Yamanashi Kose Sports Park Gymnasium Sub-Arena (Kofu City)
117 Fans

-. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Pom Harajuku defeated Haruna Neko by Forfeit.
1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Haru Kazashiro defeated Ren Konatsu with the Fisherman Suplex (6:51).
2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Shino Suzuki defeated Uta Takami with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex (7:34).
3. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase with the Bird Cage (7:31).
4. Moka Miyamoto & HIMAWARI defeated Maki Itoh & Ivy Steele when Miyamoto submitted Steele with the Rashomon (9:35).
5. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Yuki Aino, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kira Summer when Nakajima pinned Summer with the Northern Lights Suplex (12:14).
6. Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Rika Tatsumi & Toga when Kamifuku pinned Toga with the Famouser (9:48).
7. Mizuki, Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miu Watanabe, Raku & Pom Harajuku when Mizuki pinned Harajuku with the Diving Foot Stomp (13:43).

Since Haruna Neko was injured and unable to take part in her own homecoming show, some of the other wrestlers wanted to make her feel part of the main event. Pom Harajuku loudly congratulated her for the hometown show and then led Miu Watanabe & Raku in doing cat-like movements to try and attack the other team. That didn’t work and instead Mizuki pulled off one of Harajuku’s shoes and threw it over to the table Neko was sitting at. Mizuki & Daisy Monkey then brought their opponents over to Neko so she could scratch all of their faces. Harajuku tried to escape the punishment but was caught and given extra scratches. Later Harajuku tried to hit Mizuki with her shoe but missed and knocked out Yukinori Matsui instead. Watanabe held Mizuki in a Head Lock and Harujuku swung her shoe again but Mizuki again dodged it and Watanabe got hit instead. Mizuki grabbed the shoe and threw it away while Suzume & Arisu Endo cleared the ring of their opponents. That left the ring clear for Mizuki to pin Harajuku with the Diving Foot Stomp. Neko joined the winning team to close out the show with them.

Match #5 featured the return of both Hyper Misao and Kira Summer so Misao wanted to fight fair against Summer. However when they shook hands to start the match it ended up being an ambush by Misao’s team. Kyoraku Kyomei then used the ring apron on the outside to wrap up Summer in the corner. The only problem is they also caught their own partner Mahiro Kiryu in the process. When the two wrestlers were freed, Kiryu then suddenly found herself on her own fighting against Summer, Yuki Aino & Yoshiko Hasegawa. She found time to apologise for getting caught in the trap. Misao later blinded Summer with a spray can and wiped out the other two with the I Am A Hero. Shoko Nakajima finished things off by pinning Summer with the Northern Lights Suplex.

Three qualifying matches in the Tokyo Princess Cup preliminary league took place on the undercard. Kaya Toribami defeated Chika Nanase by submission with the Bird Cage. She said she needed to take every opening Nanase gave her in order to win today. Nanase said she needs to develop more attacks and power beyond what her seniors expect from her. Shino Suzuki used a Belly-To-Belly Suplex to beat Uta Takami in a first ever singles meeting between the two. Shino admits she envies Takami for her cheerfulness and natural talent but she was able to beat her today because she worked hard. She’s thankful for Takami being a part of The Up Up Girls because she pushes Suzuki to improve. Takami also shares the same gratitude towards Suzuki. Finally, Haru Kazashiro used the Fisherman Suplex to pin Ren Konatsu. This summer is Kazashiro’s last as a high school student so she wants to grab every chance she can and qualify for the Princess Cup. Konatsu didn’t even expect she would get a chance to qualify because she only debuted this month. She is fired up to try and get her first win by herself but felt the difference in experience between her and Kazashiro, even if it’s only by two years.

Neko got to give a speech during the show and get a ring entrance filled with streamers thrown her way. She thanked everyone for attending the show and explained she wasn’t able to compete because of her knee injury (she would have faced Pom Harajuku in a Princess Cup qualifier today if she could).

