BASARA “BASARA 282 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~” Results

June 25, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 282 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~”, 25/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Masato Kamino defeated Shota Kofuji with the Lariat (11:12).
2. Isami Kodaka & Shiori Asahi Vs Yasu Urano & Hagane Shinno ended in a Draw when Asahi and Urano pinned each other (11:58).
3. Thanomsak Toba & Tyson “Ultimate” Maeguchi defeated Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano when Toba pinned Nakano with the Back Blow (11:16).
4. Ryota Nakatsu defeated Takeru Inoue with a Wrist Lock (12:32).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA (c) defeated Lil’ Kraken & Akira Jo when FUMA submitted Kraken with an Armbar (14:39).
*V2 for Hyakusho Ikki.

The new bond between the Super Family is not as strong as the farmer’s bond that Hyakusho Ikki have. Lil’ Kraken missed a Frog Splash, giving FUMA the opening to submit him with an Armbar. He called Kraken & Akira Jo tough opponents after the match but he and Ryuichi Sekine are hard workers from the countryside. They spent the morning preparing for this Iron Fist Tag Team Titles by feeding chickens and cleaning out their coops before travelling to the venue. FUMA doesn’t understand why young people today think working hard is uncool but he and Sekine are going to cherish today’s successful title defence. They now have two wins with 98 to go until they reach their goal of 100 title defences.

Takeru Inoue lost to Ryota Nakatsu in his return match from injury. He shook Nakatsu’s hand afterwards and Nakatsu twisted Inoue’s healed arm as a joke. He said he only did it to show Inoue survived having his injured limb targeted. Inoue said the pain he felt in the match was something he hadn’t felt in a long time but he is happy to wrestle again. Nakatsu is still decided who the next Union MAX Title challenger should be. He said he got a few challenges from other promotions after he won the Chouten ~Itadaki~ but his time is now being taken up by his new role as BASARA’s president.

Match #2 ended in a draw when both teams all got tangled up with each other from a back and forth Double Brainbuster spot. Isami Kodaka, Shiori Asahi, Yasu Urano and Hagane Shinno all ended up rolling their shoulders onto the canvas and they were all pinned for the three count.

Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino opened up the show with an announcement for BASARA’s return to Korakuen Hall on 3rd August. Aijin Tag will team up to face Isami Kodaka & El Desperado! Kamino is aware that Desperado and Nakano already know each other but does Desperado know who he is? He sent out a warning that despite his muscular look, he is still a junior heavyweight so he is going to overwhelm the IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion with his muscles!

BASARA “BASARA 281 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 29~” Results

June 15, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 281 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 29~”, 15/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Fateful Seven: Minoru Fujita Vs Takato Nakano ended in a Draw after a Double Pinfall (7:13).
2. Ultimate Rumble Battle: Takumi Tsukamoto, Ayumu Honda & Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato, Ryota Nakatsu & Isami Kodaka when Honda submitted Kazato with an Armbar (?:??).
3. Jusenkyo Battle: SAGAT defeated Ryuichi Sekine with a Vader Bomb (12:22).
4. Baseball-ken: Banana Senga & FUMA defeated Masato Kamino & Daiki Shimomura when Kamino stripped naked (11:11).
5. Prison Siege: Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with the Kenobi-Style Cradle (6:28).
6. Decisive Battle By A Draw: Takato Nakano, Ryota Nakatsu, Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato, SAGAT, Daiki Shimomura, Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA, Takumi Tsukamoto, Minoru Fujita, Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Ayumu Honda when Nakano pinned Hiroshi with the Takagari (5:38).

Martial Arts Health Army: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA, Takumi Tsukamoto, Minoru Fujita, Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Ayumu Honda

Sports Fighting Army: Takato Nakano, Ryota Nakatsu, Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato, SAGAT, Daiki Shimomura, Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken

The first BASARA show held under new management pitted wrestlers who use martial arts to keep active against wrestlers who prefer to partake in other kinds of sports. This was set up when Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and Takato Nakano had an argument about it on the previous show. Everyone on the martial arts team fought in karate outfits and other similar clothing. Meanwhile the sports team all wore different types of outfits from gym tracksuits to baseball kits to swimming togs.

