Tokyo Joshi Pro’s debut weekend in Canada got off to a hot start with a sold out crowd attending the show that Sayuri Namba helped put together. In the main event, J-Rod teamed up with her previous rival Miu Watanabe as to form a powerhouse tag team for Yuki Arai & Wakana Uehara to try and overcome. They came close by trapping their opponents in their signature submissions at the same time but it didn’t last. Watanabe intercepted Arai with a Power Slam, leaving Uehara vulnerable to get pinned by J-Rod’s Ultimate Spear. After the match J-Rod called herself and Watanabe the Muscle Sisters. Backstage Arai said she will do her best for tomorrow’s match and also for the Princess Of Princess Title bout in Las Vegas next week.

It was a rough day in the ring for HIMAWARI. She wrestled twice today, also appearing on the Mystery Wrestling show that was held in the same venue. On both shows she lost her matches to Nicole Matthews. Here, Matthews called the tag a rehearsal for tomorrow’s rubber match against Miyu Yamashita where they are currently 1-1 against each other. Liiza Hall is also betting on having the momentum to win her match tomorrow too.

*V3 for Shuji Ishikawa.

The second ever Gaisen Sakura show put together by Ryuichi Sekine and his wife Nodoka Tenma brought a day of wrestling to their home of Shinjo Village in Okayama. Matches were provided by both BASARA and Tokyo Joshi Pro with Sekine taking part in a main event Union MAX Title challenge against Shuji Ishikawa. Although he wasn’t able to win the belt in front of his wife and child, Sekine promised everyone he will continue to live in the village determined to never give up.

Tenma’s sister Yuki Aino teamed up with the rest of the Tojo Tokosatsu Club to fight against Aja Kong again. She also had to dodge out of the way from a top rope smashing hammer attack from Mizuki. Mizuki had some more misfortune after that when Kong accidentally hit her over the head with the steel can that was aimed for someone else. The Club were given 10kg of A5 Grade wagyu beef as their reward for winning the match. They knew it was raining in the area yesterday and believe it went away today because Kong is really a super ultra sunshine girl.

6d. Final Single Match – Special Rules: Yuki Arai defeated Pom Harajuku with the Scorpion Death Lock (4:03).

Springtime means it’s time to hold a sports day outdoors in the sunshine. There were a Red Team and White Team put together in the main event for sports day themed wrestling matches. A point was given to the winners of every game and when the total scores were tallied up, the winning side would be given an advantage for the final match of the day. In the first game Mizuki and Hyper Misao wore large baskets over their back and it was up to Rika Tatsumi and Raku to throw balls into their team’s basket within a 5 minute time limit. They also has to wrestle during this so the baskets were constantly spilling over until the big rush to fill them up in the final seconds. Misao & Raku narrowly won by having one more ball than Mizuki & Tatsumi.

The second game was a wrestling match done Three-Legged Race style. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino had their legs tied together as did Miyu Yamashita & Mahiro Kiryu. They then proceeded to try and wrestle while moving in sync with their partners. Yamashita & Kiryu came up with the bright idea to use a Backslide Pin together on their opponents to win the match and tie the competition. The final round was a Baton Relay race but it begun with a tug of war. The Red Team won that and were allowed take a head start while Nakajima had to make herself dizzy spinning around a baseball bat before the White Team could take off from the start line. The baton race was split into a bread eating contest, a sack race, a scavenger hunt, a ping pong ball carrying competition and then ended with Pom Harajuku beating Yuki Arai in a blindfold race to ensure the White Team scored more points than the Red Team.

The grand finale came down to a singles match between Arai and Harajuku. Since the White Team had the higher score, Harajuku’s advantage was she only need a 1 Count Pinfall to win. Arai would have to settle with needing a 2 Count Pinfall in order to be the victor. Harajuku tried many times to pin her opponent but Arai withstood her attacks and soon everyone piled into the ring to carry their captains into battle. When things calmed down, Harajuku covered Arai’s eyes with a blindfold but was still unable to get that 1 Count. Instead Arai trapped Harajuku in the Scorpion Death Lock to make her give up. After the match Arai said everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro will do their best in the new semester.

