Tokyo Joshi Pro ran a Uta Takami hometown event today in Ishikawa for the first time today in her young career.
Today’s event was held at Kanazawa Distribution Hall in Ishikawa and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Tuesday. There was no live broadcast. I hoped to do near-live results earlier but results were not provided.
The announced paid attendance was 256, a full house/near sellout.
Match 1: Shino Suzuki beat Ren Konatsu by submission.
Match 2: Suzume beat Mifu Ashida.
Match 3: Rika Tatsumi, Raku & Pom Harajuku beat Hyper Misao, DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Mahiro Kiryu & Kaya Toribami, with Tatsumi beating Kiryu to win the title. Tatsumi becomes the 1786th Champion.
Match 4: Yuki Arai beat Kira Summer.
Match 5: Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara beat Yuki Aino & Chika Nanase. Uehara pinned Nanase after Sushi Tornado.
Match 6: Mizuki & Toga beat Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro. Mizuki pinned Kazashiro with Cutie Special.
Main Event: Shoko Nkajima & HIMAWARI beat Miu Watanabe & Uta Takami. Nakajima pinned Takami with a Northern Lights suplex hold. So much for the hometown girl getting the main event win as tends to be the case.
The next event is a doubleheader Monday (tomorrow night US time) at Itabashi Green Hall in Tokyo. There will be no live broadcasts. On demand Thursday for the first event and Friday for the second event.
In other news, the promotion announced the next challenger for the MLW Women’s Featherweight Championship held by Nakajima will be Alexis Lee. That match will happen on 12/13 in Bangkok, Thailand. Also announced for that event is IWA Japan SETUP World Tag Team Champions Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami vs. Raku & Pom Harajuku for the titles.
