5. MAX HEART Beyond The Bracket: Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku when Suzume pinned Harajuku with the Ring A Bell (9:01).
6. MAX HEART After The Final: Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara, Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami defeated Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao, Raku & Ren Konatsu when Kamifuku submitted Konatsu with the Shonandai Manji (12:41).

Hyper Misao went all out with her battle plan for the main event before Ober Eats & K!SS// made their entrances. She told Shoko Nakajima to blind Kaya Toribami by placing Raku’s sleep mask over her eyes while she and Raku wrap up Miyu Yamashita in Raku’s blanket. Then Ren Konatsu was told to place along a trail of bread from the ring to the locker room to lure Wakana Uehara out of the arena. That would leave Yuki Kamifuku alone to fight by herself and even then Misao planned to use her cape to cover over Kamiyu’s face. Kamiyu was stuck in a 1 Vs 4 situation until she successfully called Uehara back to the ring while K!SS// broke free of their traps. From there the match went into a more normal 4 Vs 4 layout and Ober Eats got the victory by trapping Konatsu & Raku in their submission holds. After the match Yamashita apologised for accidentally kicking Kamifuku during the match (Kamifuku stomped on Yamashita while she was stuck in the blanket and suspects Yamashita knew it was her), Uehara apologised for eating the bread and Toribami didn’t understand why everyone on her team was arguing with each other because she was blind during those moments.

The Dracarys that was used by Sara Phoenix to win her match is a Flying Codebreaker from the top rope.

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

1. Special Tag Match: Yuka Sakazaki & KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Hyper Misao & Super Sasadango Machine
2. Princess Tag Team Titles: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara (c) Vs X & X
3. International Princess Title: MIRAI (c) Vs Suzume
4. Princess Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

It’s going to be a battle of pride and history over the International Princess Title in Sumo Hall next month. MIRAI has chosen Suzume to be her next challenger because both have grown stronger in their own different ways in the time that’s occured since MIRAI left Tokyo Joshi Pro. The two were classmates who both debuted in 2019 and had a short lived tag team called BeeStar. If that’s not enough, both of them are going into the match carrying the expectations for their respective companies on their backs. Suzume wants to win back the IP Title for TJPW while MIRAI is fighting for Michinoku Pro who have taken to her like family throughout her tenure there so far.

It has not been made official yet but Ober Eats are going to have their next Princess Tag Team Titles defence on this show. By winning the Max Heart Tournament they have virtually prevented any other team in TJPW from becoming the No. 1 Contenders for the time being. Yuki Kamifuku says she doesn’t care who she and Wakana Uehara will fight against but she would prefer it if TJPW can find a buzzworthy tag team that is cooler, sexier and more popular than them.

Shinjuku FACE
??? Fans – Unannounced

1. Young Boy Akito Nishigaki Shinjuku FACE Debut Match: Rukiya Vs Young Boy Akito Nishigaki ended in a Time Limit Draw (5:00).
1a. Overtime: Rukiya defeated Young Boy Akito Nishigaki with a Cradle (1:59).
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Shin KONOSUKE TAKESHITA, Shunma KatsuMAO & Takeshi Masada defeated Danshoku Dieno, Kazuki Hirata & Koju Takeda when TAKESHITA pinned Hirata with the Wagamama (15:33).
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Brahman Shu, Brahman Kei & Brahman Sasaki defeated Yuya Koroku, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi when Sasaki pinned Yuni after the Gotai Fumanzoku (12:23).
4. SeaSaunaShack Presents: Shinya Aoki defeated Hinata Kasai with the Aoki Clutch (10:35).
5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno defeated Pokotan (w/ Chris Bathooks, Naya Tonttu & Sauna Stones・Den) with the Frog Splash (15:03).
6. Naniwa Health Land Utopia Presents Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki defeated To-y with the Gotch-Style Piledriver (14:51).
7. Bonus Track Exhibition Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Shunma Katsumata ended in a Time Limit Draw (3:00).

