The latest Tokyo Joshi Pro PPV was recorded sometime before Yuka Sakazaki’s graduation and took place at the Hakkeijima Sea Paradise in Yokohama. Everyone arrived a the aquarium looking forward to a fun day that started out with a BBQ meal. Sayuri Namba then announced to everyone there were six stuffed toys of marine animals available for them to take. However there were twelve women in the group. It was suggested they play games of Rock-Paper-Scissors to determine who should get the prizes. Rika Tatsumi had a better idea. They are all pro wrestlers so they should split into two teams and fight for the toys!

The group split into two sides, one captained by Sakazaki and the other led by Yuki Arai. They agreed to do three tag team matches held in different areas of the aquarium and whichever side got the most wins would get the stuffed toys.

First up was Shoko Nakajima & HIMAWARI against Miu Watanabe & Arisu Endo. They had their match in front of a statue of a beluga whale on one side and a massive fish tank on the other. There was also a long railing along the fish tank that gave Nakajima and Endo the same idea. They both decided to do a ropewalk across the railing from opposite sides, meeting each other in the middle. Back on the ground Watanabe used the large empty space in the middle of the room to give HIMAWARI a Giant Swing. She then made her give up to the Canadian Backbreaker while Endo held Nakajima in the Camel Clutch.

Everyone move over to the next section for the second match. Here it was Rika Tatsumi & Suzume taking on team captain Arai & Raku. However Raku’s Oyasumi Express invited everyone else on Team Arai to join in on the fun and pile onto the opponents. Arai & Raku both applied Headlocks but seemed to get distracted by the sights of aqua life surrounding them. Tatsumi took advantage and put Raku in a Figure 4 Leg Lock. Arai broke it up by Body Slamming Suzume on top of her. Raku tried to finish things off by putting Tatsumi in the Front Neck Lock but Tatsumi pressed down Raku’s shoulders on the floor and pinned her for a three count.

With the scores at 1-1 it came down to the third match to decide who gets the prize. For this match the teams were allowed to bring their own items to use as weapons. Nao Kakuta & Hyper Misao showed up to the match wearing crab and shark outfits. It was Misao’s idea because she then asked is anyone allowed to attack sea creatures here? Sakazaki immediately said she can and attacked Misao to start the match. Misao fought back by biting Sakazaki’s arm. Sakazaki would then grab Kakuta and bite her arm. The Magical Sugar Rabbits then chased after their opponents around the aquarium. Tetsuya Koda ended up getting caught in the chaos by accidentally getting sprayed in the face by Misao and then accidentally hit over the head with a mallet by Mizuki. After getting attacked by both teams, Koda called off the match declaring no winner.

The final score stayed at 1-1 a tiebreaker was needed. Everyone met up at the Aqua Stadium where there is a beluga whale tank in the center. A 6-Vs-6 battle was the finale with all the toys on the line. Everyone brawled on the stage with some of them trying to push each other into the water. The fighting went down next to the water tank where a Headscissors Chain formed on the floor while a lone penguin waddled past everybody. Then there was interference from the two beluga whales inside the tank with the two spraying loads of water onto everyone outside the tank. The whales stuck around, causing everyone to pause their fight so they could pet them on their heads. With that done the fighting restarted and spread everywhere from Watanabe swinging Mizuki’s mallet up in the stands to Raku using her pillow to send HIMAWARI to sleep. The end came down to Sakazaki escaping from Endo’s Camel Clutch and pinning her with the Rolling Elbow for the big victory.

The competition was finally over with Team Sakazaki becoming the winners. It was also the last time Yuka Sakazaki done a Rojo Pro Wrestling match as part of TJPW. She and the rest of her team being rewarded with the stuffed toys. The PPV then ended with the entire group getting together for a posed photograph with the beluga whales in the background.

