6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: Mizuki defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Cutie Special (16:23).

Mizuki win the Tokyo Princess Cup for the second year in a row! Due to shows being cancelled due to the Coronavirus, the semi-finals were pushed back to the same day as the final. Mizuki met Shoko Nakajima in the final. Nakajima immediately went for a Topé Suicida but Mizuki got out of the way and Yuka Sakazaki took the dive at ringside instead. Mizuki then hit a Diving Foot Stomp and a Diving Body Press to the outside. Mizuki later stopped the Diving Senton from happening so she could do the Avalanche Cutie Special. Nakajima almost won with the Northern Lights Suplex but Mizuki kicked out and took back control with a Codebreaker. She weakened her opponent with more Double Stomps until finally winning with the Cutie Special.

Mizuki hugged Sakazaki after receiving the trophy. She thanked everyone for supporting her and excitedly told Sakazaki she won over and over. She then said she wants to have a match against Sakazaki because she is still ahead of her as the Princess Of Princess Champion. Sakazaki said that would be a good match and a miracle title match needs to take place in a miracle venue. Sakazaki Vs Mizuki for the Princess Title will happen main event “WRESTLE PRINCESS” at Tokyo Dome City Hall on 7th November! They hugged again and closed out the show together.

Nakajima ended Miyu Yamashita’s miracle run in the Princess Cup. The focus was on the Northern Lights Suplex. Yamashita kicked out of it once and resisted being given the move a second time but Nakajima turned it into a Small Package to get the three count. Yamashita said she is disappointed she lost to Nakajima and go eliminated from the tournament. She now knows her own weaknesses and will have do something about it. She wonders if she is still too naive over her obsession to win and has to figure out how to shine and become stronger.

Mizuki had to fight past Maki Itoh in a meeting of the original Itoh Respect Army. Itoh got a nearfall with a Swinging DDT then went for the Itoh Special. Mizuki fought out of it and caught Itoh in the Cutie Special for the victory. Itoh declined to shake hands after the match. She instead gave Mizuki the middle finger. This one was out of respect. At least I think it was supposed to be. Backstage Itoh said today’s defeat was the biggest shame of the year. The only solution is to get stronger. In the beginning she just tried to fight her best but Itoh has outgrown that mindset. It’s too tacky for her. That is why Itoh is going to fight the way she wants to fight from now on.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 15/08/2020
Tokyo Kanda Myojin Hall

2. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Hikari Noa & Pom Harajuku when Kiryu pinned Harajuku with the Spinebuster (6:56).

7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Quarter Final: Miyu Yamashita defeated Hyper Misao with the Crash Rabbit Heat (12:38).

An unnamed member of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster who was not at today’s show tested positive in a PCR exam for COVID-19. She is currently being treated and has no worrying symptoms to report at this time. For the entire roster’s safety, tomorrow’s show in Kanda Myojin Hall and the Itabashi Green Hall show on the 22nd have been cancelled. The person had not been in close contact with DDT wrestlers so today’s DDT show went ahead as scheduled as will tomorrow’s BOYZ show. However, Daisuke Kiso will not work those events because he was on the TJPW show.

Hyper Misao was so thankful for the fan support she got from beating Yuka Sakazaki last week. To prove how important the Tokyo Princess Cup is for her, she gathered together her most important weapons and emptied them in the ring to show Miyu Yamashita they will have a fair fight. Yamashita saw through her plan and blocked the attempted Cold Spray attack. However, Misao had a second can and froze her opponent for a nearfall. Misao used the spray again outside the ring and rolled Yamashita up in the ring apron. Yamashita avoided the countout and tackled Misao while still wrapped up in the apron. Misao used an exposed turnbuckle for another advantage but Yamashita kicked her away. She blocked the Vanitas, hit the Attitude Adjustment and won with the Crash Rabbit Heat. Could this finally be Yamashita’s year to win the tournament?

Meeting Yamashita in the semi-final will be Shoko Nakajima. Her win over Natsumi Maki means Maki will have to wait even longer for her next rematch with Yamashita. Nakajima did the Northern Lights Suplex but couldn’t hold on the bridge for the pin. She corrected that by doing a Double Arm DDT and then the Diving Senton for the victory.

Over on the other side of the bracket, Maki Itoh reached her career best in the tournament, advancing to the semi final over Miu Watanabe. Itoh blocked the Laserbeam strike with a Headbutt then hit the Flying Big Head. Rather than go for the pin, Itoh hit a second Flying Big Head to ensure Watanabe would not kick out.

Waiting for Itoh in the semi final is last year’s winner Mizuki. That means the former Itoh Respect Army explodes! Mizuki used an Avalanche Cutie Special on Yuki Aino but was too damaged to pin her straight away. Aino recovered and hit the Venus DDT. She went for the UBV but Mizuki countered it with a Casadora and a Double Stomp. She hit the standard Cutie Special to put Aino away.

