The AWF & QOR titles were split up as a result of a 4 way roofed cage death match. Abe was the first to be eliminatedm, being pinned in after fisherman buster by Fang & Sakai at 20:17. KAZUKI gave up at 21:21 because she was afraid of heights. Fang escaped with the QOR belt at 23:15, but Sakai then escaped with the AWF belt at 23:46. Fang threw her belt down saying she wouldn't be happy until she defeated Sakai, so the titles might quickly be rejoined. The belts had been vacated by Bloody due to injury.

2/24:

2/24 Tokyo Differ Ariake 640
Sachie Abe won the first Tenjo Tsuki Kanaami Death Match (cage match with a ceiling), defeating Fang Suzuki when she escaped at 21:21. They started fighting on the ceiling of the cage at 15, with Fang nearly making Abe "pass out" in the Romero special and STO. Fang then started climbing to the floor to win the match, but before she could reach the ground, Abe dove off the 4.5 meter high cage to the floor for the dramatic victory.
Morimatsu beat Kurohime 3 falls to 2 (this was another where you had to win 2 straight) in a match to decide the next the next double title challenger.
Yabushita & Bloody & Sakai defeated Tamura & Genki & Yuka Nakamura when Bloody used her Bloody Mary on Nakamura at 17:53.

2/22:

Jd' had a press conference to promote the 2/24 cage match. Even though there's a ceiling, there's a hole that's about a meter wide on all sides that I guess they can escape through to win. They can also win the way they'd win a regular match, by pin, submission, or KO. This is because Abe is supposed to have too big an advantage under regular escape rules because she's so much smaller. It makes since that King Kong Bundy is at a disadvantage in an escape rule cage match, but Fang weighs maybe 175 pounds so she ought to be able to scale a fence. Weapon use is going to be legal in this match. Abe plans on inflicting some punishment, as she said she'd like to see the tearful face of Fang. After the conference, Fang attacked Abe, bloodying her forehead. Abe then swore she'd be victorious.

2/19:

The 2/24 Tokyo Differ Ariake show has Abe vs. Fang in the first Kanaami Death Match in Japan where the cage has a cieling and an ID4 vs. NEO match of Yabushita & Bloody & Sakai vs. Tamura & Genki & Yuka Nakiamura.

2/18:

2/18 Kanagawa Jd' Yokohama Dojo 65
In the first round of the tournament to decide the next challenge for Jd's double crown, Kurohime beat SAYA 3 falls to 2 in 16:05 and Drake Morimatsu beat KAZUKI 2 falls to 0. The reason for the weird fall numbers is that the match goes on until someone wins two straight falls.
Yabushita & Fang beat Obatchie, Torii, Nishi, & Yamamoto in a handicap match when Fang made Yamamoto submit at 10:51.
Bloody & Sakai beat Ranmaru & Tsukimaru when Bloody made Tsuki submit to Bloody EX at 5:52.

2/11:

2/11 Osaka NGK Studio 370
In a battle of the ID 4 group, Fang Suzuki & Sumie Sakai upset Megumi Yabushita & The Bloody when Fang pinned Bloody at 25:53. Sachie Abe launched a surprise attack on Fang with a board after the match. This sets up a Kanaami (cage) death match between the two on 2/24 at Tokyo Differ Ariake. I guess if Abe wins it's okay with Fang if she breaks her retirement promise, but it seems increasingly more doubtful that she'll retire anytime soon either way.
The Bloody's mother passed away yesterday due to a heart attack. What makes this that much more difficult to take is that she was watching this show when she had the heart attack. She was rushed to the hospital, but died later that night. Not realizing how serious her mother's problem was, Bloody traveled with the rest of the Jd' crew to Osaka for the next days show so she didn't get to see her mother in the hospital before she passed away.

2/10:

2/10 Tokyo Korakuen Hall 980
Fang Suzuki beat Sachie Abe in an LSD 2001 match. Fang won the first two falls, pinning Abe in la magistral at 7:12 and forcing her to submit to a doushime sleeper at 11:18. Abe took the next two falls, pinning Fang in a henkei la magistral at 21:18 and then winning via ring out at 24:44. Just before the 30:00 time limit expired, Fang pinned Abe in an FJ bomb. To win an LSD 2001 match, you simply have to score the last fall, but Abe was unable to pin Fang in the last 17 seconds so by the precvious stipulation she should have been forced to retire. Fang tried to get them to start the 10 count, but there was some silly angle involving a Jd' representative. I think he said that the promotion never accepted the retirement stipulation because Abe is too important to the company. It looks like Abe gets out of this with a defeat and a trip to the hospital for loss of blood. Since she was deprived of her fun today, Fang may do a "retirement ceremony" for Abe on tomorrows "independent performance" of the ID 4 group (the name given to the Bloody, Yabushita, Fang, & Sakai group).
The Bloody & Megumi Yabushita defeated Drake Morimatsu & Kurohime when Yabushita made Kurohime submit to her Yabujuji reverse 4 at 17:12.
Kamen Tenshi Rosetta & Freia made their first successful defense of the TWF Sekai Tag Senshuken, defeating SAYA & KAZUKI when Freia pinned KAZUKI at 11:40.

