GANBARE☆PRO “SPY GAME 2026”, 05/09/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

2. Keisuke Ishii defeated Shota Kawakami with the Kneel Kick (9:50).
3. Shinichiro Tominaga, Masashi Takeda & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Shigehiro Irie, Takuya Wada & YuuRI when Takeda pinned YuuRI with the U-Crush (12:10).
4. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match Part 3: Yumehito Imanari defeated Ken Ohka with the Lariat (14:03).
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu (c) defeated Moeka Haruhi & Rydeen Hagane when Katsumura submitted Haruhi with the Ninja Choke (18:03).
*V1 for Sussun Katsun.

There was plenty of support for Moeka Haruhi inside Shin-Kiba 1st RING this evening. She received a bouquet from members of the Kofu Chamber of Commerce and Industry Youth Division before the main event. When Rydeen Hagane was tagged in early, Shuichiro Katsumura tried luring her into a grappling contest by lying on his back. He abandoned the strategy when the plan wasn’t opening up and opportunity for him to win. In fact, Hagane turned out to be a lot for Katsumura & Yuya Susumu to handle because they struggled to keep her down. They were finally able to get rid of her and wear down Haruhi with big moves so Katsumura could submit her with the Ninja Choke for a successful Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles defence.

After the match, Katsumura said that it does not matter in Ganbare☆Pro if you are a man or a woman. The GanPro ring is where strong, hard working people rise to the top. Sussun Katsun will now wait for their next challengers and they welcome Hagane to challenge them as many times as she wants. Haruhi echoed those sentiments backstage where she told reporters there is no glass ceiling in GanPro. Anyone whether they are male or female can challenge for championships here if they have the qualifications. Back in the ring, the champs promoted Susumu’s big match in FREEDOMS tomorrow where he will fight for the King Of FREEDOM Jr. Heavyweight Title. Susumu promised to take the spirit of GanPro with him so he can win that championship. Mizuki Watase then got into the ring. He is also on tomorrow’s FREEDOMS show where he will be defending the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title against Jun Kasai! He encourages everyone in GanPro to go take over FREEDOMS.

The third match held this year to celebrate Ken Ohka’s 25th Anniversary took place today. Yumehito Imanari is fed up of these matches getting booked and although he won the match, he wasn’t able to beat the idea out of Ohka. After the match he told Ohka it is a pro wrestler’s job to work hard and find reasons to fight. Using anniversaries as a crutch this much defeats that purpose. Somebody had to call Ohka out on it so Imanari took it upon himself to do it. From now on he will call out anyone in GanPro for saying something stupid otherwise GanPro isn’t going to make it! He already heard rumours that Ohka wants to have matches for his 25th Anniversary and also for his 50th birthday next year. If these kind of matches are here to stay then Imanari will book one of his own on 22nd September to celebrate his 41st birthday! And unlike Ohka, he’s come up with a good reason for it to happen too. He wants to win the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title on his birthday! Since Watase has the title match against Kasai happening tomorrow, Michiyoshi Mishima told Imanari he will wait until he gets the result of that match before he decides to grant Imanari a title shot on his birthday. Meanwhile Ohka did not learn his lesson and had already booked a fourth match to celebrate his 25th Anniversary later this year! He is going to face HARASHIMA on 31st October at GanPro’s next Korkauen Hall event.

Continuing the anniversary talk, it’s been just over a year since Sentaro Motoshima had his debut match. He fought Watase one on one in the opener and fell to Watase’s Elbow Butt. Watase told him after the match he did not hold back against him in order to show what the difference is between them right now. He looks forward to seeing Motoshima reach the point where he can challenge for the Spirit Of Ganbare Title. Motoshima must learn what didn’t work for him against Watase today and use that knowledge to climb up to the top.

Some regional conflict popped up again after the show. Ohka rallied up members of Team Toyama after the show to make plans for GanPro’s trip Yokohama on 22nd September. Katsumura interrupted their meeting on behalf of the Naka Ward Association and promised to gather his own wrestlers to fight Team Toyama at that show.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAAHUBALI 2026” Results

July 25, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “BAAHUBALI 2026”, 25/07/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Toyama Army Vs Anti-Toyama Army: Ken Ohka, Akira Shoji, Shinichiro Tominaga & Leon defeated Yumehito Imanari, Sentaro Motoshima, Moeka Haruhi & Rydeen Hagane when Ohka pinned Haruhi with the Flame Spear (10:40).
2. YuuRI defeated Echika Miyabi with a Camel Clutch Sleeper Hold (11:13).
3. Tyson Maeguchi defeated Shuichiro Katsumura by Referee Stoppage after a Knee Strike (11:31).
4. Takuya Wada defeated Yuya Susumu by Referee Stoppage with a Triangle Choke (12:20).
5. Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao defeated Mizuki Watase, Shota Kawakami & SUSHI when Irie pinned Kawakami with a Lariat (19:24).

