BASARA “TRANS-AM ★ HIROSHI GOLDEN 15TH ANNIVERSARY”, 15/05/2026 Shin-Kiba 1st RING
1. Hiroshi Reincarnation Rumble: Ryota Nakatsu Vs FUMA, Vs SAGAT Vs Gouma Ryu Vs Yasu Urano
2. Kazuki Hirata Vs Daichi Kazato
3. Minoru Fujita & Antonio Honda Vs Isami Kodaka & Takumi Tsukamoto
4. MEN’S Teioh, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga Vs Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Takeru Inoue
5. Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Ayumu Honda
The final match added to Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi’s 15th Anniversary show is a Reincarnation Rumble. It sounds like a Rumble match he’s booked before where all of the wrestlers enter the match as a different costume or gimmick from his past.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SHE KNOWS HER WAY ~SHINO SUZUKI HOMECOMING SHOW~”, 16/05/2026 Shizuoka Shimizu Marine Building
1. HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki Vs Haru Kazashiro & Toga
For Shino Suzuki’s homecoming show the Bumping gRitters will be fighting in the main event! It is a clash of the 2023 Class when Suzuki & HIMAWARI take on Haru Kazashiro & Toga.
Both Shoko Nakajima and Yuki Kamifuku will not be at the show. They are instead booked for Aja Kong’s 40th Anniversary show taking place in Okinawa. Nakajima is in the opener while Kamifuku will be on the team opposing Kong in the main event!
BASARA “BASARA 307 ~KOO~”, 29/05/2026 Shinjuku FACE
1. FUMA Vs Seiya Morohashi
2. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino (c) Vs Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano
3. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs SAGAT
SAGAT has become the first wrestler in BASARA to get a three count pin on Shuji Ishikawa. He’s now aiming to do it again to become the new Union MAX Champion.
Just when Aijin Tag felt like they have cleaned out BASARA’s tag division, Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano have appeared and even stolen one of the Iron Fist Tag Team Title belts! It’s all so Fujita can promote his Fujita Pro Wrestling School project and he’s even thinking about renaming the tag titles under that brand if he and Urano properly win them.
What was supposed to be a Union Pro tribute tag team has fallen apart after FUMA and Seiya Morohashi failed to win the Iron Fist Tag Titles. They both blame each other for the loss so will settle their differences in the ring.
I haven’t gotten around to looking into what happened on Tokyo Joshi Pro’s two European shows outside of the basic results. All I know is Miyu Yamashita has more plans coming up to wrestle across the world this year. While she doesn’t have to wait long until she packs her suitcase again, Daisuke Sasaki is emptying his after finishing up his month long journey across North America. He found a few more places in America to wrestle in before he made the trip back home.
It’s a little hard to tell if the summer is going to get busier for overseas bookings. Is there much of an appetite for international wrestling when the World Cup is going to be on? CMLL is counting on it and Konosuke Takeshita has at least one date with them in June. I’m going to curse out the company if they use their AI poster art to make him look like a Captain Tsubasa drawing.
LUCHA WRESTLING PURORESU “LUCHA LIBRE MEXICANA”, 19/04/2026 Xander Sports Arena, Los Angeles, California, USA

Results
LUCHA WRESTLING PURORESU “LUCHA LIBRE MEXICANA”, 19/04/2026 Xander Sports Arena, Los Angeles, California, USA
1. Drago, Genio del Aire & Torito Negro defeated Doble Cara, Daisuke Sasaki & Ultimo Maldito when Drago pinned Sasaki with the Tail Of The Dragon (?:??).
Sasaki is one of the more likely DDT wrestlers to go in search of lucha libre when he travels over to the Americas. He didn’t go visit Mexico this time around but he got down there close enough by getting a lucha booking in LA. While there he got to lock horns with Drago as part of a trios match. Sasaki and his rudo partners beat down the other team and held Torito Negro in the Kaientai pose. Genio del Aire tried to make a big counter attack by doing a jumping Hurricanrana to Ultimo Maldito from the human tower only to crash on top of his own head and neck in a disasterous looking botch. Drago inspired the tecnico team’s comeback and both of his partners Moonsaulted out of the ring onto Doble Cara & Maldito. That left Sasaki to duke it out with Drago but he was whipped around into the Tail Of The Dragon llave pin, losing the match to the veteran luchador.
EVE/TOKYO JOSHI PRO “EVE X TJPW”, 25/04/2026 Big Penny Social, London, England ??? Fans

