Smile. Win. Yay!



Princess Cup is turning 10 years old and the field is wide open. The past two winners of the tournament are not participating this year (Yuka due to injuries, Itoh is in America) and perennial favourite Mizuki is the current champion so probably won't be winning it all. Maybe Miyu will finally win her first singles tournament after breaking her curse with Max Heart. Maybe Rika will attempt to hold both singles titles at the same time, or her partner Miu will finally break through after such a gutsy performance last year. Or Suzume. Or Shoko. Even Hikari or Arai could sneak their way into the finals through their relatively weak block. One thing is for sure, the real winners will be us the fans.

First Round
Miyu Yamashita vs Mizuki
Hyper Misao vs Moka Miyamoto
Raku vs Rika Tatsumi
Suzume vs Shoko Nakajima
Kamiyu vs Nao Kakuta
Yuki Arai vs Miu Watanabe
Arisu Endo vs Mahiro Kiryu
Hikari Noa vs Yuki Arai

All of the first round shows do not look to have commentary but as of now the Quarters on the 29th will feature English commentary from our favourite couple of degenerates. Shows for the next three days are starting at 11:30am JST/10:30pm EDT

Ready for this to be invalidated on Night 1 when Miyu rampages through to win the whole thing, but I could easily see Misao banana peeling her way into the semi finals to make way for a Miu victory.

miyu beating mizuki in the first round before winning the whole thing would make her an incredibly strong challenger for wrestle princess. it's the most compelling story i can piece together. also, she is the coolest one

Her style is new but the face is the same as it was so long ago...
Betting against Yuki Arai is probably not the smartest move, but Hikari deserves some triumph. I do think Miu could win, she feels poised to really break through to the main event.


I remember Miu and Yuki Aino having a real banger match in a previous Princess Cup, I can't wait to see what they do this time. High hopes for Suzume vs. Shoko too.

Would you be my new best friends?

I mentioned it before but Wrestle Universe is STILL giving me a "we couldn't charge you for the month" message despite me updating my card, but it also has a little message saying,"It might take a while to process this" and I still have access to Wrestle Universe so I have no loving clue if my membership is still active or not. Their instructions for "resetting payment" are super-confusing and seemingly out-of-date (and presumably roughly translated), does anybody else have any kind of experience with this?

i'm dealing with the exact same thing right now, and their instructions don't line up with the website. i cancelled my membership but it still works? i get that popup thing, so i figure i'll sign up again as soon as it stops working

Yeah I just "canceled" my account and it said my next renewal date was on the 1st of July, so I pushed cancel again and it said I had canceled my cancellation and now the next renewal date is for the 1st of August :psyduck:

So I think I've fixed the problem? I guess I'll find out in August! Bizarre!

Just realized that since they'll be wrestling 3 days in a row, we'll probably see some older gear in action again.

That also might be rough on the rookies who don't have other gear to switch between.
