TJPW Stand Proud 2021: Miyu Yamashita Hands Sakisama First Singles Defeat

The Princess of Princess Champion Miyu Yamashita was able to hand Sakisama her first singles pinfall loss in Tokyo Joshi Pro at their Stand Proud 2021 event. Yamashita was able to pick up the victory following a Crash Rabbit Heat.

The pair had collided recently in a pair of tag team matches, in which Sakisama’s team of NEO Biishiki-gun with Mei Saint-Michel had been victorious both times over Yamashita’s team with Maki Itoh known as 121000000 (or 1 to 1 Million.)

Both competitors were supported at ringside by their respective tag team partners for the match, and Itoh celebrated in the ring with her partner following her big win.
