History
editIn 2008, the title became inactive after Daichi Kakimoto retired. It was reactivated in 2009 in order for Danshoku Dino and Masa Takanashi to have a nonuple winner takes all match at Ryōgoku Peter Pan.[1]
From 2010 to 2018, the title has been defended annually at the UTAN Festa event held at the Ōmori Station East Plaza in Ōta, Tokyo. It then remained inactive until November 2022 when DDT returned to UTAN Festa and Soma Takao defeated Chikara for the title.
