Fujiko Mushashibo, accompanied by her faction, AKUMA, mocks Tagawa and Kurmochi to get in their heads. Tagawa tries go face-to-face with the champ, getting pushed away by Kichi Mochizuki, Skuld and Naoko Hayashida. Yayoi Kurmochi calms down Hoshiko Tagawa, recommending her not to fall in Fujiko’s trap, while the champ leaves the interview. Morgan Stryker vs Rika Tsujimura As a rematch against Morgan Stryker was on the way, Unstoppable Tai suffered a Ruptured Spleen and was forced to deal with the injury. Rika Tsujimura, Tai’s partner as member of the Sorrow, stepped up to challenge Morgan Stryker. During the Press Conference Morgan Stryker states that she’s a little upset by Tai’s injury, but she knows that they will collide in the future. In any case, Stryker is now focused on Rika Tsujimura who isn’t an easy challenger. Rika Tsujimura responds to Stryker, planning to bring sorrow on her. NeoTokyo Tandem Title HEARTS Of GLORY © vs Warrior Princesses vs Sorrow NeoTokyo Tandem champs, Akari Kawashima & HEART Koiso, have to defend their belts from the assault of the Warrior Princesses, Himari Miwa & Yukiko Matsumara, and the Sorrow, Maki Yoshifumi & Yu Hashimoto.

HEARTS Of GLORY maintain their positive attitude, ready for the fight. Big opportunity even for the Warrior Princesses, who want to finally win the Tandem titles. Battle of the Blades Ashley Keith vs Sae Akutagawa vs Miwako Katsukawa The leadership on Nova Blade is on the line in this internal triple threat. After some tensions inside the group, Miwako Katsukawa proposed this bout to finally find who will lead the faction, avoiding different point of views which can compromise Nova Blade’s future. During the Press Conference, the tension between the allies keeps rising and we don’t know if this match could really solve the situation … But at least we will find the new leading figure! NeoTokyo Universal Title Megumi Nakajima © vs Artifact Takami vs Shiori Jippensha And we are finally heading to the last part of the Press Conference, talking about the triple threat for the NeoTokyo Universal title that will be the main event. Megumi Nakajima has to defend her big gold from the attacks of former champs Artifact Takami and Shiori Jippensha. All three joshi maintain a quite calm attitude, reflecting on the importance of the match. Megumi Nakajima is ready to pin Takami once again or put Jippensha’s back on the mat for the win. It doesn’t matter who’s gonna get pinned, as long as the champ is the one pinning.

Wrestling Machine Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 https://i.imgur.com/lbuff5E.jpg NEO TOKYO TRIPLE THREAT IN KAWASAKI 2022 SUNDAY, WEEK 2, MAY 2022 @ KAWASAKI, KANTO ATTENDANCE: 3,665 VIEWERS: 157,113 Honey & Luck vs Iron Curtain vs Euro Stars The show opens up with a triple threat tandem match, with a shot at the NeoTokyo Tandem title on the line for the winning team. All three tandems try their best to get the win: Honey Badger and Felicia Luck deliver a lot of strikes, Erin Grey and Katya Kornishkova bring the Iron Curtain on their opponents, using their physical power, while the Euro Stars Serena Ventura and Blair Kerrigan use their flashiness, all of this in a balanced bout. At the end, after 17 mins, Blair Kerrigan takes out Honey Badger and Felicia Luck with a Tope Suicida but leaves Serena Ventura alone in the ring who is knocked out by the Iron Curtain from Erin Grey and Katya Kornishkova combined, who win the match and gain the title shot. Not the best match, but useful to give some exposure to these minor tandems. WINNERS: ERIN GREY & KATYA KORNISHKOVA (IRON CURTAIN) RATING: 54 NeoTokyo Futureshock Title Fujiko Mushashibo © vs Yayoi Kurmochi vs Hoshiko Tagawa During the entrance, Hoshiko Tagawa immediately launches herself against the champ Fujiko Mushashibo, adding bad blood between them after the Press Conference. Yayoi Kurmochi joins the fight, not afraid to get her hands dirty. The match turns out to be really nice, a good example of the Future-resu product of NeoTokyo with a fast pace and a lot of strikes. After 19 mins, Fujiko Mushashibo knocks out Hoshiko Tagawa with a Shining Wizard. Hoshiko rolls out of the ring, getting mocked by Akuma’s little devils: Naoko Hayashida, Kichi Mochizuki