LABOR OF LOVE “THE EXHIBITION”, 25/04/2026 Icebox Project Space, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
1. Anything Goes: Big Callux defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Black Hole Slam (?:??).
The final stopping point for Sasaki was at The City Of Brotherly Love. Too bad Sasaki hates love because all it ever did was hurt him. The Philly indie scene isn’t what it used to be and hasn’t been for a very long time. But Labor Of Love has popped up to try and find its place in a world that has long since moved on from the days when the corner of Swanson and Ritner St was considered the centrepoint of the American indies. Sasaki went to Philadelphia for a fight with Big Callux where before the match the stipulation was revealed to be Anything Goes. Callux brought along a bag of gifts for Sasaki that included a Gritty toy. Sasaki ripped it in half and threw the remains into the crowd! Callux then gave Sasaki a bouquet of roses but Sasaki just attacked him with them. More fighting broke out with a chair, a chain and also a hockey stick being used as weapons. Sasaki got into the hockey vibes by putting on a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey to piss off the Philly fans even more. He tried to put Callux in the Crossface Lock with the chain to assist him but Callux powered out of it. Sasaki then got the upper hand by unmasking Callux as a distraction to hit him over the head with the chair and then Pedigree him onto it. Callux kicked out though and threw Sasaki from the top rope onto the chair laid out in the middle of the ring. He then hit the Black Hole Slam to win the match, much like how the Philadelphia Flyers went on to win the series against the Penguins in the NHL playoffs a couple of days later.

Upcoming Appearances
ROH “SUPERCARD OF HONOR”, 15/05/2026 Wicomico Youth And Civic Center, Salisbury, Maryland, USA
1. ROH Women’s World Title – Survival Of The Fittest Match: Athena (c) Vs Yuka Sakazaki Vs Trish Adora Vs Billie Starkz Vs Persephone Vs Maya World
All of the competitors have been confirmed and it’s official. Yuka Sakazaki is among the six wrestlers entering Ring Of Honor’s annual Survival Of The Fittest elimination match. Athena’s reign as ROH Women’s World Champion has reached preposterous levels of record breaking in terms of length. Seriously is this the longest running championship reign with so few highlights to exist in modern times?
BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “MNL”, 23/05/2026 Sari Sari Makati, Makati, Philippines
1. Hotdog De San Jose & Super P Vs Zack Sabre Jr. & Chris Brookes
The first match announced for the show has Chris Brookes teaming up with Zack Sabre Jr. again, bringing SchadenTekkers over to the Philippines. Super P has found a sort of familiar looking super friend in Hotdog De San Jose which means together they are Team SuperHotdog!
