It is the 5th Anniversary of Yuki Arai’s pro wrestling debut and she celebrates it by standing on top of the Tokyo Joshi Pro mountain. Her second Princess Of Princess Title defence was completed today with a victory over Arisu Endo, who was one of her first opponents in her debut match five years ago. Endo just couldn’t pull off the Ju no Okite to put Arai away with the move being either blocked or escaped from. After the latter happened, Arai got Endo with the Finally to the back of the head. She then hit the Rookie Award followed by another Finally to put Endo away. After the match Arai said Endo always calls her the main character of TJPW behind the scenes. Arai doesn’t like to say that but in her world, Endo is the main character too along with everyone else in TJPW. Backstage Endo said the match shows how much both of them have grown over five years because they got to fight for the Princess Title in the main event of Korakuen Hall today.

Back in the ring Arai talked about having her debut match five years ago. It was at an empty Korakuen Hall because of the covid pandemic but today she feels like she is in the best condition possible by defending the Princess Title in front of a big crowd. Yuki Kamifuku then entered the ring and told Arai she looks tired. When Kamifuku lost the Princess Tag Team Titles she wondered why she works so hard as a wrestler. She figured out it’s because it makes her feel beautiful! She isn’t really that invested in championships and hates fighting in singles matches but working so hard towards a goal feels like the perfect anti-aging technique for her. So for the first time ever Kamifuku wants to challenge for the Princess Title! Arai accepted and asked for the match to happen in Korakuen on 7th June. Kamifuku then asked to take a picture together with her while they’re both looking their youngest. Kamifuku admitted backstage she considered doing the title challenge two days ago when she looked in the mirror and noticed her skin was beginning to sag a bit. She also believes that Arai is already starting to rest on her laurels too much.

Daydream are now two-time Princess Tag Champions after they defeated The IInspiration, bringing the belts back home to TJPW. In the leadup to the match they made dolls of The IInspiration, claiming they were just doing it to be cute despite the dolls looking anything but. Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee were given the dolls as gifts before the match began but they threw them away and attacked the challengers. Late in the match Miu Watanabe saved Rika Tatsumi from taking the IIdolizer then she dropped Tatsumi onto both of them with a Human Bomb double team move. Lee and Watanabe then fought in the corner where Tatsumi used them as a stepping stone to hit McKay with the Flying Hip Attack. With McKay out of the way, Lee was given the Daydream Eternity and was pinned by Watanabe for the title change. The IInspiration later blamed the loss on TJPW being a dangerous workplace. They complained about having to wrestle after taking an 18 hour flight, getting paper streamers thrown at their heads, being hit in the face by Tatsumi’s butt, being swung around in circles by Watanabe and on top of it all feeling dehydrated the entire time. They wouldn’t mind coming back to TJPW but only if they have plenty of drinking water ready, everyone stops throwing paper streamers at them and they get to challenge for the tag titles again.

Watanabe said it feels like five million years since the last time they were Princess Tag Champions and Tatsumi wondered if everyone even remembers when they held the old white belts? Daydream felt the worldwide experience of The IInspiration while fighting them and they hope they will come back to Japan. Tatsumi now wants Daydream to go after the most defences record. Their first challengers then made themselves known when Mizuki & Uta Takami walked out. The two of them have continued teaming together since reaching the final of this year’s Max Heart Tournament. Takami has grown to love wrestling even more because of it so she wants to get a title shot with Mizuki. Tatsumi scolded Takami because she never gave her permission to team with Mizuki but she is willing to defend the titles against the two of them if it means the team will end after Daydream wins. However Mizuki said she is living in the present and wants to team with Takami to win the belts, even if it means stealing Tatsumi’s heart in the process. The title match will happen on 7th June.

Now is not the time yet for Haru Kazashiro to win championships. Suzume took Kazashiro’s best shot and was still standing. She kicked out of the Fisherman Suplex and escaped from the Straight Armbar to keep Kazashiro flustered. Kazashiro tried going for the Fisherman Suplex again but Suzume countered it into a Noshigami and followed up with a top rope Facecrusher. She then hit the Ring A Bell to remain as the International Princess Champion. She said she is happy to see Kazashiro reach the point to where they can fight each other in title matches now. Suzume is also very excited she will be going to her homecoming show in two days time as the IP Champion. Kazashiro called the match fun even though she feels like she could have done better. She gets frustrated when she isn’t able to show everyone what she learns in training and doesn’t get to fully enjoy her matches because of it. But today’s match confirmed to her who she is and it was the most fun she’s ever had because of it. She believes this confidence she gained will only make her stronger.

Something was on Hyper Misao’s mind when Kyoraku Kyomei faced K!SS// in a rematch from the Max Heart Tournament. Misao wanted to start the match off with Sakura Hattori straight away because she really wanted to fight the newcomer. However it seemed like she couldn’t tell that Hattori is the former Kaya Toribami who pinned her back in that tournament. Hattori’s ninja techniques were quickly foiled by Misao’s Hero Spray and Miyu Yamashita got blinded with it too. The match was decided under more skillful means when Hattori went back and forth with Shoko Nakajima. After a lot of dodged moves, Nakajima got the better of Hattori by countering the Kitcho Kagome cradle into a counter pin that held the ninja’s shoulders down for the three count. It wasn’t until Kyoraku Kyomei went back to the locker room that they realised Hattori used to be Toribami! Now they’re wondering how a bird suddenly turned into a ninja while they weren’t paying attention. Meanwhile Yamashita noted this was the first time K!SS// were teaming up since Hattori’s transformation. They’re going to continue teaming together and aim for a championship but Yamashita thinks they may need to rename the tag team to something more fitting for Hattori’s ninja aesthetic.

Toga collided with Ryo Mizunami from the get go with clashing Shoulder Blocks, Chops and Elbow Strikes. Mizunami blocked the Absolute Zero but still gave Toga encouragement to fight her harder. Toga was staggered after taking a Headbutt and some Lariats though. Once she was taken down with the Spear it was all over for her. Mizunami remembers her previous singles match with Toga around two and a half years ago. She’s happy to see Toga didn’t waste her time since them but still thinks Toga needs to forge her own path to get stronger. While Toga believes she has gotten stronger, she also thinks she has not closed the gap between her and Mizunami. She promised not to give up until she can definitely beat Mizunami!

The illusion that’s been crafted for Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu is at risk of falling apart. Kamifuku outright told them before their match that the two do not look alike! However after doing the opening exchange with Sekiguchi, Kamifuku lost track of who was who and couldn’t tell them apart any more. An attempt at twin magic was also played on Aja Kong but she solved the puzzle by slapping the both of them one after the other. She gave Sekiguchi the Back Drop but Kamifuku again confused her opponent for Kiryu and tried to pin her when she wasn’t the legal woman. The real Kiryu tried to capitalize but Kamifuku fought back and correctly pinned her with the Famouser. She can’t explain how she confused Sekiguchi for Kiryu other than they started looking more alike to her as the match progressed. Kamifuku will next meet Kong on opposing teams for Kong’s 40th Anniversary show. Kong said the “fake Mahiro” will be there too. She would have also booked the real one if she had the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title but without it, Kong has zero interest in Mahiro Kiryu because she’s useless.

Golden Week is a very busy time in Japan which was proven when Pom Harajuku led a train attack in her match and called it “Golden Week Traffic Jam”. She also used her loud screaming stop Mei Suruga from doing a rope walk move on Yuki Aino. Suruga then didn’t know what to do when Raku laid down in the ring and started to sulk instead of nap. She got better when Suruga lied down next to her and patted her on the head in apology. The three gremlin sisters then went crazy on Love Triangle until Harajuku took off her shoes and tried to fight off Mizuki with them. Mizuki took the shoes off her and then accidentally threw them into the audience while fighting with Aino. Harajuku got a replacement pair from Raku but Mizuki ended up throwing those away too. She then beat Takami with the Diving Foot Stomp after getting some help with Takami. Suruga told Mizuki afterwards that today was the first time they’ve teamed up in eight years! The two of them told Takami she needs to become as bold as they are.