and Skuld. In the ring, Yayoi Kurmochi tries a roll-up on Fujiko, but the champ gets back on his feet, planting another Shining Wizard, this time on Kurmochi. After that, Fujiko Mushashibo goes for her beautiful Moonsault to pin the opponent and retain the gold. WINNER AND STILL: FUJIKO MUSHASHIBO RATING: 72 Morgan Stryker vs Rika Tsujimura In the only one versus one match of the night, Morgan Stryker takes on injured Unstoppable Tai’s partner, Rika Tsujimura. The knee strikes of former NeoTokyo Futureshock champ, Rika Tsujimura, deal damage to the blackbelt Morgan Stryker, who still doesn’t back down and fires back at the opponent. This led to an open match with superb wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd. After 22 mins, Rika Tsujimura taps out to Stryker’s lethal Triangle Choke who already made Unstoppable Tai tap. Another convincing win for Morgan Stryker who celebrates, while Tsujimura seems upset with herself after the loss. WINNER: MORGAN STRYKER RATING: 79 NeoTokyo Tandem Title HEARTS Of GLORY © vs Warrior Princesses vs Sorrow With the NeoTokyo Tandem titles on the line, the favourites Maki Yoshifumi & Yu Hashimoto start really strong, with Maki Yoshifumi in her first match after her recent win in a MMA fight who almost broke Akari Kawashima’s arm in the first minute. The tandem of Sorrow quite dominate the bout, but the Warrior Princesses have a nice comeback, especially with Yukiko Matsumara who get close the win the match, almost pinning Yu Hashimoto. Maki Yoshifumi and Yu Hashimoto spend the majority of the match fighting and look quite exhausted in the final minutes of the match after a great performance. This lead to a comeback from Akari Kawashima and HEART Koiso, who build their momentum and finally get the win by pinning Himari Miwa after 25 mins. HEARTS Of GLORY raise their titles under the eyes of Maki Yoshifumi & Yu Hashimoto who tell them that this ain’t over, and they will bring Sorrow over the champs in the near future! WINNERS AND STILL: AKARI KAWASHIMA & HEART KOISO (HEARTS OF GLORY) RATING: 72 Battle of the Blades Ashley Keith vs Sae Akutagawa vs Miwako Katsukawa The leadership on Nova Blade is on the line in this internal triple threat. After a dynamic match where all three joshi seems real candidates to win the bout, we arrives to the key moment: with Sae Akutagawa knocked out outside of the ring, after a Northern Lights Bomb by Katsukawa, Ashley Keith puts Miwako Katsukawa in her Proton Lock in the squared circle! Miwako screams in agony, trying to escape the hold without results … Sae Akutagawa crawls back in the ring, slowed down by the weight of the fight, finally getting close to her opponents to break the lock … BUT MIWAKO TAPS OUT IN HER FACE! Ashley Keith wins the match after 23 mins and takes the spot as the leader of the Nova Blade. After the match, the joshi are followed by Erin Grey and Katya Kornishkova. Ashley Keith takes her leading role and proposes a fist pump with the “blade sign”. The Iron Curtain follows her, and after few seconds even the losers, Sae Akutagawa and Miwako Katsukawa joins the group. After some tensions, it seems like Nova Blade is back together, now under the guide of “the Queen of Pro Wrestling” Ashley Keith. WINNER AND NEW NOVA BLADE’S LEADER: ASHLEY KEITH RATING: 76 NeoTokyo Universal Title Megumi Nakajima © vs Artifact Takami vs Shiori Jippensha And is now time for the Main Event! The NeoTokyo Universal Title is on the line, as champ Megumi Nakajima defends the belt from the assaults of the last two Universal champ, Artifact Takami and Shiori Jippensha. The match sees superb wrestling and a good heat from the crowd here in Kawasaki. The action is absolutely fast paced with a lot of spots that include all three wrestlers, making this a bout really different from the typical one versus one for the big gold. After 26 mins, Shiori Jippensha locks Megumi Nakajima in her Leglock, close to make the champ tap! But Artifact Takami breaks the submission hold and proceeds to connect her Takami Bomb. But right before pinning Jippensha, Megumi Nakajima closes Takami in a quick cradle for the pin: 1! … 2! … 3!!! Megumi Nakajima retains the NeoTokyo Universal title once again, in what has been the match of the night.

