6. Raku, Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino, Haru Kazashiro & Shino Suzuki when Harajuku pinned Kazashiro with the Pom de Justice (12:19).
7. Shoko Nakajima, Uta Takami & Chika Nanase defeated Yuki Arai, Suzume & HIMAWARI when Takami pinned Suzume with a High Angle Sunset Flip Jacknife Pin (17:26).

Some new inventiveness from Uta Takami scored her an upset pinfall over Suzume! She blocked the Ring A Bell in order to lock in the Koala Clutch but Suzume knocked her to the mat. Takami kept her grip on Suzume and from there used the set up of a Running Bulldog to bounce up the ropes and Sunset Flip over Suzume into a Jackknife pin for the three count. Takami said after the match she’s been convincing herself she has gained momentum and today she showed Suzume that the momentum is real. She is now confident she will win the International Princess Title on 8th November. Suzume said momentum won’t be enough to beat her but she is excited to face an apparantly unstoppable Takami in the title match.

Meanwhile Shoko Nakajima thinks Yuki Arai made a fool out of her during the main event. One of their exchanges ended with Arai putting Nakajima into the Scorpion Death Lock. Nakajima was eventually able to get out of it with a rope break but was slow to get back up. Arai then Dropkicked her in the back and Nakajima had to go regroup outside the ring. She fought back by giving Arai a 619 when they were both getting back into the ring but Nakajima said after the match that she isn’t going to forget about how much Arai targeted her lower back.

There was a contract signing before the show for the upcoming Princess Tag Team Titles match between Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed and RakuPom. According to Yuki Aino, she understands Raku & Pom Harajuku more than anyone else in Tokyo Joshi Pro. Although to be honest, even Aino doesn’t quite understand why those two are the way they are. Since it is Aino’s birthday tomorrow, RakuPom gave her a super large heart shaped onigiri rice ball as her present. They also gave Haru Kazashiro a tiny riceball because it isn’t her birthday then quizzed her on how much she really knows about Aino with personal questions she couldn’t know the answer to. Later in the show, Raku saved Harajuku from taking Prism Greed’s tag finisher. Harajuku then used Shino Suzuki’s momentum to take out both Aino & Kazashiro through some accidental friendly fire. Raku then slammed Kazashiro onto Aino with a Facebuster and Harajuku followed up with the Pom de Justice for the win. Harajuku said RakuPom won today because they have so much love for Aino while Kazashiro is too naive to entrust her with Aino’s well being. They’re going to go get Aino another birthday present to celebrate.

Halloween is coming up next week so Hyper Misao, Wakana Uehara & Toga were dressed up on costumes for their match and asked their opponents for a trick or treat. They then threw candy at their opponents and dunked the Halloween buckets over their heads to start the match. The wrestlers spent part of the match slamming each other onto the candy too.

It is not often we would see Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine inside a TJPW ring but they’ve both been here before. They made a request to Tetsuya Koda before their match with Miyu Yamashita & Yuki Kamifuku, asking if they could change the name of the promotion to Tokyo Oji Pro Wrestling if they win? Koda declined and also strictly ordered Dieno not to do any spots where he exposes his backside. Dieno ignored the rule during the match by attempting the Danshoku Nightmare, causing Koda to run into the ring and pull Dieno’s tights back up. Still, nothing in the end could stop Dieno from doing what he wanted to do. He got into the Hell Gate position where both Koda and Kamifuku got a face full of Dieno’s backside. Yamashita pushed Sasadango face first into the Hell Gate but Sasadango was unaffected because of the mask he was wearing. Yamashita then kicked the mask off of Sasadango’s head before also kicking Dieno in the backside. Sasadango took a High Kick to the head but got to give Yamashita the Lehman Shock before going down, leaving Dieno and Kamifuku as the last ones standing against each other. Kamifuku did her best to fight off Dieno but was out on her feet after taking a Vertical Drop Brainbuster. Dieno gave her a hug and then the Danshoku Driver to win the match.

After the match Dieno said he always suspected people made assumptions about Kamiyu based on her flashy looks. He thinks Kamiyu could have gone and made connections anywhere especially because she can speak English but she always chose to be with TJPW. She started her wrestling career here and she will end it here. There is just one thing Dieno wants to know. There was a day he met Kamifuku in the dojo where she was training to be a wrestler and had not made her debut yet. He noticed she was trying to stay cheerful so he gave her some advice to speak in English as a wrestler because she knows the language. But what he wants to know is from that day to right now, does Kamiyu enjoy pro wrestling? Kamifuku asked Dieno to look her in the eyes for her answer… and then she eye-poked him. Later backstage Dieno remembered the stipulation over changing TJPW into Tokyo Oji Pro Wrestling. Sasadango admitted he didn’t expect they would win today so they should agree the idea was just them spouting nonsense that can be ignored. Since Sasadango is currently the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion, he was kind of hoping Yamashita or Kamifuku would have beaten him today, win the title off of him and take his place on the DDT show he is booked for later.

Ren Konatsu has booked her place in the Next Generation Tournament ’26 final while Chieri Sakimori is the first wrestler to be eliminated this year. Shion Kanzaki is still alive in the tournament after losing to Konatsu and now has to fight with Momo Sato over the Loser’s Bracket spot in the final. Sato’s win over Sakimori today is also her first victory in her TJPW career.

TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi
202 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Next Generation Tournament ’26 – Round 1: Shion Kanzaki defeated Chieri Sakimori with the Midnight Blues (5:13).
2. MIRAI defeated Momo Sato with the Lariat (8:15).
3. 3 Way Match: Rika Tatsumi/Great Wakabayashi-kun defeated Pom Harajuku and HIMAWARI when Wakabayashi-kun pinned HIMAWARI with the Great Wakabayashi-kun Bomb (8:50).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Zac (Battle Mode) defeated Shoko Nakajima & Pokotan when Kamifuku pinned Pokotan after the Zac And Famouser (13:28).
5. Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).

