5. Mizuki & Suzume defeated Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida when Suzume pinned Ashida with the Ring A Bell (10:08).
6. Shoko Nakajima, Miyu Yamashita & Toga defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro when Nakajima pinned Kazashiro with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:31).
7. Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Arisu Endo defeated HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami when Kamifuku pinned Suzuki with the Famouser (14:36).

In a meeting of champions against challengers, Ober Eats along with Arisu Endo showed it will take some beating for them to lose their titles. Bumping gRitters & Uta Takami all found themselves needing to go back to the drawing board after today. Yuki Kamifuku rubbed it in after winning by telling HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki they showed no signs that they will win the Princess Tag Team Titles next weekend. She would rather wait until they level up to do the match. Wakana Uehara said she really doesn’t want to lose to her classmates and wants to show that having this title means she is a step ahead of them. Endo was polite towards Takami and told her she is looking forward to their International Princess Title match. Kamifuku then stepped in and told Takami to stop being a crying brat. It wasn’t until the other team left ringside that Kamifuku admitted she was actually feeling really sore from fighting them and was using her best poker face to act otherwise. Backstage Bumping gRitters were at a loss for words over how unprepared they are to face Ober Eats. Takami though is happy to see Endo is paying attention to her.

“The Ultimate Athlete” J-Rod made her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut by defeating Kira Summer in quick fashion. She returned to ringside later in the show to watch Miu Watanabe’s match up close. That match was also Shoko Nakajima’s first appearance back from her tour of Mexico. She picked up the win for her team while Watanabe locked eyes with J-Rod while she was walking back to the locker room. After finally getting to see her in person, Watanabe said J-Rod has the strength needed to get a title shot straight away. She’s not going to let J-Rod’s intimidation tactics get to her. J-Rod bragged to the backstage reporters about being “The Ultimate Athlete”, said Watanabe will be her next victim and she will become the first American Princess Of Princess Champion!

Pom Harajuku came up with a plan to beat Rika Tatsumi for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. She knows that Tatsumi does not want to fight and risk losing the belt before next month’s OCHA NORMA show, so Harajuku agreed to leave the ring and go home. Tatsumi then left the ring, unaware that Harajuku quietly walked back out and encouraged Daisuke Kiso to count Tatsumi out! The plan almost worked but Tatsumi heard Rise Shirai’s count announcement over the microphone and returned to the ring just in time to keep the match going. The two fought out of the ring again and Harajuku tried to take Tetsuya Koda hostage. Tatsumi said she doesn’t care what happens to him and started to strangle Harajuku. Koda pulled her away and put her in a Sleeper Hold to try and win the Iron Man Title but Tatsumi broke out of it and started to strangle him too. Tatsumi was able to make Harajuku give up to the Dragon Sleeper back inside the ring so she is pleased to get her win back from “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. She isn’t going to forgive Koda anytime soon though.

Raku & Ren Konatsu came up with a plan for their match too. While Hyper Misao was doing her usual ring introductions, the two of them snuck out of the ring and hid themselves from view, leaving behind two of Konatsu’s little sheep plushies laying on Raku’s pillow. Both Misao & Kaya Toribami were tricked into thinking their opponents had fallen asleep and somehow turned into toys! They tried to pin the toys anyway but Raku & Konatsu then rolled them up from behind for a double nearfall.


BASARA “BASARA 291 ~KOO~” Results

October 31, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 291 ~KOO~”, 31/10/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ken Ohka & Shota Kawakami defeated Takeru Inoue & Yasu Urano when Ohka pinned Inoue with the Flame Spear (11:35).
2. SAGAT, Minoru Fujita & Lil’ Kraken defeated Gouma Ryu, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Kraken pinned Ryu with the Hurricane Driver (9:13).
3. Grace Project Sponsored Match: Toru Sugiura, Tomoya Hirata & Captain Grace defeated Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato & Daiki Shimomura when Hirata pinned Kazato with the Tower Hacker Bomb (9:24).
4. Hardcore Tag Match: Takumi Tsukamoto & Masashi Takeda defeated Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA when Tsukamoto pinned Sekine with the Zudon onto the Chairs (13:26).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda (c) defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Honda submitted Nakano with an Arm Bar (15:37).
*V2 for MJ2.
6. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with the V Slider (15:42).
*V4 for Ryota Nakatsu.