A surprise attack from To-y led to him and Minoru Suzuki brawling around ringside during the main event. Suzuki got the advantage by Heel Hooking To-y over near the entrances. To-y tried fighting back with Chops as well as the Kojima Wonderland. But Suzuki got back in control, fired himself up in a To-y like manner and won with the Gotch-Style Piledriver. After the match Suzuki had something to say to To-y and the rest of The 37KAMIINA. He likes saunas too! When Suzuki left the ring, To-y admitted to everyone he was scared of fighting him but also discovered it was exciting too. He wants to go crazy but couldn’t because something else crazy was about to happen in the surprise bonus main event!

Shunma Katsumata then got into the ring. He had spent the entire show playing multiple roles from event producer to ring announcer. Now after eight months since his last match, he was going to wrestle again! The surprise match was a three minute exhibition between Katsumata and Yuki Ueno. It ended in a tie and Katsumata told everyone today has been the most tiring day of his life. However he is now in great condition and will have his official return match from injury on 22nd March!

Ueno earlier found himself in what was pretty much a 1 Vs 4 match. His opponent was Pokotan but the mascot was accompanied with three DDT wrestlers taking up their own sauna gimmicks: Chris Bathooks (Chris Brookes), Naya Tonttu (Yukio Naya) & Sauna Stones・Den (Yuki Ishida). Pokotan lost its head during the match and one of the other wrestlers would put it on to take its place in the match. Ueno took everyone’s moves until the original Pokotan got its head back. Ueno wiped out the others with a Plancha and then hit a Frog Splash onto Pokotan while using its head for extra impact to get the win.

Hinata Kasai got to go ten minutes with Shinya Aoki. Whether or not that can be seen as valuable experience or an excuse to get stretched apart is for him to figure out. While Kasai got to get some offence in, Aoki was firmly in control for much of the match and he got Kasai with the Aoki Clutch to get the three count. Aoki said Kasai gave it his all and that was the reason why Aoki couldn’t end the match as soon as he wanted to. He’s happy with Kasai’s performance and looks forward to what’s to come for the rookie. Kasai called himself weak and said his entire body is in pain but he was able to resist the pain in order to fight Aoki with all that he’s got. He will treasure this match and will definitely beat Aoki some day, even if it takes a few years to get there.

Something Katsumata wasn’t able to do today was perform with NωA Jr. so Daichi Sato was supposed to take his place. Sato is out injured so Yuya Koroku ended up filling his spot instead. Meanwhile The Brahman Brothers had a new ally in the blue form of Brahman Sasaki. He joined in their shenanigans of throwing buckets of water at everyone and spewing mysterious goo out of his mouth. However NωA Jr. ended up doing something similar by drooling what was described as melted chocolate from their mouths onto the Brahmans. Things ended up backfiring for Koroku, Yuni & Kazuma Sumi with missed attacks that ended with powder being thrown into their faces. From there the Brahmans trapped Yuni in the Gotai Fumanzoku double pin for the victory. It took until after the match for Brahman Shu & Brahman Kei to figure out that NωA Jr. used melted chocolate because today is Valentine’s Day.

While the real Konosuke Takeshita is busy wrestling over in Australia, Shin Konosuke Takeshita made their big return a year after their previous appearance on this series. Kazuki Hirata was impressed with Shin Takeshita’s world class ability. Danshoku Dieno was fixated on fighting ShunMAO Katsumata and Koju Takeda joined in on his lewd spots. Shin Takeshita hit the Takeshita Line but couldn’t get over the ropes to do a Topé. Instead ShunMAO & Takeshi Masada used a spinning chair to help Shin Takeshita give Hirata the Raging Fire. Hirata kicked out much to everyone’s surprise but was then thrown into the Double Hell Gate that was Dieno & Takeda’s rear ends. ShunMAO then did the Totonou Splash onto Hirata and Shin Takeshita finished him off with the Wagamama.

Akito rolled back the clock and wrestled his match as a “Young Boy”, wearing the plain black trunks and using a more basic moveset. His match with Rukiya only lasted five minutes because that was the time limit allowed but Katsumata decided to give them a restart in order to determine a winner. Rukiya got the best of Akito here after a series of countered cradles ended with Rukiya getting the pin.

