DDT “SANSHIRO TAKAGI VS MICHAEL NAKAZAWA ROJO SPECIAL ONE MATCH BOX OFFICE”, 15/03/2022 Tokyo
1. Falls Count Anywhere Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Michael Nakazawa
The ambush Michael Nakazawa pulled on Sanshiro Takagi during the week has left the DDT boss fuming. They are still going to have their match at Sumo Hall but before that they will now have a Falls Count Anywhere match! It is a special one match event taking place somewhere in Tokyo that will be recorded for Youtube.

MUSCLE “HIRAGANA MUSCLE 6 -SHIMOKITA ONE PLUS ONE-”, 29/03/2021 Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
The next Hiragana Muscle event is a series of five shows taking place across three days starting on 29th March. These shows are celebrating the 18th Anniversary of the original MUSCLE event from 2004. That’s not all. The K-I (Kai) Grand Prix will be brought back for the first time in 17 years with a total of 48 contestants taking part in a one day tournament. Since every Muscle show is a virtually identical performance per episode that means Muscle is running an entire 48-Man tournament five times in three days. But since this is Muscle that also means a lot of nonsense and shenanigans will be going on to derail everything. Nothing ever goes right when this promotion organizes a tournament. They still haven’t finished their New Year Tag Festival from 2009.
DDT “MEGA MAX BUMP 2022 TOUR IN YOKOHAMA”, 01/05/2022 Yokohama Budokan
1. KO-D Openweight Title: Konosuke Takeshita (c) Vs X
Pro wrestler and actor AKIRA will be at the show wrestling in DDT for the first time in his 37 year career (he did MUSCLE before but not DDT proper). He doesn’t do as many standard pro wrestling appearances as he used to but is still active in the ring as part of the MAKAI musicals.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2022 WINTER ~OSAKA PERFORMANCE~”, 26/02/2022 Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall 164 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Suzume defeated Kaya Toribami with the Ring A Bell (7:15).
2. Nao Kakuta defeated Haruna Neko with the Shiden Kai (7:51).
3. Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Raku & Pom Harajuku when Itoh submitted Harajuku with the Itoh Punish (11:09).
4. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto defeated Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu when Watanabe pinned Kiryu with the Tear Drop (12:36).
5. Miyu Yamashita & Marika Kobashi defeated Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo when Yamashita pinned Endo with the Skull Kick (10:05).
6. Yuka Sakazaki Vs Mizuki defeated Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino when Sakazaki pinned Tenma after the Toy Story 4 (15:10).
This is the last Tokyo Joshi Pro show in Osaka to feature both Nodoka Tenma and Marika Kobashi. Tenma got to wrestle The Magical Sugar Rabbits and had nothing but kind words to say about them afterwards. Tenma is an older sister but she thinks TJPW has many “older sister” types on the roster that took care of her and Yuki Aino in many ways. Tenma wants the fans in Osaka to know that TJPW without Tenma and Kobashi will still be amazing so please go and see the show again.
Miyu Yamashita made sure to work hard in order to make up for lost time while she was out sick. Kobashi said she loves Osaka so much she went to the Amerikamura area to recharge before her match.
Maki Itoh also kept herself busy while she was in isolation. She tried making pasta using the ingredients sent to her from the care package sent by the Japanese government for covid patients. Itoh burned the pasta because she used a frying pan to cook it. She still ate it all so the taxes that paid for it wouldn’t be wasted.
TJPW will hold a show at Osaka Edion Arena #2 on 5th May. It will be their first show at the venue since September 2019. It will also be Yuki Arai’s first match in Osaka.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2022 WINTER ~OSAKA PERFORMANCE~”, 26/02/2022 Osaka Azalea Taisho Hall

2. Maki Itoh & Yuki Kamifuku Vs Raku & Pom Harajuku

4. Miyu Yamashita & Marika Kobashi Vs Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo
5. Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Mahiro Kiryu Vs Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto
6. Yuka Sakazaki Vs Mizuki Vs Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino
It’s the final showdown between The Magical Sugar Rabbits and The Bakuretsu Sisters!
Miyu Yamashita and Maki Itoh are both cleared and back in action. Yamashita gets to team with Marika Kobashi again, although I think their original team name JK Strikers is a bit out of date at this point. Itoh teams with Yuki Kamifuku, showing that they are still friends after their International Princess Title match earlier this month.
DDT “ULTIMATE TAG LEAGUE 2022 THE FINAL!!”, 27/02/2022 Tokyo Korakuen Hall
-. Ultimate Tag League 2022 – A Block: Kazusada Higuchi & Hideki Okatani (2) Vs Shuji Kondo & Kazuki Hirata (0) is a Double Forfeit.
0. Dark Match: Yusuke Okada Vs Yuki Ishida
0. Dark Match: Danshoku “Dandy” Dieno Vs Hiroshi Yamato

