New Japan 8/11/2026 Results

New Japan continued the G1 CLIMAX 36 today in Mie with Block B.

Today’s event was held at Hinyo Highway Arena in Mie and can be watched on demand on New Japan World.

The announced paid attendance was 2310.

Match 1: Jacob Austin Young & Great-O-Khan beat Masatora Yasuda & Boltin Oleg. Young pinned Yasuda after a spiral brainbuster.

Match 2: Taiji Ishimori & Shingo Takagi beat Yoshinobu Kanemaru & SANADA. Ishinori pinned Kanemaru with Gedo Clutch.

Match 3: Zane Jay & Jake Lee beat Daiki Nagai & Yota Tsuji. Lee pinned Nagai after FBS.

Match 4: Tatsuya Matsumoto & Hirooki Goto beat Gedo & Yuto Ice (Ice Baby). Goto pinned Gedo after GTR.

G1 CLIMAX Block B:
Match 5: Zack Sabre Jr. beat HENARE by ref stoppage (technical submission).
Match 6: Drilla Moloney beat Ren Narita
Match 7: Aaron Wolf beat Callum Newman.
Main Event: Yuya Uemura beat Gabriel Kidd.

Standings (Block B):
1-Uemura, 5-3, 10 pts
2-Newman, 5-3, 10 pts
3-Narita, 5-3, 10 pts
4-Kidd, 5-3, 10 pts
5-Moloney, 5-4, 10 pts
6-Sabre, 4-4, 8 pts (OUT)
7-HENARE, 4-4, 8 pts
8-Wolf, 4-4, 8 pts
9-OSKAR, 4-4, 8 pts
10-Shota Umino, 0-9, 0 pts (OUT)
the top 2 advance to the Semmifinals. Where to start? First, Moloney. He has no matches left so his only hope is every remaining match is a no contest. He is not out officially but is pretty much out. Second, the apocalypse scenario of a 7-way tie! Believe it or not, that and any all-10 point scenario would mean HENARE wins the block, but first he must beat Newman. Complicated stuff-currently the advantage for tiebreakers is held by Narita and Newman. OSKAR and Wolf must win and get a lot of help to have any chances. As for others, Uemura must beat OSKAR AND both Newman & Narita must lose or draw. I’m marking Sabre out because of tiebreakers-he only beat Moloney, HENARE & OSKAR. So there seems to be no real path forward.
Simple stuff now-Newman advances with a win (HENARE) because he then would only lose tiebreaker to Narita. Narita advances by beating Kidd. Kidd must beat Narita and needs either Uemura or Newman to lose.

Sit back and enjoy the CHAOS!!!

The next event is tomorrow at Act City Hamamatsu in Shizuoka with the final day of Block A. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.

DDT 8/11/2026 Results (Updated x2)

WRESTLE PETER PAN 2026, DDT’s biggest event of the year, is now in the books.

Today’s event was held at Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in Japanese.

The paid attendance was not announced. Not a sellout and was also greatly reduced capacity (full capacity is 15,000, usually for sumo).

Match 1: KANON, Yukio Naya & Viento Levante beat KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Sato to win the titles. KANON, Naya & Levante become the 61st KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Champions. Levante pinned Masada.

After that match…

Super Sasadango Machine beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Illusion to win the title. Machine becomes the 1885th Champion. Which led to…

Yuki Ishida beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Super Sasadango Machine to win the title. Ishida becomes the 1886th Champion. Which led to…

Yuni beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Yuki Ishida to win the title. Yuni becomes the 1887th Champion. Which led to…

Kazuki Hirata beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Yuni to win the title. Hirata becomes the 1888th Champion. Which led to…

Akito beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Kazuki Hirata to win the title. Akito becomes the 1889th Champion.

Match 2: Illusion won a 12 man battle royal to win the DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship. Illusion becomes the 1892nd Champion. Also winning the title during the match were Masami Inahata (1890) and Yoshihiko (1891) Which led to…

Kazuki Hirata beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Illusion to win the title. Hirata becomes the 1893rd Champion.

Basically the whole second half-hour of the event was Iron Man title changes. Pro Wrestling, Everybody!!!

