold off Zakher as best as she could but Yuki Aino proved to be a good counter for her. Aino gave Watanabe a Running Bulldog while Zakher took out Nakajima with a Spinebuster. She then backflipped past Watanabe and gave her an RKO before pinning her with the Control Z. Watanabe is wondering if she became too overwhelmed by the Seattle fans or if she has become weak. She promised not to lose the title to Zakher on 16th November.

Most of the undercard pitted TJPW against North America. Mizuki beat Liiza Hall in a close fought battle. The Casadora into a Double Stomp left Hall as a sitting duck for the proper Diving Foot Stomp to finish her off. Mizuki likes Hall’s fighting style and gets a happy vibe from her. That’s partly because it was Hall’s first DEFY match in over a year.

Moka Miyamoto lost to Rebel Kel. As much as Miyamoto was excited to wrestle in Seattle, Kel was too full of adrenaline to be stopped by Miyamoto’s Karate skills. The size difference played a part too. Kel was too tall for Miyamoto to use the Rashomon on so Kel powered out of it and pinned Miyamoto with a Falcon Arrow.

The recent success of Yuki Kamifuku is being recognized worldwide because the fans chanted “Queen Of Asia” at her while she fought Wakana Uehara. After winning the match Kamifuku wrapped Uehara’s long hair around her hand and led her away backstage just to add insult to injury. Kamifuku said she is overwhelmed that the fans knew about her wrestling exploits in Southeast Asia and hopes today’s match will inspire Uehara to try doing something in America.

Daisy Monkey defeated Rika Tatsumi & Amira to open up the show. Amira could have pinned Suzume with a Fisherman Suplex but Arisu Endo broke the pin. Daisy Monkey then outmaneuvered their opponents, leading them into a Falling Facecrusher and Mt. Tsuruga double spot. Suzume then pinned Amira with the Ring A Bell. They were happy with the support they got from fans and want to come back.

Thought we were all clear from Shinya Aoki’s threats to fight Katsuhiko Nakajima somewhere down the line? Not so fast! Aoki held a short interview with Tokyo Sports today where he said his goal is to hold onto the KO-D Openweight Title long enough that he will still be the champion when he has a grappling match in ONE FC this December. Aoki cannot believe he got a fight in ONE scheduled before he got a booking in GLEAT. He then started rambling about Nakajima and asking why he hasn’t been in the news lately?

3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Yuni

Come on Tony, give Yuni a shot at the AEW International Title. Do it for the sickos.

The Moonlight Express will team up proper at the end of the DEFY weekend for a tag match against Sinner & Saint.

I don’t know what kind of person would ever think up a Miyu Yamashita Vs Gringo Loco match but that’s some good booking right there.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 22/11/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Final: X Vs X
2. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. International Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Shazza McKenzie

Big children rejoice for it’s the return of Hyper Misao to save the day! No better choice for her first match back from injury than to team up with Shoko Nakajima as Kyoraku Kyomei again. Rika Tatsumi will certainly welcome her back with a big hug that will suspiciously look a lot like a strangulation. Arisu Endo will probably stand to the side and give it a thumbs up.

Zara Zakher will be on the show.

DDT “GET ALIVE 2024”, 23/11/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Akito 15th Anniversary Debut Special Single Match: Isami Kodaka Vs Akito
2. DDT Extreme Title & Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Danshoku Dieno (c/c) Vs Yuni
3. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Yuya Koroku

BURNING have found themselves back in the front of the line for a KO-D Tag Team Titles shot. This time however Tetsuya Endo is teaming with Yuya Koroku instead of Yuki Iino. Koroku has a pinfall win over Shunma Katsumata and that interested MAO enough to accept his title challenge.

Everyone in the main event wants to get drunk tomorrow so DDT may as well make it part of the match.

Due to a strong request by Antonio Honda, he and Jun Akiyama will now face each other in a Tiger Cub Rope Death Match! They will be attached to each other by the wrist with a tiger rope and more importantly a tiger cub stuffed toy is hanging from the middle of the rope. It will be up to the wrestlers to protect the toy from their opponent or even use it as a weapon.

Recent shenanigans with the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title has led to Kazuki Hirata now defending the title against former champion Danshoku Dieno.

The Right To Challenge Shield holders going into tomorrow’s show are Shunma Katsumata (Blue) and Soma Takao (White).