Every match had different rules applied. The Prison Siege was a Lumberjack Match. The “Baseball-ken” rules were somehow about forcing wrestlers to take off one piece of clothing as a penalty until they were completely naked (the lights went out before Masato Kamino took off his g-string). The Jusenkyo Battle had Ryuichi Sekine and SAGAT behave like different people or animals every time they were knocked out of the ring. The Ultimate Rumble Battle had everyone enter the match one at a time Royal Rumble style before they could win. The Fateful Seven had Minoru Fujita and Takato Nakano racing to get seven pin counts in total but they both reached a count of six and pinned each other for the seventh count, ending the match in a draw. By the end of the show the two sides were tied at two wins a piece so a 16-Man Tag Team match was held to determine a winner.

During the show Takeru Inoue announced his comeback match from injury will happen on 25th June.

Changes To BASARA Management

June 9, 2025

A press conference was held by BASARA today at their Pro Wrestling Clutch bar in Shinjuku to announce a change in management. BASARA’s founder Isami Kodaka has stepped down as president of the company and the role has been handed over to Ryota Nakatsu. Also the Sales Manager role has been given to Takumi Tsukamoto while Takato Nakano has been chosen to be the president of BASARA’s Players Association. Kodaka remains a part of BASARA as a representative partner and still bears responsibility for the company while a person named Mika Oyama is an executive partner.

It was revealed that BASARA is currently in debt with half of the shows they have put together being run at a loss because of low attendance. Their move to become an independent company happened around the time the Covid pandemic began and the lockdowns had a big effect on their attendance numbers dropping. They thought the attendance numbers would eventually recover coming out of the lockdowns but it never happened and they admit it will be difficult to survive unless they make drastic changes. The immediate goal for the new management is to improve attendance at the shows.

Kodaka believes he is unable to make the most of his position as both a pro wrestler and a company president so he is passing the baton over to Nakatsu. He thinks Nakatsu is well respected in the locker room and has earned the trust of everyone in the company to take charge. Kodaka will now get to focus on wrestling while Nakatsu, Tsukamoto and Nakano run the company in his place. He gets to have the final say but all authority now belongs to the new management team. All three promised to do their best to revitalize BASARA.

For the moment Nakatsu wants BASARA to continue running local village shows at Ryuichi Sekine and FUMA’s hometowns. He understands how everyone in the company now has different jobs and responsibilities compared to when the company was launched a decade ago. But he wants everyone get back the feeling they had when they first launched the company and work together as one. He is also aware that BASARA’s precursor Union Pro Wrestling made it to ten years before closing down. He wants BASARA to keep going for many decades more, pretty much until he retires. Kodaka had a similar mindset when he launched BASARA, claiming at the time he would retire whenever the company goes away.

Sasadango Vs Yano Tomorrow, BIG BOYS BURGER, New Title Bouts For Summer Sun Princess

June 8, 2025

DDT/NJPW “ONE-SIDED MATCH ~SUPER SASADANGO MACHINE VS TORU YANO~”, 09/06/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. DDT Pro Wrestling x New Japan Pro Wrestling One-Sided Match: Super Sasadango Machine Vs Toru Yano

Yesterday Super Sasadango Machine gave an impassioned PowerPoint Presentation to explain the history behind this DDT Vs New Japan one match show. He and Toru Yano have both taken past interactions between the two promotions personally and want to settle things their own way. There will be several wrestlers from both companies getting involved one way or another. Antonio Honda and YOH will be the special support ambassadors at ringside. MAO and El Desperado will both be there for special separate autograph sessions. Kazuma Sumi and Daiki Nagai will be working young boy duties. Yukinori Matsui and Kenta Sato have been appointed as the two referees. Also Inoue Mic and Makoto Abe will be the two ring announcers.