Has Daisy Monkey met its match from the new generation? Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami have already found their own tag partners among the Tokyo Joshi Pro senpais but they got to show they could be something of an effective tag team together if their paths had gone different directions. The two of them were able to fight Daisy Monkey to a twenty minute time limit draw. Suzume and Takami were the ones fighting each other in the final moments and even though the bell rang to end the match, Takami still went and put Suzume in the Koala Clutch thinking it wasn’t over yet. Suzume understood Takami’s attitude and smiled at her instead of retaliating when they were broken up. Takami then got on the microphone to challenge Suzume for the International Princess Title. Suzume agreed because she wants to keep fighting Takami to a conclusive finish and she wants the title match to happen on 8th November. Arisu Endo then spoke to Kazashiro but resisted the urge to challenge her for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Endo admitted her back is a wreck right now and she doesn’t want to challenge for a championship until she is in 100% condition again. Kazashiro promised she will wait for Endo’s challenge but she already has a title defence set for 8th November.

Yuki Kamifuku had promised everyone that her pet dog Zac would activate Battle Mode and team up with her for a match. She carried Zac down to the ring for their entrance only to bring him back up to the stage. Then behind the curtain, Zac transformed into the Battle Mode, looking more pro wrestler like than his normal self. He’s still a dog though and was unaware of some of the usual actions one would do in a wrestling match. Shoko Nakajima got him to do a lock up by making him do the handshake trick with his paw. From that point Zac understood what to do and showed off a lucha libre type of agility. Kamifuku gave Zac instructions as the match progressed although at some points Zac got distracted, like when he ignored Kamiyu to go urinate on the corner post. Nakajima also distracted Zac with a dog toy but Zac made a Roman Reigns comeback by hitting a Superman Punch and a Spear. When Nakajima was outside the ring, Kamiyu threw the dog toy at her, causing Zac to dive through the ropes onto her. He then went back in an Kamifuku used him as a launch pad to do the Famouser on Pokotan for the win. Backstage she talked about how long Zac has looked after her, going far back to before her debut match. He’s an old dog now that’s been through a lot but also incredibly cool. She thinks TJPW has helped Zac become a fine gentleman too.

Things could have gotten out of hand quickly when Rika Tatsumi in her Great Wakabayashi-kun persona pulled out a fork weapon on HIMAWARI. Thankfully the ref discarded the weapon and Pom Harajuku got to intervene. Harajuku & HIMAWARI then lured Tatsumi into a wheeled cage near ringside, locking her in and spinning the cage around in circles. Wakabayashi-kun eventually escaped and grabbed her weapon again, this time turning it into a nunchuck to choke her opponents with. Both of her opponents started to choke her back out of instinct until all three wrestlers were down. Wakabayashi-kun was able to get the advantage from there and pin HIMAWARI with a Neck Hanging Bomb.

The current GHC Women’s Champion paid TJPW another visit, this time for a match against the youngest wrestler on the roster. MIRAI put Momo Sato through her paces but the rookie was able to show some power by Body Slamming her opponent and putting her in a Crab Hold. MIRAI got out of it and stayed on the defensive until she could trap Sato in the Sea Rider and then the Miraimare Shock submission holds. Sato got another Body Slam in and tried to pin MIRAI several times but a Lariat knocked her down and out in the end. MIRAI said she discovered a great “Peach” today and is looking forward to seeing her ripen until she becomes delicious enough to have a rematch.

The first round of the Next Generation Tournament is now complete. Shion Kanzaki moves onto the Winner’s Bracket after she made Chieri Sakimori tap out to the Midnight Blues. She will now face Ren Konatsu next with the winner advancing to the final. Kanzaki only has memories of losing to Kanzaki so she is determined to beat her this time. Sakimori said this was her first ever singles match and she had fun despite losing. She at least got to use her entrance song for the first time and hopes the fans will come to love it as much as they’ll love her. Sakimori moves down to the Loser’s Bracket for an all or nothing match against Momo Sato.

At the start of the show Rise Shirai brought the trainee Yui out to hype up her debut match on 8th November. She said she’ll give it her all and asks for the fans to support her.

7. Shoko Nakajima & Uta Takami defeated Miu Watanabe & Shion Kanzaki when Nakajima pinned Kanzaki with the Northern Lights Suplex (17:34).

Not even a year into her wrestling career and Shion Kanzaki already gets a homecoming show. She was given the main event spot, teaming up with Miu Watanabe. Kanzaki got to apply the Midnight Blues armbar on both Shoko Nakajima & Uta Takami but ultimately fell to Nakajima’s Northern Lights Suplex. After the match Nakajima told Kanzaki she grew up in an amazing place because the big wave and rock formation from the Toei Company opening logo is in the area and Nakajima got to visit it today! Kanzaki got to tell everyone how happy she is to wrestle in the main event against the senpais she admires so much. She promised to keep coming back to her home as a stronger wrestler over and over.

The antics of RakuPom unexpectedly got the better of Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed today. They stopped Yuki Aino from doing a Diving Shoulder Block then climbed up the ropes to her so the Love Triangle could all jump off together. RakuPom both hit diving attacks on Haru Kazashiro at the same time while Aino was in the middle of it unable to do anything. Aino was then stunned when Raku & Pom Harajuku suddenly told her they love her. After that, Raku pinned Aino with the Hurricane Turn. After the match Raku asked why is Aino holding the Princess Tag Team Titles with Kazashiro because she once said she would split the belts three ways with Raku & Harajuku? Kazashiro snapped back and said the belts are part of the love between her and Aino. She wanted Aino to explain what’s going on then decided Prism Greed will defend the Princess Tag Titles against RakuPom on 8th November. Not only will the tag titles be on the line but so too will Aino’s love!

