The announced paid attendance was 337, a legit advance sellout.

UPDATE: One title match on 1/25 may be off. A scheduled All-Japan AJPW.TV 6-Man Tag Team Championship match may have to be postponed because there is a chance that Hikaru Sato, part of the challengers, will be unable to participate. Potential schedule conflicts. The promotion is working on a resolution.

UPDATE 2: In a response to the above post on social media, Sato apologized and explained he thought the event was on 1/23 (Friday) and didn’t confirm this afterwards, so until now he believed the event was on a different date.

UPDATE 3: Sato is now off but the match will go on as planned. Suwama is the replacement.

New Japan Pro Wrestling “BLUE JUSTICE 17” LIVE Results (1/18/2026)

A lot has changed in New Japan recently with the retirement of Hiroshi Tanahashi, the pending retirement of Tiger Mask 4 and more, but one thing has not…Yuji Nagata is still the self-proclaimed oldest member at 57 years old, and he’ll do his best today as well for his latest hometown event, BLUE JUSTICE 17. With the promotion’s first visit this year to Chiba Prefecture, Nagata gets to once again put on his own event with Nagata of course part of the main event but otherwise the event looks to be like a regular house show event, hopefully another successful one for Nagata.

Today’s event will be held at Sakura Civic Gym in Chiba and can be watched LIVE on New Japan World in Japanese. You can also watch the first 2 matches FOR FREE on YouTube. There are 7 matches and with a regular house show plan the running time will not go past 3 hours, I’d anticipate between 2-2 1/2 hours.

Today’s lineup:
Zane Jay & Tiger Mask vs. Kosei Fujita & Robbie Eagles
Katsuya Murashima, Master Wato & Yoh vs. Daiki Nagai, OSKAR (The Grouch) & Yuto Ice (Ice Baby)
Masatora Yasuda, Ryusuke Taguchi & El Desperado vs. Yoshinobu Kanemaro, Sho & DOUKI
Tatsuya Matsumoto, YOSHI-HASHI & Hirooki Goto vs. Hartley Jackson, Ryohei Oiwa & Zack Sabre Jr.
Shoma Kato, Yuya Uemura & Shota Umino vs. Satoshi Kojima, Taichi & Tomohiro Ishii
Gedo, Taiji Ishimori, Hiromu Takahashi, Shingo Takagi & Yota Tsuji vs. Jacob Austin Young, Francesco Akira, Great-O-Khan, Callum Newman & Jake Lee
Boltin Oleg, Toru Yano, Aaron Wolf & Yuji Nagata vs. Dick Togo, Yujiro Takahashi, Ren Narita & EVIL

Updates below will begin at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.

11 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Sakura Civic Gym in Chiba, Japan. Commentary will join after the opening video. Hiroyoshi Tenzan is today’s guest on commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The venue has a reported full capacity of over 4000 but I doubt it will be anywhere near that. What I can see looks mostly but not completely full, I’ll predict around 2500. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 1693)

The matches begin right after the opening video. None of the usual onscreen graphics today except for matches in the upper left corner.

Match 1: Zane Jay & Tiger Mask vs. Kosei Fujita & (a mustachioed) Robbie Eagles. 20 minute time limit

Hiroshi Tanahashi joins commentary for the main event.

Main Event: Boltin Oleg, Toru Yano, Aaron Wolf & Yuji Nagata vs. Dick Togo, Yujiro Takahashi, Ren Narita & EVIL. 30 minute time limit
Result: Boltin Oleg, Toru Yano, Aaron Wolf & Yuji Nagata beat Dick Togo, Yujiro Takahashi, Ren narita & EVIL. Wolf beat Togo. Afterwards, Wolf got to lead the closing promo for the first time although he seemed a little unsure about it at first. Pretty good Japanese though. Then he properly handed it over to Nagata to finish it up and send the hometown crowd home happy. Nagata brought Tenzan and a freshly-haircut Tanahashi (no more mullet) to the ring as a surprise to commemorate the anniversary of Tenzan’s pro wrestling debut. Tenzan clearly is still affected by injuries last year and was a bit unstable at times in the ring and moving very stiffly. (This was specifically for Tenzan’s 35th Anniversary in the ring) Nagata also said they will return to the venue, but due to its pending closing for upgrades/renovation it probably will not be for 2 years, however they will run other venues when they return to Chiba.

The next event is tomorrow at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo to kick off the Road To THE NEW BEGINNING Tour, the “official official” start to the promotion’s new year. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin at 1:30 AM PT/4:30 AM ET.

