TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STEP FORWARD ’25” Results

November 29, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STEP FORWARD ’25”, 29/11/2025
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall
288 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Toga defeated Chika Nanase with the Rock Bottom (8:28).
2. Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Uta Takami & Ren Konatsu defeated Harajuku pinned Konatsu with the Pom de Justice (8:23).
3. Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Mizuki & Mifu Ashida when Aino pinned Ashida with the Venus DDT (10:40).
4. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao defeated Yuki Arai and Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Kiryu with La Magistral Cradle (8:04).
5. Arisu Endo defeated Shino Suzuki with the Ju no Okite (8:39).
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Kaya Toribami & Kira Summer when Kamifuku pinned Summer with the Famouser (11:28).
7. Miu Watanabe & Shoko Nakajima defeated Suzume & HIMAWARI when Nakajima pinned HIMAWARI with the Northern Lights Suplex (15:42).

Today’s victory was a given for Miu Watanabe & Shoko Nakajima because according to Nakajima they are Mega Double Champions when they team together. Watanabe taunted Suzume by holding up the Princess Of Princess Title for her to see after the match but she acknowledged how much of a “nimble bee” she is and is being careful not to get stung by her. The winning team also gave thanks to Osaka because today’s show is the last to be held in this part of Japan in 2025. Suzume did throw her support behind Watanabe for her Princess Title defence against Matcha in Thailand next month. She appreciates that Watanabe is not putting her own title reign on hold just because Suzume has the big title shot scheduled for 4th January. She believes in herself too and can see herself beating Watanabe to become the new champion in the new year.

A new tag team has been established and they are already gunning for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Right after Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro won their match, Kazashiro asked if they could become a proper tag team. She said she isn’t Nodoka Tenma or Ryo Mizunami but she wants to be by Aino’s side forever. Aino said she’s been waiting for Kazashiro to ask her and she needs to make a promise that they go wild in Tokyo Joshi Pro and both become stronger in the process. YukiHaru then reappeared at ringside after the Ober Eats match to challenge them for the Princess Tag Titles. While Yuki Kamifuku was in the middle of thinking about it, Wakana Uehara couldn’t contain her excitement at being challenged for the first time and quickly accepted it. Kamifuku then decided they should do the match on 4th January because Uehara will get to eat a lot of food during the New Year period, which means she will be at her strongest by the time the match takes place. She also warned Uehara not to accept a challenge like this on her own again.

Pom Harajuku spent a lot of her match holding her hand out like it was a gun and threatening to shoot her opponents with it.

Dieno Still Out Of Action, The Great Baka Mecha Wars, Title Matches In Bangkok

November 25, 2025

DDT “BAN’ETSU EAST LINE TRAIN PRO WRESTLING”, 29/11/2025
Ban-etsu East Line Train

There will be a train ride leaving Koriyama Station to the destination Iwaki Station where several street pro wrestling matches will be held. The matches will be announced on the day of the show.

The wrestlers taking part include Yuki Ueno, To-y, MAO, KANON, HARASHIMA, Kazusada Higuchi (replacing Danshoku Dieno who hasn’t been cleared to wrestle), Chris Brookes, Kazuki Hirata, Yukio Naya, Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku and Kazuma Sumi. Several of them will be on the train ride too.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “STEP FORWARD ’25”, 29/11/2025
Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall

1. Toga Vs Chika Nanase
2. Arisu Endo Vs Shino Suzuki
3. Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Uta Takami & Ren Konatsu
4. Mizuki & Mifu Ashida Vs Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao Vs Yuki Arai & Mahiro Kiryu
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara Vs Kaya Toribami & Kira Summer
7. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi Vs Suzume & HIMAWARI

The Princess Of Princess Title match buildup is getting more serious with the big guns now starting to appear. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi are teaming up as Daydream again for the first time since July to give Suzume a big challenge ahead of the title match. Suzume isn’t teaming with Arisu Endo to reform Daisy Monkey though. Maybe that will happen down the line. Instead she is teaming with HIMAWARI.

