5. Costume Change 6-Woman Tag Match: Rika Tatsumi, Suzume & Moka Miyamoto defeated Mizuki, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Tatsumi pinned Harajuku with the Twist Of Fate (10:38).

Everyone in the main event all wore different costumes from other members of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster. Rika Tatsumi wore Yuka Sakazaki’s costume, Suzume wore Miu Watanabe’s costume, Moka Miyamoto wore Raku’s costume, Mizuki wore Maki Itoh’s costume, Raku wore Tatsumi’s costume and Pom Harajuku wore a Nodoka-oneesan costume. Mizuki was joined by Itoh and together sang “Setsunairo” for her entrance. Along with the change in costumes there were change in behaviours too. Everyone tried wrestling as the women they were dressed as.

A team of Dog Lovers took on a team of Cat Lovers in a series of singles matches. Yuki Kamifuku, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo all had dog ears, face paint and pictures of their pet dogs hanging over their necks. Hyper Misao, Nao Kakuta & Mahiro Kiryu were the same but with cats. Noa beat Kiryu in the first match after taking the photo of Kiryu’s cat as a distraction. Then in the second match Misao pinned Endo to even the score. The third and deciding match between Kamifuku and Kakuta got interrupted when Haruna Neko was brought into the ring as a hostage for the Dog Lovers. The Cat Lovers all said they didn’t care about her which caused Neko to attack all of them in anger. Daisuke Kiso tried to calm Neko down but then she started attacking him causing the match to get called off.

Neko had a match scheduled against Miyu Yamashita but Yamashita was running late. She had wrestled in Spain earlier in the week but only just arrived home in Japan today. Sayuri Namba had to sing “Makenaide” by ZARD to pass the time until Yamashita finally arrived in the venue. She wore her wrestling gear underneath her clothes and had to undress in the ring before the match began.

A game of Werewolf took place in the 4 Way match. Each wrestler took a card, three had Citizen written on it and one said Werewolf. The Werewolf had to keep their role secret and would win if two Citizens were eliminated. If the Werewolf was beaten before that then all three Citizens would win. It led to the women acting sus over who was the Werewolf among us. Shoko Nakajima thought the Werewolf was Yuki Aino because this was her first time wrestling on a TJPW Fan Club show (she was always weirdly absent from the previous shows and replaced by mysterious masked wrestlers). When Nakajima pinned her for the elimination it was revealed she was a Citizen. Itoh then pinned Nakajima for the elimination only to find out Nakajima was a Citizen too. That meant Kaya Toribami was the Werewolf and lasted long enough to be declared the winner!

Sakazaki and Watanabe were put in a cooking contest against each other. But first they took part in a few mini games to determine what ingredients they get to use. The winner of each game got a better ingredient. Sakazaki won a hair-braiding race but Watanabe won a jump rope game and also a drawing contest (Sakazaki was asked to draw St. Francis Xavier while Watanabe drew Oda Nobunaga). They spent the rest of the show preparing the meal and Daisuke Kiso judged them before the main event. Kiso picked Sakazaki’s food as the winner, pretty much because the meat used was already a commercial product he likes.

8. Yuka Sakazaki, Maki Itoh & Haruna Neko defeated Rhia O’Reilly, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo when Sakazaki pinned Endo with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (14:15).

Today’s show was built around the Yume Pro Wrestling -dream on the ring- show Tokyo Joshi Pro put together to train women from the entertainment industry (idols, actresses, models, etc.) into pro wrestlers. Three idols have been training since May to have their first matches today. Each have a dream they want to make true by winning the competition but there can be only one in the ring. Missions took place throughout the series with points awarded to those who succeeded. Today was where the final mission was being held.

Each contestant would wrestle an Exhibition match against one of TJPW’s best. First up was Risako (currently on 13 points) taking on Rika Tatsumi. Risako did Body Slams, Shoulder Blocks and a Crab Hold. But Tatsumi dragged her down with a Sleeper Hold and switched to the Dragon Sleeper for the submission victory.

Himari Manaka (also on 13 points) was next with the tough task of fighting Miyu Yamashita. The skill mismatch was on show here with Yamashita constantly wearing down Manaka with strikes and demanding her to fight back. Manaka finally found an opening and struck with a Big Boot to the face. Her comeback was short lived though and Yamashita pinned her with a Right High Kick.

The third and final match saw Wakana Uehara (leading with 20 points) facing Shoko Nakajima. This match was kept on the ground at first until the two fired Dropkicks and Body Slams to each other back and forth. Nakajima ended up trapping Uehara in a Butterfly Lock, making the idol submit in the end.

