Tokyo Joshi Pro-Wrestling will run their Summer Sun Princess '26 show live on July 18th exclusively on WRESTLEUNIVERSE. The card is stacked, with Miyu Yamashita looking to make history by becoming a five-time Princess of Princess Champion against Yuki Arai, and the DayDream team of Rika Tatsumi and Miu Watanabe putting their Princess Tag Team Championships on the line against Kyōraku Kyōmei.

Elsewhere on the card, Suzume defends her International Princess Championship against Wakana Uehara, and we were lucky enough to catch a few words with the Vivid Honey Mustard ahead of her latest defence of her belt!

NB: We apologise for the sound of Andy's fans, we know it makes the audio a little bit difficult to hear, but we cannot stress to you how hot this poor man was!

There's only one show that we review fully this week, but there's still a lot to talk about! Matt and Andy talk about Mercedes Mone vs. Maya World and Thekla vs. Starlight Kid from AEW Forbidden Door, Ring of Honor and NXT matches, as well as a full review of TJPW's Next Door Final show from the 27th June.

The card is stacked, with Wakana Uehara looking to dethrone International Princess Champion Suzume, and the DayDream team of Rika Tatsumi and Miu Watanabe putting their Princess Tag Team Championships on the line against Kyōraku Kyōmei.

The main-event of the show will see Miyu Yamashita vying to become an unprecedented five-time Princess Champion by defeating current champion Yuki Arai, and we were lucky enough to catch a few words with The Pink Striker ahead of what is sure to be a sensational match, and potentially history-making, match.
