3. Suzume & Ren Konatsu defeated HIMAWARI & Shion Kanzaki when Konatsu pinned Kanzaki with the Aries Comet (?:??).
4. Mizuki defeated Mahiro Kiryu with the Diving Foot Stomp (9:57).

7. Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Yuki Arai, Arisu Endo & Shino Suzuki when Watanabe submitted Arai with the Canadian Backbreaker (19:19).

Remember that storyline from a year ago about Miu Watanabe is a monster rather than a princess? Yeah, that monster is slowly crawling out of the abyss as the tension between her and Yuki Arai is growing thicker. Watanabe made Arai submit to the Canadian Backbreaker to win today’s main event and then raised the Princess Of Princess Title belt over her head in victory. Arai tried to strike Watanabe in retaliation but she was easily knocked away and her team had to leave the ring before things escalated. Watanabe changed back to her normal bubbly self to close out the show and mistakenly said “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” was happening on 9th March before correcting herself with the right date of the 29th. Backstage Arai told her team that today’s loss really hurt her and her back is in a lot of pain from taking the Canadian Backbreaker. She’ll have to recover in time for the next warm up match for Sumo Hall.

A falling out almost happened between Rika Tatsumi, Raku & Pom Harajuku over the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title. Raku & Harajuku wanted to win the title and Tatsumi lost her temper at them. Mifu Ashida urged them with her cheerleading to make up. Yuki Kamifuku went and won the match for her team then spoke with Wakana Uehara backstage about their next Princess Tag Team Titles defence. They are surprised and excited to be facing The IInspiration and want them to learn a list of words for when they come to Japan. “Wabi-sabi, Omotenashi, Ober Eats.” “Sushi, Ramen, Ober Eats.” “Pokémon, Hello Kitty, Ober Eats.” “Tempura, Sukiyakai, Ober Eats.” “Toyota, Nissan, Ober Eats.” “Mochi, Tofu, Ober Eats.”

On this day 11 years ago Hyper Misao had her debut match. She wanted to start things fresh today and asked for her 3 Way Match to be changed into Uta Takami versus Kira Summer in a singles bout with Misao facing the winner. The other two decided against it and attacked her to ensure it stayed every girl for herself.

Earlier in the weekend Super Sasadango Machine sent a message to the ToJo Tokusatsu Club giving them more detailed instructions over the Super Sentai training they were tasked with doing. They were specifically told to take part in the “Fireball Return Training” that was seen in Episode 19 of Gekisou Sentai Carranger. The training hasn’t solved their problem of being unable to combine together successfully since neither Yuki Aino nor Haru Kazashiro have become strong enough to carry the others on top of their shoulders. Thankfully Aino was fired up by wrestling in her hometown and got her team the victory. She was happy the show got a full house today because Tokyo Joshi Pro usually comes to Okayama in January so she was worried the later date this year meant some fans who usually come to the shows wouldn’t appear. Shoko Nakajima called Okayama her second hometown because so many of her relatives live there. Kazashiro joked that Okayama is her third hometown next to the place where she was born and the place where she lives.

Tensions between Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai is also firing up those two wrestlers and continues to reveal a more agressive side of Arai that hasn’t been seen before. The finish to the match had Mifu Ashida hold Watanabe back on the ring apron while Yuki Arai made Kira Summer tap out to the Scorpion Death Lock. But before Arai applied the move she shouted “I’m not giving up” and she refused to let go of the hold until the referee pulled her off of Summer. Backstage Arai said she wants to continue cherishing everything that is important to her but she also knows she may need to throw some of those things away in order to change what she needs to change. However Watanabe said nothing Arai did today has changed her expectations of her. There are two things in particular about Arai that she wants to explore before their Princess Of Princess Title match but they didn’t show up today. She won’t reveal what those two factors are until the next prelim match.

After yesterday’s show in Kobe, backstage shenanigans ended up with Rika Tatsumi winning the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title from Aja Kong. She is thinking about taking it all the way to Sumo Hall to defend the title there but is worried that Watanabe will want to take it off her before then. Watanabe assured Tatsumi that she will pass on any opportunity to take the belt from her. Summer also think she isn’t strong enough yet to beat Tatsumi and asked her to remain the champ until she is ready to challenge.