1/26:

1/26 Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
The new heel group of The Bloody & Megumi Yabushita & Fang Suzuki & Sumie Sakai beat two Jd' teams. First, they beat Drake Morimatsu & SAYA & KAZUKI & Kurohime when Yabushita pinned KAZUKI at 14:02. Then, they beat Sachie Abe & Hiroyo Muto & Ranmaru & Obatchi Iizuka when Bloody made Abe submit to Bloody EX at 13:55.

1/21:

1/21 Tokyo Korakuen Hall 700
Fang Suzuki & Sumie Sakai beat Sachie Abe & Hiroyo Muto when Fang made Abe submit to a kesagatame at 14:49. Yabushita, Bloody, Sakai, & Fang have all declared free agency and are/have become heels. This makes no sense because that leaves no one of note for them to wrestle. Supposedly they want to run their own show. Abe is disgusted that they all broke away from the promotion. She said she'd put her career on the line, and petitioned the Jd' representative to make a match against Fang to settle this dispute. This match will take place on 2/10 at Tokyo Korakuen Hall. It would make sense that the free agents have to come back to Jd' if Abe wins, but I'm not positive whether that's the case or not.
Megumi Yabushita & The Bloody beat Morimatsu & SAYA (Endo) when Bloody made SAYA submit to Bloody EX at 9:03.
Kamen Tenshi Rosetta & Kamen Tenshi Freia captured the TWF Sekai Tag Senshuken from Trick Morimatsu & Fang Suzuki when Rosetta pinned Fang at 11:31. Rosetta & Freia are the 8th champs.

Two new women will debut on the 12/10 card.

10/30 Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall
In a handicap match, The Bloody & Morimatsu & Fang Suzuki beat Megumi Yabushita when Fang pinned Yabushita at 4:18.
Hiroyo Muto once again successfully defended the Jd' Junior Senshuken against KAZUKI. KAZUKI wasn't pinned this time though, instead she lost by DQ at 11:48.

10/8:

10/8 Kanagawa Jd' Yokohama Dojo 90
The Bloody wrestled Megumi Yabushita & Sumie Sakai in a handicap match, but it was declared invalid at 7:46. This came after Yabushita vs. Sakai was declared invalid at 5:20.
Hiroyo Muto made Sachie Abe submit to her Argentine backbreaker at 10:20.

9/23:

9/23 Kanagawa Kawasaki Shi Taiikukan 780
Lioness Asuka successfully defended her TWF Sekai Single Senshuken, pinning Megumi Yabushita in her towerhacker bomb at 11:37. Like Lioness' defense against The Bloody, it was awfully short (and probably did little to elevate the opposition). Unless they are going to try to make people care about their younger wrestlers, it's pointless trying to run big shows because they have to be on top (there's no veterans other than Lioness) but are not taken seriously by many people, and the promotion really hasn't tried to change that.
Morimatsu successfully defended the AWF Sekai Joshi Senshuken, pinning Fang Suzuki at 14:35.
Mima Shimoda & Saya Endo beat Sumie Sakai & Himemaru when Shimoda made Hime submit to a venusgatame 2000 at 17:36.
Hiroyo Muto successfully defended the Jd' Junior Senshuken, pinning KAZUKI at 15:46.

9/22:

9/22 Tokyo Kitazawa Town Hall 85
Megumi Yabushita & Fang Suzuki upset Lioness Asuka & Sumie Sakai when Yabushita made Sakai submit to an udehishigigyakujujigatame at 17:08. Ideally, Yabushita would have beat Lioness since she has zero credibility going into tomorrows title match, but in this day and age, this result was about the best you could have hoped for. Actually, with 85 people in the building, it's not even worth wasting Yabushita over Lioness.
Saya Endo pinned Sachie Abe at 11:29.

9/10:

9/10 Osaka NGK Studio
In a match to decide the next challenger for the Lioness Asuka's TWF Sekai Single Senshuken, Megumi Yabushita made The Bloody submit to an udehishigigyakujujigatame at 32:45. Lioness vs. Yabushita headlines their big 9/23 show at Kawasaki Shi Taiikukan. This will probably be like Lioness vs. Bloody in that it will be really strong wrestling wise, but it'll fall flat because Yabushita won't have any chance of winning. By that I don't mean that we all know Lioness will win because we do, but that they won't even work it in a way that we can suspend disbelief. That's also a big reason why few people will attend. The other matches announced, Morimatsu vs. Fang Suzuki for the AWF Sekai Joshi Senshuken and Hiroyo Muto vs. KAZUKI for the Jd' Junior Senshuken, have very little appeal.
