Storylines

[edit]

The event featured professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portray villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[4]

Event

[edit]

The event started with three preshow bouts broadcast live on Noah's YouTube channel. The first one was the confrontation between Daishi Ozawa and Anthony Greene solded with the victory of the latter. Next up, Hideki Suzuki, Timothy Thatcher and Saxon Huxley picked up a victory over Yoshiki Inamura, Kinya Okada and Sean Legacy in six-man tag team action. In the third bout, Maya Yukihi defeated Sumire Natsu by submission.[5] Go Shiozaki made an appearance, announcing he was returning from injury, and competing at Majestic 2023.[6] The first main event bout saw Kenoh, Jinsei Shinzaki, Shuji Kondo, Hajime Ohara and Hi69 outmatching Naomichi Marufuji, Kaito Kiyomiya, Ninja Mack, Atsushi Kotoge and Seiki Yoshioka. The fifth match saw the Six-man tag team match in which Dralístico, Alejandro and Dragon Bane challenged Extreme Tiger, Lanzeloth and Alpha Wolf.

In the sixth match, Takashi Sugiura and Shuhei Taniguchi defeated Masa Kitamiya and Daiki Inaba to capture the GHC Tag Team Championship. During the event, after Sugiura and Taniguchi won the GHC Tag Team Championship, Sugiura stated that Sugiura-gun was not working and as such announced the disbanding of the stable.
