5. Natsumi Maki defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Backlash (7:01).
6. Yuka Sakazaki, Nodoka Tenma & Yuki Aino defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa & Mirai Maiumi when Aino pinned Maiumi with the Venus DDT (15:44).
Yuki Aino challenged Yuka Sakazaki for the Princess Of Princess Title after the main event. She explained she thought progress would come slowly but she recently learned in pro wrestling you have to be sudden. So she wants to test her strength against the champion for the belt. Suddenly Yuki Kamifuku Dropkicked Aino and grabbed the microphone. She wants to challenge Sakazaki first. Sakazaki said she is happy to see so many girls in Tokyo Joshi Pro aiming to become the champion. But Aino and Kamifuku will have to fight each other to get the next shot. Their match will happen on 4th July at Ryogoku KFC Hall.
Natsumi Maki had her first match back in three months, winning against Mahiro Kiryu. She wants to wrestle matches that will give her enough energy to challenge for any of the three Tokyo Joshi championships. She also tried to paint “Poi” on her cheek but used a mirror so it ended up looking like “109”. It’s something a little different she wanted to do now she is back.
In a preview of their Princess Tag Team Titles match, Maki Itoh & Raku were on the winning side against the champions. Itoh shouted threats to Daydream afterwards. Pom Harajuku had to pull her away from them.
The Backspin Kick Miyu Yamashita uses to great effect is now called the Skull Kick. She used it to pin Hyper Misao to ended their tag match in under a minute. Misao’s plan was to make Yamashita dance to “Genghis Khan” and it worked until Yamashita kicked her. They agreed to an immediate rematch. This time Misao blinded Yamashita with cold spray and stole the win with La Magistral Cradle.
TJPW trainee Aona will have her debut match on the 23rd July Korakuen Hall show. She was originally supposed to have her match on 3rd May before the show was cancelled.

Three teams entered the Chateau Amoeba Studio looking for Money In The Bag but only one would leave with it. At least that was supposed to be the plan. HARASHIMA, Konosuke Takeshita and Danshoku Dieno each captained a team and met up outside the studio. There they were met by CyberZ president and DDT director Takehiro Yamauchi along with comedian Shinji Saito. They explained the Money In The Bag was hidden somewhere inside the building but they also hired teams of hunters to protect it. If a team loses a match to the hunters they would be eliminated from the competition.
The first match took place on the 1st Floor. This is where DDT records episodes of TheNight on ABEBA. Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Makoto Oishi entered the room and found out Shinya Aoki was recording his own episode of TheNight with Sanshiro Takagi & Keigo Nakamura as his guests. There was a bag behind them but they attacked Dieno’s team to start the first match. The two teams fought out to the hallway where Dieno’s backside was sprayed with disinfectant. The fight then went through the studio where AbemaMix Friday was broadcasting a hip hop set. They went back to TheNight where Nakamura knocked out Dieno with a High Kick. Dieno slumped over the desk with his backside hanging out and Oishi threw Nakamura face first into him. Oishi then Cradled Nakamura for the three count. Dieno’s team grabbed the bag but found out it only contained signed copies of Takagi’s autobiography.
DISASTER BOX went to the 2nd Floor Basement where they found a sign on the dressing room door with “I Have A Bag” written on it. They went inside and saw a bag hanging from the ceiling. But Saito sprung three hunters on them! MAO, Mizuki Watase & Yukio Naya appeared for the 2nd match. Naya took out a mat covered in massage stones and his team removed HARASHIMA’s boots. HARASHIMA’s exposed feet hurt when he ran on the mat so he couldn’t do the Somato. Yuki Ueno found a pair of padded slippers that HARASHIMA could wear for protection. The plan worked and HARASHIMA hit Naya with the Somato to win. Naomi Yoshimura propped HARASHIMA up to grab the bag but they only contained sponges.
Over at the 4th Floor, ALL OUT bumped into Hisaya Imabayashi and found a bag hanging near the 7 Star Stage. When Takeshita went to get it he was ambushed by Gota Ihashi. Takeshita swatted him aside and went to climb it again only for Kazusada Higuchi & Yukio Sakaguchi to appear for the next match. They fought through the studios where Midnight Bicycle Race and Shogi Battle Commentary were being recorded. The ABEMA staff told the wrestlers to get out so the match moved back out to the hall. Ihashi tried to hold one of the staff hostage but she ran away. Ihashi chased after her with a traffic cone and Akito came to the rescue, taking the cone to his stomach to protect the woman. Ihashi was then accidentally hit with the God’s Right Knee from Sakaguchi when it was meant to hit Takeshita. Higuchi tried to step in but Takeshita gave him a Brainbuster onto Ihashi. Takeshita pinned Ihashi then went to get the bag but Shunma Katsumata told him Akito was unconscious. ALL OUT are down a man but on the bright side they found a mysterious map inside the bag. Where would it lead them?