Dragon Gate Pro Wrestling 1/18/2026 LIVE Results (Updated)

Dragon Gate continues the Open The New Year Gate 2026 Tour today with their first visit to Tokyo this year, unusual because it’s both a weekend event and a morning matinee for their monthly mid-major event. In fact, it’s the first EVER such Sunday morning Tokyo event for the promotion! The event is highlighted by an All-Asia Tag Team Championship match as ISHIN & Yoshiki Kato, having won the titles recently in All-Japan Pro Wrestling, will defend them today against Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii, with the match being under PWF (All-Japan) rules and All-Japan referee Krohei Wada being the referee. In the main event, BIGBOSS Shimizu faces Kzy after Shimizu, recently returned from a nearly-year-long absence for potential disciplinary reasons, betrayed Natural Vibes right after his return and it’s built up to this showdown today.

Today’s event will be held at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo and can be watched LIVE on DRAGONGATE NETWORK in Japanese & English. You can also watch the first match FOR FREE on YouTube. As is usually the case here, there are 7 matches on the card and I would anticipate the running time to be a little longer than a normal Korakuen event, probably close to 3 hours (including a probable intermission in the second half).

Today’s lineup:
Ryoya Tanaka & Marcus Mathers vs. Strong Machine J & U-T
Ultimo Dragon, Daiki Yanagiuchi, Akihiro Sahara & Kazuma Kimura vs. Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi, Problem Dragon & Punch Tominaga
Homare & El Cielo vs. Kota Minoura & Jason Lee
Hyo, Ben-K, JACKY KAMEI, Riiita & Mochizuki Junior vs. YAMATO, KAGETORA, Dragon Kid, BxB Hulk & Susumu Yokosuka
Yuki Yoshioka & Dragon Dia vs. Madoka Kikuta & KAI
All-Asia Tag Team Champions ISHIN & Yoshiki Kato s. Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii for the titles. Match held under All-Japan/PWF rules with Kyohei Wada as referee
BIGBOSS Shimizu vs. Kzy

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 6:30 PM PT/9:30 PM ET. The live stream is scheduled to begin 15 minutes before the event.

6:15 PM PT UPDATE: Live update begin now.

We are LIVE from Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan. Commentary should begin soon. This is or may be a live GAORA SPORTS broadcast in Japan. Your hosts are Katsuya Ichikawa & Genki Horiguchi.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. The crowd is still filing in but it looks like a close to full capacity setup with extra chairs around the ring and in front of the bleachers. I haven’t been able to check what advance ticket sales are like but they are up against sumo today, however I’ll still predict they’ll do around 1200. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance was 1556, a legit sellout with standing room only overflow)

The matches should begin in 20-30 minutes. The opening announcements begin about 7 minutes before event start time.

The event begins at 6:35 PM PT/9:35 PM ET. Madoka Kikuta & his heel faction come out first for a heel promo. Notably missing? BIGBOSS Shimizu. ISHIN mentioning him gets interrupted by Kzy, who storms to the ring. The heels leave soon after leaving Kzy to finish the promo. He then brings out Strong Machine J & U-T for the Natural Vibes dance & song before their match. And with that…

The matches begin at 6:40 PM PT/9:40 PM ET.

Match 1: Ryoya Tanaka & Marcus Mathers vs. Strong Machine J & U-T. 15 minute time limit
Result: Ryoya Tanaka & Marcus Mathers beat Strong Machine J & U-T. Mathers pinned U-T after a 450 splash.

Match 2: Ultimo Dragon, Daiki Yanagiuchi, Akihiro Sahara & Kazuma Kimura vs. Naruki Doi (Independent/Freelancer), Toru Owashi (DDT), Problem Dragon & Punch Tominaga. 15 minute time limit
Result: Ultimo Dragon, Daiki Yanagiuchi, AKihiro Sahara & Kazuma Kimura beat Naruki Doi, Toru Owashi, Problem Dragon & Punch Tominaga. Yanagiuchi pinned Tominaga.

Ryoya Tanaka is now the guest on commentary, replacing Horiguchi.

Match 3: Homare & El Cielo vs. Kota Minoura & Jason Lee. 20 minute time limit
Result: Kota Minoura & Jason Lee beat Homare & El Cielo. Minoura pinned Homare after Golden Rose. Afterwards, Kato with microphone. The heels unmasked Cielo during the match and Kato taunted Cielo with his mask.

Match 4: Hyo, Ben-K, JACKY KAMEI, Riiita & Mochizuki Junior vs. YAMATO, KAGETORA, Dragon Kid, BxB Hulk & Susumu Yokosuka. 30 minute time limit
Result: Hyo, Ben-K, JACKY KAMEI, Riiita & Mochizuki Junior beat YAMATO, KAGETORA, Dragon Kid, BxB Hulk & Susumu Yokosuka. Hyo pinned KAGETORA after Samson Driver.

Kazuma Kimura is now the guest on commentary, replacing Tanaka.

