August 25, 2020

BAKUHA KOSHIEN “STREET FIGHT CLUB”, 25/08/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
??? Fans

1. The Mystery Of Laos! Amazing Mecha Pandita First Time Out!: Shunma Katsumata defeated Mecha Pandita with a Diving Body Press (10:36).
2. Gake no Fuchi Joshi Vs Pocchari Joshi Full Face To Face Battle!: Yuna Manase & Yumehito Imanari defeated Miyako Matsumoto & Chris Brookes when Manase pinned Matsumoto with the Suzuki Dynamic (11:41).
3. Hage Torongezu Vs #STRONGHEARTS! – No DQ Match: T-Hawk & El Lindaman defeated Jiro Kuroshio & Seigo Tachibana when Lindaman pinned Tachibana with the German Suplex (12:27).
4. STREET FIGHT CLUB Special Match ~Royal Traditions Match~: Jun Akiyama defeated Yukio Naya with the Exploder Suplex (12:04).
5. Street Fight Scramble Bunkhouse 6-Man Tag Death Match: Atsushi Onita, Yuko Miyamoto & Rocky Kawamura defeated Takashi Sugiura, NOSAWA Rongai & Kaz Hayashi when Onita pinned Rongai with a Chair Attack (15:49).

Normally in a Scramble Bunkhouse, both teams stand in opposite sides of the room, wait for a countdown and then charge down to the ring to grab the weapons first. Atsushi Onita’s team didn’t have the patience for that and he attacked Takashi Sugiura during Sugiura-gun’s entrance. Chairs were whacked over heads, people were thrown into barbed wire boards and NOSAWA Rongai smashed a guitar over Onita’s head. Yuko Miyamoto and Kaz Hayashi briefly brought some athleticism into the match but other than that it was a brawl. Rocky Kawamura got some punches in on Sugiura. In the end, Onita hit NOSAWA with chairshots until NOSAWA couldn’t get back up. After the match, Onita said he might have broken some ribs so he couldn’t do his usual Onita Theatre ending where he spits water into the crowd. That’s the reason along with the Coronavirus. Onita assured everyone he tested negative before the show but he wouldn’t risk passing along the virus that way.

Jun Akiyama was surprised to see the rest of Junretsu standing in Yukio Naya’s corner for their match. Makoto Oishi explained to him it was only for today. Naya got a nearfall with a Running Kneelift. Akiyama hit his own one then lowered his kneepad down before doing it again. Naya was able to kick out but he was done for after the Exploder Suplex.

An electric shaver came into play for Match #3. El Lindaman bought it before the show but it went missing. Seigo Tachibana revealed he snuck into the locker room and stole it from Lindaman’s bag. They demanded the match be made No DQ and threatened to shave each other’s heads. T-Hawk and Jiro Kuroshio did the same when they faced off. Lindaman grabbed the shaver and chased after Yukinori Matsui until the ref gave him a Lariat. Tachibana went to give Lindaman a Back Drop but Tachibana escaped by shaving a straight line through the middle of Tachibana’s hair! When Tachibana figured out what happened he was left in a shocked state. It was easy pickings for Lindaman to pin him with the German Suplex. He shaved off more of Tachibana’s hair after the match.

Chris Brookes created a new double team move called the Holy Diver. It involves picking up Miyako Matsumoto and Crucifix Power Bombing her onto the opponent through a plastic box. They tried it on Yuna Manase but Manase rolled out of the way and Matsumoto crashed through the box on her own. She still had enough fight left to counter the Suzuki Dynamic into a Roll Up but Manase hit the move on the second attempt to win. After the match Yumehito Imanari called Brookes and Matsumoto crazy. He wants both Gake no Fuchi Joshi and Pocchari Joshi to show the world how crazy they are.

The debut of Mecha Pandita shows the robot has plenty of kinks that need to be worked out. Controlled by Onita from the locker room, Pandita tried locking up when Shunma Katsumata was nowhere near it. When Pandita was able to attack properly, Katsumata placed it outside the ring and hoped it would get counted out. Pandita got back in on time and took over. It missed a 450 Splash allowing Katsumata to Body Slam it despite being a heavy robot. Katsumata grabbed a cold spray and climbed the top rope, expecting Pandita to follow him. His guess was right and Katsumata froze Pandita with the cold spray, causing it to fall down to the canvas. Katsumata landed a Diving Body Press and got the three count. Backstage Katsumata said the next time he fights Pandita he will destroy it. And someday he will fight Onita too!