Back to Dieno’s team. They were still on the 1st Floor and walked in on two Tokyo Joshi Pro teams getting ready for a photoshoot. The Magical Sugar Rabbits and Pink Ready were arguing over who the shoot was supposed to be for. Dieno suggested they should wrestle for it. MagiRabi shoved Pink Ready onto some chairs and spun them around the room. Yuka Sakazaki found a fire extinguisher and sprayed it over Mina Shirakawa, freezing her face. The teams then fought over to the Reception Area where Shirakawa gave Mizuki the Romero Special on top of the reception desk while Yuki Kamifuku held Sakazaki in a Headscissors beside them. Back in the studio Dieno & Sasadango got caught up in the action. They got mixed up with Pink Ready, allowing MagiRabi to climb a nearby ladder and dive onto everyone below for the win. They told Dieno the bag he’s looking for is on the 5th Floor then went on to have their photoshoot.
Up Dieno’s team went to the 5th Floor. They found a bag but it was being guarded by Saki Sukeban, Yoshiko & Seigo Tachibana. These three were raring for a fight too. Saki attacked Oishi with her bamboo sword. Dieno tried to get on Yoshiko’s good side by wanting to film a TikTok video with her. Tachibana cycled into the room and placed his bike on a table. He spun the wheels on the spot so Saki could press Sasadango’s unmasked head into it. Yoshiko hit Sasadango with a Lariat then pinned him with a Running Senton. Dieno’s team were eliminated from the competition.
In the 3rd Floor, ALL OUT found DAMNATION drinking loads and loads of sake on their own. They also found a bag hanging above them. When Daisuke Sasaki found out about the contest he wanted to take it for himself. An impromptu Ladder Match broke out. Tetsuya Endo tried to climb the ladder but HARASHIMA pulled down the back of his shorts to stop him. Ueno tried to climb but Soma Takao did the same to him. Yoshimura Power Bombed Sasaki onto a table. HARASHIMA missed the Somato on Sasaki and landed on a chair, sliding himself away in the process. He turned this into a good idea by sliding the chair into his opponents. Endo threw Ueno onto the rest of DISASTER BOX, allowing Sasaki to climb the ladder and take the bag. Sasaki found 3,000 yen inside. Turns out it wasn’t the right bag, it in fact belonged to Hisaya Imabayashi. Whatever, DAMNATION went off to spend the money on more alcohol. DISASTER BOX lost the match so they were eliminated.
That left ALL OUT as the last team remaining. Katsumata was now in his Super Hardcore form. They also replaced Akito with Yuki Iino. The map brought ALL OUT over to Shibuya HARLEM where Saito was waiting for them. At last the remaining elite contestants had arrived for the final battle. The real bag was nearby but to get it they needed to win a Current Blast Death Match! Out came Atsushi Onita and the NEO Itoh Respect Army as the final hunters. Onita put Katsumata through a table with a Piledriver then fought with Iino inside a restroom. Maki Itoh knocked Takeshita off a ladder with a Headbutt. She then switched on the current for the blast bat. Takeshita grabbed the bat and swung it at Itoh but Chris Brookes jumped in to shield her and take the blast! Onita found another blast bat and hit Katsumata with it at full swing. He pinned him afterwards to win the match and eliminate ALL OUT.
Saito walked out feeling victorious. None of the teams could beat his challenge. However Onita then started to attack Saito, blaming him for never doing a Current Blast Deathmatch in Yoshimoto like he promised the last time they were together. Onita told him the next time they meet it should be in a pro wrestling match!

Yuka Sakazaki was taken off the show because she had a mild fever on the day of the show. She did recover in time to compete but was stayed at home as a safety precaution. The competition became an even 10 Vs 10 series instead of the planned 11 Vs 10 handicap.

Team Blue: Hyper Misao, Yuna Manase, Hikari Noa, Yuki Kamifuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori
A three team battle determined by costume colours was the theme for today’s dojo show. Tetsuya Koda kept the card a mystery outside of match formats until the start of the show. Shota announced each of the matches then revealed the prize for the winning team was tickets to Asakusa Hanayashiki, Japan’s oldest amusement park.