Before the show began, a press conference was held for the upcoming D GENERATIONS CUP final between Kazuma Sumi and Takeshi Masada. Sumi has thought about this match a lot but his thoughts are just him surpassing Masada to win the tournament. He thinks Masada is amazing but he is just as amazing too. Masada (accompanied by Bunbun) appreciated being called an amazing wrestler and competed in this year’s DGC tournament to get more fans to watch it. He wants as much support he can get to win and get the DDT Universal Title shot against Daisuke Sasaki. The two were asked what were their favorite matches in the tournament? Sumi’s answer was his match against Daichi Sato because they punched and kicked each other as hard as they could. Masada chose his two matches with Koroku because they left a lasting impression on him he will never forget. They were then asked about getting a Universal Title match. Sumi said he would like to challenge for that title for the first time and his goal is to become a top Junior Heavyweight wrestler. Masada feels uneasy because he had two previous title shots that both ended in failure. But if he wins it he wants to express what it’s like to be the Universal Champion in his own way.

8. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Mizuki & Uta Takami when Uehara pinned Takami with the Sushi Tornado (14:25).

It took until the sixth year for the reigning Princess Tag Team Champions to go all the way and win the Max Heart Tournament for the first time ever. Ober Eats now have that bragging right after defeating Mizuki & Uta Takami in today’s final. As the match broke down into a frantic finish, Mizuki sacrificed herself to pull Takami out of the way from a step-up elevated Big Boot by Ober Eats and take the blow by herself. Her last heroic act was to counter a Double Flapjack into a Double Stomp that landed on both Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara. Takami tried to end things by putting Uehara into the Koala Clutch but Uehara fought out of it with a Snap Suplex and rolled Takami into the Sushi Tornado to win the match.

After the match Kamifuku got on the microphone and brought up the criticisms Ober Eats get for being the Princess Tag Champions. She remembers there were comments about hoe it was too soon for them to win the belts and Uehara wasn’t ready to be in that position yet. Then Kamifuku admitted those were actually her own opinions and she apologised to Uehara because she proved her wrong. Uehara knows her tag partner wasn’t always excited about them challenging for the titles but she is grateful to fight alongside her the entire time. Now Ober Eats are looking forward to “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” where Kamifuku wants to defend the tag titles against a team that surpasses them in every way from coolness and sexiness to the amount of social media followers they have. Uehara promised the fans that Ober Eats will deliver the best match to them at Sumo Hall on 29th March! Backstage Kamifuku gave some examples of the kind of challengers they want to fight. They need to be on the level of Suzu Hirose, Britney Spears, Nicki Manaj, Mana Ashida or Vivian Hsu. Takami is still happy with the overall experience despite losing because she created so many miracles with Mizuki. She doesn’t think they are finished making miracles yet either. Mizuki said she wants them to work hard together so when they challenge for the tag titles and win them, they will finally decide on a team name. Mizuki also said she always respected Kamifuku and now they have definitely become rivals.

This International Princess Title reign that MIRAI is going through is starting to turn into Tokyo Joshi Pro Vs Michinoku Pro in a way. The champion was again accompanied by Michinoku Pro wrestlers for her match, this time the pair of seconds at ringside were Yapper Man #1 & Yapper Man #2 (the masked gimmicks Speed Of Sounds use over there). The challenger Toga did invite her Hot Shot tag partner Yuna Manase to attend the show but she watched in the crowd since Toga’s title shot in the first place came from her wanting to take on a big challenge all by herself. Her right arm was targeted by MIRAI but she was able to hit her big Elbow Smash with it. But MIRAI got to pulled her down into the MIRAI☆Lock to make Toga fight for a rope break. Toga was then given an Olympic Slam for a nearfall before throwing back another Elbow Strike. MIRAI absorbed the blow and hit back with a Lariat to win the match.

MIRAI praised Toga after the match for being really strong and showing sides that MIRAI never knew she had. She’s impressed given this was Toga’s first time challenging for a singles championship. She encouraged Toga to keep finding herself step by step and they can then fight again some day. MIRAI then switched to talking about defending the IP Title at Sumo Hall, something she previously put out there without telling Tetsuya Koda. She already has an opponent in mind and wants to challenge her right here. It’s Suzume! The two were classmates in TJPW and even teamed up as BeeStar. Since then they both found their own ways to become stronger but Suzume admits she wouldn’t be who she is today without MIRAI. However she doesn’t want this match to happen just because of their history together. The IP Title is precious to her and she will fight to hold it again. Meanwhile MIRAI promises to bring the fight to her while carrying the weight of Michinoku Pro on her shoulders!