6. Special Match: Yuka Sakazaki Vs Mizuki ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).

Today Yuka Sakazaki said goodbye to Tokyo Joshi Pro, ending her decade long attachment to the promotion that grew up with her. Her debut match was held inside Kitazawa Town Hall so it was only fitting that her graduation from TJPW took place there as well. She had a busy day that began with a unique tag team match. Rika Tatsumi teamed up with Sakazaki against male wrestlers Antonio Honda and Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi. All four have history together as part of a music group called DPG (Dramatic Perfect Group) that opened up the doors for both Sakazaki and Tatsumi to join TJPW and become pro wrestlers.

Honda got on the microphone before the match began and introduced everyone to the final showdown of DPG. It was going to be a Japanese I Quit Match where the match would only end when a wrestler gives up while speaking Japanese. Honda kept teasing he would give up when he was put in a hold only to change the subject and say something else. Hiroshi did the same but swerved into singing. Sakazaki ended up putting Honda in a Heel Hold while Tatsumi applied the Figure 4 Leg Lock to Hiroshi. Honda kept yelling at Hiroshi over and over not to give up. Honda himself then gave up. After the match Sakazaki said it is thanks to Honda and Hiroshi that she and Tatsumi were able to become who they are today. Tatsumi said she is glad she became a pro wrestler. Honda and Hiroshi agreed because pro wrestling is the best!

Sakazaki’s second match of the show was her graduation match in the main event. It was a 3 Way Match between the three longest serving members of TJPW: Sakazaki, Miyu Yamashita and Shoko Nakajima. It could be the last time Sakazaki fought both Yamashita and Nakajima so there was plenty of time shared in the ring against each of them. Yamashita rolled out of the way from the Magical Girl Chicken Dude but immediately became the target of Nakajima’s Diving Senton. Yamashita was a non-factor from that point on. Sakazaki and Nakajima fought their hearts out against each other until they were spent. The match ended with a hug between the two, Sakazaki saying “Thank you” and then knocking out Nakajima with an Elbow Strike. She hugged her again while pinning her for the three count.

After the match Sakazaki said when she was putting her final TJPW match together her first thought was to do a singles bout with Nakajima. But she wanted Yamashita to be part of it too so it became a 3 Way instead. Nakajima said she never wanted to lose to Sakazaki which is why she worked so hard. Sakazaki is leaving but Nakajima still lost to her today so now she gets to keep that motivation to always become a better wrestler. She also warned Sakazaki not to catch a cold in America. Yamashita described Sakazaki like an older sister or mother figure to her. She would always get mad when Yamashita does badly but she was also always there when Yamashita got sad or depressed. They always feel linked together so even if Yamashita leaves her alone from now on she still feels like she can help her. If things ever get tough for Sakazaki, Yamashita can always fly over to support her.

Sakazaki then invited one more special person to join her in the ring. Mizuki has been holding in her emotions for as long as she could but still is not happy to see Sakazaki leave TJPW. She wants the two of them to continue teaming together and being in the same ring. Sakazaki said the schedule meant they couldn’t have one more match against each other but they could do it today even if it was just for one minute. Tetsuya Koda then announced over the speakers they have enough time for a three minute match!

The two shook hands and did everything they could against each other within three minutes. Mizuki hit the Diving Foot Stomp while Sakazaki gave her the Magical Merry-Go-Round off of the top rope. They spent the final seconds of their short match hitting each other with Elbow Strikes until Mizuki landed the Whirling Candy and went for the pin. She was at a 2 count when the bell rang, ending the match in a draw. Yamashita, Nakajima and Tatsumi all got in the ring to join the hug Sakazaki and Mizuki were giving each other.

The graduation ceremony began and Sakazaki received gifts from the entire TJPW roster. Everyone then gathered together for a final group photo with her. Sakazaki told them today made her realize how lucky she is to come from TJPW. She hopes everyone will continue to support her and in return wants everyone to continue supporting TJPW for many years to come. She shook hands and hugged every member of the roster one by one as they left the ring until she was the last one left. Also after the show Sakazaki stood at the exit and high fived everyone in the audience as they left the venue.

