As successful as Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first Texas visit went earlier this year, apparently all did not go as planned coning home. That’s part of the description for a “debriefing” talk show event announced today, to be held on 6/23 at Loft9 Shibuya in Tokyo. Scheduled participation is Yuki Arai, Miyu Yanashita, Mizuki, Arisu Endo and Yuki Aino. There will be no matches. In addition to in person, it will be streamed on Twitcasting as a PPV for 1500 Japanese yen (around $9.50 US) but, as an apparent fundraiser to cover wrestlers’ losses from issues returning to Japan, you can also pay 2000 yen (around $13 US) or 3000 yen (around $19 US) and those will go to the performers to help cover losses. 3000 yen ticket buyers will get photos from the event as a bonus, but maybe limited to those in Japan. In addition to the live broadcast at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET on the date, it will be available on demand until 7/7. A Twitcasting.tv account is required to buy and watch, it is free to make but some features require payment. Not sure about availability outside Japan.

Tokyo Joshi Pro resumed the spring 2026 house show tour today in Tokyo.

Today’s event was held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The announced paid attendance was 335, a full house/near sellout.

There was a late change to the card due to Shino Suzuki being pulled off the event. Unspecified injury/illness that has forced her to step away from everything indefinitely. She was to have faced Pom Harajuku & Mifu Ashida in a 3-way. Ie became a single match instead.

Match 1: Raku beat Kira Summer.

Match 2: Pon Harajuku beat Mifu Ashida.

Match 3: Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro beat Arisu Endo & Shion Kanzaki. Kazashiro pinned Kanzaki with a fishermans suplex hold.

Match 4: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao beat HIMAWARI & Ren Konatsu. Nakajima pinned Konatsu with a Northern Lights suplex hold.

Match 5: Miyu Yamashita & Sakura Hattori beat Toga & Chika Nanase. Yamashita pinned Nanase after Attitude Adjustment.

Main Event: Yuki Kamifuku, Mizuki, Uta Takami & Mahiro Kiryu beat Yuki Arai, Suzume, Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi. Kiryu pinned Suzume after a spinebuster. Afterwards, based on backstage comments it appeared Watanabe & Tatsumi tried to kidnap Mizuki but Takami made the save. Guess Daydream now has to out-wacky themselves after their Princess Tag Team Championship win last time out.

The next event is 5/30 at Osaka Azalea Taisho in Osaka. There will be no live broadcast. On demand 6/2.

Tokyo Joshi Pro wrestler Shino Suzuki just returned home to Shizuoka for a hometown event this past weekend. Unfortunately it was just announced that will be her last event for some time. She has been suffering from an unspecified physical condition for a long time and per a doctor needs rest and treatment. Out indefinitely but this is going to be weeks if not months. She also will not be taking part in any wrestling, idol and Up Up Girls activities and also will be off social media. This obviously has me quite worried because similar recently happened with Moka Miyamoto and it forced her to retire after winning the International Princess Championship last year (we never found out why), hopefully this will not be the case with Suzuki. Sending best wishes for a full recovery. When/if she can return will be announced by the promotion.

For the next event on Friday, changes have been made as she was to have faced Pom Harajuku & Mifu Ashida in a 3-way. It’s now a single match.

More as it becomes available.

Tokyo Joshi Pro ran a Suzume hometown event for the first time today in Ibaraki.

Today’s event was held at Tsukuba International Conference Center Multipurpose Hall in Ibaraki and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Sunday. There was no live broadcast.

The announced paid attendance was 310, a super full house/very near sellout.

Match 1: Yuki Aino beat Shion Kanzaki by submission.

During the post-match promo, Suzume was interrupted by an unexpected International Princess Championship challenger-to-be…Kiryu. Seriously?!? That match will happen on 6/7 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, and I pray Suzume retains.

The next event is 5/16 at Shimizu Marine Building in Shizuoka for a Shino Suzuki hometown event. Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Kamifuku will miss the event due to schedule conflicts. There will be no live broadcast. On demand 5/19.

YES! WONDERLAND, Tokyo Joshi Pro’s annual Golden Week blowout event, returns today after not being held last year in a surprise decision. It’s considered one of their biggest events of the year and as usual will feature all 3 titles being defended. First up will be the International Princess Championship as Suzume defends the title against Haru Kazashiro. Second, the Princess Tag Team Championship is on the line as Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi try to bring the titles back home and away from current champions Cassie Lee & Jessica McKay. Finally, the main event is the Princess Of Princess Championship as Yuki Arai makes her second defense against Arisu Endo. They are good friends who debuted together 5 years ago, and now their paths cross again in the ring with the top prize on the line.

It was announced previously that Mifu Ashida is off today’s event as well as the next event later this week. Schedule conflicts.