The semi-main event is a preview for the next Princess Of Princess Title match as Miu Watanabe and Zara Zakher will be in opposite teams. Two new names from the North American scene will step foot into TJPW for the first time. Liiza Hall is from Canada and has nine years of experience. Rebel Kel has previously wrestled in Japan for Stardom near the end of the pre-Bushiroad era. Amira was on last December’s TJPW show with Prestige. She also teamed with Rika Tatsumi back then so they are already familiar with each other. But is that enough to take on Daisy Monkey?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN” Results

October 13, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 13/10/2024
Saitama Kasukabe Fureai Cube
218 Fans

1. Wakana Uehara & Shino Suzuki defeated Haru Kazashiro & Chika Nanase when Suzuki submitted Nanase with a Body Choke Sleeper Hold (10:12).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Raku and Uta Takami when Mizuki pinned Takami with a Roll Up (7:38).
3. Kaya Toribami defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Sento Choryu (8:36).
4. Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo defeated Miki Fortune & Kira Summer when Tatsumi pinned Summer with the Twist Of Fate (10:04).
5. Next Generation Tournament ’24 – Round 1: Toga defeated HIMAWARI with the Rock Bottom (10:19).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Mahiro Kiryu & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Punish (13:16).
7. Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku with the Tear Drop (14:32).

Autumn is the season for art in Japan so Pom Harajuku drew a portrait of Miu Watanabe for the main event. She then took out a blank canvas and asked Watanabe to draw a portait of her in return but it was just so she could roll her up from behind for a nearfall. Harajuku then hit Watanabe over the head with the canvas and used the frame to trap her and Suzume together. Later Suzume landed a Plancha onto Yuki Aino and Watanabe scored the three count on Harajuku with the Tear Drop. After the match Suzume admitted art was is a bit difficult for her.

A few days ago Tokyo Joshi Pro announced 121000000 will defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against Vert Vixen and Nicole Matthews in Seattle on 9th November. They used today’s match as a warmup to see just how sync they are at the moment. Itoh said she still has trauma from losing the Princess Tag Titles the first time around in Los Angeles so she won’t let her guard down. Yamashita told her the match will be in Seattle this time so she needn’t worry about the trauma anymore.

Kira Summer and her visiting sister Miki Fortune teamed together in TJPW for the first time. Together their team name is Chaos Hunt! However the closely knit duo lost to Rika Tatsumi & Arisu Endo when Endo threw away Fortune with the Waterwheel Drop leaving Tatsumi to pin Summer with the Twist Of Fate. Chaos Hunt were still happy with how the match went and think they showed the fans what their natural tag team chemistry is like. A reporter later asked them if they would like to have a singles match against each other. Fortune is up for it but Summer knows her sister would kill her and she’d rather stay in one piece.

The Next Generation Tournament began with a bit of an upset because one of last year’s finalists has already been eliminated! HIMAWARI won’t be repeating her success here after Toga beat her with the Rock Bottom. Toga said she felt the pressure of being in the tournament opening match especially one that fans were expecting to be good. HIMAWARI said she wasn’t taking the tournament lightly at all but she learned a harsh lesson that everyone else is growing just as much as she is. She will now face the winner of Shino Suzuki versus Kira Summer in the semi-final.

The match for Haruna Neko’s comeback on 27th October has been announced. She will team with Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu to take on Love Triangle.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’24” Results

October 6, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’24”, 06/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
611 Fans

1. Wakana Uehara & Haru Kazahiro defeated Toga & Uta Takami when Uehara submitted Takami with the Banana Pillow (9:43).
2. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Kakeru Sekiguchi, Kira Summer & Chika Nanase when Aino pinned Nanase with the Venus DDT (10:02).
3. Suzume & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Moka Miyamoto & Kaya Toribami when Hasegawa pinned Toribami with the Diving Double Knee Attack (10:08).
4. Mizuki & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Andreza Giant Panda & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (7:53).
5. Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi defeated Yuna Manase & HIMAWARI when Tatsumi pinned HIMAWARI with an Inside Cradle (10:23).
6. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Kuroshio TOKYO Japan with an Ikemen Clutch Counter (5:58).
7. Ryo Mizunami defeated Arisu Endo with the HOT LIMIT (10:20).
8. Special Tag Match: Meiko Satomura & Shoko Nakajima defeated Miu Watanabe & Miyu Yamashita when Satomura pinned Yamashita with the Death Valley Bomb (18:40).

A grudge from seven years ago has been rekindled. Meiko Satomura first entered Tokyo Joshi Pro in 2017 to have a match against Miyu Yamashita and didn’t see the hype about her at all. She defeated her in an overwhelming fashion and that result has stuck with Yamashita all this time. So when news came out that Satomura will retire from wrestling next year, Yamashita quickly convinced TJPW to bring Satomura back so she can get a crack at revenge. It was decided that Yamashita will team with Miu Watanabe, bringing Momoiro Sparkling back together. It would also give Satomura a chance to wrestle the new top star of the promotion. Meanwhile Satomura was paired with Shoko Nakajima, partly because both of them are from Niigata so they at least had one reason to get along.

