MAO used the GLEAT/DDT show to send a message to Kaz Hayashi. He wants to defend the DDT Universal Title against Hayashi’s masked alter ego from his Michinoku Pro days. That’s right he wants to wrestle Shiryu! MAO thinks it will be fitting for Hayashi to take up the gimmick again and fight for a championship with “Universal” in the name for old time’s sake.

BASARA “BASARA 251 ~UTAGE~”, 21/06/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino Vs Lil’ Kraken & Leo Isaka
2. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi (c) Vs Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura

Perhaps the next challengers for the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles will be decided when Aijin Tag takes on the tag team from Tochigi.

DDT “WHAT ARE YOU DOING 2024”, 30/06/2024
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Sanshiro Takagi Indefinite Rest Road ~ Special Tag Match: Sanshiro Takagi & Miyu Yamashita Vs Danshoku Dieno & Maki Itoh
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match ~ BURNING Vs TEAM NOAH!: Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino & Yuya Koroku Vs Go Shiozaki, Atsushi Kotoge & Hi69
3. Road To PETER PAN 2024! Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata Vs MAO & To-y

The build up to “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2024” begins with The 37KAMIINA clashing against each other in tag matches as previews for the big KO-D Openweight Title match. BURNING and TEAM NOAH continue their growing feud too.

It is thanks to Takagi that both Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh entered the world of pro wrestling. They get to play a part in his final bunch of matches for the time being. Danshoku Dieno isn’t being left out of this either.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. FIFTEEN: SEHNSUCHT IST SO GRAUSAM”, 02/07/2024
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa

1. Special Single Match: Antonio Honda Vs Mad Dr. Ueki
2. Special Single Match: Mecha Mummy Vs Mr. Bueno
3. Special Single Match: MAO Vs Sayaka Unagi
4. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi Vs Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura

More Astronauts matches to pay attention to in this side of the puro bubble. They are entering the cramped little space that is ARENA Shimokitazawa for what will certainly be a crazy match against CDK.

Sayaka Unagi also joins in the Baka Gaijin + Friends circle for the first time. Perhaps the hardest working self promoter in the business today gets to fight MAO too which is a pretty high profile matchup nowadays.

The newest regular to Baka Gaijin shows is the masked man Mr. Bueno. He impressed with a victory against Antonio Honda on the last show but how will he handle the mayhem that usually follows after Mecha Mummy? Speaking of Honda he takes on Mummy’s current handler Mad Dr. Ueki.

DDT “WRESTLE PETER PAN 2024”, 21/07/2024
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Special Single Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Masato Tanaka
2. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino (c) Vs Go Shiozaki & Atsushi Kotoge
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs MAO

I’m glad to see we’re actually getting something out of DDT’s appearances on the NOAH Limit Break shows. So far on the shows both Tetsuya Endo & Yuki Iino have been wanting to fight and beat Go Shiozaki to no avail. Now Shiozaki is coming back over to DDT to help Atsushi Kotoge try and win the KO-D Tag Team Titles. Shiozaki has also been a member in past iterations of BURNING so what does he think of the current day version?

EVE/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “EVE X TJPW”, 24/08/2024
London, England

The four Tokyo Joshi Pro talents travelling over to England for the joint show with EVE are Miyu Yamashita, Raku, Mahiro Kiryu and HIMAWARI. Also taking part on the show is Aja Kong! Since the show is happening in between the final rounds of the Tokyo Princess Cup that means the four names mentioned above will not be taking part in the tournament this year. It’s also been confirmed that Maki Itoh will not be in the tournament either because she will be on her next tour of America during August.

BASARA “BASARA 249 ~UTAGE~” Results

May 28, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 249 ~UTAGE~”, 28/05/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Ryuichi Sekine, Fuminori Abe & Gaia Hox defeated FUMA, KUBITO & Yasu Urano when Hox pinned FUMA with the Butterfly Effect (13:11).
2. SAGAT defeated Gouma Ryu with the Superman Splash (8:41).
3. Lil’ Kraken, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Isami Kodaka, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Kraken pinned Nakano with the High Angle Jumping Knee Butt (9:43).
4. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi (c) defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Nakatsu pinned Judomaster with the V Slider (16:47).
*V4 for Harimao.
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Daichi Kazato with a Body Press after Kazato missed the Firebird Splash (20:33).
*V4 for Minoru Fujita.

So close but yet so far. Daichi Kazato kicked out of the SAYONARA Tombstone twice and got Minoru Fujita in position for a big high flying move to finish him off. Kazato went for the Firebird Special but Fujita rolled out of the way and Kazato crashed onto the mat. The miss cost him everything because Fujita pinned him afterwards to remain as the Union MAX Champion. After the match Fujita told Kazato he knows nothing about him but was happy to share a little bit of his heart with him today. Kazato thanked the fans for supporting him and apologised to them for losing. When he left the ring, Fujita waited to see if anyone would come out to challenge him. Nobody did so he closed out the show by himself. Backstage Fujita told reporters that good matches happen all the time but they will be forgotten about after a month or even a week. What he sets out to do is have a match that will leave a deep mark in everyone’s hearts like a scar. That is what makes a great match to him.