Hyper Misao’s pre-match promo had her talk about how great the Okayama delicacy kibidango is. According to her, many pro wrestlers eat kibidango to gain power before their matches. She & Shino Suzuki then ate some during their match to power themselves up into a frenzy. Mahiro Kiryu used her attacks to knock them back to their senses (and of course apologized to everyone afterwards). Suzume went on to win the match by pinning Suzuki with the Ring A Bell.

TJPW OG, Okayama local and Aino’s older sister Nodoka Tenma greeted everyone at the start of the show. She promoted the upcoming Gaisen Sakura Pro Wrestling show taking place on 11th April.

A mystery suddenly opened up backstage during the show. Mizuki’s Pico Pico Hammer was stolen by an unknown person and they removed the hammer head while leaving a small American flag next to the pole. Mizuki found the remains of the hammer with the flag alongside it and is currently wondering what could this mean?

Just like yesterday, parts of the undercard were changed around because Yuki Kamifuku was too sick to be at the show.

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.

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.

7. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro defeated Yuki Arai, HIMAWARI & Toga when Nakajima pinned HIMAWARI with the Diving Senton (14:46).

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?

7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku when Kamifuku pinned Harajuku with the Diving Famouser (13:29).

And now there are only two teams left. The Max Heart Tournament semi finals cut down two accomplished tag teams today, one of them being former winners and the other being last year’s finalists. Ober Eats however have become the first reigning Princess Tag Team Champions to make it to the last round by eliminated Pompaler in today’s main event. Max The Impaler was almost unstoppable by themselves but things went south when Pompaler missed the Laforet Harajuku Cannonball into the corner. Wakana Uehara got in some extra damage by giving Max the Sushi Tornado while Yuki Kamifuku got the pin on Pom Harajuku with the Diving Famouser. It was a redeeming victory for Ober Eats because they lost to Pompaler at last year’s semi final which was also held in Shinjuku FACE. Harajuku really wanted to win this year but she thinks her bond with Max has deepened even further and they have become more super best friends than ever! Although she would like it if Max would stop throwing her.

Is history repeating itself with Mizuki? She was once thrown into a tag team with Yuka Sakazaki for a tournament and they ended up winning it to start a long road of dominating Tokyo Joshi Pro’s tag team division. Are we starting to see the same thing with Mizuki & Uta Takami because they just beat Daisy Monkey to reach the Max Heart final! Suzume & Arisu Endo had things going well for them until Mizuki found a way to use Endo as a launchpad to Double Stomp Suzuki between the ropes in the corner. Takami came in with the assist to help Mizuki use the Cutie Special on Endo twice for the finish. Daisy Monkey took it as a lesson that they still have room to improve. It excites them to learn that there are even stronger teams out there. Mizuki admits she is surprised with her team’s success and credits Takami’s hard work for pulling her along. She thinks they are like opposites which is why they haven’t even come up with a team name yet. Takami thinks they both have the same heart though and that is what has made them a strong pair so far.

The final is now set for 14th February in Korakuen Hall. The two teams spoke to each other face to face in the ring at the end of the show. Kamifuku expected Mizuki to make it this far and she is happy to face her in Korakuen again because Mizuki was part of Kamifuku’s debut match that was held in the same venue. Uehara is even getting a little annoyed at how cool headed both Mizuki & Takami are this late into the tournament. Takami said her team has been working so hard that she can see a future where they can win the final. Mizuki agreed that it is not some miracle that brought them this far and if they can beat Ober Eats in the final she is sure they can win the Princess Tag Titles from them too! Kamifuku closed out the show talking about how she prefers not to show her emotions but the final will be an emotional experience that you won’t find with AI.

MIRAI and Toga met twice in the ring today, once for a contract signing and then later again for a tag match. Toga explained she made the challenge for the International Princess Title to show her growth as a singles wrestler. She’s been studying MIRAI and expects that MIRAI has been studying her too. Even so, she warns that MIRAI is going to see a side of Toga she hasn’t seen before. MIRAI introduced herself as the embodiment of Michinoku Pro’s mutsu spirit. She admitted she has been watching Toga’s matches on Wrestle Universe and is impressed with how cool she is. She has noticed how explosive Toga’s signature moves are and she can turn the tables with just one hit. However MIRAI is confident she can win and go on to defend the IP Title at Sumo Hall. She then apologised to Tetsuya Koda for putting the idea out there without asking him first. MIRAI would then go on to win a tag match with Sara Phoenix against Toga & Chika Nanase. She said Toga’s strikes were as painful as she expected but it was herself who had the most energy today to win. Toga said she saw firsthand just how calculated MIRAI’s moves are while wrestling her so she now needs to figure that out herself.