The three contestants commented on their matches backstage. Risako didn’t know anything about wrestling but wanted to jump into something brand new and unknown to her. She did her best and is glad with her time spent in Yume Pro Wrestling. Manaka said her match was the culmination of the last six months of training. She called Yamashita a strong and frustrating opponent to fight. Uehara said she had a lot of regrets while training but has now regrets now she has wrestled a match. She is disappointed she lost but is sure she gave it everything she has. The final score will be determined by several factors. The voting was open towards fans, wrestlers, staff and also Aja Kong who was part of the competition as a special guest trainer and judge. The final results will be announced on the next episode of Yume Pro Wrestling airing on TJPW’s Youtube channel on 28th October.

Yuka Sakazaki gave Arisu Endo some words of encouragement after the main event. She told her everyone in TJPW is changing more and more. Sakazaki told Endo to go for it too. Endo is taking the advice to heart because her homecoming show in Fukushima is coming up on 21st October. Rhia O’Reilly also got to tell everyone how much fun she had on this tour, particularly with Haruna Neko because she likes cats. She definitely wants to come back some day and win next time. The likes of Hikari Noa and Maki Itoh want to fight her again.

An upset took place in the semi-main event tag match when Moka Miyamoto pinned Suzume with a Suplex Neckbreaker move called the Korokan. She named it that because the Korokan residence is where you go towards after you pass the Rashomon gate. With this new move proving to be successful, Miyamoto challenged Miu Watanabe for the International Princess Title. Watanabe never expected Miyamoto to be her first challenger but is happy it is her because they always train hard together.

Once again Pom Harajuku was entrusted with making sure Max The Impaler does not wreck the place while fighting. She learned during the match that her loud screams causes Max to hold their ears in pain so Harajuku has at least something to defend herself with. It didn’t matter though because after the tag match, Max grabbed Harajuku and knocked her out with a Lariat. At least Yuki Kamifuku and Mizuki did the polite thing and carried Harajuku back to the locker room. Mizuki thinks Harajuku is doing a good job at keeping Max distracted so she should keep doing it. That is the last thing Harajuku wants to hear right now!

Willow Nightingale will finally make her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut on 29th October and will also be on the 6th November show. She was originally meant to do a tour in July but it was postponed until now because of visa problems.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” Results

October 9, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS III”, 09/10/2022
Tokyo Dome City Hall
1,007 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Moka Miyamoto & Juria Nagano defeated Arisu Endo & Kaya Toribami when Nagano pinned Toribami with the Senpukyaku (9:24).
2. Nao Kakuta, Yuna Manase & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu & Haruna Neko when Kakuta pinned Neko with the Shiden Kai (12:11).

4. TDC (Tottemo Dekkai Chance) Rules: Mizuki defeated Hyper Misao with the Diving Foot Stomp from the Ladder (8:25).
5. Rika Tatsumi, Yuki Aino & Max The Impaler defeated Aja Kong, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Tatsumi pinned Harajuku with the Sliding Hip Attack (12:48).
6. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeated Riho & Hikari Noa when Itoh submitted Noa with the Itoh Special (13:44).
7. International Princess Title: Miu Watanabe defeated Alex Windsor (c) with the Tear Drop (10:21).
*Alex Windsor fails in V2. Miu Watanabe becomes the 9th International Princess Champion!
8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Saki Akai & Yuki Arai (c) defeated Rhia O’Reilly & Nightshade when Arai pinned Nightshade with the Finally (10:21).
*V2 for Reiwa AA Cannon.
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki defeated Shoko Nakajima (c) with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (22:44).
*Shoko Nakajima fails in V5. Yuka Sakazaki becomes the 11th Princess Of Princess Champion!

For the third time in her career, Yuka Sakazaki has become the Princess Of Princess Champion! She avenged her loss against Shoko Nakajima from June at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022” to regain the belt for the first time in 21 months. Nakajima pulled out her biggest moves to try and defend the title including the Locomotion Northern Lights Suplex as well as the Diving Senton onto the ring apron. But Sakazaki went high risk by performing the Magical Merry-Go-Round off the top turnbuckle. The Magical Girl Splash was not enough to finish off the champ so Sakazaki had to pull out the 450 version to win in the end.

Sakazaki was thrilled with the result and hugged Nakajima after the match. Nakajima wrapped the title belt around her waist in return. Sakazaki then told the fans she was finally able to beat Nakajima and got to do so in a big venue in front of a sold out crowd. She said it is because of the fans supporting Tokyo Joshi Pro that she’s been able to steadily improve her skills enough to make this moment happen. She also talked about TJPW’s growth resulting in her making new friends not just in Japan but from overseas too.

