DDT “O HANAMI PRO WRESTLING 2026 ~BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING BEGINS AGAIN THIS YEAR~”, 09/04/2026
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Jun Akiyama, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Masami Inahata Vs Daichi Sato, Yuki Ishida & Hinata Kasai

6. KING OF DRUNK 2026 Opening Round: Chris Brookes Vs HARASHIMA Vs Kazuma Sumi Vs KANON Vs Yuki Iino Vs Rukiya

Beer Garden not only brings back the King Of Drunk tournament for another year but there is also a Nautilus reunion happening on the show too! Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura will be properly teaming up for the first time since 2020. There’s been a multi-man match or two when they’ve been on the same side but an honest to God Nautilus match you’ll have to go back five and a half year or so to find the last one.

They grow up so fast. Yuni is becoming a college student but is still too young to legally drink so it’s a bit mean of DDT to have this match happen at a Beer Garden show. At least Junta Miyawaki is allowed to take part in the fun for his first Beer Garden show. Masami Inahata too, I think.

BASARA “BASARA 305 ~OSAKA HARUNO-JIN SUMINOE~”, 12/04/2026
Osaka Suminoe Maikon Hall

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Daichi Kazato
2. FUMA, Ryuichi Sekine & Kohei Kinoshita Vs Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Banana Senga
3. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Gouma Ryu & Tsutomu Oosugi Vs Shuji Ishikawa, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano
4. Ryota Nakatsu Vs Isami Kodaka
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken

It was only back in January when SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken challenged for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. They lost the match and had a crisis of confidence but quickly patched themselves up. When Aijin Tag won the titles, the Super Family pair jumped at the chance to ask for another shot. They’re being rewarded for being so bold but it may just be that Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino see them as an easy first defence.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE IN LAS VEGAS 2026”, 16/04/2026
Pearl Theater At Palms Casino Resort, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Sakura Hattori
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs J-Rod

All three new champions coming out of Sumo Hall will be making their first defences at the Las Vegas show. It was already announced that J-Rod would get the Princess Title shot but instead of getting a rematch with Miu Watanabe, it will now be a first time singles match against Yuki Arai. J-Rod sent a message saying pro wrestling is not a fairy tale and she is ready to become the first American Princess Of Princess Champion on her own home soil. There is a chance that Arai and J-Rod will get a preliminary tag match against each other at one of the Vancouver shows but Tetsuya Koda has not made his decision yet.

Kyoraku Kyomei will be The IInspiration’s first challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Both Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao like to gamble big whenever they visit Vegas. They also took it upon themselves to get the brand new tag title belts back in TJPW’s hands. Unfortunately Misao cannot confirm if there will be Dramatic Hypami bike in Las Vegas after the one in Texas fell apart. Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee showed concern for the roster after hearing the wrestlers had a troublesome trip back home to Japan from the Texas tour. However, they claim they were able to win the titles on just three hours sleep so how will Kyoraku Kyomei fare against them when they have the full eight hours in America?

Before Suzume can make it to Golden Week, she must survive fighting the ninja Sakura Hattori under the bright lights of Vegas! Hattori handed Suzume a scroll at Sumo Hall to tell her she wanted a title shot. Another scroll has since been sent telling Suzume to be prepared because Hattori is targeting her and can take the IP Title away in an instant! As we get towards the match, Hattori is sprinting through a singles match winning streak that’s been going on ever since her gimmick switch.

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. PSYCHO & Yuya Susumu Vs Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima
2. Moeka Haruhi Vs Ram Kaichow
3. YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashihita
4. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu
5. Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Hideki “Shrek” Sekine & Akira Shoji
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) Vs Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

All of a sudden Ganbare☆Pro has a Korakuen Hall main event rematch that is three years in the making. Back in Mizuki Watase’s first reign as Spirit Of Ganbare World Champion he defeated Keisuke Ishii that was highly praised by those who took the time to watch it. Ishii won a No. 1 Contender tournament to set up the rematch and Watase wants it to be an even better fight than the first one!

Both Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi have held the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles in the past. In fact, Maeguchi was one of the first champions and Wada was one of the second champions. Together they might be the team that can beat Touchable for the belts. That would mean a lot to Maeguchi in particular because the physical championship belts did not exist when he was supposed to hold them.

I get how Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura against Hideki “Shrek” Sekine & Akira Shoji is meant to be the shooter match but I feel like this is going to be a coin flip over if it will be good or not.