The Team Dream Futures reunion was a successful one after they defeated Mizuki Watase’s side. Shigehiro Irie doesn’t want to spend much time in the past however. He hears from fans so often that they used to watch him a lot or they used to like him. Irie wants to show everyone that right now he is alive and well in the wrestling world. He will prove it by winning the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title from Watase at Korakuen Hall on 15th August. Watase then brought up all the times he travelled with Irie around the world from America to Germany. He believes Irie is still the best wrestler he knows which is why he wants to defend the title against him. He does not want to hear any talk about injuries or surgeries from either side from now until the match has ended. Instead he told Irie they should show everyone the best 15th August ever!

Both preview matches for the 15th August Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles bout ended in Referee Stoppages. Tyson Maeguchi knocked out Shuichiro Katsumura after catching him with a Knee Strike while Takuya Wada held Yuya Susumu in a Triangle Choke until the referee had to step in. Katsumura has no memory of how his match ended but he thinks he won while Susumu claims he had Wada pinned in a Cradle for the three count before he passed out in the Triangle Choke. The Deadlock couldn’t help but laugh when they heard that both of their opponents thought they had won. They think next time they should beat them in a way that they will still remember afterwards.

The finish to the opening match happened after Rydeen Hagane accidentally hit Moeka Haruhi with a Lariat, leading to Ken Ohka pinned Haruhi with the Flame Spear afterward. When Haruhi recovered she got into a fight with Hagane after the match and the two blamed each other for losing. Ohka broke things up and decided a match between Haruhi and Hagane will happen at the 15th August Korakuen show.

At the end of the show Ohka revealed his partners for the 6-Man Tag Match on 15th August. His first partner is going to be Akira Shoji but before he could announce his second, Shinichiro Tominaga walked in and complained about not being chosen. He asked why and Ohka said it is because the other partner will be Masashi Takeda! According to Ohka, Masada is allowed to join the Toyama Army because his father is from Toyama and he also spent many summer vacations in the area when he was a student. SUSHI then appeared asking to be booked for the show but Ohka rejected him. Luckily for SUSHI, he later got the booking anyway and he will be part of the undercard at Korakuen.

The wrestlers from Nariagari have been chosen for the dark match. I recognize a few of those names from previous appearances. Couldn’t tell you what they’ve accomplished since then though.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’26”, 18/07/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Momo Sato Debut Match: Uta Takami & Ren Konatsu Vs Shion Kanzaki & Momo Sato

8. Princess Tag Team Titles: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi (c) Vs Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
9. Princess Of Princess Title: Yuki Arai (c) Vs Miyu Yamashita

We have a mystery on our hands. Mizuki is taking on an unknown opponent who is only being advertised as “Sweet Secret“. If that name by itself is a clue then it’s the only one we’ve got so far.

One of the undercard tag matches is following up on a few things from earlier this year. MIRAI & Toga are teaming up again for a match against Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed. That means it’s another meeting between MIRAI and Haru Kazashiro after their really good singles match last month.

The debut of Momo Sato sees her getting thrown into the ring with the three other shortest term wrestlers in Tokyo Joshi Pro at the moment.

BASARA “BASARA 312 ~UTAGE~”, 24/07/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Takeru Inoue Vs Ali Najima
2. FUMA Vs SAGAT
3. Ryota Nakatsu Vs Thanomsak Toba
4. Daiki Shimomura & Kota Sekifuda Vs Lil’ Kraken & Yuki Kanzaki
5. Isami Kodaka, Yuko Miyamoto & Shuji Ishikawa Vs Takumi Tsukamoto, Takato Nakano & Masato Kamino

This is the go-home show before BASARA heads back to Korakuen Hall next month. Champions and challengers all mixing it up with each other is the name of the game in the main event. Shuji Ishikawa is teaming with Yankee Two Kenju given all of their history together while Takumi Tsukamoto is joining up with Aijin Tag.

GANBARE☆PRO “BAAHUBALI 2026”, 25/07/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. YuuRI Vs Echika Miyabi
2. Toyama Army Vs Anti-Toyama Army: Ken Ohka, Akira Shoji, Shinichiro Tominaga & Leon Vs Yumehito Imanari, Sentaro Motoshima, Moeka Haruhi & Rydeen Hagane
3. Takuya Wada Vs Yuya Susumu
4. Tyson Maeguchi Vs Shuichiro Katsumura
5. Mizuki Watase, Shota Kawakami & X Vs Keisuke Ishii, Shigehiro Irie & Soma Takao

The 6-Man Tag Match was supposed to have Munetatsu Nakamura in it but unfortunately he injured his right knee at the Ganbare☆Pro show over the weekend. He has since been diagnosed with a ruptured ACL and will be out of action for the time being.

