Tokyo Joshi Pro - The 4th Tokyo Princess Cup Opener (7/2/2017)

5. Tokyo Princess Cup - First Round: Rika Tatsumi vs. Yuna Manase

Yuna was looking strong and I thought she had a real chance of winning, until Rika caught her axekick! Big fan of Rika using the billiken to gain the win.

6. Tokyo Princess Cup - First Round: Yuka Sakazaki vs. Miyu Yamashita

This match just kept getting better and better as it went on. A very well-worked main event, with slugs being thrown and Miyu selling her damaged leg like a pro. Yuka's reverse STO counter was nuts; one of my favorite spots in wrestling right now. I dug the combinations they were hitting, especially Yuka's elbow flurry. The counters were great, and the match felt like it could go either way.

****1/2
