– In a video posted on Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling’s Twitter, NWA Women’s World Champion Thunder Rosa announced that she would relinquish the TJPW International Princess Championship due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and after her two title matches were cancelled during WrestleMania weekend due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rosa vowed to return to TJPW to reclaim her title but wished the new champion the best of luck. DDT Pro announced a tournament of eight Japanese wrestlers with the new champion set to be crowned on Nov. 7 at Wrestle Princess.

On the Oct. 18 show, Mayu Iwatani is set to take on Marvelous star Takumi Iroha for the World of Stardom Championship. The two faced off earlier this year with Iroha picking up the win in a non-title match.
