>NEOPHYTE SPOTLIGHT: Katsumi Inahata

>Inahata already had a career before this — as “Fire Katsumi” in JTO, debuting back in 2021. He left that promotion in August 2025, and the next month walked into NOAH’s dojo, choosing to throw it all away and start from zero under his real name.

>He “re-debuted” January 2, 2026, at Shinjuku FACE against Naomichi Marufuji — the very wrestler who’d coached him in the dojo — losing to a headlock stoppage. His first real win came just weeks later.

>Within a month of that, he pleaded with Eita to let him into that year’s Jr. Tag League. Eita agreed, on one condition: commit to rebuilding from nothing. He’s held to it ever since.

>[ZERO1] Nakajima Katsuhiko Revives “Daa!” with First Fire Festival Victory, Authorized by IGF: “‘Toukon Style’ Is One Part of My History”

>At Newborn ZERO1’s Tokyo Korakuen Hall show on the 7th, Nakajima Katsuhiko (38) defeated Tanaka Masato (53) in the “Fire Festival 2026” final to win the tournament in his first appearance. After taking possession of the “Fire Festival sword,” he drew attention by closing with the late Antonio Inoki’s signature “One, two, three, daa!”

>He won the fierce battle against Tanaka, a five-time Fire Festival winner, with a Northern Light Bomb. In ZERO1, it is customary to close shows by having the crowd chant “Three, two, one, ZERO1!” together, but Nakajima closed with the fateful “Daa!”

>Starting in November 2023, when he began competing in All Japan Pro Wrestling, Nakajima had promoted “Toukon Style,” and at the New Year’s Eve Yoyogi show that year, he shouted “One, two, three, daa!” He was sent a warning letter by Inoki Genki Factory (IGF), which manages rights including Inoki’s likeness rights, over the unauthorized use of the trademarked terms “Toukon” and “Daa!” The matter became a controversy, and in the end Nakajima apologized.

>>20964403
>When voices of concern rose from fans who remembered that time, Nakajima said on the microphone, “I have permission from IGF president Inoki Keisuke,” claiming that he had already settled matters with the IGF side. To reporters as well, he explained, “When you think of me, it’s ‘One, two, three, daa!’ right? I’m not a ZERO1 wrestler, and I’m here to destroy,” also invoking the famous phrase “There is no creation without destruction” from the late Hashimoto Shinya, ZERO1’s founder and the man known as the “King of Destruction.”

>On top of that, he emphasized, “A lot happened, but I have permission from President Keisuke,” and expressed his respect for Inoki. He also showed interest in continuing the “Daa!” going forward, saying, “A lot happened, but ‘Toukon Style’ is one part of my history. I graduated from it, but another option has been added to my repertoire.”

>Shun Skywalker’s future draws attention: domestic or overseas? When we tried calling him directly...

>Attention is gathering on the future of “Skywalker” Shun Skywalker.

>Shun began appearing in the Dragongate ring at the Korakuen show in November 2016, and was active as a top wrestler, including winning the promotion’s top title, the Open the Dream Gate Championship, three times. However, saying he would “return to the heavens,” he decided to leave the promotion. With his singles match against Homare at the Korakuen Hall show on the 4th as his final match, he said farewell to the Dragongate mat.

>Shun has a one-of-a-kind character and radiates a presence even within the pro wrestling world that sets him apart. There are various possible patterns for what comes next.

>One is full-scale participation in other domestic promotions. Last year, Shun energetically competed in many other promotions. At New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Aichi show in June, he appeared as “X,” the partner of Takagi Shingo and Tsuji Yota, causing a stir in the venue. Also, at NOAH’s Ryogoku show in October, he joined forces with OZAWA and appeared as a helper for the villainous army “TEAM 2000X.” He committed every kind of evil act and left his mark. It cannot be ruled out that promotions that highly value his presence and ability may reach out to him.

>A challenge overseas could also come into view. In recent years, Shun has traveled to the United States every year around WrestleMania Week in April to wrestle matches. He may be looking toward activity on the world level, like Tozawa Akira, a former senior from the promotion who is now active in WWE in the United States.

