Official TJPW Best Matches Of 2025

January 19, 2026

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.

Eight gets whittled down to four as the Tokyo Princess Cup went through the Quarter Finals today. In the main event it was champion against champion as Mizuki fought Shoko Nakajima. It was their first singles match against each other since the 2020 Princess Cup Final but they were both prepared for each other. Nakajima was able to prevent the Cutie Special from happening but Mizuki also knew when to block the 619 with a Dropkick. However Nakajima was persistent with the move and eventually found her mark with it. She also fought to lock in the Unmanned Local Train Hold but Mizuki got out of it with a rope break. She then got to do the Cutie Special from the top rope as a counter for Nakajima planning a top rope Hurricanrana. But Nakajima took over and used her signature moves one after the other before pinning Mizuki with the Diving Senton. After the match Nakajima told Mizuki the next time they have a singles match she will be wearing the Princess Of Princess Title at the end of it. Backstage Mizuki said she wants to get revenge for this loss so she hopes Nakajima wins the tournament to set up a rematch with the Princess Title on the line. In fact, she is willing to give her a title shot even if Nakajima doesn’t win the Cup.

The unexpected upset of the Quarter Finals… wait can it really be called unexpected? Maybe Miyu Yamashita finally winning the Princess Cup in 2023 and skipping the 2024 tournament made some fans forget the Cup has historically been Yamashita’s Achilles heel throughout her entire career. Well today was her rude awakening because Arisu Endo knocked her out in the Quarter Finals! Endo tried to make a gameplan around using her mobility to disrupt Yamashita’s moves but that didn’t work. Instead she had to rely on her guts and take every kick her opponent threw at her. Soon she was able to read Yamashita’s attacks but Yamashita fired back by escaping the Camel Clutch to give Endo a German Suplex. Endo was able to withstand more strikes and used a Waterwheel Drop to throw Yamashita into the turnbuckles. Endo then stunned her with a Super Kick and used the Ju no Okite to get the upset victory. Endo said she was flooded with memories of the past as soon as this match was announced. She remembered feeling helpless against Yamashita in their early singles matches and also remembered Yamashita directly beating her to take the Princess Tag Team Titles. But the Endo that is here today could not have existed without that past. She owes a lot to Yamashita because whenever they fight, Endo finds a passion she never knew she had coming out and it gets her super fired up. Yamashita was frustrated over the loss but she tells herself she’ll just need to switch her focus. She wanted to fight Rika Tatsumi in the tournament this year but Tatsumi was eliminated in the first round so none of Yamashita’s Princess Cup dreams came true this year.

Yuki Arai isn’t wasting time climbing her way back to getting another Princess Title shot. She also continues to have the upper hand on Wakana Uehara whenever they face each other. Uehara was softened up with Big Boots but she got to do a Brainbuster to set up the Banana Pillow. Arai reached the ropes but took enough damage that she couldn’t pin Uehara straight away after doing the Full Nelson Buster. Uehara went for a series of roll ups, ending with a Jackknife Pin to try and win the same way she did in Round 1. However Arai caught Uehara by the legs and turned her over into the Scorpion Death Lock, keeping it locked in until Uehara gave up. Arai said Uehara’s growth since last year’s tournament has been incredible. She wonders if they will face each other again at next year’s Princess Cup to make it three years in a row. Arai hopes she will win if that does happen. Uehara is disappointed she lost to Arai again but she is proud of the progress she has made. If Uehara can’t be the centre of attention this year then she will support Arai to go all the way instead.

The power of Miu Watanabe was just too overwhelming for Haru Kazashiro to handle. From Backbreakers to Batting Hammers to Power Slams, Watanabe broke her opponent off piece by piece. Kazashiro found some moments to fight back by targeting Watanabe’s arms but soon she found herself being spun around in a Front Neck Lock Giant Swing. Once Watanabe put her into the Reverse Paradox, it was all over for Kazashiro. Watanabe said she could sense how fired up Kazashiro was for this match and she will continue to grow even more from here. While Kazashiro acknowledges her improvement from last year’s tournament, she still doesn’t feel like she has caught up yet. She sees this match as an important milestone and her last summer as a high school student isn’t over yet.

A few hours after the show was finished, TJPW held the draw to set up the semi final pairings. Rise Shirai watched over the proceedings and the matches happening on 17th August are Shoko Nakajima Vs Miu Watanabe and Yuki Arai Vs Arisu Endo. Watanabe thinks Nakajima has been performing at full speed ever since she won the MLW Women’s World Featherweight Title so she had to work hard against her recently. She would also like to face Arai in the final because it will be a first time singles match for them. Nakajima talked about how well received their recent match in Texas was but the praise doesn’t make up for her being the loser of the match. As far as Nakajima is concerned, this match feels like the final. Arai has made the semi finals before but wants to beat Endo so she can finally reach the final. Endo has noticed how often Arai is present for TJPW’s important moments lately. She has never beaten Arai but knows she’ll need to stop her unstoppable momentum in order to make it to the final. She has the confidence to do it after beating Yamashita today.

