6. Shoko Nakajima & Alice Crowley defeated Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Crowley pinned Kazashiro with a Swinging Side Slam (10:04).
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.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN VICTORY IN SHINAGAWA” Results

October 4, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN VICTORY IN SHINAGAWA”, 04/10/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
307 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Next Generation Tournament ’25 – Round 1: Uta Takami defeated Ren Konatsu with the Koala Clutch (7:25).
2. Next Generation Tournament ’25 – Round 1: Kira Summer defeated Chika Nanase with the Hazard Hangover (7:56).
3. Rika Tatsumi defeated Raku with the Missile Hip (7:51).
4. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Miyu Yamashita, Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami defeated Arisu Endo, Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu (c) when Yamashita submitted Kiryu with the Modified Cobra Clutch (12:11).
*Miyu Yamashita becomes the 1,771st champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Miyu Yamashita (c) with a School Boy (12:38 pm).
*Mahiro Kiryu becomes the 1,772nd champion.
5. Yuna Manase & Toga defeated Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida when Toga pinned Ashida with the Rock Bottom (10:29).
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Mizuki & Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Famouser (9:28).
7. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Miu Watanabe & Shino Suzuki when Aino pinned Suzuki with the Venus DDT (17:03).

It’s already getting cold in October so Yuki Aino is looking for ways to fire up everyone, Miu Watanabe included. She created a spark at a press conference a couple of days ago by getting Rise Shirai to call Watanabe a “Monster Princess”. Aino then beat Watanabe in a game of thumb wrestling at that press conference. She also got the better of her today with a Shoulder Tackle battle outside the ring followed by a Reverse Senton being done from the ropes to the floor. Aino then went on to pin Shino Suzuki with the Venus DDT to win the match for herself & Haru Kazashiro. Aino is now claiming she has beaten Watanabe twice this week and Watanabe even agrees. So later backstage Watanabe challenged Suzuki to a thumb wrestling match and easily beat her to get some little piece of momentum going back her way.

The era of Mahironman was briefly interrupted when Miyu Yamashita submitted Mahiro Kiryu to become the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Yamashita wasn’t the only person wanting to win the belt because Hyper Misao told her before the match she had a plan to win it herself. Her plan was to roll up Kiryu from behind during her ring entrance but it failed when Kiryu kicked out of the pin. Misao tried to deny ever ambushing her and then told Kiryu it was her fault for leaving her defence open. Kiryu believed her and apologised for it during her apology spot in the match. Yamashita would then win the match and the title only for Misao to try rolling her up afterwards in a failed attempt to become champion. Kiryu pleaded with Yamashita to give the belt back because she wants to be the champion for her homecoming show on 19th October but Yamashita refused. instead Yamashita told her they can have a singles match with the title on the line at next week’s show in Shinjuku FACE. Kiryu accepted the challenge but then rolled up Yamashita anyway to become champ again before running off. However Yamashita said the singles is still going ahead next week and she will get revenge by bashing Kiryu’s brains in!

The Next Generation Tournament began with two matches in the opening round. This year’s competition is under double elimination rules so losing once doesn’t immediately knock anyone out of the running. It will just make the path to the final a more difficult challenge. Uta Takami won her match against Ren Konatsu and feels relieved because she doesn’t wrestle with the same confidence that Konatsu does despite having more experience. In the other match Kira Summer used a Modified Side Buster called the Hazard Hangover to beat Chika Nanase. That means Summer will next face Takami for a place in the grand final while Konatsu and Nanase have to fight each other when neither can afford to lose again.

DDT “NARAHA TOWN COME ON! ROJO PRO WRESTLING IN ASAKUSA”, 04/10/2025
Tokyo Asakusa Broadway Shopping Arcade

1. Falls Count Anywhere 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & To-y Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yuki Ishida Vs Kazuma Sumi & Rukiya

It is now three years since To-y became an unofficial immigration ambassador for Naraha Town. He is still in an incredible amount of debt to the area that is nowhere near close to being paid off so he is eager to promote the place as hard as he can which includes getting DDT to hold Falls Count Anywhere matches over there every once in a while. Naraha’s mascot Yuzutaro will be in attendance, partially because he is To-y’s debt collector.

A rematch between To-y and Ilusion is set for Niigata but this time the DDT Extreme Title is not on the line. It’s only going to be a singles match so there’s no streamer nonsense for either of them to worry about.

The next big arena supercard show scheduled for Tokyo Joshi Pro will be over at Sumo Hall in March. The promotion wants its locker room to to start preparing for it straight away so they’ve come up with a “LEVEL UP TRIAL” for three of the lesser experienced wrestlers. Shino Suzuki, Haru Kazashiro and Uta Takami have been tasked with taking on Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki and Shoko Nakajima respectively in three singles matches. The goal of this challenge is for the younger side to win two of them.