Is there any team out there that can beat Harimao? That is the question now being asked by the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions after their latest successful title defence. Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster had a bumpy road leading into the title match but went into the match as a well oiled team. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough even with Judomaster taking off his gi to take the match up a level against Ryota Nakatsu while Tsukamoto took out Kazasada Higuchi with a Plancha. Harimao won in the end and praised the challengers for giving them a good fight.

Today was Takato Nakano’s first match back from his minor shoulder injury. He lost his tag match though. Lil’ Kraken got the pin on him with the Juping Knee Butt. Nakano wanted to keep fighting Kraken after the match but Masato Kamino stepped in to stop him.

The lawyer Gouma Ryu kept accusing SAGAT of copyright infringement during their match. Everytime SAGAT did something that allegedly copied something else, Ryu would threaten him with a 10,000 yen fine or jail time if he couldn’t afford it. SAGAT wanted to do a Running Cannonball into the corner? Ryu would fine him because he is copying Shigehiro Irie. He wanted to do a Superman Splash? That was infringing American copyrights. It led to SAGAT constantly searching for money outside the ring so he could pay the fines. He then turned the tables after Ryu gave him the Running Neckbreaker and shouted his catchphrase because Ryu is just copying Ryuma Go! From that point on SAGAT ignored the warnings and beat Ryu with the Superman Splash.

More injuries to talk about. Takato Nakano dislocated his left shoulder during training this week so he is now out of action. He also tweeted about dealing with knee pain from time to time. He is hoping to recover from everything so and do his best to come back to the ring in perfect condition. Yasu Urano is moved into his spot in the opener of tomorrow’s BASARA show. Jet Bar (an alter ego of Thanomsak Toba) will be taking Urano’s place in the trios bout later in the show.

GANBARE☆PRO “EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE 2024”, 18/05/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Shota Kawakami Debut Match: Ken Ohka Vs Shota Kawakami
2. Ken Ohka, Banny Oikawa & Gabai Ji-chan vs Hartley Jackson, Choun-Shiryu & Yuna Manase

6. Kitsune World Title: Sayaka Unagi (c) Vs YuuRI
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Keisuke Ishii (c) Vs Kouki Iwasaki

It wasn’t meant to be this way but Ken Ohka is going to wrestle three times on this show! Munetatsu Nakamura pulled out because he is sick and HARUKAZE can’t show up because of a scheduling conflict. Apparently Ohka told management he is willing to work twice and step in to fight either Shigehiro Irie or Mizuki Watase. He didn’t expect to be given a tag match against both of them. He also didn’t expect to be put in a third match either! That right there is a lesson in being careful if you offer to do extra work at your job.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAMS! VOL. 11 ~ YUKINORI MATSUI REFEREE 30TH ANNIVERSARY BOX OFFICE ~ MAKING THE SQUARE WORLD INTERESTING”, 19/05/2024

12. Triple Main Event – From All Over The World, Arriving In Osaka. Special Singles Match ~THE ALPHA Vs King Of Pro Wrestling~: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Minoru Suzuki

A disagreement broke out between Bushimasa and Thanomsak Toba over what rules they will use for their match. Toba wanted to use MMA rules but Bushimasa wants the match to be a Tire Boxing fight! They eventually agreed to do one round each of both. Round 1 will be an MMA fight with a 3 minute time limit, submissions allowed and a 10 count for Knockout. Round 2 is Tire Boxing where both fighters keep a foot in the middle of a tire and box each other. Victory is achieved by knocking the opponent out of the tire 3 times or knocking them out with a 5 Count. If there is no winner after both rounds then the fight will be ruled a draw.

Here are the names of each of the tag teams entering the Rumble match. Keisuke Ishii & Akito are “Wakamori Generation!“, Masahiro Takanashi & Makoto Oishi are “Team Sneaky People“, Soma Takao & Shota are ROMANCE DAWN of course, KANON & MJ Paul are “DAMNATION T.A Special Attack Team“, Yuki Iino & Yuki Ishida are “Dosukoi BURNING ~100% Yuki~” and Toru Owashi & Black Menso-re are “El Dorado Brother Combination?“.