Miyu Yamashita won’t be on the show because she is still on her European tour.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 26: WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER?”, 02/12/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. The Great Baka Mecha Wars Volume 2: Mecha MAO Vs Takagi Sanshirobo (w/ Mad Dr. Hige) Vs X
2. BK-G Openweight Title – Mascara Contra Mascara: Mr. Malo (c) Vs Mr. Bueno

It’s been a while since Mecha MAO and Takagi Sanshirobo fought their epic mecha battles in front of everyone. Now a third mecha is entering the fight. The X in the The Great Baka Mecha Wars has been greatly hinted to be something in the form of Minoru Suzuki. The possibility of it brings my memories back to Suzuki’s infamous match with Mecha Mummy at a MUSCLE show where a Gotch-Style Piledriver into a shallow lake caused a massive explosion that destroyed Mecha Mummy while leaving Suzuki with a significant piece of technology embedded in his eye. Imagine thinking we would ever get a follow up to that ending 16 years later?

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW X OCHA NORMA – OCHA PRO☆KORAKUEN”, 07/12/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Arisu Endo & Uta Takami Vs HIMAWARI & Haru Kazashiro
2. Ryo Mizunami, Raku & Pom Harajuku Vs Mahiro Kiryu, Shino Suzuki & Chika Nanase
3. Ochanor Mask & Kaya Toribami Vs Wakana Uehara & Ren Konatsu
4. OCHA Pro Seikigun Vs Coffee Breakers: Miyu Yamashita, Rika Tatsumi & Mifu Ashida Vs Hyper Misao, Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer
5. Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Toga Vs Mizuki, Suzume & Yuki Arai

The full card of the show’s wrestling portion has been decided. Miyu Yamashita, Rika Tatsumi & Mifu Ashida are joining forces as die hard fans of OCHA NORMA to defend the group’s honour against the Coffee Breakers of Hyper Misao, Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer.

The two masked women are being paired together as a tag team. Surely Kaya Toribami will find something in common with the newcomer Ochanor Mask.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW LIVE IN BANGKOK”, 13/12/2025
The Circus Studio, G Village, Bangkok, Thailand

1. IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Titles: Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami (c) Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku
2. MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title: Shoko Nakajima (c) Vs Alexis Lee
3. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Matcha

Two more title matches are added to the Thailand show, one of which clears up a piece of reporting from Fightful’s paywall that ended up being unintentionally sloppy. Their Patreon page reported that MLW are expecting Shoko Nakajima to defend the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title in Asia again in the next coming months. The problem is they reported this just days after she had a title defence in Japan for Tokyo Joshi Pro and they clearly had no idea that had happened, so it came off as both a late slip as well as “No shit, Sherlock.” Now we see that the title defence being talked about is this match against Alexis Lee that is happening at TJPW’s Thailand show but again, Fightful’s never gave any detail like that so their reporting still comes off like nobody over there pays attention to the product (and continues my gripes over MLW news often being just glorified press releases). Considering part of their audience for a time thought Marigold closed down because they hadn’t heard anything about the company from the site since its first Sumo Hall event shows how bad their general Japan coverage is. Even their recent report that many of New Japan’s deals with their wrestlers no longer default to January every year is old news to the die hard fans.

The new IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Champions will hold their first defence of the titles in Thailand. Yamashita & Toribami’s opponents are two wrestlers who have held championships in SETUP before and even fought over it in TJPW. Do Raku & Pom Harajuku have it in them to win more gold in Southeast Asia?

There will also be a small scale SETUP show taking place the same afternoon before this show although I don’t know if anyone from TJPW will be on it.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI PRO ’26”, 04/01/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Shoko Nakajima Vs Hyper Misao
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Suzume

January will see J-Rod come back to TJPW for a second tour. She will be at the 4th January show in Korakuen Hall as well as the 10th January show in Shinjuku FACE.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW KAKUKAKU FESTIVAL” Results

November 24, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW KAKUKAKU FESTIVAL PART 1 TEAM TJ”, 24/11/2025
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
173 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase with the Bird Cage (8:05).
2. Hyper Misao defeated HIMAWARI with La Magistral Cradle (9:34).
3. Arisu Endo defeated Kira Summer with the Camel Clutch (9:27).
4. Miu Watanabe defeated Rika Tatsumi with the Tear Drop (13:18).
5. Yuki Kamifuku & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Arai & Uta Takami when Aino pinned Takami with the Venus DDT (11:39).

