Pro Wrestling NOAH 2/2/25 LIVE Results

Pro Wrestling NOAH continues the SUNNY VOYAGE 2025 Tour today with an event in Tokyo. While it’s mainly a house show the big attraction is a massive autograph session held for fans with most if not all the roster that is available participating. I expect the main event to be a tag match that will continue the build to the upcoming GHC Heavyweight Championship match between OZAWA & Galeno.

There have been late changes made to the card because Ulka Sasaki is now off. The always vague poor health. He was to have been in a 6-man tag match, which was changed to a tag match and Shuji Kondo was moved to another match, changing it from a single match to a 3-way.

Today’s event will be held at Tama Mirai Messe in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will be no commentary. There are only 6 matches and the main event may be the only one with more than a 30 minute time limit, but despite that I anticipate it having a running time of only about 2 hours.

Additionally, as of earlier today the full NOAH THE NEW YEAR event from 1/1, which originally was only available as a PPV on ABEMA in select countries, is now available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE for all monthly paying subscribers with no further paywalls in Japanese and English.

Today’s lineup:
Manabu Soya vs. Owadasan
Tadasuke vs. Shuji Kondo & Black Menso-re in a 3-way
Takashi Sugiura & Kazuyuki Fujita vs. Mohammed Yone & Masa Kitamiya
Kaito Kiyomiya, Kenoh & Kai Fujimura vs. Naomichi Marufuji, Shuhei Taniguchi & Zozaya
HAYATA, YO-HEY, Eita & Daiki Odashima vs. Atsushi Kotoge, Hajime Ohara, AMAKUSA & Junta Miyawaki
OZAWA & Tetsuya Endo vs. Galeno & Alejandro

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 10 PM PT/1 AM ET. The livestream is scheduled to begin 15 minutes before the event.

9:55 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Tama Mirai Messe in Tokyo, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The venue has a maximum capacity for wrestling of about 900 I believe, they’re probably using much smaller today and I can’t see much from hard camera but what I see is largely full. I’ll predict it’ll be near 400. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 524)

The matches will begin in a few minutes.

The matches begin right on schedule at 10 PM PT/1 AM ET. Looks like hard camera-only views today.

Match 1: Manabu Soya vs. Owadasan. 15 minute time limit
Result: Manabu Soya beat Owadasan by submission

Match 2: Tadasuke vs. Shuji Kondo & Black Menso-re (Independent/Freelancer) in a 3-way. 20 minute time limit

Intermission.

The matches resume at 10:50 PM PT/1:50 AM ET (about a 10 minute break).

Result: Kaito Kiyomiya, Kenoh & Kai Fujimura beat Naomichi Marufuji, Shuhei Taniguchi & Zozaya. Kenoh pinned Taniguchi after PFS.

Match 5: HAYATA, YO-HEY, Eita & Daiki Odashima vs. Atsushi Kotoge, Hajime Ohara, AMAKUSA & Junta Miyawaki. 30 minute time limit
Result: Atsushi Kotoge, Hasjime Ohara, AMAKUSA & Junta Miyawaki beat HAYATA, YO-HEY, Eita & Daiki Odashima. AMAKUSA pinned Odashima after Opening Of The Country.

Main Event: OZAWA & Tetsuya Endo (with Yoshitatsu) vs. Galeno & Alejandro. 1 Hour time limit
Result: OZAWA & Tetsuya Endo beat Galeno & Alejandro. OZAWA pinned Alejandro after Big Ben Edge. Afterwards, OZAWA unmasked Galeno as part of a heel beatfown until Kiyomiya & Kenoh made the save and covered up Galeno’s face. We never saw his face. This match also showed that, for those who didn’t know, Yoshitatsu is about the only person in NOAH that gets booed despite Team 2000X all being heels.

A neat & tidy event over in just under 2 hours even with the intermission even if the ending doesn’t send the crowd home happy, and it didn’t.

The next event is Saturday at Shinjuku Face. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 1:30 AM PT/4:30 AM ET. Also, although it does not say this on NOAH’s website, the 2/11 Korakuen Hall event, listed as only an ABEMA live broadcast, will also be available live outside Japan on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in English only.

News: 2025 Hana Kimura Memorial Event Announced

It has been announced on social media that this year’s Hana Kimura Memorial Event, celebrating the young wrestler & daughter of longtime wrestler Kyoko Kimura, will be held on 5/23 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo. Tickets will go on sale next week but those who become sponsors can take advantage of a pre-sale and choose seats.

Hana Kimura was a young rising star in Stardom and elsewhere who was the creator and leader of the Oedo Tai faction in Stardom (now H.A.T.E.) and also made appearances in the US (notably in the former iteration of Ring Of Honor). The event date marks the anniversary of the day she took her own life in 2020 after cyberbullying following her appearance on a Japan-only Netflix series. She was only 22 at the time of her death, which months later was ruled a suicide. Kyoko Kimura continues to fight for stronger criminal penalties in Japan for such incidents of bullying that lead to suicides or deaths, which led to a new law in 2022 carrying up to a year in jail and a 300,000 yen (around $2000 US) fine. This memorial event, held every year since, brings wrestlers from throughout Japan together to celebrate Hana’s life and too-short career and also is a fundraiser for Kyoko Kimura to help cover legal expenses and continuing Hana’s legacy through a non-profit organization.

Broadcast plans TBA but if the trend since the beginning continues, fans outside Japan should be able to watch the event as a PPV live & on demand on Triller/FITE.