GCW/BZW “NOW OR NEVER”, 23/05/2026 Espace Isabelle de Hainaut, Rue de Saint-Quentin, Bapaume, France
1. BZW Tag Team Titles – 3 Way Tag Match: MAO & Yoshihiko (c) Vs MBM & Ultima Sombra Vs Jimmy Lloyd & Jeffrey John
It’s the biggest risk of danger yet for MAO & Yoshihiko in their travels around Europe. They are stuck in the middle of the BZW Vs GCW battle coming up in France and both sides want to take the BZW Tag Team Titles away from them. In the 3 Way Match BZW are sending in Rivality. They are familiar faces to the champions because MBM & Ultima Sombra did a tour in Japan with DDT last year. GCW will be represented by Jimmy Lloyd & Jeffrey John. Gotta be honest they’re not really sending their best into the fight here. Like they have Nick Gage & Vipress teaming up in one of the other matches. That team sounds like a threat!
DXCN “DAKILA II”, 24/05/2026 Brawl Pit Bulusan, Quezon City, Philippines
1. 4 Way Match: Jonathan Johnson Vs Robin Sane Vs Shaheen Vs Munetatsu Nakamura
2. Chris Brookes Vs X
It’s likely that Munetatsu Nakamura will be part of the Baka Gaijin in Manila show as well but for now he’s just been announced for the Dexcon show happening the next day. Even if this turns out to be his only match of the weekend it is still his first overseas expedition which is exciting enough by itself.
AEW “DOUBLE OR NOTHING”, 24/05/2026 Louis Armstrong Stadium, New York City, New York, USA
1. AEW International Title: Kazuchika Okada (c) Vs Konosuke Takeshita
Here we go, here we go, here we go! Shenanigans spoiled the previous singles match Takeshita had with Kazuchika Okada and let’s face it, shenanigans will likely happen again. But stakes are still high and the feud is finally heading towards its breaking point. Surely this has to be the blowoff with one of them getting kicked out of The Don Callis Family at the end, right?
EVE “EVE 150: HISTORY MAKERS RULE BREAKERS!”, 05/06/2026 Big Penny Social, London, England
1. EVE International Title: Kris Statlander (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita
The tournament that Yamashita won at the EVE x TJPW show made her the No. 1 Contender for the EVE International Title. She held their main championship during her big push there back in 2023. Is history going to repeat itself when she fights Kris Statlander from AEW for EVE’s other singles title?
WXW “DRIVE OF CHAMPIONS 2026”, 06/06/2026 Turbinenhalle 1, Oberhausen, Germany
1. Ahura & Jun Akiyama Vs 1 Called Manders & Thomas Shire
Is Ahura still going to be in wXw by the time this match happens? He was at the WWE European tryout this past week.
CMLL “FANTASTICA MANIA 2026”, 19/06/2026 Arena Mexico, Mexico City, Distrito Federal, Mexico
1. Konosuke Takeshita Vs X
Takeshita heads back to Mexico this summer when CMLL holds their version of the “FANTASTICA MANIA” series with New Japan.