The 5 Way Match will have special rules applied but they haven’t been decided on yet. It will like become an Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title match too if Mahiro Kiryu is still the champion on the day of the show.

Rika Tatsumi and HIMAWARI won’t be at the show because they will be wrestling each other over in China that day instead.

DDT “WRESTLING HARVEST ~UNDER THE RED SKY~”, 19/10/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Naomi Yoshimura & Soma Takao Vs Munetatsu Nakamura & Hinata Kasai
2. Jun Akiyama & Tomomitsu Matsunaga Vs Daichi Sato & Rukiya

7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) Vs Minoru Suzuki, HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku

DDT held a press conference today to announce the upcoming title matches involving Yuki Ueno and Minoru Suzuki. Yes there’s more than one because it turns out Ueno’s fun idea for his first KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence is to nominate Suzuki as one of the challengers! Kaisei Takechi is just as excited by the idea because as a pro wrestler he wants to overcome all kinds of threats no matter how scary they can be. To-y feels like he has no choice but to fight Suzuki too. Suzuki first said he could fight all three champions by himself but Hisaya Imabayashi told him that wouldn’t be possible. Suzuki then asked if he could invite wrestlers like Lance Archer or Chris Jericho to team with him? Imabayashi couldn’t find an answer but Suzuki understood that would be too difficult to set up on short notice. Imabayashi decided he will choose who Suzuki will team up with, eventually picking HARASHIMA & Yuya Koroku to be on Suzuki’s team.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2025”, 03/11/2025
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Sanshiro Takagi Return Match – Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Shinya Aoki & Yuya Koroku Vs Tetsuya Endo, HAYATA & Junta Miyawaki
3. DDT Extreme Title – 3 Way Match: To-y (c) Vs Akito Vs Super Sasadango Machine
4. Special Tag Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA & Kaisei Takechi Vs X & X
5. Dramatic Dream Match: Zack Sabre Jr. Vs Chris Brookes
6. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (K/c) Vs Minoru Suzuki (U/c)

Double title matches aren’t anything new in pro wrestling lately. In fact they’ve kind of become a bit too common. At least here it will be the first time the KO-D Openweight Title and DDT Universal Title will both be on the line in the same match. This whole thing started with Ueno luring Suzuki to DDT by using the Universal Title only to lose it to him. At the press conference, Suzuki even blamed Ueno for thinking he could beat him with just youth and momentum. He came to DDT to become a dominant champion and now that he sees Ueno with the KO-D Title he is coming to take that too. Ueno admits that this match was always his plan to get revenge on Suzuki. He felt the best way to get the rematch was to win DDT’s most important title and put it on the line against him. With that said, Ueno can’t find it in himself to hate Suzuki. He also said if he loses this match he will never challenge Suzuki again. Suzuki then started pretending he was a reporter for “Weekly Piledriver” and asked Ueno questions about why he wanted this match so badly so Ueno then did the same to him as a “Weekly Sauna Kamiina” reporter. Eventually the two almost got into a fight over the belts and had to be seperated.

“YASU URANO 25TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 16/11/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Yasu Urano Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi

We’ve had twenty five years of the bandana boy Yasu Urano bouncing around the Japanese indies. DDT was his home for a lot of that period but he’s been a freelancer for a long time now with BASARA being one of his regular spots. Urano is putting together his own show to celebrate his anniversary but BASARA have been promoting it pretty strongly so for all intents and purposes I’m lumping the show in the BASARA category on this site.

Urano has picked Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi to be his opponent but several other wrestlers have already been booked for the show. They are Minoru Fujita, HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda, Daisuke Sasaki and Fuminori Abe with more to come.

6. Haruna Neko Graduation Celebration Special Match: Suzume & Mahiro Kiryu (w/ Haruna Neko) defeated Rika Tatsumi & Pom Harajuku when Kiryu pinned Harajuku with the Spinebuster (12:29).
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Haruna Neko defeated Mahiro Kiryu (c) with a Scratch (7:43 pm).
*Haruna Neko becomes the 1,769th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Haruna Neko (c) by Forfeit (7:45 pm).
*Mahiro Kiryu becomes the 1,770th champion.

Today was the day that Tokyo Joshi Pro would bid farewell to Haruna Neko but just like with other graduations in the past, some of the wrestlers who didn’t want her to leave decided to do something about it. Hyper Misao, Rika Tatsumi and Pom Harajuku formed a protest group to prevent Neko from graduating before the main event but Mahiro Kiryu forced everyone to go through with the match. Kiryu then used her apology spot in the match to say sorry for preventing them from stopping the graduation. Neko later got involved in the match, first when Tatsumi choked her over the ropes and then when Harajuku invited her into a strike exchange she was having with Kiryu. Misao then paused the match so she could give Neko one last message. She understands the situation Neko is in because she also suffered from knee injuries including one that required surgery. She also revealed that she wanted Neko to play the lead role in one of her “HYPE!” shows but Neko got injured before it could be set up. She asked Neko if they could wrestle each other one last time and Neko agreed. She then attacked Misao and her team with one of the protest signs, leaving Suzume & Kiryu to finish things off with Tatsumi & Harajuku.