Takami comes from a surprising lost against Emiko Miyoshi at the last event, and she injured Miyoshi’s herself during the tour. Shiori Jippensha stepped up to avenge the assault on her faction’s friend and during this Press Conference she states how she will make Takami tap once again. Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) vs Matsumara, Miwa, Kurmochi (Megumi-gun) After the lost in the first ladder match in NeoTokyo history, Ashley Keith had to deal once again with some needs of Miwako Katsukawa and Sae Akutagawa, who both targeted the NeoTokyo Universal Title. Keith seemed like she want to “steal” a title shot for herself, but after some tensions she took bas her words and went along with her friends’ wishes. Still, the ownership chose Maki Yoshifumi as the next contender and Nova Blade remains without a match for this upcoming event. For this reason, Saeko Hiroyuki attends the conference to announce that she picks the Universal champ’s army, Megumi-gun as their opponents. The Warrior Princesses, Yukiko Matsumara and Himari Miwa, and Yayoi Kurmochi will fight against Ashley Keith, Sae Akutagawa and Miwako Katsukawa. NeoTokyo Futureshock Title – Deathmatch Fujiko Mushashibo © vs Yuma Furuta Fujiko Mushashibo was supposed to defend her Futureshock title against Danielle Sweetheart in a Texas Deathmatch, however the American got a separated shoulder and won’t make it for this upcoming event. Fujiko Mushashibo was upset by this forfeit and asked for a new opponent to fight her in a deathmatch, Saeko Hiroyuki pleased her request. Her opponent will be Yuma Furuta, also known as Dr. Yumaniac, a young hardcore wrestler and member of black metal band Gasp. At the Press Conference, Yuma Furuta simply states that if Fujiko Mushashibo wants some hardcore action, she will get it. NeoTokyo Tandem Title – Cage Match Akari Kawashima & HEART Koiso (HEARTS Of GLORY) © vs Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose After defeating Chitose Ariwara and Lady Lotus, Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose set their focus on the NeoTokyo Tandem Title once again. Akari Kawashima and HEART Koiso didn’t back up from the challenge and state, even during this interview, how they will defeat the Neo Gaijins once again, this time in a Cage Match! Kate Lilly and Debbie Rose promise that this time they will not fail and walk out as 3-time Tandem champs. Cage Match Morgan Stryker vs Unstoppable Tai Coming back from an injury, Unstoppable Tai can finally meet Morgan Stryker again in one versus one, in a rematch who already supposed to happen few events ago. Last time Tai connected her finisher but ended up being submitted by a Triangle Choke out of nowhere by judo blackbelt Morgan Stryker. At the interview, Morgan Stryker claims that she will find a way, once again, to adapt to the situation and defeat her rival, while Unstoppable Tai is eager to destroy Stryker inside the cage. NeoTokyo Universal Title – Cage Match Megumi Nakajima © vs Maki Yoshifumi In the first NeoTokyo Universal Title match of her career, Maki Yoshifumi is focus on gaining the big belt. Inside a steel cage, an MMA fighter like her could probably be the favourite to winning this match. Still, it’s hard to think Megumi Nakajima as the underdog, as she has been a fantastic champ so far and such a great joshi. During the final staredown Maki Yoshifumi whispers something to the champ, definitely some trash talk, but Megumi Nakajima reacts calmly, simply smiling at her next opponent. Four cage matches and a deathmatch in the hardest event of NeoTokyo … WE WILL SEE BLOOD, STEEL, CAGES! THIS SUNDAY!

