Injury Report: No Toga Party Again

Tokyo Joshi Pro has announced last-minute changes to tomorrow’s event because, as the pun hints at, Toga is now off the event. The always-vague poor health. She was to have teamed with Ren Konatsu to face Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara. Raku is the replacement, but she was to have faced Hyper Misao & Shino Suzuki in a 3-way. That’s now a single match.

Sumo-September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 13 Results (9/26/25)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 13-Championship Day-of the September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament in Tokyo:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, Y-Yokozuna, J-Juryo, Ms-Makushita, Sd-Sandanme, Jd-Jonidan, Jk-Jonokuchi

Makuuchi (top tier):
Chiyoshoma (J2) beat Shonannoumi (M15)
Tomokaze (M16) beat Sadanoumi (M14)
Shishi (M18) beat Churanoumi (M14)
Asakoryu (M14) beat Daieisho (M10)
Hitoshi (M17) beat Fujinokawa (M9)
Midorifuji (M9) beat Nishikigi (M16)
Kinbozan (M8) beat Tobizaru (M15)
Ura (M8) beat Tokihayate (M13)
Mitakeumi (M12) beat Oshoma (M7)
Kusano (M6) beat Roga (M11)
Meisei (M13) beat Ichiyamamoto (M5)
Atamifuji (M3) beat Gonoyama (M3)
Oho (M2) beat Ryuden (M17)
Hakuoho (M3) beat Onokatsu (M6)
Abi (M1) beat Kotoshoho (M5)
Hiradoumi (M4) beat Tamawashi (M1)
Aonishiki (K) beat Takanosho (M7)
Takayasu (K) beat Wakamotoharu (M4)
Kirishima (S) beat Shodai (M11)
Kotozakura (O) beat Hosboryu (Y)
Onosato (Y) beat Wakatakakage (S)
Leader: Onosato (12-1)
of note: This changes everything. Hoshoryu has now lost 2 straight matches, a perfect 15-0 chance, the lead, and tomorrow the championship if he loses and Onosato wins. Hoshoryu needs Kotozakura to play spoiler again by beating Onosato and he needs to beat Wakatakakage. If both Yokozuna win, their Final Day showdown means Hoshoryu would force a playoff rematch if he wins, Onosato would be champion if he wins. But an Onosato loss tomorrow also means Takanosho & Aonishiki can still force playoffs too.

Juryo:
Kyokukaiyo (J13) beat Takakento (Ms2)
Takarafuji (J13) beat Kitanowaka (Ms1)
Nishinoryu (J14) beat Tsurugisho (J9)
Hatsuyama (J8) beat Shiden (J14)
Hidenoumi (J8) beat Asasuiryu (J12)
Kayo (J6) beat Hakuyozan (J10)
Fujiseiun (J5) beat Kotokuzan (J8)
Tochitaikai (J7) beat Tamashoho (J5)
Shirokuma (J9) beat Mita (J4)
Kagayaki (J4) beat Tohakuryu (J6)
Nishikifuji (J3) beat Asanoyama (J13)
Kotoeiho (J2) beat Miyanokaze (J10)
Asahakuryu (J12) beat Oshoumi (J1)
Kazekeno (J11) beat Daiseizan (J1)
Leader: Asahakuryu (11-2)
Of note: Aside from Mita now out of championship contention, and perhaps top tier promotion, by falling to 8-5, the title race remains unsettled as both Asanoyama and Nishikifuji remain one back at 10-3. The latter has probably clinched promotion back to the top tier although Chiyoshoma may be a factor as his top tier win today also clinched promotion for him at J2.
Asahakuryu can win the championship tomorrow if he beats Kagayaki, Fujiseiun beats Asanoyama and Nishikifuji-who will be in the top tier-loses to Asakoryu. Interesting to see if the top tier Takasago man will be able to help his stablemate clinch…and there still could be a playoff between the Asas.

Makushita:
Shimazuumi (Ms20) beat Daiyusho (Ms50). SHIMAZUUMI MAKUSHITA YUSHO!!! First career championship. Will have a chance at promotion back to Juryo but it will depend on other promotions/demotions.

