Tokyo Joshi Pro 8/2/25 LIVE Results

Tokyo Joshi Pro continues the Tokyo Princess Cup today in Shizuoka with the second half of Round 1. This will be a placeholder for results and will be updates when possible.

Today’s event will be held at Act City Hamamatsu in Shizuoka and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Monday. There will be no live broadcast, but there is a chance they will try to stream live FOR FREE on YouTube using an iPad but that depends on network conditions at the venue. Waiting on updates as to whether this will happen.

There has been a last-minute change to today’s card just before this was posted as Maki Itoh is now off. The always-vague poor health. She was to have teamed with Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Ivy Steele to face Miu Watanabe, Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku. Watanabe is the replacement and it will now be a handicap match of Aino/Raku/Harajuku vs. Watanabe/Summer/Nanase/Steele. She also has been added to 8/23 because while she was supposed to be on an international excursion that means she would not be in the Tokyo Princess Cup, she cancelled and won’t be going. On 8/23 she will face TBA, which will be one of the wrestlers already eliminated from the tournament so it could be any of the 14 that don’t make the Finals.

Today’s current lineup (match order TBA):
Suzume & Ren Konatsu vs. Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami
Mizuki, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Mahiro Kiryu & Kaya Toribami vs. Miyu Yamashita, Wakana Uehara, Toga & Mifu Ashida
Miu Watanabe, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Ivy Steele vs. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku in a handicap match
Tokyo Princess Cup:
HIMAWARI vs. Haru Kazashiro
Arisu Endo vs. Hyper Misao
Rika Tatsumi vs. Shoko Nakajima
Yuki Arai vs. Yuki Kamifuku

The event will begin at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET. I anticipate being able to start posting updates with results roughly 30 minutes after the event begins.

7:40 PM PT UPDATE: You will be able to watch the event LIVE FOR FREE on YouTube. Live stream only, no archived replay. Quality may vary and it’s scheduled to begin at the first match. As long as it holds up I will do live results. If you miss it live or there are problems preventing the stream from happening, on demand will be available on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Monday at 1 AM PT/4 AM ET.

8 PM PT UPDATE: The live stream was taken down at scheduled start time. It may be back in 10-15 minutes as it sounds like “first match” means after opening announcements and Up Up Girls.

8:03 PM PT UPDATE: It’s back up so…Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Act City Hamamtsu in Shizuoka, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The initial setup per TJPW’s website was for around 250 and what I can see is full although tickets were still available today. If that setup holds I’ll predict it’ll be around 200. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 288)

Up Up Girls starting as I join the live stream. Since it’s an iPad it will be a fixed camera view from about 5 rows back but initially the stream quality is very good. But once matches get going and the ring moves a lot it may lose focus briefly at times, it’s happened a few times already during Up Up Girls.

The matches begin at 8:13 PM PT/11:13 PM ET. Match order is mostly as above except the handicap match is 2nd, tag match is 3rd, for the tournament matches Tatsumi-Nakajima is the main event and Arai-Kamifuku will be 6th.

Match 1: Suzume & Ren Konatsu vs. Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami. 20 minute time limit
Result: Shino Suzuki & Uta Takami beat Suzume & Ren Konatsu. Suzuki pinned Konatsu after a belly-to-belly suplex.

Match 2: Miu Watanabe, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Ivy Steele vs. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku in a handicap match. 20 minute time limit
Result: Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku beat Miu Watanabe, Kira Summer, Chika Nanase & Ivy Steele. Aino pinned Steele after Venus DDT.

Match 3: Mizuki, Kakeru Sekiguchi (Independent/Freelancer), Mahiro Kiryu & Kaya Toribami vs. Miyu Yamashita, Wakana Uehara, Toga & Mifu Ashida. 20 minute time limit
Result: Mizuki, Kakeru Sekiguchi, Mahiro Kiryu & Kaya Toribami beat Miyu Yamashita, Wakana Uehara, Toga & Mifu Ashida. Mizuki beat Ashida with a crossface. Of note: Today is Ashida’s birthday so they sang for her early in the match.

Tokyo Princess Cup Round 1:
Match 4: HIMAWARI vs. Haru Kazashiro. No time limit
Result: Haru Kazashiro beat HIMAWARI. As a result, Kazashiro advances to the Quarterfinals and will face Miu Watanabe.