Satomura was the big target for Momoiro Sparkling. Yamashita in particular threw everything she had at her. She escaped the Death Valley Bomb to hit the Skull Kick but Satomura kicked out of it. She then went for the Crash Rabbit Heat but Satomura blocked it and returned fire with a Back Drop. Yamashita had the Scorpio Rising scouted and looked to have turned the tables again but Nakajima cut her momentum off before wiping out Watanabe with a Topé con Hilo. From there Satomura took over, landing two Death Valley Bombs on Yamashita. She then used the Scorpio Rising but didn’t hit the move right so she went back to using one more Death Valley Bomb to pin Yamashita for the three count.

After the match Yamashita stared and Satomura and wanted to strike her. Satomura stopped Yamashita and ordered her to stand back in her corner with Watanabe. She then got on the microphone and said even though TJPW’s style is different from other promotions, once you step inside the ring everyone becomes your enemy! Satomura will be retiring in six months time and before that happens she is planning to come back to TJPW for another match. So if there is anyone who in TJPW who wants to fight her again she will be waiting for them! Backstage Yamashita wasted little time in telling reporters she wants a singles match against Satomura because she cannot let her retire without finally being able to kick her down. Watanabe and Nakajima also showed interest in wanting to fight Satomura more after they heard her post-match speech.

Arisu Endo was also given a big wall to climb for her match. Both she and Ryo Mizunami were coming off of title match defeats at “WRESTLE PRINCESS V” so they were hungry for a bounce back victory. Endo used a Sleeper Hold to take Mizunami down to the mat to move into the Camel Clutch. But Mizunami was too stubborn to stay down from Endo’s further attacks and escaped from the Ju no Okite. She turned Endo inside out with a Lariat and then won the match with the HOT LIMIT. She said Endo has a long way to go but what’s charming about her is her incredible originality. She can tell Endo is starting to enjoy wrestling and feel fulfilled by it. She could become a fearsome wrestler in two or three years time. Endo thinks she gained more than she lost from this match. Mizunami’s power and passion motivates her to take another step forward.

With the Asian Double Crown match postponed until Xia Zhao can sort out her visa problem, Yuki Kamifuku was given a mystery opponent instead. The dreaded X turned out to be Kuroshio TOKYO Japan, full blown entrance and all! Kamifuku was confused by Kuroshio’s delayed entrance especially when the song ended and he left the room, only to return when the song restarted. When he was finally ready to start the match he told Kamifuku he heard she would like to have a match with him some day. So when he found out she needed an opponent on short notice, he was happy to answer the call. Kamifuku said that is true but she doesn’t want to do the match today. She then called him an idiot for not understanding how women feel. Kuroshio took offence and attacked her. He then brought her out to the front row just so he could attack her in front of one of her biggest fans. Back in the ring Kamifuku fought back and hit the Famouser for a nearfall. Kuroshio made a comeback but his Ikemen Clutch finisher was countered out of nowhere, resulting in Kamifuku pulling off the upset victory. She later praised Kuroshio for being the surprise opponent. She appreciated that he came dressed like someone from TJPW would and thinks they could even team together next time. Kuroshio though wanted to make it clear this appearance wasn’t meant to be a polite gesture. He really wanted to win and then challenge Kamifuku for her two championships.

Can you believe today was the very first time Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi teamed up together for a regular tag match? Maybe it’s for a good reason because Tatsumi was really enthusiastic for Itoh’s singing entrance. It was enough to annoy Itoh and throw off their team dynamic before the match even began. Yuna Manase & HIMAWARI were a little off-kilter too by they had the teamwork to make up for it. As the match went on Itoh dragged HIMAWARI out of the ring and tied her hair up against the bleacher handrail by the entrance. While Manase went over to free her, Itoh & Tatsumi started in-fighting again and even attacked each other. Things calmed down between them until Itoh missed a Headbutt aimed for HIMAWARI that hit Tatsumi instead. HIMAWARI then tricked Tatsumi into choking Itoh in the corner. Sensing victory, HIMAWARI tried to put Tatsumi in a Half Crab Hold but it was countered into an Inside Cradle for the three count. Tatsumi shook Itoh’s hand after the match but Itoh responded by giving her the middle finger.