Other Makushita note: Enho did not have his last match today. Looks like it will be on the Final Day. He has clinched promotion at 4-2 but a 5th win would mean a bigger move up the rankings.

Sandanme:
Kazuma (Sd26) beat Seiyu (Sd54). KAZUMA SANDANME YUSHO!!! 2nd career championship and 1st Sandanme. And the only reason he’s not in Makushita or higher given hos 24-2 career record is, after withdrawing post-promotion in his July 2024 debut, he missed the next 4 tournaments. He is 20-1 since returning.

Jonidan:
Teraosho (Jd99) beat Buomaru (Jd73)
Kaki (Jd44) beat Okada (Jd22). PLAYOFF!!! It will be Teraosho vs. Kaki for the championship on the Final Day. A playoff was guaranteed due to 4 unbeatens remaining entering today, and they were paired against each other.

Jonokuchi:
Tatsubayama (Jk24) beat Chiyokozan (Jk15). TATSUBAYAMA JONOKUCHI YUSHO!!! First career championship in debut tournament.

Reminder: NHK World Japan will have 50 minutes of LIVE top tier coverage with both Yokozuna matches FOR FREE tomorrow beginning at 1:10 AM PT/4:10 AM ET.

Result: World Of Stardom Champion Saya Kamitani beat STRONG Women’s Champion AZM to win the STRONG title and retain the World Of Stardom Title. Kamitani becomes the 6th STRONG Women’s Champion. World Of Stardom V6 for Kamitani. Guess there’s some rioting on the Twitter going on because some poor suckers refuse to Embrace The H.A.T.E. Bow Down Before Your PHENEX QUEEN! As soon as AZM was sent off, Momo Watanabe hit the ring. She has a title shot of her choice in hand for winning the 5STAR GP, and it’s cash-in time. Sounds like she wants the STRONG title. Updates to come hopesully soon.

Sumo-September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 12 Results (9/25/25) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 12 of the September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament in Tokyo:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, Y-Yokozuna, J-Juryo

Makuuchi (top tier):
Kotoeiho (J2) beat Tomokaze (M16)
Yokihayate (M13) beat Nishikigi (M16)
Shishi (M18) beat Mitakeumi (M12)
Ryuden (M17) beat Shodai (M11)
Roga (M11) beat Hitoshi (M17)
Midorifuji (M9) beat Asakoryu (M14)
Fujinokawa (M9) beat Shonannoumi (M15)
Ura (M8) beat Tobizaru (M15)
Sadanoumi (M14) beat Kinbozan (M8)
Oshoma (M7) beat Meisei (M13)
Churanoumi (M10) beat Kusano (M6)
Daieisho (M10) beat Ichiyamamoto (M5)
Atamifuji (M3) beat Kotoshoho (M5)
Wakamotoharu (M4) beat Oho (M2)
Tamawashi (M1) beat Hakuoho (M2)
Gonoyama (M3) beat Abi (M1)
Takaysu (K) beat Hiradoumi (M4)
Wakatakakage (S) beat Onokatsu (M6)
Takanosho (M7) beat Kotozakura (O)
Onosato (Y) beat Kirishima (S)
Aonishiki (K) beat Hosboryu (Y)
Leader: Hoshoryu, Onosato (11-1)
Of note: No potential zensho yusho. Aonishiki spoiled Hoshoryu’s 15-0 bid and handed the Yokozuna the first loss, meaning both Yokozuna are now co-leaders. But there’s still Takanosho lurking in the spoiler role at 10-2 after all but yaking Kotozakura out of contention, leaving the Ozeki at 8-4. Elsewhere, nobody will go winless as Gonoyama finally managed to get a win by beating Abi.
Tomorrow Hosboryu faces Kotozakura yhen Onosato has Wakatakakage. Takanosho gets the trouble spot tomorrow as his opponent is Aonishiki.

