On New Year’s Eve, joshi company Ice Ribbon ran their biggest show of the year RibbonMania. All three titles were on the line and all three changed hands.
Former Referee Banny Oikawa won the Triangle Ribbon title in her very first match. As the name would indicate, this match is usually defended in triple threat matches but Oikawa won it in a fatal four way.
The team of Kyuri and Maika Ozaki won the titles from Lovely Butcher (Hamuko Hoshi & Mochi Miyagi) as Ozaki won her first title in Ice Ribbon and Kyuri captures her second.
So excited to see the well deserved crowning of @Kyuri_ice and @sister_plus as the NEW International Ribbon Tag Team Champions. Congratulations! #iceribbon #ribbonmania pic.twitter.com/StYMdj8EXq