The International Princess Title is already scheduled to be defended in Las Vegas next week but the next contender after that had to be decided with a 5 Way Match that was one fall to a finish. It was everyone for themselves but alliances were still quickly made and then broken. Uta Takami kept trying to put Haru Kazashiro in the Koala Clutch but was stopped by Shino Suzuki and then Mifu Ashida. After that Ashida and HIMAWARI took each other out of action with a double down, leaving them as easy targets for Kazashiro and Suzuki to get rid of. That left Kazashiro and Suzuki left to fight it out in the ring. Kazashiro blocked the Belly-To-Belly Suplex and lifted Suzuki over into the Fisherman Suplex to win the match and get a IP Title shot for next month. She said this year is the first where she is entirely dedicated to being a pro wrestler so it was a goal of hers to get a singles title shot. Now that she has it she is determined not to lose the challenge on 4th May.

Meanwhile Sakura Hattori won a tag match against Suzume in a preview of the IP Title match happening in Vegas. Suzume said she has learned there are aspects about Hattori she never knew about and she has to keep focus solely on her for now. Hattori described her own performance as superb craftmanship and everyone should look forward to the finished product.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2026 ~NEXT DOOR~ IN FUKUOKA” Results

April 5, 2026

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2026 ~NEXT DOOR~ IN FUKUOKA”, 05/04/2026
Acros Fukuoka Event Hall
357 Fans

1. Sakura Hattori defeated Shion Kanzaki with the Rakkateicho (6:25).
2. 3 Way Match: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Hyper Misao and Ren Konatsu when Kiryu pinned Konatsu with the Apology-Style Cradle (8:41).
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer defeated Yuki Aino & Chika Nanase when Kamifuku pinned Nanase with the Famouser (10:41).
4. Mizuki defeated Wakana Uehara with the Cutie Special (8:48).
5. HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Mifu Ashida defeated Suzume, Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami when HIMAWARI pinned Kazashiro with the Sunflower Tempest (9:32).
6. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Raku & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Harajuku after they Daydream Eternity (13:48).
7. Miyu Yamashita & Shoko Nakajima defeated Yuki Arai & Toga when Yamashita pinned Toga with the Skull Kick (17:26).

Miyu Yamashita made it home to Fukuoka and had a pretty dramatic day to go with it. In the main event she got a bloody lip but toughed through it to get the victory. She told Shoko Nakajima they were able to win by sheer willpower. She then spoke to everyone about the recent news of her martial arts mentor recently passing away. Master Daijiro Matsuda of the Toughs Dojo in Fukuoka unexpectedly passed away in March. According to Yamashita, he was the person who first taught her martial arts and gave her the opportunity to become a pro wrestler. Yamashita said she fought with all of her might for him today and wanted to take this opportunity to talk about him. Nakajima bets Matsuda never expected Yamashita to become such a monster in the ring and probably laughed hysterically watching her matches. The two of them also talked about how tough Yuki Arai & Toga were today. It shows that Tokyo Joshi Pro’s ceiling keeps raising higher and higher so they should aim for the top!

Pom Harajuku wheeled out the “RakuPom Stall” where Raku offered to serve Daydream bowls of ramen during their match. They later tried to push it into their opponents but Miu Watanabe stopped it in their tracks and Rika Tatsumi crushed it by jumping onto it from the ring apron.

The majority of wrestlers currently involved in the International Princess Title scene were thrown into a 6-Woman Tag Match. The champion Suzume got to have a good look at the participants in the upcoming 5-Way No. 1 Contender match. It ended with HIMAWARI getting the win on the other team, pinning Haru Kazashiro with the Sunflower Tempest. HIMAWARI said she’s never been in a 5 Way Match before but around this time last year she won three matches in a single day to earn an IP Title shot. Mifu Ashida revealed that ever since she joined TJPW, the first championship she wanted to challenge for and win is the IP Title so she can go wrestle overseas more often. The recent Texas tour has only made her desire for it stronger. Shino Suzuki thinks she is the only person who should get the title shot for 4th May. There are so many things she wants to do as champion she doesn’t know where to start. Uta Takami believes she can pull off a big miracle that will surprise everyone by winning the 5 Way.

In a change from the normal events, Hyper Misao was attacked before she got the chance to speak on the microphone and it was by Mahiro Kiryu of all people! Kiryu framed Ren Konatsu for the attack but felt guilty about it and apologised later in the match during her Knee Drop spot. Konatsu was able to hit the Aries Comet on Misao later in the match but Kiryu cradled her into an Apology looking pinfall to win the match.