It was time for a meeting between the ToJo Tokusatsu Club. Not only did Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro enter the ring armed with a D-Sword Vega and some SP Licences, they also tried to form themselves into one large mecha with Nakajima on top of Aino and Kazashiro having to carry everything as the base. She couldn’t do it so Mifu Ashida got Yuki Arai & Kira Summer to all cheer together for her. Kazashiro went through with trying and naturally everyone all collapsed. The Tokusatsu Club recovered to win the match and start thinking of a new goal together. They all want to liven up “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” in their own way this March and show children that pro wrestling can make dreams come true. So they want to invite some Super Sentai heroes to Sumo Hall where they can all fight together!

The last time Hyper Misao and Shino Suzuki had a match against each other, Misao came up with rules that were built around a trivia quiz so she could cheer herself up at the time. She reflected back on that match today and admitted she was immature back then. In other to self-reflect before her big tag match at Sumo Hall this March, Misao wanted to come up with rules based on something Suzuki likes. Misao knows that Suzuki is good at double jumps so she brought along a jump rope and suggested one of them would need to do 10 double jumps every time there is a kickout. Suzuki wouldn’t agree and demanded the rule be she only needs to pin Misao for a Two Count in order to win while Misao still needs to get a 3 Count. Both rules were agreed to and the nearfalls got to the point where both of them had to do double jumps at the same time to continue the match until Misao pinned Suzuki with La Magistral Cradle.

It was announced that Mifu Ashida, Miyu Yamashita and Suzume will all have homecoming shows taking place later this year. Ashida’s show will be held in Fukuchiyama on 4th April, Yamashita’s show in Fukuoka is scheduled for 5th April and Suzume’s show in Tsukuba is set for 6th May.

Max Heart Final 4, SLC Is Growing, Yuta Oya, Big Matches For March

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 31/01/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. 3 Way Match: Hyper Misao Vs Raku Vs Shino Suzuki
2. HIMAWARI Vs Shion Kanzaki
3. Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro Vs Yuki Arai, Mifu Ashida & Kaya Toribami
4. Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Ren Konatsu Vs Miyu Yamashita, Mahiro Kiryu & Kaya Toribami

7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Semi-Final: Suzume & Arisu Endo Vs Mizuki & Uta Takami

Four teams are left in the Max Heart Tournament. Can Pompaler reach the final again for a second year in a row or will Ober Eats become the first reigning Princess Tag Team Champions to make it to the last two. Daisy Monkey are still on path to becoming the first two time winners but the wild card team of Mizuki & Uta Takami can continue to throw things off course.

MIRAI will make her first appearance back in Tokyo Joshi Pro since winning the International Princess Title. She and Toga will be gearing up for their title match next month with Sara Phoenix and Chika Nanase joining in the fun.

DDT “NEXT STEP GAME 2026”, 04/02/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Jun Akiyama & Danshoku Dieno Vs Toru Owashi & Kazuki Hirata
2. 3 Way 6-Man Tag Match: Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul Vs Chris Brookes, HARASHIMA & Antonio Honda Vs Akito, Junta Miyawaki & Yuki Ishida
3. Special 6-Man Tag Match: Yuki Ueno, Shinya Aoki & Rukiya Vs MAO, KANON & Yukio Naya
4. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Yuya Koroku (4) Vs Hinata Kasai (0)
5. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – B Block: Takeshi Masada (2) Vs Yuni (2)
6. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: Daichi Sato (4) Vs Kazuma Sumi (2)
7. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – A Block: To-y (3) Vs Ilusion (0)

A big shift is happening in DDT now that The Apex has joined Strange Love Connection, turning SLC from a tag team into a growing unit. The change it has for this show isn’t as big though. It’s just Yukio Naya and Rukiya swapping teams now that Naya calls MAO & KANON his allies.

DDT “NEPPA OVER FLOWERS 5 ~THE ONLY SAUNA IN THE WORLD~”, 14/02/2026
Shinjuku FACE

1. Special Single Match: Minoru Suzuki Vs To-y

The main event of The 37KAMIINA’s annual Valentine’s Day show has been announced. To-y is going to fight Minoru Suzuki! To-y is probably going to get murdered by Suzuki too.