YuuRI was back in TJPW and started off her match facing against Chika Nanase. When it was Shino Suzuki’s turn to get involved, she took Wakana Uehara sightseeing around the ring. Kira Summer breaking up Nanase’s pin on Uehara caused all six wrestlers to get in and start fighting. Suzuki got rid of Summer with the Belly-To-Belly Suplex. She & HIMAWARI then got YuuRI with a Spear/Neckbreaker combo. Nanase tried to finish off Uehara by herself but Uehara turned things around and won with the Sushi Tornado.

In the opening match the two rookies Ren Konatsu and Shion Kanzaki faced each other once again. Konatsu came out on top this time by using a new submission move to win. She put Kanzaki in the Rings Of Saturn to win and it was later named the Shoulder Bites (maybe because the move was also once called the Batista Bite?).

When the show began Rise Shirai introduced everyone to Momo Sato, confirming that the idol has officially become a trainee for TJPW like she said she would back in March. Sato is the younger sister of DDT wrestler Daichi Sato and has spent time in the wrestling ring before doing stuff for HEAT-UP. Since then she became an idol with Harajuku Gakuen and was scouted by Sanshiro Takagi to give TJPW a go. Sato greeted the fans and told them she will do her best to make her debut. On a sidenote, this news comes shortly after a now former trainee was seen working ringside duties at a Marigold show over the weekend. Anri was the trainee who was meant to debut alongside Shion Kanzaki back in January but it was called off when she wasn’t considered to be in the right condition to debut yet. I hadn’t heard anything about her ever since that announcement came out. Then very recently there was a Rossy Ogawa interview where he revealed Marigold will soon have a new rookie who was originally supposed to debut somewhere else. A few Japanese fans on Twitter were quick to recognise Anri at ringside at Marigold and now things are starting to clear up a little bit. I don’t see any harm or foul over it. Every wrestling company has trainees who come, go and then debut somewhere else for whatever reason. TJPW is no exception and have been accused of committing similar actions in the past. Also while we’re here is the other trainee Yuuka still around? I never notice what trainees are working ringside duties until social media points it out.
The 7th June show will have MIRAI returning to wrestle and also Sumire Uesaka appearing as a guest commentator. As far as I know Uesaka is still the Iron Man Champion after winning it back at “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”.
TJPW is collaborating with the Tokyo Idol Festival to hold matches during the TIF ASIA Tour being held in Odaiba this summer. The matches will be held on 31sy July, 1st August and 3rd August.

I am making the (somewhat foolish) trip to Las Vegas this week to see Tokyo Joshi Pro amongst other wrestling shows (also Golden Knights ice hockey and a Battlebots taping of all things). Updates on here might get delayed while I’m over there but if I find time to write about them, it will show up eventually. Before I go there will be a DDT Around The World article coming up along with a guide for the TJPW Las Vegas show. They are both coming up tomorrow.

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

3. YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashihita
4. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) Vs Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii
In good news, Munetatsu Nakamura has been cleared to return to the ring after spending the last three months recovering from a herniated cervical disc. Ganbare☆Pro has added him to their Korakuen show at the end of the month, putting him in the opener along with Choun Shiryu to even out the teams.
BASARA “BASARA 306 ~UTAGE~”, 01/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida Vs Banana Senga Vs Gouma Ryu
2. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs FUMA & Seiya Morohashi
The specter of Union Pro continues to hang over BASARA with the latest challengers approaching Aijin Tag. The duo of FUMA & Seiya Morohashi are the next team to challenge for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles.
Hang on we just had Ayato Yoshida on trial last month. What the hell kind of trouble has he gotten into this time?
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND ’26”, 04/05/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Ryo Mizunami Vs Toga
2. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Haru Kazashiro
Yesterday Ryo Mizunami announced she has rejoined Sendai Girls after previously being affiliated with them from 2007-2012. If there was any worry that the news means she would no longer appear in TJPW anymore than fear not because she is showing up for Golden Week to have a singles match against Toga!
BASARA “TRANS-AM ★ HIROSHI GOLDEN 15TH ANNIVERSARY”, 15/05/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Kazuki Hirata Vs Daichi Kazato
2. Minoru Fujita & Antonio Honda Vs Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto
3. MEN’S Teioh, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga Vs Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Takeru Inoue
4. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Ayumu Honda
I’m thinking over the fifteen years of Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and wonder how things could have been if he never suffered that shoulder injury back in 2014. Back then DDT struck a deal with All Japan for AJPW to “rent” Hiroshi for six months. He then dislocated his shoulder right before he was supposed to start his AJPW excursion. When he recovered he got to do a handul of tours with them in 2015 and 2016 but it wasn’t anything worth talking about at the time. And then he made the switch from Americana pro wrestler into the yoga weirdo we see today. But he’s our yoga weirdo so it’s nice to see this milestone get celebrated. Whenever he hangs out with Ayumu Honda he always speaks on his behalf, often misinterpretating his promos. Honda will get a chance to shut him up on his special day.
One of Hiroshi’s influences is on the card. He has both fought and teamed with MEN’S Teioh several times back in Hiroshi’s Union Pro days.

7. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) defeated Toga with the Lariat (10:24).
*V1 for MIRAI.
8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Mizuki & Uta Takami when Uehara pinned Takami with the Sushi Tornado (14:25).

It took until the sixth year for the reigning Princess Tag Team Champions to go all the way and win the Max Heart Tournament for the first time ever. Ober Eats now have that bragging right after defeating Mizuki & Uta Takami in today’s final. As the match broke down into a frantic finish, Mizuki sacrificed herself to pull Takami out of the way from a step-up elevated Big Boot by Ober Eats and take the blow by herself. Her last heroic act was to counter a Double Flapjack into a Double Stomp that landed on both Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara. Takami tried to end things by putting Uehara into the Koala Clutch but Uehara fought out of it with a Snap Suplex and rolled Takami into the Sushi Tornado to win the match.

After the match Kamifuku got on the microphone and brought up the criticisms Ober Eats get for being the Princess Tag Champions. She remembers there were comments about hoe it was too soon for them to win the belts and Uehara wasn’t ready to be in that position yet. Then Kamifuku admitted those were actually her own opinions and she apologised to Uehara because she proved her wrong. Uehara knows her tag partner wasn’t always excited about them challenging for the titles but she is grateful to fight alongside her the entire time. Now Ober Eats are looking forward to “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” where Kamifuku wants to defend the tag titles against a team that surpasses them in every way from coolness and sexiness to the amount of social media followers they have. Uehara promised the fans that Ober Eats will deliver the best match to them at Sumo Hall on 29th March! Backstage Kamifuku gave some examples of the kind of challengers they want to fight. They need to be on the level of Suzu Hirose, Britney Spears, Nicki Manaj, Mana Ashida or Vivian Hsu. Takami is still happy with the overall experience despite losing because she created so many miracles with Mizuki. She doesn’t think they are finished making miracles yet either. Mizuki said she wants them to work hard together so when they challenge for the tag titles and win them, they will finally decide on a team name. Mizuki also said she always respected Kamifuku and now they have definitely become rivals.

This International Princess Title reign that MIRAI is going through is starting to turn into Tokyo Joshi Pro Vs Michinoku Pro in a way. The champion was again accompanied by Michinoku Pro wrestlers for her match, this time the pair of seconds at ringside were Yapper Man #1 & Yapper Man #2 (the masked gimmicks Speed Of Sounds use over there). The challenger Toga did invite her Hot Shot tag partner Yuna Manase to attend the show but she watched in the crowd since Toga’s title shot in the first place came from her wanting to take on a big challenge all by herself. Her right arm was targeted by MIRAI but she was able to hit her big Elbow Smash with it. But MIRAI got to pulled her down into the MIRAI☆Lock to make Toga fight for a rope break. Toga was then given an Olympic Slam for a nearfall before throwing back another Elbow Strike. MIRAI absorbed the blow and hit back with a Lariat to win the match.