The big move Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi kept trying to use in the Union MAX Title bout was the Perfect Plex. It took him several attempts to pull it off against Ryota Nakatsu but when it finally hit it wasn’t enough to pin the champion. Nakatsu brought in a counter attack that took Hiroshi’s energy away. But rather than finish him immediately, Nakatsu gave Hiroshi one last chance to fight back. Hiroshi hit him with a Knuckle Punch but had nothing left to give so Nakatsu gave him the V Slider and pinned him for three. Nakatsu praised Hiroshi for his passion and leaving his feelings all out in the ring. When he started to talk about his next title defence, Ken Ohka entered the ring chanting the number “4642” over and over. Ohka told Nakatsu that number is how many days its been since he left Union Pro Wrestling back on 13th February, 2013! Not a day has gone by without Ohka remembering Union Pro and the only thing left around that represents it is the Union MAX Title. As a Union original that belt has Ohka’s name on it which means he deserves to have it! Nakatsu accepted his challenge for 18th November.

The Iron Fist Tag Team Titles remain with MJ2 after Kengo Mashimo & Ayumu Honda defeated Aijin Tag. Mashimo and Masato Kamino took each other out so the finish came down to Honda against Takato Nakano. Honda countered a roll up into an Arm Bar and increased the pressure by clutching onto Nakano’s leg. Nakano wouldn’t give up but the referee had to stop the match in MJ2’s favour. After the match Kyu Mogami spoke on behalf of his stablemates and said the next Iron Fist Tag Titles defence will happen at a 2AW show in Yokohama Radiant Hall on 15th November. Daiki Shimomura & Lil’ Kraken ended up confronting MJ2 backstage later to challenge them at that show.

Gouma Ryu will be taking a break from wrestling for a few months to focus on other priorities in his career. Today was his last match in BASARA for the time being until he returns.

9. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Kaisei Takechi Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Takeshi Masada
10. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (K/c) Vs Minoru Suzuki (U/c)

There was a press conference held in Tokyo today where wrestlers from the three title matches all gave comments and interacted with their opponents. Minoru Suzuki told reporters that he feels like he is finally reaching the pinnacle of DDT and wants to enjoy the experience because it feels like a new beginning for him. Yuki Ueno said the strongest wrestlers in the world are those who live their lives the way they want and Suzuki does that the most. Ueno wants to live freely like he does and believes taking the DDT Universal Title from him while also protecting the KO-D Openweight Title will help him move towards his goal. But after their interviews were over, the two had a staredown and Suzuki attacked Ueno with a chair! He targeted Ueno’s leg and grabbed the limb in a Heel Hold until the two were pulled apart from each other.

A scheduling conflict meant Team 200kg could not attend the press conference but they sent a message to be read out to the other wrestlers in the KO-D Tag Team Titles 3 Way Match. Chihiro Hashimoto wants Yuki Iino to remember all of the times she Suplexed him around the ring while Yuu warns Yukio Naya that she will come flying out of the sky and flatten him! Iino lost his temper and wanted to go searching for Hashimoto until the others all calmed him down. KANON said he and MAO haven’t won the tag titles together yet so he wants to get the belts and raise the status of Strange Love Connection. MAO also talked about how much KANON has grown ever since he was kicked out of DAMNATION T.A. MAO also wants the match to be so intense it will destroy the ring and make things difficult for everyone wrestling after them. He isn’t trying to destroy Sumo Hall itself though, just cause enough mayhem to beat The Apex and Team 200kg.

During his DDT Extreme Title reign To-y has been establishing himself as a gambler so he wanted to gamble the right to choose the match stipulation with his four opponents. They all played a game of Chinchiro and Super Sasadango Machine ended up being the winner. He decided to pick a stipulation that will remove everyone’s eyesight so the 5 Way will now be a Blindfold Death Match! He explained how important eyesight is for wrestlers and how if you take that away, all of their training will go to waste. Sasadango however never trains so wrestling blind isn’t going to make a difference to him as far as he’s concerned. Everyone else though will be dragged down to his level. Akito said the match will prove who truly deserves the Extreme Title the most. Kazuki Hirata doesn’t mind because he still gets to bully To-y and possibly be rewarded for it. Antonio Honda is excited because he has the most experience out of all of them when it comes to wrestling blindfolded and has the advantage of being a pioneer with the gimmick. To-y believes even when blind he sees everything with his heart so he is going to show the old timers what a modern Extreme Champion is like!

