GANBARE☆PRO “MAGICIANS RED 2020”, 23/11/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Washi Sakurai Trial Single Match: Yuma 24 defeated Washi Sakurai with the Takizawa Package (10:03).
2. Ganpro Send-Off Match – Yuna Manase Road To Tag Champion: Ken Ohka & Yuna Mizumori defeated Shinichiro Tominaga & Yuna Manase when Ohka pinned Tominaga with the Flame Spear (7:32).
3. Ganpro Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Shota defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Yumehito Imanari when Shota pinned Imanari with the Gannosuke Clutch (14:32).
4. The Young General Will Avenge The General’s Death! Special Single Match: Ikuto Hidaka defeated Kouki Iwasaki with the Stray Dog High Kick (19:45).
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) defeated Moeka Haruhi with the Modified Capture Buster (16:15).
*V2 for Asuka.

Asuka praised Moeka Haruhi for giving her a tough challenge today. She wants the two of them to get along within Ganbare☆Pro and create exciting matches together. Haruhi shook her hand and said it doesn’t matter that they’re both freelancers. All the women here are Ganbare☆Joshi! Asuka agreed and told the audience there is one Ganpro show left on the schedule this year. However she will continue to be on Ganpro shows throughout 2021 to increase the value of the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title.

Backstage after the show, Shota approached Asuka and congratulated her for a good match. He said he was supposed to visit Mexico for an expedition this year but he had to cancel those plans. The only other goal he made for 2020 was become the Independent Jr. Champion. Since there is only one Ganpro show left in 2020 he wants a title shot on 26th December. Asuka wasn’t interested. Shota then said who knows what will happen to the world after December? Fortunes could change for anybody. Also Shota whispered to Asuka that she has beaten him before so it would be an easy defence. Asuka changed her mind and accepted the challenge.

Ikuto Hidaka is still undefeated in Ganpro after his win over Kouki Iwasaki. The High Kick combo that ended with the Stray Dog High Kick was too much for Iwasaki to handle.

Shota showed off his KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Title belt to the crowd after his match. He pinned Yumehito Imanari with the Gannosuke Clutch after a missed Clothesline from Shuichiro Katsumura hit Imanari by mistake. Shota talked about winning the championship with a team of wrestlers all representing Young Communication. Another wrestler from that generation is his tag partner for today Keisuke Ishii. He told Ishii that Young Communication will be holding a special reunion show on 16th January and it would not be possible to do it without Ishii being there. Ishii told him he is free that day so he will be there.

Ken Ohka gave words of encouragement to Yuna Manase and Yuna Mizumori after their match. He didn’t know the match was a send-off for them but could see the passion they displayed. He said Ganpro has climbed up out of the basement floor and now feels like a hot spring. He told W☆YUNA to go carry the soul of Ganpro when they enter tomorrow’s tag tournament in Actwres girl’Z. If W☆YUNA become champions then Ohka and Shinichiro Tominaga will have a match against them when they come back! Manase thanked Ohka for the speech but would have preferred if she got the pin in her own send-off match. The point was for her to win and get momentum! Still, she will be sure to win the tournament with Mizumori.

In a last minute change, Yasu Urano was unable to compete due to poor physical condition. Taking his place was Yuma 24, previously just known as Yuma from K-DOJO. He wore a flashy jacket during his entrance and was accompanied to the ring by Shota. He seemed to care more about showing off than trying to win which meant Washi Sakurai had a more even fight than expected. At one point Yuma did the People’s Elbow with some robot dancing mixed in. Sakurai tried fighting back but Yuma got him pinned with the Takizawa Package to win.