The bout has superb wrestling and good heat, getting the show off to a strong start. The joshi deliver good performances and have an open match, with both wrestlers close to winning it different times. At the end, it’s Shiori Jippensha who comes out as the winner after 24 mins, submitting Artifact Takami with her Jippensha Leglock. WINNER: SHIORI JIPPENSHA RATING: 82 Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) vs Matsumara, Miwa, Kurmochi (Megumi-gun) The next match on the card is a three versus three between Nova Blade and the army of the Universal Champ Megumi Nakajima. For Megumi-gun, Yukiko Matsumara delivers a great performance (81) continuing her hot momentum, but at the end is Nova Blade who comes out as the winning team. Miwako Katsukawa and Sae Akutagawa open the door for their leader, Ashley Keith, who submits Himari Miwa with the legendary Proton Lock, after 20 mins. WINNERS: KEITH, AKUTAGAWA, KATSUKAWA (NOVA BLADE) RATING: 68 NeoTokyo Tandem Title – Cage Match Akari Kawashima & HEART Koiso (HEARTS Of GLORY) © vs Kate Lilly & Debbie Rose In a bout that has superb wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd, the HEARTS Of GLORY defend their NeoTokyo Tandem Title inside a steel cage from the assault of 2-time Tandem champs, Lilly & Rose. Debbie Rose sustains a broken jaw and is slowed a little by working with an injury, but still the bout doesn’t disappoint, lasting for 21 mins when HEART Koiso submits Kate Lilly, while her partner hits the Kawashima Driver 2020 on Debbie Rose. HEARTS Of GLORY remain once again Tandem champs, celebrating with the crowd and with other Cosmic Keys’ members, Chitose Ariwara and Lady Lotus. WINNERS AND STILL: AKARI KAWASHIMA & HEART KOISO (HEARTS Of GLORY) RATING: 74 The owner Saeko Hiroyuki comes to the ring through the matches, taking a microphone. After thanking everyone in attendance, she says that she’s came out here to announce the next event: NEOTOKYO TRIPLETS TAKEOVER!! A show full of three versus three action, that will be called “triplets” here in NeoTokyo, a fresh way to call the division, just like they did with “tandems” as tag teams. And at Triplets Takeover, the team who will win the upcoming 8-triplet tournament will win the 1st edition of the NeoTokyo Triplets Trophy NeoTokyo Futureshock Title – Deathmatch Fujiko Mushashibo © vs Yuma Furuta Fujiko Mushashibo defends her NeoTokyo Futureshock Title against Yuma Furuta, who debuts her unstable “maniac” gimmick who gets an initial rating of Great. The bout isn’t received really well by the audience due to the type of match, but still it’s something new that NeoTokyo wanted to try. Both wrestlers are willing to risk, taking stunt bumps for lifting the match. After 15 mins, in a bout pretty quick and chaotic, Fujiko Mushashibo remains the champ, pinning Yuma Furuta with her Moonsault. WINNER AND STILL: FUJIKO MUSHASHIBO RATING: 51 Cage Match Morgan Stryker vs Unstoppable Tai Another cage match, this time we finally have the rematch between Morgan Stryker and Unstoppable Tai, who have a bout with superb wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd. Tai imposes her size once again, dominating the majority of the match, while Stryker targets the arms and the legs of the opponent with hard strikes. After 22 mins, Tai connects her Tai Bomber and when Stryker tries to lock her up with a Triangle Choke, she deadlifts her up once again, hitting another Tai Bomber: 1! … 2! … 3! WINNER: UNSTOPPABLE TAI RATING: 63 NeoTokyo Universal Title – Cage Match Megumi Nakajima © vs Maki Yoshifumi The NeoTokyo Universal champ enters the cage in the main event against MMA fighter and former NeoTokyo Tandem champ Maki Yoshifumi. Great wrestling and good heat from the crowd, Yoshifumi is slowed down a little by a minor injury but that doesn’t stop her from having a nice performance, using the cage structure to her advantage multiple times for attacking the opponent. After 23 mins Megumi Nakajima goes for her Nakajima Straight Jacket and Maki Yoshifumi escapes the move, turning herself and hitting a devastating Duck-Under Head Kick. It’s not easy to believe that. But Megumi Nakajima’s reign comes to an end, as the pinfall by Maki Yoshifumi reaches the 3-count. WE HAVE A NEW CHAMP! WINNER AND NEW: MAKI YOSHIFUMI RATING: 84 (MATCH OF THE NIGHT) OVERALL RATING: 80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestling Machine Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 BREAKING NEWS: SIGNINGS WAR WITH 5SSW? 5SSW tries to sign 5 joshi from NeoTokyo, offering exclusive written contracts. After reaching medium size, 5SSW tried to sign Ashley Keith, Kate Lilly, Rika Tsujimura, Yayoi Kurmochi and Mizucore, offering them multi-years exclusive written contract. This led to a reaction from NeoTokyo, not willing to lose these talents, and after some bids war NeoTokyo was able to complete the signings of the five joshi on exclusive written contracts, the first ones in NeoTokyo’s history. The contracts were pretty heavy and will definitely impact the company’s economy, it will be interest to know if this will lead to more tensions between the joshi companies and other signings wars, considering that both share a number of workers on handshake deals right now.