5. LEONA Vs Antonio Honda
6. Mizuki & Suzume (w/ Sayuri Namba) Vs X & X (/w X)

I haven’t seen any hints out there as to who the other team in the main event is going to be. They’re also going to have a third person in their corner too to counter Sayuri Namba.

BASARA “BASARA 281 ~OJI NI KITSUNE 29~”, 15/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Martial Arts Health Army Vs Sports Fighting Army: X Vs X

Martial Arts Health Army: Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA, Takumi Tsukamoto, Minoru Fujita, Tsutomu Oosugi, Banana Senga & Ayumu Honda

Sports Fighting Army: Takato Nakano, Ryota Nakatsu, Isami Kodaka, Daichi Kazato, SAGAT, Daiki Shimomura, Masato Kamino & Lil’ Kraken

An argument between Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and Takato Nakano became the inspiration for BASARA’s next team challenge show. Hiroshi thinks martial arts is the best way to stay healthy while Nakano believes other forms of sport is the better way.

DDT “CHARISMANIA II”, 18/06/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. ~20 Years Of Promise~: Yasu Urano Vs Naohiro Katsumi
2. Brahman Brothers Vs Dirty Cops: Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Brahman Ueno Vs Takayuki Ueki, Akito & Mataro
3. LUCHA LIBRE WORLD WIDE: El Pantera Jr. & Sumicaras Vs Ilusion & Sangre Azteca Jr.

A tag team battle of some big boys is the final match added to “CHARISMANIA II”. One team is MJ Paul & Minoru Fujita representing DAMNATION T.A. Their opponents are the two freelancers So Daimonji & Ryoma Tsukamoto.

BASARA “BASARA 282 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~”, 25/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Daiki Shimomura & Takato Nakano Vs Thanomsak Toba & Tyson “Ultimate” Maeguchi
2. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA (c) Vs Lil’ Kraken & Akira Jo

It’s looking like a new group has formed in BASARA, one with a bond as thick as blood. Lil’ Kraken claims that he is part of a Super Family with Akira Jo, Minoru Fujita & SAGAT. He & Jo will be challenging Hyakusho Ikki for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. The champs apparently have Ayumu Honda joining their side but he is not booked for this show.

Tyson Maeguchi is living up to his promise of becoming “Ultimate” whenever he will fight with his gloves on. Why else would he be teaming with Thanomsak Toba again?

DDT “KING OF KINGS ~ARASHI’S JUNE SHOWDOWN~”, 29/06/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Dark Match: Akito & Kazuma Sumi Vs Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida
1. Jun Akiyama, Daichi Sato & Soma Takao Vs Toru Owashi, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada
2. 3 Way Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki & Hideki Okatani Vs MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Shunma Katsumata & To-y

5. Special Tag Match: Minoru Suzuki & Yuki Ueno Vs Shinya Aoki & Yuya Koroku
6. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura (c) Vs Yukio Naya & Yuki Iino
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi

Four months of recovery time was enough time to keep Yuki Iino away from the ring. He was eager to come back and jumped at the opportunity to team with Yukio Naya so they could challenge Astronauts for the KO-D Tag Team Titles.

Poison Sawada JULIE will be at the show to unveil the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship belt. The second generation belt will continue the long, long, long lineage of the title. JULIE is currently the 1,471st champion as of this post.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25”, 21/07/2025
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Moka Miyamoto
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Mizuki (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Later this month Hyper Misao will be back from injury and just in time too because Kyoraku Kyomei now have their next Princess Tag Team Titles defence on the horizon. Last year when Miu Watanabe and Rika Tatsumi had their match for the Princess Of Princess Title, Tatsumi afterwards said Daydream were done teaming together because she believed Watanabe no longer needed her. Watanabe didn’t agree with that and the team was left in limbo for almost a year. Yesterday the two reunited and denied any claims that Daydream had disbanded. They are as united as ever and will prove it by going after the Princess Tag Titles again.