HARUKAZE greeted the fans before the show. She wanted to do a magic trick to make up for not being able to wrestle today but gave up because the trick was too small for the entire audience to see. She then announced the show was starting but was told by the other wrestlers she was too early.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION 2020” Results

October 6, 2020

GANBARE☆PRO “BAD COMMUNICATION 2020”, 06/10/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Ganpro Young General Vs Mad Dog Who Came Back!: Kouki Iwasaki defeated Kota Umeda with the Vertical Drop Reverse DDT (13:26).
2. US-Japan-Britain Super War!: Chris Brookes & Yuna Mizumori defeated Shota & HARUKAZE when Mizumori pinned HARUKAZE with the Mushakaeshi (10:57).
3. The Fate Of The Stars You Can Meet In Ganpro!: Takumi Iroha defeated Yuna Manase with the Running Three (11:56).
4. THE HALFEE Vs A Beautiful Woman, A Beautiful Man & A Pervert – GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Katsuzaki Shunosuke, Moehiko Harumisawa & Washi Sakurai (c) defeated Asuka, Hagane Shinno & Shinichiro Tominaga when Harumisawa pinned Tominaga with the Chaka Chaka (10:49).
*V1 for THE HALFEE.
5. Engraved In The Man You Admire, The Fight Of Ganpro! Special Single Match: Ikuto Hidaka defeated Ken Ohka with the Stray Dog High Kick (13:14).
6. A Burning Bond Or A Bond Thicker Than Blood!: Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated Shinjiro Otani & Yumehito Imanari when Ishii pinned Imanari with the Kneel Kick (27:31).

At the beginning of the show, Ken Ohka told the audience that when he was growing up in the countryside, he could only go see live pro wrestling once a year. He couldn’t wait for pro wrestling to come to his town because of this. For Ganbare☆Pro the promotion had to wait TWO years before they ran Korakuen Hall again. Today’s big show in the venue is not the destination for Ganpro, it is only the beginning. The aftermath will create momentum needed for Ganpro to run Korakuen again next year and the year after that.

In the main event Yumehito Imanari teamed with Shinjiro Otani. This was a partnership born from Imanari wrestling in ZERO1 over the last few months. This bond was on show when Otani and Imanari entered together with Imanari wearing a jacket Otani had made for him. Otani had faith in Imanari’s efforts against Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie, going so far that he wouldn’t tag in when he felt Imanari could still fight. When Otani did get involved, he was prepared for Irie in particular. Both agreed it’s been a long time since they last fought and then they went straight into Elbow Smashing each other. When Otani did his trademark Facewash on Ishii, Imanari grabbed Irie on the floor and held him in place for Otani to boot instead of Ishii. Imanari used the Death Valley Bomb and the Chubby Knee Kick on Ishii but only got a two count. His momentum was cut off with the Beast Bomber from Irie. Ishii got a nearfall with a Tiger Suplex and was almost pinned himself when Imanari countered a second Tiger Suplex into a Samson Clutch. But the end came when Ishii hit the Kneel Kick and Imanari was pinned. Both team received a year’s supply of Coroblock from the show sponsor.

Irie and Otani faced off after the match. Imanari tried to step in but Irie knocked him down and left the ring with Ishii. Otani gave encouragement to Imanari. No matter how much he struggled today he never gave up and the fans appreciate that. Those in the audience who saw Imanari get back up again and again will be inspired to do their best tomorrow. That is what pro wrestlers are capable of, to send their energy to the fans. Otani is proud of Imanari today and he will learn that the one who keeps losing will eventually win in the end. Imanari thanked Otani for the speech and thanked the fans for coming to see the show while the Coronavirus is around. He will treat wrestling like a marathon and run towards his goal.

Ohka’s attempt to surpass Ikuto Hidaka ended in defeat. It was the High Kicks that brought down Ohka and he fell to one too many. Hidaka asked the fans if the Ohka they saw today is the one they want to see? They all applauded positively. Ohka is 43 and Hidaka is 48 but age is just a number. Ohka said he will never quit even if he is 60 or 70 years old. He won’t leave the ring until he defeats Hidaka! When Ohka left, Hidaka admitted he liked what he heard so he will continue to fight in Ganpro! Next time he promises to get Ohka in the Shawn Capture.