Trust the bunny rabbit to bring a weapon for a fight against a giant panda. Mizuki carried a Pico Pico Hammer to the ring, jumped off the top rope and landed a direct hit right onto Andreza Giant Panda’s noggin. Mahiro Kiryu was horrified by her partner’s actions and forced Mizuki to apologise with her. Andreza recovered and knocked back Kiryu with a Spinning Back Fist. Shino Suzuki tagged in to do the heavy lifting while Andreza recovered out of the ring. He returned but was cut off by Kiryu demanded that he too should apologise to everyone. Andreza took a moment to consider before kneeling down on the canvas to apologise dogeza style. Then he got back up and immediately Headbutted Kiryu. Andreza went for another Headbutt that missed Mizuki and hit Suzuki instead. Mizuki brought out a rope and ran circles around Andreza to make him trip over. She then hit a Diving Foot Stomp and had Kiryu keep the panda down so she could pin Suzuki with the Cutie Special. Backstage Andreza apologised to Suzuki via his handler.

With Endo busy being a singles wrestler today, Suzume went to team with Yoshiko Hasegawa. The pairing worked out well and the two of them defeated Moka Miyamoto & Kaya Toribami. Miyamoto did her part in getting rid of Suzume but Toribami found herself going back and forth against Hasegawa. It ended in Hasegawa’s favour with her hitting the Diving Double Knee Attack for the win.

Halloween is this month so the Love Triangle were in a trick or treat mood. Yuki Aino brought out a brand new red and pink costume for the match while Pom Harajuku wore a paper mask of Mahiro Kiryu’s face to make fun of Kakeru Sekiguchi. She even tried to copy Kiryu’s apology as a joke but Sekiguchi told her to do it properly. Aino almost pinned Chika Nanase with a Senton but Kira Summer broke the pin. Sekiguchi tried to follow up but was taken out by the teamwork of Raku & Harajuku. Aino was then clear to beat Nanase with the Venus DDT.

The opening match was a preview for the Next Generation Tournament beginning later this month with four of the eight participants facing off in a tag bout. Toga & Uta Takami were both fired up to fight last year’s winner Wakana Uehara. However Haru Kazahiro took out Toga with a Low Cross Body and while Takami put up a passionate fight, Uehara made her tap out to the Banana Pillow.

At the start of the show Haruna Neko announced she is finally cleared to start wrestling again and her comeback match will take place on 27th October. She had been out of action since last September when she tore both her ACL and her meniscus. During her time off to recover she was able to be an advertised second at ringside for some of TJPW’s major shows.

Two new trainees who were introduced to the audience. Kana is a 19 year old from Kanagawa who is also a trainee for The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling). Her trainee role was already revealed by The Up Up Girls back in July but today is the first time TJPW is acknowledging her. The other trainee is Konatsu, a 23 year old from Shizuoka. She was inspired by Suzume to become a pro wrestler. TJPW also announced they will be holding more auditions for new trainees throughout the rest of the month.

Oishi’s Last Day In DDT, Satomura In TJPW One More Time, Fujia Vs Takanashi Rematch

September 25, 2024

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE TOUR 2024 AUTUMN”, 28/09/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Haru Kazashiro Vs Chika Nanase
2. Kaya Toribami Vs Wakana Uehara
3. Mizuki & Uta Takami Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Toga
4. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Kira Summer
5. Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Shino Suzuki Vs Suzume, Arisu Endo & Moka Miyamoto
6. Miu Watanabe, Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh Vs Max The Impaler, Shoko Nakajima & HIMAWARI

A few people are missing from the show for different reasons. Both Raku and Pom Harajuku are missing the show because they will be wrestling in Thailand for SETUP that same day. Yoshiko Hasegawa won’t be there because of a scheduling conflict. Runa Okubo is out of action with an injury she suffered during her match at “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”.

DDT “DRAMATIC INFINITY 2024 ~ 3 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 29/09/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Tag Match: Shinya Aoki & HARASHIMA Vs Jun Akiyama & Keigo Nakamura
2. Tetsuya Endo, Soma Takao & Yuya Koroku Vs Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuki Ishida
3. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Antonio Honda, To-y & Ilusion
4. Special Single Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Makoto Oishi
5. DDT Extreme Title – IPPON Lighttube Tag Team Death Match: Shunma Katsumata (c) & Kazuma Sumi Vs Akito & Yuni
6. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs Yukio Naya
7. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, MAO & Kaisei Takeshi Vs Chris Brookes, Takeshi Masada & Masahiro Takanashi

