Road To Ultimate Party, Almost Complete Wrestle Princess Card

October 24, 2020

DDT “ROAD TO ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”, 25/10/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Under Match: Hiroshi Yamato Vs Hideki Okatani
1. Playfulness Series Act 2: Danshoku Dieno Vs Keigo Nakamura
2. Chris Brookes, Shunma Katsumata & Antonio Honda Vs HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya
3. Shinya Aoki Vs Mad Paulie
4. Junretsu Vs ALL OUT!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Akito
5. Road To Ultimate Party 2020! Special Single Match: CIMA Vs Soma Takao
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi

Eruption are aiming for their 3rd KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles defence. Nautilus are aiming for their 8th KO-D Tag Team Titles defence afterwards.

The “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” main event contract signing between Tetsuya Endo and Daisuke Sasaki will take place during the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS”, 07/11/2020
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. Suzume & Sena Shiori Vs Moka Miyamoto & Mei Suruga
2. Marika Kobashi & Haruna Neko Vs Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu
3. Raku Vs Yuna Manase
4. Miyu Yamashita & X Vs Maki Itoh Vs X
5. Hyper Misao Vs Saki Akai
6. International Princess Title Tournament – Semi Final: Hikari Noa Vs Mirai Maiumi
7. International Princess Title Tournament – Semi Final: Shoko Nakajima Vs Yuki Kamifuku
8. International Princess Title Tournament – Final: X Vs X
9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Mizuki

Looks like the card is mostly complete. Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh have a mystery partner tag match to prepare for. Yamashita had a recent interview where she said she would like to wrestle more joshi legends, naming Meiko Satomura and Aja Kong as examples. Yamashita has her history with Satomura and Itoh has had a go with Kong before so those two are good predictions. But what if the mysteries aren’t women? Itoh teams with Chris Brookes a lot and let’s face it, him showing up to wrestle on a joshi show shouldn’t surprise anyone at this point. In that case then Yamashita can team with Antonio Honda again. It will be just a little over a year since their match with Kenny Omega & Riho so a reunion can be in order. Those are the two directions I could think of based on the past of both women.

Raku is still searching for her first singles win. Can she get it by beating the returning Yuna Manase?

Mei Suruga from Gatoh Move makes her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut. She’s been on DDT shows before but her only TJPW related match was against NEO Biishiki-gun in 2018.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

October 17, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 17/10/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Withheld

1. 3 Way Match: Mirai Maiumi defeated Sena Shiori and Moka Miyamoto when Maiumi pinned Miyamoto with the Lariat (6:35).
2. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Raku Vs Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Haruna Neko when Itoh submitted Neko with the Itoh Deluxe (11:24).
3. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: Hikari Noa defeated Pom Harajuku with the Blizzard Suplex (7:40).
4. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Kamifuku defeated Suzume with the Fame Asser (7:40).
5. Best 2 Out Of 3 Falls: Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (2) defeated Mizuki, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino (1).
5a. Nodoka Tenma pinned Miu Watanabe after the Bakuretsu Bulldog (10:03).
5b. Yuka Sakazaki pinned Mizuki with the Magical Magical Girl Splash (5:14).
5c. Rika Tatsumi pinned Nodoka Tenma with the Missile Hip (5:22).

The champions defeated the challengers in the Best 2 out of 3 Falls preview for “WRESTLE PRINCESS”. From the beginning of the first fall, Yuka Sakazaki and Mizuki got plenty of time to wrestle each other. Mizuki took out Sakazaki & Rika Tatsumi with a Plancha. That gave The Bakuretsu Sisters the opening to beat Miu Watanabe with their finisher. The second fall went back to Sakazaki Vs Mizuki as the focus. Sakazaki got the better of her opponent this time and pinned her upcoming challenger with the Magical Magical Girl Splash. In the final fall Mizuki got rid of Sakazaki and Daydream gave Yuki Aino the Daydream Eternity. Tatsumi then took down Nodoka Tenma with the Missile Hip Attack to win the match for the champions team.