Match 5: Yuki Yoshioka & Dragon Dia vs. Madoka Kikuta & KAI. 45 minute time limit
Result: Yuki Yoshioka & Dragon Dia beat Madoka Kikuta & KAI. Yoshioka pinned KAI after High Fly Flow. (Yoshioka is from Gifu just like the nam whose legacy it seems he will try to carry on, Hiroshi Tanahashi). Afterwards, Yoshioka with microphone. Sounds like an Open The Dream Gate Championship challenge issued to Kikuta. GM Ryo Saito hits the ring to make it official. That match will happen on 2/23 at Fukuoka International Center in Fukuoka.

Susumu Yokusuka is now the guest on commentary, replacing Kimura.

Match 6: All-Asia Tag Team Champions ISHIN & Yoshiki Kato s. Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii for the titles. Match held under All-Japan/PWF rules with Kyohei Wada as referee. 1 Hour time limit
Result: Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii beat All-Asia Tag Team Champions ISHIN & Yoshiki Kato to win the titles. Mochizuki & Fujii become the 129th All-Asia Tag Team Champions. Fujii pinned ISHIN.

Dragon Dia is now the guest on commentary for the final match.

Main Event: BIGBOSS Shimizu vs. Kzy. 1 Hour time limit
Result: BIGBOSS Shimizu beat Kzy
Shimizu has definitely slimmed down a lot during his absence and is much more ripped muscle-wise. Afterwards, his closing heel promo was interrupted by Shun Skywalker coming out. His full-face mask muffled his words on microphone a bit but he clearly emphasized he was challenging Shimizu to a match. (UPDATE: That match will happen on 2/5) Both heel factions got into a brawl as Ryo Saito returned to ringside and the fighting on both sides continued into the backstage area. Kzy rolled back into the ring with microphone to finish up the show. It sounded like Kzy was talking about leaving or breaking up Natural Vibes or something along those lines. But this moodiness and worrying was interrupted by Daiki Yanagiuchi coming out. He wants to join them. And after some brief debating, decision made-he’s in. They danced together to the Natural Vibes song to wrap up the event. Today marks the next step up for the young rising star…and in a funny moment, Akihiro Sahara came out wearing a reggae wig to join them.
He wants in too! And it looks like Natural Vibes now has 5 members as the youngsters join the faction and finish with good vibes to send the crowd home happy.

The next event is 1/24 at Act City Hamamatsu in Shizuoka. There will be no live or on demand broadcasts. No more broadcasts this month. Back to streaming on 2/1 for MEMORIAL GATE 2026 in WAKAYAMA.

Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling 1/17/2026 LIVE Results

Tokyo Joshi Pro really gets their 2026 going today with the kickoff of the 6th Max Heart Tournament. The promotion’s now-annual tag team tournament usually held early in the year, it’s a bracket-style single-elimination tournament featuring almost the entire roster, with this year’s event featuring 12 teams. 4 teams get a free pass through the first round and all Round 1 matches will be held today with the winners advancing to the Quarterfinals. Both teams I want to make the Finals-Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida and Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku-are in action today. Wasteland Pom Party lost in the Finals last year so hopefully it’s one better this year.

Today’s event will be held at Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama and can be watched LIVE on WRESTLE UNIVERSE and ABEMA (the new WRESTLE UNIVERSE live subscription package is required for the latter, the ABEMA add-on will not have on demand replays-that is only on standalone UNIVERSE). There will be no commentary. The event is a legit advance sellout. There are 6 matches planned total and the tournament matches have no time limit so this may be a longer house show event than normal, closer to 2 1/2 hours.

Today’s lineup (match order TBA):
Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Sarah Phoenix vs. Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Toga
Yuki Aino, Haru Kazaahiro & Mahiro Kiryu vs. Suzume, Arisu Rndo & Shion Kanzaki
Max Heart Tournament Round 1:
HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki vs. Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida
Raku & Ren Konatsu vs. Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku
Kira Summer & Chika Nanase vs. Mizuki & Uta Takami
Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao vs. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami

Refresh this page occasionally for the latest results.

Updates below will begin at 7 PM PT/10 PM ET. The UNIVERSE live stream is scheduled to begin 20 minutes before the event.

6:40 PM PT UPDATE: The live stream has begun. We should be going to the venue in 15-20 minutes although the UNIVERSE pre-start screen is showing a start time moved up 10 minutes. There is a DDT event at the venue after this today so they may need to finish up earlier than planned. (It didn’t start said 10 minutes early so that’s an error on the stream)

7 PM PT UPDATE: Live updates begin now.

We are LIVE from Yokohama Radiant Hall in Yokohama, Japan. There is no commentary.

The paid attendance will be announced after the event. It’s a legit advance sellout which, depending on the setup, should mean a minimum of 350. The venue’s full capacity for wrestling is just under 400. (UPDATE: The announced paid attendance-a legit advance sellout-was 273. Much lower than I anticipated)

The matches should begin in 10-15 minutes.