MIRAI praised Toga after the match for being really strong and showing sides that MIRAI never knew she had. She’s impressed given this was Toga’s first time challenging for a singles championship. She encouraged Toga to keep finding herself step by step and they can then fight again some day. MIRAI then switched to talking about defending the IP Title at Sumo Hall, something she previously put out there without telling Tetsuya Koda. She already has an opponent in mind and wants to challenge her right here. It’s Suzume! The two were classmates in TJPW and even teamed up as BeeStar. Since then they both found their own ways to become stronger but Suzume admits she wouldn’t be who she is today without MIRAI. However she doesn’t want this match to happen just because of their history together. The IP Title is precious to her and she will fight to hold it again. Meanwhile MIRAI promises to bring the fight to her while carrying the weight of Michinoku Pro on her shoulders!

As we get closer to 29th March, things are getting a little more serious between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai. The two have the big Princess Of Princess Title match to look forward to but if things continue like they did today there’s the risk one of them might not make it to Sumo Hall. The two fought each other on the ring apron during their tag match, both aiming to use one of their signature moves on each other. Arai won out and used the Full Nelson Buster to throw Watanabe to the floor! Watanabe was able to get back in the ring before the 20 count and had Rika Tatsumi there to help by giving Arai the Twist Of Fate to get rid of her. Watanabe got to recover from the scary bump and pinned Mifu Ashida with the Tear Drop to get Daydream the victory. Watanabe took it as a good preview for “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” while Tatsumi got a sense of how dangerous Arai really is, although she hasn’t figured out if this is the kind of “madness” that Super Sasadango Machine told her to go search for. Over at Kyoto Tag, Ashida was upset over losing the match because she could really feel Arai’s desire to win. Even giving her a Valentine’s Day cheer during the match didn’t work. Arai assured her they will still team together and Ashida will continue to be part of Arai’s future plans. Arai also doesn’t regret giving Watanabe the Full Nelson Buster from the ring apron to the floor. She needed to do something big against her and in the moment knew just slamming her onto the ring apron would have put herself in harm’s way with the drop to the floor.

Suzume’s day was spent teaming up with Arisu Endo to take on Shoko Nakajima & Sara Phoenix. The guest from Chile got plenty of opportunity to go at it against Daisy Monkey while Nakajima remains a tricky opponent for the team to overcome. A bridging Regal Plex almost resulted in Phoenix pinning Suzume but Endo broke the pin at the last second. Phoenix then missed a Missile Dropkick, allowing Suzume to give her a Rope Walk Facebuster followed by the Ring A Bell to get the win.

For the second month in a row, Aja Kong has won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title at a TJPW Korakuen Hall show! She got to keep it this time too. Mahiro Kiryu needed all of the encouragement she could gather to fight Kong but it led to some setbacks. She had the werewithal to use the Iron Man Title belt as a weapon to counteract Kong’s steel can and even attempted to guard herself from an attack. But Kong paused long enough for Kiryu to drop her guard to get the headshot in anyway. Kiryu found someway to get in control and even roll up Kong for a nearfall. But Kong kicked out and gave Kiryu a slap before pinning her with the Back Drop to win the title. Backstage Kong said in the end the belt chooses her so she’s not going to leave anytime soon. Kiryu then confronted Kong alongside her lookalike Kakeru Sekiguchi and a referee. Sekiguchi spoke for Kiryu and moved her around like a puppet but it was only so Kong would be distracted for Kiryu to roll her up. The plan didn’t work and neither did the twin magic trick. Kong ran both of them off and currently remains the champion.

If Max The Impaler had their way, Pompaler would have teamed with Yuki Aino instead of Raku today. That didn’t happen because the entire point of the other team was so Aino could get Yukiniki and Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed to join forces for one day only. The match went ahead as planned and Max threw Pom Harajuku at the opposition after Ryo Mizunami dared to throw a Chop at Harajuku. Raku used her pillow to block Mizunami’s Chop but Max had enough of the shenanigans and threw the pillow away. Aino later got to do her double team moves with both Mizunami & Haru Kazashiro on the way to beating Harajuku with the Venus DDT.

Because today is Valentine’s Day, Hyper Misao wanted to confess her feelings to someone special by giving Miyu Yamashita some chocolates as a gift. However Chika Nanase interrupted her because she wanted to give Yamashita chocolate too. Kira Summer also had chocolates for Yamashita as did Kakeru Sekiguchi who explained she suddenly had a case of love at first sight. Yamashita thanked all of them but couldn’t accept anyone’s chocolate because she loves them all as TJPW’s Leader. It then turned out to be a trap by Misao’s team so they could jump Yamashita while her guard was down. Misao blinded Shino Suzuki with her Hero Spray while Sekiguchi fought with Kaya Toribami. Misao later led her team in a train attack on HIMAWARI but Suzuki came to the rescue so Bumping gRitters could take down Nanase together. That cleared the ring for HIMAWARI to pin Nanase with the Sunflower Tempest.

The opening match was a chance for Ren Konatsu and Shion Kanzaki fight over who would get their first singles win as a wrestler. Konatsu was able to fight out of a Sleeper Hold and get herself up to the middle rope. From there she did a hop onto the top rope that launched her into hitting a Missile Dropkick on Konatsu. That was enough for a three count and Konatsu got her first win eight months after her debut. She came up with the move because she’s been using sheep-like movements along with some trampolining practice and wanted to combine the two ideas together. Kanzaki was feeling upset because she felt like she couldn’t do anything against Konatsu. It makes her wonder how long it will take for her to catch up when she currently feels like she is at her limit. She promised to practice even harder after this.

6d. Miyu Yamashita eliminated Rika Tatsumi with the Crash Rabbit Heat (19:30).
6e. Yuki Arai eliminated Miyu Yamashita with the Scorpion Death Lock (24:17).
A 6-Woman Elimination Match was put together by Tokyo Joshi Pro to determine the No. 1 Contender for the Princess Of Princess Title at “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” later this year. This was not done as a typical Battle Royal were over the top rope eliminations were involved. Instead everyone had to pin or submit their opponents to knock them out of the match. Max The Impaler was the big target for everyone else and it took so much teamwork from all of them together to eventually take Max out of the running. Shoko Nakajima got the pinfall with the Diving Senton and then went on to eliminate Mizuki with a Jackknife Pin thanks to an assisted Hip Attack from Rika Tatsumi. Then Tatsumi got rid of Nakajima by using the Dragon Sleeper and switching it into a Reverse Twist Of Fate for the pinfall. Tatsumi was then next to go when Miyu Yamashita used the Avalanche Attitude Adjustment then finished her off with a Buzzsaw Kick followed by the Crash Rabbit Heat. That left Yamashita with Yuki Arai as the final two wrestlers. Arai surprisingly blocked the Skull Kick and knocked Yamashita back with a Big Boot. She then applied the Scorpion Death Lock and increased the pressure far enough to make Yamashita give up!
That means Arai will now challenge Miu Watanabe for the Princess Title at Sumo Hall on 29th March. With today’s result over Yamashita, Arai feels like she now has no other choice but to reach the top of TJPW. She called Watanabe down to the ring so she could challenge her face to face. Watanabe told Arai she earned the right to challenge her by winning an amazing match. She wants the two of them to fill up Sumo Hall to capacity and for Arai to tell everyone how much she loves TJPW along the way. Arai said she is now in a special position where she gets to perform in a big main event. She will put her heart and soul into it and cherish every day in order to become the strongest she can be.
In the meantime, Watanabe might need to watch out for other challengers showing up especially ones she previously defended the belt against. Yuki Aino took her to the limit in a tag match that went to a 20 minute draw. While J-Rod and Ryo Mizunami cancelled each other out with their power, Aino (sporting a new haircut) countered the Tear Drop into the Venus DDT for a nearfall. She was then seconds away from giving Watanabe the UBV when the bell rang to end the match in a tie.
Toga has decided to give a new name to her Rock Bottom Finisher. It is now called the Absolute Zero. So in typical fashion the first match she wins since renaming the move was won with a Face Lock instead.
In Match #3 Hyper Misao complained to Mahiro Kiryu over how she beat up the Hypami Dramatic Dream to win back the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title at Korakuen Hall last weekend. When Kiryu started arguing back, Misao sprayed her in the face and everyone in the match tried to pin her to win the belt.