As the show was reaching its end, the entire roster gathered together and Sakazaki told them there is an important announcement about to be made. A video played containing two messages. First, the annual Ittenyon show at Korakuen Hall on 4th January will take place again in 2023 for the 8th consecutive year. Secondly, “GRAND PRINCESS ’23” is taking place at Ariake Coliseum on 18th March, 2023! It will be the first wrestling show to be held in the venue in 6 and a half years.

The growing relationship between TJPW and EVE resulted in several British wrestlers taking part in title matches below the main event. The Uprising of Rhia O’Reilly & Nightshade were brand new opponents for Reiwa AA Cannon. It was the first time Yuki Arai was taking on wrestlers from another country. However with Saki Akai’s guidance, the champions were able to retain. Together they took out O’Reilly with Double Rookie Awards and Akai got to pin Nightshade with the Finally. Akai explained in her post match interview that even though The Uprising had the size and power advantage, she could sense herself & Arai climbing up step by step towards victory as the match went on. Arai said the match is a reminder she still has a lot to learn but she got good experience from it. Akai does not know when their next defence is but she wants to spend Christmas and New Year’s with Arai and take their title reign all the way to Valentine’s Day so they can exchange their belts to each other.

Miu Watanabe’s breakout performance at this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup has paid off with her winning the International Princess Title! She beat Alex Windsor by kicking out of the Liger Bomb and pinning her with the Tear Drop. This is not the first time Watanabe has held gold in TJPW but she’s been waiting so long to win a singles title as a reward for her progress that it sure felt like her first time today. After the summer Watanabe had, she believes today’s result was destiny. The president of the idol agency The Up Up Girls are signed to once told her that the day she becomes a full-fledged pro wrestler will also be the day she becomes a full-fledged idol. She wants to do her best to grow the value of the championship while also continuing to grow as a wrestler herself. That includes defending the title overseas.

The last time Miyu Yamashita fought Riho was in 2019 for DDT so she really wanted to spend a lot of time in the ring against her today. Maki Itoh wanted to fight Riho of course and tried replicating her athletic bridging pin kickout. Hikari Noa was also happy to finally team with Riho for the first time. It was a match that Riho was really looking forward to and at the end she picked Yamashita as someone she would like to fight more often. The two of them pretty much cancelled each other out so it was up to Itoh to get the win by making Noa tap out.

Monster collided with monster when Max The Impaler and Aja Kong were put on opposite sides of the trios match. Everyone else involved were just as much trying to stop those two from tearing down the arena together than they were trying to win. Max threw Pom Harajuku around a lot and then threw her own partner Yuki Aino at Kong. Raku’s idea to arm herself with a pillow for her sleep inducing offence worked about as well as you’d expect. Kong kept Max at bay by attacking her with a steel can while Rika Tatsumi pinned Harajuku with the Sliding Hip Attack. That didn’t stop the two monsters fighting after the match and they brawled up to the stage entrance with everyone else trying to break things up. When things finally calmed down backstage, Tatsumi said they all became closer. Aino absolutely disagreed. What they could agree on was Tokyo Dome City Hall was successfully protected from the Great Monster War. Meanwhile Kong is demanding another match with Max and wants it to be held in a venue that will let her do whatever she wants!

Hyper Misao thinks she is almost evenly matches with Mizuki. The one big difference is she lacks the flowery personality of Mizuki that makes her so princess-like. So Misao asked for the match to be held under TDC (Tottemo Dekkai Chance) Rules. A large bag of random treats and goodies was brought into the ring and everything within it was allowed to be used as a weapon. The ring was soon covered in ribbons, balloons, party string while Misao and Mizuki attacked each other with Pico Pico Hammers. Misao then emptied out a box of Nakajima’s kaiju toys to slam her opponent onto. They fought up to the stage where Misao trapped Mizuki in a garbage can and walked off to find her Combat Bike. Meanwhile Mizuki quietly escaped and hid behind the can with a fire extinguisher, spraying Misao with it when she charged in from across the stage (she later revealed Sanshiro Takagi taught her how to use it). Mizuki brought her back to the ring, climbed a ladder and hit the Diving Stomp off of it to get the win. Mizuki said she proved she can be even more crazy than Misao. But she doesn’t want to be like that so please continue calling her cute.

The speed of Suzume clashed with the brawn of Ryo Mizunami in a first time match. Suzume did some dives early but was drawn into Elbow Smash battles of which Mizunami came out on top of. Suzume switched to some clever matwork but was worn down with more Elbow Smashes. When she was on her last legs, Mizunami encouraged her to stand back up under her own strength so she could be finished off with the Lariat. This was Mizunami’s second match in TJPW and she is becoming fascinated by the place. She sees the future potential in everyone here which encourages herself to keep being stronger. Suzume wants to fight her again so she can also become strong and not lose so easily.

