“GAISEN SAKURA PRO WRESTLING”, 11/04/2026
Okayama Shinjo Village
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Takumi Tsukamoto defeated Takeru Inoue with a Crab Hold (8:36).
2. Rika Tatsumi defeated Kira Summer with the Twist Of Fate (8:25).
3. Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Arisu Endo & Chika Nanase when Misao pinned Nanase with the I Am A Hero (9:39).

5. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Aja Kong, Mizuki & Mifu Ashida when Aino pinned Ashida with the Venus DDT (15:22).
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated Ryuichi Sekine with the Splash Mountain (16:14).
*V3 for Shuji Ishikawa.

The second ever Gaisen Sakura show put together by Ryuichi Sekine and his wife Nodoka Tenma brought a day of wrestling to their home of Shinjo Village in Okayama. Matches were provided by both BASARA and Tokyo Joshi Pro with Sekine taking part in a main event Union MAX Title challenge against Shuji Ishikawa. Although he wasn’t able to win the belt in front of his wife and child, Sekine promised everyone he will continue to live in the village determined to never give up.

Tenma’s sister Yuki Aino teamed up with the rest of the Tojo Tokosatsu Club to fight against Aja Kong again. She also had to dodge out of the way from a top rope smashing hammer attack from Mizuki. Mizuki had some more misfortune after that when Kong accidentally hit her over the head with the steel can that was aimed for someone else. The Club were given 10kg of A5 Grade wagyu beef as their reward for winning the match. They knew it was raining in the area yesterday and believe it went away today because Kong is really a super ultra sunshine girl.

Uesaka Declares War On Antonio, Max Title Match Under The Sakura Blossoms

March 26, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 303 ~UTAGE~”, 27/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Kaji Tomato
2. Turnabout Pro Wrestling Trial: Ayato Yoshida Vs Gouma Ryu Vs Banana Senga
3. Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida Vs FUMA & Judomaster
4. Daichi Kazato, Tsutomu Oosugi & Shuji Ishikawa Vs SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino

Before the busy weekend begins, there’s a BASARA show to get through first.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Uta Takami Vs Shion Kanzaki
2. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title – Staggered Entry Battle Royal: Antonio Honda (c) Vs Sumire Uesaka Vs Rika Tatsumi/Great Wakabayashi-kun Vs Raku Vs Mahiro Kiryu Vs Mifu Ashida Vs Kira Summer Vs Chika Nanase Vs Sakura Hattori Vs Matcha Vs Momo Sato Vs Minimo (w/ Mari Yaguchi)

6. Miyu Yamashita & Arisu Endo Vs Sareee & Takumi Iroha
7. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Hyper Misao & Super Sasadango Machine

9. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
10. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

It’s looking like Antonio Honda will be the defending Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion in the Battle Royal. His inclusion in the match has gotten Sumire Uesaka’s attention, enough for her to declare war on him just because his name is Antonio! Honda’s told Tokyo Sports that if Uesaka attacks him, his response will be to target her arm. That way if she gets injured it will just be to her arm and she’ll still be able to do her voice acting job.

I’m aiming to get the “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” preview posted by Saturday.

By the way, Sekine & Nodoka Tenma are expecting their second child in the summer if you haven’t heard already. Tenma revealed that news on her Twitter like a month ago.

BASARA “BASARA 301 ~UTAGE~” Results

March 6, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 301 ~UTAGE~”, 06/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans

1. Fuminori Abe defeated Takeru Inoue with the O-Manjigatame (9:52).
2. SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Banana Senga (w/ Gouma Ryu) when SAGAT pinned Hiroshi with the Gore Grind (9:51).
3. Ryota Nakatsu & Isami Kodaka defeated FUMA & Seiya Morohashi when Nakatsu pinne FUMA with a Jackknife Pin (13:19).
4. Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Tatsuya Hanami defeated Takato Nakano, Masato Kamino & Yasu Urano when Tsukamoto pinned Nakano with the Spinning Zudon (15:24).
5. Union MAX Title – 3 Way Match: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated Daichi Kazato and Tsutomu Oosugi when Ishikawa pinned Kazato with the Splash Mountain (15:29).
*V2 for Shuji Ishikawa.