5. Indian Poker Match: Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima and Yuki Aino.
5a. Shoko Nakajima was Disqualified for doing the Dragon Ring In.
5b. Yuki Aino was Disqualified for doing the Shoulder Tackle.
5c. Miyu Yamashita was Disqualified for doing the Skull Kick.
6. Costume Change Match: Yuki Arai, Mizuki, Yuki Kamifuku & Raku defeated Suzume, Pom Harajuku, HIMAWARI & Uta Takami when Arai submitted Takami with the Scorpion Death Lock (17:30).
For the tenth time in the company’s history, Tokyo Joshi Pro held a fan club only show opened to members of Wrestle Universe. Matches on these kind of shows go in weird directions and often have uncommon stipulations added to them. The big match to happen on these shows is the Costume Change match where every wrestler involved shows up in another wrestler’s costume. This mix and match included the nicknames being altered for the ocassion. We got Yuki Arai dressed as HIMAWARI (“Genius Cheeky Chap”), Mizuki dressed as Suzume (“Vivid Sugar Custard”), Yuki Kamifuku dressed as Raku (“Up Up Girls (Tall)”), Raku dressed as Yuki Aino (“Sleeping Venus”), Suzume dressed as Mahiro Kiryu (“Passion Blue Mustard”), Pom Harajuku dressed as Toga (“Colorful Snow Crystal”), HIMAWARI dressed as Mifu Ashida (“Rampaging Flower Girl”) and Uta Takami dressed as Mizuki (“Popping Ice Rabbit”). Everyone tried to copy the wrestler they were dressed as but the match ended with Arai using her own moveset to beat Takami. After the match Arai said she has memorized the faces of every Wrestle Universe subscriber in attendance and she wants them to stay members for life.
The Indian Poker match began with every contestant being handed a random card. They were allowed a brief moment to trade the cards with each other without looking and then show everyone the cards without looking at their own. The rule was if a wrestler performed the action that was written on their card, they would be Disqualified. Shoko Nakajima was quickly eliminated when she did the Dragon Ring In, which her card banned her from doing. With every elimination, the remaining wrestlers were given more cards with banned actions on them. Yuki Aino was next to go when she did a Double Shoulder Tackle on the other opponents, which she wasn’t allowed to do. With Miyu Yamashita and Hyper Misao as the last two left, they agonized over trying to figure out which of their moves were banned. Yamashita nailed Misao with the Skull Kick but that turned out to be illegal so Misao won despite getting almost knocked out.
One Count pinfalls were used for the Academic & Athletic Match. When a pin happened, the wrestler was then asked an educational question. The first team to get two questions correct would win the match. Unfortunately the four participants are not the most school smart of wrestlers on the TJPW roster so a lot of questions were answered incorrectly. Miu Watanabe was finally able to get one right by calling Hokkaido the largest prefecture in Japan while Haru Kazashiro evened the score by identifying that red blood cells are what carries oxygen throughout the body. Arisu Endo got several chances at answering questions but kept getting them wrong. Chika Nanase got the winning point when she said photosyntesis is the name of the process by which plants use light to produce nutrients.
A bunch of TJPW wrestlers turned into “Superstars” for one day by impersonating different WWE gimmicks during a Rumble match. Kira Summer entered first as Rhea Ripley and started the match off against Shino Suzuki as John Cena. The next entrant was Mahiro Kiryu fully committed to dressing up like The Rock, padded muscle suit and all. The lights in the room then went out as Mifu Ashida made her entrance as The Undertaker (with Fumirin joining her impersonating Paul Bearer). The last entrant was Wakana Uehara going full on Shinsuke Nakamura. Eliminations then happened one after the other and the match ended with Kiryu putting Suzuki in a Sleeper Hold. Suzuki gave a big smile just like Cena did before tapping out.
Toga had to fight off two admirers in a 3 Way Match. Rika Tatsumi and Ren Konatsu wanted to fight over who liked Toga more with Tatsumi claiming she is Toga’s godmother while Konatsu tried to bribe her with bread. Then when they fought each other they kept each asking Toga to come rescue them. Tatsumi soon got fed up and asked Toga who would she choose. When Toga didn’t answer, she was pushed into Fumirin who all of a sudden started to fall for her too. Toga ran out of the ring and was chased by Tatsumi and Konatsu while Fumirin started the 20 count. Tatsumi and Konatsu spent too much time arguing with each other outside, allowing Toga to get into the ring before 20 and win the match by Double Countout. Toga then patted Fumirin on the head after the match.
The opening bout between Sakura Hattori and Shion Kanzaki was a normal match with nothing unusual happening at all. Hattori continues to use her Shoulder Lock submission to rack up wins.
The silliness of the show started at the very beginning when Fumirin gave some pre-show announcements while talking in a Kansai dialect. A surprise musical performance then happened with Rise Shirai singing the Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger theme song for everybody.