Match 5: Arisu Endo vs. Hyper Misao. No time limit
Result: Arisu Endo beat Hyper Misao. As a result, Endo advances to the Quarterfinals and will face Miyu Yamashita.

Match 6: Yuki Arai vs. Yuki Kamifuku. No time limit
Result: Yuki Arai beat Yuki Kamifuku. As a result, Arai advances to the Quarterfinals and will face Wakana Uehara.

Main Event: Rika Tatsumi vs. Shoko Nakajima. No time limit
Result: Shoko Nakajima beat Rika Tatsumi. As a result, Nakajima advances ot the Quarterfinals and will face Mizuki.

The Quarterfinals are 8/9 at Shinagawa Grand Hall in Tokyo.

For being a somewhat impromptu attempt at livestreaming the event on an iPad via YouTube, it went fairly well. For me there was only one brief instance of buffering/freezing and that came in the main event (I was watching in 1080p HD), it was only a fixed view so a few outside-the-ring spots on either side were missed (again one in the main event too) but to be able to get an event like this live when it was going to be on demand only, I’m not complaining. Thumbs up for the effort, I’d rate is an 8 out of 10. If you missed it live, it’ll be available on demand Monday.

The next event is a(nother) Hyper Misao Produced event Tuesday at Kitazawa Town Hall in Tokyo. There will be no live broadcast.

Sumo-July 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament Final Standings & News

With the post-tournament rankings meeting concluded, here are the final standings and post-event news from the July 2025 Grand Sumo Tournament:

First, here is the final Hoshitori, or tournament records based on the tournament rankings for the top 2 tiers, records are in win-loss-absent format, for ranking purposes absent is treated as a loss:
Makuuchi (top tier):
Yokozuna-Hoshoryu (1-4-10), Onosato (11-4)
Ozeki-Kotozakura (8-7)
Sekiwake-Daieisho (Absent), Kirishima (8-7), Wakatakakage (10-5)
Komusubi-Oshoma (3-12), Takayasu (10-5)
Maegashira 1-Aonishiki (11-4), Wakamotoharu (6-9)
Maegashira 2-Oho (7-8), Abi (9-6)
Maegashira 3-Onokatsui (6-9), Kinbozan (4-11)
Maegashira 4-Hakuoho (8-7), Tamawashi (11-4)
Maegashira 5-Hiradoumi (8-7), Meisei (3-12)
Maegashira 6-Takerufuji (5-8-2), Gonoyama (9-6)
Maegashira 7-Tobizaru (3-10-2), Endo (Absent)
Maegashira 8-Sadanoumi (4-11), Ichiyamamoto (9-6)
Maegashira 9-Ura (8-6-1), Chiyoshoma (1-14)
Maegashira 10-Atamifuji (11-4), Roga (7-8)
Maegashira 11-Takanosho (9-6), Tokihayate (6-9)
Maegashira 12-Midorifuji (9-6), Asakoryu (6-9)
Maegashira 13-Churanoumi (9-6), Shodai (9-6)
Maegashira 14-Kusano (11-4), Fujinokawa (10-5)
Maegashira 15-Kotoshoho (13-2, Tournament Champion), Hidenoumi (2-11-2)
Maegashira 16-Kayo (4-11), Mitakeumi (10-5)
Maegashira 17-Kotoeiho (6-9). Shishi (7-8)
Notes: Kotoshoho started 3-0 then lost 2 straight to fall to 3-2 but then won his last 10 to take his first Empteror’s Cup. He’ll go up to near the top of the Maegashira rankings in September, with a chance to surpass his career high rank of M3. It certainly didn’t hurt him that Ichiyamamoto, the dominant surprise in the first week-plus with a 9-1 start, then epic collapsed by losing his last 5. Runner-up Aonishiki will make his Sanyaku debut in September, the question is at Sekiwake or Komusubi because Takayasu has a chance at promotion with 10 wins while Daieisho’s latest Ozeki bid ended along with his iron man streak to begin his career due to injury. He’s out for September too so his record for time spent at or above M4 by a non-Yokozuna will also be over. The real Iron Man Tamawashi defied age again to manage 11 wins and being in contention until the final days, which could be rewarded with a Sanyaku return. Kusano’s top tier debut also saw him in title contention until the final day and he’ll make a nice move up the rankings alongside fellow rookie Fujinokawa, who managed 10 wins and a Special Prize. Wakatakakage is now back on Ozeki watch with 22 wins in Sanyaku the last 2 tournaments, so the unofficial magic number for promotion contention is 11. The likely demotions to Juryo are Shishi (toss-up), Hidenoumi, Kayo, Kotieiho and maybe Chiyoshoma & Endo. Tobizaru, Meisei and Sadanoumi are safe but at risk of demotion in September. Daieisho & Endo are almost certainly out for September while for now Takerufuji should be considered questionable, his current injury will keep him out until September 1. Also sounds like Chiyoshoma’s poor performance is in part due to still recovering from recent back surgery.
As for the Yokozuna & Ozeki, Hoshoryu had to withdraw again due to a toe injury, which will keep him out another 2-3 weeks. Onosato started well but struggled down the stretch, finishing 11-4 and thus no 3-peat and all 4 of his losses were kinboshi-conceding, which did not go over well with elders. Kotozakura protected his Ozeki rank again, but that’s 3 straight 8-7 efforts which is disappointing for an Ozeki.