>>20970743
>Or perhaps he really has returned to the heavens. Setting aside the debate over whether such a world actually exists in the first place, it is probably not something he can easily come and go from with the casualness of returning home to Toki City, Gifu. After his last match on the 4th, he left behind a meaningful message: “Thank you, Homare. Thank you, this world. Thank you, Dragongate. Thank you, Shun Skywalker...” Could it be that this was the last time we will see him on the public stage...?

>In order to confirm his true intentions, we approached him directly after the Korakuen show on the 4th, and he scolded the reporter: “I told you I’m returning to the heavens.” After that, when we called the number usually used for phone interviews, there was an announcement saying, “This number is currently not in service.” Just where has the “Skywalker” gone?

he doesn't have anything distinctive. it's a bit early for him since it's just a year but nepotism doesn't help if you are just a guy

Hinata should eschew doing any wild and crazy stuff because he'll risk just looking like a second-rate version on his dead who has that stuff on lock. Maybe he should do some self-conscious "I'm a traditional puro" guy. He could do that gimmick seriously or spin it off into a comedic direction to contrast with his father.

>[NOAH] Naito Tetsuya Captures the GHC Heavyweight Title for the First Time! Complete Revival with a Huge Chorus of His Signature “De Japón!”: “I’m going to keep stepping into this ring.”

>At NOAH’s Korakuen Hall show on the 9th, challenger Naito Tetsuya (44) defeated Shane Haste (40) in the GHC Heavyweight Championship match and became the 51st champion.

>His first singles title match in about one year and 10 months, since losing the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship in October 2024, became a fierce battle in which neither man gave an inch. Naito countered a brainbuster into Destino, but his regular Destino was blocked, and Bomb Valley Death brought the match back to even footing.

>When Shane went from a sleeper suplex and aimed for Bomb Valley Death again, Naito countered with a reverse Frankensteiner. As Shane still continued to aim for the same move, Naito fired off a counter Destino, then a Corriendo Destino. Finally, he unleashed a swinging Destino and answered the huge “Naito” chants from the venue.

>Naito left New Japan Pro Wrestling in May of last year. Together with BUSHI, he formed “Los Tranquilos de Japón” and was active mainly on overseas mats. When he arrived in NOAH at Nippon Budokan on January 1 of this year, he immediately captured the GHC Tag Team Championship. After losing those titles, he defeated Kiyomiya Kaito in a challenger decision match at the July Osaka show and earned the right to challenge for NOAH’s top title, the GHC Championship. In the first domestic singles title challenge outside his home promotion in his roughly 20-year career, he seized the prize and stood at the center of the Ark.

>>20975009
>The man who had remained more attached than anyone to New Japan unexpectedly captured NOAH’s treasure. In the ring, where LTJ’s BUSHI and RYUSEI rushed in to celebrate, Naito took the microphone and said with a fearless smile, “There may be people thinking, ‘How long are those guys going to stay in a NOAH ring?’ but I’m staying in this ring. Because I’m the GHC Heavyweight Champion. My next match still hasn’t been decided, but at a time like that, it’s exactly those words, right? That’s right: tranquilo, don’t rush.”

>He declared, “These past seven months, pro wrestling in NOAH has been incredibly fun. I’ve ended up taking the top championship. I’m going to keep stepping into this ring,” and closed the show with a huge chorus of “De Japón!”

>Backstage, he also announced that he would not participate in the singles league “N-1 VICTORY,” which opens on September 12 at Korakuen.

>“Of course I’ll wrestle matches, but I think I don’t need to enter. Because the wrestlers, officials, and employees of NOAH all think we LTJ are in the way, right? Then they can decide the number-one wrestler in NOAH, and that wrestler can collide with me. Then maybe I’ll lose the belt and leave this ring. I have my own ideas, so I’ll take my time talking with the people involved in NOAH.”

>When Naito first began competing in NOAH, people from various sides had pointed out his poor condition, but he has finally made a complete revival. The ungovernable charisma has finally returned.

SUmi needs to slow down tanning beds, jesus fuck

Is there a deeper reasoning or story behind Taguchi getting this title match? Is Sumi and admirer of his?

