5. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) Vs Hikari Noa
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel (c) Vs Mirai Maiumi & Suzume
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita
The full card for the next Tokyo Joshi Pro show in Korakuen Hall is out and it now has big ramifications for “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2021” in June. Whoever leaves the show as the Princess Of Princess Champion will defend the title in Saitama Super Arena against the winner of the 3 Way Match. Rika Tatsumi has never beaten Miyu Yamashita in a singles match. No matter what she did against her in those matches, Yamashita never broke. Tatsumi thinks Yamashita is not a human but a monster. The only way to beat a monster is to crush their head or punch them in the heart. That’s what she is thinking about going into Korakuen. Both champion and challenger would want the match to happen in front of an audience but they are sure fans will be cheering them on from their homes.
NEO Biishiki-gun aren’t taking too kind to BeeStar challenging them for the Princess Tag Team Titles. When BeeStar interrupted their celebration at Korakuen to ask for a title shot, Mei Saint-Michel froze on the spot. She hasn’t forgiven them for ruining her first title win ever since. Every time she looks at her championship, she sees the faces of Mirai Maiumi & Suzume staring back at her in plate’s reflection. Sakisama doesn’t understand where the challengers are getting their confidence from. They came from parts of Japan where nature is abundant so she thinks they must have been infected by the bad side of Tokyo. BeeStar say they are steadily evolving until 4th May and will get revenge for losing to NEO Biishiki-gun back in February.
Under normal circumstances, Hikari Noa does not have a positive win-loss record to qualify for a title match. However, she has received so much high praise from fans for her performance against Yamashita two weeks ago that Tetsuya Koda is rewarding her with a match against Yuki Kamifuku for the International Princess Title. He thinks Noa is fully qualified to get the title shot. This follows Sena Shiori’s departing comments about wanting to see her friend win a singles championship. Kamifuku has been defending the “Tiffany Blue” belt against locals on the roster. She wants to start defending it against international talent so she does not want to lose the title before that can happen. As the world battles against Covid-19, Noa will battle against Kamiyu-28!
The 3 Way Match consists of three of TJPW’s strongest, mashing together The Miraclians and The Magical Sugar Rabbits with only one standing tall in the end. Yuka Sakazaki wants to win back the Princess Title because she isn’t happy with how much the pandemic effected her previous reign. Shoko Nakajima wants to win back the title because she is more confident in herself now than back when she was the champion. Mizuki thinks she is a long way from becoming champion but winning the belt will get her to break out of her shell. All three of them don’t want to fight either Tatsumi or Yamashita which makes things awkward. Tatsumi would like to face Mizuki though.