THE HALFEE achieved their goal of defending the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles in Korakuen Hall. It was a close call and they got over it thanks to a missed Moonsault from Shinichiro Tominaga. While he scrambled to recover, Katsuzaki Shunosuke hit him with a Jumping High Kick and Moehiko Harumisawa rolled him over with the Chaka Chaka (Bridging Backslide Pin) to get the three count. Harumisawa was so pleased to win against a team of wrestlers associated with the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title that she now wants to challenge for that championship. She asked Asuka for a title shot at the next Ganpro show. Asuka said Tominaga lost today’s match, not her. However she accepts the challenge from Moeka Haruhi for 23rd Nevember.

It took the Running Three from Takumi Iroha to put Yuna Manase away. There was a show of respect afterwards when Iroha formed the letter S with her hands and Manase did the same in response. Backstage Iroha told Manase to carry Ganpro on her back like she does with Marvelous. That way they can carry each other and improve together.

The team of Chris Brookes & Yuna Mizumori came here today representing ChocoPro and even carried that promotion’s entrance curtain to the ring with them. They went on to beat Shota & HARUKAZE. Brookes set the finish up with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster and Mizumori finished the job with the Mushakaeshi.

Kota Umeda returned and it’s good to see he still has a chip on his shoulder. He slapped away Kouki Iwasaki’s handshake offer after their match. As for Iwasaki, he said his next target is Ikuto Hidaka!

Dramatic Audition 2020, Pandemic Bye-Bye, Beautiful Challengers (& A Pervert), Dramatic Dreams 7

September 15, 2020

An introductory test was held at the Tokyo Ochanomizu Dojo on Saturday for new students to join the DDT wrestling school. Ten participants who had applied over the summer went through the “DRAMATIC AUDITION 2020” overseen by Sanshiro Takagi, Yukinori Matsui, HARASHIMA, Makoto Oishi and Konosuke Takeshita. Normally these auditions would be done privately on a one by one basis. But this year there were so many applicants that an audition of this size was considered to be the better way to do it. The audition included physical tests, an appeal performance and also interviews. No decision has been made yet over who had passed or failed the audition but it will come soon.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “LIVE WITH YOUR TIME”, 21/09/2020
Tokyo Shinagawa The Grand Hall

1. Natsumi Maki Vs Hikari Noa
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Mirai Maiumi & Suzume

The youngsters are getting a Princess Tag Team Titles shot. Suzume now has a finisher (the Ring A Bell RKO) and with Mirai Maiumi has begun winning tag matches. It is Suzume’s admiration of Rika Tatsumi that pushed her to make the challenge. Miu Watanabe was in that position before the first time she fought for the Tag Titles. Now she knows what it is like being on the other end.

The last show in Natsumi Maki’s contract will be a special one. She wanted one more chance to wrestle with her Pandemic Boo-Boo partner Hikari Noa. The surprise is Noa asked to wrestle against her in a singles match instead of teaming together one more time.

This is also Mina Shirakawa’s last show in Tokyo Joshi Pro but her match has not been announced yet.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HONJITSU WA SEITEN NARI 2020” Results

September 12, 2020

GANBARE☆PRO “HONJITSU WA SEITEN NARI 2020”, 12/09/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Fujita Wrestling School Lecturer Confrontation In Ganpro: Minoru Fujita defeated Shota with the Modified Samson Clutch (17:32).
2. Ishii And Katsumata Clash For The First Time In 1 Year And 5 Months! Avenge The Soccer Field At Itabashi!: Shunma Katsumata & Yuna Manase defeated Keisuke Ishii & HARUKAZE when Manase pinned HARUKAZE with the Suzuki Dynamic (11:50).
3. GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Katsuzaki Shunosuke, Moehiko Harumisawa & Washi Sakurai defeated Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Miss Mongol (c) when Shunosuke pinned Imanari with the PK (17:05).
*Ganpocha-gun fails in V2. THE HALFEE becomes the 23rd GWC 6-Man Tag Team Champions!
4. Ganpro Type Tag Match Style Single Match: Ikuto Hidaka (w/ Minoru Fujita) defeated Shota (w/ Hagane Shinno) with the Shawn Capture (12:02).
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with the Moonsault Press (17:03).
*V1 for Asuka.