This was the last show before “WRESTLE PRINCESS” so the roster all came out after the main event to give one final push for the show. Sakazaki said wrestling Mizuki makes her feel something she hasn’t felt in a long time. It makes her look forward to 7th November. Everyone on the roster said they will continue to do their best at Tokyo Dome City Hall.

The semi finals for the International Princess Title Tournament are now set. Yuki Kamifuku defeated Suzume and Hikari Noa defeated Pom Harajuku in the remaining 1st Round matches. The semi finals at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” will be Shoko Nakajima Vs Yuki Kamifuku and Hikari Noa Vs Mirai Maiumi after a draw took place later in the day.

Hyper Misao’s team came up with a plan to tape Miyu Yamashita’s feet together. They succeeded in trapping her to wrap the tape around her feet but the referee eventually pulled the tape off to free her.

Mahiro Kiryu had to miss the show for family reasons. Haruna Neko took her place in Match #2 and Match #1 was turned into a 3 Way.

At the start of the show Watanabe said it would be her last show opening as a 20 year old. Her birthday is on 19th October.

5. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: Yuki Kamifuku Vs Suzume

The champions and challengers at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” face off in a trios match. For the time being Mizuki wants to show Yuka Sakazaki that she does not need her help to get strong.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAMS! VOL. 7 ~KEEP IT ON YAMATO SOUL~”, 18/10/2020
Osaka City Higashisei Residents Center

0. Under Match: Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs Yukio Naya & Keigo Nakamura

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”, 03/11/2020
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

0. Under Match: Keigo Nakamura Vs Hideki Okatani
0. Under Match: Hiroshi Yamato & Hoshitango Vs Mizuki Watase & Yukio Naya
1. 4 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Toru Owashi, Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata Vs Mad Paulie, El Lindaman & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Super Sasadango Machine, Makoto Oishi & Antonio Honda

7. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Konosuke Takeshita
8. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki

In an interview with Yahoo Japan posted yesterday, Daisuke Sasaki swore he will retire if he loses to Tetsuya Endo. He will end his wrestling career and go get a job overseas where he can work three days a week with no early morning shifts. He explained in the article that Endo stopped listening to his advice around the time he became the KO-D Openweight Champion. Endo would pretend to listen but turn a blind eye to Sasaki’s advice over fashion and hairstyling. Sasaki believes everyone else in DAMNATION turned on him because Endo bribed them. He also says he will have new black wrestling gear to wear for the title match.

Now is Sasaki being genuine with his gamble? In the past he has threatened to quit wrestling or vacate championships immediately after losing matches. So in normal circumstances he doesn’t take to losing well, especially when he’s been drinking. Could this just be an empty claim or even a self-motivational tactic? Or will this really be Sasaki’s last hurrah if he can’t beat Endo?

GANBARE☆PRO “MAGICIANS RED 2020”, 23/11/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Washi Sakurai Trial Single Match: Washi Sakurai Vs Yasu Urano

4. The Young General Will Avenge The General’s Death! Special Single Match: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ikuto Hidaka
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) Vs Moeka Haruhi

Toyama is on the opposite side of Japan to both Kanagawa and Chiba. What city would get along the best with them? There’s only one way to find out. Fight!

Ueno Gets UNIVERSAL Title Shot, Akito Challenges Dieno, Akai & Manase Coming To Wrestle Princess

October 12, 2020

DDT “DDT TV SHOW! #10”, 17/10/2020
DDT TV SHOW Studio

1. 3 Way Match: Soma Takao Vs Antonio Honda Vs Danshoku Dieno
2. Chris Brookes & Shota Vs HARASHIMA & Yuki Ueno
3. Eruption Vs DISASTER BOX!: Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata
4. Elimination 8-Man Tag Match: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Mizuki Watase & Hideki Okatani Vs Konosuke Takeshita, Akito, Shunma Katsumata & Shinya Aoki
5. Road To Ultimate Party 2020! Special Tag Match: Tetsuya Endo & Mad Paulie Vs Daisuke Sasaki & Hiroshi Yamato

So DAMNATION seems to be split into two right now. There is the #DAMNHEARTS side led by Tetsuya Endo and there is the Daisuke Sasaki side that has Hiroshi Yamato as the only other member. What would Puma King think of this?