After the match Kiryu spoke about how glad she is her team won and in honor of Neko she will protect the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title forever! Neko then scratched Kiryu over the face and tried to pin her but Kiryu kicked out. Harajuku kicked Kiryu in the shin so Neko could scratch and pin her again, this time with everyone else piling on top so Kiryu couldn’t kick out. Neko had now become the Iron Man Champion! However since Neko is about to graduate and she doesn’t want to worry about carrying around such a dangerous title, she told Daisuke Kiso she was surrendering the championship back to Kiryu. Kiso confirmed the decision so Kiryu is now the champ again.

The graduation ceremony then took place. Neko told the audience she was never particularly good at sports and doesn’t like to speak in front of so many people like this. But she made it this far thanks to the support and kindness of her fans. She also thanked everyone from the TJPW wrestlers to the staff for making her feel at ease for the past seven years. The ceremony ended with the 10 bell salute followed by her final ring introduction, which I think was actually the first time Rise Shirai ever got to announce her. As for what will happen next for Haruna, she said she is going to work for somebody she knows.

Match #5 was still promoted as the “main event” even though it was moved to the penultimate match spot of the card beneath Haruna’s final appearance. The match had both Miu Watanabe and Arisu Endo teaming up as champions as well as Watanabe’s first challenger Yuki Aino being on the other team. Watanabe said she could really feel Aino’s passion so she isn’t going to let her guard down. Autumn has arrived and she is expecting it to be a hot one! Aino is counting down the days to the Princess Of Princess Title match but she is taking her time since there will be several warm up matches between now and 18th October.

Wakana Uehara’s new Ripcord Spinning Facebuster like move now has a name. It is called the Sushi Tornado.

Misao hasn’t taken to losing the Princess Tag Team Titles very well and wasn’t in the mood to wrestle today. Shino Suzuki tried cheering her up by suggesting they compete against each other over something they both like. So they came up with rules based on a comedian they both liked named Gorgeous. He is a pirate who makes geography related jokes. The rule is when a wrestler gets a two count or rope break, they are given the name of a country and have ten seconds to find it on a globe. Suzuki couldn’t find Sweden or Paraguay and Misao couldn’t find Mexico. There was then a moment when Suzuki got a two count with a Backward Rolling Cradle but Misao then pinned her back with a Gedo Clutch. It was decided they could both get a chance at finding Madagascar. Suzuki couldn’t find it so the globe was handed over to Misao. She fumbled the globe but when she picked it back up, she found Madagascar and pointed at it to Kiso to win the match!

It was revealed at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” that Yuki Kamifuku had been working with TJPW for years as a freelancer and she was now thinking of signing with the company on a full time basis. Today she confirmed a deal has been made and she is now officialy under contract with the promotion. She described her time with TJPW up to now as if it was like a couple that had lived together for years and met each other’s families but never went all the way with getting married. So think of this as Kamifuku finally popping the question and now becoming married to TJPW! Later backstage Sanshiro Takagi told reporters the story that Kamifuku originally came to TJPW from a talent agency whose manager he knew. Kamifuku was at a point where she was either going to become a pro wrestler or go work at a real estate agency. He is happy Kamifuku chose wrestling because she has become a valuable asset for TJPW. Tetsuya Koda also explained how Kamifuku was a TJPW regular in name only and that it was news to many fans that she was actually a freelancer all along. It was an ambiguous situation but one where nothing in particular is going to change for her going forward. Kamifuku said she thinks of Takagi like her wrestling father and Koda like her wrestling boss. Koda had to correct her because he really is her boss now.

9. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe defeated Mizuki (c) with the Spinning Tear Drop (22:58).
*Mizuki fails in V4. Miu Watanabe becomes the 16th Princess Of Princess Champion!

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!

3. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu when Suzume pinned Kiryu with the Ring A Bell (7:39).
4. Rika Tatsumi defeated Chika Nanase with the Sliding Hip Lock (9:31).
5. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Shoko Nakajima & Uta Takami when Uehara pinned Takami with a Modified Facebuster (10:38).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami defeated Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida when Yamashita pinned Ashida with the Attitude Adjustment (12:53).
7. Mizuki, Haru Kazashiro & Toga defeated Miu Watanabe, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki when Mizuki pinned Suzuki with the Cutie Special (13:16).