Asuka gained new found respect for Shinichiro Tominaga after their match. She thought he was just a salaryman with low monthly wages who couldn’t do anything. But today Tominaga showed her the true strength of the salaryman! After they shook hands, Asuka told the fans that she is now a Triple Crown champion because she currently holds the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title, the WWWD World Title from Diana and she also found her KO-D 10-Man Tag Team Title belt at her home recently. She wants to win more championships so she is now targeting the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles! The new champions THE HALFEE came out and told Asuka she’ll need to find two partners to challenge them. Asuka said Hagane Shinno is on her team. That was news to him. She also picks Tominaga as her other partner and decided the title match will happen at Korakuen Hall on 6th October. Katsuzaki Shunosuke (Shuichiro Katsumura) admitted he wanted to be in a singles match at Korakuen but since the challenge is coming from a champion he will accept it.

Shinno was in the building because Shota wanted him in his corner for his match against Ikuto Hidaka. Hidaka had Minoru Fujita seconding him and the match allowed tags even though it was a singles match. Yasu Urano was also in Hidaka’s corner but he played no part in the match. To make things even more confusing, Hidaka and Fujita had trouble getting along so Hidaka had to wrestle the match 1 against 2 at points. He was still able to win and everyone got along in the end.

Hidaka was challenged by Ken Ohka to a match at Korakuen. He has a great admiration for Hidaka going back to watching his matches in Battlarts. Hidaka was flattered but not feeling the idea. When he had his first match in Ganbare☆Pro last month he told everyone his age is just a number and he pushed himself to be the best he could be. Meanwhile Ohka lost to Tominaga at the same show. Isn’t Ganpro supposed to be Ohka’s promotion? It doesn’t feel like it. The two argued until Fujita came out. He understands the feelings both wrestlers have which to him means it makes sense for them to fight. He made the decision that Ohka Vs Hidaka will happen at Korakuen.

THE HALFEE defeated Ganpocha-gun to become the new GWC 6-Man Tag Team Champions. When they celebrated, Shunosuke said there are four members of THE HALFEE and he pointed to Shunma Katsumata standing over in the lobby. Moehiko Harumisawa (Moeka Haruhi) said now they got the belts, the next stage is defending them at Korakuen Hall. Washi Sakurai thanked the fans for supporting him.

Yuna Manase is working hard to prepare for her match with Takumi Iroha. Being in the ring against Keisuke Ishii helped her. She claimed to have learned the Lariat from watching Ishii do Lariat Pro matches so she used the move on him. She wants to throw stronger Lariats that she can use against Iroha.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HEAVEN’S DOOR 2020” Results

August 22, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HEAVEN’S DOOR 2020”, 22/08/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
??? Fans

1. Ganpro Vs FREEDOMS All Out Battle!: Tomoya Hirata defeated Washi Sakurai with the German Suplex (9:14).
2. 6 Men And Women Summer Story! Special Mixed 3 Way Tag Match: Shunma Katsumata & Moeka Haruhi defeated Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase and Shota & HARUKAZE when Haruhi pinned Shota with a Cradle (10:54).
3. First Single! Toyama’s Strongest Decisive Match!: Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Ken Ohka with the JK (12:26).
4. Teacher & Student Tag Vs Aikata Tag: Ikuto Hidaka & Minoru Fujita defeated Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki when Hidaka pinned Ishii with the Iwami Ginzan (14:30).
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka defeated Hagane Shinno (c) with the Modified Capture Buster (16:17).
*Hagane Shinno fails in V1. Asuka becomes the 31st Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion!

She did it! Asuka achieved her goal of becoming the youngest person to ever win the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title. She showed confidence at the beginning, sitting on the top turnbuckle so she was looking down on Hagane Shinno. The positions were reversed during the match when Shinno sat on the turnbuckle the same way before hitting a Diving Cross Body. Asuka had counters for Shinno’s late offence with a Kneel Kick and German Suplexes. Shinno kicked out of the Moonsault so it took Asuka pulling out the Capture Buster to beat him.

