For the second year in a row Ganbare☆Pro held a one day tournament pitting three teams of different generations against each other. There was the 1970’s team, the 1980’s team and due to a shortage of members an alliance combining the Heisei era along with wrestlers born in the 1960’s. But just like last year it was the 1980’s team that ended up winning it. Yumehito Imanari told everyone afterward that his generation listened to TRF and he wants to tell AKIRA & Ricky Fuji in particular just how great the band is. The Heisei wrestlers weren’t in a dancing mood thought and promised to get revenge if a third tournament ever takes place.
The 1970’s team lost their chance of winning the tournament thanks to Shota Kawakami. The rookie took a major beating from Shuichiro Katsumura in their match that made its way outside the ring. When Katsumura was done and started walking back to the ring, Kawakami suddenly grabbed him and held him back as much as he could. He succeeded in stopping Katsumura from entering the ring in time, ending the match in a double countout.
Yuya Susumu from FREEDOMS was at the show and approached Munetatsu Nakamura after hearing that Nakamura wanted to fight him in a match. Susumu told him they can have the match at FREEDOM’s next Korakuen Hall show on 19th March and he will also put the King Of FREEDOM World Jr. Heavyweight Title on the line! He bragged that he can beat Nakamura within five minutes under normal circumstances. Nakamura responded that he will beat Susumu at Korakuen and take the belt from him. He then refused Susumu’s offer of a handshake.
At the start of the show Mizuki Watase announced he will return from his torn ACL injury on the 11th April Korakuen show! He only suffered his injury this past December and even his doctors are amazed by how fast his recovery is.
GANBARE☆PRO “GANBARE☆PRO WRESTLING IN SHIBUYA HIKARIE – MOV MARKET”, 22/02/2025 Tokyo Shibuya Hikarie Creative Lounge MOV ??? Fans – Unannounced
1. Mat Wrestling Falls Count Anywhere Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Shuichiro Katsumura defeated Yumehito Imanari & Shota Kawakami when Ohka pinned Kawakami with the Flame Spear (14:27).
The match was slightly changed because Keisuke Ishii fell sick and couldn’t appear. Ken Ohka who was meant to be the special referee instead took Ishii’s place in the Falls Count Anywhere Match. Shota Kawakami ended up taking signature moves from everybody including the Ganbare☆Pro wrestlers who were not part of the match.
GANBARE☆PRO “JUSTICE LEAGUE 2025”, 16/03/2025 Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Fuminori Abe
There was also a press conference where Yumehito Imanari and Michiyoshi Mishima announced who the No. 1 Contender for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title will be. Imanari revealed he nominated Fuminori Abe to get the shot on 16th March. One of Imanari’s goals as champion is to fight the wrestlers he lost to on his journey to winning the SOG Title. He remembers facing Abe for the ZERO1 World Junior Heavyweight Title & ZERO1 International Junior Heavyweight Title back in 2021 and losing to him. It was a very important match for him because the original plan was for Abe to face Shinjiro Otani in the main event of a Korakuen Hall show but Otani got injured and Imanari was chosen to be his replacement. He never forgotten what Abe told him that day and he will always be a fan of him. So now he gets to make a wish come true by putting together this rematch. Abe said at the time of the match he felt great pity towards Imanari for the position he was suddenly put in but as the match went on, Abe experienced emotions he had never felt before. After he won he felt a sense of pride for giving Imanari the opportunity. He would have liked to do the rematch in Korakuen but after giving the idea some thought, he instead asked for it to take place at Takashimadaira Kumin Center because it is a truly independent venue. He also made sure to keep 11th April free in his schedule because he is confident he will win the championship and have his first defence at GanPro’s Korakuen Hall show that day.
