TJPW Spring Tour in Nagoya
Date: Sunday, June 1, 2025
Location: Chunichi Hall - Nagoya, Japan

1	Miu Watanabe vs. Maki Itoh vs. Yuki Kamifuku vs. Yuki Aino vs. Yuki Arai vs. Pom Harajuku vs. Arisu Endo vs. Jada Stone	"Last One Standing" Princess of Princess Championship #1 Contender's Eight-Woman Elimination Match Match is initially drawn as an eight-woman tag; it will convert to singles if one team is eliminated and another has two or more survivors
2	Mizuki vs. Uta Takami	Non-Title Match

4	Rika Tatsumi/Wakana Uehara/Mifu Ashida vs. Mahiro Kiryu/Haruna Neko/Shino Suzuki	Six-Woman Tag Team Match
5	Yoshiko Hasegawa/Kira Summer/Ivy Steele vs. Moka Miyamoto/Toga/Chika Nanase	Six-Woman Tag Team Match
6	Suzume vs. Ren Konatsu	Konatsu's Debut Match

This card was plagued by injuries. The loss of Haruna Neko and Kira Summer caused match 5 to be abbreviated into a tag team match and Ivy Steele to jump up the card into Haruna's spot. Only match 5 is getting struck off though because it makes most sense.