Asuka’s title win means the belt will not be sealed. She didn’t think she would beat Shinno today so she didn’t have a victory speech planned. She thanked Shinno and said he has a cool personality. So much happened to Asuka during the first half of the year. Her best friend died and she couldn’t travel to wrestle overseas. She was left wondering if she should end her pro wrestling career. Shinichiro Tominaga interrupted her speech, singing “Harmony At The End Of Summer” as he entered the ring. He congratulated Asuka then challenged her for the title. The title has its first ever female champion. Next it should get its first ever “Amateur” champion! Asuka wasn’t convinced so Tominaga brought up his victory over a former 2 time champion Ken Ohka earlier in the show. Asuka accepted and the two approached for a handshake. Tominaga instead Dropkicked Asuka in the knee and hit her with the JK. Tominaga shouted he will be standing in Korakuen Hall as an independent champion! He will be the first “Amateur” pro wrestling champ!

Ikuto Hidaka provoked Kouki Iwasaki to get into a fight after the semi-main event. Hidaka pinned Keisuke Ishii while Hidaka was taken out by Minoru Fujita. Afterwards Hidaka walked over to Iwasaki and celebrated in his face for added insult, causing the fight. Iwasaki told Hidaka if he enjoys being in this ring so much they should wrestle one on one. He then got a Big Boot in before they were separated again. Hidaka accepted the challenge and the match was booked for 12th September.

Part of the reason Tominaga beat Ohka was because he ambushed him during the entrances. Tominaga hit an Enzuigiri and a Moonsault for a nearfall. Ohka recovered and fought back with the Kamikaze Roll and the Fire Spear. However Tominaga would stop him with the JK to the back of the head. He hit another JK from the front and it was enough to win. Ohka did move his shoulder during the pin but it did not raise high enough to break the 3 count.

Shuichiro Katsumura had to pull out of the show with an ankle injury. Shunma Katsumata replaced him in the 3 Way Tag Match, teaming with Moeka Haruhi to form Fake HALFEE. Katsumata said afterwards he would like to appear in Ganbare☆Wrestling again as a hitman. When they won the match, Haruhi told Yumehito Imanari that she wants to win the GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles. She was going to challenge Imanari, Ohka & Miss Mongol at Korakuen but Imanari already has a match booked on that show. Imanari offered THE HALFEE a title shot on 12th September instead. Haruhi is happy with that idea. It means if THE HALFEE win the titles then they can defend them at Korakuen!

Washi Sakurai and Tomoya Hirata went hell for leather in the opener. They collided into each other with Shoulder Blocks and Knee Lifts. Sakurai tried using a Cobra Twist to control the tempt after Hirata gave him an Oklahoma Stampede. Hirata took him down with a Spear and pinned him with the German Suplex.

At the start of the show it was announced that Ganpro will return to Korakuen Hall on 6th October. This will be Ganpro’s third show in the building. Matches announced so far include Yumehito Imanari & Shinjiro Otani Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie, Yuna Manase Vs Takumi Iroha and Kouki Iwasaki Vs Kota Umeda.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HIMITSU 2020” Results

June 3, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HIMITSU 2020”, 03/06/2020
WRESTLE UNIVERSE
0 Fans

1. 4 Vs 4 Survival Tag Match: Shuichiro Katsumura, Shota, Washi Sakurai & Minoru Fujita (3) defeated Keisuke Ishii, Yumehito Imanari, Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki (2).
1a. Shota & Washi Sakurai defeated Yumehito Imanari & Kouki Iwasaki when Shota pinned Imanari with a Cradle (11:27).
1b. Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Shota & Washi Sakurai when Iwasaki submitted Sakurai with a Texas Cloverleaf (8:07).
1c. Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Shota when Iwasaki pinned Shota with a Ground Cobra Twist (1:27).
1d. Shuichiro Katsumura & Minoru Fujita defeated Shinichiro Tominaga & Kouki Iwasaki when Fujita pinned Tominaga with the Modified Samson Clutch (8:11).
1e. Shuichiro Katsumura & Minoru Fujita defeated Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki by TKO when Katsumura used the Ninja Choke on Iwasaki (16:30).