Backstage Sakazaki had a few more comments when interviewed by the wrestling media. She wanted to thank Sanshiro Takagi for accepting her into TJPW. As already mentioned, she was originally just going to do a match with Nakajima but wanted to include Yamashita. She also couldn’t leave Mizuki out of her final match no matter how short it was. She is proud of everyone in TJPW and thinks each woman is a treasue who should continue to live their lives believing in themselves. The only regret she had during the road to graduation was never getting to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against Mickey Mouse at DisneyLand. But as long as she is a wrestler that dream may still someday come true.

Two new matches were revealed for the Ittenyon show at Korakuen Hall on 4th January. Max The Impaler’s opponent for the International Princess Title match was revealed to be Yuki Arai! This match is happening exactly one year after Max pinned Arai to win the Princess Tag Titles from her. Now one year later and Arai has the chance to get revenge by taking the IP Title away from Max.

The other match is Wakana Uehara’s reward for winning the Next Generation Tournament. She is going one on one against Aja Kong! It sounds like a daunting task but since the match is happening on the anniversary of Uehara’s debut, she wants to show everything she’s learned over the last year to Kong in the ring. The two already have a history together because Kong was a guest trainer on the Yume Pro Wrestling series that set up Uehara’s entry into wrestling and TJPW.

On this day ten years ago Tokyo Joshi Pro held their “Flag Raising” launch show at Kitazawa Town Hall. Today the promotion was in Korakuen Hall to celebrate the 10th anniversary of that event. The headline bout was a celebration of TJPW’s current leaders and the next class that’s been chasing after them. It was a Best 2-Out-Of-3 Falls 10-Woman Tag Match with the Senior class (who all held the Princess Of Princess Title at some point) on one side against the Junior class on the other. Each participant got a moment in the spotlight by getting to do their ring entrances by themselves.

The first fall was an upset with the junior team getting one over on the seniors. Rika Tatsumi got jealous of seeing Mizuki doing teamwork with Yuka Sakazaki instead of herself. She purposely got in the way of their moves so Mizuki could do double team stuff with her instead. Shoko Nakajima took centre stage and targeted Arisu Endo but missed a 619 and was shockingly pinned by Endo with a School Boy! The crowd reacted loudly to the unexpected result while the rest of the Juniors piled on Endo to congratulate her.

The second fall had Daisy Monkey fight tooth and nail against The Magical Sugar Rabbits while Tatsumi fought Miu Watanabe in a Daydream showdown. It came down to Moka Miyamoto doing her best against Sakazaki. She gave her the Korokan but missed a Falling Chop onto the canvas. Sakazaki took advantage and pinned Miyamoto with the Magical Merry-Go-Round to even the score.

The third and final fall had both teams go all out. Yuki Arai tried to finish off Nakajima with the Rookie Award but Sakazaki cut her off and together The Miraclians gave her a Double 619. The fall was decided in the battle between Miyu Yamashita and Miu Watanabe. Yamashita was about to finish her off when Suzume rained down with the Mikazuki Meteor Shower. Nakajima got rid of her with a Topé Suicida and MagiRabi did more damage to the Juniors by doing the Toy Story 4 dives onto everyone. Watanabe kept fighting and hit Yamashita with one Double Sledgehammer Strike after another. But one too many sent Yamashita into the ropes and she rebounded with the Skull Kick to knock Watanabe down and out for the winning pinfall.

The winning team celebrated after the match. Nakajima said this might be the last time all five of them will be together but it was the best. Tatsumi told her not to say it’s the end. She’s happy she got to team up against some truly amazing people to celebrate TJPW’s 10th Anniversary. Mizuki said she is glad to have met everyone and thanked Sakazaki most of all for being here. Yamashita then invited the entire roster into the ring to join them. She said everyone who came here today loves TJPW and in its 11th year there will be more debuts and more excitement for the fans. Sakazaki then thanked the fans for supporting TJPW and the entire group closed out the show together.