A sudden civil war over the Toyama region is now turning into a little inter-promotional match with PURE-J. After the last GanPro show Ken Ohka declined to include Yumehito Imanari into his Toyama based group of wrestlers so Imanari went and formed his own Anti-Toyama team with Sentaro Motoshima & Moeka Haruhi both agreeing to join him. Rydeen Hagane from PURE-J fills out his group. Ohka has bolstered up his forces by bringing in Akira Shoji & Shinichiro Tominaga as well as PURE-J’s Leon.

GANBARE☆PRO “IT’S A SUMMER FILM 2026”, 15/08/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. YuuRI Vs Takumi Iroha
2. Munetatsu Nakamura Vs Chris Brookes
3. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi (c) Vs Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu
4. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) Vs Shigehiro Irie

Pray for Mizuki Watase to come out of the match in one piece. The last time Shigehiro Irie fought for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title he lost to Imanari but still beat him up bad enough that he was left in rough shape for weeks afterward. Now Watase wants to defend the title against his good friend even though Irie is kind of feeling like he’s past his peak. Maybe for Watase’s physical sake let’s hope that is the case.

Shuichiro Katsumura once held the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles with Takuya Wada. Now he is trying to win them off him. Yuya Susumu is getting his first crack at winning a GanPro championship and maybe he can get it if Tyson Maeguchi is feeling a little punch drunk by the time the match takes place.

No word yet on if Nakamura’s match with Chris Brookes will be cancelled because of his knee injury. There is currently no timeframe for his return.

It’s time again for YuuRI to try and take down one of her idols. Takumi Iroha is her next big name joshi opponent.

SUPER JAPAN “SHINJUKU FACE COUNTDOWN SERIES ~GOODBYE SHINJUKU FACE~”, 28/09/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Satoshi Kojima

Previously DDT had this date booked but it is now going to be a Super Japan show. It will be a special one because it is happening two days before Shinjuku FACE closes down for good. Headlining this important show will be a battle pitting Super Japan against New Japan. Where else could Yuji Nagata against Satoshi Kojima ever be put together?!?

GANBARE☆PRO “ENTER THE VOID 2026” Results

July 4, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “ENTER THE VOID 2026”, 04/07/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
166 Fans

1. Moeka Haruhi defeated Mia with a Double Wrist Armsault (7:27).
2. Shigehiro Irie, YuuRI & Shota Kawakami defeated Yumehito Imanari, Shinichiro Tominaga & Sentaro Motoshima when Kawakami pinned Motoshima with a Northern Lights Suplex (11:18).
3. Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated Keisuke Ishii & Kouki Iwasaki when Katsumura submitted Ishii with a Flying Armbar (14:39).
4. Baliyan Akki defeated Munetatsu Nakamura by Referee Stoppage (3:02).
5. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi (c) defeated Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima when Maeguchi pinned Ohka with a Buzzsaw Kick (14:13).
*V2 for The Deadlock.
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) defeated SUSHI with the Bare Elbow (15:00).
*V4 for Mizuki Watase.

The Ganbare☆Pro management can breathe a little sigh of relief because Mizuki Watase was able to beat SUSHI and remain the Spirit Of Ganbare World Champion. After the match Michiyoshi Mishima approached Watase asking him who he wants to defend the title against at the 15th August Korakuen Hall show. Watase started talking about when he wanted to leave DDT there was one person he talked to first and this person assured he will help him get bookings if none were to come his way. Watase is currently the champion of GanPro but he wants to feel like the challenger so his opponent is going to be Shigehiro Irie! It turned out Irie was already in the venue and he got into the ring. He admitted he is not as strong as Watase thinks he is right now but he doesn’t want to make excuses over it anymore. The two shook hands (both using their left because its closer to the heart) and confirmed the title match will go ahead.

The Deadlock passed their second Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Titles defence by beating Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima. Their next challengers quickly emerged when Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu came out demanding a title shot. Mishima accepted the demand and booked the match for 15th August.

Match #4 had to be abruptly stopped when Munetatsu Nakamura injured his knee after he did a Plancha onto Baliyan Akki. The injury was bad enough at the time that he had to be stretchered off and sent straight to the hospital. Akki tried to keep the audience’s spirits up in the meantime by calling Nakamura a strong wrestler who will definitely return from this setback. GanPro sent out an update that the early examinations have shown no bone damage and they are now awaiting a more detailed diagnosis. Nakamura will be out of action in the meantime.

Yuna Manase was at the show and greeted the fans. She had successful surgery for ovarian cysts and uterine fibroids and was discharged from hospital last week. During her speech she expressed her gratitude for everyone’s support during this time.

At the end of the show Ken Ohka brought up an idea to expand his team of Toyama based wrestlers. Yumehito Imanari asked if he could join because he is friends with Ohka’s father and would often stay over at his home. However Ohka declined his request which made Imanari explode in anger. Now he is going to form his own Anti-Toyama team to get revenge on Ken and his dad!

