Pro Wrestling NOAH wrapped up the N-1 VICTORY 2026 today with the Finals.

Today’s event was held at Yoyogi National Stadium Gym 2 in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in Japanese & English. Harutoki, who is out long-term due to injury, was a special guest on English commentary.

The announced paid attendance was 2077. Based on the setup I estimate they used the venue at about 85% capacity, particularly with upper level arena seating.

Pre-show match: Atsushi Kotoge & Yuto Koyanagi beat Black Menso-re & Hiroya Namiki. Kotoge pinned Namiki after a bat hanging drop.

Match 1: Kazuyuki Fujita & Titus Alexander beat Yoshiki Inamura & Chen. Alexander pinned Chen after Big Ugly.

Main Event: N-1 VICTORY Finals: OZAWA beat Kaito Kiyomiya to win the tournament. As a result, OZAWA will face GHC Heavyweight Champion Tetsuya Naito for the title on 10/25 at Ryogoku Kokugikan. Looks like after being down for a bit, Team 2000X is about to be back on top of NOAH, much to the dismay of fans.

The next event is 10/11 at Chres Kochi in Kochi. There will be no live broadcast. On demand Monday/early Tuesday.

In initial news/fallout, there will be a post-event press conference streaming live FOR FREE on YouTube TONIGHT at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.

He plans to do 2 retirement matches. More as it becomes available.
Also backstage, Kondo challenged HAYATA for the GHC 200 Championship. More as it becomes available.

Pro Wrestling NOAH continued the N-1 VICTORY 2026 today with the penultimate day of Block B.

Today’s event was held at Hachinohe U-Tree 1st Floor Multipurpose Hall in Aomori and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

The announced paid attendance was 519.

Match 1: Kaito Kiyomiya, Yoshiki Inamura, Kazuyuki Fujita & Yuto Koyanagi beat Shane Haste, HAYATA, Chen & Hiroya Namiki. Koyanagi pinned Namiki.

Match 2: Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI & RYUSEI beat Naomichi Marufuji, Yuki Iino & Hiroto Tsuruya. Naito pinned Tsuruya after Pluma Blanca.

N-1 VICTORY Block B:
Match 3: KENTA beat Titus Alexander by submission.
Match 4: Kenoh beat Manabu Soya.

Match 5: Alejandro, Dragon Bane & Daiki Odashima beat Kai Fujimura, Tadasuke & YO-HEY. Bane pinned YO-HEY.

N-1 VICTORY Block B:
Match 6: OZAWA beat Msas Kitamiya.
Main Event: Tetsuya Endo beat Kouga.

Standings (Block B(:
1-Kenoh, 4-2, 8 pts
2-Endo, 4-2, 8 pts
3-OZAWA, 4-2, 8 pts
4-Kitamiya, 3-3, 6 pts (OUT)
5-Alexander, 3-3, 6 pts (OUT)
6-KENTA, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
7-Kouga, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
8-Soya, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
The winner advances to the Finals. 5 still have a chance but it realistically is down to 3 and tiebreakers. Here’s what we know for the final matches: Endo-OZAWA means the winner has a chance to advance-if it’s Endo, he advances. OZAWA needs to win AND Kitamiya must beat Kenoh due to tiebreakers. Kenoh must win AND Endo must lose because KENOH beat OZAWA but lost to Endo. Kitamiya is OUT because he lost to OZAWA. Alexander is OUT because he only beat Kenoh. So Endo has the advantage on paper.

The next event is tomorrow at Light Cube Utsunomiya in Tochigi with the final day of both blocks. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 1 AM PT/4 AM ET.

Pro Wrestling NOAH continued the N-1 VICTORY 2026 today with Block A.

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

Match 4: Yuki Iino beat Kaito Kiyomiya.

Match 5: Kai Fujimura, YO-HEY & Jun Masaoka beat Alejandro, Dragon Bane & Daiki Odashima. YO-HEY pinned Odashima after HEART BREAKER.

N-1 VICTORY Block A:
Match 6: Kazuyuki Fujita beat Yoshiki Inamura by ref stoppage (technical submission).
Main Event: Shane Haste beat Takashi Sugiura.

Standings (Block A):
1-Kiyomiya, 4-1-1, 9 pts

6-Fujita, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
7-Chen, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
8-Iino, 1-5, 2 pts (OUT)
The winner advances to the Finals. It’s now down to 4. Kiyomiya is still in control and will win the block with a win or draw against Chen. If it’s a draw, Kiyomiya has tiebreakers over Wolf & Haste so their only hope is a win and Kiyomiya loss. Inamura must beat Sugiura AND Wolf, Haste & Kiyomiya all must lose-if that happens Inamura & Koyomiya would need a tiebreaker match because their match was a draw. Inamura has tiebreaker over Haste but not Wolf.

The next event is tomorrow at Hachinohe U-Tree 1st Floor Multipurpose Hall in Aomori with Block B. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin TONIGHT at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.

