All-Japan 5/29/2026 Results
All-Japan kicked off the Super Power Series 2026 Tour today in Tokyo, which will tun through mid-June.
Today’s event was held at Shin-Kiba 1st Ring in Tokyo and can be watched on demand on AJPW.TV.
The announced paid attendance was 337, a legit advance sellout.
There was a last-minute change to Match 2 due to Hikaru Sato being pulled off the event. Unspecified injuries (probably from getting beaten up too much in Pro Wrestling NOAH recently). Hyo Ogawa was the replacement.
Match 1: Ryuki Honda beat Yasutaka Yano.
Match 2: Dan Tamura & Hokuto Omori beat Seigo Tachibana & Hyo Ogawa (Independent/Freelancer). Tamura pinned Tachibana after a powerbomb.
Match 3: Go Shiozaki, Atsuki Aoyagi & Rising Hayato beat Xyon, Shotaro Ashino & MUSASHI. Shiozaki pinned MUSASHI. (For those wondering, Odyssey had to head back to the US so he probably won’t appear this tour. Probably non-visa-related travel time limits. He should be back again in the future)
Match 4: Kumaarashi beat Ryo Inoue.
Match 5: Yuma Aoyagi & Daisuke Sekimoto beat Yuma Anzai & Shota Kofuji. Aoyagi pinned Kofuji after THE FOOL.
Main Event: Kento Miyahara, Jun & Rei Saito beat Hideki Suzuki, Ren Ayabe & Talos. Rei Saito pinned Ayabe.
The next event is tomorrow at Koga City ES Central Sports Park Hanamomo Gym in Ibaraki. There will be no live broadcast. On demand later in the day.
New Japan 5/29/2026 Results
New Japan ran Day 9 of Best Of The Super Junior 33 today featuring Block A.
Today’s event was held at Tsubame Civic Gym in Niigata and can be watched on demand on New Japan World. You can also watch the first 2 matches FOR FREE on YouTube.
The announced paid attendance was 825.
Match 1: Tiger Mask beat Tatsuya Matsumoto. Afterwards, TM 4 gave his Niigata farewell to the crowd.
Match 2: Hartley Jackson, Ryohei Oiwa & Robbie Eagles beat Masatora Yasuda, Toru Yano & Daisuke Sasaki (DDT). Jackson pinned Yasuda after a senton.
Match 3: Dick Togo & Sho beat Gedo & Taiji Ishimori. Sho pinned Gedo.
Match 4: Yoh, KUSHIDA & El Desperado beat Zane Jay, Jacob Austin Young & Francesco Akira. KUSHIDA beat Jay with a hoverboard lock.
Best Of The Super Junior Block A (except Match 5 below):
Match 5: Block B: Hyo beat Yoshinobu Kanemaru.
Match 6: Master Wato beat Daiki Nagai.
Match 7: Robbie X beat Ryusuke Taguchi.
Match 8: Nick Wayne beat Titan.
Main Event: Kosei Fujita beat Valiente Jr.
Standings (Block A):
1-Titan, 5-2, 10 pts
2-Wato, 5-2, 10 pts
3-X, 4-3, 8 pts
4-Wayne, 4-3, 8 pts
5-Fujita, 4-3, 8 pts
6-Francesco Akira, 4-3, 8 pts
7-Jun Kasai, 4-3, 8 pts
8-Taguchi, 3-4, 6 pts
9-Valiente, 2-5, 4 pts (OUT)
10-Nagai, 0-7, 0 pts (OUT)
The top 2 advance to the Semifinals. With Titan again blowing a chance to perhaps clinch and Wato now in a tie for the lead, it means 10 pts is now the minimum needed to advance so Valiente is now eliminated and Taguchi would need tiebreakers to have any chance. In Block B, Hyo & Kanemaru both are now at 3-3, 6 pts, 2 pts off the lead (Sho & El Desperado).
Day 10 is tomorrow at Takaoka Techno Dome in Toyama with Block B. Live streaming on New Japan World will begin TONIGHT at 11 PM PT/2 AM ET.
BREAKING-Stardom News: Wrestler Suddenly Vanishes? (Updated x2)
Who knows if this is an angle, legit or her being a sore loser as always, but Stardom has a dilemma on their hand and now it’s affecting upcoming events…no Maki Itoh. She has seemingly vanished following losses at events this past week and her “disciple”, Kikyo Furusawa, has lost contact with her. Seemingly so has the promotion. And now they have been forced to make last-minute changes to Saturday’s event (and more besides this because Hazuki is now off the event too. AEW participation in the US) as a result. The original plan was for Hazuki & Koguma to face Maika & HANAKO and Itoh & Furusawa in a 3-way. Now it’s Koguma & Furusawa vs. Maika & HANAKO. However, if Furusawa finds Itoh in time it will instead be a handicap match with Itoh teaming with Koguma & Furusawa. Got all that? Actually care about Itoh’s latest stunt? (I sure don’t) And while nothing is definite yet Hazuki may be off Sunday as a result. If AEW’s Saturday TV show is live this week it’ll be at the same time as Stardom so no way Hazuki can make it back in time. But she should be back for the following event on 6/6.
More as it becomes available.
UPDATE: Stardom President Taro Okada has now confirmed Hazuki is off Sunday.
UPDATE 2: They are making contingency plans for Sunday in case of no Itoh. If is scheduled to be Itoh, Furusawa, Waka Tsukiyama & Rian vs. Ami Sohrei, Lady C, Hina & Kiyoka Kokatsu if Itoh shows up or is discovered. If no Itoh, it will be a handicap match.