All of these comedy matches Moeka Haruhi has been doing lately has lead her to this. She now has to face the Triple Six queen herself Ram Kaichow!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YES! WONDERLAND ’26”, 04/05/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Winner Of 5 Way Match

Suzume is noticing that many wrestlers in TJPW have been growing stronger lately, many of whom she hasn’t defend the title against before. She thinks there will definitely be plenty of first time matchups happening during this title reign.


GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026” Results

March 28, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026”, 28/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
134 Fans

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Keisuke Ishii defeated Yuya Susumu with the Spinning Body Bomb (5:55).
2. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: PSYCHO defeated Shuichiro Katsumura with the Reverse Clover Hold (8:49).
3. 3 Way Match: Moeka Haruhi defeated Taiwan Ramen Man and Hora-chan when Haruhi pinned Ramen Man and Hora-chan with a Double Jackknife Pin (9:10).
4. Mizuki Watase & Shigehiro Irie defeated Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motojima when Watase submitted Motojima with a Crab Hold (12:54).
5. Rin defeated YuuRI with a Locomotion School Boy (12:06).
6. Yumehito Imanari, Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Ken Ohka, Shinichiro Tominaga & Akira Shoji when Maeguchi pinned Tominaga with the Ago Shitsurei Itashimasu (15:38).
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Final: Keisuke Ishii defeated PSYCHO with a Tiger Suplex (12:07).

All this time spent demanding a match with Keisuke Ishii and Yuya Susumu lost to him in under six minutes? Well, Ishii was a man on a mission today because he was determined to become the No. 1 Contender for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. He was Ganbare☆Pro’s last hope against the outside competition when PSYCHO eliminated Shuichiro Katsumura over on the other side of the bracket. Ishii was able to beat PSYCHO in the final and he joked about the fans and probably even Mizuki Watase were disappointed over the result. However, Watase reminded Ishii of the match they had at Korakuen Hall three years ago. He wants the two of them to surpass it in the same building on 29th April! Ishii said that date is when he is at his absolute best form. Watase thought about what he meant and remembered that is the date when Ishii won the All Asia Tag Team Titles back in 2014!

At the end of Match #6 Tyson Maeguchi came to the realization that he just beat one half of the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Champions and it was thanks to the other half. The finish of the match was Yumehito Imanari hitting Shinichiro Tominaga with a Lariat and then Maeguchi finished off Tominaga with the Flying Knee Kick. Maeguchi decided he should get a title shot against Touchable at the 29th April Korakuen show. Ken Ohka offered to be his tag partner but Maeguchi turned him down to team with Takuya Wada instead. Wada agreed, having already kept his schedule open hoping to get booked on the show. He warned everyone that he didn’t come back to GanPro to be treated like a punching bag again! Michiyoshi Mishima thought over their request and pointed out both Maeguchi and Wada are former tag champions but the physcial belts did not exist when Maeguchi was on the first champion team. Mishima felt the two of them would be perfect opponents for Touchable and agreed to book the match.


Shinjuku FACE Closing Down This Year, Super Japan You’re Confusing Me

March 10, 2026

DDT “ICHIKABACHIKA 2026”, 11/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

0. Dark Match – Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer Vs Rika Tatsumi & Uta Takami

5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) Vs Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato

Rumours were swirling around yesterday when a Japanese wrestling blog Kakutolog posted a story about Shinjuku FACE possibly shutting down its doors later this year. Sadly, today the venue’s management confirmed that Shinjuku FACE will be closing down on 30th September when their fixed-term lease with the building expires. To say this is a blow for the Japanese wrestling scene is an understatement given how so many wrestling companies are based in Tokyo and have relied on Shinjuku FACE to put on shows that aren’t on the level of Korakuen Hall but are still easy to access deep in the heart of that city. If Korakuen Hall is where you go to get a heat check on a wrestling company, Shinjuku FACE is where you will experience that company’s status quo. It will have a negative effect on the CyberFight promotions for sure because of how often they’ve booked shows in there over the last 20 years.

Kota Sekifuda has been brought in to take the place of the injured Yuni in Match #1.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26: FATE IN RYOGOKU”, 15/03/2026

4. FUMA & Seiya Morohashi Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida
5. Battle Royal: Ryota Nakatsu Vs Ryuichi Sekine Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Lil’ Kraken Vs Yasu Urano Vs Shuji Ishikawa

A little change of pace for the next BASARA show. A Battle Royal will take place and with Shuji Ishikawa taking part, the winner could be likely to get a Union MAX Title shot against him in the future. That’s the only reason I see this match happening.

