Miyu Yamashita and KANNA tearfully hugged each other after what is now their final match against each other. Yamashita said she will feel lonely when KANNA graduates from Tokyo Joshi Pro next month. They knew each other for three years and seven months, Yamashita will remember that time as a gift. KANNA said she envied Yamashita for having the “sparkly belt”. In her time here she wanted to be a strong and cool girl. Even though she is leaving she thinks she can use what she learned to become stronger and cooler.

Yuu was happy to wrestle against Shoko Nakajima again for the first time since the Tokyo Princess Cup final. However she was disappointed not to win the match, slowing down her momentum before her title match.

Both Nonoko and Yuka Sakazaki requested for pieces of watermelon to be left in the ring for their match. A special rule was put in place that nobody could attack their opponent before they finished eating their watermelon. Daisuke Kiso joined in but almost choked on his piece. When that was done the match went back to normal and Sakazaki got the upset win. She dodged the Pai Fly Flow and gave Nonoko and Arm Screw followed by the Magical Girl Splash.

6. Tokyo Princess Cup – Final: Yuu defeated Shoko Nakajima with the Cross Armbreaker (17:12).

The winner of this year’s Tokyo Princess Cup is Yuu! No, not you. Yuu! She’s only been wrestling in Tokyo Joshi Pro for 8 months but in that time Yuu has been undefeated and nobody has been able to match her skill. Akane Miura offered a challenge in the semi-final with her power based offence but Yuu choked her out with the Katahajime to win. In the other semi-final Hyper Misao took on last year’s winner Shoko Nakajima. Misao wanted the match to have a One Count Pinfall rule so she could save her energy for the final. The rule was rejected and Misao was told to continue the match when she pinned Nakajima for one second. Misao’s recent streak of upset wins ended here and Nakajima went on to the final. Yuu kicked out of the Northern Lights Suplex and wore down Nakajima until she tapped from a Cross Armbreaker. Yuu said becoming a pro wrestler is a dream come true but now she has a new dream. She asked Miyu Yamashita for a TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title shot. Yamashita accepted the challenge and set the match for 22nd September.

Yamashita has another target in her sights. She’s interested in fighting Reika Saiki one on one. Saiki herself thinks she has found a rival in Yamashita.

Summer time was the theme of Match #4. Each girl took part in the match while wearing yukatas. They also each brought out a weapon that is related to summer vacations. Rika Tatsumi had a beach volleyball, Yuka Sakazaki had a water ring, Nonoko had a watermelon and KANNA carried a water pistol. After the match KANNA announced she will graduate from Tokyo Joshi on 22nd September. She will have one more match with Miyu Yamashita on 31st August. She also invited Saki Akai and Ai Shimizu to attend her graduation ceremony.

Maho Kurone is the newest wrestler to debut for Tokyo Joshi. She wears a black costume to go along with her name. She has no sports history but wanted to join Tokyo Joshi when she saw their show at last year’s Beer Garden series. Nodoka-oneesan tried to beat her with the Back Flip but Kuron escaped and hit a Swinging Reverse Neckbreaker to win her debut match. Kuron didn’t feel quite happy afterwards but thinks people will enjoy her personality. She said she wants to fight Akane Miura sometime.

Hyper Misao’s string of upsets continued with a victory over KANNA. Yuu ignored Azusa Takigawa’s new costume and instead made her submit.

A lottery took place to determine the Semi-Finals. Yuu will face Miura and Misao takes on Nakajima. Yuu said she respects Miura as her senior but she will hit with full force to win. Misao is thrilled to be in the final four and thinks it is her fate to win the tournament. Miura is not going to let her winning streak go to waste. Nakajima’s goal is to be the first 2-time tournament winner.

5. Tokyo Princess Cup – Round 1: Hyper Misao defeated Miyu Yamashita with the I Am A Hero (11:05).

The big story coming out of the first round is Hyper Misao beating Miyu Yamashita in a massive upset. At one point during the match Misao was accidentally unmasked when she escaped from a Headlock. To show how serious she took the match, Misao refused to take the mask back and continued to wrestle with her face exposed. She kicked out of the Attitude Adjustment and got the surprise three count with a Diving Cross Body. Misao now faces KANNA in Round 2.

In another upset, Akane Miura defeated her tag team partner and first Tokyo Princess Cup winner Nonoko. The decisive moment of the match was Miura countering the Boinmaker with a Power Slam. A Lariat after that ended the match. Miura’s 2nd Round opponent is Rika Tatsumi.

For the fourth time in their short careers, Yuu and Nodoka Onee-san wrestled each other and for the fourth time Yuu won. Nodoka is upset that she is lagging so far behind in progress from Yuu and that she is constantly losing to her. Yuu faces Azusa Takigawa in Round 2.

Yuka Sakazaki will be against her Fighting Comedians tag partner Shoko Nakajima in the next round. Although she lost, Marika Kobashi thinks she is doing enough training necessary to be good. She thinks she just needs to become stronger.

5. TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title: Miyu Yamashita (c) defeated Yuka Sakazaki with a Cradle (15:19).
*V2 for Miyu Yamashita.

In her second TOKYO Princess Of Princess Title defence Miyu Yamashita went up against Yuka Sakazaki. The challenger has been riding a wave of momentum heading into the match thanks to her Osaekomi Backslide. This time Yamashita had the move scouted and countered it with a Buzzsaw Kick. With that risk removed Yamashita was able to beat Sakazaki. Yamashita says she wants to fight more strong challengers so she can grow as the champion.

Hyper Misao described the 3 Way Match as a Hero Introductory Test for both Akane Miura and Yuu. She was hoping to find an “ally of justice” and declined to take part because she should not lay her super powered hands on members of the general public. It turned out to be a trick and she tried to get involved only to get knocked aside by her opponents.

The day before this show took place Erin announced she was resigning from Tokyo Joshi Pro. She has been regularly kept out of action with a foot injury. An early return from the first injury only made things worse for her. Another setback happened recently which was when she decided to quit. Erin feels heartbroken over the decision but realises that she is unable to continue wrestling. She thanked the fans for supporting her in the last two years and apologised that it had to end this way.

5. Shoko Nakajima & Yuka Sakazaki defeated Miyu Yamashita & KANNA when Sakazaki pinned Yamashita with the Osaekomi Backslide (11:15).

The Osaekomi Backslide is quickly becoming an unbeatable finishing move for Yuka Sakazaki. She’s now pinned the Princess Champion with it! Sakazako countered Miyu Yamashita’s German Suplex into a Samson Clutch and then turned that into the Backslide for the win. Sakazaki challenged Yamashita to a title match. Yamashita agreed and the match is set for the next Yokohama show on 28th May.

Yuu’s unbeaten streak has taken it’s biggest victory yet when the rookie submitted Nonoko. Yuu countered the Boinemaker into a Cross Armbreaker for the victory. With a win over a Tokyo Princess Cup winner in the bag Yuu is hoping to fight more of the senior Tokyo Joshi wrestlers.

Before the opening match began Nodoka-oneesan wanted to dance to the song “Ping-Pong Pan Taisou”. Azusa Takigawa said dancing is exhausting so she wouldn’t allow it. She told Nodoka her dancing was why she hadn’t won a match yet. Nodoka proved her wrong and earned her first ever victory when she pinned Takigawa with the Back Flip.
