BASARA “BASARA 301 ~UTAGE~” Results

March 6, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 301 ~UTAGE~”, 06/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans

1. Fuminori Abe defeated Takeru Inoue with the O-Manjigatame (9:52).
2. SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) when SAGAT pinned Hiroshi with the Gore Grind (9:51).

4. Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Tatsuya Hanami defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Yasu Urano when Tsukamoto pinned Nakano with the Spinning Zudon (15:24).
5. Union MAX Title – 3 Way Match: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated Daichi Kazato and Tsutomu Oosugi when Ishikawa pinned Kazato with the Splash Mountain (15:29).
*V2 for Shuji Ishikawa.

Shuji Ishikawa survived a 3 Way Match against two opponents who spent most of the match teaming up against him. The alliance between Daichi Kazato and Tsutomu Oosugi eventually broke down and that proved to be both of their downfalls. With them divided, Ishikawa found his spot to attack and won the match by pinning Kazato with the Splash Mountain. After the match he said a wrestler’s individuality is what makes them tick although Kazato is maybe a little too unique. Backstage Ishikawa said the match has sharpened his mind and he’ll keep defending his Union MAX Title. Oosugi took the responsibility for moving away from the plan with Kazato. He admitted to changing his mind halfway through the match when he started thinking he could win by himself. Kazato explained how the true enemy is the one within yourself. He thinks they can both beat Ishikawa next time if they can convince Takeru Inoue to join in and make the fight three against one.

The two teams in the upcoming Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match quickly got into a brawl with each other in Match #4. Takumi Tsukamoto ended up scoring the win for his side after giving Takato Nakano the Spinning Zudon. Despite feeling sore, Nakano said Aijin Tag are ready for the next warm up match as well as the tag title match later this month. Masato Kamino said Aijin Tag will win the Iron Fist Tag Titles because the belts were made for them. Tsukamoto is confident that he and Daiki Shimomura have what it takes to beat them on 27th March. They also doubt the challengers love the championships as much as they claim they do.

BASARA “BASARA 300 ~UTAGE~” Results

February 20, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 300 ~UTAGE~”, 20/02/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Chicharito Shoki defeated Takeru Inoue with the Floración (7:50).
2. 3 Way Match: Yasu Urano defeated Isami Kodaka and SAGAT when Urano pinned SAGAT with a Backslide Pin (10:00).
3. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Banana Senga when Nakano pinned Hiroshi with the Modified Kenkatabami (13:18).
4. Shuji Ishikawa, Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated FUMA, Ryuichi Sekine & Lil’ Kraken when Oosugi pinned Kraken with the Tsuki no Ishi (11:49).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida when Tsukamoto pinned Ishida with the Running Zudon (16:41).
*V2 for Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura.

The Iron Fist Tag Team Champions had some sumo spirit of their own to combat Harimao and their “Dosukoi” efforts. Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida both had Daiki Shimomura scouted and came up with ways to keep him grounded. But Takumi Tsukamoto knew to target Ishida and had counters for the Flame Palm. Nakatsu made the mistake of missing Tsukamoto with a Lariat and hitting Ishida with it instead. He made up for it by breaking the pin after the Zudon but Tsukamoto couldn’t be stopped from using the running version of his finisher to pin Ishida.

After the match Tsukamoto praised his opponents and told Ishida he loves sumo so much he may as well be an expert of the sport. He knew Ishida was a strong sumo wrestlers so he was incredibly happy to fight him today. He then told Shimomura he doesn’t expect anybody to come out and challenge them so they should leave. However Aijin Tag then walked out and told the champions they are going to get the next title shot. Tsukamoto then played it off like he was expecting this to happen and Aijin Tag just fell into his trap. Takato Nakano told him Aijin Tag will show everyone that they are BASARA’s longest running tag team for a reason. He also later told Masato Kamino that he’s been messing around too much lately.