SUPER JAPAN “JUDGEMENT”, 24/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Hiroshi Yamato Vs Gym Trainer Kotoka Vs Ippanjin Munenori Sawa
2. Evil Uno & Ram Kaichow Vs Shota & Marika Kobashi
3. Special 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Takashi Sasaki, Naoshi Sano & Demonio Uno Vs Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Mac Matsushita

5. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Fuminori Abe
6. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Kazunari Murakami
7. Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Poison Sawada JULIE

What in the hell is this lineup? We’re getting a 6-Man Tag Match between “Goro Tsurumi’s Genes” against the “Toryumon Genes”. Evil Uno is teaming up with Ram Kaichow even though there is also Demonio Uno on the show. The Gym Trainer Kotoka is back to fight the ordinary salaryman Munenori Sawa and city council wrestler Hiroshi Yamato. That’s not all, NOSAWA Rongai is now threatening to invade Super Japan with Mummy wrestlers so who know what else is going to happen here. Maybe at the end of the show the fans vote to shut the whole thing down.

GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026”, 28/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuya Susumu
2. Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs PSYCHO
3. YuuRI Vs Rin
4. Next Challenger Determination – Final: X Vs X

A mini tournament has been put together to decide who will be the next Japanese wrestler to face Mizuki Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title (he wants to defend the belt in America next month).

A “No Spoilers” show being held on April Fool’s Day? Actually that might make it easy because nobody will be allowed to post prank results along with the real ones. By the time midnight comes it will be smooth sailing for me to post the results!

By this point Daisuke Sasaki will have started his tour of North America but while he is gone, three fakes of him are going to appear in his place. It will be up to the rest of DAMNATION T.A to deal with them.

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashihita
2. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu

Friends and foes alike will be gathering together to celebrate not only Ganbare☆Pro’s 13th Anniversary but also Ken Ohka’s 25th Anniversary in wrestling as well. He recently beat Guts Ishijima for the TTT Indie Unified Openweight Title but here they will be tag partners. Masaaki Mochizuki returns to GanPro for the first time since losing the SOG Title. Ryota Nakatsu is also coming over from BASARA to take part in Ohka’s match.

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE 2026” Results

March 7, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE 2026”, 07/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
143 Fans

1. Yumehito Imanari defeated Sentaro Motoshima with a Crab Hold (10:23).
2. Ken Ohka, Akira Shoji & Shin Suzuki defeated Choun Shiryu, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Chika when Shoji pinned Shiryu with the STO (10:13).
3. Shigehiro Irie defeated Shota Kawakami with the AUF DIE FRESSE (12:37).
4. Shoko Nakajima defeated YuuRI with the Northern Lights Suplex (16:18).
5. Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Tominaga when Susumu submitted Tominaga with the Crossface Lock (11:31).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Takuya Wada with the Venetian (16:08).
*V1 for Mizuki Watase.

The first title defence is in the bag but it almost could have gone so wrong for Mizuki Watase. He was ready to fight Takuya Wada, “The King Of Pancrase” and didn’t expect he would face Takuya Wada the pro wrestler. Watase kept simulating the match over and over to prepare for today and had the conclusion that as long as he wouldn’t give up to Wada’s submission holds, he would win in the end. That was proven right and he won by pinning Wada with the Venetian.

After the match Shuichiro Katsumura challenged Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title and the champion said it is a match suitable to headline Korakuen Hall. That comment led to a chain reaction of different wrestlers getting into the ring. Keisuke Ishii said Katsumura was jumping the gun and if anybody deserved to be in a Korakuen title match main event again it is him. Then Yuya Susumu showed up complaining that Ishii should be fighting him next instead of getting a title shot again. PSYCHO also got into the ring to let everyone know he wants the next shot without actually saying anything. Michiyoshi Mishima thought a 4 Way Match should between everyone should determine the No. 1 Contender until someone shouted it should be a tournament instead. Mishima agreed and made a one day tournament for 28th March for the No. 1 Contendership. Ishii and Susumu will finally have their singles match while Katsumura faces PSYCHO. Meanwhile Watase said he wants to go have a title defence over in America before the next Korakuen show happens!