Shinya Aoki comes to ALL OUT’s aid in their fight against Junretsu.

BASARA “BASARA 137 ~GLITTER~”, 27/10/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takato Nakano Vs Tetsuo Usui
2. Gouma Ryu Vs Minoru Fujita
3. Fuminori Abe, Yasu Urano & Leo Isaka Vs Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine & Daiki Shimomura
4. Ryota Nakatsu & SAGAT Vs FUMA & Yusuke Kubo
5. Union MAX Title Next Challenger Decision Match: Takumi Tsukamoto Vs Masato Kamino
6. IRON FIST TAG Titles: Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga (c) Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato

Yesterday, SAGAT lost for the first time as a Sparky member when his former ally Yusuke Kubo pinned him. The chance to avenge that loss comes later this month.

BASARA “BASARA 138 ~THE 6TH FOX PRINCE~”, 31/10/2020
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MON☆STAR

1. Ryota Nakatsu Vs Tetsuo Usui
2. SAGAT Vs Takato Nakano
3. 4 Way Match: Fuminori Abe Vs Takumo Tsukamoto Vs Masato Kamino Vs Yasu Urano
4. Elimination 8-Man Tag Match: Isami Kodaka, Ryuichi Sekine, Daiki Shimomura & Minoru Fujita Vs FUMA, Yusuke Kubo, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Daichi Kazato

One less match than usual because all of Sento Minzoku is facing The Iron Family (plus Daichi Kazato). Also Gouma Ryu will be absent from the show so no trial shenanigans either.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”, 03/11/2020
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. MAO Return Battle: MAO Vs Shunma Katsumata
2. Danshoku Dieno Vs Akito
3. DDT Extreme Title – Weapon Rumble: Shinya Aoki (c) Vs Sanshiro Takagi
4. DDT UNIVERSAL Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Yuki Ueno
5. Special Tag Match – HarashiMarafuji Vs CimaSoma: HARASHIMA & Naomichi Marufuji Vs CIMA & Soma Takao
6. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Konosuke Takeshita
7. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs Daisuke Sasaki

Chris Brookes defended the DDT UNIVERSAL Title against one half of Nautilus so now he takes on the other half. Yuki Ueno took offence to Brookes calling Naomi Yoshimura weak after beating him. Ueno then took more offence when Brookes suggested he is weaker than Yoshimura. He wants to shut Brookes up and take his title. Might even end up becoming a triple crown champion along with the two tag titles when all is said and done

The motivation levels for Akito and Danshoku Dieno seem to be going in opposite directions this year. Akito’s has been rising to the point where he became a Vice President of CyberFight. Dieno is still able to come up with ideas but has he passed his creative peak? A match between the two will provide a barometer for where both will stand in DDT.

The participants for the 2021 D-Ou Grand Prix will be revealed on this show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS”, 07/11/2020
Tokyo Dome City Hall

1. International Princess Title Tournament – Semi Final: X Vs X
2. International Princess Title Tournament – Semi Final: X Vs X
3. Hyper Misao Vs Saki Akai
4. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino
5. International Princess Title Tournament – Final: X Vs X
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) Vs Mizuki

The first two semi-finalists in the International Princess Title tournament are Shoko Nakajima and Mirai Maiumi.