An uncommon doubleheader held at Itabashi Green Hall today split the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster into two camps. The first show of the day featured wrestlers from “Team TJ“. It also happened to have all of Yuki Yuki Yuki taking part in the main event. Yuki Kamifuku & Yuki Aino got to team up as Double YUKI, leaving out Yuki Arai so she had to team with Uta Takami. At one point Double YUKI wound up switching bodies so Kamifuki wrestled like Aino and vice versa. When they turned back to normal, Kamifuku blamed Takami for causing it to happen. Kamifuku admitted after the match she lost track of what happened but learned the important lesson that you should love yourself because everyone is unique. Aino said it’s a miracle that there are so many Yuki’s in TJPW.

Mahiro Kiryu’s scheduled match with Rika Tatsumi was called off because Tatsumi was feeling unwell and couldn’t be at the show. Miu Watanabe was brought in to work double duty for the day, becoming Kiryu’s new opponent on the day show before moving on to wrestle again in the evening event. Both of them tried to imitate Tatsumi’s “Let’s Go!” Elbow Drop but both of them also missed the move. Kiryu tried to apologise over it while Watanabe stopped her. Kiryu then got angry because you never interrupt an apology and the two started arguing while kneeling to each other. When they went back to fighting, Watanabe’s knees became numb from the kneeling so Kiryu took her out of the ring and made her kneel on the floor in an attempt to count her out. Watanabe struggled but made it back into the ring at the 19 count. She recovered from the unusual leg work to win the match with the Tear Drop.

It’s been a busy week for HIMAWARI as she has been performing in a stage play when not wrestling in matches. Hyper Misao wanted to see HIMAWARI show off her talent and made her recite some of her lines from the play but it was just so she could roll her up from behind to try and get an early victory.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW KAKUKAKU FESTIVAL PART 2 TEAM PW”, 24/11/2025
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
190 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Raku defeated Ren Konatsu with the Front Neck Lock (7:33).
2. Wakana Uehara defeated Mifu Ashida with the Sushi Tornado (9:09).
3. Mizuki defeated Shino Suzuki with the Face Lock (10:34).
4. Shoko Nakajima defeated Pom Harajuku with the Northern Lights Suplex (11:58).
5. Miu Watanabe & Toga defeated Suzume & Haru Kazashiro when Watanabe pinned Kazashiro with the Tear Drop (14:27).

Watanabe wrestled again on the evening show as part of the “Team PW” half of the roster. She had to be more focused for this one because Suzume, her next opponent for the Princess Of Princess Title was facing her in the main event tag bout. Suzume got to land the Ring A Bell on Watanabe but Toga was there to run in and keep her partner out of trouble. Haru Kazashiro tried to take on Watanabe in Suzume’s place but ended up getting pinned with the Tear Drop for her troubles. After the match Watanabe talked about the fun day she had in Itabashi while Toga reminded her she was only here for the evening show. Watanabe now has to concentrate on her title defences with both Suzume and Matcha. She’s going to do her best to give 120% in those matches. Although Suzume lost today, she feels her skills and attitude are currently on par with Watanabe. From now until 4th January she is only going to think about fighting her.

Today is the 7th Anniversary of Pom Harajuku’s debut match. To celebrate the occasion she decided to get a brand new costume to wrestle in and since her opponent was the “Big Kaiju” Shoko Nakajima, she walked out wearing an inflated T-Rex suit! The costume doubled her power and made Headbutting very effective against Nakajima. She chased her around ringside where Nakajima used Mifu Ashida and Ren Konatsu as human shields only for them to bounce off of Harajuku. Back in the ring Nakajima found the suit’s weak spot and with a well aimed punch it began to deflate. Nakajima continued to pound on the suit unaware that Harajuku crawled out of it to safety. A sneak attack from Harajuku didn’t last and Nakajima instead beat her with the Rider Kick, 619 and Northern Lights Suplex combo. Harajuku thanked everyone for helping her make it to seven years in wrestling because she wouldn’t have gotten here on her own. She’ll continue to work hard as a pro wrestler. She also said all of that while wearing the T-Rex costume.

Ashida and Wakana Uehara spent part of their match having a cheerleading contest. It ended when Ashida rolled up Uehara from behind for a nearfall.