*Mahiro Kiryu becomes the 1,793rd champion.
The final Tokyo Joshi Pro show of 2025 brought along the return of the Princess Rumble for its second edition. Last year’s winner Miu Watanabe couldn’t achieve the repeat thanks to Mizuki, Arisu Endo and Mifu Ashida all piling on top of her for the pinfall elimination. Ashida also used her pompoms to lure Max The Impaler into their elimination. Ram Kaichow, Ryo Mizunami and Kuishinbo Kamen all took part as the guest entrants but the finish came down to Mizuki pinning Ashida with the Cutie Special to win the whole thing. After the match Mizuki thanked the fans for supporting TJPW all year long because 2026 will be here in the blink of an eye. She invited the roster out to the ring and they all promised to give everyone wrestling that will make them look forward to tomorrow. Miyu Yamashita then led everyone in a ippon-jime clap to close out the show.
The last preview for the Princess Tag Team Titles match ended in favour of the challengers. Haru Kazashiro defeated Wakana Uehara, narrowly avoiding the Banana Pillow to instead pin her opponent with the Fisherman Suplex. Kazashiro brought up their last singles match against each other which was during last November’s Next Generation Tournament ’24. She’s now won two warm up matches in a row and wants to put all of this momentum into the tag titles match on 4th January. Uehara took the loss in her stride. Being a champion has made her stronger so she won’t be crying after losing matches anymore. The 4th January show is the first match of the year for everyone in TJPW so she really wants Ober Eats to successfully defend the belts against Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed next week.
The year ended with some Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title shenanigans going on throughout the show as well. Rika Tatsumi submitted the champion Mahiro Kiryu in a tag match to win the belt, then kicked away her tag partner Toga in an act of paranoia. Kiryu and Kakeru Sekiguchi later went looking for Tatsumi, chasing her into a locker room where HIMAWARI was alone eating a banana. They kicked her out and threw away the banana peel while Tatsumi suggested they play a card game of Old Maid to determine who should be champion. Sekiguchi won the game to become the new champ only to slip on the nearby banana peel while walking away and knock herself out. Kiryu quickly pinned her to become the Iron Man Champion again.
Four more teams were announced to take part in next Spring’s Max Heart Tournament. They are Kyoraku Kyomei, Bumping gRitters, Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami and Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida.

5. Mizuki, Suzume & Yuki Arai defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Toga when Suzume pinned Toga with the Ring A Bell (16:37).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Ocha defeated Natsume Nakayama (c) by Submission (2:44 pm).
*Ocha becomes the 1,789th champion.

A crossing of idol worlds took place for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s final Korakuen Hall show for 2025. They collaborated with the group OCHA NORMA for a special one-off show mixing wrestling matches with an idol concert. For the matches, different members of OCHA NORMA would play a role whether it was as a ring announcer, a commentator or simply to cheer on the wrestlers from ringside.

The show did still push forward towards 4th January. The main event had Miu Watanabe and Suzume cross paths again. Watanabe gave Suzume & Mizuki a Double Body Slam followed by the Double Giant Swing. Yuki Arai cut her off from doing the Canadian Backbreaker and Suzume wore her down to the point where she could do a low hanging Ring-A-Bell. Yuki Aino & Toga worked together to double team Suzume but Mizuki came in to give Watanabe the Whirling Candy. Suzume then singled out Toga to hit the Ring-A-Bell and win the match for her team. After the match Suzume said she is happy to see so many people’s love come together here, whether it is for OCHA NORMA or for pro wrestling. She promoted the 4th January show along with her match with Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title. Watanabe told Suzume they will meet here in Korakuen on 4th January to clash over what they love.

Tea is a strong concept that follows everything OCHA NORMA does but not everyone in TJPW are into that sort of stuff. There’s a group of wrestlers who think coffee is the superior drink and will fight to prove it! Hyper Misao, Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer joined forces to become the Coffee Breakers and promised to paint Korakuen Hall pitch black! They entered to the music from a Japanese coffee commercial then attacked the other team with coffee mugs. Misao also spat coffee into Rika Tatsumi’s face like it was the Poison Mist. However Misao also pulled out a spray can and accidentally blinded Kamifuku when Tatsumi ducked the attack. Tatsumi then sprayed all of the Coffee Breakers. Mifu Ashida threw Misao away with a German Suplex, Miyu Yamashita hit Kamifuku with the Skull Kick and Tatsumi finished off Summer with the Missile Hip.

With Tatsumi victorious the path was now clear for her to achieve her dream. For months now she has been winning and defending the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title just so she can give it as a gift to Natsume Nakayama, her favorite member of OCHA NORMA. After the match Tatsumi invited Nakayama into the ring and laid on the canvas with her eyes closed so she could be pinned. However Mahiro Kiryu entered the ring and pinned Tatsumi to win the title instead! When Tatsumi realised what happened, she got mad and choked Kiryu unconscious. She then invited Nakayama to pin Kiryu but she declined. Tatsumi wouldn’t take no for an answer though and she made Nakayama sit on Kiryu to pin her and become the new champion. Tatsumi’s dream came true and she hopes everyone took lots of cute pictures of them together with the belt.

A special guest from Mexico was booked from the show to make up for Shoko Nakajima being absent due to what was only described as “various circumstances”. Taking her place was Ochanor Mask and she made an odd first impression by deciding to dance instead of shaking her opponents’ hands before the match began. Wakana Uehara & Ren Konatsu didn’t know what to make of the Ocha Libre wrestling style and then things got even more odd when Konatsu accidentally unmasked Ochanor, possibly unveiling that it was really Shoko Nakajima all along! Ochanor tried to keep her face hidden and was still able to pin Konatsu before putting the mask back on in the hopes that no one noticed. Kaya Toribami was happy to win with her new Mexican friend but being a masked wrestler herself, she understands how scary a moment like that can be.

Ryo Mizunami was just as confused as the OCHA NORMA fans in attendance when her match began with Raku & Pom Harajuku taking a nap in the ring, causing their opponents to do the same thing. She woke Raku up and got attacked by her by mistake so the match could go ahead. Mizunami’s team eventually got on the same page and she was able to pin Chika Nanase with the Spear to win.

With a Princess Tag Team Titles shot coming up around the corner, Haru Kazashiro unveiled an upgraded version of her Arm Stretch submission hold. She can now set it up like a Codebreaker and then keep it applied in a way that looks like the Sol Naciente that Masato Yoshino from Dragon Gate used to do. The move that Kazashiro used is now called the Izayoi, which refers to the 16th night of the month that takes place after a full moon… Oh wait, there’s also something here that says it’s a Tokustatsu reference so that’s probably where she got the name from. Anyway, even though Arisu Endo took care of HIMAWARI and left the match up to Uta Takami, Kazashiro turned the tables and used the Izayoi to make Takami give up.

Midway through the show there was a special challenge that pitted TJPW against OCHA NORMA. It was an all out Rock Paper Scissors battle between the two sides. Haru Kazashiro and Pom Harajuku lost their games but Shino Suzuki saved the day for the TJPW team, winning the final game that was worth three points so TJPW ended up beating OCHA NORMA 3-2.

There were three musical performances held throughout the show in between the matches. OCHA NORMA performed for the majority of them but The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) took part in the opening segment. They played two of their own songs along with an OCHA NORMA cover that the actual OCHA NORMA then joined in for at the end.