Saki Akai only wrestles in Tokyo Joshi Pro once or twice a year because DDT is her priority. For her 2020 appearance she will face Hyper Misao in a first time singles meeting. They were on opposite sides of a tag match once in 2015 but I think that may have been retconned into Akai getting replaced by Sakisama for some reason. Oh and there was also the storyline with that Saki Akamiya girl. Whatever happened to her? But enough about that.

Yuna Manase will be on the show. This will be her first appearance in Tokyo Joshi since leaving the promotion back in July. Look at her getting to wrestle everywhere!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~” Results

October 10, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 10/10/2020
Kitazawa Town Hall
??? Fans – Withheld

1. Nodoka Tenma defeated Moka Miyamoto with the WAR Special (6:50).
2. 3 Way Match: Hikari Noa defeated Hyper Misao and Sena Shiori when Noa pinned Shiori with the Rotating Leg Lock Hold (6:05).
3. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: Mirai Maiumi defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Miramare (8:42).
4. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: Shoko Nakajima defeated Raku with the Northern Lights Suplex (10:25).
5. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku when Watanabe pinned Aino after the Daydream Eternity (14:08).
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Suzume defeated Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Haruna Neko when Sakazaki submitted Neko with an Omoplatta (10:48).

There were hurt feelings between Yuka Sakazaki and Mizuki at the end of the show. During the main event, Sakazaki ran in to save Mizuki from a charging Miyu Yamashita. This made Mizuki upset and she asked Sakazaki why she helped her? Mizuki doesn’t want to rely on Sakazaki forever because she can handle these things by herself. She still has fun teaming with Sakazaki but the more it happens the more she sees how strong Sakazaki really is. Mizuki left the ring alone with Sakazaki and Suzume both looking confused by her behavior.

Daydream used their Canadian Backbreaker/Neckbreaker double team move to beat Yuki Aino. The Princess Tag Team Champions are already feeling in great shape after beating one of The Bakuretsu Sisters. They won’t be scared going up against both of them.

The first two matches in the International Princess Title tournament sees Shoko Nakajima and Mirai Maiumi going through to the semi finals. Nakajima overcame some hide and seek tactics from Raku. Maiumi defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Chickenwing Armlock. She is now calling that move the Miramare.

Hyper Misao interviewed both of her opponents in the 3 Way Match to find out what they thought of each other. When one wasn’t being interviewed they listened to music on a headset so they wouldn’t hear what was said about her. Both Hikari Noa and Sena Shiori had nothing but positive things to say about each other. However, Misao then made them do a quiz about each other. Noa didn’t know what Shiori’s favourite food was. Misao also lied to Shiori, telling her Noa said she could beat her in 5 seconds. The match went 2 Vs 1 until Misao betrayed Shiori with a School Boy nearfall. In the end Noa got the win by pinning Shiori.

Saki Akai Vs Hyper Misao was announced for “WRESTLE PRINCESS” on 7th November. Also Yuna Manase will be on the show for her first appearance in Tokyo Joshi Pro since joining Ganbare☆Pro.

The Magical Sugar Rabbits will release a photobook together at “WRESTLE PRINCESS”.

Yuki Kamifuku’s return date from a broken finger is this show so the only guarantee from the draw was her match taking place here.

2. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: X Vs X

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “FALL TOUR ’20 ~WOMM (WRESTLING OF MY MIND)~”, 17/10/2020
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: X Vs X
2. International Princess Title Tournament – Round 1: X Vs X

Today Thunder Rosa relinquished the International Princess Title on a video sent to Tokyo Joshi Pro. Due to the Coronavirus making overseas travel very difficult, Rosa’s scheduled title defences in March and April were both cancelled. With no opportunity to defend the title, Rosa and agreed with management to send the belt back to Japan. Rosa promised she will return to TJPW when it is safe to do so with the intention of winning back the championship. TJPW confirmed that Rosa getting a title match upon her return is of the highest priority. Until then, a new champion will be crowned in an 8-Woman tournament that will end at “WRESTLE PRINCESS” this November.