So it turns out Danshoku Dieno isn’t ready yet to return to the ring. After he got surgery for acute appendicitis, he ended up developing an intra-abdominal abscess that will take some time for him to recover from. His match with Daisuke Sasaki has been cancelled and DDT went to find a new opponent for Sasaki. They went with AMAKUSA from NOAH, which is a fitting decision because he and Sasaki were each other’s opponents in their debut match just a little over 20 years ago! The wrestler once known as Yuki Sato went through a couple of reinventions over the years before becoming the Jr. Heavyweight missionary you see in NOAH today. He has no memory of his time spent with Sasaki back in SUPER CREW so it will be like they are facing each other for the very first time all over again.

Shoko Nakajima returns from her tour of Mexico.

The era of Mahironman has come to a close. Now it is Rika Tatsumi who holds the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title and her goal is to gift the championship to Natsume Nakayama, her favorite member of OCHA NORMA. She doesn’t want to fight anyone or go through any risk of losing the belt until then but she has to fight Pom Harajuku later this week, regardless of if she is the champion or not.

With the dust settled from the Next Generation Tournament, the winner Uta Takami has come out of it challenging Arisu Endo for the International Princess Title. Takami explained that the small wrestlers like Endo have become the most influential for her when it comes to the kind of wrestler she wants to become. On the other side, Endo is excited to fight the current version of Takami.

The team of HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki had to repeat their new team name because everywhere got it slightly wrong yesterday. Their name is Bumping gRitters but they didn’t say it clear enough over the microphone so everyone, including the official social media pages thought it was Bumping gRittes without the ‘r’ at the end.

Earlier in the week Tetsuya Koda tweeted about the Next Generation Tournament final and compared it to the Pacific League Climax Series that is currently going on. Uta Takami is the Fukuoka SoftBank Hawks who already started the series with a one win advantage and had taken the early lead at that point while Chika Nanase is the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters who needed to make a big comeback to keep the series going. It’s been a few days since that tweet was put out there and the Hawks ended up winning the series, so things are looking good for Takami.

10. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (K/c) Vs Minoru Suzuki (U/c)

Just like that we have the entire lineup for Sumo Hall next month. Konosuke Takeshita wanted Kazusada Higuchi to be in his tag match so Kaisei Takechi asked for Takeshi Masada to be Higuchi’s tag partner. Danshoku Dieno is feeling like a new person after getting surgery but doesn’t understand that his match with Daisuke Sasaki is the rematch of an infamous Sumo Hall main event they had together back on 2018. The KO-D Tag Titles match doesn’t just have The Apex and Strange Love Connection involved. Team 200kg from Sendai Girls are included as well to make it a Survival 3 Way Match.

DDT “RYOGOKU AFTER ~IT’S A WONDERFUL BATTLE~”, 06/11/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Antonio Honda

Shortly after Sumo Hall, Takeshita is sticking around for a few more DDT dates. One of them is to have a singles match with Antonio Honda, his old pal and mentor from Happy Motels.

DDT “TONKOTSU SUPLEX”, 08/11/2025
ACROS Fukuoka Event Hall

1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Daisuke Sasaki & Ilusion Vs MAO, KANON & Kazuma Sumi

After that he teams up with DAMNATION T.A again. Sasaki started respecting Takeshita when he turned heel in AEW and left The 37KAMIINA in DDT so he must really look up to him now that he won the IWGP World Heavyweight Title.

DDT “KUMAMOTO WARRIORS”, 09/11/2025
Kumamoto Castle Hall Civic Hall

1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Sanshiro Takagi & HARASHIMA Vs To-y, Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida

So, er… Takeshita’s going to work a few New Japan shows during this period too, right? Because he’s not beating the allegations so far. Would be funny if Takeshita’s entire title reign is spent wrestling the likes of Antonio Honda and Sanshiro Takagi instead of say Shota Umino or Yuya Uemura.