Juryo:
Juryo 1-Nishikigi (8-7), Ryuden (8-7)
Juryo 2-Shonannoumi (10-5), Tomokaze (9-6)
Juryo 3-Oshoumi (8-7), Tamashoho (6-9)
Juryo 4-Tochitaikai (7-8), Shirokuma (5-10)
Juryo 5-Tohakuryu (7-8), Hakuyozan (4-11)
Juryo 6-Hitoshi (10-5), Daiseizan (10-5)
Juryo 7-Kagyaaki (9-6), Takarafuji (4-11)
Juryo 8-Kazekeno (5-10), Fujiseiun (9-6)
Juryo 9-Nishikifuji (10-3-2), Tsurugisho (7-8)
Juryo 10-Mitoryu (0-5-10), Nabatame (Absent)
Juryo 11-Shiden (6-9), Mita (11-4, Tournament Champion)
Juryo 12-Shimanoumi (3-12), Otsuji (4-11)
Juryo 13-Hatsuyama (10-5), Daiamami (6-9)
Juryo 14-Kotokuzan (10-5), Miyanokaze (8-7)
Notes: Mita probably won’t make it to the top tier with the championship, but expect him to be in position for promotion with a winning record in September. Nishikigi, Ryuden and Shonannoumi are headed back up to the top tier while Tomokaze has a chance to join them, Hitoshi & Daiseizan may be in the J1 slots if Mita isn’t (he’s J2 at worst). Had Nishikifuji not had to miss 3 days late for reasons I never found out, he may have won the championship and been returning to the top tier as well. At the bottom, Shimanoumi & Otsuji will be demoted along with Mitoryu & Nabatame, maybe Daiamami too. Miyanokaze secured his second-chance promotion at the end.

The Shin-Juryo and Sai-Juryo rikishi for September have been announced, and a big group makes up for nobody in the former this time…and there’s history because for the first time in over 45 years, 3 come from the same stable. The new debuts are Kyokukaiyu, Ishizaki, Asahakuryu (the Makushita Champion) and Nishinoryu while, as expected, Asanoyama is Sai-Juryo, finally making it back after his latest injury-fueled demotions. Ishizaki, Asahakuryu & Asanoyama are all from Takasago Beya and Ishizaki is already Kaimei as when his promotion was announced he also got a new shikona (ring name) and will be Asasuiryu. He is the real-life younger brother of Asakoryu, who was also Ishizaki before reaching Juryo.
The first batch of retirements were also announced, this time all are Jonidan or Jonokuchi with several rookies calling it quits after just one or two tournaments. There also was one unranked wrestler retiring. For now it sounds like Takarafuji will soldier on despite nearing losing salary as I still expect him to hang on until potentially being able to take over Isegahama Beya in January if Ternofuji/now-Isegahama does indeed leave then to open his own stable. There also will be a stablemaster change soon at Otake Beya as the current Otake must retire soon due to turning 65 (the mandatory retirement age in sumo). There are rumors though whoever takes over could just be keeping the seat warm for Oho when he eventually retires, as the stable originally was founded by Yokozuna Taiho, Oho’s real-life grandfather.