The Flying Forearm strike that Sakura Hattori does from the top rope with all of the ninja hand sign posing is called the Rakkateicho.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “HOME CHEER HOME ~MIFU ASHIDA HOMECOMING SHOW~”, 04/04/2026
Kyoto Fukuchiyama City Sandanike Park General Gymnasium
307 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Wakana Uehara defeated Shion Kanzaki with the Banana Pillow (6:28).
2. Sakura Hattori defeated Chika Nanase with the Shinden Fudo Ryu Majime Ura (6:33).
3. 3 Way Match: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Pom Harajuku and HIMAWARI when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Famouser (6:02).
4. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Raku & Mahiro Kiryu when Nakajima pinned Kiryu with La Magistral Cradle (9:10).

6. Suzume & Haru Kazashiro defeated Miyu Yamashita & Kira Summer when Suzume pinned Summer with the Ring A Bell (11:19).
7. Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida defeated Mizuki & Uta Takami when Ashida pinned Takami with the Cheerful Kick (11:39).

It’s been a little after a year since Mifu Ashida joined Tokyo Joshi Pro and today she got her first homecoming show with the company. She also got her first direct main event victory when she used a Crescent Kick to get the pinfall. She told the audience how happy she is to see everybody who had always taken care of her to show up today. When she grew up in Fukuchiyama she never thought about becoming a pro wrestling but it is thanks to pro wrestling that she is able to return and give back to the community. She also gave advice to the children in the audience to go try everything they want to do because they will broaden their future possibilities. Backstage Yuki Arai said her fighting style is completely different from Ashida’s and Ashida brings in qualities that she herself lacks. It makes Arai remember how great tag team wrestling is so she would like to go after the Princess Tag Team Titles again.

An argument broke out between Hyper Misao and Mahiro Kiryu over whose fault it was that the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title has now left TJPW. Misao demanded Kiryu to apologize but she wouldn’t, instead pointing the blame over at Raku. In the middle of that, Misao attacked Kiryu so their tag match could begin.

In the 3 Way Match Pom Harajuku ran over to the stage and pretended she was hosting a school entrance ceremony. She told Yuki Kamifuku to give everyone a speech and when she did, Harajuku snuck into the ring and tried to roll up HIMAWARI for a nearfall.

TJPW’s Upcoming International Lineups

April 2, 2026

Some of these lineups were already posted yesterday but given that we finally have the Vancouver matches announced I figure it would be good to do an roundup for Tokyo Joshi Pro’s upcoming overseas shows.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “VANCOUVER PREMIERE – DAY 1”, 11/04/2026
Great Canadian Hastings Racecourse & Casino, Vancouver, BC, Canada

1. Suzume Vs Alexia Nicole
2. Miyu Yamashita & HIMAWARI Vs Nicole Matthews & Liiza Hall
3. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Shino Suzuki
4. Sakura Hattori & Toga Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
5. Uta Takami Vs Amira
6. Yuki Arai & Wakana Uehara Vs J-Rod & Miu Watanabe

The cards for next week’s Vancouver tour are now out. The two main events will build up the Yuki Arai versus J-Rod match happening in Las Vegas a couple of days later. There are also some guest faces old and new appearing. Amira has wrestled on several of TJPW’s American shows in the past, the ones that were co-promoted with local companies like Prestige and DEFY. Same with Liiza Hall on a smaller level. Alicia Nicole is making her first TJPW appearance here.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “VANCOUVER PREMIERE – DAY 2”, 12/04/2026
Great Canadian Hastings Racecourse & Casino, Vancouver, BC, Canada

1. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Wakana Uehara & Toga
2. Miyu Yamashita Vs Nicole Matthews
3. Miu Watanabe Vs Cherry Blossom
4. Liiza Hall & Uta Takami Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
5. Yuki Kamifuku Vs Kristara
6. Yuki Arai & Suzume Vs J-Rod & Sakura Hattori

Nicole Matthews is one of Miyu Yamashita’s regular opponents from her previous tours of Canada so it’s fitting that they will have a quick program going on in this Vancouver tour. Kristara and Cherry Blossom (what a fitting name to have on the show at this time of year) are the newcomers showing up on Night 2.