>>20985645
>The stalwart of NJPW’s Jr. division was one of the first guests to be booked for the show so when Kazuma Sumi asked if he could defend the DDT Universal Title against a New Japan wrestler, Taguchi got the spot. Sumi has felt annoyed over missing out on the recent DDT Vs NJPW matches especially since NJPW have been on the winning end more often than not. But putting any ill feelings on the matter aside, he is also happy to fight Taguchi and use him as a stepping stone to the top of the Junior Heavyweight scene. The odd thing is Taguchi seems to be accepting his fate. He’s been the stepping stone before for Kota Ibushi and Kenny Omega so this scenario is nothing new to him.

>>20985540
It really is insane that he can do all that, look like that and sit here with a newborn at 52. What a chad
>>20985645
They teamed up before

>>20985649
they were against each other in a tag match years ago (3?) in njpw (there was a young lion oskar at that time kek)

oh wow, taguchi had a really really good match

>>20985667
When he's not bullshitting he can have a great one with almost anyone

>>20985670
I mean, he was joking all the time about being a stepping stone during the press conference so I expected him to play serious but at end let Sumi win since it was early in his defense road.
But makes sense, Taguchi experience can't be topped by a guy with just 3 years-ish of experience.

These niggas look like a very sexo tag team

Also, I lost track of what thread Im in

Girls are not screaming as like they did during Kasei's single vs Ueno. But might be too early.

>[NOAH] YO-HEY calls Soya a kappa-head and joins TEAM 2000 X: “Don’t call yourselves RATEL’S”

>At NOAH’s Korakuen Hall show on the 10th, YO-HEY (38), who had only just returned the night before, shockingly declared that he was joining the black unit TEAM 2000 X.

>YO-HEY injured his left knee last September and was sidelined long-term for 11 months. He returned at the Korakuen Hall show on the 9th, but in that return match he reignited his grudge with Tadasuke, the cause of his absence, leading to this singles match. With his Passion RATEL’S allies Soya Manabu and Iino Yuki watching, he went on the attack, including striking before the bell. When the enemy side tried to interfere, Soya and Iino stopped them, allowing him to seize the pace.

>But in the closing stages, after rough attacks mixed in with focused offense on his left knee, his movement stopped. Then the referee got caught up in an attack, and T2KX members rushed in, putting him in a major crisis. Soya and Iino entered the ring and it seemed he had been saved from danger…

>However, YO-HEY hit Soya and Iino with a betrayal dropkick. Then, after putting on the T2KX shirt handed to him by Yoshi Tatsu, he sent the referee flying and smashed Soya with a pipe chair, resulting in a disqualification loss.

>Amid heavy booing, YO-HEY took the microphone and severed ties with Soya, saying, “With that kappa-looking head of yours. Listen, I’m not fighting in Pro Wrestling NOAH to become some ‘monster tamer’!” He then laughed loudly: “People with weird kappa-looking heads like you lot have no right to call yourselves ‘RATEL’S.’ Because of you, Passion RATEL’S, and RATEL’S itself, disappeared from the Pro Wrestling NOAH ring. It’s all your fault! So from today, I’m T2KX.” With Soya sobbing behind him, he left with the T2KX members.

I watched the most recent Marvelous match and Kohei Sato was on it (lol) and at the end of the match he throws one of the sickest headbutts I've ever seen. It was tremendously loud.

>NEOPHYTE SPOTLIGHT: Hiroya Namiki

>Namiki joined NOAH’s dojo in March 2025, alongside Yuto Koyanagi, Hiroto Tsuruya, and Midori Takahashi — the same intake class. That October, he suffered a head injury serious enough that, for a time, it was uncertain whether he’d even be able to return to normal daily life. While he recovered, his three classmates debuted together that December at Korakuen Hall. Namiki wasn’t there.

>He didn’t give up. After nearly four months of recovery, he returned to the dojo and kept training. One of his biggest sources of strength through it all was his mother, who has an eye condition that will eventually take her sight completely. He’s said directly that he wanted to show her more than just a debut — he wanted her to see him become a GHC champion one day. He gritted his teeth and trained toward that.

>He finally debuted August 10th, 2026, at Korakuen Hall — eight months behind the classmates who started the same day he did — against Daiki Odashima.
