Production

Background

The event featured eight professional wrestling matches that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.

Event

The show started with the ten-man confrontation of Sanshiro Takagi, Toru Owashi, Akito, Shinichiro Kawamatsu and Yuni who took on the team of Harashima, Antonio Honda, Takeshi Masada, Kazuma Sumi and Tomoya in a losing effort.

The first main card bout saw Daisuke Sasaki, Kanon and Bryan Keith picking up a victory over Tetsuya Endo, Yuki Iino and Rukiya in six-man tag team action. Next up, Yukio Sakaguchi defeated Hideki Okatani in singles competition in which was billed as Sakaguchi's last Korakuen Hall performance before his retirement which was scheduled for February 7, 2024. In the fourth bout, Mao and NJPW's Taka Michinoku outmatched Chris Brookes and Masahiro Takanashi in tag team action. Next up, Shunma Katsumata defeated Kazuki Hirata to win the DDT Extreme Championship for the third time in his career, ending Hirata's reign at 217 days and four successful defenses. Next up, Jun Akiyama, Danshoku Dino and Makoto Oishi defeated Hikaru Sato, Kazusada Higuchi and Ryo Kawamura to secure the second consecutive defense of the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship. In the semi main event, All Elite Wrestling's Konosuke Takeshita defeated Naruki Doi in singles competition. During the event, Shuji Ishikawa returned to DDT Pro-Wrestling.