The fourth annual Next Generation Tournament began with Ren Konatsu submitting Momo Sato with the Shoulder Bites. With it being a double elimiation tournament, Konatsu just has to win one more match to reach the final while Sato now has to climb up from the bottom without losing again. Konatsu said she has her sights set on winning the tournament and plans to win her next match in a decisive manner. Sato has to deal with her frustration from losing today and do her best in the next round.

As homecoming shows go in Tokyo Joshi Pro, today was one of the bigger experiments. TJPW collaborated with the Choshi Electric Railway to have a special train journey bringing fans from Choshi Station to Inuboh Station. Raku and Shino Suzuki were both on board the train as special guest conductors. Raku got to stamp tickets and give train trivia while Suzuki provided sightseeing commentary throughout the ride. Raku said her time there was like a dream while Suzuki thought it was fun to be a tour guide again after such a long time.

10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) defeated Suzume with the Finally (21:51).
*V5 for Yuki Arai.

The bee has been kicked down to the ground. Yuki Arai continues her Princess Of Princess Title reign with a clean victory over Suzume, the current International Princess Champion. Suzume’s big moves to try and unseat the Princess Champ included a Flying Facebuster from the ring apron to the floor, the Hachinosu Eight Knot submission hold and Ring A Bell. When all of those failed, she resorted to Rolling Cradles but couldn’t pin Arai with them. Arai tried to submit Suzume with the Scorpion Death Lock but Suzume fought her way to grab a rope break. Eventually Arai got to throw Suzume down with the Full Nelson Buster and hit the Finally kick to get the victory and her fifth successful title defence.

Arai called Suzume a genuinely scary wrestler and she learned so many new sides to her through their matches together in the last few weeks. She’s happy to have somebody the same age as her become her rival. When Suzume left the ring, Shoko Nakajima got in and demanded Arai face her next so she can win the Princess Title from her. Arai remembers losing to Nakajima in the Tokyo Princess Cup so she accepted her challenge for 8th November. She raised the title high above Nakajima’s head, causing Nakajima to storm off. Arai then said she has gotten so big as champion she will go take down the Big Kaiju next! Meanwhile, Suzume backstage said she is now going to make the International Princess Title shine just as brightly as the Princess Title so Arai will want to fight her for it next time.

Today was the rude awakening that Daydream feared was coming. They lost the Princess Tag Team Titles to Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro! The lead up to the match had the champs bickering with each other like an old couple but they got back on the same page in time to take the title match seriously. However Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed were on great form as a team too and were constantly rescuing each other from harm’s way or cutting off the other team from doing the same. The gameplan worked out as Kazashiro trapped Miu Watanabe in the Izayoi hold on the ring apron while Aino made Rika Tatsumi submit to the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire Z. This now makes Aino a three time tag champion with a different tag partner every time. She said she isn’t surprised by the result because her team kept on believing in themselves. Kazashiro thinks it took more than luck to win because she chose this path with Aino and it was meant to be. She also dyed part of her hair from blue to red in order to show off her fighting spirit. Daydream cannot believe they lost the titles way before they could break the record for most defences. Watanabe feels like she’s woken up from a dream while Tatsumi swears it does not change that Daydream is the best team out there.

Let’s face it, the result of this was never in doubt. Especially since around 12 hours before this match happened, EVE announced Miyu Yamashita’s next appearance in England to defend the EVE International Title against Marina Shafir. Anyway, Yamashita successfully defended the belt here against Arisu Endo, knocking down her scrappy opponent with a running Skull Kick. The move didn’t come out of nowhere either. Endo went to do the Ju no Okite but Yamashita landed on her feet and flipped Endo upside down to give her the Wheelbarrow German Suplex instead. Endo kicked out of the Buzzsaw Kick and hit a Thrust Kick but that was what set up the Skull Kick finish. Yamashita said she anticipated Endo’s moves this time and had a built-in strategy ready for them, which is unusual for her to do. However that strategy went out the window when Endo got the first attack in so Yamashita fought the rest of the match just through sheer determination. Endo thinks getting to fight Yamashita for a title is proof that she’s gotten stronger. She also wants to speak up about everything she wants to do and turn her path into the most colorful journey imaginable.

Nakajima now has a chance of becoming a double singles champion because earlier in the show she retained the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title against the returning Zara Zakher. Nakajima did a Topé Suicida only for Zakher to fight fire with fire and immediately do the same move when Nakajima threw her back into the ring. Zakher then made the same mistake of rolling Nakajima back in so Nakajima could immediately hit her with a Topé Con Giro. Back in the ring Nakajima avoided the Control Z by landing on her feet and then got Zakher into the Locomotive Northern Lights Suplex to score her first defence of the All Asia Women’s Title. Nakajima said when she won this title in Thailand the cheers of the fans there left her with a wonderful memory so she wants to make this title the best it can possibly be. Zakher calls Tokyo Joshi Pro her home away from home and if the fans want her to be here, they just have to say it to TJPW.

It is a crazy enough sight to have Jushin Liger stand in a TJPW ring wearing a referee shirt. The craziness is amped up even more when the match he had to officiate was Hyper Misao against Mizuki. Before the match began, Misao told Liger that she is a superhero and the most honorable wrestler in TJPW while Mizuki is a bad person with a pitch black heart. Liger wanted to call the match fair and square, which meant he stopped Mizuki from using her Pico Pico Hammer as a weapon. Misao tried to do the Romero Special in front of Liger but couldn’t pull it off. Outside the ring Misao got on the Hypami Go but ran over Mahiro Kiryu with it after Mizuki got out of the way. Misao then tried to trap Mizuki in the ring apron but she escaped and hit under the ring while Misao unknowingly rolled up Liger into the corner post inside the apron. Mizuki then successfully lured Misao into crashing the Hypami-Go into Liger! More mishaps happened in the ring when Liger accidentally got sprayed in the eyes by Misao. Mizuki then missed the Pico Pico Hammer swing and hit Liger by mistake. She was able to frame Misao for it by passing the hammer to her so Liger saw Misao with hit. Misao complained that Liger wasn’t officiating the match properly so he hit her with the Palm Strike and put her in the Romero Special. Mizuki climbed the top rope to do the Diving Foot Stomp onto Misao while she was in the hold and Liger counted the pinfall. Liger said it’s been a while since he moved this much in the ring so he was impressed by the styles Misao and Mizuki showed off. He admitted he wanted to steal the show by doing the Romero Special but didn’t expect Mizuki to have the quick thinking to do a Double Stomp onto that and steal the spotlight for herself. Liger wouldn’t mind coming back to watch or even officiate TJPW matches more regularly.