5. KO-D Openweight Title: Jun Akiyama (c) Vs HARASHIMA
A series of pre-show bouts will be held before “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2021” kicks off. There will be four STARTING BATTLE matches mixing together wrestlers from DDT, NOAH, Tokyo Joshi Pro and Ganbare☆Pro. The “main event” of the pre-show is being provided by Ganpro. Ken Ohka is thrilled because both the main event and the opening match are the most important matches on a wrestling card. By that logic, adding the main event and the opening match together creates something that is super important!
One of the matches is a Royal Rumble with Yoshiaki Yatsu announced to be taking part. In 2019 Yatsu began wrestling with DDT during the build up to the Tokyo Olympics. Then in the summer Yatsu had to get his right foot amputated because of issues with diabetes. Then in March 2020 Yatsu announced his plans to come back to wrestling using a prosthetic foot specially designed by Kawamura Prosthetics Inc. for use in the ring. His scheduled return in June was called off when “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2020” was cancelled because of the pandemic. Since then Yatsu got to be an Olympic torchbearer in Ashikaga City. Now a year later Yatsu will get to complete his comeback by entering the STARTING BATTLE Rumble. Yatsu demonstrated his prosthetic foot by beating up Ken Ohka a bunch with wrestling moves during a press conference.
The Battle Royal will feature wrestlers from DDT and NOAH. The winner receives a Victory Award from CyberFight.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SPRING TOUR ’21 ~THE BULLET~”, 24/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 110 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Maki Itoh & Arisu Endo defeated Nao Kakuta & Moka Miyamoto when Itoh submitted Miyamoto with the Itoh Special (9:51).
2. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao defeated Pom Harajuku and Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Harajuku with La Magistral Cradle (11:01).
3. Yuki Kamifuku, Marika Kobashi & Raku defeated Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko when Kobashi pinned Neko with the Running Bulldog Headlock (11:29).
4. Hikari Noa defeated Sena Shiori with the Blizzard Suplex (8:50).
5. Miyu Yamashita, Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Shoko Nakajima defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Mirai Maiumi & Suzume when Nakajima pinned Watanabe with the Northern Lights Suplex (13:07).
After the main event Shoko Nakajima touched on the latest state of emergency in Japan and Tokyo Joshi Pro’s decision to do empty arena shows for the next couple of weeks. Nakajima said she won’t have a chance to see the fans again but there is no pain that never ends. TJPW has to say goodbye to their fans for a while but they will be working hard and doing their best in the meantime.
In the prelude to the Princess Of Princess Title match, Miyu Yamashita wasn’t satisfied with the amount of time she got to fight Rika Tatsumi. She’s happy to be in the match but she needed more to figure out the champion’s plan for their title match. She thinks Tatsumi is going to target her legs but there is still also the Dragon Sleeper to worry about. Tatsumi warns she isn’t the same person she was in the past. She is “Champion Rika Tatsumi” who fights to the death and overcomes all obstacles. She is thinking of how to finish Yamashita off on 4th May.
Sena Shiori graduates from TJPW after her final match against her best friend Hikari Noa. Shiori was able to kick out of the Blizzard Suplex but a second one with a bridge pinned her for the three count. After the match Shiori said it’s been a little over a year since her debut and just over two since she became a trainee. She is grateful for her time here. She also said this isn’t a retirement but a graduation so she will see everyone again some day. She’s feeling sad about it but Sena will be Sena and she’ll try her best to keep smiling from now on. Backstage Shiori mentioned her big regret was never winning the Princess Tag Team Titles with Noa. They were best friends before pro wrestling and when Noa found out that Shiori wanted to be a wrestler she invited her to join TJPW because it was a safe place to learn. Now that Shiori is graduating, she wants to see Noa become a singles champion.
Sudden news came out this morning that Sena Shiori will be graduating from Tokyo Joshi Pro on 24th April. She revealed she has been getting treatment for a chronic illness that’s been with her since before her debut match. She was able to go ahead with wrestling while the company watched over her condition for her safety. However Shiori’s doctor is now advising her to stop wrestling so she can concentrate on her treatment in order to make a full recovery. After discussions with TJPW, Shiori decided to graduate from pro wrestling after she achieved her first victory this past weekend in Korakuen Hall. She thanks everyone who supported her pro wrestling life and promised to do her best at her final match on the 24th.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND 2021 ~WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR DREAMS~”, 04/05/2021 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Yuki Arai Debut Match: Yuki Arai Vs X
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel (c) Vs Mirai Maiumi & Suzume
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita
The strongest champion should get the strongest challengers which is why Rika Tatsumi picked Miyu Yamashita as her No. 1 Contender. They fought over the Princess Of Princess Title during Golden Week once before. That was when Yamashita was the champion and she won that match against Tatsumi. Now the roles are reversed and Tatsumi is using her title reign to pick off big name opponents.
NEO Biishiki-gun are the new Princess Tag Team Champions with Sakisama leading a loyal servant to the belts for the third time. Their first challengers BeeStar became the top contenders by winning the 3 Way Tag Match in an upset against The Magical Sugar Rabbits and Kyoraku Kyomei. In an act of grace and arrogance, Sakisama is allowing Mirai Maiumi & Suzume time to prepare for their title match. Mei Saint-Michel meanwhile is already growing attached to the belts. Best be careful trying to take them from her.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STILL INCOMPLETE”, 17/04/2021 Tokyo Korakuen Hall 510 Fans
1. Marika Kobashi & Sena Shiori defeated Moka Miyamoto & Arisu Endo when Shiori submitted Watanabe with the Checkmate (8:39).
2. Miu Watanabe, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Yuna Manase, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Raku pinned Neko with the Doctor Yellow (10:10).

4. 3 Way Tag Match: Mirai Maiumi & Suzume defeated Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki and Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Maiumi pinned Nakajima with the Lariat (10:40).
5. International Princess Title: Yuki Kamifuku (c) defeated Nao Kakuta with the Famouser (9:02). *V3 for Yuki Kamifuku.
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) when Saint-Michel pinned Aino with a Cradle (17:36). *The Bakuretsu Sisters fail in V3. NEO Biishiki-gun becomes the 8th Princess Tag Team Champions!
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.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SPRING TOUR ’21 ~THE BULLET~”, 10/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 105 Fans – No Vacancy
1. Shoko Nakajima defeated Arisu Endo with the Northern Lights Suplex (8:09).
2. Marika Kobashi & Hikari Noa defeated Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko when Kobashi pinned Harajuku with a Running Bulldog Headlock (9:13).

5. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Nao Kakuta defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Maki Itoh & Miyu Yamashita when Kakuta pinned Kamifuku with the Shiden Kai (14:57).
We’re one week away from Korakuen Hall again. The focus of today’s main event was split in two directions. One was on Rika Tatsumi against Maki Itoh and the other was for Yuki Kamifuku against Nao Kakuta. Itoh cut off Kakuta from doing the Shiden Kai to Kamifuku. Tatsumi then got her hands on Itoh and put her in the Dragon Sleeper, refusing to let go. Kakuta went back to Kamifuku and got the better of her, winning the match with the Shiden Kai. Tatsumi still wouldn’t let go of the Dragon Sleeper after the match until Miu Watanabe and Miyu Yamashita separated them. Tatsumi asked a recovering Itoh if she has the energy to get up on her own. At Korakuen she is going to give her even more despair so if Itoh’s fans around the world want to change their support, now is the time! Kakuta then got on the microphone and told Kamifuku that being just a normal girl has nothing to do with what happens in the ring.
The participants in the semi-main event all tried to wrestle while playing Lords Mobile on their smartphones. Tokyo Joshi Pro currently has a cross-promotional event going on in the game and some of the wrestlers have formed their own guilds for fans to join. The winning guild at the end of the promotional event will appear on an upcoming advert for the game.
The Magical Sugar Rabbits were on the winning side against BeeStar in the 6-Woman Tag Match. The two teams are part of TJPW’s first ever 3 Way Tag Match at Korakuen next week.

6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (c) Vs Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Maki Itoh
Now that Maki Itoh has achieved her dream of going to AEW she thinks it is time for her to give back to everyone who made her who she is today. There is no bigger gift for her to give than to win the Princess Of Princess Title and bring Tokyo Joshi Pro all the way over to a sold out Tokyo Dome! The difference in popularity between her and Rika Tatsumi hasn’t gone unnoticed by the champion. She admits Itoh has become a major player while she is still on the indies level. But what’s strong is strong no matter what level you are at. Tatsumi crawled her way up to become the Princess Champion and she isn’t giving it away on her second defence.
Sakisama continues to act like The Bakuretsu Sisters are below her despite them being the current Princess Tag Team Champions. She thinks they shouldn’t be walking around with the belts because NEO Biishiki-gun won the Max Heart Tournament and that determines who is the strongest team in TJPW. Mei Saint-Michel is looking forward to decorating her room with the pink title belts. The Sisters said they are taking a piece from all of their previous title match opponents to stay as champions no matter what. They’ve also taken Sakisama’s “Korakuen Pork” insults and turned it into actual “Champion Pork” to sell inside Korakuen Hall during the show.
There is a lot of talk between Yuki Kamifuku and Nao Kakuta over the differences between standing out and being normal. Kamifuku wants to stand out as the International Princess Champion so she can draw in people who aren’t wrestling fans to TJPW. Kakuta believes the value of the IP Title changes depending on the person who claims it. It is valuable because of what Kamifuku has done as champion so far but Kakuta thinks she can become a wonderful champion too with how she is now.

5. Special Single Match: HARUKAZE Vs Yuu Yamagata
6. Special Single Match: Yuna Manase Vs Yuu Yamagata
The original plan for Yuu Yamagata coming in to the show was just to wrestle HARUKAZE in a singles match. Those two haven’t wrestled each other since 2012. Unfortunately Yamagata has no memory of who HARUKAZE is and doesn’t want to wrestle her. Yuna Manase is the person who put this card together and she appealed to Yamagata to do the match. That caused Yamagata to then challenge Manase to a match on the show instead! After an argument between the three parties it was decided that Yamagata will wrestle twice on the show. Once against HARUKAZE and once against Manase.
Manase was able to make the Asuka, Hagane Shinno & Shinichiro Tominaga match against Gake no Fuchi Joshi for the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL ~WOMEN ONLY FREE BOX OFFICE~”, 04/04/2021 Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall 110 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Mirai Maiumi defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Lariat (7:39).
2. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Marika Kobashi and Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Famouser (7:06).
3. Sakisama & Mei Saint-Michel defeated Yuki Aino & Mahiro Kiryu when Saint-Michel pinned Kiryu after the Tarte Tatin (9:09).
4. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Raku defeated Nodoka Tenma, Nao Kakuta & Haruna Neko when Nakajima pinned Neko with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:03).
5. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Itoh pinned Shiori with the Flying Big Head (12:25).
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.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 01/04/2021 Shin-Kiba 1st RING 142 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
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.