Nakayama’s reign as the Iron Man champion ended not that long after the show had finished. She was approached by Mahiro Kiryu and Shino Suzuki backstage along with the referee Fumirin. Kiryu convinced Nakayama to give up the championship because Nakayama herself does not want to worry about defending the title. However when she declared she was giving up the title, Fumirin noticed she was holding a bottle of ocha tea next to the belt. Fumirin then decided that Nakayama had given up to the ocha tea which means Ocha is now the champion, not Kiryu!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’25”, 09/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
730 Fans
1. Ryo Mizunami, Rika Tatsumi, Chika Nanase & Ren Konatsu defeated Hyper Misao, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Mahiro Kiryu & Mifu Ashida when Tatsumi pinned Ashida with the Twist Of Fate (14:46).
2. 4 Way Tag Match: Mizuki & Suzume defeated Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro and Raku & Pom Harajuku when Suzume pinned Kazashiro with the Ring A Bell (11:09).
3. Hiroyo Matsumoto & Yuki Arai defeated Yuna Manase & Toga when Matsumoto pinned Toga with the Rock Drop (12:21).
4. MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) defeated Viva Van with the Diving Senton (12:58).
*V5 for Shoko Nakajima.
5. International Princess Title: Arisu Endo (c) defeated Uta Takami with the Camel Clutch (11:15).
*V2 for Arisu Endo.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Rika Tatsumi (c) with a Title Belt Strike (1:11 pm).
*Mahiro Kiryu becomes the 1,782nd champion.
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) defeated HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki when Uehara pinned Suzuki with the Sushi Tornado (16:38).
*V2 for Ober Eats.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) defeated J-Rod with the Spinning Tear Drop (12:55).
*V2 for Miu Watanabe.

It’s not often that Miu Watanabe is given a bigger and stronger opponent to fight in Tokyo Joshi Pro but they brought in J-Rod, “The Ultimate Athlete” from America to be that just for her. J-Rod slammed Watanabe around until she found herself getting spun around the ring in the Giant Swing. That cheered Watanabe up into doing a muscle pose but J-Rod Power Bombed that joy out of her. She also hit the Ultimate Spear near the ropes but the time it took to pull Watanabe into the middle of the ring, she was able to recover enough to kick out of the pin. Watanabe countered a second Ultimate Spear into a Power Slam and immediately gave J-Rod the Spinning Tear Drop to get the three count and defend her Princess Of Princess Title. J-Rod looked at the bright side to take the sting out of her defeat. She worked so hard to get a Korakuen Hall main event because she was originally trained in the NJPW Academy by King Haku and his family. She picked up her admiration for Japanese wrestling from them so is very happy to be where she is right now and cannot wait for her next visit.

After the match Watanabe shook off the effects of being slammed by J-Rod and spoke to the fans about wanting to defend the Princess Title many times on the road to next March’s Sumo Hall show. Suzume then entered the ring and congratulated Watanabe on her victory. She said TJPW is the place where you can become whoever you want, like becoming a princess for example. She now wants to shine like Watanabe and has come out to challenge her for the Princess Title! Watanabe was so happy to hear that she started to cry because she thinks she shares many similiarities with Suzume. That then made Suzume start to cry. The two agreed to the match and it will take place at the 4th January Korakuen show!

It was time for Shino Suzuki to stand up for herself against Ober Eats and she was able to get under Wakana Uehara’s skin early. Early in the match Suzuki went into tour guide mode and presented Uehara to the audience as the woman who is going to pass the Princess Tag Team Titles over to Bumping gRitters. Uehara lost her cool and yelled she isn’t giving up the belts before hitting back at Suzuki. Yuki Kamifuku also decided to put her opponents in their place, shouting at them not to underestimate her before she delivered a Double Famouser to the gRitters. Uehara then took over and pinned Suzuki with the Sushi Tornado for a successful title defence. Despite the growing tension brewing between the two teams going into the match, Kamifuku hugged both of her opponents afterwards. Uehara wanted to do the same but Suzuki pushed her away. Backstage Kamifuku spoke highly of HIMAWARI in particular for giving it her all. She said Uehara must have felt like she was on her fourth bowl of curry fighting her. Uehara agreed but added in that she could eat six more. HIMAWARI consoled Suzuki in the meantime and told her they’re not done yet. Suzuki thanked HIMAWARI for teaming with her and her tears are only for today’s frustration. She isn’t going to be broken up over this for long.

By winning the Next Generation Tournament last month Uta Takami made a beeline straight for the International Princess Title held by Arisu Endo. She focused mainly on ways to cradle Endo into pins or attach herself onto her with the Koala Clutch. Endo’s use of Super Kicks and Knee Drops were downgraded when Takami also tried grabbing onto her leg. But Endo found a Breakthrough using the Waterwheel Drop and applied the Camel Clutch to make Takami give up. She describes Takami as being extremely competitive even if her confidence is not always high. She also thinks Takami is good at obeserving how other wrestlers move so she can use that ability to become stronger. As for any future challengers, Endo is feeling invincible right now and can defend the International Princess Title against anybody. Takami said she has definitely grown after her first title match although she isn’t sure what chapter of her story she is at right now. She has a homecoming match coming up soon and even though she won’t go back to Kanazawa as a champion she will be heading over still feeling proud of herself.

More international stakes could be found down the card when Shoko Nakajima had her latest defence of the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title. This time her opponent was Viva Van who was making her return to TJPW for the first time since May (I haven’t paid any attention to if the VPW Women’s Title she won then is still active). The challenger had Nakajima scouted for the most part but when she went to go for the Hellevator, Nakajima escaped and stunned Van with a Hong Kong Spinning Elbow. She then used the Double Arm DDT followed by the Diving Senton to win. She praised Van for being an incredibly versatile wrestler who is capable of anything. She also has a few regrets over losing matches on her recent tour of Mexico so she wants to train more in order to get revenge next time. Van said this isn’t the end because she won’t be giving up. Japan is the start of a world tour she is taking on and she plans on rising to the top!

It is time for another team up between Hiroyo Matsumoto & Yuki Arai. The two of them taking on Hot Shot was also an opportunity for Matsumoto to match up against Yuna Manase while impressing the AKB48 idol Oda Erina over at the commentary table (they knew each other from Tofu Pro Wrestling). Toga was fired up to fight which then made Manase want to take Toga’s Elbow Strike to add extra damage to a Samoan Drop she was giving Matsumoto. Arai came in to give Manase the Scorpion Death Lock while Matsumoto put Toga in a Face Lock. Matsumoto then finished Toga off with the Rock Drop before going over to Erina with Arai to celebrate their victory. They’re now two wins for two as a tag team and already considering whether or not to make the Princess Tag Titles their goal. Toga feels she suffered an even cleaner loss to Matsumoto than she did back at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. Manase told her it was important that they never lost their motivation during the match. Given how insular TJPW is, Toga should never take it for granted when she gets to wrestle people from the outside because it is valuable experience that should not go to waste. Hot Shot will debrief over this and do their best to become champions some day.

A rare 4 Way Tag Match was put together promising a lot of chaos in the ring. Raku & Pom Harajuku formed a giant heart with their arms and used it to trap Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami ring around the rosie style. They then led a large Oyasumi Express where all of the other teams stepped over Yamashita & Toribami. Yuki Aino showed off her power by Side Suplexing both Mizuki & Suzume at the same time. She also briefly joined forces with Raku until Raku turned on her. Everything went mad with one wrestler after another fighting each other ending with Mizuki taking out Yamashita with a Spinning Diving Cross Body. With the ring emptied out, Suzume was able to pin Haru Kazashiro with the Ring A Bell. Harajuku called the match a scary dream so she and Raku should wake up and return to the real world for a bit. Aino thought her team were going to win until the very end but they’ve gained experience so next time they should try doing a 5 Way Tag! Yamashita told Toribami that you need to use your head to win multi-team Tag Matches but neither of them can do that. They have a 3 Way Tag coming up at next week’s SETUP tour of Japan and there will be a championship on the line so they cannot afford to lose. They’ll also be touring Thailand soon so they’re going to dominate over there too. Both Mizuki & Suzume had fun teaming with each other because they were able to move so freely together. Suzume said Mizuki always pushes her forward so that match gave her a lot of courage.