Shigehiro Irie must be missing Germany while the 16 Carat Gold Tournament is happening over there this weekend. He used his AUF DIE FRESSE finisher (holds the opponent’s arm in a Hammerlock behind their head and then knocks them down with an Elbow Butt) to win his match.

Some other matches were made for upcoming GanPro shows. On 28th March YuuRI will face Rin, the former Rin Kadokura who recently returned to wrestling but will be retiring from the business this upcoming May. Ken Ohka also wants to form a Toyama trio with Shinichiro Tominaga & Akira Shoji at that show. Then on 29th April there are two matches booked so far. The first is Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu to celebrate Ohka’s 25th Anniversary in wrestling. The other match is YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashishita from Marigold!

GANBARE☆PRO “TODA SPECIAL MATCH”, 11/01/2026
Saitama Boat Race Toda
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Gabai Ji-chan & Yoshihiro Horaguchi defeated Choun Shiryu & Shin Suzuki when Ji-chan pinned Suzuki with the Swanton Bomb (10:51).
2. Mizuki Watase, Gota Ihashi & Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Keisuke Ishii, Yuki Kanzaki & Sentaro Motoshima when Nakamura pinned Motoshima with the Michinoku Driver II (12:13).

5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) defeated Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura when Imanari pinned Katsumura with the Lariat (9:24).
*V1 for Touchable.

A tough title defence for Touchable continued to be a dangerous situation even after they won the match. Shinichiro Tominaga stopped Minoru Suzuki from giving Yumehito Imanari the Gotch-Style Piledriver. That led to Imanari giving Shuichiro Katsumura a Reverse Tiger Driver followed by two Lariats for the victory. Suzuki was so mad over what happened he started attacking the ringside seconds as well as the referee after the match! When he eventually calmed down he admitted that for being a “shitty indie”, Ganbare☆Pro does have some interesting people hanging around. He’ll come back and next time instead of using a chair he promises to hit people with a table! Touchable feel proud with their win today. They didn’t get to beat Suzuki directly but they were able to win against him as a team. Until they get to fight him again they will focus on defending the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles against other challengers.

Akira Shoji is getting used to competing in pro wrestling matches and wants to do even more exciting things taking this direction. He hopes to one day put together a homecoming show in Toyama.

Takuya Wada was unable to appear on the show today. Yuki Kanzaki replaced him in Match #2.

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) defeated Keisuke Ishii with the Triangle Kick (18:03).
*V4 for Masaaki Mochizuki.

What looked like the crowning moment of Keisuke Ishii’s career just wasn’t going to happen in the end thanks to Masaaki Mochizuki. Ishii withstood Mochizuki’s kick heavy offence to deal big damage with the Kneel Kick. But the Exploder Suplex and High Angle Double Arm DDT afterwards couldn’t put Mochizuki away. Ishii showed his own toughness by kicking out of the Shin Saikyou High Kick as well as the Twister. Mochizuki had to use the Triangle Kick to finally put him away for a successful Spirit Of Ganbare World Title defence. After the match Mochizuki said he was aware that for the last three years the SOG World Title changed hands on Ganbare☆Pro’s final show of the year so he felt under pressure to break that streak. When he asked who will challenge him in 2026, Munetatsu Nakamura entered the ring and talked about how frustrating it is to see another company’s wrestler close out the show instead of somebody from GanPro. He admits he doesn’t have the track record to deserve a title shot but he wants to challenge Mochizuki for the championship! Mochizuki listened to the positive response from the fans and also said he loves fighting young wrestlers. However just like he is doing it this year, he said he will close out GanPro’s final show in 2026 too!

There was some good fortune coming GanPro’s way because Touchable won the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles from the BASARA team, bringing the belts back to their home company. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga didn’t have much time to celebrate with their newly won belts because Shuichiro Katsumura walked out and told them that he and Minoru Suzuki will challenge them for the titles on 11th January! Touchable believe they themselves are two wrestlers who have good (if perverted) personalities and that might be enough to beat the worst tempered wrestler in the world! Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto do believe that the friendship between Imanari & Tominaga was what won them the belts in the end today. The BASARA team doesn’t have that and ended up asking each other what do that have? They guess it’s either the power of love or the power of evil.