First up was Maki Itoh representing Team Red against Team Blue’s Sena Shiori. Itoh caught Shiori with a DDT off the ropes for the win. Itoh wants to stop wrestling in the dojo because nobody is there to answer her question “Who is the cutest in the world?”
Team Yellow then had their first match and got their first points when Rika Tatsumi beat Mina Shirakawa. Tatsumi tried to trap Shirakawa in the ring apron so she would get counted out but she made it back in at 19. Tatsumi countered the Implant DDT with the Twist Of Fate. She then got the three count with the Missile Hip.
Team Yellow continued their winning ways when Natsumi Maki beat Mahiro Kiryu. Maki pulled Kiryu’s hair to break out of a Crab Hold and did not let go until she was given a Spinebuster. Kiryu ran to the ropes but was caught in the Backlash to suffer another defeat for Team Blue.
Then it was time for something different. The 3 Way Match took place under 5 Rounds lasting 2 minutes each. Every wrestler would begin the match with 3 points. They lose 1 point if they are pinned for a 2 Count or if they submit. From the 2nd Round onward they can lose 1 point if they perform a banned action decided by a Twitter poll. Only the referee knows what the banned action is. The match ends when either all 5 rounds are done or if one wrestler is reduced to 0 points. The winner is whoever has the most points when the match ends. Hyper Misao and Pom Harajuku teamed up to pin Miyu Yamashita for a 2 Count. Yamashita then pinned Harajuku when she Body Slammed Misao on top of her. In Round 2 the banned action was “Speaking English”. Misao lost a point when she called for the Hero Correction System. She didn’t understand why she was penalised until the rule was revealed at the end of the round. In Round 3, Irish Whips off the ropes were illegal. Yamashita lost a point when she whipped Misao off the ropes. The banned move for Round 4 was never revealed because the match ended here. Harajuku lost a point for Irishi Whipping Yamashita off the ropes. Misao tried to strangle Yamashita with her cloak but Yamashita wrapped the cloak over Misao’s head and then kicked her with a High Kick. Yamashita went for the Attitude Adjustment but Harajuku suddenly rolled her over with a School Boy to take away Yamashita’s last point. The match ended and even though Harajuku got the final pin, Misao had one more point than her so she was the winner!
The show went back to normal with the tag match. Okay except for the part where Yuna Manase & Hikari Noa force fed Nodoka Tenma a banana. Noa pinned Suzume with the Uranage to give Team Blue a two match winning streak.
Mirai Maiumi wore similar makeup and clothing as Yuki Kamifuku so they could match together as a team. Shoko Nakajima purposely rubbed the makeup off Maiumi’s face while they wrestled. Kamifuku got revenge by drawing on her opponent’s faces with lipstick. In the end, Nakajima pinned Maiumi with the Northern Lights Suplex. She and Miu Watanabe laughed at each other’s messy faces after the match. Shota said they both looked like Princess Mononoke.
With Team Blue out of the running, the main event was down to Team Red and Team Yellow. Raku got rid of Mizuki, leaving Yuka Sakazaki to fight Yuki Aino. The two scrambled between the Magical Merry-Go-Round and the Venus DDT. Sakazaki took down Aino with a Low-Lying Lariat then hit the Magical Magical Girl Splash to make Team Yellow the overall winners!
The victory ceremony went a little off the rails. Tatsumi wanted to give her theme park pass to Mizuki. Sakazaki attacked Mizuki and suddenly everyone started fighting! Tatsumi yelled that the last ones standing would win the prize as the show finished. Team Yellow eventually got their prize back.

Today was Tokyo Joshi Pro’s turn to enter the Ochanomizu Dojo. A one day Haru Beautiful tournament featured 21 wrestlers all battling for a prize meal ticket provided by the show sponsor. The different set up allowed the winners to make comments to Shota at the commentary table after match.
The 1st Round had 2 Count Fall rules with a 5 minute time limit. Already the change in scenery had an effect on some of the girls. Maki Itoh was upset that the Cutest Knuckle Punch In The World on Suzume got no response in the empty room.
Rika Tatsumi was scared of Pom Harajuku constantly ambushing her with sneaky Low Kicks. She avoided the Pom do Justice, hit a Hip Attack and pinned Harajuku with the Twist Of Fate.
Hyper Misao blinded Mirai Maiumi with cold spray then brought in a training dummy to trick Maiumi into thinking it was her. Maiumi gave the dummy the Back Drop but was then rolled up by Misao for the 2 count. Misao called it a dignified victory to mark the beginning of her 5th anniversary in wrestling.