Daisuke Kiso was officiating some of the matches so he is safely out of self-isolation.

6. DDT UNIVERSAL Title – No DQ Match: Chris Brookes (c) Vs Drew Parker

It is Chris Brookes’ 29th birthday today and his best friend Drew Parker got him a Studio Ghibli mug for his present. However Brookes isn’t letting their friendship get in the way of their No DQ Match so he smashed the mug to pieces! They are about to have an important match for the DDT UNIVERSAL Title. It’s more important than their 6 or 7 years of friendship. Parker thinks success in Japan has gone to Brookes’ head.

Tetsuya Endo will announced his official opponent for “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020” on this show. More on this below but he has several candidates in mind. They’re probably all gravure models. If that doesn’t work he is also open to anybody he hasn’t considered yet to make their case.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HONJITSU WA SEITEN NARI 2020”, 12/09/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. POWER OF DREAM Vs Shawn Capture: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ikuto Hidaka
2. GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Ken Ohka, Yumehito Imanari & Miss Mongol (c) Vs Katsuzaki Shunosuke, Moehiko Harumisawa & Washi Sakurai
3. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Asuka (c) Vs Shinichiro Tominaga

The Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title has been saved. The hard work begins now for the new champion Asuka because she already has somebody targeting her. Shinichiro Tominaga is the first challenger and his goal is to be the first Amateur pro wrestler (as in college club wrestling, not actual amateur wrestling) to win the Indy Jr. Title. He’s not afraid to attack from behind or cheap shot his way to victory either, as shown by his win over Ken Ohka and what he did to Asuka after challenging her.

The GWC 6-Man Tag Team Titles were last defended in February when THE HALFEE were a newly formed trio challenging for the titles. Ganpocha-gun defeated them and done nothing with the belts since then. A lot has changed since then and Moeka Haruhi wants her team to get another title shot. If THE HALFEE wins this time then they aim to defend the titles at Korakuen Hall in October.

Kouki Iwasaki and Ikuto Hidaka got into a fight after their tag match on the last show. The singles match is the obvious solution to this.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “BAD COMMUNICATION 2020”, 06/10/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Ganpro Young General Vs Mad Dog Who Came Back!: Kouki Iwasaki Vs Kota Umeda
2. The Fate Of The Stars You Can Meet In Ganpro!: Yuna Manase Vs Takumi Iroha
3. A Burning Bond Or A Bond Thicker Than Blood!: Shinjiro Otani & Yumehito Imanari Vs Keisuke Ishii & Shigehiro Irie

Ganbare☆Wrestling returns to Korakuen Hall to hold their third show in the building. Yumehito Imanari’s current infatuation with ZERO1 results in Shinjiro Otani returning to Ganpro after his match with Imanari last November. This time they’re teaming up against two thirds of the former Team Dream Futures. It looks like Keisuke Ishii is in a slump after losing the Indy World Jr. Title. Shigehiro Irie’s Ganpro appearances have all been him coming and going at his own leisure.

Months ago Yuna Manase tweeted a picture of Takumi Iroha making an entrance, commenting on how cool she looks. Fast forward to now and she will get to wrestle her! They’ve had one singles match against each other and a tag match teaming together over in Stardom but they were way back in 2014. Things are way different with both of them nowadays.

Kota Umeda emerges from the shadows again. He was last seen wrestling in BASARA back in January. He has a lot of history with Kouki Iwasaki when they were in DNA together so it will be fun to see the sparks fly when they fight each other again.

DDT “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”, 03/11/2020
Tokyo Ota Ward Gymnasium

1. Special Tag Match: HarahiMarafuji Vs CimaSoma: HARASHIMA & Naomichi Marufuji Vs CIMA & Soma Takao
2. Special Single Match: Jun Akiyama Vs Konosuke Takeshita
3. KO-D Openweight Title: Tetsuya Endo (c) Vs X

Here is the update to Endo picking Kenny Omega as his next KO-D Openweight Title defence. Omega is unable to enter Japan while the Coronavirus pandemic is happening so the match will not take place at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2020”. When Omega is able to travel to Japan again, that is when Endo Vs Omega will happen in DDT. Until then, Endo has to pick another wrestler to defend the KO-D Title against at Ota Ward Gymnasium in November. As already mentioned above, Endo will pick his opponent on 7th September.

