TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKODAI STATION EVENT WRESTLING PART 2”, 18/06/2016
Kanagawa Yokodai Station
??? Fans

1. Yuka Sakazaki defeated Hyper Misao with the Magical Girl Splash (7:58).

Tokyo Joshi Pro with a little help from BASARA held two outdoor shows at Yokodai Station. There was also a wrestling exercise class held for children before both shows.

Since the show was in Kanagawa, Marika Kobashi got to headline both shows as the hometown girl. She said she became interested in wrestling when she saw a Big Japan show in a nearby shopping district. Today was a dream come true for her. Although she lost the main event in Part 1, she redeemed herself by getting a submission victory in Part 2.

The winner of every match received a box of goods from shops in the area. Nothing fancy, just stuff like boxes of bottled water, soda drinks or fruits and vegetables. Yusuke Kubo and Daichi Kazato had to share their prize of cola cans when they fought to a draw.

Nonoko was originally supposed to wrestle KANNA in Part 2 but was too ill to compete. Nodoka Onee-san took her place.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title tour of America moved to Des Moines, Iowa last night where Joey Ryan defended the title against Colt Cabana and Chuck Taylor for F1RST Wrestling. Chuck Taylor won the match to become the new champion but then Scott Hall showed up! Taylor got knocked out then Hall beat Ryan in a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine who should pin Taylor. 2016 wrestling is weird.

Tomodachi-gun is pretty much done after this week’s defeat against Ganbare☆Wrestling.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOKOHAMA 1:00 SET”, 28/05/2016
Yokohama Radiant Hall
210 Fans – No Vacancy

1. KANNA defeated Azusa Takigawa with the 50$ent (7:22).
2. Nonoko defeated Marika Kobashi with the Dragon Sleepai (6:26).
3. Shoko Nakajima defeated Nodoka-oneesan with the Northern Lights Suplex (8:06).

5. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Yuka Sakazaki with a Cradle (15:19).
*V2 for Miyu Yamashita.

In her second TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title defence Miyu Yamashita went up against Yuka Sakazaki. The challenger has been riding a wave of momentum heading into the match thanks to her Osaekomi Backslide. This time Yamashita had the move scouted and countered it with a Buzzsaw Kick. With that risk removed Yamashita was able to beat Sakazaki. Yamashita says she wants to fight more strong challengers so she can grow as the champion.

Hyper Misao described the 3 Way Match as a Hero Introductory Test for both Akane Miura and Yuu. She was hoping to find an “ally of justice” and declined to take part because she should not lay her super powered hands on members of the general public. It turned out to be a trick and she tried to get involved only to get knocked aside by her opponents.

The day before this show took place Erin announced she was resigning from Tokyo Joshi Pro. She has been regularly kept out of action with a foot injury. An early return from the first injury only made things worse for her. Another setback happened recently which was when she decided to quit. Erin feels heartbroken over the decision but realises that she is unable to continue wrestling. She thanked the fans for supporting her in the last two years and apologised that it had to end this way.

Block B Standings

-. Daichi Kazato (4)
-. Takumi Tsukamoto (4)
4. Hiroshi Fukuda (2)
-. Ryu Gouma (0)

In the latest battle between DDT’s eating establishments the Drop Kick Bar was victorious over Ebisuko Tavern. Ryuichi Sekine was the dominant member of the Drop Kick team, playing a part in eliminating 3 of the 4 opponents. Gota Ihashi had Kazusada Higuchi to rely on until Sekine Dropkicked him to the floor for an elimination. Ihashi finally got rid of Sekine when he ducked a Clothesline from Akito that hit Sekine instead. Ihashi tried to do what he could against Akito including a missed Moonsault but kept getting trapped in submission holds until he finally gave up to a Figure Four Leg Lock. After the match most of the wrestlers shook hands. The only exception was Kota Umeda towards Isami Kodaka.

Ryota Nakatsu is so far undefeated in the Heaven Summit tournament, winning his first two matches. SAGAT meanwhile is winless with one match left. He cannot understand why he is going through a losing streak.

Ryu Gouma lost the last of his Heaven Summit matches, ending his run with zero points. This time he lost the match by pinfall instead of countout. Because of this Gouma is now throwing his full support behind Hiroshi Fukuda to win the tournament.

The next Tavern Wrestling event will take place in July. There will also be three shows taking place on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd August.

Rika Tatsumi fractured a fibula in her left foot and was unable to wrestle. Akane Miura took her place in the main event. Miura was able to hold Miyu Yamashita away from the ring while Yuka Sakazaki pinned Nodoka-oneesan with the Magical Girl Splash. Sakazaki is very happy with her recent winning streak. She said she had fun during this match but will have even more fun when she wins the TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title from Yamashita on 28th May.

Hyper Misao is now entering a new chapter of her life. With Snake World taken care of and her team with Saki Akamiya having ended, Misao is back to protecting Tokyo Joshi Pro, Japan, the world and even the universe on her own. Her first job was to fight Nonoko or as she called her, Tits Monster. Nonoko overpowered Misao and was on her way to an easy victory until she missed a Corner Splash Attack. Misao agve her a School Boy and even placed her feet on the middle rope for leverage to get the upset victory.

Word has come out that two of the trainees who were introduced at the January Korakuen Hall show have since quit the promotion. Yuki quit to focus on her education and Alice was not in a good enough physical state to continue training. The remaining trainees are Hinako and Maho. Hinako was seen working out with Shoko Nakajima before the show. I don’t know what Maho’s status is.

Tokyo Joshi will be part of the Beer Garden series of shows in Shinjuku FACE this August.

1. Nodoka-oneesan defeated Azusa Takigawa with a Back Flip (5:46).
2. Hyper Masao defeated Marika Kobashi with a Rope Assisted School Boy (8:20).
3. Yuu defeated Nonoko with the Cross Armbreaker (5:01).
4. Akane Miura defeated Rika Tatsumi with the Lariat (7:22).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Miyu Yamashita & KANNA when Sakazaki pinned Yamashita with the Osaekomi Backslide (11:15).

The Osaekomi Backslide is quickly becoming an unbeatable finishing move for Yuka Sakazaki. She’s now pinned the Princess Champion with it! Sakazako countered Miyu Yamashita’s German Suplex into a Samson Clutch and then turned that into the Backslide for the win. Sakazaki challenged Yamashita to a title match. Yamashita agreed and the match is set for the next Yokohama show on 28th May.

Yuu’s unbeaten streak has taken it’s biggest victory yet when the rookie submitted Nonoko. Yuu countered the Boinemaker into a Cross Armbreaker for the victory. With a win over a Tokyo Princess Cup winner in the bag Yuu is hoping to fight more of the senior Tokyo Joshi wrestlers.

Before the opening match began Nodoka-oneesan wanted to dance to the song “Ping-Pong Pan Taisou”. Azusa Takigawa said dancing is exhausting so she wouldn’t allow it. She told Nodoka her dancing was why she hadn’t won a match yet. Nodoka proved her wrong and earned her first ever victory when she pinned Takigawa with the Back Flip.