Wrestling Machine Posted April 21, 2022 Author Share Posted April 21, 2022 NEO TOKYO TRIPLETS TAKEOVER 2022 PRESS CONFERENCE SATURDAY, WEEK 4, JULY 2022 @ KANAGAWA SPORTS FIELD, KANTO NeoTokyo’s owner, Saeko Hiroyuki welcomes everyone to this Press Conference. Today we are gonna analyse the four Quarter-finals for the Triplets Trophy. After these matches, at NeoTokyo Triplets Takeover we will also see the two Semi-finals and the Final in the main event. Triplets Trophy – 1st Quarter-final Jippensha, Miyoshi, Genda (HALO) vs Hashimoto, Unstoppable Tai, Tsujimura (Sorrow) The first match sees former NeoTokyo Universal champ, Shiori Jippensha, and formers NeoTokyo Futureshock champs, Emiko Miyoshi and Nami Genda, versus Sorrow’s Yu Hashimoto, Unstoppable Tai and Rika Tsujimura. HALO is a faction well built and full of talent, but on the other side Sorrow is really scary with those three joshi accompanied by new Universal Champ, Maki Yoshifumi. Unstoppable Tai could be the turning point of this match, imposing her unmatched strength. Triplets Trophy – 2nd Quarter-final Mushashibo, Mizucore, Spider Isako (AKUMA) vs Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) The chaotic daredevils of AKUMA enter this tournament under Fujiko Mushashibo’s lead, with Mizucore and Spider Isako teaming up with her. Still not super experienced, the three heelish joshi will fight against Nova Blade. Maybe the scariest triplet in the company, but the tensions between the leader Ashley Keith and other members Sae Akutagawa and Miwako Katsukawa are still there and could backfire pretty quick. Triplets Trophy – 3rd Quarter-final Takami, Hosaka, Minami vs Nakajima, Matsumara, Miwa (Megumi-gun) 2-time Universal champ Artifact Takami will team with her friend, the young lion Satoko Hosaka coming back from an injury, and Omitsu Minami. Their opponents will be Megumi-Gun, led by Megumi Nakajima with the Warrior Princesses, Yukiko Matsumara and Himari Miwa. The favourites are clearly Megumi-gun, due to the star power of Takami’s partners, not exactly the best team. Triplets Trophy – 4th Quarter-final Black, Rose, Lilly (Neo Gaijin) vs Stryker, Ariwara, Lady Lotus (Cosmic Keys) Foreign force, the Neo Gaijin, enters the tournament with this triplet: the Scottish Cora Black and 2-time Tandem champs, Debbie Rose and Kate Lilly. Their opponents will be three joshi from the Cosmic Keys: Morgan Stryker, Chitose Ariwara and Lady Lotus. Maybe the most balanced quarter-final of the Triplets Trophy, we will see who will reach the Semi-finals. NEO TOKYO TRIPLETS TAKEOVER 2022 CARD FOR PREDICTION Quarter-finals of Triplets Trophy: Jippensha, Miyoshi, Genda (HALO) vs Hashimoto, Unstoppable Tai, Tsujimura (Sorrow) Mushashibo, Mizucore, Spider Isako (AKUMA) vs Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) Takami, Hosaka, Minami vs Nakajima, Matsumara, Miwa (Megumi-gun) Black, Rose, Lilly (Neo Gaijin) vs Stryker, Ariwara, Lady Lotus (Cosmic Keys) Semi-finals of Triplets Trophy: Winner of 1st Quarter-final vs Winner of 2nd Quarter-final Winner of 3rd Quarter-final vs Winner of 4th Quarter-final Final of Triplets Trophy Winner of 1st Semi-final vs Winner of 2nd Semi-final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestling Machine Posted April 22, 2022 Author Share Posted April 22, 2022 NEO TOKYO TRIPLETS TAKEOVER 2022 SATURDAY, WEEK 4, JULY 2022 @ KANAGAWA SPORTS FIELD, KANTO ATTENDANCE: 5,000 PEOPLE (SOLD OUT!!!) VIEWERS: 168,059 Triplets Trophy – 1st Quarter-final Jippensha, Miyoshi, Genda (HALO) vs Hashimoto, Unstoppable Tai, Tsujimura (Sorrow) In the opener, HALO gets the win after the Miyoshi Cradle from Emiko Miyoshi to Rika Tsujimura in 16 mins. Disappointing performance by the Sorrow, with NeoTokyo Universal champ Maki Yoshifumi watching from ringside. Both Emiko Miyoshi (81) and Shiori Jippensha (85) have a great match, but overall the in-ring performances from all joshi have been pretty good. This match gets the show off to a strong start. WINNERS: JIPPENSHA, MIYOSHI, GENDA (HALO) RATING: 81 Triplets Trophy – 2nd Quarter-final Mushashibo, Mizucore, Spider Isako (AKUMA) vs Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) Another bout that gets the crowd hotter, with a great start from Akuma’s members Fujiko Mushashibo, Mizucore