As one of the Oiwa fuckers, I still have this saved on my desktop.

Seems like Kasei involvement with NJPW, saying that he wants to fight Tana, is something both DDT and NJPW agreed to push. I don't mind the guy, he is decent even if he's even less than a part-timer, but they are moving too quickly with him but I understand why they are doing it.

buttfucking oiwa and telling him gedo doesn't know shit but don't worry i know how good you are oiwa-kun that's why i'm buttfucking you in the arse oooh ohoo ohhh ohhhhhh *cums*

After Tanahashi sold out the Dome, he has taken that crown from Naito again.

Naito will need to outdraw Tanahashi's retirement to be the most popular wrestler in Japan again.
And that's assuming the Humble Wolf doesn't become a Hashimoto level megastar instantaneously.

I cared about two teams until Ishii got injured so it's just MD4R (forma de KOB). I guess Despy and the CTE king might put on some spectacles. I want to care more about Oiwa and Uemura but the bookers have to give me reason, doesn't help that Oiwa is defacto pin eater for his team and Uemura could be as well.

>Hiroshi Tanahashi (49) of New Japan Pro-Wrestling gave the green light on the 20th for DDT’s Kaisei Takechi (27) to participate in next year’s January 4 Tokyo Dome event.
>Takechi, who is also active as a member of LDH JAPAN’s dance and vocal group THE RAMPAGE, made his first appearance in a New Japan ring at the House of Torture special event on the 19th at Korakuen Hall. Although he was unable to secure a win in the six-man tag match, he sent a message afterward, saying: "Even just once, I wanted to touch the ring with Tanahashi-san — I wanted to breathe the same air as him, and that feeling really stayed in my heart. If he calls on me, I’ll rush over anytime, anywhere."
>Responding to that, Tanahashi spoke after the Korakuen show the next day: "What I felt watching yesterday’s match was his passion for pro wrestling. He’s properly built his body, and he puts real feeling into what he does. So I think it would be fine to have Takechi compete at the Dome."
>With that, Tanahashi officially extended an offer for Takechi to appear at the January 4th Tokyo Dome event, where Tanahashi himself will face Kazuchika Okada in his retirement match.

>The biggest Wrestle Kingdom of all time on January 4 2026 has gotten bigger with two major additions set for the Tokyo Dome.

>November 20 in Korakuen at the World Tag League opener, one third of the NEVER Openweight 6 Man Tag team Champions YOH staged a sit in protest demanding that he, Master Wato and Toru Yano have the chance to defend their NEVER gold on the grand stage of Wrestle Kingdom 20. Chairman Sugabayashi eventually granted assent, and when YOH said backstage that his team would take on any number of challengers, the match has been made as the first ever Tornado Ranbo.

>The NEVER Openweight 6 man Champions were created at Wrestle Kingdom 10, and their tenth anniversary is being marked in this first time ever team ranbo. In the match, an as yet unknown number of teams will make their entrances at one minute intervals. Tornado rules mean there are no tags, and when one member of a team is pinned, submitted or thrown over the top rope, that entire team is eliminated, with the last trio standing the NEVER 6 Man Champions. Who will be victorious in this new twist on a Ranbo Tokyo Dome tradition?
