Watase was warned by the FREEEDOMS side that his work in GanPro is too amateur for him to be prepared for a Lighttube Death Match with Jun Kasai. However he is confident that he can beat Kasai in a normal match so isn’t scared to fight him in a more dangerous environment.

The trainee Sentaro Motoshima has earned his debut spot on the show. He is being added to the rookies match that was already on the card with another extra wrestler to be announced once it has been decided who it shall be. Motoshima was born in Kagoshima on 4th October, 2001. He is 167cm tall and weighs 74kg. He has a background in basketball and volleyball. He also participates in strength training as a hobby.

There is an interesting piece of trivia about Shinjuku FACE that a Tokyo Sports article had yesterday. Mayumi Ozaki took part in the first pro wrestling match held in the venue 20 years ago! Shinjuku FACE’s first event after it opened was a women’s MMA show but it included a joshi wrestling match as bonus main event featuring Ozaki & Dynamite Kansai against Aja Kong & Manami Toyota. The only other person working on this show who was there from the start is Yuka Ogawa, the staff member who is interviewed in the above Tokyo Sports article.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO PRINCESS CUP”, 23/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match: Maki Itoh Vs X
2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: X Vs X

So this is a weird one. Maki Itoh had plans to tour America again during the Tokyo Princess Cup but that schedule has now been cancelled and she is staying in Japan. As far as I know the only announced dates for Itoh’s tour up to this point were the two GCW Homecoming shows taking place during the same weekend as the Tokyo Princess Cup final. Since the tournament has already began, Tokyo Joshi Pro decided not to add her into it. Given the timing it was probably too late to book her as Moka Miyamoto’s replacement in Miyu Yamashita’s 1st Round match. Instead Itoh will have a match against one of the eliminated wrestlers on the same day as the final. Her opponent will not be revealed until after the semi finals on 17th August have been completed.

TJPW announced yesterday that Moka Miyamoto will continue to miss shows for the time being while she is getting treated for her illness. They have not gotten into any further detail about what has happened to her other than they will let everyone know when she will return.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~” Results

July 26, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GARAFES DASH!! ~UENO KITEKITE DAI SAKUSEN~”, 26/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. Yuki Arai, Raku & Shino Suzuki defeated Miu Watanabe, Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami when Arai submitted Takami with the Scoripion Death Lock (?:??).

The match turned into a big excuse to have a water fight on stage. Everyone armed themselves with water guns and brought buckets filled with water balloons to throw at each other and also the audience.

While not a part of the Tokyo Joshi Pro segment, NωA Jr. were also at Garafes for a performance of their own. During it they explained the rules of pro wrestling to the audience and demonstrated how matches can be won. Yuni just so happened to be the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion so when Kazuma Sumi put him in a Sleeper Hold that was too tight, Yuni tapped out and Daisuke Kiso declared it a title change! Shunma Katsumata then Super Kicked Sumi and pinned him with a School Boy to become the latest champion. Then later in the concert NωA Jr. chased each other onto the stage in the middle of the Momoiro Clover Z performance. Sanshiro Takagi was there too and he gave Katsumata a Stunner. Reni Takagi then pinned him to win the title. After that the rest of Momoiro Clover Z piled on top of her and Juri Suzue was declared the new champion.

BASARA “BASARA 285 ~CONTINUATION IS POWER~”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Lil’ Kraken & Takeru Inoue Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shota Kawakami

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “FUCKED UP FEST 2025”, 03/08/2025
Tokyo Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR

1. Special Single Match: Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Tatsuhiko Yoshino
2. Special Single Match: MAO Vs K4PY
3. Special Single Match: Takeshi Masada Vs Gabai Ji-chan
4. Special Tag Team Match: Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Mr. Malo & Mr. Bueno
5. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes Vs Kota Sekifuda

We have two special Baka Gaijin + Friends shows coming up in August. The first is the brand’s debut in Oji BASEMENT MONSTAR for the second ever “FUCKED UP FEST”. It will be a festival of wrestling and music that when mashed together results in the name of the show. Kota Sekifuda, Gabai Ji-chan and Tatsuhiko Yoshino are among the guest wrestlers taking part.

Sekifuda tweeted that when he made the decision to go leave Big Japan and go freelance, Chris Brookes was the first person who offered him a booking.

K4PY previously wrestled under the name Takahiro Katori. I think it’s just a fairly recent name change like within the last month or so.