Juryo:
Miyanokaze (J10) beat Kazekeno (J11)
Asanoyama (J13) beat Tsurugisho (J9)
Kyokukaiyu (J13) beat Hatsuyama (J8)
Kotokuzan (J8) beat Nishinoryu (J14)
Shiden (J14) beat Tamashoho (J7)
Asahakauryu (J11) beat Hidrnoumi (J7)
Kayo (J6) beat Shirokuma (J9)
Kagayaki (J4) beat Takarafuji (M12)
Asasuiryu (J13) beat Mita (J4)
Tochitaikai (J5) beat Nishikifuji (J3)
Chiyoshoma (J2) beat Fujiseiun (J5)
Daiseizan (J1) beat Hakuyozan (J10)
Oshoumi (J1) beat Tohakuryu (J6)
Leader: Asanoyama, Asahakuryu (10-2)
Of note: And suddenly it’s a Takasago championship to lose as Mita has slumped to 8-4 and Asanoyama & Asahakuryu have taken control of the race, which could set up a playoff between them. Would the rookie or the popular veteran win? Elsewhere, the Takarafuji talk about his future can now commence again as he will be demoted, although at least 2 wins in his last 3 (or winning out) should keep the veteran in Juryo.
The Asas can all but seal the deal tomorrow when Asanoyama faces Noshikifuji and Asahakuryu faces Oshoumi. If they both win, they would be 11-2 and 2 wins ahead with 2 to go. At the bottom, the Makushita men will be up for the first time this tournament as Kitanowaka-who will be promoted back to Juryo in November-and Takakento-already promoted but a win would give him a better chance at a Juryo return from Ms2 with a 5-2 record-face Juryo opponents and ironically Kitanowaka could be the one ending Takarafuji’s career with a win.

Injury Report: 2 NOAH Injuries Confirmed

As you may have seen Tuesday, 2 Pro Wrestling NOAH wrestlers appeared to suffer injuries during the event-Daiki Inaba and YO-HEY. Those have now been confirmed. Inaba-dislocated right hip. YO-HEY-torn left medial meniscus (knee). Both out indefinitely. I think it’s safe to say YO-HEY is done for the year and longer but Inaba could be back sooner.

News: 2025 PWI 500 Announced

It’s that time of year again-Pro Wrestling Illustrated magazine yesterday announced this year’s edition of the PWI 500, ranking the top 500 wrestlers in all of pro wrestling.

That being said, if you want to see how Japanese wrestlers ranked (as well as the top 10 overall), and don’t mind potential SPOILERS, click below to find out!

New Japan wrapped up their fall Hokkaido tour today with the final event of the series.

Today’s event was held at Kita Gas Arena Sapporo 46 in Hokkaido and can be watched on demand on New Japan World.

The announced paid attendance was 2038.

Pre-show match: Zane Jay & Masatora Yasuda beat Tatsuya Matsunoto & Katsuya Murashima. Yasuda pinned Matsumoto.

Match 1: Hiroshi Tanahashi beat Master Wato.

Match 2: Tomoaki Honma, Toru Yano & Togo Malabe beat Shoma Kato, Ryusuke Taguchi & Tiger Mask. Makabe pinned Kato.

Matxh 5: Taiji Ishimori, David Finlay & Gabrie Kidd beat Hiromu Takahashi, Yota Tsuji & Shingo Takagi. Ishimori pinned Takahashi with Gedo Clutch. This could lead to a potential GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship match as Takahashi is the champion but that partly is up to Pro Wrestling NOAH.

Match 6: Yujiro Takahashi, SANADA & Ren Narita beat Hartley Jackson, Ryohei Oiwa & Zack Sabre Jr. by DQ. Jackson DQ’d. Guitar shot fake out by SANADA.

Match 7: IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions DOUKI & Sho beat Kosei Fujita & Robbie Eagles to retain the titles. DOUKI pinned Fujita. V2 for the champs.

Main Event: IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion El Desperado beat Yoh to retain the title. V8 for Desperado. Next up: Possibly DOUKI, who lost the title to Desperado due to injury.

