The 10th annual Tokyo Princess Cup tournament is over, momentous occasion for a lot of reasons, and a genuinely great performance in the final. Share your thoughts here.
Do you watch TJPW? Why or why not?
Who did you hope was going to win? Who did you expect was going to?
I think Yamashita winning the Princess Cup was long overdue. It's not like she isn't booked strong, but they've been using her as a means to put over other talent in tournaments for a literal decade. A win for Kamiyu would have been amazing, but the effort she showed certainly made her look strong. From the first move, Kamiyu knew what she was up against, and she left everything in the ring. I hope she's proud of the performance she put on.
I said this in another post but the look on her face when they zoomed in during her entrance was a "oh god here we go" face if I've ever seen one.