Today was Ivy Steele’s final match with Tokyo Joshi Pro before she returns home to England. She has spent a year in Japan as part of a cultural program with her university back in Great Britain. She walked down to the ring with Kira Summer carrying both the British flag and Australian flag. She put Toga in the Vines Of Ivy submission hold but Chika Nanase broke it up. Summer threw Nanase aside with a Back Body Drop but Steele ended up getting pinned by Toga’s Rock Bottom. Backstage Steele said she was happy her last TJPW match was with people she loves but it’s a shame she wasn’t able to win. Summer suggested since they lost that means Steele will have to come back to Japan so she can get her win back. Steele pointed out she and Toga have a 1-1 singles record against each other. So don’t treat this as a goodbye, it is more see you later.

Pom Harajuku sat out in the front row for the beginning of the 3 Way Match because she wanted to see fireworks between Yuki Kamifuku and HIMAWARI. She eventually got involved but kept demanding the other two jump in the air like they were fireworks blowing up. HIMAWARI was happy to join in but Kamifuku wasn’t. When she was finally convinced to give it a go, Kamifuku was suddenly attacked by the other two and the match proceeded as normal.

4. Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title: Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami defeated HIMAWARI & Riara (c) when Hasegawa submitted Riara with the Muffler Hold (8:38).

5. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku defeated Yuki Kamifuku, Mifu Ashida & Kira Summer when Aino pinned Summer with the Venus DDT (9:34).
6. Yuki Arai, Rika Tatsumi, Miu Watanabe & Moka Miyamoto defeated Mizuki, Shoko Nakajima, Hyper Misao & Suzume when Arai pinned Mizuki with the Finally (15:36).

Yokohama played host to a big preview for “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” where all of the champions faced against their challengers in an 8-Woman Tag Match. Before it began Hyper Misao complained about Daydream bringing sasumata poles to the ring again and Rika Tatsumi promised not to use them. But when Misao started using her Hero Spray on the other team, Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe broke their promise and used the poles to attack Kyoraku Kyomei with. Meanwhile Suzume got the upper hand against Moka Miyamoto, ending their exchange with a low range Ring A Bell. The match switched focus over to Mizuki against Yuki Arai. Others still got in the middle of their fight and Arai ultimately took advantage of the situation. Miyamoto blocked Mizuki’s Cutie Special attempt and tried to give her the Korokan. Mizuki escaped from the move but left herself completely open to Arai hitting her with the Finally, scoring a big pinfall victory over her!

Arai celebrated her first win over Mizuki with the rest of her team. She always thought you shouldn’t challenge someone for a championship if you’ve never beaten them previously so today she can now see herself winning the Princess Of Princess Title at Ota Ward Gymnasium even more clearly. Miyamoto said that was her last preliminary match in Japan but she still has warm up matches coming up for the USA tour. Tatsumi & Watanabe pointed out that every summer is a Daydream summer because they always happen to be in some kind of championship match during this time of the year. The champions are now licking their wounds and regrouping. Shoko Nakajima promised that Kyoraku Kyomei will have a secret weapon of their own to combat Daydream’s sasumatas. Suzume will take this loss as a lesson to get through the USA tour. Mizuki wants to make a comeback from this spot they are in right now.

At some point during the day of the show, Riara found Sanshiro Takagi sitting backstage and suffocated him with a plastic bag to win the Iron Man Heavymetalweight Title! So when she showed up for her match both Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami were confused to see her carrying the belt with her. Hasegawa ended up submitted Riara to win the tag match and therefore become the new Iron Man Champ! She said even though it is a singles title she couldn’t have won it without Toribami’s help so she would like to think they are sharing it. She also hopes to hold onto it long enough that she will get to defend it in her retirement match on Tuesday.

Round 2 of the Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League began today. This is the last stage before the proper tournament starts so whoever wins went through to fill in the final spots. Ivy Steele had the size and power advantage over Haru Kazashiro but the teenager knocked her down with a 2nd Rope Missile Dropkick and was able to pin her with the Fisherman Suplex. Kazashiro was happy to have the match with Steele because they haven’t crossed paths much before today. She now wants to make her summer a great one and this was her first step towards making it happen. Steele hoped she was going to win today because Yokohama Radiant Hall is where she made her Tokyo Joshi Pro debut. She thinks she focused too much on her future and wasn’t able to concentrate on today’s match. She also didn’t expect Kazashiro to have the strength to Fisherman Suplex her so only concentrated on countering her submission holds.