The Actwres girl’Z alumni were victorious against the TJPW home team. Toyo Mates organised some teamwork with Haruna Neko but Yuna Manase broke it apart with a Lariat to Mahiro Kiryu. She was then hit by Yuki Kamifuku’s Big Boot and Kamifuku was wiped out from Yoshiko Hasegawa’s Flying Cross Body. Neko got rid of her with the Nekodebraker and tried to wrap things up against Nao Kakuta. But Kakuta got the upper hand and pinned Neko after a Cross-Arm DDT followed by the Shiden Kai. Backstage Kakuta said it’s been two years since she announced her participation with TJPW in TDC Hall. Two years later and she got to be with both Manase and Hasegawa again. She wrestled in a new costume today but will be evolving herself to become better. The match was Hasegawa’s first victory since returning to wrestling so it is a big deal for her. Manase said she will do her best so that the day will come when they get to fight together again.

Seven months after her debut, Juria Nagano scores her first win. She teamed with Moka Miyamoto in the opener against Arisu Endo & Kaya Toribami in a new generation clash. Miyamoto used a Rotating Brainbuster on Endo, giving Nagano the opening to hit a Whirlwind Kick on Toribami for the win. It was a move Nagano was secretly working on but it has a bad hit rate so she waited until she had the chance to finally use it. Nagano’s next goal is to win a singles match. She hasn’t won one yet and feels the need to prove she can win without the help of her seniors.

The Up Up Girls performed at the beginning of the show like they usually do. This time however the newest member Shino performed one of the songs with the rest of the group. She is still getting ready for her eventual pro wrestling debut.

There are two new trainees, both from middle school. Haru is 14 years old and a 3rd year junior high school student from Tokyo. Momo is from Saitama, also 14 years old and is in her 2nd year of junior high. Both said they will do their best to make it to their debut matches.

8. Double Main Event II Special Tag Match Osaka Monogatari ~ Destruction Demon King Vs The “It Was The Power Of Wrestling That Resolved The Worst Of Their Relationship To The Point Where They Didn’t Even See Eye To Eye. Their Belief Is That There Is Never A Normal Good Match And The Common Denominator Is An Unusual wrestling Head”z~: Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Shigehiro Irie & MAO

The final match on the show is something Yukinori Matsui had wanted to do for a long time. He believes if Shigehiro Irie & MAO can get along and be on the same page it could result in an amazing tag team. Irie & MAO had a falling out several years ago when Irie left DDT but their icy relationship began to thaw at the last New Year’s Eve show. Matsui has the happiest of all to see the two repair their friendship and has high hopes the two will work great together. Irie is also close with Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura. He held the KO-D Tag Team Titles one time with Higuchi and spent time with Yoshimura when the two wrestled in Canada together back in 2018.

Yuki Ueno said he is looking forward to facing HUB because he admires him so much. Ueno got into wrestling when his high school classmate Konosuke Takeshita became a wrestler. He quickly discovered Osaka Pro and HUB/Super Dolphin was the person who stood out to him the most. It is why Ueno uses the WR as his finisher because it was originally HUB’s move first.

The last time Tetsuya Endo Vs Masahiro Takanashi was supposed to happen both wrestlers held the top two singles titles in DDT. Things have changed a lot since then and now the match is happening under different circumstances. Endo is still hoping to gain something from the match that will help him in the future. Takanashi still represents the older years of DDT that are different to the era Tetsuya Endo broke in with. The match is just as much a clash of two different DDT ideologies as it is two former champions facing off.

DDT “GET ALIVE 2022”, 12/10/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. 4 Way Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & MJ Paul Vs Yuki “Sexy” Iino & Yumehito “Fantastic” Imanari Vs Yusuke Okada & Yuya Koroku Vs Yukio Naya & Hideki Okatani
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo, Jun Akiyama & Yuji Hino Vs HARASHIMA, Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi
3. Get Alive 4 Major Single Match! Yuki Ishida 1st Anniversary Match ~ Playfulness Series Act 4: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Yuki Ishida
4. Get Alive 4 Major Single Match!: Koju “Shining Ball” Takeda Vs Toi Kojima
5. Get Alive 4 Major Single Match!: Toru Owashi Vs Kazuki Hirata
6. Get Alive 4 Major Single Match!: Yukio Sakaguchi Vs Takeshi Masada
7. Makoto Oishi 20th Anniversary Match ~ Men’s Club Vs The 37KAMIINA: Makoto Oishi, MEN’S Teioh & Shiori Asahi Vs Yuki Ueno, MAO & Shunma Katsumata
8. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki & KANON

Daisuke Sasaki is spreading lies about Harimao being bad for DDT. He claimed at a press conference Hisaya Imabayashi is expecting the company to decline because Higuchi & Yoshimura are the KO-D Tag Champions so he is begging Sasaki & KANON to win the belts for DDT’s sake. KANON wants to add another title belt to the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles and thinks the red tag belts will look better on DAMNATION T.A. The matches building up to the title shot saw Sasaki & KANON target Higuchi’s right hand.