Match #5 has become a little more interesting because it will be the first time Utami Hayashishita will wrestle since she announced she is going to leave Marigold next month. YuuRI doesn’t want that to get in the way of her own journey to carry the flag for Ganbare☆Joshi.

The international crew return to Japan all facing each other in a wrestling version of Blind Man’s Bluff. A Rumble match you would normally see on a “Premium Live Event” somewhere else has somehow ended up here. There will be a few other surprises in store. For example, Fumirin will be reading the pre-show announcements to everyone while speaking in a Kansai accent. There is also a secret musical segment scheduled for somewhere on the show.

A big change has already happened to the King Of DDT tournament with Kaisei Takechi having to pull out of the tournament. He is out of action with acute appendicitis so Kazuki Hirata is replacing him as Danshoku Dieno’s new Round 1 opponent. Hirata doesn’t think he can pull off a miracle this time but promises to try his best for everyone’s sake.
The match order has not been decided yet outside of the non-tournament bouts taking place on the pre-show.

SUPER JAPAN “A PRO WRESTLING SHOW WITHOUT A NAME”, 27/05/2026 Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
1. Special Single Match: Pero Pero Oyakata Vs Da Pump Matsumoto
2. Special Tag Match: Yuji Nagata & CIMA Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Poison Sawada JULIE
The future of Super Japan is safe after its fans judged in favour of these shows continuing for the time being. Sanshiro Takagi is continuing to think up of alternate universe ideas regarding the early years of DDT. The latest is he now wants to team up with Poison Sawada JULIE after they’ve been enemies for years, decades even. Yuji Nagata is sticking around as the Super Japan ace and is even donating an event booking he had in his pocket to let this show take place in the same venue. He will team up with CIMA, forming “WCW’s Strongest Tag Team” for the occasion. Now that sounds like a WCW… Deep… Cut… in the making.
The newest match announced is straight out of N●tflix. It is the “Re●l American” Pero Pero Oyakata against “The Queen Of V●llains” Da Pump Matsumoto!
DDT/NJPW “ONE-ON-ONE CONFRONTATION PART 2 ~SASADANGO-GUN VS YANO-GUN 5-ON-5 ELIMINATION TAG BATTLE~”, 08/06/2025 Tokyo Korakuen Hall

2. Sasadango-gun Vs Yano-gun: X Vs X

5. Sasadango-gun Vs Yano-gun: X Vs X
Sasadango-gun: Super Sasadango Machine, MAO
Yano-gun: Toru Yano, El Desperado
Both Super Sasadango Machine and Toru Yano have chosen the first members of their teams. Sasadango has picked MAO from DDT while Yano is taking El Desperado from New Japan. Sasadango believes he has the advantage because he does not belong to any specific group in DDT. He’s under the impression that Yano will only choose wrestlers from New Japan’s Hontai unit.

Emersyn Jane was unable to make the show. Aliss Ink took her place in Match #4.
Writing up this year’s WrestleMania Week report worked out sort of quicker than I expected in regards to the amount of matches to cover, yet some of them were very difficult to track down because of the lack of streaming options available to some of the indies this time around. Tokyo Joshi Pro felt their first burn from their overseas expansion with a low attendance number at Slam Fest. How much that will effect their USA plans for the rest of the year remain to be seen. The reduction of international fans travelling over to Las Vegas again could really be felt on some shows throughout the week. I’d be willing to argue that had just as much effect on the WrestleMania attendance itself rather than just the expensive ticket prices.
The only DDT presence of note in Vegas was Daisuke Sasaki wrestling a few matches. He had a particularly violent match on the New Japan/GCW joint show (that feels weird to type out) that must have left him with a few bruises afterwards. A few TJPW wrestlers spread out across the shows too but the one that sounded noteworthy hasn’t shown up online yet so I’m a little stuck trying to write about it. The week being what it is means some chance meetings happened at some shows, like Miu Watanabe finally meeting her fellow Giant Swing user Claudio Castagnoli.
One of the reasons this report is an incomplete one is thanks to our friend Mizuki Watase. He made the trip over to Las Vegas again after going through a love-hate affair with the city in previous visits for wrestling. He’s written blogs and articles of his past trips where he lost a lot of money but became smitten with the Venetian in particular, naming one of his finishing moves after the casino. This time his trip started off pretty badly with some hotel mishap but his gambling turned into a success this time and for once he left the casino with more money than he had before. Then he spent all the money on booze and got some tattoos while he was drunk. He also wrestled a few matches during the week but I have had no luck trying to find out what they are. That was until I saw a video he recorded of his entrance and it was at the one place I never thought of looking: MicroMania. He was advertised for their week long tour at The Nerd in Fremont Street and he ended up wrestling several matches there. All I could find out is he wanted to do a Spirit Of Ganbare World Title defence for one of his bookings but it was changed to a non-title tag match on short notice (excuse the pun).