Will it be third time’s the charm for Moka Miyamoto. She has challenged for the International Princess Title twice and lost both times to Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai. She is giving it another go now that Suzume is the champion and she has a recent pinfall over her that qualifies her for a rightful title shot.

BASARA “BASARA 280 ~TAKAGARI 28~” Results

June 7, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 280 ~TAKAGARI 28~”, 07/06/2025
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto & Banana Senga defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Fuminori Abe when Tsukamoto pinned Hiroshi with the Osotogari (7:16).
2. 3 Way Match: Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato and Daiki Shimomura when Oosugi pinned Kazato with the Tsuki no Ishi (7:57).
3. Lil’ Kraken & Akira Jo defeated SAGAT & Isami Kodaka when Kraken pinned SAGAT with the Period. (12:42).
4. Ryota Nakatsu defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the V Slider (15:56).
5. Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ayumu Honda defeated Isami Kodaka, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Sekine submitted Nakano with the Let’s Combine (17:44).

The winners of the main event Hyakusho Ikki made an offer to Ayumu Honda to join their team, thinking his addition will make them even better. Honda didn’t want to but was afraid to turn them down directly so he whispered his decision into Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi’s ear and asked him to tell them. Hiroshi lied to Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA, telling them that Honda loves the idea and wants to join the team! Suddenly Lil’ Kraken walked down to the ring leading a train of Akira Jo, SAGAT and Minoru Fujita lined up behind him. Kraken heard Hyakusho Ikki call themselves the best team but he has his own family, a Super Family if you will, which is even better. The four of them created a strong bond together in their tag match today (a lot of the match was the two teams both struggling to get along) and they would all like to challenge for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles as one unit. They were convinced to whittle their team down to just Kraken & Jo in order to get the title match. Jo then told Kraken they will need to coodernate by wearing the same colours on the day. He suggests red and wasn’t going to argue any further because he has to bring his daughter to see Lilo & Stitch once this show was over. FUMA agreed to have the title match on 25th June.

After beating Munetatsu Nakamura in a BASARA Vs Ganbare☆Pro battle, Ryota Nakatsu continues to be on the lookout for his next Union Pro Title challenger. Nakatsu taunted Nakamura throughout the match and even pulled back his hand when he offered his a handshake after the bout. He praised Nakamura for being an amazing young wrestler and said a guy like him would be a great choice to be his next challenger. So he wants Nakamura to help him find his actual next challenger.

During the show opening introductions an argument broke out between Hiroshi and Takato Nakano. Hiroshi claimed martial arts is the best while Nakano threw his support behind sports instead. The solution to this is to have the 15th June show be dedicated to pitting Team Martial Arts against Team Sports!

BASARA “BASARA 274 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~” Results

March 25, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 274 ~UTAGE AKA – HIEN~”, 25/03/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans

1. Takato Nakano defeated Shota Kofuji with the Takagari (8:57).
2. Isami Kodaka Vs Kosuke Sato ended in a Double Countout (8:57).
3. Keisuke Ishii defeated Daiki Shimomura with the Kneel Kick (9:08).
4. Yuko Miyamoto defeated Masato Kamino with the Moonsault Press (9:32).
5. Ryuichi Sekine, FUMA & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Yasu Urano when Nakatsu pinned SAGAT with a Back Roll Clutch Hold (19:39).

The thought processing between Ryota Nakatsu and Isami Kodaka could not be any more different going into their Union MAX Title match on 12th April. Kodaka is trying to think of new moves to use so he can beat Nakatsu and become champion again. Meanwhile Nakatsu is not going to think of anything and will just rely on his natural ability to retain the belt.

The match between Masato Kamino and Yuko Miyamoto might as well have been a tag match between Aijin Tag and Yankee Two Kenju. There was a ref bump so Miyamoto brought a plastic table into the ring to attack his opponent with. Takato Nakano ran in to stop him and together with Kamino started doing double team moves. Then Miyamoto was rescued by Kodaka so they could do the same. Kodaka wiped out Nakano with a Topé and Miyamoto pinned Kamino with the Moonsault Press although there was a delay with the pinfall from waiting for the replacement referee to show up.