Free WiFi had to defend the Princess Tag Team Titles against an unstoppable monster. And also Max The Impaler. A game of chase broke out early in the match with Pom Harajuku trying to outrun the champions. Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta caught up and cut her off from both sides before taking her back down to the ring. Max evened the odds by throwing Harajuku onto Free WiFi. Harajuku then returned the favour by doing a Spinning Headscissors on her own partner to send Max slamming into Kakuta with a Cannonball onto the turnbuckle. But Pompaler missed the Wasteland War Justice, opening up a counter attack by the champs. It ended with Kakuta pinning Harajuku with the Shiden Kai for a successful title defence. Both members of Free WiFi praised each other for getting themselves through the match against such a scary opponent. They meant Max that time, not Pom. Next they want to promote themselves in America and would like to do a title defence over there if they can.

The reign of the new Queen Of Asia Champion is off to a good start. Yuki Kamifuku put the title on the line against Viva Van after taking a liking to her when they recently teamed together. While the two get along over how good looking they are, the focus soon turned to fighting as both had their eyes on the championship. Kamifuku pulled off a Superplex and applied the Manjigatame but Van powered out of it and slammed her into the turnbuckle. Kamifuku recovered though and landed the Famouser to remain champion. Van was impressed and said she couldn’t have asked for a better match to have for her first time in Korakuen Hall. Kamifuku said if there is ever an Asian 6-Woman Tag Team Title she would like to join forces with Van and one other person Charlie’s Angels style to fight for it. As for the Queen Of Asia Title, she wants to defend it in places like Thailand and the Phillipines.

The winner of the Next Generation Tournament is Wakana Uehara! She defeated HIMAWARI in dramatic fashion to win the rookie playoff. The match was built around HIMAWARI’s used of the Half Crab against Uehara’s Sleeper Hold. There were times when both women had to fight long and hard to reach for rope breaks. Uehara won out in the end when she grabbed the arm HIMAWARI reached out with and pulled it back to apply more pressure to the Sleeper Hold. It was too tight for HIMAWARI to escape from and she had to tap out. Uehara said the winner’s medal she received is now her precious treasure because this was her first tournament. She next wants to have a singles match with Shoko Nakajima because she admires her the most. HIMAWARI was upset over losing, feeling she didn’t try hard enough. She promised to do her best and avenge this loss.

TJPW decided to do their own version of a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match. Hyper Misao, Mahiro Kiryu, Yuki Aino and Raku all had to stand in opposite ends of the venue and after a countdown they ran down to the ring. Inside the ring were four mystery boxes, each one containing an item related to one of the wrestlers. Whichever item the wrestler got, they were allowed to use it as a weapon. However they were barred from using the other weapons even though they were items that originally belonged to them. Kiryu pulled out a pillow, Misao pulled out a plastic fan with Raku’s face on it, Aino pulled out Misao’s spray can and Raku had a paper bag with a box of yokan inside. The end result was chaos after Yukinori Matsui got blinded with the spray. He then landed on the pillow and fell asleep. Raku fed Matsui the yokan to wake him up and he was all fired up to do his job! Aino won the match for her team by pinning Kiryu with the Venus DDT.

Kaya Toribami and Juria Nagano led teams of the rest of the 2023 class in the opening bout. Toga & Runa Okubo both brought power to the match with Elbow Strikes and Shoulder Blocks respectively. Shino Suzuki tried to break things up but was taken out for her troubles. Haru Kazashiro went to the well once too often with her Low Altitude Cross Body and took Toga’s big Elbow Strike to the head. Toga then dropped her with the Rock Bottom for the win.

There were newsworthy announcements spread across the show. One was the announcement that Maki Itoh will face Rina Yamashita at the Ittenyon Korakuen show on 4th January. They have fought each other before in America for GCW and this will be the first time the match takes place in Japan.