Both Yuki Ueno and MAO will be wrestling on the show. Also Shunma Katsumata will be there taking on several roles from show producer to ring announcer to Sauna Health Advisor.

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

1. Kazuki Hirata Vs Rukiya
2. Naomi Yoshimura & Yuni Vs Hideki Okatani & Ilusion
3. To-y, Takeshi Masada & Yuya Koroku Vs Yuki Ishida, Kazuma Sumi & Hinata Kasai
4. MAO, KANON & Yukio Naya (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Akito, Junta Miyawaki & Daichi Sato
5. Special Tag Match: Yuki Ueno & Jun Akiyama Vs Chris Brookes & Antonio Honda
6. O-40 Title – 4 Way Match: Daisuke Sasaki (c) Vs HARASHIMA Vs Danshoku Dieno Vs Tomomitsu Matsunaga

The grand plan to create a DDT Triple Crown didn’t work out for Daisuke Sasaki but he is now a double champion. His first defence for the DDT Universal Title hasn’t been decided yet but if it was up to him it would be against Ueno. Instead he has to go defend the O-40 Title in a 4 Way Match against HARASHIMA, Danshoku Dieno and Tomomitsu Matsunaga. Given what pro wrestling is like nowadays I doubt this is the oldest lineup a 4 Way Match has ever had.

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

1. D GENERATIONS CUP 2026 – Final: Winner Of Block A Vs Winner Of Block B
2. Special 6-Man Tag Match: MAO, KANON & X (w/ KIMIHIRO) Vs Danshoku Dieno, Super Sasadango Machine & Akito
3. Kaisei Takechi 2nd Anniversary Match: Yuki Ueno Vs Kaisei Takechi

SLC have even more members coming to join the team. MAO was already planning to reveal their new stablemate before The Apex offered to join them. I think Kazuma Sumi would be the perfect choice given that he already fits in with MAO & KANON from previous tag matches and he has a little bit of history teaming up with The Apex as well.

BAKA GAIJIN + FRIENDS “VOL. 28: BIG BEAT FROM BADSVILLE”, 24/02/2026
Tokyo ARENA Shimokitazawa

1. Special Single Match: Antonio Honda Vs Miyu Yamashita
2. Special Single Match: Chris Brookes Vs Yuta Oya

Chris Brookes was feeling down over his recent championship defeats but a brand new opponent emerging in Baka Gaijin + Friends has cheered him up. Yuta Oya is from Sportiva Entertainment and only debuted in July 2024 which made headlines because he is blind. He had cancer as a child that resulted in his right eye being removed and radiation therapy being needed to save his left eye. He had taken up judo in school and wanted to become a pro wrestler but had to give up that dream when he eventually lost sight in his left eye and became fully blind. He was then diagnosed with bladder cancer in his early 30s which made him want to become a pro wrestler to teach his son you need the determination to never give up while pursuing what you love.

Also making their Baka Gaijin debut next month is Miyu Yamashita! She has teamed up with Antonio Honda before, the most important time being the match against Kenny Omega & Riho at “ULTIMATE PARTY 2019”. This will be the first time Yamashita and Honda will be opponents.

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

1. Dramatic Dream Match: KONOSUKE TAKESHITA Vs Kazuki Hirata
2. KO-D Openweight Title: Yuki Ueno (c) Vs KANON

The DDT 29th Anniversary main event has been set. Yuki Ueno defends the KO-D Openweight Title against KANON in a match that has more history behind it than it looks on the surface. When KANON joined DDT in 2022 his first loss in the company was to Ueno in that year’s King Of DDT tournament. KANON wants to get revenge on that loss while also taking the company’s top prize as somebody who has grown to love DDT. Ueno remembers that match and he also remembers all of the times KANON tried to hurt him as a member of DAMNATION T.A. Will the build up to this match result in fresh bad blood between them or will cooler heads prevail to focus on the big prize?

Meanwhile Kazuki Hirata is getting the biggest opponent DDT can throw at him and he doesn’t like it. Can he pull off an even bigger miracle than winning the KO-D Title last year by beating Konosuke Takeshita all by himself? I mean if Yota Tsuji can do it then Hirata certainly can. Right?