Match 3: Minoru Suzuki & Sanshiro Takagi beat Kazuki Hirata & To-y. Takagi pinned To-y after Stone Cold Stunner. As a result, Takagi wins the “Money In The Bank” title challenge rights from To-y.

Match 4: Jun Akiyama & Rukiya beat Jun & Hinata Kasai. Rukiya pinned Hinata Kasai with R. Fisherman’s Buster.

Match 5: In a Barbed Wire Deathmatch, Shunma Katsumata beat DDT Extreme Champion Hideki Okatani to win the title. Katsumata becomes the 65th DDT Extreme Champion. And also wins the “Money In The Bank” title challenge rights from Okatani.

Match 6: Shinya Aoki & Junta Miyawaki beat KO-D Tag Team Champions Chris Brookes & HARASHIMA to win the titles. Aoki & Miyawaki become the 90th KO-D Tag Team Champions. Miyawaki pinned HARASHIMA with Sunshine Clutch.

Match 7: YAMATO (Dragon Gate) beat Danshoku Dieno.

Match 8: Daisuke Sasaki & DOUKI (New Japan) beat Antonio Honda & Tetsuya Endo. Sasaki beat Honda with a crossface.

Match 9: Ryusuke Taguchi (New Japan) beat DDT Universal Champion Kazuma Sumi to win the title. Taguchi becomes the 22nd DDT Universal Champion. Oh My…

Match 10: Konosuke Takeshita beat Kaisei Takechi.

Main Event: MAO beat KO-D Openweight Champion Yuki Ueno to win the title. MAO becomes the 89th KO-D Openweight Champion. It took almost 34 minutes for MAO to end Ueno’s reign and finally win the title for the first time. But then Takagi cashed in! Which led to…

Impromptu Match: KO-D Openweight Champion MAO beat Samshiro Takagi to retain the title. V1 for MAO. So now that leaves Katsumata with the other challenge rights and about a month to use it, but there also is a right to challenge for the right out there.

And to wrap up things after 5+ hours like only DDT can…

Shogo Yamamoto beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Kazuki Hirata to win the title. Yamamoto becomes the 1894th Champion. (Yamamoto was a special guest and is a teammate of Kaiser Takechi in the entertainment group THE RAMPAGE)

It was also announced that next year, the 30th Anniversary Event on 3/22 will be held at Ryogoku Kokugikan. Usually it’s been at Korakuen Hall.

Now then before further wackiness ensues…

The next event is Thursday at Shinjuku Face for the start of a final Beer Garden Pro Wrestling doubleheader at the venue. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET.

UPDATE: 2 title matches have been announced following today’s event: Taguchi’s DDT Universal Championship reign might be a short one because his first challenger is Sasaki. And Aoki & Miyawaki will first defend the tag titles against Akiyama & Rukiya. Those matches will happen on 8/30 at Korakuen Hall.

UPDATE 2: This hopefully won’t affect 8/30 but it was announced afterwards that Rukiya is now out of action. Fever. Out at least a week including the next 3 events (8/13-8/17).

DEVELOPING: Here Comes A New Stardom Challenger? (Updated)

Based on some back-and-forth in the last few hours on social media, it appears a new title match in Stardom could be happening soon, separate from the ongoing 5STAR GP. Future Of Stardom Champion Ranna Yagami, who has been on an international excursion as she is not participating in the 5STAR GP, has had a potential challenger emerge on the socials-following Yagami defending the title in the US last month (V7 for Yagami) and basically issuing an open challenge to anyone there, Izzy Moreno, a Florida-based independent wrestler, has stepped up to accept the challenge. And Yagami has also accepted, now she has asked Stardom President Taro Okada to make it happen. According to a response from Okada, he’s working on it.

More as it becomes available.

UPDATE: It’s now official. That match will happen on Friday (8/14) at a Coastal Championship Wrestling (CCW) event in Kissimmee, FL. And the winner will then defend on Saturday (8/15) at another CCW event in Doral, FL vs. Remi Reade.

