Hikari Noa & Natsumi Maki vs. Muscle JK (Marika Kobashi & Reika Saiki) (Tokyo Joshi Pro, 1/26/2019)

Tokyo Joshi Pro - Tokyo Joshi 2019 Winter ~ High Score ~ (1/26/2019)

TOKYO Princess Tag Team Title #1 Contendership: Hikari Noa & Natsumi Maki vs. Muscle JK (Marika Kobashi & Reika Saiki)

Great showings from these four, the stakes gave it perhaps a stronger response than it would have gotten otherwise. Cool exchanges and well timed momentum shifts. That Shining Wizard from Reika was set up in a neat way.

***1/2

RevPro - New Year's Resolution (1/11/2019)

4. NEVER Openweight Championship: Will Ospreay (c) vs. Chris Brookes

I guess I missed the part where it was announced that the NEVER Championship was on the line because I had no idea. It didn't really feel like a title match, but still, it was good fun. Chris targeted the leg and had assistance from his furry partner, and Opsreay delivered some great looking offense.

***1/4

8. RevPro Undisputed British Heavyweight Championship: Zack Sabre Jr. (c) vs. Shigehiro Irie

There's counters of Irie's signature moves that I liked, and Irie biting Sabre's foot was a neat character moment, but this doesn't add up to much. Irie doesn't seem to be doing well in Europe from what I have seen of his work there so far.

**1/2

Tokyo Joshi Pro - Tokyo Joshi 2019 Winter ~ High Score ~ (1/13/2019)

4. Mina Shirakawa & Yuki Kamifuku vs. magical sugar rabbits (Mizuki & Yuka Sakazaki)

This was a very fun tag match, with Mina & Kamiyu looking like a solid threat to the reigning tag champions.

***1/2

5. Hikari Noa vs. Natsumi Maki

This was a standard back and forth affair, two wrestlers deploying moves. Maki's probably the most fundamentally sound on the roster, her movements are very smooth, dug the finishing combination. Decent showcase of both talents.

**1/4