DDT “UTAN FESTA 2025”, 16/11/2025
Tokyo JR Omori Station East Exit Square

1. Omori World Title Next Challenger Battle Royal: X Vs X
2. Interim World Omori Title: Kazuki Hirata Vs Antonio Honda

The current World Omori Champion is the injured Masahiro Takanashi so an interim champion is being crowned in the meantime. Either Kazuki Hirata or Antonio Honda will become Takanashi’s stand-in for the annual Omori Title Match while another No. 1 Contender will be determined in a Battle Royal.

The type of death match for tomorrow’s FREEDOMS Vs Ganbare☆Pro main event has been decided. Lighttubes are the recommended item on the menu but other weapons will be featured too.

GanPro has a secret weapon up their sleeve for the semi-main event. Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase will be accompanied by Nobita as their ringside attendant. Nobita is the nickname of Takahiro Nakayama, a GanPro staff member who was a pro wrestler for a very brief amount of time back in 2014. The FREEDOMS wrestlers had been bullying him around whenever they showed up at GanPro shows, unaware of his background. If Takashi Sasaki & Toru Sugiura are not careful he might decide to start fighting back!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “ALL RISE ’25”, 09/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs J-Rod

The next wrestler from America has been chosen to go on tour with Tokyo Joshi Pro this November. J-Rod has around three years of experience since graduating from the NJPW Academy in America with Ohio Valley Wrestling being her current most regular promotion. The “Ultimate Athlete” will debut in TJPW on the 1st November show but the big match of her tour will be fighting either Miu Watanabe or Yuki Aino for the Princess Of Princess Title at November’s Korakuen show.

I don’t mind this trend of tag teams getting themselves in line for a future Princess Tag Team Titles shot while the champions still have other challengers to get through. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki have teamed on and off together this year but both are feeling left behind by other wrestlers from their class. The two are taking their team to the next level by challenging the winners of Ober Eats Vs Hot Shot for the titles.

SUPER JAPAN “NEVER MIND”, 29/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Tag Match: MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki Vs X & X
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi, Jun Kasai & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa Vs Yuji Nagata, Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe

The last Super Japan show of the year is being advertised as the season finale of year one. Sanshiro Takagi is so happy with how Yuji Nagata has turned out as his chosen ace that he wants to wrestle Nagata himself. He also wants to team with Munenori Sawa again and expected Nagata to get more plenty of people offering to team with him so Jun Kasai was brought in to even up the numbers. Nagata has both Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Fuminori Abe wanting to join his side so the two teams are now set.

Super Japan serves as an alternate take of what DDT could have turned into if Takagi chose that name instead of Dramatic Dream Team back in 1997. In DDT, MIKAMI & Takashi Sasaki were more like rivals than partners despite once holding the KO-D Tag Titles together back in 2002. So Takagi wants to see what it would be like if the two of them were a tag team from the beginning instead of opponents. MIKAMI & Sasaki are both curious to find out for themselves as well.


SUPER JAPAN “COME AGAIN 2025” Results

October 14, 2025

SUPER JAPAN “COME AGAIN 2025”, 14/10/2025
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Exhibition Match: Ippanjin Munenori Sawa defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the Shining Wizard (0:28).
1a. Rematch: Ippanjin Munenori Sawa defeated Sanshiro Takagi with the O-Manjigatame (4:20).
2. Mio Shirai Vs DJ Nira ended in an unclear way due to a blackout (10:33).
3. 3 Way Tag Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei defeated MIKAMI & Jun Masaoka and Shota & Ryoma Tsukamoto when Kei pinned Masaoka after the Gotai Fumanzoku (9:33).
4. Special Tag Match: Gym Trainer Kotoka & Mac Matsushita defeated Fuminori Abe & Bryan Ishizaka when Matsushita pinned Ishizaka with the Uso Splash (10:33).
5. Special Tag Match: Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono when Kamifuku pinned Hanazono after the Suwama Assisted Famouser (15:04).
6. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Shinya Aoki ended in a Time Limit Draw (30:00).