The next TJPW PPV broadcasting on Wrestle Universe will be released on 10th December. It is the first ever Aquarium Pro Wrestling match! The event was taped at Hakkeijima Sea Paradise in Yokohama.

TJPW will be joining DDT at The Collective in Philadelphia next year for Wrestlemania Week! “TJPW LIVE IN PHILLY” takes place at Penns Landing Caterers Auditorium on 5th April, 2024.

A press conference was held today for the two title matches taking place tomorrow. There was a contract signing for the Princess Tag Team Titles but Max The Impaler did not show up on time. Free WiFi and Pom Harajuku went ahead with signing the contract and giving their opinions about the match. Harajuku said this is her second time challenging for the title and she wanted to be stronger this time. She came up with an idea to buy an expensive pair of high heeled shoes to make her taller and feel bigger. At this point Max arrived at the building and stormed into the room looking to fight Nao Kakuta. Max then smeared ink onto the contract with their thumb (that counts as a signature) and left with Harajuku. Hikari Noa talked about her idea of taming Max the same way she tames her big pet dog at home. Kakuta thinks they shouldn’t leave their guard down against Harajuku so their plan should be to keep Pompaler apart from each other. Free WiFi are feeling the pressure of being the defending champions at the 10th Anniversary show. Meanwhile Pompaler went to the Kanda Myojin Shrine to get their fortune told. The fortune they got was a great one, predicting they will win easily tomorrow.

Yuki Kamifuku and Viva Van were also at the press conference to talk about the Queen Of Asia Title Match. Van spoke about being a Vietnamese-American wrestler coming to Japan to make history. While she is proud to be a part of Tokyo Joshi Pro’s 10th Anniversary show and got along with Kamifuku when they teamed together last weekend, she is also a belt collector and here to win. Kamifuku talked about wrestling in other Asian countries this year. She is steadily becoming fulfilled about what she wants to do as a wrestler. Her goal now is defending the Queen Of Asia Title as a proper champion in order to raise its value while spreading the word of TJPW across the continent. She thinks Van is gorgeous and is looking forward to the match because it will be between two beautiful Asian women. She is worried about damaging her nails though.

The 10-Woman Tag main event is Best 2-Out-3 Falls with a 60 minute time limit.

Seeing ROMANCE DAWN win the tag titles made Akito jealous because he is currently not in a unit or teaming with a close friend. That’s why he chose Sugiura to be his partner for the title match. If they become champions then Akito wants to do a tag title defence in a similar style to a DDT Extreme Title defence.

5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Isami Kodaka (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura

One by one Isami Kodaka is vanquishing the Ganbare☆Pro roster as they take turns trying to take the Spirit Of Ganbare Title from him. Shuichiro Katsumura is next and wants the title match to take place in Korakuen Hall at the end of the year. Kodaka likes the idea because if he wins then that means GanPro has to keep booking him next year. Katsumura is currently one half of the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Champions so he is also fighting to become a double GanPro champion.

The one sided feud between Ken Ohka and Kuma Arashi with bigger stakes on the line. Arashi is getting bored of beating Ohka over and over. But he will do it one more time on the condition that when he wins he gets title shots for both the SOG Title and SOG Tag Titles.

We have more examples of the Young Communication generation interacting with each other when ROMANCE DAWN goes against Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie.

Earlier this year at “WRESTLE PRINCESS IV” there was a Ganbare☆Joshi Vs TJPW tag match that ended with Arisu Endo beating Yoshiko Hasegawa by submission. A singles rematch between the two is giving Hasegawa a chance to avenge that loss in her own promotion.