In order to crown a new champion, TJPW has to renege on the original concept for the title. The title was supposed to draw in challengers from around the world while also revitalizing Tokyo Joshi’s singles division in Japan (Princess Of Princess Title matches are few and far between so it offers something else for the roster to fight over). But since it is very difficult to bring in foreign wrestlers right now, only Japanese wrestlers are able to compete in the tournament. Entrants will be announced as soon as they are picked, taking into consideration the potential card for “WRESTLE PRINCESS”. If somebody on the roster already has a match at the Tokyo Dome City Hall then they won’t be in the tournament.

DDT “ROAD TO ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”, 25/10/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

0. Under Match: Hiroshi Yamato Vs Hideki Okatani
1. Chris Brookes, Shunma Katsumata & Antonio Honda Vs HARASHIMA, Toru Owashi & Yukio Naya
2. Shinya Aoki Vs Mad Paulie
3. Playfulness Series Act 2: Danshoku Dieno Vs Keigo Nakamura
4. Junretsu Vs ALL OUT!: Jun Akiyama & Makoto Oishi Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Akito
5. Road To Ultimate Party 2020! Special Single Match: CIMA Vs Soma Takao
6 or 7. KO-D Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno & Naomi Yoshimura (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi
6 or 7. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Kazusada Higuchi, Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai (c) Vs Yuki Ueno, Naomi Yoshimura & Kazuki Hirata

Last week CIMA got injured in a bicycle accident, leaving him with injuries to his head, neck and hands. However I guess CIMA will recover in time for his match at the end of the month because DDT hasn’t cancelled it yet. Soma Takao looks up to CIMA anyway. He probably won’t take advantage of this in a heinous way. Backstabbing Daisuke Sasaki, sure but not CIMA.

The Junretsu Vs ALL OUT tag is getting a runback. Konosuke Takeshita & Akito are both looking for ways to beat Jun Akiyama. You can’t leave Makoto Oishi out in the cold for this either.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “WRESTLE PRINCESS”, 07/11/2020

4. International Princess Title Tournament – Final: X Vs X

The end of the International Princess Title tournament will feature the semi finals and the final on the same night.

GANBARE☆PRO “MAGICIANS RED 2020”, 23/11/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. The Young General Will Avenge The General’s Death! Special Single Match: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ikuto Hidaka
2. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) Vs Moeka Haruhi

Yesterday, Moeka Haruhi won a trios match against a team of wrestlers connected to each other by the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title. This victory inspired Haruhi to challenge Asuka for the title itself.

Ikuto Hidaka was impressed enough with his visit to Ganbare☆Pro yesterday that he wants to continue wrestling here. That’s good because Kouki Iwasaki told everyone he wants to beat him up. The match name makes it sound like Iwasaki is doing this to avenge Ken Ohka’s defeat to Hidaka but I’m not sure if Iwasaki cares enough about that to make it his main motivation.

“NEW YEAR’S EVE WRESTLING 2019 ~TOSHIWASHURE! SHUFFLE TAG TOURNAMENT”, 31/12/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Round 1: BJW X & DDT X Vs BJW X & DDT X
2. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Round 1: BJW X & DDT X Vs BJW X & DDT X
3. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Round 1: BJW X & DDT X Vs BJW X & DDT X
4. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Round 1: BJW X & DDT X Vs BJW X & DDT X
5. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Semi Final: X & X Vs X & X
6. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Semi Final: X & X Vs X & X
7. Shuffle Tag Tournament – Final: X & X Vs X & X

The annual New Year’s Year tag team tournament held by Big Japan and DDT will go ahead this year but on a smaller scale. In order to prevent exposing fans to the Coronavirus, the event will start earlier in the evening and will only last for around 2 and a half hours. The tournament will be shortened down to 8 teams instead of the usual 16. Sadly that means there won’t be any wrestling going on inside Korakuen Hall when the clock strikes midnight to bring in 2021.