The next event is Friday at Sendai Pit in Sendai with Block A. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET.

Pro Wrestling NOAH continued the N-1 VICTORY 2026 today in Shizuoka.

Today’s event was held at Act City Hamamatsu in Shizuoka and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

Match 1: OZAWA, Masa Kitamiya & Tadasuke beat KENTA, HAYATA & Tetsuya Endo. Kitamiya pinned HAYATA after Saito Suplex.

Match 2: Kouga & Huto Koyanagi beat Manabu Soya & Hiroya Namiki. Koyanagi pinned Namiki.

Match 3: Naomichi Marufuji, Mohammed Yone & Katsumi Inahata beat Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI & RYUSEI. Matufuji pinned RYUSEI.

N-1 VICTORY Block A:

Match 5: Yoshiki Inamura beat Chen.

Match 6: Kai Fujimura, YO-HEY & Jun Masaoka beat Alejandro, Dragon Bane & Daiki Odashima. Fujimura pinned Alejandro after Death Hanger.

N-1 VICTORY Block A:
Match 7: Shane Haste beat Yuki Iino.
Main Event: Kaito Kiyomiya beat Kazuyuki Fujita.

6-Chen, 2-3, 4 pts (OUT)
7-Fujita, 1-4, 2 pts (OUT)
8-Iino, 0-5, 0 pts (OUT)
The winner advances to the Finals. It’s now down to 5 but it’s all but Kiyomiya’s to lose. Keep in mind, however, that Kiyomiya-Inamura was a draw so if they tie, it probably means a rematch. Kiyomiya still has Iino & Chen and must be careful to avoid an upset. Inamura has Fujita & Sugiura. Today’s result also means, if Team 2000X tie for the top spot, Sugiura gets it over Wolf. They both also still have Haste to come.

The next event is tomorrow at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo with Block B. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 2:30 AM PT/5:30 AM ET.

Injury Report: As noted earlier, Inahata was injured during today’s event. Dislocated shoulder. Out tomorrow. Status uncertain beyond that.

Pro Wrestling NOAH has announced an injury absence as it appears rookie Katsumi Inahata was recently injured. Dislocated shoulder. Out tomorrow and maybe longer. Corresponding card changes have been made. It’s not yet known if Inahata will be out past tomorrow.

More as it becomes available.

Pro Wrestling NOAH continued the N-1 VICTORY 2026 today in Tokushima with Block B.

Today’s event was held at Tokushima Municipal Gym in Tokushima and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE.

6-Soya, 2-2, 4 pts
7-Kouga, 1-3, 2 pts
8-KENTA, 0-4, 0 pts (OUT)
The winner advances to the Finals. KENTA can only force tiebreakers to advance but I marked him out because he does lose tiebreaker to OZAWA. He hasn’t faced Endo & Kitamiya yet.

The next event is tomorrow at Act City Hamamatsu in Shizuoka with Block A. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin at 2 AM PT/5 AM ET.

Pro Wrestling NOAH continues the N-1 VICTORY 2026 Tournament today with a morning matinee in Osaka. Today marks the halfway point of the tournament and will feature only Block A matches, with Day 4 of the block. With only one spot advancing nobody can clinch today but, if things don’t go his way, Yuki Iino could become the first elimination of the tournament. The highlight match is between former GHC Heavyweight Champions as Yoshiki Inamura faces Shane Haste.

Today’s event will be held at Umeda Stellar Hall in Osaka and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. The event is a legit advance sellout. There will be no commentary. There is also a pre-show match scheduled, which will now be part of the live stream. There are 8 matches total, so including the pre-show match I anticipate the event’s running time being around 2 1/2 hours.

Today’s lineup (match order TBA except for pre-show match):
Pre-show:
Manabu Soya, Yuto Koyanagi & Hiroto Tsuruya vs. Tetsuya Endo, HAYATA & Katsumi Inahata

N-1 VICTORY Block B:
Match 7: OZAWA beat KENTA.
Main Event: Masa Kitamiya beat Manabu Soya.

Standings (Block B):
1-Kitamiya, 3-0, 6 pts
2-Alexander, 2-1, 4 pts
3-Endo, 2-1, 4 pts
4-OZAWA, 2-1, 4 pts
5-Soya, 2-1, 4 pts
6-Kenoh, 1-2, 2 pts
7-KENTA, 0-3, 0 pts
8-Kouga, 0-3, 0 pts
The winner advances to the Finals. The big surprises are at the bottom-did not expect KENTA to be 0-3 and almost out of it now, but also surprised by Kouga 0-3. It’s looking like Team 2000X’s to lose but still a ways to go and there is still a Kitamiya-OZAWA match at the end.

Day 6 is Sunday at Umeda Stellar Hall in Osaka with Block A. The event is now a legit advance sellout. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin Friday at 8 PM PT/11 PM ET, but could be a little earlier due to a pre-show match being listed. Right now it’s uncertain based on the UNIVERSE schedule.