2. Ultimate Tag League 2022 – B Block: Chris Brookes & Masahiro Takanashi (2) Vs Shunma Katsumata & MAO (2)

4. Ultimate Tag League 2022 – A Block: Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno (4) Vs Tetsuya Endo & Jun Akiyama (6)
5. Daisuke Sasaki, Minoru Fujita & MJ Paul Vs Yuji Hino, Akito & Yukio Naya
6. Special Tag Match: Yukio Sakaguchi & Saki Akai Vs Sanshiro Takagi & Maya Yukihi
7. KO-D Tag Team Titles – Ultimate Tag League 2022 – Final : Winners Of Block A Vs Winners Of Block B
The final block matches for the Ultimate Tag League tell two different stories. In the A Block BURNING only needs a tie to advance to the final. However if The 37KAMIINA beats them, then Konosuke Takeshita & Yuki Ueno advance because of the head to head rule. DISASTER BOX versus Pheromones needs to have a winner otherwise the B Block can get complicated. A time limit draw leads to a restart because the teams get one point each and tie in first without a head to head tiebreaker. Real chaos can happen if the match ends in a Double DQ, Double Countout or No Contest because no points are awarded to anyone. That can possibly create a 3 Way or 4 Way tie with DAMNATION T.A and whoever wins between ShunMao and CDK. Normally we do not have to worry about that scenario happening but Pheromones are involved. Their entire thing is ruining matches without caring about winning or losing. They can now ruin the entire tournament if they want to!
Unfortunately two more wrestlers have been pulled from the show. Toui Kojima tested positive for covid while Antonio Honda has been under poor physical condition. In Honda’s case he tested negative so he might just be feeling ill this week. The dark matches have been changed with their removal alongside Toru Owashi and Soma Takao getting bumped up to the opening match with Shuji Kondo and Kazusada Higuchi.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TJPW MIDWINTER POOL WRESTLING ON WRESTLE UNIVERSE”, 28/02/2022 Tokyo Sumida Sports Health Center Pool
1. 5 Way Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe Vs Hyper Misao & Nodoka Tenma Vs Hikari Noa & Yuki Arai Vs Marika Kobashi & Raku
Pro wrestling matches at swimming pools have been done before by DDT. Now it is Tokyo Joshi Pro’s turn to try it out. The match has already been recorded and will be shown for the first time on WRESTLE UNIVERSE this Monday, so for now I’m using the broadcast date for the match record. Five teams will be against each other but some special rules will be included so it may not be just one match with every team all against each other at once.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’22”, 19/03/2022 Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan
1. Juria Nagano Debut Match: Juria Nagano Vs X
2. Sanshiro Takagi Vs Hyper Misao
3. Nodoka Tenma Vs Yuki Aino

