On July 13th, the stars of DDT Pro-Wrestling head to Korakuen Hall as the promotion presents ROCK IN RING 2025.
There will be two major championship matches that will headline the event.
The KO-D Openweight Title will be on the line as the current champion Kazusada Higuchi defends his title against HARASHIMA. This will be Higuchi’s first defense since winning the title back on June 29th from Chris Brookes. Higuchi is in his second KO-D Openweight Title reign.
If HARASHIMA is able to defeat Higuchi, he will become an incredible eleven time KO-D Openweight Champion. He last held the title back in Jan. 2020.
The DDT Universal Championship will be defended as the champion Minoru Suzuki makes his third defense against Shinya Aoki. Aoki is a former KO-D Openweight Champion and has held numerous other titles within DDT Pro. One title he never held is the DDT Univeral Title and Aoki has a chance on July 13th to add that championship to his impressive resume.
Kaisei Takechi will compete in a special six man match as he teams with Yuki Ueno & Akito. They will face the trio of Daisuke Sasaki, Hideki Okatani & MJ Paul.
In addition, NJPW star Kosei Fujita will make his DDT Pro-Wrestling debut.