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026” Results

April 29, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall
588 Fans

1. PSYCHO, Choun Shiryu & Yuya Susumu defeated Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima when PSYCHO pinned Motoshima with the High Fly Bomb (9:57).
2. Ram Kaichow defeated Moeka Haruhi with the Onryo Clutch (6:55).
3. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ryota Nakatsu & Masaaki Mochizuki defeated Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima when Nakatsu pinned Ohka with a Spinning Leg Lock (10:32).
4. Akira Shoji & Hideki “Shrek” Sekine defeated Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura when Shoji pinned Katsumura with the Modified Jackhammer (13:33).
5. Utami Hayashihita defeated YuuRI with the Crusade (13:22).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles: Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga (c) when Wada pinned Imanari with the Assault Point (13:46).
*Touchable fails in V3. Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi become the 6th Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Champions!
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Keisuke Ishii with a Vertical Drop Brainbuster (22:07).
*V2 for Mizuki Watase.

In a rematch from three years ago, Mizuki Watase again defeated Keisuke Ishii to defend the Spirit Of Ganbare World. He was lucky to get out of there in one piece though. The match took so much out of both champion and challenger that Watase needed help being walked to the back afterwards. He felt fulfilled none the less, saying there is nothing in the world with the kind of nourishment that pro wrestling has. He is determined to turn Ganbare☆Pro into a huge wrestling company and lead the way. He also said he loves Ishii and believes today should put away any thoughts Ishii has of retiring from wrestling. Ishii said he felt annoyed over losing yet another Korakuen Hall main event. However he could feel his confidence growing throughout the match and will fight Watase head to head again some day. He promised to work hard to get into the condition needed to not only headline Korakuen Hall but win a main event there too after eight failed times at trying.

The Spirit Of Ganbare World Tag Team Titles changed hands with two former champions now regaining the gold. Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi both held the belts before but with different partners. Today they defeated Touchable after a few close calls. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga almost had Maeguchi taken care of with the 3D. Imanari then hit Wada with the Lariat and Power Bomb but he kicked out from both moves. Wada turned things around and used the Assault Point to pin Imanari for the title change.

Last week Utami Hayashihita caused a stir when she announced she will be leaving her home promotion Marigold next month. Today was her first match since dropping that bombshell, facing YuuRI and beating her with the Crusade (Spinning Razor’s Edge Bomb). Hayashihita told reporters backstage that she is friends with YuuRI and they often drink together. She enjoyed the warm atmosphere of GanPro and is happy to see YuuRI grow in this environment. She compared the GanPro atmosphere to being surrounded by a big family, and she should know what that is like! When asked if she would ever come back here, Hayashihita said she isn’t thinking about the future at the moment, she’s living her present life to the fullest. YuuRI thinks Hayashihita has already decided on where she is going to go next and doesn’t know if they will ever be able to have another singles match together again. She will seize the chance if they can.

Akira Shoji & Hideki Sekine used the music of Pride Fighting Championship theme for their entrance and also their victory themes. When Minoru Suzuki & Shuichiro Katsumura attacked them with chairs at ringside, Suzuki mocked them by asking “What kind of Pride is this, you bastard?” Shoji got the win by using a Modified Jackhammer on Katsumura that he later named the Toyama Black Driver or TBD for short. Sekine said he and Shoji are the strongest pro wrestlers because they are both 52 years old and were born during the peak of Japan’s baby boom. The two of them are also carrying the legacies of Pride and RIZIN and think they can chase after the SOG Tag Titles next.

Ken Ohka cannot believe it’s been 25 years since his debut. He had his first match in the same year when Munetatsu Nakamura, Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motoshima were all born! He doesn’t know what he can realistically contribute to society but he hopes his wrestling can play a part in bringing peace to Japan and across the world. He fought as hard as he could with Guts Ishijima against Ryota Nakatsu & Masaaki Mochizuki but was ultimately rolled up into defeat on this day.

The match between Moeka Haruhi and Ram Kaichow was put together because the two of them both debuted in 2005. Haruhi tried winning by going for roll ups and other cradle moves but Kaichow caught her with the Onryo Clutch to get the three count instead.

In the leadup to the opening match, Nakamura revealed that he would avoid using Suplex type moves because he was coming back from a herniated cervical disc. He lived up to his word but the victory still went to the outsider team of PSYCHO, Choun Shiryu & Yuya Susumu.

Yuna Manase attended the show and gave reporters an update to her current health. She is still recovering from getting surgery on her collarbone two months ago because the bone has not fully healed yet. However her doctor noticed an abnormality in her blood tests and after getting an MRI, it was discovered that Manase has swelling in her ovaries. According to her doctor, the ovaries swelled up to five times the normal size and it was a miracle they did not burst while Manase was wrestling. She is currently waiting on the official diagnosis but she is under the impression that she will need to get another operation done soon. She told this to the reporters in order to get the message across about how important it is to regularly get health checkups. She hopes she can be fully recovered in time for GanPro’s next Korakuen show but it will likely take several more months before she can return to the ring.

GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026” Results

March 28, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026”, 28/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
134 Fans

1. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Keisuke Ishii defeated Yuya Susumu with the Spinning Body Bomb (5:55).
2. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: PSYCHO defeated Shuichiro Katsumura with the Reverse Clover Hold (8:49).
3. 3 Way Match: Moeka Haruhi defeated Taiwan Ramen Man and Hora-chan when Haruhi pinned Ramen Man and Hora-chan with a Double Jackknife Pin (9:10).
4. Mizuki Watase & Shigehiro Irie defeated Shota Kawakami & Sentaro Motojima when Watase submitted Motojima with a Crab Hold (12:54).
5. Rin defeated YuuRI with a Locomotion School Boy (12:06).
6. Yumehito Imanari, Takuya Wada & Tyson Maeguchi defeated Ken Ohka, Shinichiro Tominaga & Akira Shoji when Maeguchi pinned Tominaga with the Ago Shitsurei Itashimasu (15:38).
7. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title Next Challenger Determination – Final: Keisuke Ishii defeated PSYCHO with a Tiger Suplex (12:07).

All this time spent demanding a match with Keisuke Ishii and Yuya Susumu lost to him in under six minutes? Well, Ishii was a man on a mission today because he was determined to become the No. 1 Contender for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title. He was Ganbare☆Pro’s last hope against the outside competition when PSYCHO eliminated Shuichiro Katsumura over on the other side of the bracket. Ishii was able to beat PSYCHO in the final and he joked about the fans and probably even Mizuki Watase were disappointed over the result. However, Watase reminded Ishii of the match they had at Korakuen Hall three years ago. He wants the two of them to surpass it in the same building on 29th April! Ishii said that date is when he is at his absolute best form. Watase thought about what he meant and remembered that is the date when Ishii won the All Asia Tag Team Titles back in 2014!

At the end of Match #6 Tyson Maeguchi came to the realization that he just beat one half of the Spirit Of Ganbare Tag Team Champions and it was thanks to the other half. The finish of the match was Yumehito Imanari hitting Shinichiro Tominaga with a Lariat and then Maeguchi finished off Tominaga with the Flying Knee Kick. Maeguchi decided he should get a title shot against Touchable at the 29th April Korakuen show. Ken Ohka offered to be his tag partner but Maeguchi turned him down to team with Takuya Wada instead. Wada agreed, having already kept his schedule open hoping to get booked on the show. He warned everyone that he didn’t come back to GanPro to be treated like a punching bag again! Michiyoshi Mishima thought over their request and pointed out both Maeguchi and Wada are former tag champions but the physcial belts did not exist when Maeguchi was on the first champion team. Mishima felt the two of them would be perfect opponents for Touchable and agreed to book the match.

Shinjuku FACE Closing Down This Year, Super Japan You’re Confusing Me

March 10, 2026

DDT “ICHIKABACHIKA 2026”, 11/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

0. Dark Match – Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer Vs Rika Tatsumi & Uta Takami
1. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shinya Aoki, Junta Miyawaki & Viento Maligno Vs Chris Brookes, Kota Sekifuda & Hinata Kasai
2. Jun Akiyama & Kazuki Hirata Vs HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
3. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Kazuma Sumi, Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shishamo Power, Unagi Mask & Gota Ihashi Vs Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) Vs Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato

Rumours were swirling around yesterday when a Japanese wrestling blog Kakutolog posted a story about Shinjuku FACE possibly shutting down its doors later this year. Sadly, today the venue’s management confirmed that Shinjuku FACE will be closing down on 30th September when their fixed-term lease with the building expires. To say this is a blow for the Japanese wrestling scene is an understatement given how so many wrestling companies are based in Tokyo and have relied on Shinjuku FACE to put on shows that aren’t on the level of Korakuen Hall but are still easy to access deep in the heart of that city. If Korakuen Hall is where you go to get a heat check on a wrestling company, Shinjuku FACE is where you will experience that company’s status quo. It will have a negative effect on the CyberFight promotions for sure because of how often they’ve booked shows in there over the last 20 years.

Kota Sekifuda has been brought in to take the place of the injured Yuni in Match #1.

4. FUMA & Seiya Morohashi Vs Daichi Kazato & Ayato Yoshida
5. Battle Royal: Ryota Nakatsu Vs Ryuichi Sekine Vs Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi Vs Lil’ Kraken Vs Yasu Urano Vs Shuji Ishikawa

A little change of pace for the next BASARA show. A Battle Royal will take place and with Shuji Ishikawa taking part, the winner could be likely to get a Union MAX Title shot against him in the future. That’s the only reason I see this match happening.