Thirty minutes wasn’t enough to determine a winner between Yuji Nagata and Shinya Aoki. The two of them were both thanked by Sanshiro Takagi afterwards for giving everyone a wonderful match and Nagata in particular confirmed that Takagi was right to make him the ace of Super Japan. Takagi then made a request to Nagata. He will be officially back wrestling again in November and he would like to wrestle Nagata on the final Super Japan show of the year. It will take place on 29th December and Takagi will team with Munenori Sawa while Nagata will get to choose his own partner. That idea brought Kuroshio TOKYO Japan and Fuminori Abe to the ring both volunteering to team with Nagata. Takagi expected something like this would happen so he suddenly brought Jun Kasai into the ring to make this situation a 6-Man Tag Match! Kasai said exciting things can happen when two people with nothing in common get together. However he then pointed out that both he and Nagata do salutes in their matches. Takagi said this match will determine which wrestler’s salute is the real deal!

The tag team of Suwama & Yuki Kamifuku was called Team Shonandai since both of them are from Fujisawa City. They figured they were too powerful for the Up Town team of Kuroshio & Momoka Hanazono to handle. They were proven right. In fact Suwama was so powerful that he ended up making both his opponents and also Kamifuku cry, which led to him apologizing. The other three all kicked him to get some payback but Suwama got back on the same page with Kamifuku to do an Assisted Famouser onto Hanazono for the finish.

Gym Trainer Kotoka lived up to his name by having a full on gym trainer gimmick urging Mac Matsushita to exercise properly. He also held kick training pads and used them to block Fuminori Abe’s kicks before using them as a weapon on both Abe & Bryan Ishizaka.

The match between Mio Shirai and DJ Nira turned into a tragedy. Nira grabbed his umbrella and threatened to use it as a weapon until suddenly he turned it on himself and stabbed his own stomach! The referee check on Nira and when he couldn’t sense any life in him, he too committed seppuku next to the body! Shirai tried to revive the both of them and when she couldn’t, she committed seppeku as well. The lights in the room then switched off. After a few seconds, a lone spotlight shined in the ring showing Antonio Honda wearing a diaper and behaving like a baby being born.

Takagi’s return to the ring is not officially happening until “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025” but the opening match was an exhibition bout for him to shake off his ring rust. He lost to Sawa in 28 seconds. The result made one person in the crowd particularly mad. It was the DDT GM Hisaya Imabayashi and he was furious to get this match for the money he spent on his ticket! He called Takagi a conman and ordered a rematch to begin despite having no authority in Super Japan. The restart went ahead and Takagi brawled with Sawa around the venue. Takagi sprayed a fire extinguisher that ended up knocking out the referee. Imabayashi got back on the microphone and ordered the timekeeper to pause the stopwatch until the referee regained consciousness. Meanwhile Sawa tricked Takagi to repeatedly run the ropes back and forth until he ran out of energy. Once Takagi was tired, Sawa put him in the O-Manjigatame and held on for the recovered referee to see Takagi tap out. After the match Takagi announced the 29th December booking, calling it the final episode of Super Japan’s first season.

The 29th December show will also reunite MIKAMI and Takashi Sasaki as a DDT Legend Tag Team. Takagi reminded both of them that when they created DDT, NOSAWA Rongai originally suggested they call the company Super Japan but they all rejected it and came up with Dramatic Dream Team instead. This spin-off exists to see what would have happened if they went with Super Japan so Takagi wondered what if MIKAMI & Sasaki were a tag team here instead of being the rivals they were in DDT? Sasaki agreed because he likes the nostalgic vibe that on Super Japan shows that reminds him of old DDT. MIKAMI said there is a drama in their history that fans of today might not understand so he is enthusiastic to see where this idea goes.

7. Yuki Aino, Yuna Manase & Toga defeated Miu Watanabe, Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara when Toga pinned Uehara with the Rock Bottom (16:37).