Omega sent a video to Endo responding to the challenge. Omega said Endo is not on the same level as him no matter how much Endo models himself after Omega. He sees that Endo is the top superstar in DDT who got everything he wanted. But Omega has conquered wrestling all over the world. When he goes back to DDT he will be Endo’s teacher again and will give Endo a lesson he will never forget. He will spank Endo until he cries to Konosuke Takeshita, HARASHIMA, Sanshiro Takagi and Yukinori Matsui for help. And when Omega wins the KO-D Title, the fans will thank him for saving DDT from Endo.

Endo gave his response after watching the video. He said Omega hasn’t changed since anything since the time they lived in the same dormitory. Omega’s story isn’t interesting. If he can’t got to Japan then maybe Endo will go to America and quarantine himself for two weeks to make the match happen.

5. HARASHIMA Produce Loser Punishment 5 Way Match – Over The Top Rope Losing Rule: HARASHIMA Vs Toru Owashi Vs Yuki Ueno Vs Naomi Yoshimura Vs Kazuki Hirata
6. Tetsuya Endo Produce Hardcore Tag Match – DAMNATION Vs ALL OUT!: Tetsuya Endo & Nobuhiro Shimatani Vs Konosuke Takeshita & Shunma Katsumata

The main event will be a Hardcore Match. That was Tetsuya Endo’s idea of course. That’s probably weak stuff for Shunma Katsumata after the Big Japan deathmatch he was in last week.

The Beer Garden series will be short and sweet this year.

BASARA “BASARA 130 ~TOKUMARU GAHARA~”, 08/08/2020
Tokyo Takashimadaira Ward Hall

1. Tetsuo Usui Vs Tatsuya Hanami

The main event sees the entire Sento Minzoku unit take on a mixture of Astronauts and the main BASARA roster.

Takumi Tsukamoto was originally supposed to team with Masashi Takeda but Takeda is now unable to participate. He got injured in yesterday’s FREEDOMS main event. Jaki Numazawa from Big Japan takes his place as Tsukamoto’s tag partner.

Tatsuya Hanami is from 2AW.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “HEAVEN’S DOOR 2020”, 22/08/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall

1. Ganpro Vs FREEDOMS All Out Battle!: Washi Sakurai Vs Tomoya Hirata
2. First Single! Toyama’s Strongest Decisive Match!: Ken Ohka Vs Shinichiro Tominaga
3. 6 Men And Women Summer Story! Special Mixed 3 Way Tag Match: Shuichiro Katsumura & Moeka Haruhi Vs Yumehito Imanari & Yuna Manase Vs Shota & HARUKAZE
4. Teacher & Student Tag Vs Aikata Tag: Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki Vs Ikuto Hidaka & Minoru Fujita
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Hagane Shinno (c) Vs Asuka

These might be the final Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title defence if Hagane Shinno gets his way. The new champion is in the twilight of his wrestling career and believes the title no longer serves its use. His peak was beating Kota Ibushi for the belt which means it should only be defended against a wrestler on the same level. Asuka is getting the title match because it was already promised to her when Keisuke Ishii was the champion. If Asuka can beat Shinno and achieve her goal of becoming the youngest ever Indy Jr. Champion, then Shinno will be convinced she can become as big of a superstar as Ibushi.

Yuna Manase is now a full time member of Ganbare☆Wrestling! Two weeks ago she received an invite from Yumehito Imanari to wrestle for them on a regular basis. She couldn’t give an answer then because she had not finished her commitment to Tokyo Joshi Pro. But when she appeared at last Sunday’s show she announced she wants to do more with the group and be part of the Ganpro family.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “KILLER QUEEN 2020” Results

July 26, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “KILLER QUEEN 2020”, 26/07/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
101 Fans

1. Competitive Showdown! SWS Gakusei Wrestling 24th Vs 28th Total Battle: Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Shin Suzuki with a Cobra Clutch (9:42).
2. Summer Cosplay Match Return: Cherry defeated HARUKAZE with the Welcome To Hell (9:44).
3. Ganpro Specialty Special Mixed Tag Match: Shota & Yuna Manase defeated Moeka Haruhi & Washi Sakurai when Shota pinned Sakurai with a Jackknife Pin (10:37).
4. 25 Years Of Confrontation? Special Tag Match: Ken Ohka & Kouki Iwasaki defeated Yasu Urano & Tetsuo Usui when Ohka pinned Usui with the Fire Spear (19:03).
5. Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title: Hagane Shinno defeated Keisuke Ishii (c) with the Ranhei (16:37).
*Keisuke Ishii fails in V8. Hagane Shinno becomes the 30th Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion!

