Ice Ribbon 3/26/2022 - Ice Ribbon #1188

Ice Ribbon 3/26/2022 - Ice Ribbon #1188

Yuuki Mashiro vs. Sumika Yanagawa vs. Saran

They do a three person wristlock then Yuuki and Sumika each work Saran's arm. Saran crossbodies Yuuki then is tied up in the ropes and takes a double knee. The girls all try roll-ups on each other then Yuuki rolls up both at the same time (this exact same spot as done almost at the exact same timne on TJPW today).

Sumika hits a stiff boot to the chest of Yuuki then Yuuki went for eye pokes. Saran came off the top and crossbodied both during it. Saran then hit some dropkicks but they didn't phase Yuuki until about the 5th one. Saran pounded on her opponent with forearms then sunset flipped Yuuki with Sumika also trying to get the pin. Yuuki then blocked Saran's roll-up and rolled her up for the win.

This was short and fast paced and wasn't bad at all. Saran continues to impress and is really getting better by the show here.

Yappy vs Misa Kagura

Yappy hurt her knee and hasn't been wrestling much. They shoulder battle to start and Yappy splahes her back on the ropes. Yappy throws Misa then sits on her throat on the bottom rope. Yappy sits on Misa's back and double reverse armbars her. Misa comes back with a dropkick and tries to boston crab her but Yappy blocks it.

Yappy puts her inbetween the buckles then splashes her. Yappy then gives her a hard running hip attack while she is kneeling. She then butt drops her as she lays chest up on the bottom rope. Misa flurry forearms Yappy in the corner then sits on her back while she is standing for a double reverse armbar.

Yappy nails her with a lariat, knocking her over then she airplane spins her into a drop for 2. Yappy hits a sloppy slam. Misa goes up top and sunset flips her then just sits on her and pulls forward to win. Yappy goes after Misa after the match and has to be stopped.

The finish was out of nowhere and seemed botched. This was a decent one though with Yappy bringing some hoss work here. 

Asahi vs Tsukasa Fujimoto

Asahi dropkicks her as she has her robe on then Tsuka gives it back. Asahi headscissors her then facebusters her for 2. Tsuka puts her in the octopus stretch. Tsuka then ties her up in the ropes and dropkicks Asahi in the back. Tsuka charges at her and Asahi hits a nice spin into a grounded octopus.

Asahi top rope dropkicks her then Tsuka cmes back with a heavenly lock on her. Asahi top rope dropkicks her for 2 and they trade forearms. Asahi hits some roll-ups for 2 then hits some double axe handle shots. They both try for roll-ups as the time gets close to expiring and Tsuka hits some PK's for a close 2. Asahi hits a northern lights suplex but the time expires.

This was real fast paced and Asahi got a lot in here. She got a few moves in that I didn't expect and did a lot of the work here. This wasn't bad at all and continues to show Asahi's improvement.

Nao Ishikawa & Totoro Satsuki vs. Kaho Matsushita & Tsukushi Haruka

Totoro and Tsukushi meet for the title like 24 hours after this happens. Tsu tries to armdrag her but gets blocked and then armdragged. Tsu goes for her roll-up into a double stomp but Totoro moves. Nao gets in and slams Tsu then works over Kaho. Totoro delay slams Kaho then slams Nao on Kaho at 5 minutes. Nao sits on Kaho but Tsu dropkicks her off. Kaho then hits a nice dropkick on Nao then Tsu does as well.

Tsu forces Totoro to armdrag Nao in a dumb spot then pushes her into a splash on Nao. Nao surfboards Tsu then puts her on her back only to gutbuster her. Totoro gets in and sentons Tsu then goes for a crossbody but Tsu counters with a dropkick in mid-air. They trade forearms and Tsu wins that exchange with a flurry of them. Totoro goes up top and Tsu tries to snap mare her and ends up dangling from her, then Kaho has to help. Totoro then akes a double team kick for 2 then Tsu's short hurricanrana.

Totoro shoulders over Kaho then Nao cartwheel splashes her. Tsu dropkicks her through the ropes then Tsu and Naho top rope dropkick Totoro. Nao top rope crossbodies Kaho then Totoro does a rolling fireman's carry to her, but Tsu top rope double stomps her. Tsu is on the bottom rope and Totoro hits a stiff lariat, sending her crashing hard over the ropes. Totoro crossbodies Kaho for 2 then sentons her off the 2nd rope for the win.

This was a good one. The action was fast paced, they connected on their shots and it was the standard Ice Ribbon dojo main event just as you like it. Totoro and Tsukushi matched up well here and I'd like to see their match this weekend if it ever airs.

Tototor and Tsukushi talk on the mic after then everyone comes out for the photo-op.

Overall thoughts: I liked this one. All four of the matches were decent and the main was good.
