UPDATE: Several news items coming out of the event:

There are late changes to Thursday’s event due to Kengo Mashino & Yuya Aoki emergency participation. A planned match of Hideki Suzuki & Shota Kofuji vs. Go Shiozaki & Yaustaka Yano is now Suzuki, Kofuji & Mashimo vs. Shiozaki, Yano & Aoki.

Xyon participation in an international rugby exhibition match was also announced for Saturday, he will play for his native Australia national team. Xyon was a rugby player before becoming a pro wrestler. He probably will not miss any events as a result as after Thursday the next event is 10/22.

The next All-Asia Tag Team Championship match, with MUSASHI & Yoshioka defending the titles against Suzuki & Kofuji, will happen on 10/29 at Yotsuba Arena Tokachi Sub Arena in Hokkaido.

All-Japan Pro Wrestling 10/11/2026 LIVE Results

All-Japan continues the Anniversary Series today in Sendai. Today is a borderline major event with 3 title matches scheduled: First up is a GAORA TV Championship match as Masaaki Mochizuki returns from Dragon Gate to defend the title against Yasutaku Yano. Second is a match for the vacant All-Asia Tag Team Championship between Dan Tamiura & Seigo Tachibana and MUSASHI & Seiki Yoshioka. Finally, in the main event, Jun & Rei Saito defend the All-Japan World Tag Team Championship against the Yumas-Yuma Aoyagi & Yuma Anzai. Saitos & Yumas, sounds like fun.

Today’s event will be held at Sendai Sun Plaza in Sendai and can be watched LIVE on AJPW.TV in Japanese. This will also be a taped GAORA SPORTS broadcast in Japan on 10/21. There are 7 matches planned with an intermission and while the later TV broadcast suggests the event could go as long as 4 hours, I anticipate the running time being closer to 3 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Shota Kofuji vs. Kumaarashi
Rising Hayato & Hokuto Omori vs. Aizawa No. 1 & Makoto Oishi
Suwama, Go Shiozaki & Masayuki Kono vs. Xyon, Odyssey & Shotaro Ashino

Injury Report: The Rare Non-Wrestler Edition

We usually don’t get injury/illness updates on non-wrestlers but this is the rare exception: All-Japan has announced ring announcer Yuji Shindo is temporarily unable to perform his duties. Vocal cord leukoplateia (yeah, what?). Out at least 2 weeks. He will miss at least 4 events starting tomorrow through 10/15, That means hopefully he will be back for the tour-ender on 10/22 at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo.

Shinjuku Face Final Event Results (9/30/2026)

The sad end of an era has finally come as iconic Tokyo venue Shinjuku Face has now closed after 21 1/2 years following its final event today, a CyberFight produced event with participation from several promotions, independent and major.

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

The paid attendance has not been announced but it’s safe to assume it was a legit sellout of 500.

Match 1: Masami Inahata (DDT) & Shota Kofuji (All-Japan) beat Illusion (DDT) & Homare (Dragon Gate). Inahata pinned Illusion after a double-arm suplex.

Match 2: Brahman Kei won a 22 person battle royal, last eliminating Shuji Kondo. Entrants were not announced in advance. Elimination by pinfall, submission or over top rope. Order of elimination: Sanshiro Takagi, Ken Ohka, Cohaku, Minoru Suzuki, Shinsuke Nakamura (WWE-yes, THE Shinsuke Namaura!), Yumi (Yumi Ohka), Yumehito Imanari, Isami Kodaka, ?, Makoto Oishi, Toru Owashi, ? & ? (team), Brahman Shu, Dick Togo, Sakura Hirota, Antonio Honda, Suwama, Kazuki Hirata, Syuri, Shuji Kondo.

Afterwards…
Yuka Ogawa beat DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion Sanshiro Takagi to win the title. Ogawa becomes the 1913th Champion.

Match 3: MAO, Yuki Ueno & Chris Brookes (DDT) beat Dragon Kid (Dragon Gate), Yuma Aoyagi (All-Japan) & Kuroshio TOKYO Japan (Independent/Freelancer). MAO pinned Japan after a 450 splash.

Main Event: Aja Kong (OZ Academy) & Chihiro Hashimoto (Sendai Girls) beat Mayumi Ozaki (OZ Academy) & Sareee (Independent/Freelancer). Kong & Hashimoto won by letting Yuka Ogawa pin Ozaki. This was a comedy brawl everywhere with everyone getting involved. Afterwards, everyone gathered in the ring for the final send-off to the venue, with one final symbolic gesture…

Yuka Ogawa awarded the DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Championship to Shinjuku Face. Shinjuku Face becomes the 1914th Champion. The title belt was left in the ring attached to the ropes. Due to the venue now being closed, DDT announced the title is now VACANT. But a fitting end nonetheless.

MANY THANKS FACE…