Pro Wrestling NOAH 8/10/2026 Results (Updated x2)

Pro Wrestling NOAH ran another Legacy Rose 2026 event today in Tokyo.

Today’s event was held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The announced paid attendance was 1292.

Match 1: Hiroya Namiki Debut Match: Daiki Odashima beat Hiroya Namiki. Namiki, 24, is about 5’8” and 77 kg/about 170 pounds so he is/will be a Junior Heavyweight. They went just short of 8 minutes.

Match 2: Naomichi Matufuji & Kenoh beat AMAKUSA & Black Menso-re. Marufuji pinned Menso-re after a round fist.

Match 3: Yoshiki Inamura, Kazuyuki Fujita, Katsumi Inabata & Hiroto Tsuruya beat Manabu Soya, Yuki Iino (DDT), Super Crazy & Yuto Koyanagi. Inamura pinned Koyanagi after Musou.

Match 4: OZAWA, Alpha Wolf & Jun Masaoka beat KENTA, Shane Haste & Midori Takahashi. OZAWA pinned Takahashi after a sean dive moonsault.

Match 5: Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI & RYUSEI beat Kaito Kiyomiya, Kid Lykos 1 & 2. Naito pinned 2.

Match 6: Tadasuke beat YO-HEY by DQ. Ref assault. (Post-script: This apparently led to YO-HEY turning on Manabu Soya and joining Team 2000X)

Match 7: GHC200 Inaugural Champion Tournament Final: HAYATA beat Tetsuya Endo to win the tournament and become the inaugural GHC200 Champion. This was originally a Semifinal match but the other Semifinal didn’t happen because all the potential participants were eliminated per tournament rules (time limit draw meant both wrestlers were out).

Match 8: GHC Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Dragon Bane & Alejandro beat Atsushi Kotoge & Hi69 to retain the titles. Alejandro pinned Hi69 after Sperlana. V5 for the champs.

Main Event: Kai Fujinura beat GhC Junior Heavyweight Champion Eita to win the title. Fujimura becomes the 63rd GHC Junior Heavyweight Champion. UPSET ALERT!!! It probably took a lot of Team 2000X assistance, but nevertheless is an upset in my book.

In major post-event news/fallout, the full field for this year’s N-1 VICTORY Tournament has been announced. It’s a 2-block round-robin format event with 16 participants. The fireld is as follows:

Block A: Kaito Kiyomiya, Shane Haste, Kazuyuki Fujita, Takashi Sugiura, Yoshiki Inamura, Yuki Iino, Chen (a newcomer from Southeast Asia), Alpha Wolf. That guarantees another HOSS FIGHT ALERT!! because of Inamura & Fujita facing off. (Post-script: Chen already has a profile on NOAH’s website as a participating player, alongside several other international wrestlers who appear occasionally. He is a 13-year veteran from Singapore who signed with WWE in 2017 and left the promotion earlier this year)

Block B: Kenoh, Tetsuya Endo, Kouga (from England’s Progress Wrestling), Masa Kitamiya, KENTA, Manabu Soya, Titus Alexander, OZAWA.

The most notable name missing is Marufuji, presumably because he is GHC National Champion.

The tournament runs from 9/12-10/4. All events will be available live and immediately on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The next event is Saturday at Shimizu Marine Building in Shizuoka. There will be no live or on demand broadcast.

UPDATE: During this event, AMAKUSA issued a GHC National Championship challenge to Marufuji. AMAKUSA wants it in Kumamoto, his home area. That could possibly mean 9/15 at Kumamoto Castle Hall, assuming that event goes on as planned in the wake of the massive earthquake in the area recently. Updates to follow.

It was also announced that the next challengrs for GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Manabu Soya & Yuki Iino will be…Inamura & Fujita. Interesting. That match will happen on 8/23 at Culttz Kawasaki in Kanagawa.