SUPER JAPAN “JUDGEMENT”, 24/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Hiroshi Yamato Vs Gym Trainer Kotoka Vs Ippanjin Munenori Sawa

5. Special Single Match: Yuji Nagata Vs Fuminori Abe
6. Special Single Match: Shinya Aoki Vs Kazunari Murakami
7. Special Single Match: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Poison Sawada JULIE

What in the hell is this lineup? We’re getting a 6-Man Tag Match between “Goro Tsurumi’s Genes” against the “Toryumon Genes”. Evil Uno is teaming up with Ram Kaichow even though there is also Demonio Uno on the show. The Gym Trainer Kotoka is back to fight the ordinary salaryman Munenori Sawa and city council wrestler Hiroshi Yamato. That’s not all, NOSAWA Rongai is now threatening to invade Super Japan with Mummy wrestlers so who know what else is going to happen here. Maybe at the end of the show the fans vote to shut the whole thing down.

GANBARE☆PRO “THERE WILL BE BLOOD 2026”, 28/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING

1. Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Keisuke Ishii Vs Yuya Susumu
2. Next Challenger Determination – Round 1: Shuichiro Katsumura Vs PSYCHO
3. YuuRI Vs Rin
4. Next Challenger Determination – Final: X Vs X

A mini tournament has been put together to decide who will be the next Japanese wrestler to face Mizuki Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title (he wants to defend the belt in America next month). As part of this tournament Yuya Susumu will finally gets his long awaited singles match against Keisuke Ishii. The other side of the bracket sees Shuichiro Katsumura face PSYCHO.

A big month of singles matches lies ahead for YuuRI. She has two important opponents to fight soon, the first of which is Rin (aka Rin Kadokura) as part of Rin’s road to retirement.

DDT “NO SPOILERS EVENT VOL. 4 IN UENO”, 01/04/2026
Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Something With To-y & Kazuki Hirata: To-y Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. Playfulness Series Act 5: Danshoku Dieno Vs Hinata Kasai
3. DAMNATION T.A Vs Fake Daisuke Sasaki Army!: Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Nise Daisuke Sasaki A, Nise Daisuke Sasaki B & Deka Daisuke Sasaki
4. Special 3-Way Tag Match ~ Best Friends (Mav) Superior: MAO & KANON (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Yuki Ueno & Shunma Katsumata Vs Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA

A “No Spoilers” show being held on April Fool’s Day? Actually that might make it easy because nobody will be allowed to post prank results along with the real ones. By the time midnight comes it will be smooth sailing for me to post the results!

By this point Daisuke Sasaki will have started his tour of North America but while he is gone, three fakes of him are going to appear in his place. It will be up to the rest of DAMNATION T.A to deal with them.

GANBARE☆PRO “HATAAGE 13TH ANNIVERSARY – MAD MAX 2026”, 29/04/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashihita
2. Ken Ohka 25th Anniversary Match: Ken Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu

Friends and foes alike will be gathering together to celebrate not only Ganbare☆Pro’s 13th Anniversary but also Ken Ohka’s 25th Anniversary in wrestling as well. He recently beat Guts Ishijima for the TTT Indie Unified Openweight Title but here they will be tag partners. Masaaki Mochizuki returns to GanPro for the first time since losing the SOG Title. Ryota Nakatsu is also coming over from BASARA to take part in Ohka’s match.

The second of YuuRI’s big matches will be against Marigold’s own Utami Hayashihita!

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE 2026” Results

March 7, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE 2026”, 07/03/2026
Shin-Kiba 1st RING
143 Fans

1. Yumehito Imanari defeated Sentaro Motoshima with a Crab Hold (10:23).
2. Ken Ohka, Akira Shoji & Shin Suzuki defeated Choun Shiryu, Trans-Am ★ Hiroshi & Chika when Shoji pinned Shiryu with the STO (10:13).
3. Shigehiro Irie defeated Shota Kawakami with the AUF DIE FRESSE (12:37).
4. Shoko Nakajima defeated YuuRI with the Northern Lights Suplex (16:18).
5. Shuichiro Katsumura & Yuya Susumu defeated Keisuke Ishii & Shinichiro Tominaga when Susumu submitted Tominaga with the Crossface Lock (11:31).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase (c) defeated Takuya Wada with the Venetian (16:08).
*V1 for Mizuki Watase.

The first title defence is in the bag but it almost could have gone so wrong for Mizuki Watase. He was ready to fight Takuya Wada, “The King Of Pancrase” and didn’t expect he would face Takuya Wada the pro wrestler. Watase kept simulating the match over and over to prepare for today and had the conclusion that as long as he wouldn’t give up to Wada’s submission holds, he would win in the end. That was proven right and he won by pinning Wada with the Venetian.