The Tokyo Princess Cup semi final matches are Mizuki Vs Maki Itoh and Shoko Nakajima Vs Miyu Yamashita. They were supposed to take place tomorrow but they will have to be rescheduled over the sudden cancellation. Should everything be okay after testing then the next show on the calendar is the final itself on 29th August. They can easily do the semi finals and final on the same show if they have to.

Kotaro Yoshino was on that show and tested positive for COVID-19 afterwards. Asahi & Yamato both agreed to cancel their appearances at the BOYZ show because of this. Jun Masaoka has been brought in to take Asahi’s place in the main event. Yamato’s match has been changed from a tag bout to a 3 Way.

Here’s something I learned about Atsushi Onita. He has a side business making coffee that involves importing coffee beans from Laos. The farm where he gets these beans from uses a robot called Mecha Pandita to cultivate the beans. When Onita found out about this robot he came up with an idea. He will bring this machine to Japan and modify it into a pro wrestling robot! Mecha Pandita is currently doing its job in the mountains of Kanzaki City and will be ready for Shunma Katsumata to fight soon.

DDT “DDT LIVE! ~SAYONARA TOSHIMAEN~ ATSUSHI ONITA IMMEDIATELY RETIRE IF YOU LOSE SP CURRENT BLAST ON THE STREET”, 27/08/2020
Tokyo Toshimaen

1. Street Current Blast Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Sanshiro Takagi & Chris Brookes Vs Shinya Aoki, Caol Uno & Konosuke Takeshita

Over the years, the Toshimaen theme park in Nerima, Tokyo was a venue DDT visited several times for Street Wrestling matches. Sadly, Toshimaen will close down at the end of this month after 94 years in business. When Sanshiro Takagi heard the news he asked to wrestle there one last time. They will literally send the place out with a bang because DDT is putting together a Current Blast Death Match!

Shinya Aoki is in the match because he used to live in Nerima and would visit Toshimaen many times. He was recently reminded of the place when his ex-wife sent him an angry message. He wants to do Team Aoki Vs Team Onita and if Onita loses, he has to retire for the 8th time in his career. Onita admitted he will continue wrestling after his 8th, 9th and 10th retirements so they need to include something else to fight over. Aoki suggested Takagi and CyberFight put 50 million yen on the line. Takagi doesn’t know where the money will come from but he agreed to it so the match can go ahead. Takagi & Onita will have Chris Brookes on their team. Aoki is bringing in Konosuke Takeshita and MMA fighter Caol Uno! Aoki said that Uno is frightened of wrestling in a Current Blast Death Match but he still has the skills necessary to win.

The press conference for the match was held out in Toshimaen but quickly fell apart when a torrential rainstorm soaked everybody.

Over on the other side of the bracket, Natsumi Maki and Shoko Nakajima promises to be frantic. Finally Miyu Yamashita’s meets the biggest reminder of her Princess Cup curse. Hyper Misao’s upset over Yamashita back in 2016 is what cemented this jinx in the first place. But did Misao use up all her luck knocking out Yuka Sakazaki?

The King Of DDT is down to Tetsuya Endo, Kazusada Higuchi, Akito and T-Hawk. The winner headlines “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” at Ota Ward Gymnasium in November. Endo has different connections with the rest of the final four. He feuded with Higuchi throughout the DDT TV SHOW series earlier this year. He was beaten in the 1st Round by Akito but was rescued from elimination by winning the Dramatic Chance Battle Royal. And his partnership with T-Hawk is the origin of the DAMNHEARTS business alliance. Akito wants revenge on T-Hawk after he lost to him at “JUDGEMENT 2019” in Sumo Hall last February.

4. Street Fight 6-Man Tag Match: Atsushi Onita, Yuko Miyamoto & Rocky Kawamura Vs Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Kaz Hayashi

Atsushi Onita got the toughest competition to fight his crew in the main event. Sugiura-gun from NOAH are entering the STREET FIGHT CLUB! Onita and Takashi Sugiura had a little death match feud half a decade ago that never really went anywhere. Might as well rekindle it because 2020 is weird enough to make it happen. There is also the two unusual joshi offshoots Gake no Fuchi Joshi and Pocchari Joshi getting paired against each other.

1. Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino & Haruna Neko defeated Maki Itoh, Raku & Himawari Unagi when Aino pinned Unagi with the Venus DDT (9:40).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Mirai Maiumi and Sena Shiori when Mizuki pinned Shiori with the Diving Foot Stomp (8:04).
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Natsumi Maki defeated Pom Harajuku with the Backlash (4:41).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Shoko Nakajima defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Northern Lights Suplex (10:37).
5. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Suzume defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa & Moka Miyamoto when Tatsumi pinned Miyamoto with the Twist Of Fate (9:11).
6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Miyu Yamashita defeated Hikari Noa with the Skull Kick (10:22).
7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Hyper Misao defeated Yuka Sakazaki with La Magistral Cradle (15:42).