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 Of Princess Title: Miu Watanabe (c) Vs Yuki Arai

Look, even Super Sasadango Machine is surprised that the mystery team isn’t Shingo Takagi & Natsupoi. Instead Sasadango is being dragged into the match by Hyper Misao because she thinks a pairing as incomprehensible as them is what it will take to beat Yuka Sakazaki & Takeshita. Also Misao wants to get contracts from DDT, TJPW, AEW and New Japan all at the same time. She thinks winning this match will help her achieve that goal.

Natsume Nakayama from OCHA NORMA will be at the show as a special guest commentator. She does not seem to be the celebrity wrestler that Tetsuya Koda has been tasked with finding to be a big draw for the show.

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT” Results

TOKYO JOSHI PRO “THE 6TH “FUTARI WA PRINCESS” MAX HEART TOURNAMENT”, 25/01/2026
Tokyo Ryogoku KFC Hall
347 Fans – Super No Vacancy

1. Kira Summer & Chika Nanase defeated Toga & Shion Kanzaki when Nanase submitted Kanzaki with the Inari Torii Aratame (9:58).
2. Hyper Misao, HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki defeated Mahiro Kiryu, Raku & Ren Konatsu when Misao pinned Konatsu with the Hypami Returns (10:47).
3. Shoko Nakajima defeated Sara Phoenix with the Northern Lights Suplex (8:45).
4. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Mizuki & Uta Takami defeated Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro when Takami pinned Kazashiro after the Foot Stomp from Mizuki (13:46).
5. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami when Endo pinned Toribami with the Ju no Okite (12:20).
6. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku defeated Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi when Max pinned Tatsumi with the Reverse Splash (15:20).
7. “Futari wa Princess” Max Heart Tournament – Round 2: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara defeated Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida when Uehara submitted Ashida with the Banana Pillow (12:05).

With Round 2 out of the way now every team in this year’s Max Heart Tournament have had a match. Ober Eats are currently the team to be since they are the reigning Princess Tag Team Champions. They also knocked out the team featuring one half of the upcoming Sumo Hall main event. Kyoto Tag had their moment of taunting Wakana Uehara with some cheerleading but Yuki Kamifuku and her Big Boots were there to keep things in favour of the champions. While Yuki Arai was able to get rid of her with a Brainbuster, Mifu Ashida wasn’t able to capitalise. Instead Uehara trapped her in the Banana Pillow to get the win and advance Ober Eats into the semi finals. Uehara really wants to win the Max Heart trophies and she’s noticing that Kamifuku is becoming hungry for success too even though she’s not showing it. Ashida said if Kyoto Tag would have won today, they would have revealed their official tag team name. Unfortunately it’s going to be kept secret for a while longer. Ashida even thought up lyrics for a new entrance song. The only line she would reveal is “I love you, Arai♪ Let’s try harder♪” and it took up a lot of her brain power to come up with it.

The other half of the Sumo Hall main event was also knocked out of the tournament today despite her best efforts with her tag partner. Daydream walked out armed with their sasumata poles in an attempt to trap Pompaler with them. The poles worked on Pom Harajuku but Max The Impaler was able to power their way out of the trap. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi did what they could to slow Max down, even by using Harajuku as a weapon against them. But Max did the same to Daydream before pinning Tatsumi with the Reverse Splash for the victory. Daydream are both relieved they are still alive after the match but are disappointed to be knocked out so early. Both of them want to achieve a lot together this year whether if it is Daydream winning Best Tag Team Awards or Tatsumi becoming the Dragon God of everything. Pompaler now face Ober Eats in the semi final and the champions are not looking forward to that.

Only one team of former winners remain in the final four and that’s Daisy Monkey. They had to go through the kick heavy team of K!SS// to get here. Arisu Endo was able to block Kaya Toribami from going for the Sento Choryu while Suzume took out Miyu Yamashita with the Ring A Bell. Toribami tried to kick her way out of trouble but Endo stunned her with a Super Kick before getting the win using her Ju no Okite finisher. Daisy Monkey are feeling confident together now they are reunited and they really want to win this tournament again. They also now wonder if they can challenge K!SS// for the IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Titles? Would they have to go to Thailand to make it happen? K!SS// already have a title defence lined up over there happening next month though.

