Tokyo Joshi Pro continues the Fall ’22 house show tour today with a midday matinee event. The build should begin to the next Princess Of Princess Championship match, which should be another epic match between Yuka Sakazaki & Miyu Yamashita, undoubtedly the top two stars of TJPW, but also more international focus as Millie McKenzie will make another appearance before returning to England, and Yamashita will follow in January as she returns to Pro Wrestling EVE to defend the EVE Championship. Also expected back today is Raku after she lost her Princess Tag Team Championship chance last week because of coronavirus, but no Nao Kakuta again as she will miss the event due to her stage performance schedule.
Today’s event will be held at Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will be no commentary. If you have not taken advantage of the 2-week free trial for first-time subscribers, THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE! The offer ends after this weekend. The cost has gone up a bit since last month but is still a bargain at around $6.50 US/month. With 6 matches today and half being single matches, this will be another short event, I anticipate the entire event running just under 2 hours.
Today’s lineup:
Mizuki vs. Neko Haruna
Rika Tatsumi vs. Pom Harajuku
Miu Watanabe vs. Mahiro Kiryu
Yuki Kamifuku & Millie McKenzie vs. Shoko Nakajima & Suzume
Yuki Aino & Raku vs. Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami
Yuka Sakazaki, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo vs. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Moka Miyamoto

Updates below will begin at 10 PM ET/7 PM PT.
9:58 PM ET UPDATE: Live updates begin now.
We are LIVE from Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama, Japan. There is no commentary.
The paid attendance will be announced after the event concludes, but there’s no vocal cheering so potentially full capacity, I’m going to guess it’ll be around 200 as the visible seating around the ring looks completely full (only about 2 rows).
The matches should begin in about 10 minutes.
The matches begin at 10:11 PM ET. Looks like it’s hard camera view only today (it’s a very small venue).

Result: Mizuki beat Neko Haruna
Match 2: Yuki Aino & Raku vs. Hyper Misao & Kaya Toribami. 20 minute time limit

Match 5: Yuki Kamifuku & Millie McKenzie vs. Shoko Nakajima & Suzume. 20 minute time limit
Result; Yuki Kamifuku & Millie McKenzie beat Shoko Nakajima & Suzume. McKenzie pinned Suzume after a release German suplex. Afterwards, McKenzie stayed in the ring for a few extra moments to show appreciation to the fans as this is her last appearance in TJPW for now before returning to England.
Main Event: Yuka Sakazaki, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo vs. Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Moka Miyamoto. 20 minute time limit
Result: Miyu Yamashita, Maki Itoh & Moka Miyamoto beat Yuka Sakazaki, Hikari Noa & Arisu Endo. Yamashita pinned Endo after Attitude Adjustment. During the live broadcast of this match there were technical issues that began to emerge during intros, once the match began I noticed the audio was notably off-sync with and was behind the video by a good 2-3 seconds. Hopefully this will be resolved soon but it might result in the event video, or at least the main event, being taken down for a time to fix.
This event went faster than expected at just 1 hour, 45 minutes.
The next event is 12/10 at Hamamatsu City Entetsu Hall in Shizuoka for a CITY CIRCUIT event. Already announced is EVE Champion Miyu Yamashita vs. “The Unbreakable” Rio for the title. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin on 12/9 at 11 PM ET/8 PM PT.
UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 210, a super full house/very near sellout.
UPDATE 2: TJPW and WRESTLE UNIVERSE have confirmed the technical difficulties with today’s live broadcast and the video has been removed and is not available on demand. A resolved version will be uploaded at a later date.