Miu Watanabe was intimidated by the 2 Count rules because she has never been in that kind of match before. So she submitted Haruna Neko with the Canadian Backbreaker instead.
Mizuki tried to wedge Nodoka Tenma between the ring and the wall so she would get stuck and counted out. Tenma struggled herself free and reversed a cradle to win. She said nothing is going to stop her from winning the meal ticket!
Natsumi Maki’s love of lamb meat is greater than Sena Shiori’s. That was what motivated Maki to beat her opponent.
Raku versus Yuna Manase was the only 1st Round match to reach the time limit. Manase appreciated Raku taking her on the Good Night Express because it gave her a chance to take a quick nap. When the time limit expired, Manase won a game of Rock Paper Scissors to advance to the next round.
Miyu Yamashita got her 2 Count revenge on Mahiro Kiryu. Two weeks ago Kiryu pinned Yamashita in a 2 Count Tag Match at a Tokyo Joshi fan club show. Yamashita celebrated avenging that loss by doing her old Genghis Khan dance because the show is sponsored by Genghis Khan Kirishima.
Round 2 had 5 women entering the tournament without competing in the opening round. The advantage of not wrestling a previous match worked out for most of them. Shoko Nakajima countered the Itoh Special into a Cradle to win her match. Afterwards she claimed that Itoh’s head is growing bigger every year.
Yuki Kamifuku brought along her pet dog Zac to support her since there was no audience. She would reach over and pet Zac to break out of Misao’s holds. Zac would be carried into the ring and Kamifuku dropped her guard to protect him. Misao took advantage and pinned Kamifuku with a School Boy while Zac was still in Kamifuku’s arms.
Mina Shirakawa tired Tenma out by making her run the ropes over and over. She countered the Killswitch into a Samson Clutch for the win. Afterwards she said Tenma has grown too big lately so it is a good thing she is not going to win more food. That’s how thoughtful Shirakawa is of other people. When she wins, she wins for everyone!
Hikari Noa used the Figure 4 Rotating Foot Clutch (Death By Roll-Up) that everyone has been using lately to pin Manase. Noa said that she won because Manase was impatient. She learned that from watching Manase’s earlier match with Raku.
Yuki Aino scored the biggest upset of the tournament by pinning Yamashita with the Side Suplex. The result is even more amazing given that this was their first singles match together.
It was then on to the Quarter Finals. Tatsumi Vs Nakajima went to a time limit draw. Nakajima won the game of Rock Paper Scissors by using Paper to beat Rock. Tatsumi tried to convince the ref she used Scissors but he didn’t fall for it.
It was by this point that Misao began to run out of tricks. Using the ropes for leverage and unmasking herself for a distraction didn’t work. Watanabe caught her with the Tear Drop to advance to the semi finals.
Shirakawa needed Rock Paper Scissors to advance past Maki. She claims that she has never won that game before in her life until today. But that means she used up all of her luck and she would have to rely on her abilities for the semi final.
The little rivalry between Noa and Aino was reignited in the last Quarter Final. Aino continued her momentum by winning with the Venus DDT. She used the move to counter the Cobra Twist.
Now it’s down to the final four. Nakajima Vs Watanabe lasted 5 minutes but this time sudden death consisted of the match restarting with 1 Count Falls in effect. Nakajima quickly pinned Watanabe with a Crucifix Pin to advance to the final.
Joining her in the final is Aino! She avoided Shirakawa’s Spinning Backfists and took her down with a Bulldog Headlock. The Venus DDT again gave Aino the victory.
Sadly for Aino her Cinderella run in the tournament did not get a happy ending. The final was increased to a 10 minute time limit which gave Nakajima and Aino more space to spread their wings. Aino kept going for the Venus DDT but Nakajima had counters for them. Nakajima hit the Northern Lights Suplex but a bad posture meant the move didn’t get her the pin. Nakajima had a backup plan in place. She gave Aino a Double Arm DDT and then the Diving Senton, winning the match and the Haru Beautiful tournament!
Nakajima was happy to win the tournament because she was supposed to be challenging Thunder Rosa for the International Princess Title today. It’s still a very happy day for her and she promises she won’t lose yet!
Tetsuya Koda announced that another Tokyo Joshi empty dojo show will be held on 8th March. He presented Nakajima with the prize meal ticket but Nakajima talked him into giving one to Aino too as a reward for her performance today. Yamashita joked that if everyone danced then Koda will bring everyone to go eat at Genghis Khan Kirishima. Everyone danced to bring the show to an end.