The war between D GENERATIONS and Young Communication isn’t over by a long shot. Shota has promised to bring someone new into the fold while Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie have yet to be directly beaten by any of their juniors.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN UENO”, 08/07/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Dance V Idol Battle Without Honor & Humanity ~ Special Single Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Yuni

3. KANON 6th Anniversary Match ~ Special Tag Match: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs HARASHIMA & Danshoku Dieno

Years ago when Yuni was just a little boy, he feuded with Kazuki Hirata because that was the level Hirata had to fall down towards just to get a fair fight. Now that Yuni has grown up it’s time to reignited the rivalry with the bonus power of idol dancing involved.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “YOSHIKO HASEGAWA GRADUATION EVENT – NONFICTION”, 08/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 2: X Vs X
2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 2: X Vs X
3. Yoshiko Hasegawa Graduation Commemorative Match ~ 1 Vs 27 Handicap Match: Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Suzume, Rika Tatsumi, Maki Itoh, Yuki Kamifuku, Yuki Aino, Miu Watanabe, Raku, Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Moka Miyamoto, Arisu Endo, Yuki Arai, Kaya Torbami, Wakana Uehara, HIMAWARI, Toga, Shino Suzuki, Haru Kazashiro, Mifu Ashida, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase, Uta Takami, Ren Konatsu & Ivy Steele

Well, Yoshiko Hasegawa said she wanted to fight everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro before she retires so TJPW made sure nobody will be left out of her final match. It is a 1 Vs 27 Handicap Match but only one person on the team of 27 is allowed in the ring at one time and tags are in effect. It has not been decided yet how many falls the match will consist of. One definitely won’t be enough and previous retirement matches of this scale have done three falls.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “QUERI PRESENTS TJPW LIVE IN HOUSTON – NIGHT 2”, 11/07/2025
POST, Houston, Texas, USA

An extra name has been added to the Texas tour. Wakana Uehara will be part of the weekend and there might be a good reason why. All of a sudden Miyu Yamashita is no longer able to perform on the 11th July show. That just so happens to be the same day as the next Ring Of Honor PPV and she has started appearing on their shows again. I mean it’s either that or she’s taking a flight to Tennessee for Smackdown (I kid, I kid). Yamashita will still be at the morning fan event in Houston.

DDT “FIGHTING BEER GARDEN 2025 IN SHINJUKU – DAY 1”, 15/07/2025
Shinjuku FACE

1. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Hikaru Sato

The new DDT Extreme Champion put up a poll on Twitter asking fans who he should defend the title against first? To-y narrowed the choices down to wrestlers who have at least 5,000 followers and made fans choose between Yasu Urano, Kentaro Hachisu, Hikaru Sato and Mikiya Sasaki (with Shota in his corner). Sato won the vote pretty handily so he gets the title match. It wouldn’t be the first time a fan vote results in Sato winning a DDT championship.

Match #2 needs everyone to enter Rumble style before it can end. Match #3 involves a cursed spring that will manifest underneath the ring.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN KOFU”, 21/06/2025
Yamanashi Kose Sports Park Gymnasium Sub-Arena (Kofu City)

The preliminary qualifiers for the Tokyo Princess Cup have reached a bump in the road due to illnesses and injuries so three matches are happening at this show instead of two.

Both Hyper Misao and Kira Summer have been cleared to return. Summer won’t be having her delayed qualifier match just yet though. She and Misao will both be part of a 6-Woman Tag to shake off any ring rust they picked up over the last month.

Yuki Arai and Mifu Ashida are both missing the show because of schedule conflicts.

This is supposed to be Haruna Neko’s homecoming show but she cannot wrestle due to injury. She will still be there and a special event will be held for her after the show ends.

GANBARE☆PRO “BLUE VELVET 2025”, 22/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Ken Ohka & Choun-Shiryu Vs Shinichiro Tominaga & Ali Najima

3. Mizuki Watase Vs Munetatsu Nakamura
4. GanPro Ultimate Rules: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs Thanomsak Toba

6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Yumehito Imanari (c) Vs Tyson “Ultimate” Maeguchi

The next Spirit Of Ganbare World Title defence for Yumehito Imanari has gotten a little bit more dangerous. Tyson Maeguchi is fully embracing his combat sports background by turning into Tyson “Ultimate” Maeguchi. MMA fighters have historically overpowered pro wrestlers in Japan so Imanari’s title run might be facing its biggest threat yet.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW INSPIRATION”, 28/06/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. Shoko Nakajima Vs Ren Konatsu
2. 3 Minute Exhibition Match: Ai Shimizu Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa
3. Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Gabai Ji-chan & Mahiro Kiryu
4. Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami
*Special Referee: Nao Kakuta
5. Mizuki & Miu Watanabe Vs Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami

As a special bonus, Nao Kakuta will appear on the show as the special referee for Match #4. She has ties with Tae Honma, Miyuki Takase and Yoshiko Hasegawa. She’s also had many matches with Kaya Toribami over the years so Toribami shouldn’t be treated like the odd one out.

