New Japan 12/3/23 Results

New Japan ran Day 11 of the World Tag League today, the penultimate day of Block A.

The announced paid attendance was 984.

World Tag League:

Match 7: Gabriel Kidd & Alex Coughlin beat Yujiro Takahashi & EVIL. Kidd pinned Takahashi after a hijack piledriver.
Main Event: Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls beat Ren Narita & Shota Umino. Haste pinned Umino after Tank Buster.

Standings (Block A):
1-Haste/Nicholls, 5-2, 10 pts
2-Coughlin/Kidd, 4-3, 8 pts
3-Yano/Ishii, 4-3, 8 pts
4-Narita/Umino, 3-4, 6 pts (OUT)
5-HENARE/Khan, 3-4, 6 pts (OUT)
6-Oiwa/Kiyomiya, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
7-Takahashi/EVIL, 2-4, 4 pts (OUT)
8-Liona/Kaun, 1-5, 2 pts (OUT)
The top 2 advance to the Semifinals. With tiebreakers it’s down to 3. And it’s actually simple: The Haste/Nicholls-Coughlin/Kidd winner on the final day advances. If it’s a time limit draw, Haste/Nicholls advance. Yano/Ishii must win their last match (HENARE/Khan) unless Haste/Nicholls win, then a draw gets them through. If Coughlin/Kidd draw and earn 1 point, they must have Yano/Ishii lose or draw. If there are ties, here is what happens: If it’s a 3-way, Haste/Nicholls are OUT. If Yano/Ishii & Coughlin/Kidd tie for 2nd, Yano/Ishii are OUT. If 2 teams tie for 1st, if it’s Haste/Nicholls and Ishii/Yano it goes to Ishii/Yano. If it’s Haste/Nicholls and Coughlin/Kidd it will go to Coughlin/Kidd with the last day win.

The next event is tomorrow at Kochi Prefectural Gym in Kochi with the penultimate day of Block B. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 2 AM PT/5 AM ET.

DDT Pro Wrestling 12/3/23 Results

DDT continues the D KING GP 2023 today with the second half of a weekend doubleheader in Tokyo. There are 4 tournament matches scheduled today, two in each of the 2 blocks. Block A has Tetsuya Endo vs. Yuki Iino and Yuki Ueno vs. Daisuke Sasaki. Block B has Yukio Naya vs. Kazuki Hirata and, in the main event, Chris Brookes vs. MAO. Based on the standings so far, if Naya wins and he should, he will be firmly in control of Block B at his halfway point at 3-0. Block A has almost everyone at 1 win after 1 or 2 matches so today could help determine favorites to move on to the eventual finals.

Today’s event will be held at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE. There will probably be no commentary. With just 6 matches on tap and no intermission it’ll go 3 hours tops, but realistically I’m estimating the running time being closer to 2 1/4 hours. Probably depends on the main event, which I can see going the full 30 minutes.

Today’s lineup (in order):
MIKAMI & Kazuma Sumi vs. Demus & KANON
Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Yusuke Okada & Rukiya vs. HARASHIMA, Akito, Toi Kojima & Takeshi Masada
D KING GP:
Block B: Yukio Naya vs. Kazuki Hirata
Block A: Tetsuya Endo vs. Yuki Iino
Block A: Yuki Ueno vs. Daisuke Sasaki
Block B: Chris Brookes vs. MAO

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 7 PM PT/10 PM ET.

6:30 PM PT UPDATE: The stream launch, normally 30 minutes before the event begins, has been pushed back to 6:45 PM PT/9:45 PM ET. Unless there’s a last-second change, no pre-show matches planned.

7 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now…

We are LIVE from Shinjuku Face in Tokyo, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. Advance sales were good so it looks to be probably around yesterday which did 334. It looks at first like it’ll be 325-350. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 266)

Match 1: MIKAMI & Kazuma Sumi vs. Demus & KANON. 30 minute time limit
Result: Demus & KANON beat MIKAMI & Kazuma Sumi. Demus pinned Sumi after a spinning neckbreaker bomb.

Match 2: Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Yusuke Okada & Rukiya vs. HARASHIMA, Akito, Toi Kojima & Takeshi Masada. 30 minute time limit
Result: HARASHIMA, Akito, Toi Kojima & Takeshi Masada beat Jun Akiyama, Makoto Oishi, Yusuke Okada & Rukiya. Masada pinned Rukiya.

Quick break for the usual opening announcements from GM Imabayashi. The end of this brings out MAO with microphone. Comments in Japanese. He then called out Chris Beookes, his opponent in the main event. Brookes came out. It sounded like MAO wanted to change today’s match to also be for the DDT Universal Championship. Imabayashi makes it official. Main Event now for the title.

Match 3: D KING GP Block B: Yukio Naya vs. Kazuki Hirata. 30 minute time limit
Result: Yukio Naya beat Kazuki Hirata. Comedy match and, as usual with Hirata, a really funny one.