A unique match format was used for the tag team elimination match. Every round was a regular two vs two tag match. Whoever lost a fall would be eliminated and replaced by a teammate until one team was reduced to its last remaining member. Shuichiro Katsumura surprised everyone with the secret fourth member of his team. Everyone in the room expected it to be Ken Ohka. Instead it was Minoru Fujita! Katsumura even gave a big hint it was him by wearing a Fujita shirt to the ring. He jokingly called Fujita “The Fake Ken Ohka”.

The match began with Yumehito Imanari & Kouki Iwasaki on one side and Shota & Washi Sakurai on the other. Imanari tried to give Shota a Fisherman Suplex but Shota pulled him down by the hair and pinned him for the first elimination. Shinichiro Tominaga came in yet it was Iwasaki who got Sakurai to give up with a Texas Cloverleaf. Iwasaki then caught Shota in a Ground Cobra Twist for another elimination. That left Katsumura & Fujita as the last pair left on their team. Fujita summoned the spirit of Ken Ohka to fight like an underdog. He used a Modified Samson Clutch to get rid of Tominaga. That meant the last man left outside Keisuke Ishii was now able to enter the match. Katsumura trapped Iwasaki in the Ninja Choke and the match was stopped when Iwasaki went motionless.

Katsumura praised Fujita for coming to help him while Ohka wasn’t around. Fujita isn’t the Fake Ken Ohka. He is Shin Ken Ohka! Fujita explained he is in perfect condition because he has wrestled throughout the entire pandemic while everyone else stayed home. He told the others to call him whenever Ohka isn’t around. Do not call him Shin Ken Ohka. He should be more like Shin Osamu Namiguchi from Shin Ganbare☆Wrestling!

7. International Princess Title: Thunder Rosa (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima

The contract for the Princess Tag Team Titles match was signed at the beginning of yesterday’s show. Raku is excited to have a title match and wants to be taken to a world she has never seen before. Maki Itoh is happy to have somebody as pure as Raku teaming with her. She will bring the colour of Itoh out of Raku. Miu Watanabe is still feeling frustrated over losing to Raku recently. The result makes her want to spring into defending the tag titles. Rika Tatsumi started a fight with Itoh which is stronger, Tatsumi’s “diamond hips” or Itoh’s “big head”. Tatsumi is also still bitter over losing a singles match to Itoh last year.

6. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Masato Tanaka (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita

After being away from the KO-D Openweight Title scene for a while, Konosuke Takeshita is excited to be chosen as the next challenger. He remembers his dad once renting an FMW video tape with Tanaka’s matches on it. Ever since then Takeshita has followed Tanaka’s career. Now his name will be written into the Reiwa era of Tanaka’s wrestling history. Tanaka was honored to hear this but he still thinks he will beat Takeshita. He is from the land of athletes worthy of being athletes because of his background with Gold’s Gym. When the match takes place, Tanaka will make the fans think he is still strong. He named the four wrestlers he thinks are the symbols of DDT: HARASHIMA, Tetsuya Endo, Daisuke Sasaki and Konosuke Takeshita. Tanaka is one win away from having a clean sweep against all of them.

Sasaki briefly stole the DDT UNIVERSAL Title right after Chris Brookes became the first champion. He gave the belt back and apologised for his thievery. He promised to reflect on his actions and will only claim the title belt by winning it as an athlete. Brookes does not believe Sasaki is being honest. He thinks Sasaki is strange like an old dog. His promise is to put Sasaki out of his misery and maybe even stab him. Brookes warned that their match for the UNIVERSAL Title will not be a true representation of his ring skill. It will be a dirty match on both sides.