As we get closer to 29th March, things are getting a little more serious between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai. The two have the big Princess Of Princess Title match to look forward to but if things continue like they did today there’s the risk one of them might not make it to Sumo Hall. The two fought each other on the ring apron during their tag match, both aiming to use one of their signature moves on each other. Arai won out and used the Full Nelson Buster to throw Watanabe to the floor! Watanabe was able to get back in the ring before the 20 count and had Rika Tatsumi there to help by giving Arai the Twist Of Fate to get rid of her. Watanabe got to recover from the scary bump and pinned Mifu Ashida with the Tear Drop to get Daydream the victory. Watanabe took it as a good preview for “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” while Tatsumi got a sense of how dangerous Arai really is, although she hasn’t figured out if this is the kind of “madness” that Super Sasadango Machine told her to go search for. Over at Kyoto Tag, Ashida was upset over losing the match because she could really feel Arai’s desire to win. Even giving her a Valentine’s Day cheer during the match didn’t work. Arai assured her they will still team together and Ashida will continue to be part of Arai’s future plans. Arai also doesn’t regret giving Watanabe the Full Nelson Buster from the ring apron to the floor. She needed to do something big against her and in the moment knew just slamming her onto the ring apron would have put herself in harm’s way with the drop to the floor.

Suzume’s day was spent teaming up with Arisu Endo to take on Shoko Nakajima & Sara Phoenix. The guest from Chile got plenty of opportunity to go at it against Daisy Monkey while Nakajima remains a tricky opponent for the team to overcome. A bridging Regal Plex almost resulted in Phoenix pinning Suzume but Endo broke the pin at the last second. Phoenix then missed a Missile Dropkick, allowing Suzume to give her a Rope Walk Facebuster followed by the Ring A Bell to get the win.

For the second month in a row, Aja Kong has won the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title at a TJPW Korakuen Hall show! She got to keep it this time too. Mahiro Kiryu needed all of the encouragement she could gather to fight Kong but it led to some setbacks. She had the werewithal to use the Iron Man Title belt as a weapon to counteract Kong’s steel can and even attempted to guard herself from an attack. But Kong paused long enough for Kiryu to drop her guard to get the headshot in anyway. Kiryu found someway to get in control and even roll up Kong for a nearfall. But Kong kicked out and gave Kiryu a slap before pinning her with the Back Drop to win the title. Backstage Kong said in the end the belt chooses her so she’s not going to leave anytime soon. Kiryu then confronted Kong alongside her lookalike Kakeru Sekiguchi and a referee. Sekiguchi spoke for Kiryu and moved her around like a puppet but it was only so Kong would be distracted for Kiryu to roll her up. The plan didn’t work and neither did the twin magic trick. Kong ran both of them off and currently remains the champion.

If Max The Impaler had their way, Pompaler would have teamed with Yuki Aino instead of Raku today. That didn’t happen because the entire point of the other team was so Aino could get Yukiniki and Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed to join forces for one day only. The match went ahead as planned and Max threw Pom Harajuku at the opposition after Ryo Mizunami dared to throw a Chop at Harajuku. Raku used her pillow to block Mizunami’s Chop but Max had enough of the shenanigans and threw the pillow away. Aino later got to do her double team moves with both Mizunami & Haru Kazashiro on the way to beating Harajuku with the Venus DDT.

Because today is Valentine’s Day, Hyper Misao wanted to confess her feelings to someone special by giving Miyu Yamashita some chocolates as a gift. However Chika Nanase interrupted her because she wanted to give Yamashita chocolate too. Kira Summer also had chocolates for Yamashita as did Kakeru Sekiguchi who explained she suddenly had a case of love at first sight. Yamashita thanked all of them but couldn’t accept anyone’s chocolate because she loves them all as TJPW’s Leader. It then turned out to be a trap by Misao’s team so they could jump Yamashita while her guard was down. Misao blinded Shino Suzuki with her Hero Spray while Sekiguchi fought with Kaya Toribami. Misao later led her team in a train attack on HIMAWARI but Suzuki came to the rescue so Bumping gRitters could take down Nanase together. That cleared the ring for HIMAWARI to pin Nanase with the Sunflower Tempest.