First blood goes to Mizuki. Her team beat Miu Watanabe’s team in a warm up match for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” happening next month. Mizuki said she couldn’t have won the match by herself and thanked her partners for teaming with her today. Both Haru Kazashiro & Toga were really happy because they got to wrestle in KBS Hall for the first time today after their previous opportunities went by the wayside for one reason or another. They said Mizuki really was like a princess today but Mizuki pointed out that she herself noticed how much more princess-like Watanabe was today. She’ll leave it up to others to decide if Watanabe is a monster or not. Backstage Watanabe encouraged HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki by telling them everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro is a princess, she just happens to be the No. 1 princess of the summer.

A homecoming for the Kyoto Tag pair of Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida didn’t go according to plan. Kaya Toribami got rid of Arai with a Rolling Senton from the second rope while Miyu Yamashita pinned Ashida with the Attitude Adjustment. Arai said it’s been two years since Tokyo Joshi Pro was last in Kyoto and in the meantime she found a new friend in Ashida. She takes the blame for not being there to stop the pin. Ashida told her she wants to get really strong so they will have an even better triumphant return next time.

Wakana Uehara used a new Modified Facebuster move to win the match for Ober Eats. She was asked by Yuki Kamifuku if the move has a name yet? Uehara told her she’s thinking really hard to come up with one. Kamifuku also can’t get over how young Uta Takami is. She was born in 2007, the same year the first iPhone came out! Shoko Nakajima sees potential in Takami and is considering transforming her into TJPW’s ultimate weapon!

When Raku made her entrance to the ring carrying a futon, Hyper Misao hatched a plan. She cannot be sent to sleep by Raku’s lullaby if she is already sleeping! So she stuffed a pillow into her cape and used it to take a nap in the ring, putting Raku in the position she usually leaves her opponent in. Misao rolled her up when Raku dropped her guard but she was able to kick out. Raku then wrapped Misao up in the futon and taped it closed before bringing her out of the ring over to the stained glass window. She sang Misao to sleep and returned back to the ring hoping for a countout ring but Shoko Nakajima sprayed Misao in the face to wake her up and Misao got back to the ring in time.

7. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: Miu Watanabe defeated Arisu Endo with the Tear Drop (20:20).

The heartbreak of three years ago have now been washed away because Miu Watanabe has won the Tokyo Princess Cup after her second appearance in the final! Now it is Arisu Endo who must carry the feelings of making it so far only to fall at the last hurdle. She found her spots to hit the Tsuruga Castle knee drop and then place Watanabe in the Camel Clutch. Watanabe’s power became an invaluable weapon as the match went on because she kept blocking the Ju no Okite and also picked Endo up over her shoulders and twisted her around into a Dragon Sleeper style Giant Swing! Endo got some shots back with the Waterwheel Drop and Super Kick but Watanabe batted her away and pinned her with the Tear Drop to win the tournament.

After receiving her trophy, Watanabe spoke about losing the Princess Cup final to Yuka Sakazaki three years ago. She then said she is happy from the bottom of her heart that Endo was her opponent today because she shines bright and is always strong. The final she lost to Sakazaki was the first year the current trophy was used so for her to finally hold it after so long has washed away the regret from three years ago. Now that she’s reached the top there is one more thing she wants to do this summer and that is win the Princess Of Princess Title back from Mizuki! She invited Mizuki down to the ring. Mizuki came down and told Watanabe she is an incredible princess and also still a monster. Watanabe said the value of the Princess Title has increased because of Mizuki and now that Watanabe is a “Princess” again she is ready to surpass it. The two agreed to have a Princess Title match at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” on 20th September and they curtsied to each other afterwards.

Backstage Endo was coming to terms over how her summer has ended. She made it all the way to the final and headlined a Korakuen Hall show. So even though she lost she realises how much stronger she has gotten recently and has the confidence to win the tournament next year! She called this the best and hottest summer ever, so much so that she has now come to love this time of year. The fans chanting for her throughout the match gave her strength and she believes it pushed her forward to make it this far under her own merits.

A second big title match was made for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” over the result of the semi-main event. Aja Kong came by to visit for a match but Kyoraku Kyomei are the current Princess Tag Team Champions and they weren’t going to let anyone push them out of the spotlight today. Hyper Misao even stepped up to start the match off with Kong one on one but she immediately sprayed her in the face instead then sent Kong outside to get wrapped up in the ring apron and taped against the corner post. Kong was able to escape though and poor HIMAWARI became the target of Kong’s team from that point on. Mifu Ashida choked her on the ring apron with the Y-Shaped Guillotine while both Ober Eats members shoved their boots into HIMAWARI’s face and Kong pulled at her braids. Kaya Toribami tagged in to start a comeback until Kong gave her the Back Drop. Toribami got her back with a Spin Kick and a dive from Shoko Nakajima out of the ring found Kong as its target. However that left Misao on her own against Ober Eats and Yuki Kamifuku gave her a Reverse Famouser while Misao was trying to block a roll up from Wakana Uehara. The move did enough damage for Uehara to pin Misao with a Jackknife Pin for the upset win.