An inter-promotional 10-Man Tag Match sees Yumehito Imanari leading a GanPro team against a group of wrestlers from GLEAT. The GLEAT side has not decided on who they are sending yet but Imanari demanded that Kaz Hayashi be one of them. Also Takuya Wada has shown interest in being on the GanPro team because he has no SOG Tag Titles defence scheduled for the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO WILL IMPRESS YOU ’23”, 23/11/2023
Kanagawa Tsurumi Fruit & Vegetable Market
210 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Shoko Nakajima defeated Pom Harajuku with the Northern Lights Suplex (9:17).
2. Shin Numabukuro Ghost Story Death Match: Yumehito Imanari defeated Super Sasadango Machine, Antonio Honda and Amon Tsurumi when Imanari knocked out Tsurumi with the It’s You (9:22).
3. Rika Tatsumi defeated Demonio with the Hip Attack (17:00).
4. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita, Hikari Noa & Yuki Aino when Sakazaki pinned Aino with the Burning Magical Merry-Go-Round (16:34).

Tokyo Joshi Pro celebrated Labor Thanksgiving Day with a special one-off show that was half a tribute to their earlier years and half an excuse for the women to go absolutely bonkers. There were familiar faces from TJPW’s past present in the venue. The main event however was not built around nostalgia. Instead it looked like a blatant attempt by the craziest women on the roster to burn the entire place down! When Hikari Noa was one of the quieter wrestlers in the match that’s saying something.

Miyu Yamashita wore her old gear and danced to her previous entrance song “Genghis Khan” by Berryz Kobo. Then in the main event she ended up getting trapped in a cage and surrounded with fireworks. Everyone else happily set off the fireworks while Yamashita was at her most helpless. Then Mizuki did a dive from the top of the tour bus onto everyone below. There was more pyro fun when Hyper Misao armed herself with a mallet and helmet that both set off fireworks. Yuki Aino grabbed some sparklers until Yuka Sakazaki decided to set the back of Aino’s outfit on fire and then spin her in circles with the Magical Merry-Go-Round, all while the pyro was still going off.

Don’t know if it was Uno, Dos or another Demonio entirely. The poor demon was terrorized by Rika Tatsumi in her latest fight against the ungodly beings that show up whenever TJPW is in Tsurumi. This time Tatsumi dragged Demonio away from the venue to the streets where the fought along a pedestrian crossing. Tatsumi also took the time to get some fast food to eat while she was beating up Demonio. Back in the venue Tatsumi found a forklift and wanted to use it. She couldn’t get it to work though and Demonio recovered enough to attack her. Antonio Honda came to Tatsumi’s aid and the two of them hit a Double Bionic Elbow. Tatsumi then finished off Demonio with a Sliding Hip Attack.

Honda also took part in a 3 Way Match with Yumehito Imanari and Super Sasadango Machine. The match was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Amon Tsurumi. He was here to transform the bout into a Ghost Story Death Match! He told his scary story and at the climax caused people to faint one by one by pointing at them and shouting “It’s you!” Imanari resisted though and gave Tsurumi a taste of his own medicine by doing it to him! Tsurumi collapsed and Imanari did his own Atsushi Onita impersonation while “Wild Thing” played. That means Imanari was the winner.

Shoko Nakajima noticed a trail of kaiju toys were laid out by the entrance way. She couldn’t help but pick them up and follow the trail until it led her towards a parked car in the venue. She opened the door and out popped Pom Harajuku with a surprise attack! Nakajima regained ground in the ring by attacking Harajuku with one of the kaiju toys. She ended up winning with the Northern Lights Suplex.

Some of the old TJPW talent who attended the show also got involved one way or another. Minami Momochi was the promotion’s first ring announcer so it was only right to take up that job again today. Nodoka Tenma appeared in the ring with Miraclians for the show opening speech. She later reappeared wearing a Nodoka-oneesan hat to perform Pin Pon Pan Gymnastics with current members of the roster. Marika Kobashi and KANNA were both in the audience and helped Yamashita complete a rubber band snap spot on Misao. Akane Miura worked staff duties but I think she usually does that in TJPW anyway.