Sumo-September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament Day 11 Results (9/24/25) (Top 2 Tiers)

Here are the quick results from today’s Day 11 of the September 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament in Tokyo:
Key: M-Maegashira, K-Komusubi, S-Sekiwake, O-Ozeki, Y-Yokozuna, J-Juryo

Makuuchi (top tier):
Hitoshi (M17) beat Daiseizan (J1)
Shoshi (M18) beat Sadanoumi (M14)
Shonannoumi (M15) beat Meisei (M13)
Mitakeumi (M12) beat Asakoryu (M14)
Churanoumi (M10) beat Tobizaru (M15)
Tokihayate (M13) beat Midorifuji (M9)
Kinbozan (M8) beat Nishikigi (M16)
Tomokaze (M16) beat Ura (M8)
Oshoma (M7) beat Roga (M11)
Takanosho (M7) beat Ryuden (M17)
Daieisho (M10) beat Onokatsu (M6)
Fujinokawa (M9) beat Ichiyamamoto (M5)
Kusano (M6) beat Hiradoumi (M4)
Oho (M2) beat Hakuoho (M2)
Abi (M1) beat Atamifuji (M3)
Tamawashi (M1) beat Gonoyama (M3)
Shodai (M11) beat Aonishiki (K)
Kotoshoho (M5) beat Wakatakakage (S)
Kotozakura (O) beat Wakamotoharu (M4)
Hoshoryu (Y) beat Kirishima (S)
Onosato (Y) beat Takayasu (K)
Leader: Hoshoryu (11-0)
Of note: 3 more to go until the potential first Yokozuna Showdown that could be for the championship. Onosato is still doing his part, now alone at 10-1. Kotozakura also clinched his 4th straight winning record, but all ended with 8-7 records so let’s hope for more with the Ozeki at 8-3, still with slim title hopes. Shodai remains a contender at 9-2 along with Takanosho. The Ozeki Watch is now officially over for Wakatakakage as he is 5-6 and can only get to 9-6.

Juryo:
Kazekeno (J11) beat Kyokukaiyu (J13)
Hakuyozan (J10) beat Takarafuji (J12)
Tsurugisho (J9) beat Miyanokaze (J10)
Shirokuma (J9) beat Shiden (J14)
Hatsuyama (J8) beat Nishinoryu (J14)
Asanoyama (J13) beat Hidenoumi (J7)
Tohakuryu (J6) beat Asasuiryu (J13)
Asahakuryu (J11) beat Mita (J4)
Kagayaki (J4) beat Kayo (J6)
Nishikofuji (J3) beat Kotokuzan (J8)
Chiyoshima (J2) beat Tamashoho (J7)
Tochitaikai (J5) beat Kotoeiho (J2)
Fujiseiun (J5) beat Oshoumi (J1)
Leader: Nishikifuji, Asahakuryu, Asanoyama (9-2)
Of note: Today is the first day Mita has not been the leader or co-leader as he’s dropped to 8-3, now it’s Nishikifuji with a decent chance to return to the top tier and a pair of Takasago men at the top. One more win should be enough for Nishikifuji to get that promotion. At the bottom, Kyokukaiyu is the first newcomer at risk of demotion back to Makushita, his best hope to stay in Juryo is win out and get to 7-8. We also have to wonder about Takarafuji’s future again, 4-7 at J12 means he must win out just to avoid demotion.

Lower tier notes: The Makushita Championship is set for Day 13 and will be Shimazuumi vs. Daiyusho. If Shimazuumi wins he will have a chance to return to the top tier from Ms20. Enho snapped his recent demotion streak with a win today, a 4-2 record means he will be promoted for the first time in 3 tournaments and move up the rankings in November, still Makushita but with at least hope for a January Juryo return (probably will require a championship). The Sandanme Championship is also set and will be Kazuma vs. Seiyu. The Jonidan may nerd a playoff with 4 still tied at 6-0, while in the Jonokuchi Tatsubayama is the sole leader at 6-0 and only needs to win his last match to be champion.