Wakana Uehara stamped her way to the main tournament by defeating Shino Suzuki. A stubborn Suzuki wanted to beat her with the Sleeper Hold but Uehara broke free and made her give up to the Banana Pillow. Uehara praised Suzuki for being the most reckless and hard working out of anyone in TJPW so she was happy to fight her today. They’re going to have a rematch in Houston next week so she’ll be focused on looking out for Suzuki’s reckless Sleeper Hold. Backstage Suzuki said she usually cries after losses like these but she realizes if she does that again in her third year as a wrestler she will never make progress. She really wants to change that because there is so much she knows she can do.

TJPW will be starting up a women’s pro wrestling class for beginners at their dojo this August. The Joshi Pro Wrestling Camp will have Miyu Yamashita and Shoko Nakajima as the two regular instructors with others filling in whenever they go wrestle abroad. The plan is to hold these classes on weekends when there are no TJPW shows on.

Speaking of Hasegawa’s graduation, her good buddy Riara is showing up to face her inside a Tokyo Joshi Pro ring.

The winners of Wakana Uehara versus Shino Suzuki and Haru Kazashiro versus Ivy Steele will qualify for the Tokyo Princess Cup.

Maki Itoh will be missing the show due to a scheduling conflict. It is not wrestling related, I believe she is appearing at a LinQ concert that day because a member of that group is graduating.

Tokyo Ueno Park Outdoor Stage

1. Special Single Match: TAKA Michinoku Vs MIKAMI

Plans have changed and Sanshiro Takagi has decided to rebrand his 30th Anniversary spin-off brand. Gone is MatchMake & Agent Pro Wrestling and taking its place is Super Japan Pro Wrestling! Takagi wants to imagine what it would be like if the wrestling promotion he helped form in 1997 was named Super Japan instead of Dramatic Dream Team. Part of that vision is getting one of DDT’s other founders MIKAMI to take part in the debut show. He will face the similarly aged TAKA Michinoku in what might be Super Japan’s inaugural match.

Also announced for the show are Kuroshio TOKYO Japan, The Brahman Brothers, Fuminori Abe and Ippanjin Munenori Sawa. Takagi and The Brahmans all want Yuji Nagata to be on the show but he keeps turning them down.

2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 2: X Vs X

Earlier today Rise Shirai brought the eight remaining wrestlers in the Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League together to take part in a draw to determine who faces who in Round 2. The winners of these four matches will qualify for the actual Princess Cup, filling in the four remaining spots. The lottery came up with these four matches:

-. Moka Miyamoto Vs Kaya Toribami
-. Haru Kazashiro Vs Ivy Steele
-. Wakana Uehara Vs Shino Suzuki
-. Pom Harajuku Vs HIMAWARI

It has not been decided yet which matches will take place when. Two will be held at the 5th July show in Yokahama Radiant Hall and the remaining two takes place in Shinjuku FACE on 8th July. The match placements will take the rest of the show cards into consideration. For example maybe Moka Miyamoto will have another match with Suzume in Yokohama to build up their upcoming title match so that would mean Miyamoto’s qualifier against Kaya Toribami would have to take place in Shinjuku.

1. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Wakana Uehara defeated Kira Summer with the Banana Pillow (6:56).
2. 12th Tokyo Princess Cup Preliminary League – Round 1: Ivy Steele defeated Toga with the Modified Pumphandle Slam (8:33).
3. Yoshiko Hasegawa defeated Uta Takami with the Muffler Hold (7:17).
4. Raku & Shino Suzuki defeated Maki Itoh & Ren Konatsu when Raku pinned Konatsu with the Doctor Yellow (9:03).
5. Suzume & Arisu Endo defeated Moka Miyamoto & Kaya Toribami when Suzume pinned Miyamoto with the Ring A Bell (11:49).
6. Rika Tatsumi & Miu Watanabe defeated Shoko Nakajima & Chika Nanase when Tatsumi submitted Nanase with the Dragon Sleeper (12:33).
7. Mizuki, Hyper Misao, Yuki Aino & Pom Harajuku defeated Yuki Arai, Mahiro Kiryu, HIMAWARI, Haru Kazashiro when Harajuku pinned Kazashiro with the Pom de Justice (12:21).