and Spider Isako who go all-in from the beginning with fast-paced action. Nova Blade endures the attacks and then takes control of the match. After 15 mins, Sae Akutagawa takes out Fujiko Mushashibo who tries to fly from the top rope, while Miwako Katsukawa takes down Mizucore. Ashley Keith then has all the space to end the match, submitting Spider Isako with her Proton Lock. WINNERS: KEITH, AKUTAGAWA, KATSUKAWA (NOVA BLADE) RATING: 73 Triplets Trophy – 3rd Quarter-final Takami, Hosaka, Minami vs Nakajima, Matsumara, Miwa (Megumi-gun) As expected, Takami’s team doesn’t go that far, with only Artifact Takami herself really having a good performance. Megumi Nakajima leads her army to the win, pinning Omitsu Minami with an Exploder Suplex. Megumi really shines in this match, celebrating with Himari Miwa, Yukiko Matsumara and Yayoi Kurmochi who stands at ringside, remembering them that that was just the first round. WINNERS: NAKAJIMA, MATSUMARA, MIWA (MEGUMI-GUN) RATING: 62 Triplets Trophy – 4th Quarter-final Black, Rose, Lilly (Neo Gaijin) vs Stryker, Ariwara, Lady Lotus (Cosmic Keys) The last Quarter-final sees Cora Black, Debbie Rose and Kate Lilly going against Morgan Stryker, Chitose Ariwara and Lady Lotus. As anticipated, this bout is the most balanced and the one that goes for most of the time. Debbie Rose and Chitose Ariwara both have injuries that slow them down, while Morgan Stryker (87) looks really good out there. After 18 mins, Neo Gaijin gets the win as Kate Lilly pins Chitose Ariwara after her Lilly Launch Pad. WINNERS: BLACK, ROSE, LILLY (NEO GAIJIN) RATING: 78 Triplets Trophy – 1st Semi-final Jippensha, Miyoshi, Genda (HALO) vs Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) The first semi-final has superb wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd, delivering the best match of the night between HALO and Nova Blade and having the crowd is buzzing. After 21 mins, Miwako Katsukawa scores the win for her, Ashley Keith and Sae Akutagawa, after pinning Nami Genda with a Katsukawa Bomb. Nova Blade’s members clean the ring as Shiori Jippensha returns backstage, giving comfort to Nami Genda and Emiko Miyoshi. Will Ashley Keith, Sae Akutagawa and Miwako Katsukawa win the final and the 1st Triplets Trophy? WINNERS: ASHLEY KEITH, AKUTAGAWA, KATSUKAWA (NOVA BLADE) RATING: 82 (MATCH OF THE NIGHT) Triplets Trophy – 2nd Semi-final Nakajima, Matsumara, Miwa (Megumi-gun) vs Black, Rose, Lilly (Neo Gaijin) In the second Semi-final, we see a balanced bout with superb wrestling. After 19 mins, a shocker for the crowd as former Universal champ Megumi Nakajima beats down Kate Lilly and Debbie Rose, getting caught off guard by Cora Black who blindsides Megumi and pins her: 1! … 2! … 3! Neo Gaijin goes to the final with a big win and a big pinfall. Megumi Nakajima shakes her head inside the ring in disappointment, while Himari Miwa and Yukiko Matsumara seem tired and upset by the lost. WINNERS: BLACK, ROSE, LILLY (NEO GAIJIN) RATING: 80 Triplets Trophy – Final Ashley Keith, Akutagawa, Katsukawa (Nova Blade) vs Black, Rose, Lilly (Neo Gaijin) Before the final, Saeko Hiroyuki introduces the match, showing off the Triplets Trophy. The owner works the crowd well, using the freedom to improvise to her advantage. The final match lasted 25 mins, having really good wrestling and a decent reaction from the crowd. Cora Black shines again after pinning Nakajima in the Semi-final, but this time Neo Gaijin’s members fall, when Sae Akutagawa pins Kate Lilly after her Northern Lights Bomb. The triplet of Nova Blade moves on from recent internal tensions, having a perfect night and winning the tournament. The three joshi pose with their trophies while photos are taken, and even the crowd gives them credits. WINNERS: ASHLEY KEITH, AKUTAGAWA, KATSUKAWA (NOVA BLADE) RATING: 77 OVERALL RATING: 77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottie Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 This is really good! I have to admit I've not read every show, but have caught up on the last couple. The presentation is very clean, and I like that you are focusing on the main shows (with press conferences setting things up) - so keep it up! Looking forward to the next show.

Thanks for the feedback Scottie!