Interesting early matchup for Ren Konatsu. The agility she has already shown goes hand in hand with Shoko Nakajima’s wrestling style.

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025” Results

June 3, 2025

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025”, 03/06/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. 1 Vs 4 Handicap Match: Danshoku Dieno defeated Yuya Koroku, Yuni, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi when Dieno pinned Sumi with the Gaydo Clutch (7:57).
2. Thank You Toru Owashi ~ Toru Owashi 20th Anniversary Of DDT Participation Series Vol. 4: HARASHIMA & Yuki Ueno defeated Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata when Ueno submitted Hirata with a Sleeper Hold (12:05).
3. Special Tag Match: Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Naya defeated Jun Akiyama & Daichi Sato when Higuchi pinned Sato with the Claw Hold (7:18).
4. Referee Daisuke Kiso 15th Anniversary Match ~Special 6-Man Tag Match~: MAZADA, Minoru Fujta & Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Yasu Urano, Akito & Shoko Nakajima when Fujita pinned Urano with the Modified Samson Clutch (12:34).
5. Lumberjack Pool Crocodile Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion defeated Chris Brookes, Antonio Honda & Takeshi Masada when Sasaki submitted Honda with the Crossface Lock with the Crocodile in the Pool (12:51).
6. STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION Vs The 37KAMIINA!: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) defeated Shunma Katsumata & To-y when MAO pinned Katsumata with a Running Palm Strike (19:00).

MAO has come back from spreading the word of DDT to New Japan as part of the Best Of The Super Jr. tournament. KANON was there with him for parts of the tour but today was the first time in a month that Strange Love Connection were teaming together. When To-y tried to get the fans to chant “T.O.Y”, MAO countered with the “Shikaku” chants he started doing during BOSJ. The match soon left the ring where KANON put To-y in the Cobra Twist 2.0 beneath the stage platform while MAO knocked Shunma Katsumata onto a pile of chairs below. Back in the ring MAO gave Katsumata the Michinoku Driver II and then got the win after hitting a Running Palm Strike. After the match KIMIHIRO talked up The 37KAMIINA because MAO wouldn’t be who he is today without them. He also brought up KANON making it to the King Of DDT final recently. MAO talked about finishing tied for first place in his BOSJ block and while he couldn’t reach the final, he tried his best to attract New Japan fans to DDT. For that reason he wants everyone here to make DDT more exciting so they can create a new good era and all get rich together.

The Lumberjack Pool Crocodile Match was one big excuse for SCHADENFREUDE International and DAMNATION T.A to have a massive water fight against each other. There were some rubber pools filled with water placed around ringside and everyone walked out wearing summer outfits and also armed with water pistols. There was also a biting crocodile toy game placed nearby which Daisuke Sasaki used to dig into Antonio Honda’s head Crossface style to make him give up.

Six wrestlers who all have some sort of connection to Daisuke Kiso gathered together to celebrate his 15th anniversary in the business. Shoko Nakajima and Yoshiko Hasegawa were there from Tokyo Joshi Pro where Kiso also works. MAZADA & Minoru Fujita made sure Kiso wasn’t getting an easy day on the job. They pulled some dirty tricks on Akito & Yasu Urano that ended with Fujita grabbing the ropes for leverage to pin Urano without Kiso seeing it. Both teams congratulated Kiso backstage and he said he is looking forward to working hard for the next 16 or 17 years!

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN NERIMA” Results

May 31, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN NERIMA”, 31/05/2025
Tokyo Nerima Coconeri Hall
268 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Moka Miyamoto defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Korokan (8:28).
2. Miu Watanabe, Wakana Uehara & Ivy Steele defeated Pom Harajuku, HIMAWARI & Haru Kazashiro when Watanabe submitted Kazashiro with the Canadian Backbreaker (7:59).
3. Rika Tatsumi & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida when Tatsumi pinned Ashida with the Twist Of Fate (12:41).
4. Mizuki & Jada Stone defeated Maki Itoh & Uta Takami when Stone pinned Takami with the Spark Stunner (11:08).
5. Kaya Toribami, Toga & Shino Suzuki defeated Shoko Nakajima, Arisu Endo & Chika Nanase when Toribami pinned Nanase with the Sento Choryu (9:41).
6. International Princess Title: Suzume (c) defeated Yoshiko Hasegawa with the Ring A Bell (11:01).
*V5 for Suzume.

