All-Japan wrapped up the Dream Power Series 2024 today with a blowout event in Tokyo.
Today’s event was held at Ota City General Gym in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on AJPW.TV. The postponed service maintenance from earlier this month was completed earlier this week so if you were a subscriber prior to Monday and haven’t been on since, you will need to reset your password next time you use the service.
The announced paid attendance was 2057.
There was an Actress Girls segment before the event began.
Match 1: Kaz Hayashi (GLEAT), Seiki Toshioka & Fuminori Abe beat Naruki Doi, Seigo Tachibana & Ryo Inoue. Hayashi pinned Inoue after Final Cut.
Match 2: Takao Omori (Independent/Freelancer) & Kumaarashi beat KONO & Toshizo. Omori pinned Toshizo after Ax Bomber. This was to have been Omori & Osamu Nishimura vs. KONO & Toshizo but NIshimura was removed earlier this week due to illness.
Match 3: Kento Miyahara won an 8 man battle royal, last eliminating Ren Ayabe. This originally was to have been an 8-man tag match but based on results of online fan voting between that and a battle royal as the match type, it became a battle royal.
Match 4: In an Electric Blast Death Match, Hikaru Sato & Dan Tamura beat All-Asia Tag Team Champions Atsushi Onita & To-y (DDT) to win the titles. Sato & Tamura become the 123rd All-Asia Tag Team Champions. Tamura pinned To-y after an electric blasting bat attack. Mission accomplished for the All-Japan brass who were desperate to get the titles away from Onita and do away with his death matches for title defenses at all costs.
Match 5: All-Japan World Junior Heavyweight Champion Rising Hayato beat MUSASHI (Michinoku Pro) to retain the title. V1 for Hayato.
Match 6: Jun & Rei Saito beat All-Japan World Tag Team Champions Suwama & Hideki Suzuki to win the titles. The Saitos become the 99th All-Japan World Tag Team Champions. Jun Saito pinned Suwama after Psycho Break. Picking up right where they left off after they had to vacate the titles due to a Rei Saito injury.
Main Event: Yuma Anzai beat All-Japan Triple Crown Champion Katsuhiko Nakajima to win the Triple Crown. Anzai become the 72nd All-Japan Triple Crown Champion. And the youngest ever at 24 years, 10 months. UPSET ALERT!!! Next up: The Champions Carnival, which Anzai is part of, so likely whoever wins the tournament or, if Anzai wins, probably his choice.
The next event is NEW AGE CHRONICLE Z 4, the 4th Rising Hayato Produced event for younger wrestlers and those with less than 10 years experience, on 4/11 at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring. Live streaming on AJPW.TV will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.