After the match Shuichiro Katsumura challenged Watase for the Spirit Of Ganbare World Title and the champion said it is a match suitable to headline Korakuen Hall. That comment led to a chain reaction of different wrestlers getting into the ring. Keisuke Ishii said Katsumura was jumping the gun and if anybody deserved to be in a Korakuen title match main event again it is him. Then Yuya Susumu showed up complaining that Ishii should be fighting him next instead of getting a title shot again. PSYCHO also got into the ring to let everyone know he wants the next shot without actually saying anything. Michiyoshi Mishima thought a 4 Way Match should between everyone should determine the No. 1 Contender until someone shouted it should be a tournament instead. Mishima agreed and made a one day tournament for 28th March for the No. 1 Contendership. Ishii and Susumu will finally have their singles match while Katsumura faces PSYCHO. Meanwhile Watase said he wants to go have a title defence over in America before the next Korakuen show happens!

Shigehiro Irie must be missing Germany while the 16 Carat Gold Tournament is happening over there this weekend. He used his AUF DIE FRESSE finisher (holds the opponent’s arm in a Hammerlock behind their head and then knocks them down with an Elbow Butt) to win his match.

Some other matches were made for upcoming GanPro shows. On 28th March YuuRI will face Rin, the former Rin Kadokura who recently returned to wrestling but will be retiring from the business this upcoming May. Ken Ohka also wants to form a Toyama trio with Shinichiro Tominaga & Akira Shoji at that show. Then on 29th April there are two matches booked so far. The first is Ohka & Guts Ishijima Vs Masaaki Mochizuki & Ryota Nakatsu to celebrate Ohka’s 25th Anniversary in wrestling. The other match is YuuRI Vs Utami Hayashishita from Marigold!

Yuni Injured, New Gen Army, Grand Princess ’26 PR Updates

March 3, 2026

DDT “D GENERATIONS 8”, 07/03/2026

5. Special Single Match: To-y Vs Hideki Okatani

Over the weekend Yuni injured his left elbow and he has since been diagnosed with a joint contusion that needs two weeks of rest in order to recover. For that reason Yuni will be missing all of the DDT shows in the first half of March starting with the next D GENERATIONS show. Mikiya Sasaki is replacing him as Ilusion’s new opponent.

Chika is coming over from Pro Wrestling Evolution.

Munetatsu Nakamura is still undergoing rehabilitation for his neck injury. It’s been decided his goal of returning to the ring this month will not happen and he will remain out of action during March. GanPro along with Nakamura’s doctor all want to ensure he is in top condition when he is ready to wrestle again.

DDT “ICHIKABACHIKA 2026”, 11/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

0. Dark Match – Tokyo Joshi Pro Offer Match: Yuki Kamifuku & Kira Summer Vs Rika Tatsumi & Uta Takami
1. Jun Akiyama & Kazuki Hirata Vs HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda
2. Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani, MJ Paul & Ilusion Vs Kazuma Sumi, Naomi Yoshimura, Ryota Nakatsu & Yuki Ishida
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shinya Aoki, Junta Miyawaki & Viento Maligno Vs Chris Brookes, Yuni & Hinata Kasai
4. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shishamo Power, Unagi Mask & Gota Ihashi Vs Yuki Iino, Yukio Naya & Tomomitsu Matsunaga
5. KO-D Tag Team Titles: MAO & KANON (c) (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Danshoku Dieno & Super Sasadango Machine
6. KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles: Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi (c) Vs Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato

A new unit is developing among the D GENERATIONS wrestlers. Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku decided to create a new stable focused on their age group and Daichi Sato agreed to join them. They don’t have a name at the moment so are temporarily being referred to as the New Generation Army. Since they already consist of three people they are going to fight for the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Titles as their first big challenge. Kaisei Takechi is itching to wrestle again sooner than scheduled so he along with Yuki Ueno & To-y are ready to defend their titles next week.

We’re approaching that time of year when DDT holds sponsored matches with the Yamada Suisan seafood company. That means the return of the masked seafood themed wrestlers Shishamo Power and Unagi Mask. The match also sees Yuki Iino return to action after he’s been away training for his American Football team.

A bonus dark match is being provided by Tokyo Joshi Pro. At the time of writing Rika Tatsumi is still the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. Could the belt be going back home to DDT? Not if she has any say in it. Her goal as the champion is to bring the title all the way to TJPW’s Sumo Hall show at the end of the month.