A lot more is happening on this show. Naomichu Marufuji returns to wrestle for DISASTER BOX, the Business Alliance of DAMNATION & #STRONGHEARTS are pitted against the newest DDT unit Eruption and 19 year old Hideki Okatani has his debut match.

Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Kouki Iwasaki

Sometimes having a dominant champion can be boring. Kouki Iwasaki thinks that way about Keisuke Ishii and the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title. Iwasaki wants to be the strongest wrestler in Ganpro. Beating Ishii and winning the title will make him just that.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “STAR PLATINUM 2020” Results

February 24, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “STAR PLATINUM 2020”, 24/02/2020
Tokyo Seijo Hall
125 Fans

1. Ganpro World Tryout: Shin Suzuki defeated E10 with the Besitanic (8:53).
2. Ganpro Specialty Special 3 Way Match ~HARUKAZE’s Close Call~: Kuishinbo Kamen & Kuishinbo Kamen (Shota) defeated HARUKAZE by Disqualification when HARUKAZE unmasked both Kamens (7:59).
3. Ganpro & GanJo Special Mixed Tag Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & Moeka Haruhi defeated Shinichiro Tominaga & Asuka when Katsumura submitted Tominaga with a Cross Armbreaker (12:29).
4. Ganpro Vs TTT Full Battle: Ken Ohka defeated Guts Ishijima with the Fire Spear (7:41).
5. Ganpro Vs Pro Wrestling BASARA Full Battle: Kouki Iwasaki & Washi Sakurai defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Tetsuo Usui when Iwasaki submitted Usui with a Texas Cloverleaf (12:56).
6. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) defeated Yumehito Imanari by TKO with the Double Arm Neck Lock (22:48).
*V5 for Keisuke Ishii.

A never say die attitude from Yumehito Imanari led to him having the match of his life. After a hard fight for over 20 minutes, Keisuke Ishii gave Imanari the Tiger Driver. Imanari didn’t respond so the referee began a 10 count. Imanari was able to get back to his feet on time but he couldn’t defend himself against Ishii’s next attacks. When the Double Arm Neck Lock was applied, Imanari was motionless and the match was called. Ishii has achieved the 5th defence of his current Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title reign. He gave Imanari credit and called him a wonderful pro wrestler.

Kouki Iwasaki came out to challenge Ishii next. He said Ishii always wins and that has made Ganbare☆Wrestling really boring. They are usually a tag team but Iwasaki wants to win the title from Ishii and stand in the middle of the ring as a symbol of Ganpro’s strength! Ishii reached out for a handshake but found himself ducking a High Kick from Iwasaki! Iwasaki left the ring smiling.

Washi Sakurai and Ryuichi Sekine had to be pulled apart after Match #5. They kept trying to attack each other even after Iwasaki had submitted Tetsuo Usui.

The feud between Ganpro and what’s left of the Real GUTS Army can be put to rest. Ken Ohka defeated Guts Ishijima in a clean and decisive manner.

Shuichiro Katsumura & Moeka Haruhi are continuing to dress up in THE HALFEE costumes and perform a song for their entrance. Asuka hit a big Moonsault onto them out of the ring. But back in the ring Katsumura caught Shinichiro Tominaga in a Cross Armbreaker. Tominaga tried to fight out of it until Haruhi landed a Double Stomp on him. Katsumura then tightened the Armbreaker until Tominaga gave up.

Shota disguised himself as Kuishinbo Kamen by wearing a similar looking mask. However he also wore a grey tracksuit instead of a costume similar to Kamen’s. After a collision with the Daisuke Kiso, Shota unmasked the real Kamen and threw the mask to HARUKAZE. Shota acted like he was also unmasked, despite still wearing a mask. When Kiso got back up he saw HARUKAZE holding the mask and disqualified her, rewarding the match to both of her opponents. HARUKAZE sat down in a chair to protest the result but the two Kamens lifted the chair out of the room with her still sitting on it.

The visiting E10 was described as “Now on honeymoon” during his introduction. Unfortunately he lost his match to Shin Suzuki so let’s hope the wife wasn’t around to see that.

