Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling 6/28/25 LIVE Results

Tokyo Joshi Pro holds their latest TJPW INSPIRATION event today, continuing the series of occasional (usually 2-3 times a year) series of special off-beat events focused on match types not normally seen in the promotion. These events focus more on comedy matches and outside participation along with special guest appearances-in this case it’s former TJPW favorite Nao Kakuta, who retired last year, who will be a special referee for one match today. It will also be the official debut for Rise Shirai as the new ring announcer…but if you missed the news yesterday, although she is now on her way to Canada former ring announcer Sayuri Namba will be coming back for all the US events in July in Texas.

Today’s event will be held at Tokyo Square in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will be no commentary. These are shorter events than regular TJPW events and there are just 5 matches planned, but one is a 3 minute exhibition match, so the event will only go a little over an hour, probably around 75 minutes.

Today’s lineup (match order TBA):
Mizuki & Miu Watanabe vs. Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami
Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase vs. Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami. Nao Kakuta is special referee
Suzume & Arisu Endo vs. Gabai G-chan & Mahiro Kiryu
Exhibition Match: Ai Shimizu vs. Yoshiko Hasegawa
Shoko Nakajima vs. Ren Konatsu

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET. The live stream is scheduled to begin 15 minutes before the event.

7:45 PM PT UPDATE: The live stream has begun. We should be going to the venue in 10-15 minutes.

8 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Tokyo Square in Tokyo, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The initial setup posted on TJPW’s website was for, by my count, a max capacity of 214. I could see a number of empty seats on one side from the initial overhead camera shot and the layout was subject to change. I’m guessing it’ll be closer to 125. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 214, a super full house/very near sellout. That was the estimated original setup total but there clearly were visible empty seats so either not a legit number or there were no-shows)

The matches should begin shortly. The exhibition match will be first. Rise Shirai makes her official ring announcer debut today. No Up Up Girls.

The matches begin at 8:10 PM PT/11:10 PM ET. Hard camera is at an unusual corner angle on the west side.

Match 1: Exhibition Match: Ai Shimizu vs. Yoshiko Hasegawa. 3 minute time limit
Result: Time Limit Draw. Noteworthy moment about a minute in when Shimizu did the old Undertaker-style rope walk across just under half the distance around the ring.

Match 2: Shoko Nakajima vs. Ren Konatsu. 15 minute time limit
Result: Shoko Nakajima beat Ren Konatsu by submission

Match 3: Suzume & Arisu Endo vs. Gabai G-chan & Mahiro Kiryu. 20 minute time limit
Result: Suzume & Arisu Endo beat Gabai G-chan & Mahiro Kiryu. Suzume pinned Kiryu after Ring A Bell.

Match 4: Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase vs. Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami. Nao Kakuta is special referee. 20 minute time limit
Result: Tae Honma & Miyuki Takase beat Yoshiko Hasegawa & Kaya Toribami. Takase beat Hasegawa with an armbar.

Main Event: Mizuki & Miu Watanabe vs. Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami. 20 minute time limit
Result: Mizuki & Miu Watanabe beat Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami. Mizuki pinned Kazashiro with Cutie Special. Mizuki continues her subtle heel turn and gets more boos as her hopefully losing the Princess Of Princess Championship to Yuki Arai draws closer.

The next event is 7/5 at Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin Friday at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET.

UPDATE: It has been announced that SUMMER SIN PRINCESS ’25 on 7/21 will also be a live ABEMA broadcast in Japan. It will also be live worldwide on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. Also added to 7/21 is Chris Brookes (DDT) & Emi Sakura vs. Maki Itoh & El Desperado (New Japan).

New Japan News: Changes Due To Absences, More

New Japan has announced some changes to upcoming events today:

First, El Phantasmo is off the next 2 events. Right knee injury that kept him off this week’s earlier events. Status uncertain for Sunday where he is supposed to defend the NJPW WORLD TV Championship vs. TBA (open challenge).

Second, Don Fale is off the rest of the current tour. Death in his family. He was to have been in a G1 CLIMAX 35 Qualifier on 7/4 against Ryohei Oiwa. Satoshi Kojima is the replacement. This could mean Fale will be out until after the G1 ends in mid-August. The winner of Kojima-Oiwa is in the tournament.

In other news, after being forced to wait for his IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship match until after yesterday’s PPV, Kosei Fujita finally gets El Desperado for the title. That match will happen on 7/6 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. Also set for 7/6 is IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Sho & DOUKI vs. Yoh & Master Wato for the titles, an immediate rematch from DOMINION. On that day there also will be Hiroshi Tabahashi vs. Tiger Mask on the latest Tanahashi Retirement Road match, which is also a TM 4 30th Anniversary match.

Announced for 7/4 at Tokyo Budokan in Tokyo (it’s not Nippon Budokan) is NEVER 6-Man Tag Team Champions Sho, Yujiro Takahashi & Ren Narita vs. Toru Yano, Yoh & Master Wato for the titles. That joins IWGP Global Champion Gabriel Kidd vs. Hiroshi Tanahashi for the title as title matches on that day.

Today’s event was held at Osaka Prefectural Gym 2 in Osaka and can be watched on demand on Stardom World. You can also watch the first match FOR FREE on YouTube.

The announced paid attendance was 503.

There were last-minute changes to the card due to the removal of Suzu Suzuki from the event. Family reasons. Out indefinitely.

Match 4: Ami Sohrei & Ranna Yagami beat Akira Kurogame & Bozilla and Konami & Rina in a 3-way when Sohrei pinned Kurogame. (Bozilla joined the promotion at last weekend’s PPV. I believe she previously was in Marigold but is now part of Suzu Suzuki’s Mi Vida Loca faction)

The next event is Friday at Chres Gym in Kochi. There will be no live broadcast.

UPDATE: Based on happenings at this event, it sounds like Kamitani’s next challenger for the World Of Stardom Championship will be Natsupoi. When is TBA but with the 5STAR GP beginning next month I’m guessing either 7/6 or 7/24, which are both at Korakuen Hall in TOkyo.

UPDATE 2: Next up for Hanan & Iida: Based on the challenge after the main event, Natsuko Tora & Ruaka. When also TBA.

There also will be a H.A.T.E. Produced event to mark the faction’s first anniversary on 7/20 at Sapporo Asti Hall in Hokkaido. There likely will be no matches and will be more of a talk show and fan photo op event.