The start of a busy period for Sareee kicked off with her visiting GanPro for a big match celebrating YuuRI’s five years in the wrestling business. While Sareee came out on tope, she also leaves the show feeling impressed with YuuRI’s growth. She thinks the five year point is an important time for a wrestler and believes YuuRI can reach even greater heights as long as she does not become complacent. YuuRI had mixed emotions after the match. She feels satisfied that her request to fight Sareee in a singles match came true but she knows she shouldn’t be satisfied from losing. She now considers Sareee to be a rival and is certain she can one day beat her.

Katsumura’s match with Akira Shoji had plenty of Japanese MMA flavour to it. Caol Uno was there in Shoji’s corner while Yuji Shimada served as the referee for the match. Katsumura got a definitive submission win over Shoji, enough to claim that GanPro has defeated PRIDE FC (and while we’re at it K’z FACTORY gym defeated Keishukai gym) and there will be no rematch! Shoji admitted he didn’t realize until during the match just how difficult pro wrestling can be and he felt Katsumura was always one step ahead of him. However he also liked how warm hearted the response of the GanPro fans was to him and he would like to try pro wrestling again. Watching Ken Ohka work so hard for GanPro has ignited his spirit as well, which is why he came to GanPro today.

Mahiro Kiryu lost the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title at the start of the show before her scheduled match could even begin. Yuna Manase rolled her up during the show opening call to become the new champ. Then in the 4 Way Tag Match, Ohka pinned Manase with the Spear Of Flame to win the title for himself. Kiryu then rolled up Ohka from behind, pinning her own tag partner to win the belt back. Meanwhile Takashi Sasaki told Manase they should continue teaming together despite losing the match.

At the start of the show Katsumura announced GanPro will be holding auditions for new trainees. Manase said there are no age restrictions and she in particular is looking for an apprentice.


GANBARE☆PRO “FLASH GORDON 2025” Results

GANBARE☆PRO “FLASH GORDON 2025”, 13/12/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
195 Fans

1. Mizuki Watase & Rukiya defeated Yasu Urano & Rekka when Watase pinned Rekka with the Venetian (10:59).
2. Moeka Haruhi Vs Gabai Ji-chan ended in a Draw after a Double Pinfall (9:36).
3. Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Ken Ohka & Akira Shoji when Maeguchi pinned Ohka with the Ago Shitsurei Itashimasu (7:33).
4. Yuna Manase & Toga defeated YuuRI & Chika Nanase when Manase pinned Nanase after the Dynamic Hot Shot (13:27).
5. 3 Way Match: PSYCHO defeated Shuichiro Katsumura and Choun Shiryu when PSYCHO pinned Shiryu with the Got Trip (15:00).
6. Yumehito Imanari, Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima when Ishii submitted Motoshima with a Crab Hold (21:13).

The end of year title shots are safe and sound among the veterans. They crushed the mini-rebellion put together by the rookies who wanted to take over the main event scene for themselves. Keisuke Ishii said the match shows that Ganbare☆Pro has a strong sense of purpose all over from the young wrestlers to the most experienced. All that needs to be done now is for he, Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga to reclaim the titles from the current outsider champions in order to lead into the next year. Tominaga told the rookies they may feel like they are hated right now but they will understand in 10 years time.

Not only did Hot Shot get to team up in GanPro but they now have a tag team finisher to win matches with. The Dynamic Hot Shot is when Yuna Manase gives the opponent the Suzuki Dynamic along with Toga doing a Facebuster. Toga spoke about how happy she is to do the match because she looks up to Manase. She also notices how much attention she gives YuuRI but after wrestling her today she understands why. Toga also enjoys how much she is wrestling Chika Nanase lately and hopes that will continue back in Tokyo Joshi Pro. YuuRI gave motivation to Nanase by explaining how everyone who steps into a GanPro ring gets the Ganbare☆Spirit passed on to them.

Today was the first time the MMA fighter Akira Shoji wrestled in GanPro. He was teaming with Ken Ohka because the two are from Toyama. He will be back on 27th December to have a match with Shuichiro Katsumura but if there is one person he would like to meet in the ring again, it is Nobuhiko Takada given their connections to Pride FC. Shoji doesn’t know how often he will be wrestling in GanPro but while he is here he hopes to show off how sharp his skills still are.

After the show had ended, Takashi Sasaki appeared in the room wanting to talk to Yuna Manase. She had been sending him messages asking to team up and he wanted to answer her in person. He is moved by Manase’s passion and wants to team with her even though GanPro and FREEDOMS are rivals. However he wants to be sure that Manase is dedicated enough that they can go all the way towards winning the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles? She assured him that she is so they agreed to team up for the Mixed Tag Match at 27th December.