Raku wore a sheep hat to look like the sheep doll that Konatsu keeps on her belt buckle. Both sheep greeted each other before the match began.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “UTA TAKAMI TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~HYAKUMANGOKU SMILE IN KANAZAWA~” Results

November 22, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “UTA TAKAMI TRIUMPHANT RETURN ~HYAKUMANGOKU SMILE IN KANAZAWA~”, 22/11/2025
Kanazawa Ryutsu Kaikan
256 Fans – No Vacancy

1. Shino Suzuki defeated Ren Konatsu with a Modified Cobra Clutch (7:07).
2. Suzume defeated Mifu Ashida with the Ring A Bell (8:01).
3. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Rika Tatsumi, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Hyper Misao, Mahiro Kiryu (c) & Kaya Toribami when Tatsumi submitted Kiryu with the White Dragon Sleeper (9:46).
*Rika Tatsumi becomes the 1,786th champion.
4. Yuki Arai defeated Kira Summer with the Scorpion Death Lock (6:53).
5. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Yuki Aino & Chika Nanase when Uehara pinned Nanase with the Sushi Tornado (11:23).
6. Mizuki & Toga defeated Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Mizuki pinned Kazashiro with the Cutie Special (12:55).
7. Shoko Nakajima & HIMAWARI defeated Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami when Nakajima pinned Takami with the Northern Lights Suplex (16:36).

Today was Uta Takami’s day in the spotlight with the show taking place in her home of region of Ishikawa. She put up a spirited fight in the main event, particularly with Shoko Nakajima near the end. However Nakajima kept breaking out of the Koala Clutch, hit Takami with some Rider Kicks and pinned her with the Northern Lights Suplex. Nakajima told everyone that she’s been wrestling twice as long as Takami but today’s match was so fun she is giving her a perfect score! While Takami was happy from seeing so many people turn out for her today, she admits she still has a long way to go. She promised that Tokyo Joshi Pro will grow even bigger so they can come back to Ishikawa again. Miu Watanabe also praised Takami in their backstage interview for having a strong desire to improve.

An Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title change happened on the show when Rika Tatsumi submitted Mahiro Kiryu in a 6-Woman Tag Match. It was a match where Tatsumi, Raku & Pom Harajuku all pretended to be crabs at the start because crabs are a local delicacy in Ishikawa. After Tatsumi won the title, Raku tried to obscure her vision with an eye mask and rolled her up for a nearfall. Tatsumi escaped and once she was safe she gave an interview to a backstage reporter. She didn’t plan to win the title back from Kiryu today but it just happened to go that way. In another coincidence, Ishikawa is where her favorite OCHA NORMA idol Natsume Nakayama is from so maybe this is fate playing out. Her goal to gift Nakayama the Iron Man Title at the “OCHA PRO☆KORAKUEN” show next month is back on track! However, Kiryu says she is going to get her championship back at Itabashi Green Hall tomorrow because it just so happens that she and Tatsumi have a singles match against each other scheduled there.

Some more details about how the show will work out has been revealed. The event consists of two 25 minute long live performances from OCHA NORMA as well as five wrestling matches from Tokyo Joshi Pro. There will also be a performance from The Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) where they will cover an OCHA NORMA song. Some of the idols will be doing either commentary or ring announcing for the matches.

Not everyone will be welcoming OCHA NORMA in with open arms though. The group is often associated with tea but there are wrestlers in TJPW who much prefer to drink coffee instead. They are Yuki Kamifuku and Hyper Misao and they will be showing up to the event as the Coffee Breakers!

The Circus Studio, G Village, Bangkok, Thailand

You never forget where you came from. Yuu never forgot where she came from either. It’s been seven years since she graduated from Tokyo Joshi Pro and she hadn’t stepped foot back inside until today. She will be retiring from pro wrestling at the end of the year but before that can happen she just had to come by for one last appearance. For the special match Yuu teamed with Yuki Kamifuku to take on Miyu Yamashita & Shoko Nakajima, two former rivals she has fought with over the Princess Of Princess Title in the past. Yamashita relished the chance to kick her again while Yuu took the blows and threw her around just as hard. Nakajima and Kamifuku weren’t left out of the action either and all four of them were spent when the bell rang for a time limit draw.

After the match Kamifuku got on the microphone to welcome Yuu back to TJPW. She told Yuu how sad she was when Yuu left the promotion but Kamifuku used that as motivation to work harder. Now she is a champion leading the younger generation. She joked that Yuu couldn’t imagine this matchup ending in a draw knowing how often Kamifuku lost her matches back then. She has improved so much that she wants her three seniors to start praising her. As soon as this match was announced, Yamashita was reminded of all the times she and Yuu exchanged blows like crazy. Today was just like that and even though Yamashita’s chest was left red, it felt so good. The red marks will go away but the Chops Yuu gave her will always be in her heart. Nakajima pointed out that she is the same age as Yuu and they share the same birthday. However when it comes to wrestling Nakajima is a little bit older so it makes her sad to see Yuu is retiring before her.