PODER~! “PODERMANIA~!”, 15/04/2026 Horseshoe, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
1. International Tag Team Match: Toga & Jazzy Yang defeated Amira & Lil Marz when Toga pinned Marz with the Absolute Zero (8:47).
The first piece of TJPW action to find that week was when Toga went to “PODERMANIA~!”. The eighth annual women’s wrestling show put together by the man known to most as “Ed In San Antonio” saw Toga teaming up with Jazzy Yang in a winning effort against Amira & Lil Marz. Toga even scored the pinfall in a match that can be best described as not the worst thing to have happened on the show.
PANDEMONIUM PRO “WHATEVER, FOREVER”, 15/04/2026 Bizarre Bar, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
1. Jiah Jewell defeated Daisuke Sasaki with the Gator Roll (?:??).
Sasaki’s schedule got off to an aggressive start when he went brawling with Jiah Jewell throughout the venue that Pandemonium Pro held their show in. Sasaki had the upper hand throughout a lot of the match because Jewell kept on telegraphing his finisher, the Gator Roll so Sasaki could block it. However things went wrong for Sasaki and he tried going after the ref for it, allowing Jewell to Gator Roll Sasaki for the three count and score the upset win.

“DEATH VEGAS INVITACIONAL”, 16/04/2026 Horseshoe, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
1. The Rigged Roulette – House Rules Hardcore Match: Joey Janela & Gringo Loco defeated Gedo & Daisuke Sasaki when Janela pinned Gedo with the Diving Foot Stomp onto a Door (18:44).
Throughout the week Sasaki has been hanging out with an incognito El Desperado but he also got to spend some time with Gedo, particularly for a violent Hardcore Match that took place on Despy’s own show. Gedo took it extreme by bringing out forks to stab Joey Janela & Gringo Loco with. The opposition fought back by putting Sasaki and Gedo through doors along with some wicked chair shots. Loco used a one man Spanish Fly to smash Sasaki through one door only for Sasaki to recover and spin him into La Mistica Crossface Lock with Gedo giving the assist with a fork attack. Janela made the save though and ended up Double Stomping Gedo into oblivion among the wreckage for the three count. Sasaki’s post-match comments were all complaints about how violent the match was. If his upcoming matches are going to continue being like this then he won’t go back to Japan and will cancel his Best Of The Super Jr. appearance instead.
GCW “JOSH BARNETT’S BLOODSPORT XV”, 17/04/2026 Horseshoe, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
1. Miyu Yamashita defeated Janai Kai by Knockout with the Skull Kick (5:29).
Finally a Bloodsport fight goes Miyu Yamashita’s way and right when Josh Barnett decides to end the whole thing. Janai Kai tried to submit her with the Demon Clutch but Yamashita grabbed her in a Cravate and gave her knee strikes to the head to get out of it. Kanai then switched to kicks leading to wild swinging misses from both wrestlers. Yamashita got the first big hit in with the Skull Kick that knocked Kai straight out. As a bonus for Yamashita, she ended up meeting Nattie Neidhart backstage again as well as Stone Cold Steve Austin!

2. Mahiro Kiryu, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Raku, Pom Harajuku & Mifu Ashida when Kiryu pinned Ashida with the Spinebuster (12:21).

5. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Wakana Uehara & Toga when Watanabe pinned Toga after the Daydream Eternity (14:17).
6. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Yuki Arai & Haru Kazashiro when Suzume pinned Kazashiro with the Ring A Bell (15:26).
The main event was a preview of what is coming up in 10 days time. The champions and challengers for the Princess Of Princess Title match and International Princess Title match. It was also a chance for Daisy Monkey to catch up with each other as a tag team again. While Arisu Endo kept Yuki Arai on her toes, Suzume matches Haru Kazashiro’s athleticism and then some, intercepting one of her Springboard moves into a Facecrusher and later pinning her with the Ring A Bell. After the match Suzume told Endo she wants them both to hold championships again even if this time they are different colours. Endo later said she can see a future where she is the adventurer defeating the final boss to get the treasure. Arai feels strange being called that but if she’s now the main character of Tokyo Joshi Pro then she wants to write a masterpiece as its champion! Kazashiro said she has gained some fighting spirit for her own title match despite losing today.
There is something else Daydream is looking for along with the Princess Tag Team Titles. Both Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe have been a team for a long time now but they never had their own tag team entrance song. So Daydream wants to win the Princess Tag Titles from The IInspiration and then sing their own brand new song.
The Southern Cross that Mizuki used to win her match was more like the Crossface/Labell Lock than the usual Face Lock she puts opponents in.
Some of those who went to Texas brought back some souvenirs to show off to everyone who stayed home. Raku & Pom Harajuku both went into their match wearing the Buc-ee outfits they got in Texas. Mifu Ashida was also dressed head to toe in Buc-ee’s merchandise.
I’m back home from Vegas and will aim to post the Around The World article about it over the weekend. I haven’t spent much time looking over what happened outside of the shows I went to.

