With the Tokyo Princess Cup now behind us, Tokyo Joshi Pro is filling the time between that and the upcoming Fall 2022 tour with a couple of standalone events, beginning today with a “TJPW PERFECTION” doubleheader. This will be a standard house show that may start the build to the WRESTLE PRINCESS 3 main event in October when Shoko Nakajima will again defend the Princess Of Princess Championship against Yuka Sakazaki. Maki Itoh is also back from the US for this event, as is Mizuki from an overseas event.
Today’s event will be held at Ryogoku KFC Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will be no commentary. Based on the card and time limits today’s event likely will run a little under 2 hours, so you’re not pulling an all-nighter in the US to watch. (it wound up running about 1 hour, 45 minutes)
Today’s lineup:
Hyper Misao vs. Moka Miyamoto
Miyu Yamashita & Maki Itoh vs. Yuki Aino & Raku
Hikari Noa & Nao Kakuta vs. Suzume & Neko Haruna
Rika Tatsumi vs. Kaya Toribami
Miu Watanabe vs. Pom Harajuku
Shoko Nakajima, Yuki Kamifuku & Mahiro Kiryu vs. Yuka Sakazaki, Mizuki & Arisu Endo

11:28 PM ET UPDATE: Live updates begin now.
We are LIVE from Ryogoku KFC Hall in Tokyo, Japan. There is no commentary.
The paid attendance will be announced after the event, while the crowd is still filing in it looks smaller than usual for a Sunday matinee. Maybe 200 although as low as 175 wouldn’t surprise me.
The matches should begin in about 15 minutes.
During her opening announcements Sayuri Namba brings out Hikari Noa. It sounds like Noa will soon be headed to England to compete in Pro Wrestling EVE, possibly challenging International Princess Champion Alex Windsor for the title. (Update: That will happen on 9/1) Also…Max The Impaler returns on 10/9 at WRESTLE PRINCESS 3…