Yuu promised she wasn’t going to cry until she retires but she couldn’t help doing it today because she’s never going to fight with these wrestlers again. She was the first woman to graduate from TJPW but continue wrestling elsewhere. While she didn’t always see eye to eye with Tetsuya Koda, she wanted to take this chance to thank him along with everyone else in the company for giving her a warm send off at the time. She loves pro wrestling and is truly grateful that she’ll be able to retire while still loving it. From next year onwards she will support TJPW as a fan.

When Match #3 began Raku immediately asked Yuki Aino for a hug and offered her an eye mask so they could take a nap in the ring together. Mizuki told Aino not to take the offer but Aino couldn’t resist. Raku quickly rolled her up for a nearfall but Aino kicked out and briefly wrestled while still having the eye mask blocking her sight. She went on to handle HIMAWARI while Mizuki pinned Raku with the Cutie Special.

Rika Tatsumi tried to be polite to Gabai Ji-chan by holding down the bottom ring rope for him to enter the ring but he decided to trip her down with his walking cane. Then as they wrestled, Tatsumi strangled Ji-chan in the corner until he fainted. She got upset thinking he died but he was only playing possum to roll her up for a nearfall. He also did the Old School rope walk by using his cane for assitance. Tatsumi pulled the cane away, causing him to get crotched on the ropes. Ji-chan tried fighting back but his legs kept giving up on him whenever he attempted a Body Slam. He also injured his knee from giving Tatsumi (with her diamond hips) an Atomic Drop. Tatsumi worked the leg but that couldn’t stop Ji-chan from suddenly using Keiji Muto’s moveset from the Dragon Screw to the Shining Wizard to the Ribbreaker. He then went for the Moonsault, landing on his feet when Tatsumi moved out of the way and injuring his knee again. That ended up costing him the match because when he later tried to put on a Figure 4 Leg Lock, Tatsumi turned over to reverse it and he immediately tapped out from the pain.

Fresh off of winning the IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Titles with Yamashita last week, Kaya Toribami fought Toga in a singles match. She countered the Rock Bottom to roll Toga into position for an Enzuigiri and then once Toga was laid into position, Toribami pinned her with the Sento Choryu.

Chika Nanase worked the show as a ringside attendant but she also joined Rise Shirai for the show opening announcements.

Iron Man Title Change During Another Game Of Mahjong

November 18, 2025

“IRON MAN HEAVYMETALWEIGHT TITLE MATCH – MAHJONG”, 17/11/2025
Tokyo Mahjong Bell Bird Shinbashi
4 Players

1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Mahjong Match: Shinji Torigoe (48,300 pts) defeated Mahiro Kiryu (c) (16,800 pts), Ken Ohka (30,000 pts) and Danshoku Dieno (4,900 pts) (81:20).
*Shinji Torigoe becomes the 1,783rd champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Ken Ohka’s White Tank Top defeated Shinji Torigoe (c) by Pinfall (2:19 pm).
*Ken Ohka’s White Tank Top becomes the 1,784th champion.
-. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu defeated Ken Ohka’s White Tank Top (c) with a Body Slam (2:21 pm).
*Mahiro Kiryu becomes the 1,785th champion.

One month ago Mahiro Kiryu gave herself the challenge of defending the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title in a game of Mahjong against experienced players. However due to the short notice of the idea, the competition hardly showed up. So yesterday she tried out the idea again and had three opponents ready this time. The three opponents were planned to be Ken Ohka, Danshoku Dieno and Thanomsak Toba. All of them have experience in playing the game. However Toba didn’t show up because he woke up at 3am in the morning to work on his video editing gig, forgot about the game taking place and went to lunch instead. Suddenly Shinji Torigoe appeared. He is a professional mahjong player, the person who taught Kiryu how to play the game and one of the opponents who lost to her the last time. He wanted a second chance at winning the title and was accepted to replace Toba.