8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee (c) Vs Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) vs Arisu Endo
It’s all set for Golden Week. Five years ago Yuki Arai had her pro wrestling debut with Arisu Endo as one of her opponents. Now they are going to fight for the Princess Of Princess Title as part of Arai’s 5th Anniversary! Endo has thought of Arai being TJPW’s ultimate hero but that’s a role she wants for herself. Arai thinks this match is fate because many of her important matches have involved Endo.
The IInspiration were given a fair warning by Miu Watanabe that Rika Tatsumi wanted to meet them. Now they have to deal with Daydream as their next challengers for the Princess Tag Team Titles. Since Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee aren’t in Japan at the moment, Daydream have found two dolls and decorated them to look like The IInspiration. They claim they are just doing it to be cute but everyone else can’t help but think this is mind games coming from the challengers.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 18/04/2026 TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi 222 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Kira Summer & Chika Nanase when Kiryu pinned Nanase with the Spinebuster (11:25).
2. Mifu Ashida defeated Papillon Akemi with the German Suplex (12:34).
3. Mei Suruga defeated Ren Konatsu with the Gâteau Invisible (11:08).
4. Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro defeated Rika Tatsumi & Shion Kanzaki when Endo pinned Kanzaki with the Ju no Okite (18:32).
While the majority of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster went over to America, those who remained in Japan held their own show, the next edition of the “TJPW INSPIRATION” series of shorter wrestling events that are a little bit different than usual. In the main event Rika Tatsumi took a break to go get food for herself & Shion Kanzaki. They also force fed their opponents with the food. Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro launched a successful comeback with Kazashiro diving onto the other team and Endo then finishing off Kanzaki with the Ju no Okite. After the match, Kazashiro sent out a message of thanks to Suzume for successfully defending the International Princess Title in America. She owes so much of her career to Suzume which is why she wanted her to be the champion for her 4th May title shot. Endo then announced that she wants to be the next person to challenge Yuki Arai for the Princess Of Princess Title! She actually called Arai backstage after the show to challenge her directly after figuring out it was 10pm over in Las Vegas so she should still be awake. Arai answered the call, confirmed she watched the show on Wrestle Universe and accepted Arai’s challenge!
Last year Mei Suruga and Ren Konatsu got to wrestle each other in a tag match at “WRESTLE PRINCESS VI” but today was their first singles match against each other. Suruga refused to shake Konatsu’s hand before the match and then got into a pose-off to see who is cuter. She then clipped off the toy sheep from Konatsu’s belt to taunt her further. Konatsu tried to fight back but missed the Aries Comet, allowing Suruga to trap her in the Gâteau Invisible and make her tap out. Suruga said she had so much fun today and was bursting with motivation because whenever the TJPW roster travels overseas, it feels like Japan is left entrusted to wrestlers like herself. She thinks Konatsu has a lot of room for growth so she hopes they can wrestle each other more and more. She is also excited to form “The Ultimate Sister Trio” of herself, Mizuki & Uta Takami at the 4th May Korakuen Hall show. Konatsu said she aimed to bite the “big apple” right down to her core but instead it was herself who was eaten alive today.
Mifu Ashida’s cheerleading talents convinced Papillon Akemi to give it a go during their match. It eventually became a distraction so they went back to wrestling each other. Akemi lost focus and became vulnerable to Ashida doing the German Suplex to get the victory.
Twin magic prevailed in the opener! Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu kept finding ways to use their similar likenesses in order to confuse Kira Summer & Chika Nanase into forgetting who was who. Not every plan worked but the confusion led to Nanase accidentally knocking down Summer with a missed attack. Sekiguchi then sent Nanase into Kiryu’s way for the Spinebuster to end the match.
