Tokyo Joshi Pro continued the CITY CIRCUIT Tour today with an event in Tokyo, featuring Saki Akai’s final match in the promotion and, in all likelihood, the last match before her retirement match next weekend in DDT.

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

The announced paid attendance was 500, a legit advance sellout. 100% full.

It was announced in advance that Shoko Nakajima was off this event and the next event as well. US expedition.

Main Event: Saki Akai Last TJPW Match: Saki Akai & Yuki Kamifuku beat Rika Tatsumi & Hyper Misao. Akai pinned Misao after Quetzalcoatl. Which led to…
Impromptu Match: In a handicap match, Saki Akai beat the entire TJPW roster that was present for the event (23 people) by beating Hyper Misao. Afterwards, the roster gave Akai her final sendoff including the customary flowers and group photo in the ring as Akai encouraged them to keep moving TJPW forward and to be her motto-Strong, Noble, Beautiful. She then took a final bow for the second time today at the venue to say farewell to Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling. On to her retirement match…

In upcoming event announcements, Impact Wrestling’s Masha Slamovich is coming to TJPW in January. She will face Miyu Yamashita for the Princess Of Princess Championship on 1/4 and then Hikari Noa in a death match on 1/6, which will be a TJPW INSPIRATION event.

The next event is Sunday at Shimizu Marine Building in Shizuoka. There will be no live broadcast.

According to the Twitter accounts for Pro Wrestling EVE and current champion Max The Impaler. Tokyo Joshi Pro’s International Princess Championship will be defended in England at the 11/10 EVE event when Max The Impaler faces Kasey for the title.
