Event

Maruhan presents NOAH Jr. Grand Prix 2 ~Legacy Rise 2026~, Monday, Nov. 9, 2026, Korakuen Hall, Tokyo. The bell was at 6:30 PM JST, per NOAH. Open The Forbidden Gate lists an announced paid crowd of 1,562, a sellout. NOAH streamed it live on Wrestle Universe, per NOAH posts embedded by Monthly Puroresu. Only the main event has a time in the reports we read.

Results

The order follows Open The Forbidden Gate's list, with finishes for the Jr. Grand Prix matches and the main event from Monthly Puroresu. We did not find a time for any other match, and the sources do not say whether Fujimura's title was at stake against BUSHI.

Match notes

Naito vs. Kenoh. Kenoh came close more than once, per Monthly Puroresu, and BUSHI, Naito's Los Tranquilos de Japon stablemate, tried to interfere. Naomichi Marufuji kept him out of it. Naito hit Destino for the pin. It is his second defense, per Monthly Puroresu and Open The Forbidden Gate.

Fujimura vs. BUSHI. Fujimura tore BUSHI's mask off, per Monthly Puroresu's account, and BUSHI sprayed black mist in his face and pinned him. The champion is out of the tournament.

Akeem's debut. Sidney Akeem, a former Cirque du Soleil performer and WWE 24/7 Champion, beat Kid Lykos 1 in his first NOAH match, per Monthly Puroresu. Open The Forbidden Gate says Iino also wrestled his first match as a full-time NOAH member in the six-man.

What is next

Inamura and Kiyomiya meet on Dec. 6 at Korakuen Hall in a 60-minute Iron Man match. The winner challenges Naito on Thursday, Dec. 31, at NOAH "The New Year" Eve 2026 at Yokohama Buntai, bell 3 PM JST. NOAH says it will be Naito's third defense as the 51st champion.

The Jr. Grand Prix 2 continues on Saturday, Nov. 14, at Stella Hall in Osaka, where Kid Lykos 2 faces Tsunagu Sato, Hiroya Namiki faces Alejandro and Daiki Odashima faces Jun Masaoka, per Monthly Puroresu. For the Sato change, see our earlier story.

How we know

Source: Open The Forbidden Gate's results list for the full card, Monthly Puroresu's two write-ups for the finishes and the main event time, and NOAH's own notice for the Dec. 31 match. We did not watch the show. Open The Forbidden Gate's note says Sato's tournament match was against Alpha Wolf, which disagrees with NOAH's Nov. 3 notice. We used NOAH's version.