DDT “D GENERATIONS 5 ~UNFINISHED SHACHIHOKO BOYS~”, 16/08/2025
Aichi Imaike Gas Hall

1. Ilusion Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Hideki Okatani Vs Ryoma Tsukamoto
3. Shota Vs Yuya Koroku
4. Special Tag Match: Daichi Sato & Yuki Ishida Vs Ryutaro Ono & Masanorikanu Watanabe
5. Special Single Match: To-y Vs Grand Passion Mask No. 4
6. Special Tag Match: Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi Vs Yu Shimizu & Ali Najima

The D GENERATIONS lot don’t have to worry as much about the Young Communication on their next show because it is being held in Nagoya. That means several Nagoya based wrestlers will be facing them instead. Only Shota from the Young Communication generation will be there for a match against Yuya Koroku.

This caught my eye. Ryutaro Ono is a 35 year old CEO of five different companies (among them being related to agriculture, a café and welfare for the elderly and disabled) who only just debuted in pro wrestling for Sportiva Entertainment in May of this year. His tag partner for the match is MMA fighter Masanorikanu Watanabe.

DDT “OSAKA VS TOKYO – DREAM EAST VS WEST PRO WRESTLING BATTLE 2025”, 17/08/2025
Osaka Edion Arena #2

1. Rukiya Return Match: Rukiya Vs X
2. East Vs West Vs Unknown All-Out Competition ~ 3 Way Tag Match: Yuki Iino (Tokyo) & Yukio Naya (Tokyo) Vs Chris Brookes (UK) & Takeshi Masada (Osaka) Vs Ilusion (Unknown) & MJ Paul (Unknown)
3. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 6-Man Tag Match: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan (Tokyo), To-y (Saitama) & Kazuki Hirata (Tokyo) Vs Danshoku Dieno (Hiroshima), Shigehiro Irie (Osaka) & Mikiya Sasaki (Osaka)
4. East Vs West All-Out Competition ~ Special 8-Man Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi (Hokkaido), Daisuke Sasaki (Tokyo), HARASHIMA (Tokyo) & Antonio Honda (Tokyo) Vs Yuki Ueno (Osaka), Hideki Okatani (Kochi), KANON (Ishikawa) & Kazuma Sumi (Mie)
5. Eastern Army Offer Match: MAO (Miyagi) (w/ KIMIHIRO (Tokyo)) Vs Super Sasadango Machine (Niigata)
6. Western Army Offer Match: Jun Akiyama (Osaka) Vs Miyu Yamashita (Fukuoka)

Two matches on the East Vs West show will focus on just one side of the country. The East side of Japan offers MAO against Super Sasadango Machine. Not bad. But the West side has come up with the utterly cracked pairing of Jun Akiyama Vs Miyu Yamashita! This is before Akiyama’s KO-D Openweight Title match too so if Yamashita somehow pulls out a victory, or maybe even a draw she may end up having an argument for getting a future KO-D Title shot herself!

SUPER JAPAN “SANSHIRO TAKAGI 30TH ANNIVERSARY PROJECT ~SUPER JAPAN PRO WRESTLING HATAAGE-SEN”, 19/08/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: Yasu Urano Vs Mikiya Sasaki
2. Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku Vs MIKAMI
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Yuji, Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei Vs Fuminori Abe, Takuya Nomura & Ippanjin Munenori Sawa

A new face has signed an exclusive contract with Super Japan. But his alter ego should be familiar to a lot of people following this space. Mac Matsushita made debuted as a pro wrestler in Mexico but had a run in DDT and the indies as Maku Donaruto. You remember him, the super perverted Ronald McDonald gimmick? Yeah that’s the guy. Well, Sanshiro Takagi has been trying to get him to ditch the mask to wrestle as himself and he has succeeded in convincing him. Matsushita’s return match in Japan will be on the 19th August Super Japan show.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “MNL”, 22/08/2025
The Social House, Makati, Philippines

1. International Dream Match: Jake De Leon & Isaiah Valencia Vs Chris Bookes & Takeshi Masada

The second Baka Gaijin show of August will be their first time taking the show outside of Japan. Baka Gaijin is heading over to the Philippines as part of a weekend of wrestling put together by Dexcon. The first match announced sees Chris Brookes & Takeshi Masada taking on the local pair of Jake De Leon & Isaiah Valencia.