Things aren’t settled yet between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Aino but the main event saw Hot Shot getting one over on Ober Eats instead. Yuna Manase blocked a Double Flapjack to give Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara a Double Clothesline. Toga was then able to hit Uehara with the Elbow Smash before pinning her with the Rock Bottom. After the match Manase told Toga that she won a match right in the heart of Tokyo Joshi Pro. She also thinks Aino is ready to win the Princess Of Princess Title from Watanabe. Aino agreed and said she couldn’t have asked for a better warm up match. Toga believes the three of them all have the passion to win championships at Korakuen Hall next weekend! It was Kamifuku’s first time wrestling Manase in a while and she said Manase is as big and energetic as ever. Kamifuku tried to be more like Ken Ohka in order to beat her but that plan didn’t work so she is going to file a complaint towards Ganbare☆Pro. Watanabe then asked if Aino’s hot performance today means that “Miuderella’s Castle” has been set on fire? According to her the castle park has a pond in it so she has water needed to extinguish that fire.

Today was Alice Crowley’s first appearance in Japan as part of the build up to her International Princess Title challenge. There was a contract signing at the start of the show and it was apparent just how much taller “Big Al” is than Arisu Endo. The champion decided to stand on a chair to show everyone that she is the bigger Alice. Then later in the show when it was time for their Tag Match, Crowley immediately attacked Endo and they fought each other for most of it. Shoko Nakajima ended up wiping out Endo with a dive while Crowley caught a dive from Haru Kazashiro. Crowley then turned that into a Swinging Side Slam for the three count. She later said the only reason she came to Japan is to take the IP Title from Endo although she does like the welcoming atmosphere of TJPW. Endo also made it clear she doesn’t like being called tiny because she has a big presence!

Mahiro Kiryu was in the fight of her life with the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title on the line. Miyu Yamashita gave her a one-sided beatdown early that made Kiryu rethink her gameplan. She fled out of the ring twice, once getting thrown back in and the other making Yamashita chase her up to the aisle. Up there Kiryu grabbed the folder containing the contract that Endo and Crowley signed earlier in the show and she hit Yamashita with it. Rise Shirai then tried to grab the folder but Kiryu pulled it away and tripped over Yamashita, landing her back with the folder falling on top of her. Fumirin (who wasn’t the ref for this match) then suddenly appeared to count a pinfall and declare the International Princess Championship Match Signing Document as the new champion! Kiryu and Yamashita then fought over the contract until they were reminded of the 20 count. They both ran back to the ring but only Yamashita made it in time while Kiryu was counted out. Kiryu then tried to pin the contract after the match until Yamashita chased her away.

There were more Iron Man Title changes after the show. Shirai placed her binder on top of the contract and left it alone. Fumirin found it and decided to count the pin, declaring Rise Shirai’s Binder as the new champion! Then even later somebody placed a drink on top of the binder and Fumirin again treated it as a pinfall, declaring the Double Vitamin Drink as the new champion. This then led to a battle of endurance as Kiryu grabbed the bottle and attempted to drink it empty as quickly as she could. She finished the drink without interruption and was rewarded with the Iron Man Title again for her knockout effort.

Things are suddenly looking up for Shino Suzuki! She won her tag match today by whipping out a new Modified Cobra Clutch that made Mifu Ashida submit. After the victory Suzuki told HIMAWARI she wants to support their classmates Uehara and Toga while they fight for the Princess Tag Team Titles at Korakuen next week. However she is also frustrated over feeling left out of the title race so she wants to challenge the winners for the belts with HIMAWARI as her partner! HIMAWARI said she feels the same way and took up Suzuki on her offer. She is happy to see how much confidence Suzuki is showing lately.

We now have our first finalist in the Next Generation Tournament as well as the first full elimination. Uta Takami is on a roll with using the Koala Clutch to win matches with Kira Summer becoming the latest victim to the move. Meanwhile Chika Nanase had her first gasp at survival by beating Ren Konatsu to knock her out of the tournament. This now means Summer and Nanase will face each other again with an elimination on the line while Takami waits for the winner in the final. Takami said she will win the tournament and prove that she is beloved by the gods of pro wrestling. Nanase admits she didn’t expect her rematch with Summer to happen this soon. Konatsu felt like she was able to find her own wrestling style during this tournament even though she lost both of her matches. If the tournament is held again next year she wants to enter it, run through every opponent like a typhoon and win it with style.