UPDATE 2: It’s now official. Matufuji-AMAKUSA will happen on 9/15 in Kumamoto. Also official is Naito’s first title challenger-the 2026 N-1 VICTORY winner. That match will happen on 10/25 at Ryogoku Kokugikan. Also set if Fujimura’s first challenger-Alejandro. That match will happen on 9/23z

2-AZM, 4-1-1, 9 pts (Advances)
3-Aoki, 4-3, 8 pts
4-Tora, 3-2-2, 8 pts (OUT)

7-Kurara, 2-6, 4 pts (OUT)

1-Iida, 4-1-1, 9 pts (Advances)
2-Yamashita, 3-1-3, 9 pts
3-Konami, 4-2, 8 pts
4-Itoh, 3-1-2, 8 pts
5-Hayashishita, 2-3-1, 5 pts (OUT)
6-Azusa Inaba, 1-4-2, 4 pts (OUT)
7-Mei Seira, 1-2-1, 3 pts
8-C, 1-5, 2 pts (OUT)

The top 3 in each block advance to the playoffs, with the winners going to the Quarterfinals.
In the Red A block, AZM and Maika are through but everything else is far from settled. Let’s go through it one by one:
First, AZM. She advances. If she beats Rina, she needs Maika to lose or draw (Kurogame) to win the block. If it’s a draw, AZM needs Maika to lose to win the block, otherwise she finishes 2nd. If AZM loses, she finishes 3rd. If AZM and Maika both win, Maika wins the block on the tiebreaker and AZM finishes 2nd, and Aoki would get 3rd and advance on tiebreaker (she beat Tora).
Second, Maika. She advances. If she beats Kurogame, she wins the block because she beat AZM. If it’s a draw, she wins the block if AZM loses or draws. If she loses, she finishes 2nd if AZM wins, but if AZM also loses there will be a Maika-Rina rematch to determine who wins the block because they went to a draw and would be even on the second tiebreaker, which is wins. So no matter what, she will be 1st or 2nd.
Third, Rina. She MUST beat AZM. If she does, she finishes 2nd at worst. But if Rina wins AND Maika loses, there will be a tiebreaker rematch for 1st. If Rina draws, she finishes 3rd on tiebreakers because she beat Aoki. If Rina loses, she is OUT.
Finally, Aoki. This is the simplest scenario of all. For her to advance in 3rd, Rina must lose because she has tiebreaker over Tora. Otherwise she is OUT.
Tora can’t advance because she loses the tiebreaker to Aoki.

Now onto Red B:
It’s completely unsettled for one very big reason: Seira has THREE matches left. But first to the top and working down:
Starting with Iida-she advances because she currently has all tiebreakers (her only loss is to Hayashishita). If she beats Seira, she wins the block. Iida also wins the block with a loss or draw if Itoh-Konami is a draw AND Seira does not win out. If Iida loses, the Itoh-Konami winner wins the block if there is one. Worst-case for Iida is 3rd.
Second, Yamashita. She can’t win the block because Iida was a draw and Iida has more wins and she is done. She needs Seira to get AT LEAST one loss or draw AND Itoh-Konami to be a no contest (it MUST be a no points scenario). If Itoh-Konami has a winner, Seira MUST lose or draw at least one of her last 3 matches to advance. But if there is an Itoh-Konami winner AND Seira wins her last 3, Yamashita is OUT because her one loss was Seira.
Third, Konami. She must beat Itoh to advance outright. If it’s a draw, Seira MUST lose or draw at least once more.-if that happens, Konami has the tiebreakers and would advance in 3rd (she lost to Iida and Yamashita). If she loses, Konami is OUT.
Fourth, Itoh. Very simple for once. She must beat Konami or draw to advance as she has tiebreaker over Seira. If she loses, Itoh is OUT.
Finally, Seira. She still has Iida, C and Hayashishita. She MUST WIN ALL 3 AND Itoh-Konami MUST have a winner. If she loses or draws ONCE, Seira is OUT because she loses tiebreakers to both Itoh and Konami. Seira does have tiebreaker over Yamashita.

Got all that?

The next event is Friday at Kobe Sambo Hall in Kobe with both Blue Blocks and Seira-C. Live streaming on Stardom World will begin at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET.

Pro Wrestling NOAH 8/9/2026 Results

Pro Wrestling NOAH ran their latest Legacy Rise 2026 event today in Tokyo.