Rukiya’s injury removes him from the opening match. The tag bout is now a 3 Way.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAM TAKASHIMAYA VOL. 2”, 01/06/2024

BASARA “BASARA 243 ~TAKAGARI 23~” Results

March 9, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 243 ~TAKAGARI 23~”, 09/03/2024
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. SAGAT defeated Munetatsu Nakamura with the Goregrind (8:27).
2. KUBITO & Yasu Urano defeated Gouma Ryu & Banana Senga when KUBITO submitted Ryu with a Crossface Lock (7:24).
3. Tsutomu Oosugi defeated Daichi Kazato with the Tsuki no Ishi (12:42).
4. Masato Kamino & Chicharito Shoki defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Kamino pinned Judomaster with the Lariat (14:54).
5. Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA, Ryota Nakatsu & Fuminori Abe when Kodaka pinned Nakatsu with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (18:52).

2024 could be the year Sento Minzoku is back on top of the BASARA mountain. Minoru Fujita is currently the Union MAX Champion and the result of today’s main event could lead to the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles coming back to him too. Isami Kodaka pinned Ryota Nakatsu to win the match and told Fujita he wants the two of them to challenge Harimao for the titles. Nakatsu complained that Fujita shouldn’t have to be Kodaka’s partner and Ryuichi Sekine should do it instead. However he eventually agreed to put the belts on the line against Fujita & Kodaka. Kazusada Higuchi’s next BASARA appearance is on 19th March but Fujita is already defending the Union MAX Title on 19th March on that show. He refuses to wrestle twice, especially if it is in two championship matches back to back. They all think Higuchi will be available to wrestle in BASARA again on 20th April so they will do the title match there unless they got Higuchi’s schedule wrong.

Sekine announced he will be back to wrestling on a regular schedule with BASARA starting from next month. He made it a goal to work his way into becoming a champion again.

Yesterday BASARA reported that Takato Nakano had a fever but tested negative for covid. They decided to pull him from the show as a precaution and brought in Chicharito Shoki to replace him. If that wasn’t enough, it was announced that the love sickness Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi is suffering from has gotten worse so he couldn’t wrestle today either. The masked Judomaster was suspiciously in the venue again to take his place for the second show in a row. He seemed to have a better understanding of pro wrestling this time but still lost to Masato Kamino.

Today is the first time Gouma Ryu wrestled in Takashimadaira Kumin Center for a BASARA show. He thought he was taking part in another Pro Wrestling Trial but Banana Senga forgot to bring his outfit. They held a court session arguing whether or not injuring your opponent in a pro wrestling match should be a crime. They told KUBITO and Yasu Urano to wrestle each other in order to provide evidence. None of their actions injured either of them so the referee/judge declared them Not Guilty. Ryu did not accept the result and convinced Senga to fight the other two. KUBITO & Urano quickly beat them.

BASARA “BASARA 242 ~UTAGE~” Results

February 20, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 242 ~UTAGE~”, 20/02/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. FUMA, KUBITO & Yasu Urano defeated SAGAT, Masato Kamino & Gouma Ryu when FUMA pinned Ryu with a Middle Kick (0:14).

3. Kengo Mashimo defeated Lil’ Kraken by Countout (10:27).

4a. Rematch: Isami Kodaka & Ryota Nakatsu defeated Takumi Tsukamoto & Judomaster when Kodaka pinned Judomaster with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (8:53).
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita (c) defeated Takato Nakano with the Modified Tombstone Piledriver (18:04).
*V1 for Minoru Fujita.

Takato Nakano had his own cheering section led by Kaori Yoneyama, Cherry, Matsuzawa-san and other people related to the YMZ wrestling promotion during the main event. He was able to kick out of the Samson Clutch but Minoru Fujita eventually pinned him with the Modified Tombstone. After the match Masato Kamino challenged Fujita to a title match. Fujita asked if Kamino can drum up the same level of support as Takano did? Are Yoneyama, Cherry or Matsuzawa-san going to come back and cheer him on too? Fujita has never gotten to lead BASARA until now so he wants to fill up Shin-Kiba 1st RING with people no matter if they support him or his challengers. He agreed to the match for next month.

There was a sudden announcement that Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi missed the show due to a bout of love sickness. His replacement was a masked fighter going by the name Judomaster. He was quickly pinned by Ryota Nakatsu and admitted to Takumi Tsukamoto afterward he does not understand the rules of pro wrestling. The two teams agreed to restart the match and this time Judomaster got the hang of things. He lost again though, this time to Isami Kodaka.

The opening match also had to restart a couple of times because Gouma Ryu kept getting pinned quickly. He kept pleading on the microphone to do rematches and got the fans to side with him.

BASARA “BASARA 240 ~UTAGE~” Results

January 23, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 240 ~UTAGE~”, 23/01/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. KUBITO & Yasu Urano defeated Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when KUBITO pinned Senga with the Ishikusu Hana (10:44).
2. SAGAT defeated Fuminori Abe with the Goregrind (11:04).
3. FUMA & Daichi Kazato defeated Ryota Nakatsu & Gouma Ryu when Kazato pinned Ryu with the O.K.K (11:08).
4. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi with the Brainbuster Slam (12:58).
5. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita when Nakano pinned Kodaka with the Falconry (15:57).

