WRESTLE PRINCESS 6, Tokyo Joshi Pro’s most important event of the year (no longer their biggest though), is in the books.
Today’s event was held at Ota City General Gym in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.
The announced paid attendance was 1127.
There were some last-minute changes to the event due to Jada Stone being off the card. Not cleared to travel to Japan due to a knee injury. She was to have faced Arisu Endo for the vacant International Princess Championship. Priscilla Kelly was the replacement. She was to have faced Rika Tatsumi though. Pom Harajuku was removed from a battle royal to be the replacement there.
