After some messaging back and forth, Atsushi Onita and NOSAWA Rongai agreed to make the main event a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match. This is going to be odd because at one point they promised no crowd brawling on the show because the Coronavirus limitations wouldn’t let them do it. The entire point of a Scramble Bunkhouse Death Match is wrestlers charging through the crowd down to the ring when the match begins!

That was a long stretch of tournament shows we just had. There is a couple of days rest for Tokyo Joshi Pro before they hold the Tokyo Princess Cup quarter finals. Last year’s winner Mizuki faces the most recent Princess Title challenger Yuki Aino. The last remaining Up Up Girls member in the competition Miu Watanabe takes on Maki Itoh. Over on the other side of the bracket, Natsumi Maki and Shoko Nakajima promises to be frantic. Finally Miyu Yamashita’s meets the biggest reminder of her Princess Cup curse. Hyper Misao’s upset over Yamashita back in 2016 is what cemented this jinx in the first place. But did Misao use up all her luck knocking out Yuka Sakazaki?
DDT “BON DEMONE, ATASHA KAMISAMADA YO 2020”, 15/08/2020
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall
1. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita & Yukio Naya Vs Chris Brookes, Makoto Oishi & Mizuki Watase

Over in DDT they have a non-tournament show to get through on the same day. Nautilus have to shake off their eliminations and focus on defending the KO-D Tag Team Titles. The undercard has a few previews of next week’s big matches too.
DDT “BLACK OUT PRESENTS KING OF DDT 2020 FINAL!!”, 23/08/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
0. Under Match – 3 Way Tag Match: Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda & Keigo Nakamura Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Yukio Naya

6. King Of DDT 2020 – Final: X Vs X
The King Of DDT is down to Tetsuya Endo, Kazusada Higuchi, Akito and T-Hawk. The winner headlines “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” at Ota Ward Gymnasium in November. Endo has different connections with the rest of the final four. He feuded with Higuchi throughout the DDT TV SHOW series earlier this year. He was beaten in the 1st Round by Akito but was rescued from elimination by winning the Dramatic Chance Battle Royal. And his partnership with T-Hawk is the origin of the DAMNHEARTS business alliance. Akito wants revenge on T-Hawk after he lost to him at “JUDGEMENT 2019” in Sumo Hall last February.
BAKUHA KOSHIEN “STREET FIGHT CLUB”, 25/08/2020

3. STREET FIGHT CLUB Special Match ~Royal Traditions Match~: Jun Akiyama Vs Yukio Naya
4. Street Fight 6-Man Tag Match: Atsushi Onita, Yuko Miyamoto & Rocky Kawamura Vs Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Kaz Hayashi
Atsushi Onita got the toughest competition to fight his crew in the main event. Sugiura-gun from NOAH are entering the STREET FIGHT CLUB! Onita and Takashi Sugiura had a little death match feud half a decade ago that never really went anywhere. Might as well rekindle it because 2020 is weird enough to make it happen. There is also the two unusual joshi offshoots Gake no Fuchi Joshi and Pocchari Joshi getting paired against each other.
BASARA “BASARA 131 ~BANQUET~”, 25/08/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Daiki Shimomura
In the main event of the last BASARA show, Daiki Shimomura pinned Fuminori Abe to win the 8-Man Tag Team Elimination Match. That grants him a shot at the Union MAX Title. Abe quickly bounced back from that result two days later by winning the BJW Tag Team Titles with Takuya Nomura so he is now a double champion.

5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Hagane Shinno
Two Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title matches have been made for the rest of the summer. First up Keisuke Ishii defends against Hagane Shinno, a former champion who pinned him in yesterday’s main event. Shinno’s history with the title was brief but important. As Madoka, he fought Kota Ibushi for the title when it was revived back in 2007. He lost to Ibushi then but won the title from him a year later. Sadly, Madoka was beaten by Makoto Oishi in his first defence and he never won it back. He’s had two attempts since then. This will be his third.
Yuna Manase was offered to regularly wrestle in Ganbare☆Wrestling. She isn’t able to decide yet because she is still working for Tokyo Joshi Pro for another two weeks. But she at least wants to make another appearance. We may find out her future by the time this show takes place.
The 24th and 28th SWS Triple Crown Champions collide when Shinchiro Tominaga faces Shin Suzuki in a battle of Student Wrestling prodigies.

Yesterday was eventful for HARASHIMA. He is normally a very private person away from wrestling but he announced he recently got married! Oh and yesterday was also his 46th birthday. Again, information that wasn’t publicly known until now. So yeah, things are going swell for him at the moment.