Takato Nakano said if he is able to win the Union MAX Title from Minoru Fujita on 20th February then it will make up for Aijin Tag having to lose the IRON FIST Tag Team Titles last summer. He is part of a new generation ready to change BASARA and when he is champion he would like to win the Tag Titles from Harimao! Fujita admits 2024 is going to be an even bigger challenge for him to survive compared to last year. He would like his fanbase no matter how small they are to come to the show and bring their grandparents with them to cheer Fujita on.

After KUBITO & Yasu Urano won in the opening match they asked the fans what should they do next? The fans chanted for them to challenge for the IRON FIST Tag Titles. KUBITO liked the idea and agreed to do it.

BASARA “BASARA 239 ~UTAGE~” Results

January 7, 2024

BASARA “BASARA 239 ~UTAGE~”, 07/01/2024
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino defeated KUBITO & Yasu Urano when Nakano pinned KUBITO with the Mushagaeshi (11:36).
2. Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga defeated Ryuichi Sekine & Ryota Nakatsu when Oosugi pinned Sekine after the Pictures At An Exhibition ~Dwarf~ with Senga (10:16).
3. Isami Kodaka defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi by Knockout with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (10:14).
4. Takumi Tsukamoto, SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Daichi Kazato, Fuminori Abe & Takuya Nomura when Kraken pinned Kazato with a Jumping Knee Butt (10:27).
5. Union MAX Title: Minoru Fujita defeated FUMA (c) with the Modified Samson Clutch (20:57).
*FUMA fails in V3. Minoru Fujita becomes the 21st Union MAX Champion!

The new year for BASARA begins with Minoru Fujita as the brand new Union MAX Champion! The man with nothing left in his life but pro wrestling defeated FUMA and promised to lead BASARA into 2024. Takato Nakano came out and congratulated Fujita but told him he thinks BASARA cannot progress until they have a more youthful energy to liven things up. Fujita accepted his challenge for the MAX Title. He’s been wrestling for 20 years and will continue to wrestle for 30 or even 40 more! Fujita thinks 2023 was a tough year for both BASARA and Sento Minzoku so 2024 is going to be the year of their counterattack.

It was previously announced in December but Ryuichi Sekine is trying to crowdfund his own wrestling show in Okayama on 14th April. It is a project that his wife Nodoka Tenma is also involved with so the show may end up featuring wrestlers from both BASARA and Tokyo Joshi Pro.

BASARA “BASARA 238 ~UTAGE~” Results

December 19, 2023

BASARA “BASARA 238 ~UTAGE~”, 19/12/2023
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto & SAGAT defeated Yasu Urano & Masahiro Takanashi when SAGAT pinned Urano with the Goregrind (12:44).
2. 3 Way Match: A.YAZAWA defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi and Gouma Ryu when YAZAWA pinned Hiroshi with a Backslide Pin (9:36).
3. FUMA, KUBITO & Daichi Kazato defeated Lil’ Kraken, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when FUMA pinned Kraken with the Heavy Metal Anthem (10:56).
4. Isami Kodaka & Minoru Fujita defeated Shuichiro Katsumura & Munetatsu Nakamura when Fujita pinned Nakamura with the Modified Samson Clutch (15:19).
5. Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi defeated Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Nakatsu pinned Nakano with the V Slider (17:27).

The last BASARA show of the year ended with Harimao holding a toast inside the ring. The main event was non-title but Ryota Nakatsu & Kazusada Higuchi are open to giving Aijin Tag a shot at the IRON FIST Tag Team Titles as long as Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino do their best. Harimao are just glad they get to end 2023 in BASARA on a happy note.

Isami Kodaka held the Spirit Of Ganbare Title belt above Shuichiro Katsumura to taunt him after their tag match. Minoru Fujita said the win was an overwhelming victory against Ganbare☆Pro and he looks forward to seeing Kodaka defend the title over there on 27th December. Fujita then decided to challenge FUMA for the Union MAX Title! He thinks everything fell apart for Sento Minzoku this year so in 2024 he will revitalize the group by beating FUMA for the championship. However FUMA said he does not have a good enough recent track record to deserve a shot. Fujita talked about FUMA recently getting married and having a fulfilling personal life while he has nothing but just pro wrestling to rely on. FUMA understood what he meant and accepted the challenge for 7th January.

The 3 Way Match was supposed to be A.YAZAWA’s specialty, the Rock ‘N’ Roll Death Match. It is where everyone has to dance whenever rock music plays over the speakers. However the sound system malfunctioned during the match and started playing drinking songs instead, causing the wrestlers to drink alcohol instead of dance.