With only one month left until Yoshiko Hasegawa graduates from Tokyo Joshi Pro and retires from pro wrestling, she got her wish to challenge Suzume for the International Princess Title. Hasegawa focused her gameplan on using the Muffler Hold but Suzume ultimately fought her way to get the rope break. Hasegawa then went for the Diving Double Knee Attack but missed, allowing Suzume to run up the corner to do a Flying Facecrusher and then use the Ring A Bell to win the match. She said she was glad to feel all of Hasegawa’s emotions along with her passion and aggression. Even though she has beaten Hasegawa in all of their singles matches she still considers her a rival. Hasegawa was disappointed to lose but thanked Suzume for granting her selfish request. She will continue to be selfish until her last day because she wants to help liven up TJPW in her own way. Later Suzume said she will be ready to have her sixth title defence at “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” on 21st July with the goal of matching Yuki Arai’s record of title defences.

Social media messages sent between Maki Itoh and Uta Takami in the lead up to this show resulted in today’s match becoming the final test. If Takami passes then she would be accepted into the Itoh Respect Army. They performed “Setsunairo” together like last time then started the match well enough. But when Itoh & Takami did stereo Knuckle Punch spots in the ring corners, Takami made a fatal error. She called herself the cutest in the world and Itoh the second cutest! Itoh was so made at that she made Takami wrestle most of the match by herself. Itoh eventually got back into the match to make it a fair fight but Mizuki & Jada Stone ended up winning anyway.

When the match was over Itoh grabbed Takami by the scruff of the neck and brought her backstage. In the post-match interview she asked Takami who did she say the second cutest in the world is? Takami again said it was Itoh. That was her last strike and Takami was rejected from the Itoh Respect Army! Itoh was still mad but at least admitted it is good for a wrestler like Takami to have an ego. She doesn’t need to team with Itoh and should go forge her own path so they can meet again somewhere down the line. Takami said there’s so much she wants to learn from Itoh but Itoh complained that she’s taking things for granted and only saying what’s convenient for her. She will never team with Takami again! Takami promised she will try harder and the next time she is with Itoh either as a tag partner or her opponent she will be even stronger.

There is a theme park in Nerima that currently includes a Harry Potter world in it so Pom Harajuku entered this match dressed as a wizard (she wore a Slytherin cloak and tie). She kept trying to cast spells on Ivy Steele with her wand but nothing worked. But when Steele took the wand for her and cast a spell, it worked and knocked Harajuku off her feet. HIMAWARI wrestled the match in an eye patch but it is only for a minor injury. There is nothing to suggest she got poked in the eye with a wand or anything like that.

The Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League began with only one match so far due to Wakana Uehara Vs Kira Summer being postponed until Summer returns from injury. The match that did go ahead was Moka Miyamoto’s victory over Mahiro Kiryu. Given what was on the line in the match, Kiryu skipped past her usual apologies and went straight for the Double Knee Drop to everyone’s surprise. However Miyamoto took control and comfortably won with the Korokan. She now just has to win her 2nd Round match to qualify for the Princess Cup proper. She has a feeling she is going to be in for a long summer. Kiryu said that she is now in her 30s and starting to realise what she’s been lacking is honesty. She wants to express more of her emotions in the ring and show off a new side of her, like the B-Side of a tape.

It was announced that Max The Impaler will return to TJPW for “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” on 21st July.

Haruna Neko picked up another knee injury and will miss this weekend’s shows. She is currently having it examined so TJPW will give an update once her diagnosis is known.

Kira Summer has a thigh injury and will be resting for another 4 weeks. Her Tokyo Princess Cup qualifier match with Wakana Uehara that was meant to happen on Saturday is postponed until she returns. However if she is still not cleared to wrestle by late June she may have to forfeit the match.

Parts of the undercard for Saturday’s show has been changed because of Neko and Summer’s injuries. There is now one less match and Uehara takes Neko’s place in Match #2.

She was originally an SKE48 fan and started watching TJPW to follow Yuki Arai. However it was Suzume who inspired Konatsu to try wrestling out for herself so Suzume gets to be her very first opponent.

