GLEAT 10/16/2026 Results

GLEAT held a special event today open only to members of their relatively new (that I know of) fan club.

Today’s event was held at Basement MonStar in Tokyo and may be available on demand on YouTube at a later date. There was no live broadcast.

This was a free event with tickets distributed by lottery so no paid attendance. I’m guessing that meant the crowd was in the range of 75-80. Remember this is a VERY SMALL venue that may not even hold 100.

Match 1: In a G-Rush Rules 5-way elimination match for a G-RUSH Championship shot, Vent Vert Jack vs. Keiichi Sato, Kohei Kinoshita, ARASHI & Kapy went to a 7 minute time limit draw with Jack, Sato & Kinoshita still in the match. Which led to…
Match 1 (continued): Vent Vert Jack beat Keiichi Sato & Kobei Konishita in a 3-way elimination match. As a result, Jack earned the title shot.

Match 2: Takehiro Yamamura, Quiet Storm & Yuya Aoki beat T-Hawk, Tetsuya Izuchi & Jo Yamamoto. Storm pinned Yamamoto after 53cm Arm Lariat.

New Japan News: Potential Title Match Setup Saturday

New Japan has added an interesting match to Saturday’s Taichi hometown school event-not that there’s anything interesting about Yoh vs. Satoshi Kojima. But here’s the interesting part-if Kojima wins AND can get his weight down to 100 kg/220 lbs or less in time (which will be before the event), Kojima will get an IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship shot in the future. If Kojima is at the weight listed in bis profile on New Japan’s website, which is 108 kg/237.6 pounds, that’s less than 2 days now to cut 17.6 pounds. Yes, MMA fighters do these ridiculous (and dangerous) weight cuts all the time and sometimes boxers do too, but we also must keep in mind Kojima is 56. The Bread Club must rally and send him lots of high-fiber bread! The kicker here seems to be that Taichi was a Junior Heavyweight before moving up to Heavyweight in 2018 and it really moved his career forward, so can Kojima do it in reverse? Not that he needs to as he still is doing well for himself, especially in the US Independent (and now New Japan partner) Major League Wrestling (MLW).

We’ll see what happens at event time. The event will be a PPV on New Japan World.

Injury Report: El UnGLEAT Step

There are too many GLEAT bad puns I have because they seem to have more injuries than any other promotion I follow here. The latest is El Lindaman. Foot. Occurred yesterday during practice. Out indefinitely including the next event Friday. If there were pending card changes they were quietly made as he is not on the card. It’s not yet known how long Lindaman may be out but after this Friday GLEAT’s next event is in 2 weeks and the injury was to the top of the foot so hopefully not serious. Lindaman has apologized on social media for being absent.

More as it becomes available.

Tokyo Joshi Pro 10/14/2026 Results (Updated)

Tokyo Joshi Pro ran their latest TJPW INSPIRATION event today, continuing the usually-quarterly series of shorter events focused on comedy matches and match types & wrestlers rarely seen in the promotion.

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

The announced paid attendance was 202, a super full house/very near sellout.

Match 1: Nexgene Tournament: Shion Kanzaki beat Chieri Sakimori by submission. This is double-elimination so Sakimori is out with another loss.

Match 2: MIRAI (Michinoku Pro) beat Momo Sato.

Match 3: Great Wakabayashi-kun aka Rika Tatsumi beat Pom Harajuku & HIMAWARI in a 3-way by pinning HIMAWARI.

Match 4: Yuki Kamifuku & Zac (Battle Mode) beat Shoko Nakajima & Pocotan Kamifuku pinned Pocotan after Fameasser. Zac was a full-size costumed version of Kamifuku’s actual pet dog, which she brought to the ring with her. Almost certainly the only time given the dog is 13 and Kamifuku has about 70 days left until retirement.

Main Event: Suzume & Arisu Endo vs. Haru Kazashiro & Uta Takami went to a 20 minute time limit draw. Afterwards, Takami issued an International Princess Championship challenge to Suzume. That match will happen on 11/8 at Korakuen Hall once it is made official. So we’ve got our 3 title matches for the next signature event.

The next event is Sunday at Wadanai Sports Center in Ishikawa. There will be no live broadcast. On demand 10/20.

UPDATE: It’s now official. Suzume-Takami has just been announced for 11/8.

New Japan News: Post-Major Event News/Fallout (Updated)

New Japan did their usual post-major event news dump today coming out of KING OF PRO WRESTLING yesterday, mostly focused on POWER STRUGGLE on 11/3 and the upcoming Super Junior Tag League:

First, here is what was announced for the 11/3 blowout event in Hiroshima: IWGP Heavyweight Champion Yota Tsuji vs. Boltin Oleg & Kenny Omega in a 3-way NON-TITLE match, IWGP Global Champion Gabriel Kidd vs. Taichi for the title, IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions OSKAR & Yuto Ice vs. Will Ospreay & Callum Newman for the titles, Shingo Takagi & Jeff Cobb vs. Jon Moxley & Wheeler Yuta and the Super Junior Tag League Finals. The 3-way suggests if Tsuji loses, the winner could get the main event title shot at Tokyo Dome given all that’s left after 11/3 is a handful of independent produced events, the World Tag League and a Korakuen Hall doubleheader to wrap up 2026, then it’s Tokyo Dome.

As for the Super Junior Tag League, it was announced that 12 teams will participate this year in a 2-block round-robin format, with the winners of both blocks advancing to the Finals. Tiebreaker if needed will be head-to-head result. The entered teams:
Block A: El Desperado & Mistico (current IWGP Jubior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions), Ryusuke Taguchi & Kazuma Sumi (DDT), Master Wato & KUUKAI, KUSHIDA & Nick Wayne (All Elite Wrestling), Taiji Ishimori & Robbie X, DOUKI & Yoshinobu Kanemaru (DOUKI was half of last year’s winners)
Block B: Yoh & Hyo (Dragon Gate), Titan & Daiki Nagai, Robbie Eagles & Kosei Fujita, Francesco Akira & Jacob Austin Young, Blake Christian & Lee Johnson (AEW), Sho & Dick Togo

The tournament runs from 10/24-11/3. The winners, unless it’s Desperado & Mistico, will get an IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship shot, likely at Tokyo Dome. And based on the blocks, anything but the champs winning Block A will be a big upset while Block B looks like it’s between Eagles/Fujita-the 2024 winners-and Akira/Young.

UPDATE: Due to Sumi’s participation in the tournament, DDT has announced he will miss all DDT events from 10/24-11/3. Unfortunately that means he will be off Ultimate Party 2026, the promotion’s upcoming annual fall blowout event, on 11/3 at Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo. The only other event he will miss is 10/24 at Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama, but he had not yet been announced for the event so no card changes should be needed. Sumi also was not yet in a match for 11/3.

Dragon Gate News: Vacant Championship Update

Dragon Gate has posted an update on the Open The Brave Gate Championship, which was held up last month after Ryu Fuda beat Dragon Kid to win the title but the title change was not recognized due to ISHIN interference. Kid has been named Interim Champion and a tournament will be held to crown a new champion. It’ll be a single-elimination bracket event with qualifying wrestlers from each faction, meaning weighing 82 kg or less, and that means first on 10/18 (doubleheader at Acros Fukuoka) will be matches of Homare vs. KAGETORA and JACKY KAMEI vs. GuC. The winners will meet on 10/24 at Kyoto KBS Hall and that winner will face Kid on 11/5 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo for the title. You’re maybe thinking what I’m thinking-no Ryoya Tanaka? I guess his new faction wasn’t considered.

All tournament events and matches will be available live & on demand on DRAGONGATE NETWORK.
