Welcome to Puroresu Gate, a weekly feature where we review attendance figures of Puroresu and Joshi promotions in the most well-known venues in Japan.
This week, we are looking at the 1,800-seat Korakuen Hall. Known as the MECCA of Japanese Pro Wrestling, this venue is used by every Puroresu and Joshi promotion and is considered sacred ground for fans and wrestlers alike.
Pro Wrestling Noah is really beginning to build a lot of momentum in 2023 and this event was yet another example of the promotion being on the upswing. The highlight of the night was the retirement match of Junior Heavyweight legend Daisuke Harada.

For comparison, here is a past event held in Korakuen Hall!
Pro Wrestling Noah and DragonGate put on two amazing co-promoted shows in the past week but the second night was by far the best. This event was highlighted by Kenoh and Kota Minoura going up against Kaito Kiyomiya and Yuki Yoshioka in a spectacular high-flying main event!
