By: Ian McCord

On May 31st, former GHC and Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion Katsuhiko Nakajima held his first self-produced event titled XX STYLE ~IT’S SHOW TIME~ at Azalea Taisho Hall in Osaka.

The theme for the show was past, present and future, with wrestlers at all different stages of their careers performing at the event. The show included stars from Pro Wrestling ZERO1, Pro Wrestling NOAH, DDT and GLEAT such as Masato Tanaka, Shuji Kondo, Masakatsu Funaki, Shinya Aoki and Hayabusa.

The main event of the evening saw a preview of the ZERO1’s Fire Festival 2026 with opening night opponents Hayabusa and Katsuhiko Nakajima teaming up to take on Masato Tanaka and Yuko Miyamoto. The bout lasted for 28 minutes, with Tanaka and Miyamoto picking up the win after Tanaka hit Nakajima with his Sliding D finisher for the pinfall victory.

Before the start of the match, Nakajima had his entrance theme, “KICK START”, performed by musical artist K-FORCE on his way to the ring. Following the event, Nakajima took to social media to share that the entrance theme he’s been using since 2020 was composed by K-FORCE to commemorate his 15th anniversary as a professional wrestler.

From Katsuhiko Nakajima via X:

“My favorite entrance song, which I’ve been using since 2020: “KICK START” by K-FORCE. We finally got to make our entrance together. Actually, this song is a special track that K-FORCE—who’ve known me since my debut—wrote and composed for my 15th anniversary milestone.”