Today was the last time VENYU would team up together and they got to right a wrong from the past. They’ve never won a tag match together in Ota Ward Gymnasium until today! They were joined by two members of O-MENZ for their entrance and then went on to beat Wakana Uehara & Toga. For once Toga got to experience what it’s like to be on the other side of a deadly Elbow Strike when VENY knocked her down with a loud one early in the match. Uehara tried her hardest to try and make Yuki Kamifuku submit to the Banana Pillow but a long struggle ended with Kamiyu getting the rope break. VENYU used the Magic Killer on Toga to get rid of her and Kamifuku went on to pin Uehara with the Diving Famouser. Kamifuku said she went into the match with the mindset that she absolutely won’t lose. It turned out the plan worked. VENY will keep that mindset for any future matches in TJPW. Uehara is coming to terms that this may actually be her last big match with Kamifuku before Kamifuku’s retirement at the end of the year. She’s going to cherish everything Kamiyu said to her in the ring today and move on forward.

O-MENZ were also involved in a big entrance for Match #4. They all danced for the combined entrance of Aja Kong, Sakura Hattori & Kumadori. Then for an added bonus Kong and Hattori joined the dance routine inside the ring! Meanwhile Kira Summer & Chika Nanase were there to learn from Chris Brookes. Summer took after him by mocking Hattori’s ninja posing. She also got to knock down Kong with a Shoulder Block after stomping on Kong’s foot to tip her off balance. Summer & Nanase were able to double team on Nanase but couldn’t do the same to Kong. She Back Suplexed Brookes away and then Double Shoulder Blocked the other two. Summer was able to delay Kong from using the steel can so she ended up hitting Hattori by mistake instead of Nanae. But Hattori survived a 2nd rope Diving Elbow from Nanase thanks to a rope break. Hattori fought out of Nanase’s finisher to stun her with an Enzuigiri and then hit the Sento Choryu for the pin while Kumadori held Brookes back from breaking it up. Kong joked her biggest challenge today was to not screw up the entance dance. Even though Brookes and his team lost he said he would like to team up with Summer & Nanase again. They can all go to DDT and fight for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as the trio of “Normal Legs”, “Slightly Short Legs” and “Super Short Legs”.

The 3 Way Tag Match went ahead with no tag rules attached and the bottom rope loosened up in order for the mascots to get into the ring easier. Tama brought a kitchen knife to the ring but agreed to hand it over to Yukinori Matsui before the match began. It then got into a three way strike off with Pokotan and Minimo that ended in a stalemate. Pom Harajuku brought out a piece of merchandise that is a towel of both Tama and Tojojo then stomped on it to taunt Kiryu. Tama got its knife back but wasn’t eager to tag in when Kiryu needed its help. The other teams instead dragged Tama into the ring and attacked it until Kiryu tried to stop them. Finally Tama stepped in to Clothesline everyone. Kiryu held onto Raku for Tama to charge in but Raku moved and Tama instead stabbed Kiryu! Harajuku then pulled off Pokotan’s head and placed it over Raku only for Raku to use it for a Headbutt. Pokotan got its head back but Raku used the Doctor Yellow to twist it around before using the same move on Harajuku to get the win. She celebrated by dancing with Minimo in the ring.

The debut of Chieri Sakimori took place in Match #2 as part of a 6-Woman Tag Match. She started off fighting Shino Suzuki and Suzuki got to show her a “tour” of the arena while applying a Headlock. HIMAWARI carried Mifu Ashida on her shoulders to charge at the other team only for them to get out of the way. The two still got their hands on Momo Sato and made it a struggle for her to tag out. Shion Kanzaki focused on using her Side Armlock move which is now called the Midnight Blues. Most of Sakimori’s ring time was spent fighting HIMAWARI where she got a nearfall with a Cross Body Block. HIMAWARI got the better of her in the end by applying an elevated version of the Half Crab Hold for the submission victory. Sakimori felt she was able to go all out for her first match and showed what she is capable of. Sato is happy to already have her first junior below her and Kanzaki is confident the 2026 Class will build a great relationship together. When asked if there are any TJPW wrestlers she looks up to, Sakimori said she wants to be dazziling like Kamifuku and Uehara.

For the opening match both Uta Takami and Ren Konatsu were brought down to the ring on moving carts so they could wave to the crowd on the way to the ring. Only Arai got to use the same cart at the very end of the show. In the match itself, Konatsu got to slow down Takami enough to hit the Aries Comet and apply the Shoulder bite. Takami got out of it with a rope break and hit her own Missile Dropkick to Konatsu. She then applied the Koala Clutch, forcing Konatsu to collapse and submit. Konatsu was hoping to win before the Next Generation Tournament begins next week but she will just have to channel her frustration into that instead. Takami believes the opening match of the show is crucial and was happy the company left it to her to pull it off today.