DDT held the latest Super Japan Pro Wrestling event today, continuing the current Sanshiro Takagi Produced series of non-DDT participation events.
Today’s event was held at Ueno Park Outdoor Stage in Tokyo and will be available on demand on WRESTLE UNIVERSE Saturday. There was no live broadcast.
The paid attendance was not announced.
Match 1: Shota beat Miles Caru.
Match 2: Peruperu Oyakata (Antonio Honda) beat Da Pump Matsunoto.
Match 3: Marika Kobashi & Matsuzawa San beat Non Toraga & Riara. Kobashi pinned Roara after a sliding guillotine.
Match 4: Ken Ohka & Mac Panasonic beat Tanomusaku Toba & Hyo Ogawa. Ohka pinned Ogawa after Flame Spear.

TJPW News: US Tour Talk Event Announced
As successful as Tokyo Joshi Pro’s first Texas visit went earlier this year, apparently all did not go as planned coning home. That’s part of the description for a “debriefing” talk show event announced today, to be held on 6/23 at Loft9 Shibuya in Tokyo. Scheduled participation is Yuki Arai, Miyu Yanashita, Mizuki, Arisu Endo and Yuki Aino. There will be no matches. In addition to in person, it will be streamed on Twitcasting as a PPV for 1500 Japanese yen (around $9.50 US) but, as an apparent fundraiser to cover wrestlers’ losses from issues returning to Japan, you can also pay 2000 yen (around $13 US) or 3000 yen (around $19 US) and those will go to the performers to help cover losses. 3000 yen ticket buyers will get photos from the event as a bonus, but maybe limited to those in Japan. In addition to the live broadcast at 3 AM PT/6 AM ET on the date, it will be available on demand until 7/7. A Twitcasting.tv account is required to buy and watch, it is free to make but some features require payment. Not sure about availability outside Japan.

BREAKING: New Japan Ownership Changing (Updated)
Major announcement from New Japan today-it appears ownership of the promotion is changing again. According to the announcement, Bushiroad Corporation is transferring all of its ownership stake in the promotion to TV Asahi, which was already the largest shareholder of the promotion, with CyberAgent Inc. remaining a minority owner. In a statement linked to by the promotion, Bushiroad President/CEO Takaaki Kitani said-and this is loosely website translated-“
Thanks to these efforts, the Tokyo Dome event on January 4 this year recorded an attendance of 46,913, achieving a sold-out event for the first time in 28 years. Overcoming the challenges of generational change, young stars in their 20s and 30s are rising one after another, shining brilliantly in the ring. As Bushiroad, witnessing New Japan Pro-Wrestling grow so strongly and passing the baton to the next generation is a great pride in my life.
However, for New Japan Pro-Wrestling to make further global strides and continue its golden era, it is essential to maximize the use of its accumulated video assets and evolve into a diversified monetization business centered on a powerful distribution platform.
Above all, I am convinced that entrusting the future to the best owner—who has been our longtime partner and has supported New Japan Pro-Wrestling on terrestrial broadcasts—by returning Imperial Rule to TV Asahi, and by welcoming CyberAgent, who brings a fresh breeze through cutting-edge digital media, as our partner—is the best way to entrust the future.
To all the fans, and to the players and staff who have supported New Japan with their passionate battles, thank you so much for walking alongside Bushiroad until now. Your passion and cheers have been our greatest driving force.
Although it is no longer in Bushiroad’s hands, I can confidently say that the future of New Japan Pro-Wrestling is brighter than ever. As a passionate pro wrestling fan, I will continue to support the golden era you create.
Thank you so much for 14 years. Please look forward to the future of New Japan Pro-Wrestling.”
Here is a link to the full Bushiroad statement:

Meanwhile, here are translated comments from New Japan President/CEO Hiroshi Tanahashi:
“To all fans of New Japan Pro-Wrestling, and to everyone who has cooperated and supported us,
We have decided that Bushiroad Corporation will transfer our shares to TV Asahi Corporation and CyberAgent Corporation.
Bushiroad became the parent company in 2012, and through large-scale advertising campaigns and various forms of support, we have greatly developed New Japan Pro-Wrestling. I am filled with gratitude.
To repay this kindness, we will continue to work as a consolidated subsidiary of TV Asahi, with the support of CyberAgent, and together with the company-wide goal of significant growth for New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
Our mission remains unchanged to create the best rings and let everyone enjoy them. We sincerely appreciate your continued support and support.
May 27, 2026
Shin Nihon Pro-Wrestling Co., Ltd. President and CEO Hiroshi Tanahashi”
The promotion expects no changes to scheduled events or plans going forward. That should also mean no changes to the New Japan World streaming service. Also no mention of how/if this will affect Stardom.
More as it becomes available.
UPDATE: One thing is actually going to change, at least on on New Japan World…no more All Elite Wrestling. Only available to subscribers physically in Japan, all AEW content available on the service will be removed after 8/31/2026. Contract ending and will not be renewed. New episodes of Dynamite & Collision will stop being added at the end of June. THe promotion is directing fans to the new MyAEW service to watch subsequent new AEW content (it will be both free and pay-to-watch).
Injury Report: Being Hardcore Really Is Painful
Hikaru Sato may still be hardcore, indicated by his winning the GHC Hardcore Championship in Pro Wrestling NOAH Monday, but that doesn’t mean the former MMA fighter is immune to pain and it’s caused All-Japan some issues as they announced Sato is out of action. Unspecified injury. Out at least 2 weeks and the entire Super Power Series 2026 Tour. Card changes have been announced. It’s not yet known if this will affect the 6/15 NOAH event where Sato is to defend the title in a 3-way.
More as it becomes available.