Let’s see if iron sharpening iron is the right idea for Keisuke Ishii and Daiki Shimomura. They fought each other today to prepare themselves for an Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match on 12th April. Both were feeling sore afterwards but Ishii thinks the idea was a success. Maybe he’s just saying that because he won. They also realised they don’t have much time now to start learning double team moves. As for the champions, Ryuichi Sekine & FUMA are expecting the title match to be interesting. They don’t care about double teams as much because you only really need just one move to win.

Kodaka and Kosuke Sato were so focused on trying to out-wrestle each other they ended up getting themselves both counted out of the ring! Their match made its way outside and when Kodaka tried to get back in on time, Sato grabbed him in a Front Neck Lock on the ring apron and the ref finished counting to 20. Kodaka gave Sato his approval and encouraged him to challenge Ikuto Hidaka for the BJW Jr. Heavyweight Title at the Yokohama Budokan on 5th May. Sato promised that if he does win that championship he will come back to BASARA and nominate Kodaka as his challenger.

Later this year sees the return of the Chouten ~Itadaki~ tournament after it took a break in 2024. Kodaka said this year’s tournament will begin with the 1st Round on 30th April, the 2nd Round on 14th May and the Semi Finals plus Final on 23rd July. It will be a 16 man single elimination tournament and every match in Round 1 will have a 10 minute time limit with only 2 Count Pinfalls needed to win.

Minoru Fujita will be returning to wrestle in BASARA on 12th April.

BASARA “BASARA 270 ~SOUEN~” Results

February 10, 2025

BASARA “BASARA 270 ~SOUEN~”, 10/02/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto & Yasu Urano defeated Daichi Kazato & Tsutomu Oosugi when Tsukamoto pinned Kazato after an Moroashigari Otoshi (10:22).
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Lil’ Kraken defeated Gouma Ryu and Banana Senga when Kraken pinned Ryu with La Bufadora (9:50).
3. SAGAT & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Munetatsu Nakamura & Shota Kawakami when Nakatsu pinned Kawakami with the V Slider (10:40).
4. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomura defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi when Sekine submitted Hiroshi with the Let’s Combine (14:06).
5. Union MAX Title: Masato Kamino (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Lariat (18:39).
*V1 for Masato Kamino.

Masato Kamino won the Aijin Tag battle against Takato Nakano to remain the Union MAX Champion. Nakano accepted defeat and will move to the back of the line. In the meantime he wants to see Kamino become even stronger to lead BASARA forward. They can also start teaming up again because it’s been a while since Aijin Tag last had a tag match together. Ryota Nakatsu then climbed into the ring. He praised Kamino for his victory but can also sense just how much Kamino loves himself. It’s enough to overshadow his love for BASARA and the MAX Title. Nakatsu however thinks his own love for BASARA and the MAX Title is clear to see so he wants the next title shot. Kamino accepted the challenge and the match will happen on 2nd March.

Today was the final match of Sento Minzoku as a unit. It was a 6-Man Tag match with the three active members all teaming together while Minoru Fujita was in their corner at ringside. After they beat Asian Kung Fu Revolution, all four members posed for the fans, laid their towels down on the canvas and all removed their monkey tails to place on top of the towels. Isami Kodaka then officially declared Sento Minzoku has disbanded. Backstage he said his desire to promote BASARA has not changed and he will continue to find ways to make it more exciting. Ryuichi Sekine said because he had reliable partners looking over him he was able to do whatever he wanted during his time in the unit. He will use that experience to step up in the future. Daiki Shimomura wonders if he would have been able to grow as he did if he never joined the unit and worn the tail. He thanked the others for teaching him so much. Fujita felt like he was able to become a part of BASARA thanks to Sento Minzoku. The unit disbanding does not mean he will be leaving BASARA. He’ll be back from his break eventually.