The dominant title reign of Keisuke Ishii is over! Hagane Shinno is the new Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Champion and we may be approaching the the end of the championship! Early in the match Shinno almost got counted out after he struck the ring post. There were some high impact moves on the ring apron like a Diving Body Press from Shinno and the Double Arm Extreme Driver from Ishii. Back in the ring, Shinno avoided the Double Arm Extreme Driver and pinned Ishii with the Ranhei to win the title. Backstage Shinno said he is thinking about sealing the championship. It is a past glory that he finally regained and his wrestling career doesn’t have long left to go so there is no need for the title to continue. However Asuka was promised a title shot against today’s winner on 22nd August so he will give her that match. Shinno said when he beats her, the title will be sealed away until a superstar on the same caliber of Kota Ibushi challenges him. If Asuka does beat him then he thinks she can become a superstar like Ibushi.

After the match Shinno and Madoka bumped fists and both left. Ken Ohka and Yumehito Imanari got into the ring in a panic. They don’t want the Indy World Jr. Title to leave Ganpro! Asuka is supposed to get a title shot on 22nd August but what is Shinno seals the championship before then? That’s the title Imanari has been aiming to win so what will he do now if it gets retired? Ohka offered some advice to calm Imanari down. Life and pro wrestling is a marathon without goals. Even when you win a championship you keep running. Imanari was eliminated from the ZERO1 Tenkaichi tournament yesterday but it is not the end of his wrestling life. He lost yesterday but next time he can win. Imanari promised to do his best and together they shouted “Three, Two, Zero One!” The show ended with “LONESOME RYDER” playing before switching into “BAD COMMUNICATION”.

 

Imanari showed up in the middle of the Mixed Tag Match wearing a referee shirt. He wanted to be the special guest referee like Shawn Michaels was at the FMW 10th Anniversary show. When Daisuke Kiso refused, Imanari knocked him out and took his place as White Shoes Imanari. He counted too slow so Moeka Haruhi threw him away. Imanari swung around Yuna Manase and gave Haruhi a Lariat on the rebound. Manase did her own Lariat to Washi Sakurai and Shota rolled him over for the three count.

Imanari explained he didn’t have a match scheduled in today just in case he advanced in the Tenkaichi so he wanted to officiate a match instead. Ohka then entered the ring and asked Manase if she decided to wrestle for Ganpro on a more regular basis? Manase said she wants to do her best as a pro wrestler. She isn’t going to just make regular appearances, she wants to join the Ganbare☆Wrestling family and wrestle for them all the time! Ohka accepted and welcomed Manase to Ganpro! Everyone celebrated by shouting “Three, Two, Zero One!” while “LONESOME RYDER” played.

In the Summer Cosplay match HARUKAZE wore a bug catcher costume while Cherry wrestled in a yukata. HARUKAZE used her bug catching net as a weapon and also tried to strip Cherry’s Yukata off. She got herself tangled in it. Cherry wore her wrestling gear underneath so she had no fear of being exposed. She applied her Welcome To Hell submission version of the Spring Night Love to get the win.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~” Results

July 23, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “BRAND NEW WRESTLING 4 ~TAKE NOT, BUT GIVE~”, 23/07/2020
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
490 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Moka Miyamoto Debut Match: Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori defeated Moka Miyamaoto & Suzume when Maiumi pinned Miyamoto with a Lariat (8:25).
2. Himawari Unagi Return Match: Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu defeated Himawari Unagi & Haruna Neko when Harajuku pinned Unagi with the Pom do Justice (8:18).
3. Hikari Noa defeated Raku with the Uranage (7:24).
4. Mina Shirakawa defeated Yuki Kamifuku with the GSS (8:20).
5. Yuna Manase Regular Participation Last Match: Miyu Yamashita, Mizuki & Natsumi Maki defeated Yuna Manase, Nodoka Tenma & Maki Itoh when Yamashita pinned Tenma with the Crash Rabbit Heat (16:06).
6. Princess Tag Team Titles: Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe (c) defeated Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao when Tatsumi pinned Misao with the Missile Hip (13:50).
*V3 for Daydream.
7. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuka Sakazaki (c) defeated Yuki Aino with the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro (18:00).
*V3 for Yuka Sakazaki.