The opening 8-Woman Tag Match was missing a participant because Kira Summer caught a fever and had to miss the show on short notice. Rika Tatsumi, Chika Nanase & Ren Konatsu were told that they would be getting a replacement partner but the team showed up to the match without one. Hyper Misao thought that Tetsuya Koda wasn’t able to find anybody so her own team now had the numbers advantage. But when Misao’s team all put Tatsumi’s team in submission holds while Mifu Ashida was cheerleading around them, Tatsumi called out for “X” to help her. Suddenly the super substitute Ryo Mizunami appeared! She performed her full entrance though so the match continued while she was playing up to the fans. Then when she was finally ready, she couldn’t tell Kakeru Sekiguchi and Mahiro Kiryu apart. Tatsumi overcame an accidental strangulation of Mizunami to pin Ashida with the Twist Of Fate. Mizunami pushed her down after the match and Kiryu ran back into the ring to try and win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Tatsumi but failed when Tatsumi kicked out and ran off.

Then later backstage Tatsumi found who she thought was Kiryu by the stairs. She went over and choked her unconscious only to discover it was actually Sekiguchi she strangled! Kiryu then appeared behind Tatsumi, knocked her out with the Iron Man Title and then pinned her to become the champion again!

It took nine months but Miu Watanabe has regained her spot in Tokyo Joshi Pro as the Princess Of Princess Champion! She was warned by Mizuki not to mess with her and the champ tried to break down Watanabe with big moves like the Cutie Special, the Diving Foot Stomp and the Face Lock. Watanabe’s power became an effective counter through the use of Power Slams and the Giant Swing. She also carried Mizuki up to the top rope so she could Avalanche Power Slam her right back down to the canvas. Mizuki got a nearfall with the Whirling Candy and tried going for the Cutie Special. But Watanabe countered it into a High Angle Tear Drop and then out-grappled her into do a spinning version of the Tear Drop for the victory.

After the match Watanabe said this was her second title match with Mizuki this year and it feels like she’s had her all to herself. There is no other princess like Mizuki because she is kind and considerate so Watanabe is happy to win the belt that Mizuki made shine so brightly. Now as the summer is about to end, Watanabe will make sure the Princess Title will shine even brighter! After she said that, Yuki Aino entered the ring and said the match that just happened was too amazing. She used to consider herself as Watanabe’s rival because they both debuted in the same year but before she knew it Watanabe has gone way ahead of her. Aino wants to have a passionate title match with the new champion to prove her worth. Watanabe said they haven’t fought each other much lately so she would like to see Aino being passionate in the ring up close in person. She accepted the challenge and the match will take place at Korakuen Hall on 18th October. Watanabe can become the Summer princess and Autumn princess all she wants because all Aino is aiming for is to become champion! When Aino left the ring, Watanabe told the fans she will make TJPW become the biggest dreamland in the world!

The Princess Tag Team Titles were on the line in a rematch from Las Vegas but Hyper Misao predicted the outcome would be the same. She then asked Wakana Uehara if she is ok to wrestle after losing a few teeth recently. Uehara defiantly told her she can fight and proved it by pulling out a hamburger and taking a bite out of it! She even decided to bite Shoko Nakajima in the arm later in the match! Kyoraku Kyomei had to go back to their other usual tricks like Misao spraying the other team or crashing her Hypami Mobile into Mahiro Kiryu at ringside. However Yuki Kamifuku proved to be the difference maker. She prevented Nakajima from doing the Locomotion Northern Lights Suplex and instead cut her down with the Diving Famouser to win the match.

Backstage Kamifuku talked about how much she hates competing in important matches like title bouts and tournament finals because they are such hard work. But she didn’t want to let Uehara down and summoned a rebellious spirit to win and look cool towards her partner. She also explained that despite being a regular for TJPW all this time, she’s really been a freelancer wrestling for the company through an entertainment agency. She doesn’t know if she needs to speak to Sanshiro Takagi or Tetsuya Koda about this but now that she’s won a second TJPW championship it is time for her to become a full time member of the company! Uehara said if it wasn’t for Kamifuku, she would have broken down after her injury and wouldn’t be here as a champion right now. Kyoraku Kyomei were hoping to hold the Tag Titles long enough for their annual singles match on 4th January next year. They didn’t underestimate Ober Eats but they admit they fought a version of them they’ve never seen before. Nakajima & Misao lost today so they’ll go become even stronger in ways the other team have never seen before!

Arisu Endo’s smile has grown a little bit wider because she has won the International Princess Title! The vacant belt was up for grabs with Endo having to face Priscilla Kelly instead of her originally opponent Jada Stone. Kelly tried to throw Endo off her game early then switched to being more aggressive as the match went on. Endo wore her down with a Sleeper Hold and a Camel Clutch, keeping her grip on her submission even after Kelly tried to slam her way out of it. Kelly used her own skills with a counter attack that included a Sliding German Suplex and also a Dragon Suplex. But Endo fought her way back with a Thrust Kick that set up the match winning Ju no Okite. Endo joked about how heavy it feels to hold the belt. She is overjoyed that for the first time in her life she won something all by herself. With this belt she hopes to go visit many fun places where she can eat delicious food. Her summer has been scorching hot and she wants it to get even hotter like up to trillions of billions of degrees!

Aino earned her claim for a Princess Title shot by joining the short list of people in TJPW to ever have made Miyu Yamashita submit! Yamashita thought Ryo Mizunami was going to be the big target to break down so she and Kaya Toribami focused their efforts against her. Aino didn’t want to be left out though and made sure to go after Yamashita when Mizunami broke through the other team. Aino dodged Yamashita’s kicks and dropped her backwards with the Venus DDT. Then from there she applied the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire. Mizunami did her best to hold Toribami back and Yamashita had no option but to give up. Backstage Mizunami called Aino amazing for achieving that result with the fire she brought out today. Aino asked her to come back to TJPW again so Yukiniki can team more often. Toribami said she was sure her team would win because she thought she had great chemistry with Yamashita. The two of them also want to keep teaming together so they can get stronger next time.

It was Hiroyo Matsumoto’s first appearance in TJPW and she wasn’t interested in shaking hands with her opponents. Although she did quip out some greetings to Haru Kazashiro & Toga while she was wrestling them. When she wasn’t “making friends” she was aiding Yuki Arai in controlling the match. She grabbed Toga to seperate her from Kazashiro, giving Arai the space to hit her finisher and win. Matsumoto said she couldn’t afford to lose since her team had a master-disciple dynamic. She also wants Arai to tell her all about TJPW, like if Kazashiro & Toga felt scared fighting her? Arai calls Matsumoto the foundation that helped give birth to her wrestling career. She also remembers the two moves Matsumoto taught her for Tofu Pro Wrestling were the Heel Drop and the Back Elbow. She admitted she forgot to do the Back Elbow back then which made Milano Collection A.T. made at Matsumoto. But Arai remembered to do it today! Matsumoto thinks the move should now be named The Back Elbow Dedicated To Milano. As for Kazashiro & Toga, they are feeling completely defeated by fighting and outsider like Matsumoto. But they think it will make them mentally stronger so if she ever returns they will be more ready to stand against her again.

A few small flags were placed in opposite corners for the Flag Scramble Death Match. Rika Tatsumi and Pom Harajuku were tasked with grabbing the other’s flag in order to use a weapon. Tatsumi got one first and after Harjuku chased after her, the weapon was revealed to be a bag of 100 colorful plastic balls. Harajuku scattered the balls everywhere and threw them one by one at her opponent. Tatsumi then grabbed the other flag and the weapon turned out to be a large folding fan. She used it at first but then decided she can win without using any. Harajuku then grabbed a flag and received two mega penlights to use against Tatsumi’s fan. The final flag was captured by Tatsumi which allowed her to use the GM Tetsuya Koda as a weapon! He was relunctantly dragged into the ring and thrown at Harajuku. Tatsumi then jumped off the top rope with the folding fan but hit Koda over the head with it by mistake. Tatsumi grabbed the penlight and charged Harajuku only to get rolled up and pinned for the three count. Harajuku wondered what would happen today but since it was a death match with toys in it she knew she would win because she’s a three year old and toys are for babies! She then pointed out the weapons Tatsumi chose were not toys at all so she was actually lucky to win. Tatsumi couldn’t believe she lost to Harajuku and called it the biggest stain on her life. She blames Koda for this!