6. Union MAX Title: Fuminori Abe (c) Vs Isami Kodaka
It’s been very quiet on the BASARA front for the last few weeks. They haven’t been posting much news on their website. Instead their priority was running the Clutch bar in Shinjuku. Well this week they have plenty to talk about. The Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament is coming back but first they have a Banquet show to get through. The IRON FIST TAG Titles match is now also a Pro Wrestling Trial with Ryuchi Sekine going to court.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~”, 23/07/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Aona Debut Match: Aona Vs X
2. Himawari Unagi Return Match: Himawari Unagi Vs X
3. Yuna Manase Regular Participation Last Match: Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Maki Itoh Vs Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Natsumi Maki
4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
5. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Yuki Aino
Yuki Aino won the No. 1 Contender match to earn the Princess Of Princess Title shot. Beating Yuka Sakazaki for the title would be a tremendous way to cap off the last few months for her.
What a powerful force Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao can be together. The kaiju and superhero might be the strongest combination around to take the Princess Tag Titles from Daydream.
Yuna Manase has decided to end her regular participation with Tokyo Joshi Pro on 23rd July. Manase has been wrestling for TJPW since 2017 and in the last year reached several achievements. She made it to the final of the Tokyo Princess Cup and won the International Princess Title. However she couldn’t win the Princess Cup final and failed to defend the International Title even once. Her wrestling career began in Stardom, went to Actwres girl’Z and ended up in TJPW. All three companies mean a lot to Manase so she spoke to Rossy Ogawa, Tetsuya Koda and Keiji Sakaguchi before making this decision. She does not want to quit pro wrestling but she understands she is in the latter stages of her career. The time has come for her to try something new yet she hasn’t decided on what her future will be past the 23rd.

7. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
I don’t know what goes on in Shinya Aoki’s mind. He chose Maku Donaruto as his next DDT Extreme Title challenger. What must he be thinking to do with him?
Akiyama-gun have been training for the 8-Man Tag against ALL OUT. Their latest session also included Yukio Naya and Keigo Nakamura as sparring partners. Hideki Okatani said he is learning a lot of details from Jun Akiyama in a way that is different from when he was a trainee. Mizuki Watase said he would like to use the Front Neck Lock the same way Akiyama does it. Makoto Oishi is also eager to wrestle like his coach does. Akiyama joked that the entire group is cohesive except for Oishi. One last thing, Akiyama-gun are looking for an official unit name and have asked fans to come out with one. They will pick a name in time for the Korakuen Hall show.

The annual BASARA Vs Dove Pro summer feud gets even spicier this year with the addition of the Heaven Summit ~Itadaki~ tournament! Itadaki is the yearly tournament to determine BASARA’s strongest wrestler. The inclusion of Dove Pro this year gives them their own name to use, the Heaven Summit ~Choten~. The end result is two tournaments being merged together. The first two rounds will be held on BASARA shows and the final rounds are on a Dove Pro show.

DDT “CHRIS BROOKES PRODUCE SHOW – SHINKIBA NO FANS EXTRAVAGANZA #1”, 06/07/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
0 Fans
1. Chris Brookes defeated Miyu Yamashita with the Praying Mantis Bomb (19:42).
2. SUPER HARDCORE HARDCORE MATCH: Drew Parker defeated Shunma Katsumata with the Swanton Bomb (18:11).
What are you doing reading this? The show was almost entirely in English, you don’t need to be here!
The show began with “CDK” in the ring welcoming the viewers. “Chris Brookes” & “Masahiro Takanashi” promoted the two matches in flawless English.
Despite this show being produced by Brookes, he was in the opener instead of the main event. He promised months ago to hunt chins in DDT so he was fighting the biggest chin of all, Miyu Yamashita! The match began with Mr. HAKU and Shota on the commentary call. Yamashita got some early kicks in but Brookes took control when he threw her arm into the ring post and then whipped her into the Shin-Kiba 1st RING shutter gate. Brookes also hit a big Double Arm Suplex from the top rope. Yamashita took hard chops from Brookes but kept him at bay with Middle Kicks and a High Kick. She then escaped from the Praying Mantis Bomb and rocked Brookes with the Skull Kick to make it an even playing field. Brookes kicked out of a German Suplex and turned the tables with a Tombstone nearfall. Yamashita avoided the Praying Mantis Bomb again and tried another Skull Kick but Brookes met her with a Jumping Knee Strike. Brookes then hit the Praying Mantis Bomb for the win. The two shook hands after the match. In his post-match interview, Brookes noticed calls on Twitter for Yamashita to challenge for the DDT UNIVERSAL Title. He said in his interview that there is no reason for DDT to refuse it. Brookes is happy to defend the belt against women and he’s sure the fans will support that idea.
What makes the main event a SUPER HARDCORE HARDCORE MATCH? Well Shunma Katsumata showed up in his Super Hardcore form and Drew Parker was also in a violent mood when he assaulted “Takanashi” backstage before the match. Katsumata was quick to attack Parker with the Lego covered baseball bat. He ordered the shutter door to open up while he attacked Parker outside the ring. The two climbed on top of a van parked outside and Parker did a Russian Leg Sweep onto the roof. Parker then followed up by climbing a nearby scaffold and diving onto Parker and Keigo Nakamura. The match then went SUPER HARDCORE back inside when Katsumata stapled Parker’s lip to the ring apron! Parker got a little revenge when he threw Katsumata into a castle of chairs. He continued the chair assault inside the ring until Katsumata Dropkicked the chairs into him. That’s when a buckets of lego and gashapon toys were emptied across the ring. After some painful slams onto the toys, Parker brought in a ladder and climbed it only to get a Sunset Flip Power Bomb to the canvas. Katsumata piled chairs onto Parker and hit the Stuka Splash for a two count. Katsumata climbed the corner again but Parker stopped him by pressing bamboo skewers into his forehead! Parker was left in pain from his own doing when he missed a Swanton Bomb and also the table Katsumata rolled off of. Back in the ring Katsumata was hit with chairs and his only reaction was to give Parker the middle finger. Parker gave him a Piledriver for a close nearfall. He then finished him off with the Swanton Bomb. The two butted their fists together after the match.
The second half of the show was an interview HAKU held with Brookes and Parker. Brookes explained that Sanshiro Takagi wanted him to produce a show for the international DDT fans. Brookes made the matches based on who the fans on social media like as well as providing matches that DDT had never booked before. Also Parker is Brookes’ mate. They talked about how much Katsumata loves wrestling in hardcore matches. Brookes said Yamashita was the first wrestler from Tokyo Joshi Pro he was aware of because she visited England for a match one year ago. He felt she was the best fit out of Tokyo Joshi to be his opponent today. There was a confession that the show was deliberately named “SHINKIBA NO FANS EXTRAVAGANZA #1” because Brookes wants to hold more shows in the future. HAKU asked about potential guests for those shows and Brookes was surprised to see Takagi consider all of his ideas instead of shooting them down for being unrealistic. Finally, Parker impersonated Daisuke Sekimoto during a story about Sekimoto’s taste in women told through broken English.

6. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
Yuki Ueno gets a second crack at winning the KO-D Openweight Title from Tetsuya Endo. His first try was a failed Right To Challenge cash in on DDT TV SHOW two weeks ago. Since then Ueno pinned Endo in a KO-D Tag Team Titles defence to shoot him right back into championship contention.
Eruption said they would accept any challengers for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles. That includes if the challenge comes from somebody they beat on a regular basis. However Antonio Honda has some strong allies this time. Riho returns to DDT for the first time since “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019” and HARASHIMA tags along for a new task to overcome.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “KOKO NI IRUZEE!”, 20/06/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
142 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Mizuki defeated Sena Shiori with the Cutie Special (6:28).
2. Hikari Noa defeated Haruna Neko with the Uranage (5:44).
3. Miyu Yamashita & Yuna Manase defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Yamashita pinned Misao with the Skull Kick (0:58).
3a. Rematch: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita & Yuna Manase when Misao pinned Yamashita with La Magistral Cradle (8:38).
4. Maki Itoh, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume when Itoh submitted Suzume with the Itoh Deluxe (13:14).
5. Natsumi Maki defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Backlash (7:01).
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi when Aino pinned Maiumi with the Venus DDT (15:44).
Yuki Aino challenged Yuka Sakazaki for the Princess Of Princess Title after the main event. She explained she thought progress would come slowly but she recently learned in pro wrestling you have to be sudden. So she wants to test her strength against the champion for the belt. Suddenly Yuki Kamifuku Dropkicked Aino and grabbed the microphone. She wants to challenge Sakazaki first. Sakazaki said she is happy to see so many girls in Tokyo Joshi Pro aiming to become the champion. But Aino and Kamifuku will have to fight each other to get the next shot. Their match will happen on 4th July at Ryogoku KFC Hall.
Natsumi Maki had her first match back in three months, winning against Mahiro Kiryu. She wants to wrestle matches that will give her enough energy to challenge for any of the three Tokyo Joshi championships. She also tried to paint “Poi” on her cheek but used a mirror so it ended up looking like “109”. It’s something a little different she wanted to do now she is back.
In a preview of their Princess Tag Team Titles match, Maki Itoh & Raku were on the winning side against the champions. Itoh shouted threats to Daydream afterwards. Pom Harajuku had to pull her away from them.
The Backspin Kick Miyu Yamashita uses to great effect is now called the Skull Kick. She used it to pin Hyper Misao to ended their tag match in under a minute. Misao’s plan was to make Yamashita dance to “Genghis Khan” and it worked until Yamashita kicked her. They agreed to an immediate rematch. This time Misao blinded Yamashita with cold spray and stole the win with La Magistral Cradle.
TJPW trainee Aona will have her debut match on the 23rd July Korakuen Hall show. She was originally supposed to have her match on 3rd May before the show was cancelled.