Match 4: D KING GP Block A: Tetsuya Endo vs. Yuki Iino (remember he’s no longer Sexy!). 30 minute time limit
Result: Tetsuya Endo beat Yuki Iino

Match 5: D KING GP Block A: Yuki Ueno vs. Daisuke Sasaki. 30 minute time limit
Result: Time Limit Draw. Largely because of MJ Paul interference and heel tactics by Sasaki including blatantly taking out the ref late.

Main Event: D KING GP Block B: DDT Universal Champion MAO vs. Chris Brookes for the title. 30 minute time limit (not 1 Hour because it’s a tournament match)
Result: DDT Universal Champion MAO beat Chris Brookes by countout to retain the title. V2 for MAO. Apparently they had the match in a way that they were trying to both win by countout.

The next event is 12/9 at Osaka Azalea Taisho in Osaka. There will be no live broadcast.

DDT 12/2/23 Results

DDT continued the D KING GP 2023 today with the first half of a weekend doubleheader in Tokyo.

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

The announced paid attendance was 334, a full house/near sellout.

Match 6: D KING GP Block B: Yukio Naya beat Rei Saito (All-Japan).

Main Event: D KING GP Block A: HARASHIMA beat Tetsuya Endo. HARARSHIMA concluded the event with his post-match now-signature victory promo: Because I’m Training!

New Japan 12/2/23 Results

New Japan ran Day 10 of the World Tag League today, with Day 5 of Block B.

Today’s event was held at Osaka Prefectural Gym 2 in Osaka and can be watched on demand on New Japan World.

The announced paid attendance was 952, a legit sellout.

Pre-show Match: DOUKI beat Shoma Kato.

Match 1: Toru Yano & Tomohiro Ishii beat Oskar Leube & Yuto Nakashima. Ishii pinned Nakashima after a sliding lariat.

Match 2: Boltin Oleg, Toa Liona & Bishop Kaun beat Callum Newman, HENARE & Great-O-Khan. Kaun pinned Newman after Fall From Heaven.

Match 3: Yoshinobu Kanemaru, Sho, Yujiro Takahashi & EVIL beat Gedo, Taiji Ishimori, Gabriel Kidd & Alex Coughlin. Sho pinned Gedo.

Main Event: YOSHI-HASHI & Hirooki Goto beat Zandokan Jr. & Yota Tsuji. YOSHI-HASHI pinned Zandokan after Shoto.

Despite their post-match proclamation of breaking the champions’ jinx and 3-peating, Bishamon’s chances are still on life support after today. The top 2 advance to the Semifinals and they are 3 points out of 2nd with just 2 matches left. But they’ve got Nagata/Suzuki who are out and finally got a win today and Uemura/Taichi left and the latter may very well be for a top 2 spot after Archer/Zayne took their first loss today. Fale/Bonza are now OUT and Tsuji/Zandokan are on life support with their only hope being an absolute must-win coming against Archer/Zayne to have any tiebreaker hopes.

The next event is tomorrow at Arcrea Hiimeji in Hyogo with Day 6 (the penultimate day) of Block A. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at midnight PT/3 AM ET.

For the week ahead, the Tag League Semifinals (top 2 in each block) will be Friday in Kagoshima and the Finals will be 12/10 in Kumamoto (for those on the US west coast, this is a Saturday night start on 12/9).

Pro Wrestling NOAH 12/2/23 Results

Pro Wrestling NOAH ran their first major event of the month, NOAH THE BEST, today as the promotion builds to a big end of the year and start of 2024.

Today’s event was held at Yokohama Budokan in Yokohama and can be watched on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE in Japanese and English. The live broadcast was English only due to the usual ABEMA exclusives in Japan. You can also watch the first 3 matches FOR FREE on YouTube.

The announced paid attendance was 1156.

Major post-event news/fallout:
After the event, in backstage comments Kitamiya demanded a match against New Japan ironman Tomohiro Ishii. HOSS FIGHT ALERT!!! Please let that happen soon!
The 1/2 main event was set by a surprise appearance by Kota Ibushi, who recently signed with All Elite Wrestling (but it’s a limited deal of sorts and Ibushi won’t be full-time in AEW, he’ll have a lot of freedom to continue working in Japan as he pleases, which was very important to him). It will be Ibushi vs. Marufuji at Ariake Arena in Tokyo.

The next event is 12/10 at Kira Messe Numazu in Shizuoka. There will be no live broadcast.

All-Japan Pro Wrestling 12/2/23 Results

All-Japan continues the Real World Tag League today as that tournament and the Jr. Battle Of Glory head down the home stretch. The Jr. Battle gets the real spotlight as they are the main event but there are 4 Tag League matches as Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori try to potentially secure a Finals spot via a top 2 finish. For the Jr. Battle, it’s wide open but Fuminori Abe has the top spot to lose right now although everyone is separated by just 2 points.