The Men’s Club reunion is supposed to be a one time get together to celebrate Makoto Oishi’s 20th Anniversary. However there’s been a little bit of speculation that if they win against The 37KAMIINA then Oishi & Shiori Asahi might try and convince MEN’S Teioh to revive the unit for a new generation.

Takeshi Masada has been training with a former K-1 World Champion to prepare for his match with Yukio Sakaguchi. Masada approached Hideaki Yamazaki for advice against Sakaguchi’s kicks. Yamazaki inspected Masada’s Roundhouse Kick and agreed to teach him his signature Hanging Kick to use against Sakaguchi.

There was more trickery in the press conference during Yuki Ishida’s interview. Danshoku Dieno showed up disguised as a reporter and kept asking him shameful questions. When Ishida and Imabayashi figured out it was Dieno, he attacked the both of them and left them in a beaten state with their backsides both exposed. Dieno then took over the interview and complained about having another “Final Battle” against Sanshiro Takagi on 23rd October. It wasn’t until he finished and left the room when Matsui revived both Ishida and Imabayashi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN TOUR ’22”, 24/09/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
219 Fans

1. Suzume defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Ring A Bell (6:54).
2. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Kaya Toribami with the Famouser (9:17).
3. Nao Kakuta defeated Haruna Neko with the Shiden Kai (8:38).

5. Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Yuki Aino defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Nakajima pinned Harajuku with the Northern Lights Suplex (18:23).

Today was the final Tokyo Joshi Pro show before “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” takes place on 9th October. Before the show began a contract signing took place with Shoko Nakajima and Yuka Sakazaki for their Princess Of Princess Title match. Sakazaki said the match was set up during a turning point for TJPW and it is destiny for it to happen again. She thinks her title matches with Nakajima always raise the bar so it is up to them to keep meeting the rising expectations. Nakajima brought up that TJPW will soon be reaching its 10th year of running shows. She wants to keep the Princess Title going into this period. She also made it her goal to be in another Princess Title match at Sumo Hall. The two then talked about how much they have grown since their last title match at “CYBERFIGHT FESTIVAL 2022”. They were also asked about the younger wrestlers, particularly Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai because they are both in title matches on the big show.

Later in the day Nakajima and Sakazaki faced off in the main event 8-Woman Tag Match. Nakajima ended up getting her hand raised by pinning Pom Harajuku with the Northern Lights Suplex. After the match Nakajima told Sakazaki she won’t lose to her in two weeks time. Sakazaki didn’t want to say much in response other than the time has finally come and she will see Nakajima at the match. Nakajima then called in the rest of the roster to enter the ring. Everyone gathered together and promised to give 100% of their strength to make “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” a success.

Hyper Misao tested positive for covid and was pulled off the show. The card was changed around because of it. There was no heavy contact with other members of the roster.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN TOUR ’22” Results

September 16, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW AUTUMN TOUR ’22”, 16/09/2022
Shinjuku FACE
206 Fans

1. Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta & Kaya Toribami defeated Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Noa pinned Harajuku with the Blizzard Suplex (10:50).
2. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao defeated Yuki Kamifuku and Haruna Neko when Misao pinned Neko with the Hypami Returns (7:45).
3. Rika Tatsumi defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Twist Of Fate (9:57).
4. Mei Suruga defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Gateau Invisible (10:27).
5. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Shoko Nakajima & Arisu Endo when Sakazaki pinned Endo with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (12:46).
6. International Princess Title Next Challenger Match: Miu Watanabe defeated Suzume with the Tear Drop (13:09).

A No. 1 Contender for the International Princess Title has been decided. Miu Watanabe and Suzume were the two wrestlers chosen to be in the match due to their strong performances in this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. Watanabe’s strength beat out Suzume’s speed and now she has a title shot to look forward too. It was announced earlier in the show that Alex Windsor returns to Japan next month for “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” so the title match will happen there on 9th October. Watanabe said this past summer was unforgettable for her. She does not want to stop her momentum as she climbs closer towards her seniors but needs to gain more experience and success to get there. Winning the IP Title from Windsor is something she wants to do.