The opening match was a chance for Ren Konatsu and Shion Kanzaki fight over who would get their first singles win as a wrestler. Konatsu was able to fight out of a Sleeper Hold and get herself up to the middle rope. From there she did a hop onto the top rope that launched her into hitting a Missile Dropkick on Konatsu. That was enough for a three count and Konatsu got her first win eight months after her debut. She came up with the move because she’s been using sheep-like movements along with some trampolining practice and wanted to combine the two ideas together. Kanzaki was feeling upset because she felt like she couldn’t do anything against Konatsu. It makes her wonder how long it will take for her to catch up when she currently feels like she is at her limit. She promised to practice even harder after this.

Niigata’s own Shoko Nakajima led the ToJo Tokusatsu Club to victory despite the setback of failing to combine into one Megazord several times throughout the match. After picking up the win, Nakajima told everyone a story about the time she went to the Tokamachi Snow Festival as a child and she along with her siblings got to meet the heroes from Gekisou Sentai Carranger. She still keeps the group photo they took in her home back in Tokyo and it is something she treasures. She’s been worried about her family back here because of the heavy snowfall this year and wants to become a hero to be a source of inspiration for everyone to keep working harder. The ToJo Tokusatsu Club don’t borrow the power of heroes, they fight alongside them!

In a preview of this Saturday’s Max Heart Tournament final, Mizuki & Uta Takami got the better of Ober Eats in a 6-Woman Tag Match. Mizuki landed a Diving Cross Body onto Wakana Uehara and then helped Takami take down Yuki Kamifuku with a Dropkick. Ren Konatsu tried to beat Takami using different roll ups but Takami Dropkicked her as well and made Konatsu give up to the Koala Clutch. She later declared that a girl from the Hokuriku region has conquered the land of snow! Mizuki said she doesn’t normally believe in momentum but she can really feel there is a lot of it behind Takami. Shino Suzuki is also thrilled to have teamed with them again and be on the winning team today. Kamifuku encouraged Uehara by telling her the most important thing today is she worked hard. It’s all about being able to help each other, which was proven when Kamifuku forgot to bring her kneepads today and needed to borrow a pair from Shion Kanzaki. Uehara said she loved the warm atmosphere in the building today and she wants to bring it with her all the way to Korakuen Hall.

Before Pompaler made their entrance for Match #4, Hyper Misao got on the microphone to tell Chika Nanase what their gameplan will be. Misao admits Pompaler are too experienced of a tag team for a first time pairing to beat so she asked Super Sasadango Machine to give her some sasadango treats to distract Max The Impaler with. Then they could double team Pom Harajuku and throw her at Max for once. The plan didn’t work well enough. Max fell for the distraction but easily caught Harajuku when she was thrown at them. Max then threw Harajuku at the other team but they both dodged out of the way and Sasadango took the impact instead. Max went on to pin Nanase with the Short-Range Lariat and proceeded to take her scrunchie as a trophy.

An alliance between Raku and Mahiro Kiryu was unable to stop Miyu Yamashita from becoming the new Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion. She hit Raku with the Return Crash then pinned Kiryu with the Skull Kick for the victory. Later after the show there was a fan event that featured the roster competing in different games. One of them was a challenge where several wrestlers all tried to pause a stopwatch at exactly the ten second mark. Whoever got the closest time would be the winner. Since Yamashita took part in it that meant the Iron Man Title was put on the line. The ring announcer Rise Shirai ended up winning the contest to become the new champion. Then later in the event everyone surprised Shion Kanzaki by giving her a cake for her birthday. While they were all celebrating, Kiryu attacked Shirai in front of everybody and used the stopwatch’s cord to choke her into submission. The referee called it a title change but decided the Stopwatch was now the champion! Kiryu then grabbed the Stopwatch, ran away to an empty room where only the referee could follow her and she pinned it to become the champion again.