In something of an upset, the makeshift team of Mizuki & Uta Takami have eliminated Shunrai Rekka!! Prism Greed in the 2nd Round! Mizuki’s craftiness won out in the end when she saw an opening to do a Double Stomp onto Haru Kazashiro while she was trying to bridge a pin on top of Takami. Kazashiro didn’t notice that Takami rolled out of the way and definitely didn’t expect Mizuki to come in and stomp her flat. Takami immediately jumped on top for the pin and got the three count. Yuki Aino apologised for not being there to stop the pin but Kazashiro told her neither of them are to blame for losing. Mizuki said that since the team has made it this far, they should make a miracle happen and go even further. They have to beat Daisy Monkey in the semi final if they want to make that miracle a reality.

Super Sasadango Machine was in attendance for the show to help promote “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” happening at Sumo Hall on 29th March. He is the PR Ambassador for the show but wants everybody in Tokyo Joshi Pro to do their part in promoting the big event. That includes Tetsuya Koda who received a big request from Sasadango. Koda was told to go find an important special guest from outside of wrestling to come to the show and have a debut match! The guest needs to be such a big name that her appearance by itself can fill up Sumo Hall. Koda agreed to take the request and will find someone famous to compete in their pro wrestling debut.

Sasadango was brought back out later in the show because he was part of another important announcement. Hyper Misao declared that she is going to take on Yuka Sakazaki & Konosuke Takeshita at “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” and Sasadango will be her tag team partner! Sasadango was confused because he thought the newly married couple of Shingo Takagi & Natsupoi were going to be the mystery team facing Sakazaki & Takeshita. Misao told him to shut up and explained the better opponents for them would be the most incomprehensible tag team the wrestling world can come up with, which is Misao & Sasadango. Misao also wanted to fire up Sasadango because his efforts to promote “GRAND PRINCESS ’26” lately haven’t been up to his usual standards. Even if Sasadango’s appearance on the show only sells one ticket, how can he expect to sell out Sumo Hall if he can’t even take care of the one precious fan who bought that ticket? She also explained that the PR in TJPW PR Ambassador means Pro Wrestling Ring, not Public Relations. That means Sasadango has no choice but to accept this match! Misao also has another goal she wants to achieve out of this. She wants to beat Sakazaki & Takeshita so she can earn four contracts across DDT, TJPW, AEW and New Japan all at the same time! Sasadango is thinking even bigger and wants to get contracts with every wrestling company out there.

New Info For The TJPW Texas Tour

Details for three of the four shows Tokyo Joshi Pro will be holding in Texas in March have been revealed. We now know there are two dates in Austin on the 17th and 18th followed by a show in Arlington happening on the 21st. The Houston show currently does not have a date or venue attached. Since the original promoted dates were from the 17th to the 22nd, I reckon it will end up being held on the 22nd but nothing has been confirmed yet.

The list of TJPW wrestlers taking part on the tour are Miu Watanabe, Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara, Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima, Mizuki, Rika Tatsumi, Hyper Misao, Raku, Yuki Aino, Suzume, Pom Harajuku, Arisu Endo, Yuki Arai, Kaya Toribami, Shino Suzuki, Mifu Ashida and Uta Takami. There will also be non-Japanese wrestlers taking part and they will be revealed soon.

There’s one more thing I want to slip in at the end here and it is about WrestleMania Week in Las Vegas. Right now there is nothing DDT or TJPW related announced to be happening. MAO put out a tweet a few weeks back expressing his disappointment that he (and Yoshihiko) won’t be returning to Vegas this year which is more evidence that DDT won’t be doing anything. However I am hearing conflicted stories over TJPW putting out some kind of presence there during the week. One side says the Texas tour is the only US shows they are doing for the next couple of months. However I’ve also heard that TJPW is organizing something for Vegas in April that will eventually be revealed. Whether it is a full fledged show or a collaboration with another indie that will only involve a portion of the roster I do not know. The only other info I’ve seen is it will not be attached to GCW or The Collective. So yeah, I just wanted to pass along that rumour for the weekend.

Official TJPW Best Matches Of 2025

This list was revealed back on New Year’s Day but I was busy on holiday. Only got around to doing this now almost three weeks later. Over 340 fans from around the world voted for their favorite Tokyo Joshi Pro matches of 2025. Nearly 140 matches received votes. There was also a correction to some of the scores originally posted in their tweet thread but none of the matches changed places because of it.