HIMAWARI decided to rely on her best weapon to try and beat Aja Kong. That weapon is her long hair braids which she explained she is allowed to use because they are part of her body. But when she charged in to whip them around, Kong held her at a distance by her head and then knocked her down with a slap. Kong then tortured HIMAWARI by pulling at her hair, claiming that she isn’t breaking any rules because she is simply grabbing a part of HIMAWARI’s body. Kong continued to use that loophole by claiming her steel can is a part of her body so she can hit HIMAWARI with it as much as she wants! HIMAWARI tried her best to block the attack but eventually took a blow to the head from it. When Kong went for the Back Drop, HIMAWARI fought her off by using Hair Whips but made the mistake of trying to lift her up for the Princess Drop. Instead Kong gave her a Lariat for a nearfall and then the Back Drop to get the win. She gave HIMAWARI some words of encouragement after the match. Backstage she described how dangerous HIMAWARI’s hair is by comparing it to Acrobatic Silky from Dandadan. She warns the next time they fight she will have to cut it off her head! Meanwhile HIMAWARI is threatening to smash the steel can to bits with her hair!

We have entered into a new era of the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Behold the era of Mahironman! Pokotan entered the Battle Royal first as the defending champion but already suffered a bad omen when the mascot’s head fell off. Then during the match Chika Nanase knocked the head off again causing the faceless mascot to briefly transform into Keiju Muto and pin her with the Shining Wizard. Raku entered the match armed with a pillow and formed a very brief alliance with Pokotan before betraying him. Ram Kaichow then entered the match thinking Pokotan was actually Raku inside the costume. So when the real Raku saw them hugging and dancing together, she attacked both of them with the pillow and pinned Pokotan. However since the pillow was directly on top of Pokotan during the pin, Daisuke Kiso declared Raku’s Pillow was now the champion! The Pillow also eliminated Shino Suzuki when Kira Summer gave her the Samoan Drop with the pillow in between them. Raku eliminated Summer and then patched things up with Kaichow to knock Mifu Ashida out of the ring while Mahiro Kiryu was confused by all of the pillow spots. Kiryu ended up getting Raku to accidentally eliminated Kaichow and then gave her the Spinebuster on top of the pillow for the three count. Kiso ended the match there because he counted the pin on both Raku and the pillow, making Kiryu the new champion! Kiryu would like to welcome all challengers to come fight her for the title but she is feeling tired at the moment and requests to get some rest first. Then when she’s ready people can come challenge her in moderation.

The opening match was filled with kindred spirits in multiple pairings. Suzume was teaming with Ren Konatsu who she inspired to become a pro wrestler. Mei Suruga came over from ChocoPro to team up with Uta Takami and the two of them are as close as sisters given how similar they behave. Plus Suzume and Suruga being in the ring again gave fans a Meibee Surprise reunion. But those two ended up cancelling each other out, leaving Konatsu to duke it out against Konatsu. Suzume made it back in to cut off the Koala Clutch only for Suruga to take her out with a Diving Cross Body. Takami went back to Konatsu with a short range Dropkick before applying the Koala Clutch again, getting the submission win. Takami said her wish came true because she wanted to win with Suruga in Ota Ward. Suruga wished it would have happened under better circumstances since both her and Suzume were recently champions at the same time but they both no longer have any. But she sees how Suzume is looking forward so she will do the same and hopefully some day it will lead them to having a singles match against each other.

Three new trainees were introduced to the fans at the start of the show. They are currently named Shion, Anri and Yuka. All three are currently training with the goal of eventually making their pro debuts.

The first ever TJPW event in Thailand will take place on 13th December! “TJPW LIVE IN BANGKOK” is being held in The Circus Studio with help from SETUP Thailand. Around 10 TJPW wrestlers will be on the show along with wrestlers from the Southeast Asian scene. Pumi Boonyatud the owner of SETUP was in attendance to announce the news.

The next big arena show for TJPW will be happening on 29th March, 2026. It will be “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” and the venue for it is Sumo Hall! By the time it takes place it will be just under two years since TJPW’s previous show in the building.

New merchandise was revealed for TJPW’s collaboration with Katamari Damacy. As part of the campaign, Mizuki and Suzume will attend next weekend’s Tokyo Games Show for an autograph session.

9. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miu Watanabe

Act III begins. Tokyo Joshi Pro’s year long trilogy of major shows held at Ota Ward Gymnasium ends with the sixth annual “WRESTLE PRINCESS” show. And to be honest it’s really just the main event that’s doing a the heavy lifting here. That might end up becoming the payoff of a nine month lone storyline while so much of the rest of the card doesn’t have much to talk about when it comes to the last few months of shows. What it lacks in build it instead makes up for with wrestler relationships past and present. Most of the guests have some sort of association with the wrestlers they will be in the ring with. An injury on short notice also caused a couple of changes the card including one of the championship matches.

1. Suzume & Ren Konatsu Vs Mei Suruga & Uta Takami
The show kicks off with a tag match filled with kindred spirits. Suzume was the inspiration for Ren Konatsu to become a wrestler and it didn’t take long after her debut for the two of them to team up. Meanwhile the two sisters from other misters have found each other again. Mei Suruga & Uta Takami are back together to show that apples and ice cream are for everybody. These four have enough energy by themselves to keep the venue’s power in check for the rest of the show.

2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Staggered Entry Battle Royal: Pokotan (c) Vs Raku Vs Mahiro Kiryu Vs Shino Suzuki Vs Mifu Ashida Vs Kira Summer Vs Chika Nanase Vs Ram Kaichow
I might be wrong but ever since the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title got its new belt it feels like the championship has spent more time out of DDT than in it. It’s been hovering near TJPW for over a month now and they seem to like holding the Battle Royal on their undercard. The DDT mascot Pokotan is currently the champion and must fight off seven opponents to survive another day. Not a lot has changed with the usual crew of opponents getting involved. Mahiro Kiryu is still apologetic, Shino Suzuki has her Up Up Girls duties, Mifu Ashida really likes using the Y-Shaped Guillotine in her matches, Kira Summer got to wrestle in Malaysia recently and Chika Nanase is adapting to more of a gal style for her appearance. The wild card is Ram Kaichow. Just like last time she is a late entry to the match and TJPW is anticipating she will pull off a plan to win the championship before the match even starts again. I assume Raku will be glad to help her with that once more.

3. Aja Kong Vs HIMAWARI
I have worked out one realistic way for HIMAWARI to win this match. She will have a chance if she can travel back in time to 1987 so she can claim seniority over a rookie Aja Kong and therefore win via the senpai-kohai pattern of Japanese wrestling booking. Otherwise she’s boned. Those hair whips are not going to do a thing against Kong’s steel can. Even when Kong is having a good day she will still whack someone over the head with one of those things.

4. Flag Scramble Weapon Death Match: Rika Tatsumi Vs Pom Harajuku
Okay this was not in the plans at all. Rika Tatsumi’s original match got pulled because her opponent was bumped up to one of the title matches so instead of fighting the woman who licked her face that one time seven years ago, she now has to babysit Pom Harajuku. It’s bad enough trying to chase Harajuku around but she also usually finds ways to try and trap Tatsumi out of venues so she can almost win by countout. That might not happen here because special rules are being applied to make up for the match change.
Both wrestlers will start the match with a flag in their corner of the ring. If you steal your opponent’s flag you will be allowed to choose one of two pre-determined weapons to use for the rest of the match. What these weapons will be we just have to wait and see. It’s just two weapons though so it will only take both flags being captured for both weapons to come into play. Will Tatsumi bring her sasumata pole back? Can Harajuku wheel in a gacha machine again like she did in Texas? Is Yukinori Matsui going to be the ref so he has to deal with this silliness with that tired look on his face?