All three participants in the next Union MAX Title match were teaming together today. Daichi Kazato made it a difficult experience for the team because he spent more time trying to provoke Shuji Ishikawa than he did their opponents. Then whenever he did try to fight the other team he kept self-destructing with his moves. Kazato finally found his groove doing double team moves with Tsutomu Oosugi until Ishikawa decided to throw him out of the ring with the Splash Mountain! Oosugi then knocked Ishikawa out of the ring and got to win the match by himself. Ishikawa criticised Kazato, calling him a boring and self-centred wrestler. Kazato wants to know why Ishikawa really came back to BASARA and likened him to a middle aged man returning to his alma mater to regain his self-esteem. Meanwhile Oosugi later let some reporters know that he will be using Kazato as his secret weapon to win the 3 Way Match for the MAX Title!

Shuji In BASARA, Max Heart Final, “Newcomer” Akito, GanPro Title Matches

February 2, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 299 ~TAKAGARI 32~”, 11/02/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Yuki Ishida
2. SAGAT Vs Lil’ Kraken
3. Isami Kodaka & Ryuma Sekimo Vs Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano
4. Takumi Tsukamoto & Masato Kamino Vs FUMA & Seiya Morohashi
5. Shuji Ishikawa, Ryota Nakatsu & Daichi Kazato Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga

As long as Shuji Ishikawa hold the Union MAX Title, he is going to treat BASARA like a second home. He is currently scheduled to be on all of their shows for February and March.

The Super Family are hitting some sort of rough patch after failing to win the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on the last show. Lil’ Kraken wonders if they should split up but SAGAT still wants to team with him. After taking a day to think about it, the decision was made to have the two face each other in a singles bout. Is this just something to get their frustrations out or will it be a (super) family rift that cannot be healed?

Yuki Ishida from DDT makes another appearance here. He’ll take on BASARA’s young prospect Takeru Inoue in the opener.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 14/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ren Konatsu Vs Shion Kanzaki
2. Miyu Yamashita, Kaya Toribami, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Hyper Misao, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Kira Summer & Chika Nanase
3. Shoko Nakajima & Sara Phoenix Vs Suzume & Arisu Endo
4. Max The Impaler, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Ryo Mizunami, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro
5. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi Vs Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida
6. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu (c) Vs Aja Kong
7. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Toga
8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Mizuki & Uta Takami Vs Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara

It’s new territory for the Max Heart Tournament because the current Princess Tag Team Champions have reached the final for the first time. Ober Eats are now just one win away from winning the whole thing and living up to the votes they got for the Best Tag Team category in the recent Tokyo Sports Awards. Meanwhile Mizuki & Uta Takami are on something of a miracle run as a tag team, although they want to prove they deserve to be here through hard work and well earned success instead of luck and good fortune.

There’s an alternate timeline where Daydream and Kyoto Tag could have been a semi final match in the tournament. Instead they’re facing each other on the undercard to help build up March’s Princess Of Princess Title match between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai.

Opponents have now become tag partners. Shoko Nakajima liked wrestling Sara Phoenix so much she wants to team with her. They may end up being a bounce back team for Daisy Monkey though.

A first win awaits for either Ren Konatsu or Shion Kanzaki.

DDT “NEPPA OVER FLOWERS 5 ~THE ONLY SAUNA IN THE WORLD~”, 14/02/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Young Boy Akito Nishigaki Shinjuku FACE Debut Match: Young Boy Akito Nishigaki Vs Rukiya
2. Shinya Aoki Vs Hinata Kasai
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Brahman Sasaki Vs Daichi Sato, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shin KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, MAO & Takeshi Masada Vs Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Koju Takeda
5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Pokotan
6. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y

This is the full card but the only confirmation of the match order is the opener and the main event. Yuki Ueno challenges Pokotan to a one on one battle while Akito returns to his rookie roots to wrestle as Akito Nishigaki once more. Also there is another Brahman Brother among us! Unless I’m reading the name wrong and it is Barman Sasaki instead of Brahman Sasaki.

GANBARE☆PRO “A SCANNER DARKLY 2026”, 22/02/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Masaaki Mochizuki (c) Vs Mizuki Watase

The time has come for Mizuki Watase to challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title again. He won the title before against seemingly impossible odds and can repeat the feat if he can dethrone Masaaki Mochizuki.

GANBARE☆PRO “KINKI CHIHO NO ARU BASHO NI TSUITE 2026”, 01/03/2026
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) Vs Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya

When a tag match pitting Touchable against Ken Ohka & Hiroaki Moriya was put together for Ganbare☆Pro’s return to Osaka, Ohka asked for the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles to be put on the line.