At the start of the show Asuka announced she will be regularly wrestling in Ganpro starting from today.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “AIJO 2020” Results

February 2, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “AIJO 2020”, 02/02/2020
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR
132 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Ganpro Three Big Singles Match – Toyama Vs Hokkaido Full Battle: Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Shigeyuki Kawahara with the JK (7:58).
2. Be A Man, Ihashi! Ganpro Special Tag Match: Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie defeated Gota Ihashi & HARUKAZE when Ishii submitted HARUKAZE with the Double Arm Neck Lock (10:51).
3. Ganpro Three Big Singles Match – Lotte Vs Hiroshima Full Battle: Shiori Asahi defeated Shota with the Aun (15:03).
4. Ganpro Three Big Singles Match – Nemuro Vs Hakodate Full Battle: Tetsuhiro Kuroda defeated Kouki Iwasaki with a Lariat (12:03).
5. GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles – Ganpocha-gun Vs THE HALFEE: Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Miss Mongol (c) defeated Moehiko Harumisawa, Katsuzaki Shunosuke & Washi Sakurai when Imanari pinned Sakurai with the Chubby Knee Kick (18:43).
*V1 for Ganpocha-gun.

The final of four Ganbare☆Wrestling shows today was headlined with a GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence. The challengers are normally Moeka Haruhi, Shuichiro Katsumura & Shuhei Washida. But today they are Moehiko Harumisawa, Katsuzaki Shunosuke, Washi Sakurai… THE HALFEE! They entered the ring singing “Distance Of The Starry Sky” by THE ALFEE. But when they were done they didn’t wait for Ganpocha-gun to finish their own entrance. An ambush began the match. Things got out of hand when Miss Mongol pulled the fake eyelashes off of Harumisawa. Ken Ohka tried to give her the Brainbuster but it was countered into the Double Wrist Armsault. Sakurai kicked out of the Chubby Knee from Yumehito Imanari and slapped his way back into the match. But Imanari took him down with another Chubby Knee Kick for the finish.

Imanari thought THE HALFEE was a weird idea but he is now jealous after seeing their entrance. He was going to close out the show with a speech but Keisuke Ishii ran in and attacked him, just like he did this morning. This time Imanari blocked the Fisherman Suplex but Ishii fought harder and left him laying with the Double Arm Clutch Driver.

When Ishii left, Sakurai ignored what just happened so he could talk about his own problems. He debuted two years ago but today’s defeat was the most frustrating. He will get stronger and everyone will remember the name Washi Sakurai! Ohka shouted at Sakurai and dared him to throw a strike. Sakurai did so and Ohka responded with a Headbutt. It was all to show that Sakurai will do his best. The lesson Sakurai learned is if he is going to climb to the top he will always be attacked along the way. The show closed with THE HALFEE singing “Distance Of The Starry Sky” again.

The rest of the card was made up of regional based matches between Ganpro wrestlers against special guests. Kouki Iwasaki went against Tetsuhiro Kuroda of FMW fame. Iwasaki showed a lot of fight and kicked out of the Technan Buster at one. But his Middle Kick was countered with a Lariat that kept him down for the count.

Shota’s special match was against Shiori Asahi. The two traded submissions and looked evenly matched. The difference came when Asahi removed a turnbuckle pad during a rope break and threw Shota into the exposed corner. Shota was helpless and easily defeated after that moment.

Gota Ihashi got his request to team with HARUKAZE again. Their teamwork together is improving and it kept them motivated whenever Ishii & Shigehiro Irie took control. Late in the match Ishii put HARUKAZE in a Sleeper Hold while Irie applied a Camel Clutch to Ihashi. The underdogs grabbed each other by the hand to keep the pressure off until they were pulled away. There was no coming back after that and HARUKAZE gave up to Ishii’s Double Arm Neck Lock.

The only Ganpro regular to win one of the regional matches was Shinichiro Tominaga. He worked on Shigeyuki Kawahara’s arm until Kawahara’s guard was left open for the JK jumping knee kick.
