WRESTLE PRINCESS 4, Tokyo Joshi Pro’s most important annual event, is now in the books.
Today’s event was held at Tama Mirai Messe in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.
The announced paid attendance was 868, a super full house/very near sellout. Almost standing room only as only unreserved seats were available before the event.
Match 1: Runa Okubo beat Haru Kazashiro.
Match 2: Arisu Endo, Kaya Toribami & HIMAWARI beat HARUKAZE, Yoshiko Hasegawa & Riara (Ganbare Women). Endo beat Hasegawa with a camel clutch.
Match 3: Moka Miyamoto beat Juria Nagano.
Match 4: Aja Kong, Raku & Shino Suzuki beat Hyper Misao, Wakana Uehara & Toga. Kong pinned Uehara after a backdrop.
The 6-Woman Tag Match participants for DDT’s 11/12 event at Ryogoku Kokugikan were announced: It’s Yuki Arai (YES!!!), Moka Miyamoto & Shino Suzuki vs. Suzume, Arisu Endo & Wakana Uehara. Having Arai in the match makes sense given it’s Saki Akai’s retirement event…one last helping of AA Eye Candy please!
Match 5: Miu Watanabe & Yuki Arai beat Ryo Mizunami & Yuki Aino. Arai pinned Aino after Finally.
Match 6: Sakisama (Saki Akai), May Saint-Michel, Yukio Saint-Laurent (Yukio Sakaguchi) & Martha beat Shoko Nakajima, Suzume, Pom Harajuku & Antonio Honda (DDT). Sakisama pinned Harajuku after Academy Awards. This likely is the final time we’ll see NEO Bishiki-gun in TJPW. They will be missed.
Major announcement…GRAND PRINCESS ’24 returns to Ryogoku Kokugikan on March 31!
Match 7: Nyla Rose (All Elite Wrestling) beat Maki Itoh.
Match 8: Nao Kakuta & Hikari Noa beat Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu to win the vacant Princess Tag Team Championship. Kakuta & Noa become the 14th Princess Tag Team Champions. Kakuta pinned Kiryu after Shiden Kai.
Match 9: Max The Impaler beat International Princess Champion Rika Tatsumi to win the title and retain the NWA Women’s TV Championship. Impaler becomes the 11th International Princess Champion.
Main Event: Miyu Yamashita beat Princess Of Princess Champion Mizuki to win the title. Yamashita becomes the 13th Princess Of Princess Champion. And first & only for now 4-time champion. The Champ Is Here again! HAPPY HAPPY!!!
The next event is a doubleheader Sunday at Club eX in Shinagawa Prince Hotel in Tokyo. The first event is Go Girl 4, the first women-only special event in over a year where only female fans can attend. The second event will be continuing the CITY CIRCUIT Tour with a regular event. The only announcements so far for both are Yuki Arai & Max The Impaler participation. There will be no live broadcasts.