The world of Tokyo Joshi Pro is constantly evolving. Yuka Sakazaki proved that by doing a 450 version of the Magical Girl Splash to beat Yuki Aino. Even Sakazaki herself was surprised by how far she flew with that move. She said after the match that she shouldn’t be stagnant in situations like these which is why she used what is now called the Magical Girl Niwatori Yaro. She celebrated in the ring with Mizuki to close out the show. Sakazaki’s next goal is to win the Tokyo Princess Cup so she can continue her title reign without having any further challengers.

Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao pulled out all the stops in their attempt to win the Princess Tag Team Titles. It’s been six months since TJPW was in Korakuen Hall so the two of them wanted to give everyone a fun and exciting pro wrestling match. The most exciting thing they could think of was beating Daydream by any means necessary! Misao used cold spray to blind Miu Watanabe and taped her feet to the corner post so she was left hanging outside the ring. Misao brought out her bicycle and tried to run Watanabe over but Watanabe lifted herself up and Misao crashed into the railing. Nakajima filled the ring with kaiju toys but she was slammed on top of them by Watanabe. She used the Tear Drop on Nakajima, leaving Rika Tatsumi to scoop up the win by hitting Misao with the Missile Hip Attack. The champions agreed it was a really fun match.

Yuna Manase has bid farewell to Tokyo Joshi. She won’t be gone forever but her future lies elsewhere. In the final moments of her match, Manase took a Skull Kick from Miyu Yamashita. There were no hard feelings over it, they hugged after the match. Manase hugged Mizuki and Natsumi Maki too. She said she loved being inside the Tokyo Joshi ring. She will definitely come back again someday and when she does she will be able to fight on a higher level.

Jealousy reared its ugly head within Cat’s Pye, causing Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa to face off in a Gravure Wrestler Showdown. Shirakawa won the match with her Glamorous Strong Style Facebuster. There was a tense moment afterwards when Kamifuku hesitated shaking Shirakawa’s hand. But she did so and and two friends left the ring together. Kamifuku said in a backstage interview that she wants to learn more about pro wrestling now she has been doing it for four years. Shirakawa has been inspired by Jushin Liger but he doesn’t match Kamifuku’s taste. So Kamifuku is going to start watching Shuji Ishikawa matches from All Japan.

The other two thirds of The Up Up Girls had a singles match together. Raku came close to a win with the Doctor Yellow. Hikari Noa hit back with a Lariat and won with the Uranage. The result has only motivated Raku to try even harder for her first singles win.

Himawari Unagi returned to the ring for her first match in nine and a half months. She had a new costume and new entrance music for her comeback match. She reunited with three of the other HiSPC wrestlers, teaming with Haruna Neko to wrestle Pom Harajuku & Mahiro Kiryu. Neko got rid of Kiryu with the Codebreaker but Unagi couldn’t seal the deal. Harajuku hit the Pom do Justice to end Unagi’s return with a loss.

The newest Tokyo Joshi debut is Moka Miyamoto. She majored in Japanese Culture at university which is why she wrestled in a hakama. Suzume was there to help out but most of the match was Miyamoto trying to fight off Mirai Maiumi & Sena Shiori.

There will be 21 women entering this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup. The full list is Yuka Sakazaki, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe, Shoko Nakajima, Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh, Natsumi Maki, Mizuki, Hyper Misao, Nodoka Tenma, Yuki Aino, Hikari Noa, Raku, Yuki Kamifuku, Mina Shirakawa, Haruna Neko, Pom Harajuku, Mahiro Kiryu, Himawari Unagi, Mirai Maiumi and Suzume.