DDT “JUDGEMENT 2026 ~29TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION 5 HOUR SPECIAL~”, 22/03/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Special Single Match ~ Shunma Katsumata Return Match: MAO Vs Shunma Katsumata
2. Dramatic Dream Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Kazuki Hirata (w/ John Robinson)
3. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Hideki Okatani
4. DDT Universal Title: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs Kazuma Sumi
5. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs KANON

If it’s all been fun and games for To-y so far as the DDT Extreme Champion then Hideki Okatani is here to bring an end to it. To-y is gradually approaching the record for most Extreme Title defences in a single reign but Okatani is accusing him of padding out wins by only fighting old washed up wrestlers. To-y argues against that because some of his challengers so far have been from their own generation too.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”, 29/03/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku Kokugikan

1. Mizuki Vs Andreza Giant Panda
2. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro (w/ Super Sentai) Vs Aja Kong, Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku
3. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Hyper Misao & Super Sasadango Machine
4. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Suzume
5. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs Jessie McKay & Cassie Lee
6. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Apparently TJPW went and did it. They struck a deal to have something Super Sentai related to show up at Sumo Hall and be involved with the ToJo Tokusatsu Club’s match. At least I think that is what’s happening. I’m confused because I thought the TV show just ended recently to be replaced with a similar substitute for reasons that involve the studio moving on from a copyright deadlock. I guess we’ll find out at Sumo Hall what the Super Sentai collaboration will look like. Maybe the Tokusatsu Club gets to morph into their own Super Sentai outfits before they go out and fight Pompaler & Aja Kong. Actually they should go full Kaiju Big Battel and have the ring filled with small cardboard buildings for everyone to smash and slam each other on.

The Tokusatsu Club recently completed their “fireball return” training but since fire was absolutely prohibited, they ended up doing batting practice with Tetsu Inada instead. There are updates for some of the other Super Sasadango Machine PR tasks to catch up on. The roster has spent the last few days putting up posters for the show around Tokyo. Minimo-chan has taken up weight training for its debut match. Shino Suzuki is finding more and more influencers to challenge for games of Rock Paper Scissors but has only beaten one opponent so far. She has to keep doing this until she beats two more.

Sasadango has also come up with more challenges for the wrestlers who haven’t been given any tasks yet. He has asked Shion Kanzaki to hold a street performance in the heart of Shinjuku. Meanwhile Miyu Yamashita was told to take on intensive idol training.

GANBARE☆PRO “A SCANNER DARKLY 2026” Results

February 22, 2026

GANBARE☆PRO “A SCANNER DARKLY 2026”, 22/02/2026
Tokyo Takashimadaira Kumin Center
187 Fans

1. Reiya Igarashi defeated Sentaro Motoshima with a Fisherman Suplex (9:13).
2. 3 Way Match: Moeka Haruhi defeated Papillon Akemi and Hora-chan when Haruhi pinned Akemi with the Ojosama Clutch (8:23).
3. Takuya Wada & PSYCHO defeated Ken Ohka & Shota Kawakami when Wada submitted Kawakami with the Armbar (13:25).
4. Shuichiro Katsumura, Yuya Susumu & YuuRI defeated Akira Shoji, Tyson Maeguchi & Chanyota when Susumu submitted Maeguchi with the Crossface Lock (13:10).
5. Yumehito Imanari & Shinichiro Tominaga defeated Keisuke Ishii & Choun Shiryu when Tomingaga pinned Shiryu with the Wine Hamon Overdrive (13:27).
6. Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Title: Mizuki Watase defeated Masaaki Mochizuki (c) with the Bare Elbow (18:10).
*Masaaki Mochizuki fails in V6. Mizuki Watase becomes the 10th Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion!

The reign of Masaaki Mochizuki has come to an end. Mizuki Watase is now a two time Spirit Of Ganbare World Champion! He took an early advantage when during a fight outside the ring, Mochizuki missed a kick and his leg made contact with the corner post. While that didn’t stop Mochizuki from throwing kicks, Watase taunted him by saying he will stand and take the blows until the leg breaks! Mochizuki went on to Middle Kick him 19 times before giving him the Twister but it only got him a two count. Watase went to use the Venetian but Mochizuki escaped and hit the Shin Saikyou High Kick. However Watase wasn’t knocked down by it and he hit back with an Elbow Strike followed by the Bare Elbow Strike, pinning Mochizuki down to the mat to get the pin and become champion again.

Watase was too beaten up to start talking immediately after the match so he allowed Mochizuki to speak first. Mochizuki said its been 10 months since his first match in Ganbare☆Pro and 6 months since he became the SOG Champion. He thanked the fans for cheering him on despite being an outsider and he values the enjoyable experience he’s had here. He though he would have held the SOG Title for the rest of his career but instead his mission ended today. He then wrapped the title belt around Watase and Watase thanked him for being a strong wall that made all of the GanPro wrestlers grow by fighting him. Watase told Michiyoshi Mishima he’s going to cause some trouble because he is booked for a death match in America this April (does he mean the Death Vegas Invitacional?) and he will bring the belt with him. But as long as he is here, GanPro will never die! All of the wrestlers celebrating him left the ring to end the show but Takuya Wada was the last one to get out. He made a signal to Watase that he wants to challenge him for the title.

Yuya Susumi returned to GanPro looking to get his singles match with Keisuke Ishii. He got the winning submission in his match then reappeared after Ishii’s match to confront him over the potential singles bout.