The matches begin at 7:15 PM PT/10:15 PM ET.

Match 1: Yuki Aino, Haru Kazaahiro & Mahiro Kiryu vs. Suzume, Arisu Rndo & Shion Kanzaki. 20 minute time limit. Oh, and Kiryu is still DDT Iron Man Heavymetalweight Champion so you know what that means…
Result: Yuki AIno, Haru Kazashiro & Mahiro Kiryu beat Suzume, Arisu Endo & Shion Kanzaki. Aino pinned Kanzaki after Venus DDT. Nobody tried immediately post-match to win the title from Kiryu…

Match 2: Miu Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Sarah Phoenix vs. Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Toga. 20 minute time limit
Result: Yuki Kamifuku, Wakana Uehara & Toga beat Mio Watanabe, Rika Tatsumi & Sarah Phoenix. Kamifuku pinned Phoenix after Fameasser.

Max Heart Tournament Round 1:
Match 3: Kira Summer & Chika Nanase vs. Mizuki & Uta Takami. No time limit
Result: Mizuki & Uta Takami beat Kira Summer & Chika Nanase. Takami beat Nanase with Koala Clutch. As a result, Mizuki & Takami advance to the Quarterfinals and will face Yuki Aino & Haru Kazashiro.

Match 4: Raku & Ren Konatsu vs. Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku. No time limit
Result: Max The Impaler & Pom Harajuku beat Raku & Ren Konatsu. Max pinned Konatsu. As a result, Wasteland Pom Party advance to the Quarterfinals and will face Miu Watanabe & Rika Tatsumi. Whoever wins that one could very well win the tournament.

Match 5: HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki vs. Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida. No time limit
Result: Yuki Arai & Mifu Ashida beat HIMAWARI & Shino Suzuki. Ashida pinned Suzuki with a German suplex hold. As a result, Arai & Ashida advance to the Quarterfinals and will face Yuki Kamifuku & Wakana Uehara.

Main Event: Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao vs. Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami. No time limit
Result: Miyu Yamashita & Kaya Toribami beat Shoko Nakajima & Hyper Misao. Toribami pinned Misao. As a result, Yamashita & Toribami advance to the Quarterfinals and will face Suzume & Arisu Endo. I figured if there was going to be an upset today, it would be here and that’s what happened. One of the usual big favorites is out. This could be the start-or continuation from the last couple months-of the impending big breakout year for Toribami.

Today’s event went much shorter than I expected, checking in at only 110 minutes.

The Quarterfinals are 1/25 at Ryogoku KFC Hall in Tokyo. Live streaming on WRESTLE UNIVERSE will begin on 1/24 at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.

In other news, it was announced that “YES! Wonderland”, the annual Golden Week blowout event traditionally held on 5/4 at Korakuen Hall, will return after a hiatus last year in favor of an Osaka event.

This was a free event outside of venue admission so there was no paid attendance announced.

There was a last-minute change to the event due to Takuya Wada being pulled off the card. Unspecified circumstances. Match 2 was changed as a result.

UPDATE: Injury Report-Munetatsu Nakamura may have been injured during this event. Neck. Out at least several weeks and will miss 1/31. Status for February and beyond TBD. This means a significant 1/31 change because Nakamura was supposed to face Spirit Of Ganbare World Openweight Champion Masaaki Mochizuki for the title. Shinichiro Tominaga is the replacement. The promotion is also offering refunds for purchased tickets as a result. On social media, Nakamura posted he should know more on his recovery after a doctor’s visit next week.

DDT News: Fans To Decide Takagi Spin-Off Future

An interesting announcement from DDT today-as part of the 3/24 event at Shinjuku Face in Tokyo there will be a survey among fans in attendance at the end of the event-Continue Super Japan Pro Wrestling or End It Immediately?

For background. Super Japan is the latest Sanshiro Takagi produced independent project separate from DDT, which he started a couple years ago after taking a step back from wrestling full-time and launching M&A Pro Wrestling, promoted by DDT but featuring no DDT wrestlers aside from Takagi on these events (essentially independent). After a few events Takagi ended the project and started Super Japan to replace it, following mostly the same premise. He usually does these events every 3-4 months or so.

The vote will be majority so we’ll see what happens after the 3/24 event. (That will be a Super Japan event)

For further background from DDT’s website (machine translated from Japanese): “On March 25, 1997, DDT held a pre-flag-raising match titled “Judgment” at Hibiya Radio City. At this box office, he declared that “if the support of the majority of the audience is not obtained, the flag raising will be canceled,” and after all the games, the spectators were asked whether or not to raise the flag. As a result, the majority of support was obtained, and DDT was officially launched.”