Sasadango was at the event as the PR Ambassador for “GRAND PRINCESS ’26”. The last time he was at a TJPW show he gave some people challenges to help promote the Sumo Hall show. Today he was looking to get some updates along with giving out more marketing ideas for the roster to take part in. He heard about the ToJo Tokusatsu Club’s request to fight alongside the Super Sentai. He told them that CyberFight actually are working hard on trying to make a collaboration happen but it will be a challenge to make it a reality. So in the meantime he instructed the Club to take part in secret training to prepare for Sumo Hall. Sasadango then asked Tetsuya Koda if there was any progress in him finding a big celebrity to wrestle on the show. He had to remind Koda that this task is seperate from the Super Sentai one. That made Koda admit he’s made zero progress and he doesn’t know where to start. Sasadango told Koda if he can’t do this task then they might as well cancel “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” and nobody wants that to happen. According to Sasadango, if Koda looks hard enough he can find 20 people who are famous enough to fill Sumo Hall by themselves.

When Sasadango was done with catching up on the current challenges, he went to find Rika Tatsumi so he could give her one too. He approached Daydream after they won their tag match and asked Tatsumi what is her most unique quality? Tatsumi said she is a classic idol wrestler but Sasadango corrected her. Her best quality is her madness! Tatsumi refused to believe him but Sasadango brought up how she always strangles her opponents and he doesn’t understand why everyone in Tokyo Joshi Pro ignores it. His challenge to Tatsumi is to hone the insanity inside herself to help liven up Sumo Hall! Tatsumi needs to face the madness within herself but she doesn’t understand what Sasadango means by that. She isn’t a psychopath and she wants to prove it by shaking Sasadango’s hand. But as the handshake was happening, Sasadango encouraged her to try and strangle him. She wouldn’t so he simply told her to do her best and then left. Tatsumi doesn’t know what to do about this. Miu Watanabe however is looking forward to seeing what side of Tatsumi everyone will see at Sumo Hall, the classic idol wrestler or the psychopath?

5. Ueno Nordic Presents Special Single Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Pokotan (w/ Chris Bathooks, Naya Tonttu & Sauna Stones・Den)
6. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y

A rib injury from over the weekend has taken Daichi Sato out of action for around at least a fortnight. He will miss the next three DDT shows which means he should be back sometime after 22nd February. Yuya Koroku replaces him on this show.

DDT “REMBRANDT HIGHWAY SERIES 2026 ~AYU COLISEUM IN ATSUGI~”, 15/02/2026
Kanagawa Rembrandt Hotel Atsugi Grand Banquet Sagami

2. Naomi Yoshimura & Yuni Vs Hideki Okatani & Ilusion

DDT “HYBRID PERFORMER 2026 ~KAISEI TAKECHI 2ND ANNIVERSARY~”, 22/02/2026
Tokyo Korakuen Hall

1. Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA, Antonio Honda & Hinata Kasai Vs To-y, Toru Owashi, Kazuki Hirata & Yuni
2. Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi & Yukio Naya Vs Sanshiro Takagi, Tomomitsu Matsunaga & Ryoma Tsukamoto

6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – Final: Kazuma Sumi Vs Takeshi Masada
7. Kaisei Takechi 2nd Anniversary Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kaisei Takechi

In the short history of the D GENERATIONS CUP we may get its first two-time winner. Takeshi Masada has a chance to win it a second time after being the first ever winner back in 2023. However Kazuma Sumi is riding a wave of momentum going into the final and seems to have more locker room support than the recently gone loner Masada.

Sumi being in the final rips apart my theory that he is the new member of Strange Love Connection.

Ryoma Tsukamoto makes an unexpected appearance to fill in for Daichi Sato.

Finally all four members of FANTÔMES DRAMATIC are all teaming together.

The match order outside of the main event has not been decided yet.

“URANO EN 3”, 24/02/2025
TOKYO SQUARE In Itabashi

1. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Fuminori Abe
2. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Ilusion
3. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Fuminori Abe Vs Ayato Yoshida
4. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Ilusion
5. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Ayato Yoshida
6. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Fuminori Abe Vs Ilusion
7. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Yasu Urano Vs Ayato Yoshida
8. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Fuminori Abe
9. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ayato Yoshida Vs Ilusion
10. Extreme Five Warriors Iron Man Tournament: Ikuto Hidaka Vs Yasu Urano

Something extra BASARA related with a little bit of DDT there too. Yasu Urano is putting together a one day Round Robin tournament between himself, Ikuto Hidaka, Ayato Yoshida, Fuminori Abe and Ilusion. Urano chose that lineup because he wanted two wrestlers in their 50s, two in their 30s and one in his 20s. But here’s the catch. Every match is an Iron Man match, ten in total!