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

1. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Toga & Uta Takami
2. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Alexis Lee, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki
3. Special 3 Way Match: Miyu Yamashita Vs Mizuki Vs Miu Watanabe
4. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) Vs Sakura Hattori
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs J-Rod

When J-Rod has been over in Japan, she’s been friendly towards Arai. It kind of helps that they haven’t wrestled each other before. But with a big title match happening in Las Vegas soon, J-Rod wants to become the first American Princess Of Princess Champion. With that being said, she also wants to teach Arai the lesson that pro wrestling is not a fairy tale or a place to have dreams. Arai believes that those who have dreams are strong and when they have something to protect like a championship, they are even stronger.

Kyoraku Kyomei are betting on themselves to be the heroes that take the Princess Tag Team Titles back from The IInspiration. On the one hand, Hyper Misao thinks it will be a fun story for a team like them to beat a team of gorgeous champions. Shoko Nakajima however wants to reinforce that her team are fighting their hearts out while Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee seem to be taking everything lightly during their appearances in TJPW so far. Lee claims that she and McKay are fighting champions who will carve out their own history in TJPW.

Shortly after Suzume won the International Princess Title she was given a scroll by Sakura Hattori challenging her to a title shot. Hattori has since sent another scroll explaining that she has made Suzume her next target and she will take the title from her in Las Vegas. Suzume said she loves fighting Kaya Toribami but doesn’t know anything about her new form. One thing she has noticed though is Toribami would not have challenged her as quickly as Hattori is doing. Suzume also wonders if Hattori is a ninja, does that mean she’s always hiding nearby listening in on her?

EVE/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “EVE X TJPW”, 25/04/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima Vs Hollie Barlow
2. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Round 1: Miyu Yamashita Vs Aliss Ink
3. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Final: X Vs X

There were hints made by EVE that some familiar friends were coming over to England at the end of April. We now know it’s the follow up to the EVE x TJPW that took place back in the summer of 2024. Yamashita and Nakajima will be taking part in a tournament to determine a future challenger for the EVE International Title. Yamashita gets to fight another striker in the form of Aliss Ink while Nakajima is going to pick on somebody her own size for once when she faces Hollie Barlow.

Hyper Misao and Yuki Aino will also be making the trip over to London.

SAJ/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SAJ X TJPW”, 26/04/2026
Centro Sport Cesate, Milan, Italy

1. Mirko Mori, Nico Inverardi & Adriano Vs Goro, Merak & Spencer
2. Shoko Nakajima Vs Kanji
3. Sebastian De Witt Vs Miyu Yamashita
4. SAJ Openweight Title: Lupo (c) Vs Kouga

The same crew heads over to Milan the next day joined by a straggler from NOAH. Yamashita is unbeaten in SAJ Wrestling and was meant to get a title match only. However the champion Sebastian De Witt lost the belt a few weeks ago so there goes Yamashita’s chance at winning some Italian gold. Instead Kouga, the former Yu Owada/Owadasan is getting the title shot instead. Away from that corner of the show, Nakajima and Kanji cross paths again after being on the same international team together in CMLL last October.


DDT Around The World – March 2026

April 1, 2026

This month was a lot more tiring to write than usual for some reason. Probably it’s because I’m writing most of this after going through the DDT Anniversary show, the Tokyo Joshi Pro preview for Sumo Hall and then the Sumo Hall show itself. That’s a lot of typing for me to do lately. So I’ll keep this introduction brief. Miyu Yamashita went on a short tear in Europe this month, Konosuke Takeshita feuded with Jon Moxley over the AEW Continental Title, TJPW now runs Texas and Daisuke Sasaki has started his North American adventure. Next month is WrestleMania Week. I’m making the foolish decision to travel there mainly because I got a good deal for flights and the hotel in Vegas right around the time when WWE pulled the rug from under New Orleans. I’ll be at the TJPW show and might see Sasaki or some of the TJPW girls wrestle somewhere else.

EVE “WOMEN BEHAVING BADLY #IWD2026”, 06/03/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. Jamie Hayter Vs Miyu Yamashita ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
1a. Overtime: Jamie Hayter Vs Miyu Yamashita ended in a Time Limit Draw (5:00).

The match that had everyone talking from EVE’s big weekend was Yamashita locking horns with Jamie Hayter for a twenty minute spectacle that hit harder than anyone anticipated. As they fought into the final seconds of the match Yamashita kept kicking Hayter until she was given a Backbreaker and then the Lariat before the bell rang for a draw. However protests from Hayter convinced the show producer Will Ospreay to restart the match for five more minutes. Yamashita got back into another slugfest with Hayter with neither wanting to give up. The Skull Kick led to a double down with 40 seconds to go and Yamashita wasn’t fast enough to pin Hayter in time with a Buzzsaw Kick that happened right at the finish. The two shook hands after the draw but made it clear they had unfinished business together.

