May 24, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHIZUOKA”, 24/05/2025
Shizuoka Shimizu Marine Building
232 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Toga defeated Mifu Ashida with the Rock Bottom (5:30).
2. 3 Way Match: Raku defeated Mahiro Kiryu and Ivy Steele when Raku pinned Steele with the Hurricane Turn (8:28).
3. Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa & Chika Nanase when Miyamoto submitted Nanase with the Rashomon (9:24).
4. Rika Tatsumi defeated Pom Harajuku with the White Dragon Sleeper (11:01).
5. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Maki Itoh & Uta Takami when Suzume pinned Takami with the Ring A Bell (10:46).
6. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko defeated Kaya Toribami, Wakana Uehara & HIMAWARI when Nakajima pinned HIMAWARI with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:42).
7. Mizuki & Haru Kazashiro defeated Miu Watanabe & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (15:25).

The hometown girl Shino Suzuki was put through her paces in the main event. Mizuki kept breaking out of her Sleeper Hold but in return Suzuki fought to avoid being put in the Face Lock. Suzuki’s last gaps came from throwing some Elbow Strikes but Mizuki knocked her away with a Back Elbow and got the pin with the Cutie Special. Mizuki got on the microphone after the match and said there are so many people here today who love Suzuki! She secretly would have liked Suzuki to win today but she couldn’t let that happen. Mizuki still has to show her what Tokyo Joshi Pro is like right now. She hopes Suzuki will get stronger so one they they can fight each other for a championship. She also praised Haru Kazashiro and said Miu Watanabe is still a monster but she has become more like a princess now. Suzuki admitted when she lived in Shizuoka nothing she did went well for her. She thought it was a city where people gave up on their dreams. But she found pro wrestling and became really passionate for it so she now loves this city and is proud to come back here.

Is Uta Takami now a part of the Itoh Respect Army? She and Maki Itoh sang “Setsunairo” together for their entrance. That’s the song Itoh made with Mizuki for the original Itoh Respect Army tag team.

An out of the ring chase caused Pom Harajuku to try and trap Rika Tatsumi out of the room by closing a shutter gate on her. Tatsumi though had the strength to lift the gate above her head so she could get back in.

The apprentice ring announcer Rise Shirai did the match calls for the opening bout.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 1” Results

May 17, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 1”, 17/05/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
335 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yuki Aino defeated Ivy Steele with the Venus DDT (6:37).
2. Pom Harajuku defeated Chika Nanase with the Pom de Justice (6:49).
3. Maki Itoh defeated Uta Takami with the Itoh Deluxe (10:57).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Raku defeated Rika Tatsumi & Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Famouser (9:27).

6. Shoko Nakajima & Kaya Toribami defeated Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto when Toribami pinned Miyamoto with the Sento Choryu (11:30).
7. Yoshiko Hasegawa, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Suzume, Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Hasegawa submitted Kazashiro with the Muffler Hold (13:00).

Yoshiko Hasegawa said she was able to win the main event thanks to the wrestlers she was teaming with. But next time she will have to fight alone when she challenges Suzume for the International Princess Title. That match happens on 31st May at Shino Suzuki’s homecoming show so she told her they have both have to win there. She wants to see her juniors live selfishly like she is right now. HIMAWARI later said she wants to keep winning too so she can challenge for the IP Title again. Backstage Suzume said she could feel the sincerity coming from Hasegawa and it is firing her up for the title match.

The four year anniversary of Kaya Toribami’s pro wrestling debut is coming up soon. She was introduced to Tokyo Joshi Pro by Shoko Nakajima and while she had fun wrestling on the undercards, she never considered herself as someone who could challenge her seniors for championships. But recently her feelings about that changed and she now wants to have a passionate title match with Nakajima where she can fight her heart out! Nakajima asked which of her two championships does Toribami want to fight her for and she picked the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title because she wants a singles match with Nakajima in particular. Nakajima said she understands Toribami’s abilities better than anyone and then explained she needs this championship to keep going back to America. The title is also a magical belt that can make dreams come true. It can transform a small Japanese girl into a giant monster that can shock the world! Toribami understood and promised to go beyond her potential to try and take it from her. The title match will take place on 7th June, the first day of Toribami’s fifth year as a pro wrestler. Backstage Nakajima approved of what Toribami did today because she normally doesn’t stand out much. She thinks it would do Toribami some good if she stood out more.

The new ring announcer and replacement for Sayuri Namba was properly introduced to everybody for the first time after being revealed on a Youtube video yesterday. Rise Shirai will begin her new role on the 24th May show acting as Namba’s apprentice for one month. The apprenticeship will last up until Namba’s graduation in June.

Sayuri Namba’s Expedition For A New Ring Announcer

May 16, 2025


Urgent Pursuit!! The New TJPW Ring Announcer Actually Exists!!

A video was posted on Tokyo Joshi Pro’s Youtube channel today focusing on Sayuri Namba’s search for her replacement. The ring announcer will be graduating from TJPW on 22nd June and at the time there was no information in regards to who would be taking over her role. Today we found out when Namba and Shino Suzuki were filmed going on an exploration through uncharted territory (definitely not the park that’s across the road from DDT’s office in Shinjuku) in the hopes of finding a new ring announcer. The presentation is a homage to the 1970s TV show “Kawaguchi Hiroshi Tankentai”, from using a “S.W.A.T.” theme song soundalike for the intro to having Suzuki be attacked and bitten by a snake for drama.

The exploration seemed to end in failure with neither Namba or Suzuki finding what they were looking for. Namba was ready to give up with the knowledge that if things get bad she can always just come back from Canada every once in a while to help out TJPW. But then a woman named Shirai suddenly appeared asking if Namba is still looking for a ring announcer? Shirai explained she first discovered Namba from seeing her perform as a ring girl on a DDT show and when she learned about her ring announcing career she became inspired to follow in Namba’s footsteps. Suzuki was happy with this discovery but Namba refused to accept Shirai’s request unless she could beat her in a rap battle. Shirai was able to do just that so it looks like TJPW is getting a new ring announcer after all.