Today’s event was held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in English. This was an exclusive ABEMA broadcast in Japan.

The announced paid attendance was 1589, a legit advance sellout including standing room only tickets.

Match 1: Mohammed Yone, Atsushi Kotoge, Hajime Ohara & Hi69 beat Dragon Bane, Alejandro, SHuji Konfo & Katsumi Inahata. Kotoge pinned INahata after a bat hanging drop.

Match 2: Kid Lykos 1 & 2 beat Yuto Koyanagi & Midori Takahashi, BUSHI & RYUSEI and Super Crazy & Black Menso-re in a 4-way when 1 pinned Takahashi.

Match 3: Eita & Daiki Odashima vs. Kai Fujimura & Jun Masaoka went to a double countout in 51 seconds. Which led to…
Match 3 (again): Kai Fujimura & Jun Masaoka beat Eita & Daiki Odashima by DQ. Eita DQ’d.

GHC200 Inaugural Championship Tournament Quarterfinals:
Match 4: HAYATA beat Masa Kitamiya by countout.
Match 5: Tetsuya Endo beat AMAKUSA.

Match 6: YO-HEY Return Match: OZAWA, Takashi Sugiura & Tadasuke beat Manabu Soya, Yuki Iino (DDT) & YO-HEY. Tadasuke pinned YO-HEY.

GHC200 Inaugural Championship Tournament Quarterfinals:
Match 7: Kenoh vs. Alpha Wolf went to a 200 second time limit draw. Both eliminated.
Match 8: Kaito Kiyomiya vs. Yoshiki Inamura went to a 200 second time limit draw. Both eliminated.

Match 9: GHC National Champion Naomichi Marufuji beat KENTA to retain the title. V4 for Marufuji.

Main Event: Tetsuya Naito beat GHC Heavyweight Champion SHane Haste to win the title. Naito becomes the 51st GHC Heavyweioght Champion. As expected, Destino. Kinda saw this one coming, although it was funny build when the built-in English translation option on NOAH’s official website was sometimes calling Haste “Shane McMahon” this past week. Yikes.

The next event is tomorrow. The full card is TBA still and in particular the GHC200 Semifinals & Finals-because only HAYATA & Endo advanced they may wind up being the Finals as they are the only Semifinal due to everyone else being eliminated, which could also mean rematches at a later date. We’ll see what happens. Both GHC Junior Heavyweight titles will also be defended tomorrow. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.

New Japan 8/9/2026 Results

New Japan continued the G1 CLIMAX 36 today with the penultimate day of Block A.

Today’s event was held at G Messe Gunma in Gunma and can be watched on demand on New Japan World. You can also watch the first 2 matches FOR FREE on YouTube.

The announced paid attendance was 1615.

Match 1: Gedo & OSKAR (The Grouch0 beat Taisei Nakahara & Torau Yano. OSKAR beat Nakahara with a camel clutch.

Match 2; Zane Jay & Callum Newman beat Tatsuya Matsumoto & Aaron Wolf. Newman pinned Matsumoto after Prince’s Curse.

Match 3: Dick Togo & Ren Narita beat Daiki Nagai & Drilla Moloney. Narita pinned Nagai with a blizzard suplex hold.

Match 4: Hartley Jackson & Zack Sabre Jr. beat Jacob Austin Young & HENARE. Jackson pinned Young after a jumping powerbomb,

G1 CLIMAX Block A:
Match 5: Ryohei Oiwa beat Jake Lee.
Match 6: Konosuke Takeshita beat SANADA.
Match 7: Yota Tsuji beat Great-O-Khan.
Match 8: Hirooki Goto beat Boltin Oleg.
Main Event: Yuto Ice (Ice Baby) beat Shingo Takagi.