1. Miyu Yamashita defeated Nightshade with the Crash Rabbit Heat (?:??).

With hardly any good time to rest, Yamashita made it to Spain the next night for her first match with RCW Spain in a year. She survived taking Running Cannonballs into the corner from Nightshade and avoided a Neck Hanging Bomb to knock down her opponent with the Skull Kick. While Nightshade was put to her knees and collapsing after every kick, Yamashita made sure to keep up the attacks until she finished her off with the Crash Rabbit Heat.


AEW “COLLISION”, 07/03/2026
Tucson Arena, Tucson, Arizona, USA

1. Konosuke Takeshita defeated Claudio Castagnoli with the Raging Fire (14:39).

With only a week left for the PPV, Takeshita was so close to his big title match with Moxley but first he had to get through Claudio Castagnoli. Moxley watched on while providing match commentary, keeping his hands clean throughout the whole thing. Castagnoli thought tried to cheat by grabbing his CMLL World Heavyweight Title belt with the intention of using it as a weapon. However Hechicero ran down to the ring to stop him, allowing Takeshita to dive onto Castagnoli and get him back into the ring. The match wasn’t won yet but Takeshita rolled his way out of the Ricola Bomb to hit Castagnoli with the Powerdrive Knee and then pin him with the Raging Fire. Things weren’t done with there because Takeshita and Moxley had a stare down after the match. Hechicero blindsided Moxley much to Takeshita’s surprise and a brawl then broke out between the Death Riders and The Don Callis Family.


EVE “WRESTLE QUEENDOM VIII”, 08/03/2026
Indigo At The O2, London, England

1. Sudden Death Sixteen: Alexxis Falcon defeated Jamie Hayter, Miyu Yamashita, DASH Chisako, Anita Vaughan, Lucy Sky, Nyla Rose, Aluna, Lil Marz, Emersyn Jane, Princesse Lauriana, Yuu, Molly Spartan, Nightshade, Abi Cartwright and Charlie Morgan (34:43).

The unfinished business between Yamashita and Hayter started right back up again two days later when they were the first two entrants taking part in EVE’s Sudden Death Sixteen match. Imagine the Casino Gauntlet match where it is one fall to a finish but you still get taken out of the match if you are thrown out of the ring Royal Rumble style. Sadly for Yamashita and Hayter that is what happened to them when they knocked each other out of the ring, causing yet another draw in their sudden rivalry. Surely it cannot end like that!


AEW “DYNAMITE”, 11/03/2026
San Jose Civic, San Jose, California, USA

1. Jon Moxley & Claudio Castagnoli (w/ Marina Shafir) defeated Konosuke Takeshita & Hechicero when Castagnoli pinned Hechicero with an Inside Cradle (14:09).

The previous week’s scuffle set the stage for this tag match to take place as on the go home show for the PPV. Neither Takeshita or Moxley could get the upper hand to each other so it was left up to Castagnoli to break the deadlock. A near ref bump threw Hechicero off enough for him to get poke in the eye and Castagnoli then rolled him up in a Small Package to steal the win. More fighting continued when Don Callis ordered Lance Archer & Mark Davis down to the ring but Takeshita showed a change of heart when he refused to attack Moxley with a chair. The message Takeshita wanted to send is he wanted to beat Moxley at his best. However the other members of the Family didn’t share the same feelings and felt he just wasted a perfect opportunity to get the upper hand.


PPW “HARDCORE FRIDAY THE 13TH”, 13/03/2026
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. Hardcore Match: Chris Brookes defeated Gabriel Queen (14:11).

The Polish company PpW Ewenement Wrestling held a mini tour of Japan with two shows in Tokyo during the month. The big one had Chris Brookes involved in the opening match taking on Gabriel Queen. Despite its early placement on the card it was also made into a Hardcore bout, one that drew blood from Brookes and left him busted wide open! Queen didn’t take it seriously at first because he armed himself with a toy mallet. Brookes immediately turned it up a notch by pulling out a stapler in response. A plastic case smashing over Brookes is what cut his forehead open but he would cover up his wound. Queen would later put Brookes in the Crossface but Baliyan Akki would slide the stapler to Brookes from ringside so he could staple Queen’s hand and free himself from the hold. The violence would ramp up even more with chairs being piled up in the ring and Brookes would Superplex Queen onto them. He then got his own back using the plastic cases by slamming Queen through one with the Michinoku Driver for the victory.


