Full cards announced for Daily Sports 60th Anniversary shows

The full cards have been announced for the Daily Sports 60th Anniversary Commemorative shows. Commando Bolshoi is handling the booking so she has posted the lineups on her blog. The first show is July 21 at the IMP Hall in Osaka. The opener has Tyrannosaurus Okuda & Pinkie Mayuca vs Ayako Sato & Misaki Ohata. Then Devil Masami, Ran YuYu & Toshie Uematsu will face Kaoru Ito, Takako Inoue & Hanako Kobayashi. There will be a battle royal with Harley Saito, Kei'to, KAZUKI, Yumi Ohka, Kana and more TBA. Then you have Dump Matsumoto & Sasori vs GAMI & KAORU. Then the debut of Tiger Mask Lady teaming with Commando Bolshoi vs Ranmaru & Fuuka Kidd. So it's obviously a comedy match with four masked wrestlers. Bolshoi says on her blog that Tiger Mask Lady uses the Tiger Splash as a finisher. I've seen a lot of guessing about Tiger Mask Lady's identity. I'm pretty sure she's a JWP wrestler. Aska Ohki has been injured so it could be her or it could be Tojuki Leon. She already wears a mask so that seems a little odd. And I also don't know if the character is for these shows only.









Daily Sports wasn't clear but it seems that the Jumping Bomb Angels will not be part of the Daily Sports Womens Tag Team Title tournament. Bolshoi is clear that Itsuki Yamazaki & Noriyo Tateno will face The Dynamite Gals (Yukari Omori & Jumbo Hori) in a Legends match. The show will conclude with the first round of the Daily Sports Womens Tag Team Title tournament. The teams are Manami Toyota & Yumiko Hotta, Kayoko Haruyama & Tsubasa Kuragaki, Yoshiko Tamura & Arisa Nakajima and Chikayo Nagashima & Sonoko Kato. The exact matchups will be announced later. This is a long show.













Unless it's not complete, the Aug. 8 Korakuen Hall show seems a lot shorter. First is Tiger Mask Lady & Commando Bolshoi vs Kaori Yoneyama & Jaguar Yokota. Then a Tradition match with the Jumping Bomb Angels (Noriyo Tateno & Itsuki Yamazki) vs Kyoko & Takako Inoue. Then a battle royal where the winner wins a trip to Guam. No particpants have been announced yet. Then Dump Matsumoto & Sasori will face Etsuko Mita & Hiroyo Muto. The main event will be the final of the Daily Sports Womens Tag Team Title. I have seen no indication about what will be done with these belts afterwards. As I said when these shows were announced, these are heavy on nostalgia but that's not very surprising.