Uehara quickly grabbed a microphone after the match and called for Kyoraku Kyomei to give Ober Eats a second shot at the Princess Tag Titles! Even Kamifuku didn’t expect to see her partner do this but she liked how brazen it was. Kamifuku then told Nakajima & Misao they can do the title match at Ota Ward Gymnasium on 20th September. Misao reminded everyone that Kyoraku Kyomei already defended the Princess Tag Titles against Ober Eats in America back in April and they won the match. She wants to know what has changed since then for Kamifuku & Uehara to think they should challenge them again? In fact if it wasn’t for Kyoraku Kyomei then Ober Eats wouldn’t exist! However she cannot deny that she just lost to Uehara so she accepted the challenge. Nakajima warned the challengers that they will get back at them 100 times worse! Backstage Uehara explained to Kamifuku that she was determined to go through with another challenge ever since today’s 8-Woman Tag Match was announced. She really loves teaming with Kamifuku and wants to pay her back for always giving her advice every night. Kong then suggested if Ober Eats become champions then she and Ashida can both challenge them for the belts!

Back in May 2021 when Yuki Arai made her pro wrestling debut, she lost to Maki Itoh in a tag match. In the aftermath Itoh encouraged Arai to continue trying to crush her no matter how many years it will take. Well it took a little bit over four years but today Arai was able to crush Itoh for the first time! It wasn’t easy though. When she gave Itoh the Finally kick, Itoh’s iron head blocked the move and she gave Arai a Headbutt afterwards. However Arai fought fire with fire and delivered a Headbutt of her own to Itoh before striking in hard with the Rookie Award. The damage weakened the iron head enough for the Finally to hit its mark the second time and keep Itoh down for the three count. As a show of respect after the match Itoh tucked in her middle finger and instead gave Arai a pinky shake. Backstage Arai said Itoh has been there for all of her big opportunities in wrestling and she has learned so much from her. She is happy to finally beat Itoh for the first time but knows there will be even more matches in the future so this isn’t over between them. Itoh didn’t have much to say other than today she left it all in the ring and it is up to everyone to think for themselves.

Totsugeki! Mizuki sort of found herself fighting in a Handicap Match because Pom Harajuku brought along an inflatable dolphin to use as a weapon against her. There was also a watermelon pool ring that Harajuku placed Mizuki on and dragged her around ringside with. Mizuki was armed with her trusty Pico Pico Hammer though and eventually threw the dolphin into the audience as well as Harajuku’s shoes. When Mizuki won the match with the Diving Foot Stomp she pretended to offer Harajuku a handshake only to stick her tongue out at her instead. She said backstage that Harajuku’s quirks are what she loves about her and she had a lot of fun fighting her today. Harajuku was left wondering why her stomach hurts and also wants to know where her dolphin Shachinoske went.

One of the teams in the 6-Woman Tag Match was built on inspiration. Rika Tatsumi was the inspiration for Suzume to become a pro wrestler and Suzume was the inspiration for Ren Konatsu to do the same. Meanwhile Yuki Aino was teaming with two teenagers who decided to get matching pigtails just because. And yet there was some inspiration hidden in that side too because Aino used herself as a prop for Haru Kazashiro to springboard herself onto Tatsumi just like how Aino would prop up Nodoka Tenma back when she was wrestling. When Aino pinned Konatsu with the Venus DDT to win, Tatsumi left ringside by herself in a temper. Backstage she wants to know where these young wrestlers are all coming from all of a sudden and also complained about her partners not following her lead. Konatsu said they could have won if Tatsumi hadn’t accidentally choked her near the finish. She told Konatsu not to use excuses and she has to try harder to win. However she gave Suzume more encouraging words and patted her on the back. Aino was happy to be back in Korakuen because it has been six months since Tokyo Joshi Pro was last in the building and today was a brilliant victory for her team. She also thought the sight of Kazashiro & Uta Takami dodging Tatsumi’s Hip Attack was like something out of a horror movie for kids.

Yuna Manase was brought in as a wall for Toga to try and climb over today. Sadly for Toga it is a challenge too tough for her to handle. She couldn’t hide her frustration after losing because when Manase tried to give her praise for the effort, Toga pushed her away and left the ring. She said she thought she had a lot of energy going into the match but Manase took all of it and beat her anyway. Manase reached out to her backstage with a suggestion that they should team up next time rather than be opponents. When Manase left TJPW five years ago it was a decision she made to inspire the TJPW wrestlers but today Toga really inspired her! Toga likes the idea and wants to learn from Manase by doing their best together.