AEW “REVOLUTION”, 15/03/2026
Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, California, USA

1. AEW Continental Title – No Time Limit: Jon Moxley (c) defeated Konosuke Takeshita (23:32).
*V2 for Jon Moxley.

Takeshita got the bad end to his story with Moxley but at least it was one hell of a match between them. Moxley busted Takeshita open and damaged his leg enough that it stopped him from doing the Powerdrive Knee late in the bout. Takeshita kept on fighting, kicking out of not just the regular Death Rider but a top rope version of it too! Moxley switched his plan over to using a submission hold and he fought to put him into a Rear Naked Choke. Takeshita flipped him off with a middle finger but couldn’t escape the move, losing consciousness and also the match. You know how it goes with Moxley in AEW. You bleed in the ring with him, you earn his respect. Takeshita eventually shook his hand after the match to make it so.

AEW “COLLISION – SLAM DUNK SUNDAY”, 18/03/2026 (Aired 22/03/2026)
Save Mart Center At Fresno State, Fresno, California, USA

1. Mistico, Mike Bailey & Kevin Knight defeated Konosuke Takeshita & Josh Alexander & El Clon when Mistico submits Clon with La Mistica (13:10).

Takeshita got a change of pace for his first match after the PPV by getting into some fast pace trios action with a familiar face on the other team. Always nice to see Takeshita and Mike Bailey in the same ring together. Disaster struck for the Callis Family when Josh Alexander got injured from blocking Bailey’s Standing Moonsault Knee Drop with his own knees. Takeshita & El Clon had to wrestle the rest of the match one man down. Kevin Knight had Takeshita scouted by escaping the Raging Fire and leaping onto Takeshita to give him a DDT that planted him onto the canvas. Mistico went on to tap out Clon with La Mistica.

AEW “DYNAMITE”, 25/03/2026
Roy Wilkins Auditorium, St. Paul, Minnesota, USA

0. Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona defeated Daisuke Sasaki & Paul Virk (?:??).

I can’t find much information online but Daisuke Sasaki worked a dark match at AEW before that night’s Dynamite show. The ring had the ROH aprons so it was likely taped for their weekly show. I’ll correct the info if that turns out to be the case. Sasaki teamed up with local Minnesota wrestler Paul Virk to lose against The Gates Of Agony.


ROH/MLP “GLOBAL WARS”, 27/03/2026
St. Clair College, Windsor, Ontario, Canada

1. 6 Pack Scramble: Michael Oku defeated Jake Crist, Daisuke Sasaki, Michael Allen Richard Clark, Ace Austin and Brent Banks when Oku pinned Crist with the Six Star Frog Splash (10:26).

Sasaki was advertised for the ROH joint show with Maple Leaf Pro but it wasn’t known in advance what he would get up to. It turns out he was the replacement for Barbaro Cavernario in a 6 Pack Scramble match. He was pretty much lost in the shuffle for most of the match.


MLP “UPRISING”, 28/03/2026
St. Clair College, Windsor, Ontario, Canada

1. No DQ Match: Daisuke Sasaki defeated Bryce Hansen with a chair assisted Diving Splash (8:12).

Sasaki had more to do on the next night’s MLP show when a backstage confrontation with Bryce Hansen forced a No DQ Match to take place between them. Don Callis was on commentary and seemed to be impressed with Sasaki’s dirty tactics. Sasaki hit Hansen below the belt with a kendo stick, Speared him twice into a table (because it didn’t break the first time) and then pinned him with a flying chair dive from the top rope onto the rubble below.

Upcoming Appearances


GCW “LAST CALL”, 03/04/2026
FSW Arena, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

With Canada out of the way, Sasaki heads on over to America for a couple of GCW appearances. He has two trips to Las Vegas in him and the first is for a match against Marcus Mathers.