After intermission had finished, Rise Shirai introduced everyone to Shiori Futaba from the idol group Congrazie! Futaba will be making her pro wrestling debut on 8th November. She promised everyone she will give it her all and show off her cool side in the ring.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII”, 03/10/2026
Tokyo EBARA WAVE Arena Ota

1. Chieri Sakimori Debut Match: Chieri Sakimori Vs X
2. Aja Kong, Sakura Hattori & Kumadori Vs Chris Brookes, Kira Summer & Chika Nanase
3. 3 Way Tag Match: Raku & Minimo Vs Pom Harajuku & Pokotan Vs Mahiro Kiryu & Tama

*Special Referee: Jushin Thunder Liger
6. SETUP All Asia Women’s Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Zara Zakher

8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Suzume

We’re getting an International Championship match on the show after all, just not the International Princess Title. Instead it is the EVE International Title that will be on the line when Miyu Yamashita and Arisu Endo have their rematch from last year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. Just because Endo won last time doesn’t mean she believes she has now made it up to equal footing with Yamashita. Winning a championship off her sure would confirm it though.

The challenger for Shoko Nakajima has been found. It’s the return of Zara Zakher to Tokyo Joshi Pro! Her last appearance in TJPW was at the 2025 Las Vegas show during WrestleMania Weekend. Since then she had been signed to a WWE ID deal and according to TJPW that project was a reason why Zakher hasn’t come back to Japan until now. In the meantime she still had faint connections to TJPW in America thanks to Kitsune booking her in matches against Yamashita and Kamifuku. Now for her first match back in Japan she gets to challenge Nakajima for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title.

Something I completely forgot when Go Nagai got involved with the marketing for this show is the man is responsible for creating the character of Jushin Liger in the first place! So since Nagai is part of the show, let’s have Liger get involved too. He’s been selected to be the referee for a match between Mizuki and Hyper Misao. Both wrestlers think they will benefit from Liger’s officiating, Mizuki because she claims to be a good girl and Misao because she claims to be a super hero.

The newest rookie in TJPW is Chieri Sakimori, the first person to debut after coming through TJPW’s wrestling camps that are held several times a month at their dojo. Sakimori is from Fukuoka and stands 154cm tall. She discovered TJPW from their collab show with OCHA NORMA last December and has a rhythmic gymnastics background from her elementary and junior high school years. She also currently runs a salon, working there as an eyelash artist.

There is expected to be one or two more matches added to the card before it gets finalized.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2026”, 03/11/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Special Single Match: Jun Kasai Vs Hinata Kasai
2. Special Tag Match: To-y & Kaisei Takechi Vs KANON & Kumadori
3. Dramatic Dream Match: Zack Sabre Jr. Vs Shinya Aoki

The day after Shinya Aoki’s fight in RIZIN happened, DDT wanted to capitalize on the attention he was getting by announcing his special opponent at Sumo Hall this November. It’s going to be Zack Sabre Jr.! They were able to face each other in a tag match back in May but this will be a first time singles match between the two.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW FALL TOUR ~RAY OF HOPE IN SHINKIBA~” Results

September 14, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW FALL TOUR ~RAY OF HOPE IN SHINKIBA~”, 12/09/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
280 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. HIMAWARI defeated Shion Kanzaki with the Half Crab Hold (9:39).
2. Mizuki, Uta Takami & Mifu Ashida defeated Raku, Pom Harajuku & Chika Nanase when Mizuki pinned Nanase with the Diving Foot Stomp (9:02).
3. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Wakana Uehara & Momo Sato when Nakajima pinned Sato with an Inside Cradle (8:10).
4. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Shino Suzuki with the Famouser (9:20).
5. Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Toga defeated Yuki Aino, Haru Kazashiro & Ren Konatsu when Watanabe submitted Kazashiro with the Reverse Paradox (15:51).
6. Yuki Arai, Miyu Yamashita & Sakura Hattori defeated Suzume, Arisu Endo & Kira Summer when Yamashita pinned Summer with the Attitude Adjustment (17:27).

A fire has been lit up beneath Arisu Endo and it’s all because of Miyu Yamashita and the EVE International Title! She interrupted Yamashita’s victory speech after the main event to tell her she wants the two of them to be on equal footing. She’s beaten Yamashita the last time they had a singles match at last year’s Tokyo Princess Cup but that wasn’t enough to make her become her rival. So Endo now wants to win the EVE International Title from Yamashita in order to surpass her! Yamashita told Endo she is late because she’s had all these years to let her know how she feels. Just challenging her for the title isn’t enough to get on her level. Endo asserted herself and confirmed she will beat Yamashita and win the title from her. The two shook hands to confirm the match until Endo hit Yamashita with an Elbow Strike across the chin. Yamashita didn’t expect that and told her partners today is the first time she ever saw Endo have that look of determination on her face. The title match is set for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” at 3rd October.

While all of this was going on, Yuki Arai came to the conclusion that her current level isn’t good enough yet to beat Suzume based on how Suzume’s been wrestling against her lately. Watching Endo stand up to Yamashita right in front of her made Arai think she cannot afford to lose against wrestlers from her own generation. Sakura Hattori almost feels left out because the match announced for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” with her and Kira Summer in it has nothing at stake. However she made a guarantee to the fans that her match will not only be entertaining but also so intense it will make their eyes water! Backstage Endo admitted she doesn’t know much about EVE the British wrestling promotion or what value Yamashita’s championship has over there. She just thought the belt looked so cool when Yamashita came back to Japan with it. But if she wins the title she will go defend it in the UK even if she has to travel there by herself. She also denies ever hitting Yamashita with an Elbow Strike after the match.

Today felt like a breeze for Daydream. They were victorious over Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed in a 6-Woman Tag and know what to expect of their next challengers. They are well aware of what Yuki Aino brings to the table and Miu Watanabe felt Haru Kazashiro fought within her expectations. She noticed how dejected she looked after losing the match though and wants Kazashiro to step up for the Princess Tag Team Titles match next month. Rika Tatsumi agreed and thinks the only way Prism Greed can beat them is if they fight with a burning and fierce intensity. They need to stir up a storm instead of a breeze!

