6. Miyu Yamashita vs. Masha Slamovich
Miyu usually plays the cool and stoic ace in Tokyo Joshi, but here she was engaging with the audience and wrestled with a more free-flowing feel, which I found refreshing. This was my first time seeing Masha Slamovich wrestle. She seemed competent enough and showed some interesting moves. Even if the execution wasn't always perfect, their performances were full of energy and the hot crowd reaction elevated everything. ****
9. Tokyo International Championship: Maki Itoh (c) vs. Mia Yim
The first International Princess defense in a long time and the first-ever on foreign soil. It was one of Maki Itoh's finest performances yet. It was a match full of Itoh's charm. The audience knew her signature moves and their reactions to them were amazing. Mia Yim, who readily adapted to Itoh's cartoonish wrestling without bargaining, gave a great performance with a sense of stability and professionalism. ***3/4
