Dragon Gate runs their monthly same-day doubleheader today with those who didn’t go to the US this week, with this month’s double being in Fukuoka. The first event is headlined by a title match as All-Asia Tag Team Champions Masaaki Mochizuki & Don Fujii defend the titles against Genki Horiguchi & Yasushi Kanda. No word yet if All-Japan will be sending one of their own referees for the match per PWF Rules but don’t be surprised to see Kyohei Wada calling the match.

There will be no commentary in the main stream while an alternate stream with wrestler commentary will also be available. There are 6 matches scheduled and even with the title match main event they can’t run too long because of the second event’s start time so it should top out at maybe 2 1/2 hours.

Jason Lee vs. Kazuma Kimura
Jiro Shinbashi vs. Punch Tominaga
Strong Machine J, GuC & @KEY vs. BxB Hulk, KAGETORA & Problem Dragon

New Japan Pro Wrestling “Death Vegas Invitational” LIVE Results (4/16/2026) (Updated)

New Japan returns to the US today for an El Desperado Produced event, Death Vegas International”, as part of WrestleMania Week festivities in Las Vegas. As the title suggests, the event focuses heavily on hardcore & death matches with both international and US participation including Desperado himself.

There has been a late change to the card due to Maki Itoh being pulled off the event. Visa issues. She will instead be a guest on Japanese commentary.

Today’s event will be held at the Horseshoe Casino in Las Vegas, NV and can be watched LIVE as follows: On Triller/FITE with a Triller+ subscription ($7.99/month, free trial available for new subscribers) in English, and as a PPV on New Japan World ($22.99) in Japanese & English. The Triller+ version includes unlimited on demand replays while the New Japan World version only includes replays until 5/31 (subject to change). There are currently 6 matches scheduled as the Triller lineup does not include a late addition, and based on yesterday’s events and the venue schedule I anticipate this event having a total running time of just over 2 hours.

UPDATE: You can also watch the first match FOR FREE on YouTube.

Today’s lineup (match order TBA):
Daisuke Sasaki & Gedo vs. Gringo Loco & Joey Janela in a House Rules hardcore match
KUSHIDA & YAMATO vs. Mansoor & Mason Madden and Alec Price & Jordan Oliver in a 3-way
Effy vs. Jimmy Lloyd & ISHIN in a 3-way hardcore match