Shino Suzuki altered her tour guide spot for Yuki Kamifuku during their match. When she pointed over to her spot, she said it was the bright future of Kamiyu who is racing towards retirement while staying beautiful to the very end.

We are a few days away until “HYPE! 4” and Hyper Misao did something very rash. She had already completed her draft for the script but decided to wipe it clean and start again from scratch! She brought her laptop to the ring so she would type out her new script and left Shoko Nakajima to wrestle Wakana Uehara & Momo Sato by herself. Luckily for Nakajima, Misao finished her new draft midway through the match and got back to the ring to even the odds. The rookie Sato got the upper hand and gave Misao a Body Slam only for the pin to not count because Misao was not tagged in. Nakajima then rolled up Sato from behind for the three count, giving Kyoraku Kyomei the victory.

It was announced earlier in the day that Mizuki and Hyper Misao will face each other at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” in a match that has Jushin Liger as the special guest referee! Misao is especially excited about it because she is also a masked wrestler with a cape like Liger is. She claims to always fight fair and square so she has high hopes that Liger’s officiating will meet her standards. Mizuki was baffled by the idea at first but has come around to thinking that Liger’s officiating will work out in her favor in the end. After all, she’s such a good girl while Misao is a villainous hero.

A brand new wrestlers will make her debut on “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII”. Chieri Sakimori is from Fukuoka and she discovered Tokyo Joshi Pro from attending the OCHA NORMA collab show that took place last December. She then took part in TJPW’s Women’s Pro Wrestling Camp that runs in their dojo several times a month and made the decision to become a pro wrestler.

Shinjuku FACE

1. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Wakana Uehara

Kamiyu’s last singles match of the month is against her Ober Eats partner, Wakana Uehara. As the days count down toward her retirement it will soon be time to wonder what her final match is going to be. Maybe TJPW will put on one of their wacky Gauntlet or Rumble matches so she gets to fight everybody in short bursts one last time each.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII”, 03/10/2026

DDT “NANIWA PRO WRESTLING ROAD 2026”, 04/10/2026
Osaka City Higashiyodogawa Ward Kumin Hall

1. Naomi Yoshimura 10th Anniversary Debut Match ~ Special Single Match: Zeus Vs Naomi Yoshimura

A few weeks back Naomi Yoshimura let everyone know that he asked DDT for to book a particular opponent for his 10th Anniversary match scheduled for October. DDT honored his request and it’s now been revealed his opponent is going to be Zeus! The Osaka strongman was the person who originally opened the doors for Yoshimura to get into pro wrestling through his bodybuilding gym. When Yoshimura graduated from high school, he trained under Zeus and credits him for turning his dream of becoming a pro wrestler into reality. Zeus has kept himself busy these past few years with running Osaka Pro, the company he was successfully able to revive back in 2022. He doesn’t wrestle outside of his home promotion that often so for DDT to get him on board for a match that means a lot to Yoshimura is quite a big deal.


DDT Around The World – August 2026

September 1, 2026

There is going to come a point where I have to rename this series TJPW Around The World because DDT is solely focusing on their domestic business right now while Tokyo Joshi Pro’s wings are well and truly spread by now. Konosuke Takeshita is the DDT link that keeps the current name remaining for now and I think it won’t last that way forever. TJPW’s international plan has returned to the stage where their wrestlers are winning, defending or challenging for other company’s championships. It’s a nice reminder that these women still have a lot to offer now that they’re no longer being needed for TJPW’s main event scene. As we approach the final months of the year we have another Dallas return to look forward to. What 2027 will have on offer is currently a mystery.

Steam Jacket Brewing, Melbourne, Australia

1. Miki Fortune & Zak Sabbath defeated Kira Summer & Havok when Fortune pinned Summer after a Double Stomp/Death Valley Driver Combo (?:??).

At the end of July we saw that Kira Summer was able to beat her sister Miki Fortune in a match that dragged the whole family into their drama. They faced off again a couple of days later in Riot City Wrestling this time in an intergender tag match. Fortune teamed up with her husband Zak Sabbath to beat Summer and her tag partner Havok. Victory came thanks to Sabbath spitting Mist into Havok’s face, leaving Summer helpless against the two-on-one disadvantage from that point onward.


AEW “COLLISION”, 26/08/2026 (Aired 29/08/2026)
OVO Hydro, Glasgow, Scotland

1. Konosuke Takeshita defeated The Beast Mortos with the Raging Fire (10:18).

You know, a match between Takeshita and The Beast Mortos happening in the UK sounds like something that could have happened during the peak era of BritWres. Like during a Super Strong Style 16 weekend or something. Kyle Fletcher would have been nearby either way just like he was here. He attacked Takeshita after the match, hitting him with the AEW International Title and then laying him out with the Brainbuster.


EVE “EVE X THE WORLD 2”, 28/08/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Kay Lee Ray with the Skull Kick (26:03).
*V1 for Miyu Yamashita.

London had a packed weekend to close out the month because of AEW’s return to Wembley. Miyu Yamashita had a big role to play on Friday night where she headlined an EVE show against a newly invigorated Kay Lee Ray. She successfully retained the EVE International Title after a hard fought match but things only got more chaotic from there. First, Kris Statlander walked out. She had won the EVE Title earlier in the show and made it known she wants a rematch with Yamashita. However she brushed past Ray to get into the ring, causing Ray to get back in and start a fight with her. Yamashita kept her nose out of their business and let them fight but then Marina Shafir suddenly got in the ring behind Yamashita and grabbed her in a choke hold to leave her laying!


SETUP “UNDER THE SAME MOON – PUMI 15TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW”, 29/08/2026
The Circus Studio, G Village, Bangkok, Thailand

1. SETUP All Asia Women’s Title: Shoko Nakajima defeated Matcha (c) with the Diving Senton (11:16).
*Matcha fails in V6. Shoko Nakajima becomes the 5th SETUP All Asia Women’s Champion!