Through writing up the reports of this storyline, I have learned from those who are into the hobby that winning two games of mahjong in a row is a difficult thing to achieve. While she aimed to take the lead early, she found out that Ohka and Dieno are no slouches when it comes to playing the game. Kiryu then received a bad hand while Torigoe gradually increased his score until he took the lead and wouldn’t relinquish it. When it was all over, Torigoe was the winner and became the new Iron Man Champion! He then made a joke about how white Ohka’s tank top is which caused Ohka to lose in temper. In a rage, Ohka took off his vest and choked Torigoe unconscious before leaving the room in a fit! The ref Daisuke Kiso then noticed the vest was “pinning” Torigoe’s limp shoulders to the chair and counted to three, ruling that Ken Ohka’s White Tank Top was the new champion!

Kiryu acted quickly and grabbed the vest. With a mighty lift she Body Slammed it onto the floor and went for the cover to become the Iron Man Champion once more. She took a big risk today and almost paid the price. However she is having fun defending the title in games of mahjong and would like to continue doing it. She also noted how strong of a player Ohka is.

DDT And TJPW Related Results From SETUP’s Debut In Japan

November 15, 2025

SETUP/IWA THAILAND “A NEW DAWN”, 14/11/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi
270 Fans

2. SETUP All Asia Women’s Title – 3 Way Bangkok Death Match: Matcha (c) defeated Ram Kaichow and Pom Harajuku when Matcha pinned Harajuku with the Saito Suplex (9:52).
*V3 for Matcha.
4. IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Titles – 3 Way Match: Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami defeated Andruew Tang & Jake De Leon (c) and Kappa Kozo & Kappa Jr. when Toribami pinned Kozo with the Sento Choryu (9:23).
*RGT fails in V1. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami become the 15th IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Champions!
5. Double Main Event I – Ace Vs Ace: HARASHIMA defeated Shivam with the Somato (12:17).

Note: The results and attendance number was given to me by SETUP Thailand Pro Wrestling themselves.

After a long time of planning, SETUP was able to land in Tokyo to hold their very first full show in Japan. Through their working relationships with several wrestlers and promotions (they took over the IWA Japan lineage after Tatsukuni Asano passed away last year, hence IWA Thailand now existing) they put together a card inside TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi and were able to draw in quite a big crowd to it. DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro had some presence on the shows and while I normally would have saved this for the next DDT Around The World article at the end of the month, some timely news coming out of the show means it is best for me to post it now.

DDT was represented in the first of two main events on the show. HARASHIMA was called in to face SETUP’s top wrestler Shivam in an Ace Vs Ace showdown. He was able to keep on his toes by relying on the Somato to cut off Shivam’s momentum. He hit the move out of nowhere after taking a Sit Down Power Bomb and then used it a few more times on route to victory.

TJPW were involved in two matches on the day with high risks leading to mixed results. The good news for TJPW fans is Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami are now champions together! The two of them won the IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Titles in a 3 Way Tag Match. Fighting them were the defending champions Real Global Threat and pestering nuisance that is the Kappa World Order. Given the environment, things got out of control and it ended up costing RGT their belts. Andruew Tang & Jake De Leon were on track to winning the match when a third Kappa at ringside grabbed and pulled them out of the ring. The TJPW team then took down the kWo, using a combo of the Skull Kick from Yamashita followed by the Sento Choryu from Toribami for the surprise title change.

The other 3 Way with a championship on the line didn’t go as well for Pom Harajuku. She was thrown into a Bangkok Death Match against Matcha and Ram Kaichow with the SETUP All Asia Women’s Title on the line. It was a chance for Harajuku to take the belt from Matcha for a second time in their career but this time things went differently. Some of the Bangkok themed moments in the match included the women playing Kra-dòht yan with a rope until Kaichow snipped it in half with scissors, Harajuku wearing muay thai cosplay and everyone hitting each other with metal trays. Harajuku’s muay thai cosplay dragged Thanomsak Toba into the match where he ended up putting a glove on at ringside and knocked out both Matcha and Harajuku with punches. Matcha was able to recover and used the Saito Suplex to pin Harajuku back inside the ring for a successful title defence.

Now that Matcha got revenge on Harajuku and is gathering momentum on her side, she is now looking towards the distant future. TJPW will be coming to Thailand for their own show on 13th December and Matcha will be a part of it. She wants to get a title match on that show but it won’t be her defending her own championship. She is challenging Miu Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title in Bangkok next month!