The Tokyo Dome City Hall show will go ahead on 7th November. At the moment they are permitted to set up the venue to 50% capacity.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『 』~” Results

July 18, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『　　　』~”, 18/07/2020
Nagoya City East Sports Center 2nd Stadium
148 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Suzume defeated Sena Shiori with a Diving Body Attack (6:28).
2. 3 Way Match: Mizuki defeated Nodoka Tenma and Mahiro Kiryu when Mizuki pinned Kiryu with the Cutie Special (8:04).
3. Natsumi Maki & Hikari Noa defeated Maki Itoh & Pom Harajuku when Maki pinned Harajuku with the Backlash (10:31).
4. Yuna Manase & Yuki Kamifuku defeated Mina Shirakaw & Mirai Maiumi when Manase pinned Maiumi with a Lariat (9:16).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Miu Watanabe & Haruna Neko when Misao pinned Neko with the I Am A Hero (9:51).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Miyu Yamashita defeated Yuki Aino & Raku when Yamashita pinned Raku with the Skull Kick (11:15).

The Tokyo Joshi Pro roster were happy to wrestle in Nagoya again after an 8 month absence. Miyu Yamashita told the audience they will continue to fight for everyone who comes to see them. Yuka Sakazaki was thankful for Nagoya’s kindness towards the promotion travelling from Tokyo to put this show together.

Sakazaki and Yuki Aino were on even ground in the main event. Sakazaki blocked the UBV while Aino dodged the Magical Girl Splash. Raku got overeager when she did the Diving Brain Chop to Yamashita. She dropped her guard so Yamashita could rush her with kicks and win the match with the Skull Kick.

Miu Watanabe is learning how to handle Hyper Misao’s tricks. But in a twist it’s Shoko Nakajima doing the same things that is throwing Watanabe off. Nakajima sprayed Watanabe in the face with cold spray and applied the Unmanned Local Train Hold between the ropes to hold her in place. That allowed Misao to beat Haruna Neko with the I Am A Hero.

With Yuna Manase going to leave Tokyo Joshi, that means Cat’s Pye will be going away. Tensions between Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa have gotten worse. Inbetween the wrestler there was also some hair pulling and harsher strikes from one to the other. Manase had to play peacemaker after the match when Kamifuku refused to shake Shirakawa’s hand.

Pandemic Boo Boo had a tight match against Maki Itoh & Pom Harajuku. The Pom Du Justice was blocked when Hikari Noa intercepted the move with a mid-air Dropkick to Harajuku. Natsumi Maki did the Neck Screw Hold but Itoh broke the pin with a Falling Headbutt. Maki then pinned Harajuku with the Backlash.

Two Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title matches have been made for the rest of the summer. First up Keisuke Ishii defends against Hagane Shinno, a former champion who pinned him in yesterday’s main event. Shinno’s history with the title was brief but important. As Madoka, he fought Kota Ibushi for the title when it was revived back in 2007. He lost to Ibushi then but won the title from him a year later. Sadly, Madoka was beaten by Makoto Oishi in his first defence and he never won it back. He’s had two attempts since then. This will be his third.

Yuna Manase was offered to regularly wrestle in Ganbare☆Wrestling. She isn’t able to decide yet because she is still working for Tokyo Joshi Pro for another two weeks. But she at least wants to make another appearance. We may find out her future by the time this show takes place.

The 24th and 28th SWS Triple Crown Champions collide when Shinchiro Tominaga faces Shin Suzuki in a battle of Student Wrestling prodigies.

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “CRAZY DIAMOND 2020” Results

July 12, 2020

GANBARE☆WRESTLING “CRAZY DIAMOND 2020”, 12/07/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
110 Fans – Super No Vacancy Full House

1. Washi Sakurai Trial Single Match: Chikara defeated Washi Sakurai with the Saber Chop (8:21).
2. Ganjo-gun Vs PocchaJo-gun Total Battle: Yumehito Imanari, Miss Mongol & Yuna Manase defeated Shunma Katsumata, Moeka Haruhi & HARUKAZE when Manase pinned HARUKAZE with the Suzuki Dynamic (11:53).
3. Special Single Match: Asuka defeated Shinichiro Tominaga with the ASKA FANTASY (10:09).
4. Ganpro Vs RENEGADES: Shigehiro Irie & Mizuki Watase defeated Shota & Kouki Iwasaki when Irie pinned Shota with a Rotating Cradle (12:52).
5. Special Tag Match Full Of Indie Jr. Champions: Shiori Asahi & Hagane Shinno defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shuichiro Katsumura when Shinno pinned Ishii with the Reverse Rankei (16:17).

