Kaisei Takechi Frustrated After Losing KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championships

By: Ian McCord

The KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championships were on the line when DDT Pro-Wrestling returned to Shinjuku FACE on March 11th for their All or Nothing 2026 event. In the main event of the evening, the team of Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Satoh challenged the champions Yuki Ueno, To-y & Kaisei Takechi for the titles in a hard hitting contest. 

The team of Takeshi Masada, Yuya Koroku & Daichi Satoh, also known as “paleyouth”, were able to defeat the champions in just over 18 minutes when Masada hit his Chikara KOBU Mukimuki on Takechi in the center of the ring for the 3 count. 

After the match, Masada had a some kind words for 2025 Tokyo Sports Rookie of the Year Kaisei Takechi: 

“Takechi, it might sound weird coming from me, but you’ve really grown. Our channels just clicked perfectly, so we might fight again somewhere. Until then, let’s both get even stronger and meet again.”

During his post-match comments, Takechi expressed his frustrations with Masada’s remarks as well as losing the KO-D 6-Man Championships stating: 

“I’m really frustrated. Two straight losses since the last one. That last loss was against Ueno, and I felt like I grew a lot. But today, when they said ‘Takechi is growing,’ it pissed me off a little. I’m frustrated and angry, so I want a rematch soon. If I get the chance. In terms of wrestling experience, he’s a huge senior to me, and I’m still a total rookie, so I don’t know if I should be talking back like this, but it just feels wrong to leave it like this.”