The Mixed Tag Match got other updates as well. Moeka Haruhi & Gabai Ji-Chan have decided to team up together after their match earlier in the show ended in a draw. She warns all the other teams that they will be booed against Gabai Ji-Chan no matter what they do. Also HARUKAZE received a message from Hartley Jackson asking to be added to the match, making it a 4 Way Tag. He is willing to team with anyone but would prefer HARUKAZE to be his partner. HARUKAZE agreed to have a one day return to wrestling so Lethal Weapon can team up again!


The Unofficial Extreme Champion, Ilusion Vs Kumadori, GanPro Invites Some Pals Over For New Year’s

December 5, 2025

DDT “RING FINALE 2025 ~EVERYONE IS THE STAR OF THE CURTAIN CALL~”, 21/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Soma Takao & Kazuma Sumi Vs Daichi Sato & Rukiya
1. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, Demus & Ilusion Vs Toru Owashi, Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Kazuki Hirata
2. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Shinya Aoki, Yuki Iino & Yukio Naya Vs Kazusada Higuchi, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida Vs Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai
3. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Akito Vs Jun Akiyama & Yuya Koroku
4. Special Tag Match: Yuji Nagata & Sanshiro Takagi Vs HARASHIMA & Kaisei Takechi
5. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Yasu Urano
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Jun Masaoka & Gaia Hox
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs Takeshi Masada

Some thievery as led to a confusing situation over the DDT Extreme Title. Earlier in the week Yasu Urano stole the title belt from To-y and then beat him in an unofficial match to declare himself the new champion. However the match and “title change” was not sanctioned by DDT so To-y remains the champion. The problem is To-y isn’t feeling like a champion right now because that loss to Urano still feels real to him. It doesn’t helpt that Urano is acting like the champ too and is willing to “defend” the belt against To-y, advising him to forget everything that has happened up to now and to take on a challenger’s mindset. For clarification, To-y is still the champ and if he wins here it will be the 6th successful defence of his reign (even though he wonders if his number of defences has been reset).

DDT is giving everyone the early Christmas treat of Minoru Suzuki fighting Jun Akiyama in a tag match.

DDT “HOLY FIGHT NIGHT 2025”, 24/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Ilusion Vs Kumadori

It’s taken a while for this match to happen. Ilusion Vs Kumadori was meant to take place back in July but a knee injury suffered by Kumadori cancelled it. The grudge between the two took some time to resurface but the last couple of weeks have sped it up to where the match can finally take place. Christmas Eve is the date for these two masked men to settle their differences one on one.

GANBARE☆PRO “BEFORE SUNRISE 2025”, 27/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Mizuki Watase, Shigehiro Irie, Munetatsu Nakamura & Sentaro Motoshima Vs Jun Kasai, Takuya Wada, Tyson Maeguchi & Shota Kawakami
2. Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Akira Shoji
3. YuuRI 5th Anniversary Match: YuuRI Vs Sareee
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Keisuke Ishii

Two guest wrestlers have been added to the show. It looks like Akira Shoji will stick around in Ganbare☆Pro for more than just one match. He’ll be at Korakuen Hall to test out Shuichiro Katsumura’s grappling skills. Also the GanPro Vs FREEDOMS rivarly is relaxed for the holidays, allowing Jun Kasai take part in an 8-Man Tag match filled with GanPro associated wrestlers on both teams.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

Three returning guests have been announced for the show so far. They are Yuka Sakazaki, Sareee and Lei Ying Lee. At the moment Lee is the TNA Knockouts World Champion and is being promoted as such by Tokyo Joshi Pro. The title has been defended in TJPW once before in Las Vegas earlier this year so maybe Japan can be where it gets defended in the company for a second time.