The Princess Of Princess Champion is eliminated! Yuka Sakazaki is out. And guess who got her out of the tournament? Hyper Misao of course! Before their match began, Misao talked about missing last year’s Tokyo Princess Cup and she was thinking about the last two years during Sakazaki’s entrance. She had a lot of tricks she wanted to use but never got around to them so she promised to fight fair and square. She emptied a bunch of stuff for Daisuke Kiso to clear out of the ring then she immediately blinded Sakazaki with cold spray behind the ref’s back. Misao continued the dirty tricks by taping Sakazaki’s feet to the post so she hung updside down outside the ring. When Sakazaki got freed she tried to suffocate Misao by covering her mouth and nose. She then pulled off a turnbuckle pad and hit Misao with it. Misao’s attempted to do the Vanitas but her leg was too damaged to complete the move. But she blocked the Magical Girl Splash and trapped Sakazaki in La Magistral Cradle for the three count!

Hikari Noa is aware of Miyu Yamashita’s poor record in the Princess Cup so she scoped out every opening to get a flash pin. She even used the Modified European Clutch (the Bridging Figure 4 looking thing) that’s becoming popular for a nearfall. She also used a Thrust Kick that Natsumi Maki taught her. While Yamashita was still on her back, she used her legs to push Noa off her. When she got up she caught Noa off guard and hit the Skull Kick to win. After wrestling both Raku and Noa back to back, Yamashita believes The Up Up Girls are getting stronger. Now she has to face Misao in the next round and that brings back some angry memories for Yamashita.

Somebody who usually has a good record in the Princess Cup is Shoko Nakajima. The last two years were off because she got eliminated in the 2nd Round both times. This year is an improvement thanks to her advancing over Mahiro Kiryu. Nakajima kicked out of the Spinebuster and won with the Northern Lights Suplex. Kiryu is still pleased with her first Princess Cup performance. When asked if she thinks she has grown during it, Kiryu answered she’s grown about 5mm.

You can never trust Pom Harajuku under any circumstances. Natsumi Maki found that out the hard way when they went for a handshake. Harajuku snuck in a Sneaker Kick and pelted Maki with more Sneaker Kicks in the early going. Her attacks grew bigger building up to a Missile Dropkick. Natsumi took the brunt of the offence long enough to pin her opponent with the Backlash. She then hit Harajuku in the knee for payback after the match.

The Quarter Final matches are now set. Natsumi Maki Vs Shoko Nakajima and Miyu Yamashita Vs Hyper Misao joins Mizuki Vs Yuki Aino and Miu Watanabe Vs Maki Itoh on 15th August.

1. Miyu Yamashita, Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Natsumi Maki, Hikari Noa & Sena Shiori when Harajuku pinned Shiori with the Pom Do Justice (9:31).
2. 3 Way Match: Shoko Nakajima defeated Nodoka Tenma and Haruna Neko when Nakajima pinned Neko with the Northern Lights Suplex (5:52).
3. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Mizuki defeated Suzume with the Cutie Special (7:46).
4. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Maki Itoh defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the Itoh Deluxe (7:32).
5. Yuka Sakazaki, Mina Shirakawa & Moka Miyamoto defeated Hyper Misao, Raku & Himawari Unagi when Sakazaki pinned Unagi with the Magical Merry-Go-Round (9:27).
6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Miu Watanabe defeated Mirai Maiumi with the Tear Drop (9:20).
7. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 2: Yuki Aino defeated Rika Tatsumi with the UBV (13:36).

Round 2 is bigger than Round 1 so half the field wrestled their matches today with the other half getting ready for tomorrow. Yuki Aino leads the charge into the Quarter Finals, beating Rika Tatsumi in the main event. Her new UBV finisher is being polished, looking more like a big drop to the canvas rather than just a Double Arm Suplex. Aino has become so absorbed in her matches recently that she becomes very happy over winning the matches that are important to her. This is one because Aino has known Tatsumi ever since Aino was a ring announcer.

At least one of the Princess Tag Team Champions is still in the tournament. Miu Watanabe beat Mirai Maiumi but still felt the love and feelings for pro wrestling from her opponent. Maiumi blocked the Laserbeam and put Watanabe in a Chickenwing Armlock until the rope was grabbed. Watanabe got to hit the Laserbeam and won with the Tear Drop.

Friends has to become enemies when Maki Itoh and Yuki Kamifuku faced off. Itoh’s Headbutt was the difference maker and it led to the Itoh Deluxe finish. Itoh is happy to advance past the 2nd Round for the first time. From here on she’s in a world she’s never been in before. She says she will calm down and aim for victory.

Last year’s Tokyo Princess Cup winner Mizuki was prepared for what Suzume threw at her. Suzume spent most of the match fighting from beneath looking for chances to flash pin Mizuki. Her last chance was countering the Cutie Special into a Front Sleeper. Unfortunately for her, Mizuki managed to hit her finisher for the three count. Mizuki gives Suzume credit for putting her in several dangerous situations causing her to never leave her guard open.

After today’s show there are two Quarter Finals currently filled. Mizuki Vs Yuki Aino and Miu Watanabe Vs Maki Itoh will happen on 15th August. The other two Quarter Finals will be determined on tomorrow’s show.