GCW “MANIAC”, 04/04/2026
Ukrainian Culture Center, Los Angeles, California, USA

1. GCW World Title: Atticus Cogar (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki

Sasaki’s big hopes of becoming a triple crown champion have gone up in smoke after he lost the DDT Universal Title before leaving Japan. He can still be a double champion if he can beat Atticus Cogar for the GCW World Title and then remember he still has the O-40 Title back home.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “VANCOUVER PREMIERE – DAY 1”, 11/04/2026
Great Canadian Hastings Racecourse & Casino, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Less than two weeks to go and not a lot announced. J-Rod is officially booked for the Vancouver shows so she might get a warm up match with Yuki Arai before they get to Las Vegas.


TOKYO JOSHI PRO “VANCOUVER PREMIERE – DAY 2”, 12/04/2026
Great Canadian Hastings Racecourse & Casino, Vancouver, BC, Canada

What’s the hold up, Sayuri Namba?

Toga is starting things off early for WrestleMania Week.


PANDEMONIUM PRO “WHATEVER, FOREVER”, 15/04/2026
Bizarre Bar, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Jiah Jewell Vs Daisuke Sasaki

I heard about Jiah Jewell being this crazy wrestler last year but his match with MAO wasn’t much to write about. Maybe Sasaki will get a better fight out of him this year.


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

1. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Toga & Uta Takami

6. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs J-Rod

This is the full card for TJPW’s return to Las Vegas. Three championship matches fill up the second half but the match that will surely be the talk of the show will be the 3 Way between Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki and Miu Watanabe.


“DEATH VEGAS INVITACIONAL”, 16/04/2026
Horseshoe, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Daisuke Sasaki Vs X

I’m not expecting Sasaki’s match on this show to be anything spectacular given the lineup so far. Maybe stick him in the ring with ISHIN for something?


GCW “JOSH BARNETT’S BLOODSPORT XV”, 17/04/2026
Horseshoe, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Miyu Yamashita Vs Janai Kai

Yamashita’s doesn’t have a good winning record against Janai Kai under regular wrestling rules. Is Bloodsport rules the ingredient needed for her to change that?


PRIDESTYLE “OUT OF THIS WORLD”, 17/04/2026
Bizarre Bar, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

1. Special Single Match: Taniya Vs Miu Watanabe

There might be other TJPW related stuff happening during the week (Maple Leaf Pro’s show looks like it will be crossover heavy) but for the moment it looks like Watanabe’s appearance at PrideStyle will be the last TJPW related match on the schedule.


EVE/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “EVE X TJPW”, 25/04/2026
Big Penny Social, London, England

1. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima Vs Hollie Barlow
2. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Round 1: Miyu Yamashita Vs Aliss Ink
3. EVE International Title Next Contender Tournament – Final: X Vs X

The TJPW contingent heading over to Italy at the end of April have another stop planned in England. EVE is hosting TJPW for a second combined show and this one is being built around a one night mini-tournament to crown the No. 1 Contender for the EVE International Title. Yamashita and Shoko Nakajima are taking part on the TJPW side while EVE is being represented by Hollie Barlow and Aliss Ink. Barlow is apparantly the same height as Nakajima while Ink wants to see if her strikes are at the level of Yamashita’s.


SAJ/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SAJ X TJPW”, 26/04/2026
Centro Sport Cesate, Milan, Italy

1. Mirko Mori, Nico Inverardi & Adriano Vs Goro, Merak & Spencer
2. Shoko Nakajima Vs Kanji
3. Sebastian De Witt Vs Miyu Yamashita
4. SAJ Openweight Title: Lupo (c) Vs Kouga

Plans changed a little bit for the SAJ Wrestling show in Italy. Yamashita’s match against Sebastian De Witt was supposed to be for the SAJ Openweight Title but De Witt lost it at another show earlier this month. Funnily enough the NOAH wrestler now known as Kouga is getting the title shot on this show instead. Nakajima’s match on the show will be a first time meeting with Kanji. TJPW would be good to get Kanji over for a tour or two if she’s up for it.

JioSpace, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia

Espace Isabelle de Hainaut, Rue de Saint-Quentin, Bapaume, France

1. MAO & Yoshihiko Vs X & X

MAO & Yoshihiko are heading back to France! They still hold the BZW Tag Team Titles so who will BZW find to challenge them this time? GCW are involved so could it be a team often seen over there?

Turbinenhalle 1, Oberhausen, Germany

1. Jun Akiyama Vs X

4. Special Tag Match ~ Yuni University Entrance Commemorative Match: Shunma Katsumata & Yuni Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura Vs Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku
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