DDT “KO KO! YOKOHAMA BATTLE 2026”, 28/02/2026
Kanagawa Radiant Hall

1. DDT Extreme Title: To-y (c) Vs Yuki Ishida

The aftermath of the DGC group stages left To-y in bad humour because Yuki Ishida was partially responsible for him failing to win the A Block. That then led to To-y bringing up the time Ishida got drunk on a night out and To-y had to pay his tab of 40,000 yen. He figured out a DDT Extreme Title match between the two can settle the matter. If To-y wins then not only does he defend his championship but Ishida will have to pay him back the 40,000 yen!

GANBARE☆PRO “KINKI CHIHO NO ARU BASHO NI TSUITE 2026”, 01/03/2026
Osaka Hirano Community Hall

1. Sentaro Motoshima Vs Sora Fujikawa
2. Moeka Haruhi & Fairy Nihonbashi Vs Kyusei Ninja Ranmaru & Hibiscus Mii

Universe Cup

Looks like I now have to start talking about MONDAY MAGIC a bit more often. This thing started off in 2023 as an idea by NOSAWA Rongai to host live weekly NOAH shows on ABEMA built around mystery lineups and surprise matches. After the debut season, the series was then added to Wrestle Universe and last year it was quietly spun off into becoming its own brand, although it is still NOAH adjacent. I personally like the idea of treating Monday Magic as its own thing but you’d still be right to label it a NOAH show.

During the most recent season titled “RISING SUN”, it was announced that two upcoming spin-off episodes called “UNIVERSE MAGIC” will host the first ever Universe Cup tournament. It will be an eight man tournament featuring a representative from many different wrestling promotions that can be seen on Wrestle Universe. The wrestlers taking part are:

Naomichi Marufuji (Pro Wrestling NOAH)
Sanshiro Takagi (DDT Pro Wrestling)
The Great Sasuke (Michinoku Pro Wrestling)
Hayabusa (ZERO1 Pro Wrestling)
Isami Kodaka (Pro Wrestling BASARA)
Yumehito Imanari (Ganbare☆Pro Wrestling)
Kuroshio TOKYO Japan (Pro Wrestling Uptown)
Great Mummy (MONDAY MAGIC)

MONDAY MAGIC “UNIVERSE MAGIC 2026”, 09/03/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. UNIVERSE CUP – Round 1: Sanshiro Takagi Vs Great Mummy
2. UNIVERSE CUP – Round 1: Naomichi Marufuji Vs Kuroshio TOKYO Japan
3. UNIVERSE CUP – Round 1: Isami Kodaka Vs The Great Sasuke
4. UNIVERSE CUP – Round 1: Hayabusa Vs Yumehito Imanari

Alright I get to talk about the new Hayabusa! Actually Bahu did a great job explaining the whole situation with him and ZERO1 recently so I recommend you give his video a watch. The inclusion of ZERO1 to this tournament comes from their repaired relationship with NOAH after the Go Shiozaki fiasco (I knew something was up with him a while back) and that led to Hayabusa recently appearing on Monday Magic so his addition has not come out of nowhere.

One of NOSAWA’s running jokes in Monday Magic is to often book one of the wrestlers to disguise themselves as Great Mummy, a throwback to the mummy gimmicks that were a regular presence around Japan’s sleazier indies decades ago. It’s only fitting that Sanshiro Takagi was chosen to be Great Mummy’s opponent in the first round.

MONDAY MAGIC “UNIVERSE MAGIC 2026”, 06/04/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. UNIVERSE CUP – Semi Final: X Vs X
2. UNIVERSE CUP – Semi Final: X Vs X
3. UNIVERSE CUP – Final: X Vs X

The match announcement video included an image of a playoff bracket that makes it look like the winners of Matches #1 and #3 will meet in one semi final and the winners of Matches #2 and #4 will face off in the other. However I’m feeling suspicious about something. To put it kindly, NOSAWA is a trickster at heart. Don’t be surprised if he suddenly throws in a swerve or two that could completely change the face of the Universe Cup going into the final rounds.