The promotion has also announced Rei Saito is off this event. DDT participation today in Tokyo. DDT also announced Jun Saito participation for their 1/3/24 event so the crossover between the promotions will continue for now, which has mostly involved the Saito Bros and Hideki Okatani & Yukio Sakaguchi (and Saki Akai before she retired). Also both promotions have been battling over the All-Asia Tag Team Championship that usually is contested for in All-Japan

Today’s event will be held at Item Ehime in Ehime and can be watched LIVE on AJPW.TV. It’s not yet known if there will be any commentary. Because Jr. Battle Of Glory matches have only a 10 minute time limit the event won’t run long, if every match went the distance it would go 3 hours tops if there is no intermission, so I anticipate it will wind up going just over 2 hours.

Today’s lineup (in order):
Jr. Battle Of Glory: Ryo Inoue vs. Koji Iwamoto
Jr. Battle Of Glory: Hikaru Sato vs. Fuminori Abe
Atsuki Aoyagi & Imabari Towel Mascaras vs. Jun Saito & KOSHI
Suwama & Dan Tamura vs. Black Menso-re & Carbell Ito
Real World Tag League:
Shuji Ishikawa & Ren Ayabe vs. Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Seigo Tachibana
Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori vs. Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani
Ryuki Honda & Yuma Anzai vs. Hayato Tamura & Galeno Del Mal
Kento Miyahara & Yuma Aoyagi vs. Cyrus & Ryan Danielson
Jr. Battle Of Glory: Rising Hayato vs. Naruki Doi

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 9 PM PT/midnight ET.

9 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now…

We are LIVE from Item Ehime in Ehime, Japan. There is no commentary. Just hard-camera view today.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. It’s a small venue and looks set up for maybe 500 tops but isn’t a sellout. Looks like it’ll maybe be around 300. (Update: The announced paid attendance was 520)

The matches begin almost right away, when we joined they were doing the match card rundown. (Note: Quite a bit of muting in entrances and post-match because of audio/music rights for non-All-Japan wrestlers, or at least because they’re outside of Tokyo? Jun Saito’s music was muted and it never is at Korakuen Hall or other Tokyo venues. Actually they wound up muting just about everyone’s music except the regular All-Japan guys who use original themes and not licensed songs)

Match 1: Jr. Battle Of Glory: Ryo Inoue vs. Koji Iwamoto. 10 minute time limit
Result: Koji Iwamoto beat Ryo Inoue

Match 2: Jr. Battle Of Glory: Hikaru Sato vs. Fuminori Abe. 10 minute time limit
Result: Hikaru Sato beat Fuminori Abe by submission

Match 3: Atsuki Aoyagi & Imabari Towel Mascaras vs. Jun Saito & KOSHI. 15 minute time limit
Result: Jun Saito & KOSHI beat Atsuko Aoyagi & Imabari Towel Mascaras. Saito pinned Mascaras.

Match 4: Suwama & Dan Tamura vs. Black Menso-re & Carbell Ito. 15 minute time limit. Before the match (and before Suwama/Tamura entered), Ito & Menso-re were given goody bags and threw them into the crowd as Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” played.
Result: Suwama & Dan Tamura beat Black Menso-re & Carbell Ito. Tamura pinned Menso-re.

Match 5: Real World Tag League: Shuji Ishikawa & Ren Ayabe vs. Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Seigo Tachibana. 30 minute time limit
Result: Kuroshio TOKYO Japan & Seigo Tachibana beat Shuji Ishikawa & Ren Ayabe. Kuroshio pinned Ayabe.

Match 6: Real World Tag League: Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori vs. Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani. 30 minute time limit
Result: Yukio Sakaguchi & Hideki Okatani beat Katsuhiko Nakajima & Hokuto Omori. Sakaguchi pinned Omori.

Match 7: Ryuki Honda & Yuma Anzai vs. Hayato Tamura & Galeno Del Mal. 30 minute time limit
Result: Ryuki Honda & Yuma Anzai beat Hayato Tamura & Galeno Del Mal. Honda pinned Del Mal.

Match 8: Kento Miyahara & Yuma Aoyagi vs. Cyrus & Ryan Danielson. 30 minute time limit
Result: Cyrus & Ryan Danielson beat Kento Miyahara & Yuma Anzai. Cyrus pinned Miyahara.

Main Event: Jr. Battle Of Glory: Rising Hayato vs. Naruki Doi. 10 minute time limit
Result: Rising Hayato beat Naruki Doi. Just beat the time limit

This event wound up going almost 3 hours, but the amount of muted audio made for ridiculously bad presentation. Not used to this from All-Japan but I also usually can only watch weekend Korakuen Hall events live too.

The next event is Sunday at Osaka Prefectural Gym 2 in Osaka. Live streaming on AJPW.TV will begin at midnight PT/3 AM ET. They also announced earlier today that all December events will be broadcast live.

Injury Report: All-Japan Osaka Sunday Change

All-Japan has announced a late change for this Sunday in Osaka: Tatsuya Matsufusa, who was to participate in the event, is now off, Flu. He was to have teamed with Hikaru Sato & The Bodyguard to face Rising Hayato, Izanagi & Black Menso-re. Aran Sano (Osaka Pro) is the replacement.