GANBARE☆PRO “WICKER MAN 2025” Results

November 29, 2025

GANBARE☆PRO “WICKER MAN 2025”, 29/11/2025
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
143 Fans

1. Choun Shiryu, Kaori Yoneyama & Yuna Manase defeated Moeka Haruhi, Chika & MASA☆TAKA when Shiryu pinned TAKA with the Chinese Bombs Away (8:08).
2. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Tatsuhito Takaiwa & Sentaro Motoshima when Imanari submitted Motoshima with a Bull Naked Choke (13:39).
3. Keisuke Ishii, Hagane Shinno & Munetatsu Nakamura defeated Mizuki Watase, Rukiya & Shota Kawakami when Ishii pinned Kawakami with the Kneel Kick (15:12).
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI when Nakatsu submitted YuuRI with a Sleeper Hold (15:34).
*V3 for Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto.
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) defeated Ken Ohka with the Shin Saikyou High Kick (15:47).
*V3 for Masaaki Mochizuki.

Ken Ohka’s bad luck at fighting for singles championships continues as he failed to win his own promotion’s top title in his fourth attempt. He tried using a Dragon Suplex when the Spear Of Flame couldn’t get him the win but Masaaki Mochizuki wore him down with kicks until the Shin Saikyou High Kick finished the job. After the match Mochizuki said Ohka had gotten better since their previous match back in April but no matter how much Ohka closes the gap, Mochizuki will always be better than him. He then called out for someone to challenge him otherwise he will keep the Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title going into 2026. Keisuke Ishii entered the ring and said he now believes he is the one to beat him. Mochizuki recognised Ishii because of his Kneel Kick and tried to remember if they competed in the same All Japan Jr. Heavyweight tournament about ten years ago. But he wants to see if his High Kick is better than Ishii’s Kneel Kick so the title match will take place at Korakuen Hall on 27th December. Ishii said he has main evented Korakuen six times but never won any of those matches. Mochizuki told him that what happened six times will happen seven times so be prepared.

Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI came so close to bringing the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles back home but a mistimed attack blew their chances. While Katsumura trapped Takumi Tsukamoto in an Ankle Lock, YuuRI grabbed Ryota Nakatsu in a Sleeper Hold. Katsumura then went to throw a High Kick at Nakatsu but he ducked and YuuRI got hit instead. Nakatsu then put YuuRI in the Rear Naked Choke, forcing YuuRI to pass out in the move. While the champions celebrated their win, Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga entered the ring to challenge them for the tag titles on 27th December. They are also now going by the tag team name Touchable and pointed out they are not some hastily put together duo like the recent batch of title challengers. Touchable have been wrestling together in Ganbare☆Pro as opponents and partners since April.

At the end of the show Ishii, Imanari & Tominaga were confronted by Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima and a fight broke out between the two groups. The younger wrestlers then challenged the veterans to a 6-Man Tag Match on 13th December and if they win, they will take the title shots booked for Korakuen Hall!

It was announced that Yuna Manase is bringing Toga and Chika Nanase from Tokyo Joshi Pro over for the 13th December show. The match will be Hot Shot against YuuRI & Nanase.

GANBARE☆PRO “TBA”, 29/11/2025
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & YuuRI

As shown in recent Ganbare☆Pro events, YuuRI does not want to be just confined to the Ganbare☆Joshi division. She thinks she is good enough to beat the BASARA team and bring the Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles back home. She needs a tag partner though and lucky for her, Shuichiro Katsumura has her back. Ryota Nakatsu & Takumi Tsukamoto aren’t feeling worried about them though.

It’s not official yet but Ken Ohka has been chosen to be Masaaki Mochizuki’s next opponent for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title after he begged to Michiyoshi Mishima for the opportunity. GanPro want the match to happen at this show but Dragon Gate also has an event going on in Okinawa the same day. Negotiations are under way to get Mochizuki booked for this show.

DDT “BE AMBITIOUS ~AUTUMN BATTLE~”, 30/11/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title – Weapon Gamble Match: To-y (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani
3. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Shinya Aoki
4. KO-D Openweight Title & DDT Universal Title: Yuki Ueno (c/c) Vs Super Sasadango Machine

An extra caveat of the Weapon Rumble is the weapons must be bought using only money that To-y and Sanshiro Takagi have won from gambling in the leadup to the match.

GANBARE☆PRO “BEFORE SUNRISE 2025”, 27/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. YuuRI 5th Anniversary Match: YuuRI Vs Sareee

It’s been five years of YuuRI but can she make it to six when Sareee is standing in her way?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’26”, 04/01/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Suzume

Ittenyon is getting something completely fresh for its headline match. As far as I know, Miu Watanabe and Suzume have only had two previous singles matches together and they were both in 2022. The next time they go one on one it will be the headline bout at Korakuen Hall with the Princess Of Princess Title on the line!