To-y and Yuki Ishida swap places in Match #2 and Match #3 for some reason.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN SHINJUKU”, 03/10/2024
Shinjuku FACE

1. Jun Akiyama, Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi Vs Toru Owashi, Masahiro Takanashi & Ilusion
2. Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino Vs Keigo Nakamura & To-y
3. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul (c) Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada
4. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Makoto Oishi’s Last DDT Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Makoto Oishi & Danshoku Dieno

On the day that Makoto Oishi’s contract ends with DDT he gets to challenge for the KO-D Tag Team Titles with Danshoku Dieno. The two of them have never held the titles together and don’t even know what will happen next if they beat ShunMao. It won’t be the last time we will ever see Oishi in DDT but whenever he does show up again it will be as a freelancer. The match means a lot to MAO & Shunma Katsumata too because Oishi has been a mentor to them for their entire careers.

Ilusion has gotten SCHADENFREUDE International a shot at the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles but he isn’t allowed to be on the challenger team. DAMNATION T.A don’t want to defend the titles against him but have no problem putting the belts on the line against the rest of SCHADENFREUDE.

Out of all the possible DDT Universal Title challengers stepping forward, To-y is one of the more unlikely to beat Yuki Iino. But he is looking for ways to get a title shot. He couldn’t go through with cashing in his Right To Challenge Shield because Iino physically stopped him at every opportunity. Now To-y no longer has the Shield but is taking the chance of facing Iino directly in a tag match. This is all if Iino is still the champion after his defence with Yukio Naya of course.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’24”, 06/10/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Wakana Uehara & Haru Kazahiro Vs Toga & Uta Takami
2. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Kakeru Sekiguchi, Kira Summer & Chika Nanase
3. Suzume & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Moka Miyamoto & Kaya Toribami
4. Mizuki & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Andreza Giant Panda & Shino Suzuki
5. Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuna Manase & HIMAWARI
6. Ryo Mizunami Vs Arisu Endo
7. Queen Of Asia Title & VPW Women’s Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c/c) Vs Xia Zhao
8. Miu Watanabe & Miyu Yamashita Vs Meiko Satomura & Shoko Nakajima

When news came out about Meiko Satomura’s plan to retire from pro wrestling next year, Miyu Yamashita immediately went to Tetsuya Koda asking him to bring Satomura back to Tokyo Joshi Pro for one more match. Yamashita never got along with Satomura in their interactions together back in 2017 because Satomura wasn’t impressed with her as a wrestler. So now here we are seven years later and this might be Yamashita’s final chance to measure herself up against the legend. Miu Watanabe and Shoko Nakajima are also getting in on the action to get their one and only match with Satomura.

Xia Zhao has a pinfall victory over Yuki Kamifuku so she next wants to take the Asian Double Crown from her. Yuki Kamifuku is willing to put both the Queen Of Asia Title & VPW Women’s Title because gambling big in this situation works out for her no matter the result. She either rips off the bandage by losing both belts at the same time or looks cool for defending two championships at once.

Both Ryo Mizunami and Arisu Endo are coming off of title losses at “WRESTLE PRINCESS V”. Where they go from here might depend on the result of this match.

The idea of putting Maki Itoh & Rika Tatsumi together as a team sounds unhinged. Yuna Manase can deal with it but HIMAWARI might find herself in trouble should she end up in a 2-on-1 situation.

It will be up to Shino Suzuki to guide Andreza Giant Panda safely down to the ring. Mizuki is going to have so much fun trying to Double Stomp him that Mahiro Kiryu will have to apologise on her behalf!

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN ASAKUSA”, 09/10/2024
Tokyo Asakusa Hanayashi Theater

1. Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Moka Miyamoto Vs Haru Kazashiro
2. Special Tag Match: HARASHIMA & Keigo Nakamura Vs Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dieno & Yoshihiko Vs Shunma Katsumata, Soma Takao & Kazuki Hirata
4. The 37KAMIINA Vs BURNING!: Yuki Ueno, MAO & To-y Vs Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku

A few guests are coming in for DDT’s return to Asakusa. Ryota Nakatsu is coming over and wants to be in the ring with HARASHIMA. Also TJPW will be presenting a match between Moka Miyamoto and Haru Kazashiro.

BASARA “BASARA 258 ~SOUEN~”, 11/10/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) Vs Masahiro Takanashi

The unexpected next challenger for the Union MAX Title is Masahiro Takanashi! He held the title once before during 2019 and 2020. His final successful defence was even against the current champion Minoru Fujita. That result is something Fujita wants to avenge so he is ready to face Takanashi in a rematch over four years in the making.