2. Next Generation Tournament ’23 – Semi-Final: Wakana Uehara defeated Toga with the Modified Sleeper Hold (8:02).

4. Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta defeated Yuki Kamifuku & Runa Okubo when Noa pinned Okubo with the Running Neckbreaker Drop (11:18).
5. Yuki Arai, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Moka Miyamoto, Juria Nagano & Kaya Toribami when Arai pinned Toribami with the Finally (8:49).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
7. International Princess Title: Max The Impaler (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Short-Range Lariat (10:49).
*V2 for Max The Impaler.

It’s not often that Shoko Nakajima feels intimidated by her opponent but she admitted today was the first time she felt a little scared having to fight Max The Impaler. She had good reason to feel that way because her attacks had little effect. Max caught her on dives and when Nakajima did a Dropkick, Max fired back with one of her own. Not even the Diving Senton landing on Max’s back while they were down on the ring apron gave Nakajima the advantage for long. In the end Max caught her with the Short-Range Lariat to defend the International Princess Title for a second time.

After the match Pom Harajuku entered the ring and congratulated Max on their victory. She thinks they can win the Princess Tag Team Titles together and bring them to Osaka the next time they come back. Harajuku then played interpreter after Max roared. She explained that was just Max asking fans to come see the Tag Title match on 1st December. Backstage Nakajima said Max reminds her of the new Godzilla movie she just watched. There is a line in the movie about how you can kill Godzilla but he still won’t die. She thinks that can be applied to Max too.

The final match between The Magical Sugar Rabbits and Daydream has been on Yuka Sakazaki’s mind for months. The two teams were meant to face each other for the Princess Tag Titles back in June but Sakazaki had to pull out due to her neck injury and Mizuki fought Daydream by herself in a rare 2-Vs-1 Handicap match. Sakazaki felt responsible for putting Mizuki in that situation and wanted to make it up for her with this match. The result was the teams fighting each other to a 20 minute stalemate. Sakazaki shook hands with Rika Tatsumi afterwards and then hugged Miu Watanabe when he noticed her crying. Backstage Sakazaki said she was happy to have the match but disappointed there was no winner because she isn’t sure if there will ever be a rematch. She praised Watanabe for her growth and wants her to become a leader for Tokyo Joshi Pro. That’s how high her hopes are for her. Tatsumi is certain MagiRabi Vs Daydream will happen again someday.

Mahiro Kiryu wanted the teams in Match #3 to be changed around because she believes the trio of Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku are unbeatable. The others agreed but their solution was to all attack Kiryu to make the match 5 against 1. Kiryu used her apology spot to take back her idea and the match returned to the original teams as advertised.

The final of the Next Generation Tournament has been decided. The first portion of the show featured the two semi-finals where Wakana Uehara submitted Toga and HIMAWARI pinned Shino Suzuki. This is the first time HIMAWARI won a match by pinfall.

Uehara pointed out she and HIMAWARI debuted on the same day so they are often compared to each other by people around them. HIMAWARI still remembers losing to Uehara by submission in their previous singles match together. She wants to get revenge for that.

Production of Hyper Misao’s replacement superbike the Hypami Go will soon begin. However Misao needs to use a crowdfunding site to afford it and will start up a campaign soon. She told fans the more support she gets the more powerful the bike will be.

Here is the match order for Sunday’s big show. There is a public press conference tomorrow featuring the wrestlers involved in the most important matches so there may be a last minute angle or moment done to heat them up a little one last time.

The KO-D Tag Team Titles match being pushed all the way down to the opening bout is odd. Maybe it’s for scheduling reasons regarding some of the wrestlers involved? Everyone in that match are the kind of wrestlers who keep themselves busy on the indies.

