Tokyo Joshi Pro - Tokyo Princess Cup 2020 (8/9/2020)

3. Tokyo Princess Cup 2020 - Second Round: Mizuki vs. Suzume

Mizuki and Suzume both have a counter-based technical style and they worked well together here. Both wrestlers showed precise execution, with Suzume looking especially sharp, and scoring good near-falls, in what was her strongest showing so far.

***1/2

5. Tokyo Princess Cup 2020 - Second Round: Miu Watanabe vs. Mirai Maiumi

Mirai looks like she's squeezed her mid section, but you probably wouldn't notice with the costume she wears. Good focused match, where both had game plans. Miu's tenderization of Mirai's back was brutal. The double wristlock from Mirai looked strong and she landed a gnarly lariat in the corner. I wasn't convinced by Miu's comeback, which felt too brief, but the overall match was good.

***1/2

6. Tokyo Princess Cup 2020 - Second Round: Rika Tatsumi vs. Yuki Aino

This wasn't the hottest match on the card even though it was the main event, but they had a good, coherent match. Aino's always showing something new in her matches. Maybe that constant growth is why the promotion evaluates her highly.

***1/4