“GAISEN SAKURA PRO WRESTLING”, 11/04/2026
Okayama Shinjo Village

BASARA “BASARA 298 ~10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW~” Results

January 31, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 298 ~10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW~”, 31/01/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano defeated Isami Kodaka & Takeru Inoue when Fujita pinned Kodaka with the Modified Samson Clutch (12:19).
2. Ayato Yoshida defeated Daichi Kazato with a Pinfall after Kazato missed the Firebird Splash (11:36).
3. GRACE PROJECT Offer Match: Tomoya Hirata, Captain Grace & Violento Jack defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Jack pinned Hiroshi with the San Buena Ventura (11:03).
4. Ryota Nakatsu, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida defeated Ryuichi Sekine, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Nakatsu pinned Nakano with the V Slider (11:52).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) defeated SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken when Shimomura pinned Kraken with the Swanton Bomb (13:10).
*V1 for Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura.
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated FUMA with the Giant Slam (19:53).
*V1 for Shuji Ishikawa.

The last time Shuji Ishikawa and FUMA fought each other for the Union MAX Title was way back in April 2015. Over ten years later they went through with the rematch. This time it was Ishikawa who won and he even kicked out of the Jawbreaker kick. FUMA kicked out of the Kamigoye and the Splash Mountain so Ishikawa needed to use the Giant Slam to finally put him away. Ishikawa thanked FUMA after the match because it made him push himself further to become even stronger. He then invited all of the BASARA wrestlers out to talk about the company’s 10th Anniversary. Union Pro closed down on its 10th Anniversary but Ishikawa is confident BASARA will continue on to reach its 15th and even 20th anniversaries. As long as he holds a championship with Union’s name on it he will consider BASARA like it is home but he will still be a stubborn champion for everyone here to try and beat. He exited the ring and left the rest of the locker room to end the show by celebrating BASARA’s happy occasion.

Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura overcame the Super Family to remain the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions. They praised the challengers for having better teamwork than their own and are now waiting to see who they will defend the titles against next. Shimomura will be celebrating his own 10th Anniversary in March but he wants to have a title defence before then. SAGAT asked Lil’ Kraken backstage if they are going to split up because that was the plan if they lost without showing any growth. He would like them to continue teaming together and Kraken told him he will spend the night thinking about it.

After a three month hiatus to deal with a neck injury, Isami Kodaka returned to action today. Despite losing the match he is happy his comeback happened safely and he is excited to see what BASARA will be like after reaching the ten year milestone.

At the start of the show Ryuichi Sekine promoted the next Gaisen Sakura Pro Wrestling show taking place in Okayama on 11th April.

BASARA “BASARA 297 ~UTAGE~” Results

January 16, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 297 ~UTAGE~”, 16/01/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takeru Inoue defeated Ryuma Sekimo with the Tiger Driver (9:09).
2. Ayumu Honda defeated Daichi Kazato with the Cross Armbreaker (8:50).
3. 3 Way Match: Tsutomu Oosugi (w/ Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi) defeated Ryota Nakatsu and Takato Nakano when Oosugi pinned Nakano with the Tsuki no Ishi (6:27).
4. SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Banana Senga when Kraken pinned Shimomura with the period. (11:58).
5. Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano defeated FUMA & Masato Kamino when Ishikawa pinned Kamino with the Running Knee Lift (15:49).

In the build up to Shuji Ishikawa defending the Union MAX Title against FUMA at the end of the month, Ishikawa won today’s tag match and warned he can get even better for the title match because he was fighting a fever this week going into today’s show. He promised to play “Union Rocker” again when he defends the title but FUMA said he will play the song instead when he wins the belt from Ishikawa!

Lil’ Kraken claims that the Dropkick he took from Daiki Shimomura at the start of the match was so strong it made him lose sight in one eye but he was able to get revenge in the end by beating him. He said the Super Family will win the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles on 31st January and will send the current champions to the depths of despair. SAGAT said they will win by any means necessary but they won’t cheat. Takumi Tsukamoto admitted neither he or Shimomura are rich people but their spirits are still high. They think of themselves as a high-end supermarket like Seijo Ishii (even though Tsukamoto admittedly shops at My Basket). So instead of falling down the depths of despair, the champions will instead ascend to BASARA heaven!

