Dragon Gate continues the Open The New Year Gate 2026 Tour today with their first visit to Tokyo this year, unusual because it’s both a weekend event and a morning matinee for their monthly mid-major event. The event is highlighted by an All-Asia Tag Team Championship match as ISHIN & Yoshiki Kato, having won the titles recently in All-Japan Pro Wrestling, will defend them today against Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii, with the match being under PWF (All-Japan) rules and All-Japan referee Krohei Wada being the referee. In the main event, BIGBOSS Shimizu faces Kzy after Shimizu, recently returned from a nearly-year-long absence for potential disciplinary reasons, betrayed Natural Vibes right after his return and it’s built up to this showdown today.
Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on DRAGONGATE NETWORK in Japanese & English. You can also watch the first match FOR FREE on YouTube. As is usually the case here, there are 7 matches on the card and I would anticipate the running time to be a little longer than a normal Korakuen event, probably close to 3 hours (including a probable intermission in the second half).
Today’s lineup:
Ryoya Tanaka & Marcus Mathers vs. Strong Machine J & U-T
Ultimo Dragon, Daiki Yanagiuchi, Akihiro Sahara & Kazuma Kimura vs. Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi, Problem Dragon & Punch Tominaga