Shuji Ishikawa survived a 3 Way Match against two opponents who spent most of the match teaming up against him. The alliance between Daichi Kazato and Tsutomu Oosugi eventually broke down and that proved to be both of their downfalls. With them divided, Ishikawa found his spot to attack and won the match by pinning Kazato with the Splash Mountain. After the match he said a wrestler’s individuality is what makes them tick although Kazato is maybe a little too unique. Backstage Ishikawa said the match has sharpened his mind and he’ll keep defending his Union MAX Title. Oosugi took the responsibility for moving away from the plan with Kazato. He admitted to changing his mind halfway through the match when he started thinking he could win by himself. Kazato explained how the true enemy is the one within yourself. He thinks they can both beat Ishikawa next time if they can convince Takeru Inoue to join in and make the fight three against one.

The two teams in the upcoming Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match quickly got into a brawl with each other in Match #4. Takumi Tsukamoto ended up scoring the win for his side after giving Takato Nakano the Spinning Zudon. Despite feeling sore, Nakano said Aijin Tag are ready for the next warm up match as well as the tag title match later this month. Masato Kamino said Aijin Tag will win the Iron Fist Tag Titles because the belts were made for them. Tsukamoto is confident that he and Daiki Shimomura have what it takes to beat them on 27th March. They also doubt the challengers love the championships as much as they claim they do.

1. Union MAX Title – 3 Way Match: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs Daichi Kazato Vs Tsutomu Oosugi

Next up for Shuji Ishikawa’s journey through BASARA is a Union MAX Title defence in a 3 Way Match. Daichi Kazato’s erratic behavior has somehow gotten himself and Tsutomu Oosugi a title shot.

BASARA “BASARA 298 ~10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW~” Results

January 31, 2026

BASARA “BASARA 298 ~10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW~”, 31/01/2026
Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano defeated Isami Kodaka & Takeru Inoue when Fujita pinned Kodaka with the Modified Samson Clutch (12:19).
2. Ayato Yoshida defeated Daichi Kazato with a Pinfall after Kazato missed the Firebird Splash (11:36).
3. GRACE PROJECT Offer Match: Tomoya Hirata, Captain Grace & Violento Jack defeated Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga when Jack pinned Hiroshi with the San Buena Ventura (11:03).
4. Ryota Nakatsu, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida defeated Ryuichi Sekine, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino when Nakatsu pinned Nakano with the V Slider (11:52).
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) defeated SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken when Shimomura pinned Kraken with the Swanton Bomb (13:10).
*V1 for Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura.
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) defeated FUMA with the Giant Slam (19:53).
*V1 for Shuji Ishikawa.

The last time Shuji Ishikawa and FUMA fought each other for the Union MAX Title was way back in April 2015. Over ten years later they went through with the rematch. This time it was Ishikawa who won and he even kicked out of the Jawbreaker kick. FUMA kicked out of the Kamigoye and the Splash Mountain so Ishikawa needed to use the Giant Slam to finally put him away. Ishikawa thanked FUMA after the match because it made him push himself further to become even stronger. He then invited all of the BASARA wrestlers out to talk about the company’s 10th Anniversary. Union Pro closed down on its 10th Anniversary but Ishikawa is confident BASARA will continue on to reach its 15th and even 20th anniversaries. As long as he holds a championship with Union’s name on it he will consider BASARA like it is home but he will still be a stubborn champion for everyone here to try and beat. He exited the ring and left the rest of the locker room to end the show by celebrating BASARA’s happy occasion.

Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura overcame the Super Family to remain the Iron Fist Tag Team Champions. They praised the challengers for having better teamwork than their own and are now waiting to see who they will defend the titles against next. Shimomura will be celebrating his own 10th Anniversary in March but he wants to have a title defence before then. SAGAT asked Lil’ Kraken backstage if they are going to split up because that was the plan if they lost without showing any growth. He would like them to continue teaming together and Kraken told him he will spend the night thinking about it.

After a three month hiatus to deal with a neck injury, Isami Kodaka returned to action today. Despite losing the match he is happy his comeback happened safely and he is excited to see what BASARA will be like after reaching the ten year milestone.

At the start of the show Ryuichi Sekine promoted the next Gaisen Sakura Pro Wrestling show taking place in Okayama on 11th April.

What’s Going On Everywhere Else?

January 14, 2026

One good thing about Maki Itoh joining Stardom is I no longer have to write about GCW so much at the start of every month.

BASARA “BASARA 297 ~UTAGE~”, 16/01/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Ryuma Sekimo
2. Daichi Kazato Vs Ayumu Honda
3. Ryota Nakatsu & Takato Nakano Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Tsutomu Oosugi
4. FUMA & Masato Kamino Vs Shuji Ishikawa & Yasu Urano
5. Takumi Tsukamoto, Daiki Shimomura & Banana Senga Vs SAGAT, Lil’ Kraken & Minoru Fujita

The first BASARA show of the year has a few preview matches for their upcoming title bouts. Also Ryuma Sekimo from Big Japan will be taking part in the opener against BASARA’s rookie Takeru Inoue.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 17/01/2026
Yokohama Radiant Hall

BASARA “BASARA 298 ~10TH ANNIVERSARY SHOW~”, 31/01/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Daichi Kazato Vs X
2. GRACE PROJECT Offer Match: Tomoya Hirata, Captain Grace & Violento Jack Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi, Tsutomu Oosugi & Banana Senga
3. Ryuichi Sekine, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino Vs Ryota Nakatsu, Naomi Yoshimura & Yuki Ishida
4. Isami Kodaka & Takeru Inoue Vs Minoru Fujita & Yasu Urano
5. Iron Fist Tag Team Titles: Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura (c) Vs SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken
6. Union MAX Title: Shuji Ishikawa (c) Vs FUMA

The Union MAX Title is throwing itself back to its origins now that Shuji Ishikawa is the new champion. His first challenger is FUMA who has held the title both in Union Pro and in BASARA. Ishikawa joked they should bring back an old Union gimmick and have this be a 1,000 Roses Death Match for old time’s sake. He’s taking things a bit more seriously after FUMA said he hunts down boars that are heavier than Ishikawa.

When it comes to dominant factions in BASARA, the Super Family has not been one of them. But they’ve become tenacious enough to earn SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken a shot at the Iron Fist Tag Team Titles. The new champs Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura don’t want to lose the belts to anybody and they especially don’t want to lose to the Super Family!

As he promised a while back, Isami Kodaka returns from his absence in time for BASARA’s anniversary.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 14/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Mahiro Kiryu (c) Vs Aja Kong
2. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Toga
3. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: X & X Vs X & X

The prodigal daughter of TJPW MIRAI has come back to win the International Princess Title that was beyond her grasp in the past. Now she’s looking to the future where she sees an opponent with a similar smash heavy style as hers waiting to challenge her. Toga wants to show everyone she can get the job done without needing help from Yuna Manase or anyone else so she was the first one to ask MIRAI for a title shot.

The Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title just can’t get away from Mahiro Kiryu. Every time she loses the belt, fate makes sure she finds a way to win it back. She now has a pinfall over Aja Kong because of this but that means Kong now wants to fight Kiryu one on one! She knows she can easily take the belt from her whenever she wants but she has enough pride to do it in the ring with a proper wrestling match. The bout will still go ahead if Kiryu loses the title to someone else beforehand.