5. Hiroyo Matsumoto & Yuki Arai Vs Haru Kazashiro & Toga
Welcome “Lady Destroyer” to TJPW! Hiroyo Matsumoto goes way back with Yuki Arai by being one of her coaches for Tofu Pro Wrestling from 2018. It gives Arai something to bounce back from after losing in the main event of her previous Ota Ward appearance. The young team of Haru Kazashiro & Toga have been chosen to be their opponents. Toga is excited to fight Matsumoto head on and is even confident she can knock her down with her Elbow Strike. Although her new friend Yuna Manase warned Toga she better go all out to stand a chance against Matsumoto.

6. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami Vs Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino
It’s a Yukiniki reunion! None of Ryo Mizunami’s previous visits to TJPW this year had anything to do with Yuki Aino so it’s nice to finally see them back together after being apart for this long. The highlight of Aino’s year so far was becoming the main character of the third annual “HYPE!” show (and its director’s cut) which again begs the question, has she finally figured out how to take the next step up the card yet? Maybe it’s for the best that Yukiniki stick together because Aino’s best work is as a tag wrestler.
Their opponents aren’t much of a solid team yet but maybe there’s something to be found with this pairing. Miyu Yamashita might be heading into a new stage of her career as TJPW’s first “Leader” of the locker room. She’s out of the title picture and no longer has Maki Itoh to work off of in the company. However she sees potential in Kaya Toribami and wants to see for herself what the masked woman can unleash in the ring. Toribami is getting more confident which is also opening up more opportunities for her. Like getting slapped in the chest by Mizunami a lot. Gotta fly through that fire eventually, bird.

7. International Princess Title Match: Arisu Endo Vs Priscilla Kelly
Can we get Poison Sawada JULIE to take a look at the International Princess Title belt because this championship is back to being cursed again. In a sad turn of events, Moka Miyamoto’s title reign couldn’t even get out of the starting blocks because as soon as she won it at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” she then fell ill and had to take time off for treatment. When it became clear that whatever it is she’s been dealing with was keeping her out of action for the long term, the title was vacated. A new champion will have to be crowned at Ota Ward.
I though TJPW’s two choices for the title match was a good piece of booking. On one side was Arisu Endo who is in the middle of a breakout run that included reaching the final of this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. She is also the tag team partner of the previous champion Suzume. Endo’s opponent would be Jada Stone, the American who fought Suzume in a neat two match series over the title during the year but couldn’t win the belt in either match. That’s an intriguing pairing to me. Then earlier this week Stone posted the bad news that she suffered a knee injury and had to cancel her next tour of Japan to go get an MRI scan.
So plans for the IP Title had to change again. Endo is still in the match and now her opponent is going to be Priscilla Kelly. It’s been over seven years since Kelly had her couple of tours with TJPW. Endo wasn’t around for that so I hope those who were have given her fair warning of what to expect. WWE didn’t change her that much when she was Gigi Dolin over there. Kelly is also starting to build up her own little collection of championships on the American indies. She hasn’t been shy about taking pictures of herself about to lick the belts in victory. Will this be the next fate for the IP Title?

8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara
Terry Funk ain’t wear no mouthpiece and neither does Wakana Uehara.
The last time Kyoraku Kyomei defended the Princess Tag Team Titles against Ober Eats was in Las Vegas back in April. At the time Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara had only just begun teaming and couldn’t match the many years of chemistry that only a kaiju and a superhero could produce together. Shoko Nakajima in particular is having a heck of a year. Not only is she keeping up to her usual level on TJPW shows, she also went and took over MLW’s women’s division in America. To help build up to this match, Nakajima even defended the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title against Kamifuku in Texas just last week. Her message going into this match is loud and clear. You won’t win if you can’t bite like a kaiju!
An injury robbed us of a clever match buildup because while Nakajima and Kamifuku were fighting over a championship in America, TJPW was going to have Hyper Misao face Wakana Uehara on the same day back in Japan. The booking made sense given that Ober Eats earned their rematch thanks to Uehara pinning Misao in an 8-Woman Tag involving the two teams. It felt like a kick in the teeth when the singles match had to be pulled because that’s exactly what happened. Misao accidentally knocked out one of Uehara’s front teeth with a Kingslayer Jumping Knee Strike during a match. Uehara hadn’t wrestled since and has been using the time off to charge herself up for the title bout in between her visits to the dentist.
This is where TJPW is different from a lot of other pro wrestling companies. Normally an injury like this is ripe to build up heat and maybe even lead to a revenge angle at the end of the match as a payoff. But TJPW is not that kind of wrestling promotion. As Misao explained with a tweet after the match, inflicting injuries is not a badge of honour here. This also isn’t the place to where wrestlers are motivated to take an eye for an eye (or a tooth for a tooth). With that being said I bet it will feel pretty sweet for Uehara if she can pin Misao with a Jackknife Pin for the three count again, this time to win the tag titles. It’s a pair of belts that have evaded Kamifuku for as long as both have existed in wrestling.

9. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miu Watanabe
Something that TJPW’s 2025 should be remembered for is the story arc of Mizuki Vs Miu Watanabe. It’s been a tale of princesses and monsters often with the roles being merged together. When the year began, Watanabe was the Princess Of Princess Champion who became so dominant that she was accused of becoming the kind of monster she had to beat to win the prize in the first place. Then on 4th January Mizuki entered the story as the hero slaying the “Monster” to win the title as the true “Princess” she is. As the months progressed, Mizuki held onto the belt with two title defences in Ota Ward along with a successful defence in Las Vegas inbetween. She can make it a hat trick of Ota Ward title defences that can turn this reign into the most defining singles run of her career.
While all of that was going on for the rabbit, the monster had to lick her wounds and go find the princess she knew was inside of her. That journey of discovery took place over the summer where Watanabe won the Tokyo Princess Cup, a tournament that slipped through her fingers three years earlier. With that hole in her heart finally patched up, Watanabe found her glow up and is now ready to have the title rematch with Mizuki. Some hints have been dropped along the way from Mizuki noticing her opponent becoming more Cinderella-like to Watanabe literally tripping out of her shoe and leaving it behind while she was exiting an interview. Just like how some bedtime stories go, it will take a magical Tear Drop to turn the monster into a princess so she can live happily ever after. Hang on, isn’t Mizuki supposed to be the princess in this story? She’s not going to give up that cushy gig without a fight!

9. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Miu Watanabe
The full card for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” was announced earlier today although there might be an addition or two still to come. We have Ryo Mizunami returning to Tokyo Joshi Pro after not appearing here all summer. She is teaming up with Yuki Aino again to bring Yukiniki back together. And just like how Mizunami sees potential in Aino, Miyu Yamashita is starting to take Kaya Toribami under her wing as a tag partner too. So let’s set the two teams against each other.
TJPW welcomes Hiroyo Matsumoto into the fold for the first time. They also explained why she is teaming up with Yuki Arai. Eight years ago there was a TV show called Tofu Pro Wrestling that included a few live wrestling events featuring a lot of AKB48 connected talent. Arai took part under the name Bubbly Arai and Matsumoto was one of her trainers behind the scenes. Now eight years later they finally get together in the ring for a real pro wrestling match this time. Haru Kazashiro & Toga have been chosen to be their opponents.
There was only one previous time when Rika Tatsumi and Priscilla Kelly were in the same match together and that was back in 2018. Are the two prepared to discover how different they have both become since that match? Tatsumi vaguely remembers being licked last time. If Kelly tries that again she’s probably going to get strangled!
Over the last two months the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title has been hanging around TJPW like a roommate who doesn’t pay rent and has nothing better to do. Pokotan the DDT mascot is currently the champion but it will be at this show ready to defend the title in a Battle Royal. There are seven other participants in the match but TJPW may add more in the lead up to the show. Also if Pokotan loses the title to someone not in the match before then, then the match will still take place with nothing on the line.
Oh no the two brats are back together! Mei Suruga is happy to be Uta Takami’s big sister again but they still need to come up with a tag team name. Neither Super Cute Sisters or Apple Ice Cream made the cut last year. Ren Konatsu already got to team with her idol Suzume but let’s see if they get along while having to deal with the other two troublemakers.