Shoko Nakajima was on the losing side against Yuka Sakazaki today, showing she still has work to do to get ready for “WRESTLE PRINCESS III”. She thinks once she has completed polishing the skills she has now, she will be able to defend the Princess Of Princess Title successfully. Sakazaki lost her voice during the match. She and Mizuki made Little Mermaid jokes about it afterwards.

Match #4 was originally supposed to be Moka Miyamoto Vs Abadon but visa problems cancelled Abadon’s trip to Japan. Mei Suruga took her place and she decided to bite Miyamoto a bunch during the match. She did it to prove she is a more unpredictable opponent than Abadon and also so Miyamoto will remember her if the match with Abadon ever happens in the future. Suruga also prays that Miyamoto won’t lose against Abadon.

The trio of Hikari Noa, Nao Kakuta & Kaya Toribami went by the team name Free Chicken. That’s what you get when you mix Free WiFi with a cassowary apparently.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION” Results

September 11, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 11/09/2022
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
155 Fans

1. Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko with the Pom de Justice (8:56).
2. Dalys & Stephanie Vaquer defeated Shoko Nakajima & Moka Miyamoto when Dalys pinned Miyamoto with La Magistral Cradle (11:43).
3. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Pokotan & Demonio Uno when Sakazaki pinned Uno with the Magical Girl Splash (12:28).
4. Miyu Yamashita defeated Arisu Endo with the Skull Kick (14:04).

The 5th “TJPW INSPIRATION” was headlined by Arisu Endo taking on Miyu Yamashita in Endo’s first singles main event. She has yet to win a singles match and this is the toughest route to achieve it. She blocked an Avalanche Attitude Adjustment and used it to hit the Mt. Bandai Dropkick before applying the Camel Clutch. Yamashita reached for the rope break and relied on her kicks to take over the match, finishing Endo off with the Skull Kick. Despite losing, Endo thinks she was able to show she has grown up a little bit. Yamashita said she has high expectations for her but finds it strange how she hasn’t won a singles match yet. It might just be that Endo doesn’t realize how strong she really is.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits have long dreamed for a chance to wrestle mascots of all kinds. They took their first step towards making it come true by fighting DDT’s mascot Pokotan along with Demonio Uno, the monster of Tsurumi’s vegetable market. Yuka Sakazaki and Uno fought out to the parking lot while Mizuki and Pokotan bit each other. Back in the ring Pokotan used its own head as a weapon by hitting the Pokogoye (Kamigoye style Headbutt) to Sakazaki. Mizuki then took Pokotan out of commission by crushing its head with a Diving Double Stomp. Sakazaki was able to take care of Uno from there and got the win with the Magical Merry-Go-Round followed by the Magical Girl Splash. After the match Sakazaki called out to all mascots in Japan. The Magical Sugar Rabbits want to challenge all of them to a fight, especially if they are from Disney!

Dalys made her return to Tokyo Joshi Pro and brought along another luchadora on behalf of CMLL. She & Stephanie Vaquer were victorious against Shoko Nakajima & Moka Miyamoto. Nakajima took out both opponents with a Topé Suicida so it was left to Miyamoto to finish Dalys off. However Dalys caught her with a Modified Back Drop and used La Mistica to pin her. Nakajima was happy to wrestle Dalys again because their previous matches happened before the pandemic. It makes her want to go wrestle in Mexico again. This was Miyamoto’s first match against foreign opponents so she was able to learn how universal pro wrestling truly is.

The opening bout was Pom Harajuku beating Haruna Neko in a match between two wrestlers from the same debut class. They were also both of each other’s opponents for their first wins. Harajuku said Neko has grown into a big cat which gave her some trouble. She tried doing a rope walk but was too afraid so Neko did it to her instead. Harajuku wants to overcome that fear next time. Neko is a little upset because she lost to another classmate Mahiro Kiryu at the last “TJPW INSPIRATION” show. She has seen both of them grow this summer so she is going to try and do the same as a cat.

At the beginning of the show Suzume was given the microphone to talk about her upcoming match against Miu Watanabe on 16th September. The winner will become the No. 1 Contender for the International Princess Title. Suzume said she felt the presence of all her fans again at the summer shows where cheering was allowed. She also got to wrestle in front of new audiences through her Gatoh Move appearances as well as the “GO GIRL” show. This match is a great opportunity for her to bring TJPW to the world!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL 3 ~WOMEN ONLY BOX OFFICE~” Results

August 28, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GO GIRL 3 ~WOMEN ONLY BOX OFFICE~”, 28/08/2022
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
500 Fans

1. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko when Suzume pinned Neko with the Ring A Bell (10:58).
2. Nao Kakuta & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Moka Miyamoto & Juria Nagano when Kakuta pinned Miyamoto with the Shiden Kai.

