Kota Ibushi Guest Referees Street Wrestling Show

Kota Ibushi, who underwent a second surgery for complications from a fractured femur and believes a return to in-ring competition seems impossible, still vowed to return to pro wrestling. He served as the guest referee for a street pro-wrestling event organized by his Ibushi Pro Wrestling Laboratory, which may have been its first independent show. Ibushi's last match took place in October 2025, and he has continued making appearances for DDT Pro-Wrestling while also scheduled for a P.P.P. Tokyo show on November 26.