The story spreading around the locker room heading into the show was about Juri Suzue’s skills when it comes to arm wrestling. So backstage Raku and Ram Kaichow approached the teen idol with Kaichow demanding an Arm Wrestling match for the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Kaichow quickly learned just how strong Suzue is and was about to lose when Raku started using the power of love to aid her partner. And by power of love I mean distract both Suzue and Daisuke Kiso so Kaichow could use both of her hands to beat Suzue and win the belt.

Kaichow quickly had to make it down to the ring because she was now defending the title in the show opening Battle Royal. The entrances were done Rumble style so Kaichow had to wait for Raku to enter before the happy couple could start making their moves. They eliminated Chika Nanase together but then Raku tried to beat Kaichow to take the title from her! While Kaichow was threatening to divorce Raku over her betrayal, Mahiro Kiryu rolled her up from behind to become the new champion. Miyu Yamashita then entered the match and frightened Kiryu by kicking Kira Summer out of the ring to eliminate her. Suzue entered the match looking to reclaim her title and quickly formed an alliance with Yamashita to eliminate Shino Suzuki. They then did the same to Kiryu so Suzue could become the champ again. The alliance then fell apart and Suzue found herself in the middle of Yamashita and Raku fighting each other. The two of them went over the top rope onto the apron so Suzue used an Axe Kick she named the Suzue Power to knock both of them to the floor and win the match! However she would shortly lose the Iron Man Title again later in the day. Pokotan found her backstage and challenged her to an Arm Wrestling match. It then emptied out a bag of treats onto the table to distract Suzue so it could beat her and run off with the belt.

It was announced that Priscilla Kelly will be at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI”. She had last done a tour with TJPW back in 2018 where she challenged for the Princess Title. In the time since then she had signed with WWE where she wrestled as Gigi Dolin in NXT.

There was an announcement at the beginning of the show about TJPW using a new leadership system behind the scenes. Miyu Yamashita was chosen to be the first “Leader” and she said she is ready to dedicate her life towards TJPW. Tokyo Sports have since reported that her role is essentially like being the chairwoman of a wrestlers association. She is expected to be involved with bringing all of the wrestlers in TJPW together as a united group.

When The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) had finished their show opening concert, it was revealed that Uta Takami is getting her first homecoming show in Kanazawa on 22nd November!

Na-naaaaa na-na-na-na-na-na-na TJPW on the swing! A new collaboration sees TJPW teaming up with Bandai Namco to promote the new “Once Upon A Katamari” video game. Original art has been produced of Yuki Arai, Mizuki, Arisu Endo and Suzume all dressed up looking like the Prince and several of his cousins. While details of what this art will be used for have not been announced yet, unfortunately it has been confirmed that the designs will not be appearing in the new video game itself.

If Mizuki gets to have her way then the entire summer is going to belong to her. She got one step closer to achieving that goal by successfully defending the Princess Of Princess Title today and cutting down the rising star Yuki Arai in the process. Arai relied heavily on Big Boots and similar attacks while Mizuki fired back in kind with Diving Stomps and heavy Dropkicks that resemble those kinds of stomps. Arai switched to putting Mizuki in the Scorpion Death Lock and even tried catching Mizuki’s arm to stop her from reaching the ropes. But Mizuki would rope break out of it and block the Finally to hit a Run-Up Double Stomp. From there Mizuki did the Whirling Candy for a two count. Arai was spent but kept trying to fight back until Mizuki caught her with the Cutie Special, hit her with a Missile Dropkick and drop her with another Cutie Special to win the match.

After the match Mizuki stuck her hand out to help Arai get back up and the two hugged. Arai left the ring and Mizuki thanked the fans for coming to the show as well as the fans who watched the stream from home. She said Arai is tough like Superman and by fighting her she could feel how amazing she is. The baton was passed through everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro today from the very first match to the main event and Mizuki was happy to run with it at the end. If Arai is Superman, Mizuki is the Princess Of Princesses and she next wants to go win the Tokyo Princess Cup as the reigning Princess Champion! Arai admitted she kind of knew Mizuki was too high of a hurdle for her today. As much as she wanted to win the Princess Title her first time challenging for the belt made her realize she still can’t reach it yet. She also knows this wasn’t a once in a lifetime chance and she has time to become someone good enough to wear the belt around her waist someday. When that day comes she will challenge with confidence and would be happy if it’s Mizuki she has to beat to become champion.