4. 「Go Girl」 4 Major Singles Match: Maki Itoh defeated Yuki Aino with the I.S.D (ITOH SUICIDE DDT) (11:48).
5. 「Go Girl」 4 Major Singles Match: Saki Akai defeated Hikari Noa with the Arm Triangle Choke (8:18).
6. 「Go Girl」 4 Major Singles Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Yuki Arai with the Famouser (9:41).
7. TJPW THE BEST Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Shoko Nakajima, Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Miyu Yamashita when Nakajima pinned Mizuki with the Diving Senton (22:08).

In an attempt to attract more female fans to their shows, Tokyo Joshi Pro held their third “GO GIRL 3” event today which took place in front of an exclusively female audience. The first two shows held last year took place in Itabashi Green Hall. Today’s show took place in a bigger and more important venue, Korakuen Hall.

A new logo was unveiled for TJPW, replacing the pink crown that was used since its creation over 10 years ago. TJPW’s brand is “The Happiest Pro Wrestling” and the new logo was created to convey that. The design includes the TJPW abbreviation to equally appeal towards both Japanese and overseas fans. The letters rising from left to right represents momentum and a sporty atmosphere while the W at the end is shaped like a tiara.

Six of TJPW’s best were put together in the main event. It built around the “WRESTLE PRINCESS III” main event of Shoko Nakajima versus Yuka Sakazaki, placed Nakajima on the same team with Daydream and allowed The Magical Sugar Rabbits to join forces with Miyu Yamashita. All six brought out their strongest effort but it was Nakajima who stood tall in the end, pinning Mizuki with the Diving Senton.

She said she felt energetic today because she knew there were people in the audience watching their first wrestling show today along with fans who have always supported TJPW. Rika Tatsumi called the show a great success and hopes many more will happen. Miu Watanabe was happy to hear fresh voices among the cheers and thinks it would be great if they come back again. Yamashita was also happy to do a show like this in Korakuen and her feelings over it made up for her losing today. Mizuki also wanted to win but understands how strong all of her opponents are today. She wants everyone to do their best so a “GO GIRL” show can take place in front of a sold out venue. Sakazaki went further and encouraged everyone in the audience to become trainees!

Four singles matches were put together as attraction matches for the show. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Yuki Arai in the semi-main event in a match that was originally meant to take place last summer. Kamifuku did not make the mistake of thinking Arai is still the rookie she was last year. After all Arai is a champion now. Instead Kamifuku thinks TJPW have been too reliant on the idol’s promotional power and wanted to get herself out there to attract new fans. By beating Arai today, she is setting the table for Toyo Meyiu’s match against Reiwa AA Cannon for the Princess Tag Team Titles on 4th September. Arai is left feeling regret over not getting to look cool in front of the audience watching her for the first time.

Arai’s tag partner Saki Akai had no such trouble. Hikari Noa got a cheap shot in by Dropkicking Akai from behind after a pre-match handshake. Akai returned fire with Big Boots and focused on getting her opponent in a Triangle Choke. Noa kept herself in the match with Thrust Kicks until Akai would finally capture her in the submission hold, making her opponent give up. Akai thinks being an idol and doing pro wrestling has become relatively normal. She noticed there were some children in the audience so she would like to be the kind of wrestler who will inspire those kids to become pro wrestlers too. Noa was disappointed to lose right before she goes to England to try and win back the International Princess Title.

Doesn’t matter what gender the audience is. They all still agree that Maki Itoh is the cutest in the world! She expected that of course. She also has a name for her Flying DDT that she’s started to win matches with. The I.S.D stands for ITOH SUICIDE DDT. Yuki Aino had her own big move to try out. She gave Itoh a second rope Side Suplex over the ropes but it wasn’t enough for her to win the match. She still enjoyed wrestling in this environment and it makes her want to fight more.

Hyper Misao knew she was going up against Raku and her sleepy tactics so she drank a caffeinated energy drink before the match. It didn’t work and Raku was able to make her drowsy with a Sleeper Hold. Misao used her cooling spray on herself to wake up and took another gulp of the energy drink. This time it worked and she was able to beat Raku in the end. She thanked the audience crediting their cheers for keeping her awake.

This was the third time Moka Miyamoto & Juria Nagano teamed up together. They enjoy being in the same matches and feel more motivated to win together. Mahiro Kiryu was happy to win and believes it was through the power of the audience. Nao Kakuta thinks it will be great if they can get even more women in the audience.