The Southeast Asian scene reached a milestone this year regarding the promoter and SETUP owner Pumi Boonyatud. He’s been part of the wrestling industry for 15 years now and put together a big show to celebrate the occasion. He was shown a video of messages from people around the Asian wrestling scene. The Japanese messages were from Hiroshi Tanahashi, Naomichi Marufuji, Sanshiro Takagi, Daisuke Sasaki, Momo Kohgo, Tetsuya Koda, Raku, Pom Harajuku, Emi Sakura and the ChocoPro roster. TJPW were invited to send over someone to challenge Matcha for the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title, a championship that’s been held by TJPW wrestlers in the past. The champion gave a pretty strong hint over who she wanted to face, telling TJPW to send someone “Big” to fight her. Needless to say, Shoko Nakajima became her next challenger and the Big Kaiju beat her to become the new All Asia Women’s Champion! Nakajima was almost beaten by Matcha’s Saito Suplex but she recovered and hit the Diving Senton for the title change.


AEW “ALL IN LONDON”, 30/08/2026
Wembley Stadium, London, England

1. AEW International Title – 3 Way Match: Kazuchika Okada defeated Kyle Fletcher (c) and Konosuke Takeshita when Okada pinned Fletcher with the Rainmaker (13:13).
*Kyle Fletcher fails in V4. Kazuchika Okada becomes the 15th AEW International Champion!

Takeshita is now taking his turn as the third wheel in this feud with The Don Callis Family. The 3 Way Match told the story of Fletcher and Kazuchika Okada purposely getting in each other’s way to and become the crown jewel of the Family. Takeshita tried his best to take advantage while fighting clean (he refused to attack his opponents with a screwdriver when he had the chance) and did a sweet looking double cover from a German Suplex for a nearfall. However Fletcher dropped Takeshita with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster onto the turnbuckle only for Okada to take down Fletcher with the Rainmaker. Okada took a split second to consider pinning Takeshita before choosing to lay on top of Fletcher for the three count. That way he can say he pinned the champion to win back this title.


KITSUNE “KAMIYU GOES HOLLYWOOD”, 30/08/2026
Xander Sports Complex, Carson, California, USA

1. Yuki Kamifuku & Alexis Lee defeated Zara Zakher & Dark Sheik when Kamifuku pinned Sheik with the Diving Famouser (?:??).

The month ended with Yuki Kamifuku and friends travelling over to California where Kitsune put her front and centre in the marketing for their show. Alexis Lee went along to team with her (and Mei Suruga was there too) for a match against Zara Zakher & Dark Sheik. Lee helped make sure that the spotlight would remain shining on Kamiyu in the end. Kamifuku gave Sheik a big Superplex and Lee cut off Zakher with a Spear. Kamifuku later Dropkicked Sheik towards the corner where Lee gave her the Sister Abigail that left Sheik stunned. Kamifuku then scored the win by hitting the Diving Famouser. After the match a bunch of the wrestlers surrounded the ring to congratulate Kamifuku for her career.

8. 13th Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: Suzume defeated Rika Tatsumi with the Spring Ring A Bell (20:46).

This year’s winner of the Tokyo Princess Cup is someone who is also on track to becoming the queen bee of Tokyo Joshi Pro! All it took was for Suzume to surpass the very person who inspired her to become a pro wrestler in the first place. She faced Rika Tatsumi in the final with both women fighting to win the tournament for the first time. Tatsumi used the fan streamers to her advantage by wrapping them all over Suzume, throwing her into the front row and then jumping into her with a Hip Attack. She then targeted Suzume’s legs in an effort to put a stop to any comebacks. Suzume fought off the persistant Hip Attacks and Choke Holds to catch Tatsumi with a counter attack. There was almost a double knockout when Tatsumi did the Twist Of Fate only for Suzume to hit back with a last ditch Ring A Bell. Tatsumi caught another Ring A Bell to turn it into the Dragon Sleeper but Suzume was able to eventually roll out of it. She then gave Tatsumi a taste of her own medicine by grabbing her neck to choke her! Tatsumi overpowered it and tried to put Suzume in a Sleeper Hold until Suzume used the ropes to bounce herself free and then launch herself into the Spring Ring A Bell for the three count!

After the match Suzume said she became stronger because she admires how much Tatsumi lives her life to the fullest. Today they got to fight each other with all of their might and Suzume couldn’t be happier. She remembers when Tatsumi would call her her arch-nemesis and she is now never going to let that go. Tatsumi gave Suzume a cheeky poke to the head and then hugged her before leaving the ring. Next, Suzume said she has now conquered the hot summer and won’t be stopping there. She called out Yuki Arai to challenge her for the Princess Of Princess Title! She thought Arai is the person who is shining the brightest in TJPW but after today Suzume thinks she can shine even brighter! She is still going to defend her International Princess Title in the meantime but she also wants to fight Arai for the Princess Title too! Arai said she wants to fight Suzume so she can also pour out her love for TJPW. She will give her the title shot at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” on 3rd October! Suzume ended the show by telling everyone the day after tomorrow will be the 7th Anniversary of her debut. Before she became a pro wrestler she thought the only dreams she could hold onto were those she had when she was a child. But TJPW has taught her she can have as many dreams as she wants at any age! Meanwhile Tatsumi backstage complained about working so hard this summer that she should be rewarded for it with a raise in salary plus other special bonuses from the company.