Turns out it’s going to take more than just sasumata poles to take the Princess Tag Team Titles away from Kyoraku Kyomei! For the last month Daydream have been using sasumatas to torture the champions and get into their heads. Hyper Misao’s first counter measure was to promise she wouldn’t use her Hero Spray in the match and place it down on the mat. She then pulled out a second can and immediately sprayed Daydream with it. When the fight went around ringside Miu Watanabe used the sasumata to hook onto Shoko Nakajima and carry her up high before throwing her down to the floor. She and Rika Tatsumi also used the poles to swing and spin their opponents around in the ring. Misao then had to bring out her second counter measure, the Hyper Mobile! She ended up crashing it into Mahiro Kiryu but then Kyoraku Kyomei and Daydream charged into each other like it was a joust! Both teams wiped each other out so it was all even when the action moved back into the ring. Daydream tried to both do top rope moves on seperate corners but Kyoraku Kyomei countered it with their own Avalanche moves. Daydream did the Daydream Eternity on Nakajima by Misao broke the count at two. Nakajima then countered Watanabe’s Tear Drop into a Hurricanrana and did the Northern Lights Suplex only for Tatsumi to break the pin. The champions then got the upper hand when Nakajima gave Watanabe the Double Arm DDT while Misao used Vanitas on Tatsumi. That left the coast clear for Nakajima to climb the top turnbuckle and hit the Diving Senton on Watanabe for the win. Nakajima was worried the match would end in a time limit draw but she thinks her strength was the difference maker that pushed Kyoraku Kyomei towards victory. Tatsumi is disappointed that Daydream couldn’t win but she at least thinks her and Watanabe showed how good they would look as models advertising the sasumata poles.

There was one title change on the show and it came when Moka Miyamoto defeated Suzume for the International Princess Championship! Suzume added a rope walk Flying Facecrusher to her moveset and followed it up with the low range Ring A Bell. But when she jumped from the ropes to do the Spring Ring A Bell, Miyamoto dodged it and connected with the Zero Fighter Kick. Suzume was helpless from there and got pinned with the Korokan afterward for the title change. Miyamoto happily cried over winning her first championship especially because it happened two days before the 5th anniversary of her debut match. She is also pleased that the move she originally created for her first title challenge was what won her the match today. She is now looking forward to defending the title against foreign challengers so she can show them Japanese pro wrestling. Suzume is sad to see her title reign stop here when she feels like she is at her strongest. But having the title expanded her world and the reason she won it is because everyone believed in her. She knows she will bounce back from this and not miss out on the hot summer ahead.

The return of Billie Starkz to Japan also meant the return of the big move heavy style of wrestling you’d see on the American indies. Miyu Yamashita was happy to fight that way too even if she ends up getting a bit of a headache from it afterwards. At one point Starkz lifted her up at ringside and did a running Alabama Slam into the ring apron that saw Yamashita almost smack her head off of the edge. Yamashita returned the favour by giving Starkz the Attitude Adjustment from the ring apron to the floor. Back in the ring Starkz started getting frustrated when a Swanton Bomb and Tombstone Piledriver would not put Yamashita away. She then tried lifting her up for the Sugoi Driver but Yamashita slipped off behind her and applied a Sleeper Hold. Starkz used the Alabama Slam again to throw Yamashita into the corner and went for another Sugoi Driver but it was countered into a Victory Roll that led to Yamashita German Suplexing Starkz into the turnbuckles! Yamashita then hit the Crash Rabbit Heat in the middle of the ring to pin Starkz for the three count. Backstage Yamashita said today was the first time in three months she’s been in a TJPW ring and in that time she spent a lot of her tour with Starkz. She’s amazed at what Starkz has accomplished while only being 20 years old and enjoys fighting her, even when she does some crazy unexpected things. She wants Starkz to wrestle in TJPW again and suggested they even team up here. Starkz calls Yamashita one of her best opponents. Also as much as she was happy to wrestle on TJPW’s Dallas show, she said nothing can replace the feeling of wrestling on a TJPW show in Japan.

A lot of effort went into the entrances for the intergender tag match. TeaDK walked out dressed like royalty and being accompanied by servants. Meanwhile Maki Itoh made sure El Desperado got the full NEO Itoh Respect Army experience when the two of them danced to “Setsunairo”! Things went badly for TeaDK from the start. Desperado caught a Big Boot from Chris Brookes and threw his foot right into Emi Sakura’s face, causing her to get a nose bleed. Then Desperado and Brookes fought all the way up to the second floor to do the stretched rubber band spot on Itoh back in the ring. Brookes then introduced Itoh to Bunbun and the puppet gave her the middle finger. Itoh grabbed Bunbun and threw him out of the ring in response. Sakura was able to put Desperado in the Romero Special but Brookes used a Piledriver to get rid of him. Sakura then beat down Itoh with a Double Arm Backbreaker and Short-Range Lariat. Itoh showed resistance by sticking up her middle finger but Sakura then finished her off with the Queen’s Gambit to pin her. Backstage Sakura said the NEO Itoh Respect Army put 100% into their entrance but when the bell rang they didn’t give it their all. She also said Brookes didn’t do his share of the work either so this win was all entirely thanks to herself! Itoh praised Despy for the entrance and called him a great idol along with being a great IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion. She is now thinking of uniting all of the NEO Itoh Respect Army together so they can release a debut CD together.