Should a grounded fighter position himself onto the ring apron the referee will shout “Don’t Move” and the match will pause for the wrestlers to reposition themselves over to the centre of the ring. Intentional fouls are an immediate disqualification while non-serious fouls result in a warning. Two warnings will result in a disqualification. Given the fighting styles of Shuichiro Katsumura, Takuya Wada, Tyson Maeguchi and Thanomsak Toba they should all adapt to the rules no problem.

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025”, 03/06/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. 1 Vs 4 Handicap Match: Danshoku Dieno Vs Yuya Koroku, Yuni, Yuki Ishida & Kazuma Sumi
2. Thank You Toru Owashi ~ Toru Owashi 20th Anniversary Of DDT Participation Series Vol. 4: HARASHIMA & Yuki Ueno Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata

6. STRANGE LOVE CONNECTION Vs The 37KAMIINA!: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Shunma Katsumata & To-y

Today was MAO’s final block match in the Best Of The Super Juniors tournament. He was able to beat SHO using everything he learned in DDT throughout his career and finished tied for first in his block with 12 points. However due to head-to-head tiebreakers he did not qualify for the final. I will write a full report for his tour with New Japan next week. Next week he comes back home to rejoin KANON and fight some old friends.

The rules for the Lumberjack Pool Crocodile Match have not been explained yet. Not even those in charge of DDT knows what it’s going to be.

The next match in Toru Owashi’s 20th Anniversary series is a partial reunion of DISASTER BOX! He will be in the same match as HARASHIMA, Yuki Ueno and Kazuki Hirata. Sadly Naomi Yoshimura will not be in attendance to complete the reunion.

Now that Danshoku Dieno is done with being a Strong Style wrestler, he’ll have to find his strength somewhere else to fight four opponents at once.

The two wrestlers both debuted in Actwrez Girl’z back in 2019 so this it will be the perfect time for the two classmates to reunite and face each other. It is also Sanshiro Takagi’s way of getting to book the rare Stardom Vs TJPW match on his show.

One of the last additions to the card is the Pro Wrestling Up Town pair of Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Momoka Hanazono taking on the once retired but not really anymore duo of Munenori Sawa & Mio Shirai.

DDT “KING OF KINGS ~ARASHI’S JUNE SHOWDOWN~”, 29/06/2025
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. International Special Tag Match: Mansoor & Mason Madden Vs Danshoku Dieno & Kazuki Hirata
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Kazusada Higuchi

Here comes the latest American tag team to make their DDT debuts. Straight from the lands of AEW and ROH it’s MxM Collection! Both Mansoor & Mason Madden sent a video where they said DDT should get ready to touch their tips. When Takagi heard that he immediately knew which two wrestlers should face them at Korakuen Hall. It’s the gatekeeper team of Dieno & Hirata!

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

1. Union MAX Title: Ryota Nakatsu (c) Vs X

There is currently no one worthy to challenge Ryota Nakatsu for the Union MAX Title. Normally at this time of year it would be the winner of Chouten ~Itadaki~ but that just so happens to be Nakatsu this time around. It’s not possible for him to fight himself so he is going to spend the summer wrestling on BASARA shows to decide for himself who should be the No. 1 Contender. He will not defend the title before then.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 1” Results

May 17, 2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW SPRING TOUR 2025 IN SHINAGAWA VOL. 1”, 17/05/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX
335 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Yuki Aino defeated Ivy Steele with the Venus DDT (6:37).
2. Pom Harajuku defeated Chika Nanase with the Pom de Justice (6:49).
3. Maki Itoh defeated Uta Takami with the Itoh Deluxe (10:57).
4. Yuki Kamifuku & Raku defeated Rika Tatsumi & Haruna Neko when Kamifuku pinned Neko with the Famouser (9:27).
5. Mizuki, Wakana Uehara & Mifu Ashida defeated Miu Watanabe, Mahiro Kiryu & Kira Summer when Mizuki pinned Summer with the Diving Foot Stomp (10:08).
6. Shoko Nakajima & Kaya Toribami defeated Yuki Arai & Moka Miyamoto when Toribami pinned Miyamoto with the Sento Choryu (11:30).
7. Yoshiko Hasegawa, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Suzume, Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro when Hasegawa submitted Kazashiro with the Muffler Hold (13:00).