Match #3 was changed from a tag match into a 3 Way because Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi suffered from a case of gout in his leg and was unable to wrestle. He originally told the others to do a 2 Vs 1 Match instead but Tsutomu Oosugi got mad at having to fight the other team by himself. Ryota Nakatsu and Takato Nakano kept targeting him anyway but Hiroshi interfered to help Oosugi win the match.

Daichi Kazato wanted to announce who his mystery opponent would be on 31st January. Ayato Yoshida’s music played on the speakers as the reveal but Kazato didn’t recognise it. He needed Ayumu Honda to tell him who it was based on the song. When Honda said it belongs to Yoshida, Kazato told him he doesn’t know who that is and left the ring while the song played again. Kazato took the announcement a bit more seriously backstage, saying this may be the only opportunity to do this match before the snap election in the House Of Representatives takes place and Japanese society gets even crazier.

At the start of the show Isami Kodaka confirmed he is returning from his absence on 31st January for BASARA’s 10th Anniversary show.

2. GRACE PROJECT Offer Match: Tomoya Hirata, Captain Grace & Violento Jack Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
3. Ryuichi Sekine, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino Vs Ryota Nakatsu, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida

5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs FUMA

The Union MAX Title is throwing itself back to its origins now that Shuji Ishikawa is the new champion. His first challenger is FUMA who has held the title both in Union Pro and in BASARA. Ishikawa joked they should bring back an old Union gimmick and have this be a 1,000 Roses Death Match for old time’s sake. He’s taking things a bit more seriously after FUMA said he hunts down boars that are heavier than Ishikawa.

When it comes to dominant factions in BASARA, the Super Family has not been one of them. But they’ve become tenacious enough to earn SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken a shot at the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. The new champs Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura don’t want to lose the belts to anybody and they especially don’t want to lose to the Super Family!

As he promised a while back, Isami Kodaka returns from his absence in time for BASARA’s anniversary.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 14/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu (c) Vs Aja Kong
2. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Toga
3. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: X & X Vs X & X

The prodigal daughter of TJPW MIRAI has come back to win the International Princess Title that was beyond her grasp in the past. Now she’s looking to the future where she sees an opponent with a similar smash heavy style as hers waiting to challenge her. Toga wants to show everyone she can get the job done without needing help from Yuna Manase or anyone else so she was the first one to ask MIRAI for a title shot.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title just can’t get away from Mahiro Kiryu. Every time she loses the belt, fate makes sure she finds a way to win it back. She now has a pinfall over Aja Kong because of this but that means Kong now wants to fight Kiryu one on one! She knows she can easily take the belt from her whenever she wants but she has enough pride to do it in the ring with a proper wrestling match. The bout will still go ahead if Kiryu loses the title to someone else beforehand.

The two title matches booked for this show are why Toga and Kiryu are not competing in this year’s Max Heart Tournament.

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

1. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs X & X
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Second time’s the charm for Yuki Arai. She avenged her squash to Miyu Yamashita in the recent 6-Woman Elimination match and will now get to face Miu Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title. She couldn’t win the belt at Ota Ward Gymnasium last year but can she do it in Sumo Hall this year?

There are so many ways the Special Tag Match can go. It will be Konosuke Takeshita’s first time wrestling in TJPW (he was meant to be part of their US debut in 2020 but that show was cancelled due to covid) and he will be teaming up with his wife Yuka Sakazaki to make it a bigger deal. Their opponents have not been announced yet. The recent news of Shingo Takagi & Natsupoi led to some jokes about them being the other team in a battle of the happy couples. I think enough time has passed that the issue Sakazaki had with Natsupoi leaving TJPW years ago is now water under the bridge. The opponents are likely another mixed pair tag team though, one that doesn’t have to be romantically attached to each other.

The current list of guests who will wrestle on the show are Sareee, Lei Ying Lee, Aja Kong, Andreza Giant Panda and Minimo-chan with Mari Yaguchi accompanying it. Also Max The Impaler will be at the show.