Keisuke Ishii now has two challengers for the Independent World Jr. Heavyweight Title. Halfway through the show, Asuka challenged Ishii to a title match because she wants to become the youngest champion in the title’s history. Ishii asked for the match to take place on 26th July but Asuka’s busy schedule pushed it back to the agreed date of 22nd August. Then in the main event Hagane Shinno pinned Ishii and asked for a title shot on the 26th July show that Asuka turned down. Ishii accepted that challenge too so he can achieve his 8th and 9th title defences when all is said and done. Asuka told them to do what they want, she will challenge the winner of Ishii Vs Hagane.

Yumehito Imanari invited Yuna Manase to compete in Ganbare☆Wrestling on a regular basis, believing this is the perfect place for her last run. Manase told him she is still with Tokyo Joshi Pro until 23rd July so she cannot agree to regular participation in Ganpro just yet. But she would like to be on the next Ganpro show on the 26th.

Ken Ohka was pulled from the show due to a fever. Shunma Katsumata took his place in Match #2.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『 』~” Results

July 12, 2020

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “TOKYO JOSHI 2020 SUMMER ~TJPW IS 『　　　』~”, 12/07/2020
Tokyo Itabashi Green Hall
108 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Natsumi Maki defeated Sena Shiori with the Backlash (6:42).
2. 3 Way Match: Maki Itoh defeated Haruna Neko and Suzume when Itoh submitted Neko with the Itoh Deluxe (8:34).
3. Yuki Kamifuku & Mina Shirakawa defeated Miyu Yamashita & Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Fame Asser (10:33).
4. Yuna Manase & Hikari Noa defeated Miu Watanabe & Raku when Manase pinned Raku with the Suzuki Dynamic (10:12).
5. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao defeated Rika Tatsumi & Mahiro Kiryu when Misao pinned Kiryu with La Magistral Cradle (12:15).
6. Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki defeated Yuki Aino & Mirai Maiumi when Sakazaki pinned Maiumi with the Magical Girl Splash (14:12).

The main event had Yuka Sakazaki and Yuki Aino squaring off in preparation for Korakuen Hall later this month. Their attention to each other split off to the other wrestlers in the match. Aino gave Mizuki her new UBV finisher then left it to Mirai Maiumi to take care of Sakazaki. That was a fatal mistake because Sakazaki gave Mirai the Magical Merry-Go-Round then pinned her with the Magical Girl Splash. Mizuki admitted to Sakazaki after the match that Aino is dangerous. The Magical Sugar Rabbits have to be even more alert against her.

If Shoko Nakajima is teaming with Hyper Misao then she may as well learn to cheat like her too. During their match they brought Rika Tatsumi over to her cornergirl Miu Watanabe at ringside and taped the two together back to back. Tatsumi had to get back inside the ring with Watanabe taped to her but they were able to cooperate and even use themselves as a weapon. When Daisuke Kiso tried to free Daydream from the tape, Nakajima & Misao used the numbers advantage against Mahiro Kiryu. Misao purposely loosened her mask so Kiryu would pull it off by accident, Nakajima hit Kiryu with the 619 after the distraction and Misao got the pin with La Magistral Cradle.

Yuna Manase thanked the Up Up Girls (Pro Wrestling) for wrestling with her one last time before she ends her regular Tokyo Joshi Pro participation. She got permission from them to give an idol style introduction for the audience and also perform “Upper Kick” with the group. She said her Up Up Girls name would have been Mamamama Manase.

Trouble is brewing with Pink Ready. At the start of the show it was announced Yuki Kamifuku and Mina Shirakawa will have a singles match against each other on 23rd July. They were on opposite sides in a tag match today and Kamifuku won out. Shirakawa told Kamifuku she is determined to win at Korakuen. Kamifuku said she is sorry to see her friend act this way but she won’t lose to her.

Maki Itoh tried to literally sit out of the 3 Way Match by resting on the top turnbuckle. She’s a big star so she would only fight the winner between Haruna Neko and Suzume. Those two got fed up with Itoh’s behaviour and attacked her instead. Itoh blocked Suzume’s Diving Cross Body with a Headbutt then countered Neko’s Codebreaker into the Itoh Deluxe to win.

Nodoka Tenma had to miss the show due to a case of strep throat.