Yoshiko Hasegawa said she was able to win the main event thanks to the wrestlers she was teaming with. But next time she will have to fight alone when she challenges Suzume for the International Princess Title. That match happens on 31st May at Shino Suzuki’s homecoming show so she told her they have both have to win there. She wants to see her juniors live selfishly like she is right now. HIMAWARI later said she wants to keep winning too so she can challenge for the IP Title again. Backstage Suzume said she could feel the sincerity coming from Hasegawa and it is firing her up for the title match.

The four year anniversary of Kaya Toribami’s pro wrestling debut is coming up soon. She was introduced to Tokyo Joshi Pro by Shoko Nakajima and while she had fun wrestling on the undercards, she never considered herself as someone who could challenge her seniors for championships. But recently her feelings about that changed and she now wants to have a passionate title match with Nakajima where she can fight her heart out! Nakajima asked which of her two championships does Toribami want to fight her for and she picked the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title because she wants a singles match with Nakajima in particular. Nakajima said she understands Toribami’s abilities better than anyone and then explained she needs this championship to keep going back to America. The title is also a magical belt that can make dreams come true. It can transform a small Japanese girl into a giant monster that can shock the world! Toribami understood and promised to go beyond her potential to try and take it from her. The title match will take place on 7th June, the first day of Toribami’s fifth year as a pro wrestler. Backstage Nakajima approved of what Toribami did today because she normally doesn’t stand out much. She thinks it would do Toribami some good if she stood out more.

The new ring announcer and replacement for Sayuri Namba was properly introduced to everybody for the first time after being revealed on a Youtube video yesterday. Rise Shirai will begin her new role on the 24th May show acting as Namba’s apprentice for one month. The apprenticeship will last up until Namba’s graduation in June.

Tokyo Shinjuku Takashimaya 1st Floor JR Exit Special Venue

It’s approaching that time of the year when DDT continues to establish a promotional show at Shinjuku Takashimaya to attract shoppers to the building. It is a short show but there will be little segments going on in between the matches. One of them will be a talk event with Saki Akai as the special guest.

DDT “THAT’S RIGHT! LET’S GO TO BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025”, 03/06/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Referee Daisuke Kiso 15th Anniversary Match ~Special 6-Man Tag Match~: MAZADA, Minoru Fujta & Yoshiko Hasegawa Vs Yasu Urano, Akito & Shoko Nakajima

For 15 years Daisuke Kiso has been doing his best to officiate the chaos and nonsense that happens in DDT and Tokyo Joshi Pro rings. To celebrate he is gathering together six wrestlers who all mean a lot to him in some way for a 6-Man Tag Match. According to Kiso, MAZADA taught him the foundations of the wrestling world while Minoru Fujita once faced him in them middle of the crossroads between wrestling and life. Yasu Urano has already pointed him down the right path and Akito has been incredibly helpful to him ever since they started working together. Since TJPW means so much to him too he picked Shoko Nakajima to be in the match because she always puts her life on the line for the company. Last but not least he wants to be a part of Yoshiko Hasegawa’s retirement road and do everything he can to help her even if it’s just this little bit.

DDT “MY LOVE LETTER 2025”, 07/06/2025
Tokyo Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club eX

1. Antonio Honda 20th Anniversary Match ~ Special Single Match: Daisuke Sasaki Vs Antonio Honda

Another important milestone happening this year is Antonio Honda’s 20th anniversary. Chris Brookes asked him if he wanted to do an entire show to celebrate it. Honda considered it would be suitable for a Baka Gaijin + Friends sized show but he doesn’t have the desire to run an event himself. Brookes then asked Honda who he would like his opponent to be and he answered maybe Daisuke Sasaki. Word eventually made its way to DDT and they went and booked the match just for him. He is grateful for it.

DDT “D GENERATIONS 3 ~ACCELERATING BATTLE, UNSTOPPABLE AMBITION~”, 12/06/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuya Koroku
2. Special Tag Match: Shigehiro Irie & Shota Vs Takeshi Masada & Kazuma Sumi

So far the D GENERATIONS shows have seen the home side getting beaten and humiliated by the Young Communication wrestlers. For the third show the Young Generation are now thinking about taking the entire series over for themselves. Can’t blame Shota, Shigehiro Irie and Keisuke Ishii for acting that way if Takeshi Masada, Kazuma Sumi and Yuya Koroku can’t beat them.