Standings:
1-Takeshita, 6-2, 12 pts
2-Tsuji, 5-3, 10 pts
3-Oiwa, 5-3, 10 pts
4-Oleg, 5-3, 10 pts
5-Ice, 4-4, 8 pts
6-Takagi, 4-4, 8 pts
7-Goto, 3-5, 6 pts (OUT)
8-SANADA, 3-5, 6 pts (OUT)
9-Lee, 3-5, 6 pts (OUT)
10-Khan, 2-6, 4 pts (OUT)
The top 2 advance to the Semifinals. While 6 still have a chance, realistically it’s down to 4. Ice & Takagi would need nearly impossible tiebreaker scenarios to have any chance, and they both would need Oiwa to lose and to win their last respective matches, so let’s focus on the top 4. It’s not as clear as it seems. First, if Takeshita beats Oiwa or draws, he advances. If Oiwa beats Takeshita, he needs Tsuji to lose or draw (Lee). Tsuji advances if he beats Lee as he has tiebreakers over Takeshita & Oiwa, but not Oleg. Oleg has a chance-he must beat Khan, but his problem is he loses the tiebreakers to Takeshita and Oiwa even though he beat Tsuji. It will all be settled on Wednesday.

The next event is Tuesday at Nihon Haiway Arena in Mie with Block B. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 1 AM PT/4 AM ET.

All-Japan Pro Wrestling 8/9/2026 LIVE Results

All-Japan kicks off the Summer Action Wars 2026 Tour today along with the Zennichi Jr. Festival tournament. This year’s Jr. Heavyweight singles tournament saw a major shakeup before it even got started earlier this week when top contender Atsuki Aoyagi was pulled from the tournament due to a knee injury suffered last weekend, which will keep him out a while and also forced him & Rising Hayato to vacate the All-Asia Tag Team Championship. There was enough time to find a replacement, but unfortunately for the rest of the field it’s Dragon Gate veteran and current GAORA TV Champion Masaaki Mochizuki. The tournament is a round-robin format with 2 blocks of 6 and everyone will be in action today. Also, for fun and as a point of interest, the promotion ran a fan poll on Japanese social media asking who fans thought would win the tournament (and correct picks will get a prize). The top pick was very surprising…Hokuto Omori!?! Save that and we’ll revisit it at the end!

Before today’s event there will be a memorial ceremony for longtime All-Japan wrestler and PWF President Dory Funk Jr., who died earlier this week at 85.

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on AJPW.TV in Japanese. This will also be a Samurai! TV broadcast in Japan. The event will start 20 minutes early for the memorial ceremony and also an entrance ceremony for the Zennichi Jr. Festival and there will be no intermission today, and with all 8 matches having a 30 minute time limit it could go as long as 4 hours but realistically it will be closer to 3 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Pre-show:
Dory Funk Jr. Memorial Ceremony
Zennichi Jr. Festival Entrance Ceremony

Main show:
Zennichi Jr. Festival Block B:
Dan Tamura vs. Yuya Aoki
Shota Kofuji vs. Naruki Doi

G1 CLIMAX Block B:
Match 6: Zack Sabre Jr. beat Drilla Moloney.
Match 7: Yuya Uemura beat HENARE.
Match 8: Ren Narita beat Aaron Wolf by submission.
Main Event: Callum Newman beat OSKAR (The Grouch).

Standings (Block B):
1-Newman, 5-2, 10 pts
2-Narita, 5-2, 10 pts
3-Gabriel Kidd, 5-2, 10 pts
4-Uemura, 4-3, 8 pts
5-HENARE, 4-3, 8 pts
6-Moloney, 4-4, 8 pts
7-OSKAR, 4-4, 8 pts
8-Wolf, 3-4, 6 pts
9-Sabre, 3-4, 6 pts
10-Shota Umino, 0-9, 0 pts (OUT-injured)
The top 2 advance to the Semifinals. It’s complicated with everyone except Umino of course still in it, but it’s probably going to come down to tiebreakers. If the top 3 stayed the same at the end with these same totals, it currently would favor Narita because he beat Newman but hasn’t faced Kidd yet. Kidd lost to Moloney and Newman and has yet to face Narita. Moloney actually has the advantage having beaten all of the top 3, but he has only one match left. OSKAR has tiebreakers over Moloney & Narita but also has only one match left. Sabre has only beaten Moloney and same for Wolf, but the latter still has Newman left.

The next event is tomorrow at G Messe Gunma in Gunma with Block A. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin TONIGHT at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.
