Pro Wrestling NOAH 2/23/2026 LIVE Results

Pro Wrestling NOAH finishes up the preliminary round of the NOAH Jr. Tag League today with a holiday matinee in Fukuoka. 5 teams still have a chance at the top 2 spots that advance to the Finals, and while Alpha Wolf & Kai Fujimura have a 2-point advantage they’re not clear by any means. The other 4 teams are at 8 points which could make for some complicated tiebreaker scenarios.

Today’s event will be held at Acros Fukuoka in Fukuoka and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will be no commentary. There are 8 matches scheduled today so it may run a little longer than a normal house show although the tournament matches are only 15 minute time limits, so I’ll predict the running time will be around 2 1/4 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Kaito Kiyomiya & Harutoki vs. Kenoh & Yuto Koyanagi
Galeno vs. Midori Takahashi
Naomichi Marufuji, Mohammed Yone & Hiroto Tsuruya vs. KENTA, HAYATA & Tetsuya Endo
NOAH Jr. Tag League:
Atsushi Kotoge & Hi69 vs. Eita & Katsumi Inahata
AMAKUSA & Black Menso-re vs. Tadasuke & Jun Masaoka
Mark Trew & Kieron Lacey vs. Alpha Wolf & Kai Fujimura
Yoshiki Inamura, Manabu Soya & Hajime Ohara vs. OZAWA, Masa Kitamiya & Takashi Sugiura
NOAH Jr. Tag League: Daga & Daiki Odashima vs. Dragon Bane & Alejandro

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET. The live stream is scheduled to begin 10 minutes before the event.

7:50 PM PT UPDATE: The live stream has begun. We should be going to the venue in 5-10 minutes.

7:55 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Acros Fukuoka in Fukuoka, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The setup appears to be for around 500 (I think the full capacity for wrestling is 650-700) and while the crowd is still filing in right now it’s a mixed bag. I’ll guess it’ll be a little on the low side for a holiday midday Monday and say it’ll be around 350. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 559. Really late arriving crowd I guess, but we also couldn’t see much on hard camera)

The matches will begin shortly.

The matches begin right on time at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET.

Match 1: Kaito Kiyomiya & Harutoki vs. Kenoh & Yuto Koyanagi. 15 minute time limit
Result: Kaito Kiyomiya & Harutoki beat Kenoh & Yuto Koyanagi. Kiyomiya pinned Koyanagi after a jumping knee strike.

Match 2: Galeno vs. Midori Takahashi. 15 minute time limit
Result: Galeno beat Midori Takahashi. Short match possibly cut shorter by a potential Takahashi injury. Neck or shoulder. We’ll see.

AMAKUSA/Menso-re finish 1-5-1, 3 pts. Tadasuke/Masaoka finish 4-3, 8 pts. They now need an absolute miracle and then some to have any chance at finishing top 2 due to tiebreakers-they only beat Dragon Bane & Alejandro.

Intermission. The event will resume in 10-15 minutes (as of 9 PM PT/midnight ET).

The matches resume at 9:14 PM PT/12:15 AM ET.

Bane/Alejandro finish 5-2, 10 pts. Daga/Odashima finish 4-3, 8 pts. As a result, Bane/Odashima finish 2nd and advance to the Finals.
The Final will be Wolf/Fujimura vs. Bane/Alejandro. The winner likely will face Daga/Odashima in the near future for the GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship.

The Final is Sunday at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin Saturday at 6:30 PM PT/9:30 PM ET.

Sumo-Note Regarding March 2026 Banzuke

With one day left in the tournament before the Finals here are the scenarios and there is a lot to unpack:
Wolf/Fujimura advance to the Finals with a win or draw tomorrow (Trew/Lacey). They are OUT with a loss AND Tadasuke/Masaoka win.
Trew/Lacey advance with a win AND Daga/Odashima-Bane/Alejandro MUST BE A DRAW because Trew/Lacey lose tiebreakers to both. They are OUT if it’s not OR with a loss or draw.
Tadasuke/Masaoka advance with a win AND Wolf/Fujimura win or draw AND Bane/Alejandro win or draw. They are OUT with Daga/Odashima win due to tiebreakers OR if Trew/Lacey win.
Bane/Alejandro advance with a win AND Tadasuke/Masaoka must lose or draw (AMAKUSA?Menso-re). They are OUT with a loss.
Daga/Odashima advance with a win.
If Daga/Odashima-Bane/Alejandro is a draw AND Wolf/Fujimira win or draw AND Tadasuke/Masaoka lose, there will be a Daga/Odashima-Bane/Alejandro rematch as the tiebreaker.
And if there are more than 3 teams tied? Well…let the promotion figure it out!
Daga/Odashima-Bane/Alejandro will be the main event tomorrow.

The next event is tomorrow at Acros Fukuoka in Fukuoka. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin TONIGHT at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET.