Everyone had to watch their backs for the 3 Way Tag Match. Arisu Endo and Haru Kazashiro started off the match exchanging chain holds until Yuki Kamifuku eye raked the both of them. She then called VENY in so VENYU could work over Kazashiro until Endo & Jada Stone took control. Kazashiro continued taking the brunt of the attacks until she could tag in Yuki Aino. VENY got time in the ring with Stone and Kazashiro that ended with a triple down and tags to their partners. The two members of the Tokyo Joshi Tokusatsu Club then turned it up a notch with Aino giving Stone & Endo a Double Side Suplex. Things broke down with VENY doing a Moonsault onto Stone outside the ring while Kamifuku tried to finish off whoever she could find. But Kazashiro came in to give her the Fisherman Suplex. That left Aino in the ring with Endo. Aino countered the Ju no Okite into a Running Bulldog and then used the UBV on Endo to pin her. Kazashiro said this was her first 3 Way Tag match and she didn’t know what to do during the chaos. Aino praised the other teams for being strong and admitted some luck went their way. But they’re going to use this positive power to do more. VENYU were annoyed because they thought this was going to be an easy win. VENY is also noticing the last few times she’s been teaming with Kamifuku they’ve been losing. She doesn’t get invited to TJPW much so when she does she wants to get a belt! Kamifuku told her they can go to Ginza if she wants to look for a new belt.

Some new looks were on display for the 8-Woman Tag Match. Kaya Toribami and Chika Nanase had new costumes while Toga wore a fancy pair of sunglasses that look similar to the ones Kira Summer wears. Yuna Manase showed up with a new title belt to go along with the Kitsune World Title. Yesterday she won the Daily Sports Tag Team Title over at a PURE-J show. She accidentally dropped that belt to the floor during her ring entrance. Mahiro Kiryu’s once per match apology was her saying sorry for bringing a hot woman like Manase here when it’s already so hot every day. The match came down to Nanase lifting up Wakana Uehara into the Inari Torii Kai only for Mifu Ashida to kick her from behind. Uehara later jumped onto Nanase and rolled her into the Bannana Pillow to make her give up. Toga said her team had a good mix of power and flexibility to win. The wrestlers with power made up for those who didn’t have any and it went the other way with flexibility. Toga & Uehara were also happy to wrestle Manase who had already graduated from TJPW years before they debuted. They were able to show her some of TJPW’s new faces that have popped up while she was gone. Manase thought she had gotten stronger after winning another championship yesterday but she wasn’t able to help her teammates today. She learned she will still have to become even stronger.

Pom Harajuku showed up with her face painted to match Kyoko Inoue’s design but when it was time for their tag match to begin, their opponents decided to take a nap in the ring. Harajuku convinced Inoue they should go straight for the pin but Raku rolled the both of them on top of Andreza Giant Panda for a nearfall. Raku & Andreza then piled themselves on top of them for another nearfall. Inoue was then put to sleep by the power of Raku’s eyemask and lullaby but Harajuku woke her up by screaming. Inoue tried attacking Andreza with Mongolion Chops but Andreza knocked her back with his own version of the move as well as a Spinning Back Fist. Andreza also swatted Harajuku away at points but she was able to knock him down with a Missile Dropkick to the back. Raku gave Inoue a Russian Leg Sweep with an assist from Andreza pushing them over. Andreza then knocked out Harajuku with a Headbutt and pinned her with the Andreza Press. Raku said her team spent most of the day sleeping which is why they were able to win. Andreza’s handler Ossan Tiger agreed because Andreza slept for more than 10 hours, the perfect amount. Harajuku was upset not because she lost but because Inoue wasn’t looking when she was doing her best. Next time she will show Inoue just how cool she is.

The rookie Ren Konatsu got to be on the winning side of a tag team match for the first time. She has HIMAWARI to thank for that. Konatsu was taken out by Shino Suzuki late in the match leaving HIMAWARI to fight Uta Takami. She broke out of the Koala Clutch to give Takami the Princess Drop. Then after that she pinned Takami with the Sunflower Tempest. HIMAWARI was happy to be in the opening match at Ota Ward Gymnasium again because she wanted to make up for losing the opening match at “GRAND PRINCESS ’25” back in March. She also wanted to lead Konatsu for her first big event match of her career. Konatsu only just debuted but she said she has a strong desire to liven things up. Takami is disappointed she lost but appreciates getting to experience all kinds of emotions like happiness, frustration and fun! She hopes some day she will go on a bus tour across Japan with Suzuki for a wrestling trip together.