Today was Sayuri Namba’s graduation from Tokyo Joshi Pro. But before her last day with the company was done, Hyper Misao had a request for her in the main event. Misao asked Namba to do her own superhero introduction but it was all so Misao could stick a spray can in her hand and force her to blind the other team with it. Namba was too scared to stop and ended up spraying the can towards everybody. Mizuki & Yuki Aino brought the ring bell and hammer into the ring and held them out for Namba to officially start the match while Misao was pinning Haru Kazashiro. Namba rang the bell and Kazashiro kicked out at two. The match got more serious when Mizuki and Yuki Arai fought each other while HIMAWARI was able to handle what Misao was giving her. Misao blinded Kiryu with the spray and tagged out to Pom Harajuku. She screamed in Mahiro Kiryu’s face and Kiryu told her to shut up afterward. Instead of apologizing, she instead tagged in Kazashiro. The match broke down into all eight wrestlers fighting in the ring. Mizuki’s team got the upper hand with all four of them hitting signature moves on their opponents. Harajuku then gave Kazashiro the Pom de Justice to get the win.

Harajuku had tears of joy because she got to do the post-match winner’s call today. She invited Namba into the ring but Namba said Pom crying is going to make her cry too. Harajuku said she is sad Namba is graduating but she is doing it with a goal for the future and that will motivate Harajuku to push herself towards her own goals. Namba noticed that Harajuku was wearing the costume from her debut match seven years ago. She then talked about starting out in TJPW around the same time as when Harajuku, Kiryu and Haruna Neko were trainees so to her it is like they are all the same age. The time Namba spent in TJPW is a treasure she will cherish forever and she owes it to everyone in the company for making it such a sparkling time. She was gifted with a bouquet by Aino and Raku. Suzume and Kiryu then gave her a commemorative album. Kiryu wanted to wipe the tears away from Namba’s face but used a water-soluble tissue that left bits of paper behind so Aino had to carefully clean them off Namba. Everyone then gathered in the ring around Namba so they could all announce her name together to officially end her career as TJPW’s ring announcer. Nao Kakuta also appeared for Namba’s final group photo.

It’s been over a year since Daydream last teamed up together and they haven’t skipped a beat together. Rika Tatsumi thought it didn’t feel that long since they last teamed up but Miu Watanabe didn’t agree with her. What they do agree on is their chemistry was perfect as always. Tatsumi can see how much Watanabe has evolved away from her while Watanabe knows she can match up to Tatsumi’s needs better than anyone else. Daydream also used the sasumata poles to trap Shoko Nakajima again and Chika Nanase got caught in one this time too. Nakajima expected Daydream to do something unexpected and they exceeded her expectations today. Nanase worked hard to help her but Nakajima thinks she needs Misao with her to beat Daydream. She was asked by a reporter if she will come up with a countermeasure for the sasumata poles and she thinks it would be pointless to do so. Kyoraku Kyomei might bring a hidden weapon of their own or they might do the unthinkable and fight Daydream fair and square.

Suzume scored a clean pin on her upcoming challenger Moka Miyamoto. During their tag match the International Princess Champion countered the Korokan into a Backslide that moved into a low Ring A Bell. She then used a Flying Facecrusher followed by a full power Ring A Bell to score the three count for Daisy Monkey. She was happy to win the match by herself and get revenge for Miyamoto recently pinning her earlier this month. She was even happier to hear Namba announce her as the winner one last time. Miyamoto knows she is lacking a lot of things and said she will analyze them more heading into the title match.

There is a little sheep doll that Ren Konatsu clips to her belt and it caught Raku’s attention. She thinks it matches her outfit better so she took it off Konatsu and used it to power up her lullaby, sending Konatsu to sleep. She then used the doll on Maki Itoh while Shino Suzuki held her in place but the lullaby sent both of them to sleep too. Raku then accidentally turned the doll on herself, resulting on all four wrestlers napping in the ring. Fumirin counted a quadruple pin of everyone but they all woke up and kicked out at two. Raku then threw the doll out of the ring.

Yuki Kamifuku missed the show because of a foot injury. The 3 Way Match she was booked for instead became just Yoshiko Hasegawa against Uta Takami.

Despite a few delays the 1st Round in the Tokyo Princess Cup preliminary league has been completed in time. Today featured the last two matches of the opening round. Ivy Steele comes out of this competition with the biggest upset so far by beating Toga. It took Steele blocking the Rock Bottom and hitting a Snap Enzuigiri to Toga to get out of harm’s way. Steele then used a Spinning Pumphandle Back Drop to get the win. Steele said losing to Toga before prepared her for today and made her work hard for the victory. Toga thought she would win today but realizes that was a bit arrogant of her to think that way. In the other match Wakana Uehara made Kira Summer submit to the Banana Pillow. Uehara doesn’t know who to expect in Round 2 but she wants to beat whoever it is to qualify for the Princess Cup. Summer tried to be more aggressive than usual but it didn’t work this time. She wants to continue getting more aggressive so the next time she will win.

It was announced that TeaDK, the team of Chris Brookes & Emi Sakura will return to TJPW for “SUMMER SUN PRINCESS ’25” on 21st July. Their opponents are to be determined.