5. International Princess Title: Maki Itoh (c) Vs Yuki Arai
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki (c) Vs Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima
Nodoka Tenma and Yuki Aino will have their first and only singles match against each other at Sumo Hall. A match between The Bakuretsu Sisters was often pitched over the years but Aino never liked the idea. Tenma wants the match to finally happen because she will be graduating from wrestling soon. This time Aino agree to the match because Tenma helped make her who she is today.
Getting a match against the crazy company president should be top of the list of things Hyper Misao would like to do. However she wasn’t happy to find out she will be fighting Sanshiro Takagi. He’s become too old and boring for her wacky ideas. Takagi warned her that he is just as crazy in the ring as he always was so she better be ready to eat her words!
Juria Nagano seems to be training with Yuka Sakazaki and Mizuki if her latest TikTok is anything to go by.
The complete match line-up will be revealed tomorrow. The show will have ten matches in total.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2022 WINTER”, 23/02/2022 Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall 202 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Hikari Noa & Kaya Toribami when Kamifuku pinned Toribami with the Famouser (9:10).
2. 3 Way Match: Suzume defeated Haruna Neko and Moka Miyamoto when Suzume pinned Neko with a Jackknife Pin (9:52).
3. Hyper Misao defeated Marika Kobashi with the Hypami Returns (10:51).
4. Shoko Nakajima, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Raku, Pom Harajuku & Yuki Arai when Aino pinned Harajuku after the Bakuretsu Bulldog (14:40).
5. Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Nao Kakuta defeated Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Arisu Endo when Tatsumi pinned Endo with the Twist Of Fate (16:28).
After the main event Rika Tatsumi told the audience that she and Yuka Sakazaki entered Tokyo Joshi Pro together as classmates. They both went their own directions and each ended up with good tag team partners, Tatsumi with Miu Watanabe and Sakazaki with Mizuki. The two teams will face off at “GRAND PRINCESS ’22” and both teams are promising to win. Daydream want to win the Princess Tag Team Titles at Sumo Hall while The Magical Sugar Rabbits want to defend them in the same place. Backstage Tatsumi said she has learned how inseparable MagiRabi are together so she will hunt down the both of them at Ryogoku!
The Bakuretsu Sisters are going to explode at Sumo Hall! Nodoka Tenma doesn’t want her wrestling career to end before she has a match against her sister. Yuki Aino has always declined the idea whenever someone suggested it but this time Tenma won’t take no for an answer. Aino agreed, saying she made it to where she is today because of Tenma and she now wants to defeat her with all of her strength.
When the show began it was announced that Hyper Misao will take on Sanshiro Takagi at Sumo Hall. When Misao’s match was over, she got on the microphone and admitted she is disappointed that the match is happening. She would have wanted to fight the Takagi she saw eight years ago when she discovered pro wrestling but now he is just an ordinary president who cares more about numbers than doing crazy things. Takagi understands her complaints. He can’t lift one of his shoulders like he used to and he put this match together because he does want to sell more tickets for the show. But he is still a pro wrestler and that pro wrestler will stand in front of Misao at Sumo Hall so she better not regret her words! He promises their match will get crazy even though he also has to wrestle at the DDT show in the same building the next day.
One week before Marika Kobashi graduates from Tokyo Joshi Pro, she will have a starring role at the next “TJPW INSPIRATION” show on 10th April. She gets to team up with her favorite wrestler Abdullah Kobayashi! Their opponents will be Antonio Honda & SAKI.
Misao tried to hold a protest before her match with Kobashi to stop her from graduating. She complained about feeling lonely because people she meets in TJPW keep graduating from the company. Kobashi grabbed her placard sign and attacked her with it.
TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2022 WINTER”, 19/02/2022 Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall 202 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House
1. Mahiro Kiryu defeated Arisu Endo with the Spinebuster (6:42).
2. Pom Harajuku defeated Moka Miyamoto with the Pom de Justice (7:02).
3. Hyper Misao defeated Haruna Neko with the Hypami Returns (8:17).
4. 3 Way Match: Nao Kakuta defeated Yuki Kamifuku and Kaya Toribami when Kakuta pinned Toribami with the Shiden Kai (6:36).
5. Shoko Nakajima defeated Marika Kobashi with the Diving Senton (12:33).
6. Mizuki, Hikari Noa & Yuki Arai Vs Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Suzume ended in a Time Limit Draw (20:00).
There were already several wrestlers missing from the show for covid related reasons today. One more had to pull out on short notice when Yuka Sakazaki was identified as a close contact. Hikari Noa moved up to take her place in the main event and the 17 remaining members of the Tokyo Joshi Pro roster went on with the show.
All six women in the main event fought until the time expired, with Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai against each other being the focus of the final minutes. Mizuki was disappointed over the match result being a tie but said it is times like these when everybody who supports each other should be united. She wants to make TJPW a warm and welcoming place that she loves. The match also motivated her after seeing how much stronger Noa and Arai have become. Backstage Yuki Aino warned that Arai will turn into a dirty fighter if she keeps teaming with the likes of Mizuki & Noa. She at least had fun teaming up with Watanabe and Suzume which doesn’t happen often.
Shoko Nakajima gave Marika Kobashi a pat on the head after their match. They both think this was likely their last singles match against each other with Kobashi leaving in April. Nakajima also felt the match was a good warm up for her upcoming Princess Of Princess Title match. Kobashi feels special for being a singles opponent for both Nakajima and Miyu Yamashita before their big title match. But she doesn’t want her remaining matches to just be about getting stronger. She wants some results to be part of her final memories here.
Noa moving out of Match #4 turned into a 3 Way with the remaining wrestlers. Yuki Kamifuku tried to trick Kaya Toribami into siding with her because it’s her birthday soon. She then got into an argument with Nao Kakuta over it and both of them pushed Toribami away when she tried to step in, causing all three to fight each other.
Hyper Misao decided that to beat a catgirl you must become one. She explained she’s been raising cats for a year so her neko power has increased. So for today only she is Neko Misao, the Cat Of Northern Kanto! Haruna Neko wasn’t impressed and she pulled the cat ears and tail off of her opponent while they wrestled.
