アイスリボン
Before leaving Ice Ribbon, Toyota suggested that Tsukushi should form a new tag team with Tsukasa Fujimoto; the two followed the suggestion and dubbed their new team "Dropkickers". On October 15, Dropkickers wrestled Chisako and Sachiko to a twenty-minute time limit draw; as a result, the title was once again declared vacant. The following day, Tsukushi defeated Riho to earn the right to represent Ice Ribbon at Sendai Girls' Joshi Puroresu Dantai Taikou Flash tournament, a single-elimination tournament, where different "joshi" promotions battled each other. On October 27, Team Ice Ribbon (Tsukushi, Emi Sakura, Hikari Minami, Hikaru Shida and Tsukasa Fujimoto) was eliminated from the tournament in the first round by Team Sendai Girls' (Meiko Satomura, Dash Chisako, Kagetsu, Miyako Morino and Sendai Sachiko), when Tsukushi was pinned by Chisako. On December 2, Tsukushi defeated Kurumi to regain the IW19 Championship. The rivalry between Ice Ribbon and Sendai Girls' culminated on December 25 at "RibbonMania 2011", where Tsukushi and Emi Sakura faced Meiko Satomura and Sendai Sachiko in a match for the vacant International Ribbon Tag Team Championship. Tsukushi won the match for her team and Ice Ribbon by pinning Sachiko, thus winning the International Ribbon Tag Team Championship for the first time. However, as Sakura had announced just prior to the match that she would be leaving Ice Ribbon the following month, her and Tsukushi's reign lasted only three days before they lost the title to Hikaru Shida and Maki Narumiya. On January 7, 2012, Tsukushi defeated Sakura in her Ice Ribbon farewell match.