Hiroyo Matsumoto was one of the guests paying a visit to TJPW today. Next month she is going to team up with Miyu Yamashita at a “TAKAYAMANIA” show but today they were on opposite sides of the semi-main event tag match. Matsumoto also used this time to get a feel for Yuki Arai, taunting the champion to give her her best shot. Matsumoto would later do her part in holding back Yamashita, lifting her up into a Torture Rack while Shoko Nakajima tried to finish off Arai. But Arai dodged the 619 and threw down Nakajima with the Full Nelson Buster. She then put Nakajima in the Scorpion Death Lock and used all of her strength to make Nakajima tap out to the move. Arai said she is going to sleep well tonight because she avenged her loss to Nakajima in the tournament. As for fighting Matsumoto again, Arai thinks that is kind of a scary idea but she would like to fight her again and again to grow strong enough to beat her. Nakajima was disappointed because she considers Matsumoto to be a pioneer for kaiju wrestlers and Nakajima ended up becoming a punching bag like Anguirus in front of “Lady Godzilla”. Matsumoto admitted she doesn’t know a lot about Anguirus and promised to look it up for Nakajima.

There’s no official name yet for Mizuki, Mei Suruga & Uta Takami but the report on the TJPW website refers to them as The KAWAII Trio so let’s go with that for now. They were all a handful for their opponents. Takami accidentally snapped off Ren Konatsu’s toy sheep then annoyed her even more when she said she didn’t want it in the first place. Suruga stopped Miu Watanabe from giving Takami the Giant Swing and copied her ponytail pose. She then tried to do the Apple Mutilation on Watanabe but Watanabe powered out of it and gave her the Giant Swing instead. Arisu Endo went on a roll against Takami & Mizuki then helped Watanabe set Mizuki up for Konatsu’s Aries Comet. A scramble led to Mizuki taking out Watanabe with the Whirling Candy and then joining Takami in double teaming Konatsu until the Cutie Special ended the match.

Kira Summer spent the last month back in her home country of Australia and now has to catch up with her contemporaries in her first match back in TJPW. HIMAWARI greeted her with Hair Whips while Toga welcomed her back with Body Slams. Chika Nanase tried to even the playing field but ultimately failed. Her effort in avoiding the Absolute Zero was rewarded with an Elbow Smash from Toga that knocked her down. Toga then submitted her with the Muffler Hold that almost bent her over backwards.

For her debut in TJPW, Sumire Natsu told Yuki Kamifuku that she came here wanting to be treated like a serious wrestler. She then immediately contradicted herself by avoiding the opening lock up to gyrate for the fans instead. Kamifuku later said she wouldn’t allow the Bronco Buster to be used in TJPW so she and Natsu got into a Big Boot battle over it. Natsu eventually got to do the move on Kamifuku with Mifu Ashida cheering her on. Ober Eats were finally able to get rid of her when Wakana Uehara lifted Kamifuku up to do an Elevated Big Boot to knock Natsu out of the ring. Kamifuku then went on to pin Ashida with the Famouser. Kamifuku said backstage that as part of her retirement road she asked TJPW to bring in Natsu because she is a character unlike anyone else in the company. In the ring she is flamboyant, intense and over the top but away from that she is kind, considerate and has a strong sense of professionalism. She also thinks Uehara and Ashida could learn a lot about the various possibilities of pro wrestling just from experiencing 0.2% of Natsu. Wrestling in TJPW for the first time made Natsu so nervous, she forgot to bring her makeup bag which she admits is very unlike her. She came here with the goal of becoming a legend in one appearance rather than auditioning for a regular spot but now she is convinced she can make it here. She wants TJPW management to consider booking her more often even if it’s just as a favour to Kamiyu.

Both teams in Match #3 came up with a special rule to celebrate the end of summer. In order for a pinfall to be counted, the wrestlers would have to do a Bon Odori dance beforehand. Music played and everyone danced until Hyper Misao’s team attacked Pom Harajuku’s team from behind. Raku led her partners in the Oyasumi Express while the music played. Mahiro Kiryu used her Apology Knee Drop to try and do the dance. Yuki Aino put Shino Suzuki in the Full Nelson Of Love And Fire so Suzuki called for the music in order to try and dance her way out of the move. It actually worked and she almost pinned Aino with the Rolling Back Cradle afterward. Unfortunately Aino kicked out of it and quickly put Suzuki back in the Full Nelson to make her give up.

Two wrestlers who were both dealing with the disappointment of first round exits were put in the ring against each other in the undercard. The experience of Sakura Hattori won out against Haru Kazashiro in the end. After Kazashiro got a nearfall with a Low Cross Body, she wanted to use the Fisherman Suplex next. Instead, Hattori spun her way free and used a Leg Sweep to trip Kazashiro down. She then tangled her up in the Kitcho Kagome to pin her for the three count.

It’s been eight months since Shion Kanzaki debuted in TJPW and now that there is a rookie who debuted after her, the time has come for Kanzaki to earn her first win! She defeated Momo Sato to kick off the show, grabbing Sato in a Standing Armbar before slamming her down to the mat and wrenching in further for the submission. Sato did put up a fight by doing the Kneel Kick and a Crab Hold before that though. She said she trains with Sato a lot and knows how talented she is so she wasn’t sure she could beat her today. She wants to continue winning matches so she can go into her upcoming homecoming show with her head held high.

The show opening call that usually takes place with The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) included a special guest this time. A 4th grade elementary student named Yuzuki was chosen to join in with the group and tell everyone the show was starting. She said her favorite wrestlers are Kamifuku, Uehara and Raku.

At the start of the show it was announced that TJPW will be working with the manga author Go Nagai for “WRESTLE PRINCESS VII” later this year. Nagai is known for his works including Cutie Honey, Devilman, Mazinger Z and UFO Robot Grendizer. He was also recently inducted into the Eisner Hall Of Fame. Nagai will be collaborating to work on the visual art used for the show’s promotional material.

Recently a new mascot named Tojojo appeared on social media claiming to be the new manager of TJPW. It teased news of an announcement to be made for this show and Rise Shirai revealed it is a Rooftop Garden Pro Wrestling event taking place at Gran Hammer in Shinbashi on 10th October. The show will consist of an all you can eat BBQ, a performance by The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling), a talk show featuring TJPW wrestlers and also mat pro wrestling matches that promised to include the use of water cannons.