DDT “EARLY SUMMER BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1” Results

May 13, 2025

DDT “EARLY SUMMER BEER GARDEN PRO WRESTLING 2025 – DAY 1”, 13/05/2025
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage
??? Fans

1. 3 Way Match – Submission Rules Only: Kazusada Higuchi defeated KANON and Yuya Koroku when Higuchi submitted Koroku with a Katahajime (8:11).
2. Thank You Toru Owashi ~Toru Owashi 20th Anniversary Of DDT Participation Series Vol. 1~ Lucha Libre Rules: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & Ilusion defeated Toru Owashi, Soma Takao & Sumicaras when Okatani pinned Sumicaras with a School Boy (10:19).
3. Jun Akiyama & Antonio Honda defeated HARASHIMA & Kazuki Hirata when Honda pinned Hirata after the Exploder Suplex from Akiyama (9:54).
4. Danshoku Dieno Produce Match ~ Woof Woof Paradise: Danshoku Dieno (w/ Haku) Vs Shunma Katsumata (w/ Ponta & Komachi) Vs Yuki Kamifuku (w/ Zac) Vs Yoshiko Hasegawa (w/ Qoo) ended in a No Contest (18:39).
5. Special Tag Match: Chris Brookes & Yuki Ueno defeated To-y & Takeshi Masada when Ueno pinned To-y with the WR (22:35).
-. Danshoku Dieno Produce Match ~ Woof Woof Paradise Insurance Match: Haku, Ponta, Komachi, Zac & Qoo defeated Akito and Yukio Naya when Naya awakened his love for animals (59:40).

A much needed break from King Of DDT begins this week so the time was right to visit the Beer Garden along with some cute critters. Danshoku Dieno came up with an idea to have a match between a bunch of dog owners so they could all bring their pets to the ring. So it ended up being him, Shunma Katsumata, Yuki Kamifuku and Yoshiko Hasegawa all taking part with their beloved pets running alongside them. Dieno had the foresight to realize the wrestlers would be so preoccupied with minding their dogs at ringside that they wouldn’t actually be able to actually wrestle. So Akito and Yukio Naya were booked to have a match of their own taking place at the same time. The problem with that is they wrestled too close to the dogs which could have frightened the dogs and also blocked the fans from seeing the actual stars of the show. Hisaya Imabayashi complained to them about it on the microphone and ordered Akito and Naya to have their match first out of the ring and then backstage away from the dogs. That ended Part 1 of the match.

Part 2 took place after the main event when Akito and Naya returned to ringside, still fighting each other. By this point they had been fighting for nearly an hour. The other wrestlers with their dogs returned to the ring and Dieno asked Naya to hold Haku for him. Naya couldn’t believe how cute Haku was and he burst into tears before collapsing onto his back. The other dogs Ponta, Komachi, Zac & Qoo gathered around Naya while Imabayashi explained to him just how precious their lives are. Naya understood and apologised for caring more about his match than for the dogs. The bell then rang to end the match now that Naya discovered his new love for animals.

Kazuma Sumi decided to wrestle his match wearing a plastic bag over his head with the Dos Caras mask design drawn over it. DAMNATION T.A unmasked “Sumicaras” and choked him with the bag.

Kazusada Higuchi wrestled the Submission Match wearing a Judo outfit. Yuya Koroku had KANON in the Modified Triangle Lancer when Higuchi grabbed him in a Katahajime and forced him to give up.

DDT “DRAMATIC DREAMS! VOL. 12 ~GIVE IT TO THE CLOUDS THE MOUNTAIN CUCKOO~”, 17/05/2025

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SAYURI NAMBA’S DREAM COME TRUE SPECIAL”, 14/06/2025
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Special Rounds Match: Kazuki Hirata Vs Hideki “Shrek” Sekine
2. LEONA Vs Antonio Honda
3. Mizuki & Suzume (w/ Sayuri Namba) Vs X & X

This will not be your normal Tokyo Joshi Pro show. Sayuri Namba’s in charge before she leaves the company and she is using her powers to do things she always wanted but never got the chance to. One is to do the ring announcements for a LEONA match because the two have known each other going back to their university days. LEONA’s opponent has now been chosen and it is Antonio Honda.

Another thing Namba wants is to be a ring girl one more time. TJPW doesn’t really do round based combat sports so after some out of the box thinking the company decided to make Kazuki Hirata fight against the jacked up hybrid fighter Hideki “Shrek” Sekine. He will become maybe the most unlikley looking wrestler to ever get booked by TJPW. He also doesn’t know who Hirata is but will be happy to beat him up. Is Hirata even going to last past the first round?