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE and ABEMA (separate UNIVERSE add-on required) in Japanese & English. Reina Seiji of J-Pop group NGT48 will be a special guest on Japanese commentary. There are 9 matches planned with no intermission and they are on a tight clock because of a DDT event a few hours later, so the longest the event could go is about 3 1/2 hours but I would expect it to be closer to 2 1/2 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Ren Konatsu vs. Shion Kanzaki
YuuRI, Wakana Uehara & Kira Summer vs. HIMAWARI, Shino Suzuki & Chika Nanase
Mizuki, Mei Suruga & Uta Takami vs. Yuki Aino, Raku & Pom Harajuku
Aja Kong & Yuki Kamifuku vs. Kakeru Sekiguchi & Mahiro Kiryu
Ryo Mizunami vs. Toga
Miyu Yamashita & Sakura Hattori vs. Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao
International Princess Champion Suzume vs. Haru Kazashiro for the title
Princess Tag Team Champions Cassie Lee & Jessica McKay vs. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi for the titles
Princess Of Princess Champion Yuki Arai vs. Arisu Endo for the title

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. It’s the usual reduced-capacity Korakuen setup using only 1/3 of the opposite-hard camera bleachers so while advance tickets ales were decent I’ll go with my usual Korakuen THPW prediction of around 750. And today we will also have STREAMERS!!! (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 1087, a full house/near sellout)

Match 8: Princess Tag Team Champions Cassie Lee & Jessica McKay vs. Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi for the titles. 30 minute time limit (during entrances/intros the onscreen graphic incorrectly called Lee “Cathy Lee”)
Result: Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi beat Princess Tag Team Champions Cassie Lee & Jessica McKay to win the titles. Watanabe & Tatsumi become the 21st Princess Tag Team Champions. Watanabe pinned Lee after Daydream And they are only the second team ever to win the titles twice or more (Yuka Sakazaki & Mizuki are the other with 3 reigns). Next up: Speaking of…much to my dismay, Mizuki. And Takami..It sounds like that match will happen on 6/7.

Main Event: Princess Of Princess Champion Yuki Arai vs. Arisu Endo for the title. 30 minute time limit
Result: Princess Of Princess Champion Yuki Arai beat Arisu Endo to retain the title. V2 for Arai. But it took 20+ grueling minutes…but I go home very happy. Next up…Kamifuku. Kamiyu Comin’ Through! The one Yuki that hasn’t had a shot at the title yet, at least in the roughly 6-7 years I’ve been following TJPW. Maybe the 6/7 main event, which at least means I have another month to enjoy Arai’s title reign.

The next event is Wednesday at Tsukuba International Conference Hall Multipurpose Hall in Ibaraki for a Suzume hometown event. There will be no live broadcast. On demand Sunday.

UPDATE: Both hinted-at title matches are now official for 6/7. Also, the trainee debuting soon was Momo Sato, who previously appeared a couple months ago. She is a J-pop idol and younger sister of DDT wrestler Daichi Sato.

UPDATE 2: The main event of Wednesday’s event MAY be streamed live on WRESTLE UNIVERSE via the Universe Cast feature. This will be a last-minute decision though.

Tokyo Joshi Pro ran a special WRESTLE UNIVERSE members-only event today, which was full of comedy matches and wrestlers appearing as other wrestlers.

Today’s event was held at Itabashi Green Hall in Tokyo and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Saturday. There was no live broadcast.

The announced paid attendance was 220, a legit advance sellout.

Instead of the usual opening announcement routines, referee Fumirin did the opening announcements and normal ring announcer Rise Shirai filled in for Up Up Girls.

Match 1: Sakura Hattori beat Shion Kanzaki.

Match 2: Toga beat Rika Tatsumi & Ren Konatsu in a 3-way by double countout.

Match 3: Mr. Mahi Rock (Mahiro Kiryu) won a 5-person battle royal, last eliminating John Shino (Shino Suzuki). Other participants: Shinsuke Wakanakamura (Wakana Uehara), Kira Ripley (Kira Summer), The Ashida Taker (Mifu Ashida). You can easily guess which WWE wrestlers they were spoofing.

Match 4: In a 1 Count Falls match where the winning team them had a chance to earn a point by correctly answering an elementary-school level trivia question, Miu Watanabe & Chika Nanase beat Arisu Endo & Haru Kazashiro 2-1.

Match 5: In an Indian Poker match, Hyper Misao beat Miyu Yamashita, Shoko Nakajima & Yuki Aino in a 4-way elimination match. Basically each player kept drawing cards that listed a move they could not do in addition to normal rules and last one left wins.

Main Event: In a Costume Change match where all wrestlers dressed up as someone else, Yuki Arai (as HIMAWARI), Mizuki (as Suzume), Yuki Kamifuku (as Raku) & Raku (as Yuki Aino) beat Suzume (as Mahiro Kiryu), Pom Harajuku (as Toga), HIMAWARI (as Mifu Ashida) & Uta Takami (as Mizuki).