GANBARE☆PRO “MAD MAX 2025 ~ GANBARE☆PRO WRESTLING 12TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE”, 11/04/2025 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Ken Ohka Vs X
2. Special 6-Woman Tag Match: Moeka Haruhi, YuuRI & Ami Manase Vs Yuna Manase, Hazuki & Koguma
3. Special Tag Team Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuji Nagata & Tatsuhito Takaiwa
A few matches for the 11th April Korakuen show were also announced at the event. Shuichiro Katsumura revealed he will be teaming with Ishii on the show to take on New Japan legends Yuji Nagata and Tatsuhito Takaiwa! Ishii sent in a message explaining that GanPro wanted him to team with Nagata on the show but he thought it would be better for them to be on opposing teams. The story of the match in Ishii’s mind will be him getting to beat the people he looked up to as a boy. Katsumura said he also has an attachment to those two wrestlers. In 2006 he lost to Yuji’s brother Katsuhiko Nagata at the end of year K-1 “DYNAMITE!!” show and remembers Yuji saluting the fans in the ring after the fight. So he would love it if Yuji brought Katsuhiko along to be at ringside for the show. Katsumura also joked about being a New Japan kid teaming with Ishii who is an All Japan kid.
A 6-Woman Tag Match was also announced pitting Ganbare☆Joshi against a special trio of wrestlers reuniting together. Yuna Manase is bringing in Hazuki & Koguma from Stardom to team with her! The three of them are all from the same fifth generation of Stardom wrestlers but their careers split off in different directions. Manase was able to re-establish contact with them at an Ice Ribbon show last year and hatched a plan for her to team up with FWC for the first time ever. She also had reasons for choosing the wrestlers on the GanJo team. YuuRI is around the same age as Hazuki & Koguma so Manase wants to see them face off. Moeka Haruhi recently celebrated her 20th Anniversary and Manase wanted to be her opponent for the Anniversary match. Last but not least, Ami Manase is still Yuna’s younger sister and only just recently started training for wrestling again after being away for over a year.
Ohka claims that GanPro’s zodiac cycle has come full circle because he was born in the Year Of The Snake and GanPro’s first Korakuen show since going independent is also happening during the Year Of The Snake. He feels like this is fake and predicts he is going to be involved in a big singles match on the show. Something that will be on par with his match against Jushin Liger from Union Pro in 2009.

To-y is going to fight somebody who might love saunas more than he does. Maybe the tag team facing Akito & Yuki Iino will have to go ALL OUT to beat them.

7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku
Four teams remain and after next weekend they will be down to two. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara are bonding together with a “Ayase Town Hills New Hills” style and had a much easier time in the 2nd Round than they did in the 1st. The difficulty level for them has ramped way back up because their next opponents are Pompaler. The tactic of Max The Impaler throwing Pom Harajuku at the nearest opponent hasn’t been beat yet in the tournament so far. Kyoraku Kyomei are one step away from reaching the final for a second time. However Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao know full well not to let their guards down now, especially after HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki scored a little bit of an upset to reach this far.
It didn’t take long for the newcomer Mifu Ashida to be thrown into the ring with Mizuki. The champ needs some fresh meat.
DDT “NEW YEAR, NEW HERO. 2025 ~A NEW STORY BEGINS~”, 26/01/2025 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. Soma Takao & Yukio Naya Vs Yuki Iino & Daichi Sato
2. MAO & Toru Owashi Vs Masahiro Takanashi & Antonio Honda
3. Daisuke Sasaki, KANON & MJ Paul Vs Jun Akiyama, HARASHIMA & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
4. Road To D GENERATIONS CUP 2025! Special 8-Man Tag Match: Takeshi Masada, Keigo Nakamura, Ilusion & Yuki Ishida Vs To-y, Yuya Koroku, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
5. DDT Extreme Title – Life’s Sparkle Rules: Danshoku Dieno (c) Vs Gorgeous Matsuno
6. DDT Universal Title: Gringo Loco (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Shuji Ishikawa
Chris Brookes has figured out he cannot become stronger than Shuji Ishikawa, but he can become more handsome than his challenger. He has been taking care of his face by wearing face masks every day until the show takes place. He also promised to win the match so Ishikawa will not sing karaoke in Korakuen Hall again.
Only a one count will be needed to win the DDT Extreme Title match. Danshoku Dieno came up with the idea because he wants to see Gorgeous Matsuno fight with all of his might. The most important thing in life is the next second in front of you. A person’s experience does not matter if they don’t make the most of that second.
1. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated SAGAT & Antonio Honda when Senga pinned SAGAT after the Shining Gongitsune Mistaken Attack from Honda (8:07).
2. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Gouma Ryu with a Front High Kick (9:10).
3. Takato Nakano & Shota Kawakami defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Takeru Inoue when Nakano pinned Inoue with the Ken Katabami (13:15).
4. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomuta defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi when Sekine submitted FUMA with the Let’s Combine (13:38).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) defeated Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken when Abe pinned Kazato after the Period. Misfire from Kraken (13:32). *V4 for Astronauts.
6. Union MAX Title: Masato Kamino defeated Minoru Fujita (c) with the Lariat (18:32). *Minoru Fujita fails in V8. Masato Kamino becomes the 22nd Union MAX Champion!
BASARA in 2024 began with Minoru Fujita winning the Union MAX Title and ends with him losing it. Masato Kamino was able to kick out after taking the SAYONARA twice and hit the Lariat only for Fujita to kick out of that too. Kamino fought hard to hit another Lariat and when he finally did he was able to win the match with it. He wished Fujita to rest well for the great job he did as champion and thanked the fans for supporting BASARA this year. Ten years ago in Chiba he never imagined he would ever win a singles championship and now he is the man on top for a company. He will treat the belt like it is a baton Fujita passed over to him and will not give it up easily. He then nominated his tag partner Takato Nakano to be his first challenger.
Some miscommunication at the worst time cost Daichi Kazato & Lil’ Kraken their chance to become the new Iron Fist Tag Team Champions. Kazato was switching positions back and forth with Fuminori Abe and they paused in front of Lil’ Kraken. Abe was in front so Kraken charged in to use his finisher called the Period. Abe ducked the move and Kazato took the blow, causing both of them to fall back with Abe landing on top for the pinfall. At least there is no anger between Kazato & Kraken over what happened. Abe thinks Kazato has evolved as a wrestler while Takuya Nomura thinks he is brainwashing everyone. Astronauts also noticed there were some foreign fans in attendance today. Abe wonders what those fans think BASARA wrestling is like compared to what they will see in the Tokyo Dome next week?
The match between Sento Minzoku and Asian Kung-Fu Generation was heated from the get go and continued after the match ended. Both sides continued fighting after the finish and had to be kept apart.
There was also continued fighting between Takeru Inoue and Shota Kawakami after Match #3. Both are rookies who debuted this year and wanted to see who was better. They started trading Elbow Strikes after the match and Inoue then chased Kawakami away from ringside.
Takumi Tsukamoto purposely dressed up like an office worker to throw shade at Gouma Ryu. He said before their match that Ryu is only good for doing trials. Ryu disagreed and wanted to prove he can wrestle too. Then when Tsukamoto took a breather outside the ring during the match Ryu taunted him for running away from pro wrestling. Tsukamoto got back in to finish the match and ended up winning with a couple of Front High Kicks. Ryu kicked out of the first one at the one count but was beaten with the second kick.

Today was the day for Ganbare☆Joshi to show their spirit and take over main event. The division’s top two names Yuna Manase & YuuRI fought Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase with the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles on the line. Manase & YuuRI tried fighting fire with fire against the champions in order to show just how determined they were to win. Sadly the admirable performance ended in defeat. Irie took care of YuuRI with a Lariat and Watase used his signature moves on Manase. She kept kicking out of the pins so Watase pulled off his elbow pad and hit an exposed Elbow Butt to finally get the three count.
Watase praised Nippon Ganbare☆Rengo after the match for being so strong. He thought he would never lose to a team of women who can only try hard but this match convinced him it could happen after all. He encouraged GanJo to train more so they can have a rematch. Manase revealed she recently spoke to Shinjiro Otani and he gave her advice on how to win the match. He told her to keep going until she wins. She thanked Irie for fighting her & YuuRI today so he could get to understand their feelings. YuuRI said one day a GanJo wrestler will win a GanPro championship.
Over the last month Munetatsu Nakamura has been losing matches to Gaia Hox & Jun Masaoka across the wrestling scene. The pair known as F-SWAG have beaten Nakamura on both GanPro and FREEDOMS shows leading Nakamura to make a rash decision today. He was meant to wrestle Keisuke Ishii on a singles match but when he found out F-SWAG was in the area today he convinced Ishii to team with him for a tag match against them instead. F-SWAG won the match and have now beaten Nakamura for the third time in a row. The rookie still wants to keep fighting them no matter what company it will take place in. Masaoka doesn’t deny that Nakamura loves wrestling and GanPro but he explained that the rookie hasn’t changed much in their matches together. Ishii though? Masaoka enjoyed wrestling him and would be happy to have a singles match against him anytime. Hox also called out Shota Kawakami to stand with Nakamura if this rivalry against F-SWAG is going to continue.

7. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Makoto Oishi’s Last DDT Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata (c) Vs Makoto Oishi & Danshoku Dieno
A press conference was held today for ShunMao and the challengers to sign the KO-D Tag Team Titles match contract. Danshoku Dieno appeared alone and called Makoto Oishi to find out where he is. Oishi said he overslept and he was already in a taxi on the way over to the building. After a 10 minute wait Oishi still had not appeared so the contract signing went ahead without him. Dieno apologized dogeza style and convinced ShunMao to let him sign the contract without the need for Oishi’s signature. Shunma Katsumata called it a sign of Oishi being careless and MAO said when the match happens he will deliver the final blow to Oishi. When it was time for the group photo, Oishi finally arrived and entered the room intending to ambush the champions. But MAO noticed him coming and kicked him in the groin. Oishi admitted he was going to attack MAO to give his team the advantage but he really did oversleep and arrived to the conference late. He explained he went to be late last night, woke up this morning to do his laundry, went back to bed until almost noon. Oishi apologised by doing a full vertical headstand that he calls the ultimate dogeza. He then talked about the title match but mistakingly said it was happened on 3rd November, not 3rd October. MAO scolded him for getting the date wrong and called it was a disgrace.
Oishi’s last day in DDT has gotten even busier. He helped train Kaisei Takechi for his wrestling matches and Takechi wants to show his appreciation for it by teaming with him before he goes. Oishi already has a KO-D Tag Titles match lined up but ShunMao gave their blessing for him to do the Takechi match too. It sounds like the Takechi match will happen before the title match on the day.

DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024 TOUR IN FUKUOKA”, 13/10/2024 Acros Fukuoka
1. O-40 Title – 3 Way Match: Azul Dragon (c) Vs Toru Owashi Vs Danshoku Dieno
2. Special Tag Match: MAO & Shunma Katsumata Vs Kota Umeda & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
3. DDT Universal Title: Yuki Iino (c) Vs To-y
After a whole bunch of failed cash in attempts, To-y lost his chance at fighting Yuki Iino for the DDT Universal Title when the Right To Challenge Shield was taken away from him. However To-y didn’t let that stop him from still trying to get Iino’s attention. No matter how many times Iino took him down with the Spear, To-y refused to give up. Iino now sees how much heart To-y is showing him so he agreed to finally give him his title shot.
I found out where Azul Dragon defended the O-40 Title. He held an event back in June called Karaokekan Pro Wrestling and retained the title in a 3 Way Match with a bunch of silly rules attached to it.
GANBARE☆PRO “HANARE BANARE NI 2024”, 14/10/2024 Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
1. Shota Kawakami Vs Yuki Kanzaki
2. Shuichiro Katsumura, Choun-Shiryu & Takuya Wada Vs Masamune, Yumehito Imanari & Tyson Maeguchi
3. Ken Ohka Vs Daisuke®️

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Yuna Manase & YuuRI
The three singles matches on the show are put together to see if the new wrestlers can show what the future of Ganbare☆Pro will be like. It’s a big spot for the likes of Munetatsu Nakamura, Daisuke®️, Shota Kawakami and maybe even Yuki Kanzaki. But if Keisuke Ishii and Ken Ohka win their matches in dominant ways that too could show GanPro’s future is not going to change much.
DDT “GOD BLESS DDT 2024”, 20/10/2024 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
1. DDT Extreme Title: Akito (c) Vs Danshoku Dieno
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs HARASHIMA
In the past there have been three singles matches Shinya Aoki and HARASHIMA had against each other. Aoki has a 2-1 record against HARASHIMA but still considers his opponent to be the undisputed ace of DDT. He is looking forward to finding out if he can make it three wins out of four or if HARASHIMA will even the score and win the KO-D Openweight Title in the process.
The new DDT Extreme Champion wasted no time in choosing his first challenger. Akito has always admired Dieno for being a symbol of DDT’s creativity. Even when Akito feuded with Pheromones he hated seeing Dieno play in a supporting role rather than the group leader. Akito played a part in taking away Pheromones from Dieno so he wants to flip roles and give Dieno a chance to take his beloved Extreme Title away from him.