2. Next Generation Tournament ’23 – Round 1: Toga defeated Runa Okubo with the Modified Rock Bottom (6:12).

5. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Suzume & Arisu Endo when Sakazaki pinned Endo with the Magical Girl Splash (11:48).
6. Saki Akai TJPW Last Match: Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Rika Tatsumi & Hyper Misao when Akai pinned Misao with the Quetzalcoatl (15:56).
7. Special Match – Saki Akai Vs Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling ~ 1 Vs 23: Saki Akai defeated Miyu Yamashita, Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Hyper Misao, Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta, Yuki Aino, Raku, Pom Harajuku, Suzume, Arisu Endo, Moka Miyamoto, Kaya Toribami, Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Toga, Shino Suzuki, Haru Kazashiro & Runa Okubo when Akai submitted Misao with the Triangle Choke (5:50).

Saki Akai’s busy weekend ended with her final match in Tokyo Joshi Pro. The match went ahead as Akai teaming with Yuki Kamifuku to take on Rika Tatsumi & Hyper Misao. Akai’s opponents walked out wearing protest gear and carrying signs calling themselves the National Federation To Prevent Saki Akai From Retiring. They attacked Akai with the signboards and Misao even tried to use the Quetzalcoatl on her. Kamifuku even the odds but the match came down to Akai and Misao. The match was so important that Misao pulled out the Vanitas. But Akai turned things around and won the match by using the Quetzalcoatl.

Tatsumi didn’t want the match to end and she told Akai there are still loads of wrestlers in TJPW she hasn’t fought yet. She then came up with an idea for Akai to take on the entire TJPW roster immediately! Akai refused, explaining she is tired from just wrestling a match now as well as from her DDT match earlier today. Tatsumi slapped some sense into Akai and suddenly she agreed. It was now going to be Akai against 23 TJPW wrestlers as her final match in the promotion!

Actually, there were more than 23 members of the TJPW team that got involved in the match. During a train attack set up by the entire roster on Akai, graduates Akane Miura and Nodoka Tenma joined in and got their hits in. Tetsuya Koda was also dragged into the attack but Akai blocked him with a Big Boot and then Penalty Kicked him in the back. Akai was then confronted by Miyu Yamashita for a quick preview of Akai’s retirement match on 12th November. Misao tricked Akai into reading a heartfelt letter she wrote so she could roll her up for a pin but Akai countered it into a Triangle Choke to make Misao give up.

After the match Misao thanked Akai for letting everyone in TJPW show their feelings for her. Akai told all of the roster to be strong, noble and beautiful so they can show TJPW to the entire world. She took a group photo with everyone (including the injured Haruna Neko) but purposely avoided giving Yamashita a hug. They will be wrestling each other one last time pretty soon so they did a fist bump instead.

Yuka Sakazaki has a lot of catching up to do on her road to graduation. But there’s only so many matches left for her and Mizuki to be together as The Magical Sugar Rabbits. Today they fought Daisy Monkey and beat them thanks to Sakazaki pinning Arisu Endo with the Magical Merry-Go-Round. There will be two more matches left for MagiRabi together as a team. Sakazaki does not want to treat them lightly although she was quick to point out this does not mean the team is splitting up. Suzume calls MagiRabi a tag team she always admired and wanted to beat. She thinks it is because of them that Daisy Monkey was able to grow this far.

The opening round of the Next Generation Tournament took place in the first two matches. Toga was met with a strong defence from Runa Okubo. She was knocked off her feet often but dropped her opponent with the Rock Bottom to win. Okubo didn’t want to lose but she now supports Toga to go and win the tournament so next time they fight, Okubo will beat her. Toga will now face Wakana Uehara in Round 2. Uehara beat her the last time they had a singles match together. Toga promised to show all of her potential to win the rematch.

The other 1st Round match ended with HIMAWARI beating Haru Kazashiro by submission. She wasn’t able to lock in the Half Crab first time around but eventually applied it right to get the win. Kazashiro admitted she cannot compete with HIMAWARI so she’ll just have to keep practicing until she can beat her. HIMAWARI said she couldn’t afford to lose. She faces Shino Suzuki in the next round and is confident she will beat her because she has already done it before.