Daisy Monkey kicked off the show with a win over Pom Harajuku & Haruna Neko. The cute and colorful atmosphere got Suzume & Arisu Endo excited. Even Harajuku, who swears she takes pro wrestling seriously admits she got a little carried away because of the crowd.

Over the Summer TJPW has been uploading episodes of Yume Pro Wrestling -dream on the ring- onto their Youtube channel. It follows a group of idols training to become a pro wrestler with one of them ultimately getting a debut match. The remaining idols are Wakana Uehara, Himari Manaka and Risako. The 4th contestant Ema pulled out late in the series because she was unable to give 100% effort alongside her other commitments. Yume Pro Wrestling will hold a one off show in Shinjuku FACE on 14th October featuring their idols in an exhibition match. It will be the final challenge in the competition to decide who will make their dream come true. Uehara and Manaka were in attendance and spoke of their enthusiasm for their final test.

Today is the 5th anniversary of The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) debut musical performance. Their schedule for today was their usual responsibilities in Tokyo Joshi Pro followed by a concert performance over in the ＠JAM EXPO 2022 in the Yokohama Arena. On today’s show Miu Watanabe was on the winning team in the main event, teaming with Shoko Nakajima to beat Daisy Monkey. Elsewhere on the card Raku lost to Yuka Sakazaki while Hikari Noa won her match as part of Free WiFi. While all of this is going on Shino, the newest member of The Up Up Girls is currently training for her debut.

Tomorrow’s “GO GIRL 3” show will unveil the new TJPW logo. Nakajima is a little sad to see the logo they’ve been using for 9 years finally go away. But she believes when something in the company changes then so too should the wrestlers and they will continue to work as hard as ever.

Hyper Misao went to see the movie “Green Bullet” and was inspired to go from super hero to a hitman for hire! She entered the 3 Way Match armed with two guns (relax they turned out to be water pistols) and asked if Mizuki or Yuki Aino will become her assistant. Mizuki agreed and took one of the guns, only to turn it on Misao. Later Misao tried to take Aino hostage at gunpoint but Mizuki coldly told them she doesn’t care what happens to her.

For the second match in a row Free WiFi grabbed Haruna Neko’s hair and bit her pigtails during their match.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW PERFECTION” Results

August 21, 2022

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW PERFECTION”, 21/08/2022
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
180 Fans

1. Rika Tatsumi defeated Kaya Toribami with the Twist Of Fate (9:14).
2. Hyper Misao defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Hypami Returns (10:20).
3. Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta defeated Suzume & Haruna Neko when Noa pinned Neko with the Blizzard Suplex (8:10).
4. Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh defeatee Yuki Aino & Raku when Yamashita pinned Raku with the Attitude Adjustment (13:20).
5. Miu Watanabe defeated Pom Harajuku with the Tear Drop (10:30).
6. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Arisu Endo when Nakajima pinned Endo with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:28).

Shoko Nakajima used today to bounce back from her disappointing performance at the Tokyo Princess Cup by getting the fall in the main event. From now until October, Nakajima wants to keep winning matches to show everyone she is a growing champion. Toyo Mates are aiming to follow a similar momentum for their Princess Tag Team Titles match on 4th September. For some reason Mahiro Kiryu led Nakajima and Yuki Kamifuku in a group apology to close out the show.

Miu Watanabe was in for a fright when Pom Harajuku had the room lights turned off and got haunted music to play over the speakers. Harajuku then used a wig and a torchlight to scare Watanabe in the dark until the lights were switched back on. She then hovered a piece of konnyaku hanging from a string over Watanabe’s face to put her off even further. Watanabe would win the match but didn’t expect to fall for Harajuku’s pranks like she did. Harajuku described her last few months as a summer full of trials to overcome. She hopes next year she will get to be a trial for someone else.

Hyper Misao pretended to act like Moka Miyamoto and was introduced as the “Yamato Nadeshiko Hero Who Protects Love And Peace In Tokyo Joshi Pro“. She promised to fight a graceful match against her opponent because she claims they were alike. That didn’t last and she was eventually doing her usual dirty tactics to win.

Since the International Princess Title is currently in England with Alex Windsor, it is now up to TJPW to send challengers after her in the hopes of bringing the belt back to Japan. Hikari Noa will be going on her first overseas booking to challenge Windsor for the title next month. The match will be held at an EVE show in London on 1st September. Noa said she is nervous because it will be her first time going abroad but she’ll try and bring the IP Title back in time for the 4th September TJPW show in Nagoya.

Max The Impaler returns to TJPW on 9th October for “WRESTLE PRINCESS III”.