The two title matches booked for this show are why Toga and Kiryu are not competing in this year’s Max Heart Tournament.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs X & X
2. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Second time’s the charm for Yuki Arai. She avenged her squash to Miyu Yamashita in the recent 6-Woman Elimination match and will now get to face Miu Watanabe for the Princess Of Princess Title. She couldn’t win the belt at Ota Ward Gymnasium last year but can she do it in Sumo Hall this year?

There are so many ways the Special Tag Match can go. It will be Konosuke Takeshita’s first time wrestling in TJPW (he was meant to be part of their US debut in 2020 but that show was cancelled due to covid) and he will be teaming up with his wife Yuka Sakazaki to make it a bigger deal. Their opponents have not been announced yet. The recent news of Shingo Takagi & Natsupoi led to some jokes about them being the other team in a battle of the happy couples. I think enough time has passed that the issue Sakazaki had with Natsupoi leaving TJPW years ago is now water under the bridge. The opponents are likely another mixed pair tag team though, one that doesn’t have to be romantically attached to each other.

The current list of guests who will wrestle on the show are Sareee, Lei Ying Lee, Aja Kong, Andreza Giant Panda and Minimo-chan with Mari Yaguchi accompanying it. Also Max The Impaler will be at the show.

*Ryota Nakatsu fails in V7. Shuji Ishikawa becomes the 23rd Union MAX Champion!

Back when the Union MAX Title was created in 2013, Shuji Ishikawa was one of the first wrestlers to fight for it. He lost the match to become the first champion in Union Pro and never got to hold the belt until 13 years later. Due to some mismanagement involving Ken Ohka, Ishikawa was promised a title match if he came to BASARA for their final show of the year. Ryota Nakatsu felt the need to deliver that promise for the sake of protecting BASARA’s reputation. On the night itself, Nakatsu was accompanied to the ring by all of Harimao along with Daichi Kazato while Ishikawa was just by himself. His strength was overwhelming for the champion but Nakatsu found ways to fight back including using the Super Figure 4 Leg Lock, Buzzsaw Kicks and also La Magistral Cradle. When none of them worked he took a big risk by doing a Sky Twister Press but Ishikawa rolled out of the way. Nakatsu kicked out of the Splash Mountain so Ishikawa hit him with several Knee Strikes until he used the Giant Slam to win the title that originally belonged to his old home promotion.

Ishikawa greeted the BASARA fans after the match and praised Nakatsu because he could feel the power behind all of his moves. He wondered who will come out and challenge him first, suggesting Gouma Ryu as an opponent if nobody else will answer him. FUMA entered the ring and welcomed Ishikawa to BASARA. He told him BASARA will be celebrating its 10th Anniversary in January and it’s also been 10 years since Union Pro closed down. Ishikawa wants to know whose last decade of wrestling is more intense, FUMA’s or his own? FUMA warned him that over the last 10 years he has hunted wild boars that weigh over 200kg so he can easily take on a human that weighs over 100kg. Ishikawa said he is so dedicated to being the Union MAX Champion that he has already cleared his schedule for next year so he can defend the belt in BASARA! He accepts FUMA’s challenge for 31st January and they can even make it a 1,000 Roses Death Match for old time’s sake. He then closed out the show to the old Union Pro theme song, “Union Rocker” by ARB.

The Tag Gauntlet match was won by the Super Family team of SAGAT & Lil’ Kraken. They were the final entrants in the match but after the year they had, Kraken is not taking the victory for granted. He called Takumi Tsukamoto & Daiki Shimomura down to the ring. He said Shimomura has no integrity because he lost an Iron Fist Tag Team Titles match in November only to switch tag team partners and get another title shot one month later. But if that’s the way things work then Kraken will take an even more shameless route and demand his own undeserved title shot with SAGAT as his partner. Shimomura told him he could have just made a straightforward challenge and Tsukamoto decided it can take place at the 10th Anniversary show on 31st January.